A most serious warning to the Church
Posted by appolus on January 29, 2026

Agitprop, short for agitation propaganda, is not a modern invention, nor a harmless media trend. It was systematized by Lenin and perfected under Mao as a tool to emotionally mobilize populations, fracture societies, and replace truth with narrative loyalty. Its method is simple and ruthless, reduce reality to moral binaries, inflame grievance, personalize victims, demonize opponents, and keep people in a constant state of agitation so they no longer think, discern, or rest. What began as a political weapon has proven to be an extraordinarily effective spiritual one, because a soul kept in outrage is a soul distracted, divided, and cut off from peace, clarity, and communion with God.
For the Christian, this is not merely a cultural concern but a spiritual one. Agitprop trains the heart to live in reaction rather than reflection, to respond more quickly to headlines than to Scripture, and to feel moral urgency without seeking divine wisdom. It slowly displaces prayer with outrage and discernment with slogans. The result is not deeper faith, but constant inner noise, and where there is no stillness, the voice of God is easily drowned out.
Its fruit is division. Agitprop fractures families, friendships, and even churches by collapsing complex realities into a false righteousness, they are evil, we are good. Once this lens is adopted, love becomes conditional and unity becomes impossible. This is not accidental. Division has always been the enemy’s strategy, because a divided people lose their peace, their clarity, and ultimately their witness. The call for believers is not withdrawal, but vigilance, guarding the heart, resisting agitation, and remaining anchored in the peace and truth of Christ.
“For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.”
1 Corinthians 14:33
“See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.”
Colossians 2:8
“You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.”
Isaiah 26:3
