WEBVTT 00:32.340 --> 00:33.380 Good morning. 00:33.580 --> 00:35.160 Welcome to Inquisition Update. 00:35.480 --> 00:38.140 My name is Tom Friess and I'll be your host for the next hour. 00:38.500 --> 00:41.000 You're listening to firstamendmentradio .com. 00:41.080 --> 00:42.380 Thanks for tuning in, everyone. 00:43.540 --> 00:48.980 We're going to, having left our discussion about Rome's dominion over the kings of 00:48.980 --> 00:54.460 the earth in fulfillment of Bible prophecy, marking her as the whore of 00:54.460 --> 00:56.040 Revelation chapter 17. 00:56.600 --> 01:00.180 We'll continue in Dave Hunt's book, A Woman Rides the Beast, with the next 01:00.180 --> 01:00.620 chapter. 01:00.760 --> 01:05.680 It's entitled, Papal Infallibility and Apostolic Succession. 01:06.500 --> 01:11.080 These are critical foundations upon which the papacy totters. 01:11.980 --> 01:18.600 And this chapter begins with a quote from Brian Kearney in his Origins of Papal 01:18.600 --> 01:19.360 Infallibility. 01:19.640 --> 01:20.260 He says, quote, 01:42.400 --> 01:50.240 So, as late as the 14th century, it was still considered ridiculous to 01:50.240 --> 01:52.280 assert that the papacy was infallible. 01:53.500 --> 02:02.740 And here, a quote from St. Augustine that appears on its face to support papal 02:02.740 --> 02:03.080 infallibility. 02:03.760 --> 02:06.660 It says, quote, Rome has spoken. 02:07.140 --> 02:09.180 The dispute is at an end. 02:09.880 --> 02:10.360 Unquote. 02:10.960 --> 02:15.840 We're going to talk more about this quote from St. Augustine. 02:15.960 --> 02:17.240 It's not what it appears. 02:18.440 --> 02:22.260 Papal Infallibility and Apostolic Succession. 02:23.200 --> 02:24.380 Dave says, 02:42.220 --> 02:46.820 One example is the quote by Augustine on the facing page. 02:47.700 --> 02:52.440 If, as the argument goes, Augustine, the great theologian of the Roman Catholic 02:52.440 --> 02:58.520 Church, was willing to submit to whatever Rome, that is, the Pope and its hierarchy, 02:58.800 --> 03:03.440 decreed, then surely ordinary Roman Catholics ought to do the same. 03:04.680 --> 03:08.980 Such submission, however, is not what Augustine proposed. 03:10.080 --> 03:16.820 In context, taken in context what he said, the quote means something entirely 03:16.820 --> 03:17.320 different. 03:18.560 --> 03:24.660 Two synods had ruled on a disputed matter, and the Bishop of Rome had concurred, 03:24.660 --> 03:28.980 which, quote, appeared to Augustine more than enough. 03:29.500 --> 03:32.900 And so the matter might be regarded as at an end. 03:33.920 --> 03:45.280 That a Roman judgment in itself was not conclusive, but that a concilium 03:45.280 --> 03:52.180 planarium, that is, a council of the entire church, was necessary for that 03:52.180 --> 03:52.700 purpose. 03:52.700 --> 03:55.900 He had himself maintained, unquote. 03:58.340 --> 04:05.940 It was simply taken out of context, and used by the Roman Catholic Church to 04:05.940 --> 04:12.900 support the idea of papal infallibility and apostolic succession, when in fact it 04:12.900 --> 04:13.660 was the opposite. 04:15.360 --> 04:20.300 Such is the deception of the Roman Catholic Church. 04:20.920 --> 04:27.360 Even taking out of context its own theologians, in order to prop up this 04:27.360 --> 04:29.620 phony infallibility of the Pope. 04:31.040 --> 04:36.520 Dave continues, he says, nowhere else in his voluminous writings did Augustine even 04:36.520 --> 04:41.860 come close to suggesting that the Bishop of Rome, the Pope, had the final say on 04:41.860 --> 04:43.240 issues of faith and morals. 04:44.240 --> 04:50.380 In fact, Augustine said that the African church had been correct in rejecting Roman 04:50.380 --> 04:55.040 Bishop Stephen's opinion on settling a baptismal dispute. 04:56.280 --> 05:01.880 Never once in all the arguments that Augustine proposed on many issues did he 05:01.880 --> 05:07.540 suggest that the Bishop of Rome should be consulted as the final arbiter of 05:07.540 --> 05:12.400 orthodoxy, or even that he should be consulted at all. 05:13.380 --> 05:18.940 Interestingly enough, though the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD decreed that the three 05:18.940 --> 05:25.220 bishops of Rome, Alexandria and Antioch, the concept of a Pope still yet unknown, 05:25.920 --> 05:34.220 be designated as quote-unquote superior to other bishops of less important Christian 05:34.220 --> 05:40.440 centers, the Bishop of Rome at that time refused to accept such a distinction for 05:40.440 --> 05:40.900 himself. 05:41.860 --> 05:48.220 Historian Lars Qualben further comments, quote, the General Council of 05:48.220 --> 05:53.760 Constantinople in 381 designated the Bishop of that city a Patriarch, 05:54.160 --> 06:00.500 and the General Council of Chalcedon in 451 gave the same title to the Bishop of 06:00.500 --> 06:07.540 Jerusalem, leaving out the Bishop of Rome, and the Patriarch of Constantinople, 06:07.860 --> 06:12.120 not of Rome, was voted the Chief Bishop of the entire Church. 06:13.260 --> 06:20.940 After the Western Empire was destroyed in 476 AD, the Emperor of Constantinople 06:20.940 --> 06:27.560 became the sole Emperor of the world, and this new dignity naturally added some 06:27.560 --> 06:29.940 prestige to the Patriarch of that city. 06:31.060 --> 06:37.840 The Bishop of Rome and the Patriarch of Constantinople became leading rivals for 06:37.840 --> 06:38.960 Church supremacy. 06:40.400 --> 06:43.300 So where is the apostolic succession in that? 06:44.200 --> 06:46.380 Where is papal infallibility in that? 06:46.460 --> 06:47.480 It's simply not there. 06:49.260 --> 06:50.960 It's simply not there. 06:51.680 --> 06:54.060 A doctrine first declared by emperors. 06:55.020 --> 07:00.400 Dave says emperors had in fact declared the supremacy of the Bishop of Rome over 07:00.400 --> 07:06.720 the Western Church, but not over the Church universal, and called him the Roman 07:06.720 --> 07:11.800 Pope as early as the 5th century. 07:12.840 --> 07:19.640 An edict of the emperors Valentinian III and Theodosius II of 445 AD declared, 07:19.840 --> 07:26.760 we decree by this perpetual edict that it will not be lawful for the bishops of Gaul 07:26.760 --> 07:33.620 or of other provinces to attempt anything contrary to ancient custom without the 07:33.620 --> 07:38.260 authority of that venerable man, the Pope of the Eternal City. 07:39.980 --> 07:45.360 It must be noted that this recognition of papal authority comes from emperors, 07:45.640 --> 07:50.580 not from an ecclesiastical council representing the whole church. 07:51.220 --> 07:55.700 The purpose on the part of the emperors was not to conform to scripture, 07:55.700 --> 07:58.940 but to maintain unity in the empire. 07:59.560 --> 08:01.420 It was for political purposes. 08:02.900 --> 08:08.260 And unity among the rival bishops and their followers was essential to that end. 08:09.480 --> 08:14.120 Rome, being the capital, had to be the center of ecclesiastical authority, 08:14.520 --> 08:16.200 even as it was the civil. 08:17.320 --> 08:22.800 Moreover, for a Catholic to take comfort in such declarations, he must also accept 08:22.800 --> 08:26.580 the fact that at the same time the emperors honored the bishop of Rome's 08:26.580 --> 08:31.340 authority, they made it clear that they were above him. 08:32.400 --> 08:35.360 The emperor was above the pope. 08:38.700 --> 08:40.860 Where's the papal infallibility in that? 08:41.100 --> 08:46.360 Seems to me that if the pope were regarded as infallible, he would be above the 08:46.360 --> 08:47.080 emperor, right? 08:47.720 --> 08:49.560 That's not the way it started out. 08:50.760 --> 08:58.020 Now, the emperor Justinian, for example, in his edict of April 17th, 535 A.D., 08:58.020 --> 09:05.140 on the relations between church and state declared, quote, There is indeed a 09:05.140 --> 09:10.020 recognition of the distinction between the clergy and lay elements in Christian 09:10.020 --> 09:10.680 society. 09:11.220 --> 09:16.220 But for all practical purposes, the emperor is to be the controller of 09:16.220 --> 09:23.480 both, exercising, as he apparently is to do, a supervision over the, quote, 09:23.680 --> 09:27.020 moral well-being, unquote, of the clergy. 09:28.100 --> 09:29.300 Close all quotes. 09:29.440 --> 09:33.300 Boy, we need somebody to be in charge of the moral well-being of the Roman Catholic 09:33.300 --> 09:34.820 clergy these days, don't we? 09:35.780 --> 09:42.200 Time for an emperor to stand up and give the Roman Catholic hierarchy a good 09:42.200 --> 09:50.620 spanking for all the pedophilia Not to mention all the other crimes of the 09:50.620 --> 09:51.180 papacy. 09:52.040 --> 09:57.280 The only one that gets any press these days is the corruption of the Vatican Bank 09:57.280 --> 10:01.380 and the pedophile priest pandemic around the world. 10:01.600 --> 10:07.500 Those two alone are enough to have a complete audit of the Roman Catholic 10:07.500 --> 10:08.020 Church. 10:08.880 --> 10:10.520 But the church skates. 10:11.560 --> 10:17.840 No one dares say a word against the Roman Pontiff, the infallible successor of the 10:17.840 --> 10:18.900 Apostle Peter. 10:20.480 --> 10:27.380 Now, it would be centuries before the popes would establish their authority over 10:27.380 --> 10:33.700 emperors and kings, and even longer before papal infallibility and dominion over the 10:33.700 --> 10:36.020 entire church would be thoroughly established. 10:36.020 --> 10:40.480 In fact, councils asserted their authority over the popes. 10:41.420 --> 10:47.020 More than one council deposed rival claimants to Peter's throne who were 10:47.020 --> 10:51.420 simultaneously insisting that each one was the true vicar of Christ. 10:51.540 --> 10:52.060 That's right. 10:52.440 --> 10:56.320 Many times in Roman Catholic Church history, there were at least two popes 10:56.320 --> 11:01.260 fighting over the throne, each claiming to be the vicar of Christ, the infallible 11:01.260 --> 11:02.320 vicar of Christ. 11:02.320 --> 11:07.420 And at one time, even three popes fighting over that throne. 11:08.760 --> 11:15.760 He says, Though now and then the Bishop of Rome, for his own selfish reasons, 11:16.540 --> 11:22.380 attempted to assert his authority over the rest of the church, it was not accepted by 11:22.380 --> 11:28.420 Christendom in general until near the second millennium, nor could he point 11:28.420 --> 11:33.140 either to tradition or to conciliar decrees to support the idea. 11:34.820 --> 11:40.120 Papal infallibility and apostolic succession have been a controversy within 11:40.120 --> 11:43.440 the Roman Catholic Church for centuries. 11:44.960 --> 11:49.800 No wonder it was a controversy among the Protestant Reformers. 11:50.800 --> 11:57.280 It says the claim was finally made to stick in the West 19 years after the great 11:57.280 --> 12:04.680 schism of 1054 AD, when in 1073, Pope Gregory VII forbade Roman Catholics 12:04.680 --> 12:09.160 to call anyone Pope, except the Bishop of Rome. 12:09.720 --> 12:14.100 Before then, many bishops were fondly addressed as Pope or Papa. 12:14.840 --> 12:19.480 And though the Roman Catholic Church lists Popes going back to the very beginning, 12:20.220 --> 12:24.700 and all the alleged bishops of Rome are now commonly referred to as such, 12:25.340 --> 12:30.360 in actual fact, this title was not commonly accepted in its present meaning 12:30.360 --> 12:33.340 prior to 1073 AD. 12:35.380 --> 12:39.980 Now, under the subtitle, Saving Infallibility by Denying It, Dave Hunt 12:39.980 --> 12:45.380 writes, We have shown that the manner in which many Popes attained that office, 12:45.520 --> 12:51.380 the papacy, through military might, the maneuvering of prostitutes, 12:52.240 --> 12:58.140 purchase, that is, simony, buying the papal throne, patronage of emperors, 12:58.360 --> 13:04.760 mob violence, etc., disproves the claim that the papacy has come down from Peter 13:04.760 --> 13:08.220 by an unbroken line of apostolic succession. 13:08.220 --> 13:09.200 It's a joke. 13:11.220 --> 13:14.360 And God has made it a laughing stock. 13:15.300 --> 13:22.140 For our benefit, God has openly exposed the papacy to this shame, so that no one 13:22.140 --> 13:23.720 would be deceived by him. 13:25.220 --> 13:31.840 He says that more than one Pope occupied Peter's chair at one time, each claiming 13:31.840 --> 13:37.600 to be the one true, infallible, supreme head of the church, and each using 13:37.600 --> 13:43.380 his alleged power to excommunicate the others, also proves the theory of 13:43.380 --> 13:45.620 apostolic succession to be a fiction. 13:46.460 --> 13:52.420 The last time more than one aspirant made simultaneous claims to the papacy, 13:52.940 --> 14:00.720 the issue was settled in a manner which, in fact, also pulls the rug out from under 14:00.720 --> 14:04.040 any valid claim of the Popes to be infallible. 14:05.060 --> 14:10.120 Early in the 15th century, there were three men who each claimed to be the Pope. 14:10.840 --> 14:17.660 They were Gregory XII, who reigned from 1406 to 1415, whose first pontifical act 14:17.660 --> 14:25.700 was to pawn his papal tiara for 6,000 florins to pay his gambling debts. 14:27.100 --> 14:34.700 Benedict XIII, who reigned from 1394 to 1423 of Avignon, one of a number of Popes 14:34.700 --> 14:39.280 who resided at Avignon's papal palace during a schism that lasted for more than 14:39.280 --> 14:45.280 100 years, with rivals in Rome and Avignon each claiming to be the true Pope and 14:45.280 --> 14:49.500 excommunicating each other, and I will add calling one another Antichrist. 14:51.280 --> 14:58.580 And then there was Alexander V, the third contestant for the Holy Throne 14:58.580 --> 15:07.540 of Peter, who reigned from 1409 to 1410, whose chief pastime was feasting, 15:08.280 --> 15:14.480 and who was attended in his regal palace by 400 servants, all of them females. 15:15.680 --> 15:23.640 The latter Pope was poisoned by Baldassare Cosa, who took the pontificate in his 15:23.640 --> 15:29.340 place as John XXIII, who reigned from 1410 to 1415. 15:30.100 --> 15:40.580 Now I'll just add that this John XXIII was such an abhorrent criminal, so exceptional 15:40.580 --> 15:50.040 in his criminality that the Roman Catholic Church made him an antipope, and his 15:50.040 --> 15:51.820 crimes were legion. 15:52.820 --> 16:00.400 Rome would love to repudiate ever having a John XXIII in its list of Popes. 16:01.060 --> 16:06.520 The shame that he brought upon the papacy, well, is ghastly. 16:08.730 --> 16:11.120 How would I describe it? 16:12.160 --> 16:15.520 Diabolical is the only word that suffices. 16:16.180 --> 16:22.020 It says these three Popes were all deposed by the Council of Constance. 16:22.960 --> 16:24.780 Yeah, it was a controversy in the church. 16:25.600 --> 16:31.720 Three men fighting for the crown of Peter, the throne of Peter, all wanting to be the 16:31.720 --> 16:33.960 Antichrist of the Bible. 16:35.300 --> 16:38.800 And it took a church council to settle the issue. 16:39.660 --> 16:45.640 It says these three were all deposed by the Council of Constance, until then the 16:45.640 --> 16:52.000 largest council in the West, with 300 bishops present, 300 doctors, and the 16:52.000 --> 16:54.000 deputies of 15 universities. 16:55.320 --> 17:01.560 Although he is now shown as an antipope, it was Pope John XXIII who formally opened 17:01.560 --> 17:04.460 the council on All Saints Day of 1414. 17:05.460 --> 17:11.720 Such was the intrigue surrounding this gathering of church leaders that some 500 17:11.720 --> 17:18.540 bodies ended up in nearby Lake Constance in the four-year course of that allegedly 17:18.540 --> 17:20.140 holy convocation. 17:21.080 --> 17:29.720 500 bodies, 500 murders, because of the calling of this council to settle the 17:29.720 --> 17:32.280 issue of these three simultaneous Popes. 17:33.220 --> 17:37.480 You see how God has made an open mockery of this system? 17:38.740 --> 17:43.080 And why Rome would so much love to sweep this all under the rug? 17:44.500 --> 17:49.060 We dare not let anybody sweep this history under the rug. 17:50.080 --> 17:54.740 Because the papacy claims the divine right to rule the whole world, every man, 17:54.840 --> 17:56.080 woman, and child in it. 17:57.080 --> 18:04.880 To create a new world order, the very image of the old world order, and we dare 18:04.880 --> 18:06.460 not forget this history. 18:07.600 --> 18:17.400 He says, it was also reported, get this, that 1200 prostitutes had to be 18:17.400 --> 18:22.720 brought in to keep the bishops and the cardinals and their assistants in good 18:22.720 --> 18:24.060 humor during the council. 18:24.060 --> 18:29.140 And even with all this preoccupation with prostitution during the council, 18:29.540 --> 18:31.400 there were 500 murders. 18:32.120 --> 18:34.820 I dare say it didn't keep many in good humor. 18:36.140 --> 18:43.540 Yet this same council, this same council, that was there to settle the issue of the 18:43.540 --> 18:51.060 three contesting popes that bathed in prostitutes the whole period, who 18:51.060 --> 18:55.440 conducted 500 murders during the course of this council. 18:55.600 --> 19:03.920 It was this same diabolical council that condemned the incorruptible John Huss to 19:03.920 --> 19:06.560 the flames in 1415 A.D. 19:07.240 --> 19:12.220 for preaching that there was no higher authority than Holy Scripture, 19:13.020 --> 19:20.860 which all men, even the priests and popes, ought to obey by living Christ-like holy 19:20.860 --> 19:21.560 lives. 19:22.680 --> 19:24.780 You see the irony? 19:25.920 --> 19:27.140 The hypocrisy? 19:28.160 --> 19:32.060 This is what God has laid out before the whole world. 19:33.040 --> 19:41.240 That while this council was doing its diabolical best to out-sin Satan, 19:42.120 --> 19:50.040 they burned at the stake John Huss, a proclaimer of the gospel, and one whose 19:50.040 --> 19:58.440 very life shamed the whole Roman Catholic Church, and no one more so than this 19:58.440 --> 19:59.940 council and these popes. 20:01.220 --> 20:02.980 He was burned at the stake. 20:04.540 --> 20:09.760 Of the three above-named popes who each claimed to be the one true vicar of 20:09.760 --> 20:17.040 Christ, only Gregory XII is now shown in the official lists as a legitimate pope, 20:17.540 --> 20:23.000 though even he was deposed by this council, the other two as anti-popes. 20:23.580 --> 20:31.820 When in 1958 Pope Pius XII's successor took the name John XXIII, more than one 20:31.820 --> 20:36.960 Catholic cathedral, finding that its lists of popes already contained a Pope John 20:36.960 --> 20:41.100 XXIII, had to make a hasty correction. 20:42.000 --> 20:47.880 The original Pope John XXIII has been described as a quote, former pirate, 20:48.660 --> 20:57.080 mass murderer, mass fornicator, with a partiality for nuns, adulterer on a 20:57.080 --> 21:05.200 scale unknown outside fables, demoniac, par excellence, blackmailer, pimp, 21:05.920 --> 21:08.160 master of dirty tricks, unquote. 21:10.020 --> 21:16.000 In a twist worthy of a soap opera, this Pope John XXIII, who opened the 21:16.000 --> 21:20.480 council with great pomp, was condemned by it to prison. 21:21.780 --> 21:25.400 He was treated far more lightly than he deserved. 21:25.400 --> 21:32.480 The original 54 charges brought against him being reduced to a mere five. 21:34.120 --> 21:38.340 They just simply eliminated all but five of the charges. 21:39.400 --> 21:43.560 Edward Gibbon wrote sarcastically in his history of the decline and fall of the 21:43.560 --> 21:48.740 Roman Empire, quote, the most scandalous charges against Pope John XXIII were 21:48.740 --> 21:49.580 suppressed. 21:50.460 --> 21:51.680 They were suppressed. 21:51.800 --> 21:52.980 They didn't even talk about them. 21:53.720 --> 22:00.720 The vicar of Christ was only accused and found guilty of piracy, murder, 22:01.900 --> 22:06.580 rape, sodomy, and incest, unquote. 22:08.240 --> 22:14.260 Why, he was only found guilty of piracy, murder, rape, sodomy, and incest. 22:14.820 --> 22:16.780 He wasn't all that bad. 22:19.680 --> 22:24.540 Whereas incorruptible John Huss had been burned at the stake by the Council of 22:24.540 --> 22:30.620 Constance for pleading church reform, John XXIII was given a mere three-year 22:30.620 --> 22:35.020 prison sentence for his numerous and appalling crimes. 22:37.180 --> 22:40.460 There's what God laid in front of the whole world to witness. 22:42.040 --> 22:47.240 And still, there are so many adherents to the Roman Catholic Church. 22:48.660 --> 22:53.100 And not only that, but the ecumenical evangelic bellies that think it would be a 22:53.100 --> 22:55.820 good thing to reunite with the Roman Catholic Church. 22:57.120 --> 23:01.020 The Roman Catholic Church, now this diabolical institution called 23:01.020 --> 23:08.560 Christianity, is going to Christianize America in the New World Order. 23:09.560 --> 23:14.260 And burn the John Husses of this society. 23:16.400 --> 23:21.300 Cardinal Odo Colonna was named the new Pope by the Council of Constance and 23:21.300 --> 23:22.880 called himself Martin V. 23:23.740 --> 23:26.700 He reigned from 1417 to 1431. 23:27.820 --> 23:34.840 Upon former John XXIII's release from prison, Pope Martin V reinstated this 23:34.840 --> 23:40.780 master criminal and murderer as Bishop of Frascati and Cardinal of Tostum. 23:42.040 --> 23:46.700 Thereafter, exercising the power of the Roman Catholic Church, Cardinal Baldassare 23:46.700 --> 23:54.080 Cosa ordained priests and solemnly turned the wafer and wine into the body and blood 23:54.080 --> 23:54.760 of Christ. 23:54.760 --> 23:57.840 At least, that's what the faithful believed. 23:58.800 --> 24:05.360 As a cardinal, the former Pope John XXIII, now an ex-convict, was qualified to cast 24:05.360 --> 24:10.420 votes for the new popes along with fellow cardinals, many of whom were not far 24:10.420 --> 24:13.640 behind him in the list of their crimes as well. 24:14.820 --> 24:16.760 The Church of Criminality. 24:17.780 --> 24:19.560 And they call it Christian today. 24:20.800 --> 24:21.580 What a horror. 24:22.260 --> 24:24.360 We'll be back right after the message. 24:47.460 --> 24:55.260 You're at first on firstamendmentradio.com and firstamendmentradio.net I know you all 24:55.260 --> 24:59.080 want answers and believe me so do I and I'll do my best to get them. 25:00.080 --> 25:02.320 Have you seen the Left Behind movies? 25:02.980 --> 25:06.220 Have you read the Left Behind fictional book series? 25:06.880 --> 25:10.080 Not everyone believes Left Behind is true prophecy. 25:10.600 --> 25:16.740 Some may even regard as conspiratorial the mainstream re-release of the Left Behind 25:16.740 --> 25:22.160 movie with actor Nicolas Cage portraying the main character as an attempt to 25:22.160 --> 25:27.420 further reinforce, in the minds of all, this perception of false prophecy. 25:27.420 --> 25:32.780 In order to condition the masses for the play about to begin. 25:33.200 --> 25:37.620 Because they see the world stage shaping to fulfill what they have been led to 25:37.620 --> 25:44.280 believe is sound biblical interpretation, a Left Behind rapture scenario, 25:44.800 --> 25:47.900 this false view of prophecy is reinforced in the mind. 25:47.900 --> 25:54.120 Not only of its adherence but also includes those who have been merely 25:54.120 --> 25:56.740 exposed to the specific media. 25:57.360 --> 26:00.360 Is it possible that false prophecy can be fulfilled? 26:00.840 --> 26:03.440 The rapture theories have always been in dispute. 26:03.960 --> 26:10.980 Pre-trib, mid-trib and post-trib disputes have risen up in exclusively evangelical 26:10.980 --> 26:13.300 circles of recent history. 26:13.300 --> 26:19.860 So that when true believers don't suddenly disappear, this element will easily go by 26:19.860 --> 26:25.240 the wayside when all see a new Jewish temple begin to be built. 26:25.660 --> 26:30.100 Will this be part of the great delusion that will come upon the whole earth? 26:30.360 --> 26:36.040 It seems that this great prophetic delusion has already overcome practically 26:36.040 --> 26:41.040 the entire American evangelical and Christian world. 26:41.040 --> 26:44.520 Get the book, The Rapture Will Be Cancelled. 26:44.820 --> 26:53.020 To learn more, visit crosstheborder.org That's C-R-O-S-S,

29:00.880 Called to settle this... well, this glaring contradiction of three popes 29:00.880 --> 29:02.720 all reigning at the same time. 29:02.720 --> 29:08.800 This Council of Constance that resulted in 500 murders, that kept busy 1,200 29:08.800 --> 29:18.440 prostitutes, that slapped on the wrist a diabolical pope, and then burned John Huss 29:18.440 --> 29:22.480 at the stake for preaching the gospel and calling for reform in the Roman Catholic 29:22.480 --> 29:22.940 Church. 29:23.660 --> 29:29.880 This same Council of Constance, Dave Hunt says, saved the church from 29:29.880 --> 29:35.180 three rival popes by asserting its authority over the papacy. 29:36.880 --> 29:39.240 There's your final contradiction. 29:41.040 --> 29:48.920 This diabolical council claimed authority over these diabolical popes. 29:49.860 --> 29:52.840 Where is the papal infallibility here? 29:52.840 --> 29:56.000 Where is apostolic succession here? 29:57.640 --> 30:00.800 The council ruled over the popes. 30:00.900 --> 30:03.320 They decided the issue on these three popes. 30:04.400 --> 30:07.540 And they burned John Huss. 30:08.980 --> 30:13.940 He says the vote was unanimous in establishing the following principle. 30:13.940 --> 30:22.020 Every lawfully convoked ecumenical council representing the church derives its 30:22.020 --> 30:27.860 authority immediately from Jesus Christ, and everyone, the pope included, 30:28.460 --> 30:35.120 is subject to it in matters of faith, in the healing of schism, and the 30:35.120 --> 30:36.480 reformation of the church. 30:38.320 --> 30:44.760 Clearly, the council was asserting its authority over the popes. 30:45.940 --> 30:53.320 Now had papal infallibility as it is known today been accepted then, this solution to 30:53.320 --> 30:57.480 the dilemma of three rival popes would have been impossible. 30:58.320 --> 31:03.380 The very dogma of papal infallibility, which was established at the first Vatican 31:03.380 --> 31:10.480 council as late as 1870 A.D., is a denial of the authority which a previous council, 31:10.580 --> 31:15.700 the Council of Constance, had asserted over popes in order to save the church. 31:17.540 --> 31:19.320 They had to save the church. 31:19.820 --> 31:23.840 The church would have collapsed if this feud between three rival popes would have 31:23.840 --> 31:24.280 continued. 31:25.340 --> 31:31.580 Von Dollinger, the historian, comments are interesting, especially since his book 31:31.580 --> 31:39.560 came out a few weeks before Vatican Council I would contradict Constance on 31:39.560 --> 31:43.060 the important issue of conciliar versus papal power. 31:43.740 --> 31:49.780 Quote, Gregory XII and Benedict XIII had been deserted by their cardinals, 31:49.780 --> 31:58.860 and all that could be held to constitute the Roman Catholic Church took part in the 31:58.860 --> 32:00.020 Council of Constance. 32:00.560 --> 32:05.460 If a pope is subject to a council in matters of faith, he is not infallible. 32:06.180 --> 32:11.140 The church and the council, which represents it, inherit the promises of 32:11.140 --> 32:18.380 Christ and not the pope, who may err apart from the council and can be judged by it 32:18.380 --> 32:19.360 for his errors. 32:19.840 --> 32:26.940 And they, the council's decrees, deny the fundamental position of the papal 32:26.940 --> 32:33.880 system, which is thereby tacitly but very eloquently signalized as an error and 32:33.880 --> 32:34.500 abuse. 32:35.680 --> 32:40.460 Yet that system had prevailed in the administration of the church for centuries 32:40.460 --> 32:46.100 and had been taught in the canon law books and the schools of the religious orders, 32:46.640 --> 32:52.780 especially by Thomas divines, and assumed or expressly affirmed in all 32:52.780 --> 32:57.860 pronouncements and decisions of the popes the new authorities of the laws of the 32:57.860 --> 32:58.220 church. 32:58.920 --> 33:02.440 And now not a voice was raised in its favor. 33:02.940 --> 33:05.580 No one opposed the doctrines of Constance. 33:06.060 --> 33:07.540 No one protested. 33:07.940 --> 33:08.480 Unquote. 33:09.360 --> 33:18.920 So that pretty well puts a period on who really ruled the church before 1870. 33:19.560 --> 33:20.640 It was the councils. 33:21.760 --> 33:24.200 The popes had to obey the councils. 33:24.680 --> 33:29.640 And in many instances they did, until the papacy could gather up enough 33:29.640 --> 33:31.300 strength to overthrow the councils. 33:32.120 --> 33:37.400 And it was finally, papal infallibility was finally made a doctrine, a dogma in 33:37.400 --> 33:38.700 the church in 1870. 33:38.780 --> 33:42.960 It's very new, according to the history of the Roman Catholic Church. 33:44.000 --> 33:50.380 But yet it is papal infallibility that forms the shifting foundation of the new 33:50.380 --> 33:51.040 world order. 33:52.340 --> 33:54.520 Simply a recreation of the old. 33:56.320 --> 33:58.720 Now we'll continue in Appendix E. 33:58.860 --> 34:02.600 We're going to deal with papal heretics, the Bible, and Galileo. 34:03.440 --> 34:08.540 As we've noted, heresy brings automatic excommunication in the Roman Catholic 34:08.540 --> 34:09.000 Church. 34:09.460 --> 34:14.840 Even one papal heretic, if he were not restored by repenting of his heresy, 34:14.840 --> 34:26.060 would bring the line of alleged apostolic succession back to Peter. 34:26.600 --> 34:32.140 As we've shown, there are many popes who were accused of heresy by other popes and 34:32.140 --> 34:38.300 by councils, and a number of popes were formally excommunicated. 34:39.880 --> 34:42.680 Where is the apostolic succession in that? 34:42.680 --> 34:50.380 Pope Adrian VI from 1522 to 1523, who personally pronounced Pope Celestine 34:50.380 --> 34:58.880 III a heretic, declared that John XXII was only one in a long line of papal heretics. 34:59.780 --> 35:04.880 Here we have, again, God making a mockery of the papacy. 35:05.180 --> 35:09.840 Outwardly, in front of the whole world, so that no one would be deceived. 35:10.840 --> 35:14.700 We have popes denouncing other popes. 35:15.800 --> 35:20.320 Infallible popes denouncing other infallible popes of heresy. 35:21.820 --> 35:26.440 Popes that were excommunicated from the Church. 35:28.240 --> 35:32.460 Under the subtitle, A Long Line of Papal Heretics, he continues, he says, 35:32.460 --> 35:39.040 Among the earliest known heretics to sit on Peter's alleged throne was Pope 35:39.040 --> 35:41.940 Liberius, who reigned from 352 A.D. 35:41.980 --> 35:43.260 to 366. 35:44.180 --> 35:47.920 Forced into exile because of a quarrel with the emperor. 35:48.860 --> 35:53.660 You might imagine the emperor was trying to assert himself over the pope. 35:54.960 --> 36:01.820 Liberius was offered repatriation if he would denounce Athanasius, who had led the 36:01.820 --> 36:03.780 fight against the Arian heresy. 36:04.820 --> 36:10.260 No stickler for doctrine, Liberius obliged the emperor and thereby sided with those 36:10.260 --> 36:13.700 who said that the son was less than the father. 36:14.760 --> 36:19.520 An opinion which the Church has consistently denounced as heresy of the 36:19.520 --> 36:20.320 worst sort. 36:21.700 --> 36:24.180 Heretical popes came along quite regularly. 36:24.380 --> 36:28.180 Innocent I, who reigned from 401 to 417 A .D. 36:28.180 --> 36:32.900 And Galatius I, who reigned from 492 to 496 A.D. 36:33.500 --> 36:39.400 Proclaimed that babies went straight to hell, not to the fictitious purgatory, 36:39.760 --> 36:45.360 if they died, though baptized, before receiving communion. 36:46.300 --> 36:50.160 In other words, if a baby in the Roman Catholic Church, baptized in the church, 36:50.320 --> 36:56.740 then dies before taking the Eucharist, they taught that the baby goes straight to 36:56.740 --> 36:57.060 hell. 36:59.120 --> 37:04.780 Now Dave continues, he says, after all, if one takes John chapter 6 verse 53 37:04.780 --> 37:11.160 literally, quote, except ye eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink his blood, 37:11.780 --> 37:16.700 ye have no life in you, unquote, and the Catholics interpret this to be the 37:16.700 --> 37:21.520 Mass, the Eucharist, then these popes were correct. 37:22.260 --> 37:25.920 That view was condemned as heresy by the Council of Trent. 37:27.080 --> 37:27.880 See the contradiction? 37:28.900 --> 37:35.660 God making an open, laughing stock of the pontificate and of the Roman Catholic 37:35.660 --> 37:37.380 Church in its totality? 37:38.800 --> 37:43.160 During the last two years of his pontificate, Sixtus V, who reigned from 37:43.160 --> 37:51.860 1585 to 1590, rewrote the entire Latin Bible, adding phrases and sentences at 37:51.860 --> 37:58.220 whim, leaving out entire verses, changing the titles of the Psalms, 37:58.700 --> 38:01.980 and inventing his own system of chapters and verses. 38:02.900 --> 38:12.980 In a papal bull entitled Aeternus Illi, an allegedly infallible declaration on 38:12.980 --> 38:18.920 faith and morals to the entire church, he declared by, quote, the fullness of 38:18.920 --> 38:26.360 apostolic power, unquote, that this new so-called translation of the Bible must 38:26.360 --> 38:34.400 be, quote, received and held as true, lawful, authentic, and unquestioned in all 38:34.400 --> 38:38.420 public and private discussions, readings, preachings, and explanations, 38:38.600 --> 38:39.140 unquote. 38:39.860 --> 38:43.780 Anyone who disobeyed was excommunicated. 38:44.600 --> 38:47.440 So Sixtus V just wrote his own Bible. 38:48.840 --> 38:56.880 And he forced, as a matter of his infallibility, that it be believed by 38:56.880 --> 38:58.020 every Roman Catholic. 38:59.060 --> 39:02.260 It turned out to be a terrible embarrassment for the church. 39:03.220 --> 39:07.320 It says, of course, when the clergy saw the Pope's astonishing handiwork, 39:07.320 --> 39:13.860 which instantly had made obsolete Council of Trent's approval of the Latin Bible and 39:13.860 --> 39:18.600 all textbooks based upon it, they were horrified. 39:19.540 --> 39:24.820 Fortunately, Sixtus died a few months later, and a cover-up was devised by 39:24.820 --> 39:26.060 Cardinal Bellarmine. 39:26.740 --> 39:32.780 As Peter DeRosa explains, quote, A Bible had been imposed with the 39:32.780 --> 39:37.620 plentitude of papal power, complete with the trimmings of excommunication on the 39:37.620 --> 39:43.140 whole church, and it was riddled with errors. 39:44.020 --> 39:46.580 The academic world was in turmoil. 39:47.220 --> 39:52.500 Protestants, and get this, Protestants were deriving enormous pleasure and 39:52.500 --> 39:55.360 amusement from the predicament of the Roman Catholic Church. 39:55.700 --> 39:57.980 Why do you suppose the Protestants were amused? 39:58.840 --> 40:03.880 Because they all knew the papacy was the Antichrist spoken of in the Bible. 40:04.060 --> 40:06.020 And the papacy was proving it! 40:07.680 --> 40:13.840 I mean, how easy is it to prove the Pope is the Antichrist when he's literally 40:13.840 --> 40:19.360 rewriting the Bible and making a mockery of the entire papacy through all the 40:19.360 --> 40:23.380 ridiculous errors that he put into his Bible. 40:24.310 --> 40:34.820 There was no greater testimony for the diabolical origin of the papacy than 40:34.820 --> 40:40.680 through Sextus V, who had corrupted, obviously corrupted, the Bible. 40:41.620 --> 40:48.360 It says on 11 November 1590, Cardinal Bellarmine returned to Rome, personally 40:48.360 --> 40:53.440 relieved that Sextus, who had wanted him on the Index of Forbidden Books and 40:53.440 --> 40:54.660 Authors, was dead. 40:55.720 --> 40:58.220 He feared for the prestige of the papacy. 40:59.440 --> 41:03.240 Bellarmine was afraid that the papacy would topple because of this corrupt 41:03.240 --> 41:03.700 Bible. 41:04.560 --> 41:07.200 The Protestants were making great hay with it. 41:08.340 --> 41:12.480 He says, furthering the quote, it says, Bellarmine advised the new Pope 41:12.480 --> 41:13.360 to lie. 41:14.480 --> 41:16.900 Some of his admirers have disputed this. 41:17.120 --> 41:18.400 Their task is formidable. 41:19.400 --> 41:20.580 The options were plain. 41:21.040 --> 41:27.500 Admit publicly that a Pope had erred on a critical matter of the Bible, or engage in 41:27.500 --> 41:29.760 a cover-up whose outcome was unpredictable. 41:30.680 --> 41:32.540 Bellarmine proposed the latter. 41:32.840 --> 41:33.620 A cover-up. 41:34.100 --> 41:37.640 Typical Roman option, isn't it? 41:37.640 --> 41:44.500 And it says, Bellarmine and a group of dedicated scholars, sworn to secrecy, 41:45.280 --> 41:50.200 went to work, and in about six months corrected the Pope's errors. 41:51.400 --> 41:56.420 A new edition of the Sextus Bible was published as though it were merely another 41:56.420 --> 42:02.200 printing of the original, and a massive effort was made to recover the original 42:02.200 --> 42:06.840 copies of the heretical publication, which were then destroyed. 42:07.840 --> 42:13.540 As one would suspect, a few copies escaped the search, and have been preserved, 42:14.320 --> 42:17.360 one in the Bodleian Library at Oxford. 42:18.480 --> 42:25.400 These so-called Bibles constitute one more proof that Popes are not infallible, 42:25.720 --> 42:30.020 and that to maintain this lie, the Roman Catholic Church is willing to 42:30.020 --> 42:31.920 tell other lies as well. 42:33.540 --> 42:34.420 Imagine! 42:35.920 --> 42:43.360 And of course, Rome's corruption of the Bible is a permanent fixture. 42:44.060 --> 42:49.060 This is where we get all these new Bible perversions that everybody is so raving 42:49.060 --> 42:49.540 about. 42:50.460 --> 42:59.080 The best hope is to read God's words, pristine and preserved, without any 42:59.080 --> 43:02.240 infallible insertions by infallible Popes. 43:02.460 --> 43:07.720 And I highly recommend the King James Version of the Bible for English-speaking 43:07.720 --> 43:08.240 people. 43:08.880 --> 43:11.300 Get that Bible and don't read the others. 43:12.440 --> 43:18.460 They all have an agenda, and that is to corrupt God's Word, and to make a New 43:18.460 --> 43:20.840 World Order believable. 43:21.520 --> 43:26.260 To deny that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of the Living God and the Messiah, 43:26.460 --> 43:29.540 whose blood cleanses us from all sin. 43:30.700 --> 43:35.540 And to make us all hope for a human Savior, the Pope of Rome. 43:36.560 --> 43:38.780 That's the agenda in these new Bibles. 43:39.920 --> 43:43.560 The King James Version of the Bible is the preserved Word of God. 43:43.660 --> 43:44.560 It is the truth. 43:44.920 --> 43:48.500 And it is the one that Rome hates with a bloody passion. 43:49.600 --> 43:57.120 Now, on this controversy about Galileo, Dave says, Further evidence, if it were 43:57.120 --> 44:03.440 needed, that Popes are not infallible is found in the tragic, or rather the comic, 44:03.640 --> 44:04.820 case of Galileo. 44:05.460 --> 44:12.440 In defense of church dogma, Pope Urban VIII, who reigned from 1623 to 1644, 44:13.100 --> 44:19.140 threatened an elderly and very ill Galileo with torture if he would not renounce his 44:19.140 --> 44:22.120 claim that the earth revolved around the sun. 44:22.980 --> 44:28.140 The official teaching of the Roman Catholic Church was that the earth is 44:28.140 --> 44:33.560 stationary, and the sun, the moon, and the planets revolve around the earth. 44:34.800 --> 44:39.880 And Galileo said, no, the sun is the center of the solar system, and the 44:39.880 --> 44:43.700 planets, including the earth, revolve around the sun. 44:44.580 --> 44:49.420 Now, declaring that this belief was contrary to Scripture, the Pope had 44:49.420 --> 44:55.420 Galileo on his knees, in fear of his life, recanting of this heresy before the Holy 44:55.420 --> 44:56.840 Office of the Inquisition. 44:57.980 --> 45:03.360 The geocentric view, that is, that the earth is the center of the universe, 45:04.260 --> 45:09.960 remained official Catholic dogma for centuries, with infallible Pope after 45:09.960 --> 45:11.780 infallible Pope affirming it. 45:12.600 --> 45:16.720 The earth was the center of the universe, and all heavenly bodies, including the 45:16.720 --> 45:18.220 sun, revolved around it. 45:19.030 --> 45:29.720 It was not until 1922, rather 1992, that the Vatican, after a 14 month study, 45:30.280 --> 45:35.220 finally admitted that Galileo had been indeed right. 45:36.220 --> 45:43.420 That admission was, at that same time, an acknowledgement that many Popes who had 45:43.420 --> 45:48.400 affirmed that Galileo was wrong, were themselves fallible creatures capable 45:48.400 --> 45:51.160 of making false interpretations of Scripture. 45:52.160 --> 45:58.580 Yet Vatican Council 2 reaffirmed the dogma that only the magisterium led by the 45:58.580 --> 46:03.500 infallible Pope may interpret Scripture, and that all the faithful must 46:03.500 --> 46:06.600 unquestioningly accept their interpretation. 46:07.480 --> 46:14.480 Vatican Council 2 And no wonder Vatican Council 2 limits its endorsement of 46:14.480 --> 46:17.260 biblical inerrancy to matters of faith and morals. 46:17.260 --> 46:23.080 It states, quote, The books of Scripture firmly, faithfully, and without error, 46:23.480 --> 46:31.060 teach that truth which God, for the sake of our salvation, wished to see confided 46:31.060 --> 46:33.660 to the sacred Scriptures, unquote. 46:35.040 --> 46:41.140 A Knights of Columbus edition paraphrases this section thusly, quote, Hence, 46:41.380 --> 46:47.720 the Bible is free from error in what pertains to religious truth revealed for 46:47.720 --> 46:48.740 our salvation. 46:49.720 --> 46:54.540 It is not necessarily free from error in other matters, for instance, natural 46:54.540 --> 46:56.840 science, unquote. 46:57.780 --> 47:02.920 Apparently, the God who created the universe and who inspired the Bible 47:02.920 --> 47:05.800 doesn't even know natural science. 47:06.480 --> 47:08.320 Again, a laughing stock. 47:09.540 --> 47:14.240 The magisterium which claims to be infallible, and the only interpreter of 47:14.240 --> 47:18.800 Scripture, is obviously far from infallible, and must therefore have an 47:18.800 --> 47:23.160 excuse for the scientific errors it makes. 47:24.200 --> 47:26.520 Thus, it puts the blame on Scripture. 47:27.680 --> 47:33.160 In denying individuals the personal moral responsibility of heeding God's word, 47:33.680 --> 47:38.800 rather than what some hierarchy has to say about it, the Roman Catholic Church clings 47:38.800 --> 47:47.100 to the last vestiges of authority which it once exercised over the lives and 47:47.100 --> 47:50.460 consciences of all men and governments. 47:50.460 --> 47:57.780 And I will simply add what she expects to recreate in the world in the New World 47:57.780 --> 47:58.060 Order. 47:58.740 --> 48:07.540 To re-establish her authority as she once exercised it over every life, over every 48:07.540 --> 48:11.640 conscience, over every man, and over every government. 48:12.260 --> 48:13.760 That's the New World Order. 48:15.680 --> 48:17.720 Now, what about tradition? 48:17.720 --> 48:23.680 Roman Catholicism teaches Scripture and tradition. 48:24.700 --> 48:26.580 What does the Bible say? 48:27.480 --> 48:33.640 Roman Catholicism does not claim to rest upon the Bible alone, but also upon 48:33.640 --> 48:37.180 tradition, allegedly passed down from the apostles. 48:38.160 --> 48:44.960 However, there is absolutely no Catholic tradition which can be traced back to the 48:44.960 --> 48:45.440 apostles. 48:45.740 --> 48:46.140 None! 48:47.160 --> 48:52.380 Roman Catholic traditions arose much later than that era, the Apostolic Era, 48:52.780 --> 48:56.940 and the idea of infallibility was one of the latest traditions of all. 48:58.020 --> 49:02.940 The very concept of ex-cathedra pronouncements, infallible pronouncements, 49:03.480 --> 49:09.320 so central to infallibility, was not even imagined before the 16th century. 49:10.380 --> 49:15.020 Moreover, it is admitted that tradition has gone through many changes. 49:15.020 --> 49:20.420 Vatican Council II acknowledged, quote, Tradition that comes from the 49:20.420 --> 49:22.480 apostles makes progress. 49:23.600 --> 49:29.300 There is a growth in insight into the realities and words that are being passed 49:29.300 --> 49:30.620 on, unquote. 49:32.680 --> 49:35.180 Let me just summarize it for you real quickly. 49:36.180 --> 49:42.280 When it comes to tradition, the Roman Catholic Church is the same living 49:42.280 --> 49:50.280 tradition, or evolving tradition, as they ascribe to the living Bible. 49:50.620 --> 49:56.760 When you hear a Roman Catholic talk about the living word of God, the living Bible, 49:57.840 --> 50:03.560 they are simply telling you that it changes, as our understanding changes. 50:04.440 --> 50:09.680 So, fluid is the Bible, and fluid is tradition. 50:10.760 --> 50:13.300 There is nothing that we can take for granted. 50:14.620 --> 50:20.740 Wrong changes the traditions, and wrong changes the word at her whim. 50:21.920 --> 50:28.880 Again, an open identification of the papacy and the Roman Catholic Church as 50:28.880 --> 50:30.840 that antichrist of the Bible. 50:32.340 --> 50:40.520 All told, this changing tradition and changing Bible is directed at completely 50:40.520 --> 50:47.260 eliminating the word of God altogether, and transforming the world into a global, 50:47.760 --> 50:49.840 humanist society. 50:51.720 --> 50:53.300 Mission accomplished. 50:54.140 --> 50:57.260 That's what Rome's objective has been from the very beginning. 50:58.780 --> 51:01.260 Here's a quote from Vatican Council. 51:29.700 --> 51:35.760 It is clear, therefore, that in the supremely wise arrangement of God, 51:36.800 --> 51:44.320 sacred tradition, sacred scripture, and the magisterium of the church are so 51:44.320 --> 51:49.900 connected and associated that one of them cannot stand without the others. 51:50.640 --> 51:55.880 Working together, each in its own way, under the action of the Holy Spirit, 51:56.260 --> 52:04.780 they all contribute effectively to the salvation of souls." Now, my listeners can 52:04.780 --> 52:07.880 see the serious problems with this. 52:08.600 --> 52:12.520 Roman Catholics need to see the serious problems with this too. 52:13.700 --> 52:17.820 Dave says, serious problems with this view are immediately apparent. 52:18.480 --> 52:23.420 The Bible is not sufficient in itself, it cannot stand alone, and it does not 52:23.420 --> 52:28.400 have all the truth we need for salvation, but it must be supplemented by tradition 52:28.400 --> 52:33.200 and by the interpretations by the magisterium of the church. 52:34.300 --> 52:39.560 Neither the Roman Catholic Church with its magisterium nor its tradition existed 52:39.560 --> 52:44.820 during the 2,000 years of the Old Testament times, and obviously God's word 52:44.820 --> 52:51.080 of that era, which continues today and is larger in volume than the New Testament, 52:51.880 --> 52:53.500 had no need of either. 52:55.820 --> 53:02.060 I always ask the question, how was the world saved before the Roman Catholic 53:02.060 --> 53:02.660 Church? 53:03.960 --> 53:09.580 Look at the power that she invests in herself, in the involvement of the 53:09.580 --> 53:17.740 salvation of every soul, when the Roman Catholic Church didn't exist before the 53:17.740 --> 53:18.780 3rd or 4th century. 53:20.600 --> 53:22.340 What about all the souls prior? 53:23.380 --> 53:30.600 Again, a common sense mockery of this thing called the Roman Catholic Church, 53:30.940 --> 53:34.680 and God has made it apparent that even a moron can understand. 53:36.120 --> 53:38.580 We understand here at Inquisition Update. 53:52.340 --> 53:54.400 There are few commercials on this radio network. 53:55.120 --> 53:56.540 There's a good reason for that. 53:57.040 --> 54:01.540 Corporate advertising dollars come with strings that limit program content. 54:02.060 --> 54:06.600 So without your help, these programs cannot continue on satellite, internet, 54:06.820 --> 54:09.140 or our several affiliates. 54:09.500 --> 54:14.140 If you benefit by the educational law programs, we ask you to give. 54:14.560 --> 54:19.460 If you are admonished or nurtured by the Bible and ministry programs, we ask you to 54:19.460 --> 54:19.800 give. 54:19.800 --> 54:25.220 If some voice a cause that you are passionate about, we ask you to give. 54:25.780 --> 54:30.320 If you believe in any of these, we ask you to support them, as you would a 54:30.320 --> 54:35.620 missionary, on a continual basis, as if giving a tithe for missionary radio. 54:36.160 --> 54:41.140 These programs are not commercially viable and must be supported by those faithful to 54:41.140 --> 54:42.140 the cause of truth. 54:42.140 --> 54:46.700 Look for the button to sponsor your favorite programs at our Listen and 54:46.700 --> 54:48.540 Schedule pages on the internet. 54:49.340 --> 54:53.520 We will also give you unlimited archive access to all of our programs. 54:53.860 --> 54:58.960 We're asking you to give much less than a tithe, so that you may also send support 54:58.960 --> 55:04.820 directly to a particular program host, cause, and anywhere else the Spirit may 55:04.820 --> 55:05.340 lead you. 55:05.340 --> 55:11.660 Do all to the glory of our God and Creator, for His holy nation, the only 55:11.660 --> 55:13.840 kingdom that will last forever. 55:14.320 --> 55:15.820 Thank you for listening. 55:23.400 --> 55:29.280 Visit crosstheborder.org, C-R-O-S-S, crosstheborder.org, to get your print, 55:29.400 --> 55:34.600 e-pub, or PDF version of Nicholas Arthur's new book titled, When the Third Temple is 55:34.600 --> 55:34.920 Built. 55:35.240 --> 55:36.600 That's crosstheborder.org. 55:36.600 --> 55:40.980 When it comes to prophecy today, much of the Evangelical Christian world 55:40.980 --> 55:45.560 has their eyes on Israel, waiting and watching to see when the Third Temple will 55:45.560 --> 55:46.360 begin to be built. 55:46.900 --> 55:51.880 The plans are drawn, the Jewish people are eager, most Evangelical Christians today 55:51.880 --> 55:54.900 believe that the rapture will happen before the Third Temple is built. 55:55.380 --> 55:56.860 Hi, I'm Michael Eugene. 55:57.400 --> 56:00.060 I was taught that Daniel's 70th week was in the future. 56:00.660 --> 56:02.300 Is that really what the Bible teaches? 56:02.940 --> 56:05.940 Have we searched the scriptures and found this to be true? 56:06.600 --> 56:10.240 Why is it so important for a re-established Israel to build a Third 56:10.240 --> 56:11.120 Temple in Jerusalem? 56:11.880 --> 56:16.340 Is it necessary to build a Temple on the same location already occupied by the Dome 56:16.340 --> 56:16.800 of the Rock? 56:17.500 --> 56:21.380 Is it necessary for sacrifices to take place in the Temple on Temple Mount? 56:21.880 --> 56:25.180 Is there really a rapture followed by seven years of tribulation? 56:26.000 --> 56:27.440 What is the New Testament Temple? 56:28.320 --> 56:30.380 Can we identify history and prophecy? 56:31.040 --> 56:34.200 Who is the first beast in Revelation Chapter 13? 56:34.900 --> 56:37.440 Who are the seven kings in Revelation 17? 56:38.200 --> 56:41.780 I have asked all these questions and I have found Nicholas Arthur's new book, 56:42.160 --> 56:46.620 When the Third Temple is Built, answers all these questions and more using 56:46.620 --> 56:48.220 scripture to interpret scripture. 56:48.860 --> 56:52.340 The Bible says that no prophecy of scripture is of any private 56:52.340 --> 56:52.640 interpretation. 56:53.500 --> 56:56.740 Nicholas shows us in his new book, When the Third Temple is Built, 56:56.920 --> 57:01.420 how the Bible interprets prophecy and not man's private interpretation. 57:02.480 --> 57:08.740 Visit crosstheborder.org, c-r-o-s-s, crosstheborder.org, to get your print, 57:09.160 --> 57:14.440 e-pub, or pdf version of Nicholas Arthur's new book titled, When the Third Temple is 57:14.440 --> 57:14.780 Built. 57:15.000 --> 57:16.820 That's crosstheborder.org.
