Here's my opinion!
In modern times, mass media are used as propogators of a controlled narrative by some elite personas here and abroad. They bought or invested in media outlets all over the globe to have control over them and its narratives. Politically, they are in favor of groups or personalities created and polished by them, their investors. They serve as the spokesmen of some elite few putting aside their role in our society and it's all because of monetary. Most media personalities knew nothing about the deception infused in their news. It's a news that carries propaganda in it that would gradually change our way of thinking in favor to their narratives.
That's why this passage from 2 Corithians 4:3-4 KJV perfectly fits; "{3} But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: {4} In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them." Each one of us who are connected to this world are blinded! It is not to blind us directly, it's all about changing our perception. If we look into the meaning of "blinding" in Greek, it means to blunt our mental perception. Thus, all things look good at the surface, but if we accept the light of Christ to shine in our lives, we will soon realized that we are on the wrong track. Away from God's plan for us. This was the trick used by Satan since creation and he's the principality behind it. Thinking today that we are not deceive by him, is an understatement. Satan tricked Adam and Eve from the beginning, he will continue doing it 'til the very end.
Looking at 2 Timoty 3:1-4 KJV "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God." All these things are happening today! We must take heed on the propagandas that are instilled in our society today. The worldly paradigm that set as a smoke screen thus blocking the reality that we are in. Blinded by the truth, we accepted our way of life with normality. Truly, Christ will come like a thief in the night and will surprise us coz we prefer to be a part of this world rather than being with Him. And this world simply blinded you and me.
Satan's plan of deception didn't just happened overnight. It was stage to us gradually until the time is ripe... and it is now!
Mass Media were a major part of the deception. It creates a narratives then shape a way of thinking in a very unified way. It stages a news and ads parading as good and normal script only to brainwash and mesmerize us until it weakens our system... our government... like sublimal seduction. They are all over the social media nowadays. Served as fact checkers in everything that we post and publish thus examining it and must adhere to their controlled narratives. If it goes against their narratives, automatically your post will be removed and much worst, you'll be suspended. It is against the freedom of speech which they themselve propogated... it alright coz freedom is exclusive to them, you hypocrite! That's why, as a believer, you need to unplug to Satan's matrix now and renew your mind with the words of God. Away from the manipulation of this world and to connect to Christ (Yahusha) our Saviour. It means leaving everything behind for Him, even the worldly recognation. This isn't easy but it's the only way! Remember, the road to destruction is broad and wide, parading as safe route and most people prefer it for convenience.
It's never too late! There are good people among us! Slowly, they are awaken and out of Satan matrix. Although, a lot of negative things are happening in social media nowadays, God uses it too to advance His purpose... to call His people out of Satan's sublimity. A mass media losing its strength and popularity in general public is a sure sign. Soon, our country will rise and will condemn them, they, that are responsible for the deception. Matthew 12:42, "The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here." Just always put this in mind, our land is so significant and we are His people, God's people. Our country is slowly rising and the queen of the south will surely lead us in not so distant future. Then the prophecy of Christ will be fulfilled right before our eyes!
If our parents were deceive by Satan at the Garden of Eden which were more wiser than us, the probability of us being trick by him is even greater today. The deception has dug deeper in our society. Mass Media keep pushing their narratives (created by the principalities) round the clock daily... to seduce many. Painting good as evil and evil as good. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. The end is near to them that wishes this land to always lay low. Surely, Pilipinas will rise! A great failure for them, the principalities! And mass media will be reduce to rugs, still not sure if they have riches!
Just a reminder to all... Matthew 24:4, "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you." We have been deceived all along! It's now time to fight back and lead more Filipinos back to the light of Christ (Yahusha). It's between you and the scriptures only. Forget what you learned in school, forget what priests and pastors taught you! Ask for God's guidance and enlightenment and read the scripture as it is written. Surely, the light, which is from Christ will shine on you! And always put Christ (Yahusha) above all things and keep His commandments.
