Modern Olympics — Ancient Pagan Ceremony Repackaged

 

The Olympics — It’s not what you think…

The Olympian events continue to be a major pagan ritual as it was since its inception during the ancient Greek civilization. Contrary to popular belief, the event hosts more than just games. London Olympics 2012 is probably going to be one of the biggest occult ritual till date, not to forget the Athens Olympics 2004 that was packed with ritualistic symbolism. The term ‘Olympic’ springs from Olympus or Olympos, a Greek god as well as a mythical location of the 12 Greek gods.

Ancient Olympics 

The ancient pagan Greeks took their religious deities very seriously. Everything they did revolved around their gods and goddesses. The Olympics was in fact a religious celebration rather than a sporting event that including all kinds of immorality, from animal (and occasionally human) sacrifices to sexual revelry to religious chants and feasts dedicated to their deities.  For several centuries, the event was held every fourth years, as it is today. In ancient Greece, it was the longest religious festival as well as the longest sporting event — and it continues to be in this day and age.

Zeus was the main god that was honored during the religious athletic event. He was known as the king of the Olympians. The participants would stand before an enormous 40-feet high statue of the god holding a lightning bolt, swearing oaths to him at his temple in Olympia. Only men participated in the Games back then, and they would do so naked.

At the beginning of the event, the “eternal flame” was lit by virgins in honor of Hera, Zeus’ sister and wife. The same flame is seen held by the Statue of Liberty and Paramount Pictures.

This polytheistic rituals lasted several hundred years before it was a banned in 394 A.D. by Emperor Theodosius of Rome in response to the spread of Christianity across the Roman empire. He realized the horrendous pagan acts carried out during the Olympic events went against the prevailing Christian belief.

Birth of Modern Olympics

Baron Pierre, a Jesuit/Freemason (no surprises) revived the pagan spirit of the Games in 1892. He was the father of the International Olympic Committee.

‘Baron de Coubertin so loved the religion of the games that his heart was buried in the temple of Apollo in Olympia. To Coubertin, the Olympian athlete was himself a god. In an 1892 proposal of the revival of the games, Coubertin said, “The first essential characteristic of the Olympics, both ancient as well as modern, is to be a religion. It represents, above and outside the Churches, humanity’s superior religion.” Today, more revival of the ‘spirit’ of the games is being promulgated by many.’ — Source

The event is NO different today. It’s pagan to its core. Ritualistic acts abound. Greek deities are present on medals; the flame is lit, every beginning as a ceremonial implication. One of the acts of pagan rituals include excessive sex with multiple/unknown partners. The same happens during the Olympic events “behind-the-scenes” as described by US gold medalist, Hope Solo:

“With a once-in-a-lifetime experience, you want to build memories, whether it’s sexual, partying or on the field. I’ve seen people having sex right out in the open. On the grass, between buildings, people are getting down and dirty.” Source

Sexual activities in the open or behind doors is an essential ritual of ancient pagan religions.

Live in the Fear of God

For those of us who are called by the LORD our God to live a life separate from that of the world, let us be ware that we don’t get heavily involved in this satanic event as we will be watching a pagan ritual unfold. Be on your guard! Let us not become like the Israelites who worshiped the golden calf and reveled in its glory when they thought Moses was not returning.

And Jesus said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God. – Luke 16:15

A Nation defeated by Idolatry

Two major events have taken place in the US recently: legalization of gay marriages in New York and Christians welcoming Muslims into the house of God to hold interfaith services. Along with these two events, tree-huggers are taking extreme measures to worship the created than the Creator. Scientists are busy searching for extraterrestial life in order to have contact with them and literally worship them; they believe that aliens will solve the problems of this world. The list could go on but the spiritual downfall of the nation cannot be more evident. Homosexuality is the result of blatant disregard to the holy God, the Creator of the universe (read carefully) :

22 “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

 ²³And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

 ²⁴Wherefore (for which reason) God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

 ²⁵Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

 ²⁶For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

 ²⁷And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.” – Romans 1, The KJV Bible

The Bible clearly defines the reason behind men lusting after men and women lusting after women: idolatry. When the created is being worship, godly morals, godly fear and godly reverence has no place in such worshippers. God gives up the wicked to exchange unnatural relationship with each other. There is evidently a lot of idolatry going on in America, and it’s spreading to other nations at the speed of a mouse click! The list of wicked acts goes on:

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

 ²⁹Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication (fornication always follows idol worship; it’s considered a ritual for some religions), wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

 ³⁰Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things (Hollywood, Bollywood), disobedient to parents (rebellious teens are a result of the idolatry),

 ³¹Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

 ³²Who knowing the judgment of God (those “Christians” who have welcomed Muslims into their midst), that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.” 

The US has been greatly defeated by the eastern religions, the source of idolatry. The infiltration of depraved Hindu philosophies and religious mysticism by New Agers has especially played a gigantic role in diverting the nation of America from the God they once feared and revered, evident in their recent acts. The nation has failed to protect its borders from depraved influences; instead it calls its people to tolerate it! The Lord will preserve His faithful Church.

The Slavery of Serving Worldliness

“Oh that my child be godly. Oh that my child give it all for the sake of Christ. Oh that my child live for Him. Oh that my child not be enslaved to the very things that so enslave me.

Do you realize, now listen to this, there’s a balance in everything, there is… but do you realize that if you would just take an agenda/write down a list of how much time you invest in your children in extra curricular activities (versus) how much time you invest in your children with regard to godliness.

We buy things, we fill them full of media, we put them in the world, and we carry them every place on the face of the earth all throughout the week that our lives are so busy and scattered that we can’t even sit a meal and what are we doing?! We’re making our children enslaved to the very master that enslaves us and ruins our lives instead of teaching our children only one thing is needed: devotion to Christ.”

– Paul Washer

Should we Rock The Gospel? P1 1 of 2

“The last fifty years has produced a violent revolution in music form and culture, such that the generations are hardly able to sit in the same worship service together. Is this the way culture is supposed to develop – each generation rebelling against the previous generation?

Kevin Swanson interviews Dan Lucarini, author of the book, ‘Why I left the Modern Contemporary Christian Music Movement’. Does Rock & Roll belong in the worship service? What is the best music to convey a reverence and fear of God in His worship? These are the questions grappled with on this segment of Generations.”
