Parliament of the World’s Religions seeks understanding and action<\/h2>\n

August 11, 2023<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Anila Ali traces her interest in the interfaith movement to scripture.<\/p>\n

“God says in the Koran to Muslims,” she says, “I have created you into tribes\u2014different tribes\u2014so that you may get to know each other.” … “Islam came to liberate women. It was a modern, progressive religion. And a lot of the teachings have been stolen.”<\/p>\n

Stolen, she says, by religious radicals.<\/p>\n

“And I feel that it’s time we set the record straight,” Ali says.<\/p>\n

Part of setting the record straight is her participation in this year’s Parliament of the World’s Religions, which begins Sunday in Chicago. …<\/p>\n

The Parliament is one of the world’s largest inter-faith gatherings and comes at a time when belief is often seen as a force that divides. But its progressive organizers want to send a different message<\/p>\n

Some 10,000 participants from more than 80 countries and 200 religious traditions will convene in Chicago.<\/p>\n

The meeting has its origins back in 1893, when the first Parliament of the World’s Religions took place as part of the world’s fair known as the Columbian Exposition<\/a>. The gathering was held in what is now the Art Institute of Chicago and is viewed as the birth of the modern interfaith movement, which holds that different religions have something to learn from each other and can cooperate for the good of humanity. …<\/p>\n

Among this year’s participants is Michael Bernard Beckwith, founder of Agape International Spiritual Center<\/a> in Los Angeles, part of the New Thought movement. …<\/p>\n

This idea of a global ethic has its origins in the work of the Swiss theologian and Catholic priest Hans K\u00fcng. …<\/p>\n

The theme of this year’s Parliament is “A Call to Conscience: Defending Freedom and Human Rights.” It’s a call close to program chair Phyllis Curott’s heart.<\/p>\n

“We are we recognize that we are creating the world as we wish it to be,” she says.<\/p>\n

Curott is a Wiccan priestess, … it is sometimes difficult, says Parliament executive director Stephen Avino, for people to see the good that religions do given how people use faith to abridge the rights of others based on race, gender and sexual orientation.<\/p>\n

Depending on who wields it, Ali says, religious power can bring destruction or light.<\/p>\n

“It is also like fire.” https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2023\/08\/11\/1192525419\/parliament-of-the-worlds-religions-seeks-understanding-and-action<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The interfaith movement has many parts. It is good to peacefully cooperate with people, whether or not they share the same religion. However, much of what the interfaith movement pushes is opposed to the Bible as well as it tends to ignore the real God. Many in it, push condoning of sexual and other immorality that the Bible says should not be condoned (cf. Romans 1:18-32).<\/p>\n

Despite supposedly preaching tolerance, the interfaith movement wants to shut down aspects of religious and moral speech (e.g. see Interfaith leaders opposing LGBT conversion therapy<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Here is a video about the interfaith movement promoting sexual immorality:<\/p>\n

Interfaith movement pushing LGBTQ+ agenda<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Deutsche Welle<\/em> reported \u201cLGBT conversion therapy: Religious leaders call for ban to \u2018abhorrent\u2019 practice.\u201d 370 religious leaders around the world have declared their support for the LGBTQ+ agenda. They declare their support of the view of the World Health Organization that it is normal to not be cisgender heterosexual. They bemoan \u201cthat certain religious teachings have often, throughout the ages\u201d (like those of the Bible) have \u201ccaused \u2026 offense to those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex.\u201d The Global Interfaith Commission on LGBT+ Lives wants people to tell their religious leaders to sign a supportive \u201cGlobal Declaration.\u2019 Yet, this is in conflict with scripture. In this video, Dr. Thiel quotes scriptures from the Holy Bible that clearly oppose and condemn homosexuality, lesbianism, transgenderism, and male effeminacy. God is not the author of confusion. Dr. Thiel also quotes passages in the Bible where God warns what will happen to those who despise His statutes, abhors God\u2019s judgments, so that you do not perform all His commandments. Dr. Thiel also points to the totalitarian system the interfaith agenda is moving towards.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The interfaith movement tends to favor different commandments. Related to that, we put out the following video:<\/p>\n

Interfaith Beast Commandments?<\/a><\/h3>\n

On November 13, 2022, the Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development had a ceremony in Egypt where they laid out \u2018Ten Principles for Climate Repentance.\u2019 Then two tablets were tossed down and broken in the traditional area that Moses broke the tablets of the Ten Commandments at the base of Mt. Sinai. The \u2018breaker\u2019 had also given Newsweek a set of climate \u2018Ten Commandments\u2019 in August of 2022. Furthermore, in the Spring of 2022, Ecumenical News and the World Council of Churches reported about a set of digital \u2018Ten Commandments,\u2019 which, while a mixture of good and evil, condoned sin. Are these actions helping to set the stage for the Beast who will change times and law (Daniel <\/span>7:25<\/a>)? Will the coming Beast and Antichrist promote the breaking God\u2019s Ten Commandments? Are the ecumenical and interfaith movements moving in that direction? Would actually keeping God\u2019s Ten Commandments solve weather matters that are blamed on \u2018climate change\u2019? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel address these matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video: Interfaith Beast Commandments?<\/a><\/p>\n

Notice the following:<\/p>\n

14 ‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not observe all these commandments,
\n15 and if you despise My statutes, or if your soul abhors My judgments, so that you do not perform all My commandments, but break My covenant,
\n16 I also will do this to you:
\nI will even appoint terror over you, wasting disease and fever which shall consume the eyes and cause sorrow of heart. (Leviticus 26:14-16)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The interfaith movement clearly abhors God’s judgments, despises the word of God, and His standards of morality. We have seen terror and a waste causing disease (COVID)–but a more totalitarian form of terror is coming (Revelation 13)–and the interfaith movement is inadvertently pushing towards it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Vatican has long been pushing aspects of the interfaith agenda, including the promotion of items that are associated with paganism (see Vatican continues to promote interfaith agenda, including \u201cAmazonian religion\u2019 paganism<\/a>). The Vatican also is working towards various plans with the Muslims (see \u2018The Catholic-Muslim Interfaith Council Created By Pope Francis Announces New Chrislam Headquarters Opening In 2022\u2019<\/a>). Protestants and many others also are supporting related aspects of this (e.g. CT: Global Church is experiencing an \u2018ecumenical emergency\u2019; CNA: Anglicans recognize Pope as \u2018father of the Church in the West,\u2019 says archbishop of Canterbury<\/a> and Pope Francis and WCC pushing interfaith agenda<\/a>).<\/p>\n

A forced religion is to come upon the world per Revelation 13. It, in my view, will have many aspects of the interfaith and ecumenical agenda that the Vatican, the United Nations, and the World Council of Churches has been promoting.<\/p>\n

The religious should realize that the Bible opposes the interfaith agenda:<\/p>\n

\n
14<\/span> Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? <\/span>15<\/span> And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? <\/span>16<\/span> And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.\u201d <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
17<\/span> Therefore <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cCome out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.\u201d (2 Corinthians 6:14-17)
\n<\/span><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Real Christians are NOT to support the interfaith plans.<\/p>\n

Do not be deceived by it or the emerging interfaith agenda.<\/p>\n

It will not bring the type of peace and cooperation it publicly hopes for.<\/p>\n

For that, we need the return of Jesus and the Kingdom of God<\/a>.<\/p>\n
