The Death of the Second Earth

 

 

 

 

There is a false and delusional optimism fostered fervently by the relativists who comprise the majority of the movers and shakers of our global elite, as they tirelessly and ardently preach with the conviction of a fundamentalist, that human nature can be perfected by government and that a future utopia is attainable through globalism.

 

 

The proactive use of the public educational system as a tool of indoctrination to enable them to psychologically manipulate the masses toward their global ends has been thus far quite effective. The majority of the unthinking public has uncritically accepted the globalist agenda, spurred by their natural desire for world peace.

 

 

It may sound logical on the surface that disarming all nations and world citizens would remove the weapons of war and consequently the senseless and endless wars brought about by man’s greed and avarice. But, the weapons will still be there; only in the hands of a few- the ones controlling the global forces.

 

 

 This is a dangerous illusion, for weapons do not make war- man does. And the concentration of power, without a counter to check and balance it, will undoubtedly inexorably lead us to tyranny and slavery. Peace in the world cannot come without peace in our souls. Human government cannot perfect our souls. Our founding forefathers understood the basic dilemma of human government, and for this reason, they placed into our government the division of power in an attempt to forestall the inevitable decline into tyranny that all manmade governments eventually devolve into. Human history has amply documented as empirical data, which ratifies the absolute veracity of the axiom, that: “Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” The centralization of power shall always foment tyranny and abuse.

 

 

Their well-conceived United Religions Initiative will become a powerful tool to influence the masses toward their desired globalist agenda through a syncretic theology, which rabidly opposes religions, which do not conform to their syncretic doctrines, labeling them as intransigent and intolerant, narrow-minded bigots.

The White Rider:

 

A Private Oracle of Yom Kippur

 

 

Behold the White Rider with gleaming Spear held high. The radiance of the gleaming Spear flashes from His Right Arm. Its’ name is “Indignation.” Behold the blinding light flashing from the spear. Staggering, stumbling, blinded, the Oppressors fall back. His face, flush with righteous anger, shines like the noonday sun. Behold how He tramples the nations, as He goes forth with salvation for His people. All eyes marvel at His majesty. And yet, in the midst of His fulminating Wrath, He tenderly remembers Mercy for His chosen. The righteous shall live by faith.

 

 

Behold the proud ones, hardened, calloused and bold. They melt before Him like wax before fire. The East wind is blowing. With His fierce wind He will expel them on the day of the east wind. He will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives. Their chariots of war thunder, as smoke rises from their fury. Do not fear! Stand by and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you, for the Redeemer is coming to Zion.

 

 

 Who is this who comes with garments of glowing colors? God comes from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran to revive His work in the midst of the years. He comes marching in the greatness of His strength. Why is your apparel red? “I have trodden the wine trough alone. I trod them with anger, and trampled them in My wrath and their blood is sprinkled in My garments.” Make no mistake; the cup of the Lord’s Right Hand will come around to you. Which will be your lot? Will it be Mercy or Indignation?

 

 

Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies. Thy Right Hand shall find out those that hate thee. Thou shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger. The Lord shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the fire shall devour them. The Lord comes from afar with burning anger and dense clouds of smoke. His lips are full of wrath, and His tongue is a consuming fire. His breath is like a rushing torrent rising up to the neck.

 

 

The Global Nature of the Islamic Threat 

 

 

 

 

 

1-                  The Global Problem- In the morning of September 11, 2001, America was abruptly awakened to the reality of the Islamic terrorist threat to our homeland. This was one of those watershed moments in history that causes a paradigm shift in our culture. America would never be the same. Who can forget the gruesome scene, as the

Twin

Towers collapsed killing thousands inside and injuring many others? Most of us watched in utter dismay, wondering how someone could be so cruel as to sacrifice their own lives, in order to kill so many innocent civilians. Who would do such a thing? What could cause someone to sacrifice his life to kill so many others?

In the aftermath of the 9-11 tragedy in

New York , western academia myopically blamed Islamic aggression on western colonialist policies. To believe this is to deny the entire history of Islam’s imperialistic aggression on all other religions and nations. The reason for the destruction of the

Twin

Towers in our age is in fact the very same reason that Islam has attacked each of the countless nations of the world in their past history. It is simply part of their deeply ingrained theological construct derived from the Koran and the Hadith.

 

 

 

 

Some have charged that our nation’s relationship with Israel is to blame. No doubt the Jews have faced the brunt of their violence in our generation. However, the western nations must understand that the Jews are not the only victims of Islam. Islamic aggression is not just a problem for the Jews. It is a problem for the entire Free World. Their hatred for Jews is undeniable. But, the violence toward those they deem to be “infidels” has historically been waged on all other religions and peoples, including non-Muslim Arabs. Violent aggression toward unbelievers is condoned and even commanded by the Koran.

 

 

 

 

There are some moderate Muslims, which intuitively understand the error of this terrorist agenda fostered by the Koran, and have attempted to reform the aggressive, militaristic Jihadist movement by declaring these verses in the Koran to be irrelevant to our present age. They have through different hermeneutical tactics claimed that these verses only applied to early Islam. Unfortunately, their theological construct is little accepted amongst most other Muslims.

What is the religion of Abraham? What is the true religion of the Hebrew Scriptures? Is the modern Jewish religion truly the representative of the true Hebrew faith? Is Yeshua the Hebrew Messiah prophesied in the Hebrew Scriptures? How can one know? The answer to all these questions can be found only in the writings of the Hebrew Scriptures. If you are of the seed of Abraham physically, then it is your duty to search the Hebrew Scriptures and to ask God to illuminate you and give you guidance, through His Holy Spirit, so that you might learn the truth. But, can we trust the Hebrew Scriptures to give us the same message that it contained when they were inspired so many years ago? Have they not been changed through the many years of transcribing? We have already mentioned in the Introduction that the Dead Sea Scrolls, which had been written 2,000 years ago, prove that the Hebrew Scriptures have remained preserved by God and their message remains unchanged. But, what did the Hebrew people believe about their prophesied Messiah 2,000 years ago, when the Dead Sea Scrolls were redacted?

Let us then turn to these scrolls in order to catch a glimpse of the beliefs of the Jews living in the time of the Second Temple. The Hebrew sect responsible for stashing these scrolls in the caves along the shore of the Dead Sea nearby the Qumran community was the third Jewish sect that had vied for the hearts and minds of the Jews in the era after the return from the Babylonian captivity. Most scholars believe that the Qumran community was composed of members of the sect called Essenes. These were dedicated, austere and sincere individuals, which wanted no part of the political maneuverings in which the Sadducees and the Pharisees thrived. They practiced an austere and strict moral code and rejected the many extra-biblical man-made laws invented by the Pharisees. These Pharisees, they claimed were in the business of making up these laws as a way to impress others with their false spirituality and they mockingly referred to them in these scrolls, as the ‘Flattery Seekers’.

Many Jews, on the basis of the following, five major objections, have rejected the legitimacy of Yeshua’s claim. These objections have, since the time of the Pharisees, been promoted among the Chosen People of God, keeping them from investigating their own prophets in this matter. I will list these objections first and then endeavor to answer them one by one.

1. The first of these objections is a clever twist of the truth, which, at first glance, to any rational person, seems reasonable and right. I am speaking of the truthful charge that no man could ever become God. As a matter of fact the very first sin of man, when Satan in the Garden of Eden tempted him, was precisely engineered by the Serpent to undermine the most important element of God’s revealed truth in this matter. Satan lied to Adam and Eve, when he told them that, with the eating of the forbidden fruit, they could be as God. There is but One God and no man could ever become God, of this one thing you can be eternally sure! Yeshua would be the first, to not only agree with this statement, but also to emphasize it, with more resolve, intensity and authority than any human would or could. The fact is simply that no human could ever become God, but God, on the other hand, is not bound by anything except His righteousness. Is it therefore, illogical to believe that the Omnipotent God of this Universe could, if He chose to, become man? Is it contrary to the central and primordial theological premise of the Holy Scriptures that there is but One God, the Creator of heaven and earth, to concede that He could choose to take on human form in order to accomplish His will? Is this task too great for Him?

The obvious answer is clear to any Jew that understands the omnipotence of God and the only matter that remains to be determined is whether or not God has declared in His Scriptures that it was His will to do just that. Therefore, the responsibility that is an intrinsic duty to all Jews, and for that matter any Gentile also, is to look into the Hebrew prophets in order to understand what God has said about the coming of the Hebrew Messiah. It is incumbent upon all the descendents of Abraham to know the mind of the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob and to explore the life and death of the One who claims to be the Jewish Messiah, in order to ascertain the truth of it all.

The Sadducees, the Pharisees, the Essenes, and The Way (Christianity)

The exchange of yokes, from the Greek to the Roman taskmasters, did little to alleviate the previous pressures endured during the Greek occupation. The Pharisees were once again thrust against another attempt to assimilate their culture; this time their captors attempted to “Romanize” the Hebrew culture. The inability of the Jews to gain freedom and independence in their religious beliefs lent understandably, toward a tendency of seclusionism and disdain for their Gentile captors. The Gentile captors had been accustomed to the practice of assimilating the religious beliefs of their captives and creating a syncretic union that they felt was advantageous in their struggle to consolidate and to maintain control of these nations. When confronted with the Jewish monotheistic religion, they were faced with a core group of believers that refused to create a syncretic amalgamation of pagan and Jewish beliefs. Many of the Jews knew the truth and there was no room for capitulation and compromise, to the great frustration of the Greeks and Romans.

These same pressures to conform to a satanic compromise will, once again, play out in the history of Yisra’el, for when the Prince of Darkness comes that will make Jerusalem desolate, it will be because of the abomination that Daniel has prophesied. What is this abomination? There is no doubt in my mind that it will be the desecration of the Temple by the Antichrist, claiming that he is the Messiah and God. No doubt, he will be peddling his pantheistic, occult, syncretic, One World Religion; claiming that we can all become gods, through initiation into the occult and subsequent demon possession. Of course they will not refer to it as demon possession, they will guise their sinister plot through clever phrases to misinform the masses (see “The Ancient Wisdom”, New Age, Occultism and Pantheism.).

Although Israel’s isolationist mentality, at that juncture in their history was originally motivated by their desire to disassociate, with those that were trying to water down their truths, it eventually led to an overcompensation, which went against God’s purpose to use them as ministers of the light, to the unbelieving world.

Religious Existentialism and Tielhard de Chardin

      The 20th Century brought the existential philosophy into the realm of theology and radically changed the vast majority of Christian denominations. The New “existentially- based theology” created rifts and splits in veritably all the major denominations.
      This New Theology has permeated, not only all Christian denominations, but also it has managed to make inroads into the Jewish religion, as well as the Islamic faith.  If an individual were to listen to a Neo-orthodox (religious existentialist) talk, there would be very little in the verbiage or language used that would differentiate him from a more orthodox individual.  The difference is not in the words, but in the content or meaning they assign to those words.  They may talk about the “Cross of Christ” but mean something completely different from what a traditional Christian would understand by these words.  Traditional Christianity, when speaking of the Cross of Christ, speaks of the universal God stepping into time and space, becoming incarnate and willingly sacrificing his human life upon the cross for the express purpose of fulfilling God’s demand for judicial satisfaction for sin.  Not His sin, for He was sinless, but the sins of the world.  By His substitutionary death and through His shed blood, the penalty of sin was met.  On the third day He resurrected from the dead, declaring His power over death and sin and heralding His divine license to forgive.
The Neo-Orthodox would use these Christian phrases only as connotative, or symbolic words devoid of historical reality.  Their express purpose is to use emotive phrases, which create a religious feeling, without adherence to the true meaning or content of the words.  They do not believe in a uniformity of causes in an open system, but rather have abrogated their theological position to the existentialist camp.  They believe in the divided field of knowledge; belief in God is not achieved through a rational process, it is a mystical faith.  Belief in God is simply a blind leap of faith, faith in faith.  It is not faith in the historical and verifiable person of Christ. Therefore, when they speak of the “cross of Christ”, they are not referring to a real space-time historical event, but to a universal, or generalized feeling of sacrifice for the welfare of humanity.
      Their use of “God words” is only for emotive effect; there is no attempt to discern content.  Religion is allocated to the irrational unverifiable sector of the divided field of knowledge. 
In essence, these individuals are simply nothing more than atheists, existentialists, and or pantheists, which cannot live in the harshness and sterility of their lower story (by this I mean the rational sector of the divided field of knowledge). Therefore, they leap by blind faith into the irrational sector, while still maintaining by strict definition a closed system.           

 

Jung and the Shadow

 

The evolutionary presupposition that ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny is also reflected in the field of psychology by the concept that Freud’s personality theory developed, namely that our personalities reflect and are developed determinalistically by our past. Jung went a step farther and posited that we have an evolutionary collective memory from our collective past that creates in us a collective unconsciousness, which deeply affects our personality.

 

“Jung believed that just as each of us accumulates and files all of our personal experiences in the personal unconscious, so does humankind collectively as a species, store the experience of the human and pre-human species in the collective unconscious. This heritage is passed to each new generation.
Whatever experiences are universal- those that are repeated relatively unchanged by each generation- becomes part of our personality. Our primitive past becomes the basis of human psyche, directing and influencing present behavior.” (Theories of Personality, by Duane Schultz, Sydney Ellen Schultz, Brooks/Cole Publishing Co., Pacific Grove, California, 1998, pg. 92)

 

He then moved one step further and claimed that our personalities were not just determined by our past, but could also be influenced by our future, as man seeks self-actualization. He, like Fromm, also saw man as having a transcendent need and theorized that the drive to self-actualize would overpower his influences in his early developmental years. This opened the door for the “human potential movement”, which later developed as a natural outworking of this and created an escape from the determinism and pessimism of Freud. Although, Jung conceptualized the conflict in a different terminology, he also was unable to provide a real solution, within the naturalistic framework. However, he must also be credited for stepping forth and admitting that man does have a transcendent need, even though he cannot create a basis for this; this admission is quite a step in a naturalistic system and is evidence of its deficiency to explain the way man is.
 I want to digress a bit here, because I believe that it is crucial in understanding the direction and in recognizing the forces behind that direction in the evolution of existential philosophy.  It is well documented that Jung’s mother was steeped in the occult and that he periodically spoke to “apparitions”.

 

Embracing the Beast

 

“In 1914, at the beginning of our ill-fated twentieth century, a storm broke out over this civilization, a storm the size and range of which no one at that time could grasp. For four years Europe destroyed herself as never before, and in 1917 a crevasse opened up on the very edge of Europe, a yawning gap enticing the world into an abyss.
The causes of the crevasse are not hard to find: it was the logical result of doctrines that had been bandied about in Europe for ages and had enjoyed considerable success. But this crevasse has something cosmic about it, too, in its unplumbed, unsuspected depths, in its unimaginable capacity for growing wider and wider, and swallowing up more and more people.” (Warning to the West, by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Ferrar, Straus and Giroux, New York, 1976, pg.128)
