52 Magazine CHRIST ~ Vol. 12:1 March 2000 DO YOU KNOWDespatch JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOUR? Make a personal check-up now. Tomorrow may be too late. Be sure you are truly saved. Read the Bible verses in a King James version. 1. Are you trusting only in Jesus Christ and His death on the Cross for salvation? ( 1 Corinthians 1:17). 2. Do you know with all your heart that good deeds and going to church will never save you? ( Galatians 2:16). 3. Have you come to God and admitted before Him that you are a sinner? (Romans 3:10; Romans 3:23). 4. Have you humbly repented, changed your mind about sin? (I John 1:9). 5. Have you confessed to the Lord, and have you been made clean in the Blood of Christ through faith in His sacrifice for you? ( I John 1:7 ). 6. Do you believe Gods promise that you will never be separated from Him again, never lost because of Christs death and righteousness alone? (Romans 8:35-39). 7. Are you utterly sure that you will go to heaven when you die? Not by your own works, but by Christ taking your punishment for sin? (Ephesians 2:8,9; 1 John 5:11). If you cannot answer all those questions in the affirmative, then come to the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation by Grace through Faith alone and you will be born-again by the Holy Spirit. A PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I know I am a sinner. I know I have not trusted in Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord. I want to do so now. I have nothing to stand on but His Blood shed for me and Your Word. I repent before You, and ask for Your Divine forgiveness in Christ Jesus. I receive Him as Saviour now, and as my only way to get to Heaven. I accept by faith that you have given me Eternal Life in Christ, according to Your Word. I want to serve You forever. Thank You Lord Jesus for coming into my life. Amen. For as many as received him, to then gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: ( John 1:12).

The most wonderful thing about Gods Word is not doctrine but GOOD NEWS! Scripture is singing with Good News, every page has its share. Let us then end Despatch with Good News, as every Christian publication should do. Consider this astonishing challenge in Isaiah 59:1,2: Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God, your sins have hidden His face from you so that He will not hear. What is the good news in this verse, surely nothing you might say. But the GOOD NEWS is that ... Gods arm is never too short to reach out to you and your loved ones. His ear is never too dull to hear your prayers and cries. His face is only hidden from you because you will not make things right with Him! The GOOD NEWS is that He always hears those who do not hide their sins from Him. There is no separation from God when we come humbly to Him with our caps in our hands, and with our mouths full of repentance. We can never be separated from God by anything but our lack of repentance and sin. That is GOOD NEWS! We cannot be separated because we are black, white, short, fat, tall or thin. There is no separation from God because of our race or gender. He does not separate us from Him because we have poor education, or because we are ugly or unintelligent. Nothing separates us but our sin. God invites us all to end that problem through accepting ... Christ Jesus as Saviour. That is the GOOD NEWS of the Gospel. Jesus is at home in my situations of failure if I admit them. (Dr. Wesley Nelson). Email: [email protected] Web Site: http://www.despatch.cth.com.au/ Publish: Beauty for Ashes 4 issues @ $15p.a.

This conference held in Australia was an integral part of the activities which brought together the churches for the Union called Australian Christian Churches (ACC).

Here are just a few of the leaders, many of their names will be well known to the reader: Christians know from God's Word that all pagan religions are devilish, and that we are forbidden by God to involve ourselves in any pagan religions: "13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from [these things] that shall come upon thee. 14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: [there shall] not [be] a coal to warm at, [nor] fire to sit before it. 15 Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, [even] thy merchants, from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save thee."

The hype and preparations, the expectations about a new start for mankind and vague expectations of some new, space age global reality emerging when the first morning of AD 2000 dawned. The fire-works, the celebrations, the surge of optimism thrown forth from the media - a new bright thousand years for mankind, a New Age of humanistic Utopia begins. And then there were the Christians, they had settled into various camps in regard to the Y2K bug. Some camps went all the way with Y2K - they prepared on a grand scale for the expected bug. They were the ones who rushed away into the wilderness with enough food in their trucks to feed them for three years or so. Some went part of the way with Y2K - prepared a buffer on a minor scale (just in case.) Then the others were there as well. They buried they heads in the sand, bought Christmas presents instead of canned corn beef, and tried to pretend it would all go away. Quite an end of millennium experience wasnt it? Two or three days after New Years Eve, I found myself sitting on my quiet front verandah roaring with laughter - it was the most astonishing, mindboggling, stunning experience I have even been through! No wonder we got so tired by the new year. Now we are in March, AD 2000. We might as well be in 1999, there is no difference as far as any of us can see. The new millennium dawning was like passing from Tuesday to Wednesday of any previous week! No announcements by the New World Order, no up-up-andaway with Y2K, the beggars didnt even show the golden top coming down on the pyramid on our television sets! My own massive relief about not having to cook tinned sausages over the barb-que, or having to empty our human waste into a pit in the backyard, has been replaced with a bleak is that all there is, is that all there is? Well, the next part of that well-known song goes on so lets keep dancing - but that is NOT ON! What do we believers in the Lord Jesus Christ and Gods Word do now? How do we evaluate what is now happening? How do we proceed? ...till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will. ( Daniel 4:25). Many of those who had no information about the NWO or Y2K have smirked at the Christians and mouthed out, w-ell-ll - we knew there was no Y2K bug, and no problems. We knew that the Rapture wouldnt happen and that the NWO is a mere conspiracy theory. How smart people can think themselves, how wise they are after the event. Most of those smirkers, in their hearts, were as unsure as anyone else just weeks ago. They were as relieved as we all were when we passed over that dreaded date and entered into smooth waters. Yet, is it smooth waters or smooth waters carrying us all along on the top of a tidal wave? It must surely be the latter. These facts, I believe, should be grasped firmly by our readers: 1. The Y2K bug was so real, so dangerous, that our country of Australia alone spent 12 billion dollars to make sure we escaped disaster from its effects. Have you got it?

We have thrown the Gospel net across nation after nation. Bonnke claims that in 1994, all 25 million homes in the British Isles were reached with this booklet with over 15,000 local churches cooperating and more than 70,000 decisions for Christ. Bonnke said that in 1995, all 40 million households in German-speaking Europe received this booklet by mail with over 40,000 people responding to the call of salvation and being referred to a local church in their area. Now, Bonnke claims that the Holy Spirit told him that North America was to be his next target. Thus, his plan is to mail his booklet, FROM MINUS TO PLUS - THE EPIC OF CHRISTS CROSS to all 125 million private house holds in the USA and Canada within less than one week this September. Those responding by sending in a decision card will be referred by computer to the nearest registered church in their area. Of course, churches are being urged to register their promise of cooperation so they can receive referrals. True believers should realize that Bonnke, like all Charismatic leaders, mixes truth with error. Along with a gospel message comes an undercutting of the gospel by adding to and taking from Gods Word by claiming direct messages from God from Jesus - from the Holy Spirit which, among other serious dangers, leads people to ecumenical cooperation with liberal Protestants and Roman Catholics, both of which preach 49 a false gospel and are under Gods curse.

We have had a long break for a holiday - we were very tired and could not go on. We are feeling better now, although we are not exactly filled with energy. Acupuncture is not for Christians ! Acupuncture is ancient, occult Chinese medicine. It works basically on the principles of invoking meridians and Ch'i Ch'i is the occultic, pagan idea of 'energies' which are invisible and spiritual being in the body. There is NO proof at all that meridians, Ch'i, yin and yang actually exist, and specific acupuncture points have never been proved to exist either! If they do, they are just spiritual entities! Modern day doctors are increasingly profession belief that the Ch'i energy fields and meridians are as real as blood coursing through blood vessels. This however is not true! They are imaginary at best and demonic at worst. Email: [email protected] Web Site: http://www.despatch.cth.com.au/ Publish: Beauty for Ashes 4 issues @ $15p.a.

One such occurrence being the fact that people were crawling around on their hands and knees looking for gold dust. My friend said however, that it seemed that only she and the lady were in disagreement as everyone else thought the meeting was great. Am I out of the Spirit? she asked. I began to pray and research on this phenomenon and told my friend that I thought it was good that she is seeking the Lord and testing the spirits to see whether they are of God. I told her that it seemed inconsistent with the Jesus of Nazareth of the Bible who, though He was rich, became poor and didnt have a place to lay His head, would be handing out gold fillings and sprinkling people with gold dust - seeing as how He is the same yesterday, today and forever. In doing a search on the Internet, I came across your article The Experience Controversy. Thank you, thank you for the wonderful insight you have communicated! Your article was one of the best most balanced ones Ive read. I too have found myself cornering myself as I have communicated this past week with another friend who is very positive about these strange manifestations. You said, The backlash against the modern day experience-centred fiasco has become extreme in itself. If one opposes an error too strenuously one often goes too far, and ends in a counter error. A legalistic, doctrine-centred, coldly intellectual faith is NOT the Faith of our Fathers, it is not New Testament teaching. How wonderfully you have worded this! I just had to write you and say thanks. Pray for us here in America. We are in quite a mess and its getting worse as people stray further and further into experience, and out of the Word.

Our government is not stupid! The whole business of the Y2K bug is NOT OVER YET, dont rest up - pray for souls. There could well be problems over the next eighteen months or more. The bug DID NOT leave us unscathed, as train crashes, plane crashes, nuclear arms scares, electrical supply problems, sewage problems, fuel pollution and many other disasters clearly showed. If we could put together all that happened in the world due to Y2K bugs in the last months we would be horrified! It is not over yet either. Ignore the birds with their heads in the sand, let them smirk on down there. Dont expect announcements which will alert the masses to what is really happening with the Y2K bug, the powersthat-be are not that silly. They didnt tell you before, they wont own up now. Rapture, on the contrary, and the change from 1999 to 2000 had absolutely nothing to do with Bible prophecy. What does have to do with Bible prophecy is the rise of the global, political and religious union which involves the whole world. This has been predicted to occur, it is the false kingdom of the Antichrist. It seems 100% certain now that the New Age New World Order is this amalgamation which the Bible predicts. This phenomenon is with us, it is not going away it is in control of the planet right now. Before it consolidates into its ultimate union, according to the Bible, the Rapture will take place - when, no one knows. God does not see fit to inform us. If you have been taught that the turn of the century should have brought the Rapture or the return of Christ you have been deceived, and do not know your Biblical scriptures on the matter. 2. The New World Order HAS acted right on schedule, and is geared for MASSIVE movement this year, with conferences and activities all over the globe. Be not deceived, beloved of God. Our country of Australia is targeted with a grand meeting of the World Economic Forum ( NWO heads) in Melbourne, immediately before the Olympic Games in Sydney. You think nothing much is going on this year? At insert in despatch there is a list of just a few of the activities of the international power barons for the year 2000 ( that we know of! ). 4. The reactions of some Christian believers in regard to the Y2K bug have been less than worthy of them! And dishonouring to God in my opinion. Some have seemed quite put out that the Y2K bug did not create utter chaos in society. As though their own credibility had been destroyed by the close shave we all suffered. Like Jonah in other days they said, but I told everyone there was going to be a disaster, I got food in and an electric generator - and now I look a fool! At least something of a major nature should have shown them I was right! This is like Jonah getting shirty because Ninevah wasnt destroyed. After all, Jonah said it would be destroyed! No, friends, just be grateful that we are not guarding our tank water, watching our neighbours suffer without food, and that we can sit and watch the tele news at night in peace. Millions could 3. The people who have imagined that Biblical prophecy indicated that the Rapture and the Second Coming had something to do with the turn of the century, and that because nothing happened then Biblical prophecy has been proved wrong, are way off the planet!

Praise the Lord for His wonderful grace and mercy. May this continue to be our lot as the months go by. The other reaction which has made me personally disappointed is the fury some have shown against people who have given dire and strong warnings about the Y2K bug. As far as I can tell a number of men sincerely and carefully evaluated the state of computers and their programming, were alarmed, and bravely warned others. Perhaps money was made by those who were enterprising, maybe there were hidden motives, I dont know, but the thing is NO ONE knew what would happen, NO ONE. It was responsible action to give others the information on the Y2K bug, and I thank God for those who sincerely did so with the information they had at the time. Anyone can be wise after the event. And all the inhabitants of the earth [are] reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and [among] the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? (Daniel 4:35). ...until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: Which in his times he shall shew, [who is] the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; (I Tim. 6: 14,15). One well-known Christian publication in Australia, Herald of Hope, commented on the false prophets who had been shown up by the non-event of the Y2K bug. Now this is simply not a fair comment, in my book. We heard of no prophecies at all on Y2K, it was serious, scientific fact and sensible reporting, not any airy-fairy prophecy that alerted people. No one should be accused of being a false prophet - men who had the information gave out the alarms as responsible adults. Anyone who has seen the data on Y2K would have to have been very irresponsible to ignore it and shut up. And anyway, the Y2K scare has been proved to be indeed real and disastrous. A list can be requested for $5 from Despatch of just a few of the problems which have already come to pass in USA. UNITY PROCEEDS! The bringing together in unity with a One World Religion for a United World has strange bed-fellows! At first one could not imagine that the Olympic Games, the Vatican, the United Nations, the New Apostolic Reformation of the 21st Century Church, the new united Australian Christian Churches, the Gaia Mother Earth Green Movement and the events in East Timor could have anything in common at all!

[MINI-DESPATCH ~ IN THIS ISSUE AS EDITORIAL] I worked the past thirteen months as a Y2K analyst at Microsoft corporation and the realities of Y2K are known to me personally and technically - also the underlying reality that the opportunity presented itself to the New World Order to move the entire world into their one TIMEDATE STAMP which was the technical capability to have computers running on one time and one date internationally while local computers continue to appear to be running in their local format. This was a massive and brilliant move on the part of the antichrist to create one corporate, national, economic, communication, commerce, military infrastructure globally. More can be said on this - suffice it to say their is a new programming standard called UNICODE that will take this all to the next level.

The Games are used, of course, as a unifying influence for Globalism. There will be much that goes on behind the scenes which we will never know about. But we do know a little about the importance of the Olympic movement for the NWO. MELBOURNE. The World Economic Forum will meet in Melbourne just prior to the Olympic Games. This World Forum has its headquarters in Davos, Switzerland. The Luciferian co-chair of the WEF is Maurice Strong. As we examine the various interactions WEF has through the input and activities of men like Strong the huge union and might of the occult internationalists becomes chilling clear. Our country is being dominated by a Satanic, threateningly real global power! The Olympic Games will be a great propaganda machine for these dictators. Despatch has dealt before with Maurice Strong, but here is a brief outline again: Brief Outline ~ M. Strong Strong is the Canadian oil mogul who was the secretary-general of the UN Earth Summit in Rio and was Gorbachevs collaborator in the composing of the NWO Earth Charter. At the Earth Summit a Declaration of the Sacred Earth was postulated. This declaration was heavily dependent on the teachings of Helena Blavatskys doctrines of Theosophy, with the Divine Nature theme being stressed (nature is god, man is god). Strong communes with the Masters or demonic presences of the New Age. Strong and Gorbachev are bigger powers in the global union (which is proceeding rapidly) than most people realise. Both are workers for Gaia Mother Earth, and involved in many New Age Green Movement organisations including: Aspen Institute; Lindisfarne Association; Baca Grande spiritual centre in Colorado; Green Cross/ Green Crescent and many, many others. Behind them are the United Nations, the Club of Rome and the whole nasty crew.

What is supposed to be Australias own Olympic Games is a mere front for the activities of the New Age New World Order. Strong has declared that this years Games in Sydney will be the GREEN GAMES, a horrifying and open dedication of the games to Gaia Mother Earth! From P. R. [Ind. Researcher Aust.] We get this comment, 19/2/00: Feb. 18 2000. In town the same week as Mr. Samaranch [CF. PAGE ?? FOR O PUS D EI -V ATICAN LINK] to do with SOCOG was Rio Summit man, Maurice Strong, here for the overseeing of the GREEN GAMES. The Sydney Games are supposed to our own Games, with a stated aim. You know, for athletes to compete against each other from all over the world, or so we are led to believe. From what was said by Mr. Strong and one of his off-siders, the Sydney Olympics are to be and known to be, the Green Games!! Strong said he was here to check on the transparency of the Games?? And their ECO SYSTEM performance under the term GREEN GAMES WATCH 2000! Mr. Strong, the chairman of the Earth Council, said that at the moment, the Sydney Games (overall) presented as the Pale Green Games. The Games are, apparently, and according to the Earth Council to check on Sydneys environmental performance? Perhaps Opus Dei, Mr. Strongs Green Machine and Earth Council would like to see Sydney injected with a large dose of Chlorophyll before September comes upon us.

(cf. page 18 for Vatican] A RELIGIOUS TOTALITARIAN RULE. The NWO Green Games is nothing more than another nail in the coffin for freedom here in Australia. The religious beliefs of the totalitarian regime under the Green Mother God, Gaia, have been seen arrogantly displayed in the most recent Olympic Games in other countries. Jean- Rousseau, the prophet of the French Revolution, said this, No state has ever been established without a religious basis. (WILL AND ARIEL DURANT, ROUSSEAU AND REVOLUTION, P.175). This civil religion has been the driving force of every murderous regime in every period of history. The Green Movement is a religious movement, the religion of the Antichrist. The Green Games are a vehicle of power, a show of global unity under Gaia.

The rest are oblivious and go on in their blindness to their destruction. It breaks my heart because those that are going this way are people that need God and need to find the truth but they are blinded by the world and all it has to offer. It is not over yet, I have known this in my spirit for two years. God is not hardly begun. The Bible plainly says that it will be in the midst of people saying peace and safety that sudden destruction will come upon them. The reason it is so sudden will be that they are blind to the truth and blind to the signs of destruction all around them. They cannot discern the signs of the times. They are just like the people that Jesus came and preached to when He was here walking on earth. Blind guides leading the blind. I am grateful to the Lord for all that He has done and given to me. I am busy and working and writing and praying. Do you notice now that the seeming crisis is past that it might be very easy to let down your guard, so to speak, and get drawn right back into old patterns? I can almost feel a pull from the world calling us to come on back and join the party. This will get stronger and stronger and everyone not firmly grounded or planted in Christ Jesus will be pulled right along with the vortex of life as usual and become more and more unconscious of the things of God. The churches will be sucked into this more and more because they did not heed the call of the Spirit to repentance and returning to their first love. 45 is already the beginnings of a famine of truth. I have written a book that is about Truth and getting grounded in the Truth but I wonder if I will ever be able to see it out there changing lives. For truth must change us or we have ignored the truth. Truth sets us free. No one is ever free without Truth in their actions, words, lives and hearts. Jesus is of course the Truth we all need and He sets us free from the curse of sin and death. Praise His Holy Name. We must learn to love Truth above all things because only those that worship God in Spirit and Truth are doing so in a meaningful manner. It is the Truth that men do not want to face. The truth that they are born into bondage to sin and satan and that they need Jesus Christ in order to be free. The denial of the truth is what will subject them to the strong delusion that is already begun to be poured out upon the world. This is from God and only by knowing and dwelling in His Truth will any of us be spared from the lie and delusion that is already coming upon the world. Thank you for sharing your insights and thoughts with me. I appreciate them very much as I always appreciate and love Truth. Jesus is Lord and He is in control.

I live alone and I remember laying in bed watching the celebrations going around the world on New Years day. I was very grateful to the Lord that I woke up with heat, water, electricity and had all my basic needs met because I couldnt imagine what it would have been like if all had failed while I was so ill. I thanked the Lord and prayed and slept and prayed and slept for three days. I remember being totally dumbfounded by the continuing party atmosphere that was on the TV that I let run to just keep me company. I said Lord they are all so oblivious. He said just let them party on. The world will carry on and party on right up to the day of destruction. I think the fact that life seems to be going on as usual is not a blessing for anyone except those that have listened to the Spirit and repented of their love for the world and the ways and things of the world.

WEB COMMENTS ON THE PALE GREEN GAMES: SOCOG has denied that the Sydney Olympics are the pale green games. They prefer the deep green games! In answer to an article in the Sydney Morning Herald [14TH. DEC.1999], SOCOG commented: At no stage did the journalist bother to contact SOCOG for a comment. This is astonishing for an article which purports to address just how green will our Olympics really be? SOCOG is responsible for staging the Games. How can the environmental story of the Games really be told without reference to, or contact with, SOCOG. SOCOG then lists many green environmental initiatives to be undertaken by them for the Games. [WWW_OLYMPIC_UTS_EDU_AU.HTML ] Recent official denigration of our Defence Force seems part of the plan for a global police force. It would not be surprising to hear the government announce that as we cant maintain our internal and external security responsibilities along with our international peacekeeping commitments, so we will hand over our Australian Defence Force to the United Nations. Australia seems to be being used as a pilot system to test out the globalist strategy in many ways. We are already getting a lot of attention from the internationalist this year of the Olympic Games, 2000. On November 14, 1999, John Howard, our Prime Minister, said in one of his surrender speeches, Nobody has an option to say, I wont take globalisation Ill take something else, because there isnt anything else. The concept of a permanent standing army for the UN has been floating for decades.

Walk through the glass doors of Commander's Gallery, past the conventional oil and pastel paintings, and on the other side of the green curtains you'll find a new art medium -- human ashes. Bettye Jane Brokl, a statuesque woman dressed in black, smiles as she points to the grayish powder nestled between the broad strokes of azure blue and bright red. It is here that art, death and immortality intermix. Brokl, whose home is in a state where traditional burials are usually the rule, admits her cutting-edge memorials that use human ashes aren't for everyone. "It's not for people who do not believe in cremation. It takes someone that likes unique things and maybe is into the arts. It's done with dignity and taste. The mourning process is not disturbed here," said Brokl, who has patented her process of sealing ashes under glass. It is an alternative to the urn, she said. This revealed a quote from the Co-Chairmen of the Commission that, THE UN CHARTER IS EVERY COUNTRIES SUPERIOR LAW. ( THANKS TO G. PICKERING IND. RESEARCHER, FOR THIS RUN-DOWN).

The churches of Christendom are being drawn into a modern, more sensible tolerant evangelism which is not the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in reality.

Sound doctrine is What about socialisation? This question is, how much socialising is going on in public schools? Our own children have so many groups of friends on a regular basis, there is no lack of socialisation.

The first two so-called major revisions of the King James Bible occurred within 27 years of the original printing. (The language must have been changing very rapidly in those days.) The 1629 edition of the Bible printed in Cambridge is said to have been the first revision. A revision it was not, but simply a careful correction of earlier printing errors. Not only was this edition completed just eighteen years after the translation, but two of the men who participated in this printing, Dr. Samuel Ward and John Bois, had worked on the original translation of the King James Version. Who better to correct early errors than two who had worked on the original translation! Only nine years later and in Cambridge again, another edition came out which is supposed to have been the second major revision. Both Ward and Bois were still alive, but it is not known if they participated at this time. But even Scrivener, who as you remember worked on the English Revised Version of 1881, admitted that the Cambridge printers had simply reinstated words and clauses overlooked by the 1611 printers and amended manifest errors. According to a study which will be detailed later, 72% of the approximately 400 textual corrections in the KJV were completed by the time of the 1638 Cambridge edition, only 27 years after the original printing! Just as the first two so-called revisions were actually two stages of one processthe purification of early printing errorsso the last two so-called revisions were two stages in another processthe standardization of the spelling. These two editions were only seven years 41 apart (1762 and 1769) with the second one completing what the first had started. But when the scholars are numbering revisions, two sounds better than one. Very few textual corrections were necessary at this time. The thousands of alleged changes are spelling changes made to match the established correct forms. These spelling changes will be discussed later. Suffice it to say at this time that the tale of four major revisions is truly a fraud and a myth. But you say, there are still changes whether they be few or many. What are you going to do with the changes that are still there? Let us now examine the character of these changes. THE SO - CALLED THOUSANDS OF CHANGES Suppose someone were to take you to a museum to see an original copy of the King James Version. You come to the glass case where the Bible is displayed and look down at the opened Bible through the glass. Although you are not allowed to flip through its pages, you can readily tell that there are some very different things about this Bible from the one you own. You can hardly read its words, and those you can make out are spelled in odd and strange ways. Like others before you, you leave with the impression that the King James Version has undergone a multitude of changes since its original printing in 1611. But beware, you have just been taken by a very clever ploy. The differences you saw are not what they seem to be. Lets examine the evidence. (Continued in the full document).

The attacks on the Word of God are threefold: addition, subtraction, and substitution. From Adams day to the computer age, the strategies have remained the same. There is nothing new under the sun. One attack which is receiving quite a bit of attention these days is a direct attack on the Word of God as preserved in the English language: the King James Version of 1611. The attack referred to is the myth which claims that since the King James Version has already been revised four times, there should be and can be no valid objection to other revisions. This myth was used by the English Revisers of 1881 and has been revived in recent years by Fundamentalist scholars hoping to sell their latest translation. This book is given as an answer to this attack. The purpose of the material is not to convince those who would deny this preservation but to strengthen the faith of those who already believe in a preserved English Bible. One major question often arises in any attack such as this. How far should we go in answering the critics? If we were to attempt to answer every shallow objection to the infallibility of the English Bible, we would never be able to accomplish anything else. Sanity must prevail somewhere. As always, the answer is in Gods Word. Proverbs 26:4-5 states: Answer not a food according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit. Obviously, there are times when a foolish query should be ignored and times when it should be met with an answer. If to answer the attack will make you look as foolish as the attacker, then the best answer is to ignore the question. For instance, if you are told that the Bible cannot be infallible because so-and-so believes that it is, and he is divorced, then you may safely assume that silence is the best answer. On the other hand, there are often questions and problems that, if true, would be serious. To ignore these issues would be to leave the Bible attacker wise in his own conceit. I believe that the question of revisions to the King James Version of 1611 is a question of the second class. If the King James Version has undergone four major revisions of its text, then to oppose further revisions on the basis of an established English text would truly be faulty. For this reason, this attack should and must be answered. Can the argument be answered? Certainly! That is the purpose of this book. THE FOUR SO - CALLED REVISIONS OF THE 1611 KJV Much of the information in this section is taken from a book by F.H.A. Scrivener called The Authorized Edition of the English Bible (1611), Its Subsequent Reprints and Modern Representatives. The book is as pedantic as its title indicates. The interesting point is that Scrivener, who published this book in 1884, was a member of the Revision Committee of 1881. He was not a King James Bible believer, and therefore his material is not biased toward the Authorized Version.

A missions strategist, a Fuller think tank genius who has contrived methodologies and strategies for the reintroduction of fake gifts and mission to the churches. He co-authored MC510 Signs and Wonders with John Wimber and took this course globally to every continent. He and John were the implementers of the so-called restoration of the missing holy spirit to the Churches. The Postdenominal Church Movement and AD2000 United Prayer Tract Spiritual Warfare movement are spearheaded by C. Peter Wagner. Involved with him in the work are several dozen church leaders including Francis Frangipane ( copastor with Reuven Doron - working under direct authority of Latter Rain leader James Watt), Ed Silvoso, T. Haggard, Cindy Jacobs, James Morroco, John Dawson, Esther Linisky, Larry Stockstill, Larry Lea et al. FROM NEF: [USA] Dr. Glasser - who defined the technology of progression of integration theory. Basically this was the methodology employed for ecumenism. It is still successfully being used to integrate their doctrines with people globally. The four steps are: 1. Communication (dialogue and consensus) getting people together so they can talk and find areas of agreement...consensus. The most successful strategy for implementing communication has been to hold ecumenical prayer meetings. This has been employed at the city level-regional level, national level, global level, and has been utilised in areas of interest (secretaries, etc.), and among people groups as well...pastors prayer breakfasts, womens prayer organisations (Aglow), Businessmen (FGBMI), denominations, etc. Concerts of Prayer, and Mission America are currently being employed. 2. Fellowship - due to dialogue and consensus they now begin to like one another, have camaraderie. 3. Co-operation - get together around a common goal or project - like March for Jesus, the Bill Graham Crusades, Spiritual Warfare conferences, General of Intercession, Post-denominational Church Seminars. At this level there are still denominational differences. 4. The fourth and final step of integration is Association. This is creating a whole NEW ORGANISATIONAL IDENTITY. Inter-denominational groups were an example, people left their denominations and re-grouped into a new Form. Promise Keepers appears to be a new Form ( even though they adamantly deny this, their group structure promises to Endtime Ministries...Christian Resource Centre [P.O.B. 238, Landsborough.Q. 4550] Ph. 0754941672 Fac. 0754948617 Mob. 0407 636611 Despatch Magazine ~ Vol. 12:1 March 2000 39 THE K.

Not only has God preserved His pure Word over the years, but Scripture tells us clearly that it must never be to added to nor taken away from. God-fearing, Godly men and women have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that what God has forbidden has been blatantly ignored and in fact tampered with over 6,400 times with changes and deletions in the new versions. ( Revelation 22:18,19). The Textus Receptus has over 5,000 manuscripts from which Gods Word has been taken. In the latter part or the 1800s Westcott and Hort (spiritualists) changed the Greek Lexicon and claimed the manuscripts (produced years afterwards) of Vaticanus and Sinaiticus (which by the way disagree in many areas) were the ones to follow. Thinking about this in my prayer time recently it suddenly came to me so clearly why Satan is having such a field day with Christians and the churches. FIRSTLY: Why are Jehovahs Witnesses sticking together so strongly (irrespective of the minority which leave) and why do Mormons have a close-knit following? These two cults I have personally experienced through a relative becoming a Jehovahs Witness some six years ago, and another at one time choosing to join the Mormons. He was baptised into the cult.. Both the Jehovahs Witness and the Mormons have their own bibles not masses of different versions, and they share many common beliefs because their members have the same bible in common. The JWs are of one mind because they share one scriptural book. The Mormons also share one book, and are of one mind. SECONDLY: The Bible being so tampered with - new versions with so many changes and variations - has given many main-stream people different bibles! Almost every person in a church prayer group finds that their bible does not read like your own Bible, or his or her bible! My bible says... is the cry! There are either complete verses deleted or phrases and words changed, or a commentary may say, it should be translated thus. Or perhaps a church will choose one particular version, and then that group will vary from another Christian church in the same town which uses another variation altogether! "Christians" are differing in so many ways because of these changes and deletions. They are not in unity because they have not got a solid foundation to bind them together in the Word. New versions are copyrighted, each new version is a money-spinner as it changes words yet again and makes a new copyrighted version. It must be different from all others to not break copyright. The Precious Word of God, KJV, should be free for all.

Those involved in the Fuller/ US Center for World Missions global enterprises would shock and surprise the reader! Just a few are Richard Foster, Billy Graham was on the board of trustees, Bill Bright was there during the think tank years.....this was a conspiracy! And all these men work in conjunction with David (Paul) Yongi Cho, under the guidance of whom they have modelled their cell group church structure. This cell church structure ( and software) includes an integration technology that ties it to Promise Keepers database, Bethany World Prayer Center, Brigada, et, al. A global database that soon will include every man, woman and child on the earth; where the are, what they are doing, and what ETHNICITY they are! Ethnic cleansing could well be at the root of this monster, and could be a part of a highly kept secret doctrine to eradicate many of those they happily embrace at the moment. Despatch comment: This sounds extreme, but we are dealing with incredible forces and power grabs on the earth RIGHT NOW! 15 Millions of Christian workers are being utilised to bring about their own destruction, all in the name of evangelising the world...How diabolical...Satanic! Not only does this movement rationalise their need for this information based on a purported need to find the hidden people groups and evangelise the world, but countless millions of Christians have been trained up in, and indoctrinated into their methods and mission. Cho has also been active for years, according to Al Dagars celebration 2000 report on Jay Gary [ Despatch has a booklet on Jay Gary and associates] in the CATHOLIC CHURCH as well. It all comes together at the CHO level ( he founded the Church Growth International and is the pastor of what is purported to be the worlds largest Christian church with over one million members!) There is literally not one denominational church organisation today that is not at least partially involved in this movement. Many of whom, I am sure, are incredibly gullible and innocent in their participation. (As with all conspiracies the fewer who know the real agenda the better). However, the theology that these promote speaks for itself, and the dearth of true doctrine is the shame of all who join in this movement. They have been deceived into taking up banners, and taking to the streets in a bold display of power in Marches for Jesus, because they do not understand the Word of God. The plain fact is that Apostasy is prophesied, not end-time revival of masses. What a huge deception this all is!

The Gympie Times, 26/2/2000 Reported a weird event, an unbelievable intrusion into civilian life which occurred in our own state at Rainbow Beach. Families would have been shocked, as there was no prior warnings. Identification was demanded at check points. Could the peace keeping forces be practising for more than work on insurgents from a foreign source? Could they one day intrude like this to find insurgents of a local source? What right has the Army to subject civilians to this kind of stress? I quote: Rainbow Beach was under siege by daylight yesterday as locals woke up to the sound of military vehicles and the sight of accesses blocked by armoured vehicles and barbed wire. The siege will last until tomorrow as about 700 troops of the 6th Royal Australian Regiment carry out the final manoeuvres in what has been an almost month-long major training exercise based on the Cooloola coast from the Armys Camp Kerr. At 4am yesterday the troops moved into Rainbow Beach, sealing off every access to the area from the National Parks boundary to Inskip Point with armoured vehicles, barbed wire, military vehicles and personnel in full combat dress - virtually shutting the town down. The exercise will last 24 hours a day for three days as troops seek out at least 12 characters in town who are believed to be 'insurgents from a foreign source. The troops will continue blockading and patrolling the area day and night, using the latest equipment including night vision goggles as they seek out the enemy. The exercise is the final training for the 6th RAR before they embark to East Timor in April as part of the United Nations peace keeping force. The operation is being led by Major John McCaffery, who himself was among the first into East Timor when last years trouble broke out.....Providing support to the battalion are 10 light armoured fighting vehicles brought down from Darwin for the exercise. Weighing about 13 tonnes and valued at between $2 and $3 million each, the vehicles made an imposing sight at the check points.... Rainbow Beach locals took yesterdays event in their stride, but many visitors heading for the beach and Fraser Island were wide-eyed as they came over the hill and around a bend into the township to find it blockaded....

These quotes from Michael de Semlyen are revealing: Green issues, so important now politically, have been important to the Vatican from before the beginnings of ecological concern in the 1960s, and have been linked to the Roman Churchs leadership of the wider peace movement.

Although it appears the "mindless masses" may soon be informed that Isis and Osiris are fictitious characters, their origins can be traced to an actual historical figure -- Nimrod: And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord. And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel. . . Genesis 10:8-10 Alexander Hislop's volume, The Two Babylons, chronicles the global dispersion of the Babylonian mystery religion of Nimrod and Semiramus from remote antiquity to the present era. "The Babylonians, in their popular religion, supremely worshipped a Goddess Mother and a Son, who was represented in pictures and in images as an infant or child in his mother's arms. . . From Babylon, this worship of the Mother and the Child spread to the ends of the earth. In Egypt, the Mother and the Child were 35 worshipped under the names of Isis and Osiris.* [* Osiris, as the child called most frequently Horus. BUNSEN.]. . .It was to glorify Nimrod that the whole Chaldean system of iniquity was formed. He was known as Nin, "the son," and his wife as Rhea, who was called Ammas, "The Mother." The name Rhea, as applied to Semiramis, had another meaning from what it had when applied to her, who was really the primeval goddess, the "mother of gods and men." [Hislop, p. 20] Scripture not only identifies the origins of the Babylonian system upon which the Egyptian mystery religion is based, but describes its demonic nature and catastrophic denouement. Pope John Paul II's historic visit to the Egyptian pyramids would seem to argue that Mystery Babylon the Great of Revelation 17 is not confined to the Roman Catholic Church, but encompasses the entire decentralized system of mystery religions -- which will be led by a Masonic Pope to the ash heap of condemned humanity. And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant. Jer. 51:37 And for this cause God shall send them a strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. II Thess. 2:9 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

Mystery Babylon To what end is this seemingly eternal quest for the lost civilization of Egypt? One important clue is found in The Templar Revelation, which acknowledges that Isis and Osiris may never have existed but were instead "archetypes" of the ideal state to which mankind will supposedly attain in the New Age: "Isis...was worshipped as a holy virgin. But although she was also mother of Horus, this presented no problem to the minds of her millions of followers. For whereas modern Christians are expected to accept the Virgin birth as an article of faith and an actual historical event, the followers of Isis (Isians) and other pagans faced no such intellectual dilemma. To them, Zeus, Venus or Ma'at may or may not have once walked the earth: what mattered was what they embodied. Each of the pantheon ruled over his or her own area of human life; for example, the Egyptian goddess Ma'at dealt with the concept of justice, both in the material world and when the souls of the dead were weighed in the balance. The gods were understood to be living archetypes, not historical characters. Isians did not waste their time searching for cloths that may have wrapped the body of Osiris, nor did they consider it important to find splinters of the box in which he was confined. Far from being an unsophisticated and ignorant religion, theirs appears to have had a profound grasp of the human psyche. "Isis was worshipped as both Virgin and Mother -- but not as a Virgin Mother. Isians would have considered the notion of the Virgin birth frankly ridiculous: the gods may be capable of wonders, but they do not demand that their worshippers suspend their disbelief quite so much. The worship of most major goddesses emphasized their essential femininity by dividing it up into three main aspects , each representing the lifecycle of real women. First, there is the Virgin, then the Mother, then the Crone; all three are also linked to the new moon, the full moon and the dark side of the moon.

Juan Antonio Samaranch - referred to as "the Head Honcho" of the IOC - was for some reason VERY subdued and of few words when in Sydney recently to inspect the Olympic Games venue sites. (Well...he has been in the International spotlight of recent months regarding the 'outed' corruption concerning numerous IOC officials') For the one-time Spanish Ambassador to Moscow and an early graduate of the IESE - Spain's equivalent of The Harvard University business school in the U..S.. - when elevated to the head of the International Olympic Movement (IOC) in the 1980s, transformed the Olympics into a VAST money-spinning enterprise and, spectacles beyond spectacles for eyes to behold.

OPUS DEI `business administration schools' are now set-up all over the world. Not everyone is accepted into this R.C. secret society. Like a tennis club, new members might ask to join, BUT...they have to be COMPATIBLE with the "clubs" aims.

The Papal News Service has stated, "Christianity and the worlds culture owe much to the Church of Egypt" signals an unhealthy interest in the very Masonic conspiracy which the Vatican of previous centuries pledged to eradicate. Is Pope John Paul II's rapprochement with Freemasonry high treason in the Vatican? Or is it the case that, as Pharaoh entreated Moses, Roman Catholicism never removed very far from Egypt in the first place? This question will be addressed in an upcoming series on The Johannite Church. And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away. . . Exodus 8:28 "For the first time, a Roman Catholic pope is going to the land of the pharaohs. John Paul II visited Egypt Feb. 2426 as part of a series of trips to biblical sites in 2000, Reuters said. He will meet with government and religious leaders, including President Hosni Mubarak, Coptic Orthodox Pope Shenouda, and the country's top Islamic leader. The pope will celebrate Mass in the Catholic Coptic Cathedral in Cairo, then visit the monastery of St. Catherine in the Sinai desert, thought to be near the site where Moses received the Ten Commandments." (Religion Today, January 21, 2000) According to an editorial in the Fides News Service of Rome, founded by the Pontifical Society for the Propagation of the Faith, The Pope will visit Sinai and encourage Egypt's hope: "Egypt is about to live an historical event: for the first time the Catholic Pope of Rome will visit this Muslim country whose Christians are mainly Orthodox Copts. The visit is part of the pilgrimages to the Holy Land, or Holy Lands as Arabs say, which the Pope has programmed to celebrate the Jubilee of the Year 2000. These journeys, he explains in his letter - A Pilgrimage to the places linked with the history of salvation - "are purely religious, not political" (n. 10). By chance, thanks to Providence, because of human violence around Iraq, the first pilgrimage will be to Egypt, a land which for millennia has linked its existence with that of God. The very name Ad Ka Ptah, means the "house of the heart of God". Ptah, considered the god-creator of the world, was venerated at Memphis, in the Early Kingdom. From him all the other gods of Egypt were born, ending with Osiris, god of the underworld and judge of the dead. The Greeks called this "land of the gods" Aegyptos from which comes the word Copt, initially used to indicate the inhabitants of Egypt, but now used only by Egyptian Christians.

Although Dr. Hawass protests that Egypt will give no quarter to the Masonic "pyramidiots", he has extended a warm welcome to New Age groupies who conduct mysterious rituals in the King's and Queen's Chambers at the Great Pyramid. FEATURE - Pyramids attract New Age millennium pilgrims CAIRO, Nov. 29 (Reuters) - Late at night, long after the last foot-sore tourists have headed back to their hotels, pilgrims of a different kind gather silently at the Great Pyramid of Giza. Forty-four souls, assembled from as far afield as the United States, Britain, Norway, New Zealand and Israel, patiently await security clearance before ascend- 33 ing to the 4,500-year-old structure, whose meaning has confounded minds for centuries. They gather their crystals, shawls and thoughts of time, climb the steps and file inside the Pyramid one by one. The crackle of Egyptian police walkietalkies occasionally punctures the serenity, but these New Age pilgrims are unperturbed. For them, the night vigil is a homecoming. "We are a group of people from around the world who have come to spend some time with Ma in Israel and Egypt," says George Riemer, a stockbroker from Bend, Oregon. "The one thing we have in common is that we are all seekers of truth." Chalanda Ma is the group's Indian-born, California-based guru. A small, intense woman draped in a white sari, she explains the significance of the Great Pyramid. "The Pyramids carry the consciousness, the constant of light. It is a pure vehicle of light and harvests those seeking for the light and who come here with the knowledge. Space will activate their energy," she says. Her group has no name. "I have no beliefs, I do not function with beliefs. In the word belief, there is the word lie, and for me this is not the truth," she says.

Peddlers of the New Age fantasy expect the monuments will soon reveal remarkable secrets which will at last lead to the restoration of the lost kingdom of Isis and Osiris, and their son, Horus the King. The latest New Age propaganda claims that Jesus was supposed to communicate to the Jews the good news that the origin of their religion was Egypt -- however, the Apostles botched the Gospel! "Jesus is presented as having been an initiate of the mysteries of Osiris, the major Egyptian god of his day. . . [who] had passed this esoteric knowledge on to his disciple, John 'the Beloved'. It also claims that Paul and the other Apostles may have founded the Christian Church, but they did so without any knowledge of Jesus true teaching. They were not part of his inner circle. According to Fabre-Palaprat, it was the secret teachings, as given to John the Beloved, which had been preserved and eventually influenced the Knights Templar." [The Templar Revelation, p. 145] The following statement informs readers that the Hebrew Roots are in Egypt! [Could this be a future "new revelation" in the Hebrew Roots Movement which already bases its teachings on the Babylonian Talmud?] This disturbing claim appears in the pictorial section of The Templar Revelation with no documentation regarding the pictures shown: "Archaeological discoveries have shown that Judaism itself had its roots in the religion of Egypt. For example, the 'cherubim' found in a ninth-century B.C. Jewish palace (opposite, below) are strikingly similar to winged Egyptian goddesses (opposite, above) (British Museum). Was Jesus attempting to take Judaism back to its true roots? "Dope, Inc., by Anton Chaitkin describes the infiltration of Europe with the Isis cult through the mediumship of various high adepts, such as Aleister Crowley, Mme. Blavatsky and other notables: "Edward Bulwer-Lytton, the leading member of the Rosicrucian Society (the Colonial Minister under Lord Palmerston during the Second Opium War) was also the intellectual mentor of Adolph Hitler, George Bernard Shaw (Fabian), Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Richard Wagner, Benjamin Disraeli, and Karl Haushofer (founder of the Vril Society which helped propel Hitler to power). In 1886 William Butler Yeats, and several other proteges of Bulwer-Lytton formed the Isis-Urania Temple of Hermetic Students of the Golden Dawn. 'This Isis Cult was organized around the 1877 manuscript Isis Unveiled by Madame Blavatsky, in which the Russian occultist called for the British aristocracy to organize itself into an Isis priesthood.'" [p. 539] The Pontifical Society for the Propagation of the Faith [Fides News Service] stated, "The Pope will visit Sinai and encourage Egypts hope." Perchance might Pope Paul II's visit to the Egyptian Pyramids have any connection with the Masonic quest for Horus-King? The Illuminati ceremony in Egypt during the Solar Eclipse of August 11, 1999 is purported to have invoked the Dark Mother, known as Isis in Egypt and various goddesses called the Black Madonna or Black Virgin.

When the era of persecution ended, it was here that monastic life began to flourish with Anthony (circa 251-356) and Pachomius (287-347) transmitting its ideals to Benedict and the entire civilization of Europe. Here the school of Alexandria with Clement and Origen fashioned a magnificent synthesis, combining the best of ancient Greek thought with Christianity, influencing western metaphysics still today. Here, thanks to Cyril, there was the first definition of the dogma of Theotokos, Mother of God, without which the Church could not be called "holy" and infallible". Even the name Pope, was attributed first to the Patriarch of Alexandria and then passed to the Bishop of Rome. Still today Copt-Orthodox and Greek-Orthodox patriarchs are still addressed as holiness , like the Pope of Rome." The Coptic Church "Coptic Christianity" is an heretical Gnostic tradition which originated in Syria and proliferated in the early centuries A.D. through Clement's Alexandrian School in Egypt. 1. Later history associates the Coptic Church with Druidism, euphemistically called "Celtic Christianity." This pagan sect, which migrated to the British Isles, claims that the literal bloodline of Jesus Christ exists today in a royal lineage called the Merovingian Dynasty. Today, the Coptic/Celtic Church is a formidable movement which is spreading its Gnostic heresy, based on counterfeit Scriptures, via the popular New Age Grail legends. In his book, The Occult Conspiracy, Michael Howard connects Coptic Christianity with Druidism, Gnosticism, Neo-Platonism, 21 the Secret Gospel of Mark and the Priory of Sion: "In addition to Druidism, the Celtic Church had been influenced by Coptic Christianity. This unorthodox version of the new faith was founded by Clement of Alexandria who had blended the teachings of Jesus with Gnosticism, Judaism and Neo-Platonism. Clement founded his Coptic Church on the Secret Gospel of Mark, written by the evangelist in Alexandria following the death of Jesus. This gospel preserved the inner teachings given by Jesus to his closest disciple who had been initiated into the Christian mysteries. It is interesting that Ormus, the legendary first-century founder of the secret society which became the Priory of Sion, lived in Alexandria and was converted to Christianity by Mark." 2. The Columbia Encyclopedia identifies the doctrine of the Coptic Church as Monophysitism, which was declared a heresy in the 5th century by the Council of Chalcedon. Monophysites maintained that the human and divine in Jesus Christ constituted but one composite nature. The Council of Chalcedon labored to determine the correct terminology which would define the doctrine of the Incarnate Christ as existing in two natures, united in one person. Note that the Coptic Church is in communion with the Jacobite Church, which led the Monophysite opposition to the affirmation of the two natures of Christ by the Council of Chalcedon. The Jacobite Church confesses the "one divine-human nature" of Christ and has historically been separated from the Roman Catholic Church: Email: [email protected] Web Site: http://www.despatch.cth.com.au/ Publish: Beauty for Ashes 4 issues @ $15p.a.

The Church is in communion with the Jacobite Church (also Monophysite) . . .the chief bishop, the Patriarch of Alexandria is in direct succession to the 5th century Patriarchs who embraced Monophysitism. Among the Copts a small minority are in communion with the Pope; these 'Catholic Copts' have their own organizations and churches but share the rites and practices of the Coptic Church. This community began to develop in the 18th cent. Protestant missions have had some success among the Copts. Besides Copts there are orthodox communities, mainly Greek and Syrian; the Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria traces his succession to the Catholics of the 5th century. There are also many Catholic Syrians, mainly Melkites and Maronites." 3,4. During his visit to Egypt, Pope John Paul II will say Mass at the Catholic Coptic Cathedral. This would appear to be the "Catholic Copts" mentioned above which share the rites and practices of the Coptic Church. Research of the liturgy of the Coptic Mass disclosed that this ritual is the ancient worship of Horus, the Sungod, as the Egyptian "Christ". Dr. Ragheb Moftah, whom the Coptic patriarch called "the father of hymnology," and his British colleague, Ernest Newlandsmith, have spent their lives collecting the hymns to be chanted in Coptic Masses and syncretizing Ancient Egyptian and Western hymnology. Preserving Pharos Psalms FOR CHRIST "Moftah, whom the Coptic patriarch has called "the father of hymnology," has been doggedly gathering, recording and transcribing this ephemeral mass of material since meeting a young English ethnomusicologist named Ernest Newlandsmith 71 years ago. His extraordinary longevity is dwarfed only by the age of his subject. According to Moftah, Coptic Church chant is the oldest liturgical music in the world. Its Christian origins are tied to those of the Coptic Church itself, which appeared with St. Mark in Alexandria in roughly 45 A.D. But at least some of the new church hymns were based on rnelodies used in odes to the pharaonic era deities of Isis and Osiris in their temples. "A number of pharaonic elements have remained in Coptic music. . .The famous hymn "Kyrie Eleison" may have descended from prayers to Aton, the sun god. . . "While Coptic chant predates Islam, the work of Coptic cantors and the recitation of the Holy Quran probably influenced each other, and both share common elements with the ancient, and continuing, jewish institution of master singers in the synagogue. . .

Dr. Dolphin was captivated by Hoagland's idea of a 'Martian Sphinx' - the Face - and , in 1983, was instrumental in helping Hoagland set up the Independent Mars Investigation Project under the aegis of SRI..." Authors of The Message of the Sphinx provide a chronology of events involving Lambert Dolphin and his Stanford Research Institute team whose expertise in using remote sensing technology to search for hidden chambers around and under the Sphinx made possible Dr. Hawass' later discovery of the Tomb of Osiris: It seems that in 1972 the first photographs from Mariner 9 had revealed an area of Mars known as the Elysium Quadrangle where there were four massive tetrahedral pyramids in close proximity and aligned in a definite pattern. The next phase of exploration occurred in 1975 when NASA launched the twin probes Viking 1 and Viking 2. Viking 1 photos produced in 1976 revealed in another area of Mars, Cydonia, the image of a human face and pyramid like structures.

It is not known what work Newlandsmith had in mind exactly, but presumably it was about Moftah's contributions to explaining the likely link between Ancient Egyptian and Western music." "In 1931, they stopped briefly to complete Newlandsmith's return to England together. There they lectured on the glories of Coptic music - its first recognition in the West since it reached Ireland with Egyptian missionaries around the fifth century - at Oxford and Cambridge universities, among other places. Once, at Oxford, they had a special visitor in the audience - a young physicist named Albert Einstein. The lectures drew many notices in the press, which seized on the theme of Western music's hitherto neglected Egyptian roots." The reference to recitation of the Koran (Holy Quran) in Coptic liturgy may offer some clue as to why, in May of 1999, Pope John Paul II bowed and kissed the Muslim holy book presented to him by a Muslim delegation led by the Patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans. "In May 1999, during an audience granted to three Muslims at the Vatican, Pope John Paul II bowed to the Muslim holy book, the Koran, and kissed it (Christian News, Oct. 18, 1999, p. 16). The three Muslims were the Shiite Imam of Khadum mosque, the Sunni president of the Iraqi Islamic Bank, and a representative of the Iraqi ministry of religion. 23 The photo of the gesture has been shown repeatedly on Iraqi television. . . A mere six months later, Indonesian Muslims demonstrated their reply to the Pope's gesture by slaughtering Roman Catholics in East Timor who had voted their independence from Indonesia."

Say not "Trinity" : desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah. Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs." (Koran, Surah 4:171) Pre-existence of Jesus: "The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: 'Be'. And he was." (Koran, Surah 3:59) Sonship of Christ: "Regarding Sonship of Jesus: That is Jesus, son of Mary, in word of truth, concerning which they are doubting.

Why did the Pope kiss the Koran?: a book in Italian on basics of Islam Rome (Fides) "At the end of the audience the Pope bowed to the Muslim holy book the Koran presented to him by the delegation and he kissed it as a sign of respect." This was said by Raphael Bidawid, Patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans who told Fides about his audience with Pope John Paul II on May 14th when he was received with a delegation composed of the Shiite imam of Khadum mosque and the Sunni President of the council of administration of the Iraqi Islamic Bank and also a representative of the Iraqi ministry of religion. That gesture was a sign of the Holy Father s respect for the billion and 34 million followers of Islam, as well as his eagerness to make a pilgrimage in the footsteps of Abraham, the common father of Christians, Jews and Muslims. Recently a book on Islam was published in Italian by EMI with the title "I fondamenti dell Islam. Un introduzione a partire dalla fonte: il Corano". The book, originally in German, is written by Adel Theodore Khoury from Lebanon, who, until 1996, was professor at Muenster University in Germany. The book presents the figure of Mohammad, his life and mission and shows that the Prophet understood the relation between the religions of the Book, the Jewish religion, Christianity and Islam: it could be useful for promoting Christian/ Muslims relations.

The abrupt change of plans was reportedly due the wide publicity about New Age theories of a lost civilization called Atlantis which is said to have built the Egyptian monuments. Before the decision to cancel the capping of the pyramid, Reuters announced Hawass' displeasure with this Atlantean nonsense in an article, "Millennium music will make pyramids pulsate": "Hawass, director of the Giza plateau, wants to drive home a message that the pyramids were created by ancient Egyptians, not Freemasons, Jews, aliens or the lost civilization of Atlantis. 'By putting the capstone on top of the pyramid we are saying that we are the originators of this civilization', he says. 29 he believed this shaft to be a (or the) Tomb of Osiris, and "in some way connected at least symbolically with the Oseirion at Abydos." A prophecy by the late psychic, Edgar Cayce foretold that a Hall of Records at the Great Sphinx at Giza would be rediscovered and opened between 1996 and 1998 and that this discovery would be related to the second coming of Christ: "Headquartered in Virginia Beach in the United States . . . the A.R.E.

'The Masons are using a wrong imitation of the capstone of the Middle Kingdom, he declares." [Reuters, 12/9/99] Considering Dr. Hawass' aversion to the Atlantis cult, it seems rather unusual that in August of 1998, he would make a presentation to A.R.E. [the Association for Research and Enlightenment of the Edgar Cayce Foundation] Conference. At the conference Dr. Hawass reported that a recent excavation had led to a deep shaft found under the causeway midway between the Khafre pyramid and the Sphinx -- the place where Hawass discovered the Tomb of Osiris in March of 1999 or February, 2000, or both. At that time [1998], Dr. Hawass told the A.R.E. that Edgar Cayce, who died in 1945. Prominent amongst Cayce s pronouncements were many statements. . . to the effect that the Sphinx had been built in 10,500 BC by the survivors of Atlantis who had concealed beneath it a Hall of Records containing all the wisdom of their lost civilization and the true history of the human race.

"This section highlights some discrepancies between the discovery of this location as reported in the television programme and other historical reports. It also suggests why Herodotus was told that this location - if indeed it is the same one - was Khufu's burial chamber, and for comparative purposes gives examples of other locations also called the 'Tomb of Osiris'. "From points 1 and 2 above, Doctor Hawass discovered the subterranean chamber recently, however it is clear from the Excavations At Giza excerpt reproduced on page 1 and the London Daily Telegraph article of the 4th March 1935 reproduced on page 3 that the location was known about many years ago. "From points 5, 6 and 8 above, on clearing the second level chamber Doctor Hawass found six sidechambers cut into the rock and the shaft descending to the third level chamber. Two of the sidechambers contained red granite sarcophagi, Again, it is clear from the reports cited above that Doctor Selim Hassan was fully aware of the layout of the second chamber with its sidechambers and also of the shaft to the third level, although he believed the two monolithic sarcophagi to be of basalt rather than granite." Another Egyptology website, Ananda in the Hallway of Osiris, features pictures showing details of the proposed tomb of Osiris and the Giza site and claims that Dr. Hawass' story is consistent with the 1935 discovery: "Parts of this discoveries are not new at all. Two levels underground had been discovered in 1935, where the Daily Telegraph, of England, published on March the 10th the details of this Tomb. The Osiris section was underwater, however." Dr. Hawass and the Masonic Egyptologists have engaged in a longstanding controversy regarding the dating of the pyramids, according to Masonic authors, Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval, who were among Hawass' opposition until a recent reconciliation was announced. "In 1993-4 . . . Dr. Zahi Hawass appeared to be adamantly opposed to the notion that the Sphinx might be far older than ancient Egypt - and thus the work of a lost civilization. The reader will recall that the EAO official was particularly incensed by the NBC television film, The Mystery of the Sphinx, that was made about the work of John Anthony West. . . The NBC documentary linked the Sphinx to Atlantis and suggested that the chamber Thomas Dobecki's seismograph had detected beneath its paws might have some sort of time capsule of Atlantean wisdom and history. Hawass called these claims: 'American hallucinations. West is an amateur. There is absolutely no scientific base for any of this. We have older monuments in the same area. They definitely weren't built by men from Atlantis. It's nonsense and we won't allow our monuments to be exploited for personal enrichment. The Sphinx is the soul of Egypt.'"

The Tomb of Osiris 25 After dirt and most of the remaining water were cleared from the shaft, located between the Sphinx and the Pyramid of Chefren (Khafre), archaeologists found three underground levels, with the submerged Osiris sarcophagus at the lowest. By strange coincidence, one month before the Pope's scheduled visit to Egypt, the tomb of the Egyptian Sun-god, Osiris, was discovered in a shaft between the Great Sphinx and the Pyramid of Khafre. Egyptians Find Tomb of Ancient God Osiris Thursday February 17, 2000 GIZA, Egypt (Reuters) - Sinking water levels have revealed a granite sarcophagus of the ancient Egyptian god Osiris in a 30-meter (98 feet) deep tomb at the Giza pyramids, Egyptian archaeologist Zahi Hawass said Wednesday. Osiris was one of the most important gods of ancient Egypt who according to mythology was murdered by his wicked brother Seth. He was buried by Isis, his sister-wife, and brought back to life as judge of the dead and ruler of the underworld. Hawass said the sarcophagus, which he dated to 500 BC in the New Kingdom, was surrounded by the remains of four pillars built in the shape of a hieroglyphic 'Bir' or 'House of Osiris'. The excavation unearthed 3,000-year-old bones and pottery found in the underground water, he said. "I never excavated this shaft because it was always full of water. But when the water went down about a year ago, we started the adventure,'' he told Reuters. "Many people believed there were tunnels going to the Sphinx and another leading to the Great Pyramid but only when we sent a young boy into a tunnel in the west wall (of the tomb shaft) did we find this exciting discovery,'' said Hawass. Dr. Hawass is the Undersecretary of the State for the Giza Monuments and Director of the Pyramids, whose official website, The Plateau, advertises Egypts extensive excavation of the ancient monuments. Of interest, the surname "Hawass" derives from "Aiwass" [Horus], who was the spirit guide of Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), head of the English branch of the infamous Ordo Templi Orientis. The OTO is a secret society at one point headed by the leader of the German Secret Service. Crowley also worked for the British and American intelligence services during World Wars I and II; however, it is said that he boasted openly of his occult influence on Adolf Hitler.

Despatch Magazine ~ Vol. 12:1 March 2000 26 "Aleister Crowley is the occultist and Satanist that is maybe the most well known. His works "The Book of the Law", "Magick in Theory and Practice" and "The Book of Thoth" are broadly used in occult circuits. Crowley himself didn't take much credit for having written them, as he stated they were written by automatic handwriting, being channelled from a higher being called Aiwaz (or Aiwass). This being said he had lived in Caldea during the reign of Hammurabis (around 1750 BC), but later, in his book "Magick in Theory and Practice", Crowley identified Aiwaz as his own genius. He was actually very proud of this book, which he used as a Bible for his own religion Thelema. Crowley looked at man as a sleeping god who gradually started to understand what powers he possesses. He also taught that Satan was identical with the Sumerian devil/god Shaitan, who he stated had been worshipped in the Egyptian deserts long before the ages of the Pharaohs. . . Crowley's messenger taught that the old Age of Osiris soon would follow by the new Age of Horus. But first Earth must bathe in blood. There should be a World War(!)" Crowley, Hitler & World War II "In distinction, Crowley claimed that, on the 8th of April 1904 in Cairo at 12 noon exactly and for the following two days at the exact same time he actually heard a voice in his ear, dictating the words of the text (as if through some transmitter in his brain), and that he transcribed them faithfully. It was not inspired, then, so much as received. The voice itself claimed to be that of Aiwass, or Aiwaz, the minister of Hoor-paarkraat, or otherwise, Horus the god of force and fire, child of Isis and Osiris, and self-appointed conquering lord of the New Aeon, officially announced through his chosen scribe, the prince-priest the Beast. This much of Crowley s controversial life and claims is more or less confirmed. It is, as promised, to be found there in the writings themselves the proof as it were is in the pudding. Anyone who has read the work, and suffered the resulting conflictive feelings of admiration and disgust, will not doubt that there is something about the little red book that puts it in a class all its own. It might be argued that it is simply the work of a poetic genius, were it not for the fact that Crowley was to prove again and again in subsequent works that, for all his magikal prowess and philosophical brilliance, he was anything but a poetic genius. It seems rather as though the book partakes not of the qualities of Crowley, but that, conversely, Crowley himself grew over time to partake of the qualities of the book. And this he did, by his own admission, with boundless reluctance and distaste."

To his amazement, Dr. Hawass found instead the tomb of the Egyptian god, Osiris. However, we have been unofficially informed that this televised special was a hoax, according the letter below dated Aug. 28, 1999: Dear Sir I have been reading your page on the NWO mystery religion page. I have been in correspondence with Dr. Zahi Hawass while researching my book. I too watched the TV special about the "discovery" of the hidden tomb under the Sphinx. Many other knowledgeable historians and Egyptologists have had a little chuckle over that one. It is generally accepted that this program was simply eye candy for the mindless masses. With a little luck and good management My myself and my writing partner will have our book out in the near future. It will reveal the truth about a good many things that you have mentioned. We are both Master Masons and avid historians. Don't expect for us to reveal any Masonic secrets, but many of the common conspiracies regarding the true nature of the global power structure, the real purpose of the pyramids and the truth about many of the stories in the bible. It is our intention to offer this up to open minds that are welded shut by the sort of nonsense that people like yourself spew out. I mean no disrespect, but I know the truth, from the inside out and you are off by a long shot. 27 Here is a little tid bit for you to chew on. The "Kings chamber" in the Great Pyramid was never intended to house a dead king. It vault in it's center is a perfect match for the Arc of Moses. The Arc described in the book of Exodus is an exact copy of the Box of Ra ( Egyptian God) not only it's dimensions but the material it was constructed of. The cap stone of the Great Pyramid was made of solid gold, (According to the hieroglyphics) which was connected to the king's chamber by metal rods. Now the kicker to the whole thing. The Arc: it's construction was duplicated by a British scientist based on all the available information. It was found to be a basic but effective capacitor (electronic energy storage device) By setting it on acidic ground or in a salt water solution it generated and discharged a massive electrical charge. That would explain the references in the bible to the bolts of fire and light that struck down the enemies of God's "chosen" people. Now . . .word has it that the gold cap stone will be replaced in commemoration of the millennium. Makes you wonder what else will be replaced. I await your reply. Yours Truly Alex Furthermore, Dr. Hawass' excavation of the Giza pyramids in March of 1999 has been investigated by Egyptologists who claim that the chambers "discovered" by Hawass were known in 1935 and believed at that time to be the 'Tomb of Osiris'.
