John Darby of the Plymouth Brethren spread the rapture concept. In order to adapt scripture to this monstrous doctrine, it was necessary to to adopt the Scofield heresies and merge two opposing doctrines-the envious and lost Judaism-which spits on Jesus-and the docrines of real Christianity. This diabolical merger which Paul cursed even in his own time has a spiritual stronghold associated with it. Adherents to the multitude of hirelings who preach it have to be delivered.

Those besieged by confusing doctrines often fall to a scorpion-like understanding (witness the "prosperity gospel") Scorpions are those in churches for financial riches-"advising" the confused who then become the "snakes" -those who actually believe the false doctrine they propagate. Scorpions are the big tithing elders..in prosperity teaching they are even now the pastors, preachers and teachers.

Whether it be the modern day Pharisees of the church or the slick con men who just use the system to make money, true believers have been given power over "snakes" and "scorpions". Coming out of organized religion, you will then face Judaic (Babylonian) persecution and thus identify with your Savior. This separation however will see you protected in the genocidal tribulation the international financiers have planned. (Ps 91-thousand die at your side..see..you're still here..right here in the midst of the tribulation..no one floats off.)

By the way, considering how easy the heresies 9teen47 spreads is to counter scripturally, I sometimes suspect the real name is Irving. The lies he (she) spreads clearly place her in the enemies camp.
