"The Word of God is blasphemed by the satanic teaching of the Eucharist, changing the Lord's supper from a memorial observance to a sacrament, a repeated sacrifice of Christ for sin. Every time the words of consecration are used, the natural body and blood of Jesus is mystically present in the form of bread and wine (cannibalism).
The repeated 'sacrifice' denies the finished work of Christ's sacrifice on the cross. If Catholic priests can offer an acceptable sacrifice, then Christ our High Priest is robbed of His glory. It exalts sinful men into the position of mediators between God and men. The elements of bread and wine are exalted to a position of honor and veneration that is not warranted in Scripture.
The round 'cakes' were used in pagan worship in Egypt, where in 1854, an ancient temple in Egypt was discovered with inscriptions showing round cakes on an altar. Above the altar is a large image of the SUN. Near Babain, Egypt is a temple with the sun symbol above its altar with two priests shown worshipping.
In Peru (South America), this same image is worshipped. Even the Israelites, when they fell into Baal worship, set sun-images above their altars. The shape of the Catholic 'host' is influenced by sun-worship. Catholicism is a mixture of paganism, Judaism and Christianity. It is not Biblical and is not of God."

Jeremiah 50:28 The voice of those who flee and escape from the land of Babylon Declares in Zion the vengeance of the Lord our God, The vengeance of His temple.
The word that the Lord spoke against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.
Revelation 18:7 In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, 'I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.' 8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day--death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
Revelation 19:1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: 2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. 3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.
Revelation 18:8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
Jer 51:46 And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumour, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
we have considered the history of the Two Babylons chiefly in detail. Now we are to view them as organised systems. The idolatrous system of the ancient Babylon assumed different phases in different periods of its history. In the prophetic description of the modern Babylon, there is evidently also a development of different powers at different times. Do these two developments bear any typical relation to each other? Yes, they do. When we bring the religious history of the ancient Babylonian Paganism to bear on the prophetic symbols that shadow forth the organised working of idolatry in Rome, it will be found that it casts as much light on this view of the subject as on that which has hitherto engaged our attention. The powers of iniquity at work in the modern Babylon are specifically described in chapters 12 and 13 of the Revelation; and they are as follows:--I. The Great Red Dragon; II. The Beast that comes up out of the sea; III. The Beast that ascendeth out of the earth; and IV. The Image of the Beast. In all these respects it will be found, on inquiry, that, in regard to succession and order of development, the Paganism of the Old Testament Babylon was the exact type of the Paganism of the new.

Everyone lives in their own, self-created "Matrix", if you will.
Period, end of story, hopefully end of thread.

In six pages I have yet to see something posted by Sun Matrix that is worthy of any ATSer's time. Sun Matrix, you are not the first to make claims that religion is flawed (DUH!) and try to draw connections between paganism and things like Christmas (which is all you've managed to accomplish) and you will not be the last. You have not established one iota of credibility. Why should any of us trust you? How about before laying the ground work as you call you, you establish some credibility? After that, why don't you explain to us how your life has been enhanced by seeing past this Sun God, Satan created Matrix? What exactly can you do better/easier then the rest of us? You're not off to a very good start my friend.
Last time I checked the King James version had 1000+ errors in its translation - some minor, some major.
however until then I'd like to know if you believe that the KJV version of the bible is the definitive bible version.
I would also like your opinion as to how a book that was clearly written by man is a clear message sent to the people from Jesus.
For the record I once believed that the bible was the word of God, and that Jesus Christ was his son and our saviour. Recently my views have changed, but my journey to uncovering my truth has really just begun. As it stands now I feel that getting closer to God/Creator begins from within, not without. Belief in the power of my spirit, of my meaning here on Earth, my power to do good things for others is the path to righteousness (for lack of a better phrase). I expect that is an incomplete understanding, but I am never afraid to admit I am wrong.
Matthew 25:14 "For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey. 16 Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17 And likewise he who had received two gained two more also. 18 But he who had received one went and dug in the ground, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.' 21 His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.' 22 He also who had received two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.' 23 His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.' 24 Then he who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.' 26 But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. 27 So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. 28 Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. 29 For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

How can a book written by man accurately predict so many things.
Originally posted by Sun MatrixJimmy, there is no "my truth" when it comes to God. There is only "one truth", Jesus is the Messiah. That's true for me and true for you. It doesn't matter how righteous you are, you cannot be perfect, therefore you need Jesus to enter the kingdom of God.

Originally posted by Sun MatrixThis I know. God is waiting for you to call out with all your heart for the truth. I give you my word, that is all you need do. Call out with all, and I mean all of your heart and ask God to reveal you the truth of his Son who died for the sins of men. Ask Him to help you believe, ask him to save you.
You will find a world that you know nothing about.
There is so much that I would like to tell you and show you. I have only scratched the surface of the world designed to keep you from the truth. I have shown you nothing of the world that is available for you to live in. This world is hidden from you. It is revealed in the Word of God. All things are possible to him who believes.
(does it not also say that only 144,000 are to be saved?)
