A Follow-up to “The Ancient Lie Repackaged” (December 28, 2025).
As a parent, I watch my children sleep and wonder: Will they inherit the America our Founders envisioned, or will they wake up in a nation hollowed out by an invisible coup?
In December, I wrote about the ancient lie, that original deception when the serpent whispered, “You will be like God, knowing good and evil.” I explored how this primordial pride has been repackaged for every generation. What I’m discovering now is even more chilling: This ancient lie has weaponized one of America’s greatest strengths, immigration, turning it into an instrument of national subversion.
From Reformation to Revolution
The serpent’s lie echoes through history. It’s the pride that built Babel, the arrogance Luther confronted during the Reformation. Each generation faces this deception wearing contemporary clothes.
The Reformation was fundamentally a return to truth. Luther rediscovered what Scripture taught: every individual stands accountable before God, possessed of inherent dignity not granted by pope or prince, but by the Creator Himself. This theological earthquake crossed the Atlantic, finding its fullest political expression on July 4th, 1776:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights…”
This wasn’t political rhetoric. This was a theological declaration. Our Founders acknowledged “Nature’s God” because they understood something profound: If rights come from God, no government can legitimately take them away. This single truth, this explicit rejection of the ancient lie that man can be his own god, made America exceptional among nations.
And this is precisely what makes America a target.
The Invisible Coup Exposed
Peter Schweizer’s groundbreaking investigation and book, The Invisible Coup, tears back the curtain on a reality most Americans never imagined. Every single day, Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests hundreds of illegal immigrants with criminal records. Not families fleeing persecution. Not individuals seeking opportunity through legal channels. Criminals. Hundreds of them. Daily.
Here’s what should shake every American to their core: They didn’t just come here. They were sent here.
For decades, we’ve been sold a narrative. Immigration, we were told, represents the compassionate renewal of the American Dream. And for centuries, that was largely true. I know this personally. I am the American product of immigrants from Syria, Italy, England, Scotland, and Norway. My ancestors came to our shores, learned our language, embraced our founding principles, and became Americans in spirit and practice. They didn’t demand that America change to accommodate them. They changed to become part of America, weaving their unique threads into the fabric of this nation while adopting its values as their own.
But something has changed. Schweizer’s forensic journalism, backed by confidential documents and intercepted communications linking political leaders, global NGOs, and drug cartels, reveals a coordinated effort to engineer mass migration as a political weapon more powerful than any military force ever aimed at the United States.
The Spiritual War Beneath the Political Chaos
The same pride that whispered “you will be like God” in the Garden now whispers through halls of power: “You don’t need God. You don’t need absolute truth or fixed moral principles. You certainly don’t need America’s outdated values. We are enlightened. We will build a new order.”
It’s the same lie, repackaged with political sophistication.
In my December post, I wrote about how this ancient deception manifests in various cultural movements that claim we can redefine reality or determine our own truth apart from any transcendent standard. But the scope of this lie extends beyond individual identity politics. It has become a comprehensive assault on America’s founding principles, principles explicitly rooted in acknowledging our Creator.
This is spiritual warfare beneath political chaos. At its core lies a hatred, not of immigrants, not of diversity, but a hatred of America’s foundational acknowledgment of Divine authority. A hatred of Western values emerging from Judeo-Christian civilization. A hatred of ordered liberty that results when people govern themselves under God rather than under enlightened elites who crown themselves as arbiters of truth.
Chaos as a Weapon
How does one destroy a nation built on God’s authority and natural law? You create chaos.
The ancient lie operates through deception. In the Garden, the serpent didn’t openly declare war. He raised doubts: “Did God actually say…?” He questioned Divine authority, suggesting that human wisdom could supersede Divine command.
Today’s elites employ the same strategy. They flood communities with unvetted individuals. They overwhelm social services. They import crime and instability. They make assimilation impossible through sheer numbers and speed. They traffic in human lives for political and financial gain.
Then, the serpent’s signature move, they label anyone who objects as hateful, xenophobic, or un-American. You’re shamed into silence while defending the very values that created the nation everyone wants to enter.
This is the invisible coup. It’s invisible because we’ve been conditioned not to see it. We’ve been taught that questioning immigration policy makes us bad people.
It’s a masterful deception: “You will be compassionate like God if you simply ignore His established order. Don’t you want to be compassionate? Who are you to enforce boundaries?”
Let me be clear: This is not about ethnicity or nationality. This is about preserving American culture, rooted in specific values that have created more freedom and opportunity than any civilization in history.
I celebrate every person who comes legally, learns English, understands our Constitution, respects our laws, and embraces our values. That’s not xenophobia. That’s patriotism. That’s love for something precious worth preserving.
Who Benefits from the Chaos?
Schweizer’s revelations force us to ask: Who orchestrates this? Who benefits?
Not working-class Americans watching their communities transform overnight. Not legal immigrants who played by the rules. Not the illegal immigrants themselves, often exploited and trafficked by cartels.
The beneficiaries are those consumed by the ancient lie’s pride, those positioning themselves as gods, determining good and evil for the masses.
Domestic elites crave political power through demographic transformation, envisioning themselves as enlightened architects unbound by the Constitution or acknowledgment of a Creator. Foreign adversaries see an opportunity to weaken America from within. Drug cartels profit obscenely. Global NGOs expand their influence. Politicians gain dependent voters.
What unites them? The ancient lie’s core assumption: We know better than the established order. We will be like God, determining for ourselves what is right.
These modern elites operate from the same pride that built Babel, attempting to make a name for themselves, to reach heaven by their own efforts, to unify humanity under their vision rather than submit to God’s design. They position themselves as compassionate saviors while leaving chaos and suffering in their wake.
This is the ancient lie wearing a new mask, wielding immigration as its weapon.
A Call to Courage
Parents, we cannot afford silence. The America we leave our children depends on the choices we make today.
We must ask the right questions: Who is sending illegal immigrants, and why? What organizations are facilitating this? What interests are being served? What can we do to stop this invisible coup?
This isn’t about building walls to keep people out. It’s about preserving the values that make people want to come in. It’s about maintaining the rule of law that creates the stability immigrants seek. It’s about protecting the economic opportunity that has lifted countless millions from poverty. It’s about defending the ordered liberty that emerges when a society acknowledges its Creator.
The traditional American Dream didn’t happen by accident. It emerged from specific values, rooted in a specific worldview. When we abandon those values, when we reject God in public life, embrace moral relativism, allow borders to become meaningless, stop requiring assimilation, we don’t just change America. We lose America.
Standing on Truth
Yet I write not in despair, but in hope. The same hope I expressed in December when confronting the ancient lie in its other forms.
Truth is still truth, no matter how many lies surround it. God’s moral law doesn’t evaporate because elites find it inconvenient. The principles that made America exceptional don’t become obsolete because they’re under attack.
The serpent’s lie in the Garden promised enlightenment and autonomy. It delivered shame, death, and exile. Every repackaging throughout history has produced the same result. The invisible coup promises compassion and justice. It will deliver chaos, bondage, and loss of the very freedoms that made America a beacon of hope.
But the architects of this coup forget: The same God who walked in the Garden, who confounded Babel’s builders, who inspired the Reformation, who guided our Founders, remains sovereign over human affairs. His truth endures. His justice prevails.
Our responsibility is to reject the lie in all its forms. To speak truth with courage and compassion. To love our neighbors, including immigrants, by advocating for policies that actually help rather than exploit them. To welcome with joy those who come legally and desire to become Americans in spirit. To resist chaos-makers with the same determination our ancestors resisted tyranny.
We must share Schweizer’s findings. We must educate ourselves and others. We must hold officials accountable. We must demand that immigration serve America’s interests and genuine humanitarian needs, not elite political and financial interests.
And we must do this without hatred, recognizing that our battle, as Scripture reminds us, “is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world.”
The ancient lie promises autonomy and enlightenment. But it delivers only chaos and destruction of everything good that emerged from centuries of living under God’s authority.
The ancient truth, that we are created by a loving God, endowed with dignity and responsibility, called to build communities of ordered liberty under Divine authority, still offers humanity’s best hope.
America was born from that truth. If we’re to preserve her for our children, we must have the courage to stand on that truth again, refusing to be deceived by the ancient lie, no matter how sophisticated its repackaging, refusing to be silent while an invisible coup unfolds before our eyes.
In my December post, I asked readers to recognize the ancient lie when they encounter it. Today, I’m asking for more: Action. Engagement. Courage.
The invisible coup only succeeds if we refuse to see it. Peter Schweizer has made it visible. What we do next will determine whether future generations inherit the American Dream or awaken to an American nightmare.
Our children are watching. History is watching. And the God who endowed us with unalienable rights is watching too, waiting to see if this generation will prove worthy of the freedoms we’ve been given to steward.
Our Founders concluded their Declaration with these solemn words: “And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.”
They understood that preserving truth and liberty requires more than words. It demands sacrifice, commitment, and unwavering resolve. They pledged everything they had, trusting in Divine Providence.
We face a different battle, but the same choice. Will we, with that same firm reliance on divine Providence, pledge ourselves to preserve what they established? Will we stand together, regardless of the cost, to protect the inheritance we’ve been given and pass it undiminished to our children?
The ancient lie whispers that we can remain silent, that someone else will handle it, that raising our voices will cost too much. But our Founders knew better. Truth has never been convenient. Standing for what’s right has never been comfortable. And the cost of silence has always exceeded the cost of courage.
For the sake of our children and all who still dream of genuine American opportunity, may we find the strength to see the ancient lie in its newest form, the wisdom to reject it completely, and the courage to preserve the truth upon which this nation was founded. With firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, may we prove ourselves faithful stewards of the sacred inheritance entrusted to our care.
