Topic: Brannon shares two examples of why we need to learn to think and reason if we are not to be cheated by lies. On a daily basis Brannon reads news stories that are filled with false information. Brannon knows the information is false because of years of studying history, worldviews, geo-politics, and Biblical theology. Yet, how is the new Christian or young person that has not had the benefit of years of study suppose to see through the lies? The answer in part is that it is up to folks like us to help them and teach them truth and how to discern truth and error. It has now been revealed that the Democratic National Convention was working in concert with the media to spin public opinion in favor of Hillary Clinton. Brannon reveals how for many years the media has been easily co-opted for the agenda of political movements. Brannon plays audio clips from the 1970s of a U.S. Congressional committee on the Central Intelligence Agency co-opting members of the media to push their agenda on the American people. Christians are going to have to be very careful and very discerning if they too are not going to be cheated and manipulated by the ever increasing political and spiritual lies and manipulation that is going to drastically increase in these last days.
