God’s word is unchanging:

Jesus answered them, "Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed." (John 8:34-36) (KJV)

"Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned." (John 15:4-6) (KJV)

Yes Jesus warned His disciples (Christian, not non-Christians). He who who healed the sick, cast out demons and died on the cross for all men is the Judgmental Jesus who is coming as a Judge"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. (Revelation 19:11) (KJV) This is something that many men forget that God judges people, even His own people in the current time of life. Yes, "The LORD will judge His people." It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

"For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. (Hebrews 10:26-31) (KJV)

I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. Jude 1:5 (KJV)

:: GREETINGS to all and the newcomers to this list. We'd like to introduce ourselves. George and Rita Williams, who founded this ministry, were Mormons (Temple Mormons part of the time) for 20 years. We prayed to God in 1992 to allow us to do a ministry speaking out against Scientology. Six months later God led us to the truth: out of the cult of Mormonism. We did not know at the time we were in a cult. No-one had witnessed to us in 20 years.
The Holy Spirit brought us to information about all the cults and the present development of the New World Order. We began bringing our research to you. Because all the research was already done, we decided to build a library within Cephas Ministry.
We are fundamental Bible students and have left all worldly organizations.
The focus of these newsletters is to prove why we had to leave the world system. We are called 'Watchmen on the Wall' which God always had during the Old / New Testament Times.
To understand what is happening, one has to know the Bible to compare notes.
The first section is about the church. The news about churches is unedited unless indicated by Ednotes. The church as we knew it, is undergoing disintegration. This began on a fast track in the early nineteen sixties when the Catholic Church produced liberal Vatican II to replace Vatican I.
The trend since then has been ecumenical which is truly what the word 'Catholicism' means: a universal religion all inclusive and multicultural. The Bible calls for a final church which doesn't resemble what Jesus taught. The Word of God has undergone many changes to fit the present mode. The Bible calls for a falling away from the truth before Jesus comes back for His Bride, the true believers called 'Ekklesia.' Our newsletters prove this fact and prove that the Bible is true from beginning to end.
The second section is about globalism where we bring your attention to the social, political and global trend to prove that we are moving to closure of the times of the Gentiles.
The third section compliments End Time teachings with what is happening in Israel. We describe and watch for signs of the coming Tribulation to confirm that we are moving into that space and time.
Watchmen on the wall do not solicit memberships. We have an email group that gets information when we upload new information and a newsletter whenever it is possible time wise. We love the Lord with all our hearts and minds and we love all people God has created but especially those who love our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Our Statement of Faith is at http://www.cephasministry.com/statement_of_faith.html
 
::We believe every word in the KJV Bible and believe it is the Word of God and that Jesus is the Christ, God Himself, who spilled His blood on the cross for our sins and rose again to prepare a place for those who accept 'His' righteousness as their righteousness. They are those who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, Jews first and then Gentiles. We expect to be raptured in a pretribulation Rapture to live with God the Father, God His Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit, who are ONE GOD in three persons, forever.
We pray the Lord will bless you with a thirst for truth and a desire to serve Him exclusively, in Christ Jesus, Nicholas A. Stivers, NicholasScrolls and Rita Williams, Cephas Ministry / Cephas Library.

JOHN PAUL ADDS 30 NEW PRINCES TO COLLEGE OF CARDINALS
The Tampa Tribune, October 22, 2003. During the past week, as scores of cardinals descended on Vatican City to celebrate his 25th anniversary as pope and watch their ranks expand, the dynamics that could determine the next pope came into sharper focus.
Those factors range from the philosophical to the practical and go well beyond divine inspiration, even though cardinals often express confidence that the Holy Spirit will guide them to their choice.
``It's not that he's sitting on the shoulder of every cardinal to blow in his ear what to do,'' said Cardinal Godfried Danneels of Belgium, who is often mentioned as a possible candidate for pope. ``That's for children."

ARCHBISHOP ELEVATED TO CARDINAL
The archbishop will be among 31 new cardinals
Scottish archbishop Keith O'Brien has been declared a cardinal by the Pope at a ceremony in Rome.
Cardinal O' Brien was one of 31 new appointments to the College of Cardinals whose ultimate responsibility is to appoint a successor to Pope John Paul II.

'Important recognition'
The ceremony took place on the steps of St Peter's Basilica in the Vatican.
Speaking in Rome, before the ceremony, Cardinal O'Brien said: "I think it is vitally important for every Scots person that Scotland is represented at the highest level in the church's deliberations.
"And I think that members of other denominations and some people of no faith at all appreciate that as well.
"It says something for our country, and for the church in our country, that Pope John Paul II and his advisers decided that again there should be a cardinal in Scotland."
The event will take place at St Peter's Basilica
News of the Pope's intention to elevate the archbishop of St Andrews and Edinburgh to the position has thrust him into the media spotlight in Scotland in recent weeks.
At a press conference in Rome on Monday, he denied reports he had called for the church to debate celibacy, contraception and homosexuality at a mass in Edinburgh, just days after his appointment was announced. He then pledged his allegiance to the Pope.

ANNOUNCEMENT - NON FICTION BOOK: 'DAYS OF ELIJAH'
The book is free online by clicking on the following link:
http://www.elizaearsman-days-of-elijah.net/Days%20of%20Elijah%20by%20Eliza%20Earsman1.htm
By Eliza Earsman . Disturbing and true, the book details of Masonic malice and vindictiveness to try to silence this author allow the reader to know why in what differentiates this powerful book and makes it unique.
Keith O'Brien of Edinburgh was created Cardinal by the very failing in health Pope John Paul II on 21 October 2003. The 65 years old O'Brien elevated to College of Cardinals during open-air mass on steps of Vatican Basilica. 2 November 2003 appears on Scottish Television giving bookmaker's odds re - prearranged - election as Pope. Masonic agenda already known - also the person. Awareness required as is eventual film production. The book should have gone to print for release in August 2003. On 24 July, 2003, Tom Reilly, Managing Director of Trafford Publishers, European office, Drogheda, Ireland, cancelled publication using an Agreement Clause which is not valid i.e. Agreement Clause 14 (1). He is wrong. He says "I am not actually obliged to give a reason." As far as I know, he does not actually have a reason! On 3 September 2003 Mr Reilly involved local Garda (police) in Ireland. As a result, enquiries are continuing into his public and personal affairs. As a result, this manuscript will now go public via the World Wide Web. Copyright R. Whitelaw August 2003. All rights reserved.
Events worldwide have overtaken us and of necessity, 'Days of Elijah' has to be in the global domain. In no way do I consider this presentation of 'Days of Elijah' to be the final one. From its British base of crime ridden Freemasonry the opposition has been fierce and funding for professional editorial help has been and remains at zero. As a result, the reader is allowed to acknowledge personal editorial inadequacies. The inadequacy does not lie in the content or the context. At the hands of the venomous few and the deliberate opposition of their Masonic Father much delay has been caused and many lives have been lost. With blood on their hands, those responsible for closed doors and mucky minds can at no time be allowed to plead ignorance or innocence. It is fair to say that this work is not going to be a reference for the grey British systems, or their long history of detrimental activities the details of which have found their way into the global domain.
May their need for account be known. I am required to do whatever is legally necessary to ensure the success of this book and eventual film content and thereby to leave the way clear for more of the work determined by Almighty God. Travelling to the U.S.A., Canada, Israel, Ireland, Jordan, Spain, Central and Eastern Europe I have, by not always conventional but by always honest means, raised public and international awareness of ‘Days of Elijah'.
This book details how. More so this book details why’. It is fact that the Christian, Jewish and Muslim communities are of necessity gaining a growing awareness of this work and have been able to find, to date, no cause for complaint re the work of this person.

POSTMODERNISM, HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT IT IS?
So what is postmodernism, and how has it, and how will it, affect our lives, our culture and our churches? These questions, and the methods we must use to confront postmodernity will be the subject of our next several papers...
"Postmodernity, in contrast to modernity, rejects any notion of objective truth and insists that the only absolute in the universe is that there are no absolutes. Tolerance is the supreme virtue and exclusivity the supreme vice. Truth is not grounded in reality or in any sort of authoritative ‘text,’ but is simply constructed by the mind of the individual [or socially constructed]." Groothuis elaborates, "For these postmodernist thinkers, the very idea of truth has decayed and disintegrated. It is no longer something knowable…. At the end of the day, truth is simply what we, as individuals and as communities, make it to be – and nothing more."..
At the end of 2001, just a few months after the infamous 9/11 attacks, an alarming survey was conducted by Barna that found confidence in absolute moral truth had dropped to a mere 22%. Barely one in five Americans claim to believe in absolute truth, which is amazing considering, that according to Barna’s research, one out of every three Americans claim to be an evangelical Christian.

EVANGELICAL SWAY WHITE HOUSE ON HUMANS RIGHTS ISSUES ABROAD
Washington, October 25, 2003 — Shortly after George W. Bush took office, an odd coalition came to the White House to see Karl Rove, the president's powerful political adviser, to ask that the United States intercede in the civil war in Sudan. The group included Charles W. Colson, the born-again Christian who spent seven months in jail for his role in Watergate, and David Saperstein, a Reform rabbi and a longtime lobbyist for liberal causes in Washington.
The two-decades-long war in Sudan was not a front-burner problem for the new administration, and Mr. Rove was not a foreign policy adviser. But the religious strife between Christians and Muslims in a conflict that had killed two million people was of enormous concern to American religious groups, particularly the evangelicals who make up a major portion of President Bush's electoral base.
Mr. Rove, the participants in the meeting recalled, was unusually receptive during a nearly hour long conversation. "He made it clear how seriously the administration was going to engage on this," said Rabbi Saperstein, director of the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism.

THY WILL BE DONE
The Rockefeller-led effort to conquer the Amazon and exploit its natural riches had been made possible in no small measure by SIL's missionary activities. Colby and Dennett found a historic parallel in John D. Rockefeller, Sr.'s support for Christian missionaries in the American west, who were compiling extremely useful information on Native American communities, which were potential sources of opposition to the entrance of Standard Oil into their lands.' As a bonus, the evangelization process weakened the American Indians' social structure and so undermined their resolve to fight for their rights. The authors quote Baptist reverend Frederick Gates, who for many years was John D. Rockefeller Sr.'s right-hand man, as saying that "We are only in the very dawn of commerce, and we owe that dawn to the channels opened up by Christian missionaries.... The effect of the missionary enterprise of the English speaking peoples will be to bring them the peaceful conquest of the world."
On the other hand, it is also true that SIL's mission was greatly helped by the Rockefellers and the industrial development process that they were such an important part of. SIL's missionaries believe that when the last tribe in the jungles is evangelized, the Second Coming of the Lord will take place; so for them the race to develop the Amazon basin's natural resources is only a means to an end. In practice, this symbiotic relationship between commercial exploitation and Christian fundamentalism was a match made in hell that spelled doom for native peoples and the rainforests they inhabited.

AWAKENING OF A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS
By Diane Wilson - My book is not a doctrinal treatise about Jehovah's Witnesses; instead, it is an issues-oriented human interest story that reveals the inside story of twenty-five years of my adult life in this Christian sect. It deals with many women's issues as seen through the colored lens of the Watchtower Society. It spells out my vulnerability to the enticements that the Witnesses use, the many abuses I suffered while I was in the group, the horrendous psychological struggles I experienced while trying to escape their mind-control methods and induced phobias, and how a psychologist helped me to finally succeed in breaking free from their grasp. I believe you will find it valuable. See detailed report about the book:

THOUGHTS OF MAN MUST BE TRANSFORMED TO CAUSE A PARADIGM SHIFT
Modern mystical movements are convinced that if a one world government and a one world religion are to see fruition, then the thoughts of man must be transformed. This "paradigm shift" is a change in consciousness, a change in the way man perceives, thinks, and conceives values. It is a spiritual, cultural, global and personal change. Man's view of life, God, and himself, is modified and altered according to the new view of reality. Willis Harman, president of Institute of Noetic Sciences says, "By deliberately changing the internal image of reality, people can change the world. I agree the world will change, but for the worse. Reality, for the apostate age ahead is known only by the psychic subconscious mind while the conscious mind is blind in itself to the real world. This new reality is based upon the belief that all is consciousness and this consciousness is omnipotent, creator, love, ultimate reality, and the subconscious mind of man.
HAVE YOU CLIMBED THE COSMIC TREE OF IMAGINATION? MYSTICAL SALVATION:
Can man reshape his world in an effort to rescue the cosmos from destruction and divert the judgment of God? Ecological programs are good. Peace is needed. Education is a necessity. A transformation is needed for all mankind and this transformation must occur within man, but can the judgment of God be diverted by such a transformation? Occultist Elizabeth Clare Prophet doesn't believe in a personal God or the judgment of God; but she believes that if a man summons the mighty I Am Presence that is within, he would be able to turn back personal and planetary Karma. (5) But what she fails to admit is that the mighty I Am Presence is not self but the God of the Bible.
Transformation Through Ecumenicalism
Does World peace hinge upon the fulfillment of a one-world religion? Is ecumenicalism a good thing? All faiths today have been plunged into one melting pot in the hope that a one - world religion will arise to the surface. Man has found what he believes to be the answer to a one-world religion.

New York (ENI). US federal funds are being made available to help preserve historic churches and other places of worship - a reversal of existing policy based on a reading of the US constitution's separation of church and state.

THE SWORD OF THE PROPHET
Our political leaders tell us that Muslims are a peace-loving and hospitable people. We are admonished not to condemn Islam because of the acts of a tiny and fanatical minority. As a people, we are conditioned to be fair-minded and tolerant. We pride ourselves on our acceptance of diversity and the reality of a multicultural society. Many of us have children or grandchildren who go to school with Muslim children. This does not intimidate us; on the contrary, many of us look upon it as the way of the future. Yet, at the same time, we are uneasy.
We are uneasy because of an intuitive sense that many of the adherents of this religion seem out of step with the modern world. The beheading of apostates, the chopping-off of the hands and feet of convicted criminals, the stoning to death of women accused of adultery, including those who have been raped—such barbaric practices disturb us. When a Muslim cleric broadcasts a television message to Palestinians, exhorting them to martyr themselves for Allah’s sake and urging them to annihilate Jews, we are rightly concerned. These acts seem more indicative of a seriously dysfunctional society than the characteristics of a benevolent and merciful religion.

Williams has previously expressed sympathy with homosexual relationships, but as leader of the Anglican Communion he has said he would uphold the decision of the 1998 Lambeth Conference of the world's Anglican bishops, which rejected "homosexual practice" as being "incompatible with Scripture".

AN EMAIL FROM A FORMER MASON:
1.13.03 - I have not always been on the godly path I know quite a bit about the freemasonry. I have renounced it but I use to follow the path of ex-freemasonry member by the name of Aleister Crowley. Who had an assistant by the name of Anton Levay who started the Church of Satan. The majority of these rituals are taken out of the freemasonry including the Black Mass which actually originated from the catholic church. What bothers me even more go into a local church and see how many cars have a freemasonry license plate or shake hands with a church member and see the freemasonry ring on their hand. These are almost always the higher up individuals in the church.What about are president George W. Bush who belonged to a Freemasonry organization at Yale called Skull and Bones. Which his father was also a member. These faith healers on TBN lift this man up to Godly standards. Which sickens me even more is the Benny Hinn story that Dateline done. The United States government was established on false pretenses buy these Masons. Even including our first president George Washington who was a 33rd degree mason.
TBN stated that a "new age" has just begun - everything the "devil stole from us will all come back to us now" Does that sound familiar? Dateline Special on Benny Hinn has resulted in a 30% drop in income that means many millions of dollars. Hinn in the last few days is begging, pleading almost groveling asking people to please send money in - he has serious bags under his eyes and the enthusiasm and lightness is all gone. There is a real change that is noticeable - I wonder if it is signaling a real crisis in the organization - it may very well be - The LA Times is planning an expose' on Hinn and Crouch. Hinn and Crouch are under serious fire. [ Email ]

MEL GIBSON'S JESUS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
Star Jim Caviezel was hit once during production of the controversial film.
AP - Mel Gibson, right, directs Jim Caviezel in 'The Passion of Christ.' Was God trying to tell Mel Gibson something? During production of his controversial film "The Passion of Christ," the actor he cast as Jesus was struck by lightning, Variety reports. Not only was Jim Caviezel hit, but assistant director Jan Michelini was struck twice. In one instance, Caviezel and Michelini were together under the latter's umbrella when they were zapped. "I'm about a hundred feet away from them, when I glance over and see lightning coming out of Caviezel's ears. Both Caviezel and Michelini got struck," producer Steve McEveety said. "The main bolt hit Caviezel and one of its forks hit Michelini's umbrella." Months earlier, Michelini had also been hit while carrying an umbrella, Variety reports. Neither man was hurt in the incidents.
Directed and financed by Gibson, "Passion" has stirred controversy for months. Christian leaders and conservative pundits who've attended invitation-only screenings have called the movie a masterpiece and praised its fidelity to the Gospels, while such Jewish organizations as the Anti-Defamation League have expressed fears that the movie blames the Jews for Christ's execution and will spark anti-Semitic violence. Gibson has had difficulty finding a U.S. distributor, but on Thursday, he confirmed what had been rumored for a week: that the film would be released in America on Ash Wednesday (Feb. 25) by indie studio Newmarket. The terms of the deal grant limited rights to Newmarket, the distributor behind such indie successes as "Memento" and "Whale Rider," to handle the booking and promotion of "Passion" in return for a percentage of the gross. Newmarket partner and co-founder William Tyrer told the New York Times his company was "uniquely qualified to carefully handle" the movie's marketing challenges, adding: "We wouldn't be supporting it if it was anti-Semitic."

IS PRINCE CHARLES ABOUT TO INCREASE HIS POPULARITY?
Yahoo News, 11/7/2003. - "LONDON - Is Prince Charles about to increase his popularity by being "touted" as a lifelong gay? Listen to the stories: Prince Charles says he didn't do it — though few Britons knew exactly what it was he didn't do. Still, newspapers and airwaves Friday hummed with hints and repeated denials. Charles took the highly unusual step Thursday of issuing a statement naming himself as the senior royal at the center of unreported but persistent rumors and denying that the alleged incident ever took place ... Some observers said that by confronting the gossip, Charles has given it a much wider audience."
The incident in question is an alleged homosexual relationship between Prince Charles and his aide, Michael Fawcett. For years, rumors have swirled around Charles that he loved boys and men as much as he loved women. However, the power of the British Crown has been sufficiently strong as to quash such stories from ever successfully going public. http://www.cuttingedge.org/newsletters/

SUPREME COURT: GAY SEX NOT ADULTERY
The New Hampshire Supreme Court took over moral standards from the Bible by announcing that a married woman who has sex with a Lesbian lover has not committed adultery! We are at the point of being the kind of Sodom that will love Antichrist!
WNNE31, November 7, 2003. - "CONCORD, N.H. -- If a married woman has sex with another woman, is that adultery? The New Hampshire Supreme Court says no."
If ever you needed proof that our society has become like Sodom, this story should convince you! The fascination of the people in Western Society for Gay - Lesbian issues has become so strong and so pronounced that we regularly devote a section for such articles in our Daily News Updates. http://www.cuttingedge.org/newsletters

A UNIQUE HEXAGRAM FORMED IN THE HEAVENS
NEWS BRIEF:"The New Fatima", By Frater R.S., Monday, 13 October 2003 - Today, occultists and New Agers are mightily excited because a unique hexagram will be formed in the heavens! - On November 8th, 2003, the planets Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, The Sun, The Moon, and the asteroid Chiron will all align to form a huge Hexagram in the heavens. The uniqueness and power of this alignment has Astrologers all over the world lining up to expound upon its significance ... little is being said on the Hermetic or 'Magickal' significance of a hexagram being formed by the planets ... In the Western Esoteric system, which is otherwise known as 'Practical Qabalah' or Ritual Magick, the Hexagram or six-pointed star with its interlaced equilateral triangles is a symbol that expresses the concept of 'As Above, So Below' ... the hexagram is also a representation among Ritual Magicians for the completion of 'The Great Work.'. We have seen an exceptional number of unique heavenly signs in the heavens this year: Mars coming closer to Earth than ever, a unique blood-red moon eclipse in May, an unusual eclipse of the Sun in late May. Now, in addition to this "hexagram" in the heavens on 11/8, November 23 also will bring a total solar eclipse, although seeing it will require a bit of travel. It will be visible only in Antarctica. http://www.cuttingedge.org/newsletters/

THE MOONIES
11/13/2003
From: xxx@harvestchristianfellowship.org
To: r421@aol.com
Thank you for the information on your web-site. A lady came to me today selling cards to raise funds for “missionary” work in America. I wrote her a check and wrote down the name of her organization since I had never heard of it. After she left I got on the internet to do some research. When I found out what I had done I got up, found her, and asked for my check back. She gave me back the money and I was able to talk with her about her beliefs. She said that she believes that Rev. Moon is the 2nd Messiah. I couldn’t believe it.
Unfortunately, I was unprepared and unable to refute her beliefs. However, the information on your website has been helpful and I will be more prepared if the situation presents itself again.
Thanks again,
C.

U.S. NEW NICKEL HAS A MASONIC "CLASPED HANDS" SYMBOL!
USA TODAY, 11/6/03. - "Put another nickel design in — two, actually", By Barbara Hagenbaugh - WASHINGTON — Coin collectors, get ready for more change. Drawing on the enormous popularity of the state quarter program, the U.S. Mint on Thursday unveiled two new nickels it hopes will also lure collectors ... The nickels, which mark the 200th anniversaries of the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis & Clark expedition, are the first redesign of the 5-cent piece in 65 years."
As you can see by comparing these two pictures, this new design is a Masonic "clasped hands" symbol. It is NOT a Masonic handshake, which focuses on one of the knuckles of each hand. This is a "clasped hands". Listen:
"While we are on the subject of Masonry, there is another Masonic symbol called the 'clasped hands' ... This emblem was also a Pythagorean symbol. Pythagoras was a Magician. Many Masonic sources reveal that the clasped hands are a 'symbol of fidelity', but they don't stop with that explanation. Albert G. Mickey, 33° Mason, confesses: 'The right hand has in all ages been deemed an emblem of fidelity and our ancient brethren worshiped Deity under the name of FIDES or Fidelity, which was sometimes represented by TWO RIGHT HANDS JOINED, and something by two human figures, holding each other by the right hands .... 'Numa was the first who erected an altar to FIDES, under which the GODDESS OF OATHS and honesty was worshiped. Obligations taken in her name were considered as more inviolable than others." ["Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated", by Dr. Cathy Burns, p. 239; Emphasis was in the original]

Apostasy Revealed by Nicholas A. Stivers
A non-fiction, highly spiritual work
$11.95 Trade paperback plus postage
Jesus' disciples were of common Hebrew stock. They became Apostles through their tenacity and were firm in their commitment. They developed groups of believers called churches (gatherings). They were a minority then as God's appointed ones are today, not following mainstream ideals, but clinging steadfastly to Christ's teachings and enduring persecution for their unwavering faith. The rest of the world at that time was as deceived and enslaved as the world is today. Their world suffered under siege by secular powers, just as our world today is at the mercy of the same models of Government.
Sadly, the many-divided houses of God promote their own brand of elitism and partiality. Many Christian authorities are largely tolerant of sensual deviance and abhorrent authority. Religion has (in part) lost its zeal because the message has been so watered down that it fails to keep the believers faithful. Today, hypocrisy is an epidemic. So many are backsliding and falling into pits. The message herein brings you back to the fundamental "Gospel of Christ crucified" in a contemporary context. This book is for those who have been thirsting and hungering for the righteousness of God. What many people need is encouragement to follow Jesus' example.Take courage now and share the experience of salvation and fresh revelation with a brother in Christ. Highly recommended by Cephas Ministry

SECRETS OF THE BUSHONIAN MARKET CONSPIRACY
October 20, 2003 - News that threatens to expose the Scourge of Bushonomics (and the real agenda of the Bush Cabal and where they are taking this nation) is now roiling the markets. Here are some examples…

ALL AMERICANS HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE STUPID
Where Else Are You Going to Hear the Truth? October 13, 2003 - It was announced by the chairman of EDS that the White House has given EDS a “good corporate citizen award” for its plan to export substantially all of its operations to India and China. EDS, a US government information technology (IT) contractor, has also announced that the first phase of this program has been undertaken, and it will entail the transfer of 3,500 jobs to India. Inevitably, when the process is complete, EDS will be left with US operations, consisting only of its worldwide corporate headquarters staff, its technical support staff, and its worldwide sales staff. All other functions and production will be exported to India and China. That’s what the Bush Cabal considers a “good corporate citizen.”

THE FINAL BATTLE: BUSHONOMICS VS. THE WORLD
October 6, 2003 - The Bush hacks are losing control of the Ambassador Wilson leak story and the connection to Karl Rove. Even when Dan Burton, who professes not to be a part of the Bush Cabal, was interviewed, he came to Bush’s defense. Burton attempted to discredit Wilson by saying that Wilson is a notorious Democrat who served in the Clinton Regime and he made these allegations because he’s a Democrat. Brian Jennings on MSNBC confronted Burton on the air and reminded him that Wilson has always been considered apolitical and in fact was an ambassador in the Bush I Regime and had even received a letter of commendation signed by George Bush Sr. in which he publicly sang his praises. Burton said that was just politics, and Jennings asked him. Congressman, isn’t that what you’re doing here. And Burton became befuddled right on the air. Furthermore you see that CNN and MSNBC are saying that Karl Rove has done this before. They mentioned the fact that Rove held the same position he now holds during the Bush I Regime: senior political advisor and liaison to the RNC. It’s the exact same position.

IS AMERICA BEYOND THE POINT OF NO RETURN?
Try Pizza and Beer at the Local CILF. September 29, 2003 - The recent WSJ/ NBC poll reported that overall Bushonian support has slipped below 50% for the first time since the Bush Cheney Regime was selected. Interestingly enough, they reported in a comparison poll (the so-called heads up comparison poll) that Bush-Cheney support showed 42% vs. “any generic unnamed” Democrat at 40%. In other words, Bush is only 2% ahead of a generic unnamed Democrat and six out of the ten declared Democrats are between 3% and 10% ahead of him, Wesley Clark having the most. The reason for these numbers is that 83% of the respondents who say they’re voting for a Democrat don’t say they’re voting for a Democrat but they’re voting against a Bush. This is (and should be) encouraging to the Democrats because the only way a Democrat could win is if there’s a big enough anti-Bush vote. Not a pro-Democrat vote, but an anti Bush vote. There has to be a generalized backlash against Bush.

BUILDING THE NEW AMERICAN EMPIRE:
Life in a Post Patriot II Society (Part III) - September 22, 2003 - So what else can we expect? To continue with the Patriot II agenda of the Bush Cabal, there are two other powers, which will be given to law enforcement. For the first time, they will have the ability to issue so-called “secret subpoenas” without going before a grand jury. The grand jury process will be bypassed. In addition, the subpoenas do not have to be disclosed to the court or to the public

BUILDING THE NEW AMERICAN EMPIRE:
More Future Shocks (Part II) - September 15, 2003 - The recent anomalies in the market would lead us to believe that Bushonomics is moving the nation to economic collapse. Just look at the Department of Treasury study done under Secretary Paul O’Neill’s tutelage, which the Bush Cheney Regime attempted to suppress. When the report finally came out earlier this year, it created a stink for about three days. Then the Bush administration said it wasn’t authorized, and then they had to back away because it was authorized. This, of course, is the report, which says that marginal federal income tax brackets will need to rise to 65% in the coming years to finance the debt being created by Bushonian policies in the present. And there will not be sufficient liquidity after the year 2009 to finance Bushonian budget deficits.

HOC EST IMPERIUM AMERICANUM:
The Building of the New American Empire Continues Apace - September 8, 2003 - You may have heard about the new Patriot II Act. You should be very, very concerned. Why? Because if this bill passes intact, it will give George Bush the power of Caesar -- not just the defacto power of Caesar, as he has now – but the actual power of Caesar.

THE AMBASSADOR WILSON AFFAIR:
The End of Karl Rove – And George Bush? September 2, 2003 - This is the hottest and most explosive story behind the scenes in Washington -- in terms of how it could affect the Bush administration.

WILL THE REAL CHEMICAL ALI PLEASE STAND UP
Or Just Please Stay Dead? The Curious Case of Ambassador Joseph Wilson August 25, 2003 - When will the Bush Cabal’s spin-lies, distractions and rumors ever stop? The latest rumors about Osama bin Laden being supposedly captured were released on Friday August 22 – just before the market closed. This was a bid to keep the Dow above 9400 and the SPX above 1000 because they knew that there were big sell orders on the close. This was even mentioned on FNN. Did it work? Yes, just barely, but it worked. Then after the close nothing was said. Then we discover on the “news alert” that it wasn’t “Osama bin Laden.” It was “Chemical Ali.” who had been “captured.” In a different country. That’s the first chemical anything the US has ever found in Iraq .

BUSHONOMICS 303:
Turning Confusion into Clarity - aUGUST 18, 2003 - When I'm introduced on radio shows, I am often asked by Republican call-ins, after they harangue and call me names, why I say, “Greetings to the Citizens of the New American Empire.” Invariably the first caller asks, “Why do I use the word ‘empire’? Aren’t we after all still a democracy?” the naïve little right-wing Bush voter says. Then I respond by saying that I am simply quoting from Donald Rumsfeld who as you may or may not have noticed, in recent months, when asked the question “What is the real agenda of the Bush Cheney Regime?” has referred all questions to the website of the Project for The New American Century (newamericancentury.org). This foundation has as its members -- Herren Rumsfeld, Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Kissinger, Armitage, etc. -- veritably the entire Bushonian Cabal.

LYING WITH NUMBERS
How the Financial Media Gets Fresh Sucker Buyers Daily (The Bullish Market News Conspiracy - Part 2) - August 11, 2003 - On radio shows, I am often asked, “How do we tell the American people?” And therein lies the great obstacle in telling the truth -- anyone who tells the truth is going to be instantly labeled a “conspiracy theorist.” The reason people get that label is because 90% of the American people don’t understand what they’re saying. If the American people don’t understand it, they instantly dismiss it as being “untrue.” And therein lies another great conspiracy of government. This is simply the conflict of “belief systems” wherein our government, our educational system and everything that makes this society work tells you that if you don’t understand it, then its no good, get rid of it – or it tells you “Don’t worry. You don’t have to understand it.” Leave it to Washington. We understand it. You don’t have to . You just stick to your mind numbing sitcoms, fake “reality” shows and six packs of Bud and keep sending in your checks to your broker every month for your IRA/ 401K contribution.. And don’t wory about it. But to continue with Part 2 of the Bushonian Bullish Market News Conspiracy…

THE BULLISH MARKET "NEWS" CONSPIRACY
When Will It Fall Apart? (Part 1) - August 4, 2003 - Is the Bush Cabal manipulating the stock equity markets through “news” press releases? Yes, and the evidence is quite clear. They have consistently stated that “we’ve captured and killed the sons” and "we're getting close to Saddam." They also did the same thing with Osama bin Laden, if you recall. They said we know where he is and we’re going to get him – and then the market rallied 130 points when it was about ready to break its 50-day moving average. Also the “terrorist alerts” have been used consistently to manipulate the markets. When the market has gotten a little frothy and they were concerned about a sharp pullback -- suddenly the terrorist alert would be raised to take a little froth out of the market – to prevent a sharper pullback.

BUSH FAMILY BUSINESS COMMITTING SCAMS ON OPM AND THE NEW AMERICAN CAESARISM.
July 28, 2003 - Now even the Bush Cabal is confused, especially my old Republican Cohorts in Crime. The Bush Regime’s intentions have even confused Bushonian Republican Loyalists. When you walk around the Beltway, half of them have grown toothbrush mustaches -- and the other half are wearing togas. Nobody knows what the ..they’re doing. Some guys are practicing “Heil Hitler” and others are practicing “Hail Caesar.”
And so it happened that the House voted 400-21 to block the FCC’s decision to allow media companies to expand ownership from 35% to 45% of the market. The White House even held an emergency political session about it. It’s very unusual. The White House has announced that they will veto the bill. This has been portrayed in media as “White House advisors were split,” but in the last analysis the President made the decision -- due to his close personal political and financial connections to Clear Channel Communications to veto the bill. And this is the inside story of the Clear Channel Scam…

HOW BUSHONOMICS WORKS LIKE A GIANT PROTECTION RACKET
July 21, 2003 - Our readers should be warned about an amendment that Congressman Richard Baker, Republican from Louisiana and a member of the Bush faction in the House, has tacked onto the so-called Securities Fraud Deterrence Act. ("Securities Fraud Deterrence" -- if that ain’t a Bushonian Oxymoron) This amendment (8b) is intended to dilute the authority of state attorney generals’ offices and state security regulators in bringing legal actions against the large investment houses for fraud. The Baker bill will transfer much of the power of state regulators (who have been very aggressive in going after corporate fraud) to the SEC. The rationale is the same old Bushonian charade -- for the sake of market stability, liquidity and investor confidence.

BUSH LIES AND LIES, AMERICA KEEPS YAWNING
July 14, 2003 - The Bush Cabal’s Lie Coordination Bureau (LCB) got it all mixed up this week, when the Bush administration attempted to retract its allegations that Iraq was trying to buy uranium from African countries. They were forced to retract because Bush had, of course, gone to Africa and he was being laughed at by many of the African leaders he had accused. As one of the African presidents quoted on BBC said, we don’t even produce any uranium. It all started when outgoing White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said that the administration is withdrawing this allegation. Then Rumsfeld said the same thing on Wednesday, July 9, in Congressional testimony and that caught people off guard because the Fleischer comment had not been widely disseminated. Fleischer had intimated that the White House would set upon a plan to gradually retract all of the allegations it made against Iraq (as a reason to go in there) because none of them were true.

DIVIDED-AND-CONQUERED AMERIKA:
Where the Gauleiters Meet the Commissars (The 4th of July Special Report)
June 30, 2003 - The Supreme Court has made a ruling to force public libraries to install a filter so that library patrons could not access any pornographic websites. The wording of the ruling, however, was such that it would allow the executive branch to effectively block all other types of websites (besides pornographic websites) and to monitor citizens pursuant to a selected list of sites. These websites, as the National Library Association pointed out, would allow the Department of Justice to monitor “politically sensitive” news and information websites, which are critical of the Bush Regime or which would attempt to expose the truth about Bushonian Cabalists. This is the real intent of the Department of Justice.

THE SPECULATIVE BUBBLE IN THE US HOUSING AND STOCK MARKETS:
When Will It Pop? June 23, 2003 - The US housing market has now reached the absolutely classic definition of a speculative bubble in an asset class.

EXCLUSIVE: THE PENTAGON WISTLEBLOWER'S STORY - PART 2
June 16, 2003 - The Department of Defense whistleblower continues with her information about the NASA Columbia Disaster Cover-up and more details on the Chandra Levy Murder Cover-up story.

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: PENTAGON WHISTLEBLOWER EXPOSES DARK SECRETS OF IRAQI WAR - PART 1
June 9, 2003 In a World News Exclusive, Al Martin Raw.Com confirms asset seizures from US-Occupied Iraq by Bushonian minions in the CIA and the US Defense Department. The Pentagon whistleblower, concerned for her safety, has decided to tell her story about the latest CIA/ DoD fiasco. This is her story. Be warned – it sounds like a 21st Century version of Treasure Island meets Ali Baba and the Bushonian Thieves. And it’s all true…

THE WMD SCAM, THE $2 BILLION CASH SCAM, AND THE $44 TRILLION SHORTFALL June 2, 2003 - Sources from the Department of Defense report that the covert-ops team sent to Iraq to plant the “Weapons of Mass Destruction” in order to justify the US War on Iraq have been killed by “friendly fire” – unfortunately before they could tell anyone where they hid the cache of WMD’s. Now the plan for a US Army detachment of Gomer and Goober to “find” the WMD’s has been completely derailed -- as in “Shazam! You know those weapons of mass destruction you keep talking about? Well, Sergeant, I think I done found ‘em.”

BUSHONOMICS ROILS THE MARKETS:
Sucker Buying, Gold, and the Threat of the Truth - May 27, 2003 - The latest scuttlebutt in Washington is that the time of the Silent Coup by the Bushonian Cabal has begun.

SEDITION & TREASON IN THE US IMPERIAL STATE
May 19, 2003 - The most important story last week was -- The Department of Homeland Security Pursues Seditious Democrats. The 50+ “Fugitive Democrats” were the Texas state legislators who were hiding out at the Holiday Inn in Ardmore, Oklahoma. Governor Rick Perry of Texas, an Arch Bushonian Cabalist, in fact, issued arrest warrants for them under the seditious utterance and publication acts, insofar as they were obstructing the will of the State (not the state of Texas, but the Nation State. Note the capital S.) And what’s behind this fracas? It’s a redistricting bill that’s being sponsored and pushed by Congressman Tom Delay. The Democrats are asking, and rightfully so, why is the US Congressman from Texas involved in an issue which should be a state issue? This should be decided by the Texas state legislature, not by a United States Congressman – and furthermore not by an Arch-Right-Wing Nut like Delay.

JUST ANOTHER NO-BRAINER WEEK IN THE BUSHONONIAN AGE
May 12, 2003 - There’s two types of no-brainers -- the kind of person that’s glued to the no brainer Domino Pizza commercial.(What’s better? One pizza or two?) Or you can be the kind of no-brainer who reads Al Martin Raw.com and makes money. This separates the no-brainers who survive and those no brainers who thrive. Which no-brainer would you rather be?

THE SCOURGE OF BUSHONOMICS EXPLAINED (PART 1)
May 5, 2003 - In a recent WSJ/ NBC opinion poll, only 18% of the people claim they actually understand what a budget deficit is. And out of all the respondents, only 6% understood the deleterious effects that ever-expanding budget deficits have on economic growth. (When their check bounces and they get charged twenty bucks at the bank, these people probably ask, “Hey, why am I being penalized here? This is a just a budget deficit.”) Now the Bushonian Regime is encouraging American business and industry to borrow from future revenues, and there is now a record number of companies selling on these delayed credit deals. You buy something for zero down, zero interest, no payments for a year for consumer purchases like washing machines, TVs and cars. And this is all done to maintain the phony consumption numbers. Because of this we have decided to explain once and for all the meaning of Bushonomics and the scourge it represents to the American Economy.

BUSH CABAL'S WORLD DOMINATION TOUR CONTINUES
Prozac Nation Still Sleeping - April 28, 2003 - Bushonian Regimes have traditionally used the office of the Vice President to hide mischief making. Think of the Vice President's Task Force on Drugs in 1983 formed in Miami with George Bush Sr. as its head, which acted in an illicit capacity to ensure that CIA authorized Iran-Contra related narcotics shipments were not inadvertently stopped. This tradition continues to this day. George Bush Sr. himself as Vice President was in charge of Iran-Contra operations to maintain "deniability" of then President Ronald Reagan. This is the same game that Bush and Cheney play today. Put Cheney in charge of everything that’s illegal to maintain deniability for the president. What has changed? Not much. The Republican tradition of Vice Presidents taking the fall goes back to the forgettable Spiro Agnew (or at least the Republicans hope we forgot).

FLASH UPDATE: US GOVERNMENT HIRES FORMER SOVIET SPIES
April 22, 2003 - Former KGB counter-intelligence chief, General Oleg Kalugin, confirms US agency relationship with former KGB chiefs General Yevgeny Primakov and General Aleksandr V. Karpov.

WANT YOUR CIVIL LIBERTIES BACK?
Move to US Occupied Iraq - April 21, 2003 - According to the latest reports, the benefits that Iraqi citizens will now enjoy under a US supported regime (they’re not calling it US occupation) will be much better than the disenfranchised naïve American flag wavers. General Brooks, a spokesman for CENTCOM Command, made a pronouncement reiterating the expanded First and Second Amendment privileges that Iraqi citizens will have. The would-be Iraqi leaders being groomed for the coalition they’re trying to form were being interviewed and told about all the new benefits they’re going to have. A Shiite mullah with a turban on his head heard this announcement and he says, “If that’s the case, I can’t wait to be occupied…” But what struck me funny about it is that Iraqi citizens will now have (at US taxpayers expense) universal free health care coverage and universal education up to university level; they will be entitled to financial aid for the purchases of food; utilities like water and electricity will be subsidized; and gasoline for cars will remain at 13 cents a gallon. How can you beat that?

BUSH, PROPAGANDA MINISTER O'REILLY, THE P-WORD AND THE WEINER NATION
The scourge of Bushonomics continues and the P-Word (Peace) is declared seditious in the Weiner Nation... Meanwhile, Goebbels Wannabe Bill O’Reilly of the AllSpin Zone, has publicly declared that anyone who opposes Bush Cabal policies is not only "Un American" but will be considered by him to be an "enemy of the state." In other words, it looks like O’Reilly is actively seeking the post of "Propaganda Minister" in the Bush Adminstration.
There’s a little known channel on TV called the Public Legal Issue Forum which explained what justification the Bushonian Cabal was using for this incident in Albany and the Michigan high schooler who was sent home for wearing a t-short which read International terrorist with a picture of Bush on it.
They’re getting away with it by using the now reinstituted Seditious Publications Act. I always thought that it was restricted to books, magazines and periodicals, but they’re using this act (which they have the authority to do under the Office of Homeland Security and under the USA Patriot Act) and saying that anybody who wears a t-shirt or carries a placard is "publishing," and these acts constitute "publishing" a picture, a photograph or printed statements. In other words, this falls under the Seditious Publications Act, which is meant to stop the dissemination of any materials deemed to be hostile to the security of the state. "Publication" then includes anything printed on a t-shirt or a placard or a poster.
Then they showed a several clips from Deputy Reichsfuehrer Ashcroft when he spoke a couple weeks ago (and people didn’t know what he was talking about), in which the State of Maine education superintendent leaked out a letter he received from the Office of State Security regarding high schoolers. Ashcroft said that they are acting to crack down (and he didn’t really explain what he meant) but now we’re getting a pretty good idea.
The lawyer on the show said that usually under the Seditious Publications Act the very reinstitution of the act requires consent of Congress and judicial review by the Supreme Court. Of course, under the USA Patriot Act and the vast expansion of the 1947 War Powers Act, as it relates to the expansion of presidential powers and the passage of the emergency extension of the law enforcement powers act, the president has the right (now that a state of national emergency has been declared) to simply, by edict, reinstitute the Seditious Publications act.
