But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil." The 1828 Noah Webster Dictionary defines: Reprove: To blame, to convince of a fault, or to make it manifest, to excite a sense of guilt. Circumspectly: Cautiously; with watchfulness every way; with attention to guard against surprise or danger. Matthew 24:24: "...if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." II Corinthians 2:11: "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices." II Chronicles 7:14: "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." From: Junior Watchman Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2012 2:44 PM To: drjohnson@ix.netcom.com Pope Benedict XVI present while a Catholic Deacon Invokes Lucifer during the Easter Vigil Mass Play: At 27 minutes & 30 seconds these words are spoken: Flammas eius Lucifer matutnus invniat: ille, inquam, Lucifer, qui nescit occsum. Christus Flius tuus, qui, regrssus ab nferis, humno gneri sernus illxit, et vivit et regnat in scula sculrum.

Which translates: Flaming Lucifer finds Mankind, I say: Oh Lucifer who will never be defeated, Christ is your son who came back from hell, shed his peaceful light and is alive and reigns in the world without end. http://thirdsecret.org/content.php?303-Benedict-XVI-invokes-Lucifer-during-Easter-vigil-Mass Ok now we have the closet translations of this by university level latin speakers.. SO YES.. the Catholic Whore invoked lucifer! And this is the even more confirming part is the comment by Nikolaos supposedly proving how the word Lucifer can be used as a reference to Christ Jesus (if you are the Catholic CHURCH) that is, in order to make people believe you were referring to JESUS! Wow! Satanic genius with the double-meanings. -- Junior Infacundus Member "May the morning star find his flames, That Lucifer who knows no setting, your son Christ, who, once he returned from hell, shone serenely upon the human race, and lives and rules unto perpetuity." Edit: Fine, go with the "official" translation. [explcitive] conformist =P 26 minutes ago Report #4 Reply Nikolaos Aedilis The second Lucifer probably refers to Christ as well. How confusing it is for the word to mean both Satan and Jesus simultaneously... Scott Johnsons Teaching: Easter/Ishtar: Paganism Repackaged Scott, you got to check this out I was digging away and doing some re-connections with latin sources and re-studying my Latin again and I found the original version that was used at the Easter Roman Vigil. The Exsultet or Easter Proclamation,[1] is the hymn of praise sung, ideally by the deacon, before the paschal candle during the Easter Vigil in the Roman Rite of Mass. It is sung after a procession with the Paschal Candle before the beginning of the Liturgy of the Word. It is also used in Anglican and various Lutheran Churches, as well as other Western Christian denominations. Look at how demonically genius this was, as in the version below (which is right out of the catholic handbooks) it first shows the Latin and then the English translation, the translation uses the word MORNING STAR now this is the thing.. that would have been printed on every single missal handed out at the roman mass. But.. when you hear the CANTOR sing the CANTO, he clearly says LUCIFER!! They did a BAIT AND SWITCH! so here is the CATHOLIC translation of the Latin from the 1970 Roman Missal, which should shock you a bit more: You are Morning Star that never sets find this flame still burning:

replace Christ, you Morning Star, who came back from the hell, and shed his new light on all mankind, your star, who lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen The NIV Bible Calls Lucifer Jesus Christ (1) Just about everybody knows the word "Lucifer" as another name for Satan. The word "Lucifer" is found one time in the King James Bible. Isaiah 14:12 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! (2) But what about the NIV? The word "Lucifer" is clean, bald-headed gone and now this creature is identified as the "morning star". Lucifer is the "morning star" in the NIV. How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! (3) So we know that in the NIV the "morning star" is a negative, evil figure. Right? He was fallen from heaven. He was cast down to the earth. Can we find the "morning star" anywhere else in the NIV? Yes! The following passages in the NIV show the "morning star" as Jesus Christ! But the NIV just called the fallen creature of Isaiah 14:12 "morning star". Lucifer AND Jesus are ONE in the NIV! NIV: Revelation 22:16, "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you [1] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star." NIV: 2 Peter 1:19, And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. NIV: Revelation 2:28-I will also give him the morning star. NIV Reader, can you say to the "lord" OUT LOUD, "Oh, lord, Thank you for giving me the NIV. It is proper to call Jesus a fallen creature. Jesus and Lucifer are the same. Thank you, father." If you can, the lord and father you are praying to is--SATAN. If you cannot say this, you need to UTTERLY DESTROY your perverted "bible". Don't even use it to "help" you. Get a King James Bible so you can have the true word of God. This is very serious. http://www.jesus-is-lord.com/nivsatan.htm Scott Johnsons Teachings: The NIV, the Satanic Bible and Homosexual Translators July 29th, 2007 The KJV Defended as Gods Preserved Word August 10th, 2008 | 6 Comments | Filed in Current Events and Bible Study The KJV Defended as Gods Preserved Word (Part 5) August 31st, 2008 | Comments Off | Filed in Current Events and Bible Study The KJV Defended as Gods Preserved Word Parts 3 & 4

August 17th, 2008 | Comments Off | Filed in Current Events and Bible Study For Catholics, Another False Door to Absolution Is Reopened: Indulgences are back

Karen Nassauer, left, and Octavia Andrade at church in Queens. Indulgences are being offered at churches in New York City. By PAUL VITELLO February 9, 2009 The announcement in church bulletins and on Web sites has been greeted with enthusiasm by some and wariness by others. But mainly, it has gone over the heads of a vast generation of Roman Catholics who have no idea what it means: Bishop Announces Plenary Indulgences. In recent months, dioceses around the world have been offering Catholics a spiritual benefit that fell out of favor decades ago the indulgence, a sort of amnesty from punishment in the afterlife and reminding them of the churchs clout in mitigating the wages of sin. The sale of Indulgences, commonly regarded as a purchase of forgiveness and a permit to indulge in sin. Christianity, as taught in the Bible, condemns such a traffic and it was the protest against this traffic (in part) that brought on the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century.

Started in 1190

Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him (Romans 5:9). In Whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace (Ephesians 1:7). For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8&9) Tts 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Tts 3:6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; Tts 3:7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers. But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: (I Peter 1:18-19). Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own Blood He entered in once into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption for us (Hebrews 9:12). But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ (Ephesians 2:13). And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself; by Him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven (Colossians 1:20). How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:14). Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus (Hebrews 10:19). Wherefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered without the gate. (Hebrews 13:12). But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (I John 1:7). And they overcame Him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. (Revelation 12:11). The fact that many Catholics under 50 have never sought one, and never heard of indulgences except in high school European history (Martin Luther denounced the selling of them in 1517 while igniting the Protestant Reformation), simply makes their reintroduction more urgent among church leaders bent on restoring fading traditions of penance in what they see as a self-satisfied world. (Comment: Evidently the author of this article is a Roman Catholic) Why are we bringing it back? asked Bishop Nicholas A. DiMarzio of Brooklyn, who has embraced the move. Because there is sin in the world. Like the Latin Mass and meatless Fridays, the indulgence was one of the traditions decoupled from mainstream Catholic practice in the 1960s by the Second Vatican Council, the gathering of bishops that set a new tone of simplicity and informality for the church. Its revival has been viewed as part of a conservative resurgence that has brought some quiet changes and some highly controversial ones. The indulgence is among the less noticed and less disputed traditions to be restored. But with a thousand-year history and volumes of church law devoted to its intricacies, it is one of the most complicated to explain. Mat 23:1 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, Mat 23:2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: Mat 23:4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay [them] on men's shoulders; but they [themselves] will not move them with one of their fingers. Mat 23:5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, Mat 23:6 And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, Mat 23:7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. Mat 23:8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, [even] Christ; and all ye are brethren.

Mat 23:9 And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Mat 23:10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, [even] Christ. Mat 23:11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. Mat 23:12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. Mat 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in [yourselves], neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Mat 23:14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. Mat 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Mat 23:24 [Ye] blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Mat 23:25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Comment: & even worse in the case of Catholicism a legion pedophilic clergy going back to its inception. Mat 23:26 [Thou] blind Pharisee, cleanse first that [which is] within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. Mat 23:27 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. Mat 23:28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. According to church teaching, even after sinners are absolved in the confessional and say their Our Fathers or Hail Marys as penance, they still face punishment after death, in Purgatory,

before they can enter heaven. In exchange for certain prayers, devotions or pilgrimages in special years, a Catholic can receive an indulgence, which reduces or erases that punishment instantly, with no formal ceremony or sacrament. There are partial indulgences, which reduce purgatorial time by a certain number of days or years, and plenary indulgences, which eliminate all of it, until another sin is

committed. You can get one for yourself, or for someone who is dead. You cannot buy one the church outlawed the sale of indulgences in 1567 but charitable contributions, combined with other acts, can help you earn one. There is a limit of one plenary indulgence per sinner per day. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/10/nyregion/10indulgence.html?pagewanted=all Our Lady of China will merge Buddhism with Rome by ivarfjeld How many Roman Catholics knows that their church claims "Jesus" appeared as a Chinese? And His "mother" as a Chinese empress.

The Chinese "Messiah" and his mother will tell the Chinese to accept the Pope as their head. Lets see what the Roman Catholic website "Catholic culture" writes about "Our Lady of China": In April 1900, a force of ten thousand rioters attacked Tong Lu. The soldiers, in senseless rage, started to shoot into the sky. Then suddenly they fled, frightened, and never came back again. According to the legend, a woman in white appeared above the settlement, and the rioters' bullets were aimed at her. When the apparition did not fade, attackers had not even time to reorganize because a strange horseman put them to flight. Soon after they had disappeared beyond the horizon. Father Wu, a Chinese priest, confessed to his flock that he invoked the help of Mary. A new church was built on the site and Father Wu placed a picture of Our Lady on the main altar. He asked the painter to dress Our Lady in the royal robes of the dowager Empress TziHsi. The image of the Blessed Virgin in the royal robes of the pagan Empress, with the Christ Child on her knees, is vivid expression of Chinese tradition. Source: Catholic Culture. Comment by ivarfjeld:

To get the Chinese onboard the Universal One World religion, obviously there must a Roman Catholic Chinese copy of "Jesus". Our Lady of China is the one and only to have delivered a "Chinese Messiah". She herself dressed up as a Chinese empress. A better display of blasphemous activity cannot be found than this Roman Catholic claim of a appearance of "Mother and child" as two Chinese deities. There is hardly any religious fraud the Vatican is not willing to promote as long as it contributes to the emergence of a "global church", that will accept the Pope as their head. The Pope has approved this falsehood, as recoded by AsiaNews on 16th of May 2008: Pope: Prayer to Our Lady of Sheshan On the Day of Prayer for the Church in China, Benedict XVI asks the "Mother of China and all Asia" to support the faithful, that "they never be afraid to speak of Jesus to the world, and of the world to Jesus", and "always be credible witnesses to this love, ever clinging to the rock of Peter". Source: AsiaNews. Here are some more pictures of the Babylonian prostitute, and her false Messiah.

Our Lady of China. A Roman Catholic copy cat, ready to deceive millions. Luk 21:8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.

Catholic Chinese art that make the Mesisah a boy who was raised by an empress in China.

Our Lady of China will lead many Buddhists towards a universal worship of her son as a "god".

Hey brother Scott, I wanted to bring this to your attention, because the way I conduct myself with these USB Drives reflects on your ministry, and I understand the level of trust you have given me. So please don't think this is asking you to market the USB Drives; but I think its becoming necessary to explain clearly to the listeners why they are coming from Australia, and not the USA. ... and I'm concerned some think I'm doing this on the sly and profiteering from your ministry :( Always your brother in Christ Jesus our Lord Paul ----------------------------------------This is a response to a question as to why the USB Flash Drives are coming from Australia: Hi Mate, I'm a fellow listener as yourself, and I live in Australia. I've been listening to Contending for Truth since 2007, and have downloaded all of his teachings since he began in 2006 on SermonAudio. Since then I've gotten to know brother Scott quite well, and last November I asked him if he would like me to publish his recordings on eBay, for listeners who wanted a complete archive. Every cent made from these USB Drives goes either to buy more USB Drives, or is donated to directly to Scott's Ministry. Hope this clears things up for you :) Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
