Friends, We
praise the Lord for bringing us through to another year. We also are so
grateful for your prayers
and support. Through thick and thin, your faithfulness has enabled us to reach
out to the lost. We
really want to apologize for everything running behind. December-January were
the months
of "the breakdowns." We had computer problems and both our audio and
video duplicators broke
and one had to be sent back to the factory. Thank you for your patience in
waiting for unbelievably slow orders. Things are fixed now, and we hope to be
able to do better. Bill
had an exciting conference ministering in the Twin Cities in early March. He
will also be ministering at the We
are also working on anew edition of Space
Invaders and new book project, so please pray that
those will be completed in a timely matter. We thank those of you who sent
special offerings for us to be able to replace our '91 Taurus (which now has
164,000 miles on it and is our only car). We have a start, but could still use
either a lot more funds or else someone
to donate a car (it certainly does not have to be new!). Such a gift would be
tax deductible. We
thank you for your prayers and support! If you are not already a regular
supporter, please pray
about becoming one. We can use all the prayers and financial support we can
get, especially now. Remember, God uses you to bless us so that we can minister
to others. Pray
for Revival, Bill
and Sharon Serious Need and
Prayer Alert! As
some of you may know, my wife Because
of her heart condition, she is no longer eligible for health insurance, and so
we are depending entirely on our Lord Jesus for this crisis. As you receive
this, please pray for her to be
healed by the power of God! We are believing Him for this healing, or at least
for wisdom as to how to proceed. Additionally, due to a lot of “spiritual
warfare” factors, the newsletter (print and email) was MUCH more delayed than ever. This, coupled with expenses relating to
We
are behind in bills, partially because some who owe us money have not paid, and
it makes for a difficult situation. It was a struggle, financially, just to get
the “print” version of the newsletter out. Now it will take some time for the
newsletter to be received by post and for people to respond. Normally, we would
not ask this, but if some of you could call and put a donation on your credit
card, it would help us get through. You can call us for that at 563-583-5473,
or send the check or money order by mail to WITH ONE ACCORD, Please
pray about it, and do whatever you can. If we have ever been a help to you in
the Lord, please stand with us now. At the very least, pray that God will work
some miracles for us right now, both in terms of To God be the Glory! It has been a tradition in the
ministry that in the first issue of each new year, we begin with just a small
fraction of letters from people whose lives have been touched in some way by what
we are doing. Such letters are a blessing to us, and we pray that they will be
a blessing to you. Again, we give all the glory to God and rejoice that we can
serve Him in this vineyard. Dear
Rev. Schnoebelen, I
just read your article about the Harry Potter book and I have to applaud you
for your work! I believe that these books really have demonic stuff that
children and teens shouldn't be reading. I'm a 13 year old Christian that really
hates those books and I think they should be taken off the shelves! Thank you
for your ministry. J. H. <email
from Dear
Bill and Sharon, Please
add me to your mailing list in order that I might receive your newsletter. I
love your website and teachings. I plan to copy many of them to share with
others. A
woman I just met recently moved into a house next to our small business. She
and her husband are Christians and the parents of 6 children, 2 biological and
4 adopted. Although the husband and father is the new administrator of a local
Baptist school, they have not made a firm decision concerning whether or not to
allow their children to read Harry Potter books. I plan to share your Harry
Potter article with her for consideration. I will be praying they will
recognize the definite dangers in allowing Harry Potter into their home. God
bless you and your ministry! Sincerely, C. C. Dear
Bill, . Thank
you so much for your article on Dungeons & Dragons for the Christian. I
spent some time as a preteen playing this game. My father encouraged me to quit
because of the effect it was having on my school work and negative things he
had heard regarding the game. Had he been privy to your information, I am sure
his urgings would have been even stronger. I have an 18 month old son and a
daughter on the way. I have often though how I will guide him when things such
as this come up. I was fortunate to be able to walk away from the game but I
can't really say how it has affected the way I look at things. I think I am
well grounded in my faith but my children may not be as strong. You article has
certainly affected me and will affect the way I raise my children. I hope you
will consider this a small reward for the time and effort you have put into
writing this article. God bless you and keep you. In Christian Love, C. W .P. Dear
Rev. Schnoebelen, Your
article about the "Medical Babylon" was so very 'right on.' I
appreciate your candid and articulate article. I am grateful for good teaching
like this. The times are ripe for it. Thank you, L.J.M. Dear
Brother Bill, I
would like to start off by thanking God for another day of life. I would also
like to thank you for your book, Masonry Beyond the Light. It has been a great
help to me down hear in ___ TX. I've read the book two times arid I have
learned a lot from it. The importance is that it has helped my friend who was a
member of the Masonic temple hear in town decide to renounce it! Praise the Lord.
I thank you and God bless! May you continue in God's will. J. G. Dear
Rev. Schnoebelen, Please
sign me up to receive your newsletter. I have recently demitted from - Masonic
Lodge #676, the Scottish Rite and York Rite Masonry after having been a member
for over 30 years. I had served as Master of the Lodge and had, prior to my
resignation, been serving in all the officer lines of all the bodies of York
Rite Masonry. I
can tell you a very interesting story of my deliverance. I am a member of the -
Church, and not one member had anything bad to say about the Lodge until after
I told them I had left Freemasonry. One of our close friends even confided in
me that when she sang at my installation as Master she had asked 3 other
couples to pray for me that night and to surround me with white light of Jesus'
protection. I am now serving on the – Action Board and my ministry is helping
other men to get out of Masonry. God Bless you! D. E. K. Dear
Sir: I
appreciate you, Mr. Schnoebelen. I don't want to waste too much of your time
but I just wanted to let you know that your article, "Straight talk on Dungeons and Dragons", caused a major
turn around in my life. I just finished reading your book, and I have come to
admire you and your wife's ministry. I guess I just want to say thank you. God
bless you! In Christ, A. W. Dear
Bill, Please
place me on your mailing list. I have read and learned a great deal from your
book Blood on the Doorpost. After
doing some research on my family I discovered that my great-grandmother was a
practicing witch. Your book helped explain some of the "problems" in
our family line. Thank you for teaching the truth. K.K.B. Dear
Ones in Christ, I am
requesting ten copies of your recent Liberator (vol. XI, no. 6). As a retired
RN remembering the days of doctor "house calls," before the
antibiotics and the deadly pharmaceuticals - back when most meds were
plant-based and patients were people and not HMO numbers. I have watched
brokenhearted to see what has happened to the profession in the last 55 years. Now
the FDA is seeking to control our food supplements and vitamins. There is no
alternative health now in our area and we fear traditional "AMA medicine"
as much as bio-terrorism and nuclear attack. I
saw so much the last few years before I retired - I could scarcely wait to exit
a profession I was once proud to be a part of. I know the Biblical admonition
to "fear not," but I truly am anxious about what the AMA and your
"Iron Triangle." [of the medical schools, pharmaceutical companies
and the FDA] We are elderly, and are desperately trying to stay out of the
hands of traditional medicine - but we do not always have a choice. In an
emergency, 911 is called and we become locked into the system. Thank you for your
courage to proclaim truth! In Christ, J.W. Dear
Bill and Sharon, I
have just finished reading four of your books. The first one that I read was
Blood on tile Doorposts, then Lucifer Dethroned, Wicca and Masonry. This I did
in the past five nights. You have opened my eyes way, way wider than I thought
that they could ever be. I was one who now I see was burying not just my head in
the sand but my whole body and I thought I was a Christian!! Thank you for making
me think over that one again. Thank goodness you put an email address, now I
know that you are both very busy and that you have a great calling but I just
had to
write. Praise God for your work. J. X. Dear
Bill, It
is nice to finally get a chance to write to you and tell you what a wonderful
job you are doing to help this failing country and the whole world. I wish you
and your ministry continued success and growth in the future or until our Lord,
Jesus Christ, tells us it is time to come home. A
few years ago, a friend of mine gave me a copy of your video, Exposing the
Illuminati from Within, and I was amazed at how much "stuff' was going on
in the world. I knew of some of it and how it was playing hand-in-hand with our
government and governments of the world. It is truly sad and reaffirms that
world peace won't come by man's doing, but by that of our Lord Jesus. Man has been
ruining the world for centuries and now, thinks he can turn back the clock too
late, the damage has already begun and the clock is ticking. Sorry, I don't mean
to go on about this, but some people are heading toward doom and they don't
even realize that there is a way out. I commend you and Sharon on coming into
the Lord's saving light and sharing the gospel with everyone. God bless you and
keep you. Take care and hope to hear more from you. With Best Wishes, M.W.F. Dear
Bill, Hi!
I just wanted to commend you on your fact-filled website about Harry Potter. I
will not let my 3 1/2 year old see the Harry Potter movies, and now I have
facts to back up my beliefs. I was not familiar with witchcraft, but I did feel
that HP was anti-Christian. It seems like not many people are aware of this,
judging from the overabundance of pro-HP websites putting down Christian
beliefs. I'm glad to see your site, and. I will definitely share it with my
loved ones to enlighten them. Keep up the good work! D.M. NOTE OF INTEREST! For those of you who are taking our Blood on the Doorpost Spiritual Warfare Course, please be aware
that we are planning on having the culminating hands-on seminar for the course
(taught by Bill and Sharon personally) sometime in the fall of 2003. The many
of you who are enrolled in the course might want to plan to get through the
lessons before that date so that you would be eligible to attend. Should you
have any problems or questions OR if you would like to enroll (there is still
time), please do not hesitate to contact us at 563.583.5473. The next seminar
would probably not be offered until 2004. THE CLONE WARS? BY WILLIAM SCHNOEBELEN And God said. Let us make man in
our image. after our likeness... So God created man in his own image. in the
image of God created he him; male and female created he them. - Gen. 1:26-27 One
of the big headlines at the new year was the announcement by a little-known UFO
cult that they
supposedly had succeeding in creating a human clone. It almost drove the
terrorist and war news off the headlines for a few days. Of course, as the days
past, no actual proof has been offered of these new baby clones. The
group, the Raelians, is a different twist on the typical UFO sect such as we
discussed in our book. Space Invaders
seven years ago. Like many of these groups, the Raelians (named after their
leader, Rael), believe that "space people" (AKA the Space Brothers) have
come to the earth to help straighten out the poor, benighted human race. Their
"twist" is that they teach that God was actually a skinny alien chap
with almond eyes, yellow skin, long dark hair and goatee. He looks like Fu Manchu
on Valium. This 4-foot-tall alien identified himself as Yahweh - one of the
Elohim, which is the name used for God in Genesis. "Yahweh"
supposedly came here in a UFO that looked like a flattened silver ball. He
visited a French journalist named Claude Varilhon in an extinct volcano crater
in (BIG
surprise). HE – Yahweh - (not the God of the Bible) came to earth with
his colleagues and created Adam and Eve in an elaborate cloning experiment. Vorilhon
(who subsequently took the name "Rael") was told that aliens came to
earth throughout history to guide us. Great leaders such as Buddha, Moses and
Jesus, were actually space aliens, sent to guide our fledgling race. However, a
key point which the Raelians continually make is that there really is no God,
only space aliens. There is no soul, no heaven and no hell. In
an interesting commentary on the current political/medical controversy, Yahweh
claims that he and his co-scientists came to earth to use it as their
laboratory because cloning had been declared illegal on their home world by
stupid politicians. I guess they have those everywhere (sigh!). Naturally,
we are intended to see this as an object lesson in why legislators should keep
their hands off cloning and let scientists (who of course never make mistakes or act out of self-interest) do whatever they
want to the human genome. Immortality from Beyond the Stars The
“gospel” of this Yahweh and his space colleagues teaches that they have been
shepherding humanity down through the centuries and now we are ready for the next big step! We have arrived at
the technological level at which we could clone humans. This
is vital, because Rael claims that cloning is the hope for humanity to achieve
immortality. Without a soul, how is this done? The Raelians are encouraged to
perfect their cloning techniques. They even have a lab in The
goal of their cloning is that you can supposedly make a clone of yourself as
you begin to age. This clone is then grown by some special accelerated process so that you have a “new you” in a
relatively short time. This new “you” would be grown to be a prime age, perhaps
around 20. Rael is somewhat vague about this would be done. In a recent
interview with Art Bell, he claimed that it had not yet been perfected. When
your clone is “ripe” and ready for harvest and you – in turn – are near death,
Yahweh’s race of ET’s supposedly has a super-computer which can upload your
brain patterns from your old brain. Then they download your patterns and
memories (essentially, everything that makes you YOU) into your new clone and
you get an entirely new life of 60-80 years. They believe this process can then
be repeated ad infinitum. As
more and more people become Raelians (there are now supposedly around 60,000 of
them in the world – they enjoyed a 5,000 person membership surge since all of
the publicity about their supposed clone babies) and work to clone and improve
themselves, eventually, we will go off and explore other planets and galaxies and
continue to spread our (or actually Yahweh's) DNA everywhere. This
is, strangely enough, supported in a tentative
way by one of the discoverers of DNA, Francis Crick and a handful of other
scientists (among them eminent astronomers Fred Hoyle and Chandra
Wickramasinghe). Crick, who won the Nobel prize, now teaches a new hypothesis
called Panspermia. Panspermia (literally all seed) teaches that in distant eons
ago, some alien race seeded our planet with DNA and/or the necessary protein
molecules to start life. This
is, of course, a way to breathe life into the dying theory of evolution. Scientists
have never been able to explain how a molecule as complex as DNA "evolved”
out of the primordial goo. Actually, Panspermia is technically called
“Neo-Darwinism,” because it attempts to reconcile the genetic work of Mendel,
who said that organisms do not change over time with Darwinism, which claims
that they do change. Whether
you are talking Neo-Darwinism or old “plain vanilla” Darwinism, it is still
nonsense. All the Panspermia idea does is push back the problem of who
originally designed the DNA molecules from our planet to some other distant
world. Naturally, the Raelians love Panspermia and try to tide on its
coat-tails. Of course, Dr. Crick in no way endorses these Raelian doctrines,
but yet his theories give them some legitimacy. Comparing the Raelians to the Book! Aside
from the obvious intellectual problems with evolution, which are beyond the
scope of this article, what can we learn by comparing the doctrines of this
strange sect to the Holy Bible? First
of all, it is obvious that – like all false religions – they attack the very
Bible itself. They claim that it is not reliable, but rather mythic or poetic
and not to be taken literally. Though they claim Jesus to be a Raelian space
cadet, they deny what He taught: that every word of the Bible is vitally
important (Mt 4:4 But he answered and
said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that
proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Jesus quoting Deut 8:3). In
many places, the Bible teaches that it is without error and that every word of
it has been and will be preserved until the end of the world. One of the best
known passages is Jesus’ teaching: Mt 5:18 “For verily I say unto you, Till
heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the
law, till all be fulfilled.” Additionally,
though the Raelians would like to make Yahweh sound like just one of a
committee of evolved space scientists, the Bible repeated makes it clear that He
is both unique and omnipotent (See Deut. 6:4, Isa. 44:6-8, Isa 43:10). Of
course, there is no need for a savior, because we do not have souls. This is
remarkable, for the Bible (and Jesus Himself) refer to the soul dozens of times
and also our need to find salvation for our souls (such as Ezek 1)
All religions are equally good, so long as they teach love; 2)
There is not really any sin or judgment by God; 3)
The Bible is mostly allegory and fable; 4)
We need to be ecologically sensitive and save the planet; 5)
There should be complete sexual freedom between consenting adults. Obviously,
measured by Biblical standards, these concepts are utter nonsense (other than
#4 – there is nothing wrong with a balanced ecology – we are to be good
stewards of the earth!). The amazing thing about these sort of groups is that
even though there is little or no objective reason to believe any of this information, thousands of supposedly intelligent
people have fallen for it. We
have absolutely no reason to believe that this Rael ever met an "alien."
He is like a modern version of Joseph Smith or Muhammad - another man with an
"angel story." He offers no more proof of his supposed encounter than
has his organization in claiming to have cloned babies. On
the other hand, the Bible has so many objective ways in which it can be proven
to be true (history, archaeology, fulfilled prophecies, etc.) that it is almost
bizarre that people will turn away from it and run after "some new
thing." (Acts Of
course, the Bible demands something in return for its promise of eternal life:
surrender to the Lordship of Jesus. All of these UFO pseudo-prophets and their
followers want to be their own "little gods" and ignore or belittle
the message of What's New! We have a
provocative new audio tape, "A Covenant with Death" (item #185) for a suggested
donation of $7.00. It discusses what is happening to our country and our culture.
What strange spiritual forces have been unleashed in the last generation ration
that has caused such a catastrophic change in our nation - and what in the
realm of spiritual combat can be done about it? Special Note: If this
