There was a group of ancient Christians that had separated themselves from the state church that could worship the Lord as the New Testament required.

      They were believers who were Protestants before Martin Luther posted his Ninety-five Theses on the Wittenberg church door. When he proclaimed these truths creating the Protestant Reformation.

Manuscripts of the Bible were secretly copied and smuggled from city to city to share with the underground church. It was illegal to read the Bible according to the official church law.

The western world entered the 'Dark Ages' spiritually for many centuries.

     Despite the satanic attacks on the truth, millions of Christians resisted the inquisition and corruption. Many other Bible believing Christians held to the faith through trials, torture and death.

During the Mediaeval period of the church, satan almost destroyed the early faith of the first Christians.

     Evil officials of the church took on political and financial powers along with worldly leaders.

          They made laws forbidding christians from having Bibles or to worship like those in the New Testament.

Over the centuries the Roman state church took on many Babylonian mystical religious features to appeal to the new pagan converts.

      Pagan practices includes cultish images, false miracles, elevating the clergy above the worshippers and vast corruption.
