What We Do RTM was founded in 2008 for the following purposes:

| Who We Are Restoring Truth Ministries, LLC (RTM) is a Christian ministry explaining the assault on truth behind the war of worldviews, which Christendom is now losing. RTM is engaged in the development and execution of strategies at the local and national level to turn the tide in this spiritual war. Wynne and Stephen Wynne: Deception Behind the War of Worldviews and How Christendom can Turn the Tide war? simply his or her ultimate view of reality. A worldview provides answers to basic questions such as: "Where did I come from?" "Why am I here?" "Am I morally accountable?" and "What happens when I die?" All such questions can be reduced to "Who is God?" and "Who is man?" are humanism, the New Age, liberal theology, and postmodernism. Adherents to these four alternatives object to the notion of moral absolutes, which explains why they are increasingly antagonistic towards Christians and work to eliminate Christian influence. of humanism has its modern roots in the re- emergence of the ancient philosophy of materialism during the Renaissance, plus the rationalism and heretical theology that emerged during and after the Enlightenment. The intellectual foundation was completed with the emergence of Darwinism in 1859. merger in thought between Hinduism, Gnosticism, Theosophy, and the evolutionary theology of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. philosophy of the Enlightenment, eventually morphing into the Modernist heresy following the appearance of the writings of Hegel and then Darwin in the 1800s, both of which gave momentum to negative higher criticism and evolutionary models such as the Documentary Hypothesis. Postmodernism marks the practical end of philosophy, as it holds that there is no ultimate truth or reality, and that all truth claims are but the product of a particular society and are often attempts to gain power over others. To varying degrees, all four worldview alternatives rely on Darwinism and flawed philosophical arguments for their intellectual justification. and why is Christendom losing? truth in all domains of learning (a systematic deception). While the Scholasticism of the Middle Ages correctly established that authentic truth in philosophy, science, history, and theology point to the truth of Christianity (hence the statement "truth cannot contradict truth"), falsehood in these four domains is taught as truth in high school and college classrooms, and has mistakenly convinced millions of trusting students that the Christian worldview is not consistent with the evidence and sound reasoning. The most influential departure from truth has been Darwinian science, as the view of man as an evolved animal permeates every aspect of education. While many sincere Christians hold that evolution is not opposed to the faith (as true science cannot contradict truth about God and His creation), this position ignores two important considerations that are independent of one's interpretation of Scripture (meaning, ultimately, that all Christians should oppose Darwinism regardless of one's interpretation of Genesis): 1) Darwinian science is not supported by the scientific evidence (those who believe it is rely upon inaccurate information they were taught in high school or college and have not undergone a serious study of the scientific literature themselves), and 2) the teaching of Darwinism in schools inappropriately ventures into the philosophical realm. That is, students are commonly taught that evolution is a purposeless process and that Darwinism has exposed belief in a Creator as a superstition and myth. While truth cannot contradict truth, falsehood in any domain can appear to conflict with truths of the faith, and false Darwinian science, presented as truth to prop up false philosophy, has led millions into a lapse of faith and the embracing of false worldviews. Similar error in the domains of philosophy, theology, and history has set up students for conversion into false worldviews that, in truth, are not supported by sound methods or the evidence. historical departure from truth in the four domains and explain that the departure was an intentional effort to give credence to non-Christian worldviews that would lose their intellectual basis if truth were taught. Specific areas studied in depth include Darwinism and its influence on other domains including jurisprudence, rationalism in philosophy, and flawed historical methods that have been applied to historical studies and to theology. most Americans now believe that non-Christian worldviews are supported by the evidence and sound reasoning from all domains, while Christianity is a blind faith held by the intellectually inferior. One has only to consider readily available social statistics and the antagonism toward Christians to understand how near the other side is to victory. If such errors are not reversed, the nation will continue to disintegrate morally and economically, and freedom will eventually be lost. What are the strategic battlefields in the War of Worldviews? The three key battlefields are education (including seminaries), the government (especially the judiciary), and the media. The most important of these is education. dominated by theorists such as John Dewey, commonly considered to be the "Father of American Education" and a key figure in the emergence of the philosophy of modern humanism. Dewey viewed children as mere animals to be manipulated and trained to meet the needs of an evolving society, and his methods set the stage for the failure in American education plus the indoctrination of innocent children into the humanistic worldview. Dewey's views continue to dominate public schools as humanist educational theorists never relinquished control and are able to execute their strategies today through the like-minded NEA leadership (though many teachers are well meaning and unaware of the agenda). The aim, now largely achieved, continues to be the use of the classroom to lead children to the rejection of their Christian heritage and to the pursuit of a hedonistic lifestyle through harmless sounding programs such as "values clarification" "outcome based education," and "safe sex" instruction. spiritual, emotional, and physical consequences on those students who fall victim to the lies being taught. The moral collapse in America is directly related to this usurpation of parental rights in education and the misinformation taught in our schools. glorification of hedonism (pleasure-seeking) in television and the media, plus decisions from judicial activists who are hostile to Christianity, it is not surprising that Christianity is losing the war even though it is the only worldview consistent with truth and that provides satisfactory answers to the great questions of life. restore truth to the four domains and to engage those who oppose truth on the key battlefields. Only then will truth seekers understand that Christianity is the only worldview consistent with the evidence and that moral absolutes do exist. Only then can citizens be convinced that man should govern his affairs according to Christian principles (as was believed by the Founding Fathers, who based their views on principles firmly established by the Scholastics of the Middle Ages and as later reflected in Blackstone's work). Repairing the Breach sets forth a bold and detailed strategy to turn the tide and to restore truth. The Truth Tear Sheets, Truth Partner Page, and other resources offered through this web site and now being developed form part of the strategy. The book's authors believe that the concepts set forth in Repairing the Breach could turn the tide, but success will ultimately depend on whether the Christian remnant has the resolve to engage in the fight, and whether existing ministries will unite in a common cause and execute the coordinated strategies needed to restore truth. Why should I care? For Christians, not only are souls at risk in this struggle, but there are enormous practical stakes as well. The only way to win the debate over moral issues such as abortion and the exclusivity of marriage, for example, is to challenge the belief of most citizens that there are no moral absolutes. This can only be done, not by telling those who doubt the existence of God and moral absolutes that certain behaviors are morally wrong, but by demonstrating that their relativistic worldview lacks supporting evidence; that they have been deceived into believing a false worldview. one who longs to hold a worldview in harmony with truth and the evidence from all domains, then the resources available through RTM, especially Repairing the Breach, can help lead you to truth. Readers will see that the real evidence from the four domains overwhelmingly points to the truth of Christianity. Once the way to truth is known, the matter for the truth-seeker will become one of the will, not the intellect, and the seeker will need to decide whether or not to kneel before the Cross of Jesus Christ in obedience, even though it may require a changed lifestyle that reflects your moral accountability to the Creator. In short, Repairing the Breach can be a life-changing event if you have the courage to follow truth. We encourage you to begin the quest. |
