Calvinism

Calvinism has been a controversial issue for years, especially among Bible
Believing Christians. Many Calvinists influenced the development of the
Constitution and the Bill of Rights. We respect their contributions to those vital
documents. The Protestant Reformation inspired the Receptus Textus (which is a
line of biblical manuscripts that are found in the the Geneva Bible, the Tyndale
Bible, and of course the King James Version of the Bible) and many Bibles, which
was a good thing. The Roman Catholic Church lied and called William Tyndale a
heretic when he wasn’t. Tyndale was a strong Christian who desired to translate
the Bible into the hands of the common people. He died so people like us would
read the Bible in our own tongue and express full religious liberty in the world.
The Jesuits used the Counter-Reformation in order to crush the Reformation and
the influence Baptists in Europe. The Jesuits are a slick, spying order that was
banned in numerous countries of Europe. This doesn't mean we agree with them
on every doctrinal point. I've studied Calvinism for years and it was created by
the reformer John Calvin. Right now, some people will be angry at this work on
the accurate history of John Calvin. Well, that’s fine with him since Calvin isn’t
God nor infallible. God is God. Calvin was a intelligent pro-Reformation scholar.
Calvinists abhor the teachings of Jacobus Arminius. Calvin wasn't perfect as we
know. He established a church-state theocracy in Geneva, Switzerland.
Theocracies that's man-made infringe on religious liberty. In the city of Geneva at
that time, three men who had laughed during a sermon were imprisoned for three
days, a person was imprisoned for four days because he wanted to call his child Claude (the
name of a Catholic saint) instead of Abraham, and girl who struck her parents was beheaded.
In Geneva, a secret police was forged under the name of The Consistory. Every
home was compulsorily examined and searched. The City was divided into districts
and committees of the Consistory were empowered to search and interrogate all
residents without previous notice. Attendance at public worship was commanded
and watchmen were directed to see that people went to church. The theocracy
that John Calvin formed in Geneva, Switzerland was a blueprint that
Reconstruction and Dominion heretical theology exist now. These theology
believes that America must be forced to embrace Old Testament rules. Calvin was
from France. John Calvin was a Frenchman, but he escaped into Geneva for fear of
the Inquisition. Even in the 1500's, the Inquisition would kill innocent people for
just disagreeing with the Papacy on religious or political matters. Since the
Papacy and the Jesuits wanted to kill him (because of his religious beliefs), he
escaped into Geneva to set up his religious center of influence. He written a book
entitled, "Institutes." He was young when he finished the work. Calvinism is
simply put into the theology or exegesis of T.U.L.I.P. TULIP stands for Total
depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and the
perseverance of the saints. These dogmas make up the core of Calvinism. I don't
agree with everything with Calvinism and many Independent Baptists don't. The
early Baptists in England were divided into the General Baptists and the
Particular Baptists, referring to how they viewed Christ’s atonement, as to
whether it was for all men (general) or only for the elect (particular). Adam
Taylor’s History of the General Baptists of England (1818) deals with the history of
the non-Calvinist Baptists in Great Britain, and there were a large number of
them. The ironic thing is that some in Calvinism are divided over their views.

Admittedly, John Calvin loved the philosophies of Augustine in his own words:
“If I were inclined to compile a whole volume from Augustine, I could easily
show my readers, that I need no words but his” (Institutes, Book III, chap. 22).
Augustine was a 5th century church scholar who some accuse of embracing Papal
doctrines. Calvin's major false doctrine was his embrace of Limited Atonement or
the belief that God only saves (or can save) the elect. The truth is that the Bible is
clear that Jesus Christ died for the sins of the whole entire world (not just for the
elect). Also, God is clear from the Bible that he doesn't want anyone to go into
Hell, but some will: “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men
count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should
perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Pet. 3:9). Man by himself is
depraved of getting salvation by himself, but that doesn't mean that man is
unable to help the world after salvation. Man can even accept God's offer of
salvation even though he or she is unable to contribute to his or her salvation.
God offers human beings to accept or reject God's gift of salvation freely. The
Bible is clear that: "...For God so loved the WORLD, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life..." (John 3:16). God is Sovereign and has predestination, yet God is
also merciful and kind. God never hates people because of their essence of their
being. God does hate sin and evil. We should too, but not people because of their
differences or inborn characteristics (like sex, race, etc.). Too many Calvinists
embrace pessimism about human beings as well. All Calvinists aren't monolithic.
Some of them refuse to submit to God's commandment of preaching the Gospel to
all Creation. Some try to preach the Gospel to people. Like Luther, Calvin falsely
tried to merged the sacraments into the Word of God. There is the Michael Servetus
controversy in dealing with Calvinism. You can't escape it when you investigate
John Calvin. John Calvin shouldn't be blamed for his death since Calvin didn't
authorize or kill Servetus. His allies did. Even Michael Servetus' execution was
wrong for many reasons. The only biblical NT requirement for the death penalty for
people is murder or extremely high crimes not religious dissent. You can't find one
single verse to validate the myth that you murder human beings for religious
dissent. The Bible says to respond to heretics is "scriptural reproof", silence, and
rejecting them after the first and second admonition. (Titus 1:9-11, 2 Tim. 4:2, Titus
3:10,etc.). The deal is that Michael Servetus have shown real heresies in Geneva.
Although, he wasn't violent neither advocate a violent overthrow of the
government. Yet, Geneva's authorities captured him and murdered him, because he
had differing religious views from Calvinism. The Lutheran historian Mosheim
(1694-1755), Sebastian Castellio, historian Gibbon and others express remorse over
Servetus' death and dissent towards Calvin's action. Servetus was an excellent
physician and called infant baptism "a doctrine of the Devil, an invention of popery,
and a total subversion of Christianity." He also called the Mass "a Satanic
monstrosity and an invention of demons." He's 100 % correct on those 2 issues, but
he had false ,odd views of the Trinity, odd views on the end times, and sometimes
was absentminded or made false remarks about people. Those other views that
Servetus had are of course false. His works of De trinitas erroribus (1531) and DE
trinitae (1532) outline his opinions.

Before Severtus died while he was burning into ashes at October 27, 1553 he
screamed in a loud voice saying "Jesus Christ ,thou Son of the eternal God, have
mercy upon me!" The source where this quote is found in Schaff's History of the
Christian Church at Chapter 16 and tons of other sources. Farel and Calvin
afterwards still conceded to Servetus' burning even though he at least back tracked
on some issues and realize Christ is the Son of God. Michael Servetus was no doubt
a heretic, but you don't murder heretics (who aren’t criminals) just because you
disagree with them. That's murder and a sin. Papal Rome did that for centuries that
and we shouldn’t do that.

Calvin also followed the Papal, unscriptural concept of infant baptism. John Calvin
wrote that infants being baptized are immediately apart of the body of Christ:
“At whatever time we are baptized, we are washed and purified once for the whole
of life” (Institutes, IV).

“By baptism we are ingrafted into the body of Christ ... infants are to be baptized ...
children of Christians, as they are immediately on their birth received by God as
heirs of the covenant, are also to be admitted to baptism” (Institutes, IV).
The Holy Scriptures are totally clear the blood of Jesus Christ saves us and grafts us
into the body of Jesus Christ. There is no biblical evidence that infants were baptized
for salvation at all. John Calvin was notorious in his hatred of Anabaptists when in
many cases they were more in line with Biblical Christianity than he was. Some
Calvinism don't take theological disagreements very well. If you disagree with
Calvin's views, some Calvinists might think that you're an Arminian. When the
reality, you don't have to be a Calvinist or an Arminian to be saved.

There is a connection between Roman Catholicism and Calvinism that many people
ignore. Dave Hunt proved this truth that John Calvin would take ideas from the
Papacy (because of his Roman Catholic background) in his own theology. Again,
John Calvin accepted Augustine's views. Furthermore, Augustine believed in using
the power of state to compel church attendance. This Papal doctrine is what John
Calvin would advocate about 1,200 years later. Calvin believed in the "perpetual
virginity" of Mary: "Because she is the ever-virgin, Calvin usually refers to the Virgin
Mary and not just Mary in his writings The mother of God was Virgin, before, during and
after birth. Joseph had no sexual contacts with his wife Mary." John Calvin, Calvini Opera
Harm Ev ad Luc I, 34, op 45, 30

"To this day we cannot enjoy the blessing brought to us in Christ without thinking at the
same time of that which God gave as adornment and honour to Mary, in willing her to be the
mother of his only-begotten Son". John Calvin, Calvini Opera Harmonie Evangelique,
Ser IX, op 46 309

The Roman Catholic Church accepts perpetual virginity or that Mary remained a
virgin for the rest of her life. The Bible is clear that Mary had other children and
these were Jesus Christ's half-relatives. Matthew 13:55 says that: "Is not this the
carpenters son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and
Simon and Judas?" John Calvin seems to reject the Biblical concept of
PREMILLENNIALISM or that Jesus Christ will reign for 1,000 years on Earth before his
Eternal Kingdom comes around. This is found in the book of Revelation. Calvin wrote that:
“…But a little later there followed the chiliasts, who limited the reign of Christ to a thousand
years. Now their fiction is too childish either to need or to be worth a refutation. And the
Apocalypse, from which they undoubtedly drew a pretext for their error, does not support
them. For the number “one thousand” ( Revelation 20:4) does not apply to the eternal
blessedness of the but only to the various disturbances that awaited the church, while still
toiling on earth…” (Institutes, 3. 25. 5, emphasis added)

Dave Hunt’s book "WHAT LOVE IS THIS?" exposes Calvinism in a peaceful and
logical way. Dave Hunt is correct to expose the heresies among the Roman Catholic
Church. That book is called “A Woman Who Rides the Beast.“ That book is excellent
to read obviously. This book not only exposes the heresies of Romanism, but the
destructive history found in the agents of the Roman Catholic Church. Hunt believes
that the Vatican is Mystery Babylon. Romanism is known for its persecutions of
Jewish people, Christians, dissidents, and others. Popes like Paul IV (1555-59) were
known for their anti-Jewish bigotry. The Council of Zamora (1313) of Romanism
ruled that they must be kept in strict subjection and servitude. The Papal Council of
Basel (1431-33) renewed canonical decrees forbidding Christians to associate with
Jews. Roman Catholicism is known historically to support regimes that violate
human rights (deal with religious liberty, civil liberty, the freedom of conscience,
etc.). One example is how the Romanists supported the dictators of Mexico until
Benito Juarez in 1861 had a revolution there to promote some freedom in the nation
of Mexico. I have some disagreements with Dave Hunt. Hunt refuses to expose 9/11
and new world order agenda. It is Hunt’s attempt to discredit the King James Bible’s
translation of Acts 13:48. In his attempt to refute Calvinism, Brother Hunt finds it
necessary (on page 218) to claim that the King James Bible leaned on the Roman
Catholic Latin Vulgate in Acts 13:48. This is false since this verse is accepted by most
major translations like Geneva, Carnmer, Bishops Bible, and the King James Bible.
Dave Hunt is on the Board of ExCatholics for Christ (ECFC). The ECFC has allowed
Pentecostals and Charismatics the freedom to participate on their platform. One speaker
stated in a letter in 1989, "I had what I considered to be a genuine experience of being
baptized in the Spirit and later had the experience of speaking in tongues." Both Pentecostals
and Charismatics have members falsely believing that we must speak in tongues to be saved
or it’s a sign of our salvation. John Calvin founded the University of Geneva. Its coat of
arms has the "IHS" symbol, which is tied to the Jesuits and Freemasonry. There is a
key and half of a double headed eagle as well. One of the biggest supporters of
Calvinism is James White, who agrees with supporting the apostate modern Bible
versions. Many radicals that are Reformed hate Premillenialism or the view that
Jesus Christ will return before the arrival of the Millennium. Today, Calvinism is
trying to infiltrate Baptist churches, which is a shame. The good news is that folks
are waking up about what Calvinism truly stands for. I believe in the Gospel of the
Lord Jesus Christ, not the Five Points of Calvin or the T.U.L.I.P.
Ellen White

To this day, some claim that the 7th Adventists claim they are apart of mainstream
Christianity. My answer to this is "Let the truth be told though the heavens fall." The reality is
that Ellen White invented Seventh Day Adventism not Jesus Christ at all. Ellen White
notoriously used false predictions and other unscriptural teachings in her own writings. Later,
I will quote her words later on. That's why I don't follow a man or a woman 100%, but God
alone 100%. More facts are coming out about Ellen White. As many realize, Ellen G. White was
a false prophetess and the religion of Seventh Day Adventism is her fruit. The following is
Mrs. Burdick's eyewitness testimony of a prophecy Mrs. White made:

"During the year 1845 I met Miss Ellen G. Harmon several times at my uncle's house
in South Windham, Me. The first of these meetings was in the month of May, when I
heard her declare that God had revealed to her that Jesus Christ would return
to this earth in June, the next month." (Lucinda Burdick, notarized letter, published
in Limboline).

This is a failed prophecy of course. In 1864, Ellen White predicted that the world would soon
be depopulated, but it failed. Adventism was an offshoot of the movement of William Miller (a
false prophet who predicted that the end of the world would occur in 1844. That was false). By
1860, White and her followers called themselves the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Dr. John
Whitcomb Jr. disagreed with calling the Adventists Christianity. 7th Day Adventists are an
interesting bunch of people. A lot of them typically have a hatred of the Roman Catholic
Church. I have no problem with disagreeing with Roman Catholic doctrine myself, but the
Adventists even have errors. Some of the famous Seventh Day Adventist authors include
Steve Wohlberg, Bill Hughes, Walter J. Veith, Vance Ferrell, and others. Some of them like
Walter are right to expose the Jesuits and their wicked history. The Jesuit's wicked history
include banning Jewish people from overtly joining the group until 1946, being involved in the
Counter Reformation, involved in evils like promoting gun grabbing plus the Ecumenical
Movement promotion, and being banned by many European nations for their espionage plus
infiltration of various countries. Ellen White didn't even believe in drinking tea. Her own words
on the issue are the following:

"... People may be taught... and be educated to refuse all narcotics, - tea, coffee, fermented wines,
and stimulants of all kinds, - and to discard the flesh of dead animals." (Counsels on Diet and Foods,
p. 281, written in 1896).

On the other hand, black or green tea are proven to reduce the risk of a stroke or heart attack,
protects against several types of cancer, and have equal or greater antioxidant power than
many fruits plus vegetables. Now, 7th Adventists wasn't created by Jesus Christ. It was
created in the modern sense by the false prophetess Ellen White. They believe in soul sleep or
that the saved people don't experience a conscious existence from the time of death until the
resurrection. That's wrong since the Bible says after death, we immediately face the Judgment
of God himself. The NT has Abraham communicating to a person in Hell thereby making
Abraham conscious of his surrounding after his death. The Adventists follow a works-based
salvation, they believe that Christ acquired a sinful nature, and they accept baptismal
regeneration. They believe in the false teaching that refusing to follow the Sabbath is equated
with taking the Mark of the Beast (when the Mark of the Beast is about placing an object inside
your arm or forehead. It has nothing to do with when a person worships God at all). Now, the
Sabbath is a day of rest. It was apart of the OT. In the New Testament, the Sabbath should be
given respect. Yet, mandatory Sabbath keeping is not mandatory for salvation at all. They also
view the Sabbath as a prerequisite for salvation when it isn't. The Sabbath is a remembrance
of the suffering of the Israelites and a time of rest. It isn't a means to get salvation at all. The
Sabbath wasn't even mentioned in the Bible until the book of Exodus. Jesus Christ is a
representation of the fulfillment of the Sabbath. The early church habitually met on the first
day of the week (John 20:19; Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:2). In fact, the Bible says that we
shouldn't judge on which day we worship. Colossians 2:16-17 says that: "...Let no man
therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the
sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ..." Romans 14: 2-6 is
clear that:

"...For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. Let not him that
eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for
God hath received him. Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master
he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. One man
esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully
persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that
regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for
he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God
thanks..." Ellen White refused to eat certain meats when the Bible doesn’t mandate us to force
people to refuse to eat meats:

“…Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith,
giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having
their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain
from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe
and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be
received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. - Timothy
4:1-5

The Sabbath again is a day of rest and the first day was readily a time where Christians
celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In other words, we have the right to worship God
on any day. White is known for making even more false prophecies. One example is how she
said that no sins were blotted until 1844 (as found in the Great Controversy Book on pg.
552). That's a lie, because Jesus Christ saved all of the sins of the world. Ellen White falsely
predicted that in the year of 1844, Jesus Christ came into the Holy of Holies in the Heavenly
Sanctuary. William Miller even admitted that he was wrong that Jesus Christ came into the
Earth in 1843. Ephesians 2:8-10 is clear that:

[8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
[9] Not of works, lest any man should boast.
[10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath
before ordained that we should walk in them.

Ellen White falsely taught that some people should never feel that they are saved in the
following words: “…Those who accept the Saviour, however sincere their conversion,
should never be taught to say or feel that they are saved…” (Christ's Object Lessons, p.
155). Yet, the Bible says something different than what White says: “…These things have I
written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God: that ye may know that ye
have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13). Ellen White is a proven plagiarist. 7th Adventists teaches
a works-based Gospel for salvation that can never save anyone. Works-based salvation is a
key Romanist doctrine. They mix truth with error in order to control a segment of the
population that legitimately abhors the false doctrines of the Papacy. Ellen White made even
more false prophecies of Old Jerusalem never being built up or that that Adventists living in
1856 would be alive at the Rapture. In recent years, these Adventists desperately are trying to
unite with conservative Christians for the sake of opposing Rome, etc. I don't care if you
oppose Rome or not, I'm not theologically uniting with Seventh Day Adventists at all. Ellen
places her "visions" as equal to the word of God, which is false. She wrote that:

"...the Holy Spirit opened to her mind important events and called her to give certain instructions for
these last days, and inasmuch as these instructions, in our understanding, are in harmony with the
Word of God, which Word alone is able to make us wise unto salvation, we as a denomination accept
them as inspired counsels from the Lord.." (Q. D., pg. 93).

The Bible is clear that his word is sufficient and superior to White's writings. It's been found by Lisa
Ruby from Liberty to the Captives Ministries that the Seventh day Adventists' leadership (not
all Adventists) have been yolked up with the United Nations (a group dedicated with the one
world concept and a new world order). The Liaison Office to the United Nations is based at the
Adventists Church's world headquarters in Silver Spring, Maryland, USA. That's admitted on
the Adventist's own website. Of course, all members of the 7th Day Adventists don't align with
the U.N., but much of their leadership does. It's doesn't take a genius at all to witness that the
United Nations is pro-New Age. U Thant, who was a former UN Secretary General, said that the
world won't change and find peace without a new education. UN adherent Robert Muller is one
of the famous advocates of the occult and a world core curriculum (to brainwash our children
into accepting New Age philosophy, anti-individualism, etc.) in the world. Now, the Robert
Muller School promotes the writings of Alice A. Bailey (whose husband was 32nd degree
Freemason Foster Bailey). The UN certified this school under the guises of "international
cooperation and peace." Alice Bailey funded Lucis Trust (a magazine that was once called
Lucifer Trust. The name was changed for obvious reasons). Bailey received her teachings
from Satanist Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (She is the co-founder of the Theosophical Society.
She popularized occult thought in the Western world including America). Alice Bailey
promotes the Mysteries in the world as a plan to seek the new world order. Helena called
Lucifer the Serpent, Savior, civilization, Liberty, etc. from her book of "The Secret Doctrine" on
pages 171, 225, and 255 (from Volume 11). Blavatsky even called Satan God, which is false.
Lucis Trust was created in 1922. Lucis Trust peddles hardcore New Age literature in various
New Age bookstores. At one time, the Lucis Trust office in New York was located at 666 United
Nations Plaza and is a member of the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations under a
slick program called "World Goodwill" (which is a NGO whose aim to make the reappearance of the
Christ possible. Occultists write about the coming New Age Christ of the Aquarian Age). Robert
McNamara, Thomas Watson, and other elitists have sponsored Lucis Trust. The Aquarian Age
Community is another UN site that promotes the New Age Movement. Lucis Trust believes that a
world spiritual leaders will help mankind to achieve peace. This could be the Antichrist since Bible
prophecies outline the Antichrist as first coming as a man of peace (then he unleashes war). Now, his
nickname is Maitreya (who is promoted by Benjamin Creme of the Share International organization).
So, life is bigger than what's shown in the mainstream media.

7Th Day Adventism is one of the slickest man-made religion in attempting to deceive
sincere believers in God. The good news is that false prophets and false doctrines of
Ellen White have been exposed since Day One. Some Seventh Day Adventist
accept the baptismal regeneration heresy. On, a SDA website, at
http://www.adventist.org, it teaches that: “…Through baptism we are truly born again
in Jesus…”

Ellen White has been found using Masonic and occult terminology throughout her literature.
Ellen White praised Mother Earth and the vital force, which are New Age words. White's grave
stone is an Egyptian obelisk (which is a Masonic symbol). The obelisk represents the sun god
Ra, and the phallic icon. The obelisk is a phallic symbol that goes back into Osiris, Baal, and
the false gods of the Mystery Religions. This phallic image is connected to the Masonic
concept of regeneration. Regeneration is about the merging of the masculine and feminine
(usually in pagan thought) to make conception in Nature. It's definitely a pagan icon of the
ancient world. So, I wouldn't advise anyone to be a member of the 7th Adventists because of
their false doctrines and sick influence in the world. To recap: The 7th Day crowd believe in
works-based salvation, the Sabbath is connected to the Mark of the Beast, and the view that
the soul dies (even of the saved) until Judgment Day. All of these things are unscriptural.
Liberty to the Captives Ministries (as headed by Lisa Ruby) found out that Ellen White's
writings have an All Seeing Eye. White in her “Special Testimonies on Education” praise the
All Seeing Eye. White in his Counsels for the Church on page 177 on paragraph 2 falsely view
God as having an all seeing eye as well. Historically, the All Seeing Eye was the Eye of Horus.
It's a pagan emblem and the Bible never even referred to God as the Eye of Horus or the All
Seeing Eye at all. Ellen White called God the Great Architect, which is false. God isn’t an
architect. God is the Creator of the Universe. An architect builds nothing, but makes plans for
the construction of a building or object. Ironically, the Grand Architect is a Masonic term for
their god. The All Seeing Eye is of course a known logo of Freemasonry. White writes about
the Coming One. The Coming One is a New Age term signifying the New Age world teacher.
Bible Believers believe that this person is actually the Antichrist as predicted in the book of
Revelations (and other books of the Bible). Lucis Trust (one of the most powerful New Age
groups in the world with ties to the U.N. Some of their leaders are worshippers of Lucifer.
Lucifer relates to Venus and Satan), promote the concept of a Coming One. Ellen White (like
occultists) believed in a life force, but God Almighty isn't a life force. God is the Creator and
isn't merged with his creation. The Bible and the early church for thousands of years before
Jesuit futurism came out believed in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ after the Tribulation
plus after the arrival of the Antichrist. It’s a tactic that by those who hate Biblical prophecy to
slander anyone believing in Biblical futurism as being Jesuitical when while every Pope is an
antichrist, the ultimate Antichrist is yet to come since he doesn’t rule the Earth yet.

Appendix A: Preterism Exposed

Preterism is a strong heresy embraced by many Dominionists, Papists, and other skeptics of
the Christian faith. Preterism is the prophetic view that every prophecy of the Book (including
in the Book of the Revelation) was fulfilled by 70 A.D. absent the Second coming of the Lord
Jesus Christ. Some of their proponents believe Nero was the Antichrist. That's false since
Nero never set himself in the Temple of God as found in 2 Thes. 2;4. Nero never had a global
economy that was dependant on a mark from him and he was destroyed by the coming of
Jesus Christ (as found in Rev. 13:17 and 2 Thes. 2:8). Nero wasn't even the Empire of Rome
during ca. 100 A.D. when the Book of Revelation was completely. The Ecumenical Hank
Hanegraff (who calls himself the "Bible Answer Man") believes that most of the prophecies
from Revelation are fulfilled except the coming of Jesus Christ. Full Preterists believes that
Jesus Christ returned invisibly in 70 A.D., which is a lie. The Antichrist haven't arrived since
the Gospel isn't preached among all creation yet, global government isn't here yet, and this
false theology gives people a false since of confidence. It gives people to ignore God's
warnings people of the signs of the end times. New Agers like Benjamin Creme support
Preterism as an excuse to say that the Antichrist is pass and his false Messiah is a true world
leader, which isn't true. Crème said that if we don't follow his false Christ of Maitreya, we will
be buried by him. This false Maitreya will never buried the truth at all. The Bible says that the
future Antichrist will be given full “power … over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations” (Rev.
13:7). The Jesuit Order via the Jesuit Alcasar created the Preterist doctrine as a means to
deceive Protestants in not condemning Romanism as an Antichrist system. Many Reformers
and other Christian leaders like Wycliffe, Tyndale, Luther, Calvin, etc. have called the Pope the
Antichrist. The Reformation broke down much of the power of Rome, so the Vatican used the
Counter Reformation to stop the spread of the Protestant gospel in Europe (Jesuits were apart
of this agenda as well). The Jesuits then and now want the Protestant Reformation to end.
They have infiltrated government, involved in war, support the Ecumenical Movement, and
done other nefarious actions for centuries since the early 1500's. So, Preterism is heresy that
should be exposed completely.
