Volume 16, Issue 2
Dear Friends,
Change can be fun, but it can also be very
stressful. In this issue, we will examine change that is not pleasant.
The United States Supreme Court decided on June 26, 2013 that marriage
as God designed it when He created Adam and Eve needed to be updated.
These mortal men and women appointed to the Supreme Court overruled God
and stated that marriage also includes homosexuals, men marrying men and
women marrying women. This insult to God will not go unpunished and the
justices who voted for this change are going to pay for this sinful
decision.
The Supreme Court consists of a Chief
Justice and eight associate justices. The court is made up of six men
and three women. Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor are rumored to have
homosexual preferences. There is not one born again believer in this
group. The conservative block in this group is made up of John Roberts,
Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas. Anthony Kennedy is
usually the swing vote while Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elena
Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor are hardcore liberals. In the decision of
homosexual marriages and rights, Anthony Kennedy not only joined forces
with the liberals, but also wrote the majority opinion.
Roberts, Alito, Scalia and Thomas voted
against homosexual legal rights, but were overruled by Kennedy. Scalia
wrote a strong worded minority opinion:
“By formally declaring anyone opposed to
same-sex marriage an enemy of human decency, the majority arms well
every challenger to a state law restricting marriage to its traditional
definition. Henceforth those challengers will lead with this court’s
declaration that there is 'no legitimate purpose' served by such a law,
and will claim that the traditional definition has the purpose and
effect to disparage and to injure the 'personhood and dignity' of
same-sex couples.”
Here is a short statistical list of the
current Supreme Court Justices:
John Roberts,
Chief Justice. 58 years old, Roman
Catholic and a Republican
Samuel Alito,
63 years old, Roman Catholic favoring the Republican Party
Stephen Breyer,

GOD'S WORD CANNOT BE BROKEN
In examining the Bible, every believer in
Christ must accept the fact that the Word of God cannot be broken and
whatever God has spoken either has happened or will happen in the
future. The Supreme Court Justices are not ignorant of what God has
spoken about marriage and homosexuality and the Bible has stated what
God will do with evil doers. (Hebrews 10:26-31) The wrath of God is now
upon these wicked men and women and one day they will die and face God’s
anger. They will have to answer for all the babies that were murdered
from their rulings and looking favorably upon the counterfeit homosexual
relationships. Unless they repent and turn to Christ before they die,
their fate is sealed and they will spend eternity in the Lake of Fire
and pay for their horrible sins forever.
What made it possible for men and women of
immorality and a hate for God to be appointed to the Supreme Court? The
blame will be laid at the feet of morally corrupt presidents and
senators who in their lust for power, fame and sexual depravity
appointed these vile and morally corrupt federal judges to sit on the
Supreme Court. The blame will be passed on to the American people who
voted in spiritually corrupt politicians as presidents and senators
But the blame will not stop here; it will be
passed on to the Christian pastors of America who failed to preach a
powerful Gospel that brings repentance to the people. Cyrus Scofield was
a man used by Satan in the late 19th century to introduce the false
doctrine that the church would be “raptured” before the coming of the
Antichrist. He also inferred the message that the church should not be
involved in political matters, but focus solely on the second coming of
Christ.
The result was that most pastors stopped
their involvement in the political arena and our public schools,
colleges and universities were turned over without a fight to Satan's
people. Meanwhile, the Christians continued to send their children to
public schools and slowly turned them over to humanistic teachers, which
caused them to become perverted and morally destroyed.
Our school boards, city councils and county
supervisors for the most part consist of ungodly people, who pass rules
and regulations to restrict churches in what they can do. When
Christians abandoned the political parties, Satan's crowd took it over
and the elected representatives in the state houses and in Washington
D.C. began to craft the laws that today are a curse on our nation. The
Christian leadership at the turn of the century in 1900 was bamboozled
by demons and the ungodly Illuminati writers from Europe and they sold
future generations of Americans to become slaves of the Devil. This is
not the first time Satan had been able to pull such a coup, it was done
some 2,700 years ago in Israel and this is what God spoke through his
prophet Hosea:
“Hear the word of the LORD, ye children
of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the
land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the
land. By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing
adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood. Therefore shall the
land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the
beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of
the sea also shall be taken away. Yet let no man strive, nor reprove
another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall
with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother. My people are
destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I
will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou
hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.”
(Hosea 4:1-6)
WHAT ABOUT THE FUTURE?
The Bible clearly tells us that sometime in
the future all nations on the earth will be forced into some kind of a
world federation which means that every nation will lose its
sovereignty. This is not something Americans want to hear since we hold
our freedom dear and we respect and honor the Constitution of the United
States. The day is eventually coming when the American flag will be
lowered for the last time and the new dreaded symbol of a Satanic world
ruler will be hoisted in its place. I don’t know whether it will happen
soon or years from now but Christians need to prepare for that day and
make sure our children understand the times when the world falls into
the abyss which the Bible calls the “Great Tribulation.”
I am sorry to say that the majority of
American pastors do not actually believe the Book of Revelation is for
real because they have been taught in seminaries that it is a book of
symbols written by the apostle John, who was under great duress during
his imprisonment on the island of Patmos. He therefore wrote the book in
code to smuggle it past the Roman guards. There is not much hope for
these pastors and their congregations as they will be horrified some day
when they realize the Book of Revelation was a message from Jesus and
wasn’t an allegory. These same people will take the Mark of the Beast
just to survive, not knowing that in doing so they have been forever
damned to the Lake of Fire.
There are some pastors who believe the Book
of Revelation is the Word of God and should be taken literally but many
of them have been deceived into believing that all believers in Christ
will be caught up into heaven, into what is called “The Rapture” before
the coming of the Antichrist. This abominable teaching cannot be found
in the Bible because it is a man-made doctrine that has been repeated
for the last 150 years. I’m sure you’re familiar with the saying,
“Repeat a lie long enough and often enough and in time people will
believe the lie.”
I want to show you in this newsletter what
the Bible really states about this period in history and what we should
do to prepare for it. Like it or not, it is coming, and if you are alive
at that time, you will have to deal with it one way or the other.
It is my hope that you will be like the
Bereans who heard Paul’s preaching and studied the Scriptures to see if
what he said was true. Are you going to be Berean?
“And the brethren immediately sent away
Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the
synagogue of the Jews. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica,
in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched
the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” (Acts 17:10-11)
May God have mercy on our nation and send a
revival before it is too late.
Yours in Christ,
John S. Torell
