Preface
Greetings! The following presentation is volume
thirty-four of a 36-volume production of some 6,000 pages on “Ezekiel and
YHWH’s Judgment for the Good News People,” all of which is on the Internet at
the www.age-end.com web site.
This overall effort provides an
interpretation of the Good News message in the New Testament, its linkage to
the book of Ezekiel, and an application of both to the age-end prophecies
relating to certain nations and peoples now out in the world. In order for this single volume to be
understood and comprehended, it is imperative that the study be read from its
beginning--from page one of volume one.
Anyone trying to read this volume or
the study’s 6,000 pages at any mid-point will end up in a state of confusion
without having read and digested the preceding material. It is crucially important that this work be
read in sequence from its beginning--otherwise, the reader will almost
certainly end up missing the essence of the message!
The
effort was originally set on a Macintosh computer with Microsoft Word
6.0.1. It was set in Helvetica, 12-point
type (18 pt on chapter headings); single line spacings; and margins: left 1.2”, right 0.8”, top 0.7”, bottom 0.8”
and footer 0.6” (for page numbers).
For
further information on obtaining this study in 18 computer floppy disks
(IBM-formatted, high density, 2HD, 1.44 MB, 3 1/2 inches); in a single CD-Rom;
or in hard copies (when the Internet or a compatible computer is not
available); please write the publisher at the above address and send a stamped,
self-addressed, long (legal-size), return envelope.
With a CD-Rom or computer floppy disks,
the study is readable on Macintosh (systems 5.0 and later) or IBM/compatible
(with Microsoft Word-Windows) personal computers. May The Great CREATOR and SOVEREIGN OF THE
UNIVERSE bless you as you study His word to learn His will and to obey
Him. Shalom (peace) to you and
yours!

Chapter
541--The Christian Dilemma I
YHWH Requires True Worship
In
prior chapters, some powerful Scriptural evidence was presented and commented
upon which establishes that YHWH The ELOHIM requires (actually demands!) that
His true followers must worship Him in truth (Jo 4:24). He will not accept or be pleased with homage
that is founded upon lies, deceptions and pagan sun worship; and regardless of
the attitude and “good” emotional feelings of the sun worshipper.
If
there is any doubt whatsoever about this need for truth, then all one has to do
is spend a little time in research with a good concordance. For this project, the student of truth should
concentrate his/her attention on the question of prayers which was briefly
mentioned before.
What
does it take for The ELOHIM to answer a prayer?
Does He automatically listen to each one (as sun worshippers believe)
and then decide upon an answer of yes or no?
Probably,
the most profound verse in the Book on this theme was written by Shlomo when he
said that “He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law (the Torah), even
his prayer shall be abomination” (Prov 28:9).
Now, Christians generally have proclaimed that the law was done away
with, and they turn their ears from it.
Will YHWH listen to their abominable prayers?
As
discussed in a prior chapter, the Scriptures communicate (repeatedly, over and
over) that The MOST HIGH will not even listen to or attend to the prayers (of
petition) of people in sin and that He does listen to the prayers of the
persons obeying His commandments (II Chron 7:14-15; Job 8:5-6; 35:12-13; Ps
9:10; 10:17; 34:15-17; 66:18; Prov 15:8-9, 29; Isa 1:15; 59:1-3; Mic 3:4; Zech
7:12-13; Jo 9:31; Jas 4:3; 5:16; I Pet 3:12; I Jo 3:22).
Another
most extraordinary text was written by the Psalmist when he declared that YHWH
is “nigh unto all them that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth”
(Ps 145:18). Is anyone so stupid to
believe that people can call upon The ELOHIM in lies and false worship and
expect that He will be near to them?
Sun Worship Involves Customs, Practices
and Beliefs
Previous
chapters in this production have established that Christianity and the modern,
Western, Christian culture are just full of sickening sun worship. Many people erroneously assume that sun
worship consists only of those situations where the worshipper assumes a
prostrate position to bow before the sun.
Of
course, some sun worshippers do bow and pray to the sun, especially facing the
rising sun (as Christians do at their Easter sunrise services, and as Yechezkel
testified at Ezekiel 8:16), but most of the practices and customs of sun
worship are substantially more subtle, discreet, advanced, sophisticated and
acceptable in today’s civilized sun worship society than merely bowing and
praying before the rising sun.
For
example, Christmas is certainly a sun worship custom (as was described earlier
in this work) since it is the sun (not The SON) that is born at the winter
solstice. In fact, most all of the
historic sun gods were born on December 25th (like Mithra, Chrishna, etc).
In
the Christian West, in the lands of the House of Yisrael, everything stops on
Christmas day (and often the day before and the day after). Even the wild, fanatical Christmas parties,
orgies and celebrations usually take a break on Christmas day. Beyond an occasional siren, there is little
to disrupt the Christmas day stoppage.
Conversely,
in the modern state of Israel, everything stops on Yom Kippur. As is true in the Christian West, it is
possible to hear an occasional siren.
But generally, Yom Kippur is quiet, peaceful and a set apart day for
fasting and worship. In this contrast,
who is obeying The HIGHEST--the Israelites in the Christian lands (like in the
Christian Identity movement) or the Jews in Palestine?
Other
sun worship practices include observing Easter in preference to YHWH’s
Passover, Sunday in contrast to YAH’s Sabbath and using names, titles and words
linked to the sun god like “God, Lord, Jesus, Christ, Church and Holy,” in
difference to using Hebrew names and titles found in the Book.
Truly,
most Christians dismiss these sun worship customs out of hand, as being
unimportant and irrelevant to their supposed good deeds, feelings, faith and
salvation. But are these things
unimportant and irrelevant? Can they be
dismissed out of hand?
Not Only What But How!
The
reader can answer those questions by checking Deuteronomy 12:30-31 where The
HIGHEST not only condemns the worship of false deities; but also, the matter of
“how” the pagan peoples worshipped those deities. “How” certainly includes, among other things,
the observation of Christmas, Easter and Sunday, and using words in worship
linked to the sun god.
The
Prophet Yirmeyahu likewise had some perceptive ideas along this same line when
he wrote his famous condemnation of Christmas trees. Yirmeyahu opens his very clear indictment
with a charge to The ELOHIM’s people of the House of Yisrael to “learn not the
way of the heathen” (Jer 10:2).
Verse
three in this presentation (Jer 10:3) is more explicit in telling the
Israelites that the customs of the heathen are vanity (worthless, useless and
empty pride and certainly nothing which should be adopted by followers of
Truth). The “Soncino Books of the Bible”
correctly interpret this word customs as “religious practices and beliefs.”
Yirmeyahu
also had another most extraordinary observation about the customs of the women
of Yehudah to burn incense to the Babylonian Queen of Heaven (Ishtar or Easter)
and bake cakes for her (hot cross buns).
These women did this evil in Yehudah and proceeded to continue the
practice in Egypt where they had fled for supposed safety (Jer 44:14-19).
The
importance of this indictment is that these sins were done by the women with
the tacit approval of their husbands, as manifested in their apathy and
indifference toward the whole question (Jer 44:19). In other words, the charge was against both
the women and their men.
Though
the men were not directly involved, they still carried guilt for standing by
and indifferently allowing the evil to proceed.
The men had a moral duty to exercise leadership and dominion over their
women and to intervene and stop the false worship practices. But they ignored their duty and responsibility.
They Wouldn’t Quit
This
presentation by Yirmeyahu also brings out another fascinating fact. The women said that they were not about to
stop their evil practices because they enjoyed the fat of the land while they
were following these evil customs in Yehudah.
When they temporarily stopped this sin, they lacked every thing (Jer
44:17-18).
When
judgment falls upon the US from Russia and an Islamic alliance and Americans
have to abandon Easter worship, will they then recall the years of prosperity
that they enjoyed while keeping Easter?
Will they thereupon lament over how wonderful things used to be?
Or
will they then be able to put two and two together and realize that it has been
the Easter keeping (and other sun worship practices) which has brought on the
judgment? Will they then repent for
having kept Easter all of those years?
Maybe, they won’t initially see their wrongs. But Yakov’s Trouble of seven years will
ultimately make the survivors repent. In
time, they will understand!
And
of course, there was furthermore the previously mentioned remark by YESHUA that
true believers must worship The SOVEREIGN in spirit (by the mind, heart,
attitude, mental faculties and intellect, etc., as opposed to physical acts
done for the sake of pride, show off or something similar where the
worshipper’s heart just isn’t in it) and in truth (Jo 4:24). People can’t please The EL with false
worship.
The Secular State
Today,
the United States is a secular state.
The historic sun worship society is essentially a secular society and
culture; at least, in a generic sense.
Admittedly,
Americans claim to be Christians while they practice and believe in the
historic, Christian, sun worship ideas.
Though not being particularly religious, the sun worship culture and
civilization does allow and promote sun worship practices and customs.
Thus,
while the whole culture and civilization function on the basis of historic sun
worship, it exists as a largely secularist state. Therefore, the secularist sun worshippers
just about all observe or keep Easter, Christmas, Sunday and the sun worship
calendar, and have attitudes of sun worship in their social, economic,
educational, political and governmental dealings.
But
the present Christian sun worship practices and rituals are all for show
purposes with no substance in terms of the heart. Religion has been largely removed as a focus
for the hearts and minds of the collective people.
A
paradox then ensues because the people are “supposedly” not religious. Yet, their whole culture, life and
civilization (in terms of social, economic, educational, political and
governmental attitudes and practices) are totally sun worship and based upon
the practices of the old sun cults (which theoretically were motivated and
inspired by the sun worship religion).
Hence, the peoples in both cases react and live the same way.
Persons
today not only ignore The True YHWH YESHUA and His Torah, but they even largely
ignore their own sun god, the effeminate, long-haired Gee-Zeus, and the
teachings attributed to him by false Christianity. This indifference and apathy toward their sun
god extend to their human mediators chosen to interface between them and
him.
Consequently,
some Mormons are beginning to ignore the words of their prophet Joseph Smith,
some Seventh day Adventists are starting to disobey Ellen White and the same
thing is happening for some followers of other human prophets and charismatic
leaders.
Historically,
the Christian suckers may have ignored Gee-Zeus, but they sure tried to obey
their modern prophets and human leaders.
By rebelling against their church prophets and leaders, obvious
confusion then surfaces for Mormons, Seventh day Adventists and similar persons
devoted to some fake Christian founder or big shot.
Even the Feasts Ignored in Tanakh
History
Based
upon this present backdrop, it is evident that there are problems within
Christendom on the question of set apart times and festivals. Somehow, Christian and secularist Israelites
have always liked pagan sun worship festivals, instead of Scripturally
appointed times.
Actually,
one of the things that some modern people have found, as they search the
Scriptures, is a need to start obeying YHWH’s annual festivals--Passover,
Pentecost, Tabernacles, etc (Lev 23), as elsewhere discussed herein. At a first impression, one would suppose that
surely the ancient Israelites observed those feasts. Well not so, or at least, not much so.
During
the days of the good king Yoshiyahu, he and the people held a Passover festival
in his 18th year. And YHWH’s Word is
careful to tell us that this type of Passover was the first one kept by the
people since the days of the Judges (II Kg 23:22-23).
In
the days of Nechemyah and Ezra, the people kept Sukkot and dwelt in booths, per
the Word. This was the first time for
such worship since the time of Yehoshua, almost 1,000 years earlier (Neh 8:17).
Assuredly,
the point of all this is that the Israelites never did make any effort
collectively to properly worship The SOVEREIGN.
Whatever worship they did do was typically mixed in with pagan sun
worship, just as it is today in Christian Yisrael lands. Nothing has changed in the last 3,500
years.
Ezekiel 8:16
In
an article on Sukkot (“Prophecy Flash,” p. 31, Nov-Dec 1997, previously cited),
William F. Dankenbring, apparently quoting Alfred Edersheim and the Talmud,
said that in YESHUA’s day, the priests would march in procession to the East
Gate and turn and face the Temple to the West while proclaiming “Our fathers
who were in this place stood with their backs to the Temple and their faces
eastward and worshipped the sun, but our eyes are unto” YHWH.
This
ceremony took place at the dawn of each day during Sukkot in Second Temple
times. It apparently was based upon a
form of confession of the sins of ancestors (Lev 26:39-42; Jer 16:19) and
repentance over the event in Ezekiel 8:16 (that probably did happen in
Yechezkel’s day, but which was evidently prophetic of a coming, Christian, sun
worship, Easter, sun-rise ceremony to defile the future Third Temple, as noted
earlier).
Though
the Jews in Second Temple days may not have fully understood the ultimate
significance of this ritual that they were following, the truth is that the
real, typical Ezekiel 8:16 appears to be still future here in 2003.
The
actual prophecy will one day take place in a Third Temple when real Israelites
will worship the rising sun to the East.
The people will likely be Christians--who have come to Jerusalem from
their judged House of Yisrael nations.
The whole context of Ezekiel 8 concerns these sun worshipping Christians
who bring their abominable sun worship practices into the Temple of YHWH,
either at Sukkot or Passover time.
If
Christian Israelites would have been observing Sukkot throughout the years, and
if they had any appreciation at all for Second Temple Judaism and repentance
over the described sun worship in Ezekiel, maybe they could have followed this
ritual from Second Temple days, annually, like the Jews used to do--in order to
offer a form of regret over the evil sun worshipers, mentioned in Ezekiel.
If
this ceremony of repentance would have been going on at Sukkot (or ideally, at
Passover), maybe some of these Christian sun worshippers of the lost tribes
would have awaken and realized how incredibly wicked and depraved their
Christian religion is and how evil Christians will one day in the future defile
the Temple--just as Yechezkel describes.
Both
Yechezkel’s prophecy and the ancient Second Temple ritual are most profound
with far reaching teachings and admonitions.
What a shame it is that the Jews used to follow the repentance
ritual--all the while that Israelites of the lost tribes could care less about
something which one day they will fulfill.
Yes,
evil Christian Israelites will seemingly come to the Third Temple in the future
and defile it with their Christian sun worship paganism and by actually facing
the rising sun in a ceremony (evidently near Passover, in an Easter, sun-rise
ritual).
Moreover,
one day in the millennium, when the descendants of these sun worshippers keep
Sukkot or Passover, they probably will perform the Second Temple ritual done by
the Jews when they turned their backs to the rising sun and repented over the
sun worship evil of their ancestors.
Manifestly, in the millennium, it’s highly likely that saved Israelites
will follow that Jewish ritual to the letter (as described in the Talmud).
Acts 7:42, Revisited
With
this history, one can now begin to appreciate and grasp the enormous import of
Stephen’s charge at Acts 7:42 (mentioned before). What happened was that because of sin, YHWH
gave upon and abandoned the House of Yisrael to the worship of the host of heavens,
when He divorced her during the Assyrian conquests in the 7th and 8th centuries
BCE. This “how” involves both practices
and beliefs.
The
House of Yisrael (not the non-divorced Jews, however bad and however wretched
they have been) has followed this established pattern of sun worship ever since
its inception, unto this very day in 2003 CE.
Of course, Stephen would be aware of this situation since the New
Testament was written to, about, and for the House of Yisrael.
The
prophet Yeshayahu must have also had this Israelite transition to sun worship
in mind when he wrote about The ELOHIM’s abandonment of the House of Yakov
because “they are full of the practices from the East” (Isa 2:6-8). “Soncino Books of the Bible” (p. 11)
identifies this East, as being East of Canaan, in the lands of Syria and
Babylon, where historic sun worship flourished.
Former
Christian Darrell W. Conder makes the case that the end time Israelites (of the
ten lost tribes) would be worshipping at the feet of the sun god Baal. He declares that Christianity perfectly
fulfills the prophecies of end-time, Israelite, Baal worship (“Mystery Babylon
and the Ten Lost Tribes in the End Time,” p. 1).
Christian Reactions
Despite
what The ELOHIM clearly states in His word, Churchianity regularly chooses to
substitute her ideas and concepts of righteousness for YHWH’s laws and Words
which establish and define righteousness.
This is the real world of Christian faith, over and over. Earlier, mention was made of the situation regarding
Cain and Abel.
The
first Sabbath day in creation week, YAH seemingly instructed Adam and Eve on
His laws (the Torah). Apparently, the
next day (Sunday), Satan called on them to present his teachings. When Adam and Eve sinned, and when they were
exposed, as being “naked” from that sin, an interesting thing took place.
YHWH
had evidently instructed them on the requirement of a blood sacrifice and
offering to pay for sin. And that’s the
apparent symbolism one can find in the reference to the coats of skins which
provided a “covering” for them (Gen 3:21).
The covering was surely the sin offering of blood. The reader knows what later happened. Abel obeyed The SUPREME and offered blood
(Heb 9:22).
Cain
substituted his own wisdom and wishes (was he one of the first ascetic, animal
rights advocates?) and offered some produce from his garden (Gen 4:2-4). Is it not quite manifest that Kain justified
in his heart and mind his offering and attempt at worship? Never mind what YHWH said, Cain meant well
didn’t he? Or did he? Wasn’t he sincere? Or was he?
Of
course, Christians are just like Kain.
They will always spout off their mouths about having good hearts and
attitudes. Most Christians proudly think
that they have good hearts--all the while that they are in utter contempt and
rebellion toward YHWH and His Torah. The
truth is that one cannot have a good heart or good attitude if he or she is
rolling in sin by being rebellious toward YAH’s Torah.
In
the just completed discussion of YHWH’s condemnation of not only pagan sun
worship; but particularly, of the practices, customs and activities of sun
worshippers in terms of “how” they worshipped (Deut 12:30), the point surfaces
that Adam man is not free to establish his own worship procedures.
Not
only should Adam worship The HIGHEST, but he must worship The HIGHEST as The
HIGHEST specifies. Consequently, The
MOST HIGH’s worship practices were not set aside or compromised in order to
meet the wishes of animal rights activists and political liberals in the days
of the operation of the Temple on Mount Moriah.
Thus,
it is not Adam man who has received authority to determine “how” to
worship. Adam man can never decide the
question of how. Instead, It is The
ELOHIM, in person, Who makes those decisions and establishes them as immutable
laws. The only issue or option facing
Adam man is whether he is willing to read, study and learn of those laws (in
the Torah) with a view of obeying them or not.
YHWH Sets the Standards of Truth
YHWH
has decided upon what constitutes true worship.
He has defined and established what is righteousness in the context of
His Torah.
For
another aspect of this reality, man is in no position to look over those
mitzwot and attempt to pick and choose which ones constitute righteousness and
which are deserving of his obedience.
Christians,
in particular, to include almost all of the Seventh day Sabbath keeping groups,
like to pick and choose which of YHWH’s laws that they wish to obey. They then like to brag and show off over the
few laws that they do obey. A preceding
discussion on pride focused upon an elderly, gentlemen friend of this writer
and how he obeys several of YAH’s law, but then disobeys others that do no
appeal to him.
This
rebellious and wicked practice of picking and choosing, by particularly
Christian Israelites, is wrong. Clearly,
this type of mix can never constitute and be acceptable as true
worship--despite its popularity and acceptance by the global mass of sun
worshippers. A different approach is
called for. In other words, Israelites
must worship in truth, as decided by The ELOHIM (Jo 4:24).
In
short, it’s not just a matter of totally what is in the heart (although that
factor is important, as John 4:24 indicates).
But it’s also a primary stipulation that such worship must be done in a
physical, procedural sense, as YHWH has ordained. If a man is unwilling to obey the physical
instructions of worship, manifestly, his heart is in the wrong place.
Thus,
if YAH says for Israelites to stand on their heads and look cross eyed at the
sky, then all Israelites should do that precisely and not attempt to substitute
some other action on the premise of human judgment and that their hearts mean
well.
This
writer has heard heathen Christians for decades justify and support their
pagan, sun worshipping, Christmas celebrations on the basis that they mean well
and that their hearts are in the right places, despite the evil features of
Christmas and their other sun worship customs.
How utterly stupid and ridiculous this is. One’s heart can’t be in the right place when
he/she is acting contrary to YHWH’s Word.
Chapter
542--The Christian Dilemma II
The Christian Gospel of Killing, Murder
and Torture
Beyond
the discussion in the previous chapters on the evil in the contemporary
Christian civilization, there is one more incredible fallout of the Christian
world. For 2,000 years, Christians have
been murdering and killing each other, all over Christian Europe, in wars,
intrigues, conflicts and hate and often under the leadership of Christian
priests and preachers.
In
the 1500s, Spanish and English Christians killed each other. In the 1800s, French and British Christians
killed each other. In the 1900s,
American and German Christians killed each other. It goes on and on and never ends--just like
it was among the sun cults which murdered and hated each other for
centuries.
The US Civil War
One
of the greatest of Christian tragedies is the American Civil War where over
600,000 young Christian men (and some Christian women) slaughtered each other
on the battlefields. There never was a
good reason for this slaughter--other than stupid Christians allowed themselves
to be manipulated by evil, behind the scenes, Amalekite bankers.
Now,
a strange paradox arises which makes no sense whatsoever in the context of the
Christian religion.
As
briefly pointed out in previous comments herein, the South was generally led by
very Christian men who were honorable and deeply religious--Jefferson Davis,
Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and so forth.
Just as is true today, the South was the “Bible Belt” and the world’s
center of Christianity (true, there were Christians in the North, but not like
the South).
Also,
as cited earlier, the North was led by a band of scaly-wags, occultists and
evil men. If there was an exception to
this charge, it would surely apply to General George McClellan who Lincoln
fired for not aggressively attacking the South.
McClellan was a man of honor and integrity and perhaps hoped for a
political solution which could be had without the need for brothers to kill
brothers.
Mrs
Abe Lincoln was a Spiritualist and the supposedly non-religious Abe
participated in her occultic contacts with the demon world (to include putting
a “hex” on the Southern army, as noted earlier).
General
U. S. Grant was a drunkard (and may have also tried to put a hex on the
Southern Army, as some now claim) and any number of other leading Unionists
were atheists, agnostics, whore-mongers, rapists and derelicts of the worse
kind (excepting McClellan, as noted above).
Lee
and his generals were constantly praying themselves and advocating and
encouraging prayer and Christian worship among their officers and men. There
seems to be no like outpouring of the Christian religion at all in the Union
forces.
Moreover,
anyone trying to condemn the South for slavery should take a few minutes and
read about slavery in the Scriptures (and then check upon Northern morals from
the Word).
The Christian Side Lost
Despite
the sincerity and devotion of numbers of honest, Christian men of some
integrity in the South, the Confederacy lost the war and was virtually
destroyed in those days. They were
punished incredibly so. With their
devotion to Christianity (as opposed to the North), the question must be
asked--why? In the American Civil War,
the more Christian side and people lost.
The less Christian side won.
Incidentally,
many people support the North’s war against the South on the premise that it
was over the just mentioned slavery and the end of slavery. Actually, nothing could be further from the
truth. The Civil War was about states
rights under the 10th amendment to the Constitution, as discussed in a previous
chapter. The subject of states rights
covered a multitude of issues which included slavery, taxation, etc.
The
Northern states and the Radical Republicans wanted to do then what the
Democrats have particularly wanted to do since FDR. The cry has always been one between those who
wanted a limited, central, federal government (with the states having power
over all issues not outlined in the Constitution), as opposed to those who
wanted an all powerful government in Washington calling all of the shots.
Correctly,
this is the issue in the abortion question and Roe versus Wade. Abortion is clearly a topic for the states
(states rights) and not for the federal government under the Constitution. However, the Supreme Court, as has been its
practice now for years, abolished the states’ rights of deciding yes or no on
abortion. The court said that the
federal government has a right to dictate this issue to the entire nation.
Christian Hate, Torture and
Cruelty
Beyond
the obvious qualities of Christian hypocrisy (as discussed in the previous
comments), the tragedy about the vast majority of Christian humanists, liberals
and collective peoples is that they are in a state of rebellion toward The MOST
HIGH and His Words of righteousness.
The
same thing was true of thousands of Catholic leaders and priests in the days of
the famous (or infamous) Catholic inquisition in which they murdered and
slaughtered millions of people who would dare try to stand up for religious
liberty and conscience.
The
Catholics used to have various kinds of torture instruments and methods of
punishment and pain to be put on the backs of poor people who would dare want
religious freedom (per Ralph Woodrow, in “Babylon Mystery Religion”). Literally, these methods were
incomprehensible to the average, civilized man.
Take
the rack which they used to bind a person in two directions and began to pull
the subject apart in the two different directions. Or take the iron coffin with its many stakes,
knives, needles and prongs to slowly inflict torture on a victim as it was
closed. And of course, one must bring to
remembrance the multiplied thousands that were burned alive at the stake in the
name of religion (per “Foxe’s Book of Martyrs”).
As
these many thousands were being tortured and put to death, Catholic priests
would stand by and cheer the executioners and authorities on in their great
murderous and evil actions against innocent people who only wanted and sought
religious liberty for conscience sake.
In
fact, the Catholic priests and leaders were the chief accusers and witnesses
against the innocent people being slaughtered during the Roman Catholic
Church’s rule of the civilized world, from c313 CE until the Protestant
Reformation of the 16th century.
In
fact, the whole problem facing those people, being slaughtered by the millions,
was over religion and their desire to have religious liberty, in contrast to a
Catholic dictatorship. Effectively, the
involved secular authorities were working for and serving the Catholic
religious authorities in their actions.
In
those days, the Catholic religious people were sincere (sincerely wrong) and
would have argued to no end that their hearts were all in the right place. They really believed in what they were
doing. They took pleasure in it (and
thought that they were serving their “Gawd”).
Yes, they ignorantly thought that their evil and murder was the Gospel
message.
Protestants as Well
While
the torture and murder of innocent people, because of their religious beliefs,
can normally be attached to the Roman Catholic Church, Rome has not had an
exclusive possession of these tactics.
Strangely enough, some of the early Protestant Churches attempted to
follow suit, especially when they tried to establish a church-state
linkage.
The
famous theologian and physician Michael Servetus was one (among many innocent
people) who was murdered by the early Protestants. Servetus’ crime was that he refused to
believe in the Christian trinity.
Consequently, he was arrested, tried and burned at the stake in Geneva,
Switzerland in 1553, per the order of the famous reformer, John Calvin.
While
Catholic authorities have killed and tortured people by the millions over their
history; in fairness, the Protestants have never begun to reach those
proportions. With the arrival of the
17th century and the peace of Westphalia in 1648, most of the civilized Western
world gave up on religious persecutions (at least, for a while).
Salem
There
was a notable exception to this motion of peace in 1692 and in Massachusetts
colony of all places. It seems that a
bunch of emotional and hateful teenage girls in the town of Salem began
accusing their enemies of being witches of sorts. This list of accusers included the daughter
and niece of the local Puritan preacher.
Of
course, none of the local, ignorant Christians would dare speak out against
such supposedly innocent, young girls.
Assuredly, the preacher and religious authorities became the leaders in
the emotional hype to try and execute such people (quite naturally, to include
murdering some people who were their religious enemies).
The
people got all worked up over these ridiculous charges and arrested and tried
the accused persons for Witchcraft or being servants of the Devil.
If
the parties confessed their sins, they were released. If they maintained their integrity and
innocence, they were convicted and hung.
Yes, it was easy for some to say that they were a witch and be freed,
while those who denied the charges were hung as being unrepentant. Some 19 died on the gallows before some
measure of sense and fairness returned to the society.
Pat Robertson on Murder
Television
evangelist Pat Robertson was in the news in August 1999 with some of his
views. Robertson is not only a big voice
in Christianity as a Christian pastor, preacher and leader, but he is big in
the Christian media with his own television network and programming. Plus, he has founded and is current president
of the Christian Coalition, a Christian political movement in American
politics.
“Spotlight”
paper (p. 2) of Aug 23, 1999, quoted Robertson--who has went on record that the
assassination of certain world leaders offers a good solution to the world’s
problems. Specifically, Robertson
focused upon the Arab leader Osama bin Laden, the head of North Korea,
Yugoslavia President Slobodan Milosevic and Iraq’s Saddam Hussein.
The
evil Pat Robertson said that it may sound “Machiavellian or evil to think that
you could send a squad in to take out” such persons, but isn’t it better to do
that than having to spend billions of dollars on wars that harm innocent
people.
US
President George W. Bush manifestly heeded the advice of the Christian leader
Robertson because he quickly put out a CIA murder contract on Saddam
Hussein.
But
apparently, this CIA murder effort did not succeed so Bush Jr decided to
proceed with his war and invasion on Iraq to supposedly get rid of Saddam (as
of early summer of 2003, the born again George still had not succeeded in
killing Saddam and even after spending billions of dollars in his murder
effort--though Saddam was later captured after the US offered a reward of $25
million).
As
“Spotlight” perceptively noted, even the evil Amalekite Adolf Schicklgruber
opposed assassinating enemy leaders.
Incidentally,
Christian leader Pat Robertson may also be in on the horse racing racket. The May 6, 2002, “American Free Press” (p. 2)
had a news report that the “man of God” Robertson was expected to run a race
horse in the 2002 Kentucky Derby. The
so-called “reverend” explained to his contributors that he don’t bet on
horses.
Like
the ”American Free Press” asked--isn’t this like the drug pusher saying that he
don’t inhale or the saloon owner saying that he don’t drink. It is unclear to this writer what happened to
Robertson’s horse. If entered at the
Derby, Pat’s horse did not win.
Iraq and Christian Missionaries
The
Mar 26, 2003, Spokane “Spokesman-Review” (p. A7) had a story from Jordan on
“Evangelical missionaries poised near border of Iraq” which reported on the
plans of two key Christian missionary groups--the Southern Baptist Convention
and “the reverend” Franklin Graham’s Samaritan’s Purse of Boone, NC.
As
the story goes, these two, war hungry, Christian missionary groups were poised
in Jordan, waiting for the US bombs to quit falling on Iraq so that they could
rush into the bombed out nation (where 98% of the people are Moslems) and
provide some humanitarian supplies and then evangelize the terrorized and
bombed out Muslims (at least those that survive the US attacks).
Ken
Isaacs, International Director of the Graham project said that “We do not deny
the name of Christ. We believe in
sharing him in deed and in word.”
The
Southern Baptists have spent money on blankets and baby formulas. Much more will follow, along with a more
overt spiritual emphasis. Mark Kelly, a
spokesman for the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptists, noted
that “Conversation about spiritual things will come about as people ask about
our faith.”
In
one more report, the Apr 2003 “Maoz Israel” newsletter (p. 3) suggested “Let us
pray for a spiritual army of dedicated men and women, full of love for the
Iraqi people, to invade that land with the Gospel.” This group is a Pentecostal-Charismatic type
of Messianic Jews who fully supported the Bush war on Iraq (as is commented upon
elsewhere herein).
The Paradox
But
there is quite a paradox about the evangelizing efforts of these two Christian
groups. Most of the solid Bush support
for the Iraqi war and for the bombing and slaughter of thousands of Iraqis have
come from evangelical Christians. While
Christians often love war, the evangelical Christians have been particularly
noteworthy about supporting this Bush war.
As
discussed elsewhere herein, any number of leading evangelical Christians have
spoken out to condemn and criticize the Islam religion and connect it to the
work of the Devil. Per the story under
discussion, “the reverend” Franklin Graham called Islam “a very evil and wicked
religion.”
“The
reverend” Jerry Vines, former denominational president of the Southern
Baptists, says that Islam’s Allah is not the same deity as the “God” worshipped
by Christians. Vines adds “I will tell
you Allah is not Jehovah, either.
Jehovah’s not going to turn you into a terrorist.”
Both
the Franklin Graham and Southern Baptist groups have close ties to the war
hungry George W. Bush and are perhaps his primary block of political supporters
(much like the Blacks are/were the primary people in support of the diabolical
Slick Clinton). Yet, interestingly, the
born again Bush has come out and called Islam a “religion of peace.”
So
Bush and his primary supporters for war need to get together and decide whether
Islam is good or bad. They logically
can’t have it both ways--in that Islam is a religion of evil/terrorists and
also a religion of peace.
Therefore,
it’s quite a paradox that these Gawd loving Christians, who are such lovers of
war and haters of the Islamic world (and who have been some of the primary
people pushing for the killing of the Iraqis), were poised on the borders of
Iraq, preparing to rush into that war torn and devastated country to try to
convert those innocent people to pagan, sun worship Christianity.
Yes, the Christian Push for War
The
gist of the presentation in the former commentary is that Christian preachers
and leaders are just as depraved, sick, warped and evil as the political
leaders have been who have pushed and prodded the US into wars, conflicts and
intrigues, all on the premise of so-called righteousness and morality.
Of
course, historically, the Roman Catholic popes were the principle people who
dreamed up and schemed wars and murders of people--all done as a part of the
Christian Gospel. Nothing has changed
within Christianity in the last 2,000 years.
It still is a sun worship religion, closely tied to sun worship priests
and politicians (who now serve the ruling Amalekites).
The
NT has a number of comments from YESHUA which show His utter contempt toward politicians,
doctors, lawyers and religious leaders.
His greatest condemnations of all were directed at these evil people
(who are just as depraved and wicked today [or more so] as they were 2,000
years ago).
The Preachers Are the Most Guilty of
All
Otherwise,
the Tanakh has a host of long presentations on wicked preachers (obviously, in
reference to Christian preachers in the context of the various Christian
Israelite nations). Over and over, YHWH
says that He never sent them. Yet, they
have went forth to spew out their brands of evil sun worship.
This
study has discussed a whole array of very serious problems and issues which
have acted to maim, destroy and hurt dumb people for most of the last 2,000
years (in the context of pride, greed, environmental pollution, food, health,
sexual relations, cultural issues and on and on).
It
has to be significant that all of this sun worship evil in the culture and
civilization in the modern House of Yisrael nations has always been acceptable
and even respected and admired by the collective Christian society. The Christian preachers, above all other
persons, have had a moral duty to teach the Torah and instruct the people under
their care about the evils of the present culture.
But
the preachers have not said a word about true righteousness (in the generic
sense). They have sat back for 2,000
years and allowed the greatest of evils to become entrenched in the Christian
West. They have done little or nothing
of benefit for their people. Assuredly,
YHWH holds the preachers accountable for the evil which they have taught and
imposed on the people.
This
writer has wanted, searched for and tried to have available clean food and
water (in difference to the poisoned and nutritionally inferior products now
available in the contemporary sun worship society). We all have a need to walk the extra mile and
try our level best to avoid defiling the temples of our bodies (so that The
RUACH HA KODESH might one day dwell in them).
But
the whole culture is against letting people have clean and nutritionally
beneficial food for human consumption.
Of course, the food issue is just one among thousands, as outlined in
this production. Others (like tyrannical
and oppressive governments) are just as profound and pressing in
importance. As discussed earlier, the
preachers have sat back and allowed this tragedy to happen.
They
have not stood in the gap to preach and teach against the evils of this present
sun worship system. Absolutely, YHWH
will hold them accountable and punish them the most of all. As quoted earlier, Dr Stan Monteith said--the
man who does not oppose evil becomes an accomplice in it. Is it not manifest that Christian preachers
and leaders are accomplices in the evil in the land?
11th Hour Remnant Messenger
On
Nov 13, 1999, the previously quoted R. Vincent Bertollini, of the 11th Hour Remnant
Messenger in Sandpoint, Idaho, wrote a very revealing, open letter of six pages
to Christian pastors, teachers and ministers at large (as published in issue
#12, 1999, of “Calling Our Nation” magazine).
This
letter really indicted the Christian leadership for its gross failures and
apathy. Without attempting to cover his
many excellent points, a few remarks will be extracted to demonstrate that
indeed Christianity has failed the people.
Bertollini
wrote: “Our Government, by illegal and
unconstitutional military action, has murdered tens of thousands of innocent
men, women and children in Iraq, Somalia, the Sudan, Haiti, Panama, Granada
(sic), Bosnia and Yugoslavian Kosovo.
Where is the outcry for those atrocities? None exists.
Shame on you!
“Our
President is a traitor, murderer, adulterer and a liar of the vilest sort and
there is no outcry from the Church.
Shame on you!
“We
have watched you stand silent while our Tyrannical Government murdered men,
women and children at Waco. Our demonic
possessed Attorney General stated recently that she would do the same thing
again! Shame on you!
“We
have watched you stand silent when our Tyrannical Government minions murdered
the wife and child of Randy Weaver at Ruby Ridge. Shame on you!
“We
have watched you stand silent as nearly two million fetuses are aborted each
year because of promiscuity. Shame on
you!
“We
have watched you stand silent as in-your-face-homosexuality permeates our
society; our universities, our streets, your churches and the media. Shame on you!
“There
is more violence and sex and in the movies as never before in the history of
the United States. Pornography is
rampant everywhere in this country and permeates the Internet. Why is there no outcry from the Church? Shame on you!
“We
have watched you embrace integration, multi-culturalism and diversity. Most of you encourage and even perform mixed
race marriage ceremonies. You will
answer for this most outrageous violation against God’s desire and commandment
to separate when you stand before Him on That Day! (Like kind after like kind). You are contributing to the destruction of
the Adamic White Aryan Israelite peoples of this planet. Shame on you!
“We
have watched you stand silent as you accept strangers in our midst who bring
their paganistic religions into our race and culture; Buddhism, Islam,
Zoreastrianism, Taoism, Confucianism, Catholicism, New Age and many others. False Gods and Idolatry are an abomination to
God the Father and He always punishes His people for allowing it and practicing
it. God will judge you as
self-proclaimed shepherds of your flocks.
Shame on you!
“You
stand silently by as the greatest nation that has ever existed on planet earth,
founded as a Christian nation with Christians principles, allowed atheist
Madeline O’Hara and a small minority of followers petition the Supreme Court of
this land to take prayer from the schoolroom and public forum. Shame on you!
“Now,
the strangers that live in our land and our second generation now in the public
schools who have no knowledge of the God of the universe hold all Christian
principles in disdain. You wring your
hands and wonder from your pulpits what went wrong and silently pray for Father
God to handle it!”
“The Herald of Truth”
The
Seventh Day Church of God of Caldwell, Idaho publishes a small bi-monthly
religious magazine called “The Herald of Truth.” Like other Christian publications, this one
is so shallow, false and lacking that it makes me want to think of it as “The
Herald of No Truth” because that really is about what it is all about.
In
any case, the January 2002 issue (p. 2-4) had an editorial which focused upon
so-called drifters drifting “from God.”
The points were made that a drifter is a person who moves aimlessly from
one place to another, and that the “church must begin to realize that there is
no place in God’s Kingdom for one to drift along with the world and it’s
ways.”
Thus,
the argument was advanced that one cannot drift his way into “the Kingdom of
God.” Next, the editorial focused upon
three things that characterize the drifter.
First, the drifter “finds it hard to do battle so he begins to give in
on little things.” Next, the drifter
“thinks he is alright with God and in good standing even though he my (sic) be
deceiving himself.”
There
wasn’t anything significant one way or the other on these several
comments. But the one remark which
really stands out is the third and last thing about a drifter.
The
editorial said: “Third, a drifter is
able to miss church services and not feel any thing is wrong. People give all kinds of reasons why they can
miss church and remain loyal to God, but the bottom line is they have become
lean in their souls and no longer have a burden for the lost as they did when
they first yielded their lives to the Lord.”
Going
on, the editor noted that the Sep 11, 2001, terrorist attack was a warning call
“to the church” to remind her that drifting is an unstable position to be
in.
The
point of mentioning this editorial is that of the profound sins in America and
in the American Christian Church, it is indeed a paradox that this Christian
leader has to focus on almost nothing except the usual and typical Christian
whining about “the Lord,” missing “church” services, and the need to have a
burden “for the lost.”
Actually,
this editorial is not unique or different from the bulk of what the leaders of
almost any of the 32,000 Christian denominations would write. Their whole lives and beings are devoted to
the need to get the Christian suckers (the dumb sheep, as they are either
called or thought of) to come to the pagan worship services; and of course, to
fork over some money (though the money appeal was not cited in the
editorial).
And
those few remarks sum up the feelings and attitude of most Christian Church
leaders. Surely, there must have been a
thousand things which could have been cited and which were far more important
and profound than whether the gullible Christian suckers come to weekly church
services or not.
One of My Idols
This
writer used to have a deep fascination and indeed, even an idolatrous
obsession, over working on my personal genealogy. It was stupid and sin, but i was hooked on
it. One of my great-great grandfathers
lived near Lenoir, North Carolina in the late 1840s and early 1850s. As his family were virtually all Baptists, he
had his membership at one of the local Baptist Churches (the Lower Creek
Baptist Church).
One
day in the 1970s, the old church minutes came to my attention and the decision
was made by me to read and abstract a few of the references in those minutes,
as applying to my family. It was very
interesting to find several remarks about my grandfather.
But
all of them were focused in one and seemingly in only one direction in regards
to him. It seems that he occasionally
(or frequently) missed sun worship church services. Whenever a member failed to show up for
Sunday worship, the church leadership would note the absence and failure in the
church minutes.
With
a couple of consecutive misses, the response was to send a church delegation to
the missing member and find out why he was not in church. It seems that one of these delegations
visited my grandfather on more than occasion.
Apparently, he always had some excuse to pacify them and keep them from
kicking him out of the church because of his poor attendance record.
And
that tragically is the essence of Christianity.
Almost the entire Christian focus is to get the suckers to come to the
sun worship services where they can fork over some money and be told what they
supposedly need to know in order to live this life in an acceptable Christian
fashion. For sure, these services rarely
cover anything in the way of truth or what is needed. Oh, what a waste!
Chapter
543--The Christian Dilemma III
Former President Slick Clinton,
Revisited
In
terms of the presentation in the former chapters on the Christian dilemma,
there are still some more interesting observations about Christians, the
Christian Church and Christian leaders which need some further highlighting at
this point in time.
Tragically,
in the last 2,000 years, Christians have slaughtered and killed more people,
including other Christians, than any other force in world history, as discussed
in the previous chapters. But even these
Christian murdering campaigns must be put into the right perspective.
Perhaps
Christian Bill Clinton best illustrates this whole discussion. The former Christian president of the
Christian United States, Slick Clinton, proved to be one of the most war
mongering and hateful Christian leaders in world history--certainly since the
times of the madman Nero and more so than even the wicked Christians, Franklin
Roosevelt and Adolf Schicklgruber.
To
demonstrate the best view of Slick, it would be well to quote longtime Bill
Clinton friend Ralph Forbes. He said
that Clinton had been plotting and planning WWIII ever since 1998. This reality with Slick Clinton reminds one
of Psalms 55:21 where an evil party spoke words that were smoother than butter
(slick), but war was in his heart. This
text sure sounds like Clinton (as well as George W. Bush).
Both
Slick and Hillary have wanted to emulate Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt’s years
in the White House. As noted elsewhere
herein, FDR began plotting war almost from the very beginning when he entered
the White House. For sure, WWII made FDR
famous.
So
Slick wanted to gain fame and recognition with a WWIII which he tried to
commence in the Balkans and in the Middle East with his constant military
attacks and aggressions against innocent people who largely lacked the military
means to defend themselves against the so-called super power, the United
States.
FDR
served over twelve years. With
Roosevelt, America had a president for life who was in no mood to give up the
presidency--even after winning four elections.
Clinton
is in the same ballpark and is making plans right now to regain power (so he
can commence WWIII--if it does not start with George W. Bush). While the Constitution now limits Clinton to
two elected terms, there is the possibility of a new Constitution, as previously
described herein (or following the election of Hillary Clinton as president or
vice-president).
And Bush As Well
While
the evils of the diabolical and depraved Clinton exceed almost anything any one
could ever imagine and perceive for any other US leader, one must not ignore
that other leaders, like George W. Bush, could and would also be incredibly
evil and depraved--perhaps not as much as Bill “Slick” Clinton, but still quite
significantly.
As
pointed out in the Prologue of this study, the Bush clan members are not
exactly “saints,” to use a popular Christian expression. Yes, the Bush people are manifestly quite
evil and diabolical; though admittedly, the Bush family members are probably in
the minor leagues in comparison with Slick Clinton, who is a master of
evil.
Anyway,
George W. Bush has decided that he too can get in on the act of trying to
emulate Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his success at propelling the US into
war. Like Bill Clinton was constantly
going around the world to create wars of all sorts, George Junior has proven
that he too can travel the world in searching out means and opportunities to
pursue war.
Of
course, the so-called terrorist attacks of 9-11-2001 have given GWB a perfect
excuse to launch wars of liberation upon various nations. Thus, Bush rushed into Afghanistan and Iraq
and bombed huge numbers of innocent women and children into oblivion.
As
noted elsewhere herein, the bombing and murder of huge populations of innocent
women and children in Afghanistan and Iraq have pleased the Bushes, the
Rockefellers, the Standard Oil elements, Halliburton business interests, the
Amalekite Jews, and the Amalekite plutocrats on Wall Street. These wars have and will put a lot of profits
and money into the pockets of these various entities.
Moreover,
these wars allow young George to prove that he too is a leader of the same
caliber as Slick Clinton and the diabolical Franklin Roosevelt. Hence, there seems to be all kinds of
supposedly good reasons for George W. Bush to proceed with his wars of
destruction, murder and evil.
Some Reality
However,
there are some more interesting issues in the discussion on the Bush war on
Iraq. Bush has advertised himself
extensively as a “born again” Christian (whatever that means). He declared long ago that his favorite person
was “Jesus Christ.” Repeatedly, George
comes out and makes a proclamation about his evangelical Christian faith.
On
March 6, 2003, George Junior had a press conference and some 22-23 times he
declared how evil Saddam Hussein was and what a threat that Saddam Hussein was
to peace. Almost as many times, George
went on to affirm that he would very soon give an attack order to bomb Saddam
and his Iraqi people into oblivion.
In
his press conference, George tried to convey the image that he daily gets down
on his knees and prays to the sun god for guidance and direction. He even tried to say that he prays or will
pray for the American soldiers and the people of Iraq who would be murdered and
slaughtered by the thousands of incoming US bombs, missiles and shells.
Now,
is there anything wrong in these contrary positions offered by George at his
press conference? Is it possible that he
is preparing to order the bombing of the people of Iraq all the time that he is
on his knees praying for his murdering soldiers and the murdered Iraqi
people?
Who Gets Hurt
As
is always true, the fat cats who cause wars will never be hurt from the
incoming bombs. When China, Russia and
the Third World move against the US, the Rockefellers, the Rothschild agents
and other plutocrats will all get in their private jets or on their private
yachts and motor away from the US before death and destruction fill the
skies.
Of
course, it goes without saying that the rulers in almost all states have built
themselves underground bunkers and places of safety so that when the bombs fall
they will be protected. The US has been
doing this for decades now in the mountains of Western Virginia and Western
Maryland.
So,
when the bombs start falling, the only people who will be bombed into oblivion
will be the poor, to include multitudes of innocent women and children.
People
like the Rockefellers, the Bushes, the Rothschilds, the Cecils, the DuPonts,
the Harrimans, the Bronfmans, the Roosevelts, etc will never face the incoming
bombs (although these workers of evil are the most deserving of punishment of
all, instead of a bunch of innocent women and children who have no money or
means to escape the incoming bombs and terror).
More History
During
WWII, the German fat cats (and particularly Jews like the Warburgs and
Rothschilds) all fled before the US and British bombing runs began obliterating
German cities. Too, Adolf Schicklgruber
took refuge in his underground bunker while multitudes of innocent German women
and children were being killed by allied bombs.
The
Mar 14, 2003, “The Week” (p. 15) told what happened to Germany while Adolf was
in his bunker and the Christian US and British bombers were bombing Christian
Germany into a pile of heap. Firestorms
covered whole neighborhoods (while the maniac Adolf was drinking champagne and
copulating with the lovely Eva Braun in the security of his bunker).
From
1943 to 1945, some 160 German cities were bombed--killing 600,000 mostly Christian
people, including 80,000 children.
Hamburg saw the death of 40,000 civilians killed from one fire bombing
attack. Pforzheim saw the death of one
in every three persons (even Nagasaki only had the death of one in eight
persons after the US dropped the A bomb on that city).
The
infamous US-British firebombing of Dresden, Germany (cited elsewhere herein)
produced at least 35,000 deaths and perhaps as many as 160,000 deaths (Mar 24,
2003, “American Free Press,” p. 11).
One
allied bomber, British bomber pilot Richard Mayce, looked back on his firebombs
falling on Germany and said that “Even the water was on fire. Hell must look like that.” At that moment, Mayce became a pacifist (Mar
14, 2003, “The Week” (p. 15).
Quite
naturally, the same analogy applies to the Bush enemies in the Middle
East. Bush and his thousands of high
performance aircraft, armed with numbers of uranium enriched bombs, will bomb,
murder and destroy tens of thousands of innocent women and children. If there were any fat cats in Iraq or
wherever, they would escape (because of their money).
Moreover,
leaders, like Saddam Hussein, would hide out in underground bunkers and never
personally face the incoming bombs like innocent, unprotected civilians.
The Liars
Of
course, the first basic problem with Bush and indeed with all of so-called
humanity is that all men tell lies. Yes,
Franklin Delano Roosevelt regularly and often lied to the American people and
to the world. The same was true with his
presidential predecessors and successors.
They all have told lies whenever the occasion warranted it in their
view.
There
is no arguing that Bill “Slick” Clinton was the master liar of all. But this reality from history does not alter
the fact that George H. W. Bush and his George Junior son have also been
extraordinarily big liars.
While
George Senior made his mark in lying when he said to read his lips on no new
taxes (and then he went on to support more taxes), George Senior also told
enormous lies in order to get the United States involved in all kinds of
intrigue and skullduggery in the Middle East--which eventually culminated with
the George H. W. Bush war on Iraq.
Perhaps
George Senior’s primary use of lies against Saddam was the constant atrocity
stories. Americans can easily be whipped
into a state of hate and war when their leader constantly lies to them and
tells them atrocity stories--over and over.
Whether the stories have some elements of truth or are totally made up
and false matters not at all. They can
be used very successfully to cause a war!
Poor
Saddam was propelled into the spotlight once he invaded the US ally Kuwait
(which just happened to be heavily in debt to the international bankers in
London--with the Iraqi invasion, the bankers’ loans were in peril and might not
be repaid--thus, necessitating a US war against Iraq and a rescue of the
Kuwaitis).
This
whole thing gave GHWB a fantastic opportunity to go in and bomb Iraq to
oblivion in order to save the bankers and simultaneously allow the Bush and
Rockefeller families and certain huge multi-national corporations to make much,
much money on the side.
The
various lies, the atrocity stories and the money and plunder that the Bush
family stole from the 1991 Gulf War have all been described and commented upon
earlier herein and need no particular explanation now. Suffice to say, these things happened.
Chapter
544--The Christian Dilemma IV
And Now, the Liar GWB
Quite
naturally, George W. Bush learned from his dad and the master liar Bill Clinton
(as described in the former chapters).
While George Junior talks constantly about “Jesus Christ,” his Christian
religion and being born again, these words have not held GWB back from telling
lies. Like other men, George the second
has lied and does tell lies about a number of things.
In
some of the commentary from Stan Johnson of the Prophecy Club, Johnson
addressed the 9-11 terrorist attacks and said that he didn’t know what happened
to cause the attacks, but he did know that the Bush administration did not tell
the American people the truth about them.
Thus, Bush and his people lied to the American people about these
attacks--as well as numerous other things.
But
perhaps George W. Bush hit his stride in talking about Iraq and Saddam
Hussein. That Saddam is evil, there is
no denying (the same indictment is true about GHWB, BC and GWB as they all are
lairs as well). However, George W. Bush
made it his purpose in life to constantly bombard the public with lies about
Saddam being the Hitler of the week (after tiring of focusing upon Osama bin
Laden).
Obviously,
if Saddam was the Hitler of the week (as George consistently berated him), then
it stood to reason that he must be destroyed.
And George Junior made that his goal at some point in time--perhaps in
2002 (because of the US Jewish influence and because the Bushes, Rockefellers
and other ruling American plutocrats saw a golden opportunity to make gobs and
gobs of money from the Iraqi oilfields).
In
order to put the idea over on how bad Saddam was, George Junior resurrected the
old GHWB atrocity stories which could be charged to Saddam. Constantly, we were told that Saddam gassed
the Kurds (with the gas which the US furnished Iraq to use against the
Iranians) and murdered babies (with false stories from the daughter of the
Kuwaiti ambassador to the US).
Never
mind that these atrocity charges were totally and completely false (as proven
in former commentary herein); young George proceeded to repeat them over and
over again (after all, GWB has brains enough to understand the lesson taught by
Adolf Schicklgruber that a lie told, over and over, will soon be believed by
the gullible public).
Like
the Mar 21, 2003, “The Week” (p. 2) noted in a quote from writer David Corn in
“The Nation,” Bush made up his mind for war against Iraq long ago. To justify his plans to oust Saddam, Bush
repeatedly “hyped” the case against Iraq with “half-truths and lies,” such as
the nonexistent link between Iraq and al Qaeda.
Bush never offered an alternative to war because he did not believe or
allow that one existed.
The UN Charter
In
order to support his desire for war against Saddam and Iraq, George W. Bush
consistently argued that he had authority for an invasion against Iraq based
simply upon the existing UN resolutions.
The
fact that UN resolutions say that Iraq must disarm its so-called weapons of
mass destruction (as largely furnished by the United States back in the 1980s)
and allow UN weapons inspectors in to verify the disarmaments (although Iraq
maintained that she had no weapons of mass destruction) came to mean that Bush
and the US had UN authority to launch a war and invasion of Iraq.
Even
UN Secretary General Kofi Annan was prompted to go on record and warn Bush that
the United States would be violating the UN charter if Iraq was invaded.
Annan
said “If the United States and others would go outside the council (the UN
Security Council) and take military action, it will not be in conformity with
the (UN) charter. The legitimacy and
support of any such action will be seriously impaired” (Mar 11, 2003, Spokane
“Spokesman-Review,” p. A4).
George
W. Bush countered that the US would be within her rights to attack Iraq without
UN support because Saddam represented a direct threat to America (ibid, p.
A4). Continuously, Bush maintained that
the US had authority to launch a war and invasion against Iraq based upon
present UN resolutions--though no one else believed this nonsense.
In
other words, Bush was following one of the favorite tactics of the modern liberals
(after all, Bush is a part of this same Greek sun worship and Sabbatian
philosophical confluence, as described in previous chapters on Christian Church
history).
This
philosophy says to say something totally contrary to truth and claim that it is
truth. This procedure is how people get
around the US Constitution and the Scriptures--they read interpretations into
them which are simply not present.
Modern Christianity (with its philosophical basis in Greek sun worship
and Amalekite Sabbatianism) can say black is white and evil is good.
Confused or a Liar?
There
once was a day in America when a man’s word was his bond. But all of this has changed because men today
say things which are not true and/or will never be true. All of us (and this writer must confess this
sin historically as well) say things that we really don’t mean. We make promises and simply don’t deliver on
the promises. In other words, our words
mean nothing.
It’s
too bad for America and the evil people here, but George W. Bush has also
fallen into the same trap. Literally,
his word is not worth anything. He says
things and then completely ignores or contradicts his own words (is this
telling a lie or what is it?).
In
George Junior’s case, this problem of saying things and making promises and
then not delivering started with his dad (as noted in the previous chapter,
GHWB made promises on taxation and then reneged, thinking that the voters would
forget the promises--politicians do this regularly because they well understand
that the mental recall ability of voters is about three months).
In
early March 2003, George W. Bush and his British colleague in deception, Tony
Blair, said that they would introduce a new UN resolution to be voted upon just
after the March 7, 2003, report by the UN weapons inspectors. Bush set the date for this vote on March 11,
2003. This was an effective declaration
of war and nothing more.
Repeatedly,
in speeches to Americans, George said that there would be no slippage on this
date and that he insisted (actually demanded) that the UN Security Council vote
upon his resolution--yes or no or up or down as he put it. Bush added that “no matter what the whip
count is. It’s time for people to show
their cards” (Mar 14, 2003, Spokane “Spokesman-Review,” p. A4).
But
the Bush and Blair team could not get the votes that they wanted for
passage. So they changed the resolution
to give Saddam until March 17, 2003, to prove that he had disarmed his weapons
of mass destruction (except Saddam said that he had nothing to disarm and the
UN weapons inspectors had found nothing in the way of weapons of mass
destruction. However, Iraq did destroy
some missiles which allegedly exceeded the maximum range allowable under a
previous UN declaration).
Slipping the Dates
However,
once more, Bush and Blair could not get the votes to support the war plan. So the leader of the pair, George W. Bush,
said that the UN voting date would slip to March 13, 2003.
Since
Blair is a lap dog for Bush, Blair received authority to amend the resolution
to set some so-called bench marks to prove that Saddam had disarmed (one bench
mark set by Blair required Saddam to confess that he had weapons of mass
destruction and would now destroy them--obviously, this was an impossible
demand because Saddam had consistently said that he had no such weapons. As noted elsewhere herein, tyrants, like Bush
and Blair, like to impose impossible demands on others, fully realizing that
the impossible demands cannot be met).
As
the week of March 9, 2003, progressed, and as it became obvious that Bush and
Blair did not have the votes in the UN, George W. Bush slipped the UN vote date
to the end of the week (or March 14, 2003).
And
once more, the votes for passage were simply not out there. So Bush said that he was willing to wait a
few more days. The UN voting date was
slipped to March 17, 2003, which was the cut off date. Both Bush and Blair offered to further amend
the cut off date from March 17th to something still later if that idea would be
acceptable by members of the security council.
The Bush Problem
Ultimately,
the UN would not cave in to the Bush demands.
So new strategy was called for to deal with the UN problem. Accordingly, on Mar 16, 2003, Bush, Blair and
the Bush Spanish lackey (the Prime Minister of Spain) met in the Azores to map
out further strategy. Apparently, at
this secret meeting, the Bush team simply gave up on any hope of having the UN
vote positively for the proposal for war.
All
along, any of the permanent members of the security council could call for a
vote. And in the Bush words to the
American people, Bush said that he would demand a vote of yes or no from each
security council member who would have to “show his cards.” Yet, Bush never called for this up or down
vote. He reneged on his own word (just
like his dad did years ago on taxation).
The
only reason that Bush never called for the vote was because the US didn’t have
enough votes to win in the show down.
Rather than make his word good (in demanding the up or down; yes or no
vote), Bush and his colleagues gave up at the Azores meeting and decided to go
to war without UN support.
The Liar
Instead
of merely proceeding to demand the vote and keep his pledged word to the
American people, Bush did some backtracking by simply ignoring his own
words. Thus, the born again Christian
leader became a liar to his own people, as well as to the world.
The
way the lying Bush people handled this dilemma was that he and his team started
a spin that they had eight votes on the security council and that they only
needed one more (to make the necessary nine).
Per
this spin, they hoped to get either Mexico or Chile (however, this allegation
of eight votes had to be lies since six nations had already publicly
disapproved of the Bush calls for war--so six plus eight plus Mexico and Chile
equaled sixteen nations which simply would not stack up to the reality that the
council only had fifteen members--obviously, the Bush people were lying).
Anyway,
faced with an embarrassing defeat in the security council, the born again
Christian Bush simply abandoned his word and proceeded to say that the needed
votes could not be obtained because of the threatened veto of France.
In
other words, the Bush people blamed France because France indicated that she
would veto any resolution supporting war.
Thus, the Bush position was that France had thwarted the will of the UN
and now Bush had to step forward and impose the UN will in a war against
Iraq.
The UN Vetoes
Almost
from the beginning of the latest flaps at the UN, on the efforts of Bush and
Blair to get a new UN resolution allowing war, President Jacques Chirac
consistently said that France would not allow such a resolution to pass. On many occasions, Chirac stated that France
would veto any such resolution if necessary to insure that the resolution did
not pass.
As
just cited above, the UN Security Council has fifteen members. Five are permanent and the other ten rotate
among the various nations. The US,
Britain, Russia (the old USSR), France and China are the five permanent
members.
The
five permanent members have exclusive veto rights which completely override all
other factors before the UN Security Council.
Since the US, under Franklin Roosevelt, created the UN (to bring in
world government), the Security Council and the veto privilege, the truth is
that this whole system is a US invention.
The
Mar 11, 2003, Spokane “Spokesman-Review” (p. A4) had a recap outline on the use
of vetoes by the five permanent members of the UN historically. The old USSR and her Russian successor have
used the veto 120 times. The US is next
with 76 vetoes. The United Kingdom is
third with 32 vetoes; France is fourth with 18; and China is last with five.
In
addition, the US has, on 25 other occasions, killed draft resolutions which
would condemn Israel. And in fact, the
last veto rendered came from the US in December 2002 when the UN Security
Council tried to criticize Israel.
Apparently, many or most of the 76 US vetoes involved Israel in some
way.
While
the old USSR freely used the veto at the UN, the same charge can be laid to the
US with her bully of the block attitude of trying to force the UN to do as the
US plutocrats demand.
More on France
But
interestingly, one of the most important states to rarely use the veto has been
France. Manifestly, no one can criticize
the French over using their veto prerogatives at the UN.
So
Jacques Chirac and France took a stand in February 2003 that France would use
her veto powers if necessary to prevent a UN sanctioned war against Iraq. Of course, this position upset the war
mongering Bush and his lying helpers (like Powell, Rice, Rumsfeld, etc).
Bush
regularly spoke against France and tried to ridicule France for daring to say
that she would use her veto. Secretary
of Defense Donald Rumsfeld even made a fool out of himself by trying to define
both France and Germany as being “Old Europe.”
This stupidity did not set well with the French.
Many
Americans then said that they would quit buying French wine (since the US pays
for the wine with fiat money/IOUs, this move would not hurt the French--thus,
at some point in time, thinking Frenchmen logically should stop selling their
wine to the US in exchange for fiat money).
The
point of this is that we have the veto welding US (who has been the bully of
the block for years at the UN and elsewhere as a matter of fact) trying to make
fun of and criticize the French for daring to talk about using their veto
powers. Is this being hypocritical or
what?
And More
Too,
George W. Bush regularly charged that Saddam and Iraq had not obeyed some of
the UN resolutions passed to contain the Iraqi people. The interesting thing is that far more UN
resolutions have been passed against the state of Israel (that is those that
the US has allowed to pass--usually, the US will not allow any resolution
condemning the Israelis). And Israel,
almost without exception, simply ignores the UN resolutions.
Frankly,
this writer is not siding against Israel for ignoring UN resolutions. She should.
And indeed, other nations also should have a right to ignore the UN (to
include Iraq). But the point of it is
that George W. Bush is a total hypocrite on this question. He simply is not a man of any honor or
integrity.
The
hypocrite Bush has whined and complained about the various Hitlers of the week
since he took office in January 2001 (Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein). Virtually everything that Bush has charged to
his enemies (who will not immediately cave in and obey America’s ruling
plutocrats) can be laid to the US or her allies (like Israel, Britain,
etc).
The
essence of these remarks is that Bush and his whole team are hypocrites. The very things that this group of evil and
lying people charge Iraq with can be laid against themselves.
Authority?
The
last Bush spin happened when the US President said that the US already had
authority under existing UN resolutions to go to war and invade Iraq. While it is true that the UN did have a
resolution on the table specifying that Iraq disarm, nothing in that resolution
set a date, defined what disarmament meant (beyond the work of the inspectors
to verify the fact) or stipulated what action would be taken.
As
a minimum, the US clearly had absolutely no authority to arbitrarily step up
and be the bully of the block by stating that she would “enforce” a UN
resolution which was before the UN Security Council. So, what right did Bush have to decide that
he would enforce a UN resolution without authority from the UN? For certain, he had no such right.
Of
course, the answer to that question was really simple enough. As outlined in former chapters herein, there
is the issue of security for the state of Israel (thus, prompting many American
Jews and Amalekite plutocrats to demand a war against Iraq); and of course, the
opportunities for Exxon, Halliburton, the big banks, the Rockefellers, the
Rothschilds, the Bushes, and so forth to make a lot of money.
Changy-Changy
The
point here is that the Christian Bush (and Blair too--but since Blair is only a
lap dog for George, the blame must be placed effectively upon Bush and not upon
Blair) changed his position almost daily from March 1 and on forward.
The
lying Bush would come out in public and take a firm stand and set dates on one
day. Then, the next day, he would change
his position. He was constantly running
around in a state of confusion.
Obviously, all along, Bush and his lap dog Blair would not let a vote
take place at the UN if they would lose the vote (despite the fact that Bush
had earlier demanded a vote and regardless of the outcome).
Anyway,
by March 17, 2003, the Bush team had decided to proceed with a war against
Iraq--right or wrong.
Dave Barley
In
the Mar-Apr 2003 “America’s Promise” newsletter (p. 3-4), editor Dave Barley
offered his assessment of the Bush war against Iraq in an article entitled
“All’s Not Fair in Love & War.”
Barley
asked-- “What if the President of the United States and the federal government
were subject to the same rules and UN policies that Saddam Hussein and his
government is being subjected? I’m just
curious, I really wonder how they would react, if the proverbial ‘shoe’ was on
the other foot.
“What
if the nations of the world joined together in a United Nations effort making
the same demands against the United States of America, demanding that we disarm
all of our nuclear missiles and provide full disclosure of their whereabouts? You might say, ‘Well that’s ridiculous, and
that would never happen.’ Well, humor
me, please. I really do not think it is
a ridiculous question at all!
“Justice
should not be supposition or conjecture.
President Bush often uses the word ‘fairness,’ implying that he and the
federal government are truly seeking to be fair. Great, then let’s be fair and equally apply
fairness to all nations. Treat all
nations with the same scrutiny and suspicion that we are presently treating
Iraq with, and then we will really see some political fireworks.
“But
someone will argue, ‘Well, Saddam Hussein deserves this. He invaded Kuwait. He has behaved aggressively towards
neighboring countries. He is a dictator
and has murdered people.’ Well, so has
Cuba’s dictator Castro, China’s dictator Jiang Zemin, and Korea’s dictator,
Pyongyang. In fact, Pyongyang recently
warned the United States that ‘any attack on its restarted nuclear reactor
would result in full-scale nuclear war.’
“So
where’s the ‘fairness’ in Bush singling out Iraq as the main ‘axis of
evil’? Saddam Hussein hasn’t made as
near as threatening remark or demand against the United States of America as
the ones Pyongyang has made.”
In
the view of the writer of this study, Bush is, of course, no more fair than any
of the other dictators and government leaders mentioned by Barley. Manifestly, it’s a classic case of the pot
calling the kettle black. And in the
case of Bush, there is much hypocrisy involved with his constant cries about
prayers and being a born again Christian.
Bush in Florida
Bush
launched his war against Iraq on March 20, 2003. On March 26, 2003, he spoke to the military
people and their descendants at the US CINCOM headquarters at McDill Air Force
Base in Florida. Just the night before,
US bombs had attacked and killed some thirty Iraqi civilians and wounded many
more in a residential area in Baghdad.
In
Florida, Bush said nothing about the US attack on women and children in Iraq,
but he was quick to point out that we (meaning him and presumably other
Americans) were praying for the US military and we (again meaning him and
perhaps others) were “thanking God” for defending the Americans in their war
against Iraq. So here we have the born
again Bush talking about prayer and morality.
In
this speech to the US military, Bush ended his comments with his familiar
close-- “May God bless America!”
Actually, Bush is not the lone ranger on this remark as it is also very
popular with American hypocrites and frauds of all types.
Incidentally,
though ignored by the born again Christian Bush, there was an interesting fall
out in some comments from senior US officials on Mar 27, 2003, regarding this
attack on innocent civilians. US
reporters (like NPR) went to the scene and said it had to be a huge US
missile/bomb since the area destroyed covered almost two city blocks (yes, it
was a US weapon of mass destruction--which are never condemned).
Rather
than admit the attack on the civilians, US officials claimed that the Iraqis
bombed their own people and were trying to blame the attack on the American
forces. The thought this writer had on
these US allegations was that any person believing such nonsense is still at
the idiot level and surely still believes in the tooth fairy. Of course, the Bush people believe that the
typical American is just that stupid.
Tragically,
two days later (on March 28, 2003), another apparent US missile fell on a
market area in Baghdad (killing 68 mostly women and children and wounding many
more), and on Apr 1, 2002, US forces machine gunned a car containing Iraqi
women and children (killing seven of them).
US
authorities said that they would investigate this bombing and shooting
incident. As was his usual MO, the born
again Christian Bush ignored these apparent US attacks on women and children in
his various speeches and comments to the media.
More on the Hypocrite Bush
There
is no question about it, the born again Christian Bush is a gross hypocrite (as
was outlined in former comments).
Naturally, he is not the lone range on this issue. After all, being a hypocrite is a common
problem in man. And certainly,
Christians are the same as other people on being hypocrites.
As
discussed elsewhere herein, the United States invented most of the weapons of
mass destruction that Bush is now crying about and blaming Iraq for having
(although some of the gas came from Britain).
The
US not only invented the applicability of nuclear weapons in warfare, but the
US has been the only nation in history which has used nuclear weapons against
others--like the A bombs on Japan and uranium enriched bombs on numerous
nations in the Balkans, the Middle East, etc in the various US wars of
liberation (and wars for profit) for the last 20 years.
Not
only has the US used chemical weapons (and likely biological weapons as well),
certainly in Vietnam, but the US has even used chemical weapons upon her own
people (as Clinton used chemical weapons to murder the Branch Davidians, as
discussed in former chapters).
So,
in the 1980s, the Americans sold or gave Iraq huge quantities of these
so-called weapons of mass destruction to use upon the enemies of the American
plutocrats (the Iranians). While there
is some question about how much of this US supplied stuff was used on Iran,
some of it allegedly remained. Whether
Iraq destroyed it all or not was open to question.
In
view of the fact that the US made it, supplied it and sold some or all of it to
the Iraqis for money, the case can be made that the Iraqis would not want to
give it up. So, if they did successfully
hide it or move it out of the country (to avoid detection by the UN weapons
inspectors), it would be understandable in the context of what is a
hypocrite.
The Morality of War
All
along, the war mongering George W. Bush proclaimed that his war effort against
Saddam Hussein and the Iraqis was a “moral” and righteous undertaking (as
suggested in previous chapters on the Christian culture and military service
and war, the case can be made that Iraq is acting righteously in defending
herself while the US aggressors have no moral grounds to stand on).
At
one time, George W. Bush took note of the Russian plans to vote against or veto
the Bush plans for war against Iraq.
George
said: “The president (in reference to
Russian President Putin) would look at this as a missed opportunity for Russia
to take an important moral stand to defend freedom and to prevent the risk of a
massive catastrophe taking place as a result of Saddam Hussein’s development of
weapons of mass destruction” (The Mar 11, 2003, Spokane “Spokesman-Review,” p.
A4).
The
essence of these words from the Christian Bush was that he was criticizing
Russia’s Putin (who was against the Bush war on Iraq) on the question of
morality. Because Putin would not
support George’s cries for war, Putin was immoral. So, per Bush, Putin would be a moral man if
he would support war and death for thousands of women and children.
More Bush Morality
On
Mar 22, 2003, the BBC visited a Baghdad hospital which was treating innocent
Iraqi civilians, mainly women and children, who had been bombed the night
before by US bombs, ordered in by the born again Christian George W. Bush (some
civilians were killed and over 200 injured by the Bush attacks the night
before).
The
BBC reporter talked briefly to a Iraqi surgeon who had just worked on a
five-year-old girl who was bombed and severely injured by the supposedly moral
Bush.
The
girl had a serious spinal injury. The
doctor said that she would never walk again.
In all of the Bush ventilating (and lying) about his morality and his
plans to “liberate” the Iraqi people from the evils of Saddam Hussein, one must
wonder how the attack upon this five-year girl fits into the plans of the Christian
Bush.
While
GWB has argued how righteous and moral he is to bomb thousands of innocent
women and children into oblivion, some Christian Church leaders around the
world took exception to his charges.
For
example, the pope consistently had spoken against the Bush war as being
immoral. The Mar 3 & 10, 2003,
“American Free Press” (p. 2) had a news item that 49 European Christian Church
leaders had also met to oppose the Bush plans with a peace vigil in
Washington.
Though
some of Bush’s evangelical colleagues had supported the war plans, many of the
more traditional Christian Churches had spoken out against the Bush war.
So
while Bush kept talking about his morality in murdering innocent people and
paralyzing little five-year-old girls, it appeared that some ignorant and evil
sun worshipping Christians had brains and common sense enough to speak out
against the Bush plans for war.
Now, the Paradox
So
here we have a Christian US president, who on the one hand was involved in all
of those Christian prayers, talking about morality and speaking supposedly good
words about Gee Zeus, faith, belief and so forth.
And
yet, on the other hand, the same Christian president constantly talked about
fairness as he was preparing to order the slaughter and murder of tens of
thousands of innocence women and children who simply had no money and no means
to escape the incoming US bombs.
Naturally,
young Bush continually made mention of the Iraqi danger to the US. Bush told so many lies about Saddam that it
was totally impossible to keep track of them.
Almost everything Bush charged to Iraq could be charged to the United
States (creating the reality of great hypocrisy).
Bush
did this at his Mar 6, 2003, press conference when he tried to build a case
that the handful of camel herders in the Iraqi desert were somehow a threat to
the US with their sticks, stones and other primitive methods of defense (which
is nothing in comparison with the size, population, technology and
sophistication of the US, which uses her assets to be the bully of the
block).
This
writer can only say that any person who believed those Bush words are at the
idiot level and certainly still in the tooth fairy business.
So
here we have the Christian Bush, who does all of this daily Christian praying,
telling repeated lies, and practicing repeated deception. Admittedly, he does not lie as much as Bill
Clinton, but young George is indeed a liar (as is true with the rest of
so-called humanity).
Thus,
one must come to the place of how is it possible that a Christian man, who
ostensibly obeys the Scriptures and prays daily (supposedly), could also be the
man who tells lies and is constantly plotting on how he can murder and kill
huge numbers of innocent women and children who cannot escape his incoming
bombs and supersonic airplanes?
How
can the two diverse positions be reconciled?
Is this a paradox or what?
The Problem in Christian America
Clearly,
America and Americans have problems.
Former President Slick Clinton regularly told the gullible voters how
wonderful everything was in their lives.
But he is a pathological liar as many now understand (and young George
W. Bush is also a liar, despite all the praying and public show of his
Christian faith). This is reality in the
early 21st century.
Otherwise,
the importance of this presentation is that judgment is knocking at the
door. The United States is not going to
get off scot free for her depravity and evil.
There is a price to pay for sin.
The
point of these findings is that Christianity (and modern Christianity, in
particular) is sadly lacking. This
religion has grossly failed to lead its people in any motion upward toward
righteousness (YHWH’s Torah). Instead,
under Christian leadership, the US and its citizens have degenerated closer and
closer to the animal level.
And
truly, the United States is a Christian nation (as the US Supreme Court ruled
in 1892). Yes, most supposedly loving
Christians in the United States do believe that this nation is a Christian
nation. There is little or no dispute on
this condition.
Some Polls
The
May 6, 2002, “U.S. News & World Report” (p. 42-43) had an article by
Jeffrey L. Sheler on “Faith in America” which really revealed the reality of
how Christian modern America is (as briefly mentioned in a prior chapter). Sheler’s work cited an early 2002 poll which
asked the American public several revealing questions.
In
terms of religious identification, some 84.2% of the American people say that
they are Christians. The other 15.8%
either did not give an answer or was of other religions or atheists/agnostics. While in earlier days, probably the
percentage of Christians in the American population was substantially larger
that 84.2%, this figure is still quite impressive and certainly does not deter
from the fact that America is a Christian nation.
In
terms of importance of religion in a person’s life, some 69% of responding
Christians said that religion is very important and another 24% said it is
somewhat important. In terms of church
attendance, some 52% of Christians go to their (sun worship) church services at
least one or more times weekly.
One
more significant question asked how often the subject Christian “experienced
God’s presence or a spiritual force that felt very close.” Some 40% of responding Christians said that
they have had this experience several or many times in their lives. Only ten percent said “never.”
The
June 2002 “Bible Review” (p. 14) had a news report on “Religion in America,”
which focused upon some recent Pew Research Center polls.
Following
the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in Washington and New York, 78% of
Americans (in a November 2001 poll) said that they detected a increase in the
role of religion in American life. By
March 2002, another poll found that that number had dropped to 37%.
The
Pew polls found that 63% of Americans claim religion is important in their
lives. This figure did not change
appreciably from November 2001 to March 2002.
Some 67% of people believe that the United States is a Christian nation
and 84% believe that people can be good Americans even if they have no
religious faith.
The Bottom Line
The
point of these surveys and Sheler’s remarks is that the United States is a very
Christian country. For sure, the
Christian people think that they are very religious people. Yet, iniquity and depravity now abounds
across this nation as never before in her history.
All
the while that the nation and its people are falling apart in sin and iniquity,
Christian preachers and leaders are preaching more and more and raising more and
more money for their so-called evangelistic efforts.
In
their view, they have been taking their so-called “gospel” to the world for the
last 390 years (clearly, in the last 70 years) and one can easily see what has
happened with this spread of the “Christian gospel.” Undoubtedly, the Christian leader George W.
Bush believes that he is taking the “gospel” to the world with his thousands of
high performance aircraft and uranium enriched bombs.
The
Apr 2003 “Maoz Israel” newsletter (p. 1) offered its view on “God’s plan for
Iraq” which said that “God wants a spiritual awakening in Iraq.” To obtain this goal or reason, “God has
raised up a righteous leader, George W. Bush.
For this reason, God has given him an extraordinarily brave and
courageous ally in Tony Blair, who, when asked by a BBC reporter, said, ‘Yes, I
am a Christian.’”
By
the way, after the Christians George W. Bush and Tony Blair had bombed the
Iraqi people into oblivion and killed thousands more of them (beyond the
hundreds of thousands already killed from 1991 to 2003), the Iraqi people would
supposedly be ready for the Christian flood of missionaries, as was described
in a former chapter herein.
The
US has went from bad to worse. No one
seems to know why and most liberal, Christian humanists could care less one way
or the other. Their religion is mainly
one of talk and hype. Deeds and works
are mysteriously absent from it. Truly,
Americans and their leaders, in general, are in a gross state of blind
ignorance and confusion.
Chapter
545--The Why for the Christian Failure I
The Christian Failure, Revisited
Previous
chapters herein have detailed the enormous failure of the Christian Church over
the past 2,000 years--since its inception in the first century CE. While the pathetic mess is manifest and not
subject to debate, it would be useful to assess the “why” for such
failure. This chapter and the following
chapters will offer this writer’s assessment of the problem.
In
any assessment of the sickness, moral depravity and sin so proliferate in
Christianity, one can draw several conclusions on the “why.” Though this study will not attempt to begin
to cover the multitude of possibilities on this theme, at least a few will be
cited herein.
Manifestly,
in the Word, The ELOHIM places a great deal of condemnation upon the pagan,
false preachers and teachers who have led the Israelites astray and away from
truth. Yirmeyahu, Yeshayahu, Yechezkel
and the other prophets are especially hard on the preachers for their evil and
sins in misleading the people.
As
YHWH says, He didn’t send these charlatans. Yet, they have gone forth and pretended to
represent Him (pretending to be messengers of light and of truth). In so doing, these actual representatives of
Satan (in the form of Christian preachers and leaders) have led people into
rebellion, sin and iniquity.
Of
course, it goes without saying that The ELOHIM will judge preachers and
teachers more severely in the world tomorrow (Jas 3:1). Surely, the height of their rebellion reaches
into the highest heavens. They are
pathetically sick and depraved. To
broach this issue of the depravity of these charlatans, several examples of
great evil from Christian leaders will be cited below and in the following
chapters.
First--Billy Graham, Revisited
Billy
Graham has been cited several times earlier in this production. There is no intent now to dwell on this
man. Suffice to say, he, like virtually
all other Christian preachers, is a very proud and vain man. Yes, the pride problem affects everyone, including
Christian preachers, teachers and leaders (as described in former chapters
herein).
Probably,
it is the pride and vanity issue which tends to make Christian preachers and
leaders such gross frauds and hypocrites (like the Baptist preacher that my
friend Bill ran into by chance in Ohio--as will be discussed in comments to
follow, below).
Anyway,
Billy Graham and former President Richard Nixon were having a discussion in the
Oval Office of the US White House one day in the early 1970s. As pointed out previously, this discussion
was on the power and evil of the Jews in Christian America. As Graham said--the “Jewish stranglehold on
the media has got to be broken or this country’s going down the drain.”
Nixon
agreed with him and cautioned him to be careful and not let them (the Jews)
know how he feels. Neither of the words
of these two important Christian leaders was ever revealed publicly to the
American people until the year 2002 (thirty years later). Nixon, of course, is now dead. But Graham is still alive and still teaching
his evil sun worship to the gullible Christians.
When
this conversation became public in 2002, the first thing that the Christian
leader Billy Graham did was to apologize to the Jews for his remarks. With all of the public silence of both Nixon
and Graham and now Graham’s apology, the subject now crystallizes into some
real revelations about the character (or lack of character) of both men.
The Essence
The
May-Jun 2002 “America’s Promise” newsletter (p. 2) noted this situation and
asked if Graham believed back in the 1970s that America was going down the
drain, why didn’t he “publicly warn the American people?” Of course, this is a valid question.
Billy
Graham was one of the primary Christian leaders of Christian America. Did he not have a moral duty as the watchman
selected by them to warn them of future destruction from their own stupidity
and evil? As pointed out in other comments
herein, Ezekiel 33 covers this express situation where the people select one of
their own (like Graham) to be their watchman.
Graham
had a moral duty to warn the Christian sheep.
Or otherwise, their blood would be on him. Yet, he did not warn the people over the next
30 years--the reason why is exactly because of his pride and vanity and
understanding that the Jews (the Amalekites, ed) would use their media and
other powers to destroy much of his following in America. He was not prepared to give up this source
and pride and vanity.
And
of course, things got worse as the Amalekite Jew bankers/masters and their
controlled media, entertainment and educational powers took the nation into
more and more moral depravity and evil.
So,
what does the fraud and hypocrite Graham do in 2002 when his words become
public? Why he apologizes (obviously, he
is still afraid of the Jews [correctly the Amalekites] and their powers). Thus, the point must be made that much of
America’s problem has to be laid on the shoulders of Billy Graham and other
religious leaders like him. These workers
of evil have brought much harm to this nation.
On Nixon
Now,
on Nixon, he too must bare some guilt because he failed to publicly speak out
in his lifetime (although his words have now become public through the tape
recordings made in the White House). But
in fairness to Nixon, his intent was to someday move against the Amalekite
Jews.
Of
course, he was disgraced and removed from power before he could take
action. Once he was out of the White
House, he could never have publicly spoken out thereafter because the Amalekite
media would have only further crucified and destroyed him, if that was
possible. So, in a sense, Richard Nixon
was simply not as guilty as the lying and deceiving Graham was in this
event.
Even
when Nixon’s tapes and records for history did become public knowledge in 2002,
they made little or no impact on Americans because people here have already
experienced great moral decay--partly because of the power and evil of the
Amalekites (coupled with their own sins because of the evils taught to them by
their Christian preachers and leaders).
The Roman Catholic Example
There
is no intent or need to rehash previous comments herein on the extensive
presence of sodomites and pedophiles in the Roman Catholic Church. Actually, this is not totally a Roman
Catholic problem as some of the other false Christian Churches likewise have
numerous internal sex problems of various sorts.
The
sex problem is probably more prevalent in the Catholic Church because of its
celibate priesthood. But the other
Christian Churches are not to be ignored or exempted from criticism.
But
even after all of the bad publicity and the incredibly gross sickness within
Catholicism over this pathetic mess in 2002, some Catholics still don’t get
it.
For
example, some comments in the media upon the Catholic Church scandal over
homosexual and pedophile priests noted that there is some feeling in the church
that the media had taken an adversarial position on the scandal to oppose the
Christian religion (12/2002, “The Sacred Name Broadcaster,” p. 11).
Because
of this motivational approach, reporters have supposedly went out of their way
to dig up material on the scandal and to publicize it extensively. This view seems to have it that society
should just close its eyes and look the other way--as is the traditional
Catholic approach on such allegations.
In other words, it is no big deal that many sexually demented Catholic
priests prey upon small children.
More From Spokane
In
another classic illustration of Catholic mentality, the Roman Catholic Diocese
of Spokane, Washington conducted a public forum on Dec 16, 2002, to discuss the
recent sex revelations and what Spokane Catholics should do about it.
The
Dec 17, 2002, Spokane “Spokesman-Review” (p. B1-B2) had a story by Virginia De
Leon on “Catholics speak out at forum” which assessed this meeting and offered
some of the alleged “wisdom” and thinking of area Catholics.
While
most of the comments and remarks were so grossly stupid and ridiculous that
there is nothing to be gained by mentioning them, there was one observation by
a man named Paul Barret, a parishioner at St Francis Xaxier. Barret said:
“Christ never promised a perfect church... Our priests are human. They are no different than we are. They need our prayers.”
Barret
must have been completely sold on his advice so much so that he began
organizing a Catholic group called “Prayers for Priests.” However, poor Barret seems to have missed
some of the crucial things about this whole subject.
In
the first place, it probably is alright to pray for these sodomites and
pedophiles--but the correct reaction is that all of them should be arrested,
prosecuted and executed at the hands of the state if found guilty.
But
more importantly, the bigger issue is the IQ level of this man in defending
these sodomites and pedophiles with his words that his church is not perfect
and this conduct can be expected from the Catholic priesthood since the priests
are no different from the rest of us.
Of
course, Mr Barret is manifestly correct on the Catholic Church and Catholic
priesthood. But he simply has little or
no conception about what the Scriptures are all about. Maybe, he knows some things about
Catholicism. But he needs to do some
study of the Word otherwise.
For
sure, he is far removed from YHWH. While
this conduct can be found among sun worshippers, it is not what YESHUA
organized in the vein of the Apostolic Assembly. The point of this is that with the
understanding and IQ level of people like Barret, it is clear that sun
worshipping Christianity has been doomed to failure from day one.
Another Example
There
is still one more useful sample to address here on the problems in
Christendom. This one concerns a Sardis
Sacred Name group in Portland, Oregon, and its publication of a periodical
called “The Believer’s Advocate.”
While
most of the Sacred Namers are dedicated to the word “Yahweh” or some close
variation of it, this Oregon group is much devoted to the word “Yahvah,” which
seems to have surfaced back in the 1930s or 1940s from the works of a former
Church of God (7th Day) preached named L. D. Snow in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
It
is unclear whether Snow invented the name Yahvah or someone else created it and
merely passed it along to him. In any
case, Snow became the promoter of this name and had a limited amount of success
with it. There seems to be two or three
Yahvah Sacred Name groups in Texas and Alabama, plus this one in Portland,
Oregon.
The
Oregon group is headed by a man. But the
backbone of his periodical is the work of two women “Staff Writers” who prepare
the articles. The role of women in
trying to teach and exercise authority over YHWH’s people (including men) has
been discussed at length in former remarks herein. Thus, there is no intent to pursue that
question in any detail presently.
Beyond
the use of women as teachers in this operation, the Apr-Jun 2002 “Believer’s
Advocate” (p. 1-3) introduced Dr Donald H. Garrett, as a “new Staff Writer” to
the Yahvah program. The periodical then
offered a one page letter from Garrett to supposedly tell about himself.
Of
course, the letterhead had Dr. Donald H. Garret (in Greek letters) and a
listing of his degrees and his mailing address at the top of the page (which
was a prison in Texas). It was
accompanied at the top of the page with two feminine Christian angels (with
wings and long gowns and blowing horns), a star of David symbol and a Christian
cross symbol. The letter then
reads: “Introduction.
“Grace,
mercy, and peace from YaHVaH to all.
“By
now you have read several articles written by me, but you may have wondered who
is this Doctor Donald H. Garrett?
“Wonder
no more my friends. Since I have
accepted a position as an additional Staff Writer for the Believer’s Advocate I
will introduce myself to you all.
“I
was born in Seattle, Washington in 1962.
I do not know much about it though because we moved to Missouri, then
Illinois, and then to North East Texas where I was raised. I graduated High School in 1980 with a 3.13
G.P.A. Special courses of study were: French, General Electricity, Typing, and
Vocational Agriculture where I earned a certificate in Horticulture. I then joined the U.S.A.F. Auxiliary where I
served for 10 years in Search & Rescue at various capacities. I earned several awards and my last rank was
1st Lt. As a Communications
Officer. During the same time I also
owned my own landscaping/lawn maintenance company for several years as well as
doing typesetting and computer work at a Computer Club for two years.
“I
married my first wife in 1983, but we were divorced in 1986. It was around 1986 that I became saved
through the leading of one of my landscape customers. I had went to Baptist churches since I was 11
years old, but my attendance was sporadic.
After I was saved I went to an Interdenominational church for about a
year or so. After that I began attending
Methodist churches.
“I
married my second wife in 1989 and we moved to Houston, Texas where my son was
born in 1990. I had been taking
firefighting training and Paramedic training (with a 3.5 G.P.A.), so I went to
work as a Firefighter/Paramedic until 1994.
I worked at the Fire Department, in the Hospital E.R., and for Private
Ambulance services. I bought my own
truck in 1994 and started delivering freight in Texas & Louisiana until
1997. I became disappointed with the
Methodist church in 1994 and stopped going in 1996. My second wife left in 1996 and we were
divorced.
“In
1997 YaHVaH called me to the ministry, so I started studying and going to
Non-denominational churches and I was baptized.
In 1998 I started serving a 20 year sentence for a crime back in 1996, so
I was slowed down in my efforts. I did
not let it stop me though and since then I have become an Ordained Minister,
earned an Associates of Theology degree from CBI (3.8 G.P.A.), and a Doctorate
of Divinity degree from ULC.
“I
have learned several languages including:
Greek, Hebrew, Spanish and Tagalog.
I am not fluent in them yet, but I keep learning. I am currently working on several other
degrees including Biblical Studies, Social Sciences, Theology, and more.
“My
interests are in Aviation, History, Languages, and Religion. My hobbies are listening to AP Radio,
philately, reading, watching football & NASCAR, and collecting pictures (l
like pictures of airplanes, angels, birds, nature, oversees people &
places, and more).
“Other
ministries I am affiliated with or partners with are: Jewish Jewels, KCM, Lamb & Lion
Ministries, and St. Bonaventure Indian Mission & School. I look forward to continue providing useful
information for all of the believers.
You may write me at any time and send pictures...Shalom, Shalom, Dr. Don
H. Garrett (signature) Dr. Donald H. Garrett (typed).”
Some After Words
Tagalog
is a local Filipino dialect used on Luzon Island in the Philippines. As discussed previously herein, inmates in
modern prisons have much time on their hands.
Accordingly, some of them turn to study from correspondence
schools. Religion also becomes very
popular because it always helps in getting an early parole. It’s not to say that this motive belongs to
Garrett, however.
Otherwise,
the above letter and the work of the “Believer’s Advocate” in having the two
girls and Garrett as Staff Writers are most interesting in explaining what is
wrong with this group. While it is
supposedly a Sacred Name group and not subject to the gross paganism of the
usual sun worshipping Christian Churches, it does have many of the same
problems (as for example with Garrett’s pagan symbols).
Too,
even the most simplistic moron or idiot surely has enough brains in reading the
above letter to perceive that here is a man who is totally devoted to himself
in pride and vanity. With all of this
paganism and pride and vanity, it does not spell well for the articles
appearing in the “Believer’s Advocate.”
When one adds in the use of women for instructors, the Portland group
definitely has problems.
Bill, Another Illustration
About
25 years ago this writer had a friend named Bill (briefly cited above) who was
from Eastern Kentucky. At that time, in
the 1970s, Bill was an older man, perhaps 60 years of age or so. On one occasion, he related a story to me
about his experience as a young man in Eastern Kentucky (evidently, in the
1930s, based on Bill’s then age).
As
happens with young people, the time came for Bill to get married and he
selected one of the local girls and they made the preparations. To complete the effort and make the bind
between them, they chose the local Baptist preacher (this was a likely choice
since most people in Eastern Kentucky in those times were Baptists
anyway).
So
they went to the church and the preacher did his duty (for a fee, of course)
and the happy couple took off on their honeymoon. They decided to go up into Ohio for this
joyful occasion. In those days, Kentucky
was a dry state and Ohio was wet, in
terms of alcoholic beverages. After all,
there were a lot of “good” Baptists in Kentucky and they were generally
tee-totalers in terms of booze.
As
Bill was a drinker, of sorts, he and the new wife had a few drinks in
Ohio. With the days of honeymoon
pleasure over, the couple headed back toward Eastern Kentucky. But just before crossing the Ohio River, the
pair decided to stop at one more Ohio bar for a last shot or two before
entering Kentucky.
They
walked into the bar; and sure enough, their Baptist preacher from Eastern
Kentucky (who married them) was seated at the bar drinking. Of course, the couple were obligated to walk
up to him and speak. When they
approached the preacher, he turned pale and entered a state of shock and/or
panic. Bill and his wife said “hello,”
and chatted for a minute.
Just
as they were saying good-by, the preacher, still in his pale state of shock,
pleaded with Bill and the woman-- “when
you get back home, please don’t tell anyone you saw me up here drinking?”
So
Bill and his wife found a cozy booth where they could be alone and the loving
Baptist preacher left the bar, presumably for home. This story of a real event needs no further
explanation. It is the real world out
there.
Some Background on Another True
Story
Back
in WWII, the US built and used a huge number of so-called liberty ships to move
men and material to the overseas military theaters of operations (in the
Pacific or Europe). These large ships
were operated by the US Merchant Marine and not the Navy, as one may first
suppose. In terms of hauling people,
some 2,000 or more soldiers could be packed into most of them.
In
May 1951, this writer was a peon soldier in the Army and had shipped out of San
Francisco on one of these ships (the USS General Hase) headed for Yokohama,
Japan. Being in compartment C7 (which is
down in the hull of the ship and up forward toward the bow), my experience was
not good.
Not
only did the ship pitch, buck and roll on its three weeks journey, but soldiers
were packed in like sardines in rows of bunks, placed side by side and several
vertically. To add to the problem of the
smell and general poor living conditions (enlisted soldiers on a troop
transport live in a very terrible state), this writer became seasick which made
the whole experience pretty bad.
Another Ocean Voyage (Actually My Third
Ocean Trip)
In
1965, this writer made another trip across--this time from New York to
Bremerhaven, Germany, on a troop transport.
In this one, things were considerably different for me. i lived in a state room and got to spend much
of my time on the main deck. However,
something happened on this trip which was to introduce me to the world of
Christian preachers and give me a whole new perspective on things.
While
the US Merchant Marine ran these ships (the ship’s captain was not a military
man, but was in the Merchant Marine), the US Navy had a military department on
board to coordinate things between the military passengers and the ship’s crew.
There
was a naval officer who was the Commander of the Military Department. He had a Naval Chaplain, some administrative
assistants (who took care of manifests), maybe a bursar and some other helpers
who supervised various things. In terms
of work, these ships relied upon the use of the passenger soldiers to be the
workers to scrub the facilities and otherwise perform needed details.
Besides
this superstructure, these ships had a Commander of Troops and a subordinate
Commander of Army Troops and presumably a Commander of Navy, Air Force or
Marine people if they were on board. On
my trip across the Atlantic, there was only the Commander of US Army Troops
(along with the overall Commander of Troops) as there were no Navy, Marine or
Air Force troops on board.
Since
there was a Commander of Army passengers, he took care of most of the daily
problems and the higher ranking officers had little to do--other than make some
daily inspections.
One
of the biggest issues on a transport like this, with almost 2,000 army
passengers, is the question of discipline.
Inevitably, some soldier will create some trouble and present the need
for some disciplinary action.
Our
trip had a couple of incidents which required action by the Commander of Army
Troops (who was directly in charge of army personnel). While this writer was not directly involved
in this discipline by the Army Commander, i was in a position to have complete
knowledge and understanding about what all was involved.
One
of these incidents has completely left my mind, but the second one has stayed
with me these many years. It is this
second event which needs mention here on the sickness and depravity among
Christian preachers.
The Navy Chaplain
One
of the disciplinary problems actually was quite petty and arose primarily
because of the push and desire of the navy chaplain on board. Apparently, this chaplain was primarily
focused on providing weekly sun worship services and attempting to provide for
some occasional entertainment for the passengers.
In
the main, there were something a little less than 2,000 enlisted army people
living in the quarters below deck. There
were a handful of officers and a number of military dependents and a few
retired people on a vacation, mainly in state rooms on the main deck and first
one below.
While
the chaplain may have (or may not have since that point was in question)
provided a minimum of attention on the army enlisted people below deck, his
primary focus seemed to be on the dependents who were largely on the main deck
in state rooms. He was frequently to be
found during daily duty hours in their day room doing something ostensibly for
them.
Besides
being tasked to provide all of the work details, army enlisted people had an
opportunity to provide some of the entertainment, both below deck to the
enlisted people and above deck to the dependents and officers. So some enlisted army people did occasionally
gain access to the better facilities and offerings on the main deck--but this
was not the normal lot of the typical GI.
One
day, there was a work detail doing some work at the dayroom area used by the
dependents. As best as my memory now
serves me, one of the soldiers stayed on the main deck and watched a movie or
something else going on (after his work was finished and when he was supposed
to return below deck).
The
navy chaplain caught him and ordered him below deck. Either at this first encounter or shortly
thereafter on another run-in on the main deck with the boy (a teen age private
soldier), the chaplain became very angry and ordered the soldier below (the boy
complied and went below--it is now unclear to me whether the chaplain ordered
him below once or twice).
Anyway,
the chaplain became very angry and upset and proceeded to try to cause the boy
some great trouble.
Some Background on Military
Chaplains
Whatever
can be said for military chaplains, they are almost always extremely familiar
and on friendly terms with lower ranking enlisted people. Though they are officers and can hob-knob
with the brass, they almost always maintain strong relations with enlisted
persons. When a soldier gets into
trouble or has a problem, his first line of defense and help is usually the
chaplain.
Because
of this relationship, chaplains don’t normally cause problems for enlisted
people. They go out of their way to
cultivate a good relationship and be a buddy of sorts. In my many years of service, no incident of
trouble from a chaplain ever came to my attention other than with this navy
chaplain on this one cruise.
More on the Navy Chaplain
With
his anger and surely some emotional display, this chaplain (who was a navy
lieutenant) immediately went to his boss, the Military Department Commander,
and reported the incident and demanded that the boy be court-martialed and
thrown in the brig on bread and water.
The navy commander referred the chaplain
to the Commander of Troops and the Army Commander.
As
it worked out, the chaplain apparently briefed all or almost all of the
hierarchy on board and demanded that harsh disciplinary action be taken against
the soldier. He was determined to
contact everyone possible that could side with him and go after the soldier
with a vengeance.
The
Army Commander was a young, inexperienced lieutenant who had the task of
dealing with the problem. In his
discussions with the Military Department Commander and Commander of Troops,
there was some agreement that the incident was hardly as earth-shattering as
the chaplain built it up to be.
The
Army Commander did take some disciplinary action and i have now forgotten
exactly what he did. But he did not
throw the boy into the brig to be fed on a reduced diet as the chaplain wanted. Anyway, the chaplain was terribly upset and
he went to great length to have the book thrown at this soldier (which is
something that chaplains just don’t customarily do because of their role with
enlisted personnel).
Anyway,
i do now remember personally discussing the issue with some of the
hierarchy. In so doing, i found out that
the chaplain had some problems of his own.
Possibly, he cussed like a sailor (which is really rare for a military
chaplain as they normally are real prudes), was extremely arrogant and had a
temper (maybe, he was a little irrational as well).
But
the real revelation came when it was brought to my attention that the chaplain
spent most of his time around the military dependents because there was on
board the wife of a military officer stationed in Europe. The woman was traveling alone. And come to find out, she seems to have
traveled this ship on a number of other occasions to go back and forth to the
states.
The
word was that the chaplain was committing adultery with this married woman and
he spent his time with the dependents in order to look after and be around
her. Whatever it was, she liked it
because she went out of her way to periodically traverse the Atlantic, just to
be with the chaplain.
One
of the things that mused some of us was concern that maybe the young solder had
flirted with this woman in some way; and the chaplain, in a rage of jealousy,
became angry and tried to take his hate and venom out on the soldier. This is something that was in my mind as i thought
of this incident for this writing.
For
sure, the chaplain was a very vindictive and hateful man--as well as an
adulterer and bum of the worst kind.
The
point is that these Christian preachers, who run around and try to be pious and
righteous, often are nothing but hypocritical frauds. In any assessment of the problems in
Christianity, one must always assess the evils of the Christian preachers and
leaders (who are so much at fault).
Another Sample--Jimmy and Jerry,
Revisited
A
former chapter discussed the story of Jerry Lee Lewis and his cousin Jimmy in
Ferriday, Louisiana, as the two boys used to sneak around a Black beer joint
and watch the frolicking and sexually promiscuous Blacks eat chitterlings,
shoot craps, dance, have fun, and wildly fornicate (much like one would expect
from a cat in heat in an urban city with a throng of nearby tom cats).
There
seems to be one good reason why Jerry Lee Lewis used to peek in and spy upon
these vulgar Blacks as they fornicated and carried on like animals. Certainly, Jerry Lee liked the Black
music. He surely thrilled at listening
and must have been engrossed and delighted to see the expert Black pianist pump
out a tune.
But
why did Jerry’s cousin Jimmy willingly go to this Negro night spot since he was
a Christian prude and above all of this depravity? Well, the first time this writer watched the
film on “Great Balls of Fire” and the identity of Jimmy was revealed, the why
quickly fell into place.
Just
like Jerry was captivated into stardom and national recognition, the same thing
was to happen with Jimmy--although it took him a few more years to make the
grade. You see, Jerry’s cousin Jimmy was
none other than the famous (or infamous) television evangelist Jimmy
Swaggart.
The
hypocrite and fraud Swaggart was mentioned earlier in how he has been
repeatedly caught with prostitutes whom he performed with in some manner. These continuing sex sins must be given
credit for the destruction of the powerful influence that the world renowned,
tele-evangelist Jimmy Swaggart enjoyed. Jimmy was in tall cotton on the
Christian racket until he got caught several times in sex sins.
So,
why did Swaggart go to watch the Black fornication and promiscuity in Louisiana
long ago? Since he didn’t like the music
(he called it the Devil’s music), is it possible that he went in order to watch
and view the Blacks fornicating like dogs and cats in heat? Frankly, this writer is suspicious that this
was the reason why Jimmy was there.
Years
ago, the great Bluegrass team of Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs had a live
performance at Vanderbilt University.
One of their songs was about Sister Mary and the hypocrite shoes. As Lester would sing it, Sister Mary has
hypocrite shoes on from the Devil and don’t put them hypocrite shoes on him (or
on me, as Lester sang it).
In
order for yours truly to avoid those shoes, it must be noted that one time this
writer and a friend went to a Negro nightclub to specifically watch the wild,
animal-like Blacks. There was no reason
for me to go to hear the music (most of which i didn’t like).
But
there was a reason to go and watch the wiggling, shaking, humping, pumping and
rocking of Black women who act like animals in heat. That’s why i went.
Picking Up Demons?
With
all of Jimmy Swaggart’s sex sins, it is perfectly logical that that was why
Jimmy used to watch the Negroes. And
since sex demons can become attached to a person in sin, is it possible that
Jimmy picked up some sex demons while he was watching the fornicating
Blacks?
And
maybe, my own problems over women and sex can be traced to some of the same
things on my part (of either watching or reading about the sexually promiscuous
Blacks).
The
point of these remarks is that young Jerry and Jimmy should not have been
peeking in on those wild animal-like Blacks as they were frolicking and having
fun. Though the case can be made that
Jerry’s interest was only in the music, this is not the reason for Swaggart to
have been there.
By
the way, in slowly moving to the top of the Christian preaching racket, Jimmy
started small. In time, he was a
sidewalk evangelist. He used to compare
himself with the then better known Jerry Lee Lewis. Jimmy’s pitch was that he traveled the narrow
path to “Jesus” and salvation while his cousin Jerry went on the wrong
road.
One
day, in about 1957, on a Louisiana sidewalk, Jimmy was blasting Jerry and his
sins when up rolled Jerry in a brand new Oldsmobile 88. After Jimmy hit Jerry verbally a few times
over his sins, Jerry threw the keys to the car to Jimmy and noted that Jimmy
needed a new car. Jimmy started in on
that “Thank you Jesus stuff.” Jerry told
him to thank Jerry not “Jesus.”
So
while Jimmy could condemn Jerry and the way he earned his money with the Devil’s
music, Jimmy took the keys and was glad to have the new car. Therefore, who was the hypocrite--Jerry or
Jimmy?
One More Example--Ernest Martin,
Revisited
The
former Dr Ernest Martin of Portland, Oregon has been cited from time to time
herein.
Martin
was a former preacher, elder and leader of the old Worldwide Church of
God. In the old days, when Herbert W.
Armstrong was alive, the old man ruled the Worldwide group with a iron hand. No one could question the old man or his
theories.
At
some point in time, Martin found some things wrong with Worldwide theology and
made the mistake (or blessing, depending upon how one may view it) of speaking
out. Thereupon, Martin was fired and
kicked out of the church (either that or he resigned and left the church under
pressure). In any case, he was
gone.
While
Martin had a tendency to go off in a wrong direction with evidence of
tremendous demonic influence, he also was a good student of the Book and did do
a massive amount of study. Sometimes, he
was able to come up with some points of knowledge (far exceeding the
scholarship levels of most of the Worldwiders).
But he was also handicapped in apparently being demonized with some bad
understanding.
My Letter to Martin
Anyway,
a case came up where Martin really demonstrated his problem in trying to
understand and grasp what all was happening to man in 1999.
The
writer of this study at hand posed a question to Martin in a communication in
1999. Martin was asked if he had any
knowledge of an Ezekiel witness or message which would involve Messianic
Judaism and a racialist motion (while not defined, racialist here meant racial
awareness and identification and understanding of the different races).
Ernest
Martin (in the usual Christian stupidity and mode) became very indignant and
hateful and responded to this writer that “he pays no attention to nor does he
endorse any kind of racist groups period.
That once people know who they are, all racism will go by the
wayside.”
Obviously,
Christian Martin knew very little about one of the most important topics in the
Scriptures (or perhaps he just failed to differentiate between racialist and
racist).
It’s
too bad. But in the modern politically
correct society, where people have grown up and matured learning outcome based
education, most of them are totally unable to handle the word race in any
discussion. Whenever the word is
mentioned, they become paranoid and go to pieces. And yet, the Scriptures and history are full
of the importance of race.
Not
only did Martin have apparent problems in understanding, but it is clear that
he was largely ignorant of the incredible role that Ezekiel (the Scriptural
book or otherwise) may play in the age end in some context or in some
manner.
Of
course, as was illustrated in the above remarks, Martin didn’t believe man is
in the age end in the current situation.
Perhaps this is the reason that he was unable to appreciate
Ezekiel.
Chapter
546--The Why for the Christian Failure II
Some Background on Another Christian
Case
A
former chapter on the Holy Roller problems noted the terrible reality of how
gross hurt, harm and sin entered into the life of a friend of mine, his family
and his “Christian Church” group that he had devoted his life to build.
My
friend was a Sardis Sabbathkeeper and feast day observer. And in terms of the confused Sardis movement,
he was substantially more advanced than many or most of them. This means that he was extensively closer to
righteousness than the millions of pagan Christians who are still wallowing in
pesha sins.
Yet,
he was pathetically limited in that he still maintained his belief and trust in
“Jesus” and “Christianity.” He
apparently never came to any understanding of how false, pagan and evil (in sun
worship) Christendom is in reality.
Tragically, he seemingly never accepted the moral standards of the Torah
as his guide to right and wrong.
The
person involved made a further mistake in not properly assessing the Holy
Roller movement for its demonism. In
time, one or more Holy Rollers infiltrated his religious organization (which he
had worked to build up over many years).
One of the Holy Rollers (a nokri/nekar appearing man, with an
appreciable genetic evidence of descendancy from both Kain and the behemah)
successfully moved in on my friend.
With
the assimilation of the demonic Holy Rollers, it wasn’t long before my friend’s
very Adamic (actually, she was a very fair, Nordic, Shemite woman and quite
beautiful) fell prey to the nokri/nekar Holy Roller. She mistakenly fell for his gift of the gab
and charm. She married him and her line
became defiled.
In
fact, given some years, my friend’s religious work also became defiled as he
died and the Holy Roller son-in-law took over and introduced demonic teachings
and beliefs to the group. Obviously, the
group deteriorated and further spiritual growth was greatly imperiled or
destroyed. As almost always happens,
when Holy Rollers move in, my friend’s work and family were virtually
destroyed.
Curses and Blessings Revisited
In
a way of looking at the tragedy that came upon my friend’s family and work
(actually somewhat while he lived, but profoundly more so after his death), the
case can be built that his line became cursed.
The problem of the curses and blessings in the Torah was highlighted in
a former chapter (discussing the New Covenant).
Thus,
there are some powerful curses and blessings in the Torah for obedience and
disobedience (Ex 20:5; Lev 26:1-46; Deut 23:2; 28:1-68). As discussed earlier, this writer has
struggled with these pronouncements for years in an effort to understand their
application to modern people.
In
the case of my friend, the evidence is massive that he sinned by allowing the
Holy Rollers into his house and work.
Surely, my friend was in state of ignorance and lacked Scriptural
understanding of the threat which came upon him, his family and his associates
in the form of the Holy Roller infiltration.
He acted foolishly. And now, his
lineage is being destroyed (for his and their lack of knowledge--Hos 4:6).
In
trying to relate these curses which have come upon his line and the wording of
the second mitzwah in the Decalogue, this writer could easily build the case
that my friend’s descendants should be blessed extensively, rather than cursed. Yet, in realty, part of his descendants are
now cursed and are being destroyed--precisely, for a lack of knowledge.
That
my subject friend had some obvious shortcomings (by remaining a Christian and
failing to accept the totality of the Torah to establish moral right and
wrong), there is no denying.
But
he was significantly ahead of much of the rest of the world in
righteousness. As noted above, he kept
the Sabbaths and the feast days and evidently lived a moral life by Christian
standards. Yet, his line seems to have
been cursed, rather than blessed.
While
not being fully satisfied in an attempt to answer this dilemma, this writer
will repeat a question raised in the former discussion on this theme. Is it possible that the application of the
curses and blessings in the Torah only come into play when a person is in a
covenanted relationship with YHWH?
While
the generic House of Yisrael is still cut off from YHWH and still existing in a
divorced, non-covenanted relationship, is it possible that the called-out, very
elect persons (described in former chapters) may, at some point in time,
voluntarily accept YESHUA, the provisions of the Covenant and the totality of
the Torah to establish morality (thereby rejecting the sins of pesha, maal or
awon).
In
so voluntarily accepting the Covenant’s demands and the applicability of the
Torah (meaning that pesha, maal and awon sins end and the person begins obeying
the Torah totally and completely), would this action bring a very elect person
under the curses and blessings in the Torah?
Would
this motion open the door to the certainty of having blessed descendants? Would this behavior bring on answers to
prayers (like in healings)? Would this
action produce some or all of the blessings outlined in Leviticus 26 and
Deuteronomy 28? Would this eventuality
make it possible for an afflicted widow woman and orphan children to be able to
receive vengeance when they are oppressed by evil people?
And
possibly, as a minimum, the very elect could enter into a covenanted
relationship with The MOST HIGH at the time of the dispensing of the true
Baptism of The RUACH HA KODESH (which may occur late in the life of
Philadelphia--as was discussed in a previous chapter, and as will be further
covered in Appendix E).
For
sure, there is always the relevancy of Romans 8:28--in that all things work
together for good to those who love The ELOHIM and are called according to His
purpose.
More Trouble Came
In
any case, more trouble came to the woman who married the above mentioned,
mamzer Holy Roller. In later years, she
was diagnosed with cancer (in 2000). It
is unclear whether, when, and how often the Holy Roller husband prayed for
her. But in view of his beliefs in
miraculous healings, it seem a certainty that he prayed often for her to the
sun god (whom he worships and serves).
in
any case, the woman (and/or her husband) turned to the human doctors for
treatment. Within a year, she submitted
to surgery and chemotherapy for healing of the diagnosed cancer (her husband
was to later write and say that “the Lord” led her to the right doctor for
surgery and that “GOD is Good!--to all those who fully put their trust in
Him”).
In
describing her plight in one of his newsletters, the husband acknowledged the
many prayers for her and the need for “intercessory prayer,” evidently for him
(and/or his family) and “the Church.” In
the same newsletter, he cited a number of other prayer requests for other sick
persons involved in his ministry.
Being
somewhat acquainted with these people and knowing full well of the great evil,
wretchedness and demonization which have taken over this family and the
religious group my friend worked so hard to develop, the following letter was
written to the husband pastor and two of his primary assistants (who are related
to his wife).
My Letter
“Dear Christian Workers: This letter has been prompted because of the
crisis which your personal family faces over the question of miraculous
healings from The HIGHEST and my years of friendship with.... Like you, it would please me greatly if The
ELOHIM would heal... and indeed, the other sick people you mentioned in your
news letter.
“As you and your church members
probably all believe, The MOST HIGH is The HEALER of His covenanted
people. This same basic belief underlies
my faith as well. Some contemporary
Christian denominations now parrot the identical basic theology - and
particularly within the Pentecostal and Charismatic motions, despite enormous
different doctrinal positions on thousands of things (in a virtual world of
Babylonian confusion).
“Of course, much of Christendom totally
ignores the question while the Pentecostals and Charismatics give it some lip
service--but with qualifications and limitations. For example, most so-called faith healers and
believers immediately stipulate that miraculous healings are ‘possible’ based
upon the will of The SOVEREIGN or upon the muster of faith on the part of the
sick person.
“In other words, the question of
whether one is healed or not does not depend upon the so-caller human healer or
Christian denomination (or instrument or intermediary); but rather, upon the
faith of the actual sick person (or of YHWH’s will). In other words, when the sick go to a
Christian preacher, like Oral Roberts, any resulting healing will be ultimately
dependent upon their personal individual faith.
In this context, if they are not healed, their personal faith can be
blamed for the failure and not the alleged ‘healing’ ability of the
preacher. Always, the elevation and
status of the preacher are maintained and protected (and this is important
within Christendom).
“Thus, per this prevalent theory - if
you,..., should pray for the healing of your wife or one of your church members
and if they are not healed, the problem would not be because of you or your
church or beliefs; but rather, everybody would jump up and down and blame your
poor wife or the sick person for not having the necessary faith to be
healed. Categorically, this belief is
all bunk and is not Scriptural. Even the
theory that a believer not healed can be charged to the will of the ELOHIM is
essentially bunk as well.
“The Scriptures are convincing to me
that YHWH is first and always The HEALER of HIS covenanted people (II Chron
16:12). In the NT, the ‘commissioned’
persons always healed all and not just one here and there. The only exception to this process arose when
a person was hostile with a bad attitude.
Every person with a good attitude was healed in the NT--including even
stark sinners and people who had no conception of The MESSIAH (like at Acts
3:1-10).
“There was a so-called Charismatic
healer in NE Washington (whom you may know of).
For years, he bragged and boasted about having the gift of healing. Yet, his own young step daughter died of
cancer several months ago and even after he reportedly prayed for her with his
alleged gift of healing. Without being
dogmatic on the stipulated explanation for his failure in healing her, the view
seems to be that it was not The ELOHIM’s will or that she simply did not have
the necessary faith. Few people would
have the brains enough to blame him or his assembly organization (and their
multitude of sins, confusion and problems).
Most would prefer to blame her or The MOST HIGH.
“Anyway, the essence of this letter is
that it is time for Christians to quit accusing and blaming YHWH and the sick
people when healings do not surface (similarly, it can be a mistake to
attribute all miraculous healings to The HIGHEST - after all, people can be
healed at Voodoo and Witchcraft ceremonies and in Satan’s name. Why, because as you believe, so be it [Matt
8:13; 17:20; Mk 9:23]. The human mind
has great power over the human body).
“Instead, the focus should be upon the
preacher and the Christian denomination when healings do not arise. And in making this charge, i would be more
precise and suggest that the problem is one of doctrinal beliefs by the
preacher and the group. In other words,
the group and its leader are not in truth.
Somewhere, their theology is false and they teach lies and bad information.
“Now, this charge is not
complicated. After all, the Christian world
is a pandemonium of division, confusion (Babylonian) and often outright hate
and animosity. While you may not
initially accept that condition, it is the real world out there. Even your own church theology is a world
apart from much of the rest of Christendom (and you surely perceive many of the
differences). Obviously, The MOST HIGH
is not The AUTHOR of this Christian world of confusion. It comes from some other source.
“The point that surfaces is - the
question must be asked if your group theology and beliefs are right per the
Book? Surely you would immediately say
yes. And the same response would likely
come from the other 31,999 Christian denominations (there are now a reported
32,000 Christian groups in operation).
“But of these 32,000, how many of them
are constantly open to new thinking or are spending any effort and time at a
continuous re-examination of their theology and beliefs with a view that maybe
something is basically wrong. Frankly,
there are not many around which would have the guts and courage to stand up and
allow that something could be wrong in their faith. Most will lie and deceive about reality (yes,
the human heart is deceitful above all things--Jer 17:9).
“Anyway, years ago, i concluded that
they are all wrong. Therefore, i am an
independent and am always open to new thinking and new ideas about truth. Of course, it goes without saying that i try
to hold firm things already proven conclusively.
“For example, there is no issue over
keeping the Sabbath. But there can be
problems or questions over how to keep the Sabbath. The Scriptural luni-solar calendar and
festivals are firm with me. But i am
always open to further consideration on how to keep those festivals or how to
calculate the calendar (although after 30 years of study on the calendar, my
position has essentially crystallized in the last couple of years).
“Years ago, it became apparent to me
that there were problems with my personal beliefs and theology (which were in
those past days, based upon traditional Christian ‘theories’ that have now been
proven wrong over the years) and i have had to study much over time trying to
determine their validity and to repent where appropriate. Repentance involves a self examination and
can take years and years (for me, i am still recalling and repenting of sins
done 30 years ago). Importantly, i have
found that all of the so-called healers are patently false and fraudulent (just
as the 32,000 Christian denominations are likewise all wrong).
“This is not to say that i alone am
right and the others all wrong. Because
there are likely problems still in my theology, i am having to continue to
study, repent and change my thinking.
Simply stated, i don’t have it all yet; nor do i know of anyone else who
has it all (despite the many Christian claims of having the truth). While i am still uncertain about what all i
may have wrong, i am assured that the 32,000 Christian groups are all wrong
(since i have conclusively proven them all wrong by the Book).
“So, maybe your church could ‘possibly’
have some bad teachings and you workers be guilty of disseminating them to
innocent people. As we know, YHWH will
judge teachers far more severely than others (the reasons are obvious--teachers
can be guilty of teaching others to sin).
In the vein that you might wish to examine some of your theology from a
different and new perspective, this letter offers something which may interest
you.
“i am in possession of a 30 volume,
4,200 page study (later additions increased the count to some 36 volumes and
some 6,000 pages, ed) which is a compendium of problems in Christianity. You would find several hundred items you
probably never heard of before and things which might make you re-examine your
position on.
“Enclosed is an IBM formatted computer
(PC) floppy disk of volumes one and two in this study (Vol. I-III are on the
Internet at the www.ezekiel-goodnews-people.com web site). It should open your eyes to some of the more
important issues facing Christians that have been sadly neglected. It is set in Helvetica type, single line
spacing (1.5 lines on Contents), and readable with either Macintosh (systems
5.0 or later) or IBM compatible computers with Windows using Microsoft Word
software. This disk is yours free to
either read and contemplate or laugh at and toss in the garbage can (but for...
sake, i hope you will at least read these volumes one and two before judging
it).
“If you read it and want to read more,
let me know and send a self addressed, long, stamped (with 57 cents postage)
envelope and i will send you disks with volumes III to VI-- gratis. If you wish you may announce this same offer
to your US church members and readers.
Send me a request and a long, self addressed, 57 cents stamped, return
envelope and i will send volumes one and two and/or later volumes upon
request.
“Alternatively, you may copy this disk
and/or print hard copies to share with your church members (also please mention
its presence on the Internet at the www.ezekiel-goodnews-people.com web
site). Since the issues are
revolutionary and can be controversial, you could open the door to some
expanded interest and discussion in your group about serious issues which are
simply misunderstood or not understood in Christendom.
“There you have it! i sincerely hope that apathy and indifference
won’t take over and that all of you will take this offer seriously. By all means, maybe you and your group (and
me and others as well) should be constantly studying and considering new and
different approaches on issues from the Book.
Maybe there are things which have been overlooked or not understood
before that could revolutionize one’s thinking and approach to study. Shalom!...”
The Reply
While
most Christian big shots won’t give you the time of the day (when you disagree
with them or don’t send them money), to his credit, the head man of this
Christian group (the so-called Pastor) did write back--viz:
“Dear
Bro... Greetings to you in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, the
Lamb of God who takes away our sins.
“Thank
you for taking the time to write us.
“Yes,
we do believe that God is our Healer in all instances and we are trusting in
Him for... healing.
“If
I read your letter correctly, you believe that the reason that some do not
receive healing is because of doctrinal error by the person or church that is
praying for that person. If that is the
case, then how could anyone be healed, as you yourself state that no one has
all the truth? I do not believe that our
healing is contingent upon our doctrinal correctness, but rather in a heart
that believes in the power of God--one that believes that the blood of Jesus
has covered it all for us. In the New
Testament, Jesus healed ‘all who came to Him.’
Jesus is the great Physician.
Peter, John, and Paul all had the gift of healing because of their
relationship with the great Physician and through the power of the Holy
Spirit. We are not healed because we
have earned healing through our doctrinal correctness, but rather because of
our faith in the power and mercy of a great God. If doctrine entered into it, then Peter
and/or Paul would not have had the gift of healing as they disagreed on a few
subjects.
“I
cannot tell you why some are healed instantly, others are healed over a period
of time, and others are not healed until death comes. Evidently the Apostle Paul did not receive
the healing he desired, although it evidently was not something that was life
threatening. Healing does not come
because one is more deserving than another.
But through faith we believe that God has all things under His control
and He sees the whole plan, while we only see the present. We must have the faith of the three Hebrew
children when they told the king that their God was well able to deliver them,
and He would, but if He didn’t, their faith in God would not diminish (my
paraphrase).
“Our
faith in Jesus holds strong and we are abiding in him and His sustaining
power. His Word is strength and life to
all who believe.
“May
the Lord bless and keep you in His loving care.
In Jesus,... P.S. I have received
instant healing. Also, I was raised from
deat’h (sic) when I was 3 months old.”
Some Comment
It
would be easy for me to completely take this reply apart because it is rift
with confusion, errors and words which completely by-pass my remarks and the
gist of the letter sent him. He simply
never got it and never answered it.
Accordingly, he went off on an irrelevant tangent to discuss things that
were not even at issue or things he simply never understood.
But
his reply does graphically illustrate the confusion in Christianity and why
Christendom has gross problems.
Therefore, it is appropriate to print his letter and my letter to him,
both in full. Only the names of the
parties have been deleted to avoid any inappropriate embarrassment to some of
the people involved.
However,
there are a few items which must be highlighted, as they are profoundly
important to consider in this assessment of the failure of Christianity.
First,
there is no reason at all to believe that this nokri/nekar, mamzer, Holy Roller
man has ever been healed or raised from death or the dead by The MOST
HIGH. Frankly, i don’t believe any of
these assertions. In fact, i don’t even
believe that he was ever raised from death or the dead--through the power of
anyone or any force.
While
his alleged healing may or may not have happened, i don’t believe it came from
The HIGHEST. It either came from the
Devil or from his own mind power over his body to believe that he was healed
(of whatever the problem was that he faced).
So,
if he was healed or raised from the dead, it seems highly plausible that the
actions came from Satan. Satan can
clearly heal and may possibly raise someone from death or the dead (in order to
later serve him). The questions of
healing, the power of the human mind over the body and the power of Satan have
been assessed in former chapters and need no further comment now.
Next,
this so-called pastor actually is so Scripturally illiterate that he speaks of
miraculous healings as being either immediate, or requiring some time to slowly
become reality or that sick persons (prayed for by a Christian preacher) have
to wait until they die before the hoped for healings occur. This is crazy. But it represents this man’s mentality and
even a feeling found in other parts of Christendom.
Surely,
there are no such healings described in the Scriptures--the OT or the NT. When YHWH’s commissioned representatives
prayed for the sick, they were always healed instantly. There is no record that they had to wait and
be healed later or slowly over time. And
it is patently ludicrous to associate a miraculous healing from a true
representative of YHWH as occurring in death.
More
Thirdly,
the man truly did not read my letter carefully.
My focus was entirely upon the faith, belief, theology, works, sin and
legitimacy of the preacher or the group attempting to dispense healings. My very point was that when healing failures
occur, the preachers will not accept credit for the failure. But instead, they will inevitably blame the
failure on the sick person or The ELOHIM.
And
that is exactly what is happening in this reply. The mamzer man involved goes into a
dissertation acknowledging that The MESSIAH healed “all” and that various NT
apostles had the gift of healing.
Then
the reply letter asserts that we are not healed because of our doctrinal
correctness or the reality of earning healing.
Despite the pagan names and his ignorance of truth, these statements
seem true. But my letter never
contradicted those truths. His remarks
here were not even under question.
The
problem is not with the faith, works, deeds or doctrinal beliefs of the sick
person. This was my very point. Yet, in the reply, he attaches those ideas to
the position outlined in my letter (and even after he effectively repeated and
correctly stated my focus on the preachers and groups involved in attempting to
dispense healings). Clearly, the
intelligence of his reply demonstrates the IQ level of his behemah genes.
The
problem is with the preacher and his religious entity, attempting to dispense
healing. Are they false or in
truth? If they are false, they are in
sin and are involved in teaching other people to sin (which is the point of my
letter). Rather than deal with these
issues, the reply focused upon the sick person and the irrelevancy of their
faith, doctrines and deeds.
Fourth,
it would seem to be a little hypocritical to speak about believing in The MOST
HIGH for healing and trusting in Him when one turns to human doctors and
submits to surgery and chemotherapy.
Yet, this is what the preacher has done.
He turned his wife over to human doctors and now talks about belief and
trust in The HIGHEST. Of course, this is
what Asa did when he turned to human doctors (II Chron 16:12).
Next,
this reply is full of the stark paganism and false beliefs of not only
Christendom at large; but also, the Holy Roller movement in particular. This man is a Pentecostal Holy Roller. So it is logical that he would launch into a
Holy Roller tirade of confusion and words about the “blood of Jesus” (Gee-Zeus)
and the “power of God” (Gawd).
Last--if
the life of my wife was on the line, if i truly loved her and wanted her to
live, and if i believed in faith healing from YHWH, i would be very open on any
question about what the problem could be on why she wasn’t healed.
Yes,
i would continually (re)examine my own life, deeds, works and doctrinal beliefs
to see if i am falling short in some way (after all, a husband does
Scripturally bear much responsibility for the well being of his wife). If someone did write me and allow that maybe
the problem was with me, i would certainly entertain the idea and not dare go
on the defensive immediately in an attempt to defend myself and my
beliefs.
The Real Problem
While
it is very easy and appropriate to blame the Christian mess upon the preachers
(where surely much of the cause does exist), there really is one more
over-riding issue. In effect, the real
problem with Christianity has been her people.
The Christian people are fundamentally evil and depraved.
It
is precisely because the people are evil which accounts for the fact that they
have sat back and allowed very diabolically spiritual and physical sons of
Satan to become their religious leaders.
The
Christian people could have always put their feet down and said no. But they have refused to take a stand for
righteousness. They have loved the lies
and smooth things told to them by the false Christian preachers and
leaders.
The Holy Roller Preacher, Revisited
In
the case of the demon inspired Holy Roller preacher, who moved in on my
friend’s religious group and family, as described above, there is an important
point about this whole operation which must be acknowledged.
He
was successful with my friend, the family and congregation because they
themselves were all weak in faith, knowledge and understanding and surely
demonized to some extent (perhaps with Holy Roller demons). Yes, they were extremely shallow on what the
Scriptures say.
Because
of this sad state of affairs in this group of people, it means that a very evil
worker for Satan did enter into their midst and actually promoted his doctrines
of demons quite successfully.
For
example, regarding his letter to me, he could say those very words to his
congregation and they would believe them.
It’s doubtful that there would be even one person in the group who would
question his lies and deception.
Of
course, this demonized apathy, indifference and don’t care (all caused by pride
and vanity that they have salvation and have no further problems) will spell
the ultimate destruction of all of them.
After all, YHWH’s people will be destroyed for a lack of knowledge.
Just
as the mamzer preacher has destroyed the life of the one (older) girl in my
friend’s family, he very likely will do the same thing with another younger
daughter of my friend, if things work out to allow him this opportunity.
The
mamzer Holy Roller’s wife has a very beautiful, Nordic sister still at home and
still unmarried. If the preacher’s wife
does die, as is very plausible, the mamzer preacher will most likely move in on
the surviving sister to place her under his spell (as she is already demonized
with the Holy Roller demons, it won’t be hard for him to ruin her life as he
has ruined her sister’s life).
Chapter
547--The Why for the Christian Failure III
The Church of God Abrahamic Faith,
Revisited
The
Church of God Abrahamic Faith group has been discussed at some length in
previous chapters (and especially, in the sense that from this group something
good may possibly develop in the age end--in terms of the coming Philadelphia
assembly). The incredible sickness and
pathetic evil of this group offer another powerful illustration of how Christendom
has failed.
This
American Christian Church was always wretched and lacking, just as is true with
the rest of Christendom and Christian America.
This writer would not waste time on this pagan group were it not for the
fact that they seem to have a unique role to play in producing something good
in the age end (as discussed in the prior chapters on Philadelphia).
But
in this state of sun worship wickedness, there was historically a certain
presence of sexual prudence (in 19th century America, many of the Christian
Israelites were somewhat prudish on sex) which kept these Abrahamic Faith
people in line from denigrating into behemah animals (where sexual promiscuity
and perversion grossly prevail).
It’s
not to say that the Church of God Abrahamic Faith was ever good--it
wasn’t. However, in fairness, one can
say that from its inception in the 1850s to the 1980s, it had not deteriorated
to the sexual or racial miscegenation levels of the behemah humanoid
class.
With
its attitude on sexual prudence, its rural country bearing and its isolation
from much of the rest of pagan sun worship America, the Church of God Abrahamic
Faith was essentially a White Israelite church during its history up to the
1980s.
However
bad the pagan sun worship was (and it was bad), at least the Abrahamic Faith
people had some capacity for righteousness on racial grounds (because they had
not profoundly miscegenated to the behemah level, as started happening with
most of the other Christian Churches in the 1950s. But all of this was to change in the 1980s
and later for the Abrahamic Faith people.
