The NKJV & the
Triquetra Part 2
The following is a follow up of my
earlier article on the topic of the triquetra, which is the symbol on the cover
of the so called New King James Bible. Due to a number of computer and e-mail
related issues, I had to alter the text of the earlier article and omit all
graphics. I also had trouble with the file becoming corrupt due to its very
enormous size. To make up for this shortcoming I have included here a list of
websites that discuss, promote, and sell Triquetras. In order to be as objective
as possible, I concentrate
mostly upon sites that are favorable to the triquetra. Only the last small
section is devoted to critiques of the symbol, and I only included them because
they present other examples presented by groups that favor the use of it, and
some of these sites have since disappeared from the internet (although everyone
of them was still there when I first wrote the early draft of my first Triquetra
article). I commented enough in my first article, and it would be unnecessary
and redundant to do so here. These sites speak volumes about the Triquetra, so I
will let them tell us what we need to know about the New King James Bible
promoters.
I will restrict my discussion to
the use of the Triquetra by the modern "Christian" church. It is the NKJV
publisher’s claim that the Triquetra is a Christian symbol, so let us examine
what churches use it. There are three types of churches that favor the Triquetra.
Number one is the Catholic Church. This is the church that promotes many pagan
symbols, elevates Mary to a goddess, prays to gods masquerading as saints, calls
its priests father in direct defiance of the command of Jesus that we call no
man father,
denies its priests marital relationships while ignoring the molestation of young
boys, places pagan Greek philosophers over the Bible, discourages Bible reading,
and which formerly murdered anyone who tried to make the Bible available to the
masses. It is also
the church that makes a god of a man dressed in scarlet, who lives in a house
full of pagan art from Rome, Greece, Egypt, and other parts of the world, and
which is adorned with art that is pagan, homo-erotic, and pornographic. This is
the church that first
started using the Triquetra.
The second type of church is all
of the apostate modern 501(c)3 corporate denominations that, like proper whores,
(1)
are returning to their madam, which is the Catholic Church. These modern
churches include the United Methodist, United Church of Christ, Episcopalian,
most Lutheran denominations, and even some liberal forms of Baptists, who
approve of and promote the murder of unborn babies, the "marrying" of same-sex
couples, the ordaining of sodomites as ministers and ministerettes, and the
acceptance of New
Age beliefs and practices.
The third type is the modern party house style of 501(c)3 corporations that do
not know the difference between churches and hip hangouts for partying,
immodesty, obscene dancing, and Satanic music that mocks God. Although the NIV
is more popular with these establishments, the NKJV is also very popular. As I
wrote in my first Triquetra article, I
witnessed a professed Christian band that sported Triquetras on all of their
album covers play Satanically inspired music for over an hour, and later found
that all of the Bibles in the church were NKJV's with large and prominent
Triquetras on them. The symbol does fit these churches, as it does with the
other two types listed above.
Here is an incomplete, but representative, list of Triquetra sites that tell us all we need to know about the NKJV, its promoters,
and the churches that display them:

Notes:
Do not idly explore the occult sites listed
above. The author provided these urls
strictly for the purpose of documenting the triquetra's pagan associations and
uses. The children of God must "learn not the way of the heathen." (Jer.
10:2)
It is the heathen, not "the
offspring of God," who represent the Godhead with silver, stone, graven art and
man's device:
"Forasmuch then as we are
the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto
gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device." (Acts 17:29)
(1) The words "whore" and
"harlot" in reference to the Catholic church are used to describe a
false religious system that has departed from the truth as set forth in
the Holy Bible alone. These words do not imply that born again
individuals who were raised in Catholic homes (but have since left this
false system) are spiritual harlots or whores.
