Part#1 Mystery Babylon
We must understand that Mystery Babylon is three things not just one as
many teach. Without all three it is impossible to understand who she is.
To start off we have to look at Rev.17:18
(1st.The original literal translation of the Greek)this is not mans opinion or doctrine.)
(Re 17:18 ) “kai h gunh hn eidev estin h poliv h megalh h ecousa basileian epi twn basile
tnv gpv
Rev. 17:18 And the woman whom thou sawest is the city great, which has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.
(1.) She is the great city.
(2.) which has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.
(3.)She is all false or deceiving Religious systems with false prophets who teach spiritual fornication of all types .
Everyone of these false systems are allowed according to the law of that kingdom. [Example: When the Kingdom/Nation of Israel allowed spiritual fornication to prosper Eloheem (God) judged them and allowed Israel to be defeated and their city Jerusalem destroyed. Eloheem “God” done this because the Leaders of the Kingdom/Nation had turned from Eloheem as well and became as evil or even more so than the people.
***We must look at the reason for the destruction of Sodom ,Gomorrah, Adamah and Zeboyim to find the answer about the destruction of Mystery Babylon.The peoples within these cities were very evil but the reason for its destruction was because of their Wicked government mainly the judges that were over the city.When a Kingdoms Government is as wicked as the people themselves such as the killing of innocent blood then that Kingdom as a whole will be judged. These Kingdoms were killing innocent people, practicing in Sodomy, Homosexuality and many other innumerable sins and the Government would make laws to protect the evil and destroy the innocient. When a government begins that practice then it is time for the judgment of Eloheem “God” to come down.We can read about these cities in Gen.19 and in The Apochryphay of Jasher19. Eloheem (God) always destroys the people and/or city and/or the Kingdom that is allowing the religious fornication not the Religious systems themselves. Even though Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed the systems of their sin continued . These will go on until Eloheem (God) puts down all rebellion in Rev.20:7-15. . then all sin will be cast into the lake of fire.
Similar Destruction- Sodom/Gomorrah /Mystery Babylon and Babylon:
1. Destroyed for the same sins (Genesis 19:5; Luke 17:28-29; Rev. 18:2-5 Rev.17:5 she is the mother of harlots which she is worse than any of these kingdoms; she has all the sins of the others and more.)
2. By fire (Isaiah 13:19; Genesis 19:24;Rev.17:16; Rev. 18:8)
3. Destroyed in vengeance(Isaiah 13:5-16,19-22;Jeremiah 50:28;Rev.17:17;Rev18:1-24, 19:2)
4. Suddenly (Isaiah 13:19; Genesis 19:24; Jeremiah 51:8;Rev.17:16 ; Rev. 18:8-10,17,19)
A. Eloheem (God) allows Mystery Babylon to be destroyed by the antichrist/beast .
B. Eloheem (God) himself destroyed Sodom and Gomarrah and
C. Eloheem (God) will also destroy Babylon .This was done so that we would be able to distinguish between the two Babylon’s Rev.17 and Rev.18 .
Eloheem (God) has many times used kingdoms to fulfill his will. In the Word of Eloheem (God) the Word woman is always a real woman , a city or a relegious system allowed by that Kingdom according to its laws. The mother of the woman is the kingdom of that woman/city and the peoples within that kingdom are always destroyed for the false religions that it allows .The religious system’s themselves are never destroyed. The Word of Eloheem (God) is our guide for interpreting all prophecy and when something is always used one or two ways then we have to stay within those perimeters that it has given us.
Example: Ezekiel 23:1-10 The Word of YAHWEH (the Lord) came again unto me, saying, 2Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother: 3And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity. 4And the names of them were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters. Thus were their names; Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem Aholibah. 5And Aholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbours, 6Which were clothed with blue, captains and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses. 7Thus she committed her whoredoms with them, with all them that were the chosen men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted: with all their idols she defiled herself. 8Neither left she her whoredoms brought from Egypt: for in her youth they lay with her, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured their whoredom upon her. 9Wherefore I have delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted. 10These discovered her nakedness: they took her sons and her daughters, and slew her with the sWord ( sons and daughters are the people ) and she became famous among women; for they had executed judgment upon her.
She is not just one religious system but many. She allows all forms of religious fornication in her
Mystery Babylon
Seventeen proofs the woman/whore is a city within a kingdom with many religious systems.
- Playing the whore in symbolic language always refers to religious and idolatry
fornication ,but the fornication is allowed by the Kingdom (Rev. 17:1-4; Isaiah 23;17; Isaiah 57:3-7; Jeremiah 3:2-9; Ezekiel 16:1-63; Ezekiel 20:30-32; Ezekiel 23:7-49; Hosea 4:12-19; Nahum 3:4;Rev.2:18-20; literal fornication must also be understood in some of these).What kingdom has and allows every form of false doctrine, religion, Satan worship, witchcraft, idol worship and every other kind of worship to be allowed in it? Also kills innocent blood approx 5,000 per day abortion, allows gays to prosper even in the church, but has tried to totally take the true Eloheem (God) out of its Government?
- Her causing the many nations to commit fornication with her proves that idolatrous religious practices are being referred to, and this Kingdom allows them to be taught to these nations. What kingdom allows this?
- She is a political power for she has a kingdom that reigns/rules over "the kings of the earth." She causes the kings and inhabitants of the earth to be drunk with the wine of her fornication (Rev. 17:2,4). Her fornication here refers to religious harlotry ; which all the nations of the earth have been effected by her.
Missionaries have been sent all over the world by her teaching false doctrines which deny Messiah (Christ) and also some teach doctrines of devils such as unconditional eternal security and purgatory .
What kingdom sends out every form of false doctrines to every kingdom in the world?
· The beast which the woman rides will be the 8th kingdom the woman/whore will only have power over the 8th. kingdom for a short time. After the antichrist/beast defeats the three kings then the rest give their power to him, then he will have the power to destroy the woman/whore and will also try to destroy Israel. These ten kingdoms are made up of the many peoples inside the old Roman Empire territory (Rev17:1,3,11,15.). Since the beast itself is Symbolic of that kingdom, the woman must be a kingdom ruling the kingdoms . The true original Greek writing of this verse
(Re 17:18)
“kai h gunh hn eidev estin h poliv h megalh h ecousa basileian epi twn basile
tnv gpv
Rev. 17:18 (KJV) And the woman whom thou sawest is the city great, which has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.
This woman/whore will rule over the beast until she is destroyed by the beast.
(Rev. 17:12-17).What kingdom rules the Middle East which is were most of the 10 kingdoms will come from. Not only this but who do the people of the middle east hate just as much as Israel and who will they have to move out of the way to get to Israel.
5. The attire of the woman/great whore identifies her as a religious system or as a whore committing spiritual fornication, duping political powers by her whoredoms and idolatries (Rev. 17:4). The purple, scarlet, precious stones, pearls, and golden vessels indicate the wealth of the system (cp. Ezekiel 23:40-41). Who is the wealthiest kingdom and city that controls the wealth of the world.
16. The golden cup in her hand, full of her uncleanness, spiritual fornication and abominations by which she dupes political powers, proves her to be a kingdom with false religious power (cp. Ezekiel 23:29-31).In Rev:18 litreal Babylon will be rewarded double according to her works in the cup which she has filled .
Proving they will be both a kingdom and religious fornication will be allowed within the kingdom by the golden cup in her hand. Rev.18 is talking about Babylon which is a kingdom. and the fornication that it has allowed and will allow in the future .The city will be destroyed at that time but the religious fornication of that kingdom will continue and will not be destroyed until latter. What kingdom allows all the fornication’s of Babylon and exceeds her in wickedness.
· Her name, "MYSTERY,"indicates that she is not literal Babylon. The Word "mystery" identifies her as being a kingdom not known in John’s time. And the Word
· .“BABYLON” identifies her with the religious rites and mysteries of ancient Babylon.
This kingdom has all types of false gods, demon worship and witchcraft and so on in it.
What kingdom wasn’t known during Johns time and has all these forms of worship in it.
· The name, "MOTHER OF HARLOTS," identifies the woman/whore as the greatest
harlot ever. (Rev. 17:5). The harlots refer to many branches which have sprung up within her and have changed the true Word of Eloheem (God); just as she has changed herself. She once served Eloheem (God). This Religious system within this kingdom it is not just one but many branches that have sprang off and have become as apostate as the great whore herself.
This is all the different types of religions that have sprung up such as the Jehovah’s witness, Mormans and all that teach doctrines of devils such as unconditional eternal security and the ones that teach purgatory and so on. She will use her power and strength maybe before and after the resurrection/rapture of the church to dominate the 10 kings of the Revised Roman Empire until the Antichrist comes to full power over the 10 kingdoms by the middle of Daniel's 70th week or the middle of tribulation (Rev. 17:1,3,9-17). The name, "MOTHER identifies her with a kingdom.
“Example” Ezekiel 23:1-4 The Word of YAHWEH (the Lord) came again unto me, saying, 2Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother (That mother is the nation of Israel ) 3And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity. 4And the names of them were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters. Thus were their names; Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem Aholibah.
[ The mother here is the nation of Israel. ] What kingdom is the mother of the world now?
· “abominations of the Earth," identifies her to be a kingdom that allows all religious system’s fostering an tolerating all the abominations that go with idolatry and spiritual fornication.The Word abominations is used many times of idolatry and whoredoms associated with many different types of worship. The kinds of worship that is ungodly. (Deut. 18:9-12; Deut. 29:17-18;Deut. 32:16-17; 1 Kings14:24; 2 Kings 16:3-4;
2 Kings 21:2-11; Ezekiel16:22-58; etc.).The great whore now and of the future tribulation will be the mother of abominations in Eloheem’s (God's) sight because she will exceed all others in wickedness . A report from the Cutting Edge Report ministries indicated that: A few special agents embedded within the Marines, (from an “intel” agency) desperately hunted for occultic artifacts including the very special copy of the Babylonian Talmud and Kabbalah. These artifacts retained highly mysterious and occultic value in and of themselves and some people in very high places want to get their hands on these items.
They were found and swiftly removed from the nation and headed to America for “analysis .These items are by some; expected to become useful in empowering an occultic agenda for the N.W.O. It also officially ceded the Prophetic Mantle and title of “Mystery Babylon” to the United States. While the act of transference took only a short moment in the great timeline of humanity, the preparations were long in the making.
- Spiritual drunkennes-Drunken with the blood of the saints. These are the one’s that
knew Eloheem (God) but by the false doctrines of these false religions such as unconditional eternal security they backslid and went to hell and this blood will be on her hands for allowing these false doctrines to be taught. This will take place mainly before the resurrection of the church. Most bible scholars put this first half of the verse with the second half and don’t realize it is totally something different. Eloheem (God) gave me a Divine Revelation on this verse .If you put the two parts together as the same meaning you will get the wrong meaning of the woman entirely.That is the reason most bible scholars have come to the wrong conclusion and only look at this system martyring saints. The blood of the saints has not even been looked at and is the most important of the two which are the false teachings sending once Christians to hell. By doing this they are only looking at a religious system that has marterd saints. What kingdom did most of these doctrines start and are allowed to be taught everywhere.
- drunkenness - drunken with blood of the martyrs of Jesus—proves that this is a
ingdom and is a religious institution. Governments have carried out the dictates of leaders in religion, doing the actual killing of saints because of religion.Although this prophecy speaks mainly of the future drunkenness of mystery Babylon after the resurrection of the church, This kingdom allows all the religious systems of the past in it and all to prosper who have killed Christians for centuries. Martyrdom of saints will again be revived in the old Roman Empire territory and the whole world between the rapture and the Second Coming. In the first 3 1/2 years of Daniel's 70th week, the woman/great whore will murder the saints of Jesus (Rev. 17:6). When the church is gone out of this kingdom all the ones who thought they didn’t have to repent after they sinned because they where already saved will realize that they were wrong that they had to live by the Word of Eloheem (God) and begin to come back to Eloheem (God). By this time this kingdom will have become so wicked because of the Satan worshipers, witchcraft, idol worshipers, atheist and Muslims and every other cult that will be in it, they will kill the Christians that repent. The reason for so many being killed within this kingdom is because it is where unconditional eternal security this false doctrine strives today. They will be so many that come back to YAHSHUA (the Lord) and die for him. Then in the middle of the week when Antichrist comes to power over the 10 kingdoms the woman/great whore will be destroyed and martyrdom of Christians will be carried on by the beast and the 10 kings until the second coming (Rev. 13:1-18; Rev. 14:9-11; Rev. 17:9-17; Rev. 19:11-20:6). What kingdom does this doctrine of unconditional security thrive in today?
· The Woman sits on the beast itself, which controls the territories where the first 6 heads have controlled which are the 1st.head Egyptian Empire 2nd. head The Assyrian Empire 3rd. head the Babylonian Empire 4th. head The Medo-Persian Empire 5th. head Grecian Empire and 6th. head The Roman Empire.
The 7th. head will be the Empire of the ten kings while the antichrist is coming to power over them.. The heads are in succession of the Kingdoms that have and will persecute Israel. If there was ever was a doubt in the minds of those who have theorized that America was Mystery Babylon, it should have been removed by the United States conquering victory over Iraq, the land of ancient Babylon. The victorious American forces secured more than Saddam Hussein’s defeat they also seized the ancient archaeological site of Babylon and control of that kingdom.
· Notice that the woman dose not sit on the 8th.head/Kingdom of Rev.17:11 because
when the antichrist/beast comes to power over the ten kingdoms he will become the 8th. .Head. She sits on the beast himself before he has that 8th. head meaning he will not receive that final head or crown until he controls that region and this will not happen until he has destroyed the woman.And then she will no longer control the beast or the territory. Of the 10 kingdoms. This proves the woman to be a kingdom and not just a religion.
The following statement was Implaced in this book 01-24-05
A mighty Prophet “Samuel Doctorian” Was on the island of Patmos prayin and fasting and five powerful Angels came to him; each with an instrument. The 1st. was the Angel of Asia and he had a trumphet.The 2nd. Was the Angel of Israel and the Middle East and he had a cycle. The 3rd. was the Angel of Africa and he had a sWord. The 4th. was the Angel of Eroupe and he had a scale, and the 5th. was the Angel of the Americas and he had a Big bowl filled with great judgment. This bowl woud be the same as the cup in Rev.17:4.
The 10 horns on the beast are symbolic of the 10 kingdoms that are present during this time and age of tribulation the first 3 ½ years of tribulation and are the 7th. head .
Since the beast is the 8th world empire (Rev. 17:11), it is clear that the woman doesn’t control the 8th. Empire which is the beast’s kingdom.
- The truth is that Eloheem (God) has never judged a religious system only the people that have comitted the fornication or the sin and the city and/or Kingdom that allowed it. Example Sodom Gomorrah was destroyed and the people but not the system of sins they continue even today and will continue until Eloheem (God) puts down all rebellion and cast all sin into the lake of fire.
- The destruction and hatred by the 10 kings prove it to be a Kingdom as well.
Rev. 17:12-13 (KJV) And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
To understand this prophecy we have to understand Islam. Why will they give their power to the Beast?
The prophet Muhammad is reported to have said:
"During the last times, my people will be afflicted with terrible and unprecedented calamities and misfortunes from their rulers, so much so that this vast earth will appear small to them. Persecution and injustice will engulf the earth. The believers will find no shelter to seek refuge from these tortures and injustices. At such a time, God will raise from my progeny a man who will establish peace and justice on this earth in the same way as it had been filled with injustice and distress."Muḥammad al-Mahdī (born 868) (Arabic: محمد المهدى ) is the twelfth and final Shi'a Imam. He is the person believed by Shi'as to be the Mahdi; a figure considered by both Sunnis and Shias to be the ultimate saviour of humankind. Shi'as and Sunnis differ on the identity of the Mahdi, with Shi'as believing that he was born in 868 and has been hidden by God (referred to as occultation) to later emerge to fulfill his mission. Sunnis either believe that he is yet to be born, or that he was born recently and has yet to emerge. Whatever the case, both groups believe that he will bring absolute peace and justice throughout the world by establishing Islam as the global religion. As such, the personality and account of Muhammad al-Mahdi in this article is one that is believed only by Shi'as.
Shi'as believe that when Muhammad al-Mahdi will reappear, the prophet Isa (Jesus) will also reappear and that he will pray behind al-Mahdi. In other words Jesus will not be as a great as the Mahdi .They are to both to go to Jerusalem .Jesus is to Declare that he is not the son of God/Ali and that all are to worship the Mahdi and all that don’t will be put to Death. Both by Jesus and the Mahdi. These two men will be the False prophet and the Beast.
The name Jaysh al-Mahdī has apocalyptic connotations to a Muslim's ear: in Islamic theology, the Mah'dī is an end-times figure who it is said will assist the Masīh - Masih is the Arabic name for Messiah. In modern Arabic it is used as one of the many titles of Isa, (عيسى `Īsā). Masih is most often used by Christian Arabs as well as Muslims, and is written as Yasu' al-Masih (يسوع المسيح Yasū`a al-Masīħ) or Isa al-masih.
The word Masih literally means "promised one", and Isa or Yasu' al-masih is believed to be the provider of salvation to humankind. Thus Arabic-speaking Christians refer to to destroy the Dajjāl {ad-Dajjal (Arabic: دجّال)-Jesus- ("The Deceiver/impostor/quack"[1]) is an evil figure in Islamic eschatology, who will appear before Yaum al-Qiyamah. Yawm al-Qīyāmah (Arabic: يوم القيامة literally: "Day of the Resurrection") is the Arabic name for the Last Judgement. Belief in Qiyâmah is part of Aqidah and is a fundamental tenet of faith in Islam. The trials and tribulations of Qiyâmah are detailed in both the Qur'an and the Hadith, as well as in the commentaries of the Islamic expositors and scholarly authorities such as al-Ghazali, Ibn Kathir, Ibn Majah, Muhammad al-Bukhari, and Ibn Khuzaimah who explain them in detail. Every human, Muslim and non-Muslim alike, is held accountable for his or her deeds and are judged by Allah accordingly (Qur'an 74.38). Al-Qiyâmah is the 75th sura of the Qur'an. He is similar to the Antichrist in Christianity
"Dajjal" in itself is a commonly use Arabic word, "Dajjals" could refer to "False prophets". "Al-Dajjal" on the other hand translates to "The Impostor", refering to a specific end-of time deceiver.[1]} } Dajjal will apear before Yaum al-Qiyamah
and establish a global Islamic khilāfah in preparation for the Yaum al-Qiyāmah; in more familiar terms, it is believed that the Mahdī will come to help the Messiah (i.e., Jesus, referred to in Islam as `Īsā ibn Mariyam) to defeat the Antichrist (literally, al-Masīh al-Dajjāl means "the Deceiving Messiah"), before establishing a just Islamic social order in preparation for Judgement Day. The two that will be slain and fulfill this in the word of God is the two witness in Rev.12. The Beast / Imām al-Zamān,-Mahdi )and the False Prophet (Masih )will portray the two witness as the Dajjal’s because of their claim to be Prophets of YHWH and make war with them and slay them in the middle of the tribulation.
In the Twelver school of Shi`ite Islam, the Mahdī is believed to have been an historical figure identified with the Twelfth Imām, Muhammad al-Mahdī, and is therefore called al-Imām al-Mahdī. It is believed that he is still present on earth "in occultation" (i.e., hidden), and will emerge again in the end times. Those Shi`ites of this school believe that the Imām Mahdī is the rightful ruler of the whole Islamic community (ummah) at any given time, and he is therefore also called Imām al-Zamān, meaning "Imām of the Age."
sus as their Masih or saviour.
Thus these two The False Mesiah and False Prophet which wll be the Beast and the False Prophet of Rev.12 these will have one mind.
Rev.17:13 They have one mind to Destroy The US and Israel so the Mahdi CAN RULE. To get a true understanding of 1st. why the Shi'i Muslims are so against the US from occupying or forming a Democracy and why they hate her so much we must understand Muslim Prophecy,
We will go back to their false prophet Muhammad .When Muhammad died he left no successor for Ali ,The tradition came the Doctrine of the 12
(Muhammad was to have said "The Imams after me will be twelve in number, of whom nine will be from the progeny of Husayn. Moreover, the Mahdi of this community will be among us. Anyone who holds on to them after me holds on to the rope of God; and whoever abandons them has abandoned God." [12])
The Doctrine of the 12 was the decedents of Muhammad one of them would be the Muslim Messiah and be the -Mahdi. Prophecy states that one of the 12 would be the Mahdi but it was unknown which one .The Shi'i hold this doctrine because the 12 where Shi'i Muslims. So the Sunni Muslims killed the first 11 and was a going to kill the 12th. To prove this prophecy false. It just so happens that the 12th. Was hid away and was never fount. Since the first 11 where dead then they couldn’t be the Messiah,but they believe the 12th. Will come back as the Messiah and was to come to the Muslim Temple that was Destroyed by the Sunnis because they don’t waunt a Shi'i Messiah,and if the Temple was Destroyed then this Prophecy could not come to past. It just so happens though that the Shi'i blame the destruction of the Temple on the US because they believe that the US is trying to stop the -Mahdi from coming .This is the true reason for the insurgents and also as long as the US controls that Territory the Mahdi cannot take power so they will have to Destroy the US so the Ali- Mahdi can Rule.Though the Sunnis will be divided over the Beast/Ali-Mahdi/Gog the vizer of assur or The head of state for the Muslims “see Gog in ancient Summarian. who is the vizier of Assur. “Assur” was the Assyrians father of the gods. “Whom we would call Satan”.Viezer means the muslims head of state or ruler. When you put this together it reads “ Gog is the Muslims ruler/head of state for Satan”.
Sunni Muslims do not consider Muhammad al-Mahdi to be the Mahdi; many scholars even doubt that he existed at all. They hold that the 11th Imam died at the age of 28 years without leaving any offspring. It should be noted that this is one of many areas where Sunni and Shi'i views differ.
This is why we see the division in Daniel 2:41-42 (KJV) And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. [42] And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
But for the greater of all Muslims they will agree to unite with the Beast to Destroy the U.S. and Israel so the Mahdi can come and rule. So the U.S. Has to be removed because Her power over the Mahdi or so he can arrive on the seen either way the U.S has to be removed.
Rev. 17:16-17 (KJV) And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. [17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
They turn on the great whore/ woman and destroy her .The reason for the woman being destroyed is because the ten Kingdoms hate her some will even war with the Beast/Mahdi because they don’t believe he is the Mahdi .Three kingdoms fight the beast until he defeats them , the rest agree to give their power to him Because they will believe he is the true Mahdi All will Unite to destroy the Woman .
The woman is destroyed because of her military power that she has had over them and not religious power. No religion will be able to strive in the middle east except the Islam faith until the second coming of Messiah (Christ). We have to look at the fact that the beast will be a Muslis and not a European as some teach and understand that the Catholic Church will not control him in the least. [Rev. 17:16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. ] all these are signs of ‘A NUCLEAR WEAPON” only a city or kingdom could be destroyed in this way not a religion .This will be done so that the Antichrist/Mahdi will be able to come into power. The Mahdi/Beast will seek to destroy Israel after the U.S is out of the way,the last 3 1/2 years (Rev.12 .)
I believe the Kingdom out of the 10 kingdoms of the Beasts Empire that will destroy Mystery Babylon will be the Persian one Iran. I say this because of two reasons 1st. Because the Bible code Matrix “see Bible code Matrix” speakes of Persia and also because the Beast will also be a Shiite Muslim “see the Beast” He will have the feet of the Bear. What kingdom stops the Muslims from destroying Israel and what kingdom do they hate just as bad as they do Israel ?This kingdom is called the great Satan for a good reason. Friday prayers in TERAN always include the obligatory chant, "Death to America."
We Must Now look at Zech.5 To get a better understanding.
Zech. 5:1-11 (KJV) Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll. [2] And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits. [3] Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it. “ this is just giving two paticular sins but the roll contains all sins which will be completely done away in the Lake of fire ” [4] I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof. [5] Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. [6] And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah that goeth forth. “ay-faw'; or (shortened) 'ephah, ay-faw'; of Egyptian derivative; an ephah or measure for grain; hence a measure in general :- ephah, (divers) measure (-s).This is the Measure of sin throughout the Earth.” He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth. “ The sin which has come from Shinar/Babylon. “ [7] And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah. “ The woman is Babylon and the King is Sadam Huessan “
[8] And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. “ This Prophecy was fulfilled when the U.S. defeated Iraq and Sadam Huesan” [9] Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out two women, “ These 2 women or Kingdoms are the U.S. and Great Britain” and the wind was in their wings; “ The defeat of the woman/Babylon/would be swift and was.” for they had wings like the wings of a stork: “ Meaning very powerful
“ and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heaven. [10] Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah? “ What are they going to do with Babylon and the sin thereof ? “ [11] And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar: “ Here we have the U.S. and Great Britain rebuilding Babylon and also a Temple which will be built to receive the al-Mahdi “ and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base.
- The angelic explanation of the great whore proves her to be a kingdom reigning over kings of the earth that allows spiritual fornication.. (Rev. 17:18). The Greek reads, " "And the woman whom thou sawest is the city the great,which has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.
We need to also look at the judgment of Eloheem “God’’ on the nation of Israel. The final judgment on Israel will be as a Nation and not just on individual Jewish people. Example: seventy weeks/sevens are determined upon Daniels people “the Jews” and his holy city “Jerusalem” his Holy city is speaking of the Government of Israel.The final seven years of this age which will be the seven years of tribulation which is what Eloheem “God” uses to bring the Jewish people back to Yahweh “the Lord”.Eloheems judgment will be on a kingdom and its citizens. This chapter and this kingdom is the United States of America and that city/woman is New York. We were once his but we have fallen hard and fast and will fall even further than this; even though I believe they will be a great revival just before the resurrection of the church ,the rest of this kingdom will become more wicked and Eloheem (God) will have to let the city the great New York be destroyed. The final keys that will lock the door to destruction will be when the US signs the treaty with the world to divide Israel. God warns against the dividing of Israel. The other is the rebellion of the Jews that live in the US mainly New York. God will send for another hunter to chastise them because they will not return home because of prosperity.Zech.1:16-21. Eloheem (God) warned all Americans and the Jews on 911 and wanted us Americans to wake up out of our sleep but most just apologized and didn’t repent and change their ways. God also was warning the prosperous Jews whom many perished during that attack to wake up out of their diasper/sleep and go home.
The President during the Tribulation will be Hillary Clinton.She will be the Female figure of the Great Whore of New York City.I have said this for many years even before she came on the political scene and before she became senator of New York..
She will lead the US into even a darker path than it is Now. This will be done because of the Legal authority given to Satan by the US Government ,its Citizens and all the so called Christian Hiprocrits.God will Judge this Country and all the So called Prophets that say God is going to Bless the US .Those are false Prophets and time will tell.
The US will prosper to an extent under her Rule but it will be Destroyed.God showed me this several years ago and I have taught it to many.God will let her Lovers those religions that she “New York city “has commited fornacation with destroy her.The futer Prresident Clinton will as well commit fornication with them and she will be destroyed as well, Some from within but the one the Islamic from without .Iran the Feet of the Bear will execute
judgement on Her.The US is the great Whore or Great Satan in their eyes and she Hillary Clinton will be as well.

Part#2 The Beast
To get a true understanding of whom and what the beast is we have to look at three things
1. A symbol of a mortal man Rev. 13:18 ;(He will be slain/die ) Dan.7:11, 8:25 ; 2 Thes. 2:8;
2. A symbol of a principality (He will come out of the Bott. pit) Rev. 17:8 ; Rev 11:7;
3. A symbol of a kingdom Dan.8:23 ;Rev.17:9-11 ;
Ephes. 6:12 (KJV) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Rev. 17:8-17 The beast that thou sawest was, [This means that the symbol of the fallen Angel/Prince and Kingdom part’s of the beast was on earth before Johns day or before Messiah (Christ).That would mean one of the first five Empires/heads] and is not; [This means the beast is not present or ruling on earth during his day /time. The Roman Empire is during his time the sixth head.The Prince of the Roman Empire will not rule during this part of the tribulation because he is not.] and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, [ This means that the beast or fallen Prince will ascend out of the bottomless pit and the mortal man part of the symbol of the beast will be possessed by demons out of the bottomless pit and in the future tribulation. He will defeat the 7th. head/10 Kings and become the 8th.head/Empire] and go into perdition: [Then both symbols the mortal man and the Prince will be cast into the lake of fire for eternity] 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,[Those that will never know Jesus as their saviour, Eloheem (God) has knowledge of all things and he knows who will serve him and go to Heaven .] when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. [This means that one of the symbols of the beast a Fallen Angel will come from the bottomless pit and His demons will posses the man part of the symbol of the beast and the mortal man will be killed at the battle of Armageddon and his number will be man’s number which is six,six,six.] Rev.17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. [This is the seven kingdoms that have ruled over Israel by the sword 1st. Head Egypt,
2nd. Head Assyria, 3rd. Head Babylon, 4th. Head Medo-Persia ,5th. Head Greece, 6th. Head Rome,
7th. Head the 10 Kings out from the old Roman Empire Terr.; mountains are kingdoms. The woman controls the territories of the previous six heads and of the seventh; this is what it means by her sitting on them.] I will give you an example of a mountain which is a Kindom and the mountain being Rome which was cast into the sea. Mark 11:13-14 (KJV) And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; ( “ See the Fig Tree” ) [ This is symbolic of what was to be the rejection at the cross of the nation of Israel because of their rejection of him and because they weren’t bearing fruit;nothing but leaves is symbolic of them only being a kingdom but no fruit. ] Mk.11:13b. for the time of figs was not yet. {The figs/fruit come after the leaves}
[ Because of their rejection of Jesus he was a going to cut them off and give salvation to another nation the Gentiles .It no longer was their time
Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of Eloheem (God) shall be taken from you,and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. ] [ After the 7 years of tribulation the whole nation of Israel will bear fruit and be saved in one day.
Zech. 3:9 (KJV) For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith YAHWEH (the Lord) of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. ] Romans 11:25-26 ;Isaiah 4:3
Mark 11:14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. [ ahee-ohn'; from the same as Greek 104 (aei); properly an age; (Jewish) a Messianic period (present or future) This was just for an age or period of time the times of the Gentiles. ] And his disciples heard it. ) Matthew 13:31-32 (KJV) Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: 32Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof. We are suppose to have the faith as a grain of mustard seed not of a grain of mustard seed. See we are to grow in faith as the mustard seed does and become big and strong in the Lord. Matthew 21:21 (KJV) Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. What is Jesus a talking about when he speaks of this mountain? 1st. We must ask what is a mountain in the word of God ? Almost always unless a certain mountain is given the word mountain is a kingdom. 2nd. What kingdom is during this time the Roman Empire, as the faith of the beleivers grew the Roman Empire fell because of Christanity.That mountain was cast into the Sea.
Rev.17: 10 And there are seven kings: [This is just telling us that the seven heads/mountains are seven kingdoms] five are fallen,[This means that five have already fallen before Johns day or before Jesus came to earth in the flesh. Those five are Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia ,and Grecia] and one is,[ this means that one is during Johns day which is Rome] and the other is not yet come; and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. [This means the seventh hasn’t come yet but it will be here in the future tribulation the first 3 ½ years of tribulation. [This 7th.head/kingdom th 10 Kings will be defeated by the antichrist by the middle of tribulation.]
Rev.17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth,[This means the beast that was on earth before Johns day and is not during his day even he will assend out of the Pit and he will first defeat three of the 10 Kings and the rest will give him their power.Dan.7:8 and after he defeats the ten kings then he becomes the 8th.head/Empire,] and is of the seven,
[This means that the satanic powers that controlled one of the seven previous kingdoms will control the antichrist/beast. And since he is before the sixth he has to be one of the first five.Egypt,Assyria,Babylon,Medo-Persia or Greece not Rome the 6th.]
and goeth into perdition. [ He will be cast into the lake of fire ]Rev.17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [ These ten kings will come to power in the end times and give their power to the beast/antichrist.]
REV.17:13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. [After the antichrist has defeated three of these kingdoms in Dan.7:8 the rest will decide to give their power and strength to the beast to destroy the woman and if they can do that they will think that they can destroy Israel.]Rev.17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is YAHSHUA (Lord) of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. [The Lamb is Jesus and this is talking about the battle of Armageddon] Rev.17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. [ This is all the countries that the woman has control of all over the world.] Rev.17:16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, [These peoples within this territory already hate the woman she is called the great Satan ] and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. [The only way that these nations that have come into the antichrist power could do such as this is with a nuclear weapon. And a nuclear weapon wouldn’t be able to destroy a religion their would be a remnant somewhere .A persons religion is in their heart and that cannot be totally destroyed by man, everyone with that religion would have to be destroyed and that would take a long period of time man and Satan has been trying to destroy the Jews and Christians always and they haven’t been able to succeed this should tell you something .We must also look at the fact that this woman will be destroyed suddenly in the middle of tribulation and this cannot be done of a religion.] Rev.17:17 For Eloheem (God) hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the Words of Eloheem (God) shall be fulfilled. [ Eloheem (God) has many times raised up kingdoms to fulfill his will to bring forth prophecy; such as Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Grecia ,and Rome. What kingdom could she be that has the power to control these ten kingdoms until the middle of tribulation?
In this study I will try to give you some of the understanding that I have about how Eloheem (God) sets up all kingdoms
Psalm 68:21a.But Eloheem (God) shall wound the head of his enemies,
Romans 16:20a. And the Eloheem (God) of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. soon-tree'-bo; to crush completely, [ Psa 68:21a. and Rom. 16:20a. are talking about the complete destruction of Satan].[The Word head is symbolic of the principalities which are fallen angels that controls kingdoms.
Satan is over all of our enemies which are Ephes. 6:12 (KJV) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
ELOHEEM (GOD) SETS UP ALL KINGDOMS USING ANGELS Daniel 2:21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: Daniel 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. [The prince of Persia is the satanic prince /fallen Angel or ruler of the kingdom of Persia in the spirit realm, This was the one ruling the kingdom of Persia for Satan who is recognized in Scripture as being the god and ruler of this world, having usurped man's dominion (Matthew 4:8-9; Matthew 12:24-30; John 8:44; John 12:31; 2 Cor. 4:4; Ephes. 2:2; Ephes. 6:10-18; 1 John 3:8; Rev. 12:7-12; Rev. 16:13-16; Rev. 20:1-10). Satan has Fallen Angels or Princes over all the governments of this world Satan has his trusted angels who are responsible to him for carrying out his will in those governments. Satan seeks to hinder or try and stop Eloheem’s (God's) plan in the fulfillment of prophecy regarding world kingdoms. Eloheem (God) also has trusted angels or princes and they carry out His will concerning what He has predicted to take place in the kingdoms of this world (Daniel 10:11-21; Daniel 11:1; Daniel 12:1). Hence, there are always wars between these two groups of Angels /Princes in the heavenlies (Daniel 10:13,20-21; Daniel 11:1; Daniel 12:1; Jude 1:9; Rev. 12:7-12). All wars lost or won on earth are results of wars lost or won by these heavenly armies. All wars are won eventually by all of Eloheem’s (God’s) righteous Angels . Not only over every government of this world are there good and evil spirit beings seeking to influence and carry out the will of their masters, but over every individual life the same is true (Matthew 18:10; 2 Cor. 10:4-6; Ephes. 2:2; Ephes. 6:10-18; Hebrews 1:14; Jude 1:9). Satan himself is active along the line of seeking to defeat Eloheem’s (God's) purpose in the lives of His children (1 Chron. 21:1; Job 1:6; Job 2:1; Zech. 3:1; Matthew 4:1-11; 2 Cor. 4:4; Ephes. 2:2; Ephes. 6:10-18; 1 John 3:8; Rev. 12:12). Michael is the prince of Israel (Daniel 10:21; Daniel 12:1). The prince of Grecia is referred to in Daniel 10:20. The Words prince and princes are from the Hebrew: sar (HSN-8269), which means a chief ruler in the natural or spiritual realms. It is generally rendered "prince" in the book of Daniel (Daniel 1:7-11,18; Daniel 8:11,25; Daniel 9:6,8; Daniel 10:13,20,21; Daniel 11:5; Daniel 12:1).
There are Four Angels Named in Scripture
1.Lucifer is named in (Isaiah 14:12; Ezekiel 28:11-17;) Lucifer is Satan /the Dragon and that old Serpant.
2 Abaddon or Apollyon is named in (Rev. 9:11) Apollyon is Satan’s highest ranking fallen Angel the king or prince of the Abyss over all the demons and fallen Angels in the Abyss under Satan whom is in Heaven accusing the brethren.
3.Gabriel is named in (Daniel 8:16; Daniel 9:21; Luke 1:19,26) Gabriel is an Arch Angel and a Prince.
4..Michael is named in (Daniel 10:13,21; Daniel 12:1; Jude 1:9; Rev. 12:7) Michael is an Arch Angel and the Prince of the kingdom of Israel.
one of the chief princes This proves there are ranks among angels(1 Thes. 4:16; Jude 1:9
kings of Persia This refers to the satanic princes of the kingdom of the Medeo and Persia Empire
Daniel 10:20 Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.(THE DEFEAT OF PERSIA BY GRECIA IN THE SPIRIT REALM )Daniel 11:1 Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.(THE DEFEAT OF BABYLON BY THE MEDO-PERSIAN EMPIRE IN THE SPIRIT REALM.)ANGELS ARE PRINCES, SATAN IS PRINCE OF THE AIR. JESUS IS PRINCE OF PRINCES WHOM IS OVER ALL ANGELS.THEY ARE ALSO KINGS in Rev. 9:11 (KJV) And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.)
IN Rev. 13:1 (KJV) And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw abeast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.We must notice here that the ten horns of the antichrist/beast is crowned .Meaning that he has control and will rule the 10 kingdoms, but did not rule the previous seven Satan did in )
Rev. 12:3 (KJV) And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.( by his 7 heads being crowned
THIS MEANS SATAN RULED BY AUTHORITY OVER THE SEVEN PREVIOUS KINGDOMS , BUT SATAN GIVES THE ANTICHRIST HIS POWER AND AUTHORITY OVER THE TEN KINGS and he becomes the 8th.head/kingdom
Rev 13:2(KJV) and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopardTHIS LEAPORD IS SYMBOLIC OF THE GREACIAN EMPIRE THE 5TH. HEAD ON THE BEAST OF REV.13:1-2 AND REV.17:3
This lepord kingdom or Grecian Empire is in Daniel 7:6 the prince that controlled the Grecian Empire will control the antichrist/beast Empire the 8th. head of the beast in Rev.13:1 and Rev. 17:3 he is the 8th. He has a face of a leopard and This means that this will be Satan’s Prince that controls the beast/antichrist
Daniel 7:6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. [ The four heads are the four kingdoms that came from this Empire after Alexander the Great’s death at the age of 33; They are the 1st.head is Egypt, the 2nd. Head is Syria, the 3rd. head is Turkey , And the 4th. head is Grecia . These heads which are kingdoms are not in any specific order like the ones that are on beast in Rev.13 and 17 .]Rev. 13:2 , and his feet were as the feet of a bear [ THIS IS SYMBOLIC OF THE MEDO-PERSIAN EMPIRE in Daniel 10:13 The prince of Persia Dan.10:13 and the 4th. head of the beast/antichrist in Rev. 13:1 and Rev 17:3.]
Daniel 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
[ The Prince of Persia is the fallen Angel that ruled that Kingdom for Satan and the Kings were the fallen Angels under the Prince of Persia’s authority that Michal and Gabriel had to fight in the spirit realm..]Daniel 7:5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
[This bear was symbolic of the Medo Persian Empire which was the 4th. head of the beast of Rev.13:1-2 and Rev. 17:3.] Jeremiah 51:11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: YAHWEH (the Lord) hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of YAHWEH (the Lord), the vengeance of his temple. [This spirit is a fallen Angel; Angels are spirits (see seven eyes and seven spirits of YAHWEH (the Lord). )
This is the fallen Angel that controls the Medo-Persian Empire for Satan the same as the Prince of Persia .This spirit/Prince has authority over other Princes/Kings which are also fallen Angels in Daniel 10:13 the Kings that Michael and Gabriel fought were these Kings and Princes.]
Rev. 13:2 and his mouth as the mouth of a lion:
[ The Lion IS SYMBOLIC OF THE BABYLONION EMPIRE The prince of Babylon. ]
Gabriel helped Michael fight against the prince of Babylon in Daniel 11:1 Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him. [ Michael stood with Gabriel to strengthen him or to fight against and defeat the Prince of Babylon which was Satan’s fallen Angel over the Kingdom. of the Babylonian Empire. They not only had to fight against him but many other Princes/Kings that were under his authority.]
Daniel 7:4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it .[ The lion is symbolic of the Babylonian Empire the 3rd. head of the beast of Rev 13:1-2 and Rev.17:3 }
Rev.13:3 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. THIS HEAD THAT IS WOUNDED . IS The Kingdom or the revised Roman Empire ruled by A satanic prince/angel of that KINGDOM AND IS HEALED BY THE COMING OF THE BEAST which is the symbolic name of the satanic prince/angel THE 8TH.HEAD OUT FROM WITHIN THE GREACIAN EMPIRE TERR.. THE 5TH KINGDOM TO PERSACUTE THE JEWS AND IS OF THE SEVEN Rev.17:11 [DAN. 7.]
The demon spirits that controlled that kingdom under the Prince of Grecia will posses and control the beast and the frogs that come out of his mouth in Rev.16;13 these will be some of the demons that he is possessed with.Rev. 16:13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
We can see that Angels are Horns and carpenters in Zech. 1:16-18 (KJV)
Therefore thus saith the Lord; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the Lord of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
Zech. 1:17Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the Lord shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
18Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
19And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem. ( These Horns are the fallen Angels or the Heads of the first four Empires in Dan.7. The ones that have scattered Judah and Israel.
1. The 1ST. Horn the Babylonian Empire the 3rd. Head on the beast Rev 13,17/ Dan.7:4 .
2. The 2ND. Horn the Medo-Persian Empire the 4th.Head on the Beast Rev.13,17 /Dan.7:5, 8:2-7
3. The 3RD. Horn the Grecian Empire the 5th. Head on the Beast Rev. 13,17 /Dan.7:6 , 8:5-8.
4. The 4TH. Horn the Roman Empire the 6th. Head on the beast Rev.13 ,17 /Dan.7:7 .
These scattered Israel and Judah all over the four corners of the World.)
These are the same kingdoms spoken of in Dan.2:31-45
20And ( YAWHEW ) shewed me four carpenters.
Zech.1:21 Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake, saying, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head: but these are come to fray them, to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over the land of Judah to scatter it. Jesus was a carpenter; These four carpenters/Angels came to cast out the four horns/Fallen Angels.
The dragon was wounded when Rahab which is Egypt was cut in Isa. 51:9 the head is a satanic prince/angel which controls the kingdom not a living mortal man;This is the same meaning as the fatal wound in Rev.13:3 The fatal wound is the future defeat of the revised Roman Empire and the revision of the Grecian Empire the face of a leopard by the beast;
Isaiah 51:9 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of YAHWEH (the Lord); awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Art thou not it that hath cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon?
A RELIGIOUS SYSTEM WILL NOT CONTROL THE ANTICHRIST/BEAST AS MANY TEACH
Not one religious system but Satan will be able to control the antichrist/beast. Only a kingdom will have that power until the middle of tribulation.
He will worship Satan and be possessed and controlled by demons He will not worship the Eloheem (God) of his fathers. [Daniel 11:37 Neither shall he regard the Eloheem (God) of his fathers,]He will get his power and strength from the dragon/Satan himself.
[Rev. 13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: ] [ We will see latter in the study that antichrist/beast will be a Muslims not a Roman ; ]But we see that He will come out from the old Roman Empire terr. In Dan. 7
Daniel 7:1-28 (KJV) In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. 2Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. 3And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Beasts are symbolic of kingdoms (Daniel 7:17,23-24; Daniel 8:20-23; Rev. 17:8-11) and the kingdoms rulers (Rev. 11:7; Rev. 13:18; Rev. 17:8).
Dan.7:4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
Some seem to believe that this vision was for 4 kingdoms after the present one but this is not true. Babylon had already risen and was in power when Daniel seen
The image of Daniel 2 , yet Daniel said to Nebuchadnezzar, "Thou art this head of gold. And after thee shall arise another kingdom," etc. (Daniel 2:38-39). If Babylon could be symbolized by a head of gold after it had already risen into power, then the same kingdom could be symbolized by a lion after it had risen. A lion is the symbol of the king of Babylon in(Isaiah 5:29; Jeremiah 4:7; Jeremiah 50:17,44-46).
The Eagles wings denote the swiftness of the conquests of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. He had made a vast empire In just a few years. The wings being plucked and the lion standing upon its feet as a man with a man's heart being given to it symbolize the conquests of Nebuchadnezzar coming to an abrupt end by his insanity and his becoming sane again—as a man (Daniel 4:33,36).
Dan.75And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
A bear is a fitting symbol of Medo-Persia because of all their evil and thirst after blood it is also the second kingdom in sucession from the Babylonian Empire(Isaiah 13:16-18; Jeremiah 51:48-56.[one side] This is symbolic of the strength of the Persians compared to the Medes. It is the same Idea as the higher horn of the ram in Daniel 8:3—
Cyrus the Persian who was greater in power and strength than Darius the Mede (Daniel 5:31) and the Persian came up last of the two (2 Chron. 36:20-23; Ezra 1:1-8; Ezra 3:7; Ezra 4:5; Isaiah 44:28; Isaiah 45:1). This Medo-Persian kingdom is mentioned in Daniel 5:24-31; in Daniel 6:1-28; in Daniel 7:5,17; in Daniel 8:1-4,20; in Daniel 10:1-20; in Daniel 11:1-2; Isaiah 13:17-22; Isaiah 21:2; 2 Kings 17:6; 2 Kings 18:11; Esther 1:1-9:3.
[three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it] This symbolic of the conquest of Babylon, Lydia, and Egypt by the Medes and Persians. The bear devoured "much flesh."
6After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
[leopard] This is symbolic of the Grecian Empire founded by Alexander the Great. The leopard is known for its strength and swiftness. This is the third Kingdom/head that Daniel had seen in order. Previously, the two wings of the lion symbolized swiftness, but here the four wings symbolize double swiftness of Alexander over Nebuchadnezzar's conquests. None of the other beasts conquests equaled those of Alexander the great
The four heads are symbolic of the four divisions of the Grecian Empire after the death of Alexander, as do the four horns of § Daniel 8:8,22-23.
Heads almost always symbolize kingdoms (Daniel 8:20-23; Rev. 17:9-11). This kingdom is mentioned in Daniel 2:32,35,39,45; Daniel 7:6,17; Daniel 8:5-25; Daniel 10:20; Daniel 11:3-45; Zech. 8:13.
Dan.7: 7After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
The phrase "after this" indicates that the fourth kingdom would follow the preceding one which was—Greece (Daniel 7:6,7).The “fourth beast” is symbolic of the old Roman Empire, the fourth of four kingdoms in succession. It is mentioned by name only in the New Testament in (John 11:48; Acts 2:10; Acts 16:21; etc.). There is no beast on earth to compare it with so it was called dreadful, terrible, strong beast with great iron teeth symbolizing the same as the iron on the image of Daniel 2:40-43.
The Roman Empire devoured the other beasts and stamped upon them with its feet, meaning it conquered all the territories of the first beasts—Babylon, Medo-Persia, and Greece. It was different from all beasts before it, not only in a republican form of government, but also in power, greatness, extent of dominion, and length of duration. The ten horns symbolize ten kingdoms in the latter days, the last form of the old Roman Empire
(Daniel 7:7-8, 23-24; Rev. 13; Rev. 17:8-17).
Horns almost always symbolize kingdoms / kings (Daniel 7:7-8, 23-24; Daniel 8:8-9, 20-23;Rev.13:1,11; Rev. 17:3,12,16;).
Dan7:8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
The little horn was the last part of the beast seen by Daniel, and is therefore considered last here (Daniel 7:8,23-24; Rev. 17:12-17).
The ten horns were fully grown Then little horn came up. The little horn plucked up three
of the ten kingdoms by the roots, this is symbolic of the Antichrist coming in the last days
and after the formation of Rome into ten kingdoms. He will overthrow three of them and
the others will submit to him without further war. (Daniel 7:8,23-24;Daniel
9:27;Rev.6:2; Rev. 17:11-17). for they have one thing in their mind to destroy Mystery
Babylon Rev.17:12-13 because if they can destroy M.B. then the Mahdi will come and / or will be able to destroy Israel. “depending how they believe “
Rev.12 the woman clothed with the sunThis little horn will be a mortal man who speaks blasphemies against Eloheem (God) (Daniel 7:8,25; Daniel 11:36; Rev. 13:1,5; Rev. 17:3).
Dan.7:9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.
From the time of Babylon until the judgment of Daniel 7:9-10, the defeat of Antichrist and the second coming of Messiah (Christ) of Daniel 7:11-14.This will be the conclusion of the times of the gentiles their rule over the nation of Israel will end.Cast down refers to the judgment of the nations (Daniel 7:26; Matthew 25:31-46). Eloheem (God) the Father is the ancient of days, not Messiah (Christ) who is seen as a separate Person from the Ancient of days in Daniel 7:13-14. Both are seen as separate Persons by the same prophet and at the same place, so there must be at least two Persons in the Godhead. The fact is, there are three.
Dan.7:10A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. Dan.7:11I beheld then because of the voice of the great Words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
They are Four Things Concerning Antichrist and proving him to be a mortal man
1. He will speak great Words (Daniel 7:8,11,20,25; Daniel 8:23-25; Daniel 11:36; Rev. 13:5).
2. He will be slain (Daniel 7:11; Daniel 8:25; Daniel 11:45; Isaiah 11:4; 2 Thes. 2:8; Rev. 19:20). To be slain at the second coming, he will need to be a mortal man of the last days—one who will die for the first and last time his own appointed death (Hebrews 9:27). He therefore will not be some historical man who has died and been resurrected as an immortal man and an incarnation of Satan, as some believe.
3. His body will be destroyed (killed, Daniel 7:11; cp.).
4. His body will be cast into hell (Daniel 7:11; Rev. 19:20; Rev. 20: Matthew 10:28; Luke 12:510).
He will also be possessed by demons out of the abyss and he represents a kingdom.
12As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time
Dan.7:13I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
This "one" is the Son of Man, YAHWEH (the Lord) YAHSHUA (Jesus) Messiah (Christ). He is not the Ancient of days of Daniel 7:9-10, but another one, separate and distinct from Him came with the clouds of heaven (Daniel 7:13). This is definitely the second coming of Messiah (Christ) pictured here (Isaiah 63:1-6; Zech. 14:1-5; Matthew 24:29-31; Matthew 25:31-46; Matthew 26:64; 2 Thes. 1:7-10; 2 Thes. 2:8; Jude 1:14; Rev. 1:7; Rev. 11:15; Rev. 19:11-21).
If He comes to the Ancient of days, then He is not the Ancient of days. If they bring Him (the Son of man) near before Him (the Ancient of days), then it is confirmed twice in one scripture that these are two separate Persons, each having His own personal body, soul, and spirit. Dan.7:14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
The Son of man receives dominion, glory, and a kingdom composed of natural peoples of all races that they may be His subjects eternally. His kingdom is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away, and His kingdom shall not be destroyed.
Messiah (Christ) will receive a kingdom at His second coming (Daniel 7:13-14; Zech.
14; Matthew 24:29-31; Matthew 25:25:31-46; Jude 1:14; Rev. 11:15; Rev. 19:11-20:10).
His kingdom will be an eternal one (Daniel 7:13-14,18,27; Daniel 2:35,44-45; Daniel
4:3; Daniel 6:26; Psalm 45:6; Psalm 145:13; Psalm 146:10; Isaiah 9:6-7; Obadiah 21;
Micah 4:7; Matthew 25:31-46; Luke 1:32-33; Hebrews 1:8; Rev. 11:15; Rev. 22:4-5).
His eternal subjects will be the coming eternal generations of natural people who will
continue the same program that Adam and his race would have carried out if man had
not fallen (Daniel 7:13-14,18,27; Daniel 2:44-45; Genesis 8:22; Genesis 9:12; Isaiah
9:6-7; Isaiah 59:21; Rev. 11:15).
Dan.7:15I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and
the visions of my head troubled me. 16 I came near unto one of them that
stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made
me know the interpretation of the things. 17These great beasts, which
are four,are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth. These four beasts
are four kings or kingdoms in succession (Daniel 7:17,23-24; Daniel 2:39-43; Daniel 8:20
23; Rev. 17:9-11).18But the saints of the most High shall take the
kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
19Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was
diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were
of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces and
stamped the residue with his feet;
The teeth of iron is symbolic of the Roman Empire as revealed in the legs of iron and the feet, part of clay and iron, of Daniel 2:40-43.
Dan.7:20 And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows. 21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; 22Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
[Daniel 7:23-24 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth,[which was the 6th. head on the beast and 4th.kingdom from the time of Daniel 7. Which in Rev. 13:1 and Rev.17:3 is the Roman Empire; This will be the fourth kingdom from Daniel’s time forward that will persecute the Jews .
Eloheem (God) was showing him the future not the past. Eloheem (God) didn’t show Daniel the two before his time the 1st. head/Egypt, and 2nd. head/ Assyria which had already persecuted the Jews ; they had fallen before his time and he already had knowledge of them.
which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. [This kingdom will be Stronger ] 24And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: [ The 7th. head the Ten kingdoms shall arise in latter times or end of times ] and another shall rise after them; [ The 8th.head/ Kingdom, The antichrist/beast kingdom] and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. [ Before the antichrist can bring forth the 8th. Kingdom he has to defeat three of the ten kingdoms and the rest will give their kingdom to him for one reason to destroy Mystery Babylon because then they will think that they can destroy Israel. Rev.17:13-17 ]
In Dan. 8 we also can see the antichrist/beast coming out from of the Grecian Empire territory which is within the Roman Empire territory; Which consist of Egypt, Grecia,Turkey and Syria in
Daniel 8:21-25 And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king. [ Which was Alexander the great “For additional notes on Dan 8 also see pt.21-27 in The Islamic Jihad part Etymology of Apollo/Apollyon isconnected to the Four Horseman of the Apokalupsis ” ]
22Now that being broken,[ This is speaking of his death at the age of 33 ] whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
[ four kingdoms came out of the Grecian Empire after Alexander the greats death. Egypt, Grecia, Turkey and Syria. ] 23And in the latter time of their kingdom, [During the tribulation period] when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. [ The beast/antichrist will come out from within one of these four kingdoms][, dark sentences is witchcraft/Satan worship] 24And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power
( Rev. 13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast:) and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise,[He will worship Satan/dragon ,and practice witchcraft ]
Dan.8:24b-25a. and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. 25And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many:
[By the covenant he makes in Dan 9:27 with many he will be allowed to war with three nations and defeat them in Dan.7:8 until he comes into full power over them and the rest of the ten horns/kings which are left will give their power and authority to the beast for one reason; to destroy Mystery Babylon Rev.17;16 and Israel next in Rev.12] Dan 8:25b. he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. In [Rev.19:11-21]
[The antichrist will come from one of the four kingdoms of the Grecian Empire and that kingdom will be 8TH. head/kingdom ]
He is called an Assyrian in many scriptures. (Isaiah 10:24-34 (KJV) Therefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. 25For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. 26And the Lord of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt. 27And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. 28He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages: 29They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled. 30Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth. 31Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee. 32As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. 33Behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled. 34And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.
Isaiah 14:25; Micah 5:3-5; Rev. 19:11-21).
Isaiah 31:8 (KJV) Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sWord, not of a mighty man; and the sWord, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sWord, and his young men shall be discomfited. [ That mighty man will be Yahshua “Jesus” ]
Isaiah 42:13-14 (KJV) The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.
Isaiah 42:14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.
We can also see him coming out from Syria in Dan.11:40-44 which is spoken of as the kingdom of the north. Daniel 11:40-44 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him:[ The king of the south is Egypt.] and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. [The king of the north is Syria. Some people try to say the king of the north is Russia because he is the prince of Meshech and Tubal in Ezekiel 38:2.The reason that the antichrist is their prince is because he will have defeated them and brought them to the battle of Armageddon as a defeated nation and will have become their prince just as he will over the ten kingdoms when he becomes their prince. He goes away and defeats them in Dan.11:44. But the Prince over Meshech and Tubal is Apollyon in the Spirit Realm. So now we see that he comes from Syria which is within the old Grecian Empire terr. ,which is within the old Roman Empire territory. Which would make him a Muslims not a Roman/European. He will definitely be a Muslims And the Catholic Church will not control him as many teach.41He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.
[This is where the Sun clothed Woman /Israel will flee during the last 3 ½ years of tribulation Rev. 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of Eloheem (God), that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.[The woman/Israel fled 1,260 days , 3 ½ years or fourty two months] Daniel 11:42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. [The kingdom of the south in Dan 11:40 ] 43But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps. Dan.11:44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: [The kingdoms of the north of this verse is Turkey ,Russia and some of the former Soviet Union Republics . This is more proof that the kingdom of the north in verse 40 cannot be Russia but Syria.] therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many. [ After he has defeated the kingdoms of the north and east which is probably China he will become their prince but the Prince of Meshech and Tubal Ezekiel 39:1-2. Is Apollyon.By this we see the Beast with Assyrian Blood . So we must ask ourselves why will Jews except him as the Messiah? The answer is that he will be born and raised in Palestine Bethlehem but will have Assyrian Blood most likely unknown to the Jews. There will be such great Tumult in the World and in Palestine it will be even worse.Islam will be against Islam,the Jews and the world. This Al Mahadi will have the answers and will be able to unite the Islamic Nations to peace and deceive Israel by Peace “he shall destroy many”. He will be the Islamic Al Mahadi and the supposed Jewish Messiah from Bethlehem.Islamic nations never intend to keep a peace treaty only to use it for their advantage until they can overpower those in whom they have agreed with
The Islamic Jihad
Part#3 The 2nd.Beast
Rev. 13:11 (KJV)
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.
The second beast is a specific individual that has power over A religious institution. . . . it is more likely that the singular phrase “beast” (thērion) or “false prophet” (pseudoprophētēs ) refers to an individual of a religious institution. Moreover, because he spends eternity in the lake of fire (Revelation 19:20+; 20:10+), the false prophet is characterized as possessing an eternal soul. Such an attribute and eternal fate is descriptive of individuals rather than institutions. [emphasis added]6
Rev. 16:13 (KJV)
And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
This lets us know that the Beast is possessed of Demon spirits.
So we must see the 2nd. Beast as three things
1. Man
2. Possessed by spirits
3. 2 Religious institution’s
· 1. two horns
The mention of horns in conjunction with a Lamb points to the vision of the throne room prior to the opening of the first seal where John saw “a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven yes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth” (Rev. 5:6b+). Horns frequently symbolize power. The Lamb has seven, the number of completeness. This beast has two, the number of witness, for he shall serve as the ultimate witness to the first beast.
The two Horns are a symbol of two different religious systems that will unite together in the end of days .
· 2. like a lamb
Paul warned of Satan’s “ministers,” false apostles and deceitful workers which follow Satan’s pattern and transform themselves into apostles of Christ (2Cor. 11:13-15).
There have been many false apostles and deceitful workers since then and especially toward the time of the end, but none more convincing and containing such contrast as this False Prophet of the end. His appearance as a lamb shows us who he actually is the Lamb is symbolic of Jesus or in this case a false Jesus..
]
· 3. spoke like a dragon
Although he looks like a lamb, his verbal instructions are energized by the will of the dragon (Rev. 12:2-4+, 17+; 13:4+). It is he who causes worship of the Beast. He tells those who dwell on the earth to make the image of the Beast. He is also the enforcer of the mark required in order to buy or sell. His speech like a dragon is an allusion to the introduction of deception into the human race in the Garden: “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made.
And he said to the woman, ‘Has God indeed said . . . ?’ ” [emphasis added] (Gen. 3:1). Like the serpent, his mouth will be employed in opposition to God’s “True” Word.
We must first understand that the two Horns on the false Prophet are symbolic of two major religions that will be prominent during the Tribulation.
These two must have similarities for them to unite together.
· 4. I would like to focus on
1. Shia –Islam
2. Catholicism
· 5. You might say how can The Roman Catholic Church be similar to Islam?
We must first understand what the Catholic church believe about Allah and salvation for Islam.
“841 The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day.
847 This affirmation is not aimed at those who, through no fault of their own, do not know Christ and his Church: Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation.”
Now lets look at Islam. Islam holds Jesus (Arabic: عيسى `Īsā) to have been a messenger and a prophet of God and the Messiah (The concept of prophecy in Islam is broader than Judaism and Christianity since Muslims distinguish between "messengers" (ar: rasul) and "prophets" (ar: nabi). Unlike prophets, messengers are given a message/scripture (ar: risalah) in book form. All messengers are prophets but not vice versa) [1] According to the Qur'an, Jesus was one of God's most beloved messengers, a precursor to Muhammad [2], and was sent to guide the Children of Israel
· 6. The Al Mahadi rightful ruler of all Islam
In the Twelver school of Shi`ite Islam, the Mahdī is believed to have been an historical figure identified with the Twelfth Imām, Muhammad al-Mahdī, and is therefore called al-Imām al-Mahdī. It is believed that he is still present on earth "in occultation" (i.e., hidden), and will emerge again in the end times.
Those Shi`ites of this school believe that the Imām Mahdī is the rightful ruler of the whole Islamic community (ummah) at any given time, and he is therefore also called Imām al-Zamān, meaning "Imām of the Age."
Muḥammad al-Mahdī (born 868) (Arabic: محمد المهدى ) is the twelfth and final Shi'a Imam. He is the person believed by Shi'as to be the Mahdi; a figure considered by both Sunnis and Shias to be the ultimate saviour of humankind. Shi'as and Sunnis differ on the identity of the Mahdi, with Shi'as believing that he was born in 868 and has been hidden by God (referred to as occultation) to later emerge to fulfill his mission. Sunnis either believe that he is yet to be born, or that he was born recently and has yet to emerge.
Whatever the case, both groups believe that he will bring absolute peace and justice throughout the world by establishing Islam as the global religion. As such, the person Allah and account of Muhammad al-Mahdi in this article is one that is believed only by Shi'as. Shi'as believe that when Muhammad al-Mahdi will reappear, the prophet Isa (Jesus) will also reappear and that he will pray behind al-Mahdi. In other words Jesus will declare that the Al Mahdi is the Messiah .
They are to both to go to Jerusalem .Jesus is to Declare that he is not the son of God/Allah and that all are to worship the Al Mahdi and all that don’t will be put to Death. Jesus is to declare that he never claimed to be the son of God/Alah and wasn’t rersurrected from the dead but rather was caught up in bodily form to Heaven..
The name Jaysh al-Mahdī has apocalyptic connotations to a Muslim's ear: in Islamic theology, the Mah'dī is an end-times figure who it is said will assist the Masīh - Masih is the Arabic name for Messiah. In modern Arabic it is used as one of the many titles of Isa, ((عيسى `Īsā).). Masih is most often used by Christian Arabs as well as Muslims, and is written as Yasu' al-Masih (يسوع المسيح Yasū`a al-Masīħ) or Isa al-masih. The word Masih literally means "promised one", and Isa or Yasu' al-masih is believed to be the provider of salvation to humankind. Thus Arabic-speaking Christians refer to destroy the Dajjāl { (Arabic: دجّال)-Jesus)- ("The Deceiver/impostor/quack"[1]) is an evil figure in Islamic eschatology, who will appear before Yaum al-Qiyamah. Yawm al-Qīyāmah (Arabic: يوم القيامة literally: "Day of the Resurrection") is the Arabic name for the Last Judgement. Belief in Qiyâmah is part of Aqidah and is a fundamental tenet of faith in Islam. The trials and tribulations of Qiyâmah are detailed in both the Qur'an and the Hadith, as well as in the commentaries of the Islamic expositors and scholarly authorities such as al-GhazAllah, Ibn Kathir, Ibn Majah, Muhammad al-Bukhari, and Ibn Khuzaimah who explain them in detail. Every human, Muslim and non-Muslim Allahke, is held accountable for his or her deeds and are judged by Allah accordingly (Qur'an 74.38). Al-Qiyâmah is the 75th sura of the Qur'an.
"Dajjal" in itself is a commonly use Arabic word, "Dajjals" could refer to "False prophets". "Al-Dajjal" on the other hand translates to "The Impostor", refering to a specific end-of time deceiver.[1]} } Dajjal will apear before Yaum al-Qiyamah and establish a global Islamic khilāfah in preparation for the Yaum al Qiyāmah; in more familiar terms, it is believed that the Mahdī will come to help the Messiah (i.e., Jesus, referred to in Islam as `Īsā ibn Mariyam) to defeat the Antichrist (literally, al-Masīh al
Dajjāl means "the Deceiving Messiah"), before establishing a just Islamic social order in
preparation for Judgement Day.
Islam believes that Jesus `Īsā ibn Mariyam) will come to anounce the arrival of the Imām al-Zamān,-Mahdi ) or the Islamic Messiah
Then the two will go to Jerusalem and Kill the “supposed “ False Prophets and Kill Jews.
The two that will be slain and fulfill this in the word of God is the two witness in Rev.12. The
Beast / Imām al-Zamān,-Mahdi )and the False Prophet `Īsā ibn Mariyam) (Masih )will
portray the two witness as the Dajjal’s because of they will proclaim to be Prophets of
YHWH they will make war with them and slay them in the end of the tribulation.
Thus these two Al Mahadi and the `Īsā ibn Mariyam) “the The False Mesiah and False
Prophet” which wll be the Beast and the False Prophet of Rev.13 these will have one mind.
Rev.17:13
They have one mind to Destroy The US and Israel so the Mahdi CAN RULE. To get a true
understanding of 1st. why the Shi'i Muslims are so against the US from occupying or forming a
Democracy and why they hate her so much we must understand Muslim Prophecy, We will go
back to their false prophet Muhammad .When Muhammad died he left no successor for Allah
,The tradition came the Doctrine of the 12 (Muhammad said "The Imams after me will be twelve
in number, of whom nine will be from the progeny of Husayn. Moreover, the Mahdi of this
community will be among us.
Anyone who holds on to them after me holds on to the rope of God; and whoever abandons
them has abandoned God." [12])The Doctrine of the 12 was the decedents of Muhammad one of them would be the Muslim Messiah and be the -Mahdi. Prophecy states that one of the 12 would be the Mahdi but it was unknown which one .The Shi'i hold this doctrine because the 12 where Shi'i Muslims. So the Sunni Muslims killed the first 11 and was a going to kill the 12th. To prove this prophecy false. It just so happens that the 12th. Was hid away and was never fount. Since the first 11 where dead then they couldn’t be the Messiah but they believe the 12th. Will come back as the Messiah and was to come to the Muslim Temple that was Destroyed by the Sunnis because they don’t want a Shi'i Messiah and if the Temple was Destroyed then this Prophecy could not come to past. It just so happens though that the Shi'i blame the destruction of the Temple on the US because they believe that the US is trying to stop the -Mahdi from coming .This is the true reason for the insurgents and also as long as the US controls that Territory the Mahdi cannot take power so they will have to Destroy the US so the Allah- Mahdi can Rule.Though the Sunnis will be divided over the Beast/Allah-Mahdi/Gog the vizer of assur or The head of state for the Muslims “see Gog in ancient Summarian. who is the vizier of Assur. “Assur” was the Assyrians father of the gods. “Whom we would call Satan”.Viezer means the muslims head of state or ruler. When you put this together it reads “ Gog is the Muslims ruler/head of state for Satan”.
Main article: Islamic view of Jesus' death
Muslims believe he was rescued and raised bodily. Some Muslims believe God then transformed another person, probably Judas Iscariot or Simon of Cyrene, to appear exactly like Jesus to deceive the Romans and be crucified in Jesus' stead. The basis of this belief is following verse from Qur'an
And their saying: Surely we have killed the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, the messenger of Allah; and they did not kill him nor did they crucify him, but it appeared to them so (like Jesus) and most surely those who differ therein are only in a doubt about it; they have no knowledge respecting it, but only follow a conjecture, and they killed him not for sure. Nay! Allah took him up to Himself; and Allah is Mighty, Wise.These two men will be the False prophet and the Beast.
· 7. Both Islam and Catholicism lift Mary to a higher level than just a normal woman.
Muslims believe in the virgin birth of Jesus through Mary, which is recounted throughout several passages in the Qur'an. In the Qur'anic story an angel appears before Mary to announce her the gift of a holy son. Mary is surprised and answers the angel that she is virgin. The angel replies "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us':It is a matter (so) decreed...when He determines a matter, He only says to it, 'Be', and it is." (19:21, 19:35) The Qur'an rejects the idea that virgin birth implies that Jesus is divine - the example of Adam 3:59 is used in argument against such belief. Sahih Bukhari records that John was a cousin to Jesus.[8] Soon after his birth, Jesus speaks as an infant to defend Mary from accusations of adultery.
Qur'an, 21:91And she (Mary) who guarded her chastity, so We breathed into her of Our Spirit and made her and her son a sign for the nations.
When any human being is born. Satan touches him at both sides of the body with his two fingers, except Jesus, the son of Mary, whom Satan tried to touch but failed, for he touched the placenta-cover instead. Sahih Bukhari 4:54:506
The Virgin Mary in Islam ("Maryam" in Arabic) is the mother of Jesus (Arabic Isa). Jesus is considered by Muslims to be one of the prophets of Islam
According to the Qur'an, Isa was born miraculously without a human biological father by the will of Allah (God). His mother is among the most saintly, pious, chaste, and virtuous women ever and a respected figure in Islam. The Qur'an quite decisively declares that Jesus was the result of a virgin birth. In the Qur'an, no other woman is given more attention than the Virgin Mary. In fact, the nineteenth sura of the Qur'an is named after her and is about her life. Of the Qur'an's 114 suras, she is among only eight people who have a sura named after them. Mary is also the only woman specifically named in the Qur'an. In Islam, she is generally referred to as Maryam, Umm Isa (Mary, the mother of Jesus). For Muslims, the Virgin Mary is viewed as both an example and a sign for all people
The Mahdi, according to majority Sunni and Shi'ite tradition, will arise at some point before the day of judgement, institute a kingdom of justice, and will in the last days fight alongside the returned Jesus against the Dajjal, the Antichris
The 6th Shi'a Imam, Jafar al-Sadiq, said:
"Before the appearance of the one who will rise, peace be upon him, the people will be reprimanded for their acts of disobedience by a fire that will appear in the sky and a redness that will cover the sky. It will swallow up Baghdad, and will swallow up Kufa. Their blood will be shed and houses destroyed. Death will occur amid their people and a fear will come over the people of Iraq from which they shall have no rest."
A loud call from the sky signals the Mahdi's appearance.
The Mehdi will be a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad. It is said he will also be a descendant of Israel, but will have the skin of an Arab. He will be from the Hejaz region.
· 9. As a Lamb -
In Catholicism the Pope is considered to be the Vicar of Christ.
Or in other words a (substitute) of Christ on the earth, wielding universal power over the whole church? Here is what the catechism says
"For the Roman Pontiff, by reason of his office as Vicar of Christ, and as pastor of the entire Church has full, supreme, and universal power over the whole Church, a power which he can always exercise unhindered." Pg. 234, #882 "The Roman Pontiff... as supreme pastor and teacher of all the faithful..." Pg. 235, #891
Or in other words equal to Jesus.
According to Catholic doctrine, the Pope is infallible in matters of doctrine, faith and morals.
"In order to preserve the Church in the purity of the faith handed on by the apostles, Christ who is Truth willed to confer on her a share in his own infallibility. By a supernatural sense of faith the People of God, under the guidance of the Church's living magisterium, unfailingly adheres to this faith." Pg. 235, #889
This is the reason for the “ Lamb” in other words the Pope is and will be the false Lamb of God.
Look for the Pope during the tribulation or before to begin to proclaim that he is Christ .
Catholicism will begin to court Islam and will be openly against the war on Terror and Islam.
Now lets look and see what Islam has to say about Jesus .
Islam believes that Jesus `Īsā ibn Mariyam) will come to anounce the arrival of the Imām al-Zamān,-Mahdi ) or the Islamic Messiah.They believe that He will proclaim that he was only a Prophet of Allah-God and that he never claimed to be God or diety.That he will proclaim that the Islamic Messiah Imām al-Zamān,-Mahdi ) is the true Messiah .Then the two will go to Jerusalem and Kill the “supposed “ False Prophets and Kill Jews. Rev.12
· 10. What does Islam say about the infidel or Heretics
The Qur'an says:
A "Fight and slay the pagans [Christians] wherever ye find them and seize them, confine them, and lie in wait for them in every place of ambush" (Surah 9:5)
B "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the last day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and his apostle nor acknowledge the religion of truth of the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians) until they pay the Jizya [tax on non-Muslims] with willing submission and feel themselves subdued." (Surah 9:29)
C "Those who follow Muhammad are merciless for the unbelievers but kind to each other." (Qur'an 48:29)
D "Enmity and hatred will reign between us until ye believe in Allah alone." (Qur'an 60:4)
E Say to the Unbelievers, if (now) they desist (from Unbelief), their past would be forgiven them; but if they persist, the punishment of those before them is already (a matter of warning for them). And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God altogether and everywhere; but if they cease, verily God doth see all that they do. (Qur'an 8:37-39)
F And fight them on until there is no more Tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God; but if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who practice oppression. (Qur'an 2:193)
G "Fight the unbelievers in your surroundings, and let them find harshness in you." (Qur'an 9:123)
· 11. What does Catholicism say about the Christians whom they believe are Heretics/ Infidels
The Catholic Cannon law says
The last punishment is death sometimes by the sword,--more commonly by fire.
This the last of four decretals respecting heresy are quoted from JUS CANONICUM, Gregorii IX. But Gregorii IX ain't the only pope to make the Catholic position clear. Let's look at Pope Honorius:
"And all heretics, of both sexes and of every name, we damn [I thought that God does this] to perpetual infamy; we declare hostility against them; we account them accursed, and their goods confiscated; nor can they ever enjoy their property, or their children succeed to their inheritance [punishing the children!]; inasmuch as they grievously offend against the Eternal as well as the temporal king [the pope]."
source: Quinta Compilatio Epistolarum DecretAllahum Honorii III. P.M. Innocentii Cironii, Juris Utriusque Professoris, Canonici ac Ecclesiae, et Academae Tolosannae Cancellarii, Comp. v. tit. iv. cap. i. p. 200; Tolosae, 1645.
You might say, "But the Catholic religion is different today." It cannot be for you see, it claims that it is infallible, my friend. This is the cornerstone of the Roman monster's power. What does "infallible" mean? According to my Webster's: incapable of error; never wrong. This can never be changed.
So this Spirit is lying dormant until the time it will be awakened and will slay Christians and Jews Again.
· 12. Islam is oneness
"For he who believes in the Trinity, "the Fire will be his abode … a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemer." Qur'an (5:72-73)
· 13.Catholicism is oneness
“The Church is one because of her source, the blessed Trinity--the unity of the Trinity of Persons of one God: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit .” (#813; Cf. Vatican II, Unitatis redintegratio, 5)
Catholics believe Islam serves the same God as they do.
· 14.Catholicism and Shia -Islam both worship Idols and man
First we all know that Catholics worship Idols but are unaware of Islam worshiping Idols or man.
The following is from a Suni muslim site [http://www.answeringchristianity.com/refuting_shia_blasphemies.htm
"( Quran, 33:30-34) 30. O wives of the Prophet! Whoever of you commits an open illegal sexual intercourse, the torment for her will be doubled, and that is ever easy for Allah. 31. And whosoever of you is obedient to Allah and His Messenger SAW , and does righteous good deeds, We shall give her, her reward twice over, and We have prepared for her Rizqan Karima (a noble provision Paradise). 32. O wives of the Prophet! You are not like any other women. If you keep your duty (to Allah), then be not soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease (of hypocrisy, or evil desire for adultery, etc.) should be moved with desire, but speak in an honourable manner.
33. And stay in your houses, and do not display yourselves like that of the times of ignorance, and perform As-Salat (IqamatasSalat), and give Zakat and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah wishes only to remove ArRijs (evil deeds and sins, etc.) from you, O members of the family (of the Prophet SAW), and to purify you with a thorough purification. 34. And remember (O you the members of the Prophets family, the Graces of your Lord), that which is recited in your houses of the Verses of Allah and AlHikmah (i.e. Prophets Sunnah legal ways, etc. so give your thanks to Allah and glorify His Praises for this Quran and the Sunnah). Verily, Allah is Ever Most Courteous, Well Acquainted with all things. (The Noble Quran, 33:30-34)"
Now to the ordinary reader, there seems to be no problem in the Noble Verses above. But unfortunately, the Shias consider Noble Verse 33:33 to be the greatest Noble Verse to them, because they misuse it and misinterpret it to support their blasphemies and idol-worship of Ali and the rest of Ahlul-Bayt. It is claimed or believed that Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, declared that him, Ali, Fatima (his daughter), Hasan and Hussein were the ones who got purified by Allah Almighty and that the "People of the House of the Prophet" (Ahlul-Bayt) are only limited to those individuals, and therefore, after Prophet Muhammad died, Ali should've been the very next Islamic Caliph. The Shias exclude all of Prophet Muhammad's wives from Noble Verse 33:33.
To me, Noble verses 33:30-34 clearly include Prophet Muhammad's wives. They are speaking about Prophet Muhammad's wives, the Prophet himself, his daughter Fatimah and her family (Ali, Hasan and Hussein). If we look at the first word in Noble Verse 33:34, which comes after 33:33, we would see "Wa uthkurun", which is a feminine plural to "uthkur". In Arabic male plurals can be for either males only or a mix of males and females. But the female plurals are only specific and limited to females and not to anything else. So what this means is that Noble Verse 33:33 was talking about Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, his wives, his daughter and her family, since the plural, "aankum" ("from you" in Arabic) in Noble Verse 33:33, is not a feminine one. So we know for sure that there are at least one male and at least two females in this group. Of course, the plural could also be for males only, but since both Sunnis and Shias agree that there is at least one female, then the possibility of females is there.
Now whether or not Ahlul-Bayt in Noble Verse 33:33 included the Prophet's wives, Ali (the Prophet's cousin), Fatimah (the Prophet's daughter), and/or Hasan and Hussein (Ali's and Fatimah's two sons) is really irrelevant, because in the following Noble Verses we will clearly see that all of the true Believers are also purified in the same exact manner as Ahlul-Bayt were purified. So there is nothing GODly or super-special about Ahlul-Bayt, and it is absolutely wrong to seek them in prayers as intermediaries between the person and GOD Almighty.
The Shias interpretation of the Noble Verse 33:33 had been soundly refuted above. Their blasphemous elating of the Ahlul Bayt is no more than an idol worship to them. They fail to realize that Allah Almighty did warn the Muslims from the likes of them in the Noble Quran:
"They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of God, and (they take as their Lord) Christ the son of Mary; yet they were commanded to worship but One God: there is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him). (The Noble Quran, 9:31)"
I therefore say the following:
"They take ahlul bayt to be their lords in derogation of God, and (they take as their Lord) ALI (their CHRIST) the son of Abi-Talib, yet they were commanded to worship but One God: there is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him). (My application of Noble Verse 9:31 on the blasphemous shias)"
So "Ya Ali Madad" (O Ali Help) is clearly an absurd prayer especially when neither him or his son Hussein could help themselves from death when they did not want to die. Not only that, but his oldest son, Hasan, is considered as a "coward" by some Shias, as I was personally told, for not revenging for his father. Hasan is Ali's son and Prophet Muhammad's grand son and he is one who was supposed to be perfect, sinless and infallible according to the Shia's twisted beliefs, since he was part of the Ahlul-Bayt when Noble Verse 33:33 came down. ]
We must look at the number of adherents, Catholicism and Islam each exceed one billion, nearly all of whom enter their respective faiths as infants. More than 16 million babies are baptized into the Roman Catholic Church each year. It's a family thing. My sisters and I were baptized as Catholics because our parents were Catholics, and they and their siblings were baptized into the Church because their parents were Catholics. That's the primary way the faith is propagated. Practically speaking, although baptism is not part of Islam, all children born into a Muslim family are Muslims. Their official "confirmation" follows as soon as they are able to confess the shahada ("There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is his messenger"). This baby-oriented process for increasing their ranks has been a motivating factor in the Vatican/Saudi-sponsored lobby against UN endeavours to introduce contraception and other methods of population control, especially in third-world countries.
Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world today; Catholicism is the largest religious body among those professing to be Christian. If the number of followers was a good measure for selecting a religion, then Islam and Catholicism would definitely be the way to go. However, the Bible has no such yardstick. Rather, Jesus said, "[W]ide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat. Because strait is the gate and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" (Matthew 7:13,14). Most people are aware of the veneration and even worship of Mary found among Roman Catholics, but not many know that much the same deference exists among Muslims. A chapter in the Qur'an is named after Mary ("Surah Maryam").From the outskirts of Cairo to Bombay to Medjugorje in Bosnia-Herzegovina, hundreds of thousands of the Islamic faith have congregated wherever processions carry her statues and where her apparitions are said to have appeared. She is esteemed above the most revered women of the Muslim faith, including Muhammad's two favorite wives, Khadija and Aisha, and his daughter Fatima. The hadith teaches that Muhammad selected Mary as his first wife upon entrance into Paradise (for more about Mary and Islam see "Mary Who?" in TBC 10/00). One of the most popular Catholic apparitions of Mary is referred to as Our Lady of Fatima.
· \Catholic and Islamic prayers have many similarities.
For the Muslim, praying to Allah five times a day is altogether an act of obedience, and the prayers are always repetitive. As one former Muslim puts it, "It's hardly intimate communication with Allah;...it's done more to escape the punishment due to those who neglect prayer." Most prayers prayed by Catholics are also rote and repetitive, saying the rosary being the best example. Repeating 16 "Our Father's" and 153 "Hail Mary's" is far from personal communication. Furthermore, when a Catholic goes to confession the priest assigns rosaries as severe punishment, or penance, for one's sins.
Prayer beads were a part of Islamic devotion to Allah long before an apparition of the Blessed Lady taught St. Dominic to pray the rosary beads in the thirteenth century. Prayer beads, by the way, are a stock item in ancient and modern paganism. On an ironic note, Catholic Church historians credit the prayers of members of the Confraternity of the Rosary for a major naval victory over the Turks, which "saved Europe from the Mohammedan peril."
· Catholics and Muslims regard pilgrimages as a means of obtaining favor from
God. The hadj, one of the five pillars of Islam, is a required (one-time) journey to Mecca. For Catholics, pilgrimages historically have been acts of religious purification, often induced by the promise of indulgences. Multi-millions of Catholics travel yearly to hundreds of shrines (nearly all dedicated to Mary) located throughout the world. The Crusades were indulgence-stimulated attempts to regain Jerusalem from the infidel Muslims in order to re-establish Catholic pilgrimages. Incidentally, the Church of Rome offered the crusaders full pardon from purgatory should they die trying to liberate the Holy Land. Similarly, Islam offers rewards in and assurance of Paradise to those who die in religious battles (jihad), including suicide bombings.
· Roman Catholicism recognizes Allah as the God of the Bible.
In 1985, Pope John Paul II declared to an enraptured audience of thousands of Muslim youths, "Christians and Muslims, we have many things in common as believers and as human beings....We believe in the same God, the one and only God, the living God...." ."Pope Benedict XV1’s He expressed his "profound respect for the great religions, particularly for Muslims, who worship the one God and with whom we are committed to defending and promoting together social justice, moral values, peace and freedom for all humanity Consider carefully the above quote (taken from what the Roman Catholic Church claims is an infallible council) and you will realize what truly binds Catholicism and Islam together: They both have a Jesus who cannot save their souls.
The Qur'an teaches that Jesus did not die on the cross: "And because of [the Jews] saying, We slew the Messiah Jesus son of Mary, Allah's messenger They slew him not nor crucified, but it appeared so unto them; and lo! those who disagree concerning it are in doubt thereof; they have no knowledge thereof save pursuit of a conjecture; they slew him not for certain" (Sura 4:157). Vatican II may give Muslims credit for "venerating" Jesus, but in fact, it's a bogus Jesus. Sadly, Catholicism also has a false Christ. It teaches that His death on the cross was not sufficient for our salvation. Not only must His sacrifice (which, according to the Scriptures, was offered only once to take away our sins completely [Hebrews 9:28]) be "re-presented" as a daily sacrifice for sins on altars around the world, but Catholics must expiate their own sins through sufferings here on earth and in purgatory.
· Works salvation
Finally, Vatican II spells out clearly what Islam and Catholicism regard as their hope for salvation: "...they highly esteem an upright life and worship God, especially by way of prayer, alms-deeds and fasting.".
In Islam, a person is accountable for every thought, word, and deed. His or her life is to be lived according to what is pleasing to Allah as found in the Qur'an and the hadith. In addition, there is shari'a, which is the body of rules that attempts to cover the totality of Islamic religious, political, social and domestic life. Breaking such laws involves various forms of temporal punishment. At the Last Judgment Allah will determine one's eternal destiny as He places one's good and evil works on the divine scale: "Then those whose scales are heavy [with good deeds], they are the successful. And those whose scales are light are those who lose their souls, in hell abiding" (Sura 23:102,103). The hadith vividly describes the tortures of hell.
James McCarthy, produced a video titled Catholicism: Crisis of Faith in which he interviews about a dozen people leaving Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York. He simply asks them on what basis they expect to get to heaven. Only one made any reference to Jesus. The overwhelming response was that they felt they were pretty good people, and were fairly confident that their good deeds outweighed their bad ones.
Although the Catholic Church states that it is only by God's grace that one can enter heaven, it becomes very clear that what is meant is that grace is required to enable one to do the works which qualify one for heaven.
According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, they "obtain the joy of heaven, as God's eternal reward for the good works accomplished with the grace of Christ" (par 1821) and they "can merit for [them]selves and for others all the graces needed to attain eternal life" (par 2027).
Pope John Paul II addressed a Catholic community in Turkey with these words: "I wonder if it is now urgent, precisely today when Christians and Muslims have entered a new period of history, to recognize and develop the spiritual bonds that unite us."
So we can see by this three important revelations about the False Prophet and the religion in which the Beast is from.
1. We can see why Catholicism will embrace Islam and Islam will embrace Catholicism.
2. We can see as well how the Pope will fill the role of Jesus .
3. We can see why the worshiping of the Beast and his Image will be in Islam and Catholicism.
The first Beast or Al Mahadi will be a Shia Muslim .
We can see the connection of the Al mahadi “which will be possessed by Apollyon/Apollo” and with the Pope in the Vatican.The most celebrated statue of of Apollo the Apollo Belvedere, a marble statue is located in no other place but the Belvedere of the Vatican.
Recently, Iranian President Ahmaddinejad's stated he is looking forward to the coming of an Islamic messiah--the Madhi--12th Imam that will lead the world to an era of universal peace. This prophecy, is similiar to the return of our Lord Jesus at the end of the age. Is this a common Islamic prophecy or just limited to the Shiite sect? Can this phophecy be found in Koran or Hadith?
Islam's koran states that Jesus is going to kill all those who worshipped Him as God, i.e. the Christians. The Rapture is going to remove Christians from Earth. The he of 2Thes.2:7-8
Then the Beast or Al Mahadi will be revealed .Thus the muslims would see this event not necessarily as something bad - they would see it as what their book has foretold.
The Christians would be gone judged, i.e. killed and cast into the lake of fire. This would empower them. This would prove to them that allah is moving and they are being given favor.
IRAN SAYS 2007 COULD BRING ISLAMIC MESSIAH, POSSIBLY THIS SPRING
joeBybb By Joel Rosenberg
The New Year may not be so happy if Iranian leaders have their way. The Islamic Messiah known as the "Twelfth Imam" or the "Mahdi" may come to earth in 2007 and could be revealed to the world as early as the Spring Equinox, reports an official Iranian government news website. The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) website says the world is now in its "last days." It claims that the Mahdi will first appear in Mecca, and then Medina. He will conquer all of Arabia, Syria, Iraq, destroy Israel, and then set up a "global government" based in Iraq, interestingly enough, not Iran. Such Islamic eschatology (end times theology) is driving the Iranian regime and helps explains why Iran has no interest in helping the U.S. and E.U. create peace in Iraq or the region, much less in ending its bid for nuclear weapons, the Iraq Study Group Report notwithstanding.
Anticipation of the imminent arrival or "illumination" of the Islamic Messiah has been steadily intensifying inside Iran since Mahmoud Ahmadinejad emerged as president of the country in June of 2005. A television series on IRIB called "The World Towards Illumination" has been running since last November to help answer the many questions Iranians have about the end of the world as we know it. The series explains the signs of the last days and what to expect when the Islamic Messiah arrives. The program also says that Jesus is coming back to earth soon as a Shiite Muslim leader and it denounces "born again Christians" for supporting "the illegal Zionist state of Israel." An Israeli news site was the first to pick up the story and its significance to Israeli national security, noting that the Mahdi will soon "form an army to defeat Islam's enemies in a series of apocalyptic battles" and "will overcome his archvillain in Jerusalem." Some intelligence analysts are growing concerned by Ahmadinejad's announced plans "to hold the big celebration of Iran's full nuclearization in the current year." Iran's calendar year ends on March 20, which is the usual date of the Spring Equinox. Is Ahmadinejad signaling that Iran will have nuclear weapons by then?
Is he suggesting that an apocalyptic war to annihilate Jews and Christians in Israel and the U.S. could come in 2007, perhaps as early as this spring or summer? It is not yet clear, though Ahmadinejad today vowed to "humiliate" the U.S. and continues to vow that Israel will "vanish" soon. The IRIB series is important in that it offers some intriguing clues as to how Iranian Shiites believe their prophecies will play out. "After [the Twelfth Imam's] uprising from Mecca all of Arabia will be submit to him and then other parts of the world as he marches upon Iraq and established his seat of global government in the city of Kufa. Then the Imam will send 10 thousand of his forces to the east and west to uproot the oppressors. At this time God will facilitate things for him and lands will come under his control one after the other....He will appear as a handsome young man, clad in neat clothes and exuding the fragrance of paradise. His face will glow with love and kindness for the human beings....He has a radiant forehead, black piercing eyes and a broad chest. He very much resembles his ancestor Prophet Mohammad. Heavenly light and justice accompany him. He will overcome enemies and oppressors with the help of God, and as per the promise of the Almighty the Mahdi will eradicate all corruption and injustice from the face of the earth and establish the global government of peace, justice and equity."
The TV series notes that "in our discussion of the world in the last days of the earth we had said in our previous editions of this programme that no source has pointed to the exact date when the Savior will appear and only God knows about the exact timing of the reappearance of Imam Mahdi....There are various versions of the exact day of his reappearance. Some say it would be Friday and the date will be Ashura or the 10th of Moharram, the heart-rending martyrdom anniversary of his illustrious ancestor, Imam Husain. Others say the date will be the 25th of the month of Zil-Qa’dah and may coincide with the Spring Equinox or Nowrooz as the Iranians call. A saying attributed to the Prophet’s 6th infallible heir, Imam Ja’far Sadeq (PBUH) says the Mahdi will appear on the Spring Equinox and God will make him defeat Dajjal the Impostor or the anti-Christ as the Christians say, who will be hanged near the dump of Kufa." Before the Islamic Messiah appears to the world, IRIB reports, "a pious person...a venerable God-fearing individual from Iran" meets with the Mahdi. This individual will pledge allegiance to the Mahdi as he "fights oppression and corruption and enters Iraq to lift the siege of Kufa and holy Najaf and to defeat the forces of [Islam's enemies] in Iraq." It is not clear whether the program is referring to President Ahmadinejad or someone to come.
Shiite Islamic scholars also say Jesus is coming back to Earth soon. He will not, however, come as the Son of God or even as a leader but will serve as a deputy to the Mahdi to destroy the infidels, they say. "We read in the book Tazkarat ol-Olia, 'the Mahdi will come with Jesus son of Mary accompanying him,'" the series explains. "This indicates that these two great men are complement each other. Imam Mahdi will be the leader while Prophet Jesus will act as his lieutenant in the struggle against oppression and establishment of justice in the world." Too many Western analysts are missing the central importance of Shiite eschatology in Iranian foreign policy. They mistakenly believe that Iran's current leadership can be somehow cajoled into making peace with the West. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his cadre of loyal mullahs are not being driven by the same goals and aspirations as are the diplomats in Washington, Brussels or at the United Nations. The President of Iran and his team fervently believe the Islamic Messiah is coming back soon, possibly as soon as this Spring. They are convinced that their divine mission is to create the conditions for the Mahdi's return. As a result, they are committed to instigating more anti--American violence in Iraq, not less. They are determined to obtain nuclear weapons at all costs, not negotiate away their atomic research and development program.
What's more, they are deeply committed to building political and military alliances with anti-Western powers, not finding accomodation with the West. Missed by some observers in Ahmadinejad's speech at the U.N. was his call to the "mighty Lord" to hasten the emergence of "the promised one," the one who "will fill this world with justice and peace." Who stands in the Mahdi's way? A top priority of Ahmadinejad is "to challenge America, which is trying to impose itself as the final salvation of the human being, and insert its unjust state [in the region]," says Hamidreza Taraghi, head of the conservative Islamic Coalition Society.
Taraghi says the U.S. is "trying to place itself as the new Mahdi." This may mean no peace with Iran, he adds, "unless America changes its hegemonic ... thinking, doesn't use nuclear weapons, [or] impose its will on other nations." Bottom line: the leaders of Iran are preparing for an apocalyptic war with the U.S. and Israel. It's not a question of "if" but "when." The sooner the White House and our new Congressional leaders realize this and take decisive action to stop this nuclear nightmare, the better.

Ahmadinejad: God told me we would win
Iranian president says has been in touch with God, who reassured him Tehran victory against West is guaranteed Dudi Cohen
While the West is preparing to impose sanctions on Iran, due to the country's failure to suspend its nuclear activities, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is still optimistic. "We shall win," he was quoted in the Iranian media as saying Monday, and added: "One day I will be asked whether I have been in touch with someone who told me we would win, and I will respond: 'Yes, I have been in touch with God'."
"We must not be afraid of them," he stated, hinting to the western countries. Ahmadinejad also noted that although he was at times mocked for his preoccupation with spiritual matters and his use of "divine" words," he was nevertheless certain that Iran would prevail, after having secured the support of international public opinion for its cause.
Meanwhile, Iranian news agencies reported Monday that Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi addressed the possibility of an attack on Iran and said, “If Americans and Zionists want to try their luck in Iran, they will experience a larger defeat than in Iraq.”
Safavi added during a memorial service held at his headquarters: “We are obligated to our fallen to maintain the readiness and deal a powerful blow on the enemies in case of an attack.
“The Basij (branch of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps) and the Revolutionary Guards are so strong they will not allow the enemy to even think of launching an operation against Iran,” he said.
“The blood of our shahids will bring about not only the liberation of Jerusalem and Karbala (Iraq) but the liberation of all mankind from the evil powers of the world; the blood of our shahids boiled the blood of Muslims in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Lebanon, and they will overcome the evil Americans and Israel.”

Part#4 Gog
Gog (Gaga)( Ezekiel 38-39
We Must understand that Gog is someone not a Place. Please note that it is Gog, “the chief prince,” who will invade the land of Israel, and that Magog is simply a “land” or of people whose soldiers will be one of the many armies under the direct command and leadership of Gog. In fact, it is also said in this scriptural passage that Gog will be “the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal” Therefore, we must be intellectually honest and distinguish the difference between Gog, a person, and Magog, a geographical land under the rulership of Gog: as well as in the Spiritual- Gog “an Eternal Being” –Magog its Origin.
Gog occurs as the name of the mysterious figure in Eze.38-39. It is a derivation From
Sumerian Gug “Gug”Which means shining “which is also used of angels
Job 38:7 (KJV) When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God
shouted for joy? ko-kawb'; probably from the same as Hebrew 3522 (Kabbown) (in
the sense of rolling) or Hebrew 3554 (kavah) (in the sense of blazing); a star (as round
or as shining); figurative a prince :- star ([-gazer]).
Sumerian Gug “Gug” IS the deity Gaga “Gaga” who is the vizier of Assur. “Assur” Which was the Assyrians father of the gods. “Whom we would call Satan”. Viezer means the Muslims head of state or ruler. When you put this together it reads “ Gog is the Muslims ruler for Satan”. We can as well find the answer who Gog is in Amos 7:1
First we will look at the traditional reading of Amos 7:1 which reads as follows:
Amos 7:1 (KJV) Thus hath the Lord God shewed unto me; and, behold, he formed grasshoppers in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings. Our English Bibles take there translation from the Masoretic text, a 9th century source. If we go back to an earlier translation of the Old Testament into Greek, known as the Septuagint, It gives us a different rending of Amos 7:1:"Thus the Lord showed me, and behold a swarm of locusts were coming, and behold, one of the young devastating locusts was Gog, the King." Amos 7:1 (LXX) The identification of Gog as the king of the locusts would have profound implications upon our understanding of Eze.38-39 we can read in Proverbs 30:27 (KJV) The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands; So this is telling us that the "locusts" of Amos 7 are not intended to be natural locusts, but an idiom for something else. We can find the answer in Revelation chapter 9 The locusts there are described as having a king or a Prince over them , which is clearly demonic in nature.
Rev. 9:3-11 (KJV) And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. [4] And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. [5] And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
[6] And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. [7] And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. [8] And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. [9] And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
[10] And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. [11] And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.
Gog is the Principality Apollyon who will Posses the Man Antichrist the Islamic Al Mahadi who then will become the Beast of Rev. 13 coming out of the sea or Abyss and out of the Abyss in Rev.9:3-11 as Apollyon . Apollyon name in Hebrew is Abaddon Abaddon is a Hebrew word signifying:
- ruin, destruction (Job 31:12);
- place of destruction; the Abyss, realm of the dead (Job 26:6; Proverbs 15:11); it occurs personified (Revelation 9:11) as Abaddon and is rendered in Greek by Apollyon, denoting the angel-prince of hell, the minister of death and author of havoc on earth. The Vulgate renders the Greek Apollyon by the Latin Exterminans (that is, "Destroyer"). The identity of Abaddon .
Apollo was the giver and the interpreter of laws. We can read that the beast will try to accomplish this in Daniel 7:25 (KJV) And he shall speak 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. Apollo was an orical speaking god or fallen prince. His sanctuary in Delphi became the most influential political and religious center of the world. He was also in control of the wars of the Grecians. The Greek term arche and its equivalent Lat translation principium, carries the basic meaning of primacy in time or rank. It is an abstract term for power and often used with the meaning of “sphere or authority’. This is power that is wielded by someone in a position of political, social or economic authority. Which will be the case with the beast or the prince that controls the antichrist “a man” . Arche can be used as a supernatural power ;good or evil which has control over Mortal human beings such as the antichrist.
Rev. 13:2 (KJV) And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
The Beast Has a Face of A Leopard meaning his head is the Leopard or the Grecian Empire and the Prince of the Grecian Empire. The Prince of Greece is Apollo or Apollyon.
Alexander the Great (Mortal man) is known in history as "The Son of Zeus ”same as- Apollo (immortal Spirit )
This proves 3 things
1st. That Gog (Gaga) is the Beast of Rev. 13 and 17.
2nd.That he is a Human Muslims leader
3rd. That he is the Prince Apollyon.
Which we will see as well in “part 2” - Magog
The Gog of the Future in Eze.38-39 must be a supernatural being in Ezekiel 38 who deceives the Nations at Armageddon and the final battle at the end of the 1,000 yr. reign of Christ when God looses Satan and his Angels to tempt man. Rev. 20:8
After the great flood, Noah and his three sons repopulated the entire earth. Ham, Shem and Japheth. . In Genesis, chapter 10, the Bible list the 70 original tribal groups, this is often referred to by Biblical scholars, as The Table of Nations.
To properly understand Ezekiel 38 and 39, we need to identify Gog, Magog and it's allies. The Bible, is always the best source to understanding and prophecy. So it's from this Table of Nations that we first begin to learn the identity of Gog and Magog. Magog was one of the sons of Japheth. "The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech and Tiras." Genesis 10:2
The Islamic Jihad
Part#5 Magog
Josephus (who lived A.D. 37-96 and wrote a history covering the period from Adam to his own death in A.D. 96) he clearly identifies Magog: "Magog founded the Magogians, thus named after him, but who were by the Greeks called Scythians." and they settled around the Black Sea. He said also that the sons of Japheth settled in the Taurus
mountains of Asia Minor, and then spread to many other lands.
He said furthermore that from Gomer came the Galatians; from Madai came the Medes; from Javan came the Greeks; from Tubal and Meshech came the ancient Iberians and Cappadocians of Asia Minor, or modern Turkey; and from Tiras came the Thracians. It was from these ancient peoples that all of Asia and Europe were inhabited, not Russia alone Another reliable source comes from Herodotus, known as the "Father of History." Herodotus writes of the bizarre and savage practices of the descendents of Magog known as the Scythians. They drank the blood of the first enemy they killed; they carried the heads of the victims to their chiefs; they scalped their enemies and used the scalps as "napkins"; they used the skins of their victims to cover their quivers; they drank from the skulls of their victims; they practiced blood brotherhood by drinking each other's blood mixed with wine. The Scythians. "bathed" in the vapor from heated hemp seeds. When their king died, they sacrificed one of his concubines and several servants. After a year, they commemorated his death by sacrificing fifty servants and fifty horses.. We know that the descendants of Magog by their Greek name, Scythians.. The name Scythian covers a number of nomadic tribes from the Russian steppes, a fertile area of the Ukraine north of the Black Sea. Other related tribes occupied the area to the east of the Caspian Sea. The area encompassed by the Scythians extended from the mid-Volga to the northern Urals and beyond. They colonized Media, Parthia, Persia, Central Asia and as far as the Chinese border. Arab writers confirm that in the Arabic language their name for the Great Wall of China is called "the wall of Al Magog" because the Great Wall was built to keep out the invading armies from Magog. All together an area of about 2,000 square miles. So clearly this was the former Soviet Union, modern day Russia.
So, who then is Gog.? Gog is obviously the leader of Magog, he is the "Prince of Meshech and Tubal."
The Oracle of Apollo, Didyma, Turkey Hidden among rolling hills only a few miles from the scenic coast of southeastern Turkey, the ancient site of Didyma is famous from legendary times. Here was a natural spring where the beautiful Leto is supposed to have spent an hour of love with Zeus, then giving birth to the twins Artemis and Apollo (didymoi in Greek). The most important oracle site in Asia Minor, its pronouncements to Croesus, Alexander the Great and other great kings altered the course of human history.
a.Where is MaGog
Ezekiel 38:1-7 gives 10 names as participants in the invasion of Israel that will follow the re-gathering of the Jews to their homeland. First mentioned, is the land of Magog. The most common identity for Magog is in Central Asia. The Jewish historian Josephus said, "Magog founded the Magogians, called Scythians by the Greeks. Scythians were a nomadic tribe who inhabited the ancient territory from Central Asia across the southern part of ancient Russia." Today this area is inhabited by the former Soviet Republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and possibly northern parts of Afghanistan. All of these nations that make up the land of Magog have one thing in common - Islam. Militant Islam has been on the rise in these countries since the fall of the Soviet Union, when Islam no longer had to be practiced secretly. Radical Islamic groups such as the Islamic Renaissance Party, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, and Hizb ut-Tahrir al-Islam are working to reunite central Asian nations and ultimately the entire Muslim world.
Ezekiel's prophecy and Russia's changing demographics. The prophet Ezekiel predicted almost 2,600 years ago that Gog would lead an end time invasion of Israel. The allies of Gog in this invasion are ancient places that today are Central Asia (Magog), Iran (Persia), Libya (Put), Turkey (Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, and Togarmah), and Sudan (Cush.
We will look at Rosh some versions of the Bible translate 'rosh' as an adjective. The argument here is that in the Massoretic text the words 'chief prince' carry the accents Tiphha and Zaqeph-gadol. The Tiphha appears under the resh of the Hebrew word 'rosh'; the Zaqeph-gadol appears on top of the sin of the Hebrew word 'nish'. The Tiphha to the right, underneath the initial consonant of the world 'rosh', or chief, is prepositive and does not mark the tone syllable. The world 'nish' or prince has the accent Zaqeph-gadol which is disjunctive and indicates a pause.
So, verse three would read: "Behold, I am against thee, o Gog, the prince, {pause} chief of Meshech and Tubal" Rather than: "Behold, I am against thee, o Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal."
Here 'rosh' is translated head or chief as it is 423 other times in the Old Testament. In short, if you believe 'rosh' should be translated as a proper noun you may find the interpretation that Russia will be a part of this coalition more reasonable. If you believe 'rosh' should be an adjective here, you need only concern yourself with who Meshech and Tubal in this paticular scripture . I tend to have a problem with the "it sounds like Russia" theory, and find the translation of rosh as an adjective more believable, but to each his own.I do believe Russia will be involved because the land of Magog consist of much of Russia if not all and Part of Tubal.
Meshech and Tubal in verses 2 and 6, were the names of the 6th and 5th sons of Japheth, the son of Noah (Genesis 10:2). Ezekiel 27:13 also mentions Meshech and Tubal as trading partners with Tyre (Modern Lebanon). It's likely that Meshech and Tubal refer to the ancient Moshi/Mushki and Tubalu/Tibareni who dwelled in the area around, primarily south of, the Black and Caspian Sea in Ezekiel's day. Today these nations would be in the modern country of Turkey, parts of Southern Russia and Northern Iran. All areas with a Muslim majority.
Verse 6 adds Gomer and Beth-Togarmah to the coalition. "Gomer" was the first son of Japheth. The Gomerites were the ancient Cimmerians, expelled in 700 BC from the southern steppes of Russia into what is today Turkey. "Togarmah" is the 3rd son of Gomer and beth at the beginning of the name is the Hebrew word for 'house' or 'place of'. In Ezekiel's time there was a city in Cappodocia (Modern Turkey) known as Tegarma, Tagarma, Til-garimmu, and Takarama.
The possibility that four of the names mentioned in Ezekiel are now in Turkey makes a pretty strong argument for Turkey being a part of the invasion of Israel. Current circumstances in that country also lend this view some credibility. Since the break-up of the Soviet Union, Turkey has been gaining inroads into Central Asia (Magog). It is also linked to Central Asia both ethnically and linguistically, and has a growing number of political parties that support opposition to Israel, establishment of a Turkish Islamic Republic, and the worldwide rule of Islam.
Verse 5 brings three more names into the mix. God tells us that "Persia, Cush and Put will be with them".
Persia is a pretty easy one. In 539 BC the Persians conquered the city of Babylon. You only need look at a map of the ancient Persian Empire to see that it was centered in the nation known today as Iran. In fact Iran was called Persia until 1935 when it was changed to Iran and then to the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979 during the Iranian Revolution. It's no secret that Iran is an archenemy of Israel and the West, and a supporter of the Palestinians. They are actively working to get other Arab countries to change camps in their cooperation with the U.S. and Israel.
The ancient kingdom of Cush in Ezekiel's time was the land just south of Egypt on the Nile River. Today this land is occupied by Sudan. Sudan is home to the National Islamic Front, is ruled by an Islamic military dictatorship, a strong supporter of Iraq, home to Osama bin Laden from 1991-1996, and harbors countless Islamic terrorist groups. Sudan would easily fit into the coalition as it is already close allies with Iran, trading military supplies for docking rights on the Red Sea shipping routes.
Ancient Put was the land just west of Egypt, or what is today Libya. Libya is another sponsor of terrorism, and openly refuses to recognize Israel's right to even exist. When the coalition against Israel is formed, Libya won't have to be asked twice to join.
Verse 6 adds "and many people with you." The nations listed specifically are all somewhat distant from Israel. By adding "and many people with you", God is indicating that many nations and the Kingdoms of the East will join with Gog/Beast.
Rev. 16:12-14 (KJV) And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. [13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. [14] For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
Other nations that might join the alliance are Iraq, Syria, Jordon, and Egypt. All of them are Islamic nations, and all of them would not hesitate to support the destruction of Israel were the opportunity to join such a vast coalition presented to them.
b. What is MaGog
Magog is Gogs Origion.
Gog is the Fallen Prince Apollyon. / This is not speaking of the Origin of the Human antichrist for he comes from the old Syrian Empire.
MaGog is the Land that he originated from .This is the Land that was given to him by Satan to rule even before Adam.”see the world that then was”
This land along with Meshech and Tubal is where he was first worshipped as a diety under a different name Appaliunas. .
c. When will Gogs armies attack Israel
There are many facts that prove that Gog of Ezek. 38-Ezek 39 (who is the "little horn" of
Dan.7:7-8,23-24;Dan 8:7-8,20-23, "the beast" of Rev. 13- Rev 17)and the Al Mahadi of the Koron does not originate in Russia, but becomes the leader of Russia and all the Kingdoms in the north and east by conquest. He conquers the Kingdoms north and east of the Roman Empire territory, but originates from Syria (Dan. 11:36-45). Therefore, he becomes the scourge of Russia and not her hero and chief son.
At least 13 predictions in Ezekiel identify these chapters as being fulfilled at Armageddon at the second advent, and not at the time of some hypothetical war between Israel and Russia or anyone else happening before the tribulation and the second advent.
The predictions include:
1. Both Israel and many other nations getting to know Eloheem “GOD” from the time of this battle onward (Ezek 38:16; Ezek 39:6-7,21-25,27);This would be the fulfillment of Daniels 70 weeks (Dan 9-24-27)and the end of Israels Tribulation.This would also be the fulfillment of All Israel being saved or redeemed in (Zech. 12:10-13:1; Romans 11:25-29) (Hosea 6:2). Zech. 3:9)
2. No more pollution of Eloheem “GOD”'s name (Ezek 39:7);
3. Eloheem “GOD” glorified by all nations (Ezek 39:13,21);
4. Israel saved from Gentile domination forever (Ezek 39:26-29);same as Luke 21:24 (KJV) And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. ”Times of the Gentiles rule is over/Times of the Gentiles fulfilled
5. Israel completely regathered from all nations (Ezek 39:28);same as(Deut. 30:4; Isaiah 11:11-12) Matthew 24:31 (KJV) And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
6. The Holy Spirit poured out upon Israel (Ezek 39:29); For the fulfillment of Joel2:28
7. Israel never again to be afraid of other nations (Ezek 39:26);
8. Eloheem “GOD” never again to hide His face from Israel (Ezek 39:29);
9. Eloheem “GOD”'s name to be sanctified among the heathen (Ezek 39:7);
10. Men to see Eloheem “GOD” bodily and in person (Ezek 38:18-22; Ezek 39:1-6,17-24);
11. All the heathen to know Eloheem “GOD” from this time forward into all eternity (Ezek 39:23; Rev. 21-Rev 22).
12. Gog and his armies of Ezek. 38- Ezek 39 falling upon the open field to make a great supper for the birds and beasts is exactly the same as in Rev. 14:12-20;Rev 19:11-21; Mt. 24:28,37-42; Lk. 17:34-37 which pictures the battle of Armageddon (Ezek. 38:3-5; Ezek 39:4,17-25).
13. Eloheem “GOD” predicts that the armies of Gog in Ezek. 38:20-22; Ezek 39:6 would become so confused then they would destroy one another. The same is stated of the armies of the Antichrist at Armageddon (Zech. 14:4,10).
d. Why the war with Gog From the Land of MaGog
1. From the Mortal view- Again, it's instructive to view the common motivator as religion, not race. Some years ago, an editorial in the Jerusalem Post outlined the "Arab" plan as being composed of two phases. Phase one was to gain as much as possible through the inexpensive negotiating process while simultaneously weakening Israel and strengthening the Moslem coalition. Phase two, after no more negotiated gain can be made, is to go to war for the rest
2. From the Supernatural View - But the real reason is for Satan and his Fallen Angels to try to become victorious over Gods creation “Man”.
Satan and his Angels will have already been thrown out of Heaven and there battle for Heaven will be over .So this will not be the reason for the Battle but rather that they seek to destroy Gods plan for Man and keep from being thrown in the Lake of fire.
Its all about Legal Authority.

Part#6 Apollyon Apolluwn
Apollo is a Greek god whose name occurs as a theophoric element in the names Apollwv
(Acts 18:24,var. lect.: Apellhv , Apollwniov { of which Apollo is a dimimutive]; 19:1,var. lect.: Apellhv 1Cor.1:12,3:4-6 ; 16:12 and Titus 3:13, Apellhv ( Rom.16:10 ).Apollwnia (Acts 17:1.var.lect.’ Apollwniv Apolluwn , Rev. 9:11).
1. Apollo's origins (perhaps Magog) aren’t 100% certain ; his name yields no convincing
Greek etymology, although he became the most thoroughly Greek of all gods...Apollo was considerd an intruder ,it was excepted that Apollo was of non Greek
origin.The attempts to locate his origion havent been 100% conclussive but most agree he probably came from the North-East of Eroupe or Asia minor (Guthrie 1950:70-87), The once Hitite god Apulunas is believed to be Apollo. It appears that both Greek and Etruscan Apollo came to the Aegean during the Archaic Period (i.e. from c.1,100 BCE to c.800 BCE) from Anatolia. Homer pictures him on the side of the Trojans, against the Achaeans, during the Trojan War and he has close affiliations with a Luwian deity, Apaliuna, who in turn seems to have traveled west from further east. The Late Bronze Age (from 1,700 BCE - 1,200 BCE) Hittite and Hurrian Aplu,[citation needed] like the Homeric Apollo, was a god of plagues, and resembles the mouse god Apollo Smintheus In Jewish traditions
