Finding Strength In Jehovah God Through His Son Jesus Christ

Dating back many centuries ago there were secret societies that worshiped an image of a horned goat headed devil that had the upper body of a woman (two large breast), the lower torso of a man; genitals of both sexes (male and female), and the feet of a goat. In the middle of this goat’s head was a pentacle with two points of the star pointing (inverted) downward.

This devil was believed to have certain powers that allowed him to grant worshipers whatever they requested if they invoked him in the way he wanted to be invoked. Incantations, rituals, and following instructional guides given by demonic spirits was the key to obtaining favors from this goat headed devil.

Riches, power, fame, success, and the ability to bind people with spells could all be had by worshiping the image of this goat headed devil. Armies could conquer their enemies; political dynasties could be successfully built; obscure kingdoms could become powerful and extremely prosperous seemingly overnight with the help of “Baphomet” the horned goat headed devil.

But who is this Baphomet? Where did he come from? What is he? Does he really have powers to grant people wishes or is this just another old folk tale or folklore? Is he really a demon or devil as some have said? How old is he and is he still alive today; if so, do intelligent and educated modern day people still worship this goat headed demon? Surely Not! What’s really the truth?

“How you have fallen from heaven, O Morning Star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart”, ‘I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.’ “But you are brought down to the grave, to the depths of the pit” (Isaiah 14:12-15).

He has gone by many, many names since his creation (Ezekiel 28:13); he is the crown prince of disguise and he is the master of deception. He is the ultimate deceiver and the father of lies (John 8:44). He is the greatest impostor that has ever lived, and the driving force behind it all is his overwhelming and unceasing desire to be worshiped as a God! (Ezekiel 28:1).

” Son of man (Yahweh/Jehovah speaking to the prophet Ezekiel) take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre (who was filled with the spirit of Satan) and say to him: This is what the Sovereign Lord says:You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald, chrysolite, onyx and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared. You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.

Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones. Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings” (Ezekiel 28:12-17).

Morning star, Lucifer, Satan, Beelzebub, Bapthomet, Molech, Marduk, Sin and Rain Man are just a few of the names that the devil is known by or have been known by. The list is almost endless, easily reaching over several million names that he is known and recognized by people around the world. He is the master at changing his identity; always evolving and ever changing to acquire new followers as time passes on. But make no mistake about it, every false god or goddess that is or have ever been worshiped around the world at some point or another leads back to one unmistakable source: Satan the devil.

When the Israelite were led out of Egypt where they had been in bondage for four hundred years; they were to settle in a new land–the land of Canaan. Moses was their leader and he was under the direction and guidance of the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob; patriarchs of the Israelites. Because of Abraham’s love and devotion to his God (Yahweh, transliterated Jehovah), Yahweh promised to bless his descendants and be their God in the same way (Yahweh blessed Abraham with great wealth and protected him from his enemies) he had been Abraham’s God (Genesis 14:1-24; 17:1-22).

“When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord, and because of these detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you. You must be blameless before the Lord your God” (Deuteronomy 18:9-13).

The Israelites were to become a “Nation of Priests” and teach all the people of the world about their God and His statues, commandments, precepts and how to worship Yahweh (translated in English as “Jehovah”) in an acceptable way that would be pleasing to Him (Exodus 19:3-6). They were not to practice any of the despicable ways of the nations Yahweh was going to drive out of the land He was preparing to give to the Israelites. They were to be a “Holy Nation” and steadfastly remain pure and free of the detestable practices of the people who He were about to dispossess in the land (Canaan) He was giving to the Israelites” (Deuteronomy 7:1-16).

The Israelites proved to be a very stubborn and disobedient people who did not follow the commands given by Yahweh, and they certainly proved to be anything but a nation of priests to Him. While possessing the land given to them by the God of their fathers Abraham, Issac, and Jacob–Yahweh; they refuse to follow His first command and that was to eliminate all of the inhabitants of the land he was giving them.

And in addition to that they not only didn’t eliminate them completely, but over time they begin to practice and worship the very gods (so called) the Canaanites worshiped (Deuteronomy 16:21,22) and did even worse than what they had done. As a nation the Israelites defiled themselves in the worse kind of way and became enemies of the very God (Yahweh) who had given them the “promised land” in the first place (Deuteronomy 8:1-20).

Witchcraft, Wicca, Satanism, Shintoism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Taoism, are just a few of the many religions that are all united due to one very important point–Satan

Satan is the father of false religion and it is he who mislead the masses into worshiping so called gods and goddesses that are really not gods and goddesses at all; instead, they are only extensions of himself disguised and cloaked with a different twist. He is the true mastermind behind false religion,and false gods and goddesses from antiquity to the present day of mass worshiping of millions and millions of deities that are to numerous to name in this venue.

Mother Nature, Mother Earth, Mary, Mother of God, Isis, Horus, Hermes, Nona, Astarte, Diana, Sophia, Pan, Shekhiniah, Apollo, Adonis, Mercury, Jupiter, Kali, Lord Krishna, Lord Shiva, Aphrodite, Artemis, Athena, Zeus, Vesta, Venus, Cupid, Neptune, Plato, Cybele, Aphrodite, Lord Ganesha, Lord Murgan, Nanna Artemis, Ashtottava, Pele, Priti, Ishtar, Anu, Ea, Marduk, Ogma, Ahura Mazda, Tammuz, Molech, Oba, Katonda, Queen of Heaven, Baal, Jok, Nzambi, Hadad, Ruhanga, Mil com Soko, Ashteroth, Lord Vishnu and Baphomet, are all so called gods and goddesses that have been worshiped in the past as well as in the present by many, but the one thing all these so called deities have in common is that they all lead directly back to one source: Satan the devil.

Today, there is a well known secret society that is called the Illuminati, and it is composed of some of the most influential people around the world. Here in the United States some of its members are head of super corporations with incomes in the hundreds of billions of dollars in American money, others are heads of state in high governmental positions that are considered by some as being the highest in the land (world).

Entertainers, such as well known actors, ‘rock stars’, recording artists (from all genre: gospel, country and western, blues, blue grass, rhythm and blues, opera, pop, rock and roll, heavy metal, rappers, hip-hop, classical, jazz), high profile professional athletes, executives in the motion picture industry, super rich businessmen and women who are multi billionaires, along with everyday people who come from all walks of life are joined together in the worship and exaltation of the two horned, goat headed hermaphroditic devil that is known as “Baphomet”.

Unlike in earlier times when Baphomet was worshiped in secret at hidden places in obscure settings–he is now worshiped around the world in venues fit for kings and queens; in fact, you may very well find kings and queens who worship him and owe their allegiance to him. For many, pledging their allegiance to Baphomet in return for what they want and can get out of life is often viewed as a small token to pay, and they go out of their way to recruit and proselytize to bring in new converts.

The ranks of Baphomet worshipers are growing by leaps and bounds due to the immense popularity of some of its members both old and new. Many people who once shunned this type of activity have not only become apathetic about it, but in increasing numbers many have become sympathetic to it, and as the membership rolls continue to grow exponentially, the astounding stratospheric levels of complete dedication and commitment to serving this horned god signals the beginning of possibly a new world order that will be comprised of unyielding zealots that are willing and eager to sacrifice everything for “Baphomet”, the goat headed, dual horn pointing, large feminine breast hanging, hermaphroditic devil.

For many new adherents to this widely growing trend of worshiping with the stars, or being part of a secret society that consists of some of the most famous entertainers in the world is viewed as cool and hip by many of today’s young enthusiastic followers of Baphomet, but make no mistake about it this so called “cool” and “hip” practice is actually an old and mysterious practice that have proven to be a doorway that leads to utter destruction and eternal damnation without any reprieve whatsoever (Matthew 7:13).

Baphomet is just Satan the devil in another one of his many disguises that he has misled the world with throughout the millenniums. Satan is his name and eternal damnation is his game-for you! If you think that you’re really into something new and something cool-think again.

Satan is the master of deception and no human on earth is capable of matching his whits. This devil was once the highest ranking angel of all except for Micheal (which means “He who is like God”), the arch angel! He was higher in ranking and position (anointed Cherub) than all the other angels; however, he was not wiser than Micheal and his wisdom couldn’t even come close to Yahweh (Jehovah) his creator.

All the smartest men living and all the smartest men that have ever lived combined together couldn’t even come remotely close to having the knowledge and cleverness of Satan. He is superior in every way to all humans, but he is most inferior to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and our heavenly Father Jehovah God.

“Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil (Satan). And when he (Jesus) had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. And the tempter (Satan the devil) came to him, he said, ‘If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But He (Jesus) 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’ (Matthew 4:1-4).

“Then the devil (Satan) taketh Him (Jesus) up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, and saith to Him, ‘If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning the: and in their hands they shall bare thee up, lest any time thou dash thy foot against a stone’.

“Jesus said unto him (Satan), ‘It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God’. Again, the devil taketh Him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and saith unto Him, ‘all these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me’. Then saith Jesus unto him, ‘Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord God, and Him only shalt thou serve’ ” (Matthew 4:5-10).

Satan in his unrelenting desire to be worshiped as a god even tried to tempt Jesus Christ, the Son of God with what he thought would surely be enough to make Jesus bow down and worship him, but he was wrong again. Jesus identified the tempter by name (Satan) and proceeded to quote the “Word of God” as a reply to all of the questions and trick (Satan is the father of lies) tempting offers and promises (at least Satan thought they would be enough to sway Jesus to fall down and worship him-they weren’t) that Satan tested Him with.

However, Jesus did not refute Satan’s ability to give Him ‘all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them’, because it really didn’t matter to Him (Jesus) whether he (Satan) could or could not give Him those things; reason being, He didn’t want them. Jesus came to do His Father’s (Jehovah) will (Matthew 26:42). Jesus identified his tempter as none other than Satan the devil.

Satan’s clever tactics of concealing his identity have been so successful until a vast part of the earth’s population refuses to believe that such a spiritual creature even exist! Many people think that Satan is just a figment of some people imagination and that no such entity exist or has ever existed.

And even practitioners of Satanism clearly denies Satan role from the biblical perspective; instead, they paint a very different picture of an entity that has been wronged and ill spoken of by Christians, and that they (Christians) have been using Satan as a scapegoat for all that’s wrong with Christianity in particular and in general the world we live in.

The “Holy Scriptures” tells a different story about Satan, the father of lies (John 8:44). It tells a story of a fallen angelic creature that wanted to usurp true worship that belongs to the one true God, Yahweh/Jehovah (Ezekiel 28: 12-18). This angelic creature once resided in heaven but after his revolt he was cast down from heaven to the earth-against his wishes.

“And there was war in heaven. Micheal (the archangel) and his angels fought against the dragon (Satan), and the dragon and his angels (demons) fought back. But he (Satan) was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down-that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels (demons) with him” (Revelations 12:7-9).

It is clear to see that Satan did not want to leave his original home and he fought vehemently to keep his place but he and his demons did not prevail and was cast down to the earth at the rejoicing of all the heavenly angelic host, but a solemn warning was pronounced concerning the earth (Revelations 12:3-4).

” Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers (the name Satan means slanderer/accuser), who accuses them before God day and night, has been hurled down. They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb (Jesus Christ) and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death” (Revelation 12:10-11).

And the prophet John continued to report what he saw (as shown and spoken to him by God’s holy angel) and heard by God’s angelic servant “Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short” (Revelations 12:12).

Murderer, and slayer of all mankind is what Satan really is. He truly hates all of mankind simply for the reason that we are all made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26,27). Although there are many who worship him and claim that he is generous and kind and provides for them like the loving father he is, but this is far from the truth and remember-he is the author of lies (John 8:44) and the father of deceit and deception (Genesis 3: 1-24).

Jesus said, ” I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). It may appear that following the path of highly famous entertainers and sports figures, as well as very successful businessmen and women is the way to go; after all, they’re the ones that seem to have everything going in their favor and life couldn’t be better for them. Right? Wrong!

Don’t be fooled by what seems to be a wonderful way to live. Don’t be deceived into thinking that by following Baphomet or any other false god or goddess who can provide you monetary gain, and open doors that otherwise might be closed, that you should indeed follow that path (Bapthomet) that leads to a better life. Don’t sell your soul into eternal damnation for a short existence on earth for the so called “good life”. Don’t allow the world to drag you down into the pits of hell just because you are bent on living the “high life” (Revelation 13:5-8).

Jesus atoned for your sins and mine when He died on the cross, it is His precious blood that washes our sins away. Jesus is always standing at the door of your heart asking you to allow Him to come in. He is a loving and caring Saviour that has a humble spirit. He will never kick the door down and demand that you follow Him; instead, He waits patiently hoping that someday you will receive Him into your heart. Don’t let your life pass you by without you giving yourself to Jesus.

His (Jesus Christ) is the only name under heaven by which men (women,children) can be saved (John 14:6). You have a choice in life to choose whom you want to worship and follow, but make no mistake about it Jesus said, “Enter ye in at the straight gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:13,14).

Don’t follow the crowd that’s headed down a round of eternal damnation (although it might appear that they don’t really care); at least now it might look like life is one great big party and they live carefree, but there is coming a day when they will have to give an account of the way they lived their lives. While you can, why not accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour today? (Hebrews 3:1-19)

Let this be the day you make up your mind to follow the prince of peace, and seek to serve the one true God, Jehovah, with all your mind, body, and soul. Don’t allow a few moments of pleasure to be the reason you spend eternity in hell (1John 2:15-17). Satan (Baphomet) knows his time is short and that a horrible, horrible end awaits him (Revelations 20:10).

Satan’s future is sealed and there’s nothing that can or will change that, but you still have a choice; you can turn your life around and become a servant of the Most High God and a disciple of Jesus Christ today! This is the earnest to goodness truth. You can receive Jesus Christ today-right now if you so desire (Acts 2:38,39).

Please pray with me: Holy Father, Almighty Jehovah God, creator of heaven and earth and all that exist. We come before you tonight in the name of your precious Son Jesus Christ, who is the eternal author of our salvation; our redeemer; our resurrected King who was crucified on Calvary Hill for the remission of our sins-not His. Through His precious blood that was shed on the cross our sins have been washed away. Hallelujah! Thank you Father.

Holy Father, I repent of my sins and I ask forgiveness for all the sins I have ever committed in my whole life. Father God, I pray that you wash me in the precious blood of the Lamb (Jesus Christ) and cleanse me of all unrighteousness and create in me a clean heart to do your will. Father, I believe in your word that says, if I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that you (God) raised Him from the dead I shall be saved (Romans 10:9). Hallelujah! Praise God.

You are now a saved person. That’s right. Don’t let the powers of darkness convince you that you are not, and don’t let doubt (lack of faith) lead you to deny your own salvation. God word is holy and true, so believe it and stand on it.

Continue to pray, study the “Holy Bible”, and ask God to give you His “Holy Spirit” to guide you and lead you in the way you should go, and remember this: continue to pray without ceasing. Just speak to God the Father (Jehovah) from your heart and He will certainly hear and answer your prayers according to His will!

If you have already received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour but at some point turned back to follow Satan, please accept this invitation to returned to Jesus before it is too late. Jesus is a merciful and caring saviour that is ready and willing to accept you back into the fold right now! Jesus died on the cross for you and me and the whole world, it is not His will or desire for anyone to fall away and be lost eternally. Salvation is still just a sincere prayer away. Jesus intercedes on our behalf before the Father.

Please pray with me: Holy Father, I recommit myself to following Jesus Christ. I have willingly and knowingly sinned against you Father. In Jesus name I repent and ask for forgiveness. Wash me again in the precious blood of the Lamb (Jesus Christ) and cleanse me of all unrighteousness. Amen.

Now pick up your cross and begin to follow Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, again. Hallelujah! Praise God. Thank you Father. Amen.

In conclusion, don’t let anyone or anything separate you from the love of God, and our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Until next time, may the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen and amen.

Note: Please understand that over time new revelations are given to me to pass on to all that take the time to read the articles/sermons that I post. Therefore, I believe it is imperative that I share these revelations to all who will listen.

In this article/sermon as with all my articles/sermons I use the name Jehovah when referring to the one true God, and I use the name Jesus Christ when referring to the Son of God. However, I want to set the record straight now, and correct this error.

The true historic name of the Father is “Yahawah” spoken in the ancient Hebrew tongue; Jehovah is a translation of that name. Jesus Christ is a modern day misinterpretation of the messiah “Yahawashi”. It is important that we learn to call upon the true name of the Father and the Son. Thank you.

This sermon, article, posting, can be used freely by all of Jehovah God’s servants, both ministerial and lay persons; nationally and internationally. However, it cannot be used in part but it must be used in its entirety. This body of work cannot be used for sale or profit.
