MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT

CATHOLIC OR JEWISH?



And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and
precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and
filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF
THE EARTH. Revelation 17:4-5

INTRODUCTION

As a rule, theories of a Jewish conspiracy for world domination condemn all
Jews as megalomaniac conspirators and the enemies of mankind. However, any
treatment of a Jewish conspiracy must take into account the ancient schism that
divided the nation of Israel in Biblical times. This division was precipitated by the
apostasy of King Solomon, whose idolatry was afterward carried on by the
northern tribes. This ancient schism has profoundly affected the subsequent
history of the Jews and is the dynamic of the alleged Jewish conspiracy of the
present day.

Following the death of King Solomon, the tribes of Israel separated into two
independent kingdoms. The ten northern tribes formed the northern kingdom of
Israel and the southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin were thereafter called the
kingdom of Judah. The schism between Judah and Israel, from which the
Israelites never recovered, is recorded in 1 Kings. The Daily Bible Study gives a
brief overview:

One of the most misunderstood subjects of Bible study
involves the total political division of Israel and Judah that
occurred at the time of King Rehoboam. Before then, all twelve
tribes of Israelites were a united kingdom through the reigns of
David and Solomon, but after Solomons death they split into two
completely separate and independent kingdoms - the southern
kingdom of Judah, consisting of the tribes of Judah and
Benjamin, with part of Levi since the Levites were distributed
among the other tribes (1 Kings 12:23) with their capital at
Jerusalem, and the northern kingdom of Israel, consisting of the
other ten tribes (Reuben, Simeon, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher,
Issachar, Zebulun, Ephraim and Manasseh (Joseph was divided
into Ephraim and Manasseh), with part of Levi since the Levites
were distributed among the other tribes), with their capital up in
Samaria.
Israel and Judah were never united again... Surprisingly, they
even fought wars against each other from time to time... A very
important fact that many do not realize is that Judah, that is, the
Jewish people of today, are only one of the tribes of Israel - while
all Jews are Israelites, not all Israelites are Jews.
Because of their forsaking of Him, God permitted the two
kingdoms to be destroyed. First, the northern kingdom of Israel
was gradually conquered by the Assyrians, and by 721 B.C. they
had practically all been taken into exile to Assyria (2 Kings 17:1-
23). The vast majority of them never returned, and have become
known as the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel.
Then, about 135 years later, by 586 B.C., the southern kingdom
of Judah was completely conquered by the Babylonians,... and the
people of Judah were taken into captivity to Babylon. The original
Temple of God in Jerusalem was destroyed at that time... The
people of the southern kingdom of Judah however did return after
the Babylonians fell to the Persians..., and their descendants have
become the Jewish people of today - but that return in the time of
Nehemiah, or the founding of the modern state of Israel in 1948,
were not the fulfillment of the many prophecies dealing with the
future (as the context of the prophecies clearly show) gathering of
all of Israel, Israel and Judah.

The designation Jew belonged exclusively to the southern kingdom of Judah,
the very word Jew having been derived from Judah. And so technically, only
the kingdom of Judah was Jewish and the other tribes of Israel have no right to
call themselves Jews. That this distinction was understood in the Old Testament is
seen in II Kings 16:5-6 (KJV) where the people of Israel and the King of Syria
fought against the Jews of the southern kingdom.

In the New Testament, in His message to the Church at Smyrna, the Lord Jesus
Christ referred to a synagogue of Satan as them which say they are Jews, and
are not. In other words, there was a synagogue of Israel that was not Jewish:

I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich)
and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and
are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Fear none of those things
which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you
into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten
days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of
life. (Rev. 2:9-10)

The Synagogue of Satan which is the subject of this series must not be confused
with the Remnant of Jews, who will receive the Lord Jesus Christ at His Second
Coming and be saved by Him. The Synagogue of Satan are an occult power elite
which, having rejected Jesus Christ as the Messiah of Israel, conspire to substitute
another messiah made in the image of their master, Satan, and to establish a world
kingdom under Satan. The Synagogue of Satan claims Jewish descent, but does
not fit God's definition of a Jew, either in the Old Testament or the New: But he
is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit,
and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. (Romans 2:29)

The Synagogue of Satan have contempt, not only for Jesus Christ, His Church and
the Gentile masses, but for the Jewish Remnant who are Torah-observant and
anti-Zionist and are, therefore, awaiting the kingdom of Israel to be restored when
the Messiah appears, and not before. As well, the Synagogue of Satan have
conspired to eliminate all people, whether Jew or Gentile, who stand in the way of
their world kingdom. To this end they have developed a staggering number of
fronts, as well as the capacity to create blinds and diversions, to obscure the fact
that they are Cabalist Jews with an anti-Christ agenda. Through the centuries, the
Synagogue of Satan have, by means of false identities, infiltrated Gentile
institutions where they act as agents provocateursundercover agents who
provoke violence and beget scandals, which are used to bring reproach upon Jesus
Christ and His Church.

The division within Jewry is no longer neatly delineated along tribal boundaries;
rather the lines have been spiritually drawn between the Synagogue of Satan and
the Remnant of Israel

I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather
the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of
Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make
great noise by reason of the multitude of men. (Micah 2:12)

The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither
shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed
and lie down, and none shall make them afraid. (Zeph. 3:13; see
also 2 Chron. 34:9, Isaiah 10:20, Jer. 6:9, 31:7, Ezek. 11:13)

Scripture is clear that the plans of the Synagogue of Satan shall utterly fail, and
that they will ultimately be destroyed. What fraction of all Israel does the
Synagogue of Satan represent? The Old Testament prophets foretold their
proportions at the time they attack Jerusalem, whose rescue and restoration will
be accomplished by the Lord Himself:

The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory
of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem
do not magnify themselves against Judah. In that day shall the
LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble
among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David
shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them. And it
shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the
nations that come against Jerusalem...
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD,
two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be
left therein. And I will bring the third part through the fire, and
will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is
tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say,
It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God. (Zech.
12:7-10; 13:8,9)

In that day, saith the LORD, will I assemble her that halteth, and I
will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted; And
I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off
a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign over them in mount
Zion from henceforth, even for ever. And thou, O tower of the
flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it
come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the
daughter of Jerusalem. (Mic. 4:1,2,6-8)

THE CABALA

Following the division of Israel and the Assyrian captivity of the northern tribes,
the southern kingdom of Judah adopted the pagan traditions of the heathen nation
of ancient Babylon. These traditions, with their associated rituals which included
human sacrifice, provoked God to judge the southern kingdom, of which
judgment the prophet Jeremiah forewarned the Jews for a period of forty years, to
no avail. The Babylonians destroyed Jerusalem in three stages, from 605 to 586
B.C., in which year the Temple of Solomon was demolished and the remaining
Jews were carried into captivity. During the Babylonian captivity, the prophet
Ezekiel continued to reprove Judah for its apostasy from the God of Israel and
their love affair with Babylon. Note, in the following passage, the Jews
admiration for the images of rich, brightly attired Babylonian princes, which
evoke visual images of the elegant processions of the princes of the Roman
Catholic Church attired in their rich and colorful vestments:

...[Jerusalem] increased her whoredoms: for when she saw men
pourtrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans pourtrayed
with vermilion, Girded with girdles upon their loins, exceeding in
dyed attire upon their heads, all of them princes to look to, after the
manner of the Babylonians of Chaldea, the land of their nativity:
And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she doted upon them,
and sent messengers unto them into Chaldea. And the Babylonians
came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their
whoredom, and she was polluted with them, and her mind was
alienated from them. So she discovered her whoredoms, and
discovered her nakedness: then my mind was alienated from her...
(Ezek.23:14-18)

Moreover, as Matthew Henry noted in his commentary on this passage, the
kingdom of Judah patterned its own worship after the pomp and pageantry of the
Babylonians with whom they had become enamored:

Thus she increased her whoredoms; she fell in love, fell in league,
with the Chaldeans. Hezekiah himself was faulty this way when he
was proud of the court which the king of Babylon made to him and
complimented his ambassadors with the sight of all his treasures,
Isa. 39:2. And the humour increased (v. 14); she doted upon the
pictures of the Babylonian captains (v. 15, 16), joined in alliance
with that kingdom, invited them to come and settle in Jerusalem,
that they might refine the genius of the Jewish nation and make it
more polite; nay, they sent for patterns of their images, altars, and
temples, and made use of them in their worship. Thus was she
polluted with her whoredoms (v. 17), and thereby she discovered
her own whoredom (v. 18), her own strong inclination to idolatry.

According to two authoritative sources, H.P. Blavatsky and the Jewish
Encyclopedia, the Jews also acquired from the Chaldeans their doctrines of
Eastern mysticism. These were later developed into a written compendium of
esoteric literature known as the Jewish Qabbalah or Kabalah, and in the Middle
Ages as the Latin Cabala.

Kabalah (Heb.) The hidden wisdom of the Hebrew Rabbis of the
middle ages derived from the older secret doctrines concerning
divine things and cosmogony, which were combined into a
theology after the time of the captivity of the Jews in Babylon. All
the works that fall under the esoteric category are termed
Kabalistic. (Blavatsky, Theosophical Glossary, p. 168)

The Pythagorean idea of the creative powers of numbers and
letters, upon which the Sefer Yetzirah is founded, and which was
known in tannaitic timesis here proved to be an old cabalistic
conception. In fact, the belief in the magic power of the letters of
the Tetragrammaton and other names of the Deityseems to have
originated in Chaldea (see Lenormant, Chaldean Magic, pp. 29,
43). Whatever, then, the theurgic Cabala was , the very fact that
Abraham, and not a Talmudical hero like Akiba, is introduced in
the Sefer Yetzirah, at the close, as possessor of the Wisdom of
the Alphabet, indicates an old tradition, if not the antiquity of the
book itself
The whole dualistic system of good and of evil powers, which
goes back to Zoroastrianism and ultimately to old Chaldea, can
be traced through Gnosticism; having influenced the cosmology of
the ancient Cabala before it reached the medieval one
The gradual condensation of a primal substance into visible
matter, a fundamental doctrine of the Cabala, is the ancient
Semitic conception of the primal ocean, known to the
Babylonians as Apsu (compare Jastrow, Religion of
Babylonia), and called by the Gnostics = (Anz, Die Frage
nach dem Ursprung des Gnostizismus, p. 98).

The Chaldean religious tradition that was embraced by apostate Jews during their
captivity in Babylon was delivered to subsequent generations by word of mouth.
According to Blavatsky, these disseminators of the Chaldean tradition in the few
centuries before Christ were known as Tanaim:

Kabalist. From Q B L H, Kabala, an unwritten or oral tradition.
The kabalist is a student of secret science, one who interprets the
hidden meaning of the Scriptures with the help of the symbolical
Kabala The Tanaim were the first kabalists among the Jews;
they appeared at Jerusalem about the beginning of the third century
before the Christian era This secret doctrine is identical with the
Persian wisdom, or magic. (Ibid. p.167)

The dictionary defines the Medieval Latin cabala as derived from the Hebrew
word qabb l which means received doctrine, tradition, from qibb l, to
receive. According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, Cabalists claimed to have
received these oral traditions, not from ancient Chaldeans, but from the Patriarchs
and Prophets by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Cabala comprised originally the entire traditional lore, in
contradistinction to the written law (Torah), and therefore included
the prophetic and hagiographic books of the Bible, which were
supposed to have been received by the power of the Holy Spirit
rather than as writings from Gods hand... Each received
doctrine was claimed as tradition from the Fathers...to be traced
back to the Prophets or to Moses on Sinai... The chief
characteristic of the Cabala is that, unlike the Scriptures, it was
entrusted only to the few elect ones;

Because of its heretical nature, the Cabala was not generally promulgated among
the Jews but remained the secret doctrine of elect Jews. That is to say, certain
Jews who were deemed worthy could comprehend hidden teachings in the written
Torah and, through mystical techniques, make direct contact with God. Among
these practices are rapid recitation of the Holy Name of God (YHVH, or
Tetragrammaton), meditation on the 11 Sephiroth of the Tree of Life which are
believed to be emanations of God, learning to use the 22 letters of the Hebrew
alphabet as force-carrying energy patterns which serve as the building blocks of
the cosmos, and, finally, transcending the space/time limitations of the physical
world to realize ones inner divinity. This secret doctrine has been preserved
throughout the ages to the present time by a spiritual brotherhood who progress
individually to various stages of enlightenment and proficiency in the hidden
wisdomfrom elect to adepts to wise men to adepts in grace:

Cabala... The specific term for the esoteric or mystic doctrine
concerning God and the universe, asserted to have come down as a
revelation to elect saints from a remote past, and preserved only by
a privileged few. At first consisting only of empirical lore, it
assumed, under the influence of Neoplatonic and Neopythagorean
philosophy, a speculative character. In the geonic period it is
connected with a Mishnah-like text-book, the Sefer Yetzirah, and
forms the object of the systematic study of the elect, called
mekubbalim or baale ha-kabbalah (possessors of, or adepts in,
the Cabala). These receive afterward the name of maskilim (the
wise), after Dan. xii. 10; and because the Cabala is called
(Hokmah nistarah = the hidden wisdom), the initials of which are
, they receive also the name of (adepts in grace) (Eccl. ix. 11,
Hebr.). (Ibid.)

THE PHARISEES

The Tanaim, which meant teacher of the law, were the Scribes, the rabbis
whom Blavatsky identified as the first Kabalists. From the ranks of the Scribes
evolved the sect of the Pharisees. According to Occult Theocrasy, by Edith Starr
Miller, the creators of the Cabala were the Pharisees, who had formed their sect in
Babylon during the captivity and functioned as a secret society after the Jews
returned to Israel. The secret doctrine of Babylon remained the oral tradition of
the Pharisees until they committed it to written form:

In his book Nicholas II et les Juifs, Netchvolodow explains that
the Chaldean science acquired by many of the Jewish priests,
during the captivity of Babylon, gave birth to the sect of the
Pharisees whose name only appears in the Holy Scriptures and in
the writings of the Jewish historians after the captivity (606 B.C.).
The works of the celebrated scientist Munk leaves no doubt on the
point that the sect appeared during the period of the captivity.
From then dates the Cabala or Tradition of the
Pharisees. For a long time their precepts were only
transmitted orally but later they formed the Talmud
and received their final form in the book called the
Sepher ha Zohar.
The Pharisees were, as it were, a class whose tendency was to
form a kind of intellectual aristocracy among the Jews. At first,
they formed a sort of brotherhood, a haburah, the members being
called haburim or brothers. They were a subversive element,
aiming at the overthrow of the Sadducean High-priesthood, whose
members prided themselves on their aristocracy of blood and birth,
to which the Pharisees opposed an aristocracy of learning. The war
raged by the latter extends over a long period of time, and the
rivalry was bitter...
The power of the Sadducees fell with the destruction of the
Temple by Titus and thenceforth the Pharisaic element held
supremacy among the Jews. Quoting an acknowledged authority
on Judaism, Mr. Flavien Brenier, Lt. Gen. Netchvolodow further
describes the policy of the sect as follows:
Before appearing proudly as the expression of
Jewish aspirations, The Tradition of the Pharisees
had serious difficulties to surmount, the chief of
which was the revival of the orthodox faith
stimulated in the Jewish people by the Captivity. To
the exiles, bemoaning the fall of the Temple of
Jerusalem and begging Jehovah to end the
misfortunes of their homeland, the revelation that
Jehovah was only a phantom, entailed not only a
certain defeat, but also their own exposure to perils
the least of which would have been the loss of all
authority over Israel.
The Pharisees, then, judging it wiser to capture
the confidence of their compatriots by taking the
lead in the religious movement, affected a
scrupulous observance of the slightest
prescriptions of the law and instituted the practice
of complicated rituals, simultaneously however
cultivating the new doctrine [i.e. secret doctrine]
in their secret sanctuaries. These were regular
secret societies, composed during the captivity of a
few hundred adepts. At the time of Flavius Josephus
which was that of their greatest prosperity, they
numbered only some 6,000 members. (Occult
Theocrasy, pp. 76-78)

To these hypocrites, Jesus reserved His most scathing condemnations:

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like
unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward,
but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all
uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto
men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. (Matt.
23:27-28)

And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of
God, that ye may keep your own tradition... Making the word of
God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have
delivered: and many such like things do ye. (Mark 7:9,13)

According to Occult Theocrasy, the Pharisees assumed the outward appearance of
religious scrupulosity all the while they were conducting pagan rites in secret, as
did their antecedents, the elders of Judah, in the Temple of Solomon, as the Lord
revealed to the prophet Ezekiel.

Then said he unto me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes now the way
toward the north. So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the
north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of
jealousy in the entry. He said furthermore unto me, Son of man,
seest thou what they do? even the great abominations that the
house of Israel committeth here, that I should go far off from my
sanctuary? but turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater
abominations. And he brought me to the door of the court; and
when I looked, behold a hole in the wall. Then said he unto me,
Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the
wall, behold a door. And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the
wicked abominations that they do here. So I went in and saw; and
behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and
all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round
about. And there stood before them seventy men of the ancients of
the house of Israel, and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the
son of Shaphan, with every man his censer in his hand; and a thick
cloud of incense went up. Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast
thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark,
every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, The
LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth. He said
also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater
abominations that they do. Then he brought me to the door of the
gate of the LORD'S house which was toward the north; and,
behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz. (Ezekiel 8: 5-14)

Netchvolodow likens the Pharisees to our modern Freemasons, whose Gnostic
and dominionist agenda were subversive of society. Compare Netchvolodows
characterization of the Pharisees to our modern Zionists, i.e. the Judeo-
Freemasons, who are secret practitioners of the Kabalah, while affecting to hold
to the traditional beliefs of Judaism as set forth in the Old Testament.

This group of intellectual pantheists was soon
to acquire a directing influence over the Jewish
nation. Nothing, moreover, likely to offend national
sentiment ever appeared in their doctrines. However
saturated with pantheistic Chaldeism they might
have been, the Pharisees preserved their ethnic pride
intact. This religion of Man divinised, which they
had absorbed at Babylon, they conceived solely as
applying to the profit of the Jew, the superior and
predestined being. The promises of universal
dominion which the orthodox Jew found in the
Law, the Pharisees did not interpret in the sense of
the reign of the God of Moses over the nations, but
in that of a material domination to be imposed on
the universe by the Jews. The awaited Messiah
was no longer the Redeemer of original Sin, a
spiritual victor who would lead the world, it was a
temporal king, bloody with battle, who would
make Israel master of the world and drag all
peoples under the wheels of his chariot. The
Pharisees did not ask this enslavement of the
nations of a mystical Jehovah, which they continued
worshipping in public, only as a concession to
popular opinion, for they expected its eventual
consummation to be achieved by the secular
patience of Israel and the use of human means.
Monstrously different from the ancient law
were such principles as these, but they had nothing
one could see, which might have rendered
unpopular those who let them filter, drop by drop,
among the Jews.
The admirably conceived organization of the
Pharisees did not fail soon to bear fruit.
One cannot better define its action in the midst
of Jewish society before Jesus Christ, said Mr.
Flavien Brenier, than in comparing it with that of
the Freemasons in modern society.
A carefully restricted membership tightly
bound, imposing on their members the religion of
the secret, the Pharisees pursued relentlessly their
double aim which was:
1. The seizure of political power, by the
possession of the great political offices (the
influence of which was tremendous in the
reconstituted Jewish nation) and the conquest of the
Sanhedrin (Jewish parliament).
2. To modify gradually the conceptions of
the people in the direction of their secret
doctrine...
The second of these aims and its method of
attainment is exposed in the so-called Protocols of
the Wise Men of Zion so loudly denounced by the
descendants of those who devised The Secret
Doctrine in Israel, Israel here meaning the Jews as a
religious community, most of whom remain quite
ignorant of the intricate subversive schemes
imputed to them.
The attitude of Jesus Christ to this sect is
definitely expressed in the New Testament (see
Luke XI and John VIII (Ibid. pp.76-80)

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites,
for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men
that walk over them are not aware of them. (Luke
11:44)

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of
your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the
beginning, and abode not in the truth because there
is no truth in him (John 8:44)

Here is confirmation of a long-standing division within Jewry that is in evidence
today between the Zionist High Cabal and the non-Zionist, Torah Jews, as well as
the common Jew who knows nothing of the Cabalists diabolical schemes
perpetrated upon the Gentile world and even upon their own race.

THE ESSENES

Another faction within Jewry associated with the Kabalah were the Essenes, a
monastic community which lived in the desert of Qumran, the area near the Dead
Sea which had formerly been Gomorrah. The Jewish Encyclopedia describes the
cabalistic practices of the Essenes, which were Judaized elements of Eastern
mystical traditions:

So, too, were the Essenes familiar with the idea of the journey to
heavenand they were also masters of angelology. The practise
of magic and incantation, the angelology and demonology, were
borrowed from Babylonia, Persia, and Egypt; but these foreign
elements were Judaized in the process, and took the form of the
mystical adoration of the name of God and of speculations
regarding the mysterious power of the Hebrew alphabet , the
name of God creates and destroys worlds), to become, finally,
foundations of the philosophy of the Sefer Yetzirah. (Jewish
Encyclopedia)

According to the Jewish historian, Flavius Josephus, as cited in the Jewish Encyclopedia,
the Essenes were guardians of the secret writings of the Cabala:

In fact, the apocalyptic literature belonging to the second and first
pre-Christian centuries contained the chief elements of the Cabala;
and as, according to Josephus (l.c.), such writings were in the
possession of the Essenes, and were jealously guarded by them
against disclosure, for which they claimed a hoary antiquity (see
Philo, De Vita Contemplativa, iii., and Hippolytus, Refutation of
all Heresies, ix. 27) (Ibid.)

The Essenes claimed to be the legitimate sons of Zadok, or Temple priesthood.
They are credited with writing the Dead Sea Scrolls which were discovered in
1945 and are now being promoted as the oldest known copies of Jewish scripture.
According to a Coptic-Orthodox source, Gnosis is a key word in the scrolls of
the Jewish Essene sect found at Qumran. H.P. Blavatsky noted that the Essenes
were pagan priests of the Greek goddess, Diana of Ephesus, where the Tanaim
had established a college for instruction in the Chaldean mystery religion:

Essenes... They had many Buddhistic ideas and practices; and it is
noteworthy that the priests of the Great Mother at Ephesus, Diana-
Bhavani with many breasts, were also denominated... It was at
Ephesus where was the great College of the Essenes and all the
lore the Tanaim had brought from the Chaldees... Essenes,
believed in reincarnation. (Theosophical Glossary, pp. 113-14;
The Secret Doctrine, Vol. II, p. 111n)

The Masonic writers, Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas, are part of a great
campaign to legitimize the Dead Sea Scrolls as the true scriptures and the Essenes
as the rightful priesthood of Israel (based on personal sanctity rather than lineage).
They further misrepresent Jesus and John the Baptist as high-ranking Essenes and
the Qumran Community as the original Jerusalem Church:

That the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls, who we know call
the Qumran Community, were Essenes is now beyond doubt; and
that these people were the Nasoreans or the original Jerusalem
Church
To us it seems inescapable that the man who was Jesus the
Christ must have been a leading Qumranian figure during the
crucial years of the third and fourth decades of the first century.
The communitys numbers were tiny at that time, possibly no more
than two hundred people, and perhaps there were little more than
around four thousand Essenes in total. Theysaw imminent
salvation from their problems through holiness and, although they
were not hereditary priests, through living a monastic existence.
This involved a society that was extremely hierarchical, from the
Guardian or Grand Master downwards
Initiation into the higher echelons required vows of secrecy
that carried threat of horrible punishments should the secrets of the
brotherhood be revealed to the outside world. This sounds like a
highly Masonic practice They wore white robes, took vows of
poverty, swore to secrecy under threat of terrible punishment and
claimed to possess secret knowledge
Finally the imagination of Ezekiel establishes the rules for the
priesthood that would become the landmarks of the Essenes of
Qumran. The legitimate priests of the sanctuary are to be the sons
of Zadok, the erstwhile chief priest. Known to the people of
Qumran as Zadokites, these sons of Zadok would wear white linen
garments when they entered the inner court. (The Hiram Key, pp.
54-58, 181)

Knight and Lomas also inadvertently reveal that an Essene monk will be the False
Prophet who rises to power during the Tribulation period. Acclaimed as a
Teacher of Righteousness and an Interpreter of the Law, this Cabalist will
re-institute the proper worship in the Temple of Jerusalem:

Whoever the Teacher of Righteousness was, he must have been
a pious, holy man and apparently was a priestly descendant of
Zadok, who revealed to his Community that they were living in a
time that would be the end of days as predicted by the old
prophets. Soon, he told them, God would crush His enemies in a
final cosmic battle and usher in the new age of righteousness, and
as the Community was the last remnant of true Israelthe people
of Yahweh's covenantit would be they who would fight the
battle and would return to Jerusalem to purify the Temple and re-
institute proper worship.
...God, however, will save His people by the hands of two
messianic figures who will arise at the end of time; one from the
Branch of David and the other the Interpreter of the Law.
(Ibid., p. 201-2)

In The White Goddess, Robert Graves associated the Essenes with the apostate
tribe of Dan, the tribe of Samson, the Nazarite who judged Israel: I also suggest
in King Jesus that the two mysterious Orders of the Essenes, Sampsonians and
Helicaeans, were adepts in the calendar mysteries and were named after
Samson...and the Helix, or cosmic circle. (p. 150) It is possible that Samsons
riddle was a prophecy that, at a future time, the tribe of Dan would try to usurp
the messianic lineage of the tribe of Judah and inaugurate a pagan messianic
kingdom. [See: The Lost Tribe of Dan] Graves states previously, Though Jews...
they believed in the Western Paradise which is a reference to Atlantis Isles of
the Blest (p.149).

The Essenes, which appeared in Judea during the Hasmonean dynasty (the
Maccabean revolt against the Greeks) and continued through the Herodian
dynasty, abruptly disappeared after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. Robert
Graves stated in The White Goddess that the Alexandrian Gnostics...were the
spiritual heirs of the Essenes after Hadrian had suppressed the Order in 132 A.D.
(p.150)

THE ALEXANDRIAN GNOSTICS

Alexandria, Egypt was a center of interchange of religious ideas as well as the
intellectual meeting point between the Jews and the Greeks. After the fall of
Jerusalem, Alexandria would become the epicenter from which the Cabalist Jews,
who had synthesized their Chaldean witchcraft with Neo-Platonic philosophy,
would cloak the new Cabalism in Christian terminology and attempt to penetrate
the fledgling Church with heresy. As the origins of the Cabala were documented
in the Chaldean mystery religion, the Jewish Encyclopedia locates the source of
Gnosticism in Jewish Cabalism:

But especially does Gnosticism testify to the antiquity of the
Cabala. Of Chaldean origin... Gnosticism was Jewish in
character long before it became Christian... Gnosticismthat
is, the cabalistic Hokmah (wisdom)seems to have been the first
attempt on the part of the Jewish sages to give the empirical mystic
lore, with the help of Platonic and Pythagorean or Stoic ideas, a
speculative turn; hence the danger of heresyof which the
systems of Philo, an adept in Cabala...show many pitfalls...
Jewish gnosticism unquestionably antedates Christianity,
for Biblical exegesis had already reached an age of five hundred
years by the first century C.E. Judaism had been in close contact
with Babylonian-Persian ideas for at least that length of time,
and for nearly as long a period with Hellenistic ideas. Magic, also,
which,...was a not unimportant part of the doctrines and
manifestations of gnosticism, largely occupied Jewish thinkers.
There is, in general, no circle of ideas to which elements of
gnosticism have been traced, and with which the Jews were not
acquainted. (Jewish Encyclopedia)

Since the secret doctrine of the Alexandrian Gnostics was simply a
Christianized version of that found in the Cabala, we are not surprised to find
many correspondences. In a nutshell, the Gnostic gospel is based on the
Cabalistic quest for liberation from the material world, with the assistance of
angels, of course.

Closely connected herewith is the doctrine that the pious are
enabled to ascend toward God even in this life, if they know how
to free themselves from the trammels that bind the soul to the body
(see Ascension). Thus were the first mystics enabled to disclose
the mysteries of the world beyond. According to Anz, l.c., and
Bousset, the central doctrine of Gnosticisma movement
closely connected with Jewish mysticismwas nothing else
than the attempt to liberate the soul and unite it with God. This
conception explains the great prominence of angels and spirits in
both the earlier and the later Jewish mysticism. Through the
employment of mysteries, incantations, names of angels, etc., the
mystic assures for himself the passage to God, and learns the holy
words and formulas with which he overpowers the evil spirits that
try to thwart and destroy him. Gaining thereby the mastery over
them, he naturally wishes to exercise it even while still on earth,
and tries to make the spirits serviceable to him. (Jewish
Encyclopedia)

Contemporary with Jesus Christ was Philo Judaeus (c. 30 BC-45 AD), a
Hellenized Jew of Alexandria who is credited with first allegorizing Scripture and
applying the mystical method to the Mosaic writings. Unrivaled in esoteric
knowledge, according to Blavatsky, Philo was a member of the elitist Alexandrian
society called the Therapeutae, also called an esoteric circle of illuminati of
wise men.

Therapeutae. (Gr.) or Therapeutes. A school of Esotericists,
which was an inner group within Alexandrian Judaism... They
were healers in the sense that some Christian and Mental
Scientists, members of the [Theosophical Society], are healers,
while they are at the same time good Theosophists and students of
the esoteric sciences. Philo Judeaus calls them servants of
god...an esoteric circle of illuminati, of wise men... They were
contemplative Hellenistic Jews. (Theosophical Glossary, p.329)

The Jewish Encyclopedia states concerning the Therapeutae, The members of
the sect seem to have branched off from the Essene brotherhood. Both of these
Gnostic orders were Jewish ascetics who practiced celibacy based on the Gnostic
belief that, since the material world is was created by an evil Demiurge, to
reproduce is to merely to populate and perpetuate Satans evil world system.
Professor Constantine Scouteris of the University of Athens describes the
differences between the strict celibacy of the Therapeutae and less rigid Essene
community:
In his De Vita Contemplativa the Alexandrian Philo makes an
extremely remarkable description of an ascetic community with
which he was familiar and which was settled not far from
Alexandria, namely above Lake Mareotis. Philo's intention in this
treatise is...to sketch the way of life of a specific monastic
community of Egyptian Jewish ascetics. At the very beginning of
his treatise, Philo notes the substantial contrast between the
Therapeutae and another Jewish ascetic sect, the Essenes. The
Essenes led a more practical and active life, while the Therapeutae
were dedicated to contemplative life. One could observe also other
differences between the two ascetic traditions. The Essenes were
exclusively male communities while women participated in the
communal gatherings of the Therapeutae communities. Although
the Essenes highly organized communal life involved great
frugality, there is no conclusive evidence that it denied the
lawfulness of marriage. The ascetic tradition of the Therapeutae,
on the other hand, insisted on absolute sexual abstinence. The
Therapeutae did not practice the Essene communistic way of life
but lived separately as anchorites. They practiced renunciation of
property, living a life of severe discipline, fasting and praying daily
according to an established horarium. (The Therapeutae of Philo)
After Philos death in 45 A.D., there arose in Alexandria the Society of Ormus,
which meant Sages of Light. The founder of this society was Ormesuis, a
Seraphic monk / Egyptian magus who was reportedly converted by St. Mark (a
likely story) and proceeded to blend the mystery teachings and rites of the
Egyptian priests with Christianity. According to Albert Mackeys Encyclopedia of
Freemasonry, this society merged with the Cabalist school of the Essenes and
other Jews, presumably the Therapeutae. The Essenes who belonged to the
Society of Ormus were part of the Essene Brotherhood based in Alexandria. The
insignia of the Society of Ormus was a red cross.

Their founder was a seraphic priest of Alexandria, a magus of
Egypt named Ormesius, or ORMUS, who with six of his
companions was converted in the year 96 by Saint Mark. He
purified the doctrine of the Egyptians according to the precepts of
Christianity, and founded the Society of ORMUS, that is to say,
the Sages of Light, to the members of which he gave a red cross as
a decoration. ABOUT THE SAME TIME THE ESSENES and
other Jews founded a school of SOLOMONIC WISDOM, to which
the disciples of ORMUS attached themselves. Then the society
was divided into various Orders known as the Conservators of
Mosaic Secrets, of Hermetic Secrets, etc. (45) (46).
(illumiGnosis, quoting Mackey II, p. 636)

Two centuries later, Philos method of allegorical interpretation of Scripture was
taught by Clement and Origen in their catechetical school of Alexandria where
they synthesized Neo-Platonism with Christianity to produce a Christianized
version of Gnosticism. These misnamed Church fathers were ascetics, whose
harsh treatment of the body is rejected by Scripture: Which things have indeed a
shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in
any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. (Col. 2:23) In his History of the
Christian Church, Philip Schaff described the basis of the false doctrine of
asceticism as spiritual elitism akin to Gnosticism:
The Alexandrian fathers furnished a theoretical basis for this
asceticism in the distinction of a lower and higher morality, which
corresponds to the Platonic or Pythagorean distinction between the
life according to nature and the life above nature or the practical
and contemplative life. It was previously suggested by Hermas
about the middle of the second century. Tertullian made a
corresponding opposite distinction of mortal and venial sins. Here
was a source of serious practical errors, and an encouragement
both to moral laxity and ascetic extravagance. The ascetics, and
afterwards the monks, formed or claimed to be a moral nobility, a
spiritual aristocracy, above the common Christian people; as the
clergy stood in a separate caste of inviolable dignity above the
laity, who were content with a lower grade of virtue. Clement of
Alexandria, otherwise remarkable for his elevated ethical views,
requires of the sage or gnostic, that he excel the plain Christian not
only by higher knowledge, but also by higher, emotionless virtue,
and stoical superiority to all bodily conditions; and he inclines to
regard the body, with Plato, as the grave and fetter of the soul.
How little he understood the Pauline doctrine of justification
by faith, may be inferred from a passage in the Stromata, where be
explains the word of Christ: Thy faith hath saved thee, as
referring, not to faith simply, but to the Jews only, who lived
according to the law; as if faith was something to be added to
the good works, instead of being the source and principle of the
holy life. Origen goes still further, and propounds quite distinctly
the catholic doctrine of two kinds of morality and piety, a lower for
all Christians, and a higher for saints or the select few. He includes
in the higher morality works of supererogation, i.e. works not
enjoined indeed in the gospel, yet recommended as counsels of
perfection, which were supposed to establish a peculiar merit and
secure a higher degree of blessedness. He who does only what is
required of all is an unprofitable servant; but he who does more,
who performs, for example, what Paul, in 1 Cor. 7:25, merely
recommends, concerning the single state, or like him, resigns his
just claim to temporal remuneration for spiritual service, is called a
good and faithful servant. Among these works were reckoned
martyrdom, voluntary poverty, and voluntary celibacy.
(Heretical and Catholic Asceticism)
Here we see that the false doctrine of the so-called Christian Gnostics
resembled the salvation by works taught by the Gnostic Jews at the Platonic
schools in Alexandria. It is worth noting here that the Gnostic heresiarchs were
Jews, a fact well-known to the true Church Fathers who were their
contemporaries. This huge piece of the puzzle has been missing in the sanitized
accounts of the Gnostics disseminated to the Gentile world, but is readily
available in the Jewish Encyclopedia:

It is a noteworthy fact that heads of gnostic schools and founders
of gnostic systems are designated as Jews by the Church Fathers.
Some derive all heresies, including those of gnosticism, from
Judaism ... It must furthermore be noted that Hebrew words and
names of God provide the skeleton for several gnostic systems...
This fact proves at least that the principal elements of gnosticism
were derived from Jewish speculation, while it does not preclude
the possibility of new wine having been poured into old bottles.
(Gnosticism)

Irenaeus, whose treatise, Against Heresies, was directed against the Gnostics,
indicted apostate Jews as the inventors of this heresy:

Arising among these men, Saturninus (who was of that Antioch
which is near Daphne) and Basilides laid hold of some favourable
opportunities, and promulgated different systems of doctrinethe
one in Syria, the other at Alexandria These men, moreover,
practise magic; and use images, incantations, invocations, and
every other kind of curious art They declare that they are no
longer Jews, and that they are not yet Christians; and that it is not
at all fitting to speak openly of their mysteries, but right to keep
them secret by preserving silence. (Against Heresies, Book I, Ch.
XXIV)

The Plot Against the Church, a history of Jewish infiltration of the Catholic
Church by Maurice Pinay (a pseudonym for a team of Catholic priests),
documents from various sources the foundation of Gnosticism to be the Jewish
Cabala, and the Alexandrian Gnostics to be Jewish Cabalists.

Matter, the renowned historian of Gnosticism reports to us that
the leading Jewish personages, the Alexandrian philosophers Filon
and Aristobulus, who were completely and utterly true to the
religion of their fathers, resolved to deck themselves out with the
remains of other systems and make a way clear to Jewry for
enormous conquests; both were also leaders of Gnosticism and
Cabbalists
The said author explains: that The Cabbala existed before
Gnosticism, is an opinion which the Christian writers little
understand, but which the scholars of Judaism admit with true
certainty; they also assert, that Gnosticism was not exactly a
falling away from Christianity but a compilation of systems, in
which several Christian elements were taken up
In his confirmation that Cabbalists founded Gnosticism, the
famous historian of Freemasonry, Ragon, reports that: The
Cabbala is the key of the secret sciences. The Gnostics emanated
from the Cabbalists. The Jewish Encyclopedia asserts that
Gnosticism had a Jewish character, before it was transformed
into the Christian
On the other hand, the Encyclopedia Judaica Castellana
alludes to the fact, that:
The original Gnosticism, both the Christian as well as the
Jewish, used Hebrew names in its system and that it even based its
opposition upon Biblical ideas, points to Jewish origin. It says in
addition that it influenced the later development of the Cabala
525:262-3

Perhaps the most influential of the arch heretics was Valentinus, whose Gnostic
school endured for over 600 years and whose belief system exists even today.
Valentinus, a Jew born in Egypt around 100 A.D., was educated in Alexandria
where he became a disciple of one Theudas who claimed to have been a disciple
of the apostle Paul who privately taught the hidden wisdom to his inner circle.
Typical of the early Gnostics, Valentinus also claimed to have had a vision of the
risen Christ, after which he commenced his career as a teacher at Alexandria (c.
120 AD). The truth about Valentinus conversion is more available in historical
accounts of the Romans brutal suppression of Jewish sedition in Egypt in 118
A.D.

Decimated by Roman troops deployed in the Jewish quarters,
with their urban and religious organisation shattered, remnants of
Egyptian Jewry metamorphosed into embryonic Christians (...
in the eyes of the local Greeks, Christianity was just another brand
of Judaism. Irshai.) Notable among them was a young man he
would have been about eighteen at the time of the insurrection
studying in the very city of Alexandria and witness to the carnage:
Valentinus. Another was Basilides. Following in the tradition of
synthesis and syncretism of long-standing in Alexandria (e.g. Philo
a generation earlier), these proto-Christian theorists, Valentinus
and Basilides competed against each other, had their own cult
followings, and produced their own gospels.

Valentinian Gnosticism attracted a large number of adherents in Egypt and Syria.
In 136 AD, Valentinus relocated to Rome where he founded another school and
rose to prominence throughout Europe. Maurice Pinay recounted the powerful
refutation of this adversary of the Christian faith by Irenaeus of Lyons (c. 130-
202):

The evidence of the Church Fathers completes the total
picture of proofsin order to show that Gnosticism was the work
of Jewry; for they name several of the leaders of the Gnostic
schools as Jews
Saint Ireneus, described Valentinus, a Jew from Alexandria,
as leader of the Gnostics
The most dangerous of allsecret sects for Christianity was
directed by the crypto-Jew Valentinus, who was the type of
classical member of the Fifth Column. For he was outwardly
active as true Christian and spread disintegration in Holy Church,
by spreading out his disastrous sect. At first he had the city of
Alexandria as chief bulwark, but towards the middle of the second
century he went to Rome with the intention of undermining
Christianity in the capital of the Empire itself. The Valentinians
seriously threatened to disintegrate Holy Church from within,
which finally in order to nullify the disastrous work of this false
Christian, a true Jew of the Fifth Column, cast him out of its
bosom
The Gnostics had mystery plays and initiations. Tertullian
assures us, that the sects of the Valentinians destroyed the Mystery
plays in Eleusis and made a sanctuary of prostitution out of them.
And we must not forget, that Valentine, the false Christ and
crypto-Jew from Alexandria was revealed by the Saint Irenaeus as
leader of the Gnostics, whose sects according to several people
were directed by one and the same power
That great leader, who appeared in the Church, in order to
combat Gnosticism and to triumph over it, was in fact Saint
Irenaeus, who thoroughly studied its disastrous sects and their dark
teachings and mercilessly fought them in word and deed.
Simultaneously he attacked the Jews, whom he described as
leaders of this disintegrating underground movement, [28]
whose strongest and most dangerous sect for Christianity was that
of the Valentinians, which was led by Valentinius, behind whose
false Christianity Saint Ireneus discovered the Jewish identity.
Thanks to the manly and ceaseless labour of Saint Ireneus,
Holy Church was successful in triumphing over the Gnosis, which
for rising Christianity was a more threatening internal danger than
the grave external intrigues which were then represented through
the frontal attacks of the synagogue and its intrigues Naturally,
the existence of a devout and very combative clergy, to whom
indulgence was disguised with the cloak of peaceful coexistence or
of diplomacy was not known, had the effect that Holy Church
emerged victorious from this terrible struggle, in which it
completely overcame its foes: Jewry, Jewish Gnosticism and
Roman paganism
[28] His work Adversus Haereses is especially important.
(The Plot Against the Church, pp. 262-8)

In 143 A.D. Valentinus was a candidate for the office of bishop of Rome, but
upon being passed over for that position he left the Christian community. About
the time of Valentinus, another arch heretic, Marcion, arrived in Rome. Irenaeus
wrote of his official rejection by the Church at Rome, which was under the
oversight of bishops (not popes):

For Valentinus came to Rome in the time of Hyginus, flourished
under Pius, and remained until Anicetus. Cerdon, too, Marcion's
predecessor, himself arrived in the time of Hyginus, who was the
ninth bishop. Coming frequently into the Church, and making
public confession, he thus remained, one time teaching in secret,
and then again making public confession; but at last, having been
denounced for corrupt teaching, he was excommunicated from the
assembly of the brethren.

After Valentinus death, his disciples developed his ideas into a system which
they spread throughout the Roman Empire. In his work, Valentinus: A Gnostic
for All Seasons, Stephan A. Hoeller theorizes as to the course of Christendom,
had Valentinus become Pope:

It is certainly a question of some interest what the course of
Christian theology might have been had Valentinus been elected to
the office of bishop of Rome. His hermeneutic vision combined
with his superb sense of the mythical would have probably resulted
in a general flowering of the Gnosis within the very fabric of the
Church of Rome, and might have created an authoritative paradigm
of Gnostic Christianity that could not have been easily exorcised
for centuries, if at all. (The Almost Pope)

THE JUDAIZERS

During the first century, the apostle Paul had valiantly contended against the
Judaizing heresy, giving no place to the unbelieving Jews who stalked him from
city to city agitating the crowds as he preached the Gospel. Serving the Lord
with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me
by the lying in wait of the Jews... (Acts 20:19)

The Interlinear Greek-English New Testament (Textus Receptus) translates the
last phrase of verse 19 plots of the Jews. Verse 3 of this chapter mentions that
the Jews who were involved in the uproar at Ephesus continued to plot against the
disciples. And having continued three months, having been made against them a
plot by the Jews, being about to sail into Syria, arose a purpose to return through
Macedonia. The word plot suggests that the continual attacks on the Gospel
were planned, as in a conspiracy: Plot, n. [Abbrev. from complot.] 1. Any
scheme, stratagem, secret design, or plan, of a complicated nature, adapted to the
accomplishment of some purpose, usually a treacherous and mischievous one; a
conspiracy; an intrigue...cabal (Websters)

It seems that Jews were also infiltrating the churches, bringing their false
doctrines with them; as Paul stated, these Jews were false brethren unawares
brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ
Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage. (Gal. 2:4) It is likely Paul
anticipated that the Judaizing heresy, which had appeared in Corinth and Galatia,
would eventually manifest in other churches, and especially in Rome, the center
and seat of earthly power and government. For this reason, the doctrinal position
of the Christian community in Rome, whose power and influence was destined
only to increase, would carry great weight in deciding the Judaizing
controversy. This may explain why Pauls epistle to the Romans was a defense of
the fundamental doctrine of the righteousness which is of faith as contrasted
with the Jewish concept of righteousness which is of the law.

For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not
according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of Gods
righteousness, and going about to establish their own
righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the
righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for
righteousness to every one that believeth... That if thou shalt
confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine
heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
(Rom.10:2-4,9)

Tragically, before his departure from Ephesus to Jerusalem, whence he would
appeal to appear before Caesar in Rome, Paul prophesied that the Christian
churches would be infiltrated by heretics, chief among whom were the Judaizers.

For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter
in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall
men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after
them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three
years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
(Acts 20:20)

Before departing on his final journey to Rome, Paul also commended the
believers to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you
an inheritance among all them which are sanctified (v.30) as opposed to the
works of the law by which no flesh is justified. (Gal.2:16)

JEWISH COMMUNITY IN ROME

During the time of Christ and the early Church period there was a sizeable Jewish
community in Rome, estimated at 40,000 Jews. Josephus mentioned a lawsuit that
involved 8,000 Jews in Rome during the reign of Caesar Augustus (44 BC-
14.AD), presumably adult men each with a family of at least four or five
members. (Jewish Antiquities, Vol. II, p. 80) The number of Jews in Rome
increased considerably after the mass deportation of captives from Jerusalem
following its destruction in 70 A.D.

There was also a thriving Jewish community in the area which became the
Vatican. According to The Vatican & Rome as elements of apocalyptic
discourse: The origins of the Citt del Vaticano are as an unpleasant
neighborhood outside the city walls populated by Jews and beginning in the first
century by (Jewish) Christians and still later by the persecuted Gentile converts to
the Christian sect. The Latin word Vatican means divining serpent (see
Papal Crest Dragon):

The word Vatican literally means Divining Serpent, and is
derived from Vatis=Diviner and Can=Serpent. Vatican City and St.
Peters Basilica were built on the ancient pagan site called in Latin
vaticanus mons or vaticanus collis, which means hill or mountain
of prophecy. Coins minted in Vatican City often bear the
inscription CITT DEL VATICANO, which means City of
Prophecy. (The Wine of Babylon)

The Jewish community in Rome dates at least as far back as the Maccabees, who
had cordial relations with Rome and received pledges of Roman friendship and
protection. (See: Jews become allies of Rome) Jewish culture prospered in Rome
during the early centuries of first millennium, even to the extent that Jews held
government positions and received favored treatment from the Caesars. It was not
until Constantine the Great, who reigned as emperor from 306 to 336, that Jews
were proscribed from holding state offices, owning slaves or testifying in court
against Christians, among other restrictions. The Jewish Virtual Library reveals
the influence and status of the Jewish community in Rome.

The Jewish community in Rome is known to be the oldest
Jewish community in Europe and also one of the oldest continuous
Jewish settlements in the world, dating back to 161 B.C.E. when
Jason ben Eleazar and Eupolemus ben Johanan came as envoys of
Judah Maccabee. Other delegations were sent by the Hasmonean
rulers in 150 and 139 B.C.E. After the Romans invaded Judea in
63 B.C.E., Jewish prisoners of war were brought to Rome as
slaves, Jewish delegates came to Rome on diplomatic missions and
Jewish merchants traveled to Rome seeking business opportunities.
Many of those who visited Rome stayed and the Jewish population
began to grow.
While the treatment of Jews by the Romans in Palestine was
often harsh, relations with the rulers in Rome were generally much
better. Julius Caesar, for example, was known to be a friend of
the Jews; he allowed them to settle anywhere in the Roman
Empire. According to historians, when Caesar was assassinated by
Brutus in 44 B.C.E., Roman Jews spent day and night at Caesars
tomb, weeping over his death. His successor, Augustus, also acted
favorably toward the Jews and even scheduled his grain
distribution so that it would not interfere with the Jewish Sabbath.
Two synagogues were founded by slaves who had been freed by
Augustus (14 C.E.) and by Agrippa (12 B.C.E.)...
From the second half of the first century C.E., the Roman
Jewish community became firmly established. A majority of the
community were shopkeepers, craftsman and peddlers, but other
Jews became poets, physicians and actors... Evidence has been
found that twelve synagogues were functioning during this
period.

Always industrious and enterprising, the Jews used Rome as a base to gain
influence throughout Europe,. Their success was largely achieved through
finance, and especially usury, the charging of excessive interest on loans by
means of which wealthy Jews would eventually enslave the European
monarchies. As the headquarters of the empire, Rome was strategic to the
European operations of the Jewish elite. The scheme employed in the takeover of
Rome is revealed by the two Jewish converts to Roman Catholicism who
became priests:

Usury for Power...
The human causes of [the persecution of Jews], unique in
history, are witnessed by the Jews insatiable appetite for turning
to usury to gain power through betrayal in order to dominate, and
whenever possible, to take over and overthrow the State.
In every country, this immutable law of Hebrew prosperity in
every country is always to the detriment of the well being and
liberty of the inhabitants. Many years before Rome fell into the
claws of history, the famous Lemann brothers, who converted from
Judaism and became priests of the Catholic Church, in one of their
works, which merits meditation, wrote:
O Israelites of Rome, we understand the attitude of our people.
If you are conceded the right of possession which you invoke, we
wager that, within thirty to fifty years from now, Rome will be in
your hands. (ff. Rome et les juives. Rome and the Jews)
And so the prophecy came to pass. The city of Rome fell
quickly into the abyss, and was economically and materially
subjugated to the Jews, as were all of the major cities of the great
nations of Europe. (La Civilta Cattolica)

It was into this prospering Jewish community at Rome that the Gospel of Jesus
Christ made an entrance, for the it is recorded in Acts 18:2 that, while in Corinth,
Paul found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy,
with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart
from Rome:) and came unto them. A Commentary on Romans by James R.
Edwards alludes to the tensions between the Jews and Gentile converts in Rome
who, at the council of Jerusalem, as recorded in Acts 15, had been officially
released from the Mosaic Law.

The Edict of Claudius. Claudius, who ruled Rome from AD 41
to 54, found the Pax Romana threatened by Jewish disturbances
from Rome to distant Egypt. In his first year of office he imposed a
restraining order on the Jews, forbidding them to meet together in
accordance with their ancestral way of life. Eight years later, in
AD 49, he cracked down on foreigners in general. The Roman
historian Suetonius says, Since the Jews constantly made
disturbances at the instigation of Chrestus, (Claudius) expelled
them from Rome....
The expulsion of Jews from Rome dramatically changed the
constituency of the fledgling Christian communities there. A
movement that from its inception had identified more or less with
Judaism was now confronted with a predominantly, if not
exclusively, Gentile Christian membership. Freed from the
influence of scrupulous Jewish Christians, particularly in dietary
matters, the Gentile Christian communities would have grown
numerically stronger. But more importantly, they more than likely
developed a distinctly antinomian consciousness during the
absence of their Jewish Christian counterparts. How long this
situation lasted we cannot say, but the five years between the
proclamation of the edict in AD 49 and Claudius death in AD 54
is a reasonable guess.
This changed when Claudius died and the edict lapsed. It is not
difficult to imagine the difficulties which must have ensued when
Jewish Christians returning from exile tried to reestablish
themselves in Christian communities that had since matured in
Gentile character, especially regarding laxness toward the Torah.
Pauls greetings at the end of Romans seem directed to several
different (house) churches (see 16:5,14,15), the existence of which
may be evidence of tensions between Jewish and Gentile
Christians. If our dating of Romans is correct - and the date cannot
have been more than a year or two away from AD 57 - then
Romans was written only a few years after the onset of this
social and religious maelstrom. (pp. 8-11)

A maelstrom indeed ensued when Claudius was succeeded by the Emperor Nero
who, in A.D. 64, launched the fierce persecutions of Christians that would
continue for two hundred and fifty years. A World History website ascribes the
Great Fire of Rome to Jewish fanatics, who shifted the blame to the Christians:

An official investigation concluded that the fire had been started
by Jewish fanatics. This put the Jewish community in Rome in
danger, and Jewish leaders in Rome may have tried to avert this
danger by describing to authorities the difference between
themselves and the Christians. The leaders of Jews in Rome could
reach the emperor, Nero, through his new wife, Sabina Poppaea.
Nero learned of the separate identity of those Jews who were
followers of Jesus, and he put blame on them for the fire.

It was Constantine the Great whose Edict of Milan in 313 ended the persecution
of Christians and legalized the worship of Jesus Christ. At the same time,
Constantine also obstructed Jewish ascendancy in the Roman Empire.

The Jewish position in Rome began to deteriorate during the
reign of Constantine the Great (306-336), who enacted laws
limiting the rights of Jews as citizens... Some of the relevant
decrees in these codes include prohibitions against making
proselytes, intermarriage, owning slaves (slave labor was very
common and this prohibition severely restricted the economic life
of the Jews), holding any esteemed position in the Roman state,
building new synagogues and testifying against Orthodox
Christians in court. (Jewish Virtual Library)

Was there an inverse relationship between the two traditions Judaism and
Christianity so that the expanding influence of one negatively affected the
numerical growth of the other? And can it be that Constantines conversion and
outlawing of Jewish operations against the Christians is the reason this Roman
emperor consistently receives bad press from the intellectual community?

It is difficult to resist the suspicion that Jews, certain of whom held positions in
the Roman state before Constantine, may have been behind the persecution of
Christians, accusing them to the Roman emperors as the Jews accused Paul and
Silas to the rulers of Thessalonica, ...these all do contrary to the decrees of
Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus. (Acts 17:7) The issue of
allegiance to Jesus Christ as God in preference to Caesar also recalls the charge
which the chief priests and scribes leveled against Jesus Himself when He stood
before Pilate: We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give
tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King. (Luke 23:2)

Having failed to eradicate Christianity by way of extermination, is it possible the
Jews then tried to destroy the Christian faith by other means? In very fact, this
was the case, according to Maurice Pinay:

Gnosisfor rising Christianity was a more threatening internal
danger than the grave external intrigues which were then
represented through the frontal attacks of the synagogue and its
intrigues. The latter attained, as we have already observed, that the
whole power of the Roman Empire was applied with its terrible
persecutions, as a result of which there were so many martyrs for
Christianity. These facts prove, that from its first beginnings
onwards the activity of the Jewish Fifth Column which had
penetrated into its interior, was far more dangerous than that of
external foes. (The Plot Against the Church, p. 268)

Although Constantine restricted Jewish power and influence, the last of his direct
descendants to become Roman Emperor favored the Jewish religion to the extent
that he made plans to rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple of Solomon. The deeds
of Julian the Apostate are favorably recorded by Jewish historians such as H.
Graetz, whose History of the Jews was cited by Pinay:

In the year 360 Julian, a cousin of Constantine, was proclaimed
Roman Emperor by the army. Constantine, who had prepared for
battle against him, died on the way; this made easier the final
victory for Julian and his proclamation as Emperor of the Orient
and Occident. The policy of Julian had three principle aims: I. To
renew the Pagan belief and to again declare it a state religion of the
Empire, so that Rome which according to his view had declined
through Christianity, might return to its old glory. II. To destroy
Christianity. III. To concede to Jewry its old positions, from which
it had been expelled by Constantine and his sons; even the
rebuilding of the Temple of Solomon was to be arranged
The famous Jewish historian says of Julian:...that Julian paid
great admiration to the Jewish religion and confirms that the
period of government by Julian...was a time of highest fortune for
the Jews of the Roman Empire...
Graetz likewise establishes that Julian called the leader of
Jewry in the Empire, the patriarch Hillel, literally his respected
friend, and promised him in a personal letter to make an end of the
misdeeds committed by the Christian Emperors against the Jews.
Further, Julian made all necessary preparations in order to begin
the rebuilding of the Temple of Jerusalem. He addressed a letter to
all Jewish congregations of the Empire, in which he spoke in
friendly way of the leader of Jewry in the Empire, the Patriarch
Julos (Hillel), as his brother. He promised the abolition of the high
taxes laid upon the Israelites by the Christians, guaranteed that in
the future none should accuse them of blasphemy, promised
freedom and security and promised to have Jerusalem rebuilt at his
expense, as soon as he returned victorious from the Persian war.
For the rebuilding of the Temple of Jerusalem Julian
commissioned his best friend, Alypius of Antioch, to whom he
gave instructions to spare no expense, and commanded the
governors of Palestine and Syria, to assist with everything
necessary... (pp. 285-6)

The death of Julian in 363 A.D. curtailed plans for rebuilding Solomons Temple;
however, the Jewish Virtual Library boasts of a Hebrew revival in Rome in the
centuries which followed:

During this period there was a revival of Hebrew studies in Rome,
centered around the local yeshiva, Metivta de Mata Romi. A
number of well-known scholars, Rabbi Kalonymus b. Moses and
Rabbi Jacob Gaon and Rabbi Nathan b. Jehil (who wrote a great
talmudic dictionary, the Arukh), contributed to Jewish learning and
development. Roman Jewish traditions followed those practiced in
the Land of Israel and the liturgical customs started in Rome
spread throughout Italy and the rest of the world.

ROMAN CATHOLICISM

Did the abovementioned Jewish liturgical customs which started in Rome
somehow find their way into the Church at Rome? Were they little by little
incorporated into its worship, which gradually developed into the Roman Catholic
Mass? It may come as a surprise to many Catholics that the Catholic
Encyclopedia officially defines the Catholic liturgy as a carryover from the
Mosaic Law:

...the word liturgy...is used for the public service of the
temple...the function of the priests, the ritual service of the
temple... So in Christian use liturgy meant the public official
service of the Church, that corresponded to the official service of
the Temple in the Old Law.

After which we find a startling admission, viz., that the Mass was a Christianized
synagogue service conducted by learned elders:

The Eucharist was always celebrated at the end of a service of
lessons, psalms, prayers, and preaching, which was itself merely a
continuation of the service of the synagogue. So we have
everywhere this double function; first a synagogue service
Christianized, in which the holy books were read, psalms were
sung, prayers said by the bishop in the name of all (the people
answering Amen in Hebrew, as had their Jewish forefathers), and
homilies, explanations of what had been read, were made by the
bishop or priests, just as they had been made in the synagogues
by the learned men and elders (e. g., Luke, iv, 16-27)... The
likeness between the prayers of thanksgiving (ix-x) and the Jewish
forms for blessing bread and wine on the Sabbath (given in the
Berakoth treatise of the Talmud; cf. Sabatier, La Didache,
Paris, 1885, p. 99) points obviously to derivation from them.

Little wonder that one Jewish convert to Roman Catholicism made the astounding
statement that entering the Catholic Church was not a conversion experience for
him, but rather a continuation of Judaism. Roy Schoeman, the author of Salvation
is from the Jews, confirms as well that the Mass is based on the Jewish ceremonial
worship and that Catholic theology is based on the Old Testament!

As a Jew coming to the Catholic Church, it was natural for me
to find the relationship between Judaism and the Catholic Church
among the most interesting things in the world. It was obvious to
me that for a Jew to enter the Catholic Church wasnt a matter
of conversion at all, but was rather simply coming into the
fullness of Judaism into the form that Judaism took after the
coming of the Jewish Messiah.
Although Catholics are aware of this in principle, they often
dont think of the Catholic Church as the continuation of
Judaism after the Messiah... Its everywhere you look. Its
obviously in the Sacrifice of the Mass and the way the Mass is
prefigured in Jewish ceremonial worship. Its in the role that
the Old Testament, Jewish Scripture have in Catholic theology
and the structure of the Catholic Faith. [Seattle Catholic]

A listing of parallels between Roman Catholicism and Judaism, which have
analogues in the Eastern Orthodox Church as well, presented us with the startling
prospect that Roman Catholicism may have been a Judaized form of Christianity
from its inception. In the list of traditions below, links to the Catholic
Encyclopedia show that the Roman Catholic Church justifies most of its practices
by appealing to the Old Testament. Even in cases where the New Testament is
cited as justification, these practices are not required under the New Covenant but
have their basis in Judaism.

Priesthood (cf. Levitical priesthood/mediators between God and men)
Pope (cf. Jewish High Priest)
College of Cardinals (70) (cf. seventy elders of Moses/Deut.17:8)
Confession of sins to priest for forgiveness (cf. Lev.5:5)
Daily sacrifice of the Mass (cf. Daily burnt offering / Heb.10:11)
Altars for sacrifices
Altar vessels of gold and silver
Vestments for priests
Cardinals skullcap (cf. Jewish yarmulke)
Offertory (cf. Offerings)
Church buildings for worship (cf. Temple)
Liturgy (cf. service of the Temple)
Sunday obligation (cf. Sabbath observance)
Ecclesiastical Feasts (cf. Jewish feasts)
Scapular / Hairshirt (cf. Sackcloth)
Works-based salvation (cf. Mosaic Law)
Sacrament of infant baptism (cf. Rite of Circumcision / Talmud)
Wafer-only Communion (cf. Manna/Shew Bread)
Sacrament of Confirmation (cf. Jewish Bar/Bat Mitzvah)
Burning of candles and incense (cf. Exodus 30)
Holy water font (cf. The Laver / Exodus 40)
No salvation outside the (Catholic) Church (Gentiles must convert to Judaism to
be saved)

The following Roman Catholic traditions were not part of the Mosaic Law but
were adopted by the Israelites in their apostasy:

Traditions of men (Mark 7:6-13)
Vain repetitions (Lip service (Isa.29:13)
Veneration of saints (Idolatry/pagan gods)
Worship of Mary as Mother of God (Jews worshipped Queen of Heaven / Jer. 44)
Statues/images (images on the walls of Solomons Temple) (Ezek 8:10)
Demotion of Jesus to Co-Redeemer (cf. Jews denial of Jesus as Messiah)
Preoccupation with Christs death rather than resurrection (Jews denial of Jesus
resurrection)

The above is only a partial catalog of Jewish traditions found in Roman
Catholicism. The sacerdotal (priesthood) and daily sacrificial systems alone
strongly implicate the Roman Catholic Church as, not only a front for apostate
Judaism, but as a vehicle for converting Christians, without their knowledge, to
the very religious system that rejected Jesus Christ. One commentary compares
the Roman Catholic teaching on salvation to that preached in Judaism:

The Catholic perspective on salvation is largely judaized
Christianity. In the days of the Apostles, many Jewish Christians
believed that Christians had to follow all the requirements of the
Mosaic Law, e.g., circumcision, the system of offerings, going to a
priest to have sins forgiven, making sacrifices as atonement for
sins, etc. A system that requires some type of priest to act as an
intercessor between the layperson and God is known as a
sacerdotal system (from the Latin word sacerdote, meaning
priest.)

In view of the striking parallels between Roman Catholicism and Judaism, it
becomes apparent that Roman Catholicism represents, to a remarkable degree, the
triumph of the Judaizers. How did it happen that the doctrines, rites and traditions
of Judaism crept into the Church at Rome?

MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT

CATHOLIC OR JEWISH?

PART II


CRYPTO-JEWRY

If Judaizers played a major role in the formation and establishment of the Roman
Catholic Church, is it possible that Roman Catholicism was a Jewish project from
the beginning? There is, in fact, a long and fascinating history of Jewish
infiltration of the Roman Catholic Church which has been nonetheless, and by
clever design, perceived as a Gentile institution. If Roman Catholicism was a
project of Cabalist Jews for the purpose of subverting Christianity, it is
conceivable that this Judaized Church has functioned for nearly two millennia as a
covert branch of Judaism, whose handlers gradually and imperceptibly shifted
Western Christendom to more advanced stages of apostasy than was possible
during the vigilant period of the early Church when ecumenical councils
convened to combat heresy, rather than to embrace it. At the present time it can be
safely stated that the Roman Catholic Church is a merely a front for Judeo-
Freemasonry to draw apostate Christendom into the messianic kingdom of the
Antichrist.

There is also evidence that many of the pseudo-Christian religions were founded
by Kabalist Jews. The founder of Mormonism, another Judaized version of
Christianity, was Joseph Smith, who was a practitioner of Kabala. Smith
surrounded himself with 12 apostles of which his closest colleagues were Jewish
Cabalists, Orson Hyde and Alexander Neibaur. Lance Owens wrote of Neibaurs
intimate knowledge of the Cabala and his strong influence on Joseph Smith:
That Neibaur brought a knowledge of Kabbalah
to Nauvoo has been mentioned in several studies of
the period. For instance, Newel and Avery note in
their biography of Emma Smith, Through
Alexander Neibaur, Joseph Smith had access to
ancient Jewish rites called cabalism... That he not
only knew something of Kabbalah, but apparently
possessed a collection of original Jewish
Kabbalistic works in Nauvoo, is however
documented in material almost totally overlooked
by Mormon historians.
Can anyone familiar with the history and
personality of Joseph Smith--the prophet who
restored the secret knowledge and rituals conveyed
to Adam, translated the works of Abraham, Enoch,
and Moses, and retranslated Genesis--question that
he would have been interested in the original
version of this Jewish occult tradition? And here, in
Neibaur, was a man who could share a version of
that knowledge with him. Whatever the reasons for
the similarities, it should be remembered that the
Hermetic-Kabbalistic world view parallels Josephs
vision of God in many particulars. Not only might
Joseph have been interested in this material, but he
would have noted how similar this sacred, secret
tradition was with his own restoration of ancient
truth. And perhaps Neibaur, on a religious quest--
from Judaism and Kabbalah, Europe and England,
to Christianity and Mormonism and a new home in
Nauvoo--saw or even amplified that intrinsic
sympathy in his explications of the tradition for
Joseph.

Certainly the first text Joseph Smith would have
confronted was the Zohar, the great heart of the
Kabbalah. This is one of the works Neibaur cited
repeatedly in his article and, as the central text of
Kabbalah, is the key book any individual with
Kabbalistic interests would have preserved in his
library. Familiarity with the Zohar was a given for a
Kabbalist, particularly one with knowledge of
works as divergent as those cited by Neibaur, all of
which expounded in some degree upon themes in
the Zohar. If Neibaur had read to Joseph from any
single text, or explained Kabbalistic concepts
contained in a principal book, the Zohar would have
been the book with which to start. This might
explain why in 1844 Smith, in what may be his
single greatest discourse and in the most important
public statement of his theosophical vision,
apparently quotes almost word for word from the
first section of the Zohar. (Joseph Smith and
Kabbalah: The Occult Connection)
Smiths other Jewish apostle and close colleague,
Orson Hyde, made a trip to Jerusalem in the 1830s to
dedicate the restoration of Israel to the Jews.
According to Ivan P. Barretts Joseph Smith and the
Restoration:
In 1823 only a handful of Jews
lived in Palestine, and those who did
had no rights under Turkish rule. The
roots of Zionism in the Jewish
communities of Europe were barely
stirring and the thought of Jews
gathering at all was virtually unheard of
let alone a return of the Jews to the
Land of Palestine. But from that very
time on, the spiritual stirrings of the
Zionist movement began in
earnest. God was about to give to
special keys to modern prophets as he
had done with ancient ones; keys to
move the nations.
In 1831, only a year after the
Church was organized by Joseph Smith,
another young man with a prophetic call
by the name of Orson Hyde, age 26, of
Jewish ancestry, was confirmed a
member of the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints by the Prophet
Joseph. When Joseph laid his hands on
the head of Orson Hyde he gave him a
unique blessing where in he prophesied
the following:
In due time thou shalt go to
Jerusalem, the land of they fathers, and
be a watchman unto the House of Israel;
and by thy hands shall the Most High do
a great work, which shall prepare the
way and greatly facilitate the gathering
of that People. (Barrett, p. 469)

Charles Taze Russell was the founder of Zions Watch Tower magazine in 1879,
which evolved into the Jehovahs Witnesses. Russell was strongly influenced by
the teachings of Seventh Day Adventism, an anti-Trinitarian cult of the Arian
school which observes the Jewish Sabbath. According to the Watchtower
Observer, Russell taught that the Jewish people and nation have a leading role in
the Divine Plan for man, and accordingly during the year 1910 he spoke to vast
Jewish audiences, comforting them according to the Scripture, Isa. 40:2 He
encouraged them not to join the various churches of today but to wait for the
fulfilment of the many Old Testament promises that they would be blessed as a
nation. While they were yet a scattered and dispersed people, he said, upon the
basis of these promises, that they would be regathered to Palestine and established
as an independent nation. Russell was regarded as a Christian Zionist, often
invited to speak before orthodox Jewish groups In addition, his views on
Zionism have been hailed by the likes of former Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin
Netanyahu, and former United Nations Ambassador, Jeane Kirkpatrick. (CTR:
The Truth) Russell also promoted the Rothschild-funded ecumenical agenda in
the Jehovahs Witnesses Watch Tower magazine:
J. P. Morgan, the Rothschilds representative in the United States,
set up a trust fund to unite various Christian denominations.
[Charles Taze] Russell...praises this in his January 1, 1911 [Watch
Tower]... Mr. Morgans well-known business capacity, exhibited
in connection with financial trusts, encourages many to believe that
he will accomplish the desired end in connection with the
movement. More and more all denominations are craving a
religious trust or federation and are becoming more and more
willing to sacrifice doctrines and principles formerly held dear in
order to accomplish the federation. - 215:538
Not content with the destruction of Christianity, the Cabalists have also been busy
extinguishing Torah Judaism. In his 1957 book on the Zionist Movement, titled
The Transformation, I. Domb describes the shattering situation of contemporary
Judaism in which ninety-five percent of the Jewish people have been removed
from the way of the Torah. There has been a spread of heresy in an unparalleled
magnitude, in order to avoid any challenge of the process, or perhaps what might
be called the suppression of the faith, lest the process be disturbed. Domb
continues to describe the near extinction of Torah Judaism among world Jewry, a
fact of which few Gentiles are aware:

Some have been completely removed, others still stand on the
borderline, and there are indeed others who from every motive of
hatred and malice, seek to destroy all that their fathers had
cherished. Even the small minority, of those who have remained
loyal to the observance of the Torah in practice, has been disturbed
in its way of thought, attacked by a flood of distortion,
demoralized, bewildered by errors, falsehoods and slanders.
The very small section that remains untouched by all these
tendencies is not only small but helpless. It lacks the means of
publicity which are required to defend the genuine Torah point of
view with clear statement widely distributed. The result is that the
Jewish reader is deprived of the opportunity of finding out how the
Torah demands that he should regard his plight and his obligations.
He is thus allowed to fall a victim to opposing claims. Particularly
is this true of those Jews whose reading is more or less confined to
the English language. To their ears fail to find their way even the
feeble protests that are made from time to time, from somewhere
on the other side. (The Transformation, Preface)

It is understandable how Cabalist Jews could subvert the faith of their Jewish
brethren, but how is such deception on a grand scale possible? Jews who
apostatized from the God of Israel and the Torah into pagan worship of strange
gods set about to destroy the monotheistic faiths of Torah Judaism, Christianity
and even Islam, about which more will be said later. These Cabalists were guided
by evil spirits and equipped with supernatural powers, by means of the magical
arts they studied, to infiltrate and take control of the Gentile institutions. This
modus operandi was described by Edith Starr Miller:

The obligations and rules of the rite for the Jewish masses are
contained in the Talmud and Schulchan Aruk, but the esoteric
teachings of the higher initiates are to be found in the Cabala.
Therein are contained the mysterious rites for evocations, the
indications and keys to practices for conjuration of supernatural
forces, the science of numbers, astrology, etc.
The practical application of the Cabalist knowledge is
manifested in the use made of it, through the ages, by Jews to gain
influence both in the higher spheres of Gentile life and over the
masses. Sovereigns and Popes, both, usually had one or more Jews
as astrologers and advisers, and they frequently gave Jews control
over their very life by employing them as physicians. Political
power was thus gained by Jews in almost every Gentile country
alongside with financial power, since Jewish court-bankers
manipulated state funds and taxes.
Through the ages also, can be followed the spreading power of
the sect, and no more awful example of the devastating and
destructive power of the penetration of a secret subversive society
has ever been witnessed.
With its Bnai Brith Supreme Council as the directing head,
the sect with its members swarming among all nations has become
the sovereign power ruling in the councils of all nations and
governing their political, economic, religious and educational
policies. (Occult Theocrasy, p. 76)

During the Middle Ages, the infiltration and conquest of Christendom was
achieved by two methods. The Inquisition, which started in Spain in 1478, forced
multitudes of Jews to renounce Judaism and to embrace Catholicism; these
converts were called Conversos. Conversos typically went through the motions
of the Roman Catholic religion, but remained Jews inwardly and practiced their
Jewish rites in the privacy of their homes.

Other Jews, called Marranos (swine), feigned conversion to Christianity and
practiced Roman Catholicism outwardly, while practicing Judaism, or Cabalism,
privately. A number of Marranos took positions in the clergy. The motive of
Conversos was self-preservation; the Marranos, destruction of the Church and all
things Christian. The result of these parallel operations was the Jewish occupation
of the Roman Catholic Church and its transformation into MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. The King James translation of Revelation
17 describes MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT as the great whore and
that great city which sits upon seven mountains (v.9).

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven
vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will
shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon
many waters... So he carried me away in the spirit into the
wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast,
full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and
decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden
cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her
fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF
HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw
the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the
blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with
great admiration... The seven heads are seven mountains, on
which the woman sitteth... And he saith unto me, The waters which
thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes,
and nations, and tongues... And the woman which thou sawest is
that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

In this passage, the word mystery identifies this entity as a mystery religion.
Babylon the Great locates the origin of this mystery religion in ancient
Babylon. That great city which sits upon seven mountains pinpoints the
location of the Great Whore in Rome, which is known historically as the City on
Seven Hills. The only religious system that presently answers to MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT as described in Revelation 17 is the Roman Catholic
Church.

Since the Reformation, volumes have been written concerning the enormities of
the Catholic Church the centuries of the Inquisition with its tortures and
bloodshed, wars of conquest and genocide, the promulgation of false doctrines
and pagan traditions, sexual perversion and abuse within the clergy, not to
mention the vast wealth of the Vatican, which has extorted money from widows
and orphans to subsidize the lavish lifestyles of the popes and their papal courts,
all of whom live like royalty whilst multitudes of their subjects dwell in abject
poverty. Yet by far the worst abuse of the Roman Whore has been its distortion of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ and withholding the Word of God from peoples, and
multitudes, and nations many of whom will therefore spend eternity in Hell.

The scandalous deeds of the Great Whore are well-documented facts of history.
What is less well understood is how the Babylonian mysteries found their way
into the Church of Rome, thereby meriting Gods assessment as MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT. This report hopes to demonstrate that the real history
of the Roman Catholic Church differs appreciably from the official fabrication
circulated by the ubiquitous propaganda mills, which are under the direction of
the Jewish power elite. As I. Domb wrote, Those who possess the financial
means can through their effective disposal, almost completely predominate over
everything and everybody.

Evidence of infiltration of the Roman Catholic Church by great masses of
European Jewry is found in numerous independent sources, of which we shall
consider a few starting with portions of The Plot Against the Church. Typical of
Catholic anti-Judaism, the authors fulminate against Jewish infiltration of the
Church, but seem blind to the fact that Holy Catholic Church was a Judaized
form of Christianity from its inception.

The lasting victory of the Jewish-Freemasonic and Jewish
Communist revolution since the end of the 18th century up to our
days isto be attributed to that neither the Holy Catholic Church
nor the separated Churches have fought effectively against the
Jewish Fifth Column, which has smuggled itself into their
bosom.
This Fifth column is formed by the descendants of the Jews
who in earlier centuries were converted to Christianity and
seemingly held in enthusiastic manner to the religion of Christ,
while in secret they preserved their Jewish belief and carried out
clandestinely the Jewish rites and ceremonies. For this purpose
they organized themselves into communities and secret
synagogues, which were active centuries-long in secret. These
apparent Christians, but secret Jews, began centuries ago to
infiltrate the Christian society, in order to attempt to control it from
within. For this reason they sowed false doctrine and differences of
opinion and even attempted to gain control of the clergy in the
different churches of Christ. With all this, they applied the cunning
of introducing crypto-Jewish Christians into the seminaries of the
priesthood, who could gain admission into the honorary offices in
the Holy Catholic Church and then into the dissident churches,
upon whose division these secret Jews had so much influence.
(The Plot Against the Church, pp. 235-36)

The priests have alluded to a dialectical operation conducted by crypto-Jews, who
sowed false doctrine and differences of opinion in the Church by introducing
heresies. These movements were often highly Judaized, Gnostic movements.

In the Middle Ages, the Popes and Councils were successful in
destroying the Jewish revolutionary movements which appeared
within Christianity in the form of false teaching and which were
introduced by seeming Christians but by Jews in secret. The latter
then recruited upright and good Christians for the arising heretical
movement by persuading the latter in a crafty way.
The secret Jews organized and controlled in secret manner the
movements, which were the creative and driving-force of wicked
false teachings, such as those of the Catarensers, of the
Patarines, of the Albignensians, of the Hussites, of the
Illuminati and others. (The Plot Against the Church, p.236)

Crypto-Jews also gained entrance to the highest offices of the Roman Church
without being detected, as well as the political and economic institutions of
Western Europe.

The work of these Jews smuggled as Fifth Column into the
bosom of the Church of Christ was made easier through the
hypocritical conversion to Christianity or that of their forefathers.
In addition, they laid aside their Jewish surnames and took on very
Christian names, which were embellished with the surnames of
their godfathers. Thus they were successful in mixing with the
Christian society and taking possession of the names of the leading
families of France, Italy, England, Spain, Portugal, Germany,
Poland and the other lands of Christian Europe. With this system,
they were successful in penetrating into the bosom of Christianity
itself, in order to destroy it from within and to destroy the core of
the religious, political and economic institutions
However, what called forth most scandal was the fact, that
these secret Jews introduced their sons into the established clergy
and monasteries, and in fact with such good result that many of
them attained the dignity of abbot, bishop and other leading
personages. (The Plot Against the Church, p.237)

Jewish supremacy over the Gentiles was a direct result of the Cabalists
infiltration of the Papacy, as well as the nobility of Europe. However, the Catholic
priests do greatly err when they state: Holy Church, every time an heretical or
estranged bishop or cardinal or a false pope appeared, regarded it as unavoidable
to unmask them publicly, in order to prevent them dragging the faithful into
further misfortune. (Pinay. p. 253)

THE MEROVINGIANS

To corroborate the Jewish infiltration of the Roman Church, the famous Jewish
historian, Cecil Roth (1925-70), was cited by M. Pinay. Dr. Roth was editor-in-
chief of the Encyclopedia Judaica and his volume, History of the Marranos,
specifically dealt with the phenomenon of crypto-Jewry in medieval Europe.

In order to prove a part of the facts which were mentioned in
the preceding chapter, we fall back upon the evidence of the
contemporary Jewish historian, who is very authoritative in his
material, the careful and painfully exact Cecil Roth. The latter is
rightly recognised in Israelite circles as the most outstanding
contemporary Jewish historical writer, above all upon material of
crypto-Jewry.
In his famed work History of the Marranos, Cecil Roth gives
very interesting details, of how the Jews, thanks to their equally
skilled false conversion, entered Christianity and appeared publicly
as Christians, however, secretly held to their Jewish religion. He
also shows us, how this secret belief was passed on by parents to
children, covered with the appearance of an outward Christian
militancy...:
...The Church admittedly disapproved of compulsory
conversion. Baptisms, which were undertaken under such
conditions, were regarded as invalid. Pope Gregory the Great (590-
604) repeatedly condemned them, although he gladly received in a
friendly and heartfelt way those who were attracted with other
means. The greatest part of his successors followed his example.
Nevertheless heed was not always paid to the Papal ban. It was
naturally admitted, that compulsory conversion was not Canonic.
In order to circumvent it, the Jews were threatened with expulsion
or death, and they were given to understand that they would save
themselves through baptism. It occurred at times, that the Jews
subjected themselves to a hard necessity. In such cases their
acceptance of Christianity was regarded as spontaneous. In this
manner, a compulsory mass conversion took place in Mahom,
Minorca (418) under the Protectorate of Bishop Severo. A similar
episode took place in Clermont (Auvergne)in the year 576; and
in spite of the disapproval of Gregory the Great the example spread
into different places in France. In the year 629 King Dagobert
commanded all Jews of the land to accept baptism under threat of
banishment. The measure was imitated a little later in Lombardy.
after the Jews had been driven out of the south of France,
some proud ancestral families, as a result of rumors, carried on
Judaism in their homes as residue of the blood of those Jews who
preferred to remain as public and confessing Catholics.
...Towards the end of the XIIIth century the Anjou, who ruled
Naples, introduced a general conversion of Jews in their
neighbourhood of the city of Trani. Under the name new-converts
(neophytes) the proselytes continued to live for three hundred
years as crypto-Jews. Their secret loyalty to Judaism was one of
the motives for which reason the Inquisition became active in
Naples in the 16th century Some escaped to the Balkans, where
they joined themselves with the existing Jewish communities.
Their descendants in south Italy still preserve some vague
memories of Judaism up to the present day.
This phenomenon in no way remained restricted to the
Christian world. In various parts of the Mohammedan world
ancient communities of crypt-Jews are found. The Daggatun of
the Sahara continued to practice the Jewish belief for a long time
after their formal conversion to Islam, and their present sons have
still not completely forgotten it. The Donmeh of Salonica
originate from the adherents of the pseudo-Messiah Sabbetai Zevi,
whom they followed in his rebellion. Even if they were in public
complete Muselmen, they practiced at home a Messianic Judaism.
Further to the east there are still other examples
In fact the classical land of crypto-Jewry is Spain. Tradition
there has been durable and universal to such an extent that one
must raise the suspicion that a Marranian receptivity is present in
the atmosphere of the land itself. Even at the time of the Romans
the Jews were numerous and influential. Many of them asserted
that they were descended from the aristocracy of Jerusalem, who
had been deported by Titus or by earlier conquerors into
banishment. (History of the Marranos, pp.236, 240-43)

In the year 629 King Dagobert commanded all Jews of the land to accept
baptism under threat of banishment. What Cecil Roth fails to disclose is that
King Dagobert was himself a Merovingian Jew. As the learned editor of the
Encyclopedia Judaica, surely Dr. Roth knew this important fact and much more
about the Merovingian dynasty, which ruled France, which dominated Europe,
from the 5th to the 8th centuries. Moreover, in this excerpt from Cecil Roth's
volume on the Marranos, brief mention is made that the Anjou, who ruled
Naples, introduced a general conversion of Jews, while neglecting to state that
the House of Anjou were among the most powerful Jewish Merovingian
bloodlines which masterminded and funded the Crusades as well as the
Renaissance.

Cecil Roth not only omitted to inform his readers of the Jewish ethnicity of these
medieval power elites, or even to mention the Merovingian branch of European
Jewry, the renowned Jewish historian made the following astonishing statement in
another work, The Dark Ages. Jews in Christian Europe 7111096, which is
Vol.11 of The World History of the Jewish People:

It seemed that they (the Jews) totally disappeared together with
the breakdown of the Roman Empire. However, we dont find any
evidence of their presence until the Carolingian period... Of course
we know from inscriptions and other sources about Jewish
societies and single persons in nearly all provinces of the Roman
Empire, and we can reasonably suppose with or without proof
that there is in fact no district without Jews. (The Dark Ages. Jews
in Christian Europe, London, 1966, pp. 162, 4)

Why would Dr. Roth attempt to conceal the real history of European Jewry from
approximately 500-800 A.D.? He acknowledges their presence but has nothing to
say of their business, which was governing Europe! The reason will become
obvious. The Merovingians became the royalty of Europe, having claimed Jewish
descent from King David, King Solomon and, posturing as Christians, from Jesus
Christ through Mary Magdalene! Starting with the first Merovingian king of
France, Clovis I, who converted to Christianity in 496 A.D. along with his
Jewish household and 3,000 of his Jewish warriors, these Jewish monarchs
promulgated a heretical version of the gospel. The Merovingian heresy, which is
today being reintroduced to through books such as The DaVinci Code (a revival
Dr. Roth must have anticipated) goes like this:

Mary Magdalen has been a critical figure in our story. The
evidence strongly suggests she escaped Israel with the bloodline of
Jesus, the heir apparent of the king of the Jews, and the issue of a
royal marriage which combined the royal lines of the tribes of
Judaea and Benjamina merging as well of a patriarchal
Judaism and those Jews still honoring the mother Goddess.
She may have also been carrying the true royal bloodthe Star
Fire, or the ORME being manufactured by the Essenes for their
chosen leaders.
Finding her way to Gaulwhere established Jewish
communities already existedthe Magdalen...found refuge for her
and her treasures. The bloodline...perpetuated itself, intact and
incognito, for some four hundred years...including dynastic
intermarriages not only with other Jewish families but with
Romans and Visigoths as well. And...in the fifth century Jesus
lineage became allied with the royal line of the Franks, thereby
engendering the Merovingian dynasty.
This would explain the sacred status accorded the
Merovingians, the legendary birth of Meroveechild of two
fathers, one of them a symbolic marine creature from beyond the
sea, a marine creature which, like Jesus, might be equated with a
mystical fishThe Fisher King. (Library of Halexandria)

Another Jewish historian, H. Graetz, recorded in History of the Jews a similar
forced conversion by Clovis father-in-law, Chilperich (523-584 AD), who ruled
over Burgundy in the Frankish Kingdom:

Although King Chilperich was not very favorable to the Catholic
clergy, he...also forced the Jews in his kingdom to be baptised, and
he personally went to the baptismal font as Pater of the newly-
converted. However, he was satisfied with the mere appearance of
conversions, and he was not hostile to the Jews, when they
continued to celebrate the Sabbath and followed the Jewish
Laws. (The Plot Against the Church, p. 415)

King Dagobert I, the great-great-grandson of Clovis I, followed in his ancestors
footsteps by compelling the conversion of Jews in 629 A.D., as recorded by the
historian Roth. By forcing Jews to convert, Dagobert set a precedent for future
contravention of a ban by Gregory the Great, himself a Merovingian who, as
pope, overtly condemned the forced conversion of Jews but failed to enforce the
papal ban.

The Church admittedly disapproved of compulsory
conversion... Pope Gregory the Great (590-604) repeatedly
condemned them... Nevertheless heed was not always paid to the
Papal ban... In order to circumvent it, the Jews were threatened
with expulsion or death, and they were given to understand that
they would save themselves through baptism...
In the year 629 King Dagobert commanded all Jews of the land
to accept baptism under threat of banishment...
Towards the end of the XIIIth century the Anjou, who ruled
Naples, introduced a general conversion of Jews...
...Many of them asserted that they were descended from the
aristocracy of Jerusalem, who had been deported by Titus or by
earlier conquerors into banishment. (Cecil Roth, as cited in The
Plot Against the Church)

The irony of this charade is that the popes who condemned forced conversions to
Christianity, such as Gregory I, and the rulers who compelled the Jews to convert,
such as Dagobert and the House of Anjou, were all Merovingian Jews! The
foreseeable consequence of coercing whole populations of Jews to convert to
Christianity was massive infiltration of the Roman Catholic Church by European
Jewry.

It was from a Catholic expose of the Merovingians titled The Merovingian
Infiltration of the Christian World Through Monasticism that we learned that
Pope Gregory the Great (540-604 AD), who issued the phony papal ban against
compulsory conversions, was a Merovingian:

Sept. 3 became a day of victory for the Red Movement when he
was installed as their pope, for Gregory marks the history of the
papacy in that he was the very first MONK to become a pope.
Accordingly, when Phocus, a cruel military usurper, murdered
Emperor Maurice and his entire family in the most brutal fashion,
Gregory sent a letter to Phocus expressing hopes that peace was
now restored, a letter which served as criticism of him while he
lived; another, his wasting of the entire treasury of the church, as
waged against him at death. Butlers comment that the Mary
Magdalene story was received in the West following Gregory
the Great now makes sense, since she is central to the
Merovingian heresy.

It was Pope Gregory the Great who conflated Mary Magdalene and Mary, the
sister of Martha and Lazarus, into one person. In 591 A.D., Gregory declared in a
sermon, She whom Luke calls the sinful woman, whom John calls Mary [of
Bethany], we believe to be the Mary from whom seven devils were ejected
according to Mark. It then became the official teaching of the Catholic Church
that this Mary, was also the prostitute who washed the feet of Jesus in Luke
7:36-50. Merging the identities of the women who followed Jesus provided
theological support for the Merovingian fabrication of the legendary wife of
Jesus.

The Jewish historian Roth would have the world believe that the medieval Jews
were quietly minding their own business from 500-800 A.D. whilst, in fact, they
were managing the affairs of state from the thrones of Europe and the Papacy!
Michael Bradley wrote of their acquired nobility in Holy Grail Across the
Atlantic:

There was a very great Jewish component among the
Sicambrian Franks/Merovingians and, because they practiced
polygamy (another Merovingian peculiarity) they left a great
number of offspring. These aristocratic Merovingian children
married into almost all of the noble families of Europe during the
5th, 6th, and 7th centuries. This has prompted more than one
historian to suggest that the foundation of European nobility is
Jewish! (p.180)

M. Pinay observed, This vanishing act on the part of Jewry, in order to remain
hidden from the eyes of history to use this fortunately chosen expression of
Graetzs was always the most dangerous thing in the affair, since they grew
from a visible Fifth Column into a secret force, an invisible power, which is
more difficult to combat as such. (p.414)

In 679 A.D., the Carolingians, a rival dynasty, arranged for the assassination of
Dagobert II (grandson of Dagobert I) and his son, Sigisbert IV. The
Merovingians, however, claim that documents discovered in France testify to the
continuation of their lineage in the person of Sigisbert who, they happily report,
survived the assassination attempt:

The Merovingian dynasty continued formally with Thierry IV and
Childric III who was removed in 751 and this was the end of the
dynasty. According to the parchment found by Saunire, and this
could be true according to some historians, Sigebert IV escaped
and arrived in the Razes on the 17 of January 681 where he took
refuge with his grand father. Dagobert II had as a second wife
Gisle, the daughter of Bra II the count of Razs. The
Merovingian line included, after Sigebert IV (676-758) also known
as the Plant-Ard - from whom Mr Plantard took his name!-:
Sigebert V (695-768), Bera III (715-771), Guillemon, Bera IV
(755-836), Bera V (794-860), Hildric I and finally Sigebert VI
known as Ursus. (Official International Knights Templar
Website) [website no longer available]

In 750 A.D., a document titled The Donation of Constantine was discovered
which proclaimed that the Pope was Christs elected representative on Earth with
the power to create kings as his subordinates. (Keep in mind that the
Merovingians now controlled the papacy.) In 751, the provisions of this
document, supposedly signed by Constantine, were put into effect by the Vatican,
and the pope gave permission to Pepin III, the Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia,
to take the Frankish crown from Dagoberts nephew, Childeric III. Pepin became
the first Carolingian King of the Franks and was succeeded in 768 by his sons
Carloman and Charles I who was later called Charlemagne. The Merovingian
dynasty was terminated in 800 A.D. with the papal coronation of Charlemagne,
who became the Holy Roman Emperor.

This would appear to be a coup detat removing the Merovingians from power.
However, according to Margaret Starbird, author of The Woman with the
Alabaster Jar: Mary Magdalene and the Holy Grail, ...to consolidate his claim to
the throne of the Franks, Charlemagne had himself married a Merovingian
princess. (Bear & Co. 1993) It is indicative of the stranglehold which the
Merovingian Jews had on Europe, that Charlemagne and his Carolingian
successors married Merovingian wives to guarantee the continuation of their
dynasty. The anonymous author of The Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian
World Through Monasticism also notes that the Carolingians not only took
measures to legitimize themselves as Holy Roman Emperors by taking
Merovingian wives, but also claiming descent from Jesus Christ!

In the [8th] century the Merovingian Dynasty of France was
overthrown by the mayors of the Merovingian Palaces, the
Carolingians (741). But Carolingians were also a major part of the
JesusMagdalene heresy... They took Merovingian wives to assure
that the heretical divine bloodline was preserved twofold. The
Carolingian empire became the unholy Holy Roman Empire under
Charlemagne who became the first Emperor, a huge coup.

MOUNT SION

Dagoberts Revenge is the magazine of the Ordo Lapsit Exillis which is
dedicated to the restoration of the Merovingian dynasty for world government.

The title Dagoberts Revenge signifies not just the vengeance
sought by the Merovingians against the Catholic church which
betrayed them, but also, in a broader sense, the struggle of all
members of the ancient bloodline of the Holy Grail (which goes
back, we believe, to the beginnings of civilization), the only
bearers of true God-ordained sovereignty, against the forces which,
in every age, have attempted to wrest power away from the
bloodline merely for the purpose of domination.

The Ordo Lapsit Exillis claims to be an invisible college dedicated to the
recovery of the Stone that fell from Heaven, called by our ancestors the
Grail. OLEs explanation of the Grail should give the reader a clue as to the
true origins of the Merovingians.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!
how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the
nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon
the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will
ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most
High. (Isaiah 14:12-14)

Clearly, the Jesus-Mary Magdalene heresy is a subterfuge, for Merovingian
claims to divinity point to lineage from another source altogether. The progenitors
of the ancient bloodline of the Holy Grail which goes back to the beginnings of
civilization were the fallen angels who mated with human women, per Genesis
6:1,2: And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth,
and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of
men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

According to a Hebrew resource for Navigating the Bible, the sons of God were
the Titans. Nefilim in Hebrew, literally fallen ones. They were called this
because they were the sons of the fallen angels (Targum Yonathan). This
demonic ancestry of the Merovingians is explicitly stated on Dagoberts Revenge
in Edouard de Legionnaires essay, The Biological Basis of Elitism and Divine
Right Rule:

The all-important element of the Divine Right is that it comes
from God, or the gods, alternately. And who were these gods?
Authors such as Zecharia Sitchin, Sir Laurence Gardner and
Nicholas de Vere are authoritatively convinced that kingship was
created by an advanced race of beings called the Annunaki, also
called the Nephilim in the Old Testament. These were the ones
who created the human race and interbred with a portion of it to
create the kingly caste which until this day has still maintained
control over the Earth. These celestial creatures have been
variously identified with Dragons, Elves, Fairies, Gnomes,
Leprechauns, Sprites, Nymphs, Pixies, Angels, Demons, Devils,
Witches, Giants, Vampires, Werewolves, and just about every
mythical being you can imagine. Some, like Gardner and Sitchin,
claim that they come from another planet. Others, like de Vere, say
that theyre multi-dimensional, or that theyre from the Hollow
Earth. (323)

According to The Book of Enoch the Prophet as translated by Richard Laurence,
The Nephilim are described as descending from Mount Hermon.

And the angels, the children of heaven, saw them [handsome and
beautiful daughters] and desired them... And they were
altogether two hundred; and they descended into Ardos, which is
the summit of Hermon. And they called the mount Armon, for they
swore and bound one another by a curse. 251:15 [I Enoch VI.6,
vs.1-5]

As recounted in the Dead Sea Scrolls: .....In the days of Jared,
two hundred Watchers descended on Ardis, the summit of
Mount Hermon - a mythical location equated with the triple peak
of Jebel esh Sheikh (9,200 feet), placed in the most northerly
region of ancient Palestine. (The Watchers)

The Dead Sea Scrolls include the earliest version of the Book of Enoch, which
was rejected for the canon of Scripture. The Scrolls were authored by the
monastic Essene community of Qumran, believed to be the apostate Tribe of Dan
which inherited the pre-flood paganism, Baal worship, of the Canaanites. The
location of the Nephilims descentMount Hermon, also called Mount Sionis
in the territory of Dan, formerly the land of the Canaanites, in northern Israel.
According to the Atlas of the Bible Lands, Part of the tribe of Dan, unable to
secure its inheritance, migrated north and captured Laish, renaming it Dan. (
p.8)

And the coast of the children of Dan went out too little for them:
therefore the children of Dan went up to fight against Leshem, and
took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and possessed it,
and dwelt therein, and called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan
their father. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of
Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages.
Joshua 19:47-48

And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan
their father, who was born unto Israel: howbeit the name of the city
was Laish at the first. Judges 18:29

The northern area of Palestine at Mt. Hermon happens to be located at the 33,
both latitude and longitude, according to the Paris Zero Meridian (used before the
Greenwich International Zero Meridian was established in 1884).

St Sulpice (d. c.647). This contemporary of St Dagobert also has
his feast day on 17 January. He was the second Bishop of Bourges,
which is on the zero meridian of Paris, like Rennes-les-Bains, and
was successful in converting all the Jews of his diocese. He was
the protege of the goldsmith of St Eloi, Grand Vizier of Dagobert I.
The famous seminary and church dedicated to him in Paris
contains the obelisk with the copper line down the centre marking
the exact point of the meridian. St Sulpice, in the grounds of St
Germain-des-Pres (qv), had connections with the Prieure from its
foundation in 1642. [Ean Begg, The Cult of the Black Virgin,
Arkana, 1985, p.110.]
The Zero Meridian is the 33rd degree longitude.
MONASTICISM

We suspected for some time that monasteries were often fronts for occult as well
as homosexual activity. The Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian World
Through Monasticism confirmed our suspicions that many Catholic religious
communities were steeped in Gnostic occultism ( la Anne Catherine Emmerich)
and that these Gnostic cults were points of entry for the Merovingians to accede
to the Papacy. St. Gregory the Great was the first of fifty Benedictine monks who
would become the pope:

The Merovingian Franks (450-741) built monasteries as a means
of infiltration...for Merovingian monasteries later became
Benedictine/ Cistercians... Pope Gregory the Greatpromoted
Benedictine monasticism. His feast day is the day he became pope,
September 3 [590 AD]. This was accomplished by the infiltration
of the Church, for Gregory was part of that infiltration. Sept. 3
became a day of victory for the Red Movement when he was
installed as their pope, for Gregory marks the history of the papacy
in that he was the very first MONK to become a pope.

The origins of monasticism are to be found in Egypt. Hermes Trismegistus, the
Greek Neo-Platonist name for the Egyptian god, Thoth, was the founder of
alchemy and geometry [29:245] and the prototype of the hermit. In the
philosophy of Plato and the Neoplatonists, spirituality increased in relation to
contempt for earthly values. Christian eremitical beliefs were borrowed from the
Jewish eremitical Essenes and Therapeutae. Philo of the Therapeutae taught
Pantaneus, who founded the Alexandrian Catechetical School where he trained
Clement, who became his successor in 180 A.D. Clement, in turn, trained Origen,
who succeeded him as director of the Catechetical School in 202 A.D. The
famous Egyptian hermit, St. Anthony the Great (251-356 AD), was the founder of
Eastern monasticism and mystery religions schools, as well as the most influential
figure in the development of pre-Benedictine monasticism. In the 4
th
century,
monasticism was transported to Europe by St. Athanasius (296-373 AD), the
Bishop of Alexandria, who was profoundly influenced by St. Antony.

Antony of Egypt (251-356): ascetic Brother of the sun-god and
founder of Eastern monasticism. Demons permeate his legend. He
passed one of his sheepskin cloaks to Athanasius, spiritual head of
desert hermits and Ethiopia, Bishop of Alexandria, father of
Orthodoxy. Athanasius had likewise given his cloak to Antony and
subsequently wrote Antonys biography, just as Gregory later
wrote that of Benedict. Antonys feast day, Jan.17, would become
sacred to the Merovingians and their Sion Organization, which
convents were historically convened Jan.17 in honor of Antonys
success at infiltrating the Christian world. Antonys remains would
come to rest in Vienne France It was Athanasius who introduced
monasticism to the Romans and Germans
The rule of St. Columbanus and of Benedict in Europe were
developed into major monastic communities by the Merovingians
who provided not only the monasteries themselves, but charters
granting them complete exemption from episcopal and secular
intervention, making them fully and completely autonomous.
Merovingians of ancient Egypt had thus assured the continuity of
Egyptian error. Gibbons hits the nail on the head when he writes,
Swarms of monks arose from the Nile, overspread and darkened
the Christian world. Saints Who History Made p. 82

Athanasius is known as the Father of orthodoxy and the theological center of
the Nicene age (Schaff). As the famous opponent of the Arian heresy,
Athanasius valiantly defended the divinity of Jesus Christ. However, he also
taught that the Incarnation of the Word divinized human flesh, making it
possible for men to become gods. God became man that men might become
gods, wrote Athanasius. Arianism was condemned and Arius, a Jew, was
excommunicated at the Council of Nicea in 321 A.D. Although Athanasius led the
bishops to contend for the faith as to the person of Jesus Christ, it was at this
ecumenical council that celibacy became a requirement for Christian leaders, as
stated in the Catholic Encyclopedia. Other traditions of the Roman Catholic
Church were adopted from Egyptian monasticism under the leadership of
Athanasius, such as the following mentioned in David Brakes book, Athanasius
and Asceticism:

1. Virgins
o Regarded exclusively as the Bride of Christ [597: 11]
o Deification of virgins led to the Blessed Virgin Mary [597::17, 77]
o Virgin Mary was the model for virgins [597:54, 70]
o Convents established [597:24,27]
o Vow of Silence [597:72-3]
o Formal vow of celibacy [597:14]
o Inheritances given to the Roman Church [597:33]
o Changed the name given by parents [597:41]
o Pilgrimages to Holy Land; venerated sacred sites and mystical caves
[597:36,38]
o Adopted Greek/Latin ideal: wives silent, submissive [597:75]
o Bishops/priests were earthly representatives of virgins Heavenly
Bridegroom
2. Monks
o Appointed as bishops [597:12,99]
o Established monastic communities as part of Church under authority of
bishops [597:86]
o Status/title of father/ abbas [597:84]; Abbas received visions/revelations
inspired by God
o Pre-incarnation virgins Elijah, Elisha, Jeremiah, John the Baptist [597:55]
3. Parish churches [597:12]
4. Sacraments [597:12]
5. Imitation of Saints [597:12]
6. Lent/ascetic program [597:13]
7. Priesthood [597:14]
8. Easter celebration [597:40]
9. Martyr shrines [597:100]
10. Salvation by works [597:55-6]

It is conceivable that the Council of Nicea, subsequent ecumenical councils, and the
controversies leading to them were part of the dialectical process to remove Christianity off its
Scriptural base. Introduce a heresy (antithesis) to challenge a Biblical truth (thesis) and stage an
ecumenical council (synthesis) to bring in another heresy. The Nestorian controversy revolved
around the issue of whether Mary was the Mother of God (Theotokos) or the Mother of
Christ (Christotokos) as stated by Nestorius. At the Council of Ephesus in 431 A.D., Nestorius
was condemned and Mary was declared to be the Mother of God. Of interest, Ephesus was a
center of goddess-worship where the Essenes had established their school.

THE PRIEUR DE SION

In 1070 A.D., a group of monks from Calabria, the southernmost region of Italy,
relocated to France to territory owned by one Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon, of the
House of Vere, senior branch of the House of Anjou. (Recall Cecil Roths
statement that the Anjou who ruled Naples in the 13th century compelled the
conversion of Jews to Roman Catholicism.) The Calabrian monks, who called
themselves the Ordre de Sion, were given a tract of land owned by St. Bernard of
Clairvaux, the founder of the Cistercian Order and author of the Rule of the
Knights Templar. St. Bernard was of the Merovingian line of Champagne, which
funded the Cistercians.

The Prieur documents imply that...an abbey existed by 1100
and housed an order of the...name [Ordre de Sion] which may have
been formed earlier... It is known that in 1070, twenty-nine years
before the First Crusade, a specific band of monks from Calabria in
southern Italy arrived in the vicinity of the Ardennes Forrest, part
of Godfroi de Bouillons domains. According to Grard de Sde
this band of monks was led by an individual called Ursusa name
the Prieur documents consistently associate with the
Merovingian bloodline... [A]t Orval, not far from Stenay, where
Dagobert II had been assassinated some five hundred years
earlier...an abbey was established to house the monks... By 1108
they had mysteriously disappeared... Orval, by 1131, had become
one of the fiefs owned by Saint Bernard... (pp.13)

It is noteworthy that Calabria would also be the home of Joachim of Fiore
(c.1135-1202), another Cistercian monk and heretic who predicted a future era of
the Holy Spirit which would be marked by increased spiritual intelligence and a
new religious order which would convert both Jews and Gentiles to Christianity:
William Gentz stated in The Dictionary of Bible and Religion, Ushered in by
monastics, the Age of the Spirit would bring the conversion of the Jews and
Gentiles, union of the Greek and Roman churches, overthrow of Antichrist and
inauguration of the Sabbath of God. (p.530) Joachim envisioned a third age
when the world would be one vast monastery, in which all men would be
contemplative monks rapt in mystical ecstasy and united in singing the praises of
God. (Norman Cohn, Pursuit of the Millennium, pp. 108-9)

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, the Ordre de Sion of the Calabrian monks
became the Prieur de Sion and this society had its origins in the Alexandrian
Society of Ormus. Prieur is the French form of priory which is a monastery
or religious house presided over by a prior or prioress; sometimes an offshoot of,
and subordinate to, an abbey (Webster):

In 1188 the Ordre de Sion is...said to have modified its name,
adopting the one which has allegedly obtained to the presentthe
Prieur de Sion. As a kind of subtitle it is said to have adopted the
curious name Ormus.
According to Masonic teachings, Ormus was the name of an
Egyptian sage and mystic, a Gnostic adept of Alexandria In
A.D. 46 he and six of his followers were supposedly converted to a
form of Christianity by one of Jesus disciples, Saint Mark in most
accounts. From this conversion a new sect or order is said to have
been born, which fused the tenets of Christianity with the teachings
of other, even older mystery schools
According to Masonic tradition, in A.D. 46 Ormus is said to
have conferred on his newly constituted order of initiates a
specific identifying symbola red or a rose cross in [the]
Prieur documentsOne is intended to see in Ormus the origins
of the so-called Rose-Croix, or Rosicrucians. And in 1188 the
Prieur de Sion is said to have adopted a second subtitle in addition
to Ormus. It is said to have called itself LOrdre de la Rose-Croix
Veritas... (Holy Blood, Holy Grail, pp. 122-3)

It was established in Part I that the Society of Ormus was founded circa 96 B.C. in
Alexandria by Jewish monks. According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail and various
other New Age sources, the Prieur de Sion is the high cabal of the Order of the
Rose Croix in Europe. The origins of the Prieur de Sion in the monastic Society
of Ormus are also documented in Michael Howards Occult Conspiracy:

The foundation of the Priory can be traced back allegedly to the
gnostic adept Ormus who lived in the first century C.E.... He
formed a secret society which united esoteric Christianity with the
teachings of the pagan mystery schools. Ormus adopted as his
symbol a cross surmounted by a rose to signify the synthesis of
the new and old religions. ...Ormus, the legendary first century
founder of the secret society which became the Priory of Sion
lived in Alexandria. (Occult Conspiracy, pp.31, 142)

Recently there has been an elaborate attempt to conceal the antiquity of the
Prieur de Sion which is revealed in New Age books to be the august body that
oversees all other secret societies from its headquarters in Paris. For obvious
reasons, this information was not intended to reach the Christian community
which is slated for boat loads of disinformation instead. The occult underground,
by virtue of the fact that occultists read New Age books, were alone meant to be
privy to the existence of the Prieur de Sion and to the nature of its mission. It
may never have occurred to the conspirators that Christians might read New Age
books and, equipped with knowledge of Bible prophecy, be able to assemble the
pieces of end-time puzzle.

This unforeseen exposure of the Prieur de Sion as the high cabal of secret
societieswhose Grand Master will be the Antichristhas occasioned a number
of damage control measures, from Paul Smiths website debunking the late Grand
Master, Pierre Plantard, as a nobody with delusions of grandeur, to a spate of
Christian books which pretend to expose The Da Vinci Code. This popular
novel goes into some detail about the Priory of Zion, its medieval history and
continuation as the present day Prieur de Sion in Paris, as well as extolling the
pedigree of the Plantard de Saint-Claire bloodline. The so-called Christian
apologetics resources which feign exposing The Da Vinci Code argue against the
Dan Browns thesis by claiming that the Prieur de Sion was just a small club of
friends founded in 1956 by Pierre Plantard, which fizzled around 1984, and had
no connection whatsoever with the medieval Prieur de Sion that created the
Order of the Knights Templar.

If it is the case that the Plantard de Saint-Claire bloodline and the Prieur de Sion
are of no consequence, then why the plethora of New Age books conditioning the
public for their imminent appearance on the world stage? Holy Blood, Holy
Grail, The Messianic Legacy and The Da Vinci Code are not journalistic flops but
best-sellers on the global market. Holy Blood, Holy Grail has sold over 20,000
copies and The Da Vinci Code, which has been on the best-seller list for one year,
has sold 5 million copies. Moreover, The Da Vinci Code will be released next
year as a movie directed by Ron Howard. If Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire was a
charlatan, his lineage a bunch of pretenders, and the Prieur de Sion a fabrication,
why are millions of $$$ being expended by the mainstream media to educate the
public as to their singular importance?

These New Age sources have much more to say about the Prieur de Sion which
is not intended for Christian readers, lest, with their knowledge of Bible prophecy,
they also figure out the Big Jigsaw. According to The Messianic Legacy, by the
famous authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail, the Prieur de Sion, in concert with
the Knights of Malta, are leaders of global politics, finance, religion and
intelligence.

The French press, in a brief article on M. Plantards election as
Grand Master in 1981 had stated that the 121 high dignitaries of
the Prieur de Sion are all eminences grises of high finance and
international political or philosophical organisations. Something
very similar could clearly be said about the Knights of Malta. By
virtue of their intrinsic natures, both Orders could be expected to
function in much the same sphere, the twilight underworld where
politics, finance, religion and the work of various intelligence
organizations converge. - 232:362

According the Laurence Gardners Bloodline of the Holy Grail, the primary goal
of the Prieur de Sion was, and is, to reestablish the Merovingian bloodline as the
royalty of Europe.

During this crusading era, various knightly Orders merged,
including the Ordre de Sion (Order of Sion) [aka Prieur de
Sion] founded by Godefroi de Bouillon in 1099...
From 1188, the Order of Sion had been restructured, and
evolved to pursue a more specific course of loyalty to the
Merovingian lineage of France. The Templars, on the other hand,
were especially concerned with supporting the emergent Stewart
succession. In practice, the two operated in close association
because they were essentially concerned with the same root
bloodline - 29:256,323

Another piece of the jigsaw is that the Grand Masters of the Prieur de Sion
changed their surnames to obscure their Jewish origins. For example, Jeroboam
Rothschild was a member of this secret cabal.

Not all members of the Prieur de Sion, [Jean Luc Chaumeil]
said, were Jewish. This implication of this apparent non sequitor is
obvious -- that some members of the order, if not indeed many,
are Jewish. (Holy Blood, Holy Grail, p. 223)

The Prieur de Sion - the Elders of Sion also relates to the
Rothschilds who are reported to serve on a Jewish council of
Elders of Sion... For instance, Armstrong, the Rothschild Trust, p.
196, That is the present objective of Jeroboam Rothschild and
his secret Elders of Zion. - 77:152,163

The British Round Table group served at the [Paris Peace]
conference as advisers to Prime Minister David Lloyd George.
[The real behind- the-scene experts at the Paris conference
included M. (Georges) Mandel (real name Jeroboam Rothschild)
(France), Phillip Sassoon (1888-1939) (England) and Bernard
Baruch (U.S.).] 539

Russell Barnes...wrote: 'Some years ago I was in contact with the
author Sinclair Traill... He wore a sturdy gold ring...[with] an
unusual motif which at first glance appeared to be a column. He
said the ring and its motif were associated historically with his
Sinclair [St. Clair] forbearers, a name preserved by use as his
Christian name. - 96:84

The Prieur de Sion was created and has been directed by individuals related to
the Saint-Claire bloodline.

Through marriage the family of Marie Levis St. Claire was
connected to the de Gisors, the family from which the first and
third grand masters of the Prieur de Sion came. Without question,
Prieur de Sion was created and run by individuals related to the
St. Claires. The third grand master was in charge in the year that
the Templars were ordered arrested and the treasure fleet set sail
for Scotland to escape the agents of the French king. Did one St.
Claire (from France) correspond with another Sinclair (from
Scotland) for this express purpose? Most likely the answer is yes.
- 281:178

Their domain [the Sinclair family--Scottish branch of the Norman
Saint-Clair Gisors family] at Rosslyn was only a few miles from
the former Scottish headquarters of the Knights Templar, and the
chapel at Rosslyn--built between 1446 and 1486--has long been
associated with both Freemasonry and the Rose-Croix. In a charter
believed to date from 1601, moreover, the Sinclairs are recognized
as 'hereditary' grand masters of Scottish Masonry.' This is the
earliest specifically Masonic document on record. According to
Masonic sources, however, the hereditary grand mastership was
conferred on the Sinclairs by James II, who ruled between 1437
and 1460--the age of Ren dAnjou. - 31:183

THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR

Given the historical and geographical background of the Prieur de Sion, it
becomes apparent why the Merovingian dynasty had a vested interest in the
reconquest of the Holy Land. To this end, by the close of the first millennium, the
Merovingian dynasty had strategically positioned its network of crypto-Jewry to
mobilize all of Europe for the long march to the Middle East. Most interesting of
all, Pope Urban II, who launched the First Crusade in 1099, was of Merovingian,
i.e. Jewish, descent and the 6th French Merovingian pope!

1088: Urban II, French Prior of Cluny (Reformed
Benedictines) becomes the pope. Urban was of the Eudes
family... [grandson] of Henry of Burgundy who married Sibylle of
Barcelona... Barcelona, home of their mother, was part of the
Spanish March connected to Septimania...
It happens that Septimania (Languedoc) is exactly where the
Jesus-Magdalene heresy flourished, and where there was a large
population of Cathar Jews who were given independent status by
Pepin, Carolingian King. Thence their own kings ruled as: seed of
the Royal House of David, each acknowledged as King of the
Jews... (Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian World
Through Monasticism)

The Second Messiah: Templars, The Turin Shroud and the Great Secret of
Freemasonry, by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas, has identified some of
the Jewish families who conspired with the Merovingian pope to plunder the Holy
Land. According to Knight and Lomas, these Jewish elites, who regarded
themselves as the kings of God, were the driving force behind every Crusade,
which is quite an admission considering that the later Crusades were directed
against the Cathar Jews in the Languedoc.

The picture that was emerging was of a group of European
noble families, descended from the Jewish lines of David and
Aaron, who had escaped from Jerusalem shortly before, or possible
even just after, the fall of the Temple. They had passed down the
knowledge of the artifacts concealed within the Temple to a chosen
son...of each family. Some of the families involved were the
Counts of Champagne, Lords of Gisors, Lords of Payen, Counts of
Fontaine, Counts of Anjou, de Bouillon, St. Clairs of Roslin,
Brienne, Joinville, Chaumont, St Clair de Gisor, St Clair de Neg
and the Hapsburgs...
By 1095, the members of the Rex Deus families group were
almost certainly fully Christianised, yet each of them must have
had at least one male member who held the traditional history of
their high-born Jewish roots close to his heart. No doubt they saw
themselves as super-Christians, descendants of the very first
Church, and privy to the greatest secret this side of heaven. They
were a silent elite the kings of God.
Indeed, the history books record that [Urban IIs] leadership
marked the papacys assumption of the leadership of Western
Christendom...
If the Rex Deus group did exist, it is easy to see how the First
Crusade provided these families with a God-given opportunity to
return to their Holy Temple to recover the treasure that was their
birthright - and it would be done at exactly the same time that the
Jewish writer of the Gospel of John the Divine had predicted! The
Rex Deus families were at the forefront of the First, and every
Crusade. Medieval scholars have long wondered why it should be
that the same families drove all of the Crusades for their entire
duration, and now we had a possible answer. (p.79)

It is suggested that at some period prior to 1128, Hughes De
Payen wrote to Bernard, later St Bernard of Clairvaux, by this time
the leading light in the Cistercian Order and a force to be reckoned
with in the Catholic Church. Hughes is supposed to have asked St
Bernard if he would consider sponsoring the embryonic Order and
perhaps create a Rule for what would be essentially an institution
of Holy Knights. It is extremely unlikely that St Bernard would
have needed to be approached officially by Hughes, who was
almost certainly known to the little man from Dijon and may
indeed have been a kinsman. A much more likely scenario is that
the shadowy group of Champagne based nobles who were almost
certainly responsible for the formation of the Cistercian Order
some years previously, had mooted the idea of the Templars at
least as early as 1118. It is suggested that documents found in
Seborga in Northern Italy virtually prove that St Bernard at least
had a direct hand in forming the Templars.
there is no doubt that, in one way or another, Bernard of
Clairvaux, the shining star of monasticism, was prevailed upon to
take the embryonic Templar Order under his wing, to regularise it
and to seek an official recognition by the Pope. In preparation for
the event, Bernard penned a long document entitled 'In Praise of
the New Knighthood'. This was a sort of open letter that justified
the existence of a group of monks whose only real existence was to
fight and kill others - something that flew directly in the face of all
monastic endeavour Bernardnot only managed to convince
many of his fellow monks that this was an excellent idea, but also
the Pope.
it is a fact that the Pope convened a council in Troyes, the
capital city of Champagne, in the year 1128... the Council was
being held in the heartland of Champagne, only a few miles from
Bernard's own flourishing abbey of Clairvaux. The Pope simply
could not avoid listening to what Bernard had to say without
directly insulting the Count of Champagne.
... Bernard had been busy converting the rule of St Benedict,
already adapted for the Cistercians themselves, to a form that
would fit the Templar Order. By the time the Pope sat down to
convene the Council of Troyes, he was faced with a fete acomplee.
He simply could not risk offending the rulers of Champagne, who
were also blood tied to the kings of Jerusalem...
As Bernard of Clairvaux was to do on many occasions during
his life, he had 'stitched up' the papacy, ensuring that the Templars
would not simply exist, but that they would be headed by factions
drawn directly from Champagne and from his own family. The
rest, as they say, is history. When Honorius II died in 1130, against
all the odds, Bernard managed to have Gregorio Papereschi, a man
with a dubious claim at best, elected as Pope Innocent II. This
Pope, and his successors, was deep in debt to Bernard, who left no
stone unturned to have more and more papal declarations made to
consolidate and promote the Templar Order. However, the Council
of Troyes of 1128 was the turning point of early Templar fortunes
and could be considered amongst St Bernard of Clairvaux's
greatest victories. (Templar History: The Council of Troyes)

After the First Crusade, the Knights of the Order of the Temple were officially
recognized and incorporated as a religious-military order under a Grand Master,
Hugues de Payen. By decree of Pope Innocent II, the Knights Templar were
accountable to no one except the Pope, who was typically a Merovingian. The
Knights Templar occupied the Holy Land until the Saracens recaptured Jerusalem
1187. In 1188, the Knights Templar and the Ordre de Sion allegedly separated,
the latter changing its name to the Prieur de Sion. In the next two hundred years,
the Templars would become the Jewish bankers of Europe, a powerful network
with international influence.

Pope Innocent II, a former protg of Saint Bernard, issued a
papal bull in 1139, which stated that the Templars owed no
allegiance to any secular or ecclesiastical power other than the
Pope himself. In this way, the Templars were rendered totally
independent of all kings, princes, and prelates, and from all
interference from both political and religious authorities. They
became, in effect, a law unto themselves. At the same time,
Europes younger sons of noble families flocked to enroll in the
orders ranks and vast donationsin money, goods, and land
were made from every quarter of Christendom. Eventually, the
Templars became so wealthy that they could lend vast sums of
money to destitute monarchs and became the international bankers
for thrones in Europe and certain Muslim potentates in the Middle
East. (Library of Halexandria)

THE ALBIGENSES

After their removal from the Holy Land, c. 1200, many Templars relocated to the
South of France, in the Languedoc where they claim Mary Magdalene and her
children settled. The Cathars of the Languedoc were the major Gnostic cult from
the 11th to the 13th centuries. In the Languedoc they were called Albigenses
because the town of Albi was a main center of Catharism. The Cathars/
Albigenses worshipped Mary Magdalene as the wife of Jesus Christ, whose
descendants they claimed to be. They believed in reincarnation and the dualist
heresy of the Manicheans, i.e. that the creator and master of this world was an
Evil Demiurge (Satan) and that the souls of angels were incarnated in human
bodies.

The Cathars also believed that the Grail was a jewel or stone that fell from the
crown of Lucifer, whom they worshipped as the true God, as opposed to the Evil
Demiurge who is Satan. The organization which publishes Dagoberts Revenge
is an invisible college called Ordo Lapsit Exillis which means The Stone That
Fell From Heaven, referring to Lucifer rebellion against the Evil Demiurge:

The Ordo Lapsit Exillis is named after the Stone that fell from
Heaven, the fabled jewel that is said to have fallen from Lucifers
crown during the war in Heaven, and which in the occult is used as
a symbol of enlightenment - of the descent of divine light form the
mind of God into the mind of Man. As such it symbolizes Venus,
the Morning Star, as well as the Luciferian doctrine of the initiates,
the secret knowledge which men are not allowed, and which
Lucifers angels were cast from Heaven for sharing with man. In
Freemasonry, this is symbolized as the Blazing Star, which is often
depicted as falling from Heaven. As Albert Pike writes in Morals
and Dogma, The Blazing Star has been regarded as an emblem of
Omniscience, or the All-Seeing Eye, which to the ancients was the
Sun. Masons also represent the Lapsit Exillis as the Stone that was
rejected - the secret cornerstone of Solomons Temple which
symbolizes the core of their teachings.

According to Pinay, the Cathari/Albigenses operated as crypto-Jews who led
heretical movements throughout Europe.

...Jewish revolutionary movements which appeared within
Christianity in the form of false teaching and which were
introduced by seeming Christians but by Jews in secret. The latter
then recruited upright and good Christians for the arising heretical
movement by persuading the latter in a crafty way.
The secret Jews organized and controlled in secret manner the
movements, which were the creative and driving-force of wicked
false teachings, such as those of the Catarensers, of the
Patarines, of the Albignensians, of the Hussites, of the
Illuminati and others. (p. 238)

The Cathar/Albigensian cults, whose counterparts in southeastern Europe were
the Bogomils and the Paulicians in the Near East, have been reimaged by various
pseudo-Christian ministries the true Christians who were unfairly persecuted by
the Roman Catholic Church. Not that God ever sanctioned burning heretics at the
stake, nevertheless, any good encyclopedia will furnish copious evidence of the
damnable heresies and occult traditions of these Gnostic cults which were also
politically subversive. A detailed discussion of the heresies and subversive
activities of these Gnostic sects is presented in our report: Shock & Awe in the
KJV-Only Camp: The Real History of King James Onlyism.

Although Maurice Pinay inveighed lengthily against Jewish infiltration of the Catholic clergy, it
seems never to have occurred to him that these Jews may have been agents provocateurs who
recruited upright and good Christians into heretical movements which their Marrano brethren
in the Vatican then brutally suppressed, thereby giving Christianity a reputation for aggression
and violence and bringing undeserved reproach upon the name of Jesus Christ, who preached
nonviolence. Nor did M. Pinay seem to realize that, in many cases, the kings and clergy who
compelled Jews to convert were themselves Jews who planned to infiltrate the Church in order to
divide and conquer Christianity. At any rate, a major theme of the Protocols of the Learned
Elders of Zion is a conspiracy to sow discord among the Gentiles and these conspirators know
very well that very few are immune to the dialectical process. Maurice Pinay was not one of
them, for he typically perceived the evil of only one side of what appears to have been a
controlled conflict, that is, both sides directed by the same conspirators.

In 1209, Pope Innocent III launched the Albigensian Crusade, at first to convert,
but eventually to eradicate the Cathars in the Languedoc. The Albigensian
Crusade was succession of campaigns which lasted for a period of 40 years,
turning the Languedoc into a war zone. In 1244, the final siege at Montsgur
lasted one year, during which time the Cathar and/or Templar wealth was secretly
removed to an undisclosed location. Like Mount Hermon/Sion, Montsegur is
important as a sacred site leading to the underworld and, in fact, was regarded
by the Merovingians as a New Sion. According to Tracy Twyman, the editor
of Dagoberts Revenge and author of Le Serpent Rouge Reinterpreted, the
center of the earth (aka Hell) is the waiting place of the ancient gods, whom
apostate Jews venerate as the Biblical patriarchs:

Hercules would seem to have much in common with Saturn, or
Kronos, the Cain figure of Roman and Greek mythology who was
also a navigator, and who in some Greek myths is said to have
been a consort of Venus, and in others has a different familial
relationship with her. Their relationship is similar to that between
Virgo and Mercury, who has a legend surrounding his tomb as well
that echoes that of Venus, Kronos, Osiris, Christian Rosenkreutz,
and a number of figures throughout world mythology that seem to
embody the same mythos - that of the Sun god who dies and is
reborn as his own son. They are all said to be buried in a tomb that
is, symbolically or otherwise, at the center of the Earth, which is
lit by an inner sun, and which is covered with hieroglyphic
writing. And the Tomb of Hercules, which is a cave that actually
exists in Montsegur nearby Rennes-le-Chateau, is indeed covered
with hieroglyphic symbols. This hearkens back to the Tower of
Babel, that symbol of the first universal language, and of the
World Mountain...
Perhaps this is what is symbolized by the ruined Temple of
Solomon, referred to repeatedly in the poem Le Serpent Rouge,
and throughout the Grail literature. The Temple of Solomon, like
the Towel of Babel and the Giza pyramids, is meant to symbolize
the World Mountain in the center of the Earth. But it is built on Mt
Zion, which, Jews believe, really is the World Mountain, and the
Cave of Treasures which is the burial place of all of the Biblical
patriarchs - every one of them based upon ancient gods such as
Kronos and Venus. Montsegur is the World Mountain in this
version of the story, a New Sion, and the mountains at Rennes-le-
Chateau are the temple erected to it - just like the Temple of
Solomon that was erected on Mt Sion, or, like the Grail castle was
erected upon Montsalveche, The Mountain of Salvation, very
similar in meaning to the Secure Mountain title of Montsegur.
(Dagoberts Revenge) [article no longer available]

The Cathars were exterminated in 1245, but the Knights Templar...

In 1306, Philippe IV of France, was acutely anxious to rid his
territory of the Templars, who were, at their best, arrogant and
unruly. But for Philippe, the Templars were also efficient and
highly trained, a professional military force much stronger and
better organized than anything Philippe IV could muster. Philippe
had no control over them, as their allegiance was only to the Pope,
and even the latter was only a nominal allegiance. (Library of
Halexandria)

On Friday, October 13, 1307, King Philip IV of France, through a Papal Order of
Pope Clement V, called for the arrest of every Templar in France on charges of
heresy and blasphemy and the confiscation of Templar property in France. King
Philip had good reason for ridding his territory of Templars. The Poor Knights of
Christ had become a criminal element who, as international bankers had power
to orchestrate the rise and fall of monarchs and popes. The decree was extended to
all of Europe.

During this period of persecution, many Templars fled to Scotland. Meanwhile,
back in France, the Prieur de Sion was still intact and fully operational, albeit
clandestinely, under a succession of Grand Masters all claiming to be Jewish
descendants of Jesus Christ. But whatever became of the Templar wealth? Albert
Pike disclosed in Morals & Dogma, not only the heirs of the Templars, but also
the high cabals motive for downsizing the Order:
The seeds of decay were sown in the Order of the Temple at its
origin. Hypocrisy is a mortal disease. It had conceived a great
work which it was incapable of executing, because it knew neither
humility nor personal abnegation, because Rome was then
invincible, and because the later Chiefs of the Order did not
comprehend its mission. Moreover, the Templars were in general
uneducated, and capable only of wielding the sword, with no
qualifications for governing, and at need enchaining, that Queen of
the World called Opinion...
Hugues de Payens himself had not that keen and far-sighted
intellect nor that grandeur of purpose which afterward
distinguished the military founder of another soldiery that became
formidable to kings. The Templars were unintelligent and therefore
unsuccessful Jesuits.
Their watchword was to become wealthy, in order to buy the
world. They became so, and in 1312 they possessed in Europe
alone more than nine thousand seignories. Riches were the shoal
on which they were wrecked. They became insolent, and unwisely
showed their contempt for the religious and social institutions
which they aimed to overthrow. Their ambition was fatal to them.
Their projects were divined and prevented... Pope Clement V, and
King Philip le Bel gave the signal to Europe, and the Templars,
taken as it were in an immense net, were arrested, disarmed, and
cast into prison. Never was a Coup d' Etat accomplished with a
more formidable concert of action. The whole world was struck
with stupor, and eagerly waited for the strange revelations of a
process that was to echo through so many ages.(p. 820)
THE AVIGNON PAPACY

Nearly all Protestant histories of the Roman Catholic Church fail to mention a
monumental event which radically alters the historical picture the Avignon
Papacy. For it was during the Templar Purge that the Roman curia and pope were
forcibly removed to the Merovingian territory of South France, whence a
Merovingian pope and papal court managed the Catholic Church for nearly 70
years. Appropriately called the Babylonian Captivity of the Church, it was
during this period that papal supremacy was declared, indulgences were first
sold and anti-clericalism was launchednot from Rome but by the Merovingian
pope and papal curia in the Merovingian stronghold of South France.

But when from 1305 to 1378 the papal curia was at Avignon
and the cardinals were nearly all Frenchmen, Englishmen were
offended: and from 1378 to 1418 the two popes, at Rome and
Avignon, caused scandal to all Dr. Walter Ullmann, in his recent
notable book on Medieval Papalism, quotes the fourteenth century
papalists as asserting that the pope, in the fulness of his power, was
beyond the reach of any mortal, emperor, king or any other The
pope could do and say whatever he pleased to do and say in all and
everything: he was above the law, whether natural (and, as it were
divine) or whether humanly devised In the conception of the
canonists, Dr. Ullmann writes, the pope was truly God on
earth.
A word then about Wycliffes anti-clericalism, a factor now
so much stressed as one of the causes of the sixteenth century
Reformation. Anti-clericalism did not begin with Wycliffe or in
England: it existed in France at the beginning of the fourteenth
century. It spread from the south French university of Montpellier,
a great law school, which trained most of the anti-clerical courtiers
and ministers of Philip IV... (Deanesly, The Significance of the
Lollard Bible)

The Avignon papacy in the lifetime of John Wycliffe and beyond seems to have
been custom designed by the French Merovingians to agitate public opinion
against the Church. It is also noteworthy that it was not the Church of Rome but
the Avignon papacy in France which declared the Immaculate Conception of
Mary to be a dogma of the Church. A late date of 1854 is often assigned to this
heretical teaching which became Catholic dogma by the decree of Pope Pius IX,
Ineffabilis Deus. However, its early history is documented, not only in the
Catholic Encyclopedia, but in historical accounts such as Henry Charles Leas
History of the Inquisition:

Up to the twelfth century it was not questioned that the Virgin
was conceived and born in sin With the growth of Mariolotry,
however, there came a popular tendency to regard the Virgin as
free from all human corruption, and towards the middle of the
twelfth century the church of Lyons ventured to place on the
calendar a new feast in honor of the Conception of the Virgin,
the celebration of the Feast of the Conception gradually spread.
Thomas Aquinas tells us that it was observed in many churches,
though not in that of Rome, and that it was not forbidden, but he
warns against the inference that because a feast is holy therefore
the conception of Mary was holy. In fact, he denies the possibility
of her immaculate conception There is a tradition thatthe
University of Parisin 1222declared in its favor by a solemn
decree the Church of Narbonne commenced, in 1327, to
celebrate the Feast of the Conception, and in 1328 the Council of
London ordered its observance in all the churches of the Province
of Canterbury, we see how rapidly the new dogma was spreading.
(Lea, A History of the Inquisition, Vol. 3, pp. 596-598)

Thomas Aquinas repudiated the false doctrine of the Immaculate Conception,
which was apparently the work of Franciscan theologian, John Duns Scotus, who
developed a systematic theology that led to its proclamation as Catholic dogma:
Blessed John Duns Scotus (1265/66 8th November 1308),
besides being known as the Subtle Doctor, is also referred to as
the Marian Doctor. It was he who presented a systematic
theology of the Marian privilege of the Immaculate Conception,
which the Catholic Church officially proclaimed as a Dogma of
Faith in the Apostolic Constitution Ineffabilis Deus of Pope Pius
IX (8th December 1854), of which we are this year celebrating the
150th anniversary. (John Duns Scotus and His Defence of the
Immaculate Conception)
Interestingly, Christianity Today recently published an article promoting the
theology of John Duns Scotus. On January 10, 2008, CT Editor, Philip Yancey,
recommended that evangelicals reconsider the Catholic theology of Duns Scotus:
More than two centuries before the Reformation, a theological
debate broke out that pitted theologian Thomas Aquinas against an
upstart from Britain, John Duns Scotus. In essence, the debate
circled around the question, Would Christmas have occurred if
humanity had not sinned?
Whereas Aquinas viewed the Incarnation as Gods remedy for
a fallen planet, his contemporary saw much more at stake. For
Duns Scotus, the Word becoming flesh as described in the
prologue to Johns Gospel must surely represent the Creators
primary design, not some kind of afterthought or Plan B. Aquinas
pointed to passages emphasizing the Cross as Gods redemptive
response to a broken relationship. Duns Scotus cited passages from
Ephesians and Colossians on the cosmic Christ, in whom all
things have their origin, hold together, and move toward
consummation...
...Though most theologians tended to follow Aquinas, in recent
years prominent Catholics such as Karl Rahner have taken a closer
look at Duns Scotus. Perhaps evangelicals should, too. (Ongoing
Incarnation)
Duns Scotus taught at the University of Paris from 1293 through 1297, when he
was expelled, allegedly for siding with the pope in his feud with King Philip IV of
France. From Paris, the Marian Doctor removed to the University of Oxford.
According to Louis Israel Newman, author of Jewish Influence on Christian
Reform Movements, The scholarly relationship between the Universities of Paris
and Oxford for a long period was very close; it was first interrupted by the
controversies during the time of Wycliffe and afterwards broken off by the wars
in France and the civil wars in England. (p. 90)

Leas History of the Inquisition stated that the Church in England was among the
first to follow suit after the French declared the dogma of the Immaculate
Conception. The Avignonese Popes, all Merovingians who worshipped the Black
Virgin, had devised a clever strategy to impose the pernicious doctrine of the
Immaculate Conception on Christendom:

Juan de Moncon, a Dominican professor in the University of
Paris, taught that the Virgin was conceived in sin. This aroused a
great uproar, and he fled to Avignon from impending
condemnation. Then, at Rouen, another Dominican preached
similar doctrine, and, as we are told, was generally ridiculed. The
University sent to Avignon a deputation headed by Pierre dAilly,
who claimed that the papal decision had been in their favor... The
Dominicans were expelled from all positions in the Sorbonne, and
the Avignonese Clement VII. was too dependent upon France to
refuse a bull proclaiming as heretics Juan and all who held with
him. Charles VI. was persuaded not only to force the Dominicans
of Paris to celebrate every year the Feast of the Conception, but to
order the arrest of all within the kingdom who denied the
Immaculate Conception, that they might be brought to Paris and
obliged to recant before the University
The University of Paris was the stronghold of the new
doctrine The beliefcontinued to spread In 1438 the clergy
and magistrates of Madridmade a vow thereafter to observe the
Feast of the Conception. The next year the Council of
Baslecame to a decision in favor of the Immaculate Conception,
forbade all assertions to the contrary, and ordered the feast to be
everywhere celebrated on December 8, with due indulgences for
attendance
A new article could not be introduced without creating a new
heresy. Here was one on which the Church was divided, and the
adherents on each side denounced the other as heretics and
persecuted them as far as they dared where they had the power. In
this the Dominicans were decidedly at a disadvantage, and their
antagonists had greatly the preponderance and were daily growing
in strength. In 1457, the Council of Avignon, presided over by a
papal legate, the Cardinal de Foix, who was a Franciscan,
confirmed the decree of Basle, and ordered under pain of
excommunication that no one should teach to the contrary (Lea,
A History of the Inquisition, pp. 599-600)

Cardinal de Foix would have been a Merovingian since the Counts of Foix were
descendants of the Merovingian dynasty through Eudes, the Duke of Aquitaine.
The entire region of South France had long been a stronghold of Mariolatry, being
worshippers of the Black Virgin, who was the Egyptian Isis Christianized as
Mary Magdalene. The forcible introduction of Mary-worship into the Catholic
Church, which formerly held no such doctrine, was a veritable tour de force of the
Merovingian papacy at Avignon.

For over a century the Avignon papacy was diligently at work transforming the
Church doctrinally and also setting in motion the events which would divide and
conquer Christendom. This major turning point in Church history, which is
known as the Great Western Schism, began in 1378 with two events: the death of
Pope Gregory XI and the prohibition of passing judgment against John Wycliffe
on the order of the Queen of England, Joan Plantagenet. The corruption of the
Avignon Papacy was not limited to Catholic doctrine; the financial and
administrative corruption of the Papal Court was so flagrant that in retrospect it
seems to have been deliberate in order to provoke the popular revolt which
inevitably followed.

Popes, Cardinals, and officials of the Chancery and Apostolic
Camera appointed bishops, collected taxes, and imposed
disreputable political interdicts and excommunications throughout
much of Christendom with greater abandon than ever before. They
did so in tight association with countless princes and other
representatives of the late medieval Establishment. Bankers were
particularly welcome in their entourage. As Alvaro Pelayo, himself
a fervent supporter of the Holy See, noted in De planctu ecclesiae,
Whenever I entered the chambers of the ecclesiastics of the Papal
Court, I found brokers and clergy engaged in weighing and
reckoning the money which lay in heaps before them. (Pastor, I,
72). / was this the Templar treasure?
A myriad of astonishing abuses, many of them the product of
exceedingly pro-papal canonists influenced heavily by Roman Law
and purely utilitarian power considerations, became associated
with the Avignon administration. Charitable covers for raking in
illicit funds were multiplied. Sees were left vacant or filled in ways
that furthered the increase of gross curial muscle and wealth. Legal
cases were painfully delayed so as to milk more loot from long-
suffering plaintiffs and defendants. And, once again, all this was
done in dangerous cahoots with locally important political and
banker hacks.
Even more destructive was the treatment of diocesan matters
as property rather than pastoral questions. Bishoprics were
assigned either to curial officialsto provide, from their
endowments, salaries the Papacy could not otherwise payor to
friends of political allies whose cooperative behavior needed to be
rewarded. Since it was impossible for papal employees to leave
their governmental positions in Avignon to tend to even one
diocesemuch less the two or more often entrusted to their
misuseepiscopal charges inevitably entailed the same
absenteeism already practiced by the pope himself. Perhaps the
most bizarre long term development from such unfortunate policies
was to be the creation of nominal bishops who were often not
even priests. Lay bishops got the revenues from their property,
and then employed some hireling to do the episcopal tasks they
themselves could not legitimately perform.
...Avignons abuses merely confirmed the convictions of those
who already thought of the Church and her mission as a
blasphemous work of Satan. This was the major reason why her
scandals were so detested by orthodox believers. (The Great
Western Schism)

The outrageous conduct of the Avignon papacy marked the beginning of the
decline of the Roman Catholic papacy.
The kings increasing ability to claim the loyalty of the local
clergy and to collect church taxes helped create several quasi-
national churches that officially were part of the Roman Catholic
Church but were increasingly under royal control. The Babylonian
Captivity, along with the Hundred Years War then going on, also
triggered challenges to papal authority from two other directions:
church councils and popular heresies. (Schism & heresies in late
medieval Europe)
Another factor in the decline of the papacy was the spectacle of warring popes
during the Great Schism. At one point the Church had three popes who
excommunicated one another!! This chaotic state of affairs divided all of Europe
and permanently damaged the authority of the pope:
The Great Schism and Conciliar movement
The resentment that the Babylonian Captivity aroused against
the Church grew worse when the popes tried to move back to
Rome. By the 1370s, the turmoil of the Hundred Years War was
making life at Avignon increasingly dangerous. The capture and
ransoming of Pope Innocent VI by a company of English
mercenaries (who had little use for a French pope, anyway)
convinced Pope Gregory XI to move to Rome. However, at this
time, Rome was a more dangerous place to live in during times of
peace than France was during war. It took Gregory three
attempts to get into Rome, and once he got in, he quickly decided
he wanted to leave and return to Avignon. Unfortunately, Gregory
died before he could get out.
For the first time in 70 years, Rome was the scene of a papal
election, and the Roman mob clamored outside for an Italian
pope. Under such pressure, the College of Cardinals elected an
Italian, Urban VI, as the next pope. Unfortunately, Urban was
something of a violent and bigoted man whose actions drove all
but three cardinals back to Avignon where they elected a second
pope. Thus began the Great Schism, a period of turmoil when the
Church was divided in its loyalty between two lines of popes, one
French and one Italian. To no ones surprise, each pope refused to
recognize the other and even excommunicated him and his
followers. This led to enormous anxiety among devout Christians,
who found themselves supposedly excommunicated by one pope
or the other. With neither pope willing to resign, something had to
be done.
The most popular suggestion was a general church council
such as the ones summoned to solve major disputes in the
past. There were several problems with this solution. First of all,
popes traditionally called such councils, and neither pope was
willing to call such a council. This made the legality of such a
council questionable if not called by at least one pope. Second,
different rulers in Europe supported particular popes, largely for
political reasons. Such political divisions made it almost
impossible to get people to agree on the site of a council, not to
mention the deeper issues involved. Finally, the whole issue of a
Church council raised the question: if a council could depose the
pope, who was the real head of the Church? This was a question
that lingered on long after the Great Schism had faded away.
At last, a council was called at Pisa, Italy in 1409. It deposed
the two rival popes and elected a third. Unfortunately, neither
original pope recognized the councils power to depose a pope, so
now the Church had three popes. However, by this time, people
were committed to the idea of a church council, and another one
was called at Constance, Switzerland. All three popes were
deposed, and a fourth, Martin V, was elected. Although one of the
deposed popes held on in Avignon until 1429, the Great Schism
ended here. Its effects did not, because it caused people all over
Western Europe to question the authority of the pope in the
Church. Although a single pope once again ruled the Church, his
reputation and authority were permanently undermined. (Schism
& heresies in late medieval Europe)
The Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian Church Through Monasticism, of
anonymous authorship, makes a compelling case that the Avignon Papacy was a
planned conspiracy executed by the French monarch, Philip le Bel, who was a
Merovingian. This accords with statements in Merovingian sources that the
Templar Purge was orchestrated for the purpose of downsizing and relocating
the Order to Scotland where they would enjoy the protection of the Saint Clair
family and freedom they did not have on the Continent. In the British Isles, the
Templars, under the protection and leadership of Henry Sinclair, would be at
liberty establish the Order of the Rose Croix, Freemasonry, Unitarianism and
Baptist churches. (See: Anabaptist Unitarians).

Merovingian king, Philip IV (la Belle), who arrested the Templars
on Oct. 13, 1307 and who placed his cousin, Clement V, on the
Chair of Peter as his accomplice, then insisted that the pope remain
in France, rather than Rome. This began what is named the
Babylonian Captivity of the Church, a 68 year period in which the
Church was forced to remain in Avignon France. The next
successive 6 popes would be French and Merovingian, the second
of whom, Clement VI, began formulating the doctrine of
indulgences, which later became the spark of the Protestant
Reformation as planned! The majority of Templars who escaped
the arrest in 1307 went to Scotland which was the first to break
from the Church through the Declaration of Arbroath, the
document on which the 1776 U.S. Declaration was based. One
signatory of the letter to Pope John XXII April 4, 1320 (date
NATO was later formed) was the grandfather of Henry Sinclair,
Earl of Orkney and Shetland Islands for Norway who lived in
Roslin Castle, Scotland. It was he who brought Templar treasure to
Nova Scotia in 1398, 94 years pre-Columbus. The Sinclairs were
bishops of Ross and hereditary Grand Masters of Freemasonry.
(The Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian Church Through
Monasticism)

Prince Michael Stewart is President of the European Council of Princes, said to be
a constitutional advisory body to the European Union. Prince Michael is also the
Knight Grand Commander of the Chivalric Military Order of the Temple of
Jerusalem (Knights Templar), and holds various other titles of high rank in the
Merovingian bloodline. (The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland, pp. 2,
308) According to Prince Michael, following the Templar Purge on the
Continent, the Celtic Church of Scotland welcomed the refugee Knights Templar
who then formed the Order of the Rosy Cross. And the first order of business of
the Knights of the Rosy Cross was...to meet with the Pope at Avignon!!

The established Roman Church may have betrayed the
Templars, but in Scotland they found something far more
trustworthy and tangible: a sacred royal house, and a Priest-King
of the Celtic Church succession. ...the Knights became part of the
Scottish Government as the appointed Royal Bodyguard, with the
Order established as Guardian of the King of Scots by day and by
night... A new order was then formed, called the Elder Brothers of
the Order of the Rosy Cross, and several of the Rosy Cross
Knights then sailed to France for a meeting with Pope John
XXII at Avignon.
Many historians have presumed therefore that the Knights
Templars must have been disbanded in Scotland, but this was not
the case; it was simply that [Robert the] Bruce had contrived the
secret Order to become even more secretive. Indeed, the Order of
the Knights of the Rosy Cross...was a very successful cover. (The
Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland, p. 65)

Having formed the secretive Order of the Rosy Cross in Scotland, the Templars
sent a contingent of Rosy Cross Knights to France for a meeting with the Pope at
Avignon. This is documented with a footnote: The Vatican Archives,
Rome What would prompt the persecuted Templars to return to the very
headquarters of the Catholic Church which had slaughtered so many knights of
their Order? Prince Michael offers this feeble excuse: ...this new Order was not
apparently Templar to outsiders, and since the Pope held the international reins of
Chivalric Orders, a meeting was necessary for registration. Furthermore, the
Pope agreed to issue a Charter so long as his own nephew, Jacques de Via,
became the operative Grand Master. (Stewart, p. 65) Surely this high-level
meeting between the fugitive Templars and the Avignon Pope reeks of collusion.

Also about this time, John Wycliffe, the Morning Star of the Reformation, led
the Lollards of England to foment rebellion against the Avignon Papacy, a
Merovingian front doing their best to destroy public confidence in the Catholic
Church. The purge of the Knights Templar occurred from 1307 to 1314, the same
years the Merovingian Pope and his curia were setting up their new headquarters
in Avignon. John Wycliffe was born in 1327 and entered the political scene
around 1376, at the close of the Avignon Papacy and onset of the Great Schism. Is
this sequence of events mere coincidence or is there evidence that Wycliffe may
have been an agent of the network of the secret societies that Henry Saint Clair
had established on the British Isles? Evidence of Wycliffes Rosicrucian
connections is presented in: The Lollard Movement: John Wycliffe.

There is compelling evidence that the Protestant Reformation was the brainchild
of the Merovingian Jews who functioned as agent provocateurs throughout the
Holy Roman Empire whose ultimatums for reform were met with more flagrant
abuses by the Merovingian popes. Some agents of the Reformation were as
violent as the popes, giving Protestant Christianity a reputation for brutality, as
the Marranos had formerly done within the Catholic Church. (See: The
Reformation: Rosicrucian Connections) Rosicrucian Jeff Nisbet divulged the
brilliant strategy of the Merovingian Jews in Atlantis Rising magazine:
In one fell swoop, the Christian world was cleft in twain. No
longer would Rome be able to raise great armies from its subject
nations to crush heresies wherever the Papal finger pointed. There
was no longer just one big boy on the block. Another had moved
in. The mightiest church the world had ever known had been
divided and conquered.
But the Reformed Church would not be allowed to remain
squeaky clean. The life of Marys grandson, James VI, the
first...king of both Scotland and England, would be threatened by a
plot hatched by witches on Halloween, 1590. The celebrated but
trumped-up case of the North Berwick Witches kick-started
over a century of Scottish witch hunts, and proved that your
average Presbyterian could be just as vindictive as your average
Catholic when it came to fighting Satan's minions. While an
equilibrium had been established between the two great Christian
powers, neither can yet lay claim to being the saintliest, and each
still has that heavy cross of guilt to bear. Another perfect
doublecross, perhaps? (Rosslyn Chapel Revisited)


MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT

CATHOLIC OR JEWISH?

PART III


THE ILLUMINATI

At this point we turn to Pastor John S. Torell of the European-American
Evangelistic Crusades, who elucidates the development of the Illuminati with
greater accuracy than the authorized version which places the origin of this high
cabal late in historyin 1776 with Adam Weishaupts organization. Do not miss
Rev. Torells statement that the Marrano families, that is Jews who converted to
Christianity, survived the Inquisition and are among us today, which may account
for the fabricated Illuminati history that circulates.

The first known Illuminati order (Alumbrado) was founded in
1492 by Spanish Jews, called Marranos, who were also known as
crypto-Jews. With violent persecution in Spain and Portugal
beginning in 1391, hundreds of thousands of Jews had been forced
to convert to the faith of the Roman Catholic Church. Publicly they
were now Roman Catholics, but secretly they practiced Judaism,
including following the Talmud and the Cabala. The Marranos
were able to teach their children secretly about Judaism, but in
particular the Talmud and the Cabala, and this huge group of Jews
has survived to this very day. After 1540 many Marranos opted to
flee to England, Holland, France, the Ottoman empire (Turkey),
Brazil and other places in South and Central America. The
Marranos kept strong family ties and they became very wealthy
and influential in the nations where they lived. But as is the custom
with all Jewish people, it did not matter in what nation they lived,
their loyalty was to themselves and Judaism. (How the World
Government Rules the Nations)

In 1492, Spanish Roman Catholics also expelled the last of the Muslims and Jews
from Spain. The reason for the Spanish Inquisition is buried under a mile high
pile of propaganda remonstrating against the anti-Semitism of the Church. From
1000 to 1200 A.D., the magical/mystical system known as Cabala was developed
mainly by Sephardi (African) Jews, especially in Spain. The Inquisition was not
directed against the Jews for practicing Torah Judaism, but for criminal activities
connected with the Talmud and Cabalaeven ritual human sacrifice and Tantric
sex magick, for the Talmud directs Jews to exterminate Christians and the Cabala
contains erotic elements.

Also in 1492, Christopher Columbus was funded by Jews to explore the New
World in search of a homeland for their persecuted brethren. On August 2 (the
Druid feast of Lugnasha) in 1492, Christopher Columbus set sail for the New
World, sponsored by Leonardo da Vinci (Grand Master of the Prieur de Sion
from 1510-1519) and funded by wealthy Merovingian families like the Medici of
Italy. According to Occult Conspiracy by Michael Howard:

Columbus was associated with a political group that supported the
ideas of Dante, one of the alleged Grand Masters of the Order of
the Rosy Cross, who is known to have used codes and ciphers in
his writings, a practice associated with membership of a secret
society. Columbus voyages of discovery were sponsored by
Leonardo da Vinci and Lorenzo de Medici, both initiates of secret
societies, who found the explorer wealthy patrons among European
Royalty and aristocracy. (p.74)

There is also speculation that Leonardo da Vinci was of Jewish extraction.

The Nobility of a Talented Bastard, Leonardo. Such was the
caption of an article in the important Italian Newspaper, Corriere
della Sera of October 1, 2000. Recent research maintains, the
article begins, that the maestro of Vinci was born of a Jewess who
stemmed from Russia. (Hebrew History Federation)

Likewise, there is evidence that Christopher Columbus was a Jew. The Jewish
scholar, Eliezer Segal, cites Columbus biographer S. de Madariaga and the
Jewish historian Cecil Roth, as providing the most cogent arguments in favor of
this view.

...there has been some weighty scholarly debate over the
possibility that Columbus, though undeniably a devout and zealous
Catholic, might also have been the proud descendant of Spanish
Jews. Ironically, this view has been championed by some patriotic
Spaniards, who would rather have him a Spanish Jew than an
Italian gentile.
There is evidence that Columbus spoke Spanish while still living
in Italy, an unusual situation unless his family had originated in
Spain. Spanish-speaking Jewish refugees from the Inquisition were
numerous in the Genoa area.
The form Coln which Columbus adopted as the Spanish
equivalent of his last name was not the expected form (which
would have been Colom or Colombo). It was however a
common Jewish variation on the name.
Columbus was known to frequent the company of Jews and
former Jews, among whom were some noted astronomers and
navigators, as well as his official translator. Marranos figure
prominently among Columbuss backers and crew. Throughout his
life he demonstrated a keen knowledge of the Bible and the
geography of the Holy Land. In fact in one place he calculates the
date from the destruction of the Second House [=Temple],
counting from the traditional (and erroneous) Jewish date of 68
C.E., rather than the generally held 70...
The connections between the timing of Columbuss voyage and
the expulsion of Spanish Jewry are indeed curious. Historians have
noted that, though Columbus was not scheduled to set sail until
August 3rd, he insisted that his entire crew be ready on board a full
day earlier. The timing becomes more intriguing when we consider
that August 2nd 1492 was the day that had been ordained for the
last Jews of Spain to depart the country. Hundreds of thousands of
Jews were departing Spain on that black day.
When this coincidence of dates was first noted by the Spanish
biographer S. de Madariaga, the English Jewish historian Cecil
Roth supplemented it with a further coincidence: August 2nd
1492 coincided with the Ninth of Av, the Jewish fast of mourning
for the destruction of the Jerusalem Temples! It was as if
Columbus had arranged to remain on board ship for that ill-
omened day, and to depart only afterwards. (Columbus
Medinah?)

Besides Leonardo da Vinci and the Medici, Christopher Columbus was financed
by the House of Anjou, another Jewish family, and specifically, Rene dAnjou of
the Langudoc in France, who was Grand Master of the Prieur de Sion from
1418-1480.

Ren DAnjou sought to promote the advancement of learning
and at one time employed Christopher Columbus. (Holy Blood,
Holy Grail, p.138)

...Ren was, through his Angevin ancestry one of Christs most
prominent living descendants. ...when Ren and Isabel became the
Duke and Duchess of Lorraine, court was held at their castles
throughout Anjou and Provence. These courts included Jewish
cabalists, astrologers and even the physician Jean de Saint-Remy,
grandfather of Nostradamus. In fact, Christopher Columbus was a
member of the Court for a while, and Ren was the person who
gave him his first ships commission to Tunis. (Tracy R.
Twyman, Editor, Dagobert's Revenge)

To the present day, St. Rene DAnjou is venerated as one of the many phallic
saints of France. A website that publishes Sacred Texts on sacred sexuality
provides the abominable details of the worship of Priapus who was the first
Bishop of Lyons. In the south of France, Provence, Languedoc, and the
Lyonnais, [Priapus] was worshipped under the title of St. Foutin... Similar phallic
saints were worshipped under the names of St. Guerlichon, or Greluchon, at
Bourg-Dieu in the diocese of Bourges, of St. Gilles in the Cotentin in Britany, of
St. Rene in Anjou, of St. Regnaud in Burgundy, of St. Arnaud, and above all of
St. Guignol near Brest and at the village of La Chatelette in Berri. Many of these
were still in existence and their worship in full practice in the last century...

It seems that the Jews regarded America as the New Jerusalem:
...Columbus...believed when he landed in America that God had led him to the
New Jerusalem. The idea of America as the fulfilment of a biblical prophecy
concerning the foundation of a spiritual Utopia on Earth was a central belief in the
Rosicrucian philosophy of the seventeenth century. (Occult Conspiracy, p.74)

THE SIX-POINTED STAR

These little known facts of history explain why the Great Seal of the United States
is a highly symbolic representation of Americas designated role as a new Jewish
homeland, with the original 13 colonies representing the 13 tribes of Israel. The
high incidence of 13s in the Great Seal is detailed on the website of the
Philosophical Research Society founded by Manly P. Hall, Masonic author of The
Secret Destiny of America.

The significance of the mystical number 13, which frequently
appears upon the Great Seal of the United States, is not limited to
the number of the original colonies. The sacred emblem of the
ancient initiates, here composed of 13 stars, also appears above the
head of the eagle. The motto, E Pluribus Unum, contains 13
letters, as does also the inscription, Annuit Coeptis. The eagle
clutches in its right talon a branch bearing 13 leaves and 13 berries
and in its left a sheaf of 13 arrows. The face of the pyramid,
exclusive of the panel containing the date, consists of 72 stones
arranged in 13 rows. From Hunts History of the United States
(Gallery of Masonic Symbolism)

In British-Israelism, which is a Judeo-Masonic doctrine, the number 13
symbolizes the 13 tribes of Israel in accordance with the blessing of Jacob (Israel)
upon his sons in Genesis 49. British Israelite teacher, Gene Scott, explains It
must be remembered the Manasseh is the thirteenth tribe. Ephraim moved into
Josephs place and Manasseh was added to the twelve. Furthermore, Scott claims
that the tribe of Manassah founded the United States. When the number of
colonies (lost tribes?) reached 13, the colonists declared independence from Great
Britain as the 13 united States of America:

The United States, being founded as a permanent home by the
Pilgrims (of the tribe of Manasseh), should reflect the emblems of
that tribe. It will be found that the Great Seal of the United States
contains ten features of thirteen. And given that some sixteen
drafts, over a time period of 159 years through which the seal was
constructed, it makes coincidence impossible as an explanation for
those 13s. I know that the easy answer to the fact of all these
thirteens is that there were thirteen original colonies, but this
surface explanation doesnt fit all the evidence. When the facts of
the United States and the Great Seal are viewed in the context of
the whole Lost Tribes teaching, it obviously fits like it belonged.
The coincidence of there being thirteen colonies doesnt add a
whit to the total picture unless it is taken to be part of the [Lost
Tribes] material.

If Christopher Columbus discovered America, why was the continent not named
Columbia or similar eponym? The official legend is that America was named
after an Italian voyager, Amerigo Vespucci, which makes little sense. It will come
as a revelation to many North Americans that the name America probably
derived from Ameru, the serpent-god of South America. Ameru was also
known as Quetzalcoatl to the Aztecs and Viracocha to the people of Central
Andes.

Interestingly, the Book of Mormon claims that Jesus appeared as the god
Quetzalcatl in South America, the New World. However, The Catholic
Churchs conquistadores tried to obliterate all signs of the truth of Jesus-
Quetzalcatl in the New World, by burning the codicesthe written wordbut
they did not destroy them all

One Nephite left the land shortly after Jesus appeared to the
Aztecs as the god Quezalcoatl Upon his arrival in Egypt he took
the name Alexander Helios and set his Liahona's needles for the
land of the Israelites. He was granted honorary membership in the
Essenes of the Qumran Community. At Qumran, Helios performed
a most important job,
Alexander had became chief archivist of the Qumran
community. It was he who dutifully removed all scriptural
references to the Golden Plates (of the Book of Mormon) from the
dead sea scrolls before they were buried. This explains why no
references to Mormonism occur in the Dead Sea scrolls and in any
books of the Holy Bible. The sensitive work was done on
commandment from Jesus and in the presence of the angel Moroni
who appeared to Alexander in 44 A.D. Moroni revealed to
Alexander that the knowledge of the records of Lemon is yet not to
be revealed ...the holy Scrolls of Qumran contain writings that
cannot be revealed unto the world; but is to be had in the Holy
Temple of God, in the full ripeness of time. (The Three
Nephites)

Quetzalcoatl, Ameru and Viracocha corresponded to the Egyptian god, Osiris,
who ruled over the First Time. Hans Jonas wrote in The Gnostic Religion that
Osiris had the ability to walk on the oceans and traveled around the globe
bringing civilization to many nations. Osiris corresponds to the Babylonian
Tammuz, who was Nimrod of Genesis 11. This pagan deity was worshipped in
the wilderness by apostate Israel as Chiun, the Assyrian-Babylonian god of the
planet Saturn (see Amos 5:26; Strongs #3594), and as Tammuz before their
removal to Babylon (Ezek. 8:14).
Strong's Number: 03594
Kiyuwn
Chiun = "an image" or "pillar"
1. probably a statue of the Assyrian-Babylonian god of the planet Saturn and
used to symbolise Israelite apostasy
The god Saturn is represented by the misnamed Star of David, the six-pointed star
which has been the symbol of apostate, Cabalistic Judaism from antiquity to the
present time. [See: The Six-Pointed Star: The Mark of the Beast]

On the Great Seal of the United States there also appears a six-pointed star.
Modern false teachers with Judeo-Masonic leanings tell the tale of an American
Jew who merited the honor of having the symbol of apostate, Cabalistic Judaism
inscribed on the Great Seal of the U.S. Haim Solomons largesse turned the rag
tag outfit of 33 Mason George Washington into the professional army that won
the Revolutionary War. Notice in John Hagees anecdote that some of the
funding for the American Revolution came from European Jews:

America has been blessed by the Jewish community. Let me take
you back to a story of the American revolution and Haim Solomon,
a Philadelphia banker. When George Washington and the
Continental Army were fighting for their very lives in the snows of
Valley Forge, they didnt have enough food to eat, they didnt have
enough weapons, they didnt have enough ammunition to fight the
British; it looked like life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
would never happen. Haim Solomon went to the Jewish people of
America and the Jewish people of Europe and raised millions of
dollars and gave it to George Washington. That contribution turned
the tide of the American revolution. George Washington was so
appreciative of Haim Solomons contribution that he had the
engravers of the American one dollar bill express his appreciation
to the Jewish people by placing this insignia over the head of the
American eagle. It is the Mogan David, the Star of David. In
addition, around the Mogan David is the cloud burst of the
Shekinah Glory of God that was over the Tabernacle. If you turn it
upside down, then you have the Menorah. The contribution the
Jewish people made to assist America in the war effort was one
that George Washington insisted that all Americans know about.
(Christians Supporting Israel)

Modern prophet Rick Joyner, a crypto-Jew if there ever was one, uses the Haim
Solomon anecdote today to $windle Evangelical Christians to $upport the Zionist
cause:

Haim Solomon, a Philadelphia Jewish banker, expended his
personal fortune to support George Washington and the
Continental Army. He did this because he foresaw that the new
American nation would be a haven for persecuted Jews. I also
mentioned previously that I believed if the sum he had given, with
appropriate compounded interest, were repaid to his descendents,
the Jewish people, that it would at least equal the aid that the
United States has given to Israel.
From information I have received, it appears that Haim
Solomon gave nearly $2 million to the support of George
Washington and the Continental Army. This was a huge sum in the
currency of the times, equal to many millions in todays money. To
repay this debt to his heirs, with compounded interest, has been
estimated to be around $4 trillion. I have not been able to confirm
these figures yet, but it seems that they are accepted by a number
of people who have studied this.
Historians also seem to confirm that it is unlikely that George
Washington could have succeeded without the aid from Haim
Solomon. It came at possibly the most critical time of the
Revolutionary War for the Americans, while the Continental Army
was trying to hold together after repeated defeats, and was almost
completely without supplies or other sources of support.
(MorningStar Ministries)

For evidence supporting the above charge of crypto-Jewry, see: Joint Prophecy of
Rabbi Cohen & Rick Joyner at Messiah 99

Was Haim Solomon a real historical character? Probably not. The Hebrew name
Haim means life and, of course, Solomon was the apostate king of Israel, whom
the Masons revere along with his Seal, falsely named the Star of David. Life of
Solomon may be a veiled allusion to the once and future King of Israel who will
reign over a messianic Golden Age.

Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six
hundred threescore and six talents of gold. (1 Kings 10:14)

THE JESUITS

In 1771, John Carroll (1735-1815), a Jesuit priest from a wealthy Maryland
family, became a professed father of the Society of Jesus and a professor at
Bourges in France. In 1781, Fr. Carroll founded the Sulpician Seminary in
Baltimore and in 1789, the year the U.S. Constitution took effect, founded
Georgetown University, a Jesuit institution that was managed by the Sulpician
Order for a period of time. The Sulpicians were a heretical Catholic order whose
headquarters are located on the Zero Meridian in Paris, France. Remarkably, Saint
Sulpice, like his contemporary King Dagobert, converted the Jews of his diocese
en masse to Christianity!

St Sulpice (d. c.647). This contemporary of St Dagobert also has
his feast day on 17 January. He was the second Bishop of Bourges,
which is on the zero meridian of Paris, like Rennes-les-Bains, and
was successful in converting all the Jews of his diocese. He was
the protg of the goldsmith of St Eloi, Grand Vizier of Dagobert I.
The famous seminary and church dedicated to him in Paris
contains the obelisk with the copper line down the centre marking
the exact point of the meridian. St Sulpice, in the grounds of St
Germain-des-Pres (qv), had connections with the Prieur from its
foundation in 1642. (Ean Begg, The Cult of the Black Virgin,
Arkana, 1985, p.110)

Recall that the Zero Meridian is the 33 longitude. To understand the significance
of this meridian see The Lost Tribe of Dan, under Locations C. Territories of
Dan in the Land of Israel.

In 1790, John Carroll was appointed by the Roman Catholic Church to be the first
Bishop of the United States with the task of organizing the Catholic Church in the
new nation. Bishop Carroll encouraged Catholic religious orders to establish
branches in the U.S. and, with the help of George Washington, secured federal
funds to send Catholic missionaries to the western territory. John Carroll became
an archbishop in 1808 and, under his leadership, the Catholic population of the
United States increased from 25,000 to 200,000.

John Carrolls brother, Daniel Carroll, was a framer and signer of the Constitution
and a Mason who participated in laying the Masonic cornerstone of the U.S.
Capitol. The Catholic Encyclopedia entry for Daniel Carroll states: Initially, he
was prevented from becoming involved in Maryland politics by laws that
excluded Catholics from holding public office. Once these laws were repealed in
1776, he was elected to the upper house of the Maryland legislature (1777-1781).
He was a delegate from Maryland to the Continental Congress (1781-1783) and
was one of the signers of the Articles of Confederation (1 Mar 1781).

The Carroll brothers were cousins of Charles Carroll, also a high ranking Mason
as well as the only Roman Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence. All
of the Carrolls, who were colleagues of President George Washington, were
educated at Jesuit institutions: the Jesuit School at Bohemia on Harmons Manor
in Maryland and the Jesuit college at St-Omer in French Flanders. Charles went
on to other Jesuit institutions of higher learning, the college of the Jesuits at
Reims and the College Louis le Grand at Paris. According to a Catholic expose of
Masonic infiltration of the Roman Catholic Church:

In the United States, founded as it was upon Masonic principles,
infiltration is hardly the appropriate word. Charles Carroll, a high
ranking Mason and relative of the USAs first Bishop, had been the
only Catholic to sign the Declaration of Independence. By 1895,
Archbishop Ireland could tell the French: I believe that a divine
mission has been assigned to the Republic of the United States.
That mission is to prepare the world, by example and moral
influence, for the universal reign of human liberty and the rights of
man (cited in Utopia, p. 113). (The Catholic Church and
Globalism, Carey J. Winters, Real Catholicism, 3/98)

How is it that the Vatican, which had an official policy that forbade Roman
Catholics under threat of excommunication from holding membership in Masonic
lodges, and regularly issued papal bulls against Freemasonryhow is it that Pope
Pius VI appointed the Jesuit priest, John Carroll, whose family was deeply
involved in Freemasonry at the highest levels, as the first Bishop of the U.S. with
the charge of founding colleges, of establishing a Catholic hierarchy and generally
organizing the Catholic Church in the new nation? The answer may be found in
the origins of the Jesuits.

In fact the classical land of crypto-Jewry is Spain. Tradition there
has been durable and universal to such an extent that one must
raise the suspicion that a Marranian receptivity is present in the
atmosphere of the land itself. Even at the time of the Romans the
Jews were numerous and influential. Many of them asserted that
they were descended from the aristocracy of Jerusalem, who had
been deported by Titus or by earlier conquerors into banishment.
(Cecil Roth)

By the time of the Reformation, Jewish Cabalists were openly in control of the
papacy, from which they directed Cabalist operations throughout Western
Christendom. (See Reformation popes in our Pope Chart, a work in
progress). Immediately preceding the Reformation, a medieval version of the
Hebrew Roots Movement shook Christendom, aided and abetted by Pope Julius II
(1503-1513):

It is indeed a well-known fact that the Reformation was achieved
by Luther, Calvin and Zwingli, but it is not so well-known that
previously John Reuchlin (1455-1531), Pico de Mirandolas
disciple, shook the Christian conscience by suggesting as early as
1494 that there was nothing higher than hebraic wisdom. And
when in 1509 a renegade Jew, Joseph Pffefferkorn, had the Talmud
seized and finally obtained, after several attempts, the definitive
condemnation of this collective compendium which contains a
thousand years of Jewish wisdom. John Reuchlin did not shrink
from exposing himself to every menace and danger in order to
defend before the Emperor and the Pope the extraordinary value of
the Talmud, whose veritable meaning he had fathomed. Reuchlin
advocated returning to Jewish sources as well as to ancient texts.
Finally, he won his case against the convert Pfefferkorn, who
loudly demanded the destruction of the Talmud. The new spirit
which was to revolutionize the whole of Europe became apparent
with regard to the Jews and the Talmud, wrote the historian
Graetz. (Pinay)

In 1517, Martin Luthers 95 Theses commenced the Reformation and, in 1540,
the Society of Jesus was authorized by Pope Paul III to launch the Counter-
Reformation. James Tragers compendium, The Peoples Chronology, includes
this stunning entry: In 1534 the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) was founded by
Ignatius Loyola (1491-1556) (a Marrano) and five associates (1979, p.176).

Perhaps the most lucid overview of the evolution of the world government is the
previously cited article by Pastor John Torrell, who elaborates on the background
of the founder of the Jesuits.

The following information is going to be a shock to all Roman
Catholics. In 1491 San Ignacio De Loyola was born in the Basque
province of Guipuzcoa, Spain. His parents were Marranos and at
the time of his birth the family was very wealthy. As a young man
he became a member of the Jewish Illuminati Order in Spain. As a
cover for his crypto Jewish activities, he became very active as a
Roman Catholic. On May 20, 1521 Ignatius (as he was now called)
was wounded in a battle, and became a semi-cripple. Unable to
succeed in the military and political arena, he started a quest for
holiness and eventually ended up in Paris where he studied for the
priesthood. In 1539 he had moved to Rome where he founded the
Jesuit Order, which was to become the most vile, bloody and
persecuting order in the Roman Catholic Church. In 1540, the
current Pope Paul III approved the order. At Loyolas death in
1556 there were more than 1000 members in the Jesuit order,
located in a number of nations.
Setting up the Jesuit order, Ignatius Loyola devised an elaborate
spy system, so that no one in the order was safe. If there was any
opposition, death would come swiftly. The Jesuit order not only
became a destructive arm of the Roman Catholic Church; it also
developed into a secret intelligence service. (How the World
Government Rules the Nations)

The fact that the founder of the Society of Jesus, originally called The
Company of Jesus, was a Marrano Jew, should give us pause to reflect and to
reassess the official party line that the Jesuits is a Roman Catholic institution.
As well, to wonder about the source of this propaganda campaign, which is
probably the Illuminati. Pastor Torell adds, While the Popes relied more and
more on the Jesuits, they were unaware that the hardcore leadership were Jewish,
and that these Jews held membership in the Illuminati Order which despised and
hated the Roman Catholic Church. This seems very generous of Rev. Torrell
considering the popes of the Reformation period. [See Pope Chart] The pope who
authorized formation of the Society of Jesus in 1540, as well as the Council of
Trent conducted by the Jesuits from 1545 to 1563 to crush the Reformation, was
quite the reprobate.

According to Life magazine, Pope Paul III (1534-1549) as a
cardinal had fathered three sons and a daughter. On the day of his
coronation he celebrated the baptism of his two great-
grandchildren. He appointed two of his teenage nephews as
cardinals, sponsored festivals with singers, dancers and jesters, and
sought advice from astrologers.

In 2001, the Jesuit Holy Cross College in Worcester, Massachusetts sponsored
Toward a Deeper Understanding of Forgiveness, a seminar which featured
James Bernauer, S.J. as a speaker. A Professor of Philosophy at the Jesuit Boston
College, Bernauer honored St. Ignatius for welcoming Jews into the Society of
Jesus and lauded the fact that his successor was Jewish. (Interesting that
Bernauer is a Jewish surname.)

Ignatiuss devotion to the personal figure of Jesus saved him, and
initially the Society, from a most common prejudice: the view that
Jewish converts to Christianity and their descendants, the so called
New Christians of Spain, were more Jewish than Christian for
they were of impure blood. Such tainted character justified their
exclusion from Church posts and religious orders. Ignatius
courageously resisted ecclesiastical and political pressures and
refused to exclude Jewish converts or their descendants from the
Societys ranks and, thus, some of the most distinguished early
Jesuits were Jewish... the Jesuit historian Francis Sacchini wrote in
1622 that the second general of the Society, James Laynez, had
Jewish ancestry, (After Christendom: The Holocaust and
Catholicisms Current Search for Forgiveness)

The early Generals of the Society of Jesus were suspected of having Jewish
ancestry and ...in 1593...when the 5th General Congregation was about to
open...of the 27 Jesuits who proposed changes to the Constitutions, 25 were of
either Jewish or Moorish descent. This would account for the Jesuits partiality
toward the Jews: ...the Jesuits...were then against the Inquisition... In this case
the organisation of St. Ignatius founded for the defence of the Church against her
enemies was led astray and occasioned to be exactly the opposite, to oppose the
Inquisition, which represented the principal defence of the Church and to tolerate
its enemies. (Pinay, p.617)

Roman Catholics should ponder the fact that, if this Company of Cabalist Jews
was mobilized to quash the Reformation, then the Protestants were, in reality,
fleeing the High Cabal of crypto-Jewry which controlled all of Europe through
their religious front, the Roman Catholic Church. That God was delivering His
people, true Christians, from this Synagogue of Satan is the only honest
explanation for the Reformation.

A Biography of Ignatius Loyola states that, during his lifetime, there were
suspicions of Ignatius Hebrew ancestry which, of course, the good saint abjured:

[The Jesuits] were begun by a group of Spanish Christians, at a
time when the reconquest of Spain from the Moslems was but
recently accomplished, and persons with Moorish or Jewish
ancestry were under suspicion. It is accordingly much to their
credit that the Jesuits were firmly opposed (particularly under
Ignatius and his first three successors as Superior General of the
Jesuits) to ecclesiastical anti-Semitism and to the Inquisitions
persecution of suspected Jews. When Ignatius was accused of
having partly Jewish ancestry, he replied, If only I did! What
could be more glorious than to be of the same blood as the
Apostles, the Blessed Virgin, and our Lord Himself?

A Chronology of the Life of St. Ignatius which reveals his devotion to the Black
Virgin attests to his membership in the Illuminati: Iigo went continuously to
Montserrat to confess...Montserrat, a Marian shrine (Black Virgin of ~) is a well
known site of pilgrimage... Iigo and his band of companions were rumoured to
be Illuminists (Alumbrados), members of a movement condemned by the
Inquisition. Interrogations and arrest (17 days, no explanation) followed. Spiritual
Exercises suspected to be heretical. To comprehend the devotion of the
Illuminati high cabal, the Prieur de Sion, to the Black Virgin, including
Montserrat in Spain, the reader is referred to our report The False Gospel in the
Stars.

Ignatius managed to escape the Inquisition probably due to the fact that, in the
15th century, the papacy was securely in the hands of the Jewish Cabalists.


THE MEDICI

Towards the end of the XIIIth century the Anjou, who ruled
Naples, introduced a general conversion of Jews in their
neighbourhood of the city of Trani. Under the name new-converts
(neophytes) the proselytes continued to live for three hundred
years as crypto-Jews. Their secret loyalty to Judaism was one of
the motives for which reason the Inquisition became active in
Naples in the 16th century Some escaped to the Balkans, where
they joined themselves with the existing Jewish communities.
Their descendants in south Italy still preserve some vague
memories of Judaism up to the present day. (Cecil Roth)

During the Renaissance, the Medici oligarchy revolutionized the political and
religious climate of Europe and Italy became a major catalyst for disseminating
the occult traditions throughout Europe in the guise of Neo-Platonism. In the 15th
century, the Medici funded the Academy of Florence, Italy to spread Hermetic
Cabalism and to infiltrate the Vatican with this heresy. Several of the Medici
became popes and cardinals. Giulio de Medici (1478-1534) would become Pope
Clement VII, Alessandro de Medici (1535-1605) was Pope Leo XI and Giovanni
de Medici, Pope Leo X (1513-1521).

Lorenzo the Magnificent was the leader of Florence during the Renaissance. His
second son, Giovanni, became Pope Leo X at age 7 (they must have had big plans
for Giovanni!). Leo X was the pope who excommunicated Martin Luther and also
bestowed upon Henry VIII the title of Defender of the Faith. Leo managed to
bankrupt the Vatican owing mainly to his program of completely rebuilding St.
Peters Basilica. As for his personal expenses, He spent only eight thousand
ducats ($18,400) per month on his table! For his inauguration festival Leo spent
100,000 ducats, 1/7th of the treasury that [Pope] Julius left. (Popedom) To
recoup Church revenues, Leo instituted the sale of indulgences, the issue that
precipitated the Protestant Reformation. In The Last Pope, John Hogue wrote of
Giovanni de Medicis renovation of the Vatican in the style of the High
Renaissance:

Leo was a good administrator, a shrewd politician and at first it
appears he was even chaste, until he revealed his fondness for little
boys... [he spent] the bulk of his seven-year pontificate lavishing
millions of ducats on the arts, legendary banquets and his
grandiose building projects...on the construction of a new St.
Peters Basilica, which he intended to be the greatest church in
Christendom. The popes ears were deaf to the protests of his
priests as he blessed the demolition of old St. Peters with all of its
priceless early Christian art treasures.
Bramantes design for the new St. Peters soon became Leos
greatest money pit. [Pope] Julius treasury was emptied, and even
the booming business from 10,000 whores servicing a citizenry of
50,000 in the papal brothels of Rome could not finance the raising
of St. Peters dome closer to heaven...
...the new basilica built in the Apostles name could not be
finished unless he expanded the indulgence scheme beyond all
previous excesses of Sixtus IV. An army of Christian priestly
soldiers was issued from Rome, not to gather souls, but to bankroll
a crusade to hoodwink the simple people throughout Europe into
thinking that they could purchase themselves and their dearly
departed a bargain ticked to Heaven. Salvation on the cheap.
(pp.144-6)

Donato Bramante, the greatest architect of the Renaissance, did the fundamental
work of rebuilding St. Peters Basilica, which work was later carried on by
Michelangelo. The new St. Peters would reflect the new religion brought to
Europe during the Renaissance, which was Neo-Platonism. In the rebuilt basilica,
Michelangelos Pieta appears to be around twenty years of age, and therefore
cannot be the mother of Jesus, but Mary Magdalene. In planning St. Peters,
Bramante envisioned a church based upon a Greek cross (having arms of equal
length) and surmounted by a great dome.

According to The Sign of the Cross, an essay in the Hermetic Library, The
equal armed cross (+) was used to represent the four cardinal directions, elements,
colors of mankind (Hopi lore), as well as the Four Heavens of Zoroaster and its
later variation in Jewish Qabbalah. When circled it became the four seasons,
stages of life, and all of the associations of life, death, and re-birth.

Additionally, the author, Mark Stavish, provides insight into the peculiar tradition
of making the sign of the cross (of which the Canons of Hippolytus tell the
Christian: Sign thy forehead with the sign of the cross in order to defeat Satan
and to glory in thy Faith).

In his work, The Nature and Use of Ritual, Roche de Coppens
quotes a masonic-rosicrucian document in which Bishop
Theodotus states:
When we say In the Name of the Father and place our fingers on
the forehead, we actually point to an important organ in our
spiritual body just below the space where God dwells in us on
high. The vibrations set up in motion by our loving thought about
our heavenly Father activates the Divine Essence of the Crown
which pours into our Heart center as a veritable though unseen
Glory (Shaft of White Light). This activation of the Crown itself
is described by St. Peter: Ye shall receive a Crown of Glory.
When we say; And of the Son and place our fingers on our heart,
we again actually point to a space in our spiritual body where the
Divine Light, in the words of the Prophet Isaiah poured upon us
from on high, is activating another spiritual organ suffusing us
with the Divine Love of the Son. And when we say: And of the
Holy Spirit, touching our right and left breast respectively, we
activate these spiritual sensoria within us which manifest as the
creative and vitalizing power of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Finally, when we say: "Amen and join our hands together,
mentally affirming the presence of the Triune God within us, we
actually close the spiritual currents within the periphery of our
spiritual body in order to maintain this awakening to spiritual
awareness as long as possible. (S.R.I.A. Documents)

The Merovingian dynasty were the masterminds behind the Renaissance: Ren
[dAnjou] was the Angevin monarch who, at the time of the renaissance, single-
handedly spearheaded a Hermetic revival in Europe. It was he who personally
convinced Cosimo de Medici to translate many ancient texts such as the Corpus
Hermeticum into various European tongues for the first time ever... The Angevins
were primarily advocates of the Regia, or Royal Art, of hermeticism; a tradition
which according to legend was passed down to man by a race of fallen angels.

Anjou (pronounced an Jew!) was a Jewish province in France. The term
Angevin or Angevine is the name applied to two distinct medieval dynasties
that originated from Anjou. Angevin/Angevine is also associated with angels,
which may explain why this Jewish bloodline had more than just a passing
interest in the writings of the Nephilim. The Angevins were a senior branch (angel
+ vine) of the Merovingian bloodline whose members viewed themselves as
divine descendants of the fallen angels of Genesis 6. The Jesus-Mary Magdalene
bloodline heresy is really the exoteric doctrine of the Merovingian race, and an
occult blind for religious masses; the esoteric doctrine, known only to the
initiated, is the descent of the Merovingian race from the fallen angels of Genesis
6. Which explains why the founder of the dynasty, King Merovee, is said to have
been sired by mysterious sea beast, Pallas or i.e. the beast out of the sea, per Rev.
13:1. A book titled King John 1167-1216 by W. L. Warren, depicts the Angevins
as literally having demonic ancestry:

The violent temper of the Angivins, their vicious reaction being
thwarted, was almost pathological in its intensity... From the
Devil they came, growled St. Bernard, and to the Devil they will
return. There were many who agreed with him. Popular gossip
told of their descent from a devilish ancestress...

In his book, The Top Thirteen Illuminati Bloodlines, Fritz Springmeier connected
the Medici with other Merovingians as co-founders of the Prieur de Sion:

The original start of the Prieur de Sion appears to have been the
idea of a number of powerful bloodlines, and included various
descendents of the Merovingians, including the House of Lorraine,
the House of Guise, the Medicis, Sforzas, the Estes, the Gonzagas,
and the St. Clairs (Sinclairs). The Medicis are tied to the Black
Nobility also.
From the beginning the Prieur de Sion has been committed to
Hermetic Magic... Ren d Anjou, a descendant of the
Merovingians persuaded Cosimo de Medici to establish in c. 1444
a non-church library at San Marco where Plato, Pythagorean
works, and books on Hermetic Magic were translated. Up until this
time, the Catholic church had control of all the libraries. It was
from Cosimo de Medicis library that the spark of Greek and
Egyptian teachings set off what developed into the Renaissance,
which was a revival of humanism and the occult. It appears that
during the Middle Ages, witchcraft and the mystery religions had
seriously dissolved to the point that these modes of thought had to
be relearned from the ancient writings. Interestingly, the Middle
Ages when witchcraft and paganism were dissolving have been
branded the Dark Ages by the establishment, and inaccurately
painted as a time when learning went out. (p.79)

The Prieur de Sion is the secret society in Paris which oversees all other secret
societies. It is the mysterious Illuminati, which had its origins in the Society of
Ormus which was birthed in Alexandria, Egypt, whence it relocated to Calabria,
Italy. (The terms Illuminati and Ormus both mean illumined or enlightened.)
These were the Calabrian monks who, in 1070 AD, removed to Ardennes Forrest
in France, and settled on the domains of Godfroi de Bouillon on land owned by
St. Bernard of Clairvaux, founder of the Cistercians and author of the Rule of the
Templars. A procession of Illuminati is discernible throughout history, from
ancient Egypt, whence the apostate Jews (Therapeutae and Essenes) of
Alexandria founded schools of Gnosticism.

A recent PBS documentary about the infamous Medici family was titled The
Medici: Godfathers of the Renaissance. According to the series, the Medici were
the original Mafia which rose to power with all the finesse of Italian mobsters.

The Medici didnt start out as the most powerful family in
Italy. Other families were just as rich, and just as ambitious. But no
one knew more about getting ahead - and staying ahead - than the
Medici. They clawed their way to the top, sometimes through
bribery, corruption and violence. Those who stood in their way
could end up humiliated - or dead... Governing Florence like a
medieval mafia, the power of the Medici stretched all the way to
Rome, where even the papacy was something to be bought and
sold. They were the Godfathers of the Renaissance.
The Medici created a lucrative partnership with another
medieval power, the Catholic Church. In what had to be one of the
most ingenious enterprises of all time, the Medici bank collected
10% of your earnings for the Church. If you couldnt pay, you
faced excommunication - a one-way ticket to hell. The Pope
himself had a massive overdraft, and the Medici bank became the
most profitable business in Europe. By 1434, half the banks
revenue came from the Rome branch, which was in fact little
more than a mobile bank that followed the Pope around the world.
Papal connections gave the Medici bank immense power, soon
everyone wanted an account with the Popes personal bank. On
one occasion the nomination of a new bishop was delayed, until
his father - a Cardinal - had repaid their debts to the Medici bank.
And the Medici kept ahead of their banking rivals because of the
invention of limited liability. Giovanni di Bicci had set up a
franchise system, where regional branch managers shared a stake
in the business. Giovanni also banned loans to princes and kings,
who were notoriously bad investments. Consequentially, the
Medici business remained in the black while its competitors lost
fortunes. (The Medici)

Special research projects are now being undertaken to translate and publish
documents from the Archives of the Medici Grand Dukes of Tuscany (1537-
1743), which are housed in the Archivio di Stato in Florence. One major project is
the Jewish Initiative in the area of Jewish History, Religion and Culture. The
Jews and the Medici affirms that while the Medici were in power, from 1537 to
1737, Jews were well protected in Tuscany, the region of northern Italy where
Florence, the centre of the Renaissance, is located. This alone suggests that the
Renaissance was actually a revival of Jewish culture, and in particular, Hermetic
Cabalism.

The fate of Tuscan Jewry in the early modern period was
inextricably linked to the favor and the fortune of the House of
Medici. Though a Jewish presence was registered in Lucca as early
as the ninth century and a network of Jewish banks had spread
throughout the region by the mid-fifteenth, the organized Jewish
communities of Florence, Siena, Pisa and Livorno were political
creations of the Medici rulers. And like the Medici Grand
Dukedom itself, these communities took shape in the course of the
sixteenth century.
In the 1490s, under the Catholic theocracy of Fra Girolamo
Savonarola, both the Medici and the Jews were expelled from
Florentine territory. When the Medici returned to power in 1512,
the Jewish ban fell into abeyance, until the next expulsion of the
Medici in 1527. In 1537 Cosimo deMedici seized definitive
control of the Florentine government and reorganized it as a
princely statethe Dukedom (later Grand Dukedom) of Tuscany.
This state flourished for two hundred years, under seven successive
Medici rulers: Cosimo I, 1537-1574; Francesco I, 1574-1587;
Ferdinando I, 1587-1609; Cosimo II, 1609-1621; Ferdinando II,
1621-1670; Cosimo III, 1670-1723; Gian Gastone, 1723-1737.
As a sovereign prince, Cosimo I was free to dictate new terms
of Jewish resettlement according to his own best interests and
those of his regime. Coming from a merchant family himself,
Cosimo I recognized the vast potential of Jewish capital and
Jewish entrepreneurship, dispersed by the Iberian expulsion of the
1490s. By the mid-1540s, less than ten years after he gained the
throne, Cosimo I began recruiting affluent Spanish and Portuguese
Jews for resettlement in his capital city of Florence and his chief
port city of Pisa. At the same time, many displaced Italian Jews
who were neither bankers nor wealthy merchants came to Tuscany
as well, particularly after the final expulsion of the Neapolitan
community in 1540 and the creation of ghettos in the Papal cities
of Rome and Ancona in 1555. (Medici Archive Project)

Not only are the Medici archives being unearthed...according to the Discovery
Channel, No fewer than 50 members of the family that dominated the Florentine
Renaissance are to be exhumed in the attempt to unveil their last secrets, Italian
authorities have announced.... Starting from June, corpses will be removed from
the monumental tombs in the Medici Chapels at Michelangelos church of San
Lorenzo in Florence, allowing scientists to reconstruct the dynastys genetic
make-up and their real family tree.

What sinister motive lies behind reconstructing the genetic composition of this
medieval oligarchy? We have already identified the Medici as members of the
Merovingian bloodline, which claims to be direct descendants of the house of
David. It seems that genetics research is now being conducted to determine
Jewish descent, and even to identify and locate the lost tribes of Israel.

The June 6, 2000 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
(PNAS) published a study by scientists from the U.S., Israel, England, ITALY,
and South Africa which showed that Jewish and Middle Eastern non-Jewish
populations share a common pool of Y-chromosome biallelic haplotypes that is
not found in non-Jews outside of the Middle East. According to the study, despite
the complex history of Jewish migration in the Diaspora (starting with the
Assyrian captivity in 722 B.C.), Jewish communities have generally not
intermarried with non-Jewish populations. Due to their isolation, Jewish men
from different regions of the world share the same genetic signatures in their Y
chromosome, which differs significantly from non-Semitic men.

The Center For Cohanim, Jerusalem, discovered a Cohen Modal Hapoltype
(CMH) which is purported to be the standard genetic signature of the Cohen
family who claim to be of the Tribe of Levi, the ancient priestly line of Israel:

...genetic studies of diverse present day Jewish communities show
a remarkable genetic cohesiveness... A common geographical
original can be seen for all mainstream Jewish groups studied.
Using the CMH as a DNA signature of the ancient Hebrews,
researchers are pursuing a hunt for Jewish genes around the world.
This could have ramifications in the search for the Biblical Ten
Lost Tribes. Using the genetic markers of the Cohanim as a
yardstick, these genetic archaeologists are using DNA research to
discover historical links to the Jewish people. (Aish HaTorah)

THE SABBATEANS

The Medici political dynasty ruled Italy from 1537 to 1737. In 1665 there were
reports of the arrival of the Messiah in the person of Shabbetai Zvi. A Turkish
Jew of Spanish descent, Shabbetai Zvis prophecies, visions and miracles
deceived more than half of world Jewry that he was the promised messiah.
Livorno, Italy, in Medici-ruled Tuscany was just one of the communities which
sent an envoy to Smyrna to pay homage to the messianic king. In April of
1666, many Jewish families traveled to Livorno from Rome, Verona and
Germany to embarque to find their Messia. Although the English
Millenarianists were greatly responsible for agitating Jewish hysteria with false
messianic hopes, it appears that the Jewish Zionists manipulated the Protestants,
who knew the Bible foretold the return of the Jews to Israel, to prematurely regain
their lost inheritance:

During the first half of the seventeenth century some extravagant
notions of the near approach of the Messianic time, and more
especially of the redemption of the Jews and their return to
Jerusalem, were set forth by Christian writers and entertained by
Jews and Christians alike. The so-called apocalyptic year was
assigned by Christian authors to the year 1666. This belief was so
predominant that Manasseh b. Israel in his letter to Cromwell and
the English Parliament did not hesitate to use it as a motive for his
plea for the readmission of the Jews into England, remarking that
the opinions of many Christians and mine do concur herein, that
we both believe that the restoring time of our Nation into their
native country is very near at hand (see Grtz, Gesch. x., note 3,
pp. xxix. et seq.). (Jewish Encyclopedia)

Shabbetai Zvi (1626-76) was a practitioner of Cabala, according to the Jewish
Encyclopedia, with its asceticism, and its mortification of the body, whereby its
devotees claimed to be able to communicate with God and the angels, to predict
the future, and to perform all sorts of miracles. This false messiah was only one
of many practicing Cabalists who have impressed the Jews through the centuries
with their magical abilities. Adepts of Cabala were called Masters of the Name
or Baal Shems, the designation of certain magicians who were believed to work
miracles through the name of God. Belief in the miraculous power of the Sacred
Name has a 2,000 year old history; but the designation Baal Shem seems to
have originated only with the German-Polish Jews when they became acquainted
with the Lurianic school of practical Cabala. Nesta Webster described in her
work, Secret Societies and Subversive Movements: how the miracles and fame of
the Baal Shem eventuated in the widespread acceptance of a false messiah:

Since the sixteenth century the great mass of Jewry had settled
in Poland, and a succession of miracle-workers known by the name
of Zaddikim or Baal Shems had arisen. The latter word, which
signifies Master of the Name, originated with the German Polish
Jews and was derived from the Cabalistic belief in the miraculous
use of the sacred name of Jehovah, known as the
Tetragrammaton.
According to Cabalistic traditions, certain Jews of peculiar
sanctity or knowledge were able with impunity to make use of the
Divine Name. A Baal Shem was therefore one who had acquired
this power and employed it in writing amulets, invoking spirits,
and prescribing cures for various diseases. Poland and particularly
Podoliawhich had not yet been ceded to Russiabecame thus a
centre of Cabalism where a series of extraordinary movements of a
mystical kind followed each other. In 1666, when the Messianic
era was still believed to be approaching, the whole Jewish world
was convulsed by the sudden appearance of Shabbethai Zebi, the
son of a poulterer in Smyrna named Mordecai, who proclaimed
himself the promised Messiah and rallied to his support a huge
following not only amongst the Jews of Palestine, Egypt, and
Eastern Europe, but even the hard-headed Jews of the Continental
bourses. Samuel Pepys in his Diary refers to the bets made
amongst the Jews in London on the chances of a certain person
now in Smyrna, being acclaimed King of the World and the true
Messiah. (Case of Sabbatai Zevi)

In September of 1666, as many Jews from Europe were making pilgrimages to
meet their messiah, the Turkish sultan, Mohammed IV, having learned of
Shabbetai Zvis treasonous activities, put the would-be messiah to a test,
whereupon he promptly converted to Islam and denied his messianic claimsto
the shock and disillusionment of nearly the entire Jewish Diaspora.

...Shabbethai, who was an expert Cabalist and had the temerity to
utter the Ineffable Name Jehovah, was said to be possessed of
marvelous powers, his skin exuded exquisite perfume, he indulged
perpetually in sea-bathing and lived in a state of chronic ecstasy.
The pretensions of Shabbethai, who took the title of King of the
Kings of the Earth, split Jewry in two; many Rabbis launched
imprecations against him and those who had believed in him were
bitterly disillusioned when, challenged by the Sultan to prove his
claim to be the Messiah by allowing poisoned arrows to be shot at
him, he suddenly renounced the Jewish faith and proclaimed
himself a Mohammedan. (Ibid.)

Notwithstanding his profession of belief in Islam, Shabbetai Zvi did not actually
embrace the Islamic faith but, in the tradition of his Marrano forefathers,
proceeded to function as a spiritual cross-dresser and double agent:

His conversion, however, appeared to be only partial, for at times
he would assume the role of the pious Mohammedan and revile
Judaism; at others he would enter into relations with Jews as one of
their own faith. By this means the he retained the allegiance both
of Moslems and of the Jews. (Ibid.)

Meanwhile Sabbatai secretly continued his plots, playing a
double game. At times he would assume the role of a pious
Muslim and revile Judaism; at others he would enter into relations
with Jews as one of their own faith. Thus in March, 1668, he
pronounced anew that he had been filled with the Holy Spirit at
Passover and had received a revelation. He, or one of his followers,
published a mystic work addressed to the Jews in which the most
fantastic notions were set forth, e.g., that he was the true Messiah,
in spite of his conversion, his object being to bring over thousands
of Muslims to Judaism. To the sultan he said that his activity
among the Jews was to bring them over to Islam. He therefore
received permission to associate with his former coreligionists, and
even to preach in their synagogues. He thus succeeded in bringing
over a number of Muslims to his Kabbalistic views, and, on the
other hand, in converting many Jews to Islam, thus forming a
Judaeo-Turkish sect whose followers implicitly believed in him...
Although rather little is known about them, various groups
called Donmeh (Turkish for apostate) continue to follow Sabbatai
Zevi today. Estimates of the numbers vary up to 15,000, mostly in
Turkey with some in Greece. (Wikipedia)

The antinomian philosophy of Shabbetai Zvi is the subject of an article titled
Deutsch Devils by Israeli journalist, Barry Chamish, who cites other Jewish
sources, beginning with 50 Jewish Messiahs by Jerry Rabow, while interjecting
his own comments (**). (This is not an endorsement of Barry Chamish.)

[Shabatai Zvi] declared that the coming of the messianic era
meant that the biblical commandments were no longer binding. He
proclaimed that God now permitted everything.

** This is Rabbi Antelmans central assertion; that Shabbataism
was the polar opposite of Judaism. That Shabatai Zvis program
was to destroy all the tenets of the Torah and replace them with
their opposites. Incredibly, more than half the Jews of the world at
the time, believed he would be revealed as their promised messiah:
**. . .

pp 101 - Then he finally made the announcement for which the
Jewish community had been waiting for 1600 years - he would
begin the Redemption on the 15th day of the month of Sivan, June
18, 1666

** The Shabatai followers continued their hidden life in the
Turkish sect of the Donmeh, whose activities continue to this day,
as reported extensively this year, even by the staid Jerusalem
Post...**

pp 121 - The Donmeh now converted the Shabbatain Purim into
an annual orgy, when members exchanged spouses for a ceremony
called extinguishing the lights. The Donmeh justified their Purim
orgies, and their regular practise of sharing wives and engaging in
other sexual activities, by citing biblical precedents.

Here is an example of how signs and lying wonders are able to deceive the
religious masses, even though the miracle worker has flagrantly denied the
faith, violated the trust of his followers and exhibited a reprobate character. Moral
liberation is often the rallying call of false prophets, the foremost prophet of
antinomianism being Aleister The Beast Crowley, whose Book of the Law
codified the moral values of the occult by reducing them to a single illusory
precept: Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

Shabbetai Zvi was also a prototype of the Antichrist, who will be a vile person
(Dan. 11:21) and practitioner of Cabbalistic magick and whose miracles will
deceive the Jews with even greater success. The Antichrist will be an adept in the
occult traditions, possessing hidden knowledge (gnosis) and all the power of
Satan for his supernatural displays of witchcraft:

And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are
come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding
dark sentences, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but
not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall
prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy
people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper
in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace
shall destroy many. Daniel 8:23-25 (KJV)

And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion:
and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great
authority. - Rev. 13:2 (KJV)

THE FRANKISTS

Following the death of Shabbati Zevi, one of his disciples, Jacob Frank (1726-91),
perpetuated the Sabbatean movement which continued to sponsor large numbers
of Jewish converts to Roman Catholicism as well as Islam, thereby establishing
an extensive network of crypto-Jewry. Jewish infiltrators of Roman Catholicism
and Islam outwardly feigned reverence for the forms and doctrine of their adopted
religions, which they had every intention of undermining from within the camp.
According to Ben Zion Wacholder, Ph.D. author of Jacob Frank and the Frankist
Hebrew Zoharic Letters, Frank was a radical antinomian Kabbalist who had
led a sect known as the Zoharites. Jacob Franks letters to his disciples were
instructions for destroying Christianity:

Frank foresaw the doom of Europes Jewry unless the Jews
adopted the holy faith of Edom, i.e. Christianity. The conversion
to Christianity, however, was to serve as an instrument leading to
Christianitys ultimate defeat. The patriarch Jacob, reincarnated as
Frank, was destined to rise as Israels leader in its war against
Edom...
Frank says that anyone who is truly a descendant of the
patriarchs must undergo baptism in order to merit the consolations
announced by the prophets of old. But for the discerning, he
announces Jacobs ultimate victory over Esau on the way to Zion.
This appears to be the meaning of the statement that anyone who
accepts the faith of Rome...will merit the consolations promised by
Isaiah and all the prophets. Conversion to Christianity was a
necessary, if evil, prerequisite for Israels redemption. (Donmeh-
West)

Barry Chamishs articles corroborate Rev. Torells assertion that the old Marrano
families are still with us today and that Jewish infiltrators are strategically placed
in political and religious institutions expressly for the purpose of implementing
the Illuminist (Judeo-Masonic) agenda. By way of Rabbi Antelman, Chamish also
divulged the Frankists modus operandi, namely, through false conversions and
phony renunciations of Judaism, gaining the trust of the ecclesiastical powers
which obtained for them the protection of the State to carry out their seditious
plans:

pp 123 - Although Jacob Frank (1726-1791) was born fifty years
after the death of Shabbatai Zvi, he deserves to be regarded as
Shabbatais true successor.

pp 125 - Franks followers requested ecclesiastic protection on
the grounds that their own beliefs were not Jewish but rather, anti-
Talmudist...The bishop declared that the anti-Talmudists,
Franks followers, were entitled to practise their religion, and
ordered that all copies of the Talmud within his diocese be seized
and burned. Now under the protection of the crown, adoring
followers gave Frank huge donations to his movement.

pp 127 -...Frank convinced his followers that the only way for
their special form of Judaism to survive was for them to outwardly
become Christians, just as the Donmeh had descended into the
world of Islam...In February, 1759, the Frankists told the Church
they were ready to be baptized...The Frankists promised to deliver
5000 new Christians from Poland, Moravia, Hungary and Turkey.

Still quoting Rabbi Antelman, Deutsch Devils now transitions from the
religious initiatives of the Sabbateans and Frankists to the political agenda
of Jacob Frank.

pp 130 - The Frankists also became involved in international
political intrigue, and sent secret emissaries to the Russian
government and the Eastern Orthodox Church offering to help in
the overthrow of Poland and the Catholic Church...By 1786, Frank
suffered temporary financial problems, and moved his court to
Offenbach, near Frankfurt. There Franks money problems were
somehow solved. The source of Franks immense wealth is not
clear. He may have used his movements system of secret
messengers and clandestine cells to engage in the constant political
turmoil involving Austria-Hungary, Turkey and the Balkans.

It seems that Jacob Frank then began collaborating with Adam Weishaupt, the
Jewish Jesuit who is generally believed to have founded the Illuminati in 1776,
although this is not quite the case. The parents of Adam Weishaupt were
Marranos who had converted from Judaism to Roman Catholicism and enrolled
their son in Jesuit training. The reader will notice that Weishaupt, a Jesuit, named
his organization after the Illuminati order founded by the Alumbrado to which the
founder of the Jesuits, Ignatius of Loyola, belonged. It is a common practice of
conspiratorial organizations to slink underground when exposed or discredited,
and create new fronts in order to diffuse public perception of the greater
conspiracy which is still intact. Rev. John Torell has explained the evolution of
the Illuminati which created different fronts that were custom-designed for
Marrano activity, having at first a Roman Catholic facade, and then a political
front.

In order for the reader to understand that events do not just
happen... The Illuminati Order was not invented by Adam
Weishaupt, but rather renewed and reformed. The first known
Illuminati order (Alumbrado) was founded in 1492 by Spanish
Jews, called Marranos, who were also known as crypto-Jews....
In 1491 San Ignacio De Loyola was born in the Basque province of
Guipuzcoa, Spain. His parents were Marranos and at the time of
his birth the family was very wealthy. As a young man he became
a member of the Jewish Illuminati Order in Spain. As a cover for
his crypto Jewish activities, he became very active as a Roman
Catholic... In 1539 he had moved to Rome where he founded the
Jesuit Order... (How the World Government Rules the Nations)

THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD

Jesuit Adam Weishaupt and Sabbatean Jacob Frank, both having established
viable subversive movements, were at that point, if they had not been heretofore,
bankrolled by another Cabalist Jew, Meyer Amschel Rothschild, toward the end
of subverting traditional Judaism, as well as Christianity:

...the Jewish Cabalistic leaders were able to establish a control
over all world banking through the Rothschild family, and...the
political power was captured through the work of Adam
Weishaupt. Here is how it was done: Meyer Amschel (a
rabbinically trained German Jew who later took the name
Rothschild) was firmly established in the German city, Frankfurt
am Main, with an emerging banking house as early as 1764. The
leader of the Cabala at that time, Jakob Frank (a Polish born Jew
with the family name of Leibowicz) lived in the German city of
Offenbach (just south of the city of Frankfurt) from 1773. Johann
Adam Weishaupt (from a Jewish family that had converted to the
Roman Catholic Church) was at Ingolstadt in 1770, a German city
in Bavaria. With these three men, the stage was set to ignite a hell
fire that would forever bring changes to the world.
At this point in time, it is not known who supervised these
three Jewish men, but it is obvious that someone directed their
efforts. On May 1, 1776, just two months before the Declaration of
Independence in America, the Order of Illuminati was founded by
Weishaupt. At this time Weishaupt was 28 years old, Amschel was
32 years old and Frank was 50 years old. Meyer Amschel financed
Adam Weishaupt and Jakob Frank laid the cabalisic theological
foundation for the Order of the Illuminati. (Ibid.)

We believe that the august body directing this evil triumvirate from behind the
scenes was the Prieur de Sion, just as presently the secret societies are organized
and work in harmony under the direction of this high cabal. Before his
incarceration in a federal prison, Fritz Springmeier wrote in The Top 13 Illuminati
Bloodlines: The Prieur de Sion - the Elders of Sion also relates to the
Rothschilds who are reported to serve on a Jewish council of Elders of Sion...
(p.152) Springmeier referenced George Armstrongs book, The Rothschild Money
Trust, p. 196, which states That is the present objective of Jeroboam Rothschild
and his secret 300 Elders of Zion.... And according to Eric Samuelson, Jeroboam
Rothschild represented France in the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 under a
Gentile surname. Also located in Paris was the Prieur de Sion.

Beer was the American expert on colonial questions at the Peace
Conference in Paris. With Lord Eustace Percy, he drew up the plan
for the History of the Peace Conference which was carried out by
Harold Temperley. The British Round Table group served at the
conference as advisers to Prime Minister David Lloyd George.
[The real behind- the-scene experts at the Paris conference
included M. (Georges) Mandel (real name Jereboam Rothschild)
(France), Phillip Sassoon (1888-1939) (England) and Bernard
Baruch (U.S.).] Beer was named head of the Mandate Department
of the League of Nations as soon as it was established. (Mystery
Man: George Louis Beer)

In 1776, Meyer Amschel Rothschild would have been the kingpin of the Prieur
de Sion, even though he is not listed as the Grand Master and is also never
mentioned in books exposing the Prieur de Sion, such as Holy Blood, Holy Grail,
The Messianic Legacy, etc. which their authors promote as meticulously
researched. The Prieur de Sion or Priory of Zion is no doubt a religious front
for the Learned Elders of Zion, the high cabal of International Jewry responsible
for the Protocols of Zion, a strategy for world domination. Adam Weishaupt said
of the Illuminati, another front for the Learned Elders of Zion: As in the spiritual
Orders of the Roman Church, religion was, alas! only a pretense, so must our
Order also in a nobler way try to conceal itself behind a learned society or
something of the kind.... (Webster, Secret Societies & Subversive Movements, p.
222)

Anyone who has read the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion can discern the
Rothschild plan and modus operandi for world conquest. Protocol #5, section 4
bears an uncanny resemblance to the Illuminati plan to secretly direct the Jesuits
from behind the scenes, whilst discrediting the so-called Society of Jesus as a
Roman Catholic, i.e. Gentile, organization. The same dialectical tactic is in use
today:

4. Moreover, the art of directing masses and individuals by means
of cleverly manipulated theory and verbiage, by regulations of life
in common and all sorts of other quirks, in all which the GOYIM
understand nothing, belongs likewise to the specialists of our
administrative brain. Reared on analysis, observation, on delicacies
of fine calculation, in this species of skill we have no rivals, any
more than we have either in the drawing up of plans of political
actions and solidarity. In this respect the Jesuits alone might have
compared with us, but we have contrived to discredit them in the
eyes of the unthinking mob as an overt organization, while we
ourselves all the while have kept our secret organization in the
shade. However, it is probably all the same to the world who is its
sovereign lord, whether the head of Catholicism or our despot of
the blood of Zion! But to us, the Chosen People, it is very far from
being a matter of indifference.

The House of Rothschild is acknowledged to be the hidden hand behind the
Protocols, the Illuminati and the Order or Priory of Zion. Rothschild is an
eponym for Ruths Child, referring to Ruth in the lineage of David and
Solomon. In the Old Testament, Ruth, the Moabite widow, married Boaz and bore
Obed, who became the grandfather of David. In Merovingian lore and
Freemasonry, the Son of the Widow is the descendant of Ruth who is believed
to be the messiah. Judeo-Freemasonry in fact teaches that Solomon was the
Messiah.
The Lion that guarded the Ark and held in his
mouth the key wherewith to open it, figuratively
represents Solomon, the Lion of the Tribe of
Judah, who preserved and communicated the key
to the true knowledge of God, of His laws, and of
the profound mysteries of the moral and physical
Universe... The lion [, , Arai, Araiah, which
also means the altar] still holds in his mouth the key
of the enigma of the sphynx. Albert Pike, Morals
& Dogma, p. 210
The 121 Elders of the Priory of Zion appear to be the overlords of Bnai Brith,
which means Sons of the Covenant.
According to well-informed sources, there is in the Bnai Brith a
super-position of secret societies ending in a single governing
power. Above the B'nai B'rith are the Bnai Moshe, then the Bnai
Zion, and finally the hidden center of supreme command." (Leon
de Poncins, The Secret Powers Behind the Revolution)
THE ZIONISTS

Returning to Deutsch Devils, although Barry Chamish exposes the Sabbateans
and Frankists, he lacks the perspective that the Jesuits were not a Gentile
organization, but Jewish from the start. One must bear in mind that Chamish is
himself a Zionist who rejects, not the Jewish state, but merely the secular-leftist
associations of Labor Zionism. This Israeli journalist is in favor of a religious or
right-wing Zionism which is more devoted to military expansion of the state of
Israel than even the Labor Zionists.

We continue in Deutsch Devils with the Zionist Movement, the final act in the
destruction of Judaism by the High Cabal.

...It was from Germany to London that the apostate Jews Karl
Marx and Frederick Engels were sent to devise the rot of
communism. Shortly after that task was done, the Rothschilds sent
their agents John Jacob Astor and Jacob Schiff from Germany to
America. They financed the robber barons like Rockefeller and
Morgan, who in 1922, founded the Council on Foreign Relations,
to overthrow the American constitution and switch the nations
diplomacy to Illuminatiism.

THE REAL WAR AGAINST THE JEWS AND HUMANITY

In 1932, how many organizations in Germany represented
German Jewry? Over 250. In 1933, how many? One, and one only;
Labour Zionism. We will return to the significance shortly.
First, Rabbi Antelmans account continues. To corrupt the
Jews, the Frankists adopted, at first, a humane policy of sorts. With
Rothschild money and Jesuit power, the so-called Enlightenment
was initiated by the German Jewish apostate Moses Mendelsohn.
Napolean was financed to liberate the Jews wherever he conquered
and from Germany, the Reform and Conservative movements were
financed to further dilute the faith and introduce totally foreign
concepts to their congregations. But the pace wasnt fast enough.
The ornery Jews just werent cooperating with evil, so those
stubbornly accepting Torah morality would have to be removed
permanently and only those practising Shabbatainism would be
permitted to survive.
Yes, in the 2000 years of European Jewish history there were
pogroms, Crusades and Inquisitions, the latter aided and abetted by
the Jesuits. But compared to what happened from the 1880s on, life
was a tolerable picnic. The turning point in the final war against
the Jews was the founding of Zionism by the Shabbataians. The
final aim of the movement was to establish a Shabbataian state in
the historical land of the Jews, thus taking over Judaism for good.
To foment the idea, life had to made so intolerable for
Europes Jews, that escape to Palestine would appear to be the best
option. The Cossack pogroms were the first shot in this campaign
and for them, the Frankists turned to the Jesuits and their influence
over the Catholic Church. The Jesuits had done more to spread
communism, beginning with their feudal communes in South
America, and now they wanted to punish the anti-papists of Europe
by imprisoning them behind communal bars. The deal was simple:
The Jesuits provided the pogroms, the Frankists the communists.
And naturally, the Rothschilds would provide the moolah...

Incredibly, the Zionists controlled the refugee policy so that only politically-
minded Zionist Jews were permitted to emigrate to Israel. Trapped in Nazi-
occupied territories were those religious Jews who opposed the Zionist
Movement, many for the Biblical reason that the Messianic kingdom would not
be established until the Messiah arrived. Jews against Zionism were represented
by an organization called Agudas Yisroel, that was founded in 1912, but sold out
to the Zionists and was superseded by a splinter organization, Neturei Karta,
founded in Jerusalem in 1938. Compounding the tragedy of the Holocaust was the
fact that many countries, including most of the Allied nations, closed their borders
to Jewish immigration. In his book, The Six-Pointed Star, O.J. Graham elucidated
the selective policy of the Zionists:

From the records it seems that from 1933 to 1939, the Jews
were expected to leave Germany and all Nazi-occupied territories.
At the same time, there was a very definite selection system and a
very restrictive immigration policy on who went to Palestine,
headed by the Zionists. After 1939, it seems the annihilation camps
were set up to rid Germany of those Jews who did not make it to
Palestine or anywhere else... Lucy Dawidowicz, in her book, The
War Against the Jews, had this to say: At their 18th Congress in
1933, the Zionists established within the Jewish agency for
Palestine a Central Bureau for the Settlement of German Jews,
which, to begin with, excluded anti-Zionists as applicants for
certificates.
Young people in good health with some training for
agricultural work or manual trades and person with capital were
the preferred candidates for Aliya in a process where the needs and
interests of Palestine took precedence over the strategy of rescue.
Nathan Birnbaum was an early Zionist; in fact, he was the one who
coined the term Zionism. He was also present with Herzl at the
First Congress at Basel. Birnbaum left the movement in 1899 and
became completely orthodox and absolutely hostile to the Zionist
Movement. In his paper titled In Bondage to Our Fellow Jew, he
writes:
It seems, that we are better qualified with our bondage to the
Gentiles than with our bondage to our brothers who are estranged
from the Torah and its teachings. When our own estranged
brothers, who, next to us, are the mere grain, not only persecute us
but themselves give a handle to our persecution; when they not
only meddle in our affairs but take them wholly out of our hands;
when they not only refuse to let us go our ways in peace, but
actually try to obstruct our road forever. Birnbaum wrote these
words in 1901...
Michael Selzer in his book Zionism Reconsidered, says: Not
even the events of 1933 aroused their political interest. [He refers
to the Zionist Organization.] They were naive enough to see them
as a God-sent opportunity for an undreamt-of wave of immigration
to Palestine. When the Zionist Organization against the natural
impulses of the Jewish people, decided to do business with Hitler,
to trade German goods against the wealth of German Jewry, to
flood the Palestine market with German products and thus make a
mockery of the boycott against German-made articles, they found
little opposition in the Jewish National Homeland, and least of all
among its aristocracy -- the so-called Kibutniks... How many Jews
know these facts? 211:72-8

Holocaust, please see: Heeding Bible Prophecy: Zionism

Another eye-opener is evidence that Adolf Hitler was not only Jewish, but the
great grandson of a Rothschild. During World War II, A Psychological Analysis
of Adolph Hitler: His Life and Legend was published by Walter Langer of the
U.S. Office of Strategic Services (OSS) as an attempt to screen the wealth of
contradictory, conflicting and unreliable material concerning Hitler into strata
which will be helpful to the policy-makers and those who wish to frame a
counter-propaganda. Or, to use Langers words, how did a crazy paperhanger
manage in the course of a relatively few years, to talk his way into the highest
political offices, hoodwink the experienced leaders of the major powers, turn
millions of highly civilized people into barbarians, order the extermination of a
large segment of the population, build and control the mightiest war machine ever
known, and plunge the world into historys most devastating war?
(Background) The only explanation can be that Hitler had family connections in
high places:

Adolphs father, Alois Hitler, was the illegitimate son of Maria
Anna Schicklgruber. It is generally supposed that the father of
Alois Hitler was a Johann Georg Hiedler, a millers assistant.
Alois, however, was not legitimized, and bore his mothers name
until he was forty years of age when he changed it to Hitler...
There are some people who seriously doubt that Johann Georg
Hiedler was the father of Alois. Thyssen and Koehler, for example,
claim that Chancellor Dollfuss had ordered the Austrian police to
conduct a thorough investigation into the Hitler family. As a result
of this investigation a secret document was prepared which proved
that Maria Anna Schicklgruber was living in Vienna at the time
she conceived. At that time she was employed as a servant in the
home of Baron Rothschild. As soon as the family discovered her
pregnancy she was sent back to her home in Spital where Alois
was born. If it is true that one of the Rothschilds is the real father
of Alois Hitler, it would make Adolph a quarter Jew. According to
these sources, Adolph Hitler knew of the existence of this
document and the incriminating evidence it contained. In order to
obtain it he precipitated events in Austria and initiated the
assassination of Dollfuss. According to this story, he failed to
obtain the document at that time, since Dollfuss had secreted it
and, had told Schuschnigg of its whereabouts so that in the event
of his death the independence of Austria would remain assured.
Several stories of this general character are in circulation. (OSS
Profile: Part 4)

One commentary elaborated on the OSS report:

Alois, Hitler's father, was born in 1837 in the period when
Salomon Mayer was the only Rothschild who lived at the Vienna
mansion. Even his wife did not live there because their marriage
was so bad that she stayed in Frankfurt. Their son, Anselm
Salomon spent most of his working life in Paris and Frankfurt
away from Vienna and his father.
Father Salomon Mayer, living alone at the Vienna mansion
where Hitlers grandmother worked, is the prime, most obvious
candidate. And Hermann von Goldschmidt, the son of Salomon
Mayer's senior clerk, wrote a book, published in 1917, which said
of Salomon:
by the 1840s he had developed a somewhat reckless
enthusiasm for young girls..' and
He had a lecherous passion for very young girls, his adventures
with whom had to be hushed up by the police.
And Hitler's grandmother, a young girl working under the same
roof would not have been the subject of Salomons desire? And
this same girl became pregnant while working there? And her
grandson becomes the Chancellor of Germany, funded by the
Rothschilds, and he started the Second World War which was so
vital to the Rothschild-Illuminati agenda? And the Illuminati are
obsessed with putting their bloodlines into power on all 'sides' in a
conflict? And the Rothschilds are one of their most key bloodlines?
And it is all a co-incidence? - 563

One thing is certain, without Hitler there would be no State of Israel today.

Returning to the German Triumvirate which set the stage for the Holocaust,
whatever became of the multitudes of Sabbatean / Frankist families who
converted from Judaism to Roman Catholicism in the 17th and 18th centuries?
When we consider that America was a sanctuary for European crypto-Jews, it is
no surprise that some Frankists would turn up in the U.S. and land jobs in the
highest levels of government and financial institutions, which then became the
servants of International Jewry. Barry Chamish reveals just a few:

We return to a quote from Jerry Rabow:

pp 132 - Frankist families, both those living as Christians and
those living as Jews, tried to marry only among themselves. In the
summers, the German groups regularly held secret meetings in the
resort of Carlsbad... It is said by the middle of the nineteenth
century, the majority of the lawyers in Prague and Warsaw were
from Frankist families. United States Supreme Court Justice Felix
Frankfurter is reported to have received a copy of Eva Franks
portrait from his mother, a descendent of the Prague Frankist
family.

Here is a quote from Frankfurter: The real rulers in Washington
are invisible and exercise their power from behind the scenes.
Justice Felix Frankfurter, U.S. Supreme Court.

The difference between Rabow and Rabbi Antelman is the latter
proves that literally all of FDRs court Jews were German-
descended Sabbataians, determined to purge Jewry of its
unnecessary European, non-Sabbataian morality-believing cohorts.
Here is a short list of these Jewish community leaders:

Felix Brandeis - Received Secondary School education in
Germany. There, Englishman Jacob de Haas introduced him to
Zionism.

Henry Morgenthau Jr., Stephen Weiss, Judah Magnes, Felix
Warburg - All descended from German Jews. Here is a telling
quote from the latter Frankist family:

We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The
only question is whether World Government will be achieved by
conquest or consent. Statement made before the United States
Senate on Feb. 7, 1950 by James Paul Warburg (Angel to and
active in the United World Federalists), son of Paul Moritz
Warburg, nephew of Felix Warburg and of Jacob Schiff, both of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co. which poured millions into the Russian
Revolution through James brother Max, banker to the German
government.

In another article titled Kerry, Gaza and the New Sabbatean Holocaust Chamish
updates the list by adding Madeline Albright, John Kerry and Wesley Clark. All
are CFR members, have Gentile surnames and suffered memory loss when it
came to their Jewish parentage:

...And what did we recently discover; why Kerry is Jewish on
his fathers side. Somehow, he forgot the fact that his grandparents
were prominent Jewish business people in Prague and that his
father is 100% Jewish. Ask yourself, do you know anyone who
doesnt know his fathers religious background?
As rare as it must be, that affliction runs rampant in CFR
circles. Former CFR Secretary-of-State Madeleine Albright also
forgot that both her parents were Jews, even though she was raised
in the Jewish home of her relatives in London.
If you dont feel like voting Kerry, there is Wesley Clark
waiting in the wings. Uncannily, he is also a CFR member who
only discovered his father was Jewish while he was burning Bosnia
to ashes.
Now how come, no matter which Democrat you choose, you
get a CFR half-Jew who forgot all about it? The answer is found in
the Sabbatean (also Shabbataian and similar spellings) policy of
having their Jewish apostate followers converting and hiding their
roots and beliefs.

The Illuminati's personnel directors carefully groomed young
John Kerry from the start. First, they changed his family name to
Kerry, from Kohn. Kohn, of course, shows Kerry's true heritage as
a Jew. His superiors gave him a fictitious Irish name, great for
political effect because Massachusetts has a strongly Irish
population. (Power of Prophecy)

We might add to the list of current prominent crypto-Jews, Osama bin Laden,
whose mother is Jewish according to another Israeli source. Bali, Australia &
The Mossad by Rose Cohen appeared in an Australian publication on October
17, 2002.

BIN LADEN IS JEWISH, full stop. A very close friend and a
MOST eminent Israeli journalist told me recently, that according to
Jewish law - bin Laden is Jewish, as his mother is Jewish(!).
AND if that is not enough, this irrefutably honest Israeli
journalist, disclosed to me personally that bin Ladens mothers
family lives in Israel (I will not print here the exact address which
he provided me). I knew that bin Laden was Jewish long time ago,
but with the current war hysteria I never mentioned to anyone
except to my husband. The fact that bin Laden is Jewish, is known
in Israel, but the free democratic press of Israel will NOT
publish it, as we have to continue to promote the myth that he is a
villain.
Actually, I will not be surprised if bin Laden is living now in
Israel, and the Mossad is laughing all the way to the bank ! When
Israel and Bush finally will control all worlds countries, I am
confident that bin Laden will be invited as an honored guest.
We (should I say they?) the Jews NEVER brag about what we
are doing, and the public (here and in Israel) is totally innocent and
uninformed about the amount of terror that we are manipulating
and releasing on the whole world at the moment.
The strategy is simple: attempt to make our enemies suspect
each other and then fight it out. It saves us the work. Keep in mind
that our enemies are ANYONE WHO IS NOT JEWISH.

Maurice Pinay partly recognized the dialectical process at work, per the Protocols,
when he posited that crypto-Jewry in the Islamic world accounts for the tumult in
the Middle East today:

...the phenomenon of Crypto-Judaism did not remain only limited
to the Christian world. One still finds in different parts of the
Musleman world, communities of Crypto-Jews, as Cecil Roth
observes, who records several examples of Jewish communities, in
which Hebrews, who outwardly were Muselmen, are in secret still
Jews. This means that the Jews have also introduced a Fifth
Column into the bosom of the Islamic religion. This fact perhaps
explains the many divisions and the uproar which has occurred in
the world of Mohammed. (pp. 246-7)

In other words, having infiltrated the Christian and Islamic worlds, the crypto-
Jews were in a position to implement Protocol #17 of the Learned Elders of Zion,
Throughout all Europe, and by means of relations with Europe, in other
continents also, we must create ferments, discords, and hostility. Therein we gain
a double advantage.

To those who hesitate to believe that the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion
represent a blueprint for world domination by a secret Jewish brotherhood, Mrs.
Cohen offers some sensible advice: Many efforts have been made to dismiss the
Protocols as a hoax... frankly, it matters not whether they are or arent because of
their astonishing reflection of reality. Read them and decide for yourself.

The Protocols were first published in Russia in 1905 by Professor Sergyei A.
Nilus. In his Introduction, Prof. Nilus noted that Protocol III begins with a
reference to the cycle of the Symbolic Snake, by which we symbolise our
people. It cannot be overstated that Nilus misinterpreted the Symbolic Snake as
the symbol of Judaism in general, however, Genesis 49:17 specifically identifies
only one tribe of Israel as a Serpent: Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder
in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward. It is
important to remember this distinction in order to avoid misrepresenting all Jews
as the perpetrators of the evil scheme outlined in the Protocols.

Before presenting Prof. Nilus explanation of the Symbolic Snake, lets consider
what this image means in the occult traditions. The Symbolic Snake is the ancient
symbol of the Ouroboros, the serpent biting its own tail. This symbol is
represented in the logo of the Theosophical Society (left, below). A variation of
the Ouroboros (right, below) bears the inscription Pedet Finis Aborigine, which
means Look for the end in the beginning. This axiom denotes the Gnostic plan
to go back to the future, in other words to go through time in reverse, first to the
Garden of Eden and then back to the Creation. As New Age writer Tim Robbins
stated, Our purpose is to...return to Eden, make friends with the snake and set up
our computers among the wild apple trees. New Agers are not happy with the
plan of salvation that God ordained. These Gnostics believe that they are gods and
they have devised an alternate plan to fulfill Bible prophecy.



Thus, the Orobouros illustrates the nature of the Gnostic conquest of Christian
civilization in terms of time. In his Introduction to the Protocols of the Learned
Elders of Zion, Sergyei Nilus charted with uncanny precision the geographical
course of the Symbolic Snake:

Protocol III opens with a reference to the Symbolic Snake of
Judaism. In his Epilogue to the 1905 Edition of the Protocols,
Nilus gives the following interesting account of this symbol:
According to the records of secret Jewish Zionism, Solomon and
other Jewish learned men already, in 929 B.C., thought out a
scheme in theory for a peaceful conquest of the whole universe by
Zion.
[Prof. Nilus seems to be referring to the 8th chapter of the book
of Ezekiel to whom God gave visions of the Temple where the
Jewish elders conducted idolatrous rites sanctioned by Solomon
who promoted the worship of Astarte/Diana.]
As history developed, this scheme was worked out in detail and
completed by men who were subsequently initiated in this
question. These learned men decided by peaceful means to conquer
the world for Zion with the slyness of the Symbolic Snake, whose
head was to represent those who have been initiated into the plans
of the Jewish administration, and the body of the Snake to
represent the Jewish people [this is questionable in view of the
millions of Jews slaughtered by the Zionists] - the administration
was always kept secret, even from the Jewish nation itself [this is
closer to the truth]. As this Snake penetrated into the hearts of the
nations which it encountered it undermined and devoured all the
non-Jewish power of these States.
It is foretold that the Snake has still to finish its work, strictly
adhering to the designed plan, until the course which it has to run
is closed by the return of its head to Zion and until, by this means,
the Snake has completed its round of Europe and has encircled it -
and until, by dint of enchaining Europe, it has encompassed the
whole world. This it is to accomplish by using every endeavor to
subdue the other countries by an economical conquest.
The return of the head of the Snake to Zion can only be
accomplished after the power of all the Sovereign of Europe has
been laid low, that is to say, when by means of economic crises
and wholesale destruction effected everywhere, there shall have
been brought about a spiritual demoralization and a moral
corruption, chiefly with the assistance of Jewish women
masquerading as French, Italians, etc.. [like the porn stars in The
Passion of the Christ?] These are the surest spreaders of
licentiousness into the lives of the leading men at the heads of
nations.
A map of the course of the Symbolic Snake is shown as
follows: - Its first stage in Europe was in 429 B.C. in Greece,
where, about the time of Pericles, the Snake first started eating into
the power of that country. The second stage was in Rome in the
time of Augustus, about 69 B.C.. The third in Madrid in the time of
Charles V, in A.D. 1552. The fourth in Paris about 1790, in the
time of Louis XVI. The fifth in London from 1814 onwards (after
the downfall of Napoleon). The sixth in Berlin in 1871 after the
Franco-Prussian war. The seventh in St. Petersburg, over which is
drawn the head of the Snake under the date of 1881. [This Snake
is now being drawn through the Americas and in the United States
of America, it is been partially identified as the Counsel on
Foreign Relations (C.F.R.) and the Tri-Lateral Commission]...

It is fitting that the Ouroboros was originally a symbol of Ancient Greece, the first
stage of the European conquest by the Elders of Zion. The second stage in the
circular route of the Symbolic Snake was the conquest of Rome in the first
century B.C., which corroborates other evidence that the Zionists established
themselves in Rome centuries in advance of the creation of the Roman Catholic
Church. Spain in 1550 was a stronghold of the Alumbrados and France in 1790
was in the throes of the French Revolution. Britain, Germany and Russia virtually
completed the circular path of the Symbolic Serpent in Europe which was
devoured by the end of the twentieth century. Protocol III begins with the
announcement, Today I may tell you that our goal is now only a few steps off.
There remains but a small space to cross of the long path we have trodden before
the cycle of the Symbolic Snake, by which we symbolise our people, will be
completed.

MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT

CATHOLIC OR JEWISH?

PART IV


CITT DEL VATICANO

Does the Prieur de Sion control the Roman Catholic Church today? According to
various sources, including the Jewish Encyclopedia, the House of Rothschild has
been the long-standing trustee of the Vaticans wealth.

Early in the 19th century the Pope came to the Rothschilds to
borrow money. The Rothschilds were very friendly with the Pope,
causing one journalist to sarcastically say Rothschild has kissed
the hand of the Pope... Order has been reestablished. The
Rothschilds in fact over time were entrusted with the bulk of the
Vaticans wealth. The Jewish Ency., vol. 2, p. 497 states, It is a
somewhat curious sequel to the attempt to set up a Catholic
competitor to the Rothschilds that at the present time (1905) the
latter are guardians of the papal treasure. Researcher Eustace
Mullins writes that the Rothschilds took over all the financial
operations of the worldwide Catholic Church in 1823. Today the
large banking and financial business of the Catholic Church is an
extensive system interlocked with the Rothschilds and the rest of
the International Banking system. (Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines,
p.154)

It appears that the Medici were involved in the Rothschild takeover of the
Vaticans financial operations and, indeed, all of Italy, as well as the creation of a
new front for the disentitled Bavarian Illuminati, the Carbonari, of which the Alta
Vendita was the highest lodge:

In 1821 Carl [Kalman Rothschild] was sent to Naples, Italy to
oversee loans there that were meant to finance Metternichs forces
who had arrived to quell a rebellion. While in Italy the Rothschild
mantle came upon Carl and he made a series of ingenious deals
with the Italian government that forced Naples to pay for its own
occupation. He also helped Luigi de Medici of the Black Nobility
to re-gain his position as finance minister of Naples, and later did
business with the powerful man. Due to his success it was decided
that he would stay in Naples and set up his own bank. He became
financier to the court, the financial overlord of Italy. Carl
...wound the Italian peninsula around his hand. He did business
with the Vatican, and when Pope Gregory XVI received him by
giving him his hand rather than the customary toe to kiss, people
realized the extent of his power. The Pope conferred upon him the
Order of St. George.
It appears that in Italy Carl became a leader of Carbonarism.
After the Bavarian Illuminati was exposed, Carbonarism (or the
Alta Vendita) became the major European occult power. Carls
leadership in this group is very significant. In 1818 a secret Alta
Vendita document, that Carl had participated in preparing, was
sent to the headquarters of Masonry. A copy of this document was
lost, and the Masons got very upset, and offered rewards for the
return of this copy. The title of the document translates Permanent
Instructions, or Practical Code of Rules; Guide for the Heads of the
Highest Grades of Freemasonry. [Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines,
pp.179-180]

The Alta Vendita was governed by Jews and the Permanent Instructions, or
Practical Code of Rules; Guide for the Heads of the Highest Grades of
Freemasonry corresponds to the The Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned
Elders of Zion more evidence linking the House of Rothschild with the
Protocols. Recall that Jeroboam Rothschild directed the secret Elders of Zion.

The original Italian translation of the document entitled
Permanent Instructions or Practical Code of Rules; Guide for the
Heads of the Highest Grades of Masonry was given to Nubio
(Piccolo Tigre, a nondescript Jew) of the Alta Vendita lodge in
1824 when he was sent to Rome to carry it into effect, and it was to
this instruction that he referred when he wrote from Forli to Signor
Volpi, As I have written to you before, I am appointed to
demoralise the education of the youth of the [Roman] Church.
These secret Instructions which were written in 1815, are in perfect
accord with the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion and
intended only for a chosen few Masons of heavy calibre.

The Prieur de Sion, which is directed by the House of Rothschild, works from
the shadows, yet one need only consider the list of past Grand Masters of this high
cabal to begin to comprehend the magnitude of its influence and power. Baigent,
Leigh and Lincoln disclosed the nature of its membership in Holy Blood, Holy
Grail: The French press, in a brief article on M. Plantards election as Grand
Master in 1981, had stated that the 121 high dignitaries of the Prieur de Sion are
all eminences grises of high finance and of international political or philosophical
organizations. (p. 362) In his Introduction to the Protocols of Zion, Victor
Marsden wrote of other gray eminences who wield unofficial power, secretly
sheltered under the umbrella of the Prieur de Sion: ...in 1931...Jean Izoulet, a
prominent member of the Jewish Alliance Israelite Universelle, wrote in his Paris
la Capitale des Religions:The meaning of the history of the last century is that
today 300 Jewish financiers, all Masters of Lodges, rule the world.

Springmeier stated in The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines, It has been said all roads
lead to Rome. For this book, it could be said all paths of investigation lead to the
Rothschilds. Which means all roads lead to the Prieur de Sion: The Prieur de
Sion - the Elders of Sion also relates to the Rothschilds who are reported to serve
on a Jewish council of Elders of Sion... For instance, Armstrong, The Rothschild
Trust, p. 196, That is the present objective of Jeroboam Rothschild and his secret
Elders of Zion. (pp.152,163) Springmeier also references Holy Blood, Holy
Grail, ...the text of the Protocols [of the Elders of Sion] ends with a single
statement, Signed by the representatives of Sion of the 33rd Degree. (p.193)

One way to discover the Prieurs oversight of the occult underground is to follow
the rabbit trails between various secret societies as they are mentioned in New
Age publications. For example:

...The Scandals of the Prieure de Sion...[alleged] On January
1981two days, that is, after Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire was
elected Grand Master of the Prieure de Siona high-ranking
member of the Order is alleged by Cornelius to have had a
meeting with Licio Gelli, Grand Master of the P2. The meeting is
said to have occurred at the brasserie called La Tipia on the rue de
Rome in Paris...
...As far as we know it is widely disseminated....if any of
Corneliuss allegations should prove to have even a degree of
validity, it will open the lid of a particularly unpleasant can of
worms...
It is now generally acknowledged that P2, however influential
and powerful it may have been, was (and probably still is)
controlled by some even higher, more shadowy authority, which
transmitted its instructions through Licio Gelli, the Lodges Grand
Master. According to an Italian parliamentary commission, the
organisation behind P2 lay beyond the frontiers of Italy. There
has been much speculation, both plausible and otherwise, about his
organisation. Some have identified it as the...Prieure de Sion.
(The Messianic Legacy, 308-9, 352)
...while conducting their research, the authors of [Holy Blood,
Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy] came across indications
that The Prieur had been heavily infiltrated by both the Knights of
Malta and the P2 Mason lodge, two secret societies notorious for
their involvement with mobsters and fascists. (Dagoberts
Revenge)

I had intended to go into great detail linking P2, the Prieur de
Sion, the Vatican, the CIA, organizations for a United Europe, and
the Bilderberg Group. Fortunately, Michael Baigent, Richard
Leigh & Henry Lincoln beat me to it. (William Cooper, Behold a
Pale Horse, pp.77-9)

Some interesting things have come to light about the Prieur
recently. One is that the Swiss Grand Lodge Alpina (GLA), the
highest body of Swiss Freemasonry (akin to the Grand Lodge of
England), may have been the recruiting body for the Prieur. But
the GLA is also said by some to be the meeting place of the
Gnomes of Zurich who are said to be the Power Elite of Swiss
bankers and international financiers. The GLA is said by David
Yallop to be the body which controlled the P2 Masonic Lodge in
Italy.
P2 controlled the Italian secret police in the 1970s, took money
from the CIA and KGB, may have had a hand in the kidnapping of
Aldo Moro by the Red Brigades, had 900 agents in other branches
of the Italian government and the highest positions of the
Vatican...used the Vatican Bank to launder Mafia drug money,
fomented fascist coups in South America, and is most likely linked
to the arch-conservative Knights of Malta and Opus Dei in the
Vatican. (Mysteries of Rennes le Chateau)

In 1958, Angelo Roncalli, who became Pope John XXIII, was allegedly a member
of the Prieur de Sion.
The name John had been implicitly anathematized since it was
last used in the early fifteenth century by an Antipope! Moreover,
there had already been a John XXIIIthe Antipope who abdicated
in 1415. Thus the selection by Roncalli of the name Pope John
XXIII was unusual to say the least, and raised many questions.
One answer was suggested in 1976 by a book called The
Prophecies of Pope John XXIII. The book was allegedly a
compilation of obscure prophetic prose written by the Pontiff. In
addition, the book also maintained that Pope John XXIII was
secretly a member of the Rose-Croix, (a subtitle for the Prieur de
Sion) with whom he had become affiliated while acting as papal
nuncio to Turkey in 1935. Furthermore, it was suggested that
Cardinal Roncalli, on becoming Pope, had chosen the name of his
own secret grand masterso that, for some symbolic reason, there
would be a John XXIII presiding over Sion and the papacy
simultaneously. (Library of Halexandria)
One of the first initiatives of John XXIII was to publish an encyclical on The
Precious Blood of Jesus, the staggering ramifications of which will soon be
realized as the doctrines pertaining to Jesus crucifixion have been hurled into the
public forum for debate:

Finally, in June 1960, Pope John XXIII issued a profoundly
important apostolic letter, whose subject was the Precious Blood
of Jesus. This letter emphasized Jesus suffering as a human being
and maintained that the redemption of mankind had been effected
by the shedding of his blood. In the context of Pope Johns letter,
Jesus human Passion and the shedding of his blood assume a
greater consequence than the Resurrection or even than the
mechanics of the Crucifixion!
The implications are enormous. The letter alters the whole
basis of Christian belief. If mans redemption was achieved by the
shedding of Jesus blood, his death and resurrection become
incidentalif not, indeed, superfluous. Through his letter Pope
John XXIII implies that the death of Jesus on the cross is no longer
a requisite tenet of the Roman Catholic faith. Jesus need not have
died on the cross for the Catholic faith to retain its validity. (Ibid.)

John XXIIIs encyclical allows for the Merovingian version of Jesus, who did not
die but recovered from the crucifixion and fled to France with his wife and
offspring. The author of the popular book, The DaVinci Code, Dan Brown said
that when he wrote the best seller that dissects the origins of Jesus Christ and
disputes long-held beliefs about Catholicism, he considered including material
alleging that Jesus Christ survived the crucifixion. (MSNBC) The 1960
encyclical also cleared a theological path for The Passion of the Christ film
which also overemphasized Jesus suffering as a human being, made no statement
about His divinity and omitted, not only the Virgin Birth, but also the Ascension.
So where did Mel Gibsons Jesus go after his dubious resurrection, resuscitation
and/or recuperation from the crucifixion? Perchance to the South of France with
Mary Magdalene and their child? This is the gospel according to
www.humanists.net/:

If Jesus did not die on the cross he would have been forced to
flee the Holy Land. If authorities discovered Jesus was still alive,
he would have been punished again. So where would he have
gone? There is a story of Christs life after the crucifixion. That the
blood relatives of Jesus may still live among us!
Rennes le Chteau is at the foot of the Peraniese Mountains in
the South of France... a young Parish priest by the name of
Brenger Saunire...found four parchments, which started the
mystery. Two of the parchments were written in code which he
could not decipher. Saunire took the parchments to Paris to seek
help from experts in military code and ciphers... Is it possible that
the coded documents revealed to Brenger Saunire that Christ had
survived the crucifixion? (The Fraudulent Crucifixion)

In 1961, John XXIII reinstated the Knights of Malta, according to Sodalitium, a
Roman Catholic publication:

June 24, 1961. On that date, the feast of Saint John the Baptist,
patron of the Order (and of Masonry), John XXIII received the
Knights at the Vatican, and to their great satisfaction, publicly
issued the Brief by which the Commission of Cardinals instituted
by Pius XII was suppressed. He also approved the new
constitutions of the Order, and authorized the election of a Grand
Master. ("The Pope of the Council, Part 19: John XXIII and
Masonry," Sodalitium, October/November 1996.)

Pope John XXIII then proceeded to rescind the prohibition of Roman Catholics
holding membership in Freemasonry:

It was John XXIII who broke the ice with a measure that
passed completely in silence, authorizing Protestants converted to
Catholicism and initiated into Masonry to remain peacefully in the
lodges. Since then, signs of contact have multiplied John
XXIIIs governance changed the 100 year intransigence of the
Church vis a vis Masonry into an overture which resulted in
permitting dual membership in the Church and in Masonry...
that Masonry is an association in which all Christians have a
placeJohn XXIII and Paul VI understood very well Le grandi
concoranze tra Chiesa e Massoneria (The major agreements
between the Church and Masonry)didnt exist between the
Church and Masonry, but only between the latter and John XII,
Paul VI, and John Paul II. (Ibid.)

In 1978, John Paul I (Albino Luciani) was Pope for only 33 days. David Yallops
book, In Gods Name, implicates the P2 Masonic Lodge in his untimely death. P2
stands for Propaganda 2. Interestingly, Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair served as
minister of propaganda under former President of France, Charles DeGaulle,
who was the son of a headmaster of a Jesuit college in Paris. According to Yallop,
the Rothschild-controlled Vatican Bank were laundering money for their Jewish
brothers in the Medici Mafia:

Specifically, the Knights of Malta, Italian Masonic lodge P2,
and Holy Roman Empire restorationists The Priory of Sion have
all been proven to be linked to the hierarchy of the
Vatican. Global members of these fascist groups participate at the
highest levels of the military, international politics, and finance.
P2 (Propaganda 2) are perhaps the most visible, and are
named after the propaganda machine of Nazi Joseph Goebbels, that
effectively mind controlled the German people into believing their
Rosicrucian racist ideology that led to the Holocaust.
P2 has been linked to the Mafia, and directly implicated in the
death of Pope John Paul I in 1978, as revealed by the acclaimed
book In Gods Name by respected journalist David Yallop.
It is widely known that Pope John Paul I demanded
resignations from Vatican insiders who were members of P2, and
were involved in major money laundering for the Mafia through
the Vatican Bank. He also planned a complete reshuffle of the
staff in the power structure of the Vatican. The next night he was
found dead in his room with a list of names scattered over his
body, and was promptly buried without an autopsy. Those listed
were retained, and many were promoted to positions of more
responsibility and power, including Chicagos Bishop Paul
Marcinkus who handled Vatican investments, and who eluded a
suspicious Italian police by remaining within the Vaticans
walls. (Neo-Nazis)

The current pope, John Paul II, is from Poland, a Jewish stronghold that was the
center of Cabalism and the Baal Shem movement as well as the special province
of the Illuminati. A Catholic article which exposes the Masonic connections of
John Paul II and the influence of Jacob Frank on his papacy, also reveals the
considerable damage the Frankist movement has inflicted on the citadel of Roman
Catholicism. The author of Karol, Adam, Jacob, a Father Francesco Ricossa,
first links Karol Wojtyla to Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855), a Polish messianist
and a figure of singular importance. According to Fr. Ricossa, Polish messianists
consider Poland to be another Christ, crucified by and between its ancient
enemies, Germany and Russia. Someday, Polish messianists believe, their nation
will rise from the dead as Jesus did. Until then, their suffering is believed to be
messianic in nature. Mickiewicz was a close associate of another Polish
messianist, Andrzej Towianski (1799-1871), who was strongly influenced by
Jacob Frank. Towianski believed he was charged with announcing the end of
Christianity and one of his disciples predicted the election of a Slavic Pope who
would help to realize that objective:

As for Towianski, in his humility, he believed he was, after
Napoleon, the third epiphany of Christ, the predestined leader who
to be born of a nation, Poland, martyr and redemptor like Christ.
He was the gris and occultist of mystical literature; perhaps he
was initiated into many secret societies (p. 252).His metaphysical
and moral system, anti-rationalist and anti-authoritarian, was
influenced by Saint Saint-Martin, Swedenborg, by T.
Grabianka.. But it was also influenced by a certain Jacob Frank,
whom I shall treat. It is interesting to note that, for Towianski, at
the end of time, hell would no longer exist. Many authors have
been influenced by Towianski: the Polish Poet, Juliusz Slowaki
(1803-1849), who would predict the election of a Slavic Pope, our
subject here, Mickiewicz; the modernist writer,
Fogazzaro. Mickziewicz, Slowaki, and Krasinski were listed by
Buttiglione as Karol Wojtylas masters. (p. 32)... ("Karol,
Adam, Jacob," M. Abb Francesco Ricossa, Sodalitium, No. 48,
April 1999)

Mickeiewicz belonged to the Cabalistic Martinist Order and was influenced by
Anne Catherine Emmerich, the psychic Augustinian nun whose hallucinations
inspired Mel Gibsons heretical film The Passion of the Christ:

Was Mickewicz a Mason?...[His] Polish secret societies were the
replica (and often the ally) of the Russian secret societies a type
of Slavic Carbonarism... Mickiewicz, became a Martinist, from
rationalist to mystic; in 1836, he published Zdania I uwagi
(Feelings and observations), a collection of quotes from the works
of Bhme), Silesius and Saint-Martin. With Saint-Martin, we are
amid full blown Masonry, and even full blown Jewish Cabalism! It
is in this esoteric environment, well established before the his
affiliation with Towianskis movement, that Mickiewicz thought
becomes bogged down in the mud, Strongly touched in his youth
by the mystique of the secret societies...by Bhme with whom he
fell in love in Dresden in 1832, by the visions of Frederick
Wanner, by Swedenborg, by Baader and by Saint-Martin whom he
had read in Paris in 1833, but also by Catherine Emmerichand
by the great mystics of the Christian tradition... Mickiewicz [was]
among the most dangerous thinkers of Masonic-Christian
esotericism. (Ibid.)

Adam Mickiewicz was also a colleague of the Italian Giuseppe Mazzini (1805-
1872), the powerful Masonic revolutionary who, with Karl Marx, a Jew whose
real surname was Mordecai, founded the Communist International. Guiseppe
Mazzini also belonged to the Carbonari which had superseded the Bavarian
Illuminati. Mazzini unified Italian Freemasonry to break the temporal power of
the Papacy and, with his fellow Mason in the U.S., Albert Pike, united
Freemasonry internationally to destroy the Church. In Occult Theocrasy, Edith
Starr Miller wrote that the Communist International took a special interest in
securing the independence of Poland for the benefit of the Jewish Brotherhood
in that country:

At a meeting [of the Communist International] held in London,
in 1865, the re-establishment of Poland entire and independent
was...discussed...and that the Conference must stand by the Polish
cause. In 1866, a meeting or congress was held at Geneva...
Another resolution favoring Polish Independence was passed...
To anyone unversed in the intricacies of International Politics
at that date, the introduction and predominance of the measures
concerning Poland seem senseless. All the International societies
which, at that time, were affiliated with Young Italy of which
Mazzini, if not in every case the nominal founder, was in all cases
the moving spirit, were controlled by a central committee of which
the famous Italian Revolutionary was the presiding genius. In this
committee centered also the political power of Carbonarism plus
that of Masonry as well as the of Judaism which, functioning
through Mazzini, [Armand] Levi and [Adriano] Lemmi, found in
the dawning of the International, an easy means of fostering
revolutions on foreign territory and a centre of agitation towards
extorting the extension of rights and privileges to their Jewish
Brothers in Poland, which at that date had the largest Jewish
population of any country in the world. Thus, the International,
later to become its most powerful agent and the tyrant of a nation,
began to serve the Jewish International power. (p. 492)

Protocol 17 of the Learned Elders of Zion boasts of the plan of the Prieur de Sion
to destroy the Catholic Church via infiltration by agents provocateurs, first, to
corrupt the priesthood, a plan which is now yielding a harvest of evil fruit, and
secondly, a smear campaign which altogether misrepresents the Catholic Church
as a Gentile institution led by Christian pedophiles. It is worth noting that Pope
John Paul II has done little or nothing to remove priests who are homosexual
predators.

2. We have long past taken care to discredit the priesthood of the
goyim, and thereby to ruin their mission on earth which in these
days might still be a great hindrance to us. Day by day its influence
on the peoples of the world is falling lower. Freedom of conscience
has been declared everywhere, so that now only years divide us
from the moment of the complete wrecking of that Christian
religion: as to other religions we shall have still less difficulty in
dealing with them, but it would be premature to speak of this now.
We shall put clericalism and clericals into such narrow frames as
to make their influence move in retrogressive proportion to its
former progress.

Pope John Paul II was the first Pontiff to openly visit a Jewish synagogue, where
he prayed with the Chief Rabbi of Rome who was so impressed with the open-
mindedness of the Pope that he converted to Catholicism and changed his name to
Eugenio Pacelli in honor of Pius XII. The Vatican under John Paul II also forged
full diplomatic ties with Israel and this pope is credited with ending 2,000 years of
hostility and distrust between Christians and Jews. On January 17, 2002, the
current Chief Rabbi of Rome held a special meeting with the Vatican Cardinals.
January 17 is the date in 681 when Sigisbert IV, the deceased King Dagoberts
son, also known as the Plant-Ard, took refuge from the Carolingian assassins at
Rennes-le-Chateau. (In commemoration of this occasion, the Prieur de Sion
traditionally convenes on January 17 for the selection of Grand Masters.) The
Vatican Cardinals listened without a protest to Rabbi Di Segnis ominous lecture
concerning the up and coming implementation of the Noachide Laws:

In Rome, on January 17, 2002, in the Lecture hall of the Major
Roman Pontifical Seminary, a meeting was organized by the
Diocese of Rome, part of the Day of Jewish-Christian dialogue.
Present on the Catholic side were Cardinal Jorge Maria Mejia and
Msgr. Rino Fisichella, and on the Jewish side, Rabbi Riccardo Di
Segni, who replaced Rabbi Elio Toaff as Chief Rabbi of Rome...
Rabbi Di Segni...explains [the seven precepts that all noachides
must respect]:
These rules are: interdiction of all worship except monotheism,
interdiction on blasphemy, the obligation to form tribunals, the
interdiction on homicide, theft, adultery, and incest, and the
interdiction on eating food torn from living animals.
...The Rabbis attention is completely fixed on the first precept,
that of monotheism: As to the monotheist cult, apparently, it poses
no doubt for the major religions. Arent Judaism, Christianity and
Islam defined, in post-conciliar language that has become
colloquial today, as the three major monotheist religions? In fact,
Di Segni sees no difficulty in defining Muslims as strict and even
circumcised monotheists. But, as to Christians, he has some
doubts....
christians: monotheists or idolators?
This is where Di Segni---who is the author of the re-publication
of the Toledoths Jehsu, under the new title, Il Vangelo del Ghetto
[The Gospel of the Ghetto], with the Toledoths Jehsu being the
most inflammatory Jewish legends against Jesus (1)---speaks
clearly to the prelates who heard him:
At the point we have now reached, it is necessary to make a
clarification on Jewish theology, which, on the subject of
monotheism and how it is lived by Christianity, gives rise to a
debate that is essentially a dilemma. The point in question is in
view of establishing whether Jesus divinity can be compatible, for
a non-Jew (because for a Jew it is absolutely not) with the
monotheistic concept.
In other words: The Jew who would become a Christian, thus
then believing in the divinity of Jesus, would cease to be a
monotheist in order to become an idolater. Must one say the same
thing of a non-Jew? Is believing in Jesus divinity a sin of idolatry,
a violation of the first precept of the Noachide law? Rabbi Di
Segni advises:
As to be expected, in Jewish theology, the answer to this
question is not unanimous: some firmly deny it, others place
certain conditions on it. The consequence is that, according to the
literal opinion, the Christian would not be on the path of salvation
since he is guilty of idolatry.
where Di Segni is unclear: the punishment of death for non-
monotheists (made up, in part, of christians)
Di Segni concludes: If one must literally apply the Noachide
system of laws, it [the punishment of death] would be applied to
all, so that the Noachides might observe it. Likewise, the
punishment of death would apply to what treats forbidding the
worship of strange gods, in view of monotheism. (559)
[Rabbi Di Segnis message gives contemporary relevance to
Revelation 20:4: ...and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded
for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God.]
The Rabbi is not finished.

rabbi di segni's proposition
...Actually, Di Segni advances a proposition...
Christians must come to admit that the Jews, by virtue of their
original and irrevocable election, as well as of their possession and
observance of the Torah, possess a way toward salvation which is
proper to them, a full and special way that has no need of Jesus....
Di Segni knows that he asks the impossible of Christians, and it
is for this reason that he asks it. To admit that a man, even one
man, one soul, even one, has no need of Jesus means to renounce
Jesus. For Di Segni, this would be obtaining from Christians the
implicit refutation of Jesus detested (by him) divinity. (3)...
ff.3. This is a mad hope on Di Segni's part. Certainly, because
of the divine promises: the gates of Hell shall not prevail against
Her. But---humanly speaking---not so mad. In effect, John-Paul
IIs post-conciliar magisterium has already recognized the
irrevocable character of the divine election of the Jews, and the
Old Testament. Cardinal Lustiger who, according to rabbinic
doctrine, surely merits death if the sincerity of his conversion were
demonstrated, expressed a position not much different from that of
Rabbi Di Segni: The Jewish as well as the Christian faith are a
call from God...Israel's vocation is that the light might be brought
to the goyim...I believe that Christianity is a path to attaining this.
(Agence tlgraphic juive, no. 2649 4/2/81. (Sodalitium no. 39, p.
15, Le problme des marranes [The Problem of the Marranos], by
Father Nitoglia). (559)

Jean-Marie Cardinal Lustiger a member of the College of Cardinals, chief
confidant of John Paul II, and considered by many to be a prime candidate for his
successor says he is proud of his Jewish origins. On becoming Archbishop of
Paris, Lustiger actually said: I was born Jewish and so I remain, even if that is
unacceptable for many. For me, the vocation of Israel is bringing light to the
goyim. That is my hope and I believe that Christianity is the means for achieving
it. By Israel Cardinal Lustiger meant the Jewish people. By Christianity, he
meant the apostate Church.
...and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having
seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked
with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations
and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE
EARTH.

BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH
The Roman ruler, Julius Caesar, was assassinated on the Ides
of March - March 15, 44 B.C.E. In Shakespeares play Julius
Caesar, a soothsayer tells Caesar who is already on his way to the
Senate (and his death), Beware the ides of March. Caesar replies,
He is a dreamer; let us leave him. Pass....
According to Plutarchs account, Caesar had previously made
the wise decision to stay within the safety of his bedroom
chambers on the 15th of March. However, Caesars friend
Decimus (Albinus) Brutus (not Marcus Brutus) managed to
convince him that the astrologers warnings were nothing more
than superstitious foolishness. So Julius Caesar decided to attend
the Senate on the 15th of March. On his way to the Senate, Caesar
accidentally met up with the astrologer. Upon seeing the
astrologer, Caesar confidently informed Spurinna: The Ides of
March are come. Spurinna answered, Yes, they are come, but
they are not past. Later that day - on March 15, 44 B.C.E. -
Caesars enemies assassinated him in the Pompey theater, at the
foot of Pompeys statue, where the Roman Senate was meeting
that day in the temple of Venus. (Calendars Through the Ages)

In 45 B.C., the Roman Senate appointed Julius Caesar imperator of Rome, i.e.,
emperor or absolute dictator for life. A statue of Caesar was even erected in the
Roman temple with the inscription To the Invincible God. However, the
citizens of Rome were fearful of a monarchy and soon thereafter Caesar was
assassinated by certain Senators who wanted to preserve the Roman tradition of a
republic.

From the earliest [Roman] Empire, the emperors had taken the
role of Pontifex Maximus, the high priest of the State religion. This
had been initiated by Julius Caesar and continued by Augustus, his
adopted son and first emperor of Rome. This ensured that the
monarchy had to perform a priestly function in the running of the
state. This is a striking similarity with that of the Egyptians and the
Sumero-Accadians described above. The fact that the emperors
were described as deities after their death until the time of
Diocletian shows that the Roman Empire had a form of sacred
monarchy. Diocletians example drives the point home more
clearly. [Diocletian (245-313) conducted the last and most terrible
of all the ten persecutions of the early Church.] Constantine, the
first Christian emperor of Rome also saw himself as a god, though
this ended when he became Christian. The period of emperors as
gods in their lifetime didnt last long, but as already mentioned the
sacred monarchy goes back to the start of the period of Empire in
Roman life.
The conversion of Constantine marked a seismic shift in the
structure of religious beliefs in the Roman Empire. Though
initially the pagan religions werent outlawed, they were
eventually, and Christianity became the official and only allowed
religion in the Roman Empire. This also helped usher in a new
powerful force in the Roman Empire the Church. This is first
illustrated when Ambrose of Milan dictates to the emperor
Theodosius for punishing a riot in Thessalonica by the massacre of
its citizens. The fact that he was able to order the emperor to
perform public penance was one of the first signs of the emergence
of Christendom, where the Church was the most powerful
institution, more powerful than the state. This was a new form of
sacred monarchy, that of the papal monarchy. (Sacred Monarchy)

The worship of Caesar had established in Rome the tradition of a sacred
monarchy which would evolve centuries later into the Papal worshipthe
exultation of a religious leader as a literal Christ on the earth. This is the precise
term used by various Catholic saintsand popes, and most recently by another
Cardinal, Joseph Ratzinger, the powerful Prefect of the Congregation for the
Doctrine of the Faith (modern-day successor to the Inquisition) and the second
most powerful person in the Vatican after the Pope. Ratzinger said:

The twentieth century was one of the most crucial in human
history, with its tragic and cruel events culminating in the
assassination attempt on the sweet Christ on earth. Now a veil is
drawn back on a series of events which make history and interpret
it in depth, in a spiritual perspective alien to present-day attitudes,
often tainted with rationalism. (The Message of Fatima)

This is the same Cardinal Ratzinger who calls the Jews our Jewish brothers,
who wrote that the Jews and Christians are inseparable, and who, in January of
2002, authorized a 210-page document by the Pontifical Biblical Commission,
titled The Jewish People and the Holy Scriptures in the Christian Bible which
states that the Jewish messianic wait is not in vain,that Jews and Christians
wait together for the Messiah, even though Jews are waiting for the first coming
and Christians for the second coming! The Pontifical Biblical Commission stated:
Like them, we too live in expectation. The difference is that for us the One who
is to come will have the traits of the Jesus who has already come and is already
present and active among us. If this statement seems to be saying that Christians
await a messiah who will merely have the traits of Jesus Christ, and not Jesus
Christ Himself, that is exactly what the Pontifical Commission said.

James Caviezel, the actor who played the role of Jesus in The Passion of the
Christ, was granted an audience with Pope John Paul II on the Ides of March.
Considering the Merovingian agenda of this film and Masonic propensities of the
pope, the date of this meeting would seem to be an esoteric signal of some
importance. Perhaps the imminent restoration of the old Roman Empire with its
sacred monarchy and persecution of Christians by means of another Inquisition
the Fifth Seal per Rev. 6:9-11 after which the Pontifex Maximus, having been
framed as the Antichrist, will be tried and executed for crimes against humanity.
Just as vast powers and privileges were conferred upon Julius Caesar which
precipitated his demise, the Great Whore will mount the Beast for a final whirl
around the globe before she is cast off and finished for eternity. The Harlot
Church will have fulfilled her intended purpose, that of neutralizing, exploiting,
and ultimately eradicating the faith of Jesus Christ.

Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
(Luke 18:8)

IS THE CONSPIRACY JEWISH?


I am Semitic. Its my lineage, Im from the house of
David and Abraham, Caviezel said. (National Catholic
Reporter, 3/19/04)

Caviezel: [Mel Gibson] wanted to make this film very
Semitic. Instead of having an Aryan, blue-eyed Jesus, he
wanted to have a very Semitic Jesus. Our faith is
grounded in our Jewish tradition. We believe were from
the House of David. We believe were from the House
of Abraham, so we cannot hate our own... (Newsweek,
2/15/04)

In an interview with Senior Writer Sean Smith in the
February 16 issue of Newsweek... Caviezel says Jewish
leaders have every right to defend their faith. But I
believe that when all my Jewish brothers see this film,
they will realize that its not about assigning blame.

Jim Caviezel: ...I want my Jewish brothers to see this
film. (700 Club)

James Caviezel claims to be a traditional Roman Catholic, however his claims of
a Semitic lineage in a number of interviews are most revealing. Of course, Mr.
Caviezels allusions to having Jewish heredity are interspersed among
declarations of personal and family devotion to the Roman Catholic tradition and
frequent references to his Catholic piety, e.g. devotion to the Blessed Virgin
Mary, daily Mass and receiving the Eucharist, frequent confession to a priest,
wearing of relics and the penitential scapular, submission to the Pope and belief in
Marian apparitions, particularly at Medjugorje, and so forth.

The question presents itself, if James Caviezel is a traditionalist Roman Catholic,
why is he making veiled references to having a Semitic lineage? To our
knowledge, the actor has made no statements of a personal or family conversion
from Judaism to Roman Catholicism.

A reporter from the Charlotte Observer who interviewed James Caviezel wrote:
Caviezel its a Romansch name from Switzerland... prefers not to talk about
his personal life. Snippets of biographical information do not provide much
information, but enough to allow for a possible Frankist/Merovingian ancestry:
His surname is Romansch (Rhaeto-Romanic), from Switzerland... Heritage: 50%
Irish, 25% Slovak, and 25% Romanch His mothers maiden name is Lavery, a
Jewish surname. What we do know is that James Caviezel has stated in many
interviews that he is Semitic: I am Semitic. Its my lineage, Im from the house
of David and Abraham, Caviezel said. (National Catholic Reporter)

Although he does not provide any details about his Semitic lineage, Caviezel
fairly exudes over his Roman Catholic religion.

The catharsis for me to play this role was through Medjugorje,
through Gospa [Our Lady]. In preparation, I used all that
Medjugorje taught me. Mel Gibson and I were going every day for
Mass together. Some days I couldnt go for Mass, but I was
receiving the Eucharist. Somewhere along the line, I heard that the
Pope was going for confession every day, so I thought that I should
go for confession as often as possible So, the confession was the
preparation for the Eucharist. Ivan Dragicevic and his wife
Lorraine gave me a piece of the true cross. I kept this on me all the
time. They made a special pocket in my clothes for it. I also had
relics of Padre Pio, St. Anthony of Padoua, Ste Maria Goretti, and
Saint Denisius, the Patron saint of Actors. Another thing was
fasting. I read many of the messages continuously. Every day
everyone could see me with the rosary in my hands I ask Mary
to guide me and my career... This film is something that I believe
was made by Mary for her Son. (The Mothers Village)

James Caviezels profession seems disingenuous to this writer, a former Roman
Catholic. He is hyperbolic, as if mocking the traditions of Roman Catholicism.
Even so, to many Catholics Caviezel will appear fervently devout, which is the
modus operandi of the Marranos according to Maurice Pinay: ...the Jews, thanks
to their...skilled false conversion, entered Christianity and appeared publicly as
Christians, however, secretly held to their Jewish religion. ...this secret belief was
passed on by parents to children, covered with the appearance of an outward
Christian militancy... (p.239)

If it is the case that Caviezel is descended from Marrano Jews, this places The
Passion of the Christ in an entirely different perspective.

This infiltration of the Hebrews into the innermost heart of
religions and nationalities, whereby they still preserve their former
religion and their organizations in secret, has really formed
Israelite Fifth Columns in the bosom of the other peoples and the
different religions; for if the Jew has gained entrance into the
citadel of his enemies, he is active there, follows orders and
carries on an activity which was planned in the Jewish secret
organizations. This aims at controlling the people from within,
whose conquest was resolved upon, as well as the control of his
religious institutions, and to attempt to attain the decomposition
of the same. (Pinay, p.249)

We may assume that a Marrano Jew, strategically positioned as James Caviezel to
influence the masses, is taking orders from the High Cabal, the Prieur de Sion,
which has determined to destroy and rid the world of every vestige of
Christianity. Protocol 17, point #3 announces a time when the nations will judge
the Roman Church, and its hierarchy and ecclesiastical system will be
overthrown. When the Prieur de Sion comes out of the closet, according to the
Protocols, the Learned Elders will hypocritically play the peacemaker, while the
World Court passes judgment on the Papal Court. The charge will be deicide,
the act of murdering God, i.e. murdering the lineal descendants of Jesus Christ. In
a mighty act of vengeance, the Papal Court will be turned over to the Knights
Templar for execution, whereupon the Prieur de Sion will replace the Pope with
their own Black Pope, a Merovingian priest-king who will preside over a one
world religion:

When the time comes finally to destroy the papal court the
finger of an invisible hand will point the nations towards this court.
When, however, the nations fling themselves upon it, we shall
come forward in the guise of its defenders as if to save excessive
bloodshed. By this diversion we shall penetrate to its very bowels
and be sure we shall never come out again until we have gnawed
through the entire strength of this place.
The King of the Jews will be the real Pope of the Universe, the
patriarch of an international Church. (Protocols of Zion)

The Papal decree for the arrest and execution of the Knights Templar was
announced on October 13, 1307. Ironically, on October 13, 2004, the ancient
Sanhedrin was revived in modern Israel. This body, which arranged for the
crucifixion of Jesus Christ two thousand years ago, will most likely oversee the
implementation of the abovementioned Noachide Laws.

Also, on October 13, 2004, James Caviezel addressed an All Day Eucharistic
Prayer Vigil at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception
in Washington, D.C. One devoted Caviezel fan recapitulated the speech:

The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate
Conception in Washington, D C, the most striking, beautiful place
of worship you will find in the United States. I attended the
Basilica Eucharistic Prayer Vigil on October 13, 2003.
Among other things, it was the ideal place to not only view the
ten-minute extended preview of Mel Gibsons upcoming film,
The Passion, but to also listen to the star, Jim Caviezel, give a
closing talk to the all-day prayer vigil...
...Jim, Mr. Caviezel, gave us, the audience, food for
thought...and a job to do. He said the world is on a moral decline
and it is up to us to fight it. We are to go out, and in a public place,
practice our religion, so everyone can see we are not ashamed, nor
are we afraid to do this. He followed this by a quote.
I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of
tyranny. Youve come to fight as free men, and free men you are.
What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight? Fight and you
may die. Run, and youll live. At least a while. And dying in your
beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the
days from this day to that...for one chance... just ONE CHANCE to
come back here to tell our enemy that they may take our lives, but
they will never take OUR FREEDOM!!! Every man dies, not
every man really lives.
That quote is from the film Braveheart.

What? A devout Catholic quoting Sir William Wallace, the Merovingian
nobleman who instigated the Scottish revolt aided and abetted by the Knights
Templar, thereby providing a place of refuge for Templars who would be fleeing
Europe? Caviezels participation in the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception on
October 13 brings to mind an old Cathar prophecy:

There is an old Cathar saying: Every 700 years, the laurel will
grow green again. The dawn arrests of the Templars were in
October, 1307. Perhaps one reason for the current burgeoning of
interest in all things Templar, a colleague once told me, is because
we are nearly at the seven hundredth year--2007. (1034)

The demise of the Roman Catholic Church is prophesied in the book of
Revelation, chapter 17, which describes in graphic detail the destruction of the
Great Whore:

So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw
a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of
blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was
arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and
precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of
abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her
forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE
GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman
drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the
martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great
admiration... And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven
heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth... And the
ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the
whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her
flesh, and burn her with fire.Rev.17:3-6,9,16

Although The Passion of the Christ is represented as a Roman Catholic
production, this is the exoteric interpretation of the movie, calculated to deceive
the ignorant masses. Which explains why virtually all exposes of The Passion
film are formulated rehashes of the heresies of the Catholic Church which ignore
the Gnostic occultism that pervades the movie at a deeper level. This device is
known as an occult blind, that is, it is designed to carry an open symbolism
acceptable to the uninitiated, yet at the same time, to hide a more profound
meaning accessible only to those familiar with Arcane symbolism. (Ovason, p.
218) Esoterically, The Passion of the Christ is not a Catholic production at all,
but is rabidly anti-Catholic and loaded with occult messages for those who
understand the secret doctrine, which is to destroy all forms of Gentile
Christianity.

Much ado has been made about the Ugly Baby carried by the androgynous Satan
in The Passion of the Christ. When interviewed by Christianity Today Mel
Gibson revealed the age of this Baby to be precisely 40 years old!

But what about the ugly baby?
Again, said Gibson, its evil distorting whats good. What is
more tender and beautiful than a mother and a child? So the Devil
takes that and distorts it just a little bit. Instead of a normal mother
and child you have an androgynous figure holding a 40-year-old
baby with hair on his back. It is weird, it is shocking, its almost
too muchjust like turning Jesus over to continue scourging him
on his chest is shocking and almost too much, which is the exact
moment when this appearance of the Devil and the baby takes
place.

An androgynous mother holding a 40-year old baby with hair on his back distorts
the mother-child motif just a little bit???

Mel Gibsons view of the Devil also misses the mark:

When asked why he portrayed Satanan androgynous, almost
beautiful being played by Rosalinda Celentanothe way he did,
Gibson replied: I believe the Devil is real, but I dont believe he
shows up too often with horns and smoke and a forked tail. The
devil is smarter than that. Evil is alluring, attractive. It looks almost
normal, almost goodbut not quite.
Thats what I tried to do with the Devil in the film. The
actors face is symmetric, beautiful in a certain sense, but not
completely. For example, we shaved her eyebrows. Then we shot
her almost in slow motion so you dont see her blinkthats not
normal. We dubbed in a mans voice in Gethsemane even though
the actor is a woman Thats what evil is about, taking something
thats good and twisting it a little bit.

Is this how evil appears? Good, but with a twist of evil? What saith the Scriptures
about the personification of Satan? According to Gods Word, Satan would take
on the appearance of Mel Gibson (or any of the Evangelical sycophants who
promoted this movie) rather than the malevolent-appearing character of Rosalinda
Celentano!

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan
himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no
great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of
righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. (II
Cor. 11:13-15)

Judging by the success of James Caviezels performance in The Passion of the
Christ, mankind is primed for a Hollywood-type Jesus to appear on the world
stage. Yet the prophet Isaiah foretold that the Messiah would lack the physical
attractiveness that is so highly esteemed by the world: ...he hath no form nor
comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire
him. (Is.53:2) We do NOT even tenuously think that James Caviezel is the
Antichrist but, given this Messianic prophecy, it seems important to consider the
converse of Isaiahs words:


Will the Antichrist look like this?





Or more like
this?



Which raises two more questions and the point of our inquiry...
Will the Antichrist be Jewish?
Is the Conspiracy Jewish?
The issue of a Jewish Antichrist is dealt with in some detail in Janet Mosers
report, The Lost Tribe of Dan: Early Christian and Jewish Views on the Identity
of the Antichrist. This report is based on the evidence of Scripture that the
Antichrist will be a Jew of the apostate tribe of Dan. Neither shall he regard the
God of his fathers...nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
(Daniel 11:37)

Is the conspiracy Jewish? It seems reasonable that those who are making plans to
rebuild the Temple of Jerusalem where a practitioner of witchcraft will be
enthroned, per Dan.8:25, would be apostate Jews who reject the sinless Messiah
sent by God who commandeth all men every where to repent. (Acts 17:30)
These heretical Jews have a radically different concept of what their messiah
ought to be, as the lesbian singer Joan Osborne intoned a few years ago, just one
of us. In other words, a messiah closer to the versions of Jesus presented in the
Gnostic gospels, the Talmud and New Age books like The DaVinci Code:

The legend of the Holy Grail is a legend about royal blood.
When the Grail legend speaks of the chalice that held the blood of
Christ...it speaks, in fact, of Mary Magdalene the female womb
that carried Jesus royal bloodline... Behold...the greatest cover-up
in human history. Not only was Jesus Christ married, but He was a
father...
The Sangreal documents simply tell the other side of the Christ
story. In the end, which side of the story you believe becomes a
matter of faith and personal exploration, but at least the
information has survived. The Sangreal documents include...the
Purist Documents thousands of pages of unaltered, pre-
Constantine documents, written by the early followers of Jesus,
revering Him as a wholly human teacher and prophet. Also
rumored to be part of the treasure is the legendary Q Document...
Allegedly, it is a book of Jesus teachings, possibly written in His
own hand...
And these four chests of documents were the treasure that the
Knights Templar found under Solomon's Temple... The documents
that made the Knights Templar so powerful. The documents that
have been the object of countless Grail quests throughout history.
(The DaVinci Code, pp.249-56)

Jesus Christ prophesied of the false messiah who would be acceptable to the
apostate Jews when He said, I am come in my Fathers name, and ye receive me
not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. (John 5:43) In
his own name suggests that genealogical credentials will be used to validate the
legitimacy of the false messiah of Israel, which is precisely the obsession of the
Merovingian bloodline that blasphemously claims descent directly from Israels
kings, David and Solomon and even Jesus. These claims of messianic blood,
however baseless, are expedient for the Merovingians to achieve world
hegemony.

The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown is merely a primer for neophytes, a thriller
intended to introduce unbelievers and unstable Christians to the Merovingian
heresy. However, hardcore occult literature and the Gnostic gospels present Jesus
as an Essene master who was adept in the mysteries of the Cabala. In this context,
the Merovingian Christ would appeal to Jews who prefer a Cabalist a
practitioner of witchcraft who, albeit human, has attained to godhood and will
teach mankind the pathway to realizing their own inner divinity.

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... Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with
all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all
deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because
they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they
should believe a lie (II Thes.2:3-4, 9-11)

Arguments against a Jewish conspiracy usually include the following:
The global bankers and the owners of transnational
corporations who conspire to overthrow Western
civilization and restructure society are not
exclusively Jews but include Gentiles as well.
Do we know this for a fact? If the dispersed Jews have been taking Gentile
surnames for two millennia, as well as concealing their Jewish identity, who
knows if power elites perceived to be Gentiles are not in reality crypto-Jews?
To promote the idea of a Jewish conspiracy is anti-Semitic and
defamatory of all Jews.
This is hardly the case, for the conspiracy is primarily occultic and not all Jews
are Cabalists, and even fewer are members of the High Cabal. Many Jews eschew
the idolatrous paganism of the Cabalists, who have already demonstrated they will
exterminate their Jewish brothers, who follow the Torah, to achieve their
conspiratorial aims. In fact, Bible prophecy foretells the fate of the Jews---that
two thirds will be destroyed, yet there will be a remnant, a third of Jewry, which
is persecuted by the Antichrist system, but protected by God:

And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD,
two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left
therein. And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will
refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried:
they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is
my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.
(Zech.13:8,9)

The term anti-Semitism involves a number of fallacies, one of these being that
all of the Semitic people are of Hebrew descent. It is a fact, however, that the
Hebrews comprise only 10% of world Semites. Dr. Alfred Lilienthal observed
that, In fact, it is the Zionists who have been anti-Semites starting from the holy
land of Palestine and ending with a worldwide movement against Muslims and
Arabs who form 90 percent of the Semites.

Another misconception, fostered by failure to understand the history of Israel, is
that the international Hebrew community is religiously and politically monolithic
and that criticism of one faction within this community amounts to prejudice
against all people of Hebrew descent. In fact, most theories of a Jewish
conspiracy condemn all Jews and fail to take into account the schism that split
ancient Israel, which was precipitated by the idolatry of the tribe of Dan.

There is weighty evidence that tribe of Dan were the progenitors of the
Merovingians. This evidence is presented in The Lost Tribe of Dan, which also
explains why the tribe of Dan is still at war with the tribe of Judah. In brief,
Samsons riddle to the Philistines is really a prophecy: Out of the eater came
forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. Judg.14:14 The riddle
recalled an incident when Samson turned aside to see the carcase of the lion:
and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion. And
he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and
mother, and he gave them, and they did eat... Samsons prophecy suggests that
the tribe of Dan intends to destroy the tribe of Judah and inaugurate their own
messiah who will rule a world kingdom from Israel, not Judah. From the carcass
of the young lion (destruction of Judah) the tribe of Dan (symbolized by bees)
will produce a Golden Age (symbolized by honey).

Specifically, the Antichrist of the tribe of Dan would rule from the northern area
which was occupied by Dan, namely Mount Sion, also called Mount Hermon
(Deut.4:48) This Canaanite territory was chosen by Dan because it was the
location of the sacred site, Mount Hermon. Located on the 33 latitude and
longitude, Mount Hermon/Sion is where the Nephilim (fallen angels) descended
per Genesis 6. This accounts for the bestial nature of the Antichrist and his
ancient lineage. (See: Heeding Bible Prophecy: Mount Sion/Hermon)

THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN

Since the designation Jew belongs exclusively to the tribe of Judah, only the
tribe of Judah is Jewish. Other tribes of Israel who call themselves Jews are
appropriating to themselves an ancient birthright which is not rightfully theirs, for
the Messiah would descend through the tribe of Judah. Revelation 2:9-10 refers to
the synagogue of Satan as them which say they are Jews, and are not. In His
message to the church at Smyrna, Jesus spoke of this group as a synagogue, that
was not Jewish:

I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich)
and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and
are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. I know thy works, and
tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the
blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are
the synagogue of Satan. Fear none of those things which thou shalt
suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye
may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou
faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

The establishment of the synagogue, according to the Jewish Encyclopedia, was
of ancient origin and, therefore, the ancient Israelites would have had synagogues
which continued in both kingdoms subsequent to the great schism:

By the time [the synagogue] had become the central institution of
Judaism (no period of the history of Israel is conceivable without
it), it was already regarded as of ancient origin, dating back to the
time of Moses (see Yer. Targ., Ex. xviii. 20 and I Chron. xvi. 39;
Pesi. 129b; Philo, De Vita Mosis, iii. 27; Josephus, Contra Ap.
ii., 17; Acts xv. 21).

We may infer from Revelation 2:9-10, that a portion of the northern kingdom of
Israel, which was dispersed after the Assyrian invasion, settled in Smyrna in Asia
Minor. Furthermore, that these Israelites claimed to be Jews and, after the death of
Christ, persecuted His Church in that city. The bishop of Smyrna during the first
part of the second century was the famous Polycarp who was burned at the stake
sometime around the year 155. That Jews were behind Polycarps martyrdom is
evident in the Letter of the Smyrnaeans to the Church at large:

When this was proclaimed by the herald [that Polycarp
confessed himself to be a Christian] the whole multitude both of
Gentiles and of Jews who dwelt in Smyrna cried out with
ungovernable wrath and with a loud shout, This is the teacher of
Asia, the father of the Christians, the puller down of our gods, who
teacheth numbers not to sacrifice nor worship.... These things then
happened with so great speed, quicker than words could tell, the
crowds forthwith collecting from the workshops and baths timber
and faggots, and the Jews more especially assisting in this with
zeal, as is their wont...
So [the Evil One] put forward Nicetes, the father of Herod and
brother of Alce, to plead with the magistrate not to give up his
body, lest, so it was said, they should abandon the crucified one
and begin to worship this man--this being done at the instigation
and urgent entreaty of the Jews, who also watched when we were
about to take it from the fire, not knowing that it will be impossible
for us either to forsake at any time the Christ who suffered for the
salvation of the whole world of those that are saved--suffered
though faultless for sinners--nor to worship any other.
For Him, being the Son of God, we adore, but the martyrs as
disciples and imitators of the Lord we cherish as they deserve for
their matchless affection towards their own King and Teacher.
May it be our lot also to be found partakers and fellow-disciples
with them. The centurion therefore, seeing the opposition raised on
the part of the Jews, set him in the midst and burnt him after their
custom.

The Lord Jesus also referred to the synagogue of Satan in His message to the
Church at Philadelphia:
Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say
they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to
come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved
thee. (Rev. 3:9)
According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, St. Ignatius of Antioch later sent to the
Christians of Philadelphia an interesting letter warning them against the Jews
(Funk, Die apostolischen Vtter, Tbingen, 1901 pp 98-102). Ignatius of
Antioch had also contended with the Judaising heresy in his church at Syria from
the late first century until his martyrdom in Rome c. 110 A.D. The Encyclopedia
Britannica states: Ignatius apparently fought two groups of heretics: (1)
Judaisers, who did not accept the authority of the New Testament and clung to
such Jewish practices as observing the Sabbath, and (2) the Docetists...

IGNATIUS THEOPHOROS (Greek: God Bearer) (d. c. 110,
Rome), bishop of Antioch, Syria, known mainly from seven highly
regarded letters that he wrote during a trip to Rome, as a prisoner
condemned to be executed for his beliefs. He was apparently eager
to counteract the teachings of two groups--the Judaizers, who did
not accept the authority of the New Testament, and the Docetists,
who held that Christ's sufferings and death were apparent but not
real. The letters have often been cited as a source of knowledge of
the Christian church at the beginning of the 2nd century. Ignatius
represented the Christian religion in transition from its Jewish
origins to its assimilation in the Greco-Roman world.

ZIONISM: OF GOD OR SATAN?

MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, simply defined, is that portion of the
Gentile Church which is controlled by the Synagogue of Satan. The Great Whore
has been riding this Beast lo these many centuries, seducing multitudes with the
Babylonish apparel of her princes, her mystical rites, idolatrous worship and her
brotherhood of spiritual elites, whose monasteries are fronts for homosexual and
occult activity. After having exploited Christianity to establish a global kingdom,
the Beast will eventually overthrow the Great Whore and remove the mask,
revealing its Jewish identity. Until then, the Synagogue of Satan will continue to
make use of the Mother of Harlots to obtain its immediate objective---reconquest
and repossession of the Holy Land.

Scriptural promises abound that God Himself will regather the House of Israel and bring them
into their own land.

And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand
for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his
rest shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the
Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the
remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from
Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from
Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And he
shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the
outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from
the four corners of the earth. The envy also of Ephraim shall
depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall
not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. (Is. 11:10-13)

Note, in the first passage below, Gods opinion of Israels treatment of the nations
which graciously hosted the Diaspora, as well as His reason for restoring them to
their homeland:

And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed
through the countries: according to their way and according to their
doings I judged them. And when they entered unto the heathen,
whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said
to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out
of his land. But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house
of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I
do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy
name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither
ye went. And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned
among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of
them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the
Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes. For
I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all
countries, and will bring you into your own land. (Ezekiel
36:18-24)

Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole
house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our
hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. Therefore prophesy and
say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I
will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your
graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. (Ezekiel 37:11)

For more than a century, the Zionists have been gathering their fellow Israelites
from all over the world. Shall we conclude then, that by bringing the Jews to
Israel, Zionism is therefore a movement of God and should be supported by
Christians? This movement is not the fulfillment of God's promise to regather
Israel, per se, but is Satan's counterfeit of Bible prophecy to establish the world
kingdom which he will rule through the Antichrist from Israel. Satan is, in fact,
using Zionism to regather the Jews to Israel for another Holocaust which will take
place during the Tribulation period.

Within Jewry there is a movement which has opposed the Zionist Movement from
its inception. Neturei Karta, which means Guardians of the City, is comprised
of ultra-Orthodox Jews who believe that the present condition of the Jew is a
reflection of divine wrath. One of its chief proponents, I. Domb, wrote in The
Transformation: The Case of the Neturei Karta:

The course of events culminating in the destruction of the
Sanctuary, was unfolded in a miraculous way, as we have been
told by our Sages: 'Verily, hands full of Fire descended from
Heaven to burn the Temple of Gd . . . Gd has crushed the strong
in our midst . . . In His anger He cut off all the pride of Israel.
At the time of our expulsion, we were not physically weaker
than at the time of our entry into Eretz Yisrael, nor were our
enemies more formidable. We were banished by divine decree--not
by the hazards of war and the defeat. Moreover throughout our
long Galut, the calamities which have befallen us in its course,
continue to defy explanation in purely natural and physical terms.
Likewise, no convincing rational explanation can be advanced in
support of the persistent phenomenon of antisemitism, extending to
many periods of history and many different and widely separated
territories and the uniqueness of the intensity... This hostility and
the extreme forms of savagery inflicted on us by our persecutors
must be attributed to factors other than those of human causation.
(pp. 9-10)
But when we Jews who have remained true to our faith, ponder
over our future, we have to think in divine terms, in terms of Gd's
promises to us through the prophets, of the redemption according
to divine revelation with everlasting joy and happiness, which the
advent of the Messiah will inaugurate, as is plainly written in our
Torah, and which far transcends the highest aspiration and
advantages that Zionism can offer the Jewish People, or, for that
matter, even the greatest good to which any other nation can
aspire. (p. 14)

I. Domb further maintains that the Zionist Movement and its precursor, Reform
Judaism, have removed the Jews from observance of the Torah and substituted in
its place the secular humanism that characterizes 95 % of world Jewry today.

The way was prepared for Zionism by the reform movement or
the so-called Haskala with its teaching that the laws governing the
world could all be understood by human reason. The influence of
the Haskala began to undermine the pillars of Judaism, and once
the infection had spread to the Jewish masses, Zionism, the faithful
offspring and disciple of the Haskala Reform, arose to continue the
work of its father and to apply its teachings to the Jewish people.
The Haskala and Zionism were mutually dependent in the process;
the former breached the wall of the citadel of the faith, and the
latter, disguised in an imitation of Jewish garb, entered through the
breaches in order to carry on the work of destroying the main
structure. (p. 7)

The secularization of Judaism has been systematically achieved through the
Zionist campaign:

...when Zionism reached its zenith and engulfed almost all
sections of Jewry, an active Zionist campaign for the estrangement
of the Jewish people from the Torah was intensified. Laxity, and
among certain sections, even animosity towards our religion on the
part of Zionism, is not incidental but a direct outcome of Zionist
ideology.
Throughout the period which has elapsed since Zionism first
appeared on the Jewish scene, Zionists fought religion by different
methods. Their writers and ideologists have, either openly
attacked, or discreetly ridiculed Judaism. The anti-religious bias of
Zionism was by no means confined to writings and speeches, but
was expressed in a practical manner in logical sequence from the
theory... They established schools and sought to eliminate every
trace of religious thought, from the minds of the children attending
them. As their numbers grew, they were determined to seize power
and dominate communal life; they gradually managed to seduce
large numbers of Jews from their Torah observance, and bring
them under the influence of irreligious and even anti-religious
circles... All this leads to one obvious conclusion: that Zionism is
basically the reverse of our Emuna [faith] and religious ideology.
To become a Zionist means to conceive Jewry as something
temporal and earthly, utterly divorced from all the divine
connections, upon which the whole of Emuna is based. (pp. 21-2)

I. Domb argues that Zionism does not constitute the fulfillment of God's plan for
the Jews but rebellion against it. This, in turn, will incur more of God's wrath
upon the Jews, according to Lubavitch Rabbi, Shulem Ben Shneersohn:

ShouldHeaven forbidthe Zionists succeed in obtaining a
country as they hope, they will defile and desecrate it with their
abominations and their evil deeds and thus prolongHeaven
forbidthe length of the Exile. (p. 233)

Previously, I. Domb mentioned that, among the Zionists there arose a group
called the Canaanites, which will partially account for the abominations that the
will defile the nation of Israel upon full acquisition of the land. Keep in mind that
the ancient Canaanites occupied the far northern territory surrounding Mount
Sion/Hermon which was later occupied by the apostate Tribe of Dan:

A group which calls itself the Canaanites and consists of those
who have had a complete Zionist education... The Canaanites claim
perfectly naturally that they belong to the ancient culture of the
original Canaanite nation which occupied the land now called
Israel in ancient times. Therefore, they claim, that they must
acknowledge and re-adopt the ancient culture of the country with
the main principles involved in that culture... What has happened is
perfectly simple. The Zionist heresy, with its compete and essential
denial of the whole content of Judaism and of the Holiness of the
Torah, has created a vacuum which cannot long be unfulfilled... the
reason for the appearance of this group and the Canaanites myth
which it propagates, is t provide something that can fill the
vacuum... it is a clear and unmistakable sign that the uprooting of
the Torah, has succeeded to such an extent as far as the younger
generation is concerned, that they are ready to grasp with
enthusiasm at even the most fantastic of myths. (pp. 87-88)

Although the Zionist Movement is not the fulfillment of God's promises to
regather the tribes of Israel, neither will ultra-Orthodox Jewry represent the
144,000 Jews from the twelve tribes (excluding Dan) who will stand with Jesus
Christ on Mount Zion. The true 144,000 of Revelation 14 have not defiled
themselves with women, which is a reference to the pagan sex rites that will be
prevalent during the Tribulation Period, per Rev. 9:21. However, ultra-Orthodox
Jewry which comprises the membership of Neturei Karta derives its ideology
from the Talmud and the Kabalah, both of which elevate fornication to a virtue.
The great Lubavitcher rabbi previously quoted by I. Domb would be a
Kabbalist, a practitioner of Jewish occultism who awaits the Lubavitcher messiah.
(See: Under the Law) Domb himself embraces the Gnostic notion of the divinity
of man as being the exclusive privilege of the Jew.
...This order of reward and punishment, reward for mitzvot and
punishment for averoth, is a privilege for us Jews, and constitutes
the loftiest elements of our constitution, the divine quality
inherited from our forbears and finally confirmed on Mount
Sinai.
For this Torah is constituted according to divine conceptions,
far above human grasp. Consequently, in the majority of both
mitzvot and averoth, the remoteness from human reasoning,
manifest in this formulation is self-evident; but even those which
seem logical enough and useful to human society, do in fact
contain higher divine aspects, incomprehensible to the minds of
mortals. Only the Jews, the people who are endowed with
divine quality, have been conditioned to undertake and perform
these sacred functions. The order of reward and punishment is the
direct result of their eternal and indissoluble union with Gd, as
no other human has the possibility of being included in that
order; thus only a Jew can evoke either the punishment or the
reward involved in these acts, the commandments of a purely
Gdly aspect. (p. 8)
We are forced to conclude that ultra-Orthodox Jewry is simply the religious
extreme of the dialectic in professed, but not actual, opposition to secular
Zionism. The dialectical process, which is designed to polarize the masses and
destabilize the status quo in order to restructure the social order, will ultimately
unite world Jewry in a Babylonian religious system based on Kabalism, which is
the common denominator of Zionism and ultra-Orthodox Jewry.

Psalm 119:91 says of the Lord, ...for all are thy servants which reveals that
all men, even the wicked, are fulfilling the sovereign purposes of God whether
they realize it or not. So the Zionists, who are funded by Rothschild money and
think they are so brilliant as to outwit, not only the Christians, but God Himself,
are in fact opposing themselves (Acts 18:6) and, in the final analysis, signing their
own death warrants. Likewise, the ultra-Orthodox Kabbalists.

Scripture is explicit that when the Jews return to Israel, they will face the
Tribulation period. In order to control Israel from Jerusalem, the tribe of Dan
must exterminate Judah and usurp its place in the Messianic lineage. Even so,
Scripture foretells that, after the slaughter of two-thirds of Jewry is allowed to
take place, the Lord Jesus Christ will save Judah:

The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the
glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of
Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah. In that day
shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is
feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of
David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them. And
it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the
nations that come against Jerusalem...
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD,
two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left
therein. And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will
refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried:
they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is
my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God. (Zech.
12:7-10; 13:8,9)

And so we are given to understand that God has not cast off His people forever, but a glorious
day awaits the remnant of Judah when the Lord Jesus Christ will reveal Himself.

And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the
inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications:
and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they
shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be
in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn...
And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine
hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in
the house of my friends. (Zech.12:10-11,13:6)

The apostle Paul spoke of this remnant of Jews, the elect who will be saved by
grace and not by the works of the law.

I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also
am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not
what 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. And if by grace, then is
it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be
of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more
work. What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh
for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
(Romans 11:1-7)

But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of
the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of
men, but of God. (Romans 2:29)

When Jesus reveals himself to His brethren, it will be a family affair, and
profoundly moving. The Biblical type for this reconciliation is the patriarch
Joseph, who wept as he revealed his identity to his brethren...and hastened to
graciously forgive them for their past treachery.

Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood
by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And
there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known
unto his brethren. And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the
house of Pharaoh heard. And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am
Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer
him; for they were troubled at his presence. And Joseph said unto
his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near.
And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye
sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life.
For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there
are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor
harvest. And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in
the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. (Gen.
45:1-7)

Joseph being a type of Christ, his father and brothers prefigured the House of
Israel in the last days and the seven year famine foreshadowed the Tribulation
period prophesied in the New Testament, most notably in the Book of
Revelation. In the Book of Romans, the apostle Paul has foretold that, as God
was gracious and merciful toward the House of Jacob during the seven years
of famine in Egypt, He will graciously and mercifully restore the believing
remnant of Israel during the time of Jacobs trouble.

Another prophetic type, the conversion of Paul, who deemed himself the chief of
sinners for his former hatred of Jesus Christ and violent persecution of His
Church, demonstrates Gods mercy and covenantal salvation of believing Israel at
the Second Coming of Christ:
In view of the preceding chapter on Israels rejection,
the question is asked Hath God cast away His People? Is
there nothing more in store for national Israel? God forbid.
If it were so, Gods gifts and calling would be subject to
repentance and He would not be the faithful, covenant-
keeping God. He foreknew His people Israel and that
foreknowledge embraced all their sad history of failure and
apostasy. The Apostle Paul speaks of himself as an Israelite
of the seed of Abraham. He demonstrates in his own
experience the fact that God hath not cast away His people.
Hating Christ, having zeal for God without knowledge, a
persecutor of the church, he had obtained mercy that in him
Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for a
pattern to them which should hereafter believe on Him
(1Tim.1:16). His unique conversion must be looked upon
as a prophetic type of the conversion of the remnant of
Israel, when the Lord comes. As Saul of Tarsus saw Him in
the glory-light, so the Israel living in the day of the second
Coming of Christ will behold Him (Zech.12:10; Rev.1:7).
This vision will result in their national conversion...

A mystery is made known. Blindness in part has
happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come
in. The fulness of the Gentiles means, the full number of
the saved, gathered out from among the Gentiles, who
constitute the church, the body of Christ. And when the
body is joined to the Head in glory, the time of the coming
of the Lord for His Saints (1Thes.4:17), the Lord will turn
again to Israel. All Israel, that is, the all Israel living in the
day will be saved, when the Deliverer comes out of Zion
(Isaiah 59:20; Psalm 14:7). It is the second, visible,
personal and glorious coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. He
will turn away ungodliness from Jacob and take away their
sins. Between the coming of the Lord for the Saints, who
will meet Him in the air, and His coming in great power
and glory, are the days of Jacobs trouble, when the nation
will have to pass through the fires of tribulation and the
wicked among Israel will be cut off. And after He has come
and has taken away their sins, all the great prophecies of
Israel's earthly glory will be fulfilled... A doxology closes
this dispensational section of the epistle. (A.C.
Gaebeleins Annotated Biblical Commentary)

* * *
I say then, Hath God cast away his
people? God forbid... God hath not cast
away his people which he foreknew... I say
then, Have they stumbled that they should
fall? God forbid: but rather through their
fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for
to provoke them to jealousy. Now if the fall
of them be the riches of the world, and the
diminishing of them the riches of the
Gentiles; how much more their fulness? For
if the casting away of them be the
reconciling of the world, what shall the
receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is
written, There shall come out of Sion the
Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness
from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto
them, when I shall take away their sins. As
concerning the gospel, they are enemies for
your sakes: but as touching the election, they
are beloved for the fathers sakes. For the
gifts and calling of God are without
repentance. For as ye in times past have not
believed God, yet have now obtained mercy
through their unbelief: Even so have these
also now not believed, that through your
mercy they also may obtain mercy. For God
hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he
might have mercy upon all. O the depth of
the riches both of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! how unsearchable are
his judgments, and his ways past finding
out! (Romans 11)
