Church leaders often made mistakes
History shows that church leaders have often got it wrong.
In the past, church leaders caused much harm by defending slavery, instigating the murderous crusades, and executing those who disagreed with them.
Certain church leaders today still preach dangerous beliefs by opposing the Covid-19 vaccine. They merely spread their ignorant conceit. Self-elevated to be the human leader of the church they preach against the topic of vaccinations for which they have no medical competence. The word "pastor" is only mentioned once in the New Testament and condemned six times in the Old Testament. Pastors can obviously not be expected to be a source of Bible truth as no New Testament Scripture states that a pastor is the head of a church. Pastors have thus unscripturally hijacked the leadership of the church and then run it in a dictatorial manner by ejecting those who oppose them. They use their power to maintain their power, and their money. Remember Judas.
COVID-19, by the end of 2021 had killed 5 million people and over 1000 Americans were dying every day from it. The economic havoc that this virus caused has been incredible. Churches prayed against the virus but it was in vain. Instead of the prayers of the churches destroying the virus, the virus closed down the churches in 2020.
2020 can be called perfect vision. So, in 2020 we could see clearly what God thought of all our churches, that they were only fit to be closed down. The pastors had no idea how the pandemic was fitting into God's big Plan.
2020 was a grim year. The virus caused untold health and economic damage worldwide. The only real protection was lockdowns. People stayed at home but many could not work and bankruptcy followed. Hospitals and medical staff were stretched to exhaustion and many gallant medical personnel died from their exposure to the virus.
During their defeat by the virus, the church leaders huddled helpless but safely at home, leaving the brunt of the battle to the brave and dedicated medical personnel and their brilliant vaccine developers. Then, when things were a little safer, many church leaders emerged to attack the only defense which we have against the virus, which is the vaccine. This reduced church religion to a complete farce. They falsely accused the vaccine of attacking our auto-immune systems that protect us.
By the end of 2021 over 10 billion vaccines had been given to half the world's population. There has been no sign of horrible immune breakdowns. There has been a big decrease in the death rate in vaccinated areas. Very few vaccinated people end up in hospital intensive care if they contract the virus.
Conspiracy theorists introduced political propaganda about government dictatorship and big business greed and thereby fooled church leaders into attacking the vaccine which is our only protection, since the churches had miserably failed to protect us in 2020.
To control the virus, the governments had to get dictatorial by either imposing lockdowns or forcing people to get vaccinated. If the government did nothing, the virus just ran rampant causing economic and health disasters.
Opposing government dictatorship is understandable. But attacking the vaccine as an evil product that will produce incredible health disasters is totally false. Opposing the government's efforts to protect the nation's health is foolish.
Christians have been fooled into attacking anything the governments do. As if God intended Christianity to attack governments over health issues.
The New Testament churches never became active in political issues.
So, certain church leaders in their politically-influenced foolishness attacked all vaccines by claiming that vaccines attack our personal immune protection systems. When the blind lead the blind then they both fall into the ditch. During 2021 far too many church pastors, and God alone knows how many of their deluded followers, paid the final price for their medical ignorance and fake anti-virus vaccine views. COVID-19 killed many Christians who could and should have been vaccinated. The church began to pay the price for being fooled.
These church leaders are mistakenly being fooled into attacking vaccines, despite vaccines being the only way to eliminate a virus. Smallpox, rabies, polio, and hepatitis A are just some of the deadly killers that have been kept in check and eliminated by vaccines. Vaccines are our only human protection against some viruses.
Now, suddenly, church leaders are fooled into joining the political controversy concerning the nation’s health. Some companies make big money out of the vaccines, but that does not make the vaccine bad. Henry Ford made big money out of motor cars and so does Elon Musk. But that does not stop us from buying motor cars. Nor does that make motor cars bad.
Canadian truck drivers blocked the main bridge between the city of Windsor in Ontario and the American city of Detroit for six days. The main trade over that bridge is Canadian car-parts going to the American city of Detroit. These car-part businesses lost close to a billion dollars. The truck drivers made it an anti-vaccine issue. Truck drivers were not allowed to drive to America unless vaccinated. But it soon blew up into a government overreach issue. They objected to the government telling them what to do. They wanted to have their freedom to do as they wished.
Notice the grim irony. Truck drivers objected to government dictatorship that forces them to be vaccinated if they want to drive to America to deliver car parts and other business. They then imposed a cruel dictatorship over the car-parts manufacturers by imposing a lockdown when they blocked the bridge and took away from car-parts businessmen their freedom to do business.
The people who oppose dictatorship are even more dictatorial themselves if they get a chance to remove freedoms from others. So, be careful who you listen to when you slide down the slippery slope of political activism.
These "freedom" fighters who acted like cruel dictators to wreck businesses also placed their children as a barrier or shield between themselves and the police. They duplicated the tactics of terrorists in this so-called freedom protest.
The spirit behind the anti-vaxxers is a very intolerant and dictatorial spirit.
The first vaccine was invented in 1796
The first successful vaccine was invented by Edward Jenner in 1796 to cure the terrible disease of smallpox that had killed tens of millions over the centuries.
During the 1700s about 400 thousand people in Europe died every year from smallpox and one-third of the survivors went blind. Smallpox also caused awful disfiguring scars. That vaccine, obtained from cows, was opposed by many people, including some wealthy London doctors and some press reports, who feared that it would cause unknown but terrible effects on people. Those anti-vaxxers claimed that the vaccine involved injecting a poison called cowpox into their bodies which would “obviously” do great harm to people in future years. Thus they spoke in their ignorance. Fortunately, Jenner did not listen to them. Cowpox taught the human body how to make the antibodies that destroyed the smallpox virus.
The anti-vaxxers claimed rather foolishly that their uncertain fear of future possible bad effects of the vaccination was worse than the present terrible damage and deaths that the smallpox was actually causing in 1796. Jenner did not spend years testing his vaccine. It worked straight away because the science that he was using was good. If you use good science, you can get an immediate good result. Neil Armstrong was the first man to land on the moon. A moon landing had never been tested before. Good science brought him safely home.
The Latin word "vacca" means a cow. That is where the word vaccine comes from.
In the 1800s and 1900s as the years went by, the anti-vaxxer's claims were shown to be wrong and the terrible smallpox virus was eliminated by the vaccine. The proof is that we all live longer now that smallpox no longer exists. The anti-vaxxers forgot that medicine is a gift from God. As is surgery and anesthetics.
Today, anti-vaxxer's claim the same thing. They fear future terrible changes to our immune systems. This has not happened but in the real world vaccinated people get less sick and die less often than the unvaccinated.
Anti-vaxxers foolishly claim that uncertain future terrible auto-immune deaths, that may or may not happen, are a worse fate than dying now in a terrible way by being unable to breathe.
In the first two years of the vaccine from its trials to its worldwide rollout, the death rate and the number of people in intensive care have dropped amazingly. These facts show that the anti-vaxxers have got it wrong. As more time rolls by, the incorrectness of their claims will become more evident.
The vaccine cannot depopulate the world
The vaccine was claimed to be a depopulation conspiracy. But the death rate amongst the vaccinated, caused by COVID-19, is 50 times less than the death rate caused by COVID-19 amongst the unvaccinated.
Anti-vaxxers claim the vaccine was invented too quickly to be trustworthy. But some researchers had done 40 years of research on this. The invaluable information was immediately made available to vaccine developers when the virus pandemic started. Vaccine development did not start from zero, since it began with the 40 years of research experience from this remarkable lady.
A vaccine is not an issue that contradicts the Bible because you have had many vaccines since your birth. Otherwise, you would not have grown to old age. The average lifespan in the Dark Ages was about 35 years if you survived childhood. Vaccines changed that. Today, on average, people can expect to live to about 75.
Thus, vaccines have been a tremendous boost to human health and should be appreciated as a gift from God.
Gifts that cause healing come from God
I CORINTHIANS 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
God gives supernatural help to individuals so that they are able to be of benefit to everyone.
I CORINTHIANS 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
First, the Holy Spirit gives wisdom to a person to enable that person to understand the meaning of the Bible patterns so that various Scriptures can be connected together to reveal a deeper truth such as the seven church ages or an understanding of original sin. Saying that Adam and Eve were disobedient is not an explanation, it is simply an admission that the person has no clue about what happened in Eden. Ignorant church-goers know that God required the shed blood of an innocent animal to atone for sin but they do not know why God made this requirement.
Then the Spirit of God gives us the knowledge to understand Bible verses and symbols so that we can know what we are talking about. What is the little horn in Daniel that grew among 10 horns on the Roman monster-beast but also came forth from one of the four horns on the Greek goat?
Why did Jesus tell Mary not to touch Him in John’s Gospel but allowed her to hold His feet in Matthew’s Gospel?
I CORINTHIANS 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
Wisdom and knowledge are followed by faith which has to be built on God’s Word.
We can only build our faith on the Scriptures that we can understand.
ROMANS 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Only the Holy Spirit can give us the guidance that we need to understand the Bible and the Will of God so that we can find direction in these confusing and complex end times. Understanding the symbols of Scripture enables us to identify the enemy because only then we can avoid being deceived.
Remember how many mistakes Peter made at the end of Christ’s First Coming. It is easy for anyone to get confused.
JOHN 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:
Notice where Paul puts the emphasis on how the Holy Spirit manifests Himself to us humans.
Paul first mentions the importance of accurate Bible information before he writes of the spectacular supernatural miracles.
This warns us that if we do not know what we are speaking about from Scripture, then we will end up being deceived.
The supernatural means very little if our Bible beliefs are wrong.
MATTHEW 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Iniquity is knowing that what we do is wrong.
When we attack the medical world for very cleverly inventing a protection from a deadly virus, that closed down the churches, then we know that we are very wrong.
If God wants to bring the virus under control and our only successful anti-virus defense is vaccination, then when preachers condemn the vaccine, God will remove the preachers.
If you oppose what God wants to do, then do not be surprised when God removes you.
God wanted the Jews to fight the giants for the Promised Land.
Moses sent out 12 Jewish leaders as spies to gather intelligence before the invasion.
Ten of the Jewish leaders got it wrong and contradicted God's Plan. So God killed them.
God was not interested in the opinions of those leaders who criticized the Promised Land.
NUMBERS 14:36 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,
People always seem to be unhappy with God's Plan. The leaders who incited them to oppose God's Plan perished.
NUMBERS 14:37 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
God allowed the vaccine to be invented to control the virus.
Those who are anti the vaccine are thus on dangerous territory.
Wisdom answers the question, Why?
Knowledge answers the question, What?
Wisdom and knowledge of Scripture will build up our faith so that we can find God’s Will for our present day.
Surprisingly, once we know what is going on, then the most important manifestation of God's Spirit is the GIFTS of healing. Plural.
God knows that sickness causes much suffering and God has many different types of cures for sickness.
Healing comes in many ways. Prayer. Doctors. Medicine. Injections. X-rays. Scans. Transplants. Artificial body parts. Vitamins. Vaccines. Surgery and anesthetics. Herbal remedies. Nursing and rehabilitation.
Many medicines contain poison. Snake venom can be found in high blood pressure medication.
Anesthetics are also poisonous and have to be carefully handled by experts. But anesthetics is one of the greatest blessings that we have today. Imagine an operation or drilling a tooth without one.
So, God even uses poisons to help our health. We must be careful before we criticize and condemn what medical science has discovered.
Gifts of healing are mentioned before the impressive supernatural manifestations of miracles, prophecies, and discernment.
To oppose any form of healing is then simply opposing a gift that God has given to help suffering mankind.
False claims oppose the vaccine
President Putin of Russia has a large army of propagandists who spread anti-vaccine disinformation throughout America and all over the world, to stir up strife. The West has many gullible conspiracy theorists who are easily fooled. Evangelicals who are fooled by political conspiracy theories then become part of the foolish or fooled virgins (representing saved church people who took their eyes off the Bible to focus on politics and human leaders).
Doctors, especially when they are paid, can be just as easily fooled by conspiracy theories as anybody else.
"Some people are going to die from the vaccine directly," Dr. Sherri Tenpenny said in a video, which has nearly 1 million views. "But a large number of people are going to start getting horribly sick and get all kinds of autoimmune diseases, 42 days to maybe a year out."
The COVID-19 vaccine was available for the year 2021 and Tenpenny’s prediction was proven wrong as multi-million deaths from destroyed auto-immune systems never happened in 2021, nor thereafter.
Many anti-vaxxers are hoping that vaccinated people will die in order to prove their theories. Hoping for the death of a person is a grave mistake.
The anti-virus vaccine has been called a "depopulation conspiracy" to kill billions as the vaccines were claimed by some to be a poison that is able to halve the population of the world in 5 years. That would mean killing 4 billion people in 5 years with a death rate of 15 million per week. Impossible.
The world population increases by about 85 million per year which is 1,600,000 per week.
To depopulate the earth would require killing more than 85 million people each year.
This would require the deaths of an extra 2 million people each week.
In the first two years of the pandemic, the 6 million virus deaths averaged 60,000 deaths per week.
60 thousand deaths in a week cannot depopulate the world when almost one-and-a-half million babies are born each week.
The COVID-19 virus cannot depopulate the earth as it kills less than one tenth of a percent of the increase in the world’s population. The world’s population of 7.7 billion in 2019 grew to 7.8 billion in 2020 during the worst of the pandemic.
Thus, COVID-19 never was a depopulation bomb.
But, so far, the vaccines have noticeably decreased the death rate due to COVID-19 in the vaccinated regions.
After two years of battling the virus, COVID-19 deaths today are mainly occurring amongst unvaccinated people.
The vaccine cannot be 666
Many evangelical Christians have also called the vaccine “the mark of the Beast”. This is a dangerous mistake as they thereby distort the Scriptures.
But they have never been able to explain how an injection in the shoulder becomes the mark in the forehead or in their right hand.
REVELATION 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Nor have they explained what “the image of the beast” is that has to be worshipped in order to avoid being killed.
REVELATION 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Nor do they explain who the man is who has the number 666.
REVELATION 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
A score is 20.
Many anti-vaxxers accused Bill Gates of being this man.
Gates has given $25 billion (more than all the other charities combined) to effectively eradicate polio and malaria in large parts of Asia and Africa.
Bill Gates has probably caused more children to survive from childhood to adulthood than any other person, thanks to his sponsoring of vaccines. Thus, to claim that Gates wants to depopulate the earth is ludicrous.
That accusation alone makes the anti-vaxxers guilty of turning a medical hero into a villain. These modern-day Christians are thus false accusers and need to be ashamed of themselves for being so gullible and making such a monstrous accusation against the good works and financial generosity of Bill Gates.
No one man is in charge of the vaccines as there are four different types of vaccines that have been developed using different approaches. Vaccines can use a dead virus, or a weakened virus, or a part of a virus. A vaccine can also use the virus of a common cold to deliver the necessary instructions to a cell.
Around 20 different vaccines are in use and more are being invented.
It is impossible for one man to have control over all these vaccines.
TV and radio hosts oppose vaccinations and die
Some TV and radio hosts were anti-vaxxers who opposed vaccination but then sadly died of COVID-19 in 2021.
Their anti-vaccine information was misleading and they paid a tragic price.
They unwisely entered into extremist political propaganda. Extremists delight in lighting fires to fuel their extremism. But when you light fires, it is easy to burn yourself.
Thus, we have religious leaders propagating beliefs that are both harmful and deadly.
At least two of the five American radio hosts who died had a change of heart as they became seriously ill. These two were Dick Farrel and Phil Valentine.
This is the tragedy of being deceived. Waking up when it is too late.
Radio host Phil Valentine who at the end, when he knew he was dying, also regretted not being vaccinated.
Being fooled into throwing your life away in order to oppose an injection does seem incredibly foolish.
Bob Enyart, pastor of Denver Bible church, falsely claimed that Pfizer uses aborted fetal cells and called Pfizer “child killers”.
This is the next stage of extremism. Spreading false accusations that the gullible people will believe. This means that the conspiracy theory is based on lies.
The Pfizer vaccine tells human cells how to make a spike protein that is the same as a COVID-19 spike protein. The cell then kills this newly-made spike protein (which cannot then harm the person) but remembers how to make the antibodies that killed the spike protein. If infected with Covid-19, the person can quickly make the necessary antibodies to kill the COVID-19 virus spike proteins. This stops most people from getting sick. Should a person get sick, the ability of the cell to remember and make the antibodies quickly, stops the person from getting very sick. That is why hospital intensive care wards are mainly occupied by unvaccinated people as it takes time for their bodies to learn how to make antibodies. While their body is trying to learn, the virus gets a much stronger hold in their bodies and they get much sicker.
Pfizer used cells cultured from a 1972 abortion in the Netherlands (called a cell line) to see if this cell line could take up the genetic instructions to build a spike protein, from their vaccine.
But human embryonic cell lines were not used to make Pfizer’s final vaccine. They were used to test the vaccine. Bob Enyart did not mention this fact.
Bob Enyart also never mentioned nor objected to the fact that two aborted foetuses from Sweden in 1962 and the UK in 1966, respectively, have historically been used to develop weakened or inactivated virus-based vaccines against chickenpox, shingles, rubella, hepatitis A, polio, and rabies. These vaccines have saved multi-millions of people from much suffering. Especially the awful damage that polio and rabies did to humans.
Marc Bernier who called himself “Mr. Anti-Vax” on his radio show from Daytona Beach, battled the virus for weeks before he died in August 2021.
Veronica Wolski, an anti-vaccine activist and QAnon advocate who demanded to be treated with the deworming drug ivermectin, died from complications due to COVID-19 in a Chicago hospital, Forbes reported.
Ivermectin has never been accepted by the World Health Organization as an effective anti-COVID-19 treatment.
H Scott Apley, a member of the State Republican Executive Committee and city councilman in Dickinson, Texas, who frequently posted anti-mask and anti-vaccine sentiments on his social media, died from Covid-19 complications in early August 2021.
A Colorado sheriff’s deputy named Daniel Trujillo was killed by the virus shortly after reportedly posting several anti-vaccination opinions on his social media.
Claims that the vaccine makes women sterile is politics
Jimmy DeYoung Senior, a religious broadcaster from Tennessee, called the vaccine an attempt to make women sterile. He later regretted his political involvement on the issue and his conspiracy theory ideas before he died.
He asked if the virus and the vaccines were a form of governmental control.
This took the issue of vaccines out of the medical realm and into the political arena. That was a huge mistake.
Preachers in the New Testament never got involved in politics.
A fatal mistake of modern-day evangelicals is to get involved with politics.
This happens because of their fatal obsession with social media conspiracy theories.
In the Dark Ages, the Roman Catholic church combined politics and religion into a disastrous dance of death.
Stephen Harmon, a member of the Hillsong megachurch, had been a vocal opponent of vaccines, making a series of jokes about not having the vaccine. He died after a month-long battle with the virus in 2021. Despite his struggle with the virus, Mr. Harmon still said he would reject being jabbed, saying his religious faith would protect him.
Virginia Bishop Gerald O. Glenn died of the COVID-19 virus after holding services when public meetings had been banned.
“I firmly believe that God is larger than this dreaded virus,” Glenn said during a March 22 service. Yet it killed him.
Marcus Lamb, CEO of Daystar which is perhaps the biggest Christian TV broadcaster reaching 2 billion viewers, claimed that the vaccine kills your immune system. He was treated with ivermectin, an animal medicine, but died. He falsely claimed that people were dying or having neurological disorders from the vaccine.
Under his leadership, Daystar aired repeated baseless anti-vaccine conspiracy theories and claims that vaccines were being used to take freedoms away from Christians.
In July 2020, the network spent an hour of air time complaining about “censorship” around the pandemic and also gave an hour’s slot to Robert F Kennedy Jr, who has spread misinformation about the Covid-19 vaccine.
In an example of the stance embraced by Lamb, Daystar said in a court filing that a vaccine mandate was a “sin against God’s Holy Word.”
No Scriptures were quoted to try to prove this wrong interpretation of the Bible.
This unfortunate statement condemns vaccination which is one of our greatest medical scientific discoveries. Nowhere does the Bible condemn medical help. The apostle Paul traveled with Luke who was a doctor.
Influential evangelical leaders like Marcus Lamb obviously misinterpret parts of the written Word of God. They certainly have no competence to oppose medical research.
Caught up in the controversial political issue of vaccination, they wrongly claim that the Bible supports their political-religious opinion. They ignore the Bible injunction to obey their political leaders.
ROMANS 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
ROMANS 13:7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
Marcus Lamb was involved in a controversy in 2020.
In 2020, he got a loan from the United States government Paycheck Protection Program in order to pay his employees. The loan was taken by Lamb’s organization, Daystar, and they got around $3.9 million for the purpose. Soon after the organization received the funds, a 14 seat Gulfstream V aircraft was purchased for the church. The aircraft was worth $8-10Million. The loan was eventually paid back to Daystar, but this dragged him into the controversy. It was found out that the aircraft was used for Lamb’s personal travel on multiple occasions.
Irvin Baxter who was a TV evangelist died of COVID-19.
Claiming a strong Bible faith does not guarantee safety as many preachers professing to have faith have died of the virus.
But the vaccination has helped many, who have little or no faith, to avoid a COVID-19 death.
Vaccines are a gift of healing from God, and should not be spurned.
On August 17, Roger Dale Moon, pastor of Revelation Fire Ministries in South Carolina, wrote that he did not fear COVID-19 since "the blood of Jesus that covers me stops every kind of disease or virus that tries to enter my spirit, soul, and body". He died on October 19, shortly after contracting COVID-19.
Tim Parsons, pastor of Center Point Church in Lexington, Kentucky, died on August 26 from COVID-19 after his church had advised members "not to worry" about the virus since God was "in control."
These Christians did not understand the Will of God for today and allowed themselves to become deceived.
A pastor is not the head of the church
God wants to bring the virus under control by means of vaccinations as happened with smallpox and polio and other dread diseases. Many church pastors vilified Dr. Anthony Fauci who is a virus expert. That degrades the status of the church in the eyes of outsiders. Those same pastors mocked those who wore masks, and dismissed the danger of the virus that eventually killed them.
Deceased church pastors include Dean Kohn of Descending Dove Outreach International in California, Robert Marson of Umpqua Valley Community Fellowship in Oregon, and Rob Skiba of Virtual House Church, a Texas-based online community.
They forgot that nowhere in the New Testament was a pastor ever put in charge of a church.
Nowhere in the Bible was a shepherd called a pastor.
Nicolaitan is the spirit that elevates a holy man to be the head of a church. God hates that spirit.
REVELATION 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.
Then they compounded their error by mocking and condemning the amazing efforts of the vaccine makers which have been the only effective control that we have found to keep the virus in check.
Thus deceived, they went on a path that led to their early deaths.
The beliefs of these church leaders not only led to their own deaths but also likely contributed to the deaths of others in their social networks and members of their congregation.
Some believed that God would not allow them to fall ill.
Thus, they never understood God’s Will.
Sadly, having defied medical advice and then died, people tend to see them as false prophets.
They have made the church seem irrelevant.
When many were hospitalized with severe symptoms after contracting COVID-19, they believed that prayer warriors might heal them while distrusting or even rejecting the life-saving treatment from doctors and nurses.
Their deaths proved that they had no mandate from God to ignore the benefits of vaccination.
Medical science is a gift from God and only foolish people condemn or ignore it.
Misplaced faith in religious leaders who eschew logic and reason are as harmful and dangerous today as they were in previous generations and societies when religious leaders encouraged war, slavery, and the extermination of opponents.
Religious leaders are flawed human beings like ourselves. They are easily obsessed with their own wrong interpretations of the Bible.
Churches must be run by a group of elders, not a pastor. A group of elders can keep a check on each other.
A pastor in charge of a church is just a form of dictatorship that God does not want.
Christianity and politics must be kept separate.
Medical vaccines that involve life or death is an issue that must be solved by data-driven science.
The church is not qualified to comment on such an issue. Too many preachers have claimed great faith, opposed the vaccine, and died.
Only the wise virgins understand the mysteries
Today's saved Christians are compared to ten virgins, clean women.
Some are wise and know what is going on. Some are foolish or fooled by conspiracy theorists.
MATTHEW 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
:3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
Lack of oil meant their lamps produced no light so that they could not see and thus not understand the written Bible properly.
DANIEL 12:10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand;
but the wise shall understand.
Christians who want to be Scriptural will be rejected and criticized. People who do wrong will dominate but will not understand God’s Will and God’s Word and will believe the current conspiracy theories.
Only the true Bride, the wise virgins, will base their beliefs on the written Word of the first church age apostles.
But there is one chilling line that describes the ten virgins who represent the saved Christians in the churches just before the Coming of the Lord.
They are all fast asleep.
MATTHEW 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
So, do today's churches really know what is going on? No. they are complacently asleep. Many are drugged into the political deception of conspiracy theories.
When asked about the end times, Jesus placed the emphasis on the biggest problem area which is deception.
MATTHEW 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
“Christ” means anointed. Preachers anointed with the power of the Spirit but preaching error.
MATTHEW 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Having a powerful supernatural ministry did not stop them being fooled by church traditions and political propaganda. Plus there is the financial incentive of being paid to preach.
MATTHEW 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Iniquity is knowing it is wrong but doing it anyway.
I TIMOTHY 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
The New Testament did not permit women preachers. No woman is allowed to usurp spiritual authority over men by explaining the Scriptures to men.
Two women interpreted God's Word wrongly and caused unbelievable havoc.
Eve was fooled into believing that multiplication meant sex. Adam knew sex was wrong but had to join her in sin in order to stop God from killing her for being pregnant.
Eve was pregnant when God punished her.
Notice that God never said "Because". God knew that she was so fooled, like the anti-vaxxers, that she had no idea that she had done wrong.
GENESIS 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception;
I TIMOTHY 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
God wanted the woman to produce a virgin birth so that Jesus could grow up and speak His saints from the dust with eternal life in them. But the woman went her own way to follow the animal way of reproduction. Thanks to Eve, we are all born in sin through sex. But eternal life cannot come through sex. No sin had greater consequences than what Eve did, as it affects us all.
Sarah was fooled into thinking that her husband could only produce the promised son through her servant Hagar. That was a big self-sacrifice for Sarah as she interpreted God’s Word for her own circumstances but created a disaster. She had no concept of waiting on God.
The son Ishmael created the Arabs who are the great enemy of the Jews. In 1974 the Arabs escalated the oil price because Israel won the 1973 Arab war. Inflation caused about 10 million poor people to starve to death in Africa and Asia. Countries got into a debt cycle that continues to this day.
Sarah thought that she knew how to interpret God's Word about Abraham's promised son Isaac. She made a huge mistake whose repercussions are still with us.
The virus escalates dictatorship and national debt
The COVID-19 pandemic has escalated the debt cycle of nations. America’s debt jumped from $20 billion to $30 billion.
MATTHEW 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
The list ends with pestilences like the COVID-19 pandemic which will be followed by earthquakes. When earthquakes cripple our financial centres then dictatorship will really take over.
We have seen two World Wars. The First World War forced governments to take dictatorial control over their countries. This unleashed an antichrist spirit of dictatorship that saw the rise of Lenin and Stalin in Russia, Mussolini in Italy, and Hitler in Germany. These political dictators unleashed murderous demonology onto the Jews, especially the Holocaust where Hitler killed 6 million Jews, in the Second World War. Then this demonology entered the church organizations to blind them to the revealed mysteries that brother Branham preached from 1947 to 1965.
The dictatorship spirit of a one-man-pastor ruling the church became firmly established.
The pastor's Bible errors and the brainwashing of the congregation by each pastor thus starved the people in the congregation of their chance to learn the truth about the revealed Bible mysteries. A spiritual famine swept through the churches.
Man-made famines in Ukraine, Russia, and China starved millions to death.
One pestilence was the Spanish Flu of 1918-1919 which killed over 50 million.
Another pestilence is the COVID-19 pandemic that swept the world after it started in China in 2020.
COVID-19 increased the national debt and forced democratic leaders to adopt dictatorial powers as the only way to combat the virus was lockdowns and then vaccines.
Now comes a sad irony. The more the people oppose the virus vaccine, the more dictatorial the governments have to get in order to protect the nation's health by enforcing the vaccine.
So the anti-vaxxers are actually training the governments to become more dictatorial.
This rise of dictatorial power is a manifestation of that antichrist spirit.
It is a prelude to when the antichrist Pope rules the world as a Dictator.
Many churches, naturally, were unhappy with the increasingly dictatorial mandates of the government. But they were fooled into political involvement by condemning the vaccine. This was totally the wrong reason.
But it is a sign of the times.
Debt is growing which greatly limits the freedom of people.
Also, the church is being fooled into protesting against the evil of vaccines.
But, as time passes the vaccine will prove to be effective against the virus and the vaccine will not make women sterile nor will it produce mass deaths or horrific auto-immune sicknesses. Nor will the vaccine depopulate the earth.
Thus the church, by spreading this fake news, will lose its credibility in the eyes of the people.
Anti-vaxxer preachers will be relegated to the reputation of false prophets.
Then the real man of sin will forcibly take over when earthquakes devastate our financial centres and create great Tribulation.
