Hi John.
I wanted to tell you that I was blessed by your blog on “Not Interfering” this morning.
First of all, just the fact that we have real food to spiritually eat, on a regular basis is a blessing in itself. But secondly, to have Jesus talk to us, and guide us out of Christianity is something to praise God for, and to be very thankful for. Who is hearing it?? Can’t find them.
I certainly do pray that we can have a part in passing along some of these things to God’s children somehow. It seems like we are gathering truth here for a certain moment in time, and it also seems like that time is faster and faster approaching where what Jesus has given us is all the more relevant, but not any more understood.
I can see in the news how nations and kings are turning on the Israel/Jews in this hour. But I have not seen much in the way of kings and people turning on Catholicism too much… at least yet. it will be interesting how that plays out.
It’s amazing that what God says will happen, never fails. We just haven’t seen it all come to pass yet. Anyway, thanks again for these things. It’s good to think on them and ask Jesus to keep our hearts inclined to seek Him, so we can stay ready as events become clearer.

Do Not Interfere
Revelation 17
- Then one of the seven angels who had the Seven Vials came, and he spoke to me, saying, “Come. I will show you the judgment of the Great Whore who sits on many waters,
- with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and by the wine of her whoredom are the inhabitants of the earth made drunk.”
- So, he carried me away in spirit into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored Beast that was full of blasphemous names and that had seven heads and ten horns.
- And the woman was arrayed in purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold, and precious stone, and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup that was full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication,
- and on her forehead was written a name: “Mystery: Babylon the Great, the Mother of harlots and the abominations of the earth.”
- And I saw the woman drunk on the blood of the saints, on the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great wonder.
- And the angel said to me, “Why do you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the Beast that carries her, that has seven heads and ten horns.
. . . .
- And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings one hour with the Beast.
- These are of one mind, and they give their power and authority to the Beast.”
. . . .
- Then he said to me, “The waters that you saw, where the Whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and languages.
- And the ten horns that you saw, and the Beast, these will hate the Whore, and they will make her desolate and naked, and they will eat her flesh and consume her with fire.
- For God put it in their hearts to carry out His plan, to have one mind, and to give their kingdom to the Beast until the words of God be fulfilled.”
The Great Whore is the institution called the Roman Universal Church, and her harlot daughters are Protestant churches, for they came from her and carry her spiritual DNA. All together, they make up the religion known as Christianity, a religion that has been highly honored for many centuries by “peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and languages”. The Roman Church in particular has through the centuries been afforded special privileges by earthly governments, such as exemptions from taxes and public service, which have helped enrich the fallen woman. Human government is the Beast that has carried her since the fourth century AD, when backslidden believers crawled into bed with Rome, and earthly government will culminate in a Satan-empowered man called the Beast, who will rule the whole world. But in John’s vision of the future, he saw that the Beast and his kings are going to turn on the Great Whore and plunder her of the enormous wealth she has accumulated over the centuries.
At that time, there will seem to be but two choices: (1) support the Beast and his kings in their brutal treatment of the Roman Church or (2) try to help the Roman Church. Do not fall for the pressure to do either! As the angel told John, “God put it in their hearts to carry out His plan.” Yes, the Beast and his kings have been chosen and anointed by God to rid the earth of that Church, and it will be foolish for anyone to try to prevent that from happening.
The body of Christ is neither the Roman Church nor any of her daughters. Just as the Beast is an evil ruler of men, so Christianity is an evil ruler over souls (cf. Rev. 18:9–13), and God will destroy them both. Wise souls will heed God’s voice and get out of the way before He decides to do it.
God was pleading with His children to be wise when John heard a voice from heaven cry out, “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not participate in her sins, and receive of her plagues!” Let us be wise, and leave Christianity now so that we may avoid the awful judgment that God has decreed for it. And let us who remain alive until then not interfere with His terrible work when that time comes.
