not from the Word of God.

The very term "team player," implies ecumenism, compromise, and dipping your sails as a Christian, i.e., hiding your light for Jesus under a bushel (Luke 11:33). John the Baptist was NOT a team player! John rocked the boat, shook the tree, stirred the pot, and it made certain people angry. In fact, he was about as individual as you can get, living out in the wilderness, dressing in camel's hair, and eating wild locusts for food. John was the real deal, no gimmicks. Some people had gone out to the wilderness to see the man whom they'd heard so much about, John the Baptist. They were shocked at what they found. Jesus says to them in Matthew 11:7,8... "What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment?..." You see, they hadn't found the fancy-pants preacher they had expected. No, they found the real deal. It's no different today. The worse pastors and preachers in America drive expensive cars, live in big houses, and dine at the fanciest restaurants. My mentor, and beloved pastor, Dr. Jack Hyles, pastored the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana for over 42 years. He built a church of over 1,000,000 members, and yet his favorite meal was a MacDonald's Quarter Pounder with Cheese. He lived in a normal sized house, drove a standard car, and wore a regular suit. Dr. Hyles spoke his mind, and just as John the Baptist, made certain people angry. Pastor Hyles was an individual, and didn't follow a denominational convention, or answer to a pulpit committee. By the way, no true man of God would ever allow a pulpit committee to oversee his sermons. Preaching ought to come from the man of God's heart. and not from what some pulpit committee tells him to preach. Pulpit committees are of the Devil. Bible-believing Christians are commonly labeled as being hatemongers, narrowminded, bigoted, shallow, and now even as terrorists. I'm as narrow-minded as the Bible. There can be NO compromise between Bible-believing Christians and the woeful sins of homosexuality, abortion, divorce, feminism, witchcraft, gambling, drunkenness, fornication, et cetera. America is infested with prophets-for-hire, such as was Balaam in the Old Testament. America needs more Billy Sundays, who uncompromisingly preach against sin without apology, and give the Devil a black eye. Now there's certainly nothing wrong with working together as a group to accomplish something worthy, good, and wholesome; BUT, many of the Godless agendas of our time, such as homosexuality, are rotten to the core, and there can be NO diversity, compromise, or team work. The only type of Christian that a homosexual will accept is a compromised believer, who is silent concerning his Biblical beliefs against homosexuality (Romans 1:24-32). Daniel was cast into the lion's den ALONE. David went out to fight Goliath ALONE. Jeremiah was cast into a miry pit of clay ALONE. John the Baptist was a voice (singular) crying from the wilderness ALONE. Stephen was stoned to death, being ALONE. Throughout the Scriptures we read that God's servants often were required to stand, and suffer, alone for their faith. The stood as individuals, suffered as

individuals, and oftentimes were martyred as individuals.

Individualism and the New Age Movement

We are living in the last days, and Satan wants the world to CONFORM, i.e., unite in an unholy alliance, to a New Age religion that teaches that there are many paths to the light, and no one path is the only way. In sharp contrast, the Word of God proclaims in John 14:6 that Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to Heaven! There's no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Freemasons call their god The Great Architect, because they claim no one knows who God really is, or which path to Heaven is correct. Freemasons are LIARS! Jesus Christ is, and has always been, the ONLY way to Heaven (Acts 4:10-12). New Age is the religion of the New World Order, i.e., the Beast system of the coming Antichrist. The pioneers of New Age thinking were Satanists, witches, and occultists, such as the founder of The Theosophical Society, Helen Blavatsky. Satan is working relentlessly to unite the world once more in apostasy, as he did at Babel. The New World Order will be comprised of a one-world religion, a one-world economy (i.e., a cashless society), a one-world government (controlled by the demonic Council On Foreign Relations). This is the Beast system of the Antichrist, the 7th of the "kings" mentioned in Revelation 17:10. The 8th "king" will be the Antichrist himself (17:11). Individualism is the enemy of the New World Order. Even professed Christians today have surrendered their individuality to conform to the Satanic agendas of our time.

Be An Individual
The people of the United States have been brainwashed to believe that Democracy is freedom; BUT, Democracy is Not Freedom (by Congressman Ron Paul). In a Democracy, majority vote rules, but what if the majority is wrong? Democracy fails to recognize the individual. As Christians, we must never lose our individuality. No multitude has ever trusted Christ as a group decision. Acts 2:41 tells us that

3,000 souls were saved on the Day of Pentecost; YET, each and every one of those people had to make a personal, i.e., individual, decision to believe on Jesus Christ to be saved. Point being, we are saved as an INDIVIDUAL, and thus, we should live the Christian life as such. Think for yourself! In sharp contrast, Roman Catholics are trusting their Church, collectively, to save them. Many people today foolishly think that some group, or religious organization, is going to save them from Hell and take them to Heaven when they die. No such nonsense is taught in the Scriptures. We are saved as individuals. Salvation is a personal decision. As the New World Order advances, individualism will be increasingly attacked. Whereas American society used to recognize things more in terms of black and white, today the lines of right and wrong have been deliberately obscured by Communist agendas intended to destroy our nation from within. The public school system was the fulfillment of Karl Marx's 10th Plank of his Communist Manifesto! Through the Godless institution of the public school system, children's faith in God is being robbed by the hideous lies of Evolution being taught. Children are been brainwashed to believe that homosexuality is acceptable, and of course, without a God there can be no moral issue. The heathen public school system was designed and implemented to... We'll, I'll let Communist sicko, George Brock Chisholm, tell you once more...

"To achieve world government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism, loyalty to family tradition, national patriotism, and religious dogmas."

If we lose our self-identity as Christians, then Satan has successfully caused us to disappear, which is exactly what "devour" means in 1st Peter 5:8... "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." Satan desires to render every believer useless, as a lame duck sitting in the water. Remember, Satan's only goal for our life is to hinder us from doing God's will. It is by being an individual, that we will refuse to compromise and conform to the "team player" mentality, and rather, have a "Bible obeying" mentality. As a personal example: I attended Bible college years ago. During my first year of school, I noticed that 99% of the other men wore white shirts, which I generally wore

myself. But I decided to be different one day, and instead wore a 100% black shirt to chapel. It had the collar and buttons just like a businessman's white shirt, but it was black. Oh boy! I remember one student in particular, who approached me and said, "You are rebellious, and have a bad spirit, to wear a black shirt when you know that all your Christian brothers are wearing white." You see, he was upset because he felt that I should CONFORM to the common consensus, or the accepted standard. It perturbed him that anyone would dare to be different from the group. I wonder what he would have said if I wore camel's hair to chapel, like John the Baptist wore. Sadly, individuality is often shunned in the Christian community, when we should be the one's encouraging it. The opposite of individualism is conformity, which always leads to culture, and then apostasy. So I say, be an individual. Make your own decisions. Think for yourself. Refuse to go along with the New World Order.
