"Young Earth" (6,000 years) proponents
unwittingly damaging Christianity's credibility
A new reader writes:
By chance I stumbled upon your web site
where you speak quite extensively about three different
earth ages [When
was The beginning?]. I followed your Bible
verses and along with the explanations you gave in effort to
establish a link with the word of God with the foolishness
of man's extrapolations of the age of this earth being
billions of years old.
You ignore the fact that the dating
methods used by man to date the age of earth are dependant
on a set of assumptions that rarely give the same date
twice. There are so many problems with the methods these
so-called scientists use to date the age of anything in
God's universe they cannot be trusted.
A much bigger problem with this multi
earth age theory is additions must be made to God's
word along with creative interpretations of translations of
words.
Instead of trying to second guess God why
not simply trust what his word and his word alone says. For
example. So-called scientists seem to have a problem with
the distance to stars and time. They ignore the fact
that God wanted light from these far away stars to be here
instantly upon creation and foolishly determine that
creation could not have been in six literal days because
light would have taken billions of years to arrive at the
earth had it traveled that far. Obviously, God created the
stars with light already at the earth so that we could see
his wonderful creation without having to wait those billions
of years.
How can we say we love him if we do not
trust his word?
I will pray for you to have faith. For
by faith are we saved. And that not of ourselves. It is a
gift of God, least any man should boast.
Answer:
Hello [Xxxxxx]. You said:
"How can we say we love him
if we do not trust his word?"
Well, that sounds so nice;
however, what you're really saying is: "How can we say we love him
if we do not trust [Xxxxxx's interpretation of His] word?"
At the risk of sounding
self-absorbed, I dare say that none trusts God's Word more than I.
I do trust that the Holy Bible is the literal written Word of
God and that God Himself preserved the faithfulness of those words.
I could turn your argument around
on you and ask you why you do not believe God's Word
about the three Earth ages?
Surely you have read our study,
When was The
beginning?; therefore, for the life of me I cannot
understand how a Bible-believing Christian can doubt that there are
three Earth ages in God's plan.
What is it about you "Ken Ham," "Answers
In Genesis" people? Ken Ham and his arguments are ridiculous.
(And they actually teach a form of Evolution!!!) Please don't
attribute to God the goofy explanations of Mr. Ham. Or Ham's silly
"Creation Museum" that shows life-size plaster exhibits of
Adam and Eve and their pet baby dinosaur. Is it any wonder that
unbelievers are resistant to Christianity with people like Kenneth
Ham leading the way! Ham and his ministry is a Trojan Horse to
destroy Biblical Christianity, all the while mumbling their motto:
"Believing God's Word from the very first verse of Genesis," or
something along that line.
I know that "Young
Earth" proponents, as you are called, have a huge problem with the
word "day" ("And the evening and the morning
were the first day"
— Gen 1:5, etc.) meaning a longer period of time than 24
hours, but you have no problem with God's below use of
the word "day" meaning a longer period of time than from sunrise to
sunrise.
Genesis
2:16-17
16 And the Lord God commanded the man
[Adam], saying, Of every tree of
the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt
not eat of it: for in the
day
that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. KJV
Both words "day" from Gen 1:5
and 2:17 above are the same Hebrew word, yowm. And
notice below from its definition that it often means more than a 24
hour day:
day: Hebrew
word #3117 yowm (yome); from an unused root meaning
to be hot; a day (as the warm hours), whether literal
(from sunrise to sunset, or from one sunset to the next), or
figurative (a space of time defined by
an associated term), [often used adverb]: KJV - age,
always, chronicals, continually (-ance), daily, ([birth-], each,
to) day, (now a, two) days (agone), elder, end, evening, (for)
ever (-lasting, -more), full, life, as (so) long as (... live),
(even) now, old, outlived, perpetually, presently, remaineth,
required, season, since, space, then, (process of) time,
as at other times, in trouble, weather, (as) when, (a, the,
within a) while (that), whole (+age), (full) year (-ly),
younger. (Biblesoft's New Exhaustive
Strong's Numbers and Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew
Dictionary. Copyright © 1994, 2003, 2006 Biblesoft, Inc. and
International Bible Translators, Inc.)
And surely you
know that Adam did not die 24 hours after partaking of that which
God had forbidden in Gen 2:17 above. So you must admit that a
"day" in the Bible is not necessarily 24 hours. Unless,
of course, it conflicts with your preconceived or falsely
taught notions on any certain Bible fact. Talk about
inconsistency on your side's part! And by the way, in the
creation narrative of Genesis chapter one we see the creation "days"
listed; however, there was no sun until the forth day—ergo, no "day"
as we understand days today. In the New Testament in 2nd
Peter 3:8 God gives a key clue that the "Young Earthers" seem to
willingly ignore: "one
day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as
one day."
You've read of "the
DAY of the Lord" in your Bible; it is not 24 hours, it is the
thousand years spoken of in Revelation chapter twenty which begins
at the Second Advent of the Lord Jesus Christ in Rev 19:11.
References to "the day of the Lord"
in the Bible:
Old Testament:
Isaiah 2:12, Isaiah 13:6, Isaiah 13:9, Isaiah 34:8, Jeremiah
46:10, Lamentations 2:22, Ezekiel 13:5, Ezekiel 30:3, Joel 1:15,
Joel 2:1, Joel 2:11, Joel 2:31, Joel 3:14, Amos 5:18, 5:20
Obadiah 1:15, Zephaniah 1:7, Zephaniah 1:8, Zephaniah 1:14,
Zephaniah 1:18, Zephaniah 2:2, Zephaniah 2:3, Zechariah 14:1,
Malachi 4:5; New Testament:
Acts 2:20, 1 Corinthians 5:5, 2nd Corinthians 1:14, 1st
Thessalonians 5:2 2 Peter 3:10.
And I don't need Carbon-14,
Potassium-Argon, etc, testing to know that this Earth is
older than six thousand years—I can just look at cuts in hills and
sides of mountains that reveal uncountable numbers of sedimentary
layers laid down over God-knows-how-long. Or at rivers eroded
miles deep in solid rock (Mr. Ham says that the river in the Grand
Canyon [which is a mile
deep!] was carved out in less than one year from the runoff water
of Noah's Flood! And then presumably stopped carving for the last
6000 years? Or "went back" to the normal rate of water erosion on
rock???). I could go on.... Instead of relying on these
mental gymnastics, how much easier is it to just accept that while
this earth—the actual planetary globe—is very very old, man hasn't
been here for all that long (±14,000 years), just as God's Bible
declares?
According to
Biblical information this Earth age (not the earth itself) is
±14,000 years old (8,000 years from Gen 1:2b
to Adam, and 6,000 years from Adam to today; ergo, approximately
14,000 years, give or take, from the beginning of this earth age
till today). However, also note that there is
the possibility that these numbers much be increased, as we are
not told how many years (God's days) transpired between God's
seventh day of rest and the forming of Adam in Gen 2:7—we just
presume that it was on the next day, the "eighth" day, (1000
years) after the seventh 1,000-year day, but we have no definite
support for that supposition. In other words, it is entirely
possible that many years transpired between God's (seventh) day of
rest and the forming of Adam; for, it never says "on the
eighth day...," it only says that after God saw that there
was no man to till the ground (no farmer) He formed Adam (the
earlier "6th day" men were gatherers). But the first seven
creation days can be reliably reckoned as 7,000 human years (unless
there is time between Gen 1:2b and 1:3, but
there probably isn't). And all other races were created in
God's image (the human form as opposed to an animal) during the sixth day creation of Genesis chapter one,
some 6,000 years after Gen 1:2b (Adam was
formed in chapter two). See our,
Mankind; two
separate creation events. To put this into a
graphic for better clarity we could state this as either one of
the two below models:

Nevertheless, even if we take the modern dating methods as
basically accurate, there is not all that much discrepancy between
science's age of the oldest HUMAN remains and the Bible's.
Now, I am speaking of HUMAN remains, not the remains of extinct
species of apes that the Darwinists say are
"evolutionary ancestors" of humans, such as "Lucy,"
remains pictured at right, the 3½ foot tall 25-year-old ape
(species Australopithecus afarensis) dated at 3.25 million
years old. One of the oldest HUMAN
remains is the "Kennewick
Man" dated somewhere between 5650 and 9510 years old, or from
approximately 7500 B.C—3600
B.C. (Adam was formed
in 4004 B.C., the rest
of the races created at least two thousand years before
Adam).
Now, since you have presumably
read the
When was The
beginning? study of ours I will just post one
Scripture without explanation, or without as you claim, "creative
interpretations of translations of words". Read it with a clear
mind and tell me that you really can't see three Earth ages in it:
2 Peter
3:5-13
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of,
that by the word of God the heavens were
of old, and the
earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world
that then was,
being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth,
which are now,
by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against
the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that
one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and
a thousand years as one day.
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men
count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing
that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in
the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and
the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and
the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what
manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and
godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God,
wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the
elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13
Nevertheless we [Christians],
according to his promise, look for
new heavens and a
new earth,
wherein dwelleth righteousness. KJV
And if you can't see three
separate Earth (and Heaven) ages in the above Scripture, then don't
worry, it isn't a salvation matter. You don't have to understand
the creation of the world to get into Heaven. Just blissfully sleep
on, but don't accuse those who do understand God's Word of
"unbelief." Your willing ignorance (vs. 5 above) is your
prison, not mine.
How much better an evangelical
tool would it be to present the world with an intelligent
Christian? Now get busy studying God's Word, not Ken Ham's and the
"Young Earther's" misinterpretation of it. You're embarrassing us
and bringing discredit upon the faith. And yes, as always, I
lay the lion's share of the blame at the feet of today's many (not
all preachers) useless Biblically-illiterate "career" preachers, who
are paid to learn and know the Bible—that's their job—but quite
obviously don't know diddley about it. The result is that
the average Christian in the pew is equally ignorant; and being
thus, is ripe for deception. True were Christ's words: "And
he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall
they not both fall into the ditch?" (Luke 6:39 ).
PS: You may
benefit greatly from the three below studies, in the below order of
reading; for many "Bible problems" are removed by a true
understanding of God's Word. I dare say that if you understand
what is in the three below Bible studies you will know more than
over 95% of Christians world-wide.
-
When was
The beginning?
-
Mankind;
two separate creation events
-
What was
the Real sin in the garden of Eden?
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

A primer on the "Jews" and today's nation "Israel"
A (new) reader writes:
Good morning to you sir,
I am astonished with the wisdom and the passion that God has
bestowed on you and this website you have created. It is the most
insightful and scripturally founded collection of studies and facts
that I have found thus far. One thing puzzles me though. After
researching several of your studies, I have found it to be quite
clear that you are not a supporter of Zionism (or the preservation
of an Israeli state for the Jewish people). However, scripture does
state that God has predestined his people to inherit their own
state, an undivided state. How can one argue with that? He also
declares that the enemies that invade Jersualem will be destroyed
by His own hand. Why are you instructing us Christians to have such
disdain for the Jewish people and the state of Israel when God
himself has declared that despite their blasphemy and idol worship,
he will save them and wipe out all of their enemies, so much so that
there will be mountains of corpses?
Continued blessings to you sir and to your efforts to spread the
truth,
[Xxxxx]
Answer:
Hello [Xxxxxxx]. Thank you for the kind words. It
would not be condescending of me to state that it will take a fair
amount of material to answer fully your concerns. We have it all on the
website, spread over many different studies. But the short answer is
thus, summed-up in short summary:
The so-called, self-styled "Jews" of today
are not in any way the physical decedents of the "Jews" of
the Bible. By "Jews" of the Bible I mean the descendents of Abraham,
Isaac, and Jacob/Israel. (Understand that the term "Jew" has been
usurped and misunderstood.) In fact, oddly enough, over 95% of
so-called Jews today are not even a Semitic people (and the Palestinians
ARE a Semitic people, through their father Abraham). The term and
designator Semite comes from Shemite, or the sons of Shem. Shem
was one of Noah's three sons, and all of those in his line are
classified as Semites. However, the so-called Jews of today, 95%
of them anyway, known as the Ashkenazi Jews or Eastern European Jews,
are direct descendents of the Khazars, a Turko-Mongoloid people that
inhabited what is now South-Western Russian, between and slightly North
of the Black and the Caspian seas. (The Caspian Sea was once known
as the Khazar Sea when the "Jews" were there, and such name can
found on old maps before the modern "Jews" hid it to hide their
ancestors the Khazar people from historical light.) These Khazars
(called Ashkenazi Jews today) are blood-related to Attila the Hun and
Genghis Khan and never had a relative that set foot in the Holy Land
until the Rothschild takeover beginning in the early 1940s on to the
establishment of the false born-in-bloodshed Israel State on May 14, 1948.
So they are not God's people by blood. Certainly
not by religion, for Christianity is the fulfillment of the Old
Testament (Old Covenant/Old Contract) religion of Israel
delivered by God's faithful servant Moses.
So what happened to God's
real people Israel? They
migrated North over the Caucasus mountains whence they gained the name
Caucasian and migrated as prophesied West and North of Palestine,
settling in Europe and eventually sailing West to and establishing the
Americas. That is to say that the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob, the sons of those whom were led out of Egyptian bondage by the
hand of the Lord God, those same that then received the Law of God at
the mouth of Moses, the ones to whom all the promises of God were
delivered were/are the people that are today called the Anglo-Saxon,
Germanic, Scandinavian and kindred peoples, or over-simplified—White
people. But there has been treachery committed, evil people have
usurped Israel's identity and falsely taken their place in history and
the modern world. The perennial enemies of Israel are today calling
themselves Israel (Jews actually)! If God's people Israel
are called "White people" it is considered racist, but if they are
reckoned as "Jews" then no one seems to mind. For instance, if a
rabbi on TV calls "Jews," God's people, it is accepted by all; but if a
Caucasian on TV says that they are God's people, then they are called
"White Supremacists," 'bigots," racists," "neo-Nazis," or whatever libel
of the day which is being used to suppress true Israel. This is
treachery. And it has purpose—to suppress true Israel—and it is
practiced by false Israel ("Jews") and the unwitting non-Jews who
are given over to their domination in academia, media, and social
engineering.
This (Anglo-Saxon as true Israel) is known
as British Israelism, or in a disparaging way: Christian
Identity. (Christian Identity is not in itself a pejorative, but
crypto-Jews which have infiltrated/created "racist White hate groups"
have turned it into an ugly racism—thus hoping to accomplish the great
feat of getting learned men such as yourself to reject the truth and to
welcome with open arms as "God's Chosen People" satan's infiltrators).
The "Jews" of today, those phonies (though they
largely are unaware that they are a lie), have made it out that true
Israel (Anglo-Saxons) are the fakes and that the fakes (so-called Jews
today) are the real true Israel. This is all Biblical in nature, a
battle begun between Cain and Able, and continued on through Jacob and
Esau, till today, as you can plainly see.
Therefore, say, I as a German/Irish person, could
not utter AntiSemitic remarks without insulting myself; for the German
and Irish (and English, pure Spaniard, French, early Russian, etc.
peoples) are the descendents of true
Israel—they are all brothers—though true to form, the "Jews" have made
them fight each other in two World Wars and hundreds of other lesser
battles. This is Fratricide, the killing of brother on brother. Bear in
mind, though, that much infiltration by the fake "Jews" has occurred,
specially in France and Russia and the English nobility, et al. Wherever
true Israel went, the false ones have followed to destroy; just like the
Kenites (sons of Cain) followed and infiltrated true Israel (1st
Chronicles 2:55 for example). What we call "AntiSemitism" today is
just a front on this intellectual war.
The Bible prophesies that these false Jews shall
play a prominent role in oppressing/attacking God's true Israel people
in the Tribulation of the endtimes (soon coming to fruition):
(May I point out that in the below two Scriptures the
speaker is Jesus Christ Himself?)
Revelation 2:8-11
8 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things
saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive
[Jesus Christ];
9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art
rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which
say they are Jews,
and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the
devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and
ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and
I will give thee a crown of life.
11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
KJV
Revelation 3:7-13
7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things
saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of
David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no
man openeth [Jesus Christ];
8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and
no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept
my word, and hast not denied my name.
9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan,
which say they are Jews,
and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come
and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep
thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the
world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no
man take thy crown.
12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God,
and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of
my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem,
which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon
him my new name.
13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches. KJV
After reading the above you should
never again have to ask yourself why the "Jews" so hate the New
Testament—it testifies against them! When a member of the
religion of Judaism reads the New Testament he is reading of his own
sentence from God, his/her destruction in the Lake of Fire.
So God's promises and His written Word are true,
Israel is alive and well and shall fulfill her prophecies; but as also
prophesied they shall lose knowledge of their identity for a time. This
is where we are at today. (See for instance: Isa. 42:16-19; Hos.
1:9, 10; 2:6; Rom. 11:25.)
Let me add that ancestry and
race has nothing to do with
salvation. Whether one is "Jew" or "Gentile" has no
bearing on salvation; for, Jesus Christ opened up salvation to the "Gentiles;"
to all humans better stated. But only through faith in Him,
Jesus Christ! Even a so-called "Jew" of today can be
saved by submitting to Jesus Christ. Though few seem inclined to so
do.
in your E-mail you referenced several prophesy
snippets regarding the restoration of Israel, and they shall come to
pass; for God's prophecies cannot fail, save for those that were
conditional and whose conditions were broken by
man. The problem is that we must rightly divide
(2nd Tim 2:15), we
must identify the subject and the object, and we must identify the
peoples who are being spoken of at the moment. Then we can see God's
words and His Word flow out in perfection, no prophesy lost, no
Scripture confounded. But those enemies that I spoke of, they are to
this very day confusing God's written Word, lying incessantly, and
generally making a mess out of God's good world and His children all men
of Christ. They shall perish at the last as recorded. Until then the
battle is with words and knowledge and wisdom, which is capsulated in
information. That is what we are trying to do at WBSG (Watchmen
Bible Study Group), disseminate information.
You have a lot to learn, now go out and learn it,
it is there, the truth is there; you simply have to know where to
look for it. It is "hidden" in plain sight in your good 'ole King
James Bible. Now you know why the world doesn't want you to
believe God's Bible. The Bible says that the world shall perish,
and the world loves its own.
One more word on the modern day so-called nation
state of Israel. The nation that we today call "Israel" is no
fulfillment of any good prophecy (in fact, it is the future seat of the
beast, the seat of satan/antichrist). The true Israel of the
prophesies was only to be reformulated under the King of Israel, under
the Messiah. Well, there is no Messiah in "Israel" today. (There are
in fact many strict "Jews" who reject the Zionist State of Israel for
this very reason, and the fact that over 50% of so-called Jews today are
self-admitted Atheists (calling themselves "secular Jews"]). But when
God sent The Messiah, the false "Jews" had Him murdered. And till this
day they are actively engaged in destroying His true people Israel and
His ONLY acceptable religion, Christianity. Such is the great
controversy, the great struggle, Jacob's Trouble writ large. And you
haven't seen anything yet! In the Tribulation (Revelation chapter six
forward) these false Jews, by the evil power of satan, shall actively
attempt to force both Israel and all Christians generally and the whole
world to worship the Talmudic god
of the "Jews," the antichrist/satan:
Revelation 13:3-8
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his
deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the
beast.
4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the
beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like
unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and
blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two
months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his
name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to
overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and
tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him,
whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain
from the foundation of the world. KJV
Hope that wasn't too much too quick. But you
asked, and you ought to have an answer. Did not our Lord even
command us so by Scripture?
2 Timothy 4:1-5
4 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who
shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove,
rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine;
but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers,
having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be
turned unto fables.
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of
an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. KJV
And there isn't a word which I
have written today that can't document. And on our website it is all
drawn out over several studies in an in-depth fashion with substantial
documentation. It should likely take a ready mind several months to
settle this all in their understanding with documentation ascertained.
Sadly, you will not learn these truths in your church, the endtime
Christian churches and their clergy have all for the most part been
compromised—as prophesied, I might add.
Every sentence in God's Bible is true, and that
truth is found only in the "King James" "version" of the Bible. But
that is an altogether another study (see our:
Adulterations in the
Newer Bible Versions (NIV, NASB...); Proof that the King James Bible
(KJV) is the True Word of God). And how can one believe God
if they do not believe His written Word? That is why all the leading
"scholarship" AGAINST the validity of the Bible is carried out and/or
financed by apostate "Jews." This also is another study for another
time. But should it be considered a remarkable thing that those who
killed His Son, and hunted and persecuted His early Christian church,
would also seek to destroy God's written Word? No, it is not at all
remarkable; rather it is quite predictable.
May God bless your studies and protect from the
poison of some who go too far, the so-called AntiSemites; for they take some truth
and mix it with lie and confuse the heck out of everyone. By design, of
course. Those who know the truth in this matter don't hate "Jews,"
they are wary of them,
and for good cause. Just as we are wary in the woods when we hear
a growl in the bushes.
The battleground is the world, the controversy is
over souls, the combatants are God's people (the Christian) and satan's
people (the "Jews"). That is why little Johnny can't say "God"
in school and why you have "Holiday trees" instead of Christmas Trees
(Oh how the "Jew" hates the mention of Christ!).
And if I have an agenda let it be that I want to
speak the truth regardless of repercussions in popularity
or reputation. I add that I am not infallible, and do not claim
perfection, only claiming sincerity, as God be my witness. You have a
Bible—check me out; search my references, settle it in your own mind so
much so that you could teach it to others yourself. That is
well-pleasing to God and deserving of His Son Jesus Christ, our
Messiah.
And let me, if I may, warn you: in your studies
on these matters you shall undoubtedly encounter many wolves in sheep's
clothing who shall try to lure and deceive you with part-truths
and twisted doctrine—"teachers and preachers" learning just enough
to be dangerous. Prayer to God in Jesus Christ's name shall insure
that you are led away from those false "preachers." But many a good
Christian has "gone off the deep end" by way of false teachings.
God shall recompense the false prophets (false teachers), the ignorant
shall be ashamed but the wicked shall perish.
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

Is abortion a lost battle? Have they won
against life?
A (female) reader writes:
Subject: New on your site......Obama
Nick,
I agree that the Chrisitain church presently and for quite some
time has been just a ghost impression of
Christianity. However, dumping guilt on these christians regarding
voting for obama- the baby killer, is quite extreme on your part and
frankly counter-productive, and heres why;
During the most recent election the main focus of almost ALL
Americans was the economy and the war- to get us out of the monetary
black hole of American offensives around the globe. Just one
election ago, abortion may have been a contender, but at the
present, poeple are scrambling to keep afloat- and basically looking
for a leader who can rise to the challenge (a savior). The World is
crashing in on many, many poeple. So- humans tend to be
self-preservationists it's kind of an innate ability (or disability,
if your prefer to look at that way). So if your family is about to
be homeless and you don't know how you're going to feed your
children, you might not be so concerned about whether or not you
neighbor's daughter is having an abortion-it's just not top priority
anymore. Is it?!
The issues of just 10 years ago are pretty much non-issues at this
point. We are in IT (tribulation) -knee deep and rising at
an accelerated speed. There is NO and I mean NO, NO, NO, chance of
turning back- there will never be national sovernity in the U.S.
again....ever. We are finally in IT.
It was planned- the powers that rule this earth have created it to
be so (and you know it). They have rocked the boat so tumultiously,
that now..... it's capsizing.
I mean look at the choices we were given for president as so
beautifully orchestrated by our enslaving media (and make no mistake
about it-THEY decide who will be the main candidates----of course
always from the 2 main parties).
First we have: McCain: who wanted to continue (for 100 YEARS) with
this God-forsaken war and knew nothing (admitedly) about how to go
about cleaning up the financial mess created by it, and the
preditory lending practices designed by our ever watchful Fed.
OR....... Obama: The media darling "savior" who claimed he would get
us out of Iraq "right away". Yes, it's true that his real
agenda about "change" and "yes we can" was not really talked about
by our mainstream media, You had to search it out
yourself........through other sources. Well most people just arent
interested (or even capable after working 2 jobs to make ends meet)
in taking time away from their immediate life to look into
political matters-NOT EVEN if their LIFE depends on it- MOST
American's are also over-sedated, flouradated, dumb downed drones.
I am constantly shocked when i talk to poeple about current world
issues- and find they know NOTHING about it at all. Like the
genocide that just took place in gaza- i mean NOBODY around me even
mentioned it, and when i brought it up, they didn;t know what i was
talking about. It was apaulling! We give israel about 10 illion us $
a day and they're wiping out the palestinian race no differently
than what they claim germany did to them. they're over there
re-creating another wausaw ghetto with our hard earned $(on the
backs of over worked underpaid brain washed american drones). It'
just SICK. Now that goes without even mentioning, the fed, N.A.T.U.,
the patriot act, et. al. We are SOOOOO in IT it's rediculous! it's
HERE. And there ain't NO turning back!
So- My point is instead of blaming these drones (who happen to be
God's creations).........perhaps you could try de-programing
instead......using love.......most mainstream christians respond to
it. Heck- I don't know maybe they are meant to stay un-aware, maybe
they're better off not knowing they aren't free. I am so tired of policical
agendas I can hardly stand it anymore.
Arnold Murry would always say something to effect "If you fall off
the wagon, pick yourself up, brush yourself off get back on and keep
going. Don't waste time beating yourself up about it....... God will
forgive you he knows what's in your heart" That statement will
always be with me, because that was the 1st time I ever heard
a preacher who didn't just dump guilt & shame, stick his nose up and
ask for money.
If this ship is sinking (as you know,I personally believe it is)
then wouldn't a Christian want to let his brethern know it while at
the same time he is condemning them, still offer a life preserver.?!
Love is a life preserver.
As ugly as these evil-doing intra-nationalists are, the poeple who
follow un-knowingly are innocent until proven guilty..............Ony
GOD can make that decision.
It would just be really refreshing if someone would come up with a
counter plan against the NWO pretty soon, because the trench is just
getting deeper and deeper. It might be time fo a rEVOLution.
No
response needed, Sorry i dumped on you, God speed, [Xxxxxx]
Answer:
Hi [Xxxxxxxx]. Thank you for your opinion,
you are really quite informed—something sorely lacking in most others
today.
Regarding your reference to abortion
being sort of yesterday's issue: Can you now see how they
numb us? I'm not singling you out, but can't you see that they have numbed
you to the ONGOING murder of over 43 million and counting (in just
America alone since 1973 when abortion was legalized) growing babies? That
is roughly equal to either the entire Black or the entire Latino population
of America today!
Not just numbers, not to God, anyway. We
grow weary for numbers, but to God each and every one is a child of His; a
soul that He sent into this world.
Which do you suppose God is more
concerned about, our portfolios or the slaughter of the innocents?
And please don't overlook Obama's recent
(after I wrote my article) reversal of the federal finance ban on
Embryonic Stem Cell research (as opposed to adult Stem Cell
research which was never restricted). The reason that Christians ought to
be infuriated that their tax dollars are now (thanks to Pres. Obama) being
used to finance Embryonic Stem Cell research is that every time they
"make" an Embryonic Stem Cell they in effect commit an abortion. The
Embryonic Stem Cell is taken from a fertilized embryo. You and I were once
fertilized embryos; so was Barack Obama. In other words, life had begun as
a human egg and a human sperm begin the nine-month process of diving and
dividing and dividing... to form a baby.
"Embryonic stem
cells (ES cells) are stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of an
early stage embryo known as a blastocyst. Human
embryos reach the blastocyst stage 4–5 days post
fertilization, at which time they consist of 50–150 cells...."
- Source.
And I don't consider abortion to be a
nuisance topic. I rather object to the loss of our humanity.
I do, however, understand your
frustration. But just because evil has been legalized and mainstreamed does
not mean that God turns a blind eye to the matter. Suppose they killed 43
million one-minute-old babies; would people be more shocked? Or what really
is the difference between a one-month-old baby and an eight-month-old
"fetus?" Life begins when it starts, not when it transitions from
the womb to the operating room.
America (and the world) has been numbed,
having their consciences seared by the International Judaics, who have
deluded the morals of the educated world. (They are the single most
prominent abortion advocates/enablers.)
Here is how they work their evil:
If, starting today, they publicly
murdered one innocent person a day—people would protest in the streets.
If, in a month, they had increased
the public murders to two innocent people a day—people would still loudly
object.
If, by years end they were publicly
murdering ten innocent people a day—people would still be upset.
If, in ten years they were publicly
murdering a hundred innocent people a day—people would yawn. They would
even vote into office men and women who advocate these murders! They had
become numb to the evil. That is how the International Judaic works at
doing his god, satan's, bidding.
Many otherwise decent Christians in
America are now past the yawning stage and well into voting
abortion-mongers into office. People say that we shouldn't be a "one issue
voter," and that a politician's stance on abortion should be overlooked
because he is Black, a woman, good for finance, strong militarily, etc. I
say to hell with them; what single issue could be important than
baby murder?!? Some object to the use of the term "baby murder," but what
do you call the termination of a growing life? Any way you slice it (or
pretty it up), it is still a murder.
(Note to SC students: Pastor M. is just
plain wrong when he states that murderers cannot be forgiven in this
life. Through Christ all sins can be forgiven, save for one—the
Unforgivable Sin—and that unforgivable sin is not murder. "Wherefore
I [Jesus] say unto
you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven
unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven
unto men." (Mat 12:29. See also Luke 12:10). So Christian
women who have had abortions and the Christian men who financed,
enabled, or encouraged those abortions can be forgiven and washed clean
of that sin through repentance to God in Jesus Christ's name. Yes, a
man can be guilty of the sin of abortion, by consent. [I myself have
been guilty in that fashion in the past, and have repented for my sin;
for now I know that it was indeed a sin before God's eyes. I share
that so that no one will confuse me with a "holier-than-thou" type or a
self-righteous hypocrite].)
And I, for one, while in no way claiming
to have attained moral perfection, strongly object to my tax money financing
these abortions (Embryonic Stem Cell "harvesting," as well as
legalized abortions with State's Aid monies).
Christians could deflect much of the
criticism aimed at them by non-Christians by simply informing them that
it is quite possible to believe in something yet not live up to
it. I say that because Christians are coerced into silence because
they personally have some blot or sin in their character or past; e.g.,
as in the argument that Gay marriage should be allowed because Strait's
screw up their own marriages so much.
Now, I know that it is appealing or
sticky-sweet cool to some people that Pres. Obama is "the first Black
president," but do they really want to share a place in the Lake of
Fire with him? Am I "judging" him? Hardly, I am simply observing all that
God had written in His Bible. And just where do you think that Pres.
Obama is going if he does not repent? God is no respecter of a man's
person. Were should you or I go if we had never repented of our sins?
Life isn't a game, God takes our lives
and our life's decisions very seriously. Thank God that Christians
can be forgiven upon repentance. But when will the "yawn
factor" stop us from even "bothering" to ask for forgiveness anymore? Soon,
I fear. That time is even at the doors, is it not?
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

False "healing ministries" and false
"prosperity ministries"; how to determine
A reader writes:
Subject: Can the false teachers of satan heal the
sick?
Hello. I live in the dominican republic . I speak terrible spanish and
cant read it at all . Been here for 5 years and after starving to read
english ,because nothing was available, I read the bible (total). The
word of GOD is incredible and after 59 years in the catholic church, I
quit. The bible answered so many questions I had for the priests, Son
don’t worry that’s a mystery of GOD! I got baptized in a pentecostal
church and the holy spirit came to me there. I don’t believe in their
talking in tongues, but do believe in the pentacostal tongue(don’t
understand any of their spainish either) Nobody influenced me. I didn’t
even know I had the holy spirit for two weeks. After watching the
daystar station in english for a month. I sent the daystar money .I went
down stairs to send the check with a friend and when I returned the
daystar was off the air and only this boring gentleman called Pastor
Murray was on . Been watching now for 10 months. Talk about the holy
spirit leading. Hallelulah!! About a month ago I typed in 14000 year old
man and found you. You got it ,The holy spirit. You have no idea of how
many genuine miracles that have happened to this ex, sinner( story for
another day)
Question. My wife watches the spainish station enlaces and likes cash
luna. She also likes this guy that calls himself an apostle of GOD .they
both seem to be doing true healings I need some help with this. This guy
is a preacher from the dr and my wifes family has seen the healings.
When you see little children being healed and then talking about it, it
makes one wonder. Do you think this is real or can satan and his hench
demon false prophets heal people? Will they be healing people when the
anti christ is here?
Enjoy your writings and side with you on half you disagree with
P.Murray and him on the other half
[Xxxxx]
Do you have anything in spanish you or Pastor Murray
Answer:
Hello [Xxxxxxx]. Welcome. And sorry
but we have nothing in Spanish. You asked:
"Do you think this is real or can
satan and his hench demon false prophets heal people? Will they be
healing people when the anti christ is here?"
There are many false preachers that do
false healings. In America we have Benny Hinn, who is as fake as
it gets. Many times certain "healing ministries" have been exposed for
planting fake sick people in the audience who are then called up to the
stage to be "healed." Or they will have agents sitting in the crowd and
mingling with the people in the entrance before the meeting. These agents
would ask strangers questions about their healing need. Then they would
transfer this information to the preacher on stage via two-way radios or
whatnot. Then the preacher calls out the sick person and tells them all
that is wrong with them. The sick person is amazed because he has never
spoken to this preacher, yet the preacher knew private things. Many times
the genuinely sick person is caught up in the moment and thinks that their
cancer is gone or the pain is gone—but it really isn't, they feel it the
next day. But the services are over by then and nobody hears the follow-up
report.
Nevertheless, we must never discount the
fact that should God choose to do so, He could heal that person even though
the meeting and the preacher is fake, simply because of the great faith of
the Christian seeking the healing. All healings are based upon the faith of
the Christian. In other words, we can all be healed if we have that great
degree of faith. Jesus basically said as much when He stated:
Matthew 17:14-21
14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain
man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for
ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure
him.
17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse
generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you?
bring him hither to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the
child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could
not we cast him out?
20 And
Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say
unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall
say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall
remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
KJV
And FAITH is one of the Spiritual Gifts,
so while a Christian may have "faith enough" (for lack of a more dignified
term) to be saved they may not have that great gift of faith than would
cause God to bless them with a healing. If I were sick I would first pray
for all faith, for great faith, then later I would pray for a
healing.
Faith is one of the Spiritual gifts:
1 Corinthians
12:4-12
4 Now there are diversities of gifts,
but the same Spirit [the
Holy Spirit].
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same
Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which
worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit
withal.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the
word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith
by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same
Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another
discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another
the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit,
dividing to every man severally as he will.
12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of
that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. KJV
Many Christians may be offended to hear
that there is a greater degree of faith than they possess. However, even
the Apostles, those who walked with Christ, witnessed with their own eyes
His miracles, even they asked Jesus to increase their faith:
Luke 17:5-6
5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye
might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and
be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you. KJV
Below is another instance of a man asking
Jesus to increase his faith, and this man's son was then healed of the evil
spirit that was possessing him:
Mark 9:23-24
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things
are possible to him that believeth.
24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with
tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
KJV
So there is no shame in asking God to
increase your faith.
Now to your main question. Yes,
satan/antichrist shall have power to perform miracles. This much we are
told in the book of Revelation:
Revelation 13:11-14
11 And I beheld another beast
[satan/antichrist] coming up out of the earth; and he had two
horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and
causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first
beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that
he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the
means of those miracles
which he had power to do
in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that
they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword,
and did live. KJV
This is no new thing. In fact, in the
Old Testament, Pharaoh's magicians had the power to mimic God's miracles.
But theirs were not any match for God's. Theirs were evil through occultism
(Satanism) and they perished away:
Exodus 7:8-13
8 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle
for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it
before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.
10 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the Lord
had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and
before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers:
now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with
their enchantments.
12 For they cast down every man his rod,
and they became serpents:
but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as
the Lord had said. KJV
And as satan has certain powers and
attributes so too do his false preachers:
2 Corinthians
11:13-15
13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed
[disguised - Grk word #3345] into
an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed
[disguised] as the ministers of
righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. KJV
transformed: Greek word #3345 metaschematizo
(met-askh-ay-mat-id'-zo); from NT:3326 and a derivative of NT:4976;
to transfigure or disguise; figuratively, to
apply (by accommodation): KJV - transfer, transform (self).
(Biblesoft's New Exhaustive Strong's Numbers and
Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew Dictionary. Copyright © 1994,
2003, 2006 Biblesoft, Inc. and International Bible Translators,
Inc.)
But are satan and his evil spirits and
his false preachers healing people today? No, that's not what they do.
They destroy, tear down, ruin. If satan would be healing people then the
evil would always be healthy.
Nevertheless, we in this endtime
generation must be aware of the fact that there are powers on the other
side, the evil side; and that just because a man may come some day and
appear to accomplish something supernatural—that is not enough proof that he
is truly a man of God. Remember, antichrist (satan) shall deceive a great
many people with his exhibitions of spiritual power:
Revelation
13:13-14
13 And he [satan/antichrist]
doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on
the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth
by the means of
those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of
the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should
make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did
live. KJV
But know that God is always more
powerful, for it is God who allows satan to have this power, for a time.
And what God gives, He can take away. But God is powerful over all, which
we witnessed briefly when the miracle serpent of God made from Aaron's rod
(staff) devoured the serpents made by Pharaoh's magicians in Ex 7:12. And
all who engage in sorcery and evil-spirit manifestations shall perish.
And don't forget what Jesus told us to do
to determine if a preacher or whatnot is true or false:
Matthew 7:15-23
[Jesus speaking]
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns,
or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree
bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast
into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their
fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in
heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied
in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done
many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me,
ye that work iniquity. KJV
And what does each and every—all—of these so-called "healing
ministries" and "healing preachers" do? What is their fruit? They
petition you for money. Their whole fake "miracle show" is a well
orchestrated act designed for one purpose alone—to obtain donations from
the thousands of people watching and attending. Another fruit to test
them by is the fact that most (I dare say all) every single one of them
professes the false unbiblical doctrine of "talking in tongues" and the
"Rapture" hoax. And a great many of them engage in unscriptural
"spiritualism" as in their "slain in the spirit" and other such
manifestations of evil spirits disguised as agents of God. Another scam
ministry theme is the "prosperity ministers" who prosper only
themselves on your money. These shall all face the fire.
Therefore, if they do not even understand their Bibles, and if they
cannot even discern evil spirits for what they are—even inviting them to
possess their congregation(!), then why would we assume that they are
gifted from God to promote healings and financial blessings?
And don't you think that if one of these
fake preachers (like Benny Hinn, for instance) could really heal the sick
with the wave of the hand that they would be all over the talk shows, or
emptying the hospitals? Surely Hinn and others would be selling the
healings for much money.
A real Christian who is gifted does not
profit from it and does not brag about it. And yes, God heals miraculously
even today. He always has. You just don't hear about it. And He doesn't
need a man to do it, He is quite capable of healing and blessing just
between Himself and the recipient. What I am saying is that it is not some
gifted man that heals you, it is your faith that heals you; or better
stated, it is God rewarding your faith with a blessing from Him, whether it
be a healing or a favor in life. So rather than going to some forum and
dropping cash on some false preacher for a hopeful healing, it is far more
fortuitous to get alone somewhere with God and ask Him to increase your
faith and then ask Him to heal/bless you. Asking all things, of course,
in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ; for, "I
can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth
me." (Phil 4:13), and "I
[Jesus speaking] am the vine, ye are
the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth
much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing."
(John 15:5). Also:
Ephesians 5:20
20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father
in the name of
our Lord Jesus Christ; KJV
John 14:13-14 [Jesus
speaking]
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the
Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing
in my name, I will do it. KJV
John 15:16
[Jesus speaking]
16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that
ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain:
that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father
in my name,
he may give it you. KJV
John 16:23
[Jesus speaking]
23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto
you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father
in my name,
he will give it you. KJV
Colossians 3:17
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all
in the name of the
Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by
him. KJV
That is the "formula" of all prayer: Pray
to, give thanks to, and ask of, God—in Jesus Christ's name.
It's not complicated, just say: "Thank you Father, in Jesus' precious name."
Prayer is not some complicated matter, with all kinds of obscure rules and
regulations, it is just you speaking to God. That is what prayer
is—the faithful speaking to God.
When a ministry or a
minister makes it complicated and difficult, that is the time to cast a wary
eye at him. And what he says must align with the Scriptures of the
Bible and he cannot contradict those words from our God that are contained
in that Bible.
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

Antichrist/satan's ability to counterfeit miracles during
the Tribulation
A long time reader writes:
Subject: count me gone
[and] Subject: Unsubscribe notification
Nick; count me gone, when a web site that I read tells me that satin
will snap his fingers and lightning will appear is the same as the

Answer:
Wow, it was just that easy to lose you, huh?
Okay, sorry to see you go, you have been a reader for some time
now. But you should at least leave with the truth:
Revelation 13:11-14
11 And I beheld another beast
[antichrist/satan] coming up
out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as
a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him,
and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the
first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh
fire come down
from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means
of those miracles which he had power to do in the
sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that
they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a
sword, and did live. KJV
fire:
Greek word #4442 pur (poor); a primary word;
"fire" (literally or figuratively,
specifically, lightning): KJV - fiery, fire.

Judaism unwittingly confirms Jesus
Christ
A reader writes:
After reading through one of the last questions, can anyone or has
anyone produced any documented evidence that Jesus Christ actually
existed? [Xxxxxx]
Answer:
"After reading through one of the
last questions, can anyone or has anyone produced any documented
evidence that Jesus Christ actually existed?"
Well, I suppose that you mean from a
secular or non-Christian source? From a non-Biblical source? From a source
other than the knowing heart of a faithful Christian? If so, then the
answer is yes, and from an unlikely source—The Jewish Talmud.
Those who hated Him so much that they arraigned to have Him killed based
upon their false witness (lies, perjured testimony), have unwittingly
forever memorialized Him in their vile "holy" book, the Babylonian Talmud.
Oh, there are written Roman records of
this Jesus, but the Jew's religious writings are a source that no one on
Earth could claim to be lying to support Jesus Christ. Therefore,
when the existence of the Jesus of the New Testament is documented in the
Judaic's holiest book (esteemed above the Hebrew Bible by the rabbis) it
must carry weight.
The Talmud makes numerous references to
Jesus Christ. The Talmud documents that they killed Him (they claim that
they rightly did so by "Jewish" law). The Talmud confirms that Jesus was
from Nazareth, that His mother's name was Mary, that He performed miracles
(but they attribute it to sorcery), and even places Jesus Christ in the
correct Roman era.
So, ironically, while they certainly
didn't mean to, the great enemies of God and Christ while attempting to
defame Him have unwittingly preserved a confirmatory written record other
than the Holy Bible that Jesus Christ did in fact exist and walk this Earth.
1 Corinthians
1:27-29
27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the
wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the
things which are mighty;
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God
chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that
are:
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. KJV
Of course, the Talmud ascribes at
least five
deaths to this Jesus, states that He is
forever in
hell boiling in hot feces (and in
boiling semen
in one account!), and that His mother Mary
was a whore
who "slept with many men," that His real father was a Roman soldier who
sired Him in a brothel, and that he was born niddah (unclean) in
that they say that His mother Mary conceived Him while she was
menstruating. Yes, all these things are written in the Jew's Talmud, but
Christians aren't told this and their clergy appears to be willingly
ignorant of them. These blasphemies shall be visited upon every religious
Jew on Judgment Day; for they partake in the evil deed by upholding the vile
book containing these greatest of blasphemies.
Psalms 37:9-20
9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord,
they shall inherit the earth.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou
shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight
themselves in the abundance of peace.
12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with
his teeth.
13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to
cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright
conversation.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows
shall be broken.
16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of
many wicked.
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the Lord
upholdeth the righteous.
18 The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance
shall be for ever.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of
famine they shall be satisfied.
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be
as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they
consume away. KJV
Yet, no doubt that your Christian
preacher told you that the "Jews" are "God's chosen people." Obviously,
there is a problem here.
For documentation of the
source of all the above claims by Rabbinical Judaism (and many many more!),
from Jewish sources no less, see Elizabeth Dilling's
The Plot Against
Christianity (later renamed to The Jewish Religion: Its Influence
Today).
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

So-called discoveries of archaeological "evidence"
against Jesus Christ; and "not giving heed to Jewish fables" (Titus
1:14)
A reader writes:
Just wondered if you saw this and
what you thought.
Answer:
Hi [Xxxxxx]. Yes, I have been watching that story. The
problem is that the project is being run by Christ-hating Judaics who
want to interpret the tablet in a preconceived manner. Frankly, I don't
trust non-Christians—especially Judaics who are sworn opponents of
Jesus Christ—to do translating and interpretation. "They" also
dominated the Dead Sea Scrolls project (the crypto-Jew Rockefeller
financed and controlled the project) and withheld the contents of the
Scrolls for circa 50 years. (And how do we know that certain Dead Sea
Scrolls were withheld or stolen?)
The article opens with:
"The death and resurrection of
Christ has been called into question by a radical new interpretation of
a tablet found on the eastern bank of the Dead Sea.
The three-foot stone tablet
appears to refer to a Messiah who rises from the grave three days after
his death - even though it was written decades before the birth of
Jesus.
The ink is badly faded on much
of the tablet, known as Gabriel’s Vision of Revelation, which was
written rather than engraved in the 1st century BC. This has led some
experts to claim that the inscription has been overinterpreted."
That having been said, it would not matter if a
"prophet" wrote that stone before Jesus Christ came to be crucified.
The reason is, is that Messiah was prophesied to come way back in
the Old Testament. Many detailed prophecies exist in the Old
Testament of what Messiah would do. This is how and why
so many of the false religions of old were able to impersonate the Messiah
long before He (Jesus) really came. You will have these anti-Christian
buffoons spitefully tell you that the Babylonians had a mother and child
figure, and that other pagan religions had a figure who died and rose
again—as though this discounts Jesus Christ! It discounts nothing,
they had the Scriptures and prophecies to work from when they made their
traditions. The resurrection of Messiah was prophesied in 1000
B.C., which antedates (comes
before) any religion extant on the earth today:
Psalms 16:5-11
[King David writing in circa 1000
B.C. of the Messiah]
5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou
maintainest my lot.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly
heritage.
7 I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel: my reins also
instruct me in the night seasons.
8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand,
I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also
shall rest in hope.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell
[literally, the grave]; neither wilt
thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption
[flesh decomposition].
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is
fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
KJV
Apostle Peter expounds on the above prophecy
and explains it more fully for us:
Acts 2:22-32
22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved
of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him
in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of
God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:
24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because
it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
25 For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always
before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also
my flesh shall rest in hope:
27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou
suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full
of joy with thy countenance.
29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch
David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us
unto this day.
30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an
oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he
would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that
his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. KJV
As regarding those of today, ungodly
men who deny Christ Jesus, and how they say that the Babylonians wrote a
"creation story" before Moses wrote it: Moses did indeed begin writing
the Old Testament for God in circa 1490
B.C., and the Babylonian
fragments do antedate that (come earlier); however, Moses wrote of events
that had happened long before 1490
B.C., and long before
the Babylonians wrote their corrupted traditions. So, when they say
that the Babylonians had a creation narrative before Moses did, and that
therefore Moses copied from them and corrupted it, they are being deceitful.
The Babylonian account is short and contains nowhere near the the fine
detail that is contained in Moses' (God's) account which is in our Bible
today. And quite frankly, why would we suppose it odd that the
Babylonians had ancient traditions handed down by word of mouth, albeit
corrupted by time, that bore some similarity to the Bible's detailed and
inspired account? What makes their flimsy account more credible than
God's account in the book of Genesis? Do not all the primitive peoples
speak of the sun in the sky? Does that mean that God did not create
that sun? I really don't see their reasoning, if we are to be so kind
as to refer to it as that. These are
all tricks used by satan's people to instill doubt in the hearts of God's
Christian people. They ("Jewish" scholars) say that Moses copied the
Babylonian narrative and altered it—when in realty the Babylonians corrupted
the truth of the Garden of Eden under the influence of Cain who carried a
corrupted version of the early creation events into Nod to the Sumerians.
(Be not surprised that I state "Jewish scholars"; for it was Jewish scholars
and rabbis that fabricated the blasphemous Babylonian Talmud which is today
the Jew's holiest book, taking a position of authority over the Old
Testament [called by them the Tanakh] wherever the two disagree.) Cain, after
being rejected of God and cast out, corrupted the events of the Garden of
Eden and made gods of Adam and Eve. An excellent
(free E-book) on this is:
SARGON
THE MAGNIFICENT
by
Mrs. Sydney Bristowe.
Book Description: Written in 1927, within this book the author explains
her reasons for believing that archeological discoveries in Babylonia
prove that Cain (Gen 4:1) was Sargon The first in the ancient
inscriptions. Excellent hard to find data & documentation. This book
comes and goes in and out of print; and is always hard to find. Now for
a time I see that Amazon.com has some new & used copies (I could never
find it with them in the past). The only objection that I have is that
the author fails to make the connection between Cain and the Kenites,
also, that she does not come right out and say that Cain was of the
Serpent, but does give inscriptions and other archeological evidences
that their people worshipped the Serpent. But this is a scholarly but
easy to read book that fills in many of the blanks in the search for the
true identify of the Kenite of the Bible. For instance, the author
gives evidence and reason that Ham, Nimrod's grandfather (Gen 10:8ff)
married Naamah (Cain's only named female descendant - Gen 4:22). This
of course, is significant to the researcher interested in such things.
Not to mention that satan, who knows
all Scripture, had direct influence on all of their ancient (and present)
cults. It shall happen again as antichrist/satan comes during the
Tribulation pretending to be God (2nd Thes 2:1-4). No doubt
he will give the illusion of fulfilling Old Testament (and New Testament)
prophecies. No big deal. Everything that is to happen has been
written in the prophecies, so what great feat is it for satan to imitate it
before God and Jesus fulfill it in its appointed time? It is no big
deal whatsoever. Even God's Word states that satan will have power to
perform (false and deceiving) miracles:
Revelation 13:11-18
11 And I beheld another beast
[antichrist/satan] coming up out of the
earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast
before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell
therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come
down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth
by the means of those
miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the
beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an
image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the
beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as
many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and
poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their
foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the
name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of
the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred
threescore and six. KJV
The article boasts the below, as though this
would somehow make Jesus "to be not true" (God forbid!):
"The
three-foot stone tablet appears to refer to a Messiah who rises from
the grave three days after his
death - even
though it was written decades before the birth of Jesus"
But it is no big deal that a deceiver (or even a
serious Old Testament scholar) would be able to "predict" what the
Messiah would do when He did finally come. Jesus Himself declared that
His three days of death was long ago prophesied in the book of Jonah
(circa 690 B.C.):
Matthew 12:38-42
[Jesus speaking to His enemies]
38 Then certain of the
scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying,
Master, we would see a sign from thee.
39 But he answered and said
unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a
sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the
prophet Jonas:
40 For as Jonas
was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall
the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the
earth.
41 The men of Nineveh shall
rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it:
because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a
greater than Jonas is here.
42 The queen of the south
shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall
condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to
hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold,
a greater than
Solomon is here. KJV
Jesus was referring to the book of
Jonah, written circa 690 B.C.;
so the prophecy was written down and available to people long before
this so-called stone writing was found. They say
that the stone dates "decades" before Jesus Christ. Okay, that is what
they say, but that doesn't make it true. But as I have
illustrated, it wouldn't matter if it really did antedate Jesus Christ.
Actually, the Bible itself witnesses that false messiahs and religious
movement leaders had arisen a generation or so prior to Jesus Christ.
So the Bible isn't "running from this." Observe:
Acts 5:27-42
27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council
[Sanhedrin]: and the high priest asked
them,
28 Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in
this [Jesus'] name?
and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine
[Christianity], and intend
to bring this man's [Jesus']
blood upon us.
29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey
God rather than men.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew
and hanged on a tree.
31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a
Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy
Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
33 When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to
slay them.
34 Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named
Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people,
and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
35 And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what
ye intend to do as touching these men.
36 For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be
somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined
themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were
scattered, and brought to nought.
37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing,
and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as
many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone:
for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
39 But if it be of God, ye
cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against
God.
40 And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and
beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of
Jesus, and let them go.
41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that
they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach
and preach Jesus Christ. KJV
You might also notice that by the
words of the learned Jew, Gamaliel, that Jesus is true, for even this
respected (by them) Pharisee and Sanhedrin member, Gamaliel stated "for
if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: But if it be
of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against
God" (verse 38b-39 above). Well, as we
see, they were not able to overthrow it; in fact, Christianity became (and
remains) the dominant religion on the planet. And the "Jews," not
hearkening to their learned elder, Gamaliel, have been "found
even to fight against God" then and ever since then.
And Christians today need to "get out of bed" with them. If they deny
Jesus Christ then they are not your friend, they are not "nice misled
religious people," they are as the heathen—nay, worse; for they blaspheme
Christ daily. This offence few heathen even dare to do. Even
Koran-knowledgeable Muslims do not blaspheme Christ's name, saying rather,
"peace be upon his name," whenever speaking of Him. The Hindus have no
words of blasphemy at Jesus Christ. But those enemies of God, the
"Jews" in their Babylonian Talmud call Jesus balaam and many
other worse things not fit to print before the faithful! (See,
THE TRUTH ABOUT THE
TALMUD: A Documented Exposé of Jewish Supremacist Hate Literature.)
Yet, today most (misled) Christians call the "Jews" God's Chosen People!
What do you suppose that God has "chosen" for those whom murdered His Son by
their false witness and then obstinately declared shamelessly and fearlessly
"His blood be on us, and on our children" (Mat
27:25b)? Of more concern to the Judaized
so-called Judeo-Christians of today: what do you suppose that God
shall choose for you when you "biddeth him God speed"
those that deny and blaspheme Lord Messiah Jesus Christ? You needn't
guess, God told us quite clearly how He feels about "clouds without water"
antichrist loving Judeophiles (obviously, this does not apply to true
Christians):
2 John 6-11
6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the
commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk
in it.
7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver
and
an antichrist.
8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not
[don't loose] those things which we have
wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ,
hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both
the Father and the Son.
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive
him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is
partaker of his evil deeds. KJV
Moving on... And let's not forget
just
who these people
are that are telling us that their stone "proves" Jesus to be a fraud.
It is antichrist Judaics and their attendant Atheists. So bold are
they becoming that they don't even bother to hide behind "Gentile" Fronts
anymore—indicating what a late stage that we are presently are at! And the
interpretation of the tablet was done by Talmudists. (This is not in your
article, but in another article on the subject we read: "Daniel
Boyarin, a professor of Talmudic culture at the
University of California at Berkeley, said.... "
Source.) And I know that I don't have to tell you of the vile
perversions in the Judaic's high "holy" book which they place
over
the Old Testament, the Jewish Babylonian
Talmud. So I wouldn't believe a word out of one of their mouths,
quite frankly.
Especially when believing what they say means that I would have
to disbelieve in Jesus Christ. God forbid! "We
ought to obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29b).
And, "God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man
a liar" (Romans 3:4a). I'd rather that
they falsely call me a bigot, exclusivist, AntiSemite, on earth, than
for them to call me friend in hell.
Quite frankly, the "Jews" have been lying about
Jesus since the day that they had Him murdered, and they continue to lie
to this very day. A wrenched lot they are. When these types of frauds
(this stone tablet writing) come out—and there will be many more fraudulent
pieces, documents, etc,
that will come out as we move towards and into the Tribulation—always
remember the below handy-work of theirs. And it doesn't matter if
it is discovered to be a fraud months or years down the line—the damage is
already done, doubt is cast upon Christ and God—for many never bother to
follow-up on these stories, they simply remember in the back of their
minds that "there has doubt been proven" against God, Christ Jesus,
and the Bible.
Below is a prime example of the making of
a Jewish fable, and it is the foundational model of their methods used down
throughout time leading all the way up to today's "Political Correctness"
where the truth is considered to be a lie and lies are taken for truth:
Matthew 28:5-15
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I
know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where
the Lord lay.
7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead;
and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him:
lo, I have told you.
8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy;
and did run to bring his disciples word.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them,
saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped
him.
10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that
they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
11 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the
city, and shewed unto the chief priests
[the Pharisees] all the
things that were done.
12 And when they were assembled with the elders
[the Sanhedrin], and had
taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers
[bribed them],
13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while
we slept.
14 And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and
secure you.
15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this
saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
KJV
And unto this day as well,
I might add. There comes a day when the Lord shall judge
them. The Bible-believing Christian
was warned of these type of Jewish fables (lies):
Titus 1:14
14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of
men, that turn from the truth. KJV
The Bible-believing Christian also
knows from Scripture that many of our so-called Christian brethren shall
apostatize away from the true faith and join the enemies of God, Christ,
Bible, and Church:
2 Timothy 4:1-4
4 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who
shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke,
exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but
after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having
itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be
turned unto fables. KJV
The early servants of Christ distanced themselves
from the cunning fables that denied the Messiah, and they also testified to
the faithfulness and trustworthiness of the Holy Scriptures which you today
find in your Bible:
2 Peter 1:12-21
12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of
these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present
truth.
13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you
up by putting you in remembrance;
14 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our
Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to
have these things always in remembrance.
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when
we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came
such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in
whom I am well pleased.
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him
in the holy mount.
19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that
ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the
day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture
is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but
holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. KJV
Another point to consider is the below line from
the article which you referenced:
"A
previous paper published by the scholars Ada Yardeni and Binyamin
Elitzur concluded that the most
controversial lines were
indecipherable."
Okay, if the offensive words were
"indecipherable," then what antichrist came up with their conclusions, and
by what means? And why has the Judaic-controlled media published the
above conclusions far and wide as though they were conclusive?
indecipherable
adj.
Impossible to decipher: indecipherable handwriting; an indecipherable
message.
You asked my opinion on the find. My opinion is
that it is either a fraud or it is being fraudulently interpreted
and/or fraudulently dated for the express purpose of further destroying
Christ, and thus destroying Christianity. Call it a sign of the
times.
"They hated me without a
cause" — Jesus Christ in John 15:25b.
Another article on the stone is here:
What's this? Now they claim a resurrection before Jesus ;
'Christians will find it shocking - a challenge to their theology'
Antichrist Judaics need to leave Jesus Christ alone; if they want to reject
the eternal life that only He can give them, then that is their
decision. But I don't like them lying about Jesus to turn away from the
faith marginal, new, Biblically unlearned, or prospective Christians. They wouldn't have the
guts to do this kind of stuff to the Muslim's Mohammad—and he was
a false prophet preaching a false god who is no God. Yet Christians
will not defend their Lord God, and Savior, Jesus Christ. Thus,
the Judaics act with impunity at their age old task of destroying
Christianity—usually being shielded and aided by ignorant or complacent
lukewarm neo-Christians who "Having a form of
godliness, but denying the power thereof"
(2nd Tim 3:5a).
2 Timothy 3:5-7
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such
turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive
silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
KJV
Don't think it odd that I state that today's neo(new)-Christians—false
Christians better stated—are moving away from "the
faith which was once delivered unto the saints
[and faithfully recorded in
God's Bible, I
might add]"
(Jude 3b). See the below recent poll where we
see in this twenty-first century the demise of Christianity in toto;
the sad but planned result of two-thousand years of "Jewish" diligence in
academia, media, and ecclesia:
In the below article speaking of a recent poll,
1 in 3 'Christians' say 'Jesus sinned'
Barna poll shows adults develop their own beliefs,
we learn among other things that according to their own
admission, among "Christians" today:
-
Half of Americans who call
themselves "Christian" don't believe Satan exists,
-
[but Jesus Himself spoke
with satan (Mat 4), and addressed him by name in Matt 4:10, "Get
thee hence, Satan..."]
-
fully one-third are confident
that Jesus sinned while on Earth,
-
40 percent say they do not have
a responsibility to share their Christian faith with others,
-
25 percent "dismiss the idea
that the Bible is accurate in all of the principles it teaches,"
-
[once again at odds with God, "All
scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness" (2nd Tim 3:16)]
-
"Americans are
increasingly comfortable picking and choosing what they deem to be
helpful and accurate theological views and have become comfortable
discarding the rest of the teachings in the Bible,"
Isaiah 28:9-13
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to
understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn
from the breasts.
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon
line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this
people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the
weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not
hear.
13 But the word of the
Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line
upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little;
that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared,
and taken. KJV]
And most shocking of all:
-
"In the past, when most people
determined their theological and moral points of view, the alternatives
from which they chose were exclusively of Christian options - e.g., the
Methodist point of view, the Baptist perspective, Catholic teaching, and
so forth," Barna noted. "Today, Americans are more likely to pit a
variety of non-Christian options against various Christian-based views.
This has resulted in an abundance of unique worldviews based on
personal combinations of theology drawn from a smattering of world
religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam
as well as secularism [Atheism]."
2 Corinthians
6:14-18
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what
fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what
communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he
that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are
the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in
them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be
my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the
Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father
unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord
Almighty. KJV
So how can we in good conscience call
these people Christians? Enough of them, they shall have their
reward. But we faithful Bible-believing Christians are not to
be like them, we are to come out from them. And not all who call
themselves Christians are really Christians. So don't blame
God for their fall. many of them go to these false-preacher
mega-churches, and in a fit of emotion walk down the aisle and make an
"altar call," never really being sincere making an informed choice.
How many of the millions of "Christians" that the false preachers like Billy
Graham and Benny Hinn "saved" are Christians today? I'm not judging
anybody, I'm just observing. Moving
on... We will close with a warning
to the neo ("new" [age]) Christians who "trusted in
themselves that they were righteous" (Luke 18:9b)
quite apart from the Biblical teachings of God, Jesus, the prophets, and
apostles, who are willingly (through laziness to study the Scriptures)
allowing themselves to be led astray by satan's agents and who incorrectly
haven't considered that God is willing to lose them for their
offences as He was willing to lose those from before who were once faithful
then fell away:
Jude 3-13
3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common
salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and
exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once
delivered unto the saints [today, the only
place that we can learn of this faith (doctrine) is in the Bible.
Take away the Bible = destroy the faith].
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were
before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men,
turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the
only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this,
how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of
Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left
their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under
darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner,
giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh,
are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise
dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed
about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing
accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what
they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt
themselves.
11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran
greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the
gainsaying of Core.
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you,
feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried
about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead,
plucked up by the roots;
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering
stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
Study
with understanding God's written Word, the Bible, and reject the blasphemy
from the mouths of lying unsaved "Jews" and their "Gentile" sycophants
To do otherwise is to welcome your own destruction. Are we not already
beginning to see the downfall of the once proud Christian America?
Separation of church and state? it's not in the Constitution and it
most certainly is not in God's Word! But it is the new "law of the
land" in all Christian Western Nations. And let's be honest here,
"separation of church and state" is not about separation of religion
and state, it is separation of the CHRISTIAN religion and state.
And we better hope that God doesn't grant
that wish, or we are defenseless!
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

Protection from consequence; and forgiveness
A (female) reader writes:
Subject: Protection
Is there any accounts in the bible ~ where God protected and gave
his provision to one ~ knowing that person was guilty. In other
words, instead of allowing one to face the consequences ~ he
protected them, and led them to a safer place....???
Answer:
"Is
there any accounts in the bible ~ where God protected and gave his
provision to one ~ knowing that person was guilty. In other words,
instead of allowing one to face the consequences ~ he protected
them, and led them to a safer place....???"
Yes,
absolutely: you, and every Christian. That is what Jesus Christ is
to us—protection
from the consequence of our sin:
1 John 2:1-2
2 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not.
And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ
the righteous:
2 And he is the propitiation [atonement,
"payment" for "sin debt"] for our sins: and not for ours only,
but also for the sins of the whole world. KJV
1 John 4:9-10
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God
sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live
through him [receive forgiveness
for damnable sins].
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent
his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. KJV
There are
several times in the Old Testament where God did not utterly cut off His
people Israel for their sins. He did this for His namesake, for His honor,
because that He had made promises to them. One such example would be below
to king David's children:
Psalms 89:30-34
30 If his [David's] children
forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their
iniquity with stripes.
33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not
utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34 My covenant will I not break,
nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. KJV
Psalms 106:6-8
6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have
done wickedly.
7 Our fathers understood not thy
[speaking to God] wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the
multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red
sea.
8 Nevertheless he
[God] saved them for his
name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
KJV
But probably
what you are most looking for is the below example. In the below, apostle
Paul is speaking of himself, and how that he was not punished for his deeds;
for, you will remember, blasphemy was a Capital Offence (execution by God's
warrant):
1 Timothy 1:12-17
12 And I [Paul] thank Christ Jesus
our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting
me into the ministry;
13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and
injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in
unbelief.
14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love
which is in Christ Jesus.
15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ
Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first
Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to
them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be
honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. KJV
God has been merciful to our
weaknesses, and has made a way of escape for us:
1
Corinthians 10:11
13 There hath no temptation
[trial, test,
putting to proof] taken you but such as is common to man: but
God is faithful, who will not suffer
[allow]
you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the
temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to
bear
[endure, overcome]
it.
KJV
Matthew 19:3-8
3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him,
Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which
made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and
shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God
hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of
divorcement, and to put her away?
8 He saith unto them, Moses
[by God]
because of the hardness of your hearts suffered
[allowed, permitted, made a way for]
you to put away
[divorce]
your
wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
KJV
But there
are consequences to sin. And though God shall forgive you, others
might not. For instance, apostle Paul was oft beaten and cast into prison,
though God had forgiven his grievous sin. And take for example today,
adultery: upon repentance to God in Jesus Christ' name, God shall forgive
you; however, your husband may still divorce you. But even that
can be effected by prayer to God for mercy and a change of heart
in others. The same goes for landing a job or receiving the
mercy of the court system, etc. God can and so often
does effect change in the hearts of others who have direct
bearing on our lives and situations, that who have positions of authority or
decision-making over and beyond us Christians (many times without our
knowledge even). Don't read over that lightly. And if you've been so
blessed—even at unawares—don't
neglect to take a moment upon discovery of such a blessing to thank Him. It
does mean so much to Him. We can never ever repay Him, but what kind of
children are we if we neglect to even thank our Heavenly Father?
I don't know
what sin or misdeed that you are wrestling with, but do know this: God is
faithful to His word and He said that through belief in Jesus Christ
all can
be saved. And know that upon repentance your every past sin can be blotted out.
"Blotted out" means that the sin no longer exists, it is stricken from your
record in Heaven. It is as though it had never happened.
Hebrews 10:9-23
9 Then said he
[Jesus],
Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first
[the Old Covenant of sacrifice for sin],
that he may establish the second [the New
Covenant, the New Testament--Jesus Christ].
10 By the which will we are sanctified
[purified, consecrated, made holy,
cleansed] through the
offering of the body
[death on the cross] of
Jesus Christ once for all
[time].
11 And
[but] every priest
[of the Old Testament
Covenant] standeth
daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can
never take away sins:
12 But this man [Jesus],
after he had offered one sacrifice
[death on the cross]
for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are
sanctified.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had
said before,
16 This is the covenant
[the New Covenant, the New Testament—Jesus Christ]
that I will make with them
after those days
[the First Advent],
saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds
will I write them
[the giving of the Holy Spirit and the
Christian conscience that follows];
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission
[pardon, freedom, forgiveness]
of these
[sins] is
[once forgiven of a sin by Christ's
sacrifice], there is
no more offering
[payment, debt owed, guilt uncleansed]
for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the
blood of Jesus
[death on the cross],
20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through
the veil, that is to say, his flesh
[death on the cross];
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith,
having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies
washed with pure water
["the Living Water," that is to say, Christ Jesus (John 4:9-14)].
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for
he
[God] is faithful that
promised;) KJV
So often, for shame's sake, we will not release ourselves from a certain
sin, we will not let it go. Forgive yourself, God has already forgiven
you the moment that you repented in Jesus Christ's name. Why keep yourself
in bondage to a sin that the Lord has forgotten?
Hebrews 2:9-18
9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the
suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace
of God should taste death for every man.
10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all
things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their
salvation perfect through sufferings.
11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of
one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the
church will I sing praise unto thee.
13 And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the
children which God hath given me.
14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he
also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might
destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
15 And deliver them
[,]
who through fear of death
[as the rightful consequence of sin
("For
the wages of sin is death"
— Rom 6:23a)]
were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16 For verily he
[God]
took not on him the nature of angels; but he
[God]
took on him the seed of Abraham
[man, as Jesus].
17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him
[Jesus]
to be made like unto his brethren
[see verse 11 above,
"brethren"],
that he
[Jesus]
might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to
God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
18 For in that he himself
[Jesus]
hath suffered being tempted
[Mat 4:3, etc.],
he is able to succour
[aid, relieve, help]
them that are tempted. KJV
Jeremiah 31:33-37
33 But this shall be the covenant [the
New Covenant, the New Testament—written in the blood of Jesus Christ]
that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days
[the advent of Messiah (the First Advent,
it turns out],
saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in
their hearts
[the giving of the Holy Spirit and the
Christian conscience that follows];
and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man
his brother, saying,
["]Know
the Lord["]:
for they shall all know me
[John 14:6-9],
from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord; for I
will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
35 Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the
ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which
divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Lord of hosts is his
name:
36
If
those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then
the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for
ever.
37 Thus saith the Lord;
If
heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched
out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that
they have done, saith the Lord. KJV
And if it is not the forgiveness of sin, per sey, that you are
paining over; but rather, if it is the consequences of some action/misdeed
on your part that you are worried about—maybe like getting sued for divorce,
or fired, or imprisoned, or humiliated,
etc—then
simply pray to God in Jesus' name for help, and believe that He shall
help you. Anything beyond that is in God's hands and out of yours—and
that isn't a bad place to be in. I would much rather be at the mercy
of God rather than trust in the ableness of mine own might.
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.

How could Cain be sent to a populated region so
early in the Biblical narrative? Where did those people of Nod
come from?
A reader writes:
After Cain slew Able he went to (I believe Caanan)
and it was populated. Where did the people come from? It doesn't
seem to make sense that a city could be populated at this time.
Thanks
[Xxxxx Xxxxxx]
Answer:
Hello. Adam and Eve were not the first two
people on the Earth. They were of the 'eighth day creation,' they were
a special creation for a special purpose. But all peoples and races of
the world were created on the sixth day. To see this fully explained
through Scripture, see our:
Mankind; two
separate 'creation events'
Cain found his wife (and built a city for the
people he went to live with [to rule over actually, but this
later point is extrabiblical]) with the peoples of the sixth day
creation who antedated (came before) Adam by at least a thousand years,
closer perhaps to two thousand years.
For a better understanding of the early creation
time, which you most likely won't hear in your church for various
reasons, see the below three Bible studies, preferably in the order
given below:
-
-
-
I would dare say that a working understanding of the information
contained in the above three foundational Bible studies is most
important—nay, necessary—for a fuller understanding of much of the Bible
and the Biblical timeline and God's good and perfect purposes. The
above three studies, or rather the information drawn from the Bible
contained within them, serve to shoot-down a great majority of the
Bible-deniers arguments. in other words, the doubters criticize that
which they do not understand, they have been mistaught and flat out
lied-to by the father of lies (satan) and his human agents.
Peace to you in Christ Jesus.
