Make No Mistake About It, All Those Who Believe In Racism And Racial Supremacy Are Enemies Of Christ

By Theodore ShoebatWe read the story of Moses, and are brought to wonder at its sublime nature; so many truths are found in its verses; verses of eternal thought, verses of eternity, verses of love and of order. Read the verses, and timeless realization brings one to the reality of the eternal nature that lies within human existence; of the cosmic struggle that lies between the devils and angels. “And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.” (Genesis 2:7) Our flesh is earth, and thus in nature will one find the struggles of the flesh. One will see the insects consume the vegetables, the fruit of one’s labor; one will see the glowing fruit from the vine, for which so much labor was exerted, destroyed by disease and by pests; one will see a beautiful garden devastated by wind storms. The will to grow the garden, is like the driving force of the spirit; but that which moves against the garden, which tries to destroy, these are as the evils of the flesh, of demons and their followers. The struggle to form something good, must always endure the assailing of the sinister. <div id="attachment_110489" style="width: 534px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Jesus_Christ_Parable_of_the_Sower_Hand-Painted_Byzantine_Icon_04.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-110489" height="717" sizes="(max-width: 524px) 100vw, 524px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Jesus_Christ_Parable_of_the_Sower_Hand-Painted_Byzantine_Icon_04.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Jesus_Christ_Parable_of_the_Sower_Hand-Painted_Byzantine_Icon_04.jpg 731w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Jesus_Christ_Parable_of_the_Sower_Hand-Painted_Byzantine_Icon_04-219x300.jpg 219w" width="524" /></a>Christ and the Parable of the Sower</div>Such is the reality of human existence, that one must say with David: “In the Lord I put my trust: how then do you say to my soul: Get thee away from hence to the mountain like a sparrow?” (Psalm 11:1) The soul so desires to ascend and reside in the mountain of God, wherein lies the Holy Trinity, the angels and the saints. But the soul resides in the body, and must partake in the struggle between spirit and flesh. God took mud and made man, and in the beautiful words of Moses, “breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.” (Genesis 2:7) Mankind, everyday, every minute and every second, is confronted with the struggle between either becoming a slave to the flesh, or allowing the flesh to be an instrument to the soul. As Palamas tells us: “Our soul is a unique reality, yet possessing multiple powers. It uses as an instrument the body, which by nature co-exists with it.” (1) Moses, with a pure soul and a heart filled with zeal, went to the dark cloud wherein God was. (Exodus 20:21) In the darkness, Moses saw God. The seed enters the ground, it sprouts and begins to grow as a young seedling, and in this tender age it needs light, so that its stem may be strengthened. And when the sun descends, the sky absent of the bright rays, the heat is no more and cool breeze sails past its soft leaves; in the night it rests, in the darkness it grows. And so eternal truth first cultivates the soul through the light of knowledge, but in the state of enlightenment and sainthood, one knows that what is divine is beyond all knowledge. To know the divine is to know He who “made darkness his covering, his pavilion round about him: dark waters in the clouds of the air.” (Psalm 17:12) St. Gregory of Nysa tells us:<blockquote>“Wherefore John the sublime, who penetrated into the luminous darkness, says, No one has ever seen God, thus asserting that knowledge of the divine essence is unattainable not only by men but also by every intelligent creature. When, therefore, Moses grew in knowledge, he declared that he had seen God in the darkness, that is, that he had then come to know that what is divine is beyond all knowledge and comprehension, for the text say, Moses approached  the dark cloud where God was.” (2)</blockquote>Moses had entered the realm of timelessness, he sat in the presence of Love, he stood with the I Am, the One who walked with Adam, the One Whose very divine essence would become the whole of humanity. He stood with Truth, and being in Truth, he had a metaphysical understanding of mankind, that it goes beyond race; that humanity has equally received the breath of God, that we are one. Hence in the first book of Moses it says: “the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.” (Genesis 2:7) It does not say that a certain people were created, but that man became a living soul. The Scripture is focused on the whole of humanity, and not one part of the whole. This spirit of the universality of humanity was manifested in its purest form in the Incarnation, in which God became one with Humanity, not with one particular race, but with mankind. Thus St. Luke traces Christ’ Genealogy to Adam, the son of God. (Luke 3:38) From one man, came all of humanity. From one, came we all; and with all did the Eternal Word of God become one. The elevation of one race above another, is contrary to the mind of God. The Jews elevated themselves with their pride of being the descendants of Abraham, but the sublime mystic, John the Baptist, told them: “do not begin to say, We have Abraham for our father. For I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.” (Luke 3:8) To have the blood of Abraham was taken as a sign of superiority amongst the Jews. The people of Israel had put ethnicity above the spirit. Thus, they put the flesh above the spirit.<div id="attachment_110490" style="width: 496px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/239.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-110490" height="600" sizes="(max-width: 486px) 100vw, 486px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/239.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/239.jpg 486w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/239-243x300.jpg 243w" width="486" /></a>Icon of Christ's Baptism National Museum. 47x38.2 cm. 14th century</div>Hence Christ declared to them: “before Abraham was made, I am.” (John 8:58) There stood the Jews, believing fanatically in their ethnic nationalism, and here stood the God-Man, in Whom was the timeless Hypostatic Union, in Whom Humanity and Divinity is one. And He confronts their pride in being the sons of Abraham, and declares that He is the I Am, the Spirit that lived before Abraham, the One Who walked with Adam in whom lied the bloodline, not for one race, but of all of humanity. The Jews, filled with the spirit of nationalism, raged against Christ and said: “Do you see that we prevail nothing? behold, the whole world is gone after him.” (John 12:19) Indeed, for the whole of humanity was united with Him, in Whom “were all things created in heaven and on earth” (Colossians 1:16). Christ is not just a man, He is Man, He is Humanity in its original state: in perpetual contemplation with the Divine. And while the Pharisees and scribes raged against Him, “there were certain Gentiles among them, who came up to adore on the festival day.” (John 12:20) While the Jews prided in their race, foreigners came to adore Christ. As the orthodox Jews expressed their hatred for the Samaritans, Christ told them of a certain Samaritan who was moved with compassion (Luke 10:33) for a man left dying on the side of the road, to remind us that our focus is not to be on a race, on a nation, on a party, but on love, on compassion; that what distinguishes a man is not his ethnicity, but whether or not his heart burns with the spirit of zeal and charity. The Jews put race above the faith, but Christ turns our hearts to “the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith.” (Matthew 23:23) <div id="attachment_110492" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/the-samaritan-woman2.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-110492" height="842" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/the-samaritan-woman2.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/the-samaritan-woman2.jpg 1000w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/the-samaritan-woman2-300x253.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/the-samaritan-woman2-768x647.jpg 768w" width="1000" /></a>Christ speaks with the Samaritan woman</div>The message of Christ is the oneness of humanity; it is a double edged sword that separates the dividers of mankind, from the unifiers of mankind. Christ died fighting the evils of racism. Christ was the Savior of humanity, He was the Unifier of all mortals; Barabbas was a nationalist who murdered Romans, the occupiers of his country. The people chose Barabbas to be freed, but Christ to be murdered. St. Matthew tells us: “And there was one called Barabbas, who was put in prison with some seditious men, who in the sedition had committed murder.” (Matthew 15:7) Barabbas was this revolutionary who committed sedition against Rome, shedding Roman blood for the cause of his race. But Christ, being a scourge to the ethnocentricity of the Jews, blessed the Centurion and declared that his faith was unlike any other in all of Israel; He spoke well of a Samaritan’s compassion and distinguished it with an example of a callous Levite who, seeing a man dying on the road, passed by. (Luke 10:32)The masses, being filled with their jingoism, chose the violent nationalist over Christ. In that bitter moment of Salvation’s Passion, mankind freed the nationalist, and murdered their Savior. Such is the nature of the masses. The Scripture says that the chief priests moved the masses to cry out to Pilate that he release Barabbas to them. (Mark 15:11) When Pilate asked: “What will you then that I do to the king of the Jews?” the people cried out: “Crucify him.” (Mark 15:12-13) Christ was murdered by nationalists, He was persecuted fighting a nationalist system. <div id="attachment_110493" style="width: 810px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/7ea0a24dcba7090f76f30c780553a3a3.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-110493" height="737" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/7ea0a24dcba7090f76f30c780553a3a3.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/7ea0a24dcba7090f76f30c780553a3a3.jpg 800w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/7ea0a24dcba7090f76f30c780553a3a3-300x276.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/7ea0a24dcba7090f76f30c780553a3a3-768x708.jpg 768w" width="800" /></a>Christ whipped before Pilate and the mob</div>As it was in the time of Christ, so will it be in the time of Christ’s return; nationalism will be used by the Antichrist to war against the saints and the Church. Look to how Christ describes the beginning of sorrows, declaring that “nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom” (Mark 13:8). Nations do not rise against one another, without national pride.It was Turkish nationalism that was the ideology of the Ottomans when they conducted the Armenian Genocide; it was German nationalism that was the ideology of the Nazis. These things are already rising up, and you will see their sanguinary ways in the future.MOSES -- COMBATER AGAINST NATIONALISM Christ, in combating against, and being martyred under, the system of ethnocentricity, was the fulfillment of the Prophet Moses, who himself battled against the racialist system of the Egyptians. The war between Moses and Pharaoh is the war between patriotism and nationalism. Patriotism, as we learn from Dietrich von Hildebrand, is the healthy love for one's country, while nationalism is the belief that puts the race above the Church. This distinction can be seen, I believe, in the conflict between Moses and Pharaoh. In Egypt, the ancestors and the Pharaoh were worshipped as divine, but what does God tell the despot through Moses? “Let my people go to sacrifice to me.” (Exodus 8:20)<div id="attachment_110495" style="width: 424px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophet_Moses_copy__74344.1374424476.1000.1200_large.jpeg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-110495" height="593" sizes="(max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophet_Moses_copy__74344.1374424476.1000.1200_large.jpeg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophet_Moses_copy__74344.1374424476.1000.1200_large.jpeg 335w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophet_Moses_copy__74344.1374424476.1000.1200_large-209x300.jpeg 209w" width="414" /></a>Moses before the Burning Bush</div>God wanted Moses to lead the people to the Promised Land, to begin a nation where justice and charity, and the worship of God, would be observed freely. Here we have a desire for a nation, but in this nation a race was not to be elevated, but only God was to be worshipped. This nation was not to be an ethno state. Here in this nation would lie a Hittite, Urijah, and his faith and zeal was greater than King David’s. In this same nation, the Lord commanded David to make a grain offering on the land of not a Hebrew, but of a Jebusite named Ornan, to save all of Israel from a famine.   In this land, a Hebrew king tells a foreigner, “Give me this place of thy thrashingfloor, that I may build therein an altar to the Lord: but thou shalt take of me as much money as it is worth, that the plague may cease from the people.” (1 Chronicles 21:22) Ornan the foreigner told King David: “Take it, and let my lord the king do all that pleaseth him: and moreover the oxen also I give for a holocaust, and the drays for wood, and the wheat for the sacrifice: I will give it all willingly.” (1 Chronicles 21:23) Take notice as to what this means. On the land of the foreigner, in the thrashingfloor where wheat was crushed, David made a sacrifice with the blood of an oxen, and with wheat. In Christ’s Crucifixion there was the Sacrifice of His blood, that is, the ultimate holocaust, and before His Passion, He took bread and said, “This is my body.” (Matthew 26:26) The bread was made of wheat, thus the Last Supper is the fulfillment of the grain offering that was made in Israel. A grain offering was made on the land of a foreigner to save all of Israel, and Christ sacrificed Himself, and made a sacrifice of bread, transubstantiated into the body and blood of Christ, to save the whole earth. This is the Eucharist, the fulfilled grain offering. Without the Eucharist, the Crucifixion is but another Roman execution; but with the Last Supper, that is, the establishment of the rite of Communion, the Crucifixion is no longer just an execution, but a sacrifice. Remember the words of St. Paul: “For as often as you shall eat this bread, and drink the chalice, you shall shew the death of the Lord, until he come.” (1 Corinthians 1:26) In the Eucharist is the presentation of the Crucifixion; in the Eucharist, the Crucifixion is a Sacrifice. It is the Eucharist that brings about, not nationalism, but the universality of the Christian Faith. The God who commanded Moses to lead the people to this new nation, is the same God Who prophesied that: <blockquote>“For from the rising of the sun even to the going down, my name is great among the Gentiles, and in every place there is sacrifice, and there is offered to my name a clean oblation: for my name is great among the Gentiles, saith the Lord of hosts.” (Malachi 1:11)</blockquote><div id="attachment_110496" style="width: 810px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/The_Last_Supper_San_Marco.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-110496" height="470" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/The_Last_Supper_San_Marco.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/The_Last_Supper_San_Marco.jpg 800w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/The_Last_Supper_San_Marco-300x176.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/The_Last_Supper_San_Marco-768x451.jpg 768w" width="800" /></a>The Last Supper</div>This prophecy is fulfilled in the Eucharist, which is a continuous sacrifice made by the Universal Catholic Church, the gentiles, and thus it brings to light the universal natural of Christianity. In the land of a foreigner did David make a grain offering to save Israel, and in the days of our Salvation, the Divine One, Who was united to the whole of Humanity -- Jew and foreigner -- instituted the sacrifice of the Eucharist, to save the whole world. The Antichrist, as we learn from the Prophet Daniel, will “put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering” (Daniel 9:27), that is, he will abolish the Eucharist, for the Antichrist, in his war against humanity, will strive against the universality of Christianity.      RACISM LEADS TO PAGANISM When a people that knows God puts their race above the Christian Faith, they create a new religion altogether, and it eventually devolves from being religion that has a knowledge of God to one filled with the worship of ancestors with God being barely known. Once the nation is elevated, than the race is worshipped, and extolled members of the race become deified. There are many examples of this. Japan is a pure example of how racism leads to paganism. The whole Japanese religion is built on the idea that the Japanese race is divine. Till this day this worldview is upheld by Japanese elites. In August of 2016, I wrote on how in 2006, 10,000 Japanese people gathered together at the Nippon Buddokan to rally in defense for the imperial religion of Japan. The arguments made at the rally by some of Japan's topmost elites were based on racialism. For example, one of the speakers, Yoshiko Sakurai, said that the royal family “departs from the world of mythology” and that “the tradition of the imperial family” “is the story of our Japanese ethnic origins.” Takeo Hiranuma, a member of the Japanese House of Representatives and of the Nippon Kaigai cult, said: "We are the precious treasure of the Japanese race, it is the world of treasure.”<div id="attachment_110497" style="width: 660px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/925012-japan-self-defence-forces-day.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-110497" height="366" sizes="(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/925012-japan-self-defence-forces-day.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/925012-japan-self-defence-forces-day.jpg 650w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/925012-japan-self-defence-forces-day-300x169.jpg 300w" width="650" /></a>Shinzo Abe, standing before the Japanese Defense Forces, next to a flag of Japan, on which lies the image of the Japanese goddess, Amaterasu</div>Now look at the measures being done by the Japanese government to its education system. Old diabolical books that should not be reopened, are being revived. Just this month, the Japanese government removed the prohibition on teaching the Imperial Rescript of 1890, which was taught in schools to instill in students the divine nature of their ancestors, and to sacrifice their lives for the Japanese State. At the end of the Second World War, the United States forced the Japanese to ban the Imperial Rescript. But now its going to be taught again in Japanese education. Just to show you how much <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Imperial_Rescript_on_Education">this booklet</a> teaches imperial religion, here is an excerpt:<blockquote>“Our Imperial Ancestors have founded Our Empire on a basis broad and everlasting and have deeply and firmly implanted virtue; Our subjects ever united in loyalty and filial piety have from generation to generation illustrated the beauty thereof …should emergency arise, offer yourselves courageously to the State; and thus guard and maintain the prosperity of Our Imperial Throne coeval with heaven and earth.”</blockquote><div id="attachment_110498" style="width: 688px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/p7.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-110498" height="329" sizes="(max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/p7.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/p7.jpg 567w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/p7-300x146.jpg 300w" width="678" /></a>The Imperial Rescript</div> Now, while the Japanese government is claiming that the reintroduction of the Imperial Rescript is strictly for ‘educational purposes,’ we must remember that the promotion of such literature is part of an elusively done agenda on the part of the Abe administration and its dark acolytes. Shinzo Abe, alongside eighty-four percent of his cabinet, and 295 members of Japan’s parliament, are members of a major cult called Nippon Kaigi, the most prominent pro-imperial Japan group in the nation. This cult wants to bring back the imperial cult of emperor worship, and wants to revive militarism. According to David McLellan, a professor of Asian Studies, the current Japanese administration “is actively seeking to revive the Empire of Japan, by hollowing out the constitution and whitewashing Japan’s wartime atrocities.” Not only is the current Japanese administration trying to bring back the pagan, and racist, imperial religion of its predecessors, it is also bringing in an infamous and eugenist book, Hitler’s Mein Kampf, into the nation’s education system. As <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.rt.com/news/384877-hitlers-mein-kampf-returns-to-japan-school/">we read from RT</a>:<blockquote>“Japan has okayed using Mein Kampf, Hitler’s autobiography and Nazi manifesto, in schools for educational purposes just weeks after the similarly controversial Imperial Rescript on Education was approved as ‘teaching material,’ according to media reports.Although the Japanese government approved Hitler’s infamous book as “teaching material” for schools on Friday, using it to promote racial hatred will lead to a strict response from regulators, according to the Japan Times report.The decision came weeks after the controversial Imperial Rescript on Education in schools was approved for the same purposes.”</blockquote>First the Japanese government approves of the fanatic and pagan Imperial Rescript, and then it approves of Mein Kampf. All of this, supposedly, for educational reasons. It all ties in together given the fact that people within the Japanese government look up to Hitler as a role model. Japan’s Deputy Prime Minister, Taro Aso, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/31/taro-aso-nazis-japan_n_3682801.html">urged</a> that the government look to the Nazis to learn about replacing the constitution:<blockquote>“First, mass media started to make noises (about Japan’s proposed reforms), and then China and South Korea followed suit …The German Weimar constitution changed, without being noticed, to the Nazi German constitution. Why don’t we learn from their tactics?”</blockquote><div id="attachment_110499" style="width: 789px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hitlerjugend_visit_to_Yasukuni_Shrine_State_Shintō_wreath_procession_kannushi_1938.png"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-110499" height="519" sizes="(max-width: 779px) 100vw, 779px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hitlerjugend_visit_to_Yasukuni_Shrine_State_Shintō_wreath_procession_kannushi_1938.png" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hitlerjugend_visit_to_Yasukuni_Shrine_State_Shintō_wreath_procession_kannushi_1938.png 779w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hitlerjugend_visit_to_Yasukuni_Shrine_State_Shintō_wreath_procession_kannushi_1938-300x200.png 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Hitlerjugend_visit_to_Yasukuni_Shrine_State_Shintō_wreath_procession_kannushi_1938-768x512.png 768w" width="779" /></a>Nazis with Japanese visiting the Yasakuni Shrine, where the Japanese till this day worship the war dead</div> What is the reason to even bring up any of these damned books? Once the reality of this situation is known in light of the fact that Abe has dreams of reviving the Japanese empire, it makes clear sense that all of these measures are being done for a pagan and racialist aspiration. Racism and paganism are like hand in glove. You can’t have one without the other. Why do you think there are so many environmentalists, subscribing to an ideology of “deep ecology” (a belief system that states that human beings are no different than any other creature, plant, insect or mammal), are in the ranks of neo-Nazis? Why do you think the Nazis themselves were environmentalists? They were pagans who were into naturist religion. But how does racism lead to paganism? If the race is the object of a people’s fixation, then the ultimate conclusion, in the eyes of the masses, is that Christianity is a foreign idea, a Hebrew belief system that is radically different from the culture of the nation. Christianity is then seen as an enemy of the people. The religion of the people, then, gradually changes into the worship of their ancestors, who would then be exalted as divine for not only their impressionably presented acts, but for the reason that they are of the blood of the people.   The ancient Egyptians had a religion very similar to that of the Japanese, worshipping their pharaohs as human images of the sun, as the Japanese see their emperors as incarnations of the solar deity. The Egyptians, before enslaving the Hebrews, actually had a knowledge of the true God. But, once they began focusing on their race with pride, they turned to paganism and cruelty. The story of the Egyptians, is the story of how mankind turned from knowing God, to ethnic-based religion, and thus, paganism.THE EGYPTIANS KNEW ABOUT THE TRUE GOD BEFORE BECOMING COMPLETELY PAGAN The Egyptian religion was based on ethnicity, and it was so evil that when God set the seven plagues against the Pharaoh, He was showing that it was all but a lie. The Book of Wisdom affirms this:<blockquote>"When they were punished with those creatures they considered gods, they became bitterly disillusioned and recognized that the true God was the one they had refused to acknowledge. That is why they suffered the final punishment." (Wisdom 12:27, GNT)</blockquote>But Egypt had at one point in their history the knowledge of the true God. When Potiphar, an officer of the Pharaoh, had Joseph, who he had then purchased, live in his household, he in the words of Moses, "saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand." (Genesis 39:3) For Potiphar, an Egyptian living before the time of Moses, to have been able to identify the providence of God, evinces that the Almighty was truly known in Egypt, and that the knowledge of Him was corrupted with the worship of the creation. (3)Therefore did the Egyptian gradually fall deeper in this folly, until the plague of idolatry utterly decayed his soul. This is further illustrated by the Pharaoh himself: when he was troubled by two dreams-in the first seven sickly cows consume seven plumped cows, and in the second seven ears of diseased corn devour seven healthy ones (Genesis 41:1-7) -- he had sent for his wise men, and his magicians, who would seek after the host of heaven, (4) and the spirits of the dead, (5) for interpretation; but none of these impostors "could interpret them unto Pharaoh." (Genesis 41:8)But when the Pharaoh had called for Joseph, who was then in prison, the latter had declared the proper interpretation: that Egypt will endure seven years of plenty and seven years of famine, (Genesis 41:14-31) and that a wise man must be appointed to store food for the nation. (Genesis 41:33-36) The prophesying, and prudence, of Joseph had met the satisfaction of the Pharaoh, who had then asked his servants: "Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?" (Genesis 41:38)  With such a statement is it most clearly shown that God was known in Egypt (6) before Moses; but indeed was this knowledge corrupted. Moreover, since Egypt was by this time under the pharaonic age, it indicates that the cult of the pharaoh, in which the monarch was worshipped as a human embodiment of the Sun, was by then taking place. Thus, the worship of the State, and the knowledge of God, were both in existence in this period; the former conspicuously being preponderant over the latter. One would be mistaken to assume that Joseph had taught these Egyptians on the true God; for it is unfounded in Scripture, and ignores the statement of the Pharaoh, in which the Almighty is openly refereed to. With solely the text of the Bible, and not assumptions, one can only conclude that there was an intertwining of the true religion, as was preached by Noah, with the naturist and imperial cult of Egypt.According to Eusebius, the first idolatrous veneration of the Egyptians was made toward the Sun and Moon, (7) and such worship was already observed in the time of Joseph, since when the Pharaoh had granted him a wife, the lady chosen was the daughter of one Potipherah, a priest of On, (Genesis 41:45) whose name is Coptic for "consecrated to the sun", (8) or "he whom the Ra gave." (9)  Ra was the sun-god of Egypt, and the center of his worship was the city of On, (10) where Potiphera had served sacerdotally, the name of which meant "light." (11) On was given the name "sun-city", (12)  and it would even be later hellenized as Heliopolis, (13) or City of the Sun; (14) and in the hieroglyphs the city was revered as Re-ci, or "abode of the sun."

All of these evidences show that the worship of the Sun was observed in Egypt when God was still known there; and that the name of God was proclaimed by the Pharaoh in the time of Joseph, makes it most evident that the corruption of true religion amongst the Egyptians by Arabian idolatry began in far antiquity. The Sabaean origins of Egyptian religion are also evidenced by Thoth who, according to the Egyptian priests, was an actual historical figure, and was said to be the first to have established the religion and priestly order of Egypt, and to have taught the art of studying the deified stars and planets. (17)Thoth was influenced by the religion of the Zabian or Sabaean of Arabia, since he was said to have written two books in praise of them, entitled "Isaac the Zabian," in which he defends the legislation of the Sabaean, and "Of the Customs and Particularities of the Laws of the Zabii," in which he writes on their beliefs and rituals. (18)  Sabaeanism was Cushite Arab in origin, was the religion of Babel, and would spread itself into Egypt where it would legitimize the tyranny and the cult of the pharaohs.        Not only was the worship of the Sun observed while God was still known, but also that of a goddess named Neith, the mother of the Sun. (19) The woman who the Pharaoh had given to Joseph to marry was Asenath, (Genesis 41:45) whose name has been translated as "favorite of Neith," (20) "worshiper of Neith," (21) and "who belongs to Neith." (22) <div id="attachment_110500" style="width: 410px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/neith-3.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-110500" height="548" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/neith-3.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/neith-3.jpg 347w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/neith-3-219x300.jpg 219w" width="400" /></a>Picture of the goddess Neith</div>Nevertheless, it is emphatic that the name indicates a reverence to the goddess, which thus shows that her cult had existed in the time when God was but darkly known in Egypt. The mention of the true God by both Potiphar and the Pharaoh, the father-in-law of Joseph being a priest of the sun-god, and his wife's name referring to the goddess Neith, makes it conclusive that the Egyptian had once known God, but revolted as those of Babel did, and began worshipping the host of heaven, and nature, while still having a knowledge of God.It is, therefore, in the story of Joseph which one finds an image of the transition in Egypt, from pure religion to the corrupt and vain imaginations of wizards. By the time of the Pharaoh who had ruled when Moses was called to rescue the Hebrews, heathenism had completely deluged Egypt, and the people had replaced the knowledge of the true God with emperor worship. For, when Moses and Aaron had first approached the Pharaoh, and had declared to him: "Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness" (Exodus 5:1), the tyrant had expressed his hatred for God. "Who is the Lord," pompously asked the Pharaoh, "that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go." (Exodus 5:2) To the pompous eyes of the Pharaoh, God was not above him or his throne; for he was the monarch over all Egypt, (23) a god to the masses to whom all the earth owed their submission. The Pharaoh who enslaved the Hebrews, was also the one who ruled Egypt when the people had a racial hatred against the Hebrews. <div id="attachment_110502" style="width: 476px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image006.png"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-110502" height="553" sizes="(max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image006.png" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image006.png 353w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image006-253x300.png 253w" width="466" /></a>Moses before the Pharaoh</div>The imperial cult of the Pharaoh had taken full precedence over the knowledge on the God Who Noah preached, unlike the Pharaoh of Joseph's time, who at least had known about God in the midst of a growing paganism. The grace of the Almighty was bestowed upon the Egyptians, as it was given to all the sons of Noah; His redemption was granted to all of humanity, but as is most common, man had given himself over to his passions, and rejected his salvation. "Their wickedness misled them into silly ideas," reads the Book of Wisdom on Egypt's descent into idolatry, "so that they worshipped snakes and other disgusting animals, creatures without reason." (Wisdom 11:15-16, GNT)In one ancient work of the Egyptians, the prophet Thoth described how his ancestors had turned to the making of images, though he spoke of the event in no positive light, but lamented it, and deemed it as a time when his people had erred. "Thus humanity," he said, "always mindful of its nature and origin, perseveres in the imitation of divinity; and as the Lord and Father made eternal gods, that they should be like Himself, so humanity fashioned its own gods according to the likeness of its own countenance." (24)  In another quote, Thoth recounts how his "forefathers erred very far with respect to the knowledge of the gods, through incredulity and through want of attention to their worship and service, they invented this art of making gods; and this art once invented, they associated with it a suitable virtue borrowed from universal nature, and, being incapable of making souls, they evoked those of demons or of angels, and united them with these holy images and divine mysteries, in order that through these souls the images might have power to do good or harm men." (25)They therefore fell into that folly of antiquity: that which praises the creation over the Creator. It is no wonder that their pharaohs were worshipped, since they too were of the creation. In the text Thoth recounts honestly that the idolatry of his countrymen, from its very provenance, was the veneration of demons, and it was believed by the Egyptians that their gods "were driven out of Heaven," (26) making their pantheon of the city of Satan, the greatest of deceivers and murderers, the father of all tyranny, tyrant of all tyrants.    The provenance of Egyptian idolatry was attributed also to the earth deity Ptah. It was said that he created the local cults of Egypt, formed the idols out of clay, wood, and stone, to the liking of the gods who in turn would enter into the images. "He [Ptah] created the (local) gods," reads the text, "he made the cities, he founded the provincial divisions; he put the gods in their places of worship, he fixed their offerings, he founded their chapels. He made their bodies resemble that which pleased their hearts (i.e., the forms in which they wished to be manifest). And so the gods entered into their bodies of every kind of wood, of every king of stone, of every kind of clay, of every kind of thing which grows upon him, in which they have taken form." (27)EGYPTIAN PAGANISM LED TO CRUELITY AND TYRANNY Human sacrifice was frequently done in Egypt, because Osiris, and other gods, had committed the same wicked rituals when they were kings themselves on earth. The "gods" of the Egyptians were in reality deified kings who were also tyrants, and the pharaohs, emulating their ancestors instead of God, imitated their cruelty. National pride, replacing of knowledge of God, brings a nation to worship its tyrants. These killings done by "the gods" who were but deified kings, were not seen as mere mythological events, but as real atrocities which these kings committed before they died and were worshipped. Osiris was said to have taken a large body of captives after his victories in battles, having them placed in slaughter houses where their bodies would be stabbed repeatedly, and their skulls smashed. The Book of the Dead reveals the horrors which king Osiris inflicted upon his victims: "their heads were cut off, their necks were broken, their thighs were chopped off by the 'Great Destroyer' in the Valley at the Block of the East." (28) Those who weren't sacrificed immediately, were leashed like dogs with leather around their necks, their hands bound behind their backs, only for their heads to be eventually decapitated by an executioner. In the Book of the Gates there is a depicted a group of victims called "Kheftiu Asar butchiu," or the "enemies of Osiris who are to be burnt."The necks of these victims were bound by a leather collar attached to a stick, their hands tied together behind their backs, and their entire bodies scorched with fire. These atrocities were mythologized by the Egyptians by writing that it was Horus who commanded a serpent to spit out fire upon the tied up men: "Open thy mouths, distend thy jaws, and belch forth thy flames against my father's [Osiris'] enemies; burn up their bodies, consume their souls by the fire which issueth from thy mouth, and by the flames which are in thy body." Ra, who was also believed to have been a king deified after death, was accompanied by executioners whose duties it was to capture his enemies and have them beheaded. (29)Because these deified kings had orchestrated human sacrifices, later Egyptians, in worship of them, had followed in their footsteps. In Egypt's far antiquity it was common for men with reddish skin, or hair, the completion of Set, to be sacrificed by the kings of Egypt at the tomb of Osiris. (30) This ritual was done so continuously for Osiris after he was buried, that it is said that the sands of Egypt were mixed with the blood of the sacrificial victims. (31) In the Book Am-Tuat, there is an illustration of the actual coffins of the gods Tem, Khepera, Ra, and Osiris, with a decapitated human head placed at the end of each one. (32) There was observed a ritual in ancient Egypt under the New Kingdom of Thutmose III and his successors, as we find from the walls of El-Kab in Thebes, in which men were ritually butchered as sacrifices in the burial ceremonies of prestigious persons. Two peoples were selected to be the victims of this sinister rite: the Tikanou and the Qasou. The former has been identified by certain Egyptologists as Libyans or Asiatics; the latter has been determined as Nubians, as well as Western Asians. Most of these victims were captured during Egyptian invasions, to be slaughtered for the appeasement of diabolical spirits esteemed by superstition to be gods. Those of the Tikanou were forced to be burnt offerings, alongside with animals; and the Qasou bound to endure strangulation, and then offered as a mummy. (33)The human sacrifice of the Egyptians was interconnected with their worship of dead pharaohs. It was believed that it was necessary for the deceased tyrants to be buried alongside their most importance servants, as well as an entire priesthood, so that they may serve him for eternity in the afterlife. This belief was promulgated most of all by the religious systems of the sun-god Ra and Osiris. (34)  The horrid ritual was practiced in the most ancient days of Egypt, going as far back as the Early Dynastic Period. (35)  So much pleasure did these kings have in enslavement, that they demanded men to be forced to die even after they perished. Seti I, being a pious follower of Osiris, had seven hundred servants ritually murdered and buried in his tomb. 149 men were killed for the dead Amenhotep, and 171 for the Pharaoh Ankh-f-en-Khensu, to serve him in his paradise, (36) not a heaven for the saint, but for the tyrant. In the tomb of Mentu-her-kepesh-f, was found a drawing of two Nubian men on their knees, each being strangled by two executioners with ropes which were wrapped around the victims' necks, and pulled on opposite ends until life was extinguished. (37)Clear evidence for this form of human sacrifice is further found in north Nubia, which was a province of Egypt. The bloody rite was in fact endorsed by the Egyptian administration to be observed in Nubia, where the Egyptians were the principle partakers. In the Eastern Cemetery, dated to the Egyptian Middle Kingdom, such burials have been discovered, and were described as follows: the chief individual is buried in the center, alongside his belongings, weapons, and other pieces of furniture. Around the chief corpse lie the bodies of others, ninety-percent of whom are positioned in a most horrific fashion: some clutch their own throats as though they are gasping for air, others have both hands covering their faces, or their arms extended and fists clenched appearing to reach for help, or their heads between their thighs. The majority of the bodies were not men, but women and children. (38)All were slaughtered for the sake of a tyrant's pomp, whose glory was uplifted by an imperial cult. The center body buried was always adorned with personal clothing, and the woman which lied nearer to him was lavishly dressed. One of the large burials found on this site had contained a large number of corpses, being some four-hundred in number. Through the whole "Egyptian Cemetery" of this place was found these sacrificial burials. In the Egyptian colony of Inebu-Amenemhet in Nubia, there was uncovered the body of prince Hepzefa, who was appointed governor over the Nubians by the pharaoh Senusret I, and that of his wife Sennuwy. Around the remains of Hepzefa were the corpses of his harem, servants, and household, whom were all buried alive as sacrificial victims.The pharaoh was believed to conduct his own human sacrifices even in the afterlife. It was said that when Pepi was in heaven, he "slays his enemy, and makes him to be the offering of the day." (39) The funeral murders of the pharaohs were the same rites observed by the Cushite kings of the Sudan, since both Egyptians and Cushites are heavily related. In the first half of the fourteenth century A.D, Ibn Bututah wrote that a king in Sudan was buried in a spacious tomb, and that thirty men and thirty women were selected to be his slaves in the afterlife. Before being selected, their hands and feet were broken, they were soon after murdered and placed in the same tomb. In 1697, the African island of Bissao was ruled by nine kings, and when one died, thirty people were buried with him. In Dahomey, whenever a king wished to send a message to his ancestors, he had a man sent to the afterlife by beheading him, and at times, a second messenger was sent in the same way. The Mundu, Abukaya, and Abaka peoples have five to fifteen people buried alive with a departed chief. For the Kalika people, the nearest relatives of a chief must die when the leader dies. The traveler Vangele, saw with his own eyes as people from the By-yanzi and Bakuti tribes beheaded fourteen slaves, so that their spirits may attend that of a deceased chieftain. Their heads were boiled and then stuck on poles over the grave of their dead tyrant. One hundred slaves were massacred, and placed around the coffin of the African king Pass-all. In the year 1808, a king of Dahomey had butchered three thousand people on his mother's grave; Badahung, another king of the same place, annihilated two thousand people in worship of the dead. So much slaughtering did Badahung commit, that it was reported that he filled a lake with enough blood to carry a canoe. In Abomey, during celebrations for the dead, it was common for one thousand innocents to be killed. In 1911, the Aro people sacrificed one hundred slaves upon the death of a tribal elder. In the African Okuku ceremony, a victim is brought after the death of a chief, fed, then beheaded at dawn the next day. His body is subsequently feasted upon by all members of the tribe. When king Kwamina died in 1797, each week, for three months, two-hundred people were sacrificed. Upon the death of the leader Mensa Kuma, executioners rushed out hastily searching for random victims, stabbing them on the cheeks with their daggers, tying their hands behind their backs, and then killing them. All women were strangled immediately, and numerous princes and noblemen were sacrificed. Tutu Kwamina, in worship for his dead mother, massacred three thousand people in 1816. Several objections to ritual murder were once made to a king of Ife, to which he stated that human sacrifice had benefited all the human race, and had given him superior knowledge which would go away if the rite was outlawed. (39a)Such were the savage rituals of the pagan Cushites, being directly related to the human sacrifices done by the ancient Egyptians; and such is the tyranny which took place in a nation which fully adopted the worship of ancestors over the worship of God. Human sacrifice in Egypt is so ancient that it was done by the first pharaoh, Narmer or Menes. On the shield of Narmer is an image of ten victims each with ropes tied around their bodies; they are decapitated, with their heads set between their lifeless legs, being given as sacrificial offerings to a body of idols. (39b) When Amenhotep II was co-emperor with his father Thutmose III, he had invaded the Tikhsi people; and as he returned as a conquering hero, his father had already deceased, establishing him as the sole ruler of the empire. To celebrate his accession, he had seven princes of the Tikhsi brought back "tied upside down at the prow of his majesty's falcon-boat," and slaughtered as sacrificial victims to the gods Harakhte, Anuket, and Amon-Ra. (39c) On one depiction is shown a first dynasty king of Egypt, sacrificing a man to jackal god Anubis or Apuat; he takes hold of the victim by his hair with one hand, and with the other he crushes his skull with a mace. (39d) Pharaohs would, as though it were for sport, hunt down Nubian men from the Sudan, reduce them to slavery, and sacrifice them to the devils of Egypt. The Pharaoh Sneferu of the fourth dynasty captured seven thousand men from the Sudan, only for them to be slaughtered for the gods in a mass human sacrifice ritual. (39f) The pharaoh Senka-Amen-seken is seen bludgeoning to death a large body of prisoners as offerings to the sun-god Amun-Ra. Ptolemy VIII is shown killing alongside Horus; and Ptolemy XII butchering men before the moon goddess Isis. (39g)Ritual human sacrifice was done by the Egyptians as it was by their Cushite brethren. The Cushite kings Heru-sa-atef and Nastasen, took pride in how they had slaughtered the people of Sudan, boasting of the massacres they would conduct after each victory, in the cause of their gods. (39h) In Meroe, where the gods worshipped were the same as those of Egypt, the priests had ruled as a mob, whose power had even prevailed over the king. The sacerdotal order would, unexpectedly, decide when the king was to be sacrificed to the gods. To the king, they would send messengers to inform him of his time to be a sacrificial victim, declaring that it was the will of the gods. The kings had complied with this horrid rite, subjecting themselves more to superstition than prudence, until the time of the second Ptolemy when Meroe was ruled by Ergamenes who, being raised with a Greek education, had saw the ritual with utter disdain. He had entered the temple with his warriors and slaughtered all of the priests, and after abolishing the despotic rite, enacted that Meroe will be governed by his own will, and not by those of the priests. (39i) CANNIBALISM IN ANCIENT EGYPT Human sacrifice would also be followed by ritual cannibalism. On the temple of Edifu, all lands foreign to Egypt are pictured as being under the feet of the pharaoh, as four men, their arms bounded, are about to be ritually sacrificed. As the sacrificial victims are awaiting their deaths, a person hovers over them, reciting the "Book of the Subduing of the Nobility". This ritual was a part of an annual fertility ritual, the depictions of which have netted birds, fish, and humans, as representing the enemies of the pharaoh-Asiatics, Beduins, Nubians, and others-which were to be eaten for "breakfast, lunch, and supper." By consuming the flesh of their enemies, the Egyptians believed that they would absorb their desired qualities. (40) This evil stemmed from the national pride of the Egyptians, seeing themselves as superior to their foreign neighbors, to the point that they saw them as inferior as animals to be eaten. Classical writers tell us of Busiris, an ancient king of Egypt who had not suffered any foreigner from his cruelty, sacrificing them to the god Amon, (41) and for the sake of his gods, drinking their blood. (42)Cannibalism continued on in Egypt even after the Christian Era, and regardless of Islam prevailing over the country, it was still prevalently practiced. In 1148, as Rudwan, a criminal, was fleeing for his freedom from the authorities, he was slain in front of the palace of the Khalifa. His head was cut off, and his body mutilated into little pieces only for them to be eaten by Egyptian soldiers in their infernal belief that they would absorb the courage of the victim. (43)Egyptian cannibalism was directly linked with the worship of the dead pharaoh, since in heaven it is said that he would indulge in the eating of human flesh. If the pharaoh, cannibalized his victims in heaven, it was certainly condoned to do the same evil on earth. After king Unas had died, he went to heaven and became Osiris, and as he lives in perpetual godhood, he "eats men, he feeds on the gods, he is the lord to whom tributes are brought, he weighs the gifts." The god Am-Rehau captures a body of victims for the pharaoh; their throats are slit, their insides taken out, their bodies dismembered and cooked. Unas consumes the flesh and absorbs the power that was once in the victims. ...The great ones of them are for his [Unas'] food in the morning, their middle[-sized] ones are for his food in the night. The old ones, male and female, are for his cauldrons. Behold, the Great One in heaven shoots forth fire into their caldrons which contain the thighs of their firstborn."  (44)This was the evil religion that Moses combated. It was the religion of race, the religion of pride and nation, of blood and earth, and in the triumph of the light, it was all dissipated by the victory of love. As it was then, so it shall happen again, when the God-Man shall vanquish the enemy of the unity of humanity.<iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='640' height='390' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/QGMfxsz6lYc?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'></iframe>

'Black Muslim' Pulls Out Gun And Begins Randomly Shooting People In Fresno While Screaming "Allahu Akbar"

It always does this throughout history and in all societies without exception, and the pattern is the same.In Fresno, CA, a black Muslim man pulled out a handgun and began randomly shooting people while screaming "Allahu Akbar":<blockquote>Three people have been killed in California after a series of "random" shootings in downtown Fresno, officials say. The suspect - who shouted "Allahu Akbar" while being taken into custody - is also the suspect in an earlier shooting. (more)The incident began just before 11 a.m. PT on Tuesday when officers received a report from "ShotSpotter" that shots were being fired in downtown Fresno. Soon after, shots were fired at 3 additional scenes in the area.According to Police Chief Jerry Dyer, the gunman first opened fire at a pickup truck, striking someone inside the vehicle. Another person drove the pickup truck to the Fresno Police Department, but the victim succumbed to his injuries.Seconds after the first shooting, the suspect fired multiple shots at a pedestrian in the area but missed. He then shot and killed two other people, including someone who was near a bus stop outside the parking lot of Catholic Charities.A short time later, a police officer spotted the suspect, who "literally dove onto the ground" as soon as he spotted the officer. While being taken into custody, the man - identified as 39-year-old Kori Ali Muhammad - shouted "Allahu Akbar."It was not immediately clear whether Tuesday's shooting spree was an act of terrorism, but Chief Dyer said Muhammad's Facebook account indicated that he "does not like white people." All victims of Tuesday's shooting were white, as well as the 4th person he shot at.He also expressed anti-government sentiments on his Facebook account, Chief Dyer added.Just hours before the shooting, Fresno police identified Muhammad - a homeless man - as the suspect in Thursday's fatal shooting of security guard Carl Williams at the Motel 6 in Fresno. Muhammad allegedly also tried to shoot a second security guard but was out of bullets, police say.As a result of Tuesday's shootings, all Fresno County government offices and a number of businesses in the area were put on lockdown, but the lockdowns have since been lifted.We're working to gather more information.

There is no Islamic imagery in his photos except for tangental imagery. All of it is rife with neo-paganism. There is more of race and racism to his views than Islam and Muhammad.Notice all of the talk with reference to Egyptian and "african" dieties, as well as the red-black-green coloring. This is typical of African-American neo-pagans who appropriate a mix of pagan and Islamic imagery in an attempt to construct their own identity and religious values.Yes, the man is a "Muslim" by association, but his Islam is about as Islamic as a Jehovah's Witness or a Mormon is a Christian. For him and those like him, Islam is a cultural symbol of "resistance" to what he views as "oppression," which are particular ideas about European and American culture and history. At the same time, a person like him will likely entertain all kinds of insane ideas about religion, science, and philosophy, or the very common idea in circles such as his that "the black woman is divine."<iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='640' height='390' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/k6w695Fn5XM?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'></iframe>"Brother Po'lite". He is one of many speakers on YouTube who teach that the black woman is divine. This is based on various arguments expropriated from 19th century European racists and adopted by Afro-Americans but fitted to their particular context. It is all a bunch of racial nonsense, no different than the national socialism of then and now except it is far less articulate and comes off either comical or pathetic depending on the presentation.His Islam has more in common with the "black Islam" of Elijah Muhammad or W.D. Fard, which did not so much believe in the actual religion of Islam but  saw it as a tool of sociocultural control and amassing power. The only "god" this man and others like him believe in is the worship of their own race and cultural ideas as they understand (or would like them to be presented). Thus he is more accurately described as a black neo-pagan with eugenicist ideas, merely reflecting a phenomenon which is rising worldwide in all cultures, especially Europe with the rise of the new national socialism that we have been carefully tracking .So while it is accurate to associate him with Islam, remember that in this case it is only in a tangental way, for as we have been trying repeatedly to point out, Islam is being used as a tool by many powerful, influential people as a lever of social and cultural control meant to dislodge the current status quo and attempting to place themselves into power. While the Muslims certainly deserve and need criticism, be careful to blame all problems in society on them, because while they do cause problems, the reason they are being allowed to cause problems is for a greater end. Never forget that whether neo-pagan or Muslim, both side are ultimately controlled by the same evil entity, and the dichotomy between the two is only true in a superficial sense because the essence is the same. It is only through a return to Christ and Christendom that this and all the related evils may be truly confronted and vanquished because Christ is the only way.

Indeed, slavery was and is and always will be a part of Islam because it is based on the idea that non-Muslims are not made in the image of Allah, and so their humanity is conditional upon their belief in and practice of Islam.The rise of Islam in a society cannot be separated from these barbaric practices, and as such to support Islam is to facilitate these same practices rising once again as they did in the past.<iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='640' height='390' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/szSJWUefrvA?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'></iframe>A homemade video <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4367818/Cruel-woman-films-housemaid-falling-seventh-floor.html">in the case this year of an African maid begging for help before falling to her death from a window as her "caretaker" filmed her die</a>.

Shockingly Unbelievable: Erdogan's Referendum Victory Is Now Calling On All Turks To Worship Erdogan As "God"

And while protests erupted from the opposition rejecting the referendum, U.S. President, Donald Trump, instead of addressing the dissent <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-turkey-election-usa-idUKKBN17J1LX">called Erdogan to congratulate him</a>. Besides Reuters, even the major Israeli newspaper Haaretz <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.haaretz.com/middle-east-news/turkey/1.783894">reported</a>:<blockquote>U.S. President Donald Trump called his Turkish counterpart to congratulate him on the results of a referendum that will grant the Turkish leader sweeping new powers, presidential sources in Ankara said on Monday evening.</blockquote>Even the Kremlin <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://tass.com/politics/941732">urges</a> everyone to respect Turkey's referendum choice.When decades ago we said that Turkey will produce a man who will be hailed as God and that the U.S. will initially support him, many scoffed.But besides the many who focused on Trump as a symbol of "king Cyrus," the reports from Turkey is much more alarming where the main media is speaking the types of blasphemies that jump right out of the pages of the Apocalypse and Daniel. With the expected victory, Yeni Safak's journalist, Ergün Yıldırım, on Resurrection Sunday began <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.yenisafak.com/en/columns/ergunyildirim/the-nations-moment-of-truth-2037376">publishing the cult of Erdogan</a>, proclaiming  him as part and parcel of God Himself, saying that Erdogan is now 'the Holy Spirit' and 'Caliph' who needed to be trusted and obeyed while the Ottoman Turkey 'resurrects' from the dead. Yeni Safak is not some lunatic blogger, it is Erdogan's AKP Party's main mouthpiece.So what else will spring out of the pages of the Apocalypse; Israel announcing that they will rebuild the third temple? More on that later.In the article, Yıldırım began to redefine a new era for Islam under the newly resurrected 'Caliphate' dividing the societal structure in what he termed as "the subject" (the Caliph) who is "God the Holy Spirit" and literally calling him "our Lord" while "the slave" becomes the rest of the people needed to simply trust and obey their god and savior:<blockquote>"We are waking up to our own fate. We are breaking free from our [western] chains. We are waking up [from the dead] to existence. We are waking up in general. In the darkest of times we hear our poet Akif saying, 'Wake up Muslim society.' We are rising. We are being reborn. Every birth is a scream and we are screaming too. This is our final scream. It is the scream of birth and existence. Today the nation will scream for the last time. It is the day that society will once again exist with its own fate. It is the day that we will leave the TIH Desert for the last time. It is the day we are honored with being a nation again. It is the last time we say "yes" to our Lord [Erdogan] calling out, "Aren't I your Lord [God]?"</blockquote><div class="author-info flx authorInfo authorInfoNext"><div class="bio"><div class="flx"><div class="social"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/ey.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-110404" height="506" sizes="(max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/ey.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/ey.jpg 480w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/ey-300x225.jpg 300w" width="675" /></a></div></div></div></div>Its a 'beast rising from its mortal wound'. And if you think this term "Lord" is simply said as to honor Erdogan's status, Yeni Safak, makes no qualms and without any ambiguity calls Erdogan "God" Himself:<blockquote>Nation's just like people have destinies. Thus, God [Erdogan] addresses nations the same way that he addresses individuals in our Holy Book [the Quran]. He regards them as the subject, for example, he says, "the societies that think," and "the society that changes itself." The subject is the fate/destiny of the person, thus when a society is the subject, it too has a destiny. The person that is the subject is the khaliph [Caliph]. He is a piece of God's spirit, he uses his will. He chooses good or evil. The person [the Caliph] who is the subject, is a creation that is independent. This same principle applies to societies as well. Societies have wills too and can use it in the same way. Societies that make preferences and side with the truth are independent. People that are slaves, are not subjects. This also applies for societies that become herds too.</blockquote>Even the top Arab media including Turkey experts recognize what is happening. In a headline titled "Finally Erdogan succeeded in transforming Turkey into the New Ottoman Caliphate" Al-Dehi <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.elbalad.news/2720966">writes</a>:<blockquote>  "Will NATO now be silent on Turkey? The Referendum now transforms Erdogan into a semi-god. This achievement is the formation of the Ottoman caliphate. Turkey now will will enter a dark tunnel. There is a great division within Turkish society and Erdogan's success will make him avenge the Kurds and the nationalists. It is the end of Ataturkism and the beginning of the Erdoganian Caliphate ".</blockquote>By this we now begin to understand the cult of Erdogan, which proclaimed Erdogan as a 'creation' and also a part and parcel of the 'spirit of God'.And so this confirms what we have etched for decades where some just refused to comprehend, that both the 'deity' and 'humanity' of Erdogan was what we exactly predicted will be the cult of Turkey.Way before such proclamations, nearly a decade ago, a self-proclaimed Bible scholar named David Reagan criticized our analysis <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.lamblion.us/2009/01/antichrist-muslim-gods-war-on-terror.html">arguing</a> that “I believe the behavior of the Antichrist described in <a class="lbsBibleRef" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblia.com/bible/nasb95/2%20Thessalonians%202.3-4" target="_blank" data-reference="2 Thessalonians 2.3-4" data-version="nasb95">2 Thessalonians 2:3-4</a> [that he is God] rules out any possibility that the Antichrist might prove to be a Muslim.”Where are these critics now? Does the Bible teach that Antichrist claims to be purely deity? If claiming to be God is the only thing Antichrist does, then we have a problem—<a class="lbsBibleRef" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblia.com/bible/nasb95/Daniel%2011.39" target="_blank" data-reference="Daniel 11.39" data-version="nasb95">Daniel 11:39</a> Antichrist “acts against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory” (<a class="lbsBibleRef" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://biblia.com/bible/nasb95/Daniel%2011.39" target="_blank" data-reference="Daniel 11.39" data-version="nasb95">Daniel 11:39</a>) while in II Thessalonians he "proclaims himself as God".How could Antichrist claim to be God and then here he himself honors (worships) a god?Both are perfectly accurate.But it is the problem of most heretics and false-theologians like Reagan who denies the existence of hell, these take one verse while they ignore the rest.So now we begin to understand why scripture addresses the blasphemies of the Antichrist claiming to be both essences in one, as Yeni Safak proclaimed: "The person that is the subject is the khaliph [Caliph]. He is a piece of God's spirit, he uses his will. He chooses good or evil. The person [the Caliph] who is the subject, is a creation that is independent."He is "a piece of God's spirit" and at the same time he is "a creation that is independent".Its the desire to be like Christ Himself and is why that date (Resurrection Sunday) was chosen.It can't get any clearer than this. What we have been telling you all along is coming to fruition whether Erdogan is Antichrist or someone else who comes after him is.And the herds follow regardless how they are described as 'slaves':<blockquote>People that are slaves, are not subjects. This also applies for societies that become herds too. Because a group of people that become herds cannot evolve into societies or nations. They are crowded and crowds don't have wills, preferences or independence and they don't have the opportunity to think independently. Crowds don't have statements to make or even a voice to use. The only thing they have is noise. Therefore, a crowd is just a number. They are open to any kind of intervention or leading. They have lost the 'society who thinks' feature. For this reason they are crowded, and societies who become herds are modern slaves. They represent the situation of being slaves. They cannot be subjects. They can only live by the direction of their owners, bosses and power holders. A society which doesn't 'think' for a long amount of time, will lose its ability to make decisions.</blockquote>Such language did not stop the Turks in Germany, which has the EU's biggest Turkish community. Yet in Germany, 63% voted "Yes" to their god and savior Erdogan, a number higher than even in Turkey (51%).Julia Klöckner, a leading voice in Angela Merkel's German CDU party <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-39615403">said</a> the door to EU accession was "well and truly shut" and called for billions of euros in contributions to finance Turkey's bid to stop.In other words, Merkel wants to pay billions towards Erdogan's Muslim Jizzieh tax poll so long they 'stop the process'. In other words, Merkel speaks with forked tongue, where she expresses that while she does not support Turkey's resurrection, yet she does, by offering billions to the new god and Caliph aiding him further in his rise.<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/price-of-europe.png"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-110428" height="601" sizes="(max-width: 885px) 100vw, 885px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/price-of-europe.png" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/price-of-europe.png 885w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/price-of-europe-300x204.png 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/price-of-europe-768x522.png 768w" width="885" /></a>And when years ago, scoffers ridiculed saying that Turkey's secularism makes it impossible to fulfill the verse "and I saw the martyrs who were beheaded ..." Turkey at the time of our prediction, did not even have the death penalty, but now, after claiming victory, President Erdogan said he would review Turkey's suspension of the death penalty. That would not only bring an end to Turkey's faltering bid to join the EU but bring it into conflict with the Council of Europe's aim of abolishing capital punishment.SO WHATS NEXT? ERDOGAN TO REBUILD THE THIRD TEMPLE SO THAT HE MAY ENTER 'THE TEMPLE OF GOD PROCLAIMING HIMSELF TO BE GOD'? Many asked, if Erdogan is the Antichrist, isn't there supposed to be a 3rd Temple? After all, Apocalypse 11 makes it clear to many:<blockquote>"I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, with its worshipers. But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. And I will appoint my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.”</blockquote>First of all, John says nothing about Antichrist entering that temple in Apocalypse 11. The temple that is entered is in II Thessalonians which does not mention Jerusalem at all.But what I have said so far regarding the temple is no slam-dunk proof. The real proof is when we understand the context of all these verses. People who view the verses in the Apocalypse about a temple forget that their arguments mimmic the Pharisees whom after confronting Jesus, He told them that the temple will rise up after its destruction in three days.Christ was prophetically revealing how the lost, when He speaking apples, they speak oranges. II Thessalonians has a different construct and does not mention at all a temple in Jerusalem, while Apocalypse 11 is clearly allegoric. "Measuring" or "stretch the line" in biblical terminology does not mean an engineer measuring a blueprint. At Belshazzar's palace, Daniel did not bring a weighing scale with him when he told Belshazzar that God had weighed him and found his kingdom wanting. In Lamentations 2:7–8a, for instance, we find:<blockquote>‘The Lord has scorned his altar, disowned his sanctuary; he has delivered into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces . . . the Lord determined to lay in ruins the wall of daughter Zion; he stretched the line he did not withhold his hand from destroying’".</blockquote>2 Kgs 21:13 is of similar character:<blockquote>‘I will stretch over Jerusalem the measuring line for Samaria, and the plummet for the house of Ahab; I will wipe Jerusalem as one wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down’.</blockquote>In 2 Sam 8:2 measuring has a positive outcome for some, but a negative one for others:<blockquote>‘[David] measured them with a cord; he measured two lengths of cord for those who were to be put to death, and one length for those who were to be spared’.</blockquote>Measuring resembles a judicial process:<blockquote>‘for with the judgment that you judge you will be judged, and with the measure that you measure you will be measured’</blockquote>There are many passages that use ‘measuring’ in a judicial sense. The trickster always takes advantage knowing that the Bible is eastern and God expresses His will in eastern thought. Yet he reads it in a modern western sense to sell the type of books that belong in the realm of fiction as in Indiana Jones and the Lost Ark, the Temple of Doom or the Last Crusade.<div id="attachment_110429" style="width: 316px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/51YRF9XJJZL.jpg"><img alt="" class="wp-image-110429 size-full" height="475" sizes="(max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/51YRF9XJJZL.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/51YRF9XJJZL.jpg 306w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/51YRF9XJJZL-193x300.jpg 193w" width="306" /></a>Why these books have been "Left Behind"?</div>But Ephesians makes it clear, the temple is "the household of God" (the church) "the building  fitly framed together as "an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the [Holy] Spirit.” (<a class="rtBibleRef" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://biblia.com/bible/nkjv/Eph%202.19%E2%80%9322" target="_blank" data-reference="Eph 2.19–22" data-version="nkjv" data-purpose="bible-reference">Ephesians 2:19–22</a>)In other words, what God marks belongs to his jurisdiction and what he does not measure ‘has been given to the heathen' to unite with the Antichrist for 1260 days during the Great Falling Away where Muslim and schismatic unite against Rome.<div id="attachment_110430" style="width: 746px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophecy-of-the-Popes.jpg"><img alt="" class="wp-image-110430" height="523" sizes="(max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophecy-of-the-Popes.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophecy-of-the-Popes.jpg 480w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Prophecy-of-the-Popes-300x213.jpg 300w" width="736" /></a>The Muslims too awaits Rome's destruction</div>This measuring is a time of trouble for the temple (the church). Revelation 11:1–2 relates how John takes a scroll from the angel and eats it where its first ‘sweet as honey’ in his mouth but ‘made bitter’ in his stomach. This echoes the commission of Ezekiel. (Ezekiel 2:8–3:8)With Moses, they ate the sweet then rebelled where they ate the crushed golden calf and tasted its bitterness. They knew God and tasted His sweetness to later fall away. This is the whole crux of Revelation 11 as well as II Thessalonians. Many simply allegorize literals and literalize allegories.When reviewing Prophecy one needs to penetrate the text and understand where the text speaks spiritually and where the text speak materially. Christ was Body (Temple) and Spirit (God). The Church (the temple of God) reflects this as well since they are physical and also spiritual.The prophecy about God's Temple (His church) is that it will be tested where many will fall away from the faith. The measuring instrument ‘like a staff’ this is not used to measure, but to exercise authority. In Apocalypse 2:27 Christ "shall rule them with a rod ..." (see also Apocalypse 12:5 and 19:15)This "rod" is God's weapon to judge. The unmeasured part will be ‘rejected’ whereas the measured part will be tested through persecution. Today we must see which Christian factions are being persecuted from Copts and Armenians to Eastern Orthodox and Catholics. These are being tested heavily and where persecution is found, there is the true church.There are clear hints to who will be tested. John mentions the temple which is well defined in Ezekiel as well as in the New Testament.When it comes to the Temple, there is a literal as well as allegory, the tangible and the spiritual; both go together. The "altar" and the "worshipers" to refer to the different parts of the temple service that they represent which the rejected 'unmeasured' parts of the temple simply desecrate or do not have. The measurement (testing) pertains to the temple service in every facet. We have an area for incense and one for sacrificial offering. These are literal and are also allegory. Incense is not something the rejected do, but the Temple (true Christianity) observes in tangible ways that represent spiritual aspects of the faith. The outer court that is left out doesn't do these since they do not believe in the literal sacrifice or in the incense as part of the service.<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/20150413cnsbr8809-800x500.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-110405" height="500" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/20150413cnsbr8809-800x500.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/20150413cnsbr8809-800x500.jpg 800w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/20150413cnsbr8809-800x500-300x188.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/20150413cnsbr8809-800x500-768x480.jpg 768w" width="800" /></a>So this Temple pertains to measuring and dividing the participants (sheep from goat) in what we call Christendom which has obviously fallen away at that point.It is the tangible with the spiritual. In Apocalypse 11, we also have "the two lampstands," two customary seven-candled menorahs in apostolic succession churches lit and uplifted during Pesach at the Altar of Sacrifice. But the main focus is not on the literal lampstands only for if this is its exclusive use, how are these two lampstands then killed? These represent the two witnesses:<blockquote>'And I will appoint my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.”</blockquote>They are “the two olive trees” and the two lampstands.The Two lampstands are living people.The temple can never exclusively be a building. Christ puts the last nail in this old coffin:<blockquote>“I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.” [Mark 14:58]</blockquote>The old one was made by human hands and the new one made without from above.We must always view scripture from a spiritual lens and understand its multifaceted. In essence Jerusalem is in mind, but not exclusively:<blockquote>"And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified"."And when they [the two lampstands] shall have finished their testimony, the beast, that ascendeth out of the abyss, shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them."  </blockquote>Does the beast kill two literal lampstands? Indeed, he will enter churches and destroy icons, church instruments and the Communion, but he will also defile human temples (their bodies) demanding they etch a mark on the right side of their temple (right arms). This is why the text says "on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate” (Daniel 9:27). This specific abomination is not consumed but placed on the right side “the wing” of the body (the temple of God) just as Daniel 11:31 says “shoulders”. The Hebrew and the Arabic meaning of “<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.almaany.com/ar/dict/ar-ar/%D9%83%D9%86%D9%81/">kenaf</a>” (wing), is side/wing/arm. One has to simply ask: what is this “wing of the temple”?<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/mark-of-the-beast2.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-110431" height="405" sizes="(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/mark-of-the-beast2.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/mark-of-the-beast2.jpg 360w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/mark-of-the-beast2-300x196.jpg 300w" width="620" /></a>"The beast, that ascendeth out of the abyss, shall make war against them [the two witnesses]". The beast (empire) which arose from the pit after receiving the deadly wound is the Ottoman and it rises again as the second beast "from the abyss" and the "pit".  This beast will kill the two witnesses. Later on this beast will return into the pit including with it the Antichrist himself:<blockquote>“you say, “I am a god;  I sit on the throne of a god …” (Ezekiel 28:1) “I am going to bring foreigners against you,  the most ruthless of nations;  they will draw their swords against your beauty and wisdom and pierce your shining splendor. They will bring you down to the pit,  and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas …” (Ezekiel 28:7-8) “You were in Eden,  the garden of God;  every precious stone adorned you …” (Ezekiel 28:13).</blockquote>Here God addresses this claim of Antichrist proclaiming himself to be as God just as we see Erdogan proclaimed "you say, 'I am a god'; I sit on the throne of a god" yet he and his kingdom will be brought back into the pit from where he came: "They [the most powerful nations on earth] will bring you down to the pit". And in that same "pit" thrown in with him are also Sudan (Cush) and North African states (Phut) Lydia (Turkey) and all Arabia and Egypt (see Ezekiel 30:5); “Cush, and Put, and Lud (Lydia/Turkey), and all Arabia, and Libya, and the people of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.” They also include Asshur (Iraq – Syria), (see Ezekiel 32:22-23) and Elam (Iran) (see Ezekiel 32:24-25) and Meshech & Tubal (Asia minor which includes the Southern Russian Muslim states) (see Ezekiel 32:26) and the harlot (Arabia) (see Ezekiel 32:29, also see Ezekiel 25).So when scripture says:<blockquote>"Now when they (the two witnesses) have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them".</blockquote>Would this mean that they are eaten by some dinosaur since a beast is a literal animal? We all agree that a beast is the opposite of the temple.But lampstands are also Christian entities as in the seven lampstands in Asia Minor. Today we have two apostolic succession churches. This could also be a possibility that Antichrist will start a massive killing process, forcing many to convert and take his mark.The novice, instead of seeking ancient church tradition or examine ancient church authority, the authority that has always interpreted this Temple as 'the Church,' these read the verses to conclude that the sacrifices in Ezekiel's temple (as well as John's temple in Apocalypse 11) are literal animal sacrifices in a rebuilt Jewish Temple. Antichrist to them then stops the animal sacrifices during the Abomination of Desolation.<div id="attachment_110432" style="width: 1930px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/sacrifice.jpg"><img alt="" class="wp-image-110432 size-full" height="1281" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/sacrifice.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/sacrifice.jpg 1920w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/sacrifice-300x200.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/sacrifice-768x512.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/sacrifice-1024x683.jpg 1024w" width="1920" /></a>You will always find a handful of people who still want to follow levitical laws which include temple sacrifices</div>While all Christians, regardless of their denomination, conclude that God is in no need for animal sacrifices, many argue that Ezekiel is simply predicting the future when Jews erroneously practice what God made null and void.But if this is true, the Jesus-style question is why would God Himself then support these very sacrifices:<blockquote>“where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy things” (Ezekiel 42:13)</blockquote>They “shall eat the most holy things”. God calls these sacrifices “holy” and an acceptable offering. These are tangible grain offerings depicted spiritually as sacrifice:<blockquote>“there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.”</blockquote>Again, God approves of this sacrificial system.This puts this whole interpretation of an animal sacrificial system in checkmate.So what is this “meat offering” and this “sin offering” and this “trespass offering”?God addresses “meat” and “grain” as if the two are the same sacrificial substance. The only interpretation is to heed to Christ when He broke the bread while stating : “For my flesh [meat offering] is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed” (John 6:55). This is a perpetual sacrifice:<blockquote>“For as often as you shall eat this bread and drink the chalice, you shall shew the death of the Lord, until he come.” (1 Corinthians 11:26)</blockquote>Keep in mind that we have two separate events. The first is the abolition of the "daily sacrifices" and then there is another event the "transgression of desolation" these are two separate events, one is regarding the Eucharist and the other is placing an abominable thing inside a holy place which we do not know where. There are no verses that says this last one will be in Jerusalem.The latter will mark the time when Judea is invaded which is described in several passages in scripture (Ezekiel 38, Psalm 83, Zechariah 9, Zechariah 12, Zechariah 14 ...)So in other words, the Christians are persecuted first and then the Jews next. The two events (one a desecration of the host and the other a desecration of a holy place) happen simultaneously.This is a double whammy. If it is a Muslim Antichrist he might desecrate the Host and then also enter a holy place, possibly Hagia Sophia as fulfillment or even in Jerusalem, we do not know for sure. Hagia Sophia after all was called the temple of Christ, the Word of God ... and Erdogan keeps speaking of converting it back to a mosque which is not far from view.So it is possible that if this happens, the people of Judea should flee to the mountains because they are next in line since Antichrist would have already commissioned an invasion of Jerusalem as described in Zechariah 12 and 14.But the scoffer isolates and says sweet sounding lines which we all agree on like "nothing else should matter but Jesus". Why then do animal sacrifices 'matter'?They will quickly quote verses that say that all we need to do is "repent, and believe in the gospel” (Mark 1.15).But believing in Christ is a marriage. Imagine telling your spouse "I do not want to consummate our marriage. I do not want to have children with you. I do not want to eat your baked bread, drink your coffee or share your thoughts ... I only want to praise your name"Would you call this a marriage?Same with salvation.How can one gain salvation if one refuses to do what is required, baptism, confession, communion ...This is why the Bible is a puzzle where one cannot choose a piece and drop the other. It has certain pieces that if missing, the covenant is not complete.The Antichrist stopping the 'grain offering' is without a doubt the Eucharist. To accept or to reject the Eucharistic sacrifice, that is the question. If one rejects the Eucharistic sacrifice, then the whole of scripture will fall apart and theology is turned upside down on its head where literals are allegoric and allegoric are literals, where the temple is a building and the temple garments are Hawaiian shirts, the sacrificial Altar then becomes a stage with drums and disco tech lights on top, and where incense become exclusively 'the prayers of the saints' without the substance of incense and now all who come to the altar can weep besides boxes of tissues.<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/pray.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-110433" height="448" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/pray.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/pray.jpg 600w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/pray-300x175.jpg 300w" width="768" /></a>The only way then for the scoffer to make his arguments is to divorce key parts of scripture. For example, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Malachi+1%3A10-11">Malachi 1:10-11</a> speaks of the new era when a Jewish temple is no more and that instead of the ancient Jewish temple, true Christians will observe a communion of bread as a 'sacrifice'.Malachi presents a nail in the coffin for the anti-Eucharist crowd. But these will still argue that the daily sacrifice that will be stopped, will have no alignment whatsoever with what is noted in Malachi 1:11 because there will be no gentiles at all who are permitted to be part of the Jewish sacrifice, since they will be busy trampling down the outer courts.These types use any possible way to jimmy-rigg the text to conclude that Daniel, Revelation, Matthew 24 cannot have any association with Malachi 1:11.It is the sort of interpretation that God changed his mind when it comes to theology, that in Malachi, God throws out the Jews and then brings in the gentiles, then later on in Apocalypse 11, God throws out the gentiles and then brings in the Jews.The scoffer has breaks in history where God entirely throws out even the traditional church and then He brings in instead a different theology by the so-called 'reformers' forgetting that God emphatically declared:<blockquote>And I will ask the Father: and he shall give you another Paraclete [the Holy Spirit], that he may abide with you for ever (John 14:16)</blockquote>What is this "for ever"? The Holy Spirit continues from the first century onwards till the end and even for ever. No stopping. John 14:16 is not exclusively speaking to twelve disciples, but the church authority. And then in John it all becomes as clear as the sun the commission of the disciples:<blockquote>Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost [the Trinity]. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.</blockquote>This leaves no room for maneuvering the text. All the claims that the 'forgiveness of sins' was exclusively for the apostles or that the laity do not need the priests becomes nonsense, especially when we read "I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world". This is a continual apostolic succession without doubt 'till the end'. Therefore:<blockquote>"Is any one among you sick? Let him call for the elders [priests] of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.  Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed.” (James 5:14-17)“And to whom you have pardoned any thing, I also. For, what I have pardoned, if I have pardoned any thing, for your sakes have I done it in the person of Christ.” (2 Corinthians 2:10).To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ</blockquote>So just as Christ forgives, Paul forgives, and just as Christ heals, Paul heals “in the person of Christ” … and here in the King James Paul even says “forgave I” just as the priest does.So as long as you miss this point, you miss the puzzle and you miss the true sacrifice which you, my Protestant friend are NOT partaking in. Therefore, you will be left out of the Temple.Special thanks to brothers Trevor and DeusLoVult who denounced all Protestant heresies and partook in the Holy Sacrament of the Eucharistic Communion on Easter Sunday.<iframe src="http://shoebattube.com/player/embed_player.php?vid=1275&width=660&height=440&autoplay=no" width="660" height="440" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
