CAIN & THE FIRST FAMILY OF EVIL

   There are two types of knowledge:
      1) the knowledge of God;
      2) the knowledge of Satan.
   Consider the knowledge of Cain, the first-born son of Adam and Eve.
   Cain was different. 
   Cain was odd.
   Cain never liked his parents.
   After his younger brother, Abel, was born, Cain never liked him.
   Cain never liked going to church (or worship services) with his parents, nor with his kid brother tagging along.
   Cain never liked the commandments of God, nor did he like to hear his father preach about the ways of God.
   Cain never liked to watch his brother learn the commandments of God, nor to see Abel's obedience to his mother and father.
   Cain believed that he was no longer his father's favorite son, nor the apple of his mother's eyes, and Cain never liked that.
   Cain resented the attention Abel was getting from his parents because of Abel's acceptance of God's commandments, nor for the fact that God accepted Abel's offering while rejecting his own.
   Cain was jealous, Cain was envious, and, most of all, Cain was proud:  for Cain had become a god in his own mind.
   Instead of accepting the knowledge of God, Cain freely received the knowledge of Satan:  and to Satan's will Cain presented himself.
   Therefore being filled with the rage of Satan, Cain arose and murdered his brother by beating him to death, spilling his blood all over the ground.
                          All we, like Cain, have gone astray.
   Like Cain, all of us are capable of receiving the knowledge of God.
   Like Cain, all of us are capable of receiving the knowledge of Satan.
   By rejecting God, however, not only did Cain reject the knowledge of God, but he also rejected the love of God, the forgiveness of God, and the salvation of God for his sin. 
   Consequently, Cain's family became just as evil, for he taught his children to be like himself.  And from the going forth of Cain from Eden, his descendants committed all sorts of sexual perversions and abominations, throughout their generations and across a timespan of a thousand years, until the flood of Noah, at which time Cain's generations died in the flood of water.
   Therefore, Cain's legacy is remembered as the father of the First Family of Evil, for there was no evil that he and his descendants would not do, nor invent to do, for each generation was more evil than the generation before it.  They had no guilt, they had no shame, and they had no conscience. 
   Jesus said,
      "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Mark 8: 36-37)
   Moreover, it must be noted that Cain not only rejected the knowledge of God, but, in so doing, he also rejected the love of God:  for without the love of God it is impossible for people to truly love others.
   Obviously, Cain had no love for others, including no love for his own children throughout their generations until the flood came and swept them away.
   Obviously, too, not only was Cain willing to accept hell as his reward for his rebellion against God, he was also willing to take his children with him to that place of eternal damnation and punishment.
   Like Cain, all of us are capable of making the choice that Cain made for himself and for his family.
   Knowing this, perhaps we should pause and ask the question:
                    What are you going to do about God today?
   Or, are we going to agree with the words of the Bible?
      "Let hear the conclusion of the whole matter:  Fear God, and keep his commandments:  for this is the whole duty of man.  For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil." (Ecclesiastes 12: 13-14)
     
  
  
  

A MAN WITHOUT GOD

   A man without God is no greater than a child without God, for a man without God will believe in the same myths and fairytales that he teaches his children to believe; for a man without God becomes a preacher of unrighteousness, beginning within his own family:  while his children, not knowing the difference between truth and lies, will follow the lies of their fathers to their graves while believing that they are believing truth.
  Without the knowledge of God, there is no knowledge of God in the minds of people.  Their minds are therefore ignorant of God, and the walls of their minds are blank, in respect to God, for no words of God have never been spoken in their ears, nor written in their hearts, and they remain as nomads of darkness:  for the only light they have known is the light of the sun, the light of the moon, and the light of the stars of the heavens.
      "How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?
        and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?
        and how shall they hear without a preacher?" (Romans 10: 14)
   Without the knowledge of God, however, people will live their lives as if they are gods in their own minds, and they will believe according to their own sets of commandments:  writing their own laws as they journey through life---while teaching their children to do the same.
   Without the knowledge of God, the minds of adults remain as the minds of young children:  for even young children like those things they see with their eyes and hear with their ears.  So do many adults!  For they are gullible and easily influenced to believe by the simple persuasion of pleasant voices, especially if they believe they will be rewarded, or if their lives will be enhanced.  They live within their own set of commandments, and, if they incorporate any new teaching, they write amendments to their own constitutions while rejecting none of their previous entries, or endorsements.  Thus these changes are approved by themselves because of their self-ordained divinity.
   Without the knowledge of God, it is easier for people to believe in a person who is made in our own likeness, in the image of ourselves, which is a man; and if this man appears to be not from this world, but heavenly in nature---because of his saintly apparel, such as a priest's garments of flowing robes in shimmering white, and other garments of exotic colors from his celestial wardrobe---they will believe that he is surely a god among them, for his words sound like honeycomb falling from the heavens above.  For his very appearance looks god-like to them.
   Evil is always presented as something good and wonderful to people without the knowledge of God.  While not knowing that they lack the knowledge of God, they are easily persuaded by beautiful women, handsome men, as well as by distinguished gentlemen and ladies, highly educated and wealthy, and especially by those whom are considered to be from royal bloodlines, such as princes, kings, and queens, and even a godly line of kingdom priests:  to whom they incline their ears to the doctrines of these ministers and priests, for these are the upper crust of the world as gods dwelling among us even though their bodies are made from the same substance of our bodies, composed by flesh and bone, and born of women of the earth, who live and die, and are buried in the earth---for these, too, are made in our own image, in the likeness of men, just like you and me.  The only difference, however, is that these kingdom priests are believed to be born of human goddesses (virgins, no less!) which return to their goddess-like state after death, and whom are continually worshipped---generation, after generation, after generation---just like their male gods are continually worshipped.
   As such, people without the knowledge of God will not believe that God created the heavens and the earth, nor that He created all things living upon the earth, including the creation of humans.  Such information is nonsense to their ears, or alien to their understanding, for they have the spiritual minds of young children.  For they will believe they are being lied to by people with the knowledge of God, and that God is no more than a myth or a fairytale.  Just as they have tricked their own children to believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, they have also been tricked by Satan to believe that God does not exist, but also tricked to believe that the Bible is no more than a collection of myth and fairytales!  Therefore, the trick is on them, which they do not know nor recognize, because their minds have been baptized in the deception of Satan.  Consequently, their minds are void of the knowledge of God. 
   Knowing, then, that carnal minds are void of the knowledge of God, they are also void of the love of God because of their rejection of the Son of God, Christ Jesus our Lord.  Rather than believing in God through Christ and thereby becoming recipients of God's eternal love, they will believe in anything and everything that is not of God to stand their ground in unbelief.
      "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.  He that believeth on him is not condemned:  but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3: 16-18)

A GOD COMPLEX

    If I yield myself to a man of the earth, his mind will become my mind, his thoughts will become my thoughts, his ways will become my ways, and his conscience will become my conscience:  for that man, to me, has become my god.  I will covenant with him to do his will, to believe as he believes, to go where he says to go, to do as he says to do, and even to kill if he says to kill:  for that man, to me, is my god.
      "The thing that hath been is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be:  and there is no new thing under the sun."
                                             (Ecclesiastes 1: 9)
   Having a god complex is nothing new under the sun.  We are born with it, but it is also a masterful work of psychological reinforcement in the minds of people by the power that abides in darkness; for as people reject God, they will believe in just about anything and everything under the sun, especially if their minds remain as the minds of young children. 
   Just as easily as young children can be taught to believe in Santa Claus, they can also be taught to believe that a man of the earth is a god.  If that dogma gets to their minds while they are young, they will embrace it and cling to it all the days of their lives:  for that dogma, even though it is a lie, will be believed as truth because young children do not know the difference between truth and lies.  They are simply believing as they have been taught to believe, which is usually by the will of their parents since parents teach their children those things that they believe are truth, which can be a classical case of the blind leading the blind, because the parents have been blinded from the truth that is in Christ Jesus.
   The builders of empires throughout human history have been the works of evil men, self-consumed by this god complex.  Taking for themselves the thrones of governments and the thrones of religions, not only have they exalted themselves to be worshipped as gods, all of them have been men of war.   
   As haters of God, they are also haters of people because humans are created in the image of God.   
   Therefore, their diabolical objectives have all been the same, from one empire to the next, which is to kill people from the face of the earth as unwanted pests within their kingdoms because we, being made in God's image, have been the hunted of evil men for thousands of years.  Even now we are the hunted because the leaders of the world today are just as evil as the men who occupied their thrones before them.
   It is not our fault that evil men choose to be evil.  But what happens to people when they, in fact, submit themselves to these devilish creatures, when they bow to them as gods upon the earth?  And what happens to the children of parents when they have converted to men as gods?  Their children become like them---doing the will of their parents, but also doing the will of their human gods!  This is how entire families become haters of God, for they have submitted their souls as well as the souls of their own children by believing that they will be rewarded for their obedience to these evil men, whom they believe hold the keys to heaven and hell.
   The first creature to exhibit this god complex was, of course, Satan, which is described in the Bible:
      "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God:  I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."     (Isaiah 14: 13-14)
   As humans, we are born with this god complex, which is easily seen and demonstrated in the lives of toddlers.  When they do not get their way, or get what they want, what do they do?  They get angry.  They stomp their feet.  They cry.  If this behavior goes uncorrected, the toddler will become a living terror as he grows older, for he is saying:  "I will!"  "I will!"  "I will!"
   Since we are born on earth and not in Heaven, all of us are born with this "I will!" characteristic, as demonstrated by the facts of our own behavior:
   ---I will to be the boss so I can be bossy;
   ---I will to be the boss of my home and my family;
   ---I will to be the chairperson of the parent-teacher association, or the sports committee;
   ---I will to be seen first, seated first, and served first;
   ---I will to sit on the boards of directors of banks, clubs, and civic organizations;
   ---I will to believe in my religion instead of believing in God;
   ---I will to confess my sins to a human priest instead of confessing my sins to God.
   The Bible clearly says, however,
      "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3: 23)
   But not me, right?  Why, surely I am not a sinner for my human god assured me that he forgave me!  So this Bible talk does not apply to the "I will" in me, for I have been granted a passageway to Heaven according to the dictates of men.  After all, we're going to the same place even though we arrive by different ways.  Right?
   Not so fast!
   As long as we exhibit this childlike "I will" behavior of the god complex, be assured that salvation through Christ will never be possible, no matter how long or how many times we try to find forgiveness of sin, in anything and everything, that is not of God.  For it is written:
      "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.  Submit yourselves therefore to God.  Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." (James 4: 6-7)
  
    

SEEKERS OF EVIL

   As discussed yesterday in KEEPERS OF SECRETS, we should be able to see by the demonstrations of their own behaviors, that the leaders of the world are SEEKERS OF EVIL. 
   Jesus said, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."  (Matthew 7: 15)
   How else, then, are we to evaluate the "fruit" of their labor (the labor of the leaders of the world) when we look at the results of their decisions? 
   As supervisors, how should we judge the leaders of the world in their annual performance reviews if they worked for us as company employees?
   As supervisors, do we determine that they need more training?  Do we give them a raise in wages?  Or do we terminate their employment?  Are we better off with them, or would we be better off without them?
   Consider the evidence in the things we see them doing, but also consider the evidence in the things they do not do:
   The leaders of the world have the power to end terrorism, yet terrorism continues to grow and prosper.
   They have the power to end starvation worldwide, yet they do nothing.
   People continue to suffer from sickness and diseases, yet the leaders of the world do nothing---even though they have the power to provide medicines and medical treatment facilities worldwide.
   They also have the power to enable nations to build companies and corporations that would provide employment for citizens worldwide, which would also enable the people to build hospitals and institutions of education, yet the leaders of the world do nothing to encourage them, nor to teach them the knowledge that would help them to help themselves and thereby become self-sufficient. 
   As industrialized nations continue to grow and prosper, however, undeveloped nations continue to be undeveloped.
   We could go on and on with a presentation of many ways that prosperous and progressive nations could help other nations to grow and prosper, which should reveal to us that the leaders of world are not truly interested in sharing knowledge or the wealth of wealthy nations:  it is as if the world's elite are purposely restraining undeveloped nations from attaining greatness and thereby keeping them as dirt beneath their feet, or as mere subjects and slaves, to a royal class of individuals, whose one and only goal is to rule the world.
   Human history tells us that this is true, for the leaders of all world empires have always been led by angry and ruthless people in order to control and dominate as many people as possible, which is why all of them have always been dictators. 
   This fact should tell us that world leaders today are no different than world leaders of yesteryear, for their behaviors are exactly the same.  As Jesus said, they appear in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 
   Sheep's clothing can also be viewed as fancy suits and priestly garments. 
   As such, when they are not in public view, they are behind the curtain in secret ceremonies of worship at the feet of Satan, for it is to him that they pledge their allegiance!
   Going further, not only are they content to watch people suffer from malnutrition and starvation, from sicknesses and diseases, watching people die is not only something that thrills them, but killing people is their duty!  For they know that it is the blood of people that satisfies their god!
   Therefore, because world leaders worship Satan, they are the instigators and inventors of all things evil; for their minds constantly dwell in the house of evil, and evil, therefore, is their natural habitat.
   Do you see this truth today? 
   World leaders do not want peace because they want war:  for they know that wars kill people:  which is why they continually manufacture and distribute weapons of war worldwide! 
   Instead of closing the door of terrorism, they throw out the welcome mat on the doorsteps of nations worldwide!
   They want people to die.
   This story today is not difficult to see, nor to understand.  Watch the leaders of the world as they appear on television, on radio, or on the internet.  Listen to the words they speak.  Then watch them as they disappear from the face of cameras and microphones.  Where do they go?  What do they do?
   They never tell us.


  


 

KEEPERS OF SECRETS

   We are engaged in a great war and we are the witnesses of this war that is being conducted by men in secrecy from behind the curtain.  They do not want us to know they are there, but they are there.  They do not want us to know their names or their faces, but they are there.
    This war is being demonstrated in front of our eyes in the arenas of prostitution, pornography, pedophilia, drug and alcohol addictions, domestic abuse, rape, hatred, violence, racism, terrorism, murder---fueled in the theaters of politics and religion, filmed by Hollywood, and reinforced by Satanic music and dazzling light shows.
    This war is the oldest war in human history, for it is the war that is against God, against Christ, and against the Bible; therefore, this war is a spiritual war, but it is clearly a physical war that is designed to kill humans, to destroy peace and freedom, and to erase everything good that people have made on the face of the earth. 
   While men are actively talking about peace and peace treaties, the war rages on. 
   While men persistently rattle and rant about global warming, climate change, and gun control, the war rages on.
   While men constantly babble about social inequality, unequal wages, sexual orientations, and opportunites that are not fair for all people, the war rages on. 
   The United Nations continues to gather in New York City and nothing changes.
   Politicians of the United States continue to gather in Washington, D.C. and nothing changes.
   The European Union continues to meet in Brussels and nothing changes.
   Pope Francis continues to go here, go there, and go everywhere, and nothing changes.
   Meanwhile, no war has been launched against prostitution, pornography, or pedophilia.  No war has been launched against drug traffickers or the traffickers of women and children for prostitution and sexual abuse. No war has been launched against rape, hatred, or racism.  Neither has a war been launched against terrorism.
   The most powerful people in the world have the power to stop evil from advancing; but instead of doing something to stop snakes from multiplying, they do nothing.  For if the leaders of the world truly believed in God and His righteousness, they would say so.  Instead, their words are void of the knowledge of God.  They have economic summits and conferences about climate change, global warming, and gun control, but they do nothing about global terrorism, the number one threat to freedom worldwide.  All of them admit that this is true, yet they do nothing.
      "Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field, which the LORD God had made." (Genesis 3: 1)
   The most powerful people in the world are like the serpent in the Garden of Eden.  Dressed in fancy suits and priestly garments, they never tell us the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.  They are masters of deception, cunning and sly.  They speak with split tongues. They want us to trust in them, yet their faces are turned away from evil.  Like Satan, they have no fear of God.  They have no fear of the people they govern and no fear of public opinion. 
   The war against God that Satan launched in the Garden of Eden continues today in the minds and hearts of the most powerful people in the world, the leaders of governments and religion.
   The war against Christ that Satan launched with the crucifixion of the Lord in Jerusalem continues today in the minds and hearts of the leaders of governments and religion. 
   For this is that spiritual war that is being conducted from the Devil behind the curtain through the minds and hearts of the most powerful people in the world, which we are seeing with our eyes in the pain and suffering of people across the face of the earth.  And every day we are watching this war on television. 
   Obviously, there will be no peace on earth---not until Christ returns. 
   Please remember that Christ is not a religion, nor an image of a god, and neither is He an idol made by human hands. 
   The leaders of the world, on the other hand, have been keepers of secrets throughout human history.  So we should not be surprised to learn that the behaviors of the leaders of the world today are cut from the same cloth of evil for thousands of years.  For they never tell us about the results of their economic summits, the findings they conclude concerning global warming and climate change, nor the outlines of their private thoughts about terrorism.  While they appear to be kind and noble, truthful and honest, are they?   

A NATION IN PERIL

   Look at the faces of President Obama and all the politicians in Washington, D.C.  Not one of them is stunned, nor outraged, about the terrorist attack in California last week.  Instead, they are going about their daily affairs as business as usual:  they go to their jobs, shuffle some papers, chat with each other and with the news media, make appearances on radio and television talk shows, then they collect their paychecks at the end of the week and go to their homes.
   With leadership such as this, the United States is a nation in peril.  The enemy is inside the gates and the leaders turn their faces.
   But the United States is not alone in this state of apathy, this state of indifference, and this state of little concern about the rise of terrorism worldwide:  for the faces of world leaders, in the palaces of governments and in religions, tell the same story:  they are neither stunned, nor outraged, at the rise of violence across the earth.  They go about their daily affairs as business as usual:  they go to their jobs, shuffle some papers, chat with each other and with the news media, then collect their paychecks at the end of the week and go to their homes. 
   Relax, they tell us.
   There is nothing to worry about.
   Relax. 
   Go to the movies.
   Go about your daily affairs as usual.
   Collect a paycheck at the end of the week and go shopping. 
   Watch another football game. 
   Eat, drink, and be merry.
   Why, surely, our leaders know best that which is best for us.  Right?
   Meanwhile, the war on terrorism is not a war at all; for terrorists are gaining ground every day while the leaders of the world play war games on computer apps and make telephone calls.
   Take another look at the faces of the world's leaders.  From the United States, to Rome, to Europe, to Russia and China, and to the uttermost parts of the earth. Take another look at their faces.  Look at their eyes. 
   They have no concern for freedom. 
   They have no heart for the bloodshed of innocent people. 
   They have no natural affection and no love for others. 
   Not one of them has faith in God:  no, not one. 
   Not one of them speaks for God:  no, not one.
   Meanwhile, freedom worldwide is vanishing before our eyes.  Little by little and day by day the enemy continues to murder and butcher people everywhere---while the leaders of the world do nothing.
   The United States is surely a nation in peril.  But not only is this nation in trouble, for every nation upon the earth is a nation in peril. 
   Our only hope for freedom must be in God.  But if people do not want God's help, then God will leave people alone:  for God will not go where God is not welcome.
      "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." (Joshua 24: 15)

HUMAN HYBRIDS

   Even now, there are people dwelling among us that are not 100% human.  They look human, they walk as humans walk, and they talk as humans talk.  Internally, however, their DNA is not totally human DNA.
   This truth is revealed to us in the Bible, and if we will believe the Bible, we shall know the truth about human hybrids.
      "And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they saw.  And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually." (Genesis 6: 1, 2, 5)
   These "sons of God" were angels that rebelled against God in heaven, and, when they fell to earth they stole human women, raped them, and produced a hybrid race of people that has endured to this day because of the mixing of demonic DNA with the human DNA of human women. Thus, we should be able to see that their offspring did not contain the DNA of Adam, but the DNA of devils, and the minds of their offspring would forever be a reproduction of themselves---or "evil continually"---and thereby creating a spiritual war against God with Satan's children fighting the children of God from the bloodline of Adam that ran through Noah, through Abraham, and which led to the birth of Christ in Bethlehem; for even King Herod attempted to assassinate Jesus when the Lord was only two years old!
      "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." (Ephesians 6: 12)
   For after the flood of Noah, these human hybrids began their invention of religion, first at Babylon, but continuing as an assembly line of religions that would eventually cover the whole earth.  They built great temples and shrines, filled them with idols of worship, installed temple priests, and persuaded and forced people to come to religious institutions or face death.  They wrote dogmas and doctrines with rites and rituals.  They baptized babies before offering their little bodies as human sacrifices on coals of fire to their gods.  They also hunted and captured human adults for human sacrifices to their devils, who were their gods.  They invented the concept of a "Mother of God and Queen of Heaven", which began in Babylon and which has continued unto this day.
   Jesus faced these "children of the devil" when He met the Pharisees and the Romans, and this spiritual war led to the crucifixion of Christ.
   For the past two thousand years, these "children of the devil"---or human hybrids---have worked continually to keep the Gospel of Christ hidden from people.  They have worked to keep the Bible hidden from people.  They killed the disciples and apostles of Christ, they persecuted and killed Christians throughout the Roman Empire and across Western Europe, and they persecuted and tortured the men who translated the Bible to English and other languages. 
      "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field." (Genesis 3: 1)
   Human hybrids are more subtle than any people upon the earth, for they are just like their father, the devil.  They are brute beasts of the field, yet appearing as nice and pleasant people. 
   Not only have these human hybrids invented pagan religions worldwide, they have also created hybrid Christian churches.
   Beginning in Rome, these hybrid churches appear as churches for Christ, but they are not.  Their pulpits are filled with hybrid ministers, hybrid preachers, and hybrid priests, wearing fancy suits and priestly garments, and, while appearing to be ministers and priests of Christ, they are servants of Satan---spinning webs of deception in the minds of people to distort their minds with words that sound like truth in order to compel people to trust in them and trust in their religion instead of trusting in Christ.  They also use the power of music in worship services that influence people to clap their hands and stomp their feet; for as the emotions of people are stirred, they will believe that this stirring is from the Lord---when, in truth, it is from the devil.
   Moreover, human hybrids have been the founders of every empire throughout history, beginning with Nimrod's kingdom at the tower of Babel.  For all empires have been operations by evil men, mixing politics and religion, and they have worked to dominate, control, enslave, and also to kill real humans ever since Nimrod.  This operation has ceased to exist on the face of the earth by men such as the Pharaoahs of Egypt, Alexander the Great of Greece, the Caesars and Popes of Rome, and also by people such as Muhammad of Islam, Napolean Bonaparte, as well as by Hitler, Stalin, and Musolini.  Add to this list the godfathers of Mafia families, secret societies, the leaders of drug cartels, and the leaders of human trafficking of women and children for prostitution and pornography.
   Human hybrids are also the sex gods and goddesses of Hollywood movies, for they are unashamed to reveal their naked bodies on stage and on film as idols to people.
   Human hybrids are the sex gods and goddesses of music---singing, dancing, and prancing in praise to the devil---while, at the same time, luring people away from God by focusing their attention on the music as they become idols to people.
   In the entertainment world, human hybrids use sex, drugs, and music as methods to lure people away from following God.
   By nature, human hybrids are pedophiles, homosexuals, bi-sexuals, transgenders, and participants in bestiality.  They willing rape women and children---not as much for sexual gratification, but because their behavior is written in their DNA.
   Human hybrids are career criminals, robbers, and thieves.  They are serial killers, serial rapists, and serial pedophiles because these behaviors are written in their DNA. 
   Like chameleons, however, human hybrids can quickly change their personalities and appear to be charming, innocent, sweet and kind and loving, and just as pure as little angels---the perfect person for you to take home to meet your parents!
   In the lives of human hybrids, everything they do or accomplish is on a grand scale of BIGNESS.  They like BIG governments, BIG religions, BIG temples, BIG shrines, and BIG cathedrals.  They like BIG bands with BIG musical productions.  They like BIG houses, BIG cars, and BIG jobs that pay BIG wages.  Because of their DNA, they like BIG stages with BIG spotlights with BIG audiences and with BIG applauses. 
   Human hybrids are dictators and not leaders.  Today, they occupy the BIG seats of governments and the BIG seats of religion.  Their ultimate goal is to destroy real humans from the face of the earth in preparation for the arrival of Antichrist, the false messiah.
   In closing, please remember that the salvation plan of Christ is for real humans and not for the hybrids, for they are children of the devil.  Never feel sorry for them, nor have sympathy for them, for their DNA is not 100% human DNA, and their evil behaviors will never change.
   Is the truth of the Bible becoming more clear?
   Is the truth of Christ becoming more clear?
      "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3: 16)

BLACK FRIDAY

   Would it be fair to say that perhaps as much as 90% of church people across the United States are uneducated in the Scriptures, the Holy Bible?
   Would it also be fair to say that, over the past sixty years, America's children have been educated in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, Halloween, Saint Patrick's Day, Mardi Gras, television, movies, music, video games, sports, fashion, cars, and money?
       "And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth."  (Matthew 9: 1)
   As Jesus passes by the United States today, how many adults does He see in churches and religious institutions that have been blind to Him since their birth?  How many people does He see that have no education in the knowledge of God?
  They gather in churches, they sit on pews.  They fold their hands and close their eyes.  They have no Bibles.
        "If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."  (Luke 16: 31)
   America's future begins today.
   The future of the world begins today.
   Do we want a continuation of the past sixty years? 
   With Christ, we can change the future; but without Him, we can do nothing:  at which time every day will be a Black Friday, or a day of darkness, seven days a week.

LIVING IN CAESAR'S WORLD

   Therefore being saved by the power of Jesus Christ, we are also saved from the power of this world system.  Even though we are still living in this world, we must learn to disconnect ourselves from this world system, for with Christ we have been unshackled.  Whereas before we were slaves to sin, but now we are free because Christ opened the prison gates.
   Yes, we are still workers in the field, and, yes, we still pay taxes to Caesar, and, yes, we are still subjects to the laws of Caesar because we are still living in Caesar's world.
   Caesar, however, believes he is a god in his own mind:  demanding worship and demanding obedience to his commandments.  He likes for people to kneel to him and kiss his ring.  He likes to ride on his chariot through the streets and bathe in the praises of his people.  For in Caesar's own mind, the earth and all of the people belong to him.
   Therefore being born again in Christ, however, our connectivity is now with God, and our link to Caesar has been broken.
   Why, then, do we still live as if we are in bondage to Caesar?
   Perhaps we need to remind ourselves that Caesar does not own the earth as well as to remember that Caesar is not a god.
   But breaking our connectivity with Caesar's world is not easy to do, for in our lifetimes we become attached to Caesar's systems as umbilical cords---living as if we are receiving vital nutrients from our own mothers.  Though breaking these cords is not easy; neither can we do it by ourselves:  for we need help from God. 
   For even Moses experienced doubt when God called him to do what appeared to be an impossible task, saying to God,  "Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?"  (Exodus 3: 11)  But when God strengthened Moses in his weakness, his faith in God was greater than his fear of Pharaoh's world.
   The disciples and apostles of Christ had less education than a high school diploma, and perhaps, like Moses, they felt unqualified and unprepared, saying Who am I?   But when God strengthened them, their faith in God was greater than their fear of Caesar's world.
   Like Moses, all of us have our weaknesses.  Fear can grip and bind us as we consider things as impossibilities, for Caesar's world is attractive to our eyes and to our senses.  The aroma of success and popularity is appealing.  The smell of new clothes, new cars, and new houses can lure us into a web of debt, so that we buy today and pay forever.  We live for the moment.  We live for the thrill.   And when the thrills no longer thrill us, we can easily plunge into the arenas of drugs and drinking for another sensation beneath Caesar's trapdoor.  For the ways of Caesar's world are the same as sticky glue.
   As Christians, some of us will never own new clothes, new cars, or new houses.  Our faces will never appear on glossy covers of slick magazines.  Photographers will never rush to our doorsteps to snap our pictures.  Some of us will never write a song, write a book, or preach a sermon.  And some of us will live our lives, going on with Christ, and the world will never know that we were here.
   Yet, some of us will never do anymore than we are doing now unless we stop and ask God, Who am I?  And when God strengthens us, we will do far more than we could ever imagine, even with others never knowing our names. 
   Over the past two thousand years, the martyrs of Christ were slaughtered as sheep in the hands of Caesar.  They were buried in holes of the earth without tombstones.  To us, they are anonymous.  But we are where we are today because of the blood they shed for us, which should compel us to believe that Caesar's world is small and not really that important when we consider Christ and His love for us and for the future He has planned for us. 
   So then, it is not important that people should know all that we do, but rather that which Christ can do through us for His glory.  No matter how small we may think we are, and perhaps to think that the little things we do are not important, they are important to God.  For even the building of a house begins with one nail, but it takes a thousand nails, working together, to hold the house together.
      "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." (1st Corinthians 2: 9)
  

PHARISEES: A SECRET SOCIETY

   Members of secret societies hide behind the veil of governments, religions, and even in churches; therefore, we should not be surprised to learn that the men that killed Jesus were members of a secret society.
   The scribes and Pharisees were members of the Cabala (also spelled Kaballah), a secret society that has been traced back to Nimrod in Babylon, which was and is and shall always be:  Satanic worship.  This explains the intense anger that Jesus expressed toward these people with seven woes:
      "But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men:  for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
      "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayer:  therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
      "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
      "Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
      "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cumin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith:  these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
      "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
      "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchers of the righteous.
      "Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
                                                                            (Matthew 23: 13, 14, 15, 16, 23, 25, 27, 28)
   The men that killed Jesus operated behind a veil of secrecy, even the secret desires of their hearts.
         Their arrest of Jesus was in secrecy, under the cover of darkness.
         Their trial of Jesus was conducted in secrecy, under the cover of darkness.
         They took Jesus to see Pontius Pilate in secrecy, under the cover of darkness.
   So that by the time the people of Jerusalem stopped for lunch, Jesus of Nazareth was being nailed to a cross at Golgotha, for they did not know about the secret plot of evil men to kill Jesus.
   The modus operandi (method of operation) of secret societies has never changed and will never change, just as a snake will always be a snake:  for the people of secret societies are engaged in Satanic worship. 
   Even today, there are Pharisees among us:
        They hide behind the veil of governments, religions, and even churches. 
        They operate with arrogant pride and with dual personalities. 
        They live among us, walk among us, and are faithful members of religions and churches.    
        Some live under the assumed identities of pastors, preachers, ministers, and priests.
        They recruit young people to be like them, just as Adolph Hitler recruited children.
        Perhaps their greatest topic is money, for they are keepers of the gold and the silver.
        Behind closed doors and in secret meetings, however, they turn their faces around.
   People of secret societies desire to keep their secret a secret, not wanting their association with secret societies to become public information:  for they do not want people to know of their secret lives nor secret agendas. 
   Like the Pharisees that Jesus faced, today's Pharisees do not want people to know that they worship Satan as well as hate the Son of God.
   The ultimate purpose of secret societies is to keep the knowledge of God, the knowledge of Christ, and the knowledge of the Bible hidden from people---while believing in the mystery religion of ancient Babylon.
   Before leaving this page today, please read again the seven woes of Jesus to the scribes and Pharisees.
     
     

JERUSALEM: THE GARDEN OF EDEN

       "Thus saith the Lord GOD; This is Jerusalem:  I have set it in the midst of the nations and countries that are round about her."  (Ezekiel 5: 5)
   Have you ever wondered why the land of Israel is so important to God?  And have you ever wondered why the city of Jerusalem is also important to God?
   While people have been searching the globe for Eden and the garden of Eden, and even to reduce the story to no more than a myth or a fairytale, we find that the truth of this story has been beneath our noses and in front of our eyes as we have been reading the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.
   The story of Adam and Eve is a true story, however, and this story is also a prophetic picture of events that followed the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the garden.
   Today, let us begin to see this truth as we begin at the beginning in the Bible book of Genesis.
      "And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed." (Genesis 2:8)
      "And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also is in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil." (Genesis 2: 9)
     "And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted and became into four heads." (Genesis 2: 10)
   The names of the four rivers are Pison, Gihon, Hiddekel, and Euphrates.
   In these three verses, it is important that we give special attention to three facts:
      1.  that the garden was eastward  in Eden;
      2.  that the names of the two trees of the garden are major themes;
      3.  that the river that went out of Eden is not named.
   Knowing that the Bible is true, then we should also be able to believe that Adam and his family---up to and including Noah and his family---were residents of Eden, which is where Noah built and launched the ark upon the waters of the flood, which landed on the mountains of Ararat.  From there, Shem, the son of Noah, returned to Eden to re-claim the ground of his ancestors, to the place where human life began, and to establish Salem, which, centuries later, would become Jerusalem, the capital city of Israel, and the City of David.
      "And Melkizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine:  and he was the priest of the most high God."  (Genesis 14: 18)
   So then, why is the land of Israel and the city of Jerusalem so important to God?  It is because the land of Israel is the geographical location of ancient Eden?  And is it because Jerusalem is the geographical location for the ancient garden of Eden?
   "Beneath Jerusalem, a River Runs Deep"  is the title for a news article that was written by Bridges For Peace on August 1, 2011.  To quote:
      "Excavators digging for a new railway station deep under the surface of central Jerusalem have discovered what geologists say is the largest underground river ever found in Israel...the longest underground stream that we have ever seen...a kind of canyon that has been cut by the stream of the water over a long period of time."
   Is this river beneath Jerusalem the river of Eden?
      "And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads."  (Genesis 2: 10)
   Moreover, just as the garden of Eden was eastward in Eden, Mount Moriah is also eastward in Jerusalem; and on the northern slope of Mount Moriah is a place called Golgotha, where Christ was crucified.  Thus, that which Adam lost in the garden of Eden was redeemed by the blood of Christ in the same place, for "the tree of life" was the pre-incarnate Jesus in the garden of Eden.
   Just as Melkizedek, king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine to Abraham, Jesus also brought forth bread and wine to the disciples during the last supper in Jerusalem.
   Just as Satan entered the garden of Eden by possessing the body of a serpent, the devil also entered the garden of Gethsemene by possessing the body of Judas Iscariot, at which time he kissed the face of the Son of God.
         The garden of Eden was set in the midst of the earth.
         The tree of life was set in the midst of the garden.
         Jerusalem is set in the midst of the earth.
         The tree of life was crucified and resurrected in Jerusalem in the midst of the earth.
   The tree of life is also seen in the future in the new Jerusalem:
   First:
      "And I saw a new heaven and a new earth:  for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.  And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." (Revelation 21: 1-2)
   Secondly:
      "And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of throne of God and of the Lamb.  In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the TREE OF LIFE, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month:  and the leaves of the trees were for the healing of the nations." (Revelation 22: 1-2)
   Therefore, the tree of life was in the garden of Eden, the tree of life was in Jerusalem, and the tree of life is in heaven, which means that Christ is the tree of life.
   In conclusion,
      Are we to believe that Israel is the land of ancient Eden?
      Are we to believe that Jerusalem is the location for the garden of Eden?
      Are we to believe that the river that flows beneath the streets of Jerusalem today is the same river that "went out of Eden to water the garden"?
   Why not?
      "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
        the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrews 11: 1)
     
  
  

BENEATH THE FLOORS

    The common theme that runs through all empires in human history is money, sex, greed, lust, envy, jealousy, and murder, so that every empire built by man has always been a monster, and every empire has been built on a pagan religion. 
   Knowing this, we should be able to see and believe that the powers that rule empires are pagan priests, operating beneath the floors where they abide, casting spells from divination, sorcery, and astrology, thereby dictating to the kings and queens the will of the gods.  In other words, the devil is alive and living beneath the floors of empires and pagan religions.
   Which begs the question:  can anything good come out of Babylon, Egypt, Greece, or Rome?  Certainly not!  Because the theme of each empire has been the same.  So no matter if a person is a Babylonian, an Egyptian, a Grecian, or a Roman, he is still a slave under the same system of money, sex, greed, lust, envy, jealousy, and murder.
   Even in governments and religions worldwide today, they operate within this system that is six thousand years old. 
  Not only does this system operate in governments and religions, but the same system is alive in cities, communities and neighborhoods, as well as within families. 
   Over the past six thousand years, the whole earth has been a killing field as empire after empire has viciously massacred millions and millions of people, to rule and to reign, or as if man has been trying in desperation to fulfill the will of the gods, which is to destroy mankind from the face of the earth.
   At the tower of Babel, the people said:  "let us make us a name." (Genesis 11: 4)
   One king builds, another tears down to make a name for himself.
   One king falls, and the next desires a kingdom bigger and better than the king before him to make a name for himself.
   One Pharaoh falls and the next builds bigger pyramids to make a name for himself.
   One Caesar falls and the next builds a bigger palace to make a name for himself.
   One kingdom falls and the next expands its borders of occupation to make a bigger kingdom.
   Throughout the pages of history, this same system has always been there:  money, sex, greed, lust, envy, jealousy, murder:  an assassination, a knife in the back, a poisoned drink, or a dagger under the pillow.  Kings kill queens, queens kill kings, and the king's son will kill the father to take his throne to make a name for himself. 
   Hidden within this system, too, has been the sexual abuse of children for thousands of years.
   Even on the day when Christ was crucified in Jerusalem, the Jews said unto Pontius Pilate:
      "We have no king but Caesar." (John 19: 15)
   Again, speaking to Pilate about Jesus, the Jews said:
      "His blood be on us and our children." (Matthew 27: 25)
   For it was on that day in Jerusalem when the Jews formed a coalition with Rome, a coalition that was built on a pagan religion, thus producing a coalition which has been operating as a secret coalition for the past two thousand years:   out of which pagan priests have spread the coals of money, sex, greed, envy, jealous, and murder all over the world---under the dome and beneath the floor of pagan Rome, bringing nations and religions together as one for power over people, to rule and to reign:  for the New World Order is none other than a New World Empire.
   Jesus, however, came to earth to demonstrate the love of God, and He also came to teach the love of God to people.  Millions of people have accepted this love of God through Christ, and it is this love of God that we try to demonstrate in our own lives, within our own communities and neighborhoods.  For the love of God will not be found in the kingdoms of this world.
      "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3: 16)
      

BEHIND CLOSED DOORS

   We limit ourselves by our own limitations.  By putting our minds in a box and closing the lid, we can lock ourselves away within ourselves, refusing to believe that anything can be believed outside of ourselves, outside of our traditions and values, personal opinions and philosophies, mixed with religious and political persuasions, and thereby seal ourselves away in the privacy of our own minds, behind closed doors, refusing to come out to make ourselves known.  As such, we can live our lives in the secret society of self.  This way, we can present ourselves according to the image we want others to see as we appear on the outside, but not allowing others to enter our secret dwelling place, nor to know the decisions we make in our secret committee meetings with self, behind the closed doors of our minds, which does not include a secret code, a secret knock on the door, nor a secret handshake. 
   Because people have the power to turn the key, people can keep the door of their minds locked.  They can live their lives in stone-cold silence.  Their faces can be read like tombstones without a script.  They seldom smile, rarely laugh.  They sit, they stare, they look around.  Their topic of the day is usually the same as yesterday:  "How's the weather?" 
   If you were asked to speak at the funeral of Jesus, what would you say about Him?
   Would you look around and say:  "How's the weather?"
   No, you would need to ask His family and friends to tell you about Him.
   One said He was from Galilee.   Another tells about His childhood days in Nazareth.  A few say they saw Him turn water into wine, walk on water, and raise a dead man to live again.  A woman said she gave birth to Him while she was a young virgin.  You make notes.  You write it all down.  Then you stand and speak the words of others about a person you never met.  You stay and watch the stone roll across the face of the tomb, then you go home.
   Until people are willing to roll the stone from the face of their minds, the Light of Christ will never come in.  They will remain there, living behind closed doors, and the most they will ever know about Christ is from the words they hear from others.  If they go to church, they will take their boxes of crayons and coloring books, their notepads to doodle, and their iPhones to text and check the weather.  They will wear the appropriate clothing for the day.  They will sit, they will stare, they will look about.  They will bow their heads, close their eyes, and peek at their watches.  For in their minds they believe it is good to be seen in the house of the Lord.  But when they leave the building, they will not know anymore about Christ today than the day they spoke at His funeral.
   But let us stop here for a moment.
   If we in the church do not believe that Christ is alive and living, what are we doing there? 
   If we in the church do not believe that Christ is alive and living, do we not think that others will see through our hypocrisy behind closed doors?
   Is the story of Christ no more than just a story in a storybook that we read and hear about from time to time, then close the book?  Or is going to church no more than fulfilling a family tradition, or a religious ritual behind closed doors?  For if I do not believe that Christ is alive and living, would I dare try to persuade others that Christ is living now, or that Christ is the Savior of my soul? 
   The funeral of Jesus was a serious matter.  His family and friends were hurting people on that day in Jerusalem.  The death of Jesus was painful to them.  They wept, they cried, they were in mourning, not wanting to eat food or drink water, and not wanting to sleep.  They had watched in agony as Jesus died a death of agony.  His body was bruised, battered, and bleeding.  Then they watched as people gathered the lifeless body of Christ and laid Him in a tomb.
   At best, perhaps we are feeble in our attempt to tell the story of Christ.  Even this page you are reading now is a writer's feeble attempt to tell a story that has been told a thousand times.  But who are we behind the closed doors of our own minds?  Are we to keep the story of Christ in our minds and not let Him out?  Or is Jesus to remain our little secret?
   But if we do not believe that Jesus died, how can we believe in His resurrection?  And if we do not believe in His death, nor in His resurrection, then what story do we have to tell?
   If, however, my church attendance is all about me and not about Christ, then I don't need to go to church to do that.  For I can worship me without ever leaving home---in my own mind and with the lid closed---not knowing or ever believing that my mind will become my tomb.
      "And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:  that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God." (1st Corinthians 2: 4-5)


  
  

A WHEEL OF FORTUNE

   Religions have been operating as a wheel of fortune for thousands of years, and this system has never changed.  
   As people give and give and give, the leaders of religions have been living rich and lavish lifestyles for thousands of years, and this system has never changed.
   Today, as we look across the landscapes of religions, what do we see?
   We see people giving and giving while the leaders live rich and lavish lifestyles.
   Among many churches, too, in the United States and other nations, what do we see?
   We see people giving and giving while the leaders live rich and lavish lifestyles.
   Bring us your old, bring us your young, but, most of all, bring us your money.
   Rid yourselves of your sin and greed and give your money, your prize possession, and render your legal tender, your gold and your silver, unto Caesar.
   Give to the needy, give to the poor, but, most of all, give unto Caesar.
   Give unto Caesar and Caesar will give you more.
   Caesar will give you peace of mind.
   Caesar will give you salvation.
   Caesar will open the gates to enter Rome, the Eternal City.
   Governments have also been operating as a wheel of fortune for thousands of years, and this system has never changed.
   As people give and give and give, the leaders of governments have been living rich and lavish lifestyles for thousands of years, and this system has never changed.
   Bring us your old, bring us your young, but, most of all, bring us your money, your prize possession, and render your legal tender, your gold and your silver, unto Caesar.
   Give to the needy, give to the poor, but, most of all give unto Caesar.
   Give unto Caesar and Caesar will give your more.
   Caesar will give you health insurance, balanced wages, pharmaceuticals, and a housing project that is equal to others, even if such a place is a tent city.
   Caesar will open the gates to enter Rome, the Eternal City.
   The face of Caesar is found in religion and in government, for Caesar is the god of both.
   The wheel of fortune goes round and round as Caesar promises with the voice of Satan:
      "All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me." (Matthew 4: 9)
  
  

HEAVENLY SONSHINE

   Blind people see through hearing.
   Our eyes see reflections of images, which can deceive or blind us from truth; but our minds can also be deceived and blinded from truth by the words we hear.  For if people are either blind, or unable to read, then they must rely on hearing to believe.
   If reading is not included in educational development, how easily can people be programmed by the words they hear from the time they are toddlers?  After which, they will arise and perform the words of the program.  Keeping them isolated from others will enhance and hasten their programmed adaptability.
   For example, people can be programmed by the words of religion, and, once their indoctrination is completed, they will arise and perform the functions of the program, which we could easily call PROGRAMMED RELIGION.  Or we could call it MIND CONTROL.
   Do we not write programs for computers?  We can also write programs for human minds, spoken orally into the minds of people through their ears.
   Mind control experts know that the power of hearing is greater than the power of seeing!
   So then, how important are words?  And how important is hearing when compared to seeing?
   Knowing these things, why do you suppose the Bible has been treated as forbidden fruit to people of religions for more than two thousand years?  Is it because the ministers and priests of religions do not want their people to read or hear the truth of God's Word, for the Word of the Lord will break the spell of mind control and set the captives free?    Of course!  For religion does not want people to be free!
      "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." (Hebrews 4: 12)
      "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:  in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them." (1st Corinthians 4: 3-4)
      "How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him in whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?" (Romans 10: 14)
      "Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things that are written within." (Revelation 1: 3)
      "This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."  (Matthew 24: 14)
   Good news travels by word of mouth to our minds.
   Bad news travels by word of mouth to our minds.
   Gossip travels by word of mouth to our minds.
   No matter if we read or hear good news, bad news, or gossip, those words travel to our minds.
   Our minds is our seat of authority.
   It is in our minds where we reign supreme.
   It is in our minds where we make decisions, or choices, based on those things we see and read with our eyes and hear with our ears.  No matter if those things or words are truth or lies, or good or evil, all of that information travels to our minds through our ears and to our seat of authority.
   A blind person does not have the option of seeing or reading, so he must rely on hearing only.
   Jesus said, "I am the light of the world."
   Jesus, therefore, is light.  God is also light and the Holy Spirit is light.
   The words of the Lord proceed from the mouth of the Lord and therefore the words of the Lord are also light because light comes from light.
   So, no matter if we read or hear the words of the Lord, these words of light travel to our minds and expose the darkness of our minds, which is our sin.  Many people believe in the words of the Lord, accept Christ as their Savior, and walk in newness of life.  On the other hand, many people reject the words of the Lord and return to living in the darkness of their minds, which is to continue to live in their sin.
   When we accept Christ, however, the light of the Lord abides in us.  As Jesus said, "Ye are the light of the world"---for we are now children of light and no longer children of darkness.
   As it is written in the Word of the Lord, "your body is the temple of the holy Spirit"---for the Light of God, who is Christ, abides in us in the Person of the Holy Spirit.  The name Emmanuel means God with us, which means that God is with us and in us in the Person of the Holy Spirit, when with our minds we accept Christ.
   As stated, the seat of our authority is our minds.  Our minds are important to us.  But our minds are also important to God.  For this reason, the devil, who is the god of this world, works to keep our minds blinded from receiving the light of the Lord, to keep us prisoners of darkness, to keep us living in sin, and to keep us turning away from Christ, which is to keep us from the Lord's salvation.
   Jesus is light, God is light, the Holy Spirit is light, and the Bible is light; therefore we can believe that the light of God is holy light.
   For these reasons, obviously, Satan works to gain access to human minds, to climb upon the seat of authority inside the heads of people, deceiving them to believe that they are right and that God is wrong, thereby blinding their minds to the Gospel of Christ and to God's holy light!
      "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
                                     (2nd Corinthians 11: 14)
   In a way that is easy to understand, all witches are evil.  No matter if one appears in garments of blackness, and no matter if one appears in angelic white, both are on the same team---and Satan is their god.
   To conclude, let me tell that when I was a religious Christian, I did not know I was not a Christian.  But when I opened my ears and let the light of Christ come in, I became one.  For I was also blind, but I came to believe in Christ through hearing, which is how I came to know that Christ is heavenly Sonshine.

NAZARETH

   Nazareth was a dirt-poor town, with nothing fancy, and nothing to brag about. 
   Living under the heel of the Roman Empire was enough in itself to drive the people crazy!  
   But there they were, living on their own land and in their own hometown, the people of Nazareth were no more than slaves to Caesar, who cared not if the people lived, or if the people died.
   If that alone was not sufficient for the people to endure, the department of religion triple-taxed the people:  a tax for the priests and Levites, a tax for temple sacrifices, and a tax for the poor.
   The corrupted tax collectors of the internal revenue system wanted their unfair share, too, and they worked tirelessly and endlessly to squeeze another mite or two from the fingers of working Nazarenes. 
   Jobs were scarce.  Money was small and constantly vanishing.  The people labored for meager wages, wore cheap clothes, and did their best to eke out a living off the land.  For them, life was difficult, life was oppressive, life was painful, and Nazareth had all the earmarks of a Roman internment camp.
  What was there for children to do in Nazareth?
  What was there for teenagers to do without any arenas for entertainment?
   For parents, merely feeding hungry mouths each day was a burdensome stone upon their shoulders!
   Perhaps these experiences compelled the Nazarenes to remember the days of old when their people were slaves in a foreign land as they recalled the words of the Psalmist:
      "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.  We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof." (Psalm 137: 1-2)
   Perhaps now they could sit down by the Roman Road in Nazareth and weep a sad song.
   All of these uncertainties, of course, prompted the questions---
              "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" (John 1: 46)
   Joseph and Mary lived there, in Nazareth, a community of about two hundred souls.  They were poor people, too.  Like their neighbors, they were faithful in their worship on the Sabbath in the synagogue--- dressed in nothing fancy, nothing to brag about, for the only clothes they had were the clothes they wore.  Their trust was still in God regardless of their circumstances, and they never complained about the hardships of their hometown.
   Of all the places on earth, however, would any person anywhere ever believe that it would be in Nazareth where a man would arise to be called a prophet, a priest, and a king?  That a person out of this Nazareth would change the course of human history? 
   Yes, it was.  And yes, He did.
   Jesus preached His first sermon in Nazareth, his hometown; for it was there, in Nazareth, that the sparkle of the light of Christ began to shine in the world, and that light of Christ has been shining for two thousand years, and is still shining in places like Nazareth all over the world where people are living with the heels of oppressive governments and pagan religions pressing against their necks, rubbing their faces in the sand, holding them in bondage and slavery to excessive taxes, low wages, stagnant and stinky environments, packed in houses like rats, with no place to run and no place to hide, inflicted with sickness and disease and starvation, with no hope of ever having a better day, or a good night's sleep with a soft pillow beneath their heads, for Caesar does not care if they live, or if they die! 
   Even now, the whole world has all the earmarks of a Roman internment camp, rising globally, fencing us in, and locking the gates.
   But what about the Nazareth of our own hometowns, the Nazareth of our own communities and villages, the Nazareth of the streets where we live, and the Nazareth that exists within our own families and among our own kin?
   Jesus was not popular in Nazareth.  But He preached there anyway.
   Like Christ, we will not be popular.  But we must be able, with His help, to do it anyway and pick up the light of Christ and let it shine, as we remember the sermon Jesus preached in His hometown:
      "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound." (Isaiah 61: 1)
  

DREAMS & VISIONS

   When people lack interest in history through the rearview mirror, they will not likely have an interest in the future through the windshield.  With their hands on the steering wheel and their eyes on the road, they are comfortable in the way they are going.  Don't bother them, don't bug them, just leave them alone.
   Dreams and visions have they none.
   They live in a present state of mind.  They are as they are and they do not think about the way they got to be the way they are.  Their history does not bother them, and their future is of no concern.  They live today, they live today, and they live today.  Today is no more than a continuation of yesterday, and tomorrow will be no more than a continuation of today.
   Dreams and visions have they none.
   Neither do they talk about matters of the heart, preferring instead those things from a storehouse of collections in their minds---things external instead of things internal---even though they do not know the difference.  They are as they are without interference, and their desire is to remain as they are without interference.  Internally, they prefer to protect self:   by keeping others at arm's length, they block others from knowing their hearts, such as how they think or feel, while, at the same time, not desiring to know how others think or feel.  They treat themselves as if they prefer to remain anonymous, leaving others to know no more about them today than they knew about them yesterday, while not desiring to know the hearts of others.  They remain as strangers to others just as others remain as strangers to them.
   Dreams and visions have they none.
   Blinded by pride, they see an image of themselves in their own minds and built by their own imaginations:  a self of their own making, scrubbed and polished, a self they see of themselves, a self they secretly desire will be seen by others, and a self they secretly desire that others should be like them.  Thus they become a graven image of self, filled and fueled by their own ego, convinced and content that they are the epitome of being human.  With their heads mounted on their shoulders and standing above others, they are, of course, correct in everything they do, for they govern themselves with their own laws, rules, and regulations, fully believing that their self-authority is absolute and beyond the boundaries of challenge; for in their own minds they view their self-image as a god, for they have accepted and endorsed a plan of salvation that is not from God, but from a god of their own imaginations, or from the imaginations of others, and heaven is no more than a place in the world of their own minds, which, too, is an imaginary fantasy.
   Dreams and visions have they none.
   Would it be fair to say that people have the power to dress like stained-glass windows?---not wanting others to know us as we really are, but preferring that they see us as we appear to be?  If this is true, then our wardrobes are cloaks of many colors, or uniforms of the day.
   As a Christian, if my dreams and visions are not the same as Christ's dreams and visions, then my dreams and visions will be all about me and not about Christ; and if about me, then I will toot my own horn and blow my own trumpet.  But if I am in Christ and Him in me, then my interest will be in those things that are of interest to Christ, which are above my own interests.
      "What! know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?  For ye are bought with a price:  therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." (1st Corinthians 6: 19-20)
  
  

A NATION WITHOUT BORDERS

   "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:" (1st Peter 2: 9)
   A Jew, Hebrew, or Israelite is a person belonging to the worldwide group claiming descent from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
   Just because a person is born in the land of Israel, however, does not necessarily mean that that person is a Jew, or Hebrew, or Israelite:  for a baby can be born in Israel without having Jewish parents.
  People can also become Israeli citizens, but that does not change them to Jews, Hebrews, or Israelites.
  Thirdly, people can convert to Judaism, but that does not change their bloodline, as if they are Jewish by birth, or children of the bloodline of Abraham:  for people can choose to become members of the Jewish religion, but that does not mean they become Jews.  In fact, people can join Judaism from nations outside of Israel, but that does not change their pedigree to Jewish.
   Abraham was the first Hebrew.  He was not born as a Hebrew, nor did he have Hebrew parents:  for Abraham was chosen of God out of a land of darkness to become the father of a new nation, a nation not characterized by race or skin color, and a nation not made by human hands, but a nation created to be ambassadors of God, and a nation that would be unique among all nations---a one-of-a-kind.
   For God said unto Abraham, "And I will make thy seed as dust of the earth:  so if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered." (Genesis 13: 16) and again, "I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. (Genesis 17: 6)
   Later, God reaffirmed the covenant He made with Abraham by saying unto Moses, "ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people:  for all the earth is mine:  and ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation." (Exodus 19: 5-6)
   Jesus said,
      "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you...."  (John 15: 16)
   Like Abraham, Christians are a chosen people of God, or a new nation of people, unique upon the earth---a one-of-a-kind.
   Just as Abraham was not born a Jew, nor are we born as Christians, but are born again of the Spirit of God because of the love and grace of God in Christ Jesus. (John 3: 3)
   But unlike the Jews that were given the land of Israel, Christians do not have a land that is called the land of the Christians:  for we are a nation without borders:  a nation of pilgrims, living in and passing through this world in which we live, so that this world is not our home:  constantly looking to and pressing forth to reach "a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." (2nd Corinthians 5: 1)
   As a nation without borders, we are a mixed multitude, but not characterized by race, nor by skin color, and we dwell among people in nations of darkness.
   We are "a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people;" called out of darkness because of Christ, "the light of the world".
   Like Abraham, Christians have been called out.
   Like Abraham, Christians have been chosen.
   Like Abraham, Christians are the children of God and no longer children of darkness.
   The Christian Nation, therefore, is a nation of people.
   We are a nation without a country, and a nation without geographical boundaries:  for the Gospel of Christ is not limited to certain people, nor to people of certain nations. 
   We are a nation not limited by race, nor by the color of skin. 
   We are a nation guided by the light of Christ, and not a nation guided by the light of darkness.
   Just as Abraham detached himself from the land of his nativity, we also detach ourselves from the lands of our own nativities as we also detach ourselves from the world system in which we live, for we know that we are pilgrims and simply passing through,
     "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." (Hebrews 12: 2)

CAIN & FALLEN ANGELS

   Satan has the power to pitch his tent in the minds of people without people even knowing that the devil is there!
   Evil is invisible, yet evil always presents itself as something attractive, something alluring, something astonishing, something that is intended to dazzle the minds of people, and something that is built on a grand scale of majesty and beauty that people will believe is both real and true because they can see it with their own eyes!
   Such is the case of Eve in the Garden of Eden, for as she gazed with her eyes on the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, she found it to be attractive, alluring, and astonishing since it was built on a grand scale of majesty and beauty, so it must have been a tree that appeared to be both real and true because she saw it with her own eyes, so that "when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat."  (Genesis 3: 6)
   When we examine the Bible book of Genesis, and believe that the Word of the Lord is truth, this knowledge from God will knock down an image that is built in the minds of people, which is the image of unbelief.
   To begin, let us consider the story of Cain and the story of fallen angels.
   First, Cain is the son of Satan, and Cain was born with all of the personality characteristics of his father, the devil.  Cain was born with an evil mind.  He was born without a conscience.  He had no morality.  No truth existed in the mind of Cain.  Like his father, he was born to lie, to cheat, to steal, to deceive and to conceal, and he was born to kill.  All of these characteristics were natural to Cain, for evil was his natural habitat within the darkness of his own mind, and God was his enemy.
   Secondly, the fallen angels of Genesis chapter 6 were demons, who lost their estate in heaven when they rebelled against God along with Satan.  When these fallen angels fell to earth, "they saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose." (Genesis 6: 2)
   In other words, these fallen angels stole the wives of men and took them as prisoners to do as they pleased.  They had sex with them, impregnated them with their seed, thereby reproducing themselves in a generation of beings that were part human and part demon.  They produced giants, which were terrifying creatures that began to roam the earth, doing as they pleased, for men did not have the power to defend themselves against these beasts of the field with enormous strength.
   When we open the lid of history and look inside, we will see that it was Satan and his demonic legions that brought evil upon the earth and transplanted evil with their seed in the daughters of men as well as influenced evil in the minds of humans, so that they, too, would turn against God.
   Moreover, when we open the lid of religion and look inside, we will see that it was Cain that created the first religion upon the earth, and that it was the children of Cain and his future generations that created religions all over the earth, building shrines and temples for no other purpose under the sun than to be places of worship for Satan, who is their "father god". 
   But is Satan visible in global religions?  Of course not!  For Satan remains invisible.  But the priests of Satan, however, erected images of gods and goddesses as substitutes for Satan to deflect the attention away from him and thereby focusing the eyes of people on gods and goddesses of the universe---of the heavens, of the sea, and of the earth---so that even the earth itself is worshipped as Mother Earth for the children of the devil ever since the days of Cain.
   Consider for a moment that religion is like a tree, much like the tree that Eve saw in the Garden of Eden.  As people fix their eyes upon the tree of religion, they see that the tree appears to be GOOD FOR FOOD, a tree that is PLEASANT TO THE EYES, and a tree that is TO BE DESIRED TO MAKE ONE WISE.  As people eat of the fruit of this tree, they give the fruit to others, who also eat with them.  As parents eat the fruit from this tree, they also give the fruit to their children, who eat with them.  In this way, families can reproduce the seed of religion in future generations because they reproduce the seed of their religion in their own children, which is how families have generational religions because of the reproduction of the seed of religion, which is evil, and which is against God.
   Even today, people all over the world have eaten, as they continue to eat, from the tree of religion, and they gather in temples and shrines for no other purpose than to worship Satan, their "father god".
   Where, then, does evil dwell?
   Evil dwells in the minds of people where Satan has pitched his tent, directing the attention of people to focus on graven images in their own minds:  for the things that people think about will usually be the things that people will do:  whether they be good, or whether they be evil.
   These two stories in the book of Genesis (Cain and fallen angels) are written that we may know that those were the days of the beginning of a great war against people created by God by Satan and his minions.  This war has endured for six thousand years, and it is a war that will not end until Christ returns and puts His foot down.  Therefore we can be sure that all the kings and all the kings' horses will not be able to stop the Gospel of Christ from being preached on the face of the earth.
