THE TITANIC a.k.a. THE UNSINKABLE SHIP

CHAPTER ONE 

A TITANIC REALIZATION                In 1912 the largest and most luxurious ship that was ever built would take its maiden voyage across the seas. It was billed as the unsinkable and fastest ship ever built. The richest people in the world would buy the most expensive tickets in the history of maritime travel to ride on its pristine and proud decks and enjoy its luxury cabins. It was an exciting time for the public and an exciting time for the builders and engineers of the Titanic. The passengers were told that the ship was the finest ship ever built and of the highest quality of any ship in the world. These passengers were told that the ship was impregnable and could not sink. They were told not to worry about their being too few life jackets and two few life boats, because these would be unnecessary anyway because of how well the ship was built.  Engineers boasting the most prestigious university degrees in the world assured everyone that cared to ask that the ship was the safest ship in the world. Proud captains who had many years of experience sailing and maritime travel of the finest ships of that day concurred with the engineers that the Titanic was unsinkable.  The publicity generated in the newspaper was resounding and loud that whoever could afford a ticket the Titanic would eat the best food, enjoy the best music, and retire to the most beautiful and ornate cabins ever to be built into a ship.  There were tennis courts, swimming pools, shuffle board, restaurants and board rooms fit for a king or queen. The public went wild along with the Hollywood elite, millionaire bankers, the social elite all added to the credibility of the builders and financiers of the Titanic. No one who would purchase a ticket would ever be disappointed at the value and the opportunity to go down in history if they booked passage on the Titanic. The Titanic took off from her port with the usual ribbon cutting and a bottle of expensive champagne being broken over its bow and to the cheers of thousands of onlookers on the shore and on the ship itself.  It was history being made and people were happy being a part of the historic launch of the Titanic, the unsinkable ship. The ship sailed out to sea and the guest were pampered with all the things that they were promised. There were live bands, gourmet cooked food, dancing, parties and games.  The crew was sharp and experienced and picked from the finest mariners of that time.  The rich millionaires and Hollywood socialites reveled in the moments of ecstasy aboard this beautiful ocean liner. People took pictures and purchased newspapers to commemorate the event.  It was reported that the ship carried a large cache of gold and jewels for affluent businessmen and the corporate elite.  Love was in the air, couples caroused until all hours of the night and day. They made love and had love, and gave love. They were experiencing what was thought to be heaven on earth, just to be able to afford to be on the ship. Even the workers below who did all of the hard jobs, who cared for the guests, who cooked, cleaned, mop floors and washed dishes were happy just to be on the Titanic. A new era was being made a new time or prosperity and travel was at hand. The Captain of the ship was so confident that he delegated the job of guiding the ship to his subordinates and began to carouse and get drunk with the guests onboard the ship. They sailed in the icy Atlantic Ocean with ease and the power of the huge steam engines and propellers that powered the ship. There was seemingly nothing that could stop the Titanic; there was nothing that could stop man’s dream.  Man was a now feeling that he himself was a humanistic god, creating and elevating himself above the heavens, above the oceans, above all limitations and the obstacles of earth.  Then all of a sudden the True God spoke in the form of an iceberg that was in front of the ship. The crew saw the iceberg, they knew that it would cause much damage to the vessel, they realized only now that the vessel could in actuality be damaged beyond repair, and they tried with all their might to steer the great Titanic away from the icy mounds. They pulled, they tugged, and they reversed the engines and propellers.  The passengers were sent tumbling to the decks by the sudden reversal and braking of the ship trying to change course suddenly. And then what happened next was the worst thing that could have happened to any ship, especially the Titanic. The ship suddenly and forcefully collided with an iceberg that caused great and insurmountable damage to the Titanic. The blow to the ship was so great that it tore gaping holes in the lower portion of the ship, great, large huge holes underwater.  The ship was taking on so much water so quickly that the captain and crew determined that they would sacrifice the lowly workers who were in the steam engine room, who lived in the underwater portion in small ruddy little cubicles, not fit to be called cabins.  The servants and the servant’s quarters were filling with water, and the decision was made to just let them drown, in order to save the aristocracy that was on the upper levels, in the hope that the ship could be saved, by the sacrificing of the lowly lives of the servants and deck hands that lived below. The Captain gave the order to let them drown and seal off that underwater portion of the ship, in hopes that the breach could be sewn up by their deaths, and the rest of the ship could be saved. But, it was impossible, even this desperate and grave sacrifice could not stop the Titanic from starting to sink and take on more salty ocean water than possibly could be pumped out by all the pumps onboard. It occurred to the Captain and the crew in that moment, that the Titanic, billed as the unsinkable ship, could and probably was going to sink. The Captain ordered the crew to send out a desperate May Day call to any nearby ships. The Captain and the crew only in that moment realized that they did not have enough life vests onboard, and that they did not have enough life rafts for most of passengers. If a ship did not arrive to help them soon, that many and most of the passengers onboard the Titanic would drown and freeze to death in the frigid waters of the Atlantic ocean.  The May Day call for help went out, as the Captain prepared to tell the passengers the bad and evil news that the unsinkable ship Titanic was sinking.  The crew after a briefing by the Captain began to try to contact the richest and most powerful on board first, while lying and deceiving the middle class and poor who were unfortunate enough to be onboard. It was apparent that unless the information was slowly leaked to the affluent, there would be a stampede and a panic, because the Titanic was slowly sinking to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. The unsinkable Titanic was now a death trap to all those who were onboard the ship. The Captain was so scared he was decided abandon his own ship. He scurried into a lifeboat to save himself, and risked criminal trial to save his own life. Displaying cowardice after telling people that the ship he was Captain of was unsinkable.  The May Day call was unheard; the common passengers onboard knew something was amiss. They saw the rich and elite getting into life jackets, and getting lowered into the ocean in lifeboats. They saw the panic and heard crying and weeping and began to panic themselves. Suddenly it was a stampede and panic that all had feared would happen. The passengers began to fight over life vests, and fight to get a seat in the too few life rafts. It was hysteria on the high seas; the proud Titanic had seduced them all in a false since of security by her size, and by her attendants, engineers, Captain, crews and their financiers. It was a tragic and fateful event, as the ship slowly got lower and lower into the icy waters. The lower decks were now underwater, the passengers still frantically tried to find a way to fit too many passengers into too few life rafts. It was the horror of horrors and worst possible scenario, because man had believed that he was a god that controls his own destiny and fate. Man had forgotten that there is only one supreme and omnipotent God. Jesus Christ the Savior of the world was ignored, while man worshiped engineering and science.  The Lord God of the entire universe was not consulted by the Captain, nor the crew, nor the financiers or the newspapers. But, now they wailed and cried out for the true God, only too late to be saved.  Now they remembered that man was not God that man had failed many times before to be equal with God. It now came to their mind that science was created by God, not gods created by science.                            Then the ship suddenly folded itself into two pieces in the middle of the icy, frigid Atlantic Ocean. And both separate parts began to plunge beneath the waves, with many living souls still on board, being tossed, shaken, drowned, electrocuted, frozen, broken, killed, rammed, hurled and damned to a devils hell. Only moments earlier they had be making merry and carousing and involved in sexual promiscuity and evil. Now, they called for the mercies of God, but it was everlasting too late.                         Just like this Titanic event many who espouse false doctrines, claiming a Holy Trinity and preaching a Triune God, not preached by the apostles, will be very similar to those who were trapped in and died on the Titanic. They have been sold a false bill of goods by their denominations, Pastors and false Apostles. They have been told that they have Eternal Security; they have been told that the Titanic lie of a Holy Trinity would save them from their sins. They have been sold tickets to a False Doctrine that assured them that they would be okay in the hereafter.  They have been told that they did not need the life raft of the Baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of their sins according to Acts 2:38 and other like scriptures. The sheep were told that the bloodless baptism In the name of the father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit was enough. They will be standing in front of Jesus at the great white throne judgment with insufficient credentials to enter the eternal kingdom, and like the people onboard the Titanic, will be lost for eternity. And like the fateful maiden voyage of the Titanic they are doomed to go to the eternal tortures of Hell for their disobedience, reveling, and unbelief.

CHAPTER TWO   

THE TITANIC, BRITTANIC, & OLYMPIC CURSE                Many people did not know that the Titanic had two sister ships created and commissioned by the White Star Line shipping company. It appears that the Olympic was the first super-liner or so called unsinkable ship.  The Titanic in fact had two sister ships, the Olympic and the Britannic. The first superliner was the Olympic which was the first ship to be damaged and almost sunk after a collision with another ship and should have sent a message to the White Star Line, the engineers, designers and ship captains that there was a major problem with the design. However; somehow nonsensically they believed that if the ship was only larger is would make it impregnable and unsinkable. Even though this is not logical that a larger heavier ship is in the water the more likely that it was unsinkable. It would appear that it was the opposite that would hold true, that the smaller lighter a ship was the more buoyant it would be if damage or catastrophe struck. So, instead of making a smaller lighter  ocean liner the White Star shipping company built the larger Titanic and the even larger Britannic. The Olympic was badly damaged when it rammed a Russian submarine and later sank in a separate incident. The Titanic was the first to sink and then the even larger Britannic also sank to the bottom of the ocean and killed thousands.                   It is the idea of the three that has caused mankind some much misguided effort in many areas of modern society. The Titanic, Britannic, and Olympic represent this false idea. The unholy trinity of ships parallels the unholy trinity of pagan societies all over the world. As a matter of fact the three ships where actually named after the primary three gods of Greek mythology, known as the gods of Olympus. Every pagan religion in the world has three primary gods in their system. And it is from these pagan religions that the doctrine of trinity sprang and was borrowed. The modern Christian denominations tried to dress the idea up, by calling it the Holy Trinity. While God is absolutely holy, a doctrine that espoused three gods cannot be holy. The Holy Spirit is absolutely holy, the Son is absolutely holy, and the Father Jehovah is absolutely holy because Jesus is their complete revelation and totality.  But, the doctrine of Holy Trinity is like trying to call spoiled food by a delicious name. Which is the whole idea and definition of an oxymoron. It is like calling a rotten apple, deliciously rotten. Or like trying to call a bad smell by a pleasant aromatic name.  There can be no wonderfully stinky aromas and there cannot be a Christian doctrine that espouses three gods in the godhead. The children of Israel when they grew tired of the theocracy of God demanded a monarchy (a king) to be like other neighboring pagan nations. The Trinitarian doctrine is just that, a religion so that Christians can be like pagan nations a have a polytheistic system.                 However; it is the same in theology that the bigger the lie or heresy is the more likely is that it was true. There is an analogy to be drawn from the three super ocean liners and the Holy Trinity and God in three persons theology.  The Olympic, Titanic and Britannic was a trinity that was supposed to be unsinkable. The doctrine of God in three persons is an equally doomed lie.  I and Other Oneness Believers absolutely affirm, revere and worship the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. However; we do not believe that they are three separate persons, but only one person embodied fully in the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We affirm and believe that God manifested himself as "The Father in Creation, The Son in redemption, and the Holy Spirit in regeneration. This idea of trinity and three in one are perhaps the same thinking, ideology and pride that doomed the Titanic sisters. The pride of man drove the engineering and public fanfare that caused the loss of millions of dollars and thousands of lies.  The makers of the Olympic got prouder when their ship almost sank and created an even larger revised version called Titanic. When
