ISSN 1442-8660Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
When Adam joined Eve across the time-line and the Life-line he forfeited man's dominion over Earth, empowering Satan to lawfully offer Jesus "all the kingdoms of the world" if He would pay homage (Matthew 4:8-9): such profound reverence as would make him Jesus' god. Jesus deferred to the Word, for He was the Word manifest in virgin-born flesh, but He foretold two men who would surrender their souls to Satan and be known as "sons of perdition" (Jude 1:4). One was Judas Iscariot (John 17:12; 13:27). The other will be the last pope of the Judaeo-Roman Catholic church ruling Satan's coming New World Order (Isaiah 14; Daniel 2:40-45; 7:19-28; 9:27; II Thessalonians 2:3; Revelation 17:8-11).
Scripture says, "All the world will worship Satan vicariously when he is incarnate in that man of sin, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, saying, Who is as great as the beast, and who is able to oppose him" (II Timothy 2:3-4; Revelation 13:4, 8; 17:8-11)?
How can it be that committed Christians and ministers of the Gospel will love the Lord Jesus and worship Satan vicariously?
Their love and commitment is to the storybook Jesus of their imagination; "they received the love of Christ the anointed Word." They are sincere, and if they are "saved" they will lay down their lives during the tribulation "for the testimony of Jesus Christ." But the deluded and "unsaved" majority who believe Satan's lie will be damned (II Thessalonians 2:9-12).
Many love God with all of their heart, but their knowledge of Him is intellectual: sincere philosophy and psychology without faith epitomizing the "lying spirit of strong delusion" of which Paul spoke. The Lord allowed such a lying spirit to persuade the prophets of Ahab who spoke their own thoughts to please the king, and not the mind of Christ (I Kings 22).
Please welcome our guest contributor, independent researcher and writer, Erica Carle BS. Mrs. Carle has been involved in radio and television writing and production, published several books, taught school, and as Education Editor wrote a weekly column, "Truth in Education," for the Wisconsin Report. The method of lion taming mentioned in her article is definitely not recommended for the faint of heart.
This article explains how Satan is stamping society with "the mark of the beast," which is wisdom against faith, employing government policy at taxpayer expense to coerce individuals to sacrifice their soul in order to satisfy the momentary lusts of their mortal spirit and corruptible flesh with things that perish with use. You see, it is all in the mindperception, not reality. Ideas are planted into your mind through perverse education and entertainment that do your thinking for you, so that you live a second-hand life just as you will serve a second-hand religion unless you take the Prophet's words back to God's unchanging Word to understand what He meant, not what Brother Branham said.
Truth is hate to those who hate the truth, because if you "know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." Oh, your body may be imprisoned in the world system, but your soul is emancipated: you are seated together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, in Jerusalem which is above and is free. A clear revelation of truth will overcome and give you victory over the world, sin, sickness, Satan and his social scientists. Truth is Absolute.
Just a little longer, and the Trumpet of God will sound.
Just a little longer, and we'll all be glory bound.
Look away to heaven, your redemption draweth nigh,
Just a little longer, and we'll meet Him in the sky.This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.
Your brother-in-Christ,

Quiet Transfer
June 28, 2007 Last month two Israeli organizations, The Association for Civil Rights in Israel and B'tselem, and The Israeli Information Centre for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories, issued a joint report on what the organizations describe as Israel's "quiet transfer" of Palestinians from the West Bank city of Hebron. This policy, the report notes, consists of three elements: the use of curfews and closing parts of the centre of the city to Palestinian vehicles and pedestrians, harassment and violence by Israeli soldiers, and a systematic failure to prevent Jewish settlers from attacking Palestinians living in the city.
The effect of this violence has been the depopulation and economic collapse of the Old City centre. More than a thousand Palestinian houses in the centre of the city have been abandoned and over 1,800 businesses forced to close.

Why Anti-Semitism?
A review of The Fatal Embrace: Ashkenazim and the State by Benjamin Ginsberg, University of Chicago Press, 1993. Henry Makow comments on this review by Paul Grubach, originally published in the now defunct Instauration (April, 1995, pp. 12-14):
In simple terms, "Why Anti-Semitism?" is a question Ginsberg fails to answer satisfactorily because he did not consider the ultimate implications of this research. He openly admits Jews amass tremendous power in a state, and then use that state to advance their own selfish interests to the detriment of the host culture. What Ginsberg fails to seeor refuses to consideris that the destructive, anti-Gentile characteristics of Jewry are a major cause of anti-Semitism. In this regard, many anti-Jewish reactions are normal, self-preserving responses on the part of non-Jews to the collective behavior of large groupings of Jews.
In their sojourn in America, Zionist Jews are again setting the stage for the aftermath of another "fatal embrace." The pro-Zionist government was and is detrimental to the interests of the American Majority at large. Is it any wonder that "anti-Semitic" movements should arise to challenge pro-Zionist policies? What Ginsberg labels as "anti-Semitism" is actually in many cases a healthy concern for the welfare of America, plus a critical attitude towards the Jewish power elite which props up a government harmful to Majority interests. Perhaps it is an intense Jewish ethnocentrism which blinds Professor Ginsberg from seeing the legitimacy of many "anti-Semitic" movements.
All things considered, Fatal Embrace is a step in the right direction. It strips away Jewry's aura of saintliness and shows readers the ulterior reality which lies behind the propaganda façade. As long as Jewish and Gentile politicians and intellectuals refuse to see the destructive aspects of Jewry and the legitimate side of "anti-Semitic" complaints, there will never be an open and honest discussion concerning the undeniable problems which burden Jewish-Gentile relations. Nor will these problems ever be resolved in a manner which is rational, humane, and acceptable to both Jews and Gentiles. . .

Comment: "Why Anti-Semitism?" Why indeed, since your Bible, Jewish historians and Encyclopedias establish that almost 100% of "so-called Jews," are as Jesus Messiah said (Matthew 23:33-35; Revelation 2:9; 3:9), not a Semitic people. Under the heading of "A brief History of the Terms for Jew" in the 1980 Jewish Almanac (page 3) we read: "Strictly speaking it is incorrect to call an Ancient Israelite a 'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew".
FBI's 9/11 Saudi Flight Documents Released
June, 22 2007 Newly released documents reveal the FBI suspected that a plane hired to transport members of the bin Laden family from the United States back to Saudi Arabia might have been chartered by Osama bin Laden himself. . . A heavily redacted FBI report on the incident begins by describing a private jet that was hired to pick up members of the bin Laden family that were in the US eight days after the 9/11 attacks. "The plane was chartered either by the Saudi Arabian Royal Family or Osama bin Laden". . . PENTTBOMB (page 3). Subsequent references to the chartered flight in the released documents state that it was "chartered by the Saudi Arabian Embassy in Washington, DC" (page 106). . .

NASA exposes their Apollo Moon landing Hoax!
June 20, 2007 Was it an accident? Did they realize what they were doing? Or are some NASA employees getting tired of supporting the lies? This image at the NASA site is a scale drawing of what Earth's sky would look like during the daytime if the atmosphere did not scatter sunlight. NASA admits that even with the sun shining, the stars would be visible. Yet for decades NASA has been claiming that it is nearly impossible for astronauts to see stars, however now their "Astronomy Picture of the Day" admits that without an atmosphere, we would see stars even when the sun was shining. Have you seen the Apollo press conference when Neil Armstrong and Mike Collins said they didn't see stars? Full story: iamthewitness.com
Comment: Brother Branham said, "They ain't going to get there. I don't believe, with all my heart, they'll ever get there". Has NASA Mooned America?
Anatomy of a Solar Storm
May 2007 The worst solar-storm season in half a century starts this year. These fiery explosionswhich unleash as much energy as a billion hydrogen bombscould, under the right conditions, black out cities and fry satellites. But new solar scopes can give us advance warning.
Last December, a colossal wave swept across the entire solar surface within minutes, bulldozing everything in its path. The rare tsunami-like shockwave formed on the heels of a major flare that erupted from an Earth-size sunspot 15 minutes earlier. Though that storm didn't have a major impact on Earth, we aren't always so lucky. . . Full story: popsci.com
Google asks Gov't to Fight Censorship
Washington, June 22, 2007 Once relatively indifferent to government affairs, Google Inc. is seeking help inside the Beltway to fight the rise of Web censorship worldwide. The online search giant is taking a novel approach to the problem by asking US trade officials to treat Internet restrictions as international trade barriers, similar to other hurdles to global commerce, such as tariffs.
Google sees the dramatic increase in government Net censorship, particularly in Asia and the Middle East, as a potential threat to its advertising-driven business model, and wants government officials to consider the issue in economic, rather than just political, terms. Full story: apnews.myway.com
Errors or Treason?
Our history has a cloudy, if not sordid past and we can't forget the army passing out smallpox infected blankets to the Sioux. . . Full story: newswithviews.com
Comment: Some important truths revealing how past history has been planned over the long term, and if you read between the lines you will recognize the identity of the Christ-hating 'hidden hand' behind the plan. And in relation to the "plan," an analysis of film footage shows explosions in real time at the controlled demolition of the World Trade Center.
Training Teens to Twist the Truth
"You can only have a new society . . . if you change the education of the younger generation. . ." (Marilyn Ferguson, The Aquarian Conspiracy, (New York: J.P. Tarcher, Inc., 1980) p. 280).
Meanwhile Promise Keepers "are launching a rite-of-passage offshoot for teenage boys:"
"Hoping to capture what organizers fear could be a lost generation of evangelical Christians, 'Passage' uses Christian rock bands, hip-hop artists, extreme sports exhibitions. . . Randy Phillips . . . says a youth revival is possible if the Christian message is repackaged in a more relevant form. . . '[T]hey are rejecting the current expression of the church. . .'" (Teens' Rite of Passage Can Include Their Faith).
"Instead of destroying and ridiculing the native names of the Creator God [of other religions], we . . . should introduce Jesus as the Son of their creator God." (Daniel Kikawa, Perpetuated in Righteousness, 1994, page 27. More information in this book review. See also "Culture Specific Evangelism Conference").
"Fundamentalism is a worldwide threat. . . So how do we counter it? The key is to change the view that salvation depends on playing by certain religious rules: everyone is saved."(Dominic Peccoud, Adviser for Socio-Religious Affairs, Religion as a Global Phenomenon for the New Millennium, World Economic Forum, Annual Meeting, 01.02.1999).

Comment: Again, if you read between the lines you will the identify the Christ-hating 'hidden hand' behind these plans.
Robotizing (Skinnerizing) of America
By Erica Carle © 2007 All Rights Reserved
Do you have free will?
You may think that is a stupid question. However, many materialist philosophers and social scientists believe that free will does not exist. They state that all human action is automatic at all times, that nothing can be credited to human will, inner control, or volition. They say we became what we are by the process of evolution, and everything we do depends on material conditions. Heredity and environment determine our destiny. We have no real part in making ourselves what we are or what we will become.
I heard a religious broadcaster protest that idea. He said that we do have free will because God allows us to sin. Sorry, but that proves nothing. We don't need free will to help us give in to sin, bad habits, or stupidity. Persons who lie, cheat, steal, murder, commit adultery, envy, intoxicate and drug themselves, are slothful, who blaspheme, exhibit violent temper, betray trusts, etc., are not demonstrating free will when they do these things. They are reacting to their environments like biological robots or automatons. They actually become unrestrained and uninspired biological machines. Free will is not involved. They do automatically what they think will give them pleasure and avoid what they think might cause them pain. Consideration of others is nonexistent in their reactions. No cerebral activity, inner control, or effort at restraint is required.
Free will is needed to build character and resist temptations not to give in to them.
Will is not self-abandonment, but self-control. Instead of saying that God allows us to sin, the preacher should have said that we have free will because God gives us the power NOT TO SIN.
There was a good deal of literature, discussion, and debate about this subject in the later part of the 19th Century. On the one hand, materialists such as Harriet Martineau, Professors Huxley and Clifford claimed that the feeling of volition is not the cause of a voluntary act, but merely its symbol in consciousness. It signals, but does not cause the action. This idea was compared to the blowing of a steam whistle on a locomotive. It signals, but does not cause, the starting of the locomotive.
In opposition, physician/biologist William B. Carpenter agreed that there are many human actions that are purely automatic and others that become automatic after much practice, and repetition. There are also persons having little or no self-control who, for most of their lives, might be compared to biological machines.
In his book, Principles of Mental Physiology with their Applications to the Training and Discipline of the Mind and the Study of its Morbid Conditions 1. Carpenter wrote, "It is in the control he acquires over the automatism in his nature, that man's freedom of choice essentially consists; whilst on the other hand, it is in virtue of his want of power to gain a complete control, that his freedom is limited."
At the time Carpenter's book appeared, the so-called social sciences were gaining prominence. Through them the idea was promoted that right was merely behavior of which Society, the Great Being, approved; and wrong was what Society, disapproved. According to social scienceScripture, the Ten Commandments, and the Golden Rule are no longer relevant. Public opinion replaces them, and social scientists direct and control public opinion. Free will and personality have to be phased out.
Auguste Comte, the father of social science stated, "We must get rid of personality in every shape . . . if we would found a powerful and enduring discipline in the name of humanity" (System of Positive Polity, Vol. IV. p. 249).
More recently, Harvard psychology professor, the late B. F. Skinner, argued that free will, if it exists, is not only useless, but dangerous and destructive to "social scientists'" plans to redesign culture for the future of the human race. Skinner wrote:
1. A scientific analysis of behavior dispossesses autonomous man and turns the control he has been said to exert over to the environment. The individual may then seem particularly vulnerable. He is henceforth to be controlled by the world around him, and in large part by other men . . . environmental contingencies now take over functions once attributed to autonomous man, and certain questions arise. Is man then abolished? Certainly not as a species or as an individual achiever. It is the autonomous inner man who is abolished, and that is a step forward . . . His abolition has been long overdue (Beyond Freedom and Dignity, B. F. Skinner; Bantam/Vantage Book, 1971, p.196, 205. NOTE: This book is funded by the National Institute of Mental Health)!!!
2. We want to know why men behave as they do. Any condition or event which can be shown to have an effect upon behavior must be taken into account. By discovering and analyzing these causes we can predict behavior; to the extent that we can manipulate them, we can control behavior (Science and Human Behavior; B. F. Skinner; The Macmillan Company, 1953, New York, p. 23).
3. A government may prevent defection by making life more interestingby providing bread and circuses and by encouraging sports, gambling, the use of alcohol and other drugs, and various kinds of sexual behavior, where the effect is to keep people within reach of aversive sanctions. The Goncourt brothers noted the rise of pornography in the France of their day: "Pornographic literature," they wrote, "serves a Bas-Empire . . . one tames people as one tames lions, by masturbation" (Beyond Freedom and Dignity, p. 32).
Skinner sought to control people by studying the stimuli which influence behavior. But he sought much more than that. His long term goal, the same as Auguste Comte's, was to change the entire culture by shifting control by the "organism itself" to that of its environment. To do this the culture designers need to be in control of the environmentboth the human and the natural environment. They need to tame the people and control the use of their property. This, they call social science.
Skinner's Beyond Freedom and Dignity was published in 1971. Since it was required reading for college courses all across the nation it became an immediate million copy best seller. After the 1970's millions of the young were trained and taught that they should make their own individual moral codes. What this meant was that they could adopt any behavior they wished to experiment with, or that had been suggested to them, and claim it as part of their personal morality.
With no rules or guidelines to defend them from vice and self indulgences, their desires became their morality, and no one had the right to tell them otherwise. They were Skinnerizedrobbed of free will and self control. They became environmentally-controlled automatons who thought they were free spirits. Parents of "free spirit" students could not understand the changes in the behavior of their offspring. Some young people were permanently damaged. Others did not survive their moral experimentation. Hardly a family was unaffected. It was, and is, an ongoing national tragedy, supported legally, financially, and philosophically by all branches of the US government.
The 1970 White House Conference on Children was one example of the support for sociological culture change. Participants claimed:
1. It is now clear that children and their families must be involved in the decision-making process if we are to increase the chances that positive innovations will be accepted. Any set of recommendations should be predicated on support for diversity in family life styles. Punitive measures and tactics toward those family forms that differ from the traditional must be eliminated and experimentation in ways of living accepted. Attempts to prejudge and restrict the future shape of society should be discouraged (Report to the President White House Conference on Children, Washington D. C. 1970. p. 232).
2. One of our most destructive educational assumptions is that "teachers know and children don't . . . The educational consequence of this myth is teacher-oriented rather than student-oriented schools.
And the rapidity with which the known world now changes provides new perspectives and reduces the "stability" of previous knowledge, so that a teacher may frequently have difficulty keeping up with changes in our societychanges about which students may be more informed (ibid p. 124).
Since the 1970s millions of Americans' minds have been vandalized and robbed of the ability to control their own thoughts and feelings. They have become biological machines tamed and trained for the cultural change of the New World Order. They have been skinnerized 2. Some of those who have been skinnerized in the 1970s and after now occupy high positions in business, education, government, and the media. Most of them are intelligent, but they lack free will. They are easily managed by behavior modifiers who know what behavior buttons to push to gain cooperation for the culture changes necessary to bring about the New World Order.
Those who are skinnerized no longer believe that individuals are responsible for their conduct. Responsibility is shifted to the environment. Credit and blame are no longer assigned to individuals. To a skinnerite it is the environment that is responsible for all types of behavior. Loading children on buses and transporting them away from schools in their own neighborhoods is an example of a skinnerite solution to what sociologists determined to be a problem. Airport security, as it is now being conducted, is another example of a skinnerite solution. The environment must be changed for every traveler. Every traveler must be considered to be an enemy. Blame cannot be assigned to any individual or type of individual. Old people in wheel chairs must be patted down, and must remove their shoes. Baby bottles must be checked for explosives and confiscated if they contain too much liquid. We all must submit to this new environment.
Like the bite of the fictional vampire, skinnerites seek to afflict others with their own disability of will and conscience. One who is skinnerized will lie when he deems it necessary, and betray those to whom he owes personal obligations. He has no consistent principlesonly goals. Many skinnerites not only ignore, but hate, the Bible, the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule, and make every effort to deprive others of their protection.
No matter where they are you can learn to recognize skinnerites by their talk and behavior, and by their attempts to turn individual problems into universal problems. Are you a skinnerized biological robot? Is your neighbor? A member of your family? Your teacher? Your congressman? Your mayor? Your governor? Your president? Is your behavior being modified for the New World Order? Will you allow culture redesigners to deprive you and future generations of free will and self control? Will you continue to allow skinnerized robots to rule? These are questions all of us will have to answer and act on. It is of vital importance that we retain and restore the ability to make right choices.
1. Reprints of this book are now available. It has been republished by Kessinger Publishing's Rare Reprints.
2. A word I recently coined. It means robotized. One who has been skinnerized is called a skinnerite. Skinnerites lack free will, love of truth, and independence of thought. Skinnerites have been tamed and trained to surrender their personality to the culture changers of the New World Order. If you find skinnerized, skinnerite and skinnerism to be useful words, they are yours to use at any time. nl482.htm
