Babylonian prayers in the launching of the Obamian administration

Babylonian prayers in the launching of the Obamian administration

Feminist minister, gay minister and minister against gay “marriage” are invited for leading religious prayer ceremonies for the consecration of Barack Obama

Julio Severo

The “inclusion” propaganda, quite present during the electoral campaign of Obama, now conquers an opportunity in the traditional religious ceremonies for his inauguration. American presidents, all Protestants — except for one Catholic —, sought to surround themselves with prayers, even if symbolic. Yet, for the first time, an elected president wants to surround himself with prayers made by clerics with behaviors and values incompatible with the Bible which they affirm to believe in.

During the inauguration oath, January 20, Obama invited to pray for him Rev. Rick Warren, to represent conservatives. Not that Warren is strictly conservative, but only because he does not support homosexual “marriage” and abortion he is automatically left in the conservative category in the liberal eyes. In fact, they shoot the “conservative” label on any least view disagreeing abortion or sodomy. Even if Warren were only against abortion, even so liberals would shout out labels against him.

Inclusion: a door for feminism, sodomy and other aberrations

In order to not give the impression that the presence of Warren represents the ideological stands of his administration, Obama made the point to select the liberal minister Sharon E. Watkins to deliver the sermon in the National Prayer Service in the National Cathedral in the day following the presidential inauguration. This service is traditionally attended by the president and vice president; members of the Supreme Court, Congress and the diplomatic corps; and a host of clergy members and dignitaries.

Watkins, who considers herself progressive and is a member of the leftist Protestant Sojourners, is the first woman to lead a mainline Protestant denomination. Now she will be the first woman to lead a presidential prayer ceremony, where her sermon will focus on unity, inclusivity and tolerance. Also at the National Cathedral a prayer will be offered by Ingrid Mattson, the first woman president of the Islamic Society of North America.

Another official guest to pray for Obama is Rev. Joseph Lowery, who worked with Rev. Martin Luther King. Even though Lowery is revered as a civil rights leader, over the last 35 years he has been more notable for his inflammatory rhetoric and embrace of conspiracy and radical causes, such as supporting terrorist Muslim Yasir Arafat and communist guerillas.

To deliver the invocation for him, Obama also chose Bishop Gene Robinson, who entered a legal partnership with another man. Because of his attitude of not repenting of sodomy and assuming openly a homosexual relationship with another man, the Robinson case became the principal division point in the worldwide Anglican Communion. He endorsed Obama in August 2007, and has since then remained a spiritual adviser to Obama. He will be the first homosexual to lead an official presidential prayer ceremony. The event will be 18, two days before the prayer ceremony by Warren.

Matt Barber notes, “It’s a shame that President-elect Obama apparently has so little regard for his Christian constituents that he would give such a high place of honor to a self-styled man of God whose only claim to fame is that he abandoned his wife and children to enter, ‘loudly and proudly,’ a sexually deviant lifestyle expressly condemned by the very Bible he’s ironically called ‘holy and sacred.’”

However, gay militants have different views. The radical homosexual group Integrity USA, which pushes the gay agenda within the Episcopal Church, declared, “While there are many miles to go before we are done with racism, sexism and homophobia in this country, we look forward to Barack Obama’s inauguration, to Sharon Watkins’ sermon and to Gene Robinson’s prayers as signs of great progress and profound hope.” Integrity USA has also remarked that Watkins and Robinson are an indication that we are entering an historic era of diversity and inclusion.

Even Rick Warren made interesting remarks. The Washington Post said,

Warren issued a statement praising Obama for selecting Robinson, saying the president-elect “has again demonstrated his genuine commitment to bringing all Americans of goodwill together in search of common ground. I applaud his desire to be the president of every citizen.”

In the prayer ceremonies for his presidential consecration, Obama wants presidentially to consecrate “inclusion” — meaning that everyone should be included in everything. If men can be soldiers and generals, feminists and homosexuals also can. If men can be ministers, feminists and homosexuals also can. If women can be day-care center workers and nannies, men and homosexual also can. Besides, it will be strengthened the feminist ideal that, whether in a day care center or in a police car, men and women can work side by side without being married to one another — but not without falling into sexual temptations.

Zero tolerance for inclusion within the Obamian administration

Yet, to build a society mirroring his inclusivity ideology, Obama was very careful so that his administration was composed only by pro-abortion, pro-sodomy and pro-feminism militants. Only liberals are able to spread the best throughout society the forced inclusion of everyone into everything.

The inclusivity of Obama involves symbolically everyone only in the propaganda. Outside the propaganda, there will be no inclusion. Conservative politicians against abortion or sodomy were not selected to fill Cabinet posts in his administration, even though most of the Christian constituents of Obama voted against homosexual “marriage” in California.

Why would Obama respect his constituents by allowing inclusivity in his administration? Those that believe that abortion and sodomy are incompatible for a humane and healthy society could upset the Obamian agenda. So outside the symbolic prayer ceremonies, there will be no room in the Obama administration for politicians not accepting the leftist sanctity of abortion and sodomy.

We do not know what effect the symbolic prayer ceremonies by those chosen by Obama — a feminist minister, a gay minister and a minister against gay “marriage” and abortion — will have, but it is evident that the Obama administration is beginning marked by a religious salad that eventually honors just the leftist ideology of inclusivity. It is the Babylonian spirit at last leaving its apocalyptic closet to influence nations with dark cultural trends.

Yet, away from the propaganda, from mere religious symbolisms and from politically-correct extremisms, three Christians took on themselves the commitment to pray in the backstage, even though they were not chosen by Obama.

In the midst of Babylonian prayers, sincere prayers outside of the liberal media coverage

According to the online version of the Charisma magazine, Rep. Paul Broun, joined together by pro-family leaders Rev. Rob Schenck and Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney, began the initiative to pray and anoint with oil the doorway Obama will walk through on Jan. 20 on his way to the inaugural platform

Schenck read from Proverbs 21:1, which says God directs the hearts of kings, and from 1 Timothy 2:1-4, which admonishes Christians to pray for those in authority. He then rubbed oil imported from Jerusalem on the doorpost of the arched walkway to consecrate it “to the use of God and His Word.”

“Oil symbolizes consecration, or setting something apart for God’s use,” Schenck said in a statement. “George Washington used oil during the dedication of the U.S. Capitol. We used oil today to set apart the walkway and doors that will be the literal right of passage for Barack Obama as he ascends to the highest office in our land.”

Broun, a Baptist layman who was widely criticized during the election for calling Obama a Marxist and likening him to Adolf Hitler, said he hopes Obama as president will heed God’s direction.

“It’s important for us to pray for this place, but it’s also important for us to pray for the people who are involved so that God, as He stirs our hearts, that we can hear very clearly and that we can heed God’s directions and can follow those directions,” Broun said. “Because that’s what’s going to make the nation successful, that’s what’s going to put this country back on the right course is our listening to the Lord, reading His Word, understanding what God expects of us and what He wants of us so that we can follow in obedience.”

Mahoney, the director of the Washington DC-based Christian Defense Coalition, is on a 21-day fast for Obama.

Fervent prayers are needed, so that God may act and intervene as the God of Elijah in the midst of a religious nation, but whose president and evangelical leaders as Watkins and Robinson use the name of God only in their lips, with prayers from hearts that in practice want distance from God and his will.

Obama welcomes symbolic Christian participations of evangelical ministers, provided that they are properly deprived of the Kingdom of God values and do not reflect the image of God, whether in the government, whether in society. The humanist, liberal and leftist mindset, which sees the secular State as its exclusive possession, accepts only the reflection of warped images of the agenda of abortion, sodomy, state inverse racism and pagan Christianity as positive influences within the society.

It is with such mindset that Obama has made a commitment to strike down all laws against abortion and sodomy in the US. As a 32-grade Mason, he is ready to change the course of the US and world for a new age, where the New World Order will be marked by the expansion of the abortion right, the gay agenda and the unification of religions for equality and peace. It will be the marriage and climax of socialism with liberalism and ecumenism.

Yet, God does not change. He deposes and elects presidents. He overthrows and raises powerful nations. He humiliates the proud and honors the humble. With the fervent prayers of his faithful servants, God can make great political and government surprises, because his eternal and universal government is above any new or old world order. If Babylon raises herself arrogantly again to the heavens, from on high an answer will come.

Rivers of Blood: A Brazilian pro-life Evangelical writes about the contraceptive culture and prophecies in Revelation

Rivers of Blood

A Brazilian pro-life Evangelical writes about the contraceptive culture and prophecies in Revelation

LifeSiteNews Guest Commentary by Julio Severo

BRAZIL, December 17, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) — In the early days of the human race, Cain killed Abel and buried him, and the Bible says that Abel's blood cried out from the ground. The murder of Abel did not go unpunished or forgotten.

In the end times, the Bible tells us that rivers, seas and the fountains of water will “become blood as of a dead man” (Revelation 16:3-4), explaining that because of the shedding of innocent blood (see Revelation 16:5-6), judgment shall come.

From the beginning to the end, the Bible makes it clear that no murder of innocents goes unpunished, because their blood cries out for justice.

Today, perhaps in fulfillment of these prophesies, rivers have become deposits of annihilated lives. Hundreds of millions of women use pills and other birth-control devices that provoke micro-abortions that end flushed in toilets, and then into rivers.

Micro-aborted children: Who cares?

The current generation was conditioned not to know or care that one of the functions of contraception is to provoke imperceptible micro-abortions. (To understand the way IUD and hormonal methods annihilate recently-conceived lives in the womb, see: http://www.epm.org/artman2/publish/prolife_birth_control_pil...)

How many users of “the pill” know that hormonal contraception not only prevents conception, but also prevents a newly-conceived embryo from implanting in the mother's uterus? A new human being, too tiny to see, dies of hunger, and is flushed out of his mother's body with her next menstrual cycle. The contraceptive pill not only represents the refusal of God's gift of new life, but it actively destroys it.

The current generation lives a planned and conditioned life, where the priority is material comfort and pleasure. With that mentality, children become burdens and hindrances. With contraception, they become options and disposable items, where governments and individuals impose controls and limitations.

In an age of planning, it is easy to discard human life. Even those who are called Christians use the same worldly means, spilling innocent blood into rivers.

The Contraceptive Religion: Socialism and Esotericism take aim at human reproduction

Is not the Bible correct when it says that the people of God suffer destruction because they lack knowledge? How many, among the people of God, know that Margaret Sanger (1879-1966), who coined the term “birth control”, had strong connections to the New Age, socialism and sexual depravity?

In her first essay, The Woman Rebel, she confessed, “Birth control appeals to the advanced radical because it is calculated to undermine the authority of the Christian churches. I look forward to seeing humanity free someday of the tyranny of Christianity no less than Capitalism”. [1]

Sanger also had profound links to Nazism. Before World War II, Sanger had close contacts with Nazi Germany officials, because the Nazi system of total planning and control was much more open to her ideas of total control over human reproduction.

While Sanger struggled to promote the controversial idea of birth control in the US, in Germany there was no opposition. Nazism welcomed the family-planning ideology promoted by Sanger. With its vision brutally based on the theory of evolution, the Nazi government saw birth control as a normal component of its policy of planning and control over the human "animal".

In Nazi Germany, medicine was at the service of the “collective well-being” ideology. Any measure was acceptable to achieve a greater benefit. “Unfit” lives could be sacrificed, if the result was to improve the quality of life of productive human beings. Nazism was similar to Communism in that it helped to inspire the modern culture of materialism, where so-called science and technological advancement ignore the intrinsic value of human life.

Even though modern governments do not impose all the Nazi policies of social control, the role and effort by governments in the indoctrination of the masses in contraceptive planning is undeniable. Nazism died, but government intentions of control over reproduction live on.

Modern technocratic systems of population control and family planning have deeper roots in the occult movements of the 19th century. Before Margaret Sanger, Annie Besant (1847-1933), the famous British theosophist, distributed leaflets teaching couples how to have fewer children. No, she did not work in pagan Africa or pagan India, but in the mostly Protestant England. With her new ideology, Besant preached that smaller families were a blessing.

Besant, whose work influenced Sanger, had come from an unsuccessful marriage with an Anglican priest, next getting involved with socialism, theosophy, the New Age and lesbianism. But so-called Protestant England did not care about her lesbianism, her occultism, or that in the Bible God states that children are blessings and that blessed is the man that has many children, like a quiver full of arrows.

The contraceptive religion of Besant, with all its consequences, prevailed over the superficial Christianity of the English people. Her heresies did not begin in the Christian churches and it did not hit the Christian churches first.

Besant's aim was a place untouchable by the church pulpits: the Christian marriage bed. From this intimacy, far away from pulpits, a new ideology, a new religion was spread that eventually swallowed the truth proclaimed from the pulpits, casting into oblivion the Biblical idea that bigger families are big blessings.

It is no accident that Sanger founded in India (the same India venerated by esoteric mystics like Besant) the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), the largest and oldest abortionist organization in the world. Today, the UN and IPPF work together to implement policies of contraceptive planning around the world. Those organizations see abortion and homosexuality not as murder and perversion, but as unalienable human rights. Such work is perfectly tuned to the goals and dispositions of socialist ideology.

The vision of Besant, Sanger, socialism, the UN and IPPF, contraception is the rejection of the unfit and the acceptance of theosophical, technological, Nazi and socialist planning over human reproduction. In the Bible vision, contraception is the rejection of the planning of God over the married sexual life, in a modern autonomy where individual independence is proudly preached — at the cost of God, but never at the cost of the State.

Illusory Rights and Freedom: State Planning vs. Divine Planning

The result is that the current generation, including most Christians, trust in the technological devices of contraception the same way the German people trusted in the technology and social planning of Nazi Germany and the same way the Soviet people trusted the state planning of the communist Soviet Union. Both socialist systems preached the contraceptive religion of Margaret Sanger and Annie Besant.

The illusory freedom offered by hormonal contraception has cost lives that are technologically hindered and rejected from a natural and just refuge in the womb. The uterus of the modern woman, by the will of social planners, became a little Nazi death camp, where the conceived life, forced into a micro-abortive contraceptive program, is immediately discarded. It is the state and theosophical planning invading the sanctuary of life, bringing destruction.

The contraceptive culture asserts the right of men and women to be free from all divine planning in their lives, but it is never open for them to be free from surreptitious government planning. At the end, with so many acquired rights — sexual rights, reproductive rights, etc. —, the individual is intoxicated by the illusion that, living under the contraceptive planning of the United Nations and his national government, he is free.

Sin always tends to lead to more sin. The countries that first welcomed birth control were also the first ones to legalize abortion. The nations today that have the highest rates of contraception are exactly the nations where surgical abortion became a right as sacred as was considered sacred the right of the pagans to sacrifice new-born babies to their gods. The difference is that the new bloodthirsty gods are respected because of their cloak of scientific sophistication.

In historic pagan religions, the priest was predominantly homosexual. Coincidentally, the most contraceptive nations are also fervently pro-sodomy. The contraceptive “religion” revived, in a sophisticated and “scientific” way, paganism, whose homosexual priesthood and sacrifice of babies were sacred. The “right” to sodomy and abortion is sacred today in the contraceptive countries. Only coincidence?

The contraceptive religion versus the pro-life culture of the Kingdom of God

The United States, Europe and United Nations are exporting and imposing the contraceptive “religion” throughout the world. No religion today has more adherents and faithful observers than the religion of contraception. In fact, the contraceptive religion has strong presence in the mainline world religions, as Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism, and it has been gradually penetrating Islam as well.

As in the case of Freemasonry, the contraceptive religion permeates world religions as a parasite, but the Masonic religion is losing in numbers and strength in relation to its contraceptive rival.

Even though it penetrates all religions, the contraceptive religion is unable to make the smallest infiltration in the Kingdom of God.

The culture of the Kingdom of God is pro-life, pro-conception, pro-children and pro-family and it is totally against abortion, micro-abortion and homosexual and other sterile and perverted sex relations. For men and women attuned to the culture of the Kingdom of God, children are blessings and each new birth is as it were a Christmas, making a family bigger and richer.

Christmas, which is commemorated as the birthday of Jesus Christ, is a time of joy and happiness. As Mary welcomed the baby Jesus in her womb, so every woman who opens herself fully to her maternal role is receiving not only a little child, but also the presence of Jesus himself. Jesus says:

“Whoever welcomes a child in my name welcomes me. Whoever welcomes me welcomes not me but the one who sent me”. (Mark 9:37)

The joy and happiness of Christmas are multiplied with each birth that we welcome in the name of Jesus. When a Christian woman welcomes her maternal mission in the name of Jesus, she is welcoming not only a baby that comes as a gift planned by God, but also more power from the Kingdom of God. The God who planned the sexual and reproductive life of Mary knows well how to plan the size and number of his blessings for each womb and family, whenever he is given the opportunity.

The beautiful example of Mary contrasts sharply with modern examples, where wombs are closed to the full extent of the blessings of God and are open to the contraceptive illusion, with all its micro-abortive consequences filling rivers with blood.

Blood, Justice, and Judgment

Does the bloodshed of annihilated lives by hormonal contraception and dumped in rivers have some relation with the bloody rivers prophesied in Revelation? We do not know.

What we know is that there is a real apocalyptic scenario of hundreds of millions of women who, knowingly or not, micro-abort their recently-conceived babies through chemical contraception. Next, with a mere flush, those tiny micro-aborted babies end in rivers, transforming them into rivers of blood.

What we know also is that Revelation makes it clear that judgment shall come. And thousands of years ago the Bible explained that the shedding of innocent blood causes the land to be polluted:

“You shall not pollute the land in which you live, for blood pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of the one who shed it”. (Numbers 35:33 ESV)

As it happened in the phenomenal technological and scientific advance of Nazi Germany, the cost of modern progress of technology and science in human reproduction is delusion and the shedding of innocent blood. Hormonal contraception has transformed modern, sexually active men and women into shedders of innocent blood, leaving society under the curse of uncountable number of murders that shall bring judgment.

Where are the prophets to warn the society about the consequences of its acts?

Where are the prophets to warn about the deceits of contraception?

Where are the prophets to warn that the blood of innocents cries out for justice and exposes the whole society to destruction and judgment?

Brazilian Court Convicts Homeschooling Family Despite Evidence of Success

Brazilian Court Convicts Homeschooling Family Despite Evidence of Success

Refuses to review test scores, psychological reports proving effectiveness of homeschooling

By Matthew Cullinan Hoffman

MINAS GERAIS, BRAZIL, December 23, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Cleber and Bernadeth Nunes have been convicted by a second civil court in Brazil for homeschooling their children, despite passing government-imposed tests that teachers admitted they could not pass themselves.

The three judge panel in the court of second instance refused even to examine the test results, which give a passing grade to both of their sons for a series of highly rigorous tests on a variety of subjects, including mathematics, geography, science, history, Portuguese, English, arts, and physical education.

"We cannot even allow the examination here of the quality of education that is being given at home, because homeschooling never can be substituted for regular instruction," said Judge Almeida Diniz, a member of the panel. The tests were ordered by a criminal judge who is trying the same case in his own court.

The civil court also refused to receive into evidence an assessment showing that the children are psychologically healthy, have a good relationship with their parents, and have friendships outside the home. Both tests were ordered by a criminal court that is also trying the Nunes' case.

Despite national assessments showing abysmal results from the Brazilian public education system, one of the three judges claimed in his written verdict that "the quality of our education is undeniable. If we compare ourselves, for example, average Brazilian citizens with average North American citizens, the conclusion is devastating. North Americans know little...in comparison to Brazilians. Our schooling is, to the contrary, very good in comparison to other countries."

Joao Senna dos Reis, an opinion columnist with the Diario do Aco newspaper, mocked the statement, noting that "a simple official verification that 70% of Brazilians don't know how to read and interpret five lines of banal text represents a shocking confession of how our education system is going."

"At some point the magistrates had to act in bad conscience before invoking absurdities like selling the false image that we have an education system at the level of First World countries," he added. "As we are in December and every kind of list of notable events begins to appear, it won't be a surprise if this court is listed in the category of the best joke of the year."

Cleber Nunes told LifeSiteNews that he intends to appeal the case to the Superior Tribunal of Justice, a federal appeals court, and if necessary he will appeal the case to the Supreme Federal Tribunal, the nation's highest court.

"I don't think the court even wanted to examine the case, just because they don't want more families to do the same (homeschool their children)," Nunes told LifeSiteNews.

"It was clear that the kids are doing well, that there is no intellectual abandonment, but they keep defending their position, defending the law and forgetting that the focus of the law is the children," he said.

From Brazil to America: A Message from Julio Severo to US Pro-Lifers

From Brazil to America: A Message from Julio Severo to US Pro-Lifers

How US pro-abortion groups have invested heavily in Brazil, strengthening the pro-abortion movement, funding groups and training Brazilian young men and women for pro-abortion and anti-family activities virtually unopposed by their American pro-family counterparts

By Julio Severo

In 1986 I was for the first time challenged to question my weak Christian assumptions on life, family and social action. After this challenge, my life changed. Of course, he who performed such change was Jesus Christ, but he used some ways to inspire me.

Without such inspiration, I would be bound to have an increasingly stronger socialist mindset on life, family and social action, because in Brazil socialist indoctrination is widespread and inescapable, especially through public schools and media, and I was a victim of both.

With such inspiration, I saw that there was a larger universe of important issues involving life, family and social action and a solid Christian worldview that was generally unavailable in Brazil.

Such inspiration came from my contact with excellent Christian pro-life literature from the US.

Yet, I was not the only Brazilian receiving inspiration from America. I came to know that, many years before my first contact with the US pro-life message in 1986, Brazil had been receiving massive influence from pro-death America. Ford and McArthur Foundations, and many other American institutions have been for decades inspiring and funding the pro-abortion and pro-sodomy engineering in Brazil.

In 1992, I received a copy of a 1974 White House paper (National Security Study Memorandum 200) detailing the US role and interest in worldwide population control through monumental investments. Then I visited the UN office in Brasilia, Brazil, where God gave me access to many important papers on population issues. These papers proved a vast US involvement in the funding of Brazilian liberal organizations, projects and programs.

Today, Brazil faces huge pro-abortion and pro-sodomy challenges by groups that have been inspired and funded by pro-death America. Brazil also faces challenges by Brazilians that have been trained in pro-abortion America. The most vocal pro-abortion leaders in Brazil got their official training through scholarships in the US. These scholarships draw many Brazilians.

Recently, the homosexual media in Brazil published an ad from the Ford Foundation offering scholarships in sexual education and other sexual issues in the US. The young men and women receiving them will be the coming liberal leaders in Brazil.

Brazilian pro-lifers are powerless to stop well-funded abortion and gay groups in Brazil, and likewise they are powerless to stop US dollars from being poured out into Brazil to build a pro-abortion and pro-sodomy Brazilian culture.

Alone, Brazil cannot stop the colossal barrage of financial, ideological, political and cultural attacks coming from US against the Brazilian legal system and culture.

Therefore, as a pro-life combatant for more than 20 years in Brazil, I ask the help from my American pro-life brothers and sisters.

Ten years ago, when the threat of anti-“homophobia” laws was non-existent in Brazil and when we had no federal program “Brazil without Homophobia”, my book O Movimento Homossexual (The Homosexual Movement) was published by the Brazilian branch of Bethany House Publishers, exposing the intentions of the gay agenda for Brazil. By my knowledge on what the gay agenda was doing in America, I was able to warn about what was going to happen to Brazil, because the US always exports its wickedness to Brazil. Today, the federal program “Brazil without Homophobia” is a reality — since 2004.

Sadly, what was predicted in my book eventually was fulfilled, even previsions of gay persecutions against Christians, where I have become one of its victims myself. The leader of the Brazilian homosexual movement — who is a adviser to Brazilian president Lula and has made public pro-pedophilia statements — and the largest gay group in Brazil have filed charges against me. Now, because of my articles against the gay agenda, federal prosecutors want to shut down my known blog and silence my voice.

Because of my correct predictions in my book The Homosexual Movement, I am today considered a “prophet” by many in Brazil. Not by chance, I am the author of the recent book Orações Proféticas (Prophetic Prayers, which needs to be published in the US).

Now, my vision points out that the most important need is for American pro-lifers to adopt Brazil and, as their US pro-abortion and pro-sodomy counterparts, invest in Brazil, fund the establishment of Brazilian pro-family groups and help to train Brazilian young men and women in pro-family activities.

I have many dreams for helping Brazil myself and I have also a dream about a short documentary about the US, but I cannot do it without the assistance of my American friends. I cannot do it alone.

I need your support and involvement.

Blood in the Rivers: the Contraceptive Culture and Prophecies in Revelation


Blood in the Rivers: the Contraceptive Culture and Prophecies in Revelation

By Julio Severo
In the early times of the human race, Cain killed Abel and buried him, and the Bible tells that Abel’s blood cried out from the ground. The murder of Abel would not go unpunished or forgotten.             
In the end times, the Bible tells that rivers, seas and the fountains of water would “become blood as of a dead man” (Revelation 16:3-4), explaining that because of the shedding of innocent blood (see Revelation 16:5-6) judgment shall come.
From the beginning to the end, the Bible makes it clear that no murder of innocents goes unpunished, because blood cries out for justice.
Regardless the kind of interpretation one chooses to apply to the Revelation account for blood in rivers, the fact is if Abel’s blood meant a life unjustly annihilated, then blood in rivers represents a multitude of unjustly annihilated lives.
Even if the Bible had no prophecy about blood in rivers, the reality is that there is much blood in the rivers. Life has been discarded in rivers, and no one cares. Innocent blood has been discarded in rivers, and no one pays attention.
Today, rivers became not only latrine, but also deposits of annihilated lives. Hundreds of millions of women use pills and other birth-control devices that provoke micro-abortions that end flushed in toilets, into rivers.

Micro-aborted children: Who cares?

How many users of “the pill” know that hormonal contraception not only prevents conception, but also prevents a newly-conceived embryo from implanting in the mother’s uterus? A new human being, too tiny to see, dies of hunger, and is flushed out of his mother’s body with her next menstrual cycle. The contraceptive pill not only represents the refusal of God’s gift of new life, but it actively destroys it.
The current generation was conditioned not to know or care that one of the functions of contraception is to provoke imperceptible micro-abortions. (To understand the way IUD and hormonal methods annihilate recently-conceived lives in the womb, see here: http://www.epm.org/artman2/publish/prolife_birth_control_pill/A_Longer_Condensation_of_Does_The_Birth_Control_Pill_Cause_Abortions.shtml)
The current generation lives a planned and conditioned life, where the priority is material comfort and pleasure. In that reality, children become burdens and hindrances. With contraception, they become options and disposable items, where governments and individuals impose controls and limitations.
In an age of planning, it is easy to discard human life. Even those that are called Christians use the same worldly means spilling innocent blood into rivers.
Is not the Bible correct when it says that the people of God suffer destruction because they lack knowledge? How many, among the people of God, know that Margaret Sanger (1879-1966), who coined the term “birth control”, had strong connections to New Age, socialism and sexual depravity? Sanger was behind the invention of the modern birth-control pill.
In her first essay, The Woman Rebel, she confessed, “Birth control appeals to the advanced radical because it is calculated to undermine the authority of the Christian churches. I look forward to seeing humanity free someday of the tyranny of Christianity no less than Capitalism”. [1]

Human reproduction aimed by esotericism and Nazism

Before World War 2, Sanger had close contacts with Nazi Germany officials, because the Nazi system of total planning and control was much more open to her ideas of total control over human reproduction. While Sanger struggled to promote the controversial conceit of birth control in the US, in Germany there was no opposition. Nazism welcomed the family-planning ideology promoted by Sanger. With its vision brutally based on the evolution theory, the Nazi government saw birth control as a normal component of its policy of planning and control over the human “animal”.
In Nazi Germany, medicine was at the service of the “collective well-being” ideology. Any measure was acceptable to reach a greater benefit. “Unfit” lives could be sacrificed, if the result was to improve the life quality of productive human beings… So Nazism was not different from Communism in that it helped to inspire the modern materialistic culture, where so-called science and technological advance ignore ethics or the intrinsic value of human life.
Even though modern governments do not impose all the Nazi policies of social control, the role and effort by governments in the indoctrination of the masses so that they may live according to contraceptive planning is undeniable. Nazism died, but government intentions of control over reproduction have not died.
However, besides the sheer technological planning over humans and their reproduction, there is the spiritual factor. Before Margaret Sanger, Annie Besant (1847-1933), the known British theosophist, distributed leaflets teaching couples how to have fewer children. No, she did not work in pagan Africa or pagan India, but in the mostly Protestant England. With her new ideology, Besant preached that smaller families were a blessing.
Besant, whose work influenced Sanger, had come from an unsuccessful marriage with an Anglican priest, next getting involved with socialism, theosophy, New Age and lesbianism. But so-called Protestant England did not care about her lesbianism, or her occultism or that in the Bible God tells that children are blessings and that blessed is the man that has his quiver full of children.
The ideology of Besant, with all its consequences, prevailed over the superficial Christianity of the English people. The heresy of Besant did not begin in the Christian churches and it did not hit firstly the Christian churches. Besant’s aim was a place untouchable by the church pulpits: the Christian marriage bed. From this intimacy far away from pulpits an ideology was spread that eventually swallowed the truth from the pulpits, throwing into oblivion the Bible idea that bigger families are big blessings.

Blood-costing family planning

The result is that the current generation, including most Christians, trust in the technological devices of contraception the same way the German people trusted in the technology and social planning of Nazi Germany and the same way the Soviet people trusted the state planning of the communist Soviet Union. Both socialist systems preached the contraceptive “religion”.
The result is that the current generation, including most Christians, plans its families looking for material comfort and pleasure, not perceiving that its contraceptive planning produces micro-abortions, filling rivers with innocent blood.
Nazism, communism, socialism and every ideology of social control usurp the role of authority of God over societies. Birth control, also known as family planning, usurps the role of authority of God over the increase of families. The result of both types of planning is bloodshed.

Socialism, UN and IPPF take aim at human reproduction

It is no accident that Sanger founded in India (the same India venerated by esoteric mystics as Besant) the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), the largest and oldest abortion organization in the world. Today, UN and IPPF work together to implant policies of contraceptive planning in the nations. Those organizations see abortion and homosexuality not as murder and perversion, but as unalienable human rights. Such work is perfectly tuned to the goals and dispositions of the socialist ideology.
In the vision of Besant, Sanger, socialism, UN and IPPF, contraception is the rejection of the unfit and the acceptance of the theosophical, technological, Nazi and socialist planning over human reproduction. In the Bible vision, contraception is the rejection of the planning of God over the married sexual life, in a modern autonomy where individual independence is proudly preached — at the cost of God, but never at the cost of the State.

Illusory rights and freedom at the cost of blood

The contraceptive culture asserts the right of men and women to be free from all divine planning in their lives, but it is never open for them to be free from hidden state planning. At the end, with so many acquired rights — sexual rights, reproductive rights, etc. —, the individual is intoxicated by the illusion that, living under the contraceptive planning of UN, State and theosophical efforts, he is free.
The illusory freedom offered by hormonal contraception has cost lives that are technologically hindered and rejected from a natural and just refuge in the womb. The uterus of the modern woman, by the will of high social planners, became a little Nazi death camp, where the conceived life, forced into a micro-abortive contraceptive program, is immediately discarded. It is the state and theosophical planning invading the sanctuary of life and bringing destruction.
Who could imagine that in the last days he that came to rob, kill and destroy would be able to promote his offers through a propaganda defending pleasure, freedom, material comfort and even family well-being? In the altar of the technological and scientific god, wombs have been “dedicated” and lives have been sacrificed. Behind the mask, this god is nothing more than Baal and other pagan gods that always required the same sacrifices of the new generations. It is the same god, with different masks, but with the same thirst for innocent blood.
Sin always tends to lead to more sin. The countries that first welcomed birth control were also the first ones to legalize abortion. The nations today that have the highest rates of contraception are exactly the nations where abortion became a right as sacred as was considered sacred the right of the past savage pagans to sacrifice new-born babies to their gods. The difference is that the new bloodthirsty gods are respected by their cloak of scientific sophistication.
In the historic pagan religions, the male priest was predominantly homosexual. By sheer coincidence, the most contraceptive nations are also fervently pro-sodomy. The contraceptive “religion” revived, in a sophisticated and “scientific” way, paganism, where its homosexual priesthood and sacrifice of babies were sacred. The “right” to sodomy and abortion is sacred today in the contraceptive countries. Only coincidence?

The contraceptive “religion” versus the pro-life culture of the Kingdom of God

The United States, Europe and United Nations are exporting and imposing the contraceptive “religion” throughout the world. No religion today has more adherents and faithful observers than the religion of contraception. In fact, the contraceptive religion has strong presence in the mainline world religions, as Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism and it has been gradually penetrating Islamism as well.
As in the case of Freemasonry, the contraceptive religion permeates world religions as a parasite, but the Masonic religion is losing in numbers and strength in relation to its contraceptive rival.
Even though they penetrate all religions, Freemasonry and the contraceptive religion are unable to make the smallest infiltration in the Kingdom of God.
The culture of the Kingdom of God is pro-life, pro-conception, pro-children and pro-family and it is totally against abortion, micro-abortion and homosexual and other sterile and perverted sex relations. Yet, those that reject that culture are not forced to resort to abortion or micro-abortive contraceptive methods. They do not need to fill rivers with blood. Those that reject children as blessings of God may choose sterilization, which does not provoke abortion or micro-abortion.
For men and women attuned to the Kingdom of God culture, children are blessings and each new birth is as if it were a Christmas, making a family bigger and richer.
Christmas, which is commemorated as the birthday of Jesus Christ, is a time of joy and happiness. The Word of God, which is light in the midst of the contraceptive darkness imposed by theosophy, UN and socialism, says that, as Mary welcomed the baby Jesus in her womb, so every woman that open herself fully to her maternal role is receiving not only a little child, but also the presence of Jesus himself. Jesus says:
“Whoever welcomes a child in my name welcomes me. Whoever welcomes me welcomes not me but the one who sent me”. (Mark 9:37)
The joy and happiness of Christmas are multiplied with each birth that you welcome in the name of Jesus. When a Christian woman welcomes her maternal mission in the name of Jesus, she is welcoming not only a baby that comes as a gift planned by God, but also more power from the Kingdom of God. The God that planned the sexual and reproductive life of Mary knows well how to plan the size and number of his blessings for each womb and family, whenever he is given opportunity.
The beautiful example of Mary contrasts sharply with modern examples, where wombs are closed to the full extent of the blessings of God and are open to the contraceptive illusion, with all its micro-abortive consequences filling rivers with blood.

Blood, justice and judgment

Does the bloodshed of annihilated lives by hormonal contraception and dumped in rivers have some relation with the bloody rivers told in Revelation? We do not know it.
What we know is that there is a real apocalyptic scenario of hundreds of millions women that, knowingly or not, micro-abort by contraception their recently-conceived babies. Next, with a mere flush, those tiny micro-aborted babies end in rivers, transforming them into rivers of blood.
What we know also is that Revelation makes it clear that judgment shall come. And thousands of years ago the Bible explained that the shedding of innocent blood causes the land to be polluted:
“You shall not pollute the land in which you live, for blood pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of the one who shed it”. (Numbers 35:33 ESV)
As it happened in the phenomenal technological and scientific advance of Nazi Germany, the cost of modern progress of technology and science in human reproduction is delusion and shedding of innocent blood. Hormonal contraception has transformed modern, sexually active men and women into shedders of innocent blood, leaving society under the curse of uncountable number of murders that shall bring judgment.
Where are the prophets to warn the society about the consequences of its acts?
Where are the prophets to warn about the deceits of contraception?
Where are the prophets to warn that innocent blood spilled cries out for justice and exposes the whole society to destruction and judgment?

Battle against pedophilia in Brazil: a state Trojan horse against “homophobia” and “religious intolerance”?

Battle against pedophilia in Brazil: a state Trojan horse against “homophobia” and “religious intolerance”?

Effort against pedophilia may eventually strengthen groups and measures against “homophobia” and “religious intolerance”

By Julio Severo

The 3rd World Congress against Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from November 25 to 28, 2008, was successful, but not in the exclusive sense that the Brazilian government will enforce zero tolerance to sex criminals against children. Punishments for TV channels in friendship with the State that broadcast immorality day and night? No way!

Even though the congress has been introduced to the public as an initiative to bring an end to pedophilia crimes, apparently the government saw it as an opportunity to strengthen its own agenda.

According to O Estado de S. Paulo newspaper, during the 3rd World Congress against Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents, SaferNet signed an agreement with the Special Secretariat of Human Rights of the Brazilian Republic’s Presidency (the creator and chief implementing agency for the Brazil without Homophobia federal program) and the federal police to establish an integrated central to address charges of online crimes. By such measure, the Brazilian federal police will have immediate access to the SaferNet database to investigate charges. Daily, six federal police experts will analyze charges received by the Safernet website.

SaferNet, a fairly mysterious Brazilian NGO whose slogan is “Protecting Human Rights on Internet”, receives 2.5 thousand complaints daily, where 63% deal with pedophilia, and the rest involves “homophobia”, religious intolerance and racism.

With the government and federal police partnership, SaferNet will make a mapping of crimes against human rights committed on internet, whose data will help the Brazilian government to formulate public policies.

Even though at first the agreement addresses only pedophilia, the SaferNet operations are not limited only to this issue. For SaferNet, disrespect to human rights does not apply only to cases of pedophilia on internet, but also to cases of “homophobia” (a politically-correct label used against any individual expressing a philosophical, moral or Christian view contrary to the gay agenda) and of “religious intolerance” (a term used with broad and questionable interpretation in Brazil, where a Christian may be charged merely for expressing a view contrary to the gods of the Brazilian witchcraft religions).

An honest government attitude would be to seek the support from a reliable NGO dealing exclusively with child pornography. Yet, the astute State chose to strengthen a NGO that is also involved in issues of strong state interest, such as the battle against “homophobia” and “religious intolerance”. So by strengthening SaferNet to fight child pornography, the State is cleverly strengthening it to fight better in other areas too.

For the time being, the basic mission of SaferNet, according to its president Thiago Tavares, will help federal police in the search of internet criminals in the area of pedophilia. But SaferNet will keep receiving charges in the area of “homophobia” and “religious intolerance”, monitoring and tracking such activities and waiting for the “go ahead” from the government to proceed directly with federal police against people posting on the internet texts contrary to the homosexual agenda and the gods of the Brazilian witchcraft religions.

Safernet will not need to wait long to advance in its other specialties. Recently, an Afro-Brazilian Pentecostal minister, who spoke against the gods of a Brazilian witchcraft religion, was denounced by a prosecutor for “religious intolerance”, and likewise a known Catholic priest, by the action of another prosecutor, had his book against witchcraft confiscated in Bahia, Brazil. In the “homophobia” issue, my Portuguese blog was shut down on July 2007 because Google in Brazil had received many complaints from homosexual activists. Since 2006, gay militants regularly use the SaferNet website to denounce Blog Julio Severo.

The support from the Lula administration for the approval of “anti-homophobia” bills has been facing resistance from Catholics and evangelicals. But that resistance dies and turns into secured support when Lula and his government ask for assistance to fight pedophilia, because Christians are completely against that crime. In fact, even Senator Magno Malta, who showed a brilliant opposition to PLC 122/2006 — a terrible anti-“homophobia” bill representing a way to impose a homosexual dictatorship in Brazil —, established the Congressional Investigative Committee against Pedophilia, which in July 2008 gave to SaferNet the opportunity to sign an agreement with federal prosecutors for a suspicious surveillance operation on internet. Evangelical Malta swallowed the Trojan horse as a fish would swallow bait.

Because of its controversial agenda threatening the security and the free-speech rights of Christians, SaferNet is not the right organization to deal with so serious subject as human rights on internet. However, similar lack of seriousness was not shown by Christian parliamentarians in the Brazilian Congress, whose representatives Henrique Afonso, Miguel Martini, João Campos and Pedro Ribeiro filed charges against the Ministry of Health for publishing and distributing in the public schools “material with clear pornographic content and introducing positive declarations and defense for the use and consumption of drugs”.

In their charge, the representatives denounce:

“About sexually transmitted diseases, the [government] book has drawings of people having (vaginal, anal e oral) sex. The drawings are provocative and horrible and, in our view, a real defense of pornography. When addressing anal sex, a figure shows a homosexual relation, this is, two men in the position of anal sexual relation. When addressing oral sex, the figures present two women showing the use of their tongues in the sexual relation”.

Next, they explain:

“We understand that there was no need to produce drawings of the different sexual relations to help students understand them. The figures, seen by children and adolescents, provoke impact and divert attention from the educational content. To expose children and adolescents to this kind of material is considered by psychologists and specialists a form of sexual abuse and is a far cry from the goal to educate”.

If sexual exploitation of children is a crime, then why does the Brazilian government throw gas on the fire of pornography in the public schools? After provoking a conflagration, the government seeks, with the SaferNet assistance, for other culprits, except for the State itself.

The 3rd World Congress against Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents, which should have strengthened exclusively the battle against pedophilia, not only favored Safernet in its broad and questionable agenda, but also left President Lula feeling comfortable to avoid the responsibility of his own administration on the psychological abuse of the public-school children’s sexuality. Instead of looking at the sexual exploitation his administration has been doing against public students, Lula preferred criticizing the “religious hypocrisy” regarding the sex education of children.

So Christians that do not cooperate by throwing gas on the child sexuality are accused of “hypocrisy” by the most holy Lula. Similar state schizophrenia happened when Lula launched in July 2007 his campaign to demonize as violence the parental right to use corporal discipline on their children. For his anti-family, anti-spanking campaign, Lula chose as his partner actress Xuxa, who participated in a 1982 pornographic movie, where she entices a 12-year boy. (The adjacent picture shows Xuxa with the 12-year boy on the bed.) This same administration, which distributes pornographic books in the public schools, now intends to fight pedophilia…

Emperor Nero, who persecuted Christians, burned Rome and next, laughing, he threw the fault on Christians. There is no doubt that the clever maneuvers to implant laws against “homophobia” and “religious intolerance” represent the mounting of a modern scheme to persecute Christians. Yet, no one imagined the Lula administration could use the battle against pedophilia as a Trojan horse. By criticizing the “religious hypocrisy” in the issue of sex education for children and by exempting his own administration, Lula throws on Christians the fault for the sexual conflagration that has been leading the Brazilian society to follies and crimes against children and adolescents.
