The Leaven of Politics, War and Patriotism

One bad thread of leaven in the Church will pollute the pure gospel of Jesus Christ. That bad thread could be politics, Patriotism, love of money and material gain, the philosophies of Man etc.

"All it takes is one bad thread to ruin the entire fabric"
"We weave Man's authority into God's and the Church is corrupted"
Michael Sattler talking about mixing the sword of Politics, War and Government with the pure gospel of Jesus Christ

 
"The Radicals"

That's why I don't get involved in Politics in as much as supporting parties or causes and even voting. The Visible Church has proven time and again that it can't handle the power that comes with State Government when it has it in it's hands. They end up persecuting those they deem heretics. I will simply wait for Jesus to come back and reign with him a thousand years in his perfect government.

Revelation 20:6
"Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years."

 

The Protestant reformation didn't go nearly far enough in breaking away from the false teachings and doctrines of the Catholic Church. In fact, the Protestants quickly used the same means that Rome used in quieting dissenters. They used the force of the State Government to persecute true Bible believing brethren such as the Anabaptists by arresting those who baptized adults and eventually killing those who joined the Anabaptists. This type of persecution by So called Christians is unbiblical no matter who the persecution is against whether muslim, buddhist etc. Take John Calvin for instance, having Michael Servetus killed for differing beliefs. That was Calvin's moment of apostasy. No where did Jesus or his apostles advocate picking up the literal or political sword against those who they disagreed with.

Those who draw the sword die by the sword. We as Christians are not to pick up the sword of war. Can you imagine being a Christian from say America and going to war with another country say China and then being asked to kill a fellow Christian by your unbelieving commanding officer. The Body of Christ knows no national borders and are brother/sister hood is international (worldwide) not National. Our fellow citizens here in U.S. are not our Brothers and sisters unless ofcourse they are Born Again. Our Brothers and Sisters are those in Christ no matter what country they reside in and our loyalty after our Lord of course is to them not to those who happen to live here in U.S but are unbelievers or even to the Flag. So when asked to kill a fellow Christian from another country in the name of war and Patriotism do obey Man or God? If we are soldiers for Christ then what do we have to do with the affairs of the world?

Phillipians 3:20
"For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ"
 "The Church was built on suffering not revolt"

"The Radicals"

Freedom is an internal state not an external one. Even if we continue to lose our freedoms here in USA as Christians we are still free in Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:2
"For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death."

Galatians 5:1
"Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." 

Random Thoughts

Resting in the Lord and doing his work

Exodus 20:8-11



Good principle to apply in our lives today. Do not over work, get your rest so that weariness doesn't overcome you. In the parable of the sower and the seed, the cares of this world was one of the things that choked out the word of God in some people's lives. Over working easily has this effect on believers. Having gainful employment is good but when you become a slave to it that's when your walk with our Lord Jesus suffers. We can spend our whole lives striving for upward mobility in the Corporate world and striving to get the next degree in University. But what do those things contribute to doing the work of Preaching which we are all called to:

Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel in the Kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations and then the end will come."


Who is a faithful and wise servant?

Matthew 24: 44-51
Verse 45 says "Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? "
Pastors, Elders, Leaders in the Church,
Are you bringing your flocks in your charge Meat in due season? This would be the pure gospel of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of Heaven. Or, are you mixing the leaven of Patriotism, Politics, Social Justice, the Love of money and the love of this world and the Pride of life into the Gospel? Are you teaching your flocks to keep their eyes on the things of this world (politics is included in this) or on the Kingdom of Heaven?

Verse 48-51 says "But if that evil servant says in his heart, 'My master is delaying his coming', and begins to be beat his fellow servants, and to eat with and drink with the drunkards, "the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at, an hour that he is not aware of, "and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. "

Many Pastors/elders are beating and fleecing their flocks by putting burdens on them financially. Many of these Pastors then turn around and give themselves large incomes with many benefits that would make a congressman blush! This all while they have people in their fellowship that can barely make ends meet only to be guilted into following an Old testament command of tithing. Also these Pastors become preoccupied with building large plush and expensive "Houses of God" all the while not telling the people in the congregations that "We" the people are the "Church" ekklesia "called out ones" from the world. They fail to emphasize that we are the Temple of God and that there are no more Temples made with the hands of Man. They approve of expensive upgrades to their buildings and then put the burden on the flock to pay off the debt. They fail to tell Church that as Christians we are not to be in debt and that we are to be good stewards of our money. Sorry but purchasing an air conditioning unit that costs over $450,000 is not being a good steward of God's money.
Note in verse 49 where it says "fellow servants"

Pastors/elders are fellow servants with their flocks, they are not above them and they are not to be treated as some celebrity. If you see a Pastor that needs a bodyguard or security then you know you have a Man that is not a true servant of God. This man got confused and thought being a Pastor was some elevated position in the Church. If your Pastor cant mingle with the brethren after services and bear their burdens without you having to set up an appointment to meet with him then you have a Man that doesn't have a Pastors heart.

Note in verse 51, that these hypocrites (false Pastors, prophets and teachers) who fleece God's church will have a portion in the Lake of Fire where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. I hate to break it to you brethren but this applies to many of the So called leaders in today's American Laodicean Church. Be a Christian detective and test every spirit and all things. Test those who say they are apostles and are not and are liars, Jesus commends that type of testing as he did with the Church of Ephesus in Revelation 2:2. See, Jesus honors it when we just don't believe those who speak in God's name no matter how popular they are and no matter how many books they sell or how many radio shows they have or if they are on TV or if they fill large baseball stadiums.

Jude talks about these men that they are spots in our Love feasts, verse 12. They are clouds without water, again verse 12. They are Twice dead pulled up by the roots, again verse 12. Verse 13 confirms their destiny talked about in Matthew 24 : 51. Verse 13 in Jude talks about the blackness of darkness forever being reserved for them. Verse 4 says that they creep in unnoticed. You will say that they deny our Lord, many if today's false Pastors/teachers dont always deny our Lord in word (altho some do and many more deny his word in scripture) but they deny our Lord in their wicked actions. They also were marked out for condemnation long ago according to verse 4. Why does it surprise some people when some of our most popular Christian leaders are called out for being Wolves in sheep's clothing? Weren't we warned in scripture that the Devil disguises himself as an angel of light and that he has his Ministers that also disguise themselves as angels of light? What a ploy by the Satan, use the most loved Pastor's to bring in damnable heresies to the Church.




 Revelation 18:4 "And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues."


Joyfully enduring trials

Hebrews 10:34
"for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and enduring possession for yourselves in heaven"

Brethren, is this scripture applicable for today? I submit to you that it is. So when Christian bakers, photographers, florists lose their businesses and are persecuted for their convictions they ultimately need to accept the plundering of their goods joyfully. Instead of picking up the Political sword we as brothers and sisters in Christ need to supply these persecuted brethren with our abundance so that their Lack is supplied for.

2 Corinthians 8:14
"But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack-that there may be equality"

To much of today's Church if you told them that without mentioning it is scripture they would call you a socialist or communist. Truth is truth and scripture supercedes any political Doctrine or philosophy.

This is the responsibility of the local Church where these persecuted brethren fellowship. This is also scriptural. The question is, do we obey? The word of God also says that those who have material gain in this world and don't share with those brethren in need in their midst don't have the spirit of God in them. The problem is that many in today's Church have the "pick yourselves by the boot straps mentality" that the evil and ungodly republican and tea parties espouse. This however is not an ideal promoted in scripture. Yes we are to work for our food and God does not honor the lazy man and the democratic party is evil and ungodly as well.

Brethren,
Why are striving in the world of Politics? Is it because we are trying to make our lives here as Christians as comfy and easy as possible until our Lord comes in some unbiblical secret pre trib Rapture so that we don't have to go through the Tribulation? Do you ask yourselves why today's Church is so obsessed about not suffering persecution either here and now or in the 7 year antichrist reign? Just read the above Hebrews passage about accepting the plundering of their goods joyfully. Does that apply for today or just two thousand years ago? Just imagine the testimony to the world if these persecuted Christian businesses had that same attitude of joyfully accepting the sanctions against their businesses. However they have not done this as a whole and instead have taken up the Political sword to fight for their rights. Yet often times the Life of a Christian is doing the opposite and not fighting for your rights. I ask you brethren, is your Kingdom here on Earth or in Heaven where we have a more enduring possession?


Putting unbelieving Jewish Men and Women on a pedastol

Matthew 8: 10-12


Such faith the Centurion had, not even found in Israel. Read Jesus words in verse 11 and 12, clarifying that many Gentiles will sit in the Kingdom of Heaven with the Patriarchs and many unbelieving Jewish people would be cast into the Lake of Fire of eternal torment. Best thing we can do as believers is give Jewish people the Gospel. Once they reject it then we kick the dust off our feet and take the gospel elsewhere and not let our peace rest upon them. Is that not what our Savior Jesus Christ said to his disciples when he told them to go and preach in the villages? Pastors have no business inviting Messiah rejecting Jew's to speak from the Pulpits or inviting unbelieving IDF soldiers to speak from the Pulpits. Pastors are called to protect the Flock from anyone bringing a gospel other than the one delivered once for all to the Saints. The Fellowship of Believers is not to be used as a sounding board for Politics whether evil Right wing or evil Left Wing agendas.


J. Vernon McGee's poor attempt at proving that Pre Trib Rapture is Biblical
click on link below for you tube video

Total poor exegesis by J. Vernon McGee on Rapture teaching. This is why us Brothers and Sisters put our trust in Jesus and his word and not Man. You can't take scripture out of context to try in vain to prove a doctrine. Mr. McGee makes a lot of assumptions in this video on what certain scriptures mean, including 24 elders and letters to seven churches. Just read Revelation 12:7, antichrist given power to make war with Saints and overcome them. This is also mentioned in Da.iel 7:21. The Church is here for the Great Tribulation. Be prepared! Remember if the Church was to get raptured before tribulation then who are the Saints that the antichrist makes war against? The Bible is clear that Man doesn't repent of their evil works after trumpet judgments so how do Saint's just appear out of nowhere? Mr. McGee also stated that there would be no way for worldwide antisemitism if Church is here during tribulation. That is false, the Holocaust happened in Europe right under the Churches nose and they did nothing about it.

Also, Vernon McGee says that the Great Tribulation is also the Wrath of God which is not true as the Great Tribulation is from the Antichrist and the Wrath of God is of course from God. Yes we are not appointed to Wrath but we are going to go through the Tribulation if this all happens in our lifetime. He says that because we are saved by Grace that we can't go through the Great Tribulation yet can't give any scripture to support that statement. So how is it that we have Christians from middle east and Africa getting slaughtered on a daily basis? Where is their Grace?

Idol's

As Paul says, we glory in the Cross but I don't think we are to make a carved image or likeness of a Cross. It's what took place at the Cross that we glory not the Wooden Cross itself as an object. Also no Christian should have carved Images of Angels or Jesus.

Exodus 20: 4-5





Fear Mongering

Contrary to the hysterical commentaries by Conservative So called Christian Pastors and Leaders Islam is not taking over the United States. Muslims are just a pawn. Many Pastors are feeding into the hysteria without doing their research. What did Jesus say dont fear him who can kill the body but then can do nothing else but fear him who can kill body and cast soul into Hell. We are not to fear Muslims period. The enemy from within the Church is far more dangerous as it seeks to pervert the Gospel.

We remember! Greg Laurie's joining of Hands with the Great Whore of Babylon-The Catholic Church. The "We Accuse" series

It was July 6-10th, 2011,  Greg Laurie was part of an event called Lifefest in Oshkosh, Wisconsin where he conducted a Bible devotion prior to a Catholic Mass being held by Green Bay Catholic Bishop David Ricken.  A Joint worship service followed this with Laurie as well as Lincoln Brewster present.  Please see the below article regarding this from the Galatians 4 Blog. 


http://galatiansfour.blogspot.com/2011/07/lifest-christian-festival-with-rock.html



Although Online Discernment ministries covered this story,  it made nary a dent in the mainstream Christian conscience.  Even though this took place 4 and half years ago it is very important to keep this story fresh in light of the continued apostasy of the 501 C 3 Institutional Church.  Greg Laurie is one of the most influential Evangelical Pastors in America today. He has annual Crusades that fill up baseball stadiums and his name doesn't need to be said twice in order to be recognized by most Christians.  Also, there are sources that allege that Greg makes a pretty nice living off of the Gospel.

http://calvarychapelabuse.com/wordpress/big-christian-leaders-bigger-money-raul-ries-greg-laurie-bob-coy-franklin-graham-and-others-make-millions-serving-jesus-its-technically-legal-in-many-cases-but-is-it-moral/


So why is Greg, who is supposed to be a Shepherd that protects the flock of God under his care, participating in this type of ecumenical event?  Is it because he is trying to share the gospel with Catholic Bishop David Ricken?  If you believe that I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you!  These type of events with Pastor's/Priests of different faiths/denominations are usually mutual admiration societies.  Did Greg warn the Bishop that his Church is practicing Idolatry?  Not likely!  Did Greg tell the Bishop that his Church should be ashamed of themselves for the way they protected and paid pedophiles and still do?  Hardly!  Did Greg rebuke the Bishop for his Church's plundering of their peoples' hard earned money so that the Vatican can continue it's luxurious ways?  sadly, probably not! Did Greg rebuke the Bishop for the continued persecution of Born Again Christians by Catholics in some countries?  Highly unlikely! Did Greg preach a message of repentance to the Bishop warning him that he and his Church are in danger of eternal damnation unless they become Born Again?  I wouldn't hold my breath on that one!

So again, why this holding hands with the Great Whore of Babylon?  Could it be that Greg Laurie is being used by Satan to lead the precious flock of God down the road to Mystery Babylon with the end result bowing down to the Anti Christ, worshipping his image and taking his mark as caused by the False Prophet (America).

2 Corinthians 11:14-15
"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."

Could it be that Greg Laurie is a Deceiver in these last days?

2 Timothy 3:13

"But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived."

Did Jesus say it was okay for someone to deceive us as long as they were a celebrity Pastor with a huge following?

Matthew 4:4-5

"And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many."

Greg's fair speeches mean nothing if he is taking the sheep down the  Broad road of Destruction.

Ephesians 5:6

"Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience."

Greg Laurie also believes in the Pre Trib Rapture which will play a role in deceiving believers into accepting the Anti Christ and his mark thereby causing them to apostasize.

2nd Thessalonians 2:3

"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;"

Is it really righteous for Greg to join forces with a Church that practices Idolatry, the Love of money, Witchcraft and protects it's leaders that practice pedophilia?

1 John 3:7

"Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous."

Doesn't the Bible say to expose the works of Darkness rather than have part in them?

Ephesians 5:11

"And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."

I'm still waiting for Greg to do the reproving part of the Catholic Church and their wicked practices.  It looks like Greg Laurie is a Judas Goat leading the lambs to the slaughter.

Matthew 15:14

"Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch."

Greg's actions are dangerous with souls hanging in the balance.  By linking up with the Mother of all Harlots in this Deathfest, Mr. Laurie is telling everyone who esteems him that it is okay to be in fellowship with the Catholic Church and that they are part of the Body of Christ.  The end result of this trickery is that many believers will not heed the warning of these last days that the Catholic Church and her daughters (the worlds false religions) will be front and center along with the false prophet (America) which will deceive the world into worshipping the beast (papacy) and taking his Mark (sunday worship/trinity/spiritualism etc.). This will gaurantee you being cast into the Lake of Fire.  This is what we are dealing with here. Evangelical Pastor Numero Uno Greg Laurie in cahoots with what will be True Bible Believing Saints biggest Enemy.

We accuse Greg Laurie of High Treason agianst the Saints of God and plead with those under his care to come out of her!

Revelation 18:4

"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."

Revelation 13:11-18

"And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Gambling: Should Christians participate in it?

I think a lot of us may have done it at some point in our lives, whether it was playing Bingo, the Lotto or going to Vegas for a vacation.  And while it can seem like harmless fun especially for those who can restrain themselves from spending too much money on it, the dangers of falling into a love of money is present.  Not speaking on all who gamble but often times the motivation is a desire for more money which leads to coveting.  This post is meant to hopefully give some scripture that will guide you into making an informed Biblical decision on whether we as Christians should gamble.

Luke 12:15

"And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth."

There is also an inherent competitiveness when gambling often at the expense of others.  People have died over gambling disputes.  Stories of Men/Women who lose everything are infamous.  You might say they brought it on themselves, how about their innocent loved ones?  Do they deserve the fate handed to them by their family member's sin?  We as Christians can't solve these types of issues, however we can choose not to have a part in it.  What we can do as Christians, is choose to give our money away to brethren in our midst that need it rather than the Gaming Predators.  Are we investing in the Kingdom of this world or God's Kingdom in Heaven?

1 Corinthians 10:24

"Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth."

Exodus 20:17

"Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's."

Do we seek to do things that are pleasing to the Lord or are we seeking to please ourselves?  Go to any Casino and you will find that the gaming world also brings with it an assortment of other things not pleasing to the Lord.  Drunkenness, Cigarette smoking, prostitution rings, other criminal elements etc.  Is a Casino a place where Jesus would want us to invest our time and hard earned money in?

Ephesians 5:16

"Redeeming the time, because the days are evil."

Isaiah 65: 11-12

"But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.

Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not." Does not the Bible warn us of falling into the lust of money and material gain by way of covetousness?  The answer is yes,  so why don't many Christians heed this and stay away from Gambling and other hurtful lusts that come with it often times?  Could it be because they have already fallen into the temptation of wanting to be rich?  Could it also be that their Pastors are co-signing on their wanting to Gamble due to the Bible not spelling it out that Gambling is a Sin?  Could it be that they are sincere and not in love with money and just want to have a good time?  I suspect that all of the above is true in varying degrees. 1 Timothy 6:9-10 "But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." With the scripture below stating that covetousness should not be named among the Saints, is that not enough to stay away from the Casinos, Bingo Parlors and playing the Poor Man's Tax otherwise known as the Lottery?  Even if these gaming institutions use some of the proceeds and profits to fund good programs it doesn't supercede what scripture tells us.  Obedience is better than sacrifice.  Are we also not to be good stewards of our money? Ephesians 5:3 "But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints" The Bible makes it clear that all this coveting after money and material gain is vanity so why would we, now that we have the Mind of Christ want anything to do with it?  What is really the motivation for people to give away their money to these Gaming institutions?  And yes, it is giving away your money. They didn't build all those Casinos because people win more than they lose. Ecclesiastes 5:10 "He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity." Does God really bless this type of Gain?  Apparently not.  Ill gotten gain comes to mind. Proverbs 20:21 "An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed." Most pressing on my heart is the below scripture that tells us to keep ourselves unspotted from the World.  Why is it that you always hear the first part of the scripture but not the last from Pulpit preachers?  It's because in my view that acknowledging the last part of the scripture requires obedience in a lot of uncomfortable areas of our lives.  Maybe the Pastors in the Pulpits don't want to offend those in their congregations that love going to AC or Vegas for vacation.  Maybe they don't want to make the road narrow for their sheep but rather broad.  Maybe it's because many of Christendom's leaders are themselves in love with money so they see nothing wrong with going and spending money to get money at Casino's.  I really do think that Satan wants Christians in Casino's, Night Clubs and other places of debauchery so as to get us to stumble and then devour us eventually. James 1:27 "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world."

Click on the youtube below and you will be able to watch a posting regarding Gambling by Bianca Juarez Olthoff, daughter of Pastor Pancho Juarez from Calvary Chapel Montebello.  Bianca teaches over many women in the Evangelical Christian Denominations throughout the country with Calvary Montebello as her launch pad or at least it was at some point.  I have warned the Pastor there about his daughter teaching the female believers false doctrine however nepotism being what is, the warning went unheeded.  The justifications by Bianca for a Christian being able to gamble are alarming.  The fact that she is in a leadership position teaching women is downright scary.  This type of attitude towards something that feeds upon the Lusts of Men/Women is indicative of how lukewarm today's visible 501 C 3 State Institutional Church is.

Revelation 2:20

"Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols."

WatchTower Deception-The "We Accuse" Series

We Accuse!

There was a time when the Jehovah Witnesses in their talks and WatchTower publications referred to the United Nations as the Wild Beast that the Woman (Mystery Babylon) rode on.

The below courtesy of www.jwfacts.com  (My Note: exposing of UN in red and praise of UN in blue)

"The United Nations is actually a worldly confederacy against Jehovah God and his dedicated Witnesses on earth." Watchtower 1987 Sep 1 p.20

"True, the 138 members of the United Nations organization know that Jehovahs Christian witnesses are no part of Christendom, no, no part of harlotrous Babylon the Great as a whole. They know that Jehovahs witnesses have not messed themselves up with the dirty politics of this world and have not tried to ride the symbolic scarlet-colored wild beast having seven heads and ten horns." Mans Salvation out of World Distress at Hand! (1975) pp.339-340



"THE preamble to the United Nations Charter expresses these noble aims: We the peoples of the United Nations determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind, . . . and [desiring] to unite our strength to maintain international peace and security, . . . have resolved to combine our efforts to accomplish these aims.
Did the UN accomplish these aims? Did it get the nations to unite their strength and maintain peace and security? No, not so far, although the UN has sincerely tried to be a significantly better way than the League of Nations.
Jehovahs Witnesses firmly believe that the United Nations is going to play a major role in world events in the very near future. No doubt these developments will be very exciting. And the results will have a far-reaching impact on your life. We urge you to ask Jehovahs Witnesses in your neighborhood for more details on this matter. The Bible clearly paints a picture showing that the United Nations will very shortly be given power and authority. The UN will then do some very astonishing things that may well amaze you. And you will be thrilled to learn that there is yet a better way near at hand that will surely bring eternal peace and security!"
Awake! 1991 Sep 8 p.10

"WE THE PEOPLES OF THE UNITED NATIONS DETERMINED to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind, and to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small, . . .Preamble to the charter of the United Nations.
OCTOBER 24, 1995, marks the 50th anniversary of the United Nations. All 185 current member States are committed to the organizations original principles and goals as expressed in that charter: to maintain international peace and security; to suppress acts of aggression that threaten world peace; to encourage friendly relations among nations; to protect the fundamental freedoms of all peoples without discrimination based on race, sex, language, or religion; and to achieve international cooperation in solving economic, social, and cultural problems.
For 50 years the United Nations organization has made notable efforts to bring about world peace and security. Arguably, it may have prevented a third world war, and the wholesale destruction of human life through the use of nuclear bombs has not been repeated. The United Nations has provided millions of children with food and medicine. It has contributed to improved health standards in many countries, providing, among other things, safer drinking water and immunization against dangerous diseases. Millions of refugees have received humanitarian assistance.
In recognition of its accomplishments, the United Nations organization has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize five times. Yet, the lamentable fact of life is that we still do not live in a world without war.
In Bible prophecy, human governments are often symbolized by wild beasts. (Daniel 7:6, 12, 23; 8:20-22) Hence, for many decades the Watchtower magazine has identified the wild beasts of Revelation chapters 13 and 17 with todays worldly governments. This includes the United Nations, which is depicted in Revelation chapter 17 as a scarlet-colored beast with seven heads and ten horns.
However, this Scriptural position does not condone any form of disrespect toward governments or their officials. The Bible clearly states: Let every soul be in subjection to the superior authorities, for there is no authority except by God; the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by God. Therefore he who opposes the authority has taken a stand against the arrangement of God; those who have taken a stand against it will receive judgment to themselves. Romans 13:1, 2.
Accordingly, Jehovahs Witnesses, who are maintaining strict political neutrality, do not interfere with human governments. They never foment revolution or participate in acts of civil disobedience. Rather, they recognize that some form of government is necessary to maintain law and order in human society.Romans 13:1-7; Titus 3:1.
Jehovahs Witnesses view the United Nations organization as they do other governmental bodies of the world. They acknowledge that the United Nations continues to exist by Gods permission. In harmony with the Bible, Jehovahs Witnesses render due respect to all governments and obey them as long as such obedience does not require that they sin against God. Acts 5:29"
Watchtower 1995 Oct 1 pp.3,7

There is more on the www.jwfacts.com website about this.  I just wnated to give you a sample of the WatchTower Bible and Tract Society's about face on the matter concerning the United Nations.  We see from the above correspondence's that the WatchTower Bible And Tract Society of New York was registered as Non Govermental Organization with the United Nations from 1992-2001 in the letter dated 11-11-2001.  We also see that there was no need for WTBTS to do this in order to have access to the UN Library as they told their Branch Committee members in the above letter dated 11-1-2001. This was confirmed by the UN Letter dated 1-3-2002.  Note that the letter from 11-11-2001, the UN stated that these NGO's had to agree and support UN principles and also promote them to their constituents.

These revelations about the WatchTower's yoking with the UN exposed them as Hypocrites of the highest order being that they have long wore as a Badge of Honor their political neutrality.  Make no mistake about it, their discontinuing of their relationship with United Nations in 2001 is a cover in order to appease their followers.  They only did this beacsue they got caught with their hands in the cookie jar.




So what does this mean in the bigger picture?  For one they are violating scripture about being unequally yoked with unbelievers and having fellowship with the works of darkness.

2 Corinthians 6:14

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?"

Ephesians 5:11


"And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."

Just so you know, The United Nations is actively working together with the World's Religions in particular the Ba Hai Faith to put together the New World Order.  How do I know this, well I used to be friends with some elders in the Ba Hai Faith religion and out of his own mouth in the late 90's he told me that his religion was putting togher the New World Order with the UN.  They view it as a good thing.  We have already heard many of our Presidents and other World leaders talk about the NWO by name.  That there is a New Word Order is indisputable, what is in dispute is if it is a good thing or a bad thing.  I happen to think it is a bad thing that will leading to the establishment of the One World Religous System (Whore of Babylon Catholic Church and her harlot daughters) headed by the Anti Christ (papacy) and promoted by the false prophet (America).

So getting back to what this means regarding the WatchTower Bible and Tract Society is concerned, the bottom line is they are a daughter of the Whore of Babylon and in league with the Beast (papacy) and false prophet (America/UN).  

Revelation 17:16-17


"And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled." The WatchTower is just another component in the puzzle to the many pieces that are amalgamating into Mystery Babylon.  While they give lip service to not being part of Chrisendom or being politically neutral their actions behind the scenes tell another story.  The scary part here, especially those who are part of the Jehovah Witness relgion, is that the very Political Arm that the WatchTower is yoking up with is the very same one that is going to enslave the World one day by causing all small and great to worship the Anti Christ (papacy).  That means that the WatchTower will have a place at the seat of the table of the False Prophet and Mystery Babylon.  This means also that they will one day be drunk with the blodd of the Saints. Revelation 17:5-6 "And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.  And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration." Talk to any Jehovah Witness at your door or on the streets and one thing you will notice right away is that they are sincere and devoted to what they believe.  They are under the false asssumption that the WatchTower and it's Governing Body have their best interests at heart.  In their wildest thoughts they couldn't imagine that their leaders would deceive them.  However that is exactly what is happening. Luke 6:39 "And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?" Matthew 24;4-5 "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." We accuse the WatchTower Bible and Tract Society of manipulation of the scriptures by preaching another Jesus and deceiving their followers into following the road to Mystery Babylon.  My advice to Jehovah Witnesses, seek truth and you will find it in the Jesus Christ of the Bible. Then do what the below scripture says to do: Revelation 18:4 "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."

Revealtion 17:3
"So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."




Revelation 17:8
"The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is."

"What's Really Going On?"

This will be my first attempt at blogging from a Religous/Spiritual persepctive.  I have had so much to say about the events of the last few years concerning goings on with the so called Church.  I have been banned from one blog where varying opinion isn't really valued.  There are a few blogs that I do enjoy however and I have been inspired by their efforts in documenting the apostasy of the Church.  You may find the title curious as it is usually stated in the opposite way.  I mean, don't we have to be united in order to stand as a Church? Yes and No is my answer.  With the true uncompromising Bible Believing Church, an emphatic "Yes"  is my response.  With the Apostate compromising headed to "Mystery Babylon" Church, my answer is a resounding "NO"!

2 Corinthians 6:14-18

Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said:“I will dwell in them
And walk among them.I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.”

Therefore“Come out from among them
And be separate, says the Lord.
Do not touch what is unclean,
And I will receive you.”

“I will be a Father to you,
And you shall be My sons and daughters,
Says the LORD Almighty.”

See, you are going to increasingly hear for calls of compromise and unity by many in the world during these last days.  Alarmingly, those calls for unity will also come from those in the visible Institutional Church especially here in America.  It's already happening, all one has to do is look at Rick Warren, Greg Laurie and Brian Broderson just to name a few that have hitched their wagon with Catholic Church and have extolled their virtues or in the case of Warren and Laurie have outright joined them in joint worship services and conferences.  Warren himself has been on Catholic TV holding hands with the Harlot all in the name of fighting culture wars.  Laurie's joint lifefest with the Catholic Church in Wisconsin a few years ago virtually went unnoticed among his followers.

Pope Francis is working hard to bring the World's religions together in the guise of fighting for morality all the while talking out of both sides of his mouth on issues such as abortion, atheism and Homosexual psuedo marriage.  The end game is clear for those with an ear to hear, bing the World's Religions together as part of Mystery Babylon which will be the spiritual aspect of the New World Order.  Anyone not willing to go along with this Satanic unity will be Public Enemy No. 1.  Unfortunatley most of the Institutional 501 C 3 Church is in apostasy. Don't believe me, just try finding one that isn't in someway connected to a False Teacher or a False Religous movement.  The Pastors/Elders of the Institutional Church should be the ones warning and protecting the sheep.  However instead of warning, they are actually leading their man trusting flocks back to the Mother of Harlots and thereby going over a cliff.

Matthew 15:14

“Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”

Back to Public Enemy No. 1, just who do you think that will be?  The Born Again Christian that refuses to compromise what the bible says and refuses to be yoked with false prophets and false religions.  Those that wake up and come out of the False State run Churches as they see them march onward to Rome.  See, we will be hated by those that have compromised in the name of Unity and don't be suprised even if Family members turn against you.

Matthew 10:34-37

“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.

“For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; “and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.

“He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me."

  The World will hate Christians like never before because we refuse to embrace the False Utopia of the Last days.   The False Prophet (America) will cause all great and small who don't have their name written in the Lamb's book of life to worship the Beast (The papacy ) and his image (Church-State Union of Protestantism/Evangelicalism and the United States).

Revelation 13:11-15

"Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And he deceives thosefn who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed."

We will need to be spiritually prepared in these last days as Believers.  The pressure to apostastize will be immense especially as we near the coming together of the False ecumenical Babylonian Religion and the New World Order Government System.  Read, Pray and Obey!  Remember, we must endure to the end to be saved.

Matthew 24;13

“But he who endures to the end shall be saved."
