College Students
John Witherspoon (02/05/1723 - 11/15/1794) was a signatory of the United States Declaration of Independence as a representative of New Jersey and was a clergyman in the Presbyterian church and the President of the "College of New Jersey" which later became "Princeton University." John Witherspoon was a God fearing man who evacuated the college on November, 1778, as the British forces neared. As a result, John Witherspoon suffered financial loss. Besides serving in over a 100 committees in Congress and being the head of the Board of War, Dr. Witherspoon defended the position that a minister has the right to hold public office when the State of Georgia wrote its third Constitution in 1798.

75 to 90 percent of students, who grew up in Christian homes, leave the church when they go off to college or loose their faith. Unfortunately, a lot of the blame rests with the church and family. Most students who grew up in the church are very ignorant of the Bible, philosophy, apologetics and theology (see Hosea 4:6). To quote Dr. Robert A. Morey (top theologian & apologist) from his book titled A Christian Student's Survival Guide (Ten Campus Curses):
They do not know what they believe or why they believe it. They do not know anything about doctrine. Why?
- Anti-intellectualism from the 1920s
- Anti-creeds/confessions/catechisms
- Anti-social/political concerns
- The search for personal peace
- Entertainment-centered services
- Baby-sitting youth ministries
- Stupid Sunday Schools (S.S.S.)
We have a generation of cowards that are politically correct--this is not Biblical Christianity (see Ephesians 6:10-18). In Matthew 7:1, Christ was referring to the hypocrisy of the Pharisees, not against making righteous judgments. Christ taught to "judge righteous judgment" (John 7:24), identify and reject false prophets (Deut. 18:21, 22; Matt. 7:15-23), judge individuals who say they are Christians and live contrary to the Word of God (see Galatians 5:19-21; I John 2:4).
Feminization of the Protestant Church
The Protestant church has also become feminized. This started in the 19th century with Christ being depicted as an effeminate, long-haired, blue-eyed white European male. This is not the Jesus of the Bible who was in the construction/masonry business (the Greek word for Christ's occupation has been recently discovered from fragments of papyri in that period--it was incorrectly thought that Christ was a carpenter). He is the "mighty God" of Isaiah 9:6. See video entitled The Sufficiency of Scripture For Manhood And Womanhood by Dr. Voddie Baucham.
Before the feminization of the Protestant church, most pastors were soldiers who fought in the American Revolution (during the Civil War, pastors--for the first time in American history--were prohibited from serving in the military), hunters, mayors and judges. There were many outstanding Generals in George Washington's army who were clergymen. Oliver Cromwell (04/25/1599 - 09/03/1658) was the leader of his Puritan army that included many clergymen such as the great John Owen (1616 - 08/24/1683). Swiss Reformer Swingli (1484-1531) defended his people and liberties from an invading army--he died fighting. Preaching styles also changed. Instead of the strong doctrinal sermons of the Puritans, the clergy started giving sermons on love and nothing else--it was considered unloving to preach sermons dealing with heresy, sin and hell. Also, the members in the pew were told it was not Christian to be a policeman, defend yourself or be in the military!
Hymns and Sexual Songs to Jesus
Even the hymns have been feminized. I (NJIAT President) was watching a TV program late at night showing the videos of the artists who sang the old 1960s and 1970s songs and the two commentators (one a woman and one a man) could not understand why the artist/singer of the popular song/hymn, "You Light Up My Life"--the original artist was Kasey Cisyk and did not become a massive success until Debby Boone's 1977 recording of the Title song--was singing a sexual song to Jesus. (Yes, the video showed towards the end of the song a small picture of a feminized Jesus.) The two commentators were bewildered and ashamed that Debby Bonne would sing a sexual song about Jesus. This is shameful that the two unbelieving commentators had more discernment than the Christians!
Three Different Greek words for "Love" in the Greek Language
Note: There are three different Greek words for "love" in the Greek language--agape is used to worship Christ, philos is used between brethern, and eros is used for sexual relationships between a man and woman. The Bible never uses the Greek word eros to describe our love to Christ. Women, God is not your sexual lover. "Fallen in love with Jesus" and all these other catch phrases that the feminized evanjellyfish church uses is a disgrace.
Problems to be aware of in many Christian Clubs on university/college campuses (Christians should still join an Evangelical club on campus)
CNN is a great Christian Club that is not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ and will Evangelize
The five biggest problems that Christians will encounter in many of the Evangelical Christian clubs on university and college campuses are:
- Ecumenicalism: Christians should be accepting of all denominations or organizations even if the
organization or denomination is apostate and preaching a false Gospel--this is sin and condemned in the Bible.
[There are also many Protestant churches and the Roman Catholic church teaching that Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, Taoists,
animists, Jews, etc. can make it to heaven without accepting the Messiah as Lord and Savior as long as they are sincere in their faith and live a good life (see the 1994 edition New Catholic Catechism, Part One, Sections 839-845)]. This is a form of universalism (different ways of salvation) and is a heresy and a false Gospel. "But even if we or an angel from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel contrary to what we proclaimed to you, let that person be condemned!" (Galatians 1:7 ISV).
- I realize that there are Roman Catholics who are Evangelical or Pentecostal in their theology, Eastern Orthodox who are Evangelical and both accept Jesus Christ by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone and believe in Sola Scriptura and I expect to see them in heaven--however, this does not mean that the organization or church they belong to is not apostate. (I was a former Roman Catholic for over 161/2 years.) You could be a born-again/born from above believer in a liberal Protestant church, but this does not validate the church, it is still apostate. If the organization/church rejects the Bible as the infallible, verbal, inerrant, plenary Word of God and that it is the ultimate authority and deny one is saved 'solely' (i.e., 'only') through faith in Christ, the church is apostate. (It is "imputed" righteousness, not "infused" righteousness taught by the Roman Catholic church.) There are many Baptists, Pentecostals, Presbyterians, Methodists, etc. that might be in Bible believing churches and are not born-again/born from above Christians and will end up in hell. Some people claim being Baptist and are Unitarian! The church you belong to does not make one a true Christian. Exam yourself to see if you are in the faith. "Keep examining yourselves to see whether you are continuing in the faith. Test yourselves! You know, do not you, that Jesus Christ lives in you? Could it be that you are failing the test?" (2 Corinthians 13:5 ISV).
- (Please do not be offended over my criticism of an organization's doctrine and do not construe this as personal attacks on the character of the individuals--we are dealing with doctrine/theology, not a person's motive.) This why Evangelical clubs cannot and should not hold hands theologically with liberal Protestant churches, the Roman Catholic church, Greek Orthodox church, etc. This does not imply that you cannot work together on political matters that affect our country. The Evangelical clubs should not be sponsoring--on theological matters--speakers who are Roman Catholic or humanist Protestant speakers [who have been indoctrinated by the Jesuits who use the pagan philosophy of Aristotle (387 - 322 BC) via Thomas Aquinas (1225 -03/07/1274)]. I have been to many lectures over the past 7 years sponsored by Protestant Evangelical Christian clubs at Princeton University and I am bewildered that so many of the speakers sponsored are either Roman Catholic or Protestant humanist apologists indoctrinated in the philosophy of Thomas Aquinas. I have also been to many of the lectures at Princeton University sponsored by the Catholic club on campus and the speakers had no problem criticizing/bashing the Protestant church and its doctrines and claiming they are the true church, which is their constitutional right to do so. What is wrong with the Protestant Evangelical clubs?
- Natural Theology: It relies on the Greek philosophic doctrine of human autonomy: "Man is the measure of all things." Man does not need special revelation; i.e., the Bible to determine truth, morals and beauty. The word nature can be defined by human "nature" ; that is, man can find truth, morals and beauty by human reason (Rationalism), experience (Empiricism) and feelings (Mysticism) or "nature" is sometimes referred to as the "universe"; that is, perceived, measured, and weighed by the five senses. The natural theologians always had a difficult time defining the word "nature." The OT prophets and the NT Apostles rejected pagan philosophies and heathen religions as idolatrous and demonic in worship (see Deut. 32:17; Ps 106:36-7; 1 Cor. 10:20; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 9:20). Dr. Van Til, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, Dr. Gordon Clark, Calvin, Luther, the Reformers, etc. rejected natural theology as a heresy.
Historical note: The Jesuit order--a military enforcement arm of the Roman Catholic Church founded by Ignatius of Loyola of Spain in 1534 during the reign of Pope Paul III--was created to bring the Protestants back to Rome when violence and murder did not work. In order to undermine the Reformation, Catholic universities and colleges were build throughout Protestant nations where the Jesuits could teach natural theology, natural apologetics and later middle knowledge to promote reunification with Rome. This is why many so-called Protestant apologists/theologians, who have been schooled by the Jesuits, have adopted natural theology via Thomas Aquinas for their apologetics. (It should be noted that Thomas Aquinas renounced his teachings at the end of his life). Many Protestant apologists have also converted to Roman Catholicism such as, Dr. Scott Hahn, Dr. Peter Kreeft and just recently Dr. Francis Beckwith (who taught at Princeton University for one year and the President of NJIAT personally had some discussions with him on his heretical theology) all were trained in Jesuit schools. The philosophy is antithetical to the Protestant doctrine of Sola Scriptura. (The debate is over "special revelation" vs. "human reason", not "faith" vs. "reason". Don't let the humanists rig the debate.)
- Political Correctness: Christian students want to just get along with everyone and want people to like them. This cult of popularity is condemned in the Bible. "How terrible it will be for you when everyone says nice things about you, for that's the way their ancestors used to treat the false prophets!" (Luke 6:26 ISV.) So they do not stand up for Christ and defend the faith. The Christian student should be winning other students to Christ, involved in clubs, newspapers, school offices, etc. and teaching the Christian view of things. Unfortunately, many Christians are humanists and do not understand what a "Christian worldview" is. Christ is Lord over all areas--preaching the Gospel is an application of taking dominion for Christ. Another cop out is "relationship" Evangelism, which is a code word for cowardice. I never knew that Apostle Paul had a relationship with everyone he preached the Gospel to. All Christian students and non-students should be engaged in apologetics in their day to day witnessing. Christians have been empowered by the Holy Spirit to be Christ's witness bearers (Matt. 28:19, 20; Acts 1:8)--one aspect of witness bearing is the task of apologetics. God wants every believer to be "competent to defend the Faith" (Jude 3). There should be a desire and concern among Christian students in reaching the Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Atheists and so on with the Gospel of Christ. Many of the above mentioned groups only see a false or feminized Christianity being presented in a pagan, immoral America, which they think represents true Christianity. Engage the culture on campus and sponsor speakers who will refute other religions and present the true God. (See a politically correct lecture by Dr. William Lane Craig entitled "Does God Exist?" sponsored by Veritas Forum at Princeton University--item 3 on Topics listed above.)
- Evolution: Unfortunately, many Christian students do not believe in the Book of Genesis. You cannot even defend marriage if you do not believe in the Book of Genesis--marriage is a "creation ordinance" (see Genesis 2:15-25). If you understand the philosophy of science, you will be able to answer any scientist who tries to refute the Bible because of the Book of Genesis. Yes, you can intellectually defend Genesis and be a creationist! Science does not discover truth--you cannot discover absolute truth (see the "Creation Sites" Tab above). The condemnation of Galileo Galilei (1564 - 1642) by the Roman Catholic Church for his adoption of the heliocentric model of the universe was not over "science" vs. "religion", but "science vs. "science". It was "Aristotelian" science (a geocentric model of the universe) vs. "Copernicus" science (a heliocentric model of the universe). See the Creation tab on this website for further details.
- Legalism: This is a typical trick by Satan to keep the Christian in bondage. The Christian is basically living under the law--in other words, a Christian was saved by grace, but trying to be sanctified by the law. It is retrogressive to turn back to the Old Testament laws and be under the "beggarly elements". "However, in the past, when you did not know God, you were slaves to things that are not really gods at all. But now you turn back again to those powerless and bankrupt basic principles? Why do you want to become their slaves all over again? You are observing days, months, seasons, and years. I am afraid for you, lest somehow my work for you has been wasted!" (Galatians 4:8-11 ISV.) The Old Covenant was defective, not the Old Testament (which is a literary document)--a Covenant is a legal contract made in time/space. There were 4 Covenants given by Yahweh to man such as: 1. The Noahic Covenant, 2. The Abrahamic Covenant, 3. The Mosaic Covenant, 4. The New Covenant. According to Dr. Robert A. Morey in his book entitled How the Old and New Testament Relates to Each Other, page 70, "Most despensationalists simply assert that there are eight (8) covenants but they never tell us how they relate one to another. Neither do they supply any exegetical proof for the existense of the Edenic and Adamic covenants. I have yet to receive an answer to the question, 'Since the Bible nowhere mentions an Edenic or Adamic covenant, where is the exegetical justification for listing them?' " Many dispensationalists use the Scofield Reference Bible to prove such nonsense. Covenant theology also makes the mistake of denying the diversity of the biblical covenants. There is nothing in Scripture which speaks of an "everlasting covenant of grace" made in heaven between the Father and the Son. A covenant is a space/time event and entered in with a specific person. Only the New Covenant is called "everlasting" because it will never become obsolete like the Old Covenant (Jer. 32:40 & Heb. 13:20). Charles Hodges listed 4 covenants in the Bible. It depends on how you divide things. (The Mosaic Covenant was given to Israel only and consisted of 613 laws.) The Israelites were under a tutor/law--they were told how to dress, what to eat, how to cut their hair, how to worship by a highly structured liturgy, etc. This is not in the New Testament under the New Covenant. The New Testament gives believers moral directives to apply to all of life, but does not give us minute directions as in the Old Testament. Galatians states:
"Tell me, those of you who want to live under the law: Are you really listening
to what the law says? For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave woman and the other by a free woman. Now the son
of the slave woman was conceived according to the flesh, but the son of the free woman was conceived through a promise. This is
being said as and allegory, for these women represent two covenants. The one woman, Hagar, is from Mount Sinai, and her children
are born into slavery. Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to present-day Jerusalem, because she is in slavery along
with her children. But the heavenly Jerusalem is the free woman, and she is our mother". (Galatians 4:21-26 ISV.)
Typical examples of legalism (under the law—see Rom. 3:20, 28; 7:1-6; Gal. 3:1-5; 4:4-5):
1. Sabbatarianism, which the Reformers such as Calvin and Luther believed it was ceremonial and no longer binding--don't misunderstand, there is nothing wrong if a Chrstian or congregation wants to set a day apart for worship, but it should not be a burden--see 9 Part article series on the Sabbath;
2. Abstinence from alcohol (Alcoholic Beverages in the Bible) or Alcoholic Beverages; Prohibition began on Jan. 19, 1920 (the 18th Amendment); as a result, it tripled alcoholism. Unfortunately, the FBI--according to ListVerse documents--deliberately poisoned alcohol by adding methane, formaldehyde, ammonia, and even arsenic and kerosene in attempt to enforce prohibition laws (see Infowars Magazine, Vol. 3. Issue 2, Oct. 2014, page 22.) Young people should be taught moderation--Spain is a good example.
3. Cannot eat Shellfish or Pork (see Is it okay for Christians to eat pork and shellfish?--Mark 7:18)--also, see Whole Health Tab;
3. No dancing; and
4. Cannot go to the movies (probably influenced by a false strain of Platonic thinking).
The above does not imply "antinomianism" (without the law), which is sin (see John 14:15) or "perfectionism" (above the law)--see 1 John 1:8-10), “Positionalism” (no holiness in life-see Heb. 12:14; I John 2:4, 6), “Passivism” (let go, let God—see Phil. 2:12; Col. 1:29; Gal. 2:20), “Mysticism” (over-emphasis on Holy Spirit—see Isa. 8:20; John 16:7-15), “Rationalism” (under-emphasis on the Holy Spirit—see I Cor. 2:14; Eph. 5:18), and “Carnal Christianity” (heresy—see Gal. 5:19-21; Eph. 5:5-7;1 John 3:7-8).
No Christian church is perfect and you might have dedicated and Godly people that were not given the amount of grace or understanding in certain areas--they are called blind spots. However, Christians should correct themselves if God (by the Holy Spirit and Bible) is giving them understanding and clarification on Biblical doctrine in those areas mentioned above. The Holy Spirit never contradicts the Bible. The Bible is the ultimate authority/ final authority for doctrine. (Recommended book on this difficult subject entitled How the Old & New Testaments Relate to each Other & The Bible: Intelligent Design or Chance? (mentions that there were 4 Covenants in the Old Testament) by Dr. Robert A. Morey.)Why Christian Clubs on College and University Campuses should not invite guest speakers who have been indoctrinated in Natural Theology and Natural Law--many adhere to Thomas Aquinas (1225 - 1274 AD) who got his philosophy from Aristotle (384 - 322 BC)
Aquinas, an apostate, by Gentile da Farbriano (1400 A.D.) Vs. The Reformation, True Men of God by Dr. Peter Hammond
Evangelical theologians have historically believed that:
1. The Bible is the Verbal, Plenary, Inspired, infallible, Inerrant Word of God;
2. Rejected the Roman Catholic concept of the “doctrine of invincible ignorance” (see Catholic Catechism, 1994) that states that the Heathen could discover enough truth either from nature or human reason/rationalism, observation/empirism, etc. outside of special revelation (the Bible) to be saved, which mainline Protestants adopted during the 1920’s as part of their liberalism;
3. Evangelicals believed that the Heathen must hear of and believe in Jesus Christ and His Gospel to be saved;
4. All religions developed outside of or in total isolation from Biblical religion were wicked, idolatrous, violent, vile, perverted—examples: cannibalism and human sacrifices of Native American religions, Central and Southern American Religions such as the Mayans, Zapotecs, Mixtecs, Aztecs. Central and Southern Africa and Asian religions were just as evil;
5. Common ground with all people via Creation, Fall, and Redemption, not humanistic common grounds such as the misnomer that Apostle Paul used pagan philosophy on Mars Hill as common ground between him and the unbelievers, he actually insulted their belief system. Apostle Paul never appealed to reason or rationality in Acts 17, but reasoned or “argued with them from the Scriptures”—the Apostles and Prophets, preached the Gospel to Gentiles and Jews, which included sin and repentance (see the Witnessing Tab for article titled Paul’s Purpose at Athens & The Problem of “Common Ground” by Dr. Wright on this subject); and
6. History has a beginning and an end and is progressing to a predetermined end (the earth will be burned, people resurrected for judgment—eternal life or eternal condemnation--and then a new heavens and new earth will be ushered in by the Lord), not that there is a positive progress in history and everything is getting better that has led to such heresies as evolution, Marxism.; this is why the philosophies of Lenin, Marx, Darwin and Hegel falls apart if history is not progressing toward a good end.
During the 1980’s, the Evangelical community did not have a solid commitment to the authority of the Bible, many so-called Evangelicals have adopted the Roman Catholic view that the Heathen could be saved without accepting Jesus Christ as their savior—this is also known as the “The wideness of God’s mercy” coined by John Sanders, Clark Pinnock, and Robert Schuler (Billy Graham even agreed with this doctrine on his TV program—see YouTube on the Witnessing Tab). This has caused many Protestants to convert to Roman Catholicism.
Protestant Apostates & Christians Misled by Natural Theology (a few of the listed speakers below are not Apostates, but are just misled; hopefully they will not become Apostates)

A list of Protestant Apostates: Peter Kreeft, author of Ecumenical Jihad, Handbook of Christian Apologetics [published by InterVarsity Press (IVP)], J. Budziszewski, Dr. Scott Hahn, Dr. Frank Beckwith (who taught a Princeton University), etc.
It should be noted that Dr. Frank Beckwith was on the faculty of Princeton University as a Visting Research Fellow in the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions in the Department of Politics (2002 - 03). Dr. Beckwith twice was confronted by one of the Street Evangelists about his false teachings;once on the street while a group of Evangelists on 09/06/2002 were witnessing in Princeton--Dr. Beckwith with his wife stopped to take the two-question Heaven Test, "If you were to die tonight, would you go to Heaven"? (Dr. Beckwith and his wife also made false allegations against Dr. Robert A. Morey--they did not realize one of the Evangelists had read most of Dr. Morey's books and knew they were both lying. Dr. Beckwith stated that a person using "Human Reason" can obtain truths--he thought Apostle Paul appealed to Greek pagan philosophers in Acts 17:22-23 (Mars Hill) and also believed in the "open view" of God or thought it was possible, which simply states a person can be enlightened and not know Christ and make it to heaven).
Dr. Beckwith was confronted a second time at a James Madison conference at Princeton University on 10/11/2003. Alvin Plantinga was also a speaker at the conference, who is also an adherent to Natural Theology. The Evangelist told Dr. Beckwith at the James Madison lecture that you cannot get truth from "human reason." Of course, he would quote a verse from the Bible out of context, such as Acts 17:2-3, "he reasoned with them from the Scriptures" to prove the pagan Greek concept of "human reason." The Bible never defines the word "reason" with the pagan Greek abstract concept of " human reason." What did the Apostle do? "He reasoned from What"?--the Scriptures, not man's reason! (Dr. Beckwith back then claimed to be a Protestant, but adopted Roman Catholic doctrines and the philosophy of Aquinas via Aristotle and was an adherent to Natural Theology. Yes, Dr. Beckwith did convert to Roman Catholicism in 2007. It should be noted that Dr. Robert A. Morey has been warning the Evangelical community for years about these Thomists.)
Listing someone as a Protestant Apostate does not imply that the person(s) are evil or immoral, but rather that they have abandoned the historic Protestant Reformation theology such as justification by faith alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone; that is, saved “solely” through faith in Christ. It is “imputed” righteousness, not “infused” righteousness, which is a works-based salvation--they are under eternal condemnation by God. This is a false Gospel condemned in the book of Galatians--the Bible is the ultimate authority in all matters.

Dr. William Lane Craig in the early 2000s--sponsored by the Veritas Forum at Princeton University--on the topic "Does God Exist"?
Dr. William Lane Craig, a nice guy, but misled by Natural Theology and Natural Law--see The Bible, Natural Theology And Natural Law: Conflict Or Compromise? by Dr. Robert A. Morey.
Image credit: Dr. William Lane Craig. By ReasonableFaith.org (per author:This work is free and may be used by anyone for any purpose-- see https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:William_Lane_Craig.jpg). & Aristotle (384 BC to 322 BC)
One of the Street Evangelists was at a lecture given by Dr. William Lane Craig in the early 2000s--sponsored by the Veritas Forum -- Princeton University--on the topic "Does God Exist"? During the question and answer session, a Muslim student asked the following question, "Why is Christianity true and the other religions false"? The other students started to applaud--the students were not interested in whether God existed or not, but which God is true. Unfortunately, Dr. Craig did not want to engage the students on this topic. Dr. Craig is a nice guy--however, he has been misled by natural theology. The NJIAT President also asked him the following question, "How can you get the message of Christ crucified by nature, that is, looking at the sky?" Dr. Craig did admit that you need to preach the Gospel. This is a perfect example of "political correctness" on university campuses--there was no preaching of the Gospel of Christ and the heathen religions were not refuted as Apostle Paul did in his preaching. A Princeton University Jewish student in the audience did speak to the Street Evangelist after the lecture and asked him, "Do people who do not accept the Messiah go to hell?" Yes, the Street Evangelist did answer the student, but first explained what a true follower of Yeshua Ha-Mashiach is and not everyone who grows up as a cultural Christian is going to heaven--in other words, everyone is in the same boat, not just the Jews. Most cultural Christians, especially in the United States, are not true followers of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and will be eternally condemned--they are not "born from above" like Moses, King David, the Prophets, Apostles, etc. (The Old Testament saints believed in the preincarnate Christ and were saved the same way (justified by faith alone) as the New Testament saints; Moses spoke to the Word in the burning bush-see FAQ--Q8.) The Street Evangelist also explained to her that there was no Roman Catholic Church, Baptist Church, etc. in 1st century Christianity and that Christianity is really a sect of Judaism (the Way)--the first converts were Jewish. She thanked me (the Street Evangelist) for giving her an honest answer.
It is unfortunate that Veritas Forum will not sponsor real Protestant Evangelicals that can actually defend the Bible intellectually and refute Greek philosophy and non-Christian religions and present the Gospel. In other words, real Protestants who are not adherents to Greek philosophy/Natural Theology or Intelligent design (because they do not believe what the Bible says on creation and therefore will not defend the Book of Genesis). Most of the speakers invited at Princeton University that call themselves Protestant are really Roman Catholic in their theology and philosophy--they are Thomists (adherents to Thomas Aquinas, who was an heretic). They are really Roman Catholics--see Roman Catholicism Today. Dr. Cornelius Van Til, Dr. Gordon Clark, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, Dr. Carl Henry, Martin Luther, John Calvin, the Apostles and so on condemned Greek philosophy/ Natural Theology as anti-biblical.
Princeton University invites Dr. Mark Noll from Wheaton College, who is an adherent to Aquinas’ Natural Theology & Natural Law (a secret Thomist) Sponsored by Manna Christian Fellowship on 03/05/05

Dr. Mark Noll from Wheaton College, who is now teaching at Notre Dame (a Jesuit college) and a Thomist, gave
a lecture on 03/05/05 entitled Problems with Present Systems: Reasons for Voting None of the Above at Princeton University (he was sponsored by
Manna Christian Fellowship --Princeton University, a respectable
Bible based Evangelical club on campus consisting of mostly Chinese students, who had good intentions). Dr. Mark Noll defended Thomas Aquinas and
Natural Theology when confronted with a question by the Street Evangelist that Natural Theology is anti-Biblical. Dr. Noll got very
defensive and stated, "are you putting down 'Thomas Aquinas'?" and then some of the Princeton University Christian students
in the audience started to laugh. The Street Evangelist also told him that Aquinas was called the "dumb ox". It was sad and
unfortunate that many of the Princeton University students attending this lecture were ignorant to the fact that Thomas Aquinas (1225-74) was a heretic, who renounced his philosophical work and refused to write anything else on natural theology at the end of his life--Aquinas declared, "all my work is like straw!" ( see The Oxford Companion to Philosophy, page 43 and Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 1:333--Dr. Robert A. Morey researched these sources in the Library of Congress amoung other sources for his book on Natural Theology, pages 277-278).
Aquinas denied justification by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, apart from works; justification is that act of God in which the imputed righteousness of Christ is credited to your account--he believed in infused righteousness, which is a works based salvation in addition to other heresies (see what Aquinas wrote in his Summa Theologica, ii, 1, question 100, article 12)]. It was Aquinas who took Aristotle's false dichotomy of form/essence and refined it into the secular/sacred dichotomy that opened the doors for secular humanism to take over Western philosophy, science, ethics, art, politics, and theology. It also opened the doors to the "Purpose-Driven Humanist Seeker Church" movement (Christians should look to the needs of the community instead of the Bible when it comes to the structure of the church). Evangelical ministries should not be promoting or endorsing Natural Theology, Thomas Aquinas (a heretic) or sponsoring speakers who are humanist apologists (Natural Theologians)—Dr. Cornelius Van Til, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, Dr. Gordon Clark, Dr. Carl Henry, Martin Luther, John Calvin and so on condemned Natural Theology and Thomas Aquinas.

Dinesh D'Souza
Unfortunately, many so-called Christian guest speakers invited by college and university Evangelical clubs such as Princeton University have been a disaster because the so-called Christian was an adherent to Thomas Aquinas, Natural Theology and Natural Law, ecumenical, and his worldview was not based on Sola Scriptura (the Bible alone), but on Greek Philosophy, which God has declared human philosophy “foolishness” (1 Cor. 1:20). They do not believe that the Bible is the Verbal, Plenary, Inspired, infallible, Inerrant Word of God, and adopted the Roman Catholic concept of the “doctrine of invincible ignorance” that states the heathen can discover enough truth from “nature” to be saved without hearing or believing in Jesus Christ and His Gospel.
This is why the debate co-sponsored by Christian Union and The Fixed Point Foundation on December 3, 2008 at Richardson Auditorium, Alexander Hall, Princeton University between Mr. Dinesh D’Souza and Dr. Peter Singer was a big disappointment. Many true blue Protestant apologists such as Dr. Robert A. Morey (About Faith Defenders & profile on Dr. Robert A. Morey) could have easily refuted Dr. Singer and Christ would have been glorified that evening and the students would have had intelligent Biblical answers to their questions—Dr. Gordon Clark, Dr. Van Til, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, and the other great true blue Protestant apologists, if alive, would have also easily defeated Dr. Singer or any other person with a non-Christian belief system.) See Dr. Robert Morey's book entitled The Bible, Natural Theology And Natural Law: Conflict Or Compromise?
Note: Dinesh D'Souza is a great individual that fights for what is right socially and politically and is currently being persecuted by Anti-God President Obama. D'Souza says Obama represents a new low in American politics. He has produced a new movie entitled 2016: Obama’s America and has released a new book. See interview video on the Alex Jones Show on 06/09/14. Note: Mr. D'Souza was pardoned in 2018 by President Trump.
There are a few problems with movie/book America/Imagine a World Without Her.
Mr. D'Souza served for a period of time as a John M. Olin fellow at the conservative American Enterprise Institute that adheres to a neocon worldview, which Jonathan Clarke, a senior fellow at the Carnegies Council for Ethics in International Affairs. His book did expose warrentless searches by the Obama Adminstrative and his disregard for the Constitution, but did not mention America being involved with arming Al-Qaeda. Mr. D'Souza did acknowlege that Progressives want to bring America down, but did not want to acknowlege that the Globalists want to submerge the United States into a new world order of global governance and did not mention the influence of globalist foundations such as Ford, Carnegie, Rockefeller, etc. The world-government promoting Council of Foreign Relations (CFR) was not even mentioned in his book or movie.

Evangelical Clubs & Secular Clubs at the College of New of New Jersey (TCNJ) Sponsor Evangelical apologist (Frank Turek) to
debate Christopher Hitchens (Atheist) on March 31, 2009 (see the TCNJ Flyer--PDF)

The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) on, March 31, 2009, held a debate between Frank Turek (a nice guy, but brain washed by the Thomists --who adhere to the philosophy of Thomas Aquinas-- and Christopher Hitchens. You basically had two humanists arguing with each other, but Christopher Hitchens was smart enough to know that Paley and Rationalism (David Hume refuted Rationalism and the mechanistic worldview) had been discredited a long time ago. Christopher Hitchens also exposed Mother Teresa as a fraud (see Mother Teresa and Biblical Christianity). The NJIAT representative witnessed a Christian confronting Frank Turek after the lecture on his adherence to Natural Theology and Natural Law--he did not want to listen to correction. See TCNJ Frank Turek is confronted by a Skeptic (04/01/09;YouTube) -- the person arguing with Turek was a Bible believing Christian who was trying to explain to Turek that he was a Natural apologist instead of a Biblical apologist. The Natural apologist appeals to their own reason, feelings, experience, and faith as the ultimate standard of turth and morals--they begin with man as the Origin of truth, justice, morals, meaning, and beauty. A Biblical apologist starts with God and the Bible--God is the measure of all things. Dr. Francis Schaeffer stated , “A Christian humanist is a humanist.”
Why are Jesuit-trained apologists on the college circuit?
Aquinas & Plato & Aristotle & Apostle Paul witnessing in Athens & refuting Greek Philosophy
Dr. Norman Geisler was the first to openly break with the historic evangelical position on Aquinas. In his small book defending Thomas Aquinas,
he stated that since the previous generation of Protestant apologists, such as Carl Henry, Francis Schaeffer, Van Til, etc.
were now dead, the time was now ripe for him and other secret Thomists to come “out of the closet.” These
Jesuit-trained Thomists would have had their sorry asses kicked out of the evangelical circuit (especially at
Princeton University) by the great Evangelical scholars, if they were alive, such as Dr. Van Til, Dr. Gordon Clark, Dr. Carl F. Henry,
Dr. Francis Schaeffer, etc. They all rejected Aquinas’ Natural Theology and Natural Law. They understood that the doctrine of sola
scriptura was the basis of the Reformation—that is, Scripture alone. See Apologetics Radio Presentation: Warning of the Apostacy with your modern so-called Evangelical Apologists

Comments for the Christian Leadership on College/University Campuses regarding the recent Supreme Court Ruling (Christian Legal Society v. Martinez)
Judge and Prophetess Deborah (1,200 -- 1,124 BC; Book of Judges) by Gustave Dore
There recent decision by 5 wicked Supreme Court Justices against Christian clubs (Christian Legal Society v. Martinez) was the result of secular humanists judges being appointed to the Supreme Court —elections have consequences and look at who appointed the Supreme Court Justices that ruled against Christians. The ACLJ represented the following Christian campus ministries that operate across the nation: The Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Campus Crusade for Christ, the InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, Campus Bible Fellowship International, Chi Alpha Campus Ministries, Young Life (through its Young Life College program), the Navigators, ReJOYce IN JESUS Ministries, Inc., and the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS). The ACLJ also represented Alpha Delta Chi, a national Christian sorority, and Alpha Gamma Omega, a national Christian fraternity.
I would ask these groups the following question: “Are they teaching the students to apply the Lordship of Christ to politics and voting?” The recent voting record for the 2008 & 2012 Presidential election and Congressional races of many of the college Christian leadership on campus reveals they are either misinformed, secular humanists in their worldview or just stupid. (See Dr. James Manning, black radio host and Christian Bible believing minister in Harlem, NY who states that the illegal occupant President is a quasi-Muslim, an anti-Christ and a homosexual deviant and he also exposes the false conservatives such as Bill O'Reily, Rush Limbaugh, etc. and how the black and white Evangelical community is misled about what is really happening in politics, etc. Listen to his live radio: The Manning Report. Weekdays from 3PM to 6PM ET located at (www.atlah.org). Call 646-845-9707 or download on iphone.) Consult the ACLJ on the recent decision—they are located at https://www.aclj.org/ or see the Christian Legal Help Tab. Also, see the Politics/Voting Tab in order to understand what is happening in this country and to understand what the two-party system is doing. Shame on the college ministries for promoting one of the most anti-Christian Presidents in the history of the United States named Barack Obama.
If the college students are so interested in social justice, why are they not standing against the "so-called free trade agreements" that are creating a slave labor class and eliminating the middle class--Obama has been pushing "free trade agreements" relentlessly (see Sorry Protesters: Your Jobs are being sent to China--Obama does what the Bankers tell him to do and the NDAA that was passed by Obama that basically eliminated your 4th and 5th Amendments (a human rights issue) and supporting terrorists groups (that both administrations did) around the world such as Al-Qaeda to overthrow Syria and Libya). Even the ACLU is suing Obama.

Yes, juries in a civil or criminal case have the power to judge the facts and the law in a particular case. If a juror believes the law is unjust and unconstutional, the juror can and has the authority to ignore it--in other words, nullify the law. The whole concept of a jury nullification goes back to the Magna Carta (1215)--this limited the corrupt power of the king's courts. This was an important element in our common law. The United States would not even have freedom of press without jury nullification. Do you remember the Zenger trial of 1735? Jury nullification was also practiced in trials of abolitionists, who were prosecuted for helping slaves escape and to drinkers during the Prohibition era. It does not matter what instructions a judge gives to the juries, they still retain the power to apply the law or disregard it in the case. A quote from John Adams (second President of the United States (1735 - 1826), "It is not only of law, but his duty...to find the verdict according to his own best understanding, judgment and conscience, though in direct opposition to the direction of the court." (See the website titled Fully Informed Jury Association and left click the picture "Citizens Rule Book" to order (www.HomesSchoolPatriot.com) that was written by Charles R. Olsen with two other men. "Charlies" was a World War II Marine Corps veteran and printer from Boston, MA. See Why Jury Nullification Matters (video) --a jury can stop the government.)
The choice is between Babylon (the Mark of the Beast--666) or the Messiah/Anointed One--which one will you choose?
The UN, Western Europe will give their kingdom to the Beast with its ten horns--represents ten kings--and these will hate the harlot and make it desolate--the woman is the great city which reigns over the kings of the earth and the United States (who might just be brought down by the Beast or absorbed by the Beast) might be part of the same system unless the citizens wake up and turn to the true God. Babylon the Great--the mother of harlots and of the abominations of the earth -- will be judged in the near future--see Revelation 17:1-15 & 18:1-24 and Daniel 7--Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome with its diverse Beast--all have been fulfilled except the last part of Rome, which will be the European Community.
Accepting unbiblical/heretical positions such as universalism, social justice (a code word for not preaching the Gospel of Christ). Do you ever hear college students who say they stand for social justice take a stand against the so-called free-trade agreements such as NAFTA that has caused massive poverty and the elimination of the middle class that President Obama supports as did his predecessors?--see Personal Finance tab. The President does whatever the banks and Wall Street want him to do (President Obama received more donations from Wall Street in the 2008 election than McCain). And what about President Obama's promotion of abortion and hostility against Christians and religious free speech? Did you hear about the NDAA that President Obama signed in 2011? And what about the President supporting Al-Qaeda (with the help of Saudi Arabia) in Syria in order to overthrow Syria and have a radical Islamic government with no religious freedom--the rebels/terrorists are killing Christians, Jews and other groups; see the Terrorism tab. And what about the president's wicked positions against the family such as gay marriage--marriage is a creation ordinance (see Book of Genesis (2:18-24) and the Militant Lifestyles tab --homosexuality is an abomination to the Supreme Ruler of the Universe).

A nation's culture reflects its worldview (beliefs, values, morals, etc.)
Parmenides (515/540 BC) & Heraclitus (535 BC) by Johannes Moreelse (1603 - 1634)
A nation’s culture reflects its worldview (beliefs, values, morals, etc.) A culture is judged on the basis of its laws, which are codified beliefs, values, and morals (Jeremiah 6:22-23; Titus 1:12-13). Pre-Christian Greek and Roman pagan cultures codified anti-biblical laws supporting infanticide, abortion, child abuse and rape, suicide, incest, murder for entertainment, etc. These laws were changed after the Christians became involved in the culture-forming process in the Roman Empire. There are no secular/sacred, nature/grace (Thomas Aquinas), mind/matter (Plato), form/essence (Aristotle) and phenomenal/noumenal (Emmanuel Kant) dichotomies taught in the bible—Christ is Lord over all of life as taught by the Bible and Reformation, which believed in sola scriptura (special revelation) in deciding truth, morals, justice and beauty. Yes, all of life is under the Lordship of Christ—all of life is religious and there is no secular realm. Unfortunately, Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274 A.D.) embraced Aristotle’s philosophy [although his intention was to defend Christianity] and the return of the dichotomistic thought of “Essence/ Form” that became “Grace/ Nature”— reason vs. faith, which was renamed “nature” and “grace”; some things were true according to reason and some things were true according to faith. This is not Biblical. The real debate is between “special revelation” vs. “human reason”, “experience”, etc. in determining truth—one cannot have absolutes without a sovereign God.
(In other words, it was an attempt by the Greek philosophers to reconcile the contradictory philosophies of pre-Socratic philosophers Parmenides (6th-5th century B.C. and “The Father of Rationalism”), which taught:
- Reality is what you think it is (human autonomy, ontological thinking)
- Being is static and eternal—does not move or change, no such thing as rust
- Reality is perfect
- There are no particulars—the car is not separate from the parking lot
- The crippled guy is an illusion; this is what Hinduism--whose origins can be traced to a mysterious tribe of Europeans called the Aryans, who invaded and conquered Northern India between 1500 BC and 500 BC (the light skinned Brahmins of Northern India claim to be their physical and spiritual descendants)--Zen Buddhism, Christian Science Church teach; that is--there is no evil, there is no pain, there is no death, reality is an llusion, etc. and,
Heraclitus (6th-5th century B.C. and “The Father of Empiricism” and “Skepticism”), which taught:
- Knowledge is related strictly to the senses—it comes by way of the senses (touch, taste, smell, hear and feel)
- Knowledge is reduced to things experienced from the five senses
- No such thing as being
- Everything is changing (in flux)—nothing remains the same
- Change is real; permanence is an illusion1
1Dr. Robert A. Morey, “The Ancient Philosophers,” A Modern Day Apologist, A Collection of Classics 1972 to 2007, 35th Anniversary Anthology (Christian Scholars Press) pages 271-283. (www.faithdefenders.com)
The Failure of Greek Philosophy
Both Parmenides and Heraclitus’s philosophies were failures and all subsequent philosophies thereafter except Biblical Christianity (special revelation). Absolute idealism does not correspond to experience, which is the final test. Pour hot water on an idealist who says there is no pain and you will discover there is pain. Also, if every thing is one, perfect, and all is God, where did evil come from? Senses are not trustworthy either and hence you end up with no knowledge. Individuals (adhering to empiricism) are assuming that only thru your senses you can have knowledge and they realize you cannot have certain knowledge because one’s senses can be unreliable like looking at an oar in the water—to be certain there that there is no certain knowledge is self-refuting
Aquinas opened the door for secular humanism to take over politics, ethics, science, Western philosophy, art, and theology in Europe and America. This is why the secular humanists want to root out all sacred symbols from our society such as “In God we trust” on our coins. Also, American Christians developed an inward focus on personal piety—as a result of the Fundamentalist-Liberal debate in the 1920’s--to the exclusion of any concern for the culture-forming process. (This extreme separationism was in clear violation of Apostle Paul’s explicit statements in I Cor. 5:9-13.) It is sad that many so-called Christians in the 21st century would not know a Christian World and Life View if it bit them on the “ASS”.
[For further information on Greek philosophy (Natural Theology), see the Apologetics tab on this website or order the book below, which will be offered on an electronic format. Apostle Paul was hostile and caustic towards Greek philosophy, “See to it that no one enslaves you through philosophy and empty deceit according to human tradition, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ” (Colossians 2:8, ISV).]

Evanjellyfish community (a word used by Dr. John MacArthur to describe many Evangelicals in America today) have been brainwashed by the secular humanists (see Politics/Voting Tab) on many of the topics mentioned above. I highly recommend the book entitled A Christian Student’s Survival Guide below—every Christian student should have this book. The student will be able to defend the Book of Genesis (even against Princeton University science professors who are evolutionists and atheists) and refute all non-Christian religions and pagan philosophies. There is no other book published that has this information such as the Philosophy of Science , Creation Ex-Nihilo, How Do We Know the Bible is the Word of God ?, World Religions, Cults, A Biblical View of Political Science, Introduction to Apologetics, etc.
Want to Learn how to Evangelize to Fellow Students?
Introduction to Defending the Faith--10 CD lecture Set & University Press Club--Chuck in Princeton & Apologetics Tab & Cult Sites Tab
Recommended ministries for College, University & High School students in NJ, PA or NY to contact who want learn how to Evangelize and defend the faith on campuses or how to witness on the Streets—students can get real training by actually going out with either NJIAT or Street Light Ministries or CHANGE Collegiate Network to such places as Princeton, Rutgers University, University of Pennsylvania, New York City, etc. NJIAT can also be contacted via e-mail (see Contact Tab on bottom) and we will direct you to the appropriate people for Evangelism. It is unfortunate that so many students are ashamed of the Gospel of Christ and will not actively witness on camp—this is in direct violation of Scripture (Matt. 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 8:1-4 & 1 Thess. 1:7-10—see the Witnessing Tab).
There have been only two dedicated Princeton University students, one who graduated in 2010 (from California) and the other in 2007 (from Texas) who would openly evangelize to their fellow classmates and evangelize on the streets on a consistent basis. However, the first Princeton University student to go out street witnessing was a student who was an athlete of Swedish origin in 2003 and was a member of Athletes in Action (AIA) at Princeton University.
The NJIAT President met the Princeton University student from Texas at a Princeton University lecture given by Maggie Gallagher from the Institute for Marriage and Public Policy on why people should support marriage between a man and a wife--the NJIAT President raised his hand to ask Maggie the following question: "How can you defend marriage between a man and woman unless you appeal to the Bible"? She was upset with the NJIAT president's question because she was trying to prove marriage from nature (Natural Law) and tried to show how most societies accept marriage and people are happier--she had no authority for marriage (a creation ordinance in Genesis) because she did not appeal to the Scriptures--this is a major difference between Protestantism and Roman Catholicism --the Protestants believe in Sola Scriptura as the ultimate authority, not sola ratione. (The Princeton University Texas student, who became a born-again Christian while in college, shook the NJIAT president's hand after the lecture and said it took courage to defend the Bible.)
A Princeton University campus leader came out to witness with one of the students (2010 graduate from CA) and liked it; however, he was told by his superiors he could no longer join the Christian student in Evangelizing at Princeton University. What a disgrace!

Why pay thousands of dollars for silly conferences on how to reach the youth in America for Christ?
People pay thousands of dollars for silly conferences on how to reach the youth in America for Christ. One of the most difficult demographic is the 18 to 28 year old singles in Southern California. If you are a preacher studying homiletics and wondering where you can learn to be effective in ministering to young people in a postmodern context, then save the thousands of dollars and listen to this track for free and hear for yourself the message that Dr. Morey gave to Greg Laurie’s group “The Well” at Harvest Christian Fellowship. Young people at this event told us that for many of them this was the most monumental and epic event in their Christian life! Dr. Morey tried to end the message after preaching on 2nd Ephesians for over an hour. Listen to the hostile crowd yelling at him to keep preaching and forget about the clock!

Students Should be Warned of so-called Christian Psychological Counseling

The Puritan Christians were using the Bible effectively for what they called 'soul care'. Why has the Evanglelical Church turned to counseling based on psychology and therapy whose ideas came from Sigmund Freud, which is contrary to the Bible? See DVD's entitled Counterfeit Counseling and Psychological Seduction.

(Also, see PDF on Psychology & the Church below; one will find some great books written on this subject such as PsychoHeresy that examines four commonly-held myths about psychology, analyzes attempts to integrate psychology with the Bible, reveals research exposing the fallacies of psychological counseling, and encourages a return to Biblical foundations for Christian living by Dr. Martin & Deidre Bobgan—recommended by Dr. Jay E. Adams, Professor of Practical Theology, Westminster Theological Seminary, and Dave Hunt & T.A McMahon).
Christian psychologists justify visualizing "Jesus" as a necessary "inner healing" therapeutic technique for dealing with " traumas" that are supposedly buried in the unconscious. This is nothing more than shamanism (witchcraft)--visualizing "inner guides" that are also used in self-improvement techniques. What happened to prayer, repentance, obedience, faith, filling of the Spirit, etc.?
Did you know that occult and New Age authors boldly brag that the human founding fathers of Psychotherapy and Psychology received their understandings from “familiar spirits”? Did you know that some pastors today are taking over churches and church bank accounts and then selling the land and the church? James Sundquist, author of Who’s Driving the Purpose Driven Church? and Rick Warren’s Global P.E.A.C.E. Plan, and David Bay reveal how the Emerging Church and Purpose Driven Church movements are destroying Christianity in the United States.

Start a Conservative/Protestant Bible Club on a College/University campus
What kind of Constitution and Statement of Faith should a Protestant/Evangelical Club have?
The Bible Clubs' Constitution and Statement of Faith should be very detailed in order to prevent the Bible Club from becoming ecumenical or liberal. (This has occurred many times in Bible Clubs.) Any leaders/officers or voting members should be conservative Protestant/Evangelicals. The general non-voting membership can be open to anyone who wants to join. This is the preferred method because I have personally witnessed many college/university Bible Clubs being taken over by liberals who do not believe in the Bible or other non-Protestants--in other words, the Bible Club becomes ecumenical. A student who is not a conservative Protestant/Evangelical should not take this as an insult. (I was a former Catholic--who became a born-again Christian while in high school--and I do encourage Catholic college/university students to join a Protestant Bible believing club.) If one has a Catholic Club, a Jewish Club or a Muslim Club and the leadership/officers elected are true-blue Protestants, then the club is no longer a Catholic Club, a Jewish Club or a Muslim Club.
Help for writing a Constitution and Statement of Faith
I have written a Constitution and Statement of Faith that a college/university student can download. A few comments on the Constitution and Statement of Faith:
- The "Voting Membership Statement of Faith" is very detailed--however, it is broad enough to allow a conservative Protestant Bible believing Baptist, Reformed Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Pentecostal, etc. to be an eligible "Voting Member" and "Officer".
- The "Non-Voting Membership Statement of Faith" is a brief statement that should be promoted by the club for "Non-Voting" members to accept--it is not mandatory to accept the statement of faith for general membership in the club because the student would be a "Non-Voting" member.
- The "Constitution" is required by the college/university and spells out the purpose of the club, qualifications of the members, student leadership, etc.

Note: Students can start a new Bible club or just belong to an existing Bible club on college campus and still work alongside CHANGE Collegiate Network (CNN). [Students can also start a chapter of CHANGE Collegiate Network (CNN) at their college.] They will help disciple and train the students on how to evangelize and share their faith on campus (if the campus ministry needs advanced apologetics and theology material, ask the President of CHANGE Collegiate Network (CNN) for Faith Defenders books and CD’s located at< https://faithdefenders.com/>. Most campus ministries are not openly evangelizing or engaging the culture as commanded by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ( Matt. 28:18-20, Acts 1:8; 8:1-4; 1 Thess. 1:7-10—see Witnessing and Apologetics links). Instead they have seeker friendly campus ministries. As a result, many of the students who are true born-again Christians on campus and attend a campus ministry are not being feed because the leadership does not want to offend non-Christian students that might be attending. This is not how an Evangelical campus ministry should be set up—I am not condemning or throwing stones at all the Evangelical ministries on college campuses (there are many faithful ones who are doing a great job) just pointing out some of the problems. What happens is that the campus ministries end up being filled with unregenerate/unconverted college students. It should also be mentioned that many so-called Evangelical college campus ministries have either compromised the Gospel with holding hands with Rome or have gone apostate.

Start a Political Club at a College or University
Yes, students can form a political club at college such as starting a chapter of the College National Republican Committee or a chapter of the Constitution Party, etc. Students should try to influence both major parties (Democrats and Republicans) and other third parties to put God, the Constitution, Bill of Rights (which includes the 2nd Amendment) and country first. Unfortunately, both major parties have been heavily influenced by the one-worlders, secular humanists, and free-traders (Karl Marx supported free-trade) who do not believe in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. (See the Politics/Voting Tab on website that explains what a Christian's responsibility is in politics and why voting for anti-Christian and secular humanist candidates is sin and why God will hold you accountable.) See list of different political parties below.

What is a Rockefeller Republican or Democrat?
In 1964, Senator Barry Goldwater, a conservative who did not fit the establishment mold, managed to get the GOP presidential nomination. Not only did the Democratic Party work against him, but his own party also worked against him—Nelson Rockefeller, a New York governor and leader of the liberal (secular humanist) and establishment wing of the GOP, helped to sabotage Goldwater’s campaign. As a result, Barry Goldwater lost the 1964 election to Lyndon Johnson (Democrat), another big liberal (humanist) who plunged America into the Vietnam War. They are internationalists and believe in a one world government. [It should be noted that President Ronald Reagan [Republican (1981-1989)] intially rejected the Rockefeller wing of the Republican Party when campaigning. President Reagan began his 1980 campaign for the GOP nomination and eventual election by targeting the "19 key members of the Carter administration" who are or have been members of the Trilateral Commission (started in 1973 by David Rockefeller with the help of Zbigniew Brzezinski with most of its members also belonging to the Council on Foreign Relations--CFR). President Reagan and his aides were initially opposed to TC members in government posts because they were soft on defense. After the election, however, he ended up supporting many of the CFR's foreign and domestic policies and appointed many TC/CFR members to various government positions that included George H.W. Bush, Caspar Weinberger, Paul Volcker, etc. [President Reagan should be commended on his appointment of Antonin Gregory Scalia, a strict-constructionist judge, to the Supreme Court (Justice Clarence Thomas—another great judge—was appointed by former President George H. W. Bush) and signing into law the Equal Access Act to cure anti-religious bigotry by some public school officials, and so on.]
President Obama has 17 members in his administration who are TC members such as Timothy Geithner. [The Department of Homeland Security, which was conceived before 9/11 by a take force called the U.S. Commission on Naitonal Security and nine of whose 12 members belong to the CFR, include Janet Napolitano (Secretary and CFR member), Jane Holl Lute (Deputy Secretary and CFR member), Juliette Kayyem (Assistant Secretary, Office of Intergovernmental Programs and CFR member), and Alan Bersin (Assistant Secretary, Office of International Affairs and CFR member.) If one looks in the other government's key areas under Barack Obama such as finance, defense, foreign policy, etc., they are filled with CFR members.] The idea that Barack Obama became president from a "grass-roots" movement is a joke. There allegations being made, especially from Dr. James Manning and other media outlets (see Atlah Media Network at www.atlah.org and article titled Bombsell: Barack Obama outed as CIA creation) that Barack Obama was a CIA operative in Afghanistan helping the Taliban fight the Soviet Union from 1981-1985. Barack Obama's own work for the Business International Corporation in 1983 was a front for the CIA to conduct business seminars to high ranking leaders in the world. Of course, former President George H. W. Bush was Director of the CIA, but this was public knowledge.
Note: There is nothing wrong with working for intelligence agencies such as the CIA, who have many dedicated and patriotic employees---however, when the true God and the Constitution and Bill of Rights no longer matter, then it becomes a matter of betraying the country and offending the Supreme Ruler of the Universe.
Background Information and Clarification on Rockefeller Repubicans, Democrats and the CFR
Image credit: By David Dees. www.DDees.com
[See article entitled
Rockefeller Republicans by Patrick J. Buchanan]
Are these Republican scribes and senators not the same folks who went all-out for NAFTA and GATT and the WTO and MFN and PNTR for China, those brilliant trade deals that gave us $5 trillion in trade deficits, wiped out 6 million manufacturing jobs and 50,000 factories in one decade, and put us into permanent debt to China?
(Note: The Democrats also voted for these so-called free trade agreements (Karl Marx promoted free trade because it would lead to Socialism)-- President Clinton signed NAFTA into law in 1994. Many Rockefeller Republicans & Democrats are either members of Council of Foreign Relations (CFR) or affiliated or influenced by them who must promote un-constitutional free trade policies and the destruction of the sovereignty of this country(open borders/illegal immigration); in other words, they cannot support the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. Their publications such as the Foreign Affairs Journal is a well written journal and many of its members are highly educated people that have good intentions for bringing world peace and economic stability, but the policies promoted lean towards a global government at the expense of the sovereignty of the United States and disregard the supreme ruler of the universe (the God of the Bible)—one will be surprised on how many conservative and liberal organizations, corporations, media corporations, government officials etc. have CFR members in their ranks or have them on their boards or are major contributors (CFR’s “Profile of the Membership” in its 2008 Annual Report lists 398 members out of 4,338 as “Journalists, Correspondents, and Editors”, The New American, 10/11/10 edition, entitled Pushing Government-Funded “Public” Media, pages 26-30, < https://www.thenewamerican.com/>) —see< https://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/usnews/foreign-policy/4460-trilateral-commission-keeps-expanding > & The Real Newt Gingrich(CFR member) DVD and he is on record stating that the U.S. Constitution is obsolete < https://www.shopjbs.org/index.php/videos/the-real-newt-gingrich.html >.]
Many students are told that the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR) is nothing more than a policy study group. However, students are unaware that its origins started in 1921 with Colonel Edward Mandel House--an internationalist who spearheaded the League of Nations. As chief advisor and right-hand man to President Wilson, it was Colonel Mandel who encouraged President Wilson to sign the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 into law (an unconstitutional act). Dr. Richard N. Haass, President of the CFR, in an op-ed article, dated February 17, 2006, entitled Sovereignty and Globalisation wrote, "States must be prepared to cede some sovereignty to world bodies, if the international system is to function." Dr. Richard N. Haass further went on to state that "the goal should be to redefine sovereignty for the era of globalisation, to find a balance between a world of fully sovereign states and an international system of either world government or anarchy." (See The New American, May 9, 2011 issue, entitled "Groomed for Globalism" pages 28 through 32.
Dr. Richard N. Haass sets up a false dichotomy with the choice between world government or anarchy, which international affairs students are presented and taught on college campuses. Dr. Gordon H. Clark stated in his book A Christian View of Men and Things: "...Christian presuppositons justify civil governments of limited rights, whereas humanistic principles imply either anarchy or totalitarianism". Man's attempt to bring a one world government/religion will be very short lived. God with bring an end to it by His fierce judgments. It is only the Messiah (King of Kings) who will establish a righteous one world government/religion on this earth where He will rule, not man. Anyone going along with the present one world religion/government (the mark of the beast--666) will be eternally condemned. "All those living on the earth will worship it, everyone whose name is not written in the Book of Life belonging to the Lamb that was slaughtered from the foundation of the world" (Rev. 13:8, ISV).
The CFR does not devulge the content of their top secret meetings. However, one CFR member named Rear Admiral Chester Ward (USN ret.) did come out against them because he was a patriot (and had his membership terminated as a result) . A quote from Rear Admiral Chester Ward about the CFR taken from the book written by Tal Brooke entitled One World, page 237, stated:
The most powerful clique in these elitist groups have an objective in common--they want to bring about the surrender of the sovereignty and the national independence of the United States.
A second clique of international members in the CFR...comprises the Wall Street International bankers and their key agents.
Primarily, they want the world banking monopoly from whatever power ends up in the control of global government.
They would probably prefer that this be an all-powerful United Nations organization; but they are also prepared to deal with, and for, a one-world government controlled by the Soviet Communists if U.S. sovereignty is ever surrendered to them.
Modern Russia and Ukraine are actually becoming more free and President Putin is a great leader and the United States is becoming a totalitarian state--this is very sad.
Modern humanists/liberals do not believe in the historic understanding of the Constitution and Bill of Rights and thus the historic meaning of freedom of religion—in other words, you can believe what you want, but cannot practice it or teach religion (Biblical Christianity) to your children!
[It should be noted that the NJIAT President is not promoting a conspiracy theory, but only pointing out that if true conservative Republicans, Democrats or third party members do not participate in the primary election and general election then the humanists will control the party’s platform and policies--there will not be a one-world government and one-world religion until the very end when Satan will be allowed to send strong delusion with miraculous powers (2 Thessalonians). We only have small attempts by one-worlders to manipulate things--there are groups and foundations (see Civic Organizations link for book titled Foundations of Betrayal) that are trying to undermine this country, Constitution and Bill of Rights and those individuals controlling such groups or foundations should be tried for treason.]
[See the Politics/Voting or Constitutional Tab for what the requirements are for a U.S. President and meaning of "Natural- Born Citizen"--Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5--both parents have to be U.S. citizens at time of birth.]

Both major parties should not be promoting or legislating wickedness such as civil unions, gay marriage, gay adoption, abortion, androgyny [ (Rom. 1:26-27); cross-dressing is even condemned (Deut. 22:5)], hate crime laws (a code word for silencing different opinions or restricting or outlawing religious freedom that has already occurred in Canada and many parts of Europe), anti-2nd Amendment laws (the right of self-defense) against law-abiding citizens, anti-military, anti-family [mocking the father’s headship in the family and male’s headship in the church-- the early church did have women deaconesses and elders (mature women/spiritually mature—1 Timothy 5:9-13, Titus 2:3-5, the presbutidas-i.e., women elders); however, the women elders discipled the young women and were under the authority of the male elders and had no authority over the men in the church and were not pastors], oppression of widows, orphans, etc. (James 1:27), exploiting the wage earner/advice to the rich (James 5:4-5), persecuting the Boy Scouts, laws against drilling for oil in our own land, appointing activist/humanist judges who do not believe in the original intent of the Constitution, global warming laws (based on pseudo-science), uncontrollable/unsealed borders with rampant illegal immigration, etc.
Nations will be judged by the Almighty God of the Bible on their anti-Biblical laws legislated in addition to the rejection of the Messiah—
For all the nations have drunk from the wine of her sexual immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality with her. The merchants of the earth have become rich from the power of her luxury. Then I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, so that you don’t participate in her sins and suffer from her plagues. For her sins are piled as high as heaven, and God has remembered her crimes. Do to her as she herself has done. Give her double for her deeds. Mix a double drink for her in the cup she mixed.” [Revelation 18:3-6 (ISV).]
Sometimes a citizen has to vote for the lesser of two evils; however, if a Christian or non-Christian votes for candidates who have sold out to humanistic, anti-God and Unconstitutional positions, this is sin and not applying the Lordship of Christ in all areas of life .
What about U.S. Citizens who have different faiths?

It is in the best interest for any U.S. citizen no matter what their religious background is (Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Skeptic, Jew, liberal Protestant, Catholic, etc.) to vote for candidates that stand for a biblical worldview mentioned above because it will guarantee your religious freedom and rights granted to you under the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Promoting secular humanism (man is the measure of all thingsand there are no absolutes—everything is relative) and voting for humanist politicians will guarantee the elimination of your freedoms and bring judgment on this nation! A quote from Charles Dickens in 1845 about the Protestant Swiss canton influence on economics and politics between nations:
On the Protestant side, neatness, cheerfulness, industry, education, continued aspiration after better things. On the Catholic side, dirt, disease, ignorance, squalor and misery. I have so constantly observed the like of this since I first came abroad, that I have a sad misgiving that the religion of Ireland lies at the root of all its sorrows.
Note: The 1960’s hippies (which were called by the Sheriff’s Officers, who worked in the Hunterdon County jail located in NJ in the 1960’s & 70’s, “simple-minded hippies”—the county jails were under the Sheriff’s Dept. at that time) who promoted so-called love (unauthorized nooki before marriage & other forms of immorality) over war did not understand the definition of love. Love rejoices in truth according to the Apostle and the word “truth” defined biblically is used in its ethical sense of “righteousness according to God’s law.” It means “Right or True living” (1 John 1:6; 3 John 3, 4).
What about the State’s authority over citizens? A summary extracted from The Encyclopedia of Practical Christianity, page 504, by Dr. Robert A. Morey about the State’s authority over citizens:
Image credit: By David Dees. www.Deesillustration.com
- All authority resides in God (Dan. 4:28-37; Matt. 28-18).
- All human authority is delegated authority, which means God will hold the person or institution accountable to Him for how they used their authority (Rev. 20:11-5).
- No person or institution has absolute or intrinsic authority by God (John 19:10-11).
- God’s delegated authority is only valid to leaders according to Scriptural guidelines and functions within Scriptural limits.
- The Scriptures recognize four (4) sovereign spheres of authority
- Church (1Thess. 5:12-13; Heb. 13:17, 24 etc.)
- State (Rom. 13:1-7; 1 Pet. 2:13-17 etc.)
- Family (Eph. 5:22-29; Eph. 6:1-4, etc.)
- Business (Eph. 6:5-9; 1 Pet. 2:18-19, etc.)
The spheres might interact with each other, but should never invade each other in order to take authority which God delegated to the different spheres. One example, the State should not be dictating to the church what it can preach or believe in—the State has delegated and limited authority by God in Scripture (Rom. 13::1-7).
Note: A legitimate government (per Bible) could be a Constitutional Republic, Parliamentary Republic, Monarchy, etc. However, a civil government becomes illegitimate and tyrannical (per Bible) when it takes control of all life. Examples of tyranny in a government when its leaders controls or denies the following:
- Freedom of religion;
- Free speech;
- Lawful assembly;
- The right of self-defense (not allowing ownership of firearms--gun confiscation or very restrictive control);
- Private property, etc.
This is why a foreign policy of promoting Democracy is a farce. This country (USA) is a Republic and not a Democracy. Democracies usually will not work in other countries such as the Middle East unless the society adopts a Biblical Protestant/ Calvinist worldview. Otherwise the citizens of a country will elect leaders who will deny those rights that the United States enjoys because they are electing people based on their worldview—our government should be promoting or demanding the above mentioned rights are granted to citizens of every nation as basic human rights, not that they have a Democracy. Western Europe, Australia and Canada are Democratic nations, but this is what has happened in these countries:
- Persecuting people of the Christian faith (Germany arrested Christian parents for home schooling their children);
- Hate crime laws (silencing free speech such as religious teachings against homosexuality);
- Canada, Australia and Sweden have already arrested Christian pastors for speaking out against homosexuality and other religions;
- Japan is a police state;
- Confiscation of firearms from law-abiding citizens that want to protect themselves from criminals or an evil government (in Africa, Western and Eastern European countries millions of innocent citizens have died because of gun confiscation—see 2nd Amendment link on website) and so on.
Wow, Democracy has really brought freedom in these secular humanist nations! Of course, it is better than communism (an evil system), but Western Europe is heading towards or is already an anti-God, socialist police state because they have rejected Biblical Protestant Christianity. [Two recommended books on this subject: 1. When is it Right to Fight by Dr. Robert A. Morey 2. A Christian View of Men and Things, by Dr. Gordon H. Clark . Also, A Christian Student's Survival Guide by Dr. Robert A. Morey has a chapter on A Biblical Politcal Science.
