The CIA, ACIM and MK-ULTRA, as you know, came about 2,000 years after the dunging of Jerusalem (~29AD)--hardly would they be authorities in the original matter. What any counterfeiter or subverter has done against the saints or against the Christ's lawful assembly they will no doubt answer for Karmically if not otherwise. No doubt, 'converting' (or 'devolving') orthodox Christian congregations to Druckerist, secular theaters would take some subversive kinds of goings-on. As for 'preaching' the Gospel, I don't recall Jesus 'evangelizing' through fear mongering, he healed people and did things to win folks over to the truth: turning them back to the Father and away from the lifestyles and behaviors which caused severance. The true saints led and do lead from darkness to light, from poverty to abundance from fearfulness to soundness of mind.
The 'New Age' way (elitism by syntax and culling). "Just can't have true, orthodox Christians/Judeans interfering with the PYSOPS or the culling!"
The Counterfeits Must Necessary Rely On Fearmongering
When the counterfeits lack the spiritual authority and divine assistance necessary for true form ministry or conversion (edification, healing, conserving the peace, promotion of equity etc.), perhaps they must necessarily use fear mongering to win a captive audience. It may very well even be that back in Jesus' time, the warnings he gave were to those of Israel or Judah (those who knew better or should know better) rather than to strangers (those who had nary a clue).
I have come across smallish congregations in the South who would have people go around and pray for businesses and the businesses would suddenly see upsurge in sales and financial problems disappear. Fearmongering? No. Proofs of the truth? Yes. Did they go around preaching hellfire and brimstone to those who had never heard of Y'shua/Joshua/Yehoshua/Jesus? No.
Would promoting destructive or harmful lifestyles or habits among one's neighbors honestly be love?For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Galatians 5:14
The counterfeits like to feed off of pain and fear. The movie Monsters Inc. or Monsters University jokingly illustrates how fear is fed off of (i.e. the monsters feed off the fear they invoke in children (the spiritually immature) at nighttime (who dwell in darkness)). The true form of ministry gets to the root cause of the pain and fear with a view to eliminating both (reverence is one thing, fear is another). Sin can cause traumas that lead to schisms (internal separation or fragmentation)
