Question #1

"Baptism of the Holy Ghost"???  What are they talking about?
Is it Biblical? (also, comments on PM & SCN)

First a note that is not in original reply the above reader, as she is a regular reader and knows our position on the good pastor, Pastor Murray, and the Shepherds Chapel:

    In my opinion, Pastor Murray is a sincere and dedicated Bible teacher and pastor.  It has been, I don't know, over ten or twelve years, plus, at least, since I first studied Pastor Murray's Bible teachings.  I was Baptized by the Shepherds Chapel, and pastor Arnold Murray is the one who taught me how to study God's Word.  I am indebted to him and his ministry for that, always of course giving ultimate gratitude to our Heavenly Father and His Anointed One, the Lord Jesus Christ; ever thankful for the presence of the Holy Spirit when studying the Scriptures of Life.

    I have seen the several Websites that attack Pastor Murray, I have read their arguments and found them all wanting.  Most times the disagreements seem to stem from the critics not really understanding what Pastor Murray is saying; also, many-many-many (most always without exception) times the problem is that the critics themselves don't understand the Biblical doctrine or interpretation—and based upon that they call Murray a false teacher because he teaches it differently than they have come to learn it—even though most times it is they themselves who are in the error.  In essence, they are "amateur heretic-hunters" misdirecting their efforts, albeit sometimes well meaning.  Pastor Arnold Murray himself addressed many of these disagreements and misunderstandings (and outright lies against him) in his own published on-line Answer to Critics.

    Now, I certainly could not be called a "yes man" for Pastor Murray, as I have in places disagreed with the good pastor here and there; and I have written of my disagreements on the Website, out in the open, in love, where they occurred.  Mostly the disagreements are relating to prophecy matters, and not in core Christian doctrine which pertains to salvation issues.  And let's be honest with each other here: when interpreting the prophecies in the Bible, who of us would venture to stake our lives on the fact that we are 100% correct?  Naturally, even the best Bible teacher is not going to be perfect.  That, I believe, is why Pastor Murray always tells people to check out every teaching with the Bible and prayer and come to your own position.  I like that, and it always assured me that the man was sincere.  It is far and few between when a teacher/preacher will tell you to double-check their own teachings.  Like I said, I like that; and I include the same admonition in my own teachings.  And regarding "knowing everything," did not Apostle Paul even say:

1 Corinthians 13:9-13
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity [love].  KJV

And about carelessly casting away brethren who don't think in lock-step with us, did not Jesus even say:

Mark 9:38-40
38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
40 For he that is not against us is on our part.  KJV

    And while I do have some disagreements with the good pastor's interpretations on some matters, there is no better preacher that I have ever found (and I am aware of very many pastor's teachings).  In other words, he is the best out there.

    And while I have no intention of addressing line by line the criticisms (and outright intentional lies) about Pastor Murray, I simply cannot let the below two glaring ones stand unaddressed.  Because they are just not true; and I hate lies, especially when they intrude into matters of the Lord's work and His workers.

1).  Pastor Murray does NOT deny the Holy Trinity—God forbid!—and he teaches it as it is found in the Bible.  What a terrible and injurious lie to spread about any Christian pastor—shame on any Christian who helped to spread that!  (We are in agreement with PM on this, and we teach: The Holy Spirit & The Holy Trinity)

2).  Pastor Murray is not a false prophet, he is not a prophet at all, nor has he ever claimed to be a prophet; he is a Christian Bible teacher and a pastor of a church.  What he did in 1980 or 1981 was to try to add-up the years when speaking of Daniel's prophecy and came out to a possible year of, I believe, 1981, for some part of Daniel to begin.  He wasn't "prophesying," he was trying to interpret the dates and times in the Bible.  In the strict sense of the word, a "Prophet" brings new revelation from God; pastor Murray wasn't doing that, he was trying, like we all do, to find in the Scriptures the season when the endtime events would come about.  Now, if he had said something to the effect of: "God spoke to me and told me to tell you that this or that was going to happen next week", then he would have been making a prophecy—but he didn't do that!  So it is lie for critics to say that Pastor Murray made a "false prophecy."  And based upon that wrong, they then deduce that Pastor Murray was a "false prophet" because the prophecy didn't come to pass.  But pastor Murray wasn't making a prophecy!!!

    At worst he was trying to find the dates, the time.  Besides, what Murray said would happen, shall happen, because it is in God's prophecies; the only thing is that it wasn't going to happen when Pastor Murray had once (26 years ago) thought it would.  That's all there is to it.  Simple, innocent error—not false prophesies!  Christians everywhere, of all stripes, whether you like Murray or not, ought to really stop these people from getting away with these false allegations.

    Call them on it to their face, especially the professed Christians among the accusers; make them explain for you what is a prophecy, verses what is when one simply tries to interpret the prophecies of the Bible made by the real prophets of God and written down for us to study today and try to interpret!  I'd love to sit down with a some of these disrespectful know-it-alls (who really don't know diddley) and discus doctrine across the table!  And these types know that they are treating pastor Murray disingenuously, they are just trying to catch the pastor in his words like the Pharisees tried to do to Christ "And they send unto him [Jesus] certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words." (Mk 12:13).  Sadly, some of the pastor's (newer) students bought into the trick.  The list of preachers that thought they had found in Scripture the key to knowing the season of the endtime events is longer than my credit report.  :o)

    You have to understand that satan will always come against a good teacher of God's Word, satan will use degenerate, misled, and prideful souls to lie, slander, and defame any dangerous-to-satan Bible teacher/preacher.  Pastor Murray has done much to alert people to satan's designs, thereby forewarning the Christians, hopefully forearming them.  How many TV preachers do you hear warning you that antichrist is coming first to deceive, before the the true Messiah Jesus Christ comes?  Very, very, very few, if any; and the ones that did, probably heard it first from Murray.  What I do hear from most of the TV ministers is that "Jesus is just around the corner", never even mentioning this character referred to as the antichrist who's coming first to draw men to him away from God(!); and, "Oh, how about some more cash please."

  There's nothing wrong with donating to a ministry, but don't let that be the ministries main focus; or worse, don't delude people into thinking that God will multiply their donations and return them back to the giver several times over the original amount.  If that were the case, and the reason why they made an offering, then where would be the reward and blessing for donating?  It wouldn't be a donation to help support God's work along, it would be an investment to line their own pockets.

    Back on subject.  Is it any wonder that satan would delude weak men to tear Murray down?  And don't forget that Pastor Murray has many enemies among the Rapturists, for he takes away their make-believe security blanket; and in the money-grubbers among the clergy, for he takes away their ill-gotten mammon.  Few people really, are comfortable with the truth when it hits too close to home.  But I say that that's when you should embrace it and learn from it, making corrections based upon it.

   Now, if someone asked me where they could tune into TV to find a good Bible study program, I would recommend the TV and Internet streaming-video Shepherds Chapel with Pastor Murray program.  Is Murray perfect?  Are you?  I'm not.  Only Jesus was perfect.  Even Apostle Peter had to be corrected by Apostle Paul (Gal 2:11-21).  And if Peter, who walked with Christ, talked to Him face to face, sat at His feet and learned from the Master Himself, and would go on to die for Him: could make an honest error, so too can any one of us.

Galatians 2:11-14
11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I [Paul] withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?  KJV

    And to the harsh critics of Pastor Murray who take honest error and make it out to be lie, and who twist what the man says against him, and who presume themselves to be teachers of Scripture, I say:

Luke 6:36-38
36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.  KJV

— Nick Goggin; Editor, WBSG.

 

And now to the answer sent to the reader:

Hi, good to hear that you are well. My New Year's was just fine, I hope that yours was.  I looked at that Website; the fellow means well but many of his interpretations are off.  I don't have the time to deal with him; and besides, he's not looking to learn—he's looking to teach.  I think I figured out what happened to him.  He's obviously in one of those "woo-woo" "spiritual manifestations" churches where they manifest all kinds of weird spiritual impostors.  He mentions that he has a new church but doesn't give the denomination.  Excerpts of what he says he experienced after leaving the Shepherds Chapel:

    Where he says, "which I could actually feel ", I'm wondering if that is the first time that he ever felt spiritual presence, regardless of from the Holy Spirit or familiar (evil) spirits that mimic?  Then he "confirms" that "real power" by his sudden talking in tongues, which is not a Biblical practice they way that the tongues people do it.  Then, in another place he says:

    Do you see again how he emphasizes 'feeling,' 'sensuality,' wherein he says "when I felt that strange and wonderful POWER on me" ?  Satan uses this desire to 'feel God' to 'feel your religion' (wear it on your sleeve) against people by imitating it.  Now, I know the feeling of the presence of the Holy Spirit in prayer, and it isn't some big side-show.  You just know 'cause you know. Perhaps this man never was a true Christian, I don't know.  It is for God alone to search the hearts.  But I do know that when they desire dramatics, satan gives it to them in the form of 'talking in tongues,' 'slain in the spirit,' 'drunk in the spirit,' 'barking in the spirit,' etc. ad nausea, these things that many of them do in their modern "churches." 

    I got a fella I've been E-mailing with who thinks that he has committed the unforgivable sin because he isn't manifesting all these "feelings" of the power of the Holy Spirit in him.  That poor guy won't listen to anything; five or seven E-mails, some of them long, two telephone conversations, and he won't come off it; and sadly, he will probably end up in one of these woo-woo sensual-spirit "feeling" churches.  Then his problems really begin.  I believe (know) that he picked up this "you're damned" stuff in a false church.  He can't tell me what the unforgivable sin is, he's just sure that he committed it.  (Please pray for him for God to show him a sign that he isn't damned to hell—he asked me to pray that for him, so join me please, why don't you praying folk? [Jms 5:16]) 

    But it is false teaching that does this to poor uninformed people, and is the reason that I speak so strongly against the false teachers.  I have little mercy on false teachers because they injure tender twigs.  This poor man (from China) is terrified!

    Anyway, there is only one Baptism now, and there is no separate "Baptism in the Holy Ghost."  When you are Baptized you ARE Baptized by the Holy Spirit of God into Christ Jesus.  The "new-thing" churches make up this elaborate ritual for this "second Baptism" (which they say must be accompanied by "talking in tongues," or it isn't genuine [!]) which is not contained in the Bible.  Oh, they will point out the Scripture about Christ Baptizing with "Holy Ghost and fire," but that was the Christian Baptism that we now all are Baptized with.  We know that there isn't a literal fire involved with Baptism, the Holy Spirit is likened unto a fire, it is a metaphor—this is the Christian Baptism, and there is only one of them.

    The "He" is Jesus Christ in the above. 

    Nowhere did the Apostles second-Baptize someone except where the person had only received the Baptism of John (John the Baptist).

    There were two Baptisms in the Bible, but the first, the Baptism of John, was only until Christ was glorified.  After that there was (and still is) only one Christian Baptism.  The Baptism of John has been done away with.

    And as far as speaking in babbling tongues that no one understands?  Well, it isn't of God.  And if it isn't the Spirit of God speaking through them, then what spirit is it?  Certainly a tongues-talker is not to be sought out for Bible teaching.  That's for absolute sure.  They need a "mini-exorcism" themselves and then need to get back on track with sound doctrine, and stop entertaining familiar spirits.

    Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

What we Christians can do T O D A Y
Stay sharp, be informed--make it a point to be informed. Watch current events from many varied sources and compare them--making adjustments for their individual prejudices. Filter everything that you see, hear, learn, and already know, with the Biblical prophecies and what our Lord said was to come and how we ought act--for the Bible is the final authority under Heaven for all matters Christian. Keep an aware eye about you, watch for the subtle signs; learn your enemy, his ways, his method of operation--then avoid him. Prepare yourself and for yourself. Keep your head down, see and don't be seen, hear and don't be heard--save to spread the Gospel of Life and to witness Jesus Christ to the unsaved. Moreover, above all else, pray and stay in the Word of God--and then, God willing, we'll see you on the other side of the Tribulation.

Question #2

Hello [Xxxx].  The fact of the matter is a that if "they" want to know who is reading what, all they need do is check the logs of the computer number of the people visiting whatever Websites.  The Internet world, once one of anonymity, is now become a very small world, where everybody is tracked and recorded in huge databases.  These databases are fully searchable by the powers that be (TPTB) should they "need" to go back and check. 

    As long as they are doing nothing illegal, I see no problem subscribing to newsletters.  But be aware that if you are on a mailing list which one day "they" might deem "illegal" or "hateful," then "they" might try to trump up some "conspiracy case" charging everyone involved as a member.

Liberal Judaic activists, along with the Jewish Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith [the ADL], want to end Christian/conservative activism in America. EXCERPT: "Last year [2006] the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith [ADL] reeled from a tidal wave of public protest to their "anti-hate bill." Now a coalition of powerful pro-hate bill senators, led by Carl Levin and Joe Lieberman plus Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, House Speaker, are attempting to pass legislation that will severely hamper such citizen activism. "Levin and Lieberman's hidden agenda is contained as Sec. 220 within the newest version of the lobbying reform bill: S.1, The Legislative Transparency and Accountability Act of 2007. "...Liberal Jewish activists Levin and Leiberman don't see it that way. After all, three times in the past two years grassroots America has helped defeat ADL's cherished federal hate bill. We voted down same-sex marriage. We forced NBC to cancel its blasphemous program "The Book of Daniel." "...In reaction, Levin and Lieberman want grassroots America subject to the suspicions and restrictions imposed on federal lobbyists and members of Congress. How do they propose to legislate such restrictions? In Sec. 220 they define "grassroots lobbying" as the act of communicating your views to the government. If you make a call to Congress expressing your point of view, you are involved in grassroots lobbying. "...One of the most disturbing provisions of this bill is that anyone who pays dues or makes contributions to the grassroots lobbyist organization, donates time to it, is involved in its governance, is an honorary or life member, or is an employee, officer, director, or member is considered a member of that organization. Such a person, if he is to continue to associate as a member will be expected by the organization to share the cost of the possible $100,000 fine if quarterly reports to the government are inaccurate or not on time. "...The implication of this is catastrophic to grassroots lobbying organizations such as Christian conservative political action groups and politically active churches. Many organizations will be unwilling to be held accountable for the paid lobbying activities of their members. Many members will decline to support or be associated with grassroots lobbying organizations for fear of being expected to share the cost of huge federal penalties if the organization does not please the state. How will many politically active churches finally respond? They’ll decide it’s not worth the hassle and forsake moral issues and political activism altogether. In other words, they will just preach “the gospel” and let the liberals run the country. What Do ADL/Levin/Lieberman Really Want? These liberal Jewish activists, along with the Jewish Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, want to end Christian/conservative activism in America. They also want to establish an Orwellian thought crimes bureaucracy similar to Canada's, eradicating free speech. They resent the power of the common man to thwart legislation vital to their objectives. They want to diminish the power of grassroots America to protest, and be protected in such protest by the First Amendment...." [In other words, they want to discourage, neuter, and hamstring Christian influence and resistance, by dismantling such groups of concerned Christians, so as to facilitate the installation of the full social (immoral) agenda of the International Judaics—without any pesky interference from God, Christ, Bible, Christian, or conscience.] Complete article: LOBBY REFORM BILL CRIPPLES FREE SPEECH  by Rev. Ted Pike. National Prayer Network. 10 Jan 07.

    The way that the conspiracy laws work (like RICO) is that anyone involved with a group is charged with the highest crime that any other member of that group committed or is accused of committing.  An example would be in the "war on drugs" where the RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) charges are used, in, say, a street corner drug-selling operation; would be that the lookouts (the kids that whistle when the Police cars approach a drug-selling location to warn the sellers/customers) can and often are charged with the offence of "delivery of controlled substance" (a Felony) because they (the lookouts) were part of that organization.  In fact, if any member of that group commits a murder related to that groups activities, then even the lowliest member of that group or organization can, by law, be charged for that murder, even though they were unaware that such a murder was to take place, and weren't there when it happened, and did not actually do the shooting.  The government is using these draconian RICO laws not against the Mafia (for which they were designed) but against smaller groups and Patriot groups and "White supremacist" groups (but not Black or Hispanic Supremacist groups).  Some day they shall use them on Christian antichrist-resisting groups. (See panel at right [especially the blue text sections] for another example of this tactic of "grouping people" for "management (control) purposes" and then punishing the whole group corporately; all with the ultimate goal of destroying any group, any organizing of people, who stand in the way of "their" plans and programs.)

    Another tactic that "they" use is that they infiltrate a targeted organization with a plant, a spy, so to speak.  Then when that plant is fully vested as a member of that group, they have him commit a crime, which all of the group's members are then charged with in a conspiracy indictment.  That is why you see Jewish "neo-Nazi" members when the groups are arrested.  The Judaics were the plants, they were the ones that drew Swastikas on the Synagogues, thus incriminating everyone in that group of a "Hate Crime" under the conspiracy laws.  Of course the Jewish identity of the perpetrator is never mentioned in the Judaic-controlled media.  And the Judaic gets probation, because "he cooperates in the investigation" and all other members are charged to the fullest extent of the law.  That is great way for "them" to misuse the legal system and the long arm of the law to dissolved Patriot groups, Constitutionalist groups, Separatist groups, Christian groups, and any group that stands against and exposes the International Judaics plans and schemes—even though these groups are not violent nor illegal.  In effect, "they" provide the criminal activity.  Christians ought to be aware of this and be careful who they "let into their chariot."  Also know that the media is not your friend, it has been co-opted by Christ's enemies centuries ago.

    Anyway, you must must make up your own mind how visible that you want to be, and who's mailing lists that you want to be on.  Though it is no crime in itself to be on any mailing list.  Not yet, anyway. 

    I am on all kinds of mailing lists, I like to stay informed.  I am even on "Jewish" mailing lists.  But then, I am already out—my position is clear—I stand for the Lord Jesus Christ and the Constitution of the United States, in that order; and I am against any and all forms of lawlessness.  I have the mind of a free-speech advocate who refuses to belong to any group that I know advocates lawless and criminal activity.  You will never find violence, hatred, or criminal activity supported here on WBSG.  In short, I, as an American, throw myself under the wing of the US Constitution's right to free association and freedom of speech, and right to peaceful gathering.  These are still rights in America, but not for long.  That is the real purpose behind all the altruistic-sounding "Hate Crime/Hate Speech" Laws—they have nothing to do with hate, they are a "legal" back door to suppression and censorship.

    Hate Laws are alive, they grow and evolve; they start out with, say, that you can't say "kill Homosexuals," and they evolve into "you can't tell your children that Homosexuality is an affront to God in the Bible, and wrong."  It's just that easy.  Once they got their foot into the door with censoring what a man can say and think, it was all downhill from there.  Eventually it will devolve into a situation where if you are sexually active, but won't try a Homosexual/Lesbian act, then you are a Homophobe; which of course is a Hate Crime under newly written statutes awaiting (sure) approval.  See: Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act of 2005 [S. 1145].  Or, If a white woman is sexually active, but will not sleep with a Black man, then she is a Racist; which of course is a Hate Crime under those newly written statutes.  We are not as far away from that as you might think.  Already in the Liberal Universities these pressure tactics are being employed.  Need I remind anyone who runs the liberal multi-everything anything-goes educational system?

    Anyway, as for you, should you join mailing lists?  I don't know.  But do know that all mailing lists, all Internet clicking activity, all phone conversations, all electronic purchases, all land-based mail (soon) are compromisable.  In other words, if you are targeted by the Int. Judaics for whatever reason, then they can reconstruct everything that you do, read, buy, speak on, or write about—many years in the past till now.

    I just don't like the idea of cowering everyday for the rest of my life simply because I believe in Jesus Christ and cherish the truth.  Unfortunately, the choice has been driven by "them" to this: either you remain ignorant, or, you go places and read things that inform you.  However, in gathering that information you expose yourself to their ever watching eye.  Great choices, huh? 

    As for me, I'd rather know what is going on, and deal with the consequences of "daring to learn" in this Judaic-controlled madhouse later on.

  The Patrick Henry of the above quote is famous for his "but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!" speech.  Below is a larger excerpt of the speech wherein the famous quote came from.  As you read it, please understand two things; 1). That this nation was indeed founded by God fearing men, as evidenced by the below reference to God and even using a direct Bible quote: "Peace, peace; when there is no peace." (Jer 6:14b).  And directly contradicting the International Judaic's lie of so-called "separation of church and state," which words actually appear nowhere in the Constitution or her amendments.  And 2). Want it or not, like it or not, the next internal battle in America (and the free West) shall be for Christianity and the right to exercise it against the mammoth machine that the International Judaics are rearing up to suppress it:

    That's it!  And from that "they" take Crosses off water towers, which whole towns paid for; take the Ten Commandments off of court room walls, in a legal system based upon the Bible; forbid your Christian child (oh, how they hate the fact that your child is Christian!) from closing his eyes and saying an internal prayer over his food at school lunch time, though it is his own choice; and tear down Nativity scenes at Christmas time in the town squares, were a majority of the people want them and hardly a voice is hear against them, save for a Jewish voice—all in a nation founded as A CHRISTIAN NATION!  And the above First Amendment to the Constitution which the International Judaics misuse, actually protects the rights to have all the aforementioned things "shall make no law ...prohibiting the free exercise thereof"!  May I say the following respectfully to the reader: "Yes, Virginia, there is a plan."  What they really mean is separation of CHRISTIANITY and state.  And their "separation of church and state" sham is nothing other than a direct attack upon Christianity by "the usual suspects."  Period.

Question #3

Questions?
What are the differences between laws, statutes, and the Ten Commandments? And what are they?
What was fulfilled after Jesus died on the cross besides the blood sacrifices?
Thanks,
[Xxxxxx]
 

Answer:

Hi Xxxxxx.  First off may I state that the Ten Commandments are Laws.  There are many other laws as well.  The first five books of the Bible are also referred to as the torah (the Law), but this is not be confused with Jewish law (Jewish "torah"), which is the Talmud NOT the Old Testament of the Bible!  The Judaics have co-opted the term "torah;" and included with the Old Testament laws, they added-in other "laws (Mitzvot) so that in Judaism you now have 613 laws (the Taryag mitzvot—i.e., "the 613 laws"), thus completely changing the face of God's Law and religion to that of their Babylonian capturers and their false gods (Moloch, the En SOF, Metatron (the "demiurge" of the Talmud & Cabala identical to the Persian sun god "Mithra", etc.).  That is what modern-day Judaism is—a corruption of the Old Testament religion of true Israel. 

Judaism

  Judaism and the religion of the Hebrew Israel people of the Old Testament are two entirely different religions.  And may I say this as gently as possible, half of those who refer to themselves as "Jews" are self-admitted Atheists (they call this, the cleaned-up term: "Secular Judaism").  And as for the "religious Jews": the religion of the modern-day "Jews" is a corruption of the Old Testament religion of Israel as contained in the Old Testament of the Bible, leavened with a "corruption" of the Egyptian, Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian, and Mongol pagan religious systems as contained in the Jewish Babylonian Talmud, combining to form a whole lump of vile and unholy practices, and is an extreme affront to the God of the Universe as revealed in the Holy Bible—both in the Old and New Testaments—same God. 

Catholicism

  And as well, Catholicism is an entirely different religion than that set forth by Jesus Christ and the Apostles.  So very much of the Catholic worship system is not found in the Bible (Holy Water, confessions to a priestcraft for forgiveness, idol worship, lighting candles for the dead, prayers to the dead, incense to idols (icons), the idols themselves (icons and statues), "relics" (actual and literal body parts of deceased humans, severed from the corpses and adored in glass cases at the front of the church near the altar, and vested with intrinsic "magical" powers), the Catholic's cannibalistic Mass (believing that the bread and wine become literal actual flesh and blood of Jesus ["Transubstantiation" they call it]), etc.  As if Judaism didn't blaspheme God enough, Catholicism came in and "finished the job."  But for all this, satan was not done yet:

The Orthodoxy Church

    The "Orthodox" branches of Christianity (which split from Catholicism in circa a.d. 1054 (the "Great Schism"—mainly over dispute of the primacy of the pope) are corrupt as well in their own ways (not the smallest illustrated by their adoption [continuation] of the gross idolatry of the Catholic Church (obeisance to icons; Mother Mary & Saint worship; etc.).  But for all this, satan was not yet done trying to undo God's work with His man.  

The "Protestant" churches

    The "Protestant" branches of Christianity (which all stem from a split from Catholicism in what is referred to as the "Great Reformation" begun in circa a.d. 1517ff [date of Martin Luther's "the 95 Thesis"]) have also been corrupted in other ways (Rapture, Talking in Tongues, Slain In The Spirit, the separate "Holy Ghost Baptism," etc.).  Satan has plans to destroy every work of God.  Wherever we see God plant, we see satan corrupt and uproot and kill on the vine.

    Moving on....

    Simply put (and briefly): A "Law" is something that God says that we are not to do; a "Statute" and an "Ordinance" is something that God says that we are to do.  And a "Statute" is more grave than an "ordinance."  Laws are committed, but Statutes and Ordinances are violated.  You committed murder (by killing), but you violated the Passover (by not keeping it), etc.  The exception to this (in wording only) would in the 4th and 5th Commandments (Keep the Sabbath Day holy & Honor mother and father), but this is in wording only; for, to dishonor mother and father is TO NOT honor them, and to NOT keep the Sabbath Day holy is to not do the commandment to keep it holy "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. ...thou shalt not do any work...." (Ex 20:8-10a).  So that it could be taken as 'though shalt not dishonor mother and father' ....

The (true) Ten Commandments with their proper breaks (the Catholics corrupt the Ten Commandments, explanation follows):

Exodus 20:1-17
20:1 And God spake all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

1st).  3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

2nd).  4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

3rd). 7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

4th). 8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

5th). 12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

6th). 13 Thou shalt not kill.

7th). 14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

8th). 15 Thou shalt not steal.

9th). 16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

10th). 17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.  KJV

   The Catholics corrupt these Ten Commandments in two places, in the first instance they omit the Second Commandment (or in days past they added it onto the First Commandment) to facilitate their blatant (and horribly sinful) idol worship; and in the second place, they split the Tenth Commandment into two separate commandments so as to still end up with Ten instead of only Nine Commandments.  Very transparently disingenuous!

    Why would the Catholic Church omit the Second Commandment of God?  Answer:  To protect their idol worship practices; because if they did not omit the Second Commandment of God, then, for instance, instead of patting the below man on the head for being a "good Catholic," they would have to rightly tell him that he is in grave danger of the Judgment of the Lord God for his gross idolatry:

The 2nd Commandment of God: Exodus 20:4-6 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.  KJV

Moving on....

    To understand this in a simplified manner, Look at it like this, compared to how it works in our law today in modern times: we have felony laws, misdemeanor laws, and city statutes.  So that if you kill a person you have committed a felony and are eligible for one year or more in a state prison.  If you don't register your firearms you have committed a misdemeanor and can only be sentenced to up to a year in a county jail facility, and if you park your car in front of a fire hydrant you violate a city ordinance and receive a parking ticket with a fine.

    Much more could done with this, but for time's sake I'll leave it at that shallow overview; for that is not the important part of your question.  Moving on.... 

What did Jesus Christ fulfill?

Matthew 5:17 [Jesus speaking]
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.  KJV

    With the Advent of Messiah Jesus Christ several things were changed (fulfilled, better stated).  First and most importantly, Christ became the punishment-paid for the sins of the believers.  because of Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross for our sins, we are not guilty of sin that we have repent of in Jesus Christ's name.  Not that God put away His law and allowed sin now—God forbid!  But rather, it is mainly this:  A sin is still a sin, and "For the wages of sin is death" (Rom 6:23a) is still in full force, and all who sin shall face the Judgment; however, those (and only those) who believe upon Jesus Christ AND repent of their individual sins to God in Jesus' name receive forgiveness because Jesus already paid the price of death for that sin.  So, for the Christian believer who repents of any certain sin, that sin is blotted out—it is not to be found on the books on Judgment Day—it has already been adjudicated (settled).  We sin, and Jesus took the punishment—IF, and ONLY if—we believe upon Jesus Christ.  For, how can we lay the punishment at the feet of Christ if we do not even believe upon Him?  We cannot.  One must believe to take part of the promise and blessing.  Belief is so very important to God—we must have faith.  Why?  Because: "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." (Heb 11:6).

Romans 6:23
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.  KJV

1 John 2:1
2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:  KJV

1 Timothy 1:14
14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.  KJV

Romans 6:1-6
6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.  KJV

    That is the exact and most fundamental reason why it is a terrible and misleading thing for these new-age churches nowadays to say that "All religions lead to the same God," and that "there are many different paths to God."  These egalitarian and ecumenical churches are telling untruths, wittingly or unwittingly; and thereby endangering the souls of the unsaved who might have search Christianity deeper had they been told boldly, plainly, and unapologetically that without Jesus Christ no man shall see paradise.  For, "...all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Rom 3:23), and "...the wages of sin is death" (Rom 6:23).

2 Corinthians 5:17-21
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath [through Jesus Christ] committed unto us the word of reconciliation [forgiveness] .
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he [God] hath made him [Jesus] to be sin [the sin-punishment] for us [Christians], [Jesus] who knew [committed] no sin; that we [Christians] might be made the righteousness [forgiven-blamelessness] of God in [through] him [Christ Jesus].  KJV

    Christ also became the Passover.

1 Corinthians 5:7
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:  KJV 

    Also, through Christ Jesus the Gentiles (non-Israelites) could also be adopted into the eternal covenant that was reserved for Israel.  That is why the New Testament Scripture says:

  Also, regarding this above Scripture, since Jesus Christ, circumcision is no longer of the "male member," but symbolically of the heart—thus opening the doors to self-determination for women in salvation matters.  Before Christ, the women were saved/lost by their husband's (or before marriage, by her father's) house.  A woman could never enter the Holy place in the Temple, and she could not offer sin-offerings to God for herself or her family.  The man did all that, and it was his place, not hers.  Likewise, a "common man" could never enter the Holy of Holies (the innermost room of the Temple which contained the Ark of the Covenant and the very presence of God), lest he died!  Not even the priests could enter this Holy of Holies inner sanctum of the Temple; but only the high priest could enter therein, and only once per year at that—lest he died! 

    This is no longer the case. 

    Another "thing" that changed with Christ (and which many churches might not want you to know, is that since Jesus Christ we can all have access to God directly.  Before Christ, and evidenced by the rending 0tearing-down) of the curtain in the Temple's Holy of Holies at Christ's precise moment of death, is that now no longer do we need a priest to petition God for us, we no longer need a priest to deliver our (sin) offerings to God.  Now, since Christ, all of us whom simply believe upon Jesus Christ may speak directly to God one-on-one.  This was not always so.  The Catholic Church corrupts this in two ways; 1). they have you pray to a priest for forgiveness, and; 2). they say that the priest takes your sin upon himself and then in turn gives it to God for forgiveness.  This second one is a most serious blasphemy; for, the Catholic priest presumes to place himself in Christ's roll.  And that, coupled with the Catholic's belief that Mother Mary (blessed indeed that she truly is) can intercede for their sins.  She is even called Mediatrix (female mediator) in the Catholic Catechism (teachings).

The Catechism of the Catholic Church
Source: Second Edition English Translation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church

#969 "This motherhood of Mary in the order of grace continues uninterruptedly from the consent which she loyally gave at the Annunciation and which she sustained without wavering beneath the cross, until the eternal fulfillment of all the elect. Taken up to heaven she did not lay aside this saving office but by her manifold intercession continues to bring us the gifts of eternal salvation. . . . Therefore the Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix." — Source link: http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/para/969.htm  (The highlighting is ours.)

    But what saith the Lord on this matter?—  "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Tim 2:5).  And: "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." (Act 4:12).

    And no one who denies Jesus Christ; and I don't care if it be Muslim, Jew, Hindu, Buddhist, etc., or Atheist, and no matter "how nice a person he/she may be," no matter that he even gives all his wealth to charity, plucks out his own eye to give to another, or is the most docile and helpful person on the planet Earth, has the Lord God.  Period.  Jesus Christ became man's (only) vehicle to God.  Through Jesus Christ and our belief upon Him we may boldly stand before God.  And all whom desire to be with God must come to God through His Son, Jesus the Christ—God-blessed forever.  That's why God had Jesus to be killed; and to say that there is another way to God other than through Jesus Christ, is to say that Christ died in vain—that it wasn't necessary—and that, while perhaps nice, it doesn't really matter.  God forbid!  And any Christian, no matter how well-meaning, most especially the clergy who cannot rightly feign ignorance, who says that Jesus Christ is not essential to a reconciling with God and eternal salvation, is in deep, grave, substantial, and eminent danger of the Judgment of God.  There are few crimes higher on the list than this one.

Hebrews 10:28-31
28 He that despised Moses' law [the Old Testament] died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant [the New Testament], wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people [Duet 32:35-36].
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.  KJV

    If you have done this, then repent immediately.  And don't do it again.

    In closing, two Scriptures that may help in understanding this would be: 

Question #4

Pax Judaica and the Mark of the Beast?

 

A reader writes:

Hi Nick,

Thanks for all the great new articles. It seems like
you are really helping a lot of people.

I saw this recent news article and after rereading the
last few chapters of Revelation started wondering
something.

The brain scan that can read people's intentions

Maybe "the beast" that billions will worship does not
appear as a human ruler, but rather is modern
technology. People all over the world seem to worship
and revere it with an almost mystical-like fervor.
Believing that it can turn us into gods.

Maybe what John was seeing was a future where the vast
majority of humans worshiped themselves and their
"creation". That would also explain how easily so many
Christians are and will be duped.

Just some idle thoughts.

[Xxxxx]

Answer:

Hello.  Interesting thoughts, and conceptually not that far from the reality on the ground as this generation shall live  it.  Let me explain:

    But first some groundwork must be laid: there is a very common misconception by good Christians that the Mark of the Beast is the mark of antichrist.  It is not, it is the Mark of the first beast, the geo-politico-religious system (variously referred to as the NWO, etc. by moderns) of antichrist that rises first in the first part of the Tribulation (Rev 13:1-10) before antichrist arrives in the second part; and it (this first beast) is ultimately controlled by satan (as the antichrist; i.e., the "another beast" of Rev 13:11) first from his place of incarceration in Heaven (Jude 9, Rev 12:7), who then is introduced to the world in the second part of the Tribulation (Rev 13:11-16).

    I will be going into great depth on this in my in-progress and upcoming book titled, "The Coming Storm Called The Great Tribulation" (if I can be blessed with the time and resources to ever complete that monumental project—it must not be rushed, you only get one chance to do it right—I know that I only get one shot.  And due to the controversial subject matter [especially in the second half] and the very nature of the book itself, and the almighty power [on earth] of the great enemies of God and Christ that it defies, my very first book must be my magnum opus.  That's just the way that it is; and I would rather not write it than to write it poorly.  I began the project on December 16, 2004.  Will I succeed?  God knows).  However, it is needful to cover this subject somewhat here, at least in a cursory fashion, so as to progress through this Q & A together, reader and writer being "on the same page."
 

The Mark of Which Beast? The Two Beasts of Revelation Chapter
Thirteen (i.e., The Great Tribulation/Jacob's Trouble)

Revelation 13:11-18
11 And I beheld another beast [antichrist/satan (AC)] coming up out of the earth; and he [note that throughout this Scripture (and the whole New Testament) the Greek word for "he," "him," and "it" (and even "her) are one in the same: Autos (Greek #846), so that the use of "his" or "he" in this English translation of the Bible does not exclude using "it" or "its" when referring to the NWO, which is a global system] had two horns like a lamb, and he [AC] spake as a dragon.
12 And he [AC] exerciseth all the power of the first beast [the New World Order (NWO)] before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast [NWO], whose deadly wound was healed [in Rev 13:3].
13 And he [AC] doeth great wonders, so that he [AC] maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And [AC] deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he [AC] had power to do in the sight of the beast [NWO]; [AC] saying to them that dwell on the earth [phraseology indicating AC isn't on Earth when uttering it], that they should make an image to the beast [NWO], which had the wound by a sword, and did live [in Rev 13:3].
15 And he [AC] had power to give life unto the image of the beast [NWO], that the image of the beast [NWO] should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast [NWO] should be killed.
16 And he [AC] causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast [NWO], or the number of his [NWO] name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast [NWO]: for it is the number of a man [the Greek here means "a man," "human being," (even species) as opposed to a specific Man (no article)]; and his [NWO] number is Six hundred threescore and six.  KJV

    So then, knowing that the Mark is of the first beast and not the second, that is to say, of the world politico-religious system of antichrist, and not of antichrist (satan) himself; what then is this Mark of the Beast?  The Bible is mute on just what exactly is involved in taking this Mark of the Beast or even what it is, or how it looks if it can be seen, etc.  And although many a Bible expositor has tried to decipher it, any guess of man is just that, a guess.  Albeit some are educated guesses, and some are just a retelling of the old traditions of man assigned to this mystery.

    I feel that for whatever this Mark of the Beast may be (we shall know it when we see it), it will along with whatever identifier it has, will also entail an oath of sorts.  A solemn oath that cannot be faked, which shall be in effect a "pledge of allegiance" to the new world, or new world religion.  History does not leave us destitute of any types for this, for all religious conversions include a sworn spoken oath.  One simply cannot change religions, or adopt one where there was not one at the first, without making a verbal declaration of the intent of the heart of the proselyte (the person converting/adopting).  In the Holy Bible Jesus spoke on this:

Matthew 23:15
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.  KJV

    A proselyte can either good or bad, depending on what religion he is gaining admission into.  Even my namesake (Nicholas) was a proselyte, be he was a convert (proselyte) to Christianity.  The proselytes in the above Scripture were converts to Pharisaism (the forerunner of modern Judaism today).  The Noahides (also spelled Noachide) that we shall see prior to and especially during the Tribulation (there are already some even today as the Noahide movement builds steam) shall be twofold the children of hell* that the full-blown religious-Judaics are.

Acts 6:3-5
3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:  KJV

* Note: the Noahides shall be twofold (twice as bad) the children of hell (death, in this case—eternal death.  And every preacher that is moving so-called Christians into co-fellowship with Judaists has spiritual blood on his hands and shall join them at Judgment Day in the Lake of Fire, saving for a direct intervention from God, should He so choose) because they must renounce Jesus Christ to become a Noahide, as the first of the Seven Noahide Laws is the prohibition of "idolatry," which the Jews count Christianity to be.  But it is not only seven yokes that the International Judaics intend on placing upon the people of the world for their god satan (antichrist), they have many times more commandments to yoke them with.  Observe below from some literature of just one of their many organs.

Welcome to the Great Tribulation under satan's servants:
[Emphasis and bracketed commentary ours—WBSG.]

QUOTE:
"G-d gave Noah and all his descendants (B'nei Noach or "children of Noah") seven commandments to obey. These Seven Universal Laws (also known as the "Seven Noahide Laws") were reaffirmed with Moses and the Jewish people at Mt. Sinai, so that observance of these laws should now be done according to the Oral Torah [i.e., Talmud] (the revelation at Sinai [Jewish traditions-of-man  (folklore, myth) state that on Mt. Sinai, when God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, He also gave him secret instructions and laws, and that Moses passed these secrets down orally from generation to generation; hence called  "the oral Torah"—while the Old Testament of the Bible was committed to writing starting at circa 1490 b.c.; hence called "the written Torah"—until these secrets were codified in the Jewish Babylonian Talmud during the years between circa 500 b.c. and a.d. 500, and which we have extant (with us) today.  The Jews call these two sets of contradictory laws: (1). the oral Torah (Talmud), and (2). the written Torah (Old Testament).  And in the writings of the rabbis they state over and over again that if these two sets of Laws (Torahs) contradict each other, then the Talmud (the "oral Torah") is to take the higher authority over the Bible (the Old Testament "written Torah").  Talk about adding to God's word!  Further commentary on this matter is superfluous (above that which is necessary to prove a point)]). These seven commandments (mitzvos) are not arbitrary laws [i.e., they must be followed], but rather G-d's plan for mankind. (To the Jewish people G-d gave the entire Torah {teaching} [i.e., the Talmud, not the Old Testament alone] as their Law. They [the Jews] therefore have a special responsibility—with special commandments—to be the priesthood of the world, a "light unto the nations.")

Non-Jews [Goyim—human cattle] who (1) reject all idolatrous ideas [Christianity & Jesus Christ] and accept the kingship of the One G-d [don't be deceived by this noble lie—the gods of the Talmud and Jewish Kabbala are the demons called En Sof, Metatron, and a host of other lesser gods/angels (demons).  The author of this line is referring to the god of 2nd Thes 2:4 (antichrist).  Talmudic Judaism is not a monotheistic (one God) religion as claimed.  Which is the real reason why the rabbis write God as G-d, and call their god "Hashem" (i.e., literally, "The Name").  Unbeknownst even to most "Jews," the god of Talmudic Judaism is satan.  Is that any wonder, seeing as modern Judaism descends from the religion of the Pharisees which had Jesus Christ crucified by pagan Roman hands?], (2) accept the priesthood of the Jewish people as the guardians and teachers of Torah [i.e., the one-world religion of the first beast of Rev 13.  The Jewish rabbis shall be satan's (antichrist's) high priests during the Tribulation], and (3) commit to [under threat of death, we learn later (but not mentioned here)] following the Seven Noahide Laws as revealed in the Oral Torah [i.e., Talmud] from Mt. Sinai are "Hasidic Gentiles" or "Noahides." The term "Hasidic Gentile" is derived from a classic commentary by the Rambam, Rav Moshe ben Maimon (Maimonides), in The Laws of Kings 8:11:

"Anyone who accepts upon himself the fulfillment of these Seven Mitzvos {commandments} and is precise in their observance is considered one of the hasidei umos ha'olam {"Hasidim of the nations of the world"} and will merit a share in the World to Come." [i.e., shall be allowed to live during the Tribulation—i.e., the "kingdom of the Jews" spoken of in their various writings]

The Seven Noahide Laws actually encompass numerous details and applications that are not explained here (by one opinion, 66 laws, [nice number, huh?] but could comprise hundreds of laws, each with specific applications). One should also keep in mind that these laws are only the minimal basis for a Hasidic gentile's service to G-d [antichrist], since there are many Jewish mitzvos that non-Jews are encouraged to adopt to accomplish more, thereby refining oneself and the Creation as a whole." — Source: "The Seven Noahide Laws" JAHG-USA (Jews and Hasidic Gentiles- United To Save America). [Emphasis and bracketed commentary ours—WBSG.]

    Shall we read more of what they have in store for us?  I will try (but fail) to supply the below article without commentary (though I will highlight a bit); for, if the reader can't see the Tribulation in the below, then I suspect that he/she will never see the Tribulation anywhere (until it lands quite absolutely right down upon their heads).

    In the below you shall witness a complete annulment and reversal of all that Jesus Christ and the Apostles taught for our Lord God in His New Testament.  This is what Billy Graham, John Hagee, Franklin Graham, Pat Robertson, John Hagee, Jerry Falwell and all the other mainstream high-profile Christian Zionist mega-preachers are leading "us" to.  The International Judaics long ago infiltrated the Catholic Church with members of their the own number (crypto-Jews), then after the split, called The Great Reformation, they proceeded to infiltrate the Protestant branches of Christianity with even greater success.  "Protestant branches" of Christianity's preachers like the above Christian Zionists, and most all Catholic popes are in great danger of sharing the portion in the Judgment.  Please understand that it is not my right to judge souls—but the Bible does speak of what happens to those who do such as these do, and we are allowed to teach from that as a warning to other would-be's.

    These so-called Christian preachers are among the numbers of those which the Bible foretold would betray the faith and the faithful.  Is it any wonder then that we see them at the top of the heap, in the prominent places in most all the
