Political Tyranny and Religious Tyranny

We know the nature of cults and authoritarian systems. We are also concerned about the condition and direction of our nation. In the following video link, from D. James Kennedy Ministries, entitled “The New Tyranny,” listen for key words and phrases like:
“new orthodoxy”
“punish anyone who disagrees”
“fired for not using the correct pronouns”
“control speech”
“conformity”
“ostracize”
“child abuse”
Notice also the mental health concerns.
My book, The Heresy of Mind Control, shows the parallels of political tyranny to religious tyranny.

The Taliban, tyranny, and brainwashing.

This book contains segments about the Taliban as they were before the U.S. military and allies drove them out of power in Afghanistan in 2001, and before their current and tragic return to power in August 2021. They were brutal back then, and sadly even worse now. See how mind control (brainwashing) is a root of so many evils in our world today, one being the Taliban. The book contrasts these tyrannies with the good news of the Bible.

New book exposes deceptive trend

New book - The Coddling of the American Mind by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt. From the reviews I’ve read, this appears to be an excellent companion book to my book The Heresy of Mind Control. Each book, though different, shows the various aspects and forms of deception at work in our world, and the societal trends that are stifling critical thinking.

Healing from Cults & Spiritual Abuse

Spiritual abuse is much like emotional abuse and verbal abuse, and in fact spiritual abuse includes both of these as well. Spiritual abuse can be even more powerful and devastating because a Supreme Being is conveyed as the author of that which is perpetrated, and the subject is depicted as the one who is at fault. This is the nature of cults, and this book exposes the lies of this deceitful system and serves as a therapeutic tool of healing from cults.

radicalization and brainwashing

Brainwashing and radicalization of terrorists are essentially the same thing. The subjects are deceptively recruited and undergo a thought reform process that in turn drives their behavior. The same process takes place in cults in a form that’s also known as spiritual abuse.  Learn from this book how the radicalization and thought reform process is in stark contrast to the spirit of true Christianity.

The Bible and mind control

Mind control is another term for brainwashing. It involves deceit, control of information, and manipulative people who use such tactics as offering to meet needs, but then use guilt trips, intimidation, and threats to influence and even control the subject. These controllers even use (actually they misuse) the Bible by taking Bible verses out of context in order to deceive their subjects. This book shows how this is done, exposes the lies of this deceitful system and uses the Bible as a therapeutic tool of healing from cults.
