Some believe Solano is the Antichrist because he controls 10 nations and the U.S. is losing power.

President Bush stood against the world and destroyed all hope for peace. Many years of peace keeping by nations who feared going into another World War was gone in one speech that spelled out the axis of evil. The president rejected treaties that had been agreed to previously. He subjugated the United Nations by taking matters into his own hands. Aggression against other countries who did not attack the U.S. are illegal. The President was noncompliant with international laws. He raised himself above all countries and was immediately recognized as the super power due to his boldness. Congress surrendered all powers to President Bush indefinitely. Lots of changes began to take place. The FBI, CIA and FEMA were turned inside out and completely reorganized. New heads of office were appointed for new agencies which rose from the old system. Centralization displaced the many other agencies. The President told his constituents that they needed to set aside 2 years for volunteer service.
The whole media became controlled. Rolling black outs almost bankrupted the state of California. These events were used to replace the democratic governor with a republican Hollywood favorite. Millions of cattle were killed and burned in England due to the threat of a wasting disease which only hit a few. The real reason was to change the market structure for the new global market.

There is a need for soldiers to become chaplains. Chaplains should be faith based, noble like medieval knights integrated to serve, have their warrior code. Chaplains should have constant influence on American soldier's faith. They should have their own language because war pushes people to extremes. This should also be expanded on the whole U.S.

Dr. Kennedy’s Profile

Dr. D. James Kennedy is the most listened-to Presbyterian minister in the world today. His forthright and rational presentation of the Gospel is heard via television and radio throughout America and the world.

It all began on a Sunday morning in 1953 when he was startled awake by a preacher’s stern question on his clock radio: “Suppose you were to die today and stand before God, and He were to ask you, ‘What right do you have to enter into My heaven?’—what would you say?” Dr. Kennedy soon discovered the answer, was converted to Christ, and shortly thereafter was called into the Gospel ministry.

Today, Dr. Kennedy’s broadcast messages are televised from the nearly 10,000-member Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale to 40,000 cities and towns across the United States and nearly 200 nations. A modest mission church of 45 people when Dr. Kennedy arrived in 1959, the rocketing growth of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church since then made it, for 15 years, the fastest growing Presbyterian church in America. Decision magazine named the church one of the “Five Great Churches of North America.”

Beyond his leadership at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, Dr. Kennedy’s energetic commitment to both evangelism and cultural renewal is demonstrated by four organizations he founded and now oversees: Coral Ridge Ministries Media, Inc., Evangelism Explosion International, Knox Theological Seminary, and Westminster Academy. top

ANOTHER TOOL TO BRING THREE RELIGIONS BACK TO ABRAHAM WHO FATHERED THEM
The book: Gematrea DNA by Gregg Braden. DNA lets tissue translate into numbers and from numbers to the Hebrew alphabet. Developing Algorythm. Gregg Braden states that human DNA is expressing God's message in alphabet form. Applied principles with science including periodic tables, ancient letters, message in cells of all life. Because of God's message expressed through DNA there is no need to adopt other beliefs. Nano technology and bio technology will destroy us. DNA to numbers to alphabet.Biblical Hebrew linked through the Hebrew alphabet to Abraham and to three major religions.Using the word Gematria puts this whole theory once again into Lucifer's New Age camp.

U.S. 1776 destroying power of one to rule. The church supports perpetuation of monarchies and church and state. The Papacy and Jesuits are controlling law enforcers. They are the CIA. President Reagan brought Pope back into legitimacy by treaty. That is why President Bush calls the Pope the highest moral authority, Religious war is now run by Islamic militants to destroy religious rivalry on both sides. Words used by a president: In a One world government there can't be a religion.

SPEAKING OF POPE JOHN PAUL II, Pat Robertson described the Pope 4.30.2005 - his private meeting was electric, personal magnetism and love. Quotes relating to the Pope "the American People love you." "The most beloved of our faith," "Popular throngs of people adored him." Southern Baptist universally shared our values. He was what Billy Graham said the moral conscience of the world." [Did you know he had a Jewish mother?]

"If you look at the example of Pope John Paul II," spoke Imam Muzamil Siddiqi, Islamic Law Council, "He was against the war in Iraq. he was speaking for peace. This is the way to bring people together. he spoke for life against abortion, AIDs and for peace and justice. This is the kind of spirit that is needed We have to follow that and work that way."

Rabbi Marvin Heir said:, "Moral campaign against international terrorism. Peace confronting evil. Reverend Franklin Graham Islamic, Catholics, Protestants clear moral issues are life not differences, come together on what we can agree on. Make us come closer and that is a strong defense for people of faith around the world. Build bridges, talk with one another. That is the person of Christ. Church and Islam. This Pope had a lot of admiration for Islam all over the world. he was a unique Pope. He visited the Mosques. He kissed the copy of the Qur'an. Spiritually there is a common bond between Christianity and Islam. They worship the same and one God.
He was devoted to the faith but also a man who was open to all people.
In numerous writings especially in the last few years he addressed Muslims as brothers. Common morality and devotion to god. I met him 15 years ago in LA and I gave him a copy of the Holy Qur'an. Thank, I pay tremendous tribute to him.
Wiesenthal said: He was the greatest Pope in the history. He did more for the Jews than any other when he came to the Jewish markers in Auschwitz. He said I must pause here. He was an especially unique Pope. This Pope took us to the new world of reconciliation. He was the Captain to take us there.
Jesse Jackson stated: "In Apartheid, poverty he was the transforming agent. He challenged Communism and the greedy. Jews killed Jesus He met that head on. He made the greedy uncomfortable and cared for the poor."
Franklin Graham said Castro is against war. No preacher agrees with war. Their main agenda protection of life. Honor this Pope to protect the law of Terri Shiavo, food and water denied her and starved her to death." "Jesse, you would have everybody behind you, Jews Muslims and Christians. The Pope opened the dialogue with Muslims. He spoke against the wall that is separating PA and Israelis. He spoke for justice and peace and life. We have to follow that way."
"Jewish private audiences urged him to make Christian and Muslim changes. Downplay controversies. Concentrate on what we can agree on and put differences aside. [In other words forget about the Holy Bible]

NEW FRONTIER
Lift off for the farthest planet Pluto on January 19, 2006. Atlas 5 Rocket travels 36000 miles per hour and is expected to land on Pluto in nine years. The spacecraft is unmatched by the rest of the world and the fastest. The planet is 70% rock 30% ice. They wish to find out why it is different. What they are going to sell us is that there is life on Pluto. What they didn't include in their announcement today is that the rocket has a huge load of plutonium, which they are going to explode on that planet to cause a planned effect. NASA has landed a load of plutonium on the Saturn which was launched in 1997. See the newsletter April 2006.

CNN September 9, 2005 A COMMENT WAS MADE "MANMADE DISASTER". RED CROSS WAS STOPPED. COMMENT ABOUT NEW ORLEANS: HURRICANE HAS BEEN A GREAT EQUALIZER

Church Comment: 250,000 pastors trained in "Purpose Driven Doctrine". Rick Warren spoke at Crystal Cathedral. Robert Schuller (Freemason) was his mentor. The Christmas issue went through Congress.Faith based groups were expanded due to Katrina, expanding religious social services and pushing the government and religion to team up in other words a state run church. The goal for society today is about "Consensus Building" and developing community with the government (state), corporations, nonprofit organizations and the legal platform. They wish to take advantage of the volunteerism as cults do and run the church as businesses using business management models such as "quality management" "Outcome-based Education." Peter Drucker is involved with Rick Warren and Bill Hybels. There has been a paradigm shift from the Bible believing church to a global planetary Gaya system where all things are interrelated, in other words a "Gaya Consciousness." The trend has been a very systematic transisition from the old to the new.
The Drucker doctrine guarantees the church to go from a $40,000 income to $300,000. His doctrine reduces the church to use no Bible and no church. The purpose becomes to build millions of dollars providing health care for the world. "Evangelism" is not biblical. The Great Commission is about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and salvation, not about the poverty of the world. Jesus said poverty will always be with us. The Bible teaches if we don't work we don't eat.
Management techniques work. Use this techniques and achieve desired outcome. Get kids out of KJV Bible, hell fire and humanize Jesus into a limited Deity. The unchurched can relate to it

The Bible teaches: Romans 12:1-2 "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

THIS 'NO WAR ISSUE' IS ANOTHER WAY TO BRING THE WORLD ON THE SAME BRANCH. CHURCHES, SOCIETIES ARE MOVING INTO UNIFIED THINKING. "NO WAR", WE HAVE TO GET ALONG AND MAKE SACRIFICES EVEN IF IT COSTS OUR BELIEFS. WHAT BETTER ENVIRONMENT TO PUT "AN ANTI-CHRIST" INTO IT WHO PROMISES TO FIX THINGS.
KATRINA HAS BEEN LEFT BEHIND BY OUR GOVERNMENT FOR A PURPOSE: The "PURPOSE DRIVEN CHURCHES". They are sending their children and people from all denominations to clean up and rebuilt homes. Habitat homes are being built by men, women and teens. Guess what another mechanism to unify the humanity into the paradigm shift that they are all one. So why not give up the Gospel as written and come along with the crowds. Give up your homes, your churches, your jobs, and your time and serve humanity. Become one with humanity.

The DaVinci Code teaches that Jesus married Mary Magdalene and the kings (the royal bloodline) of Europe is the Merovingian bloodline which is the unbroken lineage to King David because they are the children of Christ. This is the blasphemous book ever written.They claim that there was no crucifixion. [President Bush is of that bloodline.]

Revelation 13:16-18 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred three score and six.

God's reaction: Revelation 14:9-14 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle."

LaHaye teaches that the mark can be removed and that they can still be saved if they change their minds. That's a lie out of the pit.

A form of godliness has been going on since 1948. 2 Timothy 3:2-9 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was."

2 Timothy 2:3 'Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ."

President Bush keeps talking about heeding Bible prophecy and understanding Satan's plan to counterfeit the second coming of Christ and the restoration of all things.

September 17, 2005 Former President Clinton and Larry King said that nobody knows this event was caused by global warming. Katrina established an "economic growth zone." [Note: Isn't that what it is really about? Katrina increased the entrepreunerial spirit to rebuild intra structure by giving people $2000.00 and cutting other programs. Clinton used the Torah and the Qur'an that we are morally obligated to care for the poor.]

U.S. government promised to pay $150,000 per home owner who lost his home to Katrina to subsidize insurance carriers who didn't pay for damages. The timing was excellent right after the sale of 6 ports on the east coast of the U.S. NY, NJ, N.Orleans, Miami etc. What was made public unbeknownst to most is that the west coast ports are run by Chinese and other far east companies. The difference is that the latest is a purchase not simply management putting Homeland security out of control. In the Committee hearing at the White House it came out that Homeland Security is out sourcing jobs relative to securing our ports to foreign countries to check content of crates before they come to American ports, reason being cheaper labor and keeping it off American soil. Even North Korea has been offered to participate. No doubt these are political moves to integrate the countries into the economical mainstream no matter how they hate us.

There is talk about an amendment to keep President Bush in office indefinitely.

The last revelation of Osama bin Laden (supposedly), Osama admitted (second hand) that the attacks 9/11 were done by permission of the U.S. government.
