But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand. - Ezekiel 33:6

Words Matter - The Twisting Of Human Language By Satan’s Useful Idiots
Satan’s greatest trick has been to convince people that he doesn’t exist.
And these days, things are to the point that he feels like he’s done such a good job, that he can drop the mask because he’s fooled the masses.
The changing of definitions and meanings of words has been a work in progress for over a century in the United States, and even longer in other parts of the world.
Here’s a basic breakdown for you to keep handy:
If you’re not familiar with Black’s Law Dictionary, you should become familiar with it as soon as possible… it happens to be the most frequently used legal dictionary in the United States.
Because not only does Satan know scripture better than you do, his minions and useful idiots are well versed in working to keep people ignorant from the meaning of words.
Remember: when God created, he SPOKE.
When we pray, we SPEAK.
Words Matter.
Let’s take a look at a familiar term in Black’s Law Dictionary, so you can see just how bad this is:
Were you aware that a mandate is not a law?
It becomes binding ONLY WHEN YOU AGREE TO IT.
Let that sink in for a moment… and think about COVID.
Words Matter.
As believers, we don’t get a pass for not taking the time to understand this… or Scripture… or that false teachers are amongst us deceiving millions of people.
As we’re told in Romans 10:14:
How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
And in Ezekiel 33:2-6:
2. Son of man, speak to your people and say to them: ‘When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman,
3. and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people,
4. then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not heed the warning and the sword comes and takes their life, their blood will be on their own head. 5. Since they heard the sound of the trumpet but did not heed the warning, their blood will be on their own head. If they had heeded the warning, they would have saved themselves.
6. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person’s life will be taken because of their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood.’
And in 2 Peter 2:1:
But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.
We’ll take a look back at Joe Biden’s proclamation for a “transgender day of visibility” to remind us of just how dangerous this is in a moment.

“A Proclamation On ‘Transgender Day Of Visibility’”
On March 30, 2023, The White House released the following proclamation.
We Are The Watchmen Weekly broke down the proclamation from a biblical perspective.
“Transgender Day of Visibility celebrates the joy, strength, and absolute courage of some of the bravest people I know — people who have too often had to put their jobs, relationships, and lives on the line just to be their true selves. Today, we show millions of transgender and nonbinary Americans that we see them, they belong, and they should be treated with dignity and respect. Their courage has given countless others strength, but no one should have to be brave just to be themselves. Every American deserves that freedom.”
Commentary: Hard Stop.
Within the first paragraph, we see the first lie of Satan. The statement “just to be their true selves” runs counter to scripture on who, and what, we truly are.
As we are told in Genesis 1:26-27:
26. Furthermore God said, Let us make man in our image according to our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over the beasts, and over all the earth, and over everything that creepeth and moveth on the earth.
27. Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female.
Let’s continue with the proclamation.
“Transgender Americans shape our Nation’s soul — proudly serving in the military, curing deadly diseases, holding elected office, running thriving businesses, fighting for justice, raising families, and much more. As kids, they deserve what every child deserves: the chance to learn in safe and supportive schools, to develop meaningful friendships, and to live openly and honestly. As adults, they deserve the same rights enjoyed by every American, including equal access to health care, housing, and jobs and the chance to age with grace as senior citizens.”
Commentary: Hard Stop.
Joe Biden has made the decision to invoke the soul of the UNITED STATES, and to single out that men who think they are women, and women who think they are men, SHAPE the soul of the United States.
He’s not the first to believe this, though, and it’s why he was able to make the statement… which mocks God.
As we’re shown in Galatians 6:7:
7. Be not deceived: God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
And in Jude 1:18-19:
18. How that they told you that there should be mockers in the last time, which should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19. These are they that separate themselves from others, natural, having not the Spirit.
But, this statement wasn’t just about the soul of a country, it’s about all of our souls and how and where the word is used.
Remember, Satan knows scripture better than us… and he uses it, like he is doing with the current resident of the WHITE HOUSE.
As we are shown in 2 Corinthians 11:14-15:
14. And no marvel: for Satan himself is transformed into an Angel of light.
15. Therefore it is no great thing, though his ministers transform themselves, as though they were the ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works.
By using weak vessels, Satan preys on God’s human creation, manipulates us, and steals our souls. The consequences are eternal.
Let’s continue with the proclamation.
“Meanwhile, we are also working to ease the tremendous strain that discrimination, bullying, and harassment can put on transgender children — more than half of whom seriously considered suicide in the last year. The Department of Education is, for example, helping ensure that transgender students have equal opportunities to learn and thrive at school, and the Department of Justice is pushing back against extreme laws that seek to ban evidence-based gender-affirming health care.”
There is much more to do. I continue to call on the Congress to finally pass the Equality Act and extend long-overdue civil rights protections to all LGBTQI+ Americans to ensure they can live with safety and dignity. Together, we also have to keep challenging the hundreds of hateful State laws that have been introduced across the country, making sure every child knows that they are made in the image of God, that they are loved, and that we are standing up for them.
America is founded on the idea that all people are created equal and deserve to be treated equally throughout their lives. We have never fully lived up to that, but we have never walked away from it either. Today, as we celebrate transgender people, we also celebrate every American’s fundamental right to be themselves, bringing us closer to realizing America’s full promise.”
Commentary: Hard Stop.
This is a sly twist of the word of God, as we see in the parable of the sower and the choking thorns.
Every child is made in the image of God, as we were told in Genesis 1:26-27:
26 Furthermore God said, Let us make man in our image according to our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over the beasts, and over all the earth, and over everything that creepeth and moveth on the earth.
27 Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female.
Which, in the context Joe Biden chose to use it, proves then that there’s no need for gender affirming care, because God has already affirmed the gender of every child, in his image.
See what Satan did there?
Take Action: It’s more important than ever before that we remain vigilant in the word of God. We’re seeing a “full scatter attack” from Satan, where thing, after thing, after thing, is being thrown at us, in an effort to demoralize and confuse us.
DON’T LET HIM DO IT. This means we’re closer than ever before to God’s glory and Satan knows this is his last chance.
Those who are lost or seeking need us to be able to talk about things like this and connect the dots to our, their current reality. Share this article with them, so that they can better understand what spiritual warfare really is. Those who are confused and being exploited due to these lies need us to be salt and light.
