Having girded up the loins of our minds, and having become sober, we are then instructed to rest our hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to us at the revelation of Jesus Christ. No, we ought not to rest our hope in our own abilities, or in our pastors, our denominations, or in our evangelists, but rather upon the grace that we receive at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

That includes not resting our hope in our physical preparations: our prepping activities or underground bunkers.

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:”

THERE’S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO PROMOTE THE NEW AGE

NEW AGE END TIMES PERSECUTION: The Rider of the Pale Horse?
NEW AGE END TIMES PERSECUTION: The Rider of the Pale Horse?

Constance Cumbey has made a name for herself as an investigative writer whose claim to fame is exposing the secrets of the New Age.  However, those who carefully read Cumbey immediately realize she offers something besides revelations of the New Agers–a great deal more.

Cumbey is a spinner of narratives for the same forces she purports to expose, either wittingly or not.

In her book, The Staging of the New Age Messiah, Ms. Cumbey went to a great deal of trouble to set up her narrative of a New Age conspiracy which is feverishly working to bring about a “messiah” the Bible calls the “man of sin.” She includes her reasons why this conspiracy should want to help fulfill the Bible’s prophecy–and make no mistake: there is a conspiracy.  The Bible speaks of it; and, this cabal does ceaselessly labor to bring about the fulfillment of end times prophecy.

However, any reader hoping to get to the bottom of end times questions by consulting Cumbey will find the truth elusive at best.  Cumbey weaves her narrative tapestry using strands of psychology, conspiracy, self-fulfilling prophecy and more importantly, the words of the New Age gurus themselves.

Which brings up a question.

How does one go about convincing the reader that the New Age is the epitome of deception (it is) while at the same time offering the reader what the New Age has publicly declared?

That’s the schtick of Constance Cumbey: trust me because I have the truth on the New Age from the lying mouths of the deceptive New Agers themselves.  It’s a recipe for more deception and that’s what the reader is in for. Nevertheless, she still leaves out a great deal and what she doesn’t leave out, she conceals behind her narrative wall.

Exactly who desires the appearance of the man of sin, for what purposes and what the Bible says about it all, is covered in her noxious smog of yarns, cunningly devised fables and cleverly-constructed counterfeits. Those who take what she has written at face value will come away convinced that the New Age is a dangerous crew. And while that may be true on the surface, the New Age is NOT the mystery of iniquity but only a small cog in its great machinery of  deception.

Again, the New Age is dangerous.

For a counterfeit.

For the mystery of iniquity doth already work:”
2 Thessalonians 2:7

One only has to remember that if the New Age did not exist, it would have to be invented by the mystery of iniquity. One also should keep in mind that once invented, the dangers of the New Age would have to be promoted.

Enter one Constance Cumbey, who has performed yeoman’s work in that regard.

Cumbey does give the reader some useful information–if the reader is able to extract such information from the narratives the author has used to frame it.  One example is the following quote by New Ager, Peter LeMesurier.

“The new mission to the youth of the world, then, will be an international movement dedicated to spreading the already developing ideas and values upon which the New Age is to be founded.”

This info is useful because the “new mission to the youth of the world” is a priority goal of the Dominionist strands of pseudo-Christianity which the mystery of iniquity depends upon to help introduce its “messiah.” Readers can see this developing in front of their eyes.  It is not the New Age which is accomplishing this but the cults of Dominionism (including the New Apostolic Reformation and the International House of Prayer).  By a great coincidence, the programs and ideas of these pseudo-Christian cults and those of the New Age are nearly identical.

Again, if the New Age did not exist, the mystery of iniquity would have had to invent it.

Cumbey devotes thousands of words to what the New Age has to say but precious few on what the Bible says on the same subject.  For instance, she studiously avoids answering  the logical questions: WHO is it that is interested in a coming Messiah?  WHO does the Bible say is interested? WHO is it that desires a man (of sin) who will usher in a worldly kingdom?  The reader will find none of these or other pertinent end times questions answered by the cunningly devised fables of Constance Cumbey.

One may read Cumbey for entertainment value without much harm.  However, the reader of her work will be further from the truth after reading her spin on most of the topics she covers.

Our advice is the advice of Jesus, paraphrased.

“Take heed that Constance Cumbey does not deceive you.”

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.

NEW AGE END TIMES: Let the Good Times Roll! (unless you’re a Christian. Or an atheist. Or a subhuman race. Or…)

End Times? – A New Age perspective for the times in which we now live.

Money used to be obtained through manipulation, power and greed. It was for the taking. Now, the energy is shifting to a new paradigm, where abundance will be obtained through receiving. It will shift from the masculine into the feminine. We will witness many old forms of establishments crumble, so a new life can emerge.

This could have been written by New Age apostate christian Joel Osteen.  Osteen covers the topic in a creepy video.

(VIDEO) Joel Osteen: A Shift is Coming

To be honest, it’s difficult to distinguish the New Age from the apostate Church.  They both talk the same, worship the same spirits and, in many cases, profess the same goals and agenda–which is why the Church languishes in apostasy on its journey to becoming the whore Church.  But there is one significant difference between the two groups.

Those who are in the New Age have made a decision to engage in those practices.  Those who sit under the Joel Osteens of the world didn’t sign up for the New Age; they think they are getting a form of happy, gooey Christianity.  Both groups are deceived, but at least the New Age adherents made a conscious choice.

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.”
Matthew 24:4

“In the scores of books lining the shelves of New Age bookstores, there are instructions for guided meditation, creative visualizations, out of body experiences, getting in touch with your spirit guides, fortune telling by cards, crystal balls or the stars.  What if Satanists reclaimed these for their own dark purposes and integrated them into rituals dedicated to the Devil, where they rightfully belong?  New Agers have freely drawn upon all manner of Satanic material, adapting it to their own hypocritical purposes… But in truth, all ‘New Age’ labeling is, again, trying to play the Devil’s game without using His Infernal name. “

IT’S JUST AROUND THE CORNER:
THE MANY FALSE CLAIMS OF AN END TIMES WORLDWIDE REVIVAL WITHOUT REPENTANCE

From Here We Go Again (May 2007

Personally, I would rather enquire of the scriptures and see what they indicate regarding the last days. Does the Bible state that the Church and world will experience a world-wide soul-saving revival or not? Are there any prophetic statements that (in their context) indicate a great sweeping move of the Spirit prior to the return of Christ? I will simply cite a few of the biblical texts and let you draw your own conclusions:

many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Matthew 24:10-12

At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect–if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time. Matthew 24:23-25

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their action deserve. 2 Corinthians 11:13-15

The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kind of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. The perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

But mark this: there will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, ratherlovers of pleasure  than lovers of God– having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. 2 Timothy 3:1-5

For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4

But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them–bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. 2 Peter 2:1-3

First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our fathers died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” 2 Peter 3: 4

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1

In these eight passages do you read anything about a great world-wide soul-saving revival”? I read of the love of most people growing cold, of the danger of false Christs (truth Matters just dealt with one last month), false apostles, false teachers, and false prophets. At no time in recorded Church history have there been as many people claiming to either be a restored apostle or prophets as there are today. (16)

Deceivers are going about seeming to work signs and wonders which are not from God. Claims of holy laughter, spiritual drunkenness, being slain in the spirit, heavenly jewels, and even angel feathers abound in thousands of congregations.

The Bible says nothing of a great worldwide end times revival.  Quite the opposite.

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;”
2 Thessalonians 2:3

However, to the lukewarm and deceived, the great falling away will indeed look just like a great worldwide revival.  And so it will be: a worldwide move of deceiving spirits which will usher in the greatest satanic revival the world has ever seen.

Which will suit the lukewarm and deceived just fine.  There will be no repentance. No need to change lives grown comfortable in this present world. No heavy lifting.  The falling away will be the perfect revival for the apostate American Church.

The world may think that the Devil Wears Prada, but in these last days, he most definitely has been wearing the garb of “the evangelist.”

But Jesus made a way for the lost and the lukewarm and the deceived.

PRAYER CIRCLES: Another Pagan Practice in the Church

PAGAN PRAYER CIRCLES: Many Christian Churches pray in circles. Is this Biblical?
PAGAN PRAYER CIRCLES: Many Christian Churches pray in circles. Is this Biblical?

WHERE DID PRAYER CIRCLES ORIGINATE?

WHEN DID THEY ENTER THE CHURCH?

HOW DID THEY ENTER THE CHURCH?

PRAYER CIRCLES – Praying in a circle, holding hands: where does the practice come from?  Why can’t one find it in the Bible?  Where did prayer circles originate and how and when did they enter the Christian Church?  A 15-year-old study by Ed Tarkowski answers many questions–and predicts where the practice may be heading.

CHRISTIANS PRAYING IN A CIRCLE: WHERE DID IT ORIGINATE?

1999, Ed Tarkowski published a four-part study on prayer circles, a practice that was, at the time, just gaining popularity in some Christian churches. While the study is full of useful information on the origins of such rituals, it’s extremely interesting to read the study 15 years later.

Prayer circles have a long history of use among pagans, witches, and other occult practitioners.  But the use of the prayer circle in Christianity, like so many other modern rituals, practices and doctrines, can be traced to the American apostate church.

In 1999, Tarkowski noticed the increased use of prayer circles by Christians, but he also noticed that Christians were late-comers to the prayer circle game.  Others had used these circles for decades–sometimes centuries.

If you doubt that prayer circles are so widespread, or such a powerful tool, read the list below of just a few of the examples of prayer circles that I found on the World Wide Web. Besides these sites, there are numerous New Age and Christian Chat Sessions (used by Internet users to discuss various topics) that include prayer circles or discussions sbout them. As you will see, the circles are prevalent in the apostate church, the New Age, and even in the secular world. The whole world is being prepared to welcome the arrival of the Beast of Revelation 13, and to follow after him.

One of the most interesting of Tarkowsi’s findings concerned the mention of joining hand-in-hand in the Bible its connection with those who intend evil.

I did some searching in Strong’s Concordance, and found nothing regarding circles, except for one reference to God as the one “that sitteth upon the circle of the earth” (Isaiah 40:22.) Next, I looked up what it said about “joining hands” in prayer, but that didn’t help either. Then I searched through the KJV and Strong’s for various combinations of the words “join” and “hand”, and “hold” and “hand.” What resulted from that search turned out to be very enlightening. I found only two Scriptures regarding “joining hands,” but they were not associated with prayer. They were:

Proverbs 11:21 Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.

Proverbs 16:5 Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.

The Prayer Circle: What is its Unbiblical Origin? – This is the introduction to the  four-part study with links to the other sections.

PRAYER CIRCLES: Another pagan/occult practice which has entered Christian churches
PRAYER CIRCLES: Another pagan/occult practice which has entered Christian churches

When a link to this study was first posted five or six months ago, it offended some.  Those it offended 1- couldn’t point to a single instance in the Bible of believers praying in a circle; and, 2- are strong believers in sanctification by participation.  If they do it, it must be holy.  It’s holy because they participate in it.

This study got this writer thinking back: not once could he ever remember praying in a circle–and the opportunities for public or church prayer over the years were many.  This practice was unknown to him until he joined a church which endorsed this style of prayer.

PRAYER CIRCLES: Witchcraft in Charismania – Some additional thoughts.

What ETPR said back in November 2013 [End Times Prophecy Headlines: November 30-December 1, 2013]:

Prayer Circles: Their Unbiblical Origins, part 2 – This 1999 article warned of the invasion of prayer circles into the church, predating The Circle Maker by 14 years.  It’s part of a four-part series which is both informative and interesting.  It’s conclusion is that prayer circles are preparing Christians for the coming one-world beast religion.

And this from November 19, 2013:

DECEPTION – This writer often remarks about the deception which envelopes the USA.  It is everywhere in our culture and especially in our media. The reader who does not think that this deception is blanketing him is a  reader already deceived.

One of the enemy’s greatest deceptions is the use of the “Christian” label.  Slap a “CHRISTIAN” label on a book–voila!  What is filled with occult themes is now “Christianized” and thought perfectly safe for consumption.  The same process is used for films, music, DVDs and other media.

How many churches have mindlessly pushed cleverly-packaged media to their members because it carried a “Christian” label?

The list is huge and gotten larger over the last 20 years.  There are plenty of Christians sitting in pews–or chairs depending on where one sits–who argue against the Bible using the deceptions picked up from books, films and/or TV labeled “Christian.”

There are many examples; for now, Harry Potter, The Harbinger and The Circle Maker will do.

Churches in America are under an unrelenting assault.  The weapons used to deliver the enemy’s message are the culture, the music and the ignorance and pride of many of the very ones manning the walls watching.

“Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned? It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.”
Luke 14:34-35

Do you know the One who will never deceive you?

Before the pagan witchcraft of Mark Batterson’s The Circle Maker, there were prayer circles. In fact, one might say that without the preparation of prayers circles, The Circle Maker would not have been possible.

The enemy is a master deceiver.

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.”
Matthew 24:4


APOSTASY IN THE CHURCH

Apostate American Church: Sanctification through Participation

PRAYER CIRCLES: Another Pagan Practice in the Church


It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

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

Altered Spiritual Perception: The Altered Spiritual Reality in American Churches

ALTERED STATES OF PERCEPTION: Substituting altered realities for a "Move of God"

​LOOKING FOR A “MOVE OF GOD”

IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES

MANIPULATING PERCEPTIONS TO OBTAIN A SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE is not foreign in the American Church. Control the perception and one controls the reality. Like the atmosphere at satanic dance shows, churches have begun manipulating the lighting, sound, beats, smells and other inputs in an effort to control the resulting spiritual experience. It’s all part of the new experience-based theology which promotes emotions and feelings over the Word of God.

 “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1 Timothy 4:1

ALTERED PERCEPTION, ALTERED REALITY: THE NEW SPIRITUALITY IN THE AMERICAN CHURCH


MANIPULATING THE ATMOSPHERE IN SEARCH OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Are Christians being spiritually manipulated?

Some further observations about the modern American rituals and practices which Christians engage in to bring about what is commonly referred to as a “move of God” or a “move of the Spirit.”

The Emerging Spiritual Revolution – From 2007.

Mass revival was a method that was both “emotional and illogical” (p. 27), but that is what the leaders wanted. J. Edwin Orr, Armin Gesswein, Billy Graham, and others studied the mechanics of the revivals. Orr taught a class on “Spiritual Awakening” at Wheaton College in 1949 (p. 37). The goal of these revivals was to create a sensation of the “presence” of the Holy Spirit. By the 1970s, a mechanism for mass indoctrination was created that critic John E. Ashbrook referred to as “Explos and Extravanganzas” (New Neutralism II, Here I Stand, 1992, p. 77). Mass spiritual events in stadiums, could work people up into an emotional frenzy. And heightened emotions were supposed to be evidence of the “presence” of God.

Heightened emotions and altered states of perception and consciousness are the name of the game; both in electronic stadium dance rock and in American churches.

When this writer was a heathen, the electronic dance milieu was a very familiar one–until God, in His infinite mercy, saved a wretch from its pulsating grasp.  Praise God!  Anyone who has the least familiarity with dance culture and events will instantly recognize the many similarities between the world’s satanic shows and the “Christianized” praise and worship concerts of Christian music youth events.

“…at one point in my research I came across Qlimax events, and I had to turn the volume down completely because the video and music together are so disturbing. Incidentally, those events, which are completely demonic, looked and sounded very similar to Christian contemporary worship concerts that I have attended. The entertainers and the audience were both acting in the same ways, and I came to the conclusion that they were of the same spirit.”
comment, The Global Seduction is NOW, are you being seduced along with the world?

What’s the endgame?  Why the infusion of mood- and mind-altering atmosphere in Christian events?  Why all of the altered perception tricks and altered states of consciousness passed off as the Holy Spirit?

Sure, it’s all about bypassing the brain–which the Bible commands us to use while worshiping–and letting emotions and feelings taking over.

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.”
Matthew 22:37

This is one reason false teachers have shifted the emphasis from worship using a conscious awareness of Scripture to an experience-based “modern” worship which works directly on the emotions of the one worshiping.

But it’s also about introducing the congregations to  a new power: the power of counterfeit spirits.

Many who sit in Christian churches, because they do not test the spirits as the Bible commands,  mistake these deceptive spirits in the Church for the Holy Spirit.

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

COUNTERFEIT SPIRIT: There is one Holy Spirit. There are many lying and deceiving spirits, especially the spirit of antichrist.
COUNTERFEIT SPIRIT: There is one Holy Spirit. There are many lying and deceiving spirits, especially the spirit of antichrist.

COUNTERFEIT HOLY SPIRIT: Lying Spirits of Deception in the Churches

Spirits of deception and counterfeit spirits of God: they prepare those who sit in American churches for a coming event, led by a guy the Bible calls the “Man of Sin.”

MAN OF SIN: The Man of Sin is Coming

MAN OF SIN: Satan is Raising Up an End Times Army

Preparing the World for the Man of Sin, hidden in plain sight

While most Christians in America are listening to John MacArthur, Jimmy DeYoung, Brannon Howse & others say it’s OK to take the Mark of the Beast/Still be redeemed, they are also busy with their “Christian culture” of retreats, potlucks, “lift up your hand, come forward crusades” with flesh appealing rock music, political causes, and lifting up men who cover-up exposed liars, Satan is openly preparing the world to receive him.

[…]

These increasing global events are spreading like wildfire under the names of Qlimax, Tomorrowland, Global Journey, MysteryLand and others (SOURCE). These aren’t merely concerts but multi-day festivals where millions of people are increasingly attending globally and then they return back in to society after being programmed. The roots are being laid for the “man of sin” under the guise of entertainment.

What makes these events totally different than your normal concert is there is a open spiritual element being conveyed by Freemasonry and Satanism all under the guise of “love”. These multimillion dollar events are all over the world at the same time. These events take “entertainment” to another satanic spiritual level while all are blinded by Satan.

Altered perceptions begin by changing the atmosphere.  Lights, sounds, smells, physical activity:  anything that leads to heightened emotions and feelings and propels the worshiper to an emotional release which is passed off as a “move of God.”

The world has learned these tricks all too well.  Some in the Church are using them as well.

The following two videos contain footage of two youth music events.  One is openly occult and the other is “Christianized.”  Can the reader tell which is which without looking at the titles of the two videos?

(VIDEO) Satanic world events preparing for the Man of Sin

Jesus Freak- Newsboys @ Winterfest 2013

The evil indoctrination in “christian” dance music and the rest of the world – Comparing two dance shows with worldly occult themes and one Hillsong show–with similar themes?!?  Can the reader make out any difference between the worldly and the “christianized”?

Practiced enough, altered perceptions many times become altered reality.  It’s all about altering perception, of shifting consciousness, of “losing yourself”: which readies the practitioner for a spiritual experience.  Christians are deceived into thinking this spirit is the Holy Spirit.

Those in the world know better.

Which makes those in the world both better informed and more discerning than many sitting in America’s churches.

Absolutely, pathetically sad.

“Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
Revelation 22:20

Persecution of the Saints: The Fear and the Pit and the Snare

END TIMES PERSECUTION OF THE SAINTS: The Fear and the Pit and the Snare
END TIMES PERSECUTION OF THE SAINTS: The Fear and the Pit and the Snare – The London Dungeon. Guillotine. [Source: Johnny’s Picture Diary: England > London Dungeon 02/02-2002]

THE COMING END TIMES PERSECUTION OF THE SAINTS

What does the Bible Say?

THE WHORE OF BABYLON THE GREAT

The Corporate Media has been awash with talk of persecution and martyrdom of Christians.

In Syria.

In the Middle East.

All over the world.

Why is that?

Has the Corporate Media suddenly developed this great love for Christians–a group it absolutely despises?  Is it trying to warn believers?  Do they really believe that “Brotherhood of Man” stuff they’re constantly pushing on the great unwashed?

No.

No.

And no.

It’s all about fear.

THE FEAR AND THE PIT AND THE SNARE

The Coming Persecution – This article is a good overview of the stated objectives of the New Age and what its ascendency means to the true believers of Jesus Christ.

That said, this article has much good information about the trees (the New Age component of the coming New World Order spirit of antichrist beast system) but it doesn’t really see the forest (the New Age is but one component; representing the well-promoted face of coming persecution.  The fear of which is meant to herd Christians to something worse than physical persecution.)  Tough as it is for the modern American Christian to believe, there are worse things than physical persecution.

Like eternity in a lake of fire.

But the article gets a lot right, even if the author still holds to some of the mass-marketed eschatology of the Modern American Prophecy Industry. He makes some canny observations. [Emphasis added.]

“The Lord Jesus Christ reveals to us that mystery Babylon will be responsible not only for bringing the Antichrist to power, but for the atrocities of having both Christians and Jews put to death. New Age Babylon is referred to as being “drunk with the blood of the saints” and “the blood of the witnesses of Jesus” (Revelation 17:1-6). Since the great whore of Babylon rides the beast, she fuels his cause with religious terror and spiritual reasons as to why Christians and Jews must be put to death.”

American Christians are being primed with the fear of persecution in order to more easily herd them later into the boxcars of the beast.  To the great relief of the lukewarm Christian, these boxcars will not be headed to a FEMA camp or a place of execution.  For the lukewarm and deceived American pew-sitter, these will not even be literal boxcars–at least not for them.

For the lukewarm and deceived, these boxcars will be headed to a Church! (Maybe it’ll have a coffee shop?)

IF ONLY American church-goers would stumble across the many passages of their Bibles which speak of tribulation and affliction, they would discover that there are far worse things than persecution in the flesh.  Far from being the “wrath of God” as many have been carefully taught, persecution is associated with words like “rejoicing” and “glory.”

“So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:”
2 Thessalonians 1:4

“Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.”
2 Corinthians 12:10

“Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.”
Matthew 5:11

“For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.”
Mark 13:19

“For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;”
2 Corinthians 4:17

“Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;”
1 Peter 4:1

End Times Trials, Tribulations, Trouble and Disaster: Put your trust in Jesus

Persecution, Tribulation, Troubles, Trials: What the Bible says to Christians

But those in the end times churches will experience neither persecution nor glory.  And since they will be under a “strong delusion,” the chances of anyone reversing course don’t look so good.

The Bible has repeatedly warned us.  In fact, Isaiah 24 lays out the whole New Age/Whore of Babylon game plan to any willing to read it–particularly verses 17 and 18.

“Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth. And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.”
Isaiah 24:17-18

The fear of persecution will drive millions of deluded, lukewarm pew-sitters who play at Christianity into the pit of the end times American Babylonian whore Church.  From the pit of that church, God’s eventual judgments on the earth will snare them.

“I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD.”
Jeremiah 50:24

Not a pretty scenario–and it could be avoided if only Americans had a love for the truth.

But Scripture tells believers that most American who call themselves “Christians” will willingly accept the Babylonian Church “because they received not the love of the truth.”

Back to the New Age.

THE NEW AGE: HEAVILY-HYPED AGENT OF PERSECUTION

NEW AGE END TIMES PERSECUTION: The Rider of the Pale Horse?
NEW AGE END TIMES PERSECUTION of the SAINTS: The Rider of the Pale Horse?

Make no mistake: there will be persecution and cleansing under the New Age, New World Order.

“New Age leader, Barbara Marx Hubbard has stated, “people will either change or die,” for “that is the choice.” According to those who would concur with Hubbard, Christians will need to be more open minded so they too can receive the mark of the Antichrist. If they will not join with the global community and its agenda, they will be killed by the “opened minded” New Agers. She states that, “This act is as horrible as killing a cancer cell. It must be done for the sake of the future of the whole. So be it; be prepared for the selection process which is now beginning. We, the elders, have been patiently waiting until the very last moment before the quantum transformation, to take action to cut out this corrupted and corrupting element in the body of humanity. It is like watching a cancer grow; something must be done before the whole body is destroyed…. The destructive one fourth must be eliminated from the social body.”
Barbara Marx Hubbard and the Selection Process

“We are in charge of God’s selection process for planet Earth. He selects, we destroy. We are the riders of the pale horse, death… We do this for the sake of the world.”
–Barbara Marx Hubbard, The Book of Co-Creation, p. 59

Of course Hubbard is wrong.  The New Age is not the rider of the pale horse.  The New Age may run beside the pale horse.  Kinda like an annoying rainbow-colored little yapping dog.  For some time the New Age and the Luciferians have very publicly held up large, brightly-colored posters that proclaimed “Hey!  Look at us!  We’re the pale horse!  Fear us! Are you scared yet?  Come on, fear us!”

“And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.”
Revelation 6:8

The Rainbow Swastika: A report to the Jewish people about New Age anti-Semitism

(VIDEO) Exposing the New Age Movement – intro

So the New Age claims that it will be cleansing the planet–and there will be some of that going on–and the “purging (killing)” will be purposely horrific.

“The better to scare you with, my dear.”

THE END TIMES WHORE OF BABYLON CHURCH

WHORE OF BABYLON: Worldwide American Apostate Church
WHORE OF BABYLON: Worldwide American Apostate Church?

But there’s another group who’s also itching to cleanse the earth.

“The way to achieve dominion is not to become “America’s Taliban,” but rather to have kingdom-minded people in every one of the Seven Mountains: Religion, Family, Education, Government, Media, Arts & Entertainment, and Business so that they can use their influence to create an environment in which the blessings and prosperity of the Kingdom of God can permeate all areas of society.”
C. Peter Wagner, The New Apostolic Reformation is not a Cult!, Charisma magazine, Aug 24, 2011

And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.”
Revelation 17:9

Sounds great!  Little wonder most American pew-sitters won’t have to be herded into such a refuge: they’ll run to it.    Like the New Age, Wagner also talks a lot about “paradigm shifts” and “comfort zones.”  But the dragon’s whore church that the apostate will embrace also talks of a great end times cleansing. [Emphasis added.]

Yet, not all NAR leaders admit to promoting dominionism. Some NAR leaders, such as Mike Bickle of the International House of Prayer in Kansas City, Missouri, directly deny that they are promoting dominionism or, what he calls, “Dominion Theology.”30 But despite his denial, Bickle’s teachings are in line with “Kingdom Now” dominionism, including his teaching that the end-time church will cleanse the earth of evil. According to Bickle, this feat will be accomplished by end-time Christians — under the leadership of apostles and prophets — who will say “prophetic” prayers that will release the Great Tribulation judgments on the kingdom of the Antichrist.”

New Apostolic Reformation: Influence and Teachings

Totally 100 percent NOT biblical–unless one is talking about the satanic Whore of Babylon Church.

Then it’s completely, absolutely 100 percent biblical.

But since when has not being biblical slowed down antichrist ambitions?  As long as it LOOKS biblical enough to fool most American pew-sitters, it will be close enough for one-world government work.

“The major tenets of the adherents of this sect include the belief that we are living in the final years before the return of Christ. However, they differ from dispensationalists in their belief that they must defeat evil on the earth and purify the existing churches before Jesus can return. Furthermore, the building of this “Kingdom of God” is not to be delayed until after the Rapture, or to be built in a heavenly sphere. They believe that they have a mandate to build the Kingdom in the present and in the physical realm.”
Palin’s Churches and the New Apostolic Reformation

One has to admit it makes little difference who does the actual killing/cleansing: Hubbard’s little New Age Luciferian yapping dog  or the much more dangerous “Satan’s Whore of Babylon worldwide Church of the Signs and Lying Wonders” crew.

The saints will be just as dead.

“And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.”
Revelation 13:5,7

“And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.”
Daniel 7:25

But the Whore will beckon and offer a safe haven, so that’s where most Americans who congregate in the churches will be. At least they won’t be lonely: they’ll have their strong delusion to keep them company.

That’s pretty much the choice for true believers: death by beheading OR death by being forced to listen to the yak-yak-yak of the Dominionist antichrist Whore of Babylon fake apostles and prophets–and then beheading.

Hate to be the one to break it: Not a lot of wiggle room.

Of course, the REAL choice is between persecution or perdition. But unfortunately, many will be looking to save their lives.

IF ONLY they believed their Bibles.

“Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it”
Luke 17:33

The end times were never about charts and timelines. Or guessing the day and and hour. Or counting the days until the next Jewish feast.  Or temples to be built with human hands. Or fake blood moons. Or guessing the nationality of that scary guy in the AntiChrist suit. Or waiting for a worldwide revival without repentance. Or renouncing the better covenant in favor of the Old under the guise of “Daniel’s 70th week for the Jews.” Or, being comfortably sucked out of Babylon before proving our love for the One who already proved His. Or any of the other cunningly-devised fables.

“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”
Revelation 12:11

The end times were always about forcing those who honor God and Jesus with their lips to make a real choice.

That choice isn’t to run to the end times satanic whore church of the dragon which will be praying down Satan’s fire and other signs and lying wonders.  If you are in that Church, you’ve already made your choice.

The real choice: Either stand up for Jesus Christ when the whhiizzzzz of the guillotine is in the air.

Or sit down and shut up.

For eternity.

Because if one stands up for Jesus Christ in the end times–the REAL Jesus, not the other Jesus that’s being taught in so many churches in America; not Baby Jesus; not Jesus the Passionate Groom; not Jesus the Presence unleashed in you for POWER or Buddy Jesus the Love-God: the real Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God of the Bible Jesus–there’s not going to be anywhere to hide.

(Unless God, in his sovereign power, has decided you need to be hidden–and if one is worshiping another Jesus, that Jesus has no power to save, either eternally or physically.)

There are those who do make it through.  In spite of what the Dominionists/NAR/IHOPpers teach, there is a rapture–though it takes on a much different form than what 95 percent of America’s worldly church-goers have been spoon-fed.

It’s not the the corrupt Christian Corporate Media version.

For now thankfully, all of that’s in the future…

…for yet a little while longer.

===NATIONAL

Rand Paul wins CPAC straw poll – Media darling Ted Cruz 2nd; Jeb Bush 3rd, Sarah Palin a distant 4, Chris Christie 5 – Here’s what the media traditionally does: 1-2 years from the start of the primaries, the Corporate Media feature the longest shots and build them up as if they had a chance while pretending they matter.

Take an entire week’s worth of solid national coverage and even Donald Trump can appear to be other than a sad little media clown.

CPAC is one of those manufactured events which have zero significance outside of the auditorium in which this (high dollar) show takes place.  The Corporate Media covers CPAC the way that the media traditionally covers such events: the conservative media writes big wet kisses and the liberal press boo and hiss loudly.  BUT, in the end, the event gets plenty of coverage–including CPAC’s mostly-forgotten-as-soon-as-its-conducted straw poll.

In 2013-14,Chris Christie, who has no support outside of his payroll window and Ted Cruz, this election cycle’s conservative bulldog, have garnered the most early media attention.   If history is any indicator, Ted Cruz is being built up only to be let down.  Jeb Bush or Sarah Palin seem to be the favorites, if history is any guide.  With almost 32 months until the 2016 elections, Jeb Bush is probably the favorite–although unless one has seen the script, one really won’t know until 2016.Maybe it’ll be Bush-Palin–especially if that ticket plays after some type of large American setback, foreign or domestic?

The entire nominating process is one big media show, consisting of events that are easily manipulated: polls, charts showing money raised, debates, interviews and appearances before panels and captive audiences.  Voting is almost an afterthought and only serves to confirm whatever narratives the media is churning out that day.

Is Ben Carson the sleeper candidate of 2016? – No he is not.  Sorry.  But in 2014, Ben Carson–if only for a few weeks or a month–will be given media attention that he won’t be able to beg, borrow or steal come late 2015 or 2016, right before the primary voting begins.  In fact, by 2016, Ben Carson may be in a completely different line of work other than politics.

John McCain: I want Ted Cruz to apologize to Bob Dole – Why?  Did Cruz start referring to himself in the third person (as Dole so annoyingly, constantly did)?

How about John McCain apologize to the American people for being a puppet boy?  While we’re at it, how about everyone who holds down a political position in Washington DC issue blanket apologies and resignations?  That would be a start.

Does that sound too harsh?

The craziest of the Russian City Climbers (PHOTOS) – Don’t look at the photos if you are afraid of heights.  The cool thing to say is that people in this world are adrenaline junkies.

Is the blockbuster film “Son of God” biblical? – The author of this piece can’t be called a Christian apologist.  He’s found a new calling: a Hollywood apologist, explaining why it’s not a bad thing that the movie and the Bible differ on so many points.  And the author wants readers to not only keep his pro-Hollywood arguments in mind for this movie, but for ALL the coming Hollywood Bible movies.  Has he seen these movies?  Then how can he defend what he has not seen?

Forget bird flu.  The real pandemic is among those claiming to be Christians who talk out of both sides of their mouths.

“While the Bible must be held in the highest regard and treated with the utmost respect, we should never treat any rendition or adaptation of the Bible on par with God’s revealed Word. Son of God is meant to point people to the Bible, not replace it.”

There are modern-day miracles in 2014.  One example: It’s a wonder the author’s lips aren’t in traction after the vertigo-inducing flip flops in that mouthful.

Here’s a question for the author: which Bible is Son of God pointing people to: “God’s revealed Word” or the rendition portrayed in the movie?  What if moviegoers believe that what the movie says is really in the Bible?  Should we be concerned or is it all good?

Double-talk and gobbledygook.

“The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.”
Albert Einstein

Interesting for a couple of reasons.

1- Why would anyone be interested in what Albert Einstein had to say about women?  There’s no evidence that Albert Einstein had any special insight into women or their issues–which are always portrayed in the Corporate Media as completely separate from the rest of humanity’s issues.
2- What Einstein had to say about women actually carries no more weight than what the Three Stooges had to say.
3- Why is it assumed that the “…places no one has ever been before” are good places?  Most likely they are not good places.  Maybe that’s the reason “no one has ever been there before?
4- As usual, what the Bible says completely contradicts Einstein.

“Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.”
Jeremiah 6:16

TIPS FOR SIFTING THE CORPORATE MEDIA ACCOUNTS:

  1. Whatever the Corporate Media is claiming, figure the truth to be in the opposite direction.
  2. If the Corporate Media is warning of impending doom, is it because they want to give readers a heads-up?  Is it because they care for the unwashed masses and want to warn them?  Or are they doing what they always do: manipulating information to herd people to where they want them to go?
  3. There are bits and pieces of the truth to be found in the Corporate Media, but the process of finding them is akin to panning for gold.  Prepare to invest a lot of time to find the occasional nugget of truth buried in the slag piles of disinformation, propaganda and increasingly, outright lies.

MICHAEL SWIFT’S GAY MANIFESTO: GAY RANT or NEW WORLD ORDER PROCLAMATION?

Michael Swift’s Gay Manifesto – (h/t:J) First published in February 1987 and entered into the Congressional Record.  Interesting for a couple of reasons.  1- This obviously was published to stoke feelings of anger, repulsion and fear.  2- Was it written by a homosexual?  Two-part answer.

A- Most likely.  BUT, it was posted by a homosexual whose allegiance was only secondarily to homosexuality.

B- Where was the author’s primary allegiance?  A tip-off is in the penultimate line of the screed.

“We too are capable of firing guns and manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution.”

“…the ultimate revolution” was the title of a 1962 speech by NWO puppet, Aldous Huxley, given at the University of California, Berkeley.  In the speech, Huxley admitted that his novel “Brave New World” and George Orwell’s “Nineteen Eighty-Four” were not pieces of fiction, but were two different blueprints for controlling the population in a coming New World Order police state.

Orwell’s vision in Nineteen Eighty-Four was a more traditional view of controlling the population using terror, surveillance and heavy-handed coercion by a government which had a monopoly on lethal force.

Huxley’s vision was very different.  As he explained in his speech at Berkeley, a government can only use terror to control a population for a short period of time.  At some point, there has to be a measure of cooperation by the controlled population in order for a long-term regime to be effected. In an efficient, long-term prison state, people have to consent to what is happening to them.  Huxley called controlling the population using techniques other than sheer force and coercion “The Ultimate Revolution.”

Whoever the real author of the Gay Manifesto was, by the tone and wording of the piece, he was in fact most likely a New Age/New World Order bot first and primarily–and a homosexual, second.

And God loves homosexuals and New Age/New World Order workers: he sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for their sins and make a way for them to be forgiven and enter heaven.

Yes, God loves every sinner–right up until the moment they die.  Then the Perfect Judge must judge perfectly.

Odd, Intriguing, Surprising Facts about World War I

Cultural production of ignorance provides rich field for study –   Articles such as this are a start.

Robert Proctor doesn’t think ignorance is bliss. He thinks that what you don’t know can hurt you. And that there’s more ignorance around than there used to be, and that its purveyors have gotten much better at filling our heads with nonsense.

Robert Proctor is one of the world’s leading experts in agnotology, a neologism signifying the study of the cultural production of ignorance.”

This article explores some of the techniques used to keep Americans in ignorance.  Some are used by Big Business; some are used by the Corporate Media.  A few are used in this article itself  which casts doubt upon legitimate concerns of the opponents of vaccines and ObamaCare.

The article ends up being an entertaining, if misleading piece about the bliss of ignorance, a justification for the Corporate Media’s decades-long role in deceiving Americans about the dangers of smoking and the wonderful value of Corporate Media nonsense which mislead their readers.

APOSTASY: NEW AGE LAODICEA IN JOEL OSTEEN’S AMERICA

LIVING IN AN AMERICAN NEW AGE LAODICEA

Earthquakes?  Check.

Wars?  Check.

Rumors of War?  Check.

All of the indications that Christians are living in the end times are present.  In fact, many Christians will proclaim, “We are living in the end times!

However,  their lives proclaim that they they are not living in the last days.

A few observations and thoughts about the New Age, its infiltration into the American Christian Church, Joel Osteen, apostasy, paradigm shifts and other New Age terms being used by Christians and the dangers of compromise.

PARADIGM SHIFT

Paradigm Shift – From a New Age/New Thought site  One way to tell is the prominent display of a section titled “Paradigm Shift.”

This is a term which has burrowed itself into the Christian Church over the last 10-20 years, especially in the Purpose-Drive Apostasy of Rick Warren and his mentor, Peter F. Drucker.

Peter Drucker’s Key Role in the corruption of Evangelicalism

(VIDEO) Joel Osteen: A Shift is Coming – Creepy–and not just because it is delivered through the perpetual smile of one of America’s favorite Mainstreamers of Apostasy.

WARNING: An ad for Osteen’s New Age Positive Affirmation CD “I Can” precedes the video.  The infiltration of New Age ideas, techniques and practices USING CHRISTIAN TERMS and LABELING appears to be one of the biggest challenges to those who remain loyal to Jesus Christ.

The original pioneer of bringing New Age positive affirmations into the Christian Church preceded Osteen by 40-50 years: Norman Vincent Peale.  Maybe that’s one reason, though many Christians bought his books, Peale was heavily promoted by the world and the Corporate Media.  Peale was also most likely the first person–and certainly the most famous–to yoke Christianity with psychiatry.

If 2 Corinthians 6;15 were taken seriously by the American Church, much New Age heresy–indeed, heresies in general–would be stopped in its tracks.

“And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?”
2 Corinthians 6:15

Alas, professing Christians give any number of reasons to dismiss this verse while compromising with the very forces seeking the destruction of Christianity.

Compromise is so insidious, it’s not even noticed as such by those engaged in it.

ONE EXAMPLE: This writer was asking questions on a forum a few months ago: about the supposed third Jewish temple, about Christ’s “once and for all sacrifice,” and about whether God would return to the Old Covenant during the Tribulation.  A pastor replied that “parts of the Old Covenant would be in force during the Tribulation.”  When asked where in the Bible it says that Jesus’ sacrifice will be overturned and the Old Covenant restored, the pastor asked “Where in my reply do you see all of that?”  When pointed to his “parts of the Old Covenant would be in force” and asked what that could possibly mean, the man basically changed the subject.

The man never even realized what he was saying.  Compromise is extremely deceptive and insidious.

Christians were warned that, in the end times, apostasy would flourish among those with Christ on their lips.

“When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.”
Luke 13:25-17

“Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?”
Matthew 7:22

Removing of the Lampstand: When and How the Apostasy

“Therefore you shall have night without vision, and you shall have darkness without divination; the sun shall go down on the prophets, and the day shall be dark for them.”

Micah 3:6

Revelation recounts the church at Laodicea, which thought it was doing God’s work.

The Laodiceans didn’t arrive at their infamous condition overnight.  Since the church was not completely dead in Revelation 3, there surely were those along the way who tried to warn the Laodicean church.  It wasn’t that the Laodicean Church was wicked–far from it.  It was that this Church made so many compromises with the world, it was hard to distinguish it from the world.

Most likely, compromise wasn’t even recognized by the Laodiceans as such while it was occurring–which is why it took a warning from Jesus to call it to their attention.

History tells us that not even a warning from Jesus Himself could save the Laodicean church.

The Muslim Turks captured Laodicea in 1119. The city itself was destroyed in the 13th century during the Turk and Mongol invasions.

What will save the individual from apostasy?  Paul has one answer.

“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.”
1 Corinthians 2:2

Apostasy is not coming. Apostasy is not imminent.

Apostasy is here, in the New Age Laodicean Church of Joel Osteen’s America.

And truly, what’s most tragic about the whole situation is that those dancing around appear completely unaware of the golden calf in the room.

Bridal Eschatology – Initially, apostasy and false prophets are only concepts when reading about them.  However, when someone one knows mentions that a friend of theirs is entangled in IHOP and its unbiblical teachings, the concepts become more immediate.  When others one knows begin repeatedly to use the terminology, it becomes more immediate still.

What’s the solution?

The Bible offers rebuke in love and prayer.

“Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.”
Proverbs 9:8

In these last days, rebuke and reproof are almost universally rejected by those professing Jesus Christ.  That leaves earnest, effectual prayer in the name of Jesus.

And so that is where one place one’s faith in these times in which we live.

Irrefutable evidence of Nephilim Giants & Huge compilation of Nephilim in the News!!! – Proof that
1- Not all end times deception comes from the ministers of righteousness working in the Modern American Prophecy Industry;
2- Those who are deceived contribute at least as much to the mix as those knowingly engaging in the deception;
3- There are still those few who believe that excitement lacking in a story can be generated by adding exclamation marks to the end of a headline; and,
4- There isn’t enough time in the day to address all of the deceptions coming from professed Christian sources.  Forget the world; it’s those who profess Jesus Christ as Savior who are the main conduits of apostasy during the times in which we live.

This last point is probably the most saddening and disturbing of all with which this writer has to deal.

“We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.”
Acts 14:22
