The Ecumenical Farce Exposed!

To beatify a man who also condemned the idea that non-Roman-Catholics should be free to practise their religion, and who rejected any notion of papal reconciliation with ''progress, liberalism and modern society'', has once again exposed the unmistakable face behind the Vatican masquerade. 
Professor Arthur Noble

O that the free would stamp the impious name
Of Pope into the dust! Or write it there,
So that this blot upon the page of fame
Were as a serpent's path, which the light air
Erases, and the flat sands close behind! 
- Percy Bysshe Shelley

The great English statesman W.E. Gladstone (1809-1898), who was four times British Prime Minister in the 19th century, once issued a solemn warning about the Church of Rome which the blind and brainless dupes travelling on the ecumenical bandwagon have still not understood: "Rome," said Gladstone, "has refurbished, and paraded anew, every rusty tool that she was fondly thought to have disused."

The beatification of the anti-Semite Pope Pius IX is one such example of the changelessness of the old hag who masquerades behind the external show of modernism. The controversy over Pius IX follows the uproar over the beatification of his namesake, Pius XII, the notorious "Hitler's Pope", and has provoked worldwide fury.

The pontificate of Pius IX (1846-78) was the longest in history and included the declaration of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception (1854) and the First Vatican Council's (1869-1870) doctrine of papal infallibility. The Irish Sunday Observer (September 3, 2000) summed up his essence well in the headline "A Pope who kidnaps children and calls Jews dogs is no Saint".

The reference was to the fact that in 1849 Pius IX, by his real name Giovanni Maria Mastai Ferretti, sanctioned the kidnapping and forced baptism of a six-year-old Jewish boy who was taken from his parents in 1858 – an act reminiscent of the 1993 actions of the Vatican-inspired UNADFI in France, which organised a conspiracy to destroy the non-ecumenical Protestant Christian Churches in that country, labelling them 'sects' as an excuse to kidnap the children of their members. Rome's Chief Rabbi Elio Toaff told the Italian Repubblica newspaper: "Kidnapping a child, bringing him to a convent, making him a priest, taking him away from his parents – this is stuff right out of the penal code."

Pius IX also became notorious for introducing race laws which have been described by Jewish historians as the forerunners of those of Hitler and Mussolini; they forced Jews back into the old ghettos where they had been confined for hundreds of years, banned them from public hospitals, and excluded them from attending secondary schools. Many European heads of state protested the 1858 kidnapping, and as a result Pius blamed Rome's Jews for what he claimed was a widespread Protestant conspiracy to defeat the papacy, and levied medieval restrictions on the community.

Jewish assessments of the racist Pius IX have also been confirmed by many non-Jewish historians, including Professor Owen Chadwick, a leading English church scholar who says that the record of Pius IX "verges on the criminal". The fascist-style actions of the self-professing 'Vicar of Christ on Earth' provoked an international outcry at the time. Predictably, however, the Vatican was adamant that the ceremony should proceed and thus demonstrated its unchanging principle that imaginary self-imputed 'infallibility' extends to the justification of blatant racism and shameless criminality.

Significantly, ultimate responsibility for the beatification of this racist thug reverts to the present Pope John Paul II himself, who in the early 1940's was employed as a salesman by the I.G. Farben Chemical Company in Poland. This company sold cyanide, Zyklon B and malathion – three gases which were used by the Nazis to exterminate millions of Jews and other groups. [See Milton William Cooper: Secret Societies. The New World Order. Part 3.]

The Late Bishop Tony Palmer, before he died from a motorcycle accident with Pope Francis I

Having ostensibly made reconciliation with the Jews a hallmark of his own pontificate, Pope John Paul II has revealed the true face behind the mask of the Roman Church's so-called ecumenism: with the arrogant and unchanging stubbornness of his anti-Semitic predecessor, he has ignored an international campaign to reverse the beatification decision and embellished the crimes of Pius IX as "heroic values". To beatify a man who also condemned the idea that non-Roman-Catholics should be free to practise their religion, and who rejected any notion of papal reconciliation with ''progress, liberalism and modern society'', has once again exposed the unmistakable face behind the Vatican masquerade.

JESUS HATES RELIGION!

Many people are deceived and being deceived and lured into a Christless religion by many false Church Leaders, Priests, Pastors, Elders, ETC. People are taught that they should JOIN AND BECOME A MEMBER OF THEIR RELIGION to be SAVED and that their Religion is the true CHURCH whereby you must join to be come righteous and holy... Is this really what the BIBLE is teaching?.... Well, In my country who is a country of many tongues and beliefs and religion... a country named after a Spanish and Portugese King who is called by many as champion of the Roman Catholic Counter-Reformation. For centuries their minds had been conditioned and their hearts had been taught that it is through RELIGION that MAN CAN BE SAVED and NOT THROUGH CHRIST ALONE. A CULTURE KNOWN AS FILIPINO CULTURE... known all over the world as corrupt yet religious.  LET US REMEMBER... RELIGION... IS NOT CHRIST... NOR CHRIST IS RELIGIOUS! WE MUST GET OUT OF HER BEFORE IT IS TO LATE! THERE IS NO RELIGION OR CHURCH THAT CAN SAVE YOU! ONLY CHRIST and IT IS HIM ALONE AND THERE IS NO OTHER!

DOES JESUS HATE RELIGION? KINDA, SORTA, NOT REALLY”  By KEVIN DEYOUNG
Specifically how Jesus hates religion. The video—which in a few days has gone from hundreds of views to thousands to millions—shows Jefferson Bethke, who lives in the Seattle area, delivering a well-crafted, sharply produced, spoken word poem. The point, according to Bethke, is “to highlight the difference between Jesus and false religion.” In the past few days I’ve seen this video pop up all over Facebook. I’ve had people from my church say they like it. Some has asked me what I think. Others have told me there’s something off about the poem, but they can’t quite articulate what it is. I’ll try to explain what that is in a moment. But first watch the video for yourself.
Youtube Vid: Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus 
Before I say anything else, let me say Jefferson Bethke seems like a sincere young man who wants people to know God’s scandalous grace. I’m sure he’s telling the truth when he says on his Facebook page: “I love Jesus, I’m addicted to grace, and I’m just a messed up dude trying to make Him famous.” If I met him face to face, I bet I’d like Jefferson and his honesty and passion. I bet I’d be encouraged by his story and his desire to free people from the snares of self-help, self-righteous religion.

And yet (you knew it was coming), amidst a lot of true things in this poem there is a lot that is unhelpful and misleading.

This video is the sort of thing that many younger Christians love. It sounds good, looks good, and feels good. But is it true? That’s the question we must always ask. And to answer that question, I want to go through this poem slowly, verse by verse. Not because I think this is the worst thing ever. It’s certainly not. Nor because I think this video will launch a worldwide revolution. I want to spend some time on this because Bethke perfectly captures the mood, and in my mind the confusion, of a lot of earnest, young Christians.

Verse 1

What if I told you Jesus came to abolish religion
What if I told you voting republican really wasn’t his mission
What if I told you republican doesn’t automatically mean Christian
And just because you call some people blind
Doesn’t automatically give you vision

Okay, so the line about Republicans is a cheap shot (if you vote GOP) or a prophetic stance (if you like Jim Wallis). While it’s true that “republican doesn’t automatically mean Christian” and in some parts of the country that may be a word churchgoers need to hear, I doubt that putting right-wingers in their place is the most pressing issue in Seattle.

More important is Bethke’s opening line: “Jesus came to abolish religion.” That’s the whole point of the poem. The argument—and most poems are arguing for something—rests on the sharp distinction between religion on one side and Jesus on the other. Whether this argument is fair depends on your definition of religion. Bethke sees religion as a man made attempt to earn God’s favor. Religion equals self-righteousness, moral preening, and hypocrisy. Religion is all law and no gospel. If that’s religion, then Jesus is certainly against it.

But that’s not what religion is. We can say that’s what is has become for some people or what weunderstand it to be. But words still matter and we shouldn’t just define them however we want. “Jesus hates religion” communicates something that “Jesus hates self-righteousness” doesn’t. To say that Jesus hates pride and hypocrisy is old news. To say he hates religion—now, that has a kick to it. People hear “religion” and think of rules, rituals, dogma, pastors, priests, institutions. People love Oprah and the Shack and “spiritual, not religious” bumper stickers because the mood of our country is one that wants God without the strictures that come with traditional Christianity. We love the Jesus that hates religion.

The only problem is, he didn’t. Jesus was a Jew. He went to services at the synagogue. He observed Jewish holy days. He did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, but to fulfill them (Matt. 5:17). He founded the church (Matt. 16:18). He established church discipline (Matt. 18:15-20). He instituted a ritual meal (Matt. 26:26-28). He told his disciples to baptize people and to teach others to obey everything he commanded (Matt. 28:19-20). He insisted that people believe in him and believe certain things about him (John 3:16-18; 8:24). If religion is characterized by doctrine, commands, rituals, and structure, then Jesus is not your go-to guy for hating religion. This was the central point behind the book Ted Kluck and I wrote a few years ago.

The word “religion” occurs five times in English Standard Version of the Bible. It is, by itself, an entirely neutral word. Religion can refer to Judaism (Acts 26:5) or the Jewish-Christian faith (Acts 25:19). Religion can be bad when it is self-made (Col. 2:23) or fails to tame the tongue (James 1:26). But religion can also be good when it cares for widows and orphans and practices moral purity (James 1:27). Unless we define the word to suit our purposes, there is simply no biblical grounds for saying Jesus hated religion. What might be gained by using such language will, without a careful explanation and caveats, be outweighed by what is lost when we give the impression that religion is the alloy that corrupts a relationship with Jesus.

Verse 2

I mean if religion is so great, why has it started so many wars
Why does it build huge churches, but fails to feed the poor
Tells single moms God doesn’t love them if they’ve ever had a divorce
But in the old testament God actually calls religious people whores

These claims say very little because they try to say too much. Have there been religious wars in the last two thousand years? Yes. Have there also been wars over money, land, ego, women, slavery, democracy, freedom, communism, fascism, Nazism, terrorism and just about everything else you can imagine? Yes. Furthermore, if you want to blame conflict on religion, you can’t neatly excise Jesus from the equation. You may not like the Crusades, but many of the Crusaders thought they were sincerely fighting for Jesus by trying take back the Holy Land from the Muslims.

More to the point, Christians need to stop perpetuating the myth that we’ve basically been huge failures in the world. That may win us an audience with non-Christians, but it’s not true. We are sinners like everyone else, so our record is mixed. We’ve been stupid and selfish over the years. But we’ve also been the salt of the earth. The evangelical awakening in England in the eighteenth century is widely credited for preventing the sort of bloodbath that swept over France in the “enlightened” French Revolution. Christians (and conservatives in general) give more to charitable causes than their secular counterparts. Christians run countless shelters, pregnancy centers, rescue missions, and food pantries. Christians operate orphanages, staff clinics, dig wells, raise crops, teach children, and fight AIDS around the globe. While we can always do more and may be blind to the needs around us at times, there is no group of people on the planet that do more for the poor than Christians. If you know of a church with a dozen escalators and no money and no heart for the hurting, then blast that church. But we have to stop the self-flagellation and the slander that says Christians do nothing for the poor.

As for divorce, it is often (but not always) wrong. Even when it is wrong, there is forgiveness when people repent. Shame on any church that doesn’t think or demonstrate that there is room at the cross for unwed or divorced moms.

And about the harsh language in the Old Testament—it cuts both ways. All people in the Old Testament, and in the entire ancient near east for that matter, were religious people. Some of them were fakes and hypocrites and whores. Some were idolaters and adulterers. Some performed their rituals and went on to ignore the weightier matters of the law. And some of the religious people were God’s remnant, God’s holy people, and God’s friends. In both Testaments, God has no problem rebuking religious people and no problem loving them either.

Verse 3

Religion might preach grace, but another thing they practice
Tend to ridicule God’s people, they did it to John The Baptist
They can’t fix their problems, and so they just mask it
Not realizing religions like spraying perfume on a casket
See the problem with religion, is it never gets to the core
It’s just behavior modification, like a long list of chores
Like lets dress up the outside make look nice and neat
But it’s funny that’s what they use to do to mummies
While the corpse rots underneath

I’ve already said that I don’t think “religion” is the right term for what Bethke is talking about. But he has done a great job here of describing false religion. Jesus blasted the Pharisees for being “whitewashed tombs,” for looking beautiful on the outside and full of dead people’s bones on the inside, for appearing righteous but being full of hypocrisy and lawlessness (Matt. 23:27-28). It is possible for churches and churchgoers to have the reputation for being alive, but actually be dead (Rev. 3:1). Some churches claim to love grace, but all they give you is legalism. Bethke is hitting on a real problem.

Verse 4

Now I ain’t judgin, I’m just saying quit putting on a fake look
Cause there’s a problem
If people only know you’re a Christian by your Facebook
I mean in every other aspect of life, you know that logic’s unworthy
It’s like saying you play for the Lakers just because you bought a jersey
You see this was me too, but no one seemed to be on to me
Acting like a church kid, while addicted to pornography
See on Sunday I’d go to church, but Saturday getting faded
Acting if I was simply created just to have sex and get wasted
See I spent my whole life building this facade of neatness
But now that I know Jesus, I boast in my weakness

I wish Bethke, and critics like him, would admit that they are “judgin.” He is evaluating Christianity. He is criticizing church as he sees it. The whole poem is a harsh judgment on religious people. Granted, judging is not the same as judgmentalism. After all, I’m judging this poem. So I don’t think what Bethke is doing is wrong. I just wish he wouldn’t try to claim the moral high ground.

Other than that, this is another good verse. Bethke tells his own story to prove that we can be real good at fooling everyone, including ourselves. We need to realize that there are plenty of people in many of our churches who seem to have it all together but don’t. They are kidding themselves and we should not encourage such self-deception.

Verse 5

Because if grace is water, then the church should be an ocean
It’s not a museum for good people, it’s a hospital for the broken
Which means I don’t have to hide my failure, I don’t have to hide my sin
Because it doesn’t depend on me it depends on him
See because when I was God’s enemy and certainly not a fan
He looked down and said I want, that, man
Which is why Jesus hated religion, and for it he called them fools
Don’t you see so much better than just following some rules
Now let me clarify, I love the church, I love the Bible, and yes I believe in sin
But if Jesus came to your church would they actually let him in
See remember he was called a glutton, and a drunkard by religious men
But the Son of God never supports self righteousness not now, not then

There is much that is good and a few things that are confused in this verse. The church should be an ocean of grace. We don’t have to hide our sins before God. It doesn’t depend on us. We should love the church and the Bible and believe that sin exists. Jesus died for us while we were yet sinners. Jesus never supported self-righteousness. All of that is wonderfully and powerfully true.

But let me raise a few other points.

One, we have to remember that the purpose of a hospital is to help sick people get better. I’m sure Bethke would agree with that. But there is no indication in this poem that the grace that forgives is also the grace that transforms. Following Jesus is more than keeping rules, but it’s not less. In one sense, loving Jesus is also all about keeping rules (John 14:15, 21, 23-24). I’m not sure how the Jesus of John 14 fits in the world of Bethke’s poem.

Two, there is no inherent dignity in being broken. Jesus likes the honesty that acknowledges sin, hates it and turns away, but he does not love authenticity for its own sake. We have to be more careful with our language. When Paul boasted of his weakness, he was boasting of his suffering, his lack of impressiveness, and the trials he endured (1 Cor. 2:3; 2 Cor. 11:30; 12:9). He never boasted of his temptations or his sins—past or present. That’s not what he meant by weakness. Being broken is not the point, except to be forgiven and changed.

Three, as I’ve mentioned before, the religious leaders hated Jesus, first and foremost because they thought he was a blasphemer who dared to make himself equal with God (Matt. 26:57-68;Mark 14:53-65; Luke 22:66-71; and less clearly in John 18:19-24). It’s true that many of the religious elite found Jesus too free with his meals and his associations. They called him a “glutton and drunkard” (Luke 7:34), though he wasn’t either. But they also said John the Baptist “has a demon” (Luke 7:33). They were just as opposed to John’s asceticism as they were upset with Jesus’ liberty. More than hating grace, the Jewish leaders hated the truth about Christ and found ways to reject God’s messengers.

Verse 6

Now back to the point, one thing is vital to mention
How Jesus and religion are on opposite spectrums
See one’s the work of God, but one’s a man made invention
See one is the cure, but the other’s the infection
See because religion says do, Jesus says done
Religion says slave, Jesus says son
Religion puts you in bondage, while Jesus sets you free
Religion makes you blind, but Jesus makes you see
And that’s why religion and Jesus are two different clans

I won’t repeat my initial comments about religion and Jesus and whether they are really “on opposite spectrums.” I don’t think they are. That point notwithstanding, Bethke speaks the truth in this section. The differences between slavery and sonship, bondage and freedom, blindness and sight are all biblical themes.

I think the line about “religion says do, Jesus says done” can be misleading. Too many people hear that as “relationship not rules” when we’ve already seen that Jesus wants us to do everything he has commanded (Matt. 28:20). But if “do” means “do this to earn my favor” then the contrast is very appropriate.

Verse 7

Religion is man searching for God, Christianity is God searching for man
Which is why salvation is freely mine, and forgiveness is my own
Not based on my merits but Jesus’s obedience alone
Because he took the crown of thorns, and the blood dripped down his face
He took what we all deserved, I guess that’s why you call it grace
And while being murdered he yelled
“Father forgive them they know not what they do.”
Because when he was dangling on that cross, he was thinking of you
And he absorbed all of your sin, and buried it in the tomb
Which is why I’m kneeling at the cross, saying come on there’s room
So for religion, no I hate it, in fact I literally resent it
Because when Jesus said it is finished, I believe he meant it

There is a lot to like with this final section. Great affirmation of Jesus active obedience. Great focus on the cross. Great invitation for sinners to come to Christ. I think Bethke understands justification by faith alone through grace alone in Christ alone. I would have liked to have heard something about the wrath of God being poured out on the cross as opposed to simply “absorb[ing] all of your sin.” But given Bethke’s previous video criticizing Love Wins, it’s best to give him the benefit of the doubt. Similarly, I’m not sure it’s best to so emphasize that Jesus was thinking of us on the cross. The “joy set before” him in Hebrews 12:2 was the joy of being seated at God’s right hand, not the joy of being with us as Bethke advocates in another video. But these are smaller points that do not negate the strong message of grace and forgiveness.

Conclusion

I know I’ve typed a bunch of words about a You Tube video that no one may be talking about in a month. But, as I said at the beginning, there is so much helpful in this poem mixed with so much unhelpful—and all of it so common—that I felt it worth the effort to examine the theology in detail.

The strengths in this poem are the strengths I see in many young Christians—a passionate faith, a focus on Jesus, a love for grace, and a hatred for anything phony or self-righteous. The weaknesses here can be the weaknesses of my generation (and younger)—not enough talk of repentance and sanctification, a tendency to underestimate the importance of obedience in the Christian life, a one-dimensional view of grace, little awareness that our heavenly Father might ever discipline his children or be grieved by their continued transgression, and a penchant for sloganeering instead of careful nuance.

I know the internet is a big place, but a lot of people are connected to a lot of other people. So who knows, maybe Jefferson Bethke will read this blog. If you do, brother, I want you to know I love what you love in this poem. I watched you give your testimony and give thanks to God for his work in your life. I love the humble desire to be honest about your failings and point people to Christ. I love that you love the church and the Bible. I love that you want people to really get the gospel. You have important things to say and millions of people are listening. So make sure as a teacher you are extra careful and precise (James 3:1). If you haven’t received formal theological training, I encourage you to do so. Your ministry will be made stronger and richer and longer lasting. I encourage you to speak from the Bible before you speak from your own experience. I encourage you to love what Jesus loves without tearing down what he also loves and people are apt to misunderstand. I encourage you to dig deep into the whole counsel of God.

Thanks for reminding us about Jesus. But try to be more careful when talking about religion. After all, there is one religion whose aim is to worship, serve, know, proclaim, believe, obey, and organize around this Jesus. And without all those verbs, there’s not much Jesus left.

Ten Most Wanted False Teachers In America

Here is a list of the "Ten Most Wanted" religious false teachers in America today. These men and all the men and women listed on this poster are wanted by all SPIRIT controlled believers (Eph. 5.18). When these false teachers and false prophets are apprehended they will be tried in a spiritual court of law (I Kor. 6.2), and when found guilty they will be punished according to the Scriptures (Rom. 16.17; I Tim. 3.5,6; 2 Tim. 2.25,26; Tit. 1.9-16; 3.10,11).

1. Paul Crouch 2. Pat Robertson 3. Rick Warren 4. Chuck Smith 5. Benny Hinn 6. Robert Schuller 7. Oral Roberts 8. James Swaggart 9. Joel Osteen 10. John Hagee 

Ten Most Wanted

1. Paul Crouch is the most dangerous religious con-artist because of his network (TBN) It is the largest Protestant religious network in the world. He promotes numerous false teachers and false prophets, such as Hal Lindsey, He is an ecumenical leader and he has also been a leader in compelling believers to support a false religion (Babylonian Talmudic Judaism), and a nation (Israel) that oppresses half of its citizens (Palestinians). Paul threw Halunatic Lindsey off of his network because Halunatic condemned the Arabs/Muslims on nearly every program. Paul hates everyone who criticises anyone whether the criticism is just or not. He relented and let Halunatic back on his network. dov-tbn.htm

2. Pat Robertson is dangerous because of his network. He teaches the charismatic false doctrines and has led millions astray into the charismatic movement. He is an ecumenical leader and has been a leader in compelling believers in supporting a false religion (Babylonian Talmudic Judaism), and a nation (Israel) that oppresses half of its citizens (Palestinians). He is also a GOP stooge and a New World Order Gangster.

3. Rick Warren is the latest dark star in the Christian world today. His two books have mesmerized the apostate and ignorant Christian masses. He has taken his "seeker friendly" program to thousands of churches around the country and throughout the world. His program is based on the program that Robert Schuller of Crystal Cathedral infamy developed a few decades ago. Warren has also thrown in some New Age mumble jumble, and he uses some of the New Age techniques. He teaches lukewarm, sour milk to his sycophantic parasites who remain in perpetual, spiritual infancy. dov-warren.htm

4. Chuck Smith is dangerous because he revived the dead pentecostal movement and allegedly has more than 1,000 subsidiary corporations that propagate charismatic nonsense. He is also heard on several radio stations. He was heard on more than 300 radio stations until he had a falling out with Mike Kestler. The pentecostal/charismatic movement is a cancer in Messianic Faith that is eating it away. It is also the leading evidence we are living in the "apostasy" of the "last days" of the "end times" (2 Thes. 2.3). There is no evidence that Chuck Smith is truly born from above. He was allegedly saved in a Four Square assembly. They teach a person must maintain his salvation by works or by abiding in Mashiyach. Chuck holds to that false doctrine and teaches it. If he believed that false doctrine when he made his so-called "decision" to trust YAHSHUA he is not saved. Anyone who trusts YAHSHUA believing they must do something to help Him save him or to keep his salvation, they are not born from above. They have believed a false Gospel (Gal. 1.6-9). The emphasis on signs and wonders among these false believers (Leviy-Matt. 12.39) is solid proof they are not born from above or they are apostate. Smith and his disciples are false teachers who have infiltrated Messianic Faith to subvert it (2 Keph-Peter 2.1). I seriously doubt Smith or any of his disciples are born from above. The vast majority of people who have been deceived by Smith and other charismatic/pentecostal preachers are not born again and they are headed straight to Hell. Smith, his disciples, and all pentematic teachers have the souls of millions of people on their hands and they will have much to give account for at the Great White Throne Judgment. Even YAHSHUA warned us about the Pentematics. He said most of them would be cast into the Lake of Fire. The Pentematics focus on casting out demons, performing miracles and prophesying in the name of "Jesus." The men and women who boast of doing those things will be cast into the Lake of Fire (Matt. 7.21-23). It's possible that Smith and some of his devotees may be born from above, but if any of them are it is obvious from their teaching that they are apostate and are not being taught by the HOLY SPIRIT (I Yochanan-John 2.20, 27). Smith has also been a leader in coercing believers into supporting a false religion (Babylonian Talmudic Judaism), and a nation (Israel) that oppresses half of its citizens (Palestinians).

 5. Benny Hinn was a disciple of the infamous false teacher Kathryn Khulman, and he propagates the false doctrines that she taught. He has adopted other false teachings from Kenny Copeland and Ken Hagin who picked up the heretical Mormon doctrine that all men can become a god. Benny also teaches the heretical doctrine that YAHSHUA was born- again in Hell. He is a leading "word faith" false teacher who is not born from above and headed straight to Hell! dov-hinn.htm

6. Robert Schuller is a notorious false teacher who is not born from above. He is the father of the seeker-friendly craze.

7. Oral Roberts is another dangerous, spiritual criminal because he launched the careers of myriad false teachers through his school. He is the leading pentecostal preacher in America, although his star has faded in the last decade.

8. Jimmy Swaggart is dangerous because he has pumped out hundreds of pentecostal preachers through his school and he has deceived millions through his television broadcasts. His influence was greatly diminished when he was caught with a prostitute.

9. Joel Osteen is the latest feel-good non-preacher. He inherited his empire when his father died. He is a pretty-boy philosopher who rarely teaches the Bible. Instead, he gives wishy-washy pep talks that make his sycophantic parasites feel good.

10. John Hagee, founder and senior pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, a non-denominational charismatic church with more than 19,000 active members, is the chief executive officer (CEO) at his non-profit corporation, Global Evangelism Television (GETV). He is also the President and CEO of John Hagee Ministries, which telecasts his national radio and television ministry carried in the United States on 160 TV stations, 50 radio stations. He is a typical Pentecostal, but he teaches that Jesus never claimed to be the Messiah. He also claims that Jews can be saved through obedience to the Law without trusting in Jesus. He also teaches the inane doctrine of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture. He is a major leader in coercing believers into supporting a false religion (Babylonian Talmudic Judaism), and a nation (Israel) that oppresses half of its citizens (Palestinians).

11. Franklin William "Billy" Graham has spent 50 years working with false churches in his crusades. The two million people, who have allegedly made decisions for the Lord at his crusades, have been told to attend a local church of any kind, including Roman Catholic Churches. The vast majority of his alleged converts have not been born from above and are headed straight to Hell. He has done a great deal in furthering the ecumenical movement. For detailed proof he is apostate go to -- Billy Graham

12. Hal Lindsey, the self-proclaimed "Father of the Modern Day False Prophecy Movement," popularized the false eschatology doctrines of most dispensationalists. His books have influenced thousands of preachers, teachers and laymen leading them astray in the subject of eschatology. Hal has also joined the charispentecostal and ecumenical movements, and has been a leader in coercing believers into supporting a false religion (Babylonian Talmudic Judaism), and a nation (Israel) that oppresses nearly half of its citizens (Palestinians). Like most men who have acquired great wealth, prestige and influence he has spent a good deal of time chasing women. His third wife and church gave him the boot for his sexcapades. For detailed proof of his false prophecies and teachings go to -- haLUNACY Hal posted a second web site - http://www.hallindseyoracle.com/HomePage.html (Oracle means "Answers from the gods" or "divine announcement." Does Halunatic truly think he speaks for YHWH? He has gone over the edge! With this web site he has revealed his true colors -- he is a FALSE PROFIT!!! He is the Father of the Modern Day False Prophecy Movement!!! His other web site -- http://www.iib-report.com was abandoned. He now has another web site -- http://www.hallindsey.com)

13. Jack Impe not only pushes the false eschatology doctrines of John F. Walvoord and Hal Lindsey, he is a leading ecumenical who praises John Paul II and the Roman Catholic Church every chance he gets. He also jumped on the Hal Lindsey false prophecy movement making numerous false prophecies concerning the date of the Rapture. Like the rest of these false teachers Jack supports a false religion (Babylonian Talmudic Judaism), and a nation (Israel) that oppresses nearly half of its citizens (Palestinians). He is also a leading ecumenicalist who will join hands with anyone as long as they claimed to be a "Christian." Their doctrines mean little to him. dov-wimpe.htm

14. Tim LaHaye was dropped from the Top 10 due to the fact that his idiotic "Left Behind" series of fantasy books is completed and his new series is a total flop. He will not negatively impact the Christian world with his nonsense again. Yet his book series will continue to influence apostate Christians and ignorant ones. He also teaches the false eschatology doctrines that Lindsey has popularized, and his "Left Behind" series has made him over $100 million. Sadly, he has deceived millions of people with this book series. Tim has also been a major figure in subverting Messianic Faith through the Council for National Policy which he founded in 1981. This secret council consists of backslidden and apostate believers such as Pat Robertson, Gary Bauer, John Ankerberg, Dave Breese (deceased), Bill Bright (deceased), Larry Burkett, Jim Dobson, Mike Farris, Bob Jones III, D. J. Kennedy deceased), Marlin Maddoux, Gary North, R.J. Rushdoony (deceased) and New World Order puppets like Jack Kemp, Ed Meese III, Larry North, Richard Allen, Ed Atsinger III, Rich DeVos, Jesse Helms, Reed Irvine, Trent Lott, Don McAlvany, Don Nickles, Paul Pressler, John Sununu and Phyllis Schafley.
