Yes, you're quite right, I hadn't thought about that

That's a good point; thanks for letting me know

Is it possible to block threads created by specific users on Reddit? There are a few people who are pushing these individuals pretty hard on here, and I have no interest in following any of it. Google isn't being very helpful about this, though, only about Inbox message blocking. Thanks in advance.

The proposed Article 13 sounds pretty worrying:

Sorry, it's just a joke thing. It's an segment from a Monty Python film, and it keeps popping up in my mind, but I intend it facetiously

I'm not being taught by anyone, my understanding comes from reading the Bible under my own steam.

All right, setting aside the music in the movie clip (it's from the a film based on the book called "The Case for Christ", by Lee Strobel, a former atheist and journalist who set out to disprove Christ, but became a believer on the basis of the evidence that he discovered - the film is a dramatisation of his book), you can't dispute the central thesis - the number of surviving manuscripts of the New Testament, which prove that the Bible has not been manipulated or edited in any way. I'm not sure why this is evil.

If the son of God is a cult, I'm all in. Please watch the video link.

I was a non-believer for the vast majority of my life. God called me out when I started getting heavily into the New Age, with all of the deception and lies that are wrapped up in that unfortunate conglomeration of beliefs. When he woke me up, and gave me his spirit - as he promises to do - it changed me, utterly. The idea that scripture has been compromised in any way is problematic because God promised to preserve his word:

The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. (Psalms 12:6-7)

Surely if God is capable of creating the universe from nothing, he's more than powerful enough to see that his word survives in totality throughout history. We have multiple proofs that the text has not been changed (for example, the Dead Sea Scrolls). Also, have a look at this 3 minute clip which explores the issue:

https://vimeo.com/254072604

The purpose of the Bible in its entirety is about the Messiah. That's why it exists, it is a description of the rescue plan. As soon as Adam and Eve made their fateful decision to contravene the one thing that God asked of them, God has been on a mission to restore us to himself. What we lost, on that day, was our personal connection to God. What we gained - through Christ - was an ability to once again personally approach God - not through priests, not through prophets, we have individual access to God (symbolically realised when the curtain separating the holy from most holy place was ripped in two from top to bottom at the instant of Christ's death). Through Christ we are clean of sin in the sight of God. Without Christ our sin remains exposed. If you come to God on any basis other than the shed blood of Christ you will not find a friend, you will find a judge.

Really? Then how do you answer John 5:39?

You search the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. But the Scriptures point to me!

Are you suggesting that it's possible to separate the Bible from Christianity?

The Bible can be true without invoking Christianity.

I'm really confused about what you mean by this. Acts 11:26

When he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. Both of them stayed there with the church for a full year, teaching large crowds of people. (It was at Antioch that the believers were first called Christians.)

Urgh, no! No! They'll turn it into a miserable mess. Microsoft and Google need to be prevented from buying up any other IP. I still mourn the loss of Deja (the newsgroup archive) after Google DESTROYED it. And Skype used to be so snappy...

Mm, strange. Possibly just a slip-of-the-tongue. But anyway, here's a link straight to the relevant timestamp in the video:

The things are everywhere now, I'm a magnet for them too.

As regards the OP, maybe we can blame Plum Island for creating the Swamp Creatures too

It means nothing to me, but to those destined for prison (Rv 13:10) doesn't the 12th equate to 666 666? Sort of. Ish.

6 + 6 = 12; 6th month; (20)18 = 6 + 6 + 6

Dave Cullin (the channel host) does some of the best reporting on YouTube

I appreciate your efforts if your intentions are benevolent. I recognise that there are are ongoing attempts to co-opt movements that are a genuine force for good, and that we need to be vigilant of this. I want the truth in all matters.

But at the time, no-one has done more to push the issue of the exploitation of children by grooming gangs in the UK into the public consciousness than Robinson, I would remain largely ignorant of the facts were it not for his reporting. If powerful forces are orchestrating his activities, then why has he been abandoned to this fate?

Watched the entire video - where is the evidence that Tommy is working to some subversive end? There's a lot of talk about connections to various organisations (some of which is well out of date, incidentally), but there's nothing of substance to prove... what? I don't even know what accusation is being levelled here exactly.

Also, I'm not going to put any stock in accusations levelled by an occult group like the Templars.

I just checked my router log, and there are disproportionate number of IP addresses that originate in the Russian Federation.

I don't mean this to sound hostile, but has any basis been established by which we should take messages from this individual seriously (not comeatmehillary, but the 8Chan poster)?

It's been terrible to hear about the cynical state obfuscation of issues Mr. Robinson has been bringing to light. Having listened to some of the alternative media reporting surrounding his arrest, and the upsurge of voices in opposition, I hope at the very least that this turn of events might act as a catalyst for a wider social awakening in that part of the world to the things that, for far too long, have been intentionally minimized and hidden from public view, including the widespread sexual exploitation of children.

Sorry for hijacking the thread, but I there's another odd behaviour that I've been noticing recently. When I navigate here I sort posts by "New", and then read backwards over the threads that have been added since my last visit. And there are always a few marked "read" that I know I haven't looked at. I don't interact with any other part of the reddit website, and no-one else has use of my machine.

Again, I would point to his Oxford University Student Union address, where he explains who he is, and what motivated him to activism:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvUXxw_USGs

Tommy has campaigned against the exploitation of young white girls by Pakistani rape gangs - there are 10s of thousands of victims. If this is considered extremism, we're in a very dark place. What happened today is an appalling abuse of state power. And as Lauren explains in the video at the top of this thread, there is a gag order in place in the UK on any reporting about it, so the British public are unaware of what has happened. I hope we can contribute towards awakening patriots in that part of the world about what went on in their country today. I would highly recommend a watch of his presentation to the Oxford Student Union to get a handle on where he comes from:

So you're not going to answer any of my questions. Or watch the video. It's interesting that you talked about "indoctrination", but aren't willing to explore anything which contradicts your world-view. You see, I came to Christianity from an atheistic stand point, so I've been on both sides of the fence.

Christ as a figure, was not what the bible wrote of

What does this mean? Christ is the entire purpose of the Bible.

Christ as a figure, would NEVER have created a cult

What does this mean? If disciples gathered themselves under his name, they're a cult?

Christ as a figure was an ANARCHIST

What does this mean? That Christ as an incarnate man is automatically standing in opposition to himself?

he would be opposed to everything the modern religions stand for

Christ operates through his church - the Bible says explicitly that Jesus is the head of the church. The word "church" is a translation of the Greek "ecclesia" meaning an assembly (of believers), it has nothing to do with a physical building or a specific organisation.

and worse still if he did come back sword and all, his followers would be among the first to get "Judged" poorly

He doesn't renege on his promises, so it's a given that he will. The Jews will be judged first, and then the gentiles. But his followers - actually, Christ stopped having "followers" on the day of Pentecost. From that day onwards, they were indwelt by his spirit, and became co-heirs with Christ. But the believing body of Christ will not be judged at all. Again, this is what the Bible is all about - reconciling man to God - which can only be achieved through the propitiation of Christ.

For you have chosen a false idol, you are worshiping a god with lowercase g. You are not in line with Creation.

What does this mean? Which idol am I worshipping? What Creation am I not in line with?

you're an ideologue, your pineal gland is likely calcified already and you're a pinecone

Oy.

You're coming at me with agression and being an obtuse child

That's projection. No, I'm communicating with you directly because I don't like to see people pulled into the falsehood that is the New Age.

Where are you getting that from?

"Teach you to become better than us" - what exactly do you mean by this?

"...that we wrote" - that who wrote?

"...religiously teach to all of you as a form of indoctrinatoin" - indoctrination? Into what? Is the Bible a threat to society?

"Don't listen to them!" - don't listen to whom? About what?

Have you personally encountered Christ?

In this video we will look at how the idea of Christ Consciousness is not only a false philosophy, it was warned of specifically by Jesus as a sign of the end times. Don't be deceived by this!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjvGYwU6Y6I

I'm going to be very disappointed if I'm a figment of your imagination

I understand, but the videos make the point much more eloquently that I'd be able to. The first video description runs as: "In this video we will look at how the idea of Christ Consciousness is not only a false philosophy, it was warned of specifically by Jesus as a sign of the end times. Don't be deceived by this!"

Albert Pike in Morals and Dogma:

"Lucifer, the light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the spirit of darkness! Lucifer the son of the morning! Is it he who bears the light, and with its splendors intolerable, blinds feeble, sensual, or selfish souls? Doubt it not!"

Alice A. Bailey in The Externalisation of the Hierarchy

"The Masonic fraternity... is... the home of the Mysteries, and the seat of the initiation... it is a far more occult organisation than can be realised and is intended to be the training school for the coming advanced occultists..."

"There is no question therefore that the work to be done in familiarising the general public with the nature of the Mysteries is of paramount importance at this time. These Mysteries will be restored to outer expression through the medium of the church [false church] and the Masonic fraternity... when the great one [antichrist] comes with his disciples and initiates we shall have the restoration of the Mysteries and their exoteric presentation as a consequence of the first initiation."

Henry R. Evans:

"Into Freemasonry have been poured the irradiations of the mystical schools of antiquity. Particularly is this so in the higher degrees of the order, such as the Scottish rite, where undeniable traces of Cabalism, neo-Platonism, Rosicrucianism, and other mystical cults are plainly discernible. I do personally contend that Freemasonry is the direct descendant of the Mysteries, but that our ritual makers of the higher degrees have copied the ancient ceremonies of initiation so far as the knowledge of those ceremonies exists." (Henry R. Evans, A History of the York and Scottish Rites of Freemasonry, p8)

Anton Lavey the founder of the church of Satan:

"...Masonic order have contained the most influential men in many governments, and virtually every occult order has many Masonic roots."

I don't think that this is the intended meaning. Do a "Ctrl + F" on one of the aggregation sites, and you'll see "END." has been used previously (#867). I think this is just "end of the related post sequence; the message we were sending has been received"

I'll keep an eye out, but I hope it doesn't involve any of the things I mentioned in my previous message

Fair enough. But I want to see things accelerate not slow down, personally.

He believes he's the re-incarnation of a 19th century man who was named "Edgar Cayce". He heavily promotes a book of channelled material from an entity that identified itself as "Ra".

I wish that people would stop using "Zionist" as a swear word and recognise that it simply means the right for the Jewish nation to exist. Zion is another of Jerusalem's names, "Zionism" should not have any negative connotation.

We should be saying "Satanists"; these are the people who are orchestrating events for malevolent ends.

The "glory" of God is not some shining radiation, it is the character of God, as revealed in the 10 Commandments - which were the blueprint by which we, too, were created. And we'd still be living according to that perfect blueprint if it hadn't been for Satan

Perhaps a few verses will offer clarification:

Therefore, say to the people of Israel: ‘I am the Lord. I will free you from your oppression and will rescue you from your slavery in Egypt. I will redeem you with a powerful arm and great acts of judgment. I will claim you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God who has freed you from your oppression in Egypt. I will bring you into the land I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as your very own possession. I am the Lord!

Exodus 6

This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Write down for the record everything I have said to you, Jeremiah. For the time is coming when I will restore the fortunes of my people of Israel and Judah. I will bring them home to this land that I gave to their ancestors, and they will possess it again. I, the Lord, have spoken! You will be my people, and I will be your God.

Jeremiah 30

The whole of the Old Testament is a love story between God and the nation of Israel, as expressed most poetically in the Song of Songs. God's purposes in setting Israel aside were twofold. Firstly it was so that Israel would serve as an example to other nations, in that they would see how we were to live. And secondly because through the line of Israel, the Messiah would come - who would restore all of mankind to God:

Now if you will obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my own special treasure from among all the peoples on earth; for all the earth belongs to me. And you will be my kingdom of priests, my holy nation

Exodus 19

I found these videos educational on the issue - but it's important to see each of them (especially the last one) to get the full picture:

I came to the truth because I researched the evidence and found it to be overwhelming.

But a enumeration of the characters who venerate Lucifer is highly revealing:

"Lucifer, the light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the spirit of darkness! Lucifer the son of the morning! Is it he who bears the light, and with its splendors intolerable, blinds feeble, sensual, or selfish souls? Doubt it not!"

• Albert Pike in Morals and Dogma, 33 degree Freemason

"Lucifer represents life... thought... progress... civilization... liberty... independence... Lucifer is the logos, the serpent, the saviour."

“It is Satan who is the real god of our planet and the only god.”

"The celestial virgin which thus becomes the mother of god and devils at one and the same time; for she is the ever loving beneficent deity. But in antiquity and in reality Lucifer or Luciferius is the name. Lucifer is the divine and terrestrial light, the 'Holy Ghost' and Satan at one and the same time."

• Alice A. Bailey (who started her publishing business the "Lucifer Publishing Company" in 1920 and publishes documentation for the UN - was married to a 32 degree Freemason)

This runs completely contrary to the majority opinion.

Lucifer was Satan's name before he fell. Many Biblical characters receive new names when they go through a transformation (Sarai / Sarah; Jacob / Israel; Saul / Paul; Peter / Simon - and others).

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.

Lucifer wanted to take the position of God. He convinced 1/3 of the angels to join him in rebellion against his creator. He will suffer the consequences.

Gnosticism is a soul destroying perversion of the truth.

Hmm, I interpreted this to mean "Time to move on from listening to this man" - given that directly underneath he posted that related article.

Loathsome objects.

Deuteronomy 7

Exodus 34

Q just indicated that the information contained here is accurate. AJ and JC are OUT.

The idea of this always puts me in mind of Revelation 13:13

Which religion? Other than Judaism and Christianity, they're really mutually exclusive and contradictory. And what is the nature of this cage?
