Next time you run into someone who acts as if they figured it all out when they throw a verse or two at you, have them do a search of these <em>nine lethal words</em> in the Bible which renders their entire theology, modern commentaries they use, historic revisions and centuries of reformation theology to become completely obsolete.</p><p>What you are about to read will <em>blow you away</em>:</p><p><strong>THE FIRST LETHAL WORD IN PSALM 132: "AND"</strong><br />You might consider the word "and" insignificant until you run into Psalm 132 when David says that the Ark of the Covenant is assumed to heaven with God<em>: </em></p><blockquote><p><em>"</em>Go up Lord, to the place of your rest [heaven], you <strong>and</strong> the ark of your might!". (Psalm 132:8)</p></blockquote><p>Do you see this "and"? This one word alone renders countless interpretations, books, websites, reformations and <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.google.com/#q=Ark+covenant+Jesus">commentaries</a> that claim that the Ark is Christ becomes <em>worthless</em>.</p><p>None of these commentaries can answer a simple Jesus-style question: <em>how do you paint the Ark as symbolic of Jesus if both, this Ark <strong>and</strong> Jesus went up to heaven?</em></p><p>This word "<strong>and</strong>" leaves no room to maneuver. The only option is that God assumed into heaven a literal box called "the Ark of the Covenant".</p><p>But this is impossible, especially when <a class="rtBibleRef" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblia.com/bible/esv/Revelation%2021.2%E2%80%933" data-reference="Revelation 21.2–3" data-version="esv" data-purpose="bible-reference">Revelation 21:2–3</a> declares that "the dwelling place of God is with man." God in heaven does not dwell with a box anymore. That plus the whole context of the Book of Hebrews and Jeremiah 3:16 was that God was done with such things.</p><p>Some might argue that this prophecy pertains to the literal Ark and that David is simply going together with the Ark to the Temple in Jerusalem's Mount Zion.</p><p>But this too is impossible. The text clearly puts this matter to rest:</p><blockquote><p>"Because Lord Jehovah is pleased in Zion and he chose it a dwelling place. This is my rest<strong> to an eternity of eternities</strong>; here I shall sit because I desired it.”</p></blockquote><p>There is no question this is the <em>heavenly</em> not earthly <em>Mount Zion</em> where the Ark resides. The Bible even confirms this:</p><blockquote><p>And the <strong>temple of God</strong> was opened <strong>in heaven</strong>, and there was seen in his temple <strong>the ark of his testament </strong>(Revelation 11:19)</p></blockquote><p>Is this mount Zion on earth? Never.</p><p>But it even gets better when we examine translations of Psalms 132:8 from the Septuagint:</p><blockquote><p>Arise, O Lord, into thy resting place: thou and the ark, which <em><strong>thou hast sanctified [made holy, sinless]</strong></em>. (Psalm 132:8)</p></blockquote><div>Did the Jews mistranslate the Bible from Hebrew to Greek? Impossible. They understood that this ark was protected from sin "sanctified".</div><p>All this leaves us with only one option: the Ark is not Christ or a box but the Woman Who housed Christ in her womb.</p><p>Why then would it make any sense to accept the Ark-Box and reject the Ark-Mother?</p><p>Even the first living savior of Israel, Moses, came in an "ark" (Exodus 2:5) and in Noah's day, who mocked his mighty Ark where the ones consumed by the flood.</p><p>How one can find truth is simple: see what the world abhors the most and you will find what God loves the most. God sent angels to the most abhorred of society, poor shepherds, and chose to be born in a lowly place: Bethlehem.</p><p>But within the same Psalm lays more lethal words no one pays attention to:</p><p><strong>THE SECOND AND THIRD LETHAL WORDS IN PSALM 132 ARE "EPHRATAH" AND "YA'AR"</strong><br />Protestant commentaries are mystified about this Psalm since the Ark was never placed in Bethlehem. But the text insists it was in a strange place called "Ya'ar":</p><blockquote><p>"Lo, we heard of it [the Ark] at [Bethlehem] <em><strong>Ephratah</strong></em>: we found it in the <em><strong>fields of Ya'ar" </strong></em>(Psalm 132:6)</p></blockquote><p>Hearing about the Ark being in "Ephratah" and then discovering about it in "Ya'ar" is unheard of. Scholars attempt to solve the riddle. Barnes Notes is stunned:</p><blockquote><p>"There is no mention in the history of the fact that the ark was "heard of" at Ephrata, or that it was ever there. The name Ephrata - אפרתה 'ephrâthâh - is applied".</p></blockquote><p>Then <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblehub.com/commentaries/psalms/132-6.htm">Cambridge Bible l</a>inks Kiriath-jearim as this "Ephrathah" and that "Ya'ar" is in the neighbourhood of Kiriath-jearim where the Ark had rested for many years in the house of Abinadab (<a title="And the men of Kirjathjearim came, and fetched up the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD...." target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblehub.com/context/1_samuel/7-1.htm">1 Samuel 7:1-2</a>).</p><p>But this is impossible, Kiriath-jearim is way too far north of Jerusalem and it is not Ephratah. That plus  Kiriath-jearim is on a hill where the text strictly says that Ya'ar is in the "<em>Fields of Ya'ar" </em>a <em>field</em> not a <em>hill</em>.</p><p>In fact, what most do not know is that Psalm 132 was speaking of the angelic annunciation of the birth of the Savior according to Luke's gospel. During my youth I spent all my summers in the Fields of Ya'ar which was known from the time of St. Helena who marked it.</p><p>I shall show with pin-point accuracy that it was Mary (not a box) Who finally rested in Bethlehem Ephratah to give birth. The moment the child was born at the dawning of the day, the angels pronounced this birth at the <em>fields of Ya'ar</em>.</p><p>This place was known throughout history as the <em>Fields of the Shepherds</em> (Shepherd's Fields).</p><p>This is where an angelic host announced to the shepherds instructing them at dawn (when it was still dark) to go up to Bethlehem Ephratah to see the birth of Christ where they also found His Ark (Mary).</p><p>Today anyone can visit the village of <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ar&u=https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%25D8%25A8%25D9%258A%25D8%25AA_%25D8%25B3%25D8%25A7%25D8%25AD%25D9%2588%25D8%25B1&prev=search">Beit Sahar</a> (House of the Dawn, my own birthplace) in the vicinity of Bethlehem to the east.

We from Bethlehem can even pin-point it. Its the only little forestry area in the Fields of the Shepherds in Beit Sahour, Bethlehem-Ephratah.</p><div id="attachment_111185" style="width: 1110px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/4189682_orig.jpg"><img alt="" class="wp-image-111185 size-full" height="736" sizes="(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/4189682_orig.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/4189682_orig.jpg 1100w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/4189682_orig-300x201.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/4189682_orig-768x514.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/4189682_orig-1024x685.jpg 1024w" width="1100" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Artwork at Is-yaar (the Forrest Field, Shepherd's Fields) commemorating the very spot the angels came to announce the birth of Christ by St. Mary (the Ark) in Bethlehem</p></div><p>The place was marked by St. Helena the <em>mother</em> of the future Emperor <em>Constantine</em> the Great (reigned 306–337).

Esh-Yaar would mean the <em>Fire of Yaar </em>David's mighty warrior from Bethlehem.</p><p>The names passed down by tradition, the archeological site and its history makes a compelling case this is speaking of Mary giving birth to Christ. By this, Psalms 132 becomes a prophecy regarding the announcement of the birth of the savior, something no modern commentary even considers. But once Psalm 132 is cross-referenced with the rest of scripture it becomes a compelling case that the Ark was Mary and now the Apocalypse becomes clear as we shall see.</p><p>But there is even more, Psalm 132 speaks of Mary's womb as this Ark.</p><p><strong>THE FOURTH LETHAL WORD IN PSALM 132: "WOMB"</strong><br />But Psalm 132 even packs more secrets, something no modern commentary even considers. It declares the Ark bringing forth the Messiah will be coming from "David's womb" and not "David's loins" as Protestant bibles translate. Author and expert, Fr Christopher P. Kelley, DD brought to my attention the major mistranslation in Psalm 132:11:</p><blockquote><p>"The LORD hath sworn <i>in</i> truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy<em><strong> body</strong></em> will I set upon thy throne." (Psalm 132:11 KJV)</p></blockquote><p>But the Hebrew word they translate as "body" is "Beten" (Womb) and since men do not have wombs they translated it "o<em>f the fruit of thy body," or "of the fruit of thy loins</em>".</p><p>Only the Catholic Douay Rheims translates it correctly:</p><blockquote><p>"The Lord hath sworn truth to David, and he will not make it void: of the fruit of thy <strong>womb</strong> I will set upon thy throne." (Psalm 132:11, in DRB is 131:11)</p></blockquote><p>But again, the Hebrew word they translated for 'body' or 'loins' is "<em>Beten</em>" which can only mean "womb".</p><p><em>Beten</em> can never mean "body" or "loins"! Impossible. Not in a million years.</p><p>The verse mystified translators. Even Strong's could not escape it explaining that <em>Beten</em> is "the belly," "especially the womb" "as they are born, within, womb" "being female member" yet they apply the wrong translation.</p><div id="attachment_111182" style="width: 435px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/beten.jpeg"><img alt="" class="wp-image-111182" height="265" sizes="(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/beten.jpeg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/beten.jpeg 606w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/beten-300x187.jpeg 300w" width="425" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">But Beten here is "womb"</p></div><p>Anti-Catholic translators wanted nothing to do with a Psalm that revealed the Ark had a literal womb.</p><p>The verse was not speaking of a descendant in the male line, but in the female line.</p><p>Next time you talk about the 'lying media' think of the 'lying commentaries' and the 'lying translations' most run to for the womb of their comfort.</p><p>No modern commentary can escape this lethal flaw. Throughout scripture when it came to men, God used "loins": "kings shall come out of thy <span id="yui-gen51" class="criteria">loins" (Genesis 35:11), "thy son that shall come forth out of thy <span id="yui-gen94" class="criteria">loins" (1 Kings 8:19), "For he was yet in the <span class="criteria">loins</span> of his father, when Melchisedec met him" (Hebrews 7:10), "<span id="yui-gen43" class="criteria">thy</span> son that shall come forth out of <span id="yui-gen41" class="criteria">thy</span> <span id="yui-gen42" class="criteria">loins" (1 Kings 1:19) </span>...</span></span></p><p>And when it came to women God usually used "womb": "And the LORD said unto her, Two nations <em id="yui-gen37">are</em> in thy <span id="yui-gen38" class="criteria">womb" (Genesis 25:23), "he opened her <span class="criteria">womb</span>: but Rachel <em>was</em> barren" (Genesis 29:31), "loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her <span class="criteria">womb</span>" (1 Samuel 1:5), "of my mother's <span id="yui-gen112" class="criteria">womb" (Job 1:21) ...</span></span></p><p>Except of course only when it came to Psalms 132, God strictly used womb only for King David because this was the virgin birth and is why the ancient Jews recognized this and translated "virgin" instead of "maiden".</p><p>Now the prophecy is not only the announcement of the birth of Messiah by Mary, but it is also a prophecy of the <em>virgin birth</em> and the <em>assumption of Mary</em> that so many reject.</p><p>The Septuagint which was held by Jews at the time to be "more inspired" than the Hebrew text, because of the miracle of its translation by devout men empowered by the Holy Spirit translated <em>Beten</em> correctly as "womb". These added depth and specificity to the prophecy of Isaiah and in the Psalms to indicate a virgin birth and is why St. Jerome translating from the Septuagint to the Latin Vulgate had no issue with writing "<em>she shall crush your head</em>".</p><p>The NETS translation of the book of Psalms based primarily on the edition of Alfred Rahlfs, <em>Psalmi cum Odis</em> from the Septuagint is another good <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/nets/edition/24-ps-nets.pdf">translation of the Psalms</a> which even pronounces the names as I am accustomed to in Bethlehem where David is properly pronounced <em>Dauid (Dawid). </em>Most are unaware that the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet is a "w/u" and not a "v":</p><blockquote><p>The Lord swore to Dauid [Dawid] the truth, and he will never annul it: “<em><strong>Of your belly’s fruit</strong></em> I will set on your throne." (Psalms 132:11 NETS)</p></blockquote><p>Here too it is not 'loins', the Hebrew <em>Beten</em> (womb) is very clear. For centuries even King David's name is mispronounced.</p><p>Even Elizabeth’s famous description of Mary’s son Jesus in Luke 1:42, it says: “the fruit of thy womb” which perfectly matches the Septuagint version in Psalm 132:11:</p><blockquote><p>ὁ   καρπὸς τῆς κοιλίας σου—Luke 1:42 "blessed <em id="yui-gen138">is</em> the fruit of thy womb"  (to Mary)</p><p>ἐκ καρποῦ τῆς κοιλίας σου—Psalm 132:11 LXX "of the fruit of thy womb" (to David)</p></blockquote><p>This is why Mary sang a psalm of praise to God. This would have been Psalm 132. This is why in Revelation 11:19 the Ark of the Covenant is seen in God's temple and then immediately following (Rev 12:1) it describes a pregnant woman clothed with the sun and moon under her feet.</p><p>And since David has no womb, signifying a virgin birth of a Messiah born of a <em>daughter</em> of David, an Ark that is 'sanctified' (sinless) and while a box-ark never rested in Bethlehem, but that a virgin gave birth in Bethlehem, to even hint at the angelic announcement in Luke and then this Virgin (Ark) is assumed to heaven as a separate being from the Messiah, makes Psalm 132 to be the most significant messianic prophecy in the entire scripture.</p><p>Yet no Protestant quotes it. None.</p><p>The laws of probability would make it impossible to have all this by mere chance. I did not convert to Catholicism easily. It took years worth of struggle and much painstaking digging for wells in the Word of God. In the end I found wells.</p><p>The ancient translators of the Septuagint where not Catholic either, but they knew better and is probably why they translated Almah (maiden) as "virgin" in Isaiah since they linked the seed of the woman (not man) with Psalm 132:11 'a womb of David's descendant'.</p><p>All this explains why when it comes to Genesis 3:15 Catholics are content with the following:  ‘I will put enmity between your seed [Satan] and the seed of the woman [Eve].  <strong>She </strong>will crush your head [Mary] and you will strike her heel.’</p><p>But Scripture reveals that the crushing of Satan’s head is through Christ.  However, King David lodged a stone pellet into Goliath's head and while ultimately this was brought about by the power of Jesus it is likewise done through Mary David's descendant.</p><p>In a sense, God is saying to Satan, “while you thought you triumphed over a woman [Eve], it is through a woman [Mary – the New Eve] that I will crush your head” and is why the Old Testament includes stories of women who foreshadow this head-crushing blow ; Judith 13:4-9 we read of Judith cutting off Holofernes’s head, Judges 4:21 Jael kills Sisera by driving a tent peg through his temple; Judges 9: 50–55 Abimelech is killed when a woman drops a millstone on his head.</p><p>Just one word "<em>Beten</em>" renders all translations except the Septuagint as 'found wanting'.</p><p>Mary is of David. This cannot be denied. As Fr. Kelley elaborated:</p><blockquote><p>"None can say that St Irenaeus did not know the Scriptures! The "New Shoot" from the "stump of Jesse" is through David's son, Nathan. None from that line had ever sat upon the Throne of Daivd in Jerusaelm. Maryam's line from David is through Nathan (- named for the Prophet who caught David in his sin)! (Lk. 3:31) "Heli" appears to be a "nickname" form of Joachim, her father, who is thus the "father-in-law" of Joseph (cf. Lk 3:23). Of course, St Elizabeth declared, "blessed is the Fruit of thy Womb" to Maryam, when she came to visit (Lk 1:42). She then uses an expression that will escape many who do not understand the Jewish reverence for the Sacred Name: "Why is this [privilege] granted to me that the Mother of my LORD should come to me?" (1:43) A Jew of that time would never use the term, "LORD", except for God. Elizabeth is declaring plainly that MARYAM is the MOTHER OF GOD, come in the Flesh, within her Womb. [See also 2Sam.6:9 - where David asks a similar question -- in reverent fear!] Maryam stays "three months" in the home of the priest Zachariah & his wife Elizabeth (certainly long enough to care for her in childbirth, and attend St John's Circumcision). (Lk 1:56)</p></blockquote><div class="message-wrapper"><div class="message"><blockquote><p>This fulfills the prefiguration when David put the Ark of the Covenant aside in the home of Obed-Edom (a Levitical priest) for three months (2Sam.6:11). All could see that the home of Obed-Edom was "Blessed" by the Presence of the Ark. Then David no longer feared the Ark, but proceeded -- with more care this time -- to take it up to Jerusalem.</p><p>The Ark contained three things (Hebrews 9:4): The Jar of Manna (Bread of Heaven), Aaron's Rod (Sign of High Priesthood), & Tables of the Law (God's Word written by His Finger on Stone). Now Maryam's Womb contained Him Who Is the Bread of Heaven, the Great High Priest, & the Word of God made Flesh."</p></blockquote><p>And the first Christians completely understood Psalm 132. Gregory the Wonder Worker (c. 213–c. 270) wrote:</p><blockquote><p>"Let us chant the melody that has been taught us by the inspired harp of David, and say, ‘Arise, O Lord, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy sanctuary.’ For the Holy Virgin is in truth an ark, wrought with gold both within and without, that has received the whole treasury of the sanctuary" (Homily on the Annunciation to the Holy Virgin Mary).</p></blockquote><p>All this combined is the accurate interpretation instead of what came in the 19th century attributing the Ark to strictly portray Christ. No, it is St. Mary Who housed the Christ, the Manna from heaven, the Great High Priest and the Word of God made Flesh.</p><p>God does not operate in a vacuum. The Ark was the womb containing Jesus, the bread of life come down from heaven (John 6:41) God is about <em>life</em> and not <em>boxes</em>. Man can only make boxes while only God can become man.</p><p>Someone is out to deceive the world alluding that the Ark is strictly symbolic of Christ. They painted the Ark as if it signified deity and by that <em>they inadvertently sanctified and even deified Mary</em> while they accused the only remaining two lampstands; the Catholics and Orthodox of the very thing they themselves were guilty of: <em>the worship of Mary</em>.</p><p>All <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://christinprophecy.org/articles/the-ark-of-the-covenant/">the talk</a> of the Ark being "acacia wood [which] symbolized our Lord’s humanity. The gold overlay denoted His deity" is simply that the wood symbolized our Mother's humanity and the gold overlay denoted her purity not being prone to sin.</p><p>Today only two poles carry her; one Orthodox and the other Catholic. These are the only two who can enter the temple, participate in the perpetual sacrifice and are measured for testing and persecution while all others who are in the outer court are given to Antichrist to tread under foot.</p><p>Remember, there is no longer a physical temple and all prophecy that speaks of the temple speak of the true church in the altar.</p><p>The Virgin Mary is the living shrine of the Word of God, Christ. Therefore, she is the Ark of the New and Eternal Covenant. The problem with most modern interpretation of prophecy is their ignorance on the nature of dual fulfillments regarding the same prophecies or the application regarding typology.</p><p>Pay close attention: prior to Christ's coming, we must take a <em>literal</em> approach to a literal temple with everything in it, but after Christ we take a <em>typological</em> approach to everything temple with everything in it to be <em>applied to people</em>. God in heaven dwells with people: "the dwelling place of God is with man (<a class="rtBibleRef" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblia.com/bible/esv/Revelation%2021.2%E2%80%933" data-reference="Revelation 21.2–3" data-version="esv" data-purpose="bible-reference">Revelation 21:2–3</a>)</p><div class="message-wrapper"><div class="message"><p>Christ redefined the temple to be built on a different foundation which stems from Him to the apostles and prophets before them with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit. (Ephesians 2:20-22) This key is also explained in Hebrews 9.</p><p>Therefore, the Ark is no longer a box. This was clear throughout Christian history until the 19th century. Athanasius of Alexandria (c. 296–373) was the main defender of the deity of Christ against the second-century heretics:</p><blockquote><p>"O noble Virgin, truly you are greater than any other greatness. For who is your equal in greatness, O <strong>dwelling place of God the Word</strong>? To whom among all creatures shall I compare you, O Virgin? You are greater than them all O [Ark of the] Covenant, clothed with purity instead of gold! You are the ark in which is found the golden vessel containing the true manna, that is, <strong>the flesh in which divinity resides</strong>" (<em>Homily of the Papyrus of Turin</em>).</p></blockquote><p>But then the Ark reappears in Heaven as Psalm 132 declared it was assumed to heaven. The Woman clothed with the sun (Revelation 12) has all to do with what makes Mary the Ark of the New Covenant, the New Temple which is measured (tested).</p><p>Ever wonder why the whole context of Revelation 11-12 deals with persecution and the measuring (testing) of the earthly temple of God which is the Church? But what is this testing all about? Who is to be tested (persecuted) and who is not to be tested (not persecuted)?</p><p>Therefore, these chapters divide who is to be of Christ and who is to be of Antichrist.</p><div><p>And we find this theme throughout Daniel and the Apocalypse the true Christians are being tested on how we deal with Communion "Daily Sacrifice". Yet this "Daily Sacrifice" was later on misapplied to a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem. However, what follows from here will shock you beyond anything you have seen before:</p><p><strong>THE FIFTH, SIXTH, SEVENTH AND EIGHTH LETHAL WORDS: "PERPETUAL" "HOST" "ROME" "GRAIN"</strong><br />Daniel is strictly speaking of a perpetual sacrifice that is simply stopped and removed by allies of Antichrist. But who are these allies and who are his enemies? Enter another shocker:</p><blockquote><p>Yea, he magnified himself even to <strong>the prince of the host</strong>, and by him [the prince of the host] <strong>the perpetual</strong> [Hebrew ha tamid 'continual' sacrifice] was <u>taken away</u>, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. And <strong>an host was given him</strong> against the <strong>perpetual sacrifice</strong>, [Hebrew ha tamid] by <strong>reason of transgression</strong> [related to rebellion against Christ's authority], and it [the host] cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered [it grew to challenge the valid church]. (Daniel 8:11-12)</p></blockquote><p>Who are these "host" of peoples who aid the Antichrist? And what is this "Daily Sacrifice"? And what is the transgression they commit?</p><p>First of all, the Hebrew usually translated for "daily" in "daily sacrifice" is "<em>Tameed</em>" which means "<em>perpetual</em>" as translated in the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://qbible.com/brenton-septuagint/daniel/12.html">Septuagint</a>:</p><blockquote><p>"And from the time of the removal of the <em><strong>perpetual</strong></em> sacrifice, when the abomination of desolation shall be set up, [<i>there shall be</i>] a thousand two hundred and ninety days." (Daniel 12:11)</p></blockquote><p>What is shocking about all this is that it points to a split within Christendom itself where one side follows the Antichrist and the other side fights the Antichrist. Pay close attention to who opposes Antichrist:</p><blockquote><p>"And the galleys shall come upon him, and the Romans, and he shall be dealt a heavy blow."</p></blockquote><p>This verse already sets his natural enemies as southern Europe the closest nations to Asia Minor. Today Erdogan of Turkey (just as Protestants who hate Rome) has already voiced his hatred towards the Vatican in Rome declaring a coming war between Cross and Crescent.</p><p>When Turkey invades Egypt the southern European states (Chittim which constitutes Italy, Spain and Greece) translated as "Romans" will deal Turkey a heavy blow defeating them. One can imagine the indignation against the Vatican. Therefore, scripture says that the alliances Antichsit will have is with:</p><blockquote><p>"<em><strong>an host given him</strong> against the <strong>perpetual </strong></em><strong>[sacrifice]</strong> and <em>by reason of <strong>transgression </strong></em>[related to rebellion against Christ's authority, the Church], <em>and it [the host] <strong>cast down the truth</strong> to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered [to stand against the Romans]. </em>(Daniel 8:11-12)</p></blockquote><p>So this 'host' of peoples deny and hates the 'daily sacrifice'.</p><p>But who else today but Protestants who daily issue anathemas accusing the Catholic "daily sacrifice" to be <em>re-sacrificing Christ</em>?</p><p>And which of the two are making a bigger fuss about Transubstantiation; Muslims or the Protestants?</p><p>Therefore, while Antichrist abolishes the Daily Sacrifice, he does it through this 'host' of peoples who ally with him: "and a <strong>host [are] given him</strong> [Antichrist] <strong>against the perpetual sacrifice</strong> and by reason of transgression ..."</p><p>By "reason of transgression" (sin) they are given to him because these did not repent to Christ through His ordinance. These believe that your sins are forgiven yesterday, today and forever and so they continue to sin and think nothing of it since they believe that they are forgiven already and therefore they are in sin "transgression".</p><p>But amazingly, the biblical text hits two demons in one stone when it exposes the enemy as well as it debunks the faulty accusation of 're-sacrificying Christ'.</p><p><em>Daniel uses ha-Tamid</em> "the <em>perpetual</em>" [sacrifice] which is only used once in scripture in Daniel 12:11.</p><p>This makes many compelling arguments.</p><p><em>Tamid</em> by itself conveys the concept of “never stopping,” “ceaseless” or “perpetual” exactly as Catholics and Orthodox define the Communion as a "perpetual sacrifice" and not just a memorial for remembrance.</p><p>But the text uses the Hebrew "<em>Ha tamid".</em> This is unique since it says that <strong><em>“the </em></strong>ceaseless” or <strong><em>“the</em></strong> perpetual” or <strong><em>“the</em></strong> never stopping” is a single magnificent sacrifice that never ceased from its inception.</p><p><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-111161" height="361" sizes="(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/tameed.jpeg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/tameed.jpeg 601w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/tameed-300x180.jpeg 300w" width="601" /></p><p>This presents a lethal argument against Protestantism by a Jesus-style question: <em>if this is re-instituted animal sacrifice in some third rebuilt temple, Christ by His crucifixion abolished animal sacrifices. </em></p><p>Since this sacrifice is in perpetuity (continuance of the same sacrifice) any other interpretation besides the Eucharist will only speed up the quicksand blender draining the argument into the trash bin of history.</p><p>And since this is a "sacrifice" the counterargument would then have to insist that Daniel 11 must then be strictly applied to Antiochus Epiphanies who fulfilled this prophecy in 168 BC when he desecrated the temple and stopped the sacrifices.</p><p>Again, Christ's crucifixion abolished temple sacrifices. One cannot even apply them to Titus for he too did not abolish sacrifices.</p><p>Any faulty interpretation besides the Eucharist would render Christ as the Antichrist for He too abolished temple sacrifices when He was crucified. Anyone who attempts to sway from the Eucharist as the only interpretation will inadvertently blaspheme Christ making Him Antichrist.</p><p>Try it. The puzzle is set in a way that there is no way out as we shall examine further.</p><p>Therefore, there is only one sacrifice that can fulfill this which is the perpetual (continuance) same <em>sacrifice instituted by Christ.</em></p><p><em>This is the Eucharist no matter how one slices and dices the text.</em></p><p>Therefore, <em>Antiochus is a type</em> and the <em>ultimate fulfillment is with Antichrist</em> and <em>never some rebuilt temple</em>.</p><p>So this leaves no room to maneuver, the Jesus-style question then is: <em>how do you explain a sacrificial system with "grain offering" that never ceased (perpetual)?</em></p><p>Scripture even pin-points who these anti-Eucharist go against, the Romans (the Catholics):</p><blockquote><p>For the ships of <em><strong>Chittim</strong></em> [<strong>Romans</strong>] shall come against him [Antichrist]: therefore he shall be grieved, and return [retreat], and have <em><strong>indignation against the holy <span class="criteria">covenant</span></strong></em>: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have <em><strong>intelligence with them that forsake the holy <span id="yui-gen77" class="criteria">covenant</span></strong></em>.</p></blockquote><p>What we are dealing with here is pressure by Antichrist on the peoples who divided from the Roman Church which according to Daniel, these have 'transgressed' by rejecting God's authority established by Christ on earth in Rome when Peter and Paul established it and then Antichrist will work with the ones who <em>forsook the "Holy Covenant" of the Romans.</em></p><p>The text clearly reveals a reaction to the Romans as Antichrist is angered at them and therefore he conspires against them by colluding with Rome's enemies, the Protestants and other Catholic/Orthodox Arab syncretists who departed from the faith and polluted the perpetual sacrifice of the mass as we already are beginning to see happening in the Middle East which we explained in <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2017/02/11/the-antichrist-one-world-religion-is-coming-he-will-mix-islam-with-christianity-and-order-all-christians-to-follow-this-false-religion-all-those-who-refuse-will-be-beheaded/">detail here</a>.</p><p>The whole crux of the struggle with Antichrist is summed up here:</p><blockquote><p>"And such as do wickedly [syncretists, eugenists and Protestants] against the <span class="criteria">covenant</span> shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do <em id="yui-gen95">exploits</em>." (Daniel 11:32)</p></blockquote><p><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2017/04/29/the-mass-crucifixions-of-christians-the-holy-bible-reveals-the-most-fascinating-hidden-prophecy-predicting-muslims-becoming-evolutionists-will-genocide-christians-worldwide/">Wisdom 2 also gives much more detail on this issue</a> which we already see forming in parts of Europe and elsewhere. This proves beyond doubt that the Church God established will remain steadfast but in patches and valleys and wilderness where the "woman is nourished" that is "her seed" the seed of Mary who cannot live without the Eucharist is fed the Eucharist in secret.</p><p>Christ established His church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it and is why the text says:</p><blockquote><p>"but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do <em id="yui-gen95">exploits". </em></p></blockquote><p>Therefore, the falling away is not exclusively what we see happening from time to time in the Vatican but is also a <em>departure from the faith</em> protesting Vatican's authority, the Eucharist, the Church and Mary.</p><p>Transgressions are clearly to go against whom God ordained and it is not Geneva here that is mentioned but the very Rome that they so much hate. God will not destroy Rome but Mecca, the spiritual seat of Antichrist and He will destroy it by the hand of Antichrist (Isaiah 21, Revelation 13, Revelation 17).</p><p>Ever wonder why Protestants are taught that Rome is the Harlot?</p><p>These anti-Eucharist are the ones mentioned aiding Antichrist by instituting a prohibition against the "perpetual sacrifice" and is why it is always used with either the word “transgression” (<em>pesha</em>) or “abomination” (<em>shiqquwts</em>).</p><p>"Transgression” in all scripture always relates to rebellion against <em>God’s authority, law and covenant. </em></p><p>This is why we find Daniel warning about breaking the covenant in the same context with the "Grain Offering".</p><p>What I just stated gets Protestants to cringe which is evidence that we <em>defend</em> and they continually  <em>attack</em>. Who in the first place finagled the Word to make Rome harlot?</p><p>But we have the Word of God on our side. For in a million years they cannot remove the word "Chitim" who are the Romans who ordained the very Latin Mass we so much love. In the very Bible (they so much belabor about), it is Rome that is blessed and not Geneva. If they have an argument against us then let them find Geneva in the Bible while they cringe in anger. Rome is destined to be the "city of saints":</p><blockquote><p>"To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called <em>to be</em> saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ." (Romans 1:7)</p></blockquote><p>Rome was "called to be saints" and this too is a grand prophecy.</p><p>The <em>whole Word of God is prophetic</em> and Rome produced more saints than any other city on earth, while Spain and New Spain were next, where Our Lady, the Ark of the Covenant, appeared and blessed New Spain (Mexico). And with the New Spain these produced more saints than any other after Rome.</p><p>Yet our enemies call this miracle in Mexico as 'demonic' forgetting that the healing of the soul is the healing of Christ for the divided haters accused Christ the same way Protestants accuse us:</p><blockquote><p class="reg">But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “It is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons.” Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, <span class="red">“Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand. </span><span class="red">If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand?</span> <span class="red">And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.</span> <span class="red">But if it is by the Spirit of God that I drive out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.</span></p></blockquote><p>This too is prophetic. A kingdom divided cannot stand. This is true regardless that such divide happens to the Church or to the enemies of Christ.</p><p>But look at the accusation. When Christ does the miracle it is accused of being demonic. Ask them about the miracle of Our Lady of Guadalupe and they will instantly accuse it of bing demonic. But ask them to reproduce her miraculous image or the image on the Shroud of Turin and they will fail by adding more mockery.</p><p>It is indeed the story of Moses all over again and it gains global headlines when scientists carbon date the shroud to later on be baffled how they could never reproduce it and even later be baffled more when they discover their faulty evidence. So just as Moses was with the Hebrews confounding the pagans, Christ with us, the Emmanuel is still with us, even today confounding the scoffers.</p><p>And history with recurring prophecy proves this whole case we just explained here. Daniel’s people were in captivity because they had defied the covenant of the <i>Sabath. In </i>Malachi 1:10-11, God annulled the old sacrificial system and established a "<em>pure grain offering</em>" (Hebrew: Mincha). The mention of "grain offering" in the ancient Temple sacrifices is clearly in scripture, but a "<em>pure grain offering</em>" only exists once in Malachi and only pertains to including in and grafting in the Gentiles (the Church).</p><p>But Joel puts an end is to when these prophecies are fulfilled. It cannot be regarding Antiochus or Tutus or a rebuilt temple. Joel warns that prior to the day of the Lord that this grain offering will cease:</p><blockquote><p>“The grain offering [Bread] and the drink offering [wine]. Have been cut off from the house of the Lord [the Temple]; The priests mourn, who minister to the Lord … Alas for the day! For <strong>the day of the Lord</strong> is at hand; It shall come as destruction from the Almighty.”</p></blockquote><p>There is no escape, Joel specifically sets these prophecies to be fulfilled just prior to the Day of the Lord calling it "grain offering". This can never be about some historic event.</p><p>And with Daniel, the Little Horn will succeed in obtaining assistance from the Protestant world and by this you can see how the West is divided sheep from goat and wheat from tares "by reason of transgression” or “by transgression” (Hebrew: be’pasa).</p><p>This is a strong Hebrew word for rebellion against God. Contextually, once again, it is against God's authority, law and covenant of sacrifice and this is why "an host was given him against the <em>continual</em> [ha tamid] sacrifice". Daniel 8:13 as well reveals the enemy:</p><blockquote><p>"then I heard a heavenly saint asking another heavenly saint "How long shall be the vision concerning the perpetual [sacrifice] and the transgression [rebellion against the covenant of sacrifice] of desolation, to give both the sanctuary <em><strong>and the host</strong></em> to <em><strong>be trodden under foot</strong></em>?”</p></blockquote><p>We find this testing of the saints in Revelation 12 "measure the temple" (test it) and this 'host' in Daniel is the instrument of testing. This 'host' is to 'be trodden under foot' which Daniel 8:11 reveals the meaning:</p><blockquote><p><em>“Yea, he magnified himself even <strong>to the prince of the host</strong>, and <strong>by him</strong> [the prince of the host] the daily</em> <em>sacrifice</em> [<em>ha tamid</em>] <em>was <u>taken away"</u></em></p></blockquote><p>This makes everything clear. <em>This 'host' is the equation most ignore.</em> It is the rebellious 'host of peoples'. This host is 'trodden under foot' (controlled by) Antichrist and are used by Antichrist. This host of peoples have a "prince" whom Antichrist magnifies himself as an equal to and it is this 'prince of the rebellious host' who will desecrate the sacrifice (Eucharist). It is this ally who will persecute the Christians mocking the Eucharistic Sacrifice.</p><p><strong>THE NINTH LETHAL WORD: "ALTAR"</strong><br />If Daniel is the prophet for the Jews and for the Church, John is the Prophet that mirrors him, but strictly for the Church. Daniel's prophecies cannot be interpreted in a vacuum unless one links it to another crucial prophecy in Revelation 11-12 where the temple is measured (tested) and here Antichrist is given the court that does not participate in the perpetual sacrifice. Remember, Temple in the New Testament is the Church. Having this in mind you can now easily decipher:</p><blockquote><p>"And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and it was said to me: Arise, and <strong>measure</strong> [test] the temple of God, <em><strong>and the altar</strong></em> and them <em><strong>that adore therein</strong></em>. But the <em><strong>court, which is without the temple</strong></em>, <em><strong>cast out</strong></em>, and <strong><em>measure it not </em></strong><em>[do not test it through persecution]</em>: because it is <strong>given unto the Gentiles</strong> [the Antichrist], and the holy city [the Jerusalem of God] they shall tread under foot two and forty months" (Revelation 11:1-2)</p></blockquote><p>Everything fits. Like a glove. Daniel and John match. Keep in mind the rule of thumb; prior to Christ's coming, we must take a <em>literal</em> approach to a literal temple with everything in it, but after Christ we take a <em>typological</em> approach to everything temple with everything in it to be applied to people.</p><p>So the temple here is the Church, the entire Body of Christ here is measured (tested through persecution) by their participation in the proper covenant of sacrifice on an Altar "measure [test] the temple of God, <em><strong>and the altar</strong></em> and them <em><strong>that adore therein</strong></em>."</p><p>Who adores an "Altar"? Who adores the Eucharist? Are those the protestants?</p><p>What we see today is a mass exodus from the Eucharist. Catholics instead of participating in the Mass are doing another mass: a mass conversion to Protestantism.</p><p>In fact, this today constitutes one third of Christendom. Protestantism constitutes 800 million among approximately 2.4 billion Christians. Trim fat from meat it ends up the same: this would be 33%, a third, mostly in the U.S. and North Europe. And the scripture confirms:</p><blockquote><p>"And his tail <strong>drew the third</strong> part of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth" (Revelation 12:4).</p></blockquote><p>Stars of heaven here are who were considered brethren departing from their approach to heavenly Mount Zion. Remember "But you have come to [approach] Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to <strong>thousands upon thousands of angels</strong> in joyful assembly, to the <strong>church of the firstborn</strong>, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the <strong>spirits of the righteous made perfect</strong>, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel."</p><p>This is the "church of the firstborn" the primitive church whom they abandoned with it the supplications to saints and angels and also to Christ, the mediator.</p><p>These will tow the line of Antichrist. The "arms" and "host" who are with Antichrist are human forces.</p><p>And if fulfilled prophecy is the yardstick we can show proof:</p><blockquote><p>"Antiochus' <strong>hosts</strong> confederate with the <strong>apostate Israelites</strong>; these latter attain the climax of guilt, when they not only, as before, "<strong><i id="yui-gen40">forsake</i> the covenant</strong>" ( <a class="nowrap" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/daniel/11/30/s_861030">Dan 11:30</a> ), but "<i id="yui-gen33">do wickedly against</i>" it ( <a class="nowrap" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/daniel/11/32/s_861032">Dan 11:32</a>), turning complete heathens. Here Antiochus' actings are described in language which reach beyond him the type to Antichrist the antitype [JEROME] "</p></blockquote><p>But this will be fulfilled again in the church. These will be the ones not measured (tested) who are outside the Altar of Sacrifice (Eucharist). These are not part of the kingdom of Antichrist but are allied with him:</p><blockquote><p>"And <strong>arms</strong> shall stand <strong>on his part </strong>[to his side], and <strong>they</strong> shall defile the sanctuary of strength, and shall <strong>take away the continual sacrifice</strong>."</p></blockquote><p>Islam is not as adamant about opposing the Eucharist as the Protestants. This is a sad reality which can easily be deduced by asking a Jesus-style question: <em>provide the historic proof of what Muslims write opposing the Eucharist versus centuries of anti-Eucharist writing by Protestants? </em></p><p>I am not here attempting to dilute Islam's role, indeed, Islam is the religion of Antichrist and it would not mind prohibiting the practice of Christianity altogether, but when it comes to specifically the Eucharist, no enemy of Transubstantiation in their activism has matched the Protestants.</p><p>Even 1 John exposes that the acolytes of Antichrist stems from Christendom:</p><blockquote><p>Children, <strong>it is the last hour</strong>! As you have heard that <strong>antichrist is coming</strong>, so now many antichrists have come. From this we know that it is the last hour. <strong>They went out from us</strong>, but they <strong>did not belong to us</strong>; for if they had belonged to us, they <strong>would have remained with us</strong>. But by <strong>going out they made it plain that none of them belongs to us</strong>. 1 John 2:18-19</p></blockquote><p>This proves a major divide. "They went out from us, but they did not belong to us" makes it clear its a departure, splitting away is from the original ancient church "for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us". And all this is in the context of Antichrist.</p><p>Even Christ Himself, when He judges in Matthew 25 reveals this fact that we are no dealing with pagans. He is not judging heathens but separatists. Why else do they say "we healed in your name and cast devils ..."?</p><p>Yet He damns them because they either did nothing or participated in persecuting the true Church during the reign of Antichrist and is why He tells them of their persecutions: "just as you did it to the least of these My brethren you did it unto Me".</p><p>These, with Catholic accomplices, deeply rooted in the system will change the sacrifice and defile the  <em>sanctuary of strength</em>-not only military strength, but chiefly the <i>spiritual</i> stronghold of the covenant-people. During Antiochus, Apollonius "polluted" it with altars to idols and sacrifices of swine's flesh, after having "taken away the daily sacrifice".</p><p>Novices speak of the Roman attack on Jerusalem in AD 70, under Titus as fulfillment, but nowhere is there any historical evidence that Titus did what Antiochus did.</p><p>But they do this to point at Rome. But there was no desecration of the altar inside the Holy of Holies by Rome or was there any abolition of a sacrificial system by Rome.</p><p>In fact it was the Romans who aided Israel to finally defeat and thwart Antiochus who ordered his general, Apollonius into Jerusalem on what he claimed was a peaceful mission (peace treaty) and when he was inside the city, they attacked the Jews on a Sabbath, when the Jews were reluctant to break the Sabbath covenant.</p><p>Isn't this what the Antichrist will do?</p><p>Ever wonder why seven books are removed from Protestant bibles? Protestants do not read the <em>Roman–Jewish Treaty</em> which was etched in scripture. It was an agreement made between Judas Maccabeus and the Roman Republic in 161 BC. According to <a class="external text" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://bible.oremus.org/?passage=1+Maccabees+8:17%E2%80%9320:17&version=nrsvae" rel="nofollow">1 Maccabees 8:17-20</a> and Josephus, it was the first recorded conrtact between the Jewish people and the Romans. The treaty was signed during the <a title="Maccabean Revolt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maccabean_Revolt">Maccabean Revolt</a> against the Greco-Syrian Seleucid kingdom. During this period, Rome's power and influence in the Hellenistic world was growing. Rome had recently humiliated the Seleucid King Antiochus IV by ordering his troops to leave Egypt, and had previously defeated his father Antiochus III in battle. After winning a number of victories and capturing Jerusalem, Judas Maccabeus sent two emissaries, Eupolemus son of John son of Accos and Jason son of Eleazar, to establish a treaty of friendship with the Roman Senate. This proposal was accepted and a treaty was signed.</p><p>According to I Maccabees chapter 8:</p><blockquote><p><i>May all go well with the Romans and with the nation of the Jews at sea and on land <strong>forever</strong>, and may sword and enemy be far from them. If war comes first to Rome or to any of their allies in all their dominion, the nation of the Jews shall act as their allies wholeheartedly, as the occasion may indicate to them. To the enemy that makes war they shall not give or supply grain, arms, money, or ships, just as Rome has decided; and they shall keep their obligations without receiving any return. In the same way, if war comes first to the nation of the Jews, the Romans shall willingly act as their allies, as the occasion may indicate to them. And to their enemies there shall not be given grain, arms, money, or ships, just as Rome has decided; and they shall keep these obligations and do so without deceit. Thus on these terms the Romans make a treaty with the Jewish people. If after these terms are in effect both parties shall determine to add or delete anything, they shall do so at their discretion, and any addition or deletion that they may make shall be valid. Concerning the wrongs that King Demetrius is doing to them, we have written to him as follows:,</i> 'Why have you made your yoke heavy on our friends and allies the Jews? If now they appeal again for help against you, we will defend their rights and fight you on sea and on land.'</p></blockquote><p>And with God an agreement is an agreement. It is a covenant. History reveals and debunks all the false claims. Had Christ began a revolt against Rome, He would have broken the covenant with the Romans and this is another reason why God stood against the Jews on this one. It was Herod, an Edomite Jew who killed the children of Bethlehem Ephratah. Those who revolted against Rome also revolted against their God and Messiah where even Pontius Pilate did not want to crucify Christ had it not been for the jeering crowds who wanted Bar-Abbas to revolt against Rome. Even the false Messiah Bar-Kochba was doomed to destruction and today Masada bares the evidence.</p><p>Prophecy will not be as the Protestants interpret it but as scripture states it. It will be as God and history ordained it. And if you think you are immune from following Antichrist think of the Jews who followed Antiochus. Sooner or later your nationalism and your zeal from hating one over the other will overcome even the elect if the devil can convince where we failed to equip. The devil today convinced multitudes to believe that men can surgically amputate their private parts and the world thinks its normal. If he can convince the world of such depravity its not much to convince the world to deny that Christ can be in the Eucharist.</p><p>But God ordered John to only "measure the temple of God, and <em>the altar</em> and them <em>that adore it</em>".</p><p>How much do you adore the Eucharist and standing in worship while the priest faces the Altar?</p><p class="verse"><span id="en-BRG-28152" class="text Rom-8-35">Shall we be stopped by tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword or being slaughtered </span><span id="en-BRG-28153" class="text Rom-8-36">as sheep, </span><span id="en-BRG-28155" class="text Rom-8-38">death, life, angels, principalities, powers?</span></p><p>This is clear. Protestants do not adore the Altar but vehemently oppose it and therefore they are of "the court, which is without the temple, cast out, and measured not: because it is given unto the Gentiles [Antichrist], and the holy city they shall tread under foot two and forty months".</p><p>It is these who will carry out the spiritual and religious persecution against the Church.</p><p>This happens in the last 3.5 years, the same timeframe where John reveals when the seed of the <em>woman</em> is persecuted and is fed (the Eucharist) in the wilderness:</p><blockquote><p>Then a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and with the moon under her feet, and on her head was a crown of twelve stars … the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might <strong>fly into the wilderness</strong>, into her place, where she is <strong>nourished</strong> for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent … And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make <strong>war with the remnant of her seed</strong>, which <em><strong>keep the commandments of God</strong></em>, and <strong><em>have the testimony of Jesus Christ</em></strong>.” (Revelation 12:1, 14,17)</p></blockquote><p>The moon (Islam) is after her seed (the children of Mary) and the nourishment in the wilderness is the Eucharist where Communion is practiced in secret and where all these view the Woman as their Ark-Mother.</p><p>Therefore, the Altar is not a stage with drums and disco tech lights. This by itself desecrates the Altar and the sacrifice, yet millions read the text not realizing they are prepped for Antichrist because they say that they love Jesus "Many will say to me in that day: Lord, Lord, have not we prophesied in thy name, and cast out devils in thy name, and done many miracles in thy name?"</p><p>These are charismatics, they claim to be prophets and exorcists, yet they have no authority in doing any of these missions because they were not sent. And then they say that they love Jesus, yet they slander Catholics day in and day out.</p><p><span id="en-GNT-12722" class="text 1Macc-1-41-1Macc-1-43">With the Jews, if government removes the Sabbath, you will end Judaism, while with the Catholic/Orthodox remove the Eucharist and its the catastrophe of catastrophes. </span></p><p><span id="en-GNT-12722" class="text 1Macc-1-41-1Macc-1-43">How can Protestants who removed 1 Maccabees 1 from their Bibles understand how prophecy regarding Antichrist is fulfilled:</span></p><blockquote><p><span id="en-GNT-12722" class="text 1Macc-1-41-1Macc-1-43">Antiochus now issued a decree that all nations in his empire should abandon their own customs and become one people.

Mary was no Ark Who sat in a literal temple.</p><p>To understand more we must look the priests with the Ark that the Jordan (symbolic of Christ) washed their feet causing the separation between what is dead (dead sea) and what is the water of life. Only the ones with the Ark are on the right side. Only the ones whose feet were washed can lead:</p><blockquote><p>"as soon as the soles of the <strong>feet of the priests</strong> that bear the <b>ark</b> of the <span class="small-caps">Lord</span>, the Lord of all the earth, shall<strong> rest in the waters of Jordan</strong>, <i>that</i> the waters of Jordan shall be cut off <i>from</i> the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand upon an heap" (Joshua 3:13) "And as they that bare the <b>ark</b> were come unto Jordan, and the <strong>feet of the priests</strong> that bare the <b>ark</b> were <strong>dipped in the brim of the water</strong>, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest)" (Joshua 3:15).</p></blockquote><p>Christ's harvest separates between who carries the Ark of the Covenant including who follows the Ark and who is without the Ark. Without the Ark, there is no covenant. Christ washes the feet of the disciples and only these can lead.</p><p>Even Judges 7 reveals another secret:</p><blockquote><p class="reg">“Separate those who lap the water with their tongues as a dog laps from those who kneel down to drink.” Three hundred of them drank from cupped hands, lapping like dogs. All the rest got down on their knees to drink. The <span class="name">Lord</span> said to Gideon, “With the three hundred men that lapped I will save you and give the Midianites into your hands."</p></blockquote><p>The water is Christ. He is the Water of Life. To lap this water of life like dogs, pertains to gentiles taking the water of life by the tongue instead of the hand. These will be the ones whom God uses to combat Antichrist. Throughout Christian history, the Eucharist was consumed by the tongue. Today, before Antichrist comes to the stage, many are consuming it by the hand.</p><p>It is therefore, the ones who set their foundation of the apostolic succession which honors the Ark (Mary) and takes proper Communion and they stem from the twelve apostles. These will be saved:</p><blockquote><p>"And Joshua set up twelve stones [twelve apostles] in the midst of Jordan [Christ], in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the <b>ark</b> of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day." (Joshua 4:9)</p></blockquote><p>The Ark is all over scripture. You know the scoffer for he will instantly ask 'where is Mary in the Bible as Catholics describe her?'</p><p>This is the most lame argument. If typology is used by the same scoffers to reveal Christ, we have similar typology that reveals the Ark. If one takes away the typology regarding Mary, then the typology regarding Christ would too be dismissed and the whole foundation is destroyed.</p><p>The scoffer is an instrument of Satan. He/she do not realize it and no matter how you try to help them drink, you can never succeed, until you notice their desire to dig wells. This is why Jacob dug wells. This is why Christ instructed to not throw your pearls to pigs.</p><p>So when we examine what is prefigured in the Old Testament regarding the Ark of the Covenant is fulfilled in the New testament in the Blessed Virgin. The Ark was gold inside and out while Mary had no stain of alloy, pure (Ex 25:11) (Lk 1:28). The Ark was set at the front of Israel's military maneuvers (Num 10:33, Josh 3:3). "Who is she that comes as terrible as an army" (Song of Songs 6:10). "The Word of God (written on tablets of stone) was placed in the Ark" (Ex 25:16) "Jesus is the Word of God. The Word made Flesh was placed in Mary's Womb." (John 1:1). The Holy Spirit 'overshadowed' the Ark in the Old Testament where God descended upon it (Lev 16:2; Num 9: 15-23; Ex 40: 34-38) just as in the New Testament, the Holy Spirit 'overshadowed' Mary (Luke 1:35). David has the Ark remain in the house of Obed Edom in the hill country of Judea for 3 months (2 Sam 6:11) is fulfilled when the blessed Virgin Mary visited her cousin Elizabeth in the hill country of Judea for 3 months (Luke 1:56).</p><p>But it was only the Levite priests who were permitted to handle the Ark, a lesson that both king David and Uzzah learned the hard way, not following protocol that God established through the Law got Uzzah killed regardless of his good intentions.</p><p>From the history of Israel, when God established the legal ordinances concerning the office and the priesthood till today, it is the priests who are expected to be perpetually ministering before the Lord, bringing before the Daily Sacrifice to be carried out within legal prescription which demanded nothing less than perfection from every offering.</p><p>God finally revealed the secret thoughts of the Hebrew priests and why He ended their sacrificial system which in itself prophetic of today:</p><div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><blockquote><p>A son honours his father, a servants their master. If then I am a father, where is the honour due to me? And if I am a master, where is the respect due to me? Says the LORD of hosts to you, <strong>O priests, who despise my name</strong>. You say, ‘How have we despised your name?’ By <strong>offering polluted food on my altar</strong>. And you say, ‘How have we polluted it?’ By <strong>thinking that the LORD’s table may be despised</strong>. When you offer blind animals in sacrifice, is that not wrong? Try presenting that to your governor; will he be pleased with you or show you favour? (Malachi 1:6-8).</p></blockquote><p>While this prophecy was regarding Israel it is prophetic. Taking Communion unworthily or handling the Eucharist improperly or polluting the sacrifice of the Altar fulfills Malachi 1:6-8 on how Israel did the same. God simply demands the best. Whatever we build, whatever we provide, whatever we dress to His service must be the best.</p><p>By declaring that the animal sacrifices were being offered were “polluted”, God began the process to put an end to the system that has served the Jews for thousands of years, and announced a <em>new sacrificial system</em> was coming, one where Christ will forever cancel the animal sacrificial system. The perpetual sacrifice to be replaced, in fact, has been foreshadowed by God when He said, “For from the rising of the sun to its setting my name is great among the nations, and in every place <strong>incense is offered</strong> to my name, and a <strong>pure offering</strong>; for my name is great among the nations,” (Malachi 1:11).</p><p>From the very beginning of the inception of the Church, incense has been offered to the Name of the Lord. Among the only remaining two lampstands, Catholics and Orthodox, it is still the practice to this day to fill the Church with Holy Smoke, a smell that is “sweet smelling aroma to the Lord,” and the pure offering that is done daily is the Eucharist and is what is missing in the ones who abandoned the Covenant of Sacrifice.</p><p>These will end up collaborating with Antichrist. The Sacrament of the Eucharist was established by Christ Himself and could only be administered by the bishops, or by the priest as authorized by the bishops, as St. Ignatius noted:</p><blockquote><p>Let <em>no man do anything connected with the Church without the bishop</em>. Let that be deemed a <em>proper Eucharist</em>, which is [administered] either by the bishop, or by <em>one to whom he has entrusted it</em>. Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude [of the people] also be; even as, <em>wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church</em>,” (St. Ignatius, Epistle to the Smyrnaeans, Chapter VIII).</p></blockquote><p>Mind you, St. Ignatius was writing this around 30 to 107 AD. He out of all people who came up way later would be familiar with the practice the apostles did themselves as they appointed elders to carry on such functions. And if there is any doubt to this, the Book of Acts should put an end to all doubt:</p><blockquote><p>Now during those days, when the disciples were increasing in number, the Hellenists complained against the Hebrews because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution of food. And the twelve called together the whole community of disciples and said, ‘It is not right that we should neglect the word of God in order to wait at tables. Therefore, friends, select from among yourselves seven men of good standing, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint to this task, while we, for our part, will devote ourselves to prayer and to serving the word.’ What they said pleased the whole community, and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, together with Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch. They had these men stand before the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them,” (Acts 6:1-6).</p></blockquote><p>Such priests must be approved by the hierarchy at the time, the Apostles. Even when St. Paul became a convert to Christianity, he still had to be consecrated to serve God as an apostle:</p><blockquote><p>While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.’ Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off. (Acts 13:2-3).</p></blockquote><p>The practice of laying hands is ancient practice that can be found when Moses laid hands on Joshua, signifying the consecration of Joshua to lead Israel and to be empowered with the presence of the Holy Spirit. It also signify the high level of trust being placed into the priesthood as well as in the leader.</p><p>But the leaven enters by isolating scripture. The argument presented by Protestants as an excuse to promote self-appointed priests used scripture isolation. They claimed that since St. Paul argued about Jesus being the eternal High Priest that the priesthood is over based on the Book of Hebrews.</p><p>But Christ ordained the first priests:</p><blockquote><p>“Then Jesus called the twelve together and <strong>gave them power and authority</strong> over all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal,” (Luke 9:1).</p></blockquote><p>This remains in effect:</p><blockquote><p>‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age’ (Matthew 28:19-20).</p></blockquote><p>Notice how the authority functions. Christ has all the authority and therefore He ordained the disciples to carry out His mission. And if such authority ceased with the disciples how then did Christ remain with only these twelve disciples "to the end of the age"? Therefore, Christ remains with the priesthood till the end of the age commissioning only them to do baptism.</p><p>It is why, the only two lampstands, Catholic and Orthodox, have long contended the value of the apostolic-succession because in the laying of hands, they are empowering their bishops, who then empower the priests to be able to hear confession of sins, as Christ has explicitly ordained:</p><blockquote><p>“Receive the Holy Spirit. If <em><strong>you forgive the sins of any</strong></em>, [only then] <em><strong>they are forgiven them</strong></em>; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained,” (John 20:23).</p></blockquote><p>No matter how one tries to massage this verse, Jesus made it clear, the disciples had the same authority as Christ Himself had in forgiving sins or to even retain sins. Some will yell, “This is blasphemy! God alone forgive sins,” to which I will ask, “Why do you sound like the Pharisees?”</p><p>It was in fact the scribes and the Pharisees who began to question:</p><blockquote><p>‘Who is this who is speaking blasphemies? <strong>Who can forgive sins but God alone?</strong>’ When Jesus perceived their questionings, he answered them, ‘Why do you raise such questions in your hearts? Which is easier, to say, “Your sins are forgiven you”, or to say, “Stand up and walk?” But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins’...” (Luke 5:21-24).</p></blockquote><p>Christ clearly gave all authority to Peter, and by extension to the disciples:</p><blockquote><p>“I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven,” (Matthew 16:19).</p></blockquote><p>And this included the forgiveness of sins as clearly stated in John 20:23.</p><p>Priests are not there to sit in the seat of judgement to condemn you. They would very much rather to help save your souls because you are that valuable to them. Even confessing your sins, no matter how it makes one extremely shameful, it is actually healing and it takes a great deal of courage.</p><p>And as to tradition, St. Paul in closing out on the abuse of the Eucharist, he dropped this line, “About the other things I will give instructions when I come” (1 Corinthians 11:34b).</p><p>But we have no written record of what those instructions were in relation with the Eucharist. Did God forget to jot them down? Hardly. Scripture hints and tells us that what the Church practiced from its inception will be given to the church.</p><p>Rejecting the Eucharist the Real Presence of Christ in the Sacrament is what puts these on the side of the Antichrist. Even the prophet Joel spoke of the Eucharist:</p><blockquote><p>“The <strong>grain offering</strong> and the <strong>drink offering</strong>. Have been <strong>cut off from the house of the Lord</strong>; The <strong>priests mourn</strong>, who minister to the Lord … Alas for the day! For <strong>the day of the Lord is at hand</strong>; It shall come as destruction from the Almighty.” (Joel 1:9, 15)</p><p>Yet even now, says the LORD, <strong>return to me with all your heart</strong>, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; rend your hearts and not your clothing. <strong>Return to the LORD</strong>, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and relents from punishing. Who knows whether he will not turn and relent, and <strong>leave a blessing behind him, a grain-offering and a drink-offering for the LORD, your God?</strong> (Joel 2:12-14)</p></blockquote><p>If such verses are for the Old Testament temple, how is it in the context of "the day of the Lord"? Even better yet, why is it that banning this "grain offering" sparks the day of the Lord? He even left us a "grain offering" practiced until the Day of the Lord. This discounts any other interpretation. This "grain offering" destroys centuries of worthless commentaries.</p><p>St. Paul even instructed, “For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death <strong>until he comes</strong>” (1 Corinthians 11:26).</p><p>It is easy to give examples how Protestants can switch on a dime and unite with Islam. Decades ago Protestants considered Mormons as heretics until two men with suits showed up, Mitt Romney and Glenn Beck and they then instantly, including even <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2013/06/18/mea-culpa-we-were-wrong-about-glenn-beck-an-open-letter-to-a-beck-apologist/">Franklin Graham appeased Mormonism</a>.</p><p>Throughout the history of the reformation Protestants removed the Eucharist in every place they controlled. Bishops who were made to convert and abandon the Covenant would coerce his entire diocese to Protestantism. Jesus warned of the little leaven which is a starter that kicks in and begins to take away elements of the true faith little by little until there is nothing left. It truly is what the locusts have eaten.</p><p><b id="yui-gen36"></b><b id="yui-gen34"></b>But the Protestant will always counter with a quick comment that sounds right "all I need is Jesus and Him crucified".</p><p>But imagine if Moses saw the burning bush and God spoke through it these words: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that so whoever believes in Him shall not parish but have eternal life". And then Moses asks "Who are you Lord" and the Lord answered him and said "for their is only one mediator between man and Me and that man is Jesus Christ".</p><p>And then the Lord left and never contacted Moses who etched these two verses on two separate tablets which were passed down to our day and we all wrote these two verses in a booklet and printed them on In-n-Out burger wrappers and under french fries paper trays.</p><p>And if anyone tells us anything about God we would reject it and only apply these two verses.</p><p>Would that be considered love? How would the world even know Who is this Jesus and how does He mediate?</p><p>If that was all what God sent us, we are in major trouble. These two verses would not be love at all despite that they are true.</p><p>Yet this seems to be the main two verses many use today when confronted with any verse that does not suit their fancy.</p><p>Scripture can validate that for God also so loved the world that He also had the faithful make an Ark a symbol of Mary. But then the Holy Spirit hovered over a human Ark in a mysterious way and she bore a Son and named Him Jesus Who is all in all.</p><p>This ark, as it turns out, is all over scripture. It did not symbolize Jesus, yet what was in it did. And Who rested on it was the Holy Spirit Who hovered over Mary as He hovered over the waters in Genesis to begin creation.</p><p>When I shared Psalm 132 in my previous Sunday Special and asked anyone to refute, I did not get a single refutation. I had asked: how is it that the Ark is assumed to heaven with God, <em>together</em>:</p><blockquote><p>Go up Lord, to the place of your rest [heaven], you <strong>and</strong> the ark of your might!". (Psalm 132:8)</p></blockquote><p>And I still ask, how is it that this Ark is exclusively Jesus?</p><p>So next time you run into someone who claims to know scripture and prophecy, tell them to discuss with you the nine lethal words and win them to the one true church or else silence them with the truth.</p><p>(Special thanks to brother Trevor for contributing in the last section)</p><p><span class="embed-youtube"><iframe class="youtube-player" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_z_bE6b-WiA?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent" width="640" height="390" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></span></p>

So after talking with a jewelry company, Baby Bee Hummingbirds, they had their fully conceived and living but unborn children murdered, cut up into small pieces, and molded into a jewelry charm in the shape of a heart so their murderer mother could keep their remains 'close to her heart:</p><blockquote><p>After a six-year IVF journey to receive miracles Lachlan, 4, and 21-month-old twins Charlotte and William, Belinda and Shaun Stafford didn’t know what to do with their remaining embryos. Their babies.</p><p>Donation wasn’t an option, the annual storage fee was an added financial strain, and disposing of them unimaginable.</p><p>So when the NSW couple heard about Baby Bee Hummingbirds, an Australian company turning embryos into keepsake jewelley, they jumped at the chance.</p><p>Now Ms Stafford has all of her babies with her every day – including seven embryos in her heart-shaped pendant worn close to her heart, always.</p><p>“Shaun and I started thinking of having kids fairly early and realised quite quickly something was a miss, so we went to see doctors and had genetics testing to find we couldn’t have children without IVF,” the 31-year-old told Kidspot.</p><p>“Our journey took a lot longer than most, but after seven cycles we had our first son Lachlan.</p><p>“Then we started trying for a second, it took another seven cycles only to be surprised with two little miracles, Charlotte and William.</p><p>“After completing our family, we looked into the donation of our remaining embryos.</p><p>“I wanted to keep having more babies but the emotional toll, plus financially it was too much.</p><p>“Donating our embryos wasn’t an option for us and I couldn’t justify the yearly storage fee.</p><p>“I’d heard others had planted them in the garden but we move a lot, so I couldn’t do this.</p><p>“I needed them with me.”</p><p>Ms Stafford chose a heart pendant through Baby Bee Hummingbirds, so she could carry her babies close to her heart, where they should be.</p><p>“We had been on a six-year journey of IVF,” she said.</p><p>“It was painful, tormenting, a strain on our marriage and just plain hard.</p><p>“Finding this has brought me so much comfort and joy.</p><p>“I finally at peace and my journey complete.</p><p>“My embryos were my babies - frozen in time.</p><p>“When we completed our family, it wasn’t in my heart to destroy them.</p><p>“Now they are forever with me in a beautiful keepsake.”</p><p>Amy McGlade, founder of Baby Bee Hummingbird, said since starting in 2014, they have crafted over 4000 pieces of jewellery using breastmilk, placenta, hair, ashes, or cord stumps – including 50 made with embryos.</p><p>They cost anywhere from $80 to $600, depending on the piece, and can be sent worldwide.</p><p>“I don’t believe there is any other business in the world that creates jewellery from human embryos, and I firmly believe that we are pioneering the way in this sacred art, and opening the possibilities to families around the world.”</p><p>Ms McGlade, who has been a midwife for 10 years, said families send them ‘embryo straws’ which the company expertly preserves and cremates, creating a type of ‘embryo ash’.</p><p>“We are experts in preserving DNA so that it can be set in a jeweller’s grade resin,” she said.</p><p>“We knew the costs of storage are huge, and donation isn’t always possible or wanted solution.</p><p>“The families we craft for are very educated, loving people who are aware of the options.</p><p>“We are giving them another option.</p><p>“It’s special because the embryos often signifying the end of a journey, and we are providing a beautiful and meaningful way to gently close the door.</p><p>“Reactions from families who understand the journey are amazing and heartfelt. “They are so grateful for our service.</p><p>“What a better way to celebrate your most treasured gift, your child, than through jewellery?</p><p>“It’s about the everlasting tangible keepsake of a loved one that you can have forever.” (<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.kidspot.com.au/parenting/real-life/in-the-news/couples-are-turning-extra-ivf-embryos-into-jewellery">source</a>)</p></blockquote><p>Evil beyond description.</p><p style="text-align: center"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Moloch-and-His-Minions.jpg"><img alt="" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-111261" height="300" sizes="(max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Moloch-and-His-Minions-268x300.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Moloch-and-His-Minions-268x300.jpg 268w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Moloch-and-His-Minions-768x860.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Moloch-and-His-Minions-915x1024.jpg 915w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Moloch-and-His-Minions.jpg 1494w" width="268" /></a></p><p>The Bible talks extensively about Israel's evil neighbors in the Middle East. These people were not evil on account of their persons, but because they engaged in acts of such savage barbarity which in a large part included the ritual murder and sacrifice of children and babies or of unborn babies through abortion to their demonic gods as 'offerings.' This evil was found under various forms in most pagan cultures throughout the world and across cultures until Christianity came and destroyed these abhorrent practices because they are a grave sin against the dignity of the human person, who is created in the image and likeness of God.</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/600x4082.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-medium wp-image-111262 aligncenter" height="204" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/600x4082-300x204.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/600x4082-300x204.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/600x4082.jpg 600w" width="300" /></a></p><p> </p><p>As the Catholic Faith and later, even tangential forms of Christianity have been ostracized expelled from Western society and culture, these evil pagan practices have naturally returned to their former strongholds in society where they once resided in the past. In the name of "progress" the Western world has continually regressed from a place of civilization to the barbaric state that existed in the days of the apostles, where human life was cheap and seen as something to abuse for the sake of entertainment for temporarily satisfying the perverted desires of the vulgar masses.</p><p>The various peoples of the Old Testament who sacrificed their children to Moloch and Baal were evil and their crimes have been remembered throughout history for the evil that they are. Yet the same evils of those times has now returned to the European people except that it is far worse than in those times because while the essence of the evil remains the same, there are today the tools to carry out the same evils with greater precision over a larger number of people at a faster rate. Nothing has changed in terms of the essence of the evil.</p><p>But perhaps this evil isn't really the biggest problem- its the fact that nobody cares about it.</p><p>I wasn't even going to write this, but the story above came out almost 10 days ago. I was delayed from writing about it further due to personal considerations as well as other stories which at the time needed coverage. So while I did not get this story out in the time frame that I wanted to, I was able to see how it "moved" with the other news stories on the Internet. It didn't.</p><p>When you look at a lot of news for a while, you begin to notice patterns in reporting. The popularity of stories varies by social group and is dependent on numerous factors, but there is overall a "feel" that one can get about the way the general population thinks concerning various issues depending on how stories trend or do not trend. This story, just from my own analysis and experience, is at the level of absolute apathy- nobody cares about it.</p><p style="text-align: center"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/gasdygbefnsdsv.jpeg"><img alt="" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-111263" height="132" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/gasdygbefnsdsv-300x132.jpeg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/gasdygbefnsdsv-300x132.jpeg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/gasdygbefnsdsv.jpeg 339w" width="300" /></a></p><p>Now think about it with a different perspective. Last year I did a <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2016/08/29/isis-cannibals-take-250-children-under-the-age-of-four-throws-them-into-dough-kneader-ovens-and-meat-grinders-forces-the-mother-of-one-two-year-old-to-eat-her-sons-ground-up-body/">story</a> about ISIS in which it was reported that the terrorists took 250 children and using various food processing equipment they had captured, proceeded to torture the children to death using dough kneader, meat grinders, and ovens. One woman even said she was forced to watch as the terrorists ground up her two-year-old and then forced her to eat his remains.</p><p>Now this story did well on Facebook- it trended approximately 1000 shares and many more views (because more people will look at an article than will share it). After all, as we have noted through observations, people will call out the evils which Muslims do and rightly so, but when and American does the same evil there is silence and even more perversely, laughter over the same actions. I do not ascribe this to simple "prejudice" (although that certainly exists), but moreso that people will see the evils in others before willing to point it out when it shows up in themselves, especially if it is not socially advantageous to do so.</p><p>Now compare this with Ted's famous <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2014/12/12/christian-man-asks-thirteen-gay-bakeries-bake-pro-traditional-marriage-cake-denied-service-watch-shocking-video/">"Gay Cake" video</a> that went worldwide and received (if I remember correctly) over 100,000 Facebook shares and millions of views. This video was about a topic that was very important to our times and needed to be addressed, and if you look at the "comments" section in the article, you can see that in spite of the prolific number of shares, many people were as just as opposed to what he did as were in support of it.</p><p>People are moved to act or not, care or ignore for various reasons. But what I find as time passes is that while men have always loved their vices, there is a noticeable trend today where vice, willful ignorance, and apathy are personally rationalized and socially rewarded while any perceived opposition is mercilessly crushed. This is found most clearly in politics (both liberal and conservative sides), but has penetrated to all levels of society, where simply having a difference of opinion could turn you from something to nothing in no time at all. Again, I emphasize that while this has always been a problem throughout human history, we are particularly in love with evils that are so horrible and being propagated on scales and with degrees of intensity never before seen in human history (owing to better means in order to replicate the same results faster and over a wider area).</p><p>Last year I did another article entitled "<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2016/05/29/if-you-want-to-love-as-god-loves-then-you-need-to-learn-to-hate-as-god-hates/">If you want to love as God loves, you need to hate as God hates</a>." One point I noted was:</p><blockquote><p>This hatred is a holy hatred that runs from God’s grace because it is a hatred of sin. That said, you will almost never hear Christians today talk about hatred at all as holy because they have been so taught that all hatred is evil. Now most hatred is truly unrighteous- a perversion of God’s love- and as such that is correctly called evil. But to say that all hatred is evil is an evil is because it is an indirect rejection of God’s love and even an affront to it because it gives a metaphysical equivalency to hatred with good- if nothing can be hated, then all must be called good or at least, morally neutral- and this is simply not true. Good exists, and evil exists, and evil is to be hated as good is to be loved. Indeed, if Christians do not hate, they place their souls in a state of potential danger, for they will inevitably call evil good and good evil.</p><p>Across the world today it is plain that evil is rising up all around us in such a quantity, boldness, and openness that has never before been seen in human history. While times and evils have not changed, the tools for instituting, imposing, and disseminating that same evil over larger numbers of people in shorter time is unprecedented, and its effects are visible. It has been building up for centuries and increased rapidly during the 20th century and now is getting even worse in the 21st. There are the obvious sins such as willful murder, slavery, and physical abuse, but now there are new evils that have destroyed and are threatening to destroy civilizations long term. These sins I speak about are those which people are afraid to talk about today and include but are not limited to abortion, sexual perversions, and “interreligious dialogue.”</p><p>Abortion speaks for itself, as this crime has murdered tens of millions of children before they were even born- more than all of the people killed in all of the conflicts of the 20th century- and this is just the ones we can count, since it does not include the effects of the abortion “pill,” other contraception, and outright infanticide. We say we love children so much, yet so many people are so quick to scream about abortion being “MY RIGHT”- as though a man has a right to rip apart his own child with pliers, or burn him with a saline solution because it is MY RIGHT.</p><p>...</p><p>Christians need to take a lesson from this- hate is a part of human life as much as love is, and the two are related. If a man truly loves something, he must hate that which is opposed to it. That includes both the deed as well as the ones who commit the deed. And at the same time, we are also commanded to love them, and to pray for them, for part of that love is indeed the hatred against them, as a zeal for the salvation of their souls in spite of their actions.</p><p>There is much unrighteous hatred in the world. But there is also the holy kind of hatred. And it must not be discarded because to do so is to reject the love of God, which is itself hateful.</p><p>Do you want to love as God loves? Then learn to hate as God hates. (<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2016/05/29/if-you-want-to-love-as-god-loves-then-you-need-to-learn-to-hate-as-god-hates/">source</a>)</p></blockquote><p>So taking all of this into consideration, here we have a story that is praising a woman for committing a heinous crime- she murdered her own children and then had their dead bodies turned into jewelry. Yet when this mentioned the silence is deafening because nobody cares.</p><p>Would they defend it if a Muslim did it? Most likely not. Such a story would do well.</p><p>Would they defend it if it was "their right" to do it because it is a "culturally acceptable sin" just like with the homosexuals today? To their death and even possibly damnation.</p><p>Then there is one final issue- the complicit silence of the "pro-life" movement.</p><p>I don't want to disparage the many and good things that many pro-life organzations and especially, ,the hard working individuals "on the ground" who have striven tirelessly to do their small part in mitigating the horrible scourge that is abortion in the Western world. Instead, as Ted pointed out, the murder of children has become a money-making venture where abortion and all of the heresies that allowed it to rise are permitted in order to make money off the good will of Christian under the guise of stopping abortion while allowing it to continue:</p><blockquote><p>All of these pro-life fraudsters reject the absolute abolishment of infanticide, and instead advocate for the strategy of “incremental pro-life legislation”, which simply means that the pro-life movement must work gradually, with increments, to stop abortion. They want to take it slowly, and reject stern and quick legislation against this crime against humanity. In other words, they just want activists to continue their activism, because that means more funding, and more funding means more money. In one report we read that “there are differing schools of thought in the pro-life movement regarding whether state legislatures should go as far as total criminalization before overturning Roe v. Wade.” In other words, they don’t want abortion to be outlawed, they don’t desire for the murder of children to be outlawed, they don’t want the law to dissuade through punishment mothers who may wish to murder their own children. They want to keep the activism industry going.</p><p>They use the emotions and zeal of young Christian teenagers to go on the marches, the rallies, the pass fliers, while they rake in the dough, and the last thing they want is for this flow of income to end. The pro-life industry and the pro-life Republican senators leech on each other. Pro-life industry organizations simply nibble at the edge of abortion, giving a false confidence to American voters who are actually pro-life; these very pro-life groups then will voice support for Republican candidates. These candidates will act as though they are fighting to end abortion, when in reality they are simply taking just a chip off the the killing machine that we call the abortion industry, giving the voters a sense that they must vote for them so that they could just make another small measure against the murder of unborn children, when in reality it will end nothing. When abortion is not ended, the pro-life industry simply covers up for the politicians, making excuses that they musk keep working to end abortion, while they will directly oppose bills that would abolish abortion as a criminal act. (<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2016/04/01/the-pro-life-movement-does-not-want-to-end-abortion-they-want-abortion-to-remain-legal-so-that-they-can-take-millions-of-dollars-from-christian-funders/">source</a>)</p></blockquote><p>It's easy to complain and blame the Muslims for the collapse that is taking place in Europe and America, and make no mistake, the Muslims are complict in this and responsible for many evils. But the fact is too that the rise of Islam also directly corresponds with a rise in horrible evils such as abortion, infanticide, and eugenics in all their forms being practiced in the "invaded" societies. Instead of striving to love what God loves and hate what God hates, we have striven to hate what God loves and love what God hates, and then mercilessly crush anybody who would even give the impression of suggesting that there might be an alternative view, and while all this is going on complain about the social collapse taking place from said actions and try to blame it on the people who stepped into the vacuum that these same social miscreants generated for their own benefit. To all of this mess, there are the groups and individuals who are publicly in opposition to but silently in support of the same evils because they have tied their livelihoods to them- they will oppose them enough to gain financial support but never enough to actually stop them because they earn their incomes off the perception of opposition to them.</p><p>Now evil cannot go on forever. If there is talk of social disarray, collapse, and even war, it is because of both the sins of men and the justice of God. God is merciful and quick to forgive, slow to anger and full of kindness, but He is also just and will not tolerate evil. If men will not repent and listen to God, then God will rectify what man has not by His way and strictly on His terms, and as the Bible warns, it is a fearful thing to fall into the hand of the Living God (<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews%2010">Hebrews 10:31</a>), for as He is perfect love and perfect mercy, He is also perfect justice, and His judgment is final.</p><p style="text-align: center"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/memling_oordeel_grt.jpg"><img alt="" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-111264" height="213" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/memling_oordeel_grt-300x213.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/memling_oordeel_grt-300x213.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/memling_oordeel_grt-768x545.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/memling_oordeel_grt.jpg 845w" width="300" /></a></p><p style="text-align: center">Hans Memling's <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.visual-arts-cork.com/famous-paintings/last-judgment-memling.htm"><span style="text-decoration: underline">The Last Judgment</span></a>.</p>

Responding to FNC’s Shannon Bream tweet announcing that she was going to be talking to Franklin Graham about the increasing persecution of Christians across the world, Dowd bitterly brought up anti-Muslim “persecution” in the United States as the real issue we should be talking about.
