Opportunistic Vatican On The Move Again
The Vatican's Jesuits rarely pass up an opportunity to ride the crest of a global wave. In his newest encyclical, Laudato Si (“Be praised”) Jesuit Pope Francis seeks to place the pope as point man in the crusade to halt global warming.
Even though the science community is greatly divided on the cause, Francis sees a “very solid scientific consensus” that the earth is warming and risks disaster before the end of the century. And of course, he places the blame squarely on human activity plundering the earth “for

Missionary Says Tracts are aGame Changer
More and more missionaries are finding Chick gospel tracts to be essential tools for saturating communities with the gospel, often leading to starting of new churches. Here are a few reports:
David Robinson —Malawi “Thank you and want to let you all
know that the day we were pulling out of town around 22,000 of the tracts came in. Now this is the second week and we have distributed 14,000 so far. These tracts are literally a game changer for us. It is true that these people here are poor and will receive any quality of tract. However, people see the quality and the message inside and the verses and boy are they thankful to get them.

Homosexual Militants EyingOur Basic Freedoms
AND ITWAS GOOD!
Homosexual activists have succeeded in nailing down same-sex marriage as the law of the land. But this was not their ultimate goal, just the next item on their agenda. So, what is next? Full acceptance of their unbiblical behavior.
Claiming "born that way," they are charging ahead against anyone who objects to their "orientation." The affirmation of their "identity" by the U.S. Supreme Court further removes the discussion away from God's truth that it is a chosen behavior.
Therefore, if this is "who they are," rather than "what they do," they can label anyone who objects to their sin as a direct attack on their person. Thus, they adopt the role of victim and plead discrimination.
It took America a couple hundred years to address the evil of slavery using antidiscrimination laws in correcting this injustice. It became obvious to most people that skin color did not indicate sub-human status. Discrimination based on skin color was obviously wrong, since the owner was truly "born that way."
The homosexual spirit saw an opportunity to piggy-back on the racial discrimination laws to further their agenda. If same-sex attraction could be sold as "born that way" just like skin color, the force of law could be brought down on their side, gaining legal approval for their behavior.
And the Supreme Court just validated their claim by "discovering" the right to same-sex marriage in our Constitution. Having gained the backing of the government, whose job it is to suppress evil, good becomes evil. Anyone raising an objection to this sin becomes a criminal and will be quickly swatted down by the full force of the law.
We already see hints of where it will go. When bakers Melissa and Aaron Klein objected to preparing a wedding cake for a same-sex couple, they ended up with a fine of $135,000 and a gag order.
When farmers Cynthia and Robert Gifford, who hosted wedding parties on their farm, refused to allow a same-sex ceremo
ny, their fine was $13,000 and an order to attend re-education classes. This is just two of a dozen or so recent cases that illustrate the militancy of the homosexual agenda, using the new power of anti-discrimination law.
Since Bible believers are about the only ones left to object to this abomination, the bull's eye is squarely on their back. The battle is engaged and the outcome is far from certain.
Recent developments in Houston, Texas may be instructive. When the lesbian mayor signed a bill that would allow "transgendered" men to use women's restrooms and dressing rooms, local pastors led a petition drive to repeal the law but petition names were illegally declared invalid. Now a judge just decreed that the issue can be placed before the people in a general election. This is proof that, if enough good people stand up, the attack on our freedoms can be blunted.
Bible believers have ignored the great commission until the pagans have taken over the key centers of influence: the universities, schools and government bureaus. As a result, the playful puppies of sin that we once considered amusing, are now a pack of demon-driven wolves with their eye on our throats.
We must do more than stand up for biblical marriage. We must point out the disastrous results of the sexual revolution, and clearly articulate God’s plan for a lifestyle of loving God whole heartedly and our neighbor as well. No-nonsense gospel tracts, when widely circulated, have called previous generations back to humble obedience. We need to do it again.
Chick Publications has dozens of tracts, including a recent one, And It Was Good!, which presents a gentle message about God’s plan for marriage. These engaging stories have proven to be effective great-commission tools.

Abortion’s New Level of Evil Opens Witnessing Opportunity
The current shock over the sale of aborted baby parts is just another sordid revelation of abortion's evil. And it is not exactly new news. Fifteen years ago, a similar story surfaced but failed to stop this slaughter of the innocents. The article is referenced in a Chick tract published in 2000 called Who Murdered Clarice? At the time, it was passed off as an isolated incident and the evil continued.
Fortunately this time, the secret videos reveal high-level administrators in Planned Parenthood's abortion field admitting to abortion procedures carefully executed to preserve certain organs in the murdered baby. Intact livers seemed to be in particular demand.
As with most crimes, what to do with the evidence? Have you ever wondered what happened to those aborted babies after they were torn apart? Maybe we assumed it was simply disposed of as “medical waste” like amputated limbs or excised cancers.
But “medical research” had a “better” solution: After the videos, Planned Parenthood claims that it was only furthering science by supplying “tissue” for research. The administrator’s cavalier attitude in the first video earned her a reprimand, but Planned Parenthood insisted that the “tissue” was actually being legally donated for research. Any money paid was only for delivery expenses. Another case of the end justifying the means: Robbing a bank may be okay, if you donate the money to charity.
So, how did we get here to over 55 million dead babies? Biblically, abortion is a parallel of Israel’s fiery sacrifice of children to the god, Molech. When Israel left worshipping Jehovah and joined the
WHOMURDERED
CLARICE?
local idol worship, many sacrifices were demanded to appease them. The devils behind those idols were true minions of Lucifer, demanding the ultimate sacrifice —death. And the little ones are the most vulnerable.
When godless humanism began creeping into our culture, it opened the door to the sexual revolution. With God out of the picture, man becomes the pinnacle, and whatever pleases him becomes
legitimate. Worship of personal pleasure becomes the ultimate and no unwanted blob of tissue can stand in the way. We chose death instead of the abundant life Christ intended.
This worship of sexual pleasure led to the breakdown of the family, leaving the poor, unborn little one without much of a chance. Easy divorce cast aside the concern for the children, and now, same-sex perversion further places them in jeopardy.
Unfortunately, the country is looking to the government to put a stop to this holocaust, but passing laws against abortion will not bring back the loving concern of a godly family. Only wide spread repentance and restoring the biblical pattern of marriage will work.
Who Murdered Clarice? is a powerful reminder of the pain in the heart of Jesus for the innocent blood we are shedding. It also shows His indignation on judgment day. But best of all, it points the way to repentance and restoration for anyone who will seek His forgiveness.
While the nation is in shock over this revelation of the ghoulish use of the parts of these dismembered babies, now is the time to saturate your community with the biblical truth in this tract.

For several years, reports have filtered out of the Middle East of thousands, or even millions of Muslims converting to Christ. Accurate numbers are hard to come by because of the persecution and death threats against anyone who leaves Islam. Family members carry the primary responsibility to discipline, or even execute, anyone who dis-respects Allah or his Prophet, Muhammad.
Recently, however, there seems to be another situation developing that soul winners should be alerted to. First of all, the rise of the radical Islamist Jihadist movement, ISIS, has sent shock waves through the Muslim world. Many "moder-ate" Muslims have been uncomfortable with Islam's attack on America and other Western countries, but knew of no reason in their holy book, the Qur'an, to seri-ously object because it seemed to declare violence to anyone who refuses to accept Allah.
But now, much of their violence is being directed to fellow Muslims. Tens of millions of people have been driven into refugee camps by the fighting. Add to that the gruesome videos of brutal beheadings of "heritics" so brazenly flashed to the world by social media.
Many "moderate" Muslims are begin-ning to say to themselves: "Is this the Islam that I belong to?" Millions have moved to the West and are tasting freedom or have become aware of its existence through
modern technology.But when they
search for alternatives in the West, all they see is the decadence, fractured families, and godlessness, of the "secular" society. Even when they look at the so-called "Christian" option, the history of the Vatican's Crusades against the
Shocked Muslims a New Witnessing Opportunity
Muslim "infidels" gets in the way. No one is likely to be around to explain that the Pope is Christian in name only, head of Satan's clever counterfeit "church."
Up until a few decades ago, the Muslim Imams coun-seled their members to avoid immigrating to the U.S. for fear they would be led to the truth in Christ. Today, so little true evangelism occurs that they no longer worry. Our government is even bringing in tens of thousands of Muslim refugees.
So, what will we do with these lost, confused "children" of Allah? Again, it is a
mission field that has come to us, saving us the trouble of going to them!
Chick Publications has a number of tracts specifical-ly designed to reach Muslims.
They can be reviewed at www.chick.com/information/religions/islam/ Popular ones include Allah had no Son, Is Allah Like You? and Your Best Life which is a rework of This Was Your Life to fit the Arab culture.
For those who do not feel confident in understanding Islam, two paperbacks are available, Christ, Muhammad and I, and Anatomy of the Qur’an. A how-to book, When the Mosque Comes to Town, is a practical guide to witnessing to a Muslim neighbor or friend, detailing how to avoid offending them and deal with subjects that are likely to come up.
The task may seem huge, but souls are still won one at a time. Just be aware that that new Muslim neighbor, coworker, or casual contact at the grocery store is likely to be confused enough by current events in his world to be open to the better way that Christ offers. You can be the one person he meets who dares point him to the God of love that he has been looking for.

Scientists recently examining fossils are baffled by several discoveries that don't fit their evolutionary assumptions of a billion-year-old earth. With the new tools such as the electron microscope and DNA analysis, soft tissue and blood cells are showing up inside fossilized bones believed to be 40+ million years old.
They freely admit that this is next to im-possible for blood cells to fossilize without decaying. To cap it off, a fossilized mos-quito was recently discovered in a shale formation in Montana. The mosquito was
still engorged with fossilized blood from its last victim.
According to evo-lution's theory, the mosquito would have had to fall in a pond, sink to the bottom and be slowly cov-ered with silt until the million-year process of fossilization could
take place. They admit that blood cells could not possibly remain intact through those eons of time. But, instead of considering the possibility that it could have happened on a Biblical time frame, they choose to just scratch their heads in bewilderment, hoping "science" will eventually come up with an explanation.
To Bible believers, the answer is obvi-ous: It is actually a young earth where the cataclysm of the world-wide flood sudden-ly buried God's original verdant creation quickly fossilizing plants and animals with the pressure of the upheaval.
Creationists quickly pointed out that evolutionary dating is flawed by circular reasoning. The mosquito was found in a shale formation that evolutionists claim to be around 40 million years old. And how do they know that? They assume that the sedi-

Four Words That Open the Doorway to Satanism By David W. Daniels
When I was a teenager, I was sucked into the occult by a simple phrase that unlocked the doorway to the occult. Oh, and I recently found it —in a commonly used Bible!
Want to know what it was? And what it had to do with this picture?
In high school, a friend of my dad’s gave me a book by Hermes Trismegistus. In it I learned a single phrase that is the basis of hermetic science (magic or occultism). It unlocked the doorway to the occult:
“As above, so below.” First, like the hands
on the Baphomet image,
Then, since good and evil are simply opposites, that means ONE IS NOT BETTER THAN ANOTHER. They are all the same. “There IS no bad. There is just what works for you and what doesn’t work for you.”
Sound familiar? Baphomet actually
represents what they call the path of enlightenment. And if you are one of “the elect,” then you will be let in on more secrets. At the highest levels, they tell you that Lucifer, who offered knowledge in Eden, was actually the good guy. That would make God Himself the bad guy. Such evil!
See, the Baphomet is not a real creature. It
Notice the adoring children!
it means that things on earth (below) come from or are affected by things above. That’s astrology, among other things.
Second, you are taught that it has to do with gaining power, “re-

down to indicate "so below."
is really a bunch of occultic symbols showing the path to enlightenment, overcoming the light-bearer, Lucifer, to get power: to change metal into gold, or man into a god.
alizing your true potential.” At that point, you might get spirit guides to help. But how do you know if they’re good or evil? It’s easy. If some being says it will teach you secrets to give you power —it’s evil. God doesn’t do things that way.
But I didn’t know that. So, I got spirit guides. But seeking power led to new religious beliefs.
Opposites, like black and white, above and below, masculine and feminine, good and bad, took on new meanings. They say, “You cannot have one without the other.” That means you cannot have evil without good, or good without evil.
Today Satanists and popular culture show
Baphomet all over the place. Google “Baphomet clothing” and you get over 200,000 hits.
How do people on that path let others know they’re on that path? They use code words, like:
“As above, so below.” God condemns this upside-down thinking. Isaiah 5:20-21: “Woe unto them that call
evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto

profit” at the expense of the poor and coming generations.
Apparently, Frances has decided to use his bully pulpit to give the world leaders a shove down the road toward one-world government, and, of course, a one-world religion. And his choice of climate change gives him a common theme to focus everyone’s attention. If he can convince the world’s political and religious leaders to join together against climate change, that becomes a platform to work toward global political and religious unity.
This is just another proof that the Vatican is, indeed, the Great Whore of Revelation 17. Since birthed by Constantine, this religious monstrosity has nosed out every opportunity to seduce the kings of the earth into her diabolical bedchamber.
If ex-Jesuit Alberto Rivera were still alive he would surely see Francis’s maneuver as just the latest in the Vatican’s long history of spiritual and political subterfuge.
In the Alberto series of Crusader comics, Rivera details how the first popes picked up the political momentum of the Caesars in establishing the pontificate in Rome. For a thousand years, kings bowed to their power as they climbed to sit “upon many waters (peoples)” (Rev. 17:1, 15).
Rivera describes briefings that he received in the Vatican where he was told how the Vatican started political and religious movements to further their power.
One early movement was Islam, started by Vatican operatives to subvert the Arab nations to the pope. Things didn't go as planned, but Satan took it over with more than a billion now in Islam’s bondage.
When explorers began to traverse the globe, Jesuits

rode along, seducing national and tribal leaders in the Americas and throughout Asia. Their plots to bring all under the power of the pope got them thrown out of dozens of countries.
When the Reformation came along, Rome’s Inquisition left millions dead in the space of several hundred years. The goal was to prevent the common man from reading the Bible for himself. Time and again, God, Himself, stepped in to defend His word and those who fought for it. God’s obliteration of the Spanish Armada is a case in point, along with the foiled Gunpowder Plot.
In more modern times, Rivera describes how Jesuits worked behind the scenes in supporting the efforts of Lenin in Russia and Hitler in Europe. Like Islam, these movements also turned out to be rebel daughters of the Whore of Babylon.
After World War II, Vatican leaders did a rethink. Violent persecution of God’s people had proved futile. So, the tiger slowly began to turn pussy cat. During and after the Vatican Ecumenical Council II (1962-65) a new public face appeared, smiling at the former “heretics,” embracing them now, as “separated brethren.”*
It is now history how the “Evangelical” leaders have been seduced to believe that the pope is truly a Christian and his perverted Bible is a reliable word of God.
The Jesuit pope is a good apostle of the Father of Lies, seeing a new opportunity to ride the ecology deception to power. But these things “must needs come to pass,” before the Man of Sin is revealed.
As Bible believers, it is our task to remain faithful to our Commission: to go make disciples. For centuries, no-nonsense gospel tracts have proven effective in reaching those who have ears to hear.

ment that made the shale was deposited bit by bit over time with no sudden changes in the environment.
So how do they date the shale? By look-ing at the fossils in the shale that they have dated from a fictional geological column. And how are the fossils dated? By their po-sition in the shale.
This circular reasoning is the best the evolutionist can come up in his attempt to leave God out of the process. God keeps pealing back the layers of their false as-sumptions, exposing them to the truth in case some will have an honest heart and consider the possibility of a Creator.
If challenged, the evo-lutionist will shoot down the messenger, rather than consider that their theory could be wrong. God won't force the issue. He maintains a careful balance of evidence that allows man to freely choose to acknowledge or deny their Creator. But, for those with ears to hear, he sneaks in ad-equate evidence to believe the truth if they truly desire it.
Soul winners need to continually raise the issue of Creation. God said He would send strong delusion to those who reject the truth. Evolution surely qualifies as a strong delusion but we must expose that lie so those whose hearts are still open to truth will understand the issue. The Chick tract Big Daddy?, can be used to saturate your community and raise questions about evo-
lution. Then, the infor-mation in the paper-backs, The Evolution Handbook and Van-ishing Proofs of Evo-lution can be used to explode the myth and guide people to under-standing that there is a Creator and what our responsibility is to re-spond to His love.

Oh, and that oth-er Bible I told you about? It’s Eugene Peterson’s “The Mes-sage.” Look at his “Lord’s Prayer” in Matthew 6. It chang-es “Hallowed be thy name” to “Reveal who you are.” Why? Is God hiding?

Black and white are NOT two sides of the same force. God and whatever God wants, is good. Disobeying God is evil, plain and simple.

AA MMESSAGEESSAGE MORFFROM JJAC KCIHHICK...ACKK CC ... Dear Ones in Christ:
There’s a chorus of pastors and youth leaders who have put down the use of gospel tracts. They push “Friendship Evangelism” in its place. Did you see the crowd of sinners rushing forward to be saved and worship God in the nearest Christian church? Neither did I. I see a hand in all of this, but it’s not the hand of God.
Do Chick tracts bring results? Last night I talked to Dann Slator. This old guy is 91. He has been a chaplain for 38 years in the prison systems. He shared this story with me:
While in a prison, he walked by an empty cell. He took two tracts, reached through the bars and threw one on the top bunk and one on the lower one. He asked God to bless them and walked on. The following day he walked by the same cell. Two prisoners stopped him and asked, “Are you the guy that put those little books in our cell?” Dann replied, “Yes.” And they told him, “Each one of us read the booklet on our bunk. Then we shared them with each other. Then we reread the original ones, and both of us got saved. Thank you for the little books you gave us.”
Today I got a long-distance call from Bill Eubanks in Zimbabwe, Africa, telling of the results from the thousands of tracts we sent him. He said, “Jack, today in a public school, all the children were given tracts and a gospel message. 150 bowed their heads and gave their hearts to Jesus. Each child promised to take the tracts home and let their parents read them. In this last week, we put out over 1,000 tracts, giving them to people working in the fields, and throwing them out to people on the roads. They all grabbed them like they were $20 bills.”
So let me ask you, which is better: friendship evangelism or tract evangelism? When you go to heaven, you will see all the people you helped to lead to salvation by the tracts and your testimony that you gave to others. Don’t let deceptive hopes for “friendship evangelism” leave you unrewarded.
Your brother in Christ,
