FBI Interview Catches Hillary Clinton In Multiple Lies
FBI INTERVIEW CATCHES HILLARY CLINTON IN MULTIPLE LIES

The FBI just released notes from its July 2 interview with Hillary Clinton about her use of a private, unsecured email server during her tenure as secretary of State. Their findings don’t look good for Clinton.
Days after the interview, which was not recorded, FBI director James Comey publicly held a press conference urging the Department of Justice not to press any criminal charges against Clinton, despite her “extremely careless” handling of classified information.
In the FBI report, Clinton made statements that appear to either contradict her earlier remarks about the email scandal or to be flat-out lies.
Clinton has repeatedly said she has turned over all of her work-related emails on her private server, but the FBI report stated they found 17,448 emails she failed to turn over to the Inspector General.
Several weeks after the initial New York Times story broke in March 2015, revealing the existence of Clinton’s private email server, a bunch of these emails were deleted.
Clinton told the FBI that she didn’t pay attention to the different levels of classification, and that she didn’t understand that an email containing a “(C)” meant “classified,” but that she thought they were marked “alphabetical order.”
Her claims of ignorance — whether they’re true or not — violate an agreement she signed during her first day on the job in the State Department.
From the very beginning of her tenure as secretary of State, Clinton signed a non-disclosure agreement acknowledging that it was her responsibility to ascertain whether documents contained classified information. She also acknowledged the criminal penalties she would face if she disclosed government secrets.
In 2011, State Department employees reportedly received a memo sent on Clinton’s behalf warning them against using personal email accounts for official business, as it could put sensitive information at risk. She told the FBI she didn’t remember sending that memo.
Whenever she upgraded to a new device, the State Department would sometimes lose track of her old ones. On two occasions, staffers destroyed her old devices by beating it with a hammer.
Throughout her time in the State Department, Hillary Clinton went through13 different Blackberry devices — none of which she found or turned over to the FBI.
Former secretary of State Colin Powell warned Clinton about the dangers of using a personal device, because if it came out, then all her private emails would be subject to public scrutiny — a conversation she refuses to talk about publicly.

SOROS EXPOSED PLOTTING TO NATIONALIZE AMERICAN POLICE

SOROS EXPOSED PLOTTING TO NATIONALIZE AMERICAN POLICE 
BY ALEX NEWMAN
SEE: http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/crime/item/23979-soros-exposed-plotting-to-nationalize-american-policerepublished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:

Billionaire statist George Soros has been helping Obama and globalist forces to federalize control over American police forces under the guise of pushing “criminal justice reform,” hacked e-mails and documents from his shadowy Open Society “philanthropic” empire revealed. From funneling tens of millions to radical activist groups and race-mongers to building what leaked documents refer to as a “national movement” to “reform” law-enforcement and working with the White House to do it, Soros fingerprints can be found all over the growing anti-police chaos that has enveloped U.S. cities in recent years. The agenda is clear: stripping communities of self-government and imposing federal cops.
The Soros plot outlined in Open Society Foundation documents involves, among other elements, helping Obama impose his United Nations-backed “guidelines” and “standards” on American police departments — at least at first. Eventually, the goal is to impose a national police force on America accountable not to local communities, as has traditionally and constitutionally been the case for centuries, but to the increasingly lawless federal executive branch. The implications for freedom and self-government of transferring control over police to the White House are massive.
As The New American has been reporting for decades, the establishment's long-term goal is to centralize all coercive power in its own hands. A national police force — or at least federally controlled state and local police departments — are a crucial component of that agenda. While grassroots efforts  and constitutional limitations on federal power have made the goal hard to achieve, the Obama administration has made more progress on nationalizing law-enforcement than any other president in U.S. history. Soros, widely ridiculed as “Dr. Evil” by critics, has helped in a major way.
Unsurprisingly, Soros minions celebrated Obama's efforts in the leaked documents, and sought to capitalize on and support them. In particular, the decision-makers of the billionaire's U.S. programs touted the 60 “recommendations” issued by the so-called President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing, a radical outfit created by an executive order from Obama. They call that effort “promising,” and note that one of Soros' minions on his board even served on the task force. The report also noted that “a number of grantees” receiving Soros largess testified at the hearings.
Essentially, and unsurprisingly, Obama's “task force” outlined various strategies the federal government could use to usurp control over local police departments. Those strategies included, perhaps most infamously, recommendations that bribes (“federal grants”) be used to trap local officials into obeying the White House by making sure the “grants” come with strings attached. Soros' agents lament the federal government's “limited authority to dictate reform at the local level,” but nonetheless celebrate efforts to “ensure effective implementation” of Obama's radical agenda among local police agencies.
The plot involves getting local police departments and law-enforcement agencies to accept federal money for various purposes — usually not even very much money. Once they accept it, they would supposedly be bound by Obama's “guidelines” and “standards.” The strategy is not new and was used earlier in the administration's tenure on education. The similarities led critics to blast the “ObamaCops” program, a reference to the extraordinarily unpopular Common Core, also known as “ObamaCore,” an Obama-backed plot to nationalize education standards imposed with bribes and bludgeoning from the White House.   
Other Obama police schemes touted by Soros' minions included the Policing Data Initiative, in which the feds would hand out taxpayer money to local police in exchange for submission to uniform federal data-gathering and -sharing standards. The document also celebrates the increasingly radicalized Justice Department's“pilot programs” to hijack control over police in six American cities. The plot involves developing federal guidance for local cops and deploying federal “experts” to do everything from “fight crime” and “build trust” to “reduce bias.” Other cities have been bullied, threatened, and terrorized by the administration into submission using “consent decrees.”  
Operatives for Soros, a protegĂ© of the powerful Rothschild banking dynasty, were only too happy to help. “We are gaining a better understanding of these efforts in order to determine how best USP [Soros foundations' U.S. Programs] can use this moment to create a national movement,” the hacked document explained. “We have already had a set of preliminary conversations with about a dozen key stakeholders and will undertake a field scan to map the areas of work currently underway to advance police reform, including an assessment of the redundancies and gaps in work, and opportunities for collaboration. As we proceed, we will engage the funder network we helped to establish.”
In other words, Soros, who has dumped tens of millions into fomenting riots, hate, and dangerous anti-police extremism, was seeking to build an AstroTurf (fake grassroots) “national movement” to support Obama's unconstitutional efforts to usurp control over Americans' local police departments. To that end, leaked documents show that Soros and his minions have been showering huge amounts of money on “Black Lives Matter” and other outfits with similar agendas — and then blatantly lying to the public about it when confronted.    
The document also outlines a discussion on exploiting alleged “police abuse” to create first “local reform,” and then see how and if that can be “leveraged into a national movement.” Such a scheme will require “frank discussion” about the strengths and weaknesses of “the field of policing reform advocates” and “the possibilities on the national federal landscape for reform,” the document says. “We are aiming to get board guidance on the direction a committed effort on our part might take.”
The Soros minions also explain how the puppets receiving Soros money were being exploited to push stronger federal control over police. The radical Soros front groups were “pushing the Justice Department to use its existing authority [sic] to place conditions on the funding it provides to local police departments, requiring basic elements of good practice in exchange for federal funds,” the document says, with “good practice” meaning whatever Soros and Obama — not local voters — want your police department to do. While lamenting that even a “progressive” attorney general has not done everything they want, Soros' agents boast that they are using their “key grantees” to keep up the pressure.
As if to confirm the thesis of an article published by The New American magazine in its September, 14, 2015 “Police Under Fire” Special Issue, the recently leaked document also outlines Soros' strategy to use “pressure from above and below” to achieve the extremist's objectives. For example, the report outlines an “Inside strategy” in which Soros minions seek to “better engage law enforcement and governmental leadership.” This is also known as “lobbying,” or pressure from above.  
Then there is what the document calls the “Outside strategy” in which Soros showers money on fake grassroots efforts to create the appearance of public support for Soros' extremist anti-police, anti-liberty, anti-American agenda. “Another layer of grassroots and youth-oriented groups like Freedom Side, Ferguson Action, Black Lives Matter, and Million Hoodies Movement for Justice are also advocating for specific reforms,” the document explained. Another Soros document shows Soros provided $650,000 to “invest in technical assistance and support for the groups at the core of the burgeoning #BlackLivesMatter movement.” And that is just the tip of the iceberg. The Washington Times recently reported that more than $33 million in grants to the Black Lives Matter moverment comes from Soros' Open Society Foundations.
In addition to Soros and Obama, the UN has also joined the effort to fundamentally transform America by, among other schemes, nationalizing America's police departments. “The Civil Rights Division of the [U.S.] Department of Justice has provided oversight and recommendations for improvement of police services in a number of cities with consent decrees,” the UN “Special Rapporteur” from Kenya said after a ludicrous UN “investigation” of the United States. “This is one of the most effective ways to reduce discrimination in law enforcement and it needs to be beefed up and increased to cover as many of the 18,000-plus local law enforcement jurisdictions.”
Close Obama confidant and radical race hustler Al Sharpton, who was caught on film urging supporters to start “offing the pigs,” has called for the same measures. Speaking last year amid establishment efforts to encourage a race war, Sharpton said the Justice Department should “take over policing in this country.” However, the controversial figure, who owes millions in taxes but regularly visits the Obama White House, acknowledged that “we’re going to have to fight states’ rights.”
Other revelations from the recently hacked documents show that Soros, like the UN and Obama, has been using his money to assault the constitutionally protected rights of Americans. Among other rights in Soros' crosshairs are gun rights, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the right to self-government, and more. He has also been exposed recently trying to corrupt Christianity, buy support from Catholic bishops in the United States, promote abortion in Catholic countries, and flood the Western world with Islamic “refugees” from globalist-fueled wars in the Middle East.  
Americans and their elected officials must resist the efforts of Soros and his globalist allies in the Obama administration to take over state and local police departments. That can be accomplished by supporting your local police, and keeping them independent from federal control. Of course, that means local officials must refuse to take federal bribes with strings attached. But American liberty and constitutional self-government may well depend on making sure that the out-of-control federal government is never able to hijack control of Americans' law-enforcement agencies.

GREG LAURIE'S CONTINUING SLIDE INTO APOSTASY

GREG LAURIE'S CONTINUING SLIDE INTO APOSTASY 
BY JEFF MAPLES

Greg Laurie has been a prominent figure in Christendom for quite some time. He is the senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, CA, one of the largest churches in America. Many have touted him as being the next Billy Graham. In the likeness of Billy Graham’s crusades, Laurie has invested endless efforts in his Harvest Crusades since the early 1990’s, reaching audiences in the hundreds of thousands at every event. Laurie’s popular style of watered-down preaching and making the adulterated Word of God more palatable to the world has helped his empire grow tremendously, and transform Laurie into a celebrity.
As with nearly all celebrity Christian luminaries, there comes a time when the message they deliver has become so devoid of any convicting biblical substance that nearly anyone, whether they profess Christ or not, will be lured in by their seductive charisma. Their following essentially becomes a cult of personality, and their notoriety gains them indiscriminate immunity from nearly all criticism.
Pulpit & Pen recently brought you the follow-up statistics from Greg Laurie’s crusades. Among the thousands of people touted to “make decisions” for Jesus at these gatherings, only 3 to 6 percent of them show any fruits of salvation one year later. Why could this be?Phil Johnson from Grace to You says that Greg Laurie’s current associations are representative of his theological drift, and that his “doctrinal boundaries are so hazy that there’s hardly any variety of popular religion or spiritual chicanery that he won’t align himself with, as long as it calls itself ‘Christian,’ and gains a large following.”
This statement couldn’t be more accurate. Perhaps one of the most spiritually dangerous assemblages of professing Christians this year will be The GatheringThe Gathering is described as a “National Solemn Assembly to unite the Body of Christ in America — all believers, regardless of race, age, or denomination — in prayer for forgiveness, wisdom, and provision for our nation.”
But see, here’s the problem, and what makes this event especially dangerous. The Gathering is filled with many popular names that are accepted in mainstream evangelical circles. Most of these compromised celebrities will speak a little bit of truth mixed with error. They are the bridge between true Christianity and blatantly false Christianity. They are the seducers, who deceive even the elect if that were possible (Matthew 24:24). They are the ones that many sincere but undiscerning followers of Christ will be drawn away by because their books and materials are promoted in their churches.
Many popular names like former Southern Baptist President, Ronnie Floyd, Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of Billy Graham, former ERLC president, Richard Land, the wildly popular Benham Brothers, NAR Apostle Samuel Rodriguez, Word of Faith pastor of Gateway Church, Robert Morris, and other compromisers such as Jack Graham, James Robison, Kay Arthur and Priscilla Shirer….and Greg Laurie.
There are two possibilities here. Either Greg Laurie is so undiscerning that he has no idea that this event is filled with false teachers, Gospel-compromisers, and self-promoting charlatans or he is well aware of their works and sees nothing wrong with them.
The latter is more plausible.
Of course, being praised as “one of the greatest evangelists alive,” by one of the greatest con artists alive, Steven Furtick, is quite telling. Of course, Laurie returns the favor,promoting the arch-heretic, Steven Furtick’s Scripture-denying bookCrash the Chatterbox, on Twitter.
Laurie is an ecumenist–that is, he wants to tear down doctrinal divides between professing Christians and see them join hands under a superficial unity. Laurie took it upon himself to pronounce former presidential candidate, Marco Rubio, saved, even though Rubio unashamedly made it clear that he was fully theologically and doctrinally aligned with the Roman Catholic church. And one of Laurie’s associate pastors, Jeff Lasseigne, claims he has asked Christianity’s greatest enemy of all time, the pope, to pray the upcoming Crusades, while jokingly tapping a bobble-head statue of the pope that he has on display in his office.
Greg Laurie has admitted to involving Roman Catholic churches in his crusades. He recently gave the stage to sedevacantist (SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedevacantism) Roman Catholic, Mel Gibson, to promote his upcoming movie. Laurie and his associates at Harvest do not see the damning doctrinal error that the false church of Rome adheres to. With Greg Laurie, it isn’t about sound doctrine and a solid Gospel message that saves–it’s about “filling the stadiums with youth” to “bring about revival.” It’s a numbers game. It’s about “uniting denominations” into a single, watered-down, inoffensive, ear-tickling, man-pleasing entertaining religion of harmonious solidarity.
It’s this doctrinal shift and slide into apostasy that has caused John MacArthur to withdraw his endorsement from the Harvest Crusades. Laurie has stopped preaching the full counsel of God. He does not distinguish himself from other false teachers or distance his message from other false gospels. He has accumulated for himself teachers to suit his own passions (2 Tim 4:3). He is building the false kingdom, and preparing the way for the harlot church to flourish. His gate is very wide, and wide is the gate that leads to destruction (Matthew 7:13). The charismatic persona of this man is very seductive and enticing–having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power (2 Tim 3:5). Those who follow him down his path, be warned, it’s not a safe path.
For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. – Jude 1:4

It seems like hardly a week of digital life passes in which I’m not electronically alerted to either the fabulous news that I’ve won the lottery from a small African nation I’ve never visited, or with condolences on the loss of a very wealthy, but otherwise kin-less, relative in Nigeria. “We regret your loss but you are the sole survivor. Please submit your bank account and financial institute’s routing number so we may remit your inheritance.”
Obviously, the spam filter doesn’t always work.  Scams get through.
A lady in Texas, however, recently discovered yet another pathetic, if not laughable, scam during a Facebook encounter with “Pastor Joel Osteen.” The Christian Post reports that she received a message inquiring about whether she “was a true Christian, and did she believe in the Christ Jesus.”
Her positive response to the unsolicited online query resulted in the tremendous offer of a financial windfall from “Pastor Joel Osteen.” (Well, he is sorta like the Bill Gates of false teachers. His net worth is over $50 million and his house … well, it ain’t in my ‘hood!)
joel-osteens-house-1
If the lady would first merely remit her own funds to an obscure orphanage in Delaware, the pastor would then reward her financial faithfulness with a $35,000 windfall from a recent “big Texas donor” that had “gifted Osteen Ministries.”
Well, that dawg didn’t hunt. The online scammer impersonating the pulpit scammer failed in the attempt. The Facebook account was subsequently deleted.
Lakewood Church, in response to the “Your Best Scam Now” attempt, issued this statement.
“Unfortunately, there are some on social media who masquerade as charitable organizations for the purpose of fraudulently seeking donations. We take this matter seriously and believe it is important for people to know that Lakewood Church never contacts individuals through social media for the purpose of soliciting donations.”
Uh, yeah, okay.  Joel Osteen talking about masquerading is about as jocularly credible as my African lottery win.  But anyway …
According to the article, the diligent policing by Lakewood Church to protect the integrity of the social media presence of Joel and Victoria resulted in the removal of “around 17,000 fake accounts within the last three years.” They hired “an outside firm” just to ensure the digital authenticity of the “church’s” two otherwise inauthentic “pastors.”

And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.   (Romans 1:28-31)
Look, it’s a shame that such scammers exist, but a fallen world, hurtling ever more rapidly towards depravity, makes it a Biblically-forewarned reality. The idolatrous worship of money will drive the greedy and ruthless to exhibit absolutely no shame before God or man in pursuing, by any means possible, the acquisition of their god. They will lie, cheat, and steal from anyone and everyone.  Consciences seared, and likely “given up by God,” (Romans 1:24) they emulate the evil one, roaming the earth, (1 Peter 5:8) driven by pride and greed in their selfish efforts to deceive.
The unknowing and unsuspecting targets, if successfully deceived by the scammer, think they are engaging in noble, even Christian, behavior by participating with them, all the while they are being duped by a greedy agent of evil posing as an arbiter of hope.
That slick-talking, hope promising scammer should be ashamed. It’s egregious deception. Scripture condemns those who practice such things and commands believers to be discerning and alert to them.  It’s ungodly and unrighteous. It’s the fruit of an unregenerate soul to attempt to deceive others for worldly gain.
I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. For your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil.  Romans 16:17-19
As Paul advises, such smooth talking flatterers must be repelled by true believers and exposed for their “unfruitful works of darkness.” (Ephesians 5:11)  People should avoid such deceivers and refuse their enticing pleas and false promises of hope and help.  A “repent and believe” Gospel presentation is the proper response for such a scammer …
and that goes not only for Joel Osteen …  it goes for that Facebook scammer too. 
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. (Matthew 7:15-16)

ROMAN CATHOLICISM: POPE CANONIZING THE DAMNED, THIS TIME MOTHER TERESA SEPTEMBER 4, 2016

ROMAN CATHOLICISM:

On Sunday, September 4, 2016, Pope Francis will oversee a papal mass and canonization service for Mother Teresa. Upon completion, she will be known as Saint Teresa of Calcutta to millions of Roman Catholics and affectionate adorers worldwide.  The event falls on the anniversary eve of her death 19 years ago.
There can be little doubt that this woman who was worshipped in life won’t become second only to Mary in idolatrous worship upon the full pronouncement of her sainthood by the throne-sitting apostate vicar of the Tiber.
Untitled-3
Many already worship at the relics of Teresa, including a worn pair of her sandals.
While for deceived Roman Catholics Teresa may become a false heavenly intercessor, usurping the role of Christ, for those who know and believe God in His revelation of Scripture, she will be known as the damned follower of an apostate religion that denies the sufficiency of Christ, His Sacred Word, and His sufficient, atoning work. Far from serving as a meritorious icon of faithfulness, she should be seen for what she was during her life, and in her death – an unregenerate soul facing the wrath of God.  Apart from solus Christus, good works, like evil ones, are damning.
But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.  Titus 3:4-7
Barring her unlikely deathbed recantation of her idolatrous worship of Mary and the hopeful salvific benefit of her works-righteousness, universalistic theology, to instead embrace salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, Teresa is not worthy of emulation, mythification, or sanctification. She is not a saint in death because she was not a saint in life. By the grace of Christ alone, through the gift of faith (Ephesians 2:8) one is made a saint, not through Mary, not the pope, not legions of other such canonized idols of an apostate religion, not through a lifetime of good works.
The popular mythology that has built up around Teresa, who entered into missionary service as a result of hearing, on multiple occasions, the “voice” of Jesus directing her, as well as receiving visions from him, has come under practical scrutiny by numerous detractors. (See HEREHEREHERE) Christopher Hitchens, notorious as one of the four horsemen of “new” atheism, produced perhaps (unsurprisingly) the most inflammatory (to Teresa’s advocates) expose on the question-evoking aura surrounding this “saint of the gutters.”
A review of Teresa from 2013 reported that Canadian researchers “trawled through 96 per cent of all originally researched literature on the Catholic icon and concluded that her reputation as one of the holiest women of the twentieth century was the product of hype. Researchers allege missing funds for humanitarian work and homes for the poor that did not offer the medical care they required, leaving many to die.”  (Source; Also seeMother Teresa Humanitarian Image ‘A Myth,’ New Study Says from the Huffington Post)
In an article in Slate magazine upon Pope John II’s beatification of Teresa in 2003 – the first step towards official Roman Catholic sainthood – Hitchens commented on Teresa’s well-publicized brushes with ethical responsibility.
MT was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction. And she was a friend to the worst of the rich, taking misappropriated money from the atrocious Duvalier family in Haiti (whose rule she praised in return) and from Charles Keating of the Lincoln Savings and Loan. Where did that money, and all the other donations, go? The primitive hospice in Calcutta was as run down when she died as it always had been—she preferred California clinics when she got sick herself—and her order always refused to publish any audit. (Source: Slate)
While Hitchens had the obvious atheist axe to grind, his assessment of Teresa’s failures to actually alleviate suffering and minimize poverty are well noted beyond merely the sphere of disgruntled atheists. (See HERE or HERE or HERE or HERE or HERE orHERE ) It’s telling that a Calcutta newspaper, following Teresa’s death, occurring just a few days after the death of Princess Diana, featured a headline, “Numbed by Diana’s death, Calcutta fails to mourn for Teresa.”  (Source)

The obvious concerns relate to the alleged massive amounts of donations her Missionaries of Charity received, receipts the order itself seemed to show absent in its subsequent ministry. Lacking transparency, the order publishes no financial statements, though, as reported by the German magazine Stern, one former sister claims she saw a New York bank account for the order with over $50 million on deposit.  Other funds were deposited with the Vatican Bank.
The Keating Savings and Loan scandal from the 1980’s found Teresa rushing to the hopeful aid of Charles Keating, a benefactor to her order to the tune of $1.25 million. She wrote presiding Judge Lance Ito a glowing letter of endorsement on behalf of Keating. When the district attorney responded to advise that the $1.25 million she received was from stolen funds, communication from the “Mother” suddenly ceased. She kept the cash.

(For more on the financial deeds of Teresa’s organization, see this report by Forbes Magazine.)
The charge that Teresa loved poverty, not the poor – which may be substantiated by her failure to use her sizable donations to actually alleviate some of their poverty and provide adequate treatment for their sickness – might be best judged by her own words in response to the criticism elicited by the Hitchens expose:
“There is something beautiful in seeing the poor accept their lot, to suffer it like Christ’s Passion. The world gains much from their suffering.”  Mother Teresa
Multiple accounts regarding the wretched condition of her missions of mercy attest to deplorable, unsanitary conditions -accounts widely available upon even a superficial search – seem remarkably ironic and uncharitable given the hundreds of millions of dollars her “charity” was known to rake in.
“At the time of her death, Mother Teresa had opened 517 missions welcoming the poor and sick in more than 100 countries. The missions have been described as “homes for the dying” by doctors visiting several of these establishments in Calcutta. Two-thirds of the people coming to these missions hoped to a find a doctor to treat them, while the other third lay dying without receiving appropriate care. The doctors observed a significant lack of hygiene, even unfit conditions, as well as a shortage of actual care, inadequate food, and no painkillers. The problem is not a lack of money–the Foundation created by Mother Teresa has raised hundreds of millions of dollars.”  (Source)
Teresa’s iconic image as a humanitarian was perhaps only second to her consistent pro-life stands.  Across numerous, highly public platforms, she placed a priority on speaking against abortion.  While the issue was prominently featured in her Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech in 1979, perhaps her most pithy pro-life moment came during her meeting with then First Lady Hillary Clinton in 1994.
3c71438ded7898d3d2692796425f404e
When Clinton inquired of her why she might think America had not yet had a female president, Teresa quipped, “Because she has probably been aborted.”  (Source) Teresa’s anti-abortion message at the National Prayer Breakfast event earlier found the Clintons declining to share in the standing ovation she received.
Proclaiming good works and pro-life messages may be noble and sound Christian, but, for Teresa, represented the expression of a false religion based on works.  Her proclamations were necessarily void of the Gospel message she herself did not know or profess. Discounting the enemy of our Lord as the “god of this world,” (2 Corinthians 4:4) Teresa placed abortion as the greatest destroyer on earth, rather than the “father of lies.” (John 8:44)
“Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. This is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion.”  Mother Teresa
Regardless of the veracity of Teresa’s temporal entanglements and practical disregard for the care of the sick and dying – of which many claims seem to prove out – the fundamental problem with her is not merely the mythic image of a pro-life, social justice, humanitarian that has built up around her. Authentic humanitarian or not, the problem with Teresa is theological.
The problem is her damning, diabolical theology, borne out of the apostasy of the false teachings of Roman Catholicism. Even granting the heaping of good and noble humanitarian works on her diminutive shoulders, disregarding the critics who decry what they see as her callous disregard for charity and practical human aid, and lauding her for an agreeable pro-life agenda – none of which save or take priority over the Gospel -Teresa’s religion was thoroughly man-centered and idolatrous.   It exuded paganism, idolatry, and universalism.
Even Catholics ought to find themselves jaw-droppingly indignant at her “we never try to convert to Christianity” words from her book Life In The Spirit: Reflections, Meditations, and Prayers:
“We never try to convert those who receive [aid] to Christianity but in our work we bear witness to the love of God’s presence and if Catholics, Protestants, Buddhists, or agnostics become for this better men — simply better — we will be satisfied. It matters to the individual what church he belongs to. If that individual thinks and believes that this is the only way to God for her or him, this is the way God comes into their life — his life. If he does not know any other way and if he has no doubt so that he does not need to search then this is his way to salvation.”  Mother Teresa
Perhaps taking the attributed quote of Saint Francis of Assisi to a hyper, albeit unscriptural, extreme – “Share the gospel … if necessary, use words” – Teresa’s behavior might seem noble for advocates of a pure social justice gospel, but her words indicate a profoundly anti-Christian position. Teresa was a universalist.
Her universalism seems played out within her oft-lauded order of nuns. In his article, The Myth of Mother Teresa, Tim Challies cites the account of a nun of Teresa’s order who responded to a question about what they tell the sick and dying to prepare them for death and eternity. “We tell them to pray to their Bhagwan, to their gods.”
Challies notes three theologically pernicious quotes from Teresa:
“I’ve always said we should help a Hindu become a better Hindu, a Muslim become a better Muslim, a Catholic become a better Catholic.”
“I love all religions. … If people become better Hindus, better Muslims, better Buddhists by our acts of love, then there is something else growing there.”
“All is God — Buddhists, Hindus, Christians, etc., all have access to the same God.”
The discerning believer in the one true God who has revealed Himself in Scripture will recognize the diabolical influence of such quotes. They represent nothing short of the spirit of the age, deceiving the globe with a “many ways to heaven” malodorous theology. But, it’s a theology we’ve been warned against, by our Lord.  He called it the “wide path.” (Matthew 7:13). And Teresa, in her own words, lauded that path.
Other words of Teresa reveal her universalistic, social justice, and works righteousness theology, as well. Often infused with mysticism, they reverberate with the false, damning “God loves everyone” theme. Her idolatrous worship of Mary is also evident.
“There are so many religions and each one has its different ways of following God.”
We’d refer, again, to Matthew 7:13-14.  Christ makes clear the two paths.  His entire incarnate ministry made clear that He, alone, is “the way, the truth, and the life.”  (John 14:6) Sorry, Teresa, but there are no “different ways” that will keep you on the narrow path.  It’s Christ alone.
“Whether one is Hindu or a Muslim or a Christian, how you live your life is proof that you are or not fully His. We cannot condemn or judge or pass words that will hurt people. We don’t know in what way God is appearing to that soul and what God is drawing that soul to; therefor, who are we to condemn anybody?”
This sounds like the typical post-modern unbeliever today.  The strain of mystical, personal relativism is evident.  As far as “condemning anybody,” apart from Christ, they are “condemned already.”  (John 3:18)  Teresa’s failure to know and share His authentic Gospel was complicit in keeping them, and herself, in that state of condemnation.
“When a poor person dies of hunger, it has not happened because God did not take care of him or her. It has happened because neither you nor I wanted to give that person what he or she needed.”
While good works are a result of authentic regeneration, Teresa’s social justice gospel was all social justice and no gospel.  To alleviate suffering – to the extent she did that – apart from sharing the truth of Christ’s good news is to merely make the “already condemned” a bit more temporally comfortable while they otherwise are being launched into wrath.
“Before you speak, it is necessary for you to listen, for God speaks in the silence of the heart.”
Mysticism … again.  God speaks, to be sure, but He does it in His Word.
“A clean heart is a free heart. A free heart can love Christ with an undivided love in chastity, convinced that nothing and nobody will separate it from his love. Purity, chastity, and virginity created a special beauty in Mary that attracted God’s attention. He showed his great love for the world by giving Jesus to her.”
The proclamation of the unfettered, undistinguishing, justice-free love of God is a common enough mantra of the Scripturally-illiterate, as common as Catholic’s pagan-like idol worship of images and statues of Mary (and other “saints”), accompanied by unbliblical incantations to her for intercession – but whereas the first is a false gospel, the latter is pure idolatry.  Of course, Rome changed the Ten Commandments so as to avoid that pesky “thou shalt not” that divinely precludes idol worship  (* See below for an explanation)
“Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in His love than in your own weakness.”
Smells like a Catholic version of ‘Your Best Life Now.”  Achieve great things!  God loves you!  Work and be blessed!  You can do it!
“Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.”
No.  While those whom Christ has chosen are united with Him, and His Spirit abides in us, (Galatians 2:20) the unregenerate have a singular relationship with Christ – with Him as sovereign judge.  While every knee will bow and tongue confess Him as Lord (Romans 14:11), only His redeemed will enjoy eternal fellowship with Him.  If not reminiscent of the prosperity gospel’s “little god” doctrine, this smacks also of the New Age, Eastern “god is in everything” philosophy, which, of course, is wrong, and damning.
“The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.”
If you spend a little bit of time consuming Scripture, then pausing to preview the unsaved world, you’ll realize the most glaring, evident need isn’t for someone to provide a salve of friendship and kindness for the lonely; it’s to do the ultimate kindness by sharing the Good News with them, praying that God will work powerfully through it to save them. (Romans 1:16)  Sin is the virulent, ubiquitous disease of the world, not loneliness, and the Gospel is the singular solution.
“I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.”
Umm, no.  No, she wasn’t.  Teresa’s errant theology nor her works, sans the authentic Gospel, did not represent God’s “love letter to the world.”  He’s no longer writing a letter.  We have Scripture.  Despite Rome’s denial of its authority, the canon of Scripture is closed, His special revelation complete.  Our greatest work, one we’re commanded to,(Matthew 28:19) is to share that message in actual words.  The Gospel is divine information, not a “hope they see it” charade game we play hoping the unregenerate will recognize it.  Good works are a result of our salvation and the ultimate good work is to share the Good News.
“There should be less talk; a preaching point is not a meeting point. What do you do then? Take a broom and clean someone’s house. That says enough.”
Please see the comment above.  Oh, and add Romans 10:14 …
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?
 When Francis canonizes Teresa before a crowd estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands in front of St. Peter’s Basilica, with millions more watching live from around the globe, there will, no doubt, be festive anticipation.  There will tears of joy, shouts of excitement and glee, and a celebratory atmosphere of awe throughout the crowd at the culmination of this woman’s rise within the Roman church.
But the spectacle to occur at the apostate Roman church on Sunday will pale in comparison to the one which Christ warned about.  It comes just a few verses after His admonition, “No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”  Luke 13:5
But he will say, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of evil!’ In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.  Luke 13:27-28
Don’t be deceived by those proclaiming salvation by anything other than, or in addition to, Christ alone.  God has deemed them, and their adherents, cursed.  Repent and believe in Christ alone.
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.  Galatian 1:8
* Regarding the alteration of God’s Word to accommodate Catholic idol worship, Mike Gendron, in his book Preparing For Eternity, explains:
“The Roman Catholic Church has removed portions of God’s Word from its Catechisms.  In the new Catechism of the Catholic Church, the second commandment of God has been removed.  The Vatican also divided the tenth commandment into two to replace the one they removed.  What Catholic practice is in violation of the second commandment?
“You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters under the earth.  (Exodus 20:4)
By deleting the second commandment from their catechism, what command has the Catholic Church broken?
“Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you.  (Deuteronomy 4:2)”
