The following is a rough script from a new video I have made:
There seems to be great interest in conspiracy theories. Many Christians are dedicating much of their time trying to discover and expose master plots of evil leaders that threaten our way of life… but I believe as a whole, we have missed one of the biggest conspiracies ever propagated against the Christian faith. After much prayer and deliberation, it has become apparent to me that the Lord is calling me to speak out boldly about this grand deception which has infiltrated the body of Christ. It seems clear to me through my understanding of the New Testament, the history of the original Christians, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit that Satan has convinced us to ignore one of the fundamental teachings of Christ. We have become convinced that we, as followers of Christ, are justified and have a duty to take up arms and kill those we know to be wicked and evil. Yet, we know that no where in the Gospels or the Epistles did Jesus, the Apostles, or their disciples ever act in this manner.
For the first 300 years or so after Christ ascended to heaven, Christians did not kill for any reason. They faced persecution, oppression, and even martyrdom with nothing but prayers for their enemies. Once Christianity was made the state religion of Rome, things stated to change… Suddenly, the church developed a Just War doctrine – and from that point on Christianity has forgotten that Jesus turned us away from the old eye for an eye doctrine… Discussing this with most modern day Christians is difficult at best. Many are soldiers, police men, or just good old fashioned Patriots. If some one hits us – we hit back – twice as hard – and we justify it by claiming we need to defend our lives… but these are the very lives that Jesus told us plainly about in John 12:25 when He said – The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. We are told we have to defend our freedoms – but these very so-called freedoms have made our churches fat and weak and have allowed wickedness to surround our religion from all sides. We need to remember that He who lives by the sword will die by the sword. Many seek to turn this into a metaphor – and I suppose it can be interpreted in such a way – but it is equally true in the literal sense. Violence begets violence. As the early church father’s have shown in their writings – Christians did not kill. Not in defense and not for justice. They could not even bear to watch a killing – even if it was justified by their own judgment! Can you imagine that? Most of us watch movies, or television shows or play video games where killing is common place and celebrated – yet our earliest brothers could not bear to watch men that deserved death be killed.
Think about this problem my friends. Recognize how we have been brainwashed into a doctrine of the world – seduced into the arms of violence for 1600 years… theologians and scholars have formulated great arguments to defend the lie that came to us through the Roman Empire… be honest with yourselves… it is the flesh that seeks to fight and it is our lack of faith that God will dispense His wrath and justice in His time in His way. There is a phrase often heard but rarely listened to – let God be God… when we take it upon ourselves to kill another – regardless of how detestable we believe them to be – we are telling God that we know better than He does. We are assuming the role of judge, jury, and executioner… when in truth Jesus told us that He has sent us out as sheep among wolves – and we are to be as wise as serpents yet harmless as doves (Matthew 10:16).
This isn’t a simple thing to accept. It is hard to believe that we have been deceived for 1,600 years. It is even harder for us to believe that we are simply to allow ourselves to let our wealth and security be exposed to the dangerous world which will surely take it from us. Harder still is it for us to believe that we should allow ourselves or anyone else to suffer and even die – yet this is exactly what the Lord has called us to do.
John 6:53-66
Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live forever.” He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”
Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, “Does this offend you? What if you see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before! The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him. He went on to say, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled him.” From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.
If we are to eat the flesh and drink the blood of Christ we must be as He was on this earth. We can clearly see His Way in His life on earth, in the lives of the Apostles, and even in the lives of the early Christians right up till the time of Constantine. No matter how hard we try to change these facts – no matter how many scriptures we twist, no matter how desperately we want to believe otherwise – this is one of the fundamental distinctions of Christianity that we have lost over the centuries. If we deny this then we are refusing His Way! I don’t believe it’s mistake that John 6:66 reads – From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.
In the coming days and weeks I will be releasing videos exposing the false interpretations of scripture that people have developed to defend their desire to kill for what they have. I will be sharing the insight that God is giving me on the historical facts that been ignored. I will be answering your questions and responding to your challenges as they come forth – and I will be praying that God will shower us all with patience and understanding. If you are angered by this video, ask yourself why. If I am just a fool who doesn’t know what he is talking about – then why does it prick your heart as it does? The followers of Christ will not follow a stranger… so if what I am saying is not true – then no one of Christ will accept it. Surely you aren’t swayed by fools! Seek the heart of Christ and you’ll come to understand – the greatest conspiracy of all has been perpetrated against the children of Christ – and it has been so complete and thorough that at this moment – you can barely stand to hear it.
Exposing the True Conspiracy
