What is this worldwide surge of Marxist-socialism, and of Islam?

 

What is driving the worldwide surge in the popularization of Marxist-socialism, and the Islamic religion, (the voluntary self-subjugation and acceptance of political and religious despotism), Globalization (“One World-ism”), the uncontrolled immigration of Muslims, the rise in Antisemitism, the murders, attempted murders and assassinations of conservatives (traditionalists and Christians) who do nothing more than speak their mind?

This popularization of Islam and Marxism has led the world to a new and exceptionally dangerous round of wars and rumors of war. On the surface it might appear that the world is fighting over crude oil, territorial rights and claims, human rights issues and climate issues. But what is seen by the eye is not the driving force – it is the result of a much greater and more insidious ambition – world domination through a One World Collective headed by powerful forces claiming to be the world’s savior.

This organization claims to be the benefactor of humanity’s equality, fairness, a cleaner earth, prosperity for all people, global peace, the elimination of hunger, disease, poverty, and want, where all life can thrive. A world free of fear and violence. A world with universal literacy. A world with equitable and universal access to quality education at all levels, to health care and social protection, where physical, mental and social well-being are assured. A world where we reaffirm our commitments regarding the human right to safe drinking water and sanitation and where there is improved hygiene; and where food is sufficient, safe, affordable and nutritious. A world where human habitats are safe, resilient and sustainable and where there is universal access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy.

A world of universal respect for human rights and human dignity, the rule of law, justice, equality and non-discrimination; of respect for race, ethnicity and cultural diversity; and of equal opportunity permitting the full realization of human potential and contributing to shared prosperity. A world which invests in its children and in which every child grows up free from violence and exploitation. A world in which every woman and girl enjoys full gender equality and all legal, social and economic barriers to their empowerment have been removed. A just, equitable, tolerant, open and socially inclusive world in which the needs of the most vulnerable are met. A world in which every country enjoys sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth and decent work for all. A world in which consumption and production patterns and use of all natural resources – from air to land, from rivers, lakes and aquifers to oceans and seas – are sustainable

The forgoing can be found in the documents of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, a 15-year global framework, initially known as Agenda-21 which was promulgated at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (Earth Summit) held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from June 3 to June 14, 1992.

But the ideological origins of Agendas 21 and 2030 go back even further to 1946 when UNESCO’s first Director. General Julian Huxley. Announced “the emergence of a single world culture” by transferring “full sovereignty from separate nations to a world organization.” (The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, a specialized agency of the United Nations with the aim of “promoting world peace and security through international cooperation in education, arts, sciences and culture”. By 2011 it had 194 member states and 12 associate members, as well as partners in the non-governmental, intergovernmental and private sector. Headquartered in Paris, France, UNESCO has 53 regional field offices and 199 national commissions. UNESCO was founded in 1945 as the successor to the League of Nations’ International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development goes on to promise a world free of poverty, hunger, disease and want, where all life can thrive. We envisage a world free of fear and violence. A world with universal literacy. A world with equitable and universal access to quality education at all levels, to health care and social protection, where physical, mental and social well-being are assured. A world where we reaffirm our commitments regarding the human right to safe drinking water and sanitation and where there is improved hygiene; and where food is sufficient, safe, affordable and nutritious. A world where human habitats are safe, resilient and sustainable and where there is universal access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy.

A world of universal respect for human rights and human dignity, the rule of law, justice, equality and non-discrimination; of respect for race, ethnicity and cultural diversity; and of equal opportunity permitting the full realization of human potential and contributing to shared prosperity. A world which invests in its children and in which every child grows up free from violence and exploitation. A world in which every woman and girl enjoys full gender equality and all legal, social and economic barriers to their empowerment have been removed. A just, equitable, tolerant, open and socially inclusive world in which the needs of the most vulnerable are met.

A world in which every country enjoys sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth and decent work for all. A world in which consumption and production patterns and use of all natural resources – from air to land, from rivers, lakes and aquifers to oceans and seas – are sustainable adopted in September 2015 by 193 UN member states, centered on 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with 169 targets and over 230 indicators. It is not legally binding, but countries are expected to take ownership and follow up on progress to achieve the goals by 2030.

However, these lofty goals and promises do not come without a cost. The enormous financial cost is estimated to be around $5.4 trillion annually. But that pales in comparison to the human toll in terms of loss of freedoms, creativity and future potentials. Ironically, this organization has produced a short 8-minute video proclaiming “you will own nothing and be happy with it!” There is a lot of truth in the statement that if the United Nation’s Globalists-Socialists-Marxists-Communists have it their way, you WILL OWN NOTHING!

Common sense tells even the dullest of us that nothing of this magnitude cannot be self-managed. Laziness and greed will rule the masses unless it is heavily monitored and strictly enforced. And the truth is that you will continue to work under the scrutiny of a district official who will dictate where you work, how much you earn, what you wear, what you eat and when you can do these things. (Doubt it? Look at China for the most egregious example or Sweden for the experimental version).

Now back to our initial question: “What is driving the worldwide surge in the popularization of Marxist-socialism, and the Islamic religion?” which is really three-questions-in-one:

#1. What is driving the popularization of Marxist-socialism – and how is it being accomplished. First, this is a fabricated name. There is no such name. I use this name as a ‘broad brush’ to include the variants of Communism and Socialism. Socialism, according to the founding documents of Communism, Socialism is the simple first steps to Marxism and Communism, and once Marxism is established Socialism is to be discarded and Communism is the ultimate goal of Marxism. (Marxism, to recap, serves as the foundation for communist ideology, but not all forms of communism strictly adhere to Marxist principles. Various interpretations and adaptations of Marxism have led to different schools of thought within communism, such as Leninism and Maoism.

In summary, while Marxism is a theoretical framework that critiques capitalism and advocates for a revolutionary path to socialism, communism is the practical application of these ideas aimed at creating a classless society.)

Let me assure you that no matter how gentle or beneficial these systems have been made to sound by calling them by other names such as UNESCO, Agenda-21 or Agenda-2030 and by promising outrageously unattainable ‘sustainable goals’, it is a lie rooted in the second half of our initial question. Make no mistake. Communism and all its variants, Socialism, Marxism, Leninism, Maoism, etc., are the arch enemies of Christianity, Conservatism (which is rooted in Christianity) and Israel (and all Jews, everywhere).

#2.  What is driving the popularization of the Islamic religion – which claims to be a religion of order and peace. Although Islam is a religion of fanatical, theocratic and despotic order, it is not a religion of peace. Islam, like its evil twin, Communism, only desires complete global domination as a theocracy (a form of government where religious leaders hold an unyielding and unforgiving political power; often believing their authority comes directly from a deity or divine guidance. Theologically, Communism and Islam are in opposition to one another. But a strange and often overlooked convergence of political Islamism and Communism reveals how two seemingly contradictory ideologies – one an atheist, materialist framework born of the industrial age, and the other a dogmatic, faith-based system rooted in absolute obedience have historically aligned to advance shared political goals and reshape global power structures. The irony of an atheist system like communism teaming up with a long-standing religion to advance shared political goals and for the religion to spread its influence is clear to see. While this doesn’t happen in places like China, Gulf countries, or Islamic states where one suppresses the other.  This parallels the increase in Islamic antisemitism in the West, bringing out similar biases against Jews from Marxist perspectives.

It is said that Islam was promulgated by the Prophet Muhammad in Arabia in the 7th century. But the foundational roots and ideology of Islam can be traced to the two sons of Abraham and Sarah, 1960 B.C. (Old Testament figures) and the birth of their sons, Ishamel, who was the son of Abraham and his handmaiden Hagar (around 1947 B.C.) and Issac (1860 B.C.) the child of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.

A separation that began inside Abraham’s household therefore became historically significant because the two branches of Abraham’s family developed separately – one is known as the Hebrew-Jewish nation and the other as the Arab nations. One Jewish and the other Islamic. And they have been in some sort of conflict ever since their founding. Although, we should be careful about saying that every later conflict between Israelites/Jews and Arab peoples is directly described by Genesis as an inherited “hatred” between Isaac and Ishmael (as the biblical text does not make that sweeping statement). But it is an evidentiary fact that Arabs have been in conflict with the Jews and the Jewish nation and it has been the stated goal of most Arab nations to ‘wipe Israel of the face of the earth”.

The dynamic between the Arab world and the State of Israel has largely been marked by overt hostility. There have been periods of peace and cooperation, notably after the signing of peace treaties such as the Camp David Accords in 1979 between Israel and Egypt, and the peace treaty with Jordan in 1994. Additionally, the Abraham Accords in 2020 marked a significant step in normalizing relations between Israel and several Arab states. Israel has since made peace with a number of Arab countries. Still, intense hostilities persist with several Arab nations unwilling to recognize Israel’s sovereignty or right to exist.

#3. And the third and cumulative question, “why the worldwide surge in the popularization of Marxist-socialism, and the Islamic religion, (which is the voluntary self-subjugation and acceptance of religious or political despotism):

The answer to this question is two-fold. One is it that the intended purpose by both the Marxist-Globalists and the Global-Islamist is Global domination.

The general public of world populations have been skillfully been conditioned to accept the dominance of these radical ideologues by some of the oldest tricks in Satan’s handbook of deception. Put very simply: Create a problem – point out the problem – offer the only solution to the problem. Of course the problem the have created is far more intricate, far more complex, far more destructive and far more intractable than a simple description.

For example: Immigrate into a target country and infiltrate to obtain a significant role in that country’s education system, roles in government, in healthcare, in their defense systems, the military, in their financial systems, in science and in the media (too name some of the primary roles). Then from each perch of leadership and influence implement something akin the ‘Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals’. (Although a practical manual for organizing ordinary people into a political or community movement capable of challenging established power. Alinsky’s emphasis is more on organization, power, strategy, pressure, and mobilization in order “to create a problem – point out the problem – exacerbate the problem – offer “the one and only viable solution”.

For example: They decry the country’s education systems as systemically racist, inefficient and unfair to ‘minorities’, and in need of radical reform.

• Then they Identify people who share or will adopt this grievance or problem.
• They build relationships and trust before attempting to organize them.
• Determine who actually has the authority to make the desired change.
• Identify the organization’s own sources of power—especially numbers, unity, organization, and the ability to create political or social pressure.
• Begin with a specific, understandable objective.
• The issue should matter personally to the people being organized.
• Recruit participants and develop leaders.
• Establish communication networks and a decision-making structure.
• Turn a collection of concerned individuals into a coordinated group capable of acting together.
• Determine the opponent’s goals, strengths, weaknesses, resources, allies, and vulnerabilities.
• Understand the opponent’s dependence on public opinion, political support, money, institutions, or reputation.
• Look for places where pressure can produce concessions. tactics should be purposeful, timely, flexible, and understandable.
• A tactic should produce movement toward the objective rather than simply generate attention.
• Tactics may include demonstrations, public campaigns, negotiations, boycotts, publicity, petitions, or other forms of organized pressure. “Power is not only what you have but what the target thinks you have.”
• Use your opponent’s own rules or procedures against them when possible.
• Ridicule can be an effective weapon because it can undermine an opponent’s authority or image.
• Keep the pressure on. Don’t give an opponent time to regroup unnecessarily.
• Personalize the conflict. People respond more strongly to identifiable individuals and institutions than to abstractions.
• Use tactics that ordinary people can understand and participate in. Don’t become predictable. Surprise can prevent an opponent from preparing an effective response.
• A successful tactic should reinforce the organization and its members. Keep the objective in sight. Tactics are means to an end, not ends in themselves.
• Once in control, ‘dumb down’ the education system until it produces little in the way of real educational value. An education that is depleted of a nation’s history and legacies; ineffective or useless literary skills; basic-to-no math skills; no knowledge of roles in government, in healthcare, in their defense systems, the military, in their financial systems, in science and in the media. This may take decades to achieve, but the result is a high popular demand for the government to solve the conundrum of failures that are in higher demand by an ignorant, selfish and destructive populace.

These are the tactics of the American Democrat party and the Democrat socialist initiative – Antifa, Black Lives Matter, George Soros and the Democrat Party.

Coincidentally, a made for television series reflects this transformation to a failed United States. A show which was produced and shown in 2023-2026, reflects the status and conditions of the U.S. Government, the FBI, the CIA and the U.S. Military following the transformative Marxist-style Obama years in the White House and the disastrous years of, what some people consider “the seditious governance” of Joe Biden.

Lines from one of the actors cast as a billionaire businessman and money laundering immigration attorney with ties to a drug and child trafficking Cartel, and was apprehended by the CIA, goes like so:

“The first sign that an empire is failing is when the people question the institutions the empire was built on. The structure of government, the churches, the schools.

 “They reject God because the ‘emperors’ begin believing they are God. And the people become so rich that everyone believes they are an emperor as well. And too good to do the jobs that built the empire in the first place. So they outsource those jobs, and they open their borders to allow people desperate to do all the other jobs the other people are too rich to do.

 “Then comes the guilt for all this wealth. But still the empire thrives. And now everyone questions their wealth. Then they question themselves. Then they reject everything that built the empire to begin with. They destroy their own symbols, and attack themselves like a cancer. They attack the people who protect the empire and attack you for protecting it.

(And by the way, President Donald Trump, his cabinet, staff is now attempting to stymie and correct the U.S. trajectory into Marxist ruin).

These same tactics and scenarios have been applied to every aspect of the American way of life and has infiltrated every institution, including our churches in our once great nation. (Please see the infiltration through the I.C.L.E.I.) Now you know, in brief.

So what are you to do? Many pundits, both secular and religious, suggest that we get involved in politics for our national survival. This could be a good idea, also at some level. But for the Christian, our faith and the Bible will define our politics. Besides, the Bible clearly states that “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places. (Ephesians 6:12).

1 Peter 1 tells us that you and I “reside as strangers, scattered throughout…who are chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with His blood.” Furthermore, in John 17:14–16: Jesus says that we, as believers, are “not of the world” even though we are still in it, and He asks God to keep them from evil. And again Romans 12:2 teaches we, as Christians, are not to be conformed to the world’s patterns but to be changed into the likeness of Christ by renewing our minds. And this will never be adequately accomplished just by going to church, saying the largely ineffective ‘sinner’s prayer’ and forming our own religious exclusive conclave. As Jesus puts it, to follow Him, we must be willing to forfeit our former life and worldly attachments. This means prioritizing our relationship with Him over material possessions and personal desires. (Please see Ephesians 4:22-5, Hebrews 12:1-3, Peter 1:3-9).

Let me put this simply and another way. As a Christian you and I must really follow Jesus, doing what He has demonstrated and commanded just the way He demonstrated it and commanded it – leaving the results to Him. No excuses. No doubting. No innovating. You and I cannot be like Jesus while acting otherwise – and to think otherwise is complete folly (another way of saying insane or stupid).

We are here on this earth – better yet – we have been placed here on this earth according to God’s foreknowledge and in accordance with His Great Plan and Eternal Purpose. We are here for a short time but with an Eternal Purpose. Our time is short and nothing else matters. Not politics, not philosophies, not sufferings, poverty nor earthly wealth. Only Christ and His Great Message of the Gospel.

Now. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord – without “any shadow of turning”.

(From BibleHub.Org). The Bible clearly expresses the immutability of God—His unchanging, consistent nature—in numerous passages. James communicates it like this: “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” (James 1:17, New King James Version).

 With unique expressions such as “Father of lights” and “no shadow of turning,” James focuses on God’s creative power over the heavens and the earth (see Genesis 1:14–18; Job 38:4–15, 19–21, 31–33; Psalm 136:4–9; Jeremiah 31:35). These phrases are astronomical references to the variations of light intensity and shadows cast by the sun, moon, planets, and stars. The celestial bodies constantly move, revolving in space, casting “shadows of turning” as the light they produce shifts, fluctuates, and is eclipsed.

 Each day as the sun rises in the east, it casts long, westerly shadows. At the sun’s full midday peak, the shadows disappear and then begin to turn toward the east as the direction of light pivots. At night the shadows are deepest but still turning and shifting with the moon’s phases. The shadow of turning may also refer to the variations of light and shadow caused by the changing seasons, as the earth turns on its axis and the sun’s distance and direction alter.

 The variable lights and shadows cast by the heavenly bodies contrast sharply with God’s unaltering character. We perceive the sun’s light in varying degrees, but the sun is always shining. The same principle is true of God. In a spiritual sense, “God is light” and “in him there is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5). Because He is the Father of lights, there is no dimming, darkening, or shadow of turning with God. James asserts that God’s goodness is demonstrated by the fact that He does not change. God created the universe with its continually varying conditions, yet He remains eternally the same (Psalm 102:27; Hebrews 1:12; Malachi 3:6). The same can be said of Jesus Christ (Hebrews 13:8).

 There is no shadow of turning with God’s character. His love and faithfulness are constant (Psalm 89:2; 136:1–26; 2 Timothy 2:13). He is forever perfect (Deuteronomy 32:4; Matthew 5:48; 2 Samuel 22:31; Job 37:16) and holy (Isaiah 6:1–5; 1 Samuel 2:2; Revelation 4:1–8). His love for His children never fails (Romans 8:38–39; Jeremiah 31:3; Hebrews 13:5; 1 John 4:8).

 There is no shadow of turning with God’s purposes and promises. The author of Hebrews explains that God “bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind” (Hebrews 6:17, NLT). God does not lie or change His mind (Numbers 23:19; 1 Samuel 15:29). The proverb writer declares, “You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail” (Proverbs 19:21, NLT). The Lord always accomplishes His will and keeps His promises (Psalm 145:13).

 There is no shadow of turning with God’s Word: “The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever” (Isaiah 40:8, NLT). His eternal Word “stands firm in the heavens” (Psalm 119:89). The Lord’s Word never returns “empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:10–11).

 Because there is no shadow of turning with God, we can put our whole trust and faith in Him. He is a good Father whose plans, actions, and dealings in our lives are always morally consistent with His nature and His Word. James taught that tests and trials ultimately serve a good purpose in our lives (see James 1:2–18). Even Paul’s thorn in the flesh was a good gift from God (see 2 Corinthians 12:1–10). When difficulties and temptations arise, we must not let the shifting shadows obscure our confidence in the Father of lights.
