Marlin:
I am reading a book that just came out. I think you would find it interesting and of value. The title is "Pagan Christianity", authored by Frank Viola and printed by Present Testimony Ministry. It shows how most of our present day church practices came from pagan roots. It is documented and foot noted so that you can check the claims of the author. For me, it was money well spent. If you want, you can find it on the web, www.ptmin.org .
Blessings,
Terry

Okay, David. My interest is in origins for the systems of belief that are with us today. To me, it makes sense to find the primitive roots of following Jesus, and tune into that. I identify with the reformers who tried, but did not get far enough. Many of them were martyred before they could. Precious in the sight of God is the death of His saints.
In spite of persecution that may result, I want to throw out the false doctrines that are the result of the mystery of iniquity. This time period was foretold:
2TH 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 2TH 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2TH 2:5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 2TH 2:6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 2TH 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth [will let], until he be taken out of the way.
