It is a scam. The institution has not been accepted as authentic, by authentic Christianity at any time throughout history. It came about and was established above all others by the kings of this earth, not God or our Lord and Savior. It has persecuted and killed millions throughout history, and believes in a united church and state (of this world) which causes such, to this very day. It teaches false soul damning doctrines and practices. It has many secret societies which believe and practice the motto of the end justify the means, directly against the teachings of scripture and our Lord Jesus Christ. Contentions within the institution do not really represent good against bad, but rather bad against perhaps worse.

Jhn 18:33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews? 34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? 35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done? 36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. 37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

Certainly is a scam. I just have family that hangs on the thought of the first and only real church.

But I thought it interesting that Glenn Beck did comment in a negative way. He was booted from Fox over his beliefs and talking on-air about religion so much.. (mostly end times)..I am glad to see that did not tone him down.

Quoted article below from link above.

QuoteGlenn opened the radio show this morning discussing the election of Pope Francis and what it means not just for the Catholic Church but for the world.

"I want to say hello to Francis the new Pope," Glenn said. "I will tell you that a lot of people are very excited about him. And I don't know. I don't really know about him."

Last night on The Glenn Beck Program, Glenn spoke of how taken he was with Pope Francis' humility, a sentiment he echoed again this morning. "I thought he was really humble," Glenn said. "I don't remember a Pope coming out before saying, 'please I ask you to pray for me,' and stopping and not giving his blessing. I thought that was amazing. I thought that was really good."

But like many conservatives and libertarians, Glenn's primary concern with Pope Francis is some of the language he has used in the past when discussing the poor and economic inequality. Francis is an obvious advocate of social justice, and it remains to be seen if he sees social justice in sense of personal service as taught in the Bible or in the redistributive sense often touted by the left.

"He does speak about unjust distribution of goods," Pat said. "He's all about the poor. That's not a bad thing, however, what we've been beaten with lately..."

"If this is truly about the poor, and he is going to help us look and say we need to look at our own life, and getaway from stuff by choice, not by force, and we should help the poor by choice, not by force, then this guy is going to be a dream come true," Glenn continued.

Furthermore, Glenn found it interesting that news outlets like CNN and MSNBC immediately began heaping praise on Pope Francis just moments after he appeared before the world for the first time. "You know what my biggest concern is. Everybody on the MSNBC and everybody on CNN love him," Glenn observed. "I heard he was a saint from CNN maybe a minute and a half into it. They didn't call him a Pope. They called him a saint."

At this point, it is too early to say just what the future will hold for the leader of the nearly 1.7 billion Catholics worldwide, but Glenn hopes to learn more about Pope Francis in the coming weeks. "It's too early to tell, at least for an outsider who is not a Catholic, what this Pope is going to do. We'll just have to watch him," Glenn said. "We're trying to put a special together for next week – a little bit about who he is as a man and what he's done."

It will be interesting to go through what Glen has said since this early on statement. Since we now know of Pope Francis' support of the redistributive state, climate change mandates, covid vaccine mandates, submission of sovereign nations and peoples to international organizations of unelected elitist officials, global government, and a global economic system. Oh yea, and legislative support of the LBGTQ and whatever else community. Not to mention calling for grass roots social activists such as black lives matter, to seize the plandemic moment to help bring about radical societal changes. Need to do a little digging to see what this "influencer" had to say about all such, if anything.

Another video by Glenn Beck.

Interesting right wing version of revisionist history. Which, while referencing and using God and Christianity as an obvious moral guiding source and influence to the processes of forming, uniting, and maintaining our nation, never even refers to the holy scriptures. Let alone testifies that they were the most intricate and necessary ingredient of the cohesiveness and ordering of this nation. Or to the major battle between biblically based Christianity, and Roman Catholic Christianity, for control of this newly developing nation. Which continues to this very day. Though fewer and fewer people know or realizer it, exactly because of righty or lefty revisionist forms of history which Glen Beck just demonstrated in this video. Obviously of the right wing party. As though it was a battle about witch hunting or not, that formed the basis of the freedoms and liberties we have enjoyed. Which broke the bonds of "priestly" and "royal" control over us. Which is a load of crap.

Neither were the virtues or not of Star Wars, Ronald Reagan, the internet or social media, Abraham Lincoln, Trump, the cup of communion separate from the rest of scriptural teaching, the Wizard of Oz, Batman, or Indiana Jones, the source of our nations greatness. Nor can any of the above reestablish or sustain such greatness as the true cause itself can and did. The source of the greatness of this nation was a book, but certainly not the diary of Hollywood created Indiana Jones' father, and finding the Holy Grail. It was the holy scriptures of God, the Bible, which inspired the principles which this predominantly Protestant Bible believing nation was built and established upon.

The Protestant Reformation, and the bible believing peoples which predominantly occupied this nation in its infancy, were the back bone and support required to the formation of our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. Which finally broke the chains of corrupted and abusive spiritual and temporal authorities in bed together. Walking upon the backs of the multitudes. Casting down this unholy union of power, and placing power into the hands of the peoples they abused for such a long age while professing the name of Christ and hiding under the cloak of "Christianity". Nor is it any coincidence that today, as ever increasing numbers of Roman Catholics, Secular Humanists, and apostate Protestants are populating and running our nation, that these same abuses are arising again. While the separation of church and state which our founders envisioned as a protection against all such, is crumbling under the combined weight of this religio - political trio. Secular Humanists and apostate Protestants being the illegitimate daughters of the Church of Rome, Babylon the great.

Short of acknowledging these truths of real history, righty and lefty historical revisionists, cannot and will not restore the former greatness of this nation. They may very well achieve a sort of worldly greatness again. The freedom and liberty they express however, simply cannot be morally and truthfully established, upon anything other than a people primarily educated in the study of Holy Scripture. Concerning the God of holy scripture, who allows for perfect freedom, while ever maintaining the highest moral fiber and standards for all to achieve. Which standards cannot be comprehended or understood by a people who refuse to look at the Author of them, found within the holy scriptures alone. So be it therefore, upon those who refuse to look upon and study the true standard of godliness, righteousness, purity, freedom, liberty, and justice, as that standard itself has prophesied and determined.

Rev 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?........................
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. 12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. 15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

The following is a smidgen of historical record concerning the history both right and left leaning revisionists ignore. Emphasis is mine.

QuoteJohn Adams - A Dissertation on the Canon and Feudal Law (On man's standing in the order of creation)

...............................................................

The poor people, it is true, have been much less successful than the great. They have seldom found either leisure or opportunity to form a union and exert their strength; ignorant as they were of arts and letters, they have seldom been able to frame and support a regular opposition. This, however, has been known by the great to be the temper of mankind; and they have accordingly labored, in all ages, to wrest from the populace, as they are contemptuously called, the knowledge of their rights and wrongs, and the power to assert the former or redress the latter. I say RIGHTS, for such they have, undoubtedly, antecedent to all earthly government, -- Rights, that cannot be repealed or restrained by human laws -- Rights, derived from the great Legislator of the universe.

Since the promulgation of Christianity, the two greatest systems of tyranny that have sprung from this original, are the canon and the feudal law.
The desire of dominion, that great principle by which we have attempted to account for so much good and so much evil, is, when properly restrained, a very useful and noble movement in the human mind. But when such restraints are taken off, it becomes an encroaching, grasping, restless, and ungovernable power. Numberless have been the systems of iniquity contrived by the great for the gratification of this passion in themselves; but in none of them were they ever more successful than in the invention and establishment of the canon and the feudal law.

By the former of these, the most refined, sublime, extensive, and astonishing constitution of policy that ever was conceived by the mind of man was framed by the Romish clergy for the aggrandisement of their own order. All the epithets I have here given to the Romish policy are just, and will be allowed to be so when it is considered, that they even persuaded mankind to believe, faithfully and undoubtingly, that God Almighty had entrusted them with the keys of heaven, whose gates they might open and close at pleasure; with a power of dispensation over all the rules and obligations of morality; with authority to license all sorts of sins and crimes; with a power of deposing princes and absolving subjects from allegiance; with a power of procuring or withholding the rain of heaven and the beams of the sun; with the management of earthquakes, pestilence, and famine; nay, with the mysterious, awful, incomprehensible power of creating out of bread and wine the flesh and blood of God himself. All these opinions they were enabled to spread and rivet among the people by reducing their minds to a state of sordid ignorance and staring timidity,
and by infusing into them a religious horror of letters and knowledge. Thus was human nature chained fast for ages in a cruel, shameful, and deplorable servitude to him, and his subordinate tyrants, who, it was foretold, would exalt himself above all that was called God, and that was worshipped.

In the latter we find another system, similar in many respects to the former; which, although it was originally formed, perhaps, for the necessary defence of a barbarous people against the inroads and invasions of her neighboring nations, yet for the same purposes of tyranny, cruelty, and lust, which had dictated the canon law, it was soon adopted by almost all the princes of Europe, and wrought into the constitutions of their government. It was originally a code of laws for a vast army in a perpetual encampment. The general was invested with the sovereign propriety of all the lands within the territory. Of him, as his servants and vassals, the first rank of his great officers held the lands; and in the same manner the other subordinate officers held of them; and all ranks and degrees held their lands by a variety of duties and services, all tending to bind the chains the faster on every order of mankind. In this manner the common people were held together in herds and clans in a state of servile dependence on their lords, bound, even by the tenure of their lands, to follow them, whenever they commanded, to their wars, and in a state of total ignorance of every thing divine and human, excepting the use of arms and the culture of their lands.

1 Rob. Hist. ch. v. pp. 178-9, &c.
But another event still more calamitous to human liberty, was a wicked confederacy between the two systems of tyranny above described. It seems to have been even stipulated between them, that the temporal grandees should contribute every thing in their power to maintain the ascendency of the priesthood, and that the spiritual grandees in their turn, should employ their ascendency over the consciences of the people, in impressing on their minds a blind, implicit obedience to civil magistracy.
Thus, as long as this confederacy lasted, and the people were held in ignorance, liberty, and with her, knowledge and virtue too, seem to have deserted the earth, and one age of darkness succeeded another, till God in his benign providence raised up the champions who began and conducted the Reformation. From the time of the Reformation to the first settlement of America, knowledge gradually spread in Europe, but especially in England; and in proportion as that increased and spread among the people, ecclesiastical and civil tyranny, which I use as synonymous expressions for the canon and feudal laws, seem to have lost their strength and weight. The people grew more and more sensible of the wrong that was done them by these systems, more and more impatient under it, and determined at all hazards to rid themselves of it; till at last, under the execrable race of the Stuarts, the struggle between the people and the confederacy aforesaid of temporal and spiritual tyranny, became formidable, violent, and bloody.


It was this great struggle that peopled America. It was not religion alone, as is commonly supposed; but it was a love of universal liberty, and a hatred, a dread, a horror, of the infernal confederacy before described, that projected, conducted, and accomplished the settlement of America.

It was a resolution formed by a sensible people, -- I mean the Puritans, -- almost in despair. They had become intelligent in general, and many of them learned. For this fact, I have the testimony of Archbishop King himself, who observed of that people, that they were more intelligent and better read than even the members of the church, whom he censures warmly for that reason. This people had been so vexed and tortured by the powers of those days, for no other crime than their knowledge and their freedom of inquiry and examination, and they had so much reason to despair of deliverance from those miseries on that side the ocean, that they at last resolved to fly to the wilderness for refuge from the temporal and spiritual principalities and powers, and plagues and scourges of their native country......................................

Tyranny in every form, shape, and appearance was their disdain and abhorrence; no fear of punishment, nor even of death itself in exquisite tortures, had been sufficient to conquer that steady, manly, pertinacious spirit with which they had opposed the tyrants of those days in church and state. They were very far from being enemies to monarchy; and they knew as well as any men, the just regard and honor that is due to the character of a dispenser of the mysteries of the gospel of grace. But they saw clearly, that popular powers must be placed as a guard, a control, a balance, to the powers of the monarch and the priest, in every government, or else it would soon become the man of sin, the whore of Babylon, the mystery of iniquity, a great and detestable system of fraud, violence, and usurpation. Their greatest concern seems to have been to establish a government of the church more consistent with the Scriptures, and a government of the state more agreeable to the dignity of human nature, than any they had seen in Europe, and to transmit such a government down to their posterity, with the means of securing and preserving it forever. ...........................................................

They saw clearly, that of all the nonsense and delusion which had ever passed through the mind of man, none had ever been more extravagant than the notions of absolutions, indelible characters, uninterrupted successions, and the rest of those fantastical ideas, derived from the canon law, which had thrown such a glare of mystery, sanctity, reverence, and right reverend eminence and holiness, around the idea of a priest, as no mortal could deserve, and as always must, from the constitution of human nature, be dangerous in society. For this reason, they demolished the whole system of diocesan episcopacy; and, deriding, as all reasonable and impartial men must do, the ridiculous fancies of sanctified effluvia from episcopal fingers, they established sacerdotal ordination on the foundation of the Bible and common sense. This conduct at once imposed an obligation on the whole body of the clergy to industry, virtue, piety, and learning, and rendered that whole body infinitely more independent on the civil powers, in all respects, than they could be where they were formed into a scale of subordination, from a pope down to priests and friars and confessors, -- necessarily and essentially a sordid, stupid, and wretched herd, -- or than they could be in any other country, where an archbishop held the place of a universal bishop, and the vicars and curates that of the ignorant, dependent, miserable rabble aforesaid, -- and infinitely more sensible and learned than they could be in either. ..........................................................

They knew that government was a plain, simple, intelligible thing, founded in nature and reason, and quite comprehensible by common sense. They detested all the base services and servile dependencies of the feudal system. They knew that no such unworthy dependencies took place in the ancient seats of liberty, the republics of Greece and Rome; and they thought all such slavish subordinations were equally inconsistent with the constitution of human nature and that religious liberty with which Jesus had made them free. This was certainly the opinion they had formed; and they were far from being singular or extravagant in thinking so. Many celebrated modern writers in Europe have espoused the same sentiments.................................................

This spirit, however, without knowledge, would be little better than a brutal rage. Let us tenderly and kindly cherish, therefore, the means of knowledge. Let us dare to read, think, speak, and write. Let every order and degree among the people rouse their attention and animate their resolution. Let them all become attentive to the grounds and principles of government, ecclesiastical and civil. Let us study the law of nature; search into the spirit of the British constitution; read the histories of ancient ages; contemplate the great examples of Greece and Rome; set before us the conduct of our own British ancestors, who have defended for us the inherent rights of mankind against foreign and domestic tyrants and usurpers, against arbitrary kings and cruel priests, in short, against the gates of earth and hell. Let us read and recollect and impress upon our souls the views and ends of our own more immediate forefathers, in exchanging their native country for a dreary, inhospitable wilderness. Let us examine into the nature of that power, and the cruelty of that oppression, which drove them from their homes. Recollect their amazing fortitude, their bitter sufferings, -- the hunger, the nakedness, the cold, which they patiently endured, -- the severe labors of clearing their grounds, building their houses, raising their provisions, amidst dangers from wild beasts and savage men, before they had time or money or materials for commerce. Recollect the civil and religious principles and hopes and expectations which constantly supported and carried them through all hardships with patience and resignation. Let us recollect it was liberty, the hope of liberty for themselves and us and ours, which conquered all discouragements, dangers, and trials. In such researches as these, let us all in our several departments cheerfully engage, -- but especially the proper patrons and supporters of law, learning, and religion!

Let the pulpit resound with the doctrines and sentiments of religious liberty. Let us hear the danger of thraldom to our consciences from ignorance, extreme poverty, and dependence, in short, from civil and political slavery. Let us see delineated before us the true map of man. Let us hear the dignity of his nature, and the noble rank he holds among the works of God, -- that consenting to slavery is a sacrilegious breach of trust, as offensive in the sight of God as it is derogatory from our own honor or interest or happiness, -- and that God Almighty has promulgated from heaven, liberty, peace, and good-will to man!

Let the bar proclaim, "the laws, the rights, the generous plan of power" delivered down from remote antiquity, -- inform the world of the mighty struggles and numberless sacrifices made by our ancestors in defence of freedom. Let it be known, that British liberties are not the grants of princes or parliaments, but original rights, conditions of original contracts, coequal with prerogative, and coeval with government; that many of our rights are inherent and essential, agreed on as maxims, and established as preliminaries, even before a parliament existed. Let them search for the foundations of British laws and government in the frame of human nature, in the constitution of the intellectual and moral world. There let us see that truth, liberty, justice, and benevolence, are its everlasting basis; and if these could be removed, the superstructure is overthrown of course.

..........................................................

Is it any wonder today then, that the ancient foes of liberty, freedom, and justice described above, are hard at working dividing, dumbing down, and pleading for the masses to submit to international unelected globalist institutions of ever increasingly mandating and tyrannical nature? Constantly creating chaos and confusion to distract and benumb the senses, that they might deceive the masses into submitting once again to their abusive authority. And or taking advantage of every crisis, natural or created, to further their usurping authority through fear mongering political tactics.

We must continually educate ourselves against these ancient foes, and there constant attempts to dupe humanity into submitting to their tyrannical authority once again. Which we cannot do apart from Holy scripture, and the knowledge of the true history of the war between Holy scripture and these tyrants for our willing submission to either or. The latter depending upon our ignorance of the former to succeed.

"We have nothing to fear from the future, lest we forget the hard fought lessons we have learned from our past."
