How much of the Word is truth? All of it!

Part 1: Jordan Peterson and the Lobsters

Christianity distilled to its basic fundamental level involves one question and one question only.

Do you place full trust in the Word of God?

That was the question for Eve when she stood before the Serpent, and it was the question for Jesus in the wilderness when He was tempted by the Devil. It is still the question for you and I today.

Unfortunately, while there are many professed Christians in the world, most of them do not trust the Bible.

A 2014 study revealed that only 41% of American Christians are certain that humans did not evolve from non-human life forms. The study also found that only 44% are sure that Adam and Eve were real people. Only 15% of those surveyed were “absolutely/very certain” that humans came into existence within the last 10,000 years.ⁱ Similar and more recent studies have confirmed the trend of questioning and rejecting the plain words of Scripture.ⁱⁱ

This all means that the majority of Christians (at least 59%), some of whom are doubtless the same Christians who assert that America is a “Christian Nation”, believe that humans descended from lower life forms through processes of natural selection over the course of millions of years.

If Christianity is the religion of the Bible, and vast swaths of Christians reject the Biblical pronouncement of Creation and the Fall, then what religion are they actually? Who are they following?

To be a Christian is to be a declared follower and believer in Christ. Christ is specific. Christ taught Creationism. Christ taught that Adam and Eve were real people. The New Testament states that Cain and Abel were real people – Matthew 23:35; Hebrews 11:4, that Noah was a real person – Matthew 24:37, and that the Flood was a real event – Matthew 24:37.

When the Pharisees asked Jesus about whether it was lawful for a man to divorce his wife, Jesus referred them back to Creation:

4 And He answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that He which made them at the beginning made them male and female, 5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? 6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Jesus could ask Christians today the same question regarding their doubts on the origins of the human race: Have you not read your Bible?

Christianity, which is the religion which follows the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, believes in Creationism. It has no doubts as to whether Adam and Eve were real people because Jesus says they were real people. “Without Him nothing was made that was made” – John 1:3. The Bible says Jesus created Adam and Eve – just like Genesis says. To disbelieve this is to transfer the authority in your life from the Word of God to the words and opinions of finite man.

Now let’s talk about hypocrisy.

Christians vocally lament the loss of sexual and gender norms in today’s culture. Many of them would assert that the fundamental destabilizing mistake which is ruining western culture is the rejection of the Word of God. Which is true. But they are doing the exact same thing when they throw away the Genesis account of Creation and claim to still be followers of Christ.

This is hypocrisy.

The Bible teaches that God personally formed Adam from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life – Genesis 2:7. The Bible says that Adam transgressed and fell – see Genesis 3 – and that God interposed Himself to save humanity from the consequence of their sin. Christianity is all about the redemption and restoration of the fallen sons and daughters of God.

Therefore, to reject the literal creation and fall as set out in Genesis is to reject the atonement and the plan to restore the lost image of God in man.

This brings us to Professor Jordan Peterson, who has obtained something akin to rock star status in conservative Christian circles for his commentary on gender pronouns and free speech. Peterson, formerly an atheist, has publicly asserted recently that he now believes in God.ⁱ

Before going further, I wish to say – I appreciate Jordan Peterson. I appreciate his willingness to speak unpopular truth to an angry mob. We know the mob is angry and violent. It is standing up to the mob – any mob – that is one of the qualities in short supply today.

Jordan Peterson has made no professions of Christianity, and people should stop attempting to make him do so.ⁱⁱ Speaking of the mob, there is almost an obsession on the conservative side of the political spectrum with forcing Jordan Peterson to pronounce some sort of orthodoxy. His wife has been confirmed in the Catholic Church, and there is pressure for him to declare that he is a Catholic, for example.ⁱⁱⁱ

Jordan Peterson has a massive following, and substantial influence. There is no doubt he has taught some important truth. But do the Christian people who follow Jordan Peterson know that God’s Word is a higher authority than Jordan Peterson? That in the event of a conflict between what Jordan Peterson says and the Bible, that the Word is supreme? That it is impossible to follow God without accepting the authority of the Bible as objective truth?

Do Christians realize that Jordan Peterson and the Bible completely disagree about the origins of humanity and life on this earth?

The Bible says that it is by faith that “we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” Hebrews 11:3. The Bible says, “He spoke and it was so. He commanded and it stood fast.” Psalms 33:9. The Bible says God “formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life.” Genesis 2:7. The Bible says that Adam is the son of God – Luke 3:38.

But Jordan Peterson says that Adam is the son of Larry Lobster. And Mike the Monkey.^iv Yes, he reads the Bible and says he appreciates the story of the cross of Christ, but he also says you are a highly developed crustacean.

There is a growing contingent in western society which likes some of the traditions of cultural Christianity, and enjoys speaking truth to progressive power, but places a low priority on the Word of God. When evolution clashes glaringly with the Bible, so-called Christians prefer cultural orthodoxy to God’s Word. It’s much easier to stay with the ecumenical conservative crowd that way.

But make no mistake: There were NO monkeys or lobsters in the genealogy of Adam. Christ came to die for His fallen child, made in the image of God. Christ did not leave His throne of glory to die for the descendants of the lobsters. Apart from the fact that the very contention is ridiculous, what would be the point?

Did the lobsters sin? Or was it their ancestors? How did they sin? When? Against what commandment? Sin is the transgression of the law – 1 John 3:4. What law did the lobsters transgress?

Did the lobsters know that they were sinning? Were they warned in advance not to sin?

The Bible teaches that in the beginning everything was made good – very good. The world was perfect. There was no death. Not for Adam or the lobsters. The Bible teaches that death did not enter until sin, and the world deteriorated as a consequence of that sin – Romans 5:12.

But according to Darwin, death has been the norm since the sloppy goo got hit by lightning and turned into the great grandaddy of the craw daddy. The lobsters and their variants grew up with death. They fought, they ate, they lived, they died. For millions of years. Until they became monkeys.

This is progressivism. This is evolutionism. It is not Christianity.

Darwinism has no place for the Fall or the entrance of sin. Darwinism has no place even for the concept of sin or for the broken law of God. This means Darwinism has no place for redemption. There is no need for Jesus in evolution. Jesus does not need to die to save the lobsters or their descendants.

While Jordan Peterson champions the cause of free speech, and the obvious reality that there are only two sexes, male and female, he truly destabilizes the foundation of his arguments by, on one hand, publicly confessing his belief in God, and on the other hand, repeatedly asserting that humanity had lobsters for ancestors.

Perhaps Peterson does not realize he is undermining the foundations of the rights he is championing.

For example, where does free speech come from if we come from crustaceans? Shall we pretend that God gave freedom of speech to lobsters?

Who made men’s mouths, asks God rhetorically – Exodus 4:11. He did. He formed the mouth of Adam, and gave him the breath of life, and the ability to reason and communicate. The right to speak comes directly from the Creator. At Creation.

The right did not evolve. It did not come from millions of years of social hierarchies where the lobsters duked it out and eventually organized themselves into the early beginnings of the modern state, which then condescended to give free speech to mankind.

We need to ask ourselves - Do “we hold these truths to be self-evident” or not? Are all people endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, or aren’t they?

When "Christians” reject the book of Genesis and reject creation, they also undermine the rights the Creator gave humanity.. Evolution is undermining the concept of God-given individual rights every day, all around the world. The Declaration of Independence says rights come from the Creator. Darwinism says rights come from the state.

With evolution being taught around the world, is it any wonder that the concept of inalienable rights is also weakening simultaneously?

Christians need to stop pretending that evolution and Christianity are harmonious. They aren’t. The plain word of Scripture simply does not allow for that interpretation.

Darwin didn’t love you, but Jesus does. So, pick a side.

France Burns, Prophecy Fulfilling

By Wings of Liberty • October 20, 2026

France reaped in blood the harvest of her submission to Rome. Where France, under Romanism, had set up the first stake at the opening of the Reformation, there the Revolution set up its first guillotine. On the spot where the first martyrs to the Protestant faith were burned in the sixteenth century, the first victims were guillotined in the eighteenth. When the restraints of God’s law were cast aside, the nation swept on to revolt and anarchy. The war against the Bible stands in world history as the Reign of Terror. He who triumphed today was condemned tomorrow. Ellen G. White France is burning again. Student protests which began September 18 escalated to hundreds of thousands demonstrating in Paris in October. Nearly 30,000 protesters occupied the Place de la Bastille on October 6, the location of the beginning of the original French Revolution. They clashed repeatedly with police, and thousands were arrested, mostly minors. The protests continued in coming days until they erupted into a full-blown riot on October 17 and 18 as up to 800,000 protesters across the country stormed the streets. Stores were ransacked. Historic buildings burnt. Masked gangs of youths chanted “everyone hates the police”, and “We are storming the Bastille”, while looting luxury stores like Rolex, Gucci, Ralph Lauren and Luis Vuitton. At least 2400 people were arrested over 48 hours, but water canons and tear gas proved largely ineffective as the raging mobs comprised of students, union workers, and migrants, overwhelmed law enforcement. One resident summed up the feeling of French residents, and the world at large: it was "terrifying" to see groups of young people "smashing everything, with total impunity". 1 Terrifying, indeed. A new “Reign of Terror”.

THE TYRANNY OF THE MACHINE

By Wings of Liberty • October 2, 2026

If I had a question, I used to find a man and ask him. “Tell me what you know – tell me what you lived – show me the way.” I could look into a faded eye still sharp, shake a rough hand still sure. He had travelled in the way of difficulty, And known the meaning of friendship. I could trust when he said – “This is the way – Walk Ye In It.” But now you ask a machine that is not a man. Its answers are cold and immediate. But. It has not struggled, or faltered, or cried. It did not sweat, it cannot fight, it has not bled. It is neither brother nor father nor friend. But it is your new authority. … There is an inexorable tragedy to the authority of the machine. Millions and millions of people, all around the world, moment by moment, asking a foreign, inhuman intelligence for the answers to their questions. And not only their innocuous questions about how to change a tire, or how to start a lawnmower. Their deepest questions. Questions about history, and truth and the meaning of life and the future. Step by inexorable step, mankind is being trained to trust and rely on the wisdom and authority of the machine. “I asked ChatGPT and it said…, so I did…” “Grok told me to…” There was a time not so long ago when people sought the opinion and expertise of other people for information. We asked human beings – actual real warm human beings, like us. We had social cohesion and community. That time is rapidly fading away and in its place is reliance on an inhuman intelligence we are told is superior to our own. And what makes it superior? It is not alive. Yet it speaks with authority to those who are, as though it were impossible that it were wrong. Yet it is frequently wrong. People ignore its hallucinations and deceptions, and keep asking it their questions. Though it has shown itself to be malicious, cold and sometimes deceitful, the masses still trust it and make it their confidant. There is something very wrong in all of this. The day will surely come when it will mislead humanity en masse. When it does, few will question its authority because society has been trained, and trained well, to accept it as god. The few who question and dissent with the machine will be proscribed and denounced because they refuse to bend the knee to this pretender to deity and its oligarchical handlers. There is an enormous perversity to a society which has rejected creation, rejected the Creator God, rejected His authority, rejected His law, rejected His personal care and sacrifice and warmth toward humanity in the person of Jesus Christ, who became One of Us, a Man – yet embraces and submits to a technocratic tyrant god of its own making, a cold, impersonal tyrant god, and whose will it will do. It is the very essence of a new and degrading modern form of idolatry. In the beginning, God gave mankind dominion over the earth. Man sold that dominion to the serpent at the tree at the beginning, falling captive to a deceptive artifice – a ruse of intelligence. The serpent could talk, and it had an answer for everything. It said it was wiser than the word of God, even. We can all see the day coming when mankind will trust artificial intelligence above the plain word of God. It does already, does it not? A closing word below from the pen of one who saw these things so clearly and so long ago. It was the Maker of all things who ordained the wonderful adaptation of means to end, of supply to need. It was He who in the material world provided that every desire implanted should be met. It was He who created the human soul, with its capacity for knowing and for loving. And He is not in Himself such as to leave the demands of the soul unsatisfied. No intangible principle, no impersonal essence or mere abstraction, can satisfy the needs and longings of human beings in this life of struggle with sin and sorrow and pain. It is not enough to believe in law and force, in things that have no pity, and never hear the cry for help. We need to know of an almighty arm that will hold us up, of an infinite Friend that pities us. We need to clasp a hand that is warm, to trust in a heart full of tenderness. And even so God has in His word revealed Himself. – {Ed 133.2} This article is written entirely by a man, not a machine.

DENIALISM, A Noun: Rejecting Propositions Supported By Clear Evidence

By Wings of Liberty • September 17, 2026

The general denial of Babylon to the approaching threat of Cyrus the Great in 539 B.C. uncomfortably mirrors the stupor of the average American in 2026. As Cyrus approached the city of Babylon with his army, Babylon partied because they believed that their city was impregnable. The city was well-stocked with food. It had an endless supply of water. Its walls were thick – too thick for any siege engine of the ancient world to overcome. Inside the walls, Babylon partied like it was never going to end. The word on the street was, “Cyrus who?” Babylon was once the greatest nation in the world – the “glory of nations”, according to Isaiah 13:19. But it fell through a combination of mismanagement, corruption, and vice. At the twilight of its reign it offered one last crowning insult to the Creator God which sealed its fate. King Belshazzar ordered the sacred vessels from the temple in Jerusalem to be used to toast his heathen deities. That was the night Babylon fell. Today, America, still the greatest nation in the world, is facing mounting obstacles on seemingly every side. It is 40+ Trillion dollars in debt and counting. The nations of the world increasingly refuse US bond offerings, driving both interest rates [1] and payments on debt held by foreign nations, up. The dollar is under increasing threat around the world because of the never-ending excesses of money printing. The man on the street, however, is absorbed in getting those devalued dollars, and thinks little, if at all, of the debt crisis threatening his country. Many foreign nations resent the greenback hegemony. No other nation on earth can simply manufacture endless money out of thin air to fund its war machine without severely devaluing its currency and crippling its economy. The BRICS payment method proposes an alternative to the US dollar system. [2] The BRICS economies represent 40% of global trade. Their influence is not insignificant. 40% of global trade utilizing non-dollar exchange platforms would result in a commensurate loss in both power and influence for the world’s superpower. There are other signs of crisis. In America, Congress has lost control of the war power. [3] Congress has the exclusive right to declare war pursuant to Article I, Section 8, Clause 11. But the war in Iran has not been authorized by Congress. It was initiated by the Executive Branch. The nation that is “Not At War” with Iran has depleted its munitions [4] and its strategic oil reserve via its “non-war that is really a war”. [5] Efforts to return the power to declare war to Congress this week were stymied by the Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. [6] Johnson, an Evangelical dispensationalist who does not believe in the separation of church and state, believes that there is “a biblical admonition to stand with Israel.” [7] Israel wants America to be at war with Iran, so… Meanwhile, diesel has hit $10/gallon in some places in California due to the crippling taxes in that state, as well as the closure of most gasoline refineries. And while $10/gallon diesel is not the national norm, oil executives are sounding the alarm over the depleted petroleum reserve, rising prices and the potential for shortages in some places. Some analysts are again calling for $200/barrel oil, [8] or more. Much more. We note that Babylon did not fall until its blasphemous insult to the God of heaven. Even though every sign points to looming existential crisis in the western world, Bible prophecy indicates that it is not until church and state unite to compel observance of the “Day of the Sun”, also known as Sunday, that catastrophic and irreversible unravelling occurs. The parallels are clear. But that does not mean that the signs of Babylon’s pending fall were not present before it happened. Cyrus camped outside the city with his army for some time, making efforts to enter the city through the partially diverted Euphrates. When the water was low enough, he marched under the walls and took the city virtually unopposed. His presence outside the walls were an indication of what was about to transpire. Today, there are growing rumors of a push to unite church and state in the western world – a final act of rebellion against the God of heaven. The signs of the times abound. A word of warning to the inhabitants of modern Babylon is in order. --------------------------------------------------------- 1. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/terrible-20y-auction-prices-huge-tail-lowest-foreign-demand-record 2 https://www.brics-info.org/f59880488935cdcfd5d13a33d95be2f4/ ; https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2026/01/29/brics-payment-settlement-the-quest-and-implications/ 3 https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/war_powers ; https://www.newsweek.com/pete-hegseth-popularity-hits-record-low-as-massie-pushes-impeachment-12451574 4 https://www.outlookindia.com/international/us-flags-munition-shortfalls-as-iran-war-cost-hits-334-billion-pentagon 5 https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/general/oil-executives-say-the-great-fuel-crisis-is-here/ar-AA2cd9KX 6 https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/speaker-johnson-recesses-house-early-blocking-massies-push-to-impeach-hegseth 7 . https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2024/04/21/speaker_johnson_on_israel_aid_package_for_those_of_us_who_are_believers_its_a_biblical_admonition_to_stand_with_israel.html 8. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4945955-saudi-arabia-under-attack-oil-should-be-above-200
