It is impossible for those who see themselves as gods to not have a human-centred view of life. For a man to see himself as a god, he must have such an inflated view of himself and a deflated view of God, a reversal of the reality of things, ‘for there is none like the God of Jeshurun.’ This man-centred view of reality is humanism; it is what is called anthropocentrism.
It is often said, and more rightly so that those who don’t know history are poised to repeat it. Often, the problems we struggle with today have been before, and we grow in wisdom by looking back at how our forefathers resolved them.

I hear that the constitution should not be changed again, because in a country as young as ours, the young need to take the lead. But says who? Others say it should be, to allow able leaders to provide their experienced leadership to the nation. But says who?
In Part 1 of these series, I introduced IYF with a brief survey of their practices and teachings. I hoped to delve deeper into their mind control propaganda as narrated by those who attended IYF’s camps.
The International Youth Fellowship (IYF), is an organization founded by Ock Soo Park in 1995, in South Korea, with the aim of taking ‘full charge of problems of the youth.’ According to their official website iyf.org, its roots go back to the July 1995’s ‘first South Korea-U.S Combined Youth Camp.’
Relativism always begins with an appearance of wisdom. ‘Has God indeed said?’ (Gen 3:1). Relativism is the craftiest demonstration of folly. It questions the absolute truth of God, thereby relativizing His absolute decrees. ‘Has God said?’ is another way of saying, subtly ‘that is God’s opinion, I have my own which differs from His, and you know what; so, should you too!’
