The Olympics Straight from Hell

The Olympics Straight from Hell - Encounter Today - Blog

Viewers of the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics were disturbed upon the presentation of this year’s display of anti-Christian sentiment and imagery.

From the degradation of the Last Supper to the removal of the cross from atop the official Olympic posters, there was more than one instance of targeted messaging.

Despite the Paris Olympic organizers having come out with an official apology days after outrage over the Last Supper had ensued, the damage to their reputation had already been done and there was more imagery than just the Last Supper billions of Christians the world over had concerns with.

THOMAS JOLLY

First off, let us address the individual who is responsible for the events which transpired at the opening ceremony, as well as the closing ceremony which has yet to take place; Thomas Jolly.

Jolly, a French native, is a theater artist and is responsible (along with those who chose him) for the entirety of the ceremonies.

Whilst in an interview about his role in crafting the ceremonies, Jolly stated:

“How do you write a show in which everybody, at one point, feels represented and a part of this bigger thing, this bigger ‘us’? For an artist, it is a beautiful responsibility to have.”

“It’s ambitious but also complex because one has to broaden one’s own imagery, one’s own outlook and include everyone, understand everyone so that no one feels left behind,” he added.

This display of “inclusion” had drag queens portraying Jesus and his disciples, so this message of “leaving no one behind” is utter garbage.

Then again, the “inclusion” of 2024 will always exclude one demographic or at the very least, demoralize it and that’s precisely what Jolly did – he mocked 2.4 billion Christians with drag queens in the name of representation.

Representation of what, though?

Sin, debauchery, wickedness and evil – that’s what.

A PRECURSOR?

Before any of the anti-Christian imagery depicted throughout the Olympic opening ceremony was even put on public display, however, there was an image which gave a glimpse into what we would soon see unfold.

This image was the Paris Olympic poster which intentionally removed the cross from atop Napoleon’s tomb, replacing it with a mere spear.

Why the removal of a tiny cross on a historic building? To what offense does the cross of Christ hold?

We will leave you to answer these questions.

In all frankness, this poster looked more like a circus than a celebration of sport and athletic ability and that is precisely what the world was given the opening night of these Paris Olympics – a circus focused on smearing Christianity.

SINGLE RIDER

One of the more telling features amongst the many we will be outlining for you here in this article on how this opening ceremony carried much of the anti-christ spirit throughout, was witnessed by way of the single rider on a pale horse that seemingly trotted across the Seine River.

This visual was straight out of the book of Revelation:

“And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.” Revelation 6:8

This fake “pale horse” was converted into a real animal which delivered the Olympic flag to a stage which also hosted a golden calf’s head.

Symbolically, the golden calf’s head represents a supreme act of apostasy and in worship to it, the rejection of faith. It also serves as a representation of the Canaanite fertility god Baal to whom babies were sacrificed to.

LAST SUPPER

Amidst receiving praise for his work which some are labeling as mere “art,” Jolly’s spoof act of Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper which had drag queens sat behind a table in imitation of how Christ and his followers sat down for the holy ritual caused quite the stir amongst believers and non-believers alike.

Two examples of responses were seen with professional football player Harrison Butker who said:
“This is crazy, Be not deceived. God is not mocked.”

Second to this was fitness influencer Jillian Micheals who lives a lesbian lifestyle, to express her outrage on the subject:

French Member of the European Parliament, Marion Maréchal also couldn’t hold back. She took to X stating:

Telecommunications company C Spire removed all advertising from the Olympics after they mocked Christianity in their opening ceremony.

In a statement made on X by C Spire, the company stated:

“We were shocked by the mockery of the Last Supper during the opening ceremonies of the Paris Olympics. C Spire will be pulling our advertising from the Olympics.”

C Spire is the sixth-largest wireless provider in the United States.

Upon news of the company’s announcement, Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves commented:

“I am proud to see the private sector in Mississippi step up and put their foot down. God will not be mocked. C Spire drew a common-sense, appropriate line.”

The woman who portrayed Jesus in the disgusting depiction goes by the name Barbara Butch, a lesbian woman who is also a fat acceptance activist.

Despite claims that the “Last Supper” depiction was actually a “feast of Dionysus” depiction, Butch didn’t get the official memo, taking to Instagram stating alongside a picture of Jolly’s last supper saying:

“Oh yes! Oh yes! The new gay testament!”

During the Last Supper debacle, a man painted blue appeared upon the table wearing nothing but a few flowers to cover the intimate parts of his being.

This man was placed in the middle of the table which was meant to represent him being the ‘dish’ in the drag queen recreation of Jesus at the Last Supper.

Apparently, this man was meant to depict the ancient god Dionysus who, in Greek religion and myth, is the god of wine-making, orchards and fruit, vegetation, fertility, festivity, insanity, ritual madness, religious ecstasy, and theater.

The dancing naked blue man was a musical artist who was singing his single “Nu” (Naked in English). Hardly viewable material for families the world over.

It is believed that after one of the drag queen performers had his genitalia exposed on LIVE television, organizers of the Olympics had the opening ceremony removed from YouTube.

Geert Wilders, Chairman of the Netherlands Party for Freedom, posted on X:

There was immense symbolism across the board, and as such, we thought it be wise to simply lay out before you the rest of the messaging for you to come to your own conclusions:

Children intermingled with men dressed in drag:

In addition to all that was witnessed, rapper Snoop Dogg performed whilst wearing a Baphomet necklace. (Baphomet represents satan.)

Professional boxer Ryan Garcia has since called for a boycott of the Olympics in response to their anti-Christian opening ceremony:

“Hey guys, I’m gonna be real. What they did at the Olympics, they all need to get canceled.”

“You guys think this is a joke. It ain’t a joke. Christians stand up, boycott the Olympics. The Olympics are done. Once you disrespect Jesus in front of billions of people, it’s finished.”

French bishops have also come out publicly deploring the “scenes of mockery of Christianity” during the Olympics opening ceremony.

Conclusion

All in all, silence on this matter and any other against the faith isn’t just wrong, it is a point of compromise.

God will not be mocked, for students of the Bible, this we know only too well.

Be not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ! Take a strong stand in defense of it! (Romans 1:16)

Unbelievers the world over can see how deeply wrong it is for Christianity to be mocked and ridiculed and there are even those, like Elon Musk, who are pointing out the fact that this is wrong!

Let us cease to sit on the sidelines, hoping others will defy the culture and speak up. Let us be the ones who wake up our countries with the truth of the gospel! And who’s to say that this very instance cannot be used to point people to Christ?

Our God, who is the same yesterday, today and forever, can take the foolishness of this situation and turn it around for His glory.

Thank you for your support.

If you appreciate the work we do to spread the good news of Jesus Christ, please consider giving a gift to help us continue this work. Maranatha!
