In eternity past, Lucifer, the highest archangel, in charge of praise and worship in heaven rebelled against God, his master and creator(Is.14:12-20). He succeeded in luring one-third of the angels of God to participate in his revolt against God(Rev.12:3-4). Thusly, he became Satan, the adversary of God. He and his co-conspirators were tried and sentenced to eternity in Hell and the Lake Of Fire(Matt.24:41). He appealed. This was before the creation of man. The one-week creation account in Genesis is actually a recreation. The original creation in Gen.1:1 was perfect. “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”(Genesis 1:1 KJV). How did the Earth become formless and void? It was because of satanic rebellion. This is the gap theory.
God has to vindicate His justice by a retrial of the conspirators. Theologians call it theodicy, the vindication of God’s justice. Meanwhile Satan together with those angels who sided with him in the satanic revolt was cast out of the Heaven of Heavens into the Dark Void pending the outcome of a retrial. To vindicate His justice, God created man in His image and likeness. Man is the highest of all created beings. God put man in the Garden of Eden and suffered Satan to tempt him. He fell. Man, the epitome of God’s creation, made in His image and likeness will be condemned to Hell as Satan and his fallen evil. No angel is made in the image and likeness of God. God is a spirit being. Angels are also spirit beings, but they are not made in the image and likeness of God. They are not in the same class with God. Man is made in the image and likeness of God. Therefore man is in the same class with God. If man made in the image and likeness of God is condemned to Hell when he rebelled against God, then Satan has lost the appeal; he can no longer question the justice of God. So, human history is an appeal trial of Satan, and the Universe is a Divine Court in session.
One-third of the angels in heaven sided with Satan in the revolt(Rev.12:4a). He and his followers were cast out of the third heaven into the Dark Void and the starry heavens. This is the origin of evil angels called demons or evil spirits, the gods of the nations whom men worship. These evil spirits are locked in unrighteousness; for they can never repent. They have made their choice; it was an individual choice. The obedient angels are now locked in righteousness. They can no longer rebel against God. They shall for ever be faithful to Him. They have made their choice too; it was an individual choice also. After resurrection, the saints shall be locked in righteousness eternally. They shall be like the holy angels, incapable of sin(Matt.22:30; Mk.12:25; Luk.20:34,35). In the same way every man must be given opportunity to make one’s own choice. The sin of Adam is an imposition on the collective will of humanity. Every man must make his own choice individually. Every man must be responsible and accountable to God.
Man was also created to take the place of Satan in heaven to praise and worship God. In addition, God instituted a divine programme of redemption for man. The first promise of redemption is Gen.3:15. “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.”(Genesis 3:15 KJV). Theologians regard this verse as protoevangelion. It foreshadows the preaching of the Gospel of redemption of man. But Satan was determined to take man to Hell with him. Hell was built for the Devil and his angels(Matt.25:41). Therefore he devised a counter strategy to corrupt the whole of humanity. If the whole of humanity can be destroyed or disqualified, God cannot reclaim rulership of the Earth, because He would have no man on Earth over whom He would rule. If Satan cannot win in a court of law, may be he can in the battlefield. He went to war with God. Thus, the origin of the cosmic conflict.
If the whole human race can be hybridized, then humanity will be consigned to Hell in time and eternity with Satan and his fallen evil angels, thusly defeating God’s plan to redeem man. How would Satan accomplish his plan? Satan was not devested of his anointing when he was cast out of Heaven Of Heavens. He makes perverse use of his powers and abilities. He dispatched a segment of his fallen evil angels to cohabit with human females. Satan and his fallen angels have abilities to take up human form and body and be visible to the naked eye. Satan succeeded in hybridizing almost the whole human race. Only Noah and his family were spared. The statement “Noah was righteous in his generation,” is better translated “Noah was pure in his descendants.”(Gen.6:8; 7:1). Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord(Gen.6:8). God established His covenant with Noah(Gen.6:18, 9:9). It is purely the mercy of God that Noah and his family were not corrupted. Noah walked with God.
To truncate the satanic onslaught, and preserve a pure human race, God wiped out the predeluvian human race including the fallen angels who did not keep their first estate and their humanoid offspring except Noah and his family(Gen.7). The human souls were imprisoned in Hell and the spirits of those fallen evil angels who participated in the satanic hybridization programme were incarcerated in the shaft of the abyss. “And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.”(Jude 1:6 KJV). They will be employed by God for the punishment of those who do not have the seal of God in their forehead during the fifth trumpet judgment in the Day of the Lord’s wrath(Rev.9:1-12).
The OT underworld of the dead consisted of Hell where the unrighteous human dead were incarcerated, the bottomless pit which is the containment chamber for the fallen evil angels who did not keep the first estate as angels but cohabited with human females, and the OT paradise which was referred to as Abraham’s blossom. “There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.”(Luke 16:19-31 KJV). Before the arrival of Jesus the Messiah no man had seen God the Father. “No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.”(John 1:18 KJV). Before the incarnation of Jesus, no man had ever entered Heaven. “And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.”(John 3:13 KJV).
Until the blood of Jesus, the go’el(kinsman redeemer) was available to make atonement and reconciliation for the sin of humanity at the Mercy Seat in the Holy Of Holies of the Temple of God in the Heaven of Heavens, no man could be admitted into Heaven, not even Father Abraham or Moses. “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.”(John 8:56 KJV). When Jesus rose from the dead, he took the OT saints with Him. “Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.”(Matthew 27:50-54 KJV). The OT paradise under the Earth is now empty or nonexistent. When NT saints(believers) sleep in the Lord, they go straight to Heaven. The NT paradise is now in Heaven.
It is believed some of the fallen evil angels, the nephilim survived the deluge. Nimrod is believed to be a descendant of the giants. He is believed to be the first king of Assyria, Sargon I.
It was the fear of some of these giants that drove the ten spies to give an evil report of unbelief. They became guilty of unbelief and unpersuadablenesss. They saw the sons of Anak: Ahiman, Shehai, and Talmai. The Anakim were nephilim. They claimed they were like grasshoppers in their own eyes; and so also in the eyes of the Anakim. “And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.) And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”(Numbers 13:22, 33 KJV).
There were also other peoples groups accounted giants like the Emim(Deut.2:10,11), the Zamzumim(Deut.2:20,21), the Philistines, Goliath and his brother Lahmi(1 Sam.17:23; 1 Chron.20:5), Ishbibenov, Saph, and a polydactyl(2 Sam.21:16-22), and the Amorites. “For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbah of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.”(Deuteronomy 3:11 KJV). These fallen evil angels and their descendants were not always giants in physical appearance but had three characteristics: superhuman intelligence, extra-ordinary physical strength, and wikedness. But the God of Israel ensured they were wiped out amongst men. Jewish rabbis believe that animals were also involved in the satanic hybridization programme. If not, why did God destroy some animals?
“And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.”(Genesis 7:21-24 KJV).
The sentence against Satan and his fallen evil angels is executed in four stages. First, he and his fallen evil angels were cast out of the Heaven of heavens, the abode of God to the Dark Void and Starry heavens where they abide till this day. Satan and his co-conspirators have dwelt in the Dark Void and the Starry heavens for over six thousand years.
Second, precisely in the middle of the 70th week, they shall be cast down to the Earth by archangel Michael, the angel of God in charge of war, the protector of the people of God, the children of Israel, and believers in Jesus the Messiah, and the angels of God under his command.
“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.”(Revelation 12:7-17 KJV).
When he is cast down to the Earth with his fallen evil angels, he will be filled with wrath and shall possess the antiChrist, the sea-beast who declares himself God, and demands worship of all mortals(Rev.13:2; 2 Thess.2:3). His most powerful subordinates, the wicked spirits in the Heavenlies will possess whosoever they can. The rest of them will seek refuge in the rebuilt city of Babylon, the commercial and religious capital of the Eighth And Final Beast Empire of Satan(Rev.18:2).There will be a preponderance of evil as nakedness and witchcraft escalate. There will certainly be Christians here on Earth at that time as evidenced by the fifth seal martyrs(Rev.6:9-11), those who shall be beheaded for the word of God and the testimony which they shall uphold(Rev.20:4), and those who will overcome him by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony. “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”(Revelation 12:11 KJV). The controversy centres around whether these are “Tribulation Saints,” the “Left Behind,” after the Rapture has taken place as pretribulationists contend, or that the Rapture has not yet occurred, and all living saints shall go through the Great Tribulations as posttribulationists and prewrathers contend.
Third, when Christ retakes physical possession of the Earth at Armageddon(Rev.19:11-21), Satan shall be cast in the bottomless pit(Rev.20:1-4), whilst the antiChrist and the false prophet shall be cast into the Lake of Fire and brimstone(Rev.19:20). His fallen evil angels shall be also incarcerated in the shaft of the abyss and Hell.
Fourth, at the expiry of the Millennium, Satan shall be paroled for a season. He shall lead another revolt against God and the resurrected saints, using the same Germanic peoples(Magogites) who are his human minions and co-conspirators. They shall surround the New And Heavenly Jerusalem, the abode of Christ and the saints. God has had enough. Fire shall descend from God out of Heaven, and they will be enmolated in the heavenly conflagration. “And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”(Revelation 20:7-10 KJV). After the final revolt, Satan shall be cast into the Lake Of Fire and Brimstone where the sea-Beast and the false prophet had been for a thousand years previously.
The Table Of Nations(Gen.10)
The postdeluvian world was repopulated by Noah and his sons. Every man on Earth today is descendant of Noah and his sons. The three sons of Noah were Shem, Ham, and Japhet. Japhet was the eldest of the three sons. His descendants were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tuval, Meshech, and Tiras. Gomer begat Ashkenaz, Riphath, Togarmah. And the sons of Javan were Elisha, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. These are the Indo-European peoples that inhabit Europe, and parts of Asia. Ham begat Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. And Cush begat Nimrod. Cush in Hebrew means black. Therefore Nimrod was a black man. The descendants of Ham populated Africa, parts of Asia and the Southern Hemisphere. The descendants of Shem are Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. They populated parts of Asia, North and South Americas. Japheth the elder was the first born. He has the right of primogeniture which includes leadership, double inheritance, and family priesthood. He taketh away the first that He may establish the second. The priesthood went to his younger brother Shem. However Japhet retained double inheritance and leadership. Ham was cursed because he viewed his father’s nakedness when he was in a drunken stupor. He became a servant to his brethren.
“And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.”(Genesis 9:25-27 KJV).
The tent of Shem is a spiritual tent. Salvation is of the Jews who are descendants of Shem(Jon.4:22). The seven Beast Empires that negatively impacted Israel involved all the three sons of Noah.
The Tower Of Babel
After the deluge, God commanded Noah and his sons to disperse all over the Globe(Gen.9:1, 7). But Nimrod, a grandson of Noah through Cush, in defiance to God built a Tower and city to reach up to Heavens. He was a mighty one in the Earth. Nimrod was a mighty hunter before the Lord(Gen.10:8). His prowes in hunting was not just about animals but men. Nimrod was a hunter of the souls of men. The beginning of His kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar(Gen.10:10). The Tower of Babel was built to reach up to the Heavens. It was for astrology and stargazing and the consultation of demons. There was a market around it. It acted also as a civic center. The leadership held sessions in it. It was also an educational institution. The caste of priests to Marduk, the god of gold and the patron deity of Babylon had their cultic institute in the Tower of Babel. It was a beehive of activities. The remnant of the Tower Of Babel, the Ziggurats are still in Iraq till today. Although today Babylon is not the seat of false religion of mother-child founded by Nimrod, it shall be restored to its pristine state in the latter days.
“Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth. And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah. And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heaven. Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah? And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar: and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base.”(Zechariah 5:5-11 KJV).
A woman in an ephah, a holy measure is an abomination. The woman is Seminaris, the wife of Nimrod. The land of Shinar which is her base is Babylon where the false religion of mother-child worship began. God confounded their languages which led to a forced migration. As they migrated, they bore with them the vestiges of the religion of mother-child worship founded by Nimrod and his wife Semiramis.
(a) Education
Babel: A Global Ideal
But what is Babylon? Babylon is a global ideal, a false humanistic philosophical ideology epitomized in the one world religion and one world government of the antiMessiah, that exalts man above God. Satan said to the woman Eve, “Had God said? In the day that you shall eat of it, ye shall be as God.” Thus casting aspersions on the person of God. It questioned the existence of God. Indeed it does not recognize God. It began in the Garden of Eden when the Serpent beguiled Eve and she ate the forbidden fruit. After the deluge, it was given fillip by Nimrod who established false human government, and religion of mother-child worship and humanistic education and consumerism and commercialism. It will be epitomized in the last days by the false one world religion of the Dragon-Beast headquartered in Babylon. Babylon is the symbol of man’s rebellion and insubordination to God. It symbolizes everything that had its origin in humanistic evolution. Yes! There is a physical city called Babylon. It shall be destroyed. There is false humanistic region headquartered in Babylon. It shall be destroyed(Rev.17, 18). The whole Earth itself shall be salted with fire. “Seeing that all these things shall be destroyed, what manner persons ought you to be”(2 Pet.3:11)?
The global ideal originated from Satan through his minion Nimrod. Since Satan’s attempt to hybridize the whole of humanity failed, he has to devise some other means by which he could destroy or disqualify the whole of humanity. It is the philosophical concepts of atheism and evolution. It is called humanism. It is the concept and belief that man is God. It is not entirely new. It began in the Garden of Eden when Adam and his wife Eve ate the forbidden fruit.
“And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.”(Genesis 3:4-5 KJV).
The Hebrew word “elohim” translated “gods” in Gen.3:5 in KJV should have been translated “God.” In Hebrew “elohim” is generic. It could refer to the Almighty God, the Yahweh of Judah(Gen.1:1), the abominations of the nations(Exod.12:12, 15:11, 18:11, 20:3, 23) the fallen evil angels whom the Gentiles worship, and important human personalities(Gen.22:28). The context determines the meaning. Satan did not mean that on eating the forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve were to become like the fallen evil angels, the gods whom the nations worship. He meant that they would be as God, the Supreme Being Who is the creator of the Heavens and the Earth. When the antiMessiah shall make his debut at the rebuilt Third Jewish Temple on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, he shall sit in the Holy Of Holies displaying himself as being God.
“Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”(2 Thessalonians 2:4 KJV). Humanism would become the guiding principle of every human acitivity – government, religion, education, entertainment and media, culture and tradition, raising family, commerce and industry and technology.
There are four Cardinal points or pillars to humanistic philosophy. These are atheism, evolution, moral relativity, and amorality.
Atheism
The word theism is derived from the Greek word theos which means God. When the letter a is added to a Greek word as a prefix, it negates it’s meaning. Atheos means no God. Atheism as a philosophy of life therefore means that there is no God, nor sovereign, nor creator, nor Being to whom man shall one day render account. But there is a sovereign God who created man in His own image and likeness, and is the possessor of the heavens and the earth(Gen.1-2, 14:19). The Bible dismisses as a fool anyone who claims and teaches that there is no God. The fool hath Said in his heart, there is no God(Ps.14:1; 53:1). The Bible did not try to prove that God is, but presented His existence as a self-evident fact both from nature and specific revelations(Ps. 19).
Evolution.
Evolution is a collolary, a natural consequence of atheism. For if there is no God, then man is not created. If man is not created, then he evolved from lower forms of life. Evolution cannot account for the complexity and orderliness in nature. It does not stretch credulity to believe that the complexity and orderliness of the human body, it’s morphology, anatomy, biochemistry and physiology, the diversity of the histology and cell biology necessitate an intelligent creator at work. If man evolved from lower animals, he ought to have evolved to some higher animal ever since. But albeit, he is still the same old sinner, liar, cheat and murderer he has ever been from the Garden Of Eden. Evolution is an unrealistic and nonscientific insanity. Whatever that is called science that is opposed to the word of God is false. Apostle Paul writing to his protégé Timotheus admonished him saying: ” O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vein babbling, and oppositions of science falsely so called: which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.”(1 Tim.5:20,21). The evolutionists are not scientists at all. Science is the observation, study and experimentation with nature. And nature itself is not opposed to God: for God is the author and maker of nature. The evolutionists are rebellious and graceless men who seek to absolve their conscience of any responsibility and accountability towards God. They are intellectually dishonest men and women who think they can through denial of accountability to God extricate themselves from the wrath and judgment of God. For this reason also they attack and ridicule those of us who believe that God is and that He is the creator of all things in existence, man being the zenith of His divine genius and creativity whom He made in His image and likeness; our belief being a rebuke and condemnation to their unbelief and rebelliousness.
Moral Relativity.
The third pillar of humanisn is a logical outgrowth of the first two pillars. If there is no God, man is not created. If man is not created, he evolved. If he evolve, he is still evolving. If he is still evolving, there are no absolutes for living. There is nothing concrete, solid or eternal on which to build one’s life. Righteousness is conformity to a standard. And God is the standard for morality. If there is no God, there is no standard for morality. Man is still evolving, all is in state of change and flux. All is quicksand; there is no foundation. Everything is relative. This is moral relativism. If it feels good, you go and do it. If you like do it. You cannot tell me what to do, an I cannot tell you what to do.
Amorality
The fourth cardinal pillar when followed to its logical conclusion is utter chaos. This fourth pillar is pragmatic and relates to value systems and lifestyles, conduct and manner of life. If atheism and evolution are true, then amorality reigns supreme. There is nothing right or wrong. It is a matter of expediency and inexpediency, efficiency and inefficiency, likes and dislikes etc. You cannot tell me what to do: I cannot tell you what to do. For you to tell me what to do, you have made yourself the standard. And for me to tell what to do I have made myself the standard. And there is no standard. It is a matter of likes and dislikes. I did it my way. You go ahead and do it your own way. I did my own thing. You go ahead and do your own thing. Followed to its logical conclusion, there should be no government, no legislature, no judiciary, no law enforcement agents, no border guards, no soldiers to defend the territorial integrity and the values of nations. What this would result into is a dog eat dog society, the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest. It is your thing; I cannot tell you what to do. If you do not leave alone, we are going to fight. When we fight, the winner takes all. There will be nothing like love, justice, mercy and humaneness.
Discourse
The worth, integrity, nobility and dignity of human life lie in the fact that God created man in His own image and likeness. He breathed into Him the breath of life, and man became a living being(Gen.1:27). If atheism is true, there is no God. And if there is no God man is not created. He evolved. And if he evolved, there is no basis for human dignity, worth, integrity or nobility. He is an animal in evolution. Out of such thinking emerges the proabortion mentality and euthanasia. If man is an animal, what is wrong with terminating unwanted pregnancies, and euthanizing the elderly who have outlived their usefulness. Millions of animals are killed for human consumption daily. Thousands of pets are put to sleep on a daily basis. So, what is wrong with eliminating unwanted humans; the mentally ill and the physically deformed. There will be nothing wrong with cannibalism, ritual killings, murder, oppression, racism, and political demagoguery.
Marvin J. Rosenthal has written, ” if there are no moral absolutes, no God-given eternal standard of right or wrong, then what is wrong with homosexuality, adultery, drugs, alcoholism, and wickedness and pervasions of every kind which have invaded and virtually dominate the present hour of history.” If there are no moral absolutes, incest and pedophilia and child pornography would be games anyone who so desires would play.
Ireland have legalized same sex marriage. The US Supreme Court has voted 5-4 in favour of Gay marriages, and thus became the 20th nation in the world to do so. No state in the US can delegitimatize Gay marriages or bar same sex couples from getting married. If homosexualism is legalized, what about pedophilia, incest, adultery, rape and bestiality, and sexual perversions of all kinds? These evils which destroy society carry the death penalty as does homosexualism under the law of Moses(Lev. 20:10-20; Rom.1:27).
Man is headed towards the globalization of humanistic thinking, which has captured, and now controls the minds of most men, especially in the western society. It is the philosophy of Satan, the Supreme personality of evil, the enemy of God, and the souls of men. In very many ways, through radio and television, the internet and the entertainment industry, the media, educational institutions, through music and cultural revolution, we are being bombarded by humanistic philosophy based on the supposition that there is no God, that man evolved, and that there are no moral absolutes.
But Apostle Paul admonished us that we must not be conformed to this world(Rom.12:2). The Greek word translated world here is aeion which is better translated age. It denotes the moving world. It is passing away. “Love not the world, neither the things that in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in Him. For all that is the world, the lust of the flesh, the last of the eyes, and the pride, is not of the Father, but of the world. And the World passeth away, and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.“(1 Jon.2:15-17). But unfortunately, and tragically for that matter, the humanistic philosophy of This Age(olam haze), is squeezing many of us, children of God, into its mold, and so tightly for that matter that we would be nigh unto spiritual death if it were possible. We must not be fashioned, molded, shaped, put into a box, wrapped up, and tied up with the ribbon of this age’s humanistic philosophy.
What can we do to get out of this choke hold, and suffocating grasp? We must be transformed by the renewing of our minds(Rom.12:2). In order not to allow the external godless philosophy of this unregenerate world system to come upon us and mold our thinking and mindset, we must be transformed by the word of God. The Greek word translated transformed in the KJV is metamorphou, from which we derive the English word metamorphosis. It is a biological term. In the Greek, it is a passive verb. The transfiguration of the ova to larva, pupa and the imago is inevitable while it is in the right environment. The ova has all the genetic ability to become the imago in the right environment. With enabling environment, the transformation is passive. In the case of spiritual transformation to maturity, the mind must first be renewed with the word of God. The renewing of the mind is active. This means that we have the responsibility to renew our minds by ingestion of the Word of God. If the mind is not renewed with the word of God, there can be no transformation to spiritual maturation. The word of God is the building block with which the Holy Spirit builds the image of Christ into our soul. We all with open face, beholding in a glass, the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord( 2 Cor.3:18). The word is like a looking glass. When we look into the word of liberty, we see two images: the image of the Christ, and our own image. There will always be differences. We must then desire to conform to the image of the Christ, which gives impetus to the Holy Spirit, the divine surgeon, to carry out the inward organ transplant and the plastic reconstruction as it were. For the Holy Spirit to take full control of our lives, our minds must be renewed with the word of God. We must be doers of the Word not hearers only deluding ourselves. If we be hearers and not doers, then we are like the man that beholds his face in a glass, and goeth away, and forgeteth what manner of person he was(Jam.1:22,23). Why are we unable to retain a permanent image of our faces in our minds? Why do we often view our faces in the mirror and yet have no permanent memory of it? Is it only for the purpose of hygiene that we view our faces in the mirror so often? For starters, our faces like every other part of bodies are in the process of degeneration. Is it only for these reasons, personal cleanliness and aging that we view our faces so often in the mirror? Why do we always forget our facial looks?
Although this age’s humanistic philosophy will find its fulfilment in the antiMessiah who will set up an image of himself in the rebuilt Jewish Temple on Mount Mariah(Dan.9:27), and demand worship of all men, God will not let man prevail(Ps.9:19). Satan will not triumph. The antiChrist will be defeated(Rev.19:11-21). Man will not be deified. All the combined forces of darkness arrayed against the divine purpose, though enormous, formidable and powerful will not succeed. The omnipotent Father has spoken: ” Yet Have I set my king upon my Holy Hill of Zion”(Ps.2:6). ”And again, when He bringeth the first begotten into the World, He saith, let all the angels if God worship Him”(Heb.1:6). The enemies of our God and His Christ shall be destroyed(2 Thess.2:8; Heb.2:14; Rev.20:10-15). And then, every knee shall bow, and every shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father(Phil.2:10,11).
Amorality will result in anomie and anarchy. In order to avoid total chaos, some form of government must be instituted. What form of government did Nimrod introduce? It was a false human government. In Babel Nimrod instituted a false human government that blasphemed God and those who dwell in Heaven. He demanded total allegiance from its subjects and promised them false peace and security(pax et securitas) in a utopian golden age. The Utopia promised by Nimrod is flimsy, nebulous, and unattainnable . Even in this age man is pursuing this goal in the concept of singularity when man will become God, “Homo Deus,” free from sickness, disease and death, and live for ever in this mortal but ageless body, but yet a sinner as ever. This is in opposition to God’s plan to redeem man from sin and to glorify him in a new and glorified eternal immortal resurrection body, free from the ravages of sin, sickness and disease. Human nature can be altere through hybridization, immunization, and technology.
(b) Babel: The Origin Of False Humanistic Region.
The origin of this false religion of mother-child worship is Babylon. It was founded by Nimrod and his wife Semiramis. After the confusion of languages at Babel, all the descendants of Noah spread it all over the world as they migrated bearing the vestiges of this false religion of mother-child worship. It is found among all peoples groups. It is Roman Catholicism. It is Islam. It is New Age Religion, Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Shintoism and every other false religion. The archenemy of all these religions is Christianity and Judaism. The Romish Church, Islam, and Hindus have murdered Christians. In the last hour of history it shall be reconvened in its city of origin, Babylon, in the land of Shinar, as some sort of ecumenism(Zech.5:1-11). This false religion headquartered in Babylon, and its branches all of the world, in all forms and ramifications shall be finally destroyed at the outpouring of the final seventh bowl judgment(Rev.16:16-18:1-24). Mother-child worship is as old as humanity. It goes by different names amongst various ethnic groups. Among the Romans, it was Jupiter and Venus. Among the Greeks it name Aphrodite and Zeus.
Introduction And Institutionalization Of Mass Idolatry
With the survival of Noah and his family, the human race has been preserved pure. But satan being the enterprising spirit that he is went to work. After the deluge, God commanded men to disperse all over the Earth. But Nimrod, in defiance to God, built cities like Babylon, Nimrud, and Uruk. Nimrod was a mighty hunter before the Lord(Gen.10:9). Nimrod was a great grandson of Noah through Ham and Cush. His prowess mentioned above has nothing to do with animals and hunting. Nimrod was a mighty hunter of the souls of men. Nimrod practised witchcraft. With him is associated the origin of false religion, false human government and commercialism. Babylon was not just a city, it symbolized a philosophical concept, a global ideal that was applicable to government, religion, education and commerce, indeed every aspect of human activities and existence. The evil concept that is Babylon shall be annihilated at the outpouring of the seventh bowl judgment.
The ziggurats of ancient Babel were not residential skyscrapers but minarets for the practice of astrology and star gazing. Mother-child worship began in Babylon. Semiramis was the wife of Nimrod and Osiris his son, believed to have been born posthumously, whom Semiramis believe to be her husband come back to life. In middle Eastern mythology, Osiris actually married the mother which was an abomination. Osiris, also called Tammuz, went hunting like his father and was killed by a wild boar. He came back to life after his mother mourned for 40 days. From this belief came the Roman Catholic practice of lent. It has nothing to do with the 40 day fast that Moses and Jesus observed. Till this day, mother-child worship involve women weeping for Tammuz(Ezek.8:14). When God confounded the language of postdiluvian earth-dwellers, and forced their dispersion to the four corners of the Globe, they carried with them the vestiges of their religion. There are no people on Earth who had not this religion in one form or the other. In Nnewi where I resided for 13 years during the days of the years of my seclusion, it is Edo and Ezemewi. At the Mbari in my town in Imo State, it is Afor and Oparukwu seated on her lap. Semiramis is called the queen of heaven(Jer.7:18, 44:17-18,25). She was so called, 700 years before Mary, whom the Roman Catholics refer to as queen of Heaven.
The ephah is a holy measure. A woman in a holy measure is an abomination. The woman in the ephah is Semiramis or Anat, the wife of Nimrod and mother of Tammuz or Osiris. The ephah was taken to its base in the land of Shinar where mother-child worship introduced by Nimrod began. It was Nimrod who founded Babel. It was from Babylon in the land of Shinar that it spread to all other parts of the world after the confusion of languages at Babel. Mother-child worship did not begin in Mecca in Arabia. So, Mecca in Arabia cannot be the land of Shinar.
That Islam is the symbol of mother-child worship is true, so also every other false religion. That Mecca is Babylon the Great, the Great Whore of Rev.17,18 is not true, though the spirit of Babylon, the spirit of mother-child worship controls Mecca as it does also Rome and did Pergamos, and the center of every other false religion other than true Christianity. So Rev.17 & 18 are not about Mecca. Neither is it about Jerusalem, for that would mean that the Medes and ten kings of the Eighth Beast Empire shall destroy the headquarters of the antiChrist and the capital city of the His empire. “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.”(Rev.17:12-18). Jerusalem has never been the headquarters of any religion that reigned over the kings of the Earth. Will the ten kings of the Eighth Beast Empire burn down the capital city of the antiChrist to whom they are allied? The antiChrist shall be in control of Jerusalem until defeated by Christ at the final battle of Armageddon.
(c) Babel: The Origin Of False Human Government
We have stated that atheism, evolution, moral relativism, and amorality will lead to anarchy, a state of nomlessness. To avoid total anarchy some form of government will be instituted to put in the checks and balances. The Big Brother is the apex of evolutionary human society and demands total and absolute allegiance and control of human activities. The Big Brother does not believe in God. The Big Brother blasphemes God. The Big Brother sits in the place and position of God. The Big Brother declares itself God. It promises its subjects peace and security in a nebulous utopian golden Age. Every citizen works for the Big Brother. Every citizen has fiat money credited and lodged in one’s account, and is given government food stamps and handouts. This sort of government kills private initiatives and turns its citizens into robots and zombies.
To maintain the status quo, the state must be policed by government security apparatus. Distrust must be created among the populace. The sanctity of the family must be rubbished by destruction of the family fabric. The Big Brother is all in all. To get family members to inform on one another, the bond that holds them together must be broken. This feat is achieved by atheism, evolution, moral relativism, and amorality. If there is no God, there is nothing wrong with abortion, euthanasia, incest, and consanguineous marriages, homosexualism and lesbianism, and transgender, etc. It is a proven fact that inbreeding amongst close relatives leads to weaker generations and genetic abnormalities. The Big Brother like Adolf Hitler believes and practices eugenics. So, the physical and mentally challenged, and the economically sterile will be eliminated. The terminally ill and those suffering from debilitating diseases will be euthanized. The Big Brother will not bother fighting epidemics. It will be regarded as a process of natural selection, the means by which nature eliminates the weak and genetically undesirable. The Big Brother has no scruples with eliminating the elderly who have lived out their usefulness and are no longer economically viable.
The Seven Beast Empires Of Satan
There are seven kings and their kingdoms which Satan have used to oppose the people of God. These are figuratively represented by Daniel as beasts in Dan.7. These are Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medopersia, Grace, Rome and Nazi Germany.
It The Eighth Beast Empire is the seventh revived. It is portrayed by the iron and the clay in the ten toes of the image of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream(Dan.2). Dan.2 parallels Dan.7. The image of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream correspond with the beasts of Dan.7. They are the Beast with 7 heads and ten horns (Rev.13:1,2), which is the 8th and Final Beast Empire, the Fourth Reich. The Great red Dragon with seven heads and ten horns is Satan who is the God of this age, and the prince and power of the air(2 Cor.4:4; Eph.2:2;Rev.12:3). He has the same characteristics with the first Beast of Rev.13:1-10, the Sea-Beast. Both the Dragon and the Sea-Beast receive worship from men, The Sea-Beast of Rev.13 is the same as the Scarlet colored Beast of Rev.17:3. Polytheism is antiGod. When anyone or anything other than the true God is worshiped, Satan is glorified.
The two legs of iron, are the two divisions of the Roman Empire, the Western Roman Empire headquartered at Rome, and the Eastern Roman Empire or Byzantium, headquatered at constantinopole which is modern day Istanbul. The Iron are the three power base nations that constituted the core of the Roman Empire. They are Magog, Meshech, and Tuval. To that we may add Javan(Greece). The six secondary nations are Babylon(Iraq, Arphaxad), Persia(Iran, Tiras), Cush, (Sudan), Phut (Libya), Gomer(Ukraine?, Turkey), Togamer (Turkey) [ Ezek.38:1,2; Rev.13:2).
The Arab people of today are a mingled people. They are an admixture of the descendants or remnants of Ishmael, the Moabites, the Ammonites, the Philistines, the children of Ketura, the second wife of Abraham, the remnants of the Amorites, the Tyreans, Sidonians, and the other ethnic groups which the Sons of Israel did not wipe out completely as the Lord commanded Moses. There are two things that unites these peoples: the Islamic religion and the Arabic language. The Islamic religions imposes the Arabic language on any people conquered by Islam. Obviously there are some tribes which claim Arabic descent who are not direct offspring of Ishmael.
It is preposterous and historically inaccurate to name the remnant of the sons of Esau, the Edomites as the Romans. The Romans are descendants of Japheth, the eldest Son of Noah. The original patrician families that founded the city of Rome in the plain of Latium are the nomadic tribes of Japheth: Magog, Meshech, and Tuval. Magog was preeminent over his brethren. Most Roman Caesars were of Germanic descent which were Magogites.
(d) Babel: The Origin Commercialism And Consummerism
In Igboland, there are four market days: eke, orie, afor, and nkwo. Each of these days is named after a deity. Every market in Igboland bears one of these names. Beside the market is a shrine to the deity. The priest of the deity administers the market. So every market in Igboland is dedicated to a deity. So, buying and selling is linked up with idolatry. Am told it is the same in Yorubaland. Commercialism is linked up with religion. A good number of businessmen and women are involved in rituals. Religion attracts and creates market for goods and vice vasa. Twice in His ministry, at the beginning, and towards the end, Jesus made a scourge and overturned the tables of money changers and chased away those who sold pigeons at the Temple in Jerusalem. The house of God should be a house of prayer, but they made it a den of robbers and thieves(Matt.21:13; Mak.11:17; Luk.19:46). The ziggurat was not only for astrology and star gazing but also served as a market and the stock Exchange. Because of a ready audience, it was also the center of entertainment. There, magicians and astrologers practised and displayed their acts there.
Financial inclusion is the means by which the Big Brother wants to gain absolute control over the lives of men. For the Big Brother to control everyone, the world must go cashless. Malaysia is at the verge of becoming the First Nation in the world to go totally cashless. In Sweden, those who are chipped with RFID need only wave their hands at NFC( Near Field Communication) reader at the train station or point of sale(POS) and payment is made and the money is deducted from their account. It makes life more wonderful but at the expense of our souls. The financial system we are talking about here when it is fully orbed will not be feasible without cashlessness. Cashlessness and the Mark Of The Beast will be in use worldwide before the emergence of the antiChrist. If you happen to be here at that time, how would react to it? I have said this several times, what the antiChrist will do is to harmonize its use worldwide, universalize it, and make it compulsory and mandatory. But it will be in use long before his appearance on the world stage.
From the 1970s our age has been declared the digital age, i.e., the age of numbering. Today, when someone asks for another’s number, he or she means the other’s phone number. We have pointed out that without BVN one cannot operate one’s account with any bank. Biometric data like passport size photograph, finger print, name, address, state of origin, date of birth, etc are no longer enough. One must have a number which is a set of digits unique to the individual. Of late, I wanted to order a book from Amazon. The transaction could not be completed without my international passport number or my NIN number. The implication is that Nigerians who do not have NIN or international passport numbers cannot purchase anything on Amazon. They want us to be a number compliant generation. Digitization is surreptitiously creeping in on us, and the saints have not been sensitized of its ultimate goal and danger. It is not innocuous; indeed, it is soul damming. It is part of the antiChrist’s infrastructure for global surveillance and control.
As Dr. Jaiyesimi Gbenga has pointed out, the buzz words in Nigeria today are “financial inclusion” and “mobile banking.” Our banks encourage us to do our banking activities on line through our mobile phones or tablets. Some banks offer as much as 80% charge free transactions. The bet, of course, is financial inclusion. If you don’t get online you will be financially excluded. In other words you lose some financial benefits. The UN, World Bank, IMF want all citizens of the globe to have digital identity for the purpose of financial inclusion and commerce. They call it “Global Digital Identity for Financial Inclusion.” It is all part of globalization and digitization. What that means is that every citizen of the Globe will have unique number of identification to be financially inclusive. When fully orbed, no one without this number will be able to engage in any meaningful business transactions. Does it not sound like the Mark Of the Beast without which no can buy or sell?
“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”(Rev.13:16-18).
Ab initio, one would be required to provide this number on demand to do business, register as students in institutions. But as time goes on, microchip account will be generated in one’s name with this number alongside other biometric data specific to the individual which will later on be implanted hypodermically as RFID. Online and at POS, as well as on ports of entry, one would be required to provide this number. It will become one’s personal identity, unique to every individual on Earth. Anyone who opts out will be economically boycotted, and later on hounded to comply or be liquidated and vaporized altogether. We can go along with them until it becomes mandatory to implant it on our persons. That is the point of demarcation. It is the point of no return. It is the “divide” or “watershed.” Anyone who takes this number on his or her person has sold one’s soul to the Devil for eternity. Believers must have the bravado to say no at that point in time. And to be successful at that, we must start now to prepare ourselves mentally and to plan to opt out of the society when that time arrives. Believers who are waiting to be raptured before the antiChrist arrives will be hopelessly disappointed as they will be roped in unawares.
(e) The Family
The family is under vicious assault from humanism. If there is no God, there is no standard for morality. God is the standard for morality. If there is no standard for morality what right have parents to tell their children what to do. If there is no God, children are under no obligations to obey their parents. Thus the fabric of the family is destroyed. Every society, institution or nation is as strong as its family unit. In SA the injured husband cannot seek redress in the case of adultary. In Germany siblings marriage has been legalized. Sexual relations between father and daughter, mother and son are practised in our society today. Thamuz was the first person to enter into sexual union with the mother, and later married her. He was the son as well as husband of the mother Semiramis. This is an abomination. This is exactly what Satan wants. When family members are in incestous relations one with another, there is neither love nor respect nor trust. Jealousy and envy will reign in such a family. They can easily betray one another. A father can betray the son to death and vice vasa. The mother can betray the daughter or daughter-in-law to death and vice vasa. No wonder then that a man’s foes shall be members of his own household(Matt.10:36).
The system of government of the Big Brother shall be based on mistrust. The antiChrist will trust no one. Therefore his citizens shall be encouraged to inform on one another. Parents shall report on their children, and the children shall be against their parents. The daughter-in-law shall be against the mother-in-law, and vice versa. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law in law. And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household(Matt.10:34-36). The Big Brother shall apply the principle of divide and rule. He will destroy family fabrics, and encourage evil of all sorts. He shall not respect family ties. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold(Matt.24:10,12). Even within the church shall arise false brethren who shall betray others. It shall not be advisable to trust anyone at that unless one can vouch for them. Now brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death(Mark 13:12). Those shall be evil days and times indeed.
(f) Babel: Contemporary Art And Media
Art once represented the highest aspirations of mankind. The art of ancient Israel found its highest expression in the worship of Jehovah, as seen in the stupendously magnificent adornment of the tabernacle and the temple, it’s high priest etc. Art was seen as an expression of faith. Although there are still some good artists who express the virtues of man and the wonders of creation etc, some contemporary artist exhibit explicit photographs of homosexual erotica such as sadism, masochism, sadomasochism, pedophelia and scatology.
Andres Serrano glories in his postmodern blasphemy, in which he displays a photograph of a crucifix immersed in urine. The fall of man has negatively affected every culture from the time of Adam to the present day, it is more telling in our age than in the previous ones. Unborn babies are murdered in their thousands each day all over the world. Sexual perversion is promoted by the entertainment media. Marriage, child upbringing and family life are under vicious assault. Our freedom to speak openly of biblical truth is fast being eroded. Little wonder therefore we are fast approaching the end of the ages.
Widespread Acceptance Of Humanistic Evolution(2 Pet.3:3-7; Rom.1:18-20)
Widespread acceptance of evolutionary thinking will characterize the general climate of thought in the last days prior to the emergence of the antiMessiah. This is evident in New Age belief and practices. This is also the general climate of thought in all secular institutions of higher learning, and amongst the academia and intelligentsia in our societies. Apostle Peter predicted this general climate of thought that will prevail in the last days in his second epistle.
“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word Of God the heavens were of old, and the Earth standing out of the water and in the water: whereby the world that the was, being overflowed with water, perished: but the heaven and the Earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men” ( 2Pet.3:3-7).
Here, in this passage of the Scriptures, Apostle Peter gives us a perfect definition of scientific uniformitarianism. Scientific uniformitarianism is a modern scientific theory and belief that all physical laws and principles, as well as psychological and sociological laws and principles after the appearance of mankind, have operated essentially the same way throughput time. This theory is the driving force of modern evolutionism. It is the official position in the leading scientific institutions in the world today. This is the one area in which the same old lie told Eve in the Garden Of Eden by the beguiling serpent, Satan, is used to deceive humans in the one area in which God holds accountable.
” For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the World are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse” ( Rom.1:1-20).
Every infant is born with some intrinsic knowledge. For starters, the infant is alive and conscious. It feels pain, irritation, and fright etc. it is also aware of its environment. Along with this intrinsic awareness is the knowledge that we are created by God. Besides this basic intrinsic knowledge is the fact that God has also revealed himself in nature. The general orderliness of nature tells us that there is a creator at work. The nitrogen cycle, the cycle of water between the Earth and the atmospheric heavens, the cycle of generation, life, death and regeneration, all these tell us of the Great Designer of the Universe that is God. For man to be spoofed into believing that evolution is a fact is a diabolical deceptive substitution for God’s direct creative Acts, the one area in which God holds man accountable; for he is without excuse.
Alas, for Satan has successfully negated the one area where men are held accountable by God. Though we may salve our conscience that we evolved, and therefore, there is no God nor universal moral standard by which we can live, even our own consciences convict us: for we are accountable unto God, and therefore inexcusable. Though scientific uniformitarianism denies God’s intervention in human history, God intervened in Noah’s day and drowned the world that then was in a deluge, sparing only Noah and his family. Modern man may sweep away the deluge under the rug as mythical and legendary, there are historical and scientific evidence of the deluge.
Before the AntiMessiah appears on the world stage, men are going to mock us believers in Jesus the Messiah, saying, where is the promise of His coming? This they will say because they believe in evolution. If man evolved, there is no God. And if there is no God, there is no divine intervention in human history. This they say because they are willingly ignorant of the fact that by the Word Of God, the heaven were made and all the hosts of them by the breath of his mouth(Ps.33:6). God made the world of Noah’s day out of nothing, creation ex nihilo. By the same word of God was the world of Noah’s day destroyed by water. The present world in which we live is reserved unto and shall also be salted with the fire of God’s judgment during the Great Day Of The Lord.
God also intervened in the days of Lot in the cities of the plain, Sodom, Gomorrah, Zeboim and Adama. In judgment, they were salted with fire and brimstone. So the mockery of humanistic evolution and scientific uniformitarianism is an empty mockery.
Evolution is also the central pillar of racism. It is supposedly the scientific basis of racism. The idea of inferior and superior races is founded on evolution. Much of Adolf Hitler’s philosophy was based on Charles Darwin’s Origin Of Species. Evolution especially of the Darwinian and Lamarckian variety is the central pillar of racism. Charles Darwin and Huxley were both proponents of Aryan supremacy. Adolf Hitler’s Nazism was the most vicious of philosophies built on evolutionism. The background for this is found in the teachings of Darwin’s contemporary propagandist in Germany, Ernst Haeckel, who was believed to be the most influential evolutionist in continental Europe.
As historian Gasman has shown, these men believed in the aristocratic and non-democratic character of the laws of nature. Up to his death in 1919, Haeckel contributed to that special variety of German thought which served as a seed-bed for Hitler’s national socialism. He became one of the Germany’s main and most influential ideologues for racism, nationalism, and imperialism. Hitler used the idea of biological evolution as the most influential weapon against traditional religion. He condemned Christianity for its opposition to the teachings of evolution.
As we can see, 2 Pet.3:4,5, predicted evolution will be the dominant thought in the world as we approach the 70th Seven of Daniel. It will be used to justify racism, pitting the kingdoms of the world ruled by Satan against the inferior Christians and Jews, the servants of God who keep His commandments, and hold to the testimony of Jesus the Christ. In the same way Adolf Hitler used humanistic evolutionary thinking to justify anti-Semitism, and the Holocaust, so will the antiChrist use atheistic philosophy to justify the annihilation of Jews, Christians, and all who refuse to be branded with the mark of the Beast.
Babel: The Global Ideal And Technology
Tesla and Space X founder Elon Musk who wants to send man to Mars has warned that a future where AI is smarter than us will be dangerous. We must all become cyborgs if we are to survive the inevitable robot crisis. http://www.wired.co.uk/article/elon-musk-humans-must-become-cyborgs.
Please read this article. Understand what a cyborg is. That is where the world is headed. Can a cyborg be a good Christian? How will a cyborg fair as a Christian? Christians belonging to Generation X and beyond are faced with this choice even before the antiChrist hangs out his shingles. ‘And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil…’ should be our prayers in this end time as ungodliness fills the Earth.
We must pray, but also we must understand the times and the seasons, and the machinations of the evil one, and the variegated, subtle, and seemingly innocuous ways by which Satan wants to force us into his mold, and enslave us for ever. Man merging with machines may appear exciting and innocuous, but indeed, it is flagrant idolatry; it is antiGod. It is an alteration of the divine image in man. A time will come when those of us who reject merging with machines will look primitive and outmoded. It will be extremely difficult to function in society at that time outside of these machines. This will certainly put pressure on the younger generation to conform to become cyborgs. If it is not us, it will be them, our children, grandchildren, and great grandchilren. What shall we tell them when they come to tell us they want microchips and nanobots implanted in their brains to enhance academic excellence, crack computer codes, or enhance athletic performance? Believe me, this will certainly happen before the antiChrist emerges on the world stage. What shall we tell them? Is the Church prepared for this crisis of identity?
Do our church leaders, Pastors, and ministers know? Are believers open to learning about these issues? Or shall we pretend that it does not matter, like the self-styled preachers of righteousness who tell us: ” all we have to do is live right, and we shall be raptured whenever the Rapture occurs. What does it mean to live right? Does sin consist only in lying, cheating, murder, amorous relations, breaking out into open idolatry, etc? These sins consist of individual choices. What about gene alteration? A generation hybridized is a generation lost. What brought about escalation of evil in the antedeluvian world? Was it not alteration of the human genome by cohabitation of fallen evil angels and human females(Gen.6)? The goal of Satan has always been the same, it has not changed: to destroy or disqualify man. But he has added new methods in his arsenal. The antiChrist cannot take over the world without cyborgs. Jesus chided with Pharisees for tithing mint, anise, and cummin, but neglecting the weightier matters of the law, justice, mercy, and faith(Matt.23:23). If we preach and teach success, the good life, promotion, prosperity, how to be happy all the time, etc; and leave out these weightier issues of the End Times, we would have acted like the hypocritical Pharisees. Shall we be commended before God?
A Pastor is an undershepherd under Jesus the good Shepherd. He is under “heaven’s oat” to teach the congregants by word of mouth and by example the whole counsel of God. This is enormous responsibility. He cannot only teach faith, prosperity, promotion, success, etc, and neglect the weightier issues of the End Times. It is not a matter of that is not my message. That is not what am called to preach. That is not my forte. Or am called to preach faith or healing, promotion, success, prosperity, divine protection, dominion, etc. If one had elected to be a Pastor, one has elected to preach and teach the whole counsel of God, more so the weightier matters of the end times. Evangelists must win souls and send them to the Church. Ministers who run parachurch ministries must teach whatever they called to teach. But pastors have enormous responsibility to teach the whole counsel of God.
Some believers do not know what a cyborg means. A dear saint defined it as follows: “Cybernetic organisms cannot have the spirit in them. They could only be programmed to behave like christian . But there’s no human yet whose whole body is made to function completely by electromechanical devices. I think a cyborg is still a medical fiction.” Is this the correct definition of a cyborg? She conflates a robot with a cyborg. A cyborg is a real human being who is merged with machines. He is a person who interfaces with machines and controls everything around him with microchips implanted in various parts of his body, and is in turn controlled by a giant computer somewhere run by the Big Brother, the government, some institution or organisation. His performance is tremendously enhanced by microchips. Sometimes he acts like a robot in areas where he is already programmed, but he is still capable of autonomous and independent actions in other areas where he is not programmed.
Satan is trying to force the believers into his mold especially through technology, and the cares of this life. The cares of this life are not in and of themselves sinful, but could lead one into compromising position of one’s faith. Our notion of holiness should not be repentance and righteous living alone. By righteous living I mean, no lies, cheating, no stealing, no sexual immoralities, etc. We know that a believer can do all these things and yet wind up not being raptured if he or she is surreptitiously lead into receiving the mark of the Beast. We must not be like the Pharisees, hypocrites who pay tithe of mint, anise, and cummin, but neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faith. Jesus chided them: these you ought to have done without neglecting the others. We must teach holiness and righteous living. That is one side of the coin, the obverse. We must not neglect the other side, the reverse: the subtle ways by which we could be lured into compromises with the things of this world. Which believer does not know that lying, cheating, stealing, embezzlement of funds whether that of the Church or government or NGO etc, sexual immoralities, pornographies, and murders are sinful? These are givens.
But how many believers know that becoming a cyborg or being hybridised in any form will lead one to eternal damnation? Do they even know the difference between a robot and a cyborg? Do they know the meaning of transhuman, nephilim, hybrid human, or humanoid? Can any one imagine the pressure under which a young believer who is a graduate and highly skilled will be to become a cyborg less he lose his job to robots in the near future. The Church will be required to economically boycott the world before the Great Tribulation before the world economically boycott the Church during the Great Tribulation. How do we do that? By establishing businesses that cater to the needs of the Church especially in difficult times like the Great Tribulation. Yuval Noah Harari, a lecturer in history at Hebrew University, Jerusalem, has written a book tiltled Homo Deus, in which he painted a picture of uncertainty as what man will be and what he needs to survive in the next two centuries. Do the Churches have such foresight and prepare the younger generation for this kind of eventualities and exigencies?
Elon Musk has seen the difficulty from economic perspective and is warning the world: ” become cyborgs less you lose your jobs to robots.” He has also seen the spiritual aspect, and warns that “by artificial intelligence we are summoning the demon.” He also said, without oversight, AI could pose an existential threat to humanity. The Church should see both the economic and spiritual perspectives and warn the believers: ” Don’t become cyborgs less you lose your precious and eternal souls to Satan.” Leaders are visionaries and dreamers. They dream dreams. They see things ahead of time. They are watchmen. They see and warn others of what is coming ahead whether good or bad. Someone in England was imprisoned for suggesting that some day men in different parts of the world will be speaking to one another directly. He died in jail. But what he saw then in his mind’s eye is a reality in our day. Before the antiChrist shows up on the world stage, believers will be under economic pressure to become cyborgs.
(1) Men + Angels = Nephilim.
“There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. “There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.”(Gen.6:4-8).
The Hebrew word nephilim is the plural of naphal which means fallen one. They were the offspring of the unnatural union between fallen angels who sided with Satan in the rebellion, and were cast out of the Heaven of heavens which is the abode of the Almighty, and human females. Jewish tradition holds that some of them survived the deluge and gave rise to the giants that were of old like the Anakim. The sight of these men frightened the spies of Israel into making a false confession of their invincibility. “And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”(Num.13:33). Noah found grace in the eyes of God because he was not hybridised with fallen evil angels. The statement that “Noah was righteous or perfect in His generation” is better rendered, “Noah was pure in his descendants.” “These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.”(Gen.6:9).
The only reason Noah and his household were preserved was because they were not hybridised; they were the only pure humans. It was the mercy of God that kept them from being hybridised, in order to preserve humanity. We must refuse to be hybridized in our generation. The younger generations, generation X, generation Z, and beyond are in danger of accepting these things unquestioningly as part of scientific development and advancement, not knowing it is to the detriment of their souls. They will be under enormous social and economic pressures to comply and become cyborgs less they lose their jobs to robots and become economically obsolescent and irrelevant. The highly skilled professionsls are more in danger. Therefore, it is obligatory for us to warn them. Jewish rabbis know these things and warn the world but Church leaders, our General Overseers, Bishops, Pastors, and Evangelists do not.
(2) Man + Animal = Humanoid.
(3) Man + Machine = Cyborg.
(4) Men + Angels + Animals + Machines = Nephilim
(5) Men + Angels + Animals = Nephilim
(6) Men + Angels + Machines = Nephilim
All these are also called transhumans or hybrid humans. The aim of Satan is to destroy or disqualify man so that he cannot be saved. These things are not new. Satan had experimented with these notions in antiquity. In antiquity it was man and angels as recorded in Gen.6 quoted above. But Jewish rabbis believe animals were also involved. Am inclined to believe that too. If not why did God destroy the animals also? “And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.”(Gen.6:7). Why did it repent God that He created animals also? We know that the sperm of a dog, under certain conditions can fertilize the ovum of a woman and vice versa. Under the law God decreed that those who engage in bestiality should be cut off from the living. “Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.”(Leviticus 18:23). “And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.”(Leviticus 20:15). This is not only because of demonization but also because of danger of hybridization.
What is new today is the inclusion of machines. The 20th century German philosopher, Martin Heidegger warned that technology was going to destroy humanity. A cyborg can never be saved. And humanity is about to metamorphose into cyborgs. Raymond Kursweil claims we are already cyborgs; our cell phones, tablets and computers are extensions of ourselves. But the interface is limited through our fingers. But that is about to change with microchips, nanobots as small as blood cells, and neural lace through injectable neural mesh in the brain we can be connected to neocortices in the cloud, and can access enormous amount of information in an instant. Believers must be warned never to become cyborgs. Before we were Homo Sapiens, and then we became Homo Sapiens Sapiens or simply Sapiens. But very soon man shall be Homo Deus, man independent of God. Man doing his thing in defiance to God. But is he really man? He has lost his soul to Satan as he merges with machines, biometrics, and AI(artificial intelligence), and becomes an automaton. Scientists, philosophers, technologists, historians, and Jewish rabbis are talking about these things, but the leaders of the Church are oblivious of it. C’est bien triste. It is very dismal.
The Tesla and SpaceX founder warned that a future where AI is smarter than us will be ‘dangerous.’ We must all become cyborgs if we are to survive the inevitable robot uprising. The rampant popularity of tattoos is desensitizing the world in a way that may cause the Mark of the Beast to seem as innocuous as ‘just another tattoo’. The prophetic words of the Bible have never rung more true and relevant than they do today with the transition to digital currency taking place in many countries and the reliance on identity now possible with a “mark” such as implanted RFID chips. NewFusion may be the first Belgian company to chip their employees, but with rumours circulating that other are considering similar policies, they likely won’t be the last. Three Square Market has implanted a rice-sized RFID microchip into 40 of its employees who volunteered. Some may opine that there is nothing dangerous about these technological innovations. They are here to enhance our economic status. In some ways, they make life more easier and more wonderful. They will certainly enhance economic status, but is life all about economy? I wonder!
You see my brethren, the issue is not that simple. Let’s take the hypothetical case of a believer who is highly skilled, employed by a technological company. Now the company comes up with a policy to have all employees chipped for the purpose of identification, security, to enhance performance, and ease of access to company facilities. Will this highly skilled brother or sister accept to be branded in order to retain his or her job, or refuse and lose his or her means of livelihood. Bear in mind that he or she is highly skilled and will not easily and readily land another job in another company. What if he or she does not know the implications of branding for a Christian since most pastors do not talk about it. Remember totoos have been popularised by sports celebrities who act as role models for the youths of our genetation. There are Christian football stars who wear totoos, and are quick to tell you they are innocuous. What we are saying is that the Church is not sensitising its members to the dangers of these things. If Christians do not know that they are of evil origin and may compromise their faith, how can they reject them? Today, it is one company in Belgium, tomorrow it will all companies all over the World. Do you see the reason why I say the Church must economically boycott the the world before the the world would economically boycott the Church. Totoos, microchip, and biometric implants are here to stay. Believers need to be sensitised to their dangers.
Machine + AI = Robot
Elon Musk has warned that man has to become cyborgs in order not to lose jobs to robots. How is the Church preparing its members to survive the foreseen robots crisis without compromising their faith or losing their souls to the Devil? Are we going to fold our hands, and say, “it does not matter” , or “it is for those in Europe and America” ? If cell phones and computers are not for those in Europe and America only, so also AI and robots. Unlike the industrial revolution, the robots crisis may lead some in the Church, especially the younger generation to compromise of their faith.
Man wants to attain Godhood. By that they mean to conquer death and live for ever in this sinful body of ours. By that they hope to become Homo Dei. That is the next stage of humanistic evolution. Man does not want to conquer sin. Sin is not a problem to them. They have accepted it: they love it. To them there is nothing like sin. It is matter of like or dislike. The holiness of God is not enticing to them. What is enticing to them is immortality. They do not believe in God. They believe man evolved. Those of them who believe in God, do not believe He is interested in the affairs of men anymore. Some of them believe God created the world, set it like a clock to run according natural laws in creation and retired into heaven. They want man to live for ever in this wretched body of ours, in a sinful state independent of God, in defiance to His commandments.
Therefore man wants to merge with machines and become cyborgs. Would you like your sons and daughters in the military to be super soldiers and super policemen? These bio-engineered soldiers and policemen who interface with machines, are they still Homo sapiens? Some like Peter Thiel, the founder of PayPal believe in parabiosis. They believe by transfusing themselves with the blood of young people they can attain longevity and with time immortality. This is not entirely new. What is new is the scientific approach. In antiquity among all peoples, warriors and priests of deities drank the blood of their captives and victims. By that they hoped to attain longevity and immortality. Witches and wizards transfigure into vampires bats to suck the blood of others to increase their longevity. But God forbids man to eat blood, even those of animals: ” For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls(Lev.17:11-14).
Raymond Kurzweil, Google’s director of technology has predicted the nearness of singularity. Singularity is a point in astrophysics when every exponent is one. With the exponential increase in computer technology and artificial intelligence man would have to merge with machines or become utterly irrelevant and obsolete. This will be the death of human civilization as we know it as cyborgs take over the world. Raymond Kursweil also wants to upload his soul into a computer and live as a software for ever. He wants to bring his late father or his replicant back to life. This would have been laughable were it not that these men are so serious, dedicated and committed to their goals. Aubrey De Gray, the British biologist with a formidable beards has a seven-point plan to conquer death. Formidable questions they are, but are they unanswerable? Certainly not. When men attempted to build a tower that would reach up to heaven, did God relax, fold His hands and say, ” it is unattainable.” He came down from the heavens to confound their language. With time man will achieve his aim of messing up humanity. But God in His omnipotence and infinite wisdom will not allow that to happen. Before man archives his goal, God will swoop down from the heavens and reclaim His rule over and retake physical possession of the Earth.
Using hologram or robot, one can address any audience in their native language. The image of the Beast which the false prophet will cause to speak or arrest those who refuse to wear the mark of the Beast will be a robot fashioned in the exact copy of the Beast. “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.”(Rev.13:15 KJV). Robocops and robosoldiers are now ready for use in the US, China, and in Russia. In the event of World War, many first world countries will field robosoldiers into the battlefield. Vladimir Putin, the president of the Russian Federation said: “the future of warfare is in the field of robotics. If the robots of one nation defeats another, the other nation has no choice but to surrender.” This is quite reasonable. If my robots have defeated yours, certainly your men have not choice but to surrender because your men cannot stand my robots. Robots are stronger than men. They can maneuver through difficult terrains, establish bridgeheads and conquer enemy territory before human soldiers move in to hold the position. In the event of widespread riots, some of these nations like US, China, and Russia can field robocops to quell the riots and arrest rioters.
Sexbots are now in use in Europe and America for those who can afford the cost. With time, the cost of production will plummet and it be at the beck and call of anyone who desires it. They are tailored accordingly to the specifications provided by the costumer. Many men are fed up with the foibles of women, and would rather do with a sexbot which is not saddled with human weaknesses and emotional variations. Sexual relations with these objects are temple-defiling sins that lead to demonization.
In laboratories hidden in the Amazon forest in Brazil and the Tropical African Rain forest in the Congo, scientists are busy tinkering and experimenting to incorporate animal and plant genes in the human genome. Hybrid humans who can live under water for days and months without breathing by photosynthesizing and generating oxygen have been demonstrated in sci-fi films. The carbon dioxide they generate by catabolism they recycle and reuse to generate oxygen via photosynthesis, and thereby bit air hunger. They are called green men. Because they cannot totally excrete the chlorophyll they produce by photosynthesis their skin is stained green. It is Hollywood that imagines and demonstrates it in sci-fi films and then the scientists go to the laboratory to make it a reality. Imagine a man with the agility and mentality of a tiger? Will he not tear other men to pieces when he is angry? The Big Brother wants such men in the army, police, and the secret service.
What greater power there is in man than to reproduce himself, than to see himself in his children. Children are a delight to their parents(Ps.127:3-5). God ordained that children should be born in holy heterosexual matrimony, and grow up in the family settings bonding with parents and siblings and near kinsfolks(Eph.6:1-4). But today, in these secret laboratories, children are grown in plastic womb with ova and semen harvested from criminal and felons. These children belong to the Big Brother; they have no known parents, no siblings, and no families. They are state property. Worst of all, their affects are flat: they have no emotions. They can kill without any sympathy or empathy to their victims. They are free from the scourge of guilty conscience.
Swarming drone technology can be used to eliminate anyone using facial recognition. It is written: “If those days were not cut short, no flesh(believers) shall be saved.”(Matt.24:22). They are called swarming drones because they swarm like bees and mosquitoes. They are as tiny as mosquitoes. They can be airborne and remain in flight for hours and days until they identity the target face using GPS and facial recognition. They are precision killing machines. They pierce the skull and penetrate into the brain and explode. Little or no damage is done to the rest of the body of the victim and the environment. Others who are not targeted in the vicinity are safe.
5G network is not just for fast internet connectivity, it is for transparency and visibility. It is for intelligence; it is Big Brother’s third eye. With 5G Towers, the Big Brother will be tracking you in the most dystopian form to gain absolute and complete surveillance. With 5G network, there are no barriers, everything and everyone is visible. 5G network sees through walls , metals, solid objects and barriers. The Big Brother can monitor everyone and everything. There will be no privacy nor secrecy. With 5G network you are visible and audible in your bedroom, closet, as well as in your office or in transit. 5G network is for global surveillance and control. With global digital identity, cashlessness, and IoT, no human activity will be private or shrouded in secrecy. The Big Brother knows everyone, sees everyone, and sees and knows what everyone is doing at all times.
Everyone’s life will be a video being broadcast to the Big Brother. And with a policy of zero tolerance to opposition and rebellion, this kind of Orwellian Government will put almost everyone in fear and dread of its security apparatus. From the sites you visit on the net, whom you chat with or chat up, places you visit, your friends and relatives, the companies you keep, your habits, and your purchases, your behavior, actions, and intents of your heart can be pretty well predictable. Rebellion will be almost impossible to organize, for it can be pretty well predicted ahead of time of actualization and nipped in the bud. In a society of this kind, men and women are literally paralyzed with in fear, cowered, and are zombies and robots to the system.
5G Towers will be installed every 300 meters or every 2-10 houses. 5G emits EMI up to 95Ghz which is potentially harmful to the human body. Potential effects are concers, fetal abnormalities, neurological abnormalities, neuropsychiatric abnormalities, and depressed immune system.
Artificial Womb
Technology is turning things around in our world. Medical technology is about to change reproductive medicine especially childbirth as we know it. In state-of-the-art laboratories, scientists are working on raising fetuses from conception to term outside of the womb. In medical parlance, it is called ECTOGENESIS in contrast to ENDOGENESIS.
The technology is quite complex though simple also. The plastic or artificial womb is like an aquarium filled with synthetic amniotic fluid. The fetus in the aquarium is connected to feeding tubes and monitoring cables. It grows as in a womb, but everything is perfect, in scientific sense in the artificial ectogenous environment. The right concentrations of sugars, lipids, amino acids, minerals, electrolytes and vitamins and hormones are maintained in such a manner that the fetus grows in a most healthier way possible. The feeding tubes stream all vital and essentials nutrients and oxygen to survive and develop optimally. The heartbeat is monitored and the fetal kick is monitored, recorded and charted and logged. Adjustments are made according to needs arising.
This is a giant scientific lip. There are ethical issues involved though. It will bring a fundamental change in human experience. It will change the way the female body is viewed. It will also usher in a new era of reproductive rights. So, how are people going to feel about it? How are people going to react to it. Obviously the reactions will be mixed. Some will be excited about it, others may be scared or even confused about ectogenesis.
It will certainly help a couple who cannot gestate, for instance, due to congenital absence of the womb or some other factors like the loss of uterus through septic abortion, damage to the uterus through accident etc. There will be no need for a surrogate mother to bear the fetus to term which could be very expensive and may endanger the life of the surrogate mother especially in the case where she is an elderly woman. In Western Europe, a good number of women are reluctant to go through pregnancy and bear children. They want to maintain their physiognomy. These women will now have opportunity to have children without being responsible for childbirth, a process that is scary and painful to most women.
Some pregnant mothers go for elective Caesarean section in order to avoid the pains of childbirth. These women will no longer have to worry about the discomforts of pregnancy and pains of childbirth. They will not have to worry about the personal risks associated with childbirth and the effects on their health and physiognomy. They will feel liberated. They will not have to make any sacrifices to give birth. For example, they could work, exercise, eat and drink whatever they like without having to worry about harming the babies in their wombs or hampering their development. A woman who is an alcoholic would not have to bother about her baby being tolerant to alcohol from her womb due to the high level of alcohol in her blood(blood alcohol level) which is passed over to the fetus through the placenta. The same goes for drugs of addiction.
On the surface, it does look like healthier babies and women are the outcome of this medical technology. On the other hand, some women who cherish conception, pregnancy and childbirth may feel cheated and disconnected from the sanctity of motherhood. What about the intimacy which only the mother can provide. Bonding begins from day onf of conception. This will be negatively affected. A father may opine, “just because I did not gestate my baby does not mean I cannot bond with it.” We are looking at a complex situation where the period of gestation in the mother’s womb must have already bequeathed the baby with a healthy human emotion. We are looking at a case where this healthy emotion may be absent. Some mothers may like to go through pregnancy and childbirth, to be cared for by their spouse and loved ones.
There is a bonding that goes on in pregnancy not only between mother and fetus but also between the fetus in the womb and other family members as they care for the pregnant mother the value of which may be incalculable. This essential part of human consciousness will be lost in an artificial womb. One day the family is called and informed that its baby is ready. They can come collect it. Especially in a typical African setting, there is some level of attention, respect, care a woman receives not only from her husband and the immediate family members but from the community during pregnancy.
Prior to this time babies have never grown completely in vitro. Conception takes place in the test tube(in vitro). At the morula stage, it is transferred to the womb of the mother or surrogate mother(in vivo) for further gestation till term. Whatever are the benefits, there will be an outcry and vicious backlashes from traditionalists: the God-fearing people who hold conservative social views. This kind of radical and unprecedented technology will threaten to disrupt the age-old interdependency between men and women. It will undoubtedly alter our view of society. It will increase the number of single mothers and fathers in our society. Ectogenesis will radically redefine motherhood. Members of the LGBTQ+ will be overjoyed; homosexual and lesbian couples can have as many children as they can afford to have have. Will this be a disruption in the natural order of flow. Will these babies be brought up in a healthy family environment?
The other thing we have to factor in is human stupidity. Adolf Hitler and the Nazis practised Eugenics during World War II. They cross-bred high profile German men and women in order to produce a purer and a better Aryan race. Geneticist have shown that it would have backfired. It would hav led to a weaker Aryan race in subsequent generations. Another Hitler may rise in the future to consider mass production of humans in the laboratory to subjugate other nations. Tanshuman might be bred in this way using two or more ova. One very obvious reason why this is scary is that humans have a penchant to pervert that which is inherently good. There has not been anything good created by God or man which men have not perverted simply because they are totally deprave. It is in the nature of fallen man to pervert that which is inherently good. Ectogenesis is not inherently evil in itself, but it may be put to evil use. It is subject to abuse by totally deprave humanity.
There is bonding in the womb between mother and fetus. In utero, the the fetus feels the same emotions that the mothers feels: joy, happiness, pain, sorrow, elation, fear, worry, anxiety, etc. A fetus grown in a plastic womb is emotionless. Its affect is flat. It will be even worse if it has no women to call mother or man to call father, and no biological relatives to call brother, sister, cousin or uncle throughout life. It will have no sympathy let alone empathy. People may hale it as scientific breakthrough that will help women who have no uterus which may well be true, but it will lead to mass production of men and women with flat affect who have no known biological or foster parents or relations, who will see themselves as soulless temporal beings like animals.
When I die that will be the end of it. There is no heaven where righteous men and women may live in eternal bliss, and there is no Hell where sinners may be punished in eternal torment. This is a dangerous trend, but it is not unexpected. The Igbos have a saying: “a n’aso mgbagbu ma o bu ngide eje ogu,” which interpreted means: “you do not fear being taken captive or killed when you go to war.” The fact that men might pervert what is good will not deter us from creating what is good, though men might put it to perverse use.
(h) Babylon: The Empire That Was
Babylon was the third Beast Empire Satan used to persecute Israel. Babylon under the leadership of Nebuchadnezzar II led Israel into captivity in 586 BC. There were three waves of invasion and exile, 606, 596, and 586. Babylon however was conquered by Medopersia in 539 BC by Cyrus the Persian. There has been attempts to rebuild Babylon as a Empire, but it had always come to naught. Babylon revolted against Medopersian rule in 521 and 514 BC. Each time the rebellion was quelled with minimal damage to the city wall which was subsequently repaired. Babylon as an empire will never be rebuilt. Saddam Hussein who claimed to be a direct descendant of Nebuchadnezzar II made concerted effort to rebuild Babylon as an empire but failed woefully. It was an enterprise that was doomed to fail from the beginning. Had he understood biblical history and the workings of God, he would not have nursed nor cherished such grandiose delusion.
It was the second of the Semitic empires that negatively impacted Israel. The first was Assyria. Babylon defeated Assyria at the battle of Babylonia in 626 BC and again at the battle of Nineveh in 612 BC. After the battle of Nineveh, Assyria never recovered. There is a movement of power here. The first of the world class empires to negatively impact Israel was Egypt. The foundation of Egypt was Hamitic through Mizraim. The empire itself was also Hamitic. Egypt was defeated by Assyria. It is not clear whether it is Nimrod or Asshur that founded Nineveh. However, it believed by many that it was Nimrod who founded the city. Therefore, the foundation of Assyria is also Hamitic. We must understand that after the deluge, all the sons of Noah dwelt together in the Mesopotamia. Not all Hamitic people left Mesopotamia. Nimrod, a descendant of Ham through Cush is beloved to be the first king of Assyria, Sargon I. He was also believed to be a naphal, one of the fallen angels who cohabited with human females who survived the deluge.
What we are trying to show here is the movement of power from Ham to Shem and then to Japheth the elder. When a peoples group was defeated, they did not regain power. So power moved from Egypt, a Hamitic people to Assyria and Babylon, though founded by Hamitic peoples but consisted largely of Semitic peoples. So, when Babylon lost power to Medopersia in 539 BC, power moved from Semitic peoples to Japhetic peoples. It will never again return to the Semitic or Hamitic peoples till the end of times. So, global power must remain in the hands of Japhetic peoples till the end of times. The next four Beast Empires of Satan, Medopersia, Greece, Rome, Nazi Germany were Japhetic in origin. The Eighth And Final Beast Empire of Satan will consists of all peoples groups, but the leadership and power base shall be Japhetic from Magog, Meshech, and Tuval.
Therefore, Babylon as an empire will never be revived, though the city of Babylon itself may be rebuilt and come into religious and commercial prominence. Although Babylon will be part of the ten nation coalition of the Eighth And Final Beast Empire of Satan, it will never be the political capital of the Empire. The Beast shall move his seat of government from somewhere in the land of Magog to Jerusalem at the midpoint of the 70th week of Daniel. “And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.”(Daniel 11:45 KJV). The glorious Holy Mountain is Jerusalem, the capital of Israel. This also conclusively proves that Israel shall be in possession of the Temple Mount till the midpoint of the 70th week of Daniel.
(i) The Rebuilding Of Babylon.
Like Assyria, the foundation of the city of Babylon was Hamitic through Nimrod, the mighty hunter before the Lord. It was this Nimrod who instituted false human government and false religion, the mother-child worship, vestiges of which is evident amongst all peoples of the Earth. It was that Nimrod who in defiance to God builded Babel. Following the confusion of languages at Babel(Babylon), the various descendants of Noah bore the vestiges of the religion founded by Nimrod to the various parts of the Earth as they migrated. Although the foundation of the city is Hamitic, the rulers of the Babylonian empire were Semitic. As a city Babylon was never destroyed in the past as prophesied by Isaiah. “And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans’ excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.”(Isaiah 13:19 KJV). It must be rebuilt and come into commercial and religious prominence in the last days. Both the Roman Catholics and the New Age Movement have a programme of Babylonization. They want to go back to their roots; all religions have their roots in Babylon. The ancestors of all the peoples of the Earth today migrated from Babylon.
Babylon as a city have started to be rebuilt. It was began by Saddam Hussein. It is now more or less an archeological site and a tourist attraction. There are some native Iraqis who dwell there. However, it will continue to be rebuilt until it comes into prominence as a commercial city and the headquarters of all religions, the one world religion. After Satan and his fallen evil demons are cast down from the Earth, some of these fallen evil angels, the principalities, the powers, and wicked spirits in the heavenly shall find abode in the rebuilt city of Babylon(Rev.12:7-9, 18:2). This brings an explosion in its population and commercial prominence. This Babylon, the center of commerce and religion shall be finally annihilated at the outpouring of the final seventh bowl judgment(Rev.16:17-19:21).
(j) Babylon In The Last Days
As we have pointed out, Babylon is not just a city, it is a global ideal that began in the Garden of Eden when Adam rebelled against God. After the flood, Nimrod built a city and a tower to reach up to heaven. It was called the Tower of Heaven and Earth, Etemenanki. It was the symbol of man’s rebellion against God. In it was encapsulated the symbol of man’s rebellion against God. There, the religion of mother-child worship was born. There also began false human government by Nimrod. Region is also associated with buying and selling. The sole aim is for man to live his life independently from God. For this to happen, the family fabric must be destroyed through humanistic education based on atheism and evolution.
In the last days, Babylon must be rebuilt as city in order for it to be destroyed as God spoke through the prophet Isaiah like Sodom and Gomorrah(Isa.13:19). The foundation has been laid by Saddam Hussein. He reconstructed the palace of Nebuchadnezzar and the Ishtar Gate. Babylon will once again become the religious and commercial capital of the world. All religions will be unified and will be headquartered in Babylon. Of late, the unity of religions’ document was signed. This will eventuate in one-world religion which the antiChrist and the false prophet shall push. Those who refuse to comply will be economically boycotted initially before being hounded and ferreted out to be massacred on failure to recant.
Atheism and humanistic evolution will form the bedrock of education in the last days. The Big Brother will take over education completely. Parents will only have their wards registered in government schools only if they are chipped and branded as the government decrees. Believers who refuse to comply with the Big Brother shall be economically boycotted. To survive, believers must have to learn to homeschool their wards. We have done very well in establishing Christian schools. In the future these Christian Schools will be deregistered because of failure to meet up with governmental requirements which would inevitably lead to compromise of our faith in Christ. When we are blackballed out of business or economically boycotted, we have to develop our own legal tender with which to trade amongst ourselves.
(k) The Final Destruction Of Babylon
Babylon both as a city and center of commerce and religion will finally be destroyed during the outpouring of the final seventh bowl judgment. First, the city will be destroyed with its impenitent inhabitants and its wares. The kings of the nations and the merchants of its wares shall weil for it. The destruction of Babylon shall begin when it shall be assaulted by the Medes. The Medes who are the Kurdish people of the day shall be the first to attack Babylon before it will be finally annihilated by the ten kings of the ten nation confederation of the 8th And Final Beast Empire of Satan(Isa.13:17-22). In the 1980s, Saddam Hussein killed their women and children with poison gas. ISIS targets the Kurds for annihilation particularly the Yazidis. Fueled by these grievances and further atrocities that will be committed against them by the Iraqis, they shall take out their vengeance against Babylon when the opportunity presents itself to them in the final bowl judgment. Interestingly, the destruction of Babylon shall be carried by the allies of the antiMessiah, the Kurds, and the armies of the ten kings of the Eighth And Final Beast Empire. God shall put it in their hearts to do so. “And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.”(Revelation 17:16-18 ).
Babylon is the mother of harlots and abominations of the Earth. It is the Great whore that sits on the scarlet colored Beast with seven heads and ten horns. The seven heads are the seven Beasts Empires which Satan has used to oppresss the Jewish peoples and the saints of the Most High. The ten horns are the ten kings of the Eighth And Final Beast Empire which Satan will use to oppress the Jewish people and the saints in latter days.
After the Armageddon Campaign, the antiChrist and the False prophet, the first and second Beast, shall be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone. Everyone with the mark of the Beast will be executed by Christ and the hosts of heaven. Satan himsel shall be incarcerated in the bottomless pit for a thousand years(Rev.20:1-3). He shall be paroled for a season at the expiry of the Millennium. He shall lead another rebellion against God with the descendants and followers of Gog and Magog. God has had enough. Fire shall come down from Heaven, and they shall be consumed in the heavenly conflagration. Satan himself shall be incarcerated in the Lake of Fire and brimstone where the first and second beast had been for a thousand years previously(Rev.20:7-10).
