- Matthew 13:30 kjv "Let both grow together until
the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the
reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind
them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my
barn".
- 2 Corinthians 6:1-18 "We then, as workers together
with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God
in vain. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted,
and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now
is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) Giving
no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed: But
in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in
much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings,
in fastings; By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by
kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, By the word of
truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on
the right hand and on the left, By honour and dishonour, by evil
report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; As unknown,
and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened,
and not killed; As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet
making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
- O ye Corinthians, our mouth
is open unto you, our heart is enlarged. Ye are not straitened
in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels. Now for a recompence
in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged.
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for
what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and
what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord
hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth
with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with
idols? for ye (who are believers in Christ Jesus) are the
temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will
dwell in them, and walk in them; and
I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore
come out from among them, and be ye separate,
saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive
you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and
daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." Amen

- : GREETINGS to all and the newcomers to this list. We'd like
to introduce ourselves. George and Rita Williams founded this
ministry. We were Mormons (Temple Mormons) for 20 years. We prayed
to God in 1992 to allow us to do a ministry speaking out against
Scientology. Six months later God led us to the truth: out of
the cult of Mormonism. We did not know at the time we were in
a cult. No-one had witnessed to us in 20 years. [George passed
away to heaven in March 2003 and Nicholas Stivers joined the
ministry as Vice President.]
- The Holy Spirit brought us to information about all the cults
and the present development of the New World Order. We began
bringing our research to you. Because all the research was already
done, we decided to build a library within Cephas Ministry. Our
newsletters are not designed to provoke
anger or resistance to evil which is strictly prohibited in Scripture.
It is to shed light on activities by those who would deceive
the elect by devious methods and systematic plans.
- We appreciate and thank researchers
for submitting findings relative to our library:
- Bud Press, Kathy Camatara, Richard
Hopper and Mike. We try to get
as much published as we can. It is becoming more and more difficult
to deal with all the information we receive since there is a
lack of manpower.
- We are Bible students and have left all worldly organizations.
- The focus of these newsletters is to prove why we had
to leave the world system. We are called 'Watchmen on the
Wall' which God always had during the Old / New Testament Times.
- To understand what is happening, one has to know the Bible
to compare notes.
- The first section is about the church.
The news about churches is unedited unless indicated by Ednotes.
The church as we knew it, is undergoing disintegration. This
began on a fast track in the early nineteen sixties when the
Catholic Church produced liberal Vatican II to replace Vatican
I.
- The trend since then has been ecumenical which is truly what
the word 'Catholicism' means: a universal religion all
inclusive and multicultural. The Bible calls for a final church
which doesn't resemble what Jesus taught. The Word of God has
undergone many changes to fit the present mode. The Bible calls
for a falling away from the truth before Jesus
comes back for His Bride, the true believers called 'Ekklesia.'
Our newsletters prove this fact and prove that the Bible is true
from beginning to end.
- The second section is about globalism
where we bring your attention to the social, political and global
trend, so called democratizing what is left. One third of the
world still remains to be taken over. It again proves that we
are moving to closure of the times of the Gentiles prophesied
in the Bible.
- The third section compliments End Time
teachings with what is happening in Israel. We describe and watch
for signs of the coming Tribulation to confirm that we are moving
into that space and time.
- Watchmen on the wall do not solicit memberships. We have
an email group that gets information when we upload new information
and a newsletter whenever it is possible time wise. We love the
Lord with all our hearts and minds and we love all people God
has created but especially those who love our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ. Our Statement of Faith is at http://www.cephasministry.com/statement_of_faith.html
- ::We believe every word in the KJV Bible and believe it is
the Word of God and that Jesus is the Christ, God Himself, who
spilled His blood on the cross for our sins and rose again to
prepare a place for those who repent and accept 'His' righteousness
as their righteousness. They are those who accept Jesus Christ
as their Lord and Savior, Jews first and then Gentiles. We expect
to be raptured in a pretribulation Rapture to live with God the
Father, God His Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit, who
are ONE GOD in three persons, forever. Revelation 3:20
"Behold, I stand at the door,
and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will
come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me."
We invite you to take this opportunity to say 'yes' to Jesus
and commit your life to Him only by clicking on this link: Salvation
- Luke 12:20,21 "But
God said unto him, "Thou fool,
this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall
those things be, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth
up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."
We pray the Lord will bless you with a thirst for truth and a
desire to serve Him exclusively, in Christ Jesus, Nicholas A.

NOTICE THE "M" INSIGNIA |
- POPE BENEDICT XVI CALLS FOR UNITY AND PEACE
- In a three hour inauguration at the Vatican,
Pope Benedict XVI was officially sworn in as the spiritual leader
for the world’s 1.1 billion Catholics and made a plea for
humanity to return from the desert of suffering, embrace God
and to work towards peace and goodness.
On Sunday April 24, three weeks after the death of John Paul,
official dignitaries and an estimated 500,000 Catholic pilgrims
crowded the Vatican to witness the ceremony that saw the church’s
265th successor to St Peter, the Apostle. Pope Benedict, cloaked
in traditional golden vestments, appealed to worshippers for
their prayers to assist him in the “enormous task that truly
exceeds human capacity”.

- WILL FATIMA'S THIRD SECRET FINALLY BE REVEALED? READ FATIMA'S
THIRD SECRET
- Doom and Destruction Ended by Aggrieved People - This interpretation
of the third secret of Fatima is diametrically opposed to that
presented by Vatican officials. Sister Maria Lucia dos Santos,
the only living visionary of the apparitions of Our Lady at Fatima,
suggested that the content of this vision / prophesy be released
in 1960 during the pontificate of Pope John XXIII [John XXIII,
Oct. 28, Nov. 4, 1958 -- June 3, 1963]. Popes John XXIII, Paul
VI, and Pope John Paul I, perhaps fearing that it would apply
to them if published, refused its release. Pope John Paul II
waited almost 22 years before releasing it, probably while waiting
for a time, motivation, or interpretation favorable to him. Being
ambitious to declare as many saints as possible during his pontificate
Karol Wojtyla desired to beatify the two younger visionaries
of Fatima in Portugal, Francisco and Jacinta. Along with their
beatification it became expedient to publish the third part of
the secret of Fatima. This third secret had been put into written
form by the oldest of the three visionaries who is now living
in the Carmel of Saint Teresa in Coimbra, Portugal. With the
beginning of the new century Pope John Paul II believes that
all of the predicted events have occurred. What was seen as necessary
was to find an explanation of the prophesy that would present
the third secret in a favorable light regarding himself. This
has now been done primarily through the auspices of Joseph Cardinal
Ratzinger, Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the
Faith. Read on: http://www.cephas-library.com/catholic/catholic_fatimas_third_secret.html

- SPAIN & THE NEW ROME - UPDATE 2005
- Rapture Watch, April 2005 - "... Spain’s unique
placement in end time politics which make it a prime candidate
for being the prophetical fulfillment of Daniel 7:20-25. In this
passage of Scripture, along with Dan. 9:26, we are shown that
an 11th nation that would join a restored Roman Empire would
produce the last day’s world ruler Christians call the Anti-Christ.
With cautious apologies and due respect to King Juan Carlos of
Spain we must also present the unusual, if not uncanny circumstances
that have arisen in this particular king’s life that appear
to many to be fulfilling the specific prophecies concerning the
Anti-Christ.... From the global, political arena
we then look at the province of global religion. As the whole
world looked towards Rome and paid homage to the passing of Pope
John Paul II, many could not help but make note of the seating
assignments given to world leaders at the former pope’s
Vatican funeral. Viewed in media images all over the earth, seated
in the front row was King Juan Carlos of Spain. In row two was
seated the president of the United States George Bush. King Juan
Carlos was in fact notably seated in front of the bannister which
separated other attending dignitaries from the assembly of auspicious
Roman Catholic cardinals as he shared their floor area. In an
April 9, ‘05 Rocky Mountain News article which headlined
“Miraculous gathering of world leaders” it was reported
that, “More than 100 official delegations attended the funeral,
one of the largest religious gatherings of modern times...just
making it onto the front row was King Juan Carlos of Spain...ahead
of the president of the United States...in the second.”
The article reported that seating was done alphabetically. I’m
not sure why that is contended since “B” for Bush would
come before “C” for Carlos? Listing all of the different
nations alphabetically does not support the seating arrangement
either by my understanding.

- TELEVISION VIEWERS LONGING FOR THE
TRUE GOSPEL
- 02-16-2005 INSP IS NOW GONE FROM SKY ANGEL
- A VIEWER'S COMMENT: "I hope that if another Christian
network is added, it is an evangelical non-charismatic channel
that is not affiliated with any particular Denomination.
From my experience, evangelical Christians are not interested
in Christian Television “ministries” such as Benny
Hinn, Marilyn Hickey and the like. I hope it is a mix of solid
Biblical teaching and clean family entertainment, if it is
possible. If not, I hope Sky Angel leaves this slot open as long
as necessary until a new and unique channel can be developed."
- 03-03-2005 "It has been a while since INSP went off
Sky Angel’s TV channel lineup page. In the February/March
issue of NRB (National Religious Broadcasters) magazine Glenn
Plummer says “Farewell” as the Chairman/CEO of the
NRB. Glenn's comment was: "to pursue the development of
his own TV network. With the help and grace of the Lord, (and
a little help from some friends), he intends to build a major
television force in America.” http://www.satelliteguys.us/archive/index.php/t-47792.html
- CALVARY CONTENDER: NRB ALLOWS PROMOTION OF ANTI-TRINITARIAN
CULT
- National Religious Broadcasters president Dr. Frank Wright
is being asked by James Kieferdorf and others to remove Armor
of God from Christian stations. Kieferdorf writes: “I
am very concerned that Mr. David Cerullo (NRB board member)
is airing the program, Armor of God, on his television
station, the INSPIRATION NETWORK... ” (3/7 Chr. News) Armor
of God is produced by THE CHURCH OF GOD INTERNATIONAL (or “Living
Church of God”) founded by Garner Ted Armstrong , [which
is a splinter group of THE WORLD WIDE CHURCH OF GOD founded by
HERBERT ARMSTRONG.] CGI denies the Christian doctrine of
the Trinity, teaches that a man may become God, denies
an eternal conscious hell, teaches annihilationism, etc. These
and various other unbiblical teachings abound in Armstrong's
splinter groups and should not be promoted as Christian. It had
a doctrinal shift toward biblical orthodoxy in the mid-90s, and
became a member of the NAE in 1997. Some of the splinter groups
have made progress in shedding many Armstrong cultist beliefs,
but have not accomplished this as yet. One of these churchgoers,
last month in a rampage near Milwaukee, opened fire killing 8
people including the pastor. http://home.hiwaay.net/~contendr/4-2005.html

- WHAT HAPPENS IF I JOIN ROD MEREDITH'S LIVING CHURCH OF GOD?
- Living Church of God has been known to meet in Masonic temples
or buildings (as did Herbert Armstrong's Worldwide Church of
God). Freemasonry is a considered a religion but not a Christian
religion. Rod Meredith confessed to being initiated into the
DeMolays, a Masonic club for boys, when he was a teenager. ("Trust
Christ's Leadership," taped sermon, July 6, 1996.) He attended
Ambassador College from 1949 to 1952. Some believe that groups
such as the DeMolays are "feeder groups" for the Masons
("being groomed for potential membership in Masonry and
the Eastern Star when they reach adulthood"). (Hidden Secrets
of the Eastern Star by Cathy Burns. Also see our tapes: Freemasonry
and the Cult Connection. Could Dr. C. Paul Meredith (Roderick
Meredith's uncle) perhaps have been a Mason himself? Dr. Meredith
was an evangelist in the Worldwide Church. http://home.datawest.net/esn-recovery/artcls/meredith.htm

- http://www.cephas-library.com/complaints/complaints_letter_to_president_of_national_religious_broadcasters.html
- A CONCERNED CHRISTIAN WRITES TO CEPHAS MINISTRY
- I am very concerned that David Cerullo is airing the program
Armor of God on his television station, The Inspiration Network.
I know that I am not alone in this concern. Armor of God is produced
by the Church of God International (CGI) I have written to David
Cerullo documenting the many teachings that the CGI deviate from
Christian orthodoxy. You see, Brothers, many young believers
and those who have been in the faith a long time may get the
impression that the Armor of God is an evangelical, orthodox
ministry declaring historic biblical doctrines. It is not until
one looks into the doctrinal teaching of the CGI that the real
story is told. Often, the CGI presents their teachings so skillfully
that the person is sold on these beliefs before he or she realizes
it. If possible, I ask you to listen to this tape from the CGI.
It’s not a nice tape. It is a vicious attack on some of
our orthodox doctrines, especially the Doctrine of the Blessed
Trinity. On this tape by a Mr. Wayne Hendrix entitled "Who
Are You, Jesus?" you will hear Mr. Hendrix’s offensive
statements calling some of our doctrines "damnable lies,
heresy, deceiving, blasphemy, pagan, insidious." (

It’s blasphemy. It’s a pagan concept that existed thousands

that’s more insidious." All I can say is this is BLASPHEMY!

- COOPERATION BETWEEN A/G AND INSP GIVES BIRTH TO COOPERATIVE
MINISTRY
- Christianpost.ocm Aug. 18, 2004 - A/G and INSP plan to develop
television programs and many other outreach opportunities together.
According to Assemblies of God (A/G) General Superintendent Thomas
E. Trask, the General Council of the Assemblies of God has been
discussing plans with Inspiration Networks (INSP) to cooperate
and develop television programs with the intention of reaching
out to meet the spiritual and physical needs of people. Both
A/G and INSP refer to this effort as Cooperative Ministry because
it is the cooperation between the two organizations. Through
this cooperation, INSP will include television programs for the
Assemblies of God and airing some special programs as well. The
first of these specials, entitled "A Caring Community,"
is scheduled to air on Inspiration Networks in October. David
Cerullo, president and CEO of The Inspiration Networks, commented
that INSP is pleased to work with the Assemblies of God for its
reputation of reaching out to positively impact people's lives
emotionally and spiritually in relation with God. Cerullo also
said that A/G has helped numerous people around the world through
many other programs and activities besides the traditional venues
in churches, such as publishing magazines, establishing higher
education programs with several colleges and many types of humanitarian
outreach. While comparing with A/G, Cerullo complimented INSP
for its diverse curriculum. "The Inspiration Networks also
has a diverse means of reaching people for God's kingdom,"
Cerullo adds. "Our diverse outreach include several television
networks, the production of daily ministry programs, an television
program and club for children, and an outreach for teens. The
two ministries will complement one another as we seek new ways
to share the good news of the Gospel." INSP is a 24 hour-a-day
cable television network which targets millions of Americans
who embrace inspirational values. INSP features original and
exclusive music, children's programs and a wide variety of different
ministry programming in effort of impact lives worldwide for
Christ through media. http://www.christianpost.com/article/ministries/837/full/cooperation.between.ag.and.insp.gives.birth.to.cooperative.ministry/1.htm

- MORAL MAJORITY RECRUITMENT BEGINS FOR 1ST MILLION TMMC CHARTER
MBRS
- Jerry Falwell - Publisher, National Liberty Journal - Readers
may join at www.faithandvalues.us
- Jerry Falwell writes: I’m Finishing What I Started 25
Years Ago. (He has not been well lately) My first challenge in
1979 when I founded the Moral Majority was to recruit pastors
and lay people who would help me energize, inform and mobilize
religious conservatives for social and political activism. Our
platform was clearly defined. We were pro-life, pro-family, pro-Israel
and committed to strong national defense. Our first priorities
were voter registration and the selection of a “champion”
to support for the presidency in November 1980. We organized
quickly in all 50 states, eventually enlisting about 100,000
pastors, priests, a few rabbis and millions of grassroots Americans
around our agenda. We chose Ronald Reagan in 1980 as our flag
bearer and we were “off to the races.” The rest is
history. Ronald Reagan was elected. Twelve liberal senators were
unseated. The national media declared that the “religious
right” was born. Faith and family social issues became front
burner political issues, with Roe vs. Wade in our crosshairs
from Day One. Thousands of evangelical pastors have since joined
the ranks of “salt ministry” leadership. Many Champions
Have Provided Leadership During the past quarter century, courageous
and brilliant evangelical mega-leaders like Pat
Robertson, James Dobson, D. James Kennedy, Tim and Bev LaHaye,
Franklin Graham, Gary Bauer, Ralph Reed, Mathew Staver, Jay Sekulow,
Don Wildmon, Janet Parshall, John Hagee, Charles Stanley, Adrian
Rogers, Rick Scarbor-ough, Rod Parsley, David
Cerullo and others have provided powerful influence
inside the Christian camp.
- More than 25 years have passed since the Moral Majority was
born. The fruit of our never-ending labors was blessed by God
and became obvious to the world on November 2, 2004 when more
than 30 million “faith and values” voters went
to the polls and made the difference in America .
- The battle is not over by any means. We have thrown down
the gauntlet. The left is furious. Every-one now knows that the
stage is set for the church of Jesus Christ to turn this nation
back to the faith of our fathers and the Judeo-Christian ethic.
New Supreme Court justices can overturn Roe vs. Wade. The Federal
Marriage Amendment to the U.S. Constitution can forever define
the family as one man married to one woman. Any senator who opposes
this FMA could face the same fate Sen. Tom Daschle experienced.
I truly believe we can bring 40 million “faith and values”
voters to the polls in 2008 to assure that Sen. Hillary
Clinton, or someone of her ilk, will never be president of this
nation. But, I need one million new charter members of
TFVC immediately.
- THE INSPIRATION NETWORK REACHES 17 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS
- In the face of further media industry consolidation The Inspiration
Network (INSP), based in Charlotte, N.C., has been able to carve
a niche as a beacon for religious programming for more than 20
different denominations 24 hour a-day cable. Founded in 1990
by C. DAVID CERULLO, the for-profit, independently
owned network targets the millions of Americans who embrace
inspirational values. Inspiration Network today reaches over
22 million cable subscribers through over 2,000 cable
systems. Since the beginning, INSP has also embraced the direct
response community, and the network still derives a substantial
portion of its revenue through long-form advertising.

This morning I'll be meeting with Dr. Michael Youssef, Senior
Pastor of Church of the Apostles. I am interviewing Michael for

The program will air on Thursday, October 28, on the Trinity

is going to be on the importance of Christians participating
in the political process. Dr. Youssef

- ARMSTRONG, GARNER TED
- Outcast son of Herbert W. Armstrong who founded the Worldwide
Church of God. Garner Ted assisted his father in spreading the
Armstrong "gospel", and he hosted The World Tomorrow
telecast. That is, until his expulsion in 1978 for his philandering
with money and women. Today he heads up his own cult in Texas:
The Church of God International. His beliefs are very similar
to those of his father.
- Armstrong, Herbert W. Founder and lifelong leader of the
Worldwide Church of God. Born 1892; founded cult in 1934; died

- ONCE IN A CULT, NOW SEES IMPORTANCE OF KNOWING THE TRUE DOCTRINE
- Jun 29, 2004 - By Jeff Robinson - Seminary student David
Bell is a former minister in the Church of God International,
a cult group that rejected such orthodox beliefs as the Trinity.
Today he is a doctoral student at Southern Seminary in Louisville,
Ky. - (BP)--Is it important for a Christian to study biblical
doctrine or should all Christians merely love Jesus and leave
theology to trained theologians? Ask David Bell, who may be Exhibit
A in the case for the doctrinal training of all Christians. Bell
is a doctoral student at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
in Louisville, Ky., but less than a decade ago he was a pastor
in the Church of God International, which branched off from the
Worldwide Church of God in 1978. Founded by Herbert Armstrong
in 1934, the Worldwide Church of God rejected the doctrine of
the Trinity, denied the Holy Spirit as a member of the
Godhead, and held that redeemed men eventually will join the
“god class.”
- While the Worldwide Church of God has undergone a dramatic
doctrinal shift over the past decade, the majority of the Armstrongist
movement, now composed of many smaller churches, continues with
essentially the same doctrines espoused by Herbert Armstrong.
These churches also hold unorthodox views on the new birth, the
person of Christ, and a number of other doctrines central to
historic Christianity... The next doctrine to tumble down was
the Trinity -- Armstrongists are strongly anti-Trinitarian.
The final Armstrongist brick that Bell dislodged was the group’s
teaching on God. Armstrongists believe that man eventually accomplishes
‘god-status,’ a qualitative equality with God. It didn’t
take a seminary education for Bell to realize that was blasphemy.

- CHURCH SPLIT IN DISPUTE OVER BUSH
By AP May 11, 2005 - WAYNESVILLE, N.C., May 10 (AP) - A Baptist
preacher who was accused of forcing nine members to leave his
church because they refused to support President Bush said on
Tuesday that he was stepping down. "For me to remain now
would only cause more hurt for me and my family," the preacher,
the Rev. Chan Chandler, said as he left a meeting at East Waynesville
Baptist Church. Congregants of the 100-member church have said
that Mr. Chandler endorsed Mr. Bush from the pulpit during last
year's presidential campaign and said that anyone who planned
to vote for the Democratic nominee, Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts,
needed to "repent or resign." The church members said
that he continued to preach about politics after Mr. Bush won
re-election, culminating in a church gathering last week in which
the nine members said they were ousted. Speaking from the pulpit
on Tuesday night, Mr. Chandler, 33, said that the dispute was
rooted in his strong feelings about abortion. He then left with
his wife and drove away from the church escorted by the police.
A few moments later, about 40 of his supporters, many in tears,
came out while other church members remained inside...
Mr. Chandler's resignation, at a meeting open only to members
of the congregation, came a day after a national group that lobbies
for church-state separation urged the Internal Revenue Service
to investigate the tax-exempt status of the church.
I.R.S. rules bar clear-cut politicking by tax-exempt groups.
In October, days before Mr. Bush won a second term, the agency
said it was investigating roughly 60 charities and other tax-exempt
groups - about a third of them churches - for potentially breaking
rules that bar them from political activity. The outcome of those
investigations is not known; the I.R.S. is prohibited from naming
the groups it investigates or announcing results.

OF THE WORSHIP OF THE VIRGIN MOTHER - DIVINE CHILD IN THE PAGAN
SUN GOD TRADITION!
While Catholics believe they are venerating the Virgin Mary and
Divine Child Jesus in the Biblical tradition, the evidence is
overwhelming that they are really continuing the Egyptian and

her Divine Son. Once more, Roman Catholicism is shown to be counterfeit

who are not truly believers. Too many American Christians have

- SCANDAL CATHOLIC PUBLISHER DESIGNS 666 ON MISSAL, AND DISTRIBUTES
THEM TO U.S. CHURCHES
- Satan’s Signature Featured in Cartoon-like Cover
Art; Demonic Imagery Found Throughout the Pews of American Catholic
Churches
- New York, NY (July 6th, 2004) – The Oregon Catholic
Press (OCP), supplier of the worship materials used in two-thirds
of American Catholic parishes, has published demonic cover art
featuring a 666 on their “2004 Today’s Missal Music
Issue.” The missals have been distributed to U.S. Catholic
churches, and are in widespread use for an apparent covert message.
The OCP, already being investigated for their hymnals and missals
containing phallic symbols and demonic imagery, have added the
sign of the beast to their current music issue, which features
a colorful exploding red cross in a cartoon-like drawing, obviously
aimed at children.
The imagery was discovered at Holy Name of Jesus Church in Westchester,
NY while the young children of Silver Sword International film
producer Michael A. Calace were examining the missal during Mass.
Mr. Calace used his visual art expertise to confirm the images,
and subsequently uncovered a trend of demonic church artwork.

- WELCOME FINLAND: IN THE HOSPITAL OF GRACE
- I had opportunity to interview the medical director JC of
Grace Hospital, and talk with him about diseases troubling the
body of Christ. The greatest concern for him seemed to be the
chronical disease called "petsin". He grieved the fact,
that there is a cure even for this disease, but people don't
want to give up their stucked habits. Essential conception in
this disease is the dependency on the enjoyment to passing pleasures
of sin. After that follows, depending the individual case, different
types feelings of guilt. Those people, who don't have feelings
of guilt anymore, have passed to the lethal phase of their disease,
namely to unrepentance. If uncured, this disease definitely leads
to death:"But each one is tempted when he is drawn away
by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived,
it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings
forth death." (James 1:14,15)
- Unfortunately, people don't take this disease seriously,
though it paralyses the body of Christ (in Grace Hospital they
do, of course). Many quacks, who haven't bothered to come to
the lessons given by professor Jesus in the Grace University,
heal the wounds and diseases on too light grounds:"They
have also healed the hurt of my people slightly, saying,'Peace,peace!'
when there is no peace." (Jer.6:14) They are keeping busy
on secondary things, like healing physical diseases and wounds.
Even in this case, many are going over their own level of qualification,
promising great signs and wonders. Big talk is cheap and easy.
Medical director JC has great concern of those many patients
who, because of wrong diagnosis and treatment, are lacking a
proper cure:"It is better for you to enter into life lame
or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast
into everlasting fire." (Mt.18:8) These quacks leave the
preaching of the Gospel to a secondary position, thou! gh just
this is the right medicine for healing the real wound. Where
is this real wound located? The Medical Manual gives us answer
even to this question:"The heart is deceitful above all
things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it?" (Jer.17:9)

- A LETTER FROM FINLAND ABOUT AN ANSWERED PRAYER
- I visited your site cephas ministry with great interest.
Especially I was interested about Rodney Howard-Browne. I want
to share with you a task the Lord has given to me. That man wants
to come to our country again and have Finland on Fire conference
in a city called Tampere. The Lord has put me in the gap of the
wall to stop that man enter our country again. Without any doubt
I believe he never put his feet on Finnish soil again. Why I'm
so bold on this issue? I heard last August that he was going
to have a 5 city tour and I started to pray the Lord to stop
him. I started with great enthusiasm but my passion faded day
by day. I thought he'd entered Finland anyway. What a surprise
it was, when I read on their Finnish home page, he didn't make
it. Hurricane in Florida did stop him. He tried everything, but
in vain. Maybe coincidence, maybe not, but this time I have no
doubts at all. The Lord has shut the door for him into this country

- BEWARE OF REQUIRED READING, MUCH OF IT PRE-REFORMATION
- Christian and secular bookstores have begun carrying many
books promoting "this pre-Reformation form of spirituality."
These include The Cloister Walk, Book of Hours, The Soul Aflame,
Evensong, A Book of Daily Prayer, The Divine Hours, and The Prayer
Book of the Medieval Era.
Much of the required reading for courses on "Classics of
Church Devotion" are books by Roman Catholic authors: Spiritual
Exercises by Ignatius of Loyola founder of the Jesuits), The
Cloud of Unknowing (by an unknown 14th century Catholic monk),
New Seeds of Contemplation by Thomas Merton (a Catholic convert
from Anglicanism), Confessions of Saint Augustine (one of the
fathers of the Roman Catholic Church), The Imitation of Christ
by Thomas Kempis, Selected Works of Bernard of Clairvaux, and
The Interior Castle by Teresa of Avila (the latter two are Catholic
"saints"). The works of Roman Catholic mystic Madame
Guyon are very popular in evangelical churches and schools.
The Lord Jesus Christ warned about repetitious prayers, and He
gave no liturgy to the churches apart from the simple ordinances
of baptism and the Lord's Supper. There is no New Testament pattern
for the use of rote prayers, chanting, ringing bells, wearing
special clothes, lighting candles, and such things. Rome replaced
New Testament spirituality, which is a living relationship with
Jesus Christ through by faith in His finished Atonement, with
its false tradition and dead liturgy. It is sad to see men who
profess to be "anabaptists" and evangelicals going
back to this ritualism. (www.wayoflife.org)

- COUNTERING ECUMENISM AND REACHING CATHOLICS FOR CHRIST
- The 2005 National Workshop on Christian Unity recently completed
their meetings at the Sheraton New Orleans. Over 325 delegates
from all the major denominations participated
in events opened with worship on Monday, April 4th. Keynote
Speaker, Catholic Bishop Sklba called the delegates "to
be partners in the proclamation of the gospel, not rivals."
The pace of ecumenism continues to speed up and it would
be profitable to review some comments by Reaching Catholics for
Christ speaker Mike Gendron from his article "The Vatican¹s
Call for Unity."
- How are Christians to protect themselves in the midst of
the religious deception so prevalent in the world today? The
Bible exhorts us to search the Word of God for wisdom, understanding,
and discernment (Prov. 2). We are to test every teaching. "Examine
everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good" (1
Thes. 5:21). We are warned not to believe every spirit because
many false prophets have gone out into the world. It is only
by God¹s Word that we can discern the Spirit of Truth from
the spirit of error (1 John 4:1,6).
- We are to be like the Bereans who examined the Scriptures
daily to verify the truthfulness of the Apostle Paul¹s teachings
(Acts 17:11). If the one who wrote over half the New Testament
was tested, it stands to reason everyone¹s teaching must
be examined in the light of God¹s Holy Word.
- What are we to do with the false teachers within Christendom?
We are to expose their false teachings and refrain from participating
in their endeavors (Eph. 5:6, 11). With gentleness, we are to
correct those who are in error in hopes that God may grant them
repentance leading to the truth (2 Tim. 2:25). Those who "profess
to know God but by their deeds they deny Him" must be exposed
and silenced so others will not be deceived (Titus 1:9-16). We
are commanded to separate from those who persist in false teaching
(Rom. 16:17; Titus 3:10). For some, this may mean finding another
church. For others, it may mean withholding support from ministries
that continue to compromise the Gospel. The apostles warned us
that if we do not separate from false teachers we could be disqualified
for service (2 Tim. 2:20), become identified with them and their
error (2 John 10-11), and risk being partakers of their fate
(Jude 11-13). http://www.reachingcatholics.org/vatican_call.html

- WHO IS TO INHERIT POPE'S VAST ESTATE?
- ROME -- April 3rd, 2005 - Legal queries dominated the air
on Sunday as the question of who would inherit the pope John
Paul II's incredible estate after his passing on Saturday.
The pontiff was the monarch of a small, autonomous country and
leader of a billion-strong worldwide organization, yet never
married and left no legal heirs.
"Cases like this can be a quite a difficulty for families,"
said Richard Johnson, a tax expert in Miami, Florida. "Being
locked up in the court system is not the place where you want
it to be." A Vatican spokesperson would not comment on the
inheritance, only fueling speculation in the legal community.

- ONLY ONE MORE POPE AFTER THIS POPE?
- April 18, 2005 - The next Pope, whose name will be announced
shortly, is described in the prophecies as Gloria Olivae,
or 'The glory of the olive.' What exactly does this clue
mean? We cannot tell as yet. Some believe that it means he will
come from the Benedictine order, which is symbolised by
the olive. Others argue that the olive signifies Israel. As in
the case of many prophets and seers, St Malachy's clues often
become clear to us only after the fact. In the 112th and final
prophecy St Malachy refers darkly to a Pope he calls Petrus Romanus,
or Peter the Roman. 'In extreme persecution, the seat of the
Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will
lead his sheep through many tribulations, at the end of which
the city of seven hills shall be destroyed, and the dreadful
Judge shall judge the people.' http://www.cephas-library.com/catholic/catholic_only_one_pope_left.html

- WARREN TEAMS UP WITH NEW AGE GURU
Lighthousetrails.com April 19, 2005 "While Rick Warren is
gearing up to train a billion people, unbeknownst to many he
has also been teamed up with New Age and contemplative promoter,
Ken Blanchard, for some time now.
According to a new biography on Rick Warren, A Life with Purpose
written by George Mair, Rick Warren has solicited the services
of Ken Blanchard to aid him in training leaders: 'Rick taps the
best and most famous to help train church leaders to be like
Jesus. He has hired Ken Blanchard ... to come to Saddleback to
help train people how to be effective leaders' (p. 193). There
is countless evidence to show that Blanchard sits on the New
Age/ mystical/ contemplative bandwagon. Blanchard believes in
the benefits and use of mantra meditation, yoga and has no
trouble borrowing from Buddhism. Blanchard wrote the foreword
to Jim Ballard's books Mind Like Water and What Would Buddha
Do At Work? He is on the front cover of Corporate Mystic and
the back cover of Deepak Chopra's Seven Spiritual Laws of Success
and wrote the Foreword to Ellen Ladd's (clairvoyant) book, Death
and Letting Go. Blanchard makes no apology when he says much
can be gained from Buddhism. He and his wife both encourage the
practice of yoga (p. 11) and mantra meditation. Ken Blanchard,
Rick Warren, and Bill Hybels (Willow Creek) have become team
players at the Lead Like Jesus conferences, which take place
across North America. The three
also have an audio set they co-authored together."

- THE MORMON JESUS
- A controversial book written by a Mormon named Robert Millet
is causing a stir because it was signed by a Christian Apologetic
who is a member of the largest Christian Apologetic Publishers
organization named EMNR. We have addressed EMNR before but this
time they are really over the line.
- We were planning to advertise this event in our event website
http://abide-in-truth-event.cephasministry.com
, a Mormon Conference by FAIR only because a Christian former
Mormon was invited to speak. Since then we were notified that
he had another engagement. Apparently this is about this new
book: "The Mormon Jesus, " and other events that have
occurred recently mentioned in our last newsletter. Rev. Greg
Johnson (former Mormon Christian Aplogetic) seeks to 'Bridge
the Differences' rather than pull the veil off Mormonism
which needs to happen to set the captives free.
- Bud Press wrote: "My copy of Robert Millet's latest
book, A Different Jesus? The Christ of the Latter-Day Saints
has arrived. Although I plan a thorough review, the following
paragraph from the Glossary (page 198) is just one of the things
that separates Mormonism from historic Christianity forever:
"Godhead The Godhead consists of three distinct personages
and three Gods--the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Father
and Son have bodies of flesh and bones, while the Holy Spirit
is a spirit personage." From its beginning, the Mormon "Jesus"
is a lie based on fraud and deception. The Mormon "Jesus"
has not the power to forgive, save, sanctify and redeem. The
Mormon "Jesus" never has and never will exist, but
may be found within Paul's inspired warning in 2 Corinthians
11:3-4, and deep within the savage heart of Satan himself. The
Mormon "Jesus" is as cold and lifeless as the statue
on the front cover of Robert Millet's book."
- This statue stands at the Salt Lake City Temple. When I left
Mormonism in 1992, I too was hoping something of the church would
be salvageable but found that the foundation is incorrect. The
Book of Mormon is a fraud, then how can the rest of the Doctrines
be true except for one, the KJV Bible. The Bible is used for
propaganda purposes to get born again Christians to join and
to remain. In fact their other standard works are contradicting
each other. The Book of Mormon is only one of four Doctrines
they teach. The foundation is the Book of Mormon. To take it
out is equivalent to taking the Bible out of Christianity. Christianity
would cease to exist.

- ISLAM'S "HIDDEN IMAM" (THE MAHDI, OR MESSIAH)
An Ayatollah was discussing religious writings in the Hadith,
(Muslim holy writings) ,and came to this conclusion in order
to hasten the coming of their Islamic messiah: "One should
fight the Jews and vanquish them so that the conditions for the
advent of the Hidden Imam be met." Texts concerning the
end of days are filled with allegorical images and hidden meanings
and this ayatollah wants these texts available for all to understand.
He said, "In the texts it is told that the Hidden Imam will
remove the yoke of humiliation from mankind's neck". Therefore
it is clear that prior to the advent of the Hidden Imam, arrogance
(a common epithet for Western powers, especially the U.S.A.)
and colonialism rules the world." I guess they too believe
that they are close to the days of the coming of their Islamic
savior. All they need do to prepare is kill the Jews and destroy
the arrogance of the Western colonial powers. So we can see how
this ideology may be what drives a confederacy against Israel.
Looking at (Ezekiel 38,39) Israel again comes under attack by
all of her Arab neighbors. Could the drive to establish a "Mahdi
on the throne" be the reason? Maybe so. Source: Hollis Caravetta

- THE QUEEN OF HEAVEN SHOWING UP IN CHURCHES!
Would you expect to find books on the goddess in Christian churches
or in your local New Age book store? I would not expect her to
show up in a Christian bookstore, but that is where she's shown
up! An old Lutheran church in a rural farming community in North
Dakota has just opened their new bookstore in the parsonage.
The bookstore had lots of new offerings from worldly famous authors
such as Lynn Andrews, whose books blend witchcraft with Native
American rituals. The shelves hold New Age books, self-empowerment
books, and other occult traditional spirituality. In the children's
section was a coloring book called, "Many Faces of the Great
Goddess!" Kiddies were to color page after page of topless
goddesses, nude or pregnant, and/or draped in serpents! Imagine
what this would do for their innocent imaginations as they view
pictures of "sacred" sex and ancient myths?! Why would
a "Christian" church be promoting such blatant paganism?
Maybe because as a whole culture we have drifted from the simplicity
of God's Word, complicating our already stressed out lives with
a taste and zeal for myths, spiritualized sensuality, new revelations
and "higher" truths. Enter the "mother-goddess!"

FRANKLIN GRAHAM REFUSES TO STATE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EVANGELICALS
AND THE RCC.
WayofLife.org Church News Notes, April 29, 2005 - In an April
5 appearance on Hannity & Colmes on the Fox News television
network, Franklin Graham was asked this question by Sean Hannity
(who is Roman Catholic): "Let me ask you this, what are
some of the disagreements -- we only have 30 seconds this segment
-- between, say, Catholicism and evangelical Christians? Or is
it just more that you agree on than disagree on?" Graham
replied: "Well, there are a lot of doctrinal issues that
we disagree on. But the things that we do agree on are the cross,
that Jesus Christ was the son of the living God who went to the
cross, took our sins, died on that cross, was buried on the third
day, according to the scriptures, rose again. And this is the
essence. This is what we agree on and we can work
together on and can build on." It is commendable for Graham
to preach the Gospel on television, and I understand that he
had limited time (although his time on the show did not end with
that segment) and wanted to focus on the Gospel; but that does
not excuse the fact that his reply was artful, erroneous, and
dangerous. It was artful in that he refused to state any of Rome's
serious doctrinal heresies. It was erroneous because he said
the Roman Catholic Church believes in the cross and salvation
the same way that "evangelicals" do, which they certainly
do not.
This erroneous statement would have given Graham's Roman Catholic
listeners a false sense of security in their faith-works-sacraments
gospel. Graham's statement was dangerous because he said that
evangelicals and Catholics need to work together and build on
their agreements, whereas the Bible commands God's people to
separate from heresy and apostasy (e.g., Rom. 16:17; 2 Tim. 3:5)
and an unscriptural unity plays more into the hands of the antichrist
than Christ.

- METHODISTS REINSTATE DEFROCKED MINISTER
NYT Published: April 30, 2005 by Lauri Goodstein - An appeals
panel of the United Methodist Church has reinstated a lesbian
minister who was defrocked in December after revealing in a sermon
to her Philadelphia congregation that she was living with her
gay partner.
- The decision overturns a ruling by a lower church court that
removed the Rev. Irene Elizabeth Stroud from the ministry for
violating Methodist law that forbids "self-avowed practicing
homosexuals" to be ordained or serve as members of the clergy.
- The panel, made up of clergy members and laypeople representing
church districts in the Northeast, voted 8 to 1 to reinstate
Ms. Stroud after a hearing in Baltimore. Last December, the lower
court ruled 7 to 6 to remove her from the ministry.
- The seesaw in church courts is only the latest sign of the
divide over homosexuality in the United Methodist Church, the
nation's third-largest Christian denomination, with 8.2 million
members. For years, gay members of the clergy in the denomination
have functioned under a "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
But in the past year two lesbian ministers, including Ms. Stroud,
who disclosed their gay relationships were brought to trial.

 POPE BENEDICT
XVI CALLS FOR UNITY AND PEACE
The Epoch Times - Apr 26, 2005 by Tim Blainey - In a three hour
inauguration at the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI was officially
sworn in as the spiritual leader for the world’s 1.1 billion
Catholics and made a plea for humanity to return from the desert
of suffering, embrace God and to work towards peace and goodness.
On Sunday April 24, three weeks after the death of John Paul,
official dignitaries and an estimated 500,000 Catholic pilgrims
crowded the Vatican to witness the ceremony that saw the church’s
265th successor to St Peter, the Apostle. Pope Benedict, cloaked
in traditional golden vestments, appealed to worshippers for
their prayers to assist him in the “enormous task that truly
exceeds human capacity”.
-
 Benedict, a shy, retiring theological
scholar, is known for his conservative and traditional moral
stance on maters such as abortion, contraception and homosexuality.
He faces the challenge of addressing the dwindling numbers and
an ageing base in the West. In the developing world the Catholic
Church faces growing competition from evangelical sects. In his
homily the German Pope, who once spent time in the Hitler Youth,
repeated the promise he made on Wednesday April 20 to continue
John Paul’s policy of reconciliation with the Jewish people

- RUSSIA'S NEW HYPERSONIC MISSILES ACT LIKE A "SWARM OF
BEES"
 Defense Ministry's newspaper Krasnaya
Zvezda (Red Star) reported that following the large-scale strategic
command-and-staff drill, Russian President and Supreme Commander-in-Chief
Vladimir Putin "stated that in the not too distant future
the newest technical complexes capable of hitting targets at
intercontinental range with hypersonic speed and high accuracy
and with the capability to maneuver greatly both in altitude
and heading would become operational with the Strategic Missile
Troops. "Instead of the conventional strategic warhead which
flies a preset trajectory and which is difficult but possible
to intercept," the article continued, "the Russian
military will receive delivery systems with multiple re-entry
vehicles capable of executing maneuvers at the highest possible
speeds. It's impossible to destroy them in orbit today and this
task probably won't succeed in being accomplished in the foreseeable
future."
- The article also stated that "Russia's Strategic Missile
Troops will begin to be equipped with the new complexes even
before 2010." This "almost revolutionary step,"
which according to a senior source in the Russian Defense Ministry
"really does change the philosophy of military-strategic
interaction," was acknowledged by Baluyevsky in a news conference
to be "part of our unilateral response to the creation or
future creation of a missile defense system by any state or bloc
of states."
- Baluyevsky was clearly alluding to the 50 billion dollar
anti-missile shield currently being developed by the United States.
Though during the Cold War Moscow and Washington formed an agreement
not to develop large-scale missile defenses, in 2002 President
Bush pulled out of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty to develop
a missile shield to protect the nation from terrorists and "rogue
states." The U.S. shield is still in its early stages, but
according to the U.S. Missile Defense Agency it will be capable
of defending all fifty states against a limited ballistic missile
attack by the end of 2004.
- Baluyevsky acknowledged that the Russian military's command-and-staff
training exercises, which also included the launch of a military
satellite, missiles from land and sea, and other traditional
elements, were done "in light of the changes that have occurred
in military and other threats, and on the basis of the main organizing
principle of the Russian Armed Forces: strategic mobility by
nuclear deterrence." He admitted that Russia is also taking
into account the activity of the U.S., particularly its nuclear
doctrine. "The U.S.'s new nuclear doctrine has many elements
that we don't understand and must respond to," he stated...

- UNITED STATES DECLARES SECRET WAR AGAINST ISRAEL OVER ATTEMPT
TO COLLAPSE WORLD ECONOMY. NEW ZEALAND PRIME MINISTER TARGETED
- April 22, 2005 by: Sorcha Faal - Reports have reached us
today from our Russian Intelligence sources that the President
of the United States has today ordered, by a secret Executive
Order, that both the Military and Intelligence forces of the
United States are to begin active confrontations with all Israeli
forces, both military and intelligence, on a worldwide basis.
- In what has been described by an aide to President Putin
as “the last straw to the Americans”, was the
attempt by Israeli Intelligence agents to transport from the
Philippines to China over Three Trillion Dollars of United States
Federal Reserve Bearer Bonds, and as we can read as reported
by the ABS-CBN News Service in their article titled “2
Brits nabbed with $3 trillion in fake US fed notes",
and which says;
- "The
National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) on Thursday said it has
arrested two British nationals with $3 trillion fake US federal
bank notes in their possession, DZMM reported."
- This extraordinary action against their ally the United States,
by the Israelis, was in an apparent retaliation for a number
of actions taken against them by United States Intelligence Organizations,
and that included one of the largest illegal drug discoveries
the world has ever known, and as we can see as reported by the
Australian News Service Evening Standard in their article titled
"World's
biggest ecstasy haul found in Australia", and which
says;
- "Police
in Australia have made what is believed to be the world's biggest
ecstasy seizure. Drugs squad officers found more than five million
tablets with an estimated street value of more than $100 million
on Melbourne's waterfront."
- Not known to these Western peoples is that many of the worlds
Intelligence Organizations are funded by the sale of illegal
drugs, and to Israel’s Mossad has always been the selling
of the drug Ecstasy, and as we can read by British FFP News Service
in their article titled "Israeli
Drug Smugglers' Global Monopoly On Ecstasy", and which
says; "Authorities
say Israeli crime groups have for several years had a virtual
monopoly on global distribution of Ecstasy..."
- Also angering Israel was the American decision to exclude
them from participation in one of the most ambitious aircraft
projects of this new century, the new American Joint Strike Fighter,
and as we can read as reported by the Jerusalem Post in their
article titled "US
dumps Israel from jet development", and which says;
- "The
Defense Ministry is downplaying reports from Washington that
it was so angry over Israeli arms transfers to China that it
suspended Israel from participating in the development of the
prestigious JSF fighter. United States Defense officials,
quoted by Reuters, said over the weekend that Israeli representatives
were no longer invited to participate in discussions about the
design of the Joint Strike Fighter, known as the F-35, the next-generation
warplane."
- Even more to showing the deep divisions that have arisen
between these once stalwart allies was the recent summit between
the American President and his Israeli counterpart, and as described
by the Jewish Press News Service in their article titled "Grim
Faces, Diplomatic Phrases At Bush-Sharon Texas Summit",
and which says;
- "The
meeting Monday between Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and
President Bush at Bush`s vast Texas ranch was to have affirmed
the special U.S.-Israel relationship and paved the way forward
in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, a triumphant summit
between two friends, farmers and statesmen. Instead, what emerged
between the tense lines the two men delivered as a stiff Texas
breeze ruffled their scripts were profound differences over how
Sharon and Bush perceive Israeli and Palestinian obligations
and the future of the peace process. Bush
made his position clear: Israel`s settlement
expansion in the West Bank must stop."
- But in an action that has taken by surprise all of the world’s
leaders, Israel after this summit actually betrayed the United
States, and as we can read as reported by the Big News Network
in their article titled "Israel
defies Bush, calls tenders for new West Bank homes",
and which says; "The
Israeli government called for tenders on Monday to construct
fifty new homes for settlers in the West Bank. The move comes
just days after U.S. President George W Bush told Israeli Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon to stop expanding settlements."
- Known to the world, but not to the vast numbers of American
citizens, have been the many contradictions surrounding the infamous
attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, and
the apparent knowledge, or at worst complicity, of the Israelis
Intelligence Organizations. Equally well known throughout the
world has been the knowledge of what the Americans reaction would
be against Israel should these suspicions ever be proved.
- To the American President, and his government, there would
also be an unprecedented backlash from the American religious
peoples against them should they ever dare to attack Israel,
as these peoples regard Israel as a special country protected
by God.
- But even to knowing that by attacking Israel they would bring
upon themselves the wrath of their own citizens, the recent attack
by Israel upon the Prime Minister of New Zealand by Israelis
Intelligence Operatives have proved once again that no world
leader is safe from their attacks, and as we can read as reported
by the American ABC News Service in their article titled “New
Zealand Official's Plane Door Opens", and which says;
- "The
door to a plane carrying New Zealand's prime minister blew open
mid-flight on Wednesday, forcing the pilot into a sharp descent
and emergency landing that left the leader badly bruised, but
otherwise unharmed. Prime Minister Helen Clark,
said she knew her life was in danger as air rushed into the cabin
of the twin-engine Piper Aztec, which was en route to the capital,
Wellington, from the tourism town of Rotorua
in central North Island. "When the plane plunges like that
obviously it is quite shocking. And then when you see the door
can't close you know that it is a serious incident. But I had
full confidence in the way the pilot handled the matter."
The officers "were strong enough to hold the door during
the landing," she told National Radio. "We couldn't
shut it."
- Unknown to the vast majority of Americans has been the extreme
anger against New Zealand by Israel because of that countries
being one of the only countries of the world to have withstood
themselves against the Israelis and not only had charged their
Intelligence Operatives with crimes, but had jailed them also,
and has also broken off diplomatic ties, and as we can read as
reported by the Jewish News Service in their article titled "Top
Israeli official barred", and which says;
- "A
top Israeli general was barred from entering New Zealand. Maj.
Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, the deputy chief of military staff, called
off a visit to Auckland on behalf of the United Israel Appeal
this month after being refused a visa, the New Zealand Herald
said Tuesday. The
daily quoted officials as saying the decision
was part of New Zealand's suspension of diplomatic ties
with Jerusalem in response to two suspected Israeli spies who
tried to acquire New Zealand passports fraudulently last year."
- The Israeli Newspaper Jerusalem Post has further commented
on these events by saying, "Last
spring, New Zealand accused Israelis Uriel
Kelman and Eli Cara of being Mossad agents,
sentencing them to six months in prison after they pleaded guilty
to attempting to illegally acquire a New Zealand passport."
- We must also always be reminded as to the extent of the Israeli
Intelligence Organizations constant efforts to use passports
as weapons of war, even to their using their own diplomats to
sell Israeli passports to known terrorists seeking to enter the
United States, and as we can see as reported by the Israeli Newspaper
Haaretz in their article titled "Israeli
consul to The Hague arrested for selling passports",
and which says;
- "Israel's
consul general to The Hague was arrested Tuesday evening as he
arrived in Israel for a visit on suspicion of accepting bribes.
The arrest was the culmination of an extensive investigation
into allegations that Yitzhaki, 56,
accepted cash and perks in exchange for issuing Israeli passports
to people who were not entitled to them."
- Not known to the American people also is that the present
leader of Israel, Ariel Sharon, is an International War Criminal
who has only managed to escape punishment because of his position,
and as we can see as reported by the British Newspaper Guardian
Unlimited in their article titled "Sharon
is war criminal says Livingstone", and which says;
- "Ariel
Sharon, Israel's prime minister, is a war criminal who should
be in prison not in office. Israel's own Kahan
commission found that Sharon shared responsibility for the Sabra
and Shatila [Palestinian refugee camps in Beirut]
massacre."
- Both Russian and French Intelligence Services have long reported
that the stranglehold held over the United States by Israel has
been the ability of Israel to collapse the economy of the United
States and as this weeks event in the Philippines has shown.
But with the American Presidents signing of these new Executive
Orders there appears to be no stopping the global chaos about
to engulf the entire world, and over one single country, Israel
.
- Never in the history of the world have so many nations, and
with so much awesome power, been prepared to vent their wrath
against a single nation.
- That nation is Israel, and today the entire world stands
before the abyss of a global war the likes we have never seen.May
God have mercy on all of us.

- WORLD OF ELECTRONIC TRADING TRANSFORMING 212-YEAR OLD NEW
YORK STOCK EXCHANGE INTO PUBLICLY-TRADED COMPANY - WALL STREET
TO BECOME PAST HISTORY
- Langone, according to some of the CEOs
who spoke to him, is angry that investment bank Goldman Sachs
Group (Research) took the rare step of acting as advisor
to both Archipelago and the NYSE, a move many on Wall Street
believe to be a conflict. He also thinks Archipelago (Research)
is worth more than the NYSE is offering -- 30 percent of a new
company that NYSE seatholders will get the rest of.
Now, Langone is considering mounting a counteroffer for Archipelago.
It is too early to say how much support Langone's bid will get.
However, if the chairman of investment firm Invemed Associates
LLC manages to secure serious financial backing, it could threaten
the proposed merger of the NYSE and Archipelago, a deal
that if approved by regulators will transform the 212-year- old
NYSE into a publicly-traded company and push its largely human-based
trading floor head first into the world of electronic trading.

- ORIGIN OF ANTI SEMITISM
- The Riddle of Anti Semitism - by Henry Makow Ph.D September
26, 2004 - It should come as no surprise that the people who
own and control the world have put their interests before the
greater good of humanity. For at least 400 years, Christian civilization
has been under covert attack by a diabolical multi generational
program now called the "New World Order", "globalization"
or "world government." Essentially globalization represents
the consolidation of absolute economic, political and cultural
power in the hands of a cabal of super rich dynastic families
(bankers and their vast corporate networks) headquartered in
the City of London. The UN, IMF and World Bank are some of their
instruments.
- These families include the Rothschilds, Warburgs and other
so-called Jews who have intermarried with Anglo American and
European aristocracy. This mirrors the collaboration between
the moneylenders and kings in the Middle Ages when the Jew shared
the proceeds from his lucrative business with the king. The New
World Order resurrects the feudal relationship between an aristocracy
based on great wealth and a large serfdom. These families have
embraced Freemasonry, an occult secret society that worships
Lucifer. The top rank of this cabal is called the "Illuminati."
- The Illuminati uses anti Semitism to manipulate Jews and
others. Jews figure prominently in Illuminati sponsored movements
such as Communism, Zionism, Socialism, Liberalism, Feminism,
and Neo Conservatism. Most of these Jews are ambitious or idealistic
dupes who think they are building a secular utopia based on reason
and not a world police state straight out of George Orwell's
"1984". The Illuminati strategy is divide and rule,
i.e. get their enemies to destroy each other. For example they
set up Communism to attract opponents of private property. They
set up Nazism for people who champion nation and race, and hate
"Jewish" hegemony. Then they attacked each other. Read

- BACK TO THE WILD WEST GUNSLINGING, PEOPLE TAKING THE LAW
INTO THEIR OWN HANDS!
- FLORIDA EXPANDS RIGHT TO USE DEADLY FORCE IN SELF-DEFENSE
- New York Times Published: April 27, 2005 - MIAMI, April 26
- Gov. Jeb Bush signed a bill on Tuesday giving Florida citizens
more leeway to use deadly force in their homes and in public,
a move that gun-control groups and several urban police chiefs
warned would give rise to needless deaths. The measure, known
as the "stand your ground" bill, lets people use guns
or other deadly force to defend themselves in public places without
first trying to escape. Floridians already had the right to defend
themselves against home intruders under what is known as the
castle doctrine, but until now, they could not do so in public.
The National Rifle Association lobbied hard for the bill's
passage, and Wayne LaPierre, the group's executive vice president,
said it would use the victory to push for similar measures elsewhere.
The bill's sponsor, Representative Dennis K. Baxley of Ocala,
said it would curb violent crime and make citizens feel safer.
"It's a clear position that we will stand with victims of
violent attacks when the law is in their favor," said Mr.
Baxley, a Republican. "People want to know we stand on the
side of victims of crime instead of the side of criminals."
.. But John F. Timoney, Miami's police chief, called the bill
unnecessary and dangerous. Chief Timoney, who has successfully
pushed his police officers to use less deadly force, said many
people, including children, could become innocent victims. The
bill could make gun owners, including drivers with road rage
or drunken sports fans who get into fights leaving ball games,
assume they have "total immunity," he said... Chief
Chuck Harmon of the St. Petersburg police and Sheriff Ken Jenne
of Broward County also publicly opposed the bill. The Florida
House of Representatives voted 94 to 20 in favor of the bill
earlier this month, while the Senate passed it 39 to
0. Read on: http://www.cephas-library.com/nwo/nwo_jeb_bush_new_gun_law_about_votes.html

- PAYMENTS TO HELP HOSPITALS CARE FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
NYT by Robert Pear, May 10, 2005 - WASHINGTON, May 9 - The Bush
administration announced on Monday that it would start paying
hospitals and doctors for providing emergency care to illegal
immigrants. The money, totaling $1 billion, will be available
for services provided from Tuesday through September 2008. Congress
provided the money as part of the 2003 law that expanded Medicare
to cover prescription drugs, but the new payments have nothing
to do with the Medicare program...
Under the new program, hospitals are supposed to ask patients
for certain documents to substantiate claims for payment. But
Dr. Mark B. McClellan, administrator of the Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services, said a hospital should not directly ask
a patient "if he or she is an undocumented alien."
Instead, Dr. McClellan said, hospitals can try to establish a
patient's status by analyzing the answers to "indirect questions":
Is the person eligible for Medicaid? (If so, payment is generally
not available under the new program.) Has the person reported
a foreign place of birth? Does the person have a border-crossing
card like those issued to Mexican citizens? Does the person have
a foreign passport, a foreign driver's license or a foreign identification
card? "In no circumstances are hospitals required to ask
people about their citizenship status," Dr. McClellan said
on Monday...

- THE 'CASTLE DOCTRINE' IS CONSIDERED A MODEL FOR THE NATION
- Pro-gun activists have nicknamed the new law the "Castle
Doctrine," which also provides protection against criminal
prosecution and civil litigation for those citizens who use force
to defend themselves against criminals. ...
Considered a model for the nation, gun opponents intended to
take the measure from state to state, the argument being that
no reasonable person would seek to buy more than one gun per
year -- let alone per month. That changed, however, during Virginia's
1993 gubernatorial race when the pro-gun-control candidate, Democrat
Attorney General Mary Sue Terry, saw her almost 20-point lead
in the polls evaporate after Republican George Allen decided
to propose abolishing parole. Asked to choose between being tougher
on guns or tougher on convicted criminals, Virginia voters chose
the latter and elected Allen in a landslide. http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=e89a1f64b97db56a

April 24, 2005 George W Bush's brother says the US president
recognises the importance of a moral voice in world affairs and
plans to develop a close relationship with Pope Benedict XVI.
He says the new pope has the same qualities as his predecessor
John Paul II, who'd led what he said was spectacular papacy.
Jeb Bush says the meetings were more than just symbolism. He
says they reflected the importance the president granted to the
Holy See and his recognition of the importance of a moral voice
in world affairs.
- Apr-26-2005 Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said: "I was also
moved by how thousands of faithful came from all across the globe
to join the pope as he began his journey," added Bush, who
became a Catholic in 1996. Bush was selected by his brother,
President George W. Bush, to lead the official U.S. delegation.
Other members were Steele, a former Augustinian seminarian; Carl
A. Anderson, supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus; Helen

- JEB BUSH OFFERS TO ADOPT POPE JOHN PAUL II BEFORE HIS DEATH
TALLAHASSEE, Florida — Jeb Bush has petitioned a Florida
court for permission to take the Pope into his custody. I don’t
want the Cardinals to pull the plug on the Pope,” said the
Governor, in an emotional address on a local talk-back radio
show. A Circuit Court judge denied the petition. Bush has appealed
the judge’s ruling to Court TV. The same judge also rejected
an affidavit, submitted by Florida authorities, from a Florida
doctor who argued that the ailing Pope, who had a tracheotomy,
could really speak but was being muzzled by ambitious Cardinals
eager to maintain their hold on power at the Vatican by keeping
him alive and in a persistent, quiet state. The doctor said he
had not examined the Pope but had seen recent footage of him
on TV. The affidavit charged the Cardinals with wanting to forestall
an election for a new Pope who might choose different Cardinals
to run the Holy See. The judge ruled that the affidavit was premature,
saying, “We’ll have to wait and see.” Julio Cesar

- ONLY ONE MORE POPE?
- April 18, 2005 - According to a prophecy made in the 12th
century, there would be only 112 popes left. Whoever is elected
Pope in the next few days will be the 111th. After that, according
to the prophecy, there will be just one more pope. And then Rome
-- and the Catholic church -- will be wiped out. In the words
of the prediction, 'the city of seven hills shall be destroyed,
and the dreadful Judge shall judge the people.'
- The man who made this prediction was St Malachy, an Irish
bishop and clairvoyant. While on a visit to Rome, St Malachy
is said to have fallen into a trance and seen a vision of all
the popes to come. Writing in the year 1139, he described each
of them in a single, sometimes cryptic, but ultimately apt, Latin
phrase. And so far he has been remarkably -- even eerily –
accurate. Read on: http://www.rediff.com/news/2005/apr/18anvar.htm

- ROYALTY RUNS COUNTRIES TO THIS DAY
- The Bush bloodline includes a long line of pharaohs in ancient
Egypt, including Rameses II (1295-1228 BC), who is considered
to be the greatest pharaoh of all. He was his country's master
architect (sacred geometry) and his name can be found on almost
every ancient shrine... One common link in this bloodline is
Philip of Macedonia (382-336BC),who married Olympias, and their
son was Alexander the Great (356-323BC).. This key bloodline
comes down through the most famous Egyptian queen, Cleopatra
(60-30BC), who married the most famous Roman Emperor, Julius
Caesar, and bore him a son, who became Ptolemy XIV... the same
bloodline includes Constantine the Great, the Roman Emperor who,
in 325AD.. and King Ferdinand of Spain and Queen Isabella of
Castile, the sponsors of Christopher Columbus... This bloodline
also includes the Habsburgs, the most powerful family in Europe
under the Holy Roman Empire; Geoffrey Plantagenet and the Plantagenet
royal dynasty in England; King John, who signed the Magna Carta;
King Henry Ist, II, and III, who were extremely close to the
Knights Templar, as was King John; Mary Stuart and the Stuart
Dynasty, including King James Ist of England, sponsor of the
King James version of the Bible; King George Ist, II, and III;
Edward Ist, II, and III, Queen Victoria; Edward VII; George V
and VI; Queen Elizabeth II; Prince Charles and Elizabeth's other
offspring, Anne, Andrew and Edward; Princes William and Harry
from Charles' "marriage" to Princess Diana; US Presidents,
George Washington, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Thomas Jefferson,
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and George Bush are all named in the
charts as strands of this bloodline; it was passed on to the
year 2000 US presidential favorite, George W. Bush Jr., and his
brother, Jeb Bush, the Governor of Florida.... This bloodline
connects into every surviving royal family in Europe, including
King Juan Carlos of Spain and the Dutch, Swedish, and Danish
royal lines. [http://www.davidicke.com/icke/articles/bush3.html

- THE ANCESTRY IS CONFIRMED BY GENEALOGIST
- Ingeborg Brigitte Gastel states: The White House Connection:
Historic and genealogical information about U.S. Presidents and
Vice Presidents of royal descent in my family.. http://worldroots.com/brigitte/famous/g/georgbushanc1946.htm
/ http://worldroots.com/brigitte/royal/royal11.htm
- BLUE BLOOD FROM BOTH PATERNAL AND MATERNAL LINES
- Bush has more ties to European royalty than other president
to date, having “blue blood” from both his paternal
and maternal lines. His mother, Barbara Pierce Bush, is related
to European royalty through the Pierce family, which also produced
the fourteenth U.S. president, Franklin Pierce (1853-1857). Harold
Brooks-Baker of London’s Burke Peerage says Bush’s
royal connections are startling. “Bush is closely related
to every European monarch both on and off the throne,” Baker
told American Free Press. “They are cousins.” Baker
said when asked about the relationship between Bush and the Bulgarian
prime minister, Simeon Saxe-Coburg Gotha, who visited the White
House on Feb. 25. Gotha is the former King of Bulgaria who was
returned to power after decades spent in exile. About the apparent
close relationship between Bush and the Spanish king, Juan Carlos,
Baker said: “They know they are related.” Asked why
the media fails to report these family ties, Brooks-Baker said,
“The American public does not know who these kings are.
Not one person in a thousand has any idea who these people are.”
There has always been a significant “royalty factor”
in those who aspired to the White House, with Presidents George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Franklin and Theodore Roosevelt
and Ronald Reagan, among some 30 other presidents, all boasting
blue blood links.
- Asked if the support of the European royals for Bush’s
war policy could be attributed to the fact that these families
are heavily invested in the leading oil companies, Brooks-Baker
said, “That’s an interesting question. Indeed, Royal
Dutch Shell petroleum made Queen Beatrix of Holland one of the
richest women in the world. She owns more land in New York and
the United States than any other foreigner.” Queen Beatrix,
the matriarch of the secretive Bilderberg group, is like Queen
Elisabeth of Britain and is not allowed to play a public role
in political matters. Behind the scenes, however, these monarchs
continue to exercise political influence.

of gas soared to over $200 [might as well have], gas station
operators have begun to accept body parts in exchange for the
valuable auto fuel. "I'd give my right arm to get some gas"
had already become the new rallying cry of the downtrodden middle
class when a BP station franchiser posted a sign saying ‘Will
trade limbs for High Test.’ "Most Americans are bankrupt,
but now you can't even declare it," said Abu Bu, the BP
owner who is Turkish and in a former career portrayed the malicious
prison guard in Midnight Express, set in his homeland. "If
I'm going to stay open, I need capital and Americans don't have
any left. So, I'm going old school, you know, Ottoman Empire-style,
and trading gas for bones, muscle and fat below the shoulder.
I can sell that to medical schools.

- EXECUTION TODAY - GOVERNOR 'THOUGHT ABOUT' STAY TO HONOR
THE POPE JOHN PAUL II
- GAINESVILLE, Fl., April 5 /Florida Wire Service/ -- Florida
Governor Jeb Bush this morning told reporters that he had considered
staying this evenings scheduled execution of Glen Ocha to honor
the memory of the Pope, but that he decided not to. Ocha (pronounced
"O'Shea"), who has legally changed his name to Raven
Raven, is a suicidal and mentally ill man who waived his appeals
and is scheduled for execution at 6pm today in revenge for his
murder of Carol Skjerva. Floridians for Alternatives to the Death
Penalty (FADP) calls on Governor Jeb Bush to reverse himself
and stop the state-assisted suicide of Glen Ocha. "Instead
of honoring Pope John Paul II, Governor Bush has today chosen
to mock him," said FADP Director Abe Bonowitz. The Pope
has been outspoken about the value of all life, and repeatedly
called for an end to the use of the death penalty.
- "Governor Bush, a convert to Catholicism, has clearly
demonstrated that he is willing to inject his religion and personal
beliefs into his politics," said Bonowitz, referring to
Bush's political actions on abortion and the Schiavo case. "He
has pushed through unconstitutional legislation to try to codify
his beliefs on the sanctity of life. Governor Bush's claim that
he is only carrying out the law when he executes prisoners simply
reeks of hypocrisy. As Terry Schiavo is mourned this evening,
Glen Ocha gets his wish: Suicide-by-Governor." .. If this
killing goes forward.. the 17th under Governor Jeb Bush, and
Bush's eighth assisted-suicide. http://www.fadp.org/Florida_executions.html.

- JEB CHALLENGES RULING RE BRAIN-DAMAGED WOMAN
NewsMax Wires -TALLAHASSEE, Fla Oct. 5, 2004 - Gov. Jeb Bush
will ask the Florida Supreme Court to reconsider its 7-0 ruling
against a law designed to keep a brain-damaged woman alive, a
spokesman said Monday. Florida's high court ruled two weeks ago
that Bush and state lawmakers overstepped their authority with
the year-old law ordering that Terri Schiavo's feeding tube be
reinserted six days after her husband had it removed so she could
die. Since a judge had heard evidence in the case and ruled for
the husband, the law violated the fundamental doctrine of separation
of powers in the Florida Constitution, the Supreme Court ruled.
Bush said in statement Monday that he respected the "role
and the judgment of the Florida Supreme Court" but that
he feared the Schiavo ruling could limit the ability of state
lawmakers to govern. He also said that while the doctrine of
separation of powers is critical to the state's system of government
it shouldn't be used to undercut the due process rights of governors
or lawmakers... She suffered severe brain damage when her heart
stopped beating from a chemical imbalance physicians said was
brought on by an eating disorder. She left no written directive
but her husband has argued she would want the feeding tube removed,
a point disputed by her parents. Some doctors have testified
she is in a persistent vegetative state with no hope for recovery;
her parents have countered with their own medical experts who
believe she might have a chance at rehabilitation. © 2004

- GET READY FOR A NATIONAL ID - AS EARLY AS NEXT MONTH
- April 28, 2005 - by James W. Harris - Senate Ponders Police-State
National ID Bill. In February the U.S. House of Representatives
voted 261-161 to send H.R. 418, the "REAL ID Act of 2005,"
to the Senate. All but 8 Republicans supported the bill; three-quarters
of Democrats opposed it. House Republicans then attached the
REAL ID proposal to an almost-certain-to-pass emergency spending
bill for military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, thus allowing
it to bypass the usual legislative hearings and debate. The Senate
is expected to pass the bill. And the REAL ID is strongly backed
by the Bush administration. The REAL ID Act essentially turns
state drivers' licenses into national ID cards, with extraordinary
powers. Ominously, the bill gives authority to the Secretary
of Homeland Security to unilaterally add additional information
requirements. Here are some details:
- * The REAL ID Act would establish a vast centrally-coordinated
national database of ID holders and their personal information,
including, for starters, name, date of birth, place of residence,
Social Security number, photograph, physical description and
possibly much more. Far more information could be required at
the Secretary of Homeland Security's wish.
- * The ID would essentially be an internal passport that would
have to be shown before buying a gun from a dealer, or accessing
planes, trains, national parks, court houses, etc. It will be
impossible to function normally in America without it.
- * The national database would be shared with Canada and Mexico.
"There are no limits on what happens to the database of
sensitive information on Americans once it leaves the United
States for Canada and Mexico -- or perhaps other countries,"
said libertarian Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX), who denounced the
bill in Congress....

"... In addition, aspartame-caused headaches are often part
of many symptoms linked to aspartame use: "A 68-y-old female
respondent developed nausea, vomiting and diarrhea after using
15 mL (one tablespoon) of a popular aspartame-flavored powdered
laxative twice daily for several months. There was concomitant
decreased vision and pain in both eyes, impaired hearing, marked
sensitivity to noise in both ears, severe headaches, dizziness
and unsteadiness (at times requiring assistance while walking),
intense drowsiness, tremors, depression and itching. Her symptoms
disappeared several weeks after she stopped using this and other
aspartame products, and had not recurred when she completed the
questionnaire." (Roberts 1988) "A 39-year-old white
female complained of depression, memory loss, lethargy, irritability,
dizziness, and headaches. The complainant's first use of aspartame-containing
products was in March 1983, when she began using approximately
8 packs on Equal per day. During the symptomatic interval, the
complainant added other aspartame-containing products to he diet,
including Diet Coke and Kool Aid. The symptoms started in mid-April
and increased in number and intensity in subsequent months. the
first symptom to occur was lethargy. Over the ensuing months,
irritability, dizziness, depression, and memory loss occurred.
She states that when she stopped using aspartame-containing products
in mid-September following a news report, the symptoms improved
within 1 day and ceased within 1 week. The complainant subsequently
re challenged herself approximately 2 months later with Equal,
consuming 4 packets per day for approximately 3 days... Read
