INSIDER: Evangelicals, USAID, and a Pile of Dead Foreskins
The story of Saul and his foreskins is a strange one in Scripture. It wasn’t uncommon to require a dowry in exchange for your daughter’s hand in marriage, and the price was dictated by the father. But when King Saul Indian-gave his daughter, Merab, to David and she wound up betrothed instead to a Meholathite, David was to receive Saul’s daughter Michal as a consolation prize.
The price for Michal, and by it, becoming an extended member of the king’s household, was 100 Philistine foreskins. This seems odd, but part of Saul’s reasoning is betrayed in the account, “Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.”
Thinking it a Herculean task, Saul demanded that David slaughter 100 Philistines. In the attempt, Saul thought, David would die and considering Saul was jealous of him, this would have been a good thing.
But why the foreskins? Why not scalps? Why not heads on a platter (other than that David had already done that with Goliath)?
The answer seems to have been that Saul distrusted David. It was probably projection, but Saul thought David might have an easier time killing his own countrymen. No doubt, it would have been easier to catch 100 Israelites by surprise than to defeat an army of Philistines fighting as though their foreskins depended on it.
But when it was done, David had brought to Saul 200 foreskins. And man…that’s a lot of used foreskins.
WHO ARE THE ENEMY?
The easiest way to decipher a Jewish man from a Philistine was foreskin, although it wasn’t the most obvious. This part of the body was, after all, typically covered up. But once it had been exposed, it left no doubt. These were definitely the enemy.
Most of the work of Christian Polemics from about 2012 onward was the task of distinguishing between God’s legit servants and those who only wore evangelicalism like a skin suit, wolves wearing sheep’s clothing. One of my favorite quotations at Pulpit & Pen and later Protestia was from John Knox, “I must smoke out the devil’s foxes from their holes.”
Of course, the Scripture tells us this is necessary precisely because most of the devil’s best servants call themselves Christians. And many work for Christian institutions. The Bible couldn’t be clearer about this threat.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves (Matthew 7:15).
Indeed, these types of hooligans actually sneak into the church like Tom Cruise dropped from the ceiling by parachute chord in Mission Impossible, and literally spy out the church to ascertain its weaknesses. Once ascertained, they capitalize on those weaknesses.
And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage (Galatians 2:4).
And usually they start by leading captive weak women (2 Timothy 3:6), followed by weak and effeminate men. But eventually, these marauders will climb their way to the top of the hill and declare themselves king of it, taking for themselves high-powered roles in denominational or evangelical institutional life. And this is the M.O. (mission objective) of liberals.
J. Gresham Machen pointed this out in Liberalism vs Christianity. Machen wrote, “[Subversive liberals] seek a place in the ministry that they may teach what is directly contrary to the Confession of Faith to which they subscribe.” And according to Machen, who wrote his book in 1923, liberals can’t build institutions; they can only steal them. They take after their father, the devil, who can’t create; he can only thieve.
Over the years at Pulpit & Pen and Protestia, we pointed out a bevy of evangelical leaders who we claimed from supporting evidence that they were not evangelical at all. Masquerading as conservatives, these wolves in sheep’s clothing came into the church, and set about to make the church less conservative by their influence. They were essentially Cominterns (a term referring to the subversive infiltrators of American democracy but were secretly members of Communist International), but of the evangelical variety.
These names included Russell Moore, Ed Stetzer, Beth Moore, Thom Rainer, David Platt, Thabiti Anyabwile, Dwight McKissic, Rick Warren, and so many more who – over time – all demonstrated that they were not who they advertised themselves to be. And almost all were eventually squeezed out of the Southern Baptist Convention as their ruse was eventually revealed.
Others, like Tim Keller, were able to pass from the mortal coil while still having the masses convinced they were one of us, but not even Keller will escape a fair estimation of history. He will, like all the rest, be posthumously convicted of working for the other team.
The accusation from us was clear; many leaders in evangelicalism were political actors, pushing a political and unbiblical narrative, and they sought to move their institutions – like the ERLC, Gospel Coalition, and the Southern Baptist Convention (as a whole) to the left.
To demonstrate this, we revealed the Dark Money flow from the political shadows into evangelicalism. I demonstrated, for example, that James Riady – the disgraced Clinton financier who had been convicted of 34 felonies and banned from the U.S. by the State Department for trying to influence our elections with foreign cash – had found Westminster Philadelphia, The Gospel Coalition, and Ligon Duncan as eager recipients of his far-left patronage. We wrote extensively on George Soros funding Russell Moore’s Evangelical Immigration Table, and went toe-to-toe with his lackeys in the SBC who insisted that we were breaking the 9th Commandment for what amounted to factual claims.
And what work we left undone, Megan Basham largely finished in her book, Shepherd’s for Sale. It has become undeniable that leftists have purchased a large segment of evangelical influencers to steer evangelicalism leftward. But then…God raised up Trump (a second time).
TRUMP, BEARER OF A FLASHLIGHT AND CAN OF RAID
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has long been an instrument for American foreign policy, extending aid supposedly to promote economic development, health, democracy, and humanitarian aid across the globe. However, recent revelations have spotlighted a more controversial aspect of its operations: the use of religious charities to push agendas associated with leftist ideologies.
USAID has a history of working with faith-based organizations, recognizing their pivotal role in community development, especially in regions where religious institutions are deeply integrated into daily life. Organizations like Catholic Relief Services and World Vision have been among the beneficiaries, receiving significant financial support. However, the nature of this partnership has come under scrutiny for potentially serving as a conduit for political ideology rather than purely humanitarian aid.
USAID’s funding has often dovetailed with initiatives of organizations like George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, known for promoting progressive causes. According to reports, under previous administrations, USAID funding was used to support programs that align with “woke ideology,” including efforts in equity, inclusion, and climate change initiatives.
But news reports in recent days shows that USAID was used to impose conditions on Christian churches in Central and South America, as well as in Africa, in exchange for support. This included promoting certain social issues that align with leftist ideologies, like gender equality and LGBTQ rights.
USAID’s Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships claimed to strengthen work with faith-based organizations, but in fact, this was a strategy to influence or leverage religious communities for broader social change that aligns with progressive politics. And it turns out, there were no shortage of evangelical and Christian organizations that were happy to take the cash in exchange for betraying their Savior (reports that USAID paid in 20-piece units of silver are unverified).
The intersection of USAID funding with religious entities also brings up legal questions under the First Amendment, particularly regarding the separation of church and state. Oddly enough, when seeing the evangelicals who’ve been secretly taking USAID money under the table, it appears those shouting the loudest about ‘the separation of church and state’ have been the ones working on behalf of the government as social engineering proxies.
THE LIST OF JUDAS PRIESTS
Thanks to Donald Trump’s moratorium on USAID, and the prying open of their coffers thanks to Elon Musk, it’s become apparent exactly how many Christian organizations are on the secret government dole.
The full list of turn-coat Christians who have betrayed their own religion by taking USAID money to support causes that directly conflict with the Holy Bible is still forthcoming. But some of it has already leaked out.
Catholic Charities:
Known for providing extensive services to illegal migrants, including shelter, health care, transportation, and resettlement support. They’ve received significant funding from USAID, FEMA, and other government sources.
Catholic Relief Services (CRS):
Has been the top recipient of USAID funds with $4.6 billion, involved in global humanitarian efforts which include support for illegal migrants.
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB):
Engages in various programs, including those aimed at illegal migrants, with funding requests made to Congress for migration-related initiatives.
Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service (LIRS):
Focuses on aiding illegal immigrants and refugees, receiving USAID funds for resettlement and integration programs.
Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM):
Part of the broader Episcopal Church’s efforts, EMM works on refugee resettlement and has been involved in illegal immigrant support with significant government funding.
World Vision:
While known for broader humanitarian aid, they’ve also been involved in supporting illegal immigrants.
Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA):
The humanitarian arm of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, ADRA has distributed funds for migrants illegally coming from Latin America, focusing on cash assistance, food, shelter, and hygiene.
World Relief:
An evangelical Christian organization involved in refugee resettlement and illegal immigrant support, which has received USAID funding to bolster its programs.
Church World Service (CWS):
A collaborative effort among several Christian denominations for humanitarian service, including illegal immigrant support.
Global Refuge (formerly known for its Lutheran ties):
Engaged in refugee resettlement and illegal immigrant support, often in partnership with USAID programs.
As you can see from the impartial list above (which will grow longer in coming days), these are the supposedly Christian organizations serving as government proxies to infiltrate the United States with foreign invaders. Not only do they betray Christ in assisting criminal lawlessness, but they betray their fellow countrymen. And considering that these groups lecture conservative Christians the loudest about the ‘separation of church and state,’ it’s especially egregious that they’ve been working covertly as operatives for the government Deep State.
A CASE IN POINT IN JENNY YANG
Jenny Yang is known for her role as the Vice President of Advocacy and Policy at World Relief, a humanitarian organization associated with the National Association of Evangelicals. Yang has been involved with various advocacy efforts that align with World Vision’s goals, particularly around immigration and refugee policy.
Yang has worked with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), where she was part of an active deployment roster and conducted research on refugee and asylum law in Madrid, Spain. She is co-author of the book “Welcoming the Stranger: Justice, Compassion and Truth in the Immigration Debate,” alongside Matthew Soerens, which explores immigration through a Christian perspective.
In addition, Yang has been a leading voice in the Evangelical Immigration Table, advocating for immigration reform and has spoken publicly on this issue, including in churches and media appearances, advocating for a wide embrace of illegal immigration. As I reported back in 2013, the Evangelical Immigration Table was funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.
Yang’s full-time job seems to be promoting illegal immigration, and has appeared on various platforms to discuss immigration, refugees, and Christian responses to these issues, including in publications like Christianity Today and on podcasts like the Be the Bridge Podcast.
But as Michael O’Fallon pointed out, she’s on the board at the Land Center (named after former SBC ERLC president, Richard Land).
So who exactly is helping to direct Southern Baptists and other ostensibly conservative evangelicals on the topic of immigration? It’s this Asian chick, who’s basically the Sugar Momma from USAID, passing out cash in exchange for selling out America’s sovereign borders.
These revelations will continue coming in the near future, and may come for a long time.
WE DON’T NEED TO PUT HEADS ON A PLATTER. WE NEED TO PUT FORESKINS ON A PLATE.
It would have been difficult for King Saul to look at the heads of a hundred dead Philistines and known instantly they were Philistines. They looked like Israelites. They talked like Israelites. They walked like Israelites. But by requiring their foreskins as a bounty, it was clear that the enemy had been smitten and not the good guys.
These days, it’s become very difficult to determine the evangelical leaders and groups who work for God Almighty and those who work for Uncle Sam. They are wolves, after all, wearing sheep suits. The quickest way that we have available to determine which ones have been working against us – which we now have available thanks to Trump, Musk, and God’s Providence – is to find out who’s been secretly taking government cash to commit the sin of Balaam (prophesying for the highest bidder).
Prophesying for the highest bidder, these parachurch organizations – which we already knew were a plague on the church – have now been made clearly known. We know who they’ve been working for, and it’s not Christ. We knew all along, they certainly weren’t working for us. And now, it’s time to excise them from the land of God’s Promise, and send them into exile along with the Deep State bureaucrats that took control of our government.
We must leave the Quislings no honor, and give them no respite. They must be banished from the church, and handed over to Satan. They committed Balaam’s error, and without repentance, they must be resigned to Balaam’s fate.
