27. EDUCATION, SYSTEM    --page 228--

         Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy & vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the World, & not after Christ. The wisdom of this World is foolishness with God! (Col.2:8; 1Cor.3:19).

         [HomeARC note (10/98): The Charter states that quality scholastic education is a basic right of our children.]

         1. Modern education is designed by the Devil to undermine faith in God and the Bible, and encourage faith in man and his wisdom and science instead.
         2. A man who has never gone to school may steal a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad.
         3. Natural gifts without education have more often attained to glory & virtue than education without natural gifts.
         4. The end of school brings home to parents what teachers have known for nine months.
         5. Television is not only replacing radio--it's doing a pretty good job on homework too.
         6. Hooky is when a small boy lets his mind wander--& then follows it.
         7. Common sense is in spite of, not the result of, education.
         8. Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.
         9. The World's great men have not commonly been great scholars, nor its great scholars, great men.
         10. If you give some people too much knowledge without wisdom, they invent atom bombs with their knowledge, & go shooting off into space to the moon while millions are starving to death!
         11. Of making many books there is no end; & much study is a weariness of the flesh. Ecc.12:12.
         12. Modern education is such a defeat because no one understands you but the very elite.
         13. The Devil has to teach some good, or people wouldn't swallow the lies! He has to wrap up his bitter pill in a sugarcoating that will damn your soul! It tastes good, but it gives you indigestion! In fact, it's pure poison & will kill you & send you to Hell!
         14. Science is always changing names of things, as well as always changing opinions & theories & ideas!
         15. The religion of the World today is becoming the religion of science. Big organised, commercialised sports are the worship of man's body, education is the worship of the works of his mind, & Churchianity is the worship of his own spirit, and war is the ultimate that all of these lead to!
         16. The temptation of man was not sex: It was knowledge, education, pride & power!
         17. Worldly Godless education is the greatest enemy today of the Kingdom of God!
         18. You talk about fairy tales?--Even mythology is more believable than evolution!
         19. Man didn't descend from the monkeys, man is descending to a monkey & lots of monkey business.
         20. The whole principle of modern Godless education is: There are no absolutes, nothing is sure, nothing is certain.
         21. Math is a form of perfection, of inviolable perfection, and they had to destroy faith in the perfect because if there's anything perfect, then there must be a God, so they had to try to prove that math itself was imperfect.
         22. The whole of idea modern man-made education is to destroy faith in God in every field and every subject.
         23. Modern education is totally diabolical, devilish, anti-Christ, demonic & is doing nothing but destroying faith.
         24. You can do better with a little help from the Lord than you can with a lot of help from man's universities.
         25. The biggest drawback to educational television is that most children want to major in cartoons, cowboys & crime.
         26. Children who watch television night & day will go down in history--not to mention mathematics, geography & grammar.
         27. An educational system isn't worth a great deal if it teaches children how to make a living but doesn't teach them how to live.
         28. Science is sitting at the foot of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil & plucking off its fruits.
         29. Man, with all his smart-aleckyness, has never been able to create one living cell!
         30. Modern education's principal aim is to make life as complicated as possible & to make simple things complex!
         31. Modern education is the worship of man & his accomplishments.
         32. Nearly all modern textbooks are the Devil's Bibles, designed to deny the Truth of God.
         33. Modern education takes simple things & makes them complicated.
         34. Evolution is really a religion of unbelief in God.
         35. Darwin finally gave the World the excuse it was looking for to not believe in God!
         36. Man's decline plainly shows: he's forgotten more than he now knows.
         37. Universities are full of knowledge; the freshman brings a little in & the seniors take none away, & knowledge accumulates.
         38. Modern Worldly secular education is damnable because it's damning probably more young people than any other instrument of the Devil in this World! Modern public education is an enemy of Christ, an enemy of the true Church, an enemy of God, an enemy of the Bible & an enemy of your faith, a tool of the Devil to try to destroy your soul & damn you to Hell!
         39. Education is the religion of the World today, the worship of the knowledge of man.
         40. "The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed & taken, lo, they have rejected the Word of the Lord, what wisdom is in them?" (Jer.8:9) If you reject the Word of the Lord, what have you got left? Without God's Word there is nothing, no wisdom, no knowledge that amounts to anything. Without the Word of God all these great temples to education are only universities of empty blab! They're just so much tommyrot without God!
         41. If you don't have God & you don't have the Bible, there is no purpose in living, no reason for existence, no goal, no solution; life isn't worth living, so they just live to destroy!
         42. The Godless, damnable, hellish educational system is damning young people today & taking God & the Bible away from them, an excuse for existence & a purpose in life & love of God in their fellow man, & making animals out of them, brute beasts created to be destroyed, teaching them that they are animals & they might as well do as they please & live like hell & go to hell saying, "There is no God, so what difference does it make what you do? If there's no umpire to this game, no referee, no rulebook, no set of rules, you can play the game as you damn please! You can get out there & murder or kill or do it any way you want to!"--That's the ethics of Godless education!
         43. The World's enormous high schools & mammoth universities have become heartless machines, producing unguided little monsters which are going to destroy them--the Frankenstein that made them--& the churches are the same!
         44. Being forced to integrate Christian children with little demons & maniacs of the Devil, be they white or black or red, white & blue, I don't go for it!
         45. Ungodly anti-Christ education has attacked each major field that proves the evidence of a perfect God.
         46. Medical school is one of the worst schools of all--nothing is sacred!
         47. People who have no education usually worship it. People who have had it don't think too much of it.
         48. To abandon the Ruler they had to throw away all the rules: The result is total anarchy! To abandon the One Who gives the orders they had to abandon order: The result is total chaos! To get rid of God they had to get rid of the absolutes--the right & the wrong & the meaning & reason for things:--The result is total insanity!--Secular education!

         49. JOB.21:14 Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of Thy way.
         50. ECC.12:12 And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.

         52. JER.8:9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the Word of the Lord; and what wisdom is in them?
         53. ZEC.7:11,12a But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears that they should not hear. Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the Words which the Lord of hosts has sent in His Spirit by the former prophets.
         54. ROM.1:21,22 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.
         55. ROM.1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.
         56. 1CO.3:19,20 For the wisdom of this World is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
         57. 1CO.8:1b Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
         58. 2CO.11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
         59. COL.2:6-8 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him. Rooted and built up in Him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the World, and not after Christ.
         60. 2TI.4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears.
