Who are the REAL Fascists? Antifa Kill A French Conservative Man Protecting Women’s Safety
Our culture is tearing itself apart because the majority of people have been given over to their reprobate, wicked, evil minds — exactly as God’s Word tells us most people would in the last of the last days. Lovers of self. Haters of God, haters of authority, lovers of violence and lawlessness, and in ever-increasing utter rebellion. Not against a political system as is portrayed and believed by most. No, rebellion against God.
What is at work and growing more visible, audible, and olfactory — intensifying by the day — is the clear hatred of God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the Holy Bible, and God’s ways. They prefer to have things, everything, their own way. Thinking, believing whatever they do, desire, demand is right, and how it should be. Anything goes. Whatever they claim as true, they delude themselves into believing it is true. Serving their cunning and seductive master, Satan.
These folks show the same narcissistic arrogance Lucifer, their father, exhibited in heaven before being booted out, for his sin of thinking himself above God and not in need of God.
Or, if they do admit, speak of, say that they believe in God, it is likely a god of their creation and not the God of the Holy Bible, not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Most people in America today do whatever is right in their own eyes, and since the hearts and minds of men and women are inherently wicked, in rebellion against God, and always will be until the LORD Jesus Christ returns a Second and Final time this tearing down, tearing apart, with nothing but destruction and violence in their dark dead hearts and minds, their dead eyes — it’s only going to get worse.
Just the way it is and the way it’s going to be.
Not according to me.
According to God and His Word, which is inerrant. Infallible. Unchangeable. Eternal. Living and active.

Our Culture Is Tearing Itself Apart Because It Rejects Authority
February 14, 2026
Reprinted from Harbinger’s Daily
What strange days these are in American political and cultural life. Few American groups vie for the top spot in our crazy, overheated age more than the “anti-fascist” group Antifa.
Though Antifa avoids formal organization and top-down leadership, it nonetheless organizes and articulates passionately held philosophical views. According to one affiliate: “We are in direct conflict with racism, homophobia, sexism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, transphobia . . . [We] are anti-authoritarians and anti-nationalist.” According to a group website, one of the goals of Antifa’s violence is to shut down its opponents’ “attempts to speak in public, hold political demonstrations, or recruit openly.”
For those keeping score at home: to stop violence, it’s okay to commit violence. To prevent discrimination, it’s right to discriminate with force. To oppose authoritarianism, it’s necessary to enact a version of it. This logic is no logic at all.
It’s a schoolboy revolution, a lunchroom fight in a ski-mask that’s oh-so chic. Do Christians, who reputedly follow an outdated authority, have any chance to be heard?
How Did We Get Here?
The rise of Antifa reminds us about the crisis in modern American public life: we have no shared authority. The seeds of the Enlightenment, long spreading its tendrils throughout our society and culture, have born bitter fruit before. The anti-authority, pro-“reason” program of European thinkers of the 1700s, such as Voltaire and Rousseau, sparked the bloody French Revolution (1789) and Reign of Terror (1793–1794), leading to the death of thousands of religious leaders and innocent citizens.
The Enlightenment achieved some real gains for humanity. Its general doctrine, however, struck hard against traditional norms and a shared vision of authority, leading to power vacuums throughout Europe that totalitarian regimes eventually filled. In a bid to bring order from the chaos, Napoleon crowned himself Emperor of a secular France and plunged the continent into endless war. A century later, Germany, once the seedbed of the Protestant Reformation, became home to history’s deadliest fascist government. Italy, the heart of global Catholicism, transformed into a totalitarian police state. Anti-religious Communism seized Russia in the early twentieth century and heedlessly killed tens of millions of ordinary people to enact its programs of social justice, while similar waves of slaughter broke out in Communist China under Chairman Mao.
Many factors contributed to these awful outcomes, to be sure. But we cannot miss that secularism spread over the world at the same time totalitarian governments came to power. The twentieth century was supposed to be the age of peace, when the “superstitions” of religious belief were finally eclipsed by reason, and humanity finally agreed to a common vision of human goodness, authoritative reason, and ennobling scientific progress. Not so: the twentieth century proved to be the bloodiest in human history.
Replacing God with man did not lead to a harvest of universal happiness. As Whittaker Chambers, a former Communist, wrote in his autobiography Witness, “The crisis of the Western world exists to the degree in which it is indifferent to God.” Today, in the age of familial breakdown and political unrest, many people have little sense of what to make of authority. For the younger generation, “resistance” and “protest” are code words for coolness and authenticity. Yet most Millennials have no defined sense of what they are rebelling against; instead, they merely follow the cultural script, affecting a posture of airbrushed skepticism, artsy apartness. Cultural influences like ESPN, young women’s magazines, “elite” universities and colleges, and social-media campaigns all play a role in tricking conformist mobs into thinking they belong to a free-thinking movement.
A Biblical Response
In a culture like this, what are Christians to do, exactly? I suggest two main responses.
First, we should show that authority is good, and everyone trusts someone. Being “anti-authority” is really just mouthing an empty slogan, philosophical marketing. In truth, everyone trusts someone—or something. We all have a natural need to know what “true truth” is, as Francis Schaeffer termed it, and thus to know how to live. We are beings made by God, so we all have an innate thirst for ultimate reality, for relationship, for leadership (see Genesis 1:26–27, 2:7–24).
Because of the Fall, we do not follow God, the true authority (see Genesis 3:1–19; Romans 3:10–18). But we did not lose our yearning for trustworthy authority that will show us the right way to live. Perhaps we look to ourselves as the voice of reason. Perhaps we follow a celebrity, a big-hearted activist, or a philosopher. Or is it a sports team, a master chef, a radio personality, a religious figure, a sibling, a politician, a comic-book designer, a movie director, a scientist? Options abound and loyalties vary. But everyone follows someone. Even the nihilists look to Nietzsche to firm up their views and justify their decisions. The question before us is not whether we trust authority, but rather who or what we follow. To pretend otherwise leads to chaos in the name of freedom.
Second, we should preach and share that the Bible is our authority. Christians are fundamentally a submissive people (James 4:7). We place ourselves under the rule of God, and thus the rule of his holy Word. We receive, and in no way edit, the Bible. The Bible is not an open-source document. Composed by human authors through the Spirit’s agency, the Word is the very speech and breath of God (2 Timothy 3:16). This is the perspective—the true perspective—we offer to the outside world without apology.
Christians know that the order of biblical teaching matters greatly. We do not pick and choose which doctrines and Bible chapters we like best, and which ones we wish to revise. The Bible begins by presenting reality, and it ends by presenting reality. The doctrines of Scripture hang together or fall together. The cosmos did not emerge from a gaseous exchange; the Lord spoke it directly into existence (Genesis 1). We human beings are not cosmic accidents; we are the very image of God, made by his own hand (Genesis 1:26–27, 2:4–24). Gender is not a social invention; it owes to the Lord’s design (Matthew 19:3–6). Mankind is not basically good; our nature is corrupt as the result of an actual historical Fall in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:1–19; Romans 3:10–18). We cannot make ourselves right with God; we need an alien righteousness, the spotless righteousness of Christ (Romans 4–5).
But our modern culture, which has tried to dethrone God, rejects all this. Refusing to believe the biblical witness, it now pursues a “secular” public order. In doing so, it endorses and spreads evolutionary beliefs, champions transgender and homosexual identity, and declares the “right” to abortion. The lesson is clear: devaluing God’s Word and removing it from its rightful place as our absolute authority leads to the awful downward trajectory of horrific evil and untold human suffering.
We could summarize our culture’s deepest need in this way: If the Bible—and the creation account that all Scripture builds on—is a mere myth, so is human dignity.
No Time to Fear
What a strange time this is. “Fairness” begets unfairness; “progress” often means regression; “anti-authoritarian” signals weaponized (and coordinated) rebellion. Ironies abound in such an age. What is stranger than being “anti-violence” while beating people up, as Antifa does?
As Christians, we know of a greater irony. Twenty centuries ago, a group of political and religious leaders moved against Jesus, and “protected” the people by crucifying Christ. Yet his death, an event that seemed to signal hopelessness, ensured the salvation of countless sinners like us. His death became our life; his defeat became our hope; his humiliation became our cry of freedom.
In our fractured age, let’s remember the power of the Cross. This central truth of history, understood in light of the whole teaching of God’s Word, is exactly what sinners like us—hostile and angry—need. We’re made for more than turmoil and street protests. We’re made for God. We’re shaped and fashioned for eternity.
