The Corrupting of Minds

The Corrupting of Minds

What we are seeing in the world today is an exponential increase in the assault upon our minds, an attack on individuality, the undermining of rational thinking, a purposeful corrupting of minds. So, how are minds corrupted? They are corrupted in a similar way in which a computer’s software gets corrupted: by inputting bad “code”—in other words, by unreliable, false, misleading, destructive, and erroneous ideas, information, and beliefs.

This can occur through direct misinformation—lies, being taught something erroneous and false—or it can occur through harmful, destructive, sinful experiences that instill corrupt ideas into the mind, from trauma, abuse, and exploitation.

The younger a person, the less developed their brain and, therefore, the less capable they are of differentiating fact from fiction. Children necessarily, and in a developmentally healthy way, look to others—parents, grandparents, teachers, pastors—to tell them what is what. Young children don’t know that the sky is the color blue and the grass green until someone tells them. Young children don’t know their right from left or how to read, write, or do math until someone teaches them. And children don’t understand reality, how things work and why, and need a mature, wise adult to oversee their development and choices. For instance, children don’t perceive the danger of playing in the street and need parents to set boundaries to keep them from doing so. Likewise, children don’t understand the importance of proper nutrition and, therefore, need parents to set limits on sweets and to provide healthy food for them.

Children are also not capable of recognizing that when they are mistreated, exploited, or abused, it isn’t because of some defect or fault in them. Child exploitation, neglect, and abuse are often internalized by the child with the child believing they are not good enough, smart enough, loveable enough, or because they are bad in some way. This type of falsehood is corrosive and destructive and leads the growing child to make choices based on this false, internalized belief about themselves, such as not trying in school because they believe (from how they were treated) they are stupid; being promiscuous because they believe (from previous abuse) that they are “dirty” or “soiled” or “defiled” and no one else would have them; or they feel so unlovable they will do anything for momentary expressions of affection—even if those expressions are exploitive.

This is why Jesus warned against harming little children, because harming children introduces falsehoods deep into their hearts (feelings about self and others) and minds (beliefs about self and others) before a child is capable of recognizing and rejecting those falsehoods. Such internal wounds are healable, but it takes focused and purposeful work.

 

Reprogramming

But children are also vulnerable to mind manipulation even without overt abuse, such as through education, indoctrination, propaganda, and corrupt philosophies. And that is what has happened to the Western world since the school systems began teaching godless evolution.

The principles of godly morality—truth, love, and liberty—have been replaced with lies, such as there is no God and humans are not made in the image of God; that humans have no higher purpose than what we can get for self right now; that there is no ultimate truth, so one’s feelings are their truth.

Another way to infect minds with falsehoods is to redefine words to have different meanings than what is commonly understood so that people incorporate into their thinking false ideas without fully appreciating or realizing what is happening.

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).

Woe to those who call biological men women and biological women men; woe to those who call rioting “peaceful protests” and peaceful protesting an “insurrection”; woe to those who call an experimental therapeutic that does not provide immunity or prevent infection a “vaccine” and who call natural immunity “ineffective.”

God is the Creator, the Builder of reality, and He wants His people to understand reality, not to live in fantasy. But Satan and his followers cannot tolerate truth and objective reality, so they constantly seek to replace truth, facts, and objective reality with something “re-imagined” something make-believe, with fantasy.

But think for yourself; there is no such thing as:

  • Dry water
  • Warm ice
  • Cold fire
  • Bright darkness
  • Honest thieves
  • Faithful adulterers
  • Good sin
  • Happiness in evil
  • Healthy sickness
  • Empowering weakness
  • Enlightening deception
  • Transgendered men or transgendered women

God said, “And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. … So God created human beings, making them to be like himself. He created them male and female” (Genesis 1:26, 27 GNT).

Jesus said, “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them [humans] male and female.’” (Mark 10:6 NIV 84).

In objective reality, by God’s design, there are males and females! But sadly, because of sin damaging God’s design, there are people who are confused about their gender, for a variety of reasons—some because of biological conditions, such as androgen insensitivity syndrome, chimerism, hermaphrodism, etc., and others because of trauma or psychological problems. But the fact that there exists people with real conditions that diverge from God’s design does not mean that a man can become a woman or vice versa.

We will never advance God’s cause or experience health, wellness, improved relationships, peace with God, ourselves, and others by accepting lies into our minds, by promoting falsehood, or by advancing worldly narratives, because that only further corrupts more minds.

The only healthy option is the path of truth, presented in love, while leaving others free. I encourage you to be a lover of truth, to develop hearts and minds that are eager to advance and grow in the truth as the Holy Spirit enlightens your mind to it. For if you want freedom, it is only the truth that will set you free.

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 27

Your teachings about our heavenly Father have changed my life. Thank you sooooooo very very much! I know He’s doing some serious healing in my heart and life and I look forward to each new day to learn something new about Him and to just hear you speak about Him. Thank you, forever.

Testimony 64

I’ve been reading the bible and walking with Jesus since I was around 16. I’m 42 now. I’ve mostly been alone in my walk although I went to several churches in different denominations. For the past 3 years God has been showing me His character of agape. It’s been a blessing and changed how I view God and my walk with Jesus. About a year ago I came across the power of love and the principles of design law. These teachings changed how I read scripture and have been such a beautiful blessing. I’m very excited and grateful for these truths. We share these truths of agape, design law and the reality of the principles of the two trees in the garden of Eden with people on Facebook and YouTube. People all over are learning to trust God and His agape design law which makes life possible. Thank you for everything you shared with me. May God continue to bless your ministry and lives.

Bradley M., Hinsdale, NY, USA

 

Testimony 41

I have been blessed by your ministry. I have experienced personally, and deeply resonate with, the God of love and the beautiful picture of God’s character that you present. I have seen your seminar series on YouTube, read ‘The Journal of the Watcher’ book, used your mobile app, and also listen/study the bible study lesson with you each week. I concur with many of the thoughts and perspectives that you share. I understand your conclusions on natural laws vs imposed law and the legal/penal substitution (incorrect diagnosis). This makes perfect sense to me.

Bless you for all you do.

Testimony 43

Two years ago I stumbled upon your book, “Could It Be This Simple,” and then found “The God-Shaped Brain” videos on YouTube, your bible study class, and the ‘Come And Reason’ mobile app. I shared your book with a friend and after nine months of showing love, patience, and kindness this person has been changed by the love of God, too. The same love that healed me, I now express to other women in tangible ways, such as to a Baptist woman with high anxiety and childhood trauma. She was extremely happy and relieved when I shared about the so-called “judgment of God” and burning in hell. She had no desire to serve a God that was so harsh. I have repeated the phrase dozens of times to her. “What we believe has power over us, but we have power over what we believe…”

This message that you are sharing has changed my life. I will continue to serve other women and bring this message of God’s healing love to their lives by sharing your books, YouTube videos, and The Remedy Bible app. Keep up the good work. Don’t be discouraged. God is doing a mighty work in and through this ministry!

Jill L., Midwest, USA

 

Testimony 8

Thank you for the ministry you are sharing with us, it is a real blessing to us and especially to my husband and myself! You are encouraging us to think for ourselves and not just to except everything, without thinking it through, with God’s word!

Testimony 54

I had a lot of pressure, as a pastor’s kid, to conform and be “good.” I was good at being “good.” I thought my life was going along well until it all started falling apart and I could not figure out why! In my search for “why is this happening to me, God?” I came across your book, “Could it be this Simple,” and God started revealing to me the many distortions I held about His character, His principles, and how He has designed His universe to operate. I remember thinking, “Wow, I have had this all backwards.” I was happy and angry all at the same time. Happy to have the light of truth break through the darkness, revealing a wonderful, beautiful way of understanding God and His plan for His children, and angry, because I felt deceived and cheated by the church, my family, and myself!

My heart thrills when I listen to your bible study lessons. Literally I have gone from death to life. It is a journey I look forward to every day, as God reveals areas this distortion affects. Praise GOD! I will ever be grateful to God for this ministry and your cooperation with the Spirit!

Karen S., Portal, AZ, USA

 

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 55

I was born [into the church], then I left it for many years. 10 years ago, I came back, but I could not take the hypocrisy and the lack of answers to the missing pieces. I struggled, but I did not abandon my commitment to know the truth. God is leading me to the simple understanding of his relevance and I am relearning what the church taught me as a youth… that he loves me, that he has led me to a knowledge of him such as I have never known. He is using Dr. Jennings to connect the dots that are now so apparent and hiding in plain sight!

Dean P., Arlington, TX, USA

 

Testimony 40

I was brought up in a different faith and have been petrified my whole life of God. I believed that I would burn in hell for eternity. When I was 12 I started pursuing the things of this world, but for the next 45 years the Spirit was always calling me, as I knew there was a God through nature. I could see the vast sea of stars in the universe and knew there was something bigger out there. Five years ago, through a Revelation seminar, I was blessed to learn about God’s character and government.

Then I found Come and Reason Ministries and have come under some extreme pressure when I speak about the ministry. One time a member sent me an internet article titled “Whats wrong with Tim Jennings?” I asked her what she thought of it and she said “I don’t know, I didn’t read it.”

I have always wanted to find out for myself the truth about God, so I stayed with the Design Law construct and have been liberated to understand the big picture. Once we consider Design Law, all other Bible stories and prophecies seem to fit perfectly. It is truly beautiful to see people grasping how God operates this Universe of Love and the liberation it has provided in their lives. It blows my mind to see how consistent Design law is with what our founders believed. I hear statements like “This makes so much sense.”

Tom W., Mt. Pleasant, MI, USA

 

Testimony 3

My husband is a pastor and I listen to your lesson almost every week. Thank you for helping me in my study life and to help me love the “real” God more.

C. F., NC, USA

 

Testimony 9

I really enjoy with you the view of a gracious God. Thank you for sharing the work you are allowing the Lord to do in you.

L., Queensland, Australia

 

Testimony 1

Thank you! I love listening to the Come And Reason Ministries Bible study classes and am using some of your notes to get the lessons together that I will be teaching. You always have such good quotes and Bible texts and pull things together to make good sense.

T. C., IN, USA

 

Testimony 51

I Love This Ministry!!!!!!! I see first hand how this message is desperately needed, how erroneous beliefs about God and His Character negatively affect humanity at every level. I thank God for your ministry, as I was searching on my own and was discovering some of your same beliefs and was blown away when I found your ministry. I know you hear it all the time, but it is truly life changing. May God continue to reveal His Will to you and Bless you!

Eric S., Sanford, FL, USA

 

Testimony 61

I grew up in a prominent protestant church and had what I like to call religious anxiety. I’ve always had questions about God and Salvation that no one could seem to answer.  I didn’t know how to find resolution. During 2020, at the height of my anxiety, I fell to my knees and begged God to show me truth and light and to give me the hope that I’ve been longing for. Days later, I stumbled upon your online videos and it was like a veil was lifted and EVERYTHING made sense! For the first time in my almost 39 years of life, my religious/spiritual anxiety has lessened. I feel a sense of freedom and peace I’ve NEVER had before… and it’s all because my view of God has changed. Thank you!
