In modern times there has been a movement against God. Not just a passive one, but an active one. People are renting assembly halls, auditoriums, using the TV, billboards, the radio, among other mediums to express their sentiments against God. They are known asneo-atheists (see link for download of pdf article on the subject). They are not content with just not believing in God, but feel the need to actively preach their ideology to the masses, to get people to stop believing in him, which they believe is a sickness that needs to be cured. And they are the doctors. 

Apathy within many religions itself is widespread as Church attendance all over the world is down, and secularism has become the new god of the masses. 

But did you know that there has been a group of sincere Bible Students that for decades have been foretelling these events? Not only this, but before neo-atheists were on the world scene preaching their anti-god propaganda, this group of people was already exposing the hypocritical death-like condition that Christendom and the rest of “religion” on earth is in. Follow along to learn a little more about this movement and what it holds out for the near future. 

Religion is A Snare and a Racket 
The 1800’s were a time of great changes in society. Among them people were turning to the Bible to find answers to life’s problems. Coming out of the dark-ages where the Catholic Church had forbidden the translation of the Bible into mankind’s common tongues, and where one indeed risked losing his life being burned on a torture stake or beheaded for owning a single page of the Bible at the behest of that great monster, the people of the 1800’s in many parts had the Bible available in their language. Many began to read it and discover the hypocrisy within religion. 

One group of earnest Bible students who, through their study of the Bible that perceived that the end of the world was near, and that many of the teachings of Christendom were false, such as the idea that God burns people in a Hellfire, or that the soul is Immortal, or that there is a Trinity, were known as Bible Students. 

They started to separate themselves from the sects of Christendom, Catholicism, Orthodoxy and Protestantism and began to meet together. Their common goal was to read the Bible, and use the Bible itself as the supreme authority. They were not respecters of people, and refused to put traditions and doctrines of men above the written word of God as found in the Bible. 

As they cleansed themselves from many pagan and false teachings of the differing and warring sects of apostate Christendom they began to perceive that a worldwide preaching work was going to take place to give a witness to the name Jehovah God on an unprecedented scale. This group of Bible Students was at that time in the late 1800’s numbering but a few thousand, and they were wondering how this great world-wide preaching work as foretold in Matthew 24:14 would take place. But seeing their obligation to teach the people the truth they began to publish Bible tracts, the magazine then known as Zion’s Watchtower and Herald of Christ’s Presence (now known as The Watchtower Announcing Jehovah’s Kingdom) and later Bibles. 

Among their understanding of Bible truths was the fact that religion itself has been a snare to mankind since the start.

In those days these modern-day Christian Witnesses were known for their campaigns of walking through the streets with placards in their hands and on their cars. They decried the horrible condition in religion and carried strong worded messages against Christendom with words such as these: “Religion is a Snare and a Racket.” This when religion still hand a strong word in society, and where those actions brought reproach, and persecution, by both religious leaders, gangs of thugs lead by the clergy, and many times government officials as well. Long before the New Atheist movement was on the scene.

A very strong worded denouncement of religion was made by Judge Rutherford the then President of the Watchtower Society, the legal arm of Jehovah’s Witnesses, who were formally known as the Bible Students. Included in these scathing pronouncements against religion was the following one available for listening here: 
www.archive.org... 

Included in its exposure of religion Judge Rutherford stated: 


“Religion is wrong and a snare because it deceives the people, but that does not mean that all who follow religion are willingly bad. Religion is a racket because it has long been used, and is still used, to extract money from the people upon the theory and promise that the paying over of money to a priest will serve to relieve the party paying from punishment after death and further ensure his salvation.”


(For full audio that was played from sound cars all over the world see: Religion is a Snare and a Racket 

These scathing denunciations from the Jehovah’s Witnesses against religion continued to increase. Included in the past are some other strong-worded exposes against religion itself and what the Bible foretells is soon to happen to her…. 


The book published in 1971 entitled “The Nation’s Shall Know that I Am Jehovah – How” stated: 


WITH stunning impact will the news of Christendom’s destruction strike hypocritical religionists who are related to her…Because they have religiously attached God’s name to it, they may feel that God and his Son Jesus Christ will never permit Christendom to be destroyed. But how stunned they will be when he does permit it in verification of his prophecy!

Five years later the book published entitled: Man’s Salvation Out of World Distress at Hand! Printed this scathing prediction of religion: 
 


The “ten horns” of that symbolic scarlet-colored wild beast are destined to turn upon the harlotrous world empire of false religion…The symbolic “ten horns’ (the member nations of the world organization for peace and security) will lose their passionate attraction to the harlotrous world empire of false religion and will gore her to death. In fact, the whole symbolic wild beast (now the United Nations) will cease to find satisfaction in their lustful relationship with the “great harlot,” Babylon the Great, and the mouths of the “seven heads” of the scarlet-colored “wild beast” will “eat up her fleshy parts.” To the whole “wild beast” organization, “ten horns” and all, she will become as a worn-out old harlot, no longer desirable for greedy, selfish use. Realistically, under stress of the global crisis, the political rulers, whose nations are members in the United Nations, will become hardheaded in the light of the worsening world conditions. Ignoring all sentimentality, they will be forced to take drastic, heartless action for the preservation of their political institutions and social, economic structure. They will see that the world empire of false religion is an international nuisance and a hindrance to their emergency operations because of the Babylonish religious beliefs, practices and customs.





Thus, in light of the worsening world conditions, and acting preserve their own sovereignties, the nations will not have to turn communist, rather they will become radical, and acting as a whole to preserve the social and economic structure of things the world’s leaders will perceive religion as a nuisance and a hindrance to their emergency operations. What will then happen? It continues: 
 


We can imagine what this will mean to the Vatican and its Basilica of Saint Peter, to the religious cathedrals, churches, mosques, temples, synagogues, shrines, and to other religious structures! We can imagine what is in store for those who officiate in impressive vestments in those religious buildings. Let not Christendom imagine that she will escape because she parades before the world in the name of Christ. She, too, has played the religious “harlot” like her mother, Babylon the Great. The friendship that she has cultivated and maintained with the political and military elements of this world will fail her. She will be shocked at finding that adulterous friendship with this world made her an “enemy of God” and of his Christ.




In more recent times Jehovah’s Witnesses distributed the Kingdom News 37 tract entitled The End of False Religion is Near 

ad04e65f4e52.jpg



This message was published and distributed in over 400 languages by the hundreds of millions of copies around the world and is available online at the Watctower’s official website in over 400 languages. 

Back in the 1800’s when those sincere hearted and honest seekers of truth perceived that their would be a worldwide preaching work of Jehovah’s name could never have forseen the kingdom growth of God’s nation on earth in this our day. This good news of the kingdom is indeed now being proclaimed in all the inhabited earth as a witness to all the nations. Never before has it happened before. Never will it happen again. 

King Nebuchadnezzar was given a vision of an image in the Bible made up of different metals. A head of gold, shoulders of silver, a torso of copper, and legs of iron that lead into feet mixed with iron and clay. We are living in the time of the feet in that vision.

Ten in the Bible symbolizes completeness in an earthly respect. The ten toes represent the state of the political system of things at the end. Clay and iron do not mix, thus the strong stable elements of the political system of things would be intermingled with a radical element of instable humanity. We are seeing the fulfillment of this now. 

Heed the clear message of truth. Flee from false religion now before it is to late. 

True, there are many predictions of “end times” that come and go all the time. But no one but Jehovah’s Witnesses has been proclaiming world-wide for decades now the fall and destruction of religion. And as we see mankind’s aggressive nature turn more and more against her and we see the nation’s gathering together in one mind to do that very thing, no one is warning mankind of what is really happening. 

May you heed the warning and get away safe!

    • It appears to me that this is a key aspect of the 2030 initiative ideology. While the Rothschilds were indeed influential individuals who were able to sway governments, much like present-day billionaires, the true impetus for change stems from the omnipotent forces (Satan) shaping our world. In this case, there is a false God of this world. However, what drives action within a political framework? Power! What is unfolding before our eyes in today's world? The relentless struggle for power. The overwhelming tide of people rising. We cannot underestimate the direct and sinister influence of Satan in all of this. However, it is up to individuals to decide how they choose to worship God. Satanism, as a form of religion, cannot be regarded as a true religion. Consequently, just as ancient practices of child sacrifice had a place in God's world, such sacrifices would never be accepted by the True God of our universe. Despite the promising 2030 initiative for those involved, it is unfortunately disintegrating due to the actions of certain individuals in positions of authority. A recent incident serves as a glaring example, involving a conflict between peaceful Muslims and a Jewish representative that unfolded just this week. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/11/us-delegation-saudi-arabia-kippah?ref=upstract.com Saudi Arabia was among the countries that agreed to the initiative signed by approximately 179 nations in or around 1994. However, this initiative is now being undermined by the devil himself, who is sowing discord among the delegates due to the ongoing Jewish-Hamas (Palestine) conflict. Fostering antisemitism. What kind of sacrifice does Satan accept with the death of babies and children in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and other conflicts around the world, whether in the past or present, that God wouldn't? Whatever personal experiences we may have had with well-known individuals, true Christians understand that current events were foretold long ago, and nothing can prevent them from unfolding. What we are witnessing is the result of Satan's wrath upon humanity, as was predicted. A true religion will not involve itself in the politics of this world, as it is aware of the many detrimental factors associated with such engagement. It understands the true intentions of Satan for this world and wisely chooses to stay unaffected by them.
    • This idea that Satan can put Jews in power implies that God doesn't want Jews in power. But that would also imply that God only wants "Christians" including Hitler, Biden, Pol Pot, Chiang Kai-Shek, etc. 
    • @Mic Drop, I don't buy it. I watched the movie. It has all the hallmarks of the anti-semitic tropes that began to rise precipitously on social media during the last few years - pre-current-Gaza-war. And it has similarities to the same anti-semitic tropes that began to rise in Europe in the 900's to 1100's. It was back in the 500s AD/CE that many Khazars failed to take or keep land they fought for around what's now Ukraine and southern Russia. Khazars with a view to regaining power were still being driven out into the 900's. And therefore they migrated to what's now called Eastern Europe. It's also true that many of their groups converted to Judaism after settling in Eastern Europe. It's possibly also true that they could be hired as mercenaries even after their own designs on empire had dwindled.  But I think the film takes advantage of the fact that so few historical records have ever been considered reliable by the West when it comes to these regions. So it's easy to fill the vacuum with some very old antisemitic claims, fables, rumors, etc..  The mention of Eisenhower in the movie was kind of a giveaway, too. It's like, Oh NO! The United States had a Jew in power once. How on earth could THAT have happened? Could it be . . . SATAN??" Trying to tie a connection back to Babylonian Child Sacrifice Black Magick, Secret Satanism, and Baal worship has long been a trope for those who need to think that no Jews like the Rothschilds and Eisenhowers (????) etc would not have been able to get into power in otherwise "Christian" nations without help from Satan.    Does child sacrifice actually work to gain power?? Does drinking blood? Does pedophilia??? (also mentioned in the movie) Yes, it's an evil world and many people have evil ideologies based on greed and lust and ego. But how exactly does child sacrifice or pedophilia or drinking blood produce a more powerful nation or cabal of some kind? To me that's a giveaway that the authors know that the appeal will be to people who don't really care about actual historical evidence. Also, the author(s) of the video proved that they have not done much homework, but are just trying to fill that supposed knowledge gap by grasping at old paranoid and prejudicial premises. (BTW, my mother and grandmother, in 1941 and 1942, sat next to Dwight Eisenhower's mother at an assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Eisenhower family had been involved in a couple of "Christian" religions and a couple of them associated with IBSA and JWs for many years.)
