George Orwell introduced \u201cNewspeak\u201d, a language that was designed to limit the range of thought. He also defined his concept of \u201cDoublethink\u201d, which is the ability to hold two contradictory beliefs at once and, yet accept both as reality. In 1984, the Thought Police were tasked with actually controlling what people can even think, let alone what they can say! The year 1984 has come and gone, but has George Orwell\u2019s \u201cBig Brother\u201d government finally started to arrive? Are many governments in the world today adopting many of the ideas and tactics outlined in George Orwell\u2019s book? If so, what government or governments are leading the way?

(Amos 8:11-12)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"style4\">The old Worldwide Church of God reported the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"style4\"><em>THE<\/em> MOST important work in <em>the<\/em> world cannot be done without freedom <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> press!<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">What is that work?<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">It is <em>the<\/em> work <em>of<\/em> announcing that God will restore His Government to <em>the<\/em> whole earth! But before <em>the<\/em> Government <em>of<\/em> God is restored, it must first be announced! <em>The<\/em> good news <em>of<\/em> that announcement <em>the<\/em> Gospel <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> Kingdom <em>of<\/em> God \u00e2\u20ac\u201d must be preached (Matthew 24:14) to all nations (Matthew 28:19). And <em>the<\/em> nations must choose whether they will want it or resist it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">In this day, God has made <em>the<\/em> MASS media available to accomplish His work. But reaching a mass audience with <em>the<\/em> good news <em>of<\/em> God&#8217;s soon<em>&#8211;<\/em>coming Government requires <em>the<\/em> freedom to PUBLISH. Notice Mark 13:10: &#8220;And <em>the<\/em> gospel must first be published among all nations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Further, God lays a special duty on his messenger and Church to publicly disseminate certain warnings to certain nations. Ezekiel 33:1<em>&#8211;<\/em>7 describes God&#8217;s charge upon <em>the<\/em> watchman. When <em>the<\/em> watchman sees &#8220;<em>the<\/em> sword&#8221; come upon <em>the<\/em> land \u00e2\u20ac\u201d a prophetic symbol <em>of<\/em> military devastation \u00e2\u20ac\u201d he must &#8220;blow <em>the<\/em> trumpet&#8221; or God will hold him personally responsible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">This duty requires that a message warning about some very unpleasant events be published as far and as wide as possible to <em>the<\/em> latter<em>&#8211;<\/em>day descendants <em>of<\/em> ancient nations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Similarly, when God charged <em>the<\/em> prophet Jeremiah with a message, he also had an affirmative duty from God to spread it to as wide an audience as possible. Jeremiah was given a message so important he could hardly contain himself: &#8220;But his [God&#8217;s] word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones&#8230;&#8221; (Jeremiah 20:9).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">So God&#8217;s servants really have no choice as to exercising <em>the<\/em> right to publish their message freely. Their message is not for their personal benefit but to <em>the<\/em> whole world!<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\"><strong>Governmental Reaction<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">And yet while <em>the<\/em> Bible places a duty on God&#8217;s servants, it also warns that this world even <em>now<\/em> and in <em>the<\/em> future will not always allow <em>the<\/em> freedom to publish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">In <em>the<\/em> past a government&#8217;s excuse for persecution was that God&#8217;s message IS TOO DISTURBING to be allowed to circulate freely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">In <em>the<\/em> Old Testament, Elijah, for example, was hauled before King Ahab for <em>the<\/em> ancient equivalent <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> crime <em>of<\/em> disturbing <em>the<\/em> peace: &#8220;Ahab said unto him [Elijah], Art thou he that troubleth Israel?&#8221; (I Kings 18:17).<br \/>\nElijah&#8217;s defense was that he wasn&#8217;t troubling Israel, only bringing some very distressing news from God to Ahab&#8217;s government (verse 18).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Likewise, <em>the<\/em> religious and political authorities <em>of<\/em> Amos&#8217; day tried to subject him to &#8220;prior restraint&#8221; from speaking his message at all because <em>the<\/em> message he brought from God was TO CONTROVERSIAL! &#8220;Amaziah <em>the<\/em> priest <em>of<\/em> Bethel sent to Jeroboam king <em>of<\/em> Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in <em>the<\/em> midst <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> house <em>of<\/em> Israel: <em>the<\/em> land is not able to bear all his words&#8230;. Also Amaziah said unto Amos&#8230; prophesy not again any more at Bethel&#8221; (Amos 7:10, 12<em>&#8211;<\/em>13). Amaziah tried to deny Amos a forum for God&#8217;s message in ancient Israel. Amos&#8217; message was too upsetting to <em>the<\/em> political and religious establishments!<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\"><em>The<\/em> prophet Jeremiah was even subjected to an ancient form <em>of<\/em> <em>book<\/em> burning. God commanded Jeremiah to write down &#8220;all <em>the<\/em> words that I [God] have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all <em>the<\/em> nations&#8230;&#8221; (Jeremiah 36:2).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Jeremiah put <em>the<\/em> words on a roll. Eventually, however, possession <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> roll came to one <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> king&#8217;s top aides, who read it to <em>the<\/em> king (verse 21). After reading &#8220;three or four leaves&#8221; <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> scroll, <em>the<\/em> aide, ever eager to please a <em>now<\/em> distraught king, threw <em>the<\/em> roll into <em>the<\/em> fireplace (verse 23). Afterwards, <em>the<\/em> king attempted, unsuccessfully, to seize Jeremiah for putting God&#8217;s word to writing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Earlier, Jeremiah had already endured actual imprisonment for <em>the<\/em> content <em>of<\/em> his spoken message (Jeremiah 20:2).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">In <em>the<\/em> New Testament, <em>the<\/em> authorities tried to prevent <em>the<\/em> apostles from preaching <em>the<\/em> Gospel. <em>The<\/em> apostles were forcibly brought before <em>the<\/em> council. <em>The<\/em> high priest asked them: &#8220;Did not we straightly command you that you should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine&#8230;&#8221; (Acts 5:28).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">In other words, <em>the<\/em> civil and religious authorities were seeking to regulate <em>the<\/em> content <em>of<\/em> their message!<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">In response, <em>the<\/em> apostle Peter declared <em>the<\/em> firm rule that &#8220;we ought to obey God rather than men&#8221; (verse 29). Since Peter and company had a God<em>&#8211;<\/em>ordained duty to say what they were saying, <em>the<\/em> commands <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> civil government <em>of<\/em> Jerusalem were in direct conflict with God&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">For <em>the<\/em> future, <em>the<\/em> Bible prophecy reveals that <em>the<\/em> time will come when most <em>of<\/em> this world&#8217;s nations will be led by Satan to abolish freedom <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> press and all related freedoms. Why? To prevent any publishing <em>of<\/em> God&#8217;s message from reaching any substantial number <em>of<\/em> people!<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">`Behold, <em>the<\/em> days come, saith <em>the<\/em> Lord God, that I will send a famine in <em>the<\/em> land, not a famine <em>of<\/em> bread, nor a thirst for water, but <em>of<\/em> hearing <em>the<\/em> words <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> Lord: and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from <em>the<\/em> north even to <em>the<\/em> east, they shall run to and fro to seek <em>the<\/em> word <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> Lord, and shall not find it&#8221; (Amos 8:11<em>&#8211;<\/em>12).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Elsewhere <em>the<\/em> Bible reveals how this prophesied press clampdown will take place. <em>Revelation<\/em> 13 describes a great religious<em>&#8211;<\/em>civil power that will arise in <em>the<\/em> place <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> old Roman Empire. This prophesied power will not allow free speech, a free press or <em>the<\/em> free exercise <em>of<\/em> any religion, except <em>the<\/em> official religion <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\"><strong>Why Free Press Important<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\"><em>The<\/em> Gospel is <em>the<\/em> good news <em>of<\/em> a government that will REPLACE <em>the<\/em> governments <em>of<\/em> this world. Yet replace is a mild word! <em>The<\/em> prophet Daniel flatly declares that <em>the<\/em> Government <em>of<\/em> God will &#8220;break in pieces and consume&#8221; <em>the<\/em> nations <em>of<\/em> this world that resist Him (Daniel 2:44).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\"><em>The<\/em> Gospel <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> Kingdom <em>of<\/em> God proclaims that there is a higher power than human government, another and divine government to whom men, whether they know it or not, ultimately owe allegiance. For this reason early Christians were accused <em>of<\/em> doing &#8220;contrary to <em>the<\/em> decrees <em>of<\/em> Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus&#8221; (Acts 17:7).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">No wonder <em>the<\/em> governments <em>of<\/em> this world have historically sought to suppress <em>the<\/em> publishing <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> Gospel <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> Kingdom <em>of<\/em> God for it is ultimately <em>the<\/em> news <em>of<\/em> their overthrow by Christ at His return!<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Some have tried to justify <em>the<\/em> suppression <em>of<\/em> press freedom on <em>the<\/em> grounds that <em>the<\/em> free circulation <em>of<\/em> false ideas would create havoc for human government.&#8221;Lying opinions, than which no mental plague is greater,&#8221; wrote Pope Leo XIII, &#8220;and vices which corrupt <em>the<\/em> heart and moral life, should be diligently repressed by public authority, lest they insidiously work <em>the<\/em> ruin <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> state.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\"><em>The<\/em> key error is <em>the<\/em> failure to see <em>the<\/em> difference between <em>the<\/em> government <em>of<\/em> man and <em>the<\/em> government <em>of<\/em> God. God does not reveal <em>the<\/em> whole <em>of<\/em> His spiritual truth to society at large \u00e2\u20ac\u201d only to those He calls (see Romans 8:30).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Man, cut off from God, cannot be trusted to pass judgment on whether God&#8217;s truth is, in fact, &#8220;true.&#8221; <em>The<\/em> Bible reveals that Satan has deceived &#8220;<em>the<\/em> whole world&#8221; (<em>Revelation<\/em> 12:9).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Christ said his true church would be a little flock, not a majority <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> political community (Luke 12:32). Thus, no human government can ever be really certain that it can tell a &#8220;lying opinion&#8221; from a true one. Because men&#8217;s minds are limited, men must have <em>the<\/em> truth <em>revealed<\/em> to them by God. When God doesn&#8217;t reveal it, as He doesn&#8217;t to most <em>of<\/em> society, <em>the<\/em> safest course open to humans is <em>the<\/em> greatest possible circulation <em>of<\/em> ideas. <em>The<\/em> Bible supports this idea when it declares: &#8220;Where no counsel is, <em>the<\/em> people fall: but in <em>the<\/em> MULTITUDE <em>of<\/em> counselors there is safety&#8221; (Proverbs 11:14).<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Even if false ideas circulate under freedom <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> press, at least God&#8217;s Word will also be able to go out unhindered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Free societies pay a very high price for freedom <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> press &#8212; pornography circulates freely because human courts say they can&#8217;t really tell <em>the<\/em> difference between pornography and other kinds <em>of<\/em> writing or expression. This is a very high price &#8212; but at least it does insure <em>the<\/em> free circulation <em>of<\/em> God&#8217;s truth, as well as other religious ideas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">If you grant human government <em>the<\/em> authority to censor what is printed or spoken, you allow <em>the<\/em> government to stop any message it doesn&#8217;t approve <em>of<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">Government tried to suppress Elijah, Amos and Jeremiah; it is prophesied to suppress God&#8217;s true Gospel again in <em>the<\/em> future. <em>The<\/em> power to censor bad writing easily becomes <em>the<\/em> power to suppress good writing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style4\">There is a reason why God began, and based, his end<em>&#8211;<\/em>time work in <em>the<\/em> country on earth where freedom <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> press is greatest and why God&#8217;s Church has grown <em>the<\/em> most, as a rule, in countries where press freedom is substantial. Since <em>the<\/em> spreading <em>of<\/em> God&#8217;s Word is <em>the<\/em> most important activity on earth, <em>the<\/em> preservation <em>of<\/em> freedom <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> press is one <em>of<\/em> <em>the<\/em> most awesome responsibilities God lays on human government.
