You may call her Karen, but the spirit behind her is Jezebel, a spirit of control.
And it is not exclusive to women. Men can be just as filled with that same spirit of control, that same Jezebel spirit.
Look around the world. You car, once your dream vehicle, was an embodiment of your freedom to go anywhere on this continent with the wide open road in front of you and a limitless supply of gas. Today the car scolds you. It scolds you when you back up and come within 7 feet of another object. It scolds you when you parallel park and come within 4 feet of another car’s bumper. Oh, and does it ever scold you when you go three minutes to the grocery store to pickup something you forgot and decide to go without your seatbelt on.
These alarms do not protect you. They, instead, make you dull to the realities of life. One of those realities is that it is your job to protect yourself. After you hear one or two alarms over the course of a day, the alarms lose their ability to alarm you. You grow callous to them. They do not alarm you, but they nag you. They are not safety. They are behavior control. And that car of yours was designed with lots of behavior control functions as the Jezebel spirit ran amok in the engineering department of that car company.
Your kitchen appliances scold you. Your phone scolds you. It even scolds you when someone you have never met has abducted someone else you have never met.
It is preposterous to imagine your machines that you purchased having any business scolding you, but, well, that is the norm in the world today, and so few upright people stand firm against it, refusing to be scolded by their servant devices. So few of us stand up enough to demand that anyone they buy from be devoid of that Jezebel spirit, that spirit of control.
How preposterous for the servant to scold the master.
Servant Scolding The Master
Except, in 2020, Anthony Fauci rose to power and ushered in corona communism alongside many colleagues. And the servant scolded the master. Servant government scolded the citizen master. Alarms sounded daily, hardly did a day go by without an alarming news report. And then hourly. And then constantly. Servant media scolded the viewing master. Servant doctor even scolded the patient master. The less you stood firm, the more Jezebel took ground.
You may see a grown man when you look at Anthony Fauci. I see a child who has yet to grow up and who welcomes the most devious spirits into his life. Among them are a spirit of deceit, a spirit of control, and a spirit of abuse.
He looks and feels like many career powerbrokers. He even feels like many in Hollywood. Hardly is there a line to be drawn between them. The behaviors are so similar.
Some human behaviors are such effective enablers of the Jezebel spirit, an enabler of the demand for control.
Abuse Is The Forcible Creation Of Room For Jezebel In The Life Of Another
A long line of cults have existed that have helped make room for the Jezebel spirit. Sexualize a child, abuse a child, and that child will grow up knowing what it feels like to have lost control.
That child will have a very hard time making room for God in his heart, will have a hard time entirely surrendering, because doing so requires total vulnerability.
The Jezebel spirit is the opposite of welcoming God into your heart. Some who have been abused even claim to welcome God into their heart, but do so incompletely. A history of sexual trauma taught them never to surrender completely.
The sexual cults and sacrificial rituals from Moloch to satanism, to the usual practice of child grooming that is today all the rage, these sexual cults do so much to make a child’s heart so hard for God to reach and the same for the adult’s heart that springs from that child. It is the very opposite of teaching a child about God, or about anything else that edifies, and is so very effective.
Find the Jezebel spirit, and you often find someone with a dark past he refuses to let go of.
That Culture Is Coming To An End
Our culture is a Jezebel culture, clucking at everyone to submit and obey to the unrighteous authority that Jezebel commands. And it is coming to an end. Because lions are rising up who have had enough.
Not just enough of Jezebel, but also enough of the sexualizing culture that gives rise to the Jezebel spirit and which invites that spirit to take root. It is not just about children. It is also about you.
You are more than a sexual act, more than a heterosexual or a homosexual act. You are more than an experience. You are no victim. You are more than the melanin or the accent or the political preference that the world wants you to identify yourself as and wants you to define yourself as.
You are practically none of the things the world tells you about yourself. The first page of the first chapter of the first book of the Bible calls you none of those things. It calls you one thing: made in the likeness of God.
That vitally important detail was placed right there at the front, where it is impossible for the sincere reader to miss.
Good Things Are Happening
You see a red wave in November. You see parents running for school board. You see mama bears who have had enough. You see childhood vaccine refusal at unprecedented contemporary highs. You see homeschooling surging. You see the masks coming off. You see the public health tyrants losing influence, resigning, and even fleeing.
I see all of that too. But the most important thing I see is fundamental to that all. It is lions waking up and embodying that first chapter of Genesis, realizing that man is made in the likeness of God, straightening up how he himself is behaving, and refusing to put up with the lies any longer.
And I realize not all who have woken up have read that verse, but even those who do not read that, have embodied it, for it is such a hard-to-miss part of the conflict around us. It is written into our culture.
It is hard to believe in freedom without being influenced by that chapter of the Bible. Practically all western culture is built upon the foundation of that idea. Although there is a satanist inspired flavor even to some flavors of libertarian thought, even those ideas, at their root, are built upon that first chapter of Genesis.
Start By Calling The Abnormal What It Is
It may not all be driven out overnight. But it will cease being okay to call any of this normal.
The scolding car is not normal.
The scolding kitchen appliance is not normal.
The scolding servant in public service is not normal.
The gay parades in view of children is not normal.
The number of gay men diddled by their uncles is not normal. The number of gay women with a similar history is not normal.
Ignoring the pain of abuse and calling it “normal” is not normal.
The sex trafficking is not normal.
The drag queen story hour is not normal.
The gender dysphoria classes are not normal.
A pedophile Hitler, illegitimate President is not normal. A laptop with images of his son practicing pedophilia is not normal. A rehab journal with his daughter accusing the President of the United States of pedophilia is not normal.
An LGBT flag anywhere near anyone under 18 is not normal.
A teacher telling students about his personal life is not normal.
Pronouns are not normal.
So much of this behavior is meant to sexualize, confuse, and groom those who are hollowed out by such acts of evil and made into empty vessels for Jezebel.
And make no mistake.
These acts are evil.
As An Adult, The Spirit Of Control Is Something You Choose To Make Room For
And the spirit of control is not just about sexualizing children. It is about making a man about his penis and a woman about her vulva. It is about making pornography and masturbation the norm, fleshlights and dildos the norm, hookup culture and confusion the norm.
The Jezebel spirit is so intimately tied to sexual ills because once you train a person to respond to sexual ills, it takes a mere glimpse, a mere tone of voice, to send a person distracted down that evil, enfeebling path. Is sex bad? No. Sex is amazing. Many amazing things can be used for ill. One abuses oneself when one uses even beautiful things in ways they were not intended for. Part of the work of life is coming to understand what things are intended for and acting accordingly.
So Much Of Life Represents So Much More
The face mask is about so much more than just a face mask. It is about standing up to that which has no place in your life.
And the rainbow flag is about so much more than just a rainbow flag. It is about defining someone as a sexual act.
You are a child of God my friend. You are no sexual act. I do not care what that sex act is. It is not you.
All of this is an opportunity to remember how to stand. It is an opportunity to remember what is worth standing for.
You May Be The Only Voice Of Wisdom In The Entire World Around You
How is a 37-year-old supposed to know any better unless someone like you spoke truth into his life? How is a 67-year-old to know any better? How is a 7-year-old to know any better?
Left to the ebbs and flows of contemporary culture, many are left lost. And you are the local representative of the counter-culture, if you choose to accept that role.
When you wear the face mask, you parade around a lie on your face, for everyone to see. When you bite your tongue in the presence of someone speaking about some sexual desire or aberrant gender that he defines himself as, you give your tacit approval to a lie.
Am I telling you to yell? Am I telling you to hate? Am I telling you to change the world by force? Or to brandish a gun to intimidate?
No. Those are often the reactions of a coward.
I am not even telling you to change it at the ballot box.
Then What Is A Person To Do?
I am telling you to calmly look every single person in the eye and to speak truth into his life. I am telling you to calmly ask the hard questions. I am telling you to calmly stand your ground and be direct.
That conversation takes so much more courage than the many other easy ways out. And that conversation, dozens of times every day, hundreds of times a month, thousands of times a year, is what we are called on to have.
We are not called on to ignore lies. We are not called on to walk away from lies. We are not called on to run away to another state from lies. We are called on to resist lies. We are called on to stand.
There are so many other things people want you to do: ignore, get angry, revolt.
The true revolution is in how you choose to interact with another human being who crosses your path.
With truth, love, and a little divine guidance, there is not a lot that can stop you.
But your success and the success of the world around you as you know it, depends on your willingness to have the hard conversations and your ability to make that happen.
You hold in you the power to banish Jezebel from the world around you. You hold in you the power to banish that spirit of control from the world around you.
All you need to do is stand.

Great article. A very good couple of first steps is to not watch TV and leave your cell phone in a different room (or at least the far corner).
I noticed that you mentioned kitchen appliances. I recently bought a Moen Motionsense faucet and they gave me a survey where they asked "What other Smart appliances do you have in your home?" along with a super long list! (I had no idea!) Turns out that outside of the faucet, I have zero smart appliances. And the faucet only turns on/off by waving your meat/grease/dirt soaked hands... so it ain't all that "smart" TBH. I'm pretty sure we can all get by with appliances being dumb, like mine, like they used to be.
For god's sake if you eat, sleep, drink, read, watch, wear, and otherwise surround yourselves with the "smart" (aka intrusive monitoring) devices, how can you possibly be surprised to find out they are what they are?
The novelty has worn off long ago. Right about the time we all came to the knowledge of the spying. Would you let *me* (personally, a guy you never met and don't know) put a camera/mic into your house?! Then why do you let other people that you don't know do so?!?! WTF?
Recently moved to Oklahoma from Boston and went looking for a truck. I *specifically* looked for a truck that wouldn't beep at me for not wearing a seat belt. I found one that didn't but after a few weeks it would **turn off the radio** if I didn't put my seat belt on (essentially blackmailing me). I took it to a mechanic and he turned that off. Now I bound around the two-land backroads in my 2010 F-150 and, NGL, it's *glorious*.
