A conspiracy theory grounded in scripture is sweeping through Christian circles, and this discussion from Greg Stier sets the stage. Evangelist and author Greg Stier shared this on X: Guidance for restoring from conspiracies
WHY I’M A CONSPIRACY THEORIST!
Behind every evil in this world there is a closely knit network of highly resourced influencers who manipulate the system (Hollywood, politics, media, etc.) and are conspiring to take down evangelical Christians and destroy the global church. Rethinking conspiracy through discipleship offers an alternative lens.
It’s not the Illuminati.
It’s not extreme left wingers.
It’s not the Deep State.
It’s deeper than that.
It’s Satan and his invisible army of fallen angels, nicknamed “demons.”
They never sleep. They are organized and synthesized to terrorize believers and compromise the church.
And believers in Jesus know this—they hate you with an unimaginable hatred, because we have received by grace what they failed to take by force…the kingdom of God (Revelation 1:6.)
Our struggle is not against flesh and blood (progressives, atheists, LGBTQ, etc.); it’s with the invisible enemy who is pulling their strings.
Our solution is not moral, political, or societal reformation. It’s in spiritual transformation.
But this transformation won’t take place without a confrontation. It won’t take place without a fight.
So get prayed up, put your armor on, and be battle ready to fight for lost souls and rescue them from Satan’s grasp.
The conspiracy is real. The danger is real. The Devil is real.
But through Christ, our victory is sure!
Heed the words of the Apostle Paul who challenged us to face this conspiracy head on:
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.” (Ephesians 6:12,13)
