called out of the modern Babylonian religious system

[dougj7]

Hi everyone,

I have recently left a Reformed Church so I can have a personal relationship with the Lord.

I thank Christ Jesus for calling me out and opening my eyes so I can understand the scriptures.

Just what is meant by "called out of the modern Babylonian religious system"? I seem to be at a loss here, please explain!

Hi Frank,

The church which I was attending celebrated pagan festivals.

I am well aware of the Restored CofG. The leader, David Pack was in WWCG and formed his own church claiming to follow in the foot steps of HWA. I heard him speak on a number of occasions many years ago. I do not think he was following pagan days as you suggest, just trying to hold Old Covenant statutes commandments and judgements. I hope you look into the truth of Christ's revelation and the "salvation of all". More to say if you want me to give you more info.

Hi Joe,

I only provided the links to the articles on rcg.org because I thought they provided a valid explanation of the pagan feasts and how they made their way into some religions.

I don't follow the teachings or belong to any church organization, but I still consider some of the articles they provide useful to learn from.

As far as my beliefs go, I believe Jesus tasted death for the sake of everyone. Heb. 2:9

Thank you for your kind offer in regards to more info, but my faith is growing every day through reading the scriptures.

CLV 1Ti 4:10 (for for this are we toiling and being reproached), that we rely on the living God, Who is the Saviour of all mankind, especially of believers.

CLV 1Ti 4:11 These things be charging and teaching.

Regards, Doug

Understood. Keep up the good fight.

That's awesome! May you always be very blessed in your pursuit of Him and by always and ever "abiding in His Word" - "you are my disciples indeed if you abide in My Word"

I think many churches have gone the wrong way by annulling the Word of God, agreeing with man's theory as to our origins, which we have not seen the full fruit of yet, but a great falling away is occurring, especially young folks are leaving Christianity in droves.. (Of course that grievous insult "hell" makes it hard to be a believer also!). But making God's Word (Genesis) to be myth has caused the falling away. This delusion turned Christendom on its ear, and still is..

But whereas the gates of hell did not topple her, the great delusion of the false prophet (a white smocked magician and worker of modern miracles, which embraced a false prophet who began as a man, designed 13:13 and soon 16,17)

As to $iTy Babylon (or more specifically her forehead/psyche) is responsible "for all slain upon earth" that would be since Cain slew Abel, and it is all untruth/all babble, which babbles on and on.. (worse than i do) and the last days untruth/empire/the harlot, embraced harlotry -- ("harlot" the greek ='s "pornos"and "to sell") and has enchanted, seduced and beguiled all nations, and seven continents, "the kings are in bed with her" and she made the merchants wealthy by her charms/pornos. (Now we simply await one more Caesar type "king/priest" in man's origins vein of "man is the higher power"; one who at one time? was in the office which did 13:13 in 1945 - but that particular windy fire has been paused for a time, when the pause is over, albeit limited, then is when the 7the seal is opened and things escalate!!)
Sorry, I cannot seem to control myself! God bless, and welcome to Tentmaker forums! :hiya:  Don't worry! if you didn't understand all that. It only took me a minute or so to write it.. God bless..

Yes, inquiring minds want to know, and, and, and, welcome, dougj7!  :friendstu:

Welcome DougJ7

You will find many wonderful nuggets of truth at TentMaker.

May the Spirit of Truth reveal to you all things. I love this; " Ask and it shall be given, Seek and ye shall find, Knock and the door will be opened".

Whole lot of knocking going on. Jesus also said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock..." So if he is knocking at the door, and we are knocking at the door, somebody should probably open the door! Oh yeah, Jesus is also the door. :banana:

Again, welcome.
