In this week’s study, I continue in Chapter 3, finishing up with Philadelphia
I continue with Dennis Cuddy ‘Religion and Government’ Part 3, Mass psychological control via the Tavistock Method was developed by the Tavistock Institute of Medical Psychology deputy director John Rawlings Rees, who coined the term "psychologically controlled environment" referring to use of mass media to manipulate certain population groups. On June 18, 1940, Rees said: "We can therefore justifiably stress our particular point of view with regard to the proper development of the human psyche...We have made a useful attack upon a number of professions. The two easiest of them naturally are the teaching profession and the Church." (See MENTAL HEALTH, vol.1, no.4, October 1940.) Note especially his reference to "the Church." In 1945, Rockefeller Foundation medical director Alan Gregg recommended a grant to begin the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations to see if wartime psycholgy could be used in civilian society.
I can’t but think how great Yahweh is, especially when He allows the movement of the Holy Spirit. Back in verse 8 we read of that ‘open door’. That door which is an opportunity for you and I to reach out and teach Yahweh’s Words (Logos) to the world, which by the way we are doing through the use of the internet. As that door of opportunity is opened, keep in mind that Satan cannot close it. Now that doesn’t mean we won’t have trials and tribulations has we carry out this task. Paul writes in 2 Timothy 2:9, “Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of Yahweh is not bound.” We can think of this door opening wide beginning with Martin Luther in 1517, that great reformation period.
Now keep in mind that as we walking through that door, WE WILL encounter many obstacles on our journey and let’s not get down on ourselves, we must remember what Yahweh told Jeremiah in Chapter 31 beginning with verse “Behold, the days come, saith Yahweh, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith Yahweh:
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith Yahweh, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their Elohim, and they shall be my people. (This is that ‘door opening’)
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yahweh: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith Yahweh: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Jer 31:35 Thus saith Yahweh, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; Yahweh of hosts is his name:
Jer 31:36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith Yahweh, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.
Don’t end up like those in Hosea 4:6 ‘My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God (Elohim), I will also forget thy children.’
But, be like those in 2Timothy 2:15 ‘Study to shew thyself approved unto God (Yahweh), a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.’
