One of Ben's most popular works, the ANTI-THOUGHT-CONTROL DICTIONARY provides fresh insight to terms commonly misunderstood and misused in church circles.

People can be controlled if their thoughts can be controlled. Since words are thoughts in visible form, words can be manipulative tools to change the way people think – thereby changing and controlling the masses. To accomplish this, the controllers only need to adjust or change the MEANINGS of important words to fit their particular political/religious paradigm, and invent NEW EMOTIONALLY-CHARGED TERMS to keep us confused and off balance.

Eventually, all important words used by the public will automatically convey only the meanings that are approved by the Beast System's word masters. When they accomplish this it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to explain concepts of truth … because the very words we use will have become meaningless.

If we carelessly acquiesce to meaning changes in this war of words, then we will become thought-controlled people. However, if we constantly define our words, terms and phrases – keeping them in tune with Gods Word – and insist others define their terms so we can know what they are actually saying, we will be guarding against mind-control, and we will be blessed with a "sound mind"
(2 Tim. 1:7) in the midst of an unsound world.
