Radio host Dan Proft (who was raised Catholic and remains Catholic): "People say 'Oh, it's just a power play.' No, it's not just a power play; it IS a power play and that's what you should be concerned about! This, 'Oh, they're going to do this and they're not going to do that; it's just a power play.' The whole thing is to subjugate every institution and society and bring you to your knees. That is not an inconsequential objective.
"Who cares what people say when they behave the way that they do. Kamala Harris says she's Catholic; who cares. Dick Durbin says he's Catholic; who cares. That's irrelevant. Nancy Pelosi says she's Catholic. She always talks about praying for President Trump. That is a front they put up. These people hate Christianity. They worship at the altar of the state."

Followers of icons and dead saints try and get something out of the supernatural into their natural life.
“The symbols, the allegories, the imaginations that the world is so full of are designed simply to promote the Lie program,” says Jordan. “What does Satan tell Eve in the Garden? ‘There’s something that God knows that He doesn’t want you to know that I can tell you, and when you do, you get in contact with the supernatural (editor's note: nowadays that means "Lucifer"); you’ll get in contact with something that’s bigger than you are.’
“In witchcraft, for example, you’re communicating with the spiritual world, trying to get something out of it. Well, Satan has a plan, an enticement to get you involved in that and it’s all this 'hidden' stuff (editor's note: One of their favorite mottos is, "Hidden in Plain Sight," meaning, 'We're going to do our evil rituals to Lucifer in broad daylight in all forms of church business and entertainment').
“Now, God makes this all known. In Isaiah 14, when Satan’s original intent is identified for you--his original plan and strategy--there’s a five-point goal he sold to the other angelic host. Satan started at the top echelon and worked his way down.
“You’ve got a worldwide system that’s developing around that curse. An education system, a social system, an economic system, a political system . . . and now we’re ‘casting off the bands that God’s established.’
“When you study marketing, the whole idea is creating a need in someone they didn’t know they had yet. There are hidden meanings in all of merchandising. It’s all done subtly."
(editor's note: Isn't it interesting that in Ezekiel 28, God uses the word 'merchandise' to describe Satan's M.O.) Here's the passage:
[15] Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
[16] By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
[17] Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
[18] Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
[19] All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

“What did Satan do? He created a 'need' in others for him, but was the 'need' real?! NO, he had to trick them. He had to have a ‘secret’ reason for doing things to entice them in.
“When Satan comes to attack Eve, she doesn’t even have the basic knowledge of what God told Adam. Now whose fault would that have been? Adam didn’t do his job very well.
“In Verse 4, Satan says, [4] And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: That’s just a flat-out lie. But she’s not equipped to handle that because her knowledge base isn’t accurate. Here’s why it’s a lie: ‘for God doth know.’ God knows something you don’t know, Eve.
In the quote Satan gives to Eve, if you read the words, there are 46 words. When you see that phrase ‘your eyes shall be opened,’ the word ‘eye’ is the 33rd word in the quote (editor's note: 33 is the favorite number of Scottish Rite Freemasonry. Walt Disney has Club 33 inside Disneyland, Walt Disney World).
“ ‘And ye shall be as gods knowing.’ God’s got a secret knowledge out here, Eve, and He’s not telling you about it, but if you’re one of the initiated, you’ll know it.
“Thirty-three in the Bible is a number associated with illumination. You ever read in the occult about the third eye? You ever seen people going around with a third dot on top of their forehead or a little jewel up there?
"It’s said to be an ‘eye of perception.’ This is the ability to see into something and have knowledge that you couldn’t have any other way. It’s secret knowledge that you can only have IF you are in the initiated.
“Where you got to go to be initiated? Satan’s offering it to Eve: ‘I know something that God doesn’t want you to know and you can’t know unless you become ONE with me.’
“Ultimately, when the Antichrist and the system that brings him to power is manifested, it’s that MYSTERY (Mystery Babylon the Great). There is a secret purpose; this idea of secret wisdom and hidden understanding, and the gain you can get if you get it, that’s associated with Satan all the way through the Bible. It’s associated with his Lie program.
“What do you say about a lie? A lie can be 98 percent truth, but it’s the two percent that isn’t that kills you. You see, it’s the tares-are- hidden-with-the-wheat kind of a thing. The Lie program is all this good, good, good, but there’s that secret thing in it.

Here's an old article on the same topic:
“Isaiah 33:6 is a verse I used to keep posted on my wall: ‘And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.’
“Isaiah 33:6 is a verse I used to keep posted on my wall: ‘And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.’
“If you want the nation to be filled with judgment and righteousness, here it is.
“When you sit down today and you talk to someone out in the world, you have to start by teaching them the ABCs. Most of you were raised in a culture where everybody knew what the ABCs were. They might not have believed them, but they had a knowledge base in spiritual Bible things that people today don’t have.
“In Hosea 4:6, he told Israel ‘my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge,’ and it wasn’t because they couldn’t calculate and make chariots and build buildings. It was knowledge of God. They didn’t have the basic building-block information.
“Knowledge is important. Eve didn’t have the knowledge even straight in her thinking, so when Satan came along and offered her this SECRET knowledge, she couldn’t say, ‘NO, I know what the truth is.’ She’s over there dreaming up stuff, leaving stuff out—where’d she get that stuff about ‘I can’t touch it,’ for example? She made that up in her imagination.
“Notice in Deuteronomy 29:29, with God talking to Israel through Moses, everything they needed to know, to do everything God had for them to do, He revealed to them.

“Genesis 5:6 says, ‘And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.’
“That expression ‘the imagination of his thoughts,’ you have to understand there are the two sides of the way you think. You have a part of your thinking process that thinks thoughts. It’s the logical side where there’s facts and understanding.
“It’s two plus two equals four. It’s the way you understand things and it’s reason. That’s the realm of your thinking where truth resides, where reality resides, where the facts say ‘this is the way it is.’ That’s the part of your thinking that’s designed to be in CONTROL.
“You also have an imagination. That’s the creative side of your thinking. That’s the part where you have entrepreneurial kind of ideas. That’s where you have the pictures, and you can see yourself doing this or see yourself doing that. You can see something bigger than what reality is.
“Poetry and the arts come from there, that kind of thing. Now, that side of your life is where the Lie dwells. Because when you’re thinking something that’s not there, not on the table yet, it can be a good thing, something you can accomplish . . . I often think about people who paint. They put the canvas up there and they see something. A sculptor sees something in a big piece of marble; he just gets rid of all the trash around it.
“The creative side can be good but that’s also the side where the Lie exists. That’s the part of your thinking where the Lie system gets its hook.”
*****
The word ‘vanity’ in Romans 8:20 means ‘empty.’ When all the substance is gone out of it, you create a vacuum. Satan comes along and says, ‘I’ve got a plan,’ and it’s sucked right in. People think they’re wise but have become fools.
“Satan knows that every time you choose verse 21 (‘they glorified him not as God’), you say, ‘He’s not going to be the one who runs things; I’m going to be the one.’
“Now whose philosophy did you just follow? You just bought into Satan’s Lie. You just said your ideas are better than God’s ideas and your ‘truth’ is better than God’s truth.
“The Lie is you can do it your way: ‘I’ll run my life.’ You know what that is? That’s an imagination. That’s a vain, worthless, senseless, foolish imagination but you have it anyway. We all do that and if those imaginations aren’t controlled by the truth of God’s Word . . . Satan works in that program.”
