don't believe everything you read on the internet.
Maybe not, but you know freeinchrist, I have been reading a lot about the Pope and the Catholic church on the internet and as I said earlier, in the newspapers as well, and I have to agree with David and becauseHElives...

The more I learn about the Pope and the Catholic church, and the more disgusted I get...I am sorry, but that is the way I feel about this...

And now I wonder if I have been going against God's Will!...I have been making images with lyrics of Christian songs or verses for the past three years or so, including Jesus' image in them...is this wrong???...I certainly don't want to offend the Lord in any way!... [Frown]
On the contrary, I want to praise and honor Him!... [Prayer]


I have found a few interesting links about the subject if you are interested...here there are:


The Great Wh!ore

Roman Catholic Church
I don't know why this second link isn't working... [Confused]

so here is the text to it:


Jesus Christ, Yeshua THE Messiah, God the Son, The I AM, The Alpha & Omega, The Creator and Redeemer, The One Whose Name is called The Word of God, Inspired His chosen Apostle, by His Holy Spirit of Truth to tell us that - There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. AND ALL SCRIPTURE is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

These Next PROFOUND Words of the Lord Jesus Christ will either be understood by His Word being given understanding by His Holy Spirit of Truth, NOT some priest, NOT some bishop, NOT some prophet, NOT even by the pope - but understood ONLY by His Holy Spirit of Truth giving the understanding. If the understanding of this next profound verse of Scripture comes from any source other than His Holy Spirit of Truth, it it is certain you will be deceived and STRONGLY DELUDED. The importance of understanding this next verse, John 20:23, by The Holy Spirit of Truth, and NOT by any catechism, or even the Pope, will very probably mean the difference between heaven and hell. It will mark the difference between being one of The Lord's undeceived very elect, or being deceived by a religion that most likely will lead to hell. Yes, It is that important to understand by the Holy Spirit of Truth, and not by any man, not by any priest, any saint, any pope, or any catechism.

John 20:23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

The key to understanding this verse is found in verse 21 - As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you. How had the Father sent the Son into the world? To speak His own words? Jesus said - For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. Yeshua said again in John 12:49 - I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. And in John 8:28 He said - I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. In John 8:38 He said - I speak that which I have seen with my Father. And again in John 6:38 - For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

Clearly then, Jesus sent His disciples as the Father had sent Him. They were not to speak their own words, but His. Paul said that he was only an ambassador for Christ. An ambassador does not speak his own words, but the words of the one he represents. Now we will see in full context what Paul meant in that we are all called to be Christ’s ambassadors in 2 Cor 5:18-20. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

Please notice that, as an ambassador for Christ, one can carry only His Word to the people. And that word of reconciliation which He has given for the people is that their trespasses are not imputed to them. This is the only way anyone can remit sins. He can pass along what the Lord Jesus Christ said about forgiveness and assure them of acceptance as they meet the requirements of that word.

In John 20:23 we see our Lord give to the Apostles His work of public teaching. Now the Apostles were to teach the Doctrine of Christ, which is one and the same as the Doctrine of the Apostles. This was the main calling of the Apostles. Those Twelve men who had been taught directly by the Lord like Moses, were called and chosen to establish the Doctrine of Messiah. We certainly do NOT need new apostles with new doctrines. It is finished. We have the doctrine of Messiah, and that is the SAME as the Doctrine of the Apostles found in the New Testament of the KJV Holy bible. It is exactly as the Apostle Paul wrote to the first century Messianic Jewish believers - God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.

Yes, now, today, harden not your heart, for you MUST hear His voice by His Holy Spirit of TRUTH giving understanding of this most profound verse. You are encouraged NOW to pray directly to Jesus, the ONLY mediator between God and man. He will hear you. no matter what shape you are in, if you ask Him for Wisdom on this verse. He will hear that prayer, for wisdom, by His Holy Spirit of Truth on this most important scripture, if you will only now ask Jesus and by faith receive the TRUTH about John 20:23 by His Holy Spirit of Truth.

The words of the Lord regarding this commission of John 20.23, are very important and require close attention and study. The meaning of these words was the equipping of the ministers of the gospel with the gift of discerning of spirits. By this gift of the Holy Ghost, Paul could pronounce blindness upon Elimus the sorcerer, as surely as Peter could announce the immediate physical death of Annanias and Saphira for lying to the Holy Ghost.

Upon true Gospel ministers called and ordained by the Lord Jesus Christ is where we most often find this gift of discernment given by the Holy Ghost. To my knowledge this gift of discernment has NEVER in history been given to any Pope of Rome. If any pope of Rome ever had the gift of discernment, such a pope would IMMEDIATELY renounce the titles of Holy Father or Vicar of Christ applied to any man. Anyone who has that gift of discernment by the Holy Spirit of truth will KNOW that anyone who would dare to usurp such titles belonging to God the Father and the Holy Ghost, boarders on blasphemy.

It is by the Holy Spirit empowerment gift of discerning of spirits by which true Gospel ministers of the Lord Jesus Christ are enabled to declare authoritatively whose sins are forgiven and whose sins are not forgiven. To my knowledge NO pope has ever manifested evidence of this gift. However almost all of the popes have tried to usurp and wrest control of people by claiming, even exclusively, to have this gift.

Remember that Constantine was the first pope and NOT Peter as the scripture and any history outside of Vatican Roma's control and revision, will clearly show. The evidence of scripture and honest history outside of Vatican Roma's revision shows, that Peter was NOT the bishop of Rome. All of the scripture and historical evidence outside of Vatican Roma’s control, wresting, and revision, says Peter never set foot in Rome. Does the pope lie? Yes, ABSOLUTELY he does, when he claims to be the Holy Father, or the Vicar of Christ, or to have the EXCLUSIVE power of binding or loosing, remitting or retaining sins. That is one great big pope LIE.

Historically the popes have been antichrist usurpers, as they would dare to proclaim and profess themselves to be the mediator of between God and man. That is antichrist according to 1 Tim 2:5 - For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. The pope becomes antichrist when he would lead people to believe he holds that position exclusively, which Christ Himself holds exclusively. The pope in reality has absolutely no right to declare whose sins are forgiven, and whose sins are not forgiven. To my knowledge NO pope ever had such God given power to pronounce who was pardoned because they paid the pope's fee, paid the pope's homage, or Peter’s pence. Some popes maybe had power of force, maybe power of coercion, maybe power of priestcraft, but NONE had God given power to pronounce who is pardoned, and who is not. That requires discernment gifting of the Holy Spirit, which would have caused any pope with the gift to renounce such titles as Holy Father and Vicar of Christ by any mere man, pope or ortherwise.

The popes actually have been quite a contrast with the God ordained authority of the Jewish high priest before Christ, and TRUE Apostolic authority after Christ was manifested in the flesh to destroy the works of the devil. What is true Apostolic authority? Those having true Holy Spirit gifting of discernment have always understood true apostolic authority to mean true apostolic doctrine. True apostolic authority and true apostolic doctrine means the written Word of the Apostles, as it was contained in the Scriptures, in accord with the Old Testament, and given final revelation by the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, the very same I AM, who taught Moses.

Those with the discernment gifting of the Holy Spirit will always repudiate and reject the strange notion of the popes of Rome, that the Lord deputized the Apostles, or any other human beings, with God's the power of absolutely pardoning or not pardoning, absolving, or not absolving, the sins of anyone. It was not the pope’s holiness that was offended by the sin of any sinner. It is God’s holiness that is offended by the sin of any sinner. The true gift of discernment by the Holy Spirit is righteously indignant by such popery and priestcraft, and Nicolaitine spirit of control that Jesus said He HATES. (Rev 2:6 & 15)

The power of forgiving sins, in Scripture, is always spoken of as the special exclusive right of God. The popes are NOT God no matter how much the pope may like to have men think that the popes are God, or that popes can take the place of God. Even the Judean Jews, associated with the temple mount complex, themselves admitted this when they said, ‘Who can forgive sins but God only?’ (Mark 2:7). Yet, the popes continue to be more vain, more self-exalted, and more presumptuous, than the religious rulers who delivered Christ to be crucified on a Roman cross. It is monstrous to suppose that our Lord meant to overthrow or change this great principle that ONLY God can forgive sins, when He commissioned His disciples. Yet, this is the teaching that Vatican Roma demands all to believe or be exterminated by their inquisition powers. Vatican Roma's popes have held the leadership position in the religious murder of perhaps 50 MILLION saints, who would not bow to this monstrous popery and priestcraft, during the 600 years of the inquisition between 1203 and 1805.

The language of the Old Testament shows conclusively that the prophets were said to do certain things when they declared them to be done. Thus Jeremiah’s commission runs in these words - I have this day set thee over the nation and over the kingdom, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant in Jer. 1:10. This can only mean to declare the rooting out and pulling down - just like Ezekiel says I came to destroy the city in Ezek. 43:3.

There is not a single instance in the Acts or Epistles of an Apostle taking on himself to absolve, or pardon, any one. When Peter said to Cornelius Whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins in Acts 10:43, and when Paul said, Through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins in Acts 13:38, they pointed to Christ alone as the Remitter. Yes, Christ alone, not Peter, not Paul, and certainly not the pope.

John Calvin expressed this truth of the Word of God by saying - When Christ enjoins the apostles to forgive sins, He does not convey to them what is peculiar to Himself. It belongs to Him to forgive sins—He only enjoins them, in His name, to proclaim the forgiveness of sins.

We can recall the scripture account of Peter and John going down to Samaria to inspect and authorize the work done through Philip in Acts 8:14. There we find that Peter said to Simon Magus - I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and the bond of iniquity in Acts 8:23. Paul wrote - To whom ye forgive anything, I also: for if I forgave anything, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ - 2 Cor. 2:10. That is clear and certain evidence of the unique authority and power of the apostles was that spiritual gift of DISCERNMENT by the Holy Spirit.

Sadly to many the question remains - Was this ministerial office and commission conferred on the apostles by Christ transferred by them to others? Without any hesitation, men of God who KNOW the Word of God by the Spirit of Truth, will say that in the strictest sense the commission of the apostles was not transmitted, but, was confined to them, with Paul being the one the LORD chose to replace Judas. It really is difficult for me to understand how any one would deny that the Apostles possessed certain ministerial qualifications, which were quite peculiar to them. Such special gifting and calling they could not, and did not, transmit to others.

Those unique Twelve men who will have their names written on the twelve foundations of New Jerusalem had the gift of declaring the Gospel without error, and with infallible accuracy, to an extent that no one after them did. Regardless of what the pope may want to declare otherwise, if he believes he has such infallibility, he is DECEIVED. Those Twelve men confirmed their teaching by miracles. I can remember as far back as Pius XII. Though I have personally witnessed most miracles found in the bible, I have not seen the pope do any miracle. Those Twelve men had the empowerment of discerning of spirits, such as to pronounce death or physical blindness and see it IMMEDIATELY come to pass by the power of God, rather than the force of men. The popes only have demonstrated power to religiously murder 50 million people who would not bow to them. In the strictest sense there is no such thing as apostolic succession. The closest thing we have is among those who live according to the doctrine of the Apostles, which lifestyle Vatican Roma mocks.

The keys to the kingdom given to Peter, was SYMBOLIC in regard to locking or unlocking sins. It has always been, and can only be, by the Holy Spirit gifting of discernment. That is the only possible way of demonstrating his authority in binding or loosing according to Matt. 16:19. Later we see clearly in Matt. 18:18 that same power was given to the rest of the apostles AND to the church as a whole.

It is NOT an exclusive gift to any one person or church. Yet, many still question regarding how sins are forgiven, and what is the relationship to binding and loosing relating to the sins of sinners means. The only meaning given by the Scriptures it that whatsoever shall have been forgiven on earth shall have been forgiven in heaven. Heaven sets the standard, earth follows heaven's lead. It is the responsibility of believers to have a forgiving spirit, and to teach the conditions of forgiveness. Few words could show how serious is the REQUIREMENT that the believer MUST have a forgiving spirit like what the Lord said in Mat 6:12 - And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Most never think about what they are really asking for when they pray those words. If they did think about that perhaps they would better understand the Fear of the Lord.

In John 20:23 Jesus said - Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained. This means that the church is to proclaim the way of salvation and those who accept Him are forgiven, but those who reject Him are condemned. Binding and loosing as it relates to forgiveness of sins is the discernment gift of the Holy Spirit to discern and know the sinner's response. Sins have been washed, or loosed, ONLY by the blood of Jesus.

Grace be unto you, and peace, from Him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; And from Jesus Christ, who is THE faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood, to HIM ONLY be all praise honor and glory for the forgiveness of sins and redemption of sinners. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Alleluia Yeshua. Praise the Lord Jesus.

Rev 19:2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great ***** , which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.

There is another report dealing with What Is Behind Rome's Virgin. You may click the title to access it. What is Behind Rome's Virgin is probably just as important as the problems of papal infallibility and Lucifer's operations in the Vatican. However, the Virgin report may be too offensive for the Catholics who can not receive the truth of this first section. I was raised in a Catholic home. I have experiential knowledge of Roman Catholic faith and practice. Most of my relatives are Catholics. I most certainly DO NOT hate Catholics, but I have a greater love for the TRUTH. Yeshua, Jesus, is the TRUTH personified! My love for the TRUTH, Yeshua, makes all other loves pale by comparison. Unfortunately, the truth is often offensive.

The Pope is the visible head of the Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic Church is considered the largest church in the world. The pope is known as the Vicar of Christ, going back to the eighth century. This Vicar of Christ title replaced an earlier title known as the Vicar of Peter.

By tradition and not by truth, the Catholic Church declares that the Apostle Peter was the first pope of Rome, appointed by Messiah Himself. The Catholic Church would tell us that Peter was also martyred in Rome. The scripture they use to verify Peter, as being the first pope, is: "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." ( Matt. 16:18 )

During the time of Constantine, in about 306 AD, Christianity became the state religion of the Roman empire and the persecution ceased. Rome was now considered the headquarters for this new church which mixed and merged paganism with Christianity to form the Roman Catholic church. The Catholic church was now accepted and it's doctrines organized into that religion. Anyone who went against it was now persecuted as much as the Christians went through earlier.

The title Pontiff ( Pontifex Maximus - pagan title of high priest ) was first given officially to the pope, by Gratian in 375 AD. This title was exclusively used by the emperor of Rome before the religion was accepted by Rome as the state religion of the Roman Empire. Proof is overwhelming that the Pontifus Maximus title is of a pagan origin.

Boniface III, a.k.a. St. Boniface, accepted the title of pontiff, making himself the supreme ruler, of the church. He is considered as the first official pope of the Catholic church. All preceding bishops, except for Gregory the Great, in about 600, refused the title. Since then the title pontiff has been used for the bishop of Rome.

The First Vatican Council, in 1870, established the dogma of the infallibility of the pope. This change, and new church dogma, was necessary because of the confusion that occurred earlier in the church. Many of the popes held contradicting beliefs. This embarrassment needed to be fixed. The pope has in some ways, been considered infallible throughout the years, in his doctrines. A new specially formed exercise of papal infallibility was concocted. The "ex cathedra," meaning from the throne, was developed. The new 1870 "ex cathedra, from the throne," deal means that when the pope speaks from this, "ex cathedra," it is accepted by the church, and is not dependent on the consent of the church, and is irrefutable, and unchangeable. A very slick way of resolving the contradicting beliefs and pronouncements of the previous "infallible" popes. A lot of dirty laundry was covered with the "ex cathedra" deal.

Other characteristics that have evolved for the pope are that he wears a crown, and is always loaded with gold and jewels. That he eats alone, because he is considered too exalted to dine with any other person. Anyone who is in his presence while he eats, must be kneeling and remain so, unless invited to stand. When leaving his presence one must genuflect three times. When he visits other countries he will bend down and kiss the ground. This symbolizes ownership of the land, since he is considered the ruler of the whole earth when he receives three gold crowns with the statement, "Know that thou art the Father of Princes and Kings and viceroy of Jesus Christ to whom be honor and glory forever."

Is anyone interested in the Truth? Was Peter the first pope? Does the pope really have the powers he claims?

We ought to look at the Authorized KJV King Jesus Version Holy Bible for the answers to these questions.

"And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." (Matt 16:16-19)

In verse 16 Peter is answering the question Yeshua asked, "Who do you say that I am?" Which Peter answered by saying, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." Revealing the fact that Yeshua, Jesus, is the Messiah, the savior of the world. Did answering that question give him superiority over the rest of the Apostles? Peter was only acknowledging the fact that Yeshua is the Messiah to which the others concurred. Verse 17 shows that Yeshua was pleased with the confession that Peter spoke of concerning who He is, by giving him a blessing. True believers, who acknowledge Yeshua as Lord and Savior, and who follow His Word are always blessed by Messiah.

"Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock." ( Matt.7:24 )

"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only,..." ( James 1:22 )

It was God who revealed this truth, and not by Peter's own reasoning.

The Christian religion is a revealed religion through God and His Word by His Spirit. True Christian FAITH is not by mans of wit, reason, or philosophy, but by the light of inspiration that comes from God. The Christian gives God the glory, and not any man.

"For ye are brought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." ( 1 Cor. 6:20 )

Then in verse 18 Jesus calls him Peter signifying a stone, for the second time. The first time was in John 1:42, where Jesus called him Cephas, meaning stone. "Thou are Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone."

The truth is that Peter had no special authority or special place within the church, given him in Matt. 16:18. He is but a stone among others who are part of the church.

"Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit." (Eph 2:19-22)

The rock in which the church is to be built is Yeshua Himself. Yeshua says He will build the church, not Peter. Yeshua is the cornerstone that which no man can lay.

"For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Yeshua Messiah." ( 1 Cor. 3:11 )

"Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded." 1 Pet 2:6

Peter wrote 1 Pet. 2:6. Peter realized that he is not what the church is to be built upon. Peter clearly tells us Messiah is the foundation. Peter was infallible when he wrote 1 Pet. 2:16, but he was not the pope.

Matthew 16:18 is a scripture upon which many Roman Catholic false teachings are based. The Roman Catholic misunderstanding of - "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." - even forms the great international crime of "Biblicism" today. Matt 16:18 has been misunderstood by Catholics since the founding of Catholicism. One of the greatest false teachings of the Roman Catholic Church is Believing that Peter is to be the rock and not Jesus.

Peter is not the rock of salvation, nor is the Catholic church.

2 Sam 22:47 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.

The rock of your salvation better not be a stone. The rock of your salvation better not be the church, even the big Catholic church. The rock of your salvation better not be the sacraments. The rock of your salvation better not be the pope. The rock of your salvation better not be Peter, Cephas, a stone John 1:42. THE ONLY ROCK OF SALVATION IS YESHUA MESSIAH, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!

Jesus then promises that even the gates of hell shall not prevail against the church. We know that the church has enemies that will fight against it especially in these last days of great tribulation. Lucifer's kingdom forms the powers and policies to persecute the true Church of Yeshua Messiah.

What is Satan doing in the Vatican today?

Dark Dealings in the Vatican?
WILLIAM F. JASPER, The New American, March 3, 1997.

Although it passed completely without notice in the U.S. press; a bombshell that was dropped in Rome last November continues to send shockwaves that are being felt in political, and religious circles worldwide. The explosive charge was released by Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo in an address to the Fatima 2000 International Congress on World Peace held in Rome November 18th-23rd. Addressing an international audience of bishops, priests, nuns, and laity, the archbishop charged that there are members of the Catholic Church hierarchy in Rome who are secretly involved in formal satanic worship.
Commenting on the growth of evil in the world and the need for the Church to appoint more exorcists to aid the many people who are possessed, obsessed, or disturbed by demonic activity, the archbishop stated:
Now, the third dimension [of evil] is the most dangerous. It is subtle and the most terrible.... I could not believe when I discovered this third dimension of evil. The third dimension is people who follow instructions in satanic sects....
Now with this third dimension, I'm sorry to say, our Church belongs to it. I'm very sorry, I could not understand myself, and even now I don't understand. But the only consolation I have is that, well, Judas Iscariot was one. Together with Jesus three years, he never changed, then I understand that the third dimension of evil existed not only now, but it existed even then. Because nothing could change the heart of Judas Iscariot nothing.
Occultic Clergy
The Most Reverend Emmanuel Milingo, formerly the Archbishop of Lusaka, Zambia, now works in the Vatican as the Special Delegate to the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Immigrants and Itinerants. The archbishop, who is an official Church exorcist, is the author of Face to Face With the Devil and other books, and travels throughout the world preaching and healing. The outspoken cleric accused fellow Roman Catholic clergymen of protecting Satan and his minions: "The devil in the Catholic Church is so protected now that he is like an animal protected by the government; put on a game preserve that outlaws anyone, especially hunters, from trying to capture or kill it. The devil within the Church today is actually protected by certain Church authorities from the official devil-hunter in the Church the exorcist. So much so that the exorcist today is forbidden to attack the devil. The devil is so protected that the one who is the hunter, the exorcist, is forbidden to do his job." Understandably, shocking statements such as these from a Vatican "insider," a Prince of the Church, caused a commotion in the Italian press. Il Messaggero, the largest Rome daily, gave front-page headlines to the archbishop's accusations, as did many other major secular newspapers. Three days later the Zambian prelate held a press conference to clarify his remarks, causing a second wave of sensational media coverage. To the question, "Are there men of the curia who are followers of Satan?" Milingo responded, "Certainly there are priests and bishops. I stop at this level of ecclesiastical hierarchy because I am an archbishop, higher than this I cannot go." Il Tempo and other major dailies reported that Archbishop Milingo cited papal statements to back up his charges. "Paul VI said that the smoke of Satan had entered into the Vatican," the archbishop is quoted as saying, "but I have not heard that anyone has seen him leave. We must pray so that he will go away." The archbishop was referring to a 1972 statement by Pope Paul VI on the damage to the Catholic Church since the Second Vatican Council. Surveying that wreckage, the Pontiff stated: "From somewhere or other, the smoke of Satan has entered the temple of God."
Censorship and Suppression
Amazingly, nary a word of Archbishop Milingo's astonishing allegations made it into the American press. The U.S. media, ever attentive to the demands and fulminations of feminist nuns, apostate priests, prattling perverts, and heretical theologians, took a walk on this stunning story. It was not until mid-January, when copies of the Winter 1997 issue of The Fatima Crusader, a Catholic magazine, began arriving in mail boxes that the establishment media blackout was broken.
Published by the Servants of Jesus and Mary in Constable, New York, The Fatima Crusader is associated with the National Committee for the National Pilgrim Virgin of Canada, which sponsored the Fatima 2000 Congress in Rome. "Without a doubt, the single most electrifying moment of the Congress was Archbishop Milingo's startling assertion that satanism is being
practiced within the very walls of the Vatican," stated Father Nicholas Gruner, founder and publisher of The Fatima Crusader, in a letter accompanying the magazine. The Fatima Crusader added more fuel to the fire ignited by the archbishop with a statement from another Vatican "insider," Father Malachi Martin, a famous church historian and best-selling author. When questioned about Archbishop Milingo's statement, Father Martin replied: "Archbishop Milingo is a good bishop and his contention that there are satanists in Rome is completely correct. Anybody who is acquainted with the state of affairs in the Vatican in the last 35 years is well aware that the prince of darkness has had and still has his surrogates in the court of St. Peter in Rome." This confirmation from Father Martin is significant. As an exorcist, a former counselor and aide to Cardinal Augustin Bea, and a Vatican scholar of considerable renown, Father Martin is well qualified to comment on this subject. In Windswept House, his riveting novel published last year, Martin starkly portrays our world in the death grip of a monstrous, satanic cabal fast approaching the consummation of its insidious scheme for global dominion. In the opening pages of that book, Martin describes in frightful detail a demonic ceremony called "The Enthronement of the Fallen Archangel Lucifer," which allegedly was carried out secretly by a coven of Satanists including high-level Catholic clergymen on June 29, 1963 in the Chapel of St. Paul in Rome. According to the novel's account, the ritual conducted at the sacred site in the Vatican was a subdued ceremony disguised as a Catholic service, but through telephonic transmission was connected to and synchronized with a hideous, full-blown satanic service conducted in the United States. Martin had first made passing reference to the diabolical rite in his non-fiction 1990 best-seller, The Keys of This Blood. However, since publication of Windswept House, he has stated that the event has been documented. Contacted by THE NEW AMERICAN at his residence in New York, Dr. Martin confirmed that the "Enthronement of the Prince" did indeed occur as described in his novel. "Oh, yes, it is true; very much so," he said. "But the only way I could put that down into print is in novelistic form." "Are more members of the clergy becoming aware of this diabolical penetration?" we asked. "Yes," he replied, "they are beginning to scratch their heads and say that does explain things" such as the massive apostasy and dramatic decline in Catholic religious practice since the time of the "Enthronement" and the Second Vatican Council. And Archbishop Milingo? "He's merely like that actor in the movie Network, who got fed up and said 'I'm not going to take it anymore,"' said Dr. Martin. But clerics like the archbishop, he noted, end up "like those in the political realm who deviate from the Clinton point of view: you are marginalized, you're 'funny,' you're a madman, you are not 'mainstream."' Indeed, the outspoken archbishop appears to have been marginalized into near non-existence by the U.S. media. A Lexis/Nexis data search found not a single mention of his Fatima Congress statements, although several articles critical of him earlier in 1996 turned up. THE NEW AMERICAN called the Associated Press in New York.
After checking its database, a researcher at AP's international news desk informed us, "Oh, he's got a big old mouth" and is always spouting "a lot of insanity." The researcher could not be very specific, but she seemed to consider the archbishop's belief in the existence of Satan and belief in miracles as ironclad proof of his dementia. Still, we asserted, he is a bishop and a recognized exorcist. Does that alone not make his claims worthy of coverage? Well, we would have to call the Vatican AP bureau to find out why it wasn't covered, she informed us. At the AP's Vatican bureau we talked with reporter Dan Wakin, who repeated the generalized detractions and aspersions against the archbishop that we had already heard from his colleague in New York. Nevertheless, we insisted, why the total blackout in the U.S. press when the Italian media apparently thought him credible enough to devote considerable coverage to his charges on more than one occasion? Mr. Wakin had no answer. "We didn't cover it; that's all I can tell you," he replied.
Fiction or Fact?
Malachi Martin asserts that "there are more and more clerics who are finally saying what is apparent." No doubt, Dr. Martin's Windswept House has contributed greatly to that trend. Father Charles Fiore, in a review of the book in the Catholic Family News, describes it as "a novel in which actual persons and events are disguised as fiction." Windswept House is a gripping account that whirls from Rome to London, New York, Washington, DC, Brussels, Strasbourg, Jerusalem, Moscow, and other centers of worldly power, graphically drawing the organizational tentacles of a conspiracy against God and man which is perilously close to enthroning its malefic new world order. That unholy cabal has targeted for infiltration and destruction not just the Catholic Church, but other religions, institutions, and governments. Father Martin is not surprised that his latest book has not met the critical acclaim of his past writings. He is not surprised that it has been almost totally ignored, even though it is published by a mainstream publisher (Doubleday). The reviewers for the major media, he says, are "steering away from it. They don't know what to think about it; they don't know what to say." But that hasn't stopped Father Martin's message. He has been interviewed on 117 radio stations and continues to speak out. WILLIAM F. JASPER, The New American, March 3, 1997.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

2 Cor 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
2 Cor 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

"And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." This statement does not give superiority or security to any particular church. It does not say that the church will never err or be destroyed. It does, however,tell the true church of Yeshua Messiah, that in the main battle, it shall ultimately be more than a conqueror.

Mat 16:19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Here Yeshua tells us that He will give His true followers the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. The keys are doctrine and discipline. HEARING & DOING!

A disciple of Messiah is a disciplined one. He reads His Word. He HEARS His Word. He DOES His Word. All true disciples have the keys of doctrine and discipline. Their doctrine comes only from the scripture. Their lives are ordered only by the scripture. Their lives show what is acceptable to God and what is not acceptable to God, according to the scriptures.

Do we understanding the binding and loosing that Yeshua mentions here? Binding and loosing, in the common speech of the Jews at that time, deals with what is lawful and unlawful. To declare something was unlawful was to bind. To declare something was lawful was to loose. In all matters of binding and loosing, what is lawful or unlawful, the true disciple's ONLY guide is the written Word of God.

The purpose of the keys of doctrine and discipline, is to help the true disciple with his desire to be acceptable and pleasing to God. A true disciple of Yeshua wants please God rather than men. He knows that he has been redeemed. He wants to please God more than himself, because he has received and understands the love of God. He will be disciplined by the scriptures in word and deed. The Spiritual man will exercise the godly character of good and right judgment.

1 Cor 2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

Rom 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

The power of the keys makes it possible to discern that which should be in the church. The power of the keys of scriptural doctrine and discipline will reject that which is unrighteous from the church. These keys were not given to any particular church, but given to all who believe and live to make Yeshua BOTH Savior and Lord of their life.

The Bible also says nothing about Peter being in Rome. He ministered to the churches in Asia. (1 Pet 1:1) "Peter, an apostle of Yeshua Messiah, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia," His mission was to go spread the gospel in the opposite direction, which was in Asia-Minor. The historical and scriptural truth is that Peter never got close to Rome.

Paul also mentions in Gal 2:7-8, that he was appointed to the apostleship of the uncircumcision, (Gentiles),as Peter was the apostle to the circumcision, (Jews). We understand that they were equal in this, and neither was greater than the other.

In Acts 1:15 - 26 Peter did speak out about having someone to replace Judas, but did not have any authority to personally claim anyone as an Apostle. It was a group decision regarding who would replace Judas. Paul became an Apostle without Peter's consent. Paul makes no mention of Peter when he writes to Rome. If Peter was made to be the pontiff, and was in Rome, it would be a grievous error on Paul's part not to give Peter such recognition. If Peter were in Rome when Paul wrote to the church in Rome, we may be sure that Paul would have saluted him. Paul rebuked Peter, in Gal 2:11-14. Not even Paul would rebuke the pope, if Yeshua ever made Peter a pope. The truth is that Yeshua HATES the Nicolaitane spirit of control, hierarchy, clergy and laity. We are taught by Yeshua that greatness in His Kingdom is by being a servant to all. We are to submit to one another in the Fear of God. The Nicolaitane spirit behind popery, or any church hierarchy, is something that Yeshua HATES! (Rev 2:6&15) Peter never led, chaired, called, or dismissed any council. He did not rule, exercise lordship, or pronounce any decision. He never claimed any of the powers which the Catholic Church claims for the pope.

The term pope is a Greek word meaning "father." Yeshua says - "And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." (Matt 23:9) Call no man on earth father in the spiritual sense of the word. Why are Catholic priests called Father? It is a direct contradiction of a COMMAND of the Lord Yeshua. Calling the pope, Holy Father, is almost blasphemous if one were to really think what Holy Father means, as Yeshua taught His disciples. God is our spiritual Father, for He is the only one who is able to forgive our sins. Only His Spirit can and will convict us of our sins. We are made new creatures, part of the family of God, by the grace, and the finished work, of our Savior Yeshua the Messiah. The only true Holy Father is the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua. The Holy Father, pope title, is somewhere in the range from disgrace to blasphemy.

Right after Jesus told His disciples that His church is founded upon the belief and truth that He is the Messiah, the Son of the Living God, he told them about the suffering and death that He would soon endure. Peter tried to rebuke Jesus, saying that it should not happen. Yeshua replied in saying to Peter, "Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men." ( Mat 6:23 ). If Peter was to be pope, he showed an irresponsible attitude toward Yeshua by trying to rebuke Him. Then Yeshua called Peter, Satan. Peter was just a man. He was not the founder of Yeshua's church. Yeshua is the founder and foundation of His Church. The only foundation is Yeshua. The only way the church could be built is on Yeshua, and not Peter, or any other man, as foundation or head.

Peter wore no crown. He ate with other people, even Gentiles when the Jerusalem Jews were not around. He wore simple clothes and had no one kiss any ring on his hand. He never received any pomp or ceremony. He did not sell any indulgences or special dispensations. He held no special mass. He did not pray for the dead other than the Kaddish. He certainly did not consider himself to be a ruler or owner of this world. Peter was poor as we see in Acts 3:6 - "Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none;"

Peter would not take money, for what God could give freely.

And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostle's hand the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, Saying Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hand, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. Thou hast neither part nor lot in this manner: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God. Acts 8:18-21

Peter did not accept anyone to bow before him in reverence to him.

And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him. But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. Acts 10:25-26

Cornelius wanted to worship Peter. No way would Peter accept pope style worship from Cornelius or anyone else. He rebuked Cornelius for doing it. Totally the opposite of what we see today in the Catholic church regarding homage paid to the pope.

According to the Word of God, the pope has no special authority over the church. Yeshua HATES the Nicolaitane spirit behind popery. No church is made special or has unique authority in dealing with man's spiritual life. The only church with true spiritual power and authority is a church founded on Yeshua Messiah. If a man is the head of a church it can have no real true spiritual power and authority. Yeshua, and ONLY Yeshua, must be the head of any church for that church to have true spiritual power and authority. The Nicolaitane spirit behind popery is something Yeshua HATES. I can think of only two things to say to anyone caught up in a religion in which any man believes his word is better or even equivalent to the Word of God - Come out of her, and from such withdraw thyself.

The true church is made of those who have humbled themselves and receive Yeshua as their Saviour and Lord. Only Yeshua can be the head of any true church with true spiritual power and authority.

1 Tim 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Messiah Yeshua;


Rev 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Rev 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

The second beast is the great ***** apostate religious system which works with the antichrist political and economic system. The great ***** is an apostate religious system. The false prophet will be the head of the largest religious group in the world. He will lead people to worship the antichrist and take the mark of the beast. All who take the mark of the beast in their right hand or forehead will according to Rev 14:11 spend eternity in hell. And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.



1 Tim 6:3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
1 Tim 6:4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
1 Tim 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.



Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Roman Catholic Church, and really all of the cults, stands firmly AGAINST the Authority of the Word of God. The Roman Catholic Church is AGAINST Sacred Scripture being the sole criterion of truth. Their view of things is that their Pope, or Pastor Poohbah, or Prophet Soandso, or Rabbi Whatsname, rules the world of religion, their hierarchy having the highest authority, the and NOT what God said. This is typical of all cults such as Joseph Smith's Mormons, Mohammed's Muslims, and Russel's Jehovah's Witnesses. They will write their own holy books and/or stand AGAINST the AUTHORITY of the Word of God. Characteristic of cults is putting authority in their traditions, and their leader, and NOT The Lord Jesus Christ, whose name is called the Word of God.

Roman Catholics are trained to ASK THE BIG QUESTION. The big question is designed to proselytize into their black witchcraft religion, keep people bound in their religion, and justify the blindness of their failures, sins, departures, and opposition to the authority of the Word of God. The big question of the Roman Catholics is designed to put down all those outside of Rome's control, and reinforce Rome's control of those bound in that religion. Their Big Question is very effective because sadly, most simply are NOT READY TO GIVE AN ANSWER TO THE CATHOLIC'S BIG QUESTION. Recently a Roman Catholic asked the big question very succinctly of the GJiGT. Perhaps you may find the GJiGT answer to the Roman Catholic's BIG Question helpful as you would seek to set someone free from such religious bondage. I think you will be edified, strengthened, and encouraged if you thoughtfully and slowly hear how the Holy Spirit will speak to you through this string of scriptures in answer to the Roman Catholic’s big question.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Roman Catholic Asks -

If the Catholic church hierarchy is not from Christ's church and not the authority left by Christ to teach souls about Christ's warnings and teachings and instruction to salvation especially, the bible meaning and instruction, then who, or what is the teaching authority left by Christ to teach the meaning and instruction of the King James Bible?

If ten thousand people read the bible ten thousand interpretations will result. So again, who is the authority left by Christ to teach the truth given in the bible and explain its meaning for salvation?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GJiGT Reply to the Big Question of Authority -

Dear Friend -

The AUTHORITY is the Holy Sprit of TRUTH. There may be thousands of different interpretations among those Nicodemites, who do not have that Holy Spirit, who have not been born again. The Nicodemites indeed do have widely varied interpretations because they DO NOT have that One Same Spirit of TRUTH, the Sprrit of Messiah, because they have NOT been born again, or need to be born again, AGAIN.

John 3:35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.

John 4:25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you.

John 17:7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

John 17:8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

Acts 3:22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

Acts 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

Acts 13:40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;

Acts 13:41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.

Acts 24:14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:

Rom 11:36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

1 Cor 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

1 Cor 2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

1 Cor 6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

1 Cor 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

1 Cor 10:23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

God Who IS LOVE commends real love, NOT feigned affection, but real, genuine, love which:

1 Cor 13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

1 Cor 13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

2 Cor 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

2 Cor 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

2 Cor 12:19 Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.

Eph 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

Eph 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

Eph 1:12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

Eph 3:9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

Eph 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

Eph 3:11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

Eph 3:12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

Eph 4:15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

CHRIST IS THE HEAD - NOT PETER, Not Constantine, NOT THE POPE, Not Pastor Poohbah, Not Prophet Soandso, Not Rabbi Whatsname - CHRIST IS THE HEAD. ONLY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE HEAD. HE IS THE ONLY MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MAN

1 Tim 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Eph 5:13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

Eph 5:14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

1 Tim 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Eph 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Eph 5:21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

Phil 3:8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,

Phil 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Phil 3:10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

Phil 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

Col 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

Col 1:19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;

Col 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

2 Tim 2:7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

Titus 1:15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

Heb 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

Heb 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

Heb 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

Heb 2:10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Heb 2:11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

1 John 2:20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

John 3:4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

John 3:9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

John 3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

THE POPES HAVE ALL BEEN NICODEMITES SINCE THE FRIST ONE, CONSTANTINE, WHO WAS THE FIRST PONTIFUS MAXIMUS, SUPREME PONTIFF, HIGH PRIEST OF PAGANISM. ROMAN CATHOLICS WILL REMAIN NICODEMITES UNLESS THEY ARE BORN AGAIN. MOST WHEN THEY ARE BORN AGIAIN HEAR BY THE LORD'S HOLY SPIRIT Rev 18:4 AND COME OUT OF HER.

To those who are born again and hear His voice by His Holy Spirit the interpretation of the KJV Holy Bible is consistent and often will be found to disagree with the thousands of interpretations of the Nicodemites in the history of the black witchcraft religions of Babylonian sun god worship complete with its Queen of Heaven idolatry. For those who are born again and not Nicodemites, who KNOW what Israel means, we say:

1 John 2:20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

I AM GLAD for those who have an UNCTION and sad for those who want to continue as Nicodemites.

Shalom & Simcha,
Jim Searcy

Molestation of children by the priests of the Great Wh!ore Roman Catholic Church is not any thing made up by this “Onion”!

This kind of stuff and worse has been going on for centuries in the Papist” system.

Babies born in convents their bodies found buried in catacombs, young girls held prisoner by Priest for sexual pleasure and slavery .

The number of proven cases against molested children by Priest, Cardinals and the like and other atrocities are innumerable , being accepted by a man that claims he is Christ incarnate on the earth is absolutely nauseating .

There is nothing even slightly amusing about the Roman Catholic Wh!ore.

Wake up Church, expose the wickedness in high places.

Maybe if the Pope would reject the Wh!ore religion he is the head of, he would also see the words Yeshua spoke concerning children…..Mark 9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

The Pope is blaming the children for tempting the preist, how stupid can the Pope be!

This was the first time that I have come accross that site, I have never heard of it before, I was simply searching images on Google when I found this article...I had no idea that it was s satirical news site...

I have read in reliable newspapers from where I live that there are in fact priests that have done similar horrible things with children in the past and that it is even still happening in this present time!...so I thought that there might have been some truth there...

I am really hoping that this article is false...

I apologize if I have missleaded anyone, it was not my intention at all...

I am not sure if the article is true first of all ...don't believe everything you read on the internet. and if it is true ...God help us...Pope believes the kids seduced the preists. yeah right..let us all make sure the facts are facts before we all jump on the band wagon and talk bad about the Pope. i do have thoughts on the subject if it is true.but something about this article just doesn't add up. maybe ive been not paying attention with the news the past 6 months. but you would think if this was true it would be everywhere...my 2 cents.....

Pope Forgives Molested Children
May 22, 2002

......"Though grave and terrible sins have been committed, our Lord teaches us to turn the other cheek and forgive those who sin against us," said the pope, reading a prepared statement from a balcony overlooking St. Peter's Square. "That is why, despite the terrible wrongs they have committed, the church must move on and forgive these children for their misdeeds." ......


The entire article can be found here


The Lord teaches us to turn the other cheek, of course, but the Lord also said:

''But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. "Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to sin! Such things must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!''...Matthew 18:6,7


Didn't the pope make it sound like the little ones were the ones that molested the priests, and therefore they are the only ones guilty of sin?...Now the question is, who really started this???...
I am convinced that it was the other way around, because how can a 5 year old even think of doing such a thing with adult men?!?!...The kids should have been moved to safety in the first place...and the priests should have been put to jail for what they did with those children...they are adults and they know better, they know very well that what they were doing was wrong...


Would anyone share their opinion on this?...
