As one who used to listen to PID as well as others of this ilk, I thank you for this type of exposition.

For years I spun in circles with this drivel and while I find the Gilbert’s to be very nice people, they are off in their doctrine.

I think that their peering into darkness should be lessened and should pray that te Lord would show them the light.

I’ll respond to Derek’s comments separately in another post, as well as the comments of David Endsley there.

The Rothschild agents did a good job of getting the Scofield bible into the hands of every Christian, thereby replacing the KJV! Did you know that Scofield and Moody were very close friends? Moody is responsible for starting the apostate “sinners prayer” altar call, which has filled our churches with unsaved people who have only “accepted Jesus” into their hearts, but have never repented!

BTW, Sharon Gilbert removed the sun worship article from her web site and Derek wrote a blog about it. In case you didn’t see it, I’ll copy it here (I think he’s refering to you when he mentions “believers who devote themselves to the study of prophecy”:

Clarification on the Blessing of the Sun

Posted by Derek On May – 30 – 2009

On our last P.I.D. Radio show, Sharon and I discussed a short piece she’d written about the Birchat Hachama, a Jewish celebration that occurs once every 28 years to mark the return of the sun to its original position during Creation. This year, it occurred on Passover — for only the third time in history.

The previous two times, according to Jewish tradition, were the year before the Exodus and the first day of Esther’s fast before the miracle of Purim (the Persian decree to kill all Jews was annulled later that year).

But when believers who devote themselves to the study of prophecy misunderstand us, we obviously didn’t make our point clear.

We did not and would never attribute prophetic authority to anything but scripture. We simply mentioned this historic event as another data point to consider while analyzing the big picture.

Now, there is a spirit at work in assigning importance to any specific sign or date. It’s entirely possible that the enemy, which knows scripture better than any of us, has attached significance to this year’s Blessing of the Sun (just as it has with the year 2012) to distract us from the core issue of sin and salvation.

That doesn’t mean we should ignore the event. At the very least, we should be aware that the enemy may use it to deceive others who are looking for a false Messiah. That point wasn’t made clear during the show, and for that I apologize.

But please don’t interpret that error as somehow endorsing the event or basing our doctrine on it. From the whole of the work we’ve produced at P.I.D. Radio and our websites, our position should be clear. Salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.

While I remain a futurist in terms of prophecy, I find the historicist views do keep me grounded by not attempting to throw everything, prophetically, at the last days—prophecy WAS fulfilled in70 AD.

The views of the rapture cult are EXACTLY what Satan planned in using his human agents, the Jesuits, the Darbys and Moodys, and the Jewish money powers of the Rothchilds.

The nexus of Rome, Britain, and Jerusalem form the seed bed for the doctrines which now ooze from every corner of the rotting church system. The mystery of iniquity even now does work…tragic!

One thing that I also read was that Scofield was financed by some wealthy NY Jewish Zionists (one of them was Rothschild agent Jacob Schiff, whose grandson is married to Al Gore’s daughter btw)… they are the ones who paid to have the Scofield study bible printed by Oxford and then distributed all over the US because they knew that they could not get support for a Zionist State of Israel without the support of the Christians. Apparently it worked and now 100 years later noone questions dispensational theology or even knows that there are other ways to look at things. Seriously, does anyone ever look at Matthew 24 as having a historical fulfillment??

Keep up the good work. I enjoy listening to your broadcast.

I will add that the reason this article seems “hateful” is because the article in question is loaded with false doctrine. Not only rapture, but Jewish dispensationalism and Sharon Gilbert’s acceptance, even praise, of a custom which is patently un-Biblical and even idolotrous. Go ask Sharon Gilbert, as I did on her web page, where this practice of “Blessing The Sun” is found anywhere in scripture.

Likewise, I guess we could conclude that Jesus was also “hateful” when He rebuked the Jews in John 8?

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.”(John 8:44, 45)

I spent years just presenting the Biblical proofs against the rapture doctrine and was reviled, spit at, and accused of being blasphemous. Was that hateful? I still present the truths—just with more attitude. Take it or leave it. I love the truth. How about you?
