ARTArticlePope Calling YouCat a “Youth Bible” Misleading for World Youth Day, Says Christian AuthorA Catholic website says the Bible is “Extremely Dangerous,” while showing youth on a beach reading the Catholic YouCat promoted by the pope as a “youth Bible.” That's deceptive; it's not a Bible at all, but a Catholic indoctrination that eliminates basic Bible teaching. An example is the way the Ten Commandments were changed. This can be seen in Exodus 20 in a Catholic translation as well as a King James Bible, but the catechism eliminates that 2nd Commandment and divides the 10th Commandment in two (maintaining ten) because the church is full of images.ARTArticlePope Calling YouCat a “Youth Bible” Misleading for World Youth Day, Says Christian AuthorA Catholic website says the Bible is “Extremely Dangerous,” while showing youth on a beach reading the Catholic YouCat promoted by the pope as a “youth Bible.” That's deceptive; it's not a Bible at all, but a Catholic indoctrination that eliminates basic Bible teaching.

Holy day of Obligation. The Month of Mary is May. The Month of the Rosary is October. The Feast of the Immaculate Heart is the Saturday following the Second Sunday after Pentecost. The First Saturday of each Month is also dedicated to Marian Devotions.ARTArticlePope Francis v US Free SpeechFrancis’ weekly Angelus address focused on "Thou shalt not kill," saying it applied “also to those behaviors which offend the dignity of the human person, including insulting words." The history of the papacy includes the killing of heretics who protested the title, Lord God the Pope as Luther did. The Protestant Reformers risked their lives to show the papacy as a fulfillment of the ‘little horn’ growing out of the Roman Empire (4th beast) in Daniel 7, also the harlot in Revelation 17.ARTArticlePope Francis: “Muslim Terrorism Does Not Exist.”Addressing the World Meetings of Popular Movements last Friday, Pope Francis denied the existence of Islamic terrorism, while simultaneously asserting that “the ecological crisis is real.” Here’s the scoop on his agenda as it reflects a repeat of history. From the days of Constantine, a Roman sun-worshiper whose Edict in 321 AD made Sunday the day of worship later blessed by the bishop of Rome, the papacy has been recognized by some Bible students as the ‘little horn’ that grew out of the Roman Empire to do the things described in Daniel 7:25, including the changing of times and laws.ARTArticlePope Paints Poor Picture of Paradise, Missing Points in Book Promotion?Pope Francis borrows imagery of God amid fire and smoke on Sinai to say God is with us in the good and bad, like his father who carried Francis home after he had his tonsils out. Yes, God is like that, but there’s a broader picture in the book recommended by Christ when was asked about the end of the world—He told us to understand Daniel in Matthew 24.ARTArticlePope Protests Polarization, Brexit, Walls to Keep Out Illegals and Plans to Export Alien Criminals“[Trump’s] victory, this summer’s Brexit vote and the growing popularity of nationalist movements across Europe have raised grave conce s…at the Vatican” (USA Today). The pope seems to want a worldwide melting pot of cultures and religions that are causing chaos and confusion in Europe as a warning to America before we are tolerant of everything and everybody.ARTArticlePope Says Trump Not a Christian; Bible says Pope Not a Christian, but Catholics May Be OK“The Bible implies that anyone following truth to the best of their ability is following Christ because He said, ‘I am the Truth.’ The problem comes with religions that don’t teach Bible truth or they change it to suit culture and their own practices. Christ who loves everyone is judge, but He said that many who are religious are self-deceived.ARTArticlePope Wants Change on Death Penalty—a Fulfillment of Prophecy?“Pope Francis said the death penalty is ‘inadmissible’ and called for changes to church doctrine to prohibit it,” Time Magazine Videos This is a fulfillment of Bible prophecy says Dr. Richard Ruhling, author on current events, offering the following information. Protestant reformers saw the pope as represented by the little horn that grew out of the 4th beast in Daniel 7, the Roman Empire. Verse 25 says it “shall think to change times and laws.”ARTArticlePope: Hell No—God Doesn’t Punish Sinners Forever, But Read The Fine PrintIn his latest variance from tradition, Pope Francis said sinners were not subject to an ete ity of punishment, https://www.yahoo.com/news/does-hell-exist-pope-francis-155354139.html This is a true picture of God who has “no pleasure in the death of the wicked” but it overlooks the fine print—there will be a “Great White Throne” judgment when even the wicked are resurrected to see the love of Christ for their soul that they rejected to walk in their own way and when every knee to acknowledge His love and justice, those who were impenitent will be burned up as it says in Malachi 4:1.ARTArticlePredicing the Superbowl Winner from the Bible?Patriotism is a good thing, and we might think the New England Patriots would win the Superbowl—their odds for winning from Vegas are about 5 to 1. Nevertheless, the Philadelphia Eagles have an edge from the Bible. Whether they win or not, we can be winners to understand this biblical message. The US has just celebrated 45 years of Roe v Wade, a sad history of 60 million abortions that make the US worse tha Egypt which also killed babies, and they enslaved Israel.ARTArticleReinca ated--Past Lives of Famous PeopleMost people don’t realize that you can’t have karma without reinca ation, and the theory of reinca ation dictates you are the sum total of all your prior existences. Even though you don’t consciously remember, all your actions in past lives, negative and positive, created the challenges and rewards you experience today, along with your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual being.ARTArticleReinca ated--Past Lives of Famous PeopleMost people don’t realize that you can’t have karma without reinca ation, and the theory of reinca ation dictates you are the sum total of all your prior existences. Even though you don’t consciously remember, all your actions in past lives, negative and positive, created the challenges and rewards you experience today, along with your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual being.ARTArticleReinca ation Has Yet to Be Proven Invalid--Response to a CynicOne sure way to generate controversy is to bring up the topic of reinca ation in a group conversation. In our experience, in the Western world, about 30% will say they believe in it, 40% will express mild skepticism, and 30% will vehemently speak out against it. Elsewhere in the world, believers are a significantly higher percentage, as the majority of the world embraces the concept of reinca ation in some form or another. They, like us, believe the soul is ete al and “the other side” exists, where souls go after physically inca ating.ARTArticleRothschild: New World Order by 2018? Rev 11:3-7 Says God’s Witnesses Get Power 3½ Years Before BeastGoogle “Rothschild: New World Order by 2018” for 1.8 million results. These are the proud boasts by bankers in conspiracy with the pope, but the Bible says God’s side will get power first for 1260 days--power to turn water to blood and shut the heavens (not ‘climate change’ by chemtrails from planes or HAARP, CIA, etc)ARTArticleSatan's Soliloquy: Because there is always more than one side to a story...SATAN'S SOLILOQUY Because there is always more than one side to a story...Indeed, here is mine... (Note: This artsy piece is intended to invoke a sense of independence, freedom, and affirmation for the pagan reader, to continue in the development of his or her own individual path without feeling any guilt from the mainstream society. I hope it is seen in a positive light, the way it was meant to be when originally written.)ARTArticleSelf-Sabotage and How to Overcome ItThe causes of your self-sabotage can be the following: - Self-defeating or limiting beliefs about that particular activity or life in general, such as: I'm vulnerable; the unknown is dangerous; I should not take the risk; life is unfair; I'm not good enough; I’m not worthy; life is hard; I am a victim in my life; I have no happiness in life; no one should be trusted; no pain, no gain; the rich are unhappy, and many, many more.ARTArticleSexual Harassment Is Mostly Male Stupidity; Finding Love Mostly Female MisunderstandingThis is an over-simplification, but men tend play at love to get sex; women play at sex to get love. When the game is over, both parties lose, but women lose more. Women often invite harrassment by dressing immodestly. Sexual harrassment is sad news daily. Dating problems don’t have to be so difficult. Here’s a remedy in a true story as a good example. Richard’s former wife died of a prescription drug reaction. This is more common that most people know, http://LeadingCauseOfDeathPrescriptionDrugs.com ichard wanted to remarry soon, so he joined a single’s group online.ARTArticleSign in Sky September 23 Misunderstands Revelation 12 as End of World or Rapture says Prophecy ExpertMedia Mock Meade’s Misunderstanding of a Sign in Sky September 23 as ‘End of Days and Rapture,’ says Dr. Richard Ruhling, author of God Bless America? He explains the ‘Great Sign of Revelation 12’ is not apocalyptic for September 23, but its nine months ‘pregnancy’ points to next spring…ARTArticleSigns Your Partner Could Be Possessed by DemonsThe first thing that comes to mind for most people after hearing the words demonic possession is the Exorcist movie, Halloween, or perhaps your in-laws. We understand the reluctance to embrace the concept of ghosts and dark energy. Many years ago we were unsure about the notion of demonic energy, and particularly about it influencing human behavior. Today, we believe it’s a real epidemic that makes life’s difficulties worse, and creates additional problems for countless unsuspecting people.ARTArticleSimple ABC Tips for Guaranteed Weight LossA is for Attitude as a key ingredient. Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, either way you choose, you will be right. So why not give this your best shot. If so, it’s the last time you will have to face this problem. A is also for Appetite Suppressant. No, not drugs. In your brain, the hunger and thirst center are so close, that they overlap. Drink two glasses of hot water 10-15 minutes before eating. Add a little lemon juice if you like. You will discover this helps digestion and cuts your appetite.ARTArticleSix Obama Parallels with the King of Babylon for Biblical End-TimesWhen asked about the end of the world, Christ cited an abomination spoken of by Daniel that early believers understood as military brought by Rome and they fled the city as Christ warned in Matthew 24. This is a parallel to Executive Orders readied by Obama for martial law. Obamacare is Obama’s legacy, but Daniel 1 has a healthcare focus that fits Obamacare. The king of Babylon had a prescribed health plan that Daniel wisely opted out of. Daniel declined the king’s food and wine and most people should consider how to do so today.ARTArticleSo Long AppendixThrough the years I have heard people make fun of philosophers who contemplate their navels in an ivory tower. Why an ivory tower? Maybe the lighting is better. I don’t know about you, but my belly button is a cute little “innie” and it would be hard to contemplate it properly without proper illumination. But my navel contemplation is more quizzical than philosophical. I recently had a laparoscopic appendectomy. My abdomen has a couple small bandages – left side, right side and a small cut above my navel so the surgeon could poke around, find, and remove my inflamed appendix.ARTArticleSpirit Possession or Brain Disturbance--You DecideSevere possession by lost souls and sometimes even demonic entities is, we believe, a serious yet largely overlooked problem. Spiritually sensitive and otherwise susceptible people, such as abused children or people who abuse alcohol and, or use drugs, can unknowingly be a host for all sorts of lost souls and dark energy. The hosting experience can endure for hours, days, years, or even a lifetime.ARTArticleSpiritual Power: Mysticism in Five StagesThe five stages of mysticism aren't as complex as you may think. Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to have a long mane of white hair and live in an exotic, remote part of the world to be a mystic. The American Heritage dictionary defines mysticism as "...consciousness of transcendent reality or of God through deep meditation or contemplation. Mystic is defined as of or relating to religious mysteries or occult rites and practices; one who practices or believes in mysticism." You may have deep mystical tendencies and not even realize you're a mystic, by definition.ARTArticleSpiritual Tips That Are a Waste of TimeThere’s no shortage of spiritual information online. Seek answers, and you shall find helpful information. But you’ll also find plenty of spiritual advice you should ignore. We started exploring metaphysical and spiritual subjects over thirty years ago. In our exhaustive searches and studies, we never followed only one religion, outlook, guru, or system. Instead, we like to try and test many options, then apply reason, intuition, and long-term observation to determine what works, and what doesn’t.ARTArticleSpiritual Tips You Shouldn’t FollowThanks to modern technology and the Internet, you’ll find an abundance of spiritual information online when you seek answers to your spiritual questions. Unfortunately, so much of it is spiritual advice you should ignore. Throughout over 30 years of extensive metaphysical and spiritual exploration, we’ve never adhered to only one system, religion, or outlook. Instead, we use intuition, reason, common sense, and long-term observation to discover what works. Below is some of the spiritual advice we’ve found that is best ignored since it’s unhelpful or even dangerous.ARTArticleSpiritual Truth About BetrayalThe concept of betrayal from a spiritual viewpoint is controversial. Since the dawn of time, many forms of betrayal, particularly romantic betrayal, have caused much emotional anguish. Everyone knows from experience that betrayal isn’t pleasant. Nobody likes to be on the receiving end of deliberate disloyalty, including failing to honor business agreements, familial obligations, or a marriage contract. You have a legitimate complaint if you’re wronged in such a way. How Betrayal is a Spiritual Lesson ARTArticleTake A BreathIf you could take away all the suffering in the world, taking it in with just a single breath, and have it go away, would you hesitate? Is that fair? Couldn’t you just donate a few dollars to CARE and have that be enough? Could whatever you are doing now count? In speaking with clients I get that many of us are overwhelmed and generally feel disenfranchised from feeling helpful when we see something happening in the world we really care about.r ARTArticleTechniques of Sexual HarassersHarassment is rife, certainly in London. It happens in all environments: from entrepreneurial environments, to very reputable companies, to day to day life. It happens regularly, and it is justified by society. I have experienced it many times and I have been disgusted by the low level of people, including Directors. I cannot dress or behave the same way that I could in Italy. Part of the mind here is sick. As a by-product, in some environments and by some people, the people who get the jobs are the people who are more “sexy” and have less “values”.r
