  • Judgment Day Must Wait Jehovah’S Witnesses— a Sect Between Idealism and Deceit
    Judgment Day Must Wait Jehovah’s Witnesses— A Sect Between Idealism and Deceit By Poul Bregninge (YBK Publishers, New York, 2013) Fear of the apocalypse that never comes! That is what holds a Jehovah's Witness power-bound by the Watch Tower Society of Brooklyn. Armageddon is always just a little way around the corner. Poul Bregninge presents a complete history and ideology of the Society and the reasons why it keeps a keen focus on the Day of Judgment. He tells of multiple "days of reckoning" that pass uneventfully and how each failure of Christ to reappear is reevaluated by the Society to foretell of yet another apocalypse still to come. Judgment Day Must Wait, by Poul Bregninge The fear of that moment keeps Witnesses firmly in the fold. Judgment Day is the carrot dangled before them. Everyone knows the Jehovah's Witnesses, right? Those somber people who appear at our doors, offering literature and the everlasting salvation of our souls? What do we know about them? What we see at our door are the facades, their Society- devised disguises, directed to convert anyone willing to follow their Witness-ways of believing and living. In this book you will confront the thinking that motivates those beliefs. Poul's book provides a comprehensive view of JW history, its upheavals and struggles, and a raw demonstration of the manipulation and cruelty dealt to those it charges with expanding its membership. By keeping Judgment Day ever coming, the Watch Tower Society ensures a ready supply of workers to proclaim the ever-coming coming.

  • Armageddon/Apocalypse – Fact Or Fiction?
    ARMAGEDDON/APOCALYPSE – FACT OR FICTION? What comes to your mind when you hear the word Armageddon? Catastrophe? The world's final battle? Nuclear warfare? Most often this term elicits an emotional feeling of anxiety to outright panic. It is often linked with another popular term, Apocalypse. For many people, it focuses on the end of the world. Therefore, it is essential for us to have a clear understanding of these two terms and how they apply to our lives today. So, let me take you on an adventure of removing the misconceptions and providing some reality to these terms. We'll begin with the word "Apocalypse." THE APOCALYPSE - If you were brought up Catholic, you recognize that this term refers to the last book of the Catholic Bible, "The Apocalypse," which Protestants call "The Book of Revelation." It is the same book in both Bibles. The Greek word "apokalypsis" means "revealing" or "disclosure." The Book of Revelation is the "revelation of Jesus Christ." Figure 1 - Photo from “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what rickyohnministries.org must soon take place” (Revelation 1:1). The Father gave a revelation about the future to His Son, who gave it to an angel, who in turn gave it to John the Apostle. John then wrote that revelation and sent it to the seven churches in Asia (Revelation 1:1-3). Within this revelation, we learn that one day this world, as we know it, will come to an end. Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God, is going to return to this earth, set up His Kingdom and reign from the City where God has placed His Name.

  • Dispensationalist Christian Zionism and the Shaping of US Policy Towards Israel-Palestine
    The Armageddon Lobby: Dispensationalist Christian Zionism and the Shaping of US Policy Towards Israel-Palestine Rammy M. Haija Holy Land Studies: A Multidisciplinary Journal, Volume 5, Number 1, May 2006, pp. 75-95 (Article) Published by Edinburgh University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/199773 [ This content has been declared free to read by the pubisher during the COVID-19 pandemic. ] [HLS 5.1 (2006) 75–95] ISSN 1474-9475 THE ARMAGEDDON LOBBY: DISPENSATIONALIST CHRISTIAN ZIONISM AND THE SHAPING OF US POLICY TOWARDS ISRAEL-PALESTINE1 Rammy M. Haija Doctoral Candidate in Sociology Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Virginia Tech, 560 McBryde Hall - 0137 Blacksburg, VA 24060, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT This article investigates the history of contemporary Christian Zionism in the United States and the impact of this movement on US policy issues related to Israel-Palestine. Dispensationalist Christian Zionists, often described the ‘Armageddon lobby’, make up the largest voting bloc in the Republican Party and have become a mainstay in US politics. More recently, the Christian Zionist lobby has had a profoundly damaging impact on the Israeli-Palestinian ‘peace process’ as well as creating a conspiracy of silence regarding Israeli offensives in the occupied Palestinian territories. Though the ‘Armageddon lobby’ has been successful in its efforts as a pro-Israel lobby, its infl uence is in fact counterproductive to Israel because the lobby hinders the prospect of Israel living in peace because of their policy of deterring the progression of negotiations. 1. Introduction to Christian Zionism While the alliance between America’s Christian Zionists and the pro-Israel lobby has been in existence for decades now, more recently it has become critical to examine this dynamic relationship because of the current volatile state resulting from the current Palestinian Intifada (uprising).

  • Featured Writer... VHS Or BETA with This One," Admits Craig
    3rd Quarter • 2011 The album juxtaposes more straightforward dance floor tracks like the jittery "Watch Out" with experimental fare such as "Jellybean," a trippy excursion pitched somewhere between Pink Floyd and the dark side of Italo-disco, and partially inspired by the records they heard spun in the backroom of Tandem, a favorite bar in their new neighborhood. Indeed, themes of duality permeate the record. While the grooves of Diamonds & Death are among the bands most optimistic and propulsive to date, it is no accident that they are often paired with dark lyrics, as on the crisp, percolating single "Breaking Bones." "That's something I always loved about the Smiths," explains Craig of this artistic choice. "You had this supremely uplifting pop music, with this somber message, being told in a very interesting way, by a beautiful voice." Even the making of the record was punctuated by contrasts; as excited as the guys were by their move to New York, Craig initially found himself bested by writer's block while working on lyrics. A few songs began life in Louisville—most notably "I Found A Reason," an uplifting, piano-driven number with echoes of Inner City's 1988 classic "Good Life" and big group vocals a la Chic—but the majority of the album was written and recorded after Craig and Mark had settled into Brooklyn. Yet even as the pair crafted tunes suitable for club play, they retained their trademark pop sensibili- ties. Selections like the title tune and "All Summer in a Day" are still anchored by concise melodic hooks—even if they aren't necessarily found in the most obvious places—and fleshed out with dynamic, unpredictable arrangements.
