In Conclusion

     The concepts presented in this work are a serious challenge to the status quo of the doctrines and practices that are accepted by all mainstream Bible-based religions.  This work was not begun to compile an in-depth, scripturally evidenced, and all-encompassing case against those religions, but that is the glaring result.  There are a few well-circulated contradictions of church conduct such as the pagan origins of holidays revered by the church, and the sleazy side of certain “shepherds of the flock” that discredit church integrity.  The exclusive inward view, and intrusive public actions of the pulpit, also cast a shadow of doubt on the power of those who presume to be leaders of the church.  But, never has such a salient and scripturally verified case against a broad range of church practices been gathered. 
     There are a dozen major theological subjects, and scores of concepts within those subjects, in this work.  Each of those concepts brings into question the teachings and practices of the church in those areas. Much more could be added, but the number of contradictions, and the weight of scriptural evidence proving their erroneous nature, is sufficient to question the very foundations of church authority.
     This work poses a broad range of questions which challenge the origins of the majority of church doctrines and practices.  The scriptural edict to “prove all things”, (I Thessalonians 5:21), demands answers to those questions posed.  The church uses the doctrines it teaches to form the thoughts and actions of its followers.  It demands loyalty, and receives financial support, based on those teachings, which also affect the way those learning them deal with the world around them. 
     Considering one-third of humanity is under the influence of Bible-based churches, the foundation of that influence must be open to scrutiny.  If that foundation is based on untruths, contradictions, and manmade doctrine, rather than solid scriptural footing, the authority of those churches is false. 
It is not our place to condemn, and there is no realistic consideration that neither this work, nor any other power, will change even a single teaching of the church.  There will be those who condemn, and those that will applaud this work, but, one mind enlightened, one life liberated, or even one spark of hope generated justifies its existence.  There is no organization associated with this work and there is no movement or goal driving it, other than a mission to present the truth as scripture reveals it. 

God
      Scripture reveals a very real and immortal race called the Elohiym with a tangible physical presence and absolute power extending from terra forming entire planets, and the creation of an intense biosphere teeming with complicated life forms, to the control of a universe that has no boundaries.  The second highest ranking being of this family of supreme beings, the first son of the source of all life, was the Lord God, called in the Hebrew, Yhovah the Elohiym, and the guiding force behind the creation.  This same being was the God directly dealing with mankind, was known as the God of the nation of Israel, and entered into the human race to save that race from destruction and to insure a higher destiny for humanity.  It has been clearly documented that mankind was made to look like, and become, the Elohiym.   

Jesus
      The Lord God, the creator of the human race, entered physically into that race through a miraculous birth and became the man called Jesus of Nazareth.  He was a well-respected member of his community, owned homes, had brothers and sisters, and socialized with the leaders of his society.  His ministry, and his mission, was completely focused on the love between those humans he encountered, taught, and healed.  He brought a positive declaration and solid promise that he would save humanity from future destruction and adopt mankind into the immortal race of the Elohiym.  He conquered death as a sacrifice for mankind, which fulfilled the ultimate destiny of mankind. 

The Gospel
      The good news Jesus brought to this world was the announcement and fulfillment of a guaranteed joint-inheritance with him into the Family of God.   He promised that humans will be spiritually changed and born into children, actual sons and daughters, of the Father who sent Jesus.  This inheritance would convert those mortals into brothers and sisters by spiritual adoption with the ultimate power of the Elohiym they will become. 
      As heirs with Jesus, humans will receive the unimaginable gifts of immortality, unconditional love, wisdom and truth, unlimited power, and total freedom.  This adoption will come with a crown of royalty and rulership with Jesus.  The true meaning of life is this gospel and the salvation from death, which Jesus, the Christ, conquered. 

Mankind
      The most complex creature on this planet has not reached that advanced state by luck or some ethereal selection process of "Mother Nature", but by the design of the powerful beings that created it.  Human beings were created by the Lord God, in the image of the Elohiym, to become joint-heirs with the Lord Jesus into the royal eternal Family of the Elohiym.  Humans possess an incredible underlying power restricted only by the knowledge of, and belief in, that power, even in a seemingly limited physical state.  The Gospel of Jesus testifies strongly that this power is inherent in all humans by the gift of guaranteed ascension to a godly state.  Evidence worldwide bears witness to many aspects of this power being exhibited by individuals throughout our history.  Scripture testifies that Jesus, and the members of the church he founded, had supernatural powers. The Bible reveals the key to complete happiness and fulfillment in life, and the prime principle in the conduct in all human affairs is love.  Unconditional love toward all people without prejudice, complete equality in social and financial standing in all human affairs, and a focus on unlimited service to all men and women is what Jesus taught.   

The Great Deception
     All scripture leads chronologically towards a time when worldwide financial control, mass social deception, bizarre planetary upheaval, and horrific human disaster will dominate the affairs of mankind.  The Bible identifies both Satan and global corporations as the social deceivers. Global financial control has been the goal of big business for centuries, and the search for commercial wealth has resulted in the devastation of several entire cultures.  No doubt, the planet has suffered greatly under the weight of human progress sponsored by big business, as the frequency and severity of disasters is rapidly increasing, with many concluding that it is on the brink of complete upheaval now.
     The complete dedication by the business world to profit as the only guiding principle in corporate conduct is an anathema to principles taught by Jesus.  Avarice, materialism, covetousness, consumptive obsession, and unfettered increase in wealth are the doctrines of the religion of a capitalist society, and contrary to scriptural doctrines, not the least of which is this:
♦  "For the love of money is the root of all evil..." (I Timothy 6:10). 
     There is nothing a corporation cannot do, and there is no freedom it should not have. This is becoming the mindset of politicians worldwide, and causing great consternation for any who dare question unlimited corporate freedom and criminal act., Through manipulation of rights guaranteed to humans, corporations now have equivalent freedom, including freedom of speech.  Because of the corporate structure, the stockholders are free from responsibility, for corporate acts cannot be effectively controlled.  That same corporate structure insures, by law, that the profit of the stockholders is the prime concern of the officers controlling the corporation.  A powerful entity with freedom exceeding a human; as it is a creation of lesser parts with no responsibility, and those lesser parts though human, cannot be punished under the corporate umbrella.  This has given corporations unprecedented control over the regulations that govern them, the governments that enforce those regulations, and the lawmakers making those regulations law.
       Satan has been moving the world towards total destruction for millennia, but not as a demon possessing souls of hapless humans, or enticing members from church congregations.  He is deceptively, but directly involved in the day to day affairs of mankind using financial, military, political, social, scientific, academic, and false religious influence, not spiritual mind control.  He was not called Lucifer, made very few appearances scripturally, is a miserable failure, and can be controlled, simply by understanding how he is influencing mankind and resisting that influence.
