Looking at Catholic Europe, and how Satan planted the seeds of sedition among its fields, and is now harvesting the expected crop. While the people were Faithful to God and His law, they were impenetrable, but when they forsook God’s ways, and turned to themselves for an answer to the question of Life, they opened the door to the enemy whom they willingly welcomed into their homes.

The enemy always disguises his true self from us, seeking to sneak past our guards, and infiltrate our camp. He often coaxes us into accepting him by false promises and empty words, and when we’ve taken hold of the apple, and have bitten into it, our eyes are opened to the true nature of things. But alas! Then, it is too late.

Society seems to be finally opening it’s eyes, at least partially. And those who are gifted with the ability to see and know what is going on in our world, are nearly powerless to do anything against the force which has arisen. The forces of Satan and his black legions, as they march from the foul pits of Angmar.

That is one opinion I suppose...

As a seer also, I see something quite different... and most religion has the notion of God all wrong ...

If one looks through the glasses of fear and guilt and anger and intolerance, what do you suppose they might see?

"Individual Faith" is Required for Salvation

The existence of God has been manifested in every person in their unregenerate (unsaved) state by the attributes of God, clearly seen in all of His creation, so that no one is without excuse, for rejecting the eternal Godhead.

Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown [it] to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible [attributes] are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify [Him] as God, nor were thankful, [NOR BY CHOICE RECOGNIZED HIS GOD-HEAD] but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man--and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

They use things as rationale and perspective as a way to recognize 1st their thoughts as just to not except or consider the truth of GODS words. So sad for them, HELL is not a fun place for ones soul for say sextillion
+ lifetimes of punishement and suffering.

Why do you think Satan is so active toward winning souls and God is so uncaring if he loses them?

Have you ever stopped to think about the fact that the Bible clearly states that God loses the vast majority of souls he creates.

The Biblical God is a major loser of souls by the Bible's own proclamation.

Even Jesus supposedly said according to belated hearsay gospel that the path is straight and the gate is narrow and few will make it into the Kingdom of God.

Well if you can believe Jesus (or the hearsay that is attributed to him), then Jesus himself is telling you that God is a loser.

He losts the vast majority of souls that he creates.

Satan is the clear victor in the souls race. According to the scriptures even Jesus confesses that this is the case.

After all, if only few make it to heaven then the rest must go to hell (unless you think something else happens to them).

Maybe they go to play bingo or something. laugh

"The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise" (Prov. 11:30).


It is ALL OF GOD. It is not wrong to tell others of your knowledge of God and His Word. It is not, however, your responsibility to "get people saved." Only God can do that.

It is GOD who does the calling:

"For ye see your calling brethren how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen [Who? ‘GOD’] the weak things of this world to confound the things which are mighty…" (I Cor. 1:26-27).

It is GOD who does the dragging:

"No man can come to me, except the Father which has sent Me, draw him [Gk: ‘drag him’]…" (John 6:44).


And all will respond to God’s judgments and chastisements:

"That at the name of Jesus EVERY knee should bow, of those in heaven, and those in earth, and those under the earth; And that EVERY tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father" (Phil. 2:10-11)

ITS ALL ABOUT GIVING GOD WORSHIP - HIS CREATION FOR HIS DESIRE - FOR HIS PEOPLE TO BE REWARDED WITH LIFE FOR ETERNITY, BY HIS FREE WILL, mans free will TO SERVE GOD.
B I N G O
OR BE IN HADES FOR EVER, out side the realm of GODS rewards and GODS glorious heaven.

This is actually very true, for most of the evil you will find is within the Church and the office of the Pope who disguises them self as righteous and hides behind gratuitous good deeds, while secretly amassing wealth and support for war, death and slavery.

Non-profit Corporations for health, promote disease and corporations for human rights abuse human rights. The best place to hide is in plain sight pretending to represent freedom when your deeds lead people like lambs to slaughter and into slavery.

The worst corruption will be found in the highest offices held. The generals, the presidents, the popes, the preachers, the politicians, the lawyers, and even the doctors who are glorified drug pushers and not healers.

I guess if you have absolutely zero religious tolerance, you're always going to be on a xenophobic war footing with those around you that you can't convert or conquer. Sometimes, people just want to be left alone to _not_ believe what can't be proven or adequately explained- they wouldn't set foot in your treehouse unless you use it to reign down intolerance upon them from it.

Evil is in man and influenced by evil in this world. To know good and evil and then to follow the later and expect zero consequences is ludicrous. 'Bury' ones consciousness in anything else, any idol or any relationship, or work or religion or guilt or arrogant self and be blind and come to know death after this life, death from heaven for eternity is the message. Salvage the soul from its self by excepting GODS GRACE AND GIFT OF CHRIST and his death and resurrection.

Life is still ALL about GOD, his will, his creation, the lives of people lived, our will exercised, bible truth, sin IN THE WORLD, repentance, savior, death, judgment, our life ENERGY for ALL eternity.

We are not hear for our purpose via creationism. How significant is life when it is merely an egg, a tadpole, to a fish, to a bear and then die of illness or predator or just age. Is this world merely just a bio-home in the universe to merely just recycle and recycle and recycle. WHERES THE HOPE wheres the grandness wheres the purpose?


Sure, who said their was to be purpose in life and order? And why should there not be purpose in all this order! We see order and we label it giving man a way to express his understanding, all for what reason? To inspire!...inspire to what? We just recycle,........... right?
How lame is that....
