Sin's Seriousness

By Richard Sandlin

“There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.” I've heard preacher’s say we do not know what this sin is. If that be the case, then we cannot know how to keep ourselves from it. Nor can we know who and who not to pray for. Because of the seriousness of the text, I refuse to believe that God would keep us in the dark concerning it.

I believe that John is not necessarily speaking of one specific sin, but rather a kind of sin. If we use the Old Testament as our commentary on this Scripture, we find the type of sin John is speaking of is a sin of presumption. Trace this word and its equivalent throughout the Old Canon and you’ll find, more often than not, death is associated with it. If I’m correct (and I believe I am), there was no Old Testament sacrifice for the sin of presumption. Is it any wonder then that David prayed, “Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins”?

The following is list of some who committed this sin: Achan, Saul, Ananias and Sapphira, Nadab and Abihu, and some of the Corinthian believers. And what does God say to such people? “Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord God...” It should be noted in each of these cases this presumptuous sin was not committed out of weakness, but wickedness.

Let me say, there should be no guilt complex on the part of Godly believers when God removes the burden of prayer for relatives and friends. Samuel, Jeremiah, and Joshua were told by God to cease their praying. Even Moses, who committed the sin of presumption, when praying about it, was told by God, “[S]peak no more unto me of this matter.” And Jeremiah was commanded of the Lord, “Pray not for this people for their good.”

God still considers sin serious...even if this generation of Christians does not.

The Harlot Church Will Soon Be in the Great Tribulation

A NEW POST BY PAW CREEK

The Whore Church Will Soon Be In The Great Tribulation'

The New World Religion Called in the Bible,“The Great Whore” is here.

To a Bible believing person it is an ugly sight. Rock & Roll, Hip-Hop, and Funky music of different fads, with lights flashing and aisles filled with zombies while the Holy Ghost gets blasphemed. The description of this false religion grows more graphic every day. The Bible called it’s leader or leaders beasts or false prophets in the Biblical scene or drama. John was given this picture in Revelation chapter seventeen. After these “Lying Prophets” receive power from the Antichrist and great acceptance and worship from the world population, this New World Religion becomes a mammoth force. It is then called the Great Whore and is seen on top riding a “scarlet-colored beast, full of names of blasphemy…” (Revelation 17:3) 

Let’s look carefully at John’s description.

“Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 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” (Revelation 17:1b-6)

Please note her characteristics and vileness.

1. This religious whore is a great fornicator and is guilty of changing, twisting, and debauching the Word of God. God has pronounced judgment on anyone who adds to or subtracts from the Word of God. “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” (Revelation 22:18-19)

2. She is rich, but spends her riches on herself. She is proud and worldly and decks herself with costly jewels. She drank from a golden cup but its contents have become vileness and abomination.

3. She is a mother of harlots and all her offspring are as wicked as herself.

4. Her greatest hatred is for the true believers who hold to the Holy Bible and its infallible truths. She is drunk with the blood of the hated Bible clinging saints.

Nothing is as vile as religion that has lost its way and departed from purity and holiness. There have been dark moments in the past when this has happened. Jesus came at a time when the Jewish religion was a botched form of greed and selfishness. He walked into the temple with a whip and drove out the temple-evangelists. The Reformation came after a thousand years of Madonna-worship, indulgences (buying sin-rights from the priest in advance), and distorted communion called the mass. Again, the Holy Spirit drove out the priests and the popes and the Gospel was heard by millions. Very soon, religion will be more vicious and vile than ever before and multitudes will either worship a false god or will be tortured and slain. The Son of God will arrive on schedule to cleanse this earth of the last religious deception and He will be installed as King, Prophet, and Priest.

Never before have church leaders been so intent on unifying all varying expressions of religion. It’s like a mad dash into the very spirit of Babylonian confusion. The World Council of Churches met some years ago in Australia. A leader, Nicholas Lossky, was asked by a television journalist, “How close are we to church unity?” His answer was, “Only God can answer that, we must do whatever we can for unity: but only God can decide to produce the event.” The same article that recounted this exchange stated, “Church unity is listed first among the WCC’s functions and purposes in its constitution.” The same article then mentioned a session on unity which included Deegalle Mahinda, a Buddhist monk from Sri Lanka. (Assembly Line, World Council of Churches, Seventh Assembly, Wednesday, February 13, 1991.)

“A New World Religion” fads are present in every religious idea! The Islamic Faith has their view. Every religious entity of significance seems to have some form of expectancy toward a New World Religious Order. The Islamic (Moslems or Muslims) faith is promoting a World Constitution that is rooted in the Quran theology. They are probably the fastest growing religion in the world and now claim over one billion adherents. The very spirit of Islam is especially similar to the stated actions and attitude of the Antichrist in Scripture.

Charismatics / Pentecostals! A large portion of the Charismatic / Pentecostal world is going crazy over Kingdom Dominion theology. This is best described as a revived form of post-millennium, although differing on many major theological points. The bottom line is that we are to become an army of saints (called Joel’s Army) to beat back all forces and to establish the Kingdom of Christ on earth. It will be, to those who buy this deception, a world ruled by the church and ready to bring Christ back to earth.

The Catholic Church! The Catholic Church authorities have worked toward and have expected a New World Religious System for many years. They expect to be at the helm to rule this new temporal religious kingdom. Note these two quotes of 70 and 134 years ago, respectively. “They (Protestants) conveniently forget that they separated from us, not us from them; and that it is for them to return to unity on Catholic terms, not for us to seek union with them, or to accept it, on their terms. Protestantism is rebellion against the authority of Christ vested in His Church. It neither possesses authority, or has any desire to submit to authority. …Protestantism has really proven to be the ally of paganism… All forms of Protestantism are unjustified. They should not exist.” (American (Catholic periodical), January 4, 1941.) “We believe in the triumph of the Catholic Church over infidelity, heresy, schism, revolution, and despotism; over Judaism, Mohammedanism, and heathenism. The restoration of the Pope’s temporal kingdom is necessary to this triumph, and therefore we believe it will be restored.” (The Catholic World, August 1877, Vol. XXV, page 620.)

New Agers! No religious entity is expecting or progressing toward a New World Religion more devotedly than the New Agers. While they represent many strains of thought, they are bound together as a network of loosely connected organizations. There are a few key spokespersons who certainly speak with some degree of unity. Benjamin Creme is one of those key voices. Note his creation of the Great Sign and the description of its meaning. He has continued to suggest since early in the 80’s that “Christ is Here” and ready to be revealed. His latest claims say that he has appeared on several occasions. His Christ is clearly a false prophet.

Bible Believers! True Believers who are willing to endure unto the end will be hated by this religious crowd. If Jesus does not return before this religious order is united, we will be in for dark days of persecution. Faith in the infallible Word of God and the saturation of its wonderful doctrines is imperative. We must know the truth to be free. Don’t fill your mind with any thoughts or ideas except the liberating truths of Scripture. They will prepare you for anything that Satan can cast in your direction. There will be a One World Religion. Maybe we should say, “There is a One World Religion.” Its ultimate position of power will not be fully realized until the Rapture of the Bride. It will ride as a “great whore” upon the back of a New World Order. “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.” (Rev. 17:3)

While she will reach great heights of world glory and power with the false political systems of Antichrist, he has used her to gain the hearts of the world population, and he will then burn her with fire. John saw this New World Religion burn. “And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.” (Rev. 17:16)

Religion is never more than a tool to the great Political Empires. Religious leaders who allow themselves to be tools in building a New World Order are certainly foolish in discerning Biblical events. The most appropriate instruction for this hour is to “Look up, our redemption draweth nigh.” We are waiting in the foyer for the king. Don’t be lazy or slothful. It is an hour for Biblical diligence, fasting and intercession, soul winning and alms giving. It’s time to be holy. The King Is Coming!

Biblical Zionist Israel Will Be Removed For Antichrist Rule

Zionist Israel is falling apart

December 1, 2014 · by ivarfjeld · in 1. ·

The Biblical Zionist state has to be removed before the final antichrist can rule in Jerusalem. The Pope is hailed and he is ready.

The leaders in Israel will abandon Biblical Zionism, and put their trust in the Papacy.

The “Jewish state” bill should have been introduced and made Israeli law in 1967. That year, the city of Jerusalem was liberated from Israeli occupation, together with the Jewish districts of Judea and Samaria.
The delay in annexing former occupied Jewish land into proper Israel, and make the state of Israel a Jewish state, is no threatening the foundation of Biblical Zionism.
Lets see what the Bible explain to be just ahed of us:
2 Thessalonians 3:4
Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
The Pope equalize him self with God, claiming to be “The Holy Father”.  Jesus the Messiah said do not call any religious leader “father”, only God the almighty.

2 Thessalonians 2:7
For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.
First when Biblical Zionism is removed, the final man of lawlessness will have his way. To be blessed and hailed on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, is his ultinate aim.
2 Thessalonians 2:9-10
The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing.
The religious sign and wonders movement will fall into the trap, not understanding that Satan has the power to perform what looks like true miracles. Any kind of erronious doctrine is acceptable to them, as long as the false teacher can perform a miracle.
2 Thessalonians 2:8
And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.
The last and final antichrist must be revealed, and he must be permitted to rule. Than Lord Jesus will return, kill the man of sin and bring stern judgment on all his followers.
In 1993, the state of Israel was lured into a trap by the Kingdom of Norway.  The Islamic terror organization al-Fatah (PLO) was gifted a base in Samaria. The Vatican backed terror-group was just what the papacy needed, in a bid to push Zionism out of East Jerusalem, and the Mountains of Zion. The process of changing the nature of the 1948 Zionist state could begin. Replaced by a universal statehood,  who will be like all other nations.
The Pope has ruled in Jerusalem. The Roman Catholic Kingdom of Jerusalem lasted form 1099 A.D till 1291 A.D. Now the Holy See plan to return to Jerusalem, and this time hailed as a global “peace makers”. Every Zionist Jew who blocks this “peace plan” will be branded as a “terrorist” and an “enemy of peace”.

The Pope can hardly wait to be hailed as a global peace maker, elevated in the city of Jerusalem.

The Bible is crystal clear that there can be no true peace, before the return of the Messiah. Neither is the Pope, nor any of his followers  are anything but antichrists. And the present Jesuit Pontiff the very best candidate to be presented at the podium, made ready for the last man of lawlessness. He will eventually enter Jeruslaem, and being hailed by the multitudes.
The “Jewish state bill” is now threatening to bring down a proper Zionist government in Jerusalem. To the gross happiness of both anti-Zionist Israelis and disconnected gentiles. We are quickly approching the end of the age. Very soon the Papists among us will have their way, and a brief rule of the wicked will start.
Behold: All who will become martyrs, refusing to bow before the last and final antichrist will be brought back to life when the Messiah return in all His glory. And all the God-mockers will face an iron rod and judgment.  They were told the truth, but refused to repent. Their final destiny will be the eternal fire of Hell.
Repent, or perish.
