Illuminati Secret Societies Are Funding Terrorist Networks

Written by Alberta Parish -   http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76588423378&topic=26651 Recent news concerning a suspected suicide bomber who killed 31 people and injured countless others at the Moscow International Airport has set off a chain of events once more, which the globalists can then use to push their agenda of a global society with a global economy. The Illuminati secret societies are funding terrorist networks all around the world. They have Illuminati plants within each extremist terror organization be it Al-Qaeda, Al-Shabaab, the Neo Nazis, and so forth.

Look how the drug cartels are slowly destroying the Mexican government, which was a long planned accomplishment of the secret societies, often operating in the name of open organizations and many times in covert organizations, which employ secret operatives to assassinate individuals.

The Jury Is Still Out

By   Overseer Christopher J. Harris   Topic:  The Power Of The Tongue Americans have an infatuation with police shows, crime antics, and mysteries.  On an average night in America, the television line-up of shows reveals dozens of episodes that involve police, crime stories, unsolved mysteries, and the like.  It is really easy to get caught into the story line as it unfolds, only to be left without a clear answer at the end of the show. The writers, producers, and actors invite you to come back and watch the show next week. Many of these shows that involve courtrooms, judges, and juries, generally end up with a clear choice of guilt or innocence by the jury.  But then there are those rare occasions where the jury deliberates for extended periods of time, leaving everyone simply waiting to see the end result of the case. Similarly, our spiritual lives have a case that is pending and the jury is still out.  The crimes that we’ve been charged ...
