"Rejoice ye with
Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice
for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: That ye may suck,
and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye
may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
For thus saith the LORD,
Behold, I will extend
peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like
a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon
her sides, and be dandled upon her knees. As one whom his mother
comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted
in Jerusalem.
And when ye see this,
your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like
an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants,
and his indignation toward his enemies. For, behold, the LORD
will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind,
to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of
fire.
For by fire and by his
sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the
LORD shall be many. They that sanctify themselves, and purify
themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating
swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed
together, saith the LORD.
For I know their works
and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations
and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
And I will set a sign
among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the
nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal,
and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame,
neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among
the Gentiles.
And they shall bring
all your brethren for an offering unto the LORD out of all nations
upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules,
and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the
LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean
vessel into the house of the LORD.
And I will also take
of them for priests and for Levites, saith the LORD. For as the
new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain
before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
And it shall come to
pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath
to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith
the LORD. And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases
of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm
shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they
shall be an abhorring unto all flesh. (Isaiah 66:10-24 kjv) |

- We believe every word in the KJV Bible and believe it is
the Word of God and that Jesus is the Christ, God Himself, who
spilled His blood on the cross for our sins and rose again to
prepare a place for those who repent and accept 'His' righteousness
as their righteousness. They are those who accept Jesus Christ
as their Lord and Savior, Jews first and then Gentiles. "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any
man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him,
and will sup with him, and he with me." We
invite you to take this opportunity to say 'yes' to Jesus and

- MORE GREETINGS to all and the newcomers to this list. We'd
like to introduce ourselves. George and Rita Williams founded
this ministry. We were Mormons (Temple Mormons) for 20 years.
We prayed to God in 1992 to allow us to do a ministry speaking
out against Scientology. Six months later God led us to the truth:
out of the cult of Mormonism. We did not know at the time we
were in a cult. No-one had witnessed to us in 20 years.
- The Holy Spirit brought us to information about all the cults
and the present development of the New World Order. We began
bringing our research to you. Because all the research was already
done, we decided to build a library within Cephas Ministry. Our
newsletters are not designed to provoke
anger which is strictly prohibited in Scripture. It is to shed
light on activities by those who would deceive those who are
recorded in the Book of Life by devious methods and systematic
plans.
- We are Bible students and have left all worldly organizations.
We attend church if the message is from the authorized KJV Bible.
The focus of these newsletters is to prove why we had to leave
the world system. We are called 'Watchmen on the Wall' which
God always had during the Old / New Testament Times.
- To understand what is happening, one has to know the Bible
to compare notes.
- The first section is about the church.
The news about churches is unedited unless indicated by Ednotes.
The church as we knew it, is undergoing disintegration. This
began on a fast track in the early nineteen sixties when the
Catholic Church produced liberal Vatican II to replace Vatican
I.
- The trend since then has been ecumenical which is truly what
the word 'Catholicism' means: a universal religion all
inclusive and multicultural. The Bible calls for a final church
and today's church doesn't resemble what Jesus taught. The Word
of God has undergone many changes to fit the progressive modes.
Many new Bible tranlations have brought confusion. The Bible
calls for a falling away from the truth before
Jesus comes back for His Bride. The true believers are called
'Ekklesia.' Our newsletters prove this fact and prove that the
Bible is true from beginning to end.
- The second section is about globalism
where we bring your attention to the social, political and global
trend, the so called democratizing what is left of the world.
This is a deception since the underlying new world global government
is developed by implementing sustainable development. The
Bible prophesies that there will be ten kings (ten horns), each
king (horn) will receive a region of the world as a reward for
work well done for the Antichrist. This is the reason for the
present development of NAU (The North American Union) as well
as the war in the Middle East. It again proves that we are moving
to closure of the times of the Gentiles prophesied in the Bible.
The end result will not be Democracy but a form of Fascist Communism
(Public/Private Corporations enslaving mankind).
- The third section compliments End Time
teachings because Israel is the time piece of the Biblical Prophecy.
1948 was the beginning of the figtree representing Israel, coming
back to life. Israel was allowed to return to its land. Israel
is the rock upon which the world stumbles and crumbles. We watch
and visit Israel for signs which point to the Tribulation to
confirm that we are moving into that space of time.
- Watchmen on the wall do not solicit memberships. We have
an email group that gets information when we upload new information
and newsletters whenever it is possible time wise. We love the
Lord with all our hearts and minds and we love all people God
has created but especially those who love our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ. Our Mission and Statement of Faith are at http://www.cephasministry.com/statement_of_faith.html
- To email go to: http://www.email-cephas.com
- To subscribe or unsubscribe go to: http://www.cephasministry.com/mail/
- We trust that
our readers will not be discouraged. It is God’s
will that we know the times (1 Ch. 12:32; Mat. 16:3) and that we be as wise as serpents
and harmless as doves.
- The Cephas
Newsletter reminds us that the hour is very late, and we need
to be ready for the Lord’s coming. Are you sure that
you are born again? Are you living for Christ?
-
- "And
that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out
of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore
cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the
armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not
in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness,
not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof"
(Rom.
13:11-14).

- In the wake of Alabama’s
worst mass shooting in the state’s history, many Americans

- NEW LIGHT ON THE "FALLEN
ONES" OF GENESIS 6
- July 15, 2011 - Posted by Patrick Heron - It is because we
are in the End Times that knowledge is being increased. Not just
technological and scientific knowledge but Biblical knowledge
also. This is what Gabriel prophesied at the conclusion to the
Book of Daniel.
- I believe what I am about to write now is what Americans
term ‘heavy duty’ information. But it is also, in my
humble opinion, cutting edge Bible prophecy. The reader may decide
on this. However, one proverb to bear in mind as you set out
to contemplate this essay is this: You cannot put new wine into
old wineskins. None of us want to be ‘old wineskins’.
- Many of my fellow End Times authors and teachers have recently
zeroed in on a phrase the Messiah used when speaking to his disciples
regarding the signs of the end of this age and of his parousia
; his coming. “As it was in the days of Noah…so shall
it be.” Several of these esteemed writers go on to say that
the Nephilim were on the earth in the days of Noah, and these
were the giants who were the offspring of the fallen angels.
These hybrid offspring went on to commit foul deeds which eventually
caused the whole world to be filled with violence and evil and
bloodshed and there was only evil in men’s hearts continually
(Gen 6).
- ‘As it was, so shall it be.’ Thus, they conclude,
once the Apocalypse kicks in, the earth will again be filled
with these hybrid giants and mutants who will cause mayhem and
havoc and do much damage to believers and the world at large.
Some even insist that presently, in secret government tunnels
under the mountains ofColorado orNew Mexico, human doctors and
engineers working together with fallen angels are genetically
modifying these hybrid mutants in preparation for the coming
day. Some refer to these giant offspring as super-soldiers which
are to emerge at some point in the near future and run riot all
over the world, just as they did in the days prior to the Flood
of Noah.

- THE AGES TO COME …..
- By Pastor F. M. Riley - July 30, 2011
- “But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love
wherewith He loved us,
- Even when we were dead in sins hath quickened [made alive]
us together with Christ, (by grace are ye saved;)
- And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together
in heavenly [in the heavenlies] places in Christ Jesus:
- That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches
of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus,”
Ephesians 2:4-7.
- INTRODUCTION
- The true believer is saved by God’s “grace,”
Ephesians 2:8. We New Covenant believers today, having believed
and been “born again” [John 3:3-7]then enjoy “the
riches of His grace,” Ephesians 1:7. But as wonderful as
God’s grace is upon His people in this present life, our
text for this study makes it quite clear that we have not yet
experienced “the exceeding riches of His grace.” These
“exceeding riches” of God’s grace are reserved
for true believers to enter into and enjoy “in the ages
to come.” Glory to God! What great things yet await the
children of God!
- What has been revealed to us in the Scriptures is the general
outline of God’s great Plan of the Ages, Ephesians 1:7-11.
In carefully studying this plan, we catch brief “glimpses”
of what yet lies in store for those whom God has graciously redeemed.
These “glimpses” are what this study is about. Join
us for an enlightening study about “the ages to come”…
- MAN'S ORIGINAL STATE
- When the Lord God created mankind upon the earth, He created
man to rule and reign over the entire earth, Genesis 1:26-28.
The earth and “every living thing that moveth upon the earth”
was placed under the dominion of mankind, Genesis 1:29-30. Adam
and Eve, as created, were literally the King and Queen over the
entire earth. It is quite obvious that God’s intention was
that man should rule over the entire earth, and that every “living
thing” on the earth would be subject to mankind. What a
wonderful gift from God! But it was a gift that needed to be
guarded [Genesis 2:15], for even at that time there were enemies
which coveted what God had bestowed upon mankind and were extremely
jealous of and filled with hatred for man.
- Any serious Bible student knows what happened next. Through
Satan’s deception of Eve sin was introduced into the human
race, Genesis 3. Adam, the first man [1 Corinthians 15:45], God’s
appointed head of the human race, then disobeyed God and brought
sin and death upon mankind, Romans 5:12. Sadly, having fallen
from his original state of innocence he lost the “kingdom”
which the Lord had given to man, and what had once belonged to
man passed into Satan’s possession, 2 Peter 2:19; 2 Corinthians
4:4; Luke 4:5-6; Matthew 4:8-9; John 12:31. Continued: http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/aug2011/fmriley81.htm

- THE COMING NUCLEAR MELTDOWN
- There are 262 nuclear power plants in our world and every
one of them is scheduled for meltdown. The Bible declares that
every work of man will be burned up. This fact alone will make
the seven years of the Great Tribulation “hell on earth.”
As we watch the developments of nuclear meltdowns in Japan, we
are witnessing a small scene of a coming worldwide time of sorrows.
We have been warned so often in the Holy Bible, how can we doubt
that it must happen? Apostle Peter, the first man to preach under
the anointing poured out at Pentecost, wrote apocalyptic words,
“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;
in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also
and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then
that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons
ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness” (II
Peter 3:10-11).

- WHO IS GIDEON?
- Gideon's Chronicle's is a novel that will unfold online.
It deals with an average Christian who finds himself in the middle
of the tribulation, left behind and bewildered. It leads to his
search for where he got it wrong but unfolds into a glorious
testimony as he makes a real connection with Jews and begins
to see his calling as a part of the two witnesses during the
great tribulation.
- GIDEON’S CHRONICLE
- October 1, 2016 – The Present Day
- You can call me Gideon. That’s not my real name, but
it doesn’t matter much now anyway. I’m hiding here
in the basement of a gutted old hotel…sorry I can’t
tell you exactly where. Things have been totally spinning out
of control. Military are combing the area looking for us, well
actually anyone who hasn’t been “vaccinated” yet.
I’m going to be writing this just to try and make some sense
out of the past few years. Nothing has gone the way we thought
it would. I’m totally confused and trying to figure out
what to do next. Living underground is not what I had in mind…

- THE TRINITY OF GLOBAL EMPIRE
 There are three cities
(city-states) across this planet that share striking similarities
and play a crucial role in the global governmental system we
have long been living under. The three city-states (along with
the role they serve) is as follows:
- City of London (finance)
- Washington DC (military)
- Vatican City (religion)
- (Note the evil upside down cross in the crest on the left
& dragons)
- The aforementioned city-states listed above are sovereign,
corporate entities not connected to the nations they appear to
be part of. In other words, the City of London (that is the square
mile within Greater London) is not technically part of Greater
London or England, just as Vatican City is not part of Rome or
Italy. Likewise, Washington DC is not part of the United States
that it controls.
-
- These sovereign, corporate entities have their own laws and
their own identities. They also have their own flags. Seen below
is the flag of Washington DC. Note the three stars, representing
the trinity of these three city-states, also known as the Empire
of the City. (There is also high esoteric significance to the
number 3.)
- Washington DC was established as a city-state in 1871 with
the passage of the Act of 1871, which officially established
the United States as a corporation under the rule of Washington,
which itself is subservient to the City of London. Corporations
are run by presidents, which is why we call the person perceived
to hold the highest seat of power in the land "the president."
The fact is the president is nothing more than a figurehead for
the central bankers and transnational corporations (both of which
themselves are controlled by High Ecclesiastic Freemasonry) that
really control this country and ultimately call the shots.
- Washington DC operates under a system of Roman Law and outside
of the limitations established by the US Constitution. Therefore,
it should not be a surprise that the name Capitol Hill derives
from Capitoline Hill, which was the seat of government for the
Roman Empire. If you look at the wall behind the podium in the
House of Representatives, you will notice that on either side
of the US flag is the depiction of bundles of sticks tied together
with an axe. These are called fasci, hence the root word of fascism.
This was the symbol of fascism in the Roman Empire, as it was
under the Nazis and still is today. It is not a coincidence that
these symbols are featured on the floor of Congress.
- Any American who thinks they are living in a free country
does not have a clue.
- The fact is that the United States corporation is controlled
from the City of London, by the Crown, which is not the British
Monarchy as many believe, but rather the private corporation
that is the inner 'City of London' itself, also commonly known
as "The City" or "The Square Mile." This
square mile that makes up the center of Greater London has its
own mayor, laws, courts, flag, police force and newspaper. It
is the heart of the global financial system. Continued:

- CATHOLIC ANGER AT MURDOCH'S PAPAL KNIGHTHOOD
- Steve Boggan - Tuesday, 17 February 1998 - The Roman Catholic
church is receiving complaints from worshippers following news
that Rupert Murdoch has been awarded a papal knighthood from
Pope John Paul II.
- Senior Catholics are said to have been "mystified and
astonished" when they heard that the purveyor of newspaper
sex, scandal and nudity was made a Knight Commander of St Gregory
at a ceremony in Los Angeles last month.
- News of the award was kept out of Mr Murdoch's British titles
- the Sun, the Times, the Sunday Times and the News of the World
- at his request, although it is provoking outrage in the religious
media and in Ireland, where many Catholics have reacted with
anger that Mr Murdoch, who is not a Catholic, appears to have
been honoured purely for donating large sums of money to the
church. He and his wife, Anna, who is a Catholic, are known in
Los Angeles as large contributors to the Archdiocesan Education
Foundation, although specific amounts are not known. The award
was made by the Pope at the suggestion of Cardinal Archbishop
Roger Mahony of Los Angeles. His recommendation was vetted by
the Secretariat of State at the Vatican before being given the
approval of the pontiff. The knighthood is bestowed upon people
of "unblemished character". It was presented by the
Cardinal at St Francis De Sales Church in Los Angeles on 11 January.
Other recipients included Bob Hope and Roy Disney, of the Walt
Disney empire. The reaction of Catholics in Britain has been
almost unanimously negative.

 CATHOLIC DIOCESE OFFERS $50 MILLION
FOR THE CRYSTAL CATHEDRAL
Jul 23, 2011 4:57 AM - latimes.com The proposal includes a three-year
lease and is one of many for the home of the 'Hour of Power'
broadcast. By Nicole Santa Cruz, Los Angeles Times
- July 23, 2011 - The Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange said
Friday it has made a $50-million offer to buy the bankrupt Crystal
Cathedral. The cash proposal would allow the Garden Grove church
to lease the entire property for 36 months. At the end of the
lease, the ministry would have to find a new location.
- "We wanted to be as flexible as possible given their
situation," said Alan Martin, a bankruptcy attorney for
the diocese.
- The Crystal Cathedral, founded by the Rev. Robert H. Schuller
and the home of the weekly "Hour of Power" broadcast,
filed for bankruptcy in October, citing more than $50 million
in debt. As the bankruptcy unfolds, the cathedral has received
several offers for the property, which includes the glass cathedral,
designed by architect Phillip Johnson, and a 234-foot prayer
spire.
- A real estate group has offered $46 million for the 40-acre
site, as did Chapman University. Both bids would allow the church
to lease back its core buildings with the possibility of purchasing
the cathedral. The cash proposal by the Catholic Church would
allow creditors to be paid back in full before the end of the
year and would preserve the cathedral's cemetery. Continued:

- TRACING THE TRAIL OF THE REVIVAL
- Laughter/Toronto/ Pensacola/_____ /_____?
- There is some truth to the idea of our limiting God by not
believing he can do just about anything. But just as important,
we can also attribute to him what he is not doing. We need to
be careful of either extreme. So how can we know what God is
doing? There is a simple solution to this answer, he will never
contradict what he has already done.
- It was back in 1991 at a Benny Hinn Crusade that we see laughter
break out among the children and Rodney Browne is on stage and
called forward by Hinn. "Rodney, God has given you a great
anointing for this. Let the holy laughter hit them in Jesus'
mighty name...it's coming [zapped him].... Pick him up. Now release
it on the people, Rodney!" Hinn laid hands on his forehead
(transferring the anointing) and he goes down. He then picks
him up and inaugurates him into ministry by saying go ahead Rodney.
Rodney starts by saying "I command you to laugh in Jesus
name "and repeats over and over ad nauseam. This is not
the polished stick that the world was exposed to on TBN, airing
him on Praise the Lord program or at the Carpenters Home Church.
It was raw and awkward but worked nonetheless on those with weak
minds that are willing to receive a suggestion they think is
of the Holy Spirit..
- Rodney commanded "Be filled right now. In the name of
Jesus, I command you to laugh right now. I loose the joy of the
Lord right now. In the name of Jesus, let it bubble out of your
belly right now in Jesus' name. Let the joy of the Lord bubble
out of your belly. Lord make everybody drunk in the Holy Ghost.

- CHARISMATIC JESSE DUPLANTIS IS BUILDING A MANSION IN ST CHARLES
PARISH
- "... It’s reportedly one of the largest on the
East Bank of the River. Construction began in October of 2008.
The house has 35-thousand square feet of covered space. It has
22,039 of living space. The garage and other covered area totals
12,947 square feet. Inside, there will be 5 bedrooms, more than
7 bathrooms, and a home theatre. Parish records show the cost
at 3 million dollars. The owner of the house is not Duplantis,
but his ministry, Jesse Duplantis Ministries.
- Pete Evans leads the investigations for the Trinity Foundation.
- Evans said, “Donors expect the money they donate to
the church to go to the poor and needy. Not to build mansions
for the pastor.”
- Evans says Duplantis teaches the Prosperity Gospel. “If
you give x amount of dollars, you are going to get that multipled
and get that back to you,” Evans said. “It’s a
heavenly Las Vegas in some sense.”
- According to Duplantis, the gospel has worked for him...
- “He doesn’t believe in the Holy Trinity. He believes
in the holy quartet. Father, son, Holy Spirit and him.”
Anthony said he knows that will offend a lot of people who go
to his church every week. “I know. Talk to them in five
years after the promises didn’t work.” But one congregant
said: “If anybody wants to put him (Duplantis) down, you
are going to have to put the congregation down too.” We
tried to get an interview with Duplantis for this story. He never
returned our calls. The whole story:

- ECUMENISM: THE THOUGHTS OF MEN AND WORDS OF GOD
- Man by intellect alone cannot know or understand God His
infinite creator. So God communicated with man to reveal himself.
John explains in the beginning of his gospel Jn.1 the light came
into the world and the darkness did not comprehend it. Jesus
further states John 3:19-21 “this is the condemnation, that
the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather
than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing
evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his
deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to
the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have
been done in God."
- What is this light? Jesus- John 8:12 "I am the light
of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but
have the light of life." “in Him was life, and the
life was the light of men- John 1:4. He is the “true Light
which gives light to every man coming into the world”- John
1:9
- Darkness goes to darkness for instruction because their deeds
are evil and they do not want to be known.
- 1 Kings 4:29-30 “and God gave Solomon wisdom and exceedingly
great understanding, and largeness of heart like the sand on
the seashore. Thus Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all
the men of the East and all the wisdom of Egypt.” He was
wiser than all men-- and his fame was in all the surrounding
nations.
- 1 Kings 4:34-5:1 “And men of all nations, from all the
kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom , came to hear
the wisdom of Solomon.”
- Today, few listen to the words of Solomon that are written,
nor do they listen to the words of one greater than Solomon:
“And indeed a greater than Solomon is here”(Matthew
12:42), whose words are life (Jn.6:63).
- Wisdom is hard to come by in these days of darkness, as we
watch the curtain coming down. But there are certain timeless
truths –“Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get
wisdom” (Proverbs 4:7).
- Proverbs 14:6-9: “A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not
find it, But knowledge is easy to him who understands.
- Go from the presence of a foolish man, When you do not perceive
in him the lips of knowledge. The wisdom of the prudent is to
understand his way, But the folly of fools is deceit. Fools mock
at sin, But among the upright there is favor.”
- Wisdom means you make the right decisions on matters of truth
or morality by the standard- The Word of God.
- Colossians 1:9-10 tells us to be ‘filled with the knowledge
of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.”
Without His wisdom we do not have spiritual understanding, we
are unable to Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming
the time (Colossians 4:5).

But he who

- BOB JONES: A TAIL OF A PROPHET
- Isaiah 9:15: “The ancient and honourable, he is the
head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.”
- Bob Jones first became known by being part of the Kansas
city prophets back in the 1980’s. During this time period
there was a group called Grace Ministries' ministerial team which
consisted of Paul Cain, Bob Jones, John Paul Jackson, David Parker,
Jim Goll, Francis Frangipane and Mike Bickle that were of the
former the Kansas City Fellowship (that became the Metro Vineyard
of Kansas City).
- Nearly everyone one of these men are separately or collectively
involved in the “Latter Rain” false revivals that have
taken place. Paul Cain, Mike Bickle (and others) are friends
to his ministry and were involved in the prophetic movement that
entered the Vineyard church under John Wimber and are now part
of the new apostolic reformation of Peter Wagner who was friends
with Wimber.
- Many that run in prophetic circles have respect for Jones,
others Have a DIFFERENT OPINION and consider Jones a blatant
false teacher/prophet that needs to be avoided. Jones has not
changed his perspective in over 20 years, he continues to influence
many. He has been a major influence behind the new revival through
Todd Bentley, a Toronto style copy. Bob Jones’ spiritual
experiences are extraordinary to say the least. They consist
of “Voices,” “angels,” and continual “translations
to heaven” which give him new revelations that are not only
contrary to Scripture but are easily categorized as of the New
Age variety of spirituality. Jones is whom Todd Bentley looks
to as a senior prophet and mentor. Continued: http://www.letusreason.org/Latrain52.htm

- THE GOD (DEVIL) CHANNELS AND KANSAS CITY PROPHETS:
- Intro: These notes were handed out along with David Noakes’
prophecy, ”Waves of Deception”, from July 2009 onwards.
You can therefore test this warning with subsequent events.
- Notes by S. Dobbs, July 2009.
- Avoiding deception: It seems that deception has increased
just as David Noakes’ word predicted 19 yrs ago. I believe
that the situation has reached a point where a good knowledge
of scripture, on its own, is no longer enough; that we must now
also be submitting to God and serving His purposes as our major
priority in life if we are to remain free from deception ourselves.
I believe the devil will also soon send a flood of deception
through parts of the Christian media so we need to be weighing
up the types of claims mentioned below.
- Todd Bentley update: From April 2008 onwards I felt led by
the Lord to warn others about Todd Bentley’s ministry. As
you know it emerged a few months later that Bentley had been
having an adulterous affair during his revival meetings that
summer. He has also failed to produce any evidence to support
his claims that 30 plus people had been raised from the dead.
Bentley claimed this had been happening as viewers had placed
dead bodies in front of T.V sets screening his meetings live
through the “God Channel”. As 1 Pet 3; 7 states “husbands...
giving honour to the wife... that your prayers may not be hindered”
was Bentley really used to this degree whilst unfaithful to his
wife? Rick Joyner is now overseeing Bentleys return to ministry.
Joyner is the main leader in the Kansas City prophet’s movement
that Noakes’ prophecy warns us about. Continued: http://www.twitlonger.com/show/7m0b7b

- JOYCE MEYER'S HOME - OR ONE OF THEM
Take a tour of one of Joyce Meyer’s 8,500 square feet waterfront
homes that is currently up for sale for two million dollars here.
Nice to know the ministry money is so well-stewarded, eh?
- In an article in July’s Charisma Magazine here, Joyce
Meyer says: “As Christians, we need to encourage one another
to live by godly standards and to resist the pull of the world…..”
Joyce has not been ‘resisting’ very hard by the looks
of it. But then she states what her ‘godly’ standards
actually are: ”We must set high standards for what we wear,
what we watch on TV, what we listen to, how we use our time,
whom we associate with, and how we spend our money.”
- So by that “high standards…. whom we associate
with”, one assumes we should no hang out with prostitutes,
lepers, beggars and tax collectors?
- Joyce Meyer certainly has high standards for what she wears
and how she lives anyway. She fritters MINISTRY money away on
not just luxury homes for her and her family, but on a lavish
and gluttinous and self-centred lifestyle with (these include
items in the ministry building):

- BEWARE THE IDES OF AUGUST!
- August 15 is the feast day of Minerva—the Roman goddess
of WAR!! In the Latin Church, August 15—the ides of August—is
the Feast of the Assumption of the "Virgin" into heaven.
It is also the anniversary of the founding of the Militia of
Zeus and Minerva. This "Virgin" is not Miriam—the
humble virgin mother of the Messiah—but the pagan goddess
Athena or Minerva. Latin Vulgate Jerome noticed the similarity
between the Hebrew name Miriam and the Roman Minerva.
- Jerome could not call his "virgin" Minerva because
he was very familiar with the Book of Proverbs and that would
be just too obvious to deceive and ensnare his victims:
- Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
(Proverbs 1:17).
- Jerome settled for the name Maria . . . but her feast day
remained the same as the old pagan Minerva!
- The Militia of Zeus and Minerva like to launch their bloody
massacres of Christians on or around her feast day of August
15.

- WALID SHOEBAT: FROM EVANGELICAL CHURCH PROPAGANDIST FOR CHRISTIAN
ZIONISM TO HOMELAND SECURITY ANTI-TERRORIST TRAINER
Charles E. Carlson - Anderson Cooper on CNN News’ show,
Anderson Cooper 360o, exposed a former Palestinian school boy
named Walid Shoebat, who has become a manufactured "terror
expert" promoting anti-Islamist hysteria among federal law
enforcement officers and in Evangelical, Christian Zionists churches.
The CNN piece1 focused on unraveling Shoebat's claimed history
as a "terrorist" into a pile of yarn, showing it consisted
of not even half truths. It also revealed how much money Shoebat
is being paid by US taxpayers to train federal police and American
Christian Zionists.
- CNN stopped short of saying what will be tough to prove…
that Shoebat is a de-facto Israeli agent operating in the USA.
Furthermore, it is likely he was recruited here, because it appears
that Israel never heard of him when he lived with his family
in Beit Lahor, near Bethlehem, where he claims to have been a
"terrorist" trying to kill Jews.
- Shoebat's written response, “I Confess…”,
to Anderson Cooper’s telling exposé, was immediately
spread far and wide by World Net Daily and other news sources
in sympathy with Israel and Christian Zionists.2
- Why is Shoebat so well paid? Here is an example of what he
says to earn his money. CNN News researcher Drew Griffin recorded
Shoebat's lecture to law enforcement and first respondent personnel
in South Dakota. Griffin’s remarks included, "Shoebat’s
message to the law enforcement agencies, churches and universities
that pay him to speak is to trust no Muslims, especially the
ones that organize. 'All Islamic organizations in America should
be the No. 1 enemy. All of them,' he said at the South Dakota
conference." Shoebat has a handler, but we cannot see him.
His written rebuttal to CNN is revealing in that it is far more
professional than he is capable of himself. He was stumbling,
shamefaced and sometimes belligerent in his CNN interview with
Drew Griffin; he could not even recall the names of his Board
of Directors, and he had no explanation for why his alleged crimes
and arrest time in Israel were unknown there. Shoebat’s
written rebuttal is brilliant in its ability to avoid questions,
while scoffing at the CNN documentary, and could only have been
done by a PR pro who realized that a lie still has value so long
as some will believe it. Shoebat cries, “poor me”,
a persecuted philanthropist giving money to save Christians,
who he says are being murdered by Muslims. He makes no mention
of his largess from the Department of Homeland Securities. Too
bad we can not uncover his agent and his writer. I would guess
from their style that both are Israelis. Continued:

- THE DAKE'S BIBLE: HAGIN'S AND COPELAND'S DOCTRINES
- Date: Jul 19, 2011 12:16 PM - The Dake’s Bible was the
foundation of many Kenneth Hagin’s and Kenneth Copeland’s
heresies. You cannot call most of his key writings anything less
than heresy. He begins his commentary on the New Testament by
declaring with an unequivocal statement that Jesus Christ was
not the Anointed Son of God until He was baptized by John the
Baptist at 30 years of age. His full statement direct from his
commentary will be stated below but to set the record as we begin,
he stated, “who became the Christ or the “Anointed
one” 30 years after he was born of Mary.” That statement
leaves no room for doubting what Dake means and it is false and
damning to the soul. Jesus Christ said of Himself “I am
Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord,
which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
(Revelation 1:8) He was conceived of the Holy Ghost and born
of a virgin. There was no sin nature in Him. John stated, And
the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us….”(John
1:14a)At twelve years of age he confounded the Learned at the
Temple in Jerusalem by allowing the Words of His Divine nature
to flow out of Him.

- CHRISTIANITY TODAY: HARRY POTTER?? A ROLE MODEL? AND A GREAT
THING??
LTRP Note: The following article is not to be considered an endorsement
for the emerging/contemplative-promoting Christianity Today but
is posted for informational and research purposes only. Please
see our links below the article for critique of Harry Potter.
The release of the final Harry Potter movie isn?t an end at all.
The Hogwarts saga . . has provided both a role model . . . This
is a great thing. The love of these books and their characters
confirms the power of traditional Christian literary arts to
reach and stir the human heart. It also confirms Tertullian?s
remarkable observation that ?all souls are Christian souls?:
that we all have darkened hearts that only Christ can illumine.-
Granger, Christianity Today
- by John Granger Free-Lance Writer for CT - Christianity Today
- As part two of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows opens in
theaters worldwide this month, we have reached the final chapter?of
sorts. It?s a phenomenon that began 13 years ago with the release
of the first installment in J. K. Rowling?s series. I?m a Potter
pundit who has written and edited as many books about the Hogwarts
saga as there are novels in said series. So you would think I?d
be sad to see the tale of the boy wizard come to an end. But
I?m not, because the tale is not ending. Harry is here to stay.
- What makes me think that Potter mania will not go the way
of the Hula-Hoop and pet rock is the remarkable ripple effect
of Harry?s seven-year battle with the Dark Lord. The Hogwarts
saga has reshaped our ideas of what a story can and should do,
and writers and filmmakers have and will continue to respond
to this new set of audience expectations. Click here to continue

- EVANGELICALS AND CATHOLICS TOGETHER AND THE REJECTION OF
END-TIME, BIBLE-BELIEVING CHRISTIANS
- by Roger Oakland - Understand the Times - If you haven?t
already noticed, anti-Christian sentiment is growing toward those
who believe in a biblical last days/Book of Revelation scenario
prior to Christ?s return. A 2005 article titled ?Lutheran leader
calls for an ecumenical council to address growing biblical fundamentalism?
should help convince you. The article shows not only this growing
resentment towards Bible-believing Christians but also the interspiritual
path this change in attitude is taking:
- The leader of the nation?s largest Lutheran has called for
a global Christian council to address an ?identity crisis? on
how churches interpret and understand the Bible. Presiding Bishop
Mark Hanson of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America ? called
for Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican and Lutheran churches
to come together to combat a fundamentalist-millenialist-apocalypticist
reading of Scripture.1
- Hanson?s request for a group to monitor and expose anti-ecumenists
who take the Bible literally carries some weight! His message
contains other statements showing his concern about Bible literalists?particularly
those who take Bible prophecy seriously and see Israel and the
Middle East crisis as an end-times sign post. The article continues:
- [M]ainline churches traditionally are uneasy with literal
readings of Scripture, particularly in fundamentalist churches,
regarding the end of the world and political unrest in the Middle
East. In addition, mainline churches have been divided over what
the Bible says about hot-button issues such as homosexuality
and women?s ordination.2

- THE JESUIT AGENDA AND THE EVANGELICAL/PROTESTANT CHURCH
- Understand the Times/Lighthouse Trails Special Report - According
to Bible prophecy, a one-world religion that will offer the promise
of peace throughout the world is going to commence prior to Christ’s
return. To most, this global body will seem like a wonderful
thing and very possibly will be a pseudo-Christianity (coming
in the name of “Christ”); however, contrary to how
the masses will view it, it will actually help establish and
set up the antichrist and his one- world government.
- In order for this to happen, all religions must come together
in an ecumenical plan. Today, as part of this Satanic scheme,
the evangelical/Protestant church is being drawn seductively
into the Roman Catholic church, largely through what we call
“The Jesuit Agenda.” Incredibly, while the evidence
is obvious to some, the majority of proclaiming Christians are
not at all aware it is happening.
- So, what should we expect if we are in the time when such
a system unfolds? First, many who once were Protestant and evangelical
will become ecumenical and eventually assimilate with the Roman
Catholic church. Second, all religions will unite in solidarity
of purpose. Understanding the Jesuit Agenda is essential if we
are to understand how this worldwide deception will come about.
- WHO ARE THE JESUITS?
- Since its foundation, the Catholic papacy has been zealous
and often brutal in its endeavor to establish the kingdom of
the Pope (of whom it is believed within the Catholic church is
headed by Jesus Christ). In fact, the Pope has been referred
to as the “Vicar of Christ.” This determination was
witnessed during the Inquisition where countless thousands, if
not millions, died cruelly for resisting Rome. Foxe’s Book
of Martyrs describes many of these atrocities.
- While many believers in Christ during the Reformation period
attempted to spread the truth that God’s Word was truly
God’s Word and could not be squandered and kept hostage
by the papacy and the Catholic Church, it was not long before
the Counter Reformation was founded to bring the “Separated
Brethren” back to the “Mother of All Churches.”
- This Counter Reformation was largely headed by Ignatius Loyola,
the man who founded the Jesuit Order in the mid 1500s and launched
an all-out attack against those who dared stand against the papacy
and Rome. This excerpt from Foxe’s Book of Martyrs gives
us an idea of the nature and determination of this Counter Reformation:

- LAWMAKERS WANT TO END CENSORSHIP OF WORD 'GOD' AT CEMETERY
- Thursday, June 30, 2011 - HOUSTON (KTRK) -- We have an update
to the fight over saying God and Jesus at Houston National Cemetery.
Texas Congressman Ted Poe wants the head of the cemetery fired
for what he calls aggressive, hostile censorship of religion.
Veterans' groups and local clergy say Cemetery Director Arlene
Ocasio told them they could not use the words God and Jesus during
funerals at the cemetery. A local pastor went to federal court
so he could say Jesus Christ during a Memorial Day event at the
cemetery. Another Congressman wants action over this issue. "It's
shocking and really abhorrent to our veterans that they can't
have a proper military burial and not refer to God or Jesus Christ
and have the chapel at the military cemetery shut down. To me
its very shocking. I think it does cry for action," said
Congressman Michael McCaul.
- The Veterans Administration said its policy bars VA-sponsored
honor guards from making recitations at funerals unless requested
by the deceased's survivors. Continued:
