I cannot stress enough how good, and how important this is.
In Stephen’s presentation, he uses the illustration of a wild pig trap as an analogy to how we are lured into the blast zone of a dialectical bomb. Its a worthy and effective analogy.
The one below we feel is as good but perhaps for a slightly different aspect of how the COMINTERN states wage information war on us all. The “Two weeks to flatten the curve” is the easiest example, but there are many.
I see this playing out and have recognized it as destructive to the family since the late 1970s.
It helps to have a Biblical understanding of the fall, original sin, and that the heart of man is desperately wicked and deceitful above alll things. Jeremiah 17:9. Sun Tzu is not wrong to advocate “know your enemy.” But Jeremiah tells us to KNOW ourselves.
When we know our enemies AND we know ourselves, we cannot be surprised that such evil walks among us. So many people I know seem blissfully unaware of the dynamic at play here.
For my 7th grade, very first “term” paper for some reason I chose the topic of China’s Civil War. Point being, that the attack on the West has always — in my mind — been the work of Satan’s minions, in whatever form it takes. I recognize it as the Work of the Devil because every goal it has (the attack) is to UNDO THE WORK OF CHRIST. Only recently (in the past 10 years) have I understood the concept of the dialectic, and that, thanks to Vlad and Stephen Coughlin. So, understanding the concept of the dialectic — is useful and aids/confirms what I already know and gives me (and others) the language by which to articulate what I/we know intuitively — and this may redound to the benefit of others .
Whatever is not of God is of the Evil One. I have no trouble calling out evil for what it is.
Some people say, “Well, evil is just a theological term.” I say, God is the decider of which terms perfectly describe/fit the human condition. I say, subordinate your corrupt reason to what God says; and pray for a heart of wisdom.
