WEBVTT 00:12.550 --> 00:14.770 Here we are with Jesuit Agenda 3. 00:15.150 --> 00:18.490 You know, Bob, this is so much like my celebration videos. 00:18.670 --> 00:22.670 I made that first one, and I thought that that would take care of it. 00:23.090 --> 00:26.950 Never did I dream that there'd be a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. 00:27.070 --> 00:28.890 Here we are in Jesuit Agenda 3. 00:29.470 --> 00:32.250 Just thank you so much for the way that the Lord has... 00:32.250 --> 00:34.550 for permitting the Lord to use you the way that He has. 00:34.890 --> 00:38.770 And the amazing thing about this, Bob, is also just like my celebration 00:38.770 --> 00:44.030 videos, is that as we get farther and farther into this, we find more and more 00:44.030 --> 00:45.930 startling and astounding things. 00:46.150 --> 00:49.330 You have just touched on a few things that we're going to be covering with today. 00:49.790 --> 00:51.350 And I am in absolute disbelief. 00:51.910 --> 00:54.130 I can't believe this stuff that's happening. 00:54.230 --> 00:56.810 And I know that our people need to find out, too. 00:57.390 --> 01:00.050 We'll be back with Jesuit Agenda 3 in just a moment. 01:24.010 --> 01:25.410 ♪♪♪ 01:42.830 --> 01:46.230 Bob, before we begin, let's ask the Lord's Holy Spirit to be with us. 01:46.330 --> 01:52.090 People realize, those that have viewed these tapes, that we need the mercy of the 01:52.090 --> 01:55.390 Lord and angels that excel in strength and guarding us. 01:55.630 --> 01:58.570 We also need wisdom for the things we're going to be dealing with today. 01:58.710 --> 02:03.750 And that God will not only prepare our hearts for this message, but the hearts of 02:03.750 --> 02:04.170 the viewers. 02:04.650 --> 02:07.870 So will you kneel with me and offer a word of prayer that the Lord will do just that? 02:11.070 --> 02:17.330 Gracious Father in heaven, it's wonderful to live at the hour of earth's history 02:17.330 --> 02:18.390 that we are living in. 02:18.930 --> 02:22.870 To see the fulfillment of the prophecies taking place all about us. 02:23.430 --> 02:25.970 It's wonderful to work together in thy cause. 02:26.710 --> 02:32.730 And to remember that the one who died for us, who shed his blood on Calvary's cross, 02:32.870 --> 02:40.150 who paid the redemption price for us, is looking in infinite love upon us, 02:40.550 --> 02:45.570 wanting to guard us, wanting to shield us from the spiritualistic forces that are 02:45.570 --> 02:47.490 taking control of this world. 02:47.970 --> 02:54.810 And Lord, we look to you, we want to look to you as in a glass, clearly, 02:55.350 --> 02:57.470 without any veil between. 02:58.270 --> 03:03.390 We want to see your face and we want to see the course that you have marked out 03:03.390 --> 03:06.230 for us in these closing hours of earth's history. 03:06.830 --> 03:12.790 Help us to be faithful and true, to be fearless in your cause, and give us 03:12.790 --> 03:20.690 wisdom to understand the forces at work to unveil the inroads of spiritualism and the 03:20.690 --> 03:25.890 rapid and stealthy progress of the papal power and the marshalling of the nations 03:25.890 --> 03:29.690 for the closing events of this earth's history. 03:29.690 --> 03:34.530 Help us to ever be on your side of the question, to view things from your 03:34.530 --> 03:39.410 perspective, and to be in a state of absolute surrender to thee, in unbroken 03:39.410 --> 03:45.350 intimacy, unbroken communion, and total dependency upon thee and thy righteousness 03:45.350 --> 03:46.290 and thy power. 03:46.830 --> 03:52.350 Bless John and myself today and each one who views these videos, that the Spirit of 03:52.350 --> 03:54.870 God may take complete possession of our hearts. 03:55.050 --> 03:56.270 In Jesus' name we pray. 03:56.410 --> 03:56.670 Amen. 03:59.090 --> 04:00.110 Thank you, Bob. 04:00.270 --> 04:04.950 Well, have any startling things happened in your life since we made our first video 04:04.950 --> 04:05.830 together, Bob? 04:06.130 --> 04:09.850 Oh, the Lord has really been a blessing, and we've sure enjoyed working with you, 04:09.930 --> 04:10.270 John. 04:10.990 --> 04:15.110 Well, I know that there have been some things happening in your local church 04:15.110 --> 04:18.970 since we made our first video, and I think probably most of our viewers 04:18.970 --> 04:24.130 know that you've been brought under church discipline and given 90 days to recant, 04:24.190 --> 04:24.650 so to speak. 04:24.650 --> 04:28.130 Have you ever been notified officially of this, or have you heard about it through 04:28.130 --> 04:29.330 the Adventist Grapevine? 04:29.810 --> 04:30.070 No. 04:30.190 --> 04:38.110 In fact, while we were away on a seminar, a letter was delivered to our residence in 04:38.110 --> 04:43.450 our absence, not giving us the date when a meeting would be held, just notifying us 04:43.450 --> 04:47.530 that there would be a church business meeting and leveling of six charges 04:47.530 --> 04:48.410 against us. 04:49.190 --> 04:54.190 And after we got back from our trip, the next morning I was aware of that 04:54.190 --> 05:00.030 letter, and we found out that the meeting was held that evening, and they voted to 05:00.030 --> 05:02.990 put us under three months of censure. 05:03.490 --> 05:08.890 And we found out about it because one of the individuals that voted in our favor at 05:08.890 --> 05:11.410 the meeting told us about it. 05:12.030 --> 05:14.830 And they still haven't notified us. 05:14.830 --> 05:16.090 It's been a couple months now. 05:16.630 --> 05:19.690 And yet they have notified all the churches in the conference. 05:19.830 --> 05:22.230 They've sent letters out to all the conference presidents. 05:22.790 --> 05:24.750 It sounds so familiar to me. 05:24.870 --> 05:28.530 That's exactly how they handled the disfellowshipping of me and my family. 05:29.170 --> 05:31.790 Well, if God before us, who can be against us? 05:31.830 --> 05:33.230 We aren't going to let that slow us down. 05:33.310 --> 05:34.970 Bob, tell us what you have found. 05:35.290 --> 05:39.010 I don't know how you can start with the wealth of information you have to give us 05:39.010 --> 05:45.570 today, but start right in and let us know where we are on the Jesuit agenda going on 05:45.570 --> 05:47.690 in the Seventh-day Adventist denomination. 05:48.350 --> 05:52.890 John, I'd like to just start off with a few thoughts about the gospel. 05:53.810 --> 06:00.490 Looking at Hebrews chapter 2, verse 9, we read, But we see Jesus, who was made a 06:00.490 --> 06:05.250 little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and 06:05.250 --> 06:09.870 honor, that He, by the grace of God, should taste death for every man. 06:10.450 --> 06:15.690 And our Savior has paid the redemption price for us at infinite cost, 06:16.190 --> 06:18.050 the cost of His infinite blood. 06:18.250 --> 06:23.270 He has died the death that was ours, which was dying for eternity. 06:23.450 --> 06:25.650 He has tasted of that death. 06:25.770 --> 06:30.270 He has entered the portals of the tomb without the hope of coming back again, 06:30.270 --> 06:33.190 but with the faith that conquered on Calvary's cross. 06:33.970 --> 06:36.890 And so we owe everything to Him. 06:37.350 --> 06:39.650 And that is what spiritualism does not understand. 06:40.210 --> 06:44.570 Spiritualism does not teach the fall of man and therefore sees no need of a 06:44.570 --> 06:44.870 Savior. 06:45.450 --> 06:50.850 And the materials we're going to be looking at today have as their basis 06:50.850 --> 06:52.070 spiritualism. 06:52.730 --> 06:56.730 I'd like to read a passage here from Great Controversy. 06:56.730 --> 07:03.330 Spiritualism teaches many wonderful thoughts and wonderful concepts about love 07:03.330 --> 07:10.010 and unity and harmony and harmony with nature and all of this type of thing, 07:10.070 --> 07:16.290 but it doesn't have the power to produce righteousness and true love and true 07:16.290 --> 07:16.790 righteousness. 07:17.750 --> 07:23.510 And Ellen White told us that the Omega Apostasy would, among other things, 07:23.510 --> 07:28.570 involve the teaching that virtue is better than vice, but having separated itself 07:28.570 --> 07:33.350 from God, really, through failure to understand righteousness by faith, 07:33.650 --> 07:36.550 it would be powerless to accomplish that virtue. 07:36.750 --> 07:41.490 And we're going to be looking at movements that profess virtue, but that in reality 07:41.490 --> 07:47.790 have proven historically that they have been monsters of destruction. 07:48.630 --> 07:54.350 And we must remember that in the Hindu religion, they even had a god called 07:54.350 --> 07:54.730 Shiva. 07:55.510 --> 08:01.670 The destroyer and destruction in the Hindu religion is not looked upon as necessarily 08:01.670 --> 08:02.130 bad. 08:02.230 --> 08:04.950 It's looked upon as a purifying element. 08:05.690 --> 08:10.010 And that's, of course, what Heinrich Himmler was involved in with the Nazi SS. 08:10.010 --> 08:17.110 The destruction and annihilation of whole races was merely a purifying element for 08:17.110 --> 08:19.170 the good of humanity, you see. 08:19.710 --> 08:23.790 And we are going to see... we are seeing the same philosophies developing, 08:23.910 --> 08:29.110 because New Age is virtually identical to National Socialism, but there is... and 08:29.110 --> 08:33.170 National Socialism, of course, is Nazism, but undergirding it all are 08:33.170 --> 08:35.190 philosophies that we want to look at today. 08:35.530 --> 08:41.070 And we want to look at the all-pervasiveness of this thing and first 08:41.070 --> 08:44.390 of all, we want to look at some of the things that are hitting us right now, 08:44.470 --> 08:45.610 that are alerting us. 08:46.050 --> 08:51.550 Then we want to do a historical sweep and see historically what this philosophy is 08:51.550 --> 08:57.470 at its roots and how it has worked itself historically and how it is encompassing 08:57.470 --> 09:03.090 the world now and then how the faithful have combated this in the situation they 09:03.090 --> 09:04.010 found themselves in. 09:04.090 --> 09:05.690 You have our undivided attention. 09:05.850 --> 09:06.170 Proceed. 09:07.130 --> 09:14.110 Here in Great Controversy 588-589, the Protestants of the United States will 09:14.110 --> 09:18.750 be foremost in stretching their hands across the Gulf to grasp the hand of 09:18.750 --> 09:19.390 Spiritualism. 09:19.450 --> 09:20.350 Has that happened, John? 09:20.810 --> 09:21.330 Absolutely. 09:21.650 --> 09:24.370 Why, it is all through the Protestant churches, isn't it? 09:24.530 --> 09:28.690 And I can't help but think of this Spiritualism that you are referring to. 09:28.870 --> 09:33.830 Immediately what came to my mind was the situation, I believe it's in early 09:33.830 --> 09:37.410 writings, where she talks about Jesus going into the Most Holy Place and the 09:37.410 --> 09:40.410 true and faithful following Him into the Most Holy Place. 09:40.530 --> 09:44.210 But there was another group that did not follow Jesus, remained in the Holy Place, 09:44.270 --> 09:51.510 and Satan came in to take the Savior's place and gave them great power and light. 09:51.710 --> 09:55.230 And that's exactly what these people that are involved in Spiritualism, not only in 09:55.230 --> 09:58.150 Protestantism, but now we find it in the Seventh-day Adventist Church, they are 09:58.150 --> 10:00.910 claiming that they have great power, great light, and look at all the wonderful 10:00.910 --> 10:03.870 things that are taking place in their encampment. 10:03.870 --> 10:07.450 But we see that it's just this group that are receiving their power and light from 10:07.450 --> 10:07.750 Satan. 10:08.010 --> 10:10.670 The true and faithful have gone to the Most Holy Place with Christ. 10:10.810 --> 10:11.170 That's right. 10:11.930 --> 10:15.850 So they will be foremost, the Protestants of the United States will be foremost in 10:15.850 --> 10:18.810 stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of Spiritualism. 10:18.850 --> 10:24.750 The visualization, the New Age teachings, the New Age concepts of love and unity 10:24.750 --> 10:30.610 that have come in, the New Age agenda called for working through the churches, 10:30.610 --> 10:34.810 working through the Masonic lodges and working through education to draw the 10:34.810 --> 10:38.870 whole world together in the occult to prepare it for the coming of the Omega 10:38.870 --> 10:39.370 Christ. 10:39.690 --> 10:41.650 This is the power and light that comes from Satan. 10:41.730 --> 10:42.110 That's right. 10:42.650 --> 10:48.050 They will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power and under the 10:48.050 --> 10:52.210 influence of this three-fold union, this country will follow in the steps of 10:52.210 --> 10:54.910 Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience. 10:55.710 --> 10:59.530 Now I'd like to look at some of the developments that are taking place right 10:59.530 --> 11:05.830 now John, and perhaps before we do that, a couple more statements here. 11:05.910 --> 11:11.770 In Ellen White's day when she was writing this, the Temperance Movement was using a 11:11.770 --> 11:18.590 good cause and moral reform and combining it with the Sunday Law Movement. 11:19.230 --> 11:20.790 And Ellen White had some counsel. 11:20.950 --> 11:25.810 She said, The fact that a movement to establish error is connected with a work 11:25.810 --> 11:29.970 which is in itself good is not an argument in favor of the error. 11:30.750 --> 11:35.930 We may disguise poison by mingling it with wholesome food, but we do not change its 11:35.930 --> 11:36.310 nature. 11:36.790 --> 11:41.910 On the contrary, it is rendered more dangerous as it is more likely to be taken 11:41.910 --> 11:42.550 unawares. 11:42.950 --> 11:47.490 It is one of Satan's devices to combine with falsehood just enough truth to give 11:47.490 --> 11:48.550 it plausibility. 11:48.550 --> 11:51.410 And we're seeing that with the things that are coming in. 11:51.990 --> 11:55.690 Ellen White is used to introduce things, you see. 11:55.970 --> 12:03.830 To use Adventist jargon and to catch Adventist unawares, and they mix in some 12:03.830 --> 12:08.130 spirit of prophecy quotes to bring the guard down. 12:08.970 --> 12:11.570 And what is the nature of this spiritualism? 12:11.970 --> 12:16.630 As spiritualism more closely imitates the nominal Christianity of the day, 12:16.630 --> 12:19.770 it has greater power to deceive and ensnare. 12:20.390 --> 12:23.830 Satan himself is converted after the modern order of things. 12:24.070 --> 12:27.590 He will appear in the character of an angel of light. 12:28.070 --> 12:32.710 And Alice Bailey, who had the intermediate phase of teaching, she's a high priestess 12:32.710 --> 12:37.510 of the New Age movement, tells us in her book, The Externalization of the 12:37.510 --> 12:42.850 Hierarchy, that when the conditioning process of New Age reaches the point where 12:42.850 --> 12:47.510 sufficient unity and love has been achieved, through the churches, 12:47.650 --> 12:52.530 through the Masonic lodges, and through education, then the externalization of the 12:52.530 --> 12:56.110 hierarchy will take place, and the occult leaders will reveal themselves, 12:56.430 --> 13:00.430 and the Christ himself will appear surrounded by angels. 13:01.230 --> 13:08.550 Has Christ, the Christian church, ever had anything to do with a hierarchy? 13:08.770 --> 13:14.290 Is a hierarchical system ever congruent with true Christianity? 13:14.290 --> 13:19.750 Well, John, I have just gone through a couple of times my CD-ROM, and looked up 13:19.750 --> 13:25.130 every time where Ellen White uses the word hierarchy, and every time it's used in a 13:25.130 --> 13:31.190 pejorative sense as the epitome of evil, which is always opposed to the gospel. 13:31.570 --> 13:34.770 And I have a book here, John, that sheds light on this. 13:34.770 --> 13:41.870 So you're saying that a hierarchy has never, ever been used of God, and that any 13:41.870 --> 13:47.870 time we have a hierarchical system that is always referred to by God's prophet, 13:48.010 --> 13:50.870 God's messenger, as being evil and satanic? 13:50.970 --> 13:57.050 Every time she refers to it in her writings, it is the epitome of evil that 13:57.050 --> 13:58.310 opposes the gospel. 13:58.430 --> 14:00.850 Now, what is the order in the gospel? 14:01.250 --> 14:05.710 All ye are brethren, and one is your master, even Christ. 14:05.710 --> 14:08.710 Well, that's so startling, because anybody that knows anything about church 14:08.710 --> 14:13.970 organization within Seventh-day Adventist church knows that it is very obvious, 14:14.270 --> 14:19.650 and even touted by the general conference presidents, that we have a hierarchical 14:19.650 --> 14:24.450 system of government in the Seventh-day Adventist denominational structure. 14:24.650 --> 14:26.950 It's even been sworn to in courts of law. 14:27.410 --> 14:31.450 But our organization, when it was first established, was to be representative. 14:31.630 --> 14:34.450 In other words, the power flows from the bottom up. 14:34.450 --> 14:37.890 But a hierarchy flows from the top down. 14:37.890 --> 14:39.050 The pyramid, that's right. 14:39.110 --> 14:42.430 Here is what Daubenier wrote in his history of the Reformation. 14:42.650 --> 14:47.970 Christianity has two great adversaries, hierarchism and rationalism. 14:50.070 --> 14:53.450 And another place here, in 521... 14:54.070 --> 14:59.430 In fact, there is only another religious organization that has the hierarchical 14:59.430 --> 15:02.870 system that the Seventh-day Adventist church has, and that's the Roman Catholic 15:02.870 --> 15:03.110 Church. 15:03.110 --> 15:09.210 It was argued in the Proctor case, as I recall, that we, next to the Roman 15:09.210 --> 15:11.770 Catholic Church, have the most centralized system. 15:13.050 --> 15:18.590 Protestantism threw off man's authority solely to place Jesus Christ on the throne 15:18.590 --> 15:21.790 of the Church and his word in the pulpit. 15:22.530 --> 15:25.290 John, reading on here in Great Controversy... 15:26.390 --> 15:30.230 He, that is, Satan, will appear in the character of an angel of light. 15:30.490 --> 15:34.750 Through the agency of spiritualism, miracles will be wrought, the sick will be 15:34.750 --> 15:38.810 healed, and many undeniable wonders will be performed. 15:39.310 --> 15:44.010 And as the spirits will profess faith in the Bible and manifest respect for the 15:44.010 --> 15:48.930 institutions of the Church, their work will be accepted as a manifestation of 15:48.930 --> 15:49.890 divine power. 15:51.350 --> 15:55.250 Bob, pardon me, don't forget that with the people listening by audio tape, 15:55.610 --> 15:59.790 we can put the reference up on the video, but the people listening by audio tape, 15:59.850 --> 16:02.150 if you can give the reference of every book that you read... 16:02.150 --> 16:07.230 588, 589, in Great Controversy. 16:07.250 --> 16:09.150 Did you give the reference from the book on D. 16:09.230 --> 16:09.370 R. 16:09.370 --> 16:09.410 B. 16:09.450 --> 16:10.370 E.'s History of the Reformation? 16:10.590 --> 16:14.210 First quote was 171, and the second was 521. 16:14.390 --> 16:14.750 All right. 16:14.750 --> 16:20.150 Now, what is going to happen as spiritualism pulls the strings of this 16:20.150 --> 16:22.650 whole thing together at the end of time? 16:23.350 --> 16:28.070 Those who honor the Bible Sabbath will be denounced as enemies of law and order, 16:28.590 --> 16:33.490 as breaking down the moral restraints of society, causing anarchy and corruption, 16:33.710 --> 16:36.170 and calling down the judgments of God upon the earth. 16:36.730 --> 16:40.650 Their conscientious scruples will be pronounced obstinacy. 16:40.650 --> 16:45.110 Now, in the New Age teaching, as enunciated by Alice Bailey, the high 16:45.110 --> 16:54.530 priestess, she discusses the issue of the power of death being used to hasten the 16:54.530 --> 16:55.230 coming one. 16:56.350 --> 16:57.630 The power of death? 16:57.630 --> 16:57.990 Yes. 16:58.450 --> 17:04.750 By that she means that all ideas that don't fit into the community, that are 17:04.750 --> 17:10.010 individual interpretations or worldviews that don't submit to the community at 17:10.010 --> 17:14.910 large, must be put under the power of death to hasten the coming one. 17:14.970 --> 17:17.090 Revelation 13, 15, 17. 17:17.250 --> 17:17.690 Exactly. 17:19.090 --> 17:22.750 Their conscientious scruples will be pronounced obstinacy, stubbornness, 17:22.810 --> 17:24.070 and contempt of authority. 17:24.490 --> 17:27.350 They will be accused of disaffection toward the government. 17:27.530 --> 17:31.770 Now, this has happened in the Soviet Union for decades against the faithful 17:31.770 --> 17:33.130 Adventists who were standing up. 17:33.210 --> 17:34.310 We want to look at that later. 17:35.250 --> 17:39.430 Ministers who deny the obligation of the divine law will present from the pulpit 17:39.430 --> 17:44.390 the duty of yielding obedience to the civil authorities as ordained of God. 17:44.750 --> 17:48.950 In legislative halls and courts of justice, commandment keepers will be 17:48.950 --> 17:50.750 misrepresented and condemned. 17:51.330 --> 17:53.750 A false coloring will be given to their words. 17:53.850 --> 17:57.190 The worst construction will be put upon their motives. 17:58.370 --> 18:00.370 Now, having read that, John... 18:00.370 --> 18:02.670 Don't you love the spirit of apostasy? 18:02.730 --> 18:04.210 Don't you love the great controversy? 18:04.630 --> 18:08.230 Yes, it really tells us what is coming. 18:08.470 --> 18:09.570 Such a source of strength. 18:09.690 --> 18:11.210 What would we do without it? 18:12.330 --> 18:15.170 Here is a quote from the Adventist Apocalypse. 18:15.770 --> 18:16.690 Now, what's that? 18:17.070 --> 18:25.670 Now, that's a compilation of 719 pages of material from Ellen White's letters 18:26.870 --> 18:28.370 regarding end-time events. 18:28.570 --> 18:29.570 It's never been published. 18:29.930 --> 18:30.570 Where did you get it? 18:31.210 --> 18:34.490 Well, sometimes you have friends that pass things along to you. 18:34.570 --> 18:35.770 Is this confidential? 18:35.870 --> 18:37.350 You got your hands on this? 18:37.490 --> 18:41.910 No, it is available, actually, from the Rosenvolts. 18:42.030 --> 18:42.550 I see. 18:42.670 --> 18:45.230 And they have been copying this off. 18:45.350 --> 18:46.510 They had access to it. 18:46.590 --> 18:50.470 And when they gave me my copy, they said there's only five or six copies 18:50.470 --> 18:51.390 of this in existence. 18:51.390 --> 18:55.130 So I read through the whole 719 pages. 18:55.270 --> 18:56.170 It was absolutely... 18:56.170 --> 18:56.690 What did you find? 18:57.350 --> 19:04.630 Well, here is just a quote regarding the experimentation of Satan on the properties 19:04.630 --> 19:05.670 of the human mind. 19:05.770 --> 19:08.590 And we're going to be looking at this, John, a lot today. 19:10.750 --> 19:15.850 Satan often finds a powerful agency for evil in the power which one mind is 19:15.850 --> 19:18.630 capable of exerting on another human mind. 19:18.630 --> 19:24.310 This influence is so seductive that the person who is being molded by it is often 19:24.310 --> 19:25.850 unconscious of its power. 19:26.430 --> 19:31.430 God has bidden me speak warning against this evil, that his servants may not come 19:31.430 --> 19:33.090 under the deceptive power of Satan. 19:33.450 --> 19:38.310 The enemy is a master worker, and if God's people are not constantly led by the 19:38.310 --> 19:41.250 Spirit of God, they will be ensnared and taken. 19:41.650 --> 19:46.730 For thousands of years, Satan has been experimenting upon the properties of the 19:46.730 --> 19:47.330 human mind. 19:47.330 --> 19:51.910 Now, that's a very interesting phrase, because we're going to later be looking at 19:51.910 --> 19:57.870 Roman Catholic natural law, which forms a common denominator among many, 19:58.130 --> 19:59.770 many movements that are pulling things together. 19:59.790 --> 20:02.290 Experimenting with the human mind, NLP. 20:02.670 --> 20:04.210 I mean, it is so obvious. 20:04.910 --> 20:09.310 And he has learned to know it well by his subtle workings in the last days. 20:09.390 --> 20:15.470 He is linking the human mind with his own, imbuing it with his thoughts, and he is 20:15.470 --> 20:20.430 doing this work in so deceptive a manner, that those who accept his guidance, 20:20.830 --> 20:24.010 know not that they are being led by him at his will. 20:25.210 --> 20:31.070 The great deceiver hopes to confuse minds of men and women, that none but his voice 20:31.070 --> 20:32.130 will be heard. 20:32.550 --> 20:35.490 Yes, that's exactly what's happening, Bob. 20:35.550 --> 20:36.330 It's so obvious. 20:36.730 --> 20:40.870 Anybody with spiritual discernment, and what did Christ pray for the church in 20:40.870 --> 20:44.930 Laodicea, that they would have spiritual eyesalves, and I am praying for you, 20:45.010 --> 20:48.830 as you are for our people, that they will have spiritual eyesalves, and see the 20:48.830 --> 20:52.770 things that are taking place, because our Adventist people are being duped by the 20:52.770 --> 20:53.250 millions. 20:53.350 --> 20:55.050 They don't realize what's taking place. 20:55.290 --> 21:00.050 And if we can get them to see any of these videos, they are in absolute shock. 21:00.430 --> 21:02.450 They can't believe the stuff that's happening. 21:02.770 --> 21:06.250 But the problem is that many of them will not even watch these videos. 21:07.170 --> 21:15.470 John, in John chapter 10, the words of Jesus address this very clearly. 21:15.930 --> 21:18.810 He said, my sheep hear my voice. 21:19.250 --> 21:22.710 And we have to hear that voice first. 21:24.110 --> 21:30.110 And later on, Jesus said to some of the people around him, ye believe not, 21:30.190 --> 21:31.850 because ye are not of my sheep. 21:32.210 --> 21:36.590 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, and I give unto them 21:36.590 --> 21:41.330 eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my 21:41.330 --> 21:41.710 hand. 21:43.350 --> 21:47.590 Now, let's look, John, at some of the developments that have been happening that 21:47.590 --> 21:52.610 are just like bits of information that come across our consciousness, 21:53.530 --> 22:01.470 but in reality are part of a much larger strategic battle plan of the devil to pull 22:01.470 --> 22:04.310 things together for these final events. 22:04.310 --> 22:05.390 So many people have told us that. 22:05.490 --> 22:08.150 They said, you know, we saw all these little things happening hither and yon, 22:08.330 --> 22:09.550 but we couldn't put it all together. 22:09.630 --> 22:12.930 And suddenly we saw these videos, and we said, yes, it all fits together. 22:13.050 --> 22:15.010 Now we see why all this stuff is happening. 22:15.310 --> 22:19.670 That's why Alvin Toffler said in his book Power Shift, we see these bits and pieces 22:19.670 --> 22:24.510 of things coming by, but until we look at it strategically, we don't understand the 22:24.510 --> 22:25.310 significance of it. 22:25.550 --> 22:28.490 Here I have an analysis. 22:29.030 --> 22:33.510 You know, it is amazing to me, John, the number of men who are 22:33.510 --> 22:37.850 non-Adventists, who are putting themselves on the line, even putting their personal 22:37.850 --> 22:43.330 life at risk to expose the papacy, to expose spiritualism. 22:43.850 --> 22:52.450 Recently, the Argentine government released a large sheaf of top-secret 22:52.450 --> 22:59.470 documents to the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles regarding the connection 22:59.470 --> 23:02.390 between the Vatican and Nazism. 23:03.390 --> 23:07.310 And I'm going to be very interested to get any kind of synopsis. 23:07.450 --> 23:13.090 They are not making available the full release, but they may produce a synopsis. 23:13.650 --> 23:15.950 But that is just one incident. 23:16.170 --> 23:20.470 There are others that are busy researching the inroads of spiritualism, and these 23:20.470 --> 23:23.010 things are becoming more and more available to us. 23:23.010 --> 23:28.510 And I want to just look at this phenomenon of visualization that is coming into our 23:28.510 --> 23:28.750 church. 23:28.830 --> 23:30.910 It is spreading, spreading rapidly. 23:31.490 --> 23:35.550 Our ministers are being exposed to it in their training, and we are getting one 23:35.550 --> 23:37.150 report after another. 23:37.270 --> 23:40.190 Bob, people say, oh, this is one little isolated incident. 23:40.310 --> 23:45.290 That thing that you showed in your video of Bill Loveless, you know, that was just 23:45.290 --> 23:46.670 one isolated incident. 23:46.930 --> 23:52.030 That is about as much as one isolated incident, as celebration was one isolated 23:52.030 --> 23:52.310 incident. 23:52.310 --> 23:56.410 This is what they always say at the beginning when we expose it. 23:56.450 --> 23:57.770 Oh, it's just one isolated incident. 23:58.010 --> 24:02.130 And then our people see that it's not, that it's going like wildfire through our 24:02.130 --> 24:02.790 denomination. 24:03.130 --> 24:06.230 See, even the word celebration, John, this is so interesting. 24:06.590 --> 24:11.190 Because we just read this quotation about the linkage between Protestantism, 24:11.390 --> 24:13.250 spiritualism, and Roman Catholicism. 24:13.770 --> 24:15.750 Celebration is in all three. 24:16.210 --> 24:18.490 It is a code term for bringing all three. 24:18.570 --> 24:23.370 Have you seen, John, driving into Orlando here, the big billboard that says the 24:23.370 --> 24:24.870 celebration and you? 24:25.430 --> 24:27.010 These billboards are all over Orlando. 24:27.190 --> 24:30.110 This is a big advertising campaign that they have. 24:30.510 --> 24:34.250 And it's involving, it's even in the newspaper, in the Orlando Sentinel, 24:34.370 --> 24:38.850 it's talking about being the first one of these thousand points of light of George 24:38.850 --> 24:39.270 Bush's. 24:39.330 --> 24:42.430 Oh, yes, and Bush belongs to the Skull and Bones Society. 24:43.270 --> 24:48.750 Do you know that the Nazis had a skull and bones, the SS had skull and bones as their 24:48.750 --> 24:52.550 insignia, that they belong to the Nazi SS? 24:52.950 --> 24:55.590 Well, since you've been in Orlando here and seen these billboards, what does this 24:55.590 --> 24:57.430 have to do with what we're talking about today, Bob? 24:57.430 --> 24:58.630 Well, this is all New Age. 24:58.750 --> 25:05.570 See, they want to make Orlando the pilot city to pave the way as a city of light to 25:05.570 --> 25:10.790 demonstrate to the nation the type of agenda that they want to accomplish 25:10.790 --> 25:11.710 through New Age. 25:11.770 --> 25:14.750 Now, they don't always use the word New Age. 25:15.170 --> 25:15.730 For instance... 25:15.730 --> 25:17.390 Why did it have to be Orlando? 25:17.390 --> 25:19.230 Why do they have to start here? 25:19.530 --> 25:27.610 Well, you already have, with Disney World, you already have a heavy infusion here of 25:27.610 --> 25:28.690 New Age concepts. 25:28.890 --> 25:31.430 For instance, you have the EPCOT Center. 25:32.590 --> 25:36.310 What does the acronym EPCOT stand for? 25:36.570 --> 25:42.350 E-P-C-O-T... Environmental Prototype Community of Tomorrow. 25:42.550 --> 25:44.670 Okay, there you have it. 25:44.670 --> 25:51.650 And here I have a brochure for the Natural Law Party in England. 25:52.570 --> 25:54.670 One of the goals... 25:55.650 --> 26:00.290 and let me just show you a familiar face in this. 26:02.150 --> 26:05.410 See if you recognize the face of your friend here, John. 26:06.990 --> 26:09.350 Oh, that's Maharishi Mahayoga. 26:10.070 --> 26:11.290 There he is. 26:11.310 --> 26:11.670 Yeah. 26:11.870 --> 26:15.690 And he's got the Constitution of the Universe all worked out here with all 26:15.690 --> 26:16.530 kinds of numbers. 26:16.970 --> 26:19.310 What does he have to do with Catholic natural law? 26:19.550 --> 26:21.770 Well, we want to be exploring that. 26:21.830 --> 26:23.310 It's going to take us some time, John. 26:23.570 --> 26:28.850 But just as an introduction here, we're looking at things that are impacting 26:28.850 --> 26:32.430 us on these bits and pieces, and then we want to look at the whole strategic view. 26:32.450 --> 26:33.590 You just started on EPCOT. 26:33.690 --> 26:34.790 Now, I've been to EPCOT. 26:34.830 --> 26:36.570 Now, was that New Age? 26:36.650 --> 26:38.970 Remember what the acronym stands for. 26:39.230 --> 26:40.710 Okay, environmentally... 26:44.310 --> 26:45.110 Environmental prototype... 26:45.110 --> 26:45.550 Now, wait a second. 26:45.910 --> 26:46.750 Now, let's get it straight. 26:46.890 --> 26:50.370 What does EPCOT stand for? 26:52.030 --> 26:52.430 Environmentally... 26:53.050 --> 26:53.450 Experimental... 26:54.670 --> 26:55.070 Experimental... 26:55.070 --> 26:55.750 Prototype... 26:55.750 --> 26:58.330 Prototype Community of Tomorrow. 26:58.430 --> 26:58.690 Okay. 26:58.830 --> 26:59.070 Okay. 26:59.290 --> 27:00.070 Now, what does that... 27:00.070 --> 27:02.050 We already know about Disney World. 27:02.150 --> 27:05.310 I mean, you know, Mickey Mouse has been a wizard from the very beginning. 27:05.510 --> 27:06.150 Magic and all that. 27:06.210 --> 27:06.470 Sure. 27:06.470 --> 27:11.910 The Natural Law Party will establish a new department to beautify the United Kingdom. 27:12.490 --> 27:18.170 It will promote large development projects to construct ideal homes, villages, 27:18.610 --> 27:23.210 and towns in the vicinity of cities in order to provide a natural, healthy, 27:23.410 --> 27:27.490 uncongested, and pollution-free living environment for everyone. 27:28.090 --> 27:33.790 Now, this issue of natural law is so big, we have to look at it systematically, 27:33.790 --> 27:41.030 historically, how it has developed, how Roman Catholicism has used it, 27:41.090 --> 27:43.430 and all the movements that it has engendered. 27:43.470 --> 27:48.790 But we are just looking now at bits and pieces of what is floating past us, 27:48.830 --> 27:56.190 that we see, the billboard, Celebration NU, EPCOT, Natural Law Party in England, 27:56.350 --> 28:03.830 Maharishi Yogi, and the plan to have these type of prototype communities all over 28:03.830 --> 28:07.530 England, established by the Natural Law Party. 28:09.150 --> 28:15.830 Here I have John Paul II's encyclical letter, December 30, 1987, on social 28:15.830 --> 28:16.390 concern. 28:16.570 --> 28:20.490 I want to just look at a few quotes out of here, and then let's look at what the 28:20.490 --> 28:21.410 Earth Summit is saying. 28:23.510 --> 28:28.130 The obligation to commit oneself to the development of peoples is not just an 28:28.130 --> 28:33.050 individual duty, and still less an individualistic one, as if it were 28:33.050 --> 28:37.250 possible to achieve this development through the isolated efforts of each 28:37.250 --> 28:38.090 individual. 28:39.470 --> 28:44.350 It is an imperative which obliges each and every man and woman, as well as societies 28:44.350 --> 28:45.110 and nations. 28:46.490 --> 28:50.030 In particular, it obliges the Catholic Church and the other churches and 28:50.030 --> 28:53.710 ecclesial communities with which we are completely willing to collaborate in this 28:53.710 --> 28:54.070 field. 28:54.650 --> 28:58.490 In this sense, just as we Catholics invite our Christian brethren to share in our 28:58.490 --> 29:02.510 initiatives, so, too, we declare that we are ready to collaborate in theirs, 29:02.970 --> 29:05.370 and we welcome the invitations presented to us. 29:05.450 --> 29:09.890 In this pursuit of integral human development, we can also do much with the 29:09.890 --> 29:13.930 members of other religions, as, in fact, is being done in various places. 29:14.710 --> 29:19.050 Collaboration in the development of the whole person and of every human being is, 29:19.230 --> 29:23.530 in fact, a duty towards all, and must be shared by the four parts of the world, 29:23.950 --> 29:27.470 East and West, North and South, or, as we say today, by the different 29:27.470 --> 29:28.290 worlds. 29:28.290 --> 29:30.490 Now, that's 59 and 60. 29:30.710 --> 29:34.730 Peoples or nations, too, have a right to their own full development. 29:35.590 --> 29:37.810 Now, I'm going to read a few more here, John. 29:38.790 --> 29:43.130 And we have to remember what we're looking at here because it all has enormous 29:43.130 --> 29:47.390 significance when we understand what Roman Catholic natural law is. 29:48.190 --> 29:52.710 Nor can the moral character of development exclude respect for the beings which 29:52.710 --> 29:54.490 constitute the natural world. 29:54.830 --> 29:58.990 Notice the emphasis on the environment, which the ancient Greeks, alluding 29:58.990 --> 30:02.670 precisely to the order which distinguishes it, called the cosmos. 30:03.310 --> 30:09.530 See, the ancient Greeks had the concept that the highest goal of man was to fit 30:09.530 --> 30:12.930 into the order of the environment, the order of nature. 30:13.330 --> 30:16.850 And this is foundational to Roman Catholic natural law. 30:17.010 --> 30:21.570 You're telling me that all of this environmental thing, like Greenpeace and 30:21.570 --> 30:26.930 all of these things going on in the world about the environment, that this is just 30:26.930 --> 30:28.790 part of the Jesuit agenda, Bob? 30:28.910 --> 30:33.990 Well, I'm saying, John, that fundamental to Roman Catholic natural law, 30:34.030 --> 30:37.430 and we'll be looking at it shortly when we do a systematic analysis of it, 30:37.730 --> 30:42.010 fundamental to it is the concept of the order of nature which came from the 30:42.010 --> 30:48.210 Stoics, the ancient Greeks, who believed that the high duty of man was to conform 30:48.210 --> 30:52.410 to nature as it is, to fit into the environment. 30:52.410 --> 30:58.090 And so all of a sudden now we have children writing to President Bush all 30:58.090 --> 31:02.190 kinds of environmental things, people wearing environmental T-shirts, 31:02.490 --> 31:04.850 Greenpeace, the Green Party in Germany. 31:04.950 --> 31:10.050 And remember that John Paul II sees Germany as his springboard for the New 31:10.050 --> 31:10.730 World Order. 31:11.130 --> 31:16.390 A united Germany controlling Europe is the first circle of power. 31:16.650 --> 31:19.290 That's the lever of power for the New World Order. 31:19.290 --> 31:23.710 And then the second orbit is North America. 31:24.230 --> 31:27.650 And then the third orbit is the Asian region. 31:28.270 --> 31:32.790 But notice what is happening in Germany so carefully. 31:34.250 --> 31:37.870 There's a danger we're going to be straying here, and we'll want to come back 31:37.870 --> 31:38.610 to that a little later. 31:39.210 --> 31:42.730 But enormous developments are happening in Germany. 31:43.230 --> 31:48.730 There is great concern in the world community that Germany is putting the Nazi 31:48.730 --> 31:49.670 past behind them. 31:49.730 --> 31:50.890 They're not even thinking about it. 31:51.150 --> 31:54.730 And Germany feels so strong now that they don't even have to listen to the world 31:54.730 --> 31:55.970 community about these things. 31:57.170 --> 32:01.530 Such realities also demand respect by virtue of a threefold consideration, 32:01.970 --> 32:04.630 which it is useful to reflect upon carefully. 32:05.150 --> 32:09.190 The first consideration is the appropriateness of acquiring a growing 32:09.190 --> 32:14.630 awareness of the fact that one cannot use with impunity the different categories of 32:14.630 --> 32:19.370 beings, whether living or inanimate, animals, plants, the natural elements, 32:19.650 --> 32:22.890 simply as one wishes according to one's own economic needs. 32:22.950 --> 32:23.590 Now, what is that? 32:23.830 --> 32:26.290 That's this whole environmental concern, John. 32:26.810 --> 32:29.210 Isn't that what we hear from the environmentalists all the time? 32:29.890 --> 32:33.850 On the contrary, one must take into account the nature of each being and of 32:33.850 --> 32:38.490 its mutual connection in an ordered system, that's the order of nature concept 32:38.490 --> 32:42.370 of Roman Catholic natural law, which is precisely the cosmos. 32:43.330 --> 32:47.770 The second consideration is based on the realization, which is perhaps more urgent, 32:48.270 --> 32:50.390 that natural resources are limited. 32:51.310 --> 32:53.270 Some are not, as it is said, renewable. 32:53.810 --> 32:58.570 Using them as if they were inexhaustible with absolute dominion seriously endangers 32:58.570 --> 33:02.170 their availability, not only for the present generation, but above all for 33:02.170 --> 33:03.070 generations to come. 33:03.670 --> 33:08.150 All this environmental movement is exactly in harmony with this encyclical. 33:08.250 --> 33:10.730 This is page 64 and 65. 33:10.730 --> 33:18.170 Bob, I just want to say that these dear people, you folks are going to have to get 33:18.170 --> 33:22.670 a copy, your own copy of one of these videos and watch it four and five times, 33:22.690 --> 33:23.150 even more. 33:23.410 --> 33:27.370 People say that they get the... you know, Bob, the Lord has given you such an 33:27.370 --> 33:31.970 intellect and you have absorbed so much of this stuff and you are spewing out so much 33:31.970 --> 33:38.570 of this data that there is no... my problem I have is in absorbing this 33:38.570 --> 33:41.230 material at the speed in which you give it. 33:41.570 --> 33:44.370 And these dear folks, I know, must suffer the same problem. 33:44.770 --> 33:48.930 And I have had so many people say, you know, the second, third, fourth... 33:48.930 --> 33:53.430 every time I watch that video, I hear stuff I never heard before and it 33:53.430 --> 33:54.250 all comes together. 33:54.570 --> 33:57.890 So, you know, I realize that you have such a wealth of material to give us, 33:57.930 --> 33:59.030 but I am talking to our viewers. 33:59.350 --> 34:01.870 You are going to have to get one of these videos and watch it over and over again. 34:01.910 --> 34:05.550 And I promise you, every time you watch it, you will see more and more things that 34:05.550 --> 34:07.070 Bob is relating to us. 34:07.070 --> 34:11.050 But just try to absorb what you can the first time through, as I am trying to do 34:11.050 --> 34:11.390 here. 34:12.030 --> 34:17.370 In fact, they are planning on having an environmental Sabbath, which is a very 34:17.370 --> 34:18.330 interesting thing. 34:18.470 --> 34:19.030 Who is they? 34:19.350 --> 34:23.090 The environmentalists and the Earth Summit, as I understand. 34:23.110 --> 34:23.670 Which you say... 34:23.670 --> 34:24.830 The international community. 34:25.070 --> 34:28.490 Which you say has a foundation structure in the Catholic Church? 34:28.550 --> 34:32.390 Well, in Roman Catholic natural law, the order of nature strains. 34:32.510 --> 34:35.610 See, there are two strains, and we will get into that shortly in Roman Catholic 34:35.610 --> 34:41.050 natural law, but the order of nature strain calls for conformity to nature. 34:41.450 --> 34:44.430 The thing I am finding out is that the Roman Catholic Church has such influence 34:44.430 --> 34:48.870 around the world, and has their finger in most every organization that rules the 34:48.870 --> 34:54.010 world, that they can make things happen without anybody knowing the source of it. 34:54.330 --> 35:00.070 That they have such an unbelievable satellite network of pulling the strings 35:00.070 --> 35:01.070 of everything that happens in the world. 35:01.070 --> 35:04.490 And they use the principle of dissociation, so people don't see the 35:04.490 --> 35:08.330 connections, and then suddenly all of these agencies pull together at the same 35:08.330 --> 35:08.750 time. 35:09.270 --> 35:14.670 And here, the third consideration, page 65 in the encyclical, refers directly 35:14.670 --> 35:19.110 to the consequences of a certain type of development on the quality of life in the 35:19.110 --> 35:20.310 industrialized zones. 35:20.770 --> 35:24.790 We all know that the direct or indirect result of industrialization is, 35:24.850 --> 35:29.850 ever more frequently, the pollution of the environment, with serious consequences for 35:29.850 --> 35:30.990 the health of the population. 35:30.990 --> 35:35.950 Now, these are, as we said earlier, good concerns, like the temperance 35:35.950 --> 35:36.290 movement. 35:36.890 --> 35:42.430 But, what is the strategic issue behind it all, you see? 35:42.910 --> 35:48.170 It is a platform on which all the world can unite to form a one world government. 35:48.290 --> 35:52.230 Bob, it's going to be a good concern when the sunny laws are passed, when people 35:52.230 --> 35:53.230 receive the mark of the beast. 35:53.410 --> 35:55.330 We've got to do this to save our country. 35:55.510 --> 35:56.950 We've got to do this to save the world. 35:57.050 --> 35:59.210 Of course, it's going to be a, quote, good concern. 35:59.210 --> 36:06.130 And you see, John, what happens is, it brings the order of this world in 36:06.130 --> 36:09.230 direct conflict with the order of heaven. 36:09.670 --> 36:13.430 The order of heaven, and God's law, and God's word. 36:13.510 --> 36:17.690 And we, as a people, have to be deciding and purposing, like Daniel, in our heart, 36:17.990 --> 36:21.170 that we will be settled into God's word. 36:21.170 --> 36:26.390 So we will not be moved, and we will submit and surrender, in absolute 36:26.390 --> 36:28.590 surrender, to the Lord. 36:29.190 --> 36:32.590 Once again, it is evident that development, the planning which governs 36:32.590 --> 36:36.310 it, and the way in which resources are used, must include respect for moral 36:36.310 --> 36:36.930 demands. 36:37.650 --> 36:41.990 One of the latter undoubtedly imposes limits on the use of the natural world. 36:43.410 --> 36:46.450 And so, let me read a few more passages in here. 36:46.450 --> 36:55.350 In connection with this Earth Summit, I'd like to read some statements here. 36:56.150 --> 37:02.110 Before this World Summit was ever put underway, Pope John Paul II had been 37:02.110 --> 37:03.570 organizing this years ago. 37:03.590 --> 37:07.030 Well, this was 1987, when the encyclical came out. 37:07.810 --> 37:09.190 Here, from Maurice F. 37:09.410 --> 37:13.830 Strong, a direct quote, he is Secretary General of the United Nations Conference 37:13.830 --> 37:15.390 on Environment and Development. 37:15.390 --> 37:21.490 The Earth Summit must establish a whole new basis for relations between rich and 37:21.490 --> 37:22.930 poor, North and South. 37:23.030 --> 37:27.810 Notice, almost identical language, including a concerted attack on poverty. 37:27.970 --> 37:30.190 And that's a big issue in this encyclical, too. 37:30.710 --> 37:34.370 The preferential option for the poor, and the Jesuits have been talking about 37:34.370 --> 37:39.350 that for decades, as a central priority for the 21st century. 37:39.350 --> 37:44.950 This is now as imperative in terms of our environmental security as it is on moral 37:44.950 --> 37:46.410 and humanitarian grounds. 37:46.970 --> 37:51.190 We owe at least this much to future generations, from whom we have borrowed a 37:51.190 --> 37:53.630 fragile planet called Earth. 37:53.870 --> 37:56.170 Now, John, I want to just get a book over here. 37:56.570 --> 38:03.970 It's so obvious, Bob, that the underpinning of this entire environmental 38:03.970 --> 38:07.890 movement has been the Roman Catholic Church. 38:07.890 --> 38:09.130 That is so unbelievable! 38:09.330 --> 38:15.490 Who would have ever suspected that the Roman Catholic Church was underlying all 38:15.490 --> 38:15.970 of this? 38:16.110 --> 38:19.070 You see the environmental issue everywhere. 38:19.770 --> 38:24.570 I was amazed, John, as I was reading the dictionary of the ecumenical movement, 38:24.630 --> 38:28.770 just perusing it and looking at the section on the United Nations, 38:29.390 --> 38:36.430 the enormous influence that the World Council of Churches exerts in the United 38:36.430 --> 38:36.870 Nations. 38:36.870 --> 38:43.450 And in our prior videos, we looked at the enormous collaboration between Rome and 38:43.450 --> 38:44.970 the World Council of Churches. 38:45.270 --> 38:51.890 Now, I'd like to just read a pledge that is to be circulated in many languages. 38:52.630 --> 38:53.510 The Earth Covenant. 38:54.830 --> 38:56.130 What is the Earth Covenant? 38:56.330 --> 39:00.170 The Earth Covenant is a major public initiative relating to the Earth Summit. 39:00.170 --> 39:02.330 It consists of a one-sentence pledge. 39:02.930 --> 39:06.270 The United Nations expects hundreds of millions of people in every part of the 39:06.270 --> 39:09.250 world will sign or offer their thumbprint to the Covenant. 39:09.730 --> 39:14.970 The pledge to be circulated in many languages reads as follows, Recognizing 39:14.970 --> 39:20.410 that people's actions toward nature and each other are the source of growing 39:20.410 --> 39:25.170 damage to the environment and resources needed to meet human needs and ensure 39:25.170 --> 39:30.490 survival and development, I pledge to act to the best of my ability to help make the 39:30.490 --> 39:36.190 Earth a secure and hospitable home for present and future generations. 39:36.190 --> 39:43.510 So, they're interested in having hundreds of millions of people signing this pledge. 39:44.210 --> 39:47.550 I have some material here, John, about your Orlando area. 39:48.890 --> 39:51.570 That's the logo right there that we see all over Orlando. 39:51.570 --> 39:54.970 Right, the and sign, and you. 39:55.330 --> 39:55.370 Yes. 39:55.910 --> 39:56.170 Right. 39:57.050 --> 39:58.330 Celebration and you. 39:59.570 --> 40:00.450 Ampersand you. 40:00.570 --> 40:01.730 Yes, ampersand you. 40:02.250 --> 40:04.570 America's first city of light. 40:04.570 --> 40:10.130 On Saturday, this is a response from the Orlando mayor to the president. 40:11.050 --> 40:14.750 The president said, on Monday, the points of light will come to Orlando, 40:14.950 --> 40:15.310 Florida. 40:16.210 --> 40:19.190 Barbara and I will take part in a national tribute in their honor. 40:19.770 --> 40:23.710 And he talks about, imagine if all points of light lived in one place. 40:24.250 --> 40:28.430 And he talks about the community, a community of light. 40:29.010 --> 40:31.210 See, Satan comes as an angel of light. 40:31.210 --> 40:34.050 His whole agenda, he presents as light. 40:34.450 --> 40:39.670 But it disregards the thing that we spoke about, first of all, about the fall of man 40:39.670 --> 40:41.510 and the necessity of salvation. 40:42.590 --> 40:46.670 And in this community of light, each school, business, place of worship, 40:46.790 --> 40:50.670 and group would lead its members toward the light of service as equal partners in 40:50.670 --> 40:52.450 solving social problems at their root. 40:52.850 --> 40:56.650 In a community of light, people would use their ingenuity, experience, and passion 40:56.650 --> 41:00.170 to find solutions that work for their neighborhoods, their communities. 41:00.170 --> 41:05.410 They would adopt other people's successful programs and efforts to meet their needs. 41:05.450 --> 41:07.210 Or, if necessary, they would craft their own. 41:07.610 --> 41:11.830 In a community of light, everyone will be sought after for their own gifts. 41:12.650 --> 41:16.610 It's not difficult to see how this could tie in with the New Age. 41:16.810 --> 41:17.770 It is New Age. 41:17.810 --> 41:19.170 The points of light is New Age. 41:19.370 --> 41:20.770 That's not difficult to see. 41:20.870 --> 41:21.730 That's not hard to see. 41:21.850 --> 41:27.330 The thing that is so unbelievable is that it's tied into Roman Catholicism. 41:27.610 --> 41:29.310 That's the thing that's so startling. 41:29.310 --> 41:31.730 It's easy to see New Age in this. 41:31.990 --> 41:32.250 Yes. 41:34.010 --> 41:35.450 Here, the celebration. 41:36.790 --> 41:38.910 A gathering of community spirit. 41:39.490 --> 41:44.210 Now, John, I'm going to get back here in just a second to the encyclical, 41:44.370 --> 41:48.570 but I just have so many things that I don't want to leave out here. 41:48.570 --> 41:49.410 Don't leave it out. 41:49.550 --> 41:50.730 We'll keep the camera rolling. 41:50.830 --> 41:51.870 Don't worry about that, Bob. 41:51.910 --> 41:52.510 You know that. 41:52.510 --> 41:59.390 In this book here by Leonard Peikoff, The Ominous Parallels, Leonard Peikoff 41:59.390 --> 42:04.150 analyzes what happened in Nazi Germany. 42:06.230 --> 42:08.610 Let me read a quote here, John. 42:09.270 --> 42:14.030 Quote, It is thus necessary that the individual should finally come to realize 42:14.030 --> 42:18.210 that his own ego is of no importance in comparison with the existence of his 42:18.210 --> 42:18.690 nation. 42:19.510 --> 42:23.290 Now, remember that this is what Caiaphas said about Jesus. 42:23.530 --> 42:28.350 It is better that one man should perish and that the nation perish not. 42:28.490 --> 42:28.730 That's right. 42:29.630 --> 42:30.250 That's what he said. 42:30.430 --> 42:34.850 This is the whole philosophy behind this issue of the power of death as it relates 42:34.850 --> 42:38.170 to the community and love in the New Age. 42:38.670 --> 42:45.010 You see, those who hold to their own ideas stubbornly, their ideas must be put under 42:45.010 --> 42:45.850 the power of death. 42:45.930 --> 42:47.270 They must be exterminated. 42:47.270 --> 42:47.590 Yes. 42:48.030 --> 42:52.290 That the position of the individual ego is conditioned solely by the interests of the 42:52.290 --> 42:53.230 nation as a whole. 42:53.370 --> 42:55.270 So here you have this community concept. 42:55.730 --> 42:57.270 It's called collectivism. 42:58.630 --> 43:03.770 That above all, the unity of a nation's spirit and will are worth far more than 43:03.770 --> 43:06.010 the freedom of the spirit and will of an individual. 43:06.710 --> 43:10.890 Now, let me ask you, John, when our nation was established, was it established by 43:10.890 --> 43:12.130 strong individuals? 43:12.530 --> 43:12.950 Absolutely. 43:13.450 --> 43:16.350 And they wanted a nation where the individual could be free? 43:16.350 --> 43:16.910 Absolutely. 43:16.910 --> 43:20.550 He could have his freedom in his home. 43:20.730 --> 43:23.110 He could have freedom to worship God as he chose. 43:23.470 --> 43:26.170 The Bill of Rights is there to guarantee freedom. 43:26.190 --> 43:26.810 Give me liberty or give me death. 43:26.890 --> 43:32.690 But what we are hearing now more and more and more is we have to fit into the 43:32.690 --> 43:33.450 community. 43:33.670 --> 43:35.610 That's what we're hearing in the church, Bob. 43:35.670 --> 43:37.430 That is exactly what we're hearing in the church. 43:37.430 --> 43:39.670 See, it all is spilling over in a wash. 43:39.770 --> 43:43.130 Because everyone who is not being transformed by the renewing of their mind 43:43.130 --> 43:46.890 in Christ Jesus is being conformed to the world about them. 43:47.170 --> 43:50.210 We've all got to fit together, fit together, fit together, work together. 43:50.590 --> 43:52.330 It sounds wonderful. 43:52.570 --> 43:53.490 Oh, it sounds wonderful. 43:53.950 --> 43:58.510 And you see, self-sacrifice is being used to describe this. 43:59.150 --> 44:01.310 Hitler was big on self-sacrifice. 44:02.190 --> 44:11.870 And we have to understand what we are to sacrifice self to, to Christ or to the 44:11.870 --> 44:16.730 community that is alienated from Christ, but that speaks fine words like a lamb, 44:17.430 --> 44:19.450 but is actually like a dragon. 44:20.150 --> 44:24.410 This state of mind which subordinates the interests of the ego to the conservation 44:24.410 --> 44:29.850 of the community is really the first premise for every truly human culture. 44:29.850 --> 44:35.030 The basic attitude from which such activity arises, we call to distinguish it 44:35.030 --> 44:37.690 from egoism and selfishness, idealism. 44:38.230 --> 44:42.610 By this we understand only the individual's capacity to make sacrifices 44:42.610 --> 44:44.890 for the community, for his fellow men. 44:45.590 --> 44:50.610 Now, I read this at a camp meeting and I asked the people, who do you think said 44:50.610 --> 44:50.910 that? 44:51.070 --> 44:52.290 I didn't tell them who it was. 44:52.610 --> 44:56.210 Some thought George Bush and others thought other great men. 44:56.730 --> 44:59.790 And when I told them it was Adolf Hitler, they were shocked. 45:02.510 --> 45:06.230 These statements were made by Adolf Hitler, page 13 still. 45:06.330 --> 45:09.770 He was explaining the moral philosophy of Nazism. 45:11.250 --> 45:15.970 These statements were made in our century by the leader of a major western nation. 45:16.090 --> 45:18.790 His countrymen regarded his viewpoint as uncontroversial. 45:19.770 --> 45:22.070 His political program implemented it faithfully. 45:22.690 --> 45:27.210 And here is the ultimate practice as described by William Shearer in The Rise 45:27.210 --> 45:28.250 and Fall of the Third Reich. 45:28.250 --> 45:35.410 The gas chambers themselves at Auschwitz in the adjoining crematoria viewed from a 45:35.410 --> 45:38.050 short distance were not sinister looking places at all. 45:38.570 --> 45:41.370 It was impossible to make them out for what they were. 45:41.870 --> 45:44.730 Over them were well kept lawns with flower borders. 45:45.250 --> 45:47.520 The signs at the entrances merely said baths. 45:48.290 --> 45:53.890 You know, I've been in Dachau and I've been inside those gas chambers there. 45:53.890 --> 45:58.590 Yet that's what the general conference president accused the independent 45:58.590 --> 45:59.970 ministries of being guilty of. 46:00.050 --> 46:03.050 The same crimes that went on at Auschwitz and Dachau. 46:03.210 --> 46:03.550 Yes. 46:03.930 --> 46:07.810 The unsuspecting Jews thought that they were simply being taken to the baths for 46:07.810 --> 46:11.910 the delousing, which was customary at all camps, and taken to the accompaniment of 46:11.910 --> 46:14.110 sweet music, for there was light music. 46:14.590 --> 46:18.570 An orchestra of young and pretty girls, all dressed in white blouses and navy blue 46:18.570 --> 46:22.490 skirts, as one survivor remembered, had been formed from among the inmates. 46:22.490 --> 46:27.210 While the selection was being made for the gas chambers, this unique musical ensemble 46:27.210 --> 46:32.510 played gay tunes from the Merry Widow and Tales of Hoffman, nothing solemn and 46:32.510 --> 46:33.650 somber from Beethoven. 46:33.910 --> 46:37.890 The death marches at Auschwitz were sprightly and merry tunes straight out of 46:37.890 --> 46:39.530 Viennese and Parisian operetta. 46:40.390 --> 46:41.570 Can you imagine that? 46:41.770 --> 46:42.950 Can you imagine that? 46:44.210 --> 46:48.790 To such music, recalling as it did happier and more frivolous times, the men, 46:48.850 --> 46:52.730 women, and children were led into the bath houses, where they were told to undress 46:52.730 --> 46:54.190 preparatory to taking a shower. 46:54.630 --> 46:56.330 Sometimes they were even given towels. 46:57.130 --> 47:00.730 Once they were inside the shower room, and perhaps this was the first moment that 47:00.730 --> 47:04.790 they may have suspected something was amiss, for as many as 2,000 of them were 47:04.790 --> 47:09.190 packed into the chamber like sardines, making it difficult to take a bath. 47:09.470 --> 47:12.790 The massive door was slid shut, locked, and hermetically sealed. 47:12.790 --> 47:16.910 Up above, where the well-groomed lawn and flower beds almost concealed the 47:16.910 --> 47:21.790 mushroom-shaped lids of vents that ran up from the hall of death, orderly stood 47:21.790 --> 47:26.950 ready to drop into them the amethyst blue crystals of hydrogen cyanide. 47:27.230 --> 47:28.670 I won't read the rest of it. 47:28.770 --> 47:31.610 It is too horrendous to read, John. 47:32.110 --> 47:39.430 But the voters, when they voted in the Nazi ideology, they were aware of this 47:39.430 --> 47:40.270 Nazi ideology. 47:40.270 --> 47:48.270 Mein Kampf had been published by Hitler, and it sold more than 200,000 copies 47:48.270 --> 47:50.990 between 1925 and 1932. 47:52.110 --> 47:58.400 But the issue we're looking at here is the issue of collectivism. 47:58.950 --> 48:03.230 It's the theory that the group, the collective, has primacy over the 48:03.230 --> 48:03.750 individual. 48:04.270 --> 48:06.190 We're struggling with that in our own church. 48:06.270 --> 48:08.490 Does the hierarchy have primacy over the individual? 48:08.490 --> 48:11.130 Does the group have primacy over the individual? 48:11.670 --> 48:15.410 And now we are looking on a worldwide scene, a conditioning process, 48:15.770 --> 48:20.530 calling for people to submit, to surrender, and every person is to be 48:20.530 --> 48:23.670 canvassed to try to draw them into these communities of light. 48:24.170 --> 48:29.970 You see, Hitler said in Mein Kampf that we have to be bearing children that have the 48:29.970 --> 48:30.890 image of the Lord. 48:31.350 --> 48:37.810 Sounds beautiful, but that is the concept of the order of nature, of coming in 48:37.810 --> 48:43.250 harmony with the order of nature, submitting in conformity to the order of 48:43.250 --> 48:49.010 nature, and in order to preserve the purity of Aryan blood so that it reached 48:49.010 --> 48:52.770 its highest potential, which is fundamental to the order of reason strain 48:52.770 --> 48:56.930 of natural law, the subhuman races have to be purged. 48:57.670 --> 48:58.150 Purged! 48:58.230 --> 48:59.070 That's a nice word. 48:59.090 --> 49:05.130 Yes, just like Shiva in Hinduism that Himmler would read the Vedas and all of 49:05.130 --> 49:05.290 this. 49:05.290 --> 49:13.270 We have to purge away, like you cut off a bad branch on a tree, for the good of 49:13.270 --> 49:14.250 humanity, you see. 49:14.350 --> 49:16.270 That was the idea, that was the philosophy. 49:16.770 --> 49:18.530 That's the dangerous philosophy. 49:18.910 --> 49:24.910 Collectivism holds that in human affairs, the collective, society, the community, 49:25.070 --> 49:30.230 the nation, the proletariat, the race, etc., is the unit of reality and the 49:30.230 --> 49:31.510 standard of value. 49:31.510 --> 49:36.270 So you see, when the community becomes the standard of value instead of the word of 49:36.270 --> 49:40.330 God being the standard of value, we have the gas chambers that come in. 49:40.730 --> 49:45.850 Because those who don't submit to the community are like a bad branch that will 49:45.850 --> 49:48.470 disease the whole community and they have to be cut away. 49:48.670 --> 49:51.730 That's what they're saying about the, quote, dissidents in the Seventh-day 49:51.730 --> 49:54.610 Adventist church, that they are going to ruin the whole church and they've got to 49:54.610 --> 49:55.110 be cut away. 49:55.190 --> 49:57.970 We've got to get rid of these people because they're ruining our church. 49:58.110 --> 50:01.390 And if we can just get rid of these people that are supporting these dissident, 50:01.570 --> 50:04.870 independent ministries and these troublemakers in our church, then we can 50:04.870 --> 50:06.690 have unity once again in our church. 50:06.890 --> 50:09.970 You see, this concept is not just global. 50:10.110 --> 50:14.430 It's down to the very grassroots of our individual churches. 50:14.730 --> 50:19.150 This concept has permeated our denomination, our nation, and our world. 50:19.650 --> 50:26.050 In fact, John, the Troy church that took your name in, at a recent constituency 50:26.050 --> 50:33.490 meeting, a man came up to one of the leaders of the Troy church and said that a 50:33.490 --> 50:40.490 church like yours is going to have to be cut off like a diseased branch from the 50:40.490 --> 50:42.210 rest of the sisterhood of churches. 50:42.430 --> 50:42.830 Exactly what you said. 50:43.150 --> 50:43.870 It's the same kind of thing. 50:43.870 --> 50:45.710 And you see, this is exactly what's going on in Angwin. 50:45.730 --> 50:50.110 The Angwin church took my membership there in Angwin, California, and they went to 50:50.110 --> 50:53.570 the conference president about some horrendous things that were taking place 50:53.570 --> 50:56.430 just a few miles away in the Pacific Union College church. 50:56.650 --> 50:59.050 And he said, how can we do anything about that? 50:59.310 --> 51:02.850 You know, them bringing in this non-Adventist... 51:03.690 --> 51:04.330 Episcopalian priest. 51:04.770 --> 51:08.090 Episcopalian priest and leading them in spiritual exercises, teaching them how to 51:08.090 --> 51:09.350 speak in tongues and whatnot. 51:09.570 --> 51:12.150 And they went to the conference president and they said, you've got to do something 51:12.150 --> 51:12.610 about this. 51:12.630 --> 51:14.030 He said, what can we do about that? 51:14.150 --> 51:18.990 When the Angwin church brings in dissidents like John Osborne, we can't do 51:18.990 --> 51:21.190 anything about this as long as they are doing things like that. 51:21.190 --> 51:25.630 In other words, the Angwin church has to be cut away before we can have unity in 51:25.630 --> 51:26.650 our conference. 51:26.990 --> 51:27.670 Right, and purity. 51:27.830 --> 51:28.770 Purity, yes. 51:29.150 --> 51:34.970 On this view, the individual has reality only as part of the group, and value only 51:34.970 --> 51:36.770 insofar as he serves it. 51:37.070 --> 51:44.110 Now, in the gospel, John, what gives the individual reality and worth and value? 51:44.310 --> 51:45.710 The cross of Calvary. 51:45.890 --> 51:47.350 The cross of Calvary. 51:47.430 --> 51:49.070 Jesus would have died for only one. 51:49.670 --> 51:56.590 And you see, in the gospel, we hear about the remnant in the book of Revelation. 51:56.790 --> 52:00.150 The remnant, those who are left over, who are the faithful and true. 52:00.390 --> 52:04.890 Not the majority, the majority community that unites itself together. 52:05.590 --> 52:09.550 Incidentally, John, I want to just read in this context, and we'll get back to all of 52:09.550 --> 52:10.290 this in just a second. 52:11.650 --> 52:12.610 Revelation 16. 52:14.710 --> 52:16.570 Revelation 16, verse 13. 52:17.110 --> 52:22.170 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon. 52:22.630 --> 52:23.770 That's spiritualism. 52:23.850 --> 52:26.070 Out of the mouth of the beast, Roman Catholicism. 52:26.130 --> 52:29.110 And out of the mouth of the false prophet, Prostate Protestantism. 52:29.470 --> 52:32.110 There's that threefold union that we just talked about here. 52:32.370 --> 52:36.410 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the 52:36.410 --> 52:42.430 kings of the earth and of the whole world to gather them to the battle of that great 52:42.430 --> 52:44.030 day of God Almighty. 52:44.950 --> 52:47.370 So, they are gathering the nations. 52:48.010 --> 52:53.610 And Rome is interested in finding causes to gather the people together. 52:54.350 --> 52:56.950 It is, you know, it is very interesting, John. 52:56.970 --> 53:02.770 Right after Vatican II, for example, we had the hippie movement that started. 53:03.050 --> 53:03.690 When? 53:04.010 --> 53:04.550 67? 53:04.730 --> 53:05.070 68? 53:05.070 --> 53:08.930 We're not going to tie the hippie movement in with Roman Catholicism. 53:08.930 --> 53:15.650 Vatican II called for cooperation with the non-Christian religions. 53:16.430 --> 53:18.910 You have the Beatles singing what kind of songs? 53:19.230 --> 53:20.330 My Sweet Lord. 53:20.830 --> 53:21.550 And who is that? 53:22.130 --> 53:22.610 Hare Krishna. 53:22.730 --> 53:23.210 Hare Krishna. 53:24.110 --> 53:25.770 Introducing Hare Krishna to the young people. 53:25.770 --> 53:26.910 Don't even say that at the end. 53:27.030 --> 53:28.450 Yes, to the young people. 53:29.050 --> 53:32.410 And then they sing about Let It Be. 53:32.750 --> 53:38.050 Mother Mary, when she comes to me in times of trouble, speaking words of wisdom, 53:38.230 --> 53:38.690 let it be. 53:38.690 --> 53:43.770 When I was going to school at La Sierra, just to show how far back this apostasy 53:43.770 --> 53:47.950 goes, they were singing Let It Be in the Sabbath school at Loma Linda. 53:48.310 --> 53:50.230 And that is a song about Mary. 53:50.610 --> 53:55.150 So, you have Mary, you have Hare Krishna, all being brought into the youth. 53:55.370 --> 53:58.790 There was an enormous youth upheaval right after Vatican II. 53:58.870 --> 54:03.050 At the same time, the charismatic movement was being introduced and exploding in the 54:03.050 --> 54:05.490 Roman Catholic Church all over Europe. 54:05.490 --> 54:11.450 I traveled in Europe at that very time, about 66, 67, with my family. 54:11.990 --> 54:17.670 And all over Europe, you have these hippies that are into spiritualism. 54:17.910 --> 54:20.290 You have hundreds of hippies coming from America. 54:20.570 --> 54:25.730 We traveled a few years later in Nepal, and we heard them tell us there of how 54:25.730 --> 54:29.610 hundreds and thousands of American youth, as a result of the hippie movement, 54:29.890 --> 54:35.530 came over to Nepal looking for Shangri-La, and the Nepalese authorities had to put 54:35.530 --> 54:40.850 them by the hundreds on trains and ship them down to ports in India to be shipped 54:40.850 --> 54:42.330 back to America. 54:42.670 --> 54:44.490 But why was there a big upheaval? 54:45.470 --> 54:52.650 In Germany, just before Hitler took control, a few years before, you had the 54:52.650 --> 54:54.570 phenomenon called the Wandervogel. 54:55.090 --> 54:55.750 The what? 54:56.350 --> 54:57.030 Wandervogel. 54:57.170 --> 54:57.810 Wandervogel? 54:57.890 --> 55:00.970 Yes, it was when there was a hippie movement in Germany. 55:00.970 --> 55:07.010 And you had these children of middle-class families walking all over Germany, 55:07.190 --> 55:12.290 drifting all over, you know, into nature and all of these things, just like the 55:12.290 --> 55:12.890 hippie movement. 55:13.330 --> 55:18.210 Those young people then were formed into the Free Corps, they were called, 55:18.570 --> 55:24.650 to do battle in the streets against the communists, and they eventually became the 55:24.650 --> 55:28.770 hard core of the German military, or the Nazi movement. 55:28.770 --> 55:33.450 And it's the hippies of the 60s that are becoming the hard core leadership of our 55:33.450 --> 55:35.370 nation and our church right now. 55:35.910 --> 55:37.910 And they're the promoting New Age and all of this. 55:38.630 --> 55:42.590 And you see, it happened right after Vatican II. 55:42.790 --> 55:45.990 And this happened in Germany before World War II, before Nazism? 55:46.350 --> 55:46.970 Exactly. 55:47.870 --> 55:54.990 And those hippies there became the avant-garde of the Nazi SS and the German 55:54.990 --> 55:55.870 military machine. 55:55.870 --> 56:01.430 You yourself in Jesuit Agenda 1 said to me, just as I did, you said, I knew that 56:01.430 --> 56:07.570 when my generation came into power in this nation and in this church, that we were in 56:07.570 --> 56:09.130 for a... 56:09.130 --> 56:10.150 Enormous upheaval. 56:10.510 --> 56:11.390 Enormous upheaval. 56:12.230 --> 56:15.690 And this has all been repeated from what happened in Germany. 56:15.710 --> 56:17.530 You see, what do the Jesuits want to do? 56:18.310 --> 56:23.050 They know that if they can get the youth, if they can get the oncoming generation 56:23.050 --> 56:30.130 and create an upheaval so that they break up all their ties to other things and they 56:30.130 --> 56:36.290 get reoriented to certain causes, they are a mighty force to be used. 56:36.910 --> 56:42.250 And we see 50 years ago this phenomenon of the hippie movement in Germany. 56:42.730 --> 56:45.510 We see the collectivism that came in. 56:45.790 --> 56:48.370 Today we have the hippie movement right after Vatican II. 56:48.470 --> 56:51.310 We see this massive worldwide collectivism. 56:51.310 --> 56:56.470 See, Nazism was like a trial run, and it had both strains of Roman Catholic 56:56.470 --> 56:58.170 natural law at its foundation. 56:58.990 --> 57:02.930 We still want to get, of course, into the systematic analysis of it. 57:03.730 --> 57:09.470 But here, let me read to you a little more from page 17 here about collectivism. 57:09.910 --> 57:14.830 The individual has reality only as part of the group and value insofar as he serves 57:14.830 --> 57:15.070 it. 57:15.390 --> 57:18.090 On his own he has no political rights. 57:18.090 --> 57:25.130 Incidentally, I was just reading a few months ago the book on constitutional law 57:25.130 --> 57:30.690 written by Lawrence Tribe, one of the foremost liberal constitutional law 57:30.690 --> 57:32.570 scholars in the nation from Harvard. 57:33.430 --> 57:37.910 And he said that the First Amendment right, that's the right of free exercise 57:37.910 --> 57:44.790 of religion and non-establishment of religion, the First Amendment rights now, 57:44.930 --> 57:51.410 according to law, are available to the individual only through the group to which 57:51.410 --> 57:52.690 he belongs. 57:52.970 --> 57:55.470 And when I read that, I thought, Aha! 57:56.770 --> 58:00.130 Only available through the group or the church to which he belongs? 58:00.930 --> 58:02.570 And I preached this. 58:03.150 --> 58:06.390 I told about this in a sermon, and a woman came up to me afterwards and 58:06.390 --> 58:08.110 she said, Bob, I've been through it. 58:08.190 --> 58:09.650 I know what you're talking about. 58:09.650 --> 58:14.930 She said, I came into a conflict because of my personal convictions with the 58:14.930 --> 58:16.570 situation in my local church. 58:16.630 --> 58:18.510 The issue went to a court of law. 58:19.850 --> 58:25.050 And an analysis was made of the church's position in contradistinction to my 58:25.050 --> 58:26.030 individual conscience. 58:26.770 --> 58:31.090 And I lost the case because I was not part of that group, you see. 58:31.310 --> 58:35.710 And now we have a phenomenon where the faithful are being disfellowshipped and 58:35.710 --> 58:37.010 disenfranchised. 58:37.010 --> 58:42.190 If that principle continues to hold true, that Lawrence Tribe mentioned, 58:43.130 --> 58:48.990 disenfranchised from protection of being a member of a church, you see, in the face 58:48.990 --> 58:49.510 of the law. 58:49.670 --> 58:54.310 You know with the Supreme Court now, the majority being Roman Catholics, 58:54.510 --> 58:58.190 believing in natural law, and isn't that all we heard in the Clarence Thomas thing 58:58.190 --> 59:01.930 of natural law, that it's going to come right down, trickle down, right down, 59:02.750 --> 59:05.750 across our nation and throughout our church. 59:05.990 --> 59:06.050 Right. 59:06.710 --> 59:08.150 That's not difficult to see. 59:08.830 --> 59:09.530 That's right. 59:09.970 --> 59:12.550 You see, this... and let me tell you this, John. 59:13.770 --> 59:21.150 From my study of Jesuit writings, one of the major concerns of the Jesuit 59:21.150 --> 59:25.010 order is to change people's worldviews. 59:25.210 --> 59:26.510 And that's what we're looking at here. 59:26.590 --> 59:30.790 To change people's worldview, for instance, in America, from individual 59:30.790 --> 59:34.170 rights and the supremacy of individual rights, and we'll look at it in a 59:34.170 --> 59:38.830 detailed, systematic way shortly, to the idea that the community is the 59:38.830 --> 59:43.410 all-important thing and the individual must be sacrificed to the community. 59:43.750 --> 59:48.510 Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1992, that is what is happening in our 59:48.510 --> 59:49.090 denomination. 59:49.490 --> 59:55.130 Have you ever... did you ever believe it would be possible, in such a short time, 59:55.130 --> 01:00:01.550 to have the global worldview of the Seventh-day Adventist denomination change 01:00:01.550 --> 01:00:03.890 as much as it has in the last year or two? 01:00:03.890 --> 01:00:03.890 No. 01:00:03.910 --> 01:00:04.890 And it's accelerating. 01:00:05.450 --> 01:00:05.450 Unbelievable. 01:00:05.630 --> 01:00:06.370 It's frightening. 01:00:06.470 --> 01:00:06.750 Yes. 01:00:07.450 --> 01:00:10.490 He, on his own, he has no political rights. 01:00:10.630 --> 01:00:14.170 He has to be sacrificed for the group whenever it or its representative, 01:00:14.450 --> 01:00:16.190 the state, deems this desirable. 01:00:17.410 --> 01:00:21.510 Fascism, said one of its leading spokesmen, Alfredo Rocco, stresses, 01:00:21.510 --> 01:00:25.870 the necessity for which the older doctrines make little allowance of 01:00:25.870 --> 01:00:29.510 sacrifice, even up to the total immolation, that's the destruction, 01:00:29.850 --> 01:00:32.070 of individuals in behalf of society. 01:00:34.610 --> 01:00:37.390 So, that's very interesting. 01:00:37.570 --> 01:00:41.730 And here we come here to the celebration, a gathering of community spirit. 01:00:42.750 --> 01:00:45.290 And listen to the wonderful way in which it's presented. 01:00:45.750 --> 01:00:50.070 Once upon a time, not so very long ago, children played in neighborhood streets. 01:00:50.550 --> 01:00:54.810 Sounds of young laughter echoed through open kitchen windows in preparation of the 01:00:54.810 --> 01:00:56.010 gathering of the family dinner. 01:00:56.910 --> 01:01:00.110 Once upon a time, not so very long ago, there was a sense of family. 01:01:00.390 --> 01:01:03.610 But I ask you, John, why was there a sense of family? 01:01:03.810 --> 01:01:04.670 Because of Christ. 01:01:04.790 --> 01:01:05.730 Because of Christ? 01:01:06.910 --> 01:01:08.050 Because of Protestantism. 01:01:08.450 --> 01:01:09.090 Protestantism, exactly. 01:01:09.090 --> 01:01:13.030 And let me quickly grab something here so we don't lose it. 01:01:13.350 --> 01:01:14.930 Lose it in our train of thought. 01:01:16.350 --> 01:01:17.130 This book. 01:01:17.670 --> 01:01:19.070 We've used that, that before. 01:01:19.070 --> 01:01:20.270 By John Kirtney Murray. 01:01:20.370 --> 01:01:24.210 I just want to emphasize once again, top Jesuit, John Kirtney Murray. 01:01:24.330 --> 01:01:27.430 We hold these truths, Catholic reflections, on the American proposition. 01:01:27.950 --> 01:01:36.210 He lays out in here the massive shift in America from the old Protestant values of 01:01:36.210 --> 01:01:41.710 the Bible being supreme, of submission to the Bible, of acceptance of the Bible, 01:01:41.850 --> 01:01:47.970 and acting on the Bible, and having self-sacrificing love as your motive, 01:01:47.970 --> 01:01:53.190 and the supremacy of subjective rights, and how that has all been destroyed in 01:01:53.190 --> 01:01:59.510 public life now through relativism and situationalism, and that is preparing the 01:01:59.510 --> 01:02:01.930 way for Roman Catholic natural law. 01:02:02.090 --> 01:02:06.790 Bob, I hate to keep harping on this, but this is exactly what we're seeing in 01:02:06.790 --> 01:02:07.210 the Church. 01:02:07.670 --> 01:02:13.210 Nothing that is decreed, nothing that is done when people are disfellowshipped, 01:02:13.510 --> 01:02:16.030 is anything said about the Bible and the spirit of prophecy. 01:02:16.030 --> 01:02:19.230 Everything is the Church manual, the Church manual, the Church manual, 01:02:19.310 --> 01:02:19.950 the Church manual. 01:02:20.290 --> 01:02:25.250 Anytime that somebody is disciplined or disfellowshipped, they always are on a 01:02:25.250 --> 01:02:26.870 page such and such of the Church manual. 01:02:28.090 --> 01:02:32.450 Why have we gotten away from this, that everything is in the Bible and the 01:02:32.450 --> 01:02:33.010 spirit of prophecy? 01:02:33.090 --> 01:02:35.750 We don't use that in the Seventh-day Adventist Church anymore for the 01:02:35.750 --> 01:02:36.990 foundation of why we do things. 01:02:37.090 --> 01:02:39.210 It's now, what does the Church manual say? 01:02:39.290 --> 01:02:41.910 I see this exactly happening in the Church. 01:02:42.070 --> 01:02:45.310 And what does the community of faith, quote-unquote, say? 01:02:45.310 --> 01:02:49.510 You see, that is a good Jesuit term, the community of faith. 01:02:49.610 --> 01:02:51.090 What does the, quote, Church say? 01:02:51.170 --> 01:02:52.350 What does the General Conference say? 01:02:52.510 --> 01:02:53.790 What does the Church manual say? 01:02:54.010 --> 01:02:56.610 Instead of what we're used to, what does the Bible and the spirit of 01:02:56.610 --> 01:02:57.070 prophecy say? 01:02:57.290 --> 01:02:59.650 It's what does the community of faith, what does the General Conference, 01:02:59.830 --> 01:03:01.150 what does the Church manual say? 01:03:01.710 --> 01:03:02.830 John, here's the next one. 01:03:03.190 --> 01:03:07.790 Once upon a time, not so very long ago, teachers were recognized as revered 01:03:07.790 --> 01:03:08.150 leaders. 01:03:08.710 --> 01:03:13.150 They guided the innocent with wisdom and courage, empowered by an innate love of 01:03:13.150 --> 01:03:13.370 children. 01:03:13.370 --> 01:03:14.170 Sounds wonderful. 01:03:14.430 --> 01:03:20.150 But John, if you travel to Varanasi in India, and I've been there, the Mecca of 01:03:20.150 --> 01:03:24.690 India, of Hinduism, the degradation is unbelievable. 01:03:25.150 --> 01:03:26.950 You don't see a city of light there. 01:03:27.110 --> 01:03:29.510 You see a city of unbelievable darkness. 01:03:30.030 --> 01:03:35.170 We came in our bus and here were, there was right outside our bus a dog with 01:03:35.170 --> 01:03:37.310 an enormous ulcer on his mouth. 01:03:37.350 --> 01:03:38.270 I have a picture of him. 01:03:38.670 --> 01:03:43.630 The degradation, the filth, and the stench of the city was unbelievable. 01:03:43.870 --> 01:03:44.730 This is Hinduism. 01:03:45.070 --> 01:03:47.890 This has been tried for centuries, John. 01:03:48.170 --> 01:03:53.590 The Bhagavad Gita has been around for about five, longer than the complete 01:03:53.590 --> 01:03:55.170 Bible, thousands of years. 01:03:55.730 --> 01:03:58.590 And Hinduism has been tried to the ultimate. 01:03:58.830 --> 01:04:03.270 And it has, the verdict of history is that it produces unbelievable degradation, 01:04:03.590 --> 01:04:08.910 pornography, evil, and the caste system, all of these things. 01:04:08.910 --> 01:04:14.250 And now Hinduism is coming in as an angel of light to the Western society and has 01:04:14.250 --> 01:04:20.170 been largely promulgated through rock music to the young people of the nation. 01:04:20.830 --> 01:04:23.950 That was our era that did that, through the Beatles were very influential 01:04:23.950 --> 01:04:24.650 in that bond. 01:04:25.290 --> 01:04:29.110 And here, once upon a time, not so very long ago, happy moments seemed more 01:04:29.110 --> 01:04:32.370 plentiful as we reveled in the carefree merriment of the good life. 01:04:32.950 --> 01:04:36.290 Once upon a time, not so very long ago, there was a sense of prosperity. 01:04:36.290 --> 01:04:42.790 That prosperity was due, Ellen White says, to the two horns on that beast, 01:04:43.310 --> 01:04:47.370 the lamb-like beast of Revelation 13, republicanism and Protestantism, 01:04:48.310 --> 01:04:50.550 civil liberty and religious liberty. 01:04:51.210 --> 01:04:56.450 The dynamo of Protestantism produced this prosperity and is from the wealth of the 01:04:56.450 --> 01:05:01.030 Protestant nations that the Vatican is largely being financed today because the 01:05:01.030 --> 01:05:05.050 Roman Catholic nations don't have any wealth hardly to produce because of their 01:05:05.050 --> 01:05:05.410 degradation. 01:05:05.410 --> 01:05:11.250 What we are looking at, John, is all of these dimensions of spiritualism and Roman 01:05:11.250 --> 01:05:16.210 Catholicism that the verdict of history has declared to be utterly and completely 01:05:16.210 --> 01:05:21.990 bankrupt now coming into the Protestant world, selling itself to the Protestant 01:05:21.990 --> 01:05:27.630 world as being the answer to the problem which they themselves created in the 01:05:27.630 --> 01:05:28.350 Protestant world. 01:05:29.830 --> 01:05:31.530 It's an amazing development. 01:05:32.990 --> 01:05:36.970 Once upon a time, not so very long ago, the sun laid down to rest beside us in 01:05:36.970 --> 01:05:39.650 recognition of another honest day's work gone by. 01:05:40.070 --> 01:05:41.010 There's the work ethic. 01:05:41.530 --> 01:05:42.470 Soothing breezes. 01:05:42.850 --> 01:05:47.250 Do you know that in the time of Luther there were 150 feast days out of every 01:05:47.250 --> 01:05:47.650 year? 01:05:47.970 --> 01:05:52.090 Almost one day out of every two was a feast day where they didn't work and 01:05:52.090 --> 01:05:53.230 nothing got done. 01:05:53.710 --> 01:05:56.070 The work ethic came from the Puritans. 01:05:56.830 --> 01:06:02.470 And now the new age comes in as if they have the answer to an honest day's work. 01:06:02.470 --> 01:06:11.070 You go over to India and you see those long-haired gurus sitting in the lotus 01:06:11.070 --> 01:06:16.110 position by the canals just meditating in a state of nirvana all day long. 01:06:16.490 --> 01:06:17.550 They aren't working. 01:06:18.490 --> 01:06:19.070 Tell me something. 01:06:19.250 --> 01:06:26.470 Do you see the American labor unions playing a part in this crumbling of the 01:06:26.470 --> 01:06:27.510 American work ethic? 01:06:28.850 --> 01:06:29.850 I think so, John. 01:06:29.930 --> 01:06:30.630 I think we see it. 01:06:30.630 --> 01:06:34.950 Ellen Weiss says that in the last days that the labor unions would be foremost in 01:06:34.950 --> 01:06:39.290 causing anarchy in our country, and that's why she tells us to stay out. 01:06:39.430 --> 01:06:43.470 Because you see, the American work ethic has been lost because of the labor unions. 01:06:43.590 --> 01:06:44.450 Yes, yes. 01:06:45.650 --> 01:06:47.190 A gathering of community service. 01:06:47.310 --> 01:06:51.190 Please participate in the birth of this creation, that's in Orlando here, 01:06:51.610 --> 01:06:56.290 by joining us at The Celebration, a gathering of community spirit. 01:06:56.390 --> 01:06:58.630 So this gives us another dimension to celebration. 01:06:58.630 --> 01:07:04.710 It is this collectivism, which is identical to what was in Hitler's Germany, 01:07:04.850 --> 01:07:11.430 where the individual finds his perception of reality and his sense of worth in the 01:07:11.430 --> 01:07:12.190 community. 01:07:12.590 --> 01:07:18.430 Bob, our flagship station for Prophecy Countdown, I'm on one of the major 01:07:18.430 --> 01:07:21.990 television stations here in Orlando, primetime Sunday, Sunday morning. 01:07:22.710 --> 01:07:24.150 How should I address this? 01:07:24.230 --> 01:07:29.010 I mean, since Orlando, since the city that we are in, that Prophecy Countdown's 01:07:29.010 --> 01:07:34.390 headquarters is just outside of, is going to be the first city of light, 01:07:35.130 --> 01:07:41.570 how could I address this on television here to enlighten the people of Orlando of 01:07:41.570 --> 01:07:42.750 what is behind all this? 01:07:42.930 --> 01:07:45.970 You know, John, that hit me when I was studying this. 01:07:46.070 --> 01:07:52.070 I said, here we have Prophecy Countdown, this dynamo of energy preaching the truth, 01:07:52.650 --> 01:07:58.510 and the Lord has put it right here in juxtaposition to the city that is destined 01:07:58.510 --> 01:08:04.010 to be the prototype New Age city for the nation with a thousand points of light. 01:08:04.230 --> 01:08:06.650 Maybe God has placed us here for such a time as this, Bob. 01:08:06.670 --> 01:08:07.670 Oh, certainly has. 01:08:08.710 --> 01:08:11.770 Once upon a time, today and always, there will be a people made of magic, 01:08:11.970 --> 01:08:14.490 as if blessed with a power all their own. 01:08:14.870 --> 01:08:15.850 What does the gospel say? 01:08:16.950 --> 01:08:19.230 The power comes from Christ, you see. 01:08:19.990 --> 01:08:23.910 These are the quiet souls, these are the gentle souls, these are the souls who 01:08:23.910 --> 01:08:27.150 right the wrongs of the world every day in every corner of our community. 01:08:27.810 --> 01:08:31.190 Their secret rests not in wealth nor in the trappings of the times, but in the 01:08:31.190 --> 01:08:33.110 power they have discovered in the gift of giving. 01:08:33.510 --> 01:08:37.590 I found when I studied Buddhism, Buddhism even believes in self-sacrificing 01:08:37.590 --> 01:08:41.510 love, but it can't produce it, because there has to be a new birth. 01:08:41.710 --> 01:08:42.170 That's right. 01:08:42.950 --> 01:08:44.190 That only comes from Christ Jesus. 01:08:44.190 --> 01:08:45.630 That only comes from Christ. 01:08:45.950 --> 01:08:50.710 Their presence radiates an illumination of spirit in the form of a light creating a 01:08:50.710 --> 01:08:53.910 glow in the community that if multiplied would be felt across the country. 01:08:54.230 --> 01:09:00.650 So you see, this is a massive cell job to get the people involved in New Age. 01:09:00.850 --> 01:09:06.910 And you see, New Age, as we discussed last time, is an arm of the Roman Catholic 01:09:06.910 --> 01:09:07.330 movement. 01:09:07.510 --> 01:09:12.830 All of these things are coming together, being pulled together at this hour in 01:09:12.830 --> 01:09:13.330 Earth's history. 01:09:13.550 --> 01:09:17.850 Yet there is a false system of self-sacrificing that we find in Buddhism. 01:09:17.990 --> 01:09:23.690 Do you remember during the Vietnam War that Pulitzer Prize winning photo of the 01:09:23.690 --> 01:09:26.650 Buddhist priest that went out in the street and poured gasoline over himself 01:09:26.650 --> 01:09:27.490 and lit the torch? 01:09:28.030 --> 01:09:30.810 That is a photograph that is just... 01:09:30.810 --> 01:09:33.070 you can never get it out of your mind. 01:09:34.310 --> 01:09:40.070 That man was willing to douse himself with gasoline and be torched for the peace 01:09:40.070 --> 01:09:40.410 movement. 01:09:40.510 --> 01:09:44.430 And we find people who are in this false system of self-sacrificing. 01:09:44.550 --> 01:09:50.030 So there is something that looks very pious and very holy and maybe even very 01:09:50.030 --> 01:09:52.630 Christian and very righteous, but it is demonic. 01:09:53.490 --> 01:09:54.810 Yes, that's so true, John. 01:09:55.450 --> 01:09:59.630 And listen to the religions now with reference to Earth Day. 01:09:59.970 --> 01:10:01.970 This is from the Associated Press. 01:10:02.110 --> 01:10:06.930 They quote from Psalms 24, "...the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof." 01:10:06.930 --> 01:10:11.990 With observance of Earth Day this week and an ecumenical ecology Sunday this weekend, 01:10:11.990 --> 01:10:16.230 churches are planning strong representation at the United Nations Earth 01:10:16.230 --> 01:10:21.870 Summit in Rio de Janeiro, June 1-12, which involves governmental delegates and 01:10:21.870 --> 01:10:23.770 thousands of others from around the world. 01:10:24.230 --> 01:10:29.970 An ecumenically-backed environmental Sabbath was set June 7 to call attention 01:10:29.970 --> 01:10:32.650 to the international efforts to safeguard nature. 01:10:33.170 --> 01:10:41.630 Now, in Freedom's Ring, in our June issue of Freedom's Ring, we looked at the call 01:10:41.630 --> 01:10:52.430 by a Jesuit professor for a Sabbath to be held to promote unity around the world and 01:10:52.430 --> 01:10:57.570 that everyone was to begin this Sabbath on Friday evening. 01:10:58.710 --> 01:11:03.410 And it was to go all through the Sabbath and lead into the Sunday celebration of 01:11:03.410 --> 01:11:04.390 Christ the King. 01:11:05.170 --> 01:11:10.510 And everyone was to pray that the spirit of division would be exorcised from the 01:11:10.510 --> 01:11:10.890 world. 01:11:11.470 --> 01:11:13.270 You see how all of this ties together? 01:11:13.930 --> 01:11:18.550 And here now, this very thing is coming to pass through an environmental Sabbath 01:11:18.550 --> 01:11:24.490 being set June 7 to call attention to the international efforts to safeguard nature. 01:11:24.950 --> 01:11:27.410 Churches have drawn together about this, says the Rev. 01:11:28.050 --> 01:11:32.670 Ken Grant of the Presbyterian Church USA based in Louisville, Kentucky. 01:11:32.670 --> 01:11:33.530 We woke up. 01:11:33.970 --> 01:11:36.690 We've been sobered to learn of the harm being done to the environment. 01:11:37.310 --> 01:11:41.610 Virtually every major religious body or their leaders, Protestant, Roman Catholic, 01:11:41.950 --> 01:11:46.830 Eastern Orthodox, and Jewish, have joined the effort in the last few years with a 01:11:46.830 --> 01:11:48.810 growing crescendo of concern. 01:11:49.430 --> 01:11:51.210 The web of life is one, U.S. 01:11:51.270 --> 01:11:55.570 Roman Catholic Bishop said last November, adding that the task of sustaining human 01:11:55.570 --> 01:11:59.510 life itself cannot be separated from the care and defense of all creation. 01:11:59.510 --> 01:12:04.390 Most major Protestant denominations, the Episcopal Church, United Methodist 01:12:04.390 --> 01:12:07.690 Church, American Baptist Churches, and the United Church of Christ, 01:12:08.070 --> 01:12:11.290 among others, have adopted calls to safeguard nature. 01:12:11.810 --> 01:12:16.570 Judaism plunged strongly into the movement in an unusually inclusive meeting in 01:12:16.570 --> 01:12:21.270 mid-March of leaders of all four wings of that faith, Orthodox, Conservative, 01:12:21.770 --> 01:12:23.650 Reform, and Reconstructionists. 01:12:24.130 --> 01:12:29.190 For Jews, the environmental crisis is a religious challenge, the group said. 01:12:29.890 --> 01:12:34.390 As heirs to a tradition of stewardship that goes back to Genesis and that teaches 01:12:34.390 --> 01:12:39.530 us to be partners in the ongoing work of creation, we cannot accept the escalating 01:12:39.530 --> 01:12:40.910 destruction of our environment. 01:12:41.350 --> 01:12:44.310 It is our sacred duty as Jews to take action. 01:12:44.730 --> 01:12:50.870 So you see how this is a marshalling cause to draw all the churches, all the world 01:12:50.870 --> 01:12:55.150 religions in, all the nations in, and all the individuals to develop a 01:12:55.150 --> 01:13:01.450 spirit of collectivism and to promote the agenda for a one-world government. 01:13:02.390 --> 01:13:05.970 I want to get back here now, John, to the encyclical. 01:13:06.510 --> 01:13:08.630 Many interesting things yet here. 01:13:09.190 --> 01:13:16.190 Now this encyclical letter that Pope John Paul II wrote shows how that all the 01:13:16.190 --> 01:13:23.890 things that we are seeing recently in the environmental movement was propagated by 01:13:23.890 --> 01:13:27.810 him years before this started taking place, and it's all starting to fit 01:13:27.810 --> 01:13:30.690 together, Bob, why all these things are happening. 01:13:30.730 --> 01:13:36.090 We had no idea that all of this fit together in some type of Jesuit agenda. 01:13:36.210 --> 01:13:37.150 It's unbelievable. 01:13:38.350 --> 01:13:40.890 John, I'm reading here from page 74. 01:13:42.710 --> 01:13:49.970 It is above all a question of interdependence. 01:13:50.850 --> 01:13:58.050 Now we have whole organizations such as a trilateral commission which are dedicated 01:13:58.050 --> 01:14:05.750 to producing financial interdependence among the nations between Japan and 01:14:05.750 --> 01:14:12.570 Europe, particularly Germany, and the United States, sensed as a system 01:14:12.570 --> 01:14:16.770 determining relationships in the contemporary world. 01:14:16.770 --> 01:14:19.250 So it is above all a question of interdependence. 01:14:19.370 --> 01:14:24.490 The Pope is interested in bringing about this interdependence sensed as a system 01:14:24.490 --> 01:14:29.110 determining relationships in the contemporary world, in its economic, 01:14:29.990 --> 01:14:34.710 as we just discussed, like the trilateral commission, cultural, political, 01:14:34.950 --> 01:14:36.330 and religious elements. 01:14:36.450 --> 01:14:41.450 Notice the comprehensiveness of it, and accepted as a moral category. 01:14:42.630 --> 01:14:47.450 When interdependence becomes recognized in this way, the correlative response is a 01:14:47.450 --> 01:14:51.790 moral and social attitude, as a virtue is solidarity. 01:14:53.730 --> 01:14:58.110 We learned in the last video that solidarity is a Catholic term for labor 01:14:58.110 --> 01:14:58.530 unions. 01:14:58.530 --> 01:15:00.250 Yes, for their activity in labor unions. 01:15:00.570 --> 01:15:02.250 It's much larger, like celebration. 01:15:02.610 --> 01:15:09.150 Celebration is not just liturgical change, but as the Ecmiadzin document in the World 01:15:09.150 --> 01:15:13.510 Council of Churches points out, it is first of all for liturgical change, 01:15:13.610 --> 01:15:18.610 but second of all to bring all of human life under the control of the Church to be 01:15:18.610 --> 01:15:20.550 regulated according to the time. 01:15:21.370 --> 01:15:26.930 Now, as we look at this issue of solidarity, and celebration now we see is 01:15:26.930 --> 01:15:32.050 not only a Roman Catholic liturgical term, it is a comprehensive term that New Age 01:15:32.050 --> 01:15:39.430 uses, and that is being used now to express the bringing together of the world 01:15:39.430 --> 01:15:45.350 community in this worldview of collectivism, which was present in Nazi 01:15:45.350 --> 01:15:45.830 Germany. 01:15:46.110 --> 01:15:50.830 So the word celebration is first and foremost a Roman Catholic term, 01:15:51.150 --> 01:15:55.130 it is then a New Age term, and then it is a general conference term. 01:15:55.670 --> 01:15:56.330 Well, that too. 01:15:56.550 --> 01:15:57.370 That's right. 01:15:57.950 --> 01:15:59.690 We have accepted it from them. 01:16:01.630 --> 01:16:06.270 When interdependence becomes recognized in this way, the correlative response as a 01:16:06.270 --> 01:16:10.690 moral and social attitude, notice how the Pope is interested in developing moral 01:16:10.690 --> 01:16:14.750 attitudes and social attitudes as a virtue, is solidarity. 01:16:14.910 --> 01:16:22.150 So just as solidarity was the term for the labor union movement, Rome's labor union 01:16:22.150 --> 01:16:30.310 movement, her showcase of how to bring communism down, her showcase of a labor 01:16:30.310 --> 01:16:35.830 union based on the theological premises and teachings of Thomas Aquinas. 01:16:36.970 --> 01:16:42.630 According to Malachi Martin, this solidarity has a much larger scope to it 01:16:42.630 --> 01:16:46.190 than just solidarity, labor union in Poland. 01:16:46.490 --> 01:16:50.630 As we pointed out last time, it is the word being used for the labor unions in 01:16:50.630 --> 01:16:51.050 America. 01:16:51.370 --> 01:16:57.290 But it is not only a word being used for labor unions, it is also a word being used 01:16:57.290 --> 01:17:02.930 to describe the interdependence of the entire global community, because these 01:17:02.930 --> 01:17:08.350 labor unions are the spear points of accomplishing this along with the activity 01:17:08.350 --> 01:17:09.990 of Rome through celebration. 01:17:10.710 --> 01:17:14.350 So we are looking at a very comprehensive plan. 01:17:15.070 --> 01:17:18.930 This then is not a feeling of vague compassion or shallow distress at the 01:17:18.930 --> 01:17:21.030 misfortunes of so many people, both near and far. 01:17:21.430 --> 01:17:25.610 On the contrary, it is a firm and persevering determination to commit 01:17:25.610 --> 01:17:27.350 oneself to the common good. 01:17:27.350 --> 01:17:32.230 That is to say, to the good of all and of each individual because we are all really 01:17:32.230 --> 01:17:33.710 responsible for all. 01:17:34.230 --> 01:17:39.530 This determination is based on the solid conviction that what is hindering full 01:17:39.530 --> 01:17:44.350 development is that desire for profit and thirst, that thirst for power already 01:17:44.350 --> 01:17:44.750 mentioned. 01:17:45.110 --> 01:17:51.930 See, the Jesuit concept, according to Courtney Murray here, is that the whole 01:17:51.930 --> 01:17:57.050 American Constitution with its system of checks and balances rests upon the thirst 01:17:57.050 --> 01:17:57.770 for power. 01:17:58.110 --> 01:18:00.990 So they try to castigate the Constitution that way. 01:18:01.790 --> 01:18:09.110 In actuality, a large aspect of the checks and balances aspect of our Constitution 01:18:09.110 --> 01:18:15.790 came from Sir Isaac Newton's discovery of what happens in the atom and what happens 01:18:15.790 --> 01:18:25.130 in nature with the protons and neutrons, negative and positive fields and all that, 01:18:25.190 --> 01:18:26.570 keeping everything in balance. 01:18:27.050 --> 01:18:31.890 And our checks and balances were designed to prevent the thirst for power, 01:18:32.390 --> 01:18:38.810 to prevent the totalitarian control of one of the triad aspects of our government, 01:18:38.910 --> 01:18:45.270 executive, legislative, or judicial, to keep each one from ultimately becoming 01:18:45.270 --> 01:18:48.790 a totalitarian entity that would enslave the nation. 01:18:48.790 --> 01:18:54.130 So it was for the protection and defense against power rather than a manifestation 01:18:54.130 --> 01:18:57.630 of a system of government based on power. 01:18:58.210 --> 01:19:00.910 So that's all very interesting too. 01:19:01.130 --> 01:19:05.890 These attitudes and structures of sin are only conquered presupposing the help of 01:19:05.890 --> 01:19:10.350 divine grace by a diametrically opposed attitude, a commitment to the good of 01:19:10.350 --> 01:19:14.530 one's neighbor with the readiness in the gospel sense to lose oneself for the sake 01:19:14.530 --> 01:19:16.050 of the other instead of exploiting him. 01:19:16.050 --> 01:19:21.130 The exercise of solidarity within each society is valid when its members 01:19:21.130 --> 01:19:22.890 recognize one another as persons. 01:19:23.970 --> 01:19:29.450 Interdependence must be transformed into solidarity based upon the principle that 01:19:29.450 --> 01:19:32.310 the goods of creation are meant for all. 01:19:33.710 --> 01:19:36.210 Now this starts a very interesting concept here. 01:19:36.370 --> 01:19:37.250 This is page 76. 01:19:38.310 --> 01:19:42.590 Surmounting every type of imperialism and determination to preserve their own 01:19:42.590 --> 01:19:47.950 hegemony, the stronger... and remember Malachi Martin said one of the great goals 01:19:47.950 --> 01:19:55.330 of John Paul II was to destroy the nation system of politics and to create an 01:19:55.330 --> 01:19:58.130 international system of a one world order. 01:19:58.730 --> 01:20:01.650 Now John, look at what's happened in Europe. 01:20:04.310 --> 01:20:06.710 Look at what Gorbachev has accomplished. 01:20:07.230 --> 01:20:12.010 And Malachi Martin tells us he doesn't think in a recent interview in April of 01:20:12.010 --> 01:20:14.610 this year, he doesn't think Gorbachev is finished. 01:20:14.930 --> 01:20:15.410 No way! 01:20:16.010 --> 01:20:21.510 He says if anything Yeltsin is short term and Gorbachev may be installed as the head 01:20:21.510 --> 01:20:26.610 of this European economic community that is going to be the power base for the... I 01:20:26.610 --> 01:20:27.850 have always thought that. 01:20:27.950 --> 01:20:30.550 Don't count Gorby out by any means. 01:20:30.670 --> 01:20:35.450 Just recently Gorbachev came to Germany and the people were just shouting in 01:20:35.450 --> 01:20:39.710 ecstatic speech, Gorby, Gorby, Gorby. 01:20:41.410 --> 01:20:46.210 So, surmounting every type of imperialism and determination to preserve their own 01:20:46.210 --> 01:20:49.990 hegemony, the stronger and richer nations must have a sense of moral responsibility 01:20:49.990 --> 01:20:55.610 for the other nations so that a real international system may be established 01:20:55.610 --> 01:21:00.370 which will rest upon the foundation of the equality of all peoples and on the 01:21:00.370 --> 01:21:03.510 necessary respect for their legitimate differences. 01:21:03.510 --> 01:21:08.270 And Pope John Paul II orchestrated this five years ago. 01:21:08.430 --> 01:21:09.990 And look what happened to Russia. 01:21:10.350 --> 01:21:11.930 Look what happened to Eastern Europe. 01:21:12.290 --> 01:21:14.930 Look at what has happened to the European economic community. 01:21:15.050 --> 01:21:15.570 Let me get a book. 01:21:16.770 --> 01:21:23.610 If people had any idea that this was orchestrated by the Pope and by his 01:21:23.610 --> 01:21:28.370 soldiers, the Jesuits, five years before it took place and probably orchestrated 01:21:28.370 --> 01:21:29.090 long before that. 01:21:29.170 --> 01:21:30.470 This is just when it was published. 01:21:31.110 --> 01:21:31.630 Publicly. 01:21:31.790 --> 01:21:33.310 When they pull all the cords together. 01:21:34.530 --> 01:21:37.970 Here's Malachi Martin's book once again, The Keys of This Blood, where he discusses 01:21:37.970 --> 01:21:38.090 this. 01:21:38.150 --> 01:21:46.450 And we're wanting to come back to this later because he tells how in his 01:21:46.450 --> 01:21:52.330 interview how Gorbachev and in the book how Gorbachev has access to the inner 01:21:52.330 --> 01:21:56.630 circles of this European economic community, to the highest power circles 01:21:56.630 --> 01:21:59.790 and is exerting enormous influence. 01:21:59.890 --> 01:22:05.010 Here I have a book, Euroquake, exceptionally informative and perceptive 01:22:05.010 --> 01:22:09.630 about recent events in Europe and the shape of the emerging world economy. 01:22:10.350 --> 01:22:18.310 And this book tells of the enormous power which is going to be generated by the 01:22:18.310 --> 01:22:20.010 European economic community. 01:22:20.630 --> 01:22:24.070 John, I'm reading from page 214 in Euroquake. 01:22:25.130 --> 01:22:29.070 Finally, there are fears in the world Jewish community which may linger the 01:22:29.070 --> 01:22:29.950 longest of all. 01:22:30.430 --> 01:22:35.490 Few Jews can look with complete dispassion on an expanding Germany, even if the 01:22:35.490 --> 01:22:39.050 causes and means of the expansion are completely different today from those of 01:22:39.050 --> 01:22:40.030 half a century ago. 01:22:40.610 --> 01:22:44.790 Hitler, the Nazis, and the Holocaust are inextricably identified with Germany. 01:22:45.390 --> 01:22:50.730 The passage of a mere four decades cannot erase those memories, especially when 01:22:50.730 --> 01:22:57.810 Deutschland, Oberalles, is being sung again at rallies in Germany overall. 01:22:58.930 --> 01:23:04.670 And politicians all over Germany once more routinely invoke the idea of a glorious 01:23:04.670 --> 01:23:05.850 German fatherland. 01:23:06.450 --> 01:23:11.310 Schooled in the premise of never again, taught above all never to forget the 01:23:11.310 --> 01:23:16.290 victims of the Holocaust, even those Jews who identify little with organized Jewry 01:23:16.290 --> 01:23:21.530 know that if they wait to speak out until neo-Nazis or anti-Semites are in power 01:23:21.530 --> 01:23:23.770 again in Berlin, it will be too late. 01:23:24.430 --> 01:23:30.650 And we know that there has been a tremendous rash of anti-Semitic behavior 01:23:30.650 --> 01:23:36.830 in Germany, and Helmut Kohl is feeling so strong now, and Germany is feeling flexing 01:23:36.830 --> 01:23:42.770 its muscles so powerfully that they do not feel that they have to be accountable to 01:23:42.770 --> 01:23:46.450 the rest of the world for some of their past. 01:23:46.650 --> 01:23:51.750 And on the evening news we see the resurgence of the Nazi youth and these 01:23:51.750 --> 01:23:56.270 militant groups or gangs that are trying to revive Nazism. 01:23:56.510 --> 01:23:56.850 Yes. 01:23:57.170 --> 01:24:02.190 John, back to the encyclical here on social concern by John Paul II. 01:24:04.290 --> 01:24:07.090 We want to look a little more at this. 01:24:08.230 --> 01:24:11.550 Solidarity is undoubtedly a Christian virtue. 01:24:13.010 --> 01:24:18.110 Beyond human and natural bonds already so close and strong, there is discerned in 01:24:18.110 --> 01:24:23.330 the light of faith a new model of the unity of the human race, which must 01:24:23.330 --> 01:24:25.430 ultimately inspire our solidarity. 01:24:25.670 --> 01:24:31.530 So what John Paul II is wanting to create is a new model of unity in the human race. 01:24:31.870 --> 01:24:36.650 This supreme model of unity, which is a reflection of the intimate life of God, 01:24:37.010 --> 01:24:41.390 one God in three persons, is what we Christians mean by the word communion. 01:24:42.110 --> 01:24:46.450 This specifically Christian communion, jealously preserved, extended and enriched 01:24:46.450 --> 01:24:51.850 with the Lord's help, is the soul of the Church's vocation to be a sacrament in the 01:24:51.850 --> 01:24:53.250 sense already indicated. 01:24:53.570 --> 01:24:56.310 So in this view, the Church is a sacrament. 01:24:56.450 --> 01:24:58.790 It is the means of salvation, you see. 01:24:59.190 --> 01:25:05.690 And the Church is very central to the whole concept of solidarity, of the new 01:25:05.690 --> 01:25:13.510 model of globalism, of solidarity, a model of unity, and at the core of it is 01:25:13.510 --> 01:25:15.070 the Church, the Roman Catholic Church. 01:25:15.550 --> 01:25:16.370 Page 79. 01:25:17.230 --> 01:25:21.690 Solidarity, therefore, must play its part in the realization of this divine plan, 01:25:22.150 --> 01:25:26.030 both on the level of individuals and on the level of national and international 01:25:26.030 --> 01:25:27.070 society. 01:25:28.250 --> 01:25:34.390 So it's a divine plan, it's a new model, it's solidarity, it's communion, 01:25:34.970 --> 01:25:37.570 it's Church as sacrament at the core of it. 01:25:38.450 --> 01:25:43.990 The evil mechanisms and structures of sin, which we have spoken, can be overcome only 01:25:43.990 --> 01:25:48.730 through the exercise of human and Christian solidarity, to which the Church 01:25:48.730 --> 01:25:51.210 calls us and which she tirelessly promotes. 01:25:51.310 --> 01:25:54.750 So there you have the ecumenical movement all tied in with this thing. 01:25:55.650 --> 01:25:59.490 Only in this way can such positive energies be fully released for the benefit 01:25:59.490 --> 01:26:01.250 of development and peace. 01:26:02.170 --> 01:26:06.230 Many of the Church's canonized saints offer a wonderful witness of such 01:26:06.230 --> 01:26:06.850 solidarity. 01:26:08.470 --> 01:26:09.790 A few more quotes here. 01:26:10.450 --> 01:26:16.310 The Church's social doctrine is not a third way between liberal capitalism and 01:26:16.310 --> 01:26:22.430 Marxist collectivism, nor even a possible alternative to other solutions less 01:26:22.430 --> 01:26:24.490 radically opposed to one another. 01:26:24.630 --> 01:26:26.830 Rather, it constitutes a category of its own. 01:26:26.830 --> 01:26:32.030 Well, if you've got communism, Marxist collectivism on one side, 01:26:32.110 --> 01:26:35.890 and liberal capitalism on the other, and then this is another category, 01:26:36.050 --> 01:26:38.430 it is a third way, it is a third category. 01:26:38.750 --> 01:26:44.270 Nor is it an ideology, but rather the accurate formulation of the results of a 01:26:44.270 --> 01:26:49.070 careful reflection on the complex realities of human existence in society 01:26:49.070 --> 01:26:52.730 and in the international order in the light of faith and of the Church's 01:26:52.730 --> 01:26:53.090 tradition. 01:26:53.090 --> 01:26:58.210 Its main aim is to interpret these realities, determining their conformity 01:26:58.210 --> 01:27:02.150 with or divergence from the lines of the Gospel teaching on man and his vocation, 01:27:02.630 --> 01:27:05.830 a vocation which is at once earthly and transcendent. 01:27:06.190 --> 01:27:09.190 Its aim is thus to guide Christian behavior. 01:27:09.870 --> 01:27:13.810 It therefore belongs to the field not of ideology, but of theology, and 01:27:13.810 --> 01:27:15.590 particularly of moral theology. 01:27:16.130 --> 01:27:19.650 The teaching and spreading of her social doctrine are part of the Church's 01:27:19.650 --> 01:27:23.850 evangelizing mission, and since it is a doctrine aimed at guiding people's 01:27:23.850 --> 01:27:29.990 behavior, it consequently gives rise to a commitment to justice according to each 01:27:29.990 --> 01:27:32.810 individual's role, vocation, and circumstances. 01:27:33.350 --> 01:27:39.390 Today more than in the past, page 84, the Church's social doctrine must be open 01:27:39.390 --> 01:27:44.970 to an international outlook in line with the Second Vatican Council, the most 01:27:44.970 --> 01:27:49.210 recent encyclicals, and particularly in line with the encyclical which we are 01:27:49.210 --> 01:27:49.990 commemorating. 01:27:50.350 --> 01:27:55.010 Here I would like to indicate one of them, the option or love of preference for the 01:27:55.010 --> 01:27:55.330 poor. 01:27:55.770 --> 01:28:01.570 And that's, like I mentioned before, that is a very common Jesuit term, 01:28:01.730 --> 01:28:04.210 the preferential option for the poor. 01:28:04.410 --> 01:28:11.990 You think that applies to the great homeless drive that we have to take care 01:28:11.990 --> 01:28:12.470 of the homeless? 01:28:12.610 --> 01:28:14.190 Now this looks so pious, Bob. 01:28:14.190 --> 01:28:17.330 I mean, who would be against helping the homeless? 01:28:17.570 --> 01:28:25.110 I mean, nobody but a terrible, terrible, demonic person would not want to 01:28:25.110 --> 01:28:26.150 help the homeless. 01:28:26.470 --> 01:28:29.890 Yet, does that fit into this great Jesuit plan? 01:28:30.150 --> 01:28:32.530 Well, as we mentioned in... 01:28:32.530 --> 01:28:36.550 I don't think we got fully into it, but in the Jesuit plan for the world 01:28:36.550 --> 01:28:42.090 church to be, one of the theses that was laid down by Carl Rayner and his 01:28:42.090 --> 01:28:47.310 colleague, Heinrich Freis, was that all the churches need to work together in 01:28:47.310 --> 01:28:52.870 these programs, interchanging and intermingling and thus they develop this 01:28:52.870 --> 01:28:55.750 bond, this ecumenical bond, you see. 01:28:55.850 --> 01:29:00.630 Bob, I cannot tell you how many people have written letters and sent church 01:29:00.630 --> 01:29:05.390 bulletins to where the local Seventh-day Adventist church and the local Seventh-day 01:29:05.390 --> 01:29:08.590 Adventist church pastors working with the quote, ministerial association, 01:29:09.050 --> 01:29:13.670 and they all have these organizations to where they're helping the poor and the 01:29:13.670 --> 01:29:14.790 needy and the homeless. 01:29:15.090 --> 01:29:21.230 That sounds wonderful, but it's a Jesuit plan as a way to piously bring all the 01:29:21.230 --> 01:29:21.810 churches together. 01:29:21.950 --> 01:29:23.310 It's ecumenicalism. 01:29:23.630 --> 01:29:29.970 Yes, and that book, Unity of the Churches, by Carl Rayner, the top Jesuit scholar of 01:29:29.970 --> 01:29:33.410 this century, rests upon the BEM document. 01:29:33.410 --> 01:29:36.050 Came out, remember, one year after the BEM document. 01:29:36.290 --> 01:29:41.050 And the BEM document, in turn, rests upon the agenda of Vatican II. 01:29:42.110 --> 01:29:43.270 Page 86. 01:29:44.170 --> 01:29:47.730 It is necessary to state once more the characteristic principle of Christian 01:29:47.730 --> 01:29:48.670 social doctrine. 01:29:49.090 --> 01:29:52.770 The goods of this world are originally meant for all. 01:29:53.370 --> 01:29:54.950 Now notice how he spells this out. 01:29:55.310 --> 01:30:01.070 The right to private property is valid and necessary, but it does not nullify the 01:30:01.070 --> 01:30:02.570 value of this principle. 01:30:03.170 --> 01:30:09.810 Private property, in fact, is under a social mortgage, which means that it has 01:30:09.810 --> 01:30:14.830 an intrinsically social function based upon and justified precisely by the 01:30:14.830 --> 01:30:18.430 principle of the universal destination of goods. 01:30:18.490 --> 01:30:19.250 What does that sound like? 01:30:19.370 --> 01:30:26.410 It sounds like that the Roman Catholic Church owns everything and that they allow 01:30:26.410 --> 01:30:31.750 you to have your private rights until they conflict with their rights, and then their 01:30:31.750 --> 01:30:33.890 rights take precedence over your individual rights. 01:30:33.930 --> 01:30:35.090 Social mortgage. 01:30:35.450 --> 01:30:40.790 Your private property is under social mortgage to be called in when necessary. 01:30:40.830 --> 01:30:42.310 Whenever we want to, we will. 01:30:42.450 --> 01:30:44.870 To destinate for the poor, etc. 01:30:45.190 --> 01:30:49.770 So you see, this is a very interesting concept of socialism, isn't it? 01:30:49.950 --> 01:30:52.570 That private property is under a social mortgage. 01:30:53.170 --> 01:30:59.650 Rome knows that at the core of the liberties of this nation and the western 01:30:59.650 --> 01:31:03.750 democracies is the concept of private property. 01:31:04.350 --> 01:31:09.490 Private property is considered to be one of the most fundamental rights of the 01:31:09.490 --> 01:31:12.610 rights of free people to own private... 01:31:12.610 --> 01:31:13.970 And what did communism do? 01:31:14.170 --> 01:31:15.470 Take away... 01:31:15.470 --> 01:31:17.050 Then the people are vulnerable. 01:31:17.250 --> 01:31:17.530 Right. 01:31:17.710 --> 01:31:21.430 And they're vulnerable to social engineering and change, and we want to 01:31:21.430 --> 01:31:23.050 look at that a little later. 01:31:23.510 --> 01:31:24.330 Page 87. 01:31:25.190 --> 01:31:28.750 In this respect, I wish to mention specifically the reform of the 01:31:28.750 --> 01:31:33.990 international trade system, which is mortgage to protectionism and increasing 01:31:33.990 --> 01:31:34.870 bilateralism. 01:31:35.270 --> 01:31:38.810 The reform of the world's monetary and financial system. 01:31:39.690 --> 01:31:44.890 He's interested in reforming the world's monetary and financial system. 01:31:44.910 --> 01:31:46.250 That is happening as we speak. 01:31:46.530 --> 01:31:48.690 Today recognized as inadequate. 01:31:49.400 --> 01:31:51.270 In fact, George Hunt. 01:31:51.330 --> 01:31:52.510 Have you seen any of his videos? 01:31:52.810 --> 01:31:52.890 Yeah. 01:31:53.630 --> 01:31:59.450 About the world conservation bank that is being planned by the Rothschilds and 01:31:59.450 --> 01:32:06.490 Rockefellers and the financial elite of the world have merged their interests now 01:32:06.490 --> 01:32:13.690 with the environmental community to use the vast forests and wilderness areas of 01:32:13.690 --> 01:32:21.310 the third world peoples as a tool for the creation of a one world monetary system. 01:32:23.450 --> 01:32:25.470 Today recognized as inadequate. 01:32:25.650 --> 01:32:28.510 The question of technological exchanges and their proper use. 01:32:28.950 --> 01:32:34.230 The need for a review of the structure of the existing international organizations 01:32:34.230 --> 01:32:38.310 in the framework of an international juridical order. 01:32:39.030 --> 01:32:44.830 So get all of the international organizations settled into a framework of 01:32:44.830 --> 01:32:48.170 international law and international juridical order. 01:32:48.730 --> 01:32:52.670 The international trade system today frequently discriminates, etc. 01:32:53.050 --> 01:32:58.230 The world monetary and financial system is marked by excessive fluctuation of 01:32:58.230 --> 01:32:59.730 exchange rates and interest rates. 01:32:59.810 --> 01:33:02.130 So he's going to try to solve that. 01:33:03.330 --> 01:33:04.350 Page 88. 01:33:05.030 --> 01:33:09.410 In the opinion of many, the international organizations seem to be at a stage of 01:33:09.410 --> 01:33:13.070 their existence when their operating methods, operating costs, and 01:33:13.070 --> 01:33:16.610 effectiveness need careful review and possible correction. 01:33:17.570 --> 01:33:21.530 Obviously such a delicate process cannot be put into effect without the 01:33:21.530 --> 01:33:23.430 collaboration of all. 01:33:23.650 --> 01:33:25.250 There you've got that collectivism again. 01:33:25.410 --> 01:33:28.110 Those that are not willing to collaborate must be exterminated. 01:33:28.390 --> 01:33:33.050 This presupposes the overcoming of political rivalries and the renouncing of 01:33:33.050 --> 01:33:37.190 all desire to manipulate these organizations which exist solely for the 01:33:37.190 --> 01:33:38.210 common good. 01:33:39.050 --> 01:33:42.310 The existing institutions and organizations have worked well for the 01:33:42.310 --> 01:33:43.050 benefit of peoples. 01:33:43.190 --> 01:33:50.090 Nevertheless, humanity today is in a new and more difficult phase of its genuine 01:33:50.090 --> 01:33:50.590 development. 01:33:50.870 --> 01:33:57.010 It needs a greater degree of international ordering, greater order of the 01:33:57.010 --> 01:34:03.910 international community at the service of the society's economies and cultures of 01:34:03.910 --> 01:34:04.670 the whole world. 01:34:06.010 --> 01:34:10.950 None of what has been said can be achieved without the collaboration of all, 01:34:11.490 --> 01:34:13.730 especially the international community. 01:34:13.750 --> 01:34:14.730 This is page 90. 01:34:15.310 --> 01:34:21.570 In the framework of a solidarity which includes everyone, beginning with the most 01:34:21.570 --> 01:34:22.170 neglected. 01:34:22.990 --> 01:34:27.050 But the developing nations among themselves have the duty to practice 01:34:27.050 --> 01:34:30.830 solidarity among themselves, and with the neediest countries of the world, 01:34:31.050 --> 01:34:34.930 it is desirable, for example, that nations of the same geographical area should 01:34:34.930 --> 01:34:38.470 establish forms of cooperation, which will make them less dependent on 01:34:38.470 --> 01:34:39.530 more powerful producers. 01:34:40.450 --> 01:34:45.250 Interdependence is already a reality in many of these countries, and on and on he 01:34:45.250 --> 01:34:45.490 goes. 01:34:45.570 --> 01:34:49.330 He's just prophesying what would take place in 1991, 1992. 01:34:49.750 --> 01:34:50.390 It's so obvious. 01:34:50.510 --> 01:34:51.830 And he did that five years ago. 01:34:52.830 --> 01:34:53.250 Yes. 01:34:53.370 --> 01:34:55.450 They've been planning it a lot longer than five years, though. 01:34:55.530 --> 01:34:57.390 It's just that's when they've decided to make it public. 01:34:58.290 --> 01:35:03.770 I tell you, of all the popes that I have become acquainted with in my lifetime, 01:35:04.290 --> 01:35:08.930 none of them have the ability or been able to do what Pope John Paul II has done. 01:35:09.050 --> 01:35:13.550 It's phenomenal how the world has bowed at his feet, acknowledging him as the 01:35:13.550 --> 01:35:15.010 religious leader of the world. 01:35:15.370 --> 01:35:15.990 That's right. 01:35:16.090 --> 01:35:18.090 When he writes something, boy, everybody listens. 01:35:18.230 --> 01:35:21.750 And to realize that he, quote, prophesied about all this years ago, 01:35:21.750 --> 01:35:22.730 before it actually happened. 01:35:22.770 --> 01:35:24.410 Now we can see who was behind it all. 01:35:24.770 --> 01:35:25.290 That's right. 01:35:26.190 --> 01:35:28.890 A little more about these thousand points of light. 01:35:29.650 --> 01:35:36.290 This is from a book by Tex Mars entitled Millennium, a chapter, the order and its 01:35:36.290 --> 01:35:37.150 master plan. 01:35:38.110 --> 01:35:42.570 Step by step and stage by stage, humanity is achieving oneness. 01:35:43.270 --> 01:35:47.970 Each day that passes brings some new insight or event which shows conclusively 01:35:47.970 --> 01:35:49.850 that the plan is working out. 01:35:50.290 --> 01:35:55.270 Today, the plan unfolds at an unprecedented rate, bringing all gradually 01:35:55.270 --> 01:35:56.350 to the envisioned goal. 01:35:57.370 --> 01:35:57.670 End quote. 01:35:57.770 --> 01:36:04.410 These were said by Benjamin Cream to be the words of the master, New Age leader, 01:36:05.090 --> 01:36:09.610 the Lord Maitreya, claimed to be the coming Christ for the New Age. 01:36:10.150 --> 01:36:13.610 According to Cream, a fundamental change engulfs the world. 01:36:15.270 --> 01:36:20.830 And in this chapter he discusses a thousand points of light, which I thought 01:36:20.830 --> 01:36:25.950 would be interesting for you, John, since you're here at this community. 01:36:26.110 --> 01:36:31.110 In Orlando, the very first one of these cities of a thousand points of light, 01:36:31.170 --> 01:36:32.490 I'm very interested in that. 01:36:32.990 --> 01:36:37.350 Possibly the best description, this is page 72 of the book, possibly the 01:36:37.350 --> 01:36:41.830 best description of the plan in terms of its call for a one world government is 01:36:41.830 --> 01:36:45.070 found in a book generally unavailable to the public through bookstores, 01:36:45.170 --> 01:36:49.490 but distributed widely among members of the order entitled Solar Man. 01:36:50.090 --> 01:36:55.070 Authored by Thomas P. Ehrenzeller, this impassioned treatise predicts the 01:36:55.070 --> 01:36:59.550 coming of solar man, a sort of super being who will preside over a world of 01:36:59.550 --> 01:37:01.370 unparalleled prosperity and peace. 01:37:02.050 --> 01:37:06.390 Ehrenzeller carefully describes how the world is to be grouped together in regions 01:37:06.390 --> 01:37:10.370 with the European community being the cornerstone of the world government. 01:37:10.490 --> 01:37:13.850 That's exactly what Malachi Martin says in Keys of This Blood. 01:37:16.510 --> 01:37:20.350 Ehrenzeller, who at the time of authoring Solar Man, sat on the National Board of 01:37:20.350 --> 01:37:23.650 Directors of the World Federalist Association, had his book published under 01:37:23.650 --> 01:37:27.770 the auspices of a publishing house that used the name Apollo Books and is 01:37:27.770 --> 01:37:30.390 supposedly headquartered in a small town in Minnesota. 01:37:31.190 --> 01:37:36.110 Apollo was the Greek sun god, great sun god of the Greeks, and since the order 01:37:36.110 --> 01:37:41.090 believes in the concept of a thousand points of light, a network of light which 01:37:41.090 --> 01:37:47.470 emanates from the sun god, Lucifer, it is obvious why the name Apollo is used. 01:37:48.330 --> 01:37:52.010 In his revealing book, Ehrenzeller quotes Thomas Paine, who once announced, 01:37:52.130 --> 01:37:54.530 We have it in our power to begin the world over again. 01:37:54.850 --> 01:37:59.110 But we need to begin anew, says Ehrenzeller, is a new world system. 01:37:59.390 --> 01:38:00.670 Sounds like the Pope, doesn't it? 01:38:00.770 --> 01:38:01.130 Exactly. 01:38:01.270 --> 01:38:02.410 Sounds like our president. 01:38:03.290 --> 01:38:07.570 If the leaders in power cannot see the new age coming, if they cannot help progress, 01:38:07.650 --> 01:38:11.430 but rather impede it, then the peoples of the world will seek out new leaders. 01:38:13.610 --> 01:38:20.330 Dropping over on page 73, Here again we see the belief of the order in a false god 01:38:20.330 --> 01:38:23.910 who assumes the name of the sun deity, but in actuality is none other than 01:38:23.910 --> 01:38:24.290 Lucifer. 01:38:24.410 --> 01:38:28.550 He is the pretender who masquerades as the light of this world, and the many members 01:38:28.550 --> 01:38:33.230 of the order networking around the world are the fabled a thousand points of light, 01:38:33.330 --> 01:38:35.570 as Freemasonry loves to refer to them. 01:38:35.970 --> 01:38:39.630 How revealing, then, the statement made again and again by President George Bush, 01:38:40.110 --> 01:38:45.070 a high level mason and a member of other secret globalist societies, that his goal 01:38:45.070 --> 01:38:51.070 as chief executive is to encourage and promote a thousand points of light across 01:38:51.070 --> 01:38:51.770 America. 01:38:52.250 --> 01:38:53.050 Page 74. 01:38:53.330 --> 01:38:58.250 As one devotee of the new world to come has written, quote, by the year 2000 the 01:38:58.250 --> 01:39:00.610 White House will be turned into a lighthouse. 01:39:01.450 --> 01:39:04.270 Rays of light will emanate from Washington, end quote. 01:39:04.990 --> 01:39:06.870 This gentleman is only partly right. 01:39:07.590 --> 01:39:10.830 The rays may emanate from Washington, but it is not Washington that is their 01:39:10.830 --> 01:39:11.710 primary source. 01:39:11.850 --> 01:39:16.850 The primary source is Lucifer, whom occultists universally venerate as 01:39:16.850 --> 01:39:18.010 the father of light. 01:39:18.750 --> 01:39:23.070 No wonder the apostle Paul warned that Satan often comes to us disguised as an 01:39:23.070 --> 01:39:26.830 angel of light and his demon spirits as ministers of righteousness. 01:39:27.170 --> 01:39:30.850 Then he has on page 75 the six goals of the order. 01:39:31.110 --> 01:39:34.610 The plan envisions the attainment of six specific goals by the order. 01:39:35.090 --> 01:39:38.370 These goals involve both spiritual and material objectives. 01:39:38.890 --> 01:39:40.690 Listed below are the six goals. 01:39:41.310 --> 01:39:46.190 Goal one, the establishment of a new international economic order, identical to 01:39:46.190 --> 01:39:48.430 what we saw... We know that that's going to happen in the process of happening. 01:39:49.250 --> 01:39:53.330 Unified and under the direct command of the unelected elite on the highest level 01:39:53.330 --> 01:39:54.530 board of the order. 01:39:54.970 --> 01:39:59.730 Goal two, the establishment of what will appear to be a democratic one world 01:39:59.730 --> 01:40:03.550 government, which will actually be controlled behind the scenes by the order. 01:40:04.150 --> 01:40:09.410 Goal three, the conquest and subjugation by economic, financial and spiritual means 01:40:09.410 --> 01:40:12.970 of the two superpowers, United States of America and Russia. 01:40:13.130 --> 01:40:16.650 Look what has already happened to Russia, also known as the Union of Soviet 01:40:16.650 --> 01:40:22.710 Socialist Republics, now already diversified and changed. 01:40:23.090 --> 01:40:27.050 Goal four, the ascension of the coming United States of Europe as the dominant 01:40:27.050 --> 01:40:29.130 nation in a confederated one world government. 01:40:29.250 --> 01:40:36.170 Notice how this parallels with Malachi Martin and with John Paul II's plan. 01:40:36.470 --> 01:40:37.190 All these points. 01:40:37.630 --> 01:40:42.010 The ushering in of a supreme world leader to preside over this new unified one world 01:40:42.010 --> 01:40:42.250 government. 01:40:42.430 --> 01:40:44.050 Guess who that's going to be? 01:40:45.150 --> 01:40:48.010 John Paul II and ultimately Lucifer, of course. 01:40:48.030 --> 01:40:49.150 Lucifer, according to great controversy. 01:40:49.370 --> 01:40:49.650 Absolutely. 01:40:50.090 --> 01:40:54.790 Goal six, the establishment of a one world religion which will coordinate all the 01:40:54.790 --> 01:40:58.830 world's religions, cults, faith groups and spiritual beliefs under the guidance of a 01:40:58.830 --> 01:41:04.950 supreme pontiff, the spiritual equivalent of the supreme world leader. 01:41:06.830 --> 01:41:12.390 Now I'd like to turn to an interview that just took place in April of this year with 01:41:12.390 --> 01:41:13.230 Malachi Martin. 01:41:14.470 --> 01:41:20.230 And this is from the Gospel Truth, the publication of Southwest Radio Church. 01:41:22.330 --> 01:41:25.370 I'll read a few paragraphs here. 01:41:26.610 --> 01:41:55.090 He's telling about Dr. Martin and discussing about Gorbachev here. 01:42:04.030 --> 01:42:04.830 Now, 01:42:14.210 --> 01:42:20.190 it's interesting, John, that it has come out now that in some of the elections in 01:42:20.190 --> 01:42:26.550 Germany as much as 90% of the votes, the majority of the votes that catapulted 01:42:26.550 --> 01:42:28.650 him into office was Catholic votes. 01:42:28.910 --> 01:42:29.210 Roman Catholic. 01:42:29.790 --> 01:42:36.550 And see, the Pope swung his support behind Hitler at the critical moment and it 01:42:36.550 --> 01:42:39.350 catapulted him into power and he knows he can do the same thing again. 01:42:40.370 --> 01:42:46.330 In an editorial dated March 9, 1992 by Gorbachev, Dateline Moscow, 01:42:46.930 --> 01:42:50.430 appearing in the Buffalo News, we quote, and here's Gorbachev writing, 01:42:50.750 --> 01:42:51.010 quote, 01:42:55.750 --> 01:42:58.190 And I think ours will be an ongoing dialogue. 01:42:58.510 --> 01:43:01.610 The sense of mutual affection and understanding which resulted from our 01:43:01.610 --> 01:43:04.090 meeting is to be found in each of our letters. 01:43:04.650 --> 01:43:08.970 I cannot help but say that we share a desire to move forward and complete what 01:43:08.970 --> 01:43:10.630 we began together. 01:43:11.650 --> 01:43:15.910 Personally, I would be glad to take any opportunity to continue working with the 01:43:15.910 --> 01:43:20.350 Pope and I am certain that this desire is mutual and will prove lasting. 01:43:21.230 --> 01:43:28.070 You see, it was essential that Gorbachev fade from the forefront for a while so 01:43:28.070 --> 01:43:30.490 that when he comes back he can come back with a roar. 01:43:30.770 --> 01:43:31.930 As an international figure. 01:43:31.990 --> 01:43:34.470 That's right, as an international figure, not as the president of the USSR. 01:43:35.010 --> 01:43:40.170 And with the backing of one billion Catholics, that's one-sixth of the world's 01:43:40.170 --> 01:43:40.770 population. 01:43:42.450 --> 01:43:46.950 It is very difficult to describe the relationship which took place and shaped 01:43:46.950 --> 01:43:51.710 between the Pope and myself because the intuitive personal element is always of 01:43:51.710 --> 01:43:53.330 great importance in such relationships. 01:43:53.610 --> 01:43:57.710 Simply put, when I was with him, I realized that the Pope had also played a 01:43:57.710 --> 01:44:01.390 role in what we came to call the new political thinking. 01:44:01.590 --> 01:44:01.930 Absolutely. 01:44:02.230 --> 01:44:05.810 I am prepared to acknowledge that his speeches contain many ideas that were in 01:44:05.810 --> 01:44:06.670 harmony with ours. 01:44:06.750 --> 01:44:10.790 The closeness between us, of which I have just spoken, was not only personal but 01:44:10.790 --> 01:44:11.310 intellectual. 01:44:11.910 --> 01:44:15.570 What I have always held in high esteem about the Pope's thinking and ideas is 01:44:15.570 --> 01:44:20.470 their spiritual content, their striving to foster the development of a new world 01:44:20.470 --> 01:44:21.310 civilization. 01:44:22.270 --> 01:44:26.530 Now it can be said that everything which took place in Eastern Europe in recent 01:44:26.530 --> 01:44:30.430 years would have been impossible without the Pope's efforts. 01:44:30.570 --> 01:44:31.670 This is Gorbachev speaking. 01:44:31.750 --> 01:44:31.770 Him! 01:44:31.970 --> 01:44:37.350 I mean, he's admitting that the crumbling of the Soviet Union was attributed to the 01:44:37.350 --> 01:44:37.550 Pope. 01:44:38.670 --> 01:44:44.410 You know, it's so interesting that Malachi Martin in Keys of this Blood sees the 01:44:44.410 --> 01:44:50.210 shifting of Russian thinking into what he calls Gramsciism. 01:44:50.290 --> 01:44:51.610 Did we discuss that in Jesuit Agenda 2? 01:44:51.610 --> 01:44:52.530 I don't remember it, no. 01:44:52.750 --> 01:44:54.270 Well, we'll look at it a little today. 01:44:55.850 --> 01:45:03.490 Gramsciism, which is a certain type of communist thinking that saw as its primary 01:45:03.490 --> 01:45:09.110 objective the neutralization of the potent Christianity that existed and the 01:45:09.110 --> 01:45:15.390 secularizing of Christianity to extend socialist concepts over the world. 01:45:16.010 --> 01:45:22.770 And how Roman Catholicism took this over from Gorbachev and Brezhnev and it 01:45:22.770 --> 01:45:26.190 embraced it and imposed it on the Western world. 01:45:27.210 --> 01:45:32.410 The Jesuits were foremost in this work, so much so that in his book The Jesuits, 01:45:33.270 --> 01:45:36.510 which I have here by Malachi Martin. 01:45:36.810 --> 01:45:41.690 The thing that's so amazing is that this makes Revelation 13 come together for our 01:45:41.690 --> 01:45:42.210 Adventist people. 01:45:42.430 --> 01:45:48.010 Even if a situation taking place in our church were not true, we could see 01:45:48.010 --> 01:45:53.470 prophecy being fulfilled just from the world leaders now encircling the Pope and 01:45:53.470 --> 01:45:54.370 the Roman Papacy. 01:45:54.610 --> 01:45:59.830 How that it's all fitting together perfectly for the mark of the beast. 01:46:00.330 --> 01:46:03.590 Well, what's interesting, John, is you remember the message of Fatima, 01:46:03.830 --> 01:46:07.670 that if the world was dedicated to Mary, if enough penances were said and all this, 01:46:07.930 --> 01:46:09.650 the conversion of Russia would take place. 01:46:09.930 --> 01:46:12.910 Then look at the developments that took place in the 1980s. 01:46:13.190 --> 01:46:14.850 And the crumbling of the Iron Curtain. 01:46:15.370 --> 01:46:21.150 And the complete metamorphosis of Eastern Europe and the USSR. 01:46:22.130 --> 01:46:28.770 And now all of this being merged into the European economic community with possibly 01:46:28.770 --> 01:46:32.990 Gorbachev re-emerging now as an international leader of the fundamental 01:46:32.990 --> 01:46:36.490 building block for the Pope's New World Order. 01:46:36.730 --> 01:46:40.650 And the close and intimate personal relationship between Gorbachev and the 01:46:40.650 --> 01:46:44.750 Pope as well as their relationship in political thinking. 01:46:45.130 --> 01:46:51.810 And their absolute consensus that Europe forms the building block for this New 01:46:51.810 --> 01:46:52.510 World Order. 01:46:52.850 --> 01:46:55.410 The thinking is just merging precisely. 01:46:56.490 --> 01:46:58.810 And the whole world wandered after the beast. 01:46:58.810 --> 01:46:59.610 Yes. 01:47:01.390 --> 01:47:05.290 Now it can be said that everything, everything which took place in Eastern 01:47:05.290 --> 01:47:08.950 Europe in recent years would have been impossible without the Pope's efforts. 01:47:09.490 --> 01:47:13.210 Now this tells us how Gorbachev and the Pope were working to bring about the very 01:47:13.210 --> 01:47:14.090 thing that happened. 01:47:14.370 --> 01:47:18.090 Well, I can't help but believe that the storm that is taking place as I'm looking 01:47:18.090 --> 01:47:22.370 out the windows of the taping studio right now and I see the lightning and we hear 01:47:22.370 --> 01:47:25.170 the thunder and the rain coming down in Taurus. 01:47:25.370 --> 01:47:29.710 I can't help but think that that is a fitting example of the storm that's now 01:47:29.710 --> 01:47:32.870 going on in our nation, in our world and in our church. 01:47:32.950 --> 01:47:33.870 What did Ellen White say? 01:47:33.970 --> 01:47:36.590 A storm is coming relentless in its fury. 01:47:36.990 --> 01:47:39.330 Once it hits John there will be no let up. 01:47:39.670 --> 01:47:40.230 Did you hear that? 01:47:40.250 --> 01:47:40.850 Yeah, I heard it. 01:47:41.270 --> 01:47:43.150 Once it comes there will be no let up. 01:47:43.310 --> 01:47:46.490 And it will come like sudden terror as an overwhelming surprise. 01:47:47.130 --> 01:47:50.670 And we must treasure the hours of peace that we have to prepare for this. 01:47:50.850 --> 01:47:51.350 Amen, amen. 01:47:51.630 --> 01:47:53.110 Get ready, get ready, get ready. 01:47:54.210 --> 01:47:58.010 The events in Eastern Europe in recent years would have been impossible without 01:47:58.010 --> 01:48:03.170 the Pope's efforts and the enormous role, enormous role, including the political 01:48:03.170 --> 01:48:06.190 role which he played in the world arena. 01:48:06.490 --> 01:48:08.930 So now we see, he says, now it can be told. 01:48:09.430 --> 01:48:13.650 Gorbachev tells us that he and the Pope were working to bring about the very thing 01:48:13.650 --> 01:48:15.650 to happen in Eastern Europe which happened. 01:48:15.950 --> 01:48:19.790 Now that is a little, was hard for Western minds to recognize at first. 01:48:19.890 --> 01:48:24.130 Why would Gorbachev want to preside over the dissolution of his own Communist 01:48:24.130 --> 01:48:24.590 Party? 01:48:25.110 --> 01:48:27.870 But now it's all coming out that there was a bigger plan. 01:48:28.270 --> 01:48:33.690 And the bigger plan is to reconstruct all of this on an international scene and 01:48:33.690 --> 01:48:38.750 possibly bring him in now to head that political coalition. 01:48:38.930 --> 01:48:39.730 Mind-boggling. 01:48:40.090 --> 01:48:42.050 Just absolutely mind-boggling, Bob. 01:48:42.510 --> 01:48:46.410 One of Perestroika's especially important contributions in this regard was the 01:48:46.410 --> 01:48:48.050 passing of a law on freedom of religion. 01:48:48.050 --> 01:48:52.750 I am certain that the actions undertaken by Pope John Paul II are of immense 01:48:52.750 --> 01:48:53.350 significance. 01:48:53.810 --> 01:48:55.850 I have already spoken of his high spirituality. 01:48:56.070 --> 01:48:58.010 I was also struck by his human qualities. 01:48:58.530 --> 01:49:00.690 In a word, he is a great man. 01:49:01.130 --> 01:49:05.210 I would not wish to exaggerate, but it is my impression that the Pope is a 01:49:05.210 --> 01:49:09.270 great source of energy and he elicits a deep sense of confidence. 01:49:09.770 --> 01:49:15.850 Pope John Paul II will play an enormous political role now that profound changes 01:49:15.850 --> 01:49:18.610 have occurred in European history. 01:49:19.210 --> 01:49:20.450 That's Gorbachev speaking. 01:49:21.990 --> 01:49:25.730 Now then, what does Pope John Paul II think of Mr. Gorbachev? 01:49:25.970 --> 01:49:30.410 Quote, It's true, there was something instinctive between us, as if we had 01:49:30.410 --> 01:49:31.530 already known each other. 01:49:31.970 --> 01:49:33.670 And I know why that was. 01:49:33.790 --> 01:49:36.330 Our meeting had been prepared by providence. 01:49:36.830 --> 01:49:41.510 He does not profess to be a believer, but with me I recall he spoke of the great 01:49:41.510 --> 01:49:44.270 importance of prayer and of the inner side of man's life. 01:49:44.710 --> 01:49:48.030 I truly believe that our meeting was prepared by providence. 01:49:48.590 --> 01:49:52.030 I believe he is a man committed to principles and very rich in spiritual 01:49:52.030 --> 01:49:53.990 terms, a charismatic man. 01:49:54.610 --> 01:49:58.290 There are those who are convinced that economic difficulties were the source of 01:49:58.290 --> 01:50:00.630 the crisis of the communist systems of Eastern Europe. 01:50:01.070 --> 01:50:03.850 And of course this element was present and had a certain effect. 01:50:04.150 --> 01:50:06.510 But we must not forget something very important. 01:50:07.030 --> 01:50:11.390 There was not simply a crisis of communism, but there was also perestroika. 01:50:12.010 --> 01:50:15.570 And perestroika means, among other things, conversion. 01:50:16.450 --> 01:50:19.730 That is a Russian term, and it means conversion. 01:50:20.050 --> 01:50:20.330 Conversion. 01:50:20.630 --> 01:50:23.410 And you see, what did Mary say in the... 01:50:23.410 --> 01:50:25.810 In the whole world, if Russia could be converted. 01:50:25.990 --> 01:50:29.910 Yeah, the conversion predicted, Fatima predicted the conversion of Russia, 01:50:30.030 --> 01:50:35.010 and perestroika, the Pope says, is a word that means conversion. 01:50:35.670 --> 01:50:42.170 Now, Malachi Martin in an interview says, The EEC, European Economic Community, 01:50:42.610 --> 01:50:43.790 is the power of the future. 01:50:44.370 --> 01:50:47.830 Creating a market of 17 nations with 470 million people. 01:50:48.130 --> 01:50:50.370 And I'm so glad, John, you've jumped in there. 01:50:50.530 --> 01:50:54.710 You're not only here in Orlando to combat the city of light, but you've jumped in on 01:50:54.710 --> 01:50:56.550 the superstation in Europe. 01:50:56.970 --> 01:50:59.050 The Lord has been preparing things, hasn't he? 01:50:59.770 --> 01:51:03.890 It will soon be expanded to the nations of Eastern Europe and the constituent members 01:51:03.890 --> 01:51:05.530 of what used to be the Soviet Union. 01:51:06.550 --> 01:51:09.870 I'm dropping down now to the next page. 01:51:10.050 --> 01:51:16.730 You've got my... What would happen if I wrestled with this and dealt with this on 01:51:16.730 --> 01:51:18.090 the European superchannel? 01:51:18.210 --> 01:51:21.270 Can you imagine the impact this would have? 01:51:21.470 --> 01:51:23.050 Well, John, let me tell you this. 01:51:23.430 --> 01:51:28.690 We have had people sending us editorials from Northern European nations. 01:51:29.750 --> 01:51:34.410 And in the editorials, they tell how fearful they are that this European 01:51:34.410 --> 01:51:40.750 economic community is a ploy of the papacy to reassert its control over Europe like 01:51:40.750 --> 01:51:41.970 it did centuries ago. 01:51:42.510 --> 01:51:45.190 And, of course, let me just grab a book here, John. 01:51:45.570 --> 01:51:47.130 Well, you've got me thinking, Bob. 01:51:47.330 --> 01:51:50.750 Maybe, you know, I want to preach the three angels' message. 01:51:50.890 --> 01:51:55.650 And that's the reason that we have appealed to our people for Props to 01:51:55.650 --> 01:52:00.190 Countdown to be on the 40 million English-speaking homes of Europe on the 01:52:00.190 --> 01:52:01.990 European superchannel out of London, England. 01:52:02.450 --> 01:52:06.570 But maybe, under God's providence, there is a time when I need to expose 01:52:06.570 --> 01:52:07.270 this... 01:52:07.270 --> 01:52:09.910 The rapid, stealthy progress of the papal power. 01:52:09.930 --> 01:52:12.890 ...of the papal power to the people in Europe. 01:52:13.350 --> 01:52:14.910 I'm open, Bob, I'll tell you. 01:52:15.090 --> 01:52:16.130 I want to do what... 01:52:16.130 --> 01:52:21.850 I want to fulfill the place that God has for us on the European superchannel and 01:52:21.850 --> 01:52:22.690 around the world. 01:52:22.990 --> 01:52:27.050 This is a book, John, by Penny Larneau, who is a liberal Roman Catholic. 01:52:27.910 --> 01:52:30.870 Struggle for World Catholicism, People of God, page 11. 01:52:31.490 --> 01:52:35.530 The Restoration, as John Paul's supporters call the return to Roman law and order, 01:52:36.010 --> 01:52:40.570 parallels a renewed assertiveness by the largely reactionary Curia, the Church's 01:52:40.570 --> 01:52:42.230 Roman court and central government. 01:52:42.950 --> 01:52:47.010 Like most bureaucracies, the Curia aims to maintain its power, which was weakened by 01:52:47.010 --> 01:52:50.470 the papacies of John XXIII and Paul VI. 01:52:50.850 --> 01:52:53.390 John Paul's Vatican longs for the past. 01:52:53.390 --> 01:52:58.390 The Pope wishes to restore an authoritarian church model based on that 01:52:58.390 --> 01:53:03.370 of the Middle Ages, when the state and its institutions were uniformly Catholic and 01:53:03.370 --> 01:53:05.620 there was a patriarchal ordering of the sexes. 01:53:06.630 --> 01:53:11.850 As the Pope told a Polish audience in 1979, to deserve the name at all, 01:53:11.950 --> 01:53:16.150 a civilization must be a Christian, read Catholic, civilization. 01:53:18.690 --> 01:53:22.410 Well, Bob, I'm looking at the trees bending out the window and hearing these 01:53:22.410 --> 01:53:25.410 loud claps of thunder, and we're just going to keep on taping in the midst of 01:53:25.410 --> 01:53:29.270 this storm, and we've got to stand firm in the midst of the storm. 01:53:29.390 --> 01:53:31.590 I think there's great application there. 01:53:31.910 --> 01:53:31.910 Right. 01:53:32.670 --> 01:53:33.670 Page 17. 01:53:33.890 --> 01:53:38.150 The belief in the perfect society of a political religious Christendom stems from 01:53:38.150 --> 01:53:41.770 the Middle Ages when the Church was the guardian of civil and religious 01:53:41.770 --> 01:53:42.410 institutions. 01:53:42.890 --> 01:53:47.670 So, John Paul II, in all of this that we've been discussing, has as his ultimate 01:53:47.670 --> 01:53:53.330 goal to bring the world back to what it was like before Martin Luther in Europe? 01:53:54.130 --> 01:53:54.130 Absolutely. 01:53:54.290 --> 01:53:57.990 They want to go back before the Protestant Reformation. 01:53:58.150 --> 01:54:02.690 They want the world to go back before Protestantism went rampant through the 01:54:02.690 --> 01:54:02.990 world. 01:54:03.270 --> 01:54:05.630 Okay, back here to the interview, John. 01:54:06.570 --> 01:54:08.250 Here's Malachi Martin speaking. 01:54:09.410 --> 01:54:15.390 For 73 years, the Soviet Union was ruled by the Communist Party, composed of 20 01:54:15.390 --> 01:54:20.530 million members of paymasters, spymasters, executioners, jailers, 01:54:20.750 --> 01:54:23.490 persecutors, spies, and a huge bureaucracy. 01:54:23.990 --> 01:54:28.490 But with the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the loss of power by the 01:54:28.490 --> 01:54:32.630 Communists, what has happened to this gigantic political conspiracy, 01:54:33.150 --> 01:54:37.870 the most ingenious political machine in history for the control of human beings? 01:54:38.330 --> 01:54:42.990 There were no trials, no executions, no placing of blame, no justice. 01:54:43.270 --> 01:54:44.350 Did it just blow away? 01:54:44.870 --> 01:54:45.190 No. 01:54:45.980 --> 01:54:48.110 It is still all intact. 01:54:48.390 --> 01:54:51.490 20 million executioners, paymasters, spies. 01:54:52.970 --> 01:54:57.450 There were 10 cities in the former Soviet Union that were never marked on a map. 01:54:58.150 --> 01:55:01.490 The inhabitants of those cities could not leave without special permission, 01:55:01.790 --> 01:55:04.550 and no one could enter without special permission. 01:55:05.190 --> 01:55:09.530 The reason was that these 10 cities were engaged in nuclear production and still 01:55:09.530 --> 01:55:10.050 are. 01:55:10.490 --> 01:55:12.430 He's talking in April of 1992. 01:55:13.380 --> 01:55:17.050 There are vague news reports about them, but where are they? 01:55:17.830 --> 01:55:22.210 Russia still has a powerful army with its nuclear missiles still pointed at the U.S. 01:55:22.210 --> 01:55:26.950 The Russian Navy is equipped with titanium hull submarines, and the United States 01:55:26.950 --> 01:55:28.210 still does not have one. 01:55:28.510 --> 01:55:32.090 This hull provides the deepest penetration for submarine warfare. 01:55:32.830 --> 01:55:40.590 This dangerous thing, these 20 million strong, most ingenious political machine 01:55:40.590 --> 01:55:44.690 in history for the control of human beings, this dangerous thing with deadly 01:55:44.690 --> 01:55:50.370 weapons still composed of spies, paymasters, conspirators, is still alive, 01:55:51.470 --> 01:55:55.290 adapting to change like a chameleon, but waiting for its chance. 01:55:55.410 --> 01:55:57.010 Just like the Roman papacy. 01:55:58.190 --> 01:56:03.190 And John, when you know what Malachi Martin has said in The Keys of This Blood 01:56:03.190 --> 01:56:11.610 here about Gramsciism and how this whole system of the KGB was to be used to 01:56:11.610 --> 01:56:18.770 promote communism in a worldwide scenario, working through politics, working through 01:56:18.770 --> 01:56:24.870 existing institutions, subtly, quietly, in a completely different type of 01:56:24.870 --> 01:56:30.930 manner than Stalin did, and that it was using this kind of machinery to accomplish 01:56:30.930 --> 01:56:31.370 that. 01:56:31.850 --> 01:56:35.090 This will be a tool for the new world order par excellence. 01:56:36.190 --> 01:56:40.790 Mr. Gorbachev, realizing all this, Gorbachev knows all this is still in 01:56:40.790 --> 01:56:46.830 place, and he knows that the KGB is like a chameleon now, just waiting for its 01:56:46.830 --> 01:56:47.250 chance. 01:56:47.610 --> 01:56:49.110 He wisely withdrew. 01:56:49.310 --> 01:56:53.770 But the prospects for Mr. Gorbachev in the new world order are very bright. 01:56:54.270 --> 01:56:58.990 Once Russia and the members of the Commonwealth join the EEC, there will be 01:56:58.990 --> 01:57:02.970 the need for a new leader, a moderate, popular with both sides. 01:57:02.970 --> 01:57:06.690 The headquarters for the new world order will not be Strasbourg or Brussels, 01:57:06.850 --> 01:57:11.830 but a new thing called the CSCE, the Council for Security Cooperation of 01:57:11.830 --> 01:57:14.130 Europe, a 35-member organization. 01:57:14.390 --> 01:57:18.990 It will need a new, dynamic head, acceptable to both sides, and probably Mr. 01:57:19.130 --> 01:57:22.810 Gorbachev will be the head, and thus enter as the leader of the new world order, 01:57:22.870 --> 01:57:25.070 unless there is an accident of history. 01:57:25.710 --> 01:57:30.890 You can be assured that Gorbachev is going to come back much more powerful on a 01:57:30.890 --> 01:57:35.650 global scale, and he is going to be one of the foremost leaders in the, quote, 01:57:35.890 --> 01:57:39.510 new world order that is trying to be organized. 01:57:40.090 --> 01:57:42.850 Gene Kirkpatrick, former U.S. 01:57:42.990 --> 01:57:47.130 ambassador to the U.N., recently stated in an editorial that there was an emerging 01:57:47.130 --> 01:57:51.090 new world order, but it was rising up out of Europe, not Washington, D.C. 01:57:51.690 --> 01:57:57.070 Malachi Martin comments, both Mr. Bush and Mr. James Baker have said that the United 01:57:57.070 --> 01:58:01.170 States and Europe would establish a new market structure extending from the 01:58:01.170 --> 01:58:06.350 beaches of California, across Europe and Asia, to Vladivostok on the China Sea. 01:58:06.890 --> 01:58:12.770 Needed is a new system of financial exchange, new banking laws, forced upon 01:58:12.770 --> 01:58:16.010 every nation, including ours, for the new world order, which is just around the 01:58:16.010 --> 01:58:16.270 corner. 01:58:16.870 --> 01:58:20.210 Even though the present Pope may not like it, he will have to go through with it. 01:58:20.590 --> 01:58:24.290 Mr. Gorbachev seems to be the prime candidate acceptable to both East and 01:58:24.290 --> 01:58:24.550 West. 01:58:24.910 --> 01:58:28.750 The relationship of the Pope and Gorbachev is coming along very slowly. 01:58:29.990 --> 01:58:31.770 A few more items here, John. 01:58:34.070 --> 01:58:37.450 Malachi Martin is answering a question here. 01:58:37.470 --> 01:58:38.130 Here's the question. 01:58:38.550 --> 01:58:42.290 In as much as the new world order is evidently upon us and it is coming out of 01:58:42.290 --> 01:58:45.650 Europe, do you interpret it to be the revived Roman Empire? 01:58:45.890 --> 01:58:46.530 Malachi Martin. 01:58:47.150 --> 01:58:48.370 No, I do not. 01:58:48.530 --> 01:58:52.170 It will include all the lands occupied by the ancient Romans, but the religion will 01:58:52.170 --> 01:58:56.790 not be Christianity or Catholicism, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, or any religion 01:58:56.790 --> 01:58:57.550 known today. 01:58:58.030 --> 01:59:00.590 It already has its own religion, if we want to call it that. 01:59:00.650 --> 01:59:01.850 It is called the New Age. 01:59:01.930 --> 01:59:06.230 The New Age outlook is based on this, that all men and all women are brothers 01:59:06.230 --> 01:59:11.510 and sisters and we must turn as a whole race, regardless of color or religion, 01:59:11.570 --> 01:59:15.790 to join together in building a new world in which the rights of man will be 01:59:15.790 --> 01:59:20.250 preserved and in which prosperity will be fostered and in which war will be declared 01:59:20.250 --> 01:59:25.110 impossible and the environment will be almost deified and sanctified and man will 01:59:25.110 --> 01:59:26.370 build his own earthly home. 01:59:26.510 --> 01:59:30.790 The New Age movement is at this moment influencing our present policies. 01:59:31.050 --> 01:59:34.150 Have you noticed that in times past they used to be a little fearful of using the 01:59:34.150 --> 01:59:37.530 term New Age or being affiliated or associated with New Age in any way, 01:59:37.590 --> 01:59:38.990 but now they are just bold about it. 01:59:39.010 --> 01:59:40.110 They just come right out. 01:59:40.110 --> 01:59:40.810 They are more open. 01:59:40.830 --> 01:59:44.390 Oh, they are just getting real open about being part of the New Age. 01:59:44.570 --> 01:59:46.170 They just don't make any bones about it anymore. 01:59:46.470 --> 01:59:46.730 That's right. 01:59:47.390 --> 01:59:49.670 And then the interviewer asked this question. 01:59:49.790 --> 01:59:54.310 I have noticed Mr. Bush's references to the New World Order using expressions like 01:59:54.310 --> 01:59:57.170 a hundred points of light or a thousand points of light. 01:59:57.290 --> 01:59:58.470 This is New Age theology. 01:59:58.810 --> 01:59:59.490 Malachi Martin. 01:59:59.950 --> 02:00:00.750 Of course it is. 02:00:01.210 --> 02:00:04.530 There is a man of whom your readers would not have heard about by the name of 02:00:04.530 --> 02:00:05.790 Jacques Attali. 02:00:06.210 --> 02:00:07.350 He is a Frenchman. 02:00:07.550 --> 02:00:11.430 He is the head of the European Bank of Research and Development which is set up 02:00:11.430 --> 02:00:15.850 mainly with American equity to finance the restructuring of the financial 02:00:15.850 --> 02:00:17.610 institutions of Eastern Europe. 02:00:18.290 --> 02:00:22.350 He is a powerful man and this bank is also very powerful based in London and Paris. 02:00:22.650 --> 02:00:25.170 It will also be very influential in the New Europe. 02:00:25.670 --> 02:00:30.430 But if you listen to Attali and read his material you will discover that he is a 02:00:30.430 --> 02:00:31.750 proponent of euthanasia. 02:00:32.470 --> 02:00:35.190 He is completely a religion, Jewish or Christian. 02:00:35.370 --> 02:00:39.430 He openly states that once a man reaches the end of his productivity he should be 02:00:39.430 --> 02:00:41.370 put an end to his life. 02:00:41.870 --> 02:00:43.610 Why waste money and occupy space? 02:00:43.830 --> 02:00:45.810 This is exactly what the Nazis said. 02:00:45.910 --> 02:00:49.670 After a while they said we are so short on food we can't keep these people going. 02:00:50.190 --> 02:00:54.810 Let's exterminate these people that are mentally defective or people who are not 02:00:54.810 --> 02:00:56.030 productive for society. 02:00:58.330 --> 02:01:00.490 Well, that's all very interesting. 02:01:01.370 --> 02:01:06.330 I'd like to hit a few more things here, John, before we get into a historical 02:01:06.330 --> 02:01:06.830 sweep. 02:01:07.850 --> 02:01:16.870 We have had in our church, in our structured church, a very comprehensive, 02:01:17.890 --> 02:01:25.850 very deep, very broadly based statistical analysis, a survey that was done recently 02:01:25.850 --> 02:01:27.650 called Value Genesis. 02:01:28.570 --> 02:01:33.830 And as I read the reports of it, it was very clear to me, immediately I was 02:01:33.830 --> 02:01:34.870 nervous about the term. 02:01:34.870 --> 02:01:36.190 Value Genesis? 02:01:36.490 --> 02:01:37.390 Value Genesis. 02:01:37.690 --> 02:01:39.450 Where does that term come from? 02:01:39.630 --> 02:01:40.630 Is it in the Bible? 02:01:41.390 --> 02:01:44.970 We hear Genesis on a lot of things. 02:01:45.190 --> 02:01:46.290 Value Genesis. 02:01:47.090 --> 02:01:54.790 And it was obvious to me that this was an attempt to statistically validate the 02:01:54.790 --> 02:01:56.750 coming in of the celebration movement. 02:01:56.810 --> 02:01:59.590 To provide a statistical reason and rationale. 02:01:59.830 --> 02:02:04.970 The young people need more exciting services and all of this type of thing. 02:02:04.970 --> 02:02:05.770 Well, we've heard all that before. 02:02:05.870 --> 02:02:11.790 Well, in the book, The Jesuits, by Malachi Martin, he has a chapter on 02:02:11.790 --> 02:02:13.190 Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. 02:02:13.290 --> 02:02:15.470 And you remember from our last video who he is. 02:02:15.550 --> 02:02:19.730 He is the main influential figure. 02:02:19.790 --> 02:02:22.070 Even though he's passed away now, his books live on. 02:02:22.350 --> 02:02:23.070 Loads of books. 02:02:23.110 --> 02:02:26.470 If you go into books in print, you just see loads of them. 02:02:27.170 --> 02:02:29.550 He is the most influential figure in New Age. 02:02:30.270 --> 02:02:31.450 He is a Jesuit. 02:02:33.210 --> 02:02:40.050 And in discussing Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Malachi Martin is opposed to him. 02:02:40.730 --> 02:02:50.870 And he tells about the type of vocabulary that Pierre Teilhard de Chardin concocted. 02:02:51.710 --> 02:02:55.050 Here is page 288 in The Jesuits by Malachi Martin. 02:02:55.050 --> 02:03:00.670 Speaking of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, he himself preferred the terms 02:03:00.670 --> 02:03:04.150 cosmogenesis and anthropogenesis. 02:03:04.430 --> 02:03:07.790 His self-made vocabulary was dizzying. 02:03:08.950 --> 02:03:15.050 Amorization, hominization, christogenesis, christification, pluralization, 02:03:16.610 --> 02:03:18.450 excentration, biogenesis. 02:03:18.610 --> 02:03:19.890 Notice all the genesis words. 02:03:20.170 --> 02:03:25.750 Cosmogenesis, anthropogenesis, christogenesis, biogenesis are examples of 02:03:25.750 --> 02:03:27.090 a far longer litany. 02:03:28.950 --> 02:03:32.350 And now we have value genesis. 02:03:32.750 --> 02:03:33.850 Where did we get that term? 02:03:34.110 --> 02:03:34.990 Where did we get genesis? 02:03:35.050 --> 02:03:40.150 The only vocabulary that I know of, and apparently from Malachi Martin, 02:03:40.750 --> 02:03:43.770 a self-concocted vocabulary of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. 02:03:43.790 --> 02:03:45.790 And what does genesis imply going back to the beginning? 02:03:46.730 --> 02:03:52.070 And a change, a genesis, a development, a creation. 02:03:52.310 --> 02:03:53.010 A creation! 02:03:53.470 --> 02:03:54.550 Sure, a creation. 02:03:54.830 --> 02:04:00.930 And of course, reading here again from 288, what did Pierre Teilhard de Chardin 02:04:00.930 --> 02:04:01.190 believe? 02:04:02.130 --> 02:04:06.710 He says, once individual men and women appeared on the scene in several disparate 02:04:06.710 --> 02:04:10.190 groups all over the globe, there started a long last stage of development toward a 02:04:10.190 --> 02:04:14.530 total unity of all individuals in the omega point of history. 02:04:15.070 --> 02:04:16.810 We are still in the middle of that development. 02:04:16.810 --> 02:04:21.850 Once complete unity has been achieved, Christ, who will be the omega point, 02:04:22.170 --> 02:04:22.850 will appear. 02:04:23.410 --> 02:04:27.610 Man will then be more than man, will be what Teilhard called ultra-human. 02:04:28.230 --> 02:04:32.990 The cosmos will be transformed and the glory of it all will be established. 02:04:33.590 --> 02:04:38.550 I have here one of Teilhard de Chardin's books, The Future of Man, where he uses 02:04:38.550 --> 02:04:42.510 those terms, cosmogenesis and anthropogenesis. 02:04:42.570 --> 02:04:46.830 Well, what was this survey taken by the General Conference and how does it relate 02:04:46.830 --> 02:04:48.210 to what we're talking about today, Bob? 02:04:48.410 --> 02:04:51.550 I'm just pointing out where did that term come from? 02:04:51.670 --> 02:04:52.630 Where do we get this term? 02:04:52.650 --> 02:04:53.630 Well, obviously it's a Jesuit term. 02:04:53.750 --> 02:04:54.570 It's right out of the Jesuits. 02:04:54.570 --> 02:04:56.830 Just like celebration is right out of the Jesuits. 02:04:56.990 --> 02:05:01.990 The terminology that we are using in the structure of the Seventh-day Adventist 02:05:01.990 --> 02:05:07.950 hierarchy, almost all of the terms are right out of Jesuit information, 02:05:08.090 --> 02:05:09.410 right out of Jesuit thought. 02:05:09.510 --> 02:05:10.090 It's amazing. 02:05:10.430 --> 02:05:10.730 That's right. 02:05:12.130 --> 02:05:16.150 We know of nowhere else where these terms have been coined other than Pierre 02:05:16.150 --> 02:05:17.150 Teilhard de Chardin. 02:05:17.910 --> 02:05:20.370 All these terms with Genesis tacked on the back. 02:05:20.910 --> 02:05:27.710 I want to get a book here, John, now and Bob, do you believe that the 02:05:27.710 --> 02:05:30.250 majority of our leadership of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, our 02:05:30.250 --> 02:05:36.630 Conference leaders, know where this stuff is coming from or that they are just being 02:05:36.630 --> 02:05:40.690 led as lambs to the slaughter, sheep to the slaughter, like the laity 02:05:40.690 --> 02:05:40.930 are? 02:05:41.070 --> 02:05:43.530 I think most of them are being led as lambs to the slaughter. 02:05:43.750 --> 02:05:49.610 They have adopted the principle of laying aside their own judgment and accepting the 02:05:49.610 --> 02:05:51.650 judgment of the Church, which is a Jesuit principle. 02:05:51.850 --> 02:05:54.970 And based on that principle, they just follow blindly along. 02:05:55.090 --> 02:05:57.810 And they are being conditioned as well as the rest. 02:05:58.030 --> 02:06:04.450 But there is obviously a hard core of determined individuals somewhere that are 02:06:04.450 --> 02:06:09.290 bringing in these terms, bringing in these logos, bringing in these concepts and 02:06:09.290 --> 02:06:09.850 articles. 02:06:09.990 --> 02:06:11.210 Some of them we can identify. 02:06:13.130 --> 02:06:20.150 Now, John, I would like to talk a little bit about what has happened in 02:06:20.150 --> 02:06:28.570 Catholicism, natural law, and a little bit about family feuds that happen within 02:06:28.570 --> 02:06:29.990 organizations. 02:06:31.810 --> 02:06:37.810 Because I have just picked up a very interesting book here entitled, 02:06:38.570 --> 02:06:41.770 Born in Blood, The Lost Secrets of Freemasonry. 02:06:41.930 --> 02:06:43.470 And here the author, John J. 02:06:43.590 --> 02:06:52.350 Robinson, in this book, establishes in hundreds of pages the connection between 02:06:52.350 --> 02:06:57.290 the Knights Templar, which we talked about in the last video, and the Masons. 02:06:58.930 --> 02:07:05.290 I'd like to back up far beyond that year of Earth's history and look at natural law 02:07:05.290 --> 02:07:07.010 now, Roman Catholic natural law. 02:07:07.110 --> 02:07:13.730 We have done a number of issues of Freedom's Ring on natural law. 02:07:14.770 --> 02:07:19.130 And our last issue dealt with natural law and the New World Order. 02:07:19.330 --> 02:07:21.250 What issue are you on now in printing? 02:07:22.750 --> 02:07:23.650 Do you have a number? 02:07:24.350 --> 02:07:26.790 Yes, this is volume 3, number 3. 02:07:27.470 --> 02:07:30.610 The April-May issue, Natural Law and the New World Order. 02:07:30.830 --> 02:07:31.390 1992. 02:07:32.150 --> 02:07:32.930 Right, 1992. 02:07:33.870 --> 02:07:40.350 And this issue, we look at the theory of Roman Catholic natural law. 02:07:40.470 --> 02:07:49.330 And the more I am studying the theory of natural law in Catholicism and the history 02:07:49.330 --> 02:07:54.690 of it, it provides a key to understanding the common denominator. 02:07:54.690 --> 02:08:02.110 It is the common denominator between many of the activities of Roman Catholicism and 02:08:02.110 --> 02:08:04.450 the family, even though they may feud. 02:08:05.690 --> 02:08:11.270 Roman Catholicism suppressed, the papacy suppressed the Masons at the insistence of 02:08:11.270 --> 02:08:17.790 the kings of Europe, because the kings were getting furious at the Templars. 02:08:17.870 --> 02:08:22.090 The Templars were owning so much land and so much wealth. 02:08:22.090 --> 02:08:27.350 King Philip of France laid a plot against them. 02:08:28.790 --> 02:08:39.510 And he bided his time and on a Friday the 13th he arrested every every knight 02:08:39.510 --> 02:08:47.070 Templar in his nation at exactly the same time in the morning of Friday the 13th, 02:08:47.070 --> 02:08:49.310 except for 13 knights Templar. 02:08:49.310 --> 02:08:53.710 And it's believed that much of the superstition about Friday the 13th harks 02:08:53.710 --> 02:08:54.390 back to that time. 02:08:54.510 --> 02:08:59.470 He burned the Grand Master of the Knights Templar at the stake. 02:08:59.610 --> 02:09:05.490 But the Knights Templar had been an order in the Roman Catholic Church that rapidly 02:09:05.490 --> 02:09:11.830 grew and became the most powerful, probably the most powerful order there in 02:09:11.830 --> 02:09:13.410 the 13th and 14th centuries. 02:09:13.930 --> 02:09:17.590 They went over to the land of Palestine in the Crusades. 02:09:18.090 --> 02:09:24.170 They made contact with the occult over in Arabia. 02:09:25.090 --> 02:09:29.510 And that became part of their makeup in the occult connection. 02:09:29.890 --> 02:09:32.110 And that's where many of their symbols come from. 02:09:32.950 --> 02:09:37.070 You see the symbols right here on the front of the book. 02:09:37.930 --> 02:09:43.970 On the back page of this book we read Historian Robinson persuasively links 02:09:43.970 --> 02:09:49.250 Freemasonry's origins and goals to the once powerful and wealthy Knights Templar 02:09:49.250 --> 02:09:49.930 order. 02:09:50.510 --> 02:09:54.430 If there is only one book you read concerning the beginnings of Freemasonry, 02:09:54.490 --> 02:09:56.030 I would highly recommend this one. 02:09:56.110 --> 02:09:57.870 This is from the Montana Masonic News. 02:09:58.290 --> 02:10:02.610 It is a fascinating account of the Knights Templar after the death of de Molay in 02:10:02.610 --> 02:10:07.670 1313 to the establishment of the Grand Lodge of England in 1717. 02:10:08.330 --> 02:10:12.550 Basically, in a nutshell, the Knights Templar had to go underground for 02:10:12.550 --> 02:10:15.330 centuries and came back up. 02:10:15.390 --> 02:10:17.590 And that's one reason for all the secrecy. 02:10:18.130 --> 02:10:23.890 The lodges provided havens when they were being persecuted after their suppression. 02:10:24.230 --> 02:10:27.090 We want to come back to this later because this is quite significant. 02:10:27.490 --> 02:10:33.950 But let's go now to the foundations of Roman Catholic natural law. 02:10:34.130 --> 02:10:38.890 And I'm taking the material for this from this book Reason Informed by Faith, 02:10:39.050 --> 02:10:42.290 Foundations of Catholic Morality by Richard M. 02:10:42.390 --> 02:10:43.490 Gula, SS. 02:10:44.710 --> 02:10:49.630 He is a professor of moral theology at St. Patrick's Seminary in Menlo Park, 02:10:49.730 --> 02:10:50.270 California. 02:10:50.830 --> 02:10:53.810 Holds a PhD from the University of St. Michael, Toronto. 02:10:55.130 --> 02:11:02.070 And when I began researching, John, in chapter after chapter, what he tells us 02:11:02.070 --> 02:11:06.950 about natural law, it was absolutely fascinating. 02:11:08.130 --> 02:11:12.650 Let me bring to you some of the basic points here and the fundamental concepts 02:11:12.650 --> 02:11:14.070 about natural law. 02:11:14.510 --> 02:11:19.010 He starts right out on page 220 in his chapter, The Natural Law in Tradition. 02:11:19.690 --> 02:11:23.390 The natural law is central to Roman Catholic moral theology. 02:11:23.470 --> 02:11:25.990 In other words, it is the central feature. 02:11:26.170 --> 02:11:30.030 It is an essential, fundamental, central issue. 02:11:30.850 --> 02:11:34.490 It is the kind of reasoning which faith informs. 02:11:34.930 --> 02:11:39.210 Perhaps the single most characteristic feature of traditional Catholic morality 02:11:39.210 --> 02:11:44.850 is that the Church can teach a morality which is applicable always, everywhere, 02:11:45.150 --> 02:11:50.450 and for everyone because it relies on the natural law as the basis for its teaching. 02:11:51.050 --> 02:11:55.910 In fact, the claim of the Roman Catholic natural law tradition is that moral 02:11:55.910 --> 02:12:00.870 knowledge is accessible not just to believers, but to anyone who is willing to 02:12:00.870 --> 02:12:02.850 reflect critically upon human experience. 02:12:03.290 --> 02:12:04.830 Now, do we believe that as Protestants? 02:12:05.110 --> 02:12:06.370 What did Martin Luther say? 02:12:06.810 --> 02:12:12.310 The things of the kingdom are not understood except to the person who has 02:12:13.550 --> 02:12:21.050 slain reason and who has accepted faith in the word as his dominant feature of his 02:12:21.050 --> 02:12:21.750 experience. 02:12:21.990 --> 02:12:23.870 Spiritual things are spiritual things. 02:12:23.870 --> 02:12:29.910 But see, here is a natural law that the unbeliever understands as well as the 02:12:29.910 --> 02:12:30.270 believer. 02:12:30.430 --> 02:12:31.830 So that tells us something right there. 02:12:32.990 --> 02:12:39.210 The advantage of using natural law is that the Church shows great respect for human 02:12:39.210 --> 02:12:39.650 goodness. 02:12:40.410 --> 02:12:41.530 Now, what does the Bible say? 02:12:41.990 --> 02:12:43.230 Jeremiah 17, 9. 02:12:43.290 --> 02:12:47.010 The human heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. 02:12:47.370 --> 02:12:48.270 Who can know it? 02:12:49.370 --> 02:12:53.350 And our only righteousness is righteousness by faith in Christ, 02:12:53.490 --> 02:12:54.410 infinite righteousness. 02:12:55.190 --> 02:12:58.790 But here, the advantage of using natural law is that the Church shows great respect 02:12:58.790 --> 02:13:04.590 for human goodness and trusts the human capacity to know and choose what is right. 02:13:04.850 --> 02:13:09.870 And the Jesuits have been renowned about that for years. 02:13:10.090 --> 02:13:14.810 I mean, everyone knows what good works the Jesuits do because they do all these 02:13:14.810 --> 02:13:18.110 wonderful things for the poor and for the homeless and for the destitute that makes 02:13:18.110 --> 02:13:19.470 them wonderful, godly people. 02:13:19.550 --> 02:13:20.890 But that's just not the way it is. 02:13:21.510 --> 02:13:28.330 Does the human being have the unregenerate man have capacity to know and choose what 02:13:28.330 --> 02:13:30.110 is right, apart from the Holy Spirit? 02:13:30.450 --> 02:13:34.470 That's exactly the same thing that's going on with celebration in our Church. 02:13:34.890 --> 02:13:36.390 The end justifies the means. 02:13:36.510 --> 02:13:41.550 If it has some type of a religious connotation, some type of a holy and 02:13:41.550 --> 02:13:43.650 sanctimonious exterior, that must make it alright. 02:13:44.090 --> 02:13:48.590 Instead of looking at the overall scope of where it came from or the foundations of 02:13:48.590 --> 02:13:51.890 where this stuff came from and ultimately where it's heading, it's just, 02:13:52.150 --> 02:13:54.190 does it have a sanctimonious garb to it? 02:13:54.370 --> 02:13:54.670 Yes. 02:13:55.650 --> 02:14:00.490 We know that the human heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked 02:14:00.490 --> 02:14:03.790 and cannot choose what is right without the aid of the Holy Spirit. 02:14:04.190 --> 02:14:04.190 Absolutely. 02:14:04.790 --> 02:14:12.090 The human heart the carnal heart, Paul said in Romans 8 is carnal it is an 02:14:12.090 --> 02:14:13.810 enmity with the law of God. 02:14:14.350 --> 02:14:16.250 Look at all the people that are coming to church though. 02:14:16.490 --> 02:14:19.750 This shows that it's alright because we're getting all these people coming back to 02:14:19.750 --> 02:14:23.110 church now and the young people need this music and they need this drama and they 02:14:23.110 --> 02:14:26.910 need all these different things and we need to know how to get into a person's 02:14:26.910 --> 02:14:29.930 head and manipulate them to get them to come back to church. 02:14:30.250 --> 02:14:34.210 And so if we use all of these satanic methods to get people back to church, 02:14:34.310 --> 02:14:35.070 then it's alright. 02:14:35.430 --> 02:14:36.870 The end justifies the means. 02:14:37.390 --> 02:14:40.890 The end justifies the means is fundamental to Jesuitism, isn't it? 02:14:41.690 --> 02:14:46.530 Also, by means of appealing to natural law the church can address its discussion and 02:14:46.530 --> 02:14:50.670 claims for the rightness or wrongness of particular actions to all persons of good 02:14:50.670 --> 02:14:53.570 will, not just to those who share its religious convictions. 02:14:53.730 --> 02:14:57.110 So natural law is a very broadly based phenomenon. 02:14:57.750 --> 02:15:02.470 It is considered to be accessible to all humanity, regenerate or unregenerate. 02:15:03.030 --> 02:15:08.450 It shows great respect for the human goodness and it trusts the human capacity 02:15:08.450 --> 02:15:09.530 to know and choose what is right. 02:15:09.870 --> 02:15:13.850 Therefore, it's really spiritualistic in its roots because it doesn't acknowledge 02:15:13.850 --> 02:15:15.030 the fall of man. 02:15:15.470 --> 02:15:19.010 It doesn't acknowledge the depravity of man in his need for a savior. 02:15:21.150 --> 02:15:25.430 Now, what about the roots of natural law in antiquity? 02:15:26.010 --> 02:15:27.370 The roots of natural law. 02:15:30.670 --> 02:15:36.830 Joseph Fuchs wrote a major work entitled Natural Law, a Theological Investigation. 02:15:39.110 --> 02:15:44.330 He maintains that Revelation, that's the Bible, adds nothing new to what we can 02:15:44.330 --> 02:15:48.130 discover of the material content of morality through reason. 02:15:48.610 --> 02:15:55.890 Revelation, that's the Bible, what is revealed by God, adds nothing new to what 02:15:55.890 --> 02:15:59.150 we can discover of the material content of morality through reason. 02:15:59.570 --> 02:16:05.910 So what Joseph Fuchs here is saying is that through reason we can understand 02:16:05.910 --> 02:16:10.070 everything we need to know about morality and the Revelation of the Bible adds 02:16:10.070 --> 02:16:10.910 nothing new to it. 02:16:11.370 --> 02:16:16.850 So you see, reason is the final determiner of natural law. 02:16:17.570 --> 02:16:19.550 Now, in the book... 02:16:20.350 --> 02:16:22.330 That's the French Revolution, Bob! 02:16:22.610 --> 02:16:24.510 The goddess of reason! 02:16:24.510 --> 02:16:29.010 This is interesting, John, what you mention here about the French Revolution. 02:16:29.250 --> 02:16:35.150 Because in these books that are emerging, these men who are researching the Masons, 02:16:35.710 --> 02:16:40.910 they are pointing out how the Masons laid the groundwork for the French Revolution. 02:16:41.050 --> 02:16:47.390 And how when they would open up a prison the Masons who were prisoners in there 02:16:47.390 --> 02:16:51.810 would give the secret sign and they would be spared and the others would oftentimes 02:16:51.810 --> 02:16:53.410 be executed. 02:16:54.130 --> 02:17:00.590 But this matter of reason is so significant because it, along with 02:17:00.590 --> 02:17:07.150 hierarchism, those two are considered by Daubigny in his History of the Reformation 02:17:07.150 --> 02:17:11.490 to be the chief great enemies of Christianity. 02:17:11.690 --> 02:17:12.990 Here it is, 171. 02:17:13.290 --> 02:17:17.830 Christianity has two great adversaries, hierarchism and rationalism. 02:17:17.830 --> 02:17:19.970 That's the elevation of reason. 02:17:20.350 --> 02:17:24.590 So, notice now, natural law rests upon what? 02:17:25.290 --> 02:17:25.710 Reason. 02:17:26.210 --> 02:17:26.630 Reason. 02:17:26.810 --> 02:17:28.550 The Bible adds nothing to it. 02:17:29.390 --> 02:17:29.850 Reason. 02:17:30.530 --> 02:17:36.070 And so it is a system that rests upon rationalism, upon reason. 02:17:37.910 --> 02:17:39.730 Alright, now the Greek influence. 02:17:40.050 --> 02:17:41.970 What impact did the Greeks have? 02:17:42.570 --> 02:17:47.010 The Stoics were the earliest ones to develop a notion of natural law to a 02:17:47.010 --> 02:17:48.590 significant degree. 02:17:49.290 --> 02:17:53.170 They contributed to the natural law tradition by emphasizing nature, 02:17:53.250 --> 02:17:58.590 this is page 221, and the moral requirement to conform to what is given in 02:17:58.590 --> 02:17:58.930 nature. 02:17:59.370 --> 02:18:02.090 Now here you have the ancient Greeks, the Stoics. 02:18:02.710 --> 02:18:05.670 They believe in the order of nature. 02:18:06.310 --> 02:18:11.510 They emphasize nature and the moral requirement to conform to what is given in 02:18:11.510 --> 02:18:11.870 nature. 02:18:11.870 --> 02:18:14.550 Does that ring any bells with what we talked about earlier with the 02:18:14.550 --> 02:18:18.890 environmental concerns and man fitting into the environment? 02:18:58.990 --> 02:19:03.470 Environmental concerns and man fitting into the environment. 02:19:03.770 --> 02:19:10.890 You know there is an interesting passage, John, in Romans where Paul takes up this 02:19:10.890 --> 02:19:11.210 issue. 02:19:12.730 --> 02:19:14.050 Romans, chapter 1. 02:19:15.190 --> 02:19:18.210 You're used to carrying your little Bible in your coat pocket, aren't you? 02:19:18.350 --> 02:19:20.590 I saw you looking for it there. 02:19:20.790 --> 02:19:24.230 In fact, when I'm in a pinch, that does better than the big Bible because I know 02:19:24.230 --> 02:19:25.810 what side of the page it's on. 02:19:26.750 --> 02:19:27.190 Okay. 02:19:28.830 --> 02:19:29.770 Here, verse 16. 02:19:29.810 --> 02:19:31.630 I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. 02:19:31.730 --> 02:19:35.850 See, Paul was contending against this Greek philosophy. 02:19:35.850 --> 02:19:38.410 Hellenism had spread all across the Roman Empire. 02:19:39.250 --> 02:19:41.670 He had to contend against the same kind of thing as we do. 02:19:42.210 --> 02:19:45.710 It was the worship of the environment, the worship of the creature rather than 02:19:45.710 --> 02:19:46.170 the Creator. 02:19:46.770 --> 02:19:50.950 But Paul says, I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of 02:19:50.950 --> 02:19:55.150 God unto salvation to everyone that believeth, to the Jew first and also to 02:19:55.150 --> 02:19:55.550 the Greek. 02:19:55.910 --> 02:20:00.650 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith as it is 02:20:00.650 --> 02:20:02.010 written, the just shall live by faith. 02:20:02.250 --> 02:20:03.690 What do we conform to? 02:20:03.850 --> 02:20:09.210 We conform in our worldview as Christians to the word of God, to the will of God, 02:20:09.270 --> 02:20:14.030 to the law of God, to the character of God, not to the order of nature. 02:20:14.570 --> 02:20:19.630 Now, Bob, you've probably already figured this out, but it just hit me that this 02:20:21.370 --> 02:20:27.530 environmental plan and the thing of Catholicism being the foundation for this, 02:20:28.030 --> 02:20:30.170 that this is all leading to pantheism. 02:20:30.170 --> 02:20:30.770 Oh, sure. 02:20:30.930 --> 02:20:35.430 Which Ellen White says was a part of the Alpha Apostasy, and she says the Omega 02:20:35.430 --> 02:20:40.030 would be of a much more startling nature, that this new age is going to be the 02:20:40.030 --> 02:20:43.510 pantheism that is resurrected in the last days. 02:20:43.730 --> 02:20:45.490 Exactly, and it's the Omega Christ. 02:20:45.930 --> 02:20:49.550 They talk about the Omega point of verse history, the Omega Christ. 02:20:50.070 --> 02:20:53.730 The new age, you see, she said, would be of the same nature, but it would 02:20:53.730 --> 02:20:56.170 be of a much more, it would be much more startling. 02:20:56.290 --> 02:20:56.610 That's right. 02:20:56.690 --> 02:21:02.090 And so resurgence of pantheism is coming through new age and the environment where 02:21:02.090 --> 02:21:03.230 God is in everything. 02:21:03.770 --> 02:21:03.910 Yes. 02:21:04.110 --> 02:21:06.610 And you see, then it spreads into our church. 02:21:06.790 --> 02:21:07.870 That is so clear. 02:21:08.650 --> 02:21:13.390 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and 02:21:13.390 --> 02:21:18.470 unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness, because that which may 02:21:18.470 --> 02:21:22.450 be known of God is manifest in them, for God has showed it unto them. 02:21:22.730 --> 02:21:26.690 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, 02:21:27.090 --> 02:21:30.590 being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead. 02:21:30.650 --> 02:21:35.850 So the things of nature are designed to point to God and conformity to God and his 02:21:35.850 --> 02:21:40.110 law, so that they are without excuse, because that when they knew God, 02:21:40.190 --> 02:21:43.870 they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful, but became vain in 02:21:43.870 --> 02:21:46.170 their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 02:21:46.550 --> 02:21:50.090 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools and changed the glory of 02:21:50.090 --> 02:21:55.630 the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man and to birds and 02:21:55.630 --> 02:21:59.730 four-footed beasts and creeping things, so they gave the glory that was due to God 02:21:59.730 --> 02:22:05.530 to the environment, to the creature, and therefore God also gave them up to 02:22:05.530 --> 02:22:09.030 uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts to dishonor their own bodies 02:22:09.030 --> 02:22:14.010 between themselves, who changed the truth of God into a lie and worshipped and 02:22:14.010 --> 02:22:16.930 served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. 02:22:17.230 --> 02:22:22.950 So it's obvious to me that today the environmentalists are the new proponents 02:22:22.950 --> 02:22:23.950 of pantheism. 02:22:24.170 --> 02:22:32.430 Well, it's this submission to the order of nature, which is the ancient Stoic concept 02:22:32.430 --> 02:22:36.310 of natural law, which was incorporated into Roman Catholicism. 02:22:37.390 --> 02:22:44.350 So this idea of conforming to what is given in nature is very fundamental to 02:22:44.350 --> 02:22:45.510 Roman Catholic natural law. 02:22:45.510 --> 02:22:46.930 They got it from the pagans. 02:22:47.090 --> 02:22:49.110 They got it from the Stoics, from the Greeks. 02:22:49.770 --> 02:22:53.710 For the Stoics, the goal of philosophy was to achieve right moral conduct. 02:22:53.890 --> 02:22:54.430 Sounds good. 02:22:54.630 --> 02:22:55.050 Absolutely. 02:22:55.790 --> 02:22:56.730 Sounds wonderful. 02:22:57.350 --> 02:23:00.470 As thoroughgoing materialists, they believed that the world was an 02:23:00.470 --> 02:23:05.350 interconnected series of events and that right moral living came with conforming to 02:23:05.350 --> 02:23:07.270 the given world order. 02:23:08.570 --> 02:23:10.130 Don't fool with mother nature. 02:23:10.330 --> 02:23:13.630 It may be taken as their basic moral imperative. 02:23:13.990 --> 02:23:15.870 Sounds like the environmentalists of today. 02:23:17.430 --> 02:23:22.930 Abiding by this maxim demands accepting what is given in nature as it is, 02:23:23.290 --> 02:23:28.210 cooperating with the interconnected rhythms of life and not attempting to 02:23:28.210 --> 02:23:31.050 control or shape nature to fit a personal goal. 02:23:33.270 --> 02:23:36.370 Any talk of self-direction would make no sense to the Stoics. 02:23:36.510 --> 02:23:39.730 Since the given order of events will ultimately assert themselves according to 02:23:39.730 --> 02:23:44.110 their own design anyway, the human task is simply to capitulate to what is given. 02:23:44.830 --> 02:23:48.670 Aristotle influenced the natural law tradition, especially in St. Thomas. 02:23:48.750 --> 02:23:52.390 Now, St. Thomas was the greatest systematic theologian the Roman Catholic 02:23:52.390 --> 02:23:53.310 Church ever had. 02:23:55.090 --> 02:23:59.630 The law of nature is the orientation of all beings toward their perfection. 02:24:00.470 --> 02:24:05.630 Since the specific nature of humans is rationality, reason, morally good actions 02:24:05.630 --> 02:24:10.750 would be those which are rationally directed toward the full actualization of 02:24:10.750 --> 02:24:11.890 human potential. 02:24:13.630 --> 02:24:14.690 So what is it? 02:24:14.750 --> 02:24:17.350 Now, that's a very significant thing for natural law. 02:24:18.330 --> 02:24:19.490 Let me read that again. 02:24:19.810 --> 02:24:24.010 The law of nature is the orientation of all beings toward their perfection. 02:24:24.710 --> 02:24:31.050 Since the specific nature of humans is rationality, reason, morally good actions 02:24:31.050 --> 02:24:35.090 would be those which are rationally directed toward the full actualization of 02:24:35.090 --> 02:24:35.830 human potential. 02:24:36.090 --> 02:24:41.770 Now, this concept of human potential is very fundamental in psychology. 02:24:42.470 --> 02:24:44.630 Achieving your full potential. 02:24:45.030 --> 02:24:47.150 I remember a professor that I had. 02:24:47.830 --> 02:24:49.270 You're having courses in our churches. 02:24:49.370 --> 02:24:50.330 What do you mean, Bob? 02:24:50.450 --> 02:24:53.670 How to fulfill your potential to know your spiritual gift. 02:24:54.050 --> 02:24:58.350 That's why all of these seminars are being held in our churches across the nation on 02:24:58.350 --> 02:25:02.390 finding out what your spiritual gifts are so that you can go along with this same 02:25:02.390 --> 02:25:04.830 concept of being into your full potential. 02:25:04.950 --> 02:25:06.150 It sounds very good. 02:25:06.310 --> 02:25:07.190 Very pious. 02:25:07.310 --> 02:25:12.270 I had a professor, John, who spoke about this issue of achieving your full 02:25:12.270 --> 02:25:13.830 potential being the main goal. 02:25:13.950 --> 02:25:19.690 And if your current mate doesn't help out with that, maybe some adjustment needs to 02:25:19.690 --> 02:25:20.430 be made there. 02:25:21.490 --> 02:25:22.310 Like getting a new one? 02:25:22.590 --> 02:25:25.630 Well, he did just that two months after class. 02:25:26.130 --> 02:25:31.870 He was going around training the ministers all over North America in marriage 02:25:31.870 --> 02:25:32.510 enrichment. 02:25:32.830 --> 02:25:34.550 Marriage encounter seminars. 02:25:34.830 --> 02:25:37.430 Training the ministers how to enrich marriage. 02:25:37.610 --> 02:25:39.350 Training the ministers how to do this. 02:25:39.430 --> 02:25:41.330 And he enriched his marriage by getting a new wife. 02:25:41.370 --> 02:25:44.830 He came on a flight back to Andrews. 02:25:45.430 --> 02:25:47.790 Fell into conversation with a woman sitting next to him. 02:25:47.870 --> 02:25:50.270 By the end of the flight, they decided they wanted to spend the rest of their 02:25:50.270 --> 02:25:50.930 life together. 02:25:51.330 --> 02:25:52.890 He left his wife and two kids. 02:25:53.390 --> 02:25:54.730 That's a way to enrich your marriage. 02:25:56.270 --> 02:26:03.030 And by the way, a physician friend of mine called me a few weeks ago and he was 02:26:03.030 --> 02:26:05.870 talking to me for about an hour or two on the phone one Sunday. 02:26:06.390 --> 02:26:09.670 He said, Bob, we had friends who were at a convention. 02:26:10.950 --> 02:26:11.730 Adventist friends. 02:26:11.930 --> 02:26:14.630 And they went into a booth run by Roman Catholics. 02:26:15.430 --> 02:26:17.930 And when the Roman Catholics found out they were Seventh-day Adventists, 02:26:17.970 --> 02:26:19.710 they said, Oh, you're Seventh-day Adventists. 02:26:20.050 --> 02:26:24.910 We have a workshop that we designed for your church. 02:26:25.190 --> 02:26:26.230 And they said, Oh, really? 02:26:26.290 --> 02:26:26.750 What is it? 02:26:27.110 --> 02:26:30.350 It's the Marriage Enrichment, the Marriage Encounter Workshop. 02:26:30.370 --> 02:26:33.330 Oh, the Marriage Encounter Workshop that all the Constantines are promoting. 02:26:33.590 --> 02:26:33.790 Yes. 02:26:33.910 --> 02:26:34.410 Why, sure. 02:26:34.410 --> 02:26:36.310 And that was designed by the Roman Catholics? 02:26:36.530 --> 02:26:40.270 So after this phone conversation, this doctor, who is very knowledgeable in 02:26:40.270 --> 02:26:41.550 all of this New Age stuff. 02:26:41.610 --> 02:26:43.710 He's a personal friend of Constance Comby. 02:26:44.470 --> 02:26:52.590 He got on the phone and he called the Marriage Encounter Center in his area and 02:26:52.590 --> 02:26:55.950 talked to them and said, Where did this, where was this developed? 02:26:56.130 --> 02:26:57.190 Where did it come from? 02:26:57.450 --> 02:26:59.490 The Marriage Enrichment, Marriage Encounter Program. 02:27:00.470 --> 02:27:06.830 And they said it was developed by a Spanish priest in Spain in 1963. 02:27:07.810 --> 02:27:13.690 One year after Vatican II, a Catholic priest in Spain develops a workshop. 02:27:14.090 --> 02:27:17.390 The Marriage Enrichment Workshop that are being used and promoted today in the 02:27:17.390 --> 02:27:18.450 Seventh-day Adventist Church. 02:27:18.830 --> 02:27:19.090 Yeah. 02:27:20.830 --> 02:27:21.190 Okay. 02:27:22.150 --> 02:27:23.570 The Roman influence. 02:27:24.790 --> 02:27:29.850 Whereas the Greeks emphasized nature, the Romans emphasized the law of the 02:27:29.850 --> 02:27:30.550 natural order. 02:27:30.930 --> 02:27:32.990 They wanted to establish political order. 02:27:33.630 --> 02:27:38.810 And they spoke of natural law as the innate power of reason to direct action. 02:27:38.910 --> 02:27:41.250 Notice this whole thing has a pagan base. 02:27:41.630 --> 02:27:43.790 The ancient Greeks, ancient Romans. 02:27:44.170 --> 02:27:48.390 To live according to the law given in nature is to live according to what reason 02:27:48.390 --> 02:27:48.950 commands. 02:27:50.590 --> 02:27:56.610 And then the author here goes through a number of Romans that were significant in 02:27:56.610 --> 02:28:00.510 developing this concept of natural law. 02:28:01.290 --> 02:28:05.110 And he comes down to the jurist, the Roman jurist, Ulpian. 02:28:06.670 --> 02:28:15.110 And Ulpian taught natural law as being what nature has taught all animals. 02:28:15.850 --> 02:28:21.490 This law is not peculiar to humans but is the generic rule of action common to 02:28:21.490 --> 02:28:22.830 humans and to animals. 02:28:23.390 --> 02:28:28.570 In this sense natural law comes close to the idea of animal instinct. 02:28:28.870 --> 02:28:32.270 Now can you think this is page 222, 223. 02:28:32.630 --> 02:28:41.250 Can you think, John, of anyone in modern times who has studied instinct as a key to 02:28:41.250 --> 02:28:43.530 understanding the human mind? 02:28:43.830 --> 02:28:44.570 What about Freud? 02:28:45.290 --> 02:28:46.250 Sigmund Freud, absolutely. 02:28:46.250 --> 02:28:47.110 What did he say? 02:28:47.590 --> 02:28:52.230 He said that the sexual drive or instinct Everything was sexual. 02:28:52.430 --> 02:28:52.630 Yes. 02:28:52.710 --> 02:28:53.410 Sigmund Freud. 02:28:53.950 --> 02:29:02.030 So you see how this basic concept of Ulpian in Roman jurisprudence, 02:29:02.170 --> 02:29:09.490 his law of nature concept was that it is the generic rule of action common to 02:29:09.490 --> 02:29:10.970 animals and to man. 02:29:11.330 --> 02:29:15.050 In this sense natural law comes close to the idea of animal instinct. 02:29:15.770 --> 02:29:20.650 Ulpian's understanding of nature leads to identifying the human with animal 02:29:20.650 --> 02:29:23.130 structures tendencies and behaviors. 02:29:23.330 --> 02:29:25.670 That is the foundation of our modern psychology. 02:29:26.510 --> 02:29:32.310 And you combine that with the other dimension of the human potential movement 02:29:32.310 --> 02:29:36.030 the human potential concept of modern psychology. 02:29:36.990 --> 02:29:38.210 And what do you have? 02:29:38.350 --> 02:29:44.550 Modern psychology rests upon the same foundation base as Roman Catholic natural 02:29:44.550 --> 02:29:44.570 law. 02:29:44.590 --> 02:29:45.650 Modern psychoanalysts. 02:29:45.670 --> 02:29:46.150 Absolutely. 02:29:46.510 --> 02:29:51.210 What did Ellen White have to say about psychology at the end of time? 02:29:51.310 --> 02:29:57.130 She said hypnotism and psychology would work marvelously upon the last generation 02:29:57.130 --> 02:29:58.950 just before the close of probation. 02:29:58.950 --> 02:30:00.270 Don't we see that happening? 02:30:00.950 --> 02:30:12.450 And John the church growth movement I one time had as part of a faculty to analyze a 02:30:12.450 --> 02:30:20.930 potentially new faculty member who was at that time a professor at the seminary and 02:30:20.930 --> 02:30:25.530 he was teaching church growth and he brought all of his materials and he spread 02:30:25.530 --> 02:30:27.370 them out and we spent all day long. 02:30:27.970 --> 02:30:33.970 And I immediately picked up as soon as I saw the materials they were all talking 02:30:33.970 --> 02:30:38.890 about Freud and Carl Rogers and all of these men. 02:30:39.110 --> 02:30:44.750 By the way let me just grab a book here entitled Psychoheresy. 02:30:44.810 --> 02:30:45.930 You can get it from the ABC. 02:30:46.230 --> 02:30:50.230 You can order this It's amazing how much of this stuff you can get from the ABC 02:30:50.230 --> 02:30:51.370 That's what's so frightening. 02:30:51.630 --> 02:30:56.270 Well this thing fortunately exposes the psychology of our day. 02:30:57.310 --> 02:31:04.410 But this book written by Martin and Dieter Bobgen tells us at the very beginning of 02:31:04.410 --> 02:31:12.870 the book how the men who have founded our modern psychology that's Freud and Rogers 02:31:13.430 --> 02:31:21.530 and Carl Jung were all deeply into the occult. 02:31:22.190 --> 02:31:24.270 All of them were deeply into the occult. 02:31:25.350 --> 02:31:31.670 And Carl Jung even had his own personal familiar spirit by the name of Philemon. 02:31:32.750 --> 02:31:39.590 These are the dominant men who have shaped our psychology. 02:31:39.930 --> 02:31:45.250 And John just think of the extent and influence of psychology today. 02:31:45.830 --> 02:31:51.690 Through psychology the gospel has been destroyed in our ministry. 02:31:52.190 --> 02:31:58.990 The psychology of church growth and this man that we were analyzing all day that 02:31:58.990 --> 02:32:07.390 day with his church growth concepts that rested upon Freud and Rogers and these 02:32:07.390 --> 02:32:08.410 psychologists. 02:32:08.610 --> 02:32:13.870 He wanted to make all the members of the church mini-counselors who were trained in 02:32:13.870 --> 02:32:15.210 all of this psychology. 02:32:15.350 --> 02:32:20.070 That's the whole purpose of labs 1 and 2 of calling and caring ministries is 02:32:20.070 --> 02:32:23.650 because they want to make everybody counselors and psychoanalysts and be able 02:32:23.650 --> 02:32:25.230 to get inside people's heads. 02:32:25.430 --> 02:32:26.810 It's modern psychology. 02:32:27.090 --> 02:32:34.930 But John it is just unbelievable when you realize that the concepts of this modern 02:32:34.930 --> 02:32:38.410 psychology rests upon Roman Catholic natural law. 02:32:39.310 --> 02:32:46.810 Reason being the foundation and the idea of looking at the instincts of man looking 02:32:46.810 --> 02:32:49.730 at the mind of man fitting into the order of nature. 02:32:50.090 --> 02:32:56.250 These concepts have replaced Christianity in our ministry. 02:32:56.690 --> 02:32:58.310 And that's one of our fundamental problems. 02:32:58.450 --> 02:33:04.590 And in this way through these natural law concepts Roman Catholicism has destroyed 02:33:04.590 --> 02:33:05.210 our ministry. 02:33:05.410 --> 02:33:09.710 And they're sending all of our pastors and assisting our pastors take courses in 02:33:09.710 --> 02:33:12.290 psychology for marriage counseling and all this kind of stuff. 02:33:12.490 --> 02:33:18.650 And they're getting into all this modern psychoanalysts and stuff from Freud and 02:33:18.650 --> 02:33:19.370 all of these guys. 02:33:19.570 --> 02:33:25.470 And how can our men who are supposedly called to the ministry be studying and 02:33:25.470 --> 02:33:30.290 getting into all of this psychology and still keep their minds clear for the 02:33:30.290 --> 02:33:31.130 preaching of the gospel? 02:33:31.290 --> 02:33:32.530 It's impossible, Bob. 02:33:32.530 --> 02:33:33.210 You can't do it. 02:33:33.370 --> 02:33:34.930 The two do not mix. 02:33:35.250 --> 02:33:36.630 They're incompatible. 02:33:36.830 --> 02:33:38.210 They're mutually exclusive. 02:33:38.450 --> 02:33:39.810 I've got to get something else here, John. 02:33:40.390 --> 02:33:42.070 I picked up this book recently. 02:33:42.630 --> 02:33:44.170 Actually, this is one of two volumes. 02:33:44.310 --> 02:33:45.430 Both of them are this thick. 02:33:46.290 --> 02:33:50.030 A New Critique of Theoretical Thought by Herman Deweyweird. 02:33:50.650 --> 02:33:52.010 We quoted from him last time. 02:33:52.130 --> 02:33:53.810 We quoted from Deweyweird last time. 02:33:53.930 --> 02:34:02.510 This man is a very profound man and he tells us in here how he's a professor of 02:34:02.510 --> 02:34:03.710 philosophy of law. 02:34:04.250 --> 02:34:10.890 This whole set of books is entitled A New Critique of Theoretical Thought. 02:34:11.290 --> 02:34:16.730 And what he does is he tears apart all this modern philosophy and says it is not 02:34:16.730 --> 02:34:17.250 Christian. 02:34:17.690 --> 02:34:17.830 Amen. 02:34:18.330 --> 02:34:22.770 And that the human heart, you know, at the root of what he is saying is the 02:34:22.770 --> 02:34:29.290 human heart has been built by God with a religious orientation, with an orientation 02:34:29.290 --> 02:34:31.810 to God that cannot be denied. 02:34:32.030 --> 02:34:33.570 It cannot be destroyed. 02:34:33.710 --> 02:34:36.130 It is part of the makeup of man. 02:34:36.710 --> 02:34:41.990 And therefore true religion, veritable religion, is absolute self-surrender to 02:34:41.990 --> 02:34:42.390 God. 02:34:42.710 --> 02:34:45.250 And God has to be God. 02:34:45.430 --> 02:34:47.690 He is beyond the creation. 02:34:47.970 --> 02:34:49.610 He is the absolute one. 02:34:49.910 --> 02:34:52.970 And we have to surrender absolutely to Him. 02:34:53.090 --> 02:34:58.030 And if we fail to do that, we surrender to our idols because we make something that 02:34:58.030 --> 02:34:59.730 is relative absolute. 02:35:00.050 --> 02:35:00.930 That's idolatry. 02:35:00.990 --> 02:35:01.890 That's idolatry. 02:35:02.330 --> 02:35:03.310 That is idolatry. 02:35:04.150 --> 02:35:11.110 And you see, one of the great dangers and the thing that many people are mixed up in 02:35:11.110 --> 02:35:18.710 now is if you make something your ground point of reference, your starting point, 02:35:19.030 --> 02:35:21.810 your reference point, that is your God, you see. 02:35:21.810 --> 02:35:25.510 And God must be that through His Word to us. 02:35:26.290 --> 02:35:31.630 And if we fail to make God our reference point in absolute surrender, we wind up 02:35:31.630 --> 02:35:35.210 making something else absolute, such as church structure being the norm, 02:35:35.310 --> 02:35:36.070 the reference point. 02:35:36.530 --> 02:35:41.430 Making the church manual your basis is a form of idolatry. 02:35:41.450 --> 02:35:42.130 Of course it is. 02:35:42.310 --> 02:35:43.570 Idolatry, pure and simple. 02:35:43.990 --> 02:35:47.230 And these people who go around using the church manual, our church leadership, 02:35:47.370 --> 02:35:51.090 going around using the church manual as their basis for doing anything, 02:35:51.510 --> 02:35:53.290 it's idolatry, pure and simple. 02:35:53.390 --> 02:35:58.730 Anytime the Word of God and inspiration ceases to be your basis, it's idolatry. 02:35:59.050 --> 02:36:03.790 And you see, back in the 1880s, our general conference men voted to never 02:36:03.790 --> 02:36:05.250 ever have a church manual. 02:36:05.410 --> 02:36:09.550 And because they knew that this very thing would happen, that one day it would be 02:36:09.550 --> 02:36:11.350 exalted above the Word of God. 02:36:11.510 --> 02:36:15.830 What were God's people, God's professed people, guilty of at the time of Mount 02:36:15.830 --> 02:36:16.250 Carmel? 02:36:17.030 --> 02:36:17.350 Idolatry. 02:36:17.610 --> 02:36:20.270 We are repeating the history of ancient Israel. 02:36:20.570 --> 02:36:25.290 We are just as guilty of idolatry in 1992 in the 7th Avenue church as they were at 02:36:25.290 --> 02:36:26.690 the time of Elijah and Mount Carmel. 02:36:27.110 --> 02:36:27.430 That's right. 02:36:27.890 --> 02:36:28.430 Exactly. 02:36:29.250 --> 02:36:34.490 Well, looking on here in the development of the thinking and natural law, 02:36:34.990 --> 02:36:40.910 we've looked at Ulpian who identified the human with animal structures, tendencies, 02:36:41.110 --> 02:36:41.750 and behaviors. 02:36:41.750 --> 02:36:48.970 And we've seen how this concept forms the foundation for modern psychology, 02:36:49.130 --> 02:36:53.110 particularly Freud, which orients human behavior to animal structures, 02:36:53.610 --> 02:36:58.150 tendencies, behaviors, and instincts, rather than relating man to the image of 02:36:58.150 --> 02:36:59.830 God and submission to His Word. 02:37:01.530 --> 02:37:06.570 Under Ulpian, natural law now takes on a physicalist cast whereby the natural moral 02:37:06.570 --> 02:37:11.630 order becomes identified with the properties, operations, and goals of the 02:37:11.630 --> 02:37:14.590 natural or given structures of physical animal life. 02:37:14.650 --> 02:37:20.330 So see, natural law looks at the structures of animal life as a source for 02:37:20.330 --> 02:37:21.270 determining law. 02:37:21.730 --> 02:37:26.050 According to such a view, the moral act becomes identified with the physical act 02:37:26.050 --> 02:37:28.450 which corresponds to animal processes. 02:37:28.850 --> 02:37:32.350 So notice how morality then becomes tied in. 02:37:32.790 --> 02:37:40.070 It becomes the instincts of the human being become the norm for morality rather 02:37:40.070 --> 02:37:41.090 than the Word of God. 02:37:42.090 --> 02:37:49.370 This is an extremely dangerous development, you see, in the order of 02:37:49.370 --> 02:37:49.650 nature. 02:37:50.110 --> 02:37:54.670 By the High Middle Ages, two strains, and this is quoting out of this book by 02:37:54.670 --> 02:37:57.370 Gula, Reason and Form by Faith. 02:37:57.410 --> 02:38:02.110 By the High Middle Ages, two strains of interpretation dominated the natural law 02:38:02.110 --> 02:38:02.470 tradition. 02:38:02.650 --> 02:38:07.610 One, the order of nature, identified with the Stoics and Ulpian, focused on the 02:38:07.610 --> 02:38:11.790 physical and biological structures given in nature as the source of morality. 02:38:12.070 --> 02:38:14.030 So what does it do for its ground point? 02:38:14.090 --> 02:38:15.030 It doesn't go to God. 02:38:15.390 --> 02:38:20.870 It goes to the physical and biological structures in nature as the source of 02:38:20.870 --> 02:38:21.450 morality. 02:38:21.970 --> 02:38:25.950 The other, the order of reason, identified with Aristotle, Cicero, 02:38:26.050 --> 02:38:32.230 and Gaius, focused on the human capacity to discover in experience what befits 02:38:32.230 --> 02:38:33.450 human well-being. 02:38:33.650 --> 02:38:36.850 So there, in this strain, there's two strains of natural law. 02:38:37.070 --> 02:38:43.490 In this second strain, the individual using reason looks at human experience to 02:38:43.490 --> 02:38:48.910 determine what befits human well-being, what is good for human well-being. 02:38:49.550 --> 02:38:54.910 St. Thomas Aquinas, that's the greatest systematic theologian of the Roman 02:38:54.910 --> 02:38:57.170 Catholic Church, accepted both strains. 02:38:57.730 --> 02:39:01.710 Since his teaching is the seminal influence on the traditional Catholic use 02:39:01.710 --> 02:39:06.010 of natural law, subsequent Catholic theology has been influenced by both 02:39:06.010 --> 02:39:08.330 interpretations as well. 02:39:09.070 --> 02:39:15.210 Okay, Thomas Aquinas' concept about natural law was this two-pronged concept, 02:39:15.470 --> 02:39:20.910 John, and the idea is that humans participate in eternal law by reason. 02:39:21.010 --> 02:39:28.090 There's that dominant reason again, and that we find out what natural law is 02:39:28.090 --> 02:39:31.650 by discovering what being human really means, you see. 02:39:32.030 --> 02:39:39.130 Notice it doesn't refer us to the Lord, it refers us to what does it mean to be 02:39:39.130 --> 02:39:39.650 really human? 02:39:39.870 --> 02:39:42.290 You know, your idea of that might be something completely different. 02:39:43.610 --> 02:39:49.070 But reason is to be used in determining what being really human means. 02:39:50.230 --> 02:39:50.770 And therefore... 02:39:50.770 --> 02:39:52.010 I wish I had the quote. 02:39:52.150 --> 02:39:56.490 I think it's from either six testimonies or nine testimonies where Ellen White says 02:39:56.490 --> 02:40:03.030 that the very same things that brought about the French Revolution will happen 02:40:03.030 --> 02:40:05.010 once again, just before Christ comes. 02:40:05.050 --> 02:40:05.450 That's right. 02:40:06.730 --> 02:40:11.070 In the Thomistic perspective, that's Thomas Aquinas, doing good is following 02:40:11.070 --> 02:40:14.730 reason's lead to actualize human potential. 02:40:14.870 --> 02:40:18.450 There's your modern psychology concept. 02:40:19.490 --> 02:40:23.730 Evil is whatever frustrates or prohibits that full realization. 02:40:24.410 --> 02:40:28.270 So the individual has to actualize their full potential. 02:40:29.070 --> 02:40:33.090 This fundamental norm does not give content for action, but it does indicate a 02:40:33.090 --> 02:40:36.570 basic disposition we ought to have, according to Thomas. 02:40:37.250 --> 02:40:42.570 It encourages us to become who we are by acting in a way that would actualize our 02:40:42.570 --> 02:40:43.010 potential. 02:40:43.430 --> 02:40:46.430 That idea comes through over and over again. 02:40:47.150 --> 02:40:51.970 Aquinas then moves on to the specific norms of natural law based on the natural 02:40:51.970 --> 02:40:52.970 inclinations. 02:40:54.250 --> 02:40:58.290 Now, would you like law based on natural inclinations of the human heart? 02:40:58.470 --> 02:40:58.990 Terrifying. 02:40:59.630 --> 02:41:01.970 That's what Nazism had. 02:41:02.150 --> 02:41:06.090 The origin of our specific moral obligations lies in these natural 02:41:06.090 --> 02:41:10.790 inclinations, which give content to the fundamental requirement to do good and 02:41:10.790 --> 02:41:11.570 avoid evil. 02:41:11.570 --> 02:41:16.990 The practical reason perceives the natural inclinations in human beings in the form 02:41:16.990 --> 02:41:18.530 of moral imperatives. 02:41:18.710 --> 02:41:25.290 So the natural inclinations in people become moral imperatives which become the 02:41:25.290 --> 02:41:27.150 concrete conclusions of natural law. 02:41:27.470 --> 02:41:32.250 So on the one hand, basic, just to summarize it and encapsulate it, 02:41:32.290 --> 02:41:36.330 on the one hand, John, we have the order of nature concept with these environmental 02:41:36.330 --> 02:41:40.070 type of thing of fitting into the environment, fitting into nature, 02:41:40.250 --> 02:41:42.170 fitting, conforming to nature. 02:41:42.510 --> 02:41:46.170 On the other hand, we have the order of reason concept of natural law, 02:41:46.350 --> 02:41:53.830 which uses reason to evaluate what being truly human really means, and the good is 02:41:53.830 --> 02:41:58.410 what actually promotes the full potential of the human being. 02:41:58.510 --> 02:42:01.130 Now, what if someone else stands in the way of your full potential? 02:42:01.410 --> 02:42:02.590 And you exterminate them. 02:42:02.650 --> 02:42:08.330 That is exactly what, when you look at Nazism, John, what did Hitler say? 02:42:08.590 --> 02:42:10.410 And that's National Socialism. 02:42:11.090 --> 02:42:15.910 He said, the Aryan peoples have to actualize their full potential. 02:42:16.130 --> 02:42:23.710 In other words, we have to become the master race, we have to achieve our full 02:42:23.710 --> 02:42:26.070 potential and let nothing stand in our way. 02:42:26.710 --> 02:42:28.010 Okay, there's your order of reason. 02:42:28.870 --> 02:42:33.830 On the other hand, in order to accomplish that, the order of nature natural law had 02:42:33.830 --> 02:42:38.170 to be obeyed by biological purity, racial purity. 02:42:38.730 --> 02:42:44.730 You see, the subhuman races that stand in the way that are inferior have to go so 02:42:44.730 --> 02:42:50.370 they don't adulterate the blood of this master race and so we can bear children 02:42:50.370 --> 02:42:52.410 who are in the image of the Lord. 02:42:52.450 --> 02:42:53.730 That's right out of Mein Kampf. 02:42:54.770 --> 02:43:00.850 So you see, the two strains that Thomas Aquinas accepted in Roman Catholic law are 02:43:00.850 --> 02:43:05.290 really the basis of National Socialism in Germany, that whole movement. 02:43:05.490 --> 02:43:10.150 And that even beyond the Argentine government releasing papers showing the 02:43:10.150 --> 02:43:14.530 connection between the Vatican and Nazism and what we know about the concordat 02:43:14.530 --> 02:43:21.450 between the Pope and Hitler and Mussolini and Franco and the escape routes at the 02:43:21.450 --> 02:43:22.530 end over the Alps. 02:43:22.910 --> 02:43:28.350 Natural law is the basic philosophical premise of National Socialism. 02:43:28.750 --> 02:43:34.750 Now, when the Jesuits say they want to take a nation like America that was once 02:43:34.750 --> 02:43:40.650 steeped in the absolutes of Protestant morality, shifting it through relativism 02:43:40.650 --> 02:43:46.630 and then bringing it into natural law, that is astounding when you look at 02:43:46.630 --> 02:43:47.050 history. 02:43:47.490 --> 02:43:53.070 Look at the developments that have happened in the 20th century based on 02:43:53.070 --> 02:43:57.710 natural law and these natural inclinations becoming moral imperatives. 02:43:57.950 --> 02:44:03.710 You can see that in the philosophy and the thinking and the ideology of National 02:44:03.710 --> 02:44:08.070 Socialism, of Nazism. 02:44:08.190 --> 02:44:12.270 They wanted to go back to their primitive roots, their primitive drives, 02:44:12.650 --> 02:44:17.370 the primitive Teutonic drives, you see, and nothing was to stand in the 02:44:17.370 --> 02:44:17.970 way of that. 02:44:18.610 --> 02:44:22.510 So, natural law when you understand those two dimensions. 02:44:22.650 --> 02:44:28.210 Now, in more recent times, natural law in Catholicism has tended to emphasize the 02:44:28.210 --> 02:44:30.350 order of reason aspect of it. 02:44:30.690 --> 02:44:34.730 And psychology has tended to emphasize the order of reason, exploring human 02:44:34.730 --> 02:44:43.010 experience to see what is the what will develop the human potential to the 02:44:43.010 --> 02:44:43.370 ultimate. 02:44:44.050 --> 02:44:49.510 And so we have different emphases and different shifts at different periods in 02:44:49.510 --> 02:44:53.650 Roman Catholic history but really we see the two of them emerging again in 02:44:53.650 --> 02:45:00.010 psychology as well as in the environmental concerns, forming a basis, a platform by 02:45:00.010 --> 02:45:04.890 which all peoples, whether regenerate or unregenerate, can find a common bond, 02:45:05.010 --> 02:45:09.990 a common linkage for interdependence, globalism, collectivism, everybody coming 02:45:09.990 --> 02:45:11.050 together in unity. 02:45:11.370 --> 02:45:13.790 What could be more important than saving the world? 02:45:13.790 --> 02:45:15.430 Saving our planet. 02:45:15.590 --> 02:45:22.490 If there's anything that will unite the world, it's this cry of saving the planet 02:45:22.490 --> 02:45:28.550 and the environmentalists are becoming a common denominator among all factions of 02:45:28.550 --> 02:45:29.570 people around the world. 02:45:29.690 --> 02:45:32.490 We've all got to come together to save our world. 02:45:32.670 --> 02:45:34.830 Sounds very righteous. 02:45:35.250 --> 02:45:35.510 Sure. 02:45:35.730 --> 02:45:37.690 It always comes as an angel of light. 02:45:37.810 --> 02:45:38.230 Absolutely. 02:45:38.270 --> 02:45:40.450 Here's a couple more points now. 02:45:40.450 --> 02:45:42.370 This is page 243. 02:45:44.670 --> 02:45:50.210 A moral position based on natural law, then, would be an expression of what the 02:45:50.210 --> 02:45:55.990 moral community discovers in its experience to be most contributing to the 02:45:55.990 --> 02:46:01.330 full actualization of human potential to attain human wholeness. 02:46:01.650 --> 02:46:07.430 Now, do you think that the moral community on earth, the Church, will discover in its 02:46:07.430 --> 02:46:12.510 experience something that will most contribute to the full actualization of 02:46:12.510 --> 02:46:15.410 human potential to attain human wholeness? 02:46:16.350 --> 02:46:17.690 Let me guess. 02:46:18.030 --> 02:46:19.970 Sunday sacredness, Sunday worship. 02:46:20.470 --> 02:46:20.950 Of course. 02:46:21.110 --> 02:46:26.910 What could contribute more to the full wholeness of humanity and the 02:46:26.910 --> 02:46:28.870 actualization of human potential? 02:46:28.970 --> 02:46:34.990 And besides Mary, the apparition of Mary over at Mujagore has been calling for the 02:46:34.990 --> 02:46:36.750 world to keep Sunday. 02:46:36.930 --> 02:46:42.370 This is breaking the heart of Jesus, that His Church is not keeping the Lord's 02:46:42.370 --> 02:46:42.710 day. 02:46:43.430 --> 02:46:48.130 Now, John, I want to briefly turn to John Kirtney Murray, the Jesuit, who wrote this 02:46:48.130 --> 02:46:55.050 book, We Hold These Truths, and look at page 301, how he describes natural law. 02:46:55.810 --> 02:46:58.450 This is the Jesuit concept of natural law now. 02:46:58.890 --> 02:46:59.210 Quote, 02:47:06.630 --> 02:47:11.890 And what it can know, and on the other hand, what human society is, and to what 02:47:11.890 --> 02:47:13.170 ends it should work. 02:47:14.090 --> 02:47:19.890 But, as is obvious, all this is to inquire what man himself is, what this human 02:47:19.890 --> 02:47:23.810 nature is of which one predicates a law natural. 02:47:24.850 --> 02:47:29.830 In Catholic natural law, one opts for, quote, a metaphysic of right. 02:47:30.290 --> 02:47:32.990 I say right advisedly, not rights. 02:47:33.290 --> 02:47:39.410 So notice, in natural law, in Catholic natural law, the issue is right rather 02:47:39.410 --> 02:47:41.470 than subjective rights. 02:47:42.810 --> 02:47:47.270 The natural law does not, in the first instance, furnish a philosophy of human 02:47:47.270 --> 02:47:51.570 rights in the sense of subjective immunities and powers to demand. 02:47:51.650 --> 02:47:56.270 In other words, the natural law, and he makes a sharp distinction between 02:47:56.270 --> 02:48:00.790 Roman Catholic natural law and the law of nature, which our founding fathers were 02:48:00.790 --> 02:48:03.270 involved in, the Protestant concepts of the law of nature. 02:48:04.050 --> 02:48:05.990 He says they are 180 degrees apart. 02:48:06.670 --> 02:48:10.710 The Roman Catholic natural law does not furnish a philosophy of human rights in 02:48:10.710 --> 02:48:13.470 the sense of subjective immunities, like the Bill of Rights, you see, 02:48:13.970 --> 02:48:15.010 and powers to demand. 02:48:15.330 --> 02:48:19.590 This philosophy is consequent on the initial furnishing of a philosophy of 02:48:19.590 --> 02:48:23.090 right, justice, law, juridical order, and social order. 02:48:23.190 --> 02:48:29.510 So first, Murray says, you've got to have a philosophy of right, of justice, 02:48:29.690 --> 02:48:33.630 of law, juridical order, legal order, and social order. 02:48:35.950 --> 02:48:41.090 Now, I want to look at a few more concepts here. 02:48:41.270 --> 02:48:45.230 The reason is that natural law thinking does not set out, as Locke did, 02:48:45.330 --> 02:48:47.070 from the abstract, isolated individual. 02:48:47.170 --> 02:48:51.970 In other words, natural law thinking does not start out from the abstract, 02:48:52.270 --> 02:48:53.310 isolated individual. 02:48:53.470 --> 02:48:57.490 In reality, the concept of the priesthood of all believers, as we've demonstrated in 02:48:57.490 --> 02:49:01.830 other freedoms rings, and ask what his inalienable rights are as an individual. 02:49:01.990 --> 02:49:04.350 So natural law does not ask about inalienable rights. 02:49:04.810 --> 02:49:10.790 Rather, it regards the community as a given equally with the person. 02:49:11.310 --> 02:49:14.950 Man is regarded as a member of an order instituted by God. 02:49:15.070 --> 02:49:20.910 And as we think back, the long term over Roman Catholicism, there is the divine 02:49:20.910 --> 02:49:26.410 right of kings, you know, the feudal order of things, and you just fit as a cog into 02:49:26.410 --> 02:49:26.910 that order. 02:49:27.210 --> 02:49:29.630 And subject to the laws that make the order an order. 02:49:30.110 --> 02:49:34.930 Laws that derive from the nature of man, which is as essentially social as it is 02:49:34.930 --> 02:49:35.390 individual. 02:49:35.930 --> 02:49:40.330 In the natural law climate of opinion, very different from that set by the 02:49:40.330 --> 02:49:45.530 Protestant law of nature, objective law has the primacy over subjective rights. 02:49:46.010 --> 02:49:52.470 Now, in the Smith 2 case, where Scalia was trained in the Jesuit University 02:49:52.470 --> 02:50:01.130 Georgetown formulated that idea that opinion that was then basically ushered 02:50:01.130 --> 02:50:04.770 into the field of law as a result of the decision of the Supreme Court Justices 02:50:04.770 --> 02:50:12.370 that if there is a valid law a neutral law of general applicability if you have a 02:50:12.370 --> 02:50:17.310 conscientious conviction that runs afoul of that law, you have no choice you have 02:50:17.310 --> 02:50:18.050 to obey. 02:50:18.710 --> 02:50:22.250 So objective law has the primacy over subjective rights. 02:50:22.850 --> 02:50:26.450 Law is not simply the protection of rights, but their source because it is the 02:50:26.450 --> 02:50:27.230 foundation of duties. 02:50:27.710 --> 02:50:30.050 That's the difference between Catholicism and Protestantism. 02:50:30.190 --> 02:50:34.230 So natural law takes our Constitution and turns it upside down. 02:50:35.270 --> 02:50:36.290 And it destroys. 02:50:36.590 --> 02:50:42.010 And Ellen White says that every Republican and Protestant principle of our 02:50:42.010 --> 02:50:44.050 Constitution will be repudiated. 02:50:45.670 --> 02:50:50.650 So, going through this just briefly the Jesuit definition of the meaning of 02:50:50.650 --> 02:50:54.590 natural law is that it is an issue of right, which would be defined as the 02:50:54.590 --> 02:50:57.630 Church according to natural law, rather than rights. 02:50:58.430 --> 02:51:01.590 There goes the Bill of Rights, to be replaced by right as defined by the 02:51:01.590 --> 02:51:01.770 Church. 02:51:02.050 --> 02:51:04.690 The community is a given equal to the individual. 02:51:04.810 --> 02:51:06.190 There's that community concept. 02:51:06.790 --> 02:51:10.230 And this again leads to the suppression of individual rights in the name of the 02:51:10.230 --> 02:51:11.610 community, as in Communism. 02:51:12.050 --> 02:51:12.530 3. 02:51:12.990 --> 02:51:17.350 Man is viewed as a member of the order, subject to the laws that make the order an 02:51:17.350 --> 02:51:20.210 order, derived from the nature of man exhibited in society. 02:51:20.530 --> 02:51:24.170 So you just fit into the order, the structure, the hierarchy of the 02:51:24.170 --> 02:51:24.470 nation. 02:51:25.510 --> 02:51:25.990 4. 02:51:26.210 --> 02:51:29.970 Objective law has primacy over subjective rights, as in the Smith 2 case. 02:51:30.530 --> 02:51:31.010 5. 02:51:31.330 --> 02:51:36.550 Law is the source of rights, therefore rights are subject to the whim of law. 02:51:36.550 --> 02:51:41.770 So what Roman Catholic natural law does is take the United States Constitution and 02:51:41.770 --> 02:51:44.710 Bill of Rights and turn it upside down and totally negate everything that this 02:51:44.710 --> 02:51:45.610 country was founded upon. 02:51:45.770 --> 02:51:50.190 Did you notice how Joseph Biden was nervous about this concept of natural law? 02:51:50.310 --> 02:51:52.150 Joseph Biden gives me the creeps. 02:51:52.310 --> 02:51:57.130 But he was still nervous about Clarence Thomas ideas about natural law. 02:51:57.190 --> 02:52:01.230 And he said in the first day of the hearings, he said the real issue that 02:52:01.230 --> 02:52:04.690 we're looking at with this nominee to the Supreme Court Clarence Thomas, 02:52:05.270 --> 02:52:07.070 is the issue of natural law. 02:52:07.130 --> 02:52:08.450 And what does he mean by it? 02:52:08.490 --> 02:52:09.630 And he wouldn't really tell. 02:52:12.670 --> 02:52:13.190 6. 02:52:13.610 --> 02:52:17.090 Human rights in the sense of subjective immunities and powers to demand is 02:52:17.090 --> 02:52:22.430 consequent on the initial furnishing of a philosophy of right, justice, law, 02:52:22.590 --> 02:52:23.850 juridical order, and social order. 02:52:23.950 --> 02:52:29.590 So in the Jesuit concept of natural law, first you erect this concept of what is 02:52:29.590 --> 02:52:36.070 right, what is just, and what the law is, and then you have your rights after that. 02:52:36.510 --> 02:52:38.650 And that's exactly the way it was in Russia. 02:52:38.750 --> 02:52:41.130 Isn't that what's going on in our church, Bob? 02:52:41.790 --> 02:52:46.210 That the denomination decides what is right, and then you must subject your 02:52:46.210 --> 02:52:49.510 conscience to their conscience, and if your conscience is contrary to 02:52:49.510 --> 02:52:53.690 their conscience, then you must subject yourself to their conscience and acquiesce 02:52:53.690 --> 02:52:54.410 to their conscience? 02:52:54.490 --> 02:52:56.990 Isn't that what is coming right down from the hierarchical system? 02:52:56.990 --> 02:53:01.070 It's even been explicitly stated that way to an individual. 02:53:01.350 --> 02:53:07.470 Now, Malachi Martin tells us that John Paul has taken a position on this, 02:53:07.970 --> 02:53:13.990 that no one has the right democratic or otherwise to a moral wrong, and no 02:53:13.990 --> 02:53:18.730 religion based on divine revelation has a moral right to teach such a moral wrong or 02:53:18.730 --> 02:53:19.750 abide by it. 02:53:20.030 --> 02:53:23.510 So the question is, who decides what is a moral wrong? 02:53:23.990 --> 02:53:28.390 And once it is decided that something is a moral wrong, such as perhaps teaching the 02:53:28.390 --> 02:53:34.670 fourth commandment about the seventh day salmon, then that body of people have no 02:53:34.670 --> 02:53:36.750 right to teach that position. 02:53:37.350 --> 02:53:40.750 Bob, I cannot help but think of something that you said to me yesterday. 02:53:41.030 --> 02:53:46.370 You said, what we are coming down to is a decision whether we are going to be Roman 02:53:46.370 --> 02:53:49.480 Catholic Seventh-day Adventist or Protestant Seventh-day Adventist. 02:53:50.390 --> 02:53:53.650 And I believe our people need to know that. 02:53:53.930 --> 02:53:59.830 And you see, if we do not exercise Protestantism as a people and we get used 02:53:59.830 --> 02:54:06.690 to the conditioning process of fitting into a community decision regarding right 02:54:06.690 --> 02:54:13.530 based on another norm than the Word of God and imposing that, such as natural law 02:54:13.530 --> 02:54:18.470 does, we are subjecting ourselves to a conditioning process to ultimately receive 02:54:18.470 --> 02:54:19.150 the mark of the beast. 02:54:19.150 --> 02:54:21.430 This is Catholicism versus Protestantism. 02:54:21.550 --> 02:54:25.950 And what we have to ask is, are we going to be Roman Catholic Seventh-day Adventist 02:54:25.950 --> 02:54:27.750 or Protestant Seventh-day Adventist? 02:54:27.790 --> 02:54:29.370 That's the basic premise here, folks. 02:54:29.610 --> 02:54:36.210 And even the basic notion of submission to an order imposed by church and society, 02:54:36.650 --> 02:54:41.150 rather than asking first, what is the order of the Word, like Jesus did and John 02:54:41.150 --> 02:54:47.010 the Baptist did, conditions the people to ultimately deal with the independent 02:54:47.010 --> 02:54:52.190 ministries, you see, and biblical Adventism, not because its doctrines are 02:54:52.190 --> 02:54:57.390 erroneous, but because it has violated the order imposed by an ecumenically conscious 02:54:57.390 --> 02:54:57.930 structure. 02:54:59.530 --> 02:55:05.370 Would you mind saying that one more time slowly, with emphasis? 02:55:06.730 --> 02:55:08.910 I'll just read it right here out of Freedom's Ring. 02:55:09.610 --> 02:55:15.290 The notion of submission to the order imposed by church and society has become 02:55:15.290 --> 02:55:19.150 very strongly entrenched in the rank and file of Adventism. 02:55:19.590 --> 02:55:24.630 Most of Adventism now functions upon the philosophical premises of Catholic natural 02:55:24.630 --> 02:55:25.030 law. 02:55:25.590 --> 02:55:29.090 They are prepared to deal with the independent ministries and historic 02:55:29.090 --> 02:55:34.190 biblical Adventism, not because its doctrines are erroneous, but because it 02:55:34.190 --> 02:55:38.570 has violated the order imposed by an ecumenically conscious structure. 02:55:38.570 --> 02:55:45.050 In its quest for truth, biblical Adventism operates upon the biblical Protestant 02:55:45.050 --> 02:55:50.430 philosophical base, which is completely alien to Catholic natural law. 02:55:52.190 --> 02:55:58.210 And that's why we have to have the security, John, of a heart, life, 02:55:58.510 --> 02:56:03.010 and our very thinking anchored to the living God through absolute surrender to 02:56:03.010 --> 02:56:07.850 the Word by faith, so we can get an abundant triumph over the Pope's New World 02:56:07.850 --> 02:56:08.150 Order. 02:56:08.850 --> 02:56:14.630 As Luther declared in D'Aubigné's History of the Reformation here, Book 6, 02:56:14.790 --> 02:56:19.410 Chapter 9, "...my strength and my consolation are in a place where neither 02:56:19.410 --> 02:56:21.670 men nor devils can reach them." Amen. 02:56:21.970 --> 02:56:23.330 That's the way we've got to be, Bob. 02:56:23.450 --> 02:56:27.650 We've got to be so rooted and grounded in why we believe what we believe that we 02:56:27.650 --> 02:56:32.990 cannot be swayed from being Protestant Seventh Adventists and slowly being led 02:56:32.990 --> 02:56:34.870 into being Roman Catholic Seventh Adventists. 02:56:34.970 --> 02:56:37.730 And that's where the majority of our denomination are headed today. 02:56:37.910 --> 02:56:40.070 They're becoming Roman Catholic Seventh Adventists. 02:56:40.130 --> 02:56:40.790 And it's frightening. 02:56:41.090 --> 02:56:42.670 It's happening so quickly, Bob. 02:56:43.350 --> 02:56:45.370 I can't believe what is happening among our people. 02:56:45.570 --> 02:56:49.530 Now I'd like to talk about family feuds in the Roman Catholic Church, John. 02:56:49.870 --> 02:56:57.070 At the very time when Thomas Aquinas was writing these things about the two strains 02:56:57.070 --> 02:57:04.130 of natural law, the order of nature and the order of reason, the Knights Templar, 02:57:04.190 --> 02:57:08.430 which we just mentioned a little bit ago, were becoming very, very powerful. 02:57:09.150 --> 02:57:10.650 They went on the Crusades. 02:57:10.770 --> 02:57:12.790 They went over to the lands of the East. 02:57:12.910 --> 02:57:16.350 They made contact with the occult over there, which came into their order. 02:57:17.110 --> 02:57:21.670 They developed vast land holdings in France and other countries. 02:57:22.450 --> 02:57:27.810 They had the major central bank that they operated in France. 02:57:28.790 --> 02:57:33.170 And Philip of France got so fearful that he suppressed the order. 02:57:33.330 --> 02:57:36.910 He arrested all of them, as we mentioned earlier, except for 13 on a Friday the 02:57:36.910 --> 02:57:37.530 13th. 02:57:37.830 --> 02:57:41.290 He demanded of the Pope that the order be repressed. 02:57:41.710 --> 02:57:47.690 The Pope was very reluctant, but finally he went along with the suppression of the 02:57:47.690 --> 02:57:53.710 order and he issued orders for the suppression of the Knights Templar. 02:57:53.710 --> 02:57:58.250 Now, in England, in this book, Born in Blood, by John J. 02:57:58.370 --> 02:58:04.050 Robinson, in England, these Knights Templar went underground. 02:58:05.130 --> 02:58:08.170 They established lodges where they had a safe place. 02:58:08.310 --> 02:58:15.010 They established secret signs so that they would know and recognize each other as 02:58:15.010 --> 02:58:15.770 fellow Masons. 02:58:16.510 --> 02:58:19.250 And they began fomenting revolution. 02:58:19.450 --> 02:58:22.870 They wanted to get back in this family feud with the Pope. 02:58:22.990 --> 02:58:28.710 They wanted to get back at the Church as well as the State, the two entities that 02:58:28.710 --> 02:58:29.670 were persecuting them. 02:58:29.870 --> 02:58:33.850 Because they wanted to establish, as Knights Templar, they had wanted to 02:58:33.850 --> 02:58:36.330 establish a one-world order. 02:58:37.230 --> 02:58:41.670 And so they began fomenting trouble. 02:58:42.270 --> 02:58:47.610 The Peasants' Revolt in England, where almost 100,000 men marched on 02:58:47.610 --> 02:58:53.590 London, was one evidence of their work shortly after their suppression, 02:58:53.830 --> 02:58:55.350 a few decades after their suppression. 02:58:55.770 --> 02:58:57.090 They came swarming through. 02:58:57.130 --> 02:58:59.110 There was nothing that could stop these men. 02:58:59.390 --> 02:59:00.450 They had conspired. 02:59:00.590 --> 02:59:02.050 They had laid all their plans. 02:59:02.670 --> 02:59:07.250 They had men who had let down the drawbridges across the canals. 02:59:07.730 --> 02:59:10.250 They had men in strategic places. 02:59:10.910 --> 02:59:15.830 They came and they burned down the buildings of the Knights of Malta, 02:59:15.910 --> 02:59:20.890 the Hospitalliers, because the Knights of Malta had been given all their holdings in 02:59:20.890 --> 02:59:21.670 France, you see. 02:59:22.570 --> 02:59:25.250 And so it was a family feud. 02:59:26.250 --> 02:59:28.310 And they developed the Masons. 02:59:28.930 --> 02:59:32.350 And the Masons stayed underground for centuries. 02:59:33.010 --> 02:59:38.610 In this book here, New World Order by William Still, there is an enormous amount 02:59:38.610 --> 02:59:39.710 of information here. 02:59:39.810 --> 02:59:42.430 New World Order, the ancient plan of secret societies. 02:59:42.910 --> 02:59:46.730 William Still is a former newspaper editor and a publisher. 02:59:46.930 --> 02:59:51.290 He has written for USA Today, the Saturday Evening Post, Los Angeles Times Syndicate, 02:59:51.630 --> 02:59:55.870 Omni Magazine, and produced the syndicated radio program Health News. 02:59:56.270 --> 03:00:02.610 His father developed the communications, the defense communications network for the 03:00:02.610 --> 03:00:03.050 military. 03:00:03.710 --> 03:00:10.010 And during the height of the Nixon struggle, the struggle between Nixon and 03:00:10.010 --> 03:00:14.570 the Supreme Court over the Watergate tapes, a high-ranking military man came to 03:00:14.970 --> 03:00:21.230 William's father and said, Do you think the time is right for a coup in America? 03:00:22.130 --> 03:00:24.670 And his father couldn't believe it. 03:00:24.890 --> 03:00:25.930 And this is during the Nixon administration? 03:00:25.930 --> 03:00:26.310 Yes. 03:00:27.130 --> 03:00:29.390 And he tells right about in the first few pages here. 03:00:30.070 --> 03:00:35.970 And William Still's father retained his cool, his equanimity, and he encouraged a 03:00:35.970 --> 03:00:36.930 man to tell him more. 03:00:37.750 --> 03:00:43.330 And he was astounded to find that there was being circulated a plot, a plan, 03:00:43.710 --> 03:00:50.750 to subvert the authority of the Supreme Court by Nixon ensconcing himself in 03:00:50.750 --> 03:00:51.130 power. 03:00:51.890 --> 03:00:54.850 This led William Still to do ten years of research. 03:00:55.290 --> 03:00:56.370 What was behind it? 03:00:56.650 --> 03:00:59.650 As you remember, John, there was a tremendous struggle between the left wing 03:00:59.650 --> 03:01:01.810 and the right wing in Nixon's era. 03:01:02.030 --> 03:01:06.210 And William Still came to the conclusion that left was being pitted against right 03:01:06.210 --> 03:01:08.270 for a takeover by the Masons in the middle. 03:01:08.690 --> 03:01:14.190 The Masons, remember, the Knights Templar is the highest degree in the York Rite. 03:01:14.910 --> 03:01:19.230 The top three, recapping from Jesuit Agenda 2, the top three degrees of the 03:01:19.230 --> 03:01:22.650 York Rite, which is designed for the Christian branch, quote-unquote, 03:01:22.870 --> 03:01:28.630 of the Masons, is the Knights of the Red Cross, the Knights of Malta, who William 03:01:28.630 --> 03:01:31.230 Casey, the CIA director, was one. 03:01:31.770 --> 03:01:33.030 We discussed that last time. 03:01:33.550 --> 03:01:34.850 And the Knights Templar. 03:01:35.850 --> 03:01:40.470 So here you had a situation, William Still discovered in his research, where Nixon 03:01:40.470 --> 03:01:45.110 was planning to ensconce himself in power if necessary and not give up those tapes 03:01:45.110 --> 03:01:50.290 and to use the Marines who were around Washington to protect himself and to 03:01:50.290 --> 03:01:51.670 ensconce himself in power. 03:01:52.110 --> 03:01:56.550 Meanwhile, there were generals, high-ranking generals, who knew what Nixon 03:01:56.550 --> 03:02:01.170 was up to and who were determined that if Nixon did that, they would bring in the 03:02:01.170 --> 03:02:05.310 82nd Airborne from North Carolina and attack the Marines. 03:02:05.610 --> 03:02:09.290 We were on the point of civil war and we didn't know it as a people. 03:02:10.050 --> 03:02:10.050 Unbelievable. 03:02:10.790 --> 03:02:14.630 And this is the son of the man who developed the communications network for 03:02:14.630 --> 03:02:15.190 the military. 03:02:15.610 --> 03:02:22.110 Anyway, he traces the whole history of the Masons and I just want to hit some 03:02:22.110 --> 03:02:23.710 significant points in here. 03:02:23.890 --> 03:02:28.910 You know, Bob, we're going to find out stuff during the Millennium that is just 03:02:28.910 --> 03:02:30.050 going to curl our hair. 03:02:30.190 --> 03:02:35.110 We have no idea how God has been holding back the winds of strife. 03:02:35.290 --> 03:02:37.330 Hold, hold, hold, he tells those angels. 03:02:37.690 --> 03:02:38.290 That's right. 03:02:38.770 --> 03:02:43.190 He goes into the connection between Karl Marx and the Masons and the 03:02:43.190 --> 03:02:44.190 Internationale. 03:02:44.610 --> 03:02:49.490 So you see, in the Russian Revolution, we have a new book here by Richard Pipes 03:02:49.490 --> 03:02:50.510 for you to read, John. 03:02:50.690 --> 03:02:52.050 I'll do that tonight. 03:02:52.530 --> 03:02:54.750 It is almost a thousand pages long. 03:02:55.050 --> 03:02:57.990 Richard Pipes is the authority on the Russian Revolution. 03:02:58.630 --> 03:03:04.110 And in this book, he tells of how the Russian Revolution was not a class 03:03:04.110 --> 03:03:09.170 struggle, but it was, let me just read it off the back here. 03:03:09.210 --> 03:03:13.450 Richard Pipes argues convincingly that the Russian Revolution was an intellectual 03:03:13.450 --> 03:03:18.590 rather than a class uprising, that it was steeped in terror from its very outset, 03:03:18.930 --> 03:03:23.110 and that it was not a revolution at all, but a coup d'etat, the capture of 03:03:23.110 --> 03:03:26.010 governmental power by a small minority. 03:03:26.450 --> 03:03:32.370 Now, we know that Marxism was established in Russia as a result of the Bolshevik 03:03:32.370 --> 03:03:32.930 Revolution. 03:03:34.330 --> 03:03:42.550 He has a chapter in here on the intelligentsia and discusses the concepts 03:03:42.550 --> 03:03:47.630 of communist thinking. 03:03:48.390 --> 03:03:51.270 The intelligentsia worked for decades. 03:03:51.390 --> 03:03:56.370 From about 1860 on, they were fomenting, fomenting, fomenting in the universities. 03:03:56.570 --> 03:04:00.550 The majority of the students in the universities were the sons of priests, 03:04:01.250 --> 03:04:02.250 and they were fomenting. 03:04:02.330 --> 03:04:05.510 They wanted to bring down the czar, you see. 03:04:05.790 --> 03:04:09.050 And you remember in 1917, the Fatima vision took place. 03:04:09.150 --> 03:04:13.090 A year and two months later, the czar was murdered. 03:04:13.610 --> 03:04:16.610 The Bolshevik Revolution was in full swing. 03:04:17.530 --> 03:04:22.670 Here, let me tell you what Trotsky said about the human being whom the new regime 03:04:22.670 --> 03:04:23.510 would create. 03:04:24.130 --> 03:04:30.390 You see, the idea behind the Russian Revolution was to create a completely new 03:04:30.390 --> 03:04:31.150 human being. 03:04:31.630 --> 03:04:35.550 It was to be an experiment that would be extended all over the world. 03:04:35.990 --> 03:04:41.030 It would create a new human being, not only in Russia, but also in the world. 03:04:41.610 --> 03:04:44.210 That's why we have such terms as the International. 03:04:44.950 --> 03:04:49.010 It was an international thing, and Freemasonry supported it at every 03:04:49.010 --> 03:04:49.670 place. 03:04:50.710 --> 03:04:52.610 Now, here's what Trotsky wrote. 03:04:54.210 --> 03:04:56.290 Here's the human being that the new regime would create. 03:04:56.450 --> 03:05:00.130 Quote, Man will at last begin to harmonize himself in earnest. 03:05:00.250 --> 03:05:01.170 Notice, harmonize. 03:05:01.230 --> 03:05:02.030 Notice the terms now. 03:05:02.310 --> 03:05:04.010 Remember what we studied about natural law. 03:05:04.530 --> 03:05:08.890 He will want to master first the semi-conscious, and then also the 03:05:08.890 --> 03:05:11.550 unconscious processes of his own organism. 03:05:12.250 --> 03:05:17.550 Breathing, the circulation of blood, digestion, reproduction, and within the 03:05:17.550 --> 03:05:21.250 necessary limits will subordinate them to the control of reason and will. 03:05:21.570 --> 03:05:26.010 Remember the order of reason, the order of nature, the structures of man, 03:05:26.410 --> 03:05:27.650 the animal structures. 03:05:28.090 --> 03:05:31.210 All of this is going to be all harmonized in this revolution. 03:05:31.450 --> 03:05:32.010 Notice that. 03:05:32.530 --> 03:05:36.830 Even purely physiological life will become collectively experimental. 03:05:37.350 --> 03:05:41.070 Notice the collective aspect and the experimental aspect. 03:05:41.650 --> 03:05:45.950 The human species, the sluggish homo sapiens, will once again enter the state 03:05:45.950 --> 03:05:51.350 of radical reconstruction and will become in its own hands the object of the most 03:05:51.350 --> 03:05:55.790 complex methods of artificial selection and psychophysical training. 03:05:56.150 --> 03:06:00.810 Man will make it his goal to master his own emotions, to elevate his instincts to 03:06:00.810 --> 03:06:04.850 the heights of consciousness, to make them transparent, to create a higher 03:06:04.850 --> 03:06:08.150 socio-biological type, a superman if you will. 03:06:08.490 --> 03:06:13.490 Notice the correlation with the super race concept of Nazism. 03:06:13.850 --> 03:06:14.070 Pages. 03:06:14.690 --> 03:06:16.070 This is page 137. 03:06:17.210 --> 03:06:21.170 Man will become incomparably stronger, wiser, subtler. 03:06:21.530 --> 03:06:23.190 His body will become more harmonious. 03:06:23.230 --> 03:06:27.790 Now this is Trotsky who engineered the Bolshevik revolution. 03:06:28.890 --> 03:06:32.190 His body will become more harmonious, his mind his movements more rhythmic, 03:06:32.530 --> 03:06:34.050 his voice more melodious. 03:06:34.390 --> 03:06:38.710 The forms of life will acquire a dynamic theatricality. 03:06:39.190 --> 03:06:44.490 The average human type will rise to the heights of an Aristotle, go through Marx, 03:06:44.650 --> 03:06:46.790 and beyond this ridge other peaks will emerge. 03:06:47.130 --> 03:06:52.210 So it was to create... what they wanted to do with the Russian revolution was to 03:06:52.210 --> 03:06:55.330 create a new man. 03:06:56.130 --> 03:06:56.730 Antichrist. 03:06:56.870 --> 03:07:02.970 And it would be based on these concepts of natural law, which we discussed. 03:07:03.030 --> 03:07:04.790 You can see them inherent here. 03:07:05.930 --> 03:07:13.550 And it would be a social engineering project to create a new man, because it 03:07:13.550 --> 03:07:19.810 was believed by the communists that if you change the environment, you change the 03:07:19.810 --> 03:07:20.190 person. 03:07:20.730 --> 03:07:23.270 Now have you ever heard anything about that in America? 03:07:23.810 --> 03:07:23.810 Absolutely. 03:07:23.850 --> 03:07:26.410 That has been fundamental to behavioral science. 03:07:26.630 --> 03:07:34.050 That the criminal is the because of some hereditary or cultivated problem that he 03:07:34.050 --> 03:07:35.730 has, a violation with the law of God. 03:07:35.790 --> 03:07:37.750 But it's because his environment hasn't been right. 03:07:38.130 --> 03:07:43.490 And if you change the environment and make it a utopian, and the communists, 03:07:43.650 --> 03:07:46.270 you know, we're all going to live together, equal wealth. 03:07:46.430 --> 03:07:48.630 Wealth won't be something that separates anybody. 03:07:48.850 --> 03:07:50.510 We'll create this superman. 03:07:51.050 --> 03:07:55.790 We'll marshal all of the environment to create a superhuman being. 03:07:55.990 --> 03:07:59.010 I'm going to be accused of being a racist and saying this, but this was the 03:07:59.010 --> 03:08:05.250 rationale given in the recent Los Angeles riots, is taking all the blame off the 03:08:05.250 --> 03:08:06.750 people and putting it on the environment. 03:08:07.010 --> 03:08:08.950 And we are responsible for this. 03:08:09.010 --> 03:08:09.790 It's our fault. 03:08:10.950 --> 03:08:14.490 Because the environment, if we would just help the environment and pour money, 03:08:14.550 --> 03:08:17.010 pour money, pour money, just pour more money into it. 03:08:17.570 --> 03:08:20.870 We had a book to read. 03:08:22.210 --> 03:08:23.570 Let me tell you this, John. 03:08:23.730 --> 03:08:27.670 I had a Marxist professor at the seminary, believe it or not. 03:08:28.030 --> 03:08:32.570 I sat in his class day after day, and there are a number of other students, 03:08:33.790 --> 03:08:36.970 and they were giving him static all along the way. 03:08:37.090 --> 03:08:42.390 He was attacking Protestant concepts, Seventh-day Adventist concepts, 03:08:42.790 --> 03:08:44.810 all of this, and elevating this socialism. 03:08:45.850 --> 03:08:50.190 And we had to read a book for the class that said, it was written by a radical 03:08:50.190 --> 03:08:54.930 from the late 60s, one of the student protest leaders of that era, who had now 03:08:54.930 --> 03:08:55.730 become a professor. 03:08:56.250 --> 03:09:00.550 And he said, if we gave each of the people in the ghetto $1,000, then that would 03:09:00.550 --> 03:09:02.410 really solve the problem. 03:09:02.690 --> 03:09:06.050 And the title of the book was, Blaming the Victim. 03:09:06.350 --> 03:09:11.610 Well, I was so disturbed about it, that one night I got up about 3 o'clock in 03:09:11.610 --> 03:09:15.630 the morning, and I got out my Baker's Dictionary of Christian Ethics, 03:09:15.650 --> 03:09:20.310 and I looked up Marxism, and it fit exactly what we had been taught in class. 03:09:20.650 --> 03:09:21.650 Marxism, absolutely. 03:09:22.350 --> 03:09:24.490 Notice this, 136. 03:09:24.590 --> 03:09:28.910 The underlying premise is the idea of Helvetius that by establishing an 03:09:28.910 --> 03:09:33.170 environment which makes social behavior a natural instinct, socialism will enable 03:09:33.170 --> 03:09:36.030 man to realize his potential to the fullest. 03:09:36.530 --> 03:09:42.730 Notice socialism, and full human potential, and Roman Catholic law, 03:09:43.010 --> 03:09:43.850 order of reason. 03:09:43.950 --> 03:09:48.790 This is how Marx and Lenin both established socialism, was by telling the 03:09:48.790 --> 03:09:51.930 people that they would alleviate all of these problems if they would just all 03:09:51.930 --> 03:09:52.810 share and share alike. 03:09:53.350 --> 03:09:56.750 And Marx wrote a book entitled, The Holy Family. 03:09:56.990 --> 03:09:58.230 Have you ever heard that before? 03:09:58.650 --> 03:10:00.330 Right out of Roman Catholicism? 03:10:00.710 --> 03:10:02.390 That term, anyway. 03:10:03.410 --> 03:10:08.730 And he wrote this in 1844, 1845, and here is what he said, The whole 03:10:08.730 --> 03:10:11.930 development of man depends on education and environment. 03:10:12.510 --> 03:10:15.070 If man draws all his knowledge, sensations, etc. 03:10:15.070 --> 03:10:18.770 from the world of the senses, and the experience gained in it, the empirical 03:10:18.770 --> 03:10:23.310 world must be arranged so that in it man experiences and gets used to what is 03:10:23.310 --> 03:10:24.050 really human. 03:10:25.750 --> 03:10:27.390 Remember that in natural law? 03:10:28.150 --> 03:10:32.070 You have to study the mind and experience of man to see what is really human. 03:10:32.650 --> 03:10:36.770 If man is shaped by his surroundings, his surroundings must be made human. 03:10:37.930 --> 03:10:39.010 Alright, this is communism. 03:10:39.210 --> 03:10:40.990 This is the philosophy of communism now. 03:10:41.670 --> 03:10:46.730 Now, I wanted to take a look here, John, at this book once again. 03:10:47.390 --> 03:10:49.210 Karl Marx and the Internationale. 03:10:51.110 --> 03:10:57.590 In this book, William still tells about how the Soviet Revolution was financed by 03:10:57.590 --> 03:10:58.710 American bankers. 03:10:59.190 --> 03:11:00.150 Wait, what? 03:11:00.710 --> 03:11:02.710 The Soviet Revolution? 03:11:02.990 --> 03:11:05.930 Was financed by American bankers. 03:11:06.250 --> 03:11:08.130 American bankers were connected with the Masons. 03:11:09.690 --> 03:11:13.830 And you see, they were not worried about what the communists were doing because 03:11:13.830 --> 03:11:15.150 they were pulling the strings. 03:11:15.630 --> 03:11:21.110 Lenin, after, he quotes in here what Lenin said after he took control. 03:11:21.710 --> 03:11:25.070 After Lenin took power, this is page 142 in New World Order. 03:11:26.070 --> 03:11:30.670 After Lenin took power, he slowly began to understand that he was not really pulling 03:11:30.670 --> 03:11:31.410 all the strings. 03:11:32.050 --> 03:11:34.970 Someone else was silently in control of the Soviet nation. 03:11:35.370 --> 03:11:38.950 Lenin lamented, quote, the state does not function as we desired. 03:11:39.050 --> 03:11:39.830 How does it function? 03:11:39.970 --> 03:11:41.190 The car does not obey. 03:11:41.470 --> 03:11:45.050 A man is at the wheel and seems to lead it, but the car does not drive in the 03:11:45.050 --> 03:11:45.730 desired direction. 03:11:45.830 --> 03:11:48.890 It moves as another force wishes. 03:11:49.350 --> 03:11:53.170 So Lenin even recognized that there were satanic forces out there. 03:11:53.550 --> 03:11:53.930 Beyond him. 03:11:54.150 --> 03:11:56.830 Beyond him and the supernatural that he could not control. 03:11:57.110 --> 03:11:59.090 This is a heavily documented book. 03:11:59.530 --> 03:12:03.330 Now do you think he was referring to supernatural forces or forces out there 03:12:03.330 --> 03:12:09.850 such as the Illuminati and the Jesuits? 03:12:09.890 --> 03:12:10.970 I don't know that he knew. 03:12:11.370 --> 03:12:14.230 He just knew there was something out there that he had no control over. 03:12:14.350 --> 03:12:15.630 Let me read you something here, John. 03:12:17.170 --> 03:12:21.250 He, like Hitler, had a high regard for the Jesuits. 03:12:22.150 --> 03:12:25.070 Page 26 of the book The Jesuits by Malachi Martin. 03:12:26.630 --> 03:12:30.830 Lenin swore at the end of his life that he would not if he had had 12 men like one of 03:12:30.830 --> 03:12:34.070 those early Jesuits, his communism would have swept the world. 03:12:34.990 --> 03:12:36.830 He had a high regard for the Jesuits. 03:12:36.950 --> 03:12:42.550 He took a man who had been training to be a Catholic priest, Dzerzhinsky, 03:12:42.550 --> 03:12:45.870 who became a communist in the Catholic seminary and was expelled. 03:12:46.730 --> 03:12:51.010 He took that man and made him the head of the Chekhov, which is the head, 03:12:51.510 --> 03:12:55.950 the precursor of the KGB, the counterintelligence operation. 03:12:56.470 --> 03:13:05.670 At any rate, in here, Stalin himself, Stalin now, was enrolled in school to 03:13:05.670 --> 03:13:08.050 become a priest at the theological seminary. 03:13:08.830 --> 03:13:13.050 And he soon found that the seminary was honeycombed with secret societies. 03:13:14.050 --> 03:13:16.750 How do you know Stalin studied to be a priest, a Catholic priest? 03:13:16.750 --> 03:13:18.050 Page 143. 03:13:18.110 --> 03:13:19.890 Who financed Lenin and Trotsky? 03:13:20.270 --> 03:13:23.950 The evidence points to a variety of European and American financiers. 03:13:24.370 --> 03:13:28.450 One German responsible for the financing of the Bolshevik Revolution was Max 03:13:28.450 --> 03:13:32.510 Warburg, the brother of American Paul Warburg, the prime mover in establishing 03:13:32.510 --> 03:13:33.010 the U.S. 03:13:33.090 --> 03:13:34.170 Federal Reserve System. 03:13:34.470 --> 03:13:36.210 We talked about that in Jesuit Agenda 2. 03:13:36.750 --> 03:13:41.670 Max ran a Rothschild-allied family bank in Frankfurt, Germany, and was the head of 03:13:41.670 --> 03:13:44.010 the German secret police during World War I. 03:13:44.490 --> 03:13:54.390 He goes on to tell about how John Schiff, the old man in America, who sank $20 03:13:54.390 --> 03:13:57.870 million for the final triumph of Bolshevism in Russia. 03:13:58.970 --> 03:14:04.330 This man goes on to document how we not only financed the Russian Revolution, 03:14:04.910 --> 03:14:08.630 but we gave them the secrets of the atomic bomb. 03:14:09.270 --> 03:14:12.870 I've heard that for years, that we gave them the secrets of the atomic bomb. 03:14:13.010 --> 03:14:14.390 Look at the evidence in here. 03:14:14.430 --> 03:14:14.590 Why? 03:14:14.690 --> 03:14:16.710 Why would we want to give them the secrets of the atomic bomb? 03:14:16.710 --> 03:14:18.230 We sent them plutonium. 03:14:18.370 --> 03:14:19.510 The United States? 03:14:19.670 --> 03:14:20.110 Yes. 03:14:20.410 --> 03:14:20.610 Russia? 03:14:20.810 --> 03:14:21.270 Plutonium? 03:14:21.330 --> 03:14:21.590 Yes. 03:14:21.870 --> 03:14:24.530 We gave them the secrets and wanted them to build the atomic bomb? 03:14:24.690 --> 03:14:24.790 Yes. 03:14:24.870 --> 03:14:25.230 Why? 03:14:25.330 --> 03:14:26.830 Why would we want them to do that? 03:14:26.970 --> 03:14:31.290 Because there was another agency interested in ultimate global domination. 03:14:31.390 --> 03:14:33.150 They were interested in this experiment in Russia. 03:14:33.150 --> 03:14:36.350 We've got to realize that we're not dealing with just countries here. 03:14:36.450 --> 03:14:41.990 We're dealing with a global sinister force that is orchestrating world governments 03:14:41.990 --> 03:14:46.110 for a much bigger picture than what we see just from country to country. 03:14:46.450 --> 03:14:50.830 So we're talking about forces that are controlling the whole world, not just 03:14:50.830 --> 03:14:51.830 individual countries. 03:14:52.230 --> 03:14:54.050 Let me read to you out of 166 here. 03:14:54.150 --> 03:15:02.130 He's discussing the papers, the report that was sent to Russia. 03:15:03.330 --> 03:15:07.290 The text of the report, let's see, clipped to this note to Molotov from Harry 03:15:07.290 --> 03:15:10.970 Hopkins, was a large map which bore the legend Oak Ridge, Manhattan Engineering 03:15:10.970 --> 03:15:15.230 District, and a carbon copy of a report from Oak Ridge with the name Harry Hopkins 03:15:15.230 --> 03:15:18.770 typed on it, as though it was a copy specifically prepared for Hopkins. 03:15:18.890 --> 03:15:22.890 The text of the report contained words Major Jordan was unfamiliar with then, 03:15:23.270 --> 03:15:24.370 but which we all know today. 03:15:24.450 --> 03:15:27.710 Among them were uranium, cyclotron, proton, and deuteron. 03:15:28.490 --> 03:15:33.730 Of course, Colonel Kotakov, that's the Russian here in America, was furious with 03:15:33.730 --> 03:15:37.410 Major Jordan when Jordan began finding out about these things, you see. 03:15:37.910 --> 03:15:41.230 And Jordan assumed he would be fired, but surprisingly he was allowed to stay 03:15:41.230 --> 03:15:41.590 on. 03:15:42.010 --> 03:15:45.510 Although Jordan reported everything that had transpired to the intelligence section 03:15:45.510 --> 03:15:47.890 of the Air Force, he heard nothing in return. 03:15:48.810 --> 03:15:54.790 And there was an extra special consignment in April of 1943, notice that's during the 03:15:54.790 --> 03:15:57.670 war, of what he called experimental chemicals. 03:15:58.850 --> 03:16:05.730 And dropping down here, after his conversation was terminated with the 03:16:05.730 --> 03:16:09.690 infamous Harry Hopkins, Jordan asked Colonel Kotakov what the name of this 03:16:09.690 --> 03:16:10.930 important chemical was. 03:16:11.050 --> 03:16:15.290 Colonel Kotakov went to his desk and pulled from a folder marked bomb powder a 03:16:15.290 --> 03:16:19.070 sheet of paper and showed Major Jordan a word he had first seen the previous month 03:16:19.070 --> 03:16:21.350 in the black leather suitcase, uranium. 03:16:22.410 --> 03:16:25.890 Jordan wrote, this shipment was the one and only cash item to pass through my 03:16:25.890 --> 03:16:29.170 hands except for private Russian purchases of clothing and liquor. 03:16:29.330 --> 03:16:33.170 It was the only one out of a tremendous multitude of consignments that I was 03:16:33.170 --> 03:16:35.410 ordered not to enter on my tally sheets. 03:16:36.190 --> 03:16:39.730 It was the only one I was forbidden to discuss with my superiors and the only one 03:16:39.730 --> 03:16:42.070 I was directed to keep secret from everybody. 03:16:42.530 --> 03:16:49.470 And so he tells in here how it came in 15 wooden cases and the cases were trucked to 03:16:49.470 --> 03:16:53.510 the air base at Great Falls, Montana, took off for Fairbanks without a hitch. 03:16:55.930 --> 03:16:59.810 And at Fairbanks one box fell from the plane smashing a corner and spilling a 03:16:59.810 --> 03:17:01.630 small quantity of chocolate brown powder. 03:17:02.010 --> 03:17:06.310 Out of curiosity a soldier there picked up a handful of the unfamiliar grains with a 03:17:06.310 --> 03:17:07.890 notion of asking somebody what they were. 03:17:08.030 --> 03:17:11.770 A Soviet officer slapped the crystals from his palm and explained nervously, 03:17:11.950 --> 03:17:13.310 no, no, burn hands. 03:17:14.310 --> 03:17:20.070 Totally three consignments of uranium chemicals, 1465 pounds or nearly three 03:17:20.070 --> 03:17:22.170 quarters of a ton were shipped to the Soviet Union. 03:17:22.530 --> 03:17:27.070 In addition, one kilogram or 2.2 pounds of uranium metal was shipped at a time when 03:17:27.070 --> 03:17:29.790 the total American stock was 4.5 pounds. 03:17:30.070 --> 03:17:32.530 We sent them almost half of our stock. 03:17:33.550 --> 03:17:36.250 Major Jordan also, and this is all documented material. 03:17:36.270 --> 03:17:38.670 Truth is stranger than fiction, I'm convinced of that. 03:17:39.090 --> 03:17:42.610 Major Jordan also documented in his meticulous style that even a thousand 03:17:42.610 --> 03:17:47.750 grams of precious deuterium oxide or heavy water was sold to the Soviets in November 03:17:47.750 --> 03:17:48.530 1943. 03:17:49.250 --> 03:17:51.390 And the Jesuits were behind this? 03:17:51.850 --> 03:17:52.490 The Masons. 03:17:53.010 --> 03:17:54.770 Which was the arm of the Jesuits. 03:17:55.890 --> 03:17:59.270 Yes, I want to now pull some things together here. 03:18:00.590 --> 03:18:00.670 And the purpose was? 03:18:00.670 --> 03:18:01.450 And the purpose was? 03:18:01.530 --> 03:18:06.170 Well, we were financing, we were aiding Russia. 03:18:06.310 --> 03:18:10.770 Of course at that time Russia was our ally in war against Germany. 03:18:10.770 --> 03:18:11.150 Right. 03:18:11.550 --> 03:18:17.830 But the point of all of this that William still is making is that the Masons were 03:18:17.830 --> 03:18:24.790 carrying on their plan for a global order in which there would be this social 03:18:24.790 --> 03:18:30.570 engineering of creating an environment to create a certain kind of human being. 03:18:31.050 --> 03:18:32.090 A new world order. 03:18:32.210 --> 03:18:33.670 To create a new world order. 03:18:33.810 --> 03:18:37.890 And the Russian Revolution was an experiment to accomplish that. 03:18:38.330 --> 03:18:40.710 Now, we discussed about family feuds, John. 03:18:40.930 --> 03:18:45.630 You notice now how we've been talking about how the Templars were feuding with 03:18:45.630 --> 03:18:46.250 the Papacy. 03:18:47.290 --> 03:18:53.570 And something interesting develops in this book here toward the end. 03:18:54.730 --> 03:18:57.110 Right after Vatican II. 03:18:57.210 --> 03:18:58.290 You hear about that, John? 03:19:00.590 --> 03:19:07.450 In 1967, high officials of both Craft and Scottish Rite Masonry actually sat down at 03:19:07.450 --> 03:19:11.970 the table with major leaders of the Knights of Columbus to discuss their 03:19:11.970 --> 03:19:16.190 common goals of morality, patriotism, and law and order. 03:19:16.930 --> 03:19:20.770 So, there was a real coming together right after Vatican II. 03:19:21.170 --> 03:19:24.430 Not only in all these other dimensions that we've been talking about, 03:19:24.810 --> 03:19:30.910 but between the ancient Knights Templar, who are the Masons now, and the Knights of 03:19:30.910 --> 03:19:36.150 Columbus to discuss common goal 332 in the book Born in Blood. 03:19:37.850 --> 03:19:40.350 So, what does it all mean? 03:19:40.850 --> 03:19:42.330 Now, what happened to our people? 03:19:42.530 --> 03:19:43.470 Let me ask you, John. 03:19:44.250 --> 03:19:49.270 Here we have, and I must grab here Malachi Martin's book, because Malachi ties a lot 03:19:49.270 --> 03:19:49.810 of this together. 03:19:51.170 --> 03:19:51.810 Gramsciism. 03:19:52.250 --> 03:19:53.150 Who is Gramsci? 03:19:53.250 --> 03:19:59.530 Antonio Gramsci was an Italian communist who said that the way Lenin is approaching 03:19:59.530 --> 03:20:05.410 the communist revolution will never work, because Christianity has in it a seed of 03:20:05.410 --> 03:20:06.890 resistance against it. 03:20:07.030 --> 03:20:14.690 We have to destroy and secularize Christianity in order to have the 03:20:14.690 --> 03:20:19.970 communist revolution spread over the world, and we must use the intelligence 03:20:19.970 --> 03:20:25.410 community to accomplish this through peaceful means. 03:20:25.930 --> 03:20:31.110 Through boardrooms, through political parties, through parliaments, through 03:20:31.110 --> 03:20:33.730 political parties, through parliament, through We must advance the cause of 03:20:33.730 --> 03:20:36.850 international socialism in this way. 03:20:37.490 --> 03:20:42.810 Now, what Malachi Martin tells us in page after page here as he discusses Gramsciism 03:20:42.810 --> 03:20:48.990 in his book, Keys of This Blood, is that the Roman Catholic Church absorbed 03:20:48.990 --> 03:20:55.730 this Gramsciism, and Gorbachev is the ultimate example of Gramsciism in action, 03:20:56.270 --> 03:21:01.170 willing to even sacrifice the Russian territorial integrity, the USSR 03:21:01.170 --> 03:21:06.530 territorial integrity, for the cause of the principle of what they were about. 03:21:07.390 --> 03:21:11.450 And notice the close connection between Gorbachev and the Pope, how they work 03:21:11.450 --> 03:21:17.870 together, and in here, in Keys of This Blood, Malachi Martin says that the Roman 03:21:17.870 --> 03:21:24.890 Catholic Church took on this Gramsciism, and then became the midwife and wet nurse 03:21:24.890 --> 03:21:30.030 for promoting secularism in America, to accomplish this same purpose. 03:21:31.810 --> 03:21:34.410 Now, what happened to our believers? 03:21:35.150 --> 03:21:43.210 If the Russian experiment is a prototype of what may be coming to some extent 03:21:43.210 --> 03:21:47.910 around the world with collectivism, with the outworking of natural law, 03:21:48.450 --> 03:21:55.030 in a benign form now, penetrating all over, developing a collectivism with the 03:21:55.030 --> 03:21:59.190 Roman Catholic Church having promoted it, and now the Roman Catholic Church having 03:21:59.190 --> 03:22:04.670 promoted a secularism to destroy the American Protestantism, and bringing in 03:22:04.670 --> 03:22:07.750 concepts of natural law, what does the future hold? 03:22:07.810 --> 03:22:10.190 What happened to our believers in Russia? 03:22:10.270 --> 03:22:11.430 I want to grab a book here. 03:22:11.450 --> 03:22:19.330 Well, I know for a fact that, from what I've heard from eyewitnesses and people 03:22:19.330 --> 03:22:24.450 that have come back from Russia since the Iron Curtain has come down, that our true 03:22:24.450 --> 03:22:28.190 Seventh-day Adventist Church in Russia has been underground for years. 03:22:28.450 --> 03:22:33.330 That what is above ground is the organized church in Russia is a fake. 03:22:33.530 --> 03:22:34.270 It's a phony. 03:22:34.390 --> 03:22:35.170 It's a counterfeit. 03:22:35.350 --> 03:22:37.490 That's not the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Russia. 03:22:37.790 --> 03:22:41.510 Well, what happened in Russia is most significant for us. 03:22:41.650 --> 03:22:44.870 Here is a book entitled, True Witness, John, the story of Seventh-day Adventists 03:22:44.870 --> 03:22:47.630 in the Soviet Union by Marie Sapietz. 03:22:48.970 --> 03:22:51.130 Is this written by a Seventh-day Adventist? 03:22:51.150 --> 03:22:52.470 Non-Seventh-day Adventist. 03:22:52.530 --> 03:22:57.570 She's from Keston College, and Keston College in England has studied the 03:22:57.570 --> 03:23:02.410 experience of Christians in the Eastern Bloc nations under Communism. 03:23:02.870 --> 03:23:05.490 And she chose to write a book on Seventh-day Adventists. 03:23:05.490 --> 03:23:07.030 Seventh-day Adventism. 03:23:07.150 --> 03:23:13.690 The true Seventh-day Adventists were enormously influential in pushing for 03:23:13.690 --> 03:23:14.090 freedom. 03:23:14.990 --> 03:23:17.910 Just to mention something here. 03:23:17.970 --> 03:23:19.630 Well, let me give you a little history first, John. 03:23:19.770 --> 03:23:26.590 In 1929, that's about a little over a decade after the Bolshevik Revolution, 03:23:27.570 --> 03:23:31.090 a law was passed on religious associations in Russia. 03:23:32.090 --> 03:23:36.790 And the upshot of that was that the mainline Adventist Church decided to, 03:23:37.270 --> 03:23:43.990 as she documents, and here she quotes right from their document, decided to go 03:23:43.990 --> 03:23:49.890 along with the Russian military, sending their young men in, not making any 03:23:49.890 --> 03:23:53.870 provisos about non-combatancy or anything like that. 03:23:53.950 --> 03:23:58.090 They would kill and they would violate the Sabbath and all of that. 03:23:58.190 --> 03:24:01.050 And then there was a group of Seventh-day Adventists that said, no, we cannot break 03:24:01.050 --> 03:24:02.690 the Fourth or Sixth Commandment. 03:24:03.270 --> 03:24:07.290 And they became known as the true and faithful Seventh-day Adventists. 03:24:08.130 --> 03:24:11.990 They were the ones then that stood for conscience through thick and thin. 03:24:12.290 --> 03:24:17.570 And their leader of them was a man named Vladimir Shchelkov. 03:24:18.490 --> 03:24:25.130 And in his memoirs, Andrei Sakharov tells of how he went to the trial of Shchelkov. 03:24:25.850 --> 03:24:29.630 Shchelkov was an enormously spiritually powerful man. 03:24:30.170 --> 03:24:32.850 And he was an inspiration to Sakharov. 03:24:32.930 --> 03:24:37.210 Sakharov worked on developing the bomb, the hydrogen bomb in Russia. 03:24:37.550 --> 03:24:38.870 A great physicist. 03:24:39.830 --> 03:24:42.110 And he went to the trial of Shchelkov. 03:24:42.390 --> 03:24:46.290 It was a religious trial because of Shchelkov's convictions. 03:24:47.310 --> 03:24:48.770 He was not allowed to come in. 03:24:48.830 --> 03:24:54.110 But that gives us the idea of the international stature that Shchelkov had. 03:24:54.510 --> 03:25:00.870 Shchelkov spent decades in prison camps, in concentration camps. 03:25:01.210 --> 03:25:06.550 And I have heard it said that the members of the people, inmates in the 03:25:06.550 --> 03:25:11.990 concentration camps, would always know when Friday evening came and when sundown 03:25:11.990 --> 03:25:16.570 came because they would hear the screams of those Adventists who would refuse to 03:25:16.570 --> 03:25:22.250 work and would be put to torture at that time when sundown came Friday evening. 03:25:22.450 --> 03:25:25.130 We take the same Seventh-day Adventists for granted. 03:25:25.270 --> 03:25:28.270 We take this wonderful truth we have for granted. 03:25:28.670 --> 03:25:32.150 I tell you, if some of us were going through what the true and faithful have 03:25:32.150 --> 03:25:36.410 gone through for years, we would know what it really means to be Seventh-day 03:25:36.410 --> 03:25:37.090 Adventists. 03:25:37.310 --> 03:25:43.670 Now, the main line Seventh-day Adventist church, their quote, registered church in 03:25:43.670 --> 03:25:48.790 Russia, began sending their kids to school on Sabbath even, whereas the true and free 03:25:48.790 --> 03:25:51.170 faithful would not do that, you see. 03:25:51.570 --> 03:25:56.770 It was a matter of whether the orientation to God will be supreme or the orientation 03:25:56.770 --> 03:25:58.030 to the state will be supreme. 03:25:58.030 --> 03:25:59.090 It was all coming down to. 03:25:59.090 --> 03:26:06.150 Now, on page 263 of this book, True Witness, we read about some of the 03:26:06.150 --> 03:26:09.370 visitors that came to the Soviet Union in the late seventies. 03:26:09.670 --> 03:26:15.670 What is so significant to us about what the experience in Russia is, how did the 03:26:15.670 --> 03:26:19.190 various Adventist bodies relate to the state and relate to God? 03:26:19.650 --> 03:26:24.570 Was God viewed as an inalienable relationship that couldn't be sacrificed 03:26:24.570 --> 03:26:26.130 in any way, shape or form? 03:26:26.750 --> 03:26:31.990 Or was religious liberty to be fitted in around the law of the state, like what we 03:26:31.990 --> 03:26:34.410 discussed with the Jesuit concept of natural law? 03:26:34.470 --> 03:26:37.990 I think it's very significant that we find out, because you see up until this time, 03:26:38.330 --> 03:26:42.170 as long as the Iron Curtain was up, we had no idea what was really going on in 03:26:42.170 --> 03:26:44.210 the Soviet Union with our Adventist people. 03:26:44.410 --> 03:26:48.790 But now that we have some freedom to know that they have some freedom to get out and 03:26:48.790 --> 03:26:51.950 get the information out, I think it's very significant that our Adventist people here 03:26:51.950 --> 03:26:55.830 in America find out what the true and faithful Adventist in Russia went through, 03:26:56.070 --> 03:26:57.930 because Bob, I believe we're about the same thing. 03:26:57.970 --> 03:27:02.070 We are already in the same situation, and the Church is splitting down the same 03:27:02.070 --> 03:27:06.270 lines on the same philosophical, theological issues. 03:27:06.430 --> 03:27:07.210 How did they deal with it? 03:27:07.290 --> 03:27:13.710 Will the Lord God of Heaven be our ultimate norm, and will we refuse to bow, 03:27:13.910 --> 03:27:17.070 or will we bow and have religious liberty after bowing? 03:27:17.330 --> 03:27:22.070 You see, here on page 263 of True Witness, the story of Seventh-day Adventists in the 03:27:22.070 --> 03:27:22.710 Soviet Union. 03:27:23.470 --> 03:27:29.850 Read about what happened in the late 70s and following when General Conference men 03:27:29.850 --> 03:27:31.650 began coming into Russia. 03:27:31.950 --> 03:27:33.750 Dr. Burt Beech, you remember him? 03:27:34.270 --> 03:27:34.870 Oh yes. 03:27:35.070 --> 03:27:41.450 Who visited the USSR in June of 1977, repeated uncritically the statements of 03:27:41.450 --> 03:27:44.490 Soviet officials concerning the existence of religious liberty. 03:27:44.930 --> 03:27:47.850 See, the Soviet officials would say, we've got religious liberty in Russia, 03:27:48.070 --> 03:27:51.550 and in their Constitution they provide for religious liberty. 03:27:51.770 --> 03:27:56.790 But, they say if the state security is threatened, then, you know, the individual 03:27:56.790 --> 03:27:59.710 right has to be suspended in the name of state security. 03:28:00.470 --> 03:28:05.290 That same thing has happened, of course, in America, where the rights of Japanese 03:28:05.290 --> 03:28:11.330 Americans on the eve of World War II, they were put in concentration camps under 03:28:11.330 --> 03:28:17.450 the preamble of the Constitution that is for the common good, for the protection of 03:28:17.450 --> 03:28:18.090 the common good. 03:28:19.390 --> 03:28:22.990 Anyway, Beech repeated uncritically the statements of Soviet officials concerning 03:28:22.990 --> 03:28:27.010 the existence of religious liberty, sometimes reproducing even the original 03:28:27.010 --> 03:28:27.970 phraseology. 03:28:28.730 --> 03:28:32.390 Although he himself admitted that religious freedom in the USSR was limited 03:28:32.390 --> 03:28:36.410 to worship in registered churches and excluded almost any other form of 03:28:36.410 --> 03:28:40.810 religious activity, Dr. Beech also asserted that, quote, believers have many 03:28:40.810 --> 03:28:45.530 opportunities for the practice of their religion as long as such practice does not 03:28:45.530 --> 03:28:47.350 violate Soviet law, end quote. 03:28:47.950 --> 03:28:51.290 He then gave a list of such violations which included, quote, playing on 03:28:51.290 --> 03:28:53.930 superstition, illegal printing enterprises. 03:28:54.070 --> 03:28:58.290 You see, the underground True and Free Adventists got a hold of a printing press 03:28:58.290 --> 03:29:01.230 and the KGB could not locate it. 03:29:01.390 --> 03:29:04.370 And they printed material and send it all over. 03:29:04.410 --> 03:29:05.690 Bless their hearts, amen. 03:29:06.090 --> 03:29:07.650 Slandering the Soviet system. 03:29:07.790 --> 03:29:12.550 See, the True and Free were accused of that because they went to the Helsinki 03:29:12.550 --> 03:29:18.930 watch groups and the meetings in Madrid, the meetings monitoring religious liberty 03:29:18.930 --> 03:29:23.470 in Russia, and they sent in reports of how they were being dragged before courts, 03:29:23.550 --> 03:29:26.730 how they were having their children taken away from them, how they were being 03:29:26.730 --> 03:29:31.450 persecuted by the KGB for standing for their convictions. 03:29:31.670 --> 03:29:34.510 And that's exactly what the independent ministries are to do with our Adventist 03:29:34.510 --> 03:29:34.810 people. 03:29:35.090 --> 03:29:38.510 They are the only ones that are letting our Adventist people know what is really 03:29:38.510 --> 03:29:42.090 going on, what the denominational structure is really doing against the True 03:29:42.090 --> 03:29:42.610 and Faithful. 03:29:42.690 --> 03:29:45.930 And if it wasn't for the Adventists, if it wasn't for the independent 03:29:45.930 --> 03:29:50.070 ministries that God has raised up to let our Adventist people know what is really 03:29:50.070 --> 03:29:53.210 going on, they would be totally in the dark, thinking that the structure was just 03:29:53.210 --> 03:29:57.330 doing wonderful things and having no idea of the sinister underbelly of our 03:29:57.330 --> 03:29:58.310 denominational structure. 03:29:58.610 --> 03:29:58.850 Yes. 03:29:59.230 --> 03:30:05.730 So, see, the Registered Church and the General Conference attacked the True and 03:30:05.730 --> 03:30:10.570 Free Faithful for slandering the Soviet system because they told about what was 03:30:10.570 --> 03:30:14.450 really going on, and the persecution they were enduring for having illegal printing 03:30:14.450 --> 03:30:20.050 enterprises, and, quote, refusing to abide by the rules of Soviet society. 03:30:20.430 --> 03:30:26.930 So, see, you can see from that that the Mainline Church, or the Registered Church, 03:30:27.330 --> 03:30:32.070 took the position that we have to first fit in with the rules of Soviet society. 03:30:32.250 --> 03:30:36.330 If the Soviet society says our children must go to school on Sabbath, we send our 03:30:36.330 --> 03:30:39.730 kids to school on Sabbath, and then we have religious liberty after that. 03:30:39.790 --> 03:30:40.170 That's right. 03:30:40.170 --> 03:30:45.630 Whereas the True and Free Adventists said, we will have the inalienable rights given 03:30:45.630 --> 03:30:49.410 us by God, and we will practice our religious liberty according to the Gospel 03:30:49.410 --> 03:30:52.490 Commission, regardless of Soviet law. 03:30:52.510 --> 03:30:54.750 And what does the organization, and what does the structure say? 03:30:54.930 --> 03:30:59.230 That if these dissidents do not go along, they are the ones who are causing us 03:30:59.230 --> 03:31:04.270 problems with fitting into the norm here, and they must be exterminated. 03:31:05.110 --> 03:31:09.630 He didn't, he, Beach, did not explain that such charges could be used against any 03:31:09.630 --> 03:31:14.370 kind of religious activities, and gave no examples of persons who had committed the 03:31:14.370 --> 03:31:18.230 crimes, but merely stated that, quote, a serious religious liberty dilemma 03:31:18.230 --> 03:31:22.490 could arise if there were a conflict of conscience between the requirements of 03:31:22.490 --> 03:31:24.550 belief and the dictates of law, end quote. 03:31:24.910 --> 03:31:30.130 Dr. Beach gave no indication that this dilemma already existed, not only among 03:31:30.130 --> 03:31:32.910 Adventists, but in all the churches of the Soviet Union. 03:31:33.370 --> 03:31:39.010 He went on to make a wholly artificial distinction between Russian and American 03:31:39.010 --> 03:31:44.830 concepts of liberty, asserting that Soviet citizens had collective economic and 03:31:44.830 --> 03:31:50.070 social rights, but not freedom to oppose the social order or criticize the 03:31:50.070 --> 03:31:54.510 established socio-political structures, a right apparently reserved for 03:31:54.510 --> 03:31:55.250 Westerners. 03:31:55.710 --> 03:31:56.410 Very interesting. 03:31:57.270 --> 03:32:01.330 He thus dismissed the whole problem of individual civil rights as somehow 03:32:01.330 --> 03:32:05.510 relevant only in Western countries, and seemed to accept the Soviet 03:32:05.510 --> 03:32:08.410 government's right to forbid criticism or opposition. 03:32:09.390 --> 03:32:14.270 In so doing, Dr. Beach also ignored completely the existence of native Russian 03:32:14.270 --> 03:32:19.030 movements for human and religious rights, including that of the true and free 03:32:19.030 --> 03:32:19.630 Adventists. 03:32:20.010 --> 03:32:23.230 Although Western Adventists have stressed the necessity of acquainting themselves 03:32:23.230 --> 03:32:27.630 with Soviet laws before visiting the USSR, they have only occasionally made any 03:32:27.630 --> 03:32:31.730 effort in their press articles to explain whether the either the Soviet Constitution 03:32:31.730 --> 03:32:35.170 or the laws on religion in a clear and precise manner. 03:32:36.330 --> 03:32:39.330 You know, when BB Beach gave that medallion to the Pope in 1972, 03:32:39.670 --> 03:32:44.890 and he presented Pope John Paul II with that medallion, there was no video made of 03:32:44.890 --> 03:32:45.030 that. 03:32:45.090 --> 03:32:47.310 We have no video of that. 03:32:47.430 --> 03:32:48.690 I would love to have a video of that. 03:32:48.770 --> 03:32:53.630 I just wonder, Bob, if BB Beach kissed the ring of the Pope when he gave him that 03:32:53.630 --> 03:32:54.290 medallion. 03:32:54.310 --> 03:33:02.410 We don't know that, but at any rate, this shows us that the Church divided. 03:33:02.770 --> 03:33:11.230 It split over this issue of will God come first or will we first obey Soviet law and 03:33:11.230 --> 03:33:12.770 then practice religious liberty. 03:33:12.970 --> 03:33:18.350 The second position is exactly the position of the Jesuit concept of natural 03:33:18.350 --> 03:33:18.750 law. 03:33:18.970 --> 03:33:24.510 First, you fit into the order of society, the law of society, and then you have your 03:33:24.510 --> 03:33:26.050 subjective rights after that. 03:33:26.330 --> 03:33:31.830 But the Protestant concept is you have inalienable rights, like in our Bill of 03:33:31.830 --> 03:33:37.290 Rights, that must be practiced first before God, regardless of the law of the 03:33:37.290 --> 03:33:37.550 state. 03:33:37.650 --> 03:33:39.370 We ought to obey God rather than men. 03:33:40.110 --> 03:33:43.210 Catholicism versus Protestantism, that's what it boils down to. 03:33:43.230 --> 03:33:47.470 Now, John, there's some very interesting things that have just come to my 03:33:47.470 --> 03:33:47.890 attention. 03:33:49.070 --> 03:33:51.590 In Izvestia, you know what that is? 03:33:51.710 --> 03:33:52.270 No, I don't. 03:33:52.370 --> 03:33:55.250 The Russian, the great Russian paper, Izvestia. 03:33:55.370 --> 03:33:56.190 Oh, Izvestia, okay. 03:33:56.670 --> 03:33:57.730 Is that like Tass? 03:33:58.010 --> 03:34:00.790 Yes, like Tass and Pravda, Izvestia. 03:34:01.470 --> 03:34:07.730 In April 23 of this year, I have... here's the Russian, if you want to follow along 03:34:07.730 --> 03:34:08.890 in that, John. 03:34:08.990 --> 03:34:11.530 Yes, I'll just follow right along. 03:34:11.970 --> 03:34:12.770 There's the Russian. 03:34:13.450 --> 03:34:21.610 Now, I'm going to read from this Izvestia that came out April 23 of 1992, 03:34:22.350 --> 03:34:28.730 has quotations right out of the KGB archives. 03:34:29.250 --> 03:34:32.570 You see, under Glasnost and Perestroika... Those things have been opened up. 03:34:32.990 --> 03:34:34.550 The archives have been opened up. 03:34:35.530 --> 03:34:42.470 And here, here we read in Izvestia, there's an article entitled, The Eternal 03:34:42.470 --> 03:34:44.030 Slave of the Cheka. 03:34:44.670 --> 03:34:47.630 Cheka, remember, was the precursor of the KGB. 03:34:47.890 --> 03:34:53.010 They still call the KGB officers Chekists in Russia. 03:34:54.050 --> 03:35:00.450 Eternal Slave of the Cheka by Polosin in Izvestia, 23 April 1992, page 3. 03:35:00.610 --> 03:35:06.390 Quote, Of a number of religious authors, clergy, and technical personnel, 03:35:07.030 --> 03:35:13.090 47 agents of the KGB, as a part of the religious delegation of the USSR, 03:35:13.830 --> 03:35:17.790 were sent to Vancouver, Canada, for the Sixth General Assembly of the 03:35:17.790 --> 03:35:19.670 Worldwide Council of Churches. 03:35:19.990 --> 03:35:25.190 So we have here now, from the KGB archives, we know that the Sixth General 03:35:25.190 --> 03:35:29.030 Assembly, the seventh was just held over in Australia, the Sixth General Assembly, 03:35:29.150 --> 03:35:37.990 a few years ago, had, in the religious delegation from the USSR, 47 KGB agents. 03:35:38.650 --> 03:35:41.530 All right, just keep that tucked under your head as we read along here. 03:35:42.610 --> 03:35:48.090 From the reports of the Fourth Department of the Fifth Directorate of the KGB of the 03:35:48.090 --> 03:35:55.090 USSR, that's where these are coming from now, in June of 1986, quote, work on the 03:35:55.090 --> 03:36:00.290 preparation and advancement of a meeting of the sectarian church, Belokrinitsky, 03:36:00.910 --> 03:36:04.310 at which will occur the selection of the head of this church. 03:36:05.290 --> 03:36:07.070 All right, you get the picture. 03:36:07.210 --> 03:36:08.690 Here is a sectarian church. 03:36:09.070 --> 03:36:11.510 They're going to be selecting the head of the church. 03:36:11.610 --> 03:36:13.250 It's June 1986. 03:36:14.230 --> 03:36:21.790 In connection with this, in 20 organs of the KGB, the UKGB conducted an orientation 03:36:21.790 --> 03:36:26.630 with the request for the support by all current means of the candidate preferred 03:36:26.630 --> 03:36:27.170 by us. 03:36:27.450 --> 03:36:28.230 So what are they doing? 03:36:28.590 --> 03:36:34.530 They're manipulating the election of the head of this religious sect in Russia 03:36:34.530 --> 03:36:38.590 using an enormous effort on the part of the KGB. 03:36:38.890 --> 03:36:40.710 20 organs of the KGB. 03:36:40.730 --> 03:36:42.370 Sounds like the general conference session. 03:36:43.030 --> 03:36:50.410 This is a KGB working in Russia in 1986, October 1986, quote, conjointly with the 03:36:50.410 --> 03:36:56.630 PGU of the KGB of the USSR, action was taken for the discrediting of the ring 03:36:56.630 --> 03:36:58.630 leader of the T.N. 03:36:59.210 --> 03:37:01.550 Karlovatsky church, Archbishop Vitalin. 03:37:01.850 --> 03:37:03.190 All right, here's a man they didn't like. 03:37:03.930 --> 03:37:06.170 So the KGB discredited him. 03:37:06.570 --> 03:37:08.550 Have you ever heard about people being discredited, John? 03:37:09.130 --> 03:37:11.410 Seems to me I have heard about that. 03:37:13.110 --> 03:37:14.150 November 1986. 03:37:14.310 --> 03:37:18.070 Now pay close attention to this one, John, because it deals with our church. 03:37:20.230 --> 03:37:25.350 Through the leading agency of a number of preachers, and let me give you, 03:37:25.490 --> 03:37:33.830 I got a direct translation on this over the telephone from a Russian speaker, 03:37:34.670 --> 03:37:37.150 a native Russian who knows languages. 03:37:38.710 --> 03:37:45.650 She gave me a very careful translation of this, a rather literal one, and I'll read 03:37:45.650 --> 03:37:46.050 it now here. 03:37:46.110 --> 03:37:51.430 Through the leading agency from among the ministers of S.D.A., that would be Seventh 03:37:51.430 --> 03:37:59.250 Day Adventists, in Tula there was a re-election of the senior minister, 03:37:59.310 --> 03:38:04.870 and she said it means the senior minister, the head of the church in the central 03:38:04.870 --> 03:38:06.530 region, that's of the USSR. 03:38:07.810 --> 03:38:14.610 As a result, to this position again was promoted agent Svetlov. 03:38:16.010 --> 03:38:24.010 Now agent Svetlov is a code name for a KGB agent who was re-elected to the position 03:38:24.010 --> 03:38:30.650 of being head of the Seventh Day Adventist Church in the central region of the USSR 03:38:30.650 --> 03:38:33.550 in November of 1986. 03:38:34.650 --> 03:38:39.030 The head of the Seventh Day Adventist Church in Russia was a KGB agent? 03:38:39.170 --> 03:38:46.870 Of the central region of the Seventh Day Adventist Registered Church in the USSR, 03:38:47.390 --> 03:38:55.750 the head of it of the central region was re-elected in 1986, and as a result to 03:38:55.750 --> 03:38:59.810 this position again was promoted agent Svetlov. 03:39:00.130 --> 03:39:01.310 Now who is agent Svetlov? 03:39:01.870 --> 03:39:06.470 How would you find out from circumstantial evidence who this man was? 03:39:06.690 --> 03:39:12.830 Well, we went to the Adventist yearbook to find out who the head of the central 03:39:12.830 --> 03:39:17.010 region of the USSR was both before and after this election. 03:39:19.150 --> 03:39:22.030 And Terry, look this up for me in the yearbook. 03:39:22.650 --> 03:39:27.790 1985, do you know who the head of the central region of the USSR was? 03:39:30.110 --> 03:39:30.810 Kulikov. 03:39:30.970 --> 03:39:31.490 Kulikov. 03:39:31.690 --> 03:39:32.290 Kulikov. 03:39:33.110 --> 03:39:40.330 In 1988, the next yearbook that we had, after that, Kulikov was still the 03:39:40.330 --> 03:39:41.870 president of the central region. 03:39:41.870 --> 03:39:43.850 Are you saying that Kulikov was a KGB agent? 03:39:45.050 --> 03:39:50.930 What I'm saying, John, is that the KGB archives say that in November 1986, 03:39:51.330 --> 03:39:56.970 the head of the central region was re-elected, and he was a KGB agent 03:39:56.970 --> 03:39:59.250 codenamed agent Svetlov. 03:39:59.370 --> 03:40:03.090 And according to the circumstantial evidence that we have from the yearbook, 03:40:03.590 --> 03:40:08.870 Kulikov was head of that region in 1985 and in 1988, both before and after the 03:40:08.870 --> 03:40:09.230 election. 03:40:09.230 --> 03:40:13.790 And according to verbal testimony from Seventh-day Adventists in Russia, 03:40:15.190 --> 03:40:23.490 it was Kulikov who was re-elected in November of 1986 to be the head of the 03:40:23.490 --> 03:40:26.370 central region of Seventh-day Adventists. 03:40:26.730 --> 03:40:31.550 So you're saying that the above-ground church in Russia, before the fall of the 03:40:31.550 --> 03:40:38.650 Soviet Union, here just recently, was nothing but a front for the KGB? 03:40:39.010 --> 03:40:43.450 They were KGB agents that were the above-ground Seventh-day Adventist church 03:40:43.450 --> 03:40:43.950 in Russia? 03:40:44.290 --> 03:40:46.710 It wasn't just the Seventh-day Adventist church, John. 03:40:47.130 --> 03:40:48.590 Look at this article here. 03:40:48.690 --> 03:40:52.530 The leader of the Russian Orthodox Church is called KGB spy. 03:40:54.370 --> 03:40:59.830 But Kulikov is the one that Neil Wilson, as General Conference President, 03:41:00.130 --> 03:41:02.010 was such big, big buddies with. 03:41:02.070 --> 03:41:05.190 And remember when they came over here to the United States and took the tour of the 03:41:05.190 --> 03:41:08.250 media center and how they were beating the drum in the Adventist Review and 03:41:08.250 --> 03:41:10.810 everything about all the wonderful things going on over in Russia? 03:41:11.190 --> 03:41:13.390 Oh, they just had a field day with that. 03:41:13.650 --> 03:41:18.750 And they, you know, in Liberty Magazine, all the pictures of our religious liberty 03:41:18.750 --> 03:41:25.290 leaders and all working on the closest level with the Council on Religious 03:41:25.290 --> 03:41:29.210 Affairs in Russia, which had been persecuting the true and free Adventists. 03:41:29.210 --> 03:41:30.030 That were underground. 03:41:30.550 --> 03:41:31.530 That were underground. 03:41:31.530 --> 03:41:32.710 That we didn't hear anything about. 03:41:33.330 --> 03:41:41.270 And, you know, John, we don't know in this world all of the implications of what is 03:41:41.270 --> 03:41:41.610 going on. 03:41:41.630 --> 03:41:45.630 But a KGB agent would know how to discredit, wouldn't he? 03:41:45.790 --> 03:41:46.270 I believe so. 03:41:46.270 --> 03:41:47.930 He would know how to work with the KGB. 03:41:47.930 --> 03:41:49.410 That's what he was a mastermind. 03:41:49.470 --> 03:41:50.350 That's what he was trained in. 03:41:50.510 --> 03:41:55.570 And you have the documentation there to show that these, now that the KGB files 03:41:55.570 --> 03:41:59.150 have been opened up since the demise of the Soviet Union, and we have the 03:41:59.150 --> 03:42:04.070 documentation coming out of the closet, that these guys were KGB agents. 03:42:04.190 --> 03:42:10.290 I've checked it with two Russian speakers, one of whom was in the field of 03:42:10.290 --> 03:42:17.810 intelligence in our military, who was a Russian translator for years, as well as 03:42:17.810 --> 03:42:19.170 this native-speaking Russian. 03:42:20.110 --> 03:42:24.810 Well, now that the Soviet Union is no longer, what's happened to the KGB? 03:42:25.110 --> 03:42:26.670 It's still in place. 03:42:26.870 --> 03:42:32.090 Don't you remember what we just read about the, what Malachi Martin said, 03:42:32.210 --> 03:42:39.570 that this whole apparatus of 20 million executioners, spymasters, KGB agents and 03:42:39.570 --> 03:42:43.710 all of that, it is still in place, like a chameleon waiting to spring into 03:42:43.710 --> 03:42:44.530 action again. 03:42:44.650 --> 03:42:52.830 You know who was, who was foremost in formulating this great bond with these KGB 03:42:52.830 --> 03:42:53.990 agents that we're just now finding? 03:42:54.050 --> 03:42:55.030 It was Neil Wilson. 03:42:55.450 --> 03:42:59.910 And you know who's still working behind the scenes, and is Bob Falkenberg's 03:42:59.910 --> 03:43:04.170 right-hand man, and many believe is still running the show, is Neil Wilson. 03:43:04.350 --> 03:43:05.690 He's in charge of Russian affairs. 03:43:06.270 --> 03:43:07.690 Isn't that amazing? 03:43:07.890 --> 03:43:11.850 Neil Wilson is in charge of Russian affairs, and he's the one that organized 03:43:11.850 --> 03:43:15.450 all of these guys, and finding out, we're finding out now that they were 03:43:15.450 --> 03:43:23.110 nothing but KGB agents, and what, is it possible, Bob, is it possible that 03:43:23.110 --> 03:43:32.090 Neil Wilson is now using these KGB agents here in America, has brought them over to 03:43:32.090 --> 03:43:33.830 America, and is using them here? 03:43:35.270 --> 03:43:36.530 We don't know. 03:43:36.870 --> 03:43:37.570 We don't know. 03:43:37.750 --> 03:43:41.210 You see, there's so much that we don't know, John, but what we do know, 03:43:41.330 --> 03:43:44.770 we need to be aware of the potential for. 03:43:44.770 --> 03:43:46.010 I put nothing past these guys. 03:43:46.850 --> 03:43:51.710 Here, the leader of the Russian Orthodox Church is called KGB spy, and his codename 03:43:51.710 --> 03:44:00.070 was Drozdov, and almost all of the ministry in the Russian Orthodox Church 03:44:00.070 --> 03:44:05.030 were either KGB spies, or collaborators, or informers. 03:44:05.150 --> 03:44:06.570 Listen, let me tell our viewers something. 03:44:06.670 --> 03:44:12.110 This is, this, you know, each one of these videos, we come out with some amazing, 03:44:12.550 --> 03:44:16.790 you, you just blow us away, Bob, with some of the documentation that you 03:44:16.790 --> 03:44:17.290 come out with. 03:44:17.590 --> 03:44:22.190 This sounds pretty far-fetched, but listen, folks, if you think that this 03:44:22.190 --> 03:44:24.310 is far, far-fetched, get this material. 03:44:24.390 --> 03:44:25.910 It's going to be in the documentation packet. 03:44:26.190 --> 03:44:28.150 You get Russian translators of your own. 03:44:28.190 --> 03:44:31.490 If you know somebody that speaks fluent Russian, a Russian native, you know, 03:44:31.530 --> 03:44:32.630 interpret these things. 03:44:32.950 --> 03:44:36.910 Look at some of these files that we have brought, that Bob has brought out of the 03:44:36.910 --> 03:44:43.310 KGB unpublished stuff that's now being published, secret files of the KGB with 03:44:43.310 --> 03:44:44.350 the demise of the USSR. 03:44:44.790 --> 03:44:46.090 Come to your own conclusions, folks. 03:44:46.130 --> 03:44:47.350 We're not making this stuff up. 03:44:47.870 --> 03:44:50.790 Let me read about the experience of the Russian Orthodox Church. 03:44:51.070 --> 03:44:51.610 Unbelievable. 03:44:51.810 --> 03:44:56.430 You know, personally, we can't, we can't level charges, but we know what 03:44:56.430 --> 03:45:00.210 the KGB does and the tactics that they use. 03:45:00.290 --> 03:45:05.250 In fact, John, I've got a book here entitled KGB. 03:45:05.450 --> 03:45:14.190 Now that the USSR has crumbled, there's much more freedom for Russians to 03:45:14.190 --> 03:45:15.110 come to America. 03:45:15.430 --> 03:45:22.490 I cannot help but believe, Bob, that, that some of these KGB agents that 03:45:22.490 --> 03:45:30.430 are no longer needed so much in the Soviet Union, in Russia, can be brought over here 03:45:30.430 --> 03:45:32.430 to America because they are skilled. 03:45:32.770 --> 03:45:36.350 Those men are skilled in espionage. 03:45:36.490 --> 03:45:37.190 They are skilled. 03:45:37.470 --> 03:45:43.350 And if you were Neil Wilson and Bob Falkenberg, who would you use these 03:45:43.350 --> 03:45:47.830 imported KGB agents that are skilled and trained in espionage and 03:45:47.830 --> 03:45:48.590 counterintelligence? 03:45:48.670 --> 03:45:49.930 How would you use them? 03:45:49.950 --> 03:45:51.770 Who would you use them against? 03:45:52.010 --> 03:45:54.410 Well, we just read, read the archives. 03:45:54.690 --> 03:45:56.570 What did the KGB do? 03:45:56.710 --> 03:45:58.970 They discredited the ones they wanted to discredit. 03:45:59.210 --> 03:46:00.870 They elevated the ones they wanted to. 03:46:00.910 --> 03:46:02.150 They controlled elections. 03:46:02.530 --> 03:46:05.210 They manipulated the church, you see. 03:46:06.630 --> 03:46:11.750 And when you put this together, John, with the use by Grantskyism, 03:46:12.150 --> 03:46:22.950 the concept of Grantskyism, with the use of the KGB apparatus to extend concepts 03:46:22.950 --> 03:46:28.370 over the Western world, it's happened, it's flowed right through the Roman 03:46:28.370 --> 03:46:30.070 Catholic Church now for decades. 03:46:31.170 --> 03:46:32.530 Is there a possibility? 03:46:32.810 --> 03:46:36.130 A possibility is always there and we have to be careful, you know, when we, 03:46:36.470 --> 03:46:41.830 about leveling charges, but we have to be open to the possibility that this thing 03:46:41.830 --> 03:46:44.270 could be far more all-pervasive than we know. 03:46:44.270 --> 03:46:46.090 There's so much that we don't know. 03:46:47.290 --> 03:46:49.010 I'm going to tell you something here, brother. 03:46:51.780 --> 03:46:58.560 You realize that within the last 30 days, the headquarters of Prophecy Countdown 03:46:58.560 --> 03:47:00.540 have been broken into four times. 03:47:01.640 --> 03:47:05.620 They have bypassed security locks. 03:47:06.400 --> 03:47:09.660 They have bypassed electronic security devices. 03:47:10.940 --> 03:47:16.580 They have entered into our computers by something that we've had computer people 03:47:16.580 --> 03:47:16.740 into. 03:47:16.840 --> 03:47:22.880 They say they had something called a boot disk that they could bypass all computer 03:47:22.880 --> 03:47:29.300 words, all bypass words, all code words, and were able to get into the internal 03:47:29.300 --> 03:47:31.520 disk of our computers. 03:47:32.560 --> 03:47:35.140 They were, they did not have master keys. 03:47:35.260 --> 03:47:39.280 We thought it was an inside job at first, but we've come, but with the detectives 03:47:39.280 --> 03:47:45.620 from the Lake County Sheriff's Department, they said that it is not, they are 03:47:45.620 --> 03:47:50.120 dealing, we are dealing with professional thieves, professional criminals that they 03:47:50.120 --> 03:47:52.100 have not seen the likes of in this county. 03:47:52.180 --> 03:47:53.740 They said these are out-of-town people. 03:47:53.960 --> 03:47:56.400 These are trained professional thieves. 03:47:56.600 --> 03:48:01.780 They were able to pick the locks, and we have good locks, Schlag locks and 03:48:01.780 --> 03:48:03.240 deadbolts. 03:48:03.400 --> 03:48:07.240 They were able to pick the locks, come into the Brink security system that 03:48:07.240 --> 03:48:12.520 we have installed in this place, using alligator clips, bypassing the 03:48:12.520 --> 03:48:18.140 electronic security devices, motion detectors that we have here, able to get 03:48:18.140 --> 03:48:23.800 into our computers using boot disk, and on four different occasions, 03:48:23.880 --> 03:48:27.340 before we found out that this, that we were being, that our security was 03:48:27.340 --> 03:48:30.720 being compromised like this, and we now have proof that they were in on four 03:48:30.720 --> 03:48:33.860 different occasions, and they went in for one reason, and one reason only. 03:48:33.960 --> 03:48:34.700 Nothing was taken. 03:48:35.620 --> 03:48:37.280 We have not missed anything. 03:48:37.380 --> 03:48:38.500 Nothing has been taken. 03:48:38.740 --> 03:48:39.600 They took no money. 03:48:39.700 --> 03:48:40.560 They took no checks. 03:48:40.680 --> 03:48:41.460 They took no equipment. 03:48:41.920 --> 03:48:44.680 They were coming for one reason, and one reason alone, and they found the 03:48:44.680 --> 03:48:49.480 computer, and they went into it four times, and that is the computer from our 03:48:49.480 --> 03:48:55.060 accounting department that states how much money comes into this ministry. 03:48:55.280 --> 03:48:59.540 This is exactly what the KGB knows how to do expertly. 03:48:59.580 --> 03:49:02.220 Now Bob, this is what has happened in the last four weeks in this ministry. 03:49:02.360 --> 03:49:05.960 We have been terrorized by some, by professional criminals. 03:49:06.160 --> 03:49:09.120 You can ask the Sheriff's Department, the detectives of the Sheriff's Department 03:49:09.120 --> 03:49:13.240 of Lake County, that we are dealing with professional out-of-town thieves that are 03:49:13.240 --> 03:49:17.460 able to bypass all security systems and all locks that they have not encountered 03:49:17.460 --> 03:49:18.540 before in this county. 03:49:18.660 --> 03:49:20.380 These are out-of-town professionals. 03:49:20.820 --> 03:49:22.180 Now Bob, I want to tell you something. 03:49:23.240 --> 03:49:31.600 Do you believe that the Baptist Church is interested in how much money comes into 03:49:31.600 --> 03:49:32.420 Prophecy Countdown? 03:49:32.620 --> 03:49:32.880 No. 03:49:33.260 --> 03:49:37.860 Do you think that the Catholic Church is interested in how much money comes into 03:49:37.860 --> 03:49:38.820 Prophecy Countdown? 03:49:38.820 --> 03:49:45.400 They said it was a deep pocket organization that had the money and the 03:49:45.400 --> 03:49:51.660 resources to hire the best of the best professional thieves to come in and to go 03:49:51.660 --> 03:49:57.460 into our computer system, wanting and risk all of this to find out one thing and one 03:49:57.460 --> 03:50:01.520 thing only, and that was how much money was coming into Prophecy Countdown. 03:50:02.100 --> 03:50:07.000 Now Bob, we are dealing, we are dealing with satanic, satanic forces. 03:50:07.600 --> 03:50:12.740 And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who it was that hired 03:50:12.740 --> 03:50:17.120 professional thieves to break into this ministry and compromise our computer 03:50:17.120 --> 03:50:17.600 system. 03:50:17.860 --> 03:50:20.660 We have increased the security around this ministry. 03:50:20.880 --> 03:50:24.260 And I want to tell you folks, it's frightening what we're dealing with here. 03:50:24.540 --> 03:50:32.160 And I just think it's important that you know the satanic, diabolical people that 03:50:32.160 --> 03:50:33.080 we are dealing with. 03:50:33.260 --> 03:50:37.760 And you know, our people have their head in the sand thinking that we're dealing 03:50:37.760 --> 03:50:42.100 with a very pious, holy, sanctimonious leadership. 03:50:42.540 --> 03:50:46.800 But I want to tell you, it doesn't take a genius to figure out who it was that was 03:50:46.800 --> 03:50:51.220 responsible for breaking into our ministry and accessing our computers to find out 03:50:51.220 --> 03:50:52.460 how much money we take in. 03:50:52.620 --> 03:50:58.700 And now that you are explaining this about how the KGB agents were the, were the 03:50:58.700 --> 03:51:03.450 visible Seventh-day Adventist Church in Russia, and now that they are available 03:51:04.520 --> 03:51:09.540 for work here in America and the 47 that you mentioned came to America, 03:51:09.660 --> 03:51:12.660 these 47 churches... Vancouver, British Columbia. 03:51:12.880 --> 03:51:14.580 Over to North America. 03:51:15.060 --> 03:51:18.420 And with the cozy relationship that Neil Wilson, our denomination, has had with 03:51:18.420 --> 03:51:25.280 these KGB agents, it doesn't take you long to figure out a very believable scenario. 03:51:25.500 --> 03:51:25.880 That's right. 03:51:26.200 --> 03:51:28.620 It certainly is a believable scenario, John. 03:51:29.020 --> 03:51:31.460 And this stuff is absolutely diabolical. 03:51:31.560 --> 03:51:37.640 In fact, in his book, Andrei Sakharov, he describes an incident that took place 03:51:37.640 --> 03:51:39.400 in, in his life. 03:51:39.840 --> 03:51:48.340 He had to go down to the telephone and he went with his wife. 03:51:48.680 --> 03:51:52.620 Usually they had someone staying in their apartment because he had had his memoirs 03:51:52.620 --> 03:51:53.700 stolen again and again. 03:51:54.860 --> 03:52:03.940 And what happened was he, he left his apartment empty for an hour or so, 03:52:04.100 --> 03:52:05.880 something we normally tried to avoid. 03:52:05.960 --> 03:52:07.200 This is page 486. 03:52:07.800 --> 03:52:11.760 When we knew we'd be, we'd all be out at the same time, we'd usually take the most 03:52:11.760 --> 03:52:13.100 important papers with us. 03:52:13.440 --> 03:52:15.480 But that day we neglected to do so. 03:52:16.160 --> 03:52:17.580 Notice they were gone for one hour. 03:52:18.220 --> 03:52:23.000 Lucia and I went out to a bookstore around one o'clock, soon after Ruth and Lisa, 03:52:23.200 --> 03:52:26.860 who was living with us, left for the International Telephone Office. 03:52:27.340 --> 03:52:31.620 It was impossible to call Alexei or Tanya or Ephraim from our apartment. 03:52:32.100 --> 03:52:36.020 The KGB agent who monitored our line would immediately terminate the conversation. 03:52:36.560 --> 03:52:39.040 Not being able to talk is worse than being bugged. 03:52:39.220 --> 03:52:41.180 See, they would terminate conversations right in the middle. 03:52:41.700 --> 03:52:44.440 After all, unpleasant as bugging is, we still had nothing to hide. 03:52:44.880 --> 03:52:49.040 Ruth and Lisa had managed to place several calls to Alexei from the telephone office, 03:52:49.240 --> 03:52:50.760 but this time they were cut off. 03:52:50.900 --> 03:52:53.380 We all returned to the apartment about the same time. 03:52:53.960 --> 03:52:56.960 A few minutes later, Lisa called out from the bathroom, where's my robe? 03:52:57.000 --> 03:52:57.860 I can't find it. 03:52:58.440 --> 03:53:02.020 We discovered a strange assortment of things missing, old clothing, including 03:53:02.020 --> 03:53:05.980 the pants they like to wear around the house, a favorite blue jacket which Klava 03:53:05.980 --> 03:53:10.160 had bought for me, and my eyeglasses, while more valuable possessions in plain 03:53:10.160 --> 03:53:11.280 sight had not been taken. 03:53:12.100 --> 03:53:18.260 When Lydia Chukovskaya came by the next day for a visit and asked to take a look 03:53:18.260 --> 03:53:22.220 at something I'd written, I discovered that my document box had been rifled. 03:53:22.580 --> 03:53:26.480 The letter to Brezhnev had disappeared, as had the manuscript representing five 03:53:26.480 --> 03:53:27.900 months work on these memoirs. 03:53:28.220 --> 03:53:32.120 This was the first of many thefts or confiscations, call them what you will, 03:53:32.120 --> 03:53:34.780 of this Sisyphean labor of mine. 03:53:36.880 --> 03:53:42.760 And then, he says, dropping down here, it was obvious the KGB had gone through 03:53:42.760 --> 03:53:45.700 the apartment, despite the theft of the clothing. 03:53:46.400 --> 03:53:50.440 We had locked the apartment door when we left, and it was locked when we returned, 03:53:50.860 --> 03:53:53.760 but keys are no problem for the KGB specialists. 03:53:54.700 --> 03:53:58.080 Four years later, Lucia and I would undergo an official search aboard the 03:53:58.080 --> 03:54:02.820 Gorky Moscow train, but back then, the KGB still preferred to use covert, 03:54:03.380 --> 03:54:04.060 unofficial methods. 03:54:04.180 --> 03:54:05.460 So they were gone for one hour. 03:54:05.840 --> 03:54:09.600 In that one hour, they penetrated through the locks, just got what they want, 03:54:09.740 --> 03:54:10.240 and went out. 03:54:10.440 --> 03:54:10.700 Bob? 03:54:13.820 --> 03:54:17.360 After this happened, when we became aware that this had happened, that we'd been 03:54:17.360 --> 03:54:24.300 broken into, we contacted a company in Orlando that specializes in surveillance 03:54:24.300 --> 03:54:28.340 and bugging equipment, and see if your place has been bugged. 03:54:28.780 --> 03:54:33.860 And the gentleman came up here on an initial call with some equipment, 03:54:34.320 --> 03:54:38.980 and went through our building, and he had this, it's a little, 03:54:39.160 --> 03:54:44.660 I can't explain, it's a kind of a detector-type thing that senses electronic 03:54:44.660 --> 03:54:46.020 listening devices. 03:54:46.340 --> 03:54:48.200 I want to tell you folks, we are not paranoid. 03:54:48.360 --> 03:54:52.640 I do not suffer from paranoia, and I've taken great pride in my life that 03:54:52.640 --> 03:54:54.800 I am not paranoid and suffer from paranoia. 03:54:55.020 --> 03:54:58.460 But if you knew what we were dealing with, this is not paranoia, believe me. 03:54:58.480 --> 03:55:00.440 This is a very stark reality. 03:55:01.320 --> 03:55:05.940 And they went through our offices, and when he would come over my phone, 03:55:06.460 --> 03:55:10.940 he goes, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, and he'd say, there's an electronic 03:55:10.940 --> 03:55:12.080 listening device on that phone. 03:55:12.540 --> 03:55:17.800 He went into Diane's phone, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, he said the same 03:55:17.800 --> 03:55:18.460 thing with his phone. 03:55:18.640 --> 03:55:22.760 Went through all the different ones, it was on my phone, Diane's phone, 03:55:23.080 --> 03:55:27.300 Terry Ross' phone, and our board chairman's phone, Kathleen Greenfield's 03:55:27.300 --> 03:55:27.500 phone. 03:55:27.740 --> 03:55:30.840 And He says, this isn't just the phone. 03:55:30.920 --> 03:55:32.560 He says, the line is bugged. 03:55:32.600 --> 03:55:37.620 He says, this characteristic of this is like the line is bugged. 03:55:37.740 --> 03:55:40.920 He says, we've got to bring some more sophisticated equipment tomorrow. 03:55:41.480 --> 03:55:43.420 And he says, and find out exactly where this thing is. 03:55:43.520 --> 03:55:48.520 They brought some very sophisticated equipment in the next day and went by my 03:55:48.520 --> 03:55:48.900 phone. 03:55:49.460 --> 03:55:49.760 Nothing. 03:55:50.420 --> 03:55:51.740 Diane's phone, nothing. 03:55:52.340 --> 03:55:55.960 Terry's phone, Kathleen's phone, all the phones, not a thing had been 03:55:55.960 --> 03:55:56.540 removed. 03:55:56.540 --> 03:55:57.120 That night. 03:55:57.340 --> 03:55:58.000 That night. 03:55:58.200 --> 03:55:58.780 Unbelievable. 03:55:59.960 --> 03:56:02.940 John, there's a person, we're holding camp meeting here right now. 03:56:03.920 --> 03:56:07.800 There's a man here who came in from overseas and he came to the immigration 03:56:07.800 --> 03:56:09.120 office at Boston. 03:56:09.240 --> 03:56:10.360 He was telling us about this. 03:56:11.420 --> 03:56:14.460 They asked him where his contact point was in America. 03:56:15.340 --> 03:56:16.680 And he mentioned Prophecy Countdown. 03:56:16.800 --> 03:56:20.180 And immediately he said, the man's attitude changed. 03:56:20.500 --> 03:56:24.360 And he began going through all of his papers in his briefcase. 03:56:24.360 --> 03:56:26.760 And he felt that it was very suspicious. 03:56:30.480 --> 03:56:32.720 Well, John, that's simply amazing. 03:56:33.820 --> 03:56:35.600 We're in amazing times. 03:56:35.740 --> 03:56:40.200 You know, in intelligence services, sometimes intelligence services... 03:56:40.200 --> 03:56:42.280 And yet you and I are just doing this for the money, Bob. 03:56:44.340 --> 03:56:49.200 You know, John Osborne and Bob Trebs, they're just doing it for the money. 03:56:49.680 --> 03:56:52.160 Yeah, we're just doing this for the money, you know. 03:56:52.160 --> 03:56:57.440 And, you know, putting, sacrificing life and limb and family in the pursuit of 03:56:57.440 --> 03:56:57.880 happiness. 03:56:58.080 --> 03:56:59.520 And we're just doing this for the money. 03:56:59.760 --> 03:57:03.560 I mean, somebody would have to have rocks in their head to think that you and I 03:57:03.560 --> 03:57:07.840 would lay our lives on the line to do what we are doing. 03:57:08.940 --> 03:57:10.140 John, that's right. 03:57:11.780 --> 03:57:14.880 The intelligence services like to work together. 03:57:15.300 --> 03:57:20.520 And we know that the CIA has been working with the Vatican for a long time. 03:57:20.520 --> 03:57:27.800 In fact, at the end of World War II, the OSS that preceded the CIA worked with 03:57:27.800 --> 03:57:33.360 the Vatican and the Nazis themselves to help Nazi war criminals escape. 03:57:33.460 --> 03:57:34.780 Now, tell me this, John. 03:57:34.840 --> 03:57:40.540 Why did the OSS work with the Nazis, as well as the Vatican, to help the Nazi 03:57:40.540 --> 03:57:41.680 war criminals escape? 03:57:41.680 --> 03:57:47.460 And when the CIA was established, it was flooded with Catholic applicants 03:57:47.460 --> 03:57:49.980 who took the significant jobs. 03:57:50.440 --> 03:57:57.200 And, John, I have here the biography of William Casey, who was the head of our 03:57:57.200 --> 03:57:57.560 CIA. 03:57:57.760 --> 03:57:59.040 He was trained by the Jesuits. 03:57:59.300 --> 03:58:03.300 It's right here in the early chapter, is in the hands of the Jesuits. 03:58:03.300 --> 03:58:09.040 It even tells about a weekend that they had a symposium on natural law at the 03:58:09.040 --> 03:58:10.200 university, Fordham. 03:58:12.240 --> 03:58:19.580 And the CIA has worked with the Vatican in recent years on the closest terms, 03:58:19.700 --> 03:58:27.360 along with the AFL-CIO, to bring down communism in Poland, working for the 03:58:27.360 --> 03:58:29.300 Solidarity Labor Union cause. 03:58:29.300 --> 03:58:33.800 And so, these intelligence agencies like to work together. 03:58:34.360 --> 03:58:38.880 And we'll probably never know until eternity what all the dimensions of this 03:58:38.880 --> 03:58:39.420 thing are. 03:58:39.880 --> 03:58:49.340 But this thing we know, John, we know that the New World Order is going to take 03:58:49.340 --> 03:58:49.820 place. 03:58:49.860 --> 03:58:52.600 That there's going to be a universal bond of union. 03:58:53.160 --> 03:58:57.880 That the Pope will have its day once again. 03:58:57.880 --> 03:59:05.240 And that all those who do not receive the mark of the beast in their right hand or 03:59:05.240 --> 03:59:11.380 in their foreheads are going to have a death decree against them. 03:59:11.500 --> 03:59:16.580 Let me just read here, Revelation 13, verse 15. 03:59:16.680 --> 03:59:20.860 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the 03:59:20.860 --> 03:59:25.940 beast should both speak and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the 03:59:25.940 --> 03:59:26.760 beast should be killed. 03:59:26.760 --> 03:59:31.160 Either submit to the image of the beast, the image of the papal hierarchy 03:59:31.160 --> 03:59:34.120 established in America and imposed around the world. 03:59:34.800 --> 03:59:40.380 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a 03:59:40.380 --> 03:59:43.100 mark in their right hand or in their foreheads. 03:59:43.100 --> 03:59:47.580 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of 03:59:47.580 --> 03:59:49.320 the beast, or the number of his name. 03:59:49.320 --> 03:59:50.160 Here is wisdom. 03:59:50.720 --> 03:59:54.720 Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number 03:59:54.720 --> 03:59:59.100 of a man, and his number is six hundred, threescore, and six. 03:59:59.980 --> 04:00:06.580 So we have been called, John, to such a... all of us, faithful, Bible-believing, 04:00:06.740 --> 04:00:10.800 Seventh-day Adventists, and the whole earth has been called by God to take their 04:00:10.800 --> 04:00:16.200 stand on the three angels' messages and to give the last warning message, 04:00:16.500 --> 04:00:20.400 the call to come out of Babylon, to take one's stand on the three angels' 04:00:20.580 --> 04:00:26.120 messages, on the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, and to be faithful 04:00:26.120 --> 04:00:29.700 unto death, and we will receive a crown of life. 04:00:29.720 --> 04:00:30.060 Amen. 04:00:30.320 --> 04:00:33.400 Bob, thank you so much for another wonderful interview. 04:00:34.380 --> 04:00:38.740 And it just comes down to the bottom line, once again, that each and every one of us 04:00:38.740 --> 04:00:39.480 have to decide. 04:00:40.020 --> 04:00:43.820 Are we going to be Roman Catholic Seventh-day Adventists, or are we going to 04:00:43.820 --> 04:00:45.500 be Protestant Seventh-day Adventists? 04:00:45.600 --> 04:00:45.780 Amen. 04:00:47.020 --> 04:00:49.520 Well, we've just been editing Jesuit Agenda 3. 04:00:49.800 --> 04:00:54.340 We're at the end, and Bob Trebs has called and said we can't finish this tape without 04:00:54.340 --> 04:00:54.940 an update. 04:00:55.520 --> 04:00:58.680 And he's ready to bring us up to date of what's going on. 04:00:59.400 --> 04:01:03.400 Bob, tell us what the latest is that's going on since we taped Jesuit Agenda 3 04:01:03.400 --> 04:01:03.720 together. 04:01:03.720 --> 04:01:07.420 We're about ready to wrap up the editing here and duplicate this tape and get it 04:01:07.420 --> 04:01:11.280 out to our Adventist people, but we just wanted to find out what the latest thing 04:01:11.280 --> 04:01:13.480 going on with the Church is. 04:01:13.520 --> 04:01:14.300 Hi, John. 04:01:14.820 --> 04:01:16.280 Good to hear your voice again. 04:01:16.400 --> 04:01:17.000 Thanks, Bob. 04:01:17.180 --> 04:01:21.260 Well, there's a lot of things that have happened over the course of the summer. 04:01:21.620 --> 04:01:23.920 Now we're one day before the elections. 04:01:24.220 --> 04:01:24.560 Yes. 04:01:24.560 --> 04:01:27.520 And we discussed that, as I recall. 04:01:28.060 --> 04:01:32.160 But first of all, I'd like to just mention something that has really impressed itself 04:01:32.160 --> 04:01:38.760 on my mind, and that is that we have to implement in our own lives the principles 04:01:38.760 --> 04:01:45.020 of the Gospel, the principles of the Reformation, the principles of Adventism, 04:01:45.140 --> 04:01:46.760 the principles of Gospel liberty. 04:01:48.360 --> 04:01:54.940 The Gospel itself is a great message of liberty, of freedom from sin, and of 04:01:54.940 --> 04:01:56.500 liberty in the Holy Spirit. 04:01:57.020 --> 04:02:02.540 And we are warned in Galatians 5-1 not to let that liberty slip away from us. 04:02:02.680 --> 04:02:03.140 Absolutely. 04:02:03.140 --> 04:02:10.300 And so we are going into these last day events with a great need to have a 04:02:10.300 --> 04:02:16.180 personal experience of justification with the Lord, and sanctification and harmony 04:02:16.180 --> 04:02:19.500 with the perfect law of liberty, the Ten Commandments. 04:02:20.310 --> 04:02:24.900 And this is so critical because one of the fundamental issues that we are looking at 04:02:24.900 --> 04:02:31.480 in Jesuit Agenda 3 is the issue of what is going to hold the primacy in the human 04:02:31.480 --> 04:02:32.140 experience. 04:02:32.140 --> 04:02:37.620 Will it be personal salvation and liberty in the Gospel, which Martin Luther 04:02:37.620 --> 04:02:43.140 discovered in the 16th century as he sought for personal salvation. 04:02:43.460 --> 04:02:49.160 He discovered liberty, and that liberty he brought to the peoples of Northern Europe 04:02:49.160 --> 04:02:52.100 as they accepted the Gospel. 04:02:52.720 --> 04:02:57.920 On the other hand, the principle that Satan is continually trying to advocate, 04:02:58.360 --> 04:03:01.640 which we have looked at and we want to look at a little bit more right now, 04:03:01.940 --> 04:03:07.060 is the principle that the community takes the primacy over the individual. 04:03:07.840 --> 04:03:11.240 Bob, as I have been editing this Jesuit Agenda 3, this is the thing that just 04:03:11.240 --> 04:03:14.520 keeps coming up over and over and over again through our whole interview, 04:03:15.060 --> 04:03:19.340 was how that the community takes precedence over individual rights. 04:03:19.380 --> 04:03:21.400 And we've never heard that before as Americans. 04:03:21.400 --> 04:03:25.300 Well, this, John, is hitting us now from every angle. 04:03:26.100 --> 04:03:29.740 And I want to, in this telephone conversation, hit some of the things that 04:03:29.740 --> 04:03:33.420 have emerged over the summer on this score. 04:03:33.540 --> 04:03:38.220 Some very, very shocking things from the North American Division officers, 04:03:38.600 --> 04:03:42.920 as well as in the course of the election campaign. 04:03:43.560 --> 04:03:46.560 And so maybe we can look at a few things now. 04:03:46.660 --> 04:03:51.160 It's been so long since the beginning of the summer, I'm not sure how much we 04:03:51.160 --> 04:03:53.020 treated on certain subjects. 04:03:53.460 --> 04:03:58.840 But I remember at a camp meeting a couple of years ago, I read the following quote 04:03:58.840 --> 04:03:59.860 here. 04:03:59.860 --> 04:04:05.080 It is thus necessary that the individual should finally come to realize that his 04:04:05.080 --> 04:04:09.840 own ego is of no importance in comparison with the existence of his nation. 04:04:10.420 --> 04:04:14.860 That the position of the individual ego is conditioned solely by the interests of the 04:04:14.860 --> 04:04:15.880 nation as a whole. 04:04:16.400 --> 04:04:21.280 That above all, the unity of a nation's spirit and will are worth far more than 04:04:21.280 --> 04:04:23.460 the freedom of the spirit and will of an individual. 04:04:23.460 --> 04:04:28.560 This state of mind, which subordinates the interests of the ego to the conservation 04:04:28.560 --> 04:04:33.580 of the community, is really the first premise for every truly human culture. 04:04:34.160 --> 04:04:38.380 The basic attitude from which such activity arises, we call, to distinguish 04:04:38.380 --> 04:04:40.860 it from egoism and selfishness, idealism. 04:04:41.460 --> 04:04:45.500 By this we understand only the individual's capacity to make sacrifices 04:04:45.500 --> 04:04:47.820 for the community, for his fellow men. 04:04:47.820 --> 04:04:51.420 And then I asked the congregation who they thought had said that. 04:04:51.580 --> 04:04:56.280 And some thought President Bush, and various ones thought other great 04:04:56.280 --> 04:04:56.780 individuals. 04:04:56.960 --> 04:04:59.320 And then I told them that it was Adolf Hitler. 04:04:59.560 --> 04:05:00.620 And they were shocked. 04:05:01.140 --> 04:05:05.840 But you see, this is the fundamental premise of collectivism, which lay at the 04:05:05.840 --> 04:05:09.820 bottom of the Nazi totalitarianism. 04:05:09.820 --> 04:05:16.980 And I'm reading from The Ominous Parallels by Leonard Peikoff, page 17 here. 04:05:17.060 --> 04:05:22.300 Collectivism is the theory that the group, that is the collective, has primacy over 04:05:22.300 --> 04:05:22.980 the individual. 04:05:23.720 --> 04:05:29.560 Now, we've had a number of experiments in the 20th century which have experimented 04:05:29.560 --> 04:05:30.240 with this idea. 04:05:30.240 --> 04:05:40.200 Nazism, for one, which presented this very premise, and the nation bought it to a 04:05:40.200 --> 04:05:42.140 large extent, although not all. 04:05:42.640 --> 04:05:46.920 And then we have the experiment under communism. 04:05:47.320 --> 04:05:49.200 And just think of that word communism. 04:05:49.400 --> 04:05:55.200 It asserts the primacy of the commune, or the community, over the individual once 04:05:55.200 --> 04:05:55.600 again. 04:05:55.600 --> 04:06:00.860 And that was a vast social experiment, as we explored in Jesuit Agenda 3, 04:06:01.320 --> 04:06:03.840 there with you, of social engineering. 04:06:03.840 --> 04:06:10.200 To see what could be done with the human being through education and control of the 04:06:10.200 --> 04:06:15.280 environment to create a new human being through these principles. 04:06:15.280 --> 04:06:23.160 And then we looked at the environment and the environmental concerns of the papacy 04:06:23.160 --> 04:06:27.220 and the Pope with his encyclical on social concern in 1987. 04:06:27.840 --> 04:06:35.280 And we saw that this idea of the community asserting its control and rights over the 04:06:35.280 --> 04:06:40.960 individual, once again, was a primary focus of the papacy. 04:06:40.960 --> 04:06:46.920 And so, some of the things that have emerged over the summer are the following, 04:06:47.220 --> 04:06:47.500 John. 04:06:48.140 --> 04:06:55.680 The book, Earth in the Balance, by Al Gore, is a book that was sold so 04:06:55.680 --> 04:06:59.500 fast in the bookstores it was hard to get one at times this summer. 04:06:59.500 --> 04:07:07.680 And in this book, we have an amazing manifesto laid out by Al Gore that 04:07:07.680 --> 04:07:14.040 virtually is identical to the papal encyclical that we looked at in the early 04:07:14.040 --> 04:07:15.260 part of this video. 04:07:15.560 --> 04:07:20.600 The thing that's so frightening is to realize, tomorrow, he will most likely, 04:07:20.740 --> 04:07:24.280 according to all polls, become the next Vice President of the United States. 04:07:24.280 --> 04:07:24.860 Right. 04:07:25.160 --> 04:07:31.680 Now, I'd like to just read to you just a couple things, a few things here from his 04:07:31.680 --> 04:07:33.060 book for documentation. 04:07:33.440 --> 04:07:45.920 On page 278, he uses this environmental issue to push the idea of community. 04:07:46.620 --> 04:07:51.340 He says, This notion is itself an ecological question in the sense that it 04:07:51.340 --> 04:07:54.020 involves a balance between rights and responsibilities. 04:07:54.800 --> 04:07:59.220 In fact, what many feel is a deep philosophical crisis in the West has 04:07:59.220 --> 04:08:02.160 occurred in part because this balance has been disrupted. 04:08:02.160 --> 04:08:07.720 We have tilted so far toward individual rights and so far away from any sense of 04:08:07.720 --> 04:08:12.520 obligation that it is now difficult to muster an adequate defense of any rights 04:08:12.520 --> 04:08:17.240 vested in the community at large or in the nation, much less rights properly invested 04:08:17.240 --> 04:08:19.620 in all humankind or in posterity. 04:08:20.570 --> 04:08:29.440 And he goes on to tell us that we need to begin reasserting the rights of the 04:08:29.440 --> 04:08:33.280 community or the nation or the world as a whole. 04:08:34.160 --> 04:08:39.560 And this is a distinct tilt that we're seeing. 04:08:39.720 --> 04:08:46.260 Also, on page 279, he discusses the North-South issues that the Pope discussed 04:08:46.260 --> 04:08:47.840 in his encyclical. 04:08:48.690 --> 04:08:54.540 He discusses the Pope himself here and Teilhard de Chardin, the Jesuit who is the 04:08:54.540 --> 04:08:59.840 most influential figure in the New Age movement, on pages 262 and 263. 04:09:00.280 --> 04:09:05.640 On page 204, he says we must aspire to a Catholic understanding of the nature of 04:09:05.640 --> 04:09:06.260 civilization. 04:09:06.940 --> 04:09:13.420 He calls for a global Marshall Plan on page 344, a global summit 346, 04:09:14.040 --> 04:09:17.580 a new generation of international treaties on 352. 04:09:18.360 --> 04:09:23.760 And then he has some very amazing things, and I think this is very fundamental to 04:09:23.760 --> 04:09:25.960 this whole environmental issue. 04:09:26.960 --> 04:09:32.240 He says that the rescue of the environment must be made the central organizing 04:09:32.240 --> 04:09:38.560 principle for civilization on pages 269 and 273. 04:09:39.280 --> 04:09:46.280 And so what we're seeing is an attempt to find a cause, such as the environment, 04:09:46.700 --> 04:09:52.440 which the entire world community can rally around, which will erase the international 04:09:52.440 --> 04:10:00.760 boundaries and will make the earth into a single unifying factor that will all 04:10:00.760 --> 04:10:05.240 function together and find a common cause, a common ground. 04:10:05.380 --> 04:10:10.780 That is happening right before our eyes, Bob, and it's just amazing what a 04:10:10.780 --> 04:10:16.100 masterpiece of deception this is that Satan has been able to pull off. 04:10:16.100 --> 04:10:18.500 I mean, what could be more universal? 04:10:18.780 --> 04:10:24.540 What could bring more camaraderie of all nations, all religions, than this to save 04:10:24.540 --> 04:10:25.240 the world? 04:10:25.540 --> 04:10:30.600 This plays right into the scenario that I have always preached of the Mark of the 04:10:30.600 --> 04:10:32.940 Beast, how it would be brought about. 04:10:33.160 --> 04:10:36.680 We are being set up for the Mark of the Beast. 04:10:36.780 --> 04:10:39.560 The world is being prepared to receive the Mark of the Beast. 04:10:39.800 --> 04:10:43.640 I mean, this is a fulfillment of prophecy right before our eyes, and it's this 04:10:43.640 --> 04:10:45.160 environmental issue. 04:10:45.160 --> 04:10:47.760 I mean, what a masterpiece of deception. 04:10:48.400 --> 04:10:54.120 And, John, in Insight on the News, there is a leading article that occurred 04:10:54.120 --> 04:10:58.920 in the November 2, 1992 issue, The Gospel According to Al Gore, 04:10:59.080 --> 04:11:00.820 in which they analyze his book. 04:11:00.820 --> 04:11:09.720 And they describe how Al Gore has a tremendous blend here of a dabbling in the 04:11:09.720 --> 04:11:15.820 Bible and some biblical notions, and also the Eastern religions. 04:11:15.840 --> 04:11:22.020 The pagan mother-goddess thing is a big thing that he laments that we've drifted 04:11:22.020 --> 04:11:23.540 away from in society. 04:11:24.300 --> 04:11:30.660 And he tries to make a theology out of the environment, which is a very, very 04:11:30.660 --> 04:11:36.780 interesting thing that is developing, and which we have been warned about by 04:11:36.780 --> 04:11:39.260 Alvin Toffler in his book Power Shift. 04:11:40.150 --> 04:11:44.800 He goes into the Native American pantheistic religions. 04:11:45.100 --> 04:11:48.600 He goes into Baha'i. 04:11:48.880 --> 04:11:55.320 He goes into the Gaia theory and hypothesis that the earth is a living 04:11:55.320 --> 04:11:56.080 organism. 04:11:57.220 --> 04:12:01.980 This article points out how the World Council of Churches is involved in this 04:12:01.980 --> 04:12:07.820 type of call for the integrity of creation. 04:12:10.500 --> 04:12:16.340 And the article quotes also from Jim Conlon, the director of the Institute in 04:12:16.340 --> 04:12:20.000 Culture and Creation Spirituality at Holy Names College in Oakland, California, 04:12:20.440 --> 04:12:25.700 the same place that the Dominican scholar Matthew Fox, who wrote The Coming of the 04:12:25.700 --> 04:12:27.900 Cosmic Christ, is from, the same institution. 04:12:28.680 --> 04:12:33.220 He finds the Gaia hypothesis useful for the recovery of a lost sense of the 04:12:33.220 --> 04:12:34.680 soulfulness of all nature. 04:12:34.680 --> 04:12:36.180 This is pantheism. 04:12:36.300 --> 04:12:41.520 And at one point, Al Gore asks the question in his book, why does it feel 04:12:41.520 --> 04:12:46.540 faintly heretical to a Christian to suppose that God is in us as human beings? 04:12:47.240 --> 04:12:50.400 And, of course, he's talking about the pantheistic concept of God. 04:12:50.400 --> 04:12:52.080 Al Gore believes this. 04:12:52.220 --> 04:12:55.800 Most likely tomorrow to be voted in as the Vice President of the United States. 04:12:55.940 --> 04:12:58.740 One heartbeat away from the presidency. 04:12:59.140 --> 04:13:00.640 I want to tell you something, Bob. 04:13:00.720 --> 04:13:05.100 How could you, how could anybody be against this? 04:13:05.200 --> 04:13:10.560 This looks so holy and so good and so pious and to save the world and to save 04:13:10.560 --> 04:13:11.280 our planet. 04:13:11.280 --> 04:13:17.680 I mean, if you were against this, you would have to be the most heinous 04:13:17.680 --> 04:13:25.080 monster that ever lived to be against saving the environment. 04:13:25.460 --> 04:13:25.740 Yes. 04:13:25.840 --> 04:13:33.020 Well, that's why Satan has sought to find a cause that it becomes very difficult to 04:13:33.020 --> 04:13:37.980 oppose and to link it with his machinery for the suppression of liberty at the end. 04:13:37.980 --> 04:13:44.940 So, anybody that would be against this, humanly speaking, would need to be 04:13:44.940 --> 04:13:46.140 exterminated. 04:13:47.040 --> 04:13:51.940 I mean, anybody that would be against saving the environment and saving our 04:13:51.940 --> 04:13:55.400 planet, well, we just need to get rid of them. 04:13:55.560 --> 04:13:57.640 I mean, we just need to exterminate them. 04:13:57.700 --> 04:14:01.700 I mean, you can see how that logic and rationale sounds so plausible. 04:14:02.020 --> 04:14:04.560 And they get very, very frantic about the whole thing, too. 04:14:04.700 --> 04:14:05.140 Yes. 04:14:05.140 --> 04:14:10.980 And, John, I would like to draw our attention here to Alvin Toffler's Power 04:14:10.980 --> 04:14:16.020 Shift book where he discusses this whole notion of eco-theocracy, he calls it, 04:14:16.080 --> 04:14:20.260 that is, environmental theology or eco-theocracy. 04:14:20.460 --> 04:14:24.200 This was a very big thing with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi movement. 04:14:24.300 --> 04:14:29.640 I'd like to just bring a few things from his book, page 377 and following. 04:14:29.640 --> 04:14:30.120 He says, 04:15:00.380 --> 04:15:06.740 Already there's talk of an environmental police force that will have international 04:15:06.740 --> 04:15:13.160 jurisdiction and enforce environmental concerns in the various nations. 04:15:13.280 --> 04:15:22.200 We've been seeing this kind of thing happening in Europe with the EC imposing 04:15:22.200 --> 04:15:26.420 its will within national boundaries on various concerns. 04:15:26.420 --> 04:15:34.000 And he discusses about those who want to, in this movement, plunge society into 04:15:34.000 --> 04:15:40.900 pre-technological medievalism and asceticism, the eco-theologues and the 04:15:40.900 --> 04:15:42.260 religious extremists. 04:15:42.980 --> 04:15:50.160 He tells about how these people like to sometimes go back to quote German mystics 04:15:50.160 --> 04:15:54.800 like Meister Eckhart, the founder of German mysticism in the 13th century. 04:15:54.800 --> 04:15:58.920 See, this is all wrapped up with mysticism, which we've talked about also, 04:15:59.080 --> 04:15:59.360 John. 04:15:59.840 --> 04:16:05.680 In fact, a book came into me this summer about Teilhard de Chardin and his effort 04:16:05.680 --> 04:16:10.700 to promote a new mysticism combining Western mysticism and Eastern mysticism. 04:16:10.700 --> 04:16:17.200 And so these people are interested in going back to a situation where there must 04:16:17.200 --> 04:16:23.240 be sharp restrictions on individual choice, page 379, that may be required to 04:16:23.240 --> 04:16:25.760 make people moral or to protect the environment. 04:16:26.440 --> 04:16:31.440 And he says this points ultimately to a common attack on human rights. 04:16:31.940 --> 04:16:34.480 So he sees this, and here he's not an Adventist. 04:16:35.260 --> 04:16:39.980 Indeed, many environmentalists themselves worry openly about the arrival of green 04:16:39.980 --> 04:16:44.180 ayatollahs or eco-fascists who impose their particular brand of salvation. 04:16:45.620 --> 04:16:50.440 And he says the deeper the crisis, the darker the charismatic figure who will 04:16:50.440 --> 04:16:51.200 emerge. 04:16:51.620 --> 04:16:56.340 Whether or not we will have a green Adolf depends on how far cultural change 04:16:56.340 --> 04:16:58.160 advances before the next Chernobyl. 04:16:59.820 --> 04:17:05.360 Then, dropping down on that page, he says, if we reject... he quotes a 04:17:05.360 --> 04:17:10.520 French sociologist, Alain Terrain, who says, If we reject reason in the name 04:17:10.520 --> 04:17:15.400 of salvation from ozone depletion, we will court a green fundamentalism and 04:17:15.400 --> 04:17:18.200 eco-theocracy of the Ayatollah Khomeini variety. 04:17:18.820 --> 04:17:23.960 If such anxiety sounds too extreme, it may be worth recalling the Wandervogel 04:17:23.960 --> 04:17:26.140 youth movement of the 1920s in Germany. 04:17:26.140 --> 04:17:31.680 Now, we discussed that in this episode, where the green movement today is most 04:17:31.680 --> 04:17:32.260 militant. 04:17:32.940 --> 04:17:37.200 The Wandervogel were the hippie greens of the Weimar Republic, roaming the 04:17:37.200 --> 04:17:40.640 countryside with their rucksacks, carrying guitars, wearing flowers, 04:17:40.780 --> 04:17:44.760 holding woodstock-like festivals, high on spirituality and preaching a 04:17:44.760 --> 04:17:45.600 return to nature. 04:17:45.800 --> 04:17:47.800 A decade later, Hitler was in control. 04:17:47.800 --> 04:17:53.380 Hitler also exalted pre-industrial values, picturing the Nazi utopia as one in which 04:17:53.380 --> 04:17:57.760 the blacksmith stands again at his anvil, the farmer walks behind his plow. 04:17:58.420 --> 04:18:00.060 In the words of Professor J.P. 04:18:00.220 --> 04:18:04.760 Stern of University College London, Hitler evoked a pre-industrial rustic 04:18:04.760 --> 04:18:05.160 idol. 04:18:06.100 --> 04:18:10.860 Hitler's ideologists constantly praised the organic, urged physical fitness, 04:18:11.400 --> 04:18:15.640 and used biological analogies to justify the violence they faced. 04:18:16.300 --> 04:18:20.180 Hundreds of thousands of youngsters passed through the youth movement, writes George 04:18:20.180 --> 04:18:20.400 L. 04:18:20.500 --> 04:18:25.640 Mosse in The Crisis of German Ideology, and many of them found it not very 04:18:25.640 --> 04:18:30.040 difficult to accommodate themselves to the ideological propositions of the Nazis. 04:18:30.820 --> 04:18:35.540 Can one really imagine a neo-green party with armbands, Sam Brown belts, 04:18:35.660 --> 04:18:39.200 and jackboots setting out to enforce its own view of nature on the rest of society, 04:18:39.360 --> 04:18:40.000 Toffler asks? 04:18:40.540 --> 04:18:42.800 Of course not, under normal conditions. 04:18:42.920 --> 04:18:45.080 But what if conditions are not normal? 04:18:45.640 --> 04:18:50.440 Consider the consequences of another Bhopal-like eco-catastrophe set in, 04:18:50.700 --> 04:18:54.460 say, Seattle, Stuttgart, or Sheffield, followed by back-to-back crises 04:18:54.460 --> 04:18:54.920 everywhere. 04:18:54.920 --> 04:18:56.440 We know that's going to happen, John. 04:18:56.940 --> 04:19:01.100 Followed by confusion and monstrous corruption in the disaster relief effort 04:19:01.100 --> 04:19:04.720 amid fundamentalist cries that the disaster was inflicted by God as 04:19:04.720 --> 04:19:07.280 punishment for permissiveness and immorality. 04:19:07.340 --> 04:19:09.840 We know from great controversy that's going to be the very cry. 04:19:10.620 --> 04:19:13.860 Picture all this occurring in a time of deep economic distress. 04:19:13.860 --> 04:19:19.600 Imagine an attractive, articulate eco-Adolf who promises not just to solve 04:19:19.600 --> 04:19:24.320 the immediate crisis, but to purify the society materially, morally, and 04:19:24.320 --> 04:19:27.700 politically, if only he is given extra-constitutional powers. 04:19:27.940 --> 04:19:32.460 Al Gore tells us in his book that civilization must heal itself 04:19:32.460 --> 04:19:36.200 psychologically and spiritually before we can heal our ailing environment. 04:19:36.200 --> 04:19:42.120 If these concepts take hold, it will be a direct fulfillment of what Ellen White 04:19:42.120 --> 04:19:46.600 foretold would bring in the Sunday Law crisis at the end of time. 04:19:47.060 --> 04:19:52.480 She tells us in great controversy that because the people have rejected the law 04:19:52.480 --> 04:19:57.320 of God, and notably the Sabbath, God's protecting care will be withdrawn 04:19:57.320 --> 04:20:02.960 from them, and they will be left to the machinations of Satan, who will bring all 04:20:02.960 --> 04:20:05.760 kinds of ecological catastrophe. 04:20:06.680 --> 04:20:11.340 And as a result of that, the people will say, we need to get back to God. 04:20:12.120 --> 04:20:14.060 Someone is causing this problem. 04:20:14.380 --> 04:20:17.460 Oh, we've got to find out who's causing this problem and get rid of them. 04:20:17.880 --> 04:20:18.480 That's right. 04:20:18.660 --> 04:20:22.800 And in order to save the community, save the community of the earth, 04:20:22.880 --> 04:20:25.780 you see, these people will have to be sacrificed. 04:20:25.780 --> 04:20:29.460 Oh, Bob, that's so clear how this is shaping up. 04:20:29.960 --> 04:20:30.520 That's right. 04:20:30.620 --> 04:20:31.940 It's exciting, though. 04:20:32.180 --> 04:20:36.180 I've got to admit, it's exciting to see prophecy being fulfilled like we have said 04:20:36.180 --> 04:20:37.440 for years it was going to. 04:20:37.860 --> 04:20:39.480 Well, it's very exciting, John. 04:20:39.480 --> 04:20:45.560 But one of the most shocking things of all now is that in the October 1st, 04:20:45.560 --> 04:20:53.160 1992 Adventist Review, there was a position paper put out by the North 04:20:53.160 --> 04:20:57.720 American Division officers entitled, The Church of God, Its Nature, 04:20:57.960 --> 04:20:59.100 Function, and Authority. 04:20:59.480 --> 04:20:59.640 Yes. 04:20:59.860 --> 04:21:07.300 This paper is absolutely shocking because it marks a decisive paradigm shift from 04:21:07.300 --> 04:21:09.280 what Adventism has taught in the past. 04:21:09.280 --> 04:21:11.300 Regarding salvation in the church. 04:21:11.400 --> 04:21:12.180 And you know what, Bob? 04:21:12.320 --> 04:21:14.140 Our people didn't see it. 04:21:14.300 --> 04:21:18.540 I bet you one in a hundred people, Seventh-day Adventists who read that 04:21:18.540 --> 04:21:22.860 article, that position paper, on the church in the recent Adventist Review, 04:21:23.240 --> 04:21:25.660 did not even pick up what it was. 04:21:25.720 --> 04:21:27.900 That is a Catholic document. 04:21:27.900 --> 04:21:33.060 All through it, John, there is the emphasis on the community of faith. 04:21:33.540 --> 04:21:34.320 The community. 04:21:34.500 --> 04:21:35.060 The community. 04:21:35.200 --> 04:21:35.640 The community. 04:21:36.120 --> 04:21:36.800 Solidarity. 04:21:37.260 --> 04:21:38.900 Good Roman Catholic terms. 04:21:38.900 --> 04:21:47.180 And community, for the Roman Catholic, the meaning of this is pointed out in Carl 04:21:47.180 --> 04:21:51.800 Rayner and Heinrich Frey's book on the unity of the churches, where they state 04:21:51.800 --> 04:21:57.660 that this community of faith is necessary for all of the churches to come together, 04:21:58.060 --> 04:22:03.440 and that it means that the community has the primacy over the individual. 04:22:03.440 --> 04:22:08.720 And so, community now is the big term instead of personal salvation, 04:22:09.000 --> 04:22:11.860 which Martin Luther and the other Reformers emphasized. 04:22:11.980 --> 04:22:13.880 That's what the Protestant Reformation was all about. 04:22:13.880 --> 04:22:18.340 And so, we've basically abandoned the fundamental Protestant principle of 04:22:18.340 --> 04:22:24.220 personal salvation and the primacy of a conscience bound directly by the Word of 04:22:24.220 --> 04:22:26.240 God to the Lord Himself. 04:22:27.400 --> 04:22:33.180 Instead of that, now we are accepting the Roman Catholic terminology and concepts of 04:22:33.180 --> 04:22:39.360 the community being foremost and having the primacy over the individual. 04:22:39.360 --> 04:22:43.360 Now, some very shocking things emerge in this document. 04:22:43.560 --> 04:22:49.300 For instance, we read that the local church is fully equipped by the Spirit and 04:22:49.300 --> 04:22:53.540 recognized as being capable of acting on behalf of the risen Lord. 04:22:53.600 --> 04:22:58.140 Well, that's the whole idea of the Pope being the vicar of Christ. 04:22:58.280 --> 04:23:00.640 He acts on behalf of God. 04:23:01.000 --> 04:23:05.740 And the next sentence says, the local church becomes the port of entry to the 04:23:05.740 --> 04:23:06.620 kingdom of God. 04:23:06.980 --> 04:23:09.040 Well, the Bible certainly doesn't teach that. 04:23:09.040 --> 04:23:09.820 Amen. 04:23:10.020 --> 04:23:11.140 That's right out of Catholicism. 04:23:12.060 --> 04:23:13.040 Jesus, that's right. 04:23:13.240 --> 04:23:15.360 Oh, that just makes my skin crawl, Bob. 04:23:15.580 --> 04:23:21.400 Jesus said that the straight gate of entry to the kingdom of God is the gate of 04:23:21.400 --> 04:23:23.620 self-surrender in the Sermon on the Mount. 04:23:23.740 --> 04:23:28.380 And Ellen White has a tremendous commentary on that in Thoughts from the 04:23:28.380 --> 04:23:34.880 Mount of Blessings about how we have to leave behind all self and all sin to enter 04:23:34.880 --> 04:23:38.720 this true gate to the kingdom of God. 04:23:38.720 --> 04:23:47.060 And so, in this area, we see the Roman Catholic concept of the church being the 04:23:47.060 --> 04:23:48.380 port of entry to the kingdom of God. 04:23:48.460 --> 04:23:53.060 Now, if a person is put back out of that port of entry by the local church... 04:23:53.060 --> 04:23:54.260 Then you've lost the kingdom. 04:23:54.540 --> 04:23:55.620 They're outside the kingdom. 04:23:55.620 --> 04:23:56.640 You're going to hell. 04:23:56.640 --> 04:24:04.020 Now, the next couple paragraphs are even more shocking as we go along. 04:24:04.860 --> 04:24:10.060 Because we read in the New Testament, local churches exercise the highest 04:24:10.060 --> 04:24:11.580 ecclesiastical functions. 04:24:12.300 --> 04:24:15.420 The first point mentioned is control of the members. 04:24:16.060 --> 04:24:19.640 Well, is this the most important function of the local church? 04:24:19.720 --> 04:24:20.700 Control of the members? 04:24:20.700 --> 04:24:27.100 Ellen White is very clear that we are called in the church to service and not 04:24:27.100 --> 04:24:27.640 control. 04:24:28.320 --> 04:24:32.340 And that the church is to be controlled not by man, but by God. 04:24:32.980 --> 04:24:38.620 And so, once again, we find a position of direct defiance of the word of the Lord. 04:24:39.380 --> 04:24:42.240 There are some other very interesting terms in here, John. 04:24:42.920 --> 04:24:54.140 For instance, we see that the basic identifier that is used for Seventh-day 04:24:54.140 --> 04:25:00.260 Adventism being a biblical church are right out of the Nicene-Constantinople 04:25:00.260 --> 04:25:00.760 Creed. 04:25:01.820 --> 04:25:06.100 And I'm reading now from the document, the four classical marks of the biblical 04:25:06.100 --> 04:25:08.100 church apply to Seventh-day Adventism. 04:25:08.240 --> 04:25:12.100 It's holiness in Jesus Christ, it's catholicity, universality, 04:25:12.740 --> 04:25:16.360 it's apostolicity in harmony with the witness of the apostle founders, 04:25:16.500 --> 04:25:19.420 it's unity, one Lord, one faith, one baptism. 04:25:19.980 --> 04:25:26.900 Now, that formula of the church being holy, catholic, apostolic, and one is the 04:25:26.900 --> 04:25:32.260 fundamental determiner of the ecumenical movement. 04:25:32.260 --> 04:25:38.680 The ecumenical movement harks back to the Nicene-Constantinople Creed of 381, 04:25:38.760 --> 04:25:45.000 the longer form of that, to be the fundamental foundation stone for the 04:25:45.000 --> 04:25:46.160 ecumenical movement. 04:25:46.800 --> 04:25:52.040 And we are coming out in the next Freedom's Ring with an analysis of this 04:25:52.040 --> 04:26:00.580 paper, and we go into an analysis of this Nicene-Constantinople formula that appears 04:26:00.580 --> 04:26:01.020 here. 04:26:01.020 --> 04:26:08.380 It's interesting that Dr. Hans Kuhn, who is one of the most noted dissident 04:26:08.380 --> 04:26:14.180 Roman Catholic theologians, very renowned and distinguished scholar, in his book, 04:26:14.300 --> 04:26:19.520 The Church, has a chapter on each of these aspects of the church, that it is 04:26:19.520 --> 04:26:23.580 catholic, holy, apostolic, and one. 04:26:24.120 --> 04:26:29.880 And in this chapter on its catholicity, on it being catholic, he notes that the 04:26:29.880 --> 04:26:34.300 term catholic is never applied to the church in the New Testament. 04:26:35.020 --> 04:26:40.180 And then he goes into the historical ramifications of this, and how the early 04:26:40.180 --> 04:26:44.920 church fathers began applying the term catholic, meaning universal, such as the 04:26:44.920 --> 04:26:51.220 intent, supposedly, of this paper, but how this developed rapidly into a 04:26:51.220 --> 04:26:56.700 polemical usage of the term catholic to try to distinguish one element of the 04:26:56.700 --> 04:27:04.480 church over against the heretics, and how finally it became codified in law, 04:27:05.160 --> 04:27:09.940 and everyone was required under the emperor Theodosius, who followed 04:27:09.940 --> 04:27:17.940 Constantine, to be catholic or be under penalty of law as a heretic or a pagan, 04:27:17.940 --> 04:27:24.400 and then how the Holy Roman Empire carried on in their canon law. 04:27:25.780 --> 04:27:29.200 Bob, we've got about three minutes left on this tape. 04:27:29.940 --> 04:27:35.820 Okay, and so this led ultimately, just the use of this term catholic, 04:27:36.400 --> 04:27:41.600 and its eventual codification in law and the meanings that it came to develop 04:27:41.600 --> 04:27:45.020 around it, resulted in the death of millions of people. 04:27:45.020 --> 04:27:50.140 And so we also find the concept of collegiality in this document, 04:27:50.280 --> 04:27:56.680 which is right out of Vatican II by Roman Catholic Confession itself, and 04:27:56.680 --> 04:28:04.980 fraternity, a lot of Roman Catholic terms and concepts that are now codified in a 04:28:04.980 --> 04:28:05.840 position paper. 04:28:06.260 --> 04:28:12.140 So this marks a decided shift toward this concept of community taking the primacy 04:28:12.140 --> 04:28:14.480 over the individual within our church. 04:28:14.480 --> 04:28:18.240 But Bob, if our people were just reading and studying, they could see this. 04:28:18.340 --> 04:28:21.880 Praise God, the Lord has raised you up to warn our people of these things, 04:28:21.940 --> 04:28:25.460 and hopefully people are watching these videos so that when they read this kind of 04:28:25.460 --> 04:28:28.880 thing, Bob, they can see what this is and not be fooled. 04:28:29.420 --> 04:28:30.260 Well, this is... 04:28:30.260 --> 04:28:31.140 It sounds so pious! 04:28:31.540 --> 04:28:37.580 Because as a people, we are called to maintain the purity and the liberty of the 04:28:37.580 --> 04:28:41.260 gospel, not only in our proclamation, but in our personal lives. 04:28:41.260 --> 04:28:46.100 And it's only as we really cherish these principles of true Protestantism, 04:28:46.440 --> 04:28:51.100 of pure gospel liberty in our own lives, because where the Spirit of the Lord is, 04:28:51.180 --> 04:28:56.400 there is liberty, and where the law of the Lord is, there is the perfect law of 04:28:56.400 --> 04:28:56.760 liberty. 04:28:57.220 --> 04:29:02.500 Only as we cherish these in our personal lives will we have the security and the 04:29:02.500 --> 04:29:08.060 peace and the joy and the strength to combat this overwhelming apostasy that is 04:29:08.060 --> 04:29:13.120 coming in, in asserting community rights over the individual, which will ultimately 04:29:13.120 --> 04:29:17.820 lead to the universal death decree, which will be patterned right after the 04:29:17.820 --> 04:29:23.920 words of Caiaphas, it is better that this people perish than that whole nations be 04:29:23.920 --> 04:29:25.900 cast into confusion. 04:29:26.840 --> 04:29:30.920 Well, Bob, I thank you so much for permitting the Lord to use you in the way 04:29:30.920 --> 04:29:34.580 that He is using you in such a mighty way to wake up our Adventist people. 04:29:34.680 --> 04:29:40.080 May God continue to be with you in safety and giving you wisdom, and for us to have 04:29:40.080 --> 04:29:41.500 access to the Adventist people. 04:29:42.060 --> 04:29:43.020 God bless you, John. 04:29:43.100 --> 04:29:44.140 May God bless you, Bob. 04:29:44.300 --> 04:29:47.880 A distinct pleasure working with you once again, and we wish God's richest blessing 04:29:47.880 --> 04:29:48.880 on you and your ministry. 04:29:49.080 --> 04:29:49.680 The feeling is mutual. 04:29:50.320 --> 04:29:50.820 Thanks now. 04:29:51.040 --> 04:29:51.440 Bye-bye. 04:29:51.560 --> 04:29:51.820 Bye-bye. 04:29:54.680 --> 04:29:58.240 Till we meet again, may God bless you.
