1. Today’s Update

There is a song by the band Foo Fighters, that asks some very powerful and important questions related to the world we live in…

“I’ve got another confession to make. I’m your fool.

Everyone’s got their chains to break. Holdin’ you

Were you born to resist?

Or be abused?

Is someone getting the best… the best of you?”

So the question is… Are they?

What is the “best”? It is not how Scamtopia defines it; filling your life with material wealth, a fancy title after your name, or all the money you can get at others’ expense.

The real best. The best as God intended us to be: spirit-centred, highly loving, highly conscientious, acutely self-aware, able to build and grow incredibly meaningful levels of value in all areas; Theochristological, human, material… and then financial!

How many of us right now are really building the lives we once dreamed of – that is, if we even had dreams before the schooling system got hold of our creative imaginations?

In today’s “Escamlishment Problem”, you will read about a level of deception by a major bank that requires such orchestration, such manipulative intention, that to call it a scam is frankly a compliment.

But more than how banks have deceived us when it comes to monetary value, there is in fact a deeper scam that most people never see. It is, as we highlighted yesterday, imperceptible.

You see, most of us are indoctrinated to believe that financial value is the highest form of value there is. We are taught to believe it is the source of and gateway to true happiness, freedom, peace and security. Even those who claim to not be materialists. When there’s a financial pinch, when taxes rise, when oil prices flare up, most people would be lying if they said they didn’t feel some fear. Material and financial resources have their place as secondary resources that we can use, but NOT at the expense of the primary – the Human and ultimately, Theochristological.

Part of the education scam that works in tandem with this value scam, is that we are deliberately miseducated to believe that as human beings, we are not as valuable as the things we own. We are falsely led to believe that money and material goods are more valuable than us. So we chase status, possessions, titles, properties, cars, and perhaps the closest we come to our human value is our body’s physique, mostly because we just want to look good to others.

Our true freedom does not lie in how much money we have. Money is important for sure, but only as a conduit, as a representation of value. It is not the highest form of value there is. Our human faculties, our human birth gifts, given to us by God (Genesis 1:27) are literally what shapes our lives. Our ability to be self-aware and conscientious. Our ability to make wise, proactive, valuable choices. Our use of our imagination to create value beyond our circumstances and to solve problems ahead of us.

Instead, they want us chasing money like fools.

Buying endless possessions to bury ourselves in stuff.

Blind to our potential.

Why? Because if a mass population is numb, dumb and compliant, then the Establishment can easily control them and horde all the material and financial wealth and opportunities for themselves.

This again, is one of the core reasons why Lighthouse Global is such a threat to the Establishment. Not because we want or seek to be a threat. But because we have made it our mission to forge and develop the incredible human potential that God has given us. And we can only do so thanks to His protection, His mercy and His grace. All glory to God through Jesus Christ.

“Make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love.” – 2 Peter 1:5-8

2. Today’s Escamlishment Problem

How the Bank of England and Wall Street Control the World in a Ponzi Scheme Scam— And Why Were You Never Told

In 1694, a single financial deal reshaped the financial future of the world with the creation of the Bank of England. And you are still paying the consequences for it, to this very day!

With it, came a monetary system where the state borrowed money at interest from a privately formed institution empowered to issue the nation’s currency.

Your wages, taxes, mortgage rate and pension all operate within a debt-based system few people ever examine.

This article explores how modern “fiat” money (i.e. money with no intrinsic value) evolved, as well as why critics describe it structurally like a Ponzi-scheme, and how monetary power quietly shapes political and social reality.

3. Paul S. Waugh’s Daily Prayer

A very meaningful prayer on the inevitability of building value in our Lord, by Paul S Waugh.

👉 The Inevitability of Value in Christ

4. Lighthouse Associates Collective Feedback

Throughout the day, confirmations appeared; like hearing Psalm 95 preached — a call to worship, a reminder that God wants our heart. There is nothing we can give Him that He needs. He loves our gratitude. That landed differently after the morning. Thanking God for hearing our prayers felt entirely different from anxiously repeating requests. It revealed how often we ask without trusting. It also showed us the need for practical organisation — tracking our prayers, taking them seriously, recognising that stewardship in prayer reflects maturity. The more seriously we take prayer, the more accountable and aligned we become.

We began applying gratitude to real tensions — especially with birth family dynamics, inherited distortions, and long-standing emotional patterns. Instead of spiralling into old narratives, we practised thanking God for the challenge itself. That shift alone helped us recognise when stupor was creeping back in. It created space to trust Him to lead us out rather than trying to self-manage our way through.

We also confronted how stupor develops internally. Yes, there are systemic influences, but we saw our own participation: unchallenged assumptions, inherited emotional immaturity, shame-based identities, self-deprecating inner dialogue, wilful spiritual starvation — a heart, mind, spirit anorexia. Nourishment is available, yet we hardly feed ourselves in these areas. Anxiety and restlessness become the default, and gratitude feels unnatural because our old identity feeds on shame, not forgiveness.

Some of us recognised how early family conditioning distorted what we call “love,” shaping how we see ourselves and, by extension, how we relate to God. Others realised how much we still identify with an old self — neurotic, powerless, irresponsible — and how that identity quietly resists genuine thankfulness. Gratitude exposes the internal “matrix” that keeps us small. That is uncomfortable, but it is clarifying.

We are also beginning to grasp that growth will cost us worldly acceptance. Ironically, many of us started this journey wanting to be more accepted, more integrated into the world. Now we see that moving toward Level 4 maturity will have the opposite effect. The more aligned we become with the Kingdom, the less comfortable we are in a culture driven by discontent, addiction, and ego. That realisation is sobering — but also freeing. It reframes rejection not as failure, but as evidence of alignment.

God bless,

Paul S. Waugh, Chris Nash, Shaun Cooper

A big question!
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” – Ephesians 6:12.
Thank you for asking the inconvenient but essential questions to help us face reality. This is just one reason why God says to not conform to this world

Reading these posts each day is like removing blindfold after blindfold after blindfold… the amount that we’ve been scammed is out of this world! Meanwhile I know that were it not for the blatant establishment attacks on us at Lighthouse, these are truths that we would likely not be writing about in the way that we are. In fact through our research around a decade ago, we were writing daily praise for establishment heroes who are now being exposed for all sorts of crime, corruption and coverups. How things have changed in coming to see the reality of Christ…

Another timely reminder that if we don’t consciously pursue truth and character, the system will happily shape us in its image.

I’ve listened to that Foo-fighters song at least 100 times and yet not heard it! Wow. That’s a reflection upon how I’ve lived life too. Not seeing what the world is like and who controls it because I’ve been spiritually, emotionally and mentally blind in relation to the reality of the world.

Thank you! These are all crucial areas to understand what it truly means to be human and what real value is. Yet growing up and going through the education system, I never learned anything with real depth or practical usefulness about these questions.

What is freedom? What is value? How does money actually work? Who am I?

The answers to these questions are essential for building a grounded and meaningful life. Yet I rarely encountered anyone who seriously explored or illuminated these areas.

It makes one wonder why such foundational questions receive so little attention. When people lack clarity about freedom, value, identity, and responsibility, it becomes much easier for the Establishment to shape and direct our lives.

It shows how the establishment tries to keep this knowledge and understanding away from citizens, so they can continue to control people.

It’s time to unite against the Establishment and to regain control of our lives in Christ.

God bless.

I feel the reality of being educated in not knowing our value and with that valuing material things before us and our true value. I feel and see the scam, to believe we’re less than. This education you’re giving me is profound. Thank you

We were indeed robbed! I can remember when I was a child how vivid and alive my imagination was and how I loved exploring and creating things. I can literally recall how that changed through school and how that was sapped out of me as I went through the system. The very things that ought to have been fed, encouraged, nurtured, empowered in us were instead starved by a cold, bureaucratic system that turned us into compliant robots, than free thinking, feeling human beings realising their potential. Thank God that He restores and renews us in Christ!

The real challenge in this piece is the question it asks of us. It’s easy to talk about the Establishment as something “out there,” but the harder thing is recognising where it might already be shaping our thinking, reactions, and loyalties. That’s uncomfortable, but it’s probably where the most honest reflection needs to happen.

Paul, you are asking the questions that we ought to have been asking. Due to the scams and indoctrination, we don’t even know the questions to ask. There is still so much that we don’t know we don’t know, but you are helping us open our eyes and revealing it to us all. Thank you as well Chris and Shaun.

The crux of the scam is to make us believe that having things is most important, when actually having character and connections is. The former weakens is all, the latter will strengthen us.

Spot on! The greatest value lies in our sacredness, our faculties and there is nothing the establishment has attacked more than this! God be with us and protect us as we wake up to Scamtopia more and more.
