Introduction

Satan from the beginning has used deception to try and gain control of man. God

told the serpent (Satan), “I will put enmity or division between your seed and the seed of

woman.” Satan has a strong understanding of what God’s plan is. Be conscious of the fact

that Satan does not completely comprehend what God's outline for us is. Satan did glean an

understanding from what God said concerning the seeds. God was going to separate the

seeds. Satan, since the beginning, has been using his power to thwart the plan of God.

However, Satan is not in command. The whole scenario is known only to God. Satan just

knows what God tells him.

We read in Genesis chapter 6 that the sons of God

had children with the daughters of men. These sons of

God were angels. My purpose here is not to argue

scriptures. One can either agree with me or not. Indeed,

the fallen angels left their own habitation and had children

with woman. This act created giants. These are referred to

as “Nephilim” in the Bible. This cross between woman and

angels not only created a physical difference, but a

spiritual difference as well. In reading what I am about to

write you may well ask, “Why don't you give me more

information? Why aren't there references to these

comments?”

I do understand that it may seem farfetched that the

fallen angels engendered a hybrid race with man. This

intermingling of two different kinds of beings seems

difficult to discern for some people in the scriptures.

Some may even arrive at the conclusion that no such thing ever happened. However, if one

is willing to except this as a spiritual truth, we can most assuredly assume this will give us

some insight on things to come. Indeed, there was a hybrid race that existed. And according

to the scriptures it existed before and after the flood. It is here in which the seeds of Satan’s

kingdom were planted. From their inception the seeds have since germinated. The “Tares”

within the satanic kingdom keep growing in number.

You may think I need to make the case for you. I don't, my only purpose here is to

ask that you would at least open your eyes. That you would think about things that are

both past and present. That you would see for yourself if what I have to say is the truth. I


4

suspect most people will have very little interest in what I write here. They will probably

take very little away from what they read. You are going to get out of this what you put

into it. There is no secret knowledge here. There is no lost symbol. There is no Holy Grail

here. This is all very plain and simple. Anyone can gain the understanding of this.

Everything is very simple in God's plan. It is Satan who comes up with the complex

deception hidden in secrecy and darkness.

There are two kingdoms. Satan at presents uses his seeds to carry out his agenda. Let

us not make the same mistake the apostles did with Jesus while in Gethsemane. He told

them to pray and instead they fell asleep. He went back to them 3 times. Every time they

were asleep. He wanted them to watch and pray, but they slept. Satan and his demons

have an army going about his work, but is the church busy about the Father's business? This

lukewarm, lackadaisical, slumbering walk is not what Jesus expects of us. Satan likes to lull

us to sleep. Satan will tell you not to listen to the watchmen. He will make it seem that we

need to put our faith in the world instead of Christ. We need to watch, pray, and wake out

of our slumber. Jesus is going to hold us accountable for our indifference, our not watching,

our letting people go to a devil's hell.

I pray that God brings forth watchmen to sound the alarm. I also pray that people

heed the alarm. The scriptures state that judgment will begin in the house of "God”. What

about the body of Christ? The scriptures warn that there will be wolves entering into the

flock. “Tares” are coming in as angels of light under Satan. They will bring with them

deception. Keep in mind that even though there are wheat and tares sitting on pews, Jesus

still knows who are his.

The Freemasons

I believe that most Non-Christians understand the struggle between good and evil. I

feel that even they, to some degree, are aware something is askew. I am a lot more

comfortable with someone who sees a conspiracy theory in everything as opposed to those

who refuse to open their eyes. Let us be clear here concerning what could be considered a

“conspiracy”. It makes no difference if you are a Freemason or a terrorist; they both are

working for the same master. This is a spiritual fight, not a carnal one. As Jesus said, “How

can Satan cast out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.”

Satan works both sides against the middle. Chaos, confusion, division, and deception will

be used to usher in the new world order. This new world order will be lead by the beast out

of the sea, who is Satan’s number one accomplice. We must understand that the beast does

not conjure up this system, he just takes it over. There is coming a day and it is coming soon

when you will not be able to have one foot in the kingdom of God and one foot in the

world.

Freemasons influence on the

dollar bill.

Have we over complicated the word of God? Are

we searching for secret things in the wrong places and

coming up with the wrong meaning? The bible codes,

mathematical equations, and the astrological comparisons

are amazing. But, are they what we should be looking at

when we try to seek out the truth in the word of God? I

believe the Gnostics thought so. They even thought this

was the way to true knowledge. In all probability they

may have believed this was the true path to God. There

seems to be a lot of interest lately in past and future events.

Secret signs, symbols, astrological phenomenon. A lot of

interest in finding the “secret”.

Quite simply, take a look at Washington, DC and notice just how influential the

Freemasons have been on our capital. There is also evidence of the Freemason influence on

the dollar bill. If one is not familiar with Freemasonry, it is fairly easy to research.

Freemasons willingly admit to being a secret society. Despite this policy of secrecy, much

has been discovered concerning the Freemasons. It's what it is and what it represents that is

kept secret. The majority of the freemason’s members are kept in the dark. The higher you

go in freemasonry the more (knowledge) you receive. Most people within the ranks

Freemasonry don’t really understand about the esoteric workings of the group.

The Freemasons openly defy the biblical commandment, “There shall be no other


6

Gods before me”. They believe in a mixture of all Gods into one. According to the

Freemasons we could simply combine the Muslim, Christian, and Hindu religions as if they

were one. If you doubt my logic read the works of their leaders. Albert Pike is a very

notable Freemason. The founding fathers admired Pike so much they had a statue

constructed honoring him in Washington DC. Pike is best known for his work, Morals and

Dogma, published in 1871. I encourage you to take a look at Pikes work and ask yourself

some serious questions. It is my viewpoint that Albert Pikes literary works stand in direct

opposition of what Gods plan for us is.

The preeminent 33rd degree Freemasons rule in secrecy over the lower ranking

masons. These are the people who supposedly possess the secret knowledge, the lost

symbol, the secret sign, or the Holy Grail. What they possess is not of significance. That

which possesses them is of considerable significance. They have bowed to the temptation of

Satan. Is there a knowledge that they possess that we don’t? If you go back in the scriptures

concerning Moses you will see that the Egyptian wise men possessed three powers. They

were able to do a lot of the things that God did through Moses. Not all of them but some.

If you go to Daniel you will discover people known as the Chaldeans. They possessed

knowledge of astrology and the stars. These people were even around in Abraham’s day.

These people possess knowledge of the zodiac, astrology, geometry, and mathematics.

They also figured out that through money and banking that they would be able to control

the world. Whoever controls the money pretty much is in control. If you find my views on

Freemasonry to be erratic I would like to invite you to read the works of our sixth

president, John Quincy Adams. He warned us about what had happened and what would

happen if Freemasonry was allowed to go on unnoticed.

Someone in the scriptures that was never understood to me was Solomon the son of

David and Bathsheba. He was one of only seven people that were named by God before

birth. His name was Jedediah or “Beloved of God”. Solomon was the name given to him

by David. Solomon means peace. Of the seven named by God, Solomon is the only one

who is never again mentioned by the name God gave him. As you know, Solomon is the

one who built the first permanent temple. I find it very interesting that Solomon had

commissioned King Tyre help him build the temple. Spiritually King Tyre is Lucifer or Satan.

One could rightly conclude that King Tyre would be the antithetical choice for building

God's temple. Solomon did come to build the temple in seven years. The temple was to be

built after the design God gave to David. I am not quite sure if this design had come to

fruition through the working of Solomon. Hiram of Tyre was to do all the brass work. He

made the two brass pillars with the names Joachin and Boaz. These two structures are

undoubtedly pagan structures. Hiram also made the molten sea which was shaped like a

cup. This set upon twelve brass oxen with three looking each direction. Solomon finished

the temple and made a prayer to God. He also offered the sacrifices.

God told Solomon he would be blessed if he followed his commandments and

cursed if he didn’t. Unfortunately Solomon started out well and ended up erroneously.

Solomon practiced more wickedness then Saul. Saul may have in desperation sought out a

witch, but Solomon openly worshipped and made temples to false gods. Solomon fell into


7

complete idolatry.

Around 1000 AD we begin to see historic events linked to the crusades and the

Knights Templar. The Knights Templar were basically a group of mercenary soldiers who

were supposed to protect the crusaders. This period spanned almost two hundred years. At

one point in time the Knights Templar resided where Solomon's temple once was. Legend

has it that the Knights Templar found a covert secret that they in turn blackmailed the

Roman Catholic Church with. Rumors also lead some to believe the king of France was

blackmailed as well. After the crusades the Knights Templar became very wealthy. They

also became very adept in money management and banking. The Pope was very

uncomfortable with the Knights Templar and their influence. He found a loyal ally in the

King of France. The King saw getting rid of the Knights Templar as a win, win situation. He

was burdened with debts he had to them. On a Friday the 13th, which is probably where

this superstition comes from, the king gathered up all the knights he could find. Many had

already been warned and escaped by ship, supposedly with their treasure whatever it was.

The leader of the Knights Templar was caught and he was burned at the stake. This was at

the time when the Roman Catholic Church thought they were serving God by assassinating

everyone who they considered a heretic, witch, or just plain didn’t care for.

Skulls and Bones an elite Yale University Society

(George Bush Jr. & John Kerry are former members)

Then the mysterious Knights Templar just seemed to vanish out of thin air. Or did

they? Another group picked up where the Knights Templar left off. They possibly went by

a different name. They did however have the same malevolent benefactor. Satan or Lucifer

is the vanguard of this group. They are known to us by the name of The Freemasons. They

trace themselves back to the building of Solomon's temple and Hiram Abiff. There is no one

named Hiram Abiff in the bible but I think it’s safe to assume this name refers to Hiram of

Tyre who did the brass works. The Freemasons temples are patterned after Solomon's

temple. The directions have been changed, for east becomes west. As I stated before

Freemasonry is full of imagery and most of it deals with Solomon's temple. The use of

geometry, mathematics and astrology is evident in Freemasonry. Again, look at

Washington DC, the way it is laid out, the buildings, the statures etc. The Freemasons even

have a statue of their champion Albert Pike in Washington. What in the world is his statue

doing in our capital! For all of you who do not know anything about the Freemasons, Skull

and Bones, the illuminati, and the past presidents then you owe yourself to do a little

research. Do not expect to learn much at the official websites of the Freemasons. The

Freemasons power reaches all way up to the highest branch of our government. Of our

past presidents John F. Kennedy was the only one to refuse following the orders of the

Freemasons. This decision may have cost him his life.

I would like to have a discussion with these enlightened ones. Very powerful people

who control much of what goes on in the world belong to these secret organizations. These

individuals are not very tolerant of those who intrude on their secrecy. The reason you do

not hear much about this is because they also control most of the media. Are any of these

individuals really looking out for you? Just because things are right or left, liberal or

conservative, that is not the deciding factor. As long as there is chaos, confusion, and

division, then Satan's work is being done.

These secret societies also need to keep in mind that nothing is secret to God. Being

deceived into believing that Lucifer is the light bearer and the true God is not going to hold

water with the true and living God. No matter how powerful Satan's deception is.

Warfare

Why is there secrecy? I'm not talking about just with the Freemasons, but why is

there secrecy? Organizations like the CIA, FBI, have secrets. Even public office holders have

secret meetings. Closed door meetings mean they are secret except to those inside the

doors. Should there be secrets? What justifies something being secret? What is the litmus test

for justifiable secrecy? Is there such a test? Could we use the word of God as the litmus

test? The word of God surely lists behaviors and actions that are good and those that are

evil. Something that is secret should never be something that is a lie or that misleads or is

deceptive. Secrecy gets tied into keeping some unaware of what is going on. The thing we

have to look at is why people are being kept unaware.

You could adopt the elitist view that most are just too ignorant to be trusted with

the truth or to be involved in decisions. This was the mindset of Adolf Hitler. In his

pretentious scheme of things he felt he knew what Germany needed and the public was too

ignorant or wouldn’t understand. He thought that the public should just trust him and his

experts.

How fortunate for governments that the

people they administer don't think.

Adolf Hitler

Most all of us are familiar with the events that played out during World War II. Is it

possible that this war is part of an evil scheme? When Adolf Hitler came to power he

introduced the ideology of Nazism in book called Mein Kampf. Are we to believe this

madman came into power by serendipity? Hitler’s decision making, military planning, and

lust for conquest, was driven by Satan.

My father and two of his brothers served in World War II. The youngest brother

never made it back. My dad was contacted by a former German soldier about a book he

was writing on World War II. He had seen my dad's picture in some army books and


10

recognized they had fought against each other. At one point these two would have taken

the other’s life without hesitation. Now all these years later they were corresponding with

each other over this book. They were communicating with each other like neighbors

reminiscing on old times. You see it was not my dad or this man who were evil. They were

both were under the impression they were defending their country. They felt it was their

duty. I felt the same way when I was drafted. Often when discussing World War II many try

to make the case that fighting this war was a must. It is true that Nazism was evil, but were

our hands really clean? If my father and this German soldier were able to correspond over

a book, is it so impossible to imagine we could have arrived at a peaceful solution? Imagine

if we held our leaders up to this kind of a standard. What if we proactively voted out any

member of congress who couldn’t broker a peace deal with other countries?

Unfortunately, our leaders are not the only ones who call for bloodshed.

Analyze Nazi Germany during World War II. Try to pinpoint who the financiers of

this war were. See who the major players were. Find out who the world leaders were in

World War II, who they belonged to, and what countries they were from. See what

banking system was and still is controlled almost exclusively by one family. The role of the

Soviet Union during World War II is of great significance. The Soviet’s involvement during

the end of the war coincides with a communistic rise in power.

The United States prides itself on fighting evil. However, to battle this evil it takes a

lot of currency and resources. America since the beginning has been involved in more

warfare than any other country. If our objective as a country is destroying evil, what kind

of message did the civil war send? Did you ever notice that we fight evil and the only thing

that changes is our opponents? We seem to have fought on both sides in some of these

wars. Someone who is our ally can then become our foe. Is it possible to surmise we just like

to war? Have you ever stopped to think why we are having all these wars? In this country

are we really calling the shots concerning these wars? What if management or the

government is not really being honest with its workers (citizens)? Could our government be

getting orders from upper management or a world government organization?

Why did the world leaders align with the Soviet Union and communism during the

end of World War II? Our government had plans for the Soviet Union. Communism would

be the next evil mask. As I said, we are always fighting evil, we just change the masks. Our

wonderful ally, the Soviet Union, would now become our evil enemy. Hence, the cold war

began. We never actually fought an outright battle with the Soviet Union. We just

supported their enemies. It didn’t make any difference what country it was. As long as one

side claimed allegiance to communism, we placed our support with the non-communistic

government. We even changed sides in Afghanistan and took out our former ally Saddam

Hussein in Iraq. At one point Saddam played a key role in fighting an Iranian-Soviet Union

alliance. The sides aren’t important as long as you keep fighting. Now Islam is the new

enemy we have to kill. Notice, the Evil One just keeps changing masks, or should I say

helmets. Does anyone remember the saying, “Suppose they gave a war and no one came?”

If someone ever had their eyes opened to these wars maybe no one would show up. If the

elite members of congress had to actually fight in the wars they orchestrate, we would


11

rarely be involved in warfare.

In the Sermon on the Mount or the beatitudes Jesus said, “Blessed are the

peacemakers, for they shall inherit the earth.” Matthew Chapter 5 verse 9 says, “Blessed are

the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God.” Again, why are there so

many wars? Perhaps a better question to ask, “Why do the voices of the peacemakers go

unheard? Has the body of Christ bought into and so embraced the military war machine?

James explains in James chapter 4 verse 1 where war and fighting comes from. We call

ourselves followers of Jesus, yet we embrace the military war machine. How does warfare

line up with the word of God? Jesus showed Peter that the sword was not the answer. Right

by might will never be the answer. The military war machine is almost idolized in the

United States. These professional solders, officers, generals, and Commanders are revered.

Is the body of Christ really supposed to be conjoined with the military war machine? Jesus

never was. He knew Pilate was going to have him unjustly crucified. He did not organize a

Special Forces group to take out Pilate. If your heroes belong to the military war machine so

be it. I am not condemning the people in the military. A hero to me would be someone

who could stop a war and save life instead of destroying it.

One day Jesus is going to put an end to this warfare. Those who cry for bloodshed

will no longer be tolerated within the body of Christ. The religious leaders of Israel would

have embraced Jesus if he told them he was the warrior king who was going to annihilate

Rome. Jesus had no part of it. He knew the hearts of those wanting to solicit him as a

warrior king. It is Satan's plan to have these wars right to the end. Warfare, conflict,

bloodshed, hatred, chaos, and destruction are all part of Satan's plan. Unfortunately the

church can’t see it. Right now Iraq appears to have been taken off our radar so now our

attention has shifted to Afghanistan. The mainstream media agonized over the war in Iraq

(CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, and CBS), yet they readily embraced the war in Afghanistan.

What is the difference? Afghanistan is simply another enemy, another mask, or another

form of evil. Is Iran, North Korea, or Pakistan next? Who knows, but you can rest assured

Satan and those he controls will line someone else up. This is Satan's plan to usher in the

beast. Satan is under the perception that he can create such a chaotic, divisive, deceptive

world that it will virtually destroy Christianity. As I said before, he is not in control. He

operates off of what God lets him. It may seem if God is in control then he is the one who

is condemning the people to hell with Satan. No, God is not. You go to hell and the lake of

fire by choice. Do not ever let anyone tell you that there is no hell or lake of fire.

I hope one does not get the impression that I am advocating the overthrow of

government. I have been commanded by God to obey the law of the government. If the

speed limit is fifty five miles per hour then I need to obey it. If I’m required to pay state and

federal taxes then I must obey the law. I must obey the laws of the land. There is one

exception to his however and that is when the law goes against the word of God. An

example of this would be when the three Israelites, Hanniah, Mishael and Azarriah were

supposed to bow to the image that king Nebuchadnezzar had made. You may know these

three men as Shadrack, Meschak and Abed-nego. Do not ever let the world name you and

define who you are. This is not just a story about being thrown in a fiery furnace. These 3


12

men would not compromise their walk with God and you are not supposed to either. They

told Nebuchadnezzar that God could deliver them from the fiery furnace, but even if he

didn’t they wouldn’t bow. How much bowing and compromising do we do? God is going

to hold me accountable for warning others. I do not want the blood of the lost on my

hands.


13

Money, The Root of All Evil

Our current president talked about how there was going to be transparency and

change in the way of doing things. Is there? Why isn’t there transparency? Is it because there

are underlying agendas? Companies for example are out to make money. You’re valuable

to them as long as you’re making them money. Your value is based on your productivity

and profitability to them. The scriptures state that money is the root of all evil. Does this

mean that all evil sprang from money? No, of course not. Adam and Eve didn’t know what

money was. So you had evil in the world before you had money. Now is making money

evil? No, of course not. Is the company that wants to be profitable evil? No, of course not.

Can they be tempted to do evil things and compromise themselves to get money? Yes, of

course. If one is being untruthful, deceptive, or telling half truths, they are compromising

themselves and this is evil. Money in and of itself is neither good nor evil. The means to

which it is earned can be. Money can be a great temptation and temptation can lead to

getting it through compromise. Money can not only be earned by evil means it can also be

used for evil means. If money earned by evil means is used for good, the end does not

justify the means. The Shriners (A branch of Freemasonry) are an example of this. Their

blood soaked fez and false God worship is hidden behind helping children.

If one looks at a company or corporation they will typically notice a bottom line

aimed at making money. Their decisions are based on profitability. Is this wrong or evil?

Not in and of itself it isn’t. Should money always be the deciding factor in decisions? What

if the workers shared the same knowledge as the management? Would this somehow

dismantle the company? Wouldn’t a worker whose company was completely honest with

him be more inclined to completely be honest with the company? Wouldn’t he feel that he

was truly a part of the company and shared in its future? I wonder if anyone ever thought

if just being open and honest would be the best policy. If one could truly trust the

government, a company, or a person, wouldn’t this be a common practice?

There is no doubt that money makes the world go round. One cannot survive

without money. You need money to do about everything. Money is power. Money is

influence. Money gives status. Money speaks. There is a great temptation to have money

and the more the better. It becomes a goal. Now again, there is nothing wrong with

money, but we must take notice if it is earned an unrighteous way. It’s been said that

whoever controls the money is in control. Proverbs chapter 22 verse 7 states the rich rules

over the poor and the borrower is servant to the lender. One can see that money and good

and evil can be linked together.

Do you recall the Great Depression? Many of the politicians of this era looked

towards socialist programs to save our country. An example of this would be Social


14

Security. Unfortunately, the socialist programs implemented by our government never got

us out of the Depression. The economic collapse was used as a ploy to bring in big

government run social programs. Much like what we have now with Healthcare. Congress

endeavors to bring in socialist programs with no concern towards the consequences. In

most cases, such as with healthcare, congress neglected to even read over the legislation

before voting on it.

Socialist programs are a tool that Satan can effectively utilize. With these programs

Satan is able to rule efficiently. When the government runs and controls everything, Satan

just needs to control and run the government. Satan can also work with capitalism just as

easily. However, Satan finds Socialism to be superior when compared to Capitalism. This

way there is never any interference from the private sector. There will be no meaningful

governmental participation from private individuals at this point. Their role has been

eliminated entirely from the governmental process.


15

The Lukewarm Church

Jesus in the book of revelation talks to the seven churches in Asia Minor. It

sometimes seems confusing when we speak of the church. We are the church. Each one of

us comprises the embodiment church. The church is not a denomination. The church is

comprised of the born again believers. We are the temple of God. We assemble ourselves in

a house of prayer and worship, but neither the building nor its name defines the church.

The denominations are not the church. We are the Church.

Notice when Jesus speaks to the church in Laodicea he tells them that they are

neither hot nor cold, but instead they are lukewarm. How many of us fall in this lukewarm

category? How many go through the religious motions? How many truly read and study

the word of God like we should? How many have compassion for those being deceived by

Satan?

In my previous experiences I have used the hypothetical example of seeing my

neighbor lying on the lawn kicking his feet and flailing his arms. I go over to him to see if he

is ok and he says, “Oh sure, I'm just swimming”. I say, “But you don't have a pool or water

to swim in”. He says, “Oh, I don't need a pool or water to swim”. Now he may be

doing something, but he is surely not swimming. He is simply going through the motions of

swimming. You see, as long as life is good we want to leave things alone. We go to Sunday

school and hear teaching that we have heard ten times before. We go to worship service,

sing a few songs, hear a sermon, maybe go through the motion of praying for someone and

then go home and go through the same thing next week. This is what Christ meant by

“Lukewarm”. I say this so we recognize we need to let the Holy Spirit in and let the

written word transform us. It’s surely not God's plan for us to be lukewarm. God wants us

to be laborers in the harvest. I don't know how many of you are laborers in your

occupations, but if you are, you know what it means to work. They won't keep you for

very long if all you want to do is stand around and take it easy.

In my mind I can picture how everyday life looks if we just back away. Imagine

watching a movie where the director zooms in on a town and you see people going about

their everyday lives. Going to work, going shopping, mowing the lawn, and driving along

the street. This is a prime example of our life. We are typically concerned with our

everyday affairs and our job. Sometimes we feel that we don’t have the time to think about

what is really going on around us. We become caught up in ourselves. Is this the plan of

God for our life? We need to ask ourselves, what is God's purpose for us? Do the things that

we do line up with his purpose? Everything that we do should line up with Gods purpose

for us. We should be doing everything as if we are doing it for God. When you get mad at

the driver who just pulled out in front to you, and then continues to go 25 miles per hour,


16

while you’re late for your dentist appointment, remember whose you are.

Who are we really supposed to be as the body of Christ? I'm sure some of you have

probably heard the statement, “That person is so heavenly minded that they are of no

earthly good”. We need to come to an understanding of what it means to be heavenly

minded. If one doesn't think that there is spiritual warfare for our souls then they need to be

awoken out of their slumber. The scriptures state we don't wrestle against flesh and blood,

but against spiritual powers in high places. Forgive me as I go through this. I may

paraphrase some scriptures. My intent is not to deceive or put my own slant on the

scripture. Again we need to realize we are engaged in spiritual warfare. Although this

warfare may come against us in the natural in such things as economics, governments, and

religion, etc; it is still spiritual warfare. We cannot fight these things with carnal things. We

cannot win carnal battles if we fight them in a carnal way. It is not by might or power, but

by God's Spirit. The battle does not belong to us, but we do need to be aware of what the

battle is and what part we play in it. Remember in the scriptures when David fought

Goliath the giant? He used what God had already equipped him with. He didn’t need Saul's

armor. What he had was very familiar to him. God had already equipped him for the fight.

The battle was God's and not David's. If God’s will is for you to be victorious, nothing

would be able to stand before you. You must remember that you are already victorious.

You may get knocked down, but as long as you keep getting up you win.

Read the book of revelation where Jesus talks to the church. Some of us are sitting in

some very misguided congregations, but still belong to Jesus. That is why it is not your

denomination that is your salvation. Your salvation comes by Jesus. Jesus is the way, the

truth and the light. Not one of the ways. Not one version of the truth. Not one of the

lights. It is a shame when some Pastors and even leaders of large flocks know so little about

the word of God. It is a shame when some Pastors preach prosperity messages that would

rival the worlds. It is a shame when some pastors preach positive thinking as the way to

overcome. It is a shame when Pastors preach steps to deliverance. It is a shame when

Pastors have you finishing the race as soon as you start. A race has a start and a finish. They

are not one and the same. This would equate to running only 10 yards in the Boston

Marathon and proclaiming you are the winner. If this is the case, don’t expect a prize. What

truly is a shame is that there are pastors who cannot see we are in a spiritual battle for souls.

We look at things going on around us and we try to figure out what is happening.

We already have a mindset that we have all our ducks in a row. We get predisposed when

someone tries to move one of our ducks. If you do not have Jesus as your Savior, Lord and

master, this will all seem strange. We need to understand that the kingdom of God is not

based on our own understanding or wisdom. We are not to lean to our own

understanding. If you are a member of the body of Christ your knowledge and wisdom

should come from God through the written word and the Holy Spirit.

I believe most who say they are Christians would say that they believe in the struggle

between good and evil. I daresay they would also say that there is a struggle between God

and Satan. Unfortunately those of us who call ourselves Christians cannot even agree on


17

who God is. This is a sad state of affairs. Trying to teach the lost when we appear to be lost

to the lost. There is only one body of Christ. There is only one God. The problem arises in

all the different opinions of who God is, who Jesus is, who the son of God is, who the son

of man is, who the lamb is, who the lion of Judah is, who the alpha and omega is, who the

first and the last is, and who the Almighty is. Why has all this confusion come about in the

body of Christ? Jesus is either who he said he was or else he is a liar and a fraud.

Unfortunately there are Christians who do not know who he is. Maybe they need to read

the gospel of John, where the Apostle Thomas's eyes are opened to who Jesus is, and he

says My Lord and my God. We like to fight and argue amongst ourselves. Call each other

names. Mock each other. Where does this division and discord come from? No, it does not

come from some person, some denomination, or some group. It comes from Satan. Satan

is out to destroy the body of Christ. Unfortunately for him the gates of hell shall not prevail

against the church. But, one must admit he has been doing a steadfast job of sowing

discord, confusion, and division in the body of Christ. Be mindful that Satan is not

somebody running around with the stereotypical horns and a pitchfork. He shows himself

as an angel of light. He may even be using someone to preach from your pulpit or teach in

your denomination.

Our worship in Christ is becoming ritualized and repetitive. It is scripted,

predictable, and lukewarm. We are being lulled asleep. Jesus hates a lukewarm church. It

makes him puke. Satan loves the lukewarm church. Many people long for their ears to be

tickled. When the Apostles preached the Holy Scriptures, they were not out to be popular

or to be religiously correct. Religious correctness runs parallel to political correctness. How

often do we receive religiously correct messages that are constructed to appease the

masses? Adulterers will go to hell, however, often people are not told this so no one gets

distressed. Aborting your child is unequivocally morally wrong! This message should be

spoken without concern of who becomes agitated as a result of its deliverance. How often

do Pastors look to keep high numbers in their congregation through religious correctness?

Have you heard these religiously correct messages before? Jesus loves you, try to do better,

and keep a positive mindset. Or God's grace will take care of you no matter what kind of a

sinful lifestyle you have. Well, Jesus does not say any of that. Matter of fact he said there

are going to be those who come before him and say Lord, Lord I loyally went to church,

and he is going to say depart from me you workers of iniquity for I never knew you. Jesus

never said preach a gospel of compromise. A pastor of a flock who cannot tell the

difference between what is good and evil dooms not only himself, but could potentially

condemn his whole flock. This kind of pastor should be removed from his station.

You’re going to find that evangelism is going to transform. The misguided teachings

are not going to hold up to scrutiny. Our entire way of looking at things is going to be

called into question. The deception that will be revealed will cause confusion. It will

perplex many. You had better be rooted and grounded in the word. Know who you are in

Christ so that you can stand and not fall. The time to make up your mind is now. You had

better make up your mind that Jesus is who he says he is and the word of God is the truth.

Remember, God is in control, not Satan. As long as we hold fast we are victorious. You see

the battle between good and evil, truth and deception, has already been fought and won


18

by Jesus. He has won this battle for us. We are still struggling against Satan and the

principalities, but we are victorious over them as long as we hold fast to our faith. Jesus did

not take us out of the world but he gave us power over it. It is however not by might or

power that I overcome. I live by faith in him. I can do nothing by myself. It is only thorough

Christ that I can overcome this. I can do all things through him.


19

Let Christ Open Your Eyes

A Blind Man Healed at Bethsaida

22

Then He came to Bethsaida; and they

brought a blind man to Him, and

begged Him to touch him. 23

So He took

the blind man by the hand and led him

out of the town. And when He had spit

on his eyes and put His hands on him,

He asked him if he saw anything.

24 And he looked up and said, “I see

men like trees, walking.”

25 Then He put His hands on his eyes

again and made him look up. And he

was restored and saw everyone clearly.

God is trying to open our eyes to the works of Satan. Some don’t even believe that

Satan exists. Unfortunately, some sitting on the pews calling themselves Christians do not

even believe there is an angel called Satan. Satan is an angel. Whether you think so or not

he has powers on earth to steal, kill and destroy. When Jesus spoke to the seven churches in

the book of Revelation, he mentioned Satan to three of them. Those churches are in

Smyrna, Pergamos and Philadelphia. To the church in Smyrna he said, “I know the

blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.”

To the church in Pergamos he said, “I know where Satan's seat is and where Antipas my

faithful martyr was slain amongst you where Satan dwells.” In other words Satan's seat at

that time was in Pergamos. To the church in Philadelphia he said, “I will make them of the

synagogue of Satan which say they are Jews and are not but lie, I will make them come and

bow before you.” To me Jesus is saying that Satan has a seat and a synagogue on earth.

Jesus was signifying that not all people calling themselves Jews belong to him, some belong

to Satan.

When you read the New Testament you see the love, understanding, passion, and


20

compassion of Jesus. He healed those who did not even full understand who he was. He

ate with sinners. He said he came to save the lost. Notice the big contrast when Jesus talks

to the Pharisees and the Sadducees. He minces no words with them. He calls them vipers, as

does John the Baptist. Jesus tells them they are of their father the devil. Not all of Israel is

Israel. One must understand that there are Wheat and Tares. Not all who say they are

Jews are Jews. Not all who say they are Christians are Christians. Politicians for example

purposely target religious causes for their own gain. You will lose a significant part of the

vote if you are not religiously or politically correct. Politicians reverently seek out those

who will give them some sort of religious validity.

My purpose here is to get us to think real hard about what is going or around us.

Satan and those he uses claim that we are dormant and ignorant. Because we tend to place

blind faith the system, there is some truth to what they say about us. Satan and his minions

may think they are in control, but they are not. God is in control. Now one may ask, “Why

in the world would God let Satan do the things he is doing?” If you read the book of Job

you will see that Job wrestled with God over this same issue. Job wanted to know why

God was allowing Satan to destroy him economically and physically. Job felt God should

reveal his plan to him. Job felt that he should know what God knows. Job saw it as unfair

in what God was allowing Satan to do to him.

God was showing Job that we do not have the same thoughts as God. God sees a

bigger picture than we do. God sees things from the beginning to the end. God knew what

Satan would do to Job. God also knew Job would pass the test. If God is for you, who can

triumph over you? God wanted to open Job's eyes to the evil of Satan. God showed Job

that no matter what happened to him he was still in God's hands. When Job got his mind

off himself and he starting praying for others, God restored him. God opened the eyes of

Job.

If only one thing that I write about exposes Satan's plan and those involved; it

would be enough. All I can do is give you this warning. You need to open your eyes. I

cannot see for you. If you think you’re not going to be held accountable, you had better

think again. The scriptures already warn of all these things to come. All I am trying to do is

point out where it exists. Is Satan revealing things to his followers? I believe he is. You must

keep in mind that they have an incomplete knowledge. Only God is all knowing. Satan is

not. Satan tempted Jesus and he can tempt you. If Satan had no power to tempt Jesus, then

there would have been no temptation. How could Jesus be tempted if Satan had nothing

to tempt him with?

The Roman Catholic Church has been under the eye of scrutiny as of late. The

majority of this criticism is certainly justifiable. They unquestionably have allocated

paganism into the church and committed a variety of atrocities in the name of God. Some

Catholics do genuinely try to serve God. The Vatican has been infiltrated by the

Freemasons. Roman Catholicism now has an undeniable unified religious world view.


21

The Roman Catholic religion claims that the Pope

possesses the power of divine judgment. When the

Pope kissed the Muslim Quran was this showing divine

judgment? This gesture should convince you of a

unified Catholic world view. You can chalk it up to a

bad decision if you wish. I can’t accept that

explanation. Can you imagine Christ kissing the Quran?

Christ is who the Pope is supposed to represent.

The Vatican recently hosted a conference on aliens. Not illegal aliens mind you, but

aliens from other worlds. The Vatican also recently held a conference on evolution. You

may want to read the current Vatican’s position on evolution. It might surprise or even

shock you. The Vatican has embraced the theory of evolution. To me this theory is a flawed

hypothesis. There is no proof that man evolved from a common ancestor. It is not known

where life came from when using evolution theory. The debate on the theory of evolution

is not so much a scientific argument as it is a moral and philosophical one. With evolution

or macro-evolution man becomes his own god. He is not accountable to God. No matter

what the Vatican tells you concerning evolution theory, God created man in his own

image. The Vatican has been corrupted once again. The Vatican holds a large collection

documents and artifacts. The Vatican has a history of destroying things that they see as

being in conflict with their beliefs. I find it strange how the papacy used to question

scientific theories and know they embrace everything that comes down the pike in the

name of science.

With the information age that we live in now it is very easy for someone to extract

information from the internet. Even a computer dinosaur like me can use it. As with all

things we must sort out the wheat from the chaff. There are many who feel that there was

once a form of ancient knowledge unbeknownst to present day civilization. Isaac Newton,

among others, felt we could rediscover this knowledge. For those who believe in the false

premise of evolution, wouldn’t it be logical to think that man must also be evolving

mentally and not just physically? When looking back in history it would seem that man has

lost intelligence as opposed to developing a higher form of intellect from evolving. The

Mayans for example understood many things that puzzle us to this very day. Yet, the

Mayan culture has almost vanished entirely from the face of the earth. All that is left behind

is a far more primitive evolutionary by product. The once majestic temples and buildings

are now meager ghostly visages in the jungle. When looking at the Mayan culture it would

appear that the civilization was moving in a backwards direction.

Everywhere we turn we are stumbling over things that just do not stack up right. I

believe the ordinary person is starting to see this sense of disenfranchisement or

powerlessness. That they are just plain being kept in the dark or excluded. It is time we let

Christ open our eyes.


22

Spiritual Discernment

There is indeed a spirit world and a person needs spiritual discernment to test the

spirits. Things are not always as they appear. Demonic spirits are masters of deception. I

believe that demonic spirits possess people today. It did not end with the Apostles. It just

completely bewilders me how some try and Sheppard a flock with very little understanding

of spiritual things. Some denominations may entertain the emotional and physical

manifestations, but do not grasp the powers that are in play.

The discussion always seems to shutdown on matters that are truly spiritual. People

at church will happily participate in a discussion about a new church bus, music changes, or

pastoral duties. Try to bring up something that concerns spiritual warfare in your

congregation. In most cases, it will get quiet and then the subject will change real fast. If you

do not believe me try it sometime. They will speak around you, over you, but never to

you. They will immediately elect to use “secrecy” against you. Do not ever be deceived by

those who think they are spiritual without the word of God. The word and the Spirit

always agree and they go together. Act as spiritual as you want, but if you are not rooted

and grounded in the word, it is all an act. The Holy Spirit will reveal the word. It makes it

come alive. Your spiritual age goes hand in hand with your knowledge of the word age.

And I am not talking about just memorizing scriptures here. Satan knows what the

scriptures say.

There are those who seek information through demonic spirits or familiar spirits.

This is demonic possession. These people go by many names. Some call themselves

Mediums, Occultists, Witches, Sorcerers, Soothsayers, Magicians, and Stargazers. Examples

of them are the witch of Endor whom Saul used to communicate with Samuel. The young

damsel that followed Paul was possessed with the spirit of divination. Then there is the

story of the vagabond of the Jews in Acts 19: 13-16. It says, "Then certain of the vagabond

Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the

Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preached. And there were seven

sons of one Sceva, a Jew and chief of the priests which did so. And the evil spirit answered

and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you? And the man in whom the evil

spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they

fled out of their house naked and wounded." Here, we see vagabond Jews being attacked.

That is the reward of the vagabond. So as you can see these things did happen in both the

Old and New Testament. Jesus cast out many demonic spirits. Understand that people

were possessed by the demonic spirit. The people were not the demonic spirit. The

demonic spirit was just using them.


23

I am sure a lot of people are familiar with movies like The Da Vinci Code. It would

seem to the viewer that Dan Brown wrote the book The Da Vinci Code to shed light on key

Christian beliefs. Is it possible that Dan Brown had an alternate goal? Is it possible to surmise

that he had a goal of financial prosperity? Was Brown serving God or Mammon? If you

discern he was serving Mammon, then it is impossible to conclude he had righteous

intentions. If you find Brown to be a righteous man, ask yourself if the methods he used

lined up with the word of God.

Look not to the astrological signs, symbolism, or the seals. One must understand that

this is not the way to use spiritual discernment. Regardless of how it might seem that is

correct to do so. You cannot come up with the right answer using the tools of Satan. You

cannot use knowledge gained from demonic spirits to prevail against Satan's plan. These

things just show that there is secrecy, deception, and demonic forces at work. There are

those who let themselves get ensnared into Satan's kingdom by seeking familiar spirits out.

Why would people do this? Satan does have power to offer you, but the things that seem

like knowledge only lead to evil. He has tempted many like he did Jesus, only they gave in

to the temptation. You need to read Isaiah chapter 47 to see that you cannot rely on the

things of Satan to engage in spiritual warfare against Satan.

Isaiah 47

1Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground:

there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called

tender and delicate.

2Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover

the thigh, pass over the rivers.

3Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take

vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man.

4As for our redeemer, the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.

5Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou

shalt no more be called, The lady of kingdoms.

6I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into

thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the ancient hast thou very heavily

laid thy yoke.

7And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to

thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it.


24

8Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly,

that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow,

neither shall I know the loss of children:

9But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children,

and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of

thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.

10For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy

wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine

heart, I am, and none else beside me.

11Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth:

and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation

shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.

12Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries,

wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so

be thou mayest prevail.

13Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the

stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things

that shall come upon thee.

14Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver

themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor

fire to sit before it.

15Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, even thy merchants,

from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save thee.

The scenario I have depicted so far may seem catastrophic. Fear not, If you belong

to Jesus you should be rejoicing. This is a triumph of good over evil. We will inherit a

glorious eternal life with God. We get a new spiritual body. We will rule with Jesus. We

must however hold fast to our faith. There are going to be things coming to test our faith.

It is going to seem like we have been wrong and Satan was right. Do not be deceived or

fooled. Hold fast to the word, the prophets that you have received by the Holy Scriptures,

and the apostles through the Holy Spirit. As I stated before, there are a lot of Christians who

are lukewarm. They do not care to hear or talk about any of this. Spiritually they are

unprepared to deal with the events to come. Let me warn you that it is time to wake out of

your slumber! Decide who you are in Christ. Be prepared to be confronted by mass

deception that will shake the earth. This deception will divide those who have the one foot

in the world and one foot in the kingdom of God. The gospel is indeed good news. As long

as you keep your faith, you will be victorious.


25

I pray that someone has taken something out of what I have written. I know that it

is human nature to want the expedient solution. People long for a secret word. Well, there

is no big secret. It is all open to whoever seeks Jesus. Ask Christ for understanding and

wisdom. The Holy Spirit and the word will guide us through the cloud of deception. No

one can understand everything. The world is always looking to confuse us. Salvation comes

by faith and faith by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Salvation does not come by

a miraculous sign. That is not faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence

of things not seen.


26

Reading the Holy Bible

A pastor once told me to take the bible and just read the whole thing from cover to

cover like you would a book. The bible is comprised of many books, but he said just read

it from start to finish like you would read a book. He said one of two things will happen.

Either you will do it and God will bless you for it or Satan will defeat you and you will not

finish it. Thank God I read the Bible from beginning to end. Now I know the walk is much

more than just reading the bible. This was about obedience. One must not only just read

the word, but study the word. Let the Holy Spirit bring the word to life to you. I have

always questioned how people could possibly know the will of God without knowing the

word of God. It is like praying and saying God if it is your will let it come to pass. Well if

you want to know what his will is read the word of God and find out.

The word of God is like and instruction manual. Read every word of the Bible.

Don’t just piecemeal or skip parts at your leisure. One of the major keys to this walk with

Jesus is the word of God. James said, “Show me your faith without works.” I say, “Show

me your walk without the word.” Let us say that you have been unemployed for four

months and you need a job. You finally get one and it seems fantastic. Great benefits, good

wages, and the hours are pretty much up to you. The job is comprised of assembling

electronic devices and the only requirement is that you need to read a 30 page instruction

manual. If you neglect to read the manual, you should not be surprised when your job is

terminated. Praise God and his mercy that he does not fire us. We need to have the

discipline to read the entire word of God. We too often pick and choose the parts we want

to read and ignore the rest. We are to consume the whole book. I wonder how many

Christians have read the entire word of God. Make sure you read every word of the Bible.

Don’t let Satan keep you from reading the word of God.

The word of God is the truth. It has stood the test of time and it will always stand.

The truth will not fail. As long as you stick to the word you will always have truth on your

side. You really have an unfair advantage. You can’t lose this battle when God is on your

side. Can my interpretation of the word be wrong? Yes. Can the word be wrong? No. Do

not ever be afraid to discuss anything in the word of God. Just because your pastor gives

you a message, don’t put blind faith in your pastor being correct. It is your responsibility to

read the truth. You must be able to tell what is righteous and what is unrighteous. God's

word is truth. It stands on its own no matter what.

Do you ever wonder if we are in fact in the last days? I believe we are. I know there

have been prophecies about there being an outpouring of the Holy Spirit and a revival at

the end. This revival is going to be a drawing and a separating. I am not talking about a

unification of religion. I am talking about drawing together as the body of Christ. The latter


27

church will be like the early church. As I have said before, there is going to come a time

soon when there will be large gulf between the church and the world. You will not be able

to straddle it. The church and the world are going to be shaken. Don’t think all you have to

do is just play church and you will be safely raptured away. It will not compare to the

wrath of the lamb in the tribulation period, but the part that we will experience will be

more spiritual than physical. Our very faith will be called into question. The time before the

rapture will be marked with mass deception. If one does not know the word of God you

had better read and study it. If one does not know where they are at in Christ they had

better find out. If one has not have a made up mind they had better make it up. There is

going to be a partial revealing of deception that is going to not only shake the world, but

is going to shake the church. You will need to hold fast to your faith. You will be tempted

to lean to your own understanding and wisdom of the world. You will need to be

anchored, rooted, grounded, and unwavering. The storm will come, the wind will blow,

but as long as you stay firmly planted on the Rock you will be able to stand.

As in times past, be careful who you follow in these last days. Make sure that you are

following Jesus and not just some group, denomination, or some person. Those who do

not know the word of God will be vulnerable to Satan’s lies and deception. When Satan

tempted Jesus, Jesus did not tell Satan about how he had been going to the temple since he

was 12. Christ did not try to impress Satan with his position in the community or in the

synagogue. All Jesus said to him is, "It is written". If we know what is written we will have

the strength to stand when things come against us. The word strengthens us. The time to get

rooted and grounded in the word is not when deception, temptation, trials and

tribulations come. Have the word in you so you will have strength to stand when these

things come. Remember that it rains on the just and the unjust. God never promised that

nothing would ever come against you. What he promised is that he would be with you no

matter what you go through. Trust in God on all matters.


28

Biblical Prophecy

There are a lot of books on biblical prophecy. Most everyone has seen or owns these

kinds of materials. With prophecy you must be accurate and your prophecy must be sent

from God. In the Old Testament the false prophets were stoned to death. All you have to

do now is send out a revised copy admitting your error (or at least some would think).

I have been fasting and praying about what I am supposed to write. God has told

me that I only have a piece of the puzzle. He has also told me that I am to share this

information with you. You see, I do not have the whole puzzle. I do not have all the

answers, but I know who does. I also know if I will hold fast to him then I will be with him

forever. You see there is deception going on. But this deception is going to be revealed

soon. On must then decide where they stand. This deception is going to shake the church,

but it cannot prevail against the church. Many well be deceived and fall away.

If we love God we will obey what he commands. God said that he could open doors

that no man could open and shut doors that nobody could shut. I will be obedient to the

Lord. I am going to put my thoughts into words so all may read them. My son asked, “Why

are you writing this? Who are you writing for?” I am not immune to temptation or free

from sin. There is not one of this is free from sin. I did wrestle with my motives for my

writings. I had to ask myself what my purpose for this work is. Is it for some kind of

recognition? Spiritual warfare takes place in our mind. This is one of the battles Satan tries

to win. When we give into these thoughts they can lead to sin. That is why we are not to

entertain them. Even if nothing happens here my efforts will not have been in vain. I have

moved close to God in my walk, and I’m just obeying him by sharing my thoughts with

you.

There are many of us who have a fear that maybe the truth will somehow harm

them. People do not like change, much less to find out that things are not as they seem. If

what I am writing is true, and I do believe it is, there is going to be change. If you mess with

a rattlesnake it will get agitated and strike out. If you kick a bee hive you are going to get

stung. I believe things are going to be partially exposed and be seen quite soon. Once a leak

starts the damn is going to break. Exposure will cause a response from those deceiving us.

There is going to be a sharp line drawn between the church and the seed of Satan. A whole

lot of people need to decide where their allegiance is, in the kingdom of God or in the

world. Is there corruption in the world? Yes! The scriptures say you cannot love the world

and love the kingdom of God.


30

Born Again Christians

I would for a moment like to talk to those who are truly born again. Being born

again is a spiritual rebirth. It can be likened to a baby being born. When they first are born

they require a lot of nurturing and care. As they grow, they go from being bottle fed, to

spoon fed, to eating on their own. This should also be the development of a Christian. We

should not be sitting on the pew after ten years whining and crying because we are not

being fed. We should not still have to have a bottle and only take milk. We should be able

to eat meat. We should be spiritually growing up. Instead of wanting people to teach us

something, we should be teaching and discipling others. We go to worship services and it is

all about us. What is God going to do for me today? How is he going to bless me? It is

supposed to be about Him and not just about us. I am not saying we can never be blessed

or ask for anything? What I am saying is that this is not all about us. Whether God does

something for me or not I will still worship him. We like to sit on the pews and be blessed,

when in fact we should be a blessing for others. That is what a blessing is. It is not something

you receive and hang on to. It is something God gives you and you bless others with it. Paul

was blessed and had nothing, but was blessed beyond measure. His life was a blessing to

others. As Peter and John told the beggar, silver and gold have I none, but what I do have

I give to you. The man was blessed. Despite what you may see on TV you do not have to

receive financial gain to be blessed. You could even be blessed while being in financial ruin.

Your circumstances do not dictate your walk with God. When you get your eyes on your

circumstances you take your eyes off Jesus. When Peter took his eyes off of Jesus while

walking on the water, he started to sink.

Let your walk with Jesus be one of victory. Do not let your circumstances cloud your

vision of who you are in Christ. Know who you are in Christ. Have a made up mind. Don’t

compromise your walk. Stay in the boat. Stay firmly rooted and grounded in the word with

your feet planted solidly on the Rock. This may sound like a bunch of clichés, but the truth

none the less. As Peter said we have not followed some cleverly devised fairy tales. So

when the storms rage remember God has not given you the spirit of fear, but peace and joy

in the Holy Ghost. The world and even those a part of the kingdom of God live in fear. We

fear what Iran will do. We fear what North Korea will do. We fear what Al Qaeda will do.

We may have fears about what our own country is doing. We fear all nations and all

people and circumstances. This is not the will of God. We need to understand that there is

indeed secrecy, deception and conspiracy in the world. We must also realize that this is the

work of the satanic kingdom. If we fight this in the natural, we will fight a losing battle.

One needs to understand that God is in control. If you try to fight the carnal fight then that

is all you are going to have is a carnal battle. Screaming, hollering, accusations, and name


31

calling are typically the result of a carnal battle.

Some have been given a false gospel. They think when one is born again nothing

will ever come against them. Don’t except this message my friend. Remember not to fall

asleep. The world hated Jesus and it will also hate you. All you have to do is stay in the

boat. When Jesus puts you in the boat to go to the other side, stay with him in the boat.

The storms may rage, the waves may rise, but he is in the boat with you. You may think he

is sleeping, but he is still in control. There is no storm you can perish in as long as Jesus is in

the boat. Do you remember in the book of Acts where Paul was sailing to Rome? A storm

came up and the ship was caught up in it. Paul told them as long as you stay in the boat no

one will be lost. We must stay in the boat. If we get out of the boat we will perish. We can

walk away from God. But, God will never leave us nor forsake us.

Never has there been a time when I have stepped out in obedience to God that

something came against me. Satan does not want you to do things such as read and study

the bible or have a prayer life. Worship God in spirit and in truth. Satan is quite happy

when one has a lukewarm, fluffy, non committed Christian walk. The lukewarm Christians

do not threaten his kingdom. When you step out in faith and do what God commands you

to do, Satan then becomes concerned with you. , Be prepared to engage in a spiritual

battle. Friends and family may even forsake you. You could become like Job and have your

spouse tell you to just give it up. Or like David’s wife who made fun of him and his worship

to God.

Satan will not fight justly. He will use whatever means he can to discourage you. We

must remember that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. We battle against

principalities and powers in high places. Satan knows all of our weaknesses. He knows how

and when to come against us. His goal is to destroy the family, ruin your testimony, and get

you to conform to his ways.

Conclusion

Whoever is reading this, it is time to wake up! It is time for you to see for yourself

what is really going on around us. Who is really trying to control us? Who is stealing, killing

and destroying us? Satan's plan of attack is in full swing. Yet we cannot see or will not see.

We are not fully to blame, for we have been so indoctrinated by the satanic kingdom and

those being used in it that we have been duped and blinded to the truth. Some are even to

afraid to know the truth.

I was never really aware that there were so many secret societies that hide even

under the pretense of religion. What would God have to hide? It is only Satan's kingdom

that needs secrecy, deceit, untruth and deception. Unfortunately for Satan, his deception is

starting to crumble. Cracks of light are starting to infiltrate Satan’s kingdom. Satan's

kingdom cannot stand light. Satan's kingdom needs darkness and secrecy. Be prepared for a

full scale battle that will play out in the natural and in the spiritual. There are going to be

those who are going to be deceived by Satan. There is going to be a falling away. Keep the

faith my friends. Hang on to the truth and the word of God. Come to the Lord our savior

Jesus.

Up till now I have been sending a warning to the born again in Jesus. This is also a

warning to the lost. Satan is deceiving you. His demonic spirits are among you. You see the

fallen angles that created this disorder are confined in the abyss or the bottomless pit. The

spirit beings that they created are not. The cross breed of angel and man died. But only the

body died. The demonic spirit did not die. It is everywhere. This is who Jesus was casting

out of people. These demonic spirits still possess people. These people are being deceived.

They think they are in control. Satan lets them rule in the world. Some are very powerful

people. They have an advantage over us albeit a demonic and evil one. They have

accepted the temptations that Satan. The lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh, and the pride

of life. Satan through his demonic spirits is deceives these people. Satan or Lucifer has surely

not told them that the lake of fire is awaiting those who follow him. These people think

they are victorious. Satan has convinced his followers that he is the light bearer.

Remember that God is in control. I know I have said that before but I do not think

that many really know what that means. You see even though there is this secrecy and

deceit, God is well aware of it. Whether Satan knows it or not he cannot do anything unless

God lets him. God can stop this whenever he wants. You may ask, “Why does God tolerate

this?” Well all I can say is this is his plan. I surely do not have God's complete plan. But I do

know this, if you belong to him, and you are a born again believer, and you keep the

commandments of Jesus, then you will be saved and have eternal life and shall rule with

him forever. You see those who have sided with Satan have made their choice. They have


33

made the wrong one. No matter who you are you only have the choice of two masters and

two kingdoms. If you have not accepted Jesus as your Savior, Lord and master than Satan

still controls your life. There are not any other choices. You belong to one or the other. No

matter what Satan and his demons try to tell you, he is headed for the lake of fire with all

those who follow him. Satan has even convinced some in the church that there is no lake of

fire. His story is that God would not do that to you. Believe his lie if you want. You have a

choice as to where you end up, make the right choice.

To me it is very evident that Satan and his followers are setting up a world

organization. A Babylonian style of government with its own economy and religion. This is

the system that the beast will take control of. This is becoming clearer and clearer. As I said

the heads are going to be plucked up out of the sand. Unfortunately so many will see the

deception but still will be spiritually blind. Will be able to see in the natural but spiritually

will not let their eyes be opened to the true and living God. Everything to them is the

answer but God. God is the only answer. You see it is all so simple but yet hard to accept

that the true and living God is the only answer.

Good bless you my friend.
