By Dave Dormier November 13, 2021 - Let me introduce my friend Dave.  Every month we hold an apostolic/prophetic council meeting where we invite kingdom minded leaders from all 7 spheres to give us insight as to what the Church ought to pray.  Dave is one of those people and he is very much involved in Washington State government.  I've been meaning to write an article about oligarchies because that is what is in operation in our state and nation.  Then I discovered what Dave wrote, so with that in mind...

An Oligarchy
We as people of the United States and (I pray this for the whole world) formed our union of people and states to establish common law Justice, ensure domestic tranquility, promote the general welfare, and secure liberty for us and our following generations.

Each person and our political groups are entitled and empowered on this earth by the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God to their decent and opinions.  Self-evident is that all men are created equal and are endowed by our creator with unalienable rights of Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.  That to secure these rights governments are instituted by men and obtaining their just powers from the consent of the people.  This is the founding of the United States, making no law prohibiting the free exercise of your religion, stopping or intimidating people for their freedom of speech, and the right for people to peacefully assemble.  

This is not the current form of government in the United States.  Today our government is an Oligarchy federally, within states, and locally.
​
Oligarchy erases the distinction between public and private powers and replaces it with the distinction between those who are and are not part of the ruling class.  Oligarchy is by the ruling class of the few and is for the ruling class’s interest, welding coercive powers of government without legal limits as if dealing with their own private affairs.  Self-selected elites who claim to know better and who validate one another to wield their coercive powers.   

By Tim Taylor November 7, 2021 -  Romans 12:21 says, "do not be overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good." Here's the real challenge, almost 90% of the body of Christ today has never even read through the Bible one time.

The truth is, they are susceptible to every wind of doctrine and the cunning craftiness, deceitful plotting and trickery of men (Ephesians 4:14). Most have no idea what the Bible really calls evil nor what the Bible actually says is good.

In this short YouTube video click here, I share what God's word says about lying. It is evil. Clearly! Well, at least it is clear in the Bible. But if you look at how rampant it is in American society today then you discover how deviated our moral compass is. Did you know that God's word says in 1 John 3:8 that for this purpose was the Son of God manifested, to destroy the works of the evil one? How you destroy the works of the evil one? Obviously with truth.

There are consequences for speaking the truth. Jesus reveals the price in John 7:7 where He says the world hated Him because He testified of their evil works. At the same time In John 8:32 He reveals that truth sets people free. In other words, there is great reward too.

Our time on earth is short, eternity is forever. There are eternal consequences for our choices/decisions/judgments today. I choose to live with a view towards eternity. That is wisdom. How about you?

By Tim Taylor August 8, 2021 - Jesus said in Matthew 24:24-25, "For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand."

A synonym for deceive is fool. Candidly, I have marveled at how evil has masked its lies with half-truths such that fundamental long held truths and principles are being abandoned or forgotten such that Isaiah 5:20 has manifested today before our very eyes.  I've never seen evil called good and good called evil on such a wide scale.  Have you? 

Never have there been so many weak-minded weak-willed people that the demonic is able to manipulate.  The best deceptions have copious amounts of truth.  But today it seems like the demonic is even able to use less truth to spout even greater lies and people are so deceived they not only believe but defend the lie.  It's like a spiritual Stockholm Syndrome.  Don't know what Stockholm Syndrome is?  It' is a mental disorder.  Their thinking is screwed up.  They've been fooled.  

When is the last time you took a look at the Bible to see what is says about fools?  There are three kinds of fools revealed in scripture.  One kind of fool is a good fool.  The question is, what kind of fool are you?  Click here for Have You Been Fooled! 

Tim Taylor June 23, 2021 - Recently in "Is There Not a Cause" I provided background for the conflict we find ourselves in called the "Great Reset."  I see it as just the latest version of Revelation 12 and Daniel 7:25.  It's the conflict that spilled from heaven to earth and it is part of Satan's attempts to change times and laws through his people.  This conflict, this Great Reset with all of its collateral components which include but are not limited to things like the pandemic, the socialist agenda of nations, BLM, ANTIFA, Climate Change, Transgenderism, the LGBTQ agenda, Critical Race Theory, stealing elections, violating First Amendment rights, hijacking the Civil Rights Movement, overtaking schools to use as their bully pulpits for socialism, controlling the narrative of major media.... sets the stage for a spiritual battle in every jurisdiction from the city to the nation.  

This is our situation.  This is our valley of decision! 

It is the responsibility and heaven's mandate for God's people to pray, proclaim and act to see His will done on earth as it is in heaven.   Just as David rose to meet the giant of his day, I believe there is a people like him, a Davidic generation, a remnant Church who'll arise and proclaim as King David did in Psalm 17:1, "Hear a just cause O Lord and attend to my cry.  Give ear to my prayer which is not from deceitful lips."  This scripture is the inspiration for "Operation Just Cause."

For the last two months we've been working with teams of apostolic and prophetic leaders who are engaged in the government, business, and church spheres.  Our intention was to discover what was God's word and His will concerning His ecclesia's role in this Great Reset.  

Here's what we Discovered! 

By Tim Taylor May 26, 2021 - This past weekend I saw members of our church, of which some were public school teachers, interacting about Critical Race Theory.  My job description comes from the Lord Ephesians 4:11-15 where it says, and please note the underlines:

"And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ."

The goal is the equip each person to serve as a minister.  Now our folks discerned well.  But I have seen many in Christendom who do not know how to discern.  With that in mind, the scripture revealed that the standard is to which we compare ourselves to is Christ.  The challenge is immaturity, changing winds of doctrine, trickery of men along with their deceitful plotting.  My assignment, the believer’s assignment, is to speak the truth in love. 

To equip the believer in Jesus Christ to serve as a minister they must mature.  Hebrews 5:12-14 tells us that the mature believer can discern between good and evil. Discern also means judge.  1 Corinthians 2:14-15 teaches us that the mature, spiritually discerning one does not judge people, as that is the Lord's job, but they do judge things such as words and actions.  How do you decide?  You compare the words and actions you observe to God's word.  

That statement reveals one of the biggest challenges today.  That is ignorance of God's word.  The American Bible Society reported that in 2020 only 9% read their Bible daily.  Barna reported in a report about a decade ago that only 11% have read through their Bible once and recently they reported that only 19% of Christians hold a Biblical worldview.  

Hosea 4:6 says, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge..."

Without the knowledge of God's word, you cannot judge or discern.  You see my opinion means nothing.  God's word, which is the Truth, means everything for that is what will ultimately judge us.  Jesus said in John 12:47-48:

"And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day."

(Tim Taylor - October 19, 2020) Do you strain at a gnat and swallow a camel?  Then you might be a modern-day Pharisee!  

You see, we’ve entered into a period of time where the Church, nations and the world have been brought into a valley of decision.  A valley is a low point, and the analogy in Joel 3 speaks of a moral low point where PEOPLE’s decisions reveal the true condition of their heart. 

Hebrews 5:12-14 2 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Can you discern?  Can you decide?  Can you recognize good and evil? 

Or will you find yourself in Isaiah 5:20 where you become one of the ones who call evil good and good evil?  Or will you find yourself in the camp of the Pharisees, you know, the ones who Jesus accused in Matthew 23:24 of straining at a gnat while swallowing a camel because their attention to personal details in people’s lives blinded them to the weightier matters of justice, mercy and truth. 

True mercy can never exist without justice and justice can never really exist without truth.
​
In my last video I inserted a Pharisee detector.  I used a phrase to check to see if you were one who strained at a gnat while swallowing a camel.  I wanted to see if you were more offended by my phrase, “what the hell,”, or, if you were more offended because of laws which originated in hell were passed that encouraged the people to commit and abominations, which are acts which trigger a spiritual law that causes the very land to vomit the inhabitants out. 

In my lifetime I have never seen lying, hypocrisy and the incredible lack of judgment revealed in the pulpit as I have today.

Matthew 23:23-24 says:

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.  Blind guides, who strain out a gnat and swallow a camel!

Today, many are hyper focused on President Trump’s personal behavior while they are blind to the “weightier matters” like Justice.  Justice cannot exist without truth.  True mercy cannot exist without true justice.  So, if you find yourself hyper focused on President Trumps personal behavior or focused on his behavior from 20 years before he received Christ, and you neglect facts like:

by Tim Taylor, July 6, 2020: Black Lives Matter (BLM) has come to the forefront of the civil rights movement but its practices and ideology are far different than the civil rights movement led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.  Why?  It's because of their worldview and their ideology.  An in-depth look at the ideological foundation of their founders will provide great insight to help us discern the fruit of the BLM organization. 

There is a basic principle found in God's word which teaches us that if the root is good the fruit is good.  We find this concept first introduced in Genesis 1:11 which says it this way and note my underlines.  "Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so.  If you plant an apple seed you are going to get apples.  Not pears!  True?  Of course! 

In Matthew 7:15 -16 Jesus warns us about false prophets.  He tells us how to recognize them in verse 16.  He says in Matthew 7:15-20 and note my underlines, "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

What fruit is Jesus refering to?  I submit you that it refers to the characteristics of character and the results that accompany the practice of those character traits.  Consider the following scriptures and note the underlines.

John 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.  

John 10:10 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-10 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

Galatians 5:19-24  Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.  
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires

The Three Founders of Black Lives Matter

by Tim Taylor, June 10, 2020:  Or we could call this "Discover Brilliant Solutions by Consulting the Creator of the Universe." The George Floyd case has been hijacked by various organizations and groups using witchcraft, lies, manipulation, and half-truths to play with the emotions of people serves as the context for these thoughts from God's word.  The goal of this article is help us view problems and solutions through a Biblical worldview.  That means God's word is used to frame the issues, not Islam, not Republicans, not Democrats, not any other religion and certainly not the major media of today.  Let us begin with some fundamental truths.

1.  My Personal Opinion Does Not Matter
The only one whose opinion matters is God's truth compared to your opinion.  Why?  Because one day each one of us will stand alone before Him to give an account of our life (Revelation 20:11).  Jesus said in Matthew 12:36-37 "But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."  In John 12:47-48 7 He says, "And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day ."  

Our words will be compared to God's words.  He spoke first!  Therefore, it is up to us to compare our words and actions with His word.  Bottom line, you and I have to judge.  Do we choose to abide by and honor His word?  Or, will we choose to ignore His word. 

2. God is the Creator of the Universe
God knows how everything works.  He is the Creator.  The Bible He gave us is His operator's manual.  It describes how everything works and it describes the consequences for trying to operate life outside its design parameters.  In fact, there are actions which if taken can void the warranty if you know what I mean.  The cool thing is, if you choose to change your mind you, or repent, then you can also reinstate the eternal warranty.  Bottom line, God knows how the world works. He designed it.  Not me nor you!  

By Tim Taylor February 16, 2020: In Matthew 24 Jesus' disciples asked Him about the end of the age and the signs of the end-times.  The very first sign Jesus mentions is deception.  In verse 4 He says, "take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name saying ’I am the Christ' and will deceive many...." 

The key to addressing deception is discernment. 

Sadly, there are numerous example that I could draw from that highlights the lack of discernment in the body of Christ.  I could point to the over 15 yearlong fall of a Todd Bently, not being able to distinguish between Holy Spirit and demonic spirits, to the number of churches/denominations who've abandoned the faith even rewriting scripture so as to condone ordaining ministers who practice lifestyles the Bible calls an abomination (ie. Leviticus 18:1-25 - includes fornication, adultery, incest, homosexuality and abortion), to electing candidates and supporting political parties who enact laws which are directly contrary to God's word.  

Moral compromise, ignorance of God's word and the lack of a personal daily prayer life has resulted in an ignorant and therefore easily deceived Church.  Add to that a lack conviction because of fear, greed or a combination of both and we'll find a Church at large which is almost irrelevant to society except for a small remnant.  

Yet I have great hope. Why?  Because the cannon of scripture promises revival, a mature Church (spotless bride) and an incredible end-time harvest and some of God's prophets have recently  prophesied the same.   2 Chronicles 20:20 tells us we'll be blessed and prosper if we believe God's prophets. 

The Key to Fulfillment of Prophetic Words 
However, you'll find that most prophetic words are conditional.  Prophetic words often remain unfulfilled until someone or some group motivated by the love of God and informed by the wisdom of God put their faith into action so as to bring the prophecy from a vision or spoken word into manifested reality.  My friends, James 2:20 is so clear.  Faith without works is dead.  You show me your faith without your works and I'll show you my faith by what I do. 

Those works minus the love of God is useless (1 Corinthians 13:1).  Those works minus the wisdom of God is fruitless and often destructive.  The key to this revival is the Church awakening to the truth of God's word.  

Therefore I'm praying for a revival of discernment. I'm praying for the revival of true character with true miracles and healings.  

Revival Requires Discernment
