Genesis 12: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that
curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
In this verse, God was speaking to Abraham - in other passages as well
it is made very clear - You cannot be anti-semitic and be a friend of
God or a Christian. Jesus Christ who, Christians believe, came to earth
as the son of God, the son of man, a Jew, a studied Rabbi who knew,
observed and practiced the law and the Prophets of the Torah and what is
now called the Old Testament.
There are many fine, believing, faithful and worthy servants of Jesus
Christ who call themselves Catholics. This is not intended to your
offense but to warn you that the Roman Catholic church has its roots in
paganism and it is a false religion that will be the end-time religion
of the false prophet and the world religion that supports the
anti-Christ.
What is the proof? There is much resource material on the Internet to
get started in your research. Emperor Constantine of Rome and those who
founded Roman Catholicism were pagans - some sun worshippers and
followers of Mithraism. They were seeking to unite the Roman Empire
under one religion that would incorporate elements of all the pagan
religions that existed amongst the nations they conquered. Therefore,
much of the pagan ritual and symbolism was intentionally used in the
Roman Catholic church.
The mother and child symbolism came from many fertility cults that
existed in Egypt, other parts of the MIddle East and elsewhere. The
fertility cults worshipped woman as goddess, so there is the connection
to pagan goddess worship. In uplifting the Mother Mary to a higher
level than holy scripture does, it has incorporated pagan goddess and
fertility worship. The easter-egg hunts that are part of some Catholic
and Protestant activities are also derived from the fertility cults -
the egg being a symbol of fertility. The name Easter itself is a
derivation from Ishtar - a pagan God of ancient Persia.
Even more sinister was the intention of the early founders of the Roman
Catholic church to disassociate Christianity from its Jewish roots.
Jesus Christ came to earth as the son of God, the son of man, a Jew, a
studied Rabbi who knew and practiced the law and the Prophets of the
Torah and what is now called the Old Testament. The hierarchy of the
Roman Catholic church from the beginning has been anti-semitic. Through
history the Jews have been persecuted and killed either by or on the
orders and authority and with the approval of the ruling hierarchy of
the Roman Catholic church. Specifically, the Crusades, the Inquisition
and the murder and robbery of Jews who would not renounce their faith
and become Catholics.
Genesis 12: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that
curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
In this verse, God was speaking to Abraham - in other passages as well
it is made very clear - You cannot be anti-semitic and be a friend of
God or a Christian.
There has been much injustice done in the name of Christ and not only
from Roman Catholics. Martin Luther, the founder of Protestantism,
thought that Jews would convert to Christianity when he founded the
Lutheran church. They did not rush to meet him. So, he wrote a
horrific book (On the Jews and Their Lies) that Adolf Hitler used as a
guide book for The Final Solution - the extermination of the Jews.
The Roman Catholic church is now working to unify the world with the
United Nations as the one-world government and itself as the world
religion. Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair converted from the
Anglican church to the Roman Catholicism after he became the UN
representative working for peace in the Middle East. Roman Catholicism
is seeking peace with Islam which is diametrically opposed to
Christianity and Judaism. But, the level on which this peace attempts
are working is to find a world unite under that banner of socialism,
even Communism. Russia is not weakened - this is propaganda for public
consumption. Russia still wields one of, if not the most powerful
arsenals of weapons in the world. It has alliances with most of the
Arab nations and will supply them with weapons and fight on their side
in any conflict with Israel or any western nation. This is proven by
their past actions and the treaties they have signed with those nations.
There will most certainly be wars enroute to this peace as radical Islam
will not make peace but seeks to destroy its enemies. Or,
poitical-financial-economic deals will have to be made with the oil-rich
Arabians to get their compliance in restraining or destroying their
radicals. More likely, the radical followers of Islam will be used to
persecute and destroy true Christians wherever they may be. Russia is
achieving its atheistic goals by supporting Arab nations in this effort.
The west, particularly the U.S., is spiritually weak and not willing to
fight for freedom and faith as they once were. The European Union is
becoming stronger, has a unified currency and could very well be the
group from which the anti-Christ emerges, as the prophet Daniel wrote of
the re-establishment of the Holy Roman Empire in his dream of the rise
and fall of world empires. The Holy Roman Empires of the past generally
had a Germanic leader and the Roman Catholic church as its religious
power. Vatican City is the most wealthy and politically powerful if not
the only world religious center to be a district unto itself. Pope John
Paul II traveled the world, speaking of solidarity among nations. The
current Benedict (also the name of a famous American traitor) works to
unify world religions and nations.
Many see this as a good thing but when there are no more separate
nations there is centralized power, loss
of freedom and corruption. Global power is centered in global banks,
global corporations and global religions - the Roman Catholic church. I
could be wrong - Nostradamus predicted that the anti-Christ would be
Arabic and that Islam would be the dominant world religion because of
its willingness to kill all the infidels who would not join up. I
believe the powerful western interests would saturate the Arab nations
(excepting the oil fields and refineries, of course) with bombs before
they would let that happen. Although the book of The Revelation of
Jesus Christ states - 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them,
and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were
beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which
had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received
his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and
reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Beheading is specific to Islam as an execution for standing up for Jesus
- although the guillotine was used in France at one time for other
purposes.
