Pope wants all Christians to accept His claimed succession from Apostle Peter

Roman Catholic Church’s wish for an «ecclesiology of communion» in recognizing the establishment of the Petrine lineage of the Church of Rome.

The Pope in Rome wants all Christians to rally behind his claimed apostleship.

Pope Benedict XVI reached out to Bartholomew I and the Eastern Church Monday in his annual letter to the Patriarch celebrating the Feast of St. Andrew. The message encouraged continued ecumenical talks towards unification of the churches of the East and West and «openness to the Holy Spirit» to guide them in the process.

The letter was delivered to the Ecumenical Patriarch of Istanbul, Bartholomew I, by way of a Papal delegation led by the President of the Pontifical Council for Christian Unity Cardinal Walter Kasper. The delegation concelebrated Mass with the Patriarch and gave him the letter in a ceremony afterwards.

«Our Churches have committed themselves sincerely over the last decades to pursuing the path towards the re-establishment of full communion, and although we have not yet reached our goal, many steps have been taken that have enabled us to deepen the bonds between us».

Pope Benedict XVI chose to reiterate the words that he had used while in Phanar, Turkey in 2006, to express his the Roman Catholic Church’s wish for an «ecclesiology of communion» in recognizing the establishment of the Petrine lineage of the Church of Rome. He wrote, «

It is a question of seeking together, inspired by the model of the first millennium, the forms in which the ministry of the Bishop of Rome may accomplish a service of love recognized by one and all».

My comment:

The Papal Church stands on two pillars:

The Jewish Apostle Peter would have fallen sick and fainted if he had seen the idol claimed to be of him in the Vatican. Who made him black in the first place?

One:

That the Popes has a Biblical authority, because they are the successors of the Apostle Peter.

Two:

That Jesus is physically present in the blood and wine at the alter of Catholic Churches, to be crucified every day in a not bloody manner.

If these two pillars are false, than the Church of Rome is a complete falsehood.

The Bible says Paul went to Rome. Not Peter. When Paul wrote the Apostolic letter to the believers in Rome, Peter was not even mentioned. Strange if Peter was supposed to become the first Bishop of Rome.

Peter was apostle to the Jews, not the gentiles in the pagan Roman empire. He wrote on of his letter from the Kingdom of Parthia, in todays Iraq. This kingdom was full of Jews who did not go back to Jerusalem after the exile in Babylon. Since Paul went westwards to Rome, Peter was sent to the Jews in the East.

Peter wrote two letters. No of them is mentioning Rome with a single word.

Peter was a married man. If He was the first Bishop of Rome, the pope is a blunt sinner by denying all Catholic priests, Bishop and Cardinals their Biblical right to marry.

The Pope in Rome claims Biblical authority from a mortal man, still denying that the Bible is the true Word of God. The Roman Catholic Church breeds sin, by letting Papal doctrines, human made rules and tradition nullify the Word of God, found in the Holy Bible.

Martin Luther was right. The Papal system is a corrupt Church, and is ruled by the spirit of antichrist. There is no truth in this claim from the Pope.

Pastor Bill Johnson to kill the largest pentecostal Church in Norway

Filadelfia in Oslo wants to be anointed with a mix of Toronto and «Kingdom Now» theology. Pastor Bill Johnson will lead the largest Norwegian Pentecostal Church into deception.

«Heaven invades the Earth». That is the theme for a week end outpouring of deceptive spirits in the largest Pentecostal Church in Norway, Filadelfia in Oslo. The conference is headed by a unique mix of Charismatic teachers from the Toronto movement, and Lutherans who have submitted to the spirits in Toronto.

Matthew 13:25
But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.

The conference will be held in the Norwegian Pentecostal congregation from 15th of 18th of April.

John Arnott and his wife

John Arnott from Toronto is coming to the conference, to lay his hands on member of the congregation, and anoint the crowed with the deceptive Toronto spirits. Together with him comes pastor Bill Johnson from Bethel Church in the US, who teachers Kingdom Now theology. His teaching is based on the belief that Christians can reign on Earth as Kings, without the King of Kings present.

Matthew 24: 24-25

For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible.See, I have told you ahead of time.

Both Arnott and Johnson are mentors and supporters of Todd Bentley, who lead the global outpouring of the Lakeland mega show, covered by God-TV. There have been no sign of repentance.

Alf Magnus

The Norwegian partners to this conference has submitted to «Catch`s the fire movement» of Rodney Howard Browne. Alf Magnus is the head of Youth With a Mission in Northern Europe, and took 100 Norwegian Christian leaders on a mission to Toronto a few years ago. Einar Ekerhovd is the head of the Oase-movement in Norway. He is a Lutheran, with links both to Toronto, and the claimed to be Kansas prophets around Bob Hartley.

1 John 5:19
We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.

The «Catch the fire movement» can be better described as a «Catch the demon» movement, destroying or leading Churches into submission of deceptive spirits, like the Kundalini spirit. Typical manifestation of Kundalini is holy laughter, uncontrolled shaking, animal noises and sensations of burning inside.

Einar Ekerhovd

When Pentecostal Christian pastors allow this kind of wolfs in sheep clouding to enter into their Churches, they will experience one of two likely futures: A new season of worldliness and division, caused by the spiritual death of its leadership. Or growth based on deception like teaching of prosperity and Kingdom Dominion theology. In the end, the church is destined for disaster.

Mark 13:13
All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.

The dangerous deception of Kingdom Now theology

Pastors like Bill Johnson believes that Jesus «the head» will return to «His body» in full maturity and dominion over Earth. This kind of preachers claim that the Church does not understand that it has misunderstood its calling, and do not exercise its powers.

The most important verse teachers like Bill Johnson use in a bid to catch you is:

1 Corinthians 4:8

Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have become kings—and that without us! How I wish that you really had become kings so that we might be kings with you!

When you read the rest of this chapter, you will see the irony used by Paul. The apostate Church in Corinth feels they have become kings, and have all they want. And Paul rebukes them, and explains that the true Kingdom awaits servants of Jesus that never became «King`s on Earth», but rather persecuted martyrs.

Men like Bill Johnson should not be allowed to preach in classic Pentecostal Churches, but stay locked inside the Word of Faith Movement.

Moses is another example of a man that refused to live like a King on Earth.

Hebrew 11: 24-25:

By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time. He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.

If we are kings, we can not rule the earth before the King of Kings returns as King Messiah. But just before He returns men and women from the Toronto Movement, will celebrate and rule as Kings with a false King of Kings. The last antichrist in flesh that has come to Jerusalem claiming to be God. His dominion will surely be global and powerful.

May be the Pentecostal leaders in the Church of Oslo should listen to Jesus the Messiah, who refused to bow down to a preacher of «Kingdom Now theology»:

Matthew 4:7-9

Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”.

Pastor Bill Johnson has done it, and got it.

Bible studies # 36: The Jews were called to bring light to the Gentiles

Gentiles were saved before Jesus came in flesh. Thanks to the offerings and sacrifices for all nations is the Temple in Jerusalem.

A model of the second Temple in Jerusalem, destroyed in 70 A.D by the Romans.

I once met a Hippie who could not believe in the Message of Jesus being the savior of the World.

«What happened to the gentiles before Jesus was born. Did they all die and went to Hell?».

This made me puzzle in the scripture. When I met Him again I had the reply ready:

«The Jewish Messiah Jesus has always been around. He has always existed. He is the Law. Salvation did not first become available to the gentiles when He took flesh, born into the World by a Jewish virgin›.

The Jewish people had already been chosen to become a Holy nation, and a kingdom of priests. To serve the Messiah.

Exodus 19:6
you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.”

In the Temples in Jerusalem, there was daily sacrifices for the sins of the whole World, and intercessions to the living God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Isaiah 56:7
these I will bring to my holy mountain and give them joy in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar; for my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

The revelation of the knowledge of God of the Hebrews, was not limited to the Jewish homeland. Through the Jewish King Solomon, the knowledge and wisdom of the living God was spread into all nations on Earth. The Bible explains that kings from all nations sent men to Jerusalem to get a share of Solomon`s wisdom.

1 Kings 4:34
Men of all nations came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings of the world, who had heard of his wisdom.

They did not talk about the weather.

1 Kings 10:24
The whole world sought audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom God had put in his heart.

The Jewish King surely explained to them about the sacrifices and intercession done in the Temple of the Lord. Global salvation became a matter if men from all nations wanted to believe in God of Israel or not. Other «gods» and idols were surely not permitted. Commandment number one and two was surely explained by Solomon to King sent men from all nations.

The Heavenly authority of the Jewish King could not be questioned, neither the approval of the atoning sacrifices and offerings on the alter of the Temple.

2 Chronicles 7:1
[ The Dedication of the Temple ] When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.

When Jesus the Messiah died on the cross, He became the only valid sacrifice and intercession tool available for mankind. For Jew and gentiles alike.

40 years after the Messiah had died on the cross and resurrected from the grave, the Temple sacrifices and intercession came to a brutal end. In 70 A.D the second Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed, never to be re-build.

The Jewish people were scattered all over the Globe, supposed to continue to serve the living God. Still, they were called to give the Earth the knowledge of the Messiah who had always been with them In Spirit, and who also had come in flesh.
