Pilgrim Solutions

pagetitle-pilgrims-tactics

Mirriam-Webster defines “solutions” as, something that is used or done to deal with and end a problem : something that solves a problem. So it stands to reason that one must know the “problem” first before a solution can be found. And we have the “problems” listed under Globalist Tactics.Although the solutions found on this site come from many sources, to evaluate them and to solve other problems, I prefer the SIX-STEP PROBLEM SOLVING MODEL by Restructuring Associates, Inc.

A six-page tutorial can be downloaded from Yale University.

The Tactics of Christian Resistance

This is a symposium of essays and papers, published in 1983. Although now over 30 years old, many of the articles remain relevant and useful for Christians aware of and committed to the ongoing struggle between Christendom and humanism.

The first article, The Christian Manifesto of 1984, by the late the Rev. Dr. Francis Nigel Lee begins:

A specter is haunting the stage of world history — the specter of consistent Christianity. All the powers of the world have entered into an unholy alliance to exorcise this specter. American pragmatists and European humanists and Red Chinese revolutionaries, Islam and Zionism, freethinkers, anti-intellectual pietists and incorrigible antinomians. It is high time that consistent Christians should openly, in the face of the whole world, publish their views, their aims, their tendencies, with a Manifesto of consistent Christians themselves. To this end, consistent Christians of various nationalities have assembled together and sketched the following Manifesto.

A book to be referred to again and again, but never “read” in the sense that one might read say, a novel.
