In mid-November, First Lady Laura Bush sent official Christmas cards to the Republican faithful in Texas. This Christmas card contained the official White House seal inside and well wishes from Mrs. Bush. However, the color picture inside was shocking! Inside the card contained a picture of what looked like a wall inside the Bush home. Hanging on the wall was a very large Phoenix Bird ! Note that this Phoenix Bird is facing to the right, which is the "good" side in the occult. Since President Bush is the leader of the "Christian Right", so we should expect this Phoenix Bird to look right.
For those of you who are not familiar with what the Phoenix Bird is, or why it is so Satanic, and what it means, we offer the information, below.
DEFINITION OF THE SATANIC PHOENIX BIRD AND POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS
![](http://www.cuttingedge.org/Phoenix_Bird_Fire2.jpg)
According to the Egyptian Satanic Mysteries, the Phoenix Bird lives for hundreds of years, and then deliberately kills itself; its body immediately catches fire and is burned to a heap of ashes. Immediately, a new Phoenix Bird arises out of the ashes to live again.
Did you know that the Guiding Spirits of our occultic Founding Fathers insisted to them that America's national bird was to be a Phoenix Bird? The first drawings these Founding Fathers produced were of the occult Phoenix Bird. However, they later changed the symbol to an American Bald Eagle, afraid that the public would recognize the Phoenix as the Satanic symbol it truly was -- and is!
America was established in 1776, a year that adds to a '21', to begin her national life, at the conclusion of which she was to physically return to ashes. Out of these ashes the new Phoenix was to arise, producing the final form of government, the global New World Order.
As you can see from these depictions, the Phoenix Bird may face either to the right or the left. Bear this fact in mind, for it will most be most important shortly.
PHOENIX BIRD SHOWN TO BE SYMBOL OF THE FALSE MESSIAH
The Phoenix Bird of Ancient Egypt is pure legend, but that does not keep Satanists from believing in its existence. Let us allow Masonic author, Manly P. Hall, 33 Degree, tell us about the legendary Phoenix Bird, a representative of the coming King Messiah !
"Among the ancients a fabulous bird called the Phoenix is described by early writers such as Clement, Herodotus, and Pliny; in size and shape it resembled the eagle, but with certain differences. The body of the Phoenix is one covered with glossy purple feathers and the plumes in its tail are alternately blue and red. The head of the bird is light in color, and about its neck is a circlet of golden plumage. At the back of its back the Phoenix has a crest of feathers of brilliant color. Only one of these birds was supposed to live at a time, with its home in the distant parts of Arabia, in a nest of frankincense and myrrh. The Phoenix, it is said, lives for 500 years, and at its death its body opens and the new born Phoenix emerges. Because of this symbolism, the Phoenix is generally regarded as representing immortality and resurrection." [Manly P. Hall, The Secret Destiny of America , 1958, p. 176-77; Emphasis added]
I find it highly interesting that this occultic legend, the Phoenix Bird, shares several things with the true story of the birth, life, and ministry of Jesus Christ. Let us quickly review these common points:
1) The Phoenix Bird lives in a nest of frankincense. In Luke 2:11-12, we see that the three Wise Men -- Magi -- brought Jesus myrrh and frankincense. Each of these substances has a distinct meaning in the ministry of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The "frankincense [indicates] Christ's priestly intercession" for mankind, according to the Defender's Bible Commentary. Therefore, to say that the Phoenix Bird lives in a nest containing frankincense portrays a Messiah type ministry for mankind, and one that involves spiritual "intercession".
2) The Phoenix Bird also has myrrh in his nest. "Myrrh [indicates] Christ's coming death" for all mankind, so people can be Justified before God the Father on the basis of Jesus' sacrificial death on the Cross. [Ibid.] Once again, we see that the Phoenix Bird legend carries another Messianic type ministry, a false one to be sure.
3) We see that, after his death, the Phoenix Bird arises to live anew . Thus, the Phoenix portrays a third Messianic type ministry, in that it arose again.
Therefore, this legend parallels Jesus' true life and ministry in three critically important areas, in His Spiritual Intercession, His Substitutionary Death for all mankind, and in His Resurrection.
This Messianic parallel is the reason the Masters of the Illuminati seized upon the Phoenix Bird as one of their symbols of the coming New World Order of Antichrist . Do not ever forget that this goal is paramount for the New World Order. They plan on staging the False Christ, whom we will know is Antichrist. The symbol of the Phoenix Bird perfectly fulfills their plan and can perfectly serve as the symbol of that Man of Perdition.
PHOENIX BIRD DEPICTS OCCULTIC VERSION OF BEING BORN AGAIN
But, now let us return to the occultic story of the Phoenix Bird.
"All symbols have their origin in something tangible, and the Phoenix is one sign of the secret orders of the ancient world, and of the initiate of those orders, for it was common to refer to one who had been accepted into the temples as a man twice-born, or re-born. Wisdom confers a new life, and those who become wise are born again ." [Hall, Ibid.; Emphasis added]
Isn't this amazing? The Phoenix Bird legend now has a fourth Messianic type connotation; it represents a man being "born again ". Always remember that most pagan groups, especially the most sophisticated ones, have deliberately created the myth that their members are "born again". When George Bush, Senior, was asked by Barbara Walters on a TV interview during the 1988 presidential election if he was a Christian, George stumbled, paused, and then said: "If by being a Christian, you mean, 'Born Again', then, yes, I am a Christian." I came straight out of my chair when I heard this reply, because I knew of the occult counterfeit of being "Born Again"; this statement just confirmed to me that George Bush, Senior, was an unrepentant Skull & Bones man, but too many Christians seized on his reply as "proof" that he was a Christian, when the facts were exactly the opposite. All during his presidency, George Bush, Senior, fulfilled the Illuminati plan exactly, especially when he announced that the world had entered the New World Order in his speech in August, 1990, as he addressed the American people on the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait.
PHOENIX BIRD SHOWN TO BE LUCIFER
Let us now hear more about the occult belief in the Phoenix Bird, from a former witch.
"The Phoenix ... is believed to be a divine bird going back to Egypt ... This Phoenix destroys itself in flames and then rises from the ashes. Most occultists believe that the Phoenix is a symbol of Lucifer who was cast down in flames and who they think will one day rise triumphant. This, of course, also relates to the rising of Hiram Abiff, the Masonic 'christ'." [Bill Schnoebelen, quoted by Dr. C. Burns, Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated , p. 123]
Lest you think this tie-in of the Phoenix Bird to Lucifer is one occultist's imagination, listen to Barbara Walker, a radical feminist. She says that the Egyptians and Phoenicians believed that the Phoenix Bird was the representation of a god who "rose to heaven in the form of a morning star, like Lucifer, after his fire-immolation of death and rebirth ..." [Walker, Now Is The Dawning ", p. 281]
Another Masonic author, revealed that the Sun God, who created all other gods, was symbolized by the Phoenix. [Joseph Fort Newton, The Builders: A Story and Study of Masonry, The Torch Press, 1914, p. 13-14; also J.S.M. Ward, The Hung Society or the Society of Heaven and Earth , The Baskerville, Press, Ltd., 1925, p. 44 and 102]
THE PHOENIX BIRD ATOP THE "HILLARY PIN"
In early 1998, Hillary Clinton and certain other women of President Clinton's Administration suddenly began sporting a Phoenix Bird pin, although this one was more stylish than the Bush Phoenix, above; further, Hillary's Phoenix was clutching a small white round ball representative of the earth. However, this Hillary Pin has the Phoenix Bird looking left, which means he is looking with evil; left is the evil side in the occult.
The Phoenix Bird is one of the foremost symbols of the Illuminati, according to former Satanists. Therefore, since Hillary Clinton was wearing this symbol, we can know conclusively that she is an Illuminist. Since this Illuminist lapel pin was worn by two people very close to President Bill Clinton, we can know for certain that he is an Illuminist, too. [This lapel pin was seen being worn by: Donna Shalala, Secretary of Health and Human Services and Bettie Currie, Clinton's Personal Secretary, see U.S. News & World Report, 2/9/98].
This lapel pin was also seen being worn by Conservative Republican Jeanne Kirkpatrick! In the 2000 Presidential Primaries, Senator John McCain's wife was boldly wearing a Hillary Phoenix Bird Pin as well [Reported in NEWS1354]. These facts demonstrate conclusively that both Democrats and Republicans, Liberals and Conservatives, are equally committed to the New World Order!
Now you are deceived no longer and you know the truth of what is really going on in Washington, D.C.
For most of the 20th Century, it has not mattered one whit for whom we voted for President; both Republican and Democrat candidates for most major offices were members of the Illuminati, either as members of the Council On Foreign Relations [CFR], or later, the Trilateral Commission, Skull & Bones, or Freemasonry, or a combination of the four. Thus, you have the spectacle of George W. Bush having just as many CFR men on his Cabinet as did Clinton! No matter which party controls our government at any one time, the Plan of the Great White Brotherhood continues on track and on schedule!
Now, you know the truth. Are you courageous enough to believe it?
PHOENIX BIRD SYMBOL IS BLACK MAGICK WITCHCRAFT SYMBOL -- OF ANTICHRIST
Antichrist is foretold to be a practitioner of Black Magick Witchcraft. Listen:
"... a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand;" [Daniel 8:23-25]
The words we have highlighted in red print tell the story; Antichrist will be a Black Magick practitioner. He will cause Witchcraft, also known as the craft , to prosper in the world. Witchcraft, of the most Black Magick variety possible, will be performed regularly at that church on Main and Elm, Anywhere, USA.
Antichrist will be a "king of fierce countenance". This means his demeanor will be brooding, and dark. To understand this Scripture, we need only look at Adolf Hitler. Hitler believed he was Antichrist, he was trained in the Black Arts just as Antichrist will be trained; he was embued with much of the same occult power as will Antichrist.
Please take a close look at this picture of Hitler. He was dressed in his Brown Nazi uniform, and in his glory as the head of the Nazi Party and of the spiritual leader of not only the Party, but also of the people. His spiritual leadership was as the head Shaman, or Witchdoctor, of the entire German people. Antichrist will also fulfill that role. Note how dark and brooding his facial countenance was. This is the type of fulfillment of Antichrist in Daniel 8, above.
Antichrist shall "understand dark sentences". This phrase means that he will have thorough command of the "dark rituals" of Black Magick Witchcraft, the kind of rituals designed to destroy one's enemies and take their lives. Hitler clearly held this kind of power and wielded it mightily. Antichrist will clearly possess this kind of power.
Further, Daniel 2 and 7, and Revelation 17 reveal that the 10 leaders who conspire to accumulate all the power of the world to themselves for the express purpose of handing it over to Antichrist, will be of the same spiritual nature as he. This means each of the 10 leaders will be Black Magick practitioners. Since NAFTA is Nation #1 in the 10-Nation New World Order Reorganization Plan, and George W. Bush is its undisputed leader, he must be expected to be a Black Magick practitioner. Bush's past and current participation in Skull & Bones certainly positions him well to be the kind of leader the Illuminati needs at this critical moment in history.
We believe the Laura Bush Phoenix Bird has now proven this point. Only a practicing occultist will send out an occult Phoenix Bird Christmas card.
SUMMARY
When Laura Bush sent this Christmas card to Republican faithful women in Texas, last November, she and her husband were sending a very strong signal that President George W. Bush is faithfully pursuing the global plans of the Illuminati. We can see evidences of this fact in many of George W.'s decisions and lack of decisions so far in his presidency. When Bush refused to countermand any of Clinton's Executive Orders -- especially those last-minute ones -- we knew the truth about George.
When George W. sent SWAT teams to forcibly shut down the Indianapolis Baptist Church, we knew the truth.
When George W. drew as many of his cabinet officers from the Illuminist CFR as did his Dad, and as did Clinton, we knew the terrible truth. [Read details in NEWS1451]
When George W. followed up the tragedy of 9/11 by faithfully following the Illuminati plan to take away civil liberties and weaken our Constitution, all in the name of "terrorism", we knew the truth. The New World Order plan for 9/11 was conceived a very long time ago: "As far back as 1917, secret societies were planning to invent an artificial threat ... to draw mankind into a global government they call the New World Order." [Bill Cooper, Behold A Pale Horse , p. 27]
When George W. faced the obelisk during his presidential inauguration speech, and used Illuminati code words, we knew the truth [NEWS1463 and NEWS1464].
When reports started appearing that the CIA was torturing prisoners of war in Afghanistan, and the FBI was "considering" torture here at home, we knew the truth about George W. [CIA report at Software Design, http://software.design.tripod.com/mirror/rift/rift.htm; FBI report at "The Times, UK", article entitled, "FBI considers torture as suspects stay silent", Monday, October 22, 2001].
When President Bush was asked about Skull & Bones during the presidential campaign, he had the perfect opportunity to thoroughly denounce it, repent of participating in it, and telling the world of its terrible plans. George W. not only did not repent, but made light of it [Time Interview, cnn.com, August 1, 2000; Read NEWS1596]
We have listed other articles on the spiritual and political fruit of George W. Bush in a section on the World War III page entitled, "Bush's Bitter Fruits". We encourage you to read it honestly and prayerfully, for it reveals the truth.
SPIRITUAL APPLICATION AT THE END OF THE AGE
Jesus warned us three times in Matthew 24 that THE Hallmark Characteristic of the End of the Age was going to be unparalleled spiritual deception [Verses 4, 11, and 24]. Certainly, we are seeing such spiritual deception today.
Jesus also told us that we are to "judge righteously". Listen to John 7:24, "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment." This verse is the answer from Scripture to the misquoting of Luke 6:37 and Matthew 7:1-2 so popular in Liberal circles today. To the contrary, Jesus commands us to "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment." [John 7:24]
The Amplified rendering states this command even more clearly: "Be honest in your judgment and do not decide at a glance (superficially and by appearances); but judge fairly and righteously." In other words, Jesus expects us to reach a judgment about a person, but not superficially, not by mere appearance only. By what measure are we then to "judge righteously"?
"Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." [Matthew 7:16-20]
What are the "good fruits" that we should see in a person's life? "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." [Galatians 5:22-23]
Paul then covers yet another aspect of good spiritual fruit. "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them. For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord." [Ephesians 5:6-10]
The Apostle Paul here is warning that a person can deceive you with mere "vain words". That deceptive person is speaking a good talk, but not "walking the walk". With George W., we see a lot of words, and a lot of mentioning "God", but very little mention of Jesus Christ, and virtually no spiritual fruits of Saving Faith.
Finally, we are told to "test the spirits to see if they come from God". "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world." [1 John 4:1]
Now, we see the Satanic Phoenix Bird depicted on Laura Bush's Christmas cards for Christmas, 2001! Truly, the unparalleled spiritual deception of the End of the Age is upon us. Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use it many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.
If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, but have been very lukewarm in your spiritual walk with Him, you need to immediately ask Him for forgiveness and for renewal. He will instantly forgive you, and fill your heart with the joy of the Holy Spirit. Then, you need to begin a daily walk of prayer and personal Bible Study.
If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, but have come to realize His reality and the approaching End of the Age, and want to accept His FREE Gift of Eternal Life, you can also do so now, in the privacy of your home. Once you accept Him as Savior, you are spiritually Born Again, and are as assured of Heaven as if you were already there. Then, you can rest assured that the Kingdom of Antichrist will not touch you spiritually.
