“[B]e it known unto thee … that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.”  Daniel 3:18 KJV

A statue of the Phoenician/Carthaginian deity Molech sits at the entrance to the Roman Colosseum. It is a replica of the statue featured in the 1914 Italian silent film Cabiria.

A Vatican-placed statue of the Canaanite god Molech is creating quite a stir among tourists visiting the Colosseum in Rome these days.

“The Colloseum of Rome is owned by the Vatican … If anyone wants to do anything there, they must get permissions from the office of the Diocese of Rome. This exhibition, called “Cathargo: the immortal myth” could not be held there at all unless permissions were granted at high levels.”

The Molech statue, which has been in front of the Colosseum since September, is part of the Carthago exhibition celebrating Carthaginian culture and art.

Culture and art notwithstanding, some tourists and Roman Catholics are not amused that Molech (one of the most monstrous and terrible pagan deities of the ancient world) sits at the entrance of the most-visited tourist destination in the world where countless Christians were tortured and executed for entertainment.

“Standing guard over the entrance was the colossal pagan statue of Moloch. … [E]veryone that entered into the Colosseum had to pass it. It was like they put Moloch there to mock the sacred place where the holy martyrs spilled their blood …” Alexandra Clark, visitor to the Colosseum

In ancient Carthage, it was customary for Molech worshippers to burn their children alive as offerings to the deity.

Scripture also mentions Molech in the books of Leviticus, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, and Jeremiah where God forbids the Jews “to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech.”

Last month the Roman Catholic Church was embroiled in controversy surrounding the opening of the Amazon Synod. A ceremony involving the pagan goddess “Pachamama” was held at Vatican Gardens in the presence of Pope Francis and top-ranking prelates.

The Amazonian Synod ended with Alexander Tschugguel, a frustrated Roman Catholic, tossing the wooden statuettes of the fertility goddess into the Tiber River.

The placement of a pagan god (responsible for the deaths of untold numbers of children) and the ceremony honoring a South American fertility goddess have left some tourists and Roman Catholics looking at the Vatican with jaundice eye.

“Both of these evil pagan idols required child sacrifices and both of them came to Rome at about the same time [as] the Synod.” Alexandra Clark

The Molech statue will remain at the entrance of the Colosseum in Rome until March 29, 2020.

As a side note, ancient pagan deities are being acknowledged in key locations throughout the world today. In 2016, a 50-foot reproduction of the arch that stood at the Temple of Baal, a.k.a. the Arch of Palmyra was temporarilly reconstructed in New York City, London., and Washington D.C.,

 

 

 

 

“[T]hat which is offered in sacrifice to idols is … sacrifice[d] to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils. 1 Corinthians 10:19, 20,21 KJV

For more on this story, see Statue of ancient god of child sacrifice put on display in Rome and Giant Statue of Moloch Placed Outside the Colosseum in Rome.


The image of Moloch that currently stands outside the Colosseum is modeled after the idol of Moloch from the 1914 Italian silent film Cabiria. In the film, the idol of Moloch sits in a Punic temple and houses a furnace in his chest where children are thrown in and burned alive.

The King James Version of the Bible is the greatest book in the history of the world. For nearly 300 years the KJV was the Bible of choice for Christians who preached the salvation of Jesus Christ to the world.

With the publication of the Authorized or King James Version of the Bible, the Roman Catholic Church lost control of the English speaking world. Having failed in their attempts to destroy the KJV, the Jesuit Order of Roman Catholic Church changed their tactics to undermine the King James Bible with corrupted, counterfeit modern versions of the Bible.

The documentary below proves Roman Catholic infiltration, and points out why the destruction of the King James Bible is necessary to implement a global religious system and government.

“Now that the King James Bible has been removed from the hands of the majority of professing Christians, Satan’s false prophets are able to deceive them into thinking that the Roman Catholic Church is no longer the enemy of Bible-believing Christianity.” 

The leaders of the Emergent Church movement are calling for the end of the Protestant Reformation: 

“For five hundred years the basis of authority has been Sola Scripture. It’s not anymore. We’ve lost our authority. You and I now live in a globalized society. Who’s got the authority?

One of the things that’s happening in this great emergence is that the division between Roman Catholic believers and non-Roman Catholic believers is dwindling away as they enter into the emergence.

The authority for the Reformation was … Scripture only and only Scripture. That authority won’t work now. The absolutism with which Protestants established it as the authority has now shattered and gone. You’d save a lot more souls if you could get rid of doctrine; that’s the truth.

Your kingdom is in your hands and your shaping. Go forth and bring forth a new form of Christianity that will serve a new culture.” Phyllis Tickle, author, lecturer, Emergent Church leader

In 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12, Paul writes that Antichrist’s false prophets “received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 

The Roman Catholic Church wants to rid the world of the King James Bible because it is and always has been the greatest threat to papal authority and the establishment of a global religious system and government. 

Peace.

For Roman Catholics their source of truth is the Roman Catholic Church. They trust their church for truth and for salvation, and they believe that there is no contradiction between what Scripture teaches and what an “infallible” Pope and the Roman Catholic Church teaches.

They believe and trust their church’s interpretation of Scripture, which can be a fatal mistake because they can be deceived and won’t know it. The only way they can know for sure if their church’s teachings are correct is to do what the Bereans did in Acts 17:11, compare the teachings to the Scriptures.

The Roman Catholic Church’s teaching that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was immaculately conceived, i.e., born without original sin clearly contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture. The verses quoted below are from the the Roman Catholic Douay-Rheims translation of the Bible (DRV).

If Mary was born sinless, why would she need a savior? In Luke’s Gospel, Mary says, “And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.” (Luke 1: 47 Douay-Rheims) 

If Mary’s life was pure and sinless, why did she go through the purification period and offer a sacrifice to make atonement for her sin and to cleanse her? According to Old Testament Law (Leviticus 12:1-8), the mother must be purified after a birth because the issue of blood makes her ritually unclean. According to the law of the Lord, Mary went to Jerusalem and offered a sacrifice of turtledoves or young pigeons Luke 2:22-24 Douay-Rheims.

If Mary were the only human being born sinless, why would Jesus say, “there hath not risen among them that are born of women a greater than John the Baptist (Matthew 11:11 Douay-Rheims)? Surly the sinless Mary would be greater than John the Baptist.

If Mary were truly sinless, why did Jesus downplay Mary’s importance and put her on the same level as everyone else? After hearing Jesus teach, a woman shouted from the crowd, “Blessed is the womb that bore thee, and the paps that gave thee suck.” And Jesus responded saying, “Yea rather, blessed are they who hear the word of God, and keep it” (Luke 11:27-28 Douay-Rheims). Not only did Jesus not elevate Mary when given the opportunity, He diminished her status by making her equal with everyone else who hears the Word of God and obeys it.

The following Scriptures teach that all human beings are born sinners:

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned 

Romans 3:9-12 For we have charged both Jews, and Greeks, that they are all under sin. As it is written: There is not any man just. There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. All have turned out of the way; they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, there is not so much as one.

Romans 5:12 Wherefore as by one man sin entered into this world, and by sin death; and so death passed upon all men, in whom all have sinned.

Romans 7:14  For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.

Ephesians 2:3 In which also we all conversed in time past, in the desires of our flesh, fulfilling the will of the flesh and of our thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest:

Isaiah 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray, every one hath turned aside into his own way: and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is perverse above all things, and unsearchable, who can know it?

Job 15:14-16 What is man that he should be without spot, and he that is born of a woman that he should appear just? Behold among his saints none is unchangeable, and the heavens are not pure in his sight. How much more is man abominable, and unprofitable, who drinketh iniquity like water?

Genesis 8:21 And the Lord smelled a sweet savour, and said: I will no more curse the earth for the sake of man: for the imagination and thought of man’s heart are prone to evil from his youth: therefore I will no more destroy every living soul as I have done.

Roman Catholics can believe either what Scripture clearly teaches about the mother of Jesus, or they can believe what their church teaches about the immaculate conception, they just can’t believe both any longer.  

Peace

Islam is the rod of the Lord our God’s wrath. If the Pope is not overcome, it’s not unreasonable to fear that Islam will not be overcome either.

The fight against the papacy and Islam must begin with repentance. Protestant thinking must be reformed, or the fight is over before it begins.

Protestants must be taught Reformation history to know what Protestantism is, what it’s become, and where it’s headed.

Protestant pastors should drive their flocks to repentance by showing them their great and numerous sins and marble-hearted ingratitude.

Protestants have earned God’s wrath and disfavor; therefore, He is more than justified in putting them into the hands of the Pope and Islam.

“This day, I trust, the reign of political protestantism will commence.”—Samuel Adams, upon signing the Declaration of Independence

Members on the rolls of local churches belong to what theologians have called since the 4th century the visible church. Augustine loosely defined it as a mixed body of wheat and tares, as described by Jesus. People who respond to an outward call of the Gospel join visible church communities for their teaching, guidance, and fellowship.

The visible church can been seen and experienced, so its existence is readily apparent and not in dispute. However, an invisible universal church isn’t readily apparent to everyone. In fact some visible church members say an invisible church is pure nonsense, and they don’t believe it exists.

People who don’t believe in an invisible church know little to nothing about the Scripture, the Protestant Reformation, or the classic Protestant distinction between the visible and invisible church.

The distinction does not mean that the Lord Jesus has two separate churches. Scripture teaches there is one bride, one body, and one church of regenerated, born-again believers. The terms “invisible” and “visible” are used to draw distinctions between the two groups in the universal church.

All born-again Christians are members of the invisible church, but not all professing Christians are members of the invisible church even though they are members of the visible church.

The visible churches can’t save unregenerate sinners from God’s condemnation and judgment, and their sacraments and rituals can’t give life to unregenerate sinners who are spiritually dead and alienated from God.

Only Jesus Christ can save sinners from judgment, and only the Holy Spirit can give life to spiritually dead sinners.

The clearest description explaining the Scriptural doctrine of the invisible and visible church was penned in the mid seventeenth century by the Westminster divines in Chapter XXV of The Westminster Confession of Faith.  

Of the Church:

I. The catholic or universal Church, which is invisible, consists of the whole number of the elect, that have been, are, or shall be gathered into one, under Christ the Head thereof; and is the spouse, the body, the fulness of Him that fills all in all.[1]

II. The visible Church, which is also catholic or universal under the Gospel (not confined to one nation, as before under the law), consists of all those throughout the world that profess the true religion;[2] and of their children:[3] and is the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ,[4] the house and family of God,[5] out of which there is no ordinary possibility of salvation.[6]

III. Unto this catholic visible Church Christ has given the ministry, oracles, and ordinances of God, for the gathering and perfecting of the saints, in this life, to the end of the world: and does, by his own presence and Spirit, according to his promise, make them effectual thereunto.[7]

IV. This catholic Church has been sometimes more, sometimes less visible.[8] And particular Churches, which are members thereof, are more or less pure, according as the doctrine of the Gospel is taught and embraced, ordinances administered, and public worship performed more or less purely in them.[9]

V. The purest Churches under heaven are subject both to mixture and error;[10] and some have so degenerated, as to become no Churches of Christ, but synagogues of Satan.[11] Nevertheless, there shall be always a Church on earth to worship God according to his will.[12]

VI. There is no other head of the Church but the Lord Jesus Christ.[13] Nor can the Pope of Rome, in any sense, be head thereof; but is that Antichrist, that man of sin, and son of perdition, that exalts himself, in the Church, against Christ and all that is called God.[14]

Scriptural Support:

[1] EPH 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him. 22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. COL 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

[2] 1CO 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours. 1CO 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. PSA 2:8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. REV 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands. ROM 15:9 And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name. 10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. 11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people. 12 And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.

[3] 1CO 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. ACT 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. EZE 16:20 Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter, 21 That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them? ROM 11:16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. GEN 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

[4] MAT 13:47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind. ISA 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

[5] EPH 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God. 3:15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named.

[6] ACT 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

[7] 1CO 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. EPH 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ. MAT 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. ISA 59:21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.

[8] ROM 11:3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. 4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. REV 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. 14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

[9] (REV 2-3 throughout) 1CO 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us.

[10] 1CO 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. MAT 13:24-30, 47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind.

[11] REV 18:2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. ROM 11:18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. 19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in. 20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: 21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. 22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

[12] MAT 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. PSA 72:17 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed. 102:28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee. MAT 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

[13] COL 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. EPH 1:22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church.

[14]MAT 23:8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 2TH 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders. REV 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
