Pride deception
This article is sure to cause upset. If you are offended by it, then you should evaluate your life, and your action towards the deception that is at work in the world right now.
The false flag promoting pride is being stuffed down our throats wherever we go. Notice that I do not give it the name that woke adherents use for it – it does not deserve a capital letter in the word “pride”. The world wants you to feel guilty when you do not support their evil cause. Just because you are normal, you do not fit in with their evil agenda. Rather than them finding out where they went wrong, and correct it, they make you, the one who is sticking to the rule, to be the one who is wrong. For the moment, let us not even consider whether you are a Christian or not. If you do not support them, you are seen as the enemy.
We read of God’s original intention of the rainbow, just after the Flood:
11And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. 12And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. 14And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: 15And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. 17And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth. – Genesis 9:11-17
First, He gave it as a token of an agreement between Him and the Earth, that there will never again be a flood that destroys everything. Note that He tells Noah that He, God, will remember the promise He has made to them (the Earth). If anything, it speaks of an intention of God’s love and humility toward man. It is quite some way off the prideful association of man’s hate and haughtiness it has been changed into.
The devil can never create an original of anything. He always fakes. The original rainbow had seven colours. Seven is a number often used in association with God. Seven is the perfect number. The fake flag has six colours, and six represents the imperfection of man – falling short of the glory of God. Six is the closest the devil can get to seven. Even by one digit, it falls short of the glory of God. Paul describes this very well:
23For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; – Romans 3:23
Where the devil succeeds, even if he falls short by one digit, is to promote sin in the lives of people, saved or not. The sin in our lives makes us come short of God’s glory. So near, yet so far. The deceiver then continues down the path of man’s destruction, by bringing pride to the party, the very thing that led to his own fall:
13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. – Isaiah 14:13-14
The devil knows the Word of God even better than believers so and he is very aware of the next verse:
15Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
He knows his destiny and wants to take along as many people with him as he can.
18Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. – Proverbs 16:18
The flag used by the proponents of a world supporting everything that is anti-God is easily confused with the real rainbow, and this is where the deception comes in. God’s rainbow served as a sign of the covenant between Him and man. It brings restitution, a promise that what happened will not happen again. The devil’s counterfeit is a flag that is a covenant between man and the devil, and it leads to destruction.
The reality is that the devil only wants to destroy (John 10:10), and most of humanity is too stupid to see this, because they have been deceived. They do not want to see the truth and to be set free. Just so that people cannot claim they did not know the truth, because they do not read the Bible, please find below Paul’s explanation of man’s condition. This was already at work in his time, long before there was a woke movement. Today it has worsened by an unimaginable magnitude:
18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
28And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. – Romans 1:17-32
Conclusion
As you read about the reprobate mind (Romans 1:28) God has given people over to, I will leave you with what the Bible says about the woke movement we are seeing:
18Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. – Proverbs 16:18
Believers in Jesus Christ must do everything in their power to warn unbelievers of the coming doom and their resulting fate. It is not up to us to make them believe, only to present the opportunity for them to hear and read the truth.
