Nothing in the article mentions Mr. Theunissen saying that praying to Jesus is idolatry, or mentions setting up religious courts.
hi Crypto.
can we get real please?
quote:
Mr Joop Theunissen Deputy Chief of the NGO branch of ECOSOC signed a proclamation pledging to keep the Laws of Noah.
conclusive data that the UN is moving to do what a High Ranking Official is doing:
Mr.Theunissen [is] saying that praying to Jesus is idolatry, [and] setting up religious courts [is required]:
Theunissen is
Deputy Chief of the NGO branch of ECOSOC - United Nations.
Theunissen represents the United Nations.
Theunissen signed a proclamation - we may assume he read it.
Theunissen signed a proclamation - this means it is formal.
The proclamation he signed is a Pledge - this makes it formal.
The proclamation he signed is a Pledge - this makes it an oath.
quote:
Mr Joop Theunissen Deputy Chief of the NGO branch of ECOSOC signed a proclamation pledging to keep the Laws of Noah.
the Pledge is an oath to keep the Laws of Noah.
Theunissen has pledged to keep the Laws of Noah.
Theunissen knows what the laws of Noah are.
the Laws of Noah/Noahide Laws declare worshipping Jesus Christ, recognizing Him as God is BLASPHEMY AND IDOLATRY.
the punishment ON THE BOOKS is beheading.
Instead the article states that Theunissen has committed himself to the Noachide laws; which say nothing about Jesus specifically (positively or negatively) and mention nothing about "religious courts".
we'll get to this.
i'm suprised, frankly, that you are familiar with The Noahide Laws and have not already denounced them as counterfeit and antichrist, blasphemous in and of themselves.
can we consider that the head that received the deadly wound (70AD)has come back to life?
are we to pay serious heed to Paul's warning of another gospel in Galatians?
Galatians 1:8
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be
accursed.
The Seven Noachide laws are regarded in the Jewish tradition (having a pedigree no later than the Second Temple Period, as can be seen from the quote from the Book of Jubilees) as a general ethical code expected of mankind in general, distinct from the more complex system of instruction (Torah) given to Israel on Mt. Sinai, which is binding only upon the Jewish people.
not so.
So what has transpired is that one man, Joop Theunissen, from the ECOSOC has committed himself to the Noachide laws as a symbol of universal human ethics.
Whatever Jewish rabbis and sages past and present have to say about Jesus or Christian adoration of Him is completely unrelated to Theunissen's personal adoption of the Noachide laws.
are you serious?
interesting.
Nothing is going to come from this. No global one world religion, no international persecution against "Christian idolaters". It's not happening. It's not going to happen. It's paranoia and nothing else.
I have more fear about being accidentally stabbed by a unicorn than the U.N. establishing religious courts to persecute Christians for worshiping Jesus. The very notion is absurd and has no basis in fact or reality.

the UN won't establish the courts.
THE SANHEDRIN already have.

the UN is the political power head of this monster.
what's behind it is a Theocracy....it always has been.
the Noahide Laws are the visible front for the world's people to obey: but the Theocracy running the show is Babylonian Mystery Religion TO THE HILT. it has ZERO to do with Abraham Isaac and Jacob.
but, you are in denial...you'll change your mind when this happens (unless you are a full preterist...not interested in that on this thread):
Mark 13
Jesus Foretells Destruction of the Temple
1And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!
2And Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.
Signs of the Close of the Age
3And as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
4Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign when all these things are about to be accomplished?
5And Jesus began to say to them, See that no one leads you astray.
6Many will come in my name, saying, I am he! and they will lead many astray.
7And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. This must take place, but the end is not yet.
8For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines. These are but the beginning of the birth pains.
9But be on your guard.
For they will deliver you over to councils, and you will be beaten in synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them.
10And the gospel must first be proclaimed to all nations.
11And when they bring you to trial and deliver you over, do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say, but say whatever is given you in that hour, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.
12And brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death.
13And you will be hated by all for my names sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
The Abomination of Desolation
14But when you see the abomination of desolation standing where he ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
15Let the one who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter his house, to take anything out,
16and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak.
17And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days!
18Pray that it may not happen in winter.
19For in those days there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created until now, and never will be.
20And if the Lord had not cut short the days, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days.
21And then if anyone says to you, Look, here is the Christ! or Look, there he is! do not believe it.
22For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, the elect.
23But be on guard; I have told you all things beforehand.
The Coming of the Son of Man
24But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light,
25and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
26And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.
27And then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.
The Lesson of the Fig Tree
28From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near.
29So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that he is near, at the very gates.
30Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.
31Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
No One Knows That Day or Hour
32But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33Be on guard, keep awake.
a For you do not know when the time will come.
34It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants
b in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake.
35Therefore stay awakefor you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows,
c or in the morning
36lest he come suddenly and find you asleep.
37And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.
even if you believe all the above has already been completely fulfilled, please consider the revival of the Sanhedrin after 1600 years...and These Laws, and COUNCILS.
