I hope that this article will have some kind of an effect on several people who are about to suffer apoplexy on the Jeffrey Epstein files, about their existence, the people purported to be in it, and the memo circulating in the Justice Department saying that those files do not exist. One entire segment of conservative media/podcasters has quite literally gone insane! Candace Owens insists that the Trump Administration is compromised.
Tucker Carlson expounds on Epstein’s involvement with intelligence agencies from the CIA and FBI, the Mossad, and possibly dozen others. Benny Johnson demands that investigations take place so that coverup will be exposed. Charlie Kirk, Mark Dice, all of them, repeat the same message with the ire focused on Attorney General Pam Bondi.
There are rumors that FBI Director Kash Patel, and Deputy Director Dan Bongino were mad enough to threaten resignation. (I really hope not because their talent and presence is needed now, and this is not the reason to resign. If they know something different, search, research, and expose because I guarantee that if there is something substantive it will have multiple files.)
I have nothing to add or subtract, nor do I take a position of neutrality about Jeffrey Epstein or the purported crimes he is accused of. I do not know if he committed suicide or if he was murdered. Each side claims circumstantial evidence to backup their position. Before I go on, it behooves me to explain a little about this man around whom this story surrounds.
Jeffrey Epstein was a Wall Street financier who began his career at Bear Stearn, a NY investment bank and trading company and brokerage firm that failed in 2008 due to the housing market collapse and subsequent recession that took place in the United States. He later began his own firm, cultivating an elite clientele and social circle while accumulating enormous wealth. At the time of his death by suicide at the Metropolitan Correction Center in 2019, he was worth around $600 million; this was in the aftermath of legal fees for his various criminal and civil trials. But at one point, according to many sources, he was worth billions of dollars and had his own island estate (Little James Islan-part of the U.S. Virgin Islands).
This island would become notorious as the setting where many of Jeffrey Epstein’s rich and powerful ‘friends’ would come and play. The place would later be called by such nicknames as “Island of Sin”, “Pedophile Island”, “Orgy Island” – and it was all associated with him and his political finance and influence. Prostitution, underage prostitution, is alleged to have happened on this island with its ritzy clientele.
It should be noted that Jeffrey Epstein was a registered sex offender in 2013, in Florida, for trafficking in underage prostitution. It should also be noted that his sentence was very light compared to others who were indicted for such a serious crime. He was not sent to state prison but instead was housed in a private wing of the Palm Beach County Stockade and able to come and go each day on work release, for up to 12 hours. Government officials made this all possible and looked the other way. And then destroyed the records.
Both Democrat and Republican politicians in the United States, as well as politicians, businessmen, intelligence agents and agencies, are rumored to have used Epstein’s Island, all for nefarious purposes. Most notably, former President Bill Clinton, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, and British royal Prince Andrew, to name a few.
Usually, it’s expected that when someone gets in trouble with the law, they will amend their ways to avoid being sent back to prison. Jeffrey Epstein was in the category of people where that DID NOT happen.
He was arrested in July of 2019 on Federal charges of sex trafficking of minors in Florida and New York. This time he was placed in the infamous Metropolitan Correction Center in New York City. A month later, on August 10, 2019, he was found dead. The coroner’s ruled the death as a suicide by hanging. The jail cell he was in was supposedly under constant video monitoring, except for the moment of his death.
Earlier this year, the FBI and the Department of Justice promised to reveal the video footage that would prove conclusively that Epstein had indeed died by suicide and not by foul play. However, when it was released last week, it was found that one minute of video footage was missing, and that the video may have been modified, despite the claims of it being raw by the FBI. As one person said, the government’s actions regarding Jeffrey Epstein have almost always resulted in the proverbial pouring of gasoline on the conspiracy theorists’ fires.
In many ways I can understand their sentiments. But I must confess that with the flooding in central Texas last week, I was not interested in the Epstein Files. President Trump had just completed the most consequential and successful weeks of his presidency. The events of the 12-day War between Israel and Iran and its successful prosecution and ending by the United States. The passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill in the House and Senate, the first budgetary bill in years that will preclude the need for reconciliation short term governmental funding measures in the future. All done by Independence Day. It should have been a time for great celebration. Instead, controversy erupts, and this time the anger is coming from some of his most ardent supporters.
When President Trump made his statement on the matter, he expressed his support for Attorney General Bondi. He then pointed out that the JFK files and MLK Jr files have all been released… but to what point? Were there any earth-shattering revelations in either? Are there files connected to Jeffrey Epstein regarding the people who were his clients and guests on his island? Their sexual habits and abuses of victims who were allegedly underage? Epstein allegedly used that information as “insurance” against these people… people who had the power to turn against him should he prove to be an… inconvenience.
Daily Wire podcaster Michael Knowles had the most prescient response. He basically said that if the Epstein files existed, there was no way the government was going to allow them to be accessed by the public.
On the legal side, the credibility of one of the prime witnesses against Epstein, Ms. Virginia Giuffre (allegedly an underage victim of Prince Andrew on Epstein’s Island) had been seriously damaged when she lost a defamation case against Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz, whom she accused of being one Epstein’s guests on his island, and an abuser of several underage girls. Dershowitz vehemently denied this allegation and countersued in Court. And he won.
Giuffre’s credibility was further damaged when one of the other victims, Rina Oh, sued her for defamation and also alleged that she (Giuffre) also victimized underage girls in their sexual acts on the island. Despite achieving a significant financial settlement with Prince Andrew, Virginia Giuffre’s life began a downward spiral. Her family life imploded and she suffered a mental breakdown. All of this culminated with her suicide in April of this year. Like Jeffrey Epstein, her life and story are a major subject for “conspiracy theorists.”
Prior to her suicide, she went on her Instagram account and claimed that she was in a car crash with a bus which resulted in renal failure. Her family said that police were called but that “no one was available to come to the scene.” Initially, they accepted the verdict of the coroner that she died by suicide, but Giuffre’s father late claimed that “somebody had gotten to her.” Giuffre’s Australia based attorney, Karrie Louden, believes otherwise, that there was nothing suspicious about her death. It should also be pointed out that in addition to government prosecutors, several high-priced attorneys are involved in the legal wrangling.
In virtually every court case, the government’s handling of the Epstein crimes has been called into serious question and has been admonished against severely. But to what end? Victims are given a chance to speak, but what of the victimizers? Other than the Court of Public Opinion (which in their case has virtually no consequences) are they ever going to face Justice for their alleged crimes? The answer to that question is probably going to be No. I’ll explain why.
Some months ago, on Michael Knowles podcast, he interviewed Catholic exorcist, Father Dan Reehil. The priest mentioned his prior life before conversion and after entering the priesthood, how he came into the select group of priests who expel demons. Reehil said he knew that the devil existed… and had actually seen him twice, personally. The devil appeared to him as a handsome white man. In one of the meetings, Reehil went to a very swanky place with friends for vacation. This was one of those places which would be considered a paradise for the super wealthy and power. This apparition had appeared to Reehil once before, while he was studying for the priesthood, tempting him go to a bar for a drink. (Reehil mentioned that he previously was a partier and had difficulty kicking his alcoholism after coming into the Catholic faith.) This time, the apparition turned to him and asked, “I thought you were going to be a priest. What are you doing here? This is my domain.” Reehil and his friends immediately left that place.
I am not Roman Catholic, so I do have second thoughts about Reehil’s experiences. But there is a part of it that that confirms what the Apostle Paul said to the Ephesians about “principalities and powers and spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Epstein and people like him (there are many who are just as evil as he doing exactly what he did, or worse) are people who have either surrendered to or are heavily influenced by Satan and the powers of darkness because of their appetite for Sin. They do not have to be demon possessed as much as they are under their influence because of their uncontrolled Sin nature.
How does one explain the existence of people like Jeffrey Epstein and/or their survival for so long? How does one explain that several of these characters escape justice during their lifetimes? The answer to why these people continue to escape justice on Earth is because they are temporarily shielded by the Powers of Darkness. But not completely, nor forever.
Everyone who reads this article must decide about what they believe about the Bible and what it says about God in totality. If you choose to believe the Bible and what it says about God in totality, then what I am about to say will not only make some sense, but will relieve your mind about injustice and the existence of evil in the world. If not, you will be driven mad by the unfairness of this world.
When Satan tempted Jesus after His baptism at the Jordan River, it was all about choices between the will of God (in Jesus’ case, the will of His Father in heaven) verses all that encompasses the desires of the Self (what the Apostle John called the Lust of the Flesh, the Lust of the Eyes, and the Pride of Life). Doing something unnatural or illegal for the satisfying of an appetite and not understanding that it is done for the fulfillment of a temporary need can lead to an addiction. The exploitation of one’s person or talents for public promotion and not understanding that said person becomes nothing more than an object of spectacle rather than a person of honor or respect. The last temptation, the one in which Satan’s objective is revealed in full: “Bow to me and I will give you the world.” How many “successful” figures, from businessmen to entertainers to politicians, have taken the bait and in essence bowed to the Devil?
You’ll see it in the news, on the internet, in the movies, every day. Money does not corrupt. Rather humankind already has corruption built into themselves with the Sin nature. It is a proven fact of history that education and wealth have only augmented the Sin nature in humanity, not alleviated it. We covered this in January of 2023 with the story of Sam Bankman-Fried and the FTX scandal (“Effective Altruism” and one of the Biggest Scams in American History – Maranatha Full Gospel Church).
Harvey Weinstein and his sexual abuse of Hollywood actresses (there is suspicions now that some of these actresses may have used their bodies to advance their positions as well).
Donald Sterling, the former owner of the Los Angeles Clippers who was banned from the NBA after recordings of his racist rants were made public by his mistress “V. Stiviano” (her reasons were not altruistic).
Ellen DeGeneres whose comedic career imploded after the revelation of her autocratic behavior and possible abuse of her staff of her television show, not to mention the fact she was a close compadre of Sean ‘P.Diddy’ Colmes.
All these people put on a public façade while privately committing acts that beggar the imagination. All of them masked their evil by supporting liberal/leftists causes or parties. When called to account for their actions, not one of them had any remorse for their actions, but rather the regret that they were caught. Without exception, they like Jeffrey Epstein and all his clientele, had bowed to the Devil.
No, the Devil does not come as an apparition with a pitchfork and pointed ears. But the Word of God is present in this world, most of the time passively than active. But it is here. And so are the devil’s words from Genesis 3, “Hath God said…?”
Has God said that one shall not commit adultery? Or steal? Or bear false witness against his/her neighbor?
Has God said, one shall not kill? One shall not covet? And yet, all of these happen with increasing frequency. Why? Because of the violation of the first three of the Ten Commandments. Because of a willful rebellion against the One who died on the Cross of Calvary.
I know that many are demanding to see the ‘Epstein Files’ so that the guilty parties will finally have their crimes exposed to the world. The so-called wealthy elite, the powerbrokers. We always suspected their existence and now we hope to see the Bonafide proof. Of what? A one world government? The mystery of evil at work in our time?
Whether or not it is revealed, I have learned in my 48 years of life that one must focus on the Lord Jesus Christ, the Resurrection and the Life, if one is to live in a sinful world. I have seen the corrupt get away with their corruption after destroying innocent people. I have seen a corrupt judicial system put innocent people in prison without due process. I have seen people thrown in jail for emojis. I have seen people arrested and prosecuted merely for praying in front of abortion clinics. I have seen vile, corrupt prosecutors like Fani Willis in Georgia and Letitia James (the NY state attorney general) target people for invented crimes, make money on the prosecutions, get caught, and then reelected.
Let’s face it, the Lord Jesus said it best when He said, “Verily I say unto you, except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And who shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But whose shall offend one of these little one which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe unto the world because of offences! For it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! Wherefore if they hand or they foot offend thee (meaning if it causes you to be offended or to be offensive), cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire (hellfire). And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.” (Matthew 18:3-9)
Hard words? Perhaps. But it is the Truth. Justice ultimately belongs to God. And one day, EVERYONE will stand before His bar. It is because of that Truth that life on Earth becomes bearable. I take a look at the world. In every place, among every people are the stories of injustice. From mass murder and genocide to the man or woman who got away with crimes because of powerful connections… as the Bible says, the Earth cries out because of injustice. But I close with the words of an American poet from a little over 100 years ago.
“Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne. Yet that Scaffold sways the future, and behind the dim unknown standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above His own.” - James Russel Lowell (from The Present Crisis)
