Good morning.
Welcome to Inquisition Update.
My name is Tom Friess and I'll be your host for the next hour.
You're listening to FirstAmendmentRadio .com.
Thanks for tuning in.
Yesterday we concluded with the reading of the main portion of the book entitled,
A Woman Rides the Beast by Dave Hunt.
This morning we're going to continue in the book in the appendix.
We're going to be dealing with a list of subjects that clearly distinguish the
difference between true Bible-believing Christianity, the Church of Jesus Christ,
Bible Protestantism, versus its counterfeit, the synagogue of Satan,
the Roman Catholic Church.
These issues that we're going to deal with in the appendix of this book are the very
issues dealt with by the Protestant Reformers.
And the stand that they took against the Roman Catholic Church.
These things that we're going to read about are not scriptural.
And this is why the Protestants protested and came out of the Roman Catholic Church.
And identified it for what it is, the synagogue of Satan and its leader,
the Pope, the Antichrist of the Bible.
Now the first subject of discussion in the appendix of this book is entitled,
Purgatory.
We're going to learn a little bit about Purgatory.
We're going to begin with some quotes.
The first one from Vatican Council 2.
And by the way, keep in mind that these subjects we're going to be dealing with
are those very subjects that are going to have to be dealt with by ecumenical
evangelicals who have reunited ecumenically with the Roman Catholic
Church and the authority of the Church and the authority of the Pope.
These things they are going to have to assent to.
After the Protestant Reformers rejected them.
They are going to have to deal with these now.
Purgatory.
A quote from Vatican Council 2.
Now you who are learned in the Scriptures are going to instantly see the fallacy of
this quote.
For those who are not familiar with the Scriptures, pay careful attention.
This is an education for you.
Now this quote, it says, The truth has been divinely revealed that sins are
followed by punishments.
God's holiness and justice inflict them.
Sins must be expiated.
This may be done on this earth through the sorrows, miseries, and trials of this life
and, above all, through death.
Otherwise, the expiation must be made in the next life through fire and torments or
purifying punishments.
The punishments with which we are concerned here are imposed by God's
judgment, which is just and merciful.
The reasons for their imposition are that our souls need to be purified.
The holiness of the moral law needs to be strengthened and God's glory must be
restored to its full majesty.
Unquote.
So you sinners out there, according to the Roman Catholic Church, have got a whole
lot of punishment coming to you.
In this life and in the life hereafter in purgatory.
Jesus' blood didn't solve the issue for your sins.
They were not washed away.
They are still upon you, clinging tightly to you and they must be purged.
As in a flame.
The flames of purgatory.
A temporary place of punishment where your sins may be expiated.
Where you may be purged of your sins that somehow Jesus' blood didn't remove.
That's Roman Catholicism.
That is the synagogue of Satan.
That is the Roman Catholic Church.
That is what the ecumenical evangelicals have bought in their reunification with
the Roman Catholic Church.
And not only that, but because they have acquiesced to the Roman Catholic Church
and ecumenically reunited with the Roman Catholic Church, they put true
Bible-believing Christians at stake.
Because now together, the Roman Catholic Church plus all the ecumenical
evangelicals in this country constitute a vast majority who now have a political
mandate that they can walk into Washington D.C.
saying that we now represent the lion's share of the Christians in this country
and we hold to purgatory.
And that means we must have laws passed in this country whereby sins may be expiated
in this life and in the life to come in purgatory.
So we need a stronger civil government.
We need black uniforms.
We need German shepherds.
We need guillotines.
We need concentration camps.
We need redirection or reorientation centers
where we can even torture, if need be, to expiate the sins of the sinners.
It's called the New World Order and it's going to look so much like the Old World
Order that you won't be able to distinguish except for the technologies
that they'll use to expiate your sins.
The New World Order.
That's what it is.
The Old World Order restored on a highly technologically advanced basis and on a
global basis.
See what we got from Vatican Council II and ecumenism?
Purgatory.
What a deal!
Jesus Christ's blood has no effect.
It doesn't purge away our sins.
The Roman Catholic Church, through the government, will purge your sins for you.
Here's another quote from the Council of Trent, the bloody, Jesuit-led,
Counter-Reformation Council of Trent.
Quote, you Bible-believing Protestants, listen carefully.
If anyone says that after the reception of the grace of justification, the guilt is
so remitted and the debt of eternal punishment so blotted out to every
penitent sinner that no debt of temporal punishment remains to be discharged,
either in this world or in purgatory before the gates of heaven can be opened,
let him be anathema.
Let him be damned.
If you Bible-believers out there say that after the reception of the grace of
justification, if you say that after being saved, the guilt of your sins is so
remitted and blotted out that punishment is not necessary, you're damned.
According to the Roman Catholic Church.
If you believe that Jesus' blood washes away all of your sins, your sins are
purged, your sins have been expiated, you are now in perfect satisfaction of
God's law, you are heaven-bound because of the grace that has been imputed to you by
faith in the blood offering of Jesus Christ, and that no punishment should be
meted out for your temporal sins, you're damned.
In other words, if you believe the gospel, you're damned.
That's the difference between the body of Christ and the synagogue of Satan.
Purgatory.
You've got to ride in the flames for perhaps thousands of years to expiate all
the sins that remain clinging to you,
and until those sins have been purged away in purgatory, heaven's gates will remain
closed to you.
That even in death, after serving the Roman Catholic Church all of your life,
participating in the mass, all the feast days and holy days of the Roman Catholic
Church, paying 10% of your income to the church, in other words, jumping through
all the hoops of the Roman Catholic Church, participating in the sacraments,
confessing your sins to a priest, buying indulgences for your sins,
still, the Roman Catholic Church isn't capable of expiating all your sins,
so you have to do it in purgatory.
Purgatory.
What a deal, right?
Now you know why the Protestants protested?
They couldn't find one shred of evidence in the scriptures of any place called
purgatory.
Anything like purgatory, it's a complete fabrication.
That is, if the Bible and the Bible alone is your source for faith and morality.
Now do you see why the Roman Catholic Church hates the Bible?
There's much more to learn about purgatory.
Dave Hunt writes, as the quotations opposite indicate, Catholicism teaches
that while Christ's death made it possible for sins to be forgiven, the pardoned
sinner must himself suffer some undefined pain or torment of unknown intensity and
duration in order to be purged and thereby be made fit for heaven.
He must go to purgatory.
For an unknown period of time.
Only God knows how long you have to stay in purgatory in the writhing flames until
your sins are finally purged away, and then, only then, are you made fit for
heaven.
While Catholicism says it is theoretically possible to be cleansed through the
sufferings of this life and one's death, no one, not even the Pope himself,
can know whether that has occurred.
Consequently, almost all Roman Catholics expect to spend some unknown length of
time in purgatory.
Failure to accept the doctrine of purgatory brings automatic excommunication
from the Roman Catholic Church.
In other words, if you don't believe in purgatory, just exactly the way the Roman
Catholic Church teaches purgatory, you are just simply ipso facto,
that is, automatically, whether you know it or not, whether the Roman Catholic
Church has declared it or not, you are excommunicated from the Roman
Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation.
So if you don't believe that you must go to purgatory, to have your sins purged,
then you go straight to hell.
No purgatory.
You just go straight to hell.
And that's it.
The gates of heaven will never be opened to you.
Pretty compelling.
So you better believe in purgatory, hadn't you?
See the power the Roman Catholic Church has over the penitent Roman Catholic
Center?
See how much mercy and grace the Roman Catholic Church, and they claim to be
Christians?
He says both the Council of Trent and Vatican Council too speak of those who,
even though Christ suffered for their sins, must still make expiation for their
sins in the fire of purgatory.
Here is Vatican Council too's further explanation of this doctrine.
The doctrine of purgatory clearly demonstrates that even when the guilt of
sin has been taken away, punishment for it or the consequences of it may remain to be
expiated or cleansed.
In purgatory, the soul of those who died in the charity of God and truly repentant,
but who had not made satisfaction with adequate penance for their sins and
omissions, their sins and omissions, in case you happen to fail to remember to
confess a certain sin, are cleansed after death with punishments designed to purge
away their debt.
Dave says, what is adequate penance?
No one knows.
The Roman Catholic Church has never defined it.
And not only that, where does the Bible say that punishment purges from sin?
It doesn't.
Complete fabrication.
Purgatory.
Complete fabrication by the Roman Catholic Church.
Under the subtitle, The Impossible Doctrine, Dave continues.
He says, the doctrine of purgatory does violence to both logic and scripture.
Romans chapter 6 verse 23 says, The wages of sin is death.
Not a limited time in purgatory.
The wages of sin is death, not purgatory.
Purgatory is not mentioned or even implied in the scriptures.
But the Bible says the wages of sin is death.
The payment for sin is death.
We must be lost forever apart from Christ's sacrifice for our sins.
Nor is sin of such a make-up or quality that suffering of any kind can purge it
from the heart and the soul.
Sin is part of mankind's very nature.
Suffering may indeed alter one's attitude temporarily, but once the pain has passed
the old man, the old tendencies return, because the heart has not been changed.
It takes a miracle of God to purge the soul of a sin.
A miracle which must both leave intact the man's power of choice and satisfy the
demands of God's infinite justice.
The Bible declares unequivocally that there is only one way for the soul to be
cleansed.
Through the blood of Jesus Christ poured out upon the cross in payment for our sins
and by a new birth of God's Spirit in the soul through faith in Christ and His
finished redemptive work.
It's all about Jesus.
Take Him or leave Him.
And if you take Him, you must believe that His sacrifice was sufficient to cleanse
you of all sin.
Confessed and unconfessed.
We are to confess our sins to the Father.
But if we happen to forget one, that one is forgiven too.
It says if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our
sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
You see in Roman Catholicism, if you forget one, a sin that is so old that you
have forgotten it, or one that you are just not quite ready to confess to the
priest, you have got to burn a thousand years in purgatory.
What a deal, right?
He says thus on two counts the doctrine of purgatory sufferings is false.
Number one, it is impossible for suffering to cleanse the heart of sin.
Number two, it is unnecessary for the pardoned sinner to suffer for his sin
because Christ has already paid the full penalty demanded by God's justice.
On that basis alone is a person cleansed.
So why has the Roman Catholic Church added purgatory?
I think you would be shocked and horrified to find out those of you who do not know.
The Bible declares that Christ, quote, when he had by himself purged our
sins, sat down on the right hand of majesty on high, unquote, Hebrews 1.3,
indicating that the purging is finished.
He said it is finished.
Our redemption is finished.
Our sins are washed away.
They're finished.
But Rome says no, it's not finished.
Jesus suffered, yes, he gave salvation, made it available, but it's not finished.
You've got to go to purgatory.
Or pay a lot of money to the Roman Catholic Church by indulgences.
Somehow we'll get you out of purgatory if you've got enough money.
If you'll will us the farm, deprive your children of an inheritance, you leave us
your land, your property.
We'll see to it that enough masses will be said that we can get you and everybody
else out of purgatory.
Just give us what you got and we'll continue to save masses in your behalf.
Now you'll be writhing in the flames in the meantime, but that's why it's so
important for you to give your money and your property and your children's and
grandchildren's inheritance to the church where it can do you the most good.
Because there's nothing worse than suffering in the flames of purgatory.
He says then again, quote, The blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son, cleanses us from
all sin.
1 John 1-7.
Rome says no, not all sin.
You still have many unconfessed sins.
There are some sins for which you didn't do enough penance.
You didn't suffer enough.
You didn't give enough.
There's no way you can conscientiously believe that all of your sins have been
covered, and you must go to purgatory.
Scripture is very clear in stating that it was the shedding of Jesus Christ's blood
in death under the judgment of God that purged us.
Scripture is very clear on that count.
If you begin to equivocate on that, you make God a liar.
He said all of our sins are taken care of.
All of our sins have been washed away.
All of our sins have been purged.
Isn't that why it says that we'll be given
pure white linen to wear when we stand before Him?
Pure white linen?
I mean, how can your linen stay white if you've just escaped or been liberated from
the soot of purgatory?
It's Jesus Christ who washes us white as snow.
Purgatory isn't even mentioned.
He says, moreover, quote, without shedding of blood is no remission of sin.
Hebrews 9.22.
So, when you go to purgatory, you don't shed blood.
You just burn.
You just burn in purgatory.
And your own blood can't wash away your sins either.
But God said, without shedding of blood is no remission of sin.
So purgatory cannot remit your sin.
And that's the conclusion come to unanimously by the Protestant Reformers.
Why?
Because they all read the same book at the same time.
They were all led by the same spirit all at the same time.
They all came to the right conclusion.
God's conclusion.
We'll be back right after this.

When it comes to prophecy today, much of the Evangelical Christian world
has their eyes on Israel, waiting and watching to see when the Third Temple will
begin to be built.
The plans are drawn.
The Jewish people are eager.
Most Evangelical Christians today believe that the rapture will happen before the
Third Temple is built.
Hi, I'm Michael Eugene.
I was taught that Daniel's 70th week was in the future.
Is that really what the Bible teaches?
Have we searched the scriptures and found this to be true?
Why is it so important for a re-established Israel to build a Third
Temple in Jerusalem?
Is it necessary to build a temple on the same location already occupied by the Dome
of the Rocks?
Is it necessary for sacrifices to take place in the temple on Temple Mount?
Is there really a rapture followed by seven years of tribulation?
What is the New Testament Temple?
Can we identify history and prophecy?
Who is the first beast in Revelation chapter 13?
Who are the seven kings in Revelation 17?
I have asked all these questions and I have found Nicholas Arthur's new book,
When the Third Temple is Built, answers all these questions and more using
scripture to interpret scripture.
The Bible says that no prophecy of scripture is of any private
interpretation.
Nicholas shows us in his new book, When the Third Temple is Built,
how the Bible interprets prophecy and not man's private interpretation.

Welcome back from the break.
We're continuing in Dave Hunt's book, A Woman Rides a Beast, in the appendix
dealing with purgatory.
This imaginary place, this intermediate place between heaven and earth,
where supposedly sins are purged away.
It's not biblical, it's anti-christian, it denies Christ and his blood.
And puts something else in its place, a lie, from the father of lies.
The bible says, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins,
Hebrews chapter 9 verse 22.
But purgatory isn't even claimed by the Roman Catholic Church to be a place of
blood shedding, but of purifying fire.
Now blood just won't wash away your sins, it's got to be fire, according to the
Roman Catholic Church.
The blood of Jesus Christ has no effect.
We must apply fire in purgatory to purge away your sins.
Fabrication.
Complete and diabolical fabrication.
Designed to eat away at the gospel of Jesus Christ, the saving faith of Jesus
Christ, blotted out by this lying, false doctrine of purgatory.
To strike terror into the hearts of God's people, and make them beholden to the
Roman Catholic Church, the synagogue of Satan, led by his vicar, the Pope of Rome.
Says the only possible purging of our sins was accomplished, it is finished,
by Christ.
It is accepted only by faith.
It is effected in the heart only by the grace of God.
It's a free gift.
A free gift?
Look, if accepting this free gift of Jesus Christ causes me to have to go to
purgatory, what kind of a gift is that?
Shall we say thank you for such a gift?
Wouldn't it be better to just die like a dog?
See what they've done to the gospel?
He says there is a further reason why suffering, either on earth or in purgatory
by the sinner himself, cannot purge from sin.
The one making the sacrifice for sin must himself be without sin.
Now the Bible says we've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God,
so we can't even pay for our own sins, right?
But Rome says you can pay for your own sins by going to purgatory and having them
purged.
The one making the sacrifice for sin must of necessity be without sin.
And the Bible records there was only one who was without sin.
And it ain't the Pope.
And it ain't the Roman Catholic Church.
Pardon my English.
Sixty-two times in the Old Testament we are told that the animals that were
offered for sacrifices must and had to be without blemish, without spot or blemish.
Look, when you brought an offering to the priest to be sacrificed for your sins,
they went over it with a fine-toothed comb.
If there was any blemish or imperfection in that animal, it was rejected.
Not because the animal itself expiated your sins, but because the one who God
would send, the lamb that God would send to purge away your sins, was spotless,
immaculate, without sin.
And his blood would be shed.
And that spotless, sinless blood would indeed, for all time, wash away all sin.
Now, if you want to see these scriptures for yourself, how these animals were
selected, and the perfection that they had to meet in order to satisfy, just read
Exodus chapter 12 verse 5, chapter 29 verse 1, and Leviticus chapter 1 verse 3.
All these lambs and animals, these were types, or symbols of Jesus Christ,
the sinless, holy Lamb of God who would take away the sin of the world.
John chapter 1 verse 36.
Now, thus no amount of suffering by a sinner, either here, on earth,
or in purgatory, could ever purge him or anyone else from sin.
Only a sinless sacrifice can suffice.
And there is only one, that is Jesus Christ, and he either purged your sins or
he didn't.
That's the Bible.
You must accept by faith.
You must believe God when he said, it is finished.
And if you don't have the faith, you can't believe God?
Then no amount of purgation in purgatory is going to make the difference.
Because there is going to be no sinless blood in purgatory, because purgatory
doesn't exist!
So said the Protestant Reformers.
They restored the gospel of Jesus Christ.
And because of that, all of Europe was liberated.
Why, in God's name, would anyone calling himself a Christian wish to unite with the
Roman Catholic Church on any matter of faith or morals?
Why would any Bible-believing Christian have any motivation whatsoever besides
condemning and exposing the Roman Catholic Church for what it is?
The synagogue of Satan.
The counterfeit Christianity that has deceived the whole world.
That has made God's law of no effect.
Who has made the blood of Jesus Christ of no effect.
Who has conceptually, from its very foundation, left us no hope.
Only a sinless sacrifice can suffice to remove and expiate our sins.
But Rome says no.
It says of Christ, we are told, He did no sin.
He knew no sin.
And in Him is no sin.
He was the absolute, spotless Lamb.
And why should we doubt that He was spotless?
He was given to us by God Himself.
You see, none of our sacrifices were sufficient.
Even the blood of lambs and goats were not sufficient.
Even perfect lambs and goats and cattle were not perfect.
Only Jesus is.
And the scripture doesn't say anything about the mass.
The scripture doesn't say anything about purgatory.
The scripture doesn't say anything about transubstantiation.
The scripture doesn't say anything about the Roman Catholic priest except to damn
them.
For daring to usurp the place of the Lamb of God.
Absolute sinlessness was essential or else Christ could not have died for our sins.
He would have been under the penalty of death for His own sins.
Had there been any sin in Him, He would have been under the same penalty
as the rest of us.
So Peter said of Christ that he, quote, The just suffered for us,
the unjust, that He might bring us to God.
God does not dwell in purgatory.
He dwells in heaven.
Jesus brought us to God, to heaven, not purgatory.
1 Peter 3.18 He added that those who lack this assurance have simply forgotten that
they have been purged from their old sins.
2 Peter 1.9 Have you forgotten that Jesus paid it all?
And all to Him you owe?
Not one mention of the Roman Catholic Church or her priests or her many
repeated, worthless, damnable, antichrist sacrifices.
If we have trusted Christ as our Savior, we are.
We are to accept by faith the fact that God has purged us through Christ's
finished work.
There is no debate about it.
The Bible leaves absolutely no room for debate on this subject.
Christ is our all in all.
Jesus Christ's blood wasn't like a coupon we get in the store where we just get a
partial discount, a reduction in the price, but there is still a price to be
paid.
We have to dig down in our pockets and pay.
No, it's a free gift.
Paid in full.
It's paid in full.
Now, what are the origins and the development and the purpose of this false
doctrine called purgatory?
Where is its origin?
Where did it come from?
How did it develop?
And what is the purpose of this hideous doctrine of purgatory?
The idea of purgatory, a fictitious place of final purgation, was invented by Pope
Gregory the Great, Antichrist, Gregory the Great, in 593 A.D.
Now, keep that date in mind, 593 A.D.
There was such reluctance to accept the idea, since it went contrary to the
Scripture, even Roman Catholics were aware that this idea of purgatory goes counter
to the Scriptures, first conceived by Gregory the Great in 593 A.D.,
that purgatory did not become an official Roman Catholic dogma for nearly 850 years.
That's how long it takes to turn a diabolical notion, even that of purgatory,
into an official Roman Catholic dogma.
Even the Roman Catholic Church struggled with this for 850 years, before they made
it a dogma, the Roman Catholic Church.
You suppose there might be some legitimate doubt as to whether purgatory really
exists, since the author and fabricator of this lie even took itself 850 years to
accept it, and to make it a dogma, the Church?
850 years!
And finally, at the Council of Florence in 1493 A.D.
Remember we were talking it was first conceived by Antichrist Gregory the Great
in 593 A.D.?
It took till 1493 A.D.
before it became a dogma in the Roman Catholic Church.
It was resisted even in the Roman Catholic Church.
There was a lot of hand-wringing in 850 years.
But it's a dogma, the Church now.
It's a dogma, the Roman Catholic Church.
And you must believe it on pain of if-so-facto excommunication.
And you ecumenical evangelicals who were once sufficiently purged of your sins by
Jesus Christ's blood alone, now that you've united yourselves with the Roman
Catholic Church, you've got to deal with the issue of purgatory.
Maybe, perhaps, you can open this issue with the Pope once again and add another
850 years.
But in the meantime, the Roman Catholic Church to which you are now united,
you must suffer in purgatory for your sins.
Jesus's blood just couldn't cut mustard.
You've given up a free gift of salvation.
For purgatory.
What a deal.
But you sure have a lot of peace and unity now, don't you?
Not a big celebration.
Catholics and Protestants together.
What a deal.
Kind of like wallowing in the mire with swine, isn't it?
You once wore robes white as snow, washed in the blood of the Lamb.
Now you're wrestling with pigs in a poke.
The trouble is, you can't do that without affecting me and splattering the mire all
over us.
Because we live in the same world, under the same civil governments,
that now expect to hold us to Rome's standards and not to Jesus's.
You've put us all in jeopardy.
You ecumenical evangelicals.
You've brought the fires of hell back.
The New World Order wouldn't be possible if it weren't for Vatican Council II and
ecumenism.
Had the Protestants stood up at Vatican Council II and said, No!
They'd have gone off pouting back to Rome, wouldn't they?
Destroyed once again that dastardly Protestant Reformation.
That dastardly Bible has foiled me again.
But because of ecumenism, all you ecumenical evangelicals have given hope
for a New World Order.
A New World Order without Christ.
And a new global government to silence every voice that opposes it.
To silence my voice.
To silence the voice of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
You hated your Protestantism so much, why didn't you just leave the Church?
Instead of uniting with Antichrist and putting the whole world in jeopardy at the
same time.
You'd have been much better off to renounce the faith in Jesus Christ
altogether.
And die like a dog.
No doctrine has so increased the Roman Catholic Church's power over its members
or added so much to its income.
Filthy lucre!
You wonder why these Roman Catholic Churches are the awe of the world.
Castles, hewn stone, gold plated this, gold plated that.
Marble here, silver and gold and precious pearls there.
Priestly vestments that would pay off your mortgage and get you completely out of
hock.
Or rather just build you a new mansion.
If I could sell the vestments of the Pope, just one set of vestments for the Pope.
His mitre, his tiara, his stole, his cassock, his golden chain around his
neck.
And the precious jewel studded cross that he wears on his chest.
I'd be out of hock.
I could build a new house.
I could buy land.
No doctrine has so increased the Roman Catholic Church's power.
Political power!
Power to control the kings of the earth.
Power to control your government, your federal, state, county and local city
government.
That's the power of the Roman Catholic Church.
Because of the power of purgatory and the pressure it puts on Roman Catholics to
bequeath their land and property to the Roman Catholic Church for masses to be
said in their behalf.
Rome has power, money, political influence.
I hear people talking, writing emails, sending me, you know, things about the
rich ruling elite.
Not having a clue who the rich ruling elite are.
Who are the rich ruling elite?
Does anybody have the courage to tell anybody else who the rich ruling elite
are?
They're the same rich ruling elite that controlled the old world order and
persecuted God's people that are the rich ruling elite today.
The priests, the popes of Rome, and those who are in bed with her and who
take care of her properties and all of her wealth.
And make her laws and impose them on you and me.
They are the rich ruling elite.
And where do they get their money?
From the dead.
From purgatory.
You could pave the streets of the world with gold, the gold that has been given to
the Roman Catholic Church just on this simple doctrine of purgatory that does not
exist anywhere in Scripture.
It's not even implied.
And with that monstrosity, they've created a golden Midas in Rome.
Filthy lucre.
Controlling the masses.
Controlling the government.
Controlling the banks.
Controlling the churches.
Financing the wars of the world.
Purgatory.
The Protestants couldn't find it anywhere in the Scripture.
No doctrine has so increased the Roman Catholic Church's power over its members
and added so much to its financial income.
To this day, the great threat of purgatory hangs over every Roman Catholic.
Who therefore give repeated offerings to the Roman Catholic Church for its help in
getting them out of that place of torment.
Out of that fictitious place of torment.
Rome promises that if its decrees are followed, one will eventually be released
from purgatory and then enter heaven.
Yes, the gates of Saint Peter will be open to you.
Then and only then.
After you've given all your money to the Roman Catholic Church.
That enough masses and prayers might be said in your dead behalf.
Writhing in the flames.
Can you imagine being a Roman Catholic?
And you've got a sinful uncle that has just died.
And you want him in heaven so bad.
That you might even give up a college education.
You might even give up a college education by his way out of purgatory.
You wonder why Rome is so wealthy.
And why so powerful.
Oh, unless you're like most that I talk to and say, oh, the Roman Catholic Church is
destitute.
They're always panhandling.
They're always begging for money.
Look, they've got no power.
They've got no prestige.
They've got no respect in this country.
They're priests of pedophiles.
Never realizing that Rome buys and sells nations.
Just on the money she gets to bail out her prisoners in purgatory.
It's a hideous reality.
But now you know who the rich ruling elite are.
The powers that be.
I just put a name and a face on them.
And somehow now the powers that be of the rich ruling elite just isn't descriptive
enough.
I call it what it is.
The priests and the pedophiles of the Antichrist Church of Rome.
And the head of which is the Satan of Earth.
The Antichrist.
The Pope.

If some voice a cause that you are passionate about, we ask you to give.
If you believe in any of these, we ask you to support them, as you would a

As if giving a tithe for missionary radio.

Built.

When it comes to prophecy today, much of the Evangelical Christian world
has their eyes on Israel, waiting and watching to see when the third temple will
begin to be built.
The plans are drawn, the Jewish people are eager, most Evangelical Christians today
believe that the rapture will happen before the third temple is built.
Hi, I'm Michael Eugene.
I was taught that Daniel's 70th week was in the future.
Is that really what the Bible teaches?
Have we searched the scriptures and found this to be true?
Why is it so important for a re-established Israel to build a third
temple in Jerusalem?
Is it necessary to build a temple on the same location already occupied by the Dome
of the Rock?
Is it necessary for sacrifices to take place in the temple on Temple Mount?
Is there really a rapture followed by seven years of tribulation?
What is the New Testament Temple?
Can we identify history and prophecy?
Who is the first beast in Revelation Chapter 13?
Who are the seven kings in Revelation 17?
I have asked all these questions and I have found Nicholas Arthur's new book,
When the Third Temple is Built, answers all these questions and more using
scripture to interpret scripture.
The Bible says that no prophecy of scripture is of any private
interpretation.
Nicholas shows us in his new book, When the Third Temple is Built,
how the Bible interprets prophecy and not man's private interpretation.
