“The MYSTERY OF LAWLESS INIQUITY [spirit of the


Antichrist] IS ALREADY AT WORK in the world.”
(2Thessalonians 2:7; 1John 2:18; 2John 1:7)

NOTE: Despite all possible attempts at (or suspicions of) evil


subversive conspiracy, the Antichrist lawless “Perilous Times” of
the satanic Wicked Man of Sin spoken of by the Apostles
(2Timothy 3:1-5; 2Thessalonians 2:3-12; 1John 2:18-22) or any
“Illuminati” evil New World Order globalism or Theosophist
utopian New Age of Aquarius can never come to pass except in
accordance with God’s own original programme, because “God
surely rules sovereign over all human kingdoms” (Daniel 4:17).

SECRET SOCIETIES are of two types:


1. MYSTICAL SECRET SOCIETIES (Esoteric Schools): seek
mastery of personal life (for protection and prosperity, safety and
success, health and happiness, affluence and influence, peace and
power) through ancient mystical knowledge, mysterious Gnosticism and
occultist divination and enchantment. E.g. Freemasonry and
Rosicrucian AMORC, many of which have imbibed forms of subversive
illuminatism.

2. POLITICAL SECRET SOCIETIES (Subversive Brotherhoods):


seek manipulation of politics and economics (for domination and
monopoly, or emancipation and revolution) through subversive
globalised conspiracy, ideological utopianism and fraternal solidarity.
E.g. Islamist subversive utopianism as found in Muslim Brotherhood
and Al Qaeda, or ELITIST Illuminatism as found in the Bohemian Grove
Cult of California in the United States, and even SATANIST (or
Luciferan) Illuminatism as found in some Theosophist New Age Cults
who subtly collaborate under the coordination of Mrs Ann Bairley’s
Lucis Trust to manipulate and dominate the world through mainstream
Media and the United Nations.

John F. Hylan, former Mayor of New York City, explained (22 March 1922 in
Chicago):

1
“The real menace of our Republic is the invisible government,
which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy legs over our cities,
states and nation . . .  The little coterie of powerful international
bankers virtually run the United States government for their own
selfish purposes. They practically control both parties . . .  [and]
control the majority of the newspapers and magazines in this
country. They use the columns of these papers to club into
submission or drive out of office public officials who refuse to do
the bidding of the powerful corrupt cliques which compose the
invisible government. It operates under cover of a self-created
screen [and] seizes our executive officers, legislative bodies,
schools, courts, newspapers and every agency created for the
public protection.”

What Are “The Illuminati” and their “New World


Order”?
The first Illuminati Subversive Secret Society was an elite cult formed with the
aim of bringing about a globalised New World Order where the Church is
subtly replaced with anti-Christian mysticism, while the Pope and the national
Feudal Monarchs of Europe are subversively “taken out of the way” from
governance and replaced by a world rationalist elitist globalist government of
purported “political-cum-moral freedom” and “social equality” without any
regard to anything Judeo-Christian or anything called Word of God or God.

“Although several groups called themselves “Illuminati” [claiming


special enlightenment] in the past, the most influential and memorable
of them was the Bavarian [Southeast German] Illuminati. Founded on
May 1, 1776, this organization created by [renegade Jesuit-trained]
Adam Weishaupt blurred the line between “spiritual” and
“political” Secret Societies. By mixing the occult sciences of
Freemasonry and Rosicrucianism while conspiring to
achieve precise political goals, the Illuminati became an actor on
the world stage. While most Secret Societies of the time catered to rich
people and their fascination with occultism, the Bavarian [Order of
the] Illuminati actively sought to profoundly change the world.” –
Secret Arcana

“In more modern contexts the name [‘Illuminati’] refers to a purported


conspiratorial organization which is alleged to mastermind events and
control world affairs through governments and corporations to
establish a New World Order. In this context the Illuminati are usually
represented as a modern version or continuation of the Bavarian
Illuminati” – Wikipedia

2
These New World Order Illuminatists are libertinist globalists, who
subtly pretend to bring progress, goodwill and safety, but
subversively exult Satan disguised as the Illuminator “God of
Lights” (Lucifer) the way they had long been revealed in the
Scriptures.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15
(13) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ.
(14) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an
angel of light.
(15) Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be
transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall
be according to their works.

The “New World Order” as it is called today, designates “World Citizens


Cosmopolitan Republic” or World Federation of Republican States
proposed by the 18th century enlightenment philosophers like Immanuel Kant
and pursued by the “Philosophes” of the Enlightenment as an open socio-
political movement but secretly as a clandestine conspiracy agenda by
members of the “Secret Order of the Illuminati” in Bavaria, Germany as
far back as about between 1776 and 1796. The so called “World Citizens
Cosmopolitan Republic” is meant to be a godless globalist world
order envisioned by the “Secret Order of the Illuminati”, which they said
would be realised through international crises such as “revolutions” and
“wars”. 18th century documents (originally written in German) show that the
globalist “League of Nations” was intended to use the desperation and
perplexity of crises to midwife and police the world with “irresistible force”
toward their “World Citizens Cosmopolitan Republic” to bring about
their dreamed utopia of universal “perpetual peace”!

Rev 17:12-17
(12) And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, who have received
no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
(13) These have one mind, and shall give their power and
strength unto the beast.
(14) These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb
shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and
they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
(15) And he said unto me, The waters which you saw, where the
harlot sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and
tongues.
(16) And the ten horns which you saw upon the beast, these shall hate
the harlot, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her
flesh, and burn her with fire.

3
(17) For God has put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and
give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God
shall be fulfilled.

This “New World Order” (“World Citizens Cosmopolitan Republic”)


is to fulfil the weakest and final era of Daniel’s prophetic
interpretation of colossal statue of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream
represented by the two feet and ten toes made of iron and clay.
This represents the presently evolving era of New World Order for
globalization of international community being formed by
globalizing culture, globalizing economics, globalizing
communication, globalizing political alliance with division
caused by intrigues among incongruous iron-clay nations and
their rulers. Only God knows when the stage will be ripe for a
maximum global ruler who will bring things to the maximum
which God would no longer tolerate. At that point, God would
terminate the “times of the Gentiles” by the Second Coming of
Christ to resurrect/rapture His Church and reign with them as His
glorified Royal Priesthood for “1000 years”.

Dan 2:41-45
(41) And as you saw the feet and toes, part of potter's clay, and
part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it
the strength of the iron, just as you saw the iron mixed with miry
clay.
(42) And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so
the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
(43) And as you saw iron mixed with miry clay, they shall
mingle themselves with the descendants of men: but they
shall not hold one to another, even as iron is not mixed with
clay.
(44) And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a
kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall
not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and
consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.
(45) Just as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain
without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the
bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has
made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the
dream is certain, and its interpretation sure.

This Historic eschatological teaching of the Apostolic Scriptures
and the primitive Apostolic Church has been revised again and
again over the ages and is currently distorted by the modern
fallacies of Dispensationalist cut-and-join Theories and their
swinging eschatological punditry based on changing political
analysis.

According to the Illuminati cultic writers between 1776 and 1796 (e.g. Adam
Weishaupt and Ernst August Anton von Göchhausen), their envisioned
illuminatist “World Cosmopolitan Republic” movement was meant to be
secretly manipulated by a network of elitist Illuminati lodges for coordination
of efforts by Elites to mass-mobilise revolt against the feudalist Aristocrats and
religious Clergy. The secret cult of “illuminated philosophes” were to through
the Press and Academia, make it seem as if their move is for the society to be
“ruled by reason” but in actual fact the Illuminati will secretly manipulate
society by “moderate authoritarianism” (called “benevolent dictatorship”
today) to achieve a “conversion of the community”. This is to be accomplished
through crises, flux and mass mobilisation.

The word “illuminati” means “enlightened” or “illuminated” Elites.


Illumination or enlightenment was purported to be generally
sought openly through elitist (free thinking) reason and (free
thinking) knowledge, but was actually sought secretly by the
Illuminati through gnostic mysticism and esoteric occultism
antagonistic to Christianity, the Church and godly morality.
Illuminatist mysticism and occultism eventually acknowledged Lucifer (Satan)
as their ultimate Enlightener or Illuminator!

The Illuminati has triple globalist agenda of Atheist


rebellion, Political domination and Financial
monopoly.
In 1777 Adam Weishaupt, the founder of the cultic Bavarian Order of the
Illuminati gave these matching orders to his Illuminati followers for the
infiltration and manipulation of the Press and publishing:
“We must bring our opinions into fashion by every act–spread them
among the people by the help of young writers. We must preach the
warmest concern for humanity, and make people indifferent
to all other relations.... If a writer publishes anything that attracts
notice, and is in itself just, but does not accord with our plan, we must
endeavour to win him over, or decry him. A chief object of our
care must be to keep down that slavish veneration for princes which so
much disgraces all nations... We must assiduously collect anecdotes,
[of] the[ir] honourable and mean actions....”

Today, many occultist “secretly subversive” (illuminatist) cults, that have


espoused this globalising heathenish godless agenda are mushrooming
and clandestinely collaborating together. Their vehicle of propagation are the
print media, the film industry, the television, multimedia information
technology and party music which are combined to promote and celebrate all
sensual vices and vile passions (sexual promiscuity, nude and crazy fashion,
drug addiction, revelry, mass anarchy, global crisis, bloody violence, subjective
libertine “spirituality”, and demonic religious involvement).

They use the sponsorship of financing institutions and banks to monopolise


the mainstream media, promote atheistic educational philosophy and
literature; they also collaborate to finance the multinational conglomerates,
they manipulate global upheavals, globalised alliances, political lobbying,
espionage and diplomacy, etc in order to dominate global politics and
economy toward their envisioned godless global agenda. (Even the Islamists
have also developed their Islamic and networking setup and financing system
to secretly fund the violent and virulent propagation of their own brand of
subversive utopian global order). These evil selfish cults propound theories
that when each person is free to unwind and satisfy all his/her base animal
8
instincts without moral censure, people will “actualise” themselves, then the
world will experience advantageous release of human potentials in a
harmonious Aquarian golden New Age or New World Order dominated by the
super-consciously illuminated. It was David Rockefeller who made staggering
revelations in his famous New World Order statements.

"We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time
Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended
our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost
forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan
for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity
during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and
prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational
sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely
preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past
centuries." – David Rockefeller [June, 1991]

"This present window of opportunity, during which a truly peaceful


and interdependent world order might be built, will not be open for too
long... We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is
the right major crisis, and the nations will accept the New World
Order." – David Rockefeller speaking at the United Nations
Ambassadors' dinner. [Sept. 23, 1994]

The Illuminati and “Taking Out Of The Way” Agenda


Now that democratic governance is the norm and Monarchs and the Church
are “taken out of the way” from governance and economics, the modern
“Illiminati” cults are further syndicating together against the true Gospel so
that its moral restraint would be “taken out of the way” from the Church’s life
and teaching; or at least that the Christian Faith be corrupted to the core with
mundane carnality and modern paganism (especially through “Gospel”
rave music and commercialist tele-evangelism). In this way, the Bible
becomes irrelevant in the Church’s worship and witness; or biblical message
becomes twisted by casuistry and revisionist reinterpretation. According to
already apparent illuminatist New Age propaganda, even the now popular
democratic government ideology will soon be “taken out of the way” to be
replaced by a specially elitist “politically correct” world government ideology
and eventually a “benevolent dictator” ideology will take over globally. These
obviously prepare the grounds for the Antichrist!

To some Christians who are being put off-guard and are falling prey
to deceptive Illuminati manipulations, the “taken out of the way” of
all system of legal and orderly restraint amongst nations (2Thes
2:7) due to the Pax-Romana and State government is misunderstood
to mean that the Church’s restraint will be “taken up to heaven” or
“caught away up to the air” or “caught up to heaven” (1Thes 4:17).

9
What the Apostle predicted that will first occur before the
Antichrist will be revealed is the “FALLING AWAY” from the faith
(2Thes 2:3) NOT “caching away to the air” for “gathering” to meet
the coming Christ.

Also THE DAY the saints are to MEET the coming Christ IN THE
AIR is specifically said that it will not come until AFTER THE
ANTICHRIST SON OF PERDITION (2Thes 2:1-3). Besides, “out of
the way” here is unlikely to mean “up to heaven” since the taking
away of the restraint and the revelation of the Antichrist must first
happen before the Church is gathered at the coming Lord (2Thes
2:3). Contrary to Dispensationalist pre-tribulation rapture theory, the Apostle
insists that these trends and events (anarchy and apostasy which will lead to
the Antichrist tribulation) are clearly predicted in the Scriptures as inevitable
ANTECEDENTS before Christ comes or descends from the heavens with
glorious clouds and holy Angels to destroy the Antichrist and gather His
saints unto Himself to reign with them:
2Thessalonians 2:1-12
(1) Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our
being gathered together to be with him: I beg you, my
friends,
(2) not to be so easily confused in your thinking or upset by the claim
that the Day of the Lord has come. Perhaps it is thought that we said
this while prophesying or preaching, or that we wrote it in a letter.
(3) Do not let anyone deceive you in any way. For the Day
will not come until the final Rebellion takes place and the
Wicked One appears, who is destined to hell.
(4) He will oppose every so-called god or object of worship and will
put himself above them all. He will even go in and sit down in God's
Temple and claim to be God.
(5) Don't you remember? I told you all this while I was with you.
(6) Yet there is something that keeps this from happening
now, and you know what it is. At the proper time, then, the
Wicked One will appear.
(7) The Mysterious Wickedness is already at work, but what
is going to happen will not happen until the one who holds it
back is taken out of the way.
(8) Then the Wicked One will be revealed, but when the Lord Jesus
comes, he will kill him with the breath from his mouth and destroy him
with his dazzling presence.
(9) The Wicked One will come with the power of Satan and perform all
kinds of false miracles and wonders,
(10) and use every kind of wicked deceit on those who will perish. They
will perish because they did not welcome and love the truth so as to be
saved.
(11) And so God sends the power of error to work in them so that they
believe what is false.
10
(12) The result is that all who have not believed the truth, but have
taken pleasure in sin, will be condemned.

The Illuminati and “Harmonic Convergence”


Geomancy and “Planetary Surrender” Occultism
What we call modern fashion and culture is obviously not
divine or holy culture but heathenish and DEMONIC
DEBAUCHERY IN OPPOSITION TO THE ANGELIC DECORUM
revealed in the Scriptures. Only divinely instituted Angelic
culture (with its liturgical symbolisms and protocols 1Cor 11:1-
16) is agreeable to the order of the Apostolic New Testament
Church.
1Corinthians 11:10-11
(10) For this cause ought the woman to have authority on her
head because of the angels.
(11) Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither
the woman without the man, in the Lord.

Hebrews 12:22-25
(22) But you are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the
living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable
company of angels,
(23) To the general assembly and church of the
firstborn, who are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of
all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
(24) And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the
blood of sprinkling, that speaks better things than that of Abel.
(25) See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped
not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall we not
escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven:

Since the popular youth awakening of the "Woodstock


Festival" or "hippie movement" with its unrestrained “lust-
rock-drug-sex” and subjective “spirituality” of late 1960s and
early 1970s, the world has changed so fast and gone astray too
far. Further, on December 31, 1986 and August 16-17, 1987, the
Luciferian Illuminatti and New Agers united together in their
worldwide mass occultist meditation and geomantic
divination across the globe. At these global invocations and
meditations, the focus was that “THE WAY PEOPLE
PERCEIVE REALITY BE ALTERED”. The 1986 invocation was
led by 144,000 adept witches and shamans that coordinated
50,000,000 occultists while the 1987 session involved over

11
80,000,000 occultists. (The late Archbishop Benson Idahosa
publicly opposed and hindered the December 1986 Benin City geomantic
coven in Nigeria). These occultists and New Agers saw these
times as times of cosmic “Instant of Cooperation” (1986) or
"Harmonic Convergence" (1987) and the
meditations/invocations were meant to release "spiritual
forces" for "Planetary Surrender” to the demons!
See http://herescope.blogspot.com/2011/06/new-age-date-
setting.html

Even though the expected technological regression and


utopian peace and their date-setting did not seem to follow, it
seems that since then, there is more united effort (through the
power of the Mass Media and the Internet) to ensure that
people’s perception of reality and of Christianity began to be
altered as envisaged by Harmonic Convergence geomancy of
Planetary Surrender occultism in the 1980s; even the Church
has not been spared apparently because we now see that:
 Truth and light are replaced with lie and darkness,
 Scripture has been overtaken by culture,
 Sermon is replaced with motivational speech,
 Pentecostal Christianity is replaced with pente-rascal
heathenism,
 Living by Grace has become living licentiously,
 shamefaced clothing is replaced with heathenish
seductive fashion designs,
 worship-veil to cover human shame is replaced with
long-hair to depict human glory,
 Christian modesty and dignity is replaced with pagan
nudity and vanity,
 Prayer warriors have become geomancers and
kabbalists,
 adoration praise-worship music is replaced with
gyration “praise-cotech” music,
 paganism and subjectivism have become repackaged
and updated spirituality,
 sin and licentiousness have become style and liberty,
 being under grace has become being above the moral
law of the Spirit,
 madman’s demeanour has become model and decorum
show-business, ...

12
There has now been a resurgence of many false doctrines which the
Church had found heretical and rejected as unscriptural in the past as
well as emergence of new heresies. These resurgent and emergent false
doctrines include: – (Do you have Scriptures that invalidate any of
these?)
* Once Saved Always Saved however sinful or apostate you are at
death (Heb 6:4-6; 10:23-31; 2Pet 2:20-22).
* Grace means permission to sin with no negative consequence
(Eph 2:8-10, 3:7-8; Tit 2:11-13).
* You only need to believe but don't need to repent (Mark 1:15; Luk
24:45-47; Act 2:36-48; 20:21; Rom 1:5; 16:26).
* Obedience to God’s Word and commandments is legalism and
not part of the Gospel of grace and love (John 14:15; 1John 5:2-3).
* To live by God’s word is rejected but to claim the promises of the
Word is grabbed.
* Holy living, modesty and order are termed legalism or “religion”
as though these are evil.
* Antinomy and anomy (i.e. lawlessness and libertinism) are hailed
as true Gospel message.
* Christian Solemnized Marriage (1Cor 7:39) is seen as
unnecessary before sexual relations for Christians.
* Opposition to appointing united commemoration of Christ's
birth, fast and death and resurrection which they falsely paint as
pagan in origin.
* Opposition to divinely instituted (Act 20:17, 28) ministerial order
and administration in the Church (Act 6:1-7; 14:23; Phil 1:1; 1Tim
3; Tit 1:5; Heb 13:7, 17) which they either paint as human
institutionalisation and organisation or overthrow with enterprise
proprietorship.
* Individual Christianity is said to be right while organized
fellowship Christianity is seen as wrong.
* You are what your rudimentary temperament says you are.
* Homosexuality is alright since gender is a choice because
subjective perception is always right.
* Faith without works is alright since licentious grace has made all
(good or evil) works irrelevant.
* Everybody is saved and will go to heaven eventually.
* Sin is not depravity but illusion, so salvation is not propitiation
but illumination.
* You don't need to prepare for the Tribulation since you would be
raptured before then and before the resurrection (Mat 24:25-31;
2Thes 2:1-4).

13
* Claims such as… I am God, I am Christ is the reality since
thinking otherwise is delusion.
* The Church should start doing all the worldly things so as not to
lose members.
* Morals without money is useless or even a nuisance, but money
without morality is blessedness.
* Death wish imprecations against presumed "enemies".
* Divination as means of power and miracle is good because
miracles are all the proof you need.
* Divine Commandments are nuisance and burdens which should
be rejected (John 14:15; 1John 5:2-3).

And people unaware of their ALTERED PERCEPTION invoked


on them and impressed on them through psychological
pressures and the mass media, think they are enjoying life or
getting things right while Christians who SYNCRETISE
CHRISTIANITY WITH HEATHENISM in their ALTERED
PERCEPTION think they are “repackaging” and “updating” the
Gospel, not knowing what is happening to them! This was the
case in syncretistic Israel when Jeremiah prophesied:
Jeremiah 5:29-31
(29) Shall I not punish for these things? says the LORD: shall not
my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
(30) An appalling and horrible thing is committed in the land;
(31) The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule
by their own power; and my people love to have it so: and
what will you do in the end?

The Apostle Paul also warned against such syncretistic


Christianity which was to become prevalent before the coming
of the Antichrist:
2 Thessalonians 2:10-15
(10) And with all deception of unrighteousness in them that
perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they
might be saved.
(11) And for this cause God shall send them a strong delusion,
that they should believe a lie:
(12) That they all might be condemned who believed not the truth,
but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
(13) But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you,
brethren beloved of the Lord, because God has from the beginning
chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and
belief of the truth:

14
(14) To which he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the
glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(15) Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which
you have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.

In Rev 3:18 Christ counselled and warned the syncretistic


Church to SALVE THEIR EYES SO THEY COULD SEE. This is
the warning for us today.

Ah! May God open our eyes and deliver His elect Saints.
