End Times Church, End Times State: One Beast to Rule Them All

CHURCH AND STATE: Church and State will be on in the end times--and the people will worship the dragon. — **CHURCH AND STATE**: Church and State will be one in the end times–and the people will worship the dragon.

THE BLENDING OF CHURCH AND STATE

The poor, deceived American church-goers are being set up for an end times fall. But, the vast majority would not have it any other way.

“The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?”
—Jeremiah 5:31

The Bible says that the end times is a time of great deception–and this is demonstrated no better than in the apostate churches.

So, how are the apostates being set up?

Several ways. Here are just a few.

“In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.”
—2 Corinthians 4:4

The pew-sitters are fed a constant media diet about the “godless government.” Their reaction is: We need to get a god back into government. The Bible says that the government and the church will be one and they will both bow down to a god–the prince of this world: Satan.
The media ceaselessly promotes fears of Islam and “Muslim terrorists;” these are preparing Americans for something which will war against Islam–and will be far worse.
Americans are fed a steady entertainment/media smorgasbord of stories demonstrating that the USA is “turning its back on God.” News Flash: the USA long ago turned its back on God Almighty–if ever it did more than merely give him lip service.

A Mixing of Church and State that Atheists Can’t Stop – The Corporate Media (Satan’s Mouthpiece) is relentlessly fretting over the state “taking religion out of the public square” or some such nonsense. (Notice that they NEVER use the words “Jesus Christ” when they do their fretting.)

In the very near future, the Bible warns that the church and state will be one–and it will be under the control of the man of sin while worshiping the dragon. The entire earth–minus a few of the saints who are still alive–will worship the dragon (Satan).

“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 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. 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 13:4, 7-8

All of those people who claim they want more of “god” in the government will be getting their wishes. Some have secretly worked to achieve what will be an end times nightmare; others will have been deceived in following along. There will be one church, one state, and it will all be the same for the entire world: one big beast system celebrating the dragon and the man of sin–with the World’s Most Christian Nation™ leading the cheers.

It matters not that the people will be deceived into believing they worship God Almighty. God’s Word commands believers to “Take heed” and be not deceived.

The Bible also warns believers to “Watch.” Jesus sounded many warnings as well.

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

Yes, there are those in the churches who are deceived–but the churches are also full of deceivers.

End Times Apostasy: Counterfeit Christians have Infiltrated the Churches

In the end, it matters not whether one is deceived or deceiving. Both end up in the same place.

“Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.”
–Matthew 15:14

END TIMES PREPARATION

1 – IF the reader is still in a church, beware of imposters.

“But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. “
—2 Timothy 3:13

2- So many desire a list of things they should do. So here’s a list of the things to prepare for what’s coming.

Pray for wisdom.
Pray for discernment.
Pray for the lost.
Be obedient.
Share the gospel.
Perhaps most importantly: pray not to be deceived.
Concentrate on the GOSPEL–not some man-created sinner’s prayer or man-created altar call. It is not you or your ritual which does the saving–it is God in His grace and mercy. And God saves using the gospel message.

“But we preach Christ crucified”
—1 Corinthians 1:23

“For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.”
—1 Corinthians 1:21

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:”
-–1 Corinthians 15:1-4 – (h/t:B)

Hunger USA: Tougher to be Poor in America

SCARCITY OF FOOD: And there was a great famine in Samaria: — **SCARCITY OF FOOD:** And there was a great famine in Samaria:

SHUNNING THE POOR

“For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:“

“Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?“

“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
—Matthew 25:35, 37, 40

It’s getting tougher to be poor in the World’s Most Christian Country™.

STUDY: Almost a quarter of American families have turned to church food pantries for help – And more urban churches are shutting down their food pantries according to both media reports AND this writer’s personal experience. A variety of reasons have been given for the closures, but it all adds up to one thing: there is less food available through non-governmental channels for those who need it.

Even through governmental channels, less help is available. The heavily-criticized food stamp program has cut back benefits and further cuts will supposedly help offset costs for such things as ObamaCare and Michelle O’s eat healthy programs.

Add to this the number of cities which have passed laws making it a crime for individuals to feed the homeless (while most media have focused attention on a Ft Lauderdale, FL case, Philadelphia and other cities have also passed such laws), and the supply of food to those least able to afford it has been tightening.

One more disturbing trend: in the USA, many feel that “Someone will take care of the poor.”

Someone else.

“He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor.“
—Proverbs 14:31

Meanwhile, the Corporate Media in general–and the conservative Corporate Media in particular–churns out a steady stream of “Everyone who needs help from the government are lazy bums.”

Never mind that many of these people worked for years and paid taxes which supported these programs.

The articles appeal to self, pride and vanity–surely a few of the devil’s go-to sins in tempting man.

“Come on! Take a little pride in yourself! Where’s your self-esteem?”

The main point of many of these media pieces is to create among those who still have a grudge against those who have not. Which is unfortunate–since most of the American middle class will be disappearing soon and, one suspects, will be in need of help.

It reminds this writer (especially since the Christmas season has recently passed) of the tale of Ebenezer Scrooge.

First Collector: At this festive time of year, Mr. Scrooge, it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the poor and destitute.
Ebenezer Scrooge: Are there no prisons?
First Collector: Plenty of prisons.
Scrooge: And the union workhouses – are they still in operation?
First Collector: They are. I wish I could say they were not.
Scrooge: Oh, from what you said at first I was afraid that something had happened to stop them in their useful course. I’m very glad to hear it.
First Collector: I don’t think you quite understand us, sir. A few of us are endeavoring to buy the poor some meat and drink, and means of warmth.
Scrooge: Why?
First Collector: Because it is at Christmastime that want is most keenly felt, and abundance rejoices. Now what can I put you down for?
Scrooge: Huh! Nothing!
Second Collector: You wish to be anonymous?
Scrooge: [firmly, but calmly] I wish to be left alone. Since you ask me what I wish sir, that is my answer. My taxes help to support the establishments I have named; those who are badly off must go there.
First Collector: Many can’t go there–and many would rather die.
Scrooge: Well, if they would rather die, perhaps they’d better do so. And, uh, decrease the surplus population.

A FEW OBSERVATIONS

1 Scarcity of food is one of the signs of the end times.

“And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.“

“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 6:5-6, 8

2 Whether the reader has abundance or scarcity, don’t concentrate on food alone.

“And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.”
—Luke 4:4

3 “Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”
—2 Corinthians 9:7

4 Don’t forget what the sins of Sodom were.

“Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.”
—Ezekiel 16:49

Sound like any country with which the reader is familiar?

And OPINION

===INTERNATIONAL

FRANCE: France hunting possible “accomplices” to Paris attack – This appears to be the cycle of control: a terror attack, the public fears the aftermath of the terror attack and then the government hunts the “accomplices”–and the public will fear what the authorities find in their OJ-like hunt for the “real killers.”

FRANCE: Charlie Hebdo publishes Mohammed cartoons – You have to hand it to the mystery of iniquity. Not only did they come up with a script which makes the Corporate Media look heroic, but they also figured out a way to do it while they were escalating the anti-Muslim propaganda war in France.

FRANCE: Conspiracy theories about Russian and Turkish involvement in Paris attacks increase – This is what a REAL conspiracy theory looks like: a government-generated story to shift blame onto someone other than the perpetrators.

CUBA: Cuba has freed all 53 prisoners from the US deal

HAITI: Five Years After The Haiti Earthquake: Protests, Voodoo And Rock And Roll

ISIS: ISIS hacks Pentagon Social Media? – “Let’s hack the evil American military’s Twitter account!”

That’s the story. Of course, this is ludicrous. This storyline only makes sense as propaganda. How to make ISIS the bad guy in the minds of millions of zoned-out young Americans under the influence of the ubiquitous anti-depressants (who do not much pay attention to regular news about the Islamic State)?

Hey! How about a “hack” of Pentagon? How about a “hack” of Pentagon social media?

Brilliant!

ISIS: The CENTCOM ‘Hack’ That Wasn’t – Apparently, this was a story was was too hard for even the mystery of iniquity to pull off.

GERMANY: PM Merkel says Islam belongs to all of Germany – How better to foster resentment than to identify something as being favored by political hacks. This is true in almost every country. It appeals to the almost-universal state of rebellion against authority which is now in the world.

“For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.”
—1 Samuel 15:23

USA’s War Against the Muslims: Almost Time

===NATIONAL

Dept of Homeland Security to ramp up random inspections at airports amid Paris attacks – Of course.

Despite renewed economic confidence, few happy about a gas tax hike – The schemes to separate the American middle class from its $$$ will continue–until there is no longer a taxable middle class.

Protestors at Clinton Foundation: Where’s the missing Haiti money?

Americans don’t want a ground war against ISIS – Since when does it matter what the little guy wants?

“There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion.”
–Winston Churchill

As a member in good standing of the mystery of iniquity, Churchill would have known.

TED CRUZ: No need for mushy middle in 2016 – Yes, 2016 will be about giving Americans a VERY CLEAR choice of selections in the GOP. Either it will be very liberal or very hard-core conservative (though Americans will later wonder how so many “liberal” ideas progressed under such a hard-core conservative president). Readers can guess which will be triumphant.

Americans will then have no reason to complain when that particular hammer comes down hard on them.

And really: that is the beauty of the American system. The deceived believe they are choosing a choice which has already been made for them. And by believing it is THEIR own choice, they feel they have a stake in the success of policies which are ultimately bad for them.

Senate votes to move Keystone forward with 9 Democratic votes – It’s been a done deal for a long time. IF the mystery of iniquity would blow up oil-loaded trains in order to highlight to the public the “dangers of transporting petroleum by rail,” there was no way the Keystone was not going to be built–all of the political theater in Washington DC to the contrary.

Mitch McConnell ready to work with Obama – AS IF. What would the reader call what has been happening the last six years of the Obama administration?

Paul Ryan Won’t Run For President In 2016 – Wasn’t in the script.

“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

THE GOSPEL

===MISCELLANEOUS

Great Tribulation: Periods of Time in Revelation VS Claims of Man

(VIDEO) Fast Diesel Trains – (h/t:F) 15 minutes of fast diesel trains. Trains at night, trains during the day: lots of trains.

This season’s fashion: facial Lego? – Lego has been paying a lot of $$$ to get it’s name in news stories over the last several years. Even the stories of the ridiculous are useful as PR–as long as they spell LEGO’S right.

FRANKLIN GRAHAM: America’s embrace of the culture of death stems from its sinful godless worldview – The Grahams, both father and son, would certainly know a thing or two about sinful godless worldviews.

Oil prices fall to lowest since ’09 – Live it up while it lasts! Oh, and watch for big increases in food and taxes while it does.

OSCAR WILDE

“The secret of life is to appreciate the pleasure of being terribly, terribly deceived.”
— Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde–like all “greats” of literature promoted by the world–was a tool of the mystery of iniquity. Wilde’s real importance to literature was that he was one of those who say what many are thinking. Wilde also played the “Sin is wit” (the forerunner of today’s “Sin is funny”) game.

If anyone wonders about how public figures become public, here is an interesting line from Widle’s bio.

“After university…Wilde…lectured in the United States and Canada on the new “English Renaissance in Art”, and then returned to London where he worked prolifically as a journalist. Known for his biting wit, flamboyant dress and glittering conversation, Wilde became one of the best-known personalities of his day.”

A guy who had no claim to fame or visible accomplishments lands a lecture tour of the USA? How exactly does that happen?

Probably the same way a 21-year-old Barack Obama ends up in Pakistan in the early ’80s at the estate of one of the country’s wealthiest families, bird-hunting with the future president and PM of Pakistan.

The world is all about appearances. Those who are most concerned with appearances are the minions of iniquity.Here are a few quotes which shed some rare light on what the world really thinks about sin–and on the world’s life of illusion which it pulls over the eyes of the deceived.

“The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful.” —Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“Disobedience, in the eyes of any one who has read history, is man’s original virtue. It is through disobedience that progress has been made, through disobedience and through rebellion.” —Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

“Any preoccupation with ideas of what is right and wrong in conduct shows an arrested intellectual development.” —Oscar Wilde, Phrases and Philosophies for the Use of the Young

False Choices: The Corporate Media Provides Two Choices to Complex Questions

CNN to use reporter drones? – The campaign to humanize spying drones continues.

People are so deceived, so surrounded by sin, they will celebrate the spying which enables their slavery.

“Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.”
—John 8:34

People not only love their servitude, they love the deception which makes their servitude 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.

The Corporate Media

What is Media Mush?

Why English, Not Mandarin, Is The Language of Innovation

What makes Muslims laugh? – AS IF we were dealing with subhumans…

Living Drones – Honeybees are not drones in the now-popular sense of the word.

White House plans to close Gitmo faces long odds – Let’s see, didn’t Obama promise hist supporters to close Gitmo back in 2008? And what is it today? That’s right: 2015. This story is for all of the deceived Obama-ites who believed Obama was going to fulfill his promises to them. They are like the deceived Republican voters who believe that the GOP is going to repeal ObamaCare.

Who Carries Around Wads Of $100s? – Hey, it’s CASH, right? No one needs untrackable, spendable cash.

Of course, ever consider: “What if cash IS trackable?”

All of the new cash with the “counterfeit countermeasures“? The “security strip” on new US bills?

…Just a thought…
