SLEEPWALKING IN PARADISE

   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)


   As Christians, we are engaged in a great war.  This war was initiated by Satan, in the Garden of Eden, and this war continues until this day.  This war is a spiritual war, but the evidence is in the physical world in which we live, and the evidence is overwhelming.
   God wants us to be more than flat lines on an EKG.  But how can we be more than flat lines if we do not know that a war is raging? 
   In the United States, we have never had to fight for our churches, and neither have we had to fight for our right to assemble in worship of God on the Lord's Day. 
   In total, we have never had to fight for our faith.  We have never had to struggle.  We have inherited buildings that others built, sit on furniture that others furnished.  We have our comfort designed with thermostatically-controlled heating and air-conditioning, padded pews, carpet floors, and stained-glass windows.  We installed timers on worship so that when the bell rings God's time is up.
   In America, and over the past fifty years, did churches just become too churchy?  Did our interest shift to starched shirts and spiked heels, too much perfume but not enough rouge?  Did church become more about Me instead of He?  Did we become self-absorbed in walking the straight and narrow that we would need breathalyzer tests to stay on a straight line? 
   The United States is now a flat line on an EKG, gasping for its last breath of freedom.  Our nation is dying because our churches are dying.  Our wounds are internal, self-inflicted.  Satan is sniffing at our children while people across America do not even know that the devil is here.  And because we have forgotten the Lord our God, a beast will arise to rule over us. 
   Have you ever participated in a sporting event when people do not show up to compete?  That they are just there on game day to wear the uniform?  They are never in the fight; never in the struggle.  They are just there:  their name on the roster.  For after the game, they just trot along home, and glad that they were seen on a team.
    Is this what happened in churches?  Did church become a social center and a fashion show where people do not arrive to compete?  They are just there on game day to wear the uniform?  Never in the fight; never in the struggle?  They are just there:  their name on the roster?  For after the game, they just trot along home, and glad that they were seen on a team?
   Our nation is in trouble because God's team went to sleep.  We became complacent.  We stopped competing.  We forgot about our enemy.  We are engaged in a great warfare, yet we forgot about our enemy?  Did church became something to do one day of the week?  Have we been sleepwalking in paradise?
   Look at us now.  Look at all the evil across the land. 
   Perhaps we are not too late to turn the ship around.  Our cry for help must come quickly.  And if God's people will pray, perhaps God will hear our SOS.  Help is available, if we desire God.
      If my people, which are called by my name,
         shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face,
            and turn from their wicked ways;
      then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and heal their land.
      (2 Chronicles 7: 14)
     
  
  

KNOW THINE ENEMY

   INTRODUCTION:


      To fully understand an event in the Garden of Eden, stop looking at this story through your own eyes.  Stop looking at it through human wisdom, or with conventional thought, or with previous teachings, or with explanations you have heard in the past.  Instead, clear the debris field of your mind and look with new eyes, with a new perspective, and look for a new experience to understand truth. 
     Satan and demons have the power to transform themselves from the invisible to the visible world in which we live.  This has happened many times and in many places in human history, and modern historians define these creatures as ancient aliens  as well as gods from above.  Their appearance is in a form that is similar to human form.  They had bodies, they walked upright, and they had heads with eyes and ears.  They knew how to communicate with humans.  They could appear to be angelic.  They were friendly; therefore people did not fear them.
     Satan and demons have knowledge that far surpasses human knowledge.  This knowledge is evident in massive stone structures that are located all over the world in the form of pyramids, temples, and shrines.  Even today, master engineers do not understand how the ancients were able to build these complex structures with scientific accuracy.  No wonder the ancients built statues and etchings in stone that are "pictures" of the creatures they witnessed.
    Satan and demons came to earth to defile the human race that was created by Almighty God, for Satan introduced humans to a system of worship that we call RELIGION, for Satan is the god of man's religions all over the world, even to this present day.
    Not only did ancient people worship these ancient aliens, or gods from above, they also worshipped the sun, the moon, the stars, and planets.  They worshipped bodies of water such as rivers and streams, and creeping things that creep upon the earth, such as frogs, rabbits, and also rabbit eggs.  They practiced human sacrifice on altars of fire to the Sun God.  They believed that certain people, such as Nimrod, was a god on earth.  They believed that Nimrod's wife, Semiramus, was the Mother of God and Queen of Heaven.  They believed that Tammuz, born to Nimrod's wife, was a son of god. 
   Out of this system of religion, or Satanic worship, four great religious systems have arisen upon the earth:  in ancient Babylon, ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and ancient Rome. 
    In addition to massive stone structures, religion built elaborate cathedrals and added portraits, paintings, and photographs as images of gods from above, that even these images are worshipped and considered to be holy.
    All of this clearly points to man's obsession with the evil of religion, even today; for Satan's goal has always been that people will worship anything and everything except Almighty God, Creator of heaven and earth.  For religion's goal has always been to dominate and control the world with religion, such as the religion of Babylon, Egypt, Greece, and Rome.  For even today, Rome is the religious capital of the world, for Rome is the center of Satanic worship---disguised as the Roman Catholic Church.  And as we move forward in time, the Catholic Church of Rome will gather all the religions of the world unto itself and become a global empire, known as the New World Order.
    Therefore being evil, religion has no knowledge of God; neither does religion have the love of God.
    All of this clearly tells us also that the men who killed Jesus were men of religion, for Christ is the light of the world, and religion is a world of darkness---an evil that is beyond our own comprehension. For Christ did not come to earth to launch a new religion, but rather to reveal the love of God.  
     He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning.  For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.  (One John 3: 8)


THE GREAT SEDUCTION:
     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 in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.  (Genesis 2: 9)
     The tree of knowledge of good and evil was not an apple tree.  Neither was it any tree of the forest.  This tree was different.  For this tree was the serpent, Satan himself, as Satan transformed himself from the invisible to the visible, as an angelic being, taking on the appearance of an alien, or as a god from above. 
     For Adam and Eve, their minds were astonished and captivated by this tree.  They were mesmerized by his sight and by his words.  They were spellbound, and they could not resist the temptation that stood before them.
     Later, when confronted by God for their indiscretion in the garden, Eve said:  The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. 
     In Hebrew, the word "beguiled" means "seduced".  Eve was seduced by Satan, which means, very plainly, that she had sexual relations with the devil.  Adam then also had sexual relations with Eve.
     Later, Eve gave birth to two boys, or fraternal twins.  Abel was the son of Adam, and Cain was the son of Satan.  Cain arose and murdered Abel, and Eve gave birth to Seth, the son of Adam. 
     This was the beginning of two genealogies in the Bible, which are also the two genealogies of human history:  the genealogy of Satan, through Cain, and the genealogy of Adam, through Seth.
     By accepting the seduction of Eve as truth, this helps to open our minds to the origin of evil that entered this world from Satan; for in Cain the DNA of Satan was transfused, thus reproducing himself in a species of creatures that were not human.  They were dreadful creatures, giants of enormous size and strength, and they were a terror to humans. 
    Thus, the seed of the serpent and the seed of Cain are one, and this strand of DNA goes through the Bible as well as through human history:
    Wherever we find evil, we will find the seed of Cain.
    Wherever we find religion, we will find the seed of Cain because religion is against God.
    Wherever we find homosexuality and pedophilia, we will find the seed of Cain.
   The seed of Cain is also evident in the thirteen bloodlines of the Illuminati.  It is also in other secret societies, such as Freemasonry, Skull & Bones, and Jesuit Priests.  For all of these people are evil people with a secret, evil agenda:  to dominate and to control the world for their master, Lucifer.
    By now, we should be able to see and understand that the New World Order is all about the day when Satan will stand upon the earth and proclaim himself to be God when he enters the rebuilt Jewish temple in Jerusalem. 
   Our future days upon the earth will be dreadful days because the children of Cain are everywhere throughout the world.  They are in governments, and they are in religions.  They are in our nations, cities, communities, and neighborhoods. 
   Satan's arrival is being prepared now by people we can see with our eyes and hear with our ears.  They are highly educated and highly deceptive.  They wear fine suits and priestly garments.  They are men, and they are women, and they are sexually seductive, just like their father, Satan, in the Garden of Eden.
    And at the end of days, Christ will return to defeat the devil. 
    Our only hope, therefore, is to believe in Christ, and without Him, there is no hope.
        Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11: 1)
    
    
    
    
     

SEEKERS OF TRUTH

   All of the verses of the Bible fit together as one, cohesive unit.  One in all, and all in one.  To believe in one is to believe in all; to disbelieve in one is to disbelieve in all.
   To believe that God created Jesus in the womb of a woman is to also believe that God created the world; for God, and Christ, are one.
   For if we do not believe that God created the world, neither will we believe that God created humans.
   Creation is therefore the evidence of God's creative power; and the resurrection of Christ is the evidence of God's re-creative power in His death.  For if believe that God raised up Jesus from death, we will also believe that God will raise us up from death if our faith is in Christ. 
   Believe in the Bible and God will give you more knowledge of Him.
   There is much that we can understand in the Bible, yet there is much that we do not understand; for all of the latter, bring your questions to God and He will direct your path to answers.
      But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.  (Matthew 6: 33)
      Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.  (Proverbs 3: 5-6)
   God and the Bible fit together as one, cohesive unit.  To believe in God is to believe in the Bible; and to believe in the Bible is to believe in God:  for God and the Bible are inseparable. 
   If you are a seeker of truth, come to God and your search will be over; ignore God, and your search will never end.  For God is truth, and outside of Him, there is no truth.
   God is the sum total of things past, things present, and things future.

REAL PEOPLE

   Did I ever tell you the story about the day somebody stole my new pair of shoes?
   Or the day somebody stole my new baseball glove?
   Or the day somebody stole my Bible?
   These are real stories about real events in my life. 
   Here in the United States, I believe the minds of millions of Americans have been conditioned by fantasies and make-believe for so long that their lives have become fantasies and make-believe:  where nothing is real, nothing to get upset about, nothing to stand up for or stand against, and nothing to speak up for or speak up against.  Just push another button on the jukebox, turn the channel, turn the page, and get in line to see the wizard behind the curtain just like everybody else.
   Not only is this true in the United States, but it is also true in nations all over the world.
   How many times do we sit down to chat with people, then they leave before the coffee's cold?
   When was the last time you met a real person?  When was the last time you met a person who honestly cares about you?  A person who would listen to your heartaches and heartbreaks, your times of pain and agony, or even your time of gladness or a great victory?
   How many times have you met a person who is looking for someone to talk to?  Someone who will listen to his heartaches and heartbreaks, his time of pain and agony, or his time of gladness and a great victory?
   How many people really care about your goals and dreams? 
   How many people really care about your new pair of shoes, your new baseball glove, or your Bible?
   What really matters most to people all over the world?
   What matters most to many people may not be the things they do or talk about, but rather the things they avoid:  the things they hide and the things they want to remain secret.  From such turn away, or else you will become like them.  Instead of building you up, they will drag you down with them.
   If you can find a real person today, you have found a real friend.  Do not take this for granted.  A friend is a treasure, a diamond in the rough. 
      Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.  (Proverbs 27: 17)
  

SATAN'S DNA

    For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.  And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.     (Second Corinthians 11: 13-14)
   Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. (Genesis 3: 1)
   Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.  (Matthew 7: 15)
   Even so every good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.  (Matthew 7: 18)
   And upon her head was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.  (Revelation 17: 5)
   There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men of old, men of renown.  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: 5-6)


   Throughout the Bible, we can see the evidence of Satan's DNA in the lives of many people. 
   From the garden of Eden until the end of time, Satan's DNA is scattered throughout the world in the lives of many people. 
   Wherever we see evil, Satan's DNA is there. 
   Satan's DNA abides in darkness. 
   When people prefer darkness instead of light, Satan's DNA is there. 
   When people come out at night to play, Satan's DNA is there. 
   When people hide behind a wall of secrecy, Satan's DNA is there.
   When people join secret societies, gather in darkness and hatch plans in secrecy, Satan's DNA is there. 
   When people commit crimes against children, while hiding behind the shroud of religion, Satan's DNA is there.
   When nations crumble from within because of internal corruption, Satan's DNA is there.
   Have you ever wondered why Cain is not listed as a son of Adam in Bible genealogies?
   In the Bible, have you ever studied the seed of the serpent?
   Have you ever wondered why Jesus said, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? (John 6: 70)
   Even on the day when Christ was crucified in Jerusalem, the Lord said to His captors early that morning:  this is your hour, and the power of darkness. (Luke 22:53)
   If people will study the event in the garden of Eden, and simply believe, then and only then will they see and understand the truth about Satan's DNA.

HEAD KNOWLEDGE

  Religion is the greatest method of mind control that man has ever invented and therefore religion is a controlled environment. 
   As such, religion is the place where people lose their individual identity, where they no longer think for themselves, think outside the box, think outside the lines, or make individual decisions; for their decisions are made for them.
   By submitting their minds to religion, people submit their will, their lives, and also their children.
   Religion is a group thing, where every person is treated and trained the same way according to the same script. 
   Religion is the same as prescription medication for the mind, and people return---on time and on cue---for their regularly scheduled treatment plan as prescribed by their spiritual doctors.
  As obedient puppies or lab rats, they arise and return for their feeding when they hear the bell.
   In religion, the menu never changes:  as it is when they are toddlers, so will it be when they are old.
   The menu is simple, elementary, and designed to keep the minds of people as the minds of toddlers all the days of their lives.  Which is why the elderly know no more about their religion when they are old than they knew when they were children: for religion wants its people to remain as obedient children, where they will just open their mouths and say ahhh, then move to their seats before being dismissed---on time and on cue.
  Religion is the place where people gather to die:  while believing they will be rewarded for their obedience to their religion. 
  These things I often write about religion I know are true.  For there was a time in my life when I had one of the finest religious minds a person could have!
  To begin, I have always believed in the Bible, even from my early childhood.  I went to church every Sunday, I learned to memorize Bible verses, and later in life I wrote stories about Bible stories.  All of this, however, was only head knowledge.  As such, my belief had become my religion.
   In 1995, something strange happened.  The Holy Spirit of God came to see me and He told me that I had never confessed to God that I am a sinner, and, that I had never invited Christ to come into my life to save me from my sin.  Upon hearing these words, I knew in a heartbeat that I was a sinner and separated from God.  But when I bowed on my knees, confessed to God that I am a sinner and invited Christ to save me from my sin, another strange thing happened:  I experienced a peace that I had never known!  That was also the day when I lost my religion.
   Religion is also head knowledge, but the knowledge of religion is not the same as the knowledge of God:  for religion is like a tomb where dead people gather to wait to die, which is the same as the place for the walking dead.
   Dead? 
   The Bible explains the dead this way:
         But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: (Ephesians 2: 4-6)
  

IF YOU WERE GOD

   For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  (Romans 8: 38-39)


   Perhaps it is difficult for people to understand and believe that God is love, especially when we see so much evil in this world:  so much death and violence, bloodshed, disease, starvation, wars and rumors of wars, difficulties, disagreements, destruction, unemployment, and for the total lack of peace on earth.
  Where is God, we may say, in the midst of the storms of life?  Or, why would a loving God allow so many innocent children to die? 
   It is easy for us to blame God for everything that goes wrong, and it is also easy for us to give ourselves the credit when things go well. 
   For the record, however, we can know that when God looks at people, He sees people.  The Lord does not look at us as a statistic.  The Lord does not see us with black skin, white skin, or brown skin.  Neither does He see us as American, or Russian, or German, or any other nationality.  The Lord does not favor us according to our family position, nor by the amount of money we have in our pockets. 
   The problems we face in this world were not created by God, for God created us with a brain that is superior to the brains of animals.  He created us to live and act as humans, not like animals, wild and untamed.
   The problems we face in this world have been created by people who have chosen to live and act like animals, and, today, many people treat animals better than they treat humans.
   If you were God, what would you think about people bowing to rocks, sculptors, paintings, portraits, and photographs?  Do animals do that?
   If you were God, what would you think about people believing that certain people are gods on earth?  Do animals do that?
   If you were God, what would you think about people worshiping the sun, moon, stars, and planets as if they have life and are gods of the universe?  Do animals do that?
   If you were God, what would you think about people who sacrifice humans on altars of make-believe gods?  Do animals do that?
   If you were God, what would you think about the leaders of governments and religions who order mass executions of people because they are considered to be infidels and worthy of death?
   If you were God, what would you think about people praying to the souls of dead people, as if they are alive and can answer prayers, while never once praying to you?
   If you were God, what would you think about the pedophiles who hide behind the cloak of religion and the marble palaces of kings and kingdoms?
   If you were God, what would you think about people who ignore you all the days of their lives, yet when they die, they expect to waltz into your heaven, footloose and fancy free, while expecting to receive rewards for their good behavior---while they never once loved their neighbors, or never once spoke a word on your behalf?
   Are we not better than the animals?
   God loves us, and God also desires that we will love Him.
   In order to love God, however, we must come to know God, for God has demonstrated His love toward us in His only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.  And when we desire Christ, the Lord will meet us, one on one and face to face.  All that is required of us is a step of faith.  Let go of the things that hold us back.  Let go of misconceptions and the opinions of others. And, yes, let go of religion: for it is Christ who died for sin, not religion; as it is also Christ who forgives sin, and not men of religion. 
      But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.  (Hebrews 2: 9)
