The speaker introduces a session from a webinar series by Dr. Del Tackett titled "Seven Threats of Our Time."

Rise of the scoffer and depraved mind

Rise of homo deus and neo Christianity

Loss of the noble male and rise of malevolent compassion

Consolidation of massive earthly power

Rise of a demonic worldview and a national rift

America becoming addicted, soft, dependent, and lost

Attack upon the biblical family

Del Tackett aims to discuss common threads among these threats and how they manifest in current times.

Emphasizes maintaining a proper context to avoid despair, highlighting the fallen state of the world.

References the Biblical example where these men understood the times and knew what Israel should do, illustrating wisdom and discernment.

Discusses how wisdom applicable in past times might not be suitable now, urging discernment in current contexts.

Encourages conducting oneself with wisdom towards outsiders, as per Colossians 4, emphasizing grace and effective communication.

Del shares his realization of not always applying biblical wisdom in interactions with non-Christians, focusing too much on his agenda.

The threats are not meant to provoke despair but to guide in understanding and wise action in the current era.

Lists three common threads: the destruction of God’s social design, the rise of human deification, and the depravity of the mind leading to self-destruction.

Outlines God’s social order through six systems: the relationship with God, family, church, community, state, and labor, all designed to glorify God through fruitfulness.

Highlights Satan’s strategy to destroy relationships, particularly within the family, as a means to thwart God’s purpose and glory.

Discusses the natural roles of men and women where men are primarily driven by truth and righteousness, bridled by compassion, while women lead with compassion bridled by truth.

Explains that without God’s influence, men lose their purpose, becoming either buffoons or brutes, and women’s compassion becomes unbridled, leading to malevolent outcomes.

Describes how a culture of unbridled compassion leads to malevolent policies that ultimately harm society.

Refers to Argentina’s situation in 2022, where policies of malevolent compassion resulted in high inflation and poverty, with updates indicating inflation had escalated to 200% by January 2024.

Notes public protests against proposed economic reforms in Argentina, despite the severe economic conditions, illustrating a resistance to change driven by malevolent compassion.

Discusses how a demonic worldview fosters division among people, leading to societal fragmentation.

Highlights the unusual consolidation of power outside of traditional state structures, involving international corporations and technology giants.

Points out how industries adopt policies of malevolent compassion as an ethical stance, which conflicts with God’s intended order.

Discusses how naturalism, radical feminism, and the redefinition of human sexuality attack traditional family roles and structures.

Explains the cultural shift where personal sexuality is viewed as the core of identity, leading to issues like gender identity confusion even among young children.

Contrasts this modern view with the biblical perspective where human identity is not primarily defined by sexuality.

Notes that the session will be continued to discuss the remaining threats and their solutions, leaving the current part unresolved.
