The Grand Design Exposed Chapter 4 Martin Luther — A Man Used of God

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

By a recent decree, an indulgence had been promised by the pope to all who should ascend upon their knees “Pilate’s staircase”, said to have been descended by Christ on leaving the Roman judgment hall, and to have been miraculously conveyed from Jerusalem to Rome. One day Luther was devoutly climbing these steps, when suddenly a voice like thunder seemed to say to him, “The just shall live by faith”. (Romans 1:17) He sprang to his feet, and hastened from the place, in shame and dismay. That text never lost its power upon his soul. From that time he saw more clearly than ever before the fallacy of trusting to human works for salvation, and the necessity of constant faith in the merits of Christ.

The Grand Design Exposed Chapter 3 Rome — Implacable Enemy of God’s Truth — Reason for Reformers’ Cries

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

Rome, from its earliest history, has always been the implacable enemy of God’s truth, from its decree to crucify Jesus Christ, to sending early Christians to their deaths in the coliseum arena of ravenous lions. It was that same ‘Sun’ worship system of religion, that had been originally concocted in Babylon. Anciently, it had come to Rome in fragments and was known historically as Pagan Rome. But later, as the Imperial Roman Empire collapsed and Papal Rome took its place, Babylonian Sun Worship manifested itself in an almost pure and radical form. And even though today it has lost the power to have one executed for not conforming to its doctrines, it is still the same, and is called the ‘Roman’ Catholic (universal) Church.

The Grand Design Exposed Chapter 1 Manufactured Crises — A Plot For World Change

James Japan avatarPosted on by 2

Without question, the world today is in quite a predicament. Certainly, never before in the history of our planet, has it ever been so greatly stressed upon mankind’s consciousness the overwhelming ills that are facing our world. The urging of these continued reports seem to leave us in no doubt, that if we as a world, do not get our act together, it may be too late. The fact is, they tell us, that our world is facing a crisis hour, approaching its final destiny. We must act ‘universally’ now, if we are to avert a world-wide catastrophe. So they say.

The Divine Programme of The World’s History Chapter VII. The Christian Programme – Part V. The Apocalyptic Section of the Programme

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

This last book of the Bible consists almost entirely of an apocalypse of the future; that is, of what was future in the days when Domitian was reigning in Rome, and John suffering under his cruel tyranny in the lonely island of Patmos.

The Divine Programme of The World’s History Chapter VII. The Christian Programme – Part IV.

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

The Apostle John represents this apostate Church as corrupting the nations of the earth, and its head as ruling over them. He represents the woman as sitting upon “many waters,” and the angel explains that the waters are “peoples and nations.” He represents her also as sitting on and upborne by the Roman beast—another expression of the same thing.

The Ecumenical Return to Rome Movement Exposed

James Japan avatarPosted on by 3

Not too many years ago, some evangelical Protestants got together, Chuck Colson and some others, Bill Bright and some others, and they met with some Roman Catholics and they came up with a document called “Evangelicals and Catholics Together.” And in that document they celebrated a common faith and a common mission. They said we need to embrace each other and carry out this gospel mission together. This was shocking, to put it mildly, to many – to all of those people who affirm clearly a Biblical gospel.

C. S. Lewis: A Bridge to Rome

James Japan avatarPosted on by 2

In my research to try to figure out how Protestant theology has become corrupted and influenced by Roman Catholic dogmas, I have realized influential authors are part of the reason. C. S. Lewis is certainly an influential author and is acclaimed by Protestant evangelicals. But some things he wrote make me wonder if he really based his faith in the Word of God and the Jesus of the New Testament.

What history books don’t tell you about the American Civil War

James Japan avatarPosted on by 2

“It is Rome who wants to rule and degrade the North, as she has ruled and degraded the South, from the very day of its discovery. There are only very few of the Southern leaders who are not more or less under the influence of the Jesuits through their wives, family relations, and their friends. Several members of the family of Jeff Davis belong to the Church of Rome….” – Abraham Lincoln

When you study the facts documented in the article below, you will understand that it is imperative that you disapprove of Pope Francis and the Roman Church. No matter how cleverly Romanism is presented, to accept the Church of Rome as a genuine Christian church is mortally dangerous.

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

Since the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the ultimate triumph of the seed of the woman has, in spite of all appearances to the contrary, been a settled question; and the final issue becomes continually clearer in the light of the actual course of mundane events.

Rome Stoops to Conquer, by E. Boyd Barrett

James Japan avatarPosted on by 2

Does the Church intend, should the power be hers, to change and modify the Constitution? Does she mean to discard the American principle of the separation of Church and State? Does she aim at being the established church of the United States? One cannot doubt, in view of the present Pope’s teaching, which indeed is simply the reiteration of age-old Catholic doctrine, that the answers should all be in the affirmative.

The Papal System – XXXVIII. The Scriptures

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

What a strange sight the Church of Christ presents, in banishing the Bible from her schools, colleges, and churches! This is not the Church of Jerome, who spent so much time and toil in perfecting and translating a Bible in the vulgar tongue. Nor of the early fathers, who made translations for every country where the gospel was received. The Church of the Bible-haters, which has burned Bibles and those who translated them, and myriads who read them, had no representatives in Christ’s day, nor for centuries afterward.

The Papal System – XXXVI. Roman Catholics Who Were Worthy Of All Honor

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

We have known true men among Roman Catholics, and women of honor and kindness, for whom our respect was spontaneous, and our friendship real. We have met them in humble life, and we have seen them elsewhere. And we have often found them good citizens, and kind friends. Our trouble is with their religious system, not with them; and with their leaders, who would use that vast network—the Romish scheme—to destroy the Protestant religion, and the liberties of men.

The most dangerous of men are those who appear very religious, especially when they are organized and in a position of authority. They have the deep respect of the people who are ignorant of their ungodly push for power behind the scenes.

The Papal System – XXX. The Catholic Church and Public Education

James Japan avatarPosted on by  

Continued from XXIX. The Family and Public Worship, and the Books of Protestants. In a republic like our own, the education of the people is a great public necessity. Intelligence will not change a heart naturally wicked, but it qualifies a man to judge for himself, and renders it impossible for him so easily to be made the dupe of agitators political or sacerdotal (Catholic clergy). The ignorant march in … Continue reading →
