    Peace [Church] and Safety [State]:

    Already the cry of "Peace", and 'Safety' [protection from terrorists [safety from extremists [which Romanism also includes 'fundamentalists' in the definition], 'natural' disasters [safety from global warming, climate change], etc, global economic stability [safety in money markets, etc]] ...

    1 Thessalonians 5:3 KJB - For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

    "... The Argentine-born Francis spoke in his native Spanish, through an interpreter. The pope gave Trump a signed-and-bound copy of his remarks from the last World Peace Day in September, plus a set of English-language translations of his papal writings including his 2015 encyclical on climate change. Trump is a noted climate change skeptic.

    “Well, I’ll be reading them,” Trump said. “We can use peace," he added. ..."

    "... Trump and the pope discussed terrorism and the radicalization of young people. ..."

    "... The audience with Francis came 124 days into his presidency, earlier than any of the 29 other meetings between a U.S. president and a pontiff. The previous record was held by President George H.W. Bush, who visited Pope John Paul II 127 days into his presidency in 1989. ..."

    "... [TRUMP tweeted after the meeting; 5:20 AM - 24 May 2017 · Italy ] Honor of a lifetime to meet His Holiness Pope Francis. I leave the Vatican more determined than ever to pursue PEACE in our world. ..." - https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...t-trump-meets-pope-frances-vatican/102091342/

    Again:

    "... The president gave the pope a case of books by Martin Luther King Jr., and the pope gave Donald Trump a medal by a Roman artist, inscribed with an olive branch.

    Francis explained that the branch is a symbol of peace, and Trump replied, "We can use peace."

    The pope also presented Trump with three books that he said he sends to all Catholics: one on family, one on the Gospels and one on "care of our common home, the environment." ... " - President Trump talks terrorism with Pope Francis, climate change with the Vatican

    Again:

    "... Neither Trump nor the Pope revealed what their conversation entailed, but readouts from the White House and the Vatican highlighted terrorism, climate change and peace as agenda items covered. ..." - Pope-Trump meeting agenda: Climate change, terrorism - CNNPolitics.com

    Revelation 13:17 KJB - And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

    Economic safety/stability -

    "... He gave Trump three bound papal documents that he has written that to some degree define his papacy and priorities. One focuses on the environment, demanding an end to a “structurally perverse” economic system that has turned Earth into an “immense pile of filth.” He frames climate change as an urgent moral crisis and blames global warming on an unfair, fossil fuel-based industrial model that harms the poor the most. ...

    ... A statement from the Vatican said that “satisfaction was expressed” at their “joint commitment in favor of life” and that there was hoped-for collaboration on health care, assistance to immigrants and protection of Christian communities in the Middle East. ..." - President Donald Trump and Pope Francis focus on peace | Northwest Herald

    Again:

    "... The Vatican has called for the establishment of a “global public authority” and “central world bank” to preside over all financial institutions.

    The Document “Toward Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of a Global Public Authority” was released by the Vatican’s Justice and Peace Department on Oct. 24.

    The document called for the creation of a “supranational authority” that would have “universal jurisdiction” to guide economic policies. It goes on to lament the wealth disparity among various nations. ..." - Vatican calls for “one world currency” system

    Consider:

    -

    It was foretold:

    "... The work of the people of God is to prepare for the events of the future, which will soon come upon them with blinding force. In the world gigantic monopolies will be formed. Men will bind themselves together in unions that will wrap them in the folds of the enemy. A few men will combine to grasp all the means to be obtained in certain lines of business. Trades unions will be formed, and those who refuse to join these unions will be marked men.—Letter 26, 1903. ..." - Country Living [E.G. White], page 10
    A few years later, the greatest Monopoly on earth was formed, at Jekyll Island, the 'Federal Reserve System'. Others are still in forming ...

    "... There are not many, even among educators and statesmen, who comprehend the causes that underlie the present state of society. Those who hold the reins of government are not able to solve the problem of moral corruption, poverty, pauperism, and increasing crime. They are struggling in vain to place business operations on a more secure basis. If men would give more heed to the teaching of God's word, they would find a solution of the problems that perplex them ..." - Testimonies for the Church, Volume 9 [E.G. White], page 13.3

    This present world, and its corrupt system of things, is almost finished.

    Revelation 17:1 KJB - And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:​

    Revelation 17:2 KJB - With whom the kings of earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.​

    The corrupt [whore, unfaithful, idolatrous] church [woman] is seen in "fornication" with "the kings of the earth" [the rulers of state-power].

    This "woman" has a problem, and it is her love of sin.

    She loves to "fornicate", and is even addicted to this sin. She refuses to repent [Revelation 2:21 KJB].

    She loves to murder, for she kills the saints and makes open and secret war upon them.

    She is covetous, and craves gold, precious stones, purple and scarlet.

    If one looks carefully, she is seen in violation of all Ten Commandments. Even as she is manifesting the "mystery of iniquity" (as her "father" before her (John 8:44 KJB)), and is headed by "the man of sin", that "son of perdition".

    Yet, notice what comes of her "fornication" (unholy, unsanctified, union/atonement) with "the kings of the earth", even as she has many harlot daughters about her, but something more comes of this illicit union of Church and State:

    A "child" is born of this union.

    The "child of the papacy", will be a Church and State amalgamation.

    It is the foretold, "National (the later, international) Sunday Law".

    "National (State) Sunday (Church) law (State)".

    "... Protestants now urge that the resurrection of Christ on Sunday made it the Christian Sabbath. But Scripture evidence is lacking. No such honor was given to the day by Christ or his apostles. The observance of Sunday as a Christian institution had its origins in that "mystery of lawlessness" [2 Thessalonians 2:7 R.V.] which, even in Paul's day, had begun its work. Where and when did the Lord adopt this child of the papacy? What valid reason can be given for a change which the Scriptures do not sanction? ..." - The Great Controversy 1888, page 54.1
    As type foretold:

    Ezekiel 8:16 KJB - And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.​

    About 25 men, these being 24 + 1, priesthood, and they had their back to the Law of God, and did not worship God, the Creator [Exodus 20:8-11 KJB], but rather instead, faced the east, towards the sunrising and the sun thereof, worshipping the creation, and manmade religion.

    Turn your eyes toward the Temple of the LORD in heaven, and see what is therein that real place - Revelation 11:19; 15:5 KJB

    What's in the real Ark in the real Most Holy Place of the True Tabernacle, which the LORD pitched and not man? - Hebrews 8:2 KJB

    Psalms 89:34 KJB

    What of that specific and "Holy" [Exodus 20:8 KJB] commandment therein?

    Beware, that ye are not a fulfillment of this verse - 2 Peter 2:21 KJB.

    Open your Bibles to Matthew 8:23-27; Mark 4:35-41; Luke 8:22-25 KJB; more specifically the Mark passages, and consider them in the light of Ecclesiastes 1:9; 3:15 and 1 Corinthians 15:44-46 KJB, in that history is to repeat, and the natural explains the spiritual, and that Antichrist will counterfeit everything that Jesus did.

    In those passages we see Jesus get into a boat, a ship, with his disciples and set sail across the Sea of Galilee [Tiberius, etc], and while Jesus is asleep a massive storm, with terrific winds, sweeps over them suddenly, and the disciples do all in their own power and strength to bail out the incoming waters, and to forcefully row through it. They are about to sink, when they turn to Jesus and wake him up, and Jesus stands in the midst and says to the raging winds and sea, waters, PEACE, BE STILL, and there follows calm, tranquility, peace and stability, even then, they are suddenly safe, and in awe, and the disciples worship him, for they see that Jesus controls these things by his very word.

    Now, Antichrist is about to counterfeit this miracle. Watch and see:

    The "sea", being a bowl or basin, in which "water" accumulates [Genesis 1:9,10,22; Isaiah 11:9; Jeremiah 52:17,20; Revelation 4:6, 15:2 KJB], which "water" is representative of peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues [Isaiah 57:20; Revelation 17:15; Psalms 65:7; Isaiah 17:12,13; Jeremiah 51:42 KJB, etc]. It can also represent the bowl or basin (Laver) of the Sanctuary [Psalms 77:13,19 KJB and 1 Kings 7:23-25,39,44; 2 Kings 25:13,16; 1 Chronicles 18:8; 2 Chronicles 4:2-4,6,19 KJB].

    In the days of Joseph, money failed in the land of Egypt (represents the secular world and worldliness, the contrast to Canaan, promised land), and money failed in the land of Canaan (the religious world, populated by God's peoples, the heavenly minded), see Genesis 47:15,16 KJB.

    History is repeating itself, and we, who are truly Joseph's, will know what needs to be done, even as Daniel in Babylon. Yet, the world will seek the miracles of Antichrist, not desiring to give up their sinful ways.

    Just as Jesus was in the boat, so too now Antichrist.

    The "boat", or "ship", represents the 'houses' which carry cargo, driven by winds, even the fierce winds of war, strife, competition, etc (which merchants cause wars, that they may play both sided to always win, and reap rewards, the Hegelian, Jesuitical principle, Ordo ab Chao (Order comes through Chaos/Revolution)), and the ship trades upon the "seas", the "waters", and is thus the ECONOMIC and FINANCIAL entities, dealing in trade, commerce, money markets, stock markets, banks, monopolies (like the Federal Reserve System, Central Banks, the mint cartels), business operations, merchants of the earth, the masters of the Gold, Silver, Brass, Iron, Tin, and precious metals, ores, things, and even all valuable commodities, even animals, people as slaves, and weather control, for profit (1 Kings 9:26-28; 2 Chronicles 8:18, 9:20,21; Psalms 104:25,26, 107:23; Proverbs 31:14; Isaiah 60:9; Ezekiel 27:9,12-36; Daniel 11:30; Jeremiah 50:37; Luke 5:7 ("partners", ie. in business); James 3:4 ("winds"); Revelation 18:3,11-19,23 KJB, etc.)

    Yet, right now the money markets are going up and down as the tempest tossed waves, and water is coming in, and though the persons in the boat are struggling with all their might, the whole system is about to go under and drown.

    What will those in the boat do, seeing no hope in sight, and men's knowledge and strength fail? They will turn to a spiritual leader, whom they think can deliver them, one that they think is Christ-like. They will turn to the Antichrist, because they are deceived.

    Antichrist will arise and pronounce over the system of things, PEACE, BE STILL (and SAFETY, CALM, TRANQUILITY, STABILITY), and it will appear to work ... for a season ... but scripture says, sudden destruction will follow this Nation Sunday Law and market, climate change legislation.

    They are actually fighting against the true God of Heaven, even the Lamb.

    "... The world is no more ready to credit the message for this time than were the Jews to receive the Saviour's warning concerning Jerusalem. Come when it may, the day of God will come unawares to the ungodly. When life is going on in its unvarying round; when men are absorbed in pleasure, in business, in traffic, in money-making; when religious leaders are magnifying the world's progress and enlightenment, and the people are lulled in a false security--then, as the midnight thief steals within the unguarded dwelling, so shall sudden destruction come upon the careless and ungodly, "and they shall not escape." 1 Thessalonians 5:3 KJB ..." - The Great Controversy (1911), page 38.1
    Look up Luke 21:25 KJB, see "perplexity", as it means, 'no way out', 'no human solution will solve', 'confounded', 'all things tried and failed, not knowing what to do'.

    There is only one Way out. Jesus (John 14:6,15; Exodus 20:6 KJB), see John 14:1-3 KJB.

    Consider, even Francis's [Jesuit] encyclical [Color coded for clarity] Laudato Si - Laudato si' (24 May 2015) | Francis

    "Praise be to you, my Lord, through our Sister, Mother Earth ..."​

    I hope all do realize that "he" just connected the 'gospel' [of Rome] to the [save the] planet and environmental salvation ideology. It is nothing new with Rome, but now more prominent, and open.

    "... This is why the earth herself, burdened and laid waste, is among the most abandoned and maltreated of our poor; she “groans in travail” (Rom 8:22) ..."​

    For in it, "he" ties the worship of the Romish Sunday [false Sabbath] and their so-called 'gospel' of religious [not secular, but Religious] 'humanism' ["an authentic human ecology" [Francis I. Laudato Si. May 24, 2015] and "a truly human life and to fulfill their family obligations in a worthy manner" [John XXIII.Mater Et Magistra. 1961]], and the violation thereof, to natural disasters [called global warming, etc] and thus says to all the people of earth:

    "... This sister now cries out to us because of the harm we have inflicted on her by our irresponsible use and abuse of the goods with which God has endowed her ..."

    "... Now, faced as we are with global environmental deterioration, I wish to address every person living on this planet. ..."

    "... human life is itself a gift which must be defended from various forms of debasement. ..."

    "... Authentic human development has a moral character. ..."

    "... Our goal is not to amass information or to satisfy curiosity, but rather to become painfully aware, to dare to turn what is happening to the world into our own personal suffering and thus to discover what each of us can do about it. ..."the natural environment

    "... 48. The human environment and the natural environment deteriorate together; we cannot adequately combat environmental degradation unless we attend to causes related to human and social degradation. ... Today, however, we have to realize that a true ecological approach always becomes a social approach; it must integrate questions of justice in debates on the environment, so as to hear both the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor. ..."

    "... Here we see how environmental deterioration and human and ethical degradation are closely linked. ..."

    "... Still, we can see signs that things are now reaching a breaking point, due to the rapid pace of change and degradation; these are evident in large-scale natural disasters as well as social and even financial crises, for the world’s problems cannot be analyzed or explained in isolation. ... “If we scan the regions of our planet, we immediately see that humanity has disappointed God’s expectations”.[35]"

    "... Concern for the environment thus needs to be joined to a sincere love for our fellow human beings and an unwavering commitment to resolving the problems of society. ..."

    "... When we speak of the “environment”, what we really mean is a relationship existing between nature and the society which lives in it. ..."

    "... We are faced not with two separate crises, one environmental and the other social, but rather with one complex crisis which is both social and environmental. ..."

    "... We urgently need a humanism capable of bringing together the different fields of knowledge, including economics, in the service of a more integral and integrating vision. ..."​

    The connection to Moral Law ["indisputable truths to guide our lives"]:

    "... Pope Benedict asked us to recognize that the natural environment has been gravely damaged by our irresponsible behaviour. The social environment has also suffered damage. Both are ultimately due to the same evil: the notion that there are no indisputable truths to guide our lives, and hence human freedom is limitless. ..."

    "... At one extreme, we find those who doggedly uphold the myth of progress and tell us that ecological problems will solve themselves simply with the application of new technology and without any need for ethical considerations or deep change. ..."​

    The connection of natural disasters [called "extreme weather events"] to "lifestyle" [the way one lives, ie does all things "human", such as "work", "rest", and "worship" [keep reading] and "when" they do those things according to Romish policies]:

    "... A very solid scientific consensus indicates that we are presently witnessing a disturbing warming of the climatic system. In recent decades this warming has been accompanied by a constant rise in the sea level and, it would appear, by an increase of extreme weather events, even if a scientifically determinable cause cannot be assigned to each particular phenomenon. Humanity is called to recognize the need for changes of lifestyle, production and consumption, in order to combat this warming or at least the human causes which produce or aggravate it. ..."

    [Thus the mentality of Pharoah [King of the South, Daniel 11:40, Secular Humanism/Atheism, etc, Egypt being the World] is that "get you unto your burdens." [Exodus5:4] [work, work, work, and no rest, "... Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens." [Exodus 5:5]] is what is harming the environment, and so because of this supposed violation of [Rome's] "Moral" law, the false Ten Commandments of the Traditional Catechetical Formula, in "human" "lifestyle", with the [false sabbath] Sunday being violated. This will be the reason given for the repeated calls to join in the "new and universal solidarity". They have called for, and will call again for legislation in all the world [beginning in the USA first at state, local levels, then at a national level, following thereafter to all nations] to be passed to rest on Sundays, that the environment might be saved, and it will "look good" to swallow [think Genesis], but it is wickedness in disguise [think serpent], even as that messenger of light [2 Corinthians 11:14] calls for "peace, peace" when there is no peace with the violation of God's Law, Exodus 20:1-17 in the Holy 7th Day the Sabbath of the LORD thy God, and all the others. Man's law or God's Law, which you will obey? Which is sin to violate?]​

    To be continued ...

    Laudato Si encyclical of Francis continued ...

    "... Today, the analysis of environmental problems cannot be separated from the analysis of human, family, work-related and urban contexts, nor from how individuals relate to themselves, which leads in turn to how they relate to others and to the environment. There is an interrelation between ecosystems and between the various spheres of social interaction ..."

    "... If everything is related, then the health of a society’s institutions has consequences for the environment and the quality of human life. “Every violation of solidarity and civic friendship harms the environment”.[116] In this sense, social ecology is necessarily institutional, and gradually extends to the whole of society, from the primary social group, the family, to the wider local, national and international communities. Within each social stratum, and between them, institutions develop to regulate human relationships. Anything which weakens those institutions has negative consequences, such as injustice, violence and loss of freedom. ... Whether in the administration of the state, the various levels of civil society, or relationships between individuals themselves, lack of respect for the law is becoming more common."

    "... Human ecology also implies another profound reality: the relationship between human life and the moral law, which is inscribed in our nature and is necessary for the creation of a more dignified environment. ..."

    "... Outstanding among those groups is the family, as the basic cell of society. Finally, the common good calls for social peace, the stability and security provided by a certain order which cannot be achieved without particular concern for distributive justice; whenever this is violated, violence always ensues. Society as a whole, and the state in particular, are obliged to defend and promote the common good. ..."

    "... Doomsday predictions can no longer be met with irony or disdain. We may well be leaving to coming generations debris, desolation and filth. The pace of consumption, waste and environmental change has so stretched the planet’s capacity that our contemporary lifestyle, unsustainable as it is, can only precipitate catastrophes, such as those which even now periodically occur in different areas of the world. ..."

    "... The mindset which leaves no room for sincere concern for the environment is the same mindset which lacks concern for the inclusion of the most vulnerable members of society. ..."

    "... Disinterested concern for others, and the rejection of every form of self-centeredness and self-absorption, are essential if we truly wish to care for our brothers and sisters and for the natural environment. These attitudes also attune us to the moral imperative of assessing the impact of our every action and personal decision on the world around us. If we can overcome individualism, we will truly be able to develop a different lifestyle and bring about significant changes in society. ..."​

    [ie, if anyone is seen to be going against this 'all get together' and especially the plot of protecting the environment through Sunday sacredness [rest] to be legislated by laws/government, will be seen as a "mindset" against the "common good", and eventually a danger to all, ie, "selfish", "self-centered", "self-absorbed", "individualistic", and thus a threat [terrorist/fundamentalist] to the "moral" [church] 'common good' as well as to the global commonality ["solidarity"] [state] of societal, local, National and International interests along all lines, ecological, technological, economical, etc.]​

    The tie-in with "sacrament" [thus dealing with salvation, according to Rome]:

    "... As Christians, we are also called “to accept the world as a sacrament of communion ..."

    "... So what they all need is an “ecological conversion” ..."
    To be continued ...

    Laudato Si encyclical of Francis continued ...

    "Francis" of Assissi and others pantheism, and panentheism [though they say "do not possess His fullness", do obviously then in some degree] and mysticisim/contemplation [possession]:

    "... By contrast, if we feel intimately united with all that exists, then sobriety and care will well up spontaneously. ..."

    "... Sir Brother Sun ... Sister Moon and the stars ... Brother Wind ... Sister Water ... Brother Fire ..."

    "... 88. The bishops of Brazil have pointed out that nature as a whole not only manifests God but is also a locus of his presence. The Spirit of life dwells in every living creature and calls us to enter into relationship with him.[65] ..."

    "... The very flowers of the field and the birds which his human eyes contemplated and admired are now imbued with his radiant presence. ..."

    "... The universe unfolds in God, who fills it completely. Hence, there is a mystical meaning to be found in a leaf, in a mountain trail, in a dewdrop, in a poor person’s face. [159] ... also to discover God in all things. ... to encounter God in creatures outside ourselves ..."

    "... This is not because the finite things of this world are really divine, but because the mystic experiences the intimate connection between God and all beings, and thus feels that “all things are God”. [162] ..."​

    [If "all things are God", sin, sinner, wickedness would also be included, including Satan himself, ye "shall be as gods", indeed ...]

    "... All-powerful God, you are present in the whole universe and in the smallest of your creatures. ..."

    [God is not in the sinner.]

    A citation of "Scripture", [Francis I] cites apocryphal works, Wisdom and Sirach.

    False baptism:

    "... Water poured over the body of a child in Baptism is a sign of new life. ..."​

    Culmination of errors [in the Roman transubstantiation ["... unsurpassable expression when God himself became man and gave himself as food for his creatures ..."], cast to the earth] in the Roman Sunday Mass, thus desecration of Sunday is destruction of the Eucharist, which is destruction to the family, ecology, environment, etc, etc:

    "... It is in the Eucharist that all that has been created finds its greatest exaltation. ... He comes not from above, but from within ... Son, present in the Eucharist ... Thus, the Eucharist is also a source of light and motivation for our concerns for the environment, directing us to be stewards of all creation."

    "... 237. On Sunday, our participation in the Eucharist has special importance. Sunday, like the Jewish Sabbath, is meant to be a day which heals our relationships with God, with ourselves, with others and with the world. Sunday is the day of the Resurrection, the “first day” of the new creation, whose first fruits are the Lord’s risen humanity, the pledge of the final transfiguration of all created reality. It also proclaims “man’s eternal rest in God”.[168] In this way, Christian spirituality incorporates the value of relaxation and festivity. We tend to demean contemplative rest as something unproductive and unnecessary, but this is to do away with the very thing which is most important about work: its meaning. We are called to include in our work a dimension of receptivity and gratuity, which is quite different from mere inactivity. Rather, it is another way of working, which forms part of our very essence. It protects human action from becoming empty activism; it also prevents that unfettered greed and sense of isolation which make us seek personal gain to the detriment of all else. The law of weekly rest forbade work on the seventh day, “so that your ox and your donkey may have rest, and the son of your maidservant, and the stranger, may be refreshed” (Ex 23:12). Rest opens our eyes to the larger picture and gives us renewed sensitivity to the rights of others. And so the day of rest, centred on the Eucharist, sheds it light on the whole week, and motivates us to greater concern for nature and the poor. ..."​

    New World Order, the 'gospel' of "change" and "revolution" [Ordo ab Chao, Order through Revolution, WE ARE CHANGE, etc [is JESUIT run, controlled, BEWARE, read Proverbs 24:21 KJB - My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change: ; see Daniel 7:25;p KJB - "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws ..." ]]:

    "... The urgent challenge to protect our common home includes a concern to bring the whole human family together to seek a sustainable and integral development, for we know that things can change. ..."

    "... We require a new and universal solidarity. ..."

    "... We need to strengthen the conviction that we are one single human family. ..."

    "... An authentic humanity, calling for a new synthesis ..."

    "... All of this shows the urgent need for us to move forward in a bold cultural revolution. ..."

    "... We need to develop a new synthesis ..."

    "... Others will then no longer be seen as strangers, but as part of a “we” which all of us are working to create. ..."

    "... Interdependence obliges us to think of one world with a common plan. ..."

    "... A global consensus is essential for confronting the deeper problems, which cannot be resolved by unilateral actions on the part of individual countries. ..."​

    To be continued ...

    Laudato Si encyclical of Francis continued ...

    Marian blasphemy:

    "... 241. Mary, the Mother who cared for Jesus, now cares with maternal affection and pain for this wounded world. Just as her pierced heart mourned the death of Jesus, so now she grieves for the sufferings of the crucified poor and for the creatures of this world laid waste by human power. Completely transfigured, she now lives with Jesus, and all creatures sing of her fairness. She is the Woman, “clothed in the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars” (Rev 12:1). Carried up into heaven, she is the Mother and Queen of all creation. In her glorified body, together with the Risen Christ, part of creation has reached the fullness of its beauty. She treasures the entire life of Jesus in her heart (cf. Lk 2:19,51), and now understands the meaning of all things. Hence, we can ask her to enable us to look at this world with eyes of wisdom. ..."​

    Re-education [read brainwashing/mind control/possession] for “ecological citizenship” by a process of "adequate" [read ''force' of law' in schooling [yes, your children will be/and already are being taught this] means:

    "... If the laws are to bring about significant, long-lasting effects, the majority of the members of society must be adequately motivated to accept them, and personally transformed to respond. ..."

    "... Ecological education can take place in a variety of settings: at school, in families, in the media, in catechesis and elsewhere. Good education plants seeds when we are young, and these continue to bear fruit throughout life. ..."

    "... Because the stakes are so high, we need institutions empowered to impose penalties for damage inflicted on the environment. ..."​

    Legislation [laws to be passed], and New ["moral"] Leadership to control it:

    "... We lack leadership capable of striking out on new paths and meeting the needs of the present with concern for all and without prejudice towards coming generations. The establishment of a legal framework which can set clear boundaries and ensure the protection of ecosystems has become indispensable; otherwise, the new power structures based on the techno-economic paradigm may overwhelm not only our politics but also freedom and justice. ..."​

    The anti-scriptural lie of [theistic] "biological evolution" and "emergence":

    "... Although change is part of the working of complex systems, the speed with which human activity has developed contrasts with the naturally slow pace of biological evolution. ..."

    "... Human beings, even if we postulate a process of evolution, also possess a uniqueness which cannot be fully explained by the evolution of other open systems. ..."

    "... The sheer novelty involved in the emergence of a personal being within a material universe presupposes a direct action of God ..."​

    The denial of literal history of Genesis and the confusion of "creation accounts" [plural] [and the Jesuits also deny the physical Resurrection of Jesus Christ, citations coming as time allows, from Francis I, from Benedict XVI, etc]:

    "... The creation accounts in the book of Genesis contain, in their own symbolic and narrative language ..."

    "... The biblical accounts of creation ..."​

    Extinction of species [environmentalism]:

    "... Because of us, thousands of species will no longer give glory to God by their very existence, nor convey their message to us. We have no such right. ..."​

    Tied to "the seventh day", "the" [definite] Sabbath Commandment [but notice they also call it "a" [indefinite] Sabbath], and calling the Bible "biblical tradition":

    "... Along these same lines, rest on the seventh day is meant not only for human beings, but also so “that your ox and your donkey may have rest” (Ex 23:12). ..."

    "... Although “the wickedness of man was great in the earth” (Gen 6:5) and the Lord “was sorry that he had made man on the earth” (Gen 6:6), nonetheless, through Noah, who remained innocent and just, God decided to open a path of salvation. In this way he gave humanity the chance of a new beginning. All it takes is one good person to restore hope! The biblical tradition clearly shows that this renewal entails recovering and respecting the rhythms inscribed in nature by the hand of the Creator. We see this, for example, in the law of the Sabbath. On the seventh day, God rested from all his work. He commanded Israel to set aside each seventh day as a day of rest, a Sabbath, (cf. Gen 2:2-3; Ex 16:23; 20:10). ..."​

    Thus "relationship" [family time, thus rest day [they promote their false sabbath of Sunday] together] tied to environmental and ecological "crisis":

    "... If the present ecological crisis is one small sign of the ethical, cultural and spiritual crisis of modernity, we cannot presume to heal our relationship with nature and the environment without healing all fundamental human relationships. ..."​

    Thus "lifestyle", "work" and "rest" affect relationships, ecology, environment, and the people need to band together to put "pressure" on legislators [law-makers]:

    "... We were created with a vocation to work. ..."

    "... A change in lifestyle could bring healthy pressure to bear on those who wield political, economic and social power. ..."

    "... Today, in a word, “the issue of environmental degradation challenges us to examine our lifestyle”. [147] ..."​

    The Great Controversy, page 592 again:

    "... Those who honor the Bible Sabbath will be denounced as enemies of law and order, as breaking down the moral restraints of society, causing anarchy and corruption, and calling down the judgments of God upon the earth. Their conscientious scruples will be pronounced obstinacy, stubbornness, and contempt of authority. They will be accused of disaffection toward the government. Ministers who deny the obligation of the divine law will present from the pulpit the duty of yielding obedience to the civil authorities as ordained of God. In legislative halls and courts of justice, commandment-keepers will be misrepresented and condemned. A false coloring will be given to their words; the worst construction will be put upon their motives.

    As the Protestant churches reject the clear, scriptural arguments in defense of God’s law, they will long to silence those whose faith they cannot overthrow by the Bible. Though they blind their own eyes to the fact, they are now adopting a course which will lead to the persecution of those who conscientiously refuse to do what the rest of the Christian world are doing, and acknowledge the claims of the papal Sabbath.

    The dignitaries of church and State will unite to bribe, persuade, or compel all classes to honor the Sunday. The lack of divine authority will be supplied by oppressive enactments. Political corruption is destroying love of justice and regard for truth; and even in free America, rulers and legislators, in order to secure public favor, will yield to the popular demand for a law enforcing Sunday observance. Liberty of conscience, which has cost so great a sacrifice, will no longer be respected. In the soon-coming conflict we shall see exemplified the prophet’s words: “The dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” [Revelation 12:17.] ..."
    To be continued ...

    Going to take away your ability to burn wood and be off of 'the Grid', too bad all that incense of Rome won't be extinguished, and even your well water and spring water need "regulation or controls" [ie state level], and land lockdown [no go zones, except for the state level], and you cannot actually own anything [contrary to Scripture]:

    "... People take sick, for example, from breathing high levels of smoke from fuels used in cooking or heating. ..."

    "... Underground water sources in many places are threatened by the pollution produced in certain mining, farming and industrial activities, especially in countries lacking adequate regulation or controls. ..."

    "... Some countries have made significant progress in establishing sanctuaries on land and in the oceans where any human intervention is prohibited which might modify their features or alter their original structures. ..."

    "... The Christian tradition has never recognized the right to private property as absolute or inviolable, and has stressed the social purpose of all forms of private property. ... a social mortgage on all private property ... apart from the ownership of property ..."​

    The plague of blood identified:

    "... Some studies warn that an acute water shortage may occur within a few decades unless urgent action is taken. The environmental repercussions could affect billions of people..."​

    Hypocrisy! [can anyone say, 'Inquisition'???, the Head of the Inquisition, was [and more than likely still is], Joseph Ratizinger [Benedict XVI], the Head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith [in the same Inquisitorial building]]-

    "... the array of technology which ... and other totalitarian regimes have employed to kill millions of people ..."​

    Blames the past errors and persecutions, etc, on "cultural limitations":

    "... If a mistaken understanding of our own principles has at times led us to justify mistreating nature, to exercise tyranny over creation, to engage in war, injustice and acts of violence, we believers should acknowledge that by so doing we were not faithful to the treasures of wisdom which we have been called to protect and preserve. Cultural limitations in different eras often affected the perception of these ethical and spiritual treasures ..."​

    Read The Great Controversy, page 605, by sister E. G. White, once more.

    Brothers and sisters, the end is upon you, and the final events will be rapid ones.

    Thus I leave you with, from his [Francis I] own 'hand', Nihil Obstat, Imprimatur:

    "... Doomsday predictions can no longer be met with irony or disdain ..."

    "... Is it reasonable and enlightened to dismiss certain writings simply because they arose in the context of religious belief? ..."
    Laudato Si, explanation, ended.

    The colors are for a specific reason, to tie the passages together in their moral, humanistic, ecological, destructive, antichristian [Papal], etc areas.

    Please read it, brother. Take this seriously. Do not skim. Prove all things.

    I, by the grace of God, am about to post a New topic, on the specific structure of Daniel and Revelation, and show line upon line, exactly what it says about what has been, what is now, and what is coming.

    Remember what was said:

    Consider carefully what the disciples were doing in that storm-tossed boat? They were taking on water, and desperately, and hopelessly bailing out water, but it miserably fails.

    What do you call a business or government that is financially failing?

    That which is about to GO UNDER.

    What do you call the financial aide to such entities?

    A BAIL OUT

    Brothers and sisters, the bail outs will fail soon. They will then turn to Antichrist and the New New Deal.

    I have told you beforehand that when it does come to pass you might believe ...

    2 Thessalonians 2:4 KJB - 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.​

    When Paul says, “so that he as God”, it means 'so that like as [or in comparison, or equality to] God', see also verses like: Matthew 6:10,12,29, 7:29, 8:13, 10:16,25, 12:13 KJB.

    When Paul refers to this “sitteth”, it is translated from [G2523], “καθίζω”, “kathizō” [another related word, [G2516], “εκαθεζομην”, “ekathezomen” in Matthew 26:55; Luke 2:46; John 4:6, 11:20, 20:12; Acts 6:15 KJB] though it can mean to simply sit down, rest upon [Matthew 5:1, 13:48, 26:36; Mark 9:35, 12:41, 14:32; Luke 4:20, 5:3, 14:28,31, 16:6, 24:49; Acts 2:3 KJB], it also refers to a position of authority, seated, ruling over [such as a classroom [Mark 9:35; Luke 5:3; John 8:2 KJB], people, kingdom, domain], etc, see:

    Matthew 19:28 KJB - And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

    Matthew 20:21 KJB - And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom.

    Matthew 20:23 KJB - And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.

    Matthew 23:2 KJB - Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:

    Matthew 25:31 KJB - When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

    Mark 10:37 KJB - They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.

    Mark 10:40 KJB - But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.

    Mark 11:2 KJB - And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.

    See also:

    Zechariah 9:9 KJB - Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

    Mark 11:7 KJB - And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.

    Mark 16:19 KJB - So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

    Luke 19:30 KJB - Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.

    Luke 22:30 KJB - That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

    John 12:14 KJB - And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

    Acts 2:30 KJB - Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

    Acts 25:6 KJB - And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought.

    Acts 25:17 KJB - Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.

    Ephesians 1:20 KJB - Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

    Hebrews 1:3 KJB - Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

    Hebrews 8:1 KJB - Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;

    Hebrews 10:12 KJB - But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

    Hebrews 12:2 KJB - Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

    Revelation 3:21 KJB - To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

    Revelation 20:4 KJB - And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.​

    Furthermore, we may read from official Roman Catholic sources the following:

    Online Roman Catholic Encyclopedia; section “C”, “Cathedra” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Cathedra

    Cathedra; (1) The chair or throne (thronos) of a bishop in his cathedral church, on which he presides at solemn functions. ... A good idea of the arrangement may be had from the catacomb frescoes representing Christ seated on a throne surrounded by the apostles ... By a definition "ex cathedra" is meant a formal infallible decision of the pope, obligatory on all the faithful. ...”​

    Online Roman Catholic Encyclopedia; section “C”, “Cathedral” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Cathedral

    “The chief church of a diocese, in which the bishop has his throne (cathedra) and close to which is his residence; it is, properly speaking, the bishop's church, wherein he presides, teaches, and conducts worship for the whole Christian community. The word is derived from the Greek kathedra through the Latin cathedra, throne, elevated seat. In early ecclesiastical literature it always conveyed the idea of authority. ... the cathedra was the principal symbol of authority. ... The word cathedra, so expressive in the language of antiquity, has gradually been replaced in liturgical usage, by throne (thronus) or seat (sedes). ... Canonists compare to a spiritual marriage the union of a bishop with his church, and although this expression may be truer with respect to the church as understood in the moral sense than to the cathedral, it is nevertheless not inappropriate. They say that the bishop should love his cathedral, adorn and embellish it, and never neglect it. Metaphors apart, the bishop receives his cathedral as his "title" (titulus) or right; he is its governor (rector) and its head. He should take possession of it by a solemn entrance into his episcopal city and by the ceremony of enthronement (inthronisatio) as prescribed in the Roman Pontifical and the "Caeremoniale Episcoporum", (I, c. ii) in so far, at least, as custom will permit.”​

    Online Roman Catholic Encyclopedia; section “E”, “Ex Cathedra” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Ex Cathedra

    Literally “from the chair”, a theological term which signifies authoritative teaching and is more particularly applied to the definitions given by the Roman pontiff. Originally the name of the seat occupied by a professor or a bishop, cathedra was used later on to denote the magisterium, or teaching authority. The phrase ex cathedra occurs in the writings of the medieval theologians, and more frequently in the discussions which arose after the Reformation in regard to the papal prerogatives. But its present meaning was formally determined by the Vatican Council, Sess. IV, Const. de Ecclesiâ Christi, c. iv: “We teach and define that it is a dogma Divinely revealed that the Roman pontiff when he speaks ex cathedra, that is when in discharge of the office of pastor and doctor of all Christians, by virtue of his supreme Apostolic authority, he defines a doctrine regarding faith or morals to be held by the universal Church, by the Divine assistance promised to him in Blessed Peter, is possessed of that infallibility with which the Divine Redeemer willed that his Church should be endowed in defining doctrine regarding faith or morals, and that therefore such definitions of the Roman pontiff are of themselves and not from the consent of the Church irreformable.””

    Let us see that closer:

    “... "from the chair" ... signifies ... authoritative teaching given by the Roman Pontiff ... when he speaks ex cathedra ... in discharge of the office of pastor and doctor of all Christians, by virtue of his supreme ... authority ... is possesed of that infallibility ... in defining doctrine ... in faith or morals ... are of themselves and not ... irreformable.” [quoted/sourced above], and faith and morals, deals with what one believes [“...for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.” Romans 14:23 KJB] and God's Law [“Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.” [1 John 3:4 KJB]].​

    Counterfeit [of God sitting on the Great White Throne, surrounded by four living Creatures, etc, etc], etc.:

    Notice where this 'pope' is sitting, on a throne between Two Cherubim, just as was the Shekinah Glory of God resting above the Ark [representing the Throne of God] in the Most Holy Place of the True Sanctuary:

    Roman Catholic Online Encyclopedia; “A”; “Antichrist” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Antichrist

    Antichrist (Greek Antichristos). ... The word Antichrist occurs only in the Johannine Epistles; but there are so-called real parallelisms to these occurrences in the Apocalypse, in the Pauline Epistles, and less explicit ones in the Gospels and the Book of Daniel. ...”​

    Roman Catholic Online Encyclopedia; “S”; “Sacrifice” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Sacrifice

    ... anti ... (in the place of …) ...”​

    Since the term “AntiChrist” is also related to the “man of sin” and there would be “many”, a line of successions [as is indicated] which all stand 'in the place of, or takes the place of Jesus Christ on earth' then should not this name be easily applied to this Roman ecclesiastical system and that singular position on earth which is over it all?

    It can readily and easily be applied by going from Greek to Latin:

    Roman Catholic Online Encyclopedia; “V”; “Vicar of Christ” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Vicar of Christ

    “(Latin Vicarius Christi).

    A title of the pope implying his supreme and universal primacy, both of honour and of jurisdiction, over the Church of Christ. ...”​

    Roman Catholic Online Encyclopedia; “V”; “Vicar” - http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15401a.htm

    Vicar

    (Latin vicarius, from vice, “instead of”) …”​

    What do we immediately notice between the Greek and Latin?

    Greek: Anti (in the place of, instead of) Christos (Christ, Anointed)

    Latin: Vicarius (in the place of, instead of) Christi (Christ, Anointed)​

    Does Rome's own definition of the “Vicarius Christi”, “Vicar of Jesus Christ on earth” and “Vicarius Filii Dei” actually mean that the doctrinal and official position of the Pope is that he “stands in the place of Jesus Christ [the Son of God] on Earth”, or that the position of the Pope “takes the place of Christ [the Son of God] on earth”?

    Yes it does.

    Roman Catholic Online Encyclopedia; “C”; “Church” - CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Church

    “... It will be enough, however, to refer to the evidence contained in the epistles of St. Ignatius, Bishop of Antioch, himself a disciple of the Apostles. In these epistles (about A.D. 107) he again and again asserts that the supremacy of the bishop is of Divine institution and belongs to the Apostolic constitution of the Church. He goes so far as to affirm that the bishop stands in the place of Christ Himself. …”​

    Yes, it has, especially according to official Roman Catholic sources.

    "...

    "... In our examination of this subject we shall first consult Roman Catholic authorities to ascertain what sacred title they apply to the pope to denote his official position and authority. Any one at all familiar with authentic Catholic authors knows that their paramount and constant claim for the pope is that Christ appointed St. Peter to be His vicar, or representative on earth, and that each succeeding pope is the lawful successor of St. Peter, and is therefore the "Vicar of the Son of God" on earth. This official title in Latin (the official language of the Catholic Church) is "Vicarius Filii Dei." We find this title used officially in Roman Catholic canon law, from medieval times down to the present. In the, earliest collection of canon law we read: {1943 CE, FAFA 219.1} ..." - Christian Edwardson (1873-1944)​

    "Beatus Petrus in terris Vicarius Filii Dei videtur esse constutus." - "Decretum Gratiani," prima pars, dist. xcvi.

    Translated into English this would read:

    "Blessed Peter is seen to have been constituted vicar of the Son of God on the earth." - "Decretum of Gratian," part 1, div. 96, column 472, first published at Bologna about 1148, and reprinted in 1555. Translation by Christopher B. Coleman, Ph. D, in "The Treatise of Lorenzo Valla on the Donation of Constantine," p. 13. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1922. {1943 CE, FAFA 219.2}​

    The Catholic Encyclopedia says of Gratian:

    "He is the true founder of the science of canon law." - Vol. VI, art. "Gratian," p. 730. {1943 CE, FAFA 219.3}​

    The same Catholic authority says:

    "The 'Decretum' of Gratian was considered in the middle of the twelfth century as a corpus juris canonici, i.e. a code of the ecclesiastical law then in force." - Id., Vol. IV, art. "Decretals," p. 671. {1943 CE, FAFA 219.4}​

    It further states:

    "It must be admitted that the work of Gratian was as near perfection as was then possible. For that reason it was adopted at Bologna, and soon elsewhere, as the textbook for the study of canon law. . . . While lecturing on Gratian's work, the canonists labored to complete and elaborate the master's teaching." - Id., Vol. IX, art. "Law, Canon," pars. "D" and "E," p. 62. {1943 CE, FAFA 220.1}​

    Different popes added their own decrees to the collection of Gratian, as the following quotation will show: {1943 CE, FAFA 220.2}

    "Thus by degrees the Corpus Juris Canonici took shape. This became the official code of canon law for Western Europe during the Middle Ages, and was composed of six books, namely, the Decretum of Gratian (about 1150), the Decretals of Gregory IX (1234), the Sextus of Boniface VIII (1298), the Clementines of Clement V (1313), the Extravagantes of John XII (about 1316), and the Extravagantes Communes, which contained laws made by succeeding popes." - "The Papacy," Rev,. C. Lattey, S. J. [Jesuit], page 143. Cambridge, England: 1924. {1943 CE, FAFA 220.3}​

    After the Council of Trent, Pope Pius V had this "Canon Law " revised. {1943 CE, FAFA 220.4}

    "Pius V appointed (1566) a commission to prepare a new edition of the 'Corpus Juris Canonici.' This commission devoted itself especially to the correction of the text of the 'Decree' of Gratian and of its gloss. Gregory XIII ('Cum pro munere,' 1 July, 1580; 'Emendationem,' 2 June, 1582) decreed that no change was to be made in the revised text. This edition of the 'Corpus' appeared at Rome in 1582, in aedibus populi Romani, and serves as examplar for all subsequent editions." - Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. IV, art. "Corpus Juris Cononici," pp. 392, 393. It was reprinted verbatim in 1613 and 1622. {1943 CE, FAFA 220.5}​

    This is the standard text of canon law for the whole Roman Catholic Church. Pope Gregory XIII wrote July 1, 1580, in his preface to this corrected edition: {1943 CE, FAFA 220.6}

    "We have demanded care in rejecting, correcting, and expurgating. . . . The Decree itself, without the glossae, exists now entirely freed from faults and corrected. . . . as much the one without the glossae as the entire one with the glossae . . . all recognized and approved . . . this body of canonical law firmly grounded and incorrupted according to this model printed at Rome by Catholic typographers. . . . We wishing to proceed opportunely, so that this canonical law thus expurgated, may come restored to all the faithful . . . kept perpetually integrid and incorruptible, motu proprio, and from our certain knowledge, and from the plenitude of the apostolic power to all and singly in the dominion of our sacred Roman Church." - Preface to Corpus Juris Canonici, Gregorii XIII, Pontif. Max. Auctoritate; in editions of 1582, 1613, 1622, and 1879. {1943 CE, FAFA 220.7}​

    Of this corrected "Corpus," or canon law, "published in 1582 . . . by order of Gregory XIII," and established by his authority, we read: {1943 CE, FAFA 221.1}

    "The text of this edition, revised by the Correctores Romani, a pontifical commission established for the revision of the text of the 'Corpus Juris,' has the force of law." - Catholic Encyclopedia., Vol. IV, art. "Decretals, Papal," p. 672, par. 3. {1943 CE, FAFA 221.2}​

    Notice that this revised edition of canon law "has the force of law." In this canon law, which Pope Gregory XIII had corrected by "the plenitude of the apostolic power," so that it is "entirely freed from faults," we find the same statement:

    "Beatus Petrus in terris vicarius Filii Dei esse videtur constitutus."-"Corpus Juris Canonici, Gregorii XIII, Pontif. Max. Auctoritate," Distinctio 96, Column 286, Canon Constantinus 14, Magdeburg, 1747. {1943 CE, FAFA 221.3}

    Moreover, custom has even given to several apocryphal canons of the 'Decree' of Gratian the force of law." - Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. IV, art. "Corpus Juris Cononici," p. 393. {1943 CE, FAFA 221.4}​

    In "Corpus Juris Canonici Emendatum et Notis Illustratum Gregorii XIII. Pont. Max.," "Lvgdvn, MDCXXII" or "the Canon Law of Pope Gregory XIII, of 1622," with the Pope's own "Preface," in which he assures us of its being without flaw, we find the same:

    "Beatus Petrus in terris Vicarius Filii Dei esse videtur constitutus." - Column 295. {1943 CE, FAFA 221.5}​

    We cannot see how any consistent Catholic can deny the authenticity of this title without denying the infallibility of the pope. What more authority can they desire? {1943 CE, FAFA 221.6}

    Before going further let us apply the rule laid down in the Catholic Bible for counting the number of his name. It says: "The numeral letters of his name shall make up this number." - Note under Revelation 13: 18. In Bible times they did not use figures. We can still see on dials of old clocks, in numbers given above chapters in the Bible and in dates inscribed on cornerstones, certain numerical values given to some of the letters. In Latin, 1 stands for 1, V for 5, X for 10, L for 50, C for 100, D for 500, and M for 1,000. Originally we had no U, but V was used for U, and V is often used for U today on public buildings, such as "Pvblic Library," and our W is still written as a double V, not as a double U.

    The next Catholic authority we shall quote is F. Lucii Ferraris, who wrote "a veritable encyclopedia" in Latin, of which several editions have been printed by the papal church at Rome. The American Catholic Encyclopedia says of Ferraris's great work that it "will ever remain a precious mine of information." - Vol. VI, p. 48. From this unquestionable Catholic authority we shall first quote its Latin statement, and then give the English translation:

    V = 5

    i = 1

    c = 100

    a = 0

    r = 0

    i = 1

    u = 5

    s = 0

    F = 0

    i = 1

    l = 50

    i = 1

    i = 1

    D = 500

    e = 0

    i = 1

    "Ut sicut Beatus Petrus in terris vicarius Filii Dei fuit constitutus, ita et Pontifices eius successores in terris principatus potestatem amplius, quam terrenae imperialis nostrae serenitatis mansuetudo habere videtur."

    ("As the blessed Peter was constituted Vicar of the Son of God on earth, so it is seen that the Pontiffs, his successors, hold from us and our empire the power of a supremacy on the earth greater than the clemency of our earthly imperial serenity.") - "Prompta Bibliotheca canonica juridica moralis theologica" etc., Vol. VI, art. "Papa," p. 43. Printed by the Press of the Propaganda, Rome: 1890. ..."

    "... Henry Edward Cardinal Manning of England, an extensive Roman Catholic writer, of high esteem in his church, applies the same title to the pope, only using it in its English translation. He says of the popes:

    "The temporal power in the hands of St. Gregory I was a fatherly and patriarchal rule over nations not as yet reduced to civil order. In the hands of St. Leo III it became a power of creating empires. In the hands of St. Gregory VII it was a scourge to chasten them. In the hands of Alexander III it was a dynasty, ruling supremely, in the name of God, over the powers of the world. . . . So that I may say there never was a time when the temporal power of the Vicar of the Son of God, though assailed as we see it, was more firmly rooted throughout the whole unity of the Catholic Church. {1943 CE, FAFA 223.1}

    It was a dignified obedience to bow to the Vicar of the Son of God, and to remit the arbitration of their griefs to one whom all wills consented to obey." - "The Temporal Power of the Vicar of Jesus Christ," pp. 231, 232, second edition. London: Burns and Lambert, 1862. {1943 CE, FAFA 223.2}​

    The same year, this book was translated and published in Italian, with the sanction of the church attached to it. The title "Vicar of the Son of God" appears on pages 234 and 235 of that edition. {1943 CE, FAFA 223.3}

    Philippe Labbe, "a distinguished Jesuit writer on historical, geographical, and philological questions" (Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. VIII, pp. 718, 719), in his historical work "Sacrosancta concilia ad regiam editionem exacta," Vol. I, page 1534 (Paris: 1671), uses 'Vicarius Filii Dei' as the official title of the pope. {1943 CE, FAFA 223.4}

    Coming down to our own times, we shall call to the witness stand a modern advocate of the Roman Catholic cause. Our Sunday Visitor, of Huntington, Ind., in its issue of April 18, 1915, gives clear testimony in this case. We quote it in full: {1943 CE, FAFA 223.5}

    "What are the letters supposed to be in the Pope's crown, and what do the signify, if anything? {1943 CE, FAFA 223.6}

    "The letters inscribed in the Pope's mitre are these: Vicarius Filii Dei, which is the Latin for Vicar of the Son of God. Catholics hold that the Church which is a visible society must have a visible head. Christ, before His ascension into heaven, appointed St. Peter to act as His representative. Upon the death of Peter the man who succeeded to the office of Peter as Bishop of Rome, was recognized as the head of the Church. Hence to the Bishop of Rome, as head of the Church, wag given the title 'Vicar of Christ.' {1943 CE, FAFA 223.7}

    "Enemies of the Papacy denounce this title as a malicious assumption. But the Bible informs us that Christ did not only give His Church authority to teach, but also to rule. Laying claim to the authority to rule in Christ's spiritual kingdom, in Christ's stead, is not a whit more malicious than laying claim to the authority to teach in Christ's name. And this every Christian minister does." - "Our Sunday Visitor," April 18, 1915, thirteenth question under "Bureau of Information," p. 3. {1943 CE, FAFA 224.1}​

    Later, when Roman Catholic authorities discovered that Protestants were making use of the foregoing statements to identify the Papacy with the antichristian power of Revelation 13: 18, they attempted to repudiate the contents of their former article. But that article was not written by some contributor to their paper; it appeared in the "Bureau of Information," for which the editorial staff was responsible. And on page two of that paper appeared sanctions for the editor from Pope Pius X, dated May 17, 1914; from the Apostolic Delegate, John Bonzano, dated April 27, 1913; and from J. H. Alerding, Bishop of Fort Wayne, Ind., dated March 29, 1912. If statements made under such high authorities are not trustworthy, we would respectfully ask if their present denials are any more so? {1943 CE, FAFA 224.2}

    To one versed in Catholic teaching and practice, there is nothing uncommon in such denials, where the interest of the Church is at stake. Cardinal Baudrillart's quotation on pages 64 and 245 of this book shows that some Catholic authors "ask permission from the Church to ignore or even deny" some historical facts, which they "dare not" face; and we read in "History of the Jesuits," by Andrew Steinmetz, Vol. 1, p. 13, that their accredited histories in common use, 'with permission of authority,' [are] veiling the subject with painful dexterity." - London: 1848. {1943 CE, FAFA 224.3}

    We shall here refer to one other similar denial. In the Roman Catholic paper, Shepherd of the Valley, there appeared an article by the editor, in which he stated: If Catholics ever attain, which they surely will, though at a distant day, the immense numerical majority in the United States, religious liberty, as at present understood, will be at an end." A Protestant lecturer, who made use of this quotation, was bitterly arraigned in a double-column front-page article in the Catholic Standard and Times for his false statements regarding Catholics; for, it pointed out, if he had finished the quotation with the words which followed, "so say our enemies," it would have reversed its meaning. The incident would have passed off at the expense of the Protestant lecturer, had not the Western Watchman of July 24, 1913, continued the quotation still further, declaring: {1943 CE, FAFA 225.1}

    "The whole quotation should read: 'If Catholics ever attain, which they surely will, though at a distant day, the immense numerical majority in the United States, religious liberty, m at present understood, will be at an end. So say our enemies; so say we."' - Quoted in "Protestant Magazine," October, 1913, p 474. {1943 CE, FAFA 225.2}​

    Why those who tried to deny their former statements should leave out the words, "so say we," is very evident. But what can we think of those who publicly deny facts to screen their church from unfavorable public opinions, unless they act from the motive that "the end justifies the means," and that "heretics " have no moral right to facts which they would misuse. (See also pages 64 and 65 of this book.) {1943 CE, FAFA 225.3}

    We shall therefore continue to believe that the editors of Our Sunday Visitor, in its issue of April 18, 1915, page three, were perfectly honest and well informed on the subject, and that the later denials are of the same class as those mentioned above. {1943 CE, FAFA 225.4}

    226

    Our Sunday Visitor in the aforementioned quotation makes use of Vicarius Filii Dei and "Vicar of Christ" as synonymous terms, and Cardinal Manning does the same in his book, "Temporal Power of the Pope." It cannot, therefore, be maintained, as some do, that Vicarius Christi is the only mode of spelling used as the title of the pope, although the shorter rendering is used more often for brevity's sake. In fact Vicarius Christi is composite in its origin, Vicarius being Latin, while Christi is Latinized from the Greek. It would hardly seem probable that learned Romanists would adopt such a composite title to the exclusion of the pure, dignified, Latin title, Vicarius Filii Dei, which has been in use among them for centuries. {1943 CE, FAFA 226.1}

    Of late, Catholic apologists have argued that the "name of the beast " in Revelation 13: 17, 18 is a personal name of a single individual, such as Nero, and not the official title of a series of men, as that of the popes would be. But this would be entirely out of harmony with the context, for how could one man make war with God's people, and overcome them in every country, so that he would have power "over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations"? Revelation 13: 7. Then, too, that power was to continue forty and two months (v. 5), which those apologists claim to be literal. But how could one man accomplish such a world task in forty-two literal months?' {1943 CE, FAFA 226.2}

    These forty-two months are twelve hundred and sixty prophetic days (Revelation 11: 2, 3), and in prophecy a day stands for a year (Ezekiel 4: 6). (Even Catholics acknowledge that a day in prophecy stands for a year. See note under Daniel 9: 24-27 in the Douay Bible. Father Reaves says: "The prophet's weeks are, by all interpreters of the Holy Scriptures, understood to include years for days." - "Bible History," p. 345) The forty-two months, or twelve hundred and sixty days, of Revelation 13: 5 are therefore twelve hundred and sixty years, during which this power was to continue. But would not that period be quite a long time for one man to live? This attempt made by Roman apologists to screen the Papacy from being detected as the antichristian power of Revelation 13 appears too shallow to be seriously asserted by men who have made a thorough study of Bible prophecy. {1943 CE, FAFA 226.3} ..."

    No brother you want to do stupid Numerology with Roman numerals.

    "Where did the extra 1 come from?"

    The "i" 1 in white. 3rd letter.


    ELLEN GOULD WHITE

    ELLEN = L + L = 100

    Gould=U+L+D=555

    White=a double 'U' = 2 'V's +1 =11
    You can wikipedia the letter "W" In languages its still called and obviously written double V .

    100 + 555 + 11 = 666.

    Ellen G White ,the Founder of Seventh Day Adventist, name equals 666. You can't get any more accurate then one's own personal name.

    ^ the above is common knowledge you can even wiki it.

    Now Sustain this, Seventh day Adventist support MURDER. ABORTION. ABORTION IS ALLOWED.

    THE SDA are not against abortion. you can read it in thier church manual.

    They got obsessed with one commandment they forgot THOU SHALT NOT KILL.



    SDA HOSPITALS are doing millions of abortions. Its their hospitals they can shut it down but won't. The SDA is taking that blood money.

    In regards my previous response, here - 666 - The scriptural [KJB] Truth

    Point 13, was indeed based in a misunderstanding of the way in which the reply was stated. However, before it could be fixed, the time limit on altering the post was over, and I personally reported the response, several days ago, attempting to get point 13 removed, but there was no response to do so.

    Thank you for pointing it out as well, as it reiterates to me to be more careful in posting, and in double checking before doing so.

    I am not, nor do I now claim, infallibility. That claim belongs to Romanism, documentation already cited, more if necessary. A very dangerous belief for sinners to have, for it means they will refuse to acknowledge their own wrong in belief, thus practice.

    I do hope you will concede I acknowledge point 13, as invalid, and you and I might address points 1-12, still being valid, and thus negating any Latin Gematria applying to sister White's English name, or to a singular woman for that matter. Perhaps you would like to address the other points now, and that which has been given since?

    As to the latter part of the reply, bringing up a non-sequitur subject, totally unrelated to the present topic, even an ad-hominem in the reply, among other things, is truly distraction. Feel free to bring up the subject in another separately created thread. It is generally rude to attempt a derail of a threads OP topic. I might join you if you create a separate thread, but please be ready to answer then, and I would hope you have something more substantial.

    Now, if you will please, address the evidences posted on topic, consider these things, for if you are presently Roman Catholic, you are in great danger.

    I have many things to share with you and all.

    If I want to learn about Jews I don't check with Nazi sources.


    Well infallibility comes with something stated by the entire church its not a 24/7 thing, mainly to settle a dispute within as final.

    But the infallibility has to be the church, the pope can't pop up one day and say pancakes are divine this is infallible.

    The level of infallibility however doesn't hold a candle to the PROPHET ELLEN G WHITE. A PROPHET is a mouthpiece of God almighty himself. EVERYTHING the prophet is says is INFALLIBLE everything a PROPHET says is AUTOMATICALLY SCRIPTURE .

    Thats like MOSES comming back and telling us about Jesus, believe me EVERYTHING he says is INFALLIBLE and carrying the authority higher then ALL.

    In fact All of Ellen G White's EQUATE TO HOLY SCRIPTURE. But we know that wouldn't fly with other christian churches.

    So you hide your Prophet in a closet. You sell a fake Christianity, with a FAKE bible and sucker folks using deception.


    Why are you not BOLD ENOUGH to say ELLEN G WHITE IS A PROPHET!? Why not lead with the truth?


    SDA teach COWARDICE.

    If you are not a coward TELL ME abortion is MURDER. Your church allows it. Your CHURCH IS PAID to do it.

    GOOGLE SDA hospitals, Call them up, ask do you do abortions?


    Here is video of SDA MEMBERS who realized THEY ARE THE VERY MONSTERS they sought In the Catholic Church.


    SDA GENERAL CONFERENCE They got the power to PULL the name SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST and to end abortion.

    Many christian denominations gathered during the anniversary of ROE v WADE, SDA is not one of them.

    SDA SUPPORT ABORTION OFFICIALLY

    Here is their official web site. Not a hate website, their official website.

    Abortion



    YOU SUPPORT MURDER. Get that log out of your eye and then come whine about what day I tell God I love him.

    Sister Ellen G. White, is indeed a prophet[ess], but her functions included much more than the role of prophet, see: 1SM 32.4; etc.

    I have never hidden, buried, obscured (etc.) such information, but I am always open and free with it, even unashamedly so (since I believe it to be so of her, and with documentable evidences in abundance), even ready to fully document the facts from scripture [KJB], prophecy and history. In another thread of course, as the purpose of this thread is the fulfillment of the position of the pontiff, and the papal system and 666. If you would like to discuss sister White, please begin a new thread, and I may join you there, with much documented evidence.

    As for the words of prophets (other than Jesus Christ) being infallible, is very incorrect. In scripture [KJB], prophets (male or female) say and do all kinds of things which had to be corrected (by God, His word, etc), each case may be documented upon request, in another thread. This is not that thread, please see the OP topic.

    Sister White herself said, in several occasions, that she was not infallible:

    Letter 27, May 16, 1876, par. 3 -

    "... I wish that self should be hid in Jesus. I wish self to be crucified. I do not claim infallibility, or even perfection of Christian character. I am not free from mistakes and errors in my life. Had I followed my Saviour more closely, I should not have to mourn so much my unlikeness to His dear image. ..."
    Don't forget the context of that statement. Thank you.

    See also Letter 10, June 9, 1895, par. 6 also, sister White said of herself, "... In regard to infallibility, I never claimed it. ..."; and so on.

    Please try to remain on OP, as this is your second admonition, in charity.
