SPECIAL: New Ad Campaign Depicts Demons Emerging From Abyss, Attacking "Sheeple"!

Warning Light

I receive many emails from readers all the time alerting me to certain events and items that have eschatological significance. Sometimes I can include these in the alert and many times I cannot due to time and space constraints. However, the depravity of this one along with it's alluded scriptural reference that although twisted is so disturbing, I believe we must be aware of it. Thank you to the alert reader who shared this.

Scion, a division of Toyota whose marketing focus is towards Generation-Y (generally born from 1978 - 1998) has a new ad campaign called "Little Deviants" in which the phrase "be a little deviant" is used towards their new xD vehicle. What is even stranger is that the production company that produced this campaign is called Shilo.

The campaign so far involves a theatrical quality video spot running in movie theaters and "The Book of Deviants" flash based video game on the Scion website where players are encouraged to kill the "boring and bleating Sheeple"

There a few concerns that immediately came to mind when viewing this:

  1. That the reference to "Sheeple" and the adjectives used to describe them can easily be deduced by someone to describe a Christian (although I suppose it could be any "uncool" person also) and therefore be nothing but a slick advertisement that could promote the persecution and murder of followers of Christ in the minds of some.
  2. These little deviants (that look suspiciously like demons) come up out of the earth and begin attacking people - or the boring "Sheeple". Whether they know it or not what is being described (albeit incorrectly if the "Sheeple" are indeed Christians) is the blowing of the 5th trumpet in Revelation chapter 9 when demonic beings are released from the abyss, not to kill Christians, but to torment unbelievers to such a point that they will wish to die.
  3. Lastly, in light of the recent and not so recent mass murders involving children and young adults such as Virginia Tech, the Amish massacre in Pennsylvania, Columbine, and the Long Island teens just arrested for planning just the same sort of plot, how can even non-Christians stand for this kind of absolute insanity where kids are marketed to with a video and video game that tells them to go "slaughter as many people as they can"? How can any company act so irresponsibly?

Something has definitely changed within the last few years and the people (or should I say the "sheeple") need to wake up. Whether if you believe in Christ or not you must realize all hell has broken loose on earth and it is coming for you and your family and especially your children.

Today is the day for salvation! I plead of you to not wait any longer.

And if you are a believer, do not wait any longer to sound the trumpet of warning. These things show to me that the protection we have had for so long in America and the Western nations is being removed. With the failure of the true church to stop the false teachers and the con artist ripping off the poor, the law will begin to move in to do the job (see the last Be Alert! SPECIAL) and many of them will only be too happy to go after the law abiding believer as is already happening in the United States. The next alert on persecution will prove this beyond any doubt.

A dark fairy tale depicts the gruesome slaughter of the boring sheeple
Scion's Little Deviants Campaign Revelation 6:9-11
When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they had maintained; and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" And there was given to each of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for a little while longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed even as they had been, would be completed also.

Revelation 9:1-11
Then the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from heaven which had fallen to the earth; and the key of the bottomless pit was given to him. He opened the bottomless pit, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. Then out of the smoke came locusts upon the earth, and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. And they were not permitted to kill anyone, but to torment for five months; and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings a man. And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death flees from them. The appearance of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle; and on their heads appeared to be crowns like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. They had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions. They had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, of many horses rushing to battle. They have tails like scorpions, and stings; and in their tails is their power to hurt men for five months. They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon.

When first coming to Scion's Home page your met with a picture of the new xD car with this quote:

Enter a world of Deviants
Help the little deviants take back the city from the bonds of dull conformity.


3) The Book of Deviants
"Something a little Deviant"
Scion's Book of Deviants

Very disturbing marketing and promotion campaign starts with a book that looks to be a bible but is the Book of Deviants. Goes on to become a game where you kill the sheeple.

Chapter 1 of the Book of Deviants:
Send the Sheeple from the streets and find them in the highrises. Knock the stuffing out of them and collect their blood. It can be used to your benefit. Turn that aweful bleeting into awesome bleeding.

Scion grew from Toyota Project Genesis, a failed effort to bring younger buyers to the Toyota marque in the United States. Scion is Toyota's entry-level brand, slotting below Toyota in the lineup. Currently, Toyota markets Scion-branded vehicles in the United States, Guam, and Puerto Rico. - - - -
