Thanks Colin. It's nice to see a good number gathered together this evening. Just before we commence, could I say I have prepared, as you know, some notes. They're not for tonight really. My normal practice when I do notes for a meeting is to condense what I have written myself and to let you follow along with it, but I've actually done the opposite tonight. What I've done, what you've got, if you have one of those little folders, what you've got is my raw notes. There's spelling mistakes and there's bad grammar and all sorts of things in it. It's not for publication. It's not for dissemination. Don't be sharing them. They're just for you, so that when you go home, you can look further into this topic, because as I worked my way through it, I found that no matter how hard I tried, I would never get everything that I wanted to say into this talk tonight. So I've given you more than what I'm going to say. For example, the doctrines of the Theosophical Society, I'm not going to deal with those this evening. But they're there for you, along with web links and resources so that you can follow them up. And I hope that you'll do that when you go home. If you can spare a copy, if you have copies left over, if you've got two copies per house, you'll not need two copies per house. You know, if you're a husband and wife and you sort of speak to each other, if you could leave one of the copies with us, then we can use it for somewhere else later on. So that's basically what that's for, and I hope that's helpful. Let's read from God's word, and we're going to read a short passage from Matthew's gospel, chapter 24. You don't even have to look it up, it's in the booklet. See, I've done it all for you. Matthew chapter 24, and reading from verse one. And Jesus went out and departed from the temple. And his disciples came to him for to show him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said unto them, see ye not all these things? For early I say unto you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down. And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, tell us, when shall these things be? "'and what shall be the sign of thy coming "'and of the end of the world?' "'And Jesus answered and said unto them, "'Take heed that no man deceive you, "'for many shall come in my name, saying, "'I am Christ,' and shall deceive many. "'And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, "'and see that ye be not troubled, "'for all these things must come to pass, "'but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there shall be famines and pestilences, and earthquakes in diverse places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you. And you shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall raise, and deceive many. And because the iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations. And then shall the end come. Well, I've dropped myself in it again to some extent. At the end of October last year, I was listening to a podcast with James Dellingpole and Dr. Anne McCluskey. Very interesting podcast indeed, although I'm not recommending that you listen to it. Dr. Anne brings her own political perspective to the discussion. And both contributors tended to use rather earthy language from time to time. But the topic was the COVID, the so-called pandemic. And as you probably know, Dr. McCluskey does have a lot to contribute on that particular subject. But what intrigued me was that during the discussion, the contributors mentioned theosophy a number of times. And more so, mentioned that the ideas and philosophies that are part of the theosophical religion, for want of a better word, are influencing and explaining a lot of what we see happening in modern society. And for me, that made sense. So I asked Sam and Colin if we could include a talk on Theosophy in this year's programme. And then I discovered it wouldn't be that simple. That's where I dropped myself in it. Firstly, because we're probably starting right from scratch, most Christians will have encountered Mormons, haven't you? And no doubt some of you will be sitting at home someday, and the doorbell will ring, and you've opened the door, and you'll find two nicely dressed ladies standing there, introducing themselves as Jehovah's Witnesses, or as they sometimes do these days, Jehovah's Christian Witnesses. Don't be fooled by that. But how many Christians have ever met a theosophist? You hardly even pronounce the word. Many have even heard of theosophy or even heard a sermon or a talk on theosophy in church. The second reason this became difficult and caused me a lot of stress was that there's a lot of literature and spoken content on all the major cults. There's books and there's apologetics, there's websites dealing with the Jehovah Witnesses. On Mormonism, there's books written from a Christian perspective, any amount of podcast episodes, videos, websites. You can even find critiques of the lesser known cults like Christian Science, for example. Not theosophy, it's hiding away. I could find no books from a Christian perspective that deal with that cult on its own. Because I suppose trying to pin down what theosophists actually believe is like trying to nail jelly to the wall. So having settled down to read about the Theosophical Society, its beliefs and its objectives, I decided I would probably have two intentions in this talk, and that's as far as I can go. The first one is to make you aware of a satanic cult that has absolutely set itself against God, against the church, against the Christian faith. and against Christians right from ancient times and is still active today. And secondly, then, to attempt some practical explorations, and that's all they are, into how this heresy might be influencing world events and inspiring globalist organizations in this present age. The word theosophy simply means divine wisdom. It's derived from two Greek words, theos, God, and sophia, wisdom. So having said all of that, let's start. And let's see the satanic background of this organisation or this philosophy. Theosophy as an organization, the Theosophical Society still exists. It came into being in New York in 1875. But to summarize the history of theosophy, we have to go way back. We have to go right back 2,000 years to the Apostolic Age, and we find the roots of this in an ancient pantheistic heresy that had attached itself to the early church. Theosophical authors and the websites that they have today speak very warmly of the early Christian Gnostics. I wonder, have you heard of them? Gnostics sought to promote their malign influence in the early church in the first century and for the next couple of centuries. And theosophy is just more or less a modern version of Gnosticism. The word Gnosticism comes from the word Gnostic, it means knowledge. It wasn't confined to Christianity. Their strange beliefs could be attached to virtually any religious system. Gnosticism was a collection of strange philosophical ideas. For example, in Gnosticism, salvation, the eternal well-being of the soul, whatever they thought that to be, wasn't through faith in Christ. It wasn't through repentance or the forgiveness of sins. Salvation was by knowledge, secret knowledge, some personal revelation that other Christians, if they were Christianostics, if there is such a thing, some personal revelation that other Christians didn't have. In fact, only a select few, they would say, had received this special personal revelation. And they would say then that that was unique to them and salvation was because of that revelation and enlightenment. Now obviously that's diametrically opposed to Christianity, isn't it? Christianity with its unwavering proclamation of a monotheistic God, the creator and sustainer of the universe, the God who made the world and declared that it was good. The Gnostics said that the world was evil, the matter was evil and spirit was good, a kind of dualism. But Christianity believes that God created this world and declared that it was good, and redeemed his fallen creation, and redeemed his people from the effects of the fall through his intervention in history, revealed not just to a few people, but to the whole world. That historical event in which God sent his only begotten son into the world to publicly die on a cross for crimes that he had not committed, for the sins of others, to be resurrected from the dead publicly, witnessed by many people, to demonstrate to all that God had accepted his atoning sacrifice on our behalf and was well pleased with him is exactly the opposite of the Gnostic doctrine of salvation by secret knowledge. And it is replicated in the beliefs of the theosophists. And it clashes with the exclusive and yet inclusive universal declaration of the good news of Jesus Christ. in biblical Christianity, salvation is available to all those who have believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who have repented of their sins, who rest on his finished work on the cross alone for their salvation. So Gnosticism penetrating the early church and its ideas still being held in a modified form by the Theosophical Society of today. It never really went away. It became structured in the late 19th century. So what I'm going to do is to look at some of the main figures of theosophy, just to show you where they're coming from. And the first one we have to look at is Madame Blavatsky. Helena Petrovna Blavatsky was born in the Ukraine in 1831. At the age of 17, she married a Russian czarist general, Nikifor Blavatsky. He was a much older man. And they were so incompatible that the marriage literally only lasted a couple of months, a few months before they parted company. Madame Blavatsky had a seriously unhealthy interest in the occult. She claimed that she was being contacted by ancient secret masters, reincarnated entities who dwelt in a remote corner of Tibet. It's starting to sound a bit esoteric now, isn't it? Following her separation from her husband, Blavatsky traveled to India where she studied Eastern religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, so on. And then she went to America in 1871, where four years later in New York, she established the Theosophical Society along with two of her early associates, Colonel Henry Olcott and William Judge. We can't go into them tonight. Blavatsky wrote several books, and it's one of those that I want to concentrate on. It's called Secret Doctrine. the synthesis of science, religion, and philosophy. This is what theosophy claims to be a synthesis of science, religion, and philosophy. Described on one website as a pseudo-scientific esoteric book, Originally written in two volumes, the Theosophists still regard it as a sacred text, even though its sources are dubious, even though much has plagiarized from occult sources, like Joseph Smith's Book of Mormon, like Muhammad's Quran. What matters for our purposes is that in the book there are many references to Satan. So for example, Blavatsky wrote, In the book, it is Satan who is the God of our planet, and the only God. Blavatsky wrote, and now it stands proven, that Satan, or the red fiery devil, the Lord of Phosphorus, and Lucifer, or Lightbearer, is in us, is in our mind. There's more. But keep in mind this, that right from the pen of its very first prophet is, Theosophy exalts Satan. Theosophy is satanic, and Blavatsky makes no attempt whatsoever to hide it. So as an occultist, she did the will of her father, the devil. Madame Blavatsky moved to India, and she established the international headquarters of the Theosophical Society. She died in London in 1891, and she went to meet her maker, the one true God, the God who created the universe, the God who so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Blavatsky, in this life, had rejected God's salvation in favour of occult Satanism. And unless she repented on her deathbed, she will share the lake of fire as one of the devil's disciples for all of eternity. Revelation 20 and 10. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented night and day, forever and ever. Revelation 20 and 14, and death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death and whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. After her death, Annie Besant took over the leadership of the Theosophical Society. Annie Besant was born in England in 1847, as Annie would. She's described as an atheist, socialist, theosophist, freebasing, woman's rights, Irish home rule activist, educationalist, campaigner for Indian nationalism. Oh, she sounds like a bundle of joy, doesn't she? She met and married an Anglican clergyman called Frank Besant. But the marriage ended. In 1890, Besant met Madame Blavatsky, and her interest in theosophy began to grow. She became a member of the Theosophical Society and a well-known lecturer in the subject. In 1902, she established the first ever overseas lodge of the International Order of Co-Free Masonry. There's a link there. And over the following years, four more lodges right throughout the British Empire. In 1907, she became president of the Theosophical Society, whose headquarters at that time were located in India. But for our purposes, we should concentrate on an incident which occurred while she was living in India. Mrs. Besant had adopted an Indian child, a boy called Jida Krishnamurti. Krishnamurti became her protege. traveled with her to the United States in the late 1920s, and Besant claimed that Krishnamurti was the reincarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ. Remember what it said in Matthew 24. Apparently, with Krishnamurti's anointing, Christ had been reincarnated 27 times, according to Annie Besant. In Matthew 24 and verse 24, Jesus warns his disciples, for there shall arise false Christs and false prophets and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Now here's the unusual thing. In 1929, sadly for Mrs. Besant, Krishnamurti resigned as Messiah. Now did you ever hear of a Messiah resigning? He dissolved his association of followers. And again, from that incident, we see theosophy clearly demonstrating its ungodly, anti-Christian agenda. There's other notable historical figures who dabbled with theosophy. You'll have heard of Gandhi of India, who said theosophy The teaching of Madame Blavatsky, theosophy is the brotherhood of man. We'll come back to that. Rudolf Steiner, the educationalist. Ralph Waldo Emerson. You can go into Christian bookshops and you can pick up little leaflets and little books of quotations by Ralph Waldo Emerson. If you ever see them, don't touch them. And tell the person who runs the shop, he was a theosophist, not a Christian. a philosopher and a poet. But we have to go to one more historical figure because she's important, and that's Alice Bailey. Alice Bailey was born in England in 1880 to Christian parents. She was a member of an Anglican church and she claimed to have had a mystical experience. Notice again the personal revelation coming through in all of this. All of these main leaders of theosophy all claim to have some special revelation that no one else has had. It's all coming from this belief in Gnosticism that through knowledge and revelation are we Are we redeemed? Are we saved? And so at the age of 15, Mrs. Bailey claimed that she was visited by a man wearing a turban who told her that she would have a special mission. So in 1917, she came under the influence of the Theosophical Society, studied the works of Madame Blavatsky, and quickly rose to prominence in the American section of the cult. In 1919, she met another leading theosophist, a man called Foster Bailey, and they were married. She published a number of books on theosophy, covering thought, esoteric thought on the solar system, meditation, healing, spiritual psychology, the destiny of nations, prescriptions for society. And again, like Helena Blavatsky, she claimed that the content for these books was channeled to her via the ancient Tibetan masters. More personal revelation. These ancient Tibetan masters, nobody had ever seen them or heard of them. I would suggest demons. Alice Bailey was the first to coin the phrase New Age movement. You've heard of that, I'm sure. And she promoted her vision of a unified humanity, a global spirit of religion, different from traditional religious forms, and including what she called the age of Aquarius. If you're around in the 70s, You'll have heard of the musical Her, Filthy. One of the songs in that, it's the dawning of the age of Aquarius. Very popular. piece of singing that went to high up in the charts at that time. Bailey believed that mankind was evolving through reincarnations. Reincarnation is the way in which, according to the theosophists, is the way in which we are made worthy of whatever heaven is in their system. But the fact that mankind was evolving was an important concept in modern globalism. Mankind is to be evolved according to the globalists who you'll be meeting over in Davos next week. Mankind has to evolve through the use of technology. It is no accident that last week we had Keir Starmer talking about AI. and its benefits to mankind, and you will see much, much more of this in days to come. Mankind has to be evolved through medical interventions, like vaccines and innovations. Bailey, in her Back to Blavatsky campaign, aimed to get theosophy back to its roots. It failed, and both her and her husband were dismissed from office. Now, here's the main thing about Alice Bailey. Before she left the Theosophical Society, she founded an organization called the Lucis Trust, L-U-C-I-S, the Lucis Trust, in 1922. That organization very quickly formed a publishing wing, and the publishing wing's name was Lucifer Publishing. Lucifer Publishing, all right? So you see the connection again. I've listed other aspects of the work of the Lucy's Trust below as footnotes in your notes and you can see them when you go home. Bailey died in 1949 and continued to work in the theosophical thought up until the time of her death. Right, if there's one single takeaway from that historical summary, and it's only a summary, it must be that despite theosophy's pantheistic basis, And despite the claim that they see value in all religious systems, and they want to promote a synthesis of religion, and despite their desire to unite all religions into one, which is their objective, there is absolutely nothing in theosophy that is even remotely in harmony with biblical Christianity. Its emphasis on satanic worship. It's undisguised praise of Lucifer preclude any real Christian from having any fellowship whatsoever with theosophy or with interfaith relationships that are promoted by it. Right? I hope I've persuaded you. Theosophy and the Theosophical Society in all its forms are in every sense satanic. So why it's important for us to get a snapshot of the maze-like, often unfathomable philosophies and beliefs of the Theosophical Society. You can see that below in the notes. For our purposes tonight, for the sake of time, its state of objectives are more relevant. This satanic society wants to become the nucleus of a universal brotherhood of all mankind without distinction of race, creed, class, or colour. They want to encourage the comparative studies of religion, philosophy, and science, and they want to investigate, as they say, unexplained laws of nature and those powers that lie dormant or are latent in humanity. And I take that directly from the Theosophical Society of Great Britain's website. It's in your notes. And that leads us to the dangers that theosophy poses for us. Why would we need to be concerned about a philosophical movement or a cult that few people have even heard of? The modern Theosophical Society has a few thousand members officially worldwide, and yet it wields enormous influence in global affairs. It creates a clear and present danger to world populations and especially to Christians. Internationally, its influence on the United Nations, the overriding and leading globalist non-governmental body is extremely considerable because of the involvement of theosophists and theosophical entities like the Lucis Trust. Let me demonstrate this for you. So what is the United Nations? while the United Nations on its own website states, the United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 member states, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding charter. The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world, but one thing has stayed the same. It remains the one place on earth where all the world's nations can gather together, discuss common problems and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity. But the UN is, however, very far from being a benevolent, non-political organisation. It is the UN, for example, that is driving the net zero madness, that is blighting the United Kingdom especially, other Western countries too. It's a stated goal of the United Nations to foster human development by promoting unity between world religions. Some social commentators, for example James Lindsay in his New Discourses broadcast, actually believe that the UN is more akin to a religion than a political movement. A religion demanding obedience and compliance from its adherents. In August 2000, the UN facilitated the Millennium Peace Summit of Religious and Spiritual Leaders in New York City. And one of the outcomes of that summit was the Religious Initiative of the World Economic Forum. Its 2016 document The role of faith in systemic global challenges lists areas of the WAF agenda where multi-faith cooperation will advance Alice Bailey's vision that emphasis should be laid on the evolution of humanity. For example, religion and economic growth, the climate change scam, the global finance system, the internet, international trade and investment, the fight, as they put it, against diseases. Note carefully that none of those things are the primary message of Christianity, which is to be the declaration of the gospel, the good news of the forgiveness of sins, and eternal life in Christ. The UN's plans to evolve humanity don't include Christian witness. But there's a direct connection between theosophy and the United Nations. And it lies in the work of the Lucis Trust, the body founded by Alice Bailey, and whose publishing wing began as Lucifer Publishing. The Lusus Trust's own website claims the Lusus Trust has consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations and World Goodwill. World Goodwill is one of the divisions of the Lusus Trust. World Goodwill is recognized by the Department of Public Information at the United Nations as a non-governmental organization. The anti-Christian, satanic convictions of the Theosophists through the Lucis Trust are embedded at the very heart of the globalist bodies that make up the New World Order. The Goodwill Project's website commenting on one of the purposes of the United Nations, states, the United Nations is concerned with reaffirming faith in human rights. One of the most important ways it does this is through the most famous of its declarations, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UDHR. It is easy to underestimate what a huge advance this is. Most of the credit for this fact is due to the worldwide influence that the UDHR has achieved in its 65 years of existence. It has become a kind of gold standard against which national behaviour is measured. It is a profoundly spiritual document, for it espouses a vision of universal freedom and brotherhood that transcends all differences of cultural, religious or social conditioning. They want to create a one world religion. transcends all differences of religious conditioning. Now ask yourself what that means. One website claims, Lucy's Trust has a voice on the board of the United Nations as spiritual advisors. Now remember, this is an organization that is entirely satanic. They have a voice on the board of the United Nations, a voice on the board of the main overall globalist body as spiritual advisors. They direct policies according to theosophical philosophy. One man, one name was David Spangler. David Spangler was a disciple of Alice Bailey and the Lucis Trust. And he was, to quote, a Luciferian and wrote books publicly stating his position. He once said, no one will enter the new world order unless he or she will make a pledge to worship Lucifer. No one will enter the new age unless he will take a Luciferian initiation. Sounds a bit like the Revelation passage that talks about no one buying or selling without having the mark of the beast. And one can only imagine what he means by no one will enter the new age unless he will take a Luciferian initiation. What would that consist of? What would that ceremony be like? fairly recent upsurge in exposés of ritualistic child abuse cases. Paedophilia, in effect, among the global elites. The extraordinary lengths that the establishment go to in covering up paedophilia may give us an indication of what is going on behind closed doors. No one. says Spengler, will enter the new year unless he takes a Luciferian initiation. No one will enter the new world order unless he or she will make a pledge to worship Lucifer. Theosophy influencing globalism. Eleusis Trust's Goodwill Project reveals that its primary focus is to form the basis for a one-world religion. You can be absolutely sure it will not be a Christian religion. And that's part of their mission at the United Nations. They're there as spiritual advisors to promote the growth in religious pluralism, interfaith dialogue that promotes the idea that all religions are equal, and the erroneous teachings that in many ways lead to God or to heaven all exist today. Let me rephrase that, the growth in religious pluralism, interfaith dialogue that promotes the idea that all religions are equal and the erroneous teachings that many ways lead to God or heaven. Those all exist today. I know that some of the fact-check websites will deny that the UN has an agenda to create a single world religion, but the notion that all religions are equal is nothing less than an impetus to future closer religious cooperation and eventual combination into one globalist faith. The globalists move slowly. Their aims are always long-term, There's no hurry to achieve them. As we have seen, they're quite happy to bring representatives of the great world religions as they talk about together, to work together on UN goals, to work together on climate change. You know, there's more talked about in climate change in some denominations now than there is about the gospel. They talk about the world economy. They talk about everything but what matters, knowing that eventually what really differentiates between them will be lost in their practical cooperation. Let me give your brain a rest for a moment. Let me give you an example of a much smaller local scale. during a time of high community tension in Belfast in 2001 and 2002. A local evangelical pastor was concerned about the hindrance to his evangelistic work that was caused by a dispute in his local area, sectarian dispute. and he worried about the trouble spilling over into the streets around his church and because of that simple single issue he met with other church leaders from both communities purely to see if some practical resolution to the problem could be found. And those meetings took place on an ad hoc basis. When there was rioting in the street, for example, he would simply go out there and there would be other denominational leaders and they would appeal together for calm. And on some occasions, TV cameras were there. And on one of those occasions, one of those church leaders, out of the blue, turned to this group of assorted clergy and said, let's pray. And what happened? Evangelical pastor was caught in a dilemma, standing, seen by the world, praying alongside a Roman Catholic priest. Now imagine that on a global scale. They bring these faith leaders, and they wine and dine them at an exclusive Swiss resort. And they stroke their egos, and they tell them how important they are. And they ask them to discuss practical ways to help the global evolution of mankind. And when you think of how that draws them in, and it isn't long before you have Pope Francis saying in Singapore, all religions are paths to find God. They are like different languages in order to arrive at God, but God is God for everyone. And since God is God for all, then we are all children of God. The very opposite of the Christian message, that's a satanic statement. King Charles III, the self-styled defender of faith, whatever that is. Did you know he was ritually circumcised as a baby by a Jewish rabbi? Did you know that? He's the head of the Church of England. And yet, if you look on the Jewish Chronicles website, It tells you that the London Jewish community's official mohel, that's a surgeon who ritually performs circumcisions on babies, a Jewish man specially trained in the ritual. It says there, the Jewish community's official, Mohel Jacob Snowman, performed circumcision surgery on baby Prince Charles in Buckingham Palace days after his birth in 1948. Princes Andrew and Edward were also circumcised. Did you know that? Did you listen to his address to the nature on Christmas Day? I can assure you I didn't. But it wasn't long before I found a transcript. Charles said, our saviour holy, quoting a hymn, our saviour holy came down from earth to heaven, lived among the poor and mean and lowly, and transformed the lives of those he met through God's redeeming love. He then went on to say, that is the heart of the Nativity story. and we can hear its beat, the beat, the heartbeat of the nativity story. We can hear its beat in the belief of all the great faiths. Can we indeed? One commentator remarked with that speech, Charles just destroyed the monarchy. The monarchy must profess the Protestant Christian faith, and if it does anything else, it is illegitimate, and the constitutional settlement is broken. Charles is no king. Charles should do the right thing and go away, rather than to pretend to fulfill a role that he has no intention of doing. He is pursuing a globalist agenda. And he's doing it openly before your very eyes. And he's admitting to it on Christmas Day in his broadcast. He wants a single, one-world religion. And it's a satanic religion. And I think you've seen examples of it. I think you've seen examples of the globalist cabals of the new world order flaunting their anti-Christian satanic religion without shame at every opportunity. And the latest example, I suppose, might be just at 2024 at the Paris Olympics, where they had a mockery of the last supper, satanic. depicted surrounded by drag queens, men dressed in women's clothes, and far more than that, you can look it up for yourself. The United States Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, tweeted, Last night's mockery of the Last Supper was shocking and insulting to Christian people around the world who watched the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The war on our faith and traditional values knows no bounds today, but we know that truth and virtue will always prevail. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it, John 1 and 5. Good for him. I wish some of our public representatives would be his vocal. Of course, the globalist, new world order, great reset aspect of theosophical influence is not the only menace that would be remiss of me. Not to mention that there is danger to the visible Christian church, even to the very elect of God themselves, if that would be possible in our passage. In Matthew 24, Jesus said, For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Theosophy may be a minority interest in world religion these days, but the underlying Gnostic ideas that spawned it are lingering on the fringes of the visible church right to this very day. They pose a clear and present danger to evangelical Christians and to evangelical churches. We want the visible church to maintain the doctrines of the first disciples and apostles who were trained and taught by Christ himself, who were the divinely inspired authors of the New Testament, and yet today there are church leaders and supposedly Christian assemblies who are seriously divorced from biblical teachings. divorced from apostolic doctrine, and those who claim extra-biblical revelation or their subjective faith journey as their guiding light, as did the Gnostics, as do the Theosophists. I think we've shown that theosophy, like all cults, is satanic. Satan's aims and the aims of the Theosophical Society are the same. is to create a one world pantheistic homogenized religion in which all those who are deceived by it are on course for the rake of fire with the devil and all his demons. And as far as the new world order is concerned, having one single religious faith which can be controlled and manipulated by the globalist cabals for their own ends, will advance their satanic destruction of mankind, the very pinnacle and peak of God's created work. Theosophy and true doctrinally based biblical Christianity cannot co-exist. That's why I put a little stroke on the graphic. You've seen this graphic before, co-exist, where it has symbols of all the great faiths. The cross, the end, doesn't work. Christianity is not compatible with any other religion. The Lord knows who are his and his covenant people. and they will not be compatible with any coexistence. To achieve the aim of the theosophists and the globalists, mirrored in the aims of the United Nation, of being the catalyst for the harmonization of all world religions, in order to achieve those aims, there's only one thing that can happen, and that is that biblical Christianity must be eliminated. It has to be. because it is the single obstinate roadblock to a one world faith. Now you think about the implications of that. Everything else is in place. Everything else is ready to go. The leaders of the world's great religions will meet with the World Economic Forum and plot the downfall of the order of the world and establish their new world order where you will be a slave where you will owe nothing and be happy, apparently. The only thing that's in its way is that biblical Christianity says no. We don't want to be part of your globalist religion. We don't want to be part of your satanic cult. Have you ever noticed that Christianity is the least protected religion in this world? Don't you say anything about Muhammad. There's new laws coming. There's new laws coming on Islamophobia. They're talking about it now. They're bringing it to Parliament. They're working it up. You'll not be allowed to say anything about Islam, even if it's historically accurate, even if it's true, because it might cause Islamophobia. But you can say anything you want about Christianity. The least protected religion in the world There are Christians being persecuted in countries all over this world, and there's no outcry. There's widespread persecution of Christians. There's media and entertainment industries that are mocking and vilifying Christianity. Have you watched some of the soaps where the Christian vicar is always the homosexual? He's always the one with the difficulties of the broken marriages and the alcoholism. He's the worst character in the set, or he's totally ineffective. You wouldn't have an imam in one of those programs. You can mock, you can vilify Christianity, and it'll pass with little or no comment from the mainstream media. are from most UK politicians. And in Matthew 24, Jesus warned, in verse 9, then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you. And ye shall be hated of all nations. For my name's sake, can't you see it happening? What are we going to do? Let me finish with a few remarks. I'm sorry for keeping you so long. In Psalm 11, the psalmist asks an important question. He asks, if the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? I often quote that verse when we're speaking about social collapse and their disastrous results when fundamental principles are removed. And don't we see that in our society? Marriage being destroyed, being attacked, life being devalued, babies being aborted, voluntary euthanasia coming in, More than that. Education being destroyed. Libraries being used to indoctrinate children. Sexuality. Fundamental principles being removed. I can do no better than to repeat the prescription that I offered to the people at Ballymuckashan when we face the uncertainty of the new year 2025, and that is in the midst of all of these things, to trust in the Lord. David was Israel's king when he wrote those verses. He knew what would happen if his enemies would triumph over him. Law and order grounded in righteousness and justice would crumble. It's crumbling around us right now. If the foundations be destroyed, don't expect justice in the courts. evil and chaos are ensuing, but our trust as David's trust is in the Lord. Psalm 11 and verse 4, the Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven, his eyes behold, his eyelids try the children of men. In these dark ages in which we live, when we see the buildup of the globalist attempt to create the conditions for the coming forth of the final Antichrist, our trust must be in God in these last days. Don't trust in men. Don't trust in King Charles. I saw some people tweeting a few weeks ago, why does the king not do something? I'll tell you why. The king doesn't want to do anything. He's part of it. They let us down. Many will betray us. Let us trust in the Lord, and trust in the Lord alone. An exercise discernment. Psalm 11 in verse 3 talks about people having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof from such turn away. That's not Psalm 11. I don't know what I've done there. But essentially what Paul is talking about in that text is exhorting Timothy to be fully aware. It's in 2 Timothy. to be fully aware of the dangerous times in which he's living, not to be complacent about this age. Someone once said that the worst virus affecting mankind and afflicting mankind at this present is not the coronavirus or the bird flu or the monkey pox, it's the ostrich pox. It's that disease where people just want to bury their heads in the sand and refuse to see what is blatantly obvious going on around them. And that's sadly in most of the churches. We're to be aware of the circumstances in which we live. Paul makes it clear that men will try to lead us away from the truth in 2 Timothy. Away from God into the snare of the devil. And they may even appear to be religious people. So we must exercise discernment. We must test every truth claim. We must question every news broadcast. We must do research. We must weigh everything up against God's word. And if we find a charlatan, a man or a woman who fits The description that Paul gave of those who are against God and His Word, we are to reject them and turn away from them and avoid them. So trust in the Lord and exercise some discernment and establish links with like-minded others and fellowship with like-minded believers. We need to band together. Marakhi 3 and 16 says, They that feared the Lord spoke often one to another. The Lord hearkened and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord and that thought upon his name. We need to form networks, groups of like-minded Christian brothers and sisters outside the mainstream in days to come for mutual support for help, and that will grow all the more necessary as they inflict upon us the digital ID and its inevitable consequence, a digital currency. Trust in the Lord and exercise discernment, establish networks, and remember this world is not our home. Hebrews 3, 13 says, let us go forth there onto him without the camp. Bearing his reproach, for here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come. We stand outside the culture of this world. We owe allegiance to another kingdom, to another king. And whatever way this nations and the nations of this world may develop, in the days that lie ahead. And some of you are a lot younger than I am, and you will see more of it than I will see. But do remember that our citizenship is in heaven. For our conversation, says Paul, our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
