The Truth About The Sabbath: A Different Perspective – Shining The Light Ministries – Bible Study
Welcome to Shining the Light Ministries Bible Study. This week we will be looking at The Truth About The Sabbath: A Different Perspective. We will see what the Bible says about how we are to keep the 4th Commandment in this age of Grace.
The Bible teaches that pastors are to keep the church pure, not allow the wolves to infiltrate and spread their heresies to the children and baby Christians behind their backs!
Jude 1:3-19 “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.”
2 John 1:9-11 “Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”
Matthew 7:15 “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”
Matthew 10:16 “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.”
Acts 20:29 “For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.”
I have taught against all of these heresies in different posts on this blog. The links link to the posts that refute theses heresies.
These heresies are called “damnable heresies”, because they can cause people to think they are saved when they are not, and then they end up in Hell.
Wolves are also always in some kind of really bad sin like adultery, fraud, witchcraft, and they can even be led to murder their followers as was Jim Jones.
Matthew 7:15-24 “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
These people are deadly! That is why the Bible says not to even allow them into your house!
The word “house” in 2 John 1:9-11 can also mean church because it can be figurative (Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible with Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries #3614 and #3624 In the Greek. #3624 actually says temple).
This means you stop these wolves at the door and don’t let them even attend! They are not there to learn the truth, they are only there to devour the sheep!
Nowhere in the Bible does it say that church services are supposed to be completely public. Church is first of all for the saved. The lost are only to be allowed in if they are truly seeking to learn, if you discover that they are there to infiltrate you stop them at the door!
That is how heresies have been infiltrated into the church, because pastors refuse to keep the church pure and kick the wolves out.
They may not allow them to officially teach, but since these wolves are even allowed to attend, they can easily draw children and weak Christians into their false doctrines just through conversation.
After the first and second admonition you are supposed to kick them out! Don’t even let them attend!
Titus 3:10-11 “A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.”
The Jesuits and Masons are really good at subtly infiltrating.
They start out just drawing people away subtly through conversation. Then a new pastor comes in and thinks this guy is good, and then the guy can start teaching and even become a pastor in time.
He then begins to get the younger, weaker Christians to help him kick out the older and stronger Christians.
Then this wolf gets caught in some horrendous crime like fraud, or child molestation and the whole church is severely damaged!
This is what happened in the First Baptist Church of Hammond Indiana.
Somehow a wolf, who I really suspect was a Jesuit, was able to marry the Pastor’s daughter, then after the Pastor died, this wolf became the Pastor.
He first started to attack the King James Bible, which that church had always stood strong on, Then he started subtilty changing other fundamentals of that church, then he got a lot of young men in positions around him and started pushing out the older Christians, Then this wolf was caught molesting a teenage girl! The guy is now in prison where he belongs, but the church was severely damaged, and the Name of Christ suffered great reproach.
This church was almost destroyed, because they were not vigilant enough to keep the wolves out!
Years before the first Pastor died, the church youth group that I was a member of would take a trip every Summer to this church’s Youth Conference. I first heard this wolf preach at the Youth Conference 21 years ago when I was 16 years old. I suspected even at that time that he might be a Jesuit wolf because he had preached a sermon about America being Mystery Babylon Spoken of in Revelation 17 and 18. Even at that young age I had already been studying about the Jesuits for 3 years and I knew that the teaching that America was Mystery Babylon was started by the Jesuits to hinder the preaching of the truth that Mystery Babylon is actually the Roman Catholic Church.
However, I never said anything to anyone, because I was young, and because I knew that the Ecumenical Movement had caused many people to believe that false teaching and others, even if they were not Jesuits. So I was hoping that this guy was just taught wrong and was not an actual wolf.
However, with everything that he did, I now believe that he is a Jesuit wolf.
In churches that use other Bible versions besides the King James a wolf will just start attacking the authority and validity of the Bible in general.
In many Baptist churches it is so bad today that Jesuits and Masons are masquerading as pastors, teachers and deacons and are spreading their damnable heresies, and destroying innocent lives.
And yes,
many Jesuits can get married!
There are
3 different levels of Jesuits.
The priests are at the top. They are the only ones who are forbidden to marry. However, even they can marry if the Jesuit General commands them too, in order for them to better infiltrate a church.
Even a Nun can marry if the Pope commands her too. One of Mohammad’s wives was actually a Catholic Nun, who the Pope commanded to marry Mohammad. Then her brother helped Mohammad interpret his visions and write the Quran. So the Catholic church actually helped found Islam, because they wanted to use Mohammad and his followers as an army to capture Jerusalem. They did capture Jerusalem, but decided to keep it for themselves instead of handing it over to the Pope. So now the Catholic church fights against Islam. As you can see the Catholic church infiltrates all religions, not just true churches. (You can learn more about this by reading “The Prophet” by Alberto Rivera published by Chick Publications.)
However, there are the second level of Jesuits that are professionals like Psychologists, doctors, lawyers, accountants, etc. These can get married and can infiltrate churches as teachers, deacons, and even Pastors!
Then you have the 3rd level of Jesuits, that are laborers such as electricians, cooks, factory workers etc. These can also get married and can infiltrate churches as teachers, deacons, and even Pastors! (See the book: “The Secret History of the Jesuits” Published by Chick Publications.)
Therefore, it is possible to have generations of Jesuits infiltrated into the true church!
We must know what we believe and why or the wolves will come in and tear us apart!
Christians need to start obeying 1 Timothy 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
Pastors must purify their churches by kicking the wolves out of the church and keeping them out, or they will have blood on their hands!
2 John 1:9-11 “Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”
Learn How to Spot the Wolves!
To learn more about how to spot wolves in your church please read the Alberto series of books and the book “The Secret History of the Jesuits published by Chick Publications.
If you learn how to spot a Jesuit, you will be able to spot any wolf. The Jesuits are the most subtle and most dangerous of all wolves. They have been around for almost 500 years and were started by a military General, who was a master at espionage.
Jesuits go through years of training learning how to infiltrate, take over, and destroy true churches.
They take an oath to kill anyone who does not agree with them either openly with the sword or secretly by the poison cup.
Many Christians in churches could be getting cancer and other health problems, because Jesuits in their churches are secretly poisoning them.
Alberto Rivera was a Jesuit Priest who truly got saved and completely renounced the Catholic church. He preached against the Catholic church and the Jesuits for many years. The Jesuits kept trying to kill him, but were unable to for a long time. Then a “friend” of his claimed that he too had gotten saved and left the Jesuits. This guy kept begging him to come to his house to eat. Alberto was leery of him, so he kept kindly declining the invitation. The guy kept asking, and Alberto began to feel bad about not trusting him. He went and ate at the guy’s house, and became very sick and had to go to the hospital. The doctors found that he had been poisoned. His “friend” then disappeared. About a year later Alberto was diagnosed with Colon cancer, and ended up dying. Before he died, Alberto said that Jesuits will use poisons with retro viruses in them to cause cancer, and that this is what had happened to him.
Christians must learn how to spot the wolves, and keep them out of their churches! Both souls and lives depend on it!
Churches Need to be More Careful About Membership.
Churches should never allow anyone to become a member of their church without having the person meet with the Pastor and deacons first to make sure of what they believe, and that they are not living a sinful lifestyle. And they should be denied membership if it is found that they believe any damnable heresies, or are living a sinful lifestyle, and refuse to repent after being shown the truth in Scripture.
New Christians should not be allowed to teach!
A big problem I see in churches is that they will get anyone to teach a Sunday School class. As soon as someone makes a profession of faith the church will put them teaching the kids!
That is completely irresponsible!
This just opens the door wide to wolves!
No one should ever be allowed to teach at all in the church until they have gone through proper discipleship training and the Pastor is sure that they will not be teaching any damnable heresies.Furthermore,teaching should only be done by church members who are in good standing, unless the person is a visitor who the Pastor knows well.
Churches should not allow people to serve at all who are not living right.
In addition, If someone is in open sin they should never be allowed to serve in the church! Not even to sing in the choir or serve food to the kids! Because the kids will look up to them and think they are a good person and then be led astray or even hurt by them. They should be under church discipline until they repent!
Churches must become wise as serpents and stop opening the doors wide for the wolves to come in and devour the sheep!
The Bible says in Revelation 18:1-4 “And after these things
I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth
was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice,
saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of
devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and
hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her
fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her,
and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her
delicacies. 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.”
Only
saved people are God’s people.
Therefore, the Bible is showing here that some saved people would get mixed up in the cult of Babylon, and suffer through God’s judgment upon her, if they do not leave.
The Roman
Catholic Church is the Cult of Babylon.
I will now show you how that the Roman Catholic church is not the true church, but is a counterfeit. And how that its teachings contradict the Bible and agree with ancient Babylonian paganism.
The Bible
says Jesus Christ is the Head of the true church not any man, such as the Pope.
Ephesians 1:20-23 “Which he wrought in Christ, when
he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly
places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and
every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to
come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head
over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that
filleth all in all.”
Colossians 1:12-18 “Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.”
The Bible says that Jesus Christ, the Apostles, and the Old Testament Prophets are the only foundation of the true church not “church tradition” or writings of so called “Church Fathers.”
Ephesians 2:20 “And are built upon the foundation of the
apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;”
1 Corinthians 3:11 “For other foundation can no man lay than
that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
The Bible
is truth, and God’s inspired Word.
Jesus prayed in John 17:17 “Sanctify them through thy truth:
thy word is truth.”
2 Peter 1:21 “For the prophecy came not in old time by
the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by
the Holy Ghost.”
The Bible
is the only record we have of what Jesus, the Apostles, and the Old Testament
Prophets taught.
Therefore, since we must found our faith only upon the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Apostles, and the Old Testament prophets, then we must found our faith only upon what the Bible says, not upon what any man or church tradition says.
The Bible is God’s Word. It was not written by the will of men, but holy men wrote exactly what God told them to write by the Holy Ghost.
2 Peter 1:21 “For the prophecy came not in old time by
the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by
the Holy Ghost.”
The Bible
says to reject heretics after 1 and 2 admonitions.
A heretic is someone who teaches something that contradicts
the Bible. The Roman Catholic church teaches many things that contradict the
Bible.
Let us
look at a few doctrines of the Roman Catholic church that contradict the Bible:
The
Catholic Church says that Peter was the first Pope.
First of all, the Bible never says that Peter went to Rome.
Even His Epistles were written to the church at Babylon, not the church at
Rome.
Furthermore, the Catholic church tries to justify their
claim of Peter being the first Pope by twisting Matthew 16:18 “And I say also
unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and
the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”
They say that Peter was the rock that Christ built His church on, but the word Peter means a piece of a rock, like a small stone (Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance with Hebrew and Greek dictionaries # 4074 in the Greek), and the word rock in this verse means a mass of rock like a big boulder (Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance with Hebrew and Greek dictionaries # 4073 in the Greek) .
The Bible
says Christ built His church upon Himself.
The Bible says that Christ is the chief cornerstone of the
church, not Peter.
Ephesians 2:20 “And are built upon the foundation of the
apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;”
1 Corinthians 3:11 “For other foundation can no man lay
than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
In addition, Peter was married.
Matthew 8:14 “And when Jesus was come into Peter’s house, he
saw his wife’s mother laid, and sick of a fever.”
Mark 1:30 “But Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever,
and anon they tell him of her.”
The
Catholic church says a human priest can forgive sins.
The teaching that a human priest can forgive sins comes from
Baal worship, not the Bible.(Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two Babylons.
3rd ed. Ontario: Chick Publications. P. 7.)
The Catholic church twists the meaning of the Scripture
passage John 20:21-23 “Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my
Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when he had said this, he breathed
on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: Whose soever sins
ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they
are retained.”
However,
Jesus did not give the Apostles power to forgive anyone’s sins in order to keep
them out of Hell and give them salvation.
Nowhere in the Bible did any of the Apostles forgive anyone’s sins at any time. Even Peter told Simon the sorcerer to repent and pray to God for forgiveness of his sin. Then when Simon the sorcerer asked Peter to pray for him, Peter gave no answer.
Acts 8:9-25 “But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God. And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries. But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done. Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee. For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity. Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the LORD for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me. And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.”
The belief that religious leaders can forgive sins comes from paganism and traces all the way back to the beginning of Baal worship with Nimrod and Semiriamis in Babylon.
Simon was a sorcerer, and he showed here that he believed that Peter could pray for him in order for God to forgive him his sins. This is why Peter gave no answer, and apparently just walked away. Because Peter knew that the man had to repent and pray and ask God for forgiveness himself. If Peter had had the power to forgive Simon’s sins, or could have prayed for him for his sins to be forgiven, then Peter would have done one of those things. The Scriptures show that Peter was not even sure that Simon could be forgiven for the grievous sin that he committed. This passage proves more than any other that Peter was never a Pope!
The Bible saysJesus is the only mediator between God and men, not Peter or anyone else.
1 Timothy 2:5” For there is one God, and one mediator
between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;”
Furthermore,the Apostle Paul told the Philippian jailer to believe on Jesus in order to be saved. If the Apostle Paul could have forgiven the man’s sins, he would have forgiven them.
Acts 16:27-32 “And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.”
John Calvin taught that Jesus was just giving the Apostles power to preach the Gospel in John 20:21-23. I disagree with him, because I do not see that in that passage. This passage says nothing about preaching, and it actually says that the Apostles had power to retain and remit sins. As I have just explained above it was not to forgive them so they could escape any kind of eternal punishment. So exactly what was Jesus talking about here?
In John
20:21-23 Jesus was speaking of the Apostles and all believers being able to
call down or withhold God’s physical judgment in this life against those who
would persecute them.
When Stephen was killed, he prayed that God would not
hold the sin against his murders.
Acts 7:59-60 “And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and
saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. And he kneeled down, and cried with a
loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this,
he fell asleep.”
Stephan’s dying prayer could have led to the Apostle Paul getting saved, since he was a young man at the time, watched the coats for the men who stoned Stephen, and was consenting to his death. (Acts 7:58-8:1)
Therefore, a prayer for God’s mercy on your persecutors in this life can lead to them repenting and getting saved, but our prayers cannot save them, they themselves must repent and ask God for forgiveness in order to be saved from eternal punishment.
A more modern example of this is William Tyndale.
He was burned at the stake by King Henry the VIII for translating the Bible into English and making it available to the common people in their common language.
When William Tyndale died, he cried out, “Lord, open the King of England’s eyes!” Not long after, God did open King Henry the VIII’s eyes and he allowed the Bible, the very one that Tyndale translated, to be given to the common people. This eventually led to the founding of America, and to the Philadelphian Church Age, wherein were great revivals and awakenings, and millions were saved.
Unfortunately, though King Henry the VIII himself probably died lost and went to hell. I see no evidence in history that he ever truly repented of his sins and trusted in Christ.
So again, no one can forgive another person’s sins, or have another person’s sins forgiven them by praying for them, because each person must repent of their sins, believe in Jesus, and ask God to forgive them themselves. However, our prayers can cause the Holy Spirit to work harder to lead either them, and/or millions of others to salvation later.
In addition, the Apostle Paul struck a man blind for
hindering the Gospel, and also prayed that the Lord would judge Alexander the
coppersmith.
Acts 13:8-12 “But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand. Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.”
Notice the result of the judgement was that someone got saved. The salvation of souls should be our intent whenever we use the power that God has given us to either withhold His physical judgment or call it down on someone.
2 Timothy 4:14-15 “Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works: Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.”
Scripture does not tell us the result of this prayer of
judgment, but again, this was another man who was hindering the salvation of
others. Paul’s intention was that God would judge Alexander, so more people
could be saved.
The Bible
says only God can forgive sins.
Luke 5:19 “And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus. And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee. And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone? But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts? Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house. And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.”
Jesus is God, so He has power to forgive sins, he healed the man to prove that!
The
Catholic church says that you must work to get your sins forgiven.
They say you
must do whatever penance a priest tells you to do in order to have your sins
forgiven. This could be paying money, saying a bunch of prayers, walking around
on your knees, or many other “works.”
This teaching of
obedience to a human priest to work for one’s salvation started in Babylon with
Baal worship. (Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two Babylons. 3rd ed. Ontario:
Chick Publications. P. 7.)
Repentance is not the same thing as penance. Repentance is a change of your heart from wanting to sin to wanting to obey God. This is an immediate change of your heart (meaning desire and will). It means that you yield (submit) your will to God’s will.
That is repentance of sins, and it is required for you to receive forgiveness of your sins.
Luke 13:5 “I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall
all likewise perish.”
Ezekiel 18:23 “Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked
should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways,
and live?”
Ezekiel 18:23 agrees with 2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slack
concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to
us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to
repentance.”
In addition, Matthew 9:13 says “But go ye and learn what
that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call
the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
Also, look at Romans 10:9 “That if thou shalt confess with
thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised
Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
The word “believe” in Romans 10:9 in the Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance roots backwards twice to a word, which means “obey” (the word believe is Strong’s # 4100 in the Greek, which comes from # 4102, which comes from # 3982, which means obey and also yield). This shows that true faith is rooted in obedience.
Therefore, in order to fulfill the requirements of salvation in Romans 10:9 you must be fully persuaded in your mind of who Jesus Christ is and what He has done, and your heart must change from wanting to sin to wanting to obey God. As I said above, this is an immediate change of your heart (meaning desire and will). It means that you yield (submit) your will to God’s will.
Your actions may not change immediately, but you are going
to be so convicted over your sin, when you mess up, that you are going to cry
out to God to help you to change.
This is repentance, and it has nothing to do with penance.
The Bible says we are forgiven of our sins by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, and that salvation is a free gift.
Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith;
and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works,
lest any man should boast.”
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift
of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Romans 1:17 “For therein is the righteousness of God
revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by
faith.”
Galatians 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in
the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.”
Romans 10:9 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth
the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from
the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
The
Catholic church says to pray to Saints and Mary.
They say
that you will be more likely to get your prayers answered if you pray to Mary
and certain saints, and have them intercede for you. The idea of praying to
dead humans is also deeply rooted in paganism.
Plus, the Bible says all saved people are saints, not just certain dead ones.
1
Corinthians 1:2 “Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are
sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place
call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their’s and our’s:”
Revelation
14:12 “Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the
commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.”
The Bible
says to pray to God alone, and that Jesus is our only mediator.”
Matthew 6:6
“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut
thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in
secret shall reward thee openly.”
1 Timothy
2:5 “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ
Jesus;”
None of
the Apostles ever prayed to anyone but God, and they never said to pray to
anyone but God.
The Bible
also says to pray for living saints, it does not say to pray to dead ones.
Ephesians
6:18 “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and
watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;”
We are not
to pray for dead saints, because after death is judgment. There is nothing that
we can pray or do to make their eternity better for them, and it is too late
for them to repent anymore.
Hebrews 9:27
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:”
The
Catholic church says that people go to purgatory to pay for their sins, and
that other people must pay money to get them out early.
This is
nothing but a money scam. They enslave the souls of people to increase their
own wealth.
The Bible
says that saved people immediately go to heaven to be with Jesus, and lost
people immediately go to hell.
Luke 16:22-26
“And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels
into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he
lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in
his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and
send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my
tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that
thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil
things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all
this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would
pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come
from thence.”
2
Corinthians 5: 6-8 “Therefore
we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we
are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are
confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be
present with the Lord.”
And as I said before, once someone dies nothing can be done to make their eternity better for them. It is too late for them to repent anymore, because after death is judgment.
The
Catholic church says to bow down to idols.
The Catholic
church says to bow down to idols that they say are Mary, Jesus, and saints.
This is blatantly pagan. We do not know what Mary and Jesus even looked like.
Those are actually idols of Semiramis, Baal, and Tamuz. The Catholic church
just changed their names. (Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two Babylons. 3rd ed. Ontario: Chick
Publications.)
The Bible
says not to bow down to idols.
Exodus
20:4-5 “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any
thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in
the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve
them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the
fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that
hate me;”
The Catholic
church says that the Pope is infallible.
The teaching that the Pope is infallible in his teachings and morals became part of Catholic dogma in Vatican 1 Council. The idea that religious leaders are infallible in their teachings started with Baal worship in Babylon. (Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two Babylons. 3rd ed. Ontario: Chick Publications. P. 7.)
The Bible
says all humans are sinners.
Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the
glory of God;”
In addition, none of the Apostles ever claimed any
infallibility. The Bible praises the Bereans for making sure that the teachings
of the Apostles agreed with what the Old Testament Prophets said would come to
pass. The Bible must be our final authority for all doctrine and life!
Acts 17:10-11 “And the brethren immediately sent away Paul
and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the
synagogue of the Jews. These were more noble than those in
Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched
the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.”
The Bible
says that religious leaders who sin are to be rebuked openly.
1 Timothy 5;19-20 “Against an elder receive not an
accusation, but before two or three witnesses. Them that sin rebuke before all,
that others also may fear.”
The Bible
does not exclude any elders from this open rebuke for sin. Peter himself was
openly rebuked by Paul.
Galatians 2:11-14“But when Peter was come to
Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. For
before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when
they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of
the circumcision. And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that
Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation. But when I saw that
they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto
Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of
Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as
do the Jews?”
The
Catholic church says Mary is Co-Redeemer with Christ.
They say that Mary has to intercede for people in order for
Christ to forgive them of their sins.
This is nothing more than a “Christian face” put on the
pagan teachings of Baal worship. In Babylon, Semiramis commanded people to
worship her son Tamuz as a god, and she herself claimed to be a goddess and the
mediator between the people and her son. (Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two
Babylons. 3rd ed. Ontario: Chick Publications. P. 5.)
The Bible
says that Jesus is our only Savior and mediator.
Acts 4:10-12 “Be it known unto you all, and to all the
people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye
crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here
before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders,
which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any
other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we
must be saved.
John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
1 Timothy 2:5 “For there is one God, and one mediator between
God and men, the man Christ Jesus;”
The
Catholic church forbids certain people like priests and nuns to marry.
This pagan religious discipline can be traced all the way back to Semiramis and Nimrod the founders of Baal worship in Babylon. (Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two Babylons. 3rd ed. Ontario: Chick Publications. 219-220.)
The Catholic church
first officially enforced this rule at the Second Lateran Council held in 1139.
The Bible
teaches that the church is not to forbid to marry.
1 Timothy 4:1-3 “ Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in
the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing
spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their
conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding
to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving
of them which believe and know the truth.”
The
Catholic church changed the Lord’s Supper into the Mass and says that it
actually turns into the body and blood of Jesus.
The Catholic church first made the sacrament of the Mass a
doctrine in 394 AD. Below is what was said about it at the Council of Trent in
1563 and then it was Ratified at the Vatican II Council in 1963:
“If any one shall deny that the body and blood, together
with the soul and divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ, and therefore entire
Christ, are truly, really and substantially contained in the sacrament of the
most Holy Eucharist; and say that He is only in it as a sign, or in a
figure-let him be accursed! (Damned)” This doctrine is still in effect in
the Catholic Church today.
This practice of “turning a god into a piece of bread” comes from Baal worship and ancient Egyptian paganism! Not the Bible! (Hislop, Alexander. 1862. The Two Babylons. 3rd ed. Ontario: Chick Publications. 156-164.)
The Bible
says the Lord’s supper is only a symbolic remembrance of Christ’s sacrifice for
us on the cross.
Luke 22:19 “And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake
it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this
do in remembrance of me.”
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 “For I have received of the Lord that
which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he
was betrayed took bread: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said,
Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance
of me. After the same manner also he
took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my
blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.For
as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death
till he come.”
As you can see, the core doctrines of the Roman Catholic church are in direct contradiction of the Bible! Therefore, the doctrines of the Roman Catholic church are heresies, and the Roman Catholic church is a heretic cult! Not a true Church of Jesus Christ!
The Roman Catholic church has been admonished for these heresies over and over again by men like, Peter Waldo, John Huss, John Wycliff, Martin Luther, John Calvin, and many millions more, but instead of repenting, they persecuted and killed many of them.
The Roman Catholic church is a heretic cult that has been admonished, but has refused to repent! Therefore, you must reject her and obey God’s calling to you:
“Come Out of her my people!“
For, if
you refuse to denounce Rome and come out of her, God will punish you with her
in the Great Tribulation!
Revelation 18:1-4 “And after these things I saw another
angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened
with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the
great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the
hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For
all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the
kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of
the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. 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 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. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.”
The eating of “things sacrificed unto idols” mentioned
here is specifically speaking of the Mass.
The Roman Catholic Church is the Cult of Babylon, its teachings agree with the paganism of Babylon not with the Bible.
In addition, the Bible specifically speaks of the Roman Catholic Church and describes it as a “Great Whore” in Revelation 17.
Revelation 17:
1 “And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: 2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. 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. 4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: 5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 6 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. 7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. 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. 9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. 10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. 11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. 13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. 14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. 15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. 16 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. 17 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. 18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.”
The Bible says this woman sits on seven mountains.
Revelation 17:9 “And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.” The word mountains in this verse can mean hills (Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance with Greek and Hebrew Dictionaries # 3735 in the Greek).
Rome is built on seven hills.
These seven hills are called Aventine, Caelian, Capitoline,
Esquiline, Palatine, Quirinal and Viminal. The Servian Wall was built around
them as a defense in the 300s B.C. Then these seven hills became the seven
hills of Rome. Therefore, Rome is called “the city on 7 hills.”
Now it is true that Vatican Hill is not one of the 7 hills of Rome. However, in 313 AD, Constantine gave the Lateran Palace on Caelian Hill to the Bishop of Rome. Caelian Hill, which is one of the seven hills of Rome, then became and still remains, the ecclesiastical seat of the Bishop of Rome, who is the Pope.
Furthermore, in 324 AD, the first basilica was built on Caelian Hill, now called “St. John Lateran.” In it is a throne called the cathedra, which is a seat, a chair with arms for the pope.Therefore, the Pope himself does sit on one of the seven Hills of Rome.
The Bible
says this woman is clothed in purple, scarlet, and gold.
Revelation 17:4a “And the woman was arrayed in purple and
scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls…”
The Pope
and other officials of the Catholic church wear purple, scarlet, and gold.
On February 15th, 44 BC, Julius Caesar wore a luxurious
purple and gold robe to the feast of Pan, called Lupercalia.
After this, all Caesars started wearing that costly purple, and
scarlet and gold as a symbol of royalty.
This continued right down into Roman Catholic clergy,
becoming commonplace in 500 AD.
The Bible
says this woman declares herself to be “Mother.”
Revelation 17:5 “And upon her forehead was a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE
EARTH.”
The
Catholic church declares herself to be the “Mother” church.
In 251 AD, Cyprian of Carthage declared in De Unitate
Ecclesiae (“The Unity of the Church”), “He cannot have God for
his Father who has not the Church for his mother.”
After this, the Roman Catholic church started calling itself “Mother Church.”
In addition, in 431 AD at the Council of Ephesus, where they
once cried for two hours,
“Great is Diana of the Ephesians,” Acts 19:34,
they now exalted Mary as the theotokos the bearer of God, the mother of God.
And often, becoming Roman Catholic is said to be “coming home to mother church” or “coming home to Mary.”
In Revelation 18:7 the whore of Babylon says, “I sit a
queen.” Is it any coincidence that the Catholic Mary is also called
“The Queen of Heaven”? Her Seat is on One of the Seven Mountains.
Revelation 17:9 “And here is the mind which hath
wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.”
The Bible
says this Woman is “Drunk with the blood of the saints.”
Revelation 17:6a “And I saw the woman drunken with the blood
of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus…”
The Roman
Catholic Church has killed millions of Christians.
In 1184 AD the Synod of Verona says you can burn heretics at
the stake, and in 1215 AD starting at the 4th Lateran Council the Inquisition
was formed.
After that, does anyone really want to dispute the millions
of victims, tortured and killed in the name of the pope, the Mary goddess, and
the Eucharist wafer?
Even if the killings weren’t done at Rome, Roman Catholicism
was responsible.
Truly, she was power-mad, “drunk with the blood of the
saints.”
Revelation 18:24 “And in her was found the blood of
prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.”
To this very day the Jesuits still take an oath to kill all heritics. (Meaning those wh do not agree with them.)
Here is
the Jesuit oath that the Jesuits still bind themselves to today:
“ I now in
the presence of
the Almighty God,
the blessed virgin
Mary, the blessed
Michael the Archangel,
the blessed St.
John the Baptist
. . •
and my ghostly
father, the superior
general of the
Society of Jesus,
founded by St.
Ignatius Loyola, do
by the womb
of the Virgin
• . .
swear that His
Holiness the Pope
is Christ’s vice-regent, and
is the true
and only Head
of the Catholic
or Universal Church
… I do
now renounce and
dis own any
allegiance is due
to any heretical
King, Prince, or
State, named Protestant
or Liberal, or obedience to
any of their
laws or magistrates, or
officers. I do
further declare the
doctrine of the
Church of England,
and Scotland, and
of Calvanists, Huguenots,
and others of
the name of
Protestant or Liberal,
to be damnable,
and themselves to
be damned, who
will not forsake
the same- I do
further promise and
declare that, notwithstanding I am
dispensed with, to
assume my religion
heretical for the
propagation of Mother
Church’s interest, to
keep secret and
private all her
agents, counsels, from
time to time,
as they interest
me, and not
divulge directly or
indirectly by word,
writing, or circumstances whatever. I
do furthermore promise
and declare that
I will, when
opportunity presents, make
and wage relentless
war secretly or
openly, against all
heretics, Protestants, and
Liberals, as I
am directed to;
extirpate them from
the face of
the earth; and
that I will
spare neither age,
sex, or condition,
and that I
will hang, burn,
waste, boil, flay,
strangle and bury
alive those infamous
heretics; rip up
the stomachs and
wombs of the
women, and crush
their infants’ heads
against the walls
in order to
annihilate their inexorable
race. That when
the same cannot
be done openly,
I will secretly
use the poisonous
cup, the strangulating cords,
the steels of
the poinard, or
the leaden bullets,
regardless of the
honour, rank, dignity,
or authority of
the persons, whatever
may be their
condition in life,
either public or
private, as I
at any time
may be directed
to by any
agent of the
Pope, or the
superior of the
Holy Father of
the Society of
Jesus. In confirmation of
which I hereby
dedicate my life,
my soul, and
my corporeal powers;
and with this
dagger, which I
now receive, I
will subscribe my
name written in
my blood in
testimony thereof; and
should I prove
false, or weaken
in my determination may
my brethren and fellow-soldiers of
the militia of
the Pope, cut
off my hands
and my feet,
and my throat
from ear to
ear, rip my
belly open, and
sulphur burn therein, and all
the punishments that
can be inflicted
on me on
earth, and my soul
be tortured by
demons in an
eternal hell for
ever. In testimony
thereof I take
this most holy
and blessed sacrament
of the Eucharist,
and witness the
same further with
my name written with
the point of
this dagger, dipped
in my own
blood, and sealed
in the face
of the holy
covenant . (From the National Library of Australia https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2478231803/view?partId=nla.obj-2478232434

The current Pope is a Jesuit.
As you can see the Jesuits are a very militant group just
like Jihad, and they should be banned from America as terrorists just like
Jihad was. For more information about the Jesuits, please read the book
“The Secret History of the Jesuits” by Francois-Edmond Paris.
The Roman Catholic church is truly drunk with the blood of
the saints.
The Bilbe
says this woman is a city that reigns over the kings of the earth.
Revelation 17:18 “And the woman which thou sawest is
that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.”
The
Catholic church claims authority over all world leaders.
In Unam Sanctam, 1302, Pope Boniface VIII created the ex
cathedra doctrine. He declared “…in this Church and in its power are two
swords; namely, the spiritual and the temporal…. Both, therefore, are in the
power of the Church…” “Temporal” meaning human government.
Then he said the church was the highest power of all, and:
“…if the highest power of all err, it can be judged only by God, and not
by man…”
What he’s saying is that the Pope has authority over all the governments of the world, and is accountable to God only.
On February 11, 1929, the signing of the Lateran Accords,
made Vatican City a sovereign city-state.
Making it both a city and a country, with its ruler, the
Bishop of Rome, the Pope.
And since it is both a religious body and has a single ruler, it is called an “sacerdotal-monarchical” city.
Since 1929, most countries of the world have come to the
Vatican to have a “private audience” with the pope.
And Rome, has sent her own ambassadors to most of the
nations of the world.
Can anyone deny the massive influence of Rome in world politics?
Think about this.
If the government does not please the Pope, the Pope can tell all of his followers not to obey that government. And a government does not work without the people.
Therefore, world leaders listen to the Pope.
And that is to say nothing about the centuries of the not so
“Holy Roman Empire,” and all the kings who either gained power or
lost it, because of the Pope’s word.
And now, since 1929, Rome is both a city and a country.
The Bible
says that kings have committed fornication with this woman.
Revelation 18:3 “For all nations have drunk of the wine
of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed
fornication with her,”
World
leaders respect, meet with, and listen to the Pope in order to keep their
positions.
As I said above, if a government does not do what the Pope
says too, then the Pope can order all Catholics not to support that government,
and that government then suffers from Rome’s wrath.
This happened in both World Wars. (Read the Book the secret
History of the Jesuits by Francois-Edmond Paris).
So, world leaders seek to appease the Pope. The Bible calls this fornication, because Rome is a false religion, and it’s so called “political power” is illegitimate.
Furthermore, many nations throughout history have made nice with the Roman Catholic church, and then allowed her to pour out her wrath on the Christians in their Nations who obey the Bible instead of the Pope (The Inquisition).
After all, the only people going against the Roman Catholic church are those who obey the Bible instead of the Pope.
Pope Francis I has said that the only people who are causing the troubles of the world are fundamentalists, meaning Bible-believers.
The Bible says this woman has Incredible wealth and trades with the nations.
Revelation 18:3 “…the
merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her
delicacies.”
The Catholic church is very wealthy and sells her religious
items all over the world.
All of the Catholic church’s religious items such as Crucifixes,
idols, prayer beads vestments etc,. are made out of the meterials that the
Bible says Babylon gets rich off of: ivory, precious woods, stones, gold and
silver.
That’s what Rome sells… … and also,”the souls of men,”
Revelation 18:13 “And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments,
and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and
sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.”
As I said earlier Rome makes most of its wealth off the backs of poor people, by lying to them and telling them they have to pay money to get their loved ones out of Purgatory (which does not even exist), or to keep themselves out of Purgatory. This is a very cruel and oppressive scam! I mean, think about these people. Their souls are very valuable, to God. The precious Roman Catholics need the True Word of God , which offers peace and freedom, not fear and slavery.
I have just shown you many things in Revelation 17 and 18, that are clearly true about the Roman Catholic church. I put them in both chronological and historical order. You can research each one of them yourself.
Is there anybody else who fulfills all of these things?
God knew the Roman Catholic church would do all of this, and so He warned us in Revelation chapters 17 and 18 before it came to pass.
He revealed to us in His Word what we should look for so
that we would not be deceived and enslaved by a false religion.
By the way, what is the one Bible that the Roman Catholic church hates above all others? The King James Bible. Quite an endorsement, isn’t it?
As you can see, the Roman Catholic church is not the true
church, it has never been the true church, it has always been a counterfeit. Its
teachings are not based upon the Bible, but upon ancient pagan rituals. It
is not a religion that offers freedom and peace as the true Gospel of Jesus
Christ found in the Bible. It is a cult that enslaves its people and controls
them through fear!
Now it is
time to take heed to the voice of God calling to you:
As Christians, the Bible must be our final authority for everything.
We are not to put anything above the Bible ever! Not any church doctrine, creed, preacher, pastor, teacher, parent, spouse, law, nothing!
If the Bible says that something is Wrong then it is Wrong! If the Bible says that something is Right then it is Right!
If a person or a church finds out that one of their beliefs goes against the Word of God, then they must change their belief!
Revelation 22:18-19 “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”
We ought to Obey God rather than man!
Acts 5:29 “Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.”
Children are to obey their parents in the Lord!
Ephesians 6:1 “Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.”
Therefore, if a parent tells their child to do or believe something that God’s Word says is wrong, then the child is to obey God not their parents!
Wives are to submit to their own husbands as unto the Lord!
Ephesians 5:22 “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.”
Therefore, if a husband tells his wife to do or believe something that is against God’s Word she is not to obey her husband in that matter!
God will hold you accountable for what you do no matter who told you to do it!
The belief that God will not judge someone for a sin if a “spiritual authority” told them to do it is a lie of the Jesuits right from the pits of hell!
The Bible says in Romans 14:12 “So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.”
After the Holocaust the Nazi’s tried to say that they “were just following orders.” The Hague did not accept their excuse and executed them.
The Nazi’s were brainwashed by Catholic Jesuits into believing that committing murder was ok because they were obeying their authority.
Hitler was a Catholic! A Spanish newspaper reported on the day that Hitler died that the Catholic church had lost a favorite son.
The Jesuits are evil and have been responsible for every war and every U.S. Presidential assassination. (Read the Secret History of the Jesuits and the Alberto series of books published by Chick Publications.)
The Jesuits have been kicked out of several countries for their crimes of espionage and terrorism.
America needs to designate the Jesuits as a terroristic organization, shut down their schools , and kick them out of the Country, just like they did with Jihad!
It is not a matter of Religious Freedom, it is a matter of National Security!
Sex abuse is running rampet in Baptist Churches because the Jesuits have infiltrated them and become the Pastors!
In recent years more and more reports have been coming out about Pastors and other leaders in Baptist churches sexually abusing children, women, and even men, in their congregations.
The main reason that the victims give for submitting to the abuse is that they were taught by those wicked wolves in sheep’s clothing that they had to submit to pastoral or church authority regardless of what the Bible says.
Any one who teaches that, is a wolf and you had better flee from them, before they touch your children!
These predators are not saved! They are evil wolves in sheep’s clothing who are either Jesuits themselves or have bought into the Jesuit lie that anything is ok, if your spiritual authority says it is!
Why must God’s Word be our final authority for all faith and practice?
1. God’s Word is Truth!
Jesus said in John 17:17 “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”
Since God’s Word is truth, then anything that is not in agreement with God’s Word is a lie!
2.God’s Word is Pure!
Anything that disagrees with God’s Word is impure!
3.We are commanded to be holy!
1 Peter 1:15-16 “But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.”
We cannot be holy, if we do not obey God’s Word!
4.God has put His Word even above His own Name!
Psalms 138:2 “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.”
How dare we as mere sinful humans put anyone or anything above God’s Word, when He Himself has put it above His own Name!
Which Bible is the Word of God?
Before the Apostle John died he showed the Church at Antioch the True Greek Manuscripts of the Scriptures and entrusted those manuscripts to them. (There were already many false manuscripts before the Apostle John died and he worked hard to separate the false ones from the true ones.)
About 120 AD a group of Christians living in the Alps called the Vaudois (later known as the Waldensians) sent some of their people to the church of Antioch to have the Bible translated into their language of Old Latin and bring it home.
These people worked with the leaders of the church of Antioch for about 20 years to translate the whole Bible. It was finally done and they brought it home to their people.
This Bible was the first Latin Vulgate. (Not to be confused with the corrupted Catholic Latin Vulgate created from corrupted manuscripts from Alexandria Egypt about 500 years later.) All Modern versions come from those corrupted manuscripts. The Alexandrians were always corrupted, they disputed with Stephen in Acts 6:9. In the Bible Egypt is a type of the World, but the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch (Acts 11:26).
You can follow the history of the King James Bible directly from this first pure, non-Catholic Latin Bible translated from the Greek Manuscripts left at the church of Antioch by the Apostle John by reading the book “Did the Catholic Church Give Us the Bible? Written by David Daniels published by Chick Publications http://chick.com.
All Modern Versions Attack The Trinity
One of the first signs of a cult is that it will attack the Trinity, because if Jesus is not God, then His blood cannot save us, and if the Holy Spirit is not God then He cannot seal us and keep us saved.
Therefore, if there is no Trinity, then we are lost and cannot be saved!
The KJV says in 1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”
This is the strongest Scripture for the Trinity, yet all modern English versions of the Bible completely remove it!
If a first sign of a cult is that it attacks the Trinity, then these other versions are cult books, they are Not The Bible!
If you cannot trust them to lead you right concerning the Trinity, then how can you trust them to lead you right concerning anything else?
You can learn more about the History of the KJV by watching the Video below (The video starts later then the book mentioned above, in the year 1516 AD. the book I mentioned above is the best resource I have found that gives the History of the Bible From the Apostle John to the KJV, but the video below has a lot of good information in to too):
In closing, always be sure to obey God’s Word over anything else. God will hold you accountable for what you do, no matter who tells you to do it. And make sure you have God’s Pure Word, the KJV.
