Gary KahGUEST
Well, a lot of this is because the positive status that replacement theology has gained in most of our churches.
Gary KahGUEST
This is a teaching virtually every mainline Protestant denomination that belongs to the World Council of Churches holds to a replacement theology viewpoint.
Gary KahGUEST
And according to that view, Israel and the Jews have no further purpose in God's plans.
Gary KahGUEST
He's done with them.
Gary KahGUEST
yeah.
Gary KahGUEST
So at a very time when we need to be warned so that we don't step into these deceptions, they're just casting them all aside.
Gary KahGUEST
I want to go into the World Council of Churches a little bit because they're squarely in that replacement camp and they are moving more and more toward unity with the Roman Catholic Church, which actually historically has been the wellspring of replacement theology.
Gary KahGUEST
And a lot of evangelicals don't realize that.
Donald Gray BarnhouseSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Throughout the war, these men preached no gospel, but instead talked about a just and durable peace.
Donald Gray BarnhouseSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The World Council of Churches came up with the idea that it's the duty of the churches to fight the twin evils of communism and capitalism.
Donald Gray BarnhouseSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Now, any minister who follows that line is serving God in the flesh and not in the spirit.
Donald Gray BarnhouseSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It is possible to fight communism in the flesh, for it is a godless, unbiblical system.
speaker_1HOST
They need international help.
speaker_2HOST
With the assistance of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and various international Christian organizations, like the World Council of Churches, these communities managed to evacuate China in the late 1950s.
speaker_1HOST
They are put on trains and make their way to Hong Kong.
speaker_2HOST
Think about the visual of that.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Um, so Stalin would, would, y- he'd have a few pet churches around, and he'd bring...
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
I know I mentioned this before, but he'd bring the, um, you know, rel- religious people over, you know, the World Council of Churches people over, um, and say, "See? There's full religious freedom here." And he'd have a priest say, "Yes, there's full religious fee- religious freedom here." These idiots would then go back and say, "Oh, this talk about the persecution of the church is nonsense.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
I met the clergy over there." Um, and it happened all the time.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
The, um, Archbishop of C- of, of, um, Canterbury was particularly stupid in this era, 'cause he was one of the ones that, that Stalin invited over and, uh, you know, showed this Potemkin village.
7 MINS LATER
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
This is one of the reasons I say the Cold War was largely mythical.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Um, the regime took over all these other institutions.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
You had the World Council of Churches, same thing, thanks to the, um, uh, Archos- Archbishop of Canterbury.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
This was, you know...
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
And, you know, what was left of it was, was sent, sent to the camps or executed.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Uh, that was no problem, though, because the Soviet Union was a part of the World Council of Churches.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
You know, Rockefeller, um, created a ecumenical body that still exists today, and you had so many stupid people from the church, Church of, uh, England going over there saying...
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
You know, they show them this Potem- Potemkin village of, of this beautiful cathedral, then he would go back and say, "Oh, no, there's no persecution of Jews, uh, of, of, uh, of Orthodox there.
4 HRS 58 MINS LATER
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Um, they would bring, uh, especially the, um, Archbishop of, of Canterbury, who, as you know right now, is a woman, um, in, show him a few churches, and he went back, idiot that he was, and say, "Yeah, there's no, there's no, there's no religious persecution.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
I saw these most beautiful churches when I was there." Now talk about a Potemkin village.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Uh, you know, so, and the church, I think this one that Stalin created in 1944 only existed, um, for that reason, and, and to be on the, the council, the World Council of Churches and support Soviet power there, you know, uh, was tiny, at least in the beginning.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Most Orthodox people were either in exile, dead, um, or, uh, or underground.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
So Stalin would, he'd have a few pet churches around.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
And he'd bring, I know I mentioned this before, but he'd bring the religious people over, the World Council of Churches people over and say, see, there's full religious freedom here.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
And he'd have a priest say, yes, there's full religious freedom here.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
These idiots would then go back and say, oh, this talk about the persecution of the church is nonsense.

Jacob PraschHOST
And just like Roman Catholicism or liberal Protestantism or the Eastern Orthodox Church, It combines truth with error.
Jacob PraschHOST
Everything that the Roman Catholic Church or the Liberal Protestant Church or the Church of England or the World Council of Churches teaches, everything that the Pope or the Patriarch of Constantinople teaches, it is not all false.
Jacob PraschHOST
It is rather what Peter describes in 2 Peter 2 as patosogzusin, It puts truth next to error.
Jacob PraschHOST
It says things that are true and uses the true things as packaging and camouflage for the error.
Jacob PraschHOST
It went into the Gimorah and all of these oral and man-made traditions were written down.
Jacob PraschHOST
It goes on and on and becomes the Judaism tradition.
Jacob PraschHOST
That is the counterfeit Judaism we have today, much the same as the Vatican is a counterfeit Christianity, or the World Council of Churches is a counterfeit Christianity.
Jacob PraschHOST
And now the Church of England has joined the ranks.
John BradshawHOST
So the issues that were raised by the Protestant Reformers still exist today, emphasized by a headline that appeared on the front page of the Los Angeles Times back in the year 2000, Vatican Declares Catholicism Soul Path to Salvation.
John BradshawHOST
The secretary of the World Council of Churches at the time said this in response, It's realistic to acknowledge that this is the official Catholic position, and we cannot simply wish it away.
John BradshawHOST
Men like John Huss and his colleague Jerome in Bohemia Louis de Burkhan in France William Tyndale of England Ridley, Latimer, and Cranmer in England Patrick Hamilton and George Wishart in Scotland Millions of others during those dark, blood-stained centuries gave their lives, in the words of the Apostle John for the Word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
