1 Corinthians 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
It is important to know who we are dealing with when doing business with people. This is a short list of Time Warner’s affiliations. This document is a compilation of the companies that are owner, partly or in whole, or affiliate with AOL/Time Warner. As Christians, we should have nothing to do with companies that associate themselves with the world in a way that is not Godly. Just look at AOL’s logo – a modernized version of the all-seeing eye inside a triangle with two crescent moons around the eye.
Breakdown of occultic symbolism in the AOL Logo:

•
Triangle Used for magical purposes in casting of spells and the summoning of demons and is believed to be the door through which the demon will be called.
•
The All-Seeing Eye or Udjat (The eye of Lucifer) Believed to be the eye of Lucifer and those who claim control of it have control of world finances. Used in divination. Hexes, curses, psychic control and all corruption are worked through this emblem.
•
The Crescent Moon A symbol of the aging goddess (crone) to contemporary witches and victory over death to many Muslims.
As you can see Time Warner also uses the All-Seeing Eye, or Udjat [the eye of Lucifer], on their logo. The eye is also designed to represent a modernized spiral in some form.
•
Use of the Spiral in the Occult Ancient Goddess symbol of universal pattern of growth in nature. A variation with three lines was used by some to represent the number of the beast … 666.
It is very easy to see that these companies are part of a company that does not uphold Godly values or follow Jesus Christ at all, and we as Christians, should watch who we do business with. AOL is only one of the many companies that are affiliate with Time Warner in some form or another. Most Christians don’t have a clue about the history and affiliations of companies they deal with on a day to day basis. This is by no means a complete list of companies that Christians should avoid doing business with, but it can serve a beginning for everyone to start with when cleansing their life. To begin this, lets read some about the history of this corporation that has now become the largest media group in the world.

Remember, as you read through this list of companies, that every time we obtain something from one of them, we are supporting the un-Godly practices of the parent company. You will see in the book section that Warner Faith Publishing is a division of Hachette Book Group, USA, who publishes various “Christian” authors. It is obvious to see that the so-called “Christian” authors are strictly in the book writing thing for the money involved. And as we all know, the love of money is the root of all evil.

Now, I am not saying that we can stop dealing with all of these companies tomorrow, however, I am saying that it is time for us to stop taking part in the sins of this world and begin to become the peculiar people God created us to be, which involves disciplining our flesh and training ourselves to not deal with these companies. In Jesus, all things are possible, and He is our strength when we are weak, therefore, we can be confident that the Lord will honor our respect for wanting to follow as close to the commandments of Jesus as possible. There are some of you right now saying, “Yea, but we can use the avenues before us to get the Gospel out.” Reality check for us all is to realize that God is not capable of using the tools of the enemy to explain His ways and to bless His children. God just does it. God will not speak to us through the ways of the enemy. Some of you will disagree with this next statement, but the truth is the truth. Christians should NOT be watching the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). The owners, Paul and Jan Crouch, are associated with Reverend Sun Myung Moon, who has proclaimed himself the Messiah and has said that Jesus told him to complete Jesus’ mission that You are encouraged to copy & distribute the information contained in this study course.

He failed to complete when on this earth. Any Christian in their right mind knows that Christ did NOT fail when He walked this earth, but rather He was successful in saving us out of this world. There are a lot of other problems with TBN, and all the evangelists they have on the show, but far too numerous to list here. I trust and hope that you will seek out the truth about the world we are living in and that you see the reality of the situation we are living in on this earth. We must realize that the prince of the power of the air is Satan, not Jesus. We must realize the ruler of this world is Satan and not Jesus. Jesus came to save us out of this world. Jesus did not come to bring peace to this world. Look up the facts presented here. Do some research of your own to find out who is behind the companies that run our world and you will be amazed. May the Lord bless you and yours.
