Just In Time For Christmas, Satanic Sculpture ‘Snaketivity’ Installed At Illinois Statehouse By Followers From Chicago Satanic Temple

It’s a gift from the Chicago branch of The Satanic Temple. Called “Snaketivity,” and was installed this week at the rotunda at the Illinois statehouse.

In the Illinois Capitol rotunda this month, several traditions are being celebrated. There’s a Nativity scene for Christmas, a menorah for Hanukkah, and then something a little different: an arm holding an apple, with a snake coiled around it.

One of the hallmarks of the Obama administration was the dramatic rise in activity by groups like the Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple. For some reason, they just felt comfortable enough from 2008 to 2016 to slither out of their pit and begin promoting their nonsense.

“For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:5 (KJV)

I think watching President Obama support taxpayer-funded abortion, same-sex marriage, attacks on Christian bakers, and the executions at Benghazi they began to feel right at home.

Satanic Sculpture Installed At Illinois Statehouse, Just In Time For The Holidays

FROM NPR: It’s a gift from the Chicago branch of The Satanic Temple. Called “Snaketivity,” the work also has a sign that reads “Knowledge Is The Greatest Gift.” Nearby stands a sign in which the state offers a civics lesson — and explains it didn’t have much of a choice:

“The State of Illinois is required by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution to allow temporary, public displays in the state capitol so long as these displays are not paid for by taxpayer dollars. Because the first floor of the Capitol Rotunda is a public place, state officials cannot legally censor the content of speech or displays. The United States Supreme Court has held that public officials may legally impose reasonable time, place and manner restrictions regarding displays and speeches, but no regulation can be based on the content of the speech.”

Illinois Secretary of State spokesman Dave Druker told The State Journal-Record the temple has the same rights as religious organizations. “This recognizes that.”

The Satanic Temple calls itself a “non-theistic organization” in its application to install the display.

In a GoFundMe campaign to raise $1,500 for the display, the group explains its mission: “The Satanic Temple—Chicago will no longer allow one religious perspective to dominate the discourse in the Illinois State Capitol rotunda during the holiday season. … Please consider what you may do to help us bring Satan to Springfield!”

The group has installed similar displays in other states in recent years. A more snake-prominent version of the display has been a part of the holiday scene on the lawn of the Michigan Capitol. Outside the Arkansas State Capitol in August, the temple presented a statue of a goat-headed creature named Baphomet, flanked by two children looking up at him, to protest a display of the Ten Commandments.

Despite its name, many of the Satanic Temple’s activities demonstrate a particular concern for fighting — or at least revealing — the influence of religion in public life. And satanic sculptures have so far been an effective legal strategy for making its case.

On its website, the Satanic Temple explains that its mission “is to encourage benevolence and empathy among all people, reject tyrannical authority, advocate practical common sense and justice, and be directed by the human conscience to undertake noble pursuits guided by the individual will.”

The temple has also taken steps to protect its trademarks, especially against depictions that present its symbols as actually nefarious. Last month, the temple settled a lawsuit with Warner Bros. and Netflix, after a reboot of the teen witch show Sabrina used a copy of the goat-headed statue in an episode. The temple argued the statue “not only infringed on its copyright, but damaged its reputation by portraying the statue as evil,” The New York Times reported. READ MORE

The Cultural Affairs Committee In New York City Have Called For The Immediate Removal Of Statues Of George Washington For Reparations Task Force

Published

Money should be found to remove statues of America’s founding fathers like George Washington in New York City as a ‘Reparations Task Force’ committee is created

America is being hollowed out, eaten away on the inside by forces conspiring against her just as we first told you when Now The End Begins first started back in 2009. We wrote that “for generations the Bible has warned of the coming End of Days, and you are now living in that time. America, a nation raised up by the Hand of God to spread the gospel and to be a beacon of Freedom for people around the world is about to be forever silenced by those sworn to protect her – her leaders.” What we told you was coming then is now almost complete here in 2023.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

Our Founding Fathers were far from perfect men, they all had their faults and flaws. But God used them to create a nation around the King James Bible that is nearly as unique on Earth as the nation of Israel is. No other nation in modern times has been as lauded and as celebrated as America, and rightly so. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and all the others we remember to this day for the amazing work that they started which is still in effect 247 years later. But this is what the enemies of America hate, they hate our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution and the men who put pen to ink to birth it all.

For 14 years now, we’ve been warning you that America is being removed brick by brick, and right now we are about out of bricks.

New York City threatens statues of Washington, Columbus and Jefferson over slavery links and mulls reparations task force

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The city’s Cultural Affairs Committee has demanded the eviction of George Washington and Christopher Columbus and others from public spaces because of links to slavery, along with the establishment of a reparations task force. The plans before the city council on Tuesday come after Mayor Eric Adams warned that New Yorkers face a ‘financial tsunami’ from the cost of providing for more than 10,000 new migrants a month.

But they have prompted fury as the city scratches around for resources with libraries, meals for senior citizens and childcare all now at risk. ‘This is little more than an attempt by the radical left to rewrite our nation’s history,’ said City Councilor Joann Ariola.

‘The Founding Fathers and the others who worked so hard to establish this great country should be celebrated, not eliminated from memory.’

The Committee plans to remove any public statue or work of art that ‘depicts a person who owned enslaved persons or directly benefited economically from slavery, or who participated in systemic crimes against indigenous peoples or other crimes against humanity’. Dozens of prominent statues across the city are at risk including those depicting Thomas Jefferson and former governor Peter Stuyvesant.

Anti-racism training would be introduced for contractors and city employees, and a task force would ‘consider the impact of slavery and past injustices for African Americans in New York City and reparations for such injustices’.

‘Explanatory plaques’ would be installed next to any statue not removed and on schools named after them.

Meanwhile an injunction was filed overnight against the Mayor’s plans to set up a shelter for migrants at the historic Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn. More than 110,000 asylum seekers have arrived in the city since the Spring of 2022 with New Yorkers paying an average of $385 a night per migrant family.

Mayor Adams has pleaded for federal help in footing the bill and lashed out at Greg Abbott as a ‘madman’ after the Texas governor bussed thousands from his state. READ MORE

Social Media Reveals The Demonic Spirit Of Violence Openly At Work As The World Continues To Prepare Itself To Meet The Coming Antichrist

The New Hampshire father of two who died after an incident at Gillette Stadium during the New England Patriots game Sunday had been punched in the face and knocked unconscious by a Miami Dolphins fan, as the spirit of Antichrist rises

A few weeks ago, we wrapped up our 5-part series on the Mark of the Beast, and in the 5th installment we showed you how the spirit of Antichrist is already alive and working in these closing moments of the Church Age. What does it look like? It looks exactly like a violent fight at a football game that results in the beating death of a man while his wife helplessly looks on. This happened during the Sunday night football game at Patriots stadium.

And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:” 2 Thessalonians 2:8 (KJB)

Spend 5 minutes on social media, and you will see video after video taken in cities all across America showing violent attacks and beatdowns at fast food restaurants, movie theaters, shopping centers and school hallways. Life was not like this when I was younger, it was not like this 10 years ago. But ever since the events which began in 2020 started, there is an obvious and undeniable spirit of evil that is ever rising and persistent.

Patriots fan dies after getting punched ‘in the face’ by Dolphins supporter at Gillette Stadium: witness

FROM THE NY POST: Dale Mooney, 53, was treated at the scene by EMTs and rushed to a hospital after what had been described as an “apparent medical event,” but was pronounced dead shortly before midnight. A spectator has now claimed that he witnessed a physical altercation between Mooney and a Dolphins fan.

“The Dolphins fan walks over and clearly punches him in the face,” Joey Kilmartin, of Nashua, New Hampshire, told MassLive. “(He) gets knocked out and you can tell right away he’s not OK.”

Kilmartin told the news outlet that Mooney also had gotten into a physical confrontation with other fans toward the end of the fourth quarter. He said Mooney never regained consciousness after being punched and that the EMTs performed CPR on him before rushing him to Sturdy Memorial Hospital in Attleboro.

Mooney’s wife, Lisa, said she feels “numb” and is seeking answers about the tragedy.

“I want to know what happened. What caused this?” she told WCVB. “I just don’t understand why people have to go to that extreme. Why can’t it just be fun? That’s all it’s supposed to be — a fun family event.” READ MORE

The Sustainable Development Goals Summit At The United Nations Today Discussing Mandatory Vaccinations, Digital ID And Sustainable Cities

Published

on

united-nations-sdg-sustainable-development-goals-un-agenda-2030-spike-cia
SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

In 2015, more than 190 world leaders committed to 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to help us all end extreme poverty, fight inequality & injustice, and fix climate change. Bible believers call this the New World Order.

If have haven’t listened to our Podcast today where we told you about a 2003 book called ‘The 2030 Spike’ and why it’s in the library at the CIA, you really should go and listen to it. To say it’s a ‘eye-opener’ would be a severe understatement. One of the things we told you about is the meeting taking place today and tomorrow at the UN called the SDG Summit, which we warned you about back in July. The ‘sustainable development goals’ of the United Nations sound like a good thing, but upon closer inspection, they herald the New World Order.

“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)

Among the many SDG’s the UN is fomenting upon us, we have gender equality, global vaccinations, and of course, digital ID not just for you but for the entire family. Top of the list is the ‘sustainable cities’ mandate which is already underway in a pilot program in 14 American cities right now. It’s all about restricting our movement, confining us in 15-minute cities which is all part of the coming kingdom of Antichrist. The Sustainable Development Goals were developed in 2015, with a target date of 2030 for completion. Things are nearly in place.

The SDG Summit is happening now at the United Nations in New York City

FROM THE UNITED NATIONS: The United Nations will convene the SDG Summit on 18-19 September 2023 at its Headquarters in New York, during the General Assembly high-level week. With the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development at midpoint, world leaders will carry out a comprehensive review of the state of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), respond to the impact of multiple and interlocking crises facing the world, and provide high-level political guidance on transformative and accelerated actions towards the target year of 2030.

But the Agenda is a promise, not a guarantee. At the halftime mark, the promise is in deep peril. For the first time in decades, development progress is reversing under the combined impacts of climate disasters, conflict, economic downturn and lingering COVID-19 effects. The SDG Summit serves as a rallying cry to recharge momentum, for world leaders to come together, to reflect on where we stand and resolve to do more. It is a moment to recommit to a vision of the future that ensures no one is left behind. Fundamental shifts in commitment, solidarity, financing and action must put us back on track to end poverty, realize just societies and reset a balanced relationship with the natural world.
