Papal Suit

The president of the Muslim Union of Italy, Adel Smith, has filed suit against
Pope John Paul II, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, and other Catholic church
officials. According to an AP story, the suit charges that the defendants
violated Italy's Constitution (which declares all religions equal under law)
in several of their writings, including the Pope's book "Crossing the Threshold
of Hope." Smith claims the works in question are advocating the Christian
holybook over others (Koran) and Catholic superiority regarding salvation
compared to the other religions which are "gravely deficient."  

-----------------

Bio-Logical?

The U.N.'s 'Cartagena Protocol' now requires that global shipments of
bio-engineered food/seeds be accompanied by much more detailed information
on their identity papers. This additional information would allow countries
better data to decideThe UN protocol, ratified by 86 countries, also mandated
the creation of a council to work out the details of global 'liability' which
will provide legal avenue for claims of health or environment contaminations
that comeabout by GMO's[genetically-modified organisms].

The United States, the largest exporter of GM foods worldwide, never signed
the protocol so they were not allowed to vote. The U.S. claimed that global
trade would be hindered rather than helped by the protocol. The U.N. hopes
to have fully active global trade rules for biologically altered foods by
late 2005.

Illegal Gay Unions

More government officials are popping up across the country and illegally
'marrying' same-sex 'couples.' Even though some of the perpetrators who break
the law of God and man by performing this 'joining' face criminal prosecution
they say they will not cease. From Portland, Oregon to New Paltz, New York
and from SanFrancisco California to Boston Massachussets the homosexual agenda
is beginning to show its entrenchment into our government and media.

Gay marriage already is legal in Canada, Belgium and the Netherlands and
may become legal in Massachusetts in May. Homosexual men and women have
infiltrated into media as well as into political, public, and even religious
offices of power. They are not many compared to the overall population but
they are loud and proud giving impression that countless millions are like
them. This nation will face grave calamities if men and women do not return
to God and put down the rebellion of sin that runs rampant in this country
- yea even the world.

Romans 1:26-32 For this cause God gave them up unto
vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that
which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use
of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working
that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their
error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which
are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit,
malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding,
covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who
knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy
of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Praying for Others

In the day's of Israel's temple the High Priest once every year, on the Day
of Atonement, entered the Holiest of Holies to offer a sacrifice for the
sins of the people.  To intercede in this way was one of his main
responsibilities, and it signified that the way to God was not yet open to
all without the assistance of a priest. (Hebrews 9)

The Levitical Priesthood of the Old Testament no longer exists, for it was
replaced by the High Priesthood of Jesus Christ.  It is he who intercedes
on our behalf with the Father.  But the Scriptures also teach (I Peter
2:5, 9) that God's people are all a Royal Priesthood.  And if that's
the case, then our role must also be one of interceding for others before
God.

Some time back a devout friend who had just lost her husband spoke to me
about the great appreciation she had for her prayer partners.  "They
have held me up before God," she said.  It was an expression that sounded
good, but I never understood it fully until facing trials of my own, and
later having the lesson reinforced in speaking with others about their
experiences in facing trials.  The lesson relates directly to the role
of the Royal Priesthood.

When I'm sick, I just want to be left alone to suffer in peace.  I don't
even want to pray, or at least I find it difficult to do so.  It is
then that I need someone to pray for me, to "lift me up before God", as it
were.  And when I say "pray for me",  I don't mean just making
mention of me in their prayers; I mean praying for me in the sense of praying
in my place in the same way that I would pray for myself.  The members
of the Royal Priesthood would intercede on my behalf, praying in place of
my own groanings when I cannot pray as I should.  There is strength
and honor in that type of prayer, and it builds a bond that is not easily
broken.

Before the ancient priest offered a sacrifice for, or if you will, on behalf
of the people, he needed to be worthy to stand before God, for God will not
abide in the presence of sin.  So before sacrificing for the people,
the priest first had to offer a sacrifice for himself so that he could 
be pure in the presence of God.  It is the same with us today who are
part of the Royal Priesthood.  Before praying on behalf of others, we
must first be purged of our transgressions.  We should ask God to forgive
us for who we are and the sins we have committed.  Then we can approach
the throne and offer sacrifice for others.  That is our job, and one
that we should relish. Lenny C.

He officiated at marriages and funerals, and lectured. Thirty-one years to
the day after his 'conversion', the man who was once a professor of Greek
and Latin, Garfield took the oath of office as 20th President of the United
States. He served a brief term of office only two hundred days. It took Garfield
11 weeks to die after being shot by the 'apparently crazed' assassin Charles
Guiteau on July 2, 1881. In the inset brief, TOTW adds further research into
the stories that follow this man.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HISTORY INSET ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Garfield had secretly became Grand Orient of the French Illuminati and spent
much time in Europe as in America. The Jewish Talmud was used as the Holy
Book for prayer and incantation in the lodge where Garfield reportedly called
Beelzebub the "Masonry Spirit." In December 1863, at the request of President
Abraham Lincoln, Garfield resigned as General and ran for Congress. In Paris,
the American General James Abram Garfield, the Grand Orient of the Supreme
Lodge of Illuminati of France, reputedly raped a young lady named Klotilde
Bersone. The girl, who was already a virtual slave of the Grand illuminati
Lodge, became his mistress. Klotilde Bersone rose to power in the lodges
and became known to Masons as "Nymph of the Night," "Nymph Initiated to Secrets,"
"Sovereign Grand Master Nymph", and then "Bride of Lucifer" or "Queen of
the Illuminati" in the multi-lodge gathering of the Grand Lodge of the Illuminati
in Istanbul, Turkey. Garfield was elected to the Senate in January 1880,
but never served in that office as he was always absent in Paris with Masonic
business. Illuminati Lodges modeled him to win the presidency. Garfield was
elected President of the U.S. in March 1881 and was shot on July 2, 1881
by Charles Guiteau of France at the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad Station
in Washington D.C. Klotilde Bersone, the Nymph of Satan and Queen of the
Illuminati, became powerful - alledgedly even issuing orders to the Lodges
to kill or to take actions. She reputedly committed many murders under the
order of the Lodges and among the murdered victims was General James Garfield.
The charge was that he had violated the rules of the Lodges by loving Klotilde,
the bride of demon Beelzebub, and taking her as his mistress, thereby putting
personal interest before the Lodges' interest. The assassination of Garfield
was told to be assisted by Prince Otto Eduard Leopold Von Bismark, the Chancellor
of Germany. Bismark was also a Mason who provided the Paris Lodge with documents
to show that Garfield committed treason against Masonry. This attack on Garfield
was Bismark's revenge for the brutal knifing of Zemard, one of his Knights
of Kadosch, who was sacrificed to the demon Beelzebub at the Paris Lodge.
Garfield was expected to fully recover after being dismissed from the hospital.
On August 11, while recuperating in a seaside cottage he wrote to his mother
that he was recovering well and growing stronger every day. He signed it
"Your loving son." Yet strange as it be - he died, apparently from medical
mistreatment, on September 19, 1881. "Garfield's death," states the 1987
book Medical Cover-Ups in the White House, "included all of the worst elements
that could be found in a presidential medical crisis: faulty diagnosis, grossly
improper treatment, prideful bickering among doctors and a massive cover-up
of the truth before and after death." Upon his arrest, Guiteau was carrying
a letter addressed to the White House, which read: "I have just shot the
President. I shot him several times, as I wished him to go as easily as possible.
His death was a political necessity. I am a lawyer, theologian and politician.
I am a Stalwart of the Stalwarts. I was with General Grant and the rest of
our men, in New York during the canvass. I am going to jail. Please order
out your troops, and take possession of the jail at once" (Rosenberg, p.
5). Though Guiteau had practiced law, his training and experience were minimal.
His claim to be a theologian rested on his having tried itinerant preaching
as a means of earning a living and upon having self-published a book on religion.
At his trial, Charles Guiteau, shouted, "Your honor, I admit to the shooting
of the president, but not the killing. ... I plead not guilty to the indictment
and my defense is threefold: 1. Insanity, in that it was God's act and not
mine. The Divine pressure on me to remove the president was so enormous that
it destroyed my free agency, and therefore I am not legally responsible for
my act. 2. The president died from malpractice ... if he had been well treated
he would have recovered. ..... I am ... charged with maliciously and wickedly
murdering one James A. Garfield. Nothing can be more absurd, because General
Garfield died from malpractice ... the issue here is Who fired that shot;
the Deity or me?"

Grace   [DRAMA sent in by Randy Peoples-
thanks brother. Author unknown. Modified for this
publication.]

The boy stood with back arched, head cocked back and hands clenched defiantly.
"Go ahead, give it to me."  The principal looked down at the young rebel.
"How many times have you been here?"  The child sneered rebelliously,
"Apparently not enough."  The principal gave the boy a strange look.
"And you have been punished each time have you not?" "Yeah, I been punished,
if that's what you want to call it." He threw out his small chest, "Go ahead
I can take whatever you dish out. I always have." 

"And no thought of your punishment enters your head the next time you decide
to break the rules does it?," the Principal inquired. The boy replied,
"Nope, I do whatever I want to do. Ain't nothin' you people gonna do to stop
me either."  The principal looked over at the teacher who stood nearby.
"What did he do this time?"  Teacher: "Fighting. He took little Tommy
and shoved his face into the sandbox." The principal turned to look
at the boy, "Why? What did little Tommy do to you?"  The boy through
clenched teeth said, "Nothin'. I didn't like the way he was lookin' at me,
just like I don't like the way you're lookin' at me!  And if I thought
I could do it, I'd shove your face into something."

The teacher stiffened and started to rise but a quick look from the principal
stopped him. He contemplated the child for a moment and then quietly said,
"Today my young student, is the day you learn about grace."  The lad
sneered, "Grace? Isn't that what you old people do before you sit down to
eat?  I don't need none of your stinkin' grace." 

"Oh but you do." The principal studied the young mans face and whispered.
"Oh yes, you truly do..."  The boy continued to glare as the principal
continued, "Grace, in its short definition is unmerited favor. You cannot
earn it, it is a gift and is always freely given. It means that you will
not be getting what you so richly deserve." 

The boy looked puzzled. "You're not gonna whup me? You just gonna let me
walk?"  The principal looked down at the unyielding child. "Yes, I am
going to let you walk." The boy studied the face of the principal, "No punishment
at all?  Even though I socked Tommy and shoved his face into the
sandbox?"  The head of the school answered, "Oh, there has to be punishment.
What you did was wrong and there are always consequences to our actions.
There will be punishment. Grace is not an excuse for doing wrong." 
"I knew it," Sneered the boy as he held out his hands. "Lets get on with
it." 

The principal nodded toward the teacher. "Bring me the paddle." The teacher
presented the paddle to the principal. He looked at it and then handed it
back to the teacher.  He looked at the child and said.  "I want
you to count the blows."  He slidout from behind his desk and walked
over to stand directly in front of the young man. He gently reached out and
folded the child's outstretched, expectant hands together and then turned
to face the teacher with his own hands outstretched. One quiet word came
forth from his mouth.  "Begin."  The paddle whipped down on the
outstretched hands of the principal. - -Crack!  -- The young man jumped
ten feet in the air. Shock registered across his face. "One" he
whispered.   -- Crack! -- "Two." His voice raised an octave. 
--Crack!  -- "Three..." He couldn't believe this.  -- Crack! --
"Four." Big tears welled up in the eyes of the rebel. "OK stop! That's enough.
Stop!"  -- Crack --...came the paddle down on the callused hands of
the principal.  -- Crack! -- The child flinched with each blow, tears
beginning to stream down his face.  --Crack! -- Crack!-- "No please,"
the former rebel begged, "Stop, I did it, I'm the one who deserves it. Stop!
Please. Stop..."  Still the blows came...-- Crack! Crack! --- One after
another. Finally it was over. The principal stood with sweat glistening across
his forehead and beads trickling down his face. Slowly he knelt down. He
studied the young man for a second and then his swollen hands reached out
to cradle the face of the weeping child.

"Grace," he said.

The Passion -  Reviewed [by Kenneth
M. Hoeck for E-Clipz - www.truthontheweb.org]

Hi all, I heard the arguments for and against this movie. Much of it is hype.
Many write without ever seeing what they are writing about. I do wonder how
one can critique a film without ever seeing it?

Proverbs 18:13 He that answereth a matter before he
heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

The comment some have made that the movie is actually 'a mass' is off a little
... but in another view not off so much as one would think. The catholic
mass is a re-crucifying of our Savior - per the Catholics themeselves. The
mass is, indeed, idolatry at its most guileful.

The movie, since it shows the crucifiction, can be likened to the Mass. No
doubt exists that when Mel sees it - he sees the Mass (in type - not in
substance). But, in the end, its a movie - not too different from any other
Passion Play ever seen. I saw the film after sabbath last Saturday night
- I did not, would not, and will not ever take part in a Catholic Mass I
assure you.

I spent some of the week prior and much of the day on the sabbath reading
and soaking myself in God's word. Our congregation read a harmony of the
gospels (created only from bible text) and then read from the individual
accounts. We wanted to be armed with the Sword of the Spirit for we did not
know what to expect. We prayed for God to protect our minds and faith from
any spiritual seductions in the film.

By Gods grace and diligent study of His Word, we knew the true story through
and through and easily spotted all the non-biblical additions of Mel and
the mystic Catholic sources he borrowed ideas from [such as The Dolorous
Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ by Anne Catherine Emmerich]. We knew before
going that the Jesuits had their hand in the film and sought to determine
their subtle influences to be able to sound a trumpet.

Hear is what I saw:

I saw much error [unbiblical content] mixed with truth - no suprise -its
the way of the apostate church.

I saw no mention of why Jesus endured this past the opening text from Isaiah
53:5.

I saw nothing to convict a sinner of sin. No reference to transgressions
of the law being sin. No heralding of the good news of the gospel after it
all.

For me the 'best' part, if I can even call it that, was after the soldier,
called Longinus by legend, pierced Him with a spear he fell to his knees
as if convicted that this was the Son of God. That was somewhat touching
to see a possible conviction of spirit.

I did see a better look at the brutality of the beating and crucifiction
than shown in most passion stories however I must say that even Mel's bloody
picture could not show the duration of the cruelty inflicted on Jesus.

I saw Mary very subtley being touted as 'sharing Christs suffering' and 'being
co-redemtrix.' [Satan is subtle most of the time and thats why his doctrines
can 'seduce.'] The disciples called her "Mother." As Mel said, the film 'is
very Marian.'

I had heard that after the film people wer shocked and dumb-struck. At the
end of the movie only one lady was crying - everyone else was expressionless
- maybe some felt numb. I do not think they were experiencing 'shock and
awe.' I felt the movie was empty.

I saw no 'anti-semitism' [except toward Jesus!]. Although not in the film,
Jesus said in the Gospels that nobody took His life. He said He willingly
submitted Himself for you and for me because He loved us and was obedient
to the Father.

John 10:17-18 Therefore doth my Father love me, because
I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me,
but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power
to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

I saw the evangelical Christians hyping the film more than the Catholics.
I saw a big budget film produced by one of Hollywood's biggest 'stars' as
having potential for great influence on people. The greatest horror I saw
was that the film is an ecumenical tool to unite denominations through service
without doctrinal foundations.

Another tragedy is that the film was in English subtitles. When they did
speak they uttered Latin, Hebrew, and Aramaic - they didn't even use Greek
which was the prevalent language of the land and the people. The story could
have been more poignant if the common language of America spoken today was
used. Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word
of God.

In the end I saw a not-so-good movie.

It was 'souless' if I may use that term without misleading. It did not carry
the fulness of the Gospel message but only the 'sufferings of Christ' probably
a flashback for Mel of the 'Stations of the Cross.' It was more a script
from The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ by Anne Catherine Emmerich
(old catholic mystic nun) than a retelling of a biblical account. It was
rife with additions to God's word and full of error. It wasn't a good movie
in my opinion.

Would I see the movie again? No, once was enough.

You know, they often say that a movie was not as good as the book that it
was [partially] culled from - it certainly is true in the case of The Passion.
I got much more understanding in the time I spent reading God's Word and
that is what I recommend His people also do. Stick to the true book.
Read the bible.

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy
word is truth.

Revelation 22:18-19 For I testify unto every man that
heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto
these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this
book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy,
God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy
city, and from the things which are written in this book.
