No Neutrality on This, the Day after 9/11
September 12, 2011
The cross is the crossroads of history; there is no neutrality at the cross. Because of this fact, in order to have unity of religion, the cross must be removed from the one religion, which uses it symbolically, called Christianity.
It has become a simple matter for the religious institutions to remove the cross from their altars and their steeples. One religious modern priest, Rick Warren, is at the helm of the move, calling for a purpose-driven church, with its purpose being religious unity without the cross. Those who partake are the religious institutions, which are driven by the desire for unity of religion in the attempt to seek neutrality among belief systems.
Neutralizing the cross is not even a possibility. The Antichrist, who is against the Christ and the cross, is the spirit behind the move. Make no mistake! There is no resemblance whatsoever between the church of Jesus Christ, the apostolic church, and the eunuch known as the purpose-driven church of Christianity.
The cross brings not only Israel and America, but also all the nations of the world, to the point of decision. Every man, woman and child will meet there at its foot one day to look up, upon the face of Jesus, only to discover who it is, with whom he/she has chosen to spend an eternity – either with Satan or with Jesus. No one can escape making the decision by claiming neutrality. The way of the crossroads to the right leads to the kingdom, while the broad road to the left leads to the pit of hell.
All roads lead to the crossroads in the journey of man through the wilderness of the world. Only the secular priesthood without understanding believes it is possible to put up a sign saying ‘detour’, and then offer a neutral road in the attempt to avoid it. Only a Christian priesthood, with the mark of the Antichrist upon it, the mark of the beast, which is intended for liars, would dare to believe that it can neuter God’s people. Woe to it, for it would be better that such a priesthood had never been born!
Liberalism is the result of lies, which are used by Satan to separate man from God. The first big lie of Satan was that which declared God does not mean what He says and, hence, His Word is not truth – the basis for getting rid of the Bible today. Secondly, the next big lie is about himself, by which he states that he really does not exist – his is just the illusion of lies. And so the devil nicely produces the counterfeit to the truth and, for some reason, which is completely incomprehensible to me, man will believe the lie but he will not believe the truth.
Jesus, the Christ, says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me (John 14:6).” Satan, the Antichrist, says, “That is not true, there are many ways to God, all unified in going to the same place but by different ways.” And thus a multitude of religions were birthed out of the first lie of religion, believed by Eve and embraced by Adam who carried within him the seed of the fruit God intended for Himself to be good fruit, and never intended for bearing sons for Satan. Jesus identified these sons as the Pharisees and religious priesthood of His day, when He told them their father was the devil (see John 8:44).
And thus, a multitude of religions are at the heart of the nations, symbolized by the unity of religions (U.R.) of the United Nations, bringing together the religious/states in which America and Israel have no place, that is to say, the true Israel of God. However, the Israel we know today is a creation of the United Nations, so it is a religious creation, not a creation of God with a foundation of truth.
America is quickly falling away, just like Israel fell into religion, and no longer is standing on the truth of her Constitutions. The Law of God has given way in Canada to a charter of the right of anyone to impose one’s religion in place of the truth upon an entire nation, the foundation of which, in reality, was built on the truth of God.
Rights give the religious belief system of the secular academics more validity than the Bible by stating that every man has his own truth within – you know, that old, yet new age message about having the power within to be like God, by knowing both good and evil. The outcome of such thinking is that man, not God, can become the determiner of man’s own moral code. Of course, God has warned man that to buy into such trash from the pit of hell will mean ‘lights out’ for him. The light will go out, not only in him, but also within the nation, which chooses, by listening to secular lies, to go into darkness, the only place of real neutrality and the nothingness that comes with neutering.
God made each one of us something – an individual in His own image, who was taken from the darkness of dust by the breath of the Spirit of Life, given by God and from a place of neutrality, to a place where there are two opposing spirits at work, which have been from the beginning. For the serpent was found in the Garden of creation.
From that moment on, there no longer could be neutrality. The decision was there to be made between God and the devil, between truth and the lie, between life and death. Man failed the test through lack of faith, and disbelief in the Word of God, which led him to believe the lie that comes with a lure, much like that used to catch fish. It glitters, is shiny and appealing to the eye of the fish, but, oh, the sadness for the fish when he goes after the lure!
So, God removed man from the Garden to place him on the east side of it in the camp of religion. He then closed off the Garden on the east side, preventing him from having access to the tree of life. In His mercy, He conceived a plan for man to be allowed a way back to the good fruit-producing tree, and in His love for man would offer him a way to remove his death sentence, which came with his rebellion in faithlessness and disobedience. God, Himself, would become man, and take his death penalty for him by giving up His glory in heaven, but not His holiness.
As a man born into the line of Adam, Noah, Abraham and David, He would take that death penalty for all men on His shoulders, piled up all the way back to Adam, where the river waters went out to water the Garden and then parted. However, God did not take this burden upon Himself, giving man a second chance, without requiring a proper response of gratitude for such an incredible gift. The human race would either accept this gift with love for the One who saved it, or it would die as toast in a fire of destruction, such as that which will be seen when the three towers of man fall to the ground – the towers of religion, economics and government, built by the sons of Satan.
At the cross, Jesus had victory over Satan, and He is about to return and claim His kingdom. Man has the choice to accept or reject Him, just as Jesus will accept or reject whom He chooses in the final analyses. He and He alone, is the way, the truth, and the life. The lies of religion from the devil would have men believe that they can still build Babel-like-towers for themselves today, but unfortunately for them, they will reach into the heavens, so high that they find themselves right on the path of destruction where man-made planes fly.
The question is, “Where do we want to be on that fateful day when the judgment comes and we all find ourselves either at the foot of the cross or up in the towers of man and on the pathway of destruction?” There is no neutrality; you will be one place or the other at the time when the trumpet is blown and atonement will either be made for you or you will have to find your own way out of those towers, which lead to death, and make your own atonement for sin on your own cross. Are you perfect enough to be like Jesus, so that you, like He, will arise from the grave?
