How to Get Good People to Do Evil

How to Get Good People to Do Evil

Have you ever wondered how people who consider themselves to be good can end up doing evil?

The Jewish religious leaders, who considered themselves blessed by God and who actively sought to do what they thought was right, which was to keep the law, ended up breaking their own laws—holding an illegal trial and bringing in perjurers—and ended up crucifying Christ, all under the guise of being religiously and morally righteous.

Saul of Tarsus, zealous for God, went forth with temple guards to arrest, imprison, and punish people who chose to believe in Jesus, thinking he was upholding the “standards,” doing what was right and good in protecting the orthodoxy, but he was actually warring against God and all that is truly righteous. (Do you recognize this same method of force and coercion to punish people who convert to Christianity—used by another religious group in the Middle East today under the guise of doing God’s will?)

We see the same dysfunction in the church of the Dark Ages, filled with priests, prelates, and popes who claimed to be following the will of God even as they led the people into the Crusades, Inquisition, and the torture and execution of those who believed differently. All of this was promoted under the umbrella of doing right, doing justice, and doing the will of God.

The beast of Revelation is prophesied to arise and lead the world into the final war against God and the truly righteous people of God, but the beast will not rise under the umbrella of an evil organization, as a movement opposed to God, but as a movement seeking to do justice, to police right and wrong, to stop the abuses and injustices in society. And all but the very elect will join the beast in abusing their fellow humans while thinking they are doing right and good.

But the question is how?

Calling Evil Good

How can the devil trick people who want to do good into choosing to cooperate, participate, and practice evil upon their fellow citizens?

By getting good people to conclude that the evil they are doing is actually good:

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter (Isaiah 5:20 NIV84).

But how can the devil get people to believe evil is good? By getting people to change the standard that determines, defines, differentiates what is evil and what is good. They do this by redefining words, terms, and beliefs such that norms, customs, taboos, and laws actually teach that doing evil is good and doing good is evil—and then passing laws to make doing evil legal! This is the work of modern-day sorcery. (see our blog The Attack on Your Mind by Modern Day Sorcerers).

The Nazis got the German people to participate in genocide by first redefining norms, by propaganda that dehumanized the Jews, and then passing laws that made discrimination legal, culminating in active participation in evil by society at large.

Today, we see the world being led down the same pathway. Terms are being redefined to mean something that they historically did not mean and, in this way, sow confusion and get people to participate in something they think is good but is actually harmful.

Our first example of this is how the meaning of the words vaccine and vaccination have been changed. Historically, vaccines were inoculations that produced immunity to a disease. If you were vaccinated—and it functioned as intended—i.e., you did not experience a failed vaccine—you would develop immunity and could not get sick from that disease.

However, in order to deceive people into taking an experimental substance with no ability to provide immunity and with no evidence of long-term safety, the meaning of the words vaccine and vaccination have been changed; they now are defined as an inoculation that induces an immune response, not something that provides immunity. Note the change in definition as documented below:

1982
  • Vaccine: “any preparation intended for active immunological prophylaxis” (Steadman’s Medical Dictionary, 24th Edition, 1982 Waverly Press, Baltimore, MD, p. 1,526, my emphasis). Prophylaxis means the prevention of disease.
  • Vaccination: “1. Inoculation with the virus of cowpox (vaccine, vaccinia) as a means of producing immunity against 2. The injection of a killed culture of a specific microbe as a means of prophylaxis or cure of the disease caused by that microorganism” (ibid., my emphasis).
1998
  • Vaccine: “Agent used to give immunity against various diseases without producing symptoms” (The American Desk Encyclopedia, Oxford University Press, New York, 1998, p. 837, my emphasis).
  • Vaccination: “Injection of a vaccine in order to produce immunity against a disease” (ibid., my emphasis).
2024
  • Vaccine: Any preventive preparation used to stimulate the body’s immune response against a specific disease, using either messenger RNA or killed or weakened bacteria or viruses to prepare the body to recognize a disease and produce antibodies (Dictionary.com, 2024, my emphasis).

Stimulating an immune response is not the same as providing immunity—thus, the deception that COVID-19 jabs are vaccines. In that they do stimulate an immune response, they are, under the new definition, a vaccine. However, in that they do not provide immunity, do not prevent infection, spread, or reinfection, they are, under the historical definition, not vaccines!

Thus, having been conditioned throughout their lives to believe a vaccine will provide protection, people lined up to take these “vaccines.” And this falsehood was reinforced by pundits, political leaders, and healthcare officials who repeatedly told the public that getting the jab would provide immunity, would prevent spread, would make us safe, all the while they knew it would not. These new injections, instead of protecting from infection, instead of strengthening the immune system, have done just the opposite—the more of these injections people get, the more likely they are to get infected with COVID and have less effective immune systems.

The Destruction of Objective Reality

We see this assault on minds by the war to redefine terms in words like truth—“your truth is your truth, and my truth is my truth”—in which objective reality, facts, and evidence are replaced with subjective emotions, preferences, desires, and fantasies.

We see this redefining of words in the current U.S. presidential race in the repeated accusations from one party that their opponent is a “threat to democracy.” I have received emails from people who are fearful that this is true—but why are they asking me that? Because they are not thinking; they are allowing their minds to be influenced by propaganda and are not examining the facts and evidence for themselves. For instance, they don’t stop and ask, “What is democracy?” If they did, they would find it means: “government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system” (dictionary.com).

A democracy is when officials are elected by the people in an honest and free electoral system. If those who have emailed me would examine what has happened in this current election cycle; if they would train their minds to look at facts and evidence and not proclamations and claims; if they would learn how to value reality rather than believe what they have been told by various pundits, they would recognize that the candidate being accused of being a threat to democracy is the one who was elected by the people in a free and open primary, and the party making the accusations is the one who had powerful elites remove their candidate, whom the people elected, and replace that candidate with someone who was not elected by the people.

This blog is not making a political argument for or against any party or candidate, for all governments of the world are part of Satan’s kingdom. I am writing this to provide real-time evidence as a demonstration that in the world around us, methods are being used that undermine individual thinking, trapping people into belief systems where they don’t even recognize what they are saying is untrue. And because they believe the untruth is truth, they are likely to end up believing they are doing right by advancing something that is false. This is exactly how the beast of Revelation will get so many people who think they are doing right to follow it.

Another example of redefining words to entrap minds into confusion and lead people to advance causes that harm under the belief they are doing good is redefining “male” and “female” from objective biology to subjective internal feelings, and then passing laws to support the falsehood, which leads to people believing they are doing good by supporting “transgendered” people in “gender-affirming care,” and biological males in female sports. But all of this only causes harm to everyone. It causes harm to families, communities, and girls who are injured in sports by much stronger biological males, to girls and women who are victims of male assault (biological males who claim to be females and are given access to female bathrooms and locker rooms). It harms children who are mutilated in unnecessary surgeries. And it causes harm to the hearts and minds of people who are taught that there is no objective truth, no objective reality, and, thus, leads them to surrender their minds to voices of authority.

Moreover, it prevents the precious souls who are struggling with real problems, real gender confusion, real identity disturbance, and real mental and emotional health issues from being able to be healed, to find wellness, because it obstructs truth and advances falsehood. No healing comes from lies! Only the truth heals; only the truth sets free. And our society is so infected with deception that millions of people are being duped into believing there is no such thing as male and female, that a person’s subjective feeling about themselves is more reliable, accurate, and true than the biological realities of their being.

Rather than recognizing that a mind believing itself incongruent with its own biology is evidence of a mental health problem, an identity disturbance, some form of body dysmorphia, people are being told that biology is false, that there is no objective male and female. But if there is no objective male and female, then there is no objective anything—and that is the true goal, to remove any standard of measuring right and wrong, good and evil, to turn evil into good and deceive people into doing evil while calling it good, such as mutilating children under the guise of “gender-affirming care.”

And once it is defined as doing good, then laws can be passed to remove parental rights, to put the state in charge of children; such laws have already been passed in Minnesota. There, parents who do not support their minor children’s confusion about themselves are threatened with having their children taken from them. Oh, how evil is being called good and good is being called evil!

If one can change the laws and make evil the law, then one can get people to do evil and think it is good because it is the law and, therefore, it is just and right. If one can change the laws and also cause people to believe it is moral, it is God’s will, then the masses will cooperate with the advancement of evil.

Once people have uncoupled their minds from objective reality, from God’s truth, His design laws built into reality, and His revealed truths as recorded in Scripture, they have no protection, no basis for differentiating good from evil, true from false, and will be vulnerable to engaging in evil while thinking they are doing good.

Our only safeguard is to know the truth for ourselves, to know Jesus Christ as our personal Savior, and to have minds and hearts that love what is true, objectively, factually, and historically true—true in Scripture, true in science and nature, and true in experience, how reality actually functions—the Integrative Evidence-Based Approach!

I encourage you to be a thinker, to never surrender your mind to anyone other than Jesus Christ, to practice the methods of our Creator God, to present the truth, in love, and leave others free to decide for themselves, and to love the truth, grow in the truth, and stand firm for the truth, for the truth will set you free (John 8:32).

Testimony 62

I would like to express my thanks to the C&R team for creating a platform from which people can learn to trust in God and grow. My life is a witness to the effectiveness of this ministry. Without believing the truth about God as you have shown, I don’t know what my life would be like. I had given up on God helping me with certain sins – it was all useless. Given that the scripture is clear and God is so good, how could I have betrayed him so many times? I was a yo-yo christian; spinning up and down. My faith and enthusiasm was driven by discoveries/threats that prophecy is about to be fulfilled. But when I watched your “Healing the Mind” seminar, it was like a light finally went on. I could see God had no plan to hurt me, the danger came from sin, and that He is working to protect me and strengthen me. Thank you for allowing God to use you. The message God gave C&R saved my life!

Testimony 53

I was so blessed by a friend who gave me your book, “The God Shaped Brain,” while I was sitting in church asking God to please help me learn more about Him and help me not to be so confused and scared. That was about 2 years ago. Your books have helped me to love God even more. I’m not confused or scared anymore! I have listened to all of your bible study classes and feel like I know the wonderful people that attend every week. Thank you for all that you’re doing in spreading the true message about God and His law of love. God bless you and your whole class.

Elssy P., Modesto, CA, USA

 

Testimony 7

Ok, so last night I listened to “The Law of Liberty” and “How to Achieve Victory: Freedom, Truth and Spirtual Warfare.” These are both MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES so far! The logic is just soooooo beautiful. I had to re-listen to them a couple of times. I just want to EXPLODE! (<< we assume with joy and happiness)

N. B., Canada

 

Testimony 28

I have been following your Bible study class for about a year now. I must say I am impressed with how your ministry has grown. I took it upon myself to listen to all your lesson podcasts from the past and they have both enriched me physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I have learnt a lot from this class. I have also noticed how the class has grown in spiritual strength. One of the things that benefited me is that now I am not afraid of God. I use to be, but now it has melted away. The second thing is that you helped me to have a real life relationship with God. Now He is my friend that was always there and I love having him with me all the time. Thirdly, because of this class, it inspired me to take over and lead a class. I have called it “Let Us Reason Together,” adapting your inquisitive style and creating a class of free thinkers.

Testimony 21

I am absolutly on fire with the message at Come and Reason! I can’t get enough! I’ve read your book, blog, and articles. I’ve listened to your Bible study podcasts, your radio show, and your series – all excellent! It wasn’t until the past couple of years that I have I like I’m becoming “healthy,” with more to share with others than just beasts and commandments! I used to be a Bible worker and preached when the pastors were gone until I had had enough. I didnt realize at the time what the problem was, but i know now… the message wasn’t properly focused. Now my flame is rekindled. All of your little examples are so perfect in explaining something “complicated” and making it easily understood! Now I’m trying to shape it into a life changing evangelistic series! Thank you!

M.T., USA

 

Testimony 58

I have been watching your videos in The Power of Love seminar and I must say these have liberated me and have improved my relationship with the Lord. I am no longer terrified of him as I was before following your teachings.

Thando N., South Africa

 

Testimony 39

[This ministry is the] biggest blessing I have ever received! Your DVDs and lessons could not have come at a better time in my life. I have experienced in the past year many difficulties that, if it wasn’t for this wonderful view of God that I have discovered through this ministry, I would not have been able to respond in love and forgiveness. My heart is being transformed everyday by the Calvary-looking God you teach. Hallelujah!! I have tears in my eyes as I write, because my life has taken a complete turn from where I was heading.

I am from Central America. Most of my family is scattered in different parts of the world and all have the same view of God that I had growing up; a distant, exacting, and ready-to-punish-us-with-tragedy type of God. So, I have been translating lessons for my family and, to my surprise, they have also been sharing them with others! I can already see the difference. My brother has often said, “Thank you for sharing, I have never heard it this way!” My other family members are taking an amazing turn from a message of “repent or burn” towards a loving God, pleading to us that we won’t reject him because he loves us eternally.

Bless you for all you do.

Sofia S., Ashfield, MA, USA

 

Testimony 24

I wanted to thank you very much for presenting your understanding of God. I’ve always been troubled by this question: Why did Jesus have to die? Since my conversion I understood that The Father & Jesus are one, I did not have issues with that. But was there not any other way to save us than for Jesus to die? I guess I actually had a question about God – if He is so wise, how come He did not find another way? I did not see the real ‘beauty’  in the cross. Only when you explained the picture in the medical context, Jesus providing medicine for my selfishness, have I started to finally ‘see the light’. Thank you so much. Your seminar, “Healing the Mind,” are absolutely marvelous & have shared them with my family and many other people, including colleagues at work. Thanks, thanks, thanks. May God bless you abundantly in your ministry.

M. W., Australia

 

Testimony 42

I am just writing to say that I have been so blessed by the teachings of Come And Reason Minitries recently. I watched last week’s bible study lesson on Youtube and am thankful that the error in the printed lesson guide you use was pointed out and this week’s study was of equal benefit, if not more so. My understanding of God’s nature has been very confused of late and I am so grateful for clarity in this matter. I have never really fully understood previously how a good God can cause bad things to happen and now I realise that He doesn’t, it’s a natural consequence of sin. May the almighty Father and His Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ, continue to bless your ministry.

Laura P., United Kingdom

 

Testimony 19

I truly believe that to know who God really is the first step to understand ourselves in a balanced and kind way, so the healing can take place. Your approach really makes sense – Thank you for your ministry!

A.M., Pittsburg, PA, USA

Testimony 44

We were given a gift of the DVD set, “God and Your Brain,” and we just finished watching it. The truths in this are so powerful and truly an answer to a prayer. We’re seeing hope where once we thought God wasn’t answering our prayers to be free of certain mindsets. He answered with these DVDs and we are hungry for more. Thank you!

Daniel T., Easley, SC, USA

 

Testimony 11

I would love to have a copy of “Healing the Mind” DVDs to have in my therapy office. I enjoy having clients check out materials to enhance their therapy experience. I have sat under Dr. Jennings’ teaching at an American Association of Christian Counselors convention and respect his work greatly.

K.B., LA, USA

 

Testimony 63

I’ve been very blessed by “The God Shaped Brain” and this ministry, through video and podcast, over the last few years. It’s truly opened up my eyes more to the truth about God and the importance of that truth in the present world. The message is so inviting, freeing and enlightening and MORE people need to know about it. I believe it is the last message that can truly, not only prepare a people for salvation and translation, but vindicate the character of God.

Michael V., Yonkers, NY, USA

 

Testimony 32

The message [of Come And Reason Ministries is] for all Christians (and those who may become Christians) and not just Adventists or any other group. It is difficult to imagine why any [anyone] with intellectual and spiritual honesty could find fault with the way you explained the healing substitution concepts and the truth about God’s character, though I know some will reject and criticize. On behalf of those in our group near Tacoma, WA, thank you and your staff for all of the hard work and for sharing the Gospel in this manner. God’s message of healing love will be carried to the whole world and then Jesus will come – He promised it.

Terry U., Tacoma, WA, USA

 

Testimony 33

I was invited over a friend’s house to see the “God and Your Brain” seminar today. I became [a christian] 36 years ago at the age of 19, but have struggled with the concept of God taking His ‘pound of flesh’ out on His Son to be appeased. Wow. Your seminar has been an incredible revelation and breath of reason and fresh air! I have your book, “The God Shaped Brain,” and it is SO eye opening. Finally, after 36 years enlightenment has come! Praise the Good Lord! What can I say, but that the Real Gospel is truly “Good News!” Thank you for your efforts in giving the Gospel a clear sound!

Paul C.,  Springfield, MA, USA
