What Do They Believe-Muslims

Beginning: Islam is the religion of the Muslims. “Islam” means “submission”. “Muslim” means “people who submit”. It shares its beginnings with Judaism and Christianity through the ancestor Abraham. Islam appeared about 6 centuries after the death of Jesus as a correction to those other two dominant religions. Mohammad, (born- Abu al-Qasim Muhammad ibn ‘Abd Allah al-Hashimi al-Qurashi) was born AD 570. When 25 years old, after becoming dissatisfied with life of idol worship, withdrew to a cave, where he is supposed to have received “divine” revelation, by the angel Gabriel. These recorded words make up the Koran ( or Qur’an). Muslims believe Muhammad to be the last of more than 124,000 messengers.

He preached with very little success in his own Mecca for 13 years, then went to Medina, finding success. From Medina he led his believers to war against those in Mecca who wouldn’t hear him initially. By the time he died in AD 632, Muhammad controlled the Arabian Peninsula and had several thousand converts (at the edge of the sword). After his death, Islam’s leaders continued to press for forced conversions into Europe. Islam now dominates the Middle East, is prominent in Europe, and is growing in the West. Although it bills itself as a religion of peace, it became a powerful military and religious force, taking much land by conquest and forced conversion (a process shared by the Roman Catholic Church)

3 branches:

Sunni- (people of the tradition) the largest, more than 85% of all Muslims, often follow a secular government. More moderate in religious expression.
Four “Schools of Law”(Mahd’hab)- Hanafi, Maliki, Hanbali , Shafi’i

Shi’a- (party of Ali)- representing up to 10% of all Muslims, follow the leadership of imams whom they believe to be infallible (even though they don’t all teach exactly the same).
Three branches- majority (Twelvers) (Jafari) who believe in a succession of 12 infallible, divine, ordained imams, “Seveners” (Ismali) and “Fivers” (Zaidi)

Sufi- Sufism is known as "Islamic Mysticism," in which Muslims seek to find divine love and knowledge through direct personal experience of God. Mysticism is defined as the experience of mystical union or direct communion with ultimate reality, and the belief that direct knowledge of God, spiritual truth, or ultimate reality can be attained through subjective experience (as intuition or insight) Also known as dervishes. (A “whirling dervish” is one who dances in worship to Allah with spinning motion.)

View of Scripture: The Qu’ran, as above. Commentaries included in the Sunnah (tradition) used are the Hadith (narrative) and Sirah (journey). The Qu’ran affirms the biblical Torah, Psalms, and the Gospels, with the claim that the Jews and Christians corrupted the original texts.

View of God: He is self-existing, self-sufficient, and perfect. He is omnipotent & omniscient. He is also unique, incomparable, unknowable, and incomprehensible. He is worshiped as creator of everything and the giver of all revelation about himself. He has no begotten or birthed children.

He has 4 primary characteristics:
Rabb al alamin: creator, sustainer, nourisher.
Raman: most gracious- Allah is able to give people a pure nature that allows them to be free from sin.
Rahim: Ever merciful. He possesses the ability to bless the good efforts of people with good results.
Malik e Youm al-Din: Master of the Day of Requital. Allah alone is the dispenser of reward or punishment in the afterlife.

Islam teaches that Allah is the same God as worshiped by Jews and Christians, but is alone in the teaching that He is unknowable and demands submission to the religious laws of Islam.

View of Jesus: Called Isa, his Arabic name; born of a virgin, Mary, but as a miracle without a father. Isa performed miracles intended to affirm him as Allah’s prophet. They teach Isa (Jesus) could speak as a newborn. They deny Jesus was crucified on the cross, or that Jesus died for the sins of all people. After the end of his ministry, Jesus (Isa) returned to God fully alive, and not resurrected. Isa foretold the coming of Mohammad rather than the coming of the Holy Spirit. Isa will one day return and unite the world under the rule of Islam. Isa will rule for several decades and die peacefully in Medina, where he will be buried in a reserved grave next to Mohammad.

View on Salvation:
Sunni: Five pillars (or Duties) of faith:
Shahdah= profession of faith: ( Allah is God and Mohammad is his prophet)
Salat= prayers offered 5 times a day at precisely prescribed times, in Arabic facing Mecca,
Zakat= Almsgiving- Annual charity. Each Muslim is responsible for an annual gift of 2.5% of personal wealth, paid in gold or silver directly to an appointed person.
Sawm= Annual fast during Ramadan (celebrating the inauguration of the revelation of the Qu’ran to Mohammad) abstaining from food, drink, and sexual relations from sunrise to sunset.
Hajj= the annual pilgrimage to Mecca if physically and financially able.

Shi’a: Ten central practices: Shahdah,Salat, Zakat, Sawm, Khums-1/5th tax! Hajj. Also:
Jihad (Struggle)usually translated as “holy war” but it may refer to the Muslim’s struggle against the devil, or his own temptations as well as against infidels. Amr’-bil-ma’ruf= enjoining to do good. Nahi-ani-munkar= exhortation to desist from evil (repent). Tawalla= loving the Ahl al-Bayt “People of the House,”) designation in Islam for the holy family of the Prophet Muhammad, particularly his daughter Fātimah, her husband Alī (who was also Muhammad’s cousin), and their descendants. Tabarra= Disassociation from the enemies of the Ahl al-Bayt,

View on Death: Heaven is called Jannah, hell is called Jahannam. Heaven is a multilevel, blissful paradise garden populated with houris, maidens designed by Allah to give righteous men sexual pleasures.  Hell is also a multilevel (7) destination of fire, torment, and separation from Allah, guarded by nineteen guards. The lowest level of hell has a tree called Zaqqum, bearing thorny fruit the damned are made to eat. Muslims of low faith will go to hell for a while, but will eventually go to heaven (Islamic purgatory) Non-Muslims go to hell for ever.

Other beliefs: It was Ishmael and not Isaac that Abraham was to offer as sacrifice-receiving the blessing.

 THE RELIGION OF PEACE?

Now can we stop defending Muslims? Islam is the religion. Muslim means, one who is submissive to Islam. A "good" Muslim, submissive to Islam, by their own scriptures, is by definition a terrorist & murderer.

Koran 2:191        “Slay the unbelievers wherever you find them’”

Koran 3:28           “Muslims must not take the infidels as friends.”

Koran 3:85           “Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable.”

Koran 5:33           “Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam.”

Koran 8:12           “Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Koran.”

Koran 8:60           “Muslims must muster all weapons  to terrorize the infidels.”

Koran 8:65           “The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them.”

Koran 9:5             “When opportunity arises kill the infidels wherever you find them.”

Koran 9:30           “The Jews and Christians are perverts, fight them.”

Koran 9:123        “Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood.”

Koran 22:19        “Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skin and bellies.”

Koran 47:4           “Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them.”

From “THE ISLAMIC ANTICHRIST” by Joel Richardson. Pg. 144

Mawlana Sayid Abul Ala Mawdudi was an Islamic scholar from the Indian subcontinent. His sermons (khutbat) and writings are world renowned, and he is viewed throughout the Islamic world as one of Islam’s greatest scholars. Here is what he had to say about Islam and global domination.

he world, and Muslim nations are not like normal nations. Muslim nations are very special because they have a command from Alla to rule the entire world and to be over every nation in the world.”

Mawdudi explains Islam’s goals and purpose:

“Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destroy any government made by man. Islam doesn’t look for a nation to be in a better condition than another nation. Islam doesn’t care about the land or who owns the land. The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam. Any nation or power that gets in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy. In order to fulfill that goal, Islam can use every power available every way it can be used to bring worldwide revolution. This is Jihad.”Islam is not a normal religion like other religions in the world, and Muslim nations are not like normal nations.  Muslim nations are very special because they have a command from Allah to rule the world and to be over every nation in the world.”

Mawdudi explains Islam’s goals and purpose:

“Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destry any government made by man.  Islam doesn’t look for a nation to be in a better condition than another nation.  Islam doesn’t care about the land or who owns the land.  The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam.  Any nation or power that gets in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy.  In order to fulfill that goal, Islam can use every power available every way it can be used to bring worldwide revolution.  This is Jihad.”

Age of Marriage for females: 
The age of marriage in Islam for women varies with country. Traditionally, Islam has permitted marriage of girls below the age of 10, because Sharia considers practices of Muhammad, the Prophet, as a basis for Islamic law. According to Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, the two authentic hadiths, the Prophet married Aisha, his third wife when she was 6, and consummated the marriage before she reached the age of 10.^[148][149]

Narrated 'Aisha: that the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death).

—Sahih al-Bukhari, 7:62:64

From ENDTIME.comhttp://www.endtime.com/islam/

The Fourth Horse “The Green Horse”

The translators of the King James Version of the Bible used the word “pale” for the fourth horse, which is better translated “green” from the original Greek word, “chloros.” Green is the universally identifiable color of Islam.
“And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, …and with death.” Revelation 6:8   (1/4 of the earth- their expansion is quickly coming to an end!)
The USA Today reports that more than 1.6 billion people are Muslim. So, Islam is the green horse of death seen in Revelation 6:8, patrolling one-fourth of the earth.

The Mark of Islam: Death

The green horse is marked by death. Islam is associated around the world with the nearly 3,000 deaths in the 9/11 World Trade Center attacks, and the 18,000+ Muslim bombings around the world since that time, according to thereligionofpeace.com. It is the culture of death. Yet, Islam claims to be the “religion of peace.”
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran has repeatedly sworn Iran and Islam to the death and destruction of both Israel and the United States. He publicly pledges to “wipe Israel off the map.” Muslim leaders teach their followers that the most glorious path to paradise is martyrdom – death by killing others while performing the act of suicide. These are the times that bring out the best in some, and the worst in others.

Immigration Reform- Still on the Front Burner

Raising the Floor for American Workers
The Economic Benefits of Comprehensive Immigration Reform
by Dr. Raúl Hinojosa-Ojeda January 2010

The full article with accompanying charts/graphs and appendixes available for viewing at this site: http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2010/01/pdf/immigrationeconreport.pdf

Conclusion:
The experience of IRCA and the results of our modeling both indicate that legalizing currently
unauthorized immigrants and creating flexible legal limits on future immigration in
the context of full labor rights would raise wages, increase consumption, create jobs, and
generate additional tax revenue—particularly in those sectors of the U.S. economy now
characterized by the lowest wages. This is a compelling economic reason to move away
from the current “vicious cycle” where enforcement-only policies perpetuate unauthorized
migration and exert downward pressure on already-low wages, and toward a “virtuous
cycle” of worker-empowerment in which legal status and labor rights exert upward pressure
on wages.
Legalization of the nation’s unauthorized workers and new legal limits on immigration
that rise and fall with U.S. labor demand would help lay the foundation for robust, just,
and widespread economic growth. Moving unauthorized workers out of a vulnerable
underground status strengthens all working families’ ability to become more productive
and creates higher levels of job-generating consumption, thereby laying a foundation for
long-term community revitalization, middle-class growth, and a stronger, more equitable
national economy.

What Do They Believe-Roman Catholics

Beginning: Catholics consider Peter the 1^st pope. (Gal.2:6-8) Gregory the Great (pope 540-604 instituted Roman Bishop supremacy over all other bishops. Actually the RCC was born out of the Council of Nicea 325 AD, under the guidance of Roman Emperor Constantine who was Supreme Pontiff of the Babylonian religion.

How Rome Became Mystery Babylon (Great Whore & Mother of Harlots Rev.17:1-5)
Clarence Larkin’s classic commentary, The Book of Revelation (© 1918 Rev. Clarence Larkin Estate; p. 151-152), explains how the Caesars and Popes obtained the title and headship of the “Babylonian Priesthood” mysteries which Hislop’s book also explains. A brief history is required as to how Rome obtained this title. So, the seat of Satan was Babylon, but it was defeated by Media-Persia whose capitol was Pergamos. The Persians brought the Babylonian priesthood and rites to their capitol.

Quoting Mr. Larkin: “When Attalus, the Pontiff and King of Pergamos, died B.C. 133, he bequeathed the Headship of the Babylonian Priesthood to Rome. When the Etruscans came to Italy from Lydia (The region of Pergamos), they brought with them the Babylonian religion and rites. They set up a Pontiff who was head of the Priesthood. Later the Romans accepted this Pontiff as their civil ruler. Julius Caesar was made Pontiff of the Etruscan Order in B.C. 74. In B. C. 63, he was made Supreme Pontiff of the “Babylonian Order,” thus becoming heir to the rights an title of Attalus, Pontiff of Pergamos…Thus the first Roman Emperor become head of the “Babylonian Priesthood” and Rome the successor of Babylon (p. 151-152).”

View of Scripture: Scriptures teach without error the truth needed for salvation, but must be interpreted within the traditions of the church. (Col.2:8-9) They include the Apocrypha in their bible.

“We confess that the Pope has power of changing Scripture and of adding to it, and taking from it, according to his will.” — Roman Catholic Confessions for Protestants Oath, Article XI, (Confessio Romano-Catholica in Hungaria Evangelicis publice praescripta te proposita, editi a Streitwolf)

Read: Deut.12:30-32 & Rev. 22:18-19

View of God: Existing eternally as the trinity. This is a continuation of the old Babylonian religion which worshipped the trinity Nimrod- Semiramis, later deemed the Queen of Heaven (Jerem.44:15-19)- and Tammuz (the son of god)

Please read "Athanasius Creed" post from the links column on the right.

Human Deity of the Pope-

“We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God....dissolves, not by human but rather by divine authority....I am in all and above all, so that God Himself and I, the vicar of God, hath both one consistory, and I am able to do almost all that God can do...Wherefore, no marvel, if it be in my power to dispense with all things, yea with the precepts of Christ.” — Decretales Domini Gregori ix Translatione Episcoporum, (on the Transference of Bishops), title 7, chapter 3; Corpus Juris Canonice (2nd Leipzig ed., 1881), col. 99; (Paris, 1612), tom. 2, Decretales, col. 205 (while Innocent III was Pope).

 
View on Jesus: The eternal Son, born of the virgin Mary, died on the cross, was buried and rose again the 3^rd day, ascended into heaven, and will return in glory to judge us all. They view Jesus as Mary’s only child. (Matt.13:55-56) Not found in church writings before 325AD. (Reinforcing the Babylonian trinity)

View on Salvation: Adherence to Roman Catholic Doctrine, submission to the pope and the church, which have authority to alter biblical doctrine. (Deut.12:32) Athanasius Creed=trinity.

“When we say that faith is necessary for the remission of sins, we mean to speak of the Catholic faith, not heretical faith. Without the habit of this faith, no man is justified.” — St. Alphonsus Maria Liguori, (quoted in Apostolic Digest, by Michael Malone, Book 3: “The Book of Faith”, Chapter 1, “There is No Salvation Except in the Catholic Faith”).

“The Pope is of great authority and power, that he is able to modify, declare, or interpret even divine laws. The Pope can modify divine law, since his power is not of man, but of God, and he acts as vicegerent of God upon earth...” — Lucius Ferraris, in “Prompta Bibliotheca Canonica, Juridica, Moralis, Theologica, Ascetica, Polemica, Rubristica, Historica”, Volume V, article on “Papa, Article II”, titled “Concerning the extent of Papal dignity, authority, or dominion and infallibility”, #30, published in Petit-Montrouge (Paris) by J. P. Migne, 1858 edition.

View on Death: The souls of the faithful go to heaven either immediately or, if imperfectly purified in this life, after purgatory (Heb.10:10-14). The souls of the wicked at death go immediately to everlasting hell fire. (no white throne judgment)

View on the Church: The Mystical Body of Christ, established by Christ with the bishop of Rome (the pope), who may at times pronounce dogma (doctrine required of all members) infallibly, as its earthly head. Christians not in communion with the Catholic Church are called “separated brethren”.

Sacraments: 7-1. Reconciliation (also known as the Sacrament of Penance, or Penance and Reconciliation) has three elements: conversion, confession and celebration; 2. Baptism- usually as an infant, in trinity formula only; 3. Eucharist- communion with transubstantiation. 4. Confirmation-a sacrament of initiation; 5. Marriage; 6. Holy Order - or ordination; 7. Anointing of the Sick- formerly known as Last Rites or Extreme Unction, is a ritual of healing appropriate not only for physical but also for mental and spiritual sickness.

Other Beliefs: Celibate priesthood (1 Tim.4:1-3, Gen.2:18a), rosary bead prayers (not original to RCC),

Dogma of the Immaculate Conception, of Pope Pius IX, Dec.8, 1854: Let all the children of the Catholic Church, who are so very dear to us, hear these words of ours. With a still more ardent zeal for piety, religion, and love, let them continue to venerate, invoke and pray to the most Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, conceived without original sin. Let them fly with utter confidence to the most sweet Mother of mercy and grace in all dangers, difficulties, needs, doubts and fears. Under her guidance, under her patronage, under her kindness and protection, nothing is to be feared; nothing is hopeless. Because, while bearing toward us a truly motherly affection and having in her care the work of our salvation, she is solicitous about the whole human race. And since She has been appointed by God to be the Queen of heaven and earth, and is exalted above all the choirs of angels and saints, and even stands at the right hand of her only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, she presents our petitions in a most efficacious manner. What she asks, she obtains. Her pleas can never be unheard.—Utter blasphemy!

The Assumption of Mary- In 1950, in the Apostolic Constitution, Pope Pius XII proclaimed the Assumption of Mary a dogma of the Catholic Church in these words: "The Immaculate Mother of God, the ever-virgin Mary, having completed the course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heaven."

Rev.17: 6. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

Alexander Campbell, well known religions leader of the nineteenth century, stated in debate with John B. Purcell, Bishop of Cincinnati, in 1837 that the records of historians and martyrologists show that it may be reasonable to estimate that from fifty to sixty-eight millions of human beings died, suffered torture, lost their possessions, or were otherwise devoured by the Roman Catholic Church during the awful years of the Inquisition. Bishop Purcell made little effort to refute these figures. (Citing A Debate on the Roman Catholic Religion, Christian Publishing Co., 1837, p. 327.)

What Do They Believe? Jehovah's Witnesses

Burial site at Masonic cemetary for Charles Russell Taze

Beginning: From Bryan McAnally’s “Indispensible Guide to Practically Everything”: “In 1870, Russell was influenced by a teaching that Christ would return in 1874. After that date passed uneventfully, Russell believed his new understanding of Christianity corrected many common errors. He believed that Jesus had in fact returned invisibly in 1874 and had begun to usher in a new age of his reign that would culminate in 1914.”
 

His theology was greatly influenced by his Masonry teaching, and he wrote prolifically about his new enlightened understandings.

His writings became “Zion’s Watchtower Society” and his subscribers formed a religion based on his teachings, electing Taze pastor. Taze died in 1916. Jehovah’s Witness formed in 1931 under the leadership of Joseph Franklin Rutherford, based on the writings Charles Russell Taze.

View of Scripture: “Russell published 6 books between 1886 and 1906 as part of his studies in the Scripture series: The Divine Plan of the Ages, The Time is at Hand, Thy Kingdom Come, The Day of Vengeance, The Atonement Between God and Men, The New Creation. The Finished Mystery was published after his death in 1917. In1950, the Watchtower Society released The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures as the authoritative translation of the Bible and the official version for Jehovah’s Witnesses. Ex: In [the] beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god. The New World Translation

View of God: “Russell taught that God is Father to all humankind, but not Father to Jesus as understood by mainline Christianity” God is NOT omnipresent, but uses his Holy Spirit to accomplish his work. The Holy Spirit has the ability to go anywhere. (Not everywhere at the same time.)

 

View of Jesus: Jesus was Michael the archangel until he decided to go to earth to pay the penalty for sin, then his name was changed to Jesus. Jesus (Micheal) was the beginning of the creation of God, the express image of the invisible God, and was the instrument by which all things were created. He was born of the virgin, Mary, lived a perfect life, and was tortured and killed to pay the price for the offences of all people throughout human history. He was resurrected, ascended to heaven and will return one day to establish God’s kingdom on the earth. 

They teach Jesus did return invisibly in 1914 and was enthroned as King of heaven. In 1918 Jesus began to resurrect from among the dead those from the 144,000 people who would join him in heaven. 

Despite Christ’s reign, Jesus is still considered inferior to and completely distinct from Jehovah God. (Error- rather Jesus is an extension of God’s revelation of Himself to His creation. Jesus is the visible expression of the one true God. In other words. Jesus is that one true God’s expression.)

View on Salvation: All other Christian religions were in error, and his group had exclusive insight into correct biblical interpretation. Only faithful, members of the Jehovah’s Witnesses will either live with Jesus in heaven (only 144,000) or eternally in an earthly paradise, all mandates of the church must be strictly observed- extremely legalistic. Salvation by works i.e.: door-to-door knocking campaigning, forbidden from receiving blood transfusions, forbidden from celebrating national holidays, birthdays and anniversaries. You cannot worship Jesus as God. You must call God “Jehovah”. Also forbidden: singing the National Anthem, saluting the flag, pledging allegiance to the flag, voting, or serving in the military. Failure to comply equals being disfellowshipped- without hope of heaven or an earthly paradise.

View on Death: At death, since they believe there is no difference in body and soul, all dead will lie in burial without consciousness, saint or sinner, until the final resurrection. Jehovah’s love for his creation won’t allow him to torture people forever in a lake of fire, so non-believers will simply be annihilated. The 144,000 will rule with Christ for 1000 yrs, then from heaven for eternity. The rest of the faithful will inherit the earthly paradise. Those not having chosen the Jehovah’s Witness faith will be given one last opportunity to accept it. Those who refuse will just cease to exist. No eternal judgment except annihilation. JW’s take no authoritative stance on the death of infants, children and mentally impaired.

View of the Church: Only faithful JW’s make up the true church. All others have been deceived, but there is yet hope for them.

 

Sacraments: Two. 1) Baptism-by immersion using the trinity formula of Matt.28:19 Baptisms are a regular feature of annual assemblies and conventions held by Jehovah’s Witnesses. They must study Watchtower books at least six months before they can be baptized; Before baptism, one must answer over 80 Bible questions with Scripture references in front of a panel of elders 2) The Lords Supper- Only the 144,000 may partake of the bread and wine, everyone is invited to the meal apart from the bread and wine.

Other Beliefs: God only speaks through the "Governing Body" in Brooklyn, New York

They must appear before a Judicial Committee if they are caught breaking Watchtower rules (Secret files are kept on all members which record these meetings-these files are kept in New York and are never destroyed) They are forbidden to play chess; They are forbidden to wear jade jewelry; They are forbidden to read any anti-Jehovah's Witness material; They are forbidden to interpret the Bible without Watchtower literature to explain it; They are forbidden to wear any Christian jewelry. 

They are forbidden to buy Girl Scout cookies; Jesus was not born the savior but became the savior at his baptism.

What Do They Believe-Freemasons

Aleister Crowley- Renowned satanist-note the all seeing eye in the pyramid

Note the all seeing eye of the Great Architect of the Universe-Lucifer

Beginning: It was difficult to determine the precise historical origin of the Freemasons, primarily because there is little historical evidence of the Masons before the eighteenth century. It does appear, however, that on June 24, 1717, four independent guilds of stone cutters met in a London inn to form the first grand lodge. It appears that this new order of masons spread to France by 1732, Hamburg, Germany by 1737, and then throughout much of the rest of Europe, including Italy.

View of Scripture: "The bible of the Christian is merely one of the "holy books" of man, no better than the Koran, the Hindu scriptures or the books of the Chinese and Greek philosophers. It is not to be taken literally, for its true meaning is esoteric (hidden from all but a small number of "enlightened," elite leaders); the literal, obvious meaning is only for the ignorant masses. It is right to remove references to Jesus in passages used in the ritual. Masonry, contrary to popular belief, is NOT based upon the Bible. Masonry is actually based on the Kabala (Cabala), a medieval book of magic and mysticism."

View of God: God is known as "the nameless one of a hundred names." "God is, basically, whatever we perceive Him to be; our idea or concept of God becomes our God. Usually referred to with the vague and general term, "Deity," the god of Masonry can be the one of our choosing, spoken of generically as "The Great Architect of the Universe." However, those who pursue the higher studies in Masonry learn that God is the force of nature, specifically the Sun with its life-giving powers. The "advanced, enlightened ones," the adepts at the top, this nature worship is understood as the worship of the generative principles (i.e. the sex organs), particularly the phallus. Human Nature is also worshipped by some as "Deity," as are Knowledge and Reason. Since Masonry is a revival of the ancient pagan mystery religions, its god can also be said to be Nature, with its fertility (sex) gods and goddesses representing the Sun and Moon (in Egypt, Osiris and Isis)."

Freemasonry utilizes deceit to hide the truth from 1st through 29th degree Masons; and Freemasonry's god is a triune deity called JoaBulOn which stands for Jehovah, Baal, and Osiris.

View on Jesus: "Jesus was just a man. He was one of the "exemplars," one of the great men of the past, but not divine and certainly not the only means of redemption of lost mankind. He was on a level with other great men of the past like Aristotle, Plato, Pythagoras and Mohammed. His life and legend were no different from that of Krishna, the Hindu god. He is "the son of Joseph," not the Son of God."

View on Salvation: "Redemption is a matter of self-improvement, morality, and good works, including obedience to the Mason's obligation and all higher Masonic authorities. Faith in the atonement of Jesus has nothing to do with it; it is rather a matter of enlightenment, step by step, which comes with initiation into the Masonic degrees and their mysteries."

Every Masonic Lodge is a temple of religion, and its teachings are instructions in ... the universal, eternal, immutable religion...." Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, by Albert Pike, Washington D.C., 1958, pp. 213, 219.

"[Masonry is] ... the custodian and depository (since Enoch) of the great philosophical and religious truths, unknown to the world at large...." Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, by Albert Pike, Washington D.C., 1958, p. 210

."Without this religious element it would scarcely be worthy of cultivation by the wise and good...." An Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, by Albert G. Mackey, 1921, pp. 618-619.

"...a worship in which all good men may unite..." by Joseph Newton

"...a religious institution..." by Albert Mackey

 
"Masonry is the universal religion only because and as long as it embraces all religions" by J.D. Buck

"All "profane" people (non-Masons), including godly, genuine Christians, are wretched, blind and lost in complete spiritual darkness. Only initiation into the degrees and mysteries of Masonry will bring them out of darkness and "into the light," cleansing them and imparting new life."

“The religious faith thus taught by Masonry is indispensable to the attainment of the great ends of life; and must therefore have been designed to be a part of it...If we could cut off from any soul all the principles taught by Masonry, the faith in a God, in immortality, in virtue, in essential rectitude, that soul would sink into sin, misery, darkness, and ruin” (Morals and Dogma, p. 196; emp., jrp).

View on Death: A belief in God and in the immortality of the soul is a fundamental precept of Freemasonry. God is recognised as the divine creator of the universe and the soul is that element of the divine spirit that resides in every person and distinguishes it from all other living things. (Not otherwise defined)

View on the Church: "The "light" of Freemasonry, its "secrets" and its pathway to "perfection" are only for the elite few initiated into its knowledge and wisdom. Excluded are women, Negroes (initially), the poor (who haven't the money with which to pay), the cripples, blind and deaf who can't perform the recognition signs (or see and hear them), and the feeble-minded who can't receive the teachings or be trusted to protect them. All such people, including the wives, the daughters and some of the sons of Masons, are considered "profane" (unclean, unworthy) and can never be anything else. No references are required here for it is common knowledge and all of the above confirms and establishes it." Blacks were admitted to Prince Hall lodges after first charted in 1784, Women admitted to Eastern Star for indoctrination of Masonic beliefs in 1876

Sacraments: Handclasps and oaths symbolic death burial and resurrection into the Masonic faith. Blood Oaths on penalty of mayhem and violent death are administered at the end of initiation into all Masonic degrees, binding the initiate to protect the "secrets" of the degrees. These oaths of obligation (usually called just "obligation") are considered unbreakable, and are (collectively) the thing that makes a man a Mason. In this way, these oaths are the cornerstone of Masonry. (Mormonism took its handclasps and symbols from Freemasonry)

The SQUARE, therefore, is a natural and appropriate Symbol of this Earth and the things that belong to it, are of it, or concern it. The Compass is an equally natural and appropriate Symbol of the Heavens, and of all celestial things and celestial natures.

7/1/01 RICK MARTIN

( rm888@mindspring.com )
Martin: And behind the scenes the Jesuits are pulling the strings?

Phelps: Pulling the strings because they wrote all of the Masonic rites.

Martin: For our Masonic scholars out there, on what do you base that?

Phelps: We know that, according to several citations I reference in the book VATICAN ASSASSINS, the Jesuits wrote the first 25 degrees of the Scottish Rite Freemasonry, from the College of Clermont, which was changed to the College of Louis LeGrand, in Paris, France.

Martin: What year?

Phelps: 1754. That is a fact. The Jesuits wrote those rites.

Martin: Do you have any names behind that?

Phelps: Oh, I believe Chevalier Ramsey was, Chevalier de Bonneville was one. Remember the Bonneville automobile, and Pontiac? Those were Jesuits. And we have Adam Weishaupt, who was a Jesuit, who was a Mason. And it was the Rothschild Luciferians. So we have many dovetails of the Jesuits being Freemasons.

And we know, according to our hero Alberto Rivera, that Pedro Arrupe was a Mason, and Pedro Arrupe was a Jesuit General. Pedro Arrupe was a Mason AND in the Communist Party of Spain when he was a Jesuit General.

So, we also know that the Jesuits were involved in the writing of the last 8 degrees of Scottish Rite Freemasonry, with Fredrick the Great in Prussia, while Fredrick protected the Jesuits and gave them the ability to live in his country, while they were being suppressed by the Pope.

What Do They Believe?-7th Day Adventists

Beginning: 1840: William Miller (Baptist)- Preached that Jesus would return (Advent) on Oct.22, 1844. When it didn’t occur, many left Miller, others interpreted the date as correct, but as being the date that Jesus entered into the “Holiest of Holies” in heaven to begin judging Christians on the earth. This is the common understanding of the several branches of the Adventists.

Officially, after this rough start, the “7^th Day Adventist Church” name was chosen and a legal body created to hold property.

View of Scripture: The standard protestant canon is accepted. The Clear Word paraphrase is favored, but SDA denies preference. Ellen G. White, an early leader is considered their “prophet” and her writings are a “continuing and authoritative source for truth” such as... . “In the health reform vision of June 6, 1863, a broad array of health principles was revealed. The next year she published a fifty-page chapter entitled "Health" in Spiritual Gifts, volume 4. In reference to swine's flesh she said: "God never designed the swine to be eaten under any circumstances" (p. 124), and in her later books she continued to emphasize the injurious consequences of eating swine's flesh.” Remember, this group originally followed Wm. Miller in his error

View of God: Originally denied the Trinity, later and now it is taught as an essential understanding.

View on Jesus: Mrs. White: "Christ took upon His sinless nature our sinful nature ... Christ took human nature and bore the infirmities and degeneracy of the race. He took our nature and its deteriorating condition" (Q.D., pp. 654-656) (cf. Jn. 14:30). According to SDA, then, Christ acquired a sinful nature! Of course, if this could have been so, there could have been no sinless sacrifice, no hope for sinners, and no Savior

Also called Michael, the arch-angel, Eternal Son incarnate, born of the Virgin Mary. Death burial and resurrection ascended into heaven, and in the sanctuary, began a work of paying for the offenses of all humanity. That work was completed Oct.22, 1844 (see above; Beginning)

View on Salvation: Legalistic- Repentance, baptism (trinity formula), live in obedience to the 10 Commandments (2 Cor.3:2-8, Gal.3:1-13). Those found obedient will be saved. Sunday worship is viewed as the Mark of the Beast.

View on Death: Death is an unconscious state for everyone. At Christ’s return the righteous will be raised for life in heaven. After 1000 yrs, the wicked will be raised for annihilation (like the Jehovah’s Witnesses). No eternal judgment of hell fire.

View on the Church: The universal church includes all who believe in Christ. The last days are a time of apostasy during which a remnant (the 7^th Day Adventists) keeps God’s commandments faithfully.

Sacraments: Baptism is by full immersion, contingent upon affirming both faith in Jesus and Adventist doctrines. Baptism is into the 7^th Day Adventist Church. Communion is done quarterly, including foot-washing. Vegetarianism is taught with special emphasis against swine flesh. 1 Tim 4:1-5

Other Beliefs: Humans are indivisible mind, body and spirit. Humans do not have souls. No Meat, no caffeine

MUST READ:

Rom.10:2-17, 14:17, Col. 2:8-17

" Behold, I am against the prophets, said the Lord, that use their tongues and say, He said. Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, said the Lord, and do tell them, and cause My people to err by their lies and by their lightness; yet I send them not, nor commanded them; therefore they shall not profit this people at all, said the Lord." Jeremiah 23:31-32

PROPHECIES BY ELLEN G. WHITE:

"I also saw that Old Jerusalem would never be built up." Early Writings Pg 75. Old Jerusalem has been built up.

Mrs White said she would be alive when Jesus returns... "Soon our eyes were drawn to the East, for a small black cloud had appeared, about half as large as a man's hand, which we all knew was the
sign of the Son of Man...we were changed and caught up together with them to meet the Lord in the air." Early Writings pg 15-16.

Mrs White said in May of 1856 that some of those listening to her will live to see the return of Jesus...

Some of those that were attending a meeting with her would become food for worms, and some would live to become subjects of the seven last plagues, and some others would "remain upon the earth to be translated at the coming of Jesus." Testimonies for the Church, vol 1, pg 131-132.
That statement was made over 140 years ago. Has Jesus come yet? Are any of those at that 1856 meeting still alive?

Satan is to bear our sins… "As the priest, in removing the sins from the sanctuary, confessed them upon the scapegoat, so Christ will place those sins upon Satan..." The Great Controversy, Pg 422, 485-486 "So also was Christ offered once to TAKE AWAY THE SINS OF MANY." Hebrews 9:28.

"God is either teaching His church, reproving their wrongs and strengthening their faith, or He is not. This work is of God, or it is not. God does nothing in partnership with Satan. My work for the past thirty years bears the stamp of God or the stamp of the enemy. There is no halfway work in the matter. The Testimonies are of the Spirit of God, or of the devil. In arraying yourself against the servants of God you are doing a work either for God or for the devil." -- Testimonies, Vol. 4, p. 230. E.G. White

Well said, Ms.White!

Mrs. White claimed to have received more than 3,000 "inspired counsels from the Lord" (i.e., visions) between 1844 and 1868. (From these "visions," she produced over 100,000 handwritten manuscript pages from which were published 54 books!) Therefore, SDAs have a new source of authority in their lives -- according to SDA's dogma, if an SDA does not accept Mrs. White as infallible, they have no salvation!

The Clear Word Bible: Is It the Word of God?

By Dale Ratzlaff and Verle Streifling

The Seventh-day Adventists express a firm belief in the authority and inerrancy of Scripture. Their statement of beliefs claims,
The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God, given by divine inspiration through holy men of God who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. In this Word, God has committed to man the knowledge necessary for salvation. The Holy Scriptures are the infallible revelation of His will. They are the standard of character, the test of experience, the authoritative revealer of doctrines, and the trustworthy record of God's acts in history.¹

Despite this affirmation of the character of the Bible, the SDA Church demonstrates a different approach to Scripture in its popular Clear Word Bible. The many changes made to the biblical text in the Clear Word Bible are ultimately destructive to the integrity of God's Word.

The gravity of deliberately changing the meaning of God's word cannot be overemphasized. Psalm 138 equates the sacredness of God's Word with His holy name: "Thou hast magnified Thy word according to all Thy name." Deuteronomy 4:2 says, "Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it." Proverbs 30:5, 6 reiterates this point: "Every word of God is pure.Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar." Since God's Word is pure and truth,² any changes to His Word will ultimately change the truth of God into a lie, with disastrous consequences.³

Christians should inquire as to why anyone would want to make numerous additions, deletions and changes to God's word. True, some Christians allow paraphrases that interpretively present God's word in order to make it plain for the current generation. What is indicated, however, when a paraphrase deliberately revises God's Word? The belief that additions, deletions and changes need to be made is a clear sign of doctrinal weakness. This article will show that The Clear Word Bible has changed God's Word so that it supports Adventist doctrines in general and writings of their prophetess, Ellen G. White, in particular. Her writings are still held by the SDA church to be "a continuing and authoritative source of truth."⁴ Following are just a few examples where the Clear Word Bible alters the statements of Scripture to make it line up with Adventist theology. To illustrate this assertion, several passages in the CW (The Clear Word Bible) will be compared with the KJV (King James Version or Authorized Version).

Seventh day Sabbath

Adventists teach that observing the seventh-day Sabbath is the seal of God and will become the final test of loyalty to Christ for all Christians.

Genesis 2:2-3

KJV - And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

CW - Then on the seventh day of creation week, God stopped to enjoy what He had made and to rest in the beauty of it all. So He blessed the seventh day and set it apart as a day of spiritual refreshment and joy.

Note - The CW makes the seventh day part of "creation week" rather than the celebration of a finished creation.

Exodus 5:5

KJV -And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.

CW - You've created enough problems by making them rest every week on your Sabbath.

Note - The CW describes the rest as occurring every week on the Sabbath, whereas in reality Moses requested an isolated three day period in which the Israelites could worship God (see verse 3 in the KJV).

Exodus 16:5

KJV - And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in; and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.

CW - On the sixth day they should gather twice as much as on the other days so as to have enough for the seventh day, which is the Sabbath, the day I set aside for worship and rest.

Note - The addition "which is the Sabbath, the day I set aside for worship and rest," does not appear in any biblical manuscript.

Exodus 31:13-14, 16

KJV -Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people ...Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.

CW - Say to the people, "Most importantly, remember to keep the Sabbath holy because it is a very special day for me, and it's a day of rest for you. It's a sign between you and me for all time to show that you are the people whom I have chosen and set apart. The Sabbath is holy and anyone who desecrates it by working on that day will be put to death, since that would be an act of treason against God's government. My people are to keep the Sabbath, celebrating it as a sign that they belong to me."

Note - The CW purposefully revises the text to make it appear that the Sabbath is intended for all people, not just for Israel, as the Bible teaches. In verse 13 it changes "children of Israel" to "people" and in verse 16 it changes "children of Israel" to "My people," and "a perpetual covenant" to "a sign that they belong to Me." To justify making the Sabbath observance a universal requirement it also adds, "Since that would be treason against God's government to verse 14.

Leviticus 23:3

KJV - Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

CW - There has always been the weekly Sabbath.

Note - The CW replaces the biblical institution of the Sabbath with the statement that the Sabbath has always existed.

Ezekiel 45:17

KJV - And it shall be the prince's part to give burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the new moons, and in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.

CW - It will be his duty to provide these national offerings on all appointed festivals with their special Sabbaths, including the monthly festival of the New Moon. He is to bring grain offerings, whole burnt offerings and peace offerings for an atonement for the nation as a whole.

Note - The "feasts," "new moons," and "sabbaths" respectively signify the yearly, monthly, and weekly celebrations. The phrase is a virtual formula used in numerous places in the Old Testament in both ascending and descending order. In order to prevent the weekly sabbath from being associated with the whole sacrificial system done away with by the New Covenant, the CW destroys the word order to make sabbaths refer to the yearly feasts instead of the weekly.

Acts 20:7

KJV -And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.

CW - After sundown on Saturday night, the believers got together for a fellowship meal and to say good-by to Paul. That evening he spoke to them until midnight, after which he hoped to get a few hours sleep before leaving early Sunday morning.

Note - The CW calls this a Saturday night meeting, changes "break bread", a term used by the early church for communion, to a fellowship meal and to say good-by to Paul. Such revision of Scripture completely changes the focus of this verse to fit Adventist theology.

Colossians 2:16

KJV - Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days.

CW - Don't let anyone control you life by giving you a set of ceremonial rules about what to eat, what to drink and what monthly festivals or special Sabbaths to keep. All these rules were given as a shadow of the reality to come and that reality is Jesus Christ.

Note - Colossians 2:16 is a very important verse in that it shows clearly that the Seventh-day Sabbath is only a shadow of Christ. This verse should be studied in its context and also compared to its Old Testament parallel, Ezekiel 45:17 (above) When the terms "festival (or equivalent), new moons and Sabbaths are used together in the Old Testament the word Sabbath always refers to the seventh-day Sabbath. Also, these terms are usually used in either ascending or descending sequence: festival (yearly) new moons (monthly) Sabbaths (weekly) or Sabbaths (weekly), new moons (monthly), festivals (yearly).

These two well established patterns make it certain that the seventh-day Sabbath is in view in Colossians 2:16 and this fact undermines the whole SDA emphasis on the seventh-day Sabbath. Note how the CB alters both Colossians 2:16 as well as the Old Testament parallel text.

Hebrews 4:4

KJV -For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

CW - That's why at creation He gave man the seventh-day Sabbath, not only as a reminder of creation week, but also as a symbol of spiritual rest. According to the Scriptures, God Himself rested on the seventh day and enjoyed this special time with man.

Note - The CW states "according to the Scriptures," but then adds to the Scriptures such phrases as the "symbol of spiritual rest" and the "special time with man."

Hebrews 4:9

KJV -There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

CW - So there still remains the offer of spiritual rest that God intends for each generation to have, of which the Sabbath is a symbol.

Note - The biblical manuscripts make no reference in this verse to spiritual rest or the Sabbath as a symbol.⁵

Revelation 1:10

KJV - I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day.

CW - On Sabbath morning when I had gone to the rocky island shore to meditate and worship.

Note - The CW adds the concluding clause to reinforce Adventist liturgical practices.

One can see by the examples listed above that The Clear Word Bible makes numerous deletions and additions, revising the Word of God to make the Bible teach what it does not teach: the Adventist doctrine of required universal observance of the seventh-day Sabbath for all peoples.

Death and Hell

Adventists, like Jehovah Witnesses, believe in soul sleep and do not believe in hell. Note how they have changed the word of God to fit their theology.

Isaiah 66:24

KJV - And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

CW - They will see the dead bodies of those who have rebelled against me lying outside the city. It will be an abhorrent sight. But just as worms don't stop until they devour the dead and fire doesn't stop until it destroys, so the fires of the Lord will destroy the wicked and consume them all.

Note - Christ quotes this verse on several occasions. Never, however, does He give this interpretation. Rather, He uses it as a description of hell.⁶ A similar change can be seen in Matthew 5:22, 29, 30, where the CW changes "hell fire" to "lose eternal life".

Matthew 10:28

KJV -And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

CW - Don't be afraid that you might be killed. They can kill your body but not your spirit or your loyalty to me. Now if there is some thing to be concerned about, it's that you don't lose your faith in God.

Note - The CW deletes the segment referring to eternal damnation, and instead alter the text to make it solely an exhortation to retain one's faith in God.

Matthew 18:9

KJV -And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

CW - If, for example, your eye places a wrong value on things, be willing to lose your eye to keep your moral innocence. If you have to make a choice, it's better not to be great in this life and yet live forever than to lose your childlike innocence and have everything end with this life.

Note - Not only does this verse do away with "fiery hell" but it also inserts "moral innocence" and "childlike innocence," neither of which are mentioned in Scripture.

Also found in the Clear Word

Job 1:6-7 "In heaven the representatives of other planets in God’s created universe came together regularly to meet with Him. One day Satan also came with them and presented himself for admittance. He came to accuse God of being partial to Job." "God said to Satan, ‘On what basis do you want to attend this meeting?’ The Accuser answered, ‘I represent the planet Earth and have been in charge there for a long time.’"

(Genesis 2:25) Adam and the woman, whom he called Eve, wore no clothes in those days, yet they were unashamed because they were clothed with light.

(Spiritual Gifts 34) This sinless pair wore no artificial garments. They were clothed with a covering of light, such as angels wear.

Genesis 3:2 Eve was startled but instead of fleeing to Adam's side... (SG 40) Eve's curiosity was aroused. Instead of fleeing from the spot, she listened to hear a serpent talk. That strange voice should have driven her to her husband's side...

(Patriarchs &Prophets 54) Eve was surprised and startled... Instead of fleeing from the spot...

Genesis 6:4 In those days people were giants, twice as large as people today.

(SG3) Those who lived before the flood, come forth with their giant-like stature, more than twice as tall as men now living upon the earth.

Genesis 6:7 ...I will have to destroy the very creatures I made - people, animals and birds, including the large creatures which have come about by crossbreeding. I cannot let...

(SG3 64) But if there was one sin above another which called for the destruction of the race by the flood, it was the base crime of amalgamation of man and beast which defaced the image of God, and caused confusion everywhere.

(SG3 75) Every species of animal which God had created were preserved in the ark. The confused species which God did not create, which were the result of amalgamation, were destroyed by the flood. Since the flood there has been amalgamation of man and beast, as may be seen in the almost endless varieties of species of animals, and in certain races of men.

Jude vs.9
kjv- Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

CWB "In contrast to these ungodly men is the Lord Jesus Christ, also called Michael, the archangel in charge of the entire angelic host. When He was challenged by Satan about His intentions to resurrect Moses, He didn't come against Satan with a blistering attack nor did he belittle him. He simply said, 'God rejects your claim to his body."
