Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:11

 Section 1 - The Old Testament -  Plan A & Plan B

When the Israelites eventually did reach the Promised Land the first thing they were commanded by God to do was destroy all the altars and images that had been set up there by pagan tribes to honour Baal and Asherah. Once more we see an insistence from God that their camp is kept clean. Holiness is paramount.The fate of the world is resting on these people. Instead of doing so, they ended up turning their back on God and worshipping the idols again. The lure of the gods that surround them and the culture in which they have been steeped keeps polluting and sidetracking God’s people and God is constantly disciplining them and drawing them back into Him. The battle between God and Satan for this people group manifests itself in a tug of war where the Israelites are constantly rebelling and being restored.

The determination of Satan to destroy the relationship the Jews have with God throughout the Bible is very clear. They were after all fast becoming the last barrier between him and total domination. He wasn’t about to leave them alone.

And at this point I want to introduce you to an absolutely vital point which we’ll develop in the following parts. I call it Satan’s Plan A and Plan B and it crops up constantly so we really need to get a hold of it. What Satan wants above everything else is domination or control. Now there are two ways to achieve this. One way is considered the feminine way which is employed when in a position of weakness. It’s manipulation. If women are to attempt to control their husbands, this is generally how they do it. Through tears, hurt feelings, emotional blackmail etc. The second way of achieving domination is considered the masculine way and it’s through violence or intimidation. This is generally how men control people, by threatening with their strength. So there’s a feminine way associated with the moon goddess or Asherah, which I refer to as Plan A, and a masculine way associated with the sun god or Baal that I refer to as Plan B. But both techniques are aiming for the same satanic end, which is control or domination.

Now up until this stage of human history, Satan had always managed to get his way with Plan A; subtle manipulation. He appealed to the pride of the angels and a third of them followed him. He appealed to the pride of Adam and Eve and the same thing happened. After the flood he managed to influence Nimrod and Semiramis and satanic polytheism began filling the Earth. He must have felt pretty pleased with himself because in the time period between Adam and Moses, human beings had actually been very easy pickings for him. He’d been able to sway  pretty much whoever he wanted, whenever he wanted, without much resistance. He’d never had to go to war against humans in an overt sense; he’d merely appealed to their vanity and offered them the world. In the face of that offer, they had buckled every time.

Some more examples of this. When the Muslim prophet Muhammad first established Islam, his initial approach to the Jews was the same. Muhammad tried to be subtle about introducing his false religion into their midst. He claimed he served the same God as them and was a prophet.  This was Plan A. When the Jews rejected his claims, he turned violent against them and was hell bent on their destruction for the rest of his days. This was Plan B. When Jesus was in the wilderness prior to the commencement of his ministry, Satan tempted him with Plan A. He promised him land, wealth, status. When Jesus turned him down, Satan saw to it that he was crucified. This was Plan B. When Edmund finds himself in Narnia in the Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe by CS Lewis, the white witch is charming and polite, offering him Turkish Delight and hot chocolate.

Message by Sr.Angelica on August 14,2016(National Light House Conference) at Chennai

Ground is ready for Troop Churches

What is a Troop Church?

A Church where every believer is trained as a soldier to fight with satan.

A Church where every member manifests the five signs mentioned in Mark 16:17,18

A Church which is not institutional,  no buildings, lands or properties of its own

A Church which is not hierarchical

A Church which is not denominational

A Church which equips every soldier to be  a leader with shepherding qualities

A Church which gathers in houses, workplaces, offices etc

A Church which disperses after finding 10 members to start a new troop within a given time.

How to build this Church?

1. With living stones (1 peter 2:4,5 )  of  two types
2. Raw as it is cut  from the rock
3. trimmed with hammer and chisels as per 1 Ki 6:7 (in their workplaces, families)

One  will gather 10 members (stone upon stone,) as Jesus trained His disciples. (Mat. 28:19,20) They will be trained in the troop which will be the  process making disciples.

“In union with him the whole building is joined together and rises into a holy sanctuary for the Lord. You, too, are being built in him, along with the others, into a place for God's Spirit to dwell.” Eph 2:21-22 

How to be built in Him along with the others into a place for God’s Spirit to dwell? The brothers and sisters who are in  Chennai  are going to prove  to you that the place where God’s spirit  dwells is the troop Church where they come together for

Comforting each other (Is 40:1)

Ministering to each other  (through prophesying)

Loving each other (1 Cor 13:4-8)

Caring for each other (phil. 2:4)

Sharing with each other (Acts: 4:32)

Correcting each other  (Mat 18:15)

Fellowshipping with each other(Heb 10:25)

Supporting each other (3 Jn 1:8)

In the past 18 years, from 1998-2016, we have seen the evolution of Troop Meetings into Troop Churches. In the year 2014, a command came from the Lord to convert Troop meetings into Troop Churches. A few believers  tried it and it was proved  successful. After trying it in one Troop Church in Chennai,  they got the courage to bring out this revelation  to the whole Church in India. Today is the day, The Church in Chennai wants to cry out this truth to the whole of India. That is why you are here. This is the importance of the day.

Thank you for accepting the invitation.

To those who have applied the new strategy of the Lord, (Troop Churches) I make an appeal to you dear soldiers of Jesus Christ,.

“ I tell you, unless your righteousness greatly exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven!" Mat 5:20 

2000 years old Church which existed on this earth has made great contributions   to human history. But the earth  still  longs to see the manifestation of the glorious Church in all its beauty, which suits its bridegroom, Jesus Christ.

“… not only the creation, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit also groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, the redemption of our bodies. i.e. to be set free from corrupting bondage in order to share the glorious freedom of God's children”..Rom 8:23,21

Let the Troop Church soldiers’ righteousness exceed the righteousness of all the existing Churches on earth. This is possible only through the Holy Spirit.

Like Hiram sent a craftsman to Solomon who was an expert in everything, let us commit and surrender ourselves fully into the hands of Holy Spirit  who can do everything in us and basically change our fleshly character into the divine nature of Jesus Christ  who  is  the owner and Master of the Church.

Ecumenical Movement Tries To Push Catholic & Protestant Churches Together

Are there fundamental differences between Protestantism and Roman Catholicism? Do any such differences matter at all? Historical events demonstrate that Protestant belief was in fact birthed out of a major protest or rebellion against theological doctrines held by the Catholic Church that were considered heretical.

Heather Clark for ChristianNews.net recently narrated a summary of the historical chronology of events that led up to the current split. Clark recounted that the Protestant Reformation, which resulted in the Counter-Reformation by the Jesuits, was sparked by a monk and scholar named Martin Luther, who served the Roman Catholic Church in Wittenberg, Germany.

 "I think I've found the truth at last," the classic film "Martin Luther" depicts Luther as stating to a Church official. "By faith man lives and is righteous, not by what he does for himself, be it adoration of relics, singing of masses, pilgrimages to Rome, purchase of pardon for his sins, but by faith in what God has done for him already through His Son."

Following the revelation, Luther began to challenge the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church, compiling a list of '95 theses' where he asserted that Catholic doctrine contradicted the Scriptures. He was later summoned to appear before a meeting of the Church and was declared a heretic and excommunicated.

Yet today there is a drive to re-unite the two major but opposite theological camps in an ecumenical exercise that emphasizes unity irrespective of significant doctrinal difference and conflicting Biblical interpretations with regards to the Christian tenets of faith.

In one such example, Clark reported that the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) recently voted overwhelmingly to approve a declaration of unity with the Roman Catholic Church in an endeavor to "enumerate the many points of agreement between Lutherans and Catholics"--a move that some state is contrary to Biblical Christianity.

Coincidentally, the ELCA and Roman Catholicism both teach 'replacement theology', i.e. that the church has replaced Israel and become the heir of all covenants made with her. This could explain the two anti-Israel resolutions passed at the recent ELCA assembly.

The "Declaration on the Way" was approved 931-9 in New Orleans. It "seeks to make more visible the unity we share by gathering together agreements reached on issues of church, Eucharist, and ministry." However, it is called "on the way" because "dialogue has not yet resolved all the church-dividing differences on these topics."

"Dear sisters and brothers, let us pause to honor this historic moment," ELCA Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton said in an address to the assembly. "Though we have not yet arrived, we have claimed that we are, in fact, on the way to unity. After 500 years of division and 50 years of dialogue, this action must be understood in the context of other significant agreements we have reached, most notably the 'Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification' in 1999."

While this month's ELCA declaration calls out points of agreement between evangelical Lutherans and Roman Catholics, it also outlines several areas where differences remain between the two entities:

" Roman Catholics believe in transubstantiation, while Lutherans do not believe that communion is transformed "into the [actual] substance of the body and blood of Christ."

" Lutherans question the global papacy, which Roman Catholics assert is of the succession of Peter.

Mike Gendron, a former Roman Catholic who now leads Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries, an organization dedicated to evangelizing Catholics, said that the ECLA is in error in seeking to find common ground with Roman Catholicism despite these doctrinal disparities.

"By seeking unity with the Catholic religion they are departing from the Biblical faith of the Reformers," he told Christian News Network. "They need to know that there can never be Biblical unity between Roman Catholics and denominations which uphold the Gospel of God."

He noted several other integral and fundamental differences between evangelicals and Roman Catholics:

" The Bible teaches justification by faith; Catholicism condemns with anathema those who believe justification is by faith alone (Romans 4);

" The Bible teaches we are born again by the sovereign work of the Holy Spirit; Catholicism teaches regeneration is by water baptism (John 3);

" The Bible teaches we are purified of sin by the blood of Jesus; Catholicism teaches purification is by the fires of purgatory (1 John 1:7);

" The Bible teaches that Jesus is the one Mediator between God and man; Catholicism offers many mediators including Mary and its priests (1 Timothy 2:5).

Gendron said that unity simply for the sake of religious unity is contrary to the Scriptures.

Yet another clear bone of contention is the role of Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ who holds an elevated and revered position in Roman Catholicism. Clark in a separate report stated that Pope Francis recently prayed for Mary to intercede for the oppressed.

The Pope recently urged the thousands gathered to observe what is known as the Roman Catholic "Feast of the Assumption" that Mary had been "assumed into Heaven body and soul."

"To the Queen of Peace, who we contemplate today in heavenly glory, I wish to entrust once again the anxieties and sufferings of the people who, in many parts of the world, are innocent victims of persistent conflict," he said. The Pope also led those gathered in the Magnificat and a recitation of the Angelus Domini.

Gendron held this belief about Mary to be un-Biblical. "The dogma that celebrates the assumption of Mary's body into Heaven is closely tied to another Catholic dogma, which is, the immaculate conception of Mary," he explained. "In 1854, Pope Pius IX declared Mary was conceived free from original sin and she remained free of every personal sin throughout her entire life

"Two thousand years ago the Pharisees nullified the word of God with their ungodly traditions and were soundly rebuked and called hypocrites by the Lord Jesus (Mark 7:6-14). Catholic bishops have made the same fatal error by rejecting and opposing God's word," Gendron said.

He noted that the Bible clearly states that all have sinned--including Mary, who Catholics declare to have been conceive immaculately, i.e. without inherited sin, and therefore received into Heaven bodily.

"In Romans 3:10-12, 23, we read, 'None is righteous, no, not one...All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one ... all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.'

Gotquestions.com explains that Mary herself understood this fact, as she declared in Luke 1:47, ". . . and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. . ." Mary recognized that she needed the Savior. The Bible never says that Mary was anyone but an ordinary human whom God chose to use in an extraordinary way.

Despite these stark differences on critical aspects of doctrine, the ecumenical movement continues to seek unity at any cost. Early June, Clark reported on an event featuring Hillsong United, Lecrae, Michael W. Smith, Josh McDowell, Ravi Zacharias, Francis Chan and other prominent evangelical and Catholic speakers and musicians that took place in Washington, D.C.

Worship leader, Matt Maher, who identifies as a Roman Catholic, has declared at other ecumenical events, that he believes it is his calling to work toward to the unification of Christians and Catholics.

"We've never seen a unified church before in the history of the church since the Reformation. We don't even know what it looks like," he said at OneThing 2015. "I think what the work of unity starts with [is]: It starts with us praying together. It starts with us fellowshipping together. It starts with us having a common respect for each other, a love for each other."

 "Together 2016" was convened with the unity agenda in mind. The ecumenical event was held on July 16 at the National Mall in Washington, and sought to unite those of various backgrounds to "stand together for Jesus." Both Christians and Catholics alike were featured at the prayer and worship event.

"Together 2016 is about laying aside what divides us to lift up Jesus who unites us," organizer Nick Hall of PULSE told Christian News Network. "We are coming together in historic unity to pray for a reset for our nation."

Pope Francis also delivered a video message to those in attendance.

"We are humbled and honored by his involvement and are eager to share his message with the crowd that gathers at Together 2016," Hall told the Christian Post. "That His Holiness would choose to speak into this historic day is a testament to the urgency and the need for followers of Jesus to unite in prayer for our nation and our world."

Gendron begged to differ, saying that Jesus Himself came to divide with truth, and prayed that His Church would be sanctified by that truth.

"It was the Lord Jesus Christ who came to divide: He divides with His word and His gospel. He divides mother against daughter, father against son--and we must remain sanctified and not united with any who are not born again," he explained. "More than ever, we must maintain the exclusivity of the Gospel of Christ. What hope does an unbelieving world have unless we maintain the purity of the Gospel?"

Gendron also stated that he is concerned about the message that it will send when Christians see evangelical leaders involved with an event that validates Roman Catholicism and therefore does not view those in that religion as a mission field.

"This is going to put the Gospel off-limits to many Roman Catholics who are there, so it will also confuse the evangelical Church," he said.

According to gotquestions.com, confusion is already rampant in this regard. The site teaches that a key distinction between Catholics and Christians is the view of the Bible. Catholics view the Bible merely as having equal authority with the Church and tradition while Christians view the Bible as the supreme authority for faith and practice.

A second key difference between Catholics and Bible Christians is the understanding of how we can approach God. Catholics tend to approach God through intermediaries, such as Mary or the saints. Christians approach God directly, offering prayers to no one other than God Himself. The Bible proclaims that we ourselves, through Christ our High Priest, can approach God's throne of grace with boldness. (Hebrews 4:16)

There is no need for mediators or intermediaries, as Christ is our one and only Mediator (1 Timothy 2:5), and both Christ and the Holy Spirit are already interceding on our behalf (Romans 8:26-27; Hebrews 7:25).

Gotquestions.com adds that the most crucial difference between Catholics and Bible Christians is on the issue of salvation. Catholics view salvation almost entirely as a process, while Christians view salvation as both a completed status and a process.

Catholics see themselves as "being saved," while Christians view themselves as "having been saved."

The Bible presents salvation as a gift that is received the moment a person places faith in Jesus Christ as Savior (John 3:16) and that salvation is an accomplished work, purchased by the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ (1 John 2:2). Hebrews 7:27 says, "He sacrificed for their sins once for all when He offered Himself."

The Catholic viewpoint is that salvation is received by faith, but then must be "maintained" by good works and participation in the Sacraments.

In the light of all these critical and undeniable differences, should Christians and Catholics still be uniting ecumenically without addressing these major issues, pretending that they don't exist or are not of any consequence?

Should unity be had at the expense of Biblical truth? Should traditions take precedence over the revealed will of God? As Jesus aptly stated: "Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men" (Mark 7:7).

Yes, both groups should have a mutual love for each other. However, the scriptures still admonish Bible believers not to be "unequally yoked" with non-believers (2 Corinthians 6:14) but to rather "come out from among them" (2 Corinthians 6:14) and to avoid fellowship with those not in agreement with the infallibility and final authority of the Scriptures.

Pakistan: Taliban-linked Jamaat-ur-Ahrar claims suicide bomb attack on Christian Colony in Peshawar

Two of the attackers detonated their suicide jackets while two others were killed by security forces, officials were quoted as saying by the Dawn News.

In a brazen assault, four heavily-armed suicide attackers on Friday stormed a Christian colony, opening indiscriminate fire that left one person dead and several others injured before the terrorists were gunned down by security forces in this northwestern Pakistani city. Pakistani Taliban-linked Jamaat-ur-Ahrar claimed the responsibility for the attack.

The firing began around 6 AM when terrorists attacked the colony and exchanged fire with security forces in Warsak area of Peshawar district in Khyber-Pakthunkhwa province, officials said. Two of the attackers detonated their suicide jackets while two others were killed by security forces, officials were quoted as saying by the Dawn News. One civilian was also killed in the attack, they said. “Terrorist attacked Christian Colony Warsak Road, Peshawar. Security forces promptly responded. All 4 suicide bombers killed. Search in progress,” Director General Inter-Services Public Relations Asim Bajwa tweeted.

In the exchange of fire, two Frontier Corps soldiers, a police constable and two civilian guards were injured. No outfit has so far claimed responsibility for the attack.

Peshawar has faced numerous terrorist attacks, including the December 2014 massacre of students at an army-run school. Taliban gunmen had killed more than 150 people, most of them children, in the deadliest attack.

Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:11

 Section 1 - The Old Testament - The Desert Years

Eventually Pharaoh let the Jews go as documented in the book of Exodus butafter the dramatic and miraculous escape into the wilderness, they lost faith in the God who had liberated them and after just 2 months in the wilderness they were drawn back to the worship of false gods in the desert – the same gods that they had been surrounded with all their lives in Egypt. While Moses was at the top of Mount Sinai receiving the Ten Commandments from God, the people at the foot of the mountain began to wonder if he was ever coming down again. They lost faith and demanded that new gods be made to show them the way. They built a golden calf and claimed that this was the god that had led them out of slavery. Why a golden calf? Remember that Nimrod was represented by a bull and had a crown of bull horns because the Chaldean word for “ruler” also meant “bull”. Thus, a bull was chosen to symbolise Nimrod in his worship. Gold was chosen because gold depicted the colour of the sun.

Incidentally, have you ever wondered why Satan is often depicted with bull horns coming out of his head? Now you know. And have you ever wondered why Hindus regard bulls as sacred? Seems random doesn’t it? But now you know. Look for the threads, connect the dots, and you’ll always end up back at Babylon. With your understanding of Babylon from this series so far, you should begin to see connections you hadn’t seen before. Following after the abominable patterns of worship set by Nimrod and Semiramis, which included sexual rituals and fornication, Moses returned from the mountain to find the Israelites defiling themselves by revelling in this kind of behaviour.They defiled themselves in every sense by worshipping this satanic god,allowing idols into their camp and in the depraved acts they perpetrated in their name.

Now we have already seen examples of the cancerous spread of wickedness in the world and the same was threatening to happen amongst God’s chosen people here. Moses had to take swift action to purge the camp. A little yeast is quick to infect the whole batch and the Jews simply had to be kept holy. They were absolutely vital to God’s master plan of salvation for the world. If they too were lost to paganism, there was no hope for mankind. The whole world would be doomed to hellish misery and destruction. If the Jews did not survive as a righteous people devoted to God, then there would be no people group through whom Jesus could be born. The Messiah who was destined to die on a cross for the sins of the world, overcoming death and Satan in the process to free mankind  from the yoke of slavery it was currently under couldn’t come. The Bible that tells us about those events would never have been written meaning we would be without hope. The very existence of hope, life and liberty hinged on what happened to the Jews; it was that important. Moses made a tough decision. He asked all those who were on the Lord’s side to come to him. They were then told to strap on their swords and to kill those who weren’t. Around 3000 died that day.

This incident is used by modern atheists to portray God as a blood thirsty monster, unworthy of worship. But if those 3000 hadn’t died, the Jews had turned to paganism and Jesus hadn’t come, I doubt if there would even be a world today.

And if there was, it would be hell on earth. Satan would be running amok and there would be nothing but wickedness, depravity, pain and misery. We only have to look in further detail at some of the practices associated with the ancient gods to get an idea.

The need to  change the  present Church into His Model Church – How the Church deteriorated

Christianity made  a religion during Constantine’s period – 313 AD

Deterioration of Christianity – Complete - 300-500 AD & Dark Ages – 500 AD – 1500 AD

Reformation through Martin Luther – 1517 onwards

Reformation was only  partial solution and did not bring  100% result because of 2 reasons.

1. Instead of people, (1 Cor. 3:16,17) Constructed Buildings called Churches,

2. Hierarchical Structure. The reformers and followers still failed in abolishing these. Continued to have these two.

 Bible brought t the knowledge of ordinary people.  With the exposure of Bible after 1000 years of prohibition,   humanity entered into a new era. Protestant movement in Christian history

After 400 years, (In 1900)  Pentecostal movement started to complete the renewal . With it came the latter rain promised in Zach 12:1,2. It spread like wild fire across the world in 100 years.  But why rapid Evangelization is not taking place by the Church? We left the Bible  pattern (given in  Acts ) and invented our own Church patterns and spread it throughout the world. Now the Lord is bringing  back what was lost.

By  introducing  the real model of Jesus Christ’s Church the earth will be ready  for the latter rain and the  final harvest.

House/Troop Church is going back to the original sources and finding what was lost.. Acts 2:41-47.

Signs of the final harvest

1. Persecution of Christians throughout the world

2. Deterioration of the hierarchical and organizational Churches

3. Dissatisfaction of Christians and  Believers about  the present Church structure.

4. Development of house Church patterns throughout the world.

In India 2015 was the year for uprooting, tearing down and pulling down the old wrong pattern and 2016 is the year for building up and planting the real Church pattern. It is named Troop Church.

Why Are The Pulpits Silent On Bible Prophecy?

What incredible times we live in -- like no previous generation. The world is heading pell-mell for a conclusion though nobody knows the timing on this. But we are privileged to look at signs that are like clouds forming on the horizon. In the 1970s there were only a few events that were prophecy-related happening. There were minor shakings but sometimes connecting the dots was even a stretch!

Fast forward to today and there are so many prophecy-related events happening daily and hourly that it presents a major dilemma for those of us watching the signs of the times to know just where to focus.

 It is a privilege and a challenge to be born for such a time as this. Very little that is predicted to happen in the "last days" is good news and who wants a steady dose of bad? But if one can "look up" one can bear the heartache of looking around as the signs of the times explode on our news outlets.

The Bible asks us to be "watchmen" (Ezekiel 33). We're to be sounding an alarm. Trouble is ahead. Time is short. And I have never felt such a sense of urgency and the realization that time is, indeed, short.

I am watching signs "converge." They are stunning and breathtaking. But most pastors will not talk about them!

A third of America's Protestant pastors expect Christians to be Raptured -- or taken up in the sky to meet Jesus -- as the last of the last days begin. Over 36% believe in a pre-Tribulation Rapture. In spite of this glorious good news, their pulpits remain silent.

Over 50% of Protestant pastors, according to the survey, believe in a literal Antichrist -- but their pulpits are silent.

Most pastors hold to the basic teachings of Christ's Second Coming -- but their pulpits are silent.

This same survey says almost 50% of Protestant pastors believe in a coming Millennium and hold to premillennialism.  At this time we finally do away with the curse and fallen human nature -- but their pulpits are silent.

Pastor Tom Hughes leads The 412 Church in San Jacinto, California. He has written a thoughtful article titled, "Five Reasons Pastors Don't Teach Bible Prophecy." He writes, "Prophecy fills the Bible. End time prophecy touches every person alive today. Jesus taught on it. So did John, Paul, Peter, James, and Jude. Yet only a small percentage of churches teach this crucial part of God's message to our generation.

"Some pastors don't teach it for theological reasons. They don't believe it, don't think it applies to us, consider it symbolic, or whatever. Others believe we're probably living near the end of the age, but still refuse to touch the topic. They see it as an elective part of God's curriculum. Take it or leave it."

Hughes continues, "That's not how Jesus saw it. He reprimanded the Pharisees and Sadducees for not discerning the times. 'When it is evening you say, it will be fair weather, for the sky is red; and in the morning, it will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening. Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times.' " (Matthew 16:2-3 NKJV)

Hughes concludes, "More than a quarter of the Bible is prophecy -- much of it yet to be fulfilled. How can we give congregations a well-rounded understanding of scripture if we leave out such a vital part of it?"

He then goes on to list these five reasons pastors may not be sharing these issues in the pulpit:

1) They don't understand prophecy.

2) They fear offending members of the church.

3) They sense this will scare people.

4) People might not tithe if they think we're close to the end.

5) There is fear in looking like the "loony-tune fringe. The Harold Campings have done great damage.

The prophecies of the first coming of Christ were fulfilled. They stand as evidence that the Bible can be trusted. Prophecies of His second coming work the same way, except we get to witness these events in our time, often with our own eyes.

The nations of the world seem moved, as though by a hidden hand, into exactly the right positions on a global chess board. What an amazing thing to see it happening before our eyes! It builds faith and draws our attention God-ward. And it is a fantastic evangelism tool. 

I think the church is headed into the home stretch of her history! I base that not on emotions or wishful thinking. I base that on what I see happening daily.  Man can live for a week or two without food. We can live only days without water. But our spirits are crushed within hours without hope.

We have the good news of the ultimate hope -- the "blessed hope." (Titus 2:13) His glorious appearing. Pastors, please don't remain silent!  Share the only good news out there.

Christians Urged to Help 'Save Christian Mom Asia Bibi From Execution' in Petition to Pakistan Supreme Court

The American Center for Law and Justice and other groups are calling on Christians to raise up their voices to support Asia Bibi, a Christian mother of five whose death sentence appeal will be heard by Pakistan's Supreme Court in October. Bibi was sentenced to death in 2010 on allegations of blasphemy after two co-workers accused her of insulting the Muslim prophet Muhammad. Earlier this week, the Supreme Court set a date in October for her final appeal hearing to determine whether she will be executed or not.

The ACLJ is urging Christians to sign a petition, which has over 417,000 signatures as of Thursday morning, describing Bibi's case as the "ultimate human rights violation," and calls for her release.

Eventually Pharaoh let the Jews go as documented in the book of Exodus but after the dramatic and miraculous escape into the wilderness, they lost faith in the God who had liberated them and after just 2 months in the wilderness they were drawn back to the worship of false gods in the desert – the same gods that they had been surrounded with all their lives in Egypt. While Moses was at the top of Mount Sinai receiving the Ten Commandments from God, the people at the foot of the mountain began to wonder if he was ever coming down again. They lost faith and demanded that new gods be made to show them the way. They built a golden calf and claimed that this was the god that had led them out of slavery. Why a golden calf? Remember that Nimrod was represented by a bull and had a crown of bull horns because the Chaldean word for “ruler” also meant “bull”. Thus, a bull was chosen to symbolise Nimrod in his worship. Gold was chosen because gold depicted the colour of the sun.

Incidentally, have you ever wondered why Satan is often depicted with bull horns coming out of his head? Now you know.

And have you ever wondered why Hindus regard bulls as sacred? Seems random doesn’t it? But now you know. Look for the threads, connect the dots, and you’ll always end up back at Babylon. With your understanding of Babylon from this series so far, you should begin to see connections you hadn’t seen before. Following after the abominable patterns of worship set by Nimrod and Semiramis, which included sexual rituals and fornication, Moses returned from the mountain to find the Israelites defiling themselves by revelling in this kind of behaviour. They defiled themselves in every sense by worshipping this satanic god,allowing idols into their camp and in the depraved acts they perpetrated in their name.

Now we have already seen examples of the cancerous spread of wickedness in the world and the same was threatening to happen amongst God’s chosen people here. Moses had to take swift action to purge the camp. A little yeast is quick to infect the whole batch and the Jews simply had to be kept holy. They were absolutely vital to God’s master plan of salvation for the world. If they too were lost to paganism, there was no hope for mankind. The whole world would be doomed to hellish misery and destruction. If the Jews did not survive as a righteous people devoted to God, then there would be no people group through whom Jesus could be born. The Messiah who was destined to die on a cross for the sins of the world, overcoming death and Satan in the process to free mankind  from the yoke of slavery it was currently under couldn’t come. The Bible that tells us about those events would never have been written meaning we would be without hope. The very existence of hope, life and liberty hinged on what happened to the Jews; it was that important. Moses made a tough decision. He asked all those who were on the Lord’s side to come to him. They were then told to strap on their swords and to kill those who weren’t. Around 3000 died that day.

This incident is used by modern atheists to portray God as a blood thirsty monster, unworthy of worship. But if those 3000 hadn’t died, the Jews had turned to paganism and Jesus hadn’t come, I doubt if there would even be a world today.

Israel Prepares To Build Third Temple As It Mourns Previous Temple Destruction 

It may have been almost 2000 years since the Roman Empire destroyed the Second Temple in 70 AD and even more since the Babylonians destroyed the First Temple but a growing movement of Jews is determined to see the Temple rebuilt and once again take its place at the center of Jerusalem.

This past weekend saw thousands of Israelis from across the country converge on the capital to participate in the Fast of the 9th of Av (Tisha B'Av), the day of mourning for the destruction of the First and Second Holy Temples in Jerusalem which took place on this same day centuries apart.

Events to commemorate the day of mourning include gathering at the Western Wall as well as marching around the walls of the Old City and reading from the Book of Lamentations. Traditional customs also include not greeting one another during the fast, refraining from studying Torah, except for certain selections, sitting on low chairs until noon, refrain from bathing, leather footwear, cosmetics and intimate relations - all this a culmination of three weeks of keeping various customs that symbolize mourning and even more stringent ones during the nine days leading to the fast.

The Ninth of Av is a date marked by tragedy in Jewish history in addition to the destruction of the first and second Temples. Several other terrible events in Jewish history occurred on this date:

- The decree in Numbers 13 and 14 that they would not be allowed to enter the promised land until the entire generation had died out due to unbelief and murmuring against the Lord.

- The Bar Kokhbah Revolt was crushed resulting in the plowing of Jerusalem and the killing of 600,000 Jews by the Roman Empire

- The expulsion of the Jews from Britain in 1290

- The expulsion of the Jews of Spain by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella in 1492

- World War I erupted in 1914, causing untold suffering to the Jews of Europe and Palestine and setting the stage for World War II and the Holocaust.

- Tisha B'Av of 2005, the expulsion of 9,000 Jews from the region of Gaza by Israel's own government. This has resulted in Hamas creating a missile launching area that has seen thousands of missiles and rockets fired at Israeli civilians and consequently leading to three IDF operations...with more expected.

Speeches by many prominent Rabbis at rallies across Jerusalem were directed not only toward a sense of mourning for the past, but looking to the hope of redemption and the importance of the future, including the rebuilding of the Temple.

Rabbi Ben-Dahan spoke of the centrality of Israel's capital to the Jewish nation."We aren't the only ones who know this, our enemies know it too. There is a reason [Palestinian Authority President, Mahmoud Abbas] [a.k.a. Abu Mazen] claims that the Temple in Jerusalem never existed; there's a reason why he makes sure every archeological discovery found linking the Jewish people to the Temple Mount will disappear.

He understands that the Temple Mount is the beating heart of the Jewish people. The Temple Mount and the Temple are the heart of the nation of Israel, and without a heart there is no body."

Rabbi Ben-Dahan added that the rebuilding of Jerusalem would not be complete until the Temple, too, is rebuilt and the Temple Mount redeemed."We are all here to declare that we have returned to Jerusalem and God-willing we will prepare the hearts of the people to return to the Temple Mount as well and to rebuild the Temple. We aren't embarrassed to say it: We want to rebuild the Temple on the Temple Mount."

MK Yehuda Glick, a notable Temple Mount activist, said the time had come to replace mourning with action. "For 2,000 years we lived out the verse in the Book of Lamentations 'you shall surely weep at night'. No more! We must stop weeping and start to take action.

The founders of the Zionist movement taught us that the Exile was not just a punishment but a sin as well. Today we are in a different place. Anyone who reads the Book of Lamentations cannot possibly think we are still there in that situation. We are not under siege and we are not isolated."

Rabbi Chaim Richman, International Director of the Temple Institute, declared: "Everyone that has ever attended a Jewish wedding knows that we break a glass, but how many internalize the message.

The broken glass isn't supposed to let guests know when to shout 'mazal tov', on the contrary it is a catalyst to move people into a new level of consciousness that fuses mourning with celebration - giving hope for a time in which we will finally rebuild the Holy Temple in Jerusalem.

Every single bridegroom announces the proclamation that he and his future household will not forget Jerusalem, because it is incumbent on everyone of us, at all times to prepare for the rebuilding of the Holy Temple. With the work of the Temple Institute over the last three decades, preparation for the Temple is no longer a dream, it's a reality, in which everyone can play a part".

In the run up to the annual commemoration of the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, the Temple Institute has released a video proposing the rebuilding of the third Temple. The video uses the metaphor of a glass, which is broken as part of the Jewish wedding ceremony, to signify that the celebration is incomplete so long as the Temple isn't rebuilt.

Despite the 2000-year-old fast and palpable longing for the Temple to be rebuilt on Judaism's holiest site on Mount Moriah, UNESCO and the EU are entertaining proposals to recognize it as a Muslim site, ignoring all of the above. Foreign Ministry Director General Dore Gold blasted the proposal, saying, it "deliberately ignores the historical connection between the Jewish people and their ancient capital".

It is told that the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte was walking down a street one night and saw a darkened synagogue lit by several candles and people lamenting while sitting on the floor.

Wondering what terrible catastrophe could have befallen them, he asked and was told they were mourning the destruction of their Holy Temple in Jerusalem. He was sure this was a recent tragedy and upon hearing that it had occurred almost two millennia earlier, is said to have remarked: "A people who mourns their Temple for thousands of years will also live to see it rebuilt."

COLOMBIA: CHURCH GROWTH FORBIDDEN

A violent guerilla group summoned nine Colombian pastors to attend a July 8 meeting after the pastors refused to pay “protection money” to their group as demanded.

On July 7, the National Liberation Army (ELN) sent a note ordering the group to attend the meeting. The note warned, “Everybody without fail has to be there. It’s urgent that you show up. Your presence is required.”Letter to Pastors

This is not the first time that the ELN has threatened the pastors. Four weeks ago, the group ordered each of the pastors to pay the equivalent of $700 dollars as protection money by June 14. Many believed the ELN might execute the pastors for refusing to pay the money.

INDIA: EARLY BIRTH AFTER ATTACK

A young woman required an emergency C-section after an April 15 attack by Hindu radicals on the Full Gospel Church. As believers worshipped that evening, members of the Bhagath Singh group rushed into the room and tried to stop the service. The Hindu radicals shouted at the pastor, cursed the Christians and told them they would be killed if they continued to pray.

When the Christians ignored them and continued to pray and sing, the radicals began attacking the crowd. In the scuffle, a 27-year-old pregnant woman, “Ahanti,” was shoved roughly to the ground. The conflict dissipated when the persecutors left and Ahanti was rushed to the hospital.

Ahanti was treated for pain and high-blood pressure. When she was still struggling with pain a week later, she returned to the doctor, who told her the baby was in critical condition. After an emergency C-section, Ahanti gave birth to a premature, but healthy, baby girl. Both mother and baby are doing well. The conflict between the church and the Bhagath Singh group began only recently. There are 80 families living in the village, and 15 of them are Christians. The village families have been working alongside each other for the past 30 years peaceably.

Persecution began just last month, when the Bhagath Singh group began to visit every day. The Bhagath Singh are a subsidiary of the RSS political movement, a Hindu group that advocates for an all-Hindu Indian nation. India’s current government has close ties to the RSS, and local Hindu radicals have been increasing their “purification” activities throughout India over the last several years. The Bhagath Singh told the believers in Ahanti’s village that the families needed to convert back to Hinduism. They threatened to exclude the families from community water, food or other benefits, including health care.

Muslim Woman Devotes Her Life to Helping Christians Displaced by ISIS

By Samuel Smith on August 07,2016

Many are familiar with "The Vicar of Baghdad," Canon Andrew White, the head of one of the most prominent relief charities helping thousands of Christians displaced by ISIS, but many don't know that much of the work White gets credit for is actually carried out by a Muslim woman.

Meet Dr. Sarah Ahmed, an Iraqi dentist who for the past few years has devoted her time to traveling all over Iraq to bring clothes, medicine, food, hygiene supplies and just about any other need imaginable to the Christians, Yazidis, Muslims, Shebeks and others who have been thrown from their homes, tortured and raped at the hands of the Islamic State.

"She is there protecting all of the Iraqi Christians. You never hear anything about it in the news but you hear about the work I am doing. The work that I am doing is being done by a Muslim caring for the Christians," White, the former chaplain of St. George's Church in Baghdad, asserted last December during a lunch visit in Washington. "We think and hear about Islamic terrorism all the time. What about Islamic people working for the protection of Christians?"

Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:11

Section 1 - The Old Testament

The Plagues

Before looking at the plagues individually, it’s worth highlighting a curious phenomenon at this point. I remember hearing of someone who had developed some kind of obsession with a 1970’s book/movie/album called Jonathan Livingston Seagull which was demonically inspired. When the demon that had gained a foothold in the person’s life through the music was being expelled and it began manifesting, the person took on the characteristics of a seagull. He began flapping and squawking like a bird. From this example and others, it appears that when human beings create an idol or god associated with something, a real demon is assigned to the position to become the object of their affections. So in a sense, the ‘god’ becomes real, but only in that it is a demonic entity.

This makes a certain amount of sense. When Lucifer was trying to get the angels to follow him in his rebellion, remember the motivation he gave them was that he would give them a higher position in his kingdom than they had in God’s. Lucifer told them he would give them a position whereby they would be worshipped as gods themselves and would have positions of power and prominence. These fallen angels who accepted his offer will therefore want to be worshipped like gods and it probably explains from a spiritual perspective why polytheism became rife. Behind each of the thousands, if not millions, of gods or goddesses are demons who want to be worshipped and so take on roles whereby men will venerate them. What this also tells us is that, in a sense, myth can be as powerful as fact. What I mean is, if someone creates a god or goddess out of thin air, a demon will legitimise it and make the myth real. I could create a bear god  called Bearus, create a mythological back story for him, set up an idol, worship it, and a demon will give that whole new Bearus religion a certain amount of power and reality.

Keep that in mind now as we look at the 10 plagues God sent upon the Egyptians to force them into letting his chosen people go. Because what we’ll find is that with each plague he was in fact taking the opportunity to show his authority over their demonic gods. For example the first plague that God visited upon the Egyptians was to turn the water of the Nile and indeed all the water in Egypt to blood. This was not some random whim, a magic trick to wow and amaze Pharaoh. It was a calculated sniper shot aimed directly at the Egyptian god of the Nile, Hapi. God was showing Egypt that their gods were powerless against him. But much more than this, the show of superiority was primarily for the benefit of the Jews. Still new in their relationship, God wanted to show them that they could trust him, that he really was the true God and that he had complete superiority over the Egyptian form of the Babylonian gods that they were surrounded with.

TEACHING: BREAKING BREAD AND DRINKING WINE (COMMUNION) – CAN WE BREAK BREAD AND DRINK WINE AT HOME REMEMBERING THE SACRIFICE OF THE LORD?

 THE LAST WORD: HOLINESS IS KEY IN COMMUNION:

     Just because that we conclude that communion can be given at home itself, it does not reduce the sanctity or importance of holiness in its observance.

     Everyone who takes part in communion has to be holy, according to the word of God. If someone participates un-holy, then he/she is liable to get punished with diseases or death.

     Let us take a look at the word of God in this regard:

     1 Corinthians 10:16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

     1 Corinthians 11:26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.

     1 Corinthians 11:27 [ Examine Yourself ] Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

     1 Corinthians 11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
          29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.

          30 For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.

THE LEGAL ADVICE:

     If you are not holy or you are not ready to forgive your brother or enemy, do not take communion. Before you participate in communion, reconcile with such persons and give up bitterness. Any sin has to be discontinued. Never do the mistake of taking communion while still committing sin(s), the apparent ones or the secret ones. Amen.

HOW TO GIVE COMMUNION?

     The Lord has clearly guided in Luke 22:19 and 20. You can follow that procedure.

     The following paragraph is meant for those who still need some guidance. Please remember that in the New Testament, everything has to be connected with the heart and not ritualism. So, this process should not become a ritual.

****

Begin:

     1) Begin with a prayer invoking the Holy Spirit to bless the communion service. Ask everyone to repent for sins and forgive the enemies. Let everyone sanctify himself/herself. Anyone in the family who is baptised can take the lead role.

     2) Read John 6:53-57 – to stress the importance of communion.

     3) Give one or two minutes to everyone to reflect on the sacrifice of the Lord on the Cross for everyone's sins.

     4) Read Luke 22:19

     5) After reading the above verse, let everyone eat the bread together – with reverence.

     6) Read Luke 22:20

     7) Now everyone shall take the grape juice together – with reverence.

Final prayers, thanking Jesus for giving Himself as a sacrifice for our sins.

END.

****

CONCLUSION:

     Now you know the truth about communion. Yes, you can administer communion right inside your house, everyday, every week or every month.

     Observe it with holiness.

     Remember the sacrifice of the Lord on the Cross for our sins. Be grateful to Jesus.

     Don’t stop at this. Observe the commandments of the Lord. Go out and preach gospel to the unsaved. Amen.

ISIS Training Children For Next Generation Of Terror

Children under the tyrannical rule of ISIS are being brainwashed and desensitized potentially to create a next generation of terrorists. The extremist group continues to swell its ranks with these youngsters by indoctrinating them into a world of hatred and violence in hopes of spreading aggression long after Iraqi and Syrian government forces topple their regime.  They are cultivating a culture of death.

As early as 2014, disturbing incidents of ISIS abducting children have been reported.

Whenever ISIS has taken control of a town, its brutal methodology has been to execute older men, force the females into sex slavery and intimidate young boys into joining "Cubs for the Caliphate" to be trained as Islamic State's future fighters.

Once in the grip of ISIS, children have their innocence and character stripped away while being force-fed the extremists' hard-line ideology.

Books for primary education are discarded and the pupils have only a Qur'an accompanied by instructional lessons about how to commit acts of terrorism including bomb making, beheading infidels and suicide attacks. The Cubs are given desensitization homework, such as bringing home Caucasian dolls dressed in orange jumpsuits to practice decapitation.

And, a report on terrorism in the European Union conducted by Europol points to these children as a "particular concern."

The eradication of ISIS as a geographical entity will only expand as its jihadists, adult and child, proliferate globally. Malik points out that no government has a significant strategy in place to deal with these children's mental and moral rehabilitation despite the fact that many countries have a legal responsibility to them.

This radicalized next generation of militants could very well be an end game of the Islamic State.

CHRISTIANS IN INDIA FACE INCREASING VIOLENCE

SEND VITAL SUPPORT TO OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO ARE UNDER ATTACK FOR THEIR FAITH IN CHRIST

SUPPORT COURAGEOUS BELIEVERS FACING VIOLENT PERSECUTION IN INDIA

Meena and Sunita. When they decided to follow Jesus, they were violently attacked by Hindu extremists from their village – Sunita was beaten unconscious. The prayers and support of people like you enabled Open Doors partners to pay for their medical bills and provide them with vital aid.But there are many others who need our support - hundreds of our brothers and sisters in India have been violently attacked for their faith just this year.

Will you give and pray today to help them not only survive, but stand strong?

Cobrapost exposes the RSS web of conversion of Christians in Assam

Although it did not make headlines, 31 poor tribal girls, all minors, from Assam brought to Delhi on June 11 last year have ended up in RSS-run schools in Gujarat and Punjab, as Cobrapost finds, which is part of a well-orchestrated conversion programme targeting children from poor minority communities to initiate them into Hinduism at a young age. Given the resources and reach the RSS and its sister organizations command, what Cobrapost investigation reveals may just be the tip of the iceberg.

 Massive increase in persecution against Christians in India

Persecution against Christians in India is increasing at an unprecedented rate but Christians are urging love and forgiveness for their Hindu neighbours, according to the charity Open Doors.

In 2015, Open Doors recorded 179 incidents of men, women and children being beaten by Hindu extremists. For the first quarter of 2016 alone, the charity recorded 132 such incidents.

Christian persecution has increased enormously in India since 2014, said Open Doors. According to Pastor Sundar Singh, Christianity is opposed because of a desire to make India a Hindu nation. 'Homecoming ceremonies' are held to celebrate the 'reconversion' of Christians back to Hinduism.

If Christians refuse to recant their faith, they are chased out of their villages and beaten up, he said.

"I prayed for the people who beat me."

She prayed: "God, please forgive them, because they don't know you."

Her sister Sunita's response embraced self-sacrifice for Christ. "I can die or I can witness. Make me a witness for you," she prayed. As she hid from her attackers in a goat shed, she says: "I prayed that God's will be done."

She and her sister were beaten so hard that five of the bamboo sticks broke.

However, in spite of the persecution, the Church in India is growing fast. Pastors emphasise the need to respond with love to the Hindus who persecute them.

Rising persecution in Punjab, India, alarms Christian community

On Wednesday 25 May, in the city of Jalandhar in India’s Punjab state, a Christian was severely beaten by eight Hindu extremists after he protested against Hindu desecration of a Christian graveyard. Even though a complaint was registered with the police on the day of incident, a First Information Report (FIR) was not registered until Monday 13 June.

Anoop Masih cannot afford the surgery and is fearful of malpractice because of the influence of local Hindu extremists over doctors in the area

Masih continues, “They hit me all over my body with many blows using their fists and legs, and then started to hit me in my private parts. One of them was wearing boots and his boot repeatedly hit one of my testicles so hard that I collapsed with the intensity of pain and I almost thought I’ll soon be dead.”Arif Chouhan (centre) said, ““In my 16 years of ministry as a Christian leader, I have not faced such opposition before”

Section 1 - The Old Testament

God’s Master plan

This is why God is thereafter regularly referred to as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. They are following this lineage and making it distinct from the lineage that came from his other son, Ishmael.

However, because Ishmael was also a child of Abraham, God promised that he would turn him into a great nation too. Ishmael is the first of the people group we now know as the Arabs. God said…

“Isaac is the son through whom your descendants will be counted. But I will also make a nation of the descendants of Hagar’s son because he is your son, too.” –Genesis 21:12-13

The rest of the Old Testament is basically the story of this nation that became known as Israel, this people group that became known as the Jews, and how they stood alone as God’s people in a world full of Mystery Babylon religion manifested as polytheism, sorcery and astrology. They were often persecuted, attacked, enslaved, driven out from their land but God revealed himself to them and through them to the world. They keep losing faith in him and God keeps showing them they can trust him. They turn their back on him and God chases after them.

As we move through the Old Testament years we will see evidence of this. Incidentally, the fact that Isaac replaced the first-born Ishmael as the favoured son is a spiritual root for the Arab’s hatred of the Jews. As descendants of Ishmael, the Islamic world retains the same bitterness and animosity towards Israel as  Ishmael had towards Isaac.

 
From Abraham to Moses As we fast forward from Abraham past Isaac and Jacob, we get to Jacob’s son Joseph and you will no doubt know his famous story. The youngest brother in the family, he was beaten and sold into slavery by his older brothers. Many years of slavery, false accusation and imprisonment later, he ended up in Egypt where he became second in command to Pharaoh. The Egyptian Prime Minister. He was later reconciled with his brothers and the whole family moved to Egypt to be with him there. It is while there in Egypt that the Jewish people really began to multiply.

The Bible describes it like this:

These are the names of the sons of Israel (Jacob) who went to Egypt with Jacob, each with his family: Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah; Issachar, Zebulun and Benjamin; Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher. The descendants of Jacob numbered seventy in all; Joseph was already in Egypt. Now Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died, but the Israelite were fruitful and multiplied greatly and became exceedingly numerous, so that the land was filled with them. Exodus 1:1-7

So just 70 went to Egypt but before long they were multiplying and filling the land. After some 400 years of multiplication the memory of Joseph and that generation disappeared and the Egyptian Pharaoh began to fear that the Jews were becoming too numerous. He regarded them as a threat to national security and imagined that if they were ever to make war against their hosts it would cause a big problem. From this paranoia he decided to oppress them with forced labour with the idea of keeping the numbers down. However they continued to multiply and prosper to such a degree that Pharaoh took more drastic action – enslaving them and subjugating them under Egyptian rule. Again to try and keep their numbers down he commanded that all Jewish boys be killed the moment they are born.

At this point, God stepped in by calling Moses to lead his people out of Egypt, through the desert, and into the freedom of a Promised Land flowing with milk and honey. Pharaoh, as you’ll know, dug his heels in and refused to let God’s people go. In response to this stubbornness, God sent 10 plagues. Now lest you think we were getting off track it is important to realize that these plagues were not arbitrary. They were in fact direct attacks on the false gods that had originated in Babylon.

Locust From The Book Of Revelation? Bizarre Winged Creature Stirs Controversy

I wasn't going to write about this.  I was trained as an attorney and I am skeptical by nature, and so I generally don't like to write about things that I can't prove.  But in the case of this bizarre winged creature, a couple of factors changed my mind. 

First of all, we actually have physical evidence which has been scientifically tested.  When it comes to things like this, people are always crying out for some real physical evidence, and now we have some. 

Of course the existence of evidence does not mean that we can necessarily find answers to all of our questions, but at least we have something to work with.  Secondly, a highly respected researcher named L.A. Marzulli has spent a great deal of time extensively investigating this case. 

I have personally interacted with L.A. Marzulli, and I have followed his work for years, and so I know how credible he is.

Earlier today, I visited L.A. Marzulli's blog, and I was astounded by what I saw.  There in living color was a bizarre winged creature that doesn't bear any resemblance to any animal that science currently knows about.

L.A. Marzulli did not personally discover this creature.  Rather, it was originally discovered on the side of a highway by a 13-year-old Mexican boy who didn't know what it was.  He ultimately turned it over to a well known Mexican investigative journalist named Jaime Maussan. 

Since that time this creature has been x-rayed, and the x-rays enabled researchers to see that the creature possessed a full skeletal structure.  The x-rays even showed that the creature's left leg had been broken at one point.  In addition, DNA testing was done, and the DNA did not match any known animal.

This amazing discovery is featured in L.A.'s new documentary entitled "Watchers 10", and a 9 minute clip featuring analysis of this creature has been posted to YouTube right here...

So the big question that we need to ask is this... What in the world is that thing?

At this point, there appear to be three main theories.

Many people are calling this winged creature a fairy.  These days a lot of people out there believe in "fairies", and YouTube is loaded with footage that people have supposedly captured of "fairies" flying around outside at high speed.  Videos are very easily doctored, and the hard evidence that these "fairies" exist has always seemed to be lacking. 

And this winged creature doesn't appear to fit the bill anyway.  This winged creature is certainly small, and it certainly does have wings, but it doesn't really fit the description of what you might expect a "fairy" to look like.  Instead, it looks quite gruesome and evil.  It has pointy ears like a gargoyle, and the body of the creature looks to me like it resembles an insect more than a person.

Secondly, some people are calling this winged creature an "alien".  But of course that label is almost instantly applied to any strange creature that pops up these days.

The most common form of "alien" that people encounter are known as "the greys", but there is only a slight resemblance between this creature and "the greys".  From what people have reported, "greys" don't have long pointy ears, they don't have wings, and they don't have tails.

Of course it is always possible that this creature could be another type of "alien" or demonic entity.  But I don't know we could conclusively prove that.

Thirdly, L.A. Marzulli and others have pointed out that this winged creature that was discovered in Mexico does seem to have some similarities to the "locusts" that are described in Revelation chapter 9.  The following is what Revelation 9:7-11 says in the Modern English Version...

7 The shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. On their heads were something like crowns of gold, and their faces were like faces of men. 8 They had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions. 9 They had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running to battle. 10 They had tails like scorpions and stings in their tails. Their power was to hurt men for five months. 11 They had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek his name is Apollyon.

Does this creature have a face like a man?

I think that you could say that.

I don't see any hair, but it is always possible that it could have had hair at one time.  I do see some frightening looking teeth, and it definitely has very prominent wings.

The detail that is most intriguing though is the stinger at the end of the tail.  On Marzulli's website, you can see a closeup of the tail and the stinger.  Obviously the stinger has a function, and at this point we can only speculate because we don't know enough about the creature.

Ultimately, there is always the possibility that this could be some sort of an elaborate hoax, but the scientific examinations that have been done so far have cast doubt on that explanation.  But I am certainly not willing to totally rule that out at this point either.

In the end, I don't know what that creature is.

I was highly intrigued when I saw it, and after thinking about it I decided to share this bit of news with all of you.

I would encourage you to look into this for yourself and come to your own conclusions.

If we are indeed living in the last days as described in the Bible, then our world is going to get very, very weird in the years ahead. 

The Book of Revelation describes all sorts of bizarre creatures and strange events, and the more I read it the more I am convinced that the period just before Jesus comes back is going to look a whole lot more like an extremely wild science fiction movie than most people would dare to imagine.

So yes, a strange winged creature that looks like something from another world may be hard to swallow, but this might just be the tip of the iceberg.

By the time it is all said and done, we could very well see things in the years ahead that will completely blow all of our minds.

Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:11

Section 1 - The Old Testament

God’s Master plan

So the whole Earth was starting to be overrun with polytheism and the idea of godhood was degraded in the minds of men. Time for some good news. God didn’t just sit back and let the whole thing spiral out of control. Instead, he set in motiona plan to reveal Himself to the world. And just as the beginning of the world began with one man in Adam and the beginning of the post flood world began in one man through Noah, the beginning of this plan of redemption began with another solitary figure called Abraham.

It was through Noah’s son Ham that Nimrod was born but it was through the lineage of another of his three sons, Shem, that we find Abraham’s lineage. The Lord called Abraham saying:

“Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father’s family, and go to the land that I will show you. I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be

blessed through you.” – Genesis 12:1-3

God goes on to say in Genesis 18:19…

“I have singled him out so that he will direct his sons and their families to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just.” – Genesis 18:19

God’s plan was to create a group of people – a nation - that would belong to him in the midst of a world that had fallen prey to the satanic mystery Babylon system. This nation would become Israel, these people would become known as the Jews, and through this single group, He would execute His stunning plan for the redemption of the world. He would reveal himself to them so that he could reveal himself through them to the rest of the world. The Old Testament is the story of how God revealed himself to them. It’s the story of God introducing himself to his people, teaching them his character, what he wants from them, how they should think of him and refer to him. Like most relationships, it has a lot of ups and downs along the way but the whole story has been faithfully recorded that the rest of us might also read about and know God for ourselves through their efforts and mistakes. Consequently, we can on that alone agree that all the families of the earth truly have been blessed through the Jews as promised (Gen 12:1-3). The culmination of God’s masterplan would be Jesus, the glorious Messiah prophesied about in Genesis 3; the one who would crush the serpent’s head. His death and resurrection was the decisive blow in the war with Satan but it all began with one faithful man; Abraham.

It wasn’t that Abraham was especially righteous. In fact, he had a pagan background like most other people. But God can use anyone for his purposes. In fact, inadequacy almost helps because it causes men to rely on God when they might otherwise be tempted to rely on themselves.

Abraham received the promise that he would be the beginning of a great nation when he was already around 75 years old. Sarah was barren and they were childless. Humanly speaking, what God was promising was impossible. Abraham’s faith faltered as he just couldn’t see how it would be possible for him to become the father of any child, let alone one that would be so important. Sarah suggested that they could force the issue in their own strength without God by having a son with their Egyptian slave girl Hagar instead. Abraham did this and the son was called Ishmael. However this child that had come about from their own human efforts was not the one God had promised. Instead, even later in life, Sarah eventually miraculously conceived. This ‘child of the promise’ was called Isaac and it was through him that the Jewish nation came to be. Isaac then had a son Jacob.

Dear Brothers / Sisters in Christ,

Greetings in the name of the Lord of hosts!

We know that India is standing on the threshold of a total liberation and is now going through an unprecedented, historical transformation which is absolutely navigated by the hands of God Almighty. In order to accelerate this, the Lord inspired a few of His children to start a “National Worship Centre”  in the spiritual capital Jerusalem of India, i.e. Chennai. The preparation for this could be traced back to the year 2010. Finally it is being fulfilled. All glory to God. The National Worship Centre Zion was opened on 13.4.2014 at

Section 1 - The Old Testament

Semiramis

The Scattering

As the people scattered outwards from Babylon and into the rest of the world the single, easily identifiable Mystery religion became different things in different places at different times. Marduk (Nimrod), Astarte (Semiramis) and Tammuz had already been given multiple names to represent different parts of their character and had then developed into distinct personalities as legends and myths cropped up around them. These distinct personalities were then assigned to various aspects of daily living. There was the god of war, god of the sea, the god of fertility and the sun god etc. Indeed a god or goddess for just about everything. So we already had perhaps hundreds of gods.

But because everyone now spoke a different language and they had moved to different regions, these gods and goddesses assumed different names depending on the location. In Greece, Astarte became known as Aphrodite, Athena and Demeter. In Egypt she becomes Isis. In Canaan she is Ishtar. In Ephesus she is Diana. In Israel she is Ashtoreth. The Phrygians know here as Cybele. In Phoenecia she is known as Europa. In Rome she is Ceres and Venus. As the goddess of Thelema she is Nuit, Tanuit or Anuit. In India she is Kali. So the gods multiplied and hundreds became thousands. It’s estimated that there are around 5000 different names altogether for the goddess stemming from Semiramis alone.

You will have heard of some of these names and others will be obscure. Names like Aphrodite and Venus are still widely known. Others like Demeter and Cybele are now mostly unheard of. Or on the male side, you will have heard of Apollo, Mars, Achilles or Poseidon but may perhaps be less familiar with Nebo or Nabul.
The names that are still well known tend to be the Greek or Roman forms, mainly because they had such great empires and as a result their mythologies were most widely spread, written about and preserved; so well preserved that they are still household names. There are shaving products named after Venus. We had NASA rocket ships called Apollo. We’ve had movies like Troy starring Brad Pitt as Achilles in which some of these muddled half truth stories and legends of heroes are depicted. The name Europa has even become the name of a whole continent. They all go back to just three people from Babylon – Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz.

You can see the common threads if you look for them. You will see recurring titles such as queen of heaven, the great mother, mother goddess or even Mother Nature.  You will see how it is just one woman under different names and that she has existed in all cultures and civilisations throughout history. You’ll also see how all those ancient mythologies contained family relationships and feuds, very often culminating in murder and incest.  You’ll see the recurring theme of Mother and Child cults that began with Semiramis and Tammuz. You’ll see these threads uniting even major religions of today like Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, Sikhism and Catholicism. You’ll discover in fact that all false religion sprang from the Mystery Babylon religion. And that is why they have these commonalities. Keeping track of all the routes the Babylonian religious system took however is impossible and also unnecessary. We don’t need to do in-depth analysis of how the Mysteries became Hinduism in India or Buddhism in the Far East for example.

We only need to focus on a few threads. Namely how the Mysteries spread from the Middle East into Europe. They key point at this stage however is to understand that all mythological systems and false religion can be traced back to just three people in Babylon. And behind their mystery religion, is Satan himself.

Southern California Time Bomb: San Andreas Fault Is 'Rising And Sinking'

If you reside on the west coast, you are living on borrowed time.  As you will see below, stress has been building up along the San Andreas fault for more than a century, and scientists tell us that southern California is way overdue for a major earthquake. 

When that stress is finally released, the U.S. Geological Survey says that we could be looking at hundreds of billions of dollars in damage.  If you follow my work regularly, then you already know that there has been unusual shaking all along the "Ring of Fire" so far in 2016. But thankfully the west coast of the United States has been spared from a major disaster up to this point.  Unfortunately, scientists assure us that it is only a matter of time before one strikes, and that is why it is so alarming that the ground surrounding the San Andreas fault has been "rising and sinking".  The following comes from the Los Angeles Times...

For the first time, scientists have produced a computer image showing huge sections of California rising and sinking around the San Andreas fault.

The vertical movement is the result of seismic strain that will be ultimately released in a large earthquake. And just last year the U.S. Geological Survey admitted that the probability of a "megaquake" along the west coast involving multiple faults at once was significantly greater than they had previously been projecting... A recent report by the U.S. Geological Survey shows the inevitability of just such a quake, which is predicted to hit within the next couple of decades.

"The new likelihoods are due to the inclusion of possible multi-fault ruptures, where earthquakes are no longer confined to separate, individual faults, but can occasionally rupture multiple faults simultaneously," lead author of the study and USGS scientist, Ned Field says. "This is a significant advancement in terms of representing a broader range of earthquakes throughout California's complex fault system." Back in May, the Los Angeles Times quoted the director of the Southern California Earthquake Center as saying that the San Andreas fault is "locked, loaded and ready to roll"...

The strike-slip earthquakes on the San Andreas Fault are a result of this plate motion. The plates are moving horizontally past one another, so California is not going to fall into the ocean. However, Los Angeles and San Francisco will one day be adjacent to one another!

Meanwhile, while we are talking about southern California, I just had to mention the record-breaking heatwave and the horrific wildfires that are plaguing the region this week.  In fact, two massive wildfires that have been raging out of control threaten to combine "into one super fire"...

Two new fires raging in California could soon merge, creating one 'super fire', as wild blazes continue to consume thousands of acres and have already force massive evacuations. Throughout the United States, firefighters are battling blazes of varying degrees in nine states, including California, New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska, Montana, Washington, Utah, Wyoming and Colorado. The most serious of these fires have been week-old blazes in California, New Mexico and Arizona, where scorching triple-digit temperatures have stoked the flames.Normally we don't see wildfires of this size and intensity until the late summer or early fall.

As I constantly remind my readers, last year was the worst year for wildfires in all of U.S. history, and so far this year we are more than a million acres ahead of the pace that was set last year.We live at a time when our planet is becoming increasingly unstable.  Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, wildfires, historic droughts and unusual flooding events all seem to be on the rise globally.So is there a reason why all of this is happening, or are we just going through a time when we are experiencing an astounding string of truly bizarre coincidences?

“In the day of great slaughter, when the towers fall, streams of water will flow on every high mountain and every lofty hill” (Is 30:25)

PROOF THE BIBLE IS TRUE
THE SOON COMING CLIMAX

     Will strange weather patterns begin to happen and increase? Yes.
     Will earthquakes, wind storms, and even tidal waves increase? Yes.
     Will alternate lifestyles increase and become acceptable? Yes.
     Will false prophets arise and deceive many? Yes.
     Will there be a one–world system or global economy? Yes.
     Will Russia, Iran, and some Arab nations invade Israel, and the USA become involved? Yes.
     Will all these things and many more begin happening “after” the rebirth of Israel as a nation? Yes.
     Were these things happening 75, or 100 years ago? No.

     Jesus said in Lk 12:54–57: When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is. And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass. Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time? Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right? 
     You may see a sign that says—THE BRIDGE IS OUT, and say, “Oh, someone is just trying to scare us.” The sign was meant to warn people of impending danger. God wants you to know, WHEN YOU SEE (the prophecies from the Bible), COME TO PASS, KNOW YE THAT THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NIGH AT HAND–ref Lk 21:31.

WHAT IS GOING ON?

     People have said the end was near many times—true. However, no prophecy of the latter days meant anything until Israel became a nation again? God’s Word indicates a generation would not pass from Israel’s rebirth, until all be fulfilled (which includes the Rapture, Tribulation, Armageddon, and Christ’s return). A generation can be 70+ years–Ps 90:10. Israel was reborn May 14, 1948. In addition, there would be over 360 prophecies that would come together after Israel’s rebirth. By Israel’s rebirth and the 360+ signs, we would know that the events of the Rapture, Tribulation, and return of Jesus were close. 
     Many have been preaching about the latter days (of the end times) in churches, on radio, TV, the Internet, books and magazines. Some include Billy Graham, Hal Lindsey, John Hagee, Charles Stanley, Jack Van Impe, Peter Lalonde, Tim LaHaye and Ed Hindson. Those that love God understand these things. For those that practice sin, no explanation is possible–ref Dan 12:4, 10; Mt 24:37, 39. 
     It has been said that it is impossible for anyone to make 11 straight predictions, 2000 years into the future. There is only one chance in 8 x 10 to the 63rd power, or 80 with 63 zeros after it that such a thing could be done. If such a set of predictions existed, it would have to be the Word of God.

     Could you write eleven straight predictions that would take place in the year 4000 A.D.? Include the rebirth of a specific nation. Include countries that would exist, nations that would be allied together, and the exact size of a nation’s army. Include what the people and church would be like and the names of actual cities that would exist. The Bible not only does this eleven times, but hundreds of times. If this is so, even the most skeptical person (that is truthful) would have to agree that there is indeed a God and the Bible is His Word. 2 Pe 1:20,21–KNOWING THIS FIRST, THAT NO PROPHECY OF THE SCRIPTURE IS OF ANY PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. 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. O FOOLS, AND SLOW OF HEART TO BELIEVE ALL THAT THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN–Lk 24:25. However, believing there is a God and acknowledging the Bible is His Word does not save a person. Let’s prove the Bible is true and we are nearing the end of the last generation before Christ returns.

1. The Jewish people would be scattered worldwide;yet Israel would become a nation againafter a long time and at a time the Bible calls the “latter days”–ref Isa 66:8; Mic 5:3; Ezek 38:8. Against what appeared to be impossible odds, this prophecy has been fulfilled. It happened on May 14, 1948 after about 2500 years. That’s 1 out of 1. Israel was destroyed in approximately 721 B.C. and Judah about 135 years later. The rebirth of Israel was the key sign, indicating we had entered a time period called the “latter days” of the end times. It was the beginning of a countdown leading to the Tribulation and culminating with the Battle of Armageddon and the return of Jesus. 

        2. Israel shall be brought forth in one day, at once–ref Isa 66:8. Prophecy fulfilled–May 14, 1948. On Nov. 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the U.N. approved a resolution calling for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. On the morning of May 14, 1948 (the last day of the British mandate), a meeting of the People’s Council took place in Israel to decide on the name and finalize the declaration. At precisely 4 PM, the proclamation ceremony began at the Tel Aviv museum. The 979 Hebrew words of the Scroll of Independence were read. All stood, and the scroll was adopted. The notorious White Paper, issued by the British in 1930 restricting Jewish immigration, was declared null and void. The People’s Council signed the proclamation. David Ben–Gurion rapped his gavel, declaring, “The State of Israel is established. This meeting is ended.” In one day, at once, as predicted—Israel was reborn. President Truman was swift in announcing U.S. recognition of Israel. The following morning, Israel was under attack by the Egyptian, Syrian, Lebanese, Jordanian, and Iraqi forces. 

        3. Israel would be brought forth (or reborn) “out of the nations.” The “United Nations” approved a resolution for a Jewish state in Palestine. Israel’s land had been occupied by many nations. Israel was “brought forth out of the nations.” 

        4. Israel must regain the city of Jerusalem–Joel 2:32; Isa 28:14; Ezek 22:19. This happened in 1967. That’s 4 out of 4. By Israel’s rebirth and a precise line of events that come together, we understand the times. We are not setting a date; but, it seems clear that we are in the generation of the Rapture and Tribulation that will come and catch most by surprise. 

        5. The 7th church age, which is the last one, before the Rapture, would be lukewarm, neither cold nor hot for Jesus. God will spew them out. The Bible tells us—you have acquired wealth, but your condition is wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked, and you don’t know it–Rev 3:14–22. Most use little Scripture and lots of stories. Most know more about their preacher than of Jesus. Many do not teach on the Revelation, sin, repentance, obedience, judgment, hell, fearing God, and baptism by immersion; yet God’s Word tells them to do so. Many sing a lot. Some are socializing centers that teach what their members want to hear. When you go to church—is your Bible left at home?

        The Bible gives app. 119 descriptions of what people would be like at the time of the end. These fit the people of today perfectly, but not the previous generation.
        6. Some would depart from the faith and go into devil worship–1 Tim 4:1. This is perfect. That is 6 out of 6. 
        7. People would mock about these days and not believe, just as people mocked about the flood coming–2 Pe 3:3; Jude 18. Are you one of them? 
        8. People would be lovers of themselves–2 Tim 3:1,2. Remember the TV commercials—"I do it for me"? Are people self–centered today?
        9. People would be disobeying their parents–2 Tim 3:1,2. 
        10. People would be grateful for nothing–2 Tim 3:1,2. 
        11. What we call alternate lifestyles would increase and prosper–Lk 17:28,30; ref Gen 19:5; Ro 1:24,26,27. 
        12. People would be without self–control in sex–2 Tim 3:1,2,6; Rev 9:21; Lk 17:28,30; Jude 7. 
        13. People would love pleasures more than God–2 Tim 3:1,2,4. Picnics, football, or sleep come first. Church?—we can go later. Our American motto "In God we trust" has become a joke. 
        14. People would be taking drugs–Rev 9:21. The Greek word for sorceries, in Rev 9:21, means pharmaceuticals or drugs. God’s Word is 100% right on every one. That’s 14 out of 14. Fifty years ago, many people didn’t lock their doors. There was little or no profanity on television, radio, or in the movies. Gum chewing was a main issue in public schools. Now it’s stealing, murder, weapons, bullies, suicide, drugs, and sex. This is the latter days. It’s going to get worse.

        15. There would be something that would enable people all over the world to see events as they happen. The hand–held devices that many use today, along with television and the Internet fulfill this prophecy–ref Rev 11:9,10. How could the Bible have foreseen such things?

The Scattering

When sinful perversion and wickedness took hold of the world the first time, God sent a flood to wipe the slate clean and started again. However, our study so far has shown that within just a few generations of the flood waters receding, wickedness was already re-establishing itself in the world with Babylon at its epicentre. It seems that as long as people are unified and left to their own devices, the result will always be a swift descent into degradation – the natural state of the unreformed human heart. God had already promised not to reset the world with a flood again and even if he did, it would only be a few generations before he would need to do it again.

CS Lewis put this well in Mere Christianity. "What Satan put into the heads of our remote ancestors was the idea that they could “be like gods”- could set up on their own as if they had created themselves- be their own masters- invent some sort of happiness for themselves outside God, apart from God. And out of that hopeless attempt has come nearly all that we call human history- money, poverty, ambition, war, prostitution, empires, classes, slavery- the long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy.

The reason why it can never succeed is this. God invented us as a man invents an engine. A car is made to run on Gasoline, and it would not run on anything else. Now God designed the human machine to run on Himself. He Himself is the fuel our spirits were designed to burn, or the food our spirits were designed to feed on. There is no other. That is why it is just no good asking God to make us happy in our own way without bothering about religion. God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.

That is the key to history. Terrific energy is expended- civilisations are built up-excellent institutions devised; but each time something goes wrong. Some fatal flaw always brings the selfish and cruel people to the top and it all slides back into misery and ruin. In fact, the machine conks. It seems to start up all right and runs a few yards, and then it breaks down. They are trying to run it on the wrong juice. That is what Satan has done to us humans."

To solve this problem, instead of wiping everything out and starting again every few generations, God had a far more subtle but long lasting solution. So long  st lasting that it is only now, in the 21 Century, that mankind has getting close to reversing it. He said:

 “Come, let’s go down and confuse the people with different languages. Then they won’t be able to understand each other”. – Genesis 11:7

The key to confounding the building of the Tower of Babel and the satanic agenda that it represented was to confuse their language – thus inhibiting them from working together. It brought confusion and eventually caused them to scatter, leaving their plans unfinished.

“In that way, the Lord scattered them all over the world…” – Genesis 11:8

Babel literally translates as “confusion” and it is the word through which we get ‘babble’ in English. But as the people scattered, they carried with them remnants of their mystery Babylon religion wherever they went. This religious system of muddled half-truths and inversions of the truth spread across the globe and it formed the well-spring for all subsequent false religion and endless mythological systems. And this is where the story gets trickier to follow.
