#Culture. The Great Convergence.
Convergence is an event known in the Word of God as Apostasy, which requires an act of converging and especially moving toward union, sameness, or uniformity.
CONVERGENCE | UNIFORMITY IN ACTION
“If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.” (1 John 1:6-7)
Convergence is an event known in the Word of God as Apostasy, which requires an act of converging and especially moving toward union, sameness, or uniformity. It is also known as the “falling away to join another supernatural force.” I believe our Lord ignited this event in 2020. Time will tell. However, Jesus's words, “Walk while you have the Light so that darkness will not overtake you,” could not be more relevant in our present end-times. We cannot stop this coming convergence; God ordains it.
Supernatural Act of Convergence
Recently, my wife had eye surgery on her right eyeball. After her surgery, her eyes would not converge for one single image. Thus, she saw double images. God designed our eyes to see two separate images while being designed to incorporate the separate movement of the eyes to converge two images to a single point and fall on corresponding points of the two retinas, which, initially, the images are upside down. The brain then flips those images upside right. While in the brain, it converts the double images into a single image while maintaining the reality of two separate images. If this design is disturbed, the brain must relearn the state of organic convergence.
I learned a lot from her experience. Humanity functions similarly when it comes to worldviews. If God’s creational design of humanity is disrupted, double vision (worldview) is imminent.
Creational Worldview Going Rogue.
The phrase going rogue has a specific meaning of “behaving erratically or dangerously.” Today’s expression is more likely to indicate that someone is displaying a high degree of independence or failing to follow the expected script of humanity. When we unite these words, as in our title, we have this: “A supreme authority who will lead from a hidden place will be erratic and dangerous and will not follow the life script of humanity.”
Jesus gave us a warning.
“So Jesus said to them, ‘For a little while longer, the Light is among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.’” (John 12:35)
When Jesus said, "For a little while longer, the Light is among you," He was serious. He knew that a global convergence was soon to be upon humanity.
Convergence is “an act or instance of converging and a point in which the lines of ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ will converge, resulting in a society without a conscience.”
Convergence requires a mastermind, and it is not an accidental phenomenon. Since the unsaved mind is darkened and managed by the mastermind of Satan, convergence is a strategic plan implemented by hidden governance, and the objective is to neutralize minds to control the masses. Once the convergence is solidified and normalized, preeminent darkness will overpower light - temporarily, that is.
“But if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.”
(1 John 1:7)
The ideation of sin needs a conscience, and sin surfaces as a misnomer when the conscience becomes seared. If we walk in the Light, the conscience becomes a guiding force to prepare us for living in a preeminent dark society. However, this requires hosting the indwelling Life and mind of Christ.
A dark society does not function without deception. Deception within the Church cannot multiply without passivity, and passivity is the gateway to impotence.
Passivity is the greatest enemy of the Gospel!
In evaluating the present condition of the Body of Christ, we discover a mystery that separates the sheep from the goats - revealing authentic believers.
When you look at our society today, what do you see? If you are alert to the scheme of the enemy of God, most likely, you will see the church slipping into the modality of converging the values and core doctrines of the Word of God in and with the lukewarm mindset of the Antichrist. This madness method is the “sting of death” (1 Cor. 15:56), where co-burial in Christ and the Resurrection Life fades into the emergent Social Gospel.
Often, I am asked, "Why is the Social Gospel dangerous?" The quick answer is that the Social Gospel considers relationships more important than doctrines. The more complex answer is disturbing - people who propagate the Social Gospel define the authentic Gospel through self-life experience, better communicated as the feeling-based gospel.
Since the Social Gospel is the global religious view of Socialism, both the Social Gospel and Socialism (as a government) provide the root deception that leads to the captivation of all people into one-world governance. Both ideations are rooted in a feeling-based belief system. However, both aim to eliminate the freedom of liberty, meaning the conservative branches with a Biblical worldview become frustrated in asserting the sound doctrines of God's absolute Word, fearing condemnation, and being bullied into silence. Sadly, this demonic ideation works with most fake and real believers in Christ. Keep in mind the leading ramification is that silence provokes passivity. Thus, passivity silences the lambs of the Living God, which ultimately removes the testimonies of and for Jesus Christ.
The Ultimate Challenge:
Equipping the authentic Saints of Jesus Christ is a massive challenge. Since the leading social misnomer accepted by our culture is anti-authority, when the real Gospel is presented authoritatively, the masses default to this cultural ideation. Suppose you are blocked from presenting authority as the foundation for ushering in conviction. In that case, the listeners will default to converging two separate worldviews into one while being passive in isolating the original creational view.
Here is the clincher.
There are only two fathers - the Father of Lies (Satan) and God the Father. There is a problem when an individual converge these two fathers into one. Unless authoritative figures are under God the Father and managed by God the Father, each is identified as under the Father of Lies. This kind of clarity of authority provokes a growing movement of hostility. No one places themselves under authority. All of humanity is born under the limited authority of the Father of Lies (Romans 6; Galatians 2:20). To get out from under this horrific position of slavery, one must be crucified with Christ, buried with Him, and then, and only then, can the individual be translated under the authority of God the Father.
Most loathe the idea of slavery.
Today, research reveals that slavery, racism, sexism, and poverty are the leading ideological issues that provoke hostility or resistance. However, I would like to point out that slavery is at the top of the pile. Since all humanity is born as a slave to Satan, all are forced into slavery. Due to Adam and Eve's act of rebellion, humanity was placed under the master, the Father of Lies - via the seed line of Adam. Thus, slavery became obligatory and not an act of choice.
As most understand, enslaved people need to be purchased to transfer ownership. The price that Christ was burdened with was His Life. Remember that God the Father honors the system of releasing a slave. He kept to the rules and placed this price tag on His Son. Jesus knew He had to go to the Cross of Death to make this payment, and He willingly paid the price required by the old master - death. While Satan thought he had finally won the mastery battle, he didn't expect Jesus to be resurrected. Furthermore, he didn't expect the Father to place Jesus's resurrected Life into authentic believers on Pentecost. And he certainly didn't plan for acts of the indwelling Life to be the standard from Pentecost forward, releasing millions through the generations from being under the slavery of sin to being bondslaves unto Christ.
Why is Satan so relentless?
Folks, this is theology 101. Satan developed a system of deception - silencing the lambs of God. He probably thinks that if he can silence the real-deal believers and the authentic Gospel, transferring mastery to him will fix Jesus's plans to reach enslaved people through conversion, where Jesus comes to live in the born-again believers. Sad to say, his plan is working, which confirms what Jesus said, that the road to destruction is wide, and many are on it, and the road to Heaven is narrow, and few are on it (Matthew 7:13-14).
We must remember that God is not into numbers. He is into gathering the faithful few who will authentically honor Him as God, accept Jesus as their Life, and remain committed to the absolute doctrines and requirements to enter the gate, which grants eternal Life to all who enter by His indwelling faith.
The Leading Cause of Christian Passivity.
Modern Christians tend to be intimidated by cultural movements so much that droves are suffering from the temptation to renounce their faith in Christ, minimally converging the two worldviews into one. So, what would be the leading cause of this demonic passivity? The fear of fronting demonic doctrines and movements.
While you would think Christians would be the example of battling the enemy's tactics, research proves they are not. Most converge demonic doctrines into their lukewarm faith, resulting in a compromised testimony, causing the believer to fade into a social gospel.
Our mission is to separate darkness from light while empowering the people OF Light (Jesus Christ) to shine forth in darkness to deliver the people of darkness into the Kingdom of Light and Life. Therefore, our bottom line is that authentic Christians should not be silent in advancing the Gospel THROUGH culture and not refrain due to culture.
The reality is, using the illustration of the eyes, while two images (worldview) indeed exist, God designed humanity to convert those two views into a single view of God the Father through the indwelling mind of Christ. Folks, it is always about the mind, which happens to be the “control center” for all of life. It is no wonder why authentic believers have the mind of Christ.
Thanks for the restack, Mark. Every little bit helps.
