FOR THOSE WHO ARE COMPLACENT

WITH THE CHURCH’S CONDITION

BEFORE GOD AND THE WORLD

 

Memory Text: “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done, is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Eccl.1:9

     When the pope was exalted as Supreme Ruler of the Church, adopting the titles, "Vicar of the Son of God," "the Holy Father," "the Holy See," and "His Holiness;" his sins against the 2nd and 4th Commandments became the sins of every man under his rule. And through the deceiving of one, Satan is able to deceive the multitudes into committing sin. This has always been the danger of entrusting many lives into the hands of one man. “Give us a king to judge us" (I Sam.8:6) is the cry of the whole Christian world when they look to the pope to rule in the affairs of men.

     Numerous prophecies point to the pope of Rome and his long ignominious rule. The last of the four kingdoms to rule the Earth until the 2nd Advent of Christ the Bible specified as Rome.  In Daniel, chapter 2, GOD assigned "iron" as representative of the moral character of this fourth and final kingdom, and spans both phases of the Roman dominion: pagan and papal.  We live today in the age of the final kingdom of earth’s sinful history. This kingdom is the Vatican of Rome. But consider the Bible’s prophetic destiny of Rome: Daniel’s prophecy states that Christ will come and smash to smithereens the papal authority as it is written: "Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them." Dan.2:34,35. This is the fate of the papal system of Christianity. This also disqualifies the Vatican’s claim to be the sole administrator of salvation, and removes any perception of Rome’s approval from GOD. It also shows the great danger of men submitting to her doctrines promoting sin, which lie at the heart of Christ’s retribution against her when He comes. But never forget, the righteousness of Christ covers all ignorant sins. Catholics and Protestants by the millions are sinning ignorantly, and GOD does not hold them accountable for the sins willfully carried out by their leaders except as they knowingly turn from GOD and participate in those sins (Eccl.8:11; Prov.1:11-31).

     Logically, we must now ask the question: What is the great sin of Rome that leads Christ to obliterate her when He comes?  In the following words of Pope Nicolaus both sin and blasphemy have been exalted to rule the church, even to this day.  His beliefs represent what lies at the heart of the Vatican’s version of Christianity.  It is the pope's teaching, verses the Bible's teaching that warns every man of the Vatican’s dramatic extinction when Christ returns.  Herein lies the true purpose of Romanism as defined by Pope Nicolaus (as contrasted with the Holy Word of GOD):

Said Pope Nicolaus: "The Roman Pontiff judges all men but is judged by no one."

Said Christ, the LORD: "For the Father judgeth no man." Jn.5:22; "I judge no man." Jn.8:15; "He that rejecteth Me, and receive not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day." Jn.12:48.

The pope continues: "I am all in all and above all."

Said Christ, "Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased." Matt. 23:12. The great Antichrist of Scripture is defined thus: "Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things." Daniel 11:37,38.

"Wherefore if those things that I do be said not to be done of man but of GOD what can you make me but GOD?"

Said Christ, "Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." Matt.24:4,5. Various popes of the last 100+ years concurred with Nicolaus: "We hold the place of Almighty GOD on earth."—Pope Leo XIII, Apostolic Letter, June 20, 1894. "The Pope...is Jesus Christ himself, hidden under the veil of flesh." –Pope Pius X. "You know that I am the Holy Father, the representative of GOD on earth, the Vicar of Christ, which means that I am GOD on the earth." –Pope Pius XI, April 30, 1922. The blasphemy of claiming attributes of Deity is defined in Scripture thus: "The Jews answered Him [Christ], For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God." Jn.10:33.

"Wherefore no marvel if it be in my power to change time and times, to alter and abrogate laws."

The great Antichrist of the Bible is defined thus: "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and think to change times and laws." Dan.7:25. Catholicism has officially removed the 2nd Commandment (the one telling of GOD’S “mercy”) and usurped the authority of Christ as Creator in the Sabbath of the 4th Commandment by changing “the Lord’s day” from Saturday to Sunday, a common workday according to Scripture. The pope claims for himself the authority that belongs to GOD and Christ alone.

"To dispense with all things, yea, with the precepts of Christ."

The selfish pick-and-choose theology, deciding which precepts given by Jesus Christ are worthy of honor and which of them are not is to be partial in obedience to the Gospel of Christ. To be only partly saved is to be wholly lost: "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." Ja.2:10. In essence, to do away with “one jot or one tittle” of the Law of Christ is to call Him a liar: "Heaven and earth shall pass away: but My words shall not pass away." “If thou wilt enter in to life, keep the commandments. Mark 13:31; Matt.19:17.

"I conclude, commanding, declaring, and pronouncing, to stand upon necessity of salvation, for every creature to be subject to me."

On the night of The Last Supper Christ forbid any religious dictatorship (or church/state union): "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But Ye shall not be so." Luke 22:25,26. Whenever Christians lord authority over men to enforce the worship of GOD, this is a sin in the eyes of heaven. The Apostles complimented the Savior’s words by saying that the use of tyranny violates the 6th Commandment, "Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him." "For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God." I Jn.3:15; Ja.1:20.

     The steps that led to this self-exalting religion masquerading as Christ’s Church on Earth will never be retraced. The prophecies on the fate of Rome and her daughters in the Protestant churches are clear.  And Revelation 13:11-17 declares that Protestant America will spearhead the final union of church and state and legislate into federal law the sins of Rome: sins whose origin goes back to the very beginning of self idolatry.

       Commandment Keepers invites every Christian to join the closing work of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and establish twelve member groups within your respective country, heralding the titles: Commandment Keepers Kenyan Assembly, British Assemby, Brazilian Assembly, etc.  As the Bible teaches, the redeemed of earth will come from "every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people." Rev.14:6. And all will have stood faithful to Christ's Words, "But if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments." Matt.19:17.
       To meet the specific cultural needs of the different peoples of the world, a custom tailored witness is vital for successful evangelism.  While the message of Salvation through the Creator/Christ is universal in its scope, people's cultural affections vary greatly from land to land.  What can bring tears of joy to one group can actually harden the hearts of another.
       To receive this ministry outline click "The Evangelists" below. It contains all the materials needed to succeed in this invaluable type of ministry.
       Two reasons for the need of small church companies at this time in history:
  1. There are six branch ministries, which cover all areas of the closing gospel work, providing each member with an invaluable task.  Teamed up in pairs for each of the branch ministries, none will sit on the sidelines, feeling useless, and where each have equal value to the success of the ministry's work. 
  2. Economic streamlining has become an essential factor in the closing work.  As America and other countries proceed in their place in Bible prophecy a structure of ministry must be in place to carry out the Savior's closing work on the minds and hearts of the people just at the time it is needed the most.  
       This efficient, low cost approach to the closing work will be lavished with GOD'S blessing.  Each of these small church companies will be given an eloquent, persuasive testimony by GOD: to share in the most privileged work on Earth: enlightening the world with His Glory: His redeeming love found in the truth, as the truth is in Jesus:" as Creator of heaven and earth; what He has done: as bearing the punishment for the sins of men; and what He is doing: interceding on behalf of His faithful children who are continuously accused of the devil; and what He will do: deliver His faithful children when He comes again. 
       Through His Presence, Guidance and Intervention, the faith of Bible literate and obedient Christians will swell to a lofty summit, preparing them for the coming of the LORD.  
       Lastly, no tithe is required except to budget your ministry's needs.
