Scripture Reading:  Matthew 5:44-48

I don’t mean for the title to sound pretentious, but this is a Bible study on perfection.  To assuage any misapprehensions and to state my case early, I won’t be talking about sinless perfection, for “If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us” I John 1:10.  In today’s reading of Matthew, the point in question is not the sinlessness of God or His Creation of supernatural perfection, but rather our growth into a maturity of godliness; not to be Christ, but to be like Christ.  We’ve seen the bumper sticker ‘We’re not perfect – just forgiven.’  If we were perfect, there would be nothing to forgive.  So what does it mean to be perfect like God?  Do we become gods?  God forbid, that would be the deification of man and there is only one God in Christianity, “There is none else” (Isaiah 45:5).  Obviously, God knew the future and made the #1 commandment to preempt anyone, “Who is opposing and exalting himself above everything said to be a god” (II Thes. 2:4) with “Thou shalt have no other gods before Me” (Ex. 20:2).

Scripture Reading:  Isaiah 66:8

The united States began when God’s punishment upon Israel expired, if you believe the prophecy of 2520 years, otherwise known as ‘the seven times punishment,’ which began in 745BC with the Assyrian captivity and ended in 1776; July 4th to be exact.  Even more specific and interesting, we can calculate the captivity of Manasseh, which is America, going into captivity in 732BC and coming out of that captivity 2520 years later in the year 1789, the ratification of the Constitution.  All of the tribes of Israel went into captivity at different times and all came out of their respective captivities at different times that coincide with the founding of the European nations and their Constitutions.   Do we ignore these numbers or do we do the math and surmise that God is telling us something?

Part 1:  A message defending the faith of our fathers, the heritage of True Israel and the hope we must transfer to our posterity; a challenge to the traditions of tyrants, that Christianity proclaims liberty; the importance of where and when a 'religious test' is appropriate and biblical.

Part 2:  A presentation as to why the religious test remained with the states and not the federal government; addressing the arguments leveled against the founding fathers regarding jewish and Masonic conspiracies.

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 10:19-25

The authors tell you “Reading this book takes courage” not because of its contents, but what you must do after you read it.  I say it takes perseverance to wade through the misconceptions they’ve given, because the book is a smokescreen for a new spiritual fad and fads are wrought with bait and hook.  They are not fishers of men, but poachers.  If you’re already disgruntled with whatever typical church is out there, then this is an easy excuse to find not only an alternative church, but an alternative Jesus.  Or maybe you’ll just drop out of being a Christian altogether. 

After they put a burden of guilt upon you, you are primed for the next step of participating in spontaneous anarchy in the name of “the Church.”  The point of this review is not to make a big deal about the origin of church practices and how we worship, but to warn you of how our faith can be undermined by an even more hideous hyper-apostasy than churchianity, which calls itself “organic,” as if that makes it pure as the driven snow. 

The church or ecclesia must be understood in the context of race.  If the race card is not played, then you have a stacked deck.  In other words, if the relevance of Israel in the Bible is trivialized with universalism, then the church itself is corrupted.

This is a review of a book about the pagan influence upon the Christian church. 

Part 1: A so-called organic church movement to destroy conventional church worship and practices is countered by a Christian Identity perspective with historical and biblical facts.

Part 2:  This book review refutes the spiritual anarchy to eliminate church buildings; i.e. the hallowed ground reserved for White-only congregations, sermons and pastors, dress codes.  A commentary of Numbers 16 as it pertains to the authors of 'Pagan Christianity'.

Scripture Reading: Exodus 12:37-43

Salvation of colored people and mulattos was not of too much concern to the average White or White Christian until about a century and a half ago when abolitionists caused the death of over half a million White American soldiers. Through the millennia philosophers, emperors and a priestcraft had the luxury to pontificate over the status of non-Whites in the scheme of world events. In contrast, the average White man’s only consideration was providing for his family in a hostile world. Since the White man’s only focus was for his own kind, caring about the welfare of other races, whether it was their past, present or future status, had to be pounded into their minds through any means.

It shouldn’t come as any surprise to the Christian Identity community then, that the White person who discovers his biblical heritage as the Israel people of Scripture and has not yet developed a racial consciousness, because of a lifetime of brainwashing, innocently inquires about the salvation of other races, especially if they have been reared in the catholic/orthodox judeo-Christian churches or given k-12 years of public indoctrination/education.

Scripture Reading: Numbers 13:30-33

Let me begin by recollecting a scene from the movie, "Patton", in which George C. Scott reenacts the encounter General Patton has with a soldier at a field hospital. The General is honoring his wounded men until he comes to this one guy shaking like a leaf and he asks a nurse, "What's wrong with the man?"  She said something like, "Oh, sir, he's suffering from the emotional stress of the battlefield."  At that point, Patton takes off his gloves and starts smacking the soldier in the face, calling him a coward; telling him there's nothing wrong with him and running him out of that hospital where other soldiers were bleeding, bandaged and dying on their deathbeds.

Do you think Patton understood the implications of cowardice among his troops if gone unchecked?  For one thing, you're not going to win a war, if your men lose the will to fight.  By the same token, do you think our God understands the ramifications of a coward in and among His people, Israel?  When the Lord declares in Jeremiah 51:20 that our race is His battle axe and weapons of war, the thought of a coward doesn't even enter the picture.  In fact, the word coward is not even in the Bible, although, as we'll see, there are cases of cowardice.  God's Word is more focused on the godliness of victory and the means in which to achieve it than having a preoccupation with defeat.  The enemy works very hard to instill a mindset of doom and futility, which leads to our surrender to the world.
