"And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass." Revelation 21:21

HISTORY - LESSON 1 : The Church in the Wilderness . Sometimes you must have Faith and believe the revelations and the answers of God. One of the big questions people ask is, if the Evangelical (Good News) Faith is true, why do we not see proof of them being there from now. right back to Jesus?
The prophet Elijah thought he was almost the only person left keeping the Faith in the Old Testament. It is also described in the Book of Romans:
"the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,
Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace."
Romans 11: 2-5 .
photo.... if you read Revelation 12 this is not how the woman appears. She appears like Israel with 12 stars on her head, spiritual Israel is now the true church.
So throughout history there have been, and will be, times were falling away happens, and only relatively few people are true Christians. In Revelation chapter 12 there is a woman, who perfectly fits the dreams of the prophet Joseph about the people Israel. It says in Romans 9 & 11 that the woman spiritual Israel is now the church, made up of people of every nation. This woman is persecuted in the wilderness by the devil, all the way from Jesus going up into heaven, up until the Time of the End, when the Beast, false prophet, and 666 system appear. This is because Christians will be forced to his at the end of the age from the 666 mark,
This is one of the reasons God allowed so many babies and children to die very young in those ancient times. So they could be saved from being indoctrinated into a false violent form of Christianity that was involved in never ending wars, violence, torture, the Holy Inquisition, The Crusades, witch burning, and other terrible things proving they were false churches, that chased real believers out into the wilderness.
All the children and babies who died, some say are "just saved" but evidence will be put on this website that babies and children who die will go into the Millennium Kingdom to be tested in a similar way as we are tested here now.
A Falling Away first.....
quote:
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God." 2 Thessalonians 2: 3-4 .
There is a lot of credibility in the belief that "the man of sin" or "son of perdition" is not the same as the man called "the beast" in Revelation 13, they are two different people, and that "the man of sin" is the Pope, who builds a fake temple of God for himself in Rome, and his followers are the seed of people who fell away around the time of Constantine into what is called sacerdotalism, the false Catholic belief in salvation by fake magic tricks and man made rituals, instead of just Jesus.
King Henry VIIIth of England, killed Protestants and Roman Catholics. Why?
HISTORY - LESSON 2 : Is the catholic slur true?
"The church of England (Anglicanism) started in the bed of Henry VIIIth."
Firstly please be aware that the man who influenced Henry VIIIth, the German ex-monk Martin Luther, was not the first person to stand away from the Catholic and Orthodox churches. Before this was the English reformer John Wycliffe and his followers the Lollards. The real definition of a "church" or the worldwide church is "Those who believe the Gospel by which we are saved, and who are then born again, becoming God's children." Where two or three are gathered together in the name of Jesus, there he is in the midst of them.
The reason that Henry the VIIIth positively did not start the modern church of England, or Anglicanism, is that Henry VIIIth in reality preached something called "The middle way" which was a halfy halfy type new false church idea, where he blended together Catholic and Protestant beliefs, to form what was in reality a new cult or sect. This meant that if you look at Henry's reign, he was killing off both Protestants and Catholics, including William Tyndale, his friend John Frith, Anne Askew, Thomas Cromwell, to name but a few, and some say he murdered 430 Catholics, and as part of his "middle way" , including Catholic Bishop John Fisher, executed for treason, for refusing to take the Oath of Succession and accept Henry as the Supreme Head of the Church of England, another of his heresies (even to Protestants) along with divorce and remarriage his first Catholic wife was still alive during his lustful 2nd marriages. Do not forget he also had the heresy. not part of real Christianity, of executing people.
This totally proves Henry VIIIth did not start the modern church of England, or Anglicanism, and that the church of England did not "start in his bed" as Catholics often say. Henry VIIIth was a cult leader who was neither Catholic or Protestant, and a self centered psychopath.
