EVIL MEN EXALTED BY THE WORLD: Deceived and deceiving.
“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
The end times are a time full of deception and deception surrounds us on every side, thus being one confirmation of the times in which we live.
One place where deception lies thickest is among the multitude of people who know not much, maybe a little bit about the Bible.
Another place which suffocates under end times deception is the churches.
Finally, deception especially surrounds the poor workers of iniquity.
But the multitudes of people who don’t know the Bible don’t care to know the Bible. Otherwise, they would study it.
They are the most deceived of all: in the business of deceiving other people, they perhaps wallow in more deception than their unwary targets.
“But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”
—2 Timothy 3:13
THE PERFECT STORM OF DECEPTION
The perfect storm of deception: where the multitudes of deceived people, the counterfeit churches (which await the man of sin) and the deceived and deceiving workers of iniquity all intersect is in the person of the “man of God” who is exalted by the world.
Such as Billy Graham.
What Jesus said:
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
—John 14:6
Followers of Jesus Christ claim a belief that—today and for the past 2,000 years—has raised eyebrows and caused others to ask, “really?”
The belief that Jesus Christ is the only way to obtain salvation, the one way to find God, the single way to receive eternal life can confuse or concern people. It can seem limited or judgmental, and it leaves out the countless other beliefs that billions around the world ascribe to.
Who is one to believe: Jesus or Billy Graham?
HERE’S A CLUE: ANY man exalted by the world as a “man of God” is NOT.
“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.”
—John 15:19
Get that?
“The world would love its own.”
The world will not exalt a true man of God: the world HATES the true man of God. The world only loves its own: the world will only promote the counterfeit and fake man of God.
Billy Graham is not a man of God: he is deceived and deceiving. By his own words (more than once), he has declared Jesus is not the only way to heaven.
That is the declaration of a non-Christian.
But Billy Graham is far from the only deceiver who is himself deceived: he is merely one of the best known.
There are hundreds, thousands, of such folk. Many man the airwaves of “Christian TV;” some work the pulpits of local churches; while others roam the land as “evangelists” (spreading other gospels).
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”
—Matthew 7:15
IF THE WORLD EXALTS SOMEONE AS A MAN OF GOD: HE IS NOT.
The Bible warns of false apostles, deceitful workers, evil men, wolves in sheep’s clothing, seducers, ministers of Satan: all pretending to be something they are not.
The Bible also warns of the deception which is prevalent in the end times.
Together, they make the perfect storm of deception.
Only the Holy Spirit can guide someone through such spiritual darkness to the truth.
“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.”
—John 16:13
“And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.”
—John 14:16-17
Do you have the Holy Spirit?
He is essential for the times in which we live.
Do not be deceived by the fake man of God; by the evil men and seducers; by the false apostles and deceitful workers.
“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 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
“Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.”
—Proverbs 16:5
[A few observations about the sin of pride and living in a land which celebrates that particular sin every day until it is no longer recognized as sin.]
Pride is a sin: there’s no doubt about it.
EXCEPT in the Land of the Free (“The World’s Most Christian Country Ever!™”) which specializes in turning sin into something morally good and desirable.
Pride surrounds Americans. Everyone seems to be proud of something and many proclaim their sin by posting signs in their yards or hanging a banner.
Many trumpet their pride in their various and sundry sports teams.
This is the time when various sports seasons are winding to a close. And it is very common to hear throughout the Land of the Free, proclamations of the sin of Pride.
It seems that end times coaches are required to proclaim their pride: in their teams, their kids, their efforts.
Whatever.
One cannot read the sports pages without reading of pride and how proud everyone seems to be. When the topic turns to local high school sports, coaches are NEVER ashamed of their pride, but tell everyone (even those who do not follow their teams).
It’s all about giving voice to how proud they are.
Pride is a sin.
But America is a land which specializes in turning vice into virtue.
“God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.”
—James 4:6
It seems no group is more proud or proclaims their pride more loudly than the churches.
We are very proud of the history of the people who helped get this church started back in 1923. We are also very proud of the pastors and their families who brought the message of Jesus to us during the times they were here as God’s servants.
Pride is a sin.
Even if the churches declare otherwise.
Providing cover for the churches are the “discernment ministries” which have no discernment ( because they don’t have the Holy Spirit; because they are mouthpieces for the mystery of iniquity).
One site (which claims to answer readers’ questions based on the Bible) had this to say about the sin of pride.
There is a difference between the kind of pride that God hates (Proverbs 8:13) and the kind of pride we feel about a job well done.
Not just wrong, but absurdly wrong.
Pride in a “job well done” IS pride. It is giving praise to oneself instead of God.
The Bible says that Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar took pride in a job well done. Nebuchadnezzar praised himself instead of God.
It was Nebuchadnezzar’s pride in a job well done that directly led to God taking his mind away for seven years while giving him the mind of a beast.
“All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar. At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon. The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty? While the word was in the king’s mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee. And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will. The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws.”
—Daniel 4:28:33
“A job well done.”
Americans sin and their churches and “Bible answers” websites tell them they do not sin.
“that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world”
—Revelation 12:9
“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”
—Proverbs 16:18
Pride was the first sin, leading directly to the downfall of Lucifer.
“Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.”
—Ezekiel 28:15
Lucifer (like modern man) imagined himself the equal or better of God.
“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.”
—Isaiah 14:12-15
Lucifer’s five “I will“s (in which he exalted himself instead of God) were his sin. It’s been said that the shortest definition of sin is “I will.”
“Thus saith the LORD, Even the carcases of men shall fall as dung upon the open field…and none shall gather them. Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.”
—Jeremiah 9:22-24
“When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.”
—Proverbs 11:2
Pride is a sin.
Pride has always been a sin.
Pride will always be a sin.
It doesn’t matter if everyone in the land is proud of their pride.
Pride is still a sin.
While God hates all sin, he particularly hates the sin of pride in which man exalts himself instead of God, who created man.
Many of God’s judgments in the end times will be because of the sin of pride. God will judge the proud and He will recompense.
“And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.”
—Jeremiah 50:32
Are you proud?
What do you have to be proud of?
God gave each and every person everything that person has.
“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. ”

“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.”

I blame the moderators [for the problems] because it started on the very first question. “This series of debates is essentially a job interview with the American people. And in any job interview, you get asked what your biggest weakness is. So in 30 seconds, what is your biggest weakness, and what are you doing to address it?” Yes, they opened with the one question that no one in human history has ever answered honestly.
In fact, when I interviewed for this job, I said my biggest weakness was sometimes I work so hard I forget to cash my paychecks.
–Stephen Colbert
Carly Fiorina said that after the previous debate, people told her that she needed to smile more. They were like, “Just pretend you’re laying off a bunch of people.”

Rubio and Cruz atop the GOP – It’s almost time for the Corporate Media to begin moving Ted Cruz up through the pack.
Jeb team’s chief operating officer quits – It’s time for those who previously were labeled “heavyweights” to suffer from events which signal that they are falling by the wayside.
“Analysts are saying that after last night’s dismal performance at the debate, Jeb Bush’s donors are in “full panic mode.” Apparently, last night Jeb Bush called his two biggest donors and said, “Calm down, Mom and Dad.”

“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.”

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 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.”

Giants like Google and Facebook are ramping up their use and development of so-called machine learning, a type of artificial intelligence that leverages data and algorithms to allow computers to make predictions.
“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.
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. If any man have an ear, let him hear.”
—Revelation 13: 5-9
This is the only end times “revival” the Bible declares will happen.
“There are reports that a movie is in the works based on the game Monopoly. They say the movie will be just like the game because it’s four hours long and it ends with your family fighting.”
–Jimmy Fallon
“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. ALL political “news” is narrative.
Many people believe they are tempted by Satan and if they can escape the clutches of the devil, then they are headed to heaven.
Not so fast.
The Bible declares that Satan has a few powerful allies in the battle between good and evil: the flesh and the world.
The flesh is that bundle of appetites which every human has (which are perfectly okay IF the person can keep perfect control of his appetites and lusts), which constantly tempt humans to “overdo it” whatever “it” happens to be: eating, drinking, sexual activity.
Satan’s other ally is the world.
The Bible contains many warnings about the evil and wickedness which is in ‘the world.’
What is ‘the world?’
What does the Bible say about it?
What can a person do to escape the snares which the world lays for the unwary?
THE WORLD
46 Bible verses.
That’s pretty much the extent of the information on “the world” which the Bible contains. Most of this information is in the New Testament. Most of this New Testament information is concentrated in the gospel (especially the 17th chapter) and first epistle of John.
Many teachers explain the world as “the world system.” And that’s partially true.
But the world also contains the appetites of the flesh as well as the many blandishments the world uses to get people to commit to sin: pride, greed, covetousness, blasphemy, envy and all the rest.
“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”
—1 John 2:16
The world contains all of the kingdoms and governments of the world. And the world uses the power and fame that comes with controlling those governments as powerful temptations to do evil.
“Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;”
—Matthew 4:8
THE BASICS
The world is a bad place.
Basically, the world is evil and attempt to trap the unwary into sin and the death such sin brings.
The world is under the sway of evil (not the evil one, as the apostates teach).
“And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.”
—1 John 5:19
There is NO compromise with the world and its ways: one is either for God or one is for the world. There is no reconciling these two polar opposites, as many American churches teach.
“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”
—1 John 2:15
A person has to make a choice: either submit to God or submit to the world;
Though modern American life (the epitome of the world) makes turning one’s back on the world appear to be unreasonable or even insane.
The choice: either friendship with God OR friendship with the world.
It’s one or the other, not both.
“Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.”
—James 4:4
THE WAYS OF THE WORLD
God sent Jesus into the world in order to give the men who believed a way out of the world and into eternal life.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
—John 3:16-17
The gift of eternal life is the most precious gift of all–even if most men do not realize the value of this gift.
All with eternal life will live forever, while the world (which provided the temptations which dragged so many to their eternal destruction), will pass away.
“And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”
—1 John 2:17
During the time Jesus was on earth, He said He was “THE light of the world”: lighting the way for men to come out of the darkness and be saved.
“Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”
—John 8:12
“As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
—John 9:5
“I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.”
—John 12:46-47
After Jesus was put to death, believers in Jesus (who are assured of life eternal) are said to be “thelight of the world.”
“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.”
—Matthew 5:14
“That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; “
—Philippians 2:15
In fact, believers are sent into this world to provide it with a light.
“As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.”
—John 17:18
But the world LIKES its sin.
The world enjoys its evil.
The world needs the darkness.
“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.”
—John 3:19
Because most men prefer sin to righteousness (regardless of what words come out of their mouths), the world hated Jesus.
“The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.”
—John 7:7
When Jesus spoke these words to the apostles, the Holy Spirit had not yet come. After Jesus left, the Holy Spirit came to every true believer.
“And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.”
—John 14:16-17
The Holy Spirit is the opposite of the spirit of the world: the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God.
“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.”
—1 Corinthians 2:7
Because believers now had the Holy Spirit, the world hates them as it hated Jesus.
“Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.”
—1 John 3:13
“I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.”
—John 17:14
“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.”
—John 15:19
“If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.”
—John 15:18
Even though the world hates believers, Jesus assured the believer he has reason to celebrate.
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
—John 16:33
One of the reason believers have victory over the world is they have peace–even surrounded by wickedness. While the wicked know no peace and are quite familiar with fear, the believer has peace.
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
—John 14:27
Jesus is of heaven and of God: He was/is not of this world.
“He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.”
—John 1:10
As Jesus was not of this world, so too believers are not of this world.
“They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.”
—John 17:16
“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.”
—1 John 3:1
But one of the ways a believer can tell if someone is a counterfeit or not is their actions.
Do they value the things of God? Or do they value the things of the world? Does the world listen to them? If the world listens to them, they are of the world, not God.
“They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 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 4:5-6
The fake TV preachers are heard of the world. The phoney “great men of God” whom the world exalts are not men of God. If they were, the world would hate them, not give them honor.
The worldling can repeat over and over “I love Jesus.” But it’s just so many empty words. The believer can tell the difference. But there’s not many believers, so the counterfeit Christians get away with their fake “I love Jesus” act 99 times out of 100.
True Christians know the difference because they have the Holy Spirit and because they obey the command to test every 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
Finally, believers share the gospel. The world hates the gospel and will do anything to avoid it.
That’s one reason the apostate churches DO NOT preach the gospel.
They talk about the gospel.
They chatter about salvation.
They have substitutes to the gospel.
They offer empty prayers and rituals.
They blabber on about ‘discipleship.’
But they are of the world, so they will not preach the gospel as commanded.
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”
—Mark 16:15
The saints will judge the world which once hated them.
“Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?”
—1 Corinthians 6:2
Finally, God will punish the world.
And the world will be found wanting.
“And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.”
—Isaiah 13:11
Do you want judgment or eternal life?
It doesn’t matter if you believe in judgment by God or not, it will happen.
And every man has enough faith to KNOW it will happen–even if he tries to suppress that faith.
“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 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

—2 Corinthians 7:10
“Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.”
—2 Peter 1:4
“For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.”
—2 Peter 2:20-21
“But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.”
—1 Corinthians 11:32

—1 John 4:4

—Revelation 12:11)
“Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. “

“Analysts are speculating that Donald Trump is losing the support of evangelical Christians. That’s right — people who believe the Earth is only 6,000 years old are starting to think Donald Trump is ridiculous.”

GOP Debate: We have our final six – The Corporate Media goes through the motions of presenting “choices” for presidential elections.
THEN, it spends over a year convincing Americans they have picked the winner and losers. This allows the ‘losers’ to drop out and the Corporate Media supplies the narratives (lies) for why the candidates either won or lost.
By the time the primaries arrive, the field is down to a LOT less candidates than at the beginning (when there was no voting taking place; that’s why the media starts the election coverage so early).

Actually, the real surprise is that most Americans don’t believe it goes any deeper than what they read in their newspaper.

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 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
Taking political and/or spiritual stands in these last days which are backed by the mystery of iniquity and Satan’s Mouthpiece (the Corporate Media) is neither brave nor heroic.
“Yesterday, Donald Trump told the crowd in Iowa, “I am a great Christian.” If you have to tell people you’re a great Christian, you might not be a great Christian. Jesus said it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God. Which is why Donald Trump is now currently working on plans to build an enormous needle.”
–Jimmy Kimmel
“Ben Carson’s strongest support comes from evangelical Christians, a group that Donald Trump has had real trouble with, evidently. People who read the Bible just don’t want to follow someone who looks that much like a golden calf.”
–Stephen Colbert
The trouble is that all broadcasts are subject to the inverse square law: every time you double the distance from the source, the signal strength falls to a quarter.
As a consequence, any signals not specifically directed at us, travelling thousands of light-years, would be so weak by the time they reached Earth they would be lost in the background noise of the Universe. No amount of computer processing could extract those signals from the noise.
This is one reason why NASA isn’t getting any signals or photos or anything from a space craft supposedly 2760-3627 million miles away from the earth.
Behind razor wire and locked metal doors, hundreds of men waited on a recent morning to be counted, part of the daily routine inside a remote facility here that was built based on a design for a prison.
But this is not a prison, and most of these men — rapists, child abusers and other sex offenders — have completed their sentences. They are being held here indefinitely under a policy known as civil commitment, having been deemed “sexually dangerous” or “sexual psychopathic personalities” by courts.

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. ALL political “news” is narrative.

Catherine Monvoisin known as “La Voisin” (English: The Neighbor) (c. 1640 – February 22, 1680), was a French fortune teller, poisoner and an alleged sorceress, one of the chief personages in the affaire des poisons, during the reign of Louis XIV. Her cult (Affair of the Poisons) was suspected to have killed anywhere between 1000-2500 people in Black Masses.
Not all dogs go to heaven – This is more a discussion of various philosophies, particularly Greek, and not the Bible.
Still, it’s surprising how many people are more concerned for their dog than they are for their human family.
Halo, the $330 million airship of the future – 20 bedrooms, a swimming pool and a ballroom.
According to the 1864 miscellany Chambers Book of Days (a genuinely brilliant breakdown of fact, trivia, and history across a calendar year), apple bobbing has long been associated with predictions of future love, summoning a husband, and celebrating female fertility.
“And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.
And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.”
—Mark 5:1-17
However, the mystery of iniquity (and Satan’s Mouthpiece, the Corporate Media) will insist ‘mental illness’ is a physical problem.

SECRET HISTORY: Originally, secret histories were designed as non-fictional, revealing or claiming to reveal the truth behind the “spin”: one such example is the Secret History of the Mongols. Secret histories can range from standard historical revisionism with proper critical reexamination of historical facts to negative historical revisionism wherein facts are deliberately omitted, suppressed or distorted.
The description of what took place that evening in the royal court at Babylon is the subject of Daniel 5.
The Babylonian king was making merry while desecrating the vessels of the temple in Jerusalem carried away when the Babylonians conquered Judah.
“Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
In the same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote. Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spake, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Then came in all the king’s wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation thereof. Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonied.
Now the queen, by reason of the words of the king and his lords, came into the banquet house: and the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed: There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers; Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.
Then was Daniel brought in before the king. And the king spake and said unto Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, which art of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Jewry?
And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour: And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down.
But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him: And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.
And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this; But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified: Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.
And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain. And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.”

1390 – First trial for witchcraft in Paris leading to the death of three people.
1618 – English adventurer, writer, and courtier Sir Walter Raleigh is beheaded for allegedly conspiring against James I of England.
Raleigh was a favorite of Queen Elizabeth I. Obviously, the favor did not extend to James.
The death of McKinley cleared the way for media creation Theodore Roosevelt to take over the U.S. presidency.
Czolgosz was executed 39 days after McKinley died.
All of the presidential assassins have died very quickly after they performed their deed.
History has many times recorded the wisdom of “Dead men tell no tales.”
1929 – The New York Stock Exchange crashes in what will be called the Crash of ’29 or “Black Tuesday”, ending the Great Bull Market of the 1920s and beginning the Great Depression.
It was only in the USA, the capital of capitalism, that the financial woes of 1929 were known as the Great Depression.
The rest of the world recovered in a few years.

1969 – The first-ever computer-to-computer link is established on ARPANET, the precursor to the Internet.
The Internet is one of the premier data-gathering tools ever invented.
Do not let anyone persuade the reader that “They are going to shut down the Internet.”
That would be like saying “They are going to shut down wire taps.”
