The “Fifth Column”

A “fifth column” refers to a group of people within a country who secretly support its enemies, working to undermine the nation from the inside through sabotage, espionage, or spreading misinformation, often arising from ethnic, racial, or political divisions, and originating from the Spanish Civil War. These clandestine supporters aim to destabilize the government or war effort, acting as an “internal enemy” to aid an external attacker. 

Key aspects of a fifth column: 

  • Origin: Coined by Spanish Nationalist General Emilio Mola in 1936, who claimed four columns of troops marching on Madrid would be joined by a hidden “fifth column” of sympathizers inside the city.

  • Activities: Can range from propaganda, rumor-mongering, and espionage to sabotage and terrorism, often targeting key positions to facilitate an enemy’s takeover.

  • Targets: Frequently targets marginalized communities or ethnic minorities, leading to accusations of conspiracy, political repression, and human rights abuses.

Ok, so what we have in this country is an intentional sabotage by the radical leftist, socialist and most of the hierarchy of the Democratic Party.  Let’s not forget the RINO’s of the Republican part.  I call them the Ruling Class.  

Open the borders and bring in any and all, give them money and welfare benefits, put them into selected areas to have communities that will never assimilate.  Then get them into government.  Start small with local issues them branch out to a state or National base.  Look at the Somalians in Minnesota.  Without them do you think the fraud and the civil war going on there would have happened.  A resounding NO!

A ready made and built in 5th Column ready to use whatever means possibly to hinder, and destroy the American values they took for granted and stole through evil and subterfuge.  

What is happening in America is a civil cultural war.  Ideas and ideologies in war against each other.  Not peaceful.  No organic.  They are planned and orchestrated to do the most damage.  Just as in Islamic Jihad, where death is martyrdom, look how they lift up those who dies during these protests.  The media honors and lies about their character and motives to rile simple minded liberals to the point of more madness.  We are watching tribe vs. tribe mentality spoken of in Matthew 24.

The 5th column is ready and being activated.  Each compromise we make to the radicals only embolden them.  They feed off the chaos and the destruction.  In John 10:10 the Bible says “the thief comes to steal, kill and destroy,” they are only acting out what their god does.  The final move is against the church .  When a so called “journalist” leads an insurrection into a church, we see a natural progression against the main target of the spirit of anti-christ.  They hate anything that is moral and Godly.  I fear soon it will be open season on the Christian community.  

What can we do?  Our most effective weapon is our prayer life.  We live in a world that battles all that is moral and sacred.  The Lord has given us promises that we can influence the unseen world through intercessory prayer.  Our battle is not with flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers in the heavenly realm.  A realm unseen, but very much alive and seeking to control our world.  If that realm were not essential to defeat the enemy, then our Lord would not have had Paul write about it.  

  • Ephesians 6:10-18
  • Matthew 18:18-20

We as the church are to (Eph. 3:10 “to make known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.). These heavenly places unseen, but very much real are located not in Heaven where God resides, but in the atmosphere above the earth.

Not surprised at what is going on, this culture war is a battle between good and evil, right and wrong, freedom or bondage. 

Look up, our redemption draws near!  Maranatha!!
