CLIFFORD HILL ~ VOICE FOR JUSTICE: DESCENT INTO MYTH AND ERROR

Voice for Justice UK ~ Day of Repentance and Prayer.

Voice for Justice is a professing Christian organization that recently issued an appeal to: "Stand with us as we cry out to Him to deliver us from the Covid-19 pandemic" on the 25th of April. 

Why the 25th of April? 


Voice for Justice based its Day of Repentance and Prayer on the Roman Catholic annual procession known as "Greater Litanies". According to RC myth, the Archangel Michael appeared on this date on two occasions and stopped two separate plagues. Those who took part in this troubling event were duped into giving credibility to apparitions and to Roman Catholic myths. (2 Timothy 4:4). The spiritism and superstition associated with Roman Catholicism is at complete odds with biblical Christianity! Will God hear the prayers of those who have turned away from Him and cling to deceit? (Jeremiah 8:5, 14:12).

VFJ: "In 590 AD, Rome was suffering from a terrible plague that killed off vast swathes of the population. Amongst the first to die was the Pope. He was immediately replaced, by unanimous vote, by Gregory I.. On 25thApril, the third day as they processed through the streets, as ever led in person by Gregory, the Archangel Michael was seen standing at the top of the castle of Crescentius – a short walk from the Vatican – wiping a bloody sword. In response to the crowd’s prayer, he sheathed it at his side. And from that moment the plague stopped.

Some years later, in 1631, Mexico found itself similarly ravaged by plague. Once again the people joined in prayer for deliverance, joining in procession through the streets on 25th April. In response, the Archangel Michael again appeared, this time to a 17 year-old boy, Diego de San Lázaro. However Diego, fearful of how people would respond to the revelation, dragged his feet in passing on the Archangel’s commands, with the result that he was himself struck down with plague – which lifted a week later when Michael appeared to him again – surrounded this time by blazing light and witnessed by all standing near. This time Diego obeyed and passed on the Archangel’s commands. And the plague was miraculously halted."


Further details about the first apparition in 590AD reveals the full extent of the myth:

First Apparition: The plague in Rome miraculously ended. —The Virgin Mary and St. Michael appear to Pope St. Gregory the Great.

"As the procession wound along the Tiber River, the Litany of Saints was intoned. At the conclusion of the litany, Saint Gregory’s gaze was drawn upwards and he suddenly saw the heavens open. Saint Michael the Archangel, along with numerous other Angels, descended above the crowd and a heavenly perfume seemingly filled the air. The angels began singing the “Regina Cœli” to the Blessed Virgin Mary, who was seated on a throne above St. Michael and the Angels. St. Michael sheathing his sword atop the Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome

Completely overwhelmed by the incredible sight, Saint Gregory concluded the angelic chorus by singing out the closing lines of the Regina Cœli: “Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia! Gaude et lætare, Virgo Maria, alleluia! Quia surrexit Dominus vere, alleluia.” (Pray for us to God, alleluia! Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia! For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia!).

At the conclusion of the vision, the great pope witnessed Saint Michael sheathing his sword, and to the great joy of all the inhabitants, the horrific plague came to an end. The beautiful Church called Castel Sant’Angelo stands at the site where Saint Michael and his fellow angels had appeared on that day along with the Blessed Virgin Mary.

From then on, April 25th, the date of the apparition marking the end of the plague, has become the date for the annual procession that would come to be known throughout the Catholic world as the “Greater Litanies”, since it was St. Michael along with the Angels who joined in reciting the Litanies on that day. Nowadays the “Greater Litanies” processions are sometimes called “St. Mark’s processions” because the date also coincides with the feast of St. Mark. {1}

An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign

VFJ: "Let us pray for a sign of that deliverance to all mankind, that they may honour Christ, and Christ alone."   

VFJ: "Once again our world is subject to a terrible pestilence.. Let us pray for a mighty sign of deliverance that will shake this and every nation to the core in wonder and awe."

The bible speaks specifically against seeking after signs: “An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. (Matthew 12:39 cf. 1 Corinthians 1:22-24).

Ecumenism does not honour Christ alone!

Ecumenist Clifford Hill of Issachar Ministries prayed for "a spirit of repentance to come in this nation" in order to remove the virus. A "spirit of repentance" implies something other than the Holy Spirit - this phrase is not found in the New Testament. It is ironic that the very people calling for repentance are the very ones who have departed from the key New Testament precept of faith alone and are complicit in promoting a false gospel. (James 2:24). The RCC follows a "different gospel" in that they insist upon various sacraments in addition to faith for salvation. I see no repentance among the main denominations for this primary sin! (2 Corinthians 11:4). The RCC and their ecumenical associates operate under the Spirit of Error (1 John 4:6). If professing Christians fail in this regard, then they fail completely.

VJF: "Session 2: A stiff-necked people – Repentance for our ungodly laws: Revd Dr Clifford Hill, Director of Issachar Ministries and editor-in-chief of Prophecy Today UK." Are not those who follow Marian apparitions and a false gospel "stiff necked"? Hill wrongly implies that Christians can repent of "ungodly laws". Once again he misses the point completely. Repentance is an individual, not a corporate exercise. Good moral decisions follow sound doctrine. Christians should pray for those in authority, but they are not required to repent on a national level. (1 Timothy 2:2).

Repentance and prayer for deliverance? 

I sense the intention of VFJ was to "make a deal" with God through this event. Paul urged: First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people.. (1 Timothy 2:1). However ..may your will be done. (Matthew 6:10, 26:42). God knows the motives of men's hearts and the real agenda behind COVID-19. (1 Corinthians 4:5).

The whole event was based on a false premise

VFJ have put their own skewed interpretation on the COVID-19 crisis. Hill's claim that "..this virus is troubling all the nations of the world today" is questionable. {3} There is evidence that COVID-19 statistics are highly exaggerated, and that this PLANdemic is not primarily medical, but political in origin. COVID-19 cannot be classified as a "pandemic", even with official statistics!

Chief Scientific Adviser Sir Patrick Vallance: "It is worth remembering again that the ONS rate of people who have got COVID on their death certificate, it doesn't necessarily mean they were  infected because many of them haven't been tested, so we just need to understand the difference." {4}

  1. Very interesting article Treena. I put a link to this page on a forum site I contribute to.
    Nicky Gumbal is also waving the ecumenical banner.(No surprise there)

    I came out of the charismatic delusion not long after Copeland declared Francis the Talking Pope his brother in Christ and single handedly "ended" the Protestant reformation, dismissing it as a "church split" caused by a "religious spirit". Soon after this I read about the Pope selling indulgences online while touring South America and hauling a famous statue of Mary from a foreign land to the Vatican! This would be funny if ao many people were not following these deceivers.
    I am not in accord with the author's Calvinism, but this a good article on the meeting of the two Popes fron 2014. My best to you. Mike
