Two Ways
There are two ways: One
man looks at the group, at men, at the church, to
see if he is in the accepted stream and flow of
acceptability in the church.
The other person looks to
God alone, knowing Him, following Him alone,
hearing His Word, forsaking all for Him.
The Conflict of
Jesus Life
This was the conflict of
Jesus life with professed people of
God-with the scribes and rabbis, and even with
the multitudes. This is why they left him by the
thousands after He preached the sermon on the
Bread of Life. They could see that if they were
to follow Christ it would bring them into
conflict with the Structure and everything they
had ever espoused as giving them the security of
being the people of God.
The following of His
Father only was why He home-schooled, why
He refused to go to the Rabbinical schools. This
was why He was hauled in before the Sanhedrin in
John 5. This is why He said, I receive not
honor from men
How can ye believe, which
receive honor one of another, and seek not the
honor that cometh from God only? John 5:
41,44.
The
Chief Priests and Pharisees Believed That If
Jesus Were Left Alone the Romans Would Come and
Take Away Their Nation
This following of His
unseen Father alone is what took Him to the
cross, for He presented a national threat to the
existence of the nation, the High Priest
believed. In council, the chief priests and
Pharisees believed that if they left Jesus alone
to follow His Father only, the Romans would
destroy their nation:
If we let Him thus
alone, all men will believe on Him: and the
Romans shall come and take away both our place
and nation. John 11:48.
The Romans did come and
take away both their place and nation. However,
they did not do this because of acceptance of
Jesus. It happened because they rejected
Jesus.
Caiaphas: To Save the
Nation, Christ Must Be Put to Death
After hearing the counsel
of Caiaphas, the high priest stated:
It is expedient for
us, that one man should die for the people, and
that the whole nation perish not, from that
day, forth they took counsel together for to put
Him to death.
Jesus therefore
walked no more openly among the Jews, but went
thence unto a country near to the wilderness,
into a city called Ephraim, and there continued
with His disciples. John 11:50.53, 54.
Caiaphas
Argument Will Be Used to Pass the Death Decree
The same argument
will again be used against those who follow Jesus
alone instead of going with the ecumenical,
politically correct, flow.
As the Sabbath has
become the special point of controversy
throughout Christendom, and religious and secular
authorities have combined to enforce the
observance of Sunday, the persistent refusal of a
small minority to yield to the popular demand
will make them the objects of universal
execration. It will be urged that the few who
stand in opposition to the institution of the
church and a law of the state ought not be
tolerated; that it is better for them to suffer
than for whole nations to be thrown into
confusion and lawlessness. The same
argument eighteen hundred years ago who brought
against Christ by the rulers of the
people. It is evident for us,
said the wily Caiaphas, that one man should
die for the people, and that the whole nation
perish not. John 11:50. This
argument will appear conclusive; and the decree
will finally be issued against those who hallow
the Sabbath of the Fourth commandment, denouncing
them as deserving of the severest punishment and
giving the people liberty, after a certain time,
to put them to death. Romanism in the Old World
and apostate Protestantism in the New will pursue
a similar course toward those who honor all the
divine precepts. GC 615, 616.
Notice: It will be
considered a matter of national security.
Thou shalt hide
them in the secret of Thy face from the pride of
men. Psalms 31:20. [Hebrew
translation.]
Beware
of Church Fellowship That Rejects the Testimony
of Jesus in the Great Controversy
For many this
seduction of being accepted by the group, this
receiving honor from men, instead of bearing the
cross of unpopular truth involved in following
Christ alone in conviction is eagerly grasped as
being the evidence that they are among the
faithful. In addition, the Structure-a
Structure that has almost completely rejected the
orientation of the Great Controversy teaches them
this.
The
Structure Announces To Media That Only About
1,000 People Still Believe the Great Controversy.
This rejection of The
Great Controversy orientation goes right to
the highest echelons of the Structure, for a
Special Assistant to the GC President, Kermit
Netteberg, has declared that The Great
Controversy is for the nineteenth century,
and that everything is going to work out
differently now. At the time of the Waco
crisis, Herbert Ford, in Public Relations at the
GC, told the media that there are only about
1,000 people left who believe that the Great
Controversy prophecy will be fulfilled as Ellen
White wrote it.
He That is Not With Me
is Against Me
If a person truly loves
Jesus Christ, loves His wonderful testimony given
to Daniel, John the Revelator, and Ellen White, would
not such a person be horribly offended by the
rejection of Christ and His Testimony? Is
this not a key issue in end time salvation? Of
course it is. In fact, it is the key issue
in the Third Angels Message. You are on one
side or the other.
He that is not with
Me is against Me; and he that gathereth not with
Me scattereth abroad. Matthew 12:30.
Is the person
or the
Structurethat is not with Christ and His
Testimony, not against Him?
Moreover, we know the
danger of mingling with Egyptians when the
judgments of God are in the land. If one has
rejected the Testimony of Jesus in the Great
Controversy and Revelation, what becomes of the
Loud Cry, along with the Third Angels
Message? And which side of the Great controversy
is such a person on?
Only
those With Battle-hardened, Battle-tested
Conviction Will Stand the Shock of This Battle
Only those who believe
with heart and soul, only those with
battle-hardened, battle-tested conviction, will
survive the shock of this battle.
Cut Loose From Its
Moorings, Adrift Upon an Ecumenical Sea
The Structure has cut
loose from its moorings-cut loose from
Jesus teachings about the strait gate and
the narrow way, cut loose from the orientation of
the Bible, particularly the Testimony of Jesus in
Daniel and Revelation, the Spirit of Prophecy.
The Structure is now adrift on an ecumenical
sea-a sea whose current is swiftly pulling all on
its waters toward the Beast an Its Image. Its
captains and captains in training, its crew and
passengers are now being educated in Jesuit
Spiritual Formation.
If Satan attempted to
kill Ellen White before she could even write
the Great Controversy, what does he want
to do to those who read, believe, obey, and
accept that revelation of the Testimony of Jesus
Christ found in its pages?
Maintaining
the Orientation of the Word
Satans Great
Attempt to Exterminate The Vision of the Great
Controversy
It would be obvious that
Satans greatest attempt would be to exterminate
that vision that orientation, found in the pages
of the Great Controversy. Today, the conflict
over the vision, the orientation, of Testimony of
Jesus Christ, which He gave in Daniel,
Revelation, and the Great Controversy, is what
divides the faithful Christians from the
ecumenical Structurite.
The Erasure of
Protestant Memory Regarding Romes Character
and History
One of the greatest
phenomena of the last forty-five years is the
erasure of Protestant memory regarding Rome.
Today there is virtually no resistance to Rome
from Protestantism. Indeed, Protestantism is the
staunchest defender of Rome today. The
Evangelical/Roman Catholic Alliance is tighter
than ever today. What resistance there is
to Rome that remains is coming from the extreme
liberal, enlightenment sector of society.
The
Roman Catholic Renders Supreme Allegiance to the
Pope
Above the Constitution
The real concern about
Roman Catholicism on the Supreme Court is that
every Roman Catholic is required to render
supreme allegiance to the pope and his decrees
above all other allegiances including, and
especiallythe US Constitution. In addition,
the papacy is on record as denouncing liberty of
conscience and the Constitution.
The papal church
will never relinquish her claim to infallibility.
All that she has done in her persecution of those
who reject her dogmas she holds to be right; and
would she not repeat the same acts, should the
opportunity be presented? Let the restraints now
imposed by secular governments be removed and
Rome be reinstated in her former power, and there
would be speedily be a revival of her tyranny and
persecution. GC 564.
Semper
Idem-Always the Same
There appears to be no
Protestant memory remaining that the Roman
Catholic Church, whose motto is semper idem,
always the same, massacred an estimated 100
million souls in her history, according to
nineteenth century historians. There certainly
appears to be no Protestant memory of Romes
anathemas against the Unites States Constitution.
Nor is there any memory
of the fact that Hitler announced that he was
cloning the Jesuit Order with the SS, and that
Himmler, whom Hitler said was his Ignatius
Loyola, had an uncle in the SS who was a Jesuit
direct connection the Jesuit Superior General.
You can read about this in Vatican Assassins.
There appears to be no
Protestant memory of the Twentieth Century state
that Rome considered to be her perfect
creation-Croatia under the Ustashe, which
massacred three quarters of a million to a
million Serbs in the worst holocaust of World War
II.
Handing
the Nation to Rome: The Samuel Alito Hearings One
More Big Nail in the Coffin
A
judge may never oblige any person to perform an
act contrary to the law of God or of His Church
[read, the Catholic Church]
Wherefore he
cannot pronounce a penal sentence which would be
equivalent to approval of such a law.
Pope Pius XII, November. 6, 1949.
The Samuel Alito
Hearings
Today Protestants are
eagerly handing over the most powerful stations
in government, such as the Supreme Court, to
Rome. The staunchest defenders of this process
are the Republican, conservative evangelicals.
The confirmation hearings of the Roman Catholic
Samuel Alito were most interesting. Samuel Alito
is a devout Roman Catholic. He appears
personally to be a very conscientious person with
regard to his faith-conscientious to Rome to a
fault, and a very humble person also.
The Real Issue
The issue is that
America no longer perceives the danger of handing
over the keys of its power to Rome, for every
true Roman Catholic is a cats paw for the
papacy and its power to crush out freedom.
The problem is that,
according to Roman Catholic law, a Roman Catholic
judge is duty bound, where there is a conflict of
interest, to disregard state law and go with
Church Law. Furthermore, a Roman Catholic
Judge is duty-bound to impose Roman Catholic Law
on all citizenry of the district over which he
presides-in this case, the nation of America, now
that he is confirmed.
A Five to Four court
in Favor of Rome
Now that Samuel Alito is
confirmed to the Supreme Court, he will become
the fifth Roman Catholic Judge, putting Roman
Catholicism in the majority. Rome has worked to
have a majority on the Supreme Court for decades.
All across America in Roman Catholic centers,
there is great excitement, for that day is now
here.
The Supreme Court is the
ultimate determiner in law as to what the
Constitution means. This means that now that
Samuel Alito is confirmed, Rome now has a
majority on the Court to determine the
interpretation, the meaning, of the Constitution.
What About Religious
Liberty?
The concern of religious
liberty and liberty in general is what our focus
is here, not generally perceived ideas about
Samuel Alitos humility, brilliance, and
intellectual judicial ability.
In the superficial
senatorial questioning, it was apparent that
Samuel Alito buried his apparent answers in the
mystique of the judicial mental process. Over and
over again, he repeated himself as senators on
the extreme left explored enlightenment issues
with Alito.
No Questioning of
Alito On the Basis of the Concerns of
Protestantism
However, there was no
questioning on the basis of the concerns of
Protestantism-namely the Roman Catholic
judges supreme allegiance to the papacy,
and the pope, an office that has anathematized
the Constitution of the United States.
Pope Innocent III
Called Magna Carta A Diabolical
Document
Indeed, the papacy, which
swears that it never changes, attacked the
foundation of Western Law and Liberty, the Magna
Carta. It solemnly condemned it and forbade
all Christians to accept the principles it
embodied
Pope Innocent III, after having
called it a diabolical document,
pronounced the following:
In the name of God
Almighty, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and by
authority of the blessed apostles Peter and Paul,
after having taken counsel with our brothers, we
wholly reject and condemn this charter.
Innocent III, quoted in Avro Manhattan,
Vatican Imperialism in the Twentieth Century, p.
141.
Your Principles; Our
Principles
When we Catholics
are in a minority, we demand freedom in the name
of your principles; when we Catholics are in the
majority, we deny freedom in the name of our
principles. attributed to Louis
Veuillot, died 1883, quoted in Manhattan, 147.
Catholic Church
Denounced Doctrines of US Constitution As
Diabolical
The Catholic Church
denounced the doctrines of the American
Constitution as diabolical.
(Manhattan, 145). The Holy Inquisition, as
most effective instrument of the Catholic Church,
was put to work in an attempt to stamp out the
diabolical doctrines of North America democracy.
In Brazil the Constitution of the U.S.A. was put
on the prohibited reading list. Manhattan,
141.
In Spain, it was a crime
to possess a medallion inscribed with the words
American Liberty. Anyone caught
supporting the principles which set the United
States free was officially accused of
heretical ideas. Manhattan,
141.
A
Catholic Judge is Bound to Obey Church Law
Instead of State Law
Catholics Must Obey
Laws Enacted in Rome
The brilliant BBC author
Avro Manhattan writes, Catholics, having to
obey laws enacted in Rome, must act according to
such laws. Their enforcement is restricted
neither to religion nor to moral problems. It
trespasses across social boundaries. By raising
grave social issues, it clashes with the
individual faced with a double loyalty, with the
society charged with dealing with such laws, and
with the State, whose authority they challenge.
The contention
that, by binding only Catholic consciences, they
do not infringe upon those of the State is
erroneous, dishonest and untrue. The bind not
only individual Catholics as individuals, not
only Catholics as professional men-e.g. Doctors
forced to respect the precise laws laid down for
them by the Church-but also Catholics as
legislators, and hence as leaders of a party, of
a government and of a State.
Catholics Must
Disregard Laws of the State to Obey Laws of the
Church
This means
that Catholic laws must be obeyed by politicians
who are Catholics, be they town-councilors or
premiers, and that, because they are Catholics,
they must disregard the laws of the State to
obey those of their church.
When this occurs
the clash between the laws of the Church and
those of the State is neither restricted to the
theoretical field nor does it remain the concern
of the conscience of the individual Catholics. It
becomes a public concern: the concern of the
state, and hence the concern of the people. For
it is against the authority of the people that
the laws of the Church are enacted and
enforced
.
Loyalty to His Church
Replaces That Due to the State
Laws which
the individual, as a politician concerned with
the welfare of the people, judges to be worthy of
enactment, must be modified or even entirely
abandoned by this same individual, because the
Catholic Church frowns on or disapproves of them.
He is bound to scrap them because the Catholic
in him comes before the citizen. Which means that
loyalty to his church replaces that due to the
State. In short, that he must bow before the laws
of the Church by forsaking those of the State,
thus acting as a Catholic first and as a citizen
second. Avro Manhattan, Vatican
Imperialism in the Twentieth Century, Grand
Rapids: Zondervan, 1965, pp. 119, 120.
The
Papacys Position Regarding Roman Catholic
Judges
The Roman Catholic
Judge
The Catholic who is also
a magistrate or a judge, therefore, by obeying
his church first, becomes a disloyal citizen,
a treacherous magistrate, and a betrayer of trust
bestowed upon him by the state.
The Papacy Lays
Special Claim to Control of Juridical Activity
This is so because the
obligation applicable to all Catholics
blind obedience to their church as the ultimate
authority in faith and morals
is applicable equally to them. In addition to
which they must obey injunctions specifically
applicable to the juridical profession, insofar
as their church claims to be the ultimate
authority also in the juridical field, because juridical
activity remains included in fullness in
Churchs life, as Pope Pius XII
declared. [Pius XII, October. 1947].
A
Catholic Judge Must Apply the Laws of His Church
Upon the Citizens of the State
What is the meaning of
this? That the Catholic who is also a judge must
obey the laws of his church instead of those of
the State; must apply the laws of his
church upon the citizens of the State that
employs him as a judge to enforce the
States laws, not upon
citizens who are Catholics or members of any
other church, but upon citizens who are
subject only to the laws of the State and
not to the laws of any specific denomination.
Catholic
Judges are Compelled to Disregard the Laws of the
State in Obedience to the Church
One typical injection
whose concreteness is its most specific attribute
is the one compelling Catholic judges
all Catholic judges, it should be noted to
disregard the laws of the State in obedience to
those of the Catholic Church. Here is the
official Papal pronouncement:
A judge may
never oblige any person to perform an act
contrary to the law of God or of His Church
[read, the Catholic Church]
Wherefore he
cannot pronounce a penal sentence which would be
equivalent to approval of such a law.
Pope Pius XII, November. 6, 1949.
In other
words, Catholic judges, whether citizens of a
communist, democratic, Catholic,
Protestant, Orthodox, or even non-Christian
nation, are explicitly forbidden to obey the
laws of their country if such laws do not
harmonize with those of their church. Avro
Manhattan, Vatican Imperialism, 128.
The Dominance of
Political Correctness
Of course, the line of
questioning demanded by true Protestantism would
be politically incorrect, and would result in the
end of the political life of the questioner. Of
course, political correctness itself was the
child of Soviet communism, of Lenins
Minister of Education. In addition, Communism is
the product of Jesuitism, which developed it from
1600 to 1750 in Paraguay. Thus, Jesuitical
communism gave birth to political
correctness which today has silenced the
concerns of Protestantism and freedom.
