THE SEVEN MOUNTAIN MANDATE PART 4: THE LOVE OF MONEY

For centuries, the Roman Catholic Church has fraudulently told the world that it holds the keys to salvation. It has even placed these keys, symbolizing its usurped authority over all things in heaven and in earth, on the Vatican flag.i And it has made merchandise of salvation, advertising that people can pay to enter the kingdom of heaven, selling forgiveness by issuing “indulgences” and relaxed punishments for sin.


Catholicism teaches the unbiblical doctrine of eternal torment in hell, as well as the doctrine of purgatory, another place of punishment in addition to hell where a person must supposedly suffer for their sins and be refined before going to heaven. The Catechism of the Catholic Church states, “All who die in God’s grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven”.i But (surprise, surprise!!) this process can be rapidly sped up, it is claimed, as long as the living are willing to pony up and pay for expedited cleansing of the dead. In the 15th century, Johann Tetzel, one of these false hawkers of salvation, famously broadcast that, "As soon as a coin in the coffer rings, the soul from purgatory springs."


This blasphemous and shameless exploitation of public ignorance and fear led Martin Luther in his 95 Thesis to proclaim that “They preach only human doctrines who say that as soon as the money clinks into the money chest, the soul flies out of purgatory."ii Luther wrote that indulgences were sold by the papacy for the most vile crimes, so that even if a person had raped Jesus’ mother they could get forgiveness by paying money to the Pope.iv


The practice of issuing indulgences is still practiced by the Papacy today. Pope Francis before his death offered indulgences for sin and escape from purgatory during the Jubilee year of 2025.v These indulgences can be obtained, according to the Catholic Church, by going on a pilgrimage to Rome.


Another indication that the New Apostolic Reformation is among the daughters of the Roman Church of Revelation 17 is its obsession with the accumulation of filthy lucre.


C. Peter Wagner, church growth specialist, self-styled “apostle”, and often-credited originator of the name, “New Apostolic Reformation”, declares that, “Prosperity is the will of God, while poverty is the will of Satan.vi Wagner claimed that the reason Christianity had not succeeded in the Gospel commission is because it did not have enough money, asserting that money is the key to societal transformation.vii NAR Apostle Bill Johnson claims that “poverty is demonic”.viii


Wagner taught that the NAR apostles needed to enter spiritual warfare with the powerful demons that controlled the seven mountains of society, and that “we will not experience sustained societal reformation until we bind the spirit of poverty through the blood.”ix NAR apostle Lance Walnau claims that Christianity doesn’t need more conversions to shift the culture, what it needs is “more disciples in the right places, the high places.”x It seems to have eluded Mr. Walnau that the apostate kings of ancient Israels also went to the high places to practice their idolatry.xi


According to the teachings of NAR apostles, these assertions aren’t just opinions, either. “While there are several things that distinguish apostles from other members of the Body of Christ, the major characteristic that stands out over the others is their exceptional authority.”vii Like mother like daughter: the claim to authority is also papal.

So, is the problem with the advancement of the Gospel in this world due to a lack of funds? Is Jesus waiting for His people to get a big pot of money before He can send them out successfully to do His work? Is that biblical, or is it unbliblical? The test of all doctrine is the Scriptures. We are to compare the teachings of the NAR with the Bible: “To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them” – Isaiah 8:20.


The Pope claims to be the successor of Peter. He makes this boastful claim in regard to the same Apostle Peter who said to the lame man who looked to him for alms, “silver and gold have I none” – Acts 3:6. Jesus instructed the apostles to take “neither bread, neither money” (Luke 9:3) when they went out in ministry: they were to rely on the power and providence of God. But the Popes of Rome could hardly say that they have no silver or gold. The Vatican is full of both silver and gold, and all manner of costly riches in extraordinary abundance.

When Simon Magus attempted to purchase salvation and the power to work miracles, Peter sternly denounced him, saying, “They money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money” – Acts 8:20.


But Peter wasn’t finished. He continues: “Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God” – Acts 8:21. Simon had no lot or part in the Gospel ministry.


The Bible says that “the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows” – 1 Timothy 6:10.


Who had the money bag during the time Jesus was with His apostles on earth? It wasn’t Peter – it was Judas. But Judas was a thief, and he was stealing from the money bag.


Paula White Cain, another of the New Apostolic Reformation’s Apostles and official leader of the White House Faith office, recently also monetized the blessings of heaven by selling Passover cups to her followers, and promising them that if they donated more than $1000 they would receive a crystal cross and 7 blessings, including God’s assignment of an angel to them, prosperity, healing, long life, etc.



So dull has the sensibilities of Christianity become that there was hardly a ripple in response to Paul White’s outrageous advertisements. But make no mistake, promising God’s blessings in exchange for money is a page straight out of the papal playbook. God does not send angels, healing or long life if you give Paula White a thousand dollars. Martin Luther would have cried out against Paul White and her greed and exploitation of the Gospel in the same way he cried out against the corruption of the Papacy.


Notably missing from the New Apostolic Reformation’s theology is the warning to the world of the mark of the beast, which includes the end-time test where all those faithful to Christ will be unable to buy or sell – Revelation 13:17. The NAR claims that poverty is “demonic”, but Jesus was poor in this earth’s goods, and so were His apostles. The faithful end time church will also be impoverished because governments around the world, influenced by the apostate churches, will prevent those who do not have the mark of the beast from buying or selling.


Do not be deceived, Friends. The words of Christ sound the warning down to our generation. At the end, those who have hoarded earthly wealth “will cast it to the moles and the bats”, and “call for the rocks to fall” on them – Isaiah 2:19-21; Luke 23:30; Revelation 6:16. A wealthy church is no sign of the favor of God at the end, for Babylon is declared by the angel of Revelation 17 to be clothed in wealth – Revelation 17:4. The true church of God, in contrast, will be impoverished as it goes through end time events, unable to buy or sell. But like the early church, it will once more be full of the Holy Spirit, having finally heeded Christ’s message to the Laodicean Church to buy of Him gold tried in the fire, and the white raiment of the righteousness of Christ – Revelation 3:18.

May it be so.


Even so, come Lord Jesus.

On November 13, 2025, the Michigan House of Representatives passed House Resolution 222 which officially declares November 23, 2025, as “Christ the King Sunday”. Since we had never heard of this festival some research was in order. The Feast of Christ the King is an annual Catholic holy day instituted by Pope Pius XI in 1925 in an encyclical entitled Quas Primas, Latin for “In the First”. i SPOILER ALERT: If you have read papal encyclicals before, this one is just as pretentiously arrogant as the rest of them, full of flowery rubbish the substance of which is that the pope ought to be reinstated as ruler of the world, and outrageous lies about utopia on planet earth if this were to occur. The encyclical would be ridiculous but for the deadly serious history of the murder of millions of martyrs by the Papacy. Rome never changes. Quas Primas was written by Pius XI prior to the Lateran Pact in 1929 which restored civil power to the Papacy. In consequence, the encyclical is a manifesto for the restoration of the union of church and state, and contains a number of statements to this effect: If We ordain that the whole Catholic world shall revere Christ as King, We shall minister to the need of the present day, and at the same time provide an excellent remedy for the plague which now infects society. We refer to the plague of anti-clericalism, its errors and impious activities. [Anticlericalism is criticism of the clergy, especially clergy who are always meddling with civil power]. … Moreover, the annual and universal celebration of the feast of the Kingship of Christ will draw attention to the evils which anticlericalism has brought upon society in drawing men away from Christ, and will also do much to remedy them. While nations insult the beloved name of our Redeemer by suppressing all mention of it in their conferences and parliaments, we must all the more loudly proclaim his kingly dignity and power, all the more universally affirm his rights. … When we pay honor to the princely dignity of Christ, men will doubtless be reminded that the Church, founded by Christ as a perfect society, has a natural and inalienable right to perfect freedom and immunity from the power of the state; and that in fulfilling the task committed to her by God of teaching, ruling, and guiding to eternal bliss those who belong to the kingdom of Christ, she cannot be subject to any external power. … But how is this connected to Resolution 222? Why is the Michigan House of Representatives making resolutions to impose Catholic religious festivals on the people of Michigan, most of whom are not Catholic? The answer is that Christian Nationalists today want the same thing Pius XI wanted when he wrote Quas Primas in 1925, and created the Feast of Christ the King: a union of church and state. The Michigan resolution was sponsored by Republican state Representative and Catholic, Josh Schriver, who also sponsored a resolution in September 2025 to honor Pope Leo XIV upon his election as pope. Mr. Schriver has ties to the so-called Christian Nationalist movement and its ongoing efforts to unite church and state in America. In a 2023 talk radio interview on WCHY-FM, Mr. Schriver declared that “it's God who appoints our elective officials. Honestly, I work for God and not for man. And so I answer to one person, and that's Jesus Christ.” Mr. Schriver’s assertion that he is not accountable to the citizens of the 66 th district is something they will perhaps remember when they have occasion to revisit the ballot box. But we digress. More to the point, the Michigan House of Representatives has taken steps to unite church and state, a violation of the Establishment Clause which is extended to apply to the individual states via the 14 th Amendment. See Everson v. Board of Education, 330 U.S. 1 (1947) - https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/330/1/. Bible prophecy foretells of a coming union of church and state in America, and in the world at large, and the imposition of the mark of papal authority, which is Sunday sacredness. It is not so far fetched as one watches events in the state of Michigan.

Humanity is accelerating toward the fulfillment of Bible prophecy and the events warned of in Revelation 13-18. Ecumenism is bringing Protestantism back into harmony with the Papacy. The wall of separation between church and state is under attack from religeonists who covet state power to compel their dogmas on the human population. We have passed another signpost. The Church of England split from the Roman Catholic Church in 1534 during the Reformation over a dispute about papal authority and the annulment of Henry VIII’s marriage. As a result of this schism, Anglicans have long had an established creed similar to the Westminster Confession of the Reformed Church. Like the Westminster Confession, the “39 Articles of Anglicanism” formally rejects the papal claim to universal supremacy for the Bishop of Rome. The 39 Articles of Anglicanism include the following: “As the Church of Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Antioch, have erred, so also the Church of Rome hath erred, not only in their living and manner of Ceremonies, but also in matters of Faith”; “The Romeish Doctrine concerning Purgatory, Pardons, Worshiping and Adoration, as well of Images as of Relics, and also Invocation of Saints, is a fond thing, vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God”, “It is a thing plainly repugnant to the Word of God, and the custom of the Primitive Church to have public Prayer in the Church, or to minister the Sacraments, in a tongue not understanded of the people”, “Bishops, Priests, and Deacons, are not commanded by God's Law, either to vow the estate of single life, or to abstain from marriage: therefore it is lawful for them, as for all other Christian men, to marry at their own discretion, as they shall judge the same to serve better to godliness”, and “ The Bishop of Rome hath no jurisdiction in this Realm of England.” The Popes assert they “hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty”. England rejected these boastful claims and the Pope’s presumptuous authority to dominate the minds and hearts of humanity. It is not a coincidence that while many other European countries were suffering under the oppression of the Inquisition, England was advancing toward empire. So vast was is influence at one time it was famously even claimed that “the sun never sets on the British empire”. But a great change has come. For some decades England, which never sufficiently distanced herself from Rome doctrineally, has been increasingly friendly toward the Papacy. Today, the globalism of the Roman pontiff is the globalism of King Charles III. The climate change agendas of Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV are also shared by King Charles III, the latter of who’s father publicly advocated for population reduction and compared humanity to a “plague”. England is also adopting digital IDs and carrying out mass surveillance and censorship on its own citizens, a practice near to the hearts of the prelates of Rome, to be sure. And now, King Charles III, who holds the title of not only king but Supreme Governor of the Anglican Church, is headed to Rome to hold a public prayer ceremony with Pope Leo XIV. The leader of the Anglican Church has not engaged in public prayer with the Bishop of Rome for approximately 500 years. According to the Royal Palace, “This will be the first state visit, since the Reformation, where the Pope and the Monarch will pray together in an ecumenical service in the Sistine Chapel, and the first time the monarch will have attended a service in St Paul’s Outside the Walls, a church with an historic connection to the English Crown.” According to MSN News, Charles III will also accept a new title. “Charles is also being recogenised for the British monarchy’s historic association with the Papal Basilica of St Paul’s Outside the Walls in Rome, the seat of a Benedictine Abbey, and will be made “Royal Confrater” of the abbey.” Rome never changes. The Papacy has not retreated one letter from its false doctrines. It still claims authority over this earth. It still teaches the false doctrine of purgatory and forbids priests to marry, as well as many more false doctrines which Protestants, including Anglicans, object to. So why this ecumenical development today? The change is with the Anglican Church, which is drifting back toward the once-estranged mother as prophecy foretells. The light of sola scriptura that was brought to England by the Bible is being rejected. It seeks the company of the pope, the pretender to the throne of Christ. Like Israel of old, Anglicanism will say, “we have no king but Caesar.” Of all the Protestant denominations, Anglicanism is the closest to Catholicism. The pageantry and formal rites still have many similarities. England mirrors the union of church and state of Roman Catholicism by unifying church and state in the person of the monarch of England. It has no pope, but it has a king who claims to be the head of the church. Now that king will go to Rome. All roads lead there, it is said, and Protestantism has set itself to prove it. The sun is setting on the British empire after all.
