According to the Holy Scriptures, to have faith is to live your life according to what you understand the Bible to teach. In the New Testament Book of Hebrews, chapter 11, tells us “without faith one cannot please God.”

Throughout the books of the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, it warns that “Faith without works is dead.” It takes more than accepting with your intellect that Jesus is God. Lucifer and his fallen angels are also in agreement to that reality. There is a faith that is required to be born again, to receive eternal life, which is different than the other types of faith. For example, faith in doctors to obey their recommendations and take their prescriptions or faith in education, religion, science, the nation or in oneself.

Germany had faith in their government under Hitler, and it led to World War II and millions of deaths of innocent people. Germany had faith in their political leader, which led to the hatred and biases toward other people and the murder of innocent Jews. Innocent children and others who were disabled, were experimented upon and killed, as now a society governed by a beast decided they were not fit to live.

In Finland today people have many different types of faith, but few have the type of faith that Jesus Christ requires to be a true Christian. The faith of the Scriptures (Bible) is a faith that is manifested in a lifestyle of adhering to the Word of God,. deliberately making all of our choices based on what the Bible teaches. In Finland today there is such a diversity of, not only religions, but of churches and denominations with different doctrines and beliefs.

In the world many times diversity is healthy, as in business the competition brings down exorbitant prices. But, in Christianity, diversity in the interpretation of Scripture, doctrine, beliefs and values is the result of sin.

Finland today has lost its direction. Many times there appears to be no right and wrong as man is left to choose his own standards of morality based on philosophy, religion, secular humanism, etc., instead of the teachings of Jesus Christ. In Finland, the Government and the people are becoming a law unto themselves with a self-serving mind, which is a beast mentality. This has now become the norm in Finland.

Antichrist stands for a lawless man, and we have lawlessness in most of our churches today throughout Finland. Most churches and Christians in Finland have stood by feebly and compromised. They have cowardly watched their nation becoming de-Christianized.

God made us different than the animals, which live by instinct. We are made in His image, and He breathed His Holy Spirit into man which became a living soul (Genesis 2:7). Mankind has a conscious and can choose his morality. He chooses whether to produce life or to kill the life he conceived while the baby is still in the womb.

Animals have sex by instinct, the way God made them for reproduction; but God gave man the ability to choose sex for pleasure (intimacy), as well as reproduction. The only restrictions placed on man concerning sex were to be within the confines of marriage and to be responsible for that act when a life is conceived (Psalms 127:3). Instinct vs. conscious, animal vs. man... two different creatures made by the creator, totally different. Man to have fellowship with God, and animal to be used by man (Genesis 1:26-30).

Throughout the Scriptures there are three fundamental crimes which bring a sentence of judgment upon a nation. All through Scripture the Lord warns His children not to mix with other religions nor worship their gods or pray at their altars and groves (Psalms 106:34-37). When we sin against God in this area, it is called Idolatry. Idolatry is anything we put in a higher priority than Jesus Christ. Religions, philosophies, mother earth, the forests, save the whales, etc. Humanism essentially is living a life by faith in oneself where man decides what is important instead of what God has already stated. Humanism is very selfish , which leads to greed, gluttony, arrogance, pride, strife, rebellion, fighting, etc.

The second crime is Immorality. Immorality manifests its filthy lust in fornication, adultery, homosexuality, lesbianism, cross-dressing, incest, sodomy, rape, bestiality, prostitution, pornography, and so on. Immorality blasphemes marriage as an institution created by God to protect the sanctity of relationships and sexual intercourse. (Genesis 2:18,21-25). Marriage has responsibilities toward one another so a person doesn’t become a beast, which is total insensitivity to the needs of anyone other than himself. Marriage keeps us on the human level instead of deteriorating to the animal kingdom. Sexual relations within the framework of marriage offers the greatest of benefits of the experience, as well as protection against diseases which attack a person when they violate the personal constitution in which they were made. Immorality’s demonic purpose is to reduce man to a beast where only his own needs matter. In this way rebellion can lead to self-destruction, war, famine, and death.

The third crime which mandates judgment upon a nation is Murder of the innocents by legal sanction (Psalm 106:38-41; Hosea 4:1-6; Lev. 20:4-5; Exodus 23:7). Murder attacks the helpless, the defenseless and the innocent. When people or nations commit this sin, it reflects the nature of a beast. It shows pride, selfishness, and insensitivity to the needs of other people. This is totally opposite of what a human was created for and should reflect (Mark 12:29-31).

Humanism turns men into beasts with themselves as their first priority, thus devaluating their neighbor’s life and property. Jesus teaches that God values human life above all else and teaches us to consider others above ourselves (Matthew 10:29-31; Romans 12:3-10). The characteristics of humanism which create the attitudes, values, and actions of a beast are found in Galatians 5:19-21.

The characteristics of what Jesus taught to mankind are found in Galatians 5:22-23. One treasures life and respects others, whereas the humanist devalues life and uses others. One produces peace on earth, whereas the other produces jealousy, envy, anger, strife, discord, poverty, gluttony, violence, conspiracy, oppression, slander, injustice, biases, divisions, death, etc.

There are three levels of murder in a nation which reflect the depths of the beast mentality within the nation. The first level is people killing other people (common murder), reported in the news. The second level involves the murder of the helpless or innocents...the poor, aged, infirm, children, widows, babies (Exodus 23:6-7). The third level of murder which God especially hates is the murder of the innocents by official sanction. This really reflects how spiritually debauched and degenerate the society has become when it premeditates and plans murder. This is first degree murder for a nation and brings God's sentence of Judgment.

God condemned other nations for polytheism, which led to the murder of the innocents. These nations, by trying to please their myriad of gods and goddesses (Baal, El, Dagon, Ashtoreth, El, Asherah, Anat, Molech etc.), legally offered up their babies so they would have prosperity. The Canaanites were mostly worried over an abundant harvest, and their gods with human sexual prostitutes can be characterized as “fertility religion” so they could produce prosperity with their crops.

Today in Finland, in trying to please itself through an ideology of humanism and other religions which degrade the value of human life, the law legalizing murder of the most innocent of babies was created called Abortion. Finland is guilty of apostasy and idolatry which has led to the sins of immorality and murder (abortion).

It is clear in Psalm 139:13-16 that God has a very special personal regard for the embryo, which begins from the time of its inception. God is against Finland for premeditatively, callously, selfishly killing her babies (Lev. 20:4-5). Jesus’ incarnation was a pre-known fact. God had special words of promise for the parents of Isaac, Samson, Samuel and John the Baptist. What if Mary or the other mothers had decided to have an abortion? In Finland, children are no longer the object of every doctor’s concern, but have become the targets, instead, by many for extermination.

Planned Parenthood is a curse upon a nation as it deliberately seeks to destroy the morality and life of a nation through indoctrination of a false gospel from Lucifer, brainwashing Finland to reject the values of our Creator and to prepare her to follow the Beast of Revelation eventually. Planned Parenthood in one of their pamphlets encouraged people to “accept sex for what it is, for whatever pleasure it gives you.” Furthermore, it described saving sex until marriage as the ‘old mythology,’ claiming those that held that view were ‘old-fashioned.’ ”
“Cry of the Innocents” by John O.Anderson.

Planned Parenthood speaks not of “spouses” but of “sexual partners”, and they use terms “sexually active” instead of “fornication.” If a child is conceived which is “unwanted”, they suggest abortion. Finland is also guilty of allowing the television and films to promote sexual promiscuity, homosexuality, adultery, fornication, abortion, and other dehumanizing actions, attitudes, values, and beliefs to be changing the minds and hearts of the people into becoming and accepting a “New World Order”...a “One World Government” led by the Antichrist.

Finland is no longer a nation with the values of God, but a nation with the values of the animal kingdom.

PROPHECY

TO

FINLAND

On May 10, 2000, the Lord gave
the following word to Prophet
Jonathan Hansen:

"Finland, Finland a land of beauty and might. You are one of the more beautiful countries that I made, yet you are so far from Me in true knowledge and relationship. You do not know Me personally as I made you to do, but you only have heard about Me in song, dance and ritual. You have been deceived, lied to by pastor and priest, and now you blame Me for your follies.

I, the Lord God, Jehovah Jireh your provider, will never fail you, but you have turned your back on Me. You have failed Me through your idolatry. You have put yourselves ahead of Me in your thoughts, deeds, and words. You have blasphemed My holy name through your traditions and folklore, yet I have never turned My back completely on you.

You are a nation of might, meaning a nation of stubbornness, yet it is not all bad. To be stubborn for truth is good, but to be stubborn for ignorance is folly and pride. Yes, you are a proud and arrogant people. Self-righteous in some of your ways, yet full of compulsion. Turn to Me with your whole heart, and I will forgive you and heal your land. Continue to deny Me, to fight against Me and My ways and people, and I will surely damn you.

You are a mighty people who have fought evil in a number of ways in the past. Through war, religion and medicine you have conquered many enemies, yet you did not find Me as a people, as a nation. I, the Lord God, am coming with a sword, with famine, and with pestilence. Turn to Me with your whole heart, mind, and soul, and I will be your Protector. Reject and deny Me as your only God through Jesus Christ, and I will deny you.

Do not conform to the world, but be transformed with the renewal of your minds. I am coming back to judge, to separate, and to destroy. Draw close to Me now while there is still time, for fire is coming, and famine, and pestilence. Earthquakes and heartaches will intensify until none can deny the Lord is speaking, and hell and judgment is knocking at the door.

Russia will be destroyed as a power with fire and brimstone, and you along with it for its many sins, killings and blasphemies. So, turn away now from your prejudice and pride and self reliance...self-reliance built on compromise and friendships with the world’s leaders, nations, and follies. As they have broken their backs trying to please the gods of this world, so you are breaking your backs trying to comply with their wishes, which will only intensify and terminate your sovereignty as a free people and nation.

Now is the time to call upon Me with all your heart, for the time is fast closing when you will call and I will not answer, as the season for all things comes to a close and the new millennium which I will start draws near.

INTERPRETATION

Much of the Prophetic Word is self-explanatory, and as such, I will give no further explanation on it.

The Lord is saying the country you live in is beautiful because He made it that way. You mentally know there is a God, but individually most of the Finnish people do not have a relationship with Jesus Christ. You do not study the Bible, so consequently you have believed lies taught to you by your priests, pastors, rituals, etc.

The article explains how you the people of Finland are in idolatry by making your own decisions, most of them going directly against Jesus’ teachings in the Bible. You, the Finnish people, have so much folklore and traditions that take the focus off the reality of Jesus Christ so the children believe in myths and fairy tales rather than the living God. This is an abomination to the Lord Jesus Christ.

You celebrate Easter without even knowing that the name Easter came from the Syrian goddess, Astarte, the queen of heaven. She was a pagan fertility goddess who gave birth to the pagan sun-god. Easter rabbits and eggs also are pagan fertility symbols.

The true day Jesus rose from the tomb should be called Resurrection Day. One should focus on the glory of Jesus dying for our sins, conquering death and giving all people eternal life if they will follow in obedience.

Stories and tales of witches out especially on Walpurgis Night are a folk tradition in Central Europe. In Finnish villages there is a custom where children go begging, carrying broomsticks, coffee pots and bunches of decorated virpovitsa willow twigs. Little girls and sometimes boys dressed as witches go door to door, reciting good luck poems in return for money and sweets. This, again, is an abomination before the Lord.

You stubbornly hold on to your traditions like Christmas. Jesus was not born on the pagan festival of the Saturnalia, on December 25th, but at the Hebrew/Christian Feast of Tabernacles, which is in the fall of the year. Why do you compromise the day and make up fables of Santa Claus, reindeer, etc. All of this takes the focus off Jesus. When you say “Merry Christmas”, most people think you are telling them to go have a party (drinking, etc.). Why don’t you say “Jesus loves you”? One the world accepts as merry making (carousing) and good business, where the other identifies Jesus Christ.

The nation of Finland has seen coercion, both as a victim as well as the nation applying pressure (force) and resistance. You have fought constant wars and evil with Russia, culminating in the eventual loss of Finland to Russia in 1809, but in 1917 the Finnish Senate declared independence. Finland was once a part of Sweden and fought a religious reformation. You have suffered famine before, but nothing compared to what is coming. You are coerced by the world (United Nations and European Union), and they are against Me, the living God. Russia will start World War III and loose, along with her allies. Russia will no longer be a power to be afraid of after the coming war. Stay away from Russia and side not with her, or be judged with Russia.

The Beast described in the book of Revelation leading the nations of the world will bring much trouble such as the world has never seen before and eventually will be judged. You will be judged along with those nations that will back the Beast Government. Much economic trouble, fighting, disease and death are coming to the nations. Read Revelation chapters 6-20. Christians choose this day who you will serve. Either idolatry (yourselves) or the Word of God. 2 Chronicles 7:14; Ezekiel 3:7-21; 14:13-20; 33:1-9; Exodus 8:21-23; 9:25-26; 12:27-30; Revelation 7:1-3
