by LittleToe in

what resonates with you?every war, every famine or plague, almost every deathbed, is the monument to a petition that was not granted.. .

c. s. lewis, letters to malcolm: chiefly on prayer, a harvest/hbj book, 1963, 1964, p. 58..

CS Lewis was a Mason. I do however enjoy his philosophies. Especially, "The Four Loves."

Apostasy in the early church? NO

by greendawn in

having checked the history of the early church to the time of constantine, i find the claim that the church apostasized after the death of the last apostle around 100 ad as being grossly mistaken.

to cut a long story short it appears that those holding high ranks (ie the bishops) in the church did eventually become corrupted through lust for power and glory culminating in the unnatural union with the roman state but there never was a wilful corruption of doctrine and loss of divine grace as the jws claim in that period.

things with the r&f carried on much as under the apostles with some churches being spiritually strong and some weak.

Ianone

Part of my statement might seem confusing , let me clear it up.

As a Post Millenialist (Millenial Reign is Past) I believe we are in the time where Satan has been unleashed.

The Bible speaks of Satan being unleashed after the 1000 year reign of Christ. Satan controls this whole globe. The Banking cartel, drug cartel, academia, media, religion, you name it. It is all controlled. Hopefully a few ex jws can appreciate the fact that the Watchtower is correct in that all the world is Satanically contorolled. But the Watchtower is one of those Satanic instruments to undermine the Divinity of Christ and control people - the more important issue.

Pre Millenialism - believes that the 1000 year reign of Christ is future (these are usually Zionist and Dispensationalists)

Amillenialism - Does not believe there is a literal 1000 year reign of Christ but that the church age lasts a very long time while the world receives the gospel.

Post Millenialism - believes that the 1000 year reign , is literal, give or take a few hundred years, and was in the past , during the church age. (Post Millenialists are all Post Tribulation as well, that is believe that all the world, including Christians, go through the Satanic tribulation, as opposed to Pre Millenialists who believe in the rapture cult bologni, that they are magically whisked away before the tribulation.

Kid A, why you sportin the Masonic compass and protractor?

Green: I believe the apostasy started with the inception of Zionism in the early 1900s. Hal Lindsey, a false prophet on record, is one of the pioneers of of the unholy alliance of Christianity and Zionism.

As a Post Millenialist myself, we are at the time AFTER the 1000 year reign of Christ, which I believe to be the church age, where Satan is unleashed for a short time. It is during this short time that the apostasy grows and engulfs the world along with all the other false religions.

I believe Satan was unleashed during the 1700's with the birth of the Illuminatti in Bavaria. The Illuminatti since than has used front after front to attack and undermine Christ and His faithful. Be it Zionism, Cults, Freemasonry, Jesuits etc..., the apostasy is at the point of the "Strong Delusion."

Buckle your seatbelt.

the Noahide Laws call for the decapitation of idolators. Under Noahide Law #2, worship of Jesus is idolatry and worthy of the death penalty (Sanhedrin 57a, Babylonian Talmud).

Follow the Money Trail...sniff, sniff, sniff

by SWALKER in

i feel that so many wrongs of the wtbs have been outed especially with the internet age...such as u.n. scandal, child abuse scandal, wrongful dfing, etc.

where does all that money go, where is it kept, who has control over it?

Ianone

He obviously wasn't a Canadian genius.
