On Jan 9th, 2007; during
evening time, I had the occasion to listen in on Jimmy Akin give answers to
callers on a Catholic radio program called "Catholic Answers Live". It is a
daily call-in radio program that airs live Monday through Friday on EWTN Global
Catholic Radio S/W (short-wave). Jerry Usher is the host of the program with
regular guests like Karl Keating, Jimmy Akin, Rosalind Moss, a Christian Jewish
person, Tim Staples, Jim Blackburn and Jason Evert. They are deemed to be
apologetics, defenders of the Catholic faith who answer a variety of questions
pertaining to Catholic issues and biblical passages that are asked by their
callers on this program. I have found these people will not hesitate to lie when
defending the Roman Catholic Church or its teachings. I had found that these
ex-protestants tend to lie quite regularly and have a lot of practice lying to
their congregation while preaching their perverted, apostate Christian religion.
I recall Jimmy Akin once explained to a caller that the woman in Revelation
12:1; "A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the
moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars", was refering to
Mary, the mother of their fictitious god. In truth, that passage refers to the
nation of Israel. That depiction of a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon
under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars come from the Old
Testament. It is from this women (Israel) from whom Yeshua, the Aninted One,
will come forth. These Christians tend to take passages out of contexts or give
a new spin on passages where it do not belong or represent. They can invent and
make all kinds of claims, but that do not make it a reality. These Christians
tend to do a lot of that during their preaching. On this segment Jimmy Akin, who
had been a protestant preacher and became a catholic was answering the callers
questions. A caller had asked Jimmy Akin, about the seperasion of church and
state controversy of the Roman Catholic church. Akin made some interesting
comments about people who speak against the Roman Catholic church. He claims
that such people who accuse the church to have been directly involved in the
political affairs of the state are basically liars and present no documentation
to back-up those accusations. I believe that I had prove Jimmy Akin wrong in my
"Persecution by Christians" and other writings on my web pages. Another question
was asked by another caller which was about the "Unpardonable Sin" against the
Holy Spirit. You would not believe what this jerk told that caller. He said that
as long as you are alive and can breath, you can go into confession and that sin
would be absolved by the priest. It seems that this Jimmy Akin fellow had
forgotten what the New Testament passages says about sinning against the Holy
Spirit. Here's documentation for you Jimmy! Mark 3; 29 but whoever may blaspheme
against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin".
Matthew 12; 32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven
him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him,
neither in this age, nor in that which is to come. Luke 12; 10 Everyone who
speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme
against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. Older New Testament versions wrote
it like this; Everyone who speaks a word against GOD or the Son of Man will be
forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
Or; but whoever blaspheme against GOD or the Son of Man, that sin will be
forgiven, but whosoever blaspheme against the Holy Spirit that sin is never
forgiven, but is guilty of an eternal sin". I can tell you through my personal
observation, that there are a great many Catholic priests and Protestant
preachers who have already committed that "Unpardonable Sin". Now I know that a
great many catholic and protestant preachers tend to lie profusely during their
preaching, I notice that it must be part of their trade, so I am not shocked by
any of Jimmy Akin statements. Unfortunately, many of the guest speakers there
tend to lie or give half-truths or totally omit many facts about the catholic
church and the people who represent it. Catholics going to sources like
"Catholic Answers Live" instead of going to un-bias sources to get the truth
about the religion of Christianity or about the Catholic church, is like asking
a fox who is guarding the chicken coop if he had eaten any chickens.
