I AM NOT A JEW

Sorry! My deepest apologies to Judaizers, Legalists and Hebrew Roots Devotees everywhere…

  • I am not a Jew.
  • I am a spiritual child of Abraham.
  • I am not under the Law.
  • I was never under the Law.
  • I do not live as a Jew.
  • I do not worship as a Jew.
  • I do not eat as a Jew.

Paul called down Peter, publicly, for trying to make gentiles live like Jews…

Galatians 2:14 …I told Cephas in front of everyone, “If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel Gentiles to live like Jews?”

  • I appreciate the Jewish feasts.
  • I learn from the Jewish feasts.
  • There are Christian truths that cannot be understood apart from the Jewish festivals.
  • I appreciate Jews and Judaism.
  • I understand that Jesus was a Jew.
  • I am not a Jew.
  • I am a gentile.

Paul made a distinction between Jewish believers and Gentile believers. Paul, by his own testimony, lived like a Jew, when he was among Jews but as a gentile when he was with gentiles.

1 Corinthians 9: 20 To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win Jews; to those under the law, like one under the law—though I myself am not under the law—to win those under the law. 21 To those who are without that law, like one without the law—not being without God’s law but within Christ’s law—to win those without the law. 22 To the weak I became weak, in order to win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by every possible means save some.

I am not a Catholic. I do not follow Catholic traditions.

  • On the other hand, the church in Acts met on the first day of the week. I follow that tradition.
  • Protestant, Evangelical Churches have celebrated the Birth of Christ on Christmas Day for more than 500 years. I respect that.
  • I understand that Jesus was crucified on Passover.
  • I know why Jesus was crucified at Passover. I respect that.
  • My church has celebrated the Resurrection on Easter Sunday from the beginning. I respect that.

I know all about Ishtar and rabbits that lay eggs. I will not worship Ishtar on Easter Sunday. I will worship Jesus Christ and remember his death, burial and resurrection.

Ishtar be damned… Who stole that day and gave it to her anyway?

  • You may dedicate Easter Sunday to Ishtar if you like. That is your choice.
  • You may spend the day hiding under the couch, trembling in fear of a rabbit that lays eggs. That is your choice.
  • By refusing to worship Christ on Easter, Christians cede the day to Ishtar, confessing that she alone has a right to that day.
  • As for me and my house, we will spend the day worshiping Jesus Christ and remembering how he died to set us free from Ishtarian Demons… That is my choice.

Romans 14: 4 Who are you to criticize another’s household slave? Before his own Lord he stands or falls. And he will stand. For the Lord is able to make him stand.

  • I am not a Jew.
  • I am not a Catholic.
  • I am a gentile.
  • I am a slave of Jesus Christ.

Sorry! My deepest apologies to Judaizers, Legalists and Hebrew Roots Devotees everywhere…

THE UNITED STATES IS DEAD

“Every indication is that Babylon will rule the world on the day of her demise. That being so, I would expect a strongman, like Trump, to cow his enemies and bring, at least for a short time, unmeasured prosperity to the homeland.”

Isaiah 47:5 Daughter Chaldea, sit in silence and go into darkness. For you will no longer be called mistress of kingdoms.

The United States is dead. We are doomed to die in a single hour. Scripture indicates that our destruction will be massive and permanent. Other nations will stand off in fear, afraid to even set foot on our shores… The radiation will be so intense that they will treat us as one big Chernobyl… Perhaps someone will start limited tours of the destruction for brave adventurers… The real question is not if, but when?

No other Nation on earth fits the description of the biblical, end times Babylon. If you do not understand that, there are several good books that lay out the case for America as Babylon or you could just pull out your Bible, open to the descriptions of the end times Babylon and check, with a highlighter or a pencil, every time one of the specific descriptions matches the United States and could not possibly apply to any other nation on earth… You can convince yourself in a few minutes. Babylon is destroyed in a single hour, and that without remedy.

Donald Trump has grabbed onto what could very well be a False Flag event and he is using it to reverse his campaign stance and continue to destabilize the Middle East. At the same time, he is, as Russia has made clear, just one step away from war. At the same time, he is messing with North Korea, aware that any attack on that country would be seen as an attack on China, bringing massive retribution. He is even threatening to place nuclear weapons in South Korea… a definite declaration of war against both North Korea and China.

If one looks at it from that point of view, our destruction could be sooner, rather than later. I, personally, do not think that this is going to work out badly at this time… I could be wrong. We have a military presence in three fourths of the nations of the world. Our military bases surround both Russia and China. Whatever they have told you, our military has no equal and the largest nations in the world have reason to fear and respect us. Remember how Ronald Reagan cowed the world? I believe that Donald Trump is beginning to have the same effect.

Some have identified Donald Trump as the Antichrist and I have seen much evidence that would point in that direction. Others have picked out Jared Kushner, with good reason. I remember when it was first Bush and then Obama who held that seat. I am not going to call names but I will say that both Trump and Kushner have come at a prophetic moment and that they are working strongly towards the Kingdom of the Beast, commonly called the New World Order.

If Trump is the strong man I believe him to be, he is going to continue to win battles at home and abroad. Every indication is that Babylon will rule the world on the day of her demise. That being so, I would expect a strongman, like Trump, to cow his enemies and bring, at least for a short time, unmeasured prosperity to the homeland. I would not be surprised to see forces within North Korea, emboldened by Trump, take out their leader and push for unification with the south. I would expect the war between the US and Russia to continue as a proxy war where no Americans and no Russians die, only Syrians. That is obviously the plan of the Luciferian Elite and I expect it will continue until Damascus is a heap of ruins and oil wells protrude where children used to play.

Babylon must fall before the Kingdom of the Beast can arise. It is Babylon, however, that must lay the groundwork for the New World Order. We are the only power on earth capable of doing that and we will stand until our work is complete. Scripture indicates that our death will be sudden and unexpected. The Luciferians teach that it is out of the ashes of the United States that the New World Order will rise, like a phoenix. We were the predecessor and the test case for the New World Order. I have written on that in other blog entries. The goal of Lucifer is to undo the damage done when God divided the world into tongues and tribes and nations at Babel. This is E Pluribus Unum, Out of Many, One. This is the Masonic Ordo Ab Chao, Order out of Chaos. This is “Give me your poor and huddled masses…” written on our National Goddess… These things were sold to the Church in America as Christian ideals, by some very slick and demonic salesmen… Undoing what God has done may sound noble, if phrased right by a slick salesman, but it is never a good idea. The goal of the New World Order, is to destroy the United States, reduce the world population by eighty percent and establish a United States type government that covers and controls the whole world.

The difference now is that while the vast majority of Americans were Christian in 1776 and the idea had to be couched in pseudo-Christian language, the majority of the world, today, is pagan and no attempt is being made to call it Christian… simply religious and good in the sense of Pope Francis and Rick Warren…

The leaders of the New World Order are openly Luciferian. There is the story of the phoenix. The phoenix (not the eagle, as you were told) is the bird on the Great Seal of the United States. Look at it… that is no eagle! The phoenix, the pagan priests would have us believe, is a special bird. When the phoenix is about to give birth, it crashes and burns in smoke and flames… It is out of the smoke and flames of the burning body of the dead mother that the new, larger and improved, bird rises… The phoenix cannot be born until its mother crashes and burns. Likewise, the New World Order cannot be born until the United States of America burns.

We are on a tight schedule. The clock started with the birth of Israel in 1948. Perhaps it did not start until 1967 when Jerusalem was conquered… Whenever, it has started and Jesus told us that that generation would not pass away before all these things were accomplished… Anyway you count that, we are fast running out of time. The New World Order will last, at most, seven years, although the Bible gives us hope that God may cut that short. The Kingdom of the Antichrist will begin on the day America burns.

So, what do I expect now? I would think that Donald Trump would see the greatest success that any President in history has ever seen. I would expect America to become more powerful and dominant than it has ever been. I would expect that he, or perhaps the President who follows him, will make a huge mistake and anger the world. I would expect nukes to rain out of the sky, from coast to coast. Close Ground explosions taking out every major city, while EMPs take out the national power grid, throwing survivors into darkness and silence. I expect it to be over in a single hour.

Revelation 18: 9 The kings of the earth who have committed sexual immorality and lived luxuriously with her will weep and mourn over her when they see the smoke of her burning. 10 They will stand far off in fear of her torment, saying:

Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the mighty city! For in a single hour your judgment has come.

Do you know Jesus? You may not be able to leave the United States. You may live or you may die, depending on where you are. If you die, you go to Heaven if you are saved, or Hell if you are lost. If you live, you must deal with a world without power or machinery and you must deal, to one degree or another, with radiation… Happy are those who die in the initial attack… If you live, preach Jesus!

It is time to get serious. If you know Jesus, Look up! Your salvation is nearer than ever before! If you would reject Jesus, look out, Hell rises up to meet you…

TO CHOOSE BLINDNESS

This Blog has been censured by the International Association of Evangelical Ostriches.

Jesus was wont to say, “Let those who have eyes to see, see” and “Let those who have ears to hear, hear.” I understand the blindness of the lost, “Unless you are Born Again, you cannot see the Kingdom of God.” Pardon me if I ignore the lost in this article. My subject concerns those Born Again, children of the Living God, who choose blindness over sight and deafness over hearing, at the most critical point in the history of the world.

“I don’t want to talk about that. I am going to preach the Gospel to the lost, nothing else matters.” Says a Pastor as he lowers his head, excuses himself and walks away. That statement might be valid, except that his sermon of the morning had been about tithing, with a strong call to support the building program. His congregation is dwindling, offerings are down, a third of the seats in the building are empty but this Pastor sees his salvation in a new sanctuary. Talk about current events, the imminent collapse of the nation and the rise of the New World Order are things he chooses not to look at, listen to, or think about. To preach on such things would be ecclesiastical suicide.

We used to joke about Evangelists and their numbers. If my pastor was going to stretch the truth for an illustration, he would begin by prefacing his statement with the phrase, “Evangelastically speaking…”, combining Evangelistic and Elastic, in a single word. This was so because success or failure in ministry was and is measured in numbers. The pastor with the biggest church, largest congregation, most revenue, is the winner. We judge God’s Church by Babylonian standards and wonder where we failed.

Jesus gathered a congregation that numbered more than five thousand, preached a single sermon and ended up with twelve, and one of those was a traitor. That is success! If you can find eleven people who will listen to the truth and follow you anyway, you are witnessing great things. Babylon would have you judging by the numbers. Jesus would have you make disciples.

The Gospel is central but the Gospel as presented in Scripture, not the bastardized, Americanized, Babylonian gospel. The Gospel in Scripture requires repentance, makes disciples and is judged by observing the quality of the crop. The Babylonian Gospel centers on how many people you can get to walk down an aisle, shake the preacher’s hand and repeat the “Sinner’s Prayer.”

If you are making disciples, you will share the whole truth with them and you will guide and direct them to the road that leaves Babylon. You will lead your little flock into the Kingdom of God and they will dwell there. You will teach them what Jesus said to watch for and help them to see. You will encourage them to seek wisdom and understanding. You will not hide the truth. You will preach the truth, even when you know that a Disciple or two may reject the truth and leave the fold as a result.

Church Growth Seminars lead to Spiritual Death. Eleven disciples and a traitor is better than a church of five thousand Hell-bound sinners.

Babylonian pastors, in Babylonian churches, will never talk about prophecy, current events, or the sins of America. They will carefully measure their sermons by the offering plate and the number of seats filled on Sunday morning. Truth that lowers revenue will be avoided at all costs. They will not listen to the truth and they most certainly will not preach it. The Fourth of July will be celebrated as a church holiday. Christmas trees and Easter Baskets will decorate the sanctuary in their season but no teaching will ever be given that would help the people understand current events and the immediate future in light of Biblical Prophecy… These Pastors will blindly lead a blinded congregation into Tribulation and the Great Deception without a clue… They have chosen to be blind and they have chosen to blind their congregations.

Preach the truth. Preach the whole truth. Pray that God will give you a dozen disciples. It is enough.

Revelation 18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven: Come out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or receive any of her plagues.

WHY WEEP FOR DAMASCUS?

Isaiah 17 An oracle against Damascus:

Look, Damascus is no longer a city.
It has become a ruined heap.
The cities of Aroer are forsaken;
they will be places for flocks.
They will lie down without fear.
The fortress disappears from Ephraim,
and a kingdom from Damascus.
The remnant of Aram will be
like the splendor of the Israelites.
This is the declaration of the Lord of Hosts.

The largest oilfield in the world, lies under Damascus and stretches south to the Golan Heights in Israel.

Damascus is the oldest, continually occupied, city in the world. Syria is Israel’s oldest and most dedicated enemy. The Old Testament is full of stories of the atrocities committed by Syria in her ancient struggle against Israel and the God of Israel. When we see the children suffering in Syria today, our hearts bleed. God, however, has a very long memory. God remembers all the Jewish children who have suffered over three thousand years, at the hands of the Syrian people. The destruction of Damascus and Israel’s oldest enemy, is a sign of the end. It is the Word of God, and it is fixed. Damascus will be left as a “ruined heap.”

The interesting thing is that this is a war with Syria and Russia on one side and Israel and the United States on the other side. This is a proxy war. It is not the first proxy war and it will probably not be the last. We hate the Russians and so we kill Syrians who side with Russia. Russia hates the United States and so Russia kills Syrians who side with us. It is, at the root, a fight between Russia and the U.S., but only Syrians die. Strange and unfair, if you see it only in the present tense; fair and just, seen in the light of 3,000 years’ worth of dead Jewish babies.

I Have my eyes open. Jesus said to watch. I am watching. I have seen too many people make fools of themselves by trying to project a detailed future based on biblical prophecy. When it happens, we see clearly that it is a fulfillment of prophecy. Predicting the future in more than general terms, has made idiots out of men far smarter than I. I will tell you that Damascus will be left uninhabitable, nothing more than a heap of ruins. I do not know when, nor do I know who will drop the last bomb. I do know that it will happen and that, in the eyes of Almighty God, it will be a just and righteous end for a nation committed, from its founding, to fight against Jehovah and to destroy God’s people.

We have financed, trained and armed every soldier on both sides of this conflict. The purpose, for all of this, is to destroy Syria and obtain the petroleum for the Luciferian Elite. We want both sides to die; that is our goal and that is Russia’s goal… We hope to gain from the conflict and to see Russia lose. Russia hopes to gain from the conflict and see us lose. Everybody wants to see the Syrians lose. In the end, it will be the Rothschilds and the Luciferian Elite who win and the world’s bankers will become very rich, whatever the end should bring.

There are no “Good Guys” here, with the exception of Israel, and God says that the destruction of Damascus will bring glory to Israel… That, you can believe!

YOUTUBE PROOFS

Let’s get one thing straight, YouTube videos never prove anything. Not a day goes by that someone on Facebook, or using messenger, does not send me a YouTube video with the word proof in the title and a comment telling me that “This video will prove…”

I have received videos that “prove” that:

  • The earth is flat,
  • The earth is round,
  • We never went to the moon,
  • We did go to the moon,
  • Antichrist will be an American,
  • Antichrist is from Turkey,
  • Antichrist will be a Pope from Rome,
  • Antichrist will come from Saudi Arabia,
  • The Beast will rule a ten nation European Federation,
  • The New World Order has already been divided into 10 districts by the UN,
  • Obama is the Antichrist,
  • Trump is the Antichrist,
  • Jared Kushner is the Antichrist,
  • Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is the Antichrist,
  • The Roman Catholic Church is the Kingdom of the Beast,
  • Antichrist will be Muslim.
  • Antichrist will be Catholic,
  • Antichrist will be a demon posing as an alien.
  • The Tribulation will start in 2015,
  • The Tribulation will start in 2016,
  • The Tribulation will start in 2017,
  • The Tribulation will start in 2022,
  • Paul was not an Apostle and his letters are not Scripture,
  • You cannot be saved unless you address God in Hebrew,
  • You cannot be saved if you go to church on Sunday,

All of these things, and a hundred more, are absolutely proven on YouTube videos… at least according to the titles.

Get Real!

CAUGHT UP TO DISTRACTION

I found myself caught up in the morning news today. I caught my emotions flaring as something in me rose up in defense of President Trump. And then, I laughed.

I know that in Babylon, the show government does not rule. I know that all this is a well scripted Soap Opera… a “Made for Television” production. Still, just as I can get caught up in the emotions of any well-made move, I can get caught up with the Illuminati Television Production, called “GOVERNMENT”.

What bothers me is that, if I, knowing all that I know, can get caught up, what chance does the average Christian have of seeing through the charade? No one in church is educating them on these things. Chances are that their Pastors are as ignorant, or more so, than they. I would venture to guess that the majority of Christian Pastors in America believe everything they see on CNN.

I want to take the opportunity to tell you or remind you of the truth today; neither Trump nor the White House, nor the Congress rule in America. More binding decisions are made at the George Washington Lodge in Washington DC than will ever be made in Congress. It is the Rothschilds, and the Luciferian Elite who make phone calls, on behalf of Lucifer, and run the Government.

The very public fight you watch on your television is a distraction, leading to a crisis. Soon the crisis will threaten the peace and security of every American. When we are all duly frightened, they will offer us a solution… we will have to give up a few more freedoms, of course, but in return, government will guarantee our peace and security. This is the Hegelian Dialectic, and the Hegelian Dialectic was in full force this morning on NBC.

2 Corinthians 2:11 I have done this so that we may not be taken advantage of by Satan. For we are not ignorant of his schemes.

Unfortunately, most of the Pastors and churches in America are totally and completely unaware of Satan’s schemes…

Please! Today, right now, stop and think. Open your eyes. Your Pastor may take his church to Hell, but you do not have to go along for the ride.

Facebook, YouTube and Heresy

Heresy, almost without exception, is truth, taken to a ridiculous, unbiblical and ungodly extreme.

The Bible is simple. The Gospel is straightforward. YouTube and Facebook are tailor made for heretics, making experts out of the ignorant. Anybody, with any idea, can become a Facebook Pundit or a YouTube Guru. It would seem that the more outlandish the idea, the faster one can gain a following.

People with degrees in Dental Technology are now Flat-Earth Experts, having used a Dental X Ray machine to prove that there is no curvature to the earth’s surface. People whose sole qualification is three years in the Church Nursery are now Theologians, certain that a few flowery lines of Biblical Poetry should force Christians everywhere to abandon the preaching of the Gospel and devote their lives to proving the earth to be flat.

At the same time, others are twisting Scripture, writing long essays about why Paul was not an Apostle and his letters are not Scripture. They do this because they want us to believe that our salvation depends on our ability to keep the Law of Moses or perhaps to pronounce the Name of God in good Hebrew with a South Georgia accent. Paul disagrees and them edumacated Christian preachers just won’t stop quoting Paul.

We have a new group trying to hijack my Facebook page and preach their “new doctrine” in comments under my posts. They do not yet know that their “New Doctrine” was around so long ago that Paul himself was forced to fight them. These brilliant Facebook Pundits, armed with videos by YouTube Gurus, believe that they have reached a state of sinless perfection, while still in the body. This is ancient Gnosticism. “In my spirit I am sinless and what my body does does not count. I can live with my twelve year old son in a same sex relationship and still be sinless before God. My soul is not sinning, just my body.” John says that if we say we have no sin, we make God a liar and the truth is not in us… That being true, these theological wonders would have us believe that because we admit that we sin and have need of forgiveness, we are somehow defective.

The “Sinless Perfection” people have broken off from the slightly older heresy called Hyper-Grace. Hyper-Grace uses the Grace of God as an excuse to sin. In its milder forms, it accepts sinful lifestyles as normal and unavoidable for Christians. You were born Gay so you might as well bring your same-sex lover to church and hold hands while you praise God. In its most offensive stage, Hyper-Grace insists that the Grace of God and the Blood of Jesus have saved all mankind and 100% of everybody is going to end up in Heaven, whether they want to be there or not. Christians, forgiven, washed in the Blood, made clean and Born Again at the Cross, love Jesus.  Hyper-Grace believers, use Jesus. Sin hurts God. Sin nailed Jesus to the cross. Sin bothers and hurts Christians. Sin is a plaything for the Hyper-Grace people… They have no love for God… no relationship with Jesus. What hurts God, what nailed Jesus to the cross is of no consequence to them… they could care less… To live in sin for a lifetime and gain Heaven when you die… what a deal!

The Gospel is this: Jesus died to save sinners, of whom I am chief. We are free from the Law. We are saved by Grace, through faith in the Son of God. Having been saved, we are filled with the Spirit of God. We enter into an intimate, husband – wife type relationship with Jesus Christ. We take up our cross, die to ourselves daily, and follow him. Because we love him, we obey him and do what pleases him. We do not have to sin but we do sin. When we sin, the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin. We sorrow and grieve because we have hurt the God we love. We confess our sin and He is faithful and just to forgive us our sin and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

John, in his first Epistle, finds a wonderful balance:

1 John 1:Now this is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light, and there is absolutely no darkness in Him. If we say, “We have fellowship with Him,” yet we walk in darkness, we are lying and are not practicing the truth. But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say, “We have no sin,” we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say, “We don’t have any sin,” we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

Paul also finds balance:

Romans 6:15 What then? Should we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Absolutely not! 16 Don’t you know that if you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of that one you obey—either of sin leading to death or of obedience leading to righteousness? 17 But thank God that, although you used to be slaves of sin, you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching you were transferred to, 18 and having been liberated from sin, you became enslaved to righteousness.

Heresy, almost without exception, is truth, taken to a ridiculous, unbiblical and ungodly extreme. From his first question, “Hath God said…?” Satan has sought to twist Scripture, bending the very Word of God, to lead men and women astray. Scripture is balanced. Heresy is lopsided. Scripture is Christocentric. Heresy is always Egocentric. Stick with Doctrine that glorifies God. Stick with doctrine that centers on Christ. Stick with doctrine that finds a balance… Run from the extremes of the heretics.

David…

FLAT EARTH EISEGESIS

Let us first, speak to “Eisegesis.” Eisegesis, simply enough, is using the Bible to prove what you already believe or what you want to believe.

Let us start with an extremely exaggerated example:

Let us say that I am a devoted, loving and Christian parent. My beloved child, seemingly out of nowhere, commits suicide. I do not want to believe that my child would go to Hell. I simply must believe that suicide is good and that God approves. I go to my Bible and find that at least seven people in the Bible killed themselves. More than that, among them were Prophets, Kings and Disciples… I carefully compile my list:

  1. [Abimelech] called hastily unto the young man his armour-bearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A woman slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died (Judges 9:54).
  1. And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed with all his might; and the house fell…upon all the people that were therein (Judges 16:30).
  1. Saul took a sword and fell on it (1 Sam. 31:4).
  1. When [Saul’s] armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise upon his sword, and died (1 Sam 31:5).
  1. When Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he…got him home to his house, to his city, and put his house in order, and hanged himself, and died (2 Sam. 17:23).
  1. It came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the palace of the king’s house, and burnt the king’s house over him with fire, and died (1 Kings 16:18).
  1. [Judas] cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself (Matt. 27:5).

I am now certain that God approves of suicide. My beloved child is secure in God…. And, while I am still hurting, I decide that God would certainly want me to commit suicide so that I may be with my child…

That is eisegesis!

Let us go on to other things:

Let us say that, in my mind, I see God as a kindly Father. I read a verse that says that I can never be plucked from his hand. I like that and I start a Bible Study. While there are many verses on the subject, they are just about evenly divided between those that support Once Saved, Always Saved and those that speak to fear, trembling, being plucked from the vine and falling from grace.

I compile my lists… 20 verses supporting Eternal Security and 20 verses that speak to falling from Grace.

  • God is Good! I know that and so all of the verses that make God look like a good guy must be literal… Clearly, these verses mean what they say.
  • On the other hand, all of those verses that make God look like a bad guy, must be misquotes, mistranslations or simply false…
  • We all know, after all, that God, is a good guy!

Based on what I now “know,” I write a book and form a new denomination, built on the firm knowledge that, no matter what those mean and ugly verses might say, God would never cast away one of his children!

But what if I saw God as a mean and ugly judge? I would certainly take those same verses and declare that all of the verses that supported my view of God as a stern and awful Judge, were to be taken literally, while all of those verses that spoke of a kind and fatherly God who would show grace and mercy on his children, cannot possibly mean what they say…

Based on what I now “know,” I would certainly write a book and start a new denomination fixed on terror and the firm belief that the slightest infraction of the Law will bring down judgment, death and Hell.

FLAT EARTH

Please note: There is not one single verse, in all of Scripture, that informs us of the shape of the earth… Not even one. Not one verse says that it is flat. Not one verse says that it is a globe… Zero, Zilch, Nada.

On Flat Earth, I must start with an idea, a thought or a belief that comes from a source outside of Scripture… A book, a Facebook Post, a YouTube video or, in the beginning at least, the fertile imagination of one individual. Somehow, I come to believe that the earth must be flat. (For the vast majority of Modern “Flatearthers,” it came through Facebook or YouTube.)

Based on my belief that the earth must be flat, I follow the YouTube Guru or the Facebook Wizard to the Scriptures. There, he / she points out a handful of idioms, allegories and a little poetic language that, while none of it says the earth is flat, might seem to support the theory I so desperately want to believe. The fact that nearby verses speak to the skin on Job’s teeth and the pillars on which the foundations of the earth are firmly fixed be damned… Those things are obviously allegory but anything that backs up what I want to believe must, absolutely must be taken literally!

Now, armed with less than six passages which, while they do not say that the earth is flat, do seem to support what I want to believe, I make a video, go on Facebook, as an On-fire Evangelist for the Flat Earth Gospel! I am so very proud of my new found knowledge and this New Doctrine, that I leave Jesus in order to preach Flat Earth… After all, what is salvation if you can believe something that nobody else knows about yet?

And then come the Party-Poopers… They challenge your science and your theology, making you look like an idiot. If you have an Associate’s Degree in Dental Technology, certainly you can prove the scientists of the world wrong! If that doesn’t work, you can simply declare that all science is evil and scientists are of the Devil… That fixes it!

This is where Flatearthers divide into Clergy and Laity…

  • If you are a Dental Tech, a File Clerk at a College or some other kind of “Expert”, you become Clergy…
  • You write your own stuff,
  • you make your own YouTube channel and
  • start your own page on Facebook…

If no one follows you, not to worry:

  • you find the page of a non Flatearther and begin to preach your newfound religion in comments under their posts…

PASSED DUE FOR THE “WIDOW MAKER”

“Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow if death, I will fear no evil”

“I am amazed that he is still alive!” Such were the words of the surgeon who had just catheterized my heart. I don’t remember that. I was awake and responding but too drugged up to remember later. They are words that my wife will never forget.

What followed was a trip to my third hospital in as many days, surgery that would stop my heart for over an hour, routing my blood through a Heart-Lung machine instead, and being sent home to recover at the end of a ten-day vacation I would wish on no one, ever.

Health-Park Medical Center is “State of the Art.” It looks like a five-star hotel with a lobby including a four-story atrium grander than that of any Naples Hotel. The food is good, the Doctors, nurses and staff, highly trained, skilled, and kind beyond imagination. People travel here, from around the world, to combine “Elective Surgery” with a tropical vacation… That I had the best care available, and that in a beautiful place, does not mean that I would recommend “Dying to Get There.”

The three main arteries to my heart had completely occluded. Over a period of years, my body had grown its own bypasses… new arteries to bypass the clogged ones that no one could find… damage invisible to EKGs and stress tests…. Presenting, in  cardiac distress, my first EKGs came back normal; only a stress test showed a possible “Small blockage of a small artery….” Machines lying, as they have for the more than ten years I have complained of shortness of breath and a racing heart. Three main arteries completely blocked and the machine showed a “Possible” small blockage of a minor artery.

Sent to a second hospital, they were to catheterize my heart, with the understanding that the blocked artery “might be too small to stent.” What an eyeopener to awake and find that, in fact, I was days or minutes from a fatal heart attack… Yet, I had known it to be true for many years. I had been faced with the negative results of a hundred tests and been sent home from emergency rooms, diagnosed with “Gastric Distress” more times than I can count… Never give up! It was, the hand of God that saved my life. It was God who opened the eyes of my surgeons to the distress of my heart.

Faced with the diagnosis of a ninety-plus percent blockage of the three main arteries of life, I received the standard tips to say no to surgery, read a book, change my diet and save my own life. Sorry, flat on your back with a prognosis of imminent, sure, and certain death, is not the time to “read a book and change your diet”

What did I learn from all this? That the Psalmist knew his God, and that the phrase, “Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow if death, I will fear no evil” is not simply the work of a dead poet but a present and living reality for the child of God… You really can face death with no fear and peace in your heart… Really!

CHRISTIANITY VERSUS AMERICANISM

Let us contrast, to start, two strong, foundational statements:

1. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
2. The person who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; the person who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And whoever doesn’t take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. Anyone finding his life will lose it, and anyone losing his life because of Me will find it.

When I was in High School, the State of Florida, mandated a course called, “Americanism Versus Communism.” In that class, we learned of wonderful American heroes like, Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and the like and about the terrible heroes of communism, the likes of Lenin, Stalin, Mao and Obama. We diligently studied the reasons that the American system of Government works and communism never will.

The course must have been written by the boys down at the Lodge… It was a winner.

What I would like to do, in this article, is to give you a different kind of course… a course that should be mandated by the Board of Education of the Kingdom of Heaven, for every Kingdom Citizen, living as a foreigner and an alien in the United States of America. A course in Christianity Vs. Americanism, or perhaps, we should call it, Kingdom Principles Vs. Americanism.

I am not saying that Americanism is not better for the people than communism. Please bear with me.

Let us contrast the two systems, the Kingdom of God and the United States of America. Most older American Christians have been taught, by their Pastors, as well as the school system, that the United States and the Kingdom of God are synonymous… If you are a Christian, you are a good American and you cannot be a good American unless you at least live like a Christian. Lets look at that.

Let us contrast, to start, two strong, foundational statements:

  1. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
  2. The person who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; the person who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And whoever doesn’t take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. Anyone finding his life will lose it, and anyone losing his life because of Me will find it.

Somehow, the wise men in the great American Seminaries, decided, and taught for more than two hundred years, that those two statements could be reconciled. You could believe that your Creator had given you a right to life but you could not be worthy of Jesus if you found your life and if you did not die to yourself and lose your life (and rights) for his sake.  So, your Creator Gave you a right to life and your God took it away. That will make you scratch your head.

The full statement in the Declaration of Independence is: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…” Please take the time to look up the doctrine of the Deists. This is a core and absolute belief in Deism, The Creator created, then abandoned the world, having established “Governments” to run everything…

Paul frequently speaks of himself as a slave to Jesus Christ but the Declaration of Independence says that your Creator has given you an “unalienable right” to Liberty. Scripture says that you must give up everything, deny yourself and follow Christ. The Declaration of Independence says that your Creator has given you an immutable, unchangeable, permanent and forever right to seek happiness. According to the wisdom of the American Church, there is no problem here. Perhaps you are smarter than the American Church?

The constant message in America and the message that got Donald Trump elected is that every American has a right to a good job, good pay, and all the “stuff” he could ever desire. Scripture says:

All who are under the yoke as slaves must regard their own masters to be worthy of all respect, so that God’s name and His teaching will not be blasphemed. Those who have believing masters should not be disrespectful to them because they are brothers, but should serve them better, since those who benefit from their service are believers and dearly loved.

False Doctrine and Human Greed

Teach and encourage these things. If anyone teaches other doctrine and does not agree with the sound teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ and with the teaching that promotes godliness, he is conceited, understanding nothing, but has a sick interest in disputes and arguments over words. From these come envy, quarreling, slander, evil suspicions, and constant disagreement among people whose minds are depraved and deprived of the truth, who imagine that godliness is a way to material gain. But godliness with contentment is a great gain.

For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.

But those who want to be rich fall into temptation, a trap, and many foolish and harmful desires, which plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and by craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains. (1 Timothy 6:1-10)

Try preaching that to your favorite Trump supporter…

Many, in the American Church, have woken up to the fact that those wonderful statements in the Declaration of Independence are, in reality, the doctrines of demons and the principles of Babylon. Unfortunately, most do not have a clue.

It was Satan who offered Jesus the riches of this world’s kingdoms, not Jesus who offered those things to his followers. Satan rebelled against God because he wanted to be free. The Devil’s sales pitch has always been to offer Freedom and riches and knowledge… Always… from the very beginning.

Let us go on to another major difference. God, in Genesis, separated the people. It was God who separated men by tribes and tongues and nations. This was, outside of the cross of Jesus Christ, the greatest blow ever dealt to Satan and the Kingdom of this world. God had said:

“If they have begun to do this as one people all having the same language, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let Us go down there and confuse their language so that they will not understand one another’s speech.”

So from there the Lord scattered them over the face of the whole earth, and they stopped building the city. Therefore its name is called Babel for there the Lord confused the language of the whole earth, and from there the Lord scattered them over the face of the whole earth. (Genesis 11)

Did you get that? “nothing they (fallen man under Lucifer) plan to do will be impossible for them!” That is why God separated people into groups. Satan wanted to defeat God and establish himself as the god of this world, forever. He still does. The United States was the “Guinea Pig” the trial… the Babylonian forerunner to the New World Order. What America has been, on a single continent, the New World Order / Kingdom of the Beast will be on a global scale. That is the Devil’s plan… having reunited the world, he will take on God at Armageddon and win, becoming the god of this world for all of eternity. That is his plan and he has just enough ego and pride to believe his own stuff…

What is the cry of America? “Give me your poor; your huddled masses…” The Masonic motto (and it predates the Masons) is “Ordo Ab Chao” or “Order out of Chaos.” What “chaos”? The Chaos created by God at Babylon. Look at the mottoes on your money…

  • “E Pluribus Unum” (Out of Many, One).
  • “Annuit cœptis” (He [?] has favored our undertakings)
  • “Novus ordo seclorum” (New World Order)
  • “IN GOD WE TRUST” (Placed next to the Egyptian pyramid and the eye of Osiris, a pagan god.)

“E Pluribus Unum”, speaks to undoing the divisions established, by God, at Babel.  “Annuit cœptis”, simply says that Lucifer has favored our undertakings.  “Novus Ordo Seclorum” has been officially translated as “New Order of the Ages.” That is, simply put, One World Government or the “New World Order.”  Placing the motto, “IN GOD WE TRUST” next to the symbols of a pagan god, gives us insight that the Masonic controlled, Evangelical Churches in America were determined that we would never see.

From Wikipedia: According to Richard S. Patterson and Richardson Dougall, Annuit coeptis (meaning “favor our undertakings”) and the other motto on the reverse of the Great Seal, Novus ordo seclorum (meaning “new order of the ages”) can both be traced to lines by the Roman poet Virgil. Annuit cœptis comes from the Aeneid, book IX, line 625, which reads, Iuppiter omnipotens, audacibus adnue coeptis. It is a prayer by Ascanius, the son of the hero of the story, Aeneas, which translates to, “Jupiter [Satan] Almighty, favour [my] bold undertakings”, just before slaying an enemy warrior, Remulus. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annuit_c%C5%93ptis)

PLEASE! Do your homework! Do not take my word for these things… LOOK IT UP!
