Dear Friends of �Dial Daily Bread�:
A new book has just been released by Pacific Press in which a perceptive author, Thomas Mostert, discerns some profound but unpopular truths. He sees that the popular but counterfeit versions of �Christianity� that the Bible labels �Babylon� are a dangerous yet subtle deception. He sees the words of Jesus as too true: �false christs, and false prophets...... shall...... if it were possible...... deceive the very elect� (Matt. 24:24). The book (HIDDEN HERESY) recognizes that even highly educated
ordained ministers are susceptible to exceedingly well-concealed falsehood. And it�s lethal!
A root deception of �Babylon� is the doctrine of natural immortality. Every non-christian religion teaches it, and many Roman Catholic and Protestant churches have imported it from paganism. If man is an immortal soul then it cannot be true that the Son of man died on His cross. But the Bible is clear--man is by nature mortal. �Babylon� says No. And there is where the alarm system goes off for anyone who reverences Bible truth.
Mostert�s grasp of it is like a blast of fresh air into a stuffy house: no one who holds to natural immortality can understand or appreciate what Christ accomplished on His cross! And no one who holds to that pagan-papal doctrine can comprehend justification by faith; and if one doesn�t understand that cardinal truth, he doesn�t hold what Paul calls �the truth of the gospel� (Gal. 2:5, 14). Church leaders, Protestant and Catholic, are alike under judgment of Scripture. Mostert sees that
confusion here creates a vacuum into which the falsehood of Spiritualism enters; why should we want to fill our cup with that? From now on, serious issues are to engage our attention. The same Jesus who prodded His disciples awake in Gethsemane is prodding us awake just now. Our �hour� is also critical in world history, as was Gethsemane�s!
