Way of Cain: Techniques Defining Your Experience

Force Failed to Control Dissent

Way of Cain: Techniques Defining Your Experience;
You Become Your Own Best Conversion Agent

I want to tell you why I see the World as a dangerous delusion designed to prevent you from realizing your true danger. I did not develop this view from some special knowledge hidden from mere mortals nor did I receive it by special inspiration or vision. I experienced the truth of the World System first hand from my youth. I want you to know so you can truly determine if you can trust what I write. The purpose of discernment, Christian maturity, is to understand how Satan’s World System penetrates and seeks to organize every aspect of life to prevent you and your loved ones from seeing their true danger and the only solution God offers: Salvation. But, unless you realize your true danger, you will not accept the life ring of salvation and be pulled from the raging seas of sin into Christ’s rescuing arms like Peter (Mt 14:22-33).

Pope Ain’t The Antichrist

Luther Set Tone: Pope is Antichrist

Pope as Antichrist Born in Protestantism;
Luther Speak from Bible or Prejudice?

Roman Catholicism (RCC) ruled the Western Christian world for nearly a millennium. Except for The Great Schism (1064) which saw the split of Greek Orthodoxy split from RCC to prevail in the East, doctrine was pretty much decided by the Pope. However, Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses (1517) became the rift between RCC and the protesters who disagreed from the Pope on some relatively minor issues. This movement grew to become Protestantism which quickly broke along nationalistic lines as the various factions sought protection from the new nation-states and the same states sought legitimacy from their new religions from the tyranny of RCC dominance. Luther was known as the father of the movement and his pronouncements carried great weight. Even over 500 years later many Protestant, and Baptist denominations still consider the Pope the Antichrist. This has gained resurgence in light of today’s world changing political-social climates and many leaders claiming the end is near! Is it? Does the Bible support this assertion? Or, is this simply Luther’s papal prejudice lasting for generations without foundation? Continue reading “Pope Ain’t The Antichrist”

Controlling Fear: Cain and Abel

Romanticized Cain and Abel

Cain and Abel Narrative Often Viewed
Via Lens of Myth, Conjecture or Gnosticism

Controlling Fear: Cain and Abel becomes a study once the myth, wild conjectures and Kabbalah mysticism of gnosticism is stripped away. Genesis first eleven chapters are extremely condensed in its explaination Abram’s, and the Jews’, origins. Some Jewish sources have Satan raping Eve to explain Cain’s evilness. Christendom views this event as a myth that occurred in prehistory as a means to explain the effects of the parent’s sin. Evangelical Christians are taught that this is an example of God rejecting works by accepting the proper sacrifice; a view that has little basis in this narrative. I believe this narrative shows the true struggle and character of the brothers to highlight the why of Cain’s murder of Abel: Struggle of Control (Ge 4:1-22).
