THE RELIGIOUS DEVIL THAT HAS BEWITCHED SO MANY LUKEWARM CHRISTIAN LEADERS

Posted on September 26, 2020 by mariomurilloministries


How important is America’s destruction to Satan? So important that hell has dispatched a most powerful deceiver—a lying spirit, like that one mentioned in 1 Kings 22, in the mouths of those who should be preaching truth. This spirit deceives and takes the best intentions of preachers and twists them until they wake up supporting the very opposite of their first love. But first, here’s more of that fateful interview with Jim Caviezel on Fox: “We have this thing called ‘cancel-culture,’ and if Christians don’t watch it, it will be cancelling Christianity, as well. Because a lot of pastors, our bishops, our priests, they are laying right over. They are letting their churches be burned. How do we know that? Well, it’s right there on the news. Statues are being ripped down. They don’t say anything. And I watched a movie that Mel Gibson did – Braveheart – when you have the English who are the bad guys, against the Scots, but the real bad guys were the guys that were collaborating. That’s why we’re in this situation right now. We can’t go to churches, we can’t go into our church. Why? Because they could get contaminated, right? So, why are we on airplanes? I have friends who have committed suicide. I have SEAL buddies who have lost seven of their friends by suicide. And would it have helped to have been able to get into a church, especially during this time? Absolutely! And is it good for mental illness? Yes, it is. And, so, the collaborators in our faith, this is where the persecution starts. You’ve got guys inside your faith that won’t stand up to the governors, they will not stand up to the mayors. And that’s why the Gospel is very much alive right now, okay? I got to play Jesus. Some of us love Peter, or Paul. But there are many of us now that are flat-out Judases. Or they’re Pontius Pilates. Or they’re the Pharisees. And it’s a bloody shame if you can’t tell the difference between a priest, a bishop, or a politician. It’s really sad. But this is called ‘lukewarmness.’ And Christ has a very special place for them, and they know it.
Addiction, suicide, domestic violence and despair have all spiked because churches are closed. And yet, tens of thousands of Christian leaders not only keep their churches closed—many of them even attack their brethren who dare to open—and act like cheerleaders for the state. -Democrats and the Left openly talk about atheism, devil worship, pedophilia, and getting Christians fired, and yet a majority of leaders see no reason to resist the Democrat agenda. -One of the leading pastors in our nation tells us there’s little difference between voting Democrat or Republican, and God doesn’t really care. -A well-known worship leader sounding as foggy as a concert fog machine said, “Ruth Bader Ginsburg,” (the most radical abortionist ever to sit on the Supreme Court, was, according to this worship leader, and I quote), “probably pro-life in her own way.” –A bizarre silence on abortion. A massive number of Christian leaders staunchly refuse to talk about late term abortion—or about killing a baby that survives abortion. Their silence is sociopathic. They talk about how Republicans don’t care about the poor (a lie) or immigrants (another lie) but never answer the question about the most vile and unforgiveable butchery. -They throw their brothers and sisters under the bus. John MacArthur takes a stand for the religious freedom guaranteed in the Constitution, but only a handful out of the thousands of churches in Los Angeles stand with him. Jim was right when he said, “And it’s a bloody shame if you can’t tell the difference between a priest, a bishop, or a politician. It’s really sad. But this is called ‘lukewarmness.’ And Christ has a very special place for them, and they know it.”.
How can Christian leaders act this way when the evil of the Left is so clear, and our God mandated duty to stop it is commanded by scripture? The answer is demonic power. A smothering, dulling blanket of deception has settled on them. Their compromise is getting outside help from a religious spirit from the pit of hell. One of the first clear appearances of this religious devil was when the roaring challenge from Goliath froze the entire army of Israel. A mass paralysis of fear and confusion kept them from rising up. The demonic haze that settled on their minds made them put off doing their duty—it made them cowardly that Goliath was blaspheming God! Another example of this paralysis occurred during the American Revolutionary War. Despite the brutality and tyranny of the British, only 30% of the colonists supported the war for freedom. It was only after Thomas Paine wrote a series of pamphlets between 1775 and 1776 advocating that the Thirteen Colonies declare their independence from Great Britain, that support began to grow. Writing in clear and persuasive prose, Paine marshaled moral and political arguments to encourage common people in the Colonies to fight for their freedom. Common sense is what should be driving thousands of Christian leaders to fight the cancel-culture that is designed to shutdown freedom of worship, and will ultimately drive the American church underground.
Do you still doubt the demonic intentions of the Democrat Party? Listen to this Democrat attorney: “I am a 40-something attorney and mother who lives in a quiet neighborhood with a yard and a garage full of scooters and soccer balls. I am not the type of person who would normally consider becoming a Satanist, but these are not normal times. When Justice Ginsburg died, I knew immediately that action was needed on a scale we have not seen before. And, so, I have turned to Satanism.” Paul asked a question in Galatians 3:1 that needs to be levelled at lukewarm church leaders, “who has bewitched you?!” How can you not see the common sense of opening churches, standing with Donald Trump, and opposing the demonic intentions of the Democrat Party? Maybe the reason is to be found in the spell that the supernatural powers of hell have cast over this nation. That is why the solution must be supernatural as well—a massive repentance by church leaders, voter turnout, a powerful awakening, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit are the only hope for America! And the way to break this demon’s power.

The Next Step—Heritage Brief 46
Rick Joyner


If we look at the history of mankind from the Christian perspective it is more than just a journey; it is a magnificent adventure. Like most adventures, there have been setbacks, failures, and dangers everywhere, along with advances and victories. Because the end of the story has already been written, we know that an ultimate, glorious victory to our present struggle is both certain and near. Then there will be healing for every evil deed done and mankind’s future is even brighter than we can imagine.

Yet, in our time the darkness looms ever greater and our ultimate doom seems probable. Isn’t that just like almost every adventure story ever written? When doom seems inevitable, the ultimate victory is near. That this script is in virtually every adventure story ever written indicates that this has been written in our hearts—because it is the truth, a promise from our God who cannot lie.

The Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 1:6, God, who began a good work in us will complete it. What He created mankind and the earth for will be accomplished. The greatest promise of all is that God Himself is coming to dwell on the earth among men! (see Revelation 21:3). However, like in most adventure stories, the biggest battle of all comes at the end, just before this glorious conclusion.

The point is that we must never lose our faith in the ultimate victory of the truth over every lie, of light over darkness. Many have fought in this “good fight” from the beginning. They may have stumbled at times, failed and fallen, but they also kept getting back up and fighting on. It is for this reason as well that we seek to obey the commandment to “honor your fathers and mothers” (see Exodus 20:12) by defending and preserving the truth about them. We honor our heritage by fighting for the truth about it, and not letting those with evil intent distort or corrupt it.

Because we love the truth, we must also fight to preserve the truth about failures and mistakes by our predecessors. This is not in any way to dishonor them, or to think we are better than them, but with humility, considering our own weaknesses and failures, knowing that we will continue to make the same mistakes as those who went before us if we do not learn from theirs.

Since we began publishing these Heritage Briefs to remember and honor our fathers and mothers, as well as the great heritage we have, the “Cancel Culture” has risen to an unprecedented level of dishonoring them and disparaging our heritage. If we let this happen, then we have neglected and failed at one of our most basic callings as Christians to stand for the truth. We cannot stand on the sidelines while evil prevails. God promises His favor to those who stand for Him and His truth, and the favor of God is worth far more than the approval of men.

As it has been said, “All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.” As one of the greatest Christian lights to face the evils of the Nazis, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, said, “To not speak is to speak. To do nothing is to do something.” There will be no neutrality in the ultimate battle between good and evil, so we must resolve now that we will not be silent, and we will do something. So, what can we do?

First, we must resolve that we will live by faith in God and faith in His truth to prevail. For this reason, we will not be controlled by fear, but by faith in Him. We do this by standing for truth, and standing against lies and deception. Faith is the opposite of fear, and fear leads to cowardice. As we see in Revelation 21:8, the cowardly are the first to be thrown into the lake of fire, even before the murderers, sorcerers, idolaters, and the immoral. There is no place in Christianity for cowardice.

A concern of many who study the biblical prophecies of the end of this age is about “the mark of the beast.” This is a mark that the evil one wants everyone to take if they are going to be able to “buy, sell, or trade” in the short time when evil is prevailing before The Lord and His kingdom come. For centuries Christians have tried to perceive the form in which this mark would come so that they would know not to take it, but by this they miss the point. The sin is not taking the mark, but worshipping the beast. The mark is just evidence that this is what one has done.

How do we worship the beast? We obey it. As we are told in Romans 6:16, we are slaves of the one we obey. As is written, those who take this mark are thrown into the lake of fire with the beast when The Lord comes. What will keep us from taking this mark is more than just knowing what form it will come in, but rather living by the courage that true faith in God will always be demonstrated by—the faith that would rather die to this life than compromise our trust in God alone by bowing to any other.

Our American fathers and mothers, from the founders of our Republic to the present, may have made many mistakes and had plenty of flaws, but one thing as a nation we have not lacked is courage. It was courage to stand in the face of impossible odds that founded our country, and has since then stood up to every threat to our continued existence, and this will now be required of us. It is now our time. Courage is our American heritage. Will we preserve it?

However, it takes more than courage to stand for truth—it takes the discernment to know the truth. Charles Spurgeon once said that he could find ten men who would die for The Bible for every one that would read it! As we proceed into these times, we must keep in mind what both Jesus and the apostles said would be a hallmark of these times—deception. What good will it do us to courageously die for the lie, for the agenda of the evil one?

If we love the truth, we must cast off the frivolous pursuits and distractions that waste of our life and time to seek the truth so as to find it. The ability to recognize the truth is the result of loving the truth with an unrelenting devotion to seek it until we have found it. God promised that if we seek it we will find it. Therefore, if we are deceived it is evidence that we did not care enough to seek it.

So, the judgment of the cowards and the deceived is just. “The next step” for us is to resolve today that we will live with courage, we will love the truth so as to seek it, and that we will not quit until we have found it. Today, if you have heard His voice, resolve that you will respond because tomorrow is not promised to any of us.

Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God.

But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called "Today," so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end,

while it is said, ‘Today if you hear His voice do not harden your hearts…” (Hebrews 3:12-15).

Resistance to tyranny becomes the Christian and social duty of each individual…Continue steadfast and, with a proper sense of your dependence on God, nobly defend those rights which heaven gave, and no man ought to take from us. ~ John Hancock

Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. ~Thomas Jefferson

Battle of the Two Towers

A Prophetic Picture

By: Alan Smith

In the early morning, my spirit was unsettled as I listened to the news of the day. I could tell the spirit of the Lord was wanting to reveal something to me. It was then that I found myself caught up in the imagery that was forming in my spirit.
I saw a battle between two towers. There was a great storm with an earthquake that shook the two towers. They swayed back and forth as the storm was raging. There was intense lightning and thundering, so loud that it sent fear into all who heard the storm roar.
In my spirit I “heard” an understanding. One tower’s name was Globalism and the other was Nationalism (Patriotism). I knew there were many in the tower called Globalism, and only a few in the tower called Nationalism (Patriotism). I then knew the tower called Globalism was trying to tear down and destroy the identity of the tower called Nationalism (Patriotism). I began to pray for this terrible storm: that there would be survivors in the tower called Nationalism (Patriotism), and that it would prevail.
After this vision ended, I felt I needed to find out the meaning. So, I started looking for the location in New York City of the United Nations Building. I felt this was probably the hub of Globalism. Then I wondered the location of Trump Tower in New York City, for I knew Donald Trump embraces Nationalism (Patriotism). I was totally shocked when I saw the picture. Trump World Tower is directly across the road from the United Nations Building. There was my vision. The battle of the two towers, a prophetic picture.

The United Nations Building is the gray, 3-tier building on the left, and the Trump World Tower is the tallest, black one on the right.

I find this letter very informative. It is written by the former Catholic Representative to America to president Trump. It is written from this Catholic position and contains information we need to consider. KPS has been created to help keep prophetic people informed of current events as they affect the Body of Christ.

Thanks

OPEN LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

DONALD J. TRUMP

Sunday, October 25, 2020

Solemnity of Christ the King

Mr. President,

Allow me to address you at this hour in which the fate of the whole world is being threatened by a global conspiracy against God and humanity. I write to you as an Archbishop, as a Successor of the Apostles, as the former Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America. I am writing to you in the midst of the silence of both civil and religious authorities. May you accept these words of mine as the "voice of one crying out in the desert" (Jn 1:23).

As I said when I wrote my letter to you in June, this historical moment sees the forces of Evil aligned in a battle without quarter against the forces of Good; forces of Evil that appear powerful and organized as they oppose the children of Light, who are disoriented and disorganized, abandoned by their temporal and spiritual leaders.

Daily we sense the attacks multiplying of those who want to destroy the very basis of society: the natural family, respect for human life, love of country, freedom of education and business. We see heads of nations and religious leaders pandering to this suicide of Western culture and its Christian soul, while the fundamental rights of citizens and believers are denied in the name of a health emergency that is revealing itself more and more fully as instrumental to the establishment of an inhuman faceless tyranny

A global plan called the Great Reset is underway. Its architect is a global élite that wants to subdue all of humanity, imposing coercive measures with which to drastically limit individual freedoms and those of entire populations. In several nations this plan has already been approved and financed; in others it is still in an early stage. Behind the world leaders who are the accomplices and executors of this infernal project, there are unscrupulous characters who finance the World Economic Forum and Event 201, promoting their agenda.

The purpose of the Great Reset is the imposition of a health dictatorship aiming at the imposition of liberticidal measures, hidden behind tempting promises of ensuring a universal income and cancelling individual debt. The price of these concessions from the International Monetary Fund will be the renunciation of private property and adherence to a program of vaccination against Covid-19 and Covid-21 promoted by Bill Gates with the collaboration of the main pharmaceutical groups. Beyond the enormous economic interests that motivate the promoters of the Great Reset, the imposition of the vaccination will be accompanied by the requirement of a health passport and a digital ID, with the consequent contact tracing of the population of the entire world. Those who do not accept these measures will be confined in detention camps or placed under house arrest, and all their assets will be confiscated.

Mr. President, I imagine that you are already aware that in some countries the Great Reset will be activated between the end of this year and the first trimester of 2021. For this purpose, further lockdowns are planned, which will be officially justified by a supposed second and third wave of the pandemic. You are well aware of the means that have been deployed to sow panic and legitimize draconian limitations on individual liberties, artfully provoking a world-wide economic crisis. In the intentions of its architects, this crisis will serve to make the recourse of nations to the Great Reset irreversible, thereby giving the final blow to a world whose existence and very memory they want to completely cancel. But this world, Mr. President, includes people, affections, institutions, faith, culture, traditions, and ideals: people and values that do not act like automatons, who do not obey like machines, because they are endowed with a soul and a heart, because they are tied together by a spiritual bond that draws its strength from above, from that God that our adversaries want to challenge, just as Lucifer did at the beginning of time with his "non serviam."

Many people -- as we well know -- are annoyed by this reference to the clash between Good and Evil and the use of "apocalyptic" overtones, which according to them exasperates spirits and sharpens divisions. It is not surprising that the enemy is angered at being discovered just when he believes he has reached the citadel he seeks to conquer undisturbed. What is surprising, however, is that there is no one to sound the alarm. The reaction of the deep state to those who denounce its plan is broken and incoherent, but understandable. Just when the complicity of the mainstream media had succeeded in making the transition to the New World Order almost painless and unnoticed, all sorts of deceptions, scandals and crimes are coming to light.

Until a few months ago, it was easy to smear as "conspiracy theorists" those who denounced these terrible plans, which we now see being carried out down to the smallest detail. No one, up until last February, would ever have thought that, in all of our cities, citizens would be arrested simply for wanting to walk down the street, to breathe, to want to keep their business open, to want to go to church on Sunday. Yet now it is happening all over the world, even in picture-postcard Italy that many Americans consider to be a small enchanted country, with its ancient monuments, its churches, its charming cities, its characteristic villages. And while the politicians are barricaded inside their palaces promulgating decrees like Persian satraps, businesses are failing, shops are closing, and people are prevented from living, traveling, working, and praying. The disastrous psychological consequences of this operation are already being seen, beginning with the suicides of desperate entrepreneurs and of our children, segregated from friends and classmates, told to follow their classes while sitting at home alone in front of a computer.


In Sacred Scripture, Saint Paul speaks to us of "the one who opposes" the manifestation of the mystery of iniquity, the kathèkon (2 Thess 2:6-7). In the religious sphere, this obstacle to evil is the Church, and in particular the papacy; in the political sphere, it is those who impede the establishment of the New World Order.

As is now clear, the one who occupies the Chair of Peter has betrayed his role from the very beginning in order to defend and promote the globalist ideology, supporting the agenda of the deep church, who chose him from its ranks.

Mr. President, you have clearly stated that you want to defend the nation -- One Nation under God, fundamental liberties, and non-negotiable values that are denied and fought against today. It is you, dear President, who are "the one who opposes" the deep state, the final assault of the children of darkness.

For this reason, it is necessary that all people of good will be persuaded of the epochal importance of the imminent election: not so much for the sake of this or that political program, but because of the general inspiration of your action that best embodies -- in this particular historical context -- that world, our world, which they want to cancel by means of the lockdown. Your adversary is also our adversary: it is the Enemy of the human race, He who is "a murderer from the beginning" (Jn 8:44).

Around you are gathered with faith and courage those who consider you the final garrison against the world dictatorship. The alternative is to vote for a person who is manipulated by the deep state, gravely compromised by scandals and corruption, who will do to the United States what Jorge Mario Bergoglio is doing to the Church, Prime Minister Conte to Italy, President Macron to France, Prime Minster Sanchez to Spain, and so on. The blackmailable nature of Joe Biden -- just like that of the prelates of the Vatican's "magic circle" -- will exposehim to be used unscrupulously, allowing illegitimate powers to interfere in both domestic politics as well as international balances. It is obvious that those who manipulate him already have someone worse than him ready, with whom they will replace him as soon as the opportunity arises.

And yet, in the midst of this bleak picture, this apparently unstoppable advance of the "Invisible Enemy," an element of hope emerges. The adversary does not know how to love, and it does not understand that it is not enough to assure a universal income or to cancel mortgages in order to subjugate the masses and convince them to be branded like cattle. This people, which for too long has endured the abuses of a hateful and tyrannical power, is rediscovering that it has a soul; it is understanding that it is not willing to exchange its freedom for the homogenization and cancellation of its identity; it is beginning to understand the value of familial and social ties, of the bonds of faith and culture that unite honest people. This Great Reset is destined to fail because those who planned it do not understand that there are still people ready to take to the streets to defend their rights, to protect their loved ones, to give a future to their childrenand grandchildren. The leveling inhumanity of the globalist project will shatter miserably in the face of the firm and courageous opposition of the children of Light. The enemy has Satan on its side, He who only knows how to hate. But on our side,we have the Lord Almighty, the God of armies arrayed for battle, and the Most Holy Virgin, who will crush the headof the ancient Serpent. "If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Rom 8:31).

Mr. President, you are well aware that, in this crucial hour, the United States of America is considered the defending wall against which the war declared by the advocates of globalism has been unleashed. Place your trust in the Lord, strengthened by the words of the Apostle Paul: "I can do all things in Him who strengthens me" (Phil 4:13). To be an instrument of Divine Providence is a great responsibility, for which you will certainly receive all the graces of state that you need, since they are being fervently implored for you by the many people who support you with their prayers.

With this heavenly hope and the assurance of my prayer for you, for the First Lady, and for your collaborators, with all my heart I send you my blessing.

God bless the United States of America!
