What Does the Plus Mean?

Theology and Politics from a Conservative, Biblical Perspective

Unless a person has been living in a cave, most are familiar with the acronym “LGBTQIA+.” The public generally thinks the “plus” symbol tagged on at the end simply means whatever else is not specifically defined by the other letters in that acronym.

I recently read an article about a sex education training that occurred in at least one Australian school where it turns out, the “plus” symbol stands for “bestiality.”[1] The training course with ninth grade students attending, was so bad that some girls chose to leave and go to the bathroom rather than put up with the perverse ramblings of “sex educators” about the whys and wherefores of people who prefer or at least include sex with animals as part of their lifestyle.

Some students spoke out. ‘There was a slide for what the ‘plus’ means [in LGBTQIA+], and they just started randomly saying words that no-one knew, like bestiality,’ explained Emelia Wundenberg, 14, one of the victims of the homosexuality- and transgenderism-promoting session. ‘It was on the board when they were showing what the ‘plus’ meant.’

If this is all true (about the actual meaning of the “plus” symbol as used in LGBTQIA), then it also appears that things have gotten to the point in society where it is difficult to distinguish between the absolute depravity of Sodom and Gomorrah then and what life is like now. What is the difference? Anyone? Here we are again.

Consider that we are now living in a world where men can come to believe they can become pregnant and have menstrual periods. We have men dressing as women and we are to respect them. If someone says anything that is remotely considered negative about these people who desperately need mental health help, then we become the “transphobic” person who needs to be “re-educated.”

Do people actually believe the world can come back from this and return to a previous, healthier version of life on this planet? The people who push the LGBTQIA+ message have completely seared consciences. Paul writes about them in Romans 1, which I’ve highlighted numerous times in the past. There appears to be a downward progression that occurs with those who continually and consistently embrace one sin after another like drugs. They go from smoking weed, to shooting heroin or smoking crack. Once their bodies begin to get used to the effects of these drugs, they move onto something stronger like fentanyl. Those people unfortunately, get to a point where all they think about is the drug and its effects. It’s what they live for and their world becomes so small because their entire reason for living is to get the drug that will make them feel good for even a few minutes.

I read recently about a husband and wife who were arrested because of the husband’s public crime, which led to his wife’s secret crime. The husband was in a store, following young children while touching himself. He was ultimately arrested for public indecency and while in custody, police looked through his phone. There, among other things, they found videos of the man’s wife having sex with their dog. Both adults were arrested and the children and the dog were removed from the home.

This is the result of two people who had gotten used to fulfilling their fantasies in a way that violated the law and their consciences continually. Eventually their consciences stopped working. Because they had become so enslaved to their sin, God ultimately gave them over to a fully depraved mind (Romans 1:28).

The type of sin just described involves a deliberate, repetitive decision until it becomes an addiction. This doesn’t happen overnight or with one decision. It happens over time of repetitive sinning that ultimately destroys the conscience. After enough time has passed, a person’s conscience stops telling them they’re committing sin (though God continues to keep track). They feel a sense of freedom because now they can continue in their favorite sin and not have to deal with guilt pangs normally caused by it.

The Old Testament is filled with examples of how sin destroyed the lives of people who embraced it. Though people like to think they can control a sin’s urge or level, the truth is that sin will control them creating people enslaved to sin (John 8:34; Romans 6:18). Since we are Christians, we are no longer slaves to sin (Romans 6:6), but slaves to Jesus and because of this we should live accordingly.

After Israel broke into two separate kingdoms, there were good and bad kings. Israel itself had no good kings and Judah only had a few. It is interesting to learn what the bad kings not only allowed but encouraged and what the good kings stood against and eliminated from their respective kingdoms.

With Solomon, we learn that he was given tremendous wisdom and insight that enabled him to make wonderful decisions, yet toward the end of his life, he wound up leaving God over his foreign wives and his penchant for horses (1 Kings 1-11). He had the same access to the wisdom God gave him at the end of his life, but he apparently chose not to use it and preferred giving himself excuses to do what he want, in spite of knowing what God wanted. We must guard against that.

As we continue reading through 1 Kings, we read about one evil king after another. Every once in a while, we learn of a good king who endeavored to live the way God wanted him to live. It isn’t until 1 Kings 15 that we learn of King Asa, who “…did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David had done. 12 He expelled the male shrine prostitutes from the land and got rid of all the idols his ancestors had made. 13 He even deposed his grandmother Maakah from her position as queen mother, because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah. Asa cut it down and burned it in the Kidron Valley.” (1 Kings 15:11-13).

Notice in verse 12, King Asa “expelled the male shrine prostitutes.” The NKJV says, “And he banished the perverted persons from the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.” The word “perverted” here means, “Heb. qedeshim, those practicing sodomy and prostitution in religious rituals.”

It always amazes me how often prostitutes – both men and women – play an important part in pagan worship. But King Asa got rid of those male prostitutes, doing what was right in the Lord’s eyes.

However, look at our society today. We have moved from a global societal culture that essentially strictly forbids pederasty (or man/boy love) and bestiality to a society that approves of same-sex marriage, man/boy love and now bestiality. How is global society any different from the days of Sodom and Gomorrah? And people actually believe the world will come back from this?

One article I read recently notes the similarities between many of today’s church goers who, like the world at large, support same-sex unions.[2] According to the actual data[3], there is little difference between the unchurched and many of the churched in their beliefs. The author relates that “These churchgoers are even more pro-porn and pro-abortion* than the average person!” and goes onto say that those who claim the mantle “Christian” and are gay and lesbian Christians “…are wildly more in favor of porn, fornication, abortion, threesomes, etc. than even secular straight people.”

Isn’t it weird that in many ways, it all comes down to depraved sex and sexuality? What God created for a husband and wife to enjoy within marriage has been so stretched into something else entirely by Satan that too many do not even bat an eye anymore. People actually expect and have gotten used to all the perversions in society. Why? Well, apparently, God wants us to be “happy” and because of that, nothing is off-limits.

Satan is doing a huge number of society. If it’s not everything noted above, it’s through globalists intent on destroying the world for their own aggrandizement. They want us dead apparently or miserably poor.

More information continues to come out about C0V and the jab. With their “vaccine,” Pfizer managed to compromise people’s DNA. It seems if the jabs are not seriously harming people or killing them, their DNA is changed forever. It’s not just DNA changes either, but the fact that people who took the jab may also be connected to the Internet with an actual IP address. Gosh, I remember when that was just a “conspiracy theory.” Now apparently, it’s true.

Also apparently, according to Vigilant News, the metaverse (including both Augmented and Virtual Reality), will be used not only to continually spy on users, but will ensure vaccine uptake and enforcement.[4] It’s being built now because the Internet will become even more useful to globalists as it becomes the fly trap that snares people across the globe. Most will not know how to live without it. Everything they seek to do will have to do with their involvement in the metaverse. Ultimately, this means the ability to control everyone and for those who “just say no” to the metaverse, their lives will be impacted as well because not having a digital ID means not having the freedom to move around the world and shop where you want, etc.

The interesting thing here is the coming usage of augmented reality (as opposed to virtual reality). Augmented reality means that as a person goes into the metaverse, other users (including government agencies), will be able to see where the user is in his/her surroundings, as well as the biometrics of the user too. All of this means hyper-surveillance constantly.

Metaverse promotion is part of using online entertainment — such as video games and multi-media combined with mind control — entertainment and subliminal programming — to distract and manipulate the portion of the population that can be captured to escape the real world, part and parcel of lowering cognition and IQs…

So why would people deliberately go into the metaverse?

Thanks to the reduced satisfactions of the ‘real world’ because of the Great Reset, the metaverse may become preferable to non-virtual reality…And given its governance by the same elites that govern the physical world, the limitations and threats imposed by authorities in the physical world will be doubled in the metaverse.

Ah, the authentic world under the Great Reset/Great Upheaval will have lost its shine for those who are not part of the globalist cliche, who will have everything. The rest of us will have only what they allow us to have. Life will likely become unbearable just as it was for so many average Communists under various Communist regimes. Many of those people simply ended their own lives rather than continue to deal with the deliberately imposed stark limitations of Communism. It is interesting to note though that Communist leaders always had the best of everything, while the average person under them had little to nothing.

Frankly, I do not understand how some folks continue to hold out hope for this world that a “revival” will occur and set things right. I don’t see that in the Bible at all. As we approach the end of this age when Jesus physically returns to set up His Kingdom, it is very clear to me that the Bible highlights the fact that this world and life itself will become exceedingly trying, filled with angst. The pictures provided from Daniel, Ezekiel, Joe, Obadiah, Revelation and even our Lord’s own words in the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21), inform us that things will progressively worsen until the time of the end.

This doesn’t mean we should stop praying and it doesn’t mean we should stop believing that God will continue to save people to Himself. However, we should stop expecting things to change so that this world becomes better. That does happen but not until Jesus returns and He will personally direct that endeavor then.

In the meantime, live lives that are selfless, reflecting the nature of Jesus. Be as gentle as doves and wise as serpents. Enjoy what the Lord provides and seek Him daily. In this way you will be saying “no” to the globalists and Satan himself.
