Pagan Christianity Part 2

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 10:19-25
The authors tell you “Reading this book takes courage” not because of its contents, but what you must do after you read it. I say it takes perseverance to wade through the misconceptions they’ve given, because the book is a smokescreen for a new spiritual fad and fads are wrought with bait and hook. They are not fishers of men, but poachers. If you’re already disgruntled with whatever typical church is out there, then this is an easy excuse to find not only an alternative church, but an alternative Jesus. Or maybe you’ll just drop out of being a Christian altogether.
After they put a burden of guilt upon you, you are primed for the next step of participating in spontaneous anarchy in the name of “the Church.” The point of this review is not to make a big deal about the origin of church practices and how we worship, but to warn you of how our faith can be undermined by an even more hideous hyper-apostasy than churchianity, which calls itself “organic,” as if that makes it pure as the driven snow.
The church or ecclesia must be understood in the context of race. If the race card is not played, then you have a stacked deck. In other words, if the relevance of Israel in the Bible is trivialized with universalism, then the church itself is corrupted.

And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

Fishbein vs Hoxsey
by Pastor Don Elmore
June 9, 2013
Scripture Reading: Psalms 104:14-15 “He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth; And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheth man’s heart.”
I must have been asleep when this battle took place, as I was alive when a lot of it happened. It lasted for over 25 years and I still was not aware of it occurring. It began before I was born, and it fought on when I was in elementary, middle, and high school. It was a major case, and I didn’t learn of it until a couple of months ago.
The two men who fought against each other, Fishbein and Hoxsey, were from different stock. 
Fishbein was a jew and Hoxsey an Israelite. Fishbein flunked anatomy class in college, never completed his internship class and was never a doctor—he never had any patients whatsoever.
Hoxsey only went to the eighth grade and then he dropped out of school. He was a coal miner in Illinois, where his grandfather had been a farmer. His grandfather had a stallion that was his favorite. It got cancer in its right hoof, and the veterinarian said that it should be destroyed. Instead, John Hoxsey, his grandfather, who was a Quaker, decided to let his favorite horse go into the pasture and enjoy his final days.
The horse began to go into one area of the pasture and ate certain herbs that he never had eaten before. And as he did so, he surprisingly got better and better. Soon the horse recovered completely and the tumor sloughed away.

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 55:6-11
I received a copy of this book in the mail from our Australian friend, Hank Roelofs of Christian Identity Ministries. Evidently, it is causing some controversy over there and here as an idea that is either loved or hated; and he had an uncomfortable feeling about it and asked if I would review it. While the book purports to support 1st century Christianity (and guess what? So do I, but not the way they do), Hank said it seemed to have the odor of rebellion (citing Korah, Dathan and Abiram in Numbers 16, which we will look at later on). He suspects a rather effective disruption to Christian thought through the wedge of ‘divide and conquer,’ but couldn’t quite put his finger on it. I think I can point the fickle finger of fate to these authors who have written a book paved with good intentions and where that road leads to.
The most important thing I could ascertain from this book is that it was void of the same thing it was chastising i.e. the modern church and that is identifying the people for whom the Bible was written and what their responsibilities are.
The Grandson of Esau

Scripture Reading: Genesis 26:34-35
While reading some of the New Covenant Messengers of the past, I became interested in the bible study notes that were written by my friend, Steve B. of Knoxville, Tennessee. I used his study, published 15 years ago, for many of the facts brought in this message.
It was a bible study that dealt with Amalek. Who was he? Genesis, chapter 36 gives us the answer. This chapter is all about the genealogy of Esau. It tells of the early family tree of Esau. Esau had four wives; three of them are mentioned in Genesis 36.
Esau married at first two Canaanite women (Adah and Aholibamah) and later, after being rebuked by his father and mother, he then married two Ishmaelite women.
Isaac had instructed his twin brother NOT to marry any Canaanite women (Genesis 28:6b). He then journeyed to Syria to find himself a wife from his mother’s family. Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father so he went and married a daughter of Ishmael.
A Sad Departure
The Wake-up Herald
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof.
