WEBVTT 00:27.080 --> 00:32.160 Good evening and welcome to the Investigative Journal radio show. 00:33.140 --> 00:39.060 And as a public service, we interrupt our daily broadcast schedule periodically to 00:39.060 --> 00:43.340 present continuing online audio educational courses. 00:43.880 --> 00:49.980 The purpose of these audio courses is to present vital material or hidden 00:49.980 --> 00:54.540 historical truths kept from the American people and kept from the people of the 00:54.540 --> 00:58.980 world that are normally presented in a sporadic manner on the internet. 00:59.440 --> 01:00.780 You know what I'm talking about. 01:00.900 --> 01:05.340 You can get them in many places, but no one's sure of the validity or 01:05.340 --> 01:07.820 whether they're reading the truth or not. 01:08.460 --> 01:16.080 But instead now, the Investigative Journal is proud to present these online 01:16.080 --> 01:21.020 educational courses and we thank the Liberty Radio Network for allowing this to 01:21.020 --> 01:21.380 occur. 01:22.300 --> 01:26.900 Instead, we are going to be placing this information in an organized educational 01:26.900 --> 01:32.140 course structure, the type you may find in a normal university in America. 01:32.760 --> 01:38.360 The courses you will listen to and subscribe to into the future are not of 01:38.360 --> 01:39.200 the normal nature. 01:39.620 --> 01:43.640 You will not find any of these courses taught in the universities of higher 01:43.640 --> 01:48.860 learning and that is the reason that this online course and these courses are going 01:48.860 --> 01:49.700 to be presented. 01:50.480 --> 01:57.400 First of all, the main topic of this whole idea that we're presenting online is to 01:57.400 --> 02:00.820 really find out the hidden truths, find out about the inner workings of the 02:00.820 --> 02:06.460 New World Order and how Americans can get vital information in an educational, 02:06.840 --> 02:12.420 organized manner from people who are experts in their fields. 02:13.040 --> 02:16.460 The subjects that we're going to be talking about are highly volatile, 02:16.460 --> 02:22.580 many times hidden, many times suppressed by all educational facilities in our 02:22.580 --> 02:25.280 country and also media outlets. 02:26.040 --> 02:32.980 It is time to move away from entertainment and to again research the real problems 02:32.980 --> 02:37.560 facing America in all areas of entertainment, all areas of our media, 02:37.960 --> 02:41.320 all areas of our government, all areas of our religious organizations. 02:42.150 --> 02:48.600 And tonight we are presenting a course that Professor Eric Phelps will present 02:48.600 --> 02:53.020 and he's going to take over for two hours and the course is going to be presented in 02:53.020 --> 02:54.740 a three-part manner. 02:55.060 --> 03:00.520 Two hours tonight, two hours tomorrow evening, and two hours Wednesday night. 03:00.680 --> 03:05.820 And the course is the introductory course on the understanding of the Jesuit Order. 03:06.540 --> 03:12.660 The course will entail three areas, that is you will be able to listen to it 03:12.660 --> 03:18.020 live of course, you can be able to listen to it on Liberty Radio archives, 03:18.200 --> 03:25.340 and in the future it will be placed on my online educational internet site that I 03:25.340 --> 03:25.880 will have. 03:26.300 --> 03:30.900 And when you get those archives, you'll be able to have course 03:30.900 --> 03:36.440 restrictions, you'll have course duties, you'll be able to listen to your audios, 03:36.840 --> 03:41.860 and then participate in an online blog as well as write essays and do different 03:41.860 --> 03:46.980 things so that we can begin to talk about these subjects in a serious manner. 03:47.220 --> 03:54.320 As our counterparts do in other areas such that they consider to be the truth. 03:54.760 --> 03:59.240 The first course, like I said, is presented tonight by Eric John Phelps. 03:59.240 --> 04:02.960 He will take over for two hours, it will be presented in this manner. 04:03.800 --> 04:08.780 He will talk until the bottom of the hour where we'll take a three minute break to 04:08.780 --> 04:13.700 recognize the people that are supporting this online type of educational process. 04:14.300 --> 04:19.560 He will then come back and continue the course, and at the top of the hour take a 04:19.560 --> 04:22.520 two minute break to do the same, and then repeat that for the second hour. 04:22.920 --> 04:27.300 Tonight is part one, tomorrow will be part two, and Wednesday part three. 04:27.300 --> 04:33.060 I am your moderator, Greg Szymanski, and now I turn the show over to Eric John 04:33.060 --> 04:33.500 Phelps. 04:33.820 --> 04:35.260 Eric, it's all yours. 04:36.380 --> 04:38.820 Pleasure to be with you Greg and your listeners tonight. 04:40.600 --> 04:49.280 Greg and I feel that it is incumbent upon us to set forth the history of the papacy, 04:50.220 --> 04:57.060 namely its dark ages, and the power of the popes at the time over the political 04:57.060 --> 05:01.640 governments, the kings and queens of Europe, as well as the Far East, 05:02.460 --> 05:08.480 and then the ensuing Reformation, the Protestant Reformation beginning in 05:08.480 --> 05:15.200 1517 when Luther nailed his 95 Thesis to All Saints Church in Wittenberg, 05:16.360 --> 05:21.820 and then the resultant Counter-Reformation started by Loyola. 05:22.820 --> 05:32.380 And it is in this flow and stream of history that we can better understand the 05:32.380 --> 05:39.380 power and purpose of the Jesuit Order and its power today, so that it doesn't look 05:39.380 --> 05:45.120 like we have pulled the Jesuit Order as a genie out of our hat and decided to blame 05:45.120 --> 05:50.740 it for all the way the world is in this particular situation now, especially in 05:50.740 --> 05:51.260 the U.S. 05:51.920 --> 05:57.540 So in order to understand the Jesuit Order, we have to go back several 05:57.540 --> 06:04.080 centuries prior to its establishment and see the power of the popes during the dark 06:04.080 --> 06:04.500 ages. 06:05.380 --> 06:14.600 In my book, Wounded in the House of My Friends, I have an extra CD to that kit 06:14.600 --> 06:17.840 that has 13 old books on it. 06:18.240 --> 06:23.460 One of those old books is titled The History of Romanism by John Dowling. 06:24.060 --> 06:25.500 It is a classic. 06:25.840 --> 06:27.900 It was finished in 1845. 06:27.900 --> 06:32.260 It is full of verve and vigor, written by a man who believed the Word of 06:32.260 --> 06:39.340 God and truly was a Christian gentleman who's master and Lord was the Lord Jesus 06:39.340 --> 06:40.560 Christ of the Scriptures. 06:41.340 --> 06:46.060 And with all of this understanding that he had from the Scriptures, he dug out this 06:46.060 --> 06:50.540 history from some of the greatest historians of the past like Hallam and H 06:50.540 --> 06:50.700 .C. 06:50.760 --> 06:56.220 Lee and others, Rank, Diabny and others. 06:56.440 --> 07:02.100 And he puts all of this in a wonderful narration that extends, I would say, 07:02.760 --> 07:05.760 in excess of 700 pages. 07:06.300 --> 07:11.740 But it is all on my CD there and what I am reading to you tonight, you will be able 07:11.740 --> 07:16.420 to read along with as you obtain a copy of my book with its attached CD, which is 07:16.420 --> 07:16.700 free. 07:18.120 --> 07:22.400 So to begin with, we will start with the Dark Ages. 07:23.320 --> 07:29.540 And there are two popes that we wish to remember that at the meridian of papal 07:29.540 --> 07:37.680 power, these popes exercised a power that was absolute, that was unfettered and we 07:37.680 --> 07:41.680 stand in astonishment as we look at what they claim to be. 07:42.560 --> 07:47.380 The first pope is Hildebrand, who came to power in 1073. 07:48.120 --> 07:53.080 The second pope is Innocent III, who came to power a couple of centuries 07:53.080 --> 07:53.460 later. 07:53.600 --> 07:55.460 He was the reigning pope in 1215. 07:55.940 --> 07:59.440 At the time he condemned the Magna Charta in England. 07:59.800 --> 08:05.720 It began to be the real charter of rights for English freemen. 08:06.560 --> 08:19.900 So we shall begin with Endowings History of Romanism on page 240, concerning this 08:19.900 --> 08:23.860 pope called Hildebrand, or later Gregory VII. 08:28.660 --> 08:34.340 Hildebrand was a man of uncommon genius, whose ambition in forming the most arduous 08:34.340 --> 08:38.800 projects was equaled by his dexterity in bringing them into execution. 08:40.000 --> 08:44.520 Suggestive, crafty, and intrepid, nothing could escape his penetration, 08:45.400 --> 08:48.080 defeat his stratagems, or daunt his courage. 08:48.940 --> 08:54.420 Haughty and arrogant beyond all measure, obstinate, impetuous, and intractable, 08:55.060 --> 08:57.800 he looked up to the summit of universal empire. 08:57.800 --> 09:05.340 I repeat, universal empire, with a wishful eye, and labored up to the steep ascent 09:05.340 --> 09:09.660 with uninterrupted ardor and invincible perseverance. 09:10.620 --> 09:15.760 Void of all principle, and destitute of every pious and virtuous feeling, 09:16.440 --> 09:21.360 he suffered little restraint in his audacious pursuits from the dictates of 09:21.360 --> 09:24.260 religion or the remonstrances of conscience. 09:24.260 --> 09:30.240 Such was the character of Hildebrand, and his conduct was every way suitable to 09:30.240 --> 09:35.980 it, for no sooner did he find himself in the papal chair than he displayed to the 09:35.980 --> 09:39.860 world the most odious marks of his tyrannic ambition. 09:40.670 --> 09:47.060 Not contented to enlarge the jurisdiction, and to augment the opulence of the sea of 09:47.060 --> 09:52.720 Rome, he labored indefatigably to render the universal church subject to the 09:52.720 --> 09:58.240 despotic government and the arbitrary power of the pontiff alone, to dissolve 09:58.240 --> 10:03.440 the jurisdiction which kings and emperors had hitherto exercised over the various 10:03.440 --> 10:08.680 orders of the clergy, and to exclude them from all part of the management or 10:08.680 --> 10:11.300 distribution of the revenues of the church. 10:12.300 --> 10:17.640 Nay, this outrageous pontiff went still farther, and impiously attempted to submit 10:17.640 --> 10:21.780 to his jurisdiction the emperors, kings, and princes of the earth, 10:22.440 --> 10:25.780 and to render their dominions tributary to the sea of Rome. 10:25.780 --> 10:28.580 We'll pause for a few comments here. 10:29.580 --> 10:32.480 We see that Hildebrand was a genius. 10:33.660 --> 10:35.820 We must attribute this to many popes. 10:36.260 --> 10:37.180 They are brilliant. 10:37.600 --> 10:38.870 They are intellectual geniuses. 10:40.080 --> 10:46.140 They have visions and dreams of fulfilling what they desire, which is universal 10:46.140 --> 10:49.280 spiritual power and universal temporal power. 10:49.280 --> 10:55.260 We must not forget that in 606, the pope was given universal spiritual 10:55.260 --> 11:02.800 power, and 150 years later, in 756, he was given universal temporal power by 11:02.800 --> 11:03.140 Pepin. 11:03.980 --> 11:10.040 So, as a result of this, every pope thereon and thereafter sought to enhance 11:10.040 --> 11:11.860 and enlarge these two powers. 11:12.620 --> 11:18.540 These two powers are represented on the papal flag that any of you can see if you 11:18.540 --> 11:23.560 go by any Roman Catholic school, or in my nearby area, a Jesuit church. 11:23.560 --> 11:29.300 One of the flags they fly is the papal flag, which is a crown of the pope, 11:29.680 --> 11:36.420 a triple crown, with two keys crossed, each key symbolizing the powers of the 11:36.420 --> 11:36.680 pope. 11:37.060 --> 11:42.160 The first being his universal spiritual power, that every creature is to be 11:42.160 --> 11:44.620 subject to the spiritual power of the pope. 11:44.620 --> 11:50.040 And the other key is his universal temporal power, that every king, 11:50.380 --> 11:56.680 that every military dictator, that every president, that every prime minister is to 11:56.680 --> 11:58.020 be subject to his rule. 11:58.640 --> 12:04.120 It is these two powers that the papacy works with all of their might, 12:04.260 --> 12:09.340 day and night, in conspiracy against all the governments of man, to establish 12:09.340 --> 12:14.360 making the white pope, or the pope that is visible dressed in white, the universal 12:14.360 --> 12:15.540 monarch of the world. 12:16.100 --> 12:21.620 And this is the foundation, this is the theological foundation, for what we call 12:21.620 --> 12:23.680 today the New World Order. 12:24.140 --> 12:29.940 The New World Order is nothing more than the reversion back to the Old World Order, 12:30.380 --> 12:36.440 which was the dark ages of the papacy, or what Dowling calls the Iron Age of Man. 12:37.580 --> 12:42.680 Continuing on page 240 of Dowling's History of Romanism, we read, quote, 12:43.340 --> 12:50.820 The views of Hildebrand, or Hellbrand, as from his insane ambition he has been 12:50.820 --> 12:56.240 appropriately styled, were not confined to the erection of an absolute and universal 12:56.240 --> 12:57.580 monarchy in the church. 12:58.320 --> 13:04.360 They aimed also at the establishment of a civil monarchy, equally extensive and 13:04.360 --> 13:04.880 despotic. 13:04.880 --> 13:11.880 And this aspiring pontiff, after having drawn up a system of ecclesiastical 13:11.880 --> 13:17.640 canons, canons being laws or statutes, for the government of the church, 13:18.280 --> 13:24.400 would have introduced also a new code of political laws, had he been permitted to 13:24.400 --> 13:26.100 execute the plan he had formed. 13:26.100 --> 13:32.920 His purpose was, says Mosheim, Mosheim was a premier Protestant 13:32.920 --> 13:37.680 historian, and one of his works was the History of the Church by Mosheim, 13:37.760 --> 13:43.460 and so Mosheim says here, To engage in the bonds of fidelity and allegiance to St. 13:43.560 --> 13:49.960 Peter, i.e., to the Roman Pontiffs, all the kings and princes of the earth, 13:50.620 --> 13:57.040 and to establish at Rome an annual assembly of bishops, by whom the contests 13:57.040 --> 14:02.080 that might arise between kingdoms of sovereign states were to be decided, 14:02.720 --> 14:08.180 the rights and pretensions of princes to be examined, and the fate of nations and 14:08.180 --> 14:09.680 empires to be determined. 14:10.940 --> 14:18.080 Making this in simple language, the Pope, or Helbrand, claimed that he had 14:18.080 --> 14:24.600 the right to a universal monarchy in the earth, that he was the one to establish 14:24.600 --> 14:32.280 that monarchy, and that any problems between monarchs in their various kingdoms 14:32.280 --> 14:35.880 or sovereign states were to be decided by himself. 14:36.640 --> 14:42.500 Dear listener, do you understand why the Pope now has an honorary chair in the 14:42.500 --> 14:43.180 United Nations? 14:44.420 --> 14:50.620 It is here that he claims he has the right to decide the fate of nations, 14:51.140 --> 14:59.220 the future of wars, the decision of how the Cold War will be waged, and while 14:59.220 --> 15:04.060 always under the guise of calling for peace, when in fact he is the mover and 15:04.060 --> 15:10.340 shaker of every war, at least since the beginning of the Counter-Reformation in 15:10.340 --> 15:15.300 1540 with the establishment of the Jesuit Order. 15:15.900 --> 15:23.260 So here we have this most notorious Pope, Hildebrand, with these powers that he 15:23.260 --> 15:23.700 claims. 15:25.080 --> 15:31.460 Now we are going to see an example of this power over one of the Holy Roman Emperors 15:31.460 --> 15:33.780 of Europe, whose name was Henry IV. 15:34.900 --> 15:38.000 We now will begin reading page 241. 15:38.500 --> 15:43.400 The contest which Gregory carried on for several years with the unfortunate Emperor 15:43.400 --> 15:49.800 Henry IV, affords an instructive comment upon the deep-laid plans of this most 15:49.800 --> 15:52.100 imperious and ambitious Pope. 15:52.100 --> 15:58.340 Soon after his election, Gregory was informed that Solomon, King of Hungary 15:58.340 --> 16:04.020 dethroned by his brother Gatia, had fled to Henry for protection and 16:04.020 --> 16:06.580 renewed the homage of Hungary to the Empire. 16:07.620 --> 16:14.560 Gregory, who favored Gatia, exclaimed against this act of submission and said in 16:14.560 --> 16:20.880 a letter to Solomon, You ought to know that the Kingdom of Hungary belongs to the 16:20.880 --> 16:21.880 Roman Church. 16:23.000 --> 16:29.440 I repeat, that the Kingdom of Hungary belongs to the Roman Church, and learn 16:29.440 --> 16:34.980 that you will incur the indignation of the Holy See if you do not acknowledge that 16:34.980 --> 16:38.940 you hold your dominions of the Pope and not of the Emperor. 16:39.880 --> 16:49.580 So what Hildebrand was saying to this Gatia, that you hold your kingdom not from 16:49.580 --> 16:54.980 Henry IV, the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, of the First Reich, the First 16:54.980 --> 17:00.920 German Reich, but you hold it as a matter of privilege from the Pope. 17:02.740 --> 17:04.740 This holds today. 17:05.840 --> 17:12.680 This doctrine is as much in effect today as it was back then in the 11th century. 17:13.620 --> 17:15.520 This is why when F. 17:15.640 --> 17:22.240 Kennedy refused to be governed by the Pope of Rome, when he publicly declared this in 17:22.240 --> 17:30.400 1960, when he repudiated the temporal power of the Pope, this is when the 17:30.400 --> 17:35.620 Jesuits set out for his assassination, and this was in 1960, before he had been 17:35.620 --> 17:36.360 elected President. 17:36.940 --> 17:41.680 He had had the Democratic nomination, and he met before a series of Protestant 17:41.680 --> 17:46.920 ministers in Houston, Texas, and when he publicly said that no Pope will tell any 17:46.920 --> 17:52.900 American President how to rule the affairs of state, he repudiated this temporal 17:52.900 --> 17:59.080 power, which Hildebrand had so championed, and thereby incurred the wrath of the 17:59.080 --> 18:03.580 papacy, because in the eyes of Pope Paul VI, John F. 18:03.720 --> 18:10.240 Kennedy held the American Presidency by extension of the Pope of Rome. 18:11.520 --> 18:14.100 We continue now with Dowling's narration. 18:16.880 --> 18:20.840 This presumptuous declaration, and the neglect it meant with, 18:21.080 --> 18:24.500 brought the quarrel between the Empire and the Church to a crisis. 18:25.560 --> 18:28.940 Now we have a quarrel between Hildebrand and Henry IV. 18:30.520 --> 18:36.300 It was directed to Solomon, but intended for Henry, and if Gregory could not 18:36.300 --> 18:39.780 succeed in one way, he was resolved that he would in another. 18:39.780 --> 18:45.220 He therefore resumed the claim of investitures, for which he had a more 18:45.220 --> 18:51.120 plausible pretense, and as that dispute and its consequences merit particular 18:51.120 --> 18:55.640 attention, we shall relate briefly the origin and history of this protracted 18:55.640 --> 18:58.300 quarrel between the Pope and the Emperors. 18:59.300 --> 19:04.520 The investiture of bishops and abbots commenced, undoubtedly at that period of 19:04.520 --> 19:09.240 time when the European emperors, kings and princes, made grants to the 19:09.240 --> 19:14.260 clergy, that is not done anymore by the way, of certain territories, lands, 19:14.440 --> 19:15.800 forests, castles, etc. 19:16.720 --> 19:21.400 According to the laws of those times, laws which still remain in force as of 19:21.400 --> 19:27.040 1845, none were considered as lawful possessors of the lands or tenements which 19:27.040 --> 19:31.180 they derived from the emperors or other princes before they repaired to court, 19:31.920 --> 19:35.660 took the oath of allegiance to their respective sovereigns as supreme 19:35.660 --> 19:40.400 proprietors, and received from their hands a solemn mark by which the property of 19:40.400 --> 19:42.580 their respective grants was transferred to them. 19:43.500 --> 19:47.660 Such was the manner in which the nobility and those who had distinguished themselves 19:47.660 --> 19:52.640 by military exploits were confirmed in the possessions which they owed to the 19:52.640 --> 19:54.040 liberality of their sovereigns. 19:55.000 --> 19:59.960 But the custom of investing the bishops and abbots with the ring and the cross 19:59.960 --> 20:05.360 here, which are the ensigns of the sacred function, is of a much more recent date, 20:05.920 --> 20:10.300 and was then first introduced when the European emperors and princes assumed to 20:10.300 --> 20:15.520 themselves the power of conferring on whom they pleased the bishoprics and abbots 20:15.520 --> 20:20.200 that became vacant in their dominions, nay, even of selling them to the highest 20:20.200 --> 20:20.540 bidder. 20:21.400 --> 20:25.340 This power, then, being once usurped by the kings and priests of Europe, 20:25.900 --> 20:29.540 they at first confirmed the bishops and abbots in their dignities and possessions 20:30.080 --> 20:34.320 with the same forms of ceremonies that were used in investing the counts, 20:34.760 --> 20:39.200 knights, and others in their feudal tenures, even by written contracts, 20:40.060 --> 20:44.160 in the ceremony of presenting them with a wand or bough. 20:45.080 --> 20:49.560 And this custom of investing the clergy and the laity with the same ceremonies 20:49.560 --> 20:53.740 would have undoubtedly continued had not the clergy to whom the right of electing 20:53.740 --> 20:58.520 bishops and abbots originally belonged eluded artfully the usurpation of the 20:58.520 --> 21:01.740 emperors and other princes by the following stratagem. 21:01.740 --> 21:03.880 Now watch this stratagem here. 21:04.260 --> 21:09.780 Remember, here are bishops and abbots receiving their right to rule by the 21:09.780 --> 21:10.360 sovereigns. 21:10.380 --> 21:12.220 This is going to end with Hildebrand. 21:12.920 --> 21:17.880 Hildebrand is going to take this power and he is going to usurp it over Henry IV. 21:19.160 --> 21:21.120 We go now to section 8. 21:21.740 --> 21:26.960 Considering the character of Gregory VII, or Hildebrand, it is no wonder that he 21:26.960 --> 21:32.000 could ill brook this conduct of the emperors and thus securing to themselves 21:32.000 --> 21:36.520 the right of confirming the election of bishops by the ceremony of investing them 21:37.070 --> 21:38.580 with the ring and the crozier. 21:39.380 --> 21:44.760 Accordingly, we find that in 1075 Gregory assembled a council at Rome in which he 21:44.760 --> 21:50.640 excommunicated certain favors of Henry and pronounced a formal anathema, or curse, 21:50.640 --> 21:56.400 against whoever received the investiture of a bishopric or abbacy from the hands of 21:56.400 --> 22:02.880 a layman, namely an emperor, as also against those by whom the investiture 22:02.880 --> 22:03.840 should be performed. 22:04.700 --> 22:10.780 This decree was doubtless aimed chiefly at the emperor, who strenuously insisted on 22:10.780 --> 22:15.620 his asserted right of investiture, which his predecessors had enjoyed. 22:16.420 --> 22:21.760 As Henry continued to disregard the Pope's decree, Gregory sent two legates to summon 22:21.760 --> 22:26.800 him to appear before him as a delinquent, because he still continued to bestow 22:26.800 --> 22:30.960 investitures, notwithstanding the apostolic decree to the contrary, 22:31.600 --> 22:36.420 adding that if he should fail to yield obedience to the Church, he must expect to 22:36.420 --> 22:39.140 be excommunicated and dethroned. 22:40.180 --> 22:46.340 I repeat, that if he should fail to yield obedience to the Church, he must expect to 22:46.340 --> 22:48.640 be excommunicated and dethroned. 22:49.300 --> 22:56.180 This is now a classic example of the Popes exercising their temporal power. 22:57.640 --> 23:02.480 Incensed at that arrogant message from one whom he considered as his vassal, 23:03.080 --> 23:07.540 Henry dismissed the legates with very little ceremony, and convoked an assembly 23:07.540 --> 23:11.760 of all the German princes and dignified ecclesiastics at Worms, where, 23:11.960 --> 23:16.580 after mature deliberation, they concluded that Gregory having usurped the chair of 23:16.580 --> 23:22.060 St. Peter by indirect means, infected the Church of God with many novelties and 23:22.060 --> 23:27.620 abuses, and deviated from his duty to his sovereign in several scandalous attempts, 23:28.240 --> 23:32.200 the Emperor, by that supreme authority derived from his predecessors, 23:32.380 --> 23:36.080 ought to divest him of his dignity and appoint another in his place. 23:36.280 --> 23:39.880 So here now is the Holy Roman Emperor deciding to get rid of the Pope. 23:40.540 --> 23:45.440 And the Pope now has told the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry IV, you are going to be 23:45.440 --> 23:48.560 subject to me because if you are not I am going to excommunicate you. 23:48.880 --> 23:54.900 So here is a classic war that we as historians and as all American people must 23:54.900 --> 23:57.020 remember as a classic example of history. 23:57.700 --> 23:59.460 Watch the outcome of this. 23:59.900 --> 24:06.320 Between Hildebrand, who is Gregory VII, and the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry IV. 24:07.700 --> 24:12.380 Henry immediately dispatched an ambassador to Rome with a formal deprivation of 24:12.380 --> 24:17.540 Gregory, who in his turn convoked a council, at which were present 110 24:17.540 --> 24:22.340 bishops, who unanimously agreed that the Pope had just caused to depose Henry, 24:22.880 --> 24:27.260 to dissolve the oath of allegiance which the princes and states had taken in his 24:27.260 --> 24:32.940 favor, and to prohibit them from holding any correspondence with him on pain of 24:32.940 --> 24:33.820 excommunication. 24:33.820 --> 24:36.720 So now they could not even talk to the Emperor. 24:37.480 --> 24:41.660 And that sentence was immediately fulminated against the Emperor and his 24:41.660 --> 24:42.140 adherents. 24:42.540 --> 24:47.960 Quote, in the name of almighty God and by your authority, said Gregory, alluding to 24:47.960 --> 24:53.180 the members of the council, I prohibit Henry, the son of our Emperor Henry, 24:53.840 --> 24:59.320 from governing the Teutonic Kingdom, namely Germany and Italy, and I release 24:59.320 --> 25:04.140 all Christians, namely Roman Catholics, from their oath of allegiance to him and I 25:04.140 --> 25:08.160 strictly forbid all persons from serving or attending him as king. 25:08.820 --> 25:09.280 Unquote. 25:10.400 --> 25:17.320 Thus, says Hallam, Gregory VII obtained the glory of leaving all his predecessors 25:17.320 --> 25:22.800 behind, all the previous Popes behind, and astonishing mankind by an act of 25:22.800 --> 25:28.200 audacity and ambition, which the most emulous of his successors could hardly 25:28.200 --> 25:28.780 surpass. 25:28.780 --> 25:37.880 So what the Pope has done is he has relieved all the citizens and subjects of 25:37.880 --> 25:43.520 Henry IV from their allegiance to him and no longer have to obey him as their 25:43.520 --> 25:43.840 sovereign. 25:44.960 --> 25:49.780 The first impulses of Henry's mind on hearing the denunciation were indignation 25:49.780 --> 25:50.380 and resentment. 25:51.180 --> 25:55.660 But like other inexperienced and misguided sovereigns, he had formed an erroneous 25:55.660 --> 25:57.800 calculation of his own resources. 25:57.800 --> 26:05.000 A conspiracy long prepared, of which the Dukes of Swabia and Carithia were the 26:05.000 --> 26:07.060 chiefs, began to manifest itself. 26:07.760 --> 26:11.920 Some were alienated by his vices, and others jealous of his family. 26:12.560 --> 26:16.620 The rebellious Saxons took courage, the bishops, intimidated by 26:16.620 --> 26:22.160 excommunications, withdrew from his side, and he suddenly found himself almost in 26:22.160 --> 26:25.140 salt insulated in the midst of his dominions. 26:25.910 --> 26:28.140 In this desertion he had recourse. 26:29.060 --> 26:34.960 Through panic to a miserable expedient, he crossed the Alps with the avowed 26:34.960 --> 26:39.620 determination of submitting and seeking absolution from the Pope. 26:40.580 --> 26:47.740 Gregory was at Canasa, a fortress near Regio belonging to his faithful adherent, 26:48.020 --> 26:50.520 the Countess Matilda, in A.D. 26:50.640 --> 26:51.240 1077. 26:51.240 --> 26:55.600 It was in a winter of universal severity. 26:57.300 --> 27:01.080 The Emperor was admitted, without his guards, into the outer court of the 27:01.080 --> 27:05.960 castle, and three successive days remained, from morning till evening, 27:06.220 --> 27:12.600 in a woollen shirt and with naked feet, while Gregory, shut up with the tender and 27:12.600 --> 27:17.020 loving Countess, wonder what they were doing, refused to admit him to his 27:17.020 --> 27:17.400 presence. 27:18.210 --> 27:25.140 So here is the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry IV, for three days and three nights, 27:25.360 --> 27:32.220 outside, barefoot, in the snows of Rome, as he crossed the Alps into Rome, 27:32.660 --> 27:40.220 and now he is to submit to the Pope, through this most humiliating decision of 27:40.220 --> 27:40.740 Hildebrand. 27:42.220 --> 27:43.820 We continue... 27:43.820 --> 27:48.280 At length, after continuing through three days, in the cold month of January, 27:48.700 --> 27:54.540 barefoot and fasting, the humbled Emperor was admitted into the palace, and allowed 27:54.540 --> 27:58.280 the superlative honor of kissing the Pope's toe. 27:59.220 --> 28:04.420 I repeat, of the superlative honor of kissing the Pope's toe. 28:04.420 --> 28:10.720 The haughty Pontiff condescended to grant him absolution, but only upon condition of 28:10.720 --> 28:15.700 appearing on a certain day to learn the Pope's decision, whether or not he should 28:15.700 --> 28:20.620 be restored to his kingdom, until which time the Pope forbade him to wear the 28:20.620 --> 28:23.360 ornaments or to exercise the functions of royalty. 28:24.440 --> 28:31.140 Intoxicated with his triumph, Gregory now regarded himself as lord and master of all 28:31.140 --> 28:35.540 the crowned heads of Christendom, or namely, the Roman Catholic Holy Roman 28:35.540 --> 28:40.960 Empire, as the Protestant Reformation did not exist, and the true Christians were in 28:40.960 --> 28:45.580 the Alps attempting to preserve their lives from the swords of France and 28:45.580 --> 28:51.740 Germany, and boasted in his letters that it was his duty, quote, to pull down the 28:51.740 --> 28:53.440 pride of kings, unquote. 28:54.580 --> 29:00.380 Dear listener, this is a classic example of the Pope enforcing his temporal power, 29:00.880 --> 29:05.860 and this was the beginning of this horrible enforcement that has continued to 29:05.860 --> 29:12.220 this day, and it was truly first begun by Hildebrand, or surnamed Hellbrand, 29:12.840 --> 29:15.120 whose papal name was Gregory VII. 29:15.940 --> 29:22.420 So let us remember this lesson of Gregory VII, how he humiliated Henry IV, 29:22.420 --> 29:27.160 because we are also going to understand how this has been done to American 29:27.160 --> 29:34.420 presidents, how this was done to Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, FDR... 29:57.100 --> 29:58.280 Fight the fight. 29:58.600 --> 29:59.940 We are here to equip you. 30:00.260 --> 30:01.720 Because you love the

Phelps, author of Vatican Assassins. 33:44.010 --> 33:47.670 The website is www.VaticanAssassins.org. 33:48.510 --> 33:53.030 The book I offer is Vatican Assassins, Wounded in the House of My Friends, 33:53.690 --> 33:57.590 1836 pages, over 700 pages. 33:57.590 --> 34:04.410 Pictures and portraits, many, many different sources that have been used to 34:04.410 --> 34:08.810 paint the picture of papal power through the establishment of the Jesuit order and 34:08.810 --> 34:12.650 their present control of the nations of the world, especially the assassination of 34:12.650 --> 34:18.890 JFK, and now the Jesuit order's war on terror that is not only waged against the 34:18.890 --> 34:23.050 Muslim peoples controlling, they controlling, the Jesuits controlling the 34:23.050 --> 34:26.750 Muslim leaders, but also specifically waged against the American peoples. 34:26.750 --> 34:30.810 In an attempt to destroy the last vestiges of the Protestant Reformation here. 34:31.510 --> 34:35.930 But to understand this and to appreciate what the Jesuits are up to now, 34:36.170 --> 34:41.010 we have to understand somewhat the Dark Ages, the Reformation, and the 34:41.010 --> 34:41.750 Counter-Reformation. 34:42.470 --> 34:49.450 So we will continue after we have now described Hildebrand and his submission of 34:49.450 --> 34:55.430 Henry IV, Holy Roman Emperor, we will now examine Innocent III and his submission of 34:55.430 --> 34:56.870 King John of England. 34:58.150 --> 35:02.430 I'm reading from the History of Romanism, Poetry of the World's Despot, A.D. 35:03.290 --> 35:05.110 1073-1303. 35:05.830 --> 35:10.650 I'll now read about Hildebrand, or Innocent III. 35:11.410 --> 35:16.730 And by the way, the Jesuits seek to put a Pope on the throne that will be just as 35:16.730 --> 35:21.910 vicious, just as absolute, as Innocent III, because there is a book written 35:21.910 --> 35:27.490 called The Dark Ages, the 13th century, the greatest of centuries. 35:28.050 --> 35:30.510 And that is what the Jesuits wish to restore the world to. 35:31.030 --> 35:36.810 In the 13th century, it was Innocent III who was the most notable, the most evil, 35:37.070 --> 35:40.430 the most wicked, the most heartless of the Popes. 35:41.750 --> 35:45.690 Page 279 of Dowling's History of Romanism. 35:46.480 --> 35:52.250 The most remarkable exhibition of priestly tyranny and successful papal arrogance 35:52.250 --> 35:57.810 that has ever occurred in Great Britain, and perhaps in the world, was that which 35:57.810 --> 36:04.250 signalized the pontificate of Innocent III, a Pope that carried out the policy of 36:04.250 --> 36:09.830 Hildebrand to an unprecedented extent in his treatment of the Kingdom of England 36:09.830 --> 36:15.890 and its weak and contemptible King John in the early part of the 13th century. 36:16.550 --> 36:22.650 It is just a remark by the historian of the Middle Ages that, quote, the 36:22.650 --> 36:29.230 pontificate of Innocent III may be regarded as the meridian or noonday of 36:29.230 --> 36:30.490 papal usurpation. 36:31.250 --> 36:32.470 We must repeat that. 36:33.170 --> 36:37.110 And the historian is the great Howland of the Middle Ages. 36:37.270 --> 36:38.530 It's a classic on the Middle Ages. 36:39.510 --> 36:46.110 Quote, the pontificate of Innocent III may be regarded as the meridian or noonday of 36:46.110 --> 36:47.270 papal usurpation. 36:47.410 --> 36:47.750 End quote. 36:48.870 --> 36:54.870 In each of the three leading objects which Rome had pursued, namely, independent 36:54.870 --> 37:00.230 sovereignty, supremacy over the Christian, or really, in fact, the Roman Catholic 37:00.230 --> 37:06.870 Church, and control over the princes of the earth, get that, control over the 37:06.870 --> 37:11.330 princes of the earth, it was the fortune of this pontiff to conquer. 37:12.210 --> 37:18.030 The maxims of Gregory VII, or Hildebrand, were now matured by more than a hundred 37:18.030 --> 37:23.530 years, and the right of trampling upon the necks of kings had been received, 37:23.890 --> 37:28.710 at least among churchmen, as an inherent attribute of the papacy. 37:29.930 --> 37:34.650 Quote, as the sun and the moon are placed in the firmament, unquote, says the 37:34.650 --> 37:40.730 pontiff, quote, the greater as the light of the day and the lesser of the night, 37:41.310 --> 37:47.230 thus are there two powers in the church, the pontifical, which, as having the 37:47.230 --> 37:52.410 charge of souls, is the greater, and the royal, which is the less, 37:53.050 --> 37:57.450 and to which the bodies of men only are entrusted, unquote. 37:57.870 --> 38:01.910 This is the definition of the spiritual and the temple power. 38:02.750 --> 38:05.530 It talks, and thus there are two powers in the church, the pontifical, which is 38:05.530 --> 38:09.350 having the charge of souls, that's the spiritual power, one of the keys, 38:10.470 --> 38:16.290 displayed on the papal flag, is the greater, so therefore Rome exalts the 38:16.290 --> 38:20.390 spiritual power the most, because you see, before they can get you to submit to the 38:20.390 --> 38:24.110 pope's temple power, to get you to organize your affairs in your home 38:24.110 --> 38:27.770 pursuant to what the pope wants, to make you run your country as the way 38:27.770 --> 38:31.590 the pope wants, before you submit in temple things, you must first submit in 38:31.590 --> 38:32.530 spiritual things. 38:33.370 --> 38:36.630 So if you are submitted to the spiritual power of the pope, that there is no 38:36.630 --> 38:40.990 salvation outside the Roman Catholic Church, that the pope is in fact God 38:40.990 --> 38:45.630 manifest in the flesh, that he is God on earth, that he is the vicar of Jesus 38:45.630 --> 38:51.330 Christ on earth, that if you submit to these lies, if you submit to this fakery 38:51.330 --> 38:56.510 of his spiritual power, you most assuredly will submit to his temple power. 38:57.230 --> 39:02.490 That is why it is so imperative that you have a bible in your hand and that you 39:02.490 --> 39:06.270 read it, because if you believe that book, that book of God, the word of God, 39:06.350 --> 39:12.190 the protestant bible, the AB 1611, you will in fact not submit to the temple 39:12.190 --> 39:13.050 power of the pope. 39:13.050 --> 39:19.350 Your country will never be governed by the papacy, because a bible reading people 39:19.350 --> 39:20.710 cannot be enslaved. 39:21.050 --> 39:24.310 And notice I am not talking about any particular protestant or baptist church. 39:24.570 --> 39:26.750 I am talking about individuals who read the bible. 39:27.850 --> 39:33.770 That is why the Jesuits, in control of Scottish Rite Freemasonry, in the person 39:33.770 --> 39:39.350 of that stinking, ungodly, wicked, apostate, Lutheran protestant, 39:39.350 --> 39:44.290 by the name of Earl Warren, who was the Chief Justice of the American Supreme 39:44.290 --> 39:51.270 Court in 1963, kicked out bible reading and prayer from our public schools. 39:52.230 --> 39:58.790 By doing that, he secured papal ascendancy over our politics in this country. 40:00.490 --> 40:07.250 And Earl Warren was a beloved son of the papacy, in secret, by way of his 33rd 40:07.250 --> 40:12.270 degree, Toronto Freemasonry, and thus, in taking his command from the Jesuits at 40:12.270 --> 40:17.670 Georgetown University, removed the bible from our public schools, and thus secured 40:17.670 --> 40:23.710 the Jesuits the ability to rule us spiritually, and thereby, our government, 40:23.870 --> 40:24.690 its temple power. 40:26.050 --> 40:31.170 We will go on now, to Dowling, page 280, in his The History of Romanism. 40:34.390 --> 40:40.250 If the clergy complain to him that the people, cut off from the offices of 40:40.250 --> 40:45.270 religion, refuse to pay tithes, and go to hear the secretaries, 40:45.610 --> 40:50.830 he consents that divine service shall be performed with closed doors, but denies 40:50.830 --> 40:52.310 them the rights of the sepulchre. 40:53.010 --> 40:57.270 So, in other words, the pope, at his pleasure, would place a kingdom under an 40:57.270 --> 40:57.690 interdict. 40:58.630 --> 41:03.810 An interdict is when the pope says, you no longer can perform marriages. 41:04.470 --> 41:08.670 You priests can no longer perform marriages, you can no longer bury the 41:08.670 --> 41:12.310 dead, and the commerce of the nation stops. 41:13.530 --> 41:20.190 The 1929 stock market crash was, in fact, an interdict over American 41:20.190 --> 41:26.170 commerce in this country, because three Irish Roman Catholics were the short 41:26.170 --> 41:29.210 sellers of the 1929 crash. 41:29.870 --> 41:36.330 Benjamin Strong, Tom Bragg, and the illustrious Knight of Malta, Joseph P. 41:36.510 --> 41:36.810 Kennedy. 41:37.310 --> 41:42.790 That's when they put our country under an interdict, commerce stopped, until the 41:42.790 --> 41:49.290 pope of Rome had seized our gold by the way of FDR, and then commerce was resumed 41:49.290 --> 41:52.750 with strictly paper currency and commercial instruments. 41:53.350 --> 41:58.290 Because a commercial instrument in commerce is what the papacy calls an 41:58.290 --> 41:58.970 indulgence. 42:00.590 --> 42:06.870 Paper currencies are nothing more than indulgences from the pope of Rome to 42:06.870 --> 42:08.250 engage in commerce. 42:09.010 --> 42:10.390 They are backed by nothing. 42:10.850 --> 42:12.190 They are redeemable by nothing. 42:12.190 --> 42:16.870 They are only good by word of the government, because the government says 42:16.870 --> 42:21.170 your paper dollar has done such and such amount, and the papal indulgence, 42:21.310 --> 42:25.250 that piece of paper that was sold to individuals so they could sin, 42:25.550 --> 42:29.530 and they would then present this indulgence back to a priest to cover for 42:29.530 --> 42:32.050 his sins, as a payment for his sins. 42:32.890 --> 42:34.790 All of this is commercial paper. 42:36.090 --> 42:41.770 And thus we see what the 1929 stock market crash really was, it was an interdict. 42:41.770 --> 42:46.030 So therefore the pope at his pleasure can place the kingdom under an interdict. 42:46.150 --> 42:47.850 This also means it cannot bury the dead. 42:48.670 --> 42:54.050 So when a country cannot bury its dead, it is now threatened with the bubonic 42:54.050 --> 42:54.590 plague. 42:56.110 --> 43:00.370 And so the kings and the leaders of those countries know that they better get out 43:00.370 --> 43:04.050 underneath this interdict real quick, or we are going to have disease 43:04.050 --> 43:04.810 everywhere. 43:04.810 --> 43:09.910 So the popes then, by being able to put their country under an interdict back in 43:09.910 --> 43:14.510 the dark ages here, could further their power and further the submission of the 43:14.510 --> 43:16.190 kings of the nations of Europe. 43:17.630 --> 43:18.970 So, we quote on... 43:18.970 --> 43:24.510 And instantly public worship is suspended in the Catholic Church, and the dead lie 43:24.510 --> 43:25.210 unburied. 43:25.810 --> 43:30.210 So this is a power that Innocent III wielded. 43:30.210 --> 43:38.710 Another thing that Innocent III did, is that he continued the crusades against 43:38.710 --> 43:39.210 Islam. 43:40.650 --> 43:47.350 And he therefore made lots of money in the continuance of these crusades, 43:47.710 --> 43:50.730 in making Jerusalem safe for the pilgrims, blah, blah, blah. 43:51.510 --> 43:56.710 When in fact he was depopulating the population of Europe, which was one of his 43:56.710 --> 44:03.590 intents, aggrandizing to himself more wealth in the papal treasury, while at the 44:03.590 --> 44:07.370 same time fighting his enemies, at the time Islam was the enemy of the 44:07.370 --> 44:11.230 papacy, because it called the Pope infidel and refused to give Jerusalem to the Pope, 44:11.510 --> 44:16.550 after the Pope had financed Mohammed and financed the Jihad, and financing the 44:16.550 --> 44:19.250 spread of Islam throughout North Africa and into Spain. 44:19.950 --> 44:23.830 So therefore this was Innocent III attempting to regain Jerusalem, 44:23.830 --> 44:28.730 because the devil has always wanted Jerusalem for the papacy, so that the 44:28.730 --> 44:33.510 papacy can rebuild the Hebrew temple in Jerusalem for itself. 44:35.710 --> 44:37.770 Innocent III was the master at this. 44:37.890 --> 44:38.890 This is what he wanted. 44:39.210 --> 44:42.990 Innocent III also publicly condemned the Magna Charta. 44:43.750 --> 44:48.230 After it was written, and a priest helped to write Magna Charta, his name was 44:48.230 --> 44:48.870 Stephen Langdon. 44:48.950 --> 44:51.770 Stephen Langdon was defrocked and excommunicated. 44:51.770 --> 44:56.990 How dare any priest try to give any private rights to any individuals, 44:57.210 --> 44:59.890 apart from them being privileges conferred by the papacy. 45:01.710 --> 45:06.910 So the Innocent III was against all political power, true political power, 45:07.590 --> 45:12.390 that would give any kind of liberty to any of the nation's subjects, specifically in 45:12.390 --> 45:12.610 England. 45:13.170 --> 45:18.310 And he was against any divesting of his spiritual power to any priests and 45:18.310 --> 45:18.590 bishops. 45:18.590 --> 45:21.990 He consolidated as much as he could into his own hands. 45:23.790 --> 45:24.860 Continuing on now... 45:26.950 --> 45:35.890 In a few words, it was this Innocent III who humiliated King John, who was the King 45:35.890 --> 45:36.830 of England. 45:38.150 --> 45:40.030 We read here... 45:40.030 --> 45:44.910 The consequences of this terrific sentence are thus described by Mr. Hume. 45:44.910 --> 45:50.870 The execution, says he, was calculated to strike the senses in the highest degree 45:50.870 --> 45:55.830 and to operate the irresistible force on the superstitious minds of the people. 45:56.270 --> 46:01.390 The nation was, of a sudden, deprived of all exterior exercise of its religion. 46:02.150 --> 46:04.790 The altars were despoiled by their ornaments. 46:05.230 --> 46:09.450 The crosses, the relics, the images, the statues of the saints were laid on the 46:09.450 --> 46:16.490 ground, and as if the air itself were profaned and might pollute them by its 46:16.490 --> 46:21.410 contact, the priests carefully covered them up, even from their own approach and 46:21.410 --> 46:21.950 veneration. 46:22.250 --> 46:25.310 This is when England was put under an interdict by Innocent III. 46:26.150 --> 46:29.730 The use of bells entirely ceased in all the churches. 46:30.310 --> 46:35.350 The bells themselves were removed from the steeples and laid on the ground with the 46:35.350 --> 46:36.630 other sacred utensils. 46:36.630 --> 46:41.810 Mass was celebrated with closed doors, and none but the priests were admitted to 46:41.810 --> 46:42.890 the holy institution. 46:43.610 --> 46:47.830 The laity partook of no religious rite except the communion to the dying. 46:48.390 --> 46:51.590 The dead were not interred in consecrated ground. 46:52.090 --> 46:58.510 They were thrown into ditches or buried in common fields, and their obsequies were 46:58.510 --> 47:01.210 not attended with prayers or any hallowed ceremony. 47:01.890 --> 47:07.350 Marriage was celebrated in the churchyard, and that very action in life might bear 47:07.350 --> 47:09.770 the marks of this dreadful situation. 47:10.290 --> 47:15.530 The people were prohibited the use of meat, as in Lent, or times of the highest 47:15.530 --> 47:21.030 penance, were debarred from all pleasures and entertainments, and were forbidden 47:21.030 --> 47:26.510 even to salute each other, that means say hello, or so much as to shave their beards 47:26.510 --> 47:29.450 and give any decent attention to their apparel. 47:29.450 --> 47:34.850 Every circumstance carried symptoms of the deepest distress, and of the most 47:34.850 --> 47:38.330 immediate apprehension of the divine vengeance and indignation. 47:39.010 --> 47:43.870 When this interdict had continued about two years, the Pope proceeded to step 47:43.870 --> 47:48.210 further and pronounce the awful sentence of excommunication against King John, 47:48.650 --> 47:53.350 which he commanded the bishops of London, Ely and Worcester, the most obsequious 47:53.350 --> 47:55.390 tools, to publish in England. 47:55.390 --> 48:00.750 These prelates, who then resided on the continent, sent copies of the sentence and 48:00.750 --> 48:06.690 of the Pope's commands to publish it in their churches to the bishops and clergy 48:06.690 --> 48:07.750 who remained in England. 48:08.370 --> 48:12.510 But such was their dread of the royal indignation that none of them had the 48:12.510 --> 48:14.130 courage to execute these commands. 48:14.910 --> 48:20.130 Geoffrey, Archdeacon of Norquist, one of the King's judges, when sitting on 48:20.130 --> 48:24.650 the bench in the Exchequer at Westminster, declared to the other judges that the King 48:24.650 --> 48:29.310 was excommunicated and that he did not think it lawful for him to act any longer 48:29.310 --> 48:34.290 in his name, for which declaration he was thrown into prison, where he soon died. 48:35.270 --> 48:39.550 In the year 1211, the Pope sent two legates to England, whose names were 48:39.550 --> 48:41.150 Pandolf and Durand. 48:41.650 --> 48:45.650 These legates were admitted to an audience at a parliament, which was held at 48:45.650 --> 48:50.330 Northampton, when the most violent altercation took place between them and 48:50.330 --> 48:50.770 the King. 48:51.410 --> 48:54.770 Pandolf plainly told the King, even in the face of his parliament, 48:55.370 --> 48:59.210 that he was bound to obey the Pope in temples as well as spirituals. 48:59.270 --> 49:01.290 Here we go with the temporal power and spiritual power. 49:01.750 --> 49:05.810 And when John refused to submit to the will of His Holiness without reserve, 49:05.930 --> 49:10.750 the legate, with shameless effrontery, published a sentence of excommunication 49:10.750 --> 49:15.690 against him with a loud voice, absolving all his subjects from their 49:15.690 --> 49:20.550 oaths of allegiance, degraded him from his royal dignity, and declared that neither 49:20.550 --> 49:23.910 he nor any of his posterity should ever reign in England. 49:24.970 --> 49:28.950 This was certainly carrying clerical indolence to the height of extravagance, 49:29.210 --> 49:33.290 but in those unhappy times the meanest agents of the Pope insulted the greatest 49:33.290 --> 49:35.250 princes with impunity. 49:36.290 --> 49:37.630 Well, what happened? 49:38.290 --> 49:43.170 The sentence of disposition against King John and excommunication against all who 49:43.170 --> 49:47.490 should obey him or have any connection with him, when these sentences were known 49:47.490 --> 49:51.690 in England, they began to excite the superstitious fears of some of the barons 49:51.690 --> 49:55.490 who were at the same time much dissatisfied with the prince for his 49:55.490 --> 49:57.730 impotent, illegal, and oppressive government. 49:58.390 --> 50:03.410 John, having received intimations of this from various quarters, became not a little 50:03.410 --> 50:06.650 alarmed and began to stagger at his resolution. 50:07.810 --> 50:11.270 To render the sentence of deposition against King John effectual, the Pope 50:11.270 --> 50:16.950 appointed Philip, King of France, to put it in execution and promised him 50:16.950 --> 50:22.970 the pardon of all his sins and the kingdom of England for his reward, a temptation 50:22.970 --> 50:26.570 which that prince had neither the wisdom nor virtue to resist. 50:27.850 --> 50:32.650 Blinded by his ambition, he commanded a large army to assemble at Ruden and 50:32.650 --> 50:37.970 prepared a fleet of seventeen hundred vessels to convey them to England. 50:37.970 --> 50:42.470 All these preparations, however, only served to promote the purposes of the 50:42.470 --> 50:47.490 court of Rome, for as soon as John was sufficiently intimidated by his dread of 50:47.490 --> 50:54.070 the French army and his suspicions of his own subjects to induce him to make an 50:54.070 --> 50:58.730 ignominious surrender of his crown and kingdom to the Pope, the French king was 50:58.730 --> 51:03.210 obliged to abandon his enterprise against England to avoid the thunders of the 51:03.210 --> 51:06.690 church, the dreadful effects of which he had before his eyes. 51:06.690 --> 51:14.650 Now this, dear listener, is an example of the Pope using another nation against a 51:14.650 --> 51:16.370 nation he chooses to punish. 51:17.570 --> 51:22.050 This was done by Bill Clinton when he ordered the bombing of Serbia. 51:22.830 --> 51:27.630 With seventy-two days of bombing of the Serbs, and after which the Serbs 51:27.630 --> 51:30.110 submitted, the bombing was called off. 51:30.110 --> 51:37.230 This is classic papal foreign policy carried out by the United States of 51:37.230 --> 51:41.110 America, which I call in my book, the Pope's Holy Roman Fourteenth Amendment 51:41.110 --> 51:44.530 corporate fascist socialist communist American empire. 51:46.250 --> 51:50.350 Continuing, the trembling John now implored the protection of Rome, 51:50.790 --> 51:52.610 whatever submission it might cost. 51:53.190 --> 51:57.270 The legate assured him that the supreme pontiff would require nothing which was 51:57.270 --> 52:02.170 not absolutely necessary either to the honor of the church or the safety of the 52:02.170 --> 52:02.810 king himself. 52:03.550 --> 52:08.110 He proposed, therefore, to withdraw the excommunication immediately, on condition 52:08.110 --> 52:13.550 of John's promising to receive Langdon as archbishop, whose promotion to the primacy 52:13.550 --> 52:19.790 had been the occasion of all the spurious contest, and all the bishops and clergy 52:19.790 --> 52:24.210 who acknowledged him, and to indemnify them for all the damage they had 52:24.210 --> 52:24.710 sustained. 52:24.710 --> 52:31.750 To all this the king of England consented, but the consummation of ignominy was yet 52:31.750 --> 52:32.150 to come. 52:32.930 --> 52:37.050 Under the specious pretext of securing England from the attacks by Philip, 52:37.630 --> 52:42.770 it was suggested to John to surrender his kingdoms to the Pope as to a lord 52:42.770 --> 52:48.930 paramount, to swear fealty to him, to receive the British islands back as 52:48.930 --> 52:55.710 fiefs of the Holy Sea, and to pay an annual tribute for them of 700 marks of 52:55.710 --> 52:58.650 silver for England and 300 for Ireland. 52:59.950 --> 53:06.370 On the 12th of May, 1213, John performed all the degrading ceremonials of 53:06.370 --> 53:08.710 resignation, homage and fealty. 53:09.110 --> 53:13.790 On his knees he humbly offered his kingdoms to the Pope, and put them into 53:13.790 --> 53:18.150 the hands of the legate, Pandolf, who retained them for five days. 53:18.150 --> 53:23.870 He offered his tribute, which the legate threw down and trampled on, but afterwards 53:23.870 --> 53:25.870 condescended to gather up again. 53:26.790 --> 53:33.650 So what we have here is the submission of King John of England to the Pope of Rome. 53:34.790 --> 53:41.430 Absolutely disgusting, because in the Bible, in a subgotted institute of 53:41.430 --> 53:46.950 sovereign nations, and sovereign nations are to be governed by the people of that 53:46.950 --> 53:52.050 nation according to their desires, and they are not to be governed by the 53:52.050 --> 53:57.470 papacy, by a foreign sovereign, thereby overthrowing the sovereignty of 53:57.470 --> 53:58.010 that country. 53:58.610 --> 54:02.410 A true Bible-believing Christian man is a patriot. 54:02.410 --> 54:05.430 He sustains his sovereign nation. 54:05.970 --> 54:11.210 He has an allegiance to his race, his language, his culture, and the 54:11.210 --> 54:16.050 geographic boundaries of his nation, and he will die to sustain it. 54:16.390 --> 54:17.530 That is a patriot. 54:18.290 --> 54:21.490 This kind of patriotism, Rome overthrows. 54:21.950 --> 54:24.570 This kind of nationalism, Rome overthrows. 54:25.330 --> 54:28.650 And it overthrows it pursuant to canon law. 54:29.890 --> 54:34.630 In concluding here, quote, In the engraving, which is a representation of 54:34.630 --> 54:38.830 his scene, the humbled monarch is seen on his knees before the Pope's legate, 54:39.270 --> 54:43.530 who has just received the crown from the hands of the king, and is trampling upon 54:43.530 --> 54:47.770 the gold with the gift of which John accompanied his submission. 54:48.630 --> 54:52.570 Some of the barons of England are looking on, grieved and indignant alike, 54:52.710 --> 54:57.410 at the degradation of their weak-minded sovereign and the haughty and contemptuous 54:57.410 --> 54:58.090 insolence. 54:58.090 --> 55:00.410 Insolence of the triumphal priest. 55:01.570 --> 55:07.730 Dear listener, this is exactly what Queen Elizabeth II does when she visits the 55:07.730 --> 55:08.030 Pope. 55:08.670 --> 55:12.810 In black, has an audience with him, kisses his ring. 55:13.470 --> 55:18.830 She puts her kingdom, the United Kingdom, at the feet of the Pope, and then she 55:18.830 --> 55:22.010 governs it according to the way the Pope wants her to do it. 55:22.390 --> 55:25.490 This is England today, and this is America today. 55:26.070 --> 55:31.810 The point of this all being is that the temporal power of the Pope never changes, 55:32.230 --> 55:34.090 because his spiritual power never changes. 55:36.840 --> 55:41.260 If you believe that there is no salvation outside the Roman Catholic institution, 55:42.280 --> 55:47.040 then the logical conclusion of that belief is that there is only one way to govern 55:47.040 --> 55:50.120 your country, and that is pursuant to the wishes of the Pope. 55:50.840 --> 55:54.540 And that is exactly what George Bush has said. 55:54.540 --> 56:01.400 He has said, and I quote it in my book, that he desires to put in place the 56:01.400 --> 56:03.920 teachings of Pope John Paul II. 56:04.560 --> 56:06.260 And that is exactly what he has done. 56:06.900 --> 56:12.580 He has started a crusade, a papal crusade, and he is overthrowing the U.S. 56:12.820 --> 56:18.260 Constitution, which is a Protestant document, and restoring Jesuit absolutism 56:18.260 --> 56:23.220 over North America, as existed in Mexico and in Europe. 56:23.220 --> 56:28.680 So, the doctrines of Rome never change, and when presidents serve Rome, 56:28.920 --> 56:33.160 their foreign policies and domestic policies can be traced back to the Dark 56:33.160 --> 56:33.480 Ages. 56:34.520 --> 56:40.600 We now shall go to what we call the Protestant Reformation. 56:42.000 --> 56:49.940 The Protestant Reformation was the light, the Lord's beginning of the beating down 56:49.940 --> 56:51.400 of the Pope's temporal power. 56:51.400 --> 56:56.020 And I will read a paragraph here, written by R.W. 56:56.100 --> 57:00.700 Thompson, in his The Footprints of the Jesuits, written in 1894. 57:01.720 --> 57:05.740 And he was the Secretary of the American Navy in the 1870s. 57:06.200 --> 57:11.480 And he writes, quote, in the preface, In the times before the Reformation, 57:12.240 --> 57:17.300 the temporal affairs of governments were required to conform to the commands of the 57:17.300 --> 57:20.240 ecclesiastical authority, that is the Pope. 57:20.240 --> 57:25.780 And it was held to be a necessary and essential part of religion, Romanism, 57:26.200 --> 57:30.380 that this union should be continued, no matter what might be the degree of 57:30.380 --> 57:32.700 popular ignorance and humiliation. 57:33.840 --> 57:40.460 Dear listeners, the Pope does not believe in the separation of a legitimate 57:40.460 --> 57:44.360 government and the power of the Church, of the papacy. 57:45.020 --> 57:49.800 There is no such thing that exists under the doctrines of Rome. 57:50.580 --> 57:55.780 The First Amendment, as written by the Baptist Calvinist, James Madison, 57:56.480 --> 58:02.100 in the separation of a religious organization from a political government, 58:03.120 --> 58:05.840 is a maxim of Baptist doctrine. 58:05.980 --> 58:07.920 In fact, that is a Baptist distinctive. 58:09.160 --> 58:11.060 So, Rome hates that. 58:11.340 --> 58:12.840 Rome hates the First Amendment. 58:12.840 --> 58:18.540 And so, Rome has very cleverly united the papacy with the American government 58:18.540 --> 58:23.100 through a trusted third party, which is the Council on Foreign Relations. 58:24.640 --> 58:31.740 So, we shall now begin with the Reformation as Luther meets Kate Kajetan. 59:07.500 --> 59:11.740 If you'd like to get a copy of this program, there are a few ways that we can 59:11.740 --> 59:12.180 help you. 59:12.180 -->

01:00:37.620 Okay, this is Eric John Phelps. 01:00:38.080 --> 01:00:43.280 Welcome back to this series that we are doing, Greg Szymanski and I. 01:00:43.280 --> 01:00:47.500 And I'm the author of Vatican Assassins, which is in the house of my friends. 01:00:48.200 --> 01:00:53.560 And we are now beginning to move out of the Dark Ages into the Protestant 01:00:53.560 --> 01:00:54.240 Reformation. 01:00:55.640 --> 01:00:57.440 A little bit of my own words... 01:00:57.440 --> 01:01:00.620 The Dark Ages was an age of immorality. 01:01:01.440 --> 01:01:03.400 The priests were very evil. 01:01:04.200 --> 01:01:07.160 They had violated the people for centuries. 01:01:08.020 --> 01:01:14.200 They knew that the priests were using the nuns for their own sexual proclivities. 01:01:15.420 --> 01:01:21.460 They knew that the priests were manipulating the leaders of the towns and 01:01:21.460 --> 01:01:24.280 cities and countries for their own benefit against the people. 01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:26.160 There was no middle class. 01:01:26.700 --> 01:01:28.360 Everybody was poverty stricken. 01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:33.900 All there was was the poor majority people and the super rich priests and nobles. 01:01:34.520 --> 01:01:38.760 And the nobles were at the beck and call of the priests because if they disobeyed, 01:01:38.820 --> 01:01:43.260 they either got the King John treatment or the Henry IV treatment as we just 01:01:43.260 --> 01:01:43.700 reviewed. 01:01:44.560 --> 01:01:50.020 And so when they were teaching that there is no salvation outside the Roman Catholic 01:01:50.020 --> 01:01:54.380 institution, that every human creature has to be subject to the Pope, they were 01:01:54.380 --> 01:01:59.660 enslaved to a work salvation religion that they had to do thus and thus and thus, 01:01:59.700 --> 01:02:01.700 go to confession, you name it. 01:02:01.700 --> 01:02:04.000 And if they did all these things, they might make it. 01:02:04.420 --> 01:02:09.540 And so they became slaves to this organized religion of the devil called the 01:02:09.540 --> 01:02:15.000 Papacy, Roman Catholicism, with all of its canon law and doctrines of the Popes. 01:02:16.100 --> 01:02:20.100 Well, what happened, God in his providence, and also by the way, 01:02:20.140 --> 01:02:21.770 the Papacy had a raging inquisition. 01:02:22.900 --> 01:02:26.820 They would arrest you at night, just as the NKVD would. 01:02:26.820 --> 01:02:33.200 And take you off into prison and torture you, and torture a confession out of an 01:02:33.200 --> 01:02:38.220 innocent person, after which you would be handed over to the secular arm to be 01:02:38.220 --> 01:02:38.640 burned. 01:02:40.820 --> 01:02:47.100 Stalin's NKVD functioned exactly, exactly like the Spanish and Roman 01:02:47.100 --> 01:02:47.880 inquisitions. 01:02:48.580 --> 01:02:53.780 In fact, in the Lubyanka, the Jesuits who ran the Lubyanka had brought in books from 01:02:53.780 --> 01:02:58.460 the inquisitional libraries of the countries of Europe, so they could carry 01:02:58.460 --> 01:03:02.100 out the same kind of tortures on the Russian people. 01:03:02.860 --> 01:03:08.640 So what we have is a continuation of the Papacy in dark ages, underground today, 01:03:09.100 --> 01:03:13.660 but back at this time it was open, and the inquisition was feared by all, 01:03:13.800 --> 01:03:14.700 rich and poor. 01:03:15.040 --> 01:03:20.120 All you had to do was be accused of heresy, and you could be arrested at night 01:03:20.120 --> 01:03:21.420 with no witness. 01:03:21.420 --> 01:03:26.180 And this is why we have our 4th and 5th Amendment, to prevent an inquisition from 01:03:26.180 --> 01:03:27.820 happening again in this country. 01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:34.260 So we are now going to review what happened, how God broke the power of the 01:03:34.260 --> 01:03:39.500 Papacy in Europe, and He did it by getting His word into the language of the people. 01:03:40.600 --> 01:03:45.240 The light of the Reformation, the new day star of the Reformation was Wycliffe, 01:03:45.620 --> 01:03:49.500 when he began to put the old Latin Bible in the language of the English people. 01:03:49.500 --> 01:03:55.700 But the Lord used Erasmus, put together the Greek Testament, and then Erasmus' 01:03:55.860 --> 01:03:57.460 greatest student was William Tyndall. 01:03:57.900 --> 01:04:04.060 William Tyndall, the father of the English Bible, was the man who did most of the 01:04:04.060 --> 01:04:09.280 translation, and it was his works that were consulted later on by those who wrote 01:04:09.280 --> 01:04:11.200 the Geneva Bible and the A.V. 01:04:11.280 --> 01:04:11.880 1611. 01:04:12.520 --> 01:04:17.740 And it was this William Tyndall who was the one who got the English Bible into the 01:04:17.740 --> 01:04:22.780 Anglican Church, so the people once could read the Bible for themselves, 01:04:23.000 --> 01:04:25.540 and they needed no priest to tell them what it meant. 01:04:26.380 --> 01:04:31.200 And this was based upon a particular passage of Scripture in 1 Timothy 2, 01:04:31.400 --> 01:04:32.000 verse 5. 01:04:32.260 --> 01:04:36.020 There was one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. 01:04:36.720 --> 01:04:41.340 So as they began to read the Bible, and they heard it in their own language, 01:04:41.940 --> 01:04:44.840 why then they realized they didn't need the priests anymore. 01:04:45.500 --> 01:04:47.220 That they didn't need the Pope anymore. 01:04:47.220 --> 01:04:50.220 That there was no need for work salvation anymore. 01:04:50.460 --> 01:04:56.060 Because Romans 1.17 became paramount in their minds, and that was the verse of 01:04:56.060 --> 01:04:56.700 Martin Luther. 01:04:57.100 --> 01:04:57.840 And what is that? 01:04:58.220 --> 01:05:00.860 The just shall live by faith. 01:05:01.280 --> 01:05:07.100 In other words, you get justified before God by faith alone, and not any works that 01:05:07.100 --> 01:05:08.220 you can possibly do. 01:05:08.880 --> 01:05:11.000 So you are justified by faith alone. 01:05:11.000 --> 01:05:16.080 And it was this revelation that caused Luther to come to the understanding that 01:05:16.080 --> 01:05:21.860 he needed to be saved by the grace of God, and salvation was a gift not to be earned 01:05:21.860 --> 01:05:24.580 by the edicts and decrees of the Pope. 01:05:25.300 --> 01:05:30.960 So as Luther then began to preach the great doctrines of the Bible, and he began 01:05:30.960 --> 01:05:36.460 to expose the great heresies of Rome, he now became the target for annihilation. 01:05:36.460 --> 01:05:43.660 And now we shall view this wonderful and great life of Germany's greatest preacher, 01:05:44.260 --> 01:05:44.920 Martin Luther. 01:05:45.360 --> 01:05:51.160 And apart from this German, we would have no political freedom in the earth today. 01:05:51.420 --> 01:05:57.820 It all springs from Martin Luther and his getting the Bible into the native language 01:05:57.820 --> 01:06:02.580 of the German people, so that people could understand what God expected of them, 01:06:02.580 --> 01:06:07.840 what God had to say about his son, and thus bringing repentance and faith in 01:06:07.840 --> 01:06:08.160 Christ. 01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:15.580 So we now go on page 452 of Dowling's The History of Romanism, under Popery on a 01:06:15.580 --> 01:06:16.600 Tottering Throne. 01:06:19.140 --> 01:06:21.980 We now begin section 85. 01:06:24.060 --> 01:06:29.920 Before this letter of the Pope had reached Germany, and while Luther was still 01:06:29.920 --> 01:06:34.220 fearing that he should be obliged to appear at Rome, a fortunate circumstance 01:06:34.220 --> 01:06:35.640 occurred to comfort his heart. 01:06:36.560 --> 01:06:41.640 He needed a friend into whose bosom he could pour out his sorrows, and whose 01:06:41.640 --> 01:06:44.900 faithful love should comfort him in his hours of dejection. 01:06:45.680 --> 01:06:51.560 God sent him such a friend in Melanchthon, who at the early age of 21 arrived at 01:06:51.560 --> 01:06:56.600 Wittenberg to enter upon the duties of his professorship on the 25th of August, 01:06:57.040 --> 01:07:02.300 just two days after the Pope had signed the brief institutions to Cardinal Cajetan 01:07:02.300 --> 01:07:05.000 in the letter to the Elector of Saxony. 01:07:06.220 --> 01:07:11.920 Which, by the way, that letter called Luther a child of iniquity and a despiser 01:07:11.920 --> 01:07:12.640 of God. 01:07:13.780 --> 01:07:18.080 The order of Luther's appearance at Augsburg before the Cardinal Legate at 01:07:18.080 --> 01:07:18.860 length arrived. 01:07:19.480 --> 01:07:23.880 It was now with one of the princes of the Roman Church that Luther had to do. 01:07:24.440 --> 01:07:27.220 All his friends besought him not to set out. 01:07:27.980 --> 01:07:32.700 They feared that a snare might be laid for him on his journey, or a design formed 01:07:32.700 --> 01:07:33.580 against his life. 01:07:34.480 --> 01:07:38.880 Some set about finding a place of concealment for him, and others from 01:07:38.880 --> 01:07:41.760 different quarters gave him the most alarming information. 01:07:42.660 --> 01:07:46.460 Count Albert of Mansfield sent him a message to abstain from setting out, 01:07:46.860 --> 01:07:51.360 because some great nobles had bound themselves by an oath to seize and 01:07:51.360 --> 01:07:53.160 strangle or drown him. 01:07:54.010 --> 01:07:56.280 But nothing could shake his resolution. 01:07:57.280 --> 01:08:02.140 Everywhere in the history of Luther, and of the Reformation, do we find 01:08:02.140 --> 01:08:07.560 ourselves in the presence of that intrepid spirit, that elevated morality, 01:08:08.220 --> 01:08:14.100 that boundless charity, which the first establishment of biblical Christianity had 01:08:14.100 --> 01:08:15.520 exhibited to the world. 01:08:15.920 --> 01:08:21.120 Quote, I am like Jeremiah, said Luther, at the moment we are speaking of, 01:08:21.120 --> 01:08:23.640 a man of strife and contention. 01:08:24.300 --> 01:08:28.280 But the more they increase their threatenings, the more they multiply my 01:08:28.280 --> 01:08:28.700 joy. 01:08:29.360 --> 01:08:31.820 My wife and children are well provided for. 01:08:32.280 --> 01:08:35.480 My lands and houses and all my goods are safe. 01:08:36.000 --> 01:08:40.520 They have already torn to pieces my honor and my good name. 01:08:41.060 --> 01:08:43.400 All I have left is my wretched body. 01:08:43.980 --> 01:08:44.980 Let them have it. 01:08:45.520 --> 01:08:48.160 They will then shorten my life but a few hours. 01:08:48.160 --> 01:08:52.020 But as to my soul, they shall not have that. 01:08:52.720 --> 01:08:57.900 He who resolves to bear the word of Christ to the world must expect death at every 01:08:57.900 --> 01:08:58.320 hour. 01:08:59.480 --> 01:09:05.580 In accordance with this self-sacrificing spirit, Luther set out on foot on his 01:09:05.580 --> 01:09:10.740 perilous journey to Augsburg, accompanied by two faithful friends, Link and Leonard, 01:09:11.300 --> 01:09:15.540 and arrived at the monastery of the Augustins at that city on the 7th of 01:09:15.540 --> 01:09:16.000 October. 01:09:16.000 --> 01:09:22.140 In the following day, a crafty Italian courtier named Sierra Longa paid Luther a 01:09:22.140 --> 01:09:26.540 visit to persuade the reformer to submission or to prepare him for his 01:09:26.540 --> 01:09:28.200 interview with the cardinal legate. 01:09:28.840 --> 01:09:32.840 The instructions given to Luther by this courtier of Rome are curious. 01:09:33.540 --> 01:09:38.700 Quote, Remember, said he, that you are to appear before the prince of the church. 01:09:39.500 --> 01:09:44.720 I will myself conduct you to him, but first let me tell you how you must 01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:45.760 appear in his presence. 01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:51.180 When you enter the room where he is sitting, you must prostrate yourself with 01:09:51.180 --> 01:09:52.460 your face to the ground. 01:09:52.920 --> 01:09:57.900 When he tells you to rise, you must kneel before him, and you must not stand erect 01:09:57.900 --> 01:09:59.540 till he orders you so to do. 01:09:59.940 --> 01:10:00.200 Unquote. 01:10:01.280 --> 01:10:04.260 Luther had neglected to provide himself with a safe conduct. 01:10:05.140 --> 01:10:09.520 His friends advised him by no means to appear before the legate without one, 01:10:10.000 --> 01:10:12.380 as he would then be at the mercy of Cajetan. 01:10:13.020 --> 01:10:17.580 But should he obtain such a document, the legate could not imprison or harm him 01:10:17.580 --> 01:10:21.700 without persuading the emperor Maximilian to violate his faith. 01:10:22.660 --> 01:10:26.860 They took upon themselves the task of obtaining the necessary safe conduct from 01:10:26.860 --> 01:10:27.300 the emperor. 01:10:28.240 --> 01:10:32.680 Cajetan's plan was, no doubt, to compel Luther, if possible, to retract. 01:10:33.380 --> 01:10:37.840 And if he failed in that, to secure his person and to have him conveyed to Rome, 01:10:38.180 --> 01:10:41.620 where he would doubtless have shared the fate of Hus and Jerome. 01:10:41.620 --> 01:10:45.960 By the way, who were burned at the stake, and whose safe conduct was violated. 01:10:47.100 --> 01:10:51.900 Hence, he was in hopes that Luther would apply for no safe conduct, but entrust 01:10:51.900 --> 01:10:53.780 himself entirely to his mercy. 01:10:54.460 --> 01:10:59.120 A safe conduct is like a pass, a passport, to pass through the Holy Roman 01:10:59.120 --> 01:11:01.840 Empire with the protection of the emperor. 01:11:02.920 --> 01:11:05.020 And this, by the way, Maximilian would do. 01:11:06.440 --> 01:11:10.760 Cirolonga offered him to accompany Luther before the legate, but the reformer told 01:11:10.760 --> 01:11:14.640 him of the advice of his Augsburg friends to procure a safe conduct. 01:11:15.640 --> 01:11:20.080 Quote, Beware of asking anything of the sort, unquote, required Cirolonga quickly. 01:11:20.740 --> 01:11:22.040 You have no need of it whatsoever. 01:11:23.140 --> 01:11:27.120 The legate is well disposed toward you, and quite ready to end the affair 01:11:27.120 --> 01:11:27.680 amicably. 01:11:28.400 --> 01:11:32.720 If you ask for a safe conduct, you will spoil all, unquote. 01:11:33.920 --> 01:11:38.240 Quote, My gracious lord, the elector of Saxony, unquote, required Luther, 01:11:38.240 --> 01:11:41.340 who had recommended me to several honorable men in his town. 01:11:41.840 --> 01:11:44.500 They advised me not to venture without a safe conduct. 01:11:45.080 --> 01:11:46.680 I ought to follow their advice. 01:11:47.760 --> 01:11:52.280 You see how the man of God follows the advice of his friends? 01:11:53.400 --> 01:11:57.460 Were I to neglect it, and anything should befall me, they would write to the 01:11:57.460 --> 01:12:00.380 elector, my master, that I would not hearken to them. 01:12:01.160 --> 01:12:05.320 Luther persisted in his resolution, and Cirolonga was obliged to return to his 01:12:05.320 --> 01:12:11.640 employer and report to him the failure of his mission at the very moment when he 01:12:11.640 --> 01:12:13.740 fancied it would be crowned with success. 01:12:15.020 --> 01:12:19.120 The agents of the cardinal, who was exceedingly desirous to get Luther into 01:12:19.120 --> 01:12:23.340 his power without a safe conduct, soon renewed their importunities. 01:12:24.240 --> 01:12:27.620 Quote, The cardinal, said they, sends you assurance of his grace and 01:12:27.620 --> 01:12:28.000 favor. 01:12:28.380 --> 01:12:29.460 Why are you so afraid? 01:12:30.280 --> 01:12:34.220 And they endeavored by every possible argument to persuade him to wait upon the 01:12:34.220 --> 01:12:34.480 legate. 01:12:35.040 --> 01:12:39.780 He is so gracious, and he is like a father, said one of these emissaries. 01:12:40.280 --> 01:12:43.900 But another, going close up to him, whispered, Do not believe what they say. 01:12:44.240 --> 01:12:46.520 There is no dependence to be placed upon his words. 01:12:47.440 --> 01:12:49.100 Luther persisted in his resolution. 01:12:49.620 --> 01:12:54.760 On the morning of Monday, the 16th of October, 1518, Cirolonga again renewed his 01:12:54.760 --> 01:12:55.380 persuasions. 01:12:55.880 --> 01:13:00.040 The courtier had made it a point of honor to succeed in his negotiations. 01:13:00.040 --> 01:13:05.260 The moment he entered in, asked in Latin, Why do you not go to the cardinal? 01:13:05.720 --> 01:13:08.300 He is expecting you in the most indolent frame of mind. 01:13:08.760 --> 01:13:11.400 With him, the whole question is summed up in six letters. 01:13:11.920 --> 01:13:12.480 Revoca! 01:13:13.120 --> 01:13:13.680 Retract! 01:13:14.140 --> 01:13:15.220 Come then with me. 01:13:15.500 --> 01:13:16.460 You have nothing to fear. 01:13:17.840 --> 01:13:21.740 Luther thought with himself that those were six very important letters. 01:13:22.380 --> 01:13:26.760 But, without further discussion, he replied, As soon as I have received the 01:13:26.760 --> 01:13:27.920 safe conduct, I will appear. 01:13:28.780 --> 01:13:30.700 Cirolonga lost his temper at these words. 01:13:31.080 --> 01:13:31.780 He persisted. 01:13:32.200 --> 01:13:35.160 He brought forward additional reasons for compliance. 01:13:35.500 --> 01:13:36.460 But Luther was immovable. 01:13:37.180 --> 01:13:41.660 The Italian courtier, still irritated, exclaimed, You imagine, no doubt, 01:13:41.720 --> 01:13:45.800 that the elector will take up arms in your favor, and risk for your sake the loss of 01:13:45.800 --> 01:13:47.680 the dominions he inherits from his ancestors? 01:13:48.360 --> 01:13:50.220 God forbid, replied Luther. 01:13:50.640 --> 01:13:54.860 When all forsake you, ask the Italian, where will you then take refuge? 01:13:55.640 --> 01:14:01.100 Where, said Luther, smiling and looking upwards with the eye of faith? 01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:03.060 Under heaven! 01:14:04.640 --> 01:14:08.500 Cirolonga was struck dumb by this sublime and unexpected reply. 01:14:09.140 --> 01:14:13.280 He soon left the house, leaped into his saddle, and visited Luther no more. 01:14:14.500 --> 01:14:17.920 Having soon after obtained his safe conduct, Luther appeared before the 01:14:17.920 --> 01:14:18.220 legate. 01:14:18.780 --> 01:14:22.080 On entering the room where the cardinal was waiting for him, Luther found him 01:14:22.080 --> 01:14:25.280 accompanied by the apostolic nuncio in Cirolonga. 01:14:26.120 --> 01:14:28.700 His reception was cool, but civil. 01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:31.380 And, according to the Roman etiquette, 01:14:34.410 --> 01:14:38.730 Luther, following the instructions of Cirolonga, prostrated himself before the 01:14:38.730 --> 01:14:39.050 cardinal. 01:14:39.870 --> 01:14:42.110 When the latter told him to rise, he knelt. 01:14:42.710 --> 01:14:45.270 And when the command was repeated, he stood erect. 01:14:46.070 --> 01:14:49.810 Several of the most distinguished Italians of the legate's household entered the room 01:14:49.810 --> 01:14:54.970 in order to be present at the interview, impatient to see the German monk humble 01:14:54.970 --> 01:14:56.730 himself before the Pope's representative. 01:14:57.830 --> 01:14:59.050 The legate was silent. 01:14:59.570 --> 01:15:03.190 He expected, said the contemporary, that Luther would begin his recantation. 01:15:04.110 --> 01:15:07.470 But Luther waited reverently for the Roman prince to address him. 01:15:08.750 --> 01:15:12.690 Finding, however, that he did not open his lips, he understood his silence as an 01:15:12.690 --> 01:15:20.430 invitation to open the business, and spoke as follows, quote, Most worthy 01:15:20.430 --> 01:15:26.170 Father, upon the summons of His Holiness the Pope, and at the desire of my gracious 01:15:26.170 --> 01:15:31.690 Lord, the Elector of Saxony, I appear before you as the humble, obedient son of 01:15:31.690 --> 01:15:36.090 the Holy Christian Church, Holy Catholic Church, and I acknowledge that it was I 01:15:36.090 --> 01:15:40.330 who published the propositions and theses that are the subject of inquiry. 01:15:40.810 --> 01:15:41.770 95 theses. 01:15:42.790 --> 01:15:46.450 I am ready to listen with all submission to the charges brought against me, 01:15:47.010 --> 01:15:51.590 and, if I am an error, to be instructed in the truth, unquote. 01:15:52.410 --> 01:15:56.470 The Cardinal, who had determined to assume the tone of a kind and compassionate 01:15:56.470 --> 01:16:00.050 father towards an erring child, answered in the most friendly manner, 01:16:00.550 --> 01:16:04.510 commended Luther's humility, and expressed the joy he felt on beholding it, 01:16:04.550 --> 01:16:09.990 saying, quote, My dear son, you have filled all Germany with commotion by your 01:16:09.990 --> 01:16:11.670 dispute concerning indulgences. 01:16:12.710 --> 01:16:17.070 I hear that you are a doctor, well skilled in the Scriptures, and that you have many 01:16:17.070 --> 01:16:17.610 followers. 01:16:18.130 --> 01:16:23.070 If, therefore, you wish to be a member of the Church, and to have in the Pope a most 01:16:23.070 --> 01:16:25.830 gracious Lord, listen to me. 01:16:26.950 --> 01:16:34.710 After this exordium, the legate did not hesitate to tell him all that he expected 01:16:34.710 --> 01:16:37.510 of him, so confident was he of his submission. 01:16:38.250 --> 01:16:42.750 Here, said he, are three articles which, acting under the direction of our most 01:16:42.750 --> 01:16:46.270 Holy Father, Pope Leo X, I am to propose to you. 01:16:46.730 --> 01:16:49.210 First, you must return to your duty. 01:16:50.110 --> 01:16:54.430 You must acknowledge your faults, and retract your errors, your propositions 01:16:54.430 --> 01:16:54.970 and sermons. 01:16:55.850 --> 01:17:00.870 Secondly, you must promise to abstain for the future from propagating your opinions. 01:17:01.650 --> 01:17:06.610 And thirdly, you must engage to be more discreet, and avoid everything that may 01:17:06.610 --> 01:17:08.030 grieve or disturb the Church. 01:17:09.310 --> 01:17:13.650 Most worthy Father, replied Luther, I request to be permitted to see the 01:17:13.650 --> 01:17:17.790 Pope's brief, by virtue of which you have received full power to negotiate this 01:17:17.790 --> 01:17:18.130 affair. 01:17:20.130 --> 01:17:24.770 Sri Lanka and the rest of the Italians of the Cardinal's train were struck with 01:17:24.770 --> 01:17:28.390 astonishment at such a demand, and although the German monk had already 01:17:28.390 --> 01:17:32.330 appeared to them a strange phenomenon, they were completely disconcerted at so 01:17:32.330 --> 01:17:33.130 bold a speech. 01:17:33.990 --> 01:17:37.690 Christians familiar with the principles of justice desire to see them adhere to, 01:17:37.930 --> 01:17:41.250 in proceedings against others or themselves, but those who are accustomed 01:17:41.250 --> 01:17:44.830 to act according to their own will, are much surprised when required to 01:17:44.830 --> 01:17:47.510 proceed regularly and agreeably to a form of law. 01:17:48.110 --> 01:17:52.710 Quote, you demand, my son, replied Cajetan, cannot be complied with. 01:17:53.390 --> 01:17:57.430 You have to acknowledge your errors, to be careful for the future of what you 01:17:57.430 --> 01:18:02.830 teach, and not to return to your vomit, so that you may rest with care and 01:18:02.830 --> 01:18:07.450 anxiety, and then, acting by the command and on the authority of our most Holy 01:18:07.450 --> 01:18:09.930 Father, the Pope, I will adjust the whole affair. 01:18:10.870 --> 01:18:13.630 Deign then, said Luther, to inform me wherein I have erred. 01:18:15.910 --> 01:18:17.040 Now listen to this... 01:18:18.030 --> 01:18:22.230 At this request, the Italian courtiers, who had expected to see the poor German 01:18:22.230 --> 01:18:26.610 fall upon his knees and implore mercy, were still more astonished than before. 01:18:26.610 --> 01:18:31.170 Not one of them would have condescended to answer so impertinent a question. 01:18:31.750 --> 01:18:36.210 But the legate, who thought it scarcely generous to crush this feeble monk by the 01:18:36.210 --> 01:18:39.990 weight of all his authority, and trust him wherever to his own learning for obtaining 01:18:39.990 --> 01:18:43.850 an easy victory, consented to tell Luther what he was accused of, and said, 01:18:43.950 --> 01:18:48.930 quote, My beloved son, there are two propositions put forward by you, 01:18:49.190 --> 01:18:51.530 which you must, before all, retract. 01:18:52.150 --> 01:18:57.810 First, the treasure of indulgences does not consist of the merits and sufferings 01:18:57.810 --> 01:18:59.230 of our Lord Jesus Christ. 01:18:59.790 --> 01:19:04.750 Secondly, the man who receives the Holy Sacrament must have faith in the grace 01:19:04.750 --> 01:19:05.550 offered to him. 01:19:06.450 --> 01:19:08.050 Luther is to retract both these things. 01:19:08.990 --> 01:19:13.510 Both these propositions did indeed strike a death blow at the commerce of Rome. 01:19:14.370 --> 01:19:20.230 If the Pope had not power to dispose at will of the Savior's merits, if, 01:19:20.410 --> 01:19:25.130 on receiving the paper in which the brokers of the Church traded, men did not 01:19:25.130 --> 01:19:29.650 acquire a portion of that infinite righteousness, this paper currency lost 01:19:29.650 --> 01:19:35.270 its value, and men would count it no better than a mere rag, just like our 01:19:35.270 --> 01:19:40.710 Federal Reserve notes, and thus also with the sacraments, the indulgences were, 01:19:40.870 --> 01:19:44.230 in some sense, an extraordinary branch of commerce with Rome. 01:19:47.910 --> 01:19:51.170 Sacraments made part of our ordinary traffic. 01:19:52.070 --> 01:19:54.690 The revenue they yield was by no means small. 01:19:55.770 --> 01:20:00.230 But to assert that faith was necessary to make them productive of any real benefit 01:20:00.230 --> 01:20:04.890 to the soul of the Christian was to rob them of their attraction in the right hand 01:20:04.890 --> 01:20:05.610 side of the people. 01:20:06.610 --> 01:20:08.670 For faith is not in the Pope's gift. 01:20:09.130 --> 01:20:10.450 It is beyond his power. 01:20:10.450 --> 01:20:13.710 And can come from God alone. 01:20:14.310 --> 01:20:19.690 To declare its necessity was, therefore, to snatch from the hands of Rome both the 01:20:19.690 --> 01:20:22.990 speculation and the prophets attached to it. 01:20:25.690 --> 01:20:27.050 We can go on a little bit farther. 01:20:28.450 --> 01:20:32.710 The Pope, said the legate, has authority and power over all things. 01:20:33.970 --> 01:20:37.730 Save the scriptures, replied Luther, with some warmth. 01:20:38.590 --> 01:20:41.090 Save the scriptures, exclaimed Cajetan. 01:20:41.670 --> 01:20:45.010 Do not you know that the Pope is higher than the councils? 01:20:45.690 --> 01:20:50.870 For he has recently condemned and punished the council of Basil. 01:20:52.210 --> 01:20:56.450 After some further discussion, Luther declared in relation to one of the 01:20:56.450 --> 01:21:01.490 articles in dispute, quote, if I yielded anything there, I should be denying 01:21:01.490 --> 01:21:02.030 Christ. 01:21:02.710 --> 01:21:05.790 I cannot, therefore, and will not yield that point. 01:21:05.790 --> 01:21:09.070 But by God's help, we'll hold it to the end, unquote. 01:21:09.990 --> 01:21:15.170 Cardinal Cajetan could hardly restrain his temper at this bold and decisive 01:21:15.170 --> 01:21:15.850 declaration. 01:21:16.290 --> 01:21:20.930 And exclaimed with some warmth, quote, whether you will or will not, 01:21:21.430 --> 01:21:25.950 you must, this very day, retract that article. 01:21:26.410 --> 01:21:32.610 Or else, for that article alone, I will proceed to reject and condemn all 01:21:32.610 --> 01:21:34.170 your doctrine, unquote. 01:21:35.270 --> 01:21:38.730 I have no will but the Lord's, boldly declared Luther. 01:21:39.630 --> 01:21:42.670 He will do with me what seemeth good in his sight. 01:21:43.810 --> 01:21:49.650 But had I a hundred heads, I would rather lose them all than retract the testimony I 01:21:49.650 --> 01:21:51.950 have borne to the holy Christian faith. 01:21:54.790 --> 01:21:55.450 Okay. 01:21:58.590 --> 01:22:06.990 This confrontation between Luther and the legate is a suitable portrait for Thomas 01:22:06.990 --> 01:22:07.610 Kinkade. 01:22:08.570 --> 01:22:11.690 Would to God that he would make a portrait of this. 01:22:12.050 --> 01:22:13.630 It would be absolutely stunning. 01:22:15.110 --> 01:22:19.310 Quote, I am not come here to argue with you, said Cajetan. 01:22:19.970 --> 01:22:23.250 Retract, or prepare to endure the punishment you have deserved. 01:22:24.550 --> 01:22:29.250 Luther clearly perceived that this was impossible to end the affair by himself, 01:22:29.590 --> 01:22:30.530 not by a conference. 01:22:31.190 --> 01:22:35.650 His adversary was seated before him as though he himself were Pope, and required 01:22:35.650 --> 01:22:40.250 a humble submission to all that he said to him, once he received Luther's answers, 01:22:40.650 --> 01:22:45.210 even when grounded on the holy scriptures, with shrugs and every kind of irony and 01:22:45.210 --> 01:22:45.630 contempt. 01:22:46.570 --> 01:22:51.570 Having, therefore, shown a disposition to withdraw, do you wish, said the legate to 01:22:51.570 --> 01:22:55.150 him, that I should give you a safe contact to repair to Rome? 01:22:56.690 --> 01:23:00.590 Nothing would have pleased Cajetan better than the acceptance of this offer. 01:23:01.350 --> 01:23:05.590 He would thus have got rid of an affair of which he began to perceive difficulties, 01:23:06.110 --> 01:23:10.330 and Luther and his heresy would have fallen into the hands of those who would 01:23:10.330 --> 01:23:11.590 have known how to deal with him. 01:23:11.590 --> 01:23:16.510 But the reformer, who was sensible to the dangers that surrounded him, even at 01:23:16.510 --> 01:23:20.930 Augsburg, took care to refuse an offer that would have delivered him up, 01:23:21.570 --> 01:23:24.530 bound hand and foot to the vengeance of his enemies. 01:23:25.290 --> 01:23:30.210 He rejected the proposal as often as Cajetan chose to repeat it, which he did 01:23:30.210 --> 01:23:30.970 several times. 01:23:31.650 --> 01:23:34.830 The legate concealed the chagrin he felt at Luther's refusal. 01:23:35.630 --> 01:23:39.830 He assumed an air of dignity, and dismissed the monk with a compassionate 01:23:39.830 --> 01:23:44.650 smile, under which he endeavored to hide his disappointment, and at the same time, 01:23:45.090 --> 01:23:48.810 with the politeness of one who hopes to have better success another time. 01:23:52.780 --> 01:23:58.080 So here Luther refuses to recant, and he has been dismissed by the legate. 01:24:00.000 --> 01:24:03.560 After two other interviews with the legate, of which the first may be regarded 01:24:03.560 --> 01:24:07.680 as a specimen, Luther saw that his powerful opponent would listen to no 01:24:07.680 --> 01:24:11.160 argument from Scripture, and would be satisfied with nothing short of an 01:24:11.160 --> 01:24:12.240 unconditional retraction. 01:24:13.140 --> 01:24:17.180 A rumor, moreover, reached him that, if he did not retract, he was to be seized 01:24:17.180 --> 01:24:18.380 and thrown into a dungeon. 01:24:19.120 --> 01:24:23.440 When the imperial counselors, through the Bishop of Trent, had informed the legate 01:24:23.440 --> 01:24:27.140 that Luther was under the protection of the Emperor's safe conduct, he had 01:24:27.140 --> 01:24:32.120 passionately replied, Be it so, but I shall do what the Pope enjoins me. 01:24:32.840 --> 01:24:38.840 We have already seen that the Pope's orders were to secure his person, 01:24:38.840 --> 01:24:42.660 detain him in safe custody, and bring him as a... 01:24:52.880 --> 01:24:58.500 I must have lost my place, pardon me. 01:25:01.620 --> 01:25:02.820 As a... 01:25:03.460 --> 01:25:05.400 posed hardly for four centuries ago. 01:25:08.270 --> 01:25:09.710 Lost a page, pardon me. 01:25:09.710 --> 01:25:12.450 So anyway, he is supposed to go to Rome. 01:25:12.910 --> 01:25:14.450 As a prisoner to Rome. 01:25:15.150 --> 01:25:16.430 But what happens? 01:25:17.710 --> 01:25:19.610 Luther is saved. 01:25:21.730 --> 01:25:23.830 Luther does not go to Rome. 01:25:24.750 --> 01:25:28.750 And I'll pick up Luther's escape from Wittenberg. 01:25:30.710 --> 01:25:32.890 Quote, for these reasons... 01:25:32.890 --> 01:25:33.450 Oh, I got here. 01:25:33.490 --> 01:25:34.150 Prisoner to Rome. 01:25:34.150 --> 01:25:38.090 His friends had advised him before the opportunity might be irrevocably lost to 01:25:38.090 --> 01:25:39.130 return from Osberg. 01:25:39.670 --> 01:25:43.410 They knew Cajetan well enough to be satisfied that he was scruple at no means 01:25:43.410 --> 01:25:44.770 to get Luther into his power. 01:25:45.290 --> 01:25:49.210 And the lessons of Constance had taught them how little an Emperor's safe conduct 01:25:49.210 --> 01:25:53.370 might avail with Popish moralists to save a victim from the flames. 01:25:54.410 --> 01:25:57.990 They suspected that the legate might be even then in communication with the 01:25:57.990 --> 01:26:01.550 Emperor to induce him to revoke or to violate his safe conduct. 01:26:02.390 --> 01:26:06.890 For these reasons, they advised Luther to seize the opportunity of returning to 01:26:06.890 --> 01:26:07.350 Wittenberg. 01:26:07.930 --> 01:26:09.630 And he followed their advice. 01:26:10.570 --> 01:26:15.410 They advised him to take every possible precaution, fearing that if his departure 01:26:15.410 --> 01:26:17.050 were known, it might be opposed. 01:26:17.710 --> 01:26:19.990 He followed their directions as well as he could. 01:26:20.730 --> 01:26:25.130 A horse that Stolpitz had left at his disposal was brought to the door of the 01:26:25.130 --> 01:26:25.530 convent. 01:26:26.270 --> 01:26:28.310 Once more, he bids adieu to his brethren. 01:26:28.310 --> 01:26:34.410 He then mounts and sets out, without a bridle for his horse, without boots or 01:26:34.410 --> 01:26:35.670 spurs, and unarmed. 01:26:36.510 --> 01:26:41.230 The magistrate of the city has sent him as a guide a horseman who is well acquainted 01:26:41.230 --> 01:26:42.030 with the thrones. 01:26:42.850 --> 01:26:46.630 This man conducts him in the dark through the silent streets of Augsburg. 01:26:47.250 --> 01:26:50.490 They direct their course to a little gate in the wall of the city. 01:26:51.210 --> 01:26:55.730 One of the counselors, Langmontal, had ordered that it should be opened to 01:26:55.730 --> 01:26:55.910 him. 01:26:55.910 --> 01:26:58.490 He is still in the legate's power. 01:26:59.170 --> 01:27:00.910 The hand of Rome is still over him. 01:27:01.570 --> 01:27:05.530 Doubtless if the Italians knew that their prey was escaping, the cry of pursuit 01:27:05.530 --> 01:27:06.290 would be raised. 01:27:06.990 --> 01:27:11.110 Who knows whether the intrepid adversary of Rome may not still be seized and thrown 01:27:11.110 --> 01:27:11.610 into prison. 01:27:12.370 --> 01:27:15.110 At last, Luther and his guide arrive at the little gate. 01:27:15.550 --> 01:27:16.390 They pass through. 01:27:16.770 --> 01:27:18.050 They are out of Augsburg. 01:27:18.430 --> 01:27:22.330 And putting their horses into a gallop, they soon leave the city far behind. 01:27:22.910 --> 01:27:26.490 Luther urged his horse and kept the poor animal at full speed. 01:27:27.150 --> 01:27:31.390 He called to mind the real or supposed flight of John Hus, the manner in which he 01:27:31.390 --> 01:27:35.730 was overtaken, and the assertion of his adversaries who affirmed that Hus having, 01:27:35.970 --> 01:27:38.590 by his flight, annulled the emperor's safe conduct. 01:27:39.030 --> 01:27:41.110 They had a right to condemn him to the flames. 01:27:41.930 --> 01:27:45.270 However, these uneasy feelings did not long occupy Luther's mind. 01:27:45.270 --> 01:27:49.930 Having got clear from the city where he had spent ten days under the terrible hand 01:27:49.930 --> 01:27:54.150 of Rome, which had already crushed so many thousand witnesses for the truth, 01:27:54.570 --> 01:27:59.390 and shed so much blood, at large breathing in the open air, traversing the villages 01:27:59.390 --> 01:28:04.610 and plains, and wonderfully delivered by the arm of the Lord, his whole soul 01:28:04.610 --> 01:28:05.950 overflowed with praise. 01:28:06.730 --> 01:28:11.350 He might well say, our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers. 01:28:11.350 --> 01:28:13.990 The snare is broken, and we are delivered. 01:28:14.430 --> 01:28:17.110 Our help is in the name of God, who made heaven and earth. 01:28:18.310 --> 01:28:22.970 Thus was the heart of Luther filled with joy, but his thoughts again reverted to 01:28:22.970 --> 01:28:23.610 Deo Vio. 01:28:24.030 --> 01:28:28.850 The cardinal, he thought, would have been well pleased to get me into his power and 01:28:28.850 --> 01:28:29.650 send me to Rome. 01:28:30.130 --> 01:28:32.730 He is no doubt mortified that I have escaped from him. 01:28:33.110 --> 01:28:35.330 He thought he had me in his clutches at Augsburg. 01:28:35.790 --> 01:28:39.790 He thought he held me fast, but he was holding an eel by the tail. 01:28:40.750 --> 01:28:44.670 Shame that these people should set so high a price upon me. 01:28:45.110 --> 01:28:49.270 They would give my many crowns to have me in their power, whilst our Savior Christ 01:28:49.270 --> 01:28:50.890 was sold for thirty pieces of silver. 01:28:52.090 --> 01:28:57.030 Luther reached Wittenberg on the 30th of October, and found on his arrival that the 01:28:57.030 --> 01:29:00.990 disappointed legate had written a letter to the elector, breathing vengeance 01:29:00.990 --> 01:29:06.290 against the contemptible monk that had escaped him, and earnestly entreating 01:29:06.290 --> 01:29:10.370 Frederick to send him as a prisoner to Rome, or at least to banish him from his 01:29:10.370 --> 01:29:10.950 territories. 01:29:11.690 --> 01:29:16.190 The elector refused to liver up Luther to the tender mercies of Rome, and the 01:29:16.190 --> 01:29:19.850 reformer appeared from the derision of the Pope to a general council. 01:29:20.930 --> 01:29:22.730 This appeal was made at Wittenberg. 01:29:31.590 --> 01:29:35.990 Thus we see the escape of Luther from Cardinal Cajun. 01:29:57.440 --> 01:29:58.520 Fight the fight.

most often asked question to 01:32:11.410 --> 01:32:14.150 Southerners was this, Why did you fight? 01:32:14.670 --> 01:32:17.870 And the most often given answer is, because you're here. 01:32:18.270 --> 01:32:22.390 In other words, the South did not invade the North, the North invaded the South. 01:32:22.570 --> 01:32:27.090 Was it the Civil War or War of Federal Aggression? 01:32:27.410 -->

01:33:34.300 --> 01:33:40.300 This is Eric John Phelps once again with our series that we're beginning here with 01:33:40.300 --> 01:33:43.320 regard to the Papacy, the Dark Ages, and the Reformation. 01:33:44.320 --> 01:33:49.020 And we're in now our last half hour that we will continue to deal with Martin 01:33:49.020 --> 01:33:51.060 Luther and the Reformation. 01:33:51.940 --> 01:33:56.460 Reading from John Dowling's The History of Romanism, written in 1845, which is a 01:33:56.460 --> 01:33:56.860 classic. 01:33:56.860 --> 01:34:02.960 It's one of the books that I have scanned into my 13 Rare Books CD with my Vatican 01:34:02.960 --> 01:34:03.800 Assassins book. 01:34:04.300 --> 01:34:10.980 Of course, Vatican Assassins is available from my website, VaticanAssassins.org. 01:34:11.780 --> 01:34:18.960 It's 1,836 pages with many pictures and this CD, a detached free CD, has this book 01:34:18.960 --> 01:34:19.240 in it. 01:34:19.740 --> 01:34:22.820 Okay, The History of Romanism by John Dowling, page 462. 01:34:23.940 --> 01:34:31.280 Now that Luther has escaped Worms, or he has escaped to Augsburg, 01:34:31.480 --> 01:34:33.700 he now is on his way to Worms. 01:34:35.420 --> 01:34:39.920 In the Bull of Leo against Leo, Luther, he thus invokes the Prince of the 01:34:39.920 --> 01:34:40.480 Apostles. 01:34:40.880 --> 01:34:45.220 Arise, O Peter, remember thy holy Roman Church, mother of all the churches and 01:34:45.220 --> 01:34:45.940 mistress of the faith. 01:34:46.420 --> 01:34:52.120 Arise, O Paul, for a new porphyry is here, attacking thy doctrines and the holy Popes 01:34:52.120 --> 01:34:53.040 and our predecessors. 01:34:53.700 --> 01:34:57.260 Finally, arise, O assembly of all the saints, holy Church of God, and intercede 01:34:57.260 --> 01:34:59.040 for us with God Almighty. 01:34:59.760 --> 01:35:04.560 As soon as this bull shall be published, continues the Pope, the bishops are to 01:35:04.560 --> 01:35:08.260 search diligently for the writings of Martin Luther, in which these errors are 01:35:08.260 --> 01:35:13.300 contained, and to burn them publicly and solemnly in the presence of the clergy and 01:35:13.300 --> 01:35:13.720 the laity. 01:35:14.180 --> 01:35:19.100 As to Martin himself, what is there in the name of heaven we have not done. 01:35:19.800 --> 01:35:22.820 Imitating the goodness of God Almighty, we are ready, notwithstanding, 01:35:22.980 --> 01:35:26.720 to receive him again into the bosom of the Church, and we allow him sixty days to 01:35:26.720 --> 01:35:31.420 forward to us his recantation and writing, attended by two prelates, or rather, 01:35:31.840 --> 01:35:35.300 which would be more satisfactory, to present himself before us in Rome, 01:35:35.660 --> 01:35:37.660 that none may any more doubt his obedience. 01:35:37.660 --> 01:35:42.900 In the meantime, he must from this moment cease preaching, teaching, and writing, 01:35:43.340 --> 01:35:44.680 in the space of sixty days. 01:35:45.120 --> 01:35:49.840 We, by these presents, sentence himself, and his adherents as open and contumious 01:35:49.840 --> 01:35:50.820 heretics. 01:35:51.440 --> 01:35:56.960 By the way, I think it is interesting that Malcolm X was silenced by the Masonic 01:35:56.960 --> 01:36:00.360 Elijah Muhammad for sixty days also, I believe. 01:36:00.720 --> 01:36:01.220 Interesting. 01:36:01.380 --> 01:36:03.480 Rome's tactics are always the same. 01:36:05.480 --> 01:36:10.560 Luther coiled not before those papal thunders, which for centuries had made the 01:36:10.560 --> 01:36:12.760 mightiest monarchs tremble on their thrones. 01:36:13.220 --> 01:36:17.080 On the sixth of October, he published his famous tract on the Babylonian captivity 01:36:17.080 --> 01:36:17.800 of the Church. 01:36:18.440 --> 01:36:22.940 He commences his work by ironically stating all the advantages for which he is 01:36:22.940 --> 01:36:23.880 indebted to his enemies. 01:36:24.960 --> 01:36:29.580 Quote, whether I will or no, says he, I learn more and more every day, 01:36:30.040 --> 01:36:32.680 urged on as I am by so many celebrated masters. 01:36:32.680 --> 01:36:38.260 Two years ago I attacked indulgences, but with such faltering indecision that I 01:36:38.260 --> 01:36:39.380 am now ashamed of it. 01:36:39.980 --> 01:36:45.860 It, however, is not to be wondered at, for then I had to roll forward the rock by 01:36:45.860 --> 01:36:46.440 myself. 01:36:47.100 --> 01:36:47.460 Unquote. 01:36:48.000 --> 01:36:51.600 He then returns thanks to Dr. Eck to his other adversaries. 01:36:52.200 --> 01:36:56.660 Quote, I denied, he continues, that the papacy was from God, but admitted 01:36:56.660 --> 01:36:58.300 that it stood by human right. 01:36:59.080 --> 01:37:05.740 But now, after having read all the subtleties on which these worthies set up 01:37:05.740 --> 01:37:13.360 their idol, I know that papacy is nothing but the reign of Babylon and the violence 01:37:13.360 --> 01:37:15.080 of the mighty hunter Nimrod. 01:37:16.580 --> 01:37:21.740 I therefore request all my friends and all booksellers that they will burn the books 01:37:21.740 --> 01:37:25.860 I have before written on this subject and that in their stead substitute this single 01:37:25.860 --> 01:37:31.300 proposition, quote, that papacy is a general chase led by the bishop of Rome 01:37:31.300 --> 01:37:35.680 and having for its object the snaring and ruining of souls. 01:37:35.860 --> 01:37:36.260 Unquote. 01:37:38.720 --> 01:37:42.640 Luther concludes his fearless attack upon the popish Babylon as follows, 01:37:42.840 --> 01:37:46.460 quote, I hear that new papal excommunications have been concocted 01:37:46.460 --> 01:37:46.960 against me. 01:37:47.160 --> 01:37:52.180 If this be so, this book may be regarded as a part of my future recantation. 01:37:52.180 --> 01:37:56.720 The rest will follow shortly in proof of my obedience, and the whole will by 01:37:56.720 --> 01:38:00.280 Christ's help form a collection such as Rome has never yet seen or heard of. 01:38:01.640 --> 01:38:05.220 On the 10th of December following, Luther took the final step which rendered 01:38:05.220 --> 01:38:06.660 reconciliation impossible. 01:38:07.180 --> 01:38:10.980 On that day, a placard was affixed to the walls of the University of Wittenberg. 01:38:11.360 --> 01:38:14.880 It contained an invitation to the professors and students to repair at the 01:38:14.880 --> 01:38:18.580 hour of nine in the morning to the east gate beside the Holy Cross. 01:38:18.580 --> 01:38:23.100 A great number of doctors and youths assembled, and Luther, putting himself at 01:38:23.100 --> 01:38:25.980 their head, led the procession to the appointed spot. 01:38:26.220 --> 01:38:27.060 Now listen to this. 01:38:28.520 --> 01:38:31.040 A scaffold had already been erected. 01:38:31.380 --> 01:38:35.600 One of the oldest among the masters of art soon set fire to it. 01:38:36.300 --> 01:38:42.480 As the flames arose, Luther drew nigh and cast into the midst of them the canon law. 01:38:43.700 --> 01:38:45.000 That's the law of the papacy. 01:38:45.380 --> 01:38:46.160 Threw it in the fire. 01:38:46.160 --> 01:38:52.100 The decretals, the clementines, the extravagance of the popes, 01:38:52.320 --> 01:38:54.980 and a portion of the works of Eck and Emser. 01:38:55.620 --> 01:39:01.280 When these books had been reduced to ashes, Luther took the pope's bull in his 01:39:01.280 --> 01:39:06.160 hand, held it up, and said aloud, Since thou hast afflicted the Lord's Holy 01:39:06.160 --> 01:39:09.720 One, may fire unquenchable afflict and consume thee. 01:39:10.480 --> 01:39:12.560 And thereupon he threw it into the flames. 01:39:17.720 --> 01:39:23.120 He then, with much composure, bent his steps toward the city, and the crowd of 01:39:23.120 --> 01:39:26.560 doctors, professors, and students, with loud expressions of applause, 01:39:26.700 --> 01:39:28.520 returned to Wittenberg in his train. 01:39:28.520 --> 01:39:33.620 The decretals, said Luther, are like a body whose face is as fair as a virgin's, 01:39:33.820 --> 01:39:38.480 but its limbs are forceful as those of a lion, and its tail as that of a wily 01:39:38.480 --> 01:39:38.920 serpent. 01:39:39.400 --> 01:39:43.820 In all the papal laws there is not a single word that teaches what Jesus Christ 01:39:43.820 --> 01:39:44.680 truly is. 01:39:45.880 --> 01:39:50.840 My enemies, he said again, by burning my books, may have despaired to truth in the 01:39:50.840 --> 01:39:53.660 minds of the common people, and occasion the loss of souls. 01:39:53.660 --> 01:39:56.400 For that reason I have burned their books in my turn. 01:39:56.800 --> 01:39:59.080 This is a mighty struggle but just begun. 01:39:59.480 --> 01:40:01.440 Hitherto I have been only jesting with the Pope. 01:40:01.700 --> 01:40:03.940 I entered upon this work in the name of God. 01:40:04.240 --> 01:40:08.300 He will bring it to a close without my aid by his own power. 01:40:08.700 --> 01:40:12.620 If they dare to burn my books, of which it is no vain boast to say that 01:40:12.620 --> 01:40:15.660 they contain more of the gospel than all the Pope's books put together, 01:40:16.120 --> 01:40:20.200 I may with far better reason burn theirs, which are wholly worthless. 01:40:21.380 --> 01:40:27.040 By this act the daring reformer distinctly announced his separation from the Pope and 01:40:27.040 --> 01:40:27.880 the papal church. 01:40:28.400 --> 01:40:31.000 He now accepted the excommunication which Rome had pronounced. 01:40:31.520 --> 01:40:35.580 He proclaimed in the face of Christendom that between him and the Pope there was 01:40:35.580 --> 01:40:37.180 war even unto the death. 01:40:37.820 --> 01:40:41.700 Like the Roman who burned the vessels that had conveyed him to the enemy shore, 01:40:42.200 --> 01:40:46.940 he left himself no resource but to advance and offer battle. 01:40:46.940 --> 01:40:50.440 After this there could be no more peace with Rome. 01:40:51.560 --> 01:40:54.640 Listener, this is the true Martin Luther. 01:40:56.220 --> 01:41:01.140 Well Martin Luther is ultimately brought to the grand died in Worms. 01:41:02.460 --> 01:41:06.020 And we shall examine a few paragraphs here. 01:41:08.000 --> 01:41:11.620 Strenuous efforts were employed to prevent Luther from appearing at Worms. 01:41:12.320 --> 01:41:14.640 His friends trembled for his safety and his life. 01:41:14.640 --> 01:41:18.340 His enemies dreaded what some of them had already witnessed. 01:41:18.900 --> 01:41:22.700 His reasoning, eloquence, and knowledge of the scripture is so superior to their own. 01:41:23.380 --> 01:41:27.020 The papal party tempted him with the hope of an amicable adjustment. 01:41:27.440 --> 01:41:30.080 The advocates of truth sought to excite his apprehensions. 01:41:30.600 --> 01:41:32.040 All their efforts failed. 01:41:32.920 --> 01:41:37.880 Quote, tell your master, he said to a messenger from Spallatin, that though 01:41:37.880 --> 01:41:45.160 there should be as many devils in Worms as there are tiles on the roof of the houses, 01:41:45.580 --> 01:41:46.580 I would go. 01:41:49.120 --> 01:41:53.500 Uninfluenced by persuasions and undaunted by threats, Luther entered Worms on the 01:41:53.500 --> 01:41:54.400 16th of April. 01:41:54.840 --> 01:41:58.140 The day after his arrival, he was summoned to attend the diet. 01:41:58.580 --> 01:42:03.560 On the morning of that day, his soul had endured unwanted depression, almost 01:42:03.560 --> 01:42:04.700 amounting to anguish. 01:42:04.700 --> 01:42:09.200 But in his distress, he sought the Lord with strong crying and tears, and was 01:42:09.200 --> 01:42:10.220 graciously heard. 01:42:11.100 --> 01:42:15.180 Peace returned, and holy undaunted courage again filled his spirit. 01:42:15.740 --> 01:42:21.180 He cheerfully attended the officer who was appointed to conduct him to the hall of 01:42:21.180 --> 01:42:21.580 audience. 01:42:22.120 --> 01:42:25.960 He reached the place with some difficulties, so great was the crowd that 01:42:25.960 --> 01:42:31.720 thronged every avenue in eager curiosity to see the man whose fame had spread 01:42:31.720 --> 01:42:35.480 throughout Germany and on whom the thunders of the Vatican had hitherto 01:42:35.480 --> 01:42:36.620 fallen harmlessly. 01:42:37.580 --> 01:42:39.980 At length he stood before the august assembly. 01:42:40.540 --> 01:42:42.480 The emperor occupied the throne. 01:42:42.700 --> 01:42:43.960 This is the Holy Roman Emperor. 01:42:44.460 --> 01:42:47.180 Next to him sat his brother, the Archduke Ferdinand. 01:42:47.720 --> 01:42:54.300 Six electors of the empire were present, 24 dukes, 8 margraves, 30 prelates, 01:42:54.620 --> 01:42:59.760 7 ambassadors, the deputies of 10 free cities, princes, counts, and barons, 01:43:00.140 --> 01:43:04.980 the papal mincios, and all 204 noble and illustrious personages. 01:43:05.860 --> 01:43:09.500 The countenances of many betrayed deep inward concern and anxiety. 01:43:10.260 --> 01:43:16.440 Luther had held communion with God, and enjoyed perfect peace." On the table 01:43:16.440 --> 01:43:17.960 was laid a collection of his writings. 01:43:18.420 --> 01:43:21.920 He was asked whether he acknowledged them as his productions, and whether he was 01:43:21.920 --> 01:43:24.540 prepared to retract the opinions they contained. 01:43:24.540 --> 01:43:27.540 To the first question he answered in the affirmative. 01:43:28.120 --> 01:43:32.120 To the second he replied that the question was very serious and important, 01:43:32.580 --> 01:43:36.840 and ought not to be answered without due consideration, lest he should in any way 01:43:36.840 --> 01:43:38.820 injure the cause of truth. 01:43:39.240 --> 01:43:43.660 He asked, therefore, for a brief delay, so reasonable a request could not be 01:43:43.660 --> 01:43:44.120 refused. 01:43:45.080 --> 01:43:46.480 Next day he appeared again. 01:43:46.940 --> 01:43:47.960 The questions were repeated. 01:43:48.820 --> 01:43:50.200 Luther then addressed the assembly. 01:43:50.760 --> 01:43:53.900 He had acknowledged, he said, the books on the table to be his. 01:43:53.900 --> 01:43:56.840 Their contents differed much from each other. 01:43:57.340 --> 01:44:01.580 In some he had treated of faith and works, unmasking the errors of the age. 01:44:02.060 --> 01:44:04.500 He could not retract them without treachery to the gospel. 01:44:05.320 --> 01:44:09.940 A second class consisted of writings in which he had exposed the enormous 01:44:09.940 --> 01:44:12.700 corruptions and abuses of the papacy. 01:44:13.300 --> 01:44:18.220 These were so notorious, and had been so long and so justly the subject of loud 01:44:18.220 --> 01:44:23.060 complaint in Germany, that it would be worse than folly to suppress the works in 01:44:23.060 --> 01:44:26.260 which they were held up to public reprobation. 01:44:27.360 --> 01:44:31.340 In the third piece he had, in some of his books, attacked individuals who had 01:44:31.340 --> 01:44:33.460 advocated existing evils. 01:44:33.960 --> 01:44:38.100 And he was willing to confess, for he could not pretend to be free from 01:44:38.100 --> 01:44:41.540 fault, that he had sometimes written with unbecoming violence. 01:44:42.220 --> 01:44:46.660 Yet he could not retract the sentiments advanced in those writings, because such a 01:44:46.660 --> 01:44:50.360 course would encourage the enemies of the truth, and embolden them in their 01:44:50.360 --> 01:44:50.900 opposition. 01:44:51.840 --> 01:44:55.800 Wherefore he prayed that instead of persisting in the demand for retractions, 01:44:56.340 --> 01:44:59.960 the Diet would take measures to convince him from the scriptures of his error. 01:45:00.940 --> 01:45:04.520 As soon as he should be convinced, he would immediately acknowledge it. 01:45:04.520 --> 01:45:10.080 You have not answered the question, said the Chancellor of the Archbishop of 01:45:10.080 --> 01:45:14.800 Treves, to whom the management of this part of the business was entrusted. 01:45:15.640 --> 01:45:18.180 A clear and express reply is required. 01:45:19.100 --> 01:45:22.260 Will you or will you not retract? 01:45:24.380 --> 01:45:27.080 The reformer's answer was worthy of him. 01:45:28.400 --> 01:45:33.860 Since your most serene majesty and the prince's require a simple answer, 01:45:34.060 --> 01:45:35.240 I will give it thus. 01:45:36.300 --> 01:45:41.140 Unless I shall be convinced by proofs from scripture, or by evident reason, 01:45:41.320 --> 01:45:46.800 for I believe neither in popes nor in councils, since they have frequently erred 01:45:46.800 --> 01:45:52.300 in contradicting themselves, I cannot choose but to adhere to the word of God, 01:45:52.660 --> 01:45:54.640 which has possession of my conscience. 01:45:54.640 --> 01:46:02.060 Nor can I possibly, nor will I ever make any recantation, since it is neither safe 01:46:02.060 --> 01:46:04.500 nor honest to act contrary to conscience. 01:46:05.360 --> 01:46:07.180 Here I take my stand. 01:46:07.640 --> 01:46:08.960 I cannot do otherwise. 01:46:09.740 --> 01:46:10.840 God be my help. 01:46:11.320 --> 01:46:11.640 Amen. 01:46:12.940 --> 01:46:17.000 These are Luther's immortal words before the Diet of Worms. 01:46:17.400 --> 01:46:21.620 Remember, there are 204 nobles here, including the Holy Roman Emperor. 01:46:21.620 --> 01:46:23.340 There is a cardinal here. 01:46:24.000 --> 01:46:28.620 Any individual would be shaking in his boots, but God has given Luther the 01:46:28.620 --> 01:46:30.760 strength to do and to say these things. 01:46:31.980 --> 01:46:33.800 The speech made deep impression. 01:46:34.540 --> 01:46:37.020 The Emperor himself was struck with admiration. 01:46:37.860 --> 01:46:41.600 If you will not retract, resume the Chancellor, the Emperor and the states of 01:46:41.600 --> 01:46:44.740 the Empire will see what ought to be done with an obstinate heretic. 01:46:45.780 --> 01:46:47.600 God be my help, rejoined Luther. 01:46:47.800 --> 01:46:49.920 I can retract nothing. 01:46:51.660 --> 01:46:54.740 He then withdrew, leaving the Diet in deliberation. 01:46:55.460 --> 01:46:58.000 When he was called in again, another effort was made. 01:46:58.480 --> 01:47:02.800 His appeal to scripture was treated with contempt, since he had revived errors 01:47:02.800 --> 01:47:07.540 which had been condemned by the Council of Constance, as if the authority of the 01:47:07.540 --> 01:47:10.180 Council of Constance were superior to that of the word of God. 01:47:11.130 --> 01:47:16.420 In conclusion, the Chancellor said, The Emperor commands you to say simply yes 01:47:16.420 --> 01:47:21.600 or no, whether you mean to maintain whatever you have advanced or whether you 01:47:21.600 --> 01:47:22.700 will retract a part. 01:47:23.800 --> 01:47:29.940 I have no other answer to give than what I have already given, replied the courageous 01:47:29.940 --> 01:47:31.040 reformer. 01:47:31.460 --> 01:47:37.340 In spite of the persuasions or menaces of his opposers, he persisted in this noble 01:47:37.340 --> 01:47:38.060 determination. 01:47:38.060 --> 01:47:43.160 In reply to the entreaties of the Archbishop of Treves, who labored hard to 01:47:43.160 --> 01:47:47.780 induce him to submit to the Diet, I will put my person and my life in the 01:47:47.780 --> 01:47:51.340 Emperor's hands, said he, but the word of God, never. 01:47:52.600 --> 01:47:55.160 He claimed for every Christian the right of private judgment. 01:47:55.780 --> 01:48:00.040 If he consented to a council, it would be only on condition that the council should 01:48:00.040 --> 01:48:02.620 be compelled to judge according to the scriptures. 01:48:05.080 --> 01:48:06.480 Protracted debates followed. 01:48:06.960 --> 01:48:10.880 Some counseled the violation of the safe conduct and urged the Emperor to seize 01:48:10.880 --> 01:48:12.600 Luther and put him to death. 01:48:13.660 --> 01:48:17.560 But the high-minded princes of Germany scorned the base proposal. 01:48:18.500 --> 01:48:22.040 Charles himself, bigoted as he was, revolted at it. 01:48:22.920 --> 01:48:27.160 If good faith were banished from the whole earth, he exclaimed, it ought still to 01:48:27.160 --> 01:48:28.840 find refuge in the courts of kings. 01:48:29.920 --> 01:48:33.920 At length, the adversaries of the reformers saw that it was useless to labor 01:48:33.920 --> 01:48:38.820 longer with him to induce him to submit, and other measures must be adopted. 01:48:39.620 --> 01:48:42.680 Efforts were made by some of Luther's bitterish, popish adversaries, 01:48:42.980 --> 01:48:47.240 but without success, to induce the Emperor, like his predecessor Sigismund, 01:48:47.600 --> 01:48:52.500 to violate his safe conduct and to leave Luther, as Sigismund had left Huss, 01:48:52.840 --> 01:48:54.620 to the tender mercies of the Church. 01:48:54.620 --> 01:49:00.380 And it was in reply to these suggestions that Charles V, the Emperor of the Holy 01:49:00.380 --> 01:49:05.100 Roman Empire, uttered that expression already mentioned in the account of the 01:49:05.100 --> 01:49:10.540 cruel and treacherous murder of Huss, quote, I should not like to blush like 01:49:10.540 --> 01:49:11.780 Sigismund, unquote. 01:49:14.240 --> 01:49:20.040 Well, what we have is Luther then is placed under a ban of the Empire and 01:49:20.040 --> 01:49:22.560 threatening the same to all that protect him. 01:49:22.560 --> 01:49:24.140 And here is what it reads. 01:49:25.220 --> 01:49:30.120 For by this end, and on pain of incurring the penalty of treason, we hereby forbid 01:49:30.120 --> 01:49:34.840 you to receive the said Luther from the moment when the said term is expired, 01:49:35.260 --> 01:49:40.260 or to harbor or to give him meat or drink, or by word or act, publicly or in private, 01:49:40.700 --> 01:49:41.760 to aid or abet him. 01:49:41.760 --> 01:49:46.940 We further enjoin you to seize or cause him to be seized, whether he may be, 01:49:47.320 --> 01:49:52.400 and to bring him before us without delay or hold him in endurance, until you shall 01:49:52.400 --> 01:49:56.680 be informed how to deal with him and have received the reward due to your 01:49:56.680 --> 01:49:58.260 cooperation in this holy work. 01:49:58.900 --> 01:50:03.600 As to his adherents, you are enjoined to seize upon him, putting them down and 01:50:03.600 --> 01:50:04.800 confiscating their property. 01:50:04.800 --> 01:50:11.420 And if anyone, whatever may be his reign, should dare to act contrary to this decree 01:50:11.420 --> 01:50:17.000 of our Imperial Majesty, we commend that he be placed under the ban of the Empire, 01:50:17.500 --> 01:50:19.620 that each one observe this decree. 01:50:22.530 --> 01:50:27.490 So, after the safe conduct expires, Luther is to be condemned. 01:50:28.830 --> 01:50:29.710 Well, what happens? 01:50:31.350 --> 01:50:34.190 We now read of the Lord's delivering Luther. 01:50:36.110 --> 01:50:40.730 In the meanwhile, Luther had left Worms, and after spending a day or two on his way 01:50:40.730 --> 01:50:44.050 to his native village of Eisenach, was on the road to Wittenberg, 01:50:44.290 --> 01:50:47.050 accompanied by Amsdorff and his brother James. 01:50:47.770 --> 01:50:51.710 He skirted the woods of Thuringen, taking the path that leads to 01:50:51.710 --> 01:50:53.110 Waltershausen. 01:50:53.770 --> 01:50:57.850 As the wagon was passing a narrow defile near the ruined church of Gilsbeck, 01:50:58.170 --> 01:51:02.450 a short distance from the castle of Altenstein, suddenly a noise was heard, 01:51:02.930 --> 01:51:07.290 and in a moment five horsemen, masked and armed from head to foot, 01:51:07.450 --> 01:51:08.090 fell upon them. 01:51:08.750 --> 01:51:12.710 His brother James, as soon as he caught sight of the assailants, jumped from the 01:51:12.710 --> 01:51:15.890 wagon and fled as fast as he could without uttering a word. 01:51:16.410 --> 01:51:17.790 The driver would have resisted. 01:51:18.150 --> 01:51:22.410 Stop, cried a hoarse voice, and instantly one of the attacking party threw him to 01:51:22.410 --> 01:51:22.830 the earth. 01:51:23.490 --> 01:51:28.370 Another of the masked grasped Amsdorff and held him fast. 01:51:28.370 --> 01:51:33.050 While this was doing, the three horsemen laid hold on Luther, maintaining profound 01:51:33.050 --> 01:51:33.670 silence. 01:51:34.130 --> 01:51:37.850 They forced him to alight, and throwing a knight's cloak over his shoulders, 01:51:37.990 --> 01:51:42.550 set him on a horse that they had with them. 01:51:43.110 --> 01:51:48.350 This done, the two other masked let go Amsdorff and the wagoner, and the whole 01:51:48.350 --> 01:51:49.930 five sprang into their saddles. 01:51:50.530 --> 01:51:53.370 One dropped his cap, but they did not stop to recover it. 01:51:53.370 --> 01:51:57.190 And in the twinkling of an eye, the party and their prisoner were lost in 01:51:57.190 --> 01:51:58.370 the thick gloom of the forest. 01:51:59.150 --> 01:52:03.890 At first they took the direction of a particular direction, and they rapidly 01:52:03.890 --> 01:52:07.910 changed their route, and without quitting the forest, rode first in one direction 01:52:07.910 --> 01:52:12.530 and then in another, turning their horses' feet to baffle any attempt to track their 01:52:12.530 --> 01:52:12.930 course. 01:52:13.670 --> 01:52:17.470 Luther, little used to riding, was soon overcome with fatigue. 01:52:18.030 --> 01:52:20.610 His guides permitted him to stop for a few instants. 01:52:20.610 --> 01:52:27.130 He rested on the earth beside a beech tree and drank some of the water from the 01:52:27.130 --> 01:52:28.630 spring, which still bears his name. 01:52:29.610 --> 01:52:34.770 His brother James, continuing his flight from the scene of their re-encounter, 01:52:35.370 --> 01:52:39.590 reached Walter's house on that evening, the driver hastily throwing himself into 01:52:39.590 --> 01:52:44.150 the wagon in which Amsdorff had already mounted, galloped his horse at full speed 01:52:44.150 --> 01:52:46.310 and conducted Luther's friend to Wittenberg. 01:52:46.310 --> 01:52:51.470 At Walter's house in Wittenberg, in the open country, the villages and 01:52:51.470 --> 01:52:55.370 towns en route, the news spread that Luther was carried off. 01:52:56.010 --> 01:52:59.490 Some rejoiced at the report, but the greater number were struck with 01:52:59.490 --> 01:53:04.130 astonishment and indignation, and soon a cry of grief resounded throughout Germany. 01:53:04.730 --> 01:53:08.130 Luther had fallen into the hands of his enemies. 01:53:09.730 --> 01:53:12.250 These apprehensions, however, were groundless. 01:53:12.250 --> 01:53:17.410 The abduction of Luther was planned by his friends and protectors, with a concurrence 01:53:17.410 --> 01:53:22.050 of the Elector Frederick, and as some suppose, with a connivance even of the 01:53:22.050 --> 01:53:26.890 Emperor himself, who, notwithstanding his desire to court the favor of the Pope and 01:53:26.890 --> 01:53:30.450 to uphold the religion of Rome, might yet have been unwilling to incur the 01:53:30.450 --> 01:53:34.150 indignation of Germany by delivering up Luther to the flames. 01:53:35.090 --> 01:53:39.210 Be this as it may, without doubt, the hand of God was visible in thus 01:53:39.210 --> 01:53:45.230 providing his faithful servant with a retreat from the rage of his bloodthirsty 01:53:45.230 --> 01:53:45.850 enemies. 01:53:47.490 --> 01:53:52.010 The potpourri must be robbed of its prey, and his faithful servant must have leisure 01:53:52.010 --> 01:53:55.950 and retirement to continue his bold exposure of the Mother of Harlots, 01:53:56.110 --> 01:54:00.450 and above all, to give the New Testament, from which he had learned the doctrines he 01:54:00.450 --> 01:54:02.450 preached to the Germans in their native tongue. 01:54:02.450 --> 01:54:07.950 These objects were accomplished by his mysterious and providential abduction. 01:54:08.670 --> 01:54:14.370 The place to which Luther was conducted with his mysterious guise was the lofty 01:54:14.370 --> 01:54:19.690 and isolated castle of Wurttberg, an ancient residence of the land-graze of 01:54:19.690 --> 01:54:20.110 Thurgin. 01:54:22.430 --> 01:54:27.930 They took away his ecclesiastical habit, attiring him in the nightly dress prepared 01:54:27.930 --> 01:54:32.410 for him, and enjoining him to let his beard and hair grow, that no one in the 01:54:32.410 --> 01:54:33.670 castle might know who he was. 01:54:34.870 --> 01:54:38.970 The attendants of the castle at Wurttberg were to know the prisoner only by the name 01:54:38.970 --> 01:54:39.870 of Knight George. 01:54:40.870 --> 01:54:44.690 Luther scarcely recognized himself under his singular metamorphosis. 01:54:45.550 --> 01:54:49.990 Left at length to his meditations, he had leisure to revolve the 01:54:49.990 --> 01:54:55.310 extraordinary events that had befallen him, the uncertain future that awaited 01:54:55.310 --> 01:54:57.970 him, and his new and strange abode. 01:54:59.330 --> 01:55:03.330 During the ten months of the reformer's captivity, the Knight George was not idle. 01:55:03.930 --> 01:55:07.470 In the castle of Wurttberg, Luther composed works which mightily tended to 01:55:07.470 --> 01:55:08.990 shake the Romish power in Germany. 01:55:09.630 --> 01:55:14.510 Auricular confession, private masses, and monistic vows were the themes on which 01:55:14.510 --> 01:55:18.490 his resistless eloquence was employed. 01:55:18.490 --> 01:55:23.470 He held them up to the indignant reprobation of men, and satisfactorily 01:55:23.470 --> 01:55:27.950 proved that they were all alike opposed to the word of God and to Christian freedom. 01:55:28.630 --> 01:55:32.290 But his greatest work was the translation of the New Testament into the German 01:55:32.290 --> 01:55:32.870 language. 01:55:33.450 --> 01:55:35.370 This also was executed at Wurttberg. 01:55:36.070 --> 01:55:40.690 It is the noblest monument of his genius, and was the most precious gift that 01:55:40.690 --> 01:55:42.010 Germany had yet received. 01:55:42.800 --> 01:55:47.510 The volume was published in September 1522, and was received with gratitude and 01:55:47.510 --> 01:55:48.970 joy by those who loved the truth. 01:55:49.410 --> 01:55:53.730 But it was denounced and vilified, and in many places publicly burned by the 01:55:53.730 --> 01:55:54.730 bigoted Romanists. 01:55:55.830 --> 01:56:00.770 Well, this is the story of Martin Luther, and this is the story of really the father 01:56:00.770 --> 01:56:02.070 of the Protestant Reformation. 01:56:02.750 --> 01:56:07.210 And had it not been for Martin Luther, there would have been no spreading of the 01:56:07.210 --> 01:56:12.550 word of God in Northern Europe, and the founding of the free 01:56:12.550 --> 01:56:18.890 Protestant-based republics of Germany, and Holland, and Denmark, and the English 01:56:18.890 --> 01:56:25.010 Commonwealth, and the Republic of South Africa, and Rhodesia, ultimately, 01:56:25.310 --> 01:56:26.770 and the United States and Canada. 01:56:27.210 --> 01:56:32.510 These are the Western Protestant white nations that were established to get the 01:56:32.510 --> 01:56:34.070 gospel to the ends of the earth. 01:56:34.070 --> 01:56:39.250 And Martin Luther was the one who made it possible, the one whom the Lord used to 01:56:39.250 --> 01:56:39.950 accomplish this. 01:56:40.470 --> 01:56:42.570 Germany went on to be a great nation. 01:56:43.030 --> 01:56:47.070 It became the hub and the most powerful commercial entity in the empire. 01:56:47.710 --> 01:56:53.610 And later, when the Second Reich was established by Bismarck in 1871, 01:56:54.530 --> 01:56:59.370 it was a Protestant Reich, it was a Protestant Holy Roman Empire, so to say. 01:56:59.370 --> 01:57:05.470 And Germany became the most powerful nation in Europe, it became the most 01:57:05.470 --> 01:57:11.230 advanced in its creations, in its arts and sciences, all because of one thing, 01:57:11.750 --> 01:57:17.010 that Martin Luther got the language, the German people, the Bible in their own 01:57:17.010 --> 01:57:21.350 language, contrary to what the Jesuits sought to do with the Council of Trent. 01:57:22.270 --> 01:57:28.290 Well, this is our first half, is our review of the Dark Ages of Pope Hildebrand 01:57:28.290 --> 01:57:34.970 and Innocent III, the two absolute dictatorial, vicious and cruel popes that 01:57:34.970 --> 01:57:38.390 the Jesuits would like to bring back in their restoration of the Dark Ages, 01:57:38.470 --> 01:57:39.490 which is the New Age Movement. 01:57:40.270 --> 01:57:44.830 And then the second half of this two-hour period, we reviewed the Reformation, 01:57:45.490 --> 01:57:49.330 the Protestant Reformation, and its leader, Martin Luther. 01:57:49.330 --> 01:57:53.830 When he championed the doctrine of the just shall live by faith, when he 01:57:53.830 --> 01:57:58.250 condemned the doctrine of transubstantiation, when he held forth the 01:57:58.250 --> 01:58:02.950 doctrine of there is only salvation in Christ and that the word of God was 01:58:02.950 --> 01:58:06.310 supreme above all the pope's bulls and councils. 01:58:07.690 --> 01:58:14.830 Our next section will be on the devil's establishment of the Jesuit order in his 01:58:14.830 --> 01:58:17.410 person of Ignatius Loyola. 01:58:17.410 --> 01:58:23.730 And we shall see that the following 500 years are nothing more than the warfare 01:58:23.730 --> 01:58:28.390 between Luther and Loyola, the Reformation versus the Counter-Reformation. 01:58:29.210 --> 01:58:30.410 This is Eric John Phelps. 01:58:30.990 --> 01:58:31.230 If 01:59:05.520 --> 01:59:12.080 you'd like to get a copy of this program, there are a few ways that we can help you. 01:59:12.420 --> 01:59:17.360 You

Good evening, this is Eric John Phelps. 02:00:05.390 --> 02:00:11.170 We are now going to begin the hour concerning the founding of the Jesuit 02:00:11.170 --> 02:00:11.550 order. 02:00:13.410 --> 02:00:19.590 And this is the result of the devil's response to the Lord's Protestant 02:00:19.590 --> 02:00:20.150 Reformation. 02:00:21.410 --> 02:00:30.350 When the Lord raised up Martin Luther to contend with the papacy by standing on the 02:00:30.350 --> 02:00:35.050 doctrines of the word of God, which he could not go against his conscience, 02:00:35.190 --> 02:00:36.410 it was neither safe nor right. 02:00:37.590 --> 02:00:39.290 We read those immortal words last night. 02:00:40.330 --> 02:00:43.990 And now, as a result, the devil will bring forth his champion. 02:00:44.750 --> 02:00:47.550 And that champion is Ignatius Loyola. 02:00:49.210 --> 02:00:51.330 Ignatius Loyola was the founder of the Jesuits. 02:00:52.630 --> 02:00:56.490 And we shall see that he was a military man. 02:00:57.490 --> 02:01:03.490 A man that he was absolutely and completely and totally given over to his 02:01:03.490 --> 02:01:03.970 purposes. 02:01:05.570 --> 02:01:11.050 Before we mention him, we shall go to a couple of paragraphs here finalizing what 02:01:11.050 --> 02:01:12.870 we owe to the Reformation. 02:01:14.650 --> 02:01:18.230 This is from the late Bishop John Charles Ryle. 02:01:19.230 --> 02:01:20.230 And I quote... 02:01:30.390 --> 02:01:36.810 By the way, the Reformation English Bible is the English Bible based upon the Hebrew 02:01:36.810 --> 02:01:41.990 Masoretic Text and the Greek Textus Receptus, also called the Received Text, 02:01:42.230 --> 02:01:45.430 also called the Byzantine Text, also called the Majority Text. 02:01:46.230 --> 02:01:49.770 There are only two English Bibles based upon those texts. 02:01:50.850 --> 02:01:55.170 The first is the Geneva Bible and the second is the AB 1611. 02:01:55.530 --> 02:02:01.450 All other Bibles are based on a pro-West Cotton Horde Greek Text or Jerome's Latin 02:02:01.450 --> 02:02:06.070 Vulgate, which West Cotton Horde's Greek Text follows. 02:02:06.530 --> 02:02:11.670 It was a secret Greek Text in the Revision Committee in the 1870s intended to 02:02:11.670 --> 02:02:16.430 overthrow the Textus Receptus and also to overthrow the AB 1611 with the English 02:02:16.430 --> 02:02:17.190 Revised Version. 02:02:17.910 --> 02:02:23.210 So therefore, the Jesuits in seeking to destroy the Reformation foreign British 02:02:23.210 --> 02:02:26.870 Empire had to destroy or discredit its English Bible. 02:02:27.330 --> 02:02:30.710 So therefore, when we speak of an English Bible, we speak only of two. 02:02:31.390 --> 02:02:35.430 The Geneva Bible and the AB 1611, the King James Bible. 02:02:36.690 --> 02:02:38.890 Back to our quote... 02:02:43.710 --> 02:02:47.630 The translation of the Bible was the earliest and most powerful. 02:02:48.530 --> 02:02:51.630 It struck a blow at the root of the whole Roman system. 02:02:52.610 --> 02:02:58.630 Before a free Bible and fair play for all who used it, the Pope's champions could 02:02:58.630 --> 02:02:59.590 not long stand. 02:03:00.550 --> 02:03:05.330 The huge fabric of Popery cracked, shivered, and fell to the ground like a 02:03:05.330 --> 02:03:06.190 pack of cards. 02:03:06.910 --> 02:03:11.930 With a Bible in every church, every thoughtful man soon saw that the religion 02:03:11.930 --> 02:03:14.750 of the priests had no warrant of Holy Scriptures. 02:03:15.430 --> 02:03:20.810 It is a striking and instructive fact that of all the agencies that combined to win 02:03:20.810 --> 02:03:26.350 the English Reformation, hardly any called forth such bitter opposition as the 02:03:26.350 --> 02:03:28.710 translation and circulation of the Scriptures. 02:03:29.710 --> 02:03:36.170 Even in 1519, long before Cramer began his good work, Fox records that six men and a 02:03:36.170 --> 02:03:41.470 woman were burned at Coventry for teaching their children the Lord's Prayer and the 02:03:41.470 --> 02:03:42.350 Ten Commandments. 02:03:42.670 --> 02:03:49.710 By the way, Coventry was a target of the Jesuits when they used Goring's Ludwof to 02:03:49.710 --> 02:03:55.070 bomb Protestant Coventry in World War II in the 1940s. 02:03:56.810 --> 02:04:01.310 And the charge against the accused persons was, not the possession of a Bible, 02:04:01.730 --> 02:04:05.870 but of an English Bible, or Book of the New Law of England. 02:04:10.550 --> 02:04:15.170 Afterwards, when the Reformation fairly began, nothing seemed to have alarmed and 02:04:15.170 --> 02:04:19.570 enraged the Romish priesthood so much as the spread of English Bibles. 02:04:19.570 --> 02:04:24.270 It was this that cost the martyred Reformer Tyndale his life. 02:04:25.370 --> 02:04:27.650 Tyndale was the father of the English Bible. 02:04:28.850 --> 02:04:32.430 He was burned because he would translate and circulate the Scriptures. 02:04:33.330 --> 02:04:38.990 The relentless enmity with which he was persecuted and finally hunted to death by 02:04:38.990 --> 02:04:44.390 Sir Thomas More and others, tells a tale which he who runs may read. 02:04:45.070 --> 02:04:54.850 The priest well knew and well that the game was up if the people once saw the 02:04:54.850 --> 02:04:55.850 inside of the Bible. 02:04:56.790 --> 02:05:01.390 He might as well have stopped the tide rising at Chepsaw and prevent Jupiter's 02:05:01.390 --> 02:05:06.790 satellites revolving around him as to stop the progress of the Protestant cause when 02:05:06.790 --> 02:05:09.310 the laity once began to read the Bible Scriptures. 02:05:10.290 --> 02:05:15.290 In vain, Bishop Tunstall seized the book and Bishop Bonner burned it at Paul's 02:05:15.290 --> 02:05:15.750 cross. 02:05:16.790 --> 02:05:21.250 Its leading contents and principles ran through the land like fire and from that 02:05:21.250 --> 02:05:23.910 period the Pope's cause in England was shaken to the center. 02:05:24.970 --> 02:05:29.330 You that read the Bible daily and delight in the law of the Lord, never forget that 02:05:29.330 --> 02:05:31.210 you owe that Bible to the Reformation. 02:05:32.450 --> 02:05:36.350 For another thing, we owe to the Reformation an open road to the throne of 02:05:36.350 --> 02:05:38.790 grace and the great fountain of peace with God. 02:05:38.790 --> 02:05:45.950 That blessed road had long been blocked up and made impassable by heaps of rubbish of 02:05:45.950 --> 02:05:46.750 man's invention. 02:05:47.730 --> 02:05:52.630 Under pretense of mending and improving the road, the divines of Rome had spoiled 02:05:52.630 --> 02:05:53.270 it altogether. 02:05:53.910 --> 02:05:58.170 He who desired to obtain forgiveness had to seek it through a jungle of priests, 02:05:58.770 --> 02:06:04.890 saints, merry worship, masses, penances, concessions, absolution, 02:06:05.490 --> 02:06:10.070 and the like, so that there might as well have been no throne of grace at all. 02:06:10.970 --> 02:06:14.810 The huge mass of rubbish was shoveled out of the way by the Reformers. 02:06:14.810 --> 02:06:20.670 The doctrine of our glorious 11th article was everywhere preached and published and 02:06:20.670 --> 02:06:21.210 proclaimed. 02:06:21.810 --> 02:06:25.610 This is the 11th article of the Anglican Confession of the 39 Articles. 02:06:26.530 --> 02:06:30.910 People were taught that justification was by faith without the deeds of the law, 02:06:31.630 --> 02:06:36.070 and that every heavy laden sinner on earth had a right to go straight to the Lord 02:06:36.070 --> 02:06:45.130 Jesus Christ for remission of sins, without waiting for pope or priest, 02:06:45.670 --> 02:06:49.050 confession or absolution, masses or extreme unction. 02:06:50.090 --> 02:06:52.950 From that time the backbone of English popery was broken. 02:06:53.830 --> 02:06:57.750 You that are walking by faith and enjoying peace with God by simple trust in the 02:06:57.750 --> 02:07:03.150 precious blood of atonement, never forget that you owe its priceless privilege to 02:07:03.150 --> 02:07:03.730 the Reformation. 02:07:04.910 --> 02:07:08.890 We owe to the Reformation a true idea of Christian worship. 02:07:09.770 --> 02:07:13.990 In the days when Romanism ruled England undisturbed, the service of God's house 02:07:13.990 --> 02:07:19.350 must have been, to most Englishmen, a mysterious performance which left them 02:07:19.350 --> 02:07:21.350 entirely in the hands of the priests. 02:07:22.470 --> 02:07:26.090 If they were present at any church service, they could only be present as 02:07:26.090 --> 02:07:29.430 sleeping partners or passive ignorant spectators. 02:07:29.430 --> 02:07:37.930 It was a mere formal histrionic worship to which the laity could only bring their 02:07:37.930 --> 02:07:43.230 bodies, but in which their minds and reason and spirit and understanding could 02:07:43.230 --> 02:07:44.250 take no part at all. 02:07:45.190 --> 02:07:48.470 This solemn farce was completely stopped by the Reformers. 02:07:49.010 --> 02:07:54.090 They laid down the great principle of our 24th article, that it is a thing plainly 02:07:54.090 --> 02:07:58.230 repugnant to the word of God and the custom of the primitive church to have 02:07:58.230 --> 02:08:03.210 public prayer in the church, to minister the sacraments in a tongue not understood 02:08:03.210 --> 02:08:04.650 by the people. 02:08:05.870 --> 02:08:11.090 They introduced into every English church the English Bible, an English prayer book, 02:08:11.510 --> 02:08:21.190 English preaching, simple plain services and a simple untheatrical administration 02:08:21.190 --> 02:08:22.650 of Christ's two sacraments. 02:08:23.230 --> 02:08:28.070 Of course they could not make the people Christians, but from the Isle of Wight to 02:08:28.070 --> 02:08:33.470 Berwick-on-Tweed and from the land's end to the north of Portland, a worship was 02:08:33.470 --> 02:08:36.810 set up in every church which the poorest laborer might understand. 02:08:38.270 --> 02:08:42.030 We owe to the Reformation a true notion of the office of a Christian minister. 02:08:42.630 --> 02:08:47.610 Before the eyes of Englishmen were opened by the Bible, it was a settled idea in all 02:08:47.610 --> 02:08:52.070 men's lands that the Christian ministry was a sacerdotal ministry, like that of 02:08:52.070 --> 02:08:55.790 the Jews, and that every clergyman was a sacrificing priest. 02:08:56.490 --> 02:09:02.430 The clergy were supposed to hold the keys to heaven and to be practically mediators 02:09:02.430 --> 02:09:03.570 between God and man. 02:09:04.150 --> 02:09:09.230 The natural result was that they generally became spiritual tyrants and were exalted 02:09:09.230 --> 02:09:12.630 to a position which was enough to turn the head of any mortal man. 02:09:13.610 --> 02:09:17.510 Placed far too high, the priests became despots. 02:09:17.990 --> 02:09:20.670 Placed far too low, the lady became slaves. 02:09:21.650 --> 02:09:25.290 The Reformers brought the office of the clergy down to its scriptural level. 02:09:26.070 --> 02:09:28.830 They stripped it entirely of any sacerdotal character. 02:09:29.430 --> 02:09:33.290 They cast out the words sacrifice and altar from the prayer book. 02:09:34.030 --> 02:09:38.390 And though they retained the word priest, they retained it only in the sense of 02:09:38.390 --> 02:09:39.770 presbyter or elder. 02:09:40.250 --> 02:09:44.250 They taught the people everywhere that the clergy were not lords of the church, 02:09:44.390 --> 02:09:48.050 but like Paul and Timothy, its servants, Philippians 1.1. 02:09:48.750 --> 02:09:52.890 Ambassadors, messengers, witnesses, evangelists, teachers and ministers of the 02:09:52.890 --> 02:09:53.870 word and sacraments. 02:09:54.770 --> 02:09:58.150 Above all, they declared, as the ordination of the church shows, 02:09:58.290 --> 02:10:03.550 that the chief business of a Christian minister is to, quote, to be diligent in 02:10:03.550 --> 02:10:07.730 prayer and the reading of the scriptures, and to lay aside the study of the world 02:10:07.730 --> 02:10:09.170 and flesh, unquote. 02:10:10.150 --> 02:10:14.110 And as to any power of the keys and binding and loosing, they taught, 02:10:14.510 --> 02:10:19.110 as Jewel's apology distinctly informs us, that it was to be exercised by preaching 02:10:19.110 --> 02:10:24.250 the gospel to the penitent and setting before him an open door, and by warning 02:10:24.250 --> 02:10:28.210 sinners that, continuing in sin, they would find heaven's gate shut against 02:10:28.210 --> 02:10:28.430 them. 02:10:28.430 --> 02:10:32.570 You that know the value of a true Christian minister and the immense 02:10:32.570 --> 02:10:37.170 superiority of the pulpit to the confessional, never forget that for a 02:10:37.170 --> 02:10:40.950 clear light on this point, you are indebted to the Reformation. 02:10:41.970 --> 02:10:45.590 Finally, we owe to the Reformation a right standard of Christian holiness. 02:10:46.530 --> 02:10:50.370 Before the days of Henry VIII, it was held by all that a monastic life 02:10:50.370 --> 02:10:55.430 and vows of celibacy were the only ways to attain eminent sanctity and escape sin. 02:10:56.310 --> 02:11:01.090 Myriads of men and women were continually becoming monks and nuns under the vain 02:11:01.090 --> 02:11:02.630 idea of becoming religious. 02:11:03.510 --> 02:11:08.330 The Reformers cut up by their roots this most fallacious idea by dissolving 02:11:08.330 --> 02:11:10.810 religious houses and dispersing their inhabitants. 02:11:11.650 --> 02:11:15.770 The thing was done roughly, no doubt, and the property of the abbeys and 02:11:15.770 --> 02:11:17.950 monasteries was disgracefully misapplied. 02:11:18.490 --> 02:11:22.670 But the measure was a wise one, and like a severe surgical operation, 02:11:22.670 --> 02:11:25.510 it saved health at the cost of temporary suffering. 02:11:26.930 --> 02:11:31.450 The great scriptural principle was established that true religion is to be 02:11:31.450 --> 02:11:36.590 seen, not retiring into holes and corners and fleeing from difficulties, 02:11:36.950 --> 02:11:42.650 but doing our duty in every position to which God calls us, and manfully resisting 02:11:42.650 --> 02:11:46.830 the devil and overcoming him that true holiness is to be exhibited. 02:11:47.710 --> 02:11:52.090 The Reformers ordered the Ten Commandments to be set up in every church and taught to 02:11:52.090 --> 02:11:56.630 every child, and the duty toward God and our neighbor to be set forth in the old 02:11:56.630 --> 02:11:57.250 catechism. 02:11:58.050 --> 02:12:02.170 They refused to give the slightest encouragement to the plausible notion of 02:12:02.170 --> 02:12:06.070 becoming saints by shrinking and shirking the duties of our station. 02:12:07.090 --> 02:12:11.570 It is not too much to say that in the process of time this new principle had an 02:12:11.570 --> 02:12:15.270 elevating and purifying effect on the whole tone of English morals. 02:12:16.710 --> 02:12:20.190 If England, with all her faults, has a higher standard of daily life than 02:12:20.190 --> 02:12:24.410 most countries, let us never forget that we owe it to the Reformation. 02:12:26.030 --> 02:12:30.850 By the way, a study was done several years ago and I have a copy of it that the 02:12:30.850 --> 02:12:35.590 Protestant nations, when they were reading the Bible, had a much higher moral 02:12:35.590 --> 02:12:38.750 standard than Catholic nations who did not read it. 02:12:39.250 --> 02:12:43.070 And of course, the reason was because of the Reformation. 02:12:45.010 --> 02:12:48.790 Such is the brief and condensed account of the positive blessings which the 02:12:48.790 --> 02:12:50.390 Reformation has conferred upon England. 02:12:51.110 --> 02:12:56.130 I have purposely done little more than name them because they are not bygone 02:12:56.130 --> 02:13:00.430 things like popish superstitions, but living privileges with which we are 02:13:00.430 --> 02:13:01.210 all familiar. 02:13:01.930 --> 02:13:04.070 We bask in the full sunshine of them. 02:13:04.610 --> 02:13:06.490 They are part of the air we breathe. 02:13:07.010 --> 02:13:11.390 They are a rich inheritance which every resident in England unconsciously, 02:13:11.470 --> 02:13:14.430 I fear, in many cases, enjoys to this day. 02:13:15.210 --> 02:13:19.450 We have neither an adequate conception of the evils from which the Reformation freed 02:13:19.450 --> 02:13:22.450 us nor the enormous good which it brought in. 02:13:23.050 --> 02:13:24.710 But this I am bold to assert. 02:13:25.310 --> 02:13:29.590 Whatever England is among the nations of the earth, as a Christian country, 02:13:30.110 --> 02:13:34.370 whatever political liberty we have, whatever lighter freedom in religion, 02:13:34.950 --> 02:13:39.030 whatever purity and happiness there is in our homes, whatever protection and care 02:13:39.030 --> 02:13:42.210 for the poor, we owe it to the Protestant Reformation. 02:13:43.190 --> 02:13:48.050 The Reformation found Englishmen steeped in ignorance and left them in possession 02:13:48.050 --> 02:13:52.490 of knowledge, found them without Bibles and left them with a Bible in every 02:13:52.490 --> 02:13:57.150 church, found them in darkness and left them in comparative light, found them 02:13:57.150 --> 02:14:01.690 priest-ridden and left them enjoying the liberty which Christ bestows, found them 02:14:01.690 --> 02:14:05.670 strangers to the blood of atonement, to faith and grace and holiness, 02:14:05.670 --> 02:14:11.990 and left them, excuse me, with the key to those things in their hands, from them 02:14:11.990 --> 02:14:16.990 blind and left them seen, from them slaves and left them free. 02:14:18.010 --> 02:14:20.270 Forever let us thank God for the Reformation. 02:14:21.050 --> 02:14:25.610 It lighted a candle which ought never to be extinguished or allowed to grow dim. 02:14:26.270 --> 02:14:29.930 And forever let us remember that the Reformation was won for us by the blood of 02:14:29.930 --> 02:14:34.370 the martyrs, quite as much by their preaching and praying, writing and 02:14:34.370 --> 02:14:34.950 legislation. 02:14:34.950 --> 02:14:38.610 It was forged in the fires of Oxford and Smithfield. 02:14:39.350 --> 02:14:44.710 It cost the lives of one archbishop, four bishops, and 280 other men and women 02:14:44.710 --> 02:14:47.310 who died rather than give place to potpourri. 02:14:48.050 --> 02:14:51.650 Shall we in this century talk lightly of the great work they did? 02:14:51.790 --> 02:14:53.450 That's the 19th century, by the way. 02:14:54.370 --> 02:14:56.590 Shall we hold cheaply the privileges they won? 02:14:57.070 --> 02:15:01.150 Shall we entertain for a moment the ideal of forsaking Reformation principles and 02:15:01.150 --> 02:15:02.110 going back to Rome? 02:15:02.810 --> 02:15:09.170 Once more I say, God forbid, the man who counsels such a base apostasy and suicidal 02:15:09.170 --> 02:15:11.910 following must be judicially blind. 02:15:12.610 --> 02:15:14.270 The iron collar has been broken. 02:15:14.750 --> 02:15:16.090 Let us not put it on again. 02:15:16.710 --> 02:15:18.210 The prison has been thrown open. 02:15:18.750 --> 02:15:21.490 Let us not resume the yoke and return to our chains. 02:15:22.630 --> 02:15:28.810 Again, this is an essay by Dr. John Charles Ryle in the late 1800s. 02:15:28.810 --> 02:15:31.190 What do we owe to the Reformation? 02:15:31.970 --> 02:15:33.730 And indeed, this is the truth. 02:15:34.630 --> 02:15:38.770 Many of God's people suffered awful deaths rather than submit to potpourri. 02:15:39.410 --> 02:15:48.550 And I mean impaled on spikes, the horrible tortures of the Inquisition, being buried 02:15:48.550 --> 02:15:54.990 alive to the women, and being burned with fire for the men who merely had a Bible in 02:15:54.990 --> 02:15:55.530 their home. 02:15:56.250 --> 02:16:02.290 We must remember that the very foundation of America, according to President Andrew 02:16:02.290 --> 02:16:04.070 Jackson, was the Bible. 02:16:04.310 --> 02:16:12.430 Because he said, that, sir, the Bible, is the foundation upon which this Republic 02:16:12.430 --> 02:16:12.990 rests. 02:16:14.090 --> 02:16:16.370 So without the Bible, we are not America. 02:16:17.130 --> 02:16:20.310 Without the Bible, we are not a Bible-believing Christian nation. 02:16:21.070 --> 02:16:22.630 And that is what we are today. 02:16:23.170 --> 02:16:29.010 That is what England is today with less than 3% of her people attending any form 02:16:29.010 --> 02:16:31.110 of Protestant church service. 02:16:32.710 --> 02:16:38.150 Well, this leads us now to the Jesuit Order and the founding of the Jesuit 02:16:38.150 --> 02:16:38.510 Order. 02:16:39.390 --> 02:16:45.850 And we shall read of this man, Ignatius Loyola, who was this unbelievable 02:16:45.850 --> 02:16:53.450 founder and who had a tremendous, an iron will that he would never, 02:16:53.830 --> 02:16:57.710 never give up until he accomplished his goal. 02:16:59.030 --> 02:17:03.210 We will read from the great German preacher, the great German historian, 02:17:04.390 --> 02:17:05.670 Theodor Greisinger. 02:17:06.870 --> 02:17:11.090 He was a father historian in many ways to the German people. 02:17:11.970 --> 02:17:16.870 And the title of his book is The Jesuits, A Complete History of Their Open and 02:17:16.870 --> 02:17:21.050 Secret Proceedings from the Foundation of the Order to the Present Time. 02:17:21.750 --> 02:17:27.350 And the present time was 1873, the year after the Jesuits had been 02:17:27.350 --> 02:17:30.230 expelled from Germany. 02:17:31.810 --> 02:17:40.290 We read in this particular work concerning Ignatius Loyola, the founder of the Jesuit 02:17:40.290 --> 02:17:40.650 Order. 02:17:43.770 --> 02:17:45.430 We shall start on the first page. 02:17:46.710 --> 02:17:47.770 Chapter 1. 02:17:47.830 --> 02:17:48.450 Chapter 2. 02:17:49.270 --> 02:17:53.310 The vicissitudes of the new saint of the seven first Jesuits. 02:17:54.390 --> 02:17:58.830 To Jerusalem and Palestine for the conversion of the Turks was now the 02:17:58.830 --> 02:18:00.490 watchword of the converted Loyola. 02:18:01.170 --> 02:18:05.810 And, in fact, he betook himself immediately at the commencement of the 02:18:05.810 --> 02:18:12.690 year 1523 towards Barcelona in order to embark from there first of all to Italy. 02:18:13.790 --> 02:18:19.550 Money had he none, but that he did not distress himself for being already 02:18:19.550 --> 02:18:24.610 accustomed to beg, he soon collected enough not only to keep himself from 02:18:24.610 --> 02:18:30.490 starving, but to pay the passage money to Gaeta and the Neapolitan dominions, 02:18:31.390 --> 02:18:32.150 namely Italy. 02:18:32.970 --> 02:18:36.710 Having arrived there, he proceeded forthwith further towards Rome, 02:18:37.250 --> 02:18:40.510 always begging his way, reaching it on Palm Sunday. 02:18:40.610 --> 02:18:44.630 Remember, this is the Ignatius Loyola who was a noble of Spain, who was wounded in 02:18:44.630 --> 02:18:50.650 the Battle of Pamplona, who had his leg reset with a horrible resetting of the 02:18:50.650 --> 02:18:57.050 French commander whose doctor had reset his leg only to wind up shorter than his 02:18:57.050 --> 02:18:57.530 other leg. 02:18:58.250 --> 02:19:03.210 Therefore, it was this Loyola who had his leg deliberately broken and reset again 02:19:03.210 --> 02:19:06.270 and stretched and pulled, hoping that his leg would be longer. 02:19:07.290 --> 02:19:11.110 And when his leg healed, began to heal, he found out that it was, again, 02:19:11.310 --> 02:19:11.850 too short. 02:19:11.850 --> 02:19:18.150 So what he instructed his servant was to break the leg and stretch it on the rack, 02:19:18.670 --> 02:19:21.450 going through an awful, horrible pain. 02:19:22.510 --> 02:19:29.290 And this Loyola observed that his leg again healed short and he had a perpetual 02:19:29.290 --> 02:19:29.710 limp. 02:19:30.350 --> 02:19:34.630 But this is an example of his determination and it is now reflected in 02:19:34.630 --> 02:19:36.290 his trip to Palestine. 02:19:38.210 --> 02:19:41.670 Having arrived there, he proceeded forthwith further towards Rome, 02:19:41.830 --> 02:19:44.990 always begging his way, reaching it on Palm Sunday. 02:19:46.030 --> 02:19:50.910 His first care, naturally enough, was to perform his devotions in all the 02:19:50.910 --> 02:19:54.170 stations and churches where pilgrims were wont to resort. 02:19:54.850 --> 02:19:59.070 He also had the unspeakable good fortune on Good Friday, the 5th of April, 02:19:59.190 --> 02:20:04.330 to receive along with other pilgrims the blessing of His Holiness, Pope Hadrian VI. 02:20:04.970 --> 02:20:09.230 And according to some of his biographers, he was permitted to kiss the Pope's foot. 02:20:10.070 --> 02:20:16.550 But that as it may, I have only to remark that Inegio continued to support himself 02:20:16.550 --> 02:20:20.990 by begging and that he generally passed the night in a miserable shed. 02:20:21.770 --> 02:20:27.630 On the 12th of April, he prosecuted his journey further towards Venice, 02:20:28.010 --> 02:20:31.330 always being understood on foot and begging his way. 02:20:32.110 --> 02:20:37.910 Although he was now so used to this mode of traveling, he this time nearly fell a 02:20:37.910 --> 02:20:38.550 victim to it. 02:20:38.550 --> 02:20:44.310 As from his miserable appearance, he was universally looked upon as a plague 02:20:45.270 --> 02:20:46.370 stricken person. 02:20:46.910 --> 02:20:52.210 And on that account, not to be allowed to enter any town seeing that the plague at 02:20:52.210 --> 02:20:56.070 the time was raging in a truly unmerciful manner in Upper Italy. 02:20:56.970 --> 02:21:01.490 He was therefore often compelled not only to sleep in the open air, which proved 02:21:01.490 --> 02:21:06.350 very prejudicial to his health, but he also found on this account little 02:21:06.350 --> 02:21:11.950 opportunity of soliciting alms and accordingly at times endured frightful 02:21:11.950 --> 02:21:13.230 sufferings from hunger. 02:21:14.250 --> 02:21:18.830 At last he succeeded in reaching Venice and contrived to introduce himself through 02:21:18.830 --> 02:21:21.310 the gate without detention by the centuries. 02:21:22.150 --> 02:21:27.110 He had no longer any lack of nourishment as many benevolent hearts are everywhere 02:21:27.110 --> 02:21:32.330 to be found and fortune favored him so much that a Spaniard of rank, the Duke 02:21:32.330 --> 02:21:39.050 Andre Guitti obtained for him a free passage in an Italian state galley to 02:21:39.050 --> 02:21:40.390 Jaffa in Palestine. 02:21:41.710 --> 02:21:46.550 It nearly went badly, however, with him and his ship on which he embarked 02:21:46.550 --> 02:21:47.670 on the 14th of July. 02:21:48.310 --> 02:21:52.990 Having plenty of spare time during the voyage, he employed in it preaching better 02:21:52.990 --> 02:21:57.990 manners to the sailors, accustomed as they were to swearing in obscene language, 02:21:58.130 --> 02:22:01.570 and being provoked thereby they nearly threw him into the sea. 02:22:01.570 --> 02:22:06.270 But God and the captain of the ship protected him, and he thus reached his 02:22:06.270 --> 02:22:09.430 intended destination on the 1st of September in safety. 02:22:10.150 --> 02:22:14.510 He was now in Palestine, which he had so long earnestly desired to visit, 02:22:14.990 --> 02:22:19.250 so proceeding to Jerusalem with a caravan of pilgrims he arrived there in good 02:22:19.250 --> 02:22:20.970 condition on the 4th of September. 02:22:21.890 --> 02:22:26.310 But scarcely had he visited the holy places, and performed his devotions to the 02:22:26.310 --> 02:22:30.870 different spots over which Christ had wandered 1,500 years before, and he 02:22:30.870 --> 02:22:34.810 hastened to carry out the great aim he was desirous of accomplishing. 02:22:35.730 --> 02:22:39.910 In other words, he presented himself forthwith to the provincial father of the 02:22:39.910 --> 02:22:44.970 Franciscans, and craved permission to commence his work of preaching and 02:22:44.970 --> 02:22:47.710 converting, namely, the Muslims. 02:22:48.730 --> 02:22:53.310 The provincial entering into conversation with the new laborer in the church fold 02:22:53.310 --> 02:22:58.430 found to his great astonishment that the latter was not only completely ignorant of 02:22:58.430 --> 02:23:03.150 the language and religion of the Turks, but that the same was the case even as 02:23:03.150 --> 02:23:08.070 regards Christianity itself, or Catholicism itself, that it is to say in 02:23:08.070 --> 02:23:11.710 theology, quote-unquote, the knowledge which Christ taught, he was quite a 02:23:11.710 --> 02:23:12.030 tyrant. 02:23:12.630 --> 02:23:17.450 And for such a thoroughly ignorant man, who was also a perfectly vaguely and 02:23:17.450 --> 02:23:21.770 vagabond appearance, to believe himself fit for such a weighty undertaking as the 02:23:21.770 --> 02:23:26.690 education of those who did not believe in Christian or Roman Catholic dogma or 02:23:26.690 --> 02:23:31.650 religion, appeared to the provincial to be the purest nonsense, and so he told 02:23:31.650 --> 02:23:32.970 Ignatius to his face. 02:23:34.030 --> 02:23:38.230 The latter advanced that God might perhaps bring about a miracle and produce such a 02:23:38.230 --> 02:23:42.270 powerful effect upon the Turks that they might understand his preaching in the 02:23:42.270 --> 02:23:43.030 Spanish tongue. 02:23:43.690 --> 02:23:47.630 But disregarding such views, the provincial shook his head, and still the 02:23:47.630 --> 02:23:51.630 more vehemently, and ordered Ignatius to return forthwith to Europe. 02:23:52.410 --> 02:23:59.730 As the latter did not at once acquiesce in this suggestion, he nominated him a beggar 02:23:59.730 --> 02:24:04.190 missionary and under an authority from the Pope to banish all pilgrims who were not 02:24:04.190 --> 02:24:09.810 compliant to his decrees, he had him conveyed on a certain small ship bound for 02:24:09.810 --> 02:24:14.990 Venice where he safely arrived in January 1521, after a four month voyage. 02:24:15.890 --> 02:24:20.970 There ended, in an almost laughable manner, the pilgrimage to Palestine that 02:24:20.970 --> 02:24:25.730 had so far done good that Ignatius obtained a full comprehension of his 02:24:25.730 --> 02:24:30.270 ignorance and became convinced how impossible it was for him to do anything 02:24:30.270 --> 02:24:35.370 as a preacher or converter while he had not previously made himself acquainted 02:24:35.370 --> 02:24:40.890 with the science of Christianity or Roman Catholicism and studied Holy Theology. 02:24:42.010 --> 02:24:47.770 He now had already attained his 33rd year, and had not the slightest idea of even the 02:24:47.770 --> 02:24:51.830 rudiments of the Latin language, moreover, the sole property he possessed 02:24:51.830 --> 02:24:57.930 consisted of the cloak that covered his body, miserable trousers which hardly 02:24:57.930 --> 02:25:03.750 reached to his knees, and a long frock ticking full of holes. 02:25:04.330 --> 02:25:09.490 However, he disregarded all this and resolved to return to Barcelona to 02:25:09.490 --> 02:25:11.110 commence there his studies. 02:25:11.650 --> 02:25:17.690 Quote, God and the Holy Mary, whose knight I am, he thought, will further assist me, 02:25:18.030 --> 02:25:23.050 and I hope that I will with ease collect sufficient by begging to complete my 02:25:23.050 --> 02:25:23.450 studies. 02:25:23.650 --> 02:25:27.010 Indeed, the Jesuits were first called the Knights of the Virgin Mary. 02:25:28.730 --> 02:25:32.510 And of course, the Virgin Mary is in fact the goddess of heaven, the queen of 02:25:32.510 --> 02:25:36.750 heaven, the mother goddess of ancient Babylon and ancient Egypt. 02:25:38.590 --> 02:25:42.950 Sure, he made his way from Venice by Genoa, forthwith he had to encounter many 02:25:42.950 --> 02:25:46.950 dangers before he arrived there, owing to the war that at the time was 02:25:46.950 --> 02:25:51.710 going on between Francis I of France and Charles V, emperor of Germany and king of 02:25:51.710 --> 02:25:52.070 Spain. 02:25:52.990 --> 02:25:57.330 Among other adventures, he was taken prisoner by the Spaniards in suspicion of 02:25:57.330 --> 02:25:59.810 being a spy and treated to the scourge. 02:26:00.470 --> 02:26:03.930 When at length he reached Genoa, he there had the good fortune to be 02:26:03.930 --> 02:26:08.230 provided by the commander of the Spanish galleys, a former acquaintance, 02:26:08.670 --> 02:26:14.090 Rodrigo Portundo, with a free passage upon a ship, and he arrived safe and sound at 02:26:14.090 --> 02:26:16.010 Barcelona without further mishap. 02:26:16.870 --> 02:26:20.310 This shows the mettle of Ignatius Loyola. 02:26:20.990 --> 02:26:27.450 His utter determination to go to Palestine and to convert the Turks, in fact to take 02:26:27.450 --> 02:26:32.250 Jerusalem from the Muslims, and this was one of the foremost purposes for the 02:26:32.250 --> 02:26:34.150 establishment of the Jesuit order. 02:26:35.150 --> 02:26:40.450 In addition to its establishment being that it was to be the counter-reformation, 02:26:41.030 --> 02:26:45.010 destroy the Protestant Reformation, destroy everything that had ever arisen 02:26:45.010 --> 02:26:50.630 out of the Protestant Reformation, including a Bible in your house and a 02:26:50.630 --> 02:26:53.870 written constitution to limit the powers of your government. 02:26:54.330 --> 02:27:00.310 Those two important, absolutely critical things to western civilization that 02:27:00.310 --> 02:27:04.530 Jesuits have completely and totally determined to overthrow. 02:27:05.290 --> 02:27:09.610 They have succeeded in America in overthrowing the Reformation Bible by 02:27:09.610 --> 02:27:13.850 discrediting the King James Bible, and they have succeeded in making this 02:27:13.850 --> 02:27:19.710 nation a pagan nation that is not allowed to have the Bible in any public form. 02:27:20.350 --> 02:27:23.590 The Ten Commandments have been deliberately removed from all public 02:27:23.590 --> 02:27:29.070 arenas and we now find ourselves just as pagan as the Soviet Union. 02:27:29.530 --> 02:27:32.010 All because of the works of the Jesuits. 02:27:32.770 --> 02:27:37.650 Having succeeded in those two areas, they are now moving in on the destruction 02:27:37.650 --> 02:27:43.070 of western civilization and the creation of the New World Order, which is in fact a 02:27:43.070 --> 02:27:47.270 reversion back to the Old World Order, which was the Dark Ages. 02:27:48.310 --> 02:27:55.630 I now shall read a few pages from Book 15 of the History of Protestantism by the 02:27:55.630 --> 02:27:59.550 wonderful English historian James A. 02:27:59.670 --> 02:27:59.950 Wiley. 02:28:00.830 --> 02:28:08.570 In his second volume of this history, in his 15th book, we have 54 pages of the 02:28:08.570 --> 02:28:14.690 most succinct description, purpose, and history of the Jesuit order I believe 02:28:14.690 --> 02:28:15.290 ever written. 02:28:16.090 --> 02:28:21.410 These 54 pages have been included at the end of my Vatican Assassins 3, 02:28:21.590 --> 02:28:26.610 3rd edition, at the end of the book and are key and very important. 02:28:27.990 --> 02:28:32.170 Well, we shall read one paragraph and then we shall close. 02:28:34.370 --> 02:28:38.770 Protestantism had marshaled its spiritual forces a second time, placing itself at 02:28:38.770 --> 02:28:42.610 the heart of Christendom at a point where three great empires met. 02:28:43.170 --> 02:28:47.330 It was laboring with redoubled vigor to propagate itself on all sides. 02:28:48.550 --> 02:28:54.510 It was expelling from into the air of the world the ancient superstition born of 02:28:54.510 --> 02:28:59.190 paganism and Judaism, which like an opaque veil had darkened the human mind. 02:28:59.190 --> 02:29:04.470 A new light was breaking from the eyes and a new light stirring the souls of men. 02:29:05.930 --> 02:29:10.430 We shall close this moment and redo and regain our study tomorrow evening. 02:29:11.390 --> 02:29:12.210 This is Eric Johnson. 02:29:12.790 --> 02:29:13.630 God bless. 02:29:25.340 --> 02:29:29.520 If you'd like to get a copy of this program, there are a few ways that we can 02:29:29.520 --> 02:29:29.960 help you.

02:30:48.050 --> 02:30:50.830 And we begin the reading of Wiley's work. 02:30:51.490 --> 02:30:55.210 Chapter 1, Book 15, On the Jesuits. 02:30:56.490 --> 02:31:01.210 It was further clear that armies would never affect the overthrow of 02:31:01.210 --> 02:31:01.930 Protestantism. 02:31:02.690 --> 02:31:09.470 The serious strength of Popish Europe had been put forth to crush it, but all in 02:31:09.470 --> 02:31:09.750 vain. 02:31:10.650 --> 02:31:15.570 Protestantism had risen only the stronger from the blows which it was hoped would 02:31:15.570 --> 02:31:16.230 overwhelm it. 02:31:16.750 --> 02:31:21.190 It was plain that other weapons must be forged, and other armies mustered, 02:31:21.650 --> 02:31:25.770 than those which Charles and Francis had been accustomed to lead into the field. 02:31:26.650 --> 02:31:32.250 It was now that the Jesuit Corps was embodied, and it must be confessed that 02:31:32.250 --> 02:31:37.630 these new soldiers did more than all the armies of France and Spain to stem the 02:31:37.630 --> 02:31:44.030 tide of Protestant success, and bind victory once more to the banners of Rome. 02:31:44.730 --> 02:31:50.810 This is most important because the Jesuit Order did more to set back the Protestant 02:31:50.810 --> 02:31:55.910 Reformation than any other force of Europe, including all the armies of 02:31:55.910 --> 02:31:59.330 Charles V, and succeeding Holy Roman Emperors. 02:32:00.550 --> 02:32:02.330 The Jesuits exist today. 02:32:03.430 --> 02:32:08.250 Their very purpose is for the destruction of the Reformation, and the bringing of 02:32:08.250 --> 02:32:09.770 the world back to the Dark Ages. 02:32:10.650 --> 02:32:13.890 And this should be taught in every Bible-believing church. 02:32:15.230 --> 02:32:17.550 We continue with the works of Wiley. 02:32:19.150 --> 02:32:25.570 We remember what Loyola went through, his suffering as a soldier, his trip to 02:32:25.570 --> 02:32:26.130 Jerusalem. 02:32:27.310 --> 02:32:29.190 And what do we have here? 02:32:29.530 --> 02:32:35.190 The author then says, The war in which Loyola and his nine companions enrolled 02:32:35.190 --> 02:32:41.990 themselves when, on the 15th of August, 1534, they made their vow in the church of 02:32:41.990 --> 02:32:48.530 Montmartre was to be waged against the Saracens of the East. 02:32:49.570 --> 02:32:50.310 That means the Muslims. 02:32:51.030 --> 02:32:56.710 They acted so far on their original design as to proceed to Venice, where they 02:32:56.710 --> 02:33:00.310 learned that their project was, meanwhile, impractical. 02:33:01.050 --> 02:33:06.090 A war which had just broken out between the Republic and the Porti had closed the 02:33:06.090 --> 02:33:06.790 gates of Asia. 02:33:07.590 --> 02:33:12.450 They took this as an intimidation, as an intimation, that the field of their 02:33:12.450 --> 02:33:14.830 operations was to be in the Western world. 02:33:15.890 --> 02:33:19.190 Returning on their path, they now directed their steps towards Rome. 02:33:20.110 --> 02:33:23.610 In every town through which they passed on their way to the Eternal City, 02:33:24.090 --> 02:33:28.650 they left behind them an immense reputation for sanctity by their labors in 02:33:28.650 --> 02:33:32.470 the hospitals and their earliest addresses to the populace on the streets. 02:33:33.250 --> 02:33:37.390 As they drew nigh to Rome, and the hearts of some of his companions were beginning 02:33:37.390 --> 02:33:42.010 to despond, Loyola was cheered by a vision in which Christ appeared and said to him, 02:33:42.530 --> 02:33:44.030 In Rome will I be gracious. 02:33:45.210 --> 02:33:49.850 The hopes this vision inspired were not to be disappointed. 02:33:50.710 --> 02:33:53.890 Entering the gates of the capital of Christendom, or capital of Roman 02:33:53.890 --> 02:33:59.050 Catholicism, and throwing themselves at the feet of Paul III, they met a most 02:33:59.050 --> 02:34:00.010 gracious reception. 02:34:00.830 --> 02:34:06.410 The Pope hailed their order of assistance as most opportune. 02:34:06.710 --> 02:34:11.070 Mighty dangers in that hour threatened the Papacy, and with the half of Europe in 02:34:11.070 --> 02:34:14.830 revolt, that is the Protestant Reformation, the northern half of Europe 02:34:14.830 --> 02:34:17.830 was breaking away from the Pope's temporal power. 02:34:18.990 --> 02:34:22.850 With the half of Europe in revolt, and the old monkish orders become 02:34:22.850 --> 02:34:28.990 incapable, this new and unexpected age seemed sent by Heaven. 02:34:29.550 --> 02:34:33.750 The rules and constitution of the new order were drafted and ultimately approved 02:34:33.750 --> 02:34:34.410 by the Pope. 02:34:35.090 --> 02:34:40.130 Two peculiarities in the constitution of the prepared order specifically 02:34:40.130 --> 02:34:43.530 recommended it in the eyes of Paul III. 02:34:44.570 --> 02:34:47.830 The first was its vow of unconditional obedience. 02:34:49.330 --> 02:34:50.770 Unconditional obedience. 02:34:51.530 --> 02:34:54.830 The society swore to obey the Pope as an army does its general. 02:34:55.530 --> 02:35:01.770 It was not canonical, but military obedience, which its members offered him. 02:35:02.610 --> 02:35:06.930 They would go to wheresoever place, and whatsoever time, and on whatsoever 02:35:06.930 --> 02:35:09.130 errand, he should be pleased to order them. 02:35:09.570 --> 02:35:13.850 They were in short to be not so much monks as soldiers. 02:35:14.610 --> 02:35:18.630 The second peculiarity was that their services were to be wholly gratuitous. 02:35:19.230 --> 02:35:22.210 Never would they ask so much as a penny from the papal seat. 02:35:23.110 --> 02:35:27.850 It was resolved that the new order should bear the name of the company of Jesus. 02:35:29.430 --> 02:35:33.130 Loyola modestly declined the honor of being its founder. 02:35:33.790 --> 02:35:39.430 Christ himself, he affirmed, had dictated to him its constitution in his cave at 02:35:39.430 --> 02:35:40.390 Manresa. 02:35:40.970 --> 02:35:49.550 He was its real founder, whose name then could be so appropriately as his. 02:35:50.210 --> 02:35:55.990 The bull constituting it was issued on the 27th of September 1540, and was entitled 02:35:55.990 --> 02:36:04.490 Regimini militantis ecclesiasti, and bore that the persons it enrolled into 02:36:04.490 --> 02:36:09.310 an army were to bear, quote, the standard of the cross, to wield the arms of God, 02:36:09.630 --> 02:36:14.130 to serve the Holy Lord, and the Roman Pontiff, his vicar on earth, unquote. 02:36:15.590 --> 02:36:21.710 This is the regiment, the militant regiment of the church. 02:36:22.170 --> 02:36:22.930 They are warriors. 02:36:23.510 --> 02:36:24.590 They are soldiers. 02:36:25.550 --> 02:36:28.570 They are, in their own minds, invincible. 02:36:29.330 --> 02:36:31.670 They have a 15-year education. 02:36:32.590 --> 02:36:37.090 And when they are finished, they will go anywhere and do anything under the guise 02:36:37.090 --> 02:36:39.790 of holy obedience, which is absolute obedience. 02:36:40.610 --> 02:36:45.090 And they will labor at their task until death if ordered. 02:36:45.990 --> 02:36:51.890 In the Jesuit, you have the perfect, satanic completion of a man who has 02:36:51.890 --> 02:36:54.970 managed to control his flesh. 02:36:56.050 --> 02:37:02.590 Exercising, for the most part, complete and total control, self control 02:37:02.590 --> 02:37:04.430 and composure. 02:37:04.650 --> 02:37:12.670 In every situation, it is the Jesuit who is able to counter and fight down the 02:37:12.670 --> 02:37:17.790 Lord's Protestant Reformation by his satanic power given to the order directly 02:37:17.790 --> 02:37:21.070 by the devil for the purpose of overthrowing the Reformation. 02:37:22.630 --> 02:37:24.670 But Wiley continues... 02:37:25.090 --> 02:37:30.050 An army to conquer the world Loyola was forming, but he knew that nothing is 02:37:30.050 --> 02:37:34.370 stronger than its weakest part, and therefore the soundness of every link, 02:37:34.910 --> 02:37:40.650 the thorough discipline and tried fidelity of every soldier in this mighty host was 02:37:40.650 --> 02:37:42.210 with him an essential point. 02:37:42.930 --> 02:37:47.910 That could be secured only by making each individual, before enrolling himself, 02:37:48.430 --> 02:37:54.410 pass through an ordeal that should sift and try and harden him to the utmost. 02:37:55.510 --> 02:38:00.230 But first, the company of Jesus had to elect a head that dignity was offered to 02:38:00.230 --> 02:38:00.610 Loyola. 02:38:01.230 --> 02:38:04.990 He modestly declined the post as Julius Caesar did the diadem. 02:38:05.670 --> 02:38:10.190 After four days spent in prayer and penance, the disciples returned and humbly 02:38:10.190 --> 02:38:11.970 supplicated him to be their chief. 02:38:12.910 --> 02:38:16.830 Ignatius, viewing this as an intimation of the will of God, consented. 02:38:17.470 --> 02:38:19.430 He was the first general of the order. 02:38:19.850 --> 02:38:25.490 Few royal scepters bring with them such an amount of real power as this election 02:38:25.490 --> 02:38:26.790 bestowed on Loyola. 02:38:27.410 --> 02:38:32.210 The day would come when the tiara itself would bow before that yet mightier 02:38:32.210 --> 02:38:37.070 authority which was represented by the cap of the general of the Jesuits. 02:38:38.410 --> 02:38:45.530 So, we have Loyola becoming an absolute monarch over the Jesuit order and 02:38:45.530 --> 02:38:47.850 ultimately over the papacy. 02:38:51.270 --> 02:38:55.670 While I continue this, let us next attend to the organization of the society. 02:38:56.130 --> 02:38:58.670 The Jesuit monarchy covers the globe. 02:38:59.470 --> 02:39:04.450 At its head, as we have said, is a sovereign who rules over all, but is 02:39:04.450 --> 02:39:06.090 himself ruled over by no one. 02:39:06.930 --> 02:39:13.790 First comes six grand divisions, termed assistances, satrapies, 02:39:14.250 --> 02:39:14.870 or princetoms. 02:39:15.890 --> 02:39:19.310 By the way, today there are ten assistances, and there is an American 02:39:19.310 --> 02:39:23.590 assistant to the Jesuit Superior General Peter Hans Kolvenbach. 02:39:24.430 --> 02:39:30.630 It is this American Jesuit assistant who is the most powerful American Jesuit and 02:39:30.630 --> 02:39:34.550 one of the most powerful Jesuits in the world, and he too is a general, 02:39:35.030 --> 02:39:36.430 but he is not the Superior General. 02:39:39.850 --> 02:39:44.150 These comprehend the space stretching from the Indies to the Mediterranean, 02:39:44.950 --> 02:39:49.010 more particularly India, Spain and Portugal, Germany and France, Italy and 02:39:49.010 --> 02:39:50.950 Sicily, Poland and Lithuania. 02:39:51.850 --> 02:39:54.590 Outside this area, the Jesuits have established missions. 02:39:55.570 --> 02:40:00.290 The heads of these six divisions act as coadjutors to their general. 02:40:00.910 --> 02:40:02.730 They are his staff, the cabinet. 02:40:03.530 --> 02:40:08.270 The Jesuit general has a staff of assistants to him, and a confessor, 02:40:08.710 --> 02:40:09.550 and an advisor. 02:40:09.550 --> 02:40:15.650 So the Jesuit general is taking advice from the scriptures, by employing the 02:40:15.650 --> 02:40:18.870 maxim, in the multitude of counsel there is safety. 02:40:20.290 --> 02:40:21.050 Continue... 02:40:21.050 --> 02:40:24.830 These six great divisions are subdivided into 37 provinces. 02:40:25.050 --> 02:40:26.770 Today there are 85 provinces. 02:40:27.750 --> 02:40:31.010 Over each province is placed a chief, termed a provincial. 02:40:31.610 --> 02:40:37.310 In America there are 10 provincials, corresponding to our 10 regional 02:40:37.310 --> 02:40:37.690 governments. 02:40:37.690 --> 02:40:42.730 The provinces are again subdivided into a variety of houses or establishments. 02:40:43.330 --> 02:40:47.090 First come the houses of the professed, provided over by their provost. 02:40:47.610 --> 02:40:52.070 Next come the colleges or houses of the novices and scholars, presided over by 02:40:52.070 --> 02:40:53.170 their rector or superior. 02:40:53.850 --> 02:40:57.790 Where these cannot be established, residences are erected for the 02:40:57.790 --> 02:41:02.170 accommodation of the priests, who preambulate the district, preaching and 02:41:02.170 --> 02:41:03.030 hearing confessions. 02:41:03.850 --> 02:41:07.250 And by the way, the confessional is nothing more than a system of 02:41:07.250 --> 02:41:08.930 international espionage. 02:41:09.590 --> 02:41:11.210 These men have no power to forgive sins. 02:41:11.870 --> 02:41:15.030 They are gathering information for the benefit of the Jesuit general, 02:41:15.530 --> 02:41:19.930 the fruit of the quest to make the Pope the universal monarch of the world, 02:41:20.510 --> 02:41:25.970 and thus is their phrase, Ad Majorem De Gloriam, or for the greater glory of God. 02:41:27.230 --> 02:41:31.670 And lastly may be mentioned, mission houses, in which Jesuits live unnoticed as 02:41:31.670 --> 02:41:36.410 secular clergy, but seeking by all possible means to promote the interests of 02:41:36.410 --> 02:41:37.010 the society. 02:41:38.430 --> 02:41:43.410 From his chamber in Rome, the eye of the general surveys the world of Jesuitism to 02:41:43.410 --> 02:41:44.610 its farthest bounds. 02:41:45.230 --> 02:41:47.930 There is nothing done in it, which he does not see. 02:41:48.450 --> 02:41:50.930 There is nothing spoken in it, which he does not hear. 02:41:51.710 --> 02:41:56.170 It becomes as to note the means by which this almost superhuman intelligence is 02:41:56.170 --> 02:41:56.590 acquired. 02:41:57.550 --> 02:42:02.070 Remember now, the Black Pope controls this international intelligence community, 02:42:02.530 --> 02:42:05.670 composed of all the intelligence agencies of the earth. 02:42:06.730 --> 02:42:13.370 Every year, a list of the houses and members of the society, with the name, 02:42:13.750 --> 02:42:17.690 talents, virtues, and failings of each, is laid before the general. 02:42:18.370 --> 02:42:23.110 In addition to the annual report, every one of the 37 provincials must send 02:42:23.110 --> 02:42:26.290 him a report monthly of the state of his province. 02:42:26.850 --> 02:42:30.770 This is, by the way, the political, as well as the spiritual state of the 02:42:30.770 --> 02:42:31.250 province. 02:42:31.690 --> 02:42:36.350 Can you imagine what the 10 provincials in America do when they send their monthly 02:42:36.350 --> 02:42:39.830 report to the Jesuit general on the state of things in the United States? 02:42:41.050 --> 02:42:45.110 He must inform him minutely of its political and ecclesiastical conditions. 02:42:45.970 --> 02:42:49.850 Every superior of a college must report once every three months. 02:42:49.970 --> 02:42:54.690 This means Georgetown University and Fordham University, being two of the 28 02:42:54.690 --> 02:42:57.210 major universities that Jesuits control in this country. 02:42:57.210 --> 02:43:02.250 The heads of houses of residence, the heads of novitiates, must do the same. 02:43:02.930 --> 02:43:07.850 In short, from every quarter of his vast dominions come a monthly and a tri-monthly 02:43:07.850 --> 02:43:08.250 report. 02:43:09.090 --> 02:43:14.430 If the matter reported on has reference to persons outside the society, the 02:43:14.430 --> 02:43:18.770 Constitution is direct that the provincials and superiors shall write to 02:43:18.770 --> 02:43:19.990 the general in cipher. 02:43:20.290 --> 02:43:21.150 That means code. 02:43:21.650 --> 02:43:22.690 Secret code. 02:43:23.870 --> 02:43:27.230 Such precautions are taken against enemies, says M.G. 02:43:27.290 --> 02:43:28.490 Shallois, who was a Frenchman. 02:43:29.230 --> 02:43:34.050 Is the system of the Jesuits inimical to all governments? 02:43:35.010 --> 02:43:38.750 Thus to the general of the Jesuits, thus to the general of the Jesuits, 02:43:38.870 --> 02:43:40.870 the world lies naked and open. 02:43:41.430 --> 02:43:47.730 He sees by a thousand eyes, he hears by a thousand ears, and when he has a behest to 02:43:47.730 --> 02:43:53.390 execute, he can select the fittest agent from an ennualable host, all of whom are 02:43:53.390 --> 02:43:54.450 ready to do his bidding. 02:43:55.810 --> 02:44:00.230 One of the Jesuit generals says, we even have martyrs for our purposes. 02:44:01.010 --> 02:44:05.290 The past history, the good and the evil qualities of every member of his society, 02:44:05.710 --> 02:44:09.630 his talents, his dispositions, his inclinations, his tastes, his secret 02:44:09.630 --> 02:44:15.230 thoughts, have all been strictly examined, minutely chronicled, and laid before the 02:44:15.230 --> 02:44:15.990 eye of the general. 02:44:16.690 --> 02:44:22.330 It is the same as if he were present in person, and had seen and conversed with 02:44:22.330 --> 02:44:22.490 him. 02:44:23.190 --> 02:44:27.590 All ranks, from the nobleman, to the day laborer, all trades, from the opulent 02:44:27.590 --> 02:44:33.450 banker, to the shoemaker and porter, all professions, from the stole dignitary 02:44:33.450 --> 02:44:38.590 and the learned professor, to the cowled mendicant, all grades of literary men, 02:44:38.890 --> 02:44:43.870 from the philosopher, the mathematician, and the historian, to the schoolmaster and 02:44:43.870 --> 02:44:49.030 the reporter, on the provincial newspaper, are enrolled in the society. 02:44:49.030 --> 02:44:51.410 These are called Jesuit coadjutors. 02:44:51.950 --> 02:44:53.550 America is full of them. 02:44:55.690 --> 02:45:01.130 Marshaled in a continued attendance before their chief stand his host, so large in 02:45:01.130 --> 02:45:02.950 numbers and so various in gifts. 02:45:03.890 --> 02:45:08.830 At his word they go, and at his word they come, speeding over seas and mountains, 02:45:09.290 --> 02:45:13.130 across frozen steppes, or burning plains on his errand. 02:45:13.770 --> 02:45:17.370 Pestilence or battle, or death may lie in his path. 02:45:17.750 --> 02:45:19.850 The Jesuit's obedience is not less prompt. 02:45:20.670 --> 02:45:23.550 Selecting one, the general sends him to the royal cabinet. 02:45:24.050 --> 02:45:27.410 Making choice of another, he opens him the door of parliament. 02:45:28.210 --> 02:45:31.790 A third he enrolls in a political club, like the Jacobins. 02:45:32.130 --> 02:45:37.530 A fourth he places in the pulpit of a church, whose creed he professes that he 02:45:37.530 --> 02:45:38.290 may betray it. 02:45:38.910 --> 02:45:43.450 A fifth he commands to mingle in the saloons of the low peoples. 02:45:44.190 --> 02:45:47.870 A sixth he sends to act his part in the evangelical conference. 02:45:48.190 --> 02:45:52.730 A seventh he sits beside the domestic hearth. 02:45:53.390 --> 02:45:57.650 And an eighth he sends afar off to barbarous tribes, where, speaking a 02:45:57.650 --> 02:46:02.490 strange tongue and wearing a rough garment, he executes amidst hardships and 02:46:02.490 --> 02:46:05.090 perils the will of his superior. 02:46:05.830 --> 02:46:11.050 There is no disguise which the Jesuit will not wear, nor art he will not employ, 02:46:11.470 --> 02:46:17.210 nor motive he will not feign, no creed he will not profess, provided only he can 02:46:17.210 --> 02:46:22.810 acquit himself as a true soldier of the Jesuit army and accomplish the work on 02:46:22.810 --> 02:46:24.010 which he has been set forth. 02:46:24.570 --> 02:46:29.330 We have men, exclaimed the general exultingly, as he glanced over the long 02:46:29.330 --> 02:46:33.070 roll of philosophers, orators, statesmen, and scholars who stood before 02:46:33.070 --> 02:46:37.330 him, ready to serve him in the state or in the church, in the camp or in the school, 02:46:37.690 --> 02:46:38.670 at home or abroad. 02:46:39.270 --> 02:46:42.470 We have men for martyrdom, if they be required. 02:46:43.970 --> 02:46:46.830 Men like Captain Smith of the Titanic. 02:46:50.050 --> 02:46:54.990 We go on in Wiley's work and read a bit more. 02:46:55.350 --> 02:46:59.110 We have traced to some length the long and severe discipline which every member must 02:46:59.110 --> 02:47:03.710 undergo before being admitted into the secret class by that way of eminence 02:47:03.710 --> 02:47:05.250 constitute the society. 02:47:06.030 --> 02:47:10.710 Before arriving on the threshold of the inner circle of Jesuitism, three times has 02:47:10.710 --> 02:47:13.430 the candidate passed through that terrible ordeal. 02:47:14.030 --> 02:47:18.390 First as a novice, secondly as a scholar, thirdly as a coadjutor. 02:47:19.650 --> 02:47:25.290 Is his training held to be complete when he is admitted among the professed? 02:47:25.850 --> 02:47:26.290 No. 02:47:26.750 --> 02:47:30.670 A fourth time must he undergo the same dreadful process. 02:47:31.430 --> 02:47:39.450 He is thrown back again into the crucible and kept kept amid his fires, till pride 02:47:39.450 --> 02:47:44.850 and obstinacy and self-will and love of ease, till judgment, soul, and conscience 02:47:44.850 --> 02:47:49.310 have all been purged out of him, and then he comes forth fully refined, 02:47:49.670 --> 02:47:55.970 completely tempered and hardened, a vessel fully fitted for the use of his 02:47:55.970 --> 02:48:00.870 general, prepared to execute with a conscience that never remonstrates his 02:48:00.870 --> 02:48:06.050 most terrible command, and to undertake with a will that never rebels the most 02:48:06.050 --> 02:48:09.490 difficult and dangerous enterprises he may assign him. 02:48:09.970 --> 02:48:13.430 In the words of an eloquent writer, talk of drilling and discipline. 02:48:13.850 --> 02:48:17.890 Why, the drilling and the discipline which gave to Alexander the men that marched in 02:48:17.890 --> 02:48:22.890 triumph from Macedon to this Indus, to Caesar, the men that marched in triumph 02:48:22.890 --> 02:48:27.490 from Rome to the wilds of Caledonia, to Hannibal, the men that marched in 02:48:27.490 --> 02:48:31.290 triumph from Carthage to Rome, to Napoleon, the men whose achievements 02:48:31.290 --> 02:48:35.090 surpassed in brilliance the united glories of the soldiers of Macedon, of Carthage, 02:48:35.090 --> 02:48:39.530 and of Rome, and to Wellington, the men who smote into the dust the very 02:48:39.530 --> 02:48:41.210 flower of Napoleon's chivalry. 02:48:41.670 --> 02:48:46.510 Why, the drilling and the discipline of all these combined cannot, in point of 02:48:46.510 --> 02:48:51.630 stern, rigid, and protracted severity for a moment, be compared to the drilling and 02:48:51.630 --> 02:48:56.430 discipline which fitted and molded men for becoming full members of the militant 02:48:56.430 --> 02:49:06.050 institute of the Jesuits." Such Loyola saw was the core that was needed to confront 02:49:06.050 --> 02:49:10.610 the armies of Protestantism and turn back the advancing tide of light and liberty. 02:49:11.750 --> 02:49:15.250 By the way, the United States Marine Corps is patterned after the Jesuit Order. 02:49:15.870 --> 02:49:20.890 One of the things they do in the Corps in basic training is they break your will 02:49:20.890 --> 02:49:26.770 into the dust, so that they can remold you and make you into an absolute obedient 02:49:26.770 --> 02:49:32.830 slave to your superior, and that is why the Marine Corps is patterned after the 02:49:32.830 --> 02:49:33.950 Jesuit Corps. 02:49:35.670 --> 02:49:40.730 Continuing on with Wiley, we shall have a few more words. 02:49:41.930 --> 02:49:45.990 Now we shall go to Thompson, just for a few minutes, in his Footprints of the 02:49:45.990 --> 02:49:46.390 Jesuits. 02:49:47.330 --> 02:49:52.850 He says, concerning the Jesuits, "...their society is so united and compact 02:49:52.850 --> 02:49:54.410 that its ranks cannot be broken. 02:49:54.410 --> 02:49:59.490 They are everywhere the same, moved by a common impulse under the dictation of 02:49:59.490 --> 02:50:00.450 their general in Rome. 02:50:00.990 --> 02:50:04.010 They are the deadly enemies of civil and religious liberty. 02:50:04.590 --> 02:50:08.110 Nothing that stands in their way can become so sacred as to escape their 02:50:08.110 --> 02:50:08.450 vengeance. 02:50:09.590 --> 02:50:13.270 Protestantism has borne no fruits to which they have ever been reconciled. 02:50:13.950 --> 02:50:17.150 They consider the Reformation which gave birth to it to have been criminal 02:50:17.150 --> 02:50:22.210 resistance to the only rightful authority upon Earth, that which proceeds from 02:50:22.210 --> 02:50:23.610 church and state combined. 02:50:24.310 --> 02:50:28.570 They believe that the condition of mankind during the Middle Ages, staggering under 02:50:28.570 --> 02:50:32.170 the weight of feudal oppression, was preferable to modern progress and 02:50:32.170 --> 02:50:36.930 enlightenment, that human happiness would be promoted by the return to that period, 02:50:37.330 --> 02:50:40.810 that the political right of self-government by the people cannot be 02:50:40.810 --> 02:50:44.470 set up against the higher right of papal and monarchial power, and that the 02:50:44.470 --> 02:50:48.810 progress of the advancing nations is delusive and unsubstantial, and that 02:50:48.810 --> 02:50:52.990 institutions which guarantee civil and religious freedom, if not arrested by some 02:50:52.990 --> 02:50:57.450 coercive power strong enough to put an end to them, will lead, through heresy, 02:50:57.910 --> 02:50:59.610 to social ruin and desolation. 02:51:00.310 --> 02:51:04.830 If at the period of the Reformation the society had not been established for the 02:51:04.830 --> 02:51:09.690 express purpose of counteracting its influence, a knowledge of the difference 02:51:09.690 --> 02:51:14.350 between primitive Christianity and the prevailing dogmas might have led to such 02:51:14.350 --> 02:51:17.650 reforms as would have reconciled Christians to dwell together in peace and 02:51:17.650 --> 02:51:18.110 concord. 02:51:18.110 --> 02:51:22.650 But when a dove should have been sent forth bearing the olive branch of 02:51:22.650 --> 02:51:27.250 Christian charity, the society sprang from the brain of a disappointed military 02:51:27.250 --> 02:51:31.490 adventurer and began at once to scatter the seeds of strife and discord. 02:51:32.330 --> 02:51:35.730 Almost from the beginning it has been a disturber of the peace of nations, 02:51:36.450 --> 02:51:41.030 suffering only such as have bestowed patronage upon it to escape its 02:51:41.030 --> 02:51:42.910 maledictions and the plottings. 02:51:43.730 --> 02:51:47.750 The members of the society are numerous and powerful in the United States. 02:51:48.330 --> 02:51:52.510 They are constantly increasing, mainly by accessions from their drilled 02:51:52.510 --> 02:51:57.610 and disciplined companions in Europe, but also by conversions of unsuspecting 02:51:57.610 --> 02:52:02.790 young men who are seduced by their vain and supercilious pretensions as educators. 02:52:03.710 --> 02:52:08.350 They are, as they have always been, selfish and vindictive, restless under 02:52:08.350 --> 02:52:10.970 opposition, and compromising in nothing. 02:52:11.490 --> 02:52:16.050 They have neither country, nor homes, nor families, nor friendships beyond the 02:52:16.050 --> 02:52:19.490 limits of their order, none of the affections of a heart which give them 02:52:19.490 --> 02:52:21.930 charm to life and social intercourse. 02:52:22.430 --> 02:52:27.970 Being required to abandon all these and fit themselves for uninquiring obedience 02:52:27.970 --> 02:52:32.210 to their general, whose commands, whether right or wrong, good or bad, 02:52:32.410 --> 02:52:37.030 they have solemnly vowed to execute without the least regard for consequences. 02:52:37.950 --> 02:52:42.450 Having persistently refused to become reconciled to the forms and methods of 02:52:42.450 --> 02:52:47.770 Christian civilization which prevail among our Protestant population, once in 02:52:47.770 --> 02:52:52.170 Protestant America, they employ all the resources they can command in endeavoring 02:52:52.170 --> 02:52:52.970 to arrest them. 02:52:53.470 --> 02:52:56.990 They insist the church and state shall be united wheresoever they are separate, 02:52:57.390 --> 02:53:01.850 and that the basis of such union shall be the subordination of the state to the 02:53:01.850 --> 02:53:02.210 church. 02:53:02.950 --> 02:53:07.630 Self-government by the people is held by them to be violative of the divine law, 02:53:07.930 --> 02:53:12.110 and on that account may rightfully be resisted as heretical, when its overthrow 02:53:12.110 --> 02:53:12.850 can be assured. 02:53:13.650 --> 02:53:17.530 They will allow no rights to exist in either states, peoples, or individuals 02:53:17.530 --> 02:53:21.930 against what they consider the prerogatives of their society as defined 02:53:21.930 --> 02:53:26.530 by their general, who, in their estimation, possesses the divine right to 02:53:26.530 --> 02:53:28.810 enlarge or contract them at his own pleasure. 02:53:29.630 --> 02:53:33.610 There must be no limitation to the power and independence of the Pope, either in 02:53:33.610 --> 02:53:36.830 the spiritual or temporal domain, except where the interests of their 02:53:36.830 --> 02:53:38.050 society command otherwise. 02:53:38.870 --> 02:53:44.130 And they must be full, absolute, unquestioned to the extent defined by 02:53:44.130 --> 02:53:44.610 himself. 02:53:45.330 --> 02:53:49.990 His liberty must be such that he may, at his own discretion, curtail the 02:53:49.990 --> 02:53:51.250 liberties of all others. 02:53:51.690 --> 02:53:55.890 His spiritual sovereignty must include whatsoever he shall embrace within it. 02:53:56.330 --> 02:53:59.770 Neither the existence nor the extent of his sovereignty must be brought in 02:53:59.770 --> 02:54:01.630 question before any human tribunal. 02:54:02.310 --> 02:54:03.170 That means he is a sovereign. 02:54:03.670 --> 02:54:07.730 But he alone shall define it, together with the character of the obedience he 02:54:07.730 --> 02:54:08.370 shall exact. 02:54:09.030 --> 02:54:13.010 And if, in the course of the painful economy, he should ever find it necessary 02:54:13.010 --> 02:54:17.870 to hold in one hand emblems of harmony and peace, this restless and uncompromising 02:54:18.410 --> 02:54:22.810 society stands always ready to place the rod of chastisement in the other. 02:54:23.810 --> 02:54:27.590 The conflict of opinions, therefore, in which the Protestant people of the 02:54:27.590 --> 02:54:31.850 United States find themselves engaged is not of their inviting. 02:54:32.390 --> 02:54:34.410 They are unwilling parties to it. 02:54:35.470 --> 02:54:39.430 Because of this, a sense of both duty and security demands that the history and 02:54:39.430 --> 02:54:43.290 character of this skilled and powerful adversary, alien birth and growth and 02:54:43.290 --> 02:54:44.870 sentiment, should be understood. 02:54:45.910 --> 02:54:47.210 These are the Jesuits. 02:54:47.710 --> 02:54:49.430 These are the ones we do war with. 02:54:49.830 --> 02:54:52.950 And we must know completely about them if we are to succeed. 02:55:23.950 --> 02:55:27.950 If you'd like to get a copy of

Good evening and welcome to the Investigative Journal. 02:57:01.760 --> 02:57:05.700 And like I mentioned earlier this week, periodically we suspend regular 02:57:05.700 --> 02:57:11.740 broadcasting and provide online educational courses in basically what is 02:57:11.740 --> 02:57:14.980 the hidden truth that's been kept from the American people and the people of the 02:57:14.980 --> 02:57:15.220 world. 02:57:15.440 --> 02:57:21.580 The course we're discussing this week is being taught to us by Eric John Phelps and 02:57:21.580 --> 02:57:23.100 it's called Understanding the Jesuits. 02:57:23.280 --> 02:57:28.140 This is part three of the course and now I'll turn it over to Eric for the 02:57:28.140 --> 02:57:29.440 following two hours. 02:57:30.100 --> 02:57:30.660 Go ahead, Eric. 02:57:30.980 --> 02:57:32.320 Pleasure to be with you and the listeners. 02:57:33.140 --> 02:57:38.700 We should now embark upon after we have read about the establishment of the Jesuit 02:57:38.700 --> 02:57:47.820 Order their influence in the doctrines of the papacy and specifically the Council of 02:57:47.820 --> 02:57:48.120 Trent. 02:57:48.680 --> 02:57:54.480 The Council of Trent and its maxims must ever be on our mind if we are to 02:57:54.480 --> 02:57:56.900 understand that Rome never changes. 02:57:58.420 --> 02:58:03.540 Even according to the documents of Vatican II, every Pope must swear that he will 02:58:03.540 --> 02:58:06.560 uphold the doctrines of the Council of Trent. 02:58:07.740 --> 02:58:12.420 The Protestant Reformation was breaking the temple power of the Pope throughout 02:58:12.420 --> 02:58:13.160 northern Europe. 02:58:14.020 --> 02:58:15.760 Whole nations were breaking away. 02:58:16.000 --> 02:58:20.260 Germany, Holland, Denmark, England and others. 02:58:21.100 --> 02:58:24.300 And therefore it was the Jesuits who came to the forefront. 02:58:25.140 --> 02:58:28.120 The mighty warriors for the Pope that they are and were. 02:58:28.920 --> 02:58:34.400 For the purpose of bringing Europe and the world back to fealty to the Pope. 02:58:34.800 --> 02:58:35.780 To kiss his toe. 02:58:36.520 --> 02:58:39.180 To worship him as God manifests in the flesh. 02:58:39.280 --> 02:58:41.840 Evidence that he is dressed in white and thus divine. 02:58:42.620 --> 02:58:44.560 According to the doctrines of Rome. 02:58:45.480 --> 02:58:54.240 So the Jesuits began to codify the most important maxims of the papacy that had 02:58:54.240 --> 02:59:00.740 ever been written from Thomas Aquinas to the present in 1545 when the Council of 02:59:00.740 --> 02:59:02.200 Trent began in Trent, Italy. 02:59:02.900 --> 02:59:08.640 Its purpose was to thwart and resist the doctrines of the Protestant Reformation 02:59:08.640 --> 02:59:11.280 and thus to destroy it. 02:59:12.000 --> 02:59:17.420 This was the spine, the backbone of the Jesuit Order's counter-reformation. 02:59:17.420 --> 02:59:21.680 So what we have beginning now is this great dialectic. 02:59:22.300 --> 02:59:26.440 This key to our understanding of history for the last 500 years. 02:59:27.040 --> 02:59:33.620 Reformation and the doctrines of the Bible versus the counter-reformation and the 02:59:33.620 --> 02:59:38.680 evil designs of Rome as codified in the Council of Trent. 02:59:39.720 --> 02:59:47.440 We are looking now at Dowling's History of Romanism in a chapter titled, Popery at 02:59:47.440 --> 02:59:47.820 Trent. 02:59:48.580 --> 02:59:50.120 Popery at Trent. 02:59:50.980 --> 03:00:02.680 On page 475 we read Book 7 Popery at Trent From the opening sessions of the Council 03:00:02.680 --> 03:00:04.320 of Trent A.D. 03:00:04.420 --> 03:00:07.060 1545 to the closing session A.D. 03:00:07.240 --> 03:00:13.880 1563 At the time of Luther's death, the Fathers of Trent had just commenced 03:00:13.880 --> 03:00:19.400 the celebrated Council called at that city by Pope Paul III partly with the professed 03:00:19.400 --> 03:00:24.580 design of promoting a reform of the abuses of the Church and of the morals and 03:00:24.580 --> 03:00:29.840 manners of the clergy which was so loudly demanded but cheaply for the purpose of 03:00:29.840 --> 03:00:35.040 rooting out the Lutheran heresy in an opposition to the doctrines of the German 03:00:35.040 --> 03:00:41.680 Reformers of stating and defining with more exactitude and precision than ever 03:00:41.680 --> 03:00:49.580 before The opening session of the Council of Trent was held on the 13th of December, 03:00:49.780 --> 03:00:56.660 1545, and the closing session was not held until the month of December, 1563, 03:00:57.520 --> 03:01:02.120 after several suspensions and intermissions, about 18 years from its 03:01:02.120 --> 03:01:02.540 commencement. 03:01:02.540 --> 03:01:07.960 The Council of Trent is the last general council ever held by the Romanist Church, 03:01:08.560 --> 03:01:19.540 as of 1845, and consequently the very highest source of authority as to the 03:01:19.540 --> 03:01:21.840 present doctrines and character of Romanism. 03:01:22.880 --> 03:01:27.580 In the present chapter we shall give a synopsis of the most remarkable doctrinal 03:01:27.580 --> 03:01:31.320 decrees of the different sessions of the celebrated council. 03:01:32.860 --> 03:01:38.720 The writer then begins to describe all 25 sessions of the Council of Trent, 03:01:39.840 --> 03:01:44.960 and we shall just merely touch on two of the most important ones. 03:01:46.860 --> 03:01:51.840 Page 478, The History of Romanism, John Dowling, 1845. 03:01:52.500 --> 03:01:58.420 It is contained in my old book CD, my Vatican Assassins III CD. 03:01:59.540 --> 03:02:05.900 The second session was held January 7th, 1546, which chiefly consumed in 03:02:05.900 --> 03:02:11.500 discussions as to the style to be adopted by the Council and the order of the future 03:02:11.500 --> 03:02:14.860 proceedings, whether they should commence with doctrine or discipline. 03:02:15.600 --> 03:02:19.420 Several of the members of the Council desired the insertion of the words, 03:02:20.000 --> 03:02:22.220 representing the universal church, unquote. 03:02:23.200 --> 03:02:27.700 In the debate which ensued, the Bishop of Feltry observed that if the clause were 03:02:27.700 --> 03:02:32.100 admitted, the Protestants would take occasion to say that since the church is 03:02:32.100 --> 03:02:36.640 composed of two orders, the clergy and the laity, and of course the Bible has nothing 03:02:36.640 --> 03:02:41.860 to say of anything about any clergy or any laity, it could not be fully represented 03:02:41.860 --> 03:02:43.100 if the latter were excluded. 03:02:43.100 --> 03:02:48.720 To this the Bishop of St. Mark replied that the laity could not be termed the 03:02:48.720 --> 03:02:55.680 church, since according to the canons they had only to obey the commands laid upon 03:02:55.680 --> 03:02:56.100 them. 03:02:57.420 --> 03:03:03.960 That one reason why the Council was called was to decide that laymen, again there is 03:03:03.960 --> 03:03:08.340 no such term in the Bible, ought to receive the faith which the church 03:03:08.340 --> 03:03:11.440 dictated without disputing or reasoning. 03:03:13.100 --> 03:03:18.900 And that consequently the clause should be inserted to convince them that they were 03:03:18.900 --> 03:03:25.180 not the church and had nothing to do but to hear and submit. 03:03:26.300 --> 03:03:28.060 Do you hear that Roman Catholics? 03:03:29.100 --> 03:03:33.080 The Council of Trent says you are not the Roman Catholic Church. 03:03:33.820 --> 03:03:37.640 You are not part of the ruling body of the papacy. 03:03:38.520 --> 03:03:46.380 Your duty is merely to hear and submit like the animals they consider you to be. 03:03:48.440 --> 03:03:53.320 The third session was celebrated on February 4, 1546 and nothing was done 03:03:53.320 --> 03:03:57.300 except to adopt a decree of the Council to repeat the Nicene Creed. 03:03:58.340 --> 03:04:06.540 The fourth session was celebrated on April 8, 1546 and was one of the most important 03:04:06.540 --> 03:04:07.560 sessions of the Council. 03:04:08.480 --> 03:04:14.600 In this session a decree was passed which placed tradition upon an equality with the 03:04:14.600 --> 03:04:19.680 scriptures, declared the books of the Apocrypha, which are nothing more than 03:04:19.680 --> 03:04:24.600 Jewish fairy tales, to be a part of the word of God, elevated the Latin 03:04:24.600 --> 03:04:30.480 translation of the scriptures called the Vulgate to an authority superior to that 03:04:30.480 --> 03:04:35.680 of the inspired Hebrew and Greek originals, and enacted severe penal laws 03:04:35.680 --> 03:04:37.300 against the liberty of the press. 03:04:38.940 --> 03:04:40.400 We must repeat this. 03:04:41.780 --> 03:04:47.400 What the Council did was it placed tradition on an equality with the 03:04:47.400 --> 03:04:47.720 scriptures. 03:04:48.220 --> 03:04:50.920 This is a sign of any cult. 03:04:52.240 --> 03:04:57.600 The Mormons place the Pearl of Great Price and Doctrine of Covenants and the Book of 03:04:57.600 --> 03:05:01.560 Mormon, all of them on an equal footing with the Bible. 03:05:01.560 --> 03:05:03.780 This is why Mormonism is a cult. 03:05:04.640 --> 03:05:07.700 And of course I can prove that it was started by Jesuits through high-level 03:05:07.700 --> 03:05:10.060 Freemasons like Joseph Smith and Brigham Young. 03:05:11.160 --> 03:05:16.500 Further, the Council declared the books of the Apocrypha to be part of the word of 03:05:16.500 --> 03:05:16.840 God. 03:05:17.200 --> 03:05:22.180 The Apocrypha, if you have ever read them, are nothing more than Jewish fairy tales 03:05:22.180 --> 03:05:27.560 or Jewish fables that the Apostle Paul warns the writer in Timothy not to read or 03:05:27.560 --> 03:05:28.580 be carried away with. 03:05:28.580 --> 03:05:34.920 Because in these fairy tales, some of the doctrines of Rome are substantiated, 03:05:34.980 --> 03:05:36.340 such as auricular confession. 03:05:38.540 --> 03:05:40.240 What else did the Council do? 03:05:40.380 --> 03:05:44.720 It elevated the Latin translation of the scriptures called the Vulgate. 03:05:45.780 --> 03:05:47.840 This is Jerome's Latin Vulgate. 03:05:49.080 --> 03:05:50.700 This is sheer heresy. 03:05:51.540 --> 03:05:57.880 And as Bible believers, we utterly reject it as corrupt, having nothing to do with 03:05:57.880 --> 03:05:58.840 the true scriptures. 03:06:00.320 --> 03:06:02.040 The Council goes on and says, 03:06:08.480 --> 03:06:14.720 What it tells you there is that the Jesuits completely throw out the Hebrew 03:06:14.720 --> 03:06:18.600 text, the Masoretic text, and the Greek originals. 03:06:18.600 --> 03:06:21.540 Most of the Greek text's receptives are also called the Byzantine text, 03:06:21.620 --> 03:06:26.080 which was the Greek text of the Orthodox Church for many centuries, until about the 03:06:26.080 --> 03:06:26.880 20th century. 03:06:28.280 --> 03:06:32.000 I'll never forget the day I went into a Greek Orthodox Church. 03:06:32.140 --> 03:06:37.520 I knew this one girl, she lived in Washington, and she decided to take me to 03:06:37.520 --> 03:06:38.280 the Orthodox Church. 03:06:38.780 --> 03:06:42.640 She brought me into the pastor's study there, and I said, Do you mind if I take a 03:06:42.640 --> 03:06:43.360 look at your Greek text? 03:06:43.620 --> 03:06:44.400 She said, sure, go ahead. 03:06:44.560 --> 03:06:47.060 I looked at it, and it was Nephil's text. 03:06:48.100 --> 03:06:53.220 Eberhard Nestle's text, which is nothing more than a modernized Westcott and Hort 03:06:53.220 --> 03:06:58.260 Greek text, which is nothing more than Jerome's Latin Vulgate, put in a Greek 03:06:58.260 --> 03:07:02.960 text to overthrow the Texas Receptives, the foundation for the Reformation Bible, 03:07:03.680 --> 03:07:05.200 the Geneva and the A.V. 03:07:05.280 --> 03:07:05.780 1611. 03:07:06.800 --> 03:07:12.800 So the Jesuits, whenever they are influential, will always reject the Hebrew 03:07:12.800 --> 03:07:18.120 and Greek originals, and make you abide by Jerome's Latin Vulgate. 03:07:18.920 --> 03:07:23.420 And it's most intriguing that many, many of the new versions of the English 03:07:23.420 --> 03:07:29.140 Bibles are pro-Jerome's Latin Vulgate in their readings, pursuant to the Council of 03:07:29.140 --> 03:07:29.420 Trent. 03:07:29.420 --> 03:07:36.740 That is, the N.I.V., the N.A.S.B., the R.S.V., etc., etc., etc., all based on 03:07:36.740 --> 03:07:40.800 a corrupt Greek text, Westcott and Hort's Greek text that was given to them by the 03:07:40.800 --> 03:07:44.240 Jesuits, and snuck into the revision committee when they were busy overthrowing 03:07:44.240 --> 03:07:45.720 the British Empire. 03:07:47.880 --> 03:07:53.600 And then, Trent says that the Jesuits enacted severe penal laws against the 03:07:53.600 --> 03:07:54.700 liberty of the press. 03:07:56.480 --> 03:07:58.680 Do we enjoy the liberty of the press? 03:07:58.940 --> 03:08:04.060 Do we enjoy the right to be able to speak as we are speaking even now? 03:08:05.100 --> 03:08:06.200 Of course we do! 03:08:06.400 --> 03:08:11.220 We realize this doesn't exist in about 80% of the rest of the world, and it only 03:08:11.220 --> 03:08:16.120 exists there in part, in this country, in this very dark time. 03:08:16.120 --> 03:08:23.340 But the liberty of the press was a maxim championed by the Reformers and by the 03:08:23.340 --> 03:08:23.920 Baptists. 03:08:25.100 --> 03:08:29.360 And the liberty of the press is condemned by the Council of Trent. 03:08:29.860 --> 03:08:31.820 People say to me, oh, the Pope is a nice man. 03:08:31.980 --> 03:08:34.120 My father said to me, there are a lot of people that like him. 03:08:34.460 --> 03:08:37.080 My father's wife is a Roman Catholic, a very nice lady. 03:08:37.080 --> 03:08:43.700 I said, Dad, it has nothing to do with the personality of the priest. 03:08:44.280 --> 03:08:47.700 It has everything to do with the doctrine that he stands for. 03:08:48.540 --> 03:08:52.460 John Paul II can apologize all day long for the Crusades and for the Inquisition 03:08:52.460 --> 03:08:57.840 and for the Third Reich, but until the Council of Trent is trashed, it means 03:08:57.840 --> 03:08:58.340 nothing. 03:09:00.520 --> 03:09:02.820 We need to hate these doctrines. 03:09:03.160 --> 03:09:07.560 Anybody that says we do not have the freedom of the press, we need to hate what 03:09:07.560 --> 03:09:08.420 they have said. 03:09:09.960 --> 03:09:11.280 And this is what Trent does. 03:09:12.500 --> 03:09:15.840 Tradition was declared of an equal authority with the Scripture. 03:09:16.660 --> 03:09:18.300 This is evidence of any cult. 03:09:20.000 --> 03:09:21.120 We continue... 03:10:22.400 --> 03:10:28.340 Again we repeat, the Apocrypha teaches, as do the Papers, that a man can justify 03:10:28.340 --> 03:10:31.740 himself and make atonement for his sins by his own works. 03:10:31.740 --> 03:10:36.900 The Inspired Word of God ascribes justification and atonement wholly to the 03:10:36.900 --> 03:10:40.960 merit of Christ's righteousness and the efficacy of his sufferings. 03:10:41.880 --> 03:10:44.560 So here we have the Great Divide. 03:10:45.700 --> 03:10:51.560 Cainite religion, as founded by Cain when he offered the fruit of the garden that he 03:10:51.560 --> 03:10:53.340 had planted to the Lord. 03:10:54.000 --> 03:10:56.760 These were symbolic of his good works. 03:10:57.420 --> 03:10:59.760 Of his works that he did in his own flesh. 03:11:00.500 --> 03:11:05.420 And that he would use these works, these supposedly good works, as a reason 03:11:05.420 --> 03:11:08.680 to justify himself before God and God would accept his sacrifice. 03:11:09.280 --> 03:11:12.420 And the Lord rejected Cain and his sacrifice. 03:11:13.680 --> 03:11:19.740 The Lord told Cain to go get a lamb and cut its throat and bleed it. 03:11:20.260 --> 03:11:24.780 And the blood of the lamb will be acting as an atonement and reckoning for your 03:11:24.780 --> 03:11:25.280 sins. 03:11:26.320 --> 03:11:31.500 But Cain would refuse to shed the blood of the lamb in foreshadowing the coming of 03:11:31.500 --> 03:11:32.160 the Son of God. 03:11:32.240 --> 03:11:34.360 For he is the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world. 03:11:34.360 --> 03:11:35.720 And what does he do? 03:11:35.780 --> 03:11:40.540 He gets angry and says, OK Lord, if you want some blood shed, I'll shed 03:11:40.540 --> 03:11:41.180 some blood. 03:11:41.420 --> 03:11:43.140 And he kills his brother Abel. 03:11:45.620 --> 03:11:49.660 Here we have the two camps that exist in the world today. 03:11:50.060 --> 03:11:54.280 Those that follow the religion of Cain and their supposed good works. 03:11:54.280 --> 03:11:59.700 And those few that follow the Lord Jesus Christ, entrusting in the blood of the 03:11:59.700 --> 03:12:03.800 lamb, having been washed in his precious blood, and have no righteousness in and of 03:12:03.800 --> 03:12:09.380 ourselves except what has been imputed to us by the grace of God. 03:12:09.580 --> 03:12:13.220 As we are declared to be justified, having believed the gospel by his grace. 03:12:14.000 --> 03:12:20.520 And those who justify themselves by their good works are always the persecutors of 03:12:20.520 --> 03:12:27.120 those of us who have fled to Christ as our refuge and accepting him as the Lamb of 03:12:27.120 --> 03:12:27.420 God. 03:12:28.220 --> 03:12:30.100 We don't persecute the Cainites. 03:12:30.980 --> 03:12:32.720 The Cainites persecute us. 03:12:33.500 --> 03:12:35.120 That's always the way it is. 03:12:36.000 --> 03:12:42.820 So the Apocrypha is Romish, it goes back to Jewish fairy tales, and ultimately it 03:12:42.820 --> 03:12:48.660 rests in Babylonian mythological religion that hates God and hates his word. 03:12:49.480 --> 03:12:51.580 And Trent embodies this. 03:12:52.480 --> 03:12:53.640 And Trent is today. 03:12:53.880 --> 03:13:01.800 When Cardinal Ratzinger was made Pope Benedict XVI, he swore to uphold this 03:13:01.800 --> 03:13:05.560 iniquitous, this wicked counsel of Trent. 03:13:05.800 --> 03:13:11.680 Whose overseer was Diego Lainez, who was a Jesuit and a Jew by race. 03:13:12.000 --> 03:13:16.480 One of the last Jews by race to ever be allowed into the Jesuits until 1946. 03:13:16.480 --> 03:13:20.760 And it was this Lainez who oversaw the counsel of Trent. 03:13:22.480 --> 03:13:27.740 In chapter 2, with the fourth session continued, the Latin Vulgate exalted above 03:13:27.740 --> 03:13:32.000 the inspired Hebrew and Greek scriptures, private judgment and liberty of the press 03:13:32.000 --> 03:13:35.980 forbidden, and a Popish censorship of the press established. 03:13:36.360 --> 03:13:38.620 This is what happened as a result of Trent. 03:13:39.500 --> 03:13:41.460 You no longer have freedom of speech. 03:13:41.840 --> 03:13:43.400 You do not have freedom of press. 03:13:44.480 --> 03:13:48.440 And this is why the Jesuits hate the First Amendment. 03:13:49.680 --> 03:13:52.160 They want that First Amendment flushed. 03:13:52.240 --> 03:13:52.860 And you know what? 03:13:53.180 --> 03:13:55.380 It already is to a large part. 03:13:55.900 --> 03:14:00.520 Because of the legal schools, the law schools in this country. 03:14:00.660 --> 03:14:02.660 Remember, one out of every ten lawyers is trained by Jesuits. 03:14:02.760 --> 03:14:07.820 The foremost law schools in this country are Jesuit institutions like Georgetown 03:14:07.820 --> 03:14:08.880 University Law Center. 03:14:08.880 --> 03:14:10.640 And what do they do? 03:14:10.940 --> 03:14:16.460 They have had Supreme Court decisions, and they have enticed churches to get a 03:14:16.460 --> 03:14:19.880 501c3 status, and thus uniting church and state. 03:14:20.220 --> 03:14:25.840 And as a result, there is in fact no more separation of church, an organized church 03:14:25.840 --> 03:14:28.780 religion, the papacy, and the government of the United States. 03:14:28.860 --> 03:14:30.500 It is no longer separated. 03:14:30.500 --> 03:14:37.620 And when possible, specifically through this 9-11 fiasco, and the recent laws that 03:14:37.620 --> 03:14:42.480 have been passed, the Patriot Acts, there will be no more First Amendment, 03:14:42.700 --> 03:14:45.400 Second Amendment, Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth. 03:14:45.580 --> 03:14:49.480 They are all going to be gone, because those amendments limit the powers 03:14:49.480 --> 03:14:50.520 of the federal government. 03:14:51.020 --> 03:14:55.780 And the form of government that the Jesuits seek to establish everywhere is 03:14:55.780 --> 03:14:57.620 absolutist fascism. 03:14:57.620 --> 03:15:02.840 Where there are no limits whatsoever on the powers of those people who call 03:15:02.840 --> 03:15:03.700 themselves the government. 03:15:04.600 --> 03:15:07.680 This is all embodied in the Council of Trent. 03:15:08.360 --> 03:15:13.800 That every priest must read and study before he is ever ordained to the Roman 03:15:13.800 --> 03:15:14.360 priesthood. 03:15:15.640 --> 03:15:16.940 We continue on... 03:15:16.940 --> 03:15:20.640 The right of private judgment in reading the scriptures is prohibited, and its 03:15:20.640 --> 03:15:21.800 exercise punished. 03:15:23.120 --> 03:15:28.780 We read here, in one of the maxims of Trent, it says, quote, In order to 03:15:28.780 --> 03:15:36.220 restrain petulant minds, the counsel for the decrees, that in matters of faith and 03:15:36.220 --> 03:15:40.040 morals, and whatever relates to the maintenance of Christian doctrine, 03:15:40.880 --> 03:15:47.880 no one confiding in his own judgment shall dare to rest the sacred scriptures to his 03:15:47.880 --> 03:15:49.080 own sense of them. 03:15:49.800 --> 03:15:50.880 Get that. 03:15:51.700 --> 03:15:58.720 No one confiding in his own judgment shall dare to rest the sacred scriptures, 03:15:59.000 --> 03:16:03.100 the Vulgate, to his own sense of them. 03:16:03.780 --> 03:16:09.060 Contrary to that which hath been held, and still is held, by Holy Mother Church, 03:16:09.600 --> 03:16:14.080 whose right it is to judge of the true meaning and interpretation of sacred writ, 03:16:14.640 --> 03:16:20.340 the Vulgate, or contrary to the unanimous consent of the Fathers, even though such 03:16:20.340 --> 03:16:22.300 interpretations should never be published. 03:16:22.920 --> 03:16:29.260 If any disobey, let him be denounced by the ordinaries, and punished according to 03:16:29.260 --> 03:16:29.580 law. 03:16:29.940 --> 03:16:33.880 And that punishment, most of the time, was death by fire. 03:16:35.280 --> 03:16:35.960 That's right. 03:16:35.960 --> 03:16:41.420 You did not have the right to own a Bible in your own language, and sit around your 03:16:41.420 --> 03:16:45.280 hearth, and rejoice in the wonderful doctrines of the Word of God. 03:16:45.360 --> 03:16:48.780 If you were discovered, you were arrested by the Inquisitor. 03:16:49.080 --> 03:16:52.860 They would take your Bible, they would burn it, and they would take you down 03:16:52.860 --> 03:16:56.860 three stories below the ground, and torture a confession out of you. 03:16:57.080 --> 03:17:01.240 After they burned your feet, flayed the skin off your flesh, plucked out your 03:17:01.240 --> 03:17:04.080 eyes, cut off your breasts if you were women. 03:17:05.360 --> 03:17:10.540 After they gave you the water torture of letting a slow drip and rag go down into 03:17:10.540 --> 03:17:13.480 your mouth, and then ripping it out when it got down into your stomach. 03:17:13.980 --> 03:17:18.740 Hanging you up with your arms behind you with a rock tied to your feet, 03:17:19.460 --> 03:17:23.640 and then bouncing you up and down until your arms were broken. 03:17:24.980 --> 03:17:28.300 Until you couldn't move, tearing out your tongue so you couldn't speak. 03:17:29.840 --> 03:17:34.800 Putting your eyes out with hot pincers, pouring molten lead into your ears. 03:17:35.400 --> 03:17:40.480 All these things were done for centuries by the Jesuits and their Inquisition, 03:17:40.840 --> 03:17:44.920 enforcing the Council of Trent, and they're dying to enforce it here. 03:17:45.620 --> 03:17:46.740 They can't wait. 03:17:49.920 --> 03:17:54.740 The liberty of the press, authoritatively also forbidden. 03:17:55.480 --> 03:17:59.180 So now, we don't have the right to private judgment, we don't have the right to read 03:17:59.180 --> 03:18:03.520 the Scriptures, we don't have the right to converse and talk about what the Scripture 03:18:03.520 --> 03:18:04.540 may or may not mean. 03:18:05.380 --> 03:18:07.260 I mean, what higher conversation can we have? 03:18:08.660 --> 03:18:12.380 And now we don't have the liberty of the press to publish what we've concluded, 03:18:12.720 --> 03:18:13.720 publish what we've come to. 03:18:13.900 --> 03:18:18.500 This is why my book, Vatican Assassins, will not be sold in Barnes and Noble. 03:18:18.920 --> 03:18:21.660 It will not be sold in any major bookstore. 03:18:21.800 --> 03:18:23.840 They refuse to sell it on the shelf. 03:18:23.840 --> 03:18:26.420 They may order it, but they will never carry it. 03:18:28.280 --> 03:18:32.900 Because it's these kinds of things that are exposed, and when people see what a 03:18:32.900 --> 03:18:40.100 horrible compendium of wicked doctrines is in the Council of Trent, they begin to 03:18:40.100 --> 03:18:40.480 think. 03:18:42.280 --> 03:18:44.740 We continue on, page 491. 03:18:47.780 --> 03:18:53.640 These rules are the laws of the Romish Church, in precisely the same sense as the 03:18:53.640 --> 03:18:57.500 statute enacted by the House of Representatives and Senate of the United 03:18:57.500 --> 03:19:01.920 States, and signed by the President, becomes the law of the American nation. 03:19:02.800 --> 03:19:07.820 And all Popish bishops and priests are bound to enforce these laws, wherever 03:19:07.820 --> 03:19:11.520 Popery prevails, to the very utmost of their ability. 03:19:12.580 --> 03:19:17.440 Let the Protestant lover of his Bible, and of that glorious bulwark of liberty, 03:19:17.660 --> 03:19:22.800 the freedom of the press, pay particular attention to the passages marked by 03:19:22.800 --> 03:19:28.120 italics or capitals, and then say whether it is possible for freedom to exist in any 03:19:28.120 --> 03:19:33.100 land where Popery is the predominant religion, and the priests of Rome possess 03:19:33.100 --> 03:19:35.860 the power to enforce these laws of their church. 03:19:37.760 --> 03:19:39.660 And that's what's coming to America. 03:19:40.420 --> 03:19:44.960 As the priest, as the Archbishop of New York rules this country, he is the Prince 03:19:44.960 --> 03:19:49.700 of the Church, the King of America, ruling from his castle, St. Patrick's 03:19:49.700 --> 03:19:50.800 Cathedral in New York City. 03:19:51.080 --> 03:19:54.820 Don't you think for one minute that he does everything he can to control the 03:19:54.820 --> 03:19:58.480 press, through the Knights of Malta that he controls, working in Rockefeller 03:19:58.480 --> 03:20:01.680 Center, right across the street from St. Patrick's Cathedral. 03:20:01.680 --> 03:20:05.860 It's Rockefeller Center, from which publish all the major periodicals of this 03:20:05.860 --> 03:20:10.500 country, Time, Life, you've got CIA there, British Intelligence there, all making 03:20:10.500 --> 03:20:11.760 sure that you get lied to. 03:20:12.140 --> 03:20:16.680 All on orders of the Archbishop of New York, because he controls the press in 03:20:16.680 --> 03:20:20.920 this country, through the Council on Foreign Relations, as he employs many of 03:20:20.920 --> 03:20:25.320 his Masonic Jewish labor Zionists, who rule Israel for the benefit of the 03:20:25.320 --> 03:20:25.740 Papacy. 03:20:27.140 --> 03:20:29.540 All of this is in accordance with the Council of Trent. 03:20:31.680 --> 03:20:35.100 Continuing on, Potpourri at Trent. 03:20:38.300 --> 03:20:45.560 We see some of the other doctrines of the Reformation that are condemned. 03:20:47.700 --> 03:20:53.480 Quote, whoever shall affirm that newborn infants, even those sprung from baptized 03:20:53.480 --> 03:20:58.400 parents, ought not to be baptized, let him be accursed. 03:20:59.160 --> 03:21:04.100 Now we start the sessions where the Jesuits are accursing all the Protestants. 03:21:04.420 --> 03:21:11.240 The Jesuits put in excess of 100 curses on the Protestants of the Reformation because 03:21:11.240 --> 03:21:14.560 of the doctrines of the Word of God that these Protestants and Baptists preached. 03:21:15.520 --> 03:21:20.040 So if you don't believe that infants should be baptized, and of course baptism 03:21:20.040 --> 03:21:23.320 is by immersion, it's not by sprinkling, you're under a curse. 03:21:23.320 --> 03:21:25.840 The Bible teaches no such thing as infant baptism. 03:21:26.300 --> 03:21:29.240 The Bible teaches that when you're saved and you receive Christ as your Savior, 03:21:29.660 --> 03:21:32.640 it's then and only then that you follow the Lord in baptism. 03:21:32.940 --> 03:21:34.100 Not a minute before. 03:21:35.100 --> 03:21:38.280 But oh no, if you believe this, you're accursed. 03:21:39.380 --> 03:21:43.680 Whosoever shall deny that the guilt of original sin is remitted by the grace of 03:21:43.680 --> 03:21:50.960 our Lord Jesus Christ, bestowed in baptism, if anyone thinks differently, 03:21:51.420 --> 03:21:52.640 let him be accursed. 03:21:53.320 --> 03:21:57.780 So therefore those of us who do not believe in such thing as baptismal 03:21:57.780 --> 03:22:01.000 regeneration, that you have to be baptized to be saved, if we don't believe that and 03:22:01.000 --> 03:22:04.660 the Bible teaches no such thing, including the 16th chapter of Mark, 03:22:05.400 --> 03:22:07.060 we're under a curse. 03:22:07.560 --> 03:22:09.260 And if we're accursed, we can be killed. 03:22:10.060 --> 03:22:11.480 And to kill a heretic is no murder. 03:22:15.200 --> 03:22:16.120 Continuing on... 03:22:16.860 --> 03:22:22.020 Whosoever shall affirm that justification received is not preserved and even 03:22:22.020 --> 03:22:27.520 increased in the sight of God by good works, but that works are only the fruits 03:22:27.520 --> 03:22:32.280 and evidences of justification received and not the causes of its increase, 03:22:32.980 --> 03:22:33.840 let him be accursed. 03:22:34.620 --> 03:22:39.460 So therefore, if you don't believe in works salvation, if you believe in 03:22:39.460 --> 03:22:42.720 justification by grace through faith and it's not of yourself, it's the gift of 03:22:42.720 --> 03:22:46.700 God, Ephesians 2, 8 and 9, that there are no works you can do that are pleasing to 03:22:46.700 --> 03:22:51.000 God that will give you salvation and justification before God, you are 03:22:51.000 --> 03:22:51.740 accursed. 03:22:52.180 --> 03:22:52.580 Why? 03:22:53.680 --> 03:22:55.620 Because Romanism is canine religion. 03:22:56.040 --> 03:23:01.200 It is the worship of man, the works of man's hands, and it's your works in the 03:23:01.200 --> 03:23:06.120 light of the priests, in the eyes of the Pope, that justify you before God, 03:23:06.280 --> 03:23:07.320 or the God of the papacy. 03:23:07.760 --> 03:23:10.860 And this God is not the God of the Bible, it's the devil. 03:23:11.780 --> 03:23:14.560 The devil's great religion is works salvation. 03:23:14.700 --> 03:23:17.820 You've got to do this, you've got to do that, you can't do this, you can't do 03:23:17.820 --> 03:23:19.700 that, you must do this, you must do that. 03:23:19.700 --> 03:23:24.100 The Bible teaches you, we're not under law, but we're under grace. 03:23:24.440 --> 03:23:27.340 For grace, for sin shall not have dominion over you, for you're not under law, 03:23:27.400 --> 03:23:27.960 but under grace. 03:23:28.200 --> 03:23:31.900 Once you are saved by the grace of God, yes, we do have good works, but those are 03:23:31.900 --> 03:23:33.360 only evidence of our salvation. 03:23:34.320 --> 03:23:37.040 To say good works save you is heresy. 03:23:37.500 --> 03:23:41.500 And if you say this in a Catholic country where the priests rule, they will put you 03:23:41.500 --> 03:23:42.040 to death. 03:23:45.440 --> 03:23:46.480 Continue on... 03:23:46.480 --> 03:23:50.820 Whosoever shall affirm that a righteous man sins in every good work, at least 03:23:50.820 --> 03:23:54.920 venially, or which is yet more intolerable mortally. 03:23:54.980 --> 03:23:57.560 And of course there's no such thing as a venial or mortal sin in the Bible, 03:23:57.840 --> 03:23:59.100 that's all Romish trash. 03:23:59.920 --> 03:24:01.040 And that he therefore... 03:25:20.090 --> 03:25:21.190 Fight the fight. 03:25:21.570 --> 03:25:22.790 We are here to equip you. 03:25:23.090 --> 03:25:24.630

03:27:32.790 --> 03:27:34.250 southerners was this. 03:27:34.470 --> 03:27:35.590 Why did you fight? 03:27:35.590 --> 03:27:39.230 And the most often given answer is because you are here. 03:27:39.670 --> 03:27:42.290 In other words, the south did not invade the north. 03:27:42.370 --> 03:27:43.790 The north invaded the south. 03:27:43.970 --> 03:27:48.470 Was it the Civil War or War of Federal Aggression? 03:27:48.790 --> 03:27:53.930 John Weaver sets the record straight in this DVD series on the Civil War from the 03:27:53.930 --> 03:27:55.910 Old Past Christian History Conference.

Dowling's History of Romanism, 1845. 03:29:11.940 --> 03:29:17.000 How miserably debased must be the soul and intellect of a rational being before he 03:29:17.000 --> 03:29:21.060 can submit to a religion which enjoins such rules as the above. 03:29:21.840 --> 03:29:26.540 The votaries of Jupiter, Diana, and Juggernaut would be ashamed of them. 03:29:27.300 --> 03:29:32.580 Is it possible for the priest to believe these disgusting absurdities? 03:29:34.160 --> 03:29:35.620 And what is he talking about? 03:29:36.300 --> 03:29:41.340 Let's read what Trent has to say concerning, quote-unquote, the Eucharist. 03:29:41.740 --> 03:29:48.680 And remember this Eucharist is this little Jesus cookie that the priest pronounces 03:29:48.680 --> 03:29:50.740 some magic hocus-pocus words in Latin. 03:29:50.740 --> 03:29:56.600 And all of a sudden, ipso facto, this little wafer that dissolves in your 03:29:56.600 --> 03:30:01.060 mouth, you don't even have to chew it, all of a sudden turns into the literal, 03:30:01.360 --> 03:30:05.820 physical flesh of the Jesus Christ of Romanism. 03:30:06.260 --> 03:30:07.180 And you eat it. 03:30:08.400 --> 03:30:15.520 And the question arises, what happens if this piece of flesh of the literal Jesus 03:30:15.520 --> 03:30:17.940 Christ falls on the floor? 03:30:18.880 --> 03:30:19.960 What should you do? 03:30:21.020 --> 03:30:25.600 Chinoquy puts the question, what would happen if a mouse grabbed it and ran in a 03:30:25.600 --> 03:30:25.900 hole? 03:30:27.860 --> 03:30:31.680 God forbid, what would happen if one of these Eucharists was flushed down the 03:30:31.680 --> 03:30:32.820 toilet into the sewer? 03:30:34.560 --> 03:30:38.940 Well, here's what Trent has to say about such a thing with regard to, 03:30:39.040 --> 03:30:40.260 quote-unquote, the Eucharist. 03:30:41.260 --> 03:30:47.020 If the priest vomit the Eucharist, and the species appear entire, 03:30:47.760 --> 03:30:51.880 he must piously swallow it again. 03:30:52.920 --> 03:30:59.720 But if a nausea prevent him, then let the consecrated species be cautiously 03:30:59.720 --> 03:31:06.200 separated, and put by in some holy place, till they be corrupted, and after, 03:31:06.360 --> 03:31:09.320 let them be cast into holy ground. 03:31:10.140 --> 03:31:15.080 But if the species, the Eucharist, the little Jesus cookie, do not appear, 03:31:15.640 --> 03:31:20.780 the vomit must be burned, and the ashes thrown into holy ground. 03:31:20.780 --> 03:31:22.300 Can you believe the doctrine of Trent? 03:31:23.420 --> 03:31:25.940 This is absolutely insanity. 03:31:27.020 --> 03:31:29.960 And this was one of the doctrines of Trent. 03:31:30.720 --> 03:31:35.920 This is the absurdities you come to when you believe that this little cookie, 03:31:36.060 --> 03:31:40.400 this little wafer, all of a sudden, by magical powers of the priest, 03:31:40.820 --> 03:31:43.660 becomes the literal body of Jesus Christ. 03:31:45.240 --> 03:31:48.900 And this is the doctrine of Trent, that every priest swears to uphold, 03:31:49.180 --> 03:31:50.740 and that every Pope swears to uphold. 03:31:51.080 --> 03:31:55.380 No matter how learned or scientific they may appear on their face, they believe 03:31:55.380 --> 03:31:57.220 these absurdities and superstitions. 03:31:58.640 --> 03:32:01.060 We go on... 03:32:01.060 --> 03:32:06.260 Whosoever shall affirm that baptism is indifferent, that is, not necessary to 03:32:06.260 --> 03:32:07.720 salvation, let him be accursed. 03:32:07.800 --> 03:32:08.520 We touched on that. 03:32:09.520 --> 03:32:15.420 So we have this Council of Trent, whereby the Jesuits condemn doctrine after 03:32:15.420 --> 03:32:18.860 doctrine after doctrine of the Protestant Reformation. 03:32:19.520 --> 03:32:24.020 And this serves to be the foundation of the Order's Counter-Reformation. 03:32:25.140 --> 03:32:26.920 Now we will continue on. 03:32:26.920 --> 03:32:33.840 Let's be delivered of this heresy and this vexation of soul, from auricular 03:32:33.840 --> 03:32:40.580 confession to everything else that the papacy does to create works to justify you 03:32:40.580 --> 03:32:41.060 before God. 03:32:41.860 --> 03:32:47.400 And let's go to one of the perversions, an even greater perversion, called the 03:32:47.400 --> 03:32:50.480 Garden of the Soul, printed in 1844. 03:32:50.480 --> 03:32:53.480 Donnelly writes on page 516... 03:32:54.300 --> 03:33:01.320 The disgusting indecency of auricular confession and its necessarily corrupting 03:33:01.320 --> 03:33:06.020 influence, both to priest and penitent, must be evident to all when the nature of 03:33:06.020 --> 03:33:10.640 the subject is considered upon which the priests are bound to examine their female 03:33:10.640 --> 03:33:14.200 penitence relative to violations of the laws of chastity. 03:33:14.560 --> 03:33:17.620 And again, the Jesuits are masters of these questions. 03:33:18.760 --> 03:33:23.600 I have now lying before me the edition of the Garden of the Soul, printed in 1844 in 03:33:23.600 --> 03:33:24.000 New York. 03:33:24.520 --> 03:33:29.520 And as we are informed on the title page, quote, with the approbation of the Right 03:33:29.520 --> 03:33:33.060 Reverend Donnelly, Bishop of New York. 03:33:34.060 --> 03:33:36.200 This is Dagger John Hughes. 03:33:37.580 --> 03:33:43.580 On pages 213 and 214 of that popular Roman Catholic Book of Devotion, I find the 03:33:43.580 --> 03:33:48.320 following questions, in English, for the examination of conscience on the 03:33:48.320 --> 03:33:49.380 Sixth Commandment. 03:33:50.280 --> 03:33:52.760 Namely, really the Seventh Commandment, thou shalt not commit adultery. 03:33:53.480 --> 03:33:58.600 They are transcribed verbatim et literum, with the omission of portions of two of 03:33:58.600 --> 03:34:03.340 the queries, which are calculated to suggest modes of pollution and crime that 03:34:03.340 --> 03:34:05.320 a pure-minded person would never think of. 03:34:05.320 --> 03:34:10.540 I had thought at first of translating these questions into Latin, and throwing 03:34:10.540 --> 03:34:11.400 them into a note. 03:34:11.740 --> 03:34:16.240 But they are printed in plain English, in a popular Book of Devotion, 03:34:16.940 --> 03:34:20.740 issued under the auspices of the most celebrated Romish Bishop in America, 03:34:21.440 --> 03:34:24.600 and to be found in the hands of almost every Roman Catholic. 03:34:24.600 --> 03:34:29.800 And it is nothing but right that Protestants, and especially those who send 03:34:29.800 --> 03:34:33.220 their daughters to Roman Catholic seminaries, should know the kind of 03:34:33.220 --> 03:34:39.480 queries that will be proposed by the priest in the secret confessional to their 03:34:39.480 --> 03:34:44.280 wives and their daughters, in case they should be induced to embrace the religion 03:34:44.280 --> 03:34:44.720 of Rome. 03:34:45.720 --> 03:34:51.080 I must be excused for omitting recent portions of the two vilest questions in 03:34:51.080 --> 03:34:51.960 the filthy list. 03:34:51.960 --> 03:34:54.420 I dare not pollute my page with them. 03:34:54.760 --> 03:34:58.660 The work in which they are found can be procured by any Roman Catholic storybook. 03:34:59.140 --> 03:35:00.600 The following are the questions. 03:35:01.200 --> 03:35:02.280 Now get a load of this. 03:35:12.500 --> 03:35:18.480 Have you been guilty of fornication, or adultery, or incest, or any sin against 03:35:18.480 --> 03:35:25.520 nature, either with a person of the same sex, or with any other creature? 03:35:26.900 --> 03:35:28.100 How often? 03:35:29.220 --> 03:35:35.900 Or have you designed or attempted any such sin, or sought to induce others to it? 03:35:36.620 --> 03:35:37.200 How often? 03:35:38.160 --> 03:35:44.420 Have you been guilty of self-pollution, namely masturbation, or of immodest 03:35:44.420 --> 03:35:45.440 touches of yourself? 03:35:46.240 --> 03:35:46.840 How often? 03:35:47.620 --> 03:35:50.860 Have you touched others or permitted yourself to be touched by others 03:35:50.860 --> 03:35:56.940 immodestly, or given or taken wanton kisses or embraces, or any such liberties? 03:35:57.760 --> 03:35:58.480 How often? 03:35:59.560 --> 03:36:04.620 Have you looked at immodest objects with pleasure or danger, read immodest books or 03:36:04.620 --> 03:36:10.940 songs to yourself or others, kept indecent pictures, willingly given ear to or taken 03:36:10.940 --> 03:36:15.800 pleasure in hearing loose discourse, etc., or sought to see or hear anything 03:36:15.800 --> 03:36:16.800 that was immodest? 03:36:17.520 --> 03:36:18.320 How often? 03:36:19.280 --> 03:36:25.280 Have you exposed yourself to wanton company, or played at any indecent play, 03:36:26.120 --> 03:36:31.420 or frequented masquerades, balls, comedies, etc., with danger to your 03:36:31.420 --> 03:36:32.000 chastity? 03:36:32.600 --> 03:36:33.560 How often? 03:36:33.560 --> 03:36:40.080 Have you been guilty of any immodest disclosures, discourses, wanton stories, 03:36:40.600 --> 03:36:43.520 jests, or songs, or words of double meaning? 03:36:44.260 --> 03:36:44.900 How often? 03:36:45.560 --> 03:36:47.060 And before, how many? 03:36:48.140 --> 03:36:52.500 And were the persons before whom you spoke or sung married or single? 03:36:53.480 --> 03:36:58.420 For all this you are obliged to confess by reason of the evil thoughts these things 03:36:58.420 --> 03:37:00.400 are apt to create in the hearers. 03:37:00.960 --> 03:37:06.620 Have you abused the marriage bed by, and then it's blotted out, or by any 03:37:06.620 --> 03:37:10.760 pollutions, or been guilty of any irregularity in order, and that's blotted 03:37:10.760 --> 03:37:11.060 out? 03:37:12.000 --> 03:37:12.900 How often? 03:37:13.600 --> 03:37:16.640 Have you, without a just cause, refused the marriage debt? 03:37:18.140 --> 03:37:20.500 And what sin may have followed from it? 03:37:21.120 --> 03:37:21.720 How often? 03:37:21.720 --> 03:37:26.500 Have you debauched any person that was indecent, innocent before? 03:37:26.980 --> 03:37:31.680 Have you forced any person, or deluded anyone, by deceitful promises, 03:37:32.180 --> 03:37:34.940 or designed, or desired so to do? 03:37:35.560 --> 03:37:36.200 How often? 03:37:37.080 --> 03:37:41.060 You are obliged to make satisfaction for the injury you have done. 03:37:41.740 --> 03:37:47.560 Have you taught anyone evil which he knew not before, or carried anyone to lewd 03:37:47.560 --> 03:37:47.940 houses? 03:37:48.420 --> 03:37:49.000 How often? 03:37:49.000 --> 03:37:52.080 I mean, this goes on and on and on. 03:37:52.520 --> 03:37:58.500 What do you think this does to the minds of these poor women and poor young girls 03:37:58.500 --> 03:38:03.700 when these priests are hammering them with these filthy, disgusting questions? 03:38:04.240 --> 03:38:08.740 Is it any wonder why Roman Catholic nations are rampant with prostitution? 03:38:09.820 --> 03:38:14.900 It's the priests that have ruined the women with these kinds of questions. 03:38:15.660 --> 03:38:22.100 And all of this, all of this, is validated by the counsel of Trent, as it protects 03:38:22.100 --> 03:38:28.120 the office of priest, as he exercises his works under the authority of the Pope of 03:38:28.120 --> 03:38:34.740 Rome, whom Jeremiah Crowley called the chief of white slavers and the high priest 03:38:34.740 --> 03:38:35.520 of intrigue. 03:38:37.600 --> 03:38:43.780 We continue on with a few final verses here, from Trent. 03:38:44.300 --> 03:38:50.000 Whoever shall affirm that the satisfactions by which penitents redeem 03:38:50.000 --> 03:38:54.620 themselves from sin through Christ Jesus are no part of the service of God, 03:38:54.860 --> 03:38:59.460 but, on the contrary, human traditions which obscure the doctrine of grace and 03:38:59.460 --> 03:39:03.100 the worship of God and the benefits of the death of Christ, which all of 03:39:03.100 --> 03:39:06.060 Bible-believing men would say, let him be accursed. 03:39:06.300 --> 03:39:08.500 We are all accursed under the counsel of Trent. 03:39:08.880 --> 03:39:12.380 And therefore the Jesuits, pursuant to their fourth vow, and pursuant to the 03:39:12.380 --> 03:39:17.700 doctrines of Thomas Aquinas, as I read last night, can kill us with war, 03:39:18.120 --> 03:39:23.040 famine, a medical inquisition like they have been doing to us in the United States 03:39:23.040 --> 03:39:27.180 for the last hundred years, killing us with allopathic medicine. 03:39:28.460 --> 03:39:29.780 It's all an inquisition. 03:39:30.380 --> 03:39:35.400 Serving us foods, having all these foods in these supermarkets full of estrogens 03:39:35.400 --> 03:39:40.200 and pesticides and herbicides so that we can all come down with cancer. 03:39:40.800 --> 03:39:44.520 Vaccinating us when we are dear, sweet children where we have no disease, 03:39:44.620 --> 03:39:50.420 really, so that we can get cancer in our later life, or even more recently get 03:39:50.420 --> 03:39:56.240 autism and ADD because of these stinking, filthy, wicked vaccinations that they 03:39:56.240 --> 03:40:00.640 intimidate us to get, so we can send our children to public school where they can 03:40:00.640 --> 03:40:03.500 be taught, where they cannot read the Bible at all. 03:40:04.440 --> 03:40:10.180 It's an inquisition on a grand scale beyond our wildest dreams, and it opens 03:40:10.180 --> 03:40:12.860 before us as we read the doctrines of Trent. 03:40:14.300 --> 03:40:19.920 It's the counter-reformation to revert the world back to the Dark Ages, when the Pope 03:40:19.920 --> 03:40:20.800 was the king of the world. 03:40:22.440 --> 03:40:26.080 Well, now that we've examined Trent and seen what the Jesuits seek to enforce, 03:40:26.260 --> 03:40:32.680 and this is just a tiny tidbit of it, we shall go now to Reverend Wiley. 03:40:32.760 --> 03:40:34.440 I won't use the word Reverend, there's only one Reverend. 03:40:34.540 --> 03:40:37.400 It's the Lord Holy, and Reverend is his name, Psalm 111. 03:40:38.400 --> 03:40:44.240 We will go to this minister, James Wiley, and what he wrote in his great work, 03:40:44.320 --> 03:40:48.620 History of Protestantism, second volume, book 15, on the Jesuits. 03:40:49.180 --> 03:40:51.440 Here are a few more quotes from him. 03:40:53.360 --> 03:41:04.460 He writes on page 394, and I have this all copied in my third edition of Vatican 03:41:04.460 --> 03:41:05.500 Assassins in the back. 03:41:06.620 --> 03:41:12.500 So stood the society of Jesus, a deep and wide gulf separated from all 03:41:12.500 --> 03:41:13.880 other communities and interests. 03:41:14.740 --> 03:41:18.740 Set free from the love of family, from the tithes of kindred, from the 03:41:18.740 --> 03:41:23.760 claims of country, and from the rule of law, careless of the happiness they might 03:41:23.760 --> 03:41:29.880 destroy, and the misery and pain and woe they might inflict, the members were at 03:41:29.880 --> 03:41:35.420 liberty, without control or challenge, to pursue their terrible end, which was 03:41:35.420 --> 03:41:41.200 the dethronement of every other power, the extinction of every other interest but 03:41:41.200 --> 03:41:47.000 their own, and the reduction of mankind into abject slavery, that on the ruins of 03:41:47.000 --> 03:41:51.520 the liberty, the virtue, and the happiness of the world, they might raise themselves 03:41:51.520 --> 03:41:56.560 to supreme, unlimited domination, or dominion. 03:41:56.560 --> 03:42:01.580 But we have not yet detailed all the appliances with which the Jesuits were 03:42:01.580 --> 03:42:06.600 careful to furnish themselves for the execution of their unspeakably audacious 03:42:06.600 --> 03:42:08.080 and diabolical design. 03:42:08.080 --> 03:42:13.840 In the midst of these abysses there opens to our eye a yet profounder abyss, 03:42:14.200 --> 03:42:20.140 to enjoy exemption from all human authority, and from every earthly law was 03:42:20.140 --> 03:42:21.360 to them a small matter. 03:42:22.020 --> 03:42:27.300 Nothing would satisfy their lust for license, save the entire abrogation of the 03:42:27.300 --> 03:42:32.400 moral law, and nothing would appease their pride, save to trample underfoot the 03:42:32.400 --> 03:42:33.340 majesty of heaven. 03:42:34.160 --> 03:42:37.700 We now come to speak of the moral code of the Jesuits. 03:42:38.380 --> 03:42:40.260 And I would like to comment just a little bit on this. 03:42:40.700 --> 03:42:42.460 The Jesuits are indeed above the law. 03:42:42.760 --> 03:42:44.860 The Jesuits run the Department of Justice. 03:42:45.280 --> 03:42:47.160 I call it the Department of Injustice. 03:42:47.160 --> 03:42:49.880 For if you go to the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. 03:42:50.000 --> 03:42:55.360 to the gate that opens at the front door, you will see the symbols of the Roman 03:42:55.360 --> 03:42:56.280 Fascists. 03:42:57.280 --> 03:43:02.260 A bundle of rods with an axe protruding on both sides of each gate. 03:43:03.420 --> 03:43:05.880 This is the symbol of the Jesuit Fascism. 03:43:05.880 --> 03:43:10.460 This is the symbol that the Jesuit Order's Knights of Columbus use, the Roman 03:43:10.460 --> 03:43:11.060 Fascists. 03:43:11.120 --> 03:43:15.240 You can see it on any one of their lodges or temples or whatever you want to call 03:43:15.240 --> 03:43:15.400 it. 03:43:17.520 --> 03:43:22.420 The Jesuits in this country are above the law, exactly as Wiley said they would be 03:43:22.420 --> 03:43:24.080 in 1878. 03:43:26.000 --> 03:43:28.860 One would think that this was license enough. 03:43:29.180 --> 03:43:34.480 What more can the Jesuit need or what more can he possibly have, seeing by a little 03:43:34.480 --> 03:43:39.900 effort of invention he can overlap every human and divine barrier and commit the 03:43:39.900 --> 03:43:44.980 most horrible crimes on the mightiest possible scale and neither feel remorse or 03:43:44.980 --> 03:43:47.400 conscience nor fear of punishment. 03:43:49.200 --> 03:43:50.500 That's the Jesuit. 03:43:51.980 --> 03:44:00.360 When a Jesuit is given the order to maim, destroy, steal, kill, he does so with 03:44:00.360 --> 03:44:05.900 impunity and with no conscience as a stick in the hand of an old man, as Ignatius 03:44:05.900 --> 03:44:06.600 Loyola said. 03:44:08.380 --> 03:44:10.100 This is how they killed John F. 03:44:10.200 --> 03:44:10.420 Kennedy. 03:44:11.360 --> 03:44:13.140 This is how they killed Malcolm X. 03:44:14.260 --> 03:44:14.780 That's right. 03:44:15.300 --> 03:44:20.500 Cardinal Spellman oversaw it all with his Jesuit co-adjutors in the Dallas and New 03:44:20.500 --> 03:44:23.720 York Police Departments, in the CIA and the FBI. 03:44:25.380 --> 03:44:28.900 That's the kind of power Rome has in America and if it has that kind of power 03:44:28.900 --> 03:44:32.780 in America, it's the same exact power in England, it's the same exact power in 03:44:32.780 --> 03:44:35.040 Russia, it's the same exact power in China. 03:44:36.000 --> 03:44:37.400 There is no difference. 03:44:37.920 --> 03:44:40.140 There are no enemies at the top in government. 03:44:40.420 --> 03:44:41.860 They are all ruled by the Jesuits. 03:44:42.800 --> 03:44:49.460 We continue on with Wiley's work on page 398. 03:45:12.680 --> 03:45:23.320 And three, that if one know to direct the intention or right, there is no deed, 03:45:23.840 --> 03:45:29.600 be its moral character what it may, which one may not do, may seem to give a 03:45:29.600 --> 03:45:35.500 license of acting so immense that to add thereto were an altogether superfluous and 03:45:35.500 --> 03:45:37.040 indeed an impossible task. 03:45:37.040 --> 03:45:42.720 But if the liberty with which these three maxims endowed the Jesuit cannot be made 03:45:42.720 --> 03:45:47.280 larger, his particular applications may nevertheless be made more pointed, 03:45:47.680 --> 03:45:53.720 and the man who holds back from using it in all its extent may be emboldened, 03:45:53.880 --> 03:45:58.480 despite his remaining scruples or the dullness of his intellectual perceptions, 03:45:58.980 --> 03:46:02.400 to avail himself to the utmost of the advantages it offers. 03:46:02.920 --> 03:46:07.540 For the greater glory of God, ad majoriam de gloriam, and this is the Jesuits 03:46:07.540 --> 03:46:11.500 greatest favorite phrase, ad majoriam de gloriam, everything is ad majoriam de 03:46:11.500 --> 03:46:13.060 gloriam, for the greater glory of God. 03:46:13.240 --> 03:46:16.340 But you see, it's not the God of heaven, it's the God that sits in Rome, 03:46:16.560 --> 03:46:17.240 it's the Pope. 03:46:17.660 --> 03:46:21.520 Everything the Jesuits do is for the greater glory, for the extending of his 03:46:21.520 --> 03:46:25.400 spiritual and temporal power, it's for the greater glory of the Pope of Rome. 03:46:26.440 --> 03:46:31.100 So you see, because he is God to the Jesuits, he dresses in white, he is 03:46:31.100 --> 03:46:35.160 divine, he is the one who has recently said, all other branches of Christianity 03:46:35.160 --> 03:46:38.560 are not Christian because they are not part of the Roman Catholic institution, 03:46:38.940 --> 03:46:43.120 and anything apart from the Roman Catholic institution cannot be saved, cannot be 03:46:43.120 --> 03:46:43.520 justified. 03:46:43.860 --> 03:46:46.120 There is no salvation outside the Roman Catholic Church. 03:46:46.360 --> 03:46:51.060 And when Benedict XVI said this two days ago, he did nothing but repeat the 03:46:51.060 --> 03:46:51.940 doctrines of Trent. 03:46:52.820 --> 03:46:54.220 Wiley repeats the same. 03:46:55.840 --> 03:47:00.060 The Jesuit, he, is to be taught, not merely by general rules, but by 03:47:00.060 --> 03:47:05.420 specific examples, how he may sin and yet not become sinful, how he may break the 03:47:05.420 --> 03:47:07.320 law and yet not suffer the penalty. 03:47:13.320 --> 03:47:19.360 But further, these sons of Loyola are the kings of the world, and the sole heirs of 03:47:19.360 --> 03:47:26.220 all its wealth, honors, and pleasures, and whatever law, custom, sacred and 03:47:26.220 --> 03:47:31.480 venerable office, august and kingly authority may stand between them and their 03:47:31.480 --> 03:47:36.520 rightful lordship over mankind, they are at liberty to throw down and 03:47:36.520 --> 03:47:39.620 tread into the dust as a vile and accursed thing. 03:47:40.620 --> 03:47:45.060 The moral maxims of the Jesuits are to be put in force against kings as well as 03:47:45.060 --> 03:47:45.960 against peasants. 03:47:47.320 --> 03:47:52.440 This was written in 1878, when the Jesuits were already ruling England at this time, 03:47:52.500 --> 03:47:54.440 and when they were ruling America at this time. 03:47:55.960 --> 03:48:01.120 Wiley was right when he said, these sons of Loyola are the kings of the world. 03:48:02.400 --> 03:48:08.540 We go on to page 399 of Wiley's History of the Protestantism, volume 2. 03:48:09.420 --> 03:48:14.080 We have only to look around, and on every hand the melancholy monuments of those 03:48:14.080 --> 03:48:15.760 doctrines meet our affected sight. 03:48:16.740 --> 03:48:21.460 To what country of Europe shall we turn when we are not able to track the Jesuits 03:48:21.460 --> 03:48:22.920 by his bloody footprints? 03:48:22.920 --> 03:48:28.360 What page of modern history shall we open and not read fresh proofs that the papal 03:48:28.360 --> 03:48:33.140 doctrine of killing excommunicated kings was not meant to slumber in forgotten 03:48:33.140 --> 03:48:36.060 times, but to be acted out in the living world? 03:48:39.280 --> 03:48:42.480 We see Henry III falling by their dagger. 03:48:42.980 --> 03:48:46.440 Henry IV perishes by the same consecrated weapon. 03:48:47.520 --> 03:48:49.780 The King of Portugal dies by their order. 03:48:50.640 --> 03:48:55.200 The great Prince of Orange, William of Orange I, is dispatched, murdered by their 03:48:55.200 --> 03:48:59.460 agents, shot down at the door of his own dining room with three poison bullets. 03:48:59.460 --> 03:49:04.180 How many assassins they sent to England to murder Elizabeth, history attests. 03:49:04.700 --> 03:49:08.040 That she escaped their machinations is one of the marvels of history. 03:49:08.860 --> 03:49:13.080 Nor is it only the palaces of monarchs into which they have crept with their 03:49:13.080 --> 03:49:17.200 doctrines of murder and assassination, the very sanctuary of their own popes they 03:49:17.200 --> 03:49:18.220 have defiled with blood. 03:49:18.220 --> 03:49:22.700 We behold Clement XIV signing the order for the banishment of the Jesuits. 03:49:23.300 --> 03:49:28.360 That was Dominic Aquidemter Noster when it was a bull of suppression and extinction 03:49:28.360 --> 03:49:30.000 in 1773. 03:49:31.020 --> 03:49:34.900 And soon thereafter he is overtaken by their vengeance and dies by poison. 03:49:35.720 --> 03:49:39.520 In the gunpowder plot we see them deliberately planning to destroy at one 03:49:39.520 --> 03:49:43.580 blow the nobility and gentry of England when they sought to blow up the 03:49:43.580 --> 03:49:44.700 Westminster Abbey. 03:49:44.700 --> 03:49:50.840 To them we owe those civil wars which for so many years drenched with blood the fair 03:49:50.840 --> 03:49:51.780 provinces of France. 03:49:51.820 --> 03:49:57.320 By the way, with regard to the gunpowder plot, the movie V for Vendetta denies the 03:49:57.320 --> 03:49:58.600 Jesuit hand in it. 03:49:59.080 --> 03:50:04.480 Which shows you the power of the Jesuit order ruling Hollywood from one of their 03:50:04.480 --> 03:50:06.240 great churches in Hollywood. 03:50:09.460 --> 03:50:15.060 To them we owe those civil wars which for so many years drenched with blood the fair 03:50:15.060 --> 03:50:15.920 provinces of France. 03:50:16.020 --> 03:50:19.100 Yes, when they destroyed out the French Huguenots, they were the French 03:50:19.100 --> 03:50:19.760 Calvinists. 03:50:20.260 --> 03:50:23.540 The Jesuits killed them out, especially with the revocation of the Edict of Nantes 03:50:23.540 --> 03:50:24.080 in 1685. 03:50:25.240 --> 03:50:29.700 Drove them out, killed out the finest population of France, reduced it to 03:50:29.700 --> 03:50:30.240 penury. 03:50:31.140 --> 03:50:36.120 And for a hundred years the Bible was a forbidden book in France. 03:50:36.120 --> 03:50:42.680 Throughout the entire reign of the wicked King Louis XIV, who is also glorified in 03:50:42.680 --> 03:50:46.860 one of DiCaprio's movies on the Jesuits in Hollywood. 03:50:50.000 --> 03:50:56.320 Philip II and the Jesuits share between them the guilt of the Invincible Armada. 03:50:56.480 --> 03:51:00.200 Which instead of inflicting the measureless ruin and havoc, which as 03:51:00.200 --> 03:51:04.580 authors intended by a most merciful providence, became the means of exhausting 03:51:04.580 --> 03:51:07.360 the treasures and overthrowing the prestige of Spain. 03:51:07.360 --> 03:51:10.740 This is when the Jesuits sent the Spanish Armada against England, seeking to 03:51:10.740 --> 03:51:14.220 overthrow the Reformation, kill all the Protestants and restore Romanism as the 03:51:14.220 --> 03:51:14.880 religion of England. 03:51:15.180 --> 03:51:21.300 And also killing Elizabeth I, which the Jesuits called the Witch of the North and 03:51:21.300 --> 03:51:22.540 the Bastard Queen. 03:51:26.610 --> 03:51:30.270 We go on in Wiley's history of Protestantism. 03:51:34.680 --> 03:51:38.460 Shrewd, practical and precise are the instructions of the Jesuits. 03:51:38.460 --> 03:51:43.460 First of all, they are told to select the best points in that great field, 03:51:43.780 --> 03:51:47.080 all of which they are in due time to subjugate and possess. 03:51:48.120 --> 03:51:52.700 The field is Europe, the term Christendom. 03:51:54.040 --> 03:51:58.440 They are to begin by establishing convents or colleges in the chief cities. 03:51:58.940 --> 03:52:03.740 The great centers of population and wealth secured, the smaller places will be easily 03:52:03.740 --> 03:52:04.200 occupied. 03:52:04.200 --> 03:52:08.780 Charles Chenequy, who was a priest before he got saved, wrote in 50 years in the 03:52:08.780 --> 03:52:13.760 Church of Rome, that the Jesuits marched to the conquering of America's cities. 03:52:14.480 --> 03:52:19.460 And where do you find the most of Jesuit power and the most Roman Catholic 03:52:19.460 --> 03:52:22.860 immigrants who have been used to serve the purposes of the papacy? 03:52:23.280 --> 03:52:27.300 In the major cities, primarily of the North and in the West. 03:52:27.920 --> 03:52:32.940 New York City, Washington D.C., Albany, New York. 03:52:34.640 --> 03:52:37.500 Cincinnati, Philadelphia. 03:52:37.600 --> 03:52:40.100 Philadelphia is entirely Roman Catholic and black city. 03:52:42.420 --> 03:52:44.700 Baltimore, Roman Catholic and black city. 03:52:46.300 --> 03:52:48.840 All these cities have been conquered by the Jesuits. 03:52:49.760 --> 03:52:51.400 And they control them lock, stock and barrel. 03:52:51.700 --> 03:52:55.200 And by controlling all the major cities, New York City, they control all the 03:52:55.200 --> 03:52:56.420 commerce of the nation. 03:52:56.420 --> 03:53:05.360 Whoever, according to Justin Fulton and his great work, Rome on the Potomac, 03:53:06.060 --> 03:53:07.440 Washington on the lap of Rome. 03:53:07.540 --> 03:53:09.480 Washington on the lap of Rome was his great work. 03:53:09.740 --> 03:53:12.620 He said that whoever rules Washington D.C. 03:53:12.760 --> 03:53:17.140 and New York City controls America and the commerce and politics of this country. 03:53:17.540 --> 03:53:18.920 The Jesuits rule them both. 03:53:20.980 --> 03:53:25.680 That's where they brought all of our gold after they stole it out of Fort Knox using 03:53:25.680 --> 03:53:27.860 several presidents over 17 years. 03:53:28.180 --> 03:53:31.560 And they put it in their New York Federal Reserve Bank in their gold vault with 03:53:31.560 --> 03:53:34.440 600,000 gold bars. 03:53:34.740 --> 03:53:39.260 The largest gold hoard in the world that we've been swindled out of as American 03:53:39.260 --> 03:53:39.620 people. 03:53:39.880 --> 03:53:40.720 That's our gold. 03:53:40.920 --> 03:53:41.760 We mined it. 03:53:42.080 --> 03:53:42.820 We minted it. 03:53:43.020 --> 03:53:43.980 We made those coins. 03:53:43.980 --> 03:53:47.780 And then the Jesuits had a store in Fort Knox and then ultimately stole it out of 03:53:47.780 --> 03:53:50.600 Fort Knox and put it in their Federal Reserve Bank, their private bank. 03:53:50.800 --> 03:53:54.480 We have been completely raped, pillaged and plundered by the Jesuits and 03:53:54.480 --> 03:53:55.240 we own nothing. 03:53:55.380 --> 03:53:56.420 All of us are broke. 03:53:56.780 --> 03:53:59.500 All we have are worthless Federal Reserve notes. 03:53:59.760 --> 03:54:00.360 No gold. 03:54:00.600 --> 03:54:03.060 No silver coin as mandated by the U.S. 03:54:03.280 --> 03:54:03.600 Constitution. 03:54:03.880 --> 03:54:04.600 Because the U.S. 03:54:04.800 --> 03:54:06.060 Constitution is a dead letter. 03:54:30.690 --> 03:54:34.830 If you'd like to get a copy of this program, there are a few ways that we can 03:54:34.830 --> 03:54:35.290 help you. 03:54:35.650 --> 03:54:40.570 You may

programs. 03:54:47.110 --> 03:55:27.760 I'm Eric 03:55:48.520 --> 03:55:54.200 John Phelps and we are back with our study of the Reformation and the Jesuit Order's 03:55:54.200 --> 03:55:59.040 Counter-Reformation, which we experience every day here in the United States and as 03:55:59.040 --> 03:56:01.020 we hear of the news in the world. 03:56:02.040 --> 03:56:04.260 Reading from James J. 03:56:04.360 --> 03:56:08.840 Wiley's great masterpiece, The History of Protestantism, Volume 2. 03:56:08.840 --> 03:56:12.420 We are now in Chapter 8, Jesuits in Europe. 03:56:12.960 --> 03:56:17.360 Quote, The soldiers of Loyola are about to go forth. 03:56:18.200 --> 03:56:23.080 Before beginning the campaign, we see their chief assembling them and 03:56:23.080 --> 03:56:26.080 pointing out the field on which their proudness is to be displayed. 03:56:26.880 --> 03:56:30.960 The nations of Christendom are in revolt, namely the Protestant nations. 03:56:30.960 --> 03:56:37.200 It will be theirs to subjugate them and lay them once more bound in chains at the 03:56:37.200 --> 03:56:38.240 feet of the papal sea. 03:56:39.400 --> 03:56:40.360 They must not faint. 03:56:40.920 --> 03:56:46.880 The arms he has provided them with are amply sufficient for the arduous warfare 03:56:46.880 --> 03:56:48.340 on which he sends them. 03:56:49.280 --> 03:56:54.740 Clad in that armor and wielding it as he has been, at pains to instruct them, 03:56:55.320 --> 03:56:59.840 they will expel knowledge as night chases away the day. 03:57:00.520 --> 03:57:03.080 Liberty will die wherever their foot treads. 03:57:03.860 --> 03:57:08.600 And in the ancient darkness they will be able to rear again the fallen throne of 03:57:08.600 --> 03:57:10.860 the great hierarch of Rome, the Pope. 03:57:11.740 --> 03:57:15.260 But if the service is hard, the wages will be ample. 03:57:15.880 --> 03:57:19.580 As the saviors of that throne, they will be greater than it. 03:57:20.440 --> 03:57:24.600 And though meanwhile their work is to be done in great show of humility and 03:57:24.600 --> 03:57:30.540 poverty, the silver and the gold of Christendom will in the end be theirs. 03:57:32.380 --> 03:57:37.280 The silver and the gold of Christendom, Protestant nations, will in the end be 03:57:37.280 --> 03:57:37.600 theirs. 03:57:37.900 --> 03:57:44.680 That's the reason why the Jesuits and their SS stole all the gold out of Denmark 03:57:44.680 --> 03:57:45.940 during World War II. 03:57:46.500 --> 03:57:51.520 Denmark was a white Protestant nation, a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant nation. 03:57:51.520 --> 03:57:57.120 And when the Nazis came in there, the SSSD, working on behalf of the papacy, 03:57:57.560 --> 03:58:01.980 stole all the gold from the central bank in Denmark. 03:58:03.660 --> 03:58:05.420 Just as Wiley said they would. 03:58:06.520 --> 03:58:11.980 They will be the lords of the lands and palaces, the masters of the bodies and the 03:58:11.980 --> 03:58:13.060 souls of its inhabitants. 03:58:13.060 --> 03:58:17.860 And nothing of all that the heart can desire will be withholden from them, 03:58:18.020 --> 03:58:22.840 if only they will obey Him, the Jesuit General, or Ignatius Loyola. 03:58:24.180 --> 03:58:25.820 And so this is their grand design. 03:58:26.640 --> 03:58:28.820 This is the design they are upon today. 03:58:29.480 --> 03:58:33.980 And this is the design they will continue to do until there ceases to be a 03:58:33.980 --> 03:58:38.220 Protestant Reformation, until there ceases to be Protestant nations, until there 03:58:38.220 --> 03:58:41.040 ceases to be a Bible openly circulating among any people. 03:58:42.520 --> 03:58:46.280 Until the Pope becomes universal monarch of the world, and they will have acquired 03:58:46.280 --> 03:58:46.780 their goal. 03:58:48.840 --> 03:58:50.000 Wiley continues... 03:58:50.000 --> 03:58:54.680 The Jesuits rapidly multiplied, and we are now to follow them in their 03:58:54.680 --> 03:58:59.100 peregrinations over Europe. 03:58:59.620 --> 03:59:03.900 Going forth in little bands, animated with an entire devotion to their General, 03:59:04.400 --> 03:59:08.540 schooled in all the arts which could help to further their mission, they planted 03:59:08.540 --> 03:59:13.060 themselves in a few years in all the countries of Christendom, and made their 03:59:13.060 --> 03:59:19.700 presence felt in the turning of the tide of Protestantism, which till then had been 03:59:19.700 --> 03:59:20.480 on the flow. 03:59:21.720 --> 03:59:26.700 There was no disguise they could not assume, and therefore there was no place 03:59:26.700 --> 03:59:28.240 into which they could not penetrate. 03:59:28.900 --> 03:59:34.260 They could enter unheard the closet of a monarch, or the cabinet of a statesman. 03:59:34.260 --> 03:59:40.940 They could sit unseen in convocation or General Assembly, and mingle unsuspected 03:59:40.940 --> 03:59:43.300 in the deliberations and debates. 03:59:44.060 --> 03:59:48.780 There was no tongue they could not speak, and no creed they could not profess. 03:59:49.480 --> 03:59:54.280 And thus there was no people among whom they might not sojourn, and no church 03:59:54.280 --> 03:59:58.520 whose membership they might not enter, and whose functions they might not 03:59:58.520 --> 03:59:59.080 discharge. 04:00:00.020 --> 04:00:04.740 That means there are Jesuits who are in Protestant and Baptist churches, 04:00:05.080 --> 04:00:06.520 acting as pastors and priests. 04:00:08.120 --> 04:00:14.920 They could execrate the Pope with the Lutheran, and swear the solemn league with 04:00:14.920 --> 04:00:15.480 the Covenanter. 04:00:16.180 --> 04:00:20.500 They had their men of learning and eloquence for the halls of nobles and the 04:00:20.500 --> 04:00:21.220 courts of kings. 04:00:22.300 --> 04:00:25.380 They are men of science and letters for the education of youth. 04:00:25.380 --> 04:00:27.380 They are men like Francis Bacon. 04:00:28.220 --> 04:00:31.800 They are unpolished but ready orders to harangue the crowd. 04:00:33.640 --> 04:00:38.220 And they are plain unlettered monks to visit the cottages of the peasantry and 04:00:38.220 --> 04:00:39.960 the workshops of the artesian. 04:00:40.880 --> 04:00:47.140 I know these men, said Joseph II of Austria, writing to Chocel, the prime 04:00:47.140 --> 04:00:51.720 minister of Louis XV, that prime minister having expelled the Jesuits from France. 04:00:52.720 --> 04:00:58.420 I know these men as well as anyone can do, all the schemes they have carried on, 04:00:58.720 --> 04:01:02.880 and the pains they have taken to spread darkness over the earth, as well as their 04:01:02.880 --> 04:01:08.180 efforts to rule and embroil Europe from Cape Finisterre to Spitsbergen. 04:01:08.180 --> 04:01:14.340 In China they were Mandarins, in France Academians, Courtiers and Confessors, 04:01:14.540 --> 04:01:18.840 in Spain and Portugal Grandees, and in Paraguay Kings. 04:01:19.640 --> 04:01:24.140 Remember they ruled the Paraguayan Reductions, which totaled in excess of 04:01:24.140 --> 04:01:30.420 200,000 native Guaranian Indians that were working on these reductions, these 04:01:30.420 --> 04:01:37.780 kibbutzes, these communes, making hides and talos, and making violins, 04:01:38.040 --> 04:01:41.260 and putting all these things into international commerce and trade for the 04:01:41.260 --> 04:01:44.820 Jesuit black ships, so they could make billions and continue their wars against 04:01:44.820 --> 04:01:47.600 Protestant nations and the racial Jews. 04:01:49.440 --> 04:01:56.300 Had not my grand-uncle Joseph I became Emperor, we had in all probability seen in 04:01:56.300 --> 04:02:00.880 Germany too a Malagrida or an Alvernos. 04:02:01.740 --> 04:02:05.840 In order that they might be at liberty to visit what city and diocese they pleased, 04:02:06.180 --> 04:02:08.560 they were exempted from Episcopal jurisdiction. 04:02:09.420 --> 04:02:15.040 That means that no Jesuit is subject to any priest, to any bishop, to any 04:02:15.040 --> 04:02:16.780 archbishop, or to any cardinal. 04:02:17.700 --> 04:02:21.420 The Jesuit order is a jurisdiction within a jurisdiction. 04:02:22.100 --> 04:02:23.180 They are the police. 04:02:23.640 --> 04:02:24.840 They are the overseers. 04:02:25.160 --> 04:02:27.740 They are the SS of the Vatican. 04:02:28.160 --> 04:02:34.840 As the SS oversaw the Nazi party, the Jesuit order oversees the Roman 04:02:34.840 --> 04:02:35.300 hierarchy. 04:02:36.360 --> 04:02:40.080 And any honest priest will tell you, when a Jesuit enters his church, 04:02:40.560 --> 04:02:42.240 he gets in a cold sweat. 04:02:42.240 --> 04:02:46.300 I was told this by a prominent Roman Catholic in Reno. 04:02:47.080 --> 04:02:51.100 After which, the next question he asked me is, Why are you still alive? 04:02:52.640 --> 04:02:59.400 So the Jesuits, again, are above the law and they are above the Roman hierarchy. 04:02:59.900 --> 04:03:03.900 They are only subject to their immediate superior, and if necessary, the general 04:03:03.900 --> 04:03:04.400 himself. 04:03:07.180 --> 04:03:12.320 This arrangement was resisted at first by certain prelates, but it was universally 04:03:12.320 --> 04:03:17.240 conceded at last, and it greatly facilitated the wide and rapid diffusion 04:03:17.240 --> 04:03:18.880 of the Jesuit core. 04:03:21.000 --> 04:03:24.440 Extraordinary success attended their first efforts throughout all Italy. 04:03:25.060 --> 04:03:28.820 Designed for the common people, the order found equal acceptance from 04:03:28.820 --> 04:03:29.880 princes and nobles. 04:03:30.460 --> 04:03:33.160 So yes, they were financed by these princes and nobles. 04:03:33.320 --> 04:03:35.780 They were given wonderful castles and lands. 04:03:36.200 --> 04:03:39.260 In London, they were given Stoneyhurst by Thomas Weld. 04:03:39.500 --> 04:03:43.940 They were given and given and given and given by wealthy Roman Catholic lords and 04:03:43.940 --> 04:03:44.280 dames. 04:03:45.260 --> 04:03:49.820 And it is by this way that they became financially so powerful and politically 04:03:49.820 --> 04:03:50.640 dominating. 04:03:51.880 --> 04:03:53.980 Today, we look at America. 04:03:54.480 --> 04:03:55.880 Who are the rich men in this country? 04:03:55.880 --> 04:03:57.380 It's not the Jews. 04:03:57.800 --> 04:03:59.220 It's the Irish Roman Catholics. 04:03:59.820 --> 04:04:01.280 Men like William F. 04:04:01.400 --> 04:04:07.680 Buckley, a multi-billionaire, CFR member, Knight of Malta, Irish Roman Catholic, 04:04:08.160 --> 04:04:14.900 host of Firing Line, the man who started the magazine that is today considered to 04:04:14.900 --> 04:04:19.980 be a right-wing magazine that Ann Coulter and all the Fox people just love, 04:04:20.500 --> 04:04:21.280 the National Review. 04:04:22.960 --> 04:04:27.400 So, it's these kinds of men that prop up the Pope. 04:04:27.640 --> 04:04:30.840 Franz von Pappen, another multi-millionaire, Knight of Malta, 04:04:30.920 --> 04:04:33.280 Germany, personal friends of Pius XII. 04:04:33.540 --> 04:04:34.520 Who does he bring to power? 04:04:34.880 --> 04:04:38.760 Who is the one that is brought to power in 1933 by Franz von Pappen? 04:04:39.080 --> 04:04:39.960 Adolf Hitler! 04:04:42.100 --> 04:04:46.520 Because Hitler was the Pope's boy to carry out the Council of Trent, which I just 04:04:46.520 --> 04:04:46.860 read. 04:04:48.360 --> 04:04:54.440 Wiley continues, and I would like to go now to the Inquisition that the Jesuits 04:04:54.440 --> 04:04:54.940 ran. 04:04:55.640 --> 04:05:00.980 Because wherever there are Jesuits, there will always be an Inquisition. 04:05:02.120 --> 04:05:06.140 Wherever there are Jesuits, there will always be an Inquisition. 04:05:07.140 --> 04:05:12.940 In Nazi Germany, the Jesuits ran the SS and SD, and it was the SS who ran the 04:05:12.940 --> 04:05:13.940 concentration camps. 04:05:14.920 --> 04:05:22.420 In Stalin's Russia, USSR, the Jesuits ran the NKVD, and therefore there was the 04:05:22.420 --> 04:05:24.800 Gulag system all throughout Russia. 04:05:25.600 --> 04:05:28.540 Especially in Siberia, an old Jesuit stronghold. 04:05:29.960 --> 04:05:35.360 In America, it is coming to our country, and the Jesuits are controlling the 04:05:35.360 --> 04:05:36.940 Department of Homeland Security. 04:05:36.940 --> 04:05:42.880 The Department of Homeland Security will be America's SS, America's KGB, 04:05:43.140 --> 04:05:44.120 or NKVD. 04:05:44.640 --> 04:05:47.540 Because you see, it was the Jesuit John C. 04:05:47.680 --> 04:05:52.880 Gannon, who was a former CIA officer, given the highest award that could be 04:05:52.880 --> 04:05:55.380 given for civilian performance by George Bush. 04:05:55.940 --> 04:06:02.120 He was the one who really founded and is the backbone of the Department of Homeland 04:06:02.120 --> 04:06:02.660 Security. 04:06:02.660 --> 04:06:04.040 And this John C. 04:06:04.160 --> 04:06:08.800 Gannon is, yes, a Knight of Malta, CFR member, a former member of the Jesuit 04:06:08.800 --> 04:06:13.560 Volunteer Corps, an adjunct professor at Georgetown University, and an Irish Roman 04:06:13.560 --> 04:06:13.980 Catholic. 04:06:14.720 --> 04:06:16.520 These are the men of power in America. 04:06:17.660 --> 04:06:18.700 We continue. 04:06:20.740 --> 04:06:27.760 We leave the torture chamber in Bavaria to visit the Inquisition chamber. 04:06:27.760 --> 04:06:33.540 We go eastward about half a mile, keeping close to the northern wall of the 04:06:33.540 --> 04:06:39.380 city, till we come to an old tower styled in the common parlance of Nuremberg, 04:06:39.700 --> 04:06:40.440 the Max Tower. 04:06:41.800 --> 04:06:46.920 Interesting that it was Nuremberg in which the anti-Jew laws were passed by the 04:06:46.920 --> 04:06:47.240 Nazis. 04:06:48.460 --> 04:06:53.220 Because Nuremberg was southern Germany, Roman Catholic, and a place of Inquisition 04:06:53.220 --> 04:06:53.820 for centuries. 04:06:54.640 --> 04:07:00.440 We pull the bell and the iron handle and chain, of which are seen suspended beside 04:07:00.440 --> 04:07:01.180 the door post. 04:07:03.180 --> 04:07:08.760 The Kikoron appears, carrying a bunch of keys, a lantern, and some half dozen 04:07:08.760 --> 04:07:09.220 candles. 04:07:09.780 --> 04:07:14.440 The lantern is to show us our way, and the candles are for the purpose of 04:07:14.440 --> 04:07:21.160 being lighted and struck up at the turnings in the dark underground passages 04:07:21.160 --> 04:07:22.440 which we are about to traverse. 04:07:23.560 --> 04:07:28.620 Should mischance befall our lantern, these tapers, the beacon lights in the 04:07:28.620 --> 04:07:32.020 narrow creek, will pilot us safely back into the day. 04:07:32.800 --> 04:07:35.600 So they are going into a pitch dark tavern here. 04:07:36.880 --> 04:07:41.600 The Kikoron, selecting the largest room from the bunch of keys, inserts it in the 04:07:41.600 --> 04:07:44.480 lock of the nasty portal before which we stand. 04:07:44.480 --> 04:07:51.960 Bolt after bolt is turned, and the door, which horse-heavy groaned as it turns on 04:07:51.960 --> 04:07:54.300 its hinge, opens slowly to us. 04:07:56.480 --> 04:07:58.160 We begin to descend. 04:07:58.520 --> 04:08:00.300 We go down one flight of steps. 04:08:00.640 --> 04:08:01.720 We go down a second. 04:08:02.040 --> 04:08:03.500 We descend yet a third. 04:08:04.260 --> 04:08:05.780 And now we pause a moment. 04:08:06.100 --> 04:08:10.660 The darkness is intense, for here never came the faintest glimmer of day. 04:08:10.660 --> 04:08:15.960 But a gleam thrown forward from the lantern showed us that we were arrived at 04:08:15.960 --> 04:08:18.600 the entrance of a horizontal, narrow passage. 04:08:19.180 --> 04:08:23.360 We could see by the flickering of the light upon its sides and roof that the 04:08:23.360 --> 04:08:26.280 corridor we were traversing was hewn out of rock. 04:08:27.080 --> 04:08:31.220 We had gone only a few paces when we were brought up before a massy door. 04:08:31.760 --> 04:08:36.320 As far as the dim light served us, we could see the door, old, powdery with 04:08:36.320 --> 04:08:38.120 dust, and partly wormy. 04:08:38.800 --> 04:08:44.500 Passing in, the corridor continued, and we went forward another three paces or 04:08:44.500 --> 04:08:47.500 so when we found ourselves before a second door. 04:08:48.400 --> 04:08:52.980 We opened and shut it behind us as we did the first. 04:08:53.380 --> 04:08:56.320 Again we began to thread our way. 04:08:56.680 --> 04:08:58.100 A third door stopped us. 04:08:58.760 --> 04:09:01.200 We opened and closed it in like manner. 04:09:01.200 --> 04:09:06.440 Every step was carrying us deeper into the heart of the rock and multiplying the 04:09:06.440 --> 04:09:08.460 barriers between us and the upper world. 04:09:09.220 --> 04:09:13.080 We were shut in with the thick darkness and the awful silence. 04:09:13.740 --> 04:09:18.220 We began to realize what must have been the feelings of some unhappy disciple of 04:09:18.220 --> 04:09:22.100 the gospel, surprised by the familiars of the holy office of the Inquisition, 04:09:22.100 --> 04:09:26.840 led through the midnight streets of Nuremberg, conducted to Max Tower, 04:09:27.240 --> 04:09:32.080 led down flight after flight of stairs and along this horizontal shaft in the rock, 04:09:32.340 --> 04:09:37.360 and at every few paces a massy door with its locks and bolts closing behind him. 04:09:38.060 --> 04:09:41.860 He must have felt how utterly he was beyond the reach of human pity and human 04:09:41.860 --> 04:09:42.240 aid. 04:09:42.940 --> 04:09:48.580 No cry, however piercing, could reach the ear of man through those roofs of rock. 04:09:49.160 --> 04:09:52.640 He was entirely in the power of those who had brought him thither. 04:09:53.860 --> 04:09:56.880 At last we come to his side door in the narrow passage. 04:09:57.380 --> 04:10:03.760 We halted, applied the key, and the door, with its ancient mold, creaking harshly as 04:10:03.760 --> 04:10:07.520 if moving on a hinge long disused, opened to let us in. 04:10:18.400 --> 04:10:21.440 We found ourselves in a rather roomy chamber. 04:10:21.920 --> 04:10:23.620 It might be about twelve feet square. 04:10:24.400 --> 04:10:25.900 This was the chamber of question. 04:10:26.980 --> 04:10:29.480 Along one side of the apartment ran a low platform. 04:10:30.100 --> 04:10:34.760 There sat, of old, the Inquisitors, three in number, the first a divine, 04:10:34.980 --> 04:10:38.560 the second a casuist, and the third a civilian. 04:10:39.240 --> 04:10:42.260 The only occupant of that platform was the crucifix. 04:10:42.980 --> 04:10:48.180 Yes, the pagan crucifix, or image of the Savior on the cross, which still remained. 04:10:49.160 --> 04:10:53.780 The six candles, that usually burned before the Holy Fathers, were of course 04:10:53.780 --> 04:10:58.580 extinguished, but our lanterns supplied their place and showed us the grim 04:10:58.580 --> 04:10:59.820 furnishings of the apartment. 04:10:59.820 --> 04:11:06.020 In the middle was the horizontal rack, or bed of torture, on which the victim was 04:11:06.020 --> 04:11:11.820 stretched till bone started from bone, and his dislocated frame became the seat 04:11:11.820 --> 04:11:17.300 of agony, which was suspended only when it had reached a pitch that threatened death. 04:11:18.740 --> 04:11:22.780 Leaning against the wall of the chamber was the upright rack, with it simpler, 04:11:23.200 --> 04:11:27.380 but as an instrument of torture not less effectual than the horizontal one. 04:11:27.380 --> 04:11:33.300 There was the iron chain which wound over a pulley and hauled up the victim to the 04:11:33.300 --> 04:11:38.220 vaulted roof, and there were the two great stone weights which tied to his feet, 04:11:38.840 --> 04:11:44.400 and the iron cord let go brought him down with a jerk and dislocated his limbs, 04:11:44.400 --> 04:11:52.760 while the spiky rollers, which he grazed in his descent, cut into and excoriated 04:11:52.760 --> 04:11:57.100 his back, leaving his body a bloody, dislocated mass. 04:11:57.960 --> 04:12:03.020 Here, too, was the cradle of which we have made mention above, amply garnished within 04:12:03.020 --> 04:12:08.060 with cruel knobs, on which the sufferer, tied hand and foot, was thrown at every 04:12:08.060 --> 04:12:13.100 movement by the machine, to be bruised all over and brought forth discolored, 04:12:13.460 --> 04:12:16.200 swollen, bleeding, but still living. 04:12:16.880 --> 04:12:23.680 It's like being thrown in a dryer, and being put in that dryer for half an 04:12:23.680 --> 04:12:26.740 hour, and by the time you come out, if you're still alive, you're all bruised 04:12:26.740 --> 04:12:27.880 and broken and swollen. 04:12:28.280 --> 04:12:30.260 That's what they did in what was called the cradle. 04:12:31.960 --> 04:12:36.080 All around, ready to hand, were hung the minor instruments of torture. 04:12:36.840 --> 04:12:41.400 There were screws and thumbkins for the fingers, and thumbscrews. 04:12:41.460 --> 04:12:45.640 The Nazis used thumbscrews, and so did the KGB, and so did the CIA. 04:12:47.860 --> 04:12:54.460 Spiked collars for the neck, iron boots for the legs, gags for the mouth, 04:12:54.820 --> 04:13:03.120 clothes to cover the face, and permit the slow percolation of water, drop by drop, 04:13:03.220 --> 04:13:06.020 down the throat of the person undergoing this form of torture. 04:13:06.020 --> 04:13:10.260 There were rollers set round the spikes for bruising the arms and back. 04:13:11.000 --> 04:13:14.920 There were iron scourges, pincers, and tongs for tearing out the tongue, 04:13:15.900 --> 04:13:19.700 tearing out the tongue, splitting the nose and ears. 04:13:20.480 --> 04:13:23.680 This was done to Pim during the English Reformation. 04:13:23.680 --> 04:13:28.500 And otherwise, disfiguring and mangling the body until it was horrible and 04:13:28.500 --> 04:13:30.140 horrifying to look upon it. 04:13:30.880 --> 04:13:35.660 There were other things of which an expert could tell the name and the use. 04:13:36.380 --> 04:13:39.820 Had these instruments a tongue, and could the history of this chamber be 04:13:39.820 --> 04:13:41.520 written, how awful the tale! 04:13:42.400 --> 04:13:46.580 We shall suppose that all this has been gone through, that the confessor has been 04:13:46.580 --> 04:13:52.260 stretched on the bed of torture, has been nagged, broken, mangled, 04:13:52.380 --> 04:13:55.760 and yet, by power given him from above, has not denied his Savior. 04:13:56.540 --> 04:13:59.680 He has been, quote, tortured, not accepting deliverance, unquote. 04:13:59.680 --> 04:14:05.660 What further punishment has the Holy Office and Reserve for those from whom its 04:14:05.660 --> 04:14:08.840 torment have failed to extort a recantation? 04:14:10.000 --> 04:14:14.200 These dreadful dungeons furnish us with the means of answering this question. 04:14:15.060 --> 04:14:18.080 We return to the narrow passage and go forward a little way. 04:14:18.740 --> 04:14:21.020 Every few paces there comes a door. 04:14:22.720 --> 04:14:28.160 Originally strong and massy, and garnished with great iron knobs, but now old and 04:14:28.160 --> 04:14:32.200 moldy and creaking when opened with a noise painfully loud in the deep 04:14:32.200 --> 04:14:32.720 stillness. 04:14:33.820 --> 04:14:39.300 The windings are numerous, but at every turning of the passage a lighted candle is 04:14:39.300 --> 04:14:39.680 placed. 04:14:40.280 --> 04:14:44.180 Less peradventure, the way should be missed, and the road back to the living 04:14:44.180 --> 04:14:45.240 would be lost forever. 04:14:46.040 --> 04:14:51.000 A few steps are taken downwards very cautiously, for a lantern cannot barely 04:14:51.000 --> 04:14:51.820 show the ground. 04:14:52.600 --> 04:14:56.900 Here there is a vaulted chamber, entirely dug out of the living rock, 04:14:57.300 --> 04:15:00.180 except the roof, which is formed of hewn stone. 04:15:00.780 --> 04:15:03.780 It contains an iron image of the Virgin. 04:15:04.840 --> 04:15:06.260 This is called the Iron Maiden. 04:15:07.040 --> 04:15:11.720 Remember an album I had when I was growing up, when I was in the rock culture. 04:15:12.160 --> 04:15:15.660 The album was put out by the Iron Butterfly, and that album was called the 04:15:15.660 --> 04:15:16.540 Iron Maiden. 04:15:18.680 --> 04:15:23.760 We continue... and on the opposite wall, suspended by an iron hook, is a lamp, 04:15:23.860 --> 04:15:27.360 which when lighted shows the goodly proportions of Our Lady. 04:15:28.300 --> 04:15:33.520 On the instance of touching a spring, the image flings open its arms, 04:15:33.900 --> 04:15:39.340 which resemble the doors of a cupboard, and which are seen to be stuck full on the 04:15:39.340 --> 04:15:44.380 inside with knives, pointers, each about a foot in length. 04:15:44.380 --> 04:15:50.700 Some of these knives are so placed as to enter the eyes of those whom the image 04:15:50.700 --> 04:15:52.460 enfolded in its embrace. 04:15:53.680 --> 04:15:57.660 Others are set so as to penetrate the ears and brain. 04:15:58.460 --> 04:16:03.440 Others to pierce the breast, and others again to gore the abdomen, yes, 04:16:03.480 --> 04:16:04.120 and the growing. 04:16:05.320 --> 04:16:09.320 The person who had passed through the terrible ordeal of the Question Chamber, 04:16:09.660 --> 04:16:14.480 but had made no recantation, would be led along the torturous passage by which we 04:16:14.480 --> 04:16:18.920 had come, and ushered into this vault, where the first object that would greet 04:16:18.920 --> 04:16:26.280 his eye, the pale light of the lamp falling on it, would be the Iron Virgin, 04:16:27.780 --> 04:16:29.780 also called the Iron Maiden. 04:16:30.860 --> 04:16:32.060 He would be hidden. 04:16:32.820 --> 04:16:35.340 He would be bidden to stand right in front of the image. 04:16:35.820 --> 04:16:38.460 The spring would be touched by the executioner. 04:16:38.880 --> 04:16:43.260 The Virgin would fling open her arms, and the wretched victim would straightaway 04:16:43.260 --> 04:16:44.380 be forced within them. 04:16:44.380 --> 04:16:46.960 Another spring was then touched. 04:16:47.520 --> 04:16:49.320 The Virgin closed upon her victim. 04:16:49.900 --> 04:16:54.840 A strong wooden beam, fastened at one end to the wall by a movable joint, 04:16:55.260 --> 04:16:59.720 the other placed against the doors of the iron image, was worked by a screw, 04:17:00.400 --> 04:17:05.460 and as the beam was pushed out, the spiky arms of the Virgin slowly but 04:17:05.460 --> 04:17:09.100 irresistibly closed upon the man, and did their work. 04:17:09.100 --> 04:17:14.120 When the dreadful business was ended, it needed not that the executioner should 04:17:14.120 --> 04:17:19.620 put himself to the trouble of making the Virgin unclasp the mangled carcass of her 04:17:19.620 --> 04:17:19.900 victim. 04:17:20.760 --> 04:17:23.800 Provision had been made for its quick and secret disposal. 04:17:24.520 --> 04:17:29.220 At the touching of a third spring, the floor of the image would slide aside, 04:17:29.660 --> 04:17:33.980 and the body of the victim dropped down the mouth of a perpendicular shaft in the 04:17:33.980 --> 04:17:34.240 rock. 04:17:34.960 --> 04:17:41.220 Down this pit, at great depth, would be discerned the shimmer of water. 04:17:42.040 --> 04:17:46.260 A canal had been made to flow underneath the vault where stood the iron Virgin, 04:17:46.760 --> 04:17:50.480 and when she had done her work upon those who were delivered over to her tender 04:17:50.480 --> 04:17:56.900 mercies, she let them fall with quick descent and sullen plunge into the canal 04:17:56.900 --> 04:18:02.720 underneath, where they were floated to the pigrets, and from the pigrets to the rind, 04:18:02.720 --> 04:18:09.080 and by the rind to the ocean, there to sleep beside the dust of Hus and Jerome. 04:18:10.540 --> 04:18:13.540 This, dear friends, is the holy office of the Inquisition. 04:18:13.920 --> 04:18:19.040 This is what the Jesuits instituted in Nuremberg, Germany, and all throughout 04:18:19.040 --> 04:18:19.420 Europe. 04:18:19.420 --> 04:18:25.380 And this is what they always will have wherever they are in control of a 04:18:25.380 --> 04:18:25.760 government. 04:18:26.200 --> 04:18:30.820 And that is why we will have an Inquisition here in America, because it is 04:18:30.820 --> 04:18:35.800 here that they are in complete and total control of the American government through 04:18:35.800 --> 04:18:37.160 the Council on Foreign Relations. 04:18:39.180 --> 04:18:41.760 Such is the history of Protestantism by Wiley. 04:18:42.620 --> 04:18:48.520 Now we shall go to a book that I include in the 13 old books with my CD, 04:18:49.220 --> 04:18:55.500 and this book is called The Crisis, The Enemies of America Unmasked. 04:18:56.520 --> 04:19:01.860 And we shall see now that it was written in 1855 by Wayne Lawrence, a great 04:19:01.860 --> 04:19:07.000 patriot, who exposed the power of the Jesuits, and which this book is completely 04:19:07.000 --> 04:19:08.380 impossible to find. 04:19:09.380 --> 04:19:11.780 In chapter 1 we read Jesuit influence. 04:19:12.760 --> 04:19:17.580 An American gentleman was passenger on board a merchant ship bound from London to 04:19:17.580 --> 04:19:18.240 Rio de Janeiro. 04:19:19.020 --> 04:19:22.340 There were among the passengers Englishmen, Germans, Frenchmen, 04:19:22.480 --> 04:19:26.920 Spaniards, and Portuguese, but the person we referred to was the only American. 04:19:26.920 --> 04:19:31.480 Between himself and the English gentleman there were frequent discussions about 04:19:31.480 --> 04:19:36.180 politics, to which such of the other passengers as could speak English would 04:19:36.180 --> 04:19:37.720 listen, sometimes taken apart. 04:19:38.520 --> 04:19:42.240 Of course our American was a great friend of the institutions of his own country, 04:19:42.640 --> 04:19:46.520 and defended Republican forms of government, freedom of speech and of the 04:19:46.520 --> 04:19:51.380 press, the vote by ballot, and all the other elements of popular sovereignty 04:19:51.380 --> 04:19:52.440 through thick and thin. 04:19:53.220 --> 04:19:58.440 Assailed on every side he found his office of champion of freedom, no signature. 04:19:59.760 --> 04:20:04.580 Every calm morning and every pleasant evening witnessed a new controversy on the 04:20:04.580 --> 04:20:09.640 deck or in the cabin, but he manfully held his ground against a host of adversaries, 04:20:10.100 --> 04:20:14.360 and being fluent in speech, strong in argument, skilled in logic, and full of 04:20:14.360 --> 04:20:18.240 lively and sarcastic humor, he generally came out of the debate with honor, 04:20:18.740 --> 04:20:22.200 taking care always to terminate the action at precisely the right moment. 04:20:24.720 --> 04:20:30.100 Among the persons who listened with the greatest attention to these debates was a 04:20:30.100 --> 04:20:34.540 lean, bilious-looking old Frenchman, who always took care to be present, 04:20:35.100 --> 04:20:39.200 and who showed by his look and manner that he was deeply interested in politics, 04:20:39.760 --> 04:20:44.900 although he never by any chance uttered an opinion or made a remark on political 04:20:44.900 --> 04:20:47.280 subjects in the general circle of the passengers. 04:20:48.120 --> 04:20:53.340 In point of fact, this man was a Roman Catholic priest, a Jesuit of high standing 04:20:53.340 --> 04:20:57.980 who was going to some station in South America in obedience to an order from his 04:20:57.980 --> 04:20:58.300 superior. 04:20:59.240 --> 04:21:04.780 He was a cosmopolitan, indeed, a world citizen. 04:21:05.500 --> 04:21:09.420 Though not much past the middle point of life, he was rather aged in appearance, 04:21:10.060 --> 04:21:13.500 in consequence of the great variety and extent of the missions which he had 04:21:13.500 --> 04:21:17.240 performed in all quarters of the world and in every kind of climate. 04:21:17.800 --> 04:21:22.360 From Canada to Calcutta, from the breezy heights of the Andes to the unwholesome 04:21:22.360 --> 04:21:28.160 marshes of Java, by sea and by land, in season and out of season, this man had 04:21:28.160 --> 04:21:30.620 journeyed on the secret errands of his order. 04:21:31.300 --> 04:21:35.680 Speaking fluently a dozen different languages and possessing the most perfect 04:21:35.680 --> 04:21:40.000 power of dissimulation, as well as the most thorough devotedness to the church 04:21:40.000 --> 04:21:44.580 and those carefully trained habits of obedience which are so essential to the 04:21:44.580 --> 04:21:49.440 character of an able and faithful Jesuit, he had at length become one of the most 04:21:49.440 --> 04:21:51.280 accomplished men of his age. 04:21:52.280 --> 04:21:56.600 As he listened to the conversation of the American passenger, he could not help 04:21:56.600 --> 04:22:00.420 noticing that he was gradually making converts to Republican views. 04:22:01.160 --> 04:22:05.080 Many of these passengers, he observed, sought private interviews with the 04:22:05.080 --> 04:22:10.200 American, and by careful eavesdropping he ascertained that their object was to ask 04:22:10.200 --> 04:22:14.580 questions about his country and gain information respecting the actual working 04:22:14.580 --> 04:22:17.520 of the American attempt at self-government. 04:22:18.160 --> 04:22:22.380 When the passage was nearly over, the Frenchman, happening to be alone with 04:22:22.380 --> 04:22:26.860 the American in a retired part of the deck where their conversation could not be 04:22:26.860 --> 04:22:29.440 overheard, commenced a quiet chat with him. 04:22:30.540 --> 04:22:34.440 Addressing him in English, which he spoke with ease and precision, he thanked him 04:22:34.440 --> 04:22:38.500 with apparent cordiality for the entertainment he had derived from his 04:22:38.500 --> 04:22:43.200 conversation, or rather eloquent haranguing to the other passengers during 04:22:43.200 --> 04:22:43.720 the voyage. 04:22:43.720 --> 04:22:48.380 He professed to have enjoyed their debates very greatly, and gave the American due 04:22:48.380 --> 04:22:52.740 credit for his wit, his logic, his humor, his address, and his unbounded 04:22:52.740 --> 04:22:53.260 good nature. 04:22:54.160 --> 04:22:58.280 The American was much pleased at his compliments, for he had conceived a great 04:22:58.280 --> 04:23:02.980 respect for this silent and attentive auditor, and in fact had in his own secret 04:23:02.980 --> 04:23:05.940 mind set him down as a hopeful convert to Americanism. 04:23:05.940 --> 04:23:10.440 He thanked him, therefore with much feeling, for his good opinion, 04:23:11.060 --> 04:23:15.240 at the same time disclaiming any merit for success in defending a truth so 04:23:15.240 --> 04:23:20.240 self-evident as that which is expressed in these few words, that a nation ought to 04:23:20.240 --> 04:23:24.180 govern itself, and that by the popular vote of its own citizens. 04:23:25.880 --> 04:23:31.000 This, said the Jesuit with a quiet smile, you suppose to be the system of your own 04:23:31.000 --> 04:23:31.420 country? 04:23:32.220 --> 04:23:33.520 By the way, this is 1855. 04:23:34.660 --> 04:23:37.580 I do not suppose it, said the American, I know it. 04:23:39.060 --> 04:23:44.300 Now, said the Jesuit, listen to me a few moments, and I will tell you what I know. 04:23:45.080 --> 04:23:50.160 Your president is elected by the conclave of cardinals at Rome, the same who elect 04:23:50.160 --> 04:23:50.600 the Pope. 04:23:51.140 --> 04:23:53.000 Your people nominate the candidates. 04:23:53.600 --> 04:23:57.640 Our confidential agents select from the number the one whom they believe to be the 04:23:57.640 --> 04:23:59.440 most favorable to the interests of the Church. 04:24:00.320 --> 04:24:03.620 His name with those of the other candidates is reported to the cardinals 04:24:03.620 --> 04:24:04.140 and the Pope. 04:24:04.140 --> 04:24:08.780 When their decision is announced to the confidential friends of the Pope and the 04:24:08.780 --> 04:24:12.560 cardinals in the United States, they send forth their orders through the 04:24:12.560 --> 04:24:18.260 priests, and the whole Roman Catholic vote is thrown for the candidate who is favored 04:24:18.260 --> 04:24:19.000 by the Church. 04:24:19.780 --> 04:24:21.620 This is how Henry Clay lost his election. 04:24:21.620 --> 04:24:24.080 He, of course, is always elected. 04:24:24.720 --> 04:24:29.460 Your parties are so equally divided on politics that this Roman Catholic vote, 04:24:29.740 --> 04:24:34.360 which is cast on purely religious considerations, is always sufficient to 04:24:34.360 --> 04:24:39.360 turn the scale." The American looked rather blank at this announcement. 04:24:39.860 --> 04:24:43.940 He was quite taken back, especially was he staggered by the fact 04:25:19.490 --> 04:25:20.590 that he was the only candidate. 04:25:21.510 --> 04:25:22.570 Fight the fight. 04:25:22.850 --> 04:25:24.190 We are here to equip you. 04:25:24.530 --> 04:25:26.970 Let our motto be, don't tread on me. 04:25:27.850 -->

you fight? 04:27:36.840 --> 04:27:40.020 And the most often given answer is, because you're here. 04:27:40.460 --> 04:27:43.060 In other words, the South did not invade the North. 04:27:43.160 --> 04:27:44.560 The North invaded the South. 04:27:44.560 --> 04:27:49.280 Was it the Civil War or War of Federal Aggression? 04:27:49.620 --> 04:27:54.720 John Weaver sets the record straight in this

we were reading concerning the 04:29:11.180 --> 04:29:12.320 American and the Jesuit. 04:29:13.960 --> 04:29:16.960 The American looked rather blank at this announcement. 04:29:17.300 --> 04:29:22.860 He was quite taken back that the Pope and the College of Cardinals chose the 04:29:22.860 --> 04:29:25.820 American presidents as early as 1855. 04:29:26.960 --> 04:29:30.820 Especially was he staggered by the recollection that the candidate for the 04:29:30.820 --> 04:29:35.580 presidency, who was sustained by the Irish and German votes, was generally 04:29:35.580 --> 04:29:36.220 successful. 04:29:36.820 --> 04:29:41.340 He courteously thanked the Jesuits for the valuable information which he had 04:29:41.340 --> 04:29:41.920 communicated. 04:29:42.560 --> 04:29:47.400 And during the short remainder of the voyage, he abstained from talking politics 04:29:47.400 --> 04:29:48.900 and gave himself up to reflection. 04:29:50.180 --> 04:29:52.560 Let us also reflect a little on the Jesuit story. 04:29:53.260 --> 04:29:58.080 Perhaps it was a hoax or a mere idle brag intended to annoy and mortify the 04:29:58.080 --> 04:29:58.500 American. 04:29:59.220 --> 04:30:02.140 But is it not the main point of his declaration true? 04:30:02.880 --> 04:30:06.380 Is it not true that in many various central points this country is governed by 04:30:06.380 --> 04:30:07.180 foreign influence? 04:30:07.880 --> 04:30:12.200 Is it not even highly probable that Roman Catholic prelates have a voice in the 04:30:12.200 --> 04:30:17.040 selection of candidates for very high as well as low offices, even for that of the 04:30:17.040 --> 04:30:17.900 president himself? 04:30:18.560 --> 04:30:24.480 Was not Mr. Polk, a man of no mark as a statesman and comparatively unknown to the 04:30:24.480 --> 04:30:29.440 country, elected in opposition to Henry Clay, immeasurably the most able and 04:30:29.440 --> 04:30:30.940 popular man in the United States? 04:30:30.940 --> 04:30:36.300 And was not this accomplished by the Roman Catholics voting against him en masse 04:30:36.300 --> 04:30:40.520 because he was suspected, and only suspected, of favoring the Native American 04:30:40.520 --> 04:30:40.900 movement? 04:30:42.200 --> 04:30:44.360 By the way, the Native American movement is what we all should be. 04:30:44.700 --> 04:30:46.200 America should be for the Americans. 04:30:46.860 --> 04:30:49.980 And that if immigrants come here, they adopt American ways, they speak 04:30:49.980 --> 04:30:53.560 English, they learn the Bible in public schools, and they become nationalists. 04:30:55.840 --> 04:31:00.920 The movers of this foreign political machinery in this country are the members 04:31:00.920 --> 04:31:03.020 of two secret societies. 04:31:03.620 --> 04:31:08.640 One is composed of the regular Roman Catholic priests, always and everywhere a 04:31:08.640 --> 04:31:09.420 secret society. 04:31:09.420 --> 04:31:15.560 The other is the Society of Jesus, as it is profanely called, in other words, 04:31:15.620 --> 04:31:16.840 the Society of Jesuits. 04:31:17.420 --> 04:31:21.860 All history, past and present, gives assurance that these precious 04:31:21.860 --> 04:31:28.180 gentlemen are not too surreptitiously pious to take a hand in the game of 04:31:28.180 --> 04:31:28.720 politics. 04:31:29.900 --> 04:31:34.800 So we give the character of the Order of Jesuits in the words of one of the ablest 04:31:34.800 --> 04:31:36.820 and best informed historians of the present day. 04:32:00.400 --> 04:32:04.600 Protestantism, which had, during the whole generation, carried all before it, 04:32:05.000 --> 04:32:09.940 was stopped in its progress and rapidly beaten back from the foot of the Alps to 04:32:09.940 --> 04:32:11.160 the shores of the Baltic. 04:32:11.820 --> 04:32:16.400 Before the Order had existed a hundred years, it had filled the whole world with 04:32:16.400 --> 04:32:19.800 memorials of great things done and suffered for the faith. 04:32:19.860 --> 04:32:22.660 We also have to remember the Thirty Years' War that they started. 04:32:23.800 --> 04:32:27.980 No religious community could produce a list of men so variously distinguished. 04:32:28.620 --> 04:32:33.560 None had extended its operations over so vast a space, yet in none had there ever 04:32:33.560 --> 04:32:35.760 been such perfect unity of feeling and action. 04:32:36.400 --> 04:32:41.520 There was no region of the globe, no walk of speculative or active life in 04:32:41.520 --> 04:32:43.260 which Jesuits were not to be found. 04:32:43.960 --> 04:32:45.840 They guided the councils of kings. 04:32:46.480 --> 04:32:47.960 They deciphered Latin inscriptions. 04:32:48.500 --> 04:32:50.440 They observed the motions of Jupiter's satellites. 04:32:50.880 --> 04:32:53.840 They published whole libraries, controversy, casuatry, history, 04:32:54.180 --> 04:33:01.740 treaties and optics, Alkik Odes, Editions of the Fathers, Catechisms and 04:33:01.740 --> 04:33:02.360 Lampoons. 04:33:03.280 --> 04:33:06.800 The liberal education of youth was passed almost entirely into their hands, 04:33:06.900 --> 04:33:10.600 as it is in America today, and was conducted by them with great ability. 04:33:10.600 --> 04:33:15.100 They seem to have discovered the precise point in which intellectual culture can be 04:33:15.100 --> 04:33:17.460 carried without risk of intellectual emancipation. 04:33:19.180 --> 04:33:21.680 Amnesty itself was compelled to own that. 04:33:21.960 --> 04:33:26.420 In the art of managing and forming the tender mind, they had no equals. 04:33:27.560 --> 04:33:32.120 The Jesuits have a saying, as the twig is bent, so grows the tree. 04:33:33.140 --> 04:33:38.600 They also say, give me your son as a youth, and by the age of seven, 04:33:38.920 --> 04:33:42.200 he will be Roman Catholic devoted to us for the rest of his life. 04:33:44.960 --> 04:33:50.200 With still greater assuity, and still greater certainty, they committed 04:33:50.200 --> 04:33:52.460 themselves to the ministry of the confessional. 04:33:53.700 --> 04:33:57.080 Throughout Catholic Europe, the secrets of every government and almost every family 04:33:57.080 --> 04:33:58.340 of note were in their keeping. 04:33:59.120 --> 04:34:03.540 They glided from one Protestant country to another, under innuable disguises, 04:34:03.940 --> 04:34:07.840 as gay cavaliers, as simple rustics, as Puritan preachers. 04:34:08.340 --> 04:34:13.560 They wandered to countries which neither mercantile avidity nor liberal curiosity 04:34:13.560 --> 04:34:15.800 had ever impelled any stranger to explore. 04:34:16.280 --> 04:34:20.680 They were to be found in the garb of mandarins, superintending the observatory 04:34:20.680 --> 04:34:21.180 in Peking. 04:34:21.680 --> 04:34:25.760 They were to be found spade in hand, teaching the rudiments of agriculture to 04:34:25.760 --> 04:34:27.140 the savages of Paraguay. 04:34:27.140 --> 04:34:30.860 Yet whatever might be their residence, whatever might be their employment, 04:34:31.300 --> 04:34:37.440 their spirit was the same, entire devotion to the common cause, implicit obedience to 04:34:37.440 --> 04:34:38.460 the central authority. 04:34:39.500 --> 04:34:43.980 None of them had chosen his dwelling place or his abdication for himself. 04:34:44.800 --> 04:34:49.000 Whether the Jesuit should live under the Arctic Circle or the equator, whether he 04:34:49.000 --> 04:34:53.100 should pass his life in arranging gems and correlating manuscripts in the Vatican, 04:34:53.100 --> 04:34:57.260 or in persuading naked barbarians in the southern hemisphere not to eat each other, 04:34:57.920 --> 04:35:01.500 were matters which he left with profound submission to the decision of others. 04:35:02.280 --> 04:35:06.560 If he was wanted at Lima, he was on the Atlantic in the next fleet. 04:35:07.100 --> 04:35:10.400 If he was wanted at Baghdad, he was toiling through the desert with the next 04:35:10.400 --> 04:35:10.860 caravan. 04:35:11.500 --> 04:35:15.240 If his ministry was needed in some country where his life was more insecure than that 04:35:15.240 --> 04:35:20.520 of a wolf, where it was a crime to harbor him, where the heads and quarters of his 04:35:20.520 --> 04:35:25.440 brethren fixed on the public places showed him what he had to expect, he went without 04:35:25.440 --> 04:35:28.180 remonstrance or hesitation to his doom. 04:35:29.120 --> 04:35:33.700 But with this admirable energy, disinterestedness and self-devotion, 04:35:34.080 --> 04:35:39.240 which were characteristics of great vices were mingled. 04:35:40.100 --> 04:35:43.500 It was alleged, and not without foundation, that the ardent public spirit, 04:35:43.500 --> 04:35:47.400 which made the Jesuit, regardless of his ease, of his liberty and of his life, 04:35:47.480 --> 04:35:52.320 made him also, regardless of truth and of mercy, that no means which could promote 04:35:52.320 --> 04:35:56.220 the interest of his religion seemed to him unlawful, and that by the interest of his 04:35:56.220 --> 04:35:59.420 religion he too often meant the interest of his society. 04:36:01.000 --> 04:36:04.880 This is the Jesuit, and we have Jesuit co-adjutors. 04:36:05.920 --> 04:36:07.300 Men like G. 04:36:07.420 --> 04:36:08.080 Gordon Liddy. 04:36:09.240 --> 04:36:14.340 We continue on, and we now want to evaluate, in these last few minutes, 04:36:14.860 --> 04:36:16.960 the Jesuit position on the Jew. 04:36:17.600 --> 04:36:19.840 The Jesuit position on the Jew. 04:36:20.360 --> 04:36:21.460 We read from E. 04:36:21.460 --> 04:36:25.520 Boyd Barrett, a former Jesuit, in a book that he wrote after he left the 04:36:25.520 --> 04:36:27.560 order Rome stoops to conquer. 04:36:29.040 --> 04:36:35.480 Page 179, quote, The Jesuits, as is well known, exercise immense influence in the 04:36:35.480 --> 04:36:38.840 government of the Church and the formation of its policies and doctrines. 04:36:39.460 --> 04:36:44.740 They stand ever at the Pope's right hand, his intellectual and spiritual bodyguard, 04:36:46.380 --> 04:36:49.900 and they compose the Pope's bodyguard of lies for his protection. 04:36:50.380 --> 04:36:55.500 The mighty defenders of the faith, they are as a body, changeless, 04:36:58.860 --> 04:37:00.400 as the Church herself. 04:37:00.920 --> 04:37:04.640 Only in a slightly lesser degree than the Church do they lay claim to divine 04:37:04.640 --> 04:37:07.640 protection, divine inspiration, and fallibility. 04:37:08.720 --> 04:37:12.440 Owing to an earlier experience of a painful kind which was all but disastrous 04:37:12.440 --> 04:37:16.480 to the order, and which was due to a group of Spanish Jesuits of Jewish descent, 04:37:16.860 --> 04:37:21.440 who threatened to dismember the order, the Jesuits as a body have conceived and 04:37:21.440 --> 04:37:24.200 fostered an intense animosity against the Jews. 04:37:25.120 --> 04:37:30.720 Never since the days of the Great Storm, which was in the 1590s, as Cardinal 04:37:30.720 --> 04:37:35.480 Tulloch's revolt was called, has anyone of Jewish blood or descent been admitted into 04:37:35.480 --> 04:37:35.940 the order. 04:37:36.340 --> 04:37:38.080 Remember, this was written prior to 1946. 04:37:39.080 --> 04:37:43.800 Never since that day has the order ceased to pursue vindictively the Jews. 04:37:44.520 --> 04:37:48.060 The spirit of the order can be gleaned from the extraordinary prayer of the 04:37:48.060 --> 04:37:53.360 greatest of Jesuit saints, Francis Xavier, quote, Put me some place where there are 04:37:53.360 --> 04:37:56.060 no Jews or Muslims, cried Francis. 04:37:57.180 --> 04:38:01.880 Put me some place where there are no Jews or Muslims, cried Francis. 04:38:03.140 --> 04:38:05.100 Throws great light on the present crusade today. 04:38:05.760 --> 04:38:10.260 The present writer who spent twenty years in the Jesuit order can recall no single 04:38:10.260 --> 04:38:14.480 occasion on which a word of praise for Jewish achievement or a word of sympathy 04:38:14.480 --> 04:38:17.220 for Jewish suffering was uttered by a Jesuit. 04:38:18.640 --> 04:38:22.380 The Jesuits in the days when they controlled every Catholic court in Europe 04:38:22.380 --> 04:38:26.400 and when as an order they were swollen with pride, were challenged by a like 04:38:26.400 --> 04:38:29.460 pride and a like intellectual intolerance by the Jew. 04:38:30.060 --> 04:38:32.080 They could not break or bend the Jew. 04:38:32.480 --> 04:38:37.040 They could convert or seemingly convert every type of human from Japanese to 04:38:37.040 --> 04:38:41.660 Prophetic Parisian, but they could make no headway in leading Israel into the fold of 04:38:41.660 --> 04:38:42.280 Mother Church. 04:38:43.160 --> 04:38:48.220 They ceased to look upon the Jew as a lost sheep and identified him with an incarnate 04:38:48.220 --> 04:38:50.900 devil, the sworn enemy of the Catholic. 04:38:51.480 --> 04:38:56.120 They hated the Jews because the Jews did not bow in homage before them. 04:38:57.560 --> 04:39:01.900 In substantiating these statements, I will confine myself to two recent 04:39:01.900 --> 04:39:04.040 writings of two prominent Jesuits, Fr. 04:39:04.140 --> 04:39:06.220 Francis Xavier Murphy and Fr. 04:39:06.340 --> 04:39:06.960 Lawrence K. 04:39:07.060 --> 04:39:07.500 Patterson. 04:39:07.940 --> 04:39:11.140 Both writings were censored and passed by Jesuit superiors. 04:39:11.140 --> 04:39:17.780 And being such bear the watermark of the authority of the order. 04:39:19.080 --> 04:39:20.280 What do these men say? 04:39:21.220 --> 04:39:23.260 Here then is the Jesuit teaching about the Jew. 04:39:23.700 --> 04:39:26.340 The words that I write between quotation marks are from Fr. 04:39:26.440 --> 04:39:27.100 Murphy's article. 04:39:28.060 --> 04:39:29.460 The Jew is ubiquitous. 04:39:30.180 --> 04:39:34.540 Like Chaucer's friar, he instruments himself everywhere. 04:39:35.360 --> 04:39:36.760 He is a troublemaker. 04:39:37.600 --> 04:39:39.420 Where he is, there is trouble. 04:39:40.620 --> 04:39:41.020 Fr. 04:39:41.140 --> 04:39:45.320 Murphy's heart feels sometimes pity for the Jew, even when his intellect tells him 04:39:45.320 --> 04:39:47.120 that the Jew is getting what it was coming to him. 04:39:47.540 --> 04:39:49.800 Quote, my feeling is not always against the Jew. 04:39:50.220 --> 04:39:53.780 No man can read his past history without feeling deeply for him, even where his 04:39:53.780 --> 04:39:57.840 reason may tell him that the Jew is simply bearing the human or divine retribution of 04:39:57.840 --> 04:39:58.300 his acts. 04:39:58.420 --> 04:39:58.800 Unquote. 04:40:00.520 --> 04:40:01.600 He goes on, Fr. 04:40:01.720 --> 04:40:05.400 Murphy finds proof in the Bible that the Jews were fierce, truculent, coarse, 04:40:05.540 --> 04:40:09.740 sensual, crafty, cruel, and rises from the perusal of the sacred text with an 04:40:09.740 --> 04:40:11.720 unfavorable notion of the Jews. 04:40:12.380 --> 04:40:12.700 Unquote. 04:40:13.080 --> 04:40:17.900 He adds, what the Jew was in Holy Writ, we may justly expect to find him down the 04:40:17.900 --> 04:40:18.300 ages. 04:40:19.260 --> 04:40:19.860 Quote, unquote. 04:40:20.000 --> 04:40:23.480 Namely, quote, fierce and sensual beyond the Aryan. 04:40:23.720 --> 04:40:28.780 So here are the Jesuits talking about Aryan supremacy before the rise of the 04:40:28.780 --> 04:40:29.560 Nazi party. 04:40:33.760 --> 04:40:39.480 Boyd concludes, and I'll skip a few pages, when he says this. 04:40:41.840 --> 04:40:46.220 If we now turn to glance at authentic records of Jesuit history, we find that 04:40:46.220 --> 04:40:49.320 there is hardly an accusation that the Jesuits make against the Jews, 04:40:49.740 --> 04:40:52.020 but is strangely out of place in their mouths. 04:40:52.760 --> 04:40:57.580 The Jesuits accused the Jews of being meddlers and troublemakers. 04:40:58.660 --> 04:41:01.900 The Jesuits were suppressed by Proclamant XIV because they had meddled in every 04:41:01.900 --> 04:41:04.780 conceivable business from trade to politics, and their suppression was 04:41:04.780 --> 04:41:07.800 necessary, quote, to restore tranquility to the church, unquote. 04:41:10.600 --> 04:41:16.080 Boyd Barrett concludes and says, it comes badly from the Jesuits to attempt 04:41:16.080 --> 04:41:20.120 to promulgate anti-Semitism on the basis of charges that have been not only 04:41:20.120 --> 04:41:24.000 officially made, but believed and acted upon by the supreme and infallible pontiff 04:41:24.000 --> 04:41:26.840 of the Roman Catholic Church when made against themselves. 04:41:27.560 --> 04:41:30.960 People in glass houses are foolish to throw stones. 04:41:30.960 --> 04:41:36.040 What the Jesuits accused the Jews of being, that is what the Jesuits are. 04:41:36.940 --> 04:41:41.340 The Jesuits hate the Jews, they have always hated the Jews, and they will 04:41:41.340 --> 04:41:42.360 forever hate the Jews. 04:41:42.680 --> 04:41:45.560 And the Jesuits in this country control the NSA. 04:41:46.280 --> 04:41:51.660 Let's see what John Loftus has to say about the NSA in The Secret War Against 04:41:51.660 --> 04:41:53.840 the Jews, written by Loftus and Ahrens. 04:41:54.400 --> 04:42:00.540 On page 193 we read, Shortly after the Clinton administration took office, 04:42:00.680 --> 04:42:03.580 the intelligent community withdrew its previous objections to publication. 04:42:04.320 --> 04:42:07.900 In fact, many of the pieces of the jigsaw already had passed into the public domain. 04:42:08.580 --> 04:42:13.960 In 1982, James Bamford published his seminal history of the NSA, The Puzzle 04:42:13.960 --> 04:42:21.100 Palace, which disclosed some of the main points of the NSA GCHO liaison. 04:42:21.100 --> 04:42:25.600 The National Archives have been given dozens of declassified FBI documents, 04:42:25.840 --> 04:42:29.800 citing British intelligence as a source of its information on Jews in the United 04:42:29.800 --> 04:42:30.220 States. 04:42:30.720 --> 04:42:34.400 And finally, in 1991, a pair of British authors confirmed a portion of the 04:42:34.400 --> 04:42:36.240 espionage on American Jews. 04:42:40.060 --> 04:42:45.140 Adam Gold calls one former intelligence official who was cleared to see the Gold 04:42:45.140 --> 04:42:45.640 reports. 04:42:46.220 --> 04:42:50.520 We knew who was shipping the arms, who was paying for them, who was being 04:42:50.520 --> 04:42:53.920 paid in this country, every illegal thing that was going on in this country. 04:42:54.220 --> 04:42:57.740 Because of politics, very little was ever done with this intelligence. 04:42:58.240 --> 04:43:02.540 But so far as I know, the National Security Agency still has a group like 04:43:02.540 --> 04:43:04.580 that buried somewhere deep. 04:43:06.100 --> 04:43:07.740 It does indeed. 04:43:08.720 --> 04:43:10.640 Its nickname is the Jew Room. 04:43:11.700 --> 04:43:13.720 Its nickname is the Jew Room. 04:43:14.080 --> 04:43:19.460 Inside the National Security Agency is an intelligence center from which all 04:43:19.460 --> 04:43:25.420 American Jews are banned, regardless of their proven loyalty or devotion to 04:43:25.420 --> 04:43:27.960 country, just as the U.S. 04:43:28.040 --> 04:43:32.280 Navy banned Jews from electronic surveillance ships such as the USS 04:43:32.280 --> 04:43:32.800 Liberty. 04:43:33.460 --> 04:43:38.980 The Jew Room is where the United States and Britain spy on Israel and on anyone 04:43:38.980 --> 04:43:40.020 who supports Israel. 04:43:40.480 --> 04:43:44.600 Its name is a misnomer, as the intelligence center has more than one room 04:43:44.600 --> 04:43:46.300 and more than one agency. 04:43:46.920 --> 04:43:52.440 As we shall see in the following chapters, it is and has been the heart of the secret 04:43:52.440 --> 04:43:54.000 war against the Jews. 04:43:54.700 --> 04:43:59.380 What Loftus knows, being the Jesuit-Temple coadjutor that he is, an Irish Roman 04:43:59.380 --> 04:44:05.940 Catholic, trained by Jesuits at Fordham University, I believe, and he was in the 04:44:05.940 --> 04:44:11.560 Justice Department for many years, Loftus rightly paints a picture of a world 04:44:11.560 --> 04:44:16.420 of intelligence against the Lord's beloved Hebrew-Jewish-Israelitish people. 04:44:17.440 --> 04:44:21.980 And one of the things he points out in his great epic work, The Secret War Against 04:44:21.980 --> 04:44:26.800 the Jews, How Western Espionage Betrayed the Jewish People by John Loftus and Mark 04:44:26.800 --> 04:44:31.980 Ahrens, he points out this NSA room called the Jew Room. 04:44:33.040 --> 04:44:34.220 The Jew Room. 04:44:35.660 --> 04:44:38.720 Does not this have Jesuit pretensions? 04:44:39.960 --> 04:44:42.980 Does not this show a Jesuit hand ruling the NSA? 04:44:44.520 --> 04:44:50.180 Do not the Jesuits hate the Jews and have hated them throughout the duration of 04:44:50.180 --> 04:44:50.700 their order? 04:44:51.760 --> 04:44:56.420 Did not the Jesuits control not only Hitler, who killed many millions of Jews, 04:44:56.620 --> 04:44:59.160 but also Stalin, who aided Hitler in the murder? 04:45:00.600 --> 04:45:02.440 You see, Hitler and Stalin worked together. 04:45:02.840 --> 04:45:04.340 Both were tutored by Jesuits. 04:45:04.340 --> 04:45:08.700 Both were in office by the power of the Jesuit order, and both carried out the 04:45:08.700 --> 04:45:14.740 annihilation of the Pale of Settlement, that had been begun by Czar Nicholas I, 04:45:14.760 --> 04:45:16.660 who entered into a concordat with the Pope. 04:45:17.880 --> 04:45:19.080 This was all planned. 04:45:19.480 --> 04:45:23.920 Hitler and Stalin working together, not only for the destruction of the racial 04:45:23.920 --> 04:45:28.580 Jews in the Pale of Settlement, but for the Gentile Protestant Prussians 04:45:28.580 --> 04:45:31.860 of Prussia, and for the Orthodox peoples of Russia. 04:45:31.860 --> 04:45:37.180 Both these dictators working together for the annihilation of these heretics and 04:45:37.180 --> 04:45:39.960 liberals, according to the Council of Trent. 04:45:40.880 --> 04:45:46.980 And after the war, this entire fascist network was saved by the power of the 04:45:46.980 --> 04:45:50.860 Vatican rat lines, as Loftus writes in his book on the Unholy Trinity. 04:45:52.080 --> 04:45:56.800 And they are saved to continue this fascist plot of the Vatican, with the 04:45:56.800 --> 04:46:02.680 billions in gold that they had stolen from the Far Eastern nations, and from the 04:46:02.680 --> 04:46:07.880 European peoples, so that today we have an internationalist fascist intelligence 04:46:07.880 --> 04:46:11.900 community, controlled at the top by the Jesuits through their Knights of Malta. 04:46:12.440 --> 04:46:17.200 And it is this intelligence community, which includes the NSA, high level CIA 04:46:17.200 --> 04:46:23.860 officers, high level FBI officers, that are all in secret war against the 04:46:23.860 --> 04:46:29.020 Jews of North America, all six million of them, the greatest haven in the world of 04:46:29.020 --> 04:46:33.760 the world's Jews, and therefore we know that they are targeted for extermination, 04:46:34.040 --> 04:46:39.780 because it is the Jesuit order who rules the NSA, in which is the Jew room. 04:46:41.920 --> 04:46:47.360 Dear listener, do you see how as we travel through the stream of history, 04:46:47.660 --> 04:46:51.180 that we can arrive at right conclusions in 2007? 04:46:52.120 --> 04:46:58.820 Do you see if you know the past of the Jesuit order, its doctrine, its creation, 04:47:00.200 --> 04:47:06.920 its losses and its gains, its whole existence to counter the reformation, 04:47:07.440 --> 04:47:11.880 and to destroy the reformed nations, in which the Jews were always welcome, 04:47:12.280 --> 04:47:13.920 and were given sanctuary? 04:47:15.280 --> 04:47:20.940 Can you see how the Jesuits are after the destruction of these nations, so that they 04:47:20.940 --> 04:47:25.360 can revert the world back to the primacy of the Pope, as it was in the dark ages? 04:47:25.360 --> 04:47:31.420 Are you beginning to see that the whole New World Order movement is nothing but a 04:47:31.420 --> 04:47:34.760 move by the Vatican to restore the old order? 04:47:35.980 --> 04:47:40.860 European feudalism, which is in fact today nothing more than corporate fascism, 04:47:41.000 --> 04:47:45.540 cartel corporate fascism, which financed both Hitlerism and Stalinism? 04:47:47.000 --> 04:47:53.600 Do you see how this New Age movement, led and fathered by the Jesuit Pierre 04:47:53.600 --> 04:47:59.440 Teilhard de Chardin, a French Jesuit, do you see how it is nothing more than an 04:47:59.440 --> 04:48:04.660 attempt to overthrow the Bible, which peoples read, and to get them on the 04:48:04.660 --> 04:48:09.860 shaky ground of subjective belief, so that they can be easily moved into 04:48:09.860 --> 04:48:11.360 serving the papacy? 04:48:12.160 --> 04:48:16.360 That's the purpose for the New World Order and the purpose for the New Age movement. 04:48:17.560 --> 04:48:20.340 The Jesuits are master sorcerers at the top. 04:48:21.300 --> 04:48:22.500 None are their equal. 04:48:23.200 --> 04:48:25.180 They are masters in the art of war. 04:48:25.660 --> 04:48:29.860 They are in fact the one who mastered the tenets of Sue Sing's The Art of War. 04:48:32.060 --> 04:48:36.200 The Jesuit order is most of all the enemy of God. 04:48:37.480 --> 04:48:39.780 God hates the Jesuit order. 04:48:40.360 --> 04:48:41.840 God hates its doctrines. 04:48:42.260 --> 04:48:43.420 God hates its deeds. 04:48:43.800 --> 04:48:49.300 The risen Son of God eagerly looks forward to breaking its power at its second 04:48:49.300 --> 04:48:49.840 coming. 04:48:50.320 --> 04:48:54.280 Because the Bible says that He shall laugh and have these nations in derision. 04:48:54.600 --> 04:48:56.960 Because they have all consolidated themselves together. 04:48:57.040 --> 04:49:01.240 They have all organized themselves and conspired together against the Lord and 04:49:01.240 --> 04:49:02.200 against His Christ. 04:49:02.200 --> 04:49:04.240 Saying, let us break His bands of sunder. 04:49:04.420 --> 04:49:06.340 Let us cast their cords from us. 04:49:06.520 --> 04:49:09.680 We are not going to be limited by God's word or His commandments. 04:49:10.060 --> 04:49:11.080 We hate His word. 04:49:11.500 --> 04:49:15.960 We want the glory that the Son of God rightfully deserves and has earned and has 04:49:15.960 --> 04:49:17.100 been given by His Father. 04:49:18.280 --> 04:49:21.160 And the Pope of our making, He is the Vicar of Christ. 04:49:21.660 --> 04:49:25.620 He is the one that the people shall worship, especially after His mortal wound 04:49:25.620 --> 04:49:27.140 and He is brought back to life. 04:49:27.760 --> 04:49:30.420 We the Jesuits will be His bodyguard. 04:49:30.720 --> 04:49:32.120 We are His obsidian order. 04:49:32.680 --> 04:49:34.980 We are His praetorian guard. 04:49:35.400 --> 04:49:38.280 We are the ones that will ensure His universal power. 04:49:39.620 --> 04:49:41.000 This is the mind of the Jesuit. 04:49:41.960 --> 04:49:47.000 And the Jesuit couldn't care less about you, children, helpless women, 04:49:47.540 --> 04:49:50.180 the sinking of the Titanic when they pulled that off. 04:49:50.180 --> 04:49:54.720 If you see the movie Titanic, you see this French woman saying to the captain, 04:49:55.280 --> 04:49:58.880 Monsieur, monsieur, and she's holding a little baby. 04:49:59.120 --> 04:50:03.780 Do you think Captain Smith, that Jesuit, had any feeling for these poor women and 04:50:03.780 --> 04:50:08.060 their children about to drown in freezing water in the North Atlantic? 04:50:08.320 --> 04:50:10.180 This is the mind of the Jesuit. 04:50:10.960 --> 04:50:14.820 And we have to begin to think like a Jesuit if we are to resist Him. 04:50:15.260 --> 04:50:17.120 We have to know His moves. 04:50:17.400 --> 04:50:19.220 We have to know what makes Him go. 04:50:19.220 --> 04:50:23.000 We have to understand His abject and complete and total obedience to His 04:50:23.000 --> 04:50:23.580 superiors. 04:50:24.080 --> 04:50:26.820 We have to understand He's a part of a military order. 04:50:26.940 --> 04:50:27.840 He's under orders. 04:50:28.140 --> 04:50:30.740 He has no option but to obey or die. 04:50:31.740 --> 04:50:33.520 All for the greater glory of God. 04:50:35.240 --> 04:50:36.980 So this is the Jesuit order. 04:50:37.660 --> 04:50:40.700 This is the Reformation versus the Counter-Reformation. 04:50:42.100 --> 04:50:44.380 This is the secret war against the Jews. 04:50:44.660 --> 04:50:47.460 This is the secret war against Bible-believing Protestants. 04:50:47.460 --> 04:50:51.080 This is the secret war against the Orthodox peoples of Russia. 04:50:51.400 --> 04:50:56.620 This is the secret war against the Muslims who would dare hold Jerusalem against the 04:50:56.620 --> 04:50:57.500 wishes of the Pope. 04:50:58.380 --> 04:51:03.260 This is the secret war against the Buddhists of the Far East who refused to 04:51:03.260 --> 04:51:06.980 bow to the Pope because, you see, their Dalai Lama was God to them. 04:51:07.300 --> 04:51:12.220 And therefore the Jesuits had to overthrow the Dalai Lama and make him subordinate to 04:51:12.220 --> 04:51:13.660 the black Pope. 04:51:14.800 --> 04:51:20.100 All of this are what the Jesuits have done and what they will continue to do. 04:51:20.160 --> 04:51:22.000 This is why the Jesuits overthrew Hirohito. 04:51:22.340 --> 04:51:24.120 They had to overthrow the God of Japan. 04:51:24.400 --> 04:51:27.660 There can only be one God that manifests in the flesh, and that is the Pope, 04:51:27.820 --> 04:51:32.120 whom the Jesuits bring to power, keep in power, and keep in line, 04:51:32.440 --> 04:51:34.860 lest they have to kill him like they killed Pope John Paul I. 04:51:37.060 --> 04:51:40.240 The Jesuits are the heartbeat of the papacy. 04:51:40.240 --> 04:51:45.680 Whatever the assistance of the General decides, that will be policy for Rome. 04:51:46.600 --> 04:51:51.560 Whatever the Jesuits decide economically, that will be the policy for the gold pool 04:51:51.560 --> 04:51:52.140 in London. 04:51:52.640 --> 04:51:56.860 Whatever the Jesuits in Rome decide, that will be the policy for the Archbishop 04:51:56.860 --> 04:51:59.180 of New York controlling the Council on Foreign Relations. 04:51:59.640 --> 04:52:03.580 Whatever the Jesuits decide in Rome, that will be the policy for the Archbishop 04:52:03.580 --> 04:52:05.960 of Westminster controlling London. 04:52:05.960 --> 04:52:09.760 And he is controlled by the Jesuit provincialists, Stoneyhurst. 04:52:11.480 --> 04:52:14.500 It is all the same, no matter what country you are in. 04:52:14.800 --> 04:52:20.120 It is the same Jesuit-Roman provincial government overseeing the Roman hierarchy, 04:52:20.260 --> 04:52:24.240 the Vatican Empire, which in turn oversees the government of that particular country. 04:52:24.860 --> 04:52:26.080 That is how it works. 04:52:26.540 --> 04:52:29.300 And this is why the Jesuits are traitors. 04:52:29.780 --> 04:52:34.660 This is why they need to be punished for their high crimes of treason, of high 04:52:34.660 --> 04:52:35.140 treason. 04:52:35.140 --> 04:52:40.180 And their assassinations, and their overthrow of legitimately created nations 04:52:40.180 --> 04:52:46.860 like America, like Russia, like Britain, like Ethiopia, like Brazil, like South 04:52:46.860 --> 04:52:52.500 Africa, and like the North America that they are plotting right now to overthrow. 04:52:53.540 --> 04:52:57.460 So, dear student, I trust that this is a bit of a taste for you. 04:52:57.920 --> 04:53:00.280 That you will begin to see the power of the Order. 04:53:00.440 --> 04:53:04.200 That you will begin to get a feel for what they do, how they move. 04:53:04.200 --> 04:53:08.580 So that you will be able to understand every facet that they control. 04:53:09.560 --> 04:53:13.320 From the black Muslims with Louis Farrakhan, to the Ku Klux Klan, 04:53:13.760 --> 04:53:18.600 from the Mormon Church to the Jehovah Witnesses, from the Southern Baptists to 04:53:18.600 --> 04:53:19.300 the Lutherans. 04:53:19.560 --> 04:53:23.220 The Jesuits control them all through high-level Freemasonry. 04:53:24.620 --> 04:53:33.300 As you see the Patriot Movement, that is a tremendous web that is weaved by 04:53:33.300 --> 04:53:33.840 the Jesuits. 04:53:33.840 --> 04:53:36.860 Oh, what a wondrous web we weave when we practice to deceive. 04:53:38.300 --> 04:53:42.200 This is my prayer tonight, as you begin to get a feel for this, dear student. 04:53:42.780 --> 04:53:46.780 That your eyes will be opened and you will see a thousand things more than what I 04:53:46.780 --> 04:53:47.480 ever dreamed of. 04:53:47.620 --> 04:53:52.600 To continue to understand who rules and when to rule. 04:53:53.100 --> 04:53:55.980 The Lord Jesus Christ, who returns in power and glory. 04:53:57.320 --> 04:53:58.200 May the Lord bless you. 04:54:33.020 --> 04:54:37.260 Through the years of providing water filters to America, you've come to us and 04:54:37.260 --> 04:54:37.880 we've listened. 04:54:38.260 --> 04:54:41.460 You asked us to make the water level visible to eliminate the guesswork when 04:54:41.460 --> 04:54:42.320 refilling the water. 04:54:42.640 --> 04:54:43.120 We listened. 04:54:43.480 --> 04:54:47.040 You asked for an elevated base so the system could be used in places...
