Greetings.
My name is Jack Chick, and in many places across the country, my name is Mud.
But I find consolation in the scriptures.
In the book of Luke, chapter 6, verse 26, the Lord Jesus Himself said,
Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you, for so did their fathers to
the false prophets.
If we go to the book of Galatians, first chapter, verse 10, the Apostle Paul
said, For do I now persuade men, or God?
Or do I seek to please men?
For if I yet please men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
So I praise God for the Apostle Paul.
Beloved, this is my position today.
I am not out to please men, and today I'm paying a price for it.
A number of years ago, Chick Publication was a respected Christian publishing
house.
I had no problems.
I had many friends.
Many pastors would call me and say, Jack, let's have lunch.
At the Christian booksellers' convention, people would stop in great numbers and
say, We love your books.
We love your books, Jack.
You're doing a marvelous job.
Then I took a turn.
I started calling sin, sin.
The first book that I came up with that really hit hard was a little book called
The Gay Blade.
When that book was published, then I saw the queers and the homosexuals and the
sodomites come out of the closets with all kinds of threats that they were going to
bomb Chick Publications.
They're going to get even.
And the hate that spewed over the telephone to my secretaries and the girls
working in the office was completely obscene.
And then I saw another one rise up years later, and that was Anita Bryant.
God bless Anita Bryant.
She stood in the front lines.
She was in a battle.
Where was the support from the great Christian leaders?
Very little.
She had to be taken down by the system, and they craftily worked.
They set her up, wore her out, and destroyed her and destroyed her
family.
At least they destroyed her Christian testimony.
It was a great victory for the forces of darkness.
My heart goes out to Anita Bryant.
You should continue to lift her up in your prayers.
Beloved, it's so easy to criticize, to tear down people when they're trying to
stand for something.
We're living in an age now where nobody makes a stand.
It's the popular thing to do.
I have a friend that's preaching the gospel of pastor.
He's trying to expose the horror of Revelation on Wednesday nights.
I went over to visit him a couple of weeks ago, and he called his fellow pastors and
said, Beloved, who do you think the horror is of Revelation 17?
And all his pastor friends says, Oh, we know who that is.
That's the Roman Catholic Church.
He says, Okay, are you going to preach against it?
I said, Are you kidding?
Man, that's insane.
No way.
I wouldn't touch that with a 20-foot pole.
Well, Beloved, this is what I've done.
God has put me in as a Christian publisher.
He has given me a responsibility to speak to the body of Christ.
And if I pray before the Lord and the Lord gives me a direction where I have to
expose sin and attack, then by God's grace, I will do this thing.
A lot of things have crossed my desk, and I'd like to share them with you.
But first, I'd like to go into prayer.
Let's bow our heads.
Dear Heavenly Father and Lord, I come before you right now, Lord,
and ask you to guide my mouth and my mind, that you will use this tape, Lord,
to waken the brethren in Christ to an awful danger that's on the horizon,
Lord.
And let them realize that the words I speak is not one of hate, but one of love
for the Roman Catholics, Lord, to follow the commandment you gave in the
book of Revelation to lead these dear ones who have been so trapped, to lead them out
into victory and into Christ Jesus, Lord.
Because you've said in your word, come out of her my people, that ye be not
partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.
Help me, Lord, to speak the words you would have me to say on this tape.
In Jesus' precious name we pray.
Amen.
The question comes up, why am I exposing Rome, when everything is so cozy,
when the Christians are so happy, everything is so peaceful, we've all come
together as one big happy group.
Why should I be the fly in the ointment?
Beloved, if I say that the Roman Catholic Church is a part of the body of Christ,
then I have betrayed the Roman Catholics, and I have betrayed the body of Christ.
Rome is an imposter.
She is the most cleverly, wicked, religious system that this world has ever
seen.
She has caused more blood, more pain, more suffering than any other organization
on the face of this earth.
Do I sound like I'm mad?
Do I sound like a voice crying in the wilderness?
Beloved, let me give you a few names who believed with all their heart two things.
This is what all these men had in common, and these were great Protestant leaders of
the past.
They all believed these two things.
Number one, that the Whore of Revelation is indeed the Roman Catholic Institution,
and this is another fact.
They all believed that the Pope is an Antichrist.
Listen to these names, and I want you to listen well.
Wycliffe, Martin Luther, John Calvin, Tyndale, John Knox, Sir Isaac Newton,
Fox, the writer of Fox's book on Christian martyrs, John Bunyan, who wrote Pilgrim's
Progress, Wesley, Jonathan Edwards, A.
B.
Simpson, founder of Christian Missionary Alliance, Reverend Hislop, who wrote the
two Babylons, Dr. Hudson Taylor, one of those great men of God out there in
China, Spurgeon, Reverend Goforth, who was in China, another great man of
God, Finney, and Twydell Moody.
What has happened?
What in the world has happened to make the Christians of today have a completely
different concept of the Vatican?
How is it that today you'll see priests and nuns and monks coming to visit
churches?
They get up on the platform, and they're praying, and they're still in the kingdom
of darkness.
And it boils down to two things.
Either you're saved, or you're lost.
You're in the kingdom of light, or you're in the kingdom of darkness.
If you have read 50 years in the Church of Rome, if you've read The Big Betrayal,
or Alberto, or Double Cross, I'm so sick of people calling me up and saying,
why did you write that book, blah, blah, blah, blah, on the phone?
And I say, hey, did you read it?
Did you read it?
No.
I just read stories about it.
I've read newspaper articles.
Beloved, read the book carefully, very, very carefully.
Read them, and you're going to learn things.
And it will prove without the slightest doubt that a Roman Catholic is not saved.
When these Catholics are really born again, and they really mean business,
and their hearts are really pricked with the Word of God, these precious ones are
going to say, I cannot sit in on a Mass anymore.
According to the Word of God, Jesus was crucified once for all time.
And when they take him on the Mass, beloved, they're crucifying 24 hours a
day.
It's a continuous sacrifice going on.
It's completely anti-scriptural.
And they allow these priests, and nuns, and monks to get up on these platforms.
And they're praising God, and calling them brothers and sisters.
You know what the Word of God says?
Listen to this.
It's found in 2 Corinthians chapter 6, verses 14 through 18.
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers.
For what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
And what communion hath light with darkness?
And what concord hath Christ with Belial?
Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
Now what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?
For ye are the temple of the living God.
As God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them, and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
Wherefore, come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord,
and touch not the unclean thing.
And I will receive you, and will be a father unto you, and ye shall be my sons
and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Now what can be clearer than that?
The Lord wants holiness and separation.
We are a peculiar people.
We have been called out.
We are the elect.
Beloved, we are to be light shining in the darkness, and we are to have nothing to do
with the powers of darkness.
I'm going to try to explain something to you that has transpired over the years,
where I believe most of the pastors have been crippled in the United States,
even starting back into the theological seminaries.
As Dr. Revere has shared with me, the infiltration that has taken place over
a period of 400 years to destroy our denominations, Rome has done a beautiful
job on us.
If I were a Jesuit, I couldn't have thought of a better way to take the
Protestants under than the way they've done.
Look how they did it.
If you've read Sabotage, our book on how they wiped out the King James Bible,
I said to Alberto, which is the real Bible?
Which is the Word of God?
And he says, all the Jesuits know, Jack, that it's the King James Bible.
They didn't know that.
That's why they've been working for years, centuries, to destroy it.
I've even talked to people who'd been in witchcraft, and they said, Jack,
we wouldn't be caught dead with a King James Bible in a seance, because we know
it's the Word of God.
So, anyway, Rome did a good job.
They dumped our King James Bible.
It's been ridiculed.
I talked to pastors, and they said, Brother Jack, no, no, I preach with the
King James.
I preach with it, but quietly and behind the scenes, I study the other versions.
That's why none of the pastors today can stand up and say, thus sayeth the Lord,
because they don't believe it.
Their teachers in the theological seminaries taught them differently.
We have two kids working at Chick Publications.
They went to a theological seminary, a Baptist one, and they said, we believe
the King James is the Word of God, and you know what?
All the kids in the school were saying, heretics, heretics, heretics.
They said, if you believe the King James is the Word of God, we'll throw you out.
You keep your mouth shut.
Jesuits have done a great job.
They wiped out our theological seminaries.
They wiped out most of the Christian publishing houses, scared to death to
print anything controversial.
None of them would print anything against Rome.
They don't want to take the financial beating Chick Publications is going
through.
Are we bleeding?
You bet your life we are.
But God's going to vindicate us, and we're going to come through this
thing, and God's going to bless us, because we've made a stand.
So, they've taken the Bible away from us, wiped out most of the publishing houses.
Our denominations are completely infiltrated.
Look what's happened to the gospel bookstores.
Try to go around, try to find some of our books, see where you can get them.
You go into one bookstore after another and say, oh, I'm sorry, we don't carry
that anymore.
Well, they'll come up with some reason.
Let me tell you, beloved, if you cannot get a copy of the Gospel of the of Alberto
or Doublecross or The Big Betrayal, do me a favor.
We've got plenty of them at Chick Publications.
We've got plenty of people there ready to pack them up and send them to you.
Write Chick Publications, Post Office Box 662, Chino, C-H-I-N-O, California,
91710.
We'd be delighted to send you these books.
We'll send you a catalog and let you know all the things we're carrying now.
Our job is to supply you with ammunition to win souls to Christ.
That's our whole purpose at Chick Publications.
We are a soul-winning ministry.
We're out to win people.
I'm so sick of this hate literature campaign that's going on.
Can I read something to you from a paper?
This came from Canada.
Someone sent it to me.
The Globe and Mail is the name of the paper, Saturday, June 20th, 1981.
Caption is Comic Books on Catholics Face Hate Literature Probe.
Then we get into the text.
It says, The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto has asked the Ontario Attorney
General's Office to find out if religious comic books distributed here are hate
literature.
The two most controversial, Alberto and Doublecross, allegedly present the
confessions of an ex-Jesuit priest and depict the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic
Church as a group of cigar-smoking, wild-eyed clerics who will stop at
nothing, even murder, to subvert Protestantism.
The Archdiocese made the request directly to Attorney General Roy McMurtry after
being deluged by calls about the evangelical comics, said Margaret
McLaughlin, Assistant Communications Director.
If the material can possibly be interpreted as hate literature,
it will be sent to the Metro Police for criminal investigation, said John Takack,
Director of Crown Attorneys, whose office is now reviewing the literature.
Crusader Comics, a series of 13 full-coloured, lurid booklets published by
Chick Publications in Chino, California, have achieved notoriety wherever they have
been sold in North America.
Roman Catholics and ecumenical Protestants both charge that the comics distributed by
Christ is the Answer, Incorporated, a Toronto non-profit charitable
organization, are vicious and hateful.
It's going to generate hate, said Reverend William Ryan, National Director of the
Society of Jesus.
Did you get that, beloved?
Ryan is the National Director of the Jesuit Order in Canada.
He is number one.
Ryan goes on to say, quote, there is nothing Christian about it.
What a pile of baloney.
These boys are very, very clever.
Now let me tell you something about the Jesuits.
I want to respect those guys.
I have more respect for them than I do for most of the pastors in the U.S.
If you get a Jesuit who is under the extreme oath and induction, do you know
that man is ready to commit his life unto death for the Pope?
I wish that God, most of our pastors would be willing to risk their lives unto death
for the Lord Jesus Christ and be messengers of God with flaming swords,
holding up the gospel, and out there winning souls and fearless.
Somebody said in England years ago, give me 300 men who feared God more than
they feared man, and we could turn the world upside down.
I wish to God we had pastors like that in this country.
The only way we're going to get them is when we're broken, we're down on our
faces, crying to God for a heaven-sent revival and blood, because that's the only
thing that's going to save the U.S.
Rome is coming in like a steamroller from every direction, and these pastors have no
idea what's coming.
They're often never neverland, dreaming that it's going to pass by,
everything's going to be happy again, chicks going to get off his little
soapbox.
I'm not beloved.
This is a war to the death.
And let me tell you what's going to happen.
If we cannot pull this thing off by December with a new book that's coming,
it's called Godfathers.
If we cannot waken the Christians, God help our children and our
grandchildren, because we're playing right into the hands of the enemy.
You're going to see another Inquisition sweep across the world, and it's going to
hit the United States, and there's going to be suffering like you have never
imagined, nothing you have ever seen in your lifetime like it.
Now, what do I base this on?
Historically, we have gone into some of the background of what transpired in World
War I and II.
Alberto told me that the popes were behind both of those wars.
What we had was actually a religious wars.
They weren't political, they were religious wars instigated and set up by
the Jesuits and the popes.
It sounds far-fetched, I know.
Alberto told me that, and I says, oh boy, how in the world am I going to
publish anything like this, you know, just on his say-so?
And he explained how he was trained in the Vatican, how he sat under the leadership
of Augustine Cardinal Bia, who was the... this man was the father confessor for Pius
XII, and he gave them a shot of history, and all the kids sitting in there were all
Jesuits under the extreme oath.
They weren't kids, they were dedicated Green Berets for the Vatican.
And he shared certain information.
So Alberto gave me this information, and I racked my brains.
I says, Lord, how am I going to get this into a book?
I can't back it up.
Well, I'll tell you, the Lord moved and sent us documentation from London.
The Protestant League over there, bless their heart, they gave us some
books, and then other materials started coming from Australia and different parts
of the world.
What a picture!
What an incredible story!
Did you know something?
Adolf Hitler was a good Roman Catholic.
In fact, the Catholics got Hitler into power, and they were making a deal.
A lot of hanky-panky was going on behind the scenes.
And it was a Catholic vote that threw Hitler in to make him dictator.
And the Pope said, we will back you with our finances.
We will give you all the support you need to build an army, to conquer the world if
need be.
But the one thing you have to do is sign a Concordat.
Ever heard that word before?
Concordat?
I think it's C-O-N-C-O-R-D-A-T.
Concordat.
This is an agreement between a nation and the Vatican.
And when the nation signs this with the Vatican, you've got to remember now the
Vatican is a nation all by itself.
Did you know that?
It's got a president, constitution, it's got money, it's got a secretary of
state.
On those acres right there is a complete nation in itself.
An interesting thing, every member of the Roman Catholic institution that's been
confirmed becomes a citizen of the state of the Vatican.
So Hitler had 33 concentration camps already set to go when the Vatican signed
the Concordat with Germany.
And that night, when that document was signed, guess what?
Anyone who was not Roman Catholic became an enemy of the state.
The Jews became the enemy of the state.
The Protestants became an enemy of the state.
The Socialists became an enemy of the state.
Anyone who was not Roman Catholic became enemies.
Do you know how many died in those concentration camps?
Close to 23 million dead.
That included the six million Jews.
Well, let me tell you, beloved, if our pastors don't wake up and have
courage and backbone, I wish those that don't would just pack off and go into some
other profession.
I'm so sick of these turkeys calling themselves men of God and they're linked
with the National Council of Churches.
They don't believe the Bible.
They don't believe the virgin birth.
They believe nothing.
And yet they're standing up there week after week, sounding off in these pulpits,
and they don't believe anything they're talking about.
I just wish that God, at least the men of God, would stand up and start preaching
against the whore and telling the Christians and naming sin calling it by
name.
You know that Finney once pointed out, and he says, the nation will fall because
of the pastors that are preaching the gospel.
If they water it down, the nation goes under.
We're going under, beloved.
I believe we're going to sign a concordat with the Vatican.
And if we do, we're going to be hauled away in trucks in all directions.
They'll be taking us up to the metal institutions somewhere up in Alaska.
If we do not start giving the word, the Catholics are going to eat us up.
The only way to stop it is to win the Catholics to Christ.
Rome was so dumb during that Vatican II council, they told the Catholics over here
they could start reading the Bible.
Now they're wide open for the gospel.
I tell you, the fields are wide under harvest.
More Catholics are being saved today because of Alberto, the book, than you can
imagine.
We print two dumb little comic books and the world goes crazy.
We have been...
Listen to this.
In Singapore, beloved, do you know that anyone reading Alberto will be
excommunicated and go to hell?
That's from the Bishop of Singapore.
The word is out all through South America, Central America.
They're boycotting this book.
They are scared to death of it.
And they have very good reason to.
Where do you find a Jesuit under the extreme oath to come out?
People say, oh no, he's a phony.
Alberto is no phony.
They said, well, you have to give us all proof.
We gave you all the proof we could.
For crying out loud, we took the little identification card that was given to him
by...
It wasn't given to him by the Vatican.
It was given to him under Franco's regime in Spain.
Do you realize that when Alberto had to get that card, his ID card, in a
dictatorship, it was just as hard as going before the Gestapo.
He had to prove without a shadow of a doubt with every kind of documentation,
birth certificate, certificates of his family.
Alberto had to go through at least seven strong agencies and prove every statement
he said to prove he was a priest.
And that was the document we printed in Alberto.
In fact, when we printed that, we did a four-color separation on that
card.
And the yellow pattern that came up, there's no way under the sun that thing
could have ever been a forgery.
It was beautiful, beautiful artwork.
And it could not be seen with the naked eye.
It had to be seen through a camera.
And I've seen documents that Dr. Rivera's had.
He showed me letters from his sister after he had taken her out of the convent in
London.
She wrote him four letters that I saw.
Alberto's for real.
I would not stick my neck out on the man if I didn't know within my heart,
and having seen hard evidence, that the man is what he claims to be.
And Rome has got to shut his mouth.
They're going to try every way under the sun to discredit him.
But let me tell you, beloved, when our new book comes out, I'm not using Dr. Rivera's
sources.
I don't know how many books I've found that he's backing up everything the man
has said.
And if the Christians do not believe what's coming up in the next book,
Godfather, then God help us here in the U .S.
You know, a funny thing happened the other day.
I was working on The Godfather, and we were doing research.
Telephone rings.
It's a kid calling.
I guess it's from Ohio.
Turned out there was a Christian radio broadcast, and evidently someone called
in, making sure it would go all over the country, at least back in that region.
Said, oh, did you hear the latest?
Jack Chick met with Walter Martin and confided and told him that Dr. Rivera was
never the real, that was all a figment of my imagination.
Can you imagine that?
These guys are clever.
These guys are something else.
It takes a lot of chutzpah to do something like that.
We're at war.
I don't hate these people for what they're doing, but it's going to backfire.
Let me tell you another interesting thing I think you're going to find quite
startling.
I have a brother of mine that went behind the Iron Curtain, and he was attacked by
Russian attack dogs while he was over there.
He was taking Bibles, sleeping in the fields, and he saw the suffering and the
misery that our brethren are going through.
Would you please turn the tape over on the other side?
Thank you.
As I was saying, he saw the suffering and misery that the Christian brothers over
there behind the Iron Curtain were going through, but yet through all their
suffering, even though somebody is picked up, given 14 years for passing out a
gospel tract, even that this took place, there was a joy and a peace and a love and
a strength and a vibrance within that body of Christian believers over there in
Russia, beyond anything we have here because of the suffering and the
persecution they're going through.
The day may come when God is going to hit persecution on this country, where it will
pull the Christians together.
And anyway, when this brother of mine, we'll call him Brother Emanuel,
he went down into Australia, and he took with him a copy of Double Cross.
When he took in the copy of Double Cross, these people were so outraged,
so stunned when they read it, that they said, you are an agent of Jack Chick.
We're going to shut your mouth.
We're going to fix you.
We're going to fix those people who carry these books.
In other words, a reign of terror.
Here comes the old technique used by Hitler and his shock troops with the
Nazis, you know, terrorize, pressure, push.
They're doing the same thing in our gospel bookstores.
The strong-armed boys are coming in, pressuring these poor little mom and dad
operations, scaring them, some they have never touched, but others they have raised
almost a reign of terror, telling they're going to burn them down, blow them up,
and so on, so these people back off.
I can understand.
I appreciate what they're going through.
But here this thing was going full bore down there in Australia.
They were really coming in on Brother Emanuel.
They said, we are finished.
You're destroyed.
We'll never let you speak in another church that we're associated with again.
And he was in absolute shock.
And then one time, during this period of a few days, a brother came up to him,
a Christian pastor, and says, he says, Brother Emanuel, he says, I've got to tell
you, he says, things are so bad here that if I opened my mouth and talked about
Rome, the following day they'd put me in a mental institution.
And Brother Emanuel said, Jack, I was in more danger in Australia than I
was behind the Iron Curtain.
It's incredible, incredible how fear can move so fast, so fast.
And it's moving this way in the United States.
We've got the freedom.
We've got the power to stand up and shout from the rooftops that Rome is a horror of
revelation.
But she's going to shut our mouths if she can.
Rome has launched an assault against the United States, the Jesuits did,
right after the Civil War, when Lincoln was killed by the Jesuits.
And everybody hushed it up.
They wanted it kept quiet.
The politicians were scared.
It was an awesome thing.
They knew that if the word got out that the Catholic Church was behind the
assassination of Lincoln, all hell would break loose in the northern and in the
south.
And that's in the 50 Years of the Church of Rome book that we publish here at Chipp
Publication.
It's probably one of the greatest Christian classics that's ever been
written.
And I mean, it lays this whole thing open, wide open.
That's why we took and illustrated it and turned it into The Big Betrayal.
Beloved, you've got to read these books.
You've got to know what's going on.
Most of the stuff has disappeared in our libraries.
You've got to know what went on in history.
And right after the Civil War, when Rome realized that none of the
politicians would have guts enough to say, hey, they killed our president.
It was a big hush hush.
Don't talk about it.
And so at that point, the Jesuits launched the full-scale assault on the United
States to take it under.
Then came World War I and World War II.
And do you know what stopped it?
Protestant America and Protestant England took under the Catholic Kaiser and the
Catholic Adolf Hitler.
When we publish our book, Godfather, coming up at Christmas time, we're going
to give you documentation and backup to prove that the Jesuits were behind World
War II.
You'll find that Himmler and the Gestapo was controlled strictly by Jesuits.
This thing was a religious war.
In other words, it was not just the Inquisition moving as it did in the times
of the Spanish Inquisition, you know, wearing the Dominican robes of these
Dominican monks who tortured and destroyed and decimated the Christians.
These were Nazi uniforms being used by Roman Catholics to instigate an
Inquisition across Europe and thank God, Protestant America stopped them in their
tracks.
Protestant America.
Now what happened in 30 years?
In 30 years, the Jesuits have been so effective in their war against us that
they have stopped and ended a Protestant America.
There is no more Protestant America.
Are they Protestant bookstores?
No way.
They used to be Gospel bookstores.
Today, they're Christian bookstores.
Everything's Christian.
Catholics are Christian.
Protestants are Christian.
What happened?
The offensive launched by the Jesuits has been a masterpiece.
But I'll tell you, when we came up with Alberto, we saw their legs out from under
them, and they were so mad they couldn't see straight.
That's why they launched this full-scale assault against Chick Publications.
I mean, it's a full-scale war to discredit Alberto.
He told the truth that Alberto had double-crossed.
Beloved, it is the Gospel truth that we are giving out.
And Rome has got to get everybody's attention off what we have said and
crucify Alberto, crucify Chick Publications.
I say these people are insane.
They have to see it.
I said to Alberto the other day, Alberto, how effective do you think this
book is?
He says, oh, Jack.
He says, with a number of Roman Catholics being saved across this country.
And believe me, when a Roman Catholic gets saved, this guy is so outraged at being
betrayed by Rome, he'll buy 50 copies of Alberto to go out and say, I'm not going
to let my relatives go to hell.
I'm going to win them to Christ.
And I'll tell you, these Catholics who get saved will turn the world upside down.
And this is the thing that has frightened the Roman system, beloved.
They are scared to death of this book.
They have to do everything under the sun to stop it.
When the Christians wake up and say, hey, we've got something that's going to
win these dear Romans to Christ, then we're going to see a change.
That's why I want you as a Christian believer, beloved, if you have relatives
or friends that are Roman Catholic, write to Chick Publications and say,
hey, I need 10, 20, 30 copies of Alberto.
We'll get them to you.
Write us.
We'll give you the price.
We'll send you catalogs.
We'll give you everything you need, because this is the ammunition that's
going to win these dear ones to Christ.
No wonder they're upset.
Alberto says, we have put them back years to block this cocker dab that's coming.
And we need fighters.
And I'll tell you, beloved, an army is going to build, and it is starting right
now.
Out there, there are Christians who are saying, Jack, thank God for what you're
doing, brother.
We're behind you.
You see the letters pouring in from believers across this nation.
In Canada, all across the world, they're saying, thank God somebody is
making a stand.
And we're behind you, brother.
And they say, look, there are 7,000 that have not bowed their knee to Baal.
Thank God for that.
You know, when I first started, and I prayed, and I says, oh Lord,
do you want me to hit the whore?
That's the one thing I never wanted to do as a Christian publisher.
I thought, oh brother, I want to sidestep this.
But when Alberto came to me and said, Jack, you have no idea how close the U.S.
is to going under.
I prayed, I prayed, I says, Lord, do you want me to do this?
Do you want me to hit Rome?
And I got on the word, and I read it, and I prayed, and then I felt in my heart,
this is the job that God had set Chick Publications up for, is to sound the
alarm, to stand in the gap, to be able to sound the trumpet and say, look,
beloved, they're coming after us, and now we have to go after them and win
them to Christ in love, and hand them this material.
And beloved, God has given us some great material, and we're going to stop this
thing, and we're going to save our kids and our grandchildren.
But you've got to be a part of this thing, beloved.
Don't be worried about neighbors, and relatives, and church members.
More Christians have fallen because some turkey raises his eyebrow and says,
oh brother, I don't know.
Look, we are soldiers.
You've got to put on the full armor of God.
You have to do that daily.
Wake up in the morning, commit your life to Christ, put on the full armor of God,
and go into combat.
Let's turn to Ephesians 6.
This is a great, great portion of Scripture.
It says here, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of
his might.
Beloved, that's thus saith the Lord.
He says, Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the
wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.
Wherefore, take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand
in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the
breastplate of righteousness, and your feet shod with the preparation of the
gospel of peace.
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all
the fiery darts of the wicked, and take the helmet of salvation,
and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Beloved, we are in combat, and that's the reason we are here.
We are fighting the forces of darkness.
And Rome is the center of Satan's power here on earth.
And beloved, we can cut this thing to shreds, because we have the light,
and we have the power.
Why be full of fear?
Because Christ said, fear not.
Let me give you a great scripture.
When I knew I was going to have to hit the whore of Revelation, I had fear in my
heart.
I had a dear brother come up to me, and he said, Jack, I'm going to give you a
scripture, and then I'm going to give you a paraphrase.
1 John 4, chapter 4, verse 4, Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome
them, because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.
And he says, Jack, greater is he that is in you than the whole Roman Catholic
institution.
Praise God!
That was the courage I needed.
I needed that, and that was the courage I really needed.
And I went out, and we started the assault.
And I thank God the war is underway.
I thank God for every blast I'm getting in the newspaper.
I thank God for the blast I got in U.S.
News & World Report.
I thank God for all of the names I'm being called.
They did this to my Lord, and we've got to expect this.
It's the joy of suffering for Him, but we're doing a job.
Beloved, we're just here on this horizon for an instant.
We appear like a vapor, and then we're gone.
Our lives are going by so fast, and what we do for Christ is going to
count.
Beloved, what are you going to do if you get up into heaven, and all these Catholic
people will look at you on the Day of Judgment, and says, they knew,
they knew, and they never told me.
They never handed me a copy of Alberta or Double Cross.
No one ever witnessed to me, because you were afraid.
Don't you realize, beloved, their blood is on our hands.
God has given us a weapon to reach these precious Catholics.
We've got tremendous material.
We've got stuff people will rage Let the papers blast us.
Let the people be in fear.
But they don't know what's going on.
You've got to read these books, beloved.
Read them, and show me where you find hate.
If I really love the Catholics, I would do what I'm doing now.
If I hated the Roman Catholics, as I said before, there's no way I would
print anything to try to reach them for Christ.
I'd let them go under.
That's hate.
When these pastors won't even preach to the Roman Catholics, they hate them.
If they loved them, they'd be willing to stick their necks out and say,
hey, beloved, you've been tricked.
Those Catholics that got saved know they've been tricked.
They're boiling mad, and yet they're winning their families, their mothers,
and dads, and uncles, and sisters to Christ.
And I thank God for people with courage, beloved.
That's what we all need at a time like this, is courage.
And Christ will give you the courage.
It's not hard.
He'll do it for you.
Speaking of courage, I want to tell you one of the greatest stories I've heard.
A couple of weeks ago, a young fellow walked into Chick Publications,
sat down with me, and said, Mr. Chick, I was in Cuba, in a Cuban prison for a
while, and he shared with me one of the greatest stories I've ever heard.
I guess This Was Your Life had played a pretty important factor in his coming to
the Lord as a young man.
And he evidently had studied the tides moving into Cuba, and he was setting up
little packages of This Was Your Life and other gospel material, wrapping them in a
substance that would float.
It was in a plastic that would be protected.
And he sent out thousands of little copies of This Was Your Life and so on,
making sure that it would float towards Cuba.
Well, he had no idea if these things were really paying off or not.
Time went on, he kept working and putting these things in the ocean and hoping his
projections were correct.
Well, bless his heart, he learned to fly a plane.
And so he thought he would fly over Cuba and he would drop This Was Your Life over
these cities.
He flew over and he dropped This Was Your Life over eight cities in Cuba.
Then he came back and he said on his second pass over the city, I hope I'm
remembering this right, but the second time he went over, he dropped This Was
Your Life over these eight cities, and then his plane malfunctioned and went
down.
He had to land into Cuba.
Immediately he was arrested.
He was given 12 years and then the good bishop or Catholic cardinal, whoever it
was, got in on the act.
They added another 12 years for this insulting thing that this man had done,
dropping this anti-revolutionary literature.
So they put this kid in prison.
They took him 200 miles from one of the cities that he had dropped the tracks at,
and they put him in this prison, and he had to go through eight electronic
gates to get to the cell that they had put him in.
He got up there, and lo and behold, a guy next to him says, hey, I got a book
you got to read.
It was a copy of This Was Your Life.
One of the copies that this brother had dropped over the city, 200 miles away.
That thing got inside that prison and was passed from every inmate, read a copy of
This Was Your Life in Spanish, and was finally handed to him in his own
cell.
I praise God that Chick tracks get read.
You know, we say that on our advertising, and beloved, it is for real.
They do get read.
He cracked up when he saw that book come in.
He praised God.
In the meantime, Fidel Castro blew his cork.
He went out.
He hit every one of those cities, screaming and telling the people,
don't read this material.
You know, Alberto told me an interesting thing about Fidel Castro.
He's a good Jesuit.
Interesting.
You're getting to see sides of Rome you never knew existed.
Nazis and Communists are Jesuits?
Interesting, isn't it?
Daughters of the Whore.
Communist Party.
Look what happens down there in South America, these big wars going on.
No matter who wins, Rome wins.
Communist, Catholic, Rome still runs the show.
Either way, Fidel Castro, can you imagine that?
A good Jesuit.
What are the Catholics going to, not the Catholics, but what are the
Communists going to do when they see these new books coming out?
You know, it brings everything into focus when you know what's going on.
When you see who is the big head of this machine.
You know, people are saying, oh, brother, Council on Foreign Relations.
Oh, this is it, the Council on Foreign Relations.
Big deal.
That belongs to Rome.
Illuminati belongs to Rome.
Communist Party.
Nazi Party.
It all belongs to one head.
The thing is, that's where there's so many Czech publications, is we pull this thing
together.
And I praise God for people with courage like that brother who was, he told me an
interesting thing.
He said when the guards got him and they pulled him in, they says, have you ever
seen this material?
And he looked at it and it was one of these packages that was wrapped up in this
plastic.
And he says, praise God, that's the stuff I dropped in the ocean months and months
ago.
And he says, how many of these reached Cuba?
He says, thousands upon thousands of these things reached Cuba.
They were so mad at this kid, they couldn't see straight.
And then God moved.
He intervened there.
And then when Carter was leaving the administration and President Reagan was
moving in, a negotiation was made in Cuba.
And a lot of people came out and the Lord opened the door for this brother and he
released him.
He's going to write a book on this stuff.
And it's exciting how God moves and miracles that are going on today.
But beloved, we're so grateful to the Lord for allowing us to be in this kind of
work.
It is fun.
It is exciting, dangerous.
God's calling the shots.
Years ago, somebody gave me a 45 and says, Jack, you're going to have this to protect
yourself.
I says, no way.
I will not accept it.
I gave it back to him.
And I says, look, if God can't protect me, nobody's going to protect me.
I've seen all these things come against Dr. Rivera.
When we worked on Alberto, we came out of the office one night.
I was in the car ahead of Dr. Rivera and I just pulled out of the driveway.
He was pulling right behind me and a car comes by about 70 miles an hour.
I hear pow, pow, two shots.
I saw Rivera coming off the road.
I backed up and I smelled a gunpowder.
They've hit his home.
They firebombed it.
They shot into his house, tried to kidnap his wife.
All kinds of heat came on him.
Still coming on this, dear brother.
But beloved, this is the powers of darkness.
It's the force of darkness that's moving the principalities and powers.
And we have authority over them.
We can bind them and hold them.
Beloved, we've got more power than you ever dreamed.
The powers of darkness come against us and we say, in Jesus' name, we bind you.
And they're bound.
Our mail gets held up and say, in Jesus' name, Satan, loosen the mail.
And here it comes pouring into Chick Publications.
It's the spiritual warfare, beloved.
And we praise God we're a part of it.
I'd like to read you some letters that came through from Roman Catholics who were
saved reading Alberto.
It's going to bless your heart.
And I hope it's going to turn you on and get you so excited that you're going to
call Chick Publications or write us.
I have just finished reading Alberto.
I am so thrilled to have it, I can hardly express my words.
Thank you for your boldness and for the truth behind Rome.
I felt so alone in my stand for the Lord Jesus and his word.
I was a Roman Catholic for 31 years.
I am now a Christian for about three years now.
I came to know the Lord through the word.
Someone gave me a Bible and told me that it was God's word.
I read it for two years daily and could not understand many things but continued
to read and weep.
I was saved in 1977 in my home.
The word of God has truly set me free.
This is from a person in Kentucky.
Another one from California.
I read your testimony in the Crusaders book.
I think it's fabulous.
Why?
Because I was a Catholic for 23 years and now I'm a believer of Jesus Christ.
Here's another one from Wisconsin.
I just read the Crusaders Alberto.
I am an ex-Catholic and know that it is all true.
I just want you to know that I will be praying for you always and praying that
all Catholics will see the true light and come out from among them.
I pray God's richest blessings and his mighty power of protection to rest upon
you.
Here's one from Texas.
Two weeks ago I gave a copy of Alberto to one of my Christian friends.
She came from a Catholic background and was saved less than a year ago.
She was planning to visit relatives that week and I told her about Alberto and she
wanted to give it to her relatives.
As a result of reading Alberto, two of her cousins were saved.
Praise the Lord.
That's from Texas.
Here's a letter that came through from Mexico.
Dear brother in Christ, greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus our blessed Lord
and Savior.
Just had a letter from a dear elderly sister over in Japan.
She just read Alberto and was much impressed.
She knows my background being a slave of Rome for 22 years.
Her letter was to ask my opinion of the booklet.
I recommended it to her 100% and urged her to help spread it as far and as fast as
that can be spread.
Beloved, with a reaction like this, do you see why Rome is upset and is trying
every dirty trick in the book?
Here's another letter from Tennessee.
I was upset and ashamed of our Baptist bookstore in Nashville, Tennessee for
removing Alberto from their store.
I heard it on the news and it made me sick that Catholics are bossing Baptists
around.
I'm sure nothing would be removed from a Catholic store if Baptists complained.
May God bless you and protect you.
We're praying for you.
That's from Tennessee.
Here's an interesting letter from Aurora, Illinois.
I want you to notice something very interesting.
Almost all these letters I have read come from Roman Catholics and all of them are
saying what we're saying is right on.
The opposition is coming from Christians who don't know beans about Catholicism.
Our supporters are Roman Catholics who have come to Christ and they're behind us
100%.
They know what we're doing is right.
Listen to this letter that came from Texas.
We are a family of 10 children from a strict Catholic background.
As of a month ago, 7 of the 10 of us were born again and had a burden for our
parents' souls.
My brother boldly took my mother a copy of Alberta, for which I got after him.
I felt that it would anger and alienate her.
It led her to Calvary.
She now is in his service, has read her Bible from cover to cover in less than
four weeks, and is witnessing to all of her friends and apologizing to us.
51 years old, please stay in the Word.
God is using you.
And this is from Laredo, Texas.
Thank God for people like this.
Beloved, now you see how Rome has encircled the Gospel bookstores to cut us
off.
They send their forces in periodically to check and see if Alberta or Double Cross
are on the shelves.
And if they are, then through the newspapers of the town, they open up and
make a real serious charges against the bookstore owners.
So it's a reign of terror.
Some have had their windows broken out.
And there's a kingdom of fear and worry there.
And these people should be prayed for.
We pray for the bookstores daily at Chick Publications.
And we thank God, especially for those who have the courage to sell Alberta and
Double Cross.
And those stores that do carry Alberta and Double Cross, you should support them
100%.
Beloved, help them, support them, lift them up, pray for them.
Because they're the ones that are standing in the front lines.
And you too are standing in the front lines with us, beloved.
If you're a real Christian, concerned about Rome, concerned about the future of
your children, and you want to know what's going on, and you want books that are
going to bring this whole picture into focus, then you write Chick Publications,
beloved.
We've got the material.
Read 50 Years in the Church of Rome by Chineke.
Listen to the heartbreaking tape of Sister Charlotte.
Read Alberta and Double Cross.
Read the other book by Chineke.
It's called The Priest, the Woman, and the Confessional.
How they've taken over the nations through the confessionals.
I feel so sorry for the bookstores that are copping out.
They're telling the people, you know, well, Alberto has been discredited.
He hasn't.
Even his dear sister, who suffered so horribly, and the true story we printed on
Double Cross, they're saying she was a prostitute.
She was a nun.
She suffered horribly.
She married a fellow who turned out to be a knight of Columbus, and she disappeared
off the face of the earth, beloved.
And now they're saying she was a prostitute.
How horrible.
I saw letters that Dr. Rivera received from her telling of the horrible
experiences she went through as a nun.
Beloved, the Christians are the only one that shoot their wounded, but these aren't
the real Christians.
These aren't the broken ones.
Beloved, those that have their eyes on Christ are the real Christians that are
sold out, that have come out of darkness, and they want to shine that light into the
darkness to win those Catholics to Christ.
If we don't win them, beloved, no one's going to win them.
There are 60 million Roman Catholics out there in the United States and Canada that
have to be reached.
Beloved, pray that God gives you a burden.
Not only the Roman Catholics, other people have to know what's going on.
People in your churches have to know what's going on.
Your pastor has to know what's going on.
We have been faithful to the Lord Jesus Christ for 20 years as a Christian
publisher, and many men right now preaching behind the pulpits have been
saved as a result of reading This Was Your Life.
Our books are going forth, they're winning souls, but we have to have your backup and
your support.
Beloved, please join this army.
Please take this tape and pass it on to your friends and let them hear what's
going on.
They've got to know.
All of us have got to know.
And by God's grace, with the documentation and the material coming in for our next
book called The Godfathers, which we hope to have out by Christmas, you're going to
be so awake and so alert, and you're going to know so much more than the average
person on the street.
Beloved, you're going to be prepared, and you're going to be awake.
And I believe the Protestants are going to come awake again.
And when we see this army start to build, Rome is going to back off.
When she's in control, she's like a tiger.
When she's not, she's like a fox, and she's moving and maneuvering and
getting ready for the kill, Beloved.
Let me give you our address one more time.
Chick Publications Post Office Box 662 Chino, California, 91710.
Telephone, area code 714-9870771.
God bless you, Beloved.
Thank you for taking the time to listen to this tape.
We love you.
Remember, we are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus.
God bless you.
Bye-bye.
