American Apostasy – End Times Prophecy Report

American Laodicea: The Spiritual Wasteland that is the American Churches

LAODICEA: The ruins of apostasy warned. — **LAODICEA:** The ruins of apostasy warned.

“And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.”
—Revelation 3:14-16

SUPREME COURT SAME-SEX MARRIAGE DECISION:

HOMOSEXUALITY IS ONE OF THE ONLY SINS AMERICANS CAN STILL RECOGNIZE

The spectacle of Americans–especially those who regularly warm the seats in apostate American churches–wailing and wring their hands over the recent Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage was filled with irony

That is because homosexuality is one of the last behaviors still recognized as sin by the apostate churches, which are full of idolatry, witchcraft, paganism, false gods, false spirits, other gospels and another Jesus.

The description Jesus gave to the church of Laodicea in Revelation 3 is revealing. It’s almost like He was talking directly to the American churches.

“Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:”
—Revelation 3:17

It’s the part about the church-goers not knowing they are “wretched and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.” that rings true in 2015 America.

Visit the churches–and this writer visits several different ones almost every week–and one finds many, many things. But one does not find Christianity.

Apostate church-goers will moan over homosexuality and atheists (the two favorite topics of the apostasy), but they will not offer the gospel or Jesus–instead offering on THEIR OWN VERSIONS.

God’s Word pronounces them doubly cursed.

“But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.”
—Galatians 1:8-9

Altar calls, sinners’ prayers, ABC’s of salvation: but no gospel.

When asked if they believe we are living in the end times, it is almost universal that church-goers will respond “Yes!” When asked if they believe God Word, they will likewise respond in the affirmative.

But when it is pointed out what God’s Word has to say about the end times churches, they will almost to a person insist that their church is “different.”

They are indeed special people.

Yesterday’s Supreme Court decision will give the churches something to talk about for a few weeks. It will also give the antichrist hucksters masquerading as evangelists, along with the so-called discernment ministries and TV preachers, something about which to preach.

It will also give the wolves in the pulpits something about which to posture. They will TALK about “going to jail” and other nonsense–but will DO nothing about the abominations which are taking place in their own churches. And they will continue to offer their own cursed “alternatives” to the gospel of salvation.

Homosexuality is like abortion: it’s talked about endlessly and postured about, but when it comes right down to it, the only thing that will happen is TONS of money will be raised by the deceitful workers.

The church-goers at Laodicea offended Jesus so much he said he would vomit them out of His mouth.

It’s helpful to keep in mind the sins of the American churches are easily more than those listed for Laodicea.

THE GOOD NEWS?

The good news for those in the apostate churches?

Jesus promised that if ANY in the church of Laodicea left their church ways behind and followed HIM instead, He would make them overcomers.

“I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”
—Revelation 3:18-22

Is Your Calling and Election Sure?

Sins of Sodom and the Sins of America

THE GOSPEL

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16

Apostasy in the Churches: 10 More Observations

OBSERVATIONS: On Apostasy, the Churches and the End Times — **OBSERVATIONS:** On Apostasy, the Churches and the End Times

Part 2

“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.”
—Titus 1:16

Reprobate –

rep·ro·bate -ˈreprəˌbāt/

2.Christian Theology
archaic
(especially in Calvinism) a sinner who is not of the elect and is predestined to damnation.

More observations gleaned from a recent trip into the apostate churches.

1- Before moving on to new topics on this subject, let’s take this opportunity to clear up a few loose ends from the previous installment.

PART ONE: Apostasy in the Churches: 10 Observations

A. Church-goers will at times acknowledge that there are many idols worshiped by others in their churches. They will even name quite a few things that church-goers put before God (idols). However, none have ever (in this writer’s presence) associated idol worship with what the Bible says is behind every idol: a devil.

American Apostasy: Disobedience in the House of God

B.Pew-sitters will very often complain that the world is “going to hell in a hand basket.” But to date, none have associated the worsening conditions of the world with the disobedience to God’s Word that is evident in the churches (which are supposed to be the light of the world).

Light in a Dark World: Ye are the Light of the World

C. The first defense of the apostate is “There is no perfect church.” But this is disingenuous: Who’s looking for perfection? Who’s implying that the churches should be perfect?

No one but those defending the ungodliness of the churches.

Forget perfection. Those in the Church are looking for churches that follow the Bible and not man’s doctrines or the latest fashions. Those in the churches might insist that they too want such a situation.

However, by their actions (rank disobedience and rebellion), they declare something altogether different. They claim to desire to follow the Bible only–until it runs up against their job, or their Harry Potter novels or their celebration of pagan holy days. Then their true priorities are revealed.

Now to some new topics.

2- The spread of homosexuality and homosexual marriage is a popular topic in the churches. There is little agreement on many things, but church-goers can often agree that the public displays of homosexuality is not a good sign of the times.

The feeling seems to be that only “liberal,” “depraved” or “bad” churches would ever endorse homosexuality.

The usual list of things condemned by church-goers (in traditional denominations) are: homosexuality, atheists and satanists.

This is because it is fairly easy for many apostates to see that these three things involve disobedience to God’s Word. Even heathens and the worldly know these three things are not of God. For the churches to survive until the coming of the man of sin, there has to be SOMETHING which church-goers can roundly condemn as contrary to God’s Word.

That list has grown extremely short in the modern churches.

MAN OF SIN: The Man of Sin is Coming

3- Apostates fiercely defend “going to church” as a sign that a person is saved and right with God. To suggest that church attendance has nothing to do with salvation is very offensive to many and will cause some to get visibly angry.

Going to Church: Celebrating Tradition, Rituals and Empty Worship

The modern churches are temples full of dead rituals and empty, meaningless ceremonies which comfort the flesh of those attending. Church-goers mistake this temporary feel-good for the spiritual cleansing of true repentance and heartfelt prayer.

It matters not whether the church professes to be Roman Catholic, snake handlers, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Baptists, Science Fiction Church, ascetics, TV ‘ministries,’ Methodist, Lutheran or what-have-you: all are infested with traditions, ceremonies and rituals which satisfy the human hunger for the [security of] routine.

The cause of much anger appears to be that anyone would dare question the legitimacy of church attendance as a ritual of sanctification.

4 – Someone who adheres closer to God’s Word than the apostate is usually labeled “religious,” “legalistic” or “a Pharisee.” This last label is curious. The Pharisees were renowned for their attempts to CIRCUMVENT God’s Word, not adhere to it. They were also infamous for their lip service to God, not their obedience.

“In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.”
—Luke 12:1

So the use of the label “Pharisee” for someone who advocates obedience to God’s Word demonstrates a lack of Bible knowledge of the one applying the label.

5- The churches appear to be able to stomach anything (witchcraft, occult themes, idol worship) EXCEPT disagreement with their worldly, antichrist agenda.

Though they claim to value “All opinions. However, as someone has already pointed out: no one gets to have an opinion on a subject where God has already spoken.

As to their good works and motives, they strive for universal agreement by all in the discussion.

“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.”
—Matthew 10:34

“Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.”
—Luke 12:51-53

“Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.”
—John 15:20-21

Practically any subject can be ruled “out of bounds” by declaring it to “not a salvation issue.” However, the central issue of obedience affects MANY issues that are declared to have no salvational value.

6- Talk of “evil spirits” or “demons” or “devils” make some visibly uncomfortable. Some declare that they do not believe other spirits are interacting with people in the churches today.

Seducing Spirits in the Church: The Supernatural Fan Club

However, the Bible plainly declares the existence of evil and familiar spirits and man’s use of illegitimate supernatural power (Deuteronomy 18:10-12). The practitioners themselves (particularly witches) declare that illegitimate supernatural power exists.

Apparently the only two groups who declare that it does not exist are 1- those who have had no experience with such a thing; and, 2- Those who have but want to keep such experience secret.

The idea that spirits congregate in a place which is used spiritually is not a far-fetched one. IF the Holy Spirit was the only spirit who interacted with believers, God would not have had to issue the following warnings.

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
—1 John 4:1

“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
—2 Corinthians 11:13-15

7- Apostates know the Scripture about “narrow is the way,” but it appears not to matter enough to put away those things they’ve elevated above God (money, jobs, loved ones, etc.). Making God the number one item in their lives seems unrealistic and unworkable.

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
—Matthew 7:13-14

“Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.”
—Luke 13:24

A usual response to the topic is “Hey, I’ve got to live!”

That God will be “reasonable” is another point raised.

8- Some justify and defend the promotion of witches, wizards, (Harry Potter, Halloween) and paganism as “It’s fun!” or “It’s just fantasy. It’s not real!”

It’s usually not helpful to the discussion to point out that “fun” is one of Satan’s greatest tools. Or that many pagans and occultists hide behind the skirts of “fantasy.”

Christianity and the Occult: The Occult goes to Church

PRAYER CIRCLES: Another Pagan Practice in the Church

Halloween 2014 Quotes: Halloween is Satanic and Demonic

Four Blood Moons: American Church Comfortable with Witchcraft

9- It should go without saying it does no good to ever tell a deceived person they are deceived. The Bible says that they cannot hear you.

“We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.”
—1 John 4:6

10- The people who inhabit the churches are almost universally pleasant. They smile a LOT. They are very agreeable on all subjects except those relating to the Bible. One almost hates to disagree with them because they try very hard to be likable. They are likeable.

But this does not in any way lessen the believer’s obligation to defend the faith and doctrines delivered by Jesus Christ.

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.”
—Jude 1:3

For most people,being agreeable is a more pleasant state of affairs than earnestly contending.

It’s almost as if they know that their pleasantness makes it harder to contend for the faith.

TWO BONUS OBSERVATIONS

11-The Scout’s motto (“Be prepared)” is usually always great advice. One should certainly always prepare before one goes into the churches. Prayers and fasting are good ideas.

(IF this seems overly-dramatic to the reader, refer once more to1 John 4:1 and 2 Corinthians 11:13-15.)

When one returns from such a trip, one also should pray for those with whom one interacted.

12- Once more (to repeat what was written in Part One,

When interacting with church-goers it is sometimes hard to determine if the person is being deceived or is “deceiving and being deceived.”

In either case, there is nothing for the believer to do other than to share the gospel and pray. No amount of logic, Bible verses, expert communication or any other earthly means will make a difference.

Only prayer and the gospel.

THE GOSPEL

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

Apostasy in the Churches: 10 Observations

“But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”
—2 Timothy 3:13

INTO THE BELLY OF THE BEAST

Some observations gleaned from a recent trip to the apostate churches.

1- A trip into the apostate churches is always undertaken with the hope that a pocket of believers might be found. However, these hopes are always tempered with the expectations of what the Bible proclaims will be happening in the end times.

“And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do”
—Revelation 13:11,14

God’s Word clearly states that a second beast system will rise that will look like a lamb (Christianity) but speak “as a dragon (Satan).”

This system will look very much like Christianity but will really be teaching and promoting Satan’s way. Will these dragon-worshiping churches spring up overnight? Or will the churches that exist simply be used?

Some may feel that there is a huge leap from the churches as they now exist and dragon worship. But unfortunately, that is not true. Most churches already have idols and witchcraft is common in many churches as well. Regardless of how vehemently their members may protest, not much would have to change for the present church system to go FULL DRAGON.

Of course, the people in the churches will insist that they are not worshiping the dragon. They will claim they are worshiping God Almighty and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Just as most claim today.

IF one asks, almost unanimously, church-goers will state they believe we are living in the end times. But while many church-goers are familiar with Revelation 13:11,13, to date none this writer have talked to associate this end times satanic system of churches with the churches they attend.

Holding two contradictory points of view at the same time has a name. It is called cognitive dissonance by the world and is claimed to be a source of stress.

PART TWO: Apostasy in the Churches: 10 More Observations

2- Attendees of the apostate churches claim they can see the ungodliness that is sweeping through the churches.

Other people’s churches.

When asked about their own, invariably they affirm that their church is different.

3- Church-goers are almost all rebellious concerning God’s Word. Most are okay with sections of the Bible, but the entire Bible is something that is very, very hard for the modern apostate to stomach.

Different Scriptures excite different apostates. One church-goer may be agreeable to all Paul’s instructions to Timothy on how to run the church; but to another, 1 Timothy 2:11-14 is fighting words.

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.”
—1 Timothy 2:11-14

4- Apostates do not want to obey the Word of God.

Apostates will always give a variety of reasons for why disobedience to God’s Word is acceptable.

They will not obey–but they will feel they have a perfectly legitimate reason for doing so. The Bible records many such instances of disobedience in the children of Israel. When such disobedience was discovered, the disobedient ALWAYS had reasons for their transgressions.

And almost always, God struck the disobedient dead (in Saul’s case–and a few other instances–He decreed death).

5- “There is no perfect church.” is the first line of defense when ungodliness and disobedience in the churches are mentioned. When it is pointed out that much of the churches’ works are directly opposed to Christianity, the discussion moves on to other defenses; such as the churches are “doing God’s work.”

6- Many apostates know that the whole world will worship the dragon in the end times. Many apostates claim they believe the end times are now.

But when asked “Where the world will worship the dragon? Will the world conduct this worship in the streets or in an open field? Or in an already existing church?”

They have no answer.

“And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

7- It can be pointed out that denominations are little more than Satan’s name brands. But there is very little agreement on this point by those who currently inhabit the churches.

8- “At what point will people admit the churches are the problem and not the solution and LEAVE their churches?”

When asked this question, those in the churches usually protest that their churches are doing good works. Good works are their defense for any doctrinal differences with the Bible. (This is the same defense used by various and sundry secret societies which are opposed to Jesus Christ. “We do a lot of good work.”)

To date, the question remains unanswered.

9- A similar unanswered question is “What doctrine is so extreme that once a church adopts it, it will result in most of the church members deserting that church?”

10- When interacting with a church-goer, it is sometimes hard to determine if the person is being deceived or is “deceiving and being deceived.”

In either case, there is nothing for the believer to do other than to share the gospel and pray. No amount of logic, Bible verses, expert communication or any other earthly means will make a difference.

Only prayer and the gospel.

THE GOSPEL

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

Self-Love: A Modern American True Love Story

NO TRUER LOVE: Has ever captivated the USA. — **NO TRUER LOVE**: Has ever captivated the USA.

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves,”
—2 Timothy 3:1-2

SIGN OF THE TIMES:

LOVERS OF THEIR OWN SELVES

America is a land which loves itself. America is a land which never tires of promoting itself as the biggest, the best or the ultimate.

And Americans are a people completely in love with themselves.

Celebration of SELF is the biggest celebration in the USA and the amount of time devoted to self is enormous.

Self-help.
Self-esteem.
Self-respect.
Self-confidence.
Self-defense.
Self image.

This list is far from complete.

It seems modern man never tires of talking of himself, exalting himself or taking pictures of himself.

The self-absorbed naturally concentrate on themselves. Their journeys are mostly inward and involve self-discovery. Their deep thoughts revolve around themselves, who they are, what they presume, and what they believe. These self-centered thoughts may passed along to others disguised as “advice.”

The Millennials are the ultimate Me Generation. Raised on self-esteem, lectured on the benefits of self-actualization, self-awareness and self-aggrandizing: the one trait they seem to lack is self-control.

It’s no accident that the most celebrated art form of the Millennials is that perfect symbol of self-celebration: the “selfie.”
—MAN OF SIN: Self-Worship in America

In fact, Americans are so in love with themselves, they practice a form of self-worship.

When the man of sin comes onto the scene, he will appeal to the “good in people.” Though he will speak great swelling words of a false brotherhood and unity (for all of those who follow him; death for those who disagree), he will invite each person to search for the good that is within. The appeal will be that “You’re a good person. Unleash the goodness that dwells within for the benefit of all mankind.”

This directly contradicts Christianity, which teaches that man is wicked, sinful and lost without a savior.
—MAN OF SIN: Self-Worship in America

In direct opposition to this culture of self-love is true Christianity.

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.”
—Luke 9:23

One way to tell the true Christians from the tares and pretenders is their treatment of self. One denies self; the other, exalts it.

There is no truer indication of the times in which we live than 2 Timothy 3:1-2.

Is the reader living by Jesus’ command to deny oneself? Or, is the focus on the world’s false, self-serving creed of “You have to love yourself before you can love others?”

There is no romance so true as the Modern American love story which takes place between an American and one’s SELF. It’s an indication of the country we live in; it’s an indication of the times in which we live.

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.”
—Matthew 16:24

THE GOSPEL

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
-—1 Corinthians 1:18-19

Discernment Inc: Servicing the Apostate Churches

Discernment ministries are there for one reason and one reason only: they lead those who desire to know more about Jesus Christ away from Him. They provide a maze of rabbit trails for the potential Christian.

Rabbit trails go here, there, and everywhere, and pretty much tend to lead nowhere. (Have you ever watched a dog sniff out a rabbit trail? It wanders in small then wider circles, around and around, feverishly looking for the rabbit – literally, a meal and, figuratively, the point of one’s argument.) No one knows what’s at the end of a rabbit trail (the point of one’s argument). Is there even an end to it? It’s a confusing maze of pointless leads. In short, a rabbit trail leads (us) nowhere. It serves only to confuse the prey/the reader. It keeps them preoccupied and confused.

The above is a perfect description of the MO of”discernment ministries–which are not to be found in the Bible and which began popping up in the early ’90s like mushrooms after a rain.

For Christians who don’t celebrate Christmas

Welcome to Full Blown Apostasy in America – From a discernment outfit.

The church in this nation—part of the bride of Christ—opens its arms and embraces Islam, a religion of anti-christ, because we value the peace of man more than the truth of God.

Here’s a newsflash: The bride of Christ is not embracing Islam. The bride of Christ is not in the apostate churches. American’s form of church has been rotten for years. It’s only gotten to the point where it can no longer be hidden.

But it will get worse. The prescription is NOT “more church” or “more Americanized church.” That’s the problem, not the solution.

The article wonders “Is there time to turn things around?”

The USA has had a long, deep and historic relationship with the god of this world: Satan. IF America “returns to its roots, it will be even more occult than it already is–if such a thing is possible.

MEDIA NARRATIVES ALERT“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master.” “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do.

What is Media Mush?

The Corporate Media

BOOM: North America’s explosive oil-by-train problem – All readers who have been convinced that the Keystone Pipeline won’t get built–you worry in vain. Pro-pipeline propaganda such as the “exploding trains in the USA and Canada” won’t stop until the Big Oil pipeline is safely constructed. This particular piece is by–oddly enough–The Weather Channel and InsideClimate News and is styled an “investigation.” It’s subtitled “The Dark Side to Your Cheap Gas.” Which, again, is odd. Why isn’t it “OUR” cheap gas?

There is definitely an US vs THEM. And the “THEM” includes the mystery of iniquity and all of its tentacles.

Slut-Shaming, Eugenics, and Donald Duck: The Scandalous History of Sex-Ed Movies – 100 percent PURE narrative. The most ironically laughable line?

“…sex education actually has its roots in moralizing: American sex-ed films emerged from concerns that social morals and the family structure were breaking down.”

No, actually, they didn’t.

In many, many communities, the advent of sex education created strife, controversy and protests. As with many aspects of parenting, sex ed was something else the State usurped from parents.And while the popular spin is that sex education was all about “reinforcing social mores” and being “morally neutral” in reality, many sex ed films were How-To instruction manuals directed at impressionable teens.

In most cases, Sex Education was something pushed on communities by Big Education.

Now, Big Media is rewriting history to make it sound less like the police state decision which parents had no voice in deciding.

This piece demonstrates what Corporate Media does best: rearranging the facts to construct a scenario which did not exist. They do it well because they do it every day, 24/7 365 days a year.

WHO MADE THESE STATEMENTS?

Who made the following statements? Answer at bottom of page.

1- “Many sweat to reconcile St. Paul and St. James, but in vain. ‘Faith justifies’ and ‘faith does not justify’ contradict each other flatly. “

2- “I maintain that some Jew wrote it [the Book of James]who probably heard about Christian people but never encountered any.”

3- “We should throw the Epistle of James out of this school”

4- “The best way to get rid of the Devil, if you cannot kill it with the words of Holy Scripture, is to rail at and mock him. Music, too, is very good; music is hateful to him, and drives him far away.”

#4 directly contradicts Scripture. In fact, God’s Word states than those who rail at the devil do not know what they do and bring corruption and destruction on themselves.

Not even angels rail at the devil.

“Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.”
—Jude 1:8-10

“But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;”

—2 Peter 2:10-12

Railing against the Devil: What does the Bible Say?

5- “The Devil, too, sometimes steals human children; it is not infrequent for him to carry away infants within the first six weeks after birth, and to substitute in their place imps….”

6- “If I had to baptise a Jew, I would take him to the bridge of the Elbe, hang a stone around his neck and push him over with the words ‘I baptise thee in the name of Abraham’.”

7- “Moreover, that it is most solemnly and strictly commanded that we must be baptized or we cannot be saved…”

8- “Further, we say that we are not so much concerned to know whether the person baptized believes or NOT; for on that account Baptism does not become invalid…”

Pope to install showers for the homeless

“And it came to pass in those days, that He went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.”
–Luke 6:12 – (h/t:B)

If ever one of woman born might have lived without prayer, it was our spotless, perfect a Lord, and yet none was ever so much in supplication as He! Such was His love to His Father, that He loved much to be in communion with Him: such His love for His people, that He desired to be much in intercession for them. The fact of this eminent prayerfulness of Jesus is a lesson for us—He hath given us an example that we may follow in His steps. The time He chose was admirable, it was the hour of silence, when the crowd would not disturb Him; the time of inaction, when all but Himself had ceased to labour; and the season when slumber made men forget their woes, and cease their applications to Him for relief. While others found rest in sleep, He refreshed Himself with prayer. The place was also well selected. He was alone where none would intrude, where none could observe: thus was He free from Pharisaic ostentation and vulgar interruption. Those dark and silent hills were a fit oratory for the Son of God.

THE FAVORITE TOPICS OF THE APOSTATE CHURCH

The favorite topics of apostate church-dom are: homosexuals, satanists, atheists and TV preachers (such as Joel Osteen). The reason?

Because even most of the tares sitting in the pews can tell that homosexuals, satanists, atheists and TV preachers are not from God. It enables the churches to feel morally superior to someone.

HINT: Satan will not disguise his ministers as homosexuals. Satan’s agents will not show up as atheists or satanists. Some will come to the end times party dressed as TV preachers.

“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
—2 Corinthians 11:14-15

When the dragon shows up in his end times Church, he will look a LOT like the ones sitting in the church at present.

That’s biblical. IF the reader doesn’t like it, best take it up with the author of the Book.

Two other Anglican leaders—the United Kingdom’s Michael Nazir-Ali and Nigeria’s Nicholas Okoh—are also among the 32 speakers, as are Boston Pentecostal leader Jacqueline C. Rivers and Anabaptist leader Johann Christoph Arnold. Mormon, Jewish, Muslim, and Sikh leaders have also been invited.

Our Hope and Our Faith, part 3

If our hope and faith are not through Christ in God, then they are vain, and void of substance. Being positive, having self-esteem, or having some quirky mantra you tell yourself in the mirror every morning, all these things are illusions of hope that implode upon gentle prodding. They are the means the world employs to keep trudging along, and not fall into despair altogether, and sadly in recent years much of the church has been employing the selfsame means.

ATHEIST: Religion could be gone in a generation – Don’t believe it. Atheists and homosexuals are the favorite conversation pieces of the apostate Church. Both topics make the worldly apostates feel like they can tell the difference between right and wrong.

Religion is Satan’s favorite method of controlling the masses. He has big plans for religion in the end times. The worldwide whore church of the dragon will call the shots in the end times.

“…and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast?”

“And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
–Revelation 13:3-4, 8

“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world:”
–Revelation 12:9

Many may think that the dragon (Satan) builds a brand new Church; a satanic Church. He does not.

Satan’s Church is a counterfeit (very close copy) of the Christian Church.

The Bible says he uses the perverted apostate Church to do his bidding–and the people inside the Church are all convinced they are worshiping God the Father Almighty!

Kinda like the 2014 American Church.
