Lies.


Generation X are liars, cheats, and thieves.

They call themselves bad.

And they invoke pure evil.

But they think that their violence and hate is good.

They use the Religious Right to justify their evil.

And they pretend that it is good.

They are lying to themselves.

But their time is up.

Now they must face the fact that their actions are evil.

David and Jonathan.


"Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.  And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle."   1 Samuel 18:3,4 (KJV)

This passage in the Bible is a major justification for homosexuality.

There is no condemnation of Jonathan and David's behavior.

In fact it is celebrated.

"I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan, greatly beloved were you to me; Your love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women."  2 Samuel 1:26 (NRSV)

And so the Bible celebrates the love of two faithful men, even to the physical consummation of their love.

And so it will be with men in the future.

Stereotype.


As soon as you type in gay on the Internet all the photos are nude. 

This is part of the stereotype of gay men.

Gay men are assumed to be obsessed exclusively with sex.

And this applies doubly to vintage gay men.

The gay men of the 1970s are thought to have been punished for excessive indulgence in sex.

I have heard people say that the gay men of the 70s had sex with 15 men a night.

This is ridiculous. 

It is not even physically possible.

But the prejudice persists.

And the hypocrisy remains.

Gay men are no more obsessed with sex than straight men.

We are all looking for love.

And a lasting relationship.

So when you think of gay men ask yourself if you are perpetuating the stereotype.

And when you think of the gay men of the 70s see whether you are harboring unfair prejudice.

Aquarius.


Despite the fact that new revelations are appearing in Progressive Christianity the event is essentially a manifestation of Aquarius.

Therefore the Churches cannot appropriate these insights and continue to exclude gays and lesbians who are essentially the inspiration for these new revelations.

Gays and lesbians are governed by Aquarius.

So the Age of Aquarius will see greater acceptance and respect for gay people.

The homophobic stance of the Churches must change.

Progressive Christianity is essentially accepting, even celebrating of gay relationships.

And so the Church must change or die.

But gay people will live and know freedom at last.

Jeremiah.


"Did not your father eat and drink and do justice and righteousness?  Then it was well with him.
He judged the cause of the poor and needy, then it was well.
Is not this to know me? says the Lord.
But your eyes and heart are only on your dishonest gain, for the shedding of innocent blood, and for practising oppression and violence."  Jeremiah 22:15-17 (NRSV)

Is not this the message of the Prophets?

To aid the poor and needy, not to seek dishonest gain through oppression and violence.

And is not this the difference between the Democrats and the Republicans?

Despite the fact that the Republicans wave the Bible and the Democrats do not!

Have they ever read the Bible?

The Book of Jeremiah is in the Old Testament.

I'm speechless.

Suicidal Songs.

 


Rock music is full of suicidal songs.

By tapping into adolescent frustration rock musicians feed a death-wish which they hope will lead to suicide.

From the Beatles to Pearl Jam, from the David Bowie to Katy Perry these songs are poisoning our minds.

And make no mistake this is quite deliberate.

Rock musicians are black magicians.

They sell their souls and worship Satan.

They do the devil's work which is the work of hate and death.

They try to kill you.

And they want you damned.

This is the work of modern Satanism.

It is in rock music and popular culture.

And they want you dead.

Death and Life.


The Bible and other religious texts talk about death and life.

Mostly this refers to a person's spiritual condition.

St. Paul talks about death to God which he says is caused by sin and the devil.

But rather than some fixed spiritual state I believe this refers to our behavior.

Whether we are "choosing the things that please God."  Isaiah 56:4 (NRSV)

And what are the things that please God? 

Aiding the poor and needy, the widow, the orphan, the alien.....(Old Testament Prophets).

As opposed to: "dishonest gain, for shedding of innocent blood, and for practising oppression and violence."  Jeremiah 22:17 (NRSV)

But most of all Life is attained by Love. 

There is but one commandment.

That we love one another.  John 15:12 (NRSV)

There is however one catch.

Most negative behavior is caused by fear.

And 'perfect love casts out fear."  1 John 4:18 (NRSV)

So when we experience the perfect Love of God our fear disappears and we are able to love.

"We love because he first loved us."  1 John 4:19 (NRSV)

So the Holy Spirit which is the Nephesh (the Breath of Life) and an expression of God's Love brings Life!

The Prophets.


"'Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.'"  Luke 13:35 (NRSV)

This relates to the Prophets.

The Prophets are sent by God to criticize the leadership of the Temple.

Because it is the corruption and lack of understanding of the leaders - the shepherds - which causes the suffering of the people. 

And so we see the ancient Prophets of Israel criticizing both the religious and the political leadership of their time.

Jesus is firmly in this line although he reserves his harshest words for the religious leadership.

"'you did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering..'"  Luke 11;52 (NRSV)

Unfortunately this is what got Jesus crucified.

"'Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it.'"  Luke 13;34 (NRSV)

And this is part of a pattern.

God's Prophets are killed by the leaders because they fear losing their privileges.

The Prophets' criticism is intended to improve the teachings and practices of religion.

In some Buddhist monasteries there is one day of the year set aside for the mendicants to criticize their superiors.

This is done to stop complaisance and corruption creeping in.

I suspect we need more than one day in the year to refine the religious and political leadership of our world.

Love.


The more love we give.

The more love there is to give.

Tongues.


Have you noticed people making the sign of the devil and poking out their tongues?

People copy it is true.

But who are they copying?

These gestures originate with rock stars who have sold their souls to the devil.

And people copy them.

Do they know what they are doing?

Do they know what it signifies?

Perhaps not.

But the rock stars who started it do.

And then they deny it.

"It means something else" they will say.

Like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

What a lie that was.

Their messages are subliminal.

They hide the dark secret of rock music.

Rock music is Satanism.

Generation X.

People have always turned to the devil as an alternative to God.

But never before has a whole generation turned to the dark side.

Generation X delights in the darkness.

They wear all black.

And they call themselves bad.

They invoke "pure evil".

And many of them have turned to Satanism.

But their evil violence and hate is whitewashed by the Religious Right who have sided with them for political reasons.

And they make terrible Christians.

They are judgemental, violent, and hateful.

They believe blatant lies.

And they persecute gays and lesbians.

They "loved the darkness rather than the light because their deeds were evil."  John 3:19 (NRSV)

So the answer is to look to the light.

Jesus is "'the light of the world.'"  John 8:12 (NRSV)

And God is Good.

God is compassionate, forgiving, and merciful.

But most of all:

God is Love.

Satanic Rock.


When the Rolling Stones invented rock music in 1962 Neptune (which governs music) was at 13° Scorpio (the accursed degree of the accursed sign).

Scorpio governs secrets.

And so the secret evil of Satanic rock music was born.

Rock stars sold their souls and poisoned their fans.

Sex and drugs and rock and roll ruined three generations of youth.

And it is still with us today.

You don't have to look too closely to see the evil nature of today's rock music.

And the Rolling Stones are still around.

Death, excess, suicide, and evil underwrite their music.

Rock music is Satanic.

The Sea of Fertility.


Yukio Mishima's final novels are called The Sea of Fertility.

But Mishima himself said that the title was meant to be ironic, comparing it to the arid seas on the moon*.

This reflects the Buddhist doctrine that all life is unsatisfactory.

And indeed all life is unsatisfactory until we find love.

Love is the water in the jar of Aquarius.

The Egyptian hieroglyph ab - a jar - means the heart.

And the water that flows form the jar is love.

So all life is indeed unsatisfactory and arid like the seas of the moon until we find the water that makes life fertile, and that is the love within our own hearts.


(*The Sea of Fertility is one of the seas on the moon.)

Evil.


Beware of anything in the media which casts evil as the hero or the protagonist.

It is the work of Satanists in our entertainment industries.

It will confuse and corrupt you.

It will magnify evil.

And it will seduce you to the dark side.

Black, death, hate, violence, malevolence, malice, horns, spiders, webs, snakes.....

All these things are linked to evil. 

So be aware.

And beware.

The Empire Strikes Back.


After the idealistic 1960s and 1970s the world reasserted itself in the 1980s.

1984 saw Pluto entering Scorpio and the temptations of power proved too strong.

Violence, hate, and evil prevailed.

Revenge, torture, and brainwashing saw the idealistic Baby-Boomers reconstructed.

And we endured The End of History.

But the Jedi will return with the entry of planets into Aquarius.

I pray that we be protected from political plots, Satanic attacks, and all worldly temptations.

Heaven.


I am a sexually active gay man.

I know through my relationship with God that I will go to Heaven when I die.

And I know that the great ordeal that gay men have endured will ensure their place in Paradise.

But how many young gay men know this?

They are constantly told that God hates them and that they will go to hell if they express their sexuality.

Who tells them of God's Love?

Who tells them that God loves them as they are?

It is my job through the confidence that God has given me to state with certainty that all gay people will be welcomed in Heaven.

We are not devils.
 
We are not beasts.

We are human beings like you.

And we will claim our place in Paradise.

The Kingdom of God.


Some say that the Kingdom of God is the Church and that membership of Church is membership of the Kingdom.

Others say that membership of the Kingdom id restricted to those who have accepted Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior.

But for far too long the Kingdom of God has been defined by who is excluded rather than who is included.

Jesus said: "'The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near, repent, and believe the good news.'"  Mark 1:15 (NRSV)  

By this Jesus meant that the Kingdom of God was available to anyone.

And the Kingdom of God was characterized by the Beatitudes: Heaven, comfort, meekness, righteousness, mercy, love, peace, and endurance.

This is contrasted with the ways of the world which Jesus called evil.

So to enter the Kingdom of God we must accept God as King over us.

And this is Good News!

Because God is considerate.

God is good.

God is merciful.

God is forgiving.

God is compassionate.

God is generous.

God is reliable.

God is trustworthy.

God is faithful.

But most of all:

God is Love.

So love God and love your neighbor.

And enter the Kingdom of God.

Plots.


Right-wing plutocrats and politicians have plotted to dismantle the left-wing agenda by flooding the Internet with toxic posts.

Scare tactics, smear campaigns, and blatant lies have seen narrow victories for the right wing in the past.

These campaigns are financed by rich individuals and corporations whose interest are served by right-wing governments.

They control public opinion through their media networks and Internet trolls.

This has resulted in the largest disparity between rich and poor in history.

Their motivation is money.

And they are in league with evil.

Right-wing Satanists in our popular culture conspire with them to control people's thinking using black magic and Satanist (backwards) techniques.

Hence the backwards words and images that assail us.

But there is a God.

And there is a vision for the appointed time.
  
And that time is now!

As the Light comes into the world it will expose these plots for what they are and the evil and corruption of the plutocrats will be revealed.

They conspire with the Religious Right to whitewash their crimes.

And they persecute left-wing candidates.

They are racist and homophobic.

They hate women.

And they hide in the darkness.

But their time is over.

Aquarius has begun.
