WHEN\u00a0<\/strong>COVID-19 began to spread beyond China’s borders and churches began to close, there was a period over 2-3 weeks that I personally found overwhelming, but for reasons different than most. Suddenly, like a thief in the night,\u00a0<\/em>the days I had been writing about for fifteen years were upon us. Over those first weeks, many new prophetic words came and deeper understandings of what has already been said\u2014some which I’ve written, others I hope to soon. One “word” that troubled me was that the day was coming when we would all be required to wear masks<\/em>, and that this was part of Satan’s plan to continue to dehumanize us<\/em>.<\/p>\n And what progress this plan of dehumanization has made! It culminated this century with atheism<\/em>, which divorced our generation from the truth that we are made in God’s image. Second, through evolutionism<\/em>, which divorced us from our rightful place in creation. Third, through radical feminism<\/em><\/a> and the sexual revolution, which divorced the soul from the body. Fourth, through gender ideology, which divorced our bodies from their biological sex. Fifth, through individualism <\/em>and the technological revolution, which divorced us from each other. And now, the last stage before the anticipated “final evolution” of mankind takes place (transhumanism<\/em>, which will integrate technology within our bodies): totalitarianism, <\/em>which is divorcing us from freedom itself.<\/p>\n For freedom Christ set us free… (Galatians 5:1)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The end result is that we have been essentially reduced to nothing more than fatherless, genderless, and now soon, faceless<\/em> subjects who can be easily corralled, numbered, and manipulated<\/a> to serve the “father of lies.”\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A WORD ON THE SCIENCE<\/p>\n The point of this article is not to debate the science of wearing masks. So, for an exhaustive review of the medical literature and dozens of peer-reviewed published studies that show questionable benefit<\/em> to wearing masks and even serious harm and increased risks of getting COVID-19, read Unmasking the Facts<\/a><\/em>.\u00a0<\/em>In summary:<\/p>\n Though CDC\u2019s policy guidance encourages the use of face masks, there is substantial evidence showing that masks are harmful and a lack of evidence showing they are effective in preventing the spread of coronavirus. Studies show that wearing a face covering reduces blood and tissue oxygenation \u2014 which can be deadly \u2014 while increasing carbon dioxide levels. Mask-wearing can also increase the risk of infection and the spread of viral illness, hinder detoxification that occurs via exhalation, impair the immune system and cause many other ailments, both physical and emotional. Moreover, some masks have been found to contain known carcinogens, which put people at risk from inhaling toxic chemicals and having them come into contact with their skin.<\/strong> \u2014GreenMedinfo<\/em>, Newsletter, July 3rd, 2020<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n So, while the science alone is enough to reject this extreme imposition, let’s be honest, resisting will do little good. The shots are no longer being called by bishops, mayors, and arguably, even presidents. “Anti-maskers” will not fair well in this new reality. In fact, Eric Toner, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and a world leader in pandemic preparedness, suggests “We’ll be living with masks for years.”[1]<\/sup><\/a>July 6th, 2020; cnet.com<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n
