I.

Once Upon

A

Nightmare

 

"All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest. His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber. Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter. Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant." Isaiah 56:9-12

 

"And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks? Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock. The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them. And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered. My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them. Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock; Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them." Ezekiel 34:1-10

 

Once upon a time

Fairy tales often begin

And happily ever after

They always seem to end

 

Yet we live in the world that is

Not of make believe or fantasy

A place where nightmares come true

And life is not always a dream

 

Thus it was once upon a nightmare

That I was awakened for to see

A vision that opened my eyes

To stark naked reality

 

It was beyond this unseen veil

That I seen with my spiritual eyes

And I beheld a great huge mountain

Which reached beyond the sky

 

And I saw upon this mountain

A strait and narrow path

A way of snares, pit falls and dangers

And rough places so hard to pass

 

And as I beheld this vision

It was such an incredible sight

I then noticed an old man descending

Grasping a two edged sword with which to fight

 

This old man screamed and he shouted

As he climbed down that narrow path

He appeared to be alarmed and yet angry

As if he was driven by both horror and wrath

 

Thus I turned to see the cause

Of such great anger and wild alarm

Yet what I beheld seemed totally harmless

For in the valley there stood a sheep farm

 

It was fenced in and kept by a wide gate

Appearing so massive and vast

The multitudes of lambs could not even be counted

For they were herded into such a big mass

 

And there was a sign that stood on a highway

That ran crooked and curved down below

It read: "This is the Broadway to Destruction"

Which led into the wide gate of that massive sheep fold

 

Then from every direction they gathered

A great army of shepherds preparing to fight

Marching in from their various fields

Setting up their Sound Systems, Pulpits and Mics

 

Then as a few of the lambs began to listen

To the old man in the distance who cried

These shepherds drowned out his voice

As they contradicted his message with their lies

 

Dressed in white robes they appeared to be holy

Looking so righteous, so pure and so bold

Standing together so proud and so mighty

So sure of their purpose and unified in their goal

 

Back to back and shoulder to shoulder

They stood ready with clubs and stones in their hands

Surrounding the fold so no lambs could get out

And guarding the gate against the old man

 

Then as the old man drew very near

He was suddenly taken aback

For the shepherds all gathered against him

And they all began to attack

 

They beat and stoned him without any mercy

Until his blood flowed and soaked the parched earth

Then they kicked him and stomped him to murder

Trying desperately to silence his message they heard

 

Then suddenly a great stirring arose

Coming from amongst the lambs of the fold

I then saw hideous Warewolves in sheep's clothing

Transforming as they began to disrobed

 

It was such a massacre of blood thirst and carnage

This slaughter of the lambs I beheld

They were devoured in a bloodbath of madness

Being ripped and torn in a frenzy of hell

 

And not even one single lamb could escape

This holocaust of horror that unfolded within

For their shepherds trapped them inside

To be sacrificed to devils and to die in their sin

 

Thus the vision was finally all over

And the meaning was so crystal clear

There are two paths laid out before us

And there is a wrong choice that we should all fear

 

For so many false shepherds abound

Working in many new Ministry fields

And they are deceiving so many blind Christians

Who to their seductions they so easily yield

 

Yet there are so few true Shepherds and Watchmen

Who are faithfully warning the fold

Because they are contradicted by so many voices

For being fashioned as to holy and old

 

Thus they are slandered, mocked and maligned

Stoned with words so malicious and mean

To assassinate their characters as being legalistic and unloving

In order to cast doubt on the message they bring

 

For these false shepherds have so much to protect

In the way of positions, prosperity and greed

That they might live in the worldly pleasures of the flesh

By corrupting the masses with the carnality they feed

 

Creating such mass multitudes of Counterfeit Christians

Who blindly follow the evil error of their apostasy

To worship their idols in the name of Christ Jesus

Under an antichrist spirit of such blasphemy

 

Thus the Warewolves that come disguised wearing sheep's clothing

Are welcomed right into the fold

For such are the entertainers and singers they lust for

Just as God's Word has already foretold

 

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine;..."

"...they shall turn away their ears from the truth,"

And then they "...shall be turned unto fables."

For their souls have been sold to seduce

 

Thus these Warewolves have come to devour

These souls trapped under their spell

Who know not that they are being deluded

As they are driven ever closer to hell

 

"Thus...Stand ye in the ways..."

Of both the Narrow and the Broad

And carefully consider the latter end

Of the path which you choose to trod

 

For the Old Path is the good way

Choose the strait and narrow before it's too late

Because if you should choose to take the broad way

You are thus sealing your own worst and darkest fate.

"Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken." Jeremiah 6:16-17

 

"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it." Matthew 7:13-27

II.

Take Heed

or

Be Deceived!

 

"And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them." Luke 21:8

 

The Holy Spirit hath spoken expressly

That in the latter times

Seducing spirits and doctrines of devils

Shall be given heed unto in kind

(1st Timothy 4:1 / 2nd Peter 2:1-2)

 

By those who will not endure sound doctrine

Heaping unto themselves false teachers in lust

Turning their ears away from the truth

Thus turned unto fables by the wicked unjust

(2nd Timothy 4:3-4 / 2nd Peter 2:18-19)

 

Having a form of Godliness

Yet denying the power thereof

From such we are commanded to turn away

Lest we be seduced by their carnal false love

(2nd Timothy 3:1-5 / Jude 1:3-4)

 

Unto another Jesus, spirit and gospel

As the serpent beguiled Eve

Perverting her faith by Lust and Pride

Jesus warned us that many would be thus deceived

(2nd Corinthians 11:3-4 / Matthew 24:4,11,24)

 

They that have ears to hear let them hear

They that have eyes to see let them see

For if you receive not the love of the truth

You’ve chosen strong delusion to follow the beast

(2nd Thessalonians 2:9-12 / Revelation 14:9-12)

© 2001 Raymond Bolton Pena

 

"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.  Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears." Acts 20:28-31

III.

Them

that

Seduce You

 

"These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you."

1st John 2:26

 

"And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them." Luke 21:8

 

"But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him....” 

 

"...For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works." 2nd Corinthians 11:3-5,13-15

 

They come in the name of Jesus

Speaking the truth in love

Their Message is Biblically Sound

The End Times they especially speak of

 

Using the truth as a stage

Behold the flocks as they gather to hear

Little lambs and grown sheep in their masses

They know not that old Satan is near

 

He comes as an Angel of light

Thus his Ministers transform themselves so

Like the Ministers of righteousness and truth

Could it be you have never been told?

 

They seek your heart’s trust to gain

Teaching what you know to be right

Then in comes the heresy so little by little

insidiously creeping in right under your sight

 

A little leaven and nobody cares

For after all, it sounds really so good

And though it is not found in the Word

They know that upon the Word this same Minister has stood

 

Thus the lump begins to be leavened

But by now nobody can see

Because their minds and hearts are now corrupted

And their souls have been totally deceived

 

Thus beware of them that seduce you

For they are now upon every hand

Plead the Blood of Jesus for wisdom and guidance

And put no trust in any flesh and blood man.

 

You must study your own Bible daily

Rightly dividing the Word of God’s Truth

Let God’s Word alone be the Light of your path

For by Satan’s false light you need not be seduced.

© 2005 Raymond Bolton Pena

 

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.  And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life. These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him." 1st John 2:15-29

IV.

Beware

of

False Prophets

 

"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves." Matthew 7:15

 

Beware of the false prophets

They who come disguised in shepherd's cloths

Claiming to be God's End Time Forerunners

Usurping authority over your soul

 

As "The" Voice of one crying in the wilderness

As some Last Day Prophet of God

Or as a Sign of Jonah the Prophet

Such titles these men seem to love

 

As "The" Apostle of God's Last Day Remnant

As "The" Bishop of "The" Church they pride

As some Last Day's John the Baptist and/or an Elijah

Yet the truth exposes their lies

 

"I must be acknowledged as being God's Prophet"

That was not what the greatest prophet did say (Luke 7:28)

He said: "He must increase, but I must decrease" (John 3:30)

Thus their self exaltations give them away

 

Therefore beware of such false prophets

And only give thy submission where submission is due

Yet remember that your loyalty belongs foremost to Jesus

And not to mere mortal men who claim to be true.

© 2007 Raymond Bolton Pena

 

"He must increase, but I must decrease. He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all. And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony. He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:30-36

Wolves

Amongst Us

 

"Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears."  Acts 20:26-31

 

Wolves they walk amongst us

Devouring the innocent prey

As Hirelings scoff against the night watchmen

Who plead to show the way

 

Thus lying spirits manifest

Through their defiled and unclean lips

Protecting their idols of worship

While exposing themselves as hypocrites

 

Accusing the righteous of legalism

It's a satanic reversal in the highest degree

They are blinded by their Father the Devil

And such are in danger of following the beast

 

Thus repent you generation of vipers

For your worship of devils shall come to an end

And when you stand before the God you blaspheme

You shall be judged for your compromise and sin

 

For embracing the worship of demons

Through worldly entertainments by giving them place

Such are an abomination that maketh desolate

And your hypocrisy is an unholy disgrace

 

You have refused to heed God's warnings

You have resisted the truth by twisting God's Word

You are imposters who teach nothing but lies

Thus you now fear for the truth to be heard

 

Wolves they walk amongst us

They are the "Christian" Entertainers the masses adore

They are the Media Preachers and Teachers

Who the hireling Pastors by their silence endorse

 

They are the wolf packs which sit on our pews

Speaking evil of all that is true

They are the Families, relatives and friends

Of the imposters they follow and choose

 

Thus they are creating mass counterfeit conversions

Oh the multitudes they have under their spell

Leading them into eternal perdition

Thus making them two fold more the very child of Hell.

© 1994 Raymond Bolton Pena

 

"And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks? Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock. The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them. And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered. My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them. Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock; Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them." Ezekiel 34:1-10

VI.

Perilous Times

 

"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, lead away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.  Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was...Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived." 2nd Timothy 3:1-9,12-13

 

Lust, greed and pride

Or anything you like

Just name your sin, fancy or vice

It does not matter anymore

Bring it through the Churches' doors

Just be sure to do it all in the name of Jesus Christ

 

It's the time of Jubilee

And everyone is foot loose and fancy free

It's a celebration of Jesus and the party is on

It's a Rock-n-Roll Hip-Hop affair

In Churches everywhere

It's an unholy revival turned so very wicked and wrong

 

There's very little true preaching anymore

for the truth is so deplored

They have rejected God's Word in favor of their fables

Sound Doctrine is not endured

For it's not a fleshly carnal lure

Thus no one can use it to get signed to a Christian Industry Label

 

Lets face it, It just don't sell

And in their sins it don't set well

For the truth and the lie can never walk hand in hand

The Church and the World are never one

Unless it's this false Gospel of carnal fun

And now this Counterfeit Gospel of hypocrisy fills our land

 

The Fear of God they undermine

As in their sins they so decline

The antichrist spirit of lawlessness has marked their ungodly souls

It's the Mystery of Iniquity

And such corruptions they have reaped

For the worldly pleasures which they have practiced and thus have sown

 

Spiritual fornicators they have become

In their pleasures of worldly fun

We now live within such wicked perilous days

Exposed half naked and shameless

The ungodly are now viewed as being blameless

As the perverted and reprobate are admired and even praised

 

Wearing fashions in Church revealing their bodies

It's now OK to be really naughty

The spirit of whoredom and adultery is manifesting everywhere

Having a form of godliness denying its power

How did we ever come to this hour

When so many Pastors and their congregations could less but care?

 

The men now wear ear rings just like women

With such long hair it's so effeminate

Who hath bewitched their minds to think so carnal and vain?

The women are now their Leaders

Appearing so masculine in their fashions and features

Don't they know that such unnatural sodomite expressions are a shame?

 

The last days are now here

When the Church at large is so very queer

As the growing pressure to walk in the flesh is no longer decried

When temptations are all around

And in the Churches sin so abounds

It now seems that there is no place left to run and hide

 

Yet no temptation hath taken you or I

By an overpowering force or great surprise

But such as is common to all men

God is faithful to keep us awake

And he will make a way of  escape

So that we don't have to live in such like sins

 

For every man is tempted by his own lust

And drawn away to such disgust

When allured from within by his own heart to be enticed

We must not make no excuse

Or our own hearts we shall seduce

It's time for us to rise and stand up by faith unto the fight

 

For sin has no power to make us bend

Nor dominion over us to sin

Yet we must believe that God's Word is faithful and really true

For only then shall we be able to stand

When we know that God is for us and says that we can

Thus let stand and fight this battle for Spiritual Life in victory through

 

We must overcome the world at all cost

Lest we fall into the perdition of the lost

Perilous times are here so take your stand

Let us be counted for the Cross

Let us shine brightly against the false

For the Judgment of God has never been so close at hand.

"I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." 2nd Thessalonians 4:1-5

VII.

Doctrines

of

Devils

 

"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;" 1st Timothy 4:1

 

Living like the Devil

In worldly pleasures and unbelief

Under the power of the working of Satan

Taken in by his subtle deceit

 

Awaiting a Pre-Tribulation Rapture

To save them from the mark

Such as these are in danger of accepting the beast

For this doctrine was demonic from the start

 

Once Saved Always Saved

It puts their darkened minds at ease

Believing in Eternal Security

They think they can live any way that they please

 

With no fear of God to turn from their sins

Peace and safty is their cry

Yet sudden destruction shall come unto them

And in their sins they shall blindly die

 

For these Doctrines of Devils which they embrace

Work to deceive them hand in hand

Seducing them away from the fear of God

Insidiously destroying their resistance against sin

 

Unrepentant and unconcerned

They close their ears to the love of the truth

They have made an agreement with Death and Hell

Thus they reason: "How can they lose?"

 

Secure in time and in eternity

At peace and safty against Death and Hell

How fearful for them when judgment day comes

For their agreement shall surely fail.

© 1993 Raymond Bolton Pena

 

"But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it." Isaiah 28:13-18

The Jaws

of the

Beast

 

"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear. He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." Revelation 13:1-18

 

There is a great white shark within the waters

But no one seems to care

The crowds want their entertainment

So no one warns them to beware

 

The village leaders are staying silent

So the people will not be scared

If the truth be told the party will be over

And there will be no money made to share

 

Thus the near naked crowds race to the beaches

Oh what fun and glee

Splashing oh so happy

Unaware of the coming beast

 

Then the shark rises without warning

Its teeth like razor steel

Ripping, tearing and chopping

Oh the people that it kills!

 

This world is like an ocean

And the Church is like a boat

Sailing through the darkness

By grace to stay afloat

 

Come out from among them my people

Be ye separate saith the LORD

For a Church of entertainment

Is a vessel of wrath in store

 

Jesus Christ was never a hippy

And His worship is not a contemporary song

His Church is not a whore house

Where anything goes as if nothing is wrong

 

Like half naked congregations

Where mothers and daughters are dressed to strut

Revealing their bodies through modern fashions

Tempting every man to lust

 

Like perverted pastors mesmerized

By T.he-obscenity B.roadcasting N.etwork of Charismatic Hollywood

Creating mass counterfeit converts

Because they're making money and business is good

 

Too many preachers are remaining silent

And the watchmen are fast asleep

The media prophets are all twisted

Thus to hell they're doomed to sink

 

For the religious masses are blindly swimming

In the depths of Satan without a clue

And without God's Word as their foundation

They can not hope to make it through

 

For a Beast is quickly rising

And he is coming to mark his own

He is the great false prophet

And his religion comes strait from Rome

 

He is a counterfeit Christian alliance

He has two horns just like a lamb

Yet he speaks as the dragon he is

Which means that he deceives the sons of men

 

He calls fire down out of heaven

Upon the earth in every one's sight

He is a republican conservative power

Of the most extreme wing of the religious right

 

His bombs of fire are fearful and mighty

Yet greater miracles to perform

He makes an Image to a one world Church

Which makes its number to be then worn

 

Christian America are you reading

The hand writing on the wall?

The Religion of Antichrist is a Corrupt Christianity

Thus with your Crossless Christianity you shall fall

 

Therefore beware and be forewarned

This Beast it doth arise

In the name of peace and safety

Unto the undiscerning, ecumenical and unwise

 

For when they cry out for peace and safety

Sudden destruction shall come

Upon the unrepentant and ungodly

Who pervert the Cross of God's Holy Son

 

Sudden destruction shall come with a great shaking

Then the Beast it shall arise

Through a conspiracy of terrorism

A paranoid population gives up all of their rights

 

Beware of the Beast that is rising

The right wing of the eagle is the power of his arm

To persecute God's Holy Remnant

Yet unto the filthy pigeons he shall do no harm

 

Woe unto America's Pastors and Prophets

Woe unto the Evangelist and Watchmen who warn not the Church

  Woe unto the Religious Broadcasting Networks

Woe unto the Religious Celebrities who partake in their works

 

Woe unto the Religious Publishing Industries

Who publish fictitious and ecumenical lies

Woe unto the perverters of God's true Bible

For the Old King James Version they have despised

 

Woe unto the Religious Entertainers and Industries

Woe unto the Idolatries that they sell

Woe unto the Denominational Elders and Leaders

For making the masses twofold more the very child of hell.

"Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! Saith the LORD. Therefore  thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings saith the LORD."

Ecumenical Manipulation

 

"But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him two fold more the child of hell than yourselves" Matthew 23:13,15

 

Congregated and falsely indoctrinated

It's the blind that leads the blind

Overseers who are deceivers

The Word of God they've redefined

 

Systematic religious orders

And denominational cults

Sheep they gather under their submission

To question their lies is considered a revolt

 

Socialistic egotistical

Worshippers of men

Brick and mortar idol temples

Religious empires made of sand

 

Heathenistic Evangelism

A radical seduction takes its toll

Worldly music plus perverted worship

Equals the fear of God unknown

 

Sinister ministers and deceived deceivers

Are practicing their witchery throughout the land

They are a sign which testifies

That the revealing of the antichrist is at hand

 

Insidiously seducing the masses

In preparation to follow the beast

In whom the god of this world hath blinded their minds

For their rebellion and unbelief

 

Nullifying the Word of God

Into conformity with their own sins

They persecute the righteous who reprove them

When for the true Faith the righteous contend

 

So beware of this harlot Church system

The one world Church that is now on the rise

For it is an ecumenical manipulation

When religious orders and Christian denominations unite

 

All coming together in the name of social reform

Political and Apostate: THUS  BE  FOREWARNED!

"And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth." Revelation 17:1-9

The

Atmospheric Ascendancy

of the

Antichrist

 

"Even him whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2nd Thessalonians 2:9-12

 

"And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins: Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus." Ephesians 2:1-7

 

When good is evil

and evil is good

When reality and truth

are no longer understood

 

When light is as darkness

and dark is as light

When love waxes cold

and for peace they shall fight

 

When the Christian Church becomes Contemporary

and all religions come together as one

Woe unto them all

for that Anti-Christ hath come

 

When Catholic and Protestant pigeons shall perch

in their ecumenical false love

Then the right winged eagle shall devour

the innocent and uncompromising doves

 

When bitter is sweet

and sweet becomes bitter

And the judgment of God

falls upon all wicked sinners

 

Then shall the Saints

be raised to prevail

For at the brightness of Christ's second coming

Satan's darkness shall fail.

© 1993 Raymond Bolton Pena

 

"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" Isaiah 5:20

The Falling Away

Hath Come

 

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall 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 worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2nd Thessalonians 2:3-12

 

The Falling Away hath come

The Church and the World are one

The Falling Away hath come

Thus look for that unholy lawless One

 

For the Man of Sin shall be revealed

Through an atmospheric ascendency

And it was this Ice Cold Church which created the conditions

For the whole world to be deceived

 

This spiritually lawless Son of Perdition

The World doth now embrace

It's the satanic mystery of iniquity

A spiritual mass body of Apostates

 

Christ in you - the hope of glory

The hidden mystery of God

Antichrist in them - the untold story

A counterfeit Church not washed in the blood

 

Jesus Christ the head of His Body

The Bride of Christ arrayed in White

Antichrist the head of this Woman

The Mother of Harlots an astonishing sight

 

She bought her stairway to heaven

On the highway to hell in godless disgrace

Judas was so offended at Bethel

He betrayed our Lord with a kiss to the face

 

Thus the Antichrist is rising

Yet so few have been given to see

It is a world wide revival of lucifer's magick

It is a Crossless and Counterfeit Christianity

 

Birthed forth from spiritual fornication

A Harlot Church and the World become one

Jesuit Futurism has blinded the Christians

The Catholic Church is the Beast already come

 

Thus the Antichrist Man of Sin

Shall be the Religious Monarch of the World

As the Head of the State and the Church

Like a brain dictates a reponse that is neuro

"...and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

Behold

the

Goat of Satan

"Christian" Rock Music's Sinful Messiah

 

"Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2nd Thessalonians 2:9-12

 

Behold the Goat of Satan

Which taketh away the sacredness of the Church

It is the spirit of antichrist that is risen

After the working which Satan hath worked

(2nd Thessalonians 2:7-9 / 1st John 2:15-18)

 

They called themselves the "Jesus People"

A Rock Music Cult seducing Christians to sin

While they themselves were the servants of corruption

They promised a false liberty not to repent

(2nd Peter 2:14-19)

 

Once clean escaped from the pollutions of the world

So many are now entangled again

Deceived by the lies of a Rock'n'roll Church

So blind and corrupt they can't comprehend

(2nd Peter 2:18-19 / John 8:42-45)

 

This falling away was foretold long ago

By Holy Prophets and Apostles of old

Millions shall die lost in the worldliness and lies

Of a religious world whose soul has been sold

(2nd Thessalonians 2:3-4 / Matthew 7:21-23)

 

Their False Messiah was called "JESUS CHRIST SUPER STAR"

His fame and popularity still grows

Did not the Apostle Paul warn that such would arise

As we now see and behold?

(2nd Corinthians 11:3-4)

 

Jesus Christ warned: "Take heed that no man deceive you

For many shall come in my name

Saying I am Christ, and they shall deceive many"

Such put God's Word to such open shame

(Matthew 24:3-5)

 

For they gave the Christian masses a sensuous Queer Hippy

Effeminate and carnal in lust

Yet their Sinful Messiah is really a demon

Thus their contemporary worship is a pagan disgust

(2nd Corinthians 11:13-15 / 2nd Corinthians 6:14-18 / Ephesians 4:4-24)

 

Now multitudes are trying desperately to be just like the world

Such are counterfeit converts who need to repent

Conformed to their former lust of worldliness in ignorance

They are the children of wrath, disobedience and sin

(Matthew 7:13-14 / 1st Peter 1:13-25 / Ephesians 5:1-7)

 

They cry ''Judge Not'' and ''Legalism'' when they’re reproved

For they will not receive the love of the truth

They refuse to endure sound doctrine as such

Thus after their own lust they've been seduced

(Matthew 7:1-20 / 2nd Thessalonians 2:9-12)

 

Heaping unto themselves pernicious false teachers

Having itching ears they've turned from the truth

Thus they are turned unto fables and lies

So blinded by false prophets they don't have a clue

(2nd Timothy 4:1-4 / 2nd Corinthians 4:3-4)

 

They are a fulfillment of true Bible Prophecy

Not knowing the difference between the Holy and Profane

Conformed to the world and not to God's Word

Such are the ultimate conformist to worldliness and shame

(Romans 12:1-2 / Ephesians 5:8-16)

 

With no sound doctrine as a foundation to stand

The religious entertainers have twisted their minds

Unable to see beyond this Worldly Cult's mind control

Such are unbelieving, corrupted and blind

(2nd Peter 2:1-3 / Hebrews 3:12-14)

 

The Jesus People claimed to be a new breed of Evangelist

Using the Arts to Evangelize for the Lord Jesus Christ

Yet in reality they were corrupt and Satanic

Seducing Christians into worldliness and vice

(1st John 2:26-29...3:7-14...4:1-6)

 

Thus they were really evangelizing the Church for Satan

Deceiving and being deceived

Waxing worse and worse in all of their compromises

Such were perverted by lust, pride and greed

(1st Timothy 4:1-2 / 2nd Timothy 3:1-17)

 

They were of the spirit of antichrist

Take heed to these words that I say

Their Christianity is counterfeit and delusive

And for their blasphemies they shall sure pay

(1st John 2:18)

 

For the wages of sin is still death

Thus spiritual death has darkened their souls

And in the end their perversions shall damn them

For they shall reap the death they have sown

(Galatians 6:7-8)

 

Like a Dog turned again to its own vomit

And like a Hog that returns to wallow with sows

They have turned from the Holy Commandment delivered to them

Not knowing that it was better that they never had known

(2nd Peter 2:20-22)

 

Therefore repent and come out from among them

Be not a partaker of their perdition and shame

For such have perverted the Cross and message of Christ

Thus such shall suffer God's Vengeance in flames

(Hebrews 10:19-31)

© 1998 Raymond Bolton Pena

  

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-23
