Recently an organization called “EliminateEveryEvil.com” and “Triple E Radio” has been spreading religious videos and conspiracy theories to Montanans. The messages include things like, elites are committing mass genocide, citizens will soon lose their rights to own property, Covid-19 shots are poisoning us, wearing masks is unjust, evil cults are spreading witchcraft and human sacrifice. They say that perverts, deviants, trans-humans, hybrids and witches are taking over our schools and the country.
They also claim global warming is a lie, our government is forcing everyone to have a chip planted in their arm or forehead and an imminent financial crisis is about to occur.
It is obvious that these messages are designed to instill fear, hatred, distrust, division and anxiety in our minds. This group claims to be Christian, yet its tactics and methods are contrary to Biblical teaching and the words of Jesus.
Luke 12:22 tells us “Do not be anxious about your life” and it is repeated in Philippians 4:6 which tells us, “Do not be anxious about anything.” 1 Peter tells us we are to cast “all your anxieties on Him.” Yet Triple E Radio is telling us to fear Covid-19 vaccinations, to fear the government putting chips in our bodies, to fear a coming financial disaster and fear a soon coming mass genocide.
My Bible tells me in 1 John 4:18 that, “There is no fear in love.” Yet Triple E Radio is telling us to vilify, fear and hate others because they do not agree with Triple E’s brand of “hell and brimstone” religion.
1 John 4:20 tells us, “If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.” Matthew 5:44 tells us, “But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” Leviticus 19:17 says, “You shall not hate your brother in your heart, but you shall reason frankly with your neighbor, lest you incur sin because of him.”
In Matthew 5:43-45 Jesus instructs us, saying, “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.”
It is self-evident that “EliminateEveryEvil” knows about God, however they do not accept the love of God. They do not obey Biblical instruction or trust God, instead they tell us to fear our fellow man and make him our enemy and fear our government which was appointed by God (Romans 13:1-7 & 1 Peter 2: 13-17).
Real Christians are not attacking our country’s capital and violently stabbing its occupants with American or Christian flags. January 6th was no reflection of God’s love, mercy, righteousness or direction. Seven people died in connection to the attack on our capital and 138 police officers were injured. How can one say God instructed Christians to commit these horrible crimes?
The Holy Scriptures describe what Christian men and women’s character should look like. The character of a believer is a consistent manifestation of Jesus in his or her life. Their lives are distinguished by persistent virtue and they are resolved not to “defile” themselves. The Bible says the “integrity of the upright guides them,” not whacked out crazy politicians or pastors.
A Christian is one who demonstrates the “fruit of the Spirit” which includes love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, hope and mercy. The website of the EliminateEveryEvil folks does not focus on these things, instead they describe a horror story set in a material world which is full of corruption, violence, anxiety, hopelessness and darkness.
“Blessed are the peacemakers,” not the ones who spread fear, discord and division. A Christian is not a person filled with enmity, hostility, animosity and contention towards others. My Bible says, “Therefore, as we have the opportunity, let us do good to all people” and “And always be gentle towards everyone.” God is love, put your trust in Him, amen.

It’s always interesting how non Christian’s seem willing to point out how Christian’s are supposed to live. Equally interesting is biblical critics that obviously have either never studied, or understood the Bible.
Mike Miller says
It’s hypocritical that you criticize ‘non christians’ for pointing out how to live in defense of an OP that is a public lashing from a ‘christian’ view and pointing out how others are supposed to live, based on so-called ‘scripture’ made up from other men.
It’s laughable you claim ‘critics who have never studied or understood the bible’ when clearly anyone who looks at said ‘religion/bible’ objectively by using actual reference to it does indeed know and understand it, as Gomez has and does.
Said ‘christian bible’ states it’s the only true religion and all others are false/pagan and shouldn’t be practiced (several verses discuss this ‘anti-pagan practice’) but yet ‘christians’ just finished celebrating pagan activities of lights and trees, and right around the corner is another one consisting of rabbits laying chicken eggs in hidden places. Ahhh, more contradictions from ‘practicing christians’. The hypocrisy of ‘christians ‘judging and condemning’ different beliefs other than the so-called ‘christian bible’ (that states they shouldn’t) is laughable, but that doesn’t stop the so-called many ‘christians’ for a second.
Alan says
Lol. You’re not very good at this are you Mike?
Gomez says
The problem that you have is that the Bible, being an ancient book of mythology written by flawed, mortal men, has as much bad in it as it does good. For every “Love thy neighbor” there is a “But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them before me.’”. For every “Turn to the other cheek” there is a “It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near and their doom rushes upon them.”. For every “Love one another and treat each other equally” there is a “If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death”.
Basically it is a gigantic book of pick and choose. Good people will find the good bits and ignore the barbaric, homophobic and idiotic parts. Bad people will highlight the parts that justify their bigotry, ignorance and tribalism and conveniently ignore the “Love thy brother” passages. The bottom line is that it is an extremely poor guide to morality.
