“And now you know what is restraining, that he [the Antichrist] may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. [2 Thess 2:6-7 NKJV].
You might have noticed that over the last few years, things are slowly changing around us. We are vaguely aware of a force or forces, which our countries governments seem to acknowledge, which are slowly changing our daily lives. There always has been a slow change going on as new inventions take their part in the scheme of things. However there is a subtle influence that seems to be taking over the whole world. Years ago we used to hear of the Illuminati, but more recently we have become aware of other organisations and clubs; The Round Table, the Bilderbergers organisation and believe it or not, the Federal Reserve of the USA, which is not a government organization but a private one, which includes most of the large financial institutions. The Illuminati was formed by Adam Weishaupt. In 1771 he had come into contact with Manichaeism, an occult philosophy of the East which contained several “Mysteries” and he sought a way of using this knowledge in a secret society. He found that in both Germany and France there were secret societies which based themselves on the same concepts. They had an agenda and their goals were basically as follows: [1] Abolition of monarchy and all ordered government, [2] Abolition of private property, [3] Abolition of inheritance, [4] Abolition of Patriotism, [5] Abolition of the family, [6] Abolition of religion, and the replacement of the worship of God by the worship of reason and rationalism. The Illuminati’s outlook was to remain secret, and never reveal its true name or nature. From this organisation came the French Revolution, and the Communist League. Karl Marx was a member and formed this front Communist organisation. Karl Marx was not only a communist but a Satanist worshiping the Devil through the occult. During the Russian revolution some terrible things were done in the name of freedom, which, far from freeing the nation was to plunge it into a time of persecution and distress.
We mentioned the Bilderbergers society last month, and the self-admission that they had originated the common market in Europe. Since then the Illuminati and the Bilderbergers seem to have joined mysteriously and we have what we have today, a world fast forgetting God, and all His laws regarding the sanctity of marriage, the blurring of both sexes and marriage, God’s Creation, and managing to influence Church leaders in following the world instead of God’s word the Bible.
How are these influences affecting us: One way is by creating civil war. We can see men divided against each other with so much violence and rebellion in the streets that governments will have to bring in surveillance? This will mean the knowledge by authorities of everyone’s movements and details, just right for when the Antichrist rules and wishes to restrict everyone’s lives. [Rev 13:11-17]. The movement towards a cashless society, which will govern where and on what we spend our money. Have you ever worked out what would happen if all your business went through a bank, and if you did not do as you are told, you would have your account taken away from you? No food, no clothes in fact “nothing”. So it will be during the Tribulation period under the Anti-Christ or Beast, if you fail to have his mark on your hand or forehead. You will not have your head very long. [Rev 7:9-17].
The influence being spread throughout the world is very much working through the children. The teaching of evolution is being taught as fact in our schools. Creation is not mentioned leaving many youngsters confused on what they are taught in church, compared with what they are taught in school. Evolution in reality does not work, but scientists totally ignore the facts. The genetic system of the world, does not allow genes to become something else, the passing on of one life to another can sometimes loose a gene and so there’s an error, but in no way will those genes create something completely different. How scientists working from experimental fact can believe in evolution, I cannot understand? Perhaps they are frightened of believing in a Creator God? Who asks for obedience?
The efforts by those in authority to break up the institution of marriage, one man and one woman, and its sanctity and permanence, is causing the very thing that welfare workers are seeking to solve, single parents and unwed mothers, confused children, and those with no solid home on which to build their young lives. The Police can tell you about them. Does not all this ring a bell or two, where the illuminati wished to dismantle marriage and destroy homes. We have even a situation today where Christians are living together unwed and going nowhere in their lives. Too late they will realise the life they have lost, and the fellowship with Jesus they no longer have. Read about the Church in Laodicea and you will see the similarity to the way things are today and to what is happening to many Christian’s and their churches today. [Rev 3:16-22]
As you are reading this, please take note that the Devil as a roaring lion seeks to have you if he can [1 Pet 5:8]. Beware dear friend, for as the Devil knows his end is becoming closer, he has little time, and he is working hard to get the Church, Christian marriage, and all that is sacred out of the world before he raises up the Beast to do his bidding, and finish carrying out what is already beginning to take place.
