“Take heed unto
thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt
both save thyself, and them that hear thee” (1 Timothy 4:16)
March 4, 2004 – We had a pretty
interesting last 8-9 days since my article on the “The Passion” movie came out.
We’ve had a steady 300% increase in “hits” on the website, peaking on Thursday
when we had an 800% increase over our normal traffic. Because of that, there has been not only a lot
of questions about my own personal position on the movie, “The Passion,” but
also questions on the doctrines and the prophetic implications of the movie. I
have determined that I was going to discuss those issues today as much as I
can.
It
is necessary for those of you who are listening at home (around the world), or
if you’re watching the video tape of this sermon, that you have a bit of
background on what it is we are going to discuss; so, if you are able, go to Lazarusunbound.com and read the original
article on “The Passion” that is posted on the front page. Secondarily, for background purposes, I’m
going to discuss some things in relation to a doctrine series that I did where
we discussed the doctrine of the Papal Antichrist and the False Prophet. These articles can be found at our website in
the “Critical Doctrines” section. If you
need to get rehearsed on those, please do.
Those
here in the homegroup, if you need to go back through those teachings, it would
help you understand what I am going to say today if you understand the historic
teaching of the Church (the historic Protestant Church) on who the Antichrist
is, who the False Prophet is, and those things.
If you can study those it will help you understand what we are going to
talk about tonight.
1
Tim 4:16, Paul writing to Timothy warns him and says:
“Take
heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this
thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.”
Anyone
who has even a cursory knowledge of the Doctrines of Grace knows that anything
that we do does not (and cannot) save us. There is nothing we can do to save ourselves eternally
as far as our salvation goes. Paul here
is talking about temporal salvation;
the salvation from the everyday calamities and curses that can come upon us for
disobedience and the hardships that also come upon us for all manner of disobedience. Paul says,
“Take
heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this
thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.”
We
should understand from this (and of course only a hard-core Arminian would come
to the conclusion after reading this that it is possible to save yourself) that
this is temporal salvation in view, and we also understand from this how
important doctrine is and the preaching of doctrine is.
With
all the hostile e-mails I have received over the last couple of weeks; last
week or so from pastors, I would say to them:
“What
doctrine is taught is very important. And, according to Paul, by teaching to
proper doctrine, it is possible temporally to save both yourself and other
people. You are responsible for the
souls placed under your care and you will give an answer for them, and if you
don’t warn people about things that are blatantly dangerous then that penalty
will be meted out on you personally
and on those who you failed to warn.”
This
is a very, very important thing we are studying here. Christian men throughout the history of the
Church, through study, prayer and revelation, have come to the conclusion that
the religious system would eventually, through time, evolve into a one-world
cult. This has been the teaching of the
Church since very early on. I’m going to go back 700 years, starting:
1. In 1310 with Dante Alighieri,
2. You can move
forward to John Wycliffe in 1379,
3. 1412 John Huss,
4. 1497 Savonarola, who was the
Italian Reformer,
5. In 1522 Martin Luther taught it,
6. In 1550 William Tyndale, who gave you the
text that became your KJV Bible, taught it,
7. In 1553-54 Latimer and Ridley, who
were killed for their faith,
8. Thomas Cranmer who was killed for
his faith in 1582,
9. 1587 John Foxe who wrote “Foxe Book of Martyrs”,
10. 1600 King James the 1st
who chartered the KJ Bible,
11. 1654 Thomas Goodwin,
12. In 1727 by Sir Isaac Newton,
13. In 1754 by Dr. John Gill.
Even
that hyper-Arminian John Wesley taught this fact
in 1764, that the Papacy was the antichrist and that the religious system would
evolve into a one-world cult in the end-times.
This
is the point I am making here - if you study history, specifically
if we study Christian history, you will come to the conclusion soundly that it
is impossible to believe that we are in the end-times, and at the same time deny
that the Church has taught throughout history that the last days religious
system would be apostate and would evolve into a one-world cult.
You
must (if you know anything about history of the Christian Church) come to the conclusion
that the most important feature of the last days religious system (if you
believe that we are in the last times) is its apostasy.
Why
in the world has the world religious system come to the conclusion that we are
in a great revival or that this movie particularly is going to be on the
forefront of a great revival? The Bible
prophesies general apostasy and shows that the religious system will be moving
into a one-world cult. When we see that the Protestant Movement is
steam-rolling right back to Rome, heading right
back to into the arms of the Pope, why in the world do they really believe that
we are in the last times?
They’ve
somehow separated in their mind with the teachings of the Church and what is patently
obvious about what is going on in the world.
All of these great giants of the faith (and thousands more, by the way)
were killed by the Papist Church; each pronouncing
at the risk of their own lives, that the Roman Catholic Church:
1.
Was
the Antichrist of the Bible.
2.
That
the Pope of Rome was the man of sin, the son of perdition .
3.
He
was revealed and has been revealed consistently for over 700 years.
For
700 years, the Church of Jesus Christ has come to the uniform conclusion that
the Pope of Rome and the Papacy were the Antichrist, and somehow over the last
100 or so years, this has been obscured beyond recognition and so this is an
underlying foundation of what I’m going to talk about tonight.
The
Great Deception that is spoken about in the scriptures says that “many will be
deceived”; in fact if you weren’t the very elect, you would be deceived. This is what we need to understand, when we
posted the article on “The Passion”, our position was very, very simple: the 2 nd commandment forbids
any images of the Godhead or any member of the Godhead. This was the
position of the Church from before the Protestant Reformation. It has been almost uniformly the position (and
I am going to read some quotes in a little while of the position of the
Reformers) of the Puritans and the Pilgrims and the Founders of this nation, that
to even make a picture of Jesus Christ was idolatry and a violation of the 2
nd commandment. All I’m saying is
that now, if I stand up here in the year 2004 and merely repeat what has been
taught in the Church for 700 years, we can find out exactly where we are on
God’s timeline by looking at how the world reacts to the statements that have
been the plain teaching of all our belief system for 700 years.
Histrionics
panic, absolute anger, hatred, threatened violence; merely for standing up and
saying, “Listen, the Church has always taught:
1. That we don’t make
any images of God, and,
2. That the Pope is
the Antichrist.”
So
now we should realize that if one of the Pope’s henchman makes an image of Christ, all he is doing
is trying to drag the protesting Church right back to Rome. So why did 100 million people have to die if all
we’re going to do is walk right back into the arms of Rome and act like nothing
ever happened? It is important that we
not only understand why this is going
on, but where we stand prophetically
because of what is evidently going on. So-called
“Protestant” ministries (it’s amazing to me if you look at the people in our
group here who have been on web forums that call themselves “protestant” all
over the country) have kicked our brethren off of their web forums merely for
repeating what the Church has taught for 700 years! They have kicked them off and said that “we
will have NO discussion or criticism whatsoever of the Roman church”. They say that somehow now, to criticize the
Antichrist, is hate and is un-Christian.
Think about that for just a moment if you would right before you lay
your head down tonight; just think about that sentence— in America today it
is considered un-Christian to criticize the Antichrist. For someone who says “well, we don’t believe the
Papacy is the antichrist”, I say “What you believe is immaterial. It is what the Bible says, it’s what the
Church has taught since the time Christ walked the earth.” The Bible teaches, and the Church has taught
that there would be the coming of a “man of sin”:
1. That man would take
upon himself the name of Christ,
2. That he would say
he is Christ’s representative
on earth,
3. That he would do
away with God’s laws,
4. That he would
institute his own laws,
5. That he would sit
as a moderator or some type of intermediator between God and man.
This
has been the prophecies that the Church has been watching for 2000 years, and
all we’re saying is that this has not only happened, but it has happened right
before they eyes of the Church! If
you’ll look around today—to say anything against it (the RCC) today—it makes
you a hater. It makes you somehow a “non-Christian.”
So-called “Protestants” today have united their efforts to legitimize the
Church of Rome and anybody who denies that fact is a liar and the truth is not
in them.
If
you go down the list of those who have supported this movie, you’ll not only
find a list of people who have continually, throughout their careers, supported
the Church of Rome; but they have either passively or actively written or
taught that the Church of Rome is a legitimate Church. They will say that although the Catholic
Church may have some errors that they are still Christian in nature. I will tell you this; you can be a lot of
things at a particular time and still be a Christian. You can be a whore and be a Christian. You can be a murderer and be a Christian. You can commit all manner of sins and still be
a Christian. But there is one thing you
cannot be and be a Christian — that is Anti-Christian. You can’t be Anti-Christ and be a Christian,
it is impossible; that is simple logic. I could spend some time here and go through
the scriptures and go through that with you, but it is patently true that you
can not be Anti-Christian and be a Christian.
Mel Gibson is a Roman
Catholic and is blatantly Jesuitical… I’m going to, here in a little while, go
back through the history of the Jesuit Order, a real quick run through with you
of their history of infiltrating short-robes (Jesuit agents) into different
positions, whether it be as activists in the theater and movies, actors, lawyers,
assassins like John Wilkes Booth who was a Roman Catholic actor, those types of
people… but Mel Gibson has over the past 10-15 years endeared himself to the
Christian community, I should say the so-called Christian community and the
Patriot community, through movies like Braveheart
and The Patriot. These movies, even his Conspiracy Theory - (even
though at the end of that movie it kind of made a joke out of conspiracies),
did expose some interesting things that are truly going on in the world -- but
because of these movies and his willingness to make them, Mel Gibson has made
himself a hero with the Patriot community and what we’d call the “Resistance-to-Big-Government”
community. Now, because of that, this
movie was a perfect setup. I quickly saw
when the Patriot movement started pushing this movie, that it had been the
perfect set-up. You can actually look
back and see how they (the Patriot community) were set-up. Some of them were just set-up and some of them
are people who have been planted within that movement, agitprops, agents
provocateur, etc. Specifically I would mention
Alex Jones who is evidently a Roman Catholic -- who sold himself as some kind
of patriot leader (who everybody ought to be very, very wary of) who is pushing
this propaganda big time. The Patriot
community, for the most part was already (and this is one of the reasons I
don’t participate or have anything to do with the Patriot movement):
1. Anti-Semitic.
2. Looking for a hero.
Mel
Gibson stood up to make a movie of a false “Christ” that matches the false “Christ”
that these people have made up in their heads – and you can see these people
rushing to embrace what they considered (and hoped) to be an anti-Semitic
movie. If the Jews didn’t like the
movie, you knew the Patriot movement would LOVE it. So the movie was tailor-made to take the
Patriot movement off the map and to bring them right into the same one-world movement
they spend page after page after page on the Internet saying they are against.
So,
Mel Gibson captured their imagination, fed right into what was expected of him.
The Roman Catholic church has subverted
and taken over the Patriot movement (of course we expected this for some time,
since the intelligence agencies that have infiltrated and controlled the Patriot
movement are all run by Catholics).
Let
me tell you really quickly that the whole idea that this movie, from the
beginning, that people came out against
this movie as anti-Semitic is a lie. Nobody
was against this movie. In fact, nobody
really knew what was going to be in the movie. The Jews had not come out against previous
movies about “Christ”, like the Jesus movie, which
showed some of the various things that these supposed objectors say they don’t
like about this movie. The fact is that
Mel Gibson began leaking that the movie was going to be boycotted because it
was anti-Semitic before anybody ever said anything, over a year before the
movie was to be released. It was part of
the plan.
Right
at the opportune time, a couple of globalist plants in the ADL who were
Jesuitical plants (who have always stood up to take the side of that particular
New World Order group) stood up and started saying that this movie was
anti-Semitic. Now that smells like a
plant to me; when nobody is saying anything and Mel Gibson suddenly comes out
and does interviews and says he is being attacked and his father has been
threatened because his movie is anti-Semitic; then all of a sudden you get a couple of talking heads in the ADL who
pop up saying the movie is anti-Semitic. This has been a diversion from the very
beginning to take attention away from the fact that the movie is Anti-Christian;
it is not anti-Semitic at all -- it is an anti-Christian movie. You see? It is very easy to take people’s minds off the
real issue when you start talking about something that doesn’t even matter. Since when has the Christian Church ever
consulted Judaism to decide if a movie is OK?
They never have, and all of a sudden this thing blows up and nobody asks
the question that’s really at the core of this —
ARE
WE SUPPOSED TO BE MAKING IMAGES OF JESUS CHRIST?
IS
THIS A VIOLATION OF THE 2 ND COMMANDMENT?
That
is the real question, you see, but that is the question that can’t be asked. The movie is anti-Christian, not anti-Semitic.
Nobody wanted to ask any questions about
Mel Gibson’s’ beliefs because
over the past 20 years, during the time that most of you and I have known each
other, the whole religious system has moved towards a full embrace of the Roman
Catholic system. If you follow the Charismatic
movement, the Promise Keepers or any of these other supposedly neo-Protestant
movements, every one of them, has embraced Roman Catholicism; so the fact that
Mel Gibson was a Roman Catholic didn’t raise anybody’s ire or concern whatsoever. Mel Gibson is not only Roman Catholic, but he is a pre-Vatican II Roman Catholic. There have been a couple of words about this
on the Internet, but most people don’t even know what that means when you say a
man is a pre-Vatican II Roman Catholic.
Vatican
II, which happened in the mid-1960’s, changed the way the Roman Catholic Church
operated. Prior to that, in the historic
Roman Church, the masses were done in Latin. According to many of the most conservative
members of the Roman Church, because of those traditions, the miracles that
they believe happened during the Mass, happened because of the tradition. So if the Mass is properly done in Latin, by a
properly ordained priest, then they believe that transubstantiation actually
happens during the Mass. Now, according to Mel Gibson, in his TV
interview with Diane Sawyer, he believes that when they stopped doing the Mass
in Latin, transubstantiation stopped happening. So he believes, other than in a few scattered
places, those miracles have stopped happening in the Roman Catholic Church. Most people don’t realize that the Pre-Vatican
II Catholics believe that this Pope -- John Paul II -- is the AntiChrist, and
they believe that the Vatican has become
AntiChrist. I get emails all the time from
Pre-V2 Catholics who send me info and agree with me that the Roman Church is
the antichrist; but I have to tell you that whenever you see insurrectionist
groups -- like pre-Vatican II Catholics — you can always find the black robe
(Jesuits) somewhere around there.
The
Pre-V2 movement has been infested with Jesuits since the very beginning. They don’t mind hating a Pope that goes
against their power. The Jesuits have
killed at least 2 Popes. You can find that information in “The Vatican Assassins”, by Eric Phelps. Any time there has been a liberalizing
movement in the Catholic Church, the Jesuits have started a counter-movement
just like they did with the pre-Vatican II movement at the time of Vatican II.
And so there is no surprise then to see Mel Gibson rise up out of the
pre-Vatican II Jesuitical Movement that happened about that time.
Mel
Gibson says he believes that transubstantiation has not happened (except in a
very few places) since the Vatican II. So he opened his own church that does the Mass
according to the old ways, according to the Old Latin. Because of that, he believes that the miracle
of bread and wine actually turning into Jesus, happens at his
church in California.
Some
of you may be saying, ‘what does that have to do with what we are talking
about?’ It has everything to do with what we are talking about because those
miracles and transubstantiation in particular, are what causes -- according to
the pre-Vatican II Catholics -- the Catholic Church to have the authority to
act against those who are heretics. You
see if you are a heretic yourself, you don’t have the authority to burn another
heretic, but if you are doing things right and the miracles are happening and
transubstantiation is happening in your church, then you then have the
authority to act out what the Jesuits proposed in the 15-1600s, which was the
destruction of all non-Catholics, even to the point of murdering them or
burning them at the stake, which is why they had the Inquisition.
We
ought to be very, very careful of this pre-Vatican II movement, even if it
seems on the surface like we both are against the Vatican. Sometimes war makes strange bedfellows, but do
not find yourself in bed with a pre-Vatican II Catholic just because you both
think this pope is the Antichrist. That
is what has happened quite a bit (especially in the Patriot movement).
This
is a classic dialectic. Let me tell you
how this works. In Soviet Russia it was
quite common to do what was called “the thaw.” What would happen is Stalin, or Khrushchev, or
Brezhnev, or whoever was in power, would start to liberalize and he would give
power and greater freedom to the intelligentsia and to the literary giants to
act with more freedom, and when he found out who his enemies were (this
happened in both in Russia and China, too) they would round them all up and kill
them or put them in the camps. That is
how they found out who your enemies are; you say, ‘oh, we’ve been too harsh,
we’ve acted too rashly, so we want to open things up.’ Then you round up anyone who sticks their head
out. If you get a book called, New
Lies for Old (I’ve got it here in the library), written by a man named
Anatoly Golitsen in 1985 before the fall of the Soviet Union, you will find
that he said that Perestroika and Glasnost was actually this same type of movement, only
on a bigger scale. They were going to
feign and fake the fall of the Soviet Union. They were going to put the West asleep and, at
its most vulnerable time, they were going to attack and destroy the U.S. That book was written and published in 1985,
and I have the book here in the library if anybody here wants to look at it. This tactic of pretending like you’re weak
when you are actually strong, actually (supposedly) came from the Chinese
writer named Sun Tzu. There are several
books out there show where Sun Tzu never really wrote The Art of War. It was actually written by a Jesuit priest,
and perfectly describes Jesuitical tactics. This is a Jesuitical tactic to pretend like
you are weak and that’s when you strike. So the Catholic Church has taken from Sun Tzu and from Stalin and from Khrushchev, this idea of
pretending like you are weak.
Now
if you’ll follow the liberalization movement that has happened under Pope John
Paul II (and going back to V2) you’ll know that every time that a major
disaster hits the Catholic Church — such as the problem they’ve had with
priests fondling little boys — it’s actually when the Roman church is on the
move to ecumenicalism. The biggest moves
they make to infiltrate and destroy the Protestant Churches are when they show
themselves to be weak. So, you have the
great movement like the Promise Keepers and all these ecumenical types of
movements (like the Charismatic movement which is purely Jesuitical) happen
while the Catholic Church acts like they are weak. When they have scandals and these types of
things is when you have to watch them, because that is when they are making
inroads into destroying Protestantism. This
has happened continuously — this dialectic where you act like you’re weak and when
the inevitable conservative backlash comes — you can say, “we
are getting rid of this old guard that was touching boys out there behind the
altar.”
The
conservative wing of the Catholic Church is the Mel Gibson’s’ pre-Vatican II
Catholicism. Everybody is sick of the
Catholicism that’s around today. So who
is going to complain when the Catholic Church says, “Hey listen, we’ve lost our
bearings, we’ve lost our direction, we need to go back to the old ways?” When you hear that and when they bring back
those things, that is when you have to be very, very careful.
The
dialectic is there. The plan started
during the Reformation and I wrote about this in Swarms of Locust, and
we also have some videos available (Swarms,
The Papal Presidency, etc.) If you haven’t read Swarms of Locusts, you need to read the book. The counter-Reformation
was started in the 1540’s at the Council of Trent. At the Council of Trent they decided they were
going to destroy Protestantism no matter what the cost. By doing so, the Jesuit Order was put in
control. They would infiltrate:
1. Universities
2. Colleges
3. Protestant
seminaries
4. Acting groups and
guilds
5. Doctors
6. Lawyers
7. All different
manners of businesses
By
doing so they would subtly push Protestantism to embrace the basic doctrines of
Catholicism without having the name and the evil weight that was associated
with those. That is what Swarms of
Locusts is basically about…the doctrines.
Counter-Reformation
began to accelerate at the end of the 1500s and you saw people like Robert
Bellarmine, Alcazar and Francisco Ribera begin to put forth prophetic views
that were designed to protect the Papist Church from the
accusation that the Pope was the Antichrist. You have to put yourself back in that time. By the 1590s it had already been taught within
the protesting groups for over 200 years, that the Pope was the Antichrist, the
Papist system was the Antichrist. You’ve
got a huge problem if you’re a Roman Catholic priest at this time because the
scripture is plain that all of the things that the RC Church was doing was a
fulfillment of prophecy about the “man of sin, the son of perdition.” So they put the Jesuits to work (and this is
all a matter of record), one on them, Alcazar, came up with the idea of ‘all
prophecy has been fulfilled back in 70 AD, there is no more prophecy to be
fulfilled.’ It’s called Preterism. Modern Preterists don’t like that fact, that
their pet beliefs are Jesuitical, but it is historical fact. Then you have another guy, named Francisco Ribera, and his friend Robert Bellarmine (both Jesuit
priests) who said, “Wait a minute, all prophecy is not going to be fulfilled until
the very end of time, so we don’t have anything to worry about now.” So either you believe it all happened in 70
AD, or it isn’t going to happen for 500 more years; either way, according to
them, the Pope is not the Antichrist.
Brilliant
move.
Those
teachings began to infiltrate through people like Scofield (and his Jesuit Bible);
they infiltrate the seminaries throughout America. At the turn of
the century, around 1900, is when these things began to infiltrate the US. They also, at the same time, began to
infiltrate the security apparatus of most of the western nations: spy agencies, police forces, the entire intelligence
establishment, and the media through their schools. Here in the U.S. the Jesuits run 33
major universities, like Georgetown University, Loyola, the University of Pittsburgh, and Xavier University. You can go down the list and some of the most
prosperous Universities in the U.S. are owned and
operated by the Jesuit Order.
The
intelligence apparatus of the U.S. began recruiting
almost solely at these schools in the ‘50s-‘60s. Many of the people who you see that run the
FBI and the CIA, all graduated from Georgetown University: George Tenet, the
heads of the FBI, people just like Bill Clinton, are all graduates of Georgetown University which is a
Jesuitical University. Their recruiting
out of these schools guaranteed that they had people who were like-minded and
who were also willing to advance their movement from stations of power.
All
this began to come together over the last 20 years when we saw the rise to
power in both the Democratic and Republican parties, people who either came out
of these same schools, or came from schools like Yale University (and most people
are aware of the Jesuitical/Masonic connection with Yale University). Two “Yalies” are John Kerry and George W.
Bush who has now been heralded by the entire so-called Protestant community, as
a savior, as a “christian” despite all of the evidence to the contrary, despite
all the evidence that his Christian beliefs are really more of a political ploy
than they are legitimate (if you have an opportunity we have a videotape called
“The Papal Presidency,” that shows this president’s connection to the Vatican
going back through his father and his father’s father, all the way back to Nazi
Germany). For those of you who aren’t
aware, Hitler, whom was a Roman Catholic controlled by the Jesuit
Order, modeled his SS after the Jesuit Order.
So
you see Jesuitism rising in the United States through the Charismatic
movement, through the great Pre-trib prophecy movement, and you see it growing
and growing especially over the last decade. At the same time they have gathered the
control of the major intelligence apparatus, the government itself, and the presidency
over the last 20 years.
Mel
Gibson played right into this, knowing that there was an anti-government
movement growing in this country in the early to mid 1980’s. He began making movies that played right into all
of this. At the exact same time, the great apostate religious phenomenon like
the Toronto “Blessing”, the Pensacola madness that was
going on, began what they called “the great new revival in America.” It may have been a revival in some kind of
religious piety but in reality was nothing more than a revival of Catholic
mysticism and ecumenism that has happened over the last several hundred years. We traced that in Swarms of Locust.
So
Mel Gibson, as he began to plan the rollout of this movie, played the
anti-Semite card and began gaining great attention toward this movie. Jesuit Zionists out of the ADL then came out
against the movie saying that it was anti-Semitic, which was a lie both on
their part and on the part of Mel Gibson.
So
we end up with the entire religious system in America and around the world
embracing a film that is not only flawed, not only a bad movie factually and
theologically, but one that is the most blatant violation of the 2 nd
commandment that has ever happened since Jesus Christ walked the face of the
earth. They not only are embracing it;
they are pushing it, hawking it, as if it is Jesus Christ Himself walking on
that flat screen. The indulgence pushers are back, and if you
don’t think that this is an indulgence you are wrong. You go down there and pay your ticket, and
the Catholic Church says that if you believe that movie, then you believe the
gospel and you are one of them. There is
a quote in my article on “The Passion” by the Pontifical Council which
basically says “If you deny this movie, you deny the gospel. If you embrace the
movie, you embrace the gospel.” That is
nothing but an indulgence; an indulgence for the price of a movie ticket. All of this is happening right under our eyes.
The
so-called prophecy hawks like Tim LaHaye, Grant Jeffrey and Hal Lindsey have
warned us about a coming “ecumenical movement” for the last 15 years, then the
minute the most blatantly ecumenical movie in history comes out, they all run
down to see it and say if you don’t go see it, something is wrong with you.
WHAT IS HISTORY
FOR?
Let
me ask you a question. What is history for? Why did God even give us a
historical perspective or the ability or the desire to record these things that
we think and believe through time? What
is history for if it is merely to be ignored? What is history for if we don’t learn anything
from it? If all we’re going to do is
wake up everyday as if nothing ever happened before then and make all our
decisions based on our five senses and what we think (which is to deify the
thoughts and sensations of our own brains) then there is no need for history. There is also no need to go forward because tomorrow is going to be
just as hectic and as Godless as today. History gives us the idea and the ability to
know that there is a plan being worked out through history and will be worked
out tomorrow. History is going
there. That is our hope.
The
reason I know I can trust God tomorrow is because the Holy Spirit has showed me
that men trusted Him 2000 years ago. People
trusted him all the way to the burning stakes 500 years ago. People trusted Him as they were being killed
by the Roman Catholic Church in the late 1500-1600’s. 100,000 Albigenses and Waldensians trusted
Christ as they were slaughtered by the Catholic Church. Hundreds of thousands of Huguenots trusted
Christ as they were nearly wiped out by the Papist Church. Here is a little FACTOID for ya – why do the
media get so worked up when some ignorant man like Mel Gibson’s father denies
the Holocaust (despite all the overwhelming evidence), when the OFFICIAL
position of the Church of Rome and their adherents is to deny the slaughter by
the Roman Church of 100 million people in the middle ages? Why don’t folks write to Mel Gibson and ask
him about that? History lets us know
that God can be trusted even in persecution and general apostasy. Christian men trusted God when they were
shoved on boats and kicked out of Europe in the 1600’s. Christian men have trusted God throughout all
of history. History has a purpose. That
tells me that I can trust God tomorrow and the next day and the next day until
my days on this earth are finished. I
can trust Him. The only way I can know
that is because I know history. Without history we end up in total and complete
despair.
There
is total despair when there is no history; because if I wake up and I have to
decide today what I’m going to believe based on my five senses and what is “happening”
to me, then there is no hope for tomorrow. There is no hope at all. I might as well end it all right now. The entire world is committing suicide because
they don’t know history. They are
killing themselves everyday because they don’t know history and if all you try
to do is tell them, “Let’s take a look at what the Puritans said and the
Pilgrims said and those of our forefathers said”, they say, “I’ll have none of
that history, I’m going to start off tomorrow like I started off today,
ignorant and stupid and fat! And I’m just going to keep killing myself until I
go to hell!” They might as well say
that. That is exactly what is going on. People are diving headlong into hell. It tells us in 1 st Timothy that we have the
ability, sometimes, God-willing of course, to stop them, to say to them, “Let’s
just take a look at scripture and see what that says. Let’s take a look at
history and see what those men said. Why
did they have the strength to carry on?”
There
is a love affair in this country with Roman Catholicism (or surreptitiously
through their doctrines) and with Mel Gibson in particular and with George W.
Bush. Nobody asks the hard questions. It hearkens back to the day of Hitler and
Stalin, especially the earliest days of Adolph Hitler. Here is another fact. The love affair with Hitler would have ended abruptly
if Protestant Germany had merely asked if the guy was a Roman Catholic. Do you understand that they didn’t have to
know anything about what the Nazi’s believed?
They didn’t have to know anything about his plans. The cradle of the Reformation was Germany. If they merely knew their history and they saw
a man rising up that not only was a Roman Catholic but was evidently a Jesuitical
agent (He came out of the ‘Theosophy’ movement with Madame Blavatsky – a purely
Jesuitical/Satanic construct), all they had to do was to say, “We’re not having
anything to do with that. We know their history.” Do you know their history? Do you know they have murdered and destroyed
every nation they’ve ever been a part of? Every nation that they ever get a hold of, God
destroys it Himself? You see?
The
same thing happened with Stalin. History
is continuous and now we have a love affair in this country with Mel Gibson and
George Bush. It hearkens the mind back
to the early days of Hitler and Stalin. Let me tell you a little bit about Hitler and
Stalin. Hitler invaded Poland. At the time he made all kinds of reasons why
it was important to invade Poland. In the back of his mind, of course, was the
domination of Europe and ridding
himself of the “Jewish” problem, becoming the king of the world. Very quickly, within a year or two, it became
evident to everyone on both sides that Hitler had lied to invade Poland. He lied.
The
Soviet
Union
invaded Czechoslovakia in 1968 to stomp
out the so-called “counter-revolutionary forces” that he thought were growing
in strength in Czechoslovakia. The fact was that the Czechoslovaks were
really going strictly by what the Communists have always taught. They didn’t
change with the Soviet Union.
The USSR changed. When they didn’t change, the Soviets called
that counter-revolution. So they invaded
based on a false pretense. They invaded Czechoslovakia in 1968, and it
was during a so-called “thaw,” the de-Stalinization in the Soviet Union. What they really did was that they used the
invasion as a reason to crack down on all resistance that was left in the
Soviet Union in 1968, and the days of Stalin came right back.
Let’s
look at our country. George W. Bush just
invaded Iraq and gave a long
list of reasons why it was necessary to invade Iraq. Here we are a year later and it is evident to
anybody on both sides that they lied to invade Iraq. But you know what you are told? “That’s not that important because Saddam was
a bad guy anyway.” The lies aren’t that
important, but at the same time the pretense
for the invasion of Iraq (the false and
lying war on terror) has allowed the Jesuitical forces in the intelligence
agencies in this country to rise to absolute power. You have Roman Catholics in charge of the
office of Homeland Security in Tom Ridge. You have other Roman Catholics as the top
generals in the office of Homeland Security. The head of the FBI and the CIA are all
Jesuits, raised and trained at Jesuit Universities. Here is the rise of the Jesuitical Order
through the Secret Services, the Secret Police, at the same time that the
leaders lie to invade another country. Now
tell me history doesn’t repeat itself… doesn’t it help to know your history? If you knew your history, you’d know a couple of
things right about right now:
1. We’re in trouble.
This country is in trouble.
2. We’re (us in the
true remnant) in trouble because I’m not going to shut up! I don’t plan on
shutting up about it.
You
can decide if you want to stick around for what necessarily happens to people
like us who decide we’re not going to shut up. History repeats itself. Welcome to the Gulags,
folks!
The
time is here. There was a cult of personality built around Stalin and Hitler. It was not safe to criticize the
administration. It wasn’t safe to
criticize the propaganda movies put out by Joseph Goebbles and all those
propaganda guys during Hitler’s time (Remember that Hitler gathered together
with the PASTORS first, in 1933). It wasn’t
safe to have an opinion other than that which the people in power told you that
you were going to have. I will tell you
after the last week and a half of e-mails, we are in a very dangerous
situation. I honestly believe that if I
said some of the things I’ve said tonight, some of the things I’ve said in that
article in front of a large crowd in this country, we would get stoned. These people are violent and if you haven’t
read some of their e-mails that I’ve put on the Internet, they are violently angry
at anybody who doesn’t support Mel Gibson, this movie and this President — they
are violently angry. The cult of
personality around Mel Gibson and George Bush is frightening.
Let’s
talk about persecution and censorship. During
the time of Hitler and Stalin and afterward, there was a strict form of
censorship in Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia. Quite often (I’ve been reading the memoirs of Aleksander
Solzhenitsyn this week) the censorship was not overt, which is surprising. The censorship was by intimidation.
There
was a publication system in Soviet Russia where you could go to journals (like Novy Mir) and you could have your books
or novels published by these journals. There
was a government censor who would read the book and say that there was some
things you could say and you couldn’t say, but most of the books produced in
Soviet Russia in the 40’s, 50’s & 60’s never made it to the censor. The reason they never made it to the censor
was because there was a cult of personality (a collective consciousness) that
decided that it’s not worth it to get in trouble over it, so we’re not going to
publish it anyway. Even if the journal
wanted to publish it, they wouldn’t even send it to the censors because they knew
it would bring repercussions.
There
was a counter-revolutionary freedom
force in Russia at the time, and
the word that they used was samizdat,
which literally meant “self-publishing”.
There were no censors in self-publishing
in Soviet Russia. People that think that
in Soviet Russia you could not have something published that was against the
“group-think” of Soviet Russia, you’re wrong. You could even go and self-publish a book that
said that Stalin was the Antichrist. For
the most part, unless it got very popular or leaked to the West, you would have
been somewhat safe, nothing lethal would probably have happened to you
(Solzhenitsyn published First Circle
and Cancer Ward, even Gulag Archipelago in samizdat). You probably would have been threatened, you
would have lost any party position, you would have lost your job, but you could
have gone and lived on a farm somewhere or lived out in the woods like
Solzhenitsyn did and you would have been relatively fine. There was not the overt persecution that
people have in their minds against most people that published in Russia. Samizdat
was a system of publishing that was quite often used by the resistance; in fact
most of Solzhenitsyn’s books were published through samizdat. This was a system
of self-publishing that just bypassed the censors.
Recognize
all the parallels. In Soviet Russia you
had one guy running for office. At least
they weren’t hypocrites. You were
allowed to vote for the one guy that worked for the Communist Party. In America we are just
hypocrites, because we put two guys who were in the same club, the same
fraternity in college, running for president. You can have flavor A, or flavor B. That is
the way this cult of personality works.
Now,
none of my books have been accepted by a mainstream publisher, not one. In fact, we had a mainstream publisher for Swarms
of Locusts , who accepted the book. They
said they read it and loved the book, and they then got threatened by Marty
Stacy, Dave Hunt and the Arminian so-called “Christian” mainstream publishing
cult a couple of days before we signed a contract on the book. They suddenly decided that they had misread
it and that it was a horrible book and they couldn’t publish it, which is
exactly what happened in Soviet Russia in the 50’s and 60’s. The publishers realized that the book was
unpublishable under the current cult of personality. It is my opinion (and maybe some brave
publisher out there wants to prove me wrong) that it is impossible to have a
book published today (outside of our own samizdat),
a legitimate book that challenges or criticizes:
1. The one-world cult
religious system
2. This particular President
(unless it is within the realms of the Jesuitical system of bi-jesuitical politics, like if you are
a liberal Democrat you are allowed to criticize the president because whether
John Kerry wins or George Bush wins, hey, you still have a Jesuit in the White
House who went to Yale and was a member of the “Skull and Bones”.)
Let’s
see if I’m wrong. If history holds true,
there will be tens of thousands of people who will either hear this sermon or
read the transcript of it. Let’s see if
some publisher out there believes that there is still room in America for true, pointed
religious debate and differences of opinion.
If
you want to get a book published… I guarantee, I challenge the people who are
listening to my voice… we’ve had 180,000 hits to the website in the past week,
and I can’t get a book published in this country. Check it out for yourself. Think about that. Tell me that we’re not in the same age of Soviet-style
censorship… now I can go through self-publishing, through America’s samizdat, and as long as the book
doesn’t become too popular or something doesn’t leak out to the wrong people,
then probably I’m fairly safe in this country.
We’ll see how long that lasts.
There
is a need in this country for brave men and brave women who refuse to cow-tow
to the type of terrorism and threats that we’ve had over the past week. We need a new literature in this country that
exposes this system. You can not overwrite what we are talking about
today. There is an inexhaustible amount
of information and we need people out there with some talent, with the ability
to expose this system, to write true literature that we can get out to the
people. It worked in Nazi Germany, and it worked in Russia. Resistance works.
What
God plans to do with it after we write it, I don’t care. We need people of
courage, people who don’t care about persecution and censorship, personal
slander and those types of things. We need true resistance literature in this
country – that literature does not now exist.
(MB’s note: I’m not
really talking about underground “expose” books, those are great, but there are
plenty of those. The system has
succeeded in marginalizing those materials and writers so that no one will read
them. I’m talking about real literature
– “fiction” books, short stories, etc. that show the reality. The Soviet Union was inexorably weakened by such literature.)
When
most of the people on my e-mail list and most of the people who are supposedly
in the resistance in this country, listen to somebody like Alex Jones, a Roman
Catholic liar who is now pushing this movie, we’ve got a problem, because the
enemy is controlling the resistance. What we need is true resistance literature in
this country. It is time for heroes, and
it’s time for martyrs and it’s time for people to stand up and talk about those
things that somehow that cult of personality has decided can’t be talked about…
I will tell you this, I’ve had dozens of e-mails from people, from forums and
elsewhere, from people who received my article who’ve said, “Finally, somebody
said the unspeakable.”
Think
about that.
We
just finished going through a quick review of history going through Stalin,
Stalinism, the cult of personality, censorship and publication, propaganda in Hitler’s Germany, etc.; and the
point, of course (as we move forward specifically tying it to the movie, “The
Passion”), is that now the ecumenical movement has a new impetus. We see the emergence of the One World Cult
embracing Catholic doctrines and Catholic mysticism through not only this movie,
but through that which has happened through the charismatic movement, Promise
Keepers, the Vineyard movement, the Prophecy movement, and those things that have
thrived in the last several years.
The
enemy now is arrayed for battle. Their flags are unfurled. They are surrounding the elect. We once thought we were small when it was just
those of us who believed and understood about the New World Order. Then the Lord let us into the full knowledge
of the Doctrines of Election and the Doctrines of Grace and we realized how
truly small we really are. And now we
see the largest propaganda movement by the Jesuit Order counter-reformation
since the 1530’s, and we see how truly minuscule the elect of God truly is.
So
many people have been deceived by this movie that it is more and more difficult
to cut through the rhetoric. I want to talk about the responses to any
criticisms to the movie.
It
is evident now that any criticism to the movie is not only anti-Catholic but is
hate. I explained to one of my attackers
this week after he said, “Why do you hate the Catholic Church?” I said, “Well, it’s not necessary for me to
discuss why or if I hate the Catholic Church. God hates the Catholic Church. The reason he hates the Catholic Church is
because it is Anti-Christ. It is very
simple. That doesn’t take a lot of deep reasoning
and understanding to see that God hates Anti-Christ. That is completely reasonable for God to hate
that which hates His Son and tries to draw away and destroy souls. God hates the Catholic Church”.
They
will say, “Why do you hate Catholics?” I
don’t have any regard (as in an emotion) whatsoever for Catholics or so-called
Protestants or Mormons or anything else like that. I have the same regard for them (because they
were created in the image of God) that I have for any fellow man. So I believe that I don’t have the right to
murder them. If one of them is hungry, I
believe I should feed them. If one of
them is injured, I believe we should take care of them. If one of them is thirsty, I believe we should
get them a glass of cool water. I even
pray for them to be regenerated, but, I don’t believe that there is any
requirement for me to have an emotional attachment to that which hates God. I have no regard for them in that way
whatsoever.
What
they are calling hate… let me give you a quick review of what hate is in America today… If I don’t
care (emotionally) about something, but you don’t like what I say — that’s
hate. If you hate me, then I am guilty
of hate. If I come up to someone who is
a homosexual and the homosexual blatantly yells out and flaunts his
homosexuality, and I say, “God hates homosexuality”, they’ll say that’s hate, even
if I have no hateful emotion at all: I have no hatred, no anger, I’m merely
telling them what the Bible says, Psalm 5:5:
“¼thou hatest the all workers of iniquity.” I have no emotion about it one way or
another. However the homosexual is mad
as hell because I had the courage in this day of the cult of personality and
political correctness to say it! He is
burning with hatred for my insolence! He
hates me for saying it, so he says, “You hate!” He projects his hatred on me. If I send out an article that merely says what
was the consistent position of the Protestant Church, even before the
Protestant Reformation, even going back 700 years; that the Church believed
that you absolutely could not make any likenesses of the Godhead (that has been
the teaching of the Church for 700 years); if I say that, they say, “Well, you
hate Catholics.” I don’t hate Catholics.
You hate me. You hate me because I have the guts to tell
you the truth and what the Bible says, you see?
You want to shut me up. You are
burning with hatred because somebody got out of your fascist party line.
Hatred
is no longer something that I feel for someone else; it is what someone feels
for me. I’m guilty of hate if someone
hates me. That’s what happens in the
cult of personality that is America today.
Let’s
discuss the destruction of the Bible as the foundation for truth. One of the greatest lessons for the students
here, at our little chicken farm/theological seminary over the last week, has
been to debate this issue on the Internet forums all around the country and
around the world. The one lesson the
students here have learned is that no one cares about the Bible any more, don’t
bring that out as evidence. Flat out! I got an e-mail from a lady who posted my
article on a forum and the guy wrote his answer, “Of course the movie is an image, of course it’s an image of God. We
all need pictures and idols of God so we’ll know what to worship.” That’s
what he wrote!
The
brothers here will tell you that they have received e-mails much the same, that
either say, “Well, I’m not worshipping the picture; I’m not worshipping the
movie, so it must be all right.” These
people don’t know anything about the 2 nd commandment or its purpose,
and when you bring up what the purpose is, they just call you a hater, and they
delete you, they kick you off the forum, religious censorship. Now this is not a guy proposing Mormonism or
some other cult. This is not proposing
some heresy. This is merely stating what
the True Church itself taught from
the Reformation until just a little while ago.
A forum is supposed to be a place for discussion of issues. But discussion is only available for those
who are part of the One World Cult. If
you’re not part of the cult and you’re willing to say… in one of the cases, I
believe it was Alex, he just posted a scripture
and got 11 pages of tirades from people that were mad because he dared to post
a scripture! Alex just posted the
scripture, the 2 nd commandment.
One guy called it a subtle way of attacking the Catholic Church! On a so-called “Protestant” forum!
So
you see that they have destroyed the idea that the Bible is the foundation of
truth. I got into a long — 12-13 page --
e-mail conversation with a lady. She was
very shrill at the very beginning (typing with all caps with exclamation points)
about how angry she was that I was willing to write this article. So I began to talk to her about the doctrines
of Grace and about the Bible
and her first response was, “Well, everybody interprets the Bible differently."
Isn’t that convenient? That means we all have our own Bible and
whatever it means to you is just fine and whatever it means to me is just
fine! Well, that’s fine as long as there
is never a Day of Judgment, because I can tell you that the final Judge is
going to use it pretty objectively, it won’t be subjective at all. Your opinion won’t count on Judgment Day, I can
promise you. What you think about the Bible
will have nothing to do with your final judgment before Jesus Christ. You know what is going to matter? What it (the Bible) says is going to matter. Your interpretation and my interpretation are
immaterial because the Bible says what it says. There is not room for your interpretation and
my interpretation. Now, don’t get me
wrong, I absolutely believe my interpretation is right.
