Dr. Jim Garlow: Useful Idiot or Fascist Change Agent

 Dr. Jim Garlow at Skyline Church in LaMesa, CA

Nearly 25 years ago, radio and television evangelists began speaking about a new political religion that would direct its efforts toward taking control of all institutions, including mainstream denominations and the government. Its stated goal was to use the United States to create a global Christian empire. This call for fundamentalists and evangelicals to take political power was radical, and a mutation of traditional Christianity. Today the political activity of Christians is viewed as the normal thing to do. You are led to believe that all Christians vote Republican, and to do otherwise is just plain wrong!

The late Dr. James Adams, a Unitarian from Harvard Divinity School, once said, "The Nazis were not going to return with swastikas and brown shirts. Their ideological inheritors had found a mask for fascism in the pages of the Bible." Adams saw in the Christian Right, disturbing similarities with the German Christian Church and the Nazi Party. He had been in Germany in 1935 and 1936 and worked with the underground anti-Nazi church, known as the Confessing Church, led by Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Adams was eventually detained and interrogated by the Gestapo, who suggested he might want to consider returning to the United States. When he was teaching at Harvard, he stated that American fascists would rise under the guise of religion to dismantle the open society. [1]


A Look at the Past
Let's take a look at how the Church in Germany ran into the ditch. It didn't take much to change the minds of many professing Christians. Dr. Alfred Rosenberg, a Nazi change agent, played an important role in the development of Positive Christianity, which he intended to be transitional to a new Nazi faith.[2]


In his book entitled The Myth of the Twentieth Century, Dr. Rosenberg wrote:
"The religion of Jesus was undoubtedly the preaching of love . . . but the German religious movement, which wishes to develop into a people's church, must declare that it unconditionally subordinates the ideal of neighborly love to the ideal of national honor . . . The churches, handed over to it again, and will little by little, put the fiery spirit of the hero . . . in place of the crucifixion." 
 Nazi/Fascist propaganda depicting Jesus exhorting his Nazi followers to go crush the "godless communists."

Dr. Alfred Rosenberg, like many in the corporate Church today, helped to develop the rationale that national honor and country were important. Their political platform was built on family values, God and country. Modern day Christian Reconstructionists have introduced a theory that America was founded as a Christian nation. In spite of the fact that one of its key teachers has been caught twisting historical facts, he has still been accepted as a credible historian by the Evangelical church.

It is interesting to note that the Protestant Reich Church was formed under the National Socialist German Worker's Party in 1933, by merging 29 regional churches into one church. The founding of the church was the result of work by German Christian Socialists.[2]

A Segue - A Key Point 
"The Family," also known as "The Fellowship," is a religious and political organization for the political elite based in Washington, D.C., which was founded by Abraham Vereide in the 1930s and still exist today. They were pro-Hitler and recruited several Nazis to serve U.S. government intelligence positions after WWII. The association, with the Nazis help, paved the way for the direction "The Family."

"The Family" was nurtured financially and organizationally by the military order Knights of Malta, a Vatican-based secret society known for aiding Nazi/Fascists. The Order of Malta is one of the oldest religious Catholic Orders, and is controlled by the Jesuits. One of their goals is to restore the Protestant church back under the primacy of the Pope, and to create a one world religion that would be ushered in by the New Age christ.

According to Jeff Sharlet's book, “Between the Cold War estab­lish­ment and the reli­gious fer­vor of Abraham Vereide and his allies, orga­ni­za­tions that came of age in the post­war era were–the National Asso­ci­a­tion of Evan­gel­i­cals (1942), Cam­pus Cru­sade (1951), the Billy Gra­ham Cru­sade (1948), Youth For Christ (1944), the Nav­i­ga­tors (1933), and many more." Sharlet says that Nazi agent Man­fred Zapp had an influence on some of these organizations. Each was created to be ecumenical, with each organization being helped by founders of ministries already founded.

Since these ministries have been established, they have promoted Christian unity between denominations, and used ecumenism as a strategy to achieve dominion over all religions. The Knights of Malta/Jesuit plan was put into place to deceive believers to become as one by only looking at the doctrines we hold in common - not our differences. This New/Neo-Evangelicalism has become the new norm, blending themselves into every denomination of the Church. Along with their pro-Israel teaching, they have made their brand of Dominionism/Reconstructionism appear biblical, while all along it isn't.

(For more on this piece of the puzzle, here is the research.)

Dr. Jim Garlow's Wall of Shame
It is said that, "One can judge a man by the company he keeps." I have no proof that Dr. Garlow is a Freemason or Knights of Malta, but these images are perfect for his Masonic rite of passage. A Masons goal is to meet other famous and powerful Freemasons at each leg of the journey. I believe he's met quite a few.
 
The late Chuck Colson was a member of the drafting committee for the ecumenical Manhattan Declaration - a document Garlow promoted heavily and signed. Colson was also the recipient of the Templeton Award, given to those who advance ecumenism.

He and James Robison, member of the globalist organization Council for National Policy (CNP), have had a like-minded friendship.

Lance Wallnau teaches, and Dr. Garlow endorses, the 7-Mountain Mandate. 

Dr. Garlow was a regular guest on Freemason Glenn Beck's show. He was part of Glenn's Black Robe Regiment.

Dr. Garlow is a frequent guest speaker at Lou Engle's "The Call". Engle is openly New Age and a Dominionist.

Bishop Salvatore Cordileone, Bishop of Oakland, CA, also signed the Manhattan Declaration.

Dr. Garlow was asked to be part of Newt's Faith Dream Team. Most of them are either Freemasons or CNP. Newt is a Catholic/New Ager who is also part of the Third Way (Fascist) politics.

 James Dobson, CNP, has been a regular guest at Skyline. Dr. Garlow was recently invited by Focus on the Family to take part in the Focus on the Family’s and the Florida Family Policy Council’s “Prayer Rally for America’s Future” in Tampa’s River Church, led by faith healer Rodney Howard Browne

Dr. Garlow was a speaker at the 2012 Watchmen on the Wall Conference, along with Knights of Malta Gen. Jerry Boykin. Think tank Tony Perkins and a list of other questionable speakers can be viewed here.

 He is on the Advisory Board of Harvest Unlimited. Freemason Tim LaHaye was one the original supporters of Harvest Unlimited with Jim McKinney (the current front man). The late Bill Bright's wife is also on the Board. They assist Catholic churches as well.
 
Educational Background
  • Drew University (Ph.D. in historical theology) - Jesuit infiltrated
  • Princeton Theological Seminary (Master of Theology) - Calvinist in their theology.
  • Asbury Theological Seminary (Master of Divinity) - Ecumenical
  • Southern Nazarene University (B.A. & M.A.) - Church of the Nazarene is cooperating with National Council of Churches - infiltrated by Communists.
  • Oklahoma Wesleyan University (A.A.) - Wesleyan Churches is a member of the World Council of Churches - infiltrated by Communists.
The Skyline Church
The church family moved into a 2,000 seat facility in February 2012. They had their cornerstone ceremony months before, which is a tradition of Roman Catholics and Freemasons. The official dedication service featured Dr. James Dobson and Dominionist C. Peter Wagner. Dr. Garlow is their third pastor, who took over for John Maxwell, a leader in the Communitarian Church Growth Movement and New Age positive thinking. Located on their church grounds is a Heritage Walk and Revelation Fountain, that may be a labyrinth.[3] Typically a labyrinth-walker will use contemplative prayer as he walks the path, which is an ancient meditation tool to reach an altered state of consciousness. - very much like TM.


Then, the church had a chandelier designed specifically for Skyline. The number 33 is in the name and incorporated into the design of the cocoon-styled lamp. If you recall, 33 is also significant to Masons and occultists - since it is the highest Masonic degree in their initiation process, and they place value in numbers.


Renewing American Leadership
A symbolism within a ministry website will tell you exactly who you're dealing with. Based on what I have been told by someone who was once involved in the occult, this is what the following symbol means.
 "Lucifer, the flame, is in a circle which could be seen a casting a spell or binding a devil into the logo. In masonry and witchcraft, that is why the pentagram and the hexagram are put in circles."
The philosophy of Light, within Illuminism and Luciferianism, sees the sun, fire, and light as symbols of illumination and knowledge.[4Warning]
"Then when you look at the video, he has a broken pentagram in the corner of the screen - which could be considered as loosing a devil out of the pentagram."
That broken star logo is from DayStar TV, a network that carries Christian programming. Within the video on the front page of Dr. Garlow's website, you'll find his hand signs interesting.

 

Upcoming Dominionist Political Activity


America for Jesus 2012 will gather on Independence Mall in Philadelphia, Sept. 28-29, to pray for the healing of our nation and its people 40 days before America casts its vote for President. America for Jesus is sponsored by One Nation Under God, Inc, and led by this executive board of leaders. Note the recurring names in many of these Dominionist events, such as Jim Garlow, Lou Engle, Cindy Jacobs, and Rev. Samuel Rodriguez. Here is a partial list of those attending:
  • Dr. Jim Garlow, Renewing American Leadership and Senior Pastor, Skyline Wesleyan; 
  • Tom Phillips, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
  • Jane Hansen Hoyt, Aglow International
  • Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference;
  • Lou Engle, The Call;
  • Cindy Jacobs, Generals International
  • Rev. Bonnie Camarda, The Salvation Army of Greater Philadelphia and former President of Hispanic Clergy of Philadelphia
  • Dave Butts, Harvest Prayer Ministries
The following is a promo for the event. Note the patriotic overtones.


Conclusion
Those who believe Christians must vote and be involved in upholding righteousness in the civil arena forget that it is the Lord who uphold those who are righteous. There should be no involvement with the affairs of the world.

  "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." Isa. 41:10

The Christian Right is not Christian, rather a tool used as a launching point to future occult objectives. Fascism, the New Age movement, the Religious Right neo-conservatives, neo-Evangelicals/Emergent church leaders, and Dominionism are woven together and interconnected. Although they all seem as though they are separate, they are being orchestrated to create a great Global Oneness. Each by itself has its own teaching of unity and oneness, and together they will become as one.

The motivating influence and future objectives of the Christian Right will become clearer when the days draw closer. The evidence is before you. You've seen his associates, his background, beliefs, and we have a good idea where he'll be in the future. So, what do you say? Is Dr. Garlow a useful idiot or a Fascist change agent?
