Destruction of Christianity in America: The Beginning of the End
In the year 2006, as we approach December, I received a very difficult and painful message for the nation. I was very, very troubled because I love this nation. I was also very scared and did not want to deal with the message. Because of so many messages I was receiving and the visitations of Christ, I released a book in 2010 called; Closer Walk With Jesus, published by Lara Publications, 472 pages, and distributed by Anchor Distributors.
Warnings for the Nation
As a nation, we are in deep trouble! In this book, I discussed my spiritual journey in the Lord, and especially this warning to the nation in a chapter #37, The Prophecy of the Coming Catastrophe. This short chapter was difficult for me to write because it discusses the meltdown of this nation. I almost started to weep while writing this chapter because the future is not pretty, and it bothered me. The book also discusses why President Obama became a president; Gods answer to Oprah Winfreys spirituality; the warnings to the United States; and much more. At that time, I was of the opinion that Christianitys destruction would begin from the outside. Today, it appears as if even though Christianity is being assaulted from the outside, the religion is already unraveling from within. Even some people who are observing this painful trend are unable to talk about it. The question within me that I dread to talk about is, will American as a nation survive the coming catastrophe? This book discusses about the warning to the United States. I can guarantee you that there are many difficult days ahead. Sadly, instead of the present church dealing with the problems within and fixing them, it is busy pointing accusing fingers outside the church. While this is happening the recklessness inside the church continues. We are busy waving the flag of righteousness while the church is rotting from within like a bad apple.
Christians in the United States and perhaps in some European countries believe that the enemy of Christianity is on the outside. On careful observation of the way Christianity is practiced in the U.S. it appears that the enemy of Christianity is working from within to destroy the gospel messages of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Many Christians are being led astray even by their pastors and national religious leaders without realizing what they are doing. For example, instead of focusing and preaching the messages of Jesus as we are instructed in the Bible, we go on the mission field to identify sinners. Once we identify them, we name, shame, ostracize, and crucify them. By our operations, we believe we have the right to condemn sinners and send them straight to hell before Jesus could intervene. While on this mission of sinners destruction, we Christians love to hide our own skeletons in the closets hoping nobody else will find them. We believe the louder we shout at the top of our lungs and bulging our eyes at the sins of others, the more we receive praise from fellow Christians, the more we gain access to Heaven. This is a false doctrine that will lead many well-intended Christians straight to the gates of hell! Trust me, many Christians are already following along this pathway to hell!
Christianity by Faith
The entire tenet of Christianity is not just about a sinner who repented even though this is part of the process. The first critical importance of Christianity is about our FAITH in God through Christ. This was why Jesus said, "Most assuredly, I say to you he who hears my word and believes in Him who sent me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life" (St. John 5:24).
If you abrogate your faith in Christ for whatever reason, you will face Gods judgment regardless to what you have done on this earth. The critical point about being a Christian is based on your faith in Christ, not on your works because the heart of man is filled with hypocrisy and selfishness. Just because you went to an abortion clinic to beat-up a pregnant woman or hit the doctor upside the head will NEVER give you access to Heaven, but the contrary. You can shout at the top of your lungs about the sins of other people, it does not make you a better Christian neither does it make you more righteous. Trumpeting the sins of others was one of the reasons why Jesus blasted the Pharisees. If you study the life of Jesus, he did not condemn sinners like Zacchaeus, the lady at the well, the prostitute at the house of Simon the Pharisee, the adulterous woman caught in the act, or the thief on the cross. Instead, Jesus offered them the opportunity to repent and also gave them the gift of eternal salvation. However, Jesus came hard on the Pharisees who believed in their self-righteousness as a way to give them a free ride to Heaven (St. Matthew chapter 23). Jesus said they would have greater damnation, not because they were bad people, but because they were misleading others. The Pharisees of the time of Jesus based on their hypocrisy are no different from the modern day Pharisees who keep chasing sinners to condemn and crucify them, instead of preaching the gospel to them.
Critical Danger Many Christians Face Today
If you abandon your faith to support apostasy because of your political gains, you have abandoned your Christian faith. You will consequently face Gods Judgment, and a free ride to hell! This is why I believe America as a nation has reached a point of no return. We throw the gospel of Jesus overboard to embrace apostasy because we believe through such support earns us worldly riches and political gains. Many of you have been fooled by the devil, including many Christian leaders! Here is the reason:
According to national statistics, 40 to 50 percent of Christians now believe and support the Mormon doctrine that Jesus and Satan are brothers, God came from another planet, God is a man with a body of flesh and bones, there is a mother goddess, God and his goddess wife are married, you can become a god yourself, God had sex with Mary leading to the birth of Jesus Christ, the present Holy Bible has a lot of mistranslations, therefore we need another book.
If you are a Christian and you believe and support such apostasy, you have not only voluntarily relinquished your Faith in Christianity, you have set yourself on a pathway to judgment and eventual destruction in hell! Think about it this way from the statement of Jesus, "And that servant who knows his masters will, and did not prepare himself or do according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he who did not know, yet committed things deserving of stripes shall be beaten with few" (St. Luke 12:47-48).
Preachers Beware: Whosoever dared to introduce, or give the Bride of Christ (Church) in an adulterous relationship to apostasy for political gains (like the children of Israel did with Baal) will one day face the mighty hammer and the crushing blows of God's judgment! Our job as messengers of Christ is to protect the bride of Christ, and not to prostitute her for political gains!
If you are a Christian, you understand the tenet of the gospel message by Christ, and instead of teaching others the same thing and supporting the gospel message of Christ, you place yourself in eternal danger when you support apostasy compared to those who do not know. Jesus said that a sin against the Holy Spirit is an unforgivable sin. If you dare to insult God because of your political gains, by prostituting the church to idolatry, you will eventually pay a very painful price.
As if this is not enough, some Christian leaders in the U.S. including some Evangelicals have embraced the apostasy of "Christlam" the amalgamation of Christianity and Islam. There is nothing wrong in preaching the gospel of Christ to people of other religions, but if you accept their spirituality by worshipping their god, you have surrendered your faith in Christianity. You are no longer a Christian once you embrace apostasy. Pauls letter to the Galatians was about his warning against apostasy, "O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified?" (Galatians 3:1).
"But even if we, or an angel from Heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed" (Galatians 1:8).
"For if I still pleased men; I would no longer be a bondservant of Christ" (Galatians 1:10).
I can imagine how Jesus is responding to the destruction of the Christian doctrine in the U.S. saying, "O foolish Christians of America, who has bewitched you?" One time, I was working with a young lady who told me she was a white witch. She also explained to me that once in a while, a white witch could turn to a black witch. I was thinking in my heart this lady must really be crazy telling me this knowing Im a Christian. When she asked to join power with me; that was it! I told her to get away from me otherwise I would call Angel Holy Michael for an air strike and blow her up into ashes! How can I join power with darkness? For what reason would I want to mix light with darkness? Some people embracing apostasy for personal gains will eventually perish!
Many people in religions of which gospels are contrary to the gospel of Christ, or such gospels being anti-Christ for example like Islam that has already declared that God had no son, do so in ignorance. In most of these religions, something is very common to them. They have allowed the spirit of the enemy of God to deceive them. The intention of the devil is clear according to Jesus, "The thief comes but to steal, kill, and destroy; I have come that they might have life more abundantly" (St. John 10:10).
The point being, these people who started many of these other famous religions besides Christianity had supernatural encounters without a doubt. Those encounters are not necessarily from the deities of God, but that of the devil. Sadly, many of them started religions based on the mixture of the truth and lies because the devil wanted to be worshipped. That was why Jesus declared himself as the only truth, and nothing else! For every religion, there is a spiritual component. It is very important to be sure that the spirituality of your religion leads you to God and not to the devil. Today, Satan receives worship from millions of people including some Christians who have lost their sense of direction and the truth.
Statistics from some developing countries indicated that many people who walked away from Christianity to embrace apostasy or idolatry because of financial gains encountered sudden death. Some of these people were known to have sacrificed their own children in secret, capture their spirits, while using their blood in satanic rituals for making money. In the U.S. some Christians are sacrificing their Christian Faith for personal gains and the riches of the world. These Christians may face the same fate. God cannot be mocked with impunity!
Jesus Evaluated the Seven Churches on Spiritual Apostasy
Following the resurrection of Jesus, he gave an overview of the seven churches in the Book of Revelation. The purpose is for the church today to avoid the pitfalls of those churches while we minister to people about Christ. Of all the seven churches Jesus evaluated including the church of Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatria, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodiceans, only one church received an excellent grade. That was the smaller church of Philadelphia. Jesus warned the church of Smyrna to be prepared for the crises that were about to hit their church due to the work of Satan. The rest of the churches even though were striving, had problems. Jesus warned them that he would wash his hand off from any church that did not repent by recalling the angels assigned to that church. Majority of the problems Jesus cited with these churches were associated with doctrinal problems leading people to apostasy. Jesus mentioned the doctrine of Balaam, and that of Nicolaitans. Jesus talked about the demonic spirit of Jezebel of sexual seduction. He warned the church about the spirit of sexual perversion (Rev. 2:20-23).
Very interestingly, Jesus also addressed the current issues we have today about the prosperity of a larger church while addressing the church of Laodiceans. Jesus said, "Because you say, I am rich have become wealthy, and have need of nothing and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked" (Rev. 3:17). The church of Laodiceans was the typical image of many mega churches today. Some of them have large congregations with a lot of money to throw around and looking good in physical display of wealth before the world. Yet, they are suffering from spiritual poverty. I believe many mega churches out there are spirit filled and walking in the Spirit of the holiness of God. There are however many, who claim to be successful by the flamboyant buildings, yet they are empty in their spiritual walk with the Lord. Sadly many churches are polluted with the satanic gospel of prosperity. The only thing they think about is how much money they can raise to beautify the church and buy private jets for the preacher, while the churches are surrounded by beggars looking for food to eat.
America and the Almighty Dollar
The sadness about todays Christianity is the loss of faith in Christ. We believe more in the power of the dollar than believe in the Christian doctrine. Christians today believe that faith in Christ is not as important as the financial benefits we derive from Jesus for our own earthly benefits. Because of this, "the gospel of prosperity" has exploded in the United States among Christian leaders, and the relentless quest for making money at all cost regardless to what Jesus says is currently destroying the nation. The new gold rush is inside the church. The handwriting is on the wall folks; GREED is the poison that is about to destroy this great nation. Once Christianity is destroyed in the U.S. from an implosion from within, and so goes the giant nation as she falls apart. Many Christians are therefore supporting this doctrine from the heart of Satan. Remember what Jesus said about the deceptiveness of riches. This nation is on a count down to eminent disaster because this train of "Greed" has already left the train station and many Christians are now jumping on the bandwagon. If getting richer at the expense of the people is the reason for you to relinquish Christianity, you deserve what you get on the Day of Judgment! However, you may not worry so much if you believe that one day you will become a god in another planet, and you can call your own shots. Consequently, you do not need Jesus! If you believe Lucifer and Jesus are siblings, perhaps the gospel of the devil is as good as that of Jesus. The love of money will lead many to perish in hell! May the good Lord save us from spiritual blindness due to GREED!
Reality of Your Christian Faith
The reality of your faith in Christ is not based on your self-righteousness, hypocrisy, or the condemnation of others. The reality of your faith is to share Christ with other people "according to his messages in the gospel." If you pick and choose which ones of Jesus messages you believe, accept that you are a Christian only by name and you will eventually face Gods Judgment. This was exactly what Jesus said,
"Not all those who call me Lord, Lord shall enter in to the kingdom of God, except those who do the will of my father in Heaven" (St. Matthew 7:21).
"Depart from me you cursed into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For when I was hungry and you gave me no food; I was thirsty and you gave me no water to drink; I was a stranger and you did not take me in, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me" (St. Matthew 25:41-43).
Your greediness that caused many people to lose their homes, money in Wall Street, their life savings, their jobs etc will undoubtedly make you very rich, and at the same time set you on a fast journey to eternal damnation. This is the choice you have to make for yourself regardless to what anybody says. It is between you and your God. One thing that is common, the history of man is that apostasy tends to justify human desires of the flesh regardless to how good the intentions. There is nothing wrong with capitalism folks, but predatory capitalism will eventually welcome you to the Gates of Hell. America as a nation has opened the wide door of predatory capitalism. This is the primary reason why so many working class and poor people are suffering. God gave this nation more than enough for everybody, but greed is destroying the economy of the nation. The handwriting of Gods judgment is on the walls of this nation.
If you want to re-captivate your Christian walk, run away from apostasy regardless to the financial benefits. You cannot support apostasy and call yourself a Christian at the same time. Those two do not work together. You either believe in Jesus or the devil. If you accept apostasy, you are making mockery of God! The devil can embrace you with financial gains. In the end, the devil will destroy you, and your family. Dont take the chance, run from apostasy folks! If any religious leader is asking you to embrace apostasy he is asking you to jump in the lake of fire. Do so at your own risk!
Just because a person is a sinner is not the reason to condemn and walk away from such a person and embrace apostasy. Jesus asked us to preach the gospel to such a person. We are not the Holy Ghost junior. What we see in the nation right now is not about the enemy of Christianity from the outside. It is about Christians destroying Christianity from within. Due to our hypocrisy, we can no longer preach and change the minds of the people in the pews. So, we turn to the government. We delude ourselves that by voting a person in a political office we will turn around the economy of the nation. What a lie from the heart of the devil! May God have mercy on us! Will America survive the coming catastrophe? Do you think any politician is big enough to stop the moving hand of God? We sure love to fool ourselves, dont we?
The Beginning of the End
After many years of the apostasy of the children of Israel, God became fed up with them. He sent them into exile to be subdued, humiliated, raped, abused, used, and severely punished by their enemies. There was a lot of bloodshed and suffering! I believe God is giving us more opportunities to choose his direction according to the gospel message of Christ. Instead we choose apostasy because we believe in the false promise of economic gains. In essence, we raise the banner of abortion, and family values we never embrace in practice over the years. We see the disintegration of the family even inside the church. What did we do? Instead of looking inside, we point accusing fingers outside. We think God cannot see through our self-deceptions and hypocrisy. Many teachers of End Time Prophecy are presently unable to place the U.S. in the scenario of the world in the End Time. Many therefore believe that the U.S. may not be recognizable in the End Time just like the death of the Great Babylon of the Book of Revelation. This choice of embracing apostasy may be the last load that breaks the camels back.
The church that was supposed to lead people to Christ has been polluted not only with satanic gospels and idols, but also driven by money, power and fame while we allow the poor to suffer and the widows to weep. There is no doubt that this present church is not suitable for the rapture. The church as we see it today is going to die! A revival sweeping the world will emerge from outside the church to claim the remnants of the destruction of the present church age. The end is going to be very ugly for many who claim to be professed Christians but adamantly refused to follow the instructions of Jesus. The devil is a deceiver. If you play into his hand, you have yourself to blame. Support and embrace apostasy at your own peril.
