The document discusses the unification of church and state throughout history and how this violates God's law. It describes how religious authorities have used the power of the state to persecute dissenters and force religious observance, as seen in the cases of Jesus, the Hebrew boys, and prophecies of end-time deception. Any system that unites church and state through compulsion rather than individual conviction commits an abomination against God.
2. WHO ARE BABYLON’S PARTNERS?
REVELATION 14: 8
And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon
is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made
all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her
fornication.
REVELATION 17:1, 2
And there came one of the seven angels which had
the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me,
Come hither; I will show unto thee the judgment of
the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With
whom the kings of the earth have committed
fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have
been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3. UNIFICATION: CHURCH & STATE IN
CHRIST DAY
MATTHEW 22:15-17, 21
Then went the Pharisees [church], and took counsel
how they might entangle him in [his] talk. And they
sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians
[state], saying, Master, we know that thou art true,
and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest
thou for any [man]: for thou regardest not the person
of men. Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it
lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? ...And he
saith unto them, Whose [is] this image and
superscription? They say unto him, Caesar's. Then
saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar
the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the
things that are God's.
4. CAESAR’S AND GOD’S

And he declared unto you his covenant, which he
commanded you to perform, [even] ten
commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables
of stone.
DEUTERONOMY 6:5-7 [First tablet: vertically]

thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy
might. And these words, which I command thee this
day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach
them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of
them when thou sittest in thine house, and when
thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up.

7. JESUS: STATE AUTHORITY?
MARK 2:5-7
…He said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be
forgiven thee. But there were certain of the scribes
sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, Why doth
this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive
sins but God only?
JOHN 10:32, 33
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I
showed you from my Father; for which of those
works do ye stone me? The Jews answered him,
saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for
blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man,
makest thyself God.
8. PHARISEES: ACCUSATION OF
CHRIST?
JOHN 9:16
Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is
not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day.
Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such
miracles? And there was a division among them.
JOHN 5:16, 18
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and
sought to slay him, because he had done these
things on the sabbath day. Therefore the Jews
sought the more to kill him, because he not only had
broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his
Father, making himself equal with God.
9. WHICH TABLET OF THE LAW?
GOD’S [CHURCH] OR MAN’S [STATE]
JOHN 19:6, 7
When the chief priests therefore and officers saw
him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify
[him]. Pilate [state] saith unto them, Take ye him,
and crucify [him]: for I find no fault in him. The
Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our
law he ought to die, because he made himself the
Son of God.
JOHN 18:38
Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he
had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and
saith unto them, I find in him no fault [at all].
10. THE JEWS [RELIGIOUS] SOUGHT THE
HELP OF THE STATE [POLITICAL] TO
CRUCIFY JESUS
JOHN 18:30, 31
They answered and said unto him, If he were not a
malefactor, we would not have delivered him up
unto thee. Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him,
and judge him according to your law. The Jews
therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to
put any man to death:
JOHN 18:38 [Not guilty] JOHN 19:4, 6 [Not guilty]
JOHN 18:36
Jesus says, “My kingdom is not of this world...”
11. CHURCH AND STATE DRAMA: END-
TIME DEJA VU [DAYZHAA VOO]
JOHN 16:1, 2
These things have I spoken unto you, that ye
should not be offended. They shall put you out
of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that
whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth
God service.
ACTS 4:18, 19 [PETER & JOHN] “COUNCIL”
And they called them, and commanded them not
to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
But Peter and John answered and said unto them,
Whether it be right in the sight of God to
hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
13. GOD’S WARNING TO ISRAEL
JEREMIAH 27:4-8
…Thus shall ye say unto your masters; I have made
the earth, the man and the beast that [are] upon the
ground, by my great power and by my outstretched
arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet
unto me. And now have I given all these lands into
the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon,
my servant; and the beasts of the field have I given
him also to serve him. And all nations shall serve
him, and his son, and his son's son, until the very
time of his land come: and then many nations and
great kings shall serve themselves of him. ...that
nation will I punish, saith the LORD, with the
sword, and with the famine, and with the
pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
14. THREE HEBREW BOYS: GOD OR
NEBUCHADNEZZAR?
DANIEL 3:16-18, 21
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and
said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we [are] not
careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be [so],
our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from
the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us]
out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known
unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods,
nor worship the golden image which thou hast set
up. Then these men were bound in their coats, their
hosen, and their hats, and their [other] garments, and
were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
15. A DECREE: THE KING’S LAW
DANIEL 3:28, 29
Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed [be]
the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who
hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that
trusted in him, and have changed the king's word,
and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve
nor worship any god, except their own God.
Therefore I make a decree, That every people,
nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss
against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and against
Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses
shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other
God that can deliver after this sort.
16. HEBREWS BOYS: ALLEGIANCE
DANIEL 6:9, 10, 25, 26
Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the
decree. Now when Daniel knew that the writing was
signed, he went into his house; and his windows
being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he
kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and
prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did a
foretime. Then king Darius wrote unto all people,
nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth;
Peace be multiplied unto you. I make a decree, That
in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and
fear before the God of Daniel: for he [is] the living
God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom [that]
which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion
[shall be even] unto the end.
17. BABYLON USES THE STATE WHICH
ENFORCES HER DECREE
REVELATION 13:15
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.
18. UNION: CHURCH [RELIGIOUS] AND
STATE [CIVIL] AMALGAMATION
Any religious system that uses the state to
force people to believe in a certain way is
committing an abomination against the
Almighty God.
