William Cooper's Mystery Babylon: Part 07 – Ecumenism

Transcribed by wakingup72 @ http://www.waronyou.com/forums

Good evening, folks, and once again, welcome to the Hour of the Time. I'm William Cooper.


(opening music: The Great Pretender, performed by The Platters)


Don't forget, folks, don't forget. March 15th, 8pm, Lafayette Hotel, 2223 El Cajon Blvd, San Diego. I'll be there...

(William Cooper plugs an appearance and asks for donations to stay on the air)


Now folks, the Dallas Morning News on October 1st, 1989 published this story: "Anglican Leader Calls For Unity Under Pope." The byline is, "Associated Press - ROME: Anglican leader Archbishop Robert Runcie called Saturday for all Christians to accept the Roman Catholic Pope as a common leader, presiding in love. 'For the Universal Church, I renew the plea,' he said. 'Could not all Christians come to reconsider the kind of primacy the Bishop of Rome, the Pope, exercised within the early church?'" Again, folks, that was the Dallas Morning News, October 1st, 1989.

This story appeared in the Bakersfield Californian, August 27th, 1989: "Baptist and Catholic Theologians Find Common Ground. Associated Press - NEW YORK: Southern Baptists and Roman Catholics, the nation's two largest denominations, generally have been regarded as doctrinally far apart, but their scholars find they basically agree. The 163-page report is seen as the most full scale mutual examination of respective positions of the two traditions. Achieving it was an unprecedented experience for Southern Baptists, commonly averse to accumentical affairs. The talks, sponsored by the Catholic Bishop's Committee on Accumentical and Inter-religious Affairs and the Southern Baptists Department of Interfaith Witness, involved eighteen meetings between 1978 and 1988." Again, that appeared in the Bakersfield Californian, August 27th, 1989.

Now, I want you to listen to me very carefully during this broadcast, for the message tonight is extremely important, and understand that I am not attacking Catholics or anyone else. I am merely giving you the results of our research, and sometimes the results of this research is disturbing. It shows how we've been misled and deceived over hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of years. You see, folks, more wars have been fought and more blood has been shed in the name of religion than any other cause - perhaps all other causes. Countless millions have been slaughtered in the name of God, Allah, Buddha, Mohamed, Christ, for thousands of years. Christian killing Jew, Jew hating Muslim, the Muslim against the Hindu, Christian fighting Christian, Shiite versus Suni, Sikh against Hindu. Endless rivers of blood, supposedly shed to rid the world of evil men and make way for peace. And, of course, it never happens.

And that's what they say about this New World Order, that's it going to rid the world of evil men and make way for a thousand years of peace. Well, is it possible for people of varied faiths and cultures to live at peace in this world? When one considers the fragmentation and division, even among Christians, or the neverending conflict between Palestinian and Jew, prospects for peace seem very, very dim. Some, aware of the dark record of history, would abolish all religion. Some would combine all religion, as is the intent in the New World Order, and anyone who refused will simply be exterminated.

Today, something unmatched in history is taking place. Leading statesmen and religious leaders are proposing a New World Order, a plan that many sincerely believe can bring peace on earth. A unity is envisioned that will transcend instinctive barriers that have long separated cultures and religions.

Significant progress toward a New World Order is seen in the spirit of ecumenism, or togetherness, now being urged by prominent religious leaders, and being brought to reality, to fruition, by the World Council of Churches [WCC]. In the ecumenical plan, basic theological or ideological differences are set aside, while emphasis is instead placed upon those elements common to most religions. And I can tell you that the new world religion will be a religion that serves man, because man is to become god in the New World Order. And the religion will change with the needs of man. Could the long, desired universal peace be just around the corner? Could this succeed? Is it actually possible for man to forge a lasting peace on the anvil of compromise? Or could it be that we are naively forging not a New World Order, but rather the one-world order of apocalyptic prophecy? Or is it all an invention of the mind of man throughout the ages to manipulate large masses and populations of people?

I make no judgment, and I do not try to answer all of these questions. You must do that in your own mind, but I must ask those questions, for many of you have never even thought to ask them. While controversial, folks, it is not the purpose of this program, the Hour of the Time, to disparage or attack the honest convictions of any sincere persons, whatever their politic or faith, for am I true Constitutionist, and I believe that we each have the right to believe whatever we wish, no matter who likes it or dislikes it, and worship at the altar of whichever god we choose, no matter who likes it or who dislikes it. It happens to be one of the precepts of living in freedom. You must understand that. No one's right to believe what they want or practice the religion that they want can be hindered until the practice of that religion, or the activation of those beliefs, infringe upon the freedom of someone else. Now, I sincerely, in my heart and in my soul, believe this. Without this belief, man cannot live in freedom; it must be subjected to slavery, and any intelligent, free-thinking person can quickly make that connection. That is why, even if you do not like the ravings of the Nazi speaker standing on the street corner, he must be allowed to stand and rave. And if you wish to listen, that is your business. If you wish to close your ears and walk away, that also is your business. But when you shut him up, you shut yourself up, no matter who you are or what it is that you say. For what we do to one, we do to all. Therefore, understand that this is a program bringing you information and, we hope, education. It is not designed to attack anyone, but merely to shine some light in the dark corners of history, where light has not been found before.

You see, our purpose is bring out facts and principles, which have a bearing upon coming events. For those of you who may not realize it, this is not a religious show. This is not a religious show. This is a show that is designed to educate. Illuminate, if you will, and that's very ironic, because we are illuminating those who call themselves, "Illumined," who have been causing us misery for thousands of years. We're trying to reveal the hidden agenda behind the New World Order, and along with it the ecumenical movement that almost no one dares to discuss, which is a part of the bringing about of the New World Order.

But you see, folks, these issues must be freely discussed no matter who you are or what you believe, for those who know history know that history repeats. And those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat the history. As Winston Churchill once observed, folks, "The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you can see." And that is really the secret why my predictions have been so accurate, so accurate that, at this moment, I am the most successful and accurate prophet on the face of this earth. But I am not really a prophet, I am a messenger. And they're not prophecy that I give you, they're predictions based upon actual study, research, of history, and of the plan of those who call themselves the "Guardians of the Secrets of the Ages," the practicers of that religion called Mystery Babylon. And it is real, and it doesn't matter whether you believe in any of this or not. If the practitioners believe it, it will affect you, especially if they hold powerful positions in the world, and I can assure you that they do. So, this is not a religious program, folks, it just happens to be true that the New World Order is founded upon the religious history of the past. And it is all about religion, as you will soon see.


[Reading from The Great Controversy, written by Ellen White]:


"When Jesus revealed to His disciples the fate of Jerusalem and the scenes of the second advent, He foretold also the experience of His people from the time when He should be taken from them, [until] His return in power and glory for their deliverance."

[William Cooper]: This is what the Bible says.

"In a few brief utterances of awful significance, Jesus foretold the portion which the rulers of this world would mete out to the church of God in Matthew chapter 24, verse 9, verse 21 and verse 22."

[William Cooper]: Now, the reason I am quoting this is because, if what is happening is being brought about by religious history, then we must understand the religious history, and the books, and the chapters, and the verses that this religious history is based upon. For whatever belief is driving the minds of the men that are bringing about the New World Order, and the minds of the men who are fighting the New World Order, it must be understood by all the rest of us who don't understand any of this, or we are surely lost.

"The history of the early church testified to the fulfillment of Jesus' words...[As] the fires of persecution were kindled, Christians were stripped of their possessions and driven from their homes...Great numbers sealed with their testimony in blood. Noble and slave, rich or poor, [it didn't matter] learned and ignorant, were alike slain without mercy."

[William Cooper]: And unless what is coming is stopped, this will repeat itself.

"These persecutions, beginning under Nero the emperor of Rome, A.D. 55 to 68, about the time of martyrdom of Paul, continued with greater or less fury for centuries. Christians were falsely accused of the most dreadful crimes, and declared to be the cause of all the calamities--famine, pestilence, and earthquake...They were condemned as rebels against the empire as enemies of religion and pests to society. Great numbers were thrown to wild beasts or burned alive in the amphitheaters. Some were crucified; others were covered with the skins of wild animals and thrust into the arena to be torn by dogs...Vast multitudes assembled to enjoy these sights and greeted their dying agonies with laughter and applause."

[William Cooper]: For, in that day, it was known as the great Roman Circus [Maximus] -- the football, the Super Bowl of that era.

"[Because they] were hunted like beasts of prey, [the early Christians were] forced to seek concealment in desolate and solitary places...Beneath the hills outside the city of Rome, long galleries were tunneled through earth and rock; the dark and intricate network of passages extended for miles beyond the city walls. In these underground retreats the followers of Christ buried their dead...When the Life-giver shall [return to] awaken those who fought the good fight, many a martyr for Christ's sake will come forth from those gloomy [catacombs].

[William Cooper]: In vain were Satan's, or Lucifer's efforts to destroy the church of Christ by violence. You see, God's workmen were slain, but his work went steadily forward. Said a Christian, "You may torment, afflict and vex us. The more we are mowed down, the more we spring up again. The blood of Christians is seed [Tertullian, in his Apology, paragraph 50]."

"Thousands were imprisoned and slained, but others sprang up to fill their place...[Now the] Great Adversary [who Christians believe is Satan, also known as Lucifer, but whom the Mystery Schools believe is Jehovah or Yahweh, through adversary] endeavored to gain by artifice what he had failed to secure by force. Persecution ceased, and in its [place] were substituted the dangerous allurements and temporal prosperity and worldly honor."

[William Cooper]: For if it they could not stamp out the Christians by violence, by killing them, by crucifying them, by throwing them to the lions and to the dogs and to the gladiators...if they could not get rid of them in that manner, and if the empire was threatened by them, then there had to be a way to save the Roman Empire, to save the emperor from that pestilence known as Christianity.

"Idolaters were led to receive a part of the Christian faith, while they rejected other essential truths. They professed to accept Jesus as the Son of God and to believe in His death and resurrection, but they had no conviction of sin and felt no need of repentance or of a change of heart. [And] with some concessions on their part, they proposed that Christians should make concessions, that all might unite on the platform of belief in Christ.

"Now, the church was in fearful peril. Prison, torture, fire and sword were blessings in comparison with this. Some of the Christians stood firm, declaring that they could make no compromise. Others were in favor of yielding or modifying some features of their faith and uniting with those who accepted a part of Christianity, urging that this might be the means of their full conversion...[And] that was a time of deep anguish [for] the faithful followers of Christ [William Cooper: according to the written history of the Christian religion]...

"...This compromise between Paganism and Christianity resulted in the development of 'the man of sin', foretold in prophecy as opposing and exalting himself above God...

"The apostle Paul, in his second letter to the Thessalonians, foretold the great apostasy which would result in the establishment of the papal power. He declared that the day of Christ should not come, 'except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.'"

[William Cooper]: 2 Thessalonians, chapter 2, verses 3 and 4, and that prophecy has come true. As man stands in the temple of the body today and declares himself to be God. And furthermore, the apostle warned his brethren, that the mystery of iniquity doth already worked. And what is the mystery of iniquity? It is the Mystery Religion of Babylon, the worship of the heavens, the Osirian cycle, of which the sun is the symbol of the intellect.

"Even at that early date he saw, creeping into the church, errors that would prepare the way for the development of...[that] gigantic system of false religion, a masterpiece of Satan's power--a monument of his efforts to seat himself upon the throne and rule the earth according to his will...

"...The nominal conversion of [the Roman emperor] Constantine, in the early part of the fourth century, caused great rejoicing; and the world, cloaked with a form of righteousness, walked into the church. Paganism, while appearing the be vanquished, became the conqueror...[Pagan doctrine], ceremonies, and superstitions were incorporated into the faith and worship of the professed followers of Christ."

[William Cooper]: And the ten commandments were changed to permit idols in the church, and other changes were made. You see, the day of rest was changed from the seventh day to the first day. Why? Because the first day was the date that the pagan religion worshiped the Sun: Osiris, the Light, Lucifer, the intellect. And so, the pure and simple teachings of Christ were corrupted beyond recognition.


[reading from The Present Truth, written by Bishop Stephen D. Lewis]:


"[As Christians] consented to lower their standards, a union was formed between Christianity and paganism. Though the worshipers of idols professed to be converted, [they] united with the church [still clinging] to their idolatry, only changing the objects of their worship to images of Jesus, and even of Mary and the saints."

[William Cooper]: But they still worshiped the same gods, and they always have. If you look at an aerial view of the Vatican, you will see that the outer courtyard is a round temple of the sun, exactly as the druids and the Celts built. And that in the center of this temple to the sun, to Osiris, stands the symbol of the Lost Word of Freemasonry: the phallus, the generative force, the penis of Osiris, the obelisk. You see, folks, the Roman Empire never fell. It just became the Catholic church. And the Roman emperor merely changed his name from "emperor" to "pope". Now, for those of you who may think that I'm crazy and that I have lost my mind, I'm going to read you verbatim from a book, entitled Dungeon, Fire and Sword. It is the complete history of the Knights Templar and the Crusades, written by John J. Robinson, author of Born in Blood. And I'm going to start at the second -- third paragraph on page 414, in the chapter entitled, Jesus Wept (1292-1305). That's a date -- those are dates, folks.

"In London, Edward sent for the master of the Knights Templar in England, Brian De Jaye. He told the master of his plans to chastise the upstart William Wallace in Scotland and ask that the Templar Knights go with him to fight for England. The temple master saw no barrier to committing his knights to a totally secular war that had nothing to do with religion or the true cross. It had been years since the fighting men of the temple had had anyone to fight. The calls for men and money no longer came from the headquarters in the east. They had no need for them. No monarch they knew in Europe was going to go on a Crusade, even if the Pope should call it, which he wouldn't, because the Pope had something much more important on his mind. Boniface VIII had came up with a way to increase the papal treasury, a way that could only come up once in a hundred years. The following year of 1299 marked the turn of a century, and Boniface would turn the usual secular celebration into a jubilee of joy for all Christians. Now there would be new pathways to the total remission of sins, much easier than going off on Crusades. Full absolution was offered to any pilgrim who would come to Rome for fifteen days with his offering for the church, and thus he could fill his coffers.

"Even at his most optimistic, the Pope had not foreseen the flood of pilgrims that would bring new prosperity to Rome. The local merchants and innkeepers were delighted with the business generated by almost two million pilgrims. Two priests stood all day and night behind the altar at the church of St. Paul, using rakes to drag away the steady stream of gold and silver offerings placed there by pilgrims who pushed their way through the mob to leave their gifts.

"Boniface VIII was ecstatic He remembered the words said to him as the papal crown had been placed on his head: 'Take the tiara, and know that thou art the father of princes and kings, the ruler of the world, the vicar on earth of our savior, Jesus Christ.' Now, he indeed felt like the ruler of the world as he staged a regal pageant He put on the dress and the insignia of the ancient Roman emperors and went out into the streets with two swords, held high in front of him, indicating his supreme authority over both the secular and the spiritual worlds, with heralds crying out, 'Behold! I am Caesar!'"

[William Cooper]: And this is just one example, because all through history, the Popes have, on occasion, made public admittance of the fact that Rome just became the church. Displayed on the walls of the Vatican is the double-headed eagle, the insignia of only one man who has ever lived: the emperor of Rome. Now so I may not be accused of invention, folks, everything that I am giving you in this broadcast is coming right out of the writings of the historians of the Catholic church, of the Protestant church, of the Roman Empire, of the Knights Templar, and many others. You see, I'm not inventing any of this; it happens to be historical fact. And if you have eyes and can see, the emperor, now the Pope, to gain converts from heathenism, unsounded doctrine, superstitious rites, and the adoration of images and relics, were gradually introduced into Christendom worship.


(continuing from The Great Controversy, written by Ellen White):


"The decree of a general council [the second council of Nice, A.D. 787] finally established this system of [Christian] idolatry. To complete the sacrilegious work, Rome presumed to [erase] the second commandment forbidding image worship [from the law of God], and to divide the tenth commandment...to preserve the number..."

"[According to Christian historians and the Protestant church] Satan...tampered with the fourth commandment also, and [purposed] to set aside the ancient Sabbath, the day which God had blessed and sanctified [in Genesis, chapter 2, verse 2 and 3], and in its stead to exalt the festival observed by the heathen as 'the venerable day of the sun.' This change was not at first attempted openly. In the first centuries the true Sabbath had been kept by all Christians. They were jealous for the honor of God, and...they zealously guarded the sacredness of its precepts. But with great subtlety Satan worked through his agents to bring about his object."

[William Cooper]: Now don't go away folks, we've got to take a short break. We'll be right back after this short pause.


(break music: Ain't No Sunshine, written by Bill Withers)


[continuing from The Great Controversy, written by Ellen White]:


"[Early in] the fourth century the emperor Constantine issued a decree making Sunday a public festival throughout the Roman Empire. The day of the sun was reverenced by his pagan subjects and was honored by Christians; it was the emperor's policy to unite the conflicting interests of heathenism and Christianity [to save the Roman Empire]. He was urged to do this by the bishops of the church, who...perceived that if the same day was observed by both Christians and [the] heathen, it would promote the nominal acceptance of Christianity by pagans and thus advance the power and glory of the church."


(reading from Is the Virgin Mary Dead or Alive):


"But while [most] Christians were gradually regard Sunday as possessing a degree of sacredness, [some] still held the true Sabbath...holy [and they continued to observe] it in obedience to the fourth commandment...

"[Now, they believe that] Satan had led the Jews, before the advent of Christ, to load down the Sabbath with the most rigorous exactions, making its observance a burden...[He casts] contempt upon it as a Jewish institution...[until finally the pagan Sunday came] to be honored as a divine institution...While the Bible [Sabbath] was pronounced as a relic of Judaism, and its observers were [at last] declared to be accursed."

[William Cooper]: And the outcome of this, is that the Jews had been persecuted throughout history. They had become the scapegoat that you learned about in an earlier broadcast.

"The spirit of concession to paganism opened the way for a still further disregard of Heaven's authority."


(reading from The Great Controversy):


"[The visible head of the church, the pope] came to be almost universally acknowledged as the [vicegerent] of God on earth, [and he was] endowed with authority over church and state...More than this, the pope [appropriated] the very titles of Deity. [He styled himself] 'Lord God the Pope,' [assumed infallibility, and demanded that all men pay him homage]...

"...Faith was transferred from Christ, the true foundation [of the Christian church], to the pope of Rome. Instead of trusting in [Christ] for forgiveness of sins and for eternal salvation, people looked to the pope, and to the priests and prelates to whom he delegated authority. They were taught that the pope was their earthly mediator and that none could approach God except through him; and, further, that he stood in the place of God to them and was therefore to be implicitly obeyed. A deviation from his requirements was [sufficient] cause for the severest punishment to be visited upon the bodies and souls of the offenders. [Through this error] the people were turned from God to fallible, erring...men."

[William Cooper]: Blasphemous titles claimed for the Pope had embellished and enlarged over the centuries, but a few of these boastful claims appear in an ecclesiastical Roman Catholic dictionary. I'm taking this right out of a Roman Catholic dictionary by Lucius Ferraris, entitled Prompta Bibliothecca Canonica, volume 6, pages 438 and 442, article, Pope, the Catholic Encyclopedia, 1813 edition, volume 6, page 48, speaks of this book as "a veritable encyclopedia of religious knowledge and a precious mine of information." Those are the words of the Vatican. "The Pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were, God and the vicar of God." Remember, the Roman emperors were deified. "Hence, the pope is crowned with a triple crown as King of heaven and of earth and of the lower regions." That is an exact word-for-word description of Osiris. "So that if it were possible that the angels might err in the faith or think contrary to the faith, they could be judged and excommunicated by the pope."

[William Cooper]: "The pope is, as it were, God on earth, sole sovereign of the faithful of Christ, chief King of Kings, having plenitude of power to whom has been entrusted by the omnipotent God direction, not only of the earthly, but also of the heavenly kingdom." If that's not blasphemy, according to the definition, then I don't know what is, folks.

[William Cooper]: "The Pope can modify divine law, as since his power is not of man, but of God." The Pope can modify divine law? Well, you see that he did. He changed the day of rest dictated by God from the seventh day to the first day, and he changed the ten commandments to allow the worship of idols. But the doctrine of papal supremacy is directly opposed to the teachings of any scripture that I am able to find. "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and Him only shalt thou serve." That's in Luke, chapter 4, verse 8. God has never given a hint in His word that He appointed any man but Christ to be the head of the church. The bible exalts God, and places finite man in their true position. The Pope has no power over Christ's church except by usurpation, and that's true only if you are a Christian. If you are Jew, if you are a Muslim, if you are a Buddhist, none of that is true, is it?

"[By the] sixth century [folks] the papacy [was] firmly established. Its seat of power was fixed in the imperial city, and the bishop of Rome was declared to be head over the entire church...[William Cooper: Pagan Rome had given place to the papal Rome]...The accession of the Roman church to power marked the beginning of the Dark Ages. As her power increased, the darkness of superstition and error deepened...

"Those were days of peril for the church of Christ. Faithful standard-bearers were few...at times it seemed that error and superstition would wholly prevail, and true religion would be banished from the earth. The gospel was lost sight of, but the forms of religion were multiplied...

"[People] were taught not only to look to the pope as their mediator, but to trust to works of their own for sin. Long pilgrimages, acts of penance, the worship of relics, the erection of churches, shrines, and altars, the payment of large sums to the church--these and many similar acts were enjoined to appease the wrath of God or to secure His favor; as if God were like men, to be angered at trifles, or pacified by gifts or acts of penance!"

[William Cooper]: And even then, the church still worshiped the old gods. For in dismantling churches for renovation throughout Europe, throughout Europe, without exception, and the older the church, the more likely it was to be true. Enshrined within the altar, out of sight of the priests and the worshipers, were found stone penises, symbols of the Lost Word of Freemasonry, the phallus of Osiris, the generative force of the pagan religion of the worship of the sun, the light, Lucifer, the intellect. This is historic fact. This is not invention, but fact.

"About the close of the 8th century, papists put forth the claim that in the first ages of the church the bishops of Rome had possessed the same spiritual power which they now assumed. To establish this claim...Ancient writings were forged by monks [William Cooper: and it has been proven they were forged]. Decrees of councils before unheard of were discovered, establishing the universal supremacy of the pope from the earliest times. And a church that had rejected the truth greedily accepted these deceptions...

"...Another step in papal assumption was taken, when, in the eleventh century, Pope Gregory VII proclaimed the perfection of the Roman church. Among the propositions which he put forth was one declaring that the church had never erred, nor would it ever err, according to the Scriptures."

[William Cooper]: But I wonder what they told Galileo when they imprisoned him for being right that the Earth revolved around the sun, and that the Earth was not the center of the universe, and that the universe did not revolve around the Earth. I wonder what they told Galileo. How did they justify being right, when they were obviously wrong? And not only with Galileo, but Giordano Bruno and many others. Many, many others as a matter of fact, many of whom were burned at the stake for daring to disagree with was then considered to be politically correct. For many of them had discovered scientific truths, and when they espouse these truths, were declared to be heretics, and were burned at the stake because the pope declared these truths to be falsehoods. And that, folks, was the birth of the doctrine known as "political correctness." And you see it reappearing now, where truths are again declared to be false, because they are not politically correct. What are you going to accept in this world?

[William Cooper]: Now, once again, I want to tell you: we're not attacking anyone. I care not what you believe. I care not what altar you worship at, for I am a true Constitutionist. It makes no difference to any of you what my religion is, although I will freely tell you that I attempt in my daily life to follow the true words of Christ, not the doctrine or the preachings of any church or any evangelist or any book, but those words attributed to Christ and only to Christ. And, as the rock upon which those words stand, the ten commandments as given to Moses by God. That is the sum total of my religion, of my beliefs, of what I practice in my daily life. I'm not asking you to do that at all, but I am asking everyone to quit accepting what they are told. To begin an honest, individual, personal search for the truth.

[William Cooper]: For we can no longer live in deception, we can no longer live the lies of the past. Great change lies ahead of us, folks. Change will come, whether we want it or not, for that is the way of the world and the way of the universe. And if we are still living in lies and deceptions and manipulations, then that change will be for the bad, just as it has as always been throughout the history of the world. And blood with flow and people will suffer all in the name, once again, of religion. And I, for one, am sick of it. Sick of it! We must discover the truth and we must lead our lives by the truth, and we must take the truth into the future, and we must determine the future from the truth, and nothing else. Nothing else. For if we do not, those who have decided that they are the only truly mature minds and, thus, the only ones capable of rule because the rest of us do not use our intelligence and, thus, are beasts of burden and steaks on the table by choice and consent -- no better than animals who do not have intelligence...they have determined that they are going to shackle us, once again, in slavery because we cannot control ourselves, or rule ourselves, or live by the truth. This is what they have determined, right or wrong, whether you believe them or whether you believe that they know what they claim that they know, or not. It is what they have determined and, I assure you, they are in control right now. Right now, right this moment. And in this country, their headquarters is in a temple without windows exactly thirteen blocks from the White House: the headquarters of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry.

"[Now, when the pope declared] that the church never erred, nor would it ever err according to the scriptures...the [Scriptural] proofs did not accompany the assertion. [Next, the] proud pontiff also claimed the power to depose emperors, and declared that no sentence which he pronounced could be reversed by anyone, but that it was his prerogative to reverse the decisions of all others...

"...The advancing centuries witnessed a constant increase of error in the doctrines put forth from Rome. Even before the establishment of the papacy the teachings of heathen philosophers had received attention and exerted an influence in the church...Prominent among these was the belief in man's natural immortality and his consciousness in death. This doctrine laid the foundation upon which Rome established the invocation of saints and the adoration of the Virgin Mary. From this sprang also the heresy of eternal torment for the finally impenitent, which was early incorporated into the papal faith."

[William Cooper]: And thus, once again, the worship of Osiris, and Mary, and the child, Horus, disguised under different names, emerged as a religion from the veil out into the open. The only thing that has changed is the names.

"Then the way was prepared for the introduction of still another invention of paganism, which Rome named purgatory, and employed to terrify the credulous and superstitious multitudes. By this heresy is affirmed the existence of a place of torment, in which the souls of such as have not merited eternal damnation are to suffer punishment for their sins, and from which, when freed from impurity, they are admitted to heaven...

"...The Scriptural ordinance of the Lord's Supper had been supplanted by the idolatrous sacrifice of the mass. Papal priests pretended, by their senseless mummery, to convert the simple bread and wine into the actual 'body and blood of Christ.' [William Cooper: And those are the exact words, 'body and blood of Christ,' written by Cardinal Wiseman], The Real Presence of the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Blessed Eucharist, Proved From Scripture, lecture 8, sec. 3, par. 26."

[William Cooper]: But no scripture is quoted.

"With blasphemous presumption, they openly claimed the power of creating God, the Creator of all things. [All] Christians were required, on pain of death, to avow their faith in this horrible, Heaven-insulting heresy. Multitudes who refused were given to the flames [were burned at the stake]..."

[William Cooper]: Is it any wonder that the invisible college, the, worshipers of Mystery Babylon, those who call themselves the "Guardians of the Secrets of the Ages," hate Christianity?

"...Still another fabrication was needed to enable Rome to profit by the fears and the vices of her adherents. This was supplied by the doctrine of indulgences. Full remission of sins, past, present, and future, and release from all the pains and penalties incurred, were promised to all who would enlist in the pontiff's wars to extend his temporal dominion, to punish his enemies, or to exterminate those who dared deny his spiritual supremacy. The people were also taught that by the payment of money to the church they might free themselves from sin, and [also] release the souls of their deceased friends who were confined in the tormenting flames. By such means [did] Rome fill her coffers and sustain the magnificence, luxury, and vice of the pretended representatives of Him who had not where to lay His head."

[William Cooper]: And the old Roman Empire flourished under the guise of the Vatican, the papacy, the Catholic church.

"...In the thirteenth century was established that most terrible of all the engines of the papacy--the Inquisition. The prince of darkness wrought with the leaders of the papal hierarchy. In their secret councils Satan and his angels controlled the minds of evil men [who invented tortures] too horrible to appear to human eyes. 'Babylon the great' was 'drunken with the blood of the saints.' The mangled forms of millions of martyrs cried to God for vengeance upon that apostate power."

[William Cooper]: This is word to word [sic] from history, folks.

"Popery had become the world's despot. Kings and emperors bowed to the decrees of the Roman pontiff. The destinies of men, both for time and for eternity, seemed under his control. For hundreds of years the doctrines of Rome had been extensively and implicitly received, its rites reverently performed, [and] its festivals generally observed. Its clergy were honored and liberally sustained...But 'the noon of the papacy was the midnight of the world.' [That was written by] J. A. Wylie, The History of Protestantism[, b. 1, ch. 4.]"

[William Cooper]: Now, Protestantism is not lily-white, either. I use that term, "lily-white," because throughout history it's been used to describe good, when in fact, in many instances, there's nothing good about it whatsoever. Protestantism, folks, began in the Reformation, when Martin Luther rebelled against the Pope. But did you know that Martin Luther used, as his personal seal, the rose and the cross? Revealing that he, himself, he himself was an initiate of the Mystery School, the ancient religion of Babylon. You see, I'm not attacking anyone, and I'm not putting anyone on a pedestal I'm not tearing down the Vatican in order to build up the Protestant church, for they are equally guilty. Protestantism has fractured the teachings of Christ into thousands of sects and cults and little groups, all of them professing to know the truth. None of them really do.

"The Holy Scriptures were almost unknown, not only to the people, but to the priests...God's law, the standard of righteousness [in those days], having been removed, [papist leaders] exercised power without limit, and practiced vice without restraint. Fraud, avarice, and profligacy prevailed. Men shrank from no crime by which they could gain wealth or position. The palaces of popes and prelates were scenes of the vilest debauchery. Some of the reigning pontiffs were guilty of crimes so revolting that secular rulers endeavored to depose these dignitaries of the church as monsters too vile to be tolerated. For centuries Europe had made no progress in learning, arts, or civilization. A moral and intellectual paralysis had fallen upon [the world]."

[William Cooper]: "The noon of the papacy," according to history, "was the midnight of the world."

"...Foremost among those who were called to lead the church from the darkness of popery into the light of a purer faith, stood Martin Luther."

[William Cooper]: And this is what people believe, but Martin Luther himself was an initiate of the Mystery Schools, a follower of the faith of Mystery Babylon, as was the Pope and the hierarchy of the Catholic church. You see, but they were vying for the rulership of the world, and up until not too long ago, have always had throughout history. For the Vatican practices the corrupted worship of Mystery Babylon, the combination of Christianity and the worship of Mystery Babylon, whereas the Mystery Schools retained the pure form of Mystery Babylon. And this is the only difference between the two, folks, and they have been vying throughout history for the rulership of the world: Mystery Babylon attempting to destroy the Pope and Christianity, and the Pope attempting to persecute and burn away the followers, the initiates of Mystery Babylon. And it has always been the goal of worshipers of Mystery Babylon to seat one of their own upon the throne of the Vatican, and they have succeeded. They have succeeded, folks, and now you are seeing the beginning of the combination of all religions into one-world religion. And while the world and the New Age movement may be waiting for the emergence of Maitreya, I tell you now here -- and remember that I have been the most accurate in making predictions about future world events then anyone in the history of the world -- based upon study and knowledge, not psychic ability, not any gift from God, although I am a messenger, I can assure you of that. I tell you that, in the New World Order, the one-world charismatic and religious leader will be seated upon the throne of Rome. Mark my words. And for those of you who do not understand yet, the Protestant religion was created by the Mystery Schools to bring down, bring down the authority of the Pope, just as this nation, the United States of America was created by the Mystery Schools to topple the monarchs, the kings and queens from their thrones.

[William Cooper]: You see, whatever you want to believe even, folks, is OK with me. Let's just believe from a position of knowing the truth.

Good night, and God bless each and every one of you.

Armed Man With Bomb Takes Employees Hostage Inside Discovery Channel Building

A man known for protesting the Discovery Channel stormed the network's Maryland headquarters carrying a handgun on Wednesday, taking a 'small number' of hostages while appearing to have a bomb strapped to his chest, police said.

The Montgomery County Police Department said Wednesday that they are negotiating with the man who is holding hostages on the ground floor of the building in Silver Spring, Md., a suburb directly north of Washington, D.C.

Discovery Communications told Fox News that the gunman is James Jay Lee of San Diego, Calif., a man well-known to Discovery employees with a history of protesting the network. Maryland police, however, have not yet confirmed the suspect's identity.

Montgomery County Police Chief J. Thomas Manger told reporters Wednesday that a male suspect entered the building and waved a handgun at approximately 1 p.m. Manger would not confirm how many shots, if any, were fired inside the building.

"We have no reports of injuries at this point," Manger said. "At this point, we're still negotiating with him."

One witness reported to Fox News that the suspect was wearing a vest that appeared to have two pipe bombs strapped to it.

Manger said the gunman was wearing "what appeared to be metallic canister devices" when he entered the building.

"The man told everyone to just stay still," Manger said.

Dan Friz, a spokesman with the Montgomery County Police Department, told Fox News that police were initially dispatched to the building after a report of shots fired at approximately 1 p.m.

The suspect, identified by police as an Asian male, has "some sort of device on him that may be explosive in nature," Friz said.

Some witnesses reported that the man fired a shot before declaring, "Nobody is going anywhere," police said.

The suspect is believed to have distributed a manifesto outside the building several weeks ago that called on the Discovery Channel to "broadcast to the world their commitment to save the planet."

The Zionist Deception Part 2: The Talmud

The Zionist Deception Part 2
The Talmud: The Zionist Handbook of Hate
By Pat Anderson

Since we explored in Part 1 that the Zionist has a bit of reluctance to define exactly what Zionism is, they leave it up to us to define them based on their actions and writings. We were given a wise piece of advice once long ago to “judge a tree by its fruits.” In doing so, we see plainly that Zionism is not the heroic protector of the Jews, nor does it only believe in the right of a Jewish state to exist as a refuge to save the Jews from the ever popular buzzword of anti-Semitism. It is a hateful, deceptive, and racist belief system. We see this in the fruits they display on a daily basis as they love to play victim while wiping out Palestinians. We see this daily in the wars that have sprung from the Zionist false flag perpetrated on 9/11/01.

In order to understand their actions, one must understand what it is that this particular group of individuals believes. Luckily, their writings are not as secret as some would have you believe. They are more what I would call taboo to speak or write about. Doing so once again brings forth the battle cry of “anti-Semite.” This conditions the average sheep to think and act in a certain way whenever hearing any disparaging remarks about these writings, and in some cases, such as The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion which will be covered later in this series, it is to be completely discounted as some sort of hoax perpetrated by those horrible “anti-Semites” and their message of hate. Of course, we have to completely ignore the similarities of events in the world around us and what is laid out in the Protocols. Nope, no connection there whatsoever.

As you can tell by the title I have picked for this piece, our focus is going to lie on the Talmud. The teachings laid out in this loving collection of writings dates back well before the time of Christ, just as do the teachings that are laid out in The Zohar which will also be covered later in this series. For the purposes of this section, I am going to focus more on what the Talmud teaches rather than the historical aspects of its roots. For it is what is written within it that we will begin to see where the modern day Zionist bases his point of view on the rest of the world.

Let’s begin by quoting some of the racist beliefs spouted by this “holy” book.

Choschen Hamm 388, 15

Happy will be the lost of Israel, whom the Holy One, blessed be He, has chosen from amongst the Goyim, of whom the Scriptures say: "Their work is but vanity, it is an illusion at which we must laugh; they will all perish when God visits them in His wrath." At the moment when the Holy One, blessed be He, will exterminate all the Goyim of the world, Israel alone will subsist, even as it is written: "The Lord alone will appear great on that day!...

Yikes! Exterminate all the Goyim? What are “the Goyim” you ask? Well, that would be me, you, and all of the rest of the people who are not deemed worthy. You see, according to this lovely collection of teachings, we’re not even men and women. We are cattle, unclean beasts to be used and manipulated at their whim. When you have the mindset that those around you are not even human, we begin to see how easy it is for these people to commit the atrocities they do without even the blink of an eye. Let’s see what else they think of us lowly Goys.

Tosefta, Tractate Erubin VIII

When a Jew has a Gentile in his clutches, another Jew may go to the same Gentile, lend him money and in turn deceive him, so that the Gentile shall be ruined. For the property of a Gentile, according to our law, belongs to no one, and the first Jew that passes has full right to seize it.

Well now, this should sound familiar to you all. How many stories have we read of the Zionists kicking the Palestinians out of their homes, in some cases even bulldozing homes while Palestinians remain inside? Do you begin to see how easy it is for them to do this with no remorse whatsoever? They believe themselves to be above everyone else. They consider the world to be theirs in the first place and therefore, they believe they may take whatever they wish from the gentiles (Goyim).

Now, I would like to pause for a moment to state one thing I believe to be fairly obvious. This is not what all Jews believe. There are many Jews out there that still believe in the teachings of the Torah (Old Testament). They believe this modern false “Israel” to be a complete abomination created by the Zionist Talmudic Jews. So before all the screams of “anti-Semite’ come rolling in from the weak minded, or the screams of the fools that believe every Jew on the planet is part of the schemes of the Zionists, I would like to state you are both wrong. It has to be understood that these deceivers, these Zionists hide behind the Jewish label like the little cowards they are. Many Jews, although not as many as I would like to see and that goes for every other “group” out there, see right through this and realize what is going on. This goes back much further than even the word “Jew” itself, and this will be explained in more depth as this series continues.

That being said, where were we? Ah yes, the wonderful teachings of the Talmud and how it correlates to the beliefs of the Zionists and is shown in their actions. Let’s continue.

Zohar, Shemoth, Toldoth Noah, Lekh-Lekha

Jehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is consequently an animal in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night.

Sanhedrin 57a

A Jew may rob a Goy, but a Goy may not rob a Jew. If a Goy murders another Goy or a Jew, he should be killed, but a Jew will not be incur the death penalty for killing a non-Jew.
Kill the Goyim by any means possible.

Once again, we see the pure elitist view in these statements. We are all animals here to serve them, and killing us? Hey, not a big deal. Also, pay close attention to how that last quote is worded. It is murder when committed by a Goy, and yet, for the Talmudic Jew, it is simply killing just as you would kill a rat.

Let’s do just one more to make sure I have driven home the point of this area of the Zionist beliefs.

Zohar, Vayshlah 177b

That the Jewish nation is the only nation selected by God, while all the remaining ones are contemptible and hateful.

That all property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which consequently is entitled to seize upon it without any scruples. An orthodox Jew is not bound to observe principles of morality towards people of other tribes. He may act contrary to morality, if profitable to himself or to Jews in general.

A Jew may rob a Goy, he may cheat him over a bill, which should not be perceived by him, otherwise the name of God would become dishonoured.


Did you catch that second part? You know, the very first sentence of the second paragraph? Let’s see that again.

That all property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which consequently is entitled to seize upon it without any scruples.

Wow, but of course, this sounds nothing like world domination and to say so is simply “anti-Semitic” you hateful bastard.

This is but a small part of the lovely things written in this collection of books called the Babylonian Talmud. It is partly in these teachings that the basis of the Zionist belief system comes from. These despicable “people” have no regard, none whatsoever, for you, your family, or anyone else, except those in their little clique, and even some of those in their little clique are simply useful idiots to their cause who will be tossed aside when their usefulness is done.

In our next part, we will continue to study some of the teachings of the Talmud and begin to touch upon the Zohar, and the Protocols, which in my opinion should be required reading at the elementary school level.

To be continued…

William Cooper's Mystery Babylon: Part 06 – Maitreya

Transcribed by luckee1 (edited/formatted by wakingup72 @ http://www.waronyou.com/forums)

=====================================================



I'm William Cooper and you're listening to the Hour of The Time.


(opening music: Hail, Hail, Rock and Roll, performed by Bart Simpson and Buster Poindexter)


[William Cooper advertises upcoming appearance in San Diego, asks for air time donations, and offers CAJI memberships]

Folks, something is wrong in America, no doubt about it. There’s a new religion appearing.


[reading from The New World Order, by Ralph Epperson]:


"[Many of you call it] the New Age religion [and it] appears to be the exact opposite of the Old Age religion, meaning the religion of the Jews and Christians."

[William Cooper]: It’s not really that different. I’ve studied it, I’ve talked to people who practice it. They claim it's not a religion but it is. Christ has ceased to be to become a man, the son of God, the actual manifestation of God in the flesh on earth and has become the consciousness, the Christ consciousness. And anyone can be Christ if they have this Christ consciousness in the New Age religion.



"[Now,] these are the two religions [-- the Christian religion and the Jewish religion --] that set the United States on its course because these religions taught that mankind had some basic human rights. They held that the family was the basic unit in all of the world; they believed in the right to private property; they believed in the unalienable ([which is] defined as being incapable of being surrendered) right to life; they held that each person had the right to worship their god; and they held that all had the right to freedom of association. As shall be so [disclosed during this series], these positions...were deemed to be 'self-evident' by those who wrote the American Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, [and] became the cornerstones of the American civilization. (The term 'self-evident' [folks] means that these human rights were not worthy of debate because they stood on their own, simply because they were true. They could not be debated [William Cooper: because they were Creator endowed, endowed by God].)

"Yet, [folks,] today, these cornerstones of American life are no longer 'self-evident' [to many.] They are being publicly discussed: people and organizations are now debating whether an individual has the basic human rights to life, liberty and property. [William Cooper: There's a great danger in this.]

"Frederick Wilhelm Nietzsche, a German philosopher, and one of the teachers of many of the world’s leading communist revolutionaries [William Cooper: in international socialists], put the argument quite succinctly, in this statement: 'I condemn Christianity. I raise against the Christian Church the most terrible of all accusations that any accuser uttered. [That] is to me the highest conceivable corruption.'"

[William Cooper]: Remember, the priests, the Initiates of the Mystery Schools believe that Christianity is a corruption of the Mysteries, the worship of Lucifer, represented by the sun, the light, Osiris.

"Texe Marrs, an author who has written in opposition to the New Age, wrote this about their hatred of the Christians: 'The New Age believers told, "You can be a god in the next instant if only those horrible Christians weren’t around with their poisonous attitudes."'

"That thought was illustrated by another of the important New Agers, David Spangler, who wrote this in his book, entitled Reflections on the Christ: 'We can take all the scriptures and all the teachings and all the tablets and all the laws and all the marshmallows and have a jolly good bonfire and marshmallow roast, because that is all they are worth.'

"So, the New Age, like the Masons, feel that Christianity is the enemy, a force to be countered, not by open debate, but by contempt and ridicule and, as shall be illustrated later, by even murder."

[William Cooper]: And, remember, the source of the New Age movement is the order of the Freemasons.

"Other parties wish to join the debate. In 1911, the Socialist Party of Great Britain published a pamphlet, entitled Socialism and Religion, in which they placed their position about religion into the arena: 'It is therefore a profound truth that Socialism is the natural enemy of religion. A Christian Socialist is in fact an anti-Socialist. Christianity...is the antithesis of Socialism.'

"So the Socialist, the New Ager, and the Mason have declared war on the Christians. And, as in every war, the enemy must be defeated, even by bloodshed, if necessary. This war has deep roots in history and I will cover those roots so that you will understand it perfectly where this came from. This war is no different. Bloodshed is anticipated by all parties in the battle.

"Lavedi Lafferty and Bud Hollowell, two New Agers, started the discussion about how their religion sanctions the use of violence against the Christian community. They wrote the following in their book, entitled The Eternal Dance: 'This is a time of opportunity for those who will take it [[apparently] meaning the New Agers [the Initiates of the Mystery Religions, Socialists].] For others [apparently the Christians] if the earth is unsuitable for them [if they will not accept the New Age religion] they will go on to other worlds.'"

[William Cooper]: Which simply means they will be exterminated. You better listen to me, folks, I am a messenger and my message is unmistakable and it had better not fall upon deaf ears. For those deaf ears will be rendered dead, in the coming New World Order.

"Another New Age spokesman, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the 'guru' sought out by the rock 'n roll group known as the Beatles [and others], has been quoted as saying: "There has not been and there will not be a place for the unfit...The fit will lead, and if the unfit are not coming along [if they will not accept the New Age religion] there is no place for them.

"'In the Age of Enlightenment, there is no place for ignorant people. Non-existence of the unfit has been the law of nature.'

"Another example of New Age thinking on this vital issue came from a pamphlet available in a book store selling New Age material. It was published by something called the Guardian Actions Publications of New Mexico and it was entitled Cosmic Countdown. [This pamphlet] alleged that it had received these thoughts from something called 'Higher Intelligence,' and it directed its attention to the hunger/disease problem in the third world. [And] the pamphlet simply stated: 'The world should be forewarned to be on a lookout for diseases which have been suppressed for years, suddenly rearing their ugly heads and decimating the populations already on the verge of starvation in the Third World Nations.

"'Although these peoples will eventually be replaced by the new root race about to make its appearance in a newly cleansed world; nevertheless, for the moment, this is a tragedy.'"

[William Cooper]: You see, they have made incredible admissions, but none of you are looking, none of you are reading, none of you are absorbing. In fact, most of you are so stupid that you think that the only thing you should read is what you personally believe in or agree with. How can you exist in this world ignorant of the opinions and the writings and the thoughts of everyone else, including your enemies?

"The words reveal an incredible scenario: [you see, these] people in the Third World nations are going to be entirely replaced by [what they call] a 'new root race.' That eventuality will not be a tragedy; the tragedy is that these people are dying now due to starvation and disease..."

[William Cooper: But when they die later, or they're all gone and they're replaced by the new root race, that won’t be a tragedy.

"The concept that a new race of people will inhabit the world in the New Age millennium has been expressed by other believers in the religion. Ruth Montgomery, previously mentioned, has written about that change: 'Those who survive the shift will be a different type of people from those in physical form today, freed from strife and hatred, longing to be of service to the whole of mankind...the souls who helped to bring on the chaos of the present century [apparently the Christians and the Jews] will have passed into spirit to rethink their attitudes.'

"To show that the New Agers are talking about the physical death of the 'enemy', one must only search the writings of other New Agers. Another believer to write on the subject of the destruction of those who will not accept the new religion was Ruth Montgomery. [And] she has been quoted as saying in a transcribed interview carried by a magazine called Magical Blend: 'Millions will survive and millions won’t. Those who won’t will go into the spirit state because there is truly no death.'

"Estimates of the number to perish have been made by some New Agers. One who has made such an estimate is John Randolph Price, who was quoted by Texe Marrs in his book about the New Age. [And] he said that: 'John Randolph Price was told by his spirit guide that up to two and one-half billion [2,500,000,000] might perish in the coming chaos.'"

[William Cooper]: And we already know that the goal of the plan called "Global 2000" is to deplete the population by two billion people by the year 2000.

"[Now] that estimate is about half of the current world population[: two and one-half billion].

"Another estimate of the number required to die because they will not accept the new religion was offered by the so-called 'Tibetan Master,' Djwhal Khul, who has said in one of his channeling experiences, that one-third of all humanity must die by the year 2000. That would be about two billion people [at least].

"Channeling is one of the strange activities occurring inside the New Age religion."

[William Cooper]: I have witnessed this and I could tell you most channelers are just fraudulent con artists who are taking the money of those who pay to hear this channeling from dead spirits or ancient teachers or other world spirits.

"Some of the believers claim that they have the ability to call forth the deceased spirit of someone who lived many years before. Quite often these spirits claim to be [the] 'ascended masters,' those who have gone on to discover the eternal truths of all creation. One such believer who claimed to be in touch with a 'master' was Alice Bailey, previously mentioned. Her spirit called himself Djwhal Khul, and she claimed he spoke through her, saying: 'Death is not a disaster to be feared; the work of the Destroyer is not cruel or undesirable...therefore, there is much destruction permitted by the Custodians of The Plan and much evil turned into good.'

"[Now] just what 'The Plan' constituted was told to the world by Benjamin Creme, another New Age leader. He placed an advertisement in about twenty newspapers all over the world on April the 25th, 1982, that defined the term. The ad read, in part: 'What is The Plan? It includes the installation of a new world government and new world religion under Maitreya.'

"But perhaps the most startling examples of the teachings of this new religion came from the pen of Barbara Marx Hubbard, one of their most articulate writers. [And] she wrote in her book, entitled Happy Birthday Planet Earth: 'The choice is: do you wish to become a natural Christ, a universal human, or do you wish to die? People will either change or die. That is the choice.'

"So the people of the world will be given a choice: they will choose to accept the new world religion, or they will choose to die! The battle lines are drawn! Choices will have to be made. [William Cooper: I have made my choice. What is yours?]

"Some of the leading Socialists of the past have shown that they too have chosen up sides. One such individual was Adolf Hitler, the head of the German Government during World War II, who held no conviction that the murder of over fifty million [50,000,000] people during that war was wrong. He considered himself to be an agent of this unseen god in reducing the population of the people that he held to be undesirable. He wrote: 'I have the right to exterminate millions of individuals of inferior races, which multiply like vermin.'

"And he did what he considered acceptable inside his religion. Those who did not believe in his new religion had no choice, and they perished. (The evidence that Adolf Hitler was a New Ager will be presented later in [this series].)

"Another of the leading spokesman for the Socialist position was George Bernard Shaw, a well-known writer [of] his day. He wrote a book, entitled The Intelligent Woman’s Guide to Socialism, in which he stated: 'I also made it quite clear that socialism means equality of income or nothing, and under Socialism you would not be allowed to be poor. (Laughter) You would be forcibly fed, clothed, lodged, taught and employed whether you like it or not, whether you are useful or not. Even if it were discovered you had not the character and industry enough to be worth all this trouble, you might be executed in a kindly manner; but whilst you were permitted to live you would have to live well.'

Socialism is the greatest perversion, deception, and lie that has ever existed on the face of this earth and has brought nothing but misery, death, poverty, to people who have been subjected to its cruelties.

The Masonic writer, Albert Pike, placed the Masonic order into the discussion, when he wrote this in his book Morals and Dogma: 'It is not true to say that "one man, however little, must not be sacrificed to another, however great, to a majority, or to all men." That is not only a fallacy, but a most dangerous one. Often one man and many men must be sacrificed, [to] the ordinary sense of the term, to the interest of the many...the interest and even the life of one man must often be sacrificed to the interest and welfare of his country.'

"The religious view is that the 'sacrifice' of one life for the interest of the 'many' is murder, and those who believe in the God of the Bible are told not to commit this act. The commandment against this practice is contained in Exodus 20, verse 13 of the Old Testament, and in Matthew 5, verse 21 in the New, and is simply expressed in these simple words: 'Thou shalt not kill.' The principle is easy to understand: no person has the right to take the life of another. This understanding is nearly worldwide (there are, of course, cultures that have determined that human sacrifice, cannibalism and murder are acceptable forms of behavior, but these are rare in the history of man.) But, here we are being exposed to a whole new religious view, one growing daily in size and stature, that openly advocates the wholesale slaughter of entire races of people.

"Adam Weishaupt, the founder of the [Bavarian branch of the] Illuminati, has also endorsed this new conviction that murder was not improper by including it in the initiation ceremony into the Order. He has his initiator tell the initiate: 'Behold our secret...If in order to destroy all Christianity, all religion, we have pretended to have the sole true religion, remember that the end justifies the means, and that the wise ought to take all the means to do good, which the wicked take to do evil.'

"The initiate was told that he may use whatever means, murder included, to achieve the goals of the association that he was joining. And that the major goal of the Illuminati was the destruction of all religion, including Christianity. That meant that if Christians physically stood in the way, they would be removed by simply murdering them.

"Weishaupt even went so far as to say that anyone [anyone] not willing to take the life of another was unfit to join the Illuminati. He wrote the following in a letter to a fellow member in 1778: 'No man is fit for our Order who is not ready to go to every length...'

"Weishaupt wrote that again, this time using different words: 'This can be done in no other way but by secret associations, which will by degrees, and in silence, possess themselves of the government and of the States and make use of those means for this purpose, which the wicked use for attaining base ends.'

"[Now] Weishaupt[, folks,] was aware of the enormous power of government and he desired its power for his members. He committed his organization to its infiltration. Then, he committed it to unspeakable purposes: anything that would further the goal of the Illuminati.

"He even went on to grant permission to his members to distort the truth by lying if it would further their goals. He wrote [this]: 'There must not a single purpose ever come in sight...that may betray our aims against religion and the state. One must speak sometimes one way and sometimes another, but so as never to contradict ourselves, and so that, with respect to our true way of thinking, we may be impenetrable.'"

[William Cooper]: And you wonder why politicians continually lie? Continually break their promises? And no matter who you elect, Republican or Democrat, it doesn’t make any difference?

"Perhaps a perfect example of an oath that these initiates take somewhere along the road to the pinnacle inside the secret society was given in a book written by George Orwell entitled 1984. Mr. Orwell has an initiate into a secret society called The Brotherhood in his story asked these questions: 'Are you prepared to give your life? Are you prepared to commit murder? Are you prepared to commit acts of sabotage which may cause the death of hundreds of innocent people? Are you prepared to betray your country to foreign powers? Are you prepared to cheat, to forge, to blackmail, to corrupt the minds of children? To distribute habit-forming drugs? To encourage prostitution? To disseminate venereal diseases? To do anything which is likely to cause demoralization and weaken the power of the people? Are you prepared to commit suicide if and when we order you to do so?'

"This[, folks,] is an example of the philosophy that 'the ends justify the means.' The initiate should do as he was required, as long as the act benefited the Brotherhood. There is no morality under such an oath.

"So murder of the unfit, those unwilling to adopt the new religion, will be acceptable. And those who do the annihilating are to feel no remorse. In the view of the New Age religion, the murderers have served mankind well.

"But this callous disregard for the right to life of every human on the face of the earth has been predicted before. In the New Testament, John was moved to write in John, chapter 16, verse 2: 'Yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think he doeth God’s service.'"

[William Cooper]: The New World Order, ladies and gentlemen, will sail in on a sea of blood. We have to take a short break, folks. Don't go away. I'll be right back after this short pause.


(break music: God Bless the Child, sung by Lisa Simpson, written by Billie Holiday and Arthur Herzog Jr.)


[William Cooper advertises upcoming appearance in San Diego once again]


[William Cooper]: Well, let's continue here.


"
The New Age religion[, folks,] is going to have a worldwide leader. A charismatic political and religious leader that they call, Lord Maitreya. [William Cooper: At least, so far that’s who they call him, or that’s what they call him.] This individual [as far as I know] has not made his public appearance yet, but the New Agers claim that he is on the earth, at the present time. They claim that he came to live with the Asian community in East London, England in July 1977, by 'descending' from his ancient retreat in the Himalaya Mountains along the border of India and Tibet. They further believe that 'his imminent reemergence into full public view is assured.'

"They also claim that this individual is the one that the Christians call Christ, the Jews call the Messiah, The Buddhists call the Fifth Buddha, The Hindus call the Krishna, and the Muslims call the Imam Mahdi. In other words, all of the major religions of the world are awaiting the arrival of this one individual. It is their claim that this one individual now [living] in London is the one expected by all of these religions."

[William Cooper]: However, when we search London with a fine toothed comb, we can find no trace of any living individual named Maitreya, or fitting this description, or recognized as this religious leader. Isn’t that strange?

"And [they say] he is on the earth now, patiently waiting for the appointed time to reveal his existence to the peoples of the world. They say that he will apparently assume the leadership of all these religions, and when does he will create a one-world religion.

"The New Agers have written that in the esoteric tradition (previously defined as being intended for or understood by only a chosen few as an inner group of disciples or initiates) [William Cooper: In other words, the esoteric means 'hidden.' They claim that] the word 'Christ' is not the name of an individual, but the name of an office, or function, within the Spiritual Hierarchy of Masters. [They claim] the masters are a group of perfected men who have guided human evolution from behind the scenes for centuries. And they believe that this Lord Maitreya is that Christ.

"[Now,] Manly P. Hall has written of this individual, by identifying him as 'the way, the truth and the life, which coming to every life, redeems all who accept it.' Texe Marrs has quoted this individual as saying: 'My Army is ready for battle, My Masters of Wisdom and Myself at the head. That battle will be fought for the continuance of man on this earth. Rest assured that my Army shall triumph.'

"[Well,] it appears that the battle to be fought between the followers of Lord Maitreya and the rest of humanity is still in the future. But at least one of the participants has an army already prepared. [William Cooper: How about you?]

"One who claims to have seen the birth in a 'vision' of someone who seems to fulfill the requirements of this Maitreya was astrologer Jeane Dixon. Her major claim to being a 'prophet' is her prediction, reportedly made before the event, of the assassination of John Kennedy in 1963. However, her credentials were dealt a serious blow in 1968 when she also 'prophesied' that the Soviet Union would be the first to put a man on the moon. (Laughter) Another of her 'prophecies' was that the Republican party would be victorious in 1968 (and it was with the election of Richard Nixon, a Republican,) but she also predicted that 'within the following decade (1970-1979) the two-party system as we known it will vanish from the American scene.

"She further predicted that Richard M. Nixon had 'excellent vibrations for the good of America' and would 'serve [the] country well.'"

[William Cooper: (Laughter) [Sarcasm] So, you can see she is a very accurate person, from which to judge the course of the future. [End sarcasm] You want to know the truth folks, I am the most accurate prophet of future events in history...in history.

"Those that question her inability to correctly predict that America, not the Soviet Union, would become the first to place a man on the moon; and that the two-party system has not vanished from the scene; and that president Nixon apparently did not have 'good vibrations' for this nation and would later be removed from office by the event commonly referred to as 'Watergate,' can only presume that she must have been given 'inside' information about the assassination of President Kennedy. And that would account for her knowing, at least in that event, the true future.

"Secondly, one can only wonder why this 'non-prophet' should be listened to about anything after her appalling record on 'prophecies,' but there is reason to believe that she might have been asked to write an account of this 'vision' of the important birth by the New Age religion because they wanted the official imprimatur of someone commonly referred to as a 'prophet.' In other words[, folks,] her 'prophecy' might have been written to legitimize his claim to be a man-god so that when this individual made his public appearance himself, the public would marvel at the fact that his birth had fulfilled a 'prophecy.' (Laughter)

"But in any event, Ruth Montgomery wrote a book about her, entitled The Gift of Prophecy, in which she wrote about the very revealing and intriguing vision that Jeane Dixon allegedly had: 'The vision which [Jeane] considers the most significant and soul-stirring of her life occurred on February the 5th, 1962. She saw the brightest sun she had ever seen. [William Cooper: Isn’t it funny how that sun always pops into this stuff? Now, remember that reference to the sun, folks.]

"'Stepping out into the brightness were a pharaoh and Queen Nefetiti. [Remember here that these two individuals were Egyptians. [Now,] this will become significant later on. [William Cooper: In fact, its already significant if you’ve been listening to this show.] The couple...thrust forth a baby as if offering it to the entire world.'"

[William Cooper: Now another interpretation, because they sprang from the sun, could be Osiris and Isis and the child is Horus, and that is exactly is the esoteric real interpretation, although Jeanie Dixon never said this.

"Jeane looked at the baby and said, according to author: 'I knew here is the beginning of wisdom.'"

[William Cooper]: Remember what I told you? Osiris is the doctrine, Isis is the church, the child Horus is the body of illumined Initiates.

"So what Ruth Montgomery wrote can be summarized as follows: A sun deity gives the world a child from Egypt, who possess enormous 'wisdom'. And this event allegedly took place on February the 5th, 1962. The interpretation of these symbols [have already been discussed and will continue to be] discussed [during this series, and the significance will be plain to all.]

"[Jeane then says,] 'A child, born somewhere in the Middle East shortly after 7 a.m. (E.S.T.) on February [the 5th], 1962, will revolutionize the world. Before the close of the century, he will bring together all mankind in one all-embracing faith.

"'Mankind will begin to feel the great force of this man in the early 1980s, and during the subsequent ten years the world as we know it will be reshaped into one without wars and suffering. His power will grow greatly and until 1999, [[and then this] year is extremely significant as will also be [discussed]] at which time the peoples of this earth probably discover the full meaning of the vision.'

"So according to this 'vision', [this] child, born on February [the 5th], 1962, will grow up to bring a one-world religion onto the face of the earth and his efforts will be successful in 1999.

"The New York Times newspaper[, folks,] ran three consecutive articles on the conjunction of five planets, the sun the moon and an 'invisible body that astrologers call Khetu,' starting on February [the 4th], 1962. The first article stated that the various bodies moved into 'rough alignment in the constellation Capricorn at 7:05 a.m., New York time...'"

[William Cooper]: Now Capricorn, remember, is the goat. In history, the goat was the goat of Mendes, or the Ram.

"[And the newspaper article also says] that they would 'remain in that alignment until 7:17 a.m., New York time, Monday.'"

[William Cooper]: The goat of Mendes, the Ram, is also another word, or another name, for Lucifer, Satan.

"However, the article went on to say that most of the people in India became alarmed, because most astrologers were making 'predictions of disasters.' There were a few astrologers who were predicting good for the world as a result of this alignment, but 'few Indians appear[ed] to be paying them much heed.'

[William Cooper]: Now couple that with Jean Dixon’s prediction that the child was born on February the 5th, 1962, midpoint in this alignment, and what do you get? (laughter) They are going to great pains to prepare the world for something.

"Astronomers did not consider the event to be rare, however, and the article went on to report that 'the same configuration [had] occurred several times in the past,' the last time being in April, 1821, and then it occurred twice. The article reported that Dr. Kenneth L. Franklin of the Museum of Natural History-Hayden Planetarium in New York, had commented that that year does not seem to be a year of any remembered disasters. He was then quoted as saying: 'And that year isn’t famous for anything as far as I know.' (Laughter)

"Dr. Franklin also commented on the body the astrologers call Khetu. He 'speculated that it may be some sort of astrological addition used to make everything come out right.' He then added that he believed Khetu 'to be the invisible planet that is frequently taken into account in astrological reckonings, but that he had no idea how it was possible to keep track of something that no one could see [William Cooper: and, as far as he knew, didn’t even exist].'

"The Times carried another article the next day, Monday, February [the 5th], 1962, [William Cooper: the date that the supposed child was born] and it repeated the concern of the Hindu astrologers. In fact, that headline read 'Hindu Astrologers Still Say It’s Doomsday.' And the sub-headline read, 'Peaceful Beginning of Planetary Event Is Viewed Gravely.'

"[Now] the third article [in] the series ran on the Tuesday, February [the 6th], 1962, and carried the headline '"Doomsday" in India Uneventful.' (Laughter) The article reported that the Indian astrologers had 'predicted a variety of disasters, earthquakes, tidal waves, devastating fires, and warfare, to name but a few,' but that none of these events has occurred. Furthermore, the article reported that Hindu priests had claimed that the reason that nothing had happened was because their prayers to their god had been answered.

"But [folks,] none of these three articles mentioned the birth of anyone on these three days. Furthermore, none but a few astrologers had believed that something good was going to happen, and that only a few in India had even listened to them. Only Jeane Dixon, another 'astrologer,' had seen [a vision of] something beneficial, in this case a birth of a baby 'full of wisdom,' at about the midpoint of the three day affair.

"One can only wonder if, once again, she missed the mark and was involved in another error [William Cooper: or if she was intentionally made to set up the world to welcome someone named Lord Maitreya].

"In any event, these people claim that the Lord Maitreya will appear shortly to the entire world and start everyone off on a road to a one world religion. Helena Petrovna Blavatsky in her book, entitled The Secret Doctrine called him 'the dragon of wisdom.'"

[William Cooper]: So, it appears that the one call that Jeane Dixon made that appears to match other comments is her statement that the baby she saw in her vision was ‘full of wisdom’. If the baby she claimed to have seen in her vision was Lord Maitreya, then she was right because others have claimed that Lord Maitreya is fill of wisdom.

"However, there is still reason to believe that she was given 'inside' information by some New Agers that wanted to have this 'Lord's [Maitreya] birth 'prophesied' so that when he did surface, the New Agers could claim that his birth had been 'a fulfilled prophecy.'

[William Cooper]: So the world awaits the visible appearance of Lord Maitreya.

Ladies and Gentlemen, dear listeners, so that you would realize that I'm not making any of this up, I took last night’s program and tonight’s program, verbatim, from the introduction all the way through Chapter 3, from a book entitled The New World Order, by my good friend A. Ralph Epperson. Again, the title of the book is The New World Order, by A. Ralph Epperson. And you can order that book in any good bookstore. If you can’t find it in your area, contact us and we will make arrangements with Mr. Epperson to be able to furnish that book to you if you would like to purchase it. I also recommend you purchase my book, Behold a Pale Horse. It's a handbook for what is going to happen in the upcoming years. Especially in this country. And without it, you will be crippled.

[Instructions to order the book from the radio show; asks for money to pay for air time]

Folks, we are nearing the end of the road of civilization as we know it, unless we wake up. Unless we take control and make sure the future is what we want it to be, and one of the things we must do now, immediately, is to stop fighting amongst each other. Stop fighting the man who doesn't look like you, or the woman who doesn’t look like you. The people who have a different skin color than you do. We must learn to live together and its nobody else’s business what somebody else’s religion is. It doesn’t hurt us if they want to practice their religion as long as they are not hurting us in the process. So why go to war with them? We are all brothers and sisters in this world, no matter who we are. Let’s learn to live together and love each other.

Good night, and God bless each and every one of you!

William Cooper's Mystery Babylon: Part 05 – The NWO and Freemasonry

transcribed by John Galt (edited/formatted by wakingup72 @ http://www.waronyou.com/forums)

Good evening, and welcome to the Hour of The Time. I’m your host, William Cooper.



(Opening song: Look At All Those Idiots by Mr. Burns and Mr. Smithers from the TV Show The Simpsons)



Ah, yes. A nation or world of people who will not use their intelligence are no better than animals who do not have intelligence. Such people are steaks on the table and beasts of burden by choice and consent. Do you fit that description? I certainly hope not. If you do, then it’s time to wake up and change it. And if you really want to know in a nutshell what’s wrong with this country, go in your bathroom and look in the mirror.

[William Cooper does commercial for upcoming appearance (text below)]:


Everybody write this down. Write it down. Monday, March 15th -- that's a Monday -- March 15th, 8pm to 11, the Lafayette Hotel, 2223 El Cajon Boulevard, San Diego. That’s Monday, March 15th, 8pm to 11, the Lafayette Hotel, 2223 El Cajon Boulevard in San Diego. I’m going to be giving a lecture that night, entitled "The Sacrificed King," and I will prove to you, beyond any shadow of any doubt, that John F. Kennedy was assassinated by the religion known as "Mystery Babylon." Specifically, by the arm of Mystery Babylon that calls itself the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. I will prove it to you folks.

I want to see you. I want to meet you. I want to shake your hand. I want to see who my radio audience is. If you’re a CAJI (Citizens Agency for Joint Intelligence) member, I specifically, really, really look forward to meeting CAJI members. You are my heroes. You are the ones who do the dirty work, who are constantly digging out and sending in information. So if you’re a CAJI member, I want to meet you, I want to see you, I want to shake your hand. If you’re just a listener to this show, I still want to meet you. I want to shake your hand. I want to see you. And you’re going to want to hear and see what I have to say and show you on Monday, March 15th at 8pm at the Lafayette Hotel, 2223 El Cajon Boulevard in San Diego, California. The price of admission is $40. If you’re a CAJI member, it’s $30. CAJI members get a 25% discount to this lecture. Sometimes CAJI members get a bigger discount, but this was all I was able to negotiate with the promoters of this event in San Diego. By the way, I will be there all weekend. I will be there the 13th, 14th and 15th. Actually, I will be there the 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th.

I’ll have a room at the hotel. If you want to come earlier, I’d like to meet you. I’d like to sit down and talk to you. I plan on having some conferences with some good people, some patriots, in my room. And you’ll get to meet my wife and my little daughter Pooh. They’re both looking forward to meeting you also. So, please, put it on your calendar. Start saving your money. Make sure that you are there. It is important. Now at the same time in this hotel the "National New Age and Truth About UFOs" conference is going on, so if you are interested and into this nutty, loony tunes stuff, you might want to come down and go to some of that too. Now some of these speakers have something to say. Most of them, however, are as nutty as a fruitcake, and so is what they say. I know. I’ve been to many of these. I’ve talked to these people so many times it’s pathetic. I’ve sat in and listened to them, and you talk about lies and deception and just plain old bullshit (laughs), you hear a lot of it at these conferences. But don’t get me wrong folks, because sometimes it’s a lot of fun. I mean, sometimes loony tunes is just fun. Escape from the real world a little while and listen to some of these people. Most of the lectures are free. If you want to go to the workshops, that’ll cost you. But most of the lectures are free. I mean, you sit there all day and listen to these people, and some of them have something to say. Most of them...most of them belong in the loony bin, I’m telling you right now. My workshop is eight o’clock, Monday night.


[reading from The New World Order, by A. Ralph Epperson]:


"Something’s wrong [folks] in America!"

[William Cooper]: Something’s really wrong. Something is destroying everything that we’ve ever held dear in this country. What is it? Well, if you’ve been listening to this show, many of you already know what it is. If you’ve just been listening to this show for a little while, you may have some idea, but you’re not quite really sure yet what’s going on. Well, I’m going to tell you right now it’s all about religion. Whether you’re religious or not, doesn’t make any difference. It’s all about religion. Whether you believe in God or not, it doesn’t make any difference. It’s all about a big battle between good and evil. And most of it, I got to tell you, exists in the minds of men. Some of it’s real. The question is, what’s real, what’s deception, what should we be paying any attention to? What is it that’s driving us insane? Yes, something is wrong in America.


[plays audio of trailer for the 1960 movie, La machera del demonio, a.k.a Black Sunday]


"Today’s newspapers[, folks,] are full of stories about the rampant rise [of] divorce rates; the increasing abuse of children by some parents; increases in the incidence of rape; pornography being read by an increasing number of people; more crimes against property; demands for world government; urgings for national borders to fall; Christian churches being closed because they will not seek licensing by the state, etc.[, etc., etc.]"

[William Cooper]: And I could go on and on and on and on and on.

"But [why,] why are these things happening? Why are all of the legacies of the past, the family, national borders, the right to practice any chosen religion, the right to private property, amongst other things, under such an attack? Is it possible that there are actually people and organizations who really want to change the basic order of things?"

[William Cooper]: Well, my regular listeners know the answer to that.

"Clues to the answers to these questions[, folks,] can be gleaned from some comments made by people and organizations that are talking about these wide-ranging changes in the nature of our lifestyle.

"An Associated Press dispatch on July the 26th, 1968 reported [this]: 'New York Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller says as President he would work toward international creation of "a new world order"...'"

[William Cooper]: And you thought George Bush coined that phrase? Surprise, surprise.

"On January the 30th, 1976, a new document called The Declaration of Interdependence was introduced to the American people. [And] it was signed by [124 traitors:] 32 Senators and 92 Representatives [altogether 124 traitors] in Washington D.C. and [it] read in part: 'Two centuries ago our forefathers brought forth a new nation. Now we must join with others to bring forth a new world order.'"

[William Cooper]: And you thought George Bush coined that phrase? Surprise, surprise.

"Another individual who has commented is Henry Kissinger, [William Cooper: probably the greatest traitor this nation has ever known,] former Secretary of State. According to the Seattle Post Intelligence of April 18th, 1975, Mr. Kissinger said: 'Our nation is uniquely endowed to play a creative and decisive role in the new order which is taking form around us.'

"...George Bush gave the commencement address at Texas A&M University on May 12th, 1989, and he used similar words as well. His speech was on the subject of Soviet-American relations, and he was quoted as saying, in part: 'Ultimately our objective is to welcome the Soviet Union back into the world order. Perhaps the world order of the future will truly be a family of nations.'

"Historian Walter Mills maintained that prior to World War I, Colonel Edward Mandell House, the major advisor to Woodrow Wilson, the President at the time, had a hidden motive for involving America in the war. The historian wrote [this]: 'The Colonel’s sole justification for preparing such a batch of blood for his countrymen was his hope of establishing a New World Order of peace and security.'"

[William Cooper]: You see how these people fool themselves? (laughs) They always say that the end is peace and security, a world Utopia. But to get it, they spill more blood than ever has been spilled in history. Each time they try to bring about their utopia, the blood runs in the streets. They’re liars. They’re hypocrites. They’re manipulators, deceivers. They are the worshipers of Lucifer.

"Adolf Hitler, a Socialist, and the head of the German government prior to and during the nation’s involvement in World War II, is quoted as saying [this]: 'National socialism will use its own revolution for the establishing of a new world order.' [William Cooper: Adolf Hitler was a Socialist. "Nazi" means National Socialism.] Hitler confided to Hermann Rauschning, the President of the Danzig Senate, 'National Socialism is more than a religion; it is the will to create superman.'"

[William Cooper]: And what is the number of the man? 666. You see, in the New World Order, only one man will be allowed to live -- the new man, the illumined man, and the number of that man is 666. You will see that number increasingly all around you. You will also begin to see pyramids increasingly all around you, and the eye in the pyramid, and the eye alone. And you will see circles with the dot in the center. And you will see obelisks appearing all over the place. And these are not the only signs. There are many, many, many more. They are the signs of the religion Mystery Babylon.

"Hitler added this thought: 'Well, yes! We are barbarians, and barbarians we wish to remain. It does us honor. It is we who will rejuvenate the world. The present world is near its end. Our only task is to sack it.'

"Another book on his background quoted his comments that his Nazi...party had a hidden purpose, one that was not perceived by the world at large. Mr. Hitler was quoted as saying [this]: 'He who has seen in National Socialism only a political movement has seen nothing.' [William Cooper: For it is a religion.]

"The Humanist religion issued a manifesto in 1933 stating its beliefs about the world in general. It took the following position about the need for the wealthy governments to share their wealth with the less fortunate nations: 'It is the moral obligation of the developed nations to provide -- through an international authority -- ...economic assistance...to the developing portions of the globe.'"

[William Cooper]: Now that is a lie, folks. It means that it's OK for some of us to lay back and do nothing and reap the rewards of the labor of others. That’s socialism! That’s what it’s all about. Communism, socialism...it’s the same. And these people, the worshipers of Mystery Babylon, are the original Communists. They are international socialism. They invented it. It is their creation. It is their dream of a world Utopia -- a one-world, totalitarian socialist government.


"The April, 1974 issue of Foreign Affairs, the quarterly periodical issued by the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, had an article in it by Richard N. Gardner, the former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for International Organizations in the Lyndon Johnson and John Kennedy administrations. [And] he stated [this]: 'We are likely to do better by building our "house of world order" from bottom up rather than from the top down...an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, is likely to get us to world order faster than the old-fashioned assault.'


"Even the Communist Party is voicing similar thoughts. The People’s Daily World for Thursday, March 9th, 1989, contained an article written by Angela Davis. [William Cooper: You remember her?] Those familiar with Ms. Davis will remember that she was the Vice Presidential candidate for the Communist Party a few years ago. She currently is a member of the National Committee of the Communist Party of the United States [and she] is quoted in the paper as saying: 'One underlying effect of anti-communism in this respect is to encourage a certain hesitancy to embrace solutions which call for deep, structural, socio-economic transformation.'

"Another Communist, Alexei Kovylov, spoke at an evening meeting held at Windstar, Colorado in August 1985, and gave the participants in attendance a surprise presentation. He spoke about the 12th World Festival of Youth and Students held in Moscow a few months prior to his lecture. He said: 'There were three programs. The first was political and dealt with the various issues of peace and disarmament. The second was dedicated to environmental [issues] and to the new international economic order.'

"The alleged need for a change in the basic way things are done is consistent with the teachings of the 'Father of Communism,' Karl Marx."

[William Cooper]: He’s not really the father of Communism, but it’s a name that’s been tagged onto him. You see, he was just a hack writer hired by the Mystery Religion of Babylon to write the Communist Manifesto. It was not his idea, but he’s reaped the benefits of it, if you can call them benefits.

"[But] he co-authored the Communist Manifesto with Frederick Engels, another hack writer, in 1848. Mr. Marx wrote that the Communists: 'openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.'

"Nesta Webster, a writer on the subject of conspiratorial organizations in the past, wrote this in her book, entitled Secret Societies: 'The revolution desired by the leaders [of world revolution] is a moral and spiritual revolution, an anarchy of ideas by which all standards set up throughout nineteen centuries shall be reversed, all honored traditions trampled under foot, and above all [above all] the Christian ideal finally obliterated.'

"Some of the Catholic Popes in the past have commented on the major changes coming in the future. One such Pope was Pope Pius XI, who wrote the following in 1937: 'Communism has behind it occult forces for which a long time have been working for the overthrow of the Christian Social Order.'

"One of the Popes who preceded him, Pope Pius XI, oh excuse me, Pope Pius IX, wrote this in November, 1846 about the changes that he saw in the future: 'That infamous doctrine of so-called communism...is absolutely contrary to the natural law itself, and if once adopted, would utterly destroy the rights, property and possessions of all men, and even society itself.'"

[William Cooper]: Now, don’t get all worked up about what the Pope says, because they have succeeded now, with this Pope, in putting one of their own upon the throne of the Vatican. It had long been their dream, and now it is true. And the bans have been lifted against Catholics joining secret societies. And many of the hierarchy of the Vatican belong to the secret societies: the Freemasons, Propaganda Due ['P2'], etc., etc., etc. You will find an obelisk (chuckles) -- the symbol of the phallus, the penis of Osiris -- in the Vatican courtyard. You don’t believe me? Go look.

"Another individual who wrote about the future was Dr. José Argüelles of an organization known as the Planet Art Network. Dr. Argüelles wrote, 'Also implicit in all these events is a call for another way of life, another way of doing things...a redistribution of global wealth...in short, a New World Order.'

"[Now,] just what the future society was that these people are talking about was described, in a brief manner, by Marilyn Ferguson in her book, entitled The Aquarian Conspiracy. [And] she wrote [this]: 'The new world is the old ~ transformed.'

"Another clue about what is in store for the future world was offered by Dr. James H. Billington, who received his doctorate as a Rhodes..."

[William Cooper]: Rhodes, Rhodes, Rhodes, Rhodes Scholar. Where have you heard that before? You have a Rhodes Scholar sitting in the Oval Office right now!

"[He] received his doctorate as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, and has taught at Harvard and Princeton Universities. He wrote this in his book, entitled Fire in The Minds of Men: 'This book seeks to trace the origins of a faith - perhaps the faith of our time. What is new is the belief that a perfect secular...order will emerge from the forcible overthrow of traditional authority.'"

[William Cooper]: You hear that? They believe a perfect, secular order will emerge. Nothing perfect will ever emerge from the minds of imperfect men, and no men will ever be ruled by other imperfect men in any kind of a perfect Utopian order, secular or otherwise. That is why we must be eternally vigilant...eternally vigilant.

"That these future changes would involve force and slavery was confirmed by B.F. Skinner, chairman of the Psychology Department at Harvard University, in his book, entitled Beyond Freedom and Dignity. Dr. Skinner has been called '...the most influential of living American psychologists' by Time magazine. So the world should listen to the professor when he speaks. The magazine told the reader what the message of Professor Skinner’s book was: 'We can no longer afford freedom, and so it must be replaced with control over man, his conduct, and his culture.'

[William Cooper]: Not long ago in the Los Angeles Times there was an article called "Ten Forecasts for the Coming Decade," and one of these was chemical, or electronic, implants to control individual behavior on a twenty-four hour basis.

"Another student of these changes is Alvin Toffler, who wrote this in his book, entitled The Third Wave [William Cooper: and you should read everything he’s written, by the way, because what he’s writing is what is coming]: 'A new civilization is emerging in our lives...This new civilization brings with it new family styles, changed ways of working, loving and living; a new economy; new political conflicts; and beyond all this an altered consciousness as well. The dawn of this new civilization is the single most explosive fact of our lifetimes.'

"Another scientist involved in commenting upon the future changes was Dr. Carl Sagan [and he’s] observed [this]: 'It’s clear that sometime relatively soon in terms of the lifetime of the human species people will identify with the entire planet and the species...'

"[Now] the reason[, folks,] why these changes are necessary was explained by Manly P. Hall, perhaps the world’s leading authority on esoteric words and language. [William Cooper: He was a 33rd degree Freemason.] He wrote in his book, entitled Lectures on Ancient Philosophy: 'The time has not yet arrived when the average man is strong enough or wise enough to rule himself.'

"And he explained who he considered worthy enough to rule those on the world considered by the experts to be incapable of governing themselves. He wrote this: 'Never will peace reign upon the earth until we are ruled by the fit.'"

[William Cooper]: And who is the fit? (laughs) Why, them of course -- the illumined, the priests of the Mystery Religion of Babylon.

"Mr. Hall even indicated that these changes would occur soon. He wrote this comment in his book previously cited: 'One hundred years ago [meaning in 1884 [folks]] it was predicted that within a few centuries men would revert to the gods of Plato and Aristotle...We may all look forward with eager anticipation to that nobler day when the gods of philosophy once more shall rule the world...'

"Aldous Huxley in his book, called Brave New World Revisited, quotes a character called the Grand Inquisitor in one of Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevski’s parables as saying [this]: 'In the end they [the people] will lay their freedom at our [the controllers'] feet and say to us, "Make us your slaves, but feed us."'

"The Tucson Citizen newspaper of November the 3rd, 1988 printed a photograph of a group of people involved in a 'march for literacy,' and it clearly demonstrated that at least some people in America are now asking their government to make them their slaves. The picture showed a demonstrator carrying a picket sign that read: 'Uncle Sam, we want you to support us.'

"Mr. Huxley gave us a date when we could expect these changes to occur. He wrote the following in his book, written in 1958: '...The twenty-first century...will be the era of World Controllers.'

"And then he told us why these controllers would not fail: 'The older dictators fell because they could never supply their subjects with enough bread, enough circuses, enough miracles and mysteries. Under a scientific dictatorship education will really work ~ with the result that most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution. There seems to be no good reason why a thoroughly scientific dictatorship should ever be overthrown.'

"Someone who might have given the world the date for the commencement of these predicted changes was Zbigniew Brzezinski, [a Marxist and] President Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor during his four year administration. [And] he wrote the following in his book, entitled Between Two Ages [William Cooper: by the way, you should read every book that he’s every written...you will be angered]: 'Either 1976 or 1989 -- the two hundredth anniversary of the Constitution -- could serve as a suitable target date for culminating a national dialogue on the relevance of existing arrangements, the workings of the representative process, and the desirability of imitating the various European regionalization reforms and of streamlining the administrative structure.' [William Cooper: And it did begin exactly when he said it would.]

"So, the people of the world can now determine what those changes are that those in the positions of implementing changes have in store for them. In summary, [folks,] these changes are:

"The old world is coming to an end. It will be replaced with a new way of doing things. The new world will be called the 'New World Order.' This new structuring will re-distribute property from the 'have' nations and will give it to the 'have not' nations. The New World Order will include changes in the family...the workplace...religion.

"The United States will play a major role in bringing it to the world. World wars have been fought to further its aims.

"Adolf Hitler, the Nazi Socialist, supported the goal of the planners. The majority of the people will not readily accept 'the new world order' but will be deceived into accepting it by two strategies:

"1. Those in favor of the changes will have become seated in the very thrones of power, generally without the public realizing that fact [William Cooper: and this has already occurred].

"2. The 'old world order' will be destroyed piece by piece by a series of planned 'nibbles' at the established format.

"The Communist Party is actively supporting the changes to the 'new world order.' The basic tenets of Christianity, which were the base for the 'old world order,' will have to be eliminated.

"If the slower, methodical techniques of change do not function, violence will be introduced and controlled by the planners [William Cooper: including, possibly, a World War III using atomic weapons]. The people of the world will give up their freedom to the 'controllers' because there will be a planned famine, or some other serious occurrence such as a depression or war.

"The change to the 'New World Order' is coming shortly[, folks, and it has already begun]. However, if that is not the [case], it will be introduced, one step at a time, so that the entire structure will be in place by the year 1999."

[William Cooper]: We’ve got to take a short break. Don’t go away, folks. I’ll be right back after this very short pause.

[continuing reading from The New World Order, by A. Ralph Epperson]:


"[Yes folks,] something is indeed wrong in America! And many sense that changes in this nation’s lifestyle are occurring."

[William Cooper]: Most of us know full well that these changes are taking place.

"The newspapers are saturated with articles reporting the activities of those advocating increased governmental spending for a variety of unconstitutional purposes; organizations supporting a globalism concept urge the world to adopt a one-world government; psychologists preaching the destruction of the family unit and recommending that the society rear the nation’s children; governments closing private schools; and nations forming regional governments under which national borders are scheduled to disappear."

[William Cooper]: And, still, the sheeple think that all of this is happening by accident, and any concept that it is being brought about by a carefully orchestrated plan is the product of crazy conspiratorialists (mmm-hmm).

"Since these changes appear to be part of the new philosophy known as 'the new world order,' anyone desiring to know the future has to become familiar with this new phrase and what it portends for the world of tomorrow."

[William Cooper]: And you will quickly see that is the result of a well-thought out, well-conceived, and well-orchestrated plan. Indeed, it is called the "Great Work."

"As an indication that major changes are coming in tomorrow’s world, one of the current trends mentioned is the call for a 'one-world government'. [And] one of those supporting this leap forward is Norman Cousins, President of the World Federalist Society. And he is on record as saying [this]: 'World government is coming. In fact, it is inevitable. No arguments for it or against it can change that fact.'"

[William Cooper]: And I say, that is a lie. Two hundred and forty million Americans standing up in concert with each other, holding a rifle in their hands, can stop it instantly in its tracks. And that’s the truth of why we were given the 2nd article and amendment to the Constitution. It has nothing to do with hunting or preserving your private property. It has to do with preserving our freedom.

"The goal of a one-world government[, folks,] is not a new thought. One of the earliest formal organizations that supported the concept of that goal was the Illuminati, founded on May 1st, 1776, by Adam Weishaupt [William Cooper: a Jesuit priest, a professor at Ingolstadt University, a Jesuit university, a teacher of Canon Law]...Professor Weishaupt was quoted as saying [this]: 'It is necessary to establish a universal regime and empire over the whole world...'"

[William Cooper]: Now, let me tell you the truth about the Illuminati. Adam Weishaupt did not establish the Illuminati, nor did the Illuminati die with Adam Weishaupt. Make sure you understand that.

"A more modern organization that supports the coming changes is the Masonic Order called simply the Freemasons, or [for short] the Masons. [William Cooper: It has nothing to do with bricklayers, folks. The term originally comes from the French free maçons, which literally means, 'the sons of light.'] This worldwide fraternity has members in America, as will be discussed, and they, too, support a call for a one-world government. One who has written about this secret organization is Paul Fisher, and he says this about them in his book, entitled Behind the Lodge Door: 'Masonry will eventually rule the world.' (laughs) [William Cooper: Benevolent fraternal organization?
]

"Albert Pike [William Cooper: and you’re going to hear an awful lot about Albert Pike during this series] the Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry here in the United States from 1850 to 1891 [William Cooper: the man who founded the Ku Klux Klan and B’nai B’rith] wrote a book, entitled Morals and Dogma. [William Cooper: And when and if you can find that book, don’t pass it up -- buy it and read it.] Mr. Pike has been praised by his fellow Masons as a member almost without parallel in the history of the Masonic Order. [William Cooper: He was a great friend of Giuseppe Mazzini, the ruler of the European branch of the Illuminati.] Carl Claudy, himself a Masonic writer of great esteem, wrote this about Pike: 'Albert Pike, one of the greatest geniuses Freemasonry has ever known. He was a mystic, a symbolist, a teacher of the hidden truths of Freemasonry.

"So the outsider can know that whenever Mr. Pike speaks he speaks with authority and knowledge. He is perhaps the greatest Masonic writer of all time [William Cooper: and I would add, next to Manly P. Hall].

"His book is given to each Scottish Rite Southern Jurisdiction Freemason, who is asked to read it. (There seems to be a difference of opinion as to whether or not this book is still required reading for each Scottish Rite Mason. [As we were] told that it was given to each Scottish Rite Mason in Tucson. Other Masons say that that is not true.)"

[William Cooper]: But you have to remember, they’re sworn not to reveal the secrets of the lodge, and therefore you can never trust them to tell you the truth, no matter what they’re telling you.

"[But in this book, Morals and Dogma, Pike] informs the new Mason about the moral teachings of the Masonic Lodge. He instructs the Masonic reader that the Order will eventually be asked to rule the entire globe. And he wrote [this]: 'The world will soon come to us for its Sovereigns...and Pontiffs...We shall constitute the equilibrium of the universe and be rulers over the masters of the world.'

"He wrote this supportive statement in a book, entitled Legenda: 'And thus the warfare against the powers of evil that crushed the Order of the Temple goes steadily on, and Freedom marches ever onward toward the conquest of the world.'

[William Cooper]: Reference to the Order of the Temple is reference to the Knights Templars, who were destroyed in concert by King Philip of France and Pope Clement V. And the "powers of evil," referred to in this paragraph, is the Christian Church -- the Christian religion, Christianity as a whole.

[William Cooper]: Let me read it to you again, just in case you weren’t paying attention. "And thus the warfare against the powers of evil that crushed the Order of the Temple goes steadily on, and freedom marches ever onward toward the conquest of the world."

"The Order of the Temple Mr. Pike was writing about was the Knights Templar which was, according to him: 'devoted to the cause of opposition to the tiara [the Pope’s triple crown] and the crowns of Kings.'

[William Cooper]: Well, then, is it any wonder that the King of France and the Pope crushed the Templars in France? For that is the only place that they were truly crushed.

"Mr. Pike said that the Catholic Church was a 'power of evil' because it had 'crushed' the Templars, even though he admitted that they were 'devoted' to opposition to the Church and its leader, the Pope.

"But the major point of that quote is that these forces of opposition, presumably meaning the Masons, are marching 'onward towards the conquest of the world.' Mr. Pike repeated his devotion to the conquest of the world with this comment at the end of his book, entitled Morals and Dogma: 'Such, my Brother, is the TRUE WORD of a Master Mason; such the true ROYAL SECRET, which makes possible, and shall at length make real, the HOLY EMPIRE of true Masonic Brotherhood.'

[William Cooper]: Now, all of you Master Masons out there who have been writing me letters, don’t write to me anymore. You are my enemies, and if I can, I will destroy you. Don’t write to me and profess your innocence, for your own have proclaimed your guilt. And if you are truly innocent, then you are just a foolish dupe, and you better get out while you can.

"...the major worldwide movement that champions a one world government[, folks,] under a religious leader, is a new phenomena occurring worldwide called, 'The New Age Movement.'"

[William Cooper]: a creation of Freemasonry. The newspaper put out by the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry is called The New Age.

"Texe Marrs, a researcher into this new religion, has written two books on the subject. Both of these books are excellent primers for those who wish to know more about the beliefs of this religion. The two books are entitled Dark Secrets of the New Age and Mystery Mark of the New Age. He has written: 'The New Age movement has undeniably taken on the definite form of a religion, [William Cooper: Of course, because it is Mystery Babylon! He goes on to say] complete with an agreed-upon body of doctrine, printed scripture, a pattern of worship and ritual, a functioning group of ministers and lay leaders.'

"Another writer who has written two books on the New Age religion is Constance Cumbey. Her two books are called The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow and A Planned Deception. She has written this: 'The New Age movement is a religion complete with its own Bibles, prayers and mantras, Vatican City/Jerusalem equivalents, priests and gurus, born-again experiences (they call it ‘rebirthing’), spiritual laws and commandments, psychics and prophets, and nearly every other indicia of a religion.'

"The new religion has a series of leaders. One is a woman named Alice Bailey, a prolific writer on the subject of the New Age. She was the founder of an organization called the Arcane School, one of the major Lucis Trust divisions. The Lucis Trust was a major publisher of books supporting the religion [William Cooper: and published a newsletter, or newspaper, called Lucifer]. In her book, entitled The Externalization of the Hierarchy, she told her readers who the organizations were that were going to bring the New Age religion to the world, and she identified them as being: 'the three main channels through which the preparation for the New Age is going on might be regarded as the Church, the Masonic Fraternity, and the educational field.'"

[William Cooper]: And, folks, that is exactly who is bringing it to realization.

"(The main thrust of this program is going to be to examine only one of the three organizations mentioned by Alice Bailey, that being the Masonic Fraternity. There are numerous works by other writers[, lecturers, researchers] exposing the involvement of the Church and the educational field in the New Age movement [and in the New World Order], so I’m not going to attempt to duplicate those efforts. However, only a few are aware of the involvement of the [Freemasons], and that is why I have chosen to concentrate on that organization[, Mystery Babylon].)

[William Cooper]: And the reason I’m concentrating on that organization is because it is their members who have infiltrated the Church and the educational field who control those other two organizations. So, really, there’s only one organization that needs to be dealt with, and that is Freemasonry.

"Another major writer on the New Age movement is Benjamin Creme, and he admitted in his book, entitled The Reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom that: 'The new religion will manifest, for instance, through organizations like Masonry. In Freemasonry is embedded the core of the secret of the occult Mysteries.'

"So Masonry conceals a great mystery inside its temples, one that is connected somehow to the New Age movement. The Masons admit in some of their writings that they too are anticipating a new age, a series of major changes. Henry Clausen, the past Sovereign Grand Commander (the equivalent of their President) of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, has been quoted as saying [this]: 'We look towards a transforming into a New Age using, however, the insight and wisdom of the ancient mystics.'

"The Masons claim that the things that they believe in are as old as the ancient civilizations. They also claim that these 'mystics,' the ancient philosophers, had the wisdom of all ages, and that somehow this knowledge has become lost through the centuries. Humanity today does not possess this knowledge, but it has become the task of the Masons and other 'truth' seekers [William Cooper: who turn out in every case of investigation to be liars, deceivers, and manipulators] to rediscover these principles for the benefit of all mankind. Those possessing this knowledge will correct the world’s current problems. Some of the Masons also claim to have identified the cause of these problems.

"One of the most prolific writers on the subject of this 'lost' truth [as I have mentioned earlier] is Manly P. Hall, a 33rd degree Mason.

"(For those unfamiliar with the Masonic degrees, all Masons in America start through what is called the Blue Lodge, consisting of only three degrees...)"

[William Cooper]: A Master Mason is of the third degree, and really knows nothing even though he thinks that he has been illumined. And I get letters from them all the time: "I’m a Master Mason and I never heard of any of the stuff that you’re talking about!" (laughs) Oh boy! I -- it amazes me, folks, it just absolutely amazes me that people are so stupid! Drives me wild.

"(...The initiate into the Blue Lodge goes through three separate and different initiation ceremonies, one for each degree. After completing these ceremonies, he may stay where he is or choose to affiliate himself with either the York Rite [William Cooper: which has thirteen degrees] or the Scottish Rite [which has thirty-two and then the meritorious 33rd]. The latter is divided into two separate jurisdictions, the Southern and the Northern. These are based primarily on state borders, and whether one joins one or the other depends on where the initiate lives. The two Scottish rites have an additional twenty-nine degrees, making for a total of thirty-two. There is one more degree, called the 33rd degree, which is honorary, and only a few are invited into that degree...)"

[William Cooper]: And to even be considered, they must perform some major work toward the completion of the great work, which is the plan to bring about the Utopia on earth -- the socialist dream.

"(...The York Rite has a total of nine degrees. However, since little has been revealed about this order, we will concentrate on only the Scottish Rite, and, in particular, the Southern Jurisdiction.)"

[William Cooper]: Well, I’ve since discovered that the York Rite has a total of thirteen degrees, folks, not just nine.

"Mr. Hall has written a book, entitled Lectures on Ancient Philosophy, in which he talks a great deal about the Masonic fraternity. This is his comment about the coming changes: 'A new day is dawning for Freemasonry. From the insufficiency of theology and the hopelessness of materialism, men are turning to seek the god of philosophy.'

"Notice that Mr. Hall has said that current 'theology', obviously current 'religion', has proven insufficient. Also, he feels that 'materialism,' meaning the right to private property, is also a failure. But more importantly, he points out that this new 'God' of the Freemasons is somehow different from the God of the Jews and Christians. As will be illustrated later, some of the Masons believe that the God of the Bible is a God of evil.

"Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, perhaps the founder of the current New Age movement, has also determined that the Masons are somehow supportive of her religious views. She wrote this in her book, entitled The Secret Doctrine: '...at the end of the eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth centuries many Freemasons travelled to Tibet where they were initiated into the esoteric [defined as intended for or understood by only a chosen few, as an inner group of disciples or initiates] by an esoteric order of the Masters of wisdom.'

"It should be expected that she would support the Masonic fraternity. In 1875, she founded an organization called the Theosophical Society, basically dedicated to teaching the world about her new secret religion. One of the earliest members of that organization was Albert Pike, later to become the Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry.

"Albert Pike, who later became a 33rd degree Mason, the highest degree attainable, also saw that there were some significant changes coming, and that he was supportive of those changes. He wrote the following in his book, entitled Morals and Dogma: 'We can look on all the evils of the world and see that it is only the hour before sunrise, and that the light is coming.'

"[Now,] if Mr. Hall is right, the 'evils' that his fellow Mason Albert Pike saw are connected to current religion, and that which is coming is somehow different from these religious views. Mr. Hall, who as mentioned previously is another 33rd degree Mason, also wrote that a new day was coming, and that it was not too far into the future: 'A new light is breaking in the east [the significance of the location, 'the east', [I have already] pointed out [William Cooper: -- it is the point where the sun rises]] a more glorious day is at hand. The rule of the philosophic elect ~ the dream of the ages -- will yet be realized and is not too far distant.'

"So, Mr. Hall is also expecting that these changes are about to occur in the not too distant future.


"Someone who attempted to zero in on when these changes were expected to occur was Alice Bailey, previously mentioned. She wrote about when she thought the New Age would arrive: 'Eventually, there will appear the Church Universal, and its definite outlines will appear towards the close of the century.'

[William Cooper]: And you have already seen the emergence of the Universalist Church.

"Since she wrote early in the 20th century, we can see that she was predicting the eventual arrival of the New Age, sometime around the 1990s. This estimate of that date is not too far wrong, as will be demonstrated later [in this series of programs].

"Whatever is coming in the future, some New Agers have told us that they expect that it will last for a long time. One such writer is Ruth Montgomery, who wrote that she saw that the new religion would rule the earth for a thousand years. She wrote the following in her book, entitled Herald For The New Age: 'The New Age, the millennium [a millennium is a period of one thousand years], will see an end to that strife, at least for a thousand years.'

"[Now,] just what is the New Age religion that will last for at least one thousand years on the earth? [William Cooper: What is it?]

"One who attempted to answer that question was Constance Cumbey in her book, entitled The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow. She wrote that these were the basic tenets of the new religion [William Cooper: Listen closely]:

"1. 'The Plan' for the future includes the installation of a New World 'Messiah', the implementation of a new world government and new world religion under Maitreya (an individual who will be examined later in this [series of programs]).

"2. A universal credit card system will be implemented [as a cashless society].

"3. A world food authority will control all of the world’s food supply.

"4. A universal tax.

"5. A universal draft [and]

"6. They intend on utterly rooting out people who believe the Bible and worship God and to completely stamp out Christianity [from the face of this earth].

"As was discussed prior to this summary, certain people have indicated that they see the Catholic Church as an enemy. Here, Mrs. Cumbey says that they see not only Catholicism as the enemy, they also see all of Christianity as an enemy.


"Whatever the New Agers believe in[, folks,] it appears to be growing in popularity. Bantam Books, one of this nation’s leading publishing houses, has reported that the sales of their New Age titles has increased tenfold in the past decade. Time magazine reports that the number of New Age bookstores has doubled in the past five years to a total of about 2,500. According to an article in Forbes magazine: 'publishers estimate that total sales of New Age titles today are at least $100 million at retail.'

"So, whatever they believe in, many believe in it.

"But perhaps the most insightful comment about the nature of what the New Age religion believe in, and who they worshiped as their god, was written by Mrs. Cumbey in her book, entitled The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow. She wrote that they had: 'the intent of bringing about a New World Order -- an order that writes God out of the picture and deifies Lucifer.'

"So, if Mrs. Cumbey and the other writers on the subject are right, the New Age movement needs to be studied in some depth."

[William Cooper]: We know that the goal of Freemasonry, at least that which is stated, is to bring about the new man, the illumined man. And the number of the man is 666.

Now, you know what we need to do folks? I want you to listen to this closing song. Good night, and God bless you all.
