DEDICATION
The Apostolic History Outline is dedicated to the Lord Jesus Christ. It is
also dedicated to those pious and unknown persons who, through the centuries, kept the biblical tenets that constitute Acts 2:38 alive and utilized.
PREFACE
This book affirms that the UPPER ROOM CHURCH of Acts two, AD 30,
Jerusalem, was alive and doctrinally utilized in every decade since the day of Pentecost until this moment. This is to say, the Church of Acts two never
died and never ceased to function. Further, it never digresssed into lesser form. Specifically, it never became Grecized or Latinized, meaning it was never associated with Catholicism. Moreover, it was never in the hands of Martin Luther.
Apostolic Christian doctrine (Acts 2:1-4, 36, 38; Deuteronomy 6:4) has always been separate and apart from any other religion that would not have or hold Acts two doctrinal tenets.
When the twelve Apostles legally — by divine command (Acts 10:42) —
laid down Acts 2:38 doctrine they understood that it was to be utilized every
decade of the two thousand (2000) year Church Age.

We believe that it somewhat injures the image of Christ’s own NT religion

which was based upon the pristine UPPER ROOM DOCTRINE — to think it
digressed to western Mediterranean Catholicism. Equally, we think it is
incorrect to
say that Luther restored the pure and holy Church that Christ Himself
founded.
(St. Mt. 16:18, Acts 2:1-39). The divinely established Church of Acts 2
could
never digress so as to become controlled by unregenerated men. We think it
wrong
to assume that Martin Luther — in his conductual-averagism — could restore
such a
high and holy doctrine as the Apostles of the Lamb laid down. Acts 2:38
tenets were
always used; the doctrine never needed restoring. We disclaim the step-bystep idea.
We place emphasis upon “The gates of hell shall never prevail against
Christ’s
Church (doctrine).”
This Outline has many proofs with which to assure the reader that the
Biblical
Church of Acts two never died or became something else. Its divine
founding on the
Day of Pentecost insured its eternal continuity.
A Story About Oneness Apostolic History
History of the Judaic-Christian Church started on the Day of Pentecost, at
Jerusalem, AD 33,. We could refer to it as, “History of the Apostolic Church”.
Some of the
basic and fundamental eccelesiology laid down by the NT is found in Acts
2:1-4, 36,

38. This eternal doctrine made history, a lengthy and illustrious history.
    This Apostolic History Outline is published with the good intention of
    acquainting
    interested readers with significant events, personalities, movements, and
    developments
    in the history of the Pentecostal Apostolic Church.
    No longer will Oneness Apostolic Christians be handicapped by a lack of
    knowledge concerning many of those who preceded us in centuries past.
    Monotheistic
    Christianity is no longer shrouded in mystery. Clearly revealed are
    thousands of major
    historical events, events which had important theological, geographical and
    chronological meaning.
    For many Apostolics, believers in Deuteronomy 6:4, it will come as a
    shock to know
    that our Petrine ecclesiology by AD 325 was slandered by the Catholic
    Institution as
    heresy! The so-called Church of Rome invented dogmas for its own use
    which, in a
    sense, made a heretic out of Apostle Peter! Vatican officials greatly
    attempted to defame the divine principles which constitute Acts two doctrine. In fact, Acts
    two doctrinal concepts were ignored by the Catholic hierarchy before AD 325.
    Further, some
    doctrinal roots of most of today’s modern nominal religions have grown
    from the religion of Rome. Obiviously some parts of liturgies used in the modern church
    world stem
    from the big Old World religious institution. They do not line up with Acts
    2:38 or
    Deuteronomy 6:4. Moreover, alleged reformers like Luther, Calvin, and
    Zwingli based
    some of their teachings and practices upon early traditions of the big
    European religion.
    Historians and theologians have parroted those things and they fill religious
    history
    books. The great damage is, they only told their side of the story.
    Why is there not more Apostolic Christian history available? Most was
    deliberately
    destroyed. (A. S. Atya, p. 365). Biased and prejudiced historians have
    sometimes deleted and often have distorted and smeared history concerning the Apostolic,
    meaning
    Jerusalemic Judaic-Christianity. Some historians did not appreciate Acts two
    Pentecostalism.
    This is precisely why Oneness Apostolic history is harder to find.
    Therefore, in order
    to find history concerning adherents of Acts 2:38 ecclesiology we had to
    research under
    such words or names as, “Modalistic Monarchianism, Patripassianism, or
    Sabellianism!” And, really, these Greek words and names stem from slander. Oneness
    Christians
    were often referred to by these names.
    Apostolic Pentecostal Christianity went through fires of persecution. Its
    adherents
    greatly suffered, as we shall see. Catholic leaders as well as European High
    Protestant
    ones martyred them by hundreds of thousands. In fact, we found Oneness
    history by
    researching ancient records which told of their martyrdom!
    Fortunately, even under the circumstances mentioned, we were able to
    construct the
    fascinating history of the Apostolic Christians. Hence this Apostolic History
    Outline
    is the end product of tremendous effort, and its succeeds in constituting an
    authentic
    story concerning Oneness Christian history.

    The Everlasting Phenomenom
    The Church of ST. Matthew 16:18
    The Christ of the New Testament stated, “Upon this rock I will build my
    church; and
    the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. (St. Mt. 16:18).
    Instantly two divine phenomenon are obvious. One, He declared that He
    would build
    His one and only church. Two, He affirmed that “the gates of hell would
    never prevail
    against it.” The Holy Writ must never be questioned, it is altogether
    accurate. God’s
    words here are unqestionable. The eternized words of Christ here, their
    purpose, the
    longevous promise in them, are irreversible, inerrant, and are prophetically
    accurate.
    Christ, the Lord God Almighty, the All-In-All manifested in the flesh, could
    not have
    been wrong in this statement in any sense. We mean that His church, true to
    His word,
    never for one moment perished. It never died. It was present in every
    decade.
    A handful of well-meaning persons have assumed that a century or so after
    the Day
    of Pentecost that the church died, or suffered an awful fate of being
    Romanized,
    Catholicized. Nothing like that happened. Thankfully, this negative type of
    theological
    thinking is disappearing from the scene. God’s church was too strong to
    perish, more
    enduring than that. It is now almost consentaneous, most now see the
    infallible promise of longevity and continuity in St. Mt. 16:18.
    The part, “the gates of hell shall not prevail,” contains eternized
    ingredients, and promises an everlasting quality, and indestructible structure. If Christ’s church
    had died,
    had succumbed to some evil, then Christ’s words would have contained a
    degree errancy. But in Christ there was no chance of error.
    “Upon this rock I will build My church,” He affirmed. With all of its
    legitimate quality the visible church could not fall to any foe.Why? It is strong, eternized,
    and holy.
    (Galatians 1:4). It was built strongly from its inception, and it made its
    pilgrimage
    through the world, through more than eighteen centuries and demonstrated
    its soulsaving power to everyone that would hear. It continually reached out its
    tenets to all. It
    maintained its diversity of membership; and it exists in a geographically
    universal manner. Its pure apostolic manner of teaching has always been maintained by
    some sincere
    clergyman somewhere. One man told another. Someone always believed the
    doctrinal
    ingredients contained in Acts two. “God never left Himself without a
    witness.” (Acts
    14:17). Scripturally honest men in all ages since Pentecost have engaged in
    apostolic
    preaching and practice and these men contributed to divine perpetuation of
    the Church
    depicted in Acts two.
    We assert in this Apostolic History Outline that holy men continued in the
    Apostle’s
    doctrine of Acts 2:38. (Acts 2:42). Men have hazarded their very lives for
    this treasured
    belief which the Apostles laid down. This type of love for biblical truth that
    Peter
    preached is the means by which the Church’s life was maintained. Further, it
    drew its
    life and ability to function from the Lord Jesus Christ and the power of his
    Holy Spirit.
    Thus in St. Mt. 16:18 Jesus assured Christians that His church would
    forever
    continue its identity and significance in every age and geographical area.
    “The gates of
    hell never prevailed against the church.”
    The Never Dying Church
    The Imperishable Doctrine of Acts 2:38
    CERTIFICATION
    This is an effort to gain complete reader confidence. It is necessary to
    know assuredly
    that the ancient religious bodies we refer to as monotheistic were, indeed,
    oneness.
    Here is how we prove they were. We know that historians classified certain
    religious
    bodies as having been Monarchian, Patripassian, or Sabellian. This means
    that they
    were recognized as having been adherents of Deuteronomy 6:4 — and thus
    they denied
    Rome’s Trinity. We know also that the Jesus Name water baptism was
    integral in these
    Bible believing bodies.
    MONTANISM, after Montanus, Montanists. These were tongues-speakers,
    had Spirit
    gifts and knew miracles. (Blunt, pp340,341). They were categorized as
    Sabellians —
    having no divisions in the Godhead. John Wesley considered Montanism to
    be true
    biblical Christianity. (Blunt, pp. 440,441; Knox pp. 39, 451).
    DONATIST, after Donatus, Donatism. they were tagged as having been of
    Sabellianism and Patrpassianism, holding a Judaistic Godhead concept along with the
    Acts
    2:38 Christ baptism. (See Blunt, p. 127, R. Bainton, p. 279; Knox, pp. 50,
    59).
    MANICHAEISM, after Mani, Manichee. They revered Pentecost, Jesus
    Name. (Blount
    p. 291). They were classified as having been Monarchians and of
    Sabellianism. (Blount
    pp. 412, 413). At first it had a doctrinal stigma, they corrected the matter.
    The Samosatenes, Artemonites, Donatists, Paterinui, Bogomils, and other Oneness
    bodies were associated doctrinally with Manichaeism. After ca. AD 1800 not all Manichee
    were Oneness.
    SAMOSATENE, after Paul of Samosata, Samosatenism. Quote: “Paul held
    the Oneness of God without distinction of persons.” (Blunt, pp. 515, 516). He was a
    JudaicChristian, holding Acts 2:38. (Blunt, p. 517).
    ARTEMONITE, after Artemon, Aretemonites. They were avid Modalistic
    Monarchians. (Blunt, p. 515). remarkably, this Jesus Name religion lived on through
    the known
    dates of AD 1590-1633! In Europe John Crellyet, preached this Acts two
    doctrine.
    (Blunt, p. 54).
    CELTIC CHRISTIANITY. Planted in Glastonbury, England, by AD 37-42,
    was
    Apostolic. (M. Deanseley, The PreConquest Church in England, pp. 4-15).
    Celts
    disseminated Acts 2:38 religion all over western Europe. (J. T. McNeill, The
    Celtic
    Church, pp. 10, 11, 156). They baptized into Christ. (E. T. Thompson, p.
    108).
    Bede called them one-God people. (Bede, English Hist.,p. 148). It was
    dominant
    in Western Europe until ca. 1200.
    Note: In relation, Catholic leaders referred to the above bodies as “heretics!”
    So did
    High Protestants. However, God raised them up so His (Acts two)
    Pentecostal doctrine could travel through them. Otherwise — Catholic leaders and those in
    High Protestantism would have destroyed Acts two tenets.
    TO FURTHER CLARIFY THINGS: By AD 200 St. Peter’s doctrine had to
    continue
    in Monarchism, Patripassianism, or Sabellianism. Why? By AD 200 Rome
    had invented its own European religion, and then slandered biblical Christianity of acts
    two as
    heresy.
    Later, ca. AD 500, these above Oneness bodies were collectively referred to
    by enemies as CATHARI, meaning — pure. (L. Verduin, pp. 95-130). Until AD
    1164-1176,
    most Cathari were truly monotheistic and held the Christ water baptism. Yet
    later, by
    ca AD 1150, the same monotheistic organizations were by historians, and
    Catholic
    leaders, collectively categorized as ALBIGENSIANS. (Blunt, pp15-17; M.
    Lambert,
    p. 62; J. B. Russell, pp. 5-23; Z. Oldenbourg, p. 41). In Languedoc they had
    schools,
    farms, houses, and controlled 1000 cities until AD 1233. Then came the
    Catholic Inquisition.
    NOTE: Both Catholics and High Protestants referred to the monotheists as
    heretics.
    Luther slandered them as Widertaufer, und Sacrament-schwarmer!
    Lutherans mass
    murdered them. (R. Bainton, p. 279). Nevertheless, Acts two ecclesiology
    traveled in
    them.
    In Martin Luther’s lifetime these same Oneness organizations were referred
    to as “Anabaptist.” It was after Peter Waldo’s time of AD 1164-1179, that there arose
    many
    Trinitarian Protestant bodies, and historians also referred to them as
    Anabaptist. In
    Luther’s time the Christ (Acts 2:38) water baptism continued in Oneness
    Apostolic
    Anabaptist organizations. In 1578 there was an INTERNATIONAL
    FEDERATION
    of APOSTOLIC CHURCHES. (G. H. Williams, The Radical Reformation, p.
    670).

    Glossary
    Here are some of the words or names used in this book. Sometimes their
    definitions
    or meanings are only found in history books. Many of these words are not in
    our
    dictionaries. We used the following definitions.
    APOSTOLIC: Apostle like, what the Apostles taught in Acts. The doctrine
    of the
    twelve.
    ALBIGENSIANS: Of Albi, France. They were mostly Apostolic Christians
    in organizations called by this name — especially between AD 900 and 1490.
    Some called
    them Cathari.
    ANABAPTIST: Anabaptism. this simply means to re-baptize someone.
    Apostolics
    would always re-baptize converts from out of Rome’s mode into the Acts
    2:38
    formula.
    ARIANISM: Arius, Arians of ca. AD 290-335. Arianism never died. Arius
    was excommunicated at Nicea for denying the Trinity idea.
    ATEMONITES: Followers of Artemon. He was a Monarchian with Acts
    two doctrine in Septimius Severus’ time.
    AUTO Da FE: It meant to Catholics — An Act of Faith! That is, they burned
    nonCatholics at the stake! It was a gala affair for Spanish Catholics — like a
    carnival!
    Especially Jews were burned. There were at least 2000 Autos in Spain alone.
    CATHARI: Or Catharer mean ‘pure’. By this historians slandered all
    nonCatholic
    (Christian) bodies. Most Catharer bodies were Oneness under different
    Names.
    CATHOLICISM: The whole Catholic system, the total concept. It falsely
    referred to itself as Christianity.
    CATHOLIC HIERARCHY: The top Romish leaders, the episcopi
    episcoporum.
    COERCIONISM: The use of verbal or military force.
    CONCORDAT: An agreement between a pope and a sovereign or
    government.
    However, we refer specifically to one drawn up on July 20, 1933, between
    Eugenio
    Pacelli (Pope Pius XII), and Nazi Germany’s Adolf Hitler. Its Article 16
    signed the
    Catholic system in Germany over to Hitler.
    CONDUCTUAL–AVERAGISM: It means the average morality of an
    average sinner on the street. Conduct of unregenerates; a low standard of holiness.
    CONFISCATION: I use this word herein to denote the scheme or practice of
    the
    Catholic System during its INQUISITIONS as it STOLE or SEIZED
    nonCatholic
    properties. Catholic Hitler stripped the Jews, is an example. Catholics
    stripped the
    Waldenses.
    CONSTANTINIANISM: This means the spirit of Constantine that seeped
    into
    Catholicism — cruelty, force by decree or military means. the evil practices
    in
    Rome’s religion.
    CONVENTICLE: A secret place of worship.
    DONATUS: Dionatism, after Donatus, one-God Christianity.
    ECCLESIOLOGY: Herein is used to mean doctrine, the study of Acts two
    doctrine, a study of Oneness Christian doctrinal structure.
    INQUISITION: Earth’s most horrifying thing. It was the Catholic scheme to
    inquire into a nonCatholic’s religion; a forced Roman Catholic Inquest,
    Tribunal
    Courts. the great INQUISITION was launched in 1233 by Pope Gregory IX
    and lasted until 1834. In it some historians estimate 68,000,000 perished,
    their
    properties confiscated by Romish Inquisitors like Torquemada. FerdinandIsabella and later Hitler, all operated about the same. In 1478 Sixtus IV ordered
    the
    Inquisition into Spain. In 1933 Pope Pius signed the CONCORDAT with
    Hitler’s
    Nazi Germany. Millions of Jews were killed.
    INQUISITOR: Usually a Dominican priest, a spy, he spied on those alleged
    to
    be heretics, Jews and Apostolics. He got 1/3 rd of the bounty. Torquemada
    was
    the most notorious.
    KERYGMA: Apostolic preaching of Acts two.
    MANI: (Manichaeus bar Babak) Manichaeism. Mani founded the Manichee
    bodies. He was a Persian of ca. AD 240. The Manichee held the Oneness
    Godhead
    and Acts two doctrine until 1800.
    MODALISTIC MONARCHIANISM: This means “one-God” doctrine. One
    “mode” of worshipping one “MONARCH-God.” It was the Deuternomy 6:4
    Godhead belief of Acts 2:38 Apostolic people. They were Jesus Name
    Christians.
    MONOTHEISM: Hebraic, one-God belief as in Deut. 6:4.
    NOETUS: The founder of Noetianism, of Noetians. He was a one-God
    bearer of
    Acts:238 ecclesiology, of AD 150? to 219.
    PATRIPASSIAN (ism): Pa-tri-passian means “the Father Himself suffered.”
    It denied Rome’s Trinity idea. It denotes Acts 2:38 doctrine in a “Jesus Only”
    sense. It
    was the same as Judaic-Christian monotheism. It went with Deut. 6:4.
    PEREGRINI: A Peregrin, peregrinus,was a land traveling as well as a sea
    roving
    missionary; early preachers. Often they preached where a ship docked, e.g.,
    Glastonbury, England, by AD 37-42.
    PRIMITIVE: The first and oldest, as applied to the Upper Room
    Christianity. It
    also means original. Thus Upper Room Christianity is primitive.
    PRISCILLIANISM: It was the same as Montanism, a tongues-speaking
    variant of
    Oneness Pentecostalism. Priscilla, a glossolalist, was in Montanus’ church,
    hence
    the name.
    SABELLIAN: Sabellius, of AD 257, propogated one-God-ism of Deut. 6:4
    which
    its enemies nicknamed, Sabellianism. Sabellianism was a one-God doctrine
    coupled with Acts 2:38 tenets. It bitterly denounced Rome’s Trinity theory. The
    nominal religious world despised (despises) the doctrine.
    SAMOSATENES: Paul of Samosata founded Samosatenism. They were
    also called
    Paulianists. They held Acts two tenets as well a Judaistic Godhead doctrine.
    Blunt,
    on p. 516, classed him as a Sabellian-Monarchian with Acts 2:38
    ecclesiology. His
    wife was a Jewess.
    THAUMATURGY: This means unnumbered divine miracles by the
    hundreds or
    thousands. See R. A. Knox, pp. 375, 376 about 600 miracles; outpouring of
    divine
    miracles.
    WIEDERTAUFER: It was medieval slander hurled at rebaptizers
    (Anabaptists). It
    was of German origin. To rebaptize Lutherans or Catholics often meant the
    death
    sentence.
    WINCKELEHE: What Catholics as well High Protestant Reformers
    slandered as
    illegal marriages; it insinuated that a man and his wife were illegally
    cohabitating if
    a Catholic or Lutheran priest did not conduct the wedding ceremony.
    WINCKLER: It means a hidden or out-of-the-way place; a conventicle, or
    secret
    place of worship.
    WINCKELPREDIGTEN: It means secret worship, winckel-preachings.
    WINCKLERISM: Catholic, Lutheran, and Zwinglian leaders slandered
    every religion outside their own as Wincklerism. This also included Oneness Apostolic
    Christianity.
    ZWANGTAUFE: It was specifically a cruel Roman Catholic invention.
    Zwangtaufe
    means, “water baptism by force into the Trinity formula.” Reformers
    supported
    Zwantaufe.
    INTRODUCTION
    Millions of studious Christians are currently showing great interest in
    religious history. It is a vital study. More specifically, in the end of the 20th century
    brilliant minds
    are in quest of facts concerning Apostolic Pentecostal history. This is as it
    should be.
    Many ask, “What went on during the centuries since Pentecost?”
    This question depicts a need for Apostolic history. This was one reason for
    “APOSTOLIC HISTORY OUTLINE.” People want to know what went on during
    the past
    eighteen centuries.
    Heavily documented, this reliable and understandable Outline depicts
    ancient and
    modern functions of the Jerusalemic (Acts two) Church. Christ’s Church of
    St. Mt.
    16:18 never died. It was always alive and never ceased to be doctrinally and
    spiritually intact for all people in all ages. Thus great numbers out of all time areas
    and
    walks of life could be “born-again” into it.
    We have not used suppositional material. We certify the facts — dates,
    figures, and
    quotes are accurate. Readers may check the references, a bibliography is in
    the back.
    Some references (and page numbers) point in a general way — offering
    related information — to the subject. But most references are specifically related to the
    subject.
    This book is a college level textbook. it is also completely original. It should
    be a standard tool in all church libraries.
    The world has been theologically deceived. What is a Catholic AUTO da
    FA? Have
    you read the CONCORDAT? May we urge you to do so. It was an
    international and
    binding agreement between Eugenio Pacelli (Pope Pius XII) and Nazi
    Germany’s Adolf
    Hitler concerning the Roman Catholic Church. (W. Langsam, Documents
    and Readings in the History of Europe Since 1918, pp. 722-728). There have been
    some very
    shocking things done under the name of Christianity. In our lifetime we have
    read about
    the horrifying USTASHI! There was the great “holocaust.” Many things of
    this nature
    are discussed in this history outline. Both Apostolic history as well as Jewish
    history
    are traced. You will see almost 2000 years of religious history in nutshell
    form. You
    will be fascinated, for this Outline is not one historian repeating or parroting
    another.
    Read about the Catholic sponsored Spanish Inquisition which to some, until
    recently,
    was an antiquarian diversion. However, some 20th century religious things
    bring a horrifying reality to our time. Monotheistic Christians are often slandered.
    Isreal, of oneGod-ism, is often disparaged by some members in the United Nations
    Organization.
    Many similar things are converted into a dreadful warning to us.
    The quotes used in this Outline are from the most credible historians —
    Heick, Harnack, Hogben, Knox, Hayes, Schaff, Langer, Verduin, Bernstein, Green,
    Blunt, and
    many others.
    Another big objective of this work is to prove that the doctrine of the
    Upper Room
    Church was not only known about, but was unwanted, by those alleged to be
    religious
    Reformers of Europe. Most don’t know that Apostolic preachers went to
    present this
    doctrine to Luther in 1525. Zwingli went to conventicular Pentecostal prayer
    meetings.
    There was an INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION of APOSTOLIC
    CHURCHES in
    Moravia in 1565! Oneness Pentecostalism was all around the Reformers. It
    never had
    to be “restored” or “reformed!” Europeans at St. Gall, Zollikon, Cologne,
    Malabar, and
    many other places, knew the “born-again” experience.
    Further, it can now be stated that the Topeka and Azusa Holy Ghost
    outpourings
    were not total innovations; instead, that there had been hundreds of others in
    every century since since Pentecost similar to them.
    We trust this Outline will be informative. It traces the Upper Room Church
    through
    every century into the twentieth. Hopefully this book will appear to be
    fashioned like a
    chain, a sequential model of the way Apostolic history came through the
    ages.

    Mt. 16:18 was fulfilled. 120 Jews were saved the first day. 3,000 more were
    added.
    Then 5,000 more entered (Acts 2:4, 4:4). Some Gentile proselytes were
    converted to
    Apostolic doctrine. Acts 2:38 descended along with the Holy Ghost.
    VISITORS to Jerusalem carried the Upper Room Doctrine back to their
    home lands.
    (Augustus Neander, pp. 46-49).
    AD 33-40. Regions around Jerusalem evangelized. Judaeans saved. (Acts
    15:1) Later,
    Judaeans were called Ebionites.
    AD 34, 35. Samaritans received the Holy Ghost.
    AD 34. Deacon Philip baptized the Ethiopian eunuch in the Name — Jesus
    Christ. (Acts
    8:27). Acts 2:38 doctrine was taken to Ethiopia. Ethiopian Apostolic
    Christianity
    founded. It was later called North African Christianity; it spread throughout
    the continent. (A. Neander, pp. 71, 79, 132, 424). It never perished.
    AD 35, 36. Cornelius’ household saved. (Acts 10:48).
    AD 37-42. A missionary took Acts 2:38 to Glastonbury, England. Then
    Celtic Apostolic Christianity started. (E. T. Thompson, p. 108).
    AD 45. APOSTLE PETER fled to Babylon (Asian by the Euphrates).
    Petrine doctrine
    spread into Asia, Far East. Peter never went to Rome. (Bainton, p. 76;
    Neander,
    pp. 124, 125). Peter was a Jewish escapee from a Roman prison, had he gone
    to Rome
    he would have been killed on the spot! Peter (or Mary) had nothing to do
    with
    Catholicism.
    AD 34-40. A missionary endeavor started. (Acts 13:2). Paul, Silas, Luke,
    and Barnabas
    called. The gospel spread.
    AD 46, 47. Cyprus Christianized with Acts two doctrine.
    ASIA MINOR EVANGELIZED
    AD 46-50. Paul, et. al., evangelized Asia Minor and lower Europe. One
    God-ism and
    Holy Ghost glossolalia injected (Acts 15:41). There was no Trinitarianism.
    AD 51. At ATHENS Paul preached on Mars Hill. (Acts 17:22). Dionysus
    and others
    saved.
    AD 50-60. Thaddeus indoctrinated Armenia (A. S. Atiya, p. xv,
    Introduction, p. 315).
    AD 51, 52. JEWS were driven out of Rome. (R. Bainton, p. 55). Peter could
    not have
    been there.
    AD 50-60. Apostle Thomas indoctrinated Malabar, India, with Acts 2:38
    doctrine. It
    was a Jewish settlement. (A. S. Atiya, pp. 53, 261; Neander, pp. 47, 48). It
    seems safe
    to say that Apostle Thomas’ Acts 2:38 doctrine reached China. (See (Atiya p.
    261;
    Langer, pp. 126, 537; Neander, pp. 46-49).
    AD 61-64. St. Paul was in Rome, but he preached to Jews in the ghetto.
    (Acts 28:17).
    There is no record that he reached Spain.
    AD 66-96. The APOSTLES passed, died.
    AD 66. Evil clerics started to arise. Hymenaeus, Alexander, Hermogenes,
    Demas,
    Philetus, leave the true faith. (I Tim. 1:20; II Tim. 1:15, 2:17). Apostate
    preachers crept
    in. They would not endure sound doctrine of Acts two. Some wanted a
    Grecized-Latinized religion instread of the Jerusalemic. They loved not the truth.
    AD 66. “ST. JUDE CRIED OUT!”
    AD 66-90. THEY WENT OUT FROM US, because they were not of us. (I
    John 2:19;
    Jude 1-3). Most were apostate Greeks who had been seethed in Platonism,
    polytheism,
    mythology and philosophy. Some could never understand monotheism as in
    Deut. 6:4.
    St Mat. 24:24 had foretold of these false clerics. I Tim. 4:1-3 was fulfilled.
    Of their
    type were the so-called POST-APOSTOLIC FATHERS. Such men —
    Clement of
    Rome, Ignatius, Justin, Shepherd Hermas, Polycarp — later founded the
    Catholic cult
    of Rome. By AD 150 it evolved into the counter system — the Church of
    Rome with
    vain bishops and priests; and by AD 340 it had popes. St. Jude saw the early
    ROOTS
    of CATHOLICISM!
    THE JERUSALEM CHURCH WAS NOT CATHOLIC. It never became
    Catholicized.
    (R. Sohm, A. Harnack, The Constitution and Law of the church in First Two
    Centuries, Putnam, NY, 1910, p.177).
    AD 100 to 200
    CATHOLIC CHURCH
    AD 100. Father, Son, Holy Ghost first used — a Catholic invention. (Heick,
    p. 87;
    Beasley-Murray, pp. 81-83).
    POST-APOSTOLIC FATHERS arose AD 90-140
    INCHOATE CATHOLIC PRIESTHOOD AROSE
    I Timothy 4:1-2 fulfilled. Pre-Catholic bishops arose: Clement of Rome —
    AD 30-100;
    Ignatius — 50-115; Shepherd Hermas — 90-132; Catholic Polycarp — 69-
    115; Catholic
    bishop Justin Martyr — 90-165. These Greek apostate Fathers issued
    spurious LETTERS. Early Catholics issued credentials, and rushed to preach where the
    Apostles
    had preached. Falsely they claimed, “APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION.”
    Clement said:
    “Almsgiving is better than prayer!” (Heick, p. 50).
    TRINITARIANISM invented, (L. Paine, pp. 86, 276).
    It was derived from Plato’s celestial arithmetic. (L. Hogben, p. 226; L. Paine,
    p. 276).
    Tertullian twisted Plato’s TIMAEUS into his : “TRINITAS.” Here started the
    Trinity!
    Early CATHOLICISM FOUNDED AD 90-140 (Langer, p. 141; Heick, p.
    46; Paine,
    pp. 24-29).
    Catholic bishops amplified Rome. This system had its church in Rome ca.
    140
    (Heick, p. 95).
    AD 140. Only a few Catholics at this date. (Knox, p. 58).
    AD 144. MARCION, a Patripassian, was fought by Rome. He baptized in
    Jesus
    Name. (A. Neander, pp. 197, 296). His NT did not have a St. Mt. 28:19
    Triune
    phrase in it!
    AD 150. Catholic Polycarp was at Rome, he and prepope Anicetus corrupted
    the
    EASTER date. (Heick, p. 98).
    CATHOLICISM WAS NOT CHRISTIANITY
    It was a system, a combination of Imperial Rome, Mithras and Orphic cults.
    (See
    L. Verduin, pp. 136, 137).
    CATHOLIC FATHERS INVENTED A TRIUNE GODHEAD
    AD 160-180. Catholic Bible canonized. (Scholars think the words Father,
    Son, and
    Holy Ghost, were made to suddenly appear. See Heick, p. 52; Bultmann, pp.
    133,
    134).
    CATHOLICISM STOLE THE WORD: CHRISTIANITY!
    AD 173. Catholic synod in Asia Minor called Apollinarius against
    Montanus, and
    tongues-speaking Montanism. (Blunt, p. 340). COERCION ATTEMPTED
    BY
    ROME!
    CONDUCTUAL-AVERAGISM in Catholicism. (H. C. Frend, p. 90; L.
    Verduin,
    p. 95).
    Oneness Ethiopians challenged Roman Church.
    Catholics persecuted Jews and Oneness Apostolics in Africa and Europe.
    AD 175. Early ideas about purgatory, catechism, and confirmation seeped
    into Catholicism — adopted from the Orphic cult. (Bernstein & Green, p.78).
    AD 193-211. Emperor SEPITIMUS SEVERUS forbade any to join Oneness
    Christianity or Judaism! (H. F. Frend, p. 91). Catholic EPISCOPATE formed at
    Rome.
    (Blunt, p. 128; R. Bainton, p. 76).

AD 100 to 200
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
THE CHURCH of ACTS TWO
Acts 2:38 water baptism continued. (A. Neander, p. 301).
Tongues-speaking continued. (W. Horton, pp. 71-75, 150 ).
ONENESS DOMINANT. There appeared Noetus and Praxeas. They
preached Apostolic Oneness. (Blunt, pp.440).
AD 96-100. Apostle John died. He carried on for Paul. Graeco-Roman world
evangelized with Acts 2:1-4, 38, doctrine. Armenia, Malabar, Saxony,
Glastonbury,

Ad 117. Pliny wrote about spread of One-God Christians.
NOETUS was the first Modalistic Monarchian; PATRIPASSIANISM
became

wide
spread. CELTIC peregrini (missionaries) spread Acts 2:38 over western
Europe.
(A. Neander, p. 49). Gospel in China. (Langer, p. 537). There were early
scroll
Bibles.
BIBLES were printed by Jews at Qumran. (C. F. Potter, p. 174). Apostolics
possessed Bibles. (Blunt, p. 127)
AD 160. TWO CHURCH SYSTEMS! There arose the false Church of
Rome.
There was also the continuing APOSTOLIC CHURCH of Acts two —
Jerusalem’s
religion. ( Blunt, pp. 440). They were not the same. there was verbal
warfare! Rudolf Sohm stated: “Primitive Christianity was never Catholic.” (Adolf
Harnack,
Constantine & Law of the Church, p. 177). Christianity never became
ROMANIZED.
Note: JUDAIC-CHRISTIANITY continued under the names —
MODALISTIC
MONARCHIANISM, PATRIPASSIANISM or SABELLIANISM. Oneness
Monarchianism was dominant in AD 230. (A. C. McGiffert, pp. 236, 239; Knox,
p. 58;
Blunt, pp. 340, 412). These held one-God Christian doctrine.
AD 157. MONTANISM amplified. (Blunt, pp. 338, 440). Montanists were
Oneness
Apostolic tongues-speakers.
MONTANUS was of Phrygia, where Paul had preached. Montanism was
classed as
SABELLIANISM. (Blunt, 340, 440). Montanism was alive in England as
late as 1727.
(Hamilton, p. 77). In AD 177 tongues-speaking Montanists were in Gaul.
Catholic
Irenaeus saw “nations” of Apostolic glossolalists in Europe in AD 177.
(Neander,
p. 49; H. C. Frend, p. 81). Gifts of the Spirit seen. Knox, p. 82, traces
Montanism
into the Medieval and related it to tongues-speaking Manichaeism.
ALOGI, they were antiLogos Christians — Oneness people in different
religious organizations.
AD 180. THE NORTH AFRICAN APOSTOLIC CHURCH fought the
Catholic
system. (A. Neander, p. 132; H.C. Frend, p. 91). July, AD 180, “ACTS of
SCILLITAN,” this was a Oneness document. In it the African Apostolic Church
rebuked
Catholic immorality. (Frend, p. 91).
AD 190. Artemon born, a Patripassian preacher. (Blunt, p. 127). There were
thousands of One-God preachers like him. Patrpassians used the Acts 2:38
baptismal
mode.
AD 200 to 300
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
(See: L. Boettner, Roman Catholicism).
AD 203. Emperor Septimius Severus fought one-God people in Africa.
(Frend
p. 91; A. Neander, p. 71).
AD 190-230. Few Catholics in Africa, outnumbered by Jesus Name
Monarchians. (Knox, p.58; A. C. McGiffert, p. 236).
TRINITY GODHEAD IDEA EVOLVES
AD 210-220. Tertullian twisted “Timaeus” into his famous “Trinitas!” (L.
Hogben, pp. 26, 27, 226).
AD 210. Catholic Eucharist – Communion, invented.

cuttings
and self-tortures. There was Do Penance! (O. W. Heick, p. 103).
AD 217. Callistus proclaimed himself: PONTIFF MAXIMUS. (O. W. Heick
p. 101).
Hebraic monotheism utterly ignored by Catholic system. (Levi Paine, pp. 28,
86, 276).
EVOLUTION OF TRINITARIANISM (Heick, pp. 117-127).
AD 220-240. Sapor II of Persia banned Catholicism. (Blunt, p. 287). Sapor
held monotheism and Acts two doctrine.
AD 230. STATION DAYS invented by Rome. Some vain martyrdoms,
Martyr’s relics were collected. Purgatorial and infant baptism ideas
exploited.
Confirmation established. (Heick, p.235).
AD 250. DO PENANCE enforced. (L. Boettner, p. 255). Biblical repentance
thrown out. (O. W. Heick, p. 103).

held
one-God-ism and Acts two doctrine. He was a Sabellian. (Blunt, p. 127).
AD 280. CONSTANTINE the EMPEROR
In AD 323 Constantine became full Emperor of Rome. He compared with
Ferdinad or Torquemada of Spain, and Hitler. He was PONTIFEX MAXIMUS,
to
the Church of Rome. (Wm Langer, pp. 117-120). His murderous spirit
infiltrated
Catholicism — CONSTANTINIANISM!
ARIUS and ARIANISM appeared
Arius denied the Trinity idea by ca. AD 300. (J. H. Blunt, p. 144; Bernstein
&
Green). Most Arians baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ. By AD 800
Arianism
in W. Europe was close to Jesus Name monotheism. (L. Duchesne, p. 293;
H. Daniel Ropps, p. 110; Z. Oldenbourg, p. 41).
Ca. AD 287-301. St Gregory (and Emperor Diocletian) forced 4,000,000
Armenians to become Catholic or suffer death! Gregory and Diocletian burned
Holy

SABELLIANISM denied the TRINITY THEORY
ACTS Two CHURCH was never Roman Catholic.
AD 220. Great Noetus, the Patripassian, died. There were by AD 200
hundreds of
thousands of such minded men. Noetians were nicknamed, Alogi. In such
bodies
there continued Holy Spirit tongues-speaking, gifts of the Spirit, etc. This
Apostolic doctrine was in Europe, Eurasia, Asia including China, and North
Africa.
(Heick, p. 150; M. T. Kelsey, pp. 40, 41). The Jersalemic religion was
dominant.
Tongues-speaking, gifts of the Spirit, were denied by the Catholic system.
(Thomas
O’ Dea, The Sociology of Religion, p. 40; M. T. Kelsey, Tongues Speaking,
pp. 40, 41).
AD 230. TERTULLIAN declared that tongues-speaking Monarchians
outnumbered
Catholics. (A. C. McGiffert, p. 239). Few Catholics in Africa in AD 370. (R.
A.
Knox, p. 58).
GREAT MANICHEAN BODIES (Blunt, p. 413).
AD 240. MANI, born in Persia, was a Judaic-Christian. He was both hated
and badly
smeared (defamed) by Catholics and their historians. He baptized in Jesus
Name,
knew glossolalia, and kept the Feast of Pentecost. It was Oneness
Pentecostalism,
but had a stigma. Later the stigma was removed. (Blunt, p. 289; J. Laux, p.
141).
SAMOSATENE CHRISTIANITY, Oneness. (See: A. Neander, pp. 373-
375).
AD 269. PAUL of SAMOSATA (in Asia Minor) was ex-Catholic. (Heick, p.
148).
An avid Patripassian, Catholics called him a Sabellian. (Blunt, p. 515: Paul
held the
Godhead without dinstinctions). Paul bitterly fought Rome. And
Samosatenism
never died. Samosatene Armenian Christianity was alive in 1551 (G. H.
Williams,
pp. 677 mentions it).
AD 274. MAMAS, was an Apostolic preacher of Cappadocia, and was
thrust
through by Catholics. He had a Bible. (Van Braght, Martyrs Mirrors, p.
142). By
AD 300 there were thousands of Cappadocians holding Acts 19:1-5 doctrine.
DONATUS, came on the theological scene.
DONATISM was of Sabellianism or Patripassianism. It never died. In AD
350
Donatus had 400 churches and as many ordained bishops that immersed in
the
Name — Jesus Christ. (Blunt, p. 127; L. Verduin, pp. 30, 258).
QUOTE: “In the forms of some of these different sects (Montanist, Donatist,
Sabellian, Arian, etc.,) the Monarchian controversy agitated the church of
Rome . . .
during the third century, and in the fourth, and called for the two great
Councils of
Nicea and Constantinople.” (J. H. Blunt, p. 332).

There was CHURCH and STATE apostsy reigned.
Plato’s celestial mathematics (Timaeus) was the basis for the European
Trinity.
(L. Hogben, pp. 26, 226). COERCIONISM and CONSTANTINIANISM
started
in force!
Note: Catholicism was not Christianity; Jerusalemic Christianity did not
become
Catholic! (R. Bainton, p. 100).
AD 325. the Roman Imperial, Mithra, and Orphic Cults amalgamated at
Nicaea and
formed Catholicism; then Catholic framers reached out and stole the name —
Christianity, and applied it to this Catholic system.
Catholic TRINITY GODHEAD idea finished. (Heick, p. 131). Then the
Greek-Latin
Trinity baptism: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, was forced upon nations.
(J. Laux, p. 123).
ZWANGTAUFE, baptism forced upon people.
Ad 335. ARIANISM defeated TRINITARIANISM at Council of Tyre. (R.
Bainton,
p. 101). More Arians than Catholics. There were untold numbers resisting
Nicaea’s
Trinity, called “AntiNicenes.” (L. Dichesne, pp. 292-295; G. H. Williams, p.
656).

This was forced on people by IMPERIAL EDICT! AD 382, Jerome
translated
the Catholic VULGATE Bible.
AD 300 to 400
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
Biblical Christianity continued in Monarchian, Patripassian, Sabellian, and
Montanist
bodies. These were about the same doctrinally. They held Acts two.

(A. S. Atiya, xv Introduction).
Most held Peter’s Acts 2:38 ecclesiology.
AD 304. Emperor Diocletian killed Jesus Name people — Alban, Aaron, and

practiced
glossolalia.
JERUSALEM’S TRUE CHURCH CONTINUED!
Doctrinally, nothing changed for the One-ness bodies. (See A. Neander, pp.
126, 127).
True Christianity did not become Catholic after the NICENE COUNCIL of
Ad 325.
There were dominant numbers of AntiNicenes. (L. Duchesne, pp. 292-296).
Nicene
dogmas meant nothing to Monarchian bodies. However, persecution was
more severely levied against them. Old Apostolic Churches continued. (Neander, p.
126). Petrine
doctrine was in Europe, Asia, and Africa.
AD 348. Donatists were martyred by Emperor Julian and militant Catholics.
(Blunt,
pp. 127-130). The Romish hierarchy slandered all others as, “Heretics!”
TRUE RELIGION WAS SLANDERED AND LIBELLED.
(Note: From here on histories become full of slanders and slurs aimed at
nonCatholics!)
AD 350. The name –CATHARI (pure) appeared.
There were countless Holy Ghost outpourings, profuse showers of
glossolalia, and
divine miracles known.
AD 361, Cappadocian Apostolic edifices (churches) confiscated by
Catholics of
Constantinople.
Our world has been duped into supposing Catholicism was dominant by AD
370.
There was but a handful of them in Africa. (R. A. Knox, p. 58; A.C.
McGiffert,
p. 236; L. Duchesne, p. 295). the few Catholics in Asia Minor did not have
church
building.
AD 390. Emperor Theodosius II killed 7000 Jesus Name Thessalonians.
(Wm.
Langer, p. 120).
NOTE: Oneness Christians have underestimated their historical importance.
Great men like Wolfein, sowed Acts 2:38 doctrine all through IndoEuropean
tribes. there was a “common cause” atmosphere between Arians and
Apostolics
throughout Europe. (H. C. Frend, p. 115; J. Laux, p. 116; Blunt, p. 129).
AD 400 to 500
CATHOLIC SYSTEM

(E. Fodor, Turkey 1970, p. 243).
AD 431. Cyril and militant Catholics rioted and persecuted Ephesian
Christians.
Cyril was jailed for that!
AD 440-461. LEO the GREAT was the first real pope.
AD 441. Saxons conquered Britain. AD 443, YEZDIGURD, a monotheist
ruled
W. Europe. AD 445-453, the HUNS ruled Europe, and many were Arians or
Apostolics. (R. Bainton, p. 130).
CATHOLICS BURN ALLEGED HERETICS!
(J. B. Russel, p. 22; R. Bainton, p. 279)
ROME — MARKED for DESTRUCTION! (Daniel 7:23).
AD 451. Council of Chalcedon.
AD 453. Pentecostal glossolalists martyred by Pope Leo I, some were
tongues
speaking Priscillianists. (Roth, p. 35).
There was a Church and State. Quote: “Devotions to the Holy Spirit has not
often
occupied a central position among Catholics . . . the emphasis upon internal
illumination which it involves is so dangerous to the Church.” (J. B. Russell,
p. 8).
Bainton stated that the Vandals were more holy than Catholics. (Bainton, p.
130).
AD 455. VANDALS LOOTED ROME. Apostolics had rest.
AD 476. ROMAN EMPIRE FELL!
Rome could no longer lord over other nations. Vain historians wept and
moaned
over the fall of Rome! It was mainly secular Roman corruption as well as
Catholic
apostasy that brought the so-called Dark Ages. Nevertheless, Pope Gelasius,
AD
496, proclaimed the popes to be ABOVE all laws, and not subject to any
authority! Was this outlawry? (L. Boettner, p. 235).
Dark Ages from AD 476 to 1000
AD 483. BAR SOMA embraced monotheistic Nestorianism in Armenia. For
centuries Nestorianism was a variant of Oneness, Acts 2:38. (A. S. Atiya, p.
275, 317,
321).
AD 400 to AD 500
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
Most of the nonCatholic bodies were collectively referred to as, CATHARI.
AD 400-497. Pentecostal Donatists were more numerous than Catholics.
(R. Bainton, p. 127).
Manichaeans became known as Bogomils. From AD 296 until 1100 they
were violently slaughtered by militant Catholics. (Langer, p. 340, 341; Laux, p. 141,
148).
At this time many Oneness Christians sought protection under the Goths and
the
Vandals. (Wm. Langer, p. 144; H. Trevor-Roper, p. 155).
AD 419-501. Tolouse was a GOTHIC state. It was protected as an Apostolic
stronghold. (Langer, p. 144).
SEVEN CHURCHES OF ASIA yet ALIVE! (Rev. 1:11)
Jesus said, “The gates of hell shall not prevail . . .”
ONE MAN TOLD ANOTHER about Acts 2:38.
AD 431. NESTORIANISM, a Oneness variant — swept from Petra to China.
(A. S. Atiya, pp. 258-264; Langer, 340, 537; Blunt, p. 368). Until ca. 1700
most
Nestorians were monotheists and used Acts 2:38 tenets. Most then knew
Spirit
glossolalia. Nestorius refused to call Mary, The Mother of God.
AD 440. Catholics were run out of Armenia. (Laux p. 155). One-God-ism
and
glossolalia immediately had a revival.
AD 440. Spirit tongues were in Persia. Celtic Pentecostalism was
widespread in
W. Europe — Frisia, Saxony, Languedoc. They baptized into Christ. (E. T.
Thompson, p. 108; Bede, p. 148). Oneness Pentecostalism traveled in most bodies
of
Montanists, Manichee, Nestorians, Samosatenes, Artemonites. These were
mostly
Patripassian. They, by 440, had Gothic Bibles. Tongues-speaking was in
much of
the Eastern Hemisphere. (M. T. Kelsey, p. 43; Tom Dowley, p. 115; Wade
Horton,
p. 150 as to tongues. NOTE: “God . . . He left not Himself without witness . .
.”
(Acts 14:17. Inevitably some persons held Peter’s doctrine. Oneness
Christianity
was a dominant force helping to shape history. (See: McGiffert, p. 229).
AD 476. The cruel Roman Empire had been divinely destroyed . Thus
Jersalemic
Christianity could more spread; and spread it did. There were montheistic
Ebionites
in Palestine with the Christ water baptism. (A. Neander, p. 234). Origen
hated them.
Acts 15:1-5 described them. They were of the Apostolic faith.
AD 497. NOTE: We see now that the Upper Room faith — meaning
primitive Judaic
Christianity of Acts two — consisted of a number of fraternally linked
communities
or pious organizations. (H. Joachim-Schoeps, The Religions of Mankinds,
pp. 275,
276). We refer to Monarchian, Patripassian, and Sabellian bodies. They
bitterly opposed emerging Catholicism. They held ‘olden Apostolic traditions’
(Neander,
p. 127) and used Christ Name exclusively. They held the church of Rome to
be the
antichurch (Neander, p. 125, 127). The nonCatholic bodies we mention held
doctrines of earlier Judaic-Christians. They especially adhered to Jesus Name
water baptism (Acts 2:38) and Mosaic Godhead doctrine of Deuteronomy 6:4. The
Catholic
system cast them out — out of what its vain hierarchy called the, “Cathedra
Petri!”
(A. Neander, pp. 124-127).
AD 500 to 600
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
EUROPEAN TRINITARIANISM fought MONOTHEISM
NOTE: Catholic invented Trinitarianism caused more mass deaths —
68,000,000 —
than any other thing. The magic in the numeral three (3) of the TRINITY —
has
created havoc, hysteria and divisions that led to millions of deaths. (L.
Hogben,
Mathematics For The Million, pp. 26, 226). Few people realize that
antiSemitism,
which led to the Inqusition in Spain, (with its Auto da Fes and quemaderos,)
bred
antiSemitics like Catholic Ferdinand and Isabella, Torquemada, (and Hitler,)
stemmed from Rome’s Trinitarianism! (See: Ed. A. Synan, The Popes and the
Jews in
the Middle Ages, Macmillan, NY, 1965, p. 1).
AD 506. Clovis, an Emperor.
Arian Goths and Visigoths fought Catholic armies and gave protection to
monotheistic Christians. (Langer, p. 144).
AD 508. Western Europe was not Catholicized. (Laux, pp. 189-207). There
was no
thought of papal power.
HARNACK wrote, “Catholicism is a Greek product in Christian dress . . . A
Greek
religion under the alien influence of Christianity.” (What Is Christianity, pp.
221).
AD 531. JUSTINIAN, was a Catholic Emperor. He compiled Roman Laws
into the,
NOVELLAE. (C. Roth, p. 35). Here were the basic laws the Vatican used for
the
INQUISITION!
AD 533. The NOVELLAE (Roman laws ) constituted the JUSTINIAN
CODE — a
right to kill law! (E. T. Thompson, pp. 38-40). Under it almost all
nonCatholics
could be slaughtered at will and their belongings confiscated! (Bernstein &
Green,
p. 112). It was earth’s most inhuman and inhumane law.
CATHOLIC INQUISITIONAL LAWS
ZWANGTAUFE and COERCIONISM reign!
Great numbers were forced into Catholicism. The Justinian Code meant
genocide
and confiscation of properties for Arians and otheres in nonCatholic
organizations.
(E. T. Thompson, p. 117; H. Trevor-Roper, p. 156). Under this law Jews
were
mass murdered. (Thompson, p. 117).
AD 563. COUNCIL of Braga was held. It condemned tongues-speaking
Priscillianists. (J. B. Russell p. 12).
AD 565. Justinian was captured and killed by those he had tried to destroy —
the Goths. (H. Trevor-Roper, p. 41).
AD 570. MOHAMMED was born. (Muslims in Spain were Moors).
Muslims,
(Moslems, Mohammedans) instantly killed Catholics on the spot — they
erroneously called them Christians. But Mohammedans seldom killed Jews or
other
one-God believers. The Mohammedan “COVENANT of UMAR,” gave
protections and rights to both Jews and one-God Apostolics. (Ed. A. Synan, p. 53).
Both pious Jews and Apostolics to Muslims were, People of the Book. There
was friendly trade between them. (Blunt, p. 15).
AD 597. AUGUSTINE — a monk — was sent to Britain along with 40 other
clerics by Pope Gregory I. Canterbury became a Catholic center. The British
Isles were full of Oneness (Celtic) Apostolics, and Catholic Augustine made
but little headway. (E. T. Thompson, pp. 106-108).
AD 500 to 600
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
CATHARI — were people of the True Christian Church in different
organizations.
They had Gothic Bibles. (See: C. F. Potter, p. 174).
UPPER ROOM doctrine shined throughout DARK AGES.
The individualistic makeup — yet doctrinal likeness — of the Cathari
organizations
we mention, together with courage of their refusal to conform to the norms
of corrupt Catholicism, led them in the biblical way to maintain Acts 2:38
ecclesiology.
Beyond the reach of Rome in outlying places such as Saxony, Frisia
(Netherlands),
Languedoc, etc., there were whole organizations of Acts two Christians.
(See J. H.
Blunt, p. 15; Z. Oldebourg, p. 258). J. B. Russell mentioned these Apostolic
on pp.
5-12. There were many One-God Preachers in AD 563. Contrary to biased
historians, it was through Montanism, Donatism, Samosatenism, and Celtic-Gothic
doctrine that Acts 2:1-4, 36, 38, traveled.
AD 502. WOLFEIN’s One-God preaching had paid off. (H. Daniel-Rops, p.
110).
Indo-European tribes held Pentecostalism as in Acts two. (Thompson, p.
108;
Neander, p. 49). H. Daniel-Rops, p. 110 affirmed that the majority of the
people in
W. European tribes had been baptized into the Name — Jesus Christ, before
settling
in the Roman Empire. (E. T. Thompson, p. 108; M. Lambert, p. 62;
Neander, p. 49).
AD 525. There was a controversy between Catholics and Apostolic Celts
over baptism. (N. C. Eberhardt, p. 351). Most W. Europeans refused Rome’s Triune
baptism.
AD 527. Many Burgundians were Apostolic Pentecostal. AD 536-563,
PRISCILLIANISM (glossolalic) was throughout the Old World. (Eberhardt, p. 238;
Knox,
pp. 30. 31).
AD 540-670. Bede, English History,p. 148, found one-God-people
throughout
England. there was no thought of papal authority in W. European lands.
(E. T. Thompson, p. 106).
AD 545-900. Ethiopian (N. African Christianity,) was all across Northern
Africa,
and was dominant. (R. A. Knox, p. 58, is indicative of this time).
Theodosius had persecuted nonCatholics; and Justinian had slain those
slandered as
heretics, now both were dead. Moslems and other invaders overwhelmed the
corrupt
Roman Empire. True Christians — slandered as heretics — welcomed these
conquerors and were protected by them. (H. Trevor-Roper, p. 41).
NOTE: Great numbers of those slurred as, “heretics,” were Jesus Name
Apostolics!
The Catholic hierarchy after AD 325 insinuated that the Acts two
ecclesiology was
heresy! (Who were those that the Catholics slandered as, ‘pagans’?”) They
also
suffered having their temples and churches confiscated.
AD 600. Pope Gregory I, tried to have all DONATISTS in Africa killed for
preaching
Acts two ecclesiology. (N. C. Eberhardt, p. 326; also A. Neander, pp. 125-
127).

AD 600 to 700
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
(See: C. Roth, The Spanish Inquisition, p. 60).
Pope Gregory I fixed the PURGATORIAL RITE. It is from the Orphic cult,
a rite
of purification — “Sacrum Purgatorium,” of the Lugentes Campe — which
means
“dismal regions”. (Dr. F. S. Reinhart, Facts for Roman Catholics, p. 19).
Gregory
ordered the mass murder of Donatists. (Laux, p. 195). He was the biggest
landowner
in Italy. (Langer, p. 152) He stole (confiscated) churches and building
materials from
others to build basilicas in Rome. Under him Arians and Apostolics were
slaughter
ed. (Robinson et. al., Earlier Ages, p. 339).
The Catholic leaders ignored the “Jerusalemic Church” yet existing, and its
continuing
apostolic traditions. (A. Neander, p. 172).
The propaganda about St. Peter’s bones in Rome started! (A. Neander, p.
124; see
p. 123: “Peter was never its pope.”
AD 607. Catholic Boniface I, could not convert the Indo-European tribes; he
was
ordered to leave. (E. T. Thompson, p. 108, 109; Wm. Langer, p. 150; J.
Laux,
p. 210). Later Pepin, and Charlemagne — Catholic rulers — fought these
Apostolics
of Europe and slew many; and forced others into Catholicism. (Langer, pp.
150-
155). NOTE: There were no Catholics in Frisia until 689. (Laux, p. 218).
THE GREAT EASTER FIGHT in England
AD 625-638. Pope Honorius I, was fanatically Church-State. He had Jews
killed in
Spain. Earlier, AD 610, many Arians in Spain were killed. (J. N. D. Kelley,
POPES,
p. 70).
MOSLEMS FOUGHT CATHOLICS
AD 622. ISLAMISM was strong. Muslims had the KORAN — their Holy
Book.
(Bernstein & Green, pp. 164, 165). Muslims in Spain were Moors; and they
protected Jews and one-God Christians from Catholic interests.
AD 663 The Catholic party had a basilica in Canterbury, but it was a
minority group.
It angered them to find that Rome’s fake (Greek-lunar) EASTER was
ignored. The
two religions fought it out in king Oswy’s Court! (E. T. Thompson, Through
The
Ages, p. 107; J. Laux, p. 196). Again it is obvious that almost all IndoEuropeans
were nonCatholic. (J. B. Russell, pp. 8, 172-181).
AD 670. King Oswy died. He had been Oneness Apostolic, but he had
wavered toards the Roman party.
AD 675. Boniface (Winifred) was born, a Catholic missionary to W. Europe,
who
used military force to make converts. (Wm. Langer, p. 150).
AD 680. The 6th General Council of Constantinople
AD 695. JEWS were KILLED IN SPAIN. (C. Roth, p. 35; J. B. Russell,
p.49)
Adult Jews were martyred in Spain by Catholic believers, and CHILDREN
OF JEWISH PARENTAGE were seized and reared as Catholics! (C. Roth, p. 127).
AD 600 to 700
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
Continuing Jerusalemic Christianity was found in several Modalistic
Monarchian organizations. These were generally referred to as: CATHARI.
AD 600. DESPOSYNI: The Desposyni — Acts 2:38 Jewish Bishops were
mostly
extinct. (M. Martin, Decline and Fall of the Roman Church, p. 42). Greatly
respected, they were descendants of Mary — the Mother of Jesus, Zacharias
and
Elisabeth, and had directed several Mideastern Judaic Christian areas. Most
had
been martyred by militant Catholics. Quote: ” . . . By the sword Roman
garrisons
hunted them as outlaws!” (M. Martin, p. 44).
AD 610. Arians and Oneness Apostolics were close, and had common social
cause.
Most Arians by now used the Christ water baptism. (H. Daniel-Rops, pp.
110, 112).
J. B. Russell, on p. 8, tells about the Apostolics of the time.
GOTHIC BIBLES were in widespread use.
In W. Eupopean lands the masses of Arians and Apostolics worshipped
together.
Quote: “Splendid voices of the Germanic choirs soared to the heavens!” (H.
Daniel-Rops. p. 111). Spirit filled glossolalists filled the lands.
AD 610. JESUS NAME WATER BAPTISM (Lambert, p. 62).
The Jesus Christ water baptism was almost the only one in Frisia until AD
689.
There were almost no Catholics. (J. Laux, p.218). Apostolic preaching had
been
maintained — holiness and tongues-speaking continued. there were gifts of
the
spirit. (J. B. Russell, p. 8, could imply this).
AD 600-800. Quote, “They baptized into Christ.” (E. T. Thompson, p. 108).
AD 663. “They were one-God people.” (Bede, English History, p. 148).
14th of NISAN kept! Real EASTER kept!
Note: For 626 years (since AD 37-42) Apostolic Celts in Britain had kept
the 14th
NISAN Passover. A Jesus Name Apostolic had planted Acts 2:38 at
Glastonbury by
37-42. In 663 it was the dominant religion by far. (E. T. Thompson,
Through The
Ages, pp. 106, 108; M. Deanseley, p. 14; Bede, p. 148; J. T. McNeill, pp. 10-
15,
156). Wolflein’s Gothic Bible was greatly used.
NOTE: The world has been duped into supposing Catholicism was the only
religion
there was. This happened because Oneness history was often destroyed, or
deleted
or distorted by prejudiced historians.
There was Pentecostal glossolalia throughout W. Europe and in the British
Isles
stemming from enduring Montanism. M. Lambert, on p. 62, referring to
tonguesspeakers as Priscillianists. They had the gifts of the Spirit, etc.
BY AD 663 — obviously there were two very different theological
institutions. One
was the undying Judaic-Christian Church of Jerusalem with acts two tenets,
The other — the Catholic system that merely claimed to be Christianity. By then the
Romish
belief was dogmatized into fixed forms of liturgy. We found evidence —
which we
have displayed — which proved that Judaic-Christian doctrine (Acts 2:1-4,
36, 38,)
continued in W. European Apostolic Organizations.
AD 700 to 800
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
AD 700-900. See J. B. Russell, pp. 172-175.
AD 704. Death of Columba, he was an Irish Catholic.
Greece and Rome “sank” as MODERN NATIONs arose. God raised up
Teutonic
Nations. Modern technologies, current laws, and good customs stem from
Teutonics.
AD 717. Moslem armies beseiged Constantinople. Moslek killed Catholic;
Catholic killed Moslem. Rome’s religion was mocked. Moslems called it “idol
worship,
“royalism;” and “political popes” was heard. (H. Trevor-Roper, p. 84; S. P.
Wachs, Judaism, p. 19).
AD 717-741. Emperor Leo III ruled. The Byzantine (Eastern Catholic)
Emperors
brought widespread terror. In Italy image worship was a fact. (Bernstein &
Green,
p. 149).
AD 717. Muslims (Moors) defeated the Spaniards. This accounts for
CatholicSpanish hate for Moors and Jews, especially noticed in the 13th-15th
centuries. In
1492 Spain regained power and then mass murdered Moors, Jews, and
Aposolics;
800,000 is one figure. (C. Roth, p. 1230.
AD 720. Catholics reached W. Germany. (J. Laux, p. 221).
AD 732. The Battle of Tours, won by Charles Martel, gave the Catholics a
temporary victory. (Bernstein & Green, p. 200).
AD 726. Byzantine Emperor Leo III forbade Image-worship. A big fight
started.
western Catholicism wanted images. (Icons were images). Iconoclasts broke
up
images. ICONOLATRY stayed, and in 787 the Nicean Council approved of
images, crosses, beads, relics. (Bernstein & Green, p. 156; O. W. Heick, p.
235).
AD 738. St Boniface had W. German Oneness people murdered. He also had
Apostolic Frisians killed at Zuider Zee! Acts 2:38 was their basic religion.
They
refused image worship. (See Neander, p. 49; H. Daniel-Rops, p. 110; and
Laux,
p. 220; Langer, p. 150.
AD 741. POPE ZACHARY was forced to admit that the JESUS CHRIST
baptism was VALID! (J. B. Russell, p. 172). By studying, Dissent and Reform
in
the Middle Ages, pp. 172-185, we find how the Upper Room faith permeated
W. Europe.
AD 747-768. Pepin the Short, father of Charlemagne, for the Vatican
marched
against W. European lands; in those lands were Apostolic organizations.
(Wm.
Langer, p. 150). Both Pepin and Charlemagne militarily forced people into
Ca-
tholicism. (Langer, pp. 150-153). The Apostolic’s refused Pepin’s demands.
AD 746-748. Great PLAGUES struck — cholera, diptheria (Black Death), in
them millions perished. (Encyclopedia Britannica, Vol. 17, Chicago, p.
1141).
AD 751. Popes traded lands for protection by kings. (Langer, pp. 150-152).
The Vatican owned much land.
AD 756. Pepin gave the Vatican the “PAPAL LANDS.” By AD 800,
CHARLEMAGNE entered ROME with his army, illegally took Pope Leo III out of
the
penitentiary, and at St. Peter’s was crowned “Emperor of the Holy Roman
Empire!” (Thompson, p. 123; r. Bainton, p. 154; Laux, p. 252).
AD 700 to 800
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
Celtic-Gothic (Acts two) Christianity permeated W. Europe.
Oneness Apostolic Christianity was throughout the Eastern Hemisphere,
from
Frisia to China, in massive organizations which had different names —
Montanist,
Donatist, Manichee, etc. There could have been 30 to 40 Oneness Apostolic
Organizations. (Blunt, p. 185; Knox, p. 72). Apostolic churches had continued.
As
to Godhead belief, they each held Monarchianism or Patripassianism —
which
were the same as Sabellianism. as noted, there were but few Catholics west
of
Lyons, France. (Russell, pp. 5-12, 23, 172-175; Z. Oldenbourg, p. 255;
Neander,
p. 49).
AD 712-744. Arian Lombards had an independent area in Italy. Rome’s
Vatican
was ignored. At the same time, “Aldebert preached Apostolic simplicity,”
stated
J. B. Russell, p. 10. (Langer, p. 150). NOTE: It is amazing to find so many
references concerning ancient Oneness Apostolic people and their preachers.
Oneness Apostolic Christianity was much more pervasive than we have been
told
about!
By AD 730 great numbers of Arians were also immersing into the Name —
JESUS
CHRIST. Pope Zachary was forced to acknowledge that the Christ baptism
was
dominant to both Alcuin and Charlemagne. (J. B. Russell, pp. 172-175).
Malcomb
Lambert wrote: “They accepted the baptism of adults, . . . baptism into
Christ.”
(Lambert, p. 62; H. Daniel-Rops, p. 110).
AD 731. Bede found tongues-speaking among Indo-European tribes. (Bede,
XII,
pp. 15, 16; English History, p. 148).
AD 730-790. By reading Russell, p. 172-175, it is refreshing to find the
account of
continuing Upper Room (Jerusalemic religion. The Catholic bishops referred
to it
as: “Idolatrous rites, heresy, and paganism!” Oneness preachers were
slandered
as “pseudoprophets!” Pope Zachary ordered Boniface to call a synod to rally
Rome’s party against holders of Jerusalem’s true religion! Catholic’s clerics
in AD
719-723 called biblical Acts two doctrine: ” a barbarously corrupted
Christianity!” (J. B. Russell, p. 175). Quote: ” The majority (of Indo-Europeans)
fascinated
by the spell of their ‘old superstition’ (meaning Acts 2:38 doctrine) baptized
into the
name of Christ.” (E. T. Thompson, p. 108).
AD 754. On June 5th, the foul mouthed Boniface was killed for his many
atrocities
against W. European people. (Wm. Langer, p. 150; J. Laux, p. 228).
In the 8th century — contrary to popular opinion — the Romish party was not
the
dominant one. It became dominant in Europe only after 1233 crusades aginst
the
Apostolic Albigensians. (Blunt, pp. 15-18; Z. Oldenbourg, p. 262).
AD 771. CHARLEMAGNE was the Emperor. (M. Martin, The Decline &
Fall
of the Roman Church, pp. 91-100, best describes Pope Leo and
Charlemagne.
It is not a pretty picture!). Charlemagne was illiterate, seven-foot, and bullet-
headed, to hear M. Martin tell it. At any rate, he compelled most to pay tithe
into the Vatican. He relentlessly warred against some Western European tribes
which held nonCatholic Christianity, and sent many to death. He compared
to
Ferdinand and Isabella, Torquemada, or to Hitler.
AD 800 to 900
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
See: J. Laux, Church History, pp. 239, 250.
AD 800. Vain kings like Pepin, Charles Martel, Charlemagne, etc., bowed to
popes. Rev. 17:10; Wm. Langer, pp. 150-155; and O. W. Heick, p. 280, describe the Vatican’s role with rulers.
PAPAL ROME WALLOWED IN APOSTASY. Every vice was in the
Vatican.
Huge land grants were handed to the popes. Billions of dollars in properties
were
confiscated.
CONFISCATION (H. C. Lea, pp. 333-337).
CHARLEMAGNE conquered and confiscated for the Vatican; he made
about
54 military campaigns against nonCatholic countries, 18 against Saxony
alone.
(Bernstein & Green, p. 200; E. T. Thompson, pp. 120-125).
CHARLEMAGNE: CHURCH and STATE!
Constantianism merged into COERCIONISM of cruel Charlemagne. He
militarily
forced people into Catholicism. (Langer, p. 153, 170; J. Laux, p. 253).
AD 802. Empress Irene deposed. In AD 814 Charlemagne died. Ca 815 AD,
a
St. Sophia Council was held. (Laux, p. 293). Great confusion in Catholic
ranks.
AD 842. St. Theodora imposed Catholicism in the East. (Laux, p. 293).
Eastern
Oneness resisted. Note: Generally in Europe and the Mideast nearly all
slandered
as heretic, except Jews, Muslims, and Arians, were Oneness Apostolic under
one
name or another. (Knox, p. 72, as an example).
“STREAMS OF HERETICS!” (Blunt, p. 16).
What Catholics called heretics often were Bible-believing, Sprit-filled,
fasting,
morally clean, good citizens, who only wanted to be left alone by Rome.
MOST NATIONS WERE NON-CATHOLIC
AD 858-867. POPE NICHOLAS admitted that JESUS NAME baptism was
the
valid one! (Encyclopedia Britanica, 11th ed., Vol. 3, pp. 365-366). By
Catholics
the Acts 2:38 water baptism was called, “the improper one,” and those who
adhered to it were “everywhere,” as J. B. Russell, pp. 172-177, affirmed. There
were
what the Romish party referred to as: “infestations of false Christians!”
(E. T. Thompson, P. 108; Russell, pp. 172-177; M. Lambert, p. 62).
AD 863. Most nations were militarily forced into Catholicism, forced by
IMPERIAL EDICT. SLAVICS forced into it. (Bernstein & Green, p. 123; Langer,
161-181; Laux, 275-288).
AD 867. One Pope anathematized another; there were popes and antipopes.
Western Catholics of Rome fought Byzantine Catholics. The Vatican in time
dominated.
AD 869. There was the 8th Ecumenical Council.
FEUDALISM STARTED
AD 852-889. How Europe became Catholic. Rulers used Catholic armies to
crush
Bulgaria; that religion was forced upon Czechs and Slavics, etc. Jews were
then
massacred also. (Bernstein & Green p, 150-1; Laux, pp. 275-288).
But when possible great numbers of Catholic people defected. (Russell, pp.
12,
172; L. Verduin, p. 173, as examples).
AD 888. PAPAL APOSTASY reigned. From AD 888 to 1314 the PAPACY
was a
plaything of powerful Italian families.
AD 800 to 900
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
The Catholic hierarchy slandered all others as, HERETICS! however, alleged
heretics
filled the lands. Who were they?
AD 800. Quote: DONATISM was never absent from the medieval scene. It
lasted
for twelve centuries and it maintained the primitive Apostolic
congregational
structurization.” (L. Verduin, p. 35).
(Catholicism was mostly confined to Italy, southern Greece, Corsica,
Sardinia, Sicily,
Bavaria, and Constantinople itself).
SAMOSATENISM was dominant in Asia Minor. (J. H. Blunt, p. 516, found
it to be
Monarchianism-Sabellianism). Samosatene Armenians were yet strong in

1551. (G. H.
      Williams, p. 676). Nestorianism was throughout the Mideast. (Blunt, p. 370;
      Atiya,
      pp. 261-264). Manichaeism was in most of these sprawling areas also; it,
      too, was an
      Apostolic-Pentecostal variant. (Blunt, p. 287). Celtic-Gothic Apostolics
      dominated W.
      Europe. Montanism could not be distinguished apart from these — its
      tongues-speakers
      were interwoven from Frisia to India. We are now convinced that these were
      the alleged heretics; also, we now claim most of them to have been monotheistic
      (Acts 2:38)
      variants. They permeated the whole Eastern Hemispere. there were 40 to 50
      organiza-
      tions of Apostolics in the 9th century.
      THE REAL CHURCH AT ITS PEAK!
      AD 830. BERNARD ROTHMANN of 1528 researched this 9th century
      religious
      scene. He found the Petrine — Acts two doctrine, to have been “the religion,”
      meaning
      the dominant one. (F. J. Wray, Reformation Studies, 1962, Va., p. 229). J. B.
      Russell,
      on pp. 172-180, described the same situation. Apostolic bodies or
      organizations challenged the Vatican-Italian religion and could not be suppressed. (J. Laux, p.
      351).
      The 9th century had more Apostolics than any other. Our references tend to
      prove
      this. (Z. Oldenbourg, p. 29, 41, 255; J. B. Russell, pp. 5-14, 172-178).
      AD 879. During the 9th century it is true that the Catholic system almost
      suffered collapse, and we mean totally. (See: J. B. Russell, pp. 172-178; Langer, p. 153,
      215). The
      various peoples (ethnic groups) that were militarily forced into Catholicism
      — many of
      them — revolted, defected. Alcuin asked Charlemagne: “What has this
      religion forced
      on people preserved?” Millions turned from Catholic to the ancient
      Jerusalemic belief.
      Pope John VIII, summoned bishop Methodius to Rome to examine him — he
      was suspected of turning to Apostolic belief. (J. B. Russell, p. 178). Apostolic
      preachers were
      everywhere. The world will not receive it, but there were more “false
      priests,” as they
      were called — who had not been ordained in the Catholic system — than
      there were
      Catholic ones. (Russell, p. 174).
      AD 882. On August 28, Pope John VIII had an Apostolic preacher —
      Maimberto, arrested for preaching against the Trinity. (Russell, p. 178; M. Lambert, p. 62).
      Most nonCatholic European organizations — except Arian, Jewish, or
      Moorish ones —
      were adherents of Acts two ecclesiology until ca. AD 1164 when Peter
      Waldo
      appeared.
      AD 900 to 1000
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      See John Laux, pp. 239, 265-270, 275-287.
      AD 900. “CENTURY OF POPES AND KINGS.” Rev. 17:2.
      By AD 900 the papacy had invented dogmas that made a heretic — so to
      speak —
      out of Peter!
      SIMONY erupted. Simony denotes offices bought or sold for money or
      favors.
      Some popes sold offices to the highest bidders. (Langer, pp. 215-217).
      Untold
      Vatican evils.
      POPES and bishops became feudal lords. The Marozia family ruled the
      Vatican
      and Rome. Theodora and other immoral women were in the Vatican; sex
      scandals
      erupted. Let all read: J. Laux, pp. 265-273; and Wm. Langer, 214-218.
      NOTE:
      Catholic encyclopedias relate these stories with all their filthy details —
      without a
      single blush! The Vatican was a quagmire of graft, simony and vice. (E. T.
      Thompson, p. 125; Phillip Schaff, History of the Christian Church, pp. 283).
      This
      immorality caused great defection.
      WHY HAD THIS HAPPENED?
      About AD 90 to 140 when Catholic Greek bishops ignored biblical, Acts
      2:38 ecclesiology (Neander, p. 127), and invented the Greek-Latin Trinity
      hypothesis along
      with its Triune infant baptism and then devised “do penance,” these
      inventions led
      to utter apostasy. The sin — CONDUCTUAL AVERAGISM was the result.
      The
      Catholic goal: All-in-a-given-locality will naturally lead to an immoral
      church
      condition.
      AD 920. The Vatican acquired additional lands, there were bequeathals to
      the Vatican. Bishops confiscated lands for the Vatican. (Robinson, Earlier Ages,p.
      444).
      AD 928. Cities and towns had new importance. Jewish intellects directed
      construction of many cities, especially those of Spain and Portugal. From AD 800
      through
      1100 many Jewish families settled in Spain and Portugal. They built
      universities,
      hospitals, highways, etc., only to have them stripped from them in 1492.
      Jews fared
      better under Muslim rule than under Catholic (S. T. Lachs & S. P. Wachs,
      Judaism,
      p. 19). Muslims accepted Jews and Oneness as, People of the Book. In AD
      962
      Muslims smashed Catholic idols.
      AD 963. Quote: “In 963 Otto I deposed John XII, and had the council to
      select his
      successor. For forty years thereafter the emperors determined the choice of
      popes
      . . . first a German, then a Frenchman.” (R. bainton, pp. 167).
      SIN of INVESTITURE
      When a bishop was chosen, the feudal lord went to the investiture ( a
      ceremony of
      giving) — investing him with titles, office and lands. Then the bishop
      became the
      “man” of the lord, and served him! Later the lord handed the bishop the legal
      rights
      to his lands. Thus the lands passed on to the Vatican. (Robinson, p. 446).
      AD 995-999. King Olaf I, martyred thousands and with military might
      imposed Catholicism. (Wm. Langer, p. 204; J. Laux, p. 279). About the same time
      Catholic religion
      was — by power of the sword — imposed in Iceland and Greenland.
      It is amazing to learn that much of the earth was subjected to Roman
      Catholicism by
      the bloody sword of military might!
      AD 900 to 1000
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      There were many Oneness Apostolics organizations throughout the Eastern
      Hemiisphere. We have named many of them. They were under different names, e.
      g.,
      Samosatene. Historians generally referred to these pious bodies with such a
      high
      standard of holiness as: CATHARI. Their great numerical status actually
      terrified
      the Catholic hierarchy. (See: J. Laux, pp. 350-351; R. Bainton, p. 279; and J.
      H.
      Blunt, pp. 15, 22, 382, 412, 440, 516). “They threatened to desolate Catholicism!”
      AD 909, June 26. Archbishop Herve of Reims, stated that it had been
      impossible
      for many years to convene a Catholic synod due to three reasons: one was
      because of the “infestations of false Christians.” (J. B. Russell, p. 180).He
      meant
      that Oneness Apostolic bodies permeated European nations. (J. Laux, p.
      351).
      Their great numbers hindered Rome.
      Slanted and biased historians like Blunt, Bainton, Thompson, Laux, Knox,
      etc.,
      each mercilessly slandered and libeled the above Christians with names like:
      heretics, insane and raving, Wiedertaufer, Sacrament-schwarmer, Winckler,
      etc.
      GLOSSOLALIA — tongues-speaking by some historians was often
      slandered,
      often referred to as MYSTICISM.
      AD 915. After researching histories by the above men — we can see that
      there was
      a big number of Oneness Apostolic organizations which preached all of Acts
      two
      — advocated glossolalia, and demanded clean and pure living. There were
      divine
      miracles and gifts of the Spirit. See: R. A. Knox, Enthusiasm, pp.72-91
      where he
      has a list of many of the bodies; Laux, p. 351. (J. B. Russell, pp. 5-8, 173;
      Philip
      Schaff, pp. 229-231; W. Horton, pp. 69-96 as to glossolalia).
      FURTHER, by reading J. H. Blunt, pp. 22, 190, 338, 440, one will find that
      most
      of the many organizations slandered as heretics were nearly all doctrinally
      the same
      — especially in relation to Acts two tenets. Monarchianism and
      Patripassianism
      which were almost identical with Sabellianism — ran as a common thread
      through
      most nonCatholic bodies until ca. AD 1164. (J. H. Blunt, pp. 189; Wm.
      DuBois,
      p. 58).
      Peter WALDO, AD 1164-1179, of Lyons, France, was the first Protestant to
      turn
      to Rome for his Trinity doctrine that I can find. (See Blunt, p. 617, in AD
      1179).
      Luther, Calvin, Zwingli, Wycliffe, Menno, etc., merely followed Waldo’s
      example.
      CHRIST BAPTISM WAS USED PROFUSELY
      AD 923. Eugenia was baptized in the Name — Jesus.
      AD 925. Pelagius was baptized in the Name — Jesus. (Martyrs Mirror, p.
      256).
      Note: J. Van Braght, in Martyrs Mirror, used some Apostolic records,
      especially
      pp. 275-297.
      AD 980. Sympronius was baptized in the Name — Jesus.
      AD 996. Abbo of Fleury begged the king: “Drive heresy out of your
      kingdom!”
      (Russell, p. 180).
      AD 1000. Historian Fulbertus Carnotanses, explained the dynamics of the
      JESUS
      CHRIST water baptism. (J. Van Braght, Martyrs Mirror, p. 254). Great
      numbers
      went to death for the name of Jesus Christ.
      AD 1000 to 1100
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      Study the VATICAN. The Catholic Leaders were in utter corruption. (See: J.
      Laux,
      pp. 264-272, 352; Wm. Langer, p. 215; E. T. Thompsom, pp. 122-134).
      The following books should be consulted: The Decline and Fall of the
      Roman
      Church, by Malachi Martin; The Vatican against Europe, by Edmond Paris;
      The
      Crucifixion of The Jews, by F. H. Littell.
      AD 1000. Erick forced Catholicism upon Greenland.
      AD 1015. Under Vladmir masses of Russians were militarily forced into
      Catholic
      belief. (Wm. Langer, p. 243).
      AD 1029. Catholicism was forced upon the Swedes.
      AD 1035. Danes were forced into Catholicism. (Laux, p. 278).
      AD 1035. Slavic Tribes were re-conquered by Catholic armies, then forced
      into
      Catholicism. (Laux, p. 275).
      NOTE: In AD 1078, the Catholic system under Inge, confiscated (stole) the
      beautiful Church at Upsala, Sweden. (J. Laux, p. 277). It may have been a former
      Oneness Christian Church. This is one example as to how the Catholic system
      often
      acquired its churches,
      VATICAN CRIMES UNTOLD
      There were Byzantine political and theological woes. (Langer, p. 248).
      Monophysites of Syria were butchered by Rome’s party, but many fled into Moslem
      territories for protection.
      AD 1044. Pope Gregory VI, bought his high office.
      NOTE: By reading Wm. Langer, pp. 239-256, one will see that millions
      were
      bloody swored forced into Rome’s religion.
      AD 1055. Catholic belief forced on ESKIMOS at Igoliko. (Laux, p. 279).
      But few
      even understood the belief.
      AD 1058. Poland became Catholic under Casimir I.
      AD 1066. “THE GREAT NORMAN CONQUEST”
      ca. AD 1071. JERUSALEM IN MOSLEM HANDS
      Moslems were more religious and tolerant than Catholics.
      AD 1072. The Vatican owned 1/4th of England.
      AD 1073. Pope GREGORY VII (Hildebrand,) decreed that the popes were
      above
      all powers and laws on earth. ” Kiss the pope’s feet,” was heard! (Robinson,
      pp.
      449; L. Boettner, pp. 235-248). In AD 1075 was Pope Gregory II and his
      idea of
      “Dictatus Papae!”
      AD 1075. German Catholic Bishops were terrified at the idea of “reforms.”
      Then
      came INDULGENCE! (Langer, p. 206). THE CATHOLIC SYSTEM was in
      utter
      APOSTASY, declining, and something had to be done about it! Then the
      CRUSADE IDEA entered Pope URBAN’s mind.
      AD 1095. FIRST CRUSADE (Berns. & Green, p. 225).
      AD 1099. Pope URBAN went against the Moslems. “Deus uult!” This
      means, God
      wills it. The Crusaders slaughtered Slavics and Jews on the way to
      Jerusalem. They
      took Jerusalem, mass murdered the Muslims, and butchered 80,000 to
      90,000 Jews.
      (Bernstein & Green, p. 225; E. T. Thompson, pp. 114, 115; Russell, p. 50;
      H. Trevor-Roper, p. 104).
      THE CRUSADERS looted, murdered, and plundered. They spread venereal
      diseases all over the Mideast. Then great PLAGUES broke out. In that
      holocaust
      millions died!
      AD 1000 to 1100
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      The name — Cathari, gradually faded. Then was heard the name —
      ALBIGENSES.
      Yet later, the name — Albigensian gradually gave way to Anabaptism. Until
      ca. AD
      1176 these were about the same doctrinally. After Ad 1176 there were
      Protestant
      Trinitarians also referred to as Anabaptist. (J. Laux, p. 350; J. H. Blunt, pp.
      14-18).
      ANSELM said that much 11th century water baptism was in the Name of
      JESUS
      CHRIST, (Martyrs Mirror, p. 259). Western Europe, Eurasia, Asia, and
      Africa,
      were permeated with the many similar Apostolics organizations we have
      mentioned.
      Pentecostal manifestations were integral. Archbishop Herve of Reims
      admitted the
      Catholic system could not have a synod because of the widespread
      Apostolics.
      (Russell, p. 180). Pope Gregory VII, in 1079, asked Anselm to pray that
      “heretics”
      might be eradicated, meaning mass murdered! (Russell, p. 181). The
      Martyrs Miror, p. 293-297, tells much about these Apostolics from an ancient Oneness
      record.
      (G. H. Willians, p. 677). References concerning Apostolics turn up
      repeatedly in
      the 11th and 12th centuries.
      There were APOSTOLIC STRONGHOLDS or dominated regions — some
      were
      Saxony, Frisia, Flanders, Lombardy and Languedoc. (J. H. Blunt, pp. 14-18;
      Laux,
      p. 351; R. A. Knox, pp. 95-115; Z. Oldenbourg, pp. 29, 41, 255).
      AD 1030. In most of eastern Europe Apostolics did not (or could not) own
      church
      buildings. (L. Verduin, pp. 100, 164, 167). Catholic cathedrals to Apostolics
      were
      “cumulus lapidum,” merely a stone pile! They knew mostly Wincklerism
      and
      Winckelpredigten, that is, worshipping and preaching in hidden places —
      conventicles. (L. Verduin, pp. 167-170).
      ZWANGTAUFE was FORCED baptism by Catholics.
      WINCKELEHE was a persection hurled at married couples who were NOT
      married by a priest. This slander meant, “illegal cohabitation.” (L. Verduin, p.
      161).
      AD 1035. Algerus and Bruno were 11th cen. Apostolics.
      AD 1040. MANICHAEANS, Manichaeism — had lost its ancient doctrinal
      stigma.
      It was a variant of Apostolic Pentecostalism, we believe. Its adherents were
      classified as Cathari. They were slandered as, “Bogomils.” Historians badly
      smeared,
      slandered, them. They did not do things historians accused them of. “Bog”
      was
      God, and “mil” was mercy. (Blunt, p. 74). Many were Spirited glossolalists
      with
      great piety. Most were honest citizens of great worth.
      AD 1050. More than 1000 towns of Languedoc were in control of
      Albigensians.
      (J. H. Blunt, pp. 15-19; J. Laux, p. 351). Most of these citizens were
      Oneness; their
      Acts two principles were dominant there until 1233. Most of these Cathari
      were
      Pentecostal tongues-speakers and later were the, or were associated with the,
      PROPHETS OF THE CEVENNES. NOTE: The Cevennes were on the east side
      of the
      Albi-Toulouse region. Philip Schaff wrote about the Spirit filled tongues-
      speakers
      of the Cevennes Mountains. Blunt noted that the country controlled by the
      pious
      Albigensians was also the country of the Camisards. (Blunt, p. 19).
      AD 1100 to 1200
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      AD 1100. QUOTE: “Multitudes rushed headlong out of the Catholic
      Church.”
      (J. Laux, p. 352).
      SIMONY was rife. (J. B. Russell, p. 41, 126-151).
      AD 1115. Countess Matilda gave the Vatican great tracts of land. (Langer, p.
      219).
      The vile CRUSADERS confiscated lands and possessions — including
      Jewish
      BANKS, and gave them to the Vatican. There was no such thingas a holy
      Catholic
      Crusade! The Crusades were a Vatican device.
      AD 1118 there were two popes at once — Gelasia I, and Gregory VII; and in
      1124
      were Honorious I, and Celestine I. Pope fought pope. (Wm. Langer, p. 215;
      See:
      D. A. Yallop, IN GOD’s NAME, Bantam, NY, 1984). Rome’s Catholic party
      tried
      to commit genocide against Byzantine Catholics!
      AD 1121. The COUNCIL of SOISSONS defended Rome’s Trinity theory
      from the
      Schoolmen’s attack. Sabellianism and Monarchianism are associated with
      many
      schoolmen. (Blunt, p. 36). Modalistic Monarchianism was as strong as ever.
      AD 1142. ARNOLD of BRESCIA actually subdued the Vatican for 20
      years! He
      fought its falsity and apostasy, and sought to impose Jersalemic or Apostolic
      simplicity. (Blunt, p. 52; Martrys Mirror, pp. 293-296).
      AD 1145. Pope Eugene II hung Arnold of Brescia, cremated him and threw
      his
      ashes in the Tiber. (Ibid.)
      AD 1146. ABELARD, PETER the MONK, and PETER BRUIS (Petrobrusians)
      defected Catholicism, declared it to be false. It can be believed that they
      were rebaptized into the Name — Jesus Christ.
      AD 1146. St. BERNARD of CLAIRVAUX, France, was a militant Catholic.
      (Laux,
      p. 322). He confiscated great Clairvaux Valley from the Apostolics and built
      his
      monastery. He executed Abelard there later, many think. (Mart. Mir., pp.
      293-296,
      taken from ancient Apostolic records). He slaughtered many Apostolics. He
      greatly
      urged the 2nd Crusade. “Kill, kill for Christ,” he screamed.
      AD 1147. In St. Bernard’s time, “33% of the Catholics went to protestant
      (Winckelpredigten) conventicles to worship.” (Verduin, p. 173). People shunned the
      dogmatic
      religion of Rome.
      TRINITARIANISM CALLED ILLEGAL. (Blunt, p. 36; R. Bainton, p. 237;
      G. H.
      Williams, p. 718). Men openly debated aginst Rome’s Trinity. NOTE: Here
      was another turning point in religious history!
      AD 1164. PETER WALDO Appeared! (Blunt, p. 617).
      PROTESTANT TRINITARIANISM CAME!
      Waldensianism held Rome’s Trinity. In 1179 Waldo’s bishops went to Rome
      for approval. (Blunt, p. 617). Waldo set the pattern for modern Trinitarian
      religions.
      AD 1170-80. TWO STREAMS of PROTESTANTISM emerged with
      Waldo! For
      the first time there was monotheistic Christianity; and, besides Catholic
      Trinitarianism — there appeared the world’s TRINITARIAN PROTESTANTISM!
      Luther,
      Zwingli, Menno, Hus, etc., followed.
      AD 1189. The THIRD CRUSADE.
      AD 1189 (1160-1223). The popes enacted “Decrees of Genocide,” against
      the Albigensians. (Blunt, pp. 15-18).
      AD 1100 to 1200
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      AD 1100. The CATHARI were almost consensually referred to as
      ALBIGENSIANS.
      (Blunt, pp. 15, 331, 412; Laux, p. 315; Z. Oldenbourg, p. 255).
      AD 1105. SCHOOLMEN — learned men, denied the TRINITY. Here
      continued the
      Great CONTROVERSY. Jewish montheism, Monarchianism,
      Patripassianism were
      greatly defended and adhered to by such men as Abelard, Peter Bruis,
      Roscellin,
      etc., and they debated against the Trinity idea. (J. H. Blunt, pp. 36, 375, 530;
      R. Bainton, 237).
      AD 1108. “MULTITUDES of FREETHINKERS”
      This means that many and great organizations — and most were Apostolics —
      covered
      the lands. Pentecostals (tongues-speakers) in Europe numbered about
      4,000,000.
      (For this see: Blunt, p. 15, 36; E. T. Thompson, p. 157; R. Bainton, p. 279; J.
      B. Russell, pp. 54-80). How Blunt and Russell smeared, slandered those people!
      Here originated more Apostolic bodies under such names as “Henricians,” and
      “Petrobrusians.
      ” Referring to them Russell, on p. 76, used the words: “apostolic holiness.”
      They
      preached “hell-fire” sermons. They used the Christ water baptism.
      Glossolalia was a
      common trait.
      To prove that Southern France, and the great area of Saxony of W. Germany
      were
      filled with Apostolic oriented peoples, please read: Russell, pp. 54-100; Z.
      Oldenbourg, pp. 29, 41, 255-265. The religious world — its Trinitarian religionists
      — may
      slander and smear Oneness ecclesiology, but it was the common religion in
      W. Europe during the 12th century. (Catholicism had nearly gone under. Z.
      Oldenbourg,
      p. 255).
      MOST BODIES WERE ONENESS APOSTOLIC UNTIL PETER WALDO
      APPEARED
      Waldo, of Lyons, France, was the first or one of the first that we can find
      that turned to Rome for doctrinal approval. He created a hybrid protestant religion.
      (Blunt,
      p. 617).
      PROTESTANTISM MIXED with CATHOLICISM!
      AD 1161. Rev. GERARD and 30 other APOSTOLICS were murdered by
      Henry II,
      at Oxford. (Mart. Mir. p. 294).
      AD 1163, August 2nd, at Cologne, Germany, Catholic Ecbert, a monk of
      Schonaugh,
      in a typical Catholic Auto da Fe burned pastor Arnold, Marsilius, and
      Theodoric, Apostolic preachers, to death along with eight others. (Braght, Mart. Mir. p.
      296). One
      was a little girl. Ecbert mocked and laughed as they died in flames!
      THOUSANDS OF APOSTOLICS PUT TO DEATH in 1182. Philip — the
      Count of
      Flanders, and William the archbishop of Rheims, caused many to bear
      faggots, i.e.,
      to be burned. In 1184 or 1185 Pope Lucius issued a decree in Verona, in the
      presence Of Emperor Frederick that all those he thought to be heretics were to
      be mercilessly killed. (Braght, Mart. Mir. p. 297). 7000 people referred to as, pious
      witnesses
      of Jesus, were martyred in Bourges. So many Apostolics and Jews were put
      to death
      by so few Catholics! They were called, “true Christians,” and had nicknames
      such as
      Humilitani, Paterini, Patriciani, Arnoldists, etc., and were categorized as
      Sabellians.
      (J. H. Blunt, p. 412).
      AD 1200 to 1300
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      A century of CATHOLIC MASS MURDER. The INQUISITION was set in
      motion.
      It was an INSANITY, devised by insane minds at the Vatican.
      AD 1200. The Vatican owned about 1/5th of France.
      AD 1202-1204. The FOURTH CRUSADE. Rome’s CRUSADERS took
      Constantinople, and W. Catholics massacred Byzantine ones. (Berns. & Green, p. 226;
      R. Bainton, pp. 205, 210, 212; Lach & Wachs, p. 21).
      AD 1205. England was merely a papal fief. (Laux, p. 345).
      AD 1208-1215. A Spaniard, Pedro of Argon, was sent by the Vatican with
      500,000
      Crusaders to exterminate the Christian Albigensians. Inquisitor De Montfort,
      was a killer for the Vatican, but he was killed about 1215. (Laux, pp. 354-358).
      Thousands of
      Oneness Apostolics, and other citizens were martyred. Tolouse was
      devasted. Over
      500 towns in Languedoc were destroyed. (J. H. Blunt, pp. 16-18). 800
      nobles, honorable men and women,, many possessing the Holy Ghost and Acts 2:38
      belief, were
      hanged on trees and mutilated by Catholics. (Blunt, p. 18; Laux, p. 357).
      CATHOLICISM WAS NOT CHRISTIANITY
      AD 1215. JEWISH GHETTOS were invented by the Vatican. (Max Dimont,
      p. 224).
      Pope Innocent III, in 1215, drove the Jews into ghettos, deprived them of
      occupations,
      stole their banks, and made them wear badges. Hitler — also a Catholic — did
      the same
      thing. (F. H. Littell, p. 48).
      AD 1217. FIFTH CRUSADE (Bernstein & Green, p. 226).
      AD 1226. Catholic Knights forced their belief on more Slavics —
      Germanization was
      forced on them.
      THE GREAT INQUISITION, AD 1233.
      Inquisitores haereticae pravitatis. The Catholic INQUISITION, a system of
      Catholic
      Tribunal Courts — officially founded by Pope Gregory IX, in AD 1233. It
      lasted until
      July 15, 1834. It was a murder machine designed to exterminate
      nonCatholics. It used
      Roman Court Laws of the Theodosian-Justinian Codes. Under these (canon)
      laws of
      Ferdinand and Isabella massacred an estimated 6,000,000 Jews and other
      unwanted
      people. (C. Roth, pp. 57, 227; H. C. Lea, pp. 109-130; Berstein & Green, pp.
      256,
      302). C. S. Lovett, Voice In The Wilderness, p. 9, used the figure —
      68,000,000, persons who perished in the INQUISITION! Their properties were confiscated,
      and 30%
      of the stolen goods went to the Inquisitors, bounty-hunters! (C. Roth, p. 37;
      R. Bainton, p. 211; Bernstein & Green, p. 255). Most do not know that Adolf Hitler
      was a
      Catholic, and that 6,000,000 Jews also perished under him and that canon
      law was again used.
      AD 1248. SEVENTH CRUSADE
      AD 1252. A papal bull authorized every kind of torture for nonCatholics. (C.
      Roth,
      p. 37). Europe was turned into a torture chamber!
      AD 1270. EIGHTH CRUSADE
      AUTO DA FEs (Act of Faith!)
      (Cecil Roth, pp. 108-110; Lachs & Wachs, p. 20). Americans can hardly
      believe it!
      Catholics burned millions to death in a rite called, “Auto de Fe,” a carnival
      affair,
      called “Act of Faith!” Often thousands watched while Jews burned up!
      AD 1200 to 1300
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      The CATHOLIC SYSTEM attempted genocide against true Apostolic
      Christianity.
      AD 1214. On July 27, the frightful happened. France’s Catholic government
      gained
      control of Languedoc from the English! Then the N. French could — under
      Vatican
      orders — exterminate the mighty numbers of Apostolics, etc., that we have
      mention
      ed — great organizations of them! The papal INQUISITION was unleashed
      upon
      Apostolics, other religious bodies, and Jews all across Europe. (E. T.
      Thompson,
      pp. 157-160; Roth, p. 36; Bernstein & Green, pp. 255, 302).
      ALBIGENSIANS MASSACRED
      (See: Zoe Oldenbourg, The Massacre At Montsegur). NOTE: Who were
      these Albigensians that vain historians — parrotting Rome — have so slandered?
      These, mind
      you, were the same as good Americans! There were many big religious
      organizations
      of these Indo-Europeans with whole ecclesiastical systems, having schools
      and hospitals, in over 1000 cities. Most were pious Bible-readers. Great numbers
      had the
      Holy Ghost — knowing glossolalia and the Christ water baptism. They were
      good citizens of elevated culture — possessing dignity and godly pride. Morally they
      were far
      above Catholic conductual-averagism. (L. Verduin, pp. 106-115). They only
      wanted
      wanted civil and religious freedom. For this intolerant system martyred
      some of them.
      Most of them were of continuing Montanism, Donatism, Manichaeism,
      Samosatenism.
      Biased historians — not knowing who they were — slandered them as:
      Bogomils, Henricians, Petrobrusians, Arnoldists, Paterini, Humilitini, etc. (See: Knox, p.
      110;
      R. Bainton, p. 279; W. Horton, pp. 90, 91; Verduin, p. 195). Biased
      historians marred their image with propaganda and slander. When they were driven out.,
      then Catholic monasteries appeared. When they were driven out, then Catholic
      monasteries appeared. Many fled into Moravia. Great numbers of these peoples were
      Monarchianism
      or Patripassianism, meaning they continued in Praxeas, Sabellius, or Noetus’
      type of
      one-God-ism. (Z. Oldenbourg, p. 41, Christocentrism). We infer that most
      adhered to
      Acts 2:38 tenets.
      AD 1260. Knox, p. 86, found Apostolics widespread. The number — 80,000,
      is associated with Bohemia alone.
      POTENTIAL FIGURES
      How many organizations of Oneness Apostolics, etc., were there, not
      including Jewish or Muslim? Albigensian (Cathari) organizations were so big and
      widespread that
      the Vatican feared. (Bainton, p. 279). Knox on p. 71-72 listed 36 bodies, but
      there
      were many more. Gregoire enumerated 80 nonCatholic religions. (Knox, p.
      389). One
      historian figured there were 72, another 130. (E. T. Thompson, p. 157). We
      can show
      that they temporarily stopped Vatican activity! (Russell, p. 180; Blunt, p.
      53.). By AD
      1200 Albigensians, etc., numerically and doctrinally challenged Rome and
      had an
      estimated 4,000,000 Acts two believers. These European organizations
      almost put the
      Vatican out of business. (See: Z. Oldenbourg, p. 254; Thompson, p. 157;
      H. Kamen, p. 171).
      URSINUS of ETHIOPIA, AD 1284
      URSINUS, an Ethiopian scholar, declared that baptism into the Name —
      Jesus Christ,
      alone was valid. This indicates that Philip’s Jersualemic doctrine never
      perished from
      out of Africa. (In Gennod, de Ser. Eccl. XXVII; Hilary, de Synod, IXXXV);
      the Synod of Nemours, AD 1284). Later — slaves took Acts 2:38 into the West
      Indies.
      AD 1300 to 1400
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      The CATHOLIC HIERARCHY became even more corrupt. (R. Bainton, pp.
      215-
      235; L. Verduin, pp. 95-119; H. Trevor-Roper, p. 155; C. Roth, pp. 172,
      173).
      LAWLESS ROME — LAWLESS POPES
      AD 1303. Many historians describe the complete apostasy of the Vatican —
      its
      popes; but no pope brought more disgrace than Pope Boniface VIII. A bull is
      a papal pronouncement. In the bull, Unam sanctum (One holy) Boniface exalted
      himself
      and the papal office above all law or rulers. Actually he wanted “outlawry,”
      and for
      outlawry to be thought holy! (Wm. Langer, pp. 215, 286; Bernstein & Green,
      p. 238;
      Kuiper, p. 135).
      When MILITANT CATHOLICS gained control of S. France (Languedoc,
      1233) it
      was frightful. They had mass murdered pious Albigensians, Jews, and other
      good S.
      French citizens. Catholic Knights raped, ravaged, looted and plundered; and
      the
      French government had to stop them, to stop the evil papcy!
      BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY (1309-1378)
      The French government under Bertrand de Got, found the papcy so corrupt,
      deceitful and treacherous, that it ignored the bulls — Clericis laicos and Unam
      sanctum,
      and closed the Vatican by force. The papacy was forcibly moved from
      lawless
      Rome to Avignon, France. Actually the popes were locked up, in a palace
      penitentiary! (Bernstein & Green, p. 238; Wm. Langer, p. 286; Kuiper, p. 135).
      France’s minister Nogaret, threatened the evil Boniface with capital punishment.
      AD 1307-1309. Templar Knights were papal bankers. The Templer Order
      was abolished, the Hospitler took its place.
      AD 1328-(1330). John Wycliffe was born at Wycliffe-on-Tees. He was a
      professor
      in the University of Oxford. In 1381-1383 he worked intensely with aides to
      translate the English Bible. He preached against the countless atrocities of the
      Vatican.
      He stated that that the Bible alone, without tradition, was the sole rule of
      faith. In AD
      1415, the Council of Constance condemned Wycliffe. In 1428 Wycliffe’s
      bones
      were burned by papal command. (A. Curtis, Christ. Hist., 1985, p. 24).
      AD 1347-1353. BLACK DEATH swept Europe.
      Pandemic plagues of cholera and diptheria brought death to millions of
      Europeans.
      Some governments and populations failed. CRUSADERS had spread
      syphilis, gonorrhea, and other communicable diseases. (H. Styler, Plague Fighters, p.
      33).
      AD 1378. POPES RELEASED, RETUN TO ROME from Avignon.
      Catherine had
      used bribery to obtain their release. There was immediate antiSemitism.
      Also, AD
      1378 saw the great SCHISM. Papal scandals erupted.
      AD 1391. JEWS MASSACRED IN SPAIN-EUROPE
      AD 1391. On March 15, bishop Ferran Martinez started the anti-Jewish riot
      in Spain.
      It led to the great SPANISH INQUISITION. 50,000 Jews and Moors were
      burned in
      Auto da Fes, and 800,000 more victimized. (Cecil Roth, pp. 14-25).
      AD 1392. Moors were Muslims forced into Catholicism. Marranos, were
      Jews of
      Spain forced into that belief. The word — Marrano, in Spanish means,
      “swine!” Calling American police officers, “pigs,” came from this source.

AD 1300 to AD 1400
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
AD 1300-1350. The many Albigensian organizations were — by historians —
starting
to be referred to as Anabaptist. Before, or during the Tolosan Inquisition,
many thousands of Apostolics fled from Languedoc into Moravia of Czechoslavakia.
The Apostolic headquarters at Toulouse had been destroyed. Apostolic Oneness, as
well organizations of anti-Trinitarian, antipedobaptist people, became amplified in
Poland
and Lithuania, and rejected the Trinity. (G. H. Williams, p. 669). The OneGod people made some bishops admit that in the beginning there was only one God.
(Z. Oldenbourg, p. 263). By 1565, in Moravia, there were enough Apostolic
(Pentecostal)
Oneness to form an “International Federation of Apostolic Churches.”
(G. H. Williams, p. 670 about the Federation).
AD 1300-1414. Gothic Bibles had been used. English Bibles were used in
the early
15th century. Catholics burned all the Bibles they could. (L. Boettner, p. 89).
CATHOLICS HAD EARTH IN AN UPROAR
Dominican priests terrorized the lands! INQUISITIONAL procedure for
these bounty-hunting murderers was outlined in the “Practica inquisitionis Haereticae
Pravitatis!” (J. Laux, p. 368). NOTE: From AD 1233 when the INQUISITION
started until
July 15, 1834, when it ended — was the darkest, most lethal and dangerous
period of
earth history! An estimated 68,000,000 died. Masses of Pentecostal
Apostolics were
martyred. (See: J. B. Russell, pp. 195-230).
AD 1312. There were Wales Holiness Brethren. There were also those called
Celtic
Jumpers in England. (Blunt, p. 246). Celtic religion — stemming from
Glastonbury —
had never ceased. It (Acts two religion) had continued from Oswy’s time of
663.
(E. T. Thompson, p. 108).
AD 1315. The name or word, “Apostolics” is found to have been repeatedly
used by
Knox, on pp. 82-110, as he referred to many pious organizations in Europe.
Many,
most, were Holy Spirited tongues-speakers, and we mean to state that they
were from
Frisia to Eastern China. The Catholic-Toulouse Inquisition had only further
scattered
Pentecostal Apostolics all over the Eastern Hemispere. Knox, on p. 84,
mentions
400,000 Manichaeans in Bohemia (Czechoslavakia) as late as 1460. Knox,
on pp. 90,
91, figured that some organizations of Albigensians were from the
Paulicians (early
Armenian Samosatenes). Paul of Samosata was a Sabellian Oneness. (Blunt,
pp. 189,
190, 289, 412, 517, 606). Paul saw no divisions in the Godhead. Knox, pp.
90, 91,
found these monotheistic Apostolics all over Europe. (R. Bainton, p. 279;
Russell,
pp. 195-216). Historians underestimated Apostolic numerical strength.
AD 1368. All nonCatholic Christians had to worship in Winckler fashion,
i.e., in secret, Winckelpredigten fashion. Jews had to also worship in secret.
AD 1369. Urban V, released from his Avignon incarceration and returned to
the Vatican. Instantly there were atrocities.
In AD 1381, the European peasants revolted against Catholic maltreatment.
AD 1400 to AD 1500
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
The Roman Catholic Inquisition turned Europe into a holocaust.
JEWS, MOORS, and ANABAPTISTS BURNED!
AD 1415. Catholics burned John Huss. (Laux, p. 408). Burning people up
was big
stuff to Catholics; they either ruled or ruined.
AD 1420. TORQUEMADA (1420-1496) was born at Thomas, Spain. This
Catholic
killer of Jews, Moors, and Apostolics, was only out done by Ferdinand and
Isabella,
or Hitler. (C. Roth, pp. 37-52). 6,000,000 went to their death in Spain alone.
(Roth,
p. 227; Bernstein & Green, pp. 237, 302). Torquemada had 250 armed
guards, and
confiscated millions from Jews and Moors. (H. C. Lea, p. 333; C. Roth, p.
114, 231;
R. Bainton, p. 248).
AD 1425. Catholic AUTO da FEs were conducted against Hussites,
Waldensians
and Apostolics. (Laux, pp. 355-357). Cruel tortures were devised by
Catholics.
(Roth, p. 37).
CONFISCATIONS
Billions of dollars and millions of acres were seized from Jews, Moors, and
Anabaptists that Catholics annihilated. (H. C. Lea, p.333; C. Roth, pp. 51,53, 114-
119; H.
Trevor-Roper, pp. 129, 156).
SLAVERY by PAPAL PERMISSION
AD 1441. Papal permission for SLAVERY was given to Prince Henry the
navigator.
(Bernstein & Green, p. 302; Wm. Langer, pp. 486-504). Henry’s captains
began the
slave trade by taking African Blacks to Portugal. Columbus introduced
Black and
Indian SLAVERY into the Americas — not American Southerners. Blame
the Vatican
for slavery. (The Detroit News, Aug. 24, 1970, Sec. A.) Papal permission was
granted to Henry to “crusade, conquer, mass murder the HEATHEN!” The
heathen to
Henry were: Blacks, Malabarese, Chinese, W. Hemis. Indians, etc.!
(C. Hayes, p. 71-78).
AD 1450. Full papal supremacy over Europeans.
AD 1460. Catholic PODEBRAD persecuted Apostolics. 400,000 pious
Manichaeans
fled into Bosnia. (Knox p. 81).
AD 1469. FERDINAND and ISABELLA of Spain were married, earth’s
greatest husband and wife team of Jew killers. They were worth nearly a billion after
murdering
Jews and confiscating. (Lea, p. 333; C. Roth, pp. 71-90).
In 1492 this was how Isabella could finance Columbus!
Discoverer (conquistador) Columbus planted a flag for Spain; padres
planted the
Catholic Inquisition!
AD 1483. Martin Luther was born at Eisleben, Germany.
AD 1496-1500. MALABARESE, of Malabar, India, (Acts 2:38 Christians)
were
massacred by Catholic Inquisitor Alvares Cabral. (A. S. Atiya, p. 359).
AD 1499. WESTERN HEMISPHERE PLUNDERED
Columbus discovered America, true and good. But he also founded W.
slavery,
planted Catholicism and the Inquisition; the conquistadors plundered and
claimed the
Americas for Rome! (L. Verduin, p.266; H. Trevor-Roper, pp. 128-130; C.
Roth,
p. 209; Wm. Langer, pp. 486-502).
AD 1499. Catholics burned up Jews in Old Mexico. (1528;) and in Manila
and Lima,
Peru (1634)! (C. Roth, p. 209).
AD 1400 to 1500
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
NonCatholic Christianity was generally referred to as, “ANABAPTISM,” i.e.,
Anabaptist bodies.
AD 1400. Anabaptists were neither Catholic or protestant. (L. Verduin, pp.
95-113).
It was a pre-Reformation day. There were great numbers of Oneness
Apostolic clergymen preaching Acts 2:38 doctrine which was conducive to holy living.
They advocated the “born again” experience defined in Acts two. They DID NOT hold
the idea
of reforming a dead, apostate Catholic System! (Knox, p. 135; L. Verduin, p.
156).
They regarded the religion of Italy as the personality depicted in Rev. 17:5.
AD 1410. By studying Horst, Blunt, Knox, Thompson, Russell, Eberhardt,
etc., it is
easy to deduce that there were 30 to 40 pious Anabaptist organizations — of
both national and international status — and that most yet were of Apostolic
orientation. Later
both Catholics and High Protestants categorized them as, Anabaptist
(Wiedertaufer).
Anabaptist means to re-baptize; and Apostolic Pentecostals were famous for
that
pious act since antiquity!
AD 1420. Monarchianism yet swept the lands in spite of the Inquisition. It
was estimated that there were 4,000,000 Oneness. Blunt indicated concerning them,
“Streams of
Heretics.” (Blunt, p. 16). Bainton screamed, “They cover the land!”
(Bainton, p. 279).
Apostolics stated consensually, “The names of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
are improperly attributed to God,” i.e., did not indicate a Trinity. (Blunt, pp. 35-
37). By 1565,
the International Federation of Apostolic Churches — headquartered in
Moravia —
stated the eradication of the Trinity idea should consumate the attempted
Reformation!
(G. H. Williams, pp.670, 718). For monotheists it was an age-old argument.
between
1400 and 1573, there were 40 organizations counted. (Williams, p. 675).
Moravia had
become an Apostolic haven.
HISTORIANS SMEARED the ONENESS
Both historians and religionists SMEARED, name called, bad-mouthed, and
libeled
Apostolic Oneness Christians. Therefore, we cannot rely on histories — not
fully — as
pertaining to religious qualities of nonCatholics. Why? Good Bible-believers
were slurred by Luther and Zwingli, etc., as “HERETICS”, Wiedertaufer, Sacramentschwarmer, Rottengeister, Leufers, etc.” The slandered Christians believed in legal
and holy
marriage, they did eat some meats, and they were not “dualists” in the
Catholic sense!
American religious history books are full of slander!
AD 1487. The Catholic system crusaded against the pious Waldensians, and
confiscated their lands. (Blunt, p. 617).
AMERICA CLAIMED by VATICAN!
1494 AD. Pope Alexander VI, drew a line and separated Spanish and
Portuguese
claims. The haughty and spurious Treaty of Tordesillas, of pope Alexander
VI,
gave Spain North and South America and the Philippines, while Portugal
received —
at least theoretically — Africa, Asia, and an eastern part of Brazil

AD 1500 to 1600
CATHOLIC SYSTEM
There was WORLDWIDE CHANGE in religio-politico matters. (Langer,
pp. 486-
502). There was the Catholic conquest of the Western Hemisphere. (C.
Hayes, p. 78;
A. D. Frankforter, pp. 231-235; Laux, Appendix, p. 1). Catholicism was
forced upon
the W. Hemispheric peoples.
AD 1501. Catholics started SLAVERY in the Americas.
AD 1501. Vatican bulls that claimed the Americas were: Real patronato de
Indies, by
Pope Alexander VI; Inter Caetera 1493, partly meant power to conquer or
exterminate
natives. The Examiae devotions of 1501, was partly an INQUEST — power
to seek out
those slandered as heretics. The bull, Universalis Ecclesia of 1508, gave an
additional
power to extend Catholic religion universally! NOTE: “Heretics, Moors,
Jews, were
BARRED from So. America!” (Wm. Langer, p. 496; about Negro slavery in
So. America, see p. 496).
INQUISITION WAS IN THE AMERICAS!
CHURCH-STATE IN THE AMERICAS
Few American know the above phenomena. (See: C. Roth, p. 209; Langer,
pp.486-
502; R. Calder, pp. 139, 145).
AD 1511. Erasmus discussed glossolalia with Luther.
AD 1517. Luther fought Tetzel over INDULGENCE.
AD 1517. Luther posted his 95 Theses. (J. Laux, p. 421).
LUTHER’S ATTEMPTED REFORMATION
Luther’s so-called REFORMATION, was mostly a fiasco, an exaggerated
story by biased historians. He fought CHURCH-STATE of Rome only to create an
equally intolerant German Luthran CHURCH-STATE system! However, he did little
good.
AD 1521. Luther rejected BIBLICAL PENTECOSTALISM! (Knox,
Enthusiasm,
pp. 134, 135).
PEASANT WAR of 1525
Influential Luther was totally responsible for the Peasant uprising, his
inflamed pamphlets urged it. (C. Hayes, p. 143; Bainton, p. 269; C. Potter, p. 331). But
when the
Peasants threatened Luther’s rich estates, he screamed: “SMITE, SLAY,
STAB, the
Peasants!” (See: Hayes, p. 143; Bainton, p. 269; Potter, p. 331). He betrayed
the
Peasants, and led 50,000 to 100,000 to their death!
AD 1531. LUTHER AGREED TO THE DEATH PENALTY in order to
annhilate
Anabaptist bodies and Jews. (Bainton, p. 279; P. Lapide, Three Popes and
the Jews,
p. 25).
AD 1571. CATHOLIC INQUISITION IN PERU. There Jews were burned
to death.
(Langer, p. 496; H. Trevor-Roper, p. 129). 32,000 Spanish families (about
175,000
individuals) were in Mexico and So. America. They had ca. 40,000 slaves!
(C. Hayes, p. 77). Spanish language imposed by force.
AD 1571. Phillip II martyred about 3,000,000 nonCatholics in the
Netherlands.
(Thompson, p. 187). Apostolics fled to England, there tongues-speaking
erupted.
(Knox, p. 464).
AD 1572. Aug. 24th, on ST. BARTHOLOMEW’S DAY the Catholic system
slaughtered an estimated 30,000 pious Huguenots. (C. Hayes, p. 178). NOTE:
Catholic Armies drove pious Huguenots into the Cevennes Mts., right into the camps of
masses of
Oneness Apostolic glossolalists! Many Huguenots becames tonguesspeakers.
AD 1500 to 1600
APOSTOLIC CHURCH
It was a unique century of religious history. We think of Luther, Calvin, and
Zwingli
as classical Reformers and see them as having established the theological
trend for the
world’s modern Protestant Trinity religions.
AD 1517. On October 31, medieval ecclesiastical institutions suffered an
abrupt
change. Luther nailed his Theses on the Palace Church door. Another
massive revolt
against Rome’s manmade religion swept across Europe. Europe knew the
territorial
particularization that the so-called Reformation produced. Then cruel
Magisterial
Reformation was heard of. There was then ROMAN CATHOLIC
TRINITARIANISM as well as PROTESTANT TRINITARIANISM! One fought the other —
yet
both combined to attempt genocide against the nonconforming Anabaptist
organizations. (R. Bainton, p. 279). Europe then became a theological battleground!
AD 1518. CONVENTICULAR CHRISTIANITY was constituted by about
30 to 40
pious Anabaptist organizations. Between 1600 and 1727 there were about
eighty (80).
(Gregoire, Hist. des sectes religieuses, V. 326). These were the unwanted
Wiedertaufer. They were the persecuted Christians.
AD 1519. Cotez, and other Catholic conquistadores, committed genocide
against the
Aztec, Maya, and Toltec nations! Central America was laid waste by
Catholic agents.
(R. Calder, pp. 139, 154). Mexico was turned into desert — so many were
burned at
the stake! (Roth, p. 209).
AD 1520. African slaves imported tongues-speaking into the West Indies,
into the
Americas. (M. J. Herskovits, The Myth of the Negro Past, NY, Harper, 1941,
p. 231).
AD 1520-1532. GLOSSOLALIA OUTBREAK
Apostolic Pentecostalism with its integral tongues-speaking was all through
Luther and
Zwingli’s Europe. (W. Horton, pp. 97-138). Thomas Munzer, in 1521,
“feeling the direct indwelling of the Holy Spirit,” with other glossolalists went to confer
with Luther.
(C. Hayes, p. 161). Glossolalia broke out from Appenzell to Moravia in

1528. (L. Verduin, p. 166). Jesus Name water baptism was greatly utilized. (Verduin, p.
      181). At St.
      Gall glossolalia was widely known. In revivalistic piety there was fiery
      Pentecostal
      preaching. (See: G. H. Williams, pp. 133, 443). Notice how this author
      slandered and
      slurred those who engaged in Acts 2:1-4 activity as — deranged, arsonists,
      beserk
      breed of Munsterites, etc!). Near Erfurt there were massive outbreaks of
      Holy Ghost
      rhetoric along with healings and other divine manifestations. Many of them
      were beheaded. (Williams, p. 443; Wappler, Thuringen, pp. 81-85).
      ZWINGLI went to PENTECOSTAL REVIVALS. (R. A. Knox, p. 389). It
      was no different in Zwingli’s day than in 1985 as to the glossolalia phenomenon.
      Zwingli saw
      symptoms that he thought resembled epilepsy among the Holy Ghost
      tongues-speakers
      as they worshipped. (Knox, p. 389; L. Verduin, p. 166). He referred to them
      as “prophets of my time.” When one fell under the Spirit power, he thought he had
      a falling
      sickness.
      AD 1500 to 1600
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      Calvin and Luther discussed the glossolalia phenomenon, though neither
      experienced
      tongues-speaking. Both knew of tongues-speaking at Appenzell. (M. P.
      Hamilton,
      p. 73). Andreas Carlstadt and Luther, in 1525, disagreed on glossolalia;
      Carlstadt knew
      of the tongues-speakers all around him. (R. Bainton, p. 267).
      In the camps of the Socinians — of Rakow — there was Pentecostal preaching
      modeled
      after Acts two. Spirit tongues were common. (Hamilton, p. 74; G. H.
      Williams, pp. 662,
      703). Many Racovians were of the tongues movement, and many used the
      Christ water
      baptism. One named — Stancaro, was doctrinally a Sabellian. Sabellians
      utilized the
      Acts 2:38 formula.
      AD 1527. Haetzer baptized in the Name — Jesus Christ. He wrote “Jesus
      Only” songs.
      A part of one stanza is: “I am not three persons, but I am one!” (G. H.
      Williams,
      p. 193).
      WATER BAPTISM: in JESUS NAME
      M. Luther fully discussed the Acts 2:38 Jesus Name baptism held all around
      him by
      Apostolics. He rejected it. (See: Martin Luther, by J. Dillenberger, p. 297;
      Knox, pp.
      134, 135; L. Verduin, p. 184). Quote: ” . . . Baptism in the name of Jesus
      Christ is
      no new phenomenon . . . M. Luther encountered a dispute over the formula
      in his
      day.” (V. Synan, p. 158; G. T. Stokes, p. 140; L. Verduin, p. 38). Luther
      upheld, instead, a Triune infant baptism. (Verduin, pp. 107, 157). Those who differed
      with him,
      he slandered as Sacrament -schwarmer!
      Luther loved his beer. He stated, “While I slept and drank my beer with dear
      Melanchthon at Arnsdorf, I gave the papacy such a shock.” (See: R. A. Knox,
      p. 130).
      Luther — as it is today — knew all about Oneness Apostolic Pentecostalism
      and its
      Acts 2:38. He rejected it — though it was popular throughout the Old World.
      Let it be
      documented here — LUTHER never RESTORED or REFORMED Oneness
      (Biblical)
      Pentecostalism! He would have nothing to do with Acts 2:38 biblical
      ecclesiology. He
      never rose spiritually above “conductual-averagism.” (L. Verduin, p. 108).
      Luther admitted this. After this Luther went downhill.
      LUTHERAN-APOSTOLIC CONFERENCE
      AD 1521. Apostolic Organizations, as well as other Anabaptist bodies, were
      geographically widespread — in France, the Netherlands, England, Scotland,
      Lithuania, Poland,
      Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. (Bainton, pp. 279, 286).
      THOMAS MUNZER with a body of fellow fundamentalistic clergymen —
      among
      whom were Oneness Apostolics — in 1521, went to Wittenberg. It was a
      Conference.
      They presented biblical Pentecostalism to the Lutheran bishops. The
      Apostolics presented the doctrine of biblical monotheism and the Christ water baptism.
      (See: Hayes,
      p. 161; Knox, pp. 134, 135; Synan, p. 158; G. T. Stokes, p. 140). They
      affirmed that
      the Upper Room (Jerusalemic) Church had never died, but had been
      doctrinally maintained by men like themselves. These very words were used. Luther
      denounced them.
      (C. Hayes, p. 161). Munzer then evangelized in Bohemia and Switzerland.
      The Apostolics were “WEERLOOZE,” meaning defenseless, they would not
      kill
      humans.
      AD 1500 to 1600
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      AD 1531. ZWINGLI, political-militant Reformer, died in battle while trying
      to force
      his Presbyterianism on Swiss Catholics. (C. Hayes, p. 148). He also made
      five mili-
      tary moves against the Anabaptists, martyring numbers of them. (L.
      Verduin, pp.
      166, 202, 271; R. Bainton, p. 298).
      “The Catholics burned the Anabaptists, the (High) Protestants drowned
      them. At
      the Diet of Speyer, in 1529, Catholics and Lutherans subjected them to the
      death
      penalty. Luther . . . by 1531 . . . agreed to the death penalty.” (R. Bainton,
      pp.
      279, 298).
      AD 1533. There were big organizations of Anti-Nicenes and AntiTrinitarians. Some
      were classified as “Sabellians.” (G. H. Williams, p. 663). Racovians (Polish
      Brethren),
      used Christocentric language. They openly attacked and denied the Trinity.
      (Williams,
      pp. 717-719). In Turkish Hungary there were over 60 Unitarian Churches
      with schools.
      (Williams, p. 724). NOTE: Often Oneness Apostolics were thought to be
      Unitarians,
      By reading The Radical Reformation, pp. 553, 636, 655, 656, 707, 723, 753,
      760, one
      receives the impression that over half of the Anabaptist bodies used the
      Jesus Christ
      baptismal mode — Acts 2:38! Luther, Zwingli, and Calvin hated them for
      that. They put
      Anabaptists to death for rebaptizing persons out of the Trinity. (L. Verduin,
      pp. 185,
      202).
      FELIX MANTZ — a glossolalist and re-baptizer — on January 5, 1527, was
      drowned in
      the Limmat after being condemned by Zwingli, and officials at Zollikon. (L.
      Verduin,
      p. 217).
      AD 1533. Calvin burned the pious Bible translator — Rev. Michael Servetus
      — to death
      in Geneva, in 1533, for denying Rome’s Trinity theory. Servetus died in
      “Jesus Name;”
      and Calvin murdered him in the name — Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! (See:
      R. Bainton,
      p. 298; L. Verduin, p. 51). Calvin martyred many true Christians, and
      planned and maneuvered Servetus’ death. (Verduin, p. 51).
      ATROCITIES of MARTIN LUTHER
      Luther hurled, “Wiedertaufer, Sacrament-schwarmer, und andere
      Rottengeister,” at
      Anabaptists. He imposed the death penalty against them! He called
      Apostolic preachers, Winckelschleicher. He ordered: “Consign the scamp into the hands of
      the
      “Meister Hans;” which meant the hangman! (L. Verduin, pp. 185, 243).
      NOTE: Most
      have only heard one side — propaganda, concerning Luther. Many have been
      misled.
      AD 1553. On June 25, was the GERMAN LUTHERAN-ROMAN
      CATHOLIC “Auto
      da Fe” of MUNSTER, Germany. The Apostolic preacher — Bernard
      Rothman — had
      just re-baptized 1400 Munsterites into the Name — JESUS CHRIST. The
      saved among
      Munster citizens wanted religious and civil freedom, a Bibliocracy, for such
      several
      thousand Apostolic citizens were slaughtered by Luther’s men and Catholic
      militants.
      The Apostolics were “WEERLOZE,” unarmed and innocent. (Williams, p.
      369 about
      Rothman; L. Verduin, p. 238). Historians have distorted the truth about
      some pious
      Munsterites to cover Lutheran-Catholic guilt of genocide. Not all citizens of
      Munster
      were saved people. (L. Verduin, p. 238). Historians are unreliable
      concerning the Apostolics Christians of Munster.
      “Luther became a violent and brooding antiSemitic. He called for the
      deportation . . .
      of Jews,” stated Shirer. (Wm. L. Shirer, The Rise and Fall of the Third
      Reich, SimonSchuster, NY, 1960, p. 236).
      AD 1600 to 1700
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      The ROMAN CATHOLIC INQUISITION continued to turn the EasternWestern
      Hemisperes into a holocaust! The high Protestants of Europe conducted an
      Inquisition of their own. (See: R. Bainton, p. 298; J. Laux, Appendix; Langer, p.
      486; C.
      Roth, p. 209).
      A CENTURY of AUTO Da FEs (Roth, pp. 108-130).
      Sozzini founded anti-Trinitarianism. Many — but not all — immersed in
      Jesus Name,
      holding it to be the believer’s baptism. (G. H. Williams, pp. 655, 704, 718).
      Sozzini
      denied that Son and Holy Ghost were separate and apart from the Father.
      (Bernstein
      & Green, p. 291). Many Socinians used Romans 6:3, “Baptized into Christ.”
      Conventicular Christianity numerically multiplied, ” The town churches
      (Catholic,
      Lutheran, Zwinglian) were drained.” Woods, fields, and mountains were
      popular
      places of prayer and preaching. Pools and rivers were greatly used as
      baptismal sites.
      (Williams, pp. 128-130).
      AD 1607. Virginia was settled, it knew the first slaves.
      AD 1609-1611. The English Baptist Church was founded by Robert
      Browne. In
      1611 Thomas Helwys helped. (Hayes, p. 162).
      AD 1602-1625. THE KING JAMES BIBLE
      CA. 1611 the King James Bible was printed. There were 47 scholars
      appointed as
      translators. All were Trinitarians — most were Englishmen. They worked
      seven years
      on it.
      AD 1618-1648. THE THIRTY YEARS WAR, when Catholics and
      Protestants
      committed war against each other.
      AD 1624. QUAKERS owned SLAVES in America.
      AD 1626. ST. PETER’S of ROME
      St. Peter’s was dedicated. Its cost was estimated at $50,000,000. Some
      money
      came from indulgence — extrasacramental remission of punishment of sin.
      (Bernstein & Green, p. 273). Some was “blood money” from Jews, etc.,
      confiscations.
      (C. Roth, p. 114, 216). Confiscations netted the Vatican hundreds of
      millions.
      AD 1648. The Lutherans obtained 365 States in Europe.
      AD 1649. On April 11, 109 Jews were burned in an AUTO da Fe in Mexico
      City.
      Between 1480-1834, there were more than 2000 Auto da Fes. (Roth, pp.
      108-130:
      Bainton, p. 248).
      AD 1650-1670. QUIETISM OUTBREAK, in which 60,000 ex-Catholics
      experienced Pentecostal glossolalia. (Knox, p. 243). They shuddered and trembled
      as
      the Spirit moved them.
      AD 1668. New York City was founded.
      AD 1670. Anglicanism was forced upon people; there was mass murder.
      People
      fled to America. Many tongues-speakers immigrated. Tongues-speaking
      English
      Quakers were sold as slaves to rich Catholics in Barbados and Jamaica.
      (Blunt, p. 465. The Christ baptism was taken to the West Indies. William
      Penn
      denied there was a Trinity.
      AD 1670. For a century Catholic conquistadors, Castilians, Jesuits, etc., had
      subjugated nations from Old Mexico to Tierra del Fuego.
      (Langer, pp. 486-502; Roth, p. 209).
      AD 1671. Jesuits like Jacques Marquette forced or duped many Indians into
      Catholicism. (D. Frankforter, pp. 230-50).
      AD 1600 to 1700
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      Historians refer to it as a century of “pietism.” In “The Dippers Dip’t,” (an
      engraving)
      there is graphic proof of 15 major Anabaptist organizations. (H. Kamen, The
      Rise of
      Toleration, p. 171.) Apostolics are depicted. Four other bodies depicted we
      think
      were Oneness Apostolics also. (Number of organizations, see: G. H.
      Williams,
      p. 675).
      AD 1568-1605. There was enthusiasm and eschatological Biblicism and
      Apostolics
      maintained Jerusalemic (Acts 2:38) doctrine in an International Federation
      of Apostolic
      Churches. Sabellianism was throughout Europe. Many pious clergymen
      were prepared
      to lay aside doctrinal differences and become true Apostolic Moravian
      Oneness. (G. H.
      Williams, pp. 656, 697, 670).
      We prove that Armenian Apostolic Samosatenism was yet alive: In Larissa,
      Greece,
      from there Jesus Name brethren contacted Apostolics in Moravia. They yet
      possessed
      letters Apostle Paul had written to them in Macedonia. (Williams, p. 677; H.
      A. De Wind,
      Anabaptists in Thessalonica, MOR 29, 1955, p. 72). Tongues speaking
      Donatists were a
      continuing threat to Luther. (R. Bainton, p. 279). Among those called,
      “Enthusiasts,”
      were Apostolics also — and Knox, on p. 82, figured that they had inherited
      Pentecostal
      Montanism.
      1605-1696. TONGUES-SPEAKING Quietists were also throughout
      mainland Europe
      and in England. Knox associated their activity (glossolalia) with the Molinos
      — continuing Pentecostal Manichaeans. (R. A. Knox, pp. 262-267).
      AD 1624. Most Quakers and Shakers were Spirit filled tongues-speakers.
      Masses of
      them were in England. (E. D. Andrews, The People Called Shakers, pp. 9,
      12, 15).
      TONGUES in the WESTERN HEMISPHERE
      AD 1622. English citizens — meaning Holy Ghost filled, tongues-speaking
      Quakers —
      were deported from England, sold as slaves to rich Spanish Catholic families
      on plantations in Barbados and Jamaica. These pious glossolalists were sold under
      the “CONVENTICLE and FIVE MILE ACT.” (J. H. Blunt, p. 465, 466). Pentecostal
      glossolalia
      thus went to the West Indies and spread. (Some took the Acts 2:38 doctrine
      with them).
      AD 1633. African slaves carried glossolalia, one God-ism, and Acts 2:38
      ecclesiology
      to Haiti. Columbus had imported Blacks. In related history, Moravians
      imported Acts
      2:38 and glossolalia into Pennsylvania and Georgia. (Knox, pp. 404, 408,
      439).Unitarians imported tongues-speaking and the Christ water baptism into New
      England.
      (V. Synan, pp. 154-158). By 1662 glossolalia was almost universal!
      SPIRIT TONGUES of the CAMISARDS
      AD 1685-1909. There were countless Holy Ghost outpourings, and
      manifestations of
      gifts. Flaming tongues of the CAMISARDS were heard — PROPHETS of
      the CEVENNES. (P. Schaff, p. 237; V. Synan, p. 164; M. P. Hamilton, p. 89).
      NOTE: When
      Huguenots fled into the Cevennes earlier, Apostolic citizens indoctrinated
      many with
      Oneness Pentecostalism.
      AD 1685. Thronrakians (Armenians, of Lake Van, Turkey), knew tongues
      and the Acts
      2:38 baptism. (S. Runciman, The Manichee, under “Thronrakians,” by
      Conybeare).
      AD 1700 to 1800
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      The 18th century was one of holocaust dimension. It was one of CatholicLutheran
      wars. Catholic killed Lutheran, and Lutheran killed Catholic. Millions fled
      Europe.
      By 1700 there were perhaps 40,000 Black slaves, most in Catholic
      dominated So.
      America. (Wm. Langer, pp. 486-502; Hayes, p. 77; A. Frankforter, p. 231).
      AUTO Da FEs darkened the skies! The PAPAL INQUISITION was in full
      motion.
      These murder-fires were flaming in both Spain and Portugal; actually
      throughout Europe. Catholic anti-Semitism sent hundreds of thousands of Jews into the
      flames.
      Moors and other montheists perished by the thousands. (See: C. Roth, pp.
      208-225;
      John O’Brien, The Inquisition, pp. 10; J. Whalen, New Catholic Ency., Vol.
      7, pp.
      535-540; H. C. Lea, The Inq. of the Middle Ages, pp. 1-65).
      AD 1733. Georgia of the USA was founded.
      AD 1733. Thousands of Catholics defected and found Holy Ghost salvation
      in a belief slandered as, “Convulsionism.” There were tongues, many healings,
      numbers of
      divine miracles as ex-Catholics started praying to, “Deus de Abraham,” as
      many became Patripassians. In 1762, the French Parliament forbade miracles! There
      were unaccountable miracles. (R. A. Knox, pp. 373-388).
      AD 1735. Catholic doctors in France condemned Pentecostal emotionalism,
      healing
      miracles, and tongues-speaking. They considered people believing Acts two
      phenomena to be near lunacy. (Knox, pp. 380, 383). Unknown tongues are
      mentioned on p.
      380 by Knox. Holy hands wre laid on people: “Recevez le sceau du Saint
      Esprit.”
      While the inhuman and inhumane CATHOLIC INQUISITION annihilated
      millions
      all over the world (universally by 1571) other hundreds of thousands
      received the Holy Ghost and its glossolalia.
      AD 1700-1760. Count N. L. Von ZINZENDORF, became a preacher, and in
      1722
      founded a Trinity Anabaptist community called Herrnhut. Apostolics do not
      claim
      him. But on August 13, 1727, there was a glossolalic outpouring in their
      camp. (A.
      Curtis, Christian History, Vol. 1, 1, p. 24).
      AD 1762. MIRACLES at ST. MEDARD (Knox, p. 374).
      Innumerable divine miracles frightened the French government. Parliament
      forbade
      the use of the “Secours comme pouvant etre dangereux.” (Knox, pp. 381-
      388). The
      government ordered: “Do not commit Miracles here!” (S. C. McClain, p.
      48). “De
      par le roi, defense a Dieu. De faire miracle en ce lieu.”
      AD 1744. Rev. John Wesley lost 400 Methodists to Jesus Name Moravian
      churches
      in London. (R. A. Knox, p. 476). Note: many of the more pious Anabaptists
      who had
      fled to England, became tongues-speaking Apostolics under one name or
      another.
      AD 1776. July 4. DECLARATION of INDEPENDENCE
      AD 1788. July 2. US CONSTITUTION ratified.
      AD 1791. Rev. John Wesley died from consumption.
      AD 1790. There were ca. 3,500,000 in America.
      AD 1700 to 1800
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      The 18th century was also one in which Pentecostal tongues-speaking
      flowed in
      great currents.
      Ad 1700-1760. There were two distinct divisions of Moravian Anabaptism.
      There
      was the Trinitarian Herrnhut community under Count Zinzendorf, in
      Saxony. He
      tried to compromise — mold different beliefs and religionists into a “Unitas
      Fratrum.” (A. Curtis, Christ. Hist., Vol. 1, No. 1).
      In contradistinction, there were the Apostolic pastors in The International
      Federation of Apostolic Churches (of Acts 2:38 ecclesiology) in the Moravian
      wilderness.
      (G. H. Williams, pp. 670-679. The Oneness were persecuted. There were
      entire
      Oneness colonies. Big numbers of them lived in great prehistoric tunnels in
      Moravia. (Williams, p. 672). Howell Harris — a One-God preacher — was known
      in this
      division as was Peter Riedemann. These held a Christocentric doctrine, it
      was labelled — Patripassianism. (Knox, p. 408). Harris was concerned with Christ
      only doctrine: “We have to do with no one but the Son.”
      (Andrew Frey, London, 1753, p. 530).
      AD 1727. Moravian Spirit tongues and gifts were widely known.
      (R. A. Knox, pp. 380, 545).
      AD 1727. H. Ghost revival in Saxony. (M. Hamilton, p. 77).
1529. Pentecostal Montanism — its tongues-speaking broke out in England.
      “Great
      dealers in the Spirit!” (Hamilton, p. 77). Pentecostal Montanism had never
      ceased!
      AD 1727. No less than eighty (80) different fundamentalistic religious
      organizations
      were in Europe. (Knox, p. 389).
      1728-1731. 600 recorded MIRACLES!
      There was a 100 year prayer meeting. (A. K. Curtis, Christ. Hist. Vol. 2, No.
      1,
      p. 18).
      1656 through 1733 were 77 years of Holy Ghost outpouring and
      unnumbered divine
      miracles. “THAUMATURGY was witnessed!” There were 600 divine
      miracles recorded! (R. A. Knox, pp. 372-376). Unknown tongues were commonplace.
      (Knox, p. 380).
      AD 1734. Rev. John Wesley and Charles Wesley, went to the Moravian
      Christians for
      doctrine. Both turned to Moravianism. They witnessed Pentecostal
      glossolalia among
      Moravians in Georgia — (US), and in Europe! (R. A. Knox, pp. 466-469; A.
      K. Curtis,
      Christ. Hist., V. 1, 1, p. 28).
      AD 1750. Wesley saw Apostolic Pentecostalism all around him in England.
      (R. A.
      Knox, p. 451, 464). H. Harris and John Cennick preached the “New Birth”
      and were
      called “hot-gospellers!” (Knox, p. 483). Knox wrote on p. 464 about
      England being
      a “Pentecostal Babel!”
      AD 1750. Moravians owned a chapel in London!
      AD 1772. A Holy Ghost outpouring was in Sweden.
      AD 1774. On Aug. 6, ANN LEE imported tongues-speaking into the US.
      Tonguesspeaking spread. (E. D. Andrews, pp. 15-19). Wm. Penn brought tongues to
      America in 1677.
1530. Glossolalia swept New England. (M. Bach, Strange Sects and Curious
      Cults,
      p. 209).
      1779-1891. In Kara Kala (Turkish and Russian Armenians) by hundreds of
      thousands
      had the Holy Ghost, and settled in Los Angeles. (D. Shakarian, Happiest
      People on
      Earth, p. 15-21). Many of these had Acts 2:38 doctrine, and brought it to
      America
      long before the Azusa Revival.
      AD 1800 to 1900
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      Everyone should read the following books: The Vatican against Europe, by
      Edmond
      Paris; In God’s Name, by D.A. Yallop; Rich Church Poor Church, by
      Malachi Martin; and The Popes And The Jews in the Mid. Ages, by Ed. Synan.
      Contrary to age-old Catholic propaganda we have seen in preceding pages
      that Rome’s
      “ism” WAS NOT the only religion and WAS NOT the only Church! In fact,
      this book
      denies that Catholicism was ever Upper Room Christianity. Why? On what
      basis? Obviously Catholic ecclesiology does not indentify with Acts 2:1-4 and 2:38 or
      Deuteonomy 6:4.
      True or biblical religion stemmed from Jerusalemic-Hebraic source, not
      from Greek or
      Italian. (L. Verduin, pp. 133, 137). Christ had advocated love, not Auto da
      Fes.
      As noted, Catholic history is one of COERCIONISM, hate, INQUISITION
      — Auto da
      Fes, quemaderos, and CONFISCATIONS. For 1400 years that system
      burned Christians Bibles; it slandered and slurred all nonCatholics as “heretics!” For proof
      look into
      religious history books. It is time to stop such slander and libel!
1531. Immorality in Catholic art and Literature. (Roth, 195).
1532. NAPOLEON fought the VATICAN
      This French Emperor restricted papal rule, and seized papal lands. “Destroy
      Rome
      and the papacy,” he advocated. ( M. Martin, The Decline & Fall of the Rom.
      Church, p. 236).
      1780-1820. The Catholics in Spain AUTO Da Fe (burned) 5,000 Jews. (C.
      Roth,
      p. 256-260; W. Nigg, The Heretics, p. 216). See: Genocide in the Satellite
      Croatia,
      by E. Paris.
      1820-1931. There were civil wars in Spain. Spain’s unwanted people by
      thousands
      were murdered. (C. Roth, p. 262).
      CATHOLIC INQUSITION ENDED!
      Note: The papal INQUISITION only ended on July 15, 1834! America was
      about 250
      years old when it ended! It started in 1233. In 601 years it is estimated that
      about
      68,000,000 persons suffered death. (C. Roth, p. 267; Bernstein & Green, p.
      237 as to
      dates). The Vatican by it had acquired billions of dollars and millions of
      acres. Only in
      1860 was the “limpieza” ( a certificate of purity of blood, meaning no
      admixture of Jew
      or Moor blood) abolished in Spain! (L. Boettner, pp. 431-434).
      Legally, on paper at least, Catholic atrocities ended. But few know that
      Hitler was a
      Catholic, and that Auschwitz and Buchenwald, etc., were but a 20th century
      version of
      Auto da Fes! The frightful USTASHI members in Yugoslavia, in 1941-
      1944, were
      modern inquisitors. (Dr. L. M. Kostich, Holocaust, the entire book).
      BULL FIGHTS HAD ORIGIN! Few Americans know that cruel bull fights
      had origin
      mainly after Auto da Fes could not be openly used to entertain the public.
1533. On April 12, the Civil War and President Lincoln started to abolish
      human
      enslavement.
1534. The Civil War ended.
1535. There was the earth’s greatest snowstorm.
1536. There were 76,000,000 persons in America.
      AD 1800 to 1900
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      A person asked, “Why didn’t we hear more about Oneness Apostolics during
      the
      19th century?
      Firstly, they were around. However, the Catholic Inquisition had reduced
      their numbers greatly. Until Peter Waldo’s time (1164-1179) there had been mostly
      Oneness
      Apostolic organizations, or else the Catholic system to be in. Waldo and
      Luther set
      the trend to compromise — to digress to Rome’s Trinity Godhead theory and
      ignore
      Acts 2:38 doctrine. Then Protestant Trinitarian influence lured the greater
      numbers.
      Waldenses, Mennonites, Hutterites, Lollards, Amish, Methodists, Baptists,
      Prebyterians, Anglicans, etc., turned to Trinitarianism and ignored Oneness
      ecclesiology.
1537. Vermont had a Shaker tongues outpouring.
1538. Camisard tongues-speaking erupted in Europe. (Knox, p. 557).
      Glossolalia in
      many organizations made history in 1803-1830 in Britain. (Knox, pp. 550-
      560). Ann
      Lee denied there was a Trinity. There were 160,000 Quaker and Shaker
      glossolalists
      in America. (E. D. Andrews, pp. 9-21).
1539. The Oneness branch of Plymouth Brethren in England used
      exclusively the
      Acts 2:38 water baptism. (V. Synan, p. 158; G. T. Stokes, p. 140). So did
      most AntiNicene, Anti-Trinitarian, and Unitarian bodies. Knox on pp. 549-565 over
      and over
      mentioned the tongues movements in Europe.
      1830-1909. there were Apostolic colonies of Moravians. (G. H. Williams,
      670; R. A.
      Knox, p. 402 — as to 1909).
      1828-1831. NOTE: See R. A. Knox, p. 81, concerning glossolalists with
      Acts 2:38
      doctrine — Priscillianists, Donatists, Manichee, Montanists, Bogomils — all
      being in
      Russian Armenia (and Turkish) in 1828. (D. Shakarian pp. 14-24). Some
      took glossolalia and the Acts 2:38 doctrine to ghettos of Los Angeles long before
      Azusa.
1540. Edward Irving saw some of his followers, as well thousands of others,
      practicing Spirit glossolalia — Celts, Jumpers, Jerkers, Roarers, etc. (R. A. Knox,
      p. 551).
      Knox p. 464, called England a Pentecostal Babel.
1541. Spirit tongues were reported in India, China. (Eberhardt, p. 209; Knox,
      p. 557).
      Glossolalia knew no shortage.
1542. Lowell, Ohio, had a Oneness Acts 2:38 Church of Camisards. (Rev.
      Joe Nelson,
      Ph.D., W. Va., has the records).
1543. A Spirit outpouring was in Sweden. (Blunt, p. 246).
1544. Dan Huntington, Boston, Mass., baptized converts according to Acts
      2:38.
      (V. Synan, p. 163).
1545. An Acts 2:38 body of glossolalic LYNCHITES in-around Southport,
      NC. 1854.
      There was a 10 year long revival in Lebanon, NY, and thousands became
      Spirit filled
      glossolalists.
1546. There was an organization of Acts 2:38 clergymen in Canada & E.
      America:
      “They operated Apostolically.” (Hamilton, p. 89). A colony of Acts 2:38
      believers
      (Lees) on Billys Island, Florida.
1547. More than 160,000 tongues-speakers in America. (Blunt, 467).
      Quakers also had
      the Holy Ghost. Most denied the Trinity.
      1889-1904. Rev. Alvin E. Velie, of Florida, baptized thousands according to
      Acts 2:38
      in Wisconsin and Minnesota — 300 in a single revival. (Note: We have the
      book.)
1548. There was a massive H. Ghost outpouring in Oslo in 1899-1902.
      (Frank Ewart, p. 24).
      AD 1900
      CATHOLIC SYSTEM
      Most are aware of 20th century Catholic functions. Millions believe this
      system to be
      the apocalyptic personality depicted in Revelation 17:5. The Decline and
      Fall of the
      Roman Church, and The Final Conclave, by M. Martin; as well Roman
      Catholicism, by L. Boettner, depict modern Catholicism. Mostly — the system never
      really
      changed. It is as lethal as it was in Charlemagne’s lifetime; only International
      Laws restrict it.
1549. Pope Leo XIII, fought freedom of religion. (L. Boettner, p. 408). “The
      . . .
      Church can tolerate no strange churches besides herself.” (Cath. Ency., V.
      XIV,
      p. 766).
      “Individual liberty in reality is only deadly anarchy,” Pope Pius XII, April 6,
      1951).
      “We declare, say, define . . . that every being should be subject to the Roman
      Pontiff.”
      (Boniface VIII, Cath. Ency., V. XV, p. 126). “The pope is the supreme
      judge, even of
      civil laws, and is incapable of being under any true obligation to them.”
      (Civilita Cattolica). This is age old Constantinianism!”
1550. April 6, America was in WW I. 1921 saw WW I end.
1551. Henry Ford, the industrialist, published antiSemitic books. Hitler had
      his photograph. H. Ford was photographed as he was awarded the Grand Cross of the
      German
      Eagle from Hitler. (See: James Pool, Who Financed Hitler, Dial Pr., NY,
      1978, pp.
      85-130, 182; also The Detroit News).
1552. Mexico blasted open Catholic convents. (Laux, p. 591).
      1929-1937. the Great CRASH and DEPRESSION.
1553. The LATERAN TREATY made the Vatican and Italy into a single
      State. (Laux,
      p. 591). AntiSemitism erupted! Fascist Mussolini was the dictator who
      signed the Concordat with Pope Pius XI. the Vatican envisioned a restored Roman Empire.
      Ethiopia
      was destroyed. Church-State ended in Italy on March 22, 1985.
1554. On January 30, 1933, A. Hitler was made the German Chancellor. He
      was Roman Catholic — baptized at Linz. (Bullock, Hitler A Study in Tyranny, p. 26;
      Littell,
      The Crucifixion of the Jews, p. 48). Some top Nazi leaders were Catholic.
      He devised
      GENOCIDE against JEWS! A Reign of Terror erupted! (See: The Vatican
      Against
      Europe, E. Paris).
1555. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH had a CONCORDAT with NAZI
      GERMANY’S
      ADOLF HITLER! On July 20, 1933, Pope Pius XII (Eugenio Pacelli) signed
      the
      “CONCORDAT” with Hitler’s Von Papen. Article 16 almost completely put
      the
      Catholic system in the Greater Third Reich under Hitler’s command. (W.
      Langsam,
      Documents and Readings in the Hist. of Europe since 1918, pp. 722-728. Let
      all
      read this doc.). The Vatican was implicated with Germany. Jews were
      rounded up
      in St. Peter’s Square and shipped to Hitler’s crematoria of Auschwitz. (M.
      Martin,
      Three Popes and the Cardinal, pp. 18-24). Hitler was an Inquisitor for the
      system
      as had been Torquemada. Auschwitz and other Death Camps in Catholic
      Poland,
      were 20th century Auto de Fe sites! There was the “USTASHI” of
      Yugoslavia.
      (See: Dr. L. Kostich, Holocaust, concerning the USTASHI). Some officers
      or
      bishops — Pavelich, Stepinac, Trifa, Barbie, Rudolf, etc., have been named
      as war
      (WW II) criminals in relation to antiSemitism. An estimated 100,000 Serbs
      were
      forced into Catholicism. (L. Boettner, pp. 435-437).
1556. On September 8, the Israeli President and Cabinet accused the Vatican
      of being
      the Murder Cult Headquarters for Jew killers, and denounced its six (6) year
      “SILENCE” during the holocaust. (NBC, ABC, Tele., Detroit).
      AD 1900
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      BIBLICAL CHRISTIANITY — meaning The Jerusalemic (Apostolic)
      CHURCH depicted in Acts two — made its way from AD 33 through every AGE into the
      20th century doctrinally intact and fully operable! St. Matthew 16:18 is accurate:
      “The gates of
      hell had not prevailed against the Church.” St. Peter’s (basic) divine
      ecclesiology
      that constitutes Acts 2:38 was fully preached in every decade! “Christ has
      not left Himself without witness.” (Acts 14:17). Always some wise and Scripturally
      conscious persons utilized Acts 2:1-4, 2:38 and Deuteronomy 6:4. We have seen proofs of
      such phenomena in this book.
      NOTE: Oneness (Pentecostal) Christianity did not originate at Topeka or
      Azusa, nor
      was it revived or restored there! From 1556 through 1909 — thus
      independent of Topeka or Azusa — there had continued Oneness Apostolic colonies in
      Moravia. (R. A.
      Knox, pp. 81, 402; G. H. Williams, pp. 670-673). Organizations of
      Pentecostal Oneness Apostolics, under different names, were in Russian-Turkish Armenian
      regions until the sure dates of 1828, 1909. (See: Knox, p. 81, 402; D. Shakarian, pp.
      14-24).
      There were tens of thousands of Spirit filled glossolalists. (V. Synan, p.
      137). In the
      19th century many had settled in Los Angeles ghettos.
      1884-1904. The Rev. Alvin E. Velie, of Florida, used the Acts 2:38 Christ
      formula,
      and saw thousands receive glossolalia.
1557. There was the famed Topeka, Kansas, outpouring of the Holy Ghost.
      The
      glossolalia phenomenon became amplified. (F. J. Foster, Think it Not
      Strange, p. 25).
      It became widely known which was partially due to: spiritual hunger among
      masses, to
      modern news media, and the extensive use of the automobile. Charles F.
      Parham, the
      Topeka pastor, was not the formulator of any area of Pentecostalism.
1558. The Rev. Howard Goss was baptized in the Name — Jesus Christ, in
      1903.
      (V. Synan, p. 159).
      1906-1909. The AZUSA HOLY GHOST OUTPOURING gained worldwide
      attention!
      Tongues-speaking, technically known as glossolalia, was heard in heavenly
      gushes during the Azusa revival. (Rev. Frank J. Ewart, p. 42). At Azusa there was the
      tonguesspeaker — the glossolalist, also present was the unknown tongues interpreter
      — the
      glossologist. For three nights, through tongues, the Spirit said, “Arise and be
      baptized
      in the Name of Jesus Christ.” Leaders did not obey. At times an almost
      awesome quietness would seize the audience. (James Craigen, Kokomo, Indiana, 1941).
      The Rev. W.
      J. Seymour was the pastor at first. (F. Foster, p. 36). As F. J. Ewart put it,
      “The meeting lasted for over three years, going on night and day.” (Ewart, p. 40). It
      was another
      spectacular, another of the repetitious outpourings continuing from
      Pentecost.
      1904-1909. There was a mighty Holy Ghost outpouring among the Welsh.
      (M. P. Hamilton, p. 96).
      1907-1910. Some theologians and scholars wished to suppress the
      glossolalia phenomenon. However, by divine perogative the “tongues-movement” spread to
      Galena, Kansas, to Orchard, Texas, to Ohio in 1908, and to Rochester, New York, etc.
      AD 1900
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      1907-1908 SAMOSATENE ARMENIAN APOSTOLICS were strong in
      1828-1909,
      in Moravia and armenia, as noted. (See: R. A. Knox, pp. 81, 402: G. H.
      Williams,
      p. 677). From Armenia some immigrated and had settled in Los Angeles. (D.
      Shakarian, pp. 14-24). A Russian bearing Acts 2:38 desired to preach at Azusa, but
      was rejected by W. J. Seymour. Howard Goss and many others had been baptized
      into the
      Name — Jesus Christ by 1903. (V. Synan, p. 159). The Acts 2:38 water
      baptism was
      no innovation. (G. T. Stokes, p. 140). However, it was new to some
      Americans.
      CONTROVERSY OVER THE CHRIST BAPTISM
      1904-1912. Some Trinitarian theologians wished to suppress the biblical
      (Acts 2:38)
      baptismal formula. The Post-Apostolic Fathers, succession of popes, and
      High Reformers had also attempted similar suppression. They never succeeded. The
      controversy
      raged. Oneness clerics showed no interest in Rome’s Platonic Trinity, their
      orientation
      was Christocentric.To them Christ was YHWH — and biblical Oneness
      doctrine reached full-orbed expression in the Acts 2:38 formula and Deuteronomy 6:4.
1559. In April, there was “MOOD of EXPECTANTCY!” (V. Synan, p.
      145). R. E.
      McAlister was preaching and reconfirmed that, “original water baptism had
      always been
      in the Name — Jesus Christ.” (Foster, p. 51). Such men as J. G. Scheppe, Dr.
      Sykes
      G. A. Cook, F. Stewart, etc., heard this doctrine reiterated. They and many
      others accepted it as biblical revelation. They saw it plainly stated in the Bible.
1560. April 15th, EWART PREACHED ACTS 2:38!
      Rev. F. J. Ewart, near Los Angeles, conducted a tent revival and preached
      full-orbed
      Petrine ecclesiology. Glenn Cook and Ewart baptized each other according
      to Acts
      2:38; 8:16. This meant that “Modalistic Monarchianism and
      Patripassianism (the
      same as Sabellianism), continued from AD 33. Here were men like Noetus,
      Sabellius,
      Paul of Samosata, Wolflein, etc., and they continued Upper Room doctrine.
      BIBLICAL DOCTRINE WAS SLANDERED!
1561. It is the strangest phenomena — how that adverse clerics have ignored,
      or perse-
      cuted, or slandered doctrinal ingredients constituting Deut. 6;4, Acts 2:1-4,
      38, 8:16,
      19:5! For holding monotheism pious Jews were subjected to the Spanish
      Inquisition
      and to Auschwitz. Samosatenes were persecuted by the popes and the
      Roman armies
      for holding the Christ baptismal doctrine. (Blunt, pp. 510-515). The
      Assembly of God
      clerics also continued that spirit of slander by calling Oneness Apostolics:
      “Sabellians,
      hopeless heretics, Jesus Only, and radical monotheists!” (V. Synan, p. 164;
      F. Foster,
      p. 65). Theological phenomena — especially concerning name calling — have
      changed
      but little in 1700 years!
1562. ONENESS APOSTOLIC PENTECOSTALISM swept through
      Canada.
      (F. Foster, pp. 60, 61).
      1914-1916. Oneness Revivals swept the Southern States.
1563. THE ASSEMBLIES of GOD REJECTED ACTS 2:38 Petrine
      doctrine. Historically, this was no innovation. Waldo accomplished a similar rejection in AD
      1179 when
      he accepted Rome’s Godhead theory. (Blunt, p. 617).
      AD 1900
      APOSTOLIC CHURCH
      ONENESS APOSTOLIC ORGANIZATIONS
      Primitive Judaic Christianity had origin at Jerusalem. The Jewish Apostles,
      deacons,
      elders, brethren and lay members, mentioned in Acts 6:1-6; 15:1-7, 22,
      collectively
      constituted THE CHURCH. This Apostolic body constituted a specifically
      religious
      organization. Succeeding it — and throughout each century — there have
      been functionally similar organizations under different names — each adhering
      tenaciously to
      Petrine ecclesiology found in Acts two. (Blunt, p. 189; O’Dea, The
      Sociology of Religion, p. 37). These religious organizations arose mostly out of need —
      sometimes
      severe stress — and religious association proved to be helpful and aided in
      the
      spread of Jersalemic (Acts 2:38) doctrine.
1564. On January 3, there was founded, The GENERAL ASSEMBLY of the
      APOSTOLIC ASSEMBLIES. ( A. L. Clanton, United We Stand, p. 23).
1565. The Rev. Frazee founded The PENTECOSTAL ASSEMBLIES of the
      WORLD, in Los Angeles. (Ibid., p. 27). Around 1917 the great and famous
      G. T.
      Haywood, of Indianapolis, Indiana, became president of the PA of W. (V.
      Synan,
      p. 95). He was among the greatest of Apostolics.
1566. At CHRIST CHURCH APOSTOLIC, in Royal Oak, Michigan, an
      Ethiopian
      prince who possessed the Holy Ghost and advocated the Acts 2:38 water
      baptism —
      affirmed that this religion was then current in his country and had never been
      absent.
      (Ross Paddock, Kalamazoo, Mich.).
1567. In September, the Pentecostal Church Incorporated, and The
      Pentecostal Assemblies of Jesus Christ, merged and formed THE UNITED
      PENTECOSTAL
      CHURCH, Inc., located at Hazelwood, Missouri. (Ibid., pp. 128, 129).
      Another great
      Oneness Apostolic organization is THE ASSEMBLIES of the LORD
      JESUS CHRIST,
      of Memphis, TN.
1568. On May 14, Israel became a NATION!
1569. In November, THE APOSTOLIC WORLD CHRISTIAN
      FELLOWSHIP, Inc.,
      of South Bend, Indiana, published a letter stating that it was constituted by
      fifty-five
      (55) Apostolic organizations, with affiliated ministers numbering 8,000.
      (letter, Nov.
      1984, So. Bend, Ind.).
      UNIVERSAL ONENESS APOSTOLIC CHRISTIANITY in the 20th
      CENTURY
1570. There is a powerful Oneness Apostolic organization in China, and on
      Taiwan,
      under the name — TRUE JESUS CHURCH. Also in Old Mexico, there are
      mighty
      bodies of Oneness Apostolic Christians, as well in Central and South
      America.
      We have seen that the primitive Judaic-Christian Church, of Jerusalem, AD
      33, made
      its way doctrinally intact through every century into our day. The present is
      — to
      some extent — indicative of the past. In relation, Oneness Apostolics have
      always
      been the same — morally and doctrinally conscientious.

      About The Author
      Reverend Marvin M. Arnold was born on March 24, 1921, in Neodesha,
      Kansas.
      The family moved to Buchanan, Michigan in 1937.
      In June, of 1938, Arnold and his family were coverted to Apostolic
      Pentecostal
      Christianity. Fascinated, after having embraced the tenets constituting Acts
      2:1-4,
      38, he began to intensely study both the Holy Bible and religious history.
      In 1942 he entered the US Army Air Corps, serving in Africa,
      Newfoundland,
      Canada, and the Azores. He preached in the Base Chapel at Dakar, Senegal
      French
      W. Africa. When discharged he entered into full time ministry, and in time
      founded
      five Apostolic Churches. Simultaneously, he conducted researches in the
      biggest
      libraries.
      He entered formal theological training, in time obtaining his Bachelor and
      Master of
      Theology degrees.
      Then recognition for his research came! Recognition for thirty-three years of
      relentlessly compiling Apostolic religious history. His productions, “History of
      the
      Christian Church,” “Apostolic History Outline,” and the, “Origin And
      Spread of
      Man,” have been put into print. For these literary works the Pioneer College,
      Beebe,
      Arkansas, awarded him a Doctor of Divinity degree. The Parkersburg Bible
      College,
      Parkersburg, W. Va., presented him with a Doctor of Theology degree. He is
      recognized as a historian.
      To obtain accurate information Arnold traveled in the interior of Turkey. He
      researched at Nicaea — the city of the famed Nicene Council of AD 325. He visited
      the archaeologically interesting sites of Ephesus, Pergamos, Thyatira and Laodicea. He
      traveled
      along the Kizilirmak, Ceyhan, and Seyhan Rivers where the first
      Antediluvians walked.
      He visited the ancient Hittite capital, Kayseri. He saw the unique Goreme
      Valley, almost
      a fairy-tale land pf exotic pyramids of stone. This famed valley has
      subterranean cities
      like Kaymakli and Derinkuyu, and 360 solid-stone cave churches.
      Apostolics fled to
      this valley from several of the big persecutions.
      He also traveled in Iraq, investigating archaelogical sites such as the Tower
      of Babel
      in the Shinarian Plain, as well as the ruins of Babylon. He researched in the
      Baghdad
      Museum, the British museum, and the University Museum of Philadelphia.
      He traveled
      in Israel, visited Qumran, and saw Jordan and Syria. He traveled in Greece
      and saw
      Mars Hill and Corinth.
      With an Iraqi government guide Arnold traveled to the remote,
      archaeologically interesting city-state ruins of Uruk (Warka) on a remote arm of the Euphrates. He
      saw the
      preFlood city-state ruins of Lagash, Eridu, and Ur.
      Another highlight of his life was when he met the top officials of the TRUE
      JESUS
      CHURCH of China on November 15, 1986, at Taipei, in a great conference.
      He traveled in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China in 1986.
      Reverend Arnold went to the above efforts to obtain information. It is hoped
      that the
      accumulated information in this outline will help all studious persons.
      Relatedly, much
      history has been distorted, as noted. A revisionist historian has been needed
      for a long
      time. This research has been partially conducted with that in mind in order to
      sweep aside Catholic propaganda, falsity, and slanders. It is high time to sweep aside
      some of
      the pervision of history. This writer has produced a more reliable version of
      Apostolic
      history. I endorse this book. The “APOSTOLIC HISTORY OUTLINE” has
      been designed to increase your knowledge concerning Apostolic Christian history.
      F. A. Rice
      APOSTOLIC
      HISTORY OUTLINE
      Here is a nutshell version of the history and theology
      of
      Oneness Christian Pentecostalism.
      Nothing in the line of Church History is more
      fascinating,
      almost intriguing, than the great story of the Apostolic
      Christian Movement found in many pages of religious
      history.
      True enough, the “Jesus Name” or “Oneness”
      Movement
      to some has been one of the most perplexing of
      religious
      phenomena. Nevertheless, without the Oneness
      Apostolic
      Christians there would have been no worthwhile
      religious
      history made!
      APOSTOLICS MADE HISTORY!
