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.
12And
he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and
causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first
beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13And
he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven
on the earth in the sight of men,
14And
deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the
means of those
miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying
to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to
the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.”
(Revelation 13:11-14)
I
was reading about the coming One World Government that is in the
planning stages right now through the new U.N. Charter of Agenda 21
and Sustainable Development and wondered to my self, “How will the
world fall sway to the likes of the Anti-Christ and how will it
start?” I've spoken of this before, but the Lord laid it on my
heart to sound the warning again.
There
are three foundations that must be in place for the Anti-Christ to
rise.
- there will have to be a one world economy. No borders, and all sovereignty of any nation will be submissive to the economy of the coming cashless society.
- There will have to be something present that will steer all the nations to one leader that will come, and the man, called the “false prophet” will be the mouthpiece that brings all nations under one “king” or dictator and he will use “religion” as the beginning of the next foundation stone, by using a One World Religion to unite them.
- Total control of all functions of government over the entire world that combines religion, government, and the economy into one Satanic effort to rule the world through sinful men.
Those
are the foundation stones that will bring about the rise of the
Anti-Christ, but how do we get from here to there? Let us explore the
wide road that will lead to the destruction of this world we call
earth. According to Bible prophecy, these three foundations must be
in place before the Anti-Christ will rise to power.
THE
RISE OF ISLAM
Back
in 1979, when Iran first came upon the scene by capturing American
hostages and the Mullahs of Iran formed a theocracy by overthrowing
the Shah of Iran, they created what many believed were nothing but a
bunch of Persian and Arab nations that embraced a 1400 year old
primitive “religion” that was not a threat to any Western nation
that held onto democratic principles of “life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness”. Without making a formal declaration, Islam
had declared war on the rest of the world they called “infidels”
and had their target placed on the Great Satan (America) and the
little Satan (Israel). For the last 40 years, Islam has grown
worldwide as the 2nd largest
“religion” on earth by the sword, or by blinding those who look
for something to fill that empty void inside of their own lives and
have looked to Islam, as they have rejected Christianity because
mainly, they see idolatry and hypocrisy within it's ranks. The formal
church within Christiandom as fallen into “luke warm” apostasy,
paganism and it has done nothing but send the young and
impressionable likes of this last generation into its evil clutches.
Islam now is the fastest growing “religion” in America.
As
the opening title suggest, there has been a strong push to unite the
world under one banner. Such an effort has seen one man visiting
Muslim mosques and praying along with the Imam of the mosque to a
“god” they both claim to be the same God we serve, Jehovah,
Yahweh, or God Almighty. He has been trying to convince the religions
of the world, found mainly in Christianity to unite and embrace one
another in a show of unity. The cry is “come back to the mother
church”. Without me saying a word, you should now know who I am
referring to.
The
present pope, namely pope Francis has been on a world-wide swing to
unite all faiths into one religion and makes pilgramages to Muslim
countries to convince those of this pagan religion to come together
as “brothers” in a blend of both Christianity and Islam, coining
the name Chrislam.
This
pope by his actions, tries to convince with soft words and logic that
both of the two major religions of the world serve the same God.
Allah is god, Jehovah is God, and they are one and and the same! But
let us compare these two deities that billions of people worship .
Are they the same? (one true, one is false) Guess which is which?
Jehovah,
(Yahweh) is a God of grace and mercy. The Bible says that God is
Love!
“And
we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is
love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.”
(1st John
4:16)
The
Holy Attributes of the true God of the Bible is a God without sin,
perfect, Holy, omnipresent, omniscient, all knowing, Creator of the
Universe who gave His only Begotten Son as a ransom for the sins of
mankind.
“For
God so loved the world, that He gave His only Begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting
life.” (John 3:16)
“Be
ye holy, for I am Holy” (1st Peter
1:16)
Yet,
the Pope would have us believe that this “allah” is the same Holy
Being we read in our bible. What are the attributes of “allah”?
- Allah was one of many “gods” worshiped in pagan Arabia at the time of Mohammed. Mohammed got rid of all gods, but one which was worshiped as the moon goddess. By attributes, this god has feminine characteristics, but was changed to a male that made women inferior.
- Allah is a “god” of war. To demand “jihad” or holy war to convert all other people of other religions to Islam by the sword. He demands that you sacrifice yourself in acts of murder and martyrdom to promote the “religion” and to die in his service is to be rewarded paradise where you will be waited upon by 77 virgins to fulfill you every wish of the physical including your sexual needs.
- This allah, denies he has a son, as his “prophet” Mohammed said that allah has no son, so they deny the deity of Jesus Christ and reduce Him to a prophet or a teacher.
- Islam claims that this “allah” has 99 different attributes that fly in the face of the God of the Bible and His Ten Commandments for righteous living.
Just
on these few attributes, one can see that there is a vast difference
between a God of love, and a god of war and murder. But note that the
“false prophet” will speak as a dragon although giving the false
impression of being righteous and a leader of purity and holiness as
of a lamb.
1)
He will claim authority over pure Christianity. The
references to 'the lamb' are pretty much self-explanatory. It is a
reference to something 'like' Christianity, but a counterfeit. . . .
"he spake as a dragon." (Revelation
13:11)
- It will share political power with the first beast. "And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him."
3) Participation will be mandatory. "cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed." (Revelation 13:15)The method employed by the false prophet's religious system as the penalty for refusing conversion is decapitation.
"and I
saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus,
and for the word of God, and which had not worshiped the beast."
(Revelation
20:4)
For
more than a 1000 years, the Catholic church has used various means to
destroy opposition to its rule of the earth. It has been a blend of
political and religious theological ideas, but that is where the
similarities end. I believe the Catholic church will rise again, and
impose another Grand Inquisition to dwarf that of the Dark Ages of
Europe.
Yet,
there is another religion that fits John description of death by
beheading like a glove. Islam claims to be the third and final
revelation from God that give it authority over Christians and Jews.
Islam is not just a religion, but a political system that fulfills
the first two points above of the rise of a One World Religion better
than the Vatican can alone. Through Sharia law, Islam is a religion
of the sword, that has used decapitation as the supreme penalty for
not submitting to their hateful religion. Even the name Islam is
interpreted as “submission” and on its use of Sharia law fulfills
point three above. So fulfilling point 3 is a matter of existing
religious doctrine -- not a new doctrine forced upon an existing
system by a mad pope.
BUT
WHERE WILL THE ANTI-CHRIST COME FROM?
I
have explored many avenues that this “man of sin” could come
from, but I am beginning to believe that it is more likely that the
man is either a closet Muslim, or a moderate Muslim that will come
upon the scene and promoted by none other than the false prophet who
will blend all religions, Islam and Christianity into one religion,
called Chrislam. But in the middle of the coming Tribulation, the
Anti-Christ will eventually reject all forms of religion based, save
the worship of himself, and indwelt by Satan and will sit in the
Temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. Why do I say he could
possibly be Muslim?
The
prophet Daniel identifies the antichrist as being of "the people
of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the
sanctuary." (Daniel
9:26)
Hence
the interpretation that the antichrist comes to power through some
form of a revived Roman Empire that serves as a de facto global
government.
In
this generation, the countries of the old Roman Empire united under
the banner of the European Union, uniting Europe as a single empire
for the first time since the fall of Rome. They are loosely
connected, as Daniel spoke of the 10 toes of the statue that the King
of Babylon dreamed of, consisting of iron mixed with clay. (Portions
strong, and portions of it weak). So is the popular belief, but is
that entirely true, or is there more in this slight of hand the devil
doesn't want us to focus on?
There
is a point at which people live in the dark willfully as a result of
self-imposed ignorance and I think this is it. That’s sad to me.
Alas,
I lament that so many lovers of prophecy are missing the very things
they have been longing to see!
Watching
people look for the rise of the Antichrist’s kingdom in Europe
while it’s forming right now in the Middle East is the closest
we will come to watching the Jews miss the First Advent of Christ
while He was standing right before them. They, too, were looking in a
different geographic area.
As
history shows us, Titus who became Emperor Titus, destroyed the
Temple in 70 AD. Now we know that Roman soldiers burned the Temple to
the ground and any structures left standing where taken down to
reveal any gold that was present, to even the stones leading to the
Temple structure. Understand that the Roman soldiers were not
“Italian” by ethnicity, although they came from “Rome” they
were of Middle Easter descent. They were a conglomeration of many
cultures that adhered to Roman authority and law. Many within their
legions that could have been Arabs or even Persian, or some other
race that hated the Jews. Note that the Anti-Christ is called the
Assyrian?
“5 And this man(Jesus) shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.
6 And
they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of
Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the
Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within
our borders..”(Micah
5:5-6)
Jesus
will come to Israel’s aid when the Assyrian invades. So, the
question for you to consider is, has there ever been a time in
history when Jesus has led an army against Assyria to save Israel
from an invasion? No, He has not.
What
is the implication, then? Since this has never happened in history,
the implication is that when Jesus returns, He will defend Israel
against the invading Assyrian,
or the Antichrist.
Why is he called the Assyrian? Well, logic suggests that in order to
be called an Assyrian you must come from Assyria. So, where was
Assyria and what are the modern-day countries that inhabit this
geographic area? If we identify these things, we can know the
geographic location of the Antichrist’s kingdom.
The
Assyrian Empire, the second Biblical World Kingdom, encompassed
Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Jordan, Iran and Iraq, Saudi
Arabia and Egypt. Notice the glaring relationship between them
all? They are all today, Islamic.
THE
POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS FOR THE USA AND EUROPE
Note
also, that since the failed so called “Arab Spring” that the last
“president” so foolishly created has caused terrorism to have
gone rampant. For all the dictators that have fallen, that kept the
people in check, out of the chaos has risen the likes of ISIS. The
purpose and the objective of ISIS or for that matter, Islam in
general is to rule the world. But there is one problem, the Western
nations of the North American Western Hemisphere. ISIS is reported to
be on our border, and has committed acts of violence and bloodshed in
various places like San Bernadino, Orlando, Baltimore, Boston and
surely there are plans for more.
Now
comes the insanity of it all. Refugees from the failed Syrian state
of President Assad have all but infiltrated our borders with these
people who we don't know if they are members of ISIS or not. But make
no mistake, whether they are or are not terrorist among them, the
population that embrace Islam is anathema to our way of life. Only
our current POTUS understands that we must stop illegal immigration
that plans are nothing but to destroy us. And to further this
insanity, we have allowed tens of thousands of these refugees to
enter into our country and the next Democrat that could be elected
after Trump's two terms, if one be so sadly elected, plans to
increase that amount by 500%...you heard right....with all the terror
that is in the world, the Democrat idiots in Washington D.C. who
think they know what is good for us, are inviting our conquerors to
come invade our land and take over. It will be a brutal war for them
to finally take over this country and impose Sharia law as the law of
the land. That's where we are headed folks. I believe this will all
happen in the Tribulation, after the removal of God's Chosen Bride at
the rapture.
IT
IS ALL COMING TOGETHER IN OUR LIFETIME
As
began this journey, we began with the foundation stone, a religious
order that will spread world-wide. To embrace all religions by one
religious leader who the world trains their ears to listen to every
word he says. This man will promote a One World Religion with a
blending of all religions into one super religion called Chrislam.
Again, why Chrislam? Why blend the two together? Short answer: Power!
The
concept is likely to be embraced by a few non-fundamentalists on
either side of the divide, such as Universalists, Unitarians and
maybe some Buddhists. There are Hindus and Shinto faithful who are
willing to add Christianity and Islam to their belief spectrum —
rejecting that there is any single path to God.
However,
Christianity has at its very core that Jesus is the only way to
heaven — and that eternal salvation is a gift of grace, earned for
mankind by Christ’s crucifixion, shedding His blood and rising from
the grave three days later. However, Islam holds the firm view that
eternal damnation awaits those who do not earn salvation by
submitting to the requirements of the Koran, which describes
Jesus as a noteworthy prophet who didn’t really die on the cross.
Right
now it is already flourishing in places like Africa. In Nigeria, a
“preacher” Shamsuddin Saka seeks to bridge the religious divide.
It doesn’t take much to spark religious violence in the West
African nation of Nigeria. Just this past weekend, rioting erupted in
the town of Bauchi after Muslims parked their cars in front of a
church. Bauchi lies along a line between Nigeria’s mainly Muslim
north and the Christian south. Tensions in the region often spill
over into violence, but one man is trying to bridge the gap. He
preaches a liturgy that blends Christianity and Islam.
Saka
preaches that Christians and Muslims are both children of Abraham —
which is historically accurate, according to both the Bible, the
Koran and DNA studies.
Saka
was born Muslim, and, the PRI report notes: ” it was
after returning from a Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca that he was inspired
– he says instructed by God – to launch his new ministry: “That
was about 22 years ago. I was praying and I [laid] down and the Lord
told me, make peace between Christian and Muslim.”
But
from what is happening in Africa, and what is the Pope preaching to
his Catholic parishioners? it's the perfect vehicle to bring all
religions into a one world religion united and led by one man in the
religious affair of the coming One World order, the pope of Rome.
Already the pope is wooing the likes of Evangelicals Kenneth
Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, and even from reports, Rick Warren to come
home to the Catholic Church.
ANTI-CHRIST
COMES ON THE SCENE
What
unites a people, any people into a cohesive unit? Either in a
community, a state, a nation, or thinking on a grand scale, the
world? To control the people, you must have something in common, a
uniting principle. To gather all the religious orders of the world
into one, you must blend the two largest religions into one and have
a spokesman that the world will listen to. The pope is not only a
religious leader, he is a political leader that nations actually
listen to. Accomplish this and you can begin the foundation of
controlling the economy and promoting a cashless society, although
they may go hand in hand.
Now,
is Pope Francis the coming false prophet? Not sure, but I read where
his secretary who is named “Pietro”, (can you say Peter the
Roman) will be elected when Pope Francis leadership is over upon his
death, prophesied to be the last pope, the False Prophet.
If
the coming Anti-Christ is indeed an Islamic, then the spokesman of
the one world religion will promote him as a leader of the secular
world, because in word, the man will embrace this new religion,
Chrislam to his own advantage for power and control. The bible says
that they will join forces for a temporary amount of time.
This
religious personage actively promotes worship of the Beast and does
miracles in the context of religion to deceive people. A woman
in the Bible is a symbol of a church organization.
“And
the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with
gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand
full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5
“And
upon her forehead was a
name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6And
I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the
blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with
great admiration.
7And
the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee
the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which
hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8The
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.
9And
here is the
mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which
the woman sitteth.” (Revelation 17:4-8)
Who
has killed millions in the name of her religion and drank the blood
of saints? Yes, the answer: the Catholic church!!
In
Revelation 17, the Woman is controlling the Beast, bringing the
worship of the coming Anti-Christ. But even then, she and the Beast
are, in fact, antagonists competing against each other. Furthermore,
she is heavily involved in politics (influencing kings),
manufacturing, shipping, craftsmanship, and merchandising. That has
been the focus of the Catholic Church since the Middle Ages.
The
Woman indeed has a relationship with the Beast, but she is not part
of the politics, economics, or military of the Beast. She and the
Beast are separate entities, even though both are part of the overall
one world system. The Catholic Church has always been part of the
Beast, influencing it from within. Conversely, the Woman
is portrayed as an external influence, competing with, riding, and at
some point exercising control of the Beast.
WHEN
WILL THIS BE FINALLY COMPLETE
The
plans are already in the works, using the false narrative of “Climate
Change”. The U.N. has drawn up plans that the whole world will
follow ultimately. Their spokesman at this time, is the pope in Rome.
But the final draft and implementation will not be complete until the
Anti-Christ is actually revealed and I am a firm believer that we
won't even see who the man is. We may have a good idea, but to see
Chrislam flourish all over the world, the economy being controlled by
a central government, and the Anti-Christ to come to the forefront of
the poltical, secular world will not happen until the Church is
removed from this earth. We may see the signs of it coming clearer
and clearer and we MAY, I say MAY see what men will attempt to put in
place as a One World system before Christ comes for His Church, but
most all of this will happen when the Holy Spirit is removed from His
fullness found in His people who occupy the true Church of blood born
and washed Christians bought and paid for by our Lord Jesus Christ.
7For
the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now
letteth will
let,
until he be taken out of the way.
8And
then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with
the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his
coming:
10And
with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be
saved.
11And
for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should
believe a lie:
12That
they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure
in unrighteousness.” (2nd Thessalonians
2:6-12)
My
friend, you are seeing the beginning of the coming New World
order...it begins with economic and religious underpinnings that must
be in place, before the Anti-Christ can be revealed and dominates the
world. With the false prophet scheming and using false miracles to
convince the masses that a “False Christ” has indeed arrived, be
he proclaimed as the Mahdi of Islam, or deceptive adherent to any
religion, either Christian, Muslim, or Chrislam, he will worship none
of them, because he advances only his agenda and his complete control
of the world. And both aspects of each system are working feverishly
to bring it to pass.
36 “And
the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself,
and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous
things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the
indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be
done.
37Neither
shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor
regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38But
in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his
fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with
precious stones, and pleasant things.
39Thus
shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he
shall acknowledge and increase
with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall
divide the land for gain.” (Daniel 11:36-39)
I
have spoken on this subject many times, but warnings must abound as
the time grows closer to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. As Paul
warned in 2nd Thessalonians about “he will let will
let, till HE be taken out of the way”, God can send His Son at any
moment in time. I have believed it will be on a certain day of the
Feast days of the Lord in some future year, per many sermons on the
subject, but God is sovereign, and can do His own will and His plans
are perfect. Should you be so foolish to stand by and see the moral
and economic collapse of this nation, and the world around you, and
not think “it can't last this way much longer”, then you play
Russian Roulette with your very soul. Jesus could come at any moment
in time and your chance of being found washed in His blood and
forgiven your sins, this side of the Tribulation will just have
become exponentially smaller. I wouldn't take the chance for “all
the tea in China”. Your soul is that important, as it will live
forever, either in God's presence, or banished from His sight to be
tormented for all eternity. The tribulation is right at the door. But
before that happens, our Lord Jesus Christ will sound a trumpet cry:
52,
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the
trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and
we shall be changed.
53, For
this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal mustput
on immortality.
54So
when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal
shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the
saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Don't
be caught unaware. There is no excuse for denying what has been
taught as long as I've been alive and before...all have heard. Some
believed, some have rejected the free gift of salvation that is there
for the asking.
“For
he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of
salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time;
behold, now is the day of salvation.( 2nd Corinthians
6:2)
Take
that offering of the free gift of God, before your chance during the
Age of Grace comes to a final close. To receive Jesus in the coming
Tribulation, most likely will mean your death by that terrible way to
die...decapitation after unspeakable torture. I pray you will heed
the warning and the call to repentance. In Jesus Name.
8
“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth,
and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 That
if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou
shalt be saved.
10 For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.
12 For
there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same
Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
