Bind Them
03:48

|
In this millennial dawning
brand new morning
we still see the darkness from the night before...
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
Ecumenicals unite in despairing
Status quo attempt at maintaining
they see the end and this is the beginning
bind them in bundles for burning
Wheat to the barn have been gathering
''well done'' is what they are hearing
but the tares tied up in false teaching
bind them in bundles for burning
Anglican, Lutheran, Episcopalian, bind them in bundles for burning
Roman, Unitarian, Presbyterian, bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
solo
When the powers of the heavens are shaking
leadership of Christendom is failing
symbolically the earth is melting
bind the in bundles for burning
New heavens and a New earth
benevolent dictator brings them to birth
the old world order has proven a dearth
bind them in bundles for burning
Anglican, Lutheran, Episcopalian, bind them in bundles for burning
Roman, Unitarian, Presbyterian, bind them bind them!
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them bind them
Wheat have received their testing
time for the nominal system judging
the tares are separating
harvest time is overlapping
bind them! bind them! bind them!
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them bind them!
The image of the beast is forming
false prophet of the apocalypse revealing
to lose their foundation they are willing
so the Lord prophesied their binding!
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Bind them in bundles for burning
It's the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning
Yeah!

Thefts of the Spirit
04:15
|
|||
|
APOSTLES
There were only 12
and there were never to be any more than that
you can read it for yourself
Modern PROPHETS
predictions unerring?
yet prophecy means only to expound the Word
not fortune telling
many TEACHERS
spreading vicious lies
but if they only had the holy spirit of God
they might become wise
Thefts of the Spirit
are what we see today
thieves making claims
with ambitious aims
they won't get away
gifts of HEALING
we don't see today
faith healers never hit up hospitals
because they're not who they say
conjure up a MIRACLE
just to have a little faith
I thought we were not supposed to walk by sight
but by "the Lord saith"
words of WISDOM
KNOWLEDGE from above
we don't see them often as they're meant to be
reflections of love
Thefts of the Spirit
are what we see today
thieves making claims
with ambitious aims
they won't get away
DISCERNING spirits
so misunderstood
painting righteousness as heresy
while calling evil good
TONGUES of fire
long since abated
and back then they didn't talk in gobbledygook
and always translated
EVANGELISM
like the old Pharisees
they seek to convert you to their own destruction
traversing land and seas
Thefts of the Spirit
are what we see today
thieves making claims
with ambitious aims
they won't get away

SENT
04:52
|
|||
|
Sent by God Almighty!
Jesus never claimed to be God
just the Son of God
it's written down in black and white
he gave all the credit to his Father
he was not a robber
they're just not hearing him right [Philippians 2:5-7]
Nowhere in the Bible is a "trinity"
3 in 1 divinity
of pagan origin
"Hear O Israel the Lord is One"
and He has a son
to call the Son the Father is sin [Mark 12:28-34]
Trinity, 3 persons of divinity, Plato's philosophy
this is what they're telling me to believe
Jesus never made the most unreasonable boast
that he was his own God, while he was a holy ghost
Jesus was SENT.... by a Higher up Somebody
Jesus was SENT... he was sent for you and me
Jesus said "My Father is greater than I" [John 14:28]
the Son didn't lie
but they don't believe what he said
they'd rather make him out to be a god/man
that's not the divine plan
for only a man could end up dead [Isaiah 53:12]
They say they don't understand it but believe it
well I want to understand it
that's why we're given intellect
they say one God's 3 different people
underneath their steeple
where simple reasoning is wrecked
Trinity, 3 persons of divinity, Plato's philosophy
this is what they're telling me to believe
Jesus never made the most unreasonable boast
that he was his own God, while he was a holy ghost [repeat]
He was SENT by God Almighty!
Jesus called himself "anointed"
meaning one appointed
for which he lived in infamy
ministers call him God Almighty
however not rightly
to anoint "the Most High" is blasphemy
Perfect Adam's corresponding price [I Cor 15:21-22]
our Ransom sacrifice [I Timothy 2:5-6]
he was SENT to be a perfect man [Hebrews 5:8-10]
balancing the scales of divine justice [Romans 5:14-19]
he was one just like us [Hebrews 4:14-15]
not a goat nor god fulfilled the plan [Deut 21:19]
Trinity, 3 persons of divinity, Plato's philosophy
this is what they're telling me to believe
Jesus never made the most unreasonable boast
that he was his own God, while he was a holy ghost [repeat]
No he was SENT.

Judgment Day
04:42
|
|||
|
Let the heavens rejoice! and let the earth be glad:
let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein:
then shall all of the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord:
for He cometh to judge the earth [Psalm 96:11-13]
He shall judge the world with righteousness
and the people with His Truth
and there shall be signs in the sun and in the moon and in the stars
and upon the earth distress of nations with perplexity
the sea and the waves roaring, men's hearts failing them for fear
and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth
it shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah,
in the Day of Judgment than for that city [Luke 21:25,26 & Matt 10:15]
Fire and brimstone, earthquake and hail
not upon the people, the systems fail
[Chorus]
The Great Day of the Lord is near,
it is near and hasteth greatly
even the voice of the day of the Lord,
the mighty man shall cry bitterly
That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress
a day of waste and desolation, darkness and gloominess...
of clouds and thick darkness... of the trumpet and alarm
neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them...
the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy [Zeph 1:14-18]
Fire and brimstone, earthquakes and hail
not upon the people, but the systems fail
Present distress, uncertain developments
Judgment Day is here for the worldly governments
a great blessing to all peace loving
out of every nation, race and religion
Judgment Day is only for the wicked to be dreading
ending their oppression
[Chorus]
Gather yourselves together yea gather together
O nations that have no shame
before the decree bring forth
before the day pass as the chaff
before the fierce anger o f the Lord come upon you
before the Day of the Lord's anger come upon you
seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth which have wrought His judgment
Seek righteousness! Seek meekness!
It may be ye shall be hid in the Day of the Lord's anger [Zeph 2:1-3]
[Chorus]
Fire, brimstone, earthquakes and hail
not upon the people, not upon the people, but the systems fail!

Eyes of Faith
04:52
|

|
Through the eyes of faith
I can see
The ever brightening golden lining
Behind every cloud
Through the eyes of faith
I hold fast and dear to me
The great and precious promises
To be like our Lord
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
I see precious promises
Of a world without end
And a cloudless sky where I can see
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
I can see
The end of all the tears we're crying
Because of the fall
Through the eyes of faith
I can cast off fear and be
Just like father Abraham
And follow the Lord
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
I see precious promises
Of a world without end
And a cloudless sky where I can see
Close your eyes for a moment
To the scenes of misery and woe
Degradation and sorrow
That yet prevail on account of sin
And picture before your mental vision
The glory of a perfect earth
Not a stain of sin mars the harmony
And peace of perfect society
Not a bitter thought
Not an unkind look or word
Death and pain won't be seen or heard
Through the eyes of faith
I can see
The end of all the tears we're crying
Because of the fall
Through the eyes of faith
I can cast off fear and be
Just like father Abraham
And follow the Lord
Close your eyes for a moment
To the scenes of misery and woe
Degradation and sorrow
That yet prevail on account of sin
And picture before your mental vision
The glory of a perfect earth...
[live version: but love welling up in every heart
greets a kindred response in every other heart!]
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
Through the eyes of faith
I see precious promises oh yeah
Of a world without end
And a cloudless sky where I can see yeah!

Mission of Mercy

Well he's a modern Paul Revere
free - but not a free mason
doesn't belong to any secret society
he's on a mission of mercy
that the people don't see
they think he's runnin' wild
like he did as a child
they think he's runnin' on empty
but he's full as the sea
and he's free
The British are coming!
The British are coming!
The British are coming!
The British are coming!
The British are coming!
The British are coming!
The British are here!
I'm Paul Revere
Well he's a modern Luther
free from the Papal See
doesn't go along with a man made hierarchy
he's got a mission of mercy
that the people can't see
they think he's gone mad
demoniacal and bad
they cry "heresy!"
but the truth he can see
and he's free
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is the beast
to say the least
solo
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is Babylon!
Rome is the beast
to say the least

Unidentified objects flying
Mary on a highway sign
remote viewing, psychic spying
Benny Hinn making folks feel fine
Astrological chart reading
Lady Fatima etched in pine
ancient warrior channeling
Reinhard Bonnke's poisonous wine.... Falling Nephilim
Television shows black robed rituals
but which is the lesser of the two evils
a fake, fictitious human sacrifice
or real religious zealots who aren't nice?
Think then, in who's best interest would it be
to say that the devil's not reality?
painting an ugly dark cartoon
while lying each Sunday undercover of noon!
Falling Nephilim make troubles
well able to trick the masses
demon manifestations all
causing the nations rise and fall
The near death experience thing
close encounters of the 3rd kind
speaking in tongues by babbling
poltergeist of grandma Levine
Race hating and nations fighting
another child steps on a mine
hurricanes and global warming
values based on the bottom line... Falling Nephilim
So your religion's membership level
has grown by compromise with the devil
he's prince of this s world, power of the air
as long as you're lying, why should he care?
God could've repaired the world long ago
without anyone's help to make it so
in DUE TIME He'll bind the prince, crown the King
and the new renovated world will sing!
Falling Nephilim make troubles
well able to trick the masses
from antiquity very wise
causing the peoples fall and rise
A new alien abducting
Atlantian pyramid find
reincarnation traveling
left his body and lost his mind! ... Falling Nephilim
So your religion's membership level
has grown by compromise with the devil
he's prince of this world, power of the air
as long as you're lying, why should he care?
Think then, in who's best interest would it be
to claim the devil's not reality

The Rapture
05:04
|
|||
|
Ooh they all dream about it
ooh they all sing of the rapture!
The Rapture
Well they call it "The Rapture"
such a lovely word
well they call it the rapture
like the sweet melody of a bird
and no it's not in the Bible
but you'd think it's all the disciples ever heard!
If you want to skip out on the suffering
before it starts you can leave
here's an instantaneous one way ticket
all you need do is believe!
Although Jesus suffered
and his followers did grieve
you can be part of their vanishing act
just make sure that you first look up their sleeve!
This car will have no operator
the bumper stickers explain
when the saints go marching into glory
the pilot will exit the plane!
It's the start of "the tribulation"
after they go, then comes the pain - (oh no!)
and so there can be no doubt about it people
their crazy doctrines are insane
And they call it "The Rapture"
such a lovely word
they call it the rapture
like the sweet melody of a bird
and no it's not in the Bible
but you'd think it's all the disciples ever heard!
They beg you for breakfast all morning
they plead for their dinner at night
their god owns the cattle on 10,000 hills
but he just ain't feeding them right!
They need money to fly home
on their tax-free rapture flight
so they promise you something for nothing
and then they disappear out of sight
But really - the rapture is not in the open
it's not an event you can see
it's the rising up from the sleep of death
of the saints from where they be!
No, they didn't go strait to heaven baby
at least not immediately
the book says they sleep in the dust of the earth
until Jesus sets them free!
And they call it "The Rapture"
such a lovely word
Yeah they call it the rapture
like the sweet melody of a bird
and no it's not found in the Bible
but you'd think it's all the disciples of the Lord ever heard!

Laodicean Messenger
06:19
|
|||
|
Truly never a man spake like this man
He yet speaks to us all
"come unto me all ye that labor
and are heavy laden
and I will give you rest"
Yea and the hour is coming
when all shall be privileged to hear
his blessed message
All the e blind eyes will be opened and
all the mentally deaf ears will be unstopped
ALL that are in their graves shall come forth
The great Seventh Day of the Genesis account
is itself a great week
each day of which is one thousand years long
The six already y past have been
man's work week of struggle
against sin and death under the curse pronounced in Eden
Now the Great Sabbath is beginning
It is as God has promised,
that the curse shall roll away from before the blessings of Messiah's Kingdom
for which so long we have prayed
"Thy Kingdom Come"
A thousand years earth's coming glory!
Let us all resolve for peace and righteousness in word and deed
Let us keep in memory the great Bible fact
that creation is not yet complete
The completed creation will find
our earth a paradise, and filled with a perfect and happy human family
in harmony with the Creator
Thereafter there shall be no more
sin, sorrow, crying or dying
The curse of death will have been rolled away by the Redeemer
and the blessing of God will be upon all - everlasting life
Thus the power of God will be exercised
by Messiah's Kingdom when as Jesus declared,
"ALL that are in their graves
shall come forth"
Stand up, stand up for Jesus
ye soldiers of the cross!
Lift high his royal banner,
it must not suffer loss!
All that are in their graves
shall come forth!
Wonderful things in the Bible I see
this is the dearest, my Father loves me
When we realize t hat the Great Almighty God
is the friend of His creatures
it gives us confidence in Him
and the desire to address Him -
"Our Father in heaven"
How interesting to know that He has
the worlds affairs in His charge
and that the reign of sin and death
will soon be overthrown by Messiah's Kingdom
A thousand years earth's coming glory
Let us all resolve for peace and righteousness in word and deed
Love is of God
cruelty is a mark of sin
The Bible's teachings promote sympathy - love
The cruelties practiced
in the name of Christianity
were induced by false doctrines
God was pictured by the creeds as a demon
Thank God for the greater light of our day
Now the Bible shows us the True God,
and His glorious promises
for all His creatures
Thus the power of God will be exercised
by Messiah's Kingdom when as Jesus declared, "ALL that are in their graves
shall come forth"
Stand up, stand up for Jesus
ye soldiers of the cross!
Lift high his royal l banner,
it must not suffer loss!
All that are in their graves
shall come forth!
Charles Taze Russell - Laodicean Messenger
Let us all resolve for peace and righteousness in word and deed
A thousand years earth's coming glory!

Great Creed Smashing

Great Creed Smashing
For so long now they've been telling us these lies
without making anyone wise
for so long now they've been telling us these lies
It's time we had a great creed smashing
Once upon a time we believed the earth was flat
and the center of the universe at that
along came Copernicus
who told the greater truth to us
and so the "Church" squashed him like a gnat
Once long ago we believed in a hell
where the heathen would eventually dwell
the waters were so muddy
til' modern Bible study
and one by one these superstition's fell
Hard to believe it was all in control
of the devil in his counterfeit role
slavery and division
through use of religion
and threatening the loss of your soul
Their lies were so frightening
their speech mesmerizing
their clothes so commanding and dashing
there would be no criticizing
and no enlightening
no not before the Great Creed Smashing
Remember back when
we thought that men were great
when they upheld the church and the state?
they kept the status quo
and crushed any foe
who'd recognize them as apostate
Recall the sins of our spiritual youth
we'd confess to a man in a booth
we burned out incense
turned beads on our lents
no we worship Him in spirit and Truth
Hard to believe it was all in control
of the devil in his counterfeit role
slavery and division
through use of religion
and threatening the loss of your soul
Their lies were so frightening
their speech mesmerizing
their clothes so commanding and dashing
there would be no criticizing
and no enlightening
no not before the Great Creed Smashing
Who can forget the bad habits
of the men in white collars
Who'd torture a man while he hollers?
ruling the nations
child molestation
absolving the laity for dollars
So glad to see that we finally learned
although our reward was not earned
that God cares for man
and His Great Master Plan
unfolds with every history page turned
Once we were blind but now the cloud is lifting
errors manifest in time
the Truth is sifting
no there wasn't any "trinity"
or innate immortality
thank God the sands of time are finally shifting
The lies were so frightening
their speech mesmerizing
their clothes so commanding and dashing
there would be no criticizing
and no enlightening
no not before the Great Creed Smashing
