Paul Flynn discusses some of the history of Roman Catholicism, the increasing influence of mystics on modern evangelicals, and how mysticism links evangelicals to Catholicism.
Tiffany Rent,with family members, leaves the 1st Municipal District of the Circuit Court of Cook County today. Rent, who is 8 months pregnant, was Tasered by Chicago Police after being told to move her vehicle from a handicapped parking spot outside a store. (Alex Garcia,…)
“…police say the officer warned Tiffany Rent he would use the stun gun if she drove away after tearing up a parking ticket, throwing it at his face and yelling, “You ain’t arresting (expletive).” The officer fired the stun gun as she put her SUV into gear, according to a police report.” For more information click on the link entitled “Officer uses stun gun on pregnant woman during parking dispute“
This is just one of the many incidents which displays America’s moral decay.
This new article, by Christian J. Pinto, entitled “AMERICA UPSIDE DOWN” posts 25 signs that our country is collapsing from within.
Jesus Christ, knowing how these last days, that we live in, would be, explain it in this way:
Matthew 24
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
The Apostle Paul also foretold, by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, what the people in these last days would be like:
2 Timothy 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
That is why our hope should not be in this world, but in Christ’s coming kingdom.
2Peter 3
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
1John 5
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Revelation 2
25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.
26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
28 And I will give him the morning star.
Jesus warned his disciples of deception that was intended for the church.
Mark 13 5 And Jesus, answering them, began to say: “Take heed that no one deceives ***YOU***.
So the deception is not just for those who don’t know God. It is also designed to deceive Christians; especially during what Jesus called the “great tribulation”, which will occur shortly before Christ’s return.
Mark 13 21 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, He is there!’ do not believe it. 22 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 23 But take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand.
Before the great tribulation, the world will be dominated by a world church (Revelation 17). It will deceive all of the nations of the world
Revelation 17 1 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, “Come, I will show
you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, 2 with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.”
It is because this false church will dominate the world’s understanding of what it means to be a Christian, that God, before hand, told us not to be deceived by it, and also to come out of it. He tells us to come out of it, because many of his elect have been raised within it from childhood.
Revelation 18 4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
Some of the people that God has already called out of this church were priests, and monks, within this church, such as Martin Luther and John Hus. Many of them were killed by this false church. That is why the Bible said that it is drunk with the blood of the saints (Revelation 17:6). During its first reign over the kings of, what Daniel called, the “fourth kingdom”, it was reported to have killed about 50 million people through its crusades and inquisitions (Daniel 8).
Revelation 17 shows us that it will rule over the kings of the fourth kingdom before the great tribulation (Revelation 17:1-3).
The beast is the office of the pope. Throughout the church age, the popes have claimed to be “The Holy Father”, “The Father”/pope means father, “The Vicar of Christ”/antichirst, and Christ veiled in human flesh. The fourth kingdom/Europe believed this heresy, and idolatry, and thought that this madness was Christianity. If only they were able to read the Bible. Then they would have been able to see for themselves that this was the opposite of Chris’s church, and that the popes were Christ’s enemies.
Matthew 24 4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no
The VICARS OF CHRIST “Vicar of Christ”, which means: to reign in the place of Christ. “Antichrist” means: one who puts himself in the place of Christ. It also means: the opponent of Christ.
one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. Luke 21 8 And He said: “Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time has drawn near.’ Therefore ***do not go after them***.
These are the popes; the little horn of Daniel 7:19-25, Daniel 8:23-25, and it will come back during the great tribulation (Revelation 13, Revelation 17).
So the concept of a Universal church is not a theory, but Bible prophecy, because the Bible tells us that the fourth kingdom will rule over the earth, and that the capital of the fourth kingdom is the little horn/Roman Catholicism & the popes.
The knowledge of the fourth kingdom’s efforts to take over the world is as common as their slogan, which is “the new world order”. It means “a one world government for the entire world to be ruled by.” Many coming out of Europe have been working toward this goal, such as the Jesuits, Freemasons, Rosicrucians, The Illuminati, Roman Catholicism, Skull & Bones, The Bohemian Club, The CFR, The United Nations, The European Union, International Bankers, The super rich corporations & families of the West (America & Europe), and many others. And all of these are working together as one, for the purpose of bringing about a new world order, and “Coexistence”. They claim to be working toward establishing peace and security for the world, just as the Bible foretold (1Thessalonians 5:1-6).
1Thessalonians 5:2-3
There is a very religious element to this conspiracy. It operates according to the principal of ecumenism, for the purpose of creating a universal religion, that consist of all of the world’s religions, under the leadership of the new world order’s government. Within this one world religion is Christianity, and its intent is for Christianity to be led by Roman Catholicism. In America, this includes, both the religious right, and the religious left. It is through doctrine and practice that the conservatives are being aided and led by Roman Catholics in their “God in government” campaign, which is a moral crusade for the soul of America, and Liberals are being led by Roman Catholics through humanitarianism, and mysticism. These are the out-workings of the social gospel, and most American Christians are being led astray by it. The social gospel has shaped America throughout its history the mid to late 1700’s.
The proofs of the effort for the new world order, the Universal church, and coexistence, can be affirmed by the following links:
If we think that we can re-establish morality through civil law, let us not be blind to the facts about who we are as human beings, and let us, instead, be reminded, by “the recent tragedy“, that our nation, and even our world, is not under God blessing, but his curse.
First, remember that we are not good people, but sinners, and the law is only good for showing us how evil we are before God:
Romans 3
10 As it is written: ” There is none righteous, no, not one;
11 There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God.
12 They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one.”
13 ” Their throat is an open tomb; With their tongues they have practiced deceit”; ” The poison of asps is under their lips”;
14 ” Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”
15 ” Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways;
17 And the way of peace they have not known.”
18 ” There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
The heart of mankind is desperately wicked, and we receive, from God, what we deserve:
Jeremiah 17
9 ” The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?
10 I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.
We became sinful because of Adams rebellion against God, and this is proven by the fact that everyone that lives must die, because the wages of sin is death:
Genesis 2
15 Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.
16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”
Romans 5
12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned —
Romans 6
23 For the wages of sin is death
Therefore, to be a decedent of Adam, is to be born in sin, separated from God, and to have a heart that is wicked from its youth:
Psalm 51
5 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me.
Genesis 8
21 “…the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth…”
Mankind is under God’s curse, of bondage to shameful sins, because its refuses to worship the true God, and it rejects his Son, Jesus Christ:
Exodus 20
3 ” You shall have no other gods before Me.
4 ” You shall not make for yourself a carved image — any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;
5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,
Romans 1
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.
20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man — and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
Mankind is also living under the judgment of God, which started in the Garden of Eden:
Genesis 3
17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’: ” Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.
18 Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, And you shall eat the herb of the field.
19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, And to dust you shall return.”
Also more judgments have come on mankind, throughout history, in the form of plagues:
Matthew 24
4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you.
5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many (the plague of tyrants and false Christs – Revelation 6:2).
6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet (the plague of death by violence – Revelation 6:4).
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places (plagues of poverty and deaths of all kinds – Revelation 6:5-8).
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.
10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another.
11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.
12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
This will continue, and grow worse, until Jesus Christ returns to establish his kingdom on earth (Revelation 6 & Matthew 24). Trying to change or control these plagues is to fight against God, who sent them. They are his judgments. Our only hope in this world is the good news of Jesus Christ, because it promises, those who believe in him, freedom from sin, to be saved from God’s judgment on this world, eternal life, and to reign with Christ forever when he returns. This is the hope of the world. It is not from this world. It is from Heaven. It is from God. It is unique. It is good in every way, and brings no sorrow.
God does not want us to become better people, because he knows that we cannot. Instead, he tells us to turn away from our sins and to place our trust in the gospel of Jesus Christ. If we trust his promise to save us, who believe in him, then we will abide in him (study, meditate upon, and obey his teachings).
Isaiah 51
1 “Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness, You who seek the LORD: Look to the rock from which you were hewn, And to the hole of the pit from which you were dug.
2 Look to Abraham your father, And to Sarah who bore you; For I called him alone, And blessed him and increased him.” – Romans 4
3 For the LORD will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness will be found in it, Thanksgiving and the voice of melody. – Revelation 21:4-6 & Matthew 5:3-10
4 ” Listen to Me, My people; And give ear to Me, O My nation: For law will proceed from Me, And I will make My justice rest As a light of the peoples. – Revelation 20:4-6
5 My righteousness is near, My salvation has gone forth, And My arms will judge the peoples; The coastlands will wait upon Me, And on My arm they will trust. – Revelation 20:7-15
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look on the earth beneath. For the heavens will vanish away like smoke, The earth will grow old like a garment, And those who dwell in it will die in like manner; But My salvation will be forever, And My righteousness will not be abolished. – Revelation 21:1-8
World View Weekend Radio – “The news is reporting that the Rockefellers of the United States and the Rothschilds of Europe are uniting to form a “strategic partnership.” Brannon uses this story to begin the conversation about how rich and powerful bankers, businessmen, and politicians recently gathered just outside Washington D.C. for the Bilderberger meeting. Are the globalists about to pick the man they are going to support for President in the U.S.? The choice is between globalist Romney and Neo-Marxist Obama. Does this current scenario reveal the long standing partnership and battle between the Fabian Socialists and the Communists? Are the Fabians concerned that Neo-Marxist Obama has awaken a sleeping giant? Is it time for the Neo-Marxist occupying the White House to move on and be replaced by a Communitarian/Fabian Socialist by the name of Romney? Brannon details interesting historical facts that reveal this long standing battle and the long standing battle between those who want their plan to remain secret and those like Carroll Quigley and George Bernard Shaw that wanted the plan to be openly discussed. ” ~ Brannon Howse
Persecution of Christians is inevitable, because Christ told his church that the world would hate them just as it hated him. The conspiracy throughout the age of Christendom has been to cause the peoples of the world to hate, and even fear Christians as though they are insurrectionists, antisocial, hateful, murderous, villains. When Christians are marginalized, and demonized, before the public, just as Roman emperor Nero demonized Christians by accusing them of burning Rome, the citizens are then more than willing to allow their government to persecute Christians. This old method of turning the world against Christians is still in action today. An example of this method can be seen in the media’s publicizing of the court case of the Norway mass killer, Anders Behring Breivik, who said that he picked victims who had the ‘leftist’ look. His killing spree has been publicized by the media throughout western society. Now his insane, murderous, heart, is being publicized as well, and everyone will see the evils of extremism; right-wing extremism in particular. Since Christians are known for being right-wing in their political views, they will be further marginalized, and demonized as insurrectionists, antisocial, hateful, murderous, villains. For more information on the Norway mass killer, click on the link entitled, “Anders Behring Breivik“.
To add fuel to the fire of the ongoing method of demonizing Christians, the social gospel’s liberation theology of America teaches Christians that they have the right to take up arms against their government. As Benjamin Franklin stated, “Rebellion against tyrants is obedience to God”. Although the legal right to bear arms is under attack, and the Fema camps are setting many Americans on edge because of the “NDAA“, Christians still want to believe in their right to take up arms against their government. This view is widely held by white American Christian republicans, who are proud, stubborn, and not willing to take up their cross of suffering for Christ’ sake. Their outspoken affirmation of their right to own firearms, and to use them to fight against their government, is what is adding fuel to the fire of marginalizing, and demonizing Christians throughout western society. Their determination to ignore Christ’ teachings on this matter will only serve to dig a deeper whole of persecution for Christians to fall into.
American Christians has always been told that they are the exception to the rule of Scripture, which affirms the persecution of everyone who desire to live godly lives (2Timothy 3:12). This is because America was birthed, not by the gospel of Jesus Christ, but by the social gospel, which teaches Americans that they can gain the world (The American Dream/life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness), and not loose their souls in the process. To read more on the corrupting effects of the American social gospel, click on the link entitled “War on Consciousness Pt. 3 – The Monumental Promotion of the ‘Social Gospel‘“.
The American government has already begun its demonization of people who hold to right-wing views. These views of the political right do not affirm the values of the changing moral climate of America, and will no longer be tolerated. Therefore, there is now a campaign to demonize the old morality of the political right, so that the next generation will see them as alien, hateful, extreme, insane, arrogant, and even ungodly. This campaign is being implemented through the educational system, the media, politics, and through religion. For examples of the government’ s conspiracy against right-wing adherents, click on the links entitled “GOVERNMENT SAYS CHRISTIANS ARE TERRORISTS” and “Christians Classified as Terrorists by Obama Administration“.
Rebellion against tyrants is obedience to God. ~ Benjamin Franklin
This is not the God of Scripture that he’s referring to.
Genesis 3
14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Revelation 12
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
The social gospel preaches “fight for your earthly freedom”.
The gospel of Jesus Christ says “overcome by the blood of the lamb, Jesus Christ, and by the word of your testimony”.
God did not promise his church freedom in Satan’s kingdom, but persecution.
Our freedom is in Christ’s return.
To support the social gospel is to partner with the serpent.
To take up arms against the government is to partner with the serpent.
Those who do not take up their cross and deny themselves will lose the savor of a good testimony, for Jesus Christ, to this sinful world.
Those who partner with the serpent will be trodden under foot.
Matthew 5
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
1John 5
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
19 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
The “New Christianity” does not adhere to one doctrine of heresy, but many. These many doctrines are brought in by way of a disregard for Scripture, and an overall disregard for truth. This disregard for truth has brought a hodge-podge of pseudo Christian insanity into the church. Therefore, anything goes, and no one questions the falsehood, because few have a desires to know the God of Scripture. Out of the few who do want to know the truth, only a small percentage has the backbone to speak out against it, and separate themselves from the insanity. In this way, the masses who think that they are Christians are actually following a false gospel, and a false Christ, by way of false teachers and false churches that will lead them to destruction and eternal punishment.
Christian American’s reading of the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Ancient Corinth, is the same as holding a mirror before the American church, and to see its own shameful condition.
2Corinthians 11 1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
What does Scripture require God’s people to do in light of this matter?
Scripture always commands God’s people to separate:
Romans 16 17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
2 Timothy 3 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
Titus 3 9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. 10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; 11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.
2John 1 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Matthew 7 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. 15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
This will continue, and grow worse, until Jesus Christ returns to establish his kingdom on earth (Revelation 6 & Matthew 24). Trying to change or control these plagues is to fight against God, who sent them. They are his judgments. Our only hope in this world is the good news of Jesus Christ, because it promises, those who believe in him, freedom from sin, to be saved from God’s judgment on this world, eternal life, and to reign with Christ forever when he returns. This is the hope of the world. It is not from this world. It is from Heaven. It is from God. It is unique. It is good in every way, and brings no sorrow.
