Nevertheless, we must endure persecution by means of active piety, not retaliation. However, one way to overcome Roman Catholicism is to become aware of its deviation from the Bible. Many people have exposed their sins--do not associate with them any more than necessary. With their increasing powerful influence upon government, it may be much more difficult for us to live in the future as many forces are in attempt to further desovereignize protestant Anglo Saxon America.

We need to recognize that at any God-honoring sacrificial cost our lives must be established upon the love of God, integrity, and principles based upon the Scripture. We need a religion (--Christ) in our lives that shuns ignorance, indifference, perversion, subversion and the bondage of sin, expressing God's love unto one another even at the cost of not being accepted by society, suffering or losing our lives. Remember the promise even as the people of faith and how some of them suffered (Heb., ch. 11).

Luther, Simons, Calvin, and the many other great Christians were not without their faults, nor did they complete the work of Christianity, but they did make an impressive witness for it. They were moved by the inspiration of God, recognized and shunned evils of their time, disregarded the jeopardy of their position and made a deliverance for themselves and others. Great masses were freed and many souls enjoyed spiritual, social and economic prosperity due to their good works. [Unfortunately, according to some written observations, Calvin may have been detrimentally prone to undermining, Talmudicist influence.] We must also make necessary and fruitful changes in our lives and continue to go on toward perfection.

We must understand and apply Christian preferential discrimination. There is a need to discern between right and wrong, good and evil in all aspects of life. Without God's love and judgment in our lives we do not have a witness for Him. A Christian must be able to make righteous judgment. God's judgment is not the world's judgment: "Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?" (James 4:4) Without the practice of God's judgment in the world or in a person's life you can expect desolation. Many of you lack God's judgment (his knowledge and will) in your lives and are in need of repentance. You are living in hypocrisy. You are not able to teach or be a godly example; therefore, repent! If you parents would bring up your children in the love of God and teach them the Scripture they would have a nourishing environment so as to acquire the dignity not to want to associate--at least if they had their preference--with lewd and deceitful people, especially those that call themselves Christians; and through love of God and faith they would have the strength not to be deceived by such. God's love, judgment, holiness, the knowledge of God and its authority is attractive to true Christians; and true Christians love true Christians. Therefore, your children would also know better than to adhere to a religion that is not based upon the authority of the Scripture.
