For the most part, we have been tracing the convoluted interconnectedness of power that shapes our world today. Today we’ll begin to look at the origins and sources of that power. As we do so we will briefly enter the realm of the ‘fantastic’, endeavoring to stay with only the most credible of sources as we shed some light on the outworking of Satan’s minions in this, the physical realm.
PART XI – POWERS BEHIND POWERS
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” (Eph. 6:12)
Now we’ve begun to lift the veil on the network that ties the controlling forces of our world together. But there is more to this than meets the eye. To the casual observer, this may seem like just the natural tendency of the rich to chum up together and make decisions based on common interests. It is much more than that. These great powers: – the powerful families, the multi-national corporations, the large banking houses, and their fellow travelers in the globalist movement, are connected on a more intimate level than that of common business interests. That connection can be traced back at least several centuries. You’ll recall that banks controlled by the Rothschild family gave many of the American and British moneyed aristocracy their start or aided them in advancing their fortunes. The House of Rothschild was founded in 1776, the same year that Adam Weishaupt announced his Order of Perfectibilis, later known as the Bavarian Illuminati. The five man inner council of this organization included the Jesuit-educated Weishaupt himself, the Marqis de Sade, and one Francis Dashwood of something called the Satanic Hell Fire Club. (Catchy little name, that!) It also included the scion of the founder of the Rothschild empire, Mayer Amschel Rothschild.[i] [ii]
Now while the existence of a modern day Illuminati may be a subject of controversy, the Bavarian Illuminati was a very real threat to the governments of its day. The group had branches throughout Europe before finally being smashed by the Bavarian police. By 1790 the Bavarian Illuminati was pretty much dead though successor groups took on the title of Illuminati; – including Satanist Aleister Crowley’s Order Templi Orientis in England, and the Grand Lodge Rockefeller, in the US.[iii] [iv] A quick look at Crowley’s OTO will go a long way toward revealing the nature of the beast. You may recall that it was Crowley, through his satanic magick experiment, Babalon Working, who tried to call forth the Antichrist. Now this Templi Orientis, – a sort of new order of Masonic lodge, – in the words of one apologist, – “represents a surfacing and confluence of the divergent streams of esoteric wisdom and knowledge which were originally divided and driven underground by political and religious intolerance during the dark ages. It draws from the traditions of the Freemasonic, Rosicrucian and Illuminist movements of the 18th and 19th centuries, the crusading Knights Templars of the middle ages and early Christian Gnosticism and the Pagan Mystery Schools”. In other words this is pure paganism, unadulterated Satanism of the first degree. Carl Kellner, its spiritual father, was an adept in Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism, Eastern Mysticism and Hinduism. Theosophy, with its direct contact with demonic presences, is yet another critical influence.[v] It is where this goes next that is really most intriguing. In our next installment we’ll follow its development in the new State of Israel.
