Are you kidding??? Pope Francis: ‘Christians and Muslims are brothers and sisters’

Posted on by

The BBC is reporting a comment the pope made while touring Africa. Before we get to the article, here’s my rant on this subject:

Is this guy out of his mind? He’s obviously not an idiot, but a highly educated individual. So has he not read the Koran — the “Bible” of Muslims? This is what the Koran says (I have read it from cover to cover and know what it says):

  • Jesus/Yeshua is not the Son of God/Elohim, is not deity, but is only the human son of Mary.
  • Jesus/Yeshua didn’t die for our sins and resurrect again.
  • It’s acceptable to murder, steal from and terrorize all the Jews and Christians if they refuse to convert and submit to Islam.

Doesn’t the pope read the news and see what the true followers of Islam are doing to Christians all over the place? How can he call them our brothers? What’s going on here? What am I missing in all this?

Muslims are not the spiritual brothers of true Bible followers.

What’s more, they worship a false, pagan moon deity called Allah who is not the God of the Bible, but is another form of Baal or Satan.

So why is the pope along with most of the western heads of state in lockstep and vigorously pushing a multiculturalism agenda that puts the demon-inspired religion of Islam ahead of Christianity? What’s really going on here?

In the Book of Revelation, we see described an end times Mystery Babylonian New World Order. On one side you have what Revelation calls a beast, which is a political-economic alliance made up of the major world banksters and their crony-capitalist, oligarch corporate cronies who are in bed with various governments who protect their interests through the power of the state. On another side, you have a religious system called the great whore. This, I believe is the Roman Catholic Church with all of its harlot daughters in Christianity. The third leg of this three legged stool or triad appears to be Islam. This may very well be the false prophet/end times antichrist. No religion fits the biblical criteria for antichrist more than Islam does. I have written on this before. Sorry guys, but the Christian church doesn’t fit John’s criteria for antichrist that he lays out in his first and second epistles. It seems that we’re watching all three of these things — the RCC, the global monied elites and Islam — coming together into some sort of an unholy alliance. The problem is that each wants to dominate the world in its own right. But each, at the same time, is united in its hatred of the Bible and those who actually live by it. So their alliance will be a tenuous one. Revelation says that the beast will turn against the whore. Eventually, Yeshua will defeat the beast and false prophet systems at his second coming and toss them into the lake of fire. Continue reading →

The Sons of Thunder — There’s more to this nickname than you thought!

Posted on by

Mark 3:16–17, Surnamed Peter … sons of thunder. Yeshua chose twelve apostles, but the first three of the twelve that he chose were unique. This trio—Peter, James and John—formed the innermost circle of Yeshua’s associates, and ten times the Scriptures record their names together, as a group. Beyond that, Yeshua spoke prophetically over each one which, we can now see in retrospect, pertained to the calling he was giving them to canonize what would later become known as the New Testament. Let’s now examine the scriptural evidence for this assertion.

James and John — the Sons of Thunder

James and John — the Sons of Thunder

To Simon, Yeshua gave the nickname Peter, which means “a stone” (Gr. petros meaning “stone” as opposed to petra meaning “rock, cliff, ledge, large stone.” See Matthew 16:18 where juxtaposes these two words — the former he attributes to Peter, the latter to himself.

To James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, he gave the nickname Sons of Thunder (Aram. Boanerges). Did you ever wonder why he dubbed only these three disciples with sobriquets and not the others? Was Yeshua just having fun and playing games, or was he declaring over them, in these nicknames, what their prophetic mission was to be years later? “These are the original apostles who were given distinctive titles by [the Messiah] in order to convey some special assignments that they were expected to complete.

The Descendants of Esau Are Ephraim and Judah’s Arch-Enemy in the End Times

I’ve posted this study before, but I’m doing so again, since the information contained therein is more relevant than every before. We are watching biblical prophecy being fulfilled like never before, and the roots of current events are to be found in the pages of the Bible.

Understanding history is the key to understanding present and future events! 

Edom has been a perpetual enemy of Israel (currently, the Jews and Christians) from very early times. Esau (Edom) hated Jacob and wanted to kill him. The Amalakites who attacked Israel when they were coming out of Egypt were Edomites. Likely Balaam was an Edomite. Haman was an Edomite as was King Herod. I’ve probably forgotten a few along the way. Jumping forward, we have Hamas, the Palestinian Authority, Islamic State, Hezbollah, Al-Kaida, and Islam et al in general displaying Edomite characteristics. Edom is on the rise in traditional Christian nations including America, and they have made it clear that they want to take over and dominate those nations. They’re currently attempting to do so through terrorist intimidation and immigration invasion and population proliferation. 

Let’s face it. We have Edom in the White House! He supports Edomite/Islamic causes and kowtows to Islam at every turn to the detriment of Christians and this nation’s traditional allies. 

So take a look at this study and discover for yourself how relevant ancient biblical history really is to us today. The wheel keeps turning. There is nothing new under the sun. Cycles keep repeating themselves. If you understand these cycles, you’ll have a better grasp of current and future event.

A Study of Genesis 35

The Ancestry of Modern Arabs

Esau and his army stood in the way preventing Jacob from returning to his homeland. This event is prophetic of what will happen in the end times.

We have already identified who the sons of Jacob are, how they were divided into two camps, or two houses, and two kingdoms (the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Israel). But who are the descendants of Esau?

Many, if not most of the modern Moslems (especially the Arabs) trace their lineage back if not biologically then spiritually to Ishmael, the son of Abraham by Hagar. Islam in its holy book, the Koran, claims that it was Abraham and Ishmael who founded the religion of Continue reading →

Spiritual Boot Camp: Entering the Ministry Means Preparing for War

Mark 1–3

It is interesting to note the order of events as Yeshua was launching his ministry. He was about to enter a war zone! After John baptized Yeshua and he received his heavenly empowerment (Mark 1:9–11), he first went through a spiritual boot camp before stepping onto the battlefield of public ministry. Once in the “war,” it’s worth noting where Continue reading →
