Way back, 2006-2007, Jack Chick and I heard about a book
called, "Codeword:Barbelon."
Very interesting book.
We actually ended up spending five years reading
all the way through the book, from front to back.
It was amazing.
But it had some almost outlandish-sounding points in it.
Well, it turns out that this book by P.D.
Stuart, "Codeword: Barbelon,"
has all sorts of references to different books.
And so what I did is, whenever I found
a reference to a book, I'd mark it.
And then I'd start looking for that book.
And when I got it, I'd put a check mark.
I ended up with a couple hundred books that way.
It was amazing.
And so I got to go through the history myself.
At one point we thought it would be really important
to get out a comic book on the Jesuits.
And Jack granted me the right to do that.
But to do that, we'd have to learn
more about the Jesuits.
One of the things that Codeword: Barbelon talked about
was something called, "The Constitutions
of the Society of Jesus."
I didn't know what that was.
And I couldn't find it, either.
So one day at my father in law's house,
I was praying in the morning, and I was telling God,
"I cannot find 'The Constitutions.'"
And I just heard in my heart, "Look it up in Latin."
I went, "Great, I don't read Latin.
Okay, I do have a translator that does one word at a time.
Okay, I can try something.
So, 'Constitutiones Societatis Jesu.'
Okay."
So I looked up those words.
And you know what?
POP!
Google Books had it right there, in plain sight!
And I went, "Great.
I've got this Latin book.
What's that gonna do for me?
But it's okay."
So I downloaded it, and OCR'd it
and then started looking through it.
Well, it turns out that right in the middle point,
IT'S ENGLISH!
So I began from that to read the entire Constitutions
of the Society of Jesus to Jack.
And so we're writing notes and stuff, and we're summarizing
and talking it through.
And then one day, one of the people who work here
had re-categorized and organized our library.
And I was looking for something totally different,
And I ended up pulling out George Ganss's book,
of the Society of Jesus, of the Constitutions
of the Jesuit Order.
It was actually their 1970 edition.
I was amazed!
"Oh my goodness!
There it is!"
And so, we went from that and compared notes
between the two.
And it turned out that the one that was gleaned from
copies that were left behind when the Jesuits were
chased out of England and other countries.
It turned out to be very, very accurate.
So we were able to test all the propositions in here,
and clarify some mistakes in a number of books
that we have had on the Jesuit Order.
And that came together into this comic, called "Jesuits."
Would you like to hear just the introduction?
Hi, I'm David Daniels from Chick Publications.
Every morning, when we would work on the tract
or comic book, we'd start out by:
I'd read and use all the voices.
And it would entertain Jack.
But it would also get us back into the mindset.
So here's the beginning.
It's 3:15!
Hit it!
CRASH!
What's that?!
Daddy!
Mommy!
Oh no...
The kids!
Helen!
Thwip
Owrooo
Mommy!
Where are you taking me?
You'll see!
VROOOOOM!!
Surely that's not necessary!
Remove that hood, please!
Yes sir!
Sorry sir.
I'm so sorry for any inconvenience we may have caused you.
Rest assured, your family is safe.
Safe?
Once I heard the news, Sam, I made it my personal mission
to get your family out in time.
My family?
Are they here?
You'll see them soon.
You don't realize how fortunate you are.
A few more minutes might have been too late.
But my babies?...
Your children are fine, Helen.
The doctor is making sure they are okay.
I just don't understand what's happening.
We do!
We've been monitoring your situation for months.
Times are changing.
Your public speaking is causing unrest and fear.
I was sure your kind would understand...
Understand what?
What do you mean our kind?
The topics you are speaking on
violate our newest hate crimes statutes.
Your words cause people to commit hate crimes.
That's why we had to move your kind
into a secure location... to protect you!
Does anybody doubt that something like that
can happen in these days?
If you want to know more about the Jesuit Order,
and the research that we did, after reading all those different books
that are referenced from Codeword: Barbelon,
reading the Constitutions of
the Society of Jesus, and such, check it out!
I've got it all summarized really nicely
in this comic book, Jesuits.
God bless you and have a wonderful day.
