What is the Illuminati?

Many misconceptions exist about the term "illuminati". Check out some of these sites to educate yourself on the real illuminati...

Ultimately, I believe that the conspiracy is against Jesus Christ. The Bible says so:

Psalm 2

 1 Why do the nations conspire
   and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth rise up
   and the rulers band together
   against the LORD and against his anointed, saying,
3 “Let us break their chains
   and throw off their shackles.”
 4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
   the Lord scoffs at them.
5 He rebukes them in his anger
   and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
6 “I have installed my king
   on Zion, my holy mountain.”

European History & the Illuminati

The Order of the Illuminati-its methods and its influence on the world


The world “Illuminati” is thrown around rather freely to describe the elite group that is secretly running the world. Most have a general idea of the meaning of the term, but are confused about the concepts and the ideas relating to it. Is the Illuminati the same thing as Freemasonry? What are their goals? What are their beliefs? Why do they act in secret? Do they practice occultism? Attempting to objectively research the subject can become an arduous task as most sources end up being either dismissive disinformation pieces that deny (and even ridicule) anything related to the Illuminati or, at the other end of the spectrum, espouse ill-informed fear mongering based on rumors and misconceptions. In both cases, the researcher ends up with the same result: a distorted version of the truth.

Considering that Secret Societies are supposed to be, by definition, secret, and that history is often rewritten by those in power, obtaining the unbiased truth about the Illuminati is a challenge. This article does not claim to “reveal” or “expose” everything that is to be known about the Illuminati; it rather attempts draw a more precise picture of the Order by citing authors who have extensively studied the subject. Whether they are, at the end of the day, critics or apologists of the Illuminati, these authors base their thoughts on credible facts. Some of the most interesting documents on the Illuminati were written by initiates of Secret Societies as they understood the philosophical and spiritual undercurrent driving the movement forward. Using these works, we will look at the origins, the methods and the impacts of the Illuminati on world history.

Roy Gane-Altar Call

Here is a good book that you can read online for free.

http://www.sdanet.org/atissue/books/altar/index.htm


The Bible teaches us about God's character and Christ's ministry through the services performed at the ancient Israelite sanctuary.  By clearly explaining the meanings of these sanctuary services, Altar Call answers questions about Christ's current ministry in the heavenly sanctuary and explains what that has to do with our salvation through Christ's sacrifice.

Roy Gane is Associate Professor of Hebrew Bible and Ancient Near Eastern Languages at the Theological Seminary of Andrews University. He was born in Sydney, Australia, grew up mainly in Lincoln, Nebraska, and later moved to Angwin, California, where he graduated from Pacific Union College in 1977 with a B.A. in Theology and a B.Mus. in Piano Performance.


MESSAGE OF THE BOOK

To many Christians, Christ's prolonged absence since He ascended to heaven is a mystery. But the Bible reveals that He is continuing to save us, and it invites us to get in touch with Him where He is now – in His sanctuary in heaven. By becoming acquainted with what He is doing in the control center of the universe, we can enjoy closer interaction with Him, more fully experience His transforming grace, and have confidence that we are at peace with God.

The Bible teaches us about God's character and Christ's ministry through the services performed at the sanctuary on earth, where the Lord resided with the ancient Israelites.

By clearly explaining the meanings of the sanctuary services, Altar Call answers questions that have an enormous impact upon the way Christians relate to God and to salvation through Christ's sacrifice. For example:

Was atonement completed at the cross or can you be involved in atonement now?

When you sin, do you still have assurance that you are saved?

Why are you saved by grace through faith but judged by works?

Do you know when God's judgment begins?

How does the judgment affect your personal spiritual experience?

Easter, Passover, & Jesus

I will expound on this some more later, but I wanted to provide some really good resources for Easter, Passover, and Jesus.
