THE CUTTING EDGE

NEWSBRIEF: Chicago Tribune, Friday, 10/25/96, "POPE BOLSTERS CHURCH SUPPORT FOR EVOLUTION", by Stevenson Swanson, Tribune Staff Writer, Dateline: New York.

"In a major statement of the Roman Catholic Church's position on the theory of evolution, Pope John Paul II has proclaimed that the theory is 'more than just a hypothesis' and that evolution is compatible with Christian faith. In a written message to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, the pope said the theory of evolution has been buttressed by scientific studies and discoveries since Charles Darwin ... "It is indeed remarkable that this theory has progressively taken root in the minds of researchers following a series of discoveries made in different spheres of knowledge', the pope said in his message Wednesday. 'The convergence, neither sought nor provoked, of results of studies undertaken independently from each other constitutes, in itself, a significant argument in favor of this theory..."

"If taken literally, the Biblical view of the beginning of life and Darwin's scientific view would seem irreconcilable. In Genesis, the creation of the world, and Adam, the first human, took six days. Evolution's process of genetic mutation and natural selection-the survival and proliferation of the fittest new species-has taken billions of years, according to scientists ..."

"The Pope's message went much further in accepting the theory of evolution as a valid explanation of the development of life on Earth, with one major exception: the human soul. 'If the human body has its origin in living material which preexists it, the spiritual soul is immediately created by God', the Pope said."

I do not intend to treat this subject from the aspect of scientific debate, for writers with much greater scientific expertise than I will effectively write about this story from that angle. Rather, I wish to simply point out two succinct facts about this ludicrous statement:

  • 1) In this statement, the Pope contradicts the current religious teaching of his own Roman Catholic Church!! In the latest "Catechism of the Catholic Church", published in 1994, we read this teaching on Creation, "Our profession of faith begins with God, for God is the First and the Last, the beginning and the end of everything. The Credo begins with God the Father, for the Father is the first divine person of the Most Holy Trinity; our Creed begins with the Creation of heaven and earth, for creation is the beginning and the foundation of all God's works."1 While this teaching does not actually say, "God Created", it certainly leaves that unmistakable impression because of the context in speaking of God the Father. However, all doubt about what their teaching is, concerning the beginning of the universe, is removed later, under "Paragraph 4.
  • The Creator", when they say, "Conversely, the mystery of Christ casts conclusive light on the mystery of creation and reveals the end of which 'in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth': from the beginning, God envisaged the glory of the new creation in Christ."2
  • Then, a little later on, we read, "God himself created the visible world in all its richness, diversity, and order."3 Teachings about God creating the universe are repeated in many other places, and in many other contexts, in this newest of the Catechisms. There is no doubt about what the Catholic Church teaches about the beginnings of this world: God created the Heavens and the Earth!4

  • "God created heaven and earth" is the clear teaching of the Roman Catholic Church.
  • I could find no listing for the subject of "Evolution" in this Catechism. Pope John Paul II cannot have it both ways. The dictionary defines evolution as "a gradual process in which something changes into a significantly different and usually more complex or more sophisticated form". And, it defines the word, evolve, "to develop gradually ... to develop by evolutionary process."6 The theory of Evolution is Godless, has been Godless from the beginning, and will always be Godless! It is pure, unadulterated blasphemy for Pope John Paul II to declare that evolution is compatible with the Christian faith!!

  • 2) The second concept to be grasped from the Pope's statement concerns what he asserted about man's soul. Let us review what he said about man's soul. 'If the human body has its origin in living material which pre-exists it, the spiritual soul is immediately created by God', the Pope said."
  • Now, when you think about this statement, in context with the Pope's assertion that Evolution is compatible with Christian teaching, you create a ridiculous scenario. Think of it: God, in Heaven, seeing the progress of Evolution on Earth, seeing that man has slowly, over billions of years, evolved from primordial slime, through several stages, to an intelligent man, suddenly decides that He needs to intervene to create an immortal soul and implant it within each man!! If God can create everything out of nothing7 then He created the primordial slime, and He created man's immortal soul!! Where was God in the middle? Was He on vacation for 4.5 billion years, as man slowly emerged, through many interim stages, to finally become man?

    While this is logically ludicrous, the Catechism may come close to teaching it. On page 87, paragraph, 337, it teaches that "Scripture presents the work of the Creator symbolically as a succession of six days of divine 'work', concluded by the 'rest' of the seventh day." In other words the Catechism does not teach that God created the world in 6 days, saying His creation was "symbolically" presented as having taken place in 6 days of work. This teaching leaves the door open for Evolution. This slightly opened door to Evolution is probably the door through which John Paul II is walking when he states that Evolution is compatible with the Christian faith, at least with the "faith" as espoused by the Roman Catholic Church. Still, John Paul II cannot reconcile the Godless nature of Evolution as compared with the teaching that God created the world.

    So, what is going on here? How can the Ultimate Authority in the Roman Catholic Church, the Vicar of Christ, who is infallible in this office, publicly pronounce something that is totally at odds with the clear teaching of the latest, most authoritative Catechism? Not to mention the Bible!!

    The answer will shock you, particularly if you are a faithful Roman Catholic. This statement by Pope John Paul II did not occur in a vacuum, nor is it an isolated event. The key to understanding what the Pope is doing, is the word, "convergence" in his statement. While the Pope is speaking of a "convergence" of various "scientific" studies which point to Evolution, what is really "converging" is the Plan to achieve the New World Order. The world is rushing to the final completion of the New World Order Plan, which calls for a One-World Government and Economy, headed by The Christ, plus, a One-World Religion, headed by the Pope. Please carefully read the Plan concerning the New World Order Religion, to be headed by the Roman Catholic Pope, as printed below: This part of the New World Order Plan is called, "The New Jerusalem Covenant Project". [See Footnote #8 for the source of this information]

    "Sometime between 1985-2010, the following scenario will unfold, depending only on the right set of circumstances:

    This celebration of these three combined Festivals will create the New World Order Religion and will be the spiritual equivalent to the political United Nations."

    "When the religious communities of the world are thus merged, political governments are to simultaneously hold the following political/business conferences:

    Thus, when the three religious conferences and the three political/business conferences are simultaneously held, a grand merger of all forces will occur worldwide that will move the world in any desired direction." [Note: Read New World Order]

    "Then, and only then, will it be possible to build a combination Temple/Church/Mosque in Jerusalem."

    Bill further stated that "any purely political settlement in the Middle East would not, by itself, bring peace. In other words, a purely political settlement would leave the religious nature of the problem unsolved."

    "Any permanent solution to the Middle East conflict would also have to see the religious portion of the problem solved. Once this religious problem is solved, then the power and influence of the Orthodox Jews in Israel would permanently decline."

    "The impetus toward this type of settlement is made possible only because of a general fear of war. This fear of war must be maintained until the desired political and religious changes have been instituted."

    "At the proper moment in history, the Pope will visit the combined Jewish/Christian/Moslem sector of Jerusalem to announce that all religions should be combined into one."8

    There are many facts which you will glean from this shocking plan, after you study them carefully, but I wish to focus on the role of the Roman Catholic Pope. Sometime after The Christ arises, a major conference will be held in Jerusalem. On the one hand, you will have a conference comprised of political and business leaders. While Lambert did not specify who would be chairing this conference, the unmistakable conclusion was that it would be The Christ.

    On the other hand, you will have another conference, separate from, but held simultaneously, to the first. This major conference will be spiritual, and will be chaired by the Pope! Please note that this global spiritual conference will be comprised of the three major religious groups in the world today:

    Thus, the three major religious components in the world are represented at this conference. The chairman, the leader, of this New World Order religious conference, will be the Pope. He will declare that, henceforth, all the world's religions are One!! And, the name of this new, amalgamated religion will be "New World Order Religion". The Roman Catholic Pontiff will be its leader. At this point, the long-standing goal of the Roman Catholic Church, and of Pope John Paul II specifically, will be realized. For the first time since the advent of Martin Luther, and the Protestant reformation, the Roman Catholic Church will again be supreme in matters of religion. But, now, his supremacy will be complete, for it will be global for the first and only time in world history.

    The retired Vatican Seminary Professor, Malachi Martin, writing in his revealing book, "The Keys to This Blood", brags about the enlightened spiritual leadership of the New World Order Plan being provided by Pope John Paul II. This Pope, says Martin, has been promised by the Virgin Mary that he will be the reigning spiritual leader of the New World Order Religion. But, says Martin, the Virgin has promised John Paul II that, in due time, she will produce a global Marion Vision which will lead directly and quickly to the Pope taking control of all the elements of the New World Order, including the Political and Economic leadership, as well!!

    So, the world must be getting very, very close to The Christ appearing, for John Paul II to make this startling pronouncement about Evolution being compatible with Christian faith. Because, in the three major religious groups mentioned, above, only the Christian teaches that God created the world and remains apart from it. The Eastern Religions teach that, when God created the world, He diffused Himself into all aspects of it, so that He stopped being a separate entity. Rather, now god is found in rocks, trees, and all parts of Nature. He is present also in the animals and in man. Mankind possesses the godhead within each person; all each person has to do is to undertake the journey to discover the "godhead within him/her". The New Age Movement merges teachings about Evolution, with some of the elements of the Eastern Religions, described above. But, in all cases, God the Creator, Who remains distinct from His creation, Who remains the Creator and the final Judge of all mankind, is totally removed from the equation. The only groups in the world standing in the way of this Godless world religion are the Mohammedans, the Jews, and the Christian, all of whom believe in One God, Creator. The Mohammedans and the Jews are targeted for total extinction. The Christian religion, on the other hand, is not targeted from total extinction, just the Fundamentalist portion! You see, beginning at the Turn of this Century, New World Order leaders foresaw that the more Liberal, Mainstream Christian groups would turn in the direction of the New World Order Plan. But, the Fundamentalist group would not, so they would have to be extinguished.

    Now, back to the Pope's pronouncement: Since Pope John Paul II, or his successor, is planned to assume the mantle of Absolute Pontiff over the global New World Order Religion, his pronouncement on Evolution makes perfect sense. In one swoop, he has officially moved the Roman Catholic Church-and all churches who are participating with the Catholic Church in the Ecumenical Movement-into a position of advocating the new Godless New World Order philosophy! For those of you who doubt that your Protestant church, who is participating with the Church of Rome in the Ecumenical Movement, will ever embrace this view, listen to the quick response of a Liberal Protestant theologian to the Pope's remarks. "'Most mainstream Christian denominations take similar positions on evolution, said Martin E. Marty, who teaches the history of modern Christianity at the University of Chicago. 'The Bible can't be comprehended as a textbook on how the world and human life began', he said. 'I think you have to look at the world in more than one way. The important thing for all theists is that humans are related to nature. That's why I think this (statement) has a lot more weight to it: You can keep the distinctiveness of the human as the image of God, and still see the human as part of this billions-yearlong process.'"9 Do not be deceived. The vast majority of Liberal Protestant Churches who are working with Rome in the Ecumenical Movement will not oppose this statement on Evolution. Or, at the very least, they will make the empty gesture of protesting this teaching, but when the Pope rejects their protest, they will still continue to cooperate with Rome in the Ecumenical Movement.

    At this point, the Pope can become the supreme religious ruler of the New World Order Religion. This places him in the Biblical position of the False Prophet, and his Roman Catholic Church as the False Church of Revelation 13:11-18!! Let us closely examine verse 11, for it tells us all we need to know to recognize this situation for what it is. "And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth ..." The Antichrist had been identified in 13:1 as a Beast rising out of the "sea", which is representative of the many nations. But, this second Beast was seen rising out of the earth, which is representative of Israel!! Then, our understanding becomes complete, in the next phrase of verse 11, "and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon." This second Beast is a religious leader that looks and acts like a Christian (having two horns like a Christian, and coming out of Israel, as did our Lord Jesus)! He claims to be Christian, and the peoples of the world definitely see him as Christian. But, inside, he has the heart of Satan!!

    Without doubt, this is the Roman Catholic Pope!! World events are confirming it! Now, I have already received much anguished mail from faithful Roman Catholics on this issue. Some of them has said that, yes, they understand that in the Last Days-the days of Antichrist-a false Pope will arise, whom they call the "Anti-Pope". But, they say, Pope John Paul II is not that Anti-Pope; he is a Holy, Traditional Pope!! I am going to PROVE that is not the case, and that, if Antichrist were to arise today, Pope John Paul II is perfectly prepared to be that Anti-Pope.

    Let us go back to the Plan as espoused so eloquently by Bill Lambert, New England Director of the House of Theosophy, and a member of the committee which planned, and wrote the New Jerusalem Covenant Project. Bill is speaking now, in his seminar, about the sudden snatching away of millions of people, after The Christ has arisen, people who could "never accept the claims of The Christ."

    "At this point, I raised my hand to ask Mr. Lambert, 'You spoke earlier about the Pope going to Jerusalem; when Lord Maitreya makes his appearance, there will be three types of people:

    1. Those whose consciousness has been properly raised so they can readily accept him. You described these people as being "proper receptors to The Christ";
    2. Those whose consciousness has been raised somewhat but not so high that they can readily and immediately accept him, but they might be able to accept him after further enlightenment;
    3. Those who will NEVER accept him.

    What responsibility do the leaders of the world's religions have toward those members of their flock who are of group number two? Will they step forward to publicly urge group number two people to accept the Christ?'

    Bill's answer was that the acceptance of the Christ was completely an individual affair.

    "I said, 'Back to the Pope for a moment, Bill. You stated that, at the right moment, the Pope would go to Jerusalem. Surely the Pope is a proper receptor to the Christ.'

    At this point, Bill nodded his head affirmatively that the Pope was a proper receptor to the Christ. This is the most direct acknowledgment by a influential person involved in the planning for the appearance of Christ that the current Pope is ready and waiting for the appearance of The Christ. This acknowledgment also may point to the current Pope as the False Prophet, because Bill stated very pointedly that the preparation for the New World Order religion was being paved by the Ecumenical Movement, being spearheaded by the Pope."10

    This current Pope, John Paul II, is a "proper receptor to The Christ"! This is not a Fundamental Christian speaking here; this is a deeply occultic New World Order leader, who is possessed by his 'Guiding Spirit'. This statement absolutely confirms that the Roman Catholic Pope is the Second Beast of Revelation 13, that he is of the same heart and mind as the First Beast, and that he will fulfill all the Biblical prophecies assigned him in the book of Revelation.

    4 Of course, in John 1:3, the Apostle John, speaking through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, states that all things were made through Jesus Christ and that nothing that was made, was made without Him. the Catechism comes close to saying this, in paragraph 668, p. 174, but clouds the issue by saying that Jesus participated "in his humanity, in God's power and authority." What this paragraph seems to teach is that, after God created all things, He gave Jesus Christ the authority over all things. This is not saying the same thing as John 1:3, which states that God the Father and God, Jesus Christ the son, co-created the universe. In fact, in paragraph 287, we read the teaching, "he is the One who alone 'made heaven and earth' "! This teaching, that God the Father alone created the universe, seems more closely Freemasonry teaching than Christian. Freemasons talk and talk and talk about God, but almost never about Jesus Christ. To them, God the Father is the only subject worth talking about. Of course, we read, in Pike's "Morals and Dogma", that Jesus is a created being, and of an inferior line, at that!
