WHAT DID MARK TWAIN SAY ABOUT CHRISTIAN SCIENCE? 
Gerald Bergman, PHD, wrote about the time Mark Twain encountered a Christian Science practitioner—and set her straight: “On a vacation Twain fell off a cliff in Austria and ‘broke some arms and legs and one thing or another.’ After being rescued by local peasants, he searched in vain for a doctor. Finally, a Christian Science practitioner was located who was vacationing in the village. Unable to come immediately she sent Twain the message to relax because there was nothing wrong with him, and his feelings of pain were ‘imagined,’ therefore he needed no treatment. 
The practitioner, a large middle-aged woman with an austere face, 
later came to help Twain deal with his imagined broken bones. When trying to convince Mr. Twain that the pain he was then experiencing didn’t exist, she accidentally raked her hand on a pin in her dress, said “ouch” in pain, then tranquilly went on trying to convince Mr. Twain that pain doesn’t exist. Needless to say, she failed to convince Mr. Twain that his bones did not hurt and there was no such thing as pain. Fortunately, Mr. Twain survived, no doubt because he found someone who was concerned with setting bones instead of selling a dangerous pseudoscientific religious philosophy. Mr. Twain’s 
book is written to bring many chuckles, but the religion it discusses 
is about the serious business of death. Many tragic deaths 
have occurred due to [Mary Baker] Eddy’s teachings.” | image tagged in mark twain,christian science,cult,god,bible,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

WHAT IS THE TRUTH ABOUT THE RELIGION OF “CHRISTIAN” “SCIENCE”? [1 of 2] Do accidents really happen? This quote (from a well-written 1908 article by A.C. Dixon) explains The Truth About “Christian Science”: “The basis of ‘Christian Science’ is the proposition that ‘God is everything and matter has no reality, but is an illusion of mortal mind. Sin, sickness and death have no reality, but are illusions of mortal mind. All evils such as plagues, tornadoes, cyclones, fires, earthquakes and accidents have no reality, but are illusions of mortal mind.’ ” These crazy ideas are the false teachings of Christian Science founder Mary Baker Eddy, who taught about the supposed “allness” of soul and spirit, and the nothingness of matter. Even today, the religion of Christian Science gets all that wrong because they follow her teachings as their ultimate source of authority, rather than the true Word of God in the Bible. They need to rely on Scripture, rather than Eddy’s false teachings that corrupt biblical truth. And the lies put out by many cults were ultimately given to 
them through contact with lying demons. By that, I mean organizations like 
the Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormonism, and Seventh Day Adventists. Whenever unfortunate followers of those false faiths get back to the Bible, they start to understand how their corrupt founders and leaders, like Mormonism’s Joseph Smith—from a family of practicing witches—put out false claims that contradict the Bible. Charles Taze Russell and Judge Rutherford, the first two leaders of Jehovah’s Witnesses, produced loads of anti-biblical teachings. Like Christian Science and its double-talking founder Mary Baker Eddy, followers of Seventh Day Adventists are taught to ultimately rely on the unbiblical teachings of Ellen G White. But reading the Bible for ourselves forces us to choose one set of ideas over the other, because the Bible contradicts mankind’s corrupt teachings—both cannot be true. Those cult members who finally get into God’s Word, inevitably find their group lied to them. As Christians, our goal must to get duped followers of false faiths to see their Bibles as the ultimate source of authority, the roadmap for life that truthfully explains the nature of God and man, the understanding that sin is real, and the personal work of Jesus that has saved us 
from an eternal penalty in hell, if only we would humble ourselves enough to 
accept it. We are all immortal, made in God’s image. Where we go after 
this life is our decision—will we accept Christ’s help, or not? | image tagged in christian science,mary baker eddy,cult,religion,god,bible | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE FALSE RELIGION OF “CHRISTIAN” “SCIENCE”? [1 of 2] Founded by Mary Baker Eddy in 1879, Christian Science is not Christian and not Science—not even close. By both secular and biblical definitions, and like all other cults, they get their source of authority wrong: Instead of being a true Christian organization that trusts the Bible, they get their dominant beliefs and practices outside God’s Word. Whenever people get away from following our Creator’s plan, they end up being led by man's ideas and those of the murderous, lying demons that people connect with. Christian Science claims to follow the Bible, but then tweak and 
contort Scripture to make it say what they want, choosing to follow 
the false teachings of Mary Baker Eddy—their ultimate authority. Cults like Christian Science get life’s most important truths wrong, including the nature of man and God, the Trinity, the personal work of Jesus Christ, and the means of reaching a wonderful afterlife (salvation). Unfortunately, many famous people have been duped Christian Science, and those have probably caused millions of others to join. Among past Christian Scientists are Robin Williams, Kelsey Grammer, Val Kilmer, Ellen DeGeneres, Muppets creator Jim Henson, author Danielle Steel, singer Bruce Hornsby, and Metallica’s James Hetfield. Prominent Christian Scientists 
from further back were Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Henry Fonda, 
Robert Duval, Audrey Hepburn, Joan Crawford, Ginger Rodgers, 
Carol Channing, Ernest Hemingway, Doris Day, and Jean Stapleton 
from the 1970s television show All in the Family. | image tagged in christian science,cult,bible,mary baker eddy,god,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

WHAT IS ORTHODOX JUDAISM? [5 of 5] Judaism’s Hasidic-Orthodox branch involves the practice of Kabbalah. Rather than God consciously making all of creation, Kabbalah teaches that God’s emanations (something perceptible but abstract that originates from a source) created everything, and the emanations devolved over time into what we know as angels. Though Kabballah is chalked full of wacky ideas like those, many deceived people have jumped on board because of promotion from world-famous celebrities like Madonna and Britney Spears. If fact, Madonna is more known in Israel for her devotion to Kabbalah than she is for her music. Her zeal for Kabbalah was demonstrated when she 
turned down a prestigious voting position on the Cannes Film Festival jury; because it would have meant missing two Kabbalah meetings. Madonna paid almost $3 million for a London mansion that she has turned into a Kabbalah facility. Through her, Britney Spears got involved with Kabbalah, and now claims it has turned her life around by clearing up negative energy. That belief is similar to what is pushed by L. Ron Hubbard’s false religion of Scientology, which promises to rid followers of negative energy; that is, if he or she gives the organization tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars. 
But it’s all just more repackaging of lies from Satan, leading uninformed 
people down false paths that steer them away from God’s truth in the Bible. 
This most often causes them to die without ever making a decision 
to rely on Jesus, and that rejection of a free relationship and pardon for 
their sins leaves them with an eternity of terror in hell. | image tagged in kabbalah,jew,madonna,hasidic,britney spears,orthodox | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

HOW DO REFORM AND CONSERVATIVE JUDAISM DIFFER FROM ORTHODOX? Reform and Conservative have been modernizing movements within Judaism, versions that have moved away from traditional Orthodox. The Conservative branch has not gotten as far as away from Orthodox as Reform, and the latter has embraced humanism and liberalism—like Liberal Christianity. Reform (liberal) Jews forego much of the Orthodox beliefs and practices, they meet in temples instead of synagogues, and they spiritualize Orthodox doctrines, like those about the “coming” Messiah that Jews are still looking for because they do not believe Jesus fulfilled that role. Reform generally maintains a more inclusive attitude about the world’s assorted beliefs—it’s basically “Come one, come all!” They have caved in and given up on doctrines that go against the modern culture, no longer caring about much of the truth from 
God’s Word, and it is because the world’s new definition of “tolerance” 
has taken priority for them. Today, tolerance means accepting 
and even promoting the sinful and deviant practices of others;; it’s no longer “love the sinner but hate the sin.” Instead, “liberal tolerance” means there cannot be particular truths, so most everything is acceptable, including homosexuality, as well as the foundational occult practices of feminism. We in the Christian Church see that same attitude seeping in with Liberal Christianity—which is really Christianity in name only—so it is not Christianity. They deny the deity of God, His miracles, and the Virgin Birth of Jesus. Because these false churches are shiny on the outside, often meeting in large buildings with stained glass windows and other religious trappings, people think they must be Christian, but those places are empty on the inside, just unsound teachings with no guts—no substance. Reform Judaism and Liberal Christianity are both works-based systems that do not teach God’s biblical gospel 
as the way to salvation through Jesus alone. Conservative Judaism 
is a sort of intermediate level of the religion, a transitional version 
that has evolved into something between the older Orthodox and 
newer Reform. Conservative Judaism makes allowances for 
modern culture, while preserving much of Jewish tradition. | image tagged in jew,reform,conservative,orthodox,israel,bible | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
