"abylon and the #hurch $oday
We have seen the sore displeasure of the Lord when Israel began to
mix the Babylonish religion of the Gentiles with the worship of the
One true God. The Gentile nations were formed at Babel when they
turned from their Creator and began to worship the reation. !ow
often !e implored Israel not to intermingle with them" nor to imitate
their ways" but they refused to hear#en. $fter many years of
longsuffering" the Lord finally removed his hedge of protetion from
Israel and their enemies ame and destroyed their ity and slew its
inhabitants" and those who esaped the edge of the sword were led
away into aptivity.
God is the same yesterday" today and forever. !e hanges not" and
ommands the same holiness among !is people today %& 'eter &(&)*
&+,. $s !e admonished Israel in the past" !e admonishes the hurh
today saying" -Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers:
for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and
what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath
Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an
infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for
ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said ! will dwell in
them and walk in them; and ! will be their God and they shall be
my people" #herefore come out from among them and be ye
separate saith the $ord and touch not the unclean thing; and ! will
receive you And will be a %ather unto you and ye shall be my sons

In the early years of the hurh" when the gospel first began to be
preahed among the Gentiles" many of them -turned to God from
idols to serve the living and true God& %& Thessalonians &(1,.
!owever" there was still onern that some would relapse again into

The veneration of images" idols and other religious relis is a
heathen ustom learly forbidden in the Word of God" and learly
outlined in the first two of the Ten Commandments %8xodus .2(/*+,.
9or three enturies after Christ asended into heaven" the early
Churh hose martyrdom rather than partiipate in any form of
idolatry. !owever" when Christianity beame the state religion under
Constantine" the hurh began to ompromise The 9aith" and the
same abominations that infeted Israel slowly began to infiltrate the
ommunion of the hurh.
There is an old saying" -as goes Israel" so goes the hurh:"
nevertheless" the ways of the heathen were to be purged li#e leaven
from a loaf of bread. Israel was told to destroy their idols and their
altars and their temples %;umbers 77()." <euteronomy =(&*+,"
however" with the legali>ation of Christianity" heathen temples
beame -Christian: athedrals" eremonies were purified by the
inantation of the priests" and the idols of paganism began to be
venerated under the guise of the saints. In a word"
-'aganism survived...by an often indulgent Churh. $n

-BGod is a 4pirit" and they who worship !im must worship
!im in spirit and truth.B ?an also is a spirit" and" as suh" is
in the hands of a God not to be propitiated by manBs sarifie

disturbed by the $nimism" in effet" and by the sarifie and
ritual of the ?ediaeval Churh. Too eager Bto be all things to
all men"B the august and benefient ?other of Christendom
readmitted the earlier $nimism in new forms of saint*

Little had hanged among the Gentiles but the names of the gods
they worshiped. 'eter and 'aul displaed 5omulus and 5emus as the
new founding fathers of 5ome. Instead of the twelve gods of anient
5ome" there were the ults of the twelve apostles" whose relis ould
ure diseases" ontrol the weather" and inflit harm on those who
opposed them. Instead of the ult of <iana" Cueen of !eaven" there
was the ult of ?ary" Cueen of !eaven. Instead of the gods Isis and
!orus" the idols of the ?adonna with hild ould now be venerated
as ?ary and the baby 3esus.
We must remember that idolatry was an extension of astrology and
one of the ustoms of the Gentile nations was to ma#e idols of -the
signs of heaven& %3eremiah &2(.*)" &/,. 'agan idols were originally
the personifiations of the host of heaven" or as 4tephen would say"
-figures which ye made to worship them& %$ts =(/.*/7,.
The -mother and hild: ult is one example of idolatry that
originated ba# at Babel. This image was first fashion in the

?adonna with Child was worshipped as 4emiramis and Tammu>.
-9rom Babylon" this worship of the ?other and Child spread to the
ends of the earth. In 8gypt" the ?other and the Child were
worshipped under the names of Isis and Osiris D!orusE. In India"
even to this day" as Isi and IswaraA in $sia" as Cybele and <eoiusA in

When ;apoleon Bonaparte onFuered 8gypt" he sent his servants to
do a thorough study of the Great 'yramid and several of the temples.
One extremely interesting item was a detailed map of the heavens
from the Temple of !athor at <enderah" showing the onstellations
as they were aniently. ;apoleon had his artists arefully opy all of
the figures in detail" resulting in several huge volumes of drawings.

stated" -The Godia in the Temple of <enderah" in 8gypt" going ba#

deities of the sun" moon" planets and the stars. Within that olletion
were idols that bore a remar#able resemblane to the -?adonna and
Child: shown above. These are lear representations of the anient
religion of Babel that spread throughout the whole earth orrupting
the nations. Knfortunately" in the third and fourth enturies"
Christianity adopted this same pagan religion" @ust li#e Israel.

Gordon 3. Laing testifies that the founders of the Catholi Churh*
4tate"
-were #eenly interested in winning the pagans to the faith"
and they sueeded. But undoubtedly one element in their
suess was the inlusion in their system of the dotrine of
the veneration of 4aints. They seem to have felt that in order
to ma#e any headway at all" it was neessary for them to
math the swarms of spirits available for the pagans with a
multitude of wonder*wor#ing 4aints and ?artyrs. !ow far
they were prepared to go is indiated by their favorable
attitude toward the pagan veneration of Lirgil that amounted
almost to deifiationH. The 4aints sueeded to the worship
of the dead @ust as they had sueeded to the ult of the
departmental deities and to the little gods of the 5oman
householdH. 5eports of mirales wrought by human beings
were ommon among the anient 5omans and were aepted
by the great mass of people without FuestionH. The
D5omanE Christians adapted themselves to the pagan attitude.
They mathed the mirale*wor#ers of the pagans with the
wonder*wor#ing 4aintsA and with their suess the number of
mirales inreased. The santity of relis" well established as
it has been among the pagans" aFuired far greater vogue in
DmedievalE Christian times and was given a degree of
emphasis that it had never had beforeH. Li#e the deified
heroes and emperors of pagan times" the 4aints were honored
with altars" sared edifies" inense" lights" hymns" e-.voto
offerings" festivals with illuminations and high hilarity"
prayers" and invoations. They beame intermediate
divinitiesH.: %Gordon 3. Laing" *urvivals of /oman

!ow often the hurh was admonished to wath and be sober.
Giving idols names of saints under the pretense of piety ould never
please the Lord. -! am the $0/1: that is my name: and my glory
will ! not give to another neither my praise to graven images&
%Isaiah /.(0,. But somewhere along the way they forgot 'aulBs
admonition to - turn from these vanities unto the living God
which made heaven and earth and the sea and all things that are
therein& %$ts &/(&)," and the Churh fell into a deep slumber
plunging humanity into the -<ar# $ges:. This ould not be more
evident without a brief review of the anient worship of the sun.
8very #indred" tribe and nation around the globe" above all their
deities" gave speial reverene to the great sun god. $mong the
8gyptians he was revered as 5a. Throughout the 5oman 8mpire the
sun was worshipped as ?ithra. In anient Greee the deities of the
sun were !elios and $pollo. The 'hMniians worshipped the sun as
Baal" and the $mmonites worshipped the sun as ?oleh or ?ilom.
$mong the anient Babylonians he was worshipped as 4hamash.
The ?ayans also worshipped the sun" and the $>tes alled him
!uit>ilopothli.

Sha&ash' "abylonian Sun god
We have seen how Israel turned to this anient form of worship
%8>e#iel 0(&+, and brought it right into the onfines of the Temple in
3erusalem. It was for this reason the glory of the LO5< departed
from the Temple and the ity %8>e#iel &2(&0" &&(.7," and their
enemies were allowed to onFuer them.
This orrupt religion was originally ultivated in the anient land of
Babel and spread out from there. ;umerous steles are found in that
region depiting this pagan deity.

The image on the wall is typial of a -monstrane: that is used in the
5oman Catholi Churh to hold a piee of bread they all the
-8uharist: or the -host:. The ba#er first fashions the bread into
little round wafers" then the 5oman priest pronounes his inantation
over the bread and wine ma#ing them -the body and blood" together
with the soul and divinity" of our Lord 3esus Christ and" therefore"
the whole Christ is truly" really" and substantially ontained:
%Catehism of the Catholi Churh" paragraph &7=/,.
8ah wafer is now believed to be 3esus Christ and the ommuniant
is enouraged to bow down and worship the image of the 8uharist.
Certainly" anyone who has eyes to see and ears to hear an reogni>e
that this is nothing more than the old Babylonish religion dressed up
in Christian garb.
In -'resottBs ?exio:" he reorded eyewitness aounts of a pagan
ritual among the $>tes that was astonishingly similar to the
-4arifie of the ?ass:. !e said"
-they witnessed a religious rite whih reminded them of
Christian ommunion. On these oasions" an image of the
tutelary deity of the $>tes was made of the flour of mai>e"
mixed with blood" and after onseration by the priests" was
distributed among the people" who" as they ate it" -showed
signs of humiliation and sorrow" delaring it was the flesh of
the dietyI: !ow ould the 5oman Catholi fail to reogni>e
the awful eremony of the 8uharist6: %'resottBs ?exio"
Lolume II" p. 701" &010,
9or some" the various -emblems of Christianity: -proved" in their
eyes" that Christianity had been preahed at some earlier date among
the natives.: $nd" -In their perplexity" they loo#ed on the whole as
the delusion of the <evil" who ounterfeited the rites of Christianity
and the traditions of the hosen people" that he might allure his
wrethed vitims to their own destrution.:%'resottBs ?exio"
Lolume II" p. 71." &010,
But what ould we say of pagan ultures before the Christian era"
who pratied similar rituals" li#e that found in the 8gyptian and
Gree# mysteries6 The $>tes ould never have opied this from the
hurh beause they never heard of Christ or !is dotrines before
the arrival of 8uropeans. Where then did they get it6 ?ore to the
point" where did the Catholi Churh get it6 9or the ritual of the
-?ass: is nowhere to be found in the Bible.
There are millions of monstranes in Catholi athedrals around the
world" and many of them are set up where the 8uharist an be
perpetually worshipped and adored. It annot be denied that they are
the lear image of the pagan sun god" worshipped by the heathen
around the world.

Monstrance
The resent moon god ;anna was sometimes pitured with the sun
god" so it is often inorporated in the design of the monstrane" @ust
li#e the one below that was blessed by 'ope 3ohn 'aul II.

The Catholi is taught that the -host: and wine beomes the flesh
and blood of Christ at his priests ommand. $t this point" the priest
elevates the -host: so the ongregation an bow down and worship
their god. Li#e the anient $>tes" they then reeive their god to eat
his flesh and drin# his blood.

9or those sinerely see#ing the truth" it does not ta#e muh
reasoning to see how the 4riptures have been twisted. 9irstly" -God
that made the world and all things therein seeing that he is $ord of
heaven and earth dwelleth not in temples made with hands ' DsoE
we ought not to think that the Godhead is ' graven by art and
man2s device& %$ts &=(./" .1,. 4imply put" God does not dwell in
anything made with the hands of men. That would inlude the
8uharist.
$t Babel" their ardinal dotrine was that they -changed the truth of
God into a lie and worshipped and served the creature more than
the Creator& %5omans &(.),. $nything made with the hands of men
is most ertainly part of GodBs reation. When man#ind fashions
anything with his hands and delares -these be thy gods& %8xodus
7.(/," they are ommitting the same sarilege that Israel did when
they worshipped the golden alve.
The Lord 3esus Christ reated the wheat" from whih bread is made"
on the third day of Creation %Genesis &(1*&7,. To fashion anything
from wheat and worship it as god brea#s the first and seond
ommandment %8xodus .2(&*=, of GodBs moral Law. Committing
suh idolatry is to fall ba# into the old Babylonish religion of
worshiping the reation rather than the Creator.
$s well" many Catholis believe that they need to go to the -?ass:

The Word of God also learly forbids believers to drin# any form of
blood %Genesis 1(/" Levitius &=(&&*&/" $ts &)(.2,. To drin# the

God @udged Israel when she refused to repent of her idolatry. What
do you suppose will be the end of the hurh in these latter days6
Knder Constantine the hurh married the world thus en@oining
paganism and Christianity. This unholy union was unspea#able in
the days of the apostles. When the Lyaonians thought to mix the
gospel with their pagan worship" 'aul and Barnabas -rent their
clothes and ran in among the people crying out And saying *irs
why do ye these things? #e also are men of like passions with you
and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the
living God which made heaven and earth and the sea and all
things that are therein& %$ts &/(&/*&),.
!owever" many throughout history" when they saw that the 4tate
Churh would not turn from their vanities" saw no other ourse than
to separate in obediene to the LordBs ommand %. Corinthians +(&/*
&0,. They began new fellowships that were subseFuently ondemned
and perseuted by that same Churh.
These hurhes were generally alled -'rotestant:" beause of their
protest against the idolatry in the Catholi Churh. !owever" under
the eumenial spirit of the age" there is no longer a protest against
the hidden things of dar#ness. In fat" if you would see# to obey the
LordBs ommand to -earnestly contend for the faith& %3ude &(7,"
today you will find yourself up against a great wall of opposition"
not against the humanists and atheists of this world" but against
-hurhgoers: from every reed.
4trangely enough" those who one thought it neessary to separate
%5omans &+(&=*.2, from the Churh of 5ome for theologial
reasons are now oming full irle" and through the eumenial spirit
of the age" are oming ba# into the 5oman fold.
$s man began to drift away from the Word of God" paganism ever so
subtly began to seep into the hurh. The only remedy was to repent
and turn ba# to the Word of God and arefully adhere to !is
ommands. But seeing that the hurh hierarhy was unwilling to
reform" many believers were left with no option but to ome out of
her lest they be parta#er of her evil deeds.
