Transhumanism #1

Greetings, everyone! Welcome to Sabbath services. Today we're going to cover something that is extremely important. It is something that we need to have a completely new view of how prophecies are being fulfilled.

It's what's happening in the world on such a level and so intense, yet the average person knows nothing about it. I will say that perhaps 99% of church members know nothing about it.

What we're going to do, I'm going to introduce this in just a little bit different way. I'm working on a paper entitled, God's Weekly Sabbath and Annual Festivals and Holy Days and the Calculated Hebrew Calendar. Here's the principle on which everything hinges, not just the calendar, but all human beings and God.

After showing that there are difficulties that are coming, I say we need to address some fundamental questions concerning:

• everything to do with God
• everything to do with prophecy
• everything to do with our relationship with God
• everything to do with what's going on in the world

All of this goes clear back to Adam and Eve.

• Did God leave it to men to devise their own schemes in order to observe the Sabbath and Holy Days on any day they choose?
• Did God leave it to man to decide for himself what is good and what is evil?

That takes us all the way back to the Garden of Eden, which then brings us up to today.

• Or did God give definite commands to men and women to obey—His commandments, laws and statutes?

No one wants to obey God. Here is the result of all of this. If God did not give His laws and commandments and did not give men the choice to devise their own days/ways, then any scheme that men devise, or anything that men devise, He would be obligated to accept. Therefore, any day or anything that men would choose would be correct.

What we're really doing, we're getting a broad definition of lawlessness. I don't think we have understood the magnitude of the lawlessness in the world. We think of it too many times just in terms of the Law of God and Sabbath/Sunday, Holy Days/holidays. But we don't think of it terms of the totality of the behavior of human beings under the auspices of Satan the devil. So it's much broader. Consequently—so we have to carry this one step further—if this were true, or if these things were true, it would mean that men would have the power to command God to accept their humanly devised days or plans or schemes or work, even though they do it in the name of God, even though they name the days after God's days.

Example: When I was pastoring in Salt Lake City, and that's the capital of Mormonism in the world, and so I had to learn all about Mormonism. However, you've probably heard me mention this before, but I'll mention it again, because it serves a point. This also brings out several things concerning human nature:

• There's a way that seems right to a man, but the ends thereof are the ways of death.
• Every way of a man is clean in his own eyes.
• The heart is deceitful and desperately wicked above all things.

It doesn't think so, because all evil, in varying degrees, seems more right than wrong to too many people. The only ones who have any sense of right and wrong are those who know something about the Word of God, or those who have taken something from the commandments of God, and say, 'Yes, we ought to do this.' Paul calls that the Gentiles who keep the work of the law written in their heart are a law unto themselves.

In other words, all of God's laws always work, all the time, and they are a law unto themselves, because they come from God! Now, that doesn't mean that the Gentiles have an understanding of the plan of God or the Word of God, but this is just in general, referring to people in the world, whom you would call good, decent people in the world. They think they are good and decent people in the world; however, they are blinded to their own sins

• be it religious, with the holidays
• be it obedience to law in the society
• be it how you conduct science
• be it how you conduct education

All of these things.

Combine this all together. Moreover, if these were the case then—what we've covered above here—God would no longer be God and Sovereign Ruler of the universe, because men would have the power to command God. Such a proposition is utterly absurd in the extreme.

What did I just describe here? Lawlessness and men who pretend they are God! Where does that come from? Satan the devil, who's 'the god of this world'! What did I just describe to you here in reading this? Exactly how Satan thinks in relationship to his wanting to be like God! Since he couldn't be that, and he knew that God's plan was that mankind would—according to God's plan and everything—be transformed and enter into the Kingdom of God.

Satan from that time, and that's undoubtedly why he rebelled, because after all he couldn't stand the proposition that once those human beings who are made out of the dust of the earth, enter into the Kingdom of God and are transformed to spirit beings, 'will be above me and I want to be like God.' So, this is what pervades the whole world. This is how Satan has deceived the whole world. Not it's much more extreme than what I'm bringing out here.

Now let's look at some prophecies concerning the end-time, and we will put all of these prophecies together and get a picture of what is taking place; this becomes important:

1-Timothy 4:1: "Now, the Spirit tells us explicitly that in the latter times... [If we're not living in the latter times as bad as things are now, I have no comprehension what the latter times are going to be. But as you will see as we get into this, how true it is.] ...some shall apostatize from the faith..." That's out of the Churches of God. That's not talking about the world, because they are all deceived and now here are those within the Church of God who apostatize and reject God. Why would they do that? Because they're still free moral agents! Why would they choose wrongly? Because they did not yield to God enough to then learn from God and receive from God the faith and the strength and the love and the hope to remain faithful at all times.

That leads to the next thing: "...and shall follow deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons" (v 1)—Satan the devil and his angels. That does not just apply to 'religion'; that applies to everything:

• government
• education
• science
• economics

Everything that is in the world is ruled over by Satan the devil and his demons! Today we can see this, almost on a minute-by-minute perspective, if you try and follow the news concerning the leaders of the world concerning the upcoming election and listening to our infamous President Barack Hussein Obama.

Verse 2: "Speaking lies in hypocrisy..." This happens not only in government, but in the judicial system, in religion, in education, in finance. And it's in such an intense way.

Some of these verses you will see I've had on my mind for quite a while, but here's one that really sticks in my mind when we talk about how intense is the deception of Satan the devil of the people in the world in all aspects of life. So much so that lawlessness becomes the accepted norm in everything.

• Do we have a dollar that is a lie? Yes!
• Do we have a government that is a lie? Yes!
• Are the religions of the world a lie?
• Are the educational systems of the world a lie?
• Where is there truth?

Why is the lying so intent in the world and the inability of people to see the truth? Why is that?

Isaiah 25:7 talks about the first thing Christ is going to do when He returns. We know the Day of Atonement pictures putting away Satan. That's only the start of the process leading up to the beginning of the Millennium. What is He going to have to do to people? How many will be killed and destroyed?

Dolores mentioned last night, 'Boy, there's sure a lot of talk about death, doom, and gloom.' I said, 'Well, welcome to the last days.' How can you have a positive attitude with so much dead in the world, with so many lies in religion and in business? You have to have the Spirit of God in Truth and the strength to understand what is right and what is wrong. But for the world, and God has called us out of the world

Isaiah 25:7: "And He will destroy in this mountain..." The first thing He's got to do in order to reach people. And it says there in Ezek. 36 that He's going to give Israel a heart of flesh instead of a heart of stone, meaning that they will be also converted. In other words, the hard-core sin that is genetically within human beings is going to be modified. And God is the One Who gave it to us. But Satan is the one who intensifies it.

Let's go back and let's talk for just a minute concerning the offering of Cain. Remember, if Josephus is correct, they were about 135-years-old at that time, Cain and Abel. There was the difference in approach to God by Cain and Abel for a long time. That's why Cain was jealous of the righteousness of Abel. And Cain wanted to do things his way and brought an offering his way by his choice, rather than by what God commanded. And what did God say to Cain when he got mad because God didn't accept his offering? He said, 'If you do well, you will be accepted. But if not, sin lies at the door.'

Satan can take the human nature and through training and programming and controlling the mind, he's the 'spirit of the power of the air.' Here's what He did beginning with Cain. "And He will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering which covers all people..." (v 7). When we come to that little word all, it means all. And part of the problem that people have in reading the Bible is, they really don't understand that every word means what it says. That's why a proper translation is important. That's the attitude that we had when we produced the Bible.

"...the covering which covers all people, and the veil that is woven over all nations" (v 7). That's the state of the world today.

Here is the evidence broken down in different terms. Satan has deceived the whole world. And here we have the means by which he has deceived them, 1-Timothy 4:2: "Speaking lies in hypocrisy, their consciences, having been cauterized with a hot iron; forbidding to marry..." (vs 2-3). And everyone says, 'Oh, yeah, that applies to the Buddhist and that applies to the Catholics.' No! It applies to a group of advanced elite today. Then it goes on concerning commanding to eat meats, and so forth.

2-Timothy 3:1: "Know this also, that in the last days... [Combine that with 1-Tim. 4:1.] (Here's what that produces): ...perilous times shall come; for men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, braggarts, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, savage, despisers of those who are good, betrayers, reckless, egotistical, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God… [In spite of all of that, they appear 'religious']: having an outward appearance of Godliness, but denying the power of true Godliness. But as for you, turn away from all these" (vs 1-5).

You look at the world today and see how absolutely true that that is. As I've mentioned before, when you go channel surfing through all of the channels, have the Ten Commandments handy and then gauge everything you look at. Let's have a second standard of gauging what you're looking at. I did this the other night and concluded there wasn't anything worth watching. We don't have as many channels as some people; some people have over 200 channels, we only have 70-some.

Galatians 5:19: "Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these: adultery, fornication..." First two are sex sins. Where does that start? What are they doing in New York City? They're having 11 and 12-year-olds being taught every perverted sex act under the sun, because there is so much perverted sex in the world that, of course, 'we must protect the children.' That's not how you protect them. You're teaching them how to pervert their own lives with the sex. And then provide them information where they can get abortion without their parents ever knowing.

"...uncleanness, licentiousness, idolatry, witchcraft... [All follow one after the other. And witchcraft is the ultimate end of where the elite scientists in the world are going today. Witchcraft and direct satanism.] ...hatred, strifes, jealousies, indignations, contentions, divisions, sects, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such things as these; concerning which I am telling you beforehand, even as I have also said in the past, that those who do such things shall not inherit the Kingdom of God" (vs 19-21).

I want you to couple all of these things together, all of these verses. Let's construct a clear picture of what it's like at the end. Let's come to the book of Daniel; let's add this into it. I want you to keep everything in mind, all the verses that we have covered, because we're going to add some other verses to it. Here's one of them:

Daniel 12:4: "But you, O Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, even to the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." That's describing our age. Our age has been this way and more intensified since all of the travel began. And even I myself, in preaching and teaching, am traveling to and fro—right? Yes! I be sure and take my air mattress with me, though. So, this intensifies it.

Verse 9: "And he said, 'Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and refined. But the wicked shall do wickedly... [What does it mean the wicked do wickedly? Is this just in a 'religious' sense, or is this not in every aspect of human life? Every aspect of human life!] ...and none of the wicked shall understand..." (vs 9-10). Why? Because they have this covering and this net! They are ensnared by Satan the devil, (Isa. 25:7)—add that to it. Plus, the Christianity of this world, i.e. Catholicism and Protestantism, have told so many lies and have been so hypocritical, that no one believes anything out of the Bible.

They may agree with some of the Ten Commandments, but God doesn't want partial recognition or obedience. He wants complete obedience. What did Jesus say when He was tempted by Satan the devil to turn the stones to bread? He said, 'Man shall live by every Word of God that proceeds out of His mouth.' Which means then, you can't have a partial agreement with God. If you do, you're never going to be converted. You may have some blessings for keeping the letter of the law in some things, but you're still not going to understand the truth of what's happening.

Let's come to Matthew 24; we're going to cover a couple of things here. And let's understand, in the end-time, as we read the book of Revelation, the whole world is involved; all nations, all people, the whole world is involved. That's why we have such instantaneous communication today.

I remember when I came home, I flew American Airlines, and they've had this right on the fuselage of the plane, right next to the entrance when you get in. It says One World. Conditioning! I want you to stop and think of this: How many programs, books, people, politicians, bankers, financiers, educators, and just people in the world understand that now we are in a worldwide global setup—correct? Yes, indeed! How many think that this is a wonderful, wonderful thing? Of course! After I sat down and we were taking off, the stewardess came on and she said, 'We have snacks for sale. However, we no longer take cash.' American Airlines has gone cashless. Now what a convenient precursor to the mark of the beast—huh? Yes, indeed!

Now let's put all of this together, Matthew 24:4: "Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Be on guard, so that no one deceives you.'" And with the deception the way it is around the world, all nations and people, that is a tough thing to maintain, which you can only maintain

• through prayer
• through study
• through keeping the Sabbath and Holy Days of God

You cannot maintain it any other way, because you ultimately have to come down to:

• Is God right or are you right?
• Is God right or is man greater than God?
• Is God right or Satan the devil?

You have to answer those questions, because if you don't, then you're going to reserve a little part in your mind for your own carnality and your own sin, and God wants that converted and swept away with the washing of the water by the Word.

"For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ'..." (v 5). And let's just put it this way. Many will come saying they are saviors—of the financial situation, of the human condition, of 'religion.' Isn't that what all the politicians are trying to do? What are they saying now to all of the Republican candidates? 'What is your plan to save the economy?' Right? And if they do, then they're a savior. So, it doesn't mean just Jesus, the Christ. It means that there will be many coming as false Christ's, false saviors, for many different things.

Verse 6: "And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you do not let these things disturb you. For it is necessary that all these things take place, but the end is not yet." Go home tonight and get a map of the world or a globe of the world, and look where there are wars. Especially in chaos-stan, from North Africa, from the Atlantic, clear to Pakistan and south to include all of the Arab states. I think one financial man now includes all of Africa—chaos-stan. Oh, we have it too—don't we? Yes, yes, yes, the sit-in in Wall Street, the burning in Oakland. Oh, yes! Chaos!

Verse 7: "For nation shall rise against nation... [race against race. Do we have that?] ...and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines... [Ongoing right now? Yes!] ...pestilences... [Yes!] ...and earthquakes in different places.... [Yes!] ...Now, all these things are the beginning of sorrows" (vs 7-8).

If you are not fortified spiritually with the Word of God and God's Spirit, you're going to get greatly disturbed and probably depressed. You need to always focus on—what did Jesus say? 'Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.' And we need that more than ever before.

Jim talked to a man, and Jim conveyed to me, that this man thought, this year instead of going to the Feast of Tabernacles—that is, with us—he decided to go to an independent one that was only 100 miles away from his home—Independent Church of God. Not once did they mention the purpose of the Feast out of the 4-8 preachers they had. I don't know the whole setup that they had. That proves a point. Unless we constantly are focused on the goal—and isn't that what they tell you in sports, how to be successful? Focus on the goal!

Well, they borrowed that from God. The way that you are successful spiritually is to focus on the goal. Have that as a goal. Don't be distracted by any of these things that are going on in the world, because we need to realize that in trusting the Word of God, the Word of God tells us all of these things are going to fail, every one of them! Not one of them is going to succeed, even though they may have good intentions.

The comment was made: There were Jews here in California who kept the Feast of Tabernacles, but they didn't mention the true meaning because they have rejected Jesus Christ. Another good example of how you cannot use your free will to pick and choose so that you end up deciding good and evil. That's just exactly the way it is. Everything comes down to that one thing.

Would you admit that all of these things are happening today that we just covered here in Matt. 24? Yes! Let's note something else that is interesting. While there were fulfillments of this prophecy beginning right at the time of Jesus, Matt. 24 on a worldwide basis was made for today. If there's an earthquake, like there was last week in Turkey, we hear about it instantly. 'Oh, seismograph just said there's a 7.2 earthquake in eastern Turkey.' Right away! You know right away when all of these things are taking place.

Verse 10: "And then shall many be led into sin..." That's what's happening. 'Let's set up a line at the schools and let's get all the freshmen to get in this line. But let's just start it at a blank wall and let's see how long the line is.' After a while, it got to be really long and they were going no place. And that's what happens when these airhead young adults, who are no more than juvenile children mentally, spiritually, and intellectually, go to college. They are immediately brainwashed into accepting all of the liberal stuff that is taught, which is pure lies, hypocrisies and satanism.

I talked to one woman who said that her granddaughter grew up and she was supposed to be a nice granddaughter, but I reminded grandma she may have had that appearance that she was, because in today's world you never know what the children are doing when they're with their friends and when adults are not around. But she got to this college, accepted all this satanic liberalism, and within 60 days was a full-fledged lesbian.

Verse 11: "And many false prophets shall arise… [They don't have to all be religious prophets. We're going to read about some prophets in human development that reject all 'religion,' yet in the final analysis are going to be seeking Satan the devil and the spirit world.] ...And because lawlessness shall be multiplied..." (vs 11-12).

I want you to put all these verses together. Go back and study them in sequence, one after the other.

• What is lawlessness?
• What does it mean to be multiplied?

Lawlessness is against law and the ultimate of that is anarchy.

• Who is the father of anarchy? Satan the devil!

Lawlessness is rejecting the laws of God! Lawlessness carried even further is substituting your humanly devised ways in place of God's laws. Now then, you multiply it. What do we have? The world of today! I'm going to tell you about this world that you know very little about, which is going to sweep this world off its feet.

(go to the next track)

Transhumanism—I'll explain what that is and what that means and how this is going to happen. It's not just something that is worked on in the laboratory in its initial stages. Transhumanism is ready to be implemented on a big-time scale. They've already had all their experiments. They already know what they can do.

There are several key points concerning what we need to be doing, which then is going to verify what I've been emphasizing. Ephesians 6:10: "Finally, my brethren... [He's concluding the letter. But since we're just reading this and just starting into what we're going to cover, I'm going to say, 'Beginning with this, brethren]: ...be strong in the Lord... [that includes everything that I have said] ...and in the might of His strength."

We can't rely on our own power, our own thoughts, or anything like this. This is why it is not going to work if you are just following a man, if that man is not teaching you the Truth of God and is not living it himself. That doesn't mean he's not going to have some problems and sins. He can repent of them whatever it is.

Verse 11: "Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand... [we're going to notice how many times he says stand] ...against the wiles... [the schemes] ...of the devil." And he's got a lot of them. As we're going to see, transhumanism is a vast thing that is about ready to be unleashed on the world. Already has started in transgenics, which then are the genetically-modified foods.

Verse 12: "Because we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against principalities... [This is run directly by Satan the devil to fulfill his desire to make people as he is: 'You shall become gods' and that means you shall become like me.] ...Because we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against principalities and against powers, against the world rulers of the darkness of this age... [They do worship Satan the devil and they do know what they are doing. And they are hypocritical liars to the nth degree. They consider all of the rest of humanity to be nothing but slobs. Stupid ignorant people.] ...against the spiritual power of wickedness in high places."

You ever wonder what happens to those who are elected to office and go to Washington, D.C.? It's like walking into a canopy that covers the whole area:

• deception by Satan the devil
• lying schemes
• lying this
• power
• authority

Happens in education and it happens in research of science. When we're talking about transhumanism, we're talking about what the scientists, under the direct inspiration of Satan and the demons, have been doing. Remember, they have long since rejected God. They have long since rejected anything to do with the Bible or Christianity. They consider themselves the elite and higher above all people and all religions, and the Word of God. That's how they act and conduct their lives.

Then it tells us how we are to be alert to this. I gave some Church at Home programs, which we recorded on transhumanism. Since then, wanting to have more information on it, I sent for the DVD, Transhumanism: Destroying the Barriers, (by Tom Horn). Now what this really is lawlessness.

You go back to Genesis and it says that 'God created the animals and the birds and the plants after their kind.' This is destroying the barriers of human existence by genetic manipulation. And they call it 'directed evolution.' This is on a vast scale, almost unheard of. They have departments of transhumanism. You go online and look up transhumanism. Go online, look up Stanford University. Go online and look up Arizona State University.

But here is something that we need to be aware of and this is not science fiction. It is a scientific fact that they are doing. We're not talking 30-40 years down the road. We are talking 5-10. Remember, I mentioned about Raymond Kurzweil, who said by 2030 we will have immortality. That's the goal. 'You shall become gods.'

Let's come back and understand what it is. This is from the video, Transhumanism: Destroying the Barriers by Tom Horn. And he says he's Christian, but he never covered one single Scripture, except eluding to kind after kind. Let's have a definition:

Transgenic—(#1) relating to or being an organism whose genome... [genetic code] ...has been altered…

They are able to do this now. You've heard of in vitro babies. That was only the start.

…by the transfer of a gene or genes from another species or breed. (#2) Of relating to the study of transgenic organisms and transgenic research.

Remember some years ago they said, 'Oh, we have mapped the human genome.' What did that mean? That means that they understood all the genes that a human being has at the genetic level. When you get to the genetic level, regardless if it is human or animal or plant, a gene is a gene is a gene.

Through natural procreation of human beings and animals, God has set the limit—kind after kind. He verified that in two instances:

• If you cross a donkey and a horse, you get a mule, but its infertile, and it's more stubborn and dumb than a donkey. So you've got something else, too.
• Buffalo and a cow. They have tried to get beefalo. When they try and breed the offspring, it goes either to buffalo or to the bovine.

That is God telling the limit. That's why God said, 'You shall not have your livestock bred with other species.' That's basically what it means—mingled.

The human genome is known. And they have been splicing in to the human genome—and they know how to do it—the genes of animals. Just exactly like they have done with the tomato. They took a gene from a flounder, inserted it into the genetic makeup of a tomato and now it's able to withstand very cold temperatures and not freeze.

They have taken the potato and they have taken a gene from a moth, inserted that into the genetic makeup of a potato. When it reproduces, it's always carried on from there. And that's so that the potato will not spoil.

They have had genetically-modified foods, and they now know that these genetically-modified foods, which are in nearly everything. If you buy any processed food that contains corn, soybean, even wheat, it's been genetically-modified. And they now know that that is not digestible in the system. Coupled with the fact that if you cook with a microwave, you have a doubly indigestible food. Which means that it's going to add to the incidents of sickness and disease, especially cancer.

This means that they're crossing over the species barrier and they blend different kinds of creatures—

• it's done by the pharmaceuticals
• it's done by the military
• it's done by leading universities
• it's done by corporations

—on a vast scale!

We're soon ready to see transgenic human beings. For example, DARPA. Now DARPA is the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, which gets billions of dollars from taxpayers—right? They had been researching spider webs and how strong spider webs really were if you could get them together and if you could make them into a thread, instead of just single one, twist it and make it into thread.

They couldn't get a spider farm and have millions and millions of spiders and then go in and harvest the webs. Where are you going to get the billions of flies to feed them, so you can have them reproduce and then build all of these webs. So what they did, they took the spider thread silk, as they call it, gene, spliced it into goats, and they produced the spider thread in the milk of goats. They've been able to take this and make super-strong rope, make super-strong nets, and things like this. Have you heard of that before? I didn't. I sat there when I was watching this video and my mouth dropped open. I was thinking, 'This is incredible.' All of this has been going on and all of the preliminary testing leading up to these things have already been done. You've heard of cloning? That was one of the steps!

Transhumanism is also a cultural movement and it is in many religions. I'm sure we cannot reproduce that video, but I don't know how much online you can learn, so go online and look up transhumanism. We have

• cross species
• cross the barrier
• altered

and when it happens permanently, when you put the genes into a human being, it's permanent; it's passed on!

What happens? What is Satan's tactic always? 'All of this we're going to do is for your benefit.' It's like he told Adam and Eve, 'If you eat of this, you'll become like God to decide good and evil for yourself. You don't have to depend on God. You can decide it for yourself and you'll become like gods.'

They promise to make them better, stronger, smarter, but they are also looking at crossing the genes of animals

• who have enhanced vision into human beings
• who have enhanced sensory hearing into human beings

—namely, soldiers.

• who have an instinct to kill, such as a wolf

And they even showed a composite that was made up by an artist, I'm sure, of a soldier who had wolf's hair on his face, wolf's eyes, and he had his automatic weapon. If he could smell and if he could hear and if he could see like a wolf, and if he also had other genes in him, just think how powerful a soldier like this would be.

Let me read some of the things here from World Net Daily; here is what was written, called The Nightmare World of 'Trans-humanism' (Joseph Farah, Between the Lines; Aug. 26, 2011, www.wnd.com).

…I've researched events, developments and trends that are so bizarre, so frightening, so twisted and so unbelievable that they are nearly impossible to cover without being dismissed for "sensationalism."

And I can add in there wackoism and crazy.

That's the problem with a story earlier this week in WND about something called "trans-humanism."

You've heard of bio-engineering or genetic engineering. Well, it doesn't just involve crops and animals any more. Now there are active efforts under way to "improve" mankind—even to achieve immortality through science.

One of the projects at the Arizona State University is entitled, Seeking the Spirits and Immortality. In other words, you come full circle. You reject God, you embrace Satan's teachings, you embrace his philosophy, now he brings you his science, now you are ready to do things that make you super human, and now 'we're going to improve the human race. Let's go one step further. Let's seek the spirits.'

As one biologist said, 'The basis of all life is spirit' in the book, The Biology of Belief by Bruce Lipton. And he said, after his research in quantum physics and quantum biology, he said, 'We are gods.' The way that they are going to seek to overcome mortality is to find the gene that causes all the cells in the body when they're replicated, to not replicate themselves totally 100%. That's why we age, because the cells are not reproduced totally 100%. That's called the death gene. Who put that there? God did! 'Dust you are and unto dust you shall return.' You shall die.

Nick Bostrom, an Oxford University philosophy professor and director of the Future of Humanity Institute, is at the forefront of the trans-humanist movement.

So here's what they believe:

"They (trans-humanists)... [there are thousands and thousands of them.] ...yearn to reach intellectual heights as far above any current human genius as humans are above other primates," he says.

Think of what that's saying. Then they can control and make certain ones that are a dumber level—correct? They even want to have synthetic wombs so that the feminists will not have to bear children.

What happens when men proclaim themselves that way? What happened to Adolph and his master race? All of that knowledge, and all of those things, was transferred over here, into Britain, and we've continued on with the research that the Germans did at a higher pace since the end of World War II. You've seen stories of Dr. Mengele? He's nothing compared to what they have today. He would not even qualify for kindergarten. 'They professed themselves to be wise.' Why with this kind of situation, God is going to destroy most of human life. Did He do it once before? Yes, He did!

Romans 1:18: "Indeed, the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all ungodliness... [scientific, religious, governmental, financially, individual, corporate, communities, states, nations.] ...and unrighteousness of men who suppress the Truth in unrighteousness." Not only the laws of God, but the creation of God, the truth of the barriers that God has made.

Verse 19: "Because that which may be known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested it to them." Because you cannot study these things and not understand that there is a Creator. And if your conscience is so seared that you think you are now so intellectual and so great and have the power that you are now going to enhance evolution, called 'directed evolution', which then destroys the theory of evolution—correct? Because none of the things we're talking about here with transhumanism has anything to do with so-called natural selection.

Verse 20: "For the invisible things of Him are perceived from the creation of the world... [What do they study? The creatures and creation in the world—correct? And like this one biologist said, 'We're gods. There's spirit behind it.'] ...being understood by the things that were made—both His eternal power and God-head—so that they are without excuse; because when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but they became vain in their own reasonings, and their foolish hearts were darkened" (vs 20-21).

We're talking about educated people who have no knowledge of God and their hearts are darkened.

• they have no feeling
• they have no compassion
• they have no love

They just have a satanic urge to improve human beings, which as one man wrote is going to lead to utter destruction of the world. That's why Jesus said unless He returned there would be no flesh saved.

Verse 22: "While professing themselves to be the wise ones, they became fools." Who is the most notorious fool? Not only Satan, but what does it say in Psa. 14 & 53? 'The fool has said in his heart there is no God'! We are talking about those who reject God entirely. We are talking about the elite of the education and government and finances and science in the world. This is big-time, brethren.

Verse 23: "And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed creatures, and creeping things…. [They can combine all of these things into a human being.] (What happens?): …For this cause, God also abandoned them to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to disgrace their own bodies between themselves… [Where does all of this perverted sex come from? From the elite and the educated—right? Yes, indeed!] …Who exchanged the Truth of God for the lie... [Totally deceived by Satan the devil, wickedness in high places. I mean, this is something!] ...and they worshiped and served the created thing more than the one Who is Creator, Who is blessed into the ages. Amen" (vs 23-25).

And what are they worshipping? Their own minds, their own abilities, and their own satanic manipulation of genes and cells to create super-soldiers, super-intelligent beings!

What I want you to understand is, the Bible is not an archaic thing for ages past. The reason that there are more Bibles in the world today than ever before in the history of the world, and in more languages than any time in the history of the world, is because the Bible is a witness for today and has been written for us today on whom the ends of the earth have come. We need to understand that. I'm going to admonish everyone,

• Please stopplaying church!
• Please stop playing patty-cake hierarchy!
• Please stop following a man!
• Follow Christ!

If you have a minister or teacher who is not teaching you, why do you stay in that church? God means business! Christ is going to come in power and literally destroy this world because of what men are doing. And what does He say of the Laodiceans? We are so obnoxious in His mouth, because of being lukewarm and nicey-nicey, social-social people and afraid to talk about the truth of these things, that we just can't ruffle the feathers of anybody.

The truth is Jesus offended everyone because they couldn't handle the Truth. If it were not for the fact that He called the 12 apostles and those others of the 120 to start the Church, they wouldn't follow Christ; they would have likewise been offended. And to prove that point when Peter said, 'Lord, far be it from You that this'll happen to You. I'm ready to go to the death with You.' He said, 'Get you behind Me, Satan.' Then He said at another occasion, when he said the same thing, He said, 'Satan has desired to sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for your faith; you're going to deny Me before this night is over three times.'

That tells us a great deal. We cannot serve God and serve the brethren and teach the Bible if we're going to do it by human devices and human means. Here's what we're facing:

They want "to be resistant to disease and impervious to aging; to have unlimited youth and vigor; to exercise control over their own desires, moods and mental states; to be able to avoid feeling tired, hateful or irritated about petty things; to have an increased capacity for pleasure, love, artistic appreciation and serenity; to experience novel states of consciousness that current human brains cannot access. It seems likely that the simple fact of living an indefinitely long, healthy, active life would take anyone to post-humanity if they went on accumulating memories, skills and intelligence."

'We shall become gods'—right?

• Is this not Satan's counterfeit of what God offers?
• Does not God offer eternal life His way?
• Does He not offer understanding through His Word and Spirit His way?
• Does not Jesus Christ and God the Father through the Holy Spirit dwell in us and we are a temple of God?
• Do we not look forward to the resurrection where our bodies will be transformed?

Satan's transhumanism is a counterfeit. We'll talk about the evil that all of this resulted in before the Flood.

Imagine, for instance, the ways the Defense Department–and the militaries of foreign countries—retrying to use this new science to create new weapons and even indestructible "soldiers."

What does Joel 2 say? The soldiers of the armies, which a prophecy of the armies from the east, run in their ranks and they're not wounded. They climb the walls, they leap through the windows, they go into houses.

I wonder how many primate genes they have put into them to be stronger. Can you imagine a soldier that had the strength of a bull, the cunning and senses of a wolf, the instinct to kill, the ability to not have anything wound him; and you have an army of those? Does that sound a little bit like Rev. 8 & 9? And does that not raise the question: How much time do we have? and How far will God let this go?

"One of the first things that President Obama did at the executive level as soon as he became president," he says in "Trans-Humanism," "[is] he overturned restrictions that had been put in place by President [George W.] Bush, which would have prohibited federal dollars, American taxpayer money, flowing in to pay for experiments to be done on human-animal chimeras (combinations) and other forms of science such as stem-cell sciences–which is also important to the trans-humanist movement.

In the bill that he (George W. Bush) signed, it also outlawed making a patent on genetically designed human beings. That's why they want the stem cell. They don't want the stem cell so that we're going to be more healthy. They don't want the stem cells so that we will be able to be better people. They want the stem cells so they can engineer the human species. And George W. Bush had enough guts to outlaw it.

So what happens, first thing that Obama does, he writes an 'executive order' and strikes out the executive order of George W. Bush. Does that tell you where they're coming from? Does that not tell you that they know what they are doing? Does that not tell you what they are trying to promote? Yes, it does!

"But what most of the public doesn't realize is when we're talking about stem-cell sciences, we're almost always talking about the creation of a human-animal chimera from which those stem cells are being derived. But now, tax dollars in the United States from the federal level are flowing into thousands of laboratories."

Like I said, this is big time.

They have already developed the laws. How do you treat someone who is an enhanced human being or trans-human? How do they stand before the law? What if they're half human, half whatever? What if they're half human, part wolf, part gorilla, part kangaroo? Man, you have that, can leap and then you have all of these duped women that you could do like Hitler did. Remember what Hitler did? He had his breeding farms! And he persuaded all of these women that 'you bring forth children from the SS men who have been especially selected for the super race.'—that is, the super human beings.

 How are you going to handle it? What is the legal right of someone who is 50% human and 50% animal? How does the Constitution apply? They already have the laws worked out and it was sent to Case University and Mellum was the man's name who developed all of it. Yes, $773,000 to Case Law School in Cleveland and they developed all the laws ahead of time to handle the transhuman creations.

"The public mostly is still under the impression that this is being done at the embryonic level, and that the amount of human DNA in a transgenic animal is so minute as to be excusable," says Horn. "But where they want the debate to go now is, 'Can we raise these to full maturity... [Which is being asked in the United Kingdom today.] ...'Can we raise these to full maturity in the public's knowledge and experiment on part-humans, part-animals that are fully grown?' And by admitting that that's now where they want the public to be comfortable with this research, they also said that they knew that there are some rogue scientists out there that are not operating with federal dollars...

Oh, rogue scientists, you see, have rejected God and left Him so far behind they're not willing to trust God and reject all of this and ask for God's blessing and to destroy all the enemy out there who may be doing this. 'Oh, no! We've got to do it before someone else does it. We've got to do it before the Chinese do.' And they could probably have 50 million women all ready to go. BANG! BANG! BANG! With a population of 2-billion? Yes, that would be easy to do! Isn't that something!

...and they're getting ahead of them in this technology, and it could even become a new kind of a weapon of mass destruction. It could, at a minimum, become a molecular biological nightmare."

That's just part of it. I'm going to give a second half cover a little more, get into some Scriptures and I think we're going to see that, yes, not only is there a lot more time, but it is going to be Satan's total world. And could God bring an end to this before Satan has had his full-blown finale with the people of the world?

I want you to think as we close here:

• How great is your calling?
• Where are you going?
• What are you doing?
• How's your relationship with God?

Those are the things we need to concentrate on!
