Catholic Bible with book claiming the Messiah will die at end of age

The book of 2 Esdras is found in some versions of the Catholic Bible. It claims that at the end of the age the Messiah will die. Reject this false prophetic book in regards to the Messiah, but read some interesting stuff about the coming of the man of lawlessness.

The Papal system has approved many books not inspired by The Holy Ghost in a bid to defend the gospel of salvation by works.
The Papal system has approved many books not inspired by The Holy Ghost in a bid to defend the gospel of salvation by works.

One of my faithful commentators does use the Apocrypha to try to justify some of the Roman Catholic doctrines. To try to explain how dangerous this kind of attitude is, I will try to use the book of 2 Esdras. This book was a part of the Vulgate, and the first Latin cannon. But have correctly been rejected by those who claim that use of the Apocrypha will open up the Church for doctrines taught by demons.

The book of 2 Esdras came into the Catholic cannon, to strengthen the defense of the false gospel of salvation by works.

2 Esdras 9: 7

«Some people will escape destruction and be saved by their good work or by their faith».

Just like the book of Tobit. During an earlier Bible school lesson, I have explained that the book of Tobit is not inspired by the Holy Ghost, because it promotes witchcraft. The book of 2 Esdras has other errors, that is even more spectacular. This book of this false prophet correctly claims that God has a Son, and portray Him as the Messiah. But it also claims that all men including the Messiah, is going to die at the end of the age.

Only God the Most High will be left.

This is basically a type of revelation that the prophet Muhammad is going to receive some hundred years later. That God the Almighty, which in Islam is named «Allah», also have a prophet son named Jesus. The Messiah who appear in this book in the Catholic Bible, seems to be quite similar to the «Islamic Jesus», a mortal prophet. Who is dead an gone, and never to return again.

2 Esdras 7:28-29.

«My Son, the Messiah will be revealed, together with those who comes with him. He will bring four hundred years of happiness to all these survivors. At the end of that time, my Son the Messiah and all human beings will die».

The story ends with all men coming back after seven days, and will find God the Most High sitting in his judgment seat. Now people will go to the pit of Hell or to Paradise.

I feel that more closer than this, the Catholic faith will never get to Islam. But this is not a revelation from God of the Bible. This is a message to us inspired by demons.

One other verse from this book of the Apocrypha, might serve as a message of how antichrist will come an reign:

2. Esdras 13:25.

«This is the meaning of the vision. The man you saw coming up from the sea, represents the one who God Most High has kept ready for many ages. He will free the World he created, and establish a new World order for those who survive»

The true Holy Bible says the man that comes up from the sea to create a new World order, is the antichrist. In the book of Revelation, the Jewish Apostle John gives him the name «The beast». Martin Luther identified this man who rule with the power of the beast, to be the Pope of Rome. Luther called the present Pope an antichrist, the head of a powerful religious system claiming to be holy.

Revelation 13:2

«And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority»

The book of 2 Edras also explains, that the man that comes up and out of the sea, will gather a great crowed of «peace loving people», to establish this new World order.

2 Edras 13:39.

«You saw him gather another great crowed of peace loving people. These are the 10 tribes of Israel, who were taken away into captivity in the time of King Hoshea, King Shalmaneser of Assyria captured them, and brought them to a land east of the river Euphrates».

The prophet goes on telling us that they moved further east, and that God even blocked rivers for them, so they could cross, like the Hebrews passed through the Red Sea. And not to forget. This Catholic book explains that when these 10 tribes return to bring peace to Israel, God will again depart the waters of the rivers, to make them cross over on dry land.

This reminds me about the great miracles and wonders, the last antichrist will perform. And you do not need to guess from which land in the East, this people are going to return.The true book of Revelation in the Bible speaks about 200 million «peace loving» soldiers who will march to make war on Israel. I guess that must be the Communist state of China, or India. Most likely both of them.

In 2. Esdras 6:21 you can read more about what this prophet tells will happen just before the end of the age.

2. Esdras 6:21

«Children only one year old will speak. Pregnant women will give birth after only three and four months, and their premature babies will live and run about.»

The Pope lead you astry from the tru Biblical faith
The Pope lead you astry from the tru Biblical faith

Since God once made a donkey speak, I cant rule out the possibility of such an event taking place. But since it has not been mentioned in the Holy Bible, I will warn you from believing this is anything but demonic fiction.

Because in this apocalyptic book, there will be even more terrible things going on:

2. Esdras 5:8.

«At their monthly periods, women will bear monsters».

Well, to come to a conclusion, lets start with the tittle of this article:

«Catholic Bible with book claiming the Messiah will die at end of age»

This could have been the truth, if you had just replace the word Messiah with the word antichrist. He will surely die, and end up in the lake of fire.

Please repent, and get rid of the «Demon Son of the demon God Most High» that rules in your heart. Get your self a Bible that is not corrupted.

Bible lesson #3: Catholic Mary a goddess. The Jewish mother of Jesus a blessed human being

The Catholic Church explains to us that Mary is a goddess, the Queen of Heaven. The Bible display the mother as a human being, a humble servant of her Master.

The Roman Catholic image of the Jewish mother of Jesus
The Roman Catholic image of the Jewish mother of Jesus

Was the mother of Jesus a goddess or a Jewish human being?

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church

Paragraph: 2853:

«Victory over the “prince of this world” was won once for all at the Hour when Jesus freely gave himself up to death to give us his life. This is the judgment of this world, and the prince of this world is “cast out.” “He pursued the woman” but had no hold on her: the new Eve, “full of grace” of the Holy Spirit, is preserved from sin and the corruption of death (the Immaculate Conception and the Assumption of the Most Holy Mother of God, Mary, ever virgin)»

The Bible tells us of a completely different Jewish woman. When an Angel appeared to her, she confessed:

Luke 1:38
«I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May it be to me as you have said.” Then the angel left her».

No Jew, nor the mother of Jesus wants us to pray to them:

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church

Paragraph: 2679
«Mary is the perfect Orans (pray-er), a figure of the Church. When we pray to her, we are adhering with her to the plan of the Father, who sends his Son to save.»

The Bible tells us its a sin to pray in any other name than Jesus, to use any other mediator:

The Jewish mother of Jesus might have looked like this
The Jewish mother of Jesus might have looked like this

1 Timothy 2:5
«For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus»

The Jewish mother of Jesus did not perform any miracles, and did not even want to entertain the wedding in Cana, that had run out of wine. She bluntly told the wedding servants, and all of us to listen to Jesus, and not to come to her:

John 2:5
«His mother said to the servants, «Do whatever he tells you»

The jewish mother of Jews does not have a teaching of her own, and she do not have any particular role in the formation of the first Church. I guess thats why none of the Apostles even mentioning her in their pastoral letters? Neither the Apostle Paul, neither Peter, Jude, nor the Apostle John or the person who wrote the letter to the Hebrews.

The pope of Rome does not tell us the truth about the mother of Jesus.

Bible lesson # 16: Those who sin are to be rebuked publicly. Also the Pope

Some people do not believe in God. Many rejects Jesus as the Messiah because they cant find Him, when they look at us.

The Pope is a public figure, and needs to be rebuked in public.
The Pope is a public figure, and needs to be rebuked in public.

This week I have been under heavy attack accused of being to harsh on the Roman Catholic Church. I have been accused of hating Catholics, and the Church. My readers want me to implement the words of Jesus: «love one another». Truly we have to, but how do we find the best way of doing so?

One of the regular visitors on this site, said: «You are attacking, what do not deserve to be attacked».

Also I have to accept to stand the public trial. But first I need to examine my self, to investigate if I am with faith, or have gone astray. I also need to rejoice when I am persecuted for telling the truth. So this is a fine balancing act between right and wrong, the truth and lies.

The Word of God always has to be our guide to such an examination.

Let me do a quick check:

Luke 17:3
«So watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him»

1 Timothy 5:20
«Those who sin are to be rebuked publicly, so that the others may take warning».

My small daughter once came to me with eyes of a bimbo:
– Papa, you believe in Jesus, do you not?

My reply:
«Yes I do»

My daughter smiled, and continued:
«Jesus, is good. Is he not»

«Yes my daughter»

«So you also have to be good to me?»

Now I understood that something fishy was in the pipeline:

«Yes, I have to».

So, you always have to say Yes, when I ask you about something?

Now it was my time to smile:
«Absolutely not».

Now, the smile on my daughters face disappeared.
«Papa, you are not with Jesus!»

I requested my daughter to listen to me for some time:
«If I say «Yes» to something that would do you no good, it would be the opposite of love to approve it. Than my love for you would be based on falsehood»

I gave her a lot of examples, she finally understood, and the smile came back on her face.

I guess that is exactly what our Holy Father in Heaven is doing to us?

There can be no love outside the truth. Jesus is the truth. He is every Word of the Bible. To rebuke lies and errors, was very much an important part of the Ministry of my Master Jesus of Nazareth. Since I am His ambassador, I am called to tell people, even in public, when they approve or promote sin as the truth.

Now, we all run the risk of rebuking people based on our possible corrupt, twisted or faulty use of the scriptures. That is not what Jesus is telling us to do. He is the Word. Word by Word. Revealed to those who have accepted the Word, surrendered to Him, and received the Holy Ghost. Those of His faithful, who have tasted some of the bread of life, shall have in abundance. Thats a Biblical promise.

Paul even tells us to rebuke sinners in public. That seems to be a harsh way of rebuking people. But Paul is not talking about hidden personal sin. He speaks in plural. Sin of groups, even Churches and nations.

How do we rebuke a nation? We cant call it into our dining room, and talk to it?

How do we rebuke a Church who operates in public life? I guess we have to rebuke her in public?

The Papal System has to be rebuked in public. Because I love my Catholic sisters and brothers, I will continue doing so till my last breath. She is robbing people I love for their salvation, making them support a religious system that has falsified and twisted the truth. It holds no truth.

Bible lesson # 20: Christian truth, attitude and culture

The truth about Jesus never changes. Christian attitude do change, and Christian culture is a product of our attitudes.

Breaking of bread and sharing has always been a fruit of true Christianity
Breaking of bread and sharing has always been a fruit of true Christianity

Many people think Christianity is about attitudes. They look at what Christians are saying or doing to measure the truth. How often do we not hear people saying: «The Priest said so and so», or «The pastor on Christian-TV did like this».

Others are looking at Christian culture to try to explain the truth. That is an approach that is doomed to fail. Because a lot of non-sense is promoted as «Christian culture», but without having its base in the truth.

Mark 7:13

«Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that».

Regardless of what people who claim to be «Christians» might say and think, the truth about Jesus never changes.

Hebrews 13:8

«Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever».

The Word of God is the only measure of true Christianity.

John 17:17

«Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth».

What the Bible explains to be sin, is sin, either claimed to be Christians believe this or not. The truth about Jesus does not change. Regardless of his «followers» promoting sin or making a mockery out of His name by their actions

How can there be a difference between the truth in the Messiah and Christian attitude?

The Christian attitude is basically a set of conclusion that a person have made after reading the Word of God. Like the need to share, laying of hands and praying for the sick, the need to forgive and reconcile. Our goal will always be to achieve «christliknes», to be able to reflect Him, to walk and talk in the same manner as Jesus the Messiah him self.

1 john 2: 5

«But if anyone obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.»

Our ability to do so, is very fragile. It can in the first place not be done without the power of The Holy Spirit. Second we will always make mistakes, and daily be in need of His mercy and grace. Our failure to achieve «christliknes» will even put some non-believers away from the true faith. But the reason for such denial of Jesus, is a faulty focus on man, ignoring the Word of God to be the truth.

If men seek the truth about Jesus. they will all find Him in the Word. Sola scripture.

A Christian culture is the product of people with a Christian attitude working together. This culture can take many forms and colors, and will always be full of shortcomings and even flaws. We are all humans, who can not escape our flesh and Worldly temptations. Paul the Jewish Apostles explains to us about a constant battle between his spirit and his flesh.

Inside my office, we have tried to build a Christian culture. But the moment we walk out of the door, we enter into an anti-Christian society. The level of anti-Christianity around you, is not constant. For example: It will be much easier to be a Christian in Norway than in India. Simply because a higher per cent of the population in Norway have read the Word of God, tried their best to achieve «christliknes», and join other Christians in a bid to build a Christian culture.
