A JESUIT SPEAKS

The most precious and glorious truth for the people of God living in these end times is “knowing” that the devastation that man is about to bring upon the whole earth is nothing less than the sure ‘sign’ that their Lord is soon to return. It is not something that catches them unawares — the Scriptures teach it! And while those who have ignored the Scriptures will be terrified out of their wits, true Christians will calmly endure the calamities, even when accused of being the cause of them, they will wait serenely for the advent of their Saviour and Mighty Lord.

As we come to the end of our study, we bring you full circle, so to direct your attention again to the observation of the first chapter of this book. That is, that there is without a doubt a manufactured crisis being produced by plotters to implement a world change. And in preparation for this ‘change’, the whole Catholic world — a nearly one billion membership out of six billion of the world’s inhabitants — have already been quietly informed, including the imminent catastrophe that will catapult this change into a reality. As a reader of this book, you too, have now been informed.

Of course, the Church of Rome, as usual, has taught her people a deception — not, that the “catastrophe” that is about to fall upon the earth is the works of their own evil hands, but instead, it is taught that it will be the result of a prophecy of the Virgin Mary that has brought mankind under condemnation due to their refusal to worship according to Rome. But the God of Scripture teaches diametrically the Opposite — that you are condemned by God if you ‘stay in’ the false worship system of Rome. The appeal is heard from heaven, (Revelation 18:4) “Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.” Since the world stage has been meticulously set, and Rome now feels overly confident of her success, she makes known openly her role in an allegedly three way competition in the struggle for world domination. This is important and startling for two vital reasons. The first, is because up to now Rome has vehemently denied any such plan. The second, is that Rome is now confirming the role that the God of Scripture has described centuries ago. So let’s take a peek at this incredible confession of Rome, and get an insight of how this contest is going to affect a ‘change’ for the whole human race. Don’t dismiss this as some radical’s ramblings. What we are going to quote from is the very first two pages of the book, “The Keys of This Blood”, by Jesuit Malachi Martin, a former professor at the Vatican’s Pontifical Biblical Institute, and the author of several best-seller books. Hold on — it’s breath-taking!

“Willing or not, ready or not, we are all involved in an all-out, no-holds-barred, three- way global competition. Most of us are not competitors, however. We are the stakes. For the competition is about who will establish the first one-world system of government that has ever existed in the society of nations. It is about who will hold and wield the dual power of authority and control over each of us as individuals and over all of us together as a community; over the entire six billion people expected by demographers to inhabit the earth by early in the third millennium.

The competition is all-out because, now that it has started, there is no way it can be reversed or called off. No holds are barred because, once the competition has been decided, the world and all that’s in it — our way of life as individuals and as citizens of the nations; our families and our jobs; our trade and commerce and money; our educational systems and our religions and our cultures; even the badges of our national identity, which most of us have always taken for granted — all will have been powerfully and radically altered forever. No one can be exempted from its effects. No sector of our lives will remain untouched.

The competition began and continues as a three-way affair because that is the number of rivals with sufficient resources to establish and maintain a new world order.

Nobody who is acquainted with the plans of these three rivals has any doubt but that only one of them can win. Each expects the other two to be overwhelmed and swallowed up in the coming maelstrom of change. That being the case, it would appear inescapable that their competition will end up as a confrontation.

As to the time factor involved, those of us who are under seventy will see at least the basic structures of the new world government installed. Those of us under forty will surely live under its legislative, executive and judiciary authority and control. Indeed, the three rivals themselves — and many more besides as time goes on — speak about this new world order not as something around a distant corner of time, but as something that is imminent. As a system that will be introduced and installed in our midst by the end of this final decade of the second millennium.

What these competitors are talking about, then, is the most profound and widespread modification of international, national and local life that the world has seen in a thousand years. And the competition they are engaged in can be described simply enough as the millennium endgame.”

Now those are pretty strong intimidating words, that leaves only one way for them to be interpreted. It is, in fact, Rome’s Declaration of War against the whole world. And Jesuit Malachi Martin makes it crystal clear, which is also the theme that runs throughout his whole book — that Rome and Pope John Paul II, who is described as being the “Servant of the Grand Design”, have every intention of being the victor in this final global conflict. But in actuality, there are no two other competitors. They are merely pawns in Rome’s hands to serve her in the up- coming ‘staged’ catastrophe.

And this catastrophe is so ‘designed’ that no one will be exempt from its effects — and so that it will touch every sector of our lives! No wonder rational people bristle when told what is afoot. Why only a lunatic would believe that such drastic changes loom on the horizon and could be put into effect sometime during the year 2000. During the American Revolution the rallying cry was, Liberty — Liberty. During the French Revolution, it was Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity. But for this final on-coming ‘mother’ of all “Revolutions”, Rome has something rather unique planned. And strangely, it will involve a humble Jewish girl, named Mary. Let’s elaborate.

A BOGUS PROPHECY

If you are one of those who have never heard of the Fatima apparition, then you may be amazed at what is being taught and promulgated throughout the world. But regardless of whether you believe or accept the story or not, and many certainly don’t, the Fatima aftermath is about to profoundly affect you and every human being living on planet earth. Understanding just how though, touches on things quite bizarre.

Our remarkable story begins the 13th of May in the year 1917 with Mary, the mother of Jesus, who supposedly appeared to three very young shepherd children watching sheep at Fatima, Portugal. Mary’s alleged appearance continued thereafter for six months and always on the 13th of each month until the 13th of October 1917, where she again supposedly appeared, but on this occasion, as a blazing apparition affecting the sun and before a crowd of 70,000 people. The purpose was to give to the world three messages, two were to be revealed, the third to be kept secret until 1960. In the one message that was to be revealed, it has Mary giving an ultimatum where the pope was to consecrate Russia to Mary by 1960 who would then convert to Catholicism. If the pope failed to do this, then the whole world would be chastised severely by Russia’s errors and its evil deeds. Remember that 1917 was also the year of the Bolshevik Revolution and Russia became communist.

However, mysteriously no pope thought it relevant at the time each were in office to consecrate Russia. So 1960 came and went without Russia being consecrated and as a consequence, the world now is under the penalty to expect the devastating punishment declared by Mary. Keep in mind that the date 13th of May 1981 Pope John Paul II was supposedly shot but saved by Mary. This in effect, emphasized the 13th of May date, which had already been declared the official feast day of Mary, as ‘Our Lady of Fatima’. Actually the sacredness of Mary through the years has steadily been increased and promoted within the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church and its order of Jesuit priests, who literally control the Church of Rome and intend to use the dogma of Mary to bring the world unto its submission.

It is quite interesting that Scripture, which was taught by Jesus Christ to be man’s sole guide for divine revelation and God’s truth, has precious little to say about Mary, but very emphatic that when a person dies they can no longer communicate with anyone living on earth. And that includes Mary! Communicating with the dead or the dead communicating with the living is called in Scripture an abomination unto God. (Deut. 18:9-12, Isaiah 8:19, Eccl. 9:4-6 & 10, Psalm 146:4) In other words, the whole Catholic doctrine of Mary is a fabrication and a hoax, along with her counterfeit prophecy; so that when they cause it to happen, they will also claim it to be a divine retribution of God. If that is the truth based on Scripture, who then is making out Mary to be saying the things that she is supposed to be saying? Understanding who controls the Church of Rome makes the answer to that question quite obvious. And what Rome has planned for us is clearly made known in several Catholic references that anyone knowing the past history of Rome would do well to listen to what they are saying and what they have in the wind.

The first of these is from that startling book that we have quoted from a number of times before, titled, “The Keys of This Blood”, written in 1990 by Jesuit priest Malachi Martin. Malachi Martin as a Vatican insider and authority who on the few pages of 623-640, and two pages, 656 and 657, of his book, emphasizes in several places that the world is now under divine condemnation and can imminently expect a very specific event that will bring on immediate world chaos. Quoting from page 639 he says: it will be an “event that will ‘fission’ human history, splitting the immediate past from the oncoming future. It will be an event on public view in the skies, in the oceans, and on the continental landmasses of this planet. It will particularly involve our human sun, which every day lights up and shines upon the valleys, the mountains and the plains of this earth for our eyes. But on the day of this event, it will not appear merely as the master star of our so-called solar system. Rather, it will be seen as the circumambient (encompassing) glory of the Woman”…speaking of Mary. On page 656 referring to this same event he says, “This is why John Paul is waiting. God must first intervene, before John Paul’s ‘major’ ministry to all men can start.” And on page 657 he says that this event “will start unexpectedly and be accompanied by overall confusion of minds and darkening of human understanding.”

In the 25 August 1997 issue of the Newsweek magazine, which featured a cover story titled, “The Meaning of Mary — A Struggle Over Her Role Grows Within the Church”, page 53, it says, “They foresee a supernatural warning, the world’s greatest miracle, followed by three days of darkness they call ‘the great chastisement’. Says Ted Flynn: “I am amazed that more people don’t know about it.”

In a small booklet being circulated by the hundreds of thousands titled, “The Fatima Crusader”, Issue 56, Winter 1998, page 3, in the article, “The Calm Before the Storm”, it says, “We must remember that Our Lady did say, and She meant it and it will take place: In the end, My Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to Me, Russia will be converted and a period of peace will be given to mankind. That is Her prophecy. That is Her prediction. It hasn’t taken place yet but it will.” On page 51 it says, “In the end that She will win. Not only will She win but Russia will become Catholic, not just agnostic or less militant but militantly Catholic.” On page 28 of the same issue of The Fatima Crusader in the article, “Prophetic Dream For Our Time”, it says that when Mary triumphs that “Iniquity is consummated: sin has come to an end and, before the two full moons of the month of the flowers have passed, the rainbow of peace will appear over the earth.”

As a spokesman for the Jesuit order of priests, who are hardly known to most people yet the most powerful organization in the world, Malachi Martin subtly lays out in his book what is going to happen after the year 2000. He calls this struggle for world dominion ruling over a New World Order where only one will emerge victorious, and “willing or not, ready or not, we are all involved”, as the ‘millennium endgame’. And it becomes quite obvious as all of this begins to slowly penetrate into one’s brain: that the “triumph” of Mary; the “one” victorious contender; and “sin” coming to an end… is also synonymous with the Church of Rome again ruling supreme over the world crushing all ‘sin’ or opposition in the process.

But the sober question is — just what is this world catastrophic event that is constantly referred to that is supposed to catapult the “triumph of Mary” and bring to Rome complete and sudden victory?? This awesome worldwide catastrophe that must take place before Pope John Paul II can begin his major ministry and that will nullify everything man is doing on the earth and be accompanied by an overall confusion of minds and darkening of human understanding? The millennium endgame will soon be over. How can all of this possibly happen in so short a time?

Rest assured that Malachi Martin chose carefully when he used the word ‘fission’ several times to refer to the astounding affects this so-called divine event is to have on mankind. The word fission means to split, like an atom in a nuclear bomb. Look it up in a dictionary. Could it be…that the Church of Rome, who declares that she ‘alone’ has the truth and ‘only’ door through which mankind can obtain eternal salvation, has a scheme for the good and benevolence of saving mankind’s souls? Perhaps on Friday the 13th, of October 2000, the date the Jesuits seem to prefer to have Mary to appear and do her supernatural acrobatics, or at the very least, sometime in the immediate future, they plan to have detonated some sort of nuclear device toward the sun, to kick this thing off, so as to make it appear to the whole world as an apparition of Mary?? Would Rome be that ruthless and cruel?? But wasn’t the ‘Holy’ Inquisition also for the very same purpose — the saving of man’s soul?

Imagine the panic and utter chaos from such an outrage as the world is caught completely off guard. Surely the mass media and the nearly one billion Roman Catholic membership will vigorously clamor it to be Mary. Russia will then be consecrated and become militantly Catholic. Who would be able to withstand, when the whole world will be overwhelmed and pressured to conform to Mary’s instructions and become Catholic? Only those who are firmly rooted in Scriptural truth would not be deceived and conform.

GOD SPEAKS

Consider this for a moment: God in His love and mercy has described for His people, given in Scripture nearly two thousand years ago, an exact picture of just such an event that was to occur in the end times. Doesn’t this strike you as marvelous and incredible? And God points out that the whole thing is a deception, and warns all not to be deceived by it. May we quote two verses? “And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And ‘deceiveth’ them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do.” (Revelation 13:13 & 14)

Dear reader: You must understand that we are living in end times. The time that God’s people have waited so long for — is not around some distant corner, it is here and now. You must not be deceived on this issue. You must study — study God’s Word; for within those pages only, is found divine truth. Only through those sacred words will you know what is of God, and prove what is the works of the enemy.

So important; so vital for understanding this issue and for understanding God’s plan of salvation for His people, that He has given to us three of the most extraordinary chapters in the Bible, (Daniel chapter 7 and Revelation chapters 13 and 17) that takes us, step by step, through the last four world empires of man, especially the horrendous and evil acts of the fourth, after which, God promises to establish His own eternal kingdom and then give it to His people. You do not need religious leaders and hired preachers to confuse you. God has given you a good mind. Then read it for yourself and know for a surety, what God has given you to know.

DANIEL CHAPTER SEVEN

As you read the entire 7th chapter of Daniel, you will notice “animals”, which represent world empires, coming up out of the sea or waters. (waters represent peoples, multitudes, and nations and tongues — Rev. 17:15 — or greatly populated areas) But what sea? The Mediterranean Sea! Winds represent strife and warfare. So winds striving upon the sea means the same as waters of a river overflowing its banks. (Jeremiah 46:7 & 8, 47:2 & 3) In other words, what is being described here is the peoples of the Mediterranean basin rising up to war, going out of their boundaries, in order to expand their boundaries, conquering and to build a world empire.

You can get the setting of Daniel’s experiences by reading the preceding chapters of the book of Daniel. Daniel is a Hebrew captive in the kingdom of Babylon, the first kingdom represented in his vision, and the dream of the king of Babylon, described in chapter two. Daniel literally lives through Babylon being conquered by the Medes and Persians, the second kingdom represented in his vision. The animals represent no other world kingdoms than Babylon, Media Persia, Greece, and Rome; even though some theologians try to twist and distort them to be modern powers, like the bear being Russia, with the intention of releasing Rome from being the criminal that God has so vividly described her to be.

A most important feature that must not be missed and must be emphasized strongly about these empires, is that as each rose and then were conquered in their turn by a stronger empire; the conquered peoples and its religions and cultures were incorporated and absorbed into the society of the victorious empire. This is not so for the fourth and last empire. The first three were conquered by the powers of man, but it is God who will destroy the fourth. This is a very vital clue that God has given to us so that we can absolutely know that it is the fourth empire, which is Rome, that brings havoc upon the world in these end times until God Himself intervenes and destroys it. As Daniel is shown the scene he states:

What makes the 7th chapter of Daniel so awesome is that Daniel is actually shown the judgment scene of God; describing God as the Ancient of Days, His very throne, and His Son, Jesus Christ, brought unto Him, and Christ given dominion over this world which shall be a righteous everlasting dominion, that shall never pass away and never be destroyed. And God’s people will then reign with Christ. Oh the great wonders that God has in store for those who love and serve Him. Who can read the 7th chapter of Daniel and not be deeply moved?

Another point that is stressed several times about the fourth and last empire is that it is “diverse” or different from the other three that preceded it. How? Well first, as we have seen, it is not conquered by man, but is destroyed by God. But mainly, it is different because of its wanton and vicious brutality and the way it attacked and spoke against God and destroyed relentlessly His people. So utterly terrible was the fourth world empire, namely Rome, whereas the first three empires were represented by beastly animals of nature, but the fourth, there was no animal in nature to even compare it with. So it was just named, the “Beast”.

But this Beast or last world empire was also different because it was to undergo certain changes or stages during its long, over two thousand year, reign. And each stage was more intensely brutal than the one before it. The first stage, known to history as pagan Rome, was terrible enough. It was pagan Rome that was responsible for the decree to crucify Christ and who sent Christians to their deaths eaten by ravenous lions. But pagan Rome was to collapse, which is represented by the ten horns or sub-kingdoms coming out of the head of the Beast. But notice! Another little horn comes up, that is now “different” from the first ten, and uproots three of the original ten, becoming more stout or powerful than the others. This becomes the Beast’s second stage, known to history as papal Rome.

It is this second stage of Rome, the papacy, represented by the little horn, that had eyes like the eyes of a man, that speaks great words against the most High and that makes war and overcomes the saints of the most High, that God calls out very specifically for a time period — a time and times and the dividing of time — for it to exist before losing its domination. So important is this time period that God refers to it seven times in the books of Daniel and Revelation; which will be explained a little later. But it is during this time that the papacy set up the inquisition to methodically butcher and murder God’s people. It even deceived the people of the world into thinking it had the power to change God’s times and laws. (Daniel 7:25) Which laws? God’s holy, moral, and unchangeable ten commandment laws. A look at any ‘Roman’ Catholic catechism and their worship on the first day of the week instead of God’s holy seventh day gives proof enough of this.

(Note: The last statement is Seventh Day Adventist specific doctrine that no other church or denomination teaches. Nowhere in God’s Word does it say we must meet for fellowship and worship on Saturday only! On the contrary, the Bible says, “And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.”-Acts 5:42 How does the SDA church get around that Scripture??)

But God is not finished with describing this fourth and final world power to His people. And each time He gives a description, He blows it up, or magnifies its size and detail for each step as we get closer to the end of time. Like looking at a map of the world, and off to one side you’ll see a blown up size of a certain country. And then again, somewhere else, you will see a blown up size of a certain city within that country. Each is larger and more detailed than the first. God has done the same thing with His prophecies given to Daniel and then, five hundred years later, to the apostle John. We will now give our attention to the vision given by God to John, and specifically the 13th and 17th chapters of Revelation.

REVELATION 13:1-10

It is quite worthy and wonderful to notice, that the very first succinct words of John is to make it perfectly clear that the vision that God had given to him was the “revelation” of Jesus Christ — and was for the purpose to show unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass; and blessed is he that reads and hears the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Similar to Daniel, who was a captive of the Babylonian empire, John too was a prisoner, but of Rome, banished for his faith in God to the rocky and desolate island of Patmos. It is here under these stark conditions that God shows to John the terrible atrocities that Rome would later commit, but also gives John consolation by showing him Rome’s final end. As we turn to the 13th chapter of Revelation, it is here that God gives to us an enlarged picture of how Rome’s obsession for world power will shortly affect each one of us living today.

Even though it was five hundred years later, God began His vision to John just where He had left off with His vision to Daniel. Three world empires had risen and fallen during that time span, and the Messiah too had come as God had promised, but it was under the Roman rule of the fourth and last world empire — the “Beast” — that Jesus Christ had lived and been put to death. John had no need to be shown information related to the first three empires; they were past history. But it was concerning Rome’s future outrages against humanity and heaven itself that God wanted John and His people to fully understand.

Like the animals shown to Daniel, the one God shows to John in vision also comes up out of the sea. In fact, very quickly it is noticed that the “Beast” shown to John is actually a composite of all of those seen previously by Daniel — only in reverse. John observes:

As it was emphasized earlier and was specifically pointed out by God in Daniel 7:12, Rome too had incorporated into her empire the peoples, religions, and cultures of the Grecian empire, represented by the leopard; the Medes and Persian empire, represented by the feet of the bear; and the Babylonian empire, represented by the mouth of the lion; as it had gone out to conquer the peoples surrounding the Mediterranean basin and they had now become a part of her world empire. And the Dragon gave Rome its seat and great authority. Who was the Dragon? There is no question who this represents, because God tells John in plain words that it is “that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.” (Revelation 12:9) That in itself, should tell anyone what God thinks about Rome and all that it stands for.

The vision shown to John by-passes Rome’s first stage activities that were revealed to Daniel, and it immediately sweeps him into Rome’s second stage and beyond, graphically describing Rome’s terrible last ditch stand of global mass destruction. And the Beast had seven heads and ten horns — the seven heads again representing world empires, and in this instance, Rome is the sixth (Revelation 17:10 & 11) — and the ten horns being Rome’s division into the ten European nations. But as John continues to observe, he writes:

3 “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
4 And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

This is again Rome’s second stage, the papacy, or Catholic Rome with its popes; and is exactly the same as the “horn” power described to Daniel, that had eyes like the eyes of man, and that spake “great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” (Daniel 7:8, 20, 21, 25 & 26) And as it had been declared to Daniel, it was now again being declared to John, that is; that Catholic Rome’s time as Rome’s second stage was ‘limited’ to a time and times and dividing of time, or forty and two months, or 1260 years; they all being the same period of time for Catholic Rome to rule before it was to receive its “deadly wound”.

The term “time”, used in both the books of Daniel and Revelation, means a ‘year’. For example, the king of Babylon developed a mental disorder and God made it known to him that seven times (or seven years) would pass over him before he would be restored. (Daniel 4:25 & 32) However, this ‘year’ was a year of 12 months of 30 days each to total 360 days. So a ‘time’, which is singular, meant one year. ‘Times’, which is plural, is two years, and the ‘dividing of time’, is a half of a year. So you have three and one half years of 360 days each, or 42 months of 30 days each, totaling 1260 days. But these ‘days’ were prophetic days — that represented literally, 1260 years.

This ‘time period’ is a very vital clue for identifying and recognizing that the “horn power” described to Daniel is exactly the same as the “second phase” of the Beast power described to John in Revelation chapter 13:1-10, because — both cover the exact same period of time, doing the exact same vicious work. It is mentioned twice in the book of Daniel, chapters 7:25 and 12:7.

In the book of Revelation it is referred to five times, in describing those savage years when the papacy, or Church of Rome, so relentlessly persecuted God’s people. Chapter 11, verse 2, God describes it as forty and two months when the Gentiles would tread under foot the holy city, and verse 3, when His two witnesses would prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. In chapter 12, verses 6 and 14, the Woman (the symbol that represents God’s people) flees the persecution of Catholic Rome, instigated by the Dragon, or Satan, into the wilderness where she is nourished there for a thousand two hundred and threescore days or for a time, and times, and half a time. And of course, Revelation 13:5, where power is given to the Beast, which is Catholic Rome, to continue forty and two months.

Surely after such persistent repetition, one must be able to see that God is earnestly trying to stress a point. If for nothing else, it gave to His people, who were suffering so severely during those times, the desperately needed hope that it would definitely come to an end; after the declared length of time. And as God promised; so the Beast truly received a “deadly wound”. Indeed, it is that ‘wound’ inflicted on Catholic Rome by Protestantism that so infuriates her, and prods her on into an insatiated obsession to regain the domination that she once had, but lost over two hundred years ago.

Of course Rome rants and raves at anyone exposing her unspeakable past. Not that she is remorseful or ashamed of it, but she wants to keep everyone deceived until she can spring her trap. But wait! It is not time yet for rejoicing. God has also promised that Rome’s deadly wound would be “healed”! And we today, are living when marvelously, Rome’s ‘wound’ is rapidly being ‘healed’.

REVELATION CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

To get a more comprehensive understanding of the whole chapter of Revelation 13, we will now take a look at what God revealed to John in the 17th chapter. As we do, it must be recognized that, like the “little horn” power of the 7th chapter of Daniel and the “Beast” of Revelation 13:1-10, that both represented Rome, so too, does the “Beast” that the Harlot Woman is riding on in Revelation chapter 17. God purposely used different symbols to identify and reveal Rome’s many horrid characteristics. And as we begin to compare both of these Beasts of Revelation 13:1-10 and 17, we first see that each have the identical seven heads and ten horns. But even better, the angel, in chapter 17, verse 7, tells John that he would tell him the mystery of both the Woman and the Beast that carried her.

Now the symbol of a ‘Woman’ in prophecy represents “worshipers”. A ‘virtuous’ Woman represents God’s people who worship the true God in truth. A ‘harlot’ are those people who have prostituted themselves out and fornicated with false gods or a false way to worship. But this ‘Woman’, or this ‘Harlot’, is declared straight-out by God to be “Mystery, Babylon the Great — the ‘Mother’ of Harlots”. And anyone riding on an animal is guiding and controlling that animal. Which being interpreted means, that the “Beast”, that represents the world ‘political’ systems of Rome, are controlled by the ‘religious’ system of Mystery Babylon the Great — alias, the Roman Catholic Church.

But the clues that show both “Beasts” of Revelation 13:1-10 and 17 are representing the same power, Rome, are found when you compare certain key descriptions given in each of the chapters. Chapter 17:8-11 reads as follows:

8 “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. the seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.”

Three times God emphasizes in the above chapter 17, that this Beast “was”, and “is not”, and “yet is”. This is exactly the same, but another way of saying, what God had said about the Beast of chapter 13:1-10, that is — for forty and two months power was to be given to it to continue. This is the “was” period of chapter 17. After which, it was to receive a ‘deadly wound’, that would not kill it, but would take away Rome’s atrocious religious power and authority to dominate the world. This is the “is not” period of chapter 17. But the wound would also be ‘healed’ or its power restored. This is the “yet is” period of chapter 17. Actually, upon closer examination of these Beasts shown in chapters 13:1-10 and 17, we see that in reality they are exactly the same Beast, but each are shown from different perspectives.

The Beast of chapter 17 is said after its “is not” period, “shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition”, which literally means, once its power is restored, its evil work will be so terrible, (referring to the original Greek word ‘abussos’, translated bottomless pit), meaning that its evilness will be coming from the lower regions of the abode of demons; which fits it for going into perdition, which means utter destruction. And both Beasts, once their power is restored to them in its terribleness, in chapter 17:8 it says: “and they that dwell on the earth shall “wonder”, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world.” The key word is ‘wonder’, or marvel. Chapter 13:3 says: “and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world “wondered” after the beast.” And verse 8: “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

As we come to verses 9, 10, and 11 of Revelation 17, God gives us striking evidence revealing who these Beasts represent that are described in chapters 13:1-10 and 17. But more than that, God reveals another power yet! First, verse 9 states: “And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.” And verse 10: “And there are seven kings:” — (or kingdoms) In other words, the seven heads represent on these two Beasts, the historical world kingdoms; and the ‘body’ of the beasts that existed was controlled by that Woman, or Babylon Mystery Religion, that sat controlling each head as it passed from one “head”, or world kingdom, to the next. But even better than the Woman sitting and controlling the seven heads, she also, as the Beast of the sixth and seventh heads, sits on seven mountains — of which the city of Rome, sitting on seven hills, is world famous.

Back to verse 10: “And there are seven kings: — (or kingdoms) five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.” So John is being told that there will be seven world kingdoms, and regardless of what the names of the first five are, during John’s time, they were past history and had already fallen. But —and this is a most important clue — the angel says, and “one is”! So after five heads or kingdoms have fallen, the “one is” became the 6th head or kingdom, which was the one ruling while John was receiving the vision — which was Rome. “And the other”, or seventh head or kingdom, “is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.”

To bring this all together, we find that John is being given a vision that represents that part of Rome’s history by a “Beast” that was to continue forty and two months “that was” the sixth head of this Beast. That sixth head was to receive a ‘deadly wound’ and became “is not”. After its wound is ‘healed’ and its power is restored and the Roman Empire is revived, it then becomes the seventh head and “yet is”. The world as yet today, has not experienced the ‘seventh head’ of this Beast. We are still living in the ‘healing’ time. However, the launching of the so called New World Order, come year 2001, will also be the same as establishing the ‘seventh head’. And when it comes, much to Rome’s disappointment, God says, it will only “continue a short space”.

But it is the 11th verse that is the most astounding; because it ushers in another head that is not seen among the heads of the Beast, that becomes an eighth. It reads: “And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.” What is this verse saying? What power is this eighth head?? There are only two world powers that are declared by God in the whole book of Revelation that go into ‘perdition’; which is the same as the utter destruction of the “lake of fire”. And they are the “Beast” and the “False Prophet”. (Revelation 19:20 and 20:10) Its importance bears worth repeating. No other man-made world power is cast by God into perdition of the lake of fire, except the Beast and False Prophet. That being the case, then the ‘False Prophet’ is also the ‘eighth head’.

Much confusion has been intentionally generated around the False Prophet to throw people off track. One popular false claim is that the False Prophet is some man that will appear in the end times. Others teach that it will be Satan himself impersonating Christ who will perform end time miracles. However, with a little study, we find that God quite clearly identifies the False Prophet as the one “that wrought miracles before the “Beast”, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshiped his image”. (Revelation 19:20) Now that describes only one power that does those things, and that is found in the last half of Revelation 13, verses 11-18. And this is ‘another’ beast, or world political power — not some man or Satan impersonation.

We have identified the “Beast”, indisputably, to be Rome. Whether it was the fourth and last “Beast”, along with its ‘little horn’ power of Daniel 7, or the “Beast” of Revelation 13:1-10, or the “Beast” that carried the Woman of Revelation 17 — the “Beast”, expressed in the prophetic Scriptural term, means only one thing — Rome. And concerning us living today, it means specifically “Catholic Rome”! Anyone studying the incredible and awesome details that God has so graciously given to us to warn us of the “Beast”, and then denies that it is Rome, is deliberately ignorant.

REVELATION 13: 11-18

However, we have one last beast to identify. Not “the Beast”, but another beast. This is the ‘second’ beast described in Revelation 13:11-18. It is also called the False Prophet. Why? Because of its vigorous and deceptive work to revive and give life to the first “Beast”, namely Catholic Rome; even compelling the world to worship according to Catholic Rome. In fact, it works so closely with “the Beast” that God says it “exerciseth all the power of the first “Beast” before him”; so closely that, “even he is the eighth, (head) and is of the seven.” In essence, the source of power of the second beast, or False Prophet, literally comes from Catholic Rome. The ‘False Prophet’ then becomes Rome’s promotional agent, to work and stir up the whole world, whipping it into a frenzy, even to making fire come down from heaven to persuade, deceive, and compel the world to worship according to Catholic Rome.

It is utterly amazing how God could know and predict two millenniums ago, so vividly what is about to occur in our own day. But what is very disturbing, is how prophetic descriptions of this ‘second’ beast False Prophet points unquestionably to the United States of America. And how its work also fits the Occultic agenda for America. It brings to mind, a very startling statement, that we quoted earlier in the book, made by the 33 Degree Freemason, Manly P. Hall. He is known to be one of the most prolific writers in the world about secrets of the Masonic Lodge and is no doubt one of the key Masonic writers of all time. After his death, 7 August 1990, The Scottish Rite Journal, the official journal of the Scottish Rite 33rd Degree Council, called him the “Illustrious Manly P. Hall” and said that he was “often called Masonry’s Greatest Philosopher.” In his book titled, The Secret Teachings of all Ages, 1977, page XCI, he wrote:

As our study of the American Revolution has revealed, there was only one ‘august’ body in Europe determined to sever the American English colonies from England in order to establish America for a particular purpose — and that was the Jesuits. And as for what the United States government was dedicated for from the day of its inception, it is boldly declared to us through the symbolism of the pyramid, capstone; and the all seeing eye with its caption, Novus Ordo Seclorum, or New World Order; that you see on the back of every American one dollar bill, which is the reverse of the American Great Seal. The designers of these symbols don’t exactly want to tell us the evil work of this New World Order. But they don’t have to. God already has! And we will allow Him and His Word, the Bible (they hate that book) to give us some clues to who this ‘second’ beast False Prophet power is.

One unique feature about the ‘second’ beast of Revelation 13, that identifies and sets it apart from all other world powers, is the manner in which it rose to power. Scripture says that it came up out of the earth. All other world powers before it came up out of the sea, or waters; meaning they rose to power midst great turbulence, warfare, and conquest of great populations. Coming up out of the earth, logically by contrast, would mean the very opposite. That it very quietly, and gently, even lamb- like, just occupied the land. But don’t let that gentle lamb-like demeanor fool you, for God says, it will also speak like a “Dragon”. However, there is another feature that identifies it, in that John saw it rising to power right after he was shown the “Beast”, or Catholic Rome, receiving its ‘deadly wound’. There is only one nation that fits these two descriptions — of rising to power without overthrowing another, and the chronology of doing it just when Rome was losing its authority — and that is the United States of America.

Most of the descriptions that God has given us related to the activities of this ‘second’ beast of Revelation 13, are still yet in the future. But as they begin to unfold immediately after year 2001, we will then know beyond doubt the unfathomable wisdom of our mighty God. In effect, it will cast God’s people into an unswerving allegiance unto Him and His undeniable truths.

There is still another feature about the ‘second’ beast of Revelation 13 that makes it quite unique and sets it apart from all other powers of the world. John saw that it was capable of making fire come down from heaven on the earth. To John, that seemed then as a miracle. But for us today, there can be only one explanation for this phenomenon. And that is a nuclear explosion. It was America that invented the nuclear bomb and America only that used it for destruction. No other nation has. And if we understand the word miracles, as being plural, to mean more than once, and considering the utter destruction that the book of Revelation describes is yet to come, then America will again use nuclear explosions, and a number of times, sometime yet in the future. As we see America assuming today the role to be the world’s super-cop, this is a good indication of where her role is headed for the future.

This chapter was titled Two Occult Powers United For Final World Control to emphasize the closeness of partnership between Catholic Rome and the United States of America in the near future. But from America’s very inception it was secretly a Roman Catholic offspring. And although the role that Rome has planned for America’s future has also been concealed, the graphic picture that God has painted for us in Revelation 13:11- 18 erases all secrets. Indeed, this is Rome’s “Grand Design” fully exposed! Certainly there can be no excuse for ignorance. But so that you can grasp the full impact of what God has revealed to us, we will quote Revelation 13:11-18 — not using the pronouns given, but the actual names of the powers they represent.

There is one item that needs to be made clear. In the expression ‘image to the beast’, the word “image” is a poor translation in this case of the original Greek word ‘eikon’. The application here is not some stone or metal statue, as many are led to believe. But as Michael Jr. is the spitting image of his father — the word image here also means “likeness”. So wherever the word ‘image’ occurs, we will use the word ‘likeness’ for a clearer understanding. Revelation 13:11-18 reads as follows:

11 “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And America exerciseth all the power of Catholic Rome before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship Catholic Rome, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And America doth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which America had power to do in the sight of Catholic Rome; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make a likeness to Catholic Rome, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And America had power to give life unto the likeness of Catholic Rome, that the likeness of Catholic Rome should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the likeness of Catholic Rome should be killed.
16 And America causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of Catholic Rome, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of Catholic Rome: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

A COUNTERFEIT DAY OF REST

How much more explicit can one get? These horrific events may be yet in the future, but the omniscient God has called the scenes just as He has seen them, so make no mistake, they will take place! And while the fury of Rome’s Grand Design is wondrously raging throughout the world, one cardinal issue will be brought to the forefront. Rome will rally the world to honor Babylon Mystery Religion’s most sacred institution of the Sun by demanding a universal “Sunday” law. And Protestants will lock-step with Rome as they both herald the benefits of keeping that day holy. But in spite of what the Scriptures clearly teach, Protestants have long perverted, manipulated, and wiggled around the Scriptures to stubbornly and tenaciously cling to Rome’s counterfeit day of worship — Sunday. And it will be their own undoing, as Rome herds them straight into her O.K. corral.

Speaking out for their own invention, who better than Rome herself, could declare that Scripture does not sanction the holiness of Sunday. One of the highest officials in the Roman Catholic Church, James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, the city where Catholicism first received its charter for the United States, wrote in his book, “The Faith of Our Fathers”, originally published in 1876, pages 72 and 73, the following remarkable statement:

Note: James Cardinal Gibbons was obviously ignorant of the Scriptures. Meeting for fellowship on the first day of the week, Sunday, was a tradition established from the time of the Apostles and the early Church.

Acts 20:7  And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.

1 Corinthians 16:2  Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT

Once Catholic Rome received its ‘deadly wound’, it then became imperative that she worked secretly behind front organizations and movements in order to set the stage for recovering her lost domination. She is doing this today marvelously, and on a grand scale. For while Rome is quietly warning and preparing her own membership for the impending global bloodbath, at the very same time, yet quite unseen, she is preparing the world, and working out her plans boldly through another very large segment of humanity. It is called the New Age Movement. And like European Freemasons that were told they were being directed by “Unknown Superiors” — so too are the leaders of New Agers under the direct supervision of their “Hidden Masters” or mysterious spiritual guides. Is this a coincidence, or can we see again the hand of the Jesuits?

As a brief history of the New Age Movement, we find that it has become today such a vast hodgepodge, complex, worldwide, networking of literally tens of thousands of cooperating organizations that it boggles the mind. However, it received its modest start in New York, 1875, with the founding of the Theosophical Society by Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. But what New Age literature never tells you, is that Helena Blavatsky was a front, or instrument, for the Illuminati Freemasonry, who was initiated into the Cabonari by Mazzini in 1856. Blavatsky’s successor, Annie Besant went on to found a Co-Mason lodge for women, and by 1924 had no less than 442 lodges. On 19 February 1922, an alliance between the Grand Orient and Co-Masonry was celebrated at the Grand Temple of the Droit Humain in Paris. From France, Blavatsky was sent to New York, where in 1875 she founded the Theosophical Society. Among some of the members were high dignitaries of American Masonry such as William Q. Judge, Charles Sothern, Thomas Edison and Albert Pike, Grand Master of the Scottish Rite for the Southern Jurisdiction U.S.A.. Albert Pike, if you remember, was a Luciferian!

After Helena Blavatsky died, 8 May 1891, the organization continued to prosper under the direction of her two successors. The first was Annie Besant and then the torch went to Alice Ann Bailey. Alice Bailey’s work was immense. She organized the Arcane School, the New Group of World Servers, Triangles, World Goodwill, and assisted with a host of other foundational activities to get the “New Age” off and running. In 1922 the Lucifer Publishing Company was established to help disseminate her works. The name was quickly changed, and is today called Lucis Publishing Company, 120 Wall Street, 24th floor, New York, New York 10005, should you care to write or visit. It is affiliated with the United Nations, which in turn, is affiliated with the Wainwright House, 260 Stuyvesant Avenue, Rye, New York 10580.”

Both the United Nations building and the Wainwright House have meditation rooms. The United Nations building meditation room is shaped like a pyramid laid on its side without a capstone. At the back of the room where the capstone should be, is an eye catching occult mural. In the center of the room stands a four foot high Swedish lodestone altar. The Wainwright House meditation room also has an altar; with a placard stating that it originally came from and belonged to the United Nations building before it received its new Swedish altar.

The purpose of the Wainwright House is an educational program and conference center that provides seminars, conferences and ongoing core programs in the fields of health, psychology, business leadership, global issues, spirituality and the arts. The public is invited to join and be a member. It is in essence, an educational center to introduce the public to New Age theology and doctrines. Here you may learn how to develop your psychic ability, a course in miracles, Hatha Yoga, a seminar on Buddhism, meditation, reincarnation and past-life recall, and the Spirit of the Earth responses to the environmental crisis.

Take note: In 1991 the Wainwright House featured a lecture series of Jesuit Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. Jesuit Teilhard de Chardin’s theology is well taught there, and at least five faculty members that year belonged to the American Teilhard Association. Also in that year, they listed a faculty of one hundred and one members. Of that number, six were either professors, graduates or associated with the Jesuit Fordham University of New York, and another six were graduates or professors of other Catholic universities. The Catholic Church is well represented at the Wainwright House. Another prominent faculty member was the renown psychic, Juliet Hollister, who founded the Temple of Understanding.”

As you consider the overview of the New Age Movement, you quickly come to recognize that it would have been utterly impossible for one or three women to found and expand such a movement as the New Age, unless it had some serious backing from the power elite of the world. It did! The Roman Catholic Church through the highest officials of Illuminated Freemasonry — where behind that, you find the Jesuits. Some of the names of New Age leaders today, are those of some of the most wealthiest and powerful people of the world. But just as impressive, the New Age Movement has captured an incredibly huge audience; a group of people totally separate from the Church of Rome, who are seeking an occult, psyche, or paranormal experience, whose numbers even exceed the Catholic Church membership. In a very informative and well documented book, “Mystery Mark of the New Age”, written by Texe Marrs, page 157, he states:

What Rome has been doing unnoticed, right under our very noses, is to bring the whole world to a crisis crossroads, and it is being done from two separate fronts. From one, through the counterfeit Virgin Mary prophecy, Rome is telling her membership to expect worldwide devastation because Russia was not consecrated to Mary. The other, is the New Age Movement. Through this medium, Rome has prepared the rest of the world’s inhabitants for global bloodletting by way of the Jesuits, via Illuminati — Luciferian — Freemasonry, through their well selected New Age powerful world leaders who are clamoring for a ‘population reduction’ from one and a half to two and a half “billion” people in order to preserve ‘Mother Earth’. But in New Age theology, the reduction of the world’s population of up to two and one-half billion people takes on a very sinister twist. And each time you hear a New Age leader calling for this massive earth purging, remember — they are vocalizing the mind of Rome!

In New Age theology, one of its doctrines is that for the last two thousand years, the earth has passed through, what is termed, the age of Pisces. At year 2001, we will then enter the “new age” of Aquarius. Thus the name ‘New Age’ Movement. New Agers are taught that upon entering the ‘new age’, their messiah, who they call Lord Maitreya, will appear and implement globally a whole new system — politically, economically, and religiously. It is exactly the same as the Illuminati’s New World Order scheme, except the New Age version allows Rome to express her Grand Design in a little more elaborate detail.

One prominent feature of New Age theology, that reflects the true sentiments of Rome, is that upon entering the “New Age” the whole world will go through a ‘Planetary Initiation’. And if for the sake of Mother Earth and the “Fetus” of New Humanity, World Healing Meditation does not produce the desired effect — then humanity must learn to eliminate its waste materials and poisons and give the Fetus proper nourishment or the life of both the Child and Mother will be endangered.” To put it in plain words, all who dissent the coming New Age, and the agenda it will be pushing, will be marked for extinction. Bloodshed, like a cleansing laxative, will bring a purging and healing to Mother Earth.” Actually, killing will become an act of patriotism — remember the French Revolution — even two and one-half billion people worth. And Christian fundamentalists will be a very special target! But since when did Rome ever have a conscience about killing?

YEAR 2000 ROME’S TARGET DATE

Christians, for years have pondered over the end time events revealed in Scripture that were to precede the second coming of Jesus Christ. The big question was always “when” — it would all begin? While the position of this book believes it is quite unwise to set dates, yet our Lord in Scripture repeatedly has admonished His people to “watch” — and pray. And today, for those who are watching and have discernment, Rome is almost bending over backwards to tell us ‘when’. Also Rome, before any great performance, always likes to set the stage with an extensive propaganda blitz to prepare the public’s mind. Before the French Revolution, it was the philosophers Voltaire, Diderot, Condorcet, Rousseau, etc.. Today too, as year 2000 unfolds, the church of Rome has much on her propaganda agenda.

To begin, according to Catholic news, Pope John Paul II will travel to Jerusalem in March, 2000. In Jerusalem, the Pope will go on international TV, calling for reconciliation and unity among the world’s three major religious faiths: Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Year 2000 is also to be designated the ‘Age of Mary’, and is to become a crusader year termed, the “Consecration in 2000 Campaign”, for the consecration of Russia to the Virgin Mary. Of special note, the date October 2000 to commemorate the Virgin Mary’s apparition at Fatima, falls on Friday the 13th, which is highly significant because it was Friday the 13th, October, that the Knights Templar Order were first arrested. Will Rome cause the Virgin Mary to appear to the world at this date as a catastrophic event, and then declare her as Co- Redeemer with our Lord Jesus Christ? And will this then prompt the consecration of Russia to the Virgin Mary in preparation for the celebration of the capping of the Great Pyramid with a capstone New Year’s Eve, 31 December 2000, that will usher in the Triumph of Mary and the New World Order? Truly, the people of God will be soberly “watching”.

Over thirty years ago, a number one hit song, “The Dawning of the Age of Aquarius”, wafted sensuously over the media’s air waves. Even today, the catchy phrases linger in the brains of many who hummed it then; not having the slightest clue of what it was all about. Minds were being subtly conditioned — Rome’s New Age style! But when is the ‘dawning’ of the age of Aquarius? When the world enters the ‘real’ new millennium the 1st of January 2001, of course. And the credibility of Rome’s complete program and occult agenda, alias, her “New Age” Movement concept, rests fully upon that simple fact. And if you want the entire picture laid out for you of what is planned for all of us immediately after year 2001, including their time frame to accomplish their goal, then you are encouraged to research the several books that are listed in the footnotes.” For those who are under the illusion that they will be raptured out or that this reign of terror will pass over quickly, you are in for a startling disappointment.

In addition to the New Age theology that teaches that the age of Aquarius begins with the new millennium, the Vatican itself, through its Jesuit spokesman, Malachi Martin, is telling us plainly, that something extraordinary will happen to catapult, introduce and install the New World Order system in our midst by the end of this final decade of the second millennium. And for two hundred years now, we have been exposed to the fact that Rome has a work that is unfinished; represented by the uncompleted pyramid on America’s Great Seal. Is it just a coincidence that now, after all those years, we hear talk about setting the capstone on the Great Pyramid in Egypt — that would symbolize Rome’s Great Work ‘completed’? It is certainly something worthy to ponder on.

Very soon now, it will no longer be a mystery of ‘when’ these events will take place; they will have become a terrible reality. Where then, will each of us stand on these issues, when the onslaught actually begins? Quickly it will be seen that the New Ager’s counterfeit messiah, Lord Maitreya, is also the same person as the Pontifex Maximus pope of Rome, who then will take the reins of the New World Order. The deceptions will mesh wonderfully together, as the “World Harmonic Convergence” accomplishes new values for mankind in the cooperation, collaboration and unification on behalf of the “Spirit of the Earth.” For those of you who read this book, be patient, it won’t be long and you will know that it revealed to you the truth.

Also, it is only a matter of time when Pope John Paul I, old and tired, will succumb to his great age, and his mantle will then go to a more younger and aggressive pope. By him, a work will now be accomplished, known as the “Era of Reseeding” when major population areas will be ‘thinned out’ and the human population will be resettled. Finally, will come the “Era of the New Harmony” and the “Crystal Kingdom” of the earth will be set up. This is the glorious version of Rome’s final victory and total conquest of humanity. But there is one last crowning act that is needed to make this masterpiece of deception complete.

FALSE MESSIAH OCCUPIES JERUSALEM

The counterfeit surpassing all other counterfeits, Rome has now fulfilled its grandest dreams. The entire world lays in shambles at its feet. “Order out of Chaos”, was its beloved motto. Now the ‘great pretender’, the Pontifex Maximus pope declares himself to be God over all the earth! Not content with just being ruler of all the earth — but “is worshiped; so that he as God sitting in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” Only a Luciferic mind could think like that.

After usurping the very exalted position of grandeur, magnificence, majesty and sovereignty of God Himself — what other place would he choose to locate his Crystal Kingdom headquarters — other than where the God of creation has placed His own Holy name — Jerusalem; where else? Rome has always had its covetous eye set on Jerusalem. The Crusaders were sent there to conquer it, after which, the Knights Templar were named after its temple. And now the Pontifex Maximus pope, dripping in blood of the world’s innocents, claims this city as his too; to be the headquarters for ruling his New World Order.

Does all of this sound like some grotesque fairy tale or the terror of some fearsome nightmare? Oh my friend, how I wish that could really be the case; that we could actually wake up and none of this would really be true, and I could be called a liar. What I wouldn’t give, if I could make that be so. But for all the sadness and horror it brings, it must be acknowledged that itis the truth. Not because man says so, but because God’s Word has declared it. There is only one way to face the onslaught that is just ahead. We must fully trust our life into the hands of God, and then resolve in our minds that we are going to be killed; forgetting entirely the thought that we might be fortunate enough to escape. That is how thoroughly God’s people are going to be rooted out. Know for sure in your own mind — they can kill your body ever so dead, but they can never take your life — if it is in Christ Jesus. That belongs to God alone.

Very soon, God’s people are going to be confronted with the exact same experience as our Lord and Saviour. To know and look straight into the face of death — and yes, by the very same executioner — Rome. But our Lord loved you, dear reader, and me, and all, that He gave up His own life for us. We must now respond to that love and be resolved to die also for Him, standing firm for His truth, as He died for us. And Rome can not kill us so dead, that our mighty God can not raise us back up to life. Not the miserable life we know now, but incorruptible life for eternity. A quick calculation will tell you, that if one third of the earth’s population, or nearly two billion people, are going to be slaughtered, only a minuscule fraction of that amount are fundamentalist Christians. That means a huge amount of people are going to die that are not Christians. Sadly, beyond any comprehension, they will have died for a very lost cause.

From all the horror, misery, and bloodshed, people universally, will become utterly paralyzed from sheer shock. And to the overwhelming majority of them, sadly, this life is their only world, as they watch it being ripped apart; everywhere, nothing but chaos and devastation. They are terrified. They just do not understand! But there are a people that do understand; as they watch now with solemn awe, events occurring that they had known about and anticipated for many many years. This is what gives to God’s people “hope”. They know that God does not lie. God has given to His people promises, predictions, and prophecies that have never ever failed. That, dear friend, is wonderful, unselfish, and abiding love! — that builds unswerving trust. And no other promise is so deeply embedded into their hearts, than the one given that Christ will soon return and redeem His people out of this wretched world. It buoys their spirits, as it assures them precious ‘hope’.

Five hundred years before Jesus Christ walked the earth, God revealed to His people that Rome’s false messiah, in the very end times, would “plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain.” In other words, Jerusalem. (Daniel 11:45) What an incredible God we have! But notice how God describes it. He calls Rome setting up its New World Order headquarters in Jerusalem the “abomination that maketh desolate.” In fact, Christ Himself prophesied that Rome would invade Jerusalem soon after His departure from earth, which it did in A.D. 70.5 And this first invasion was to become a “type” for when it would occur again, with vengeance, in the very end time.

SIGNAL FOR JESUS CHRIST TO RETURN

But if nothing else about this book makes an impression on the reader’s mind, it would be well to never forget this one fact. The event when Rome sets up the false messiah pope in the city of Jerusalem, the city where God chose to place His own Holy name forever, will be the electrifying “signal” that shortly after 3 1/2 years, Jesus Christ will return to this earth the second time in flaming glory. At that time, (Daniel 11:45) “he (Rome and its pope) shall come to his end, and none shall help him.” It is immediately after that event, that Daniel, chapter 12:1 and 2, goes on to say:

1 “And at that time shall Michael (another name for the Son of God, Jesus Christ) stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.”
*   *   *

3 “Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
4 He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
5 Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself.” (Psalms 50:3-6)

14 “And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?” (Revelation 6:14- 17)

7 “And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power.” (2nd Thessalonians 1:7-9)

9 “And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.” (Isaiah 25:9)

What astonishing promises. What a grand climax! Can there be even a hint of a comparison to the phony bogus messiah, a mere detestable man, sitting in Jerusalem, compelling the world to worship him, because he claims to be God? What will this spurious sham do when the sovereign God of the universe makes His grand appearance in all His awesome splendor to claim what is indisputably His? There is no doubt what he will do. He will tuck his tail and hide, and be the first to run, with all his cronies quickly following, to the nearest underground bunker he can find. Very quickly, all will see how fragile this piece of clay impostor really is. For he will die on that day, just like all the others, who have rejected the great salvation of our God. This is that great and terrible Day of the Lord, when He said He would come and shake terribly the whole earth.

My dear friend, there is only one way of escape from what the whole world is about to be plunged into. And that is by accepting the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who has paid the price for all of our sins. He surely did not have to die for you or me; but He did. And He did it for only one reason — because He loved us. It’s just that simple.

Survey the world today and ask yourself, what really is behind all the misery that you see? The murders, the thefts, the rapes, the broken homes and broken hearts? You know the answer. God’s appeal to us is not for dictating or ruling over us, but for the same reason you would forbid your own child to do certain things. It is out of love, knowing that the end result could bring harmful consequences. The miseries you see today are the lessor results of only the growing plant. Out of love, God has given us ten rules to live by that we might live without fear and in peace. Disobey those rules long enough, then they will grow and mature into ripened fruit — that the whole world is now about to witness.

You see my friend, you still have time yet you know. You know what I mean — for what you have been putting off now for quite some time. God is calling out a people. Don’t you feel Him gently tugging at your heart strings? Life is so fragile, you know, and after that, there is no reincarnation, no second chance; the time is right now, while alive, so I wouldn’t wait too long. To God: it makes no difference how bad your past life has been. You could have been the worst of the worst, but if you are now dead serious, all God requests of you is that you confess your sins to Him, and they will be forgiven — just like that! Isn’t that love? No, I mean — isn’t that astonishing Love? How do you know that God will forgive you? Because He ‘said’ He would. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9) And God does not break a promise.

Won’t you right now then, give your life to Christ? Tomorrow may be too late. Right now, seek a moment of quietness, and ask Him to forgive you of your sins. Tell Christ that you want to be led by His Holy Spirit; that you want to put away your past life, and live now a life that will glorify His righteousness. That you want to be in His kingdom and for Him not to pass you by. Ponder the thought: “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation?” Scriptures teach (Romans 8:14, 16-18) that:

14 “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”

You must not be deceived by the grand delusion that is about to sweep the world. God is calling out a people to be Elijahs for the end time. A people that will not fear for their lives in exposing the man of sin. How else will many ever know and come to the knowledge of the truth, unless the people of God boldly give a clarion call, denouncing the great lie? May the reader of this book not reject that call, but join forces with God’s people now in their work and their sufferings; and also their eternal reward. May God’s richest blessings be granted to you for heavenly discernment.
