Treason in the Church: Trading Truth for a "Social Gospel"
Finding this after posting my study on the Social Gospel, I believe was God ordained. Her presentation is much more detailed, marvelously articulated, and minutely documented. I wish I was as learned as this sister. Read her work and you may become just that!

From William Guy Carr, "Pawns in the Game"
This is a snippet from the first chapter, showing an Illuminati conspiracy...
Pike’s plan was as simple as it has proved effective. He required that Communism, Naziism,
Political Zionism, and other International movements be organized and used to foment the three
global wars and three major revolutions. The first world war was to be fought so as to enable
the Illuminati to overthrow the powers of the Tzars in Russia and turn that country into the
stronghold of Atheistic-Communism. The differences stirred up by agentur of the Illuminati
between the British and German Empires were to be used to foment this war. After the war
ended, Communism was to be built up and used to destroy other governments and weaken
religions.
World War Two, was to be fomented by using the differences between Fascists and Political
Zionists. This war was to be fought so that Naziism would be destroyed and the power of
Political Zionism increased so that the sovereign state of Israel could be established in
Palestine. During world war two International Communism was to be built up until it equalled
in strength that of united Christendom. At this point it was to be contained and kept in check
until required for the final social cataclysm. Can any informed person deny Roosevelt and
Churchill did not put this policy into effect ?
World War Three is to be fomented by using the differences the agentur of the Illuminati stir up
between Political Zionists and the leaders of the Moslem world. The war is to be directed in
such a manner that Islam (the Arab World including Mohammedanism) and Political Zionism
(including the State of Israel) will destroy themselves while at the same time the remaining
nations, once more divided against each other on this issue, will be forced to fight themselves
into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically. Can any
unbiased and reasoning person deny that the intrigue now going on in the Near, Middle, and Far
East isn’t designed to accomplish this devilish purpose ?
On August 15, 1871, Pike told Mazzini that after World War Three is ended, those who aspire
to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever
known. We quote his own written words (taken from the letter catalogued in the British
Museum Library, London, Eng.) :
“We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm
which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of
savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend
themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of
civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with christianity, whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without compass (direction), anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”
When Mazzini died in 1872, Pike made another Italian revolutionary leader, named Adriano
Lemmi, his successor. Lemmi was later succeeded by Lenin and Trotsky. The revolutionary
activities of all these men were financed by British, French, German, and American
international bankers. The reader must remember that the International Bankers of to-day, like the Money-Changers of Christ’s day, are only tools or agents of the Illuminati.
So, how do you feel about the "bail-out" now? Read the book by clicking the title. WARNING: this man may be an expert on geopolitical history, but don't accept him as an authority on the bible. He has many errors in his theology. That is not enough reason to disregard his expertise in these other things. You have been warned.

The Social Gospel
It has become a “mark of Christianity” to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, fix the broken, build houses for the needy...but was that the “mark of Christianity” for the original Church?
I think the Church has been hoodwinked by the “Global Planners” to do its bidding for them. “World Servers”, “World Federalist Assoc.” and other One World Order groups have suckered the Church world into its humanistic cause. The Church, because of the Lord’s mandate to “love our neighbor as our self”, has allowed itself to be guilt ridden into yet another false condemnation.
An evangelist, passing through our church one day said:
Humanism- says man is capable of self-fulfillment and ethical conduct without God’s help. (the pride of life)
Materialism- is the concept that possessions, comfort, pleasure and wealth should be high priorities in life. (lust of the eyes)
Sensual ism- The idea that excessive indulgences in bodily or sexual pleasure brings personal fulfillment. (lust of the flesh) Apologies to the evangelist for not remembering which one you were.
Some have suggested our weakness for these things because they relate to our core: body (lust of the flesh), soul (lust of the eyes) , and spirit (pride of life).
Who is the father of humanism? Some will tell you the history of Humanism from the Renaissance period in Italy...but that doesn’t answer the question. The fallen LIAR from heaven, the former Lucifer, now Satan, is the great humanist. Look behind the curtain and see the pushers of the social gospel are New World Order core groups. The United Nations is a humanist institution. Any religion accepted (except religious exclusiveness, which must be extirpated-killed-according to Mikhail Gorbachev, leader of Green Cross, and other One World Organizations. Apparently, Islam is being excluded from this philosophy. )
Humanism ties all humanity together as one body, just as Christ ties all BELIEVERS together as one body. Humanism tries to make us all responsible for all. Christ makes BELIEVERS responsible to and for one another.
John 13:
34. "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
35. "By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.'' (not for feeding the dead)
1 Cor.12:
12. For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
13. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.
14. For in fact the body is not one member but many.
15. If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body,'' is it therefore not of the body?
16. And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body,'' is it therefore not of the body?
17. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
18. But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.
19. And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
20. But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.
25. that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
26. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
27. Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
Jesus taught that the church should care for its own members, not that it is responsible to take care of the whole world. We don’t even effectively take care of our own, why should we be burdened with the lost- dead world also, except to get them delivered from that state of lost deadness? Get them to LIFE, then take care of them. Or allow them to assist our taking care of each other- the temple of God, His BODY.
It is called BODY MINISTRY by many. How did the first church understand this concept of BODY MINISTRY?
In the Old Testament- the tithes were to be brought into the storehouse (temple) so that there would be provision for the priesthood.
Since we are the temple, Paul wrote to the Corinthians
1 Cor. 16: 1. Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also:
2. On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come. ( no mention of tithes)
3. And when I come, whomever you approve by your letters, I will send to bear your gift to Jerusalem.
Acts 2: 41. Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.
42. And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
43. Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
44. Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common,
45. and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. ( among the believers only)
Again in Acts 4
32. Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.
33. And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all.
34. Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,
35. and laid them at the apostles' feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need.
Does anyone really believe that the Church was feeding the unbelieving world with these sacrifices?
In Acts 6, as the Church grew-charity began to become a strain on the elders, so deacons were appointed to continue in this much needed ministry TO THE CHURCH:
1. Now in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a murmuring against the Hebrews by the Hellenists, because their widows were neglected in the daily distribution.
2. Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, "It is not desirable that we should leave the word of God and serve tables.
3. "Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business;
4. "but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.''
Acts 11:
27. And in these days prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28. Then one of them, named Agabus, stood up and showed by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine throughout all the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius Caesar.
29. Then the disciples, each according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.
30. This they also did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
1 Peter 4:
3. For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles when we walked in licentiousness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.
4. In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you.
5. They will give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6. For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead,(in trespasses and sin) that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7. But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers.
8. And above all things have fervent love for one another, for "love will cover a multitude of sins.''
9. Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
10. As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
14. If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.
15. But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters.
16. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.
17. For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?
18. Now "If the righteous one is scarcely saved, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?''
19. Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.
But what about Matt.25? Let’s look at Matthew 25.
31. "When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
32. "All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.
33. "And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
34. "Then the King will say to those on His right hand, `Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35. `for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;
36. `I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.'
37. "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, `Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?
38. `When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?
39. `Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?'
40. "And the King will answer and say to them, `Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.'
41. "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, `Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:
42. `for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;
43. `I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.'
44. "Then they also will answer Him, saying, `Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?'
45. "Then He will answer them, saying, `Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.'
46. "And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.''
I believe Jesus was talking strictly of BODY MINISTRY. We are NOT ordained to FEED the WORLD. We are ordained to tell them the TRUTH. We are commanded to feed one another. By this shall men know that ye are my disciples, because ye have love one to another!
1 Cor.6 19. Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
Paul ended his writing to the Corinthians in his fist letter with this admonition: 16: 22. If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!
Matt.8: 21. Then another of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father.''
22. But Jesus said to him, "Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.''
The spiritually dead can take care of each other, the Body of Christ, the Temple of the Holy Ghost must take care of itself.
1Tim. 5: 8. But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (infidel-kjv)
I think we need to re-examine our priorities. Even among church members, it is spelled out how charity should, and should not be indulged.
1 Tim.5: 9. Do not let a widow under sixty years old be taken into the number, and not unless she has been the wife of one man,
10. well reported for good works: if she has brought up children, if she has lodged strangers, if she has washed the saints' feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, if she has diligently followed every good work.
11. But refuse the younger widows; for when they have begun to grow wanton against Christ, they desire to marry...
To reiterate:Humanism ties all humanity together as one body, just as Christ ties all BELIEVERS together as one body. Humanism tries to make us all responsible for all. Christ makes BELIEVERS responsible to and for one another.
The Church certainly has a duty to love, and to care for the needy. First of it’s own household of faith, then the larger community of believers, the persecuted church, etc. We will never run out of Godly charitable targets. We need not feel condemned into also feeding the unlimited poor, godless masses. Prayerfully consider these things.
I think the Church has been hoodwinked by the “Global Planners” to do its bidding for them. “World Servers”, “World Federalist Assoc.” and other One World Order groups have suckered the Church world into its humanistic cause. The Church, because of the Lord’s mandate to “love our neighbor as our self”, has allowed itself to be guilt ridden into yet another false condemnation.

44. "Then they also will answer Him, saying, `Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?'
45. "Then He will answer them, saying, `Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.'
46. "And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.''
I believe Jesus was talking strictly of BODY MINISTRY. We are NOT ordained to FEED the WORLD. We are ordained to tell them the TRUTH. We are commanded to feed one another. By this shall men know that ye are my disciples, because ye have love one to another!
1 Cor.6 19. Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
Paul ended his writing to the Corinthians in his fist letter with this admonition: 16: 22. If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!
Matt.8: 21. Then another of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father.''
22. But Jesus said to him, "Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.''
The spiritually dead can take care of each other, the Body of Christ, the Temple of the Holy Ghost must take care of itself.
1Tim. 5: 8. But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (infidel-kjv)
I think we need to re-examine our priorities. Even among church members, it is spelled out how charity should, and should not be indulged.
1 Tim.5: 9. Do not let a widow under sixty years old be taken into the number, and not unless she has been the wife of one man,
10. well reported for good works: if she has brought up children, if she has lodged strangers, if she has washed the saints' feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, if she has diligently followed every good work.
11. But refuse the younger widows; for when they have begun to grow wanton against Christ, they desire to marry...
To reiterate:Humanism ties all humanity together as one body, just as Christ ties all BELIEVERS together as one body. Humanism tries to make us all responsible for all. Christ makes BELIEVERS responsible to and for one another.
The Church certainly has a duty to love, and to care for the needy. First of it’s own household of faith, then the larger community of believers, the persecuted church, etc. We will never run out of Godly charitable targets. We need not feel condemned into also feeding the unlimited poor, godless masses. Prayerfully consider these things.

Gordon Brown calls for new global financial order at UN General Assembly
Friday September 26, 3:01 pm ET By Michael Astor, Associated Press Writer
UNITED NATIONS (AP) -- British Prime Minister Gordon Brown called Friday for "a new global financial order" to resolve the financial crisis currently roiling world markets.
In his address before the U.N. General Assembly, Brown said the world was facing the "first real financial crisis" of the global era and that it required an international solution.
"The international institutions created in the aftermath of World War II have not kept pace with the changing global economy. We need national regulators to be cooperative, rules and principles to be consistent and international movements of capital to be transparent," Brown said.
He said the immediate priority was to stabilize financial markets and then work to rebuild the world financial system around clear principles, including increased transparency, regulation, responsibility and global oversight of international capital flows.
"For we must build a new global financial order founded on transparency, not opacity, rewarding success not excess, responsibility, not impunity, and which is global not national," Brown said. "We must clearly state that the age of irresponsibility must be end."
Britain is dealing with the current credit crunch by making over $184 billion available and extending a special liquidity scheme until the end of Jan. 2009, Brown said. The country also has placed a temporary ban on short-selling.
Brown bemoaned wildly fluctuating oil prices and called for a restart of the stalled Doha round of World Trade Organization talks. The Doha talks broke down earlier this year after rich nations were unable to reach agreement with developing nations over these agricultural tariffs and subsidies.
On Friday, Brown called for the removal of protectionist trade barriers and subsidies, which he acknowledged denied developing countries some $15 billion in agricultural income each year.
At end of the year, Brown said he would host a global energy summit in London.
Finally, he warned against a tendency toward isolationism in the face of the current crises involving food, fuels and world finance. "Some say in a time of difficulty we should look inwards and cut aid. That we have excuse for tolerating famine, or for walking by on the other side," Brown said. "Now is not the time to pull up the drawbridge. To seek solace in isolation or revert to an outdated and futile protectionism."

Acts 2:38-The Seal of Salvation
Pre-Catholic, pre-Reformation doctrine taught by the first century church is tricky to find in today's world, outside of the "Oneness Pentecostal" movement. The typical Anabaptist church is closer in many respects regarding holiness of heart and devotion to TRUTH, but have missed the importance of Acts 2:38 truth. God judges the heart, and having a real devotional relationship with Jesus Christ is more important than ritual or "cook-book" doctrines, BUT the bible says that God esteems His Word even above His own name!
In reading Anabaptist material, I am struck with their early devotion to Christ instead of worshipping the existing churches, and the institutions. Now, however, they seem to worship their heritage, their own church more than the truth. The early Protestant leaders burned Anabaptists at the stake, and persecuted them to death...literally! Their claim to follow Christ rather than the protestant churches or it's leaders has been replaced by being forced to follow their own leaders under fear of being shunned. They have replaced one evil with another. They have lost the ability to "follow Christ-no matter what". It's never wise to fear any man or group of men more than fearing to follow the Word.
Doctrine is vitally important. Rightly dividing the word of truth is commanded for each of us, not just our leaders. Blind leaders of the blind cause both to fall into the ditch. Please peruse the power point presentations found in the links on the left: "Integrity OF the Word, and TO the Word", "Baptism-Water and Spirit", The Roman Road to Salvation-in Perspective", and "Tablernacle in the Wilderness"

The Timing of the Rapture, Pre/Mid/Post-Trib?
This is the 3rd in a series of 3
#1 "Mystery Babylon" is the Roman Catholic Church
#2 "The Antichrist, the False Prophet, and the Mark of the Beast"
*Slide #1-Intro slide
The rapture is the great "catching away" of all those who have trusted Christ - living and dead. The word "rapture" is not found in scripture. It is from the Latin Vulgate (ancient Latin translation of the Bible) "rapere" which means to "catch up." In 1 Thess 4:17 the Bible states that we will be "caught up" and this is the phrase where the Vulgate used the word "rapere."
1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 is the definitive passage that describes the event we call the rapture.
1 Thess 4:
15. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
The fact that the saints will be raptured is clear in scripture and there has not been much debate on that fact. However, the timing of the rapture has been hotly debated for centuries. So, the question is, when will the rapture occur?
*Slide #2-The Timing of the Rapture;
The Pre-Tribulation
By far, the most popular view is the Pre-Tribulation position. The “Left Behind” books and movies perpetuate this view. Teachers of the Pre-Tribulation view believe Jesus will rapture His people at the beginning of the 70th Week. God's people (except those who are saved during the 7 years) are completely absent from the earth during the last 7 years, while God’s wrath is being poured out on the earth, going through the Bema Judgment and the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
There are three significant events that are specific to this view. First, this view sees the seals, trumpets and vials as all signifying God's wrath and that they are poured out upon mankind during the entire 7 years. Second, the 144,000 Jews spoken of in Revelation chapter seven are seen as Jewish evangelists who will usher in the greatest revival in history - which is the third significant event.
Pre-trib problems
There are some scriptural problems with the Pre-Tribulation view. The first is that scripture mentions explicitly that the return of Christ will be unmistakable. According to the Pre-Tribulation view, the rapture will be only known to those taken to heaven. The rest of the world will know only that multitudes have disappeared. However, scripture indicates on several occasions that when Christ returns it will be obvious.
Slide #3-Mat 24:
26. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Slide #4-Luke 17:
23. And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.
24. For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
Slide #5-Rev 1: 7. Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
If the rapture is a "secret" to the world, how could these scriptures be relevant? Furthermore, why would Christ have not explicitly told his followers that in the last day they would be raptured, and then God's wrath would be poured upon the world? Why is the pre-tribulational rapture missing from end-time passages?
Another problem is that according to this view, the Holy Spirit will be absent from the world having been "taken out of the way" by the rapture of the church. Therefore, how do we explain the greatest revival in history and the great multitude saved when the Holy Spirit is no longer in the world?
Furthermore, scripture tells us that rather than a multitude saved, God will cause those who reject Him to be deluded into delighting in wickedness...
Slide #6-2 Thess 2:
10. And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
We are also told in the book of Revelation that even after suffering God's wrath people will still not repent.
Slide #7-Rev 9: 20. And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: (this is after the 6th trumpet has sounded)
Rather than a great revival taking place, it seems that people will dive more into wickedness and rejecting God than ever before.
If there is a pre-tribulational rapture, then according to Matthew 24, there must be two raptures...
Slide #8-Matt 24: 29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31. 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.
The Son of Man in the clouds, loud trumpet call, send his angels, gather his elect... it sounds a lot like the rapture doesn’t it? Therefore, if the rapture has already happened, there will be another very similar event - supposedly directed at the Jews. The scripture in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 also poses a problem.
Slide #9- 2 Thess 2
1. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
3. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
This passage begins "concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to Him..." Does this sound like he is speaking of the rapture? Then he goes on to say that "that day" will not come until the "man of lawlessness" (the Antichrist) is revealed. So what comes first, The Antichrist or the rapture?
The Mid-Tribulation position is that the rapture will occur at the mid-point of the 70th Week when Antichrist demands the world worship him. Stronger evidence, as we already covered. The antichrist won’t be revealed until the middle of the 7 years, and the rapture can’t happen before then. But the “Day of the Lord” is his coming both for the church and to pour out his wrath.
Slide #10 Isaiah 13:6-10
6. Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
7. Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
8. And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
9. Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10. For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
Slide #11- Isaiah 13:11-13
11. And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
12. I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13. Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
See Isaiah 24:20- The Earth shall Reel To and Fro Like a Drunkard & The Volcanic Return of Jesus Christ
Slide #12-Matt.24:
29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31. 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.
Slide #13- Luke 21: 25. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26. Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Starting to sound like the post-tribulation position, is it? Some post-trib teacher believe the saints will endure the wrath of God?
There are some scriptural problems with that point of view:
Slide #14-Romans 5: 9. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
Slide #15- 1 Thess 1 10. And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
Slide #16 1 Thess 5: 9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.
SEALS, TRUMPETS, AND VIALS
A seal was used to authenticate an official proclamation, having the sovereign’s official seal impressed upon melted wax. Seeing the official seal of the King meant “Pay attention-this is vital information from your KING!”
End Time Coming Attractions: SEALS-The LONG VIEW- Ending with Rapture

1. And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
False Religion- control by spiritual manipulation-RCC/Pope. World religion-Global Ethic- Remember we are talking about a desire for world domination-This is the spirit of Nimrod- Babylon
Slide # 18- 2nd Seal-Red Horse- Rev.6:
3. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

Control by militancy- UN Army- World control.... remember Michael New?
Here Come the UN Army & Police by Thomas R. Eddlem October 17, 2005
Source: The New American
"The liberal media have long portrayed the Bush administration as hostile to the United Nations. Yet, Bush's State Department signed a document on September 15, 2005 that would result in an unprecedented militarization of the United Nations.
The 2005 World Summit Outcomes document would (among other things) strengthen the military "stand-by arrangements" already in existence with 80 nations (for the United Nations to call up troops from national armies) and would initiate a new standing UN police force. World Summit Outcomes stipulates: "We endorse the creation of an initial operating capability for a standing police capacity to provide coherent, effective and responsible start-up capability for the policing component of the United Nations peacekeeping missions and to assist existing missions through the provision of advice and expertise."
The proposed UN "police capacity" would be charged (at first) with keeping order in zones where UN forces have already been deployed. It's no great stretch, however, to see this gradually mutating into a de facto global police force enforcing UN mandates and arresting individuals for prosecution and trial by UN institutions. Along these lines, it should be especially noteworthy to American gun owners that World Summit Outcomes champions a favorite UN theme: the elimination of civilian ownership of small arms and light weapons. As we have reported extensively in past issues, the 2001 UN "Conference on the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects" left no doubt as to the organization's animus toward private ownership of firearms, making no distinction between criminals, terrorists, and law-abiding citizens.
The enhanced new UN "peacekeeping" army call-up arrangements would be roughly analogous to the U.S. National Guard system, whereby states maintain soldiers who can be called up by the federal government. In order to implement the world police and "world guard"-style global army, the document requires the United Nations to establish a Peace-building Commission that would be partnered with the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.
This raises the possibility that a standing UN army may soon be possible without the approval of national governments, even though our governments are providing the funding through the IMF and World Bank."
Slide #19- 3rd Seal-Black Horse- Rev.6:
5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
Control by financial domination. World Bank- (for a world government) IMF-(Control governments) The Federal Reserve-implemented by Knights of Malta, International Bankers, ultimately controlled by the Jesuits, Rome, will force the “Mark of the Beast” on the world in the end. World wide currency
Notice the Oil and Wine cartels are NOT price controlled.
Slide # 20- 4th seal-Pale Horse- Rev.6:
7. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Control by Terrorism, blocked rescue of famine relief (hunger-UN mishandling), AIDS, Islamic fascism (kill with the sword) school shootings, etc. Irvin Baxter Jr. of ENDTIME.com teaches: The pale (chloros or green) horse is the “spirit” of Islam. Death and hell followed. The pale horse is given power over 1/4 of the earth.
The Above 4 horses are also seen in Zech.6:
1. And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2. In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3. And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.
4. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
5. And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
6. The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country.
7. And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
8. Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. (The spirit of capitalism works contrary to the Holy Spirit, even though most evangelicals seem to worship capitalism; the “prosperity” gospel stops true revival, and the seeking for the personal cross to bear.)
The Homeless One
By John H. Dearing
They borrowed a stall and that was not all;
They borrowed a manger, too.
They borrowed a bed to lay His head,
Yet He was the Savior true.
It was borrowed bread when the crowd was fed,
And all were satisfied.
He borrowed fish, too, and only a few;
Many fragments were left beside.
He borrowed a boat and set it afloat
Not far out from the shore.
He borrowed a seat and rested His feet,
As the word to the people He bore.
It came to pass that He borrowed an ass,
And the praise of the people was heard;
With borrowed garments, He trod on a borrowed road,
The Savior, fulfilling God’s Word.
He borrowed a room on his way to the tomb,
The Passover lamb to eat.
They borrowed a cave for the Master’s grave;
They borrowed the winding sheet.
Not reckoning the loss, He borrowed a cross,
And Barabbas, the owner, went free.
He borrowed the sin that was laid upon Him
And borrowed His death from ME
Not much of a capitalist, was he?
Philippians 2: 4. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
5. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6. Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7. But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8. And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Jesus wasn’t interested in selfish consumerism. He didn’t promote a “name it and claim it” gospel. What was on his mind? Souls in eternity. Let this mind be in you...
Slide #21- 5th seal-the Martyrs
Rev.6:- 9. And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11. And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

14. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16. And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17. For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
Re-read Matt 24:29-31
29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31. 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.

8. And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Slide #26 Rev.12:
12. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
13. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

Slide #39- Armageddon- Ezekiel 38
Not on the slide:
1. And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2. Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3. And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4. And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5. Persia (Iran), Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6. Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.
8. After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9. Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10. Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11. And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12. To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13. Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
14. Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when My people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15. And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16. And thou shalt come up against My people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17. Thus saith the Lord God; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18. And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19. For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20. So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.

Just found (8/20/2013) a web site that I believe accurately (more accurately than I have described) the timing of the rapture. It was posted 9/2011. You will find it, with graphs making clear the teaching HERE.http://prewrathministries.org/index.php/prewrath/39-prewrath/lessons/67-rapture-problems
#1 "Mystery Babylon" is the Roman Catholic Church
#2 "The Antichrist, the False Prophet, and the Mark of the Beast"
*Slide #1-Intro slide
The rapture is the great "catching away" of all those who have trusted Christ - living and dead. The word "rapture" is not found in scripture. It is from the Latin Vulgate (ancient Latin translation of the Bible) "rapere" which means to "catch up." In 1 Thess 4:17 the Bible states that we will be "caught up" and this is the phrase where the Vulgate used the word "rapere."
1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 is the definitive passage that describes the event we call the rapture.
1 Thess 4:
15. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
The fact that the saints will be raptured is clear in scripture and there has not been much debate on that fact. However, the timing of the rapture has been hotly debated for centuries. So, the question is, when will the rapture occur?
*Slide #2-The Timing of the Rapture;
The Pre-Tribulation
By far, the most popular view is the Pre-Tribulation position. The “Left Behind” books and movies perpetuate this view. Teachers of the Pre-Tribulation view believe Jesus will rapture His people at the beginning of the 70th Week. God's people (except those who are saved during the 7 years) are completely absent from the earth during the last 7 years, while God’s wrath is being poured out on the earth, going through the Bema Judgment and the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
There are three significant events that are specific to this view. First, this view sees the seals, trumpets and vials as all signifying God's wrath and that they are poured out upon mankind during the entire 7 years. Second, the 144,000 Jews spoken of in Revelation chapter seven are seen as Jewish evangelists who will usher in the greatest revival in history - which is the third significant event.
Pre-trib problems
There are some scriptural problems with the Pre-Tribulation view. The first is that scripture mentions explicitly that the return of Christ will be unmistakable. According to the Pre-Tribulation view, the rapture will be only known to those taken to heaven. The rest of the world will know only that multitudes have disappeared. However, scripture indicates on several occasions that when Christ returns it will be obvious.
Slide #3-Mat 24:
26. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Slide #4-Luke 17:
23. And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.
24. For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
Slide #5-Rev 1: 7. Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
If the rapture is a "secret" to the world, how could these scriptures be relevant? Furthermore, why would Christ have not explicitly told his followers that in the last day they would be raptured, and then God's wrath would be poured upon the world? Why is the pre-tribulational rapture missing from end-time passages?
Another problem is that according to this view, the Holy Spirit will be absent from the world having been "taken out of the way" by the rapture of the church. Therefore, how do we explain the greatest revival in history and the great multitude saved when the Holy Spirit is no longer in the world?
Furthermore, scripture tells us that rather than a multitude saved, God will cause those who reject Him to be deluded into delighting in wickedness...
Slide #6-2 Thess 2:
10. And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
We are also told in the book of Revelation that even after suffering God's wrath people will still not repent.
Slide #7-Rev 9: 20. And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: (this is after the 6th trumpet has sounded)
Rather than a great revival taking place, it seems that people will dive more into wickedness and rejecting God than ever before.
If there is a pre-tribulational rapture, then according to Matthew 24, there must be two raptures...
Slide #8-Matt 24: 29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31. 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.
The Son of Man in the clouds, loud trumpet call, send his angels, gather his elect... it sounds a lot like the rapture doesn’t it? Therefore, if the rapture has already happened, there will be another very similar event - supposedly directed at the Jews. The scripture in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 also poses a problem.
Slide #9- 2 Thess 2
1. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
3. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
This passage begins "concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to Him..." Does this sound like he is speaking of the rapture? Then he goes on to say that "that day" will not come until the "man of lawlessness" (the Antichrist) is revealed. So what comes first, The Antichrist or the rapture?
The Mid-Tribulation position is that the rapture will occur at the mid-point of the 70th Week when Antichrist demands the world worship him. Stronger evidence, as we already covered. The antichrist won’t be revealed until the middle of the 7 years, and the rapture can’t happen before then. But the “Day of the Lord” is his coming both for the church and to pour out his wrath.
Slide #10 Isaiah 13:6-10
6. Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
7. Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
8. And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
9. Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10. For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
Slide #11- Isaiah 13:11-13
11. And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
12. I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13. Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
See Isaiah 24:20- The Earth shall Reel To and Fro Like a Drunkard & The Volcanic Return of Jesus Christ
Slide #12-Matt.24:
29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31. 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.
Slide #13- Luke 21: 25. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26. Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Starting to sound like the post-tribulation position, is it? Some post-trib teacher believe the saints will endure the wrath of God?
There are some scriptural problems with that point of view:
Slide #14-Romans 5: 9. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
Slide #15- 1 Thess 1 10. And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
Slide #16 1 Thess 5: 9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.
SEALS, TRUMPETS, AND VIALS
A seal was used to authenticate an official proclamation, having the sovereign’s official seal impressed upon melted wax. Seeing the official seal of the King meant “Pay attention-this is vital information from your KING!”

Control by militancy- UN Army- World control.... remember Michael New?
Here Come the UN Army & Police by Thomas R. Eddlem October 17, 2005
Source: The New American
"The liberal media have long portrayed the Bush administration as hostile to the United Nations. Yet, Bush's State Department signed a document on September 15, 2005 that would result in an unprecedented militarization of the United Nations.
The 2005 World Summit Outcomes document would (among other things) strengthen the military "stand-by arrangements" already in existence with 80 nations (for the United Nations to call up troops from national armies) and would initiate a new standing UN police force. World Summit Outcomes stipulates: "We endorse the creation of an initial operating capability for a standing police capacity to provide coherent, effective and responsible start-up capability for the policing component of the United Nations peacekeeping missions and to assist existing missions through the provision of advice and expertise."
The proposed UN "police capacity" would be charged (at first) with keeping order in zones where UN forces have already been deployed. It's no great stretch, however, to see this gradually mutating into a de facto global police force enforcing UN mandates and arresting individuals for prosecution and trial by UN institutions. Along these lines, it should be especially noteworthy to American gun owners that World Summit Outcomes champions a favorite UN theme: the elimination of civilian ownership of small arms and light weapons. As we have reported extensively in past issues, the 2001 UN "Conference on the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects" left no doubt as to the organization's animus toward private ownership of firearms, making no distinction between criminals, terrorists, and law-abiding citizens.
The enhanced new UN "peacekeeping" army call-up arrangements would be roughly analogous to the U.S. National Guard system, whereby states maintain soldiers who can be called up by the federal government. In order to implement the world police and "world guard"-style global army, the document requires the United Nations to establish a Peace-building Commission that would be partnered with the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.
This raises the possibility that a standing UN army may soon be possible without the approval of national governments, even though our governments are providing the funding through the IMF and World Bank."
Slide #19- 3rd Seal-Black Horse- Rev.6:
5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
Control by financial domination. World Bank- (for a world government) IMF-(Control governments) The Federal Reserve-implemented by Knights of Malta, International Bankers, ultimately controlled by the Jesuits, Rome, will force the “Mark of the Beast” on the world in the end. World wide currency
Notice the Oil and Wine cartels are NOT price controlled.
Slide # 20- 4th seal-Pale Horse- Rev.6:
7. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Control by Terrorism, blocked rescue of famine relief (hunger-UN mishandling), AIDS, Islamic fascism (kill with the sword) school shootings, etc. Irvin Baxter Jr. of ENDTIME.com teaches: The pale (chloros or green) horse is the “spirit” of Islam. Death and hell followed. The pale horse is given power over 1/4 of the earth.
The Above 4 horses are also seen in Zech.6:
1. And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2. In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3. And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.
4. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
5. And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
6. The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country.
7. And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
8. Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. (The spirit of capitalism works contrary to the Holy Spirit, even though most evangelicals seem to worship capitalism; the “prosperity” gospel stops true revival, and the seeking for the personal cross to bear.)
The Homeless One
By John H. Dearing
They borrowed a stall and that was not all;
They borrowed a manger, too.
They borrowed a bed to lay His head,
Yet He was the Savior true.
It was borrowed bread when the crowd was fed,
And all were satisfied.
He borrowed fish, too, and only a few;
Many fragments were left beside.
He borrowed a boat and set it afloat
Not far out from the shore.
He borrowed a seat and rested His feet,
As the word to the people He bore.
It came to pass that He borrowed an ass,
And the praise of the people was heard;
With borrowed garments, He trod on a borrowed road,
The Savior, fulfilling God’s Word.
He borrowed a room on his way to the tomb,
The Passover lamb to eat.
They borrowed a cave for the Master’s grave;
They borrowed the winding sheet.
Not reckoning the loss, He borrowed a cross,
And Barabbas, the owner, went free.
He borrowed the sin that was laid upon Him
And borrowed His death from ME
Not much of a capitalist, was he?
Philippians 2: 4. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
5. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6. Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7. But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8. And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Jesus wasn’t interested in selfish consumerism. He didn’t promote a “name it and claim it” gospel. What was on his mind? Souls in eternity. Let this mind be in you...

Not on the slide:
1. And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2. Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3. And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4. And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5. Persia (Iran), Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6. Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.
8. After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9. Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10. Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11. And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12. To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13. Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
14. Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when My people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15. And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16. And thou shalt come up against My people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17. Thus saith the Lord God; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18. And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19. For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20. So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.

And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints (holy ones- newer transl. possibly angels) with thee.
6. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7. But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8. And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9. And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.
11. And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
16. And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
17. And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
18. And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
19. This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
2 Thess.2:
8. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9. Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
Rev.19: 7. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11. And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18. That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21. And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
Rev. 20: 1. And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3. And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
4. And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Rev.20:
6. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7. And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

Slide #1- Dan.7:
1. 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.
2. Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.
3. And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Slide #2 – 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.
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 mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
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.
7. After 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.

Slide #7- Rev.13:
1. And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast 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.
2. 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.
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.
SOME BELIEVE THE DEADLY WOUND THAT WAS HEALED WAS THE REBIRTH OF THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE, SOME BELIEVE IT WAS THE REUNIFICATION OF EAST AND WEST GERMANY, SOME BELIEVE THE ANTICHRIST WILL ACTUALLY RECEIVE A MORTAL WOUND TO HIS HEAD AND MIRACULOUSLY COME BACK TO LIFE. WE WILL SEE.
THE MAIN POINT IS IN REV. JOHN SAW ALL THESE BEASTS (COUNTRIES) AS ONE UNITED COUNTRY!
Slide # 8- Another interpretation- (all figuring Israel as key to the understanding)
1.) Egypt held Israel captive 400 yrs. 2.) Assyria- captured northern kingdom 2 Kings 17
3.) Babylon- captured southern kingdom 2 Kings 24 4.) Persia- produced wicked Haman,
5.) Greece- Produced Antiochus Epiphanes 6.) Rome- destroyed Jerusalem/Temple 70 AD
7.) Revived Holy Roman Empire- will bring worst persecution to Israel in history
Slide#9- The Antichrist
Dan.7: 7. After 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.
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.
Slide #10- 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.
13. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Slide #11-Rev.13:
4. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
5. And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. {Remember Stephen’s stoning!, Remember Nero throwing true 1st century Christians to the lions. All the apostles were martyred but John!}
Slide # 12-666 Rev.13:18—
18. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
By two separate documents
The first document issued in 1998 by the European commission was called Article 666, and which called for the immediate election of a High Representative for the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy who would have a "strong political profile", and be backed by "credible operational capabilities".
Quote: "666. In December the Vienna European Council expressed the opinion that the Secretary-General of the Council and High Representative for the CFSP should be appointed as soon as possible and be a personality with a strong political profile. It invited the Council to prepare common strategies on Russia, Ukraine, the Mediterranean region and the western Balkans, on the understanding that the first would be on Russia. Welcoming the new impetus given to the debate on a common European policy on security and defense, the European Council also noted that the CFSP (Common Foreign and Security Policy) should be backed by credible operational capabilities
Slide #13
The second document, called "Recommendation 666", which was drafted by Javier Solana in 2000
The Recommendation was adopted June 5, 2000 – just before the beginning of the French presidency. So the French presidency was acting on Recommendation 666 when it announced its decision to make the WEU Assembly the Interim European Security and Defense Assembly. They were also following it when they decided to maintain the relationship between the 10 Brussels Treaty Powers.
Number 12 of the Recommendation suggested that the High Representative be given something extraordinary. In the event of an emergency, the High Representative has the authority to step in and take control of the EU’s new military machinery. One would think such powers would be reserved for the EU presidency.
If a big enough crisis were to occur before the dangerous democratic deficit that now exists in the EU’s military wing is resolved, then the High Representative could step in and evoke his emergency powers given to him by Recommendation 666.
Javier Solana presides over Europe's Political Security Committee (PSC). All seated on that committee hold ambassador rank in the EU and serve at the pleasure of Javier Solana. All foreign ambassadors of the European Union entity (as opposed to its individual countries) as well as all EU military personnel are ultimately accountable to the Council of the European Union through Javier Solana. The EU's hope is that the pending new European constitution will strengthen and extend this European federal type set of structures.
Slide # 14-Dan.9:26...and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
Slide #15-Dan. 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Just before the 10th Anniversary (27-28th November 2005) of the Barcelona Process - known as EuroMed, Javier Solana commented on the progress made so far by Europe in the Middle East region. EuroMed itself is a framework of agreements between the European Union and 10 Middle Eastern nations. These are Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, the Palestinian Authority, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey. EuroMed is not a peace process in itself, but aims to resolve regional conflicts at the same time as providing political and economic reforms, helping to bring about stability. It was born out of the Oslo agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, and is thought of more as a means of supporting any real peace agreement that may come about in the future. Javier Solana states that the EU is planning to launch a "governance facility" (perhaps the ENP?) with Mediterranean countries. This will provide economic assistance for those states doing their best to bring about political and economic reforms (or "political control" from Europe). Just like the Middle East covenant that will be confirmed by the Antichrist in the book of Daniel, this "governance facility" is to last for seven years - by Javier's own admission.
Quote: "Many Mediterranean countries say they want to advance on the path of political reform but that it should be home-grown and that they need help. I agree. So I am pleased that the EU will launch a so-called governance facility. This will not be a cosmetic initiative, but one that, over seven years, will offer several hundred million euros to those countries that are making the greatest efforts concerning governance reform. They can then spend the extra money on the priorities they have set themselves. This is what I call a true partnership for political reform.
Another interesting article on the ENP. It gives a brief outline on how the ENP represents the future for EU expansion, an alternative to enlargement of the union, and explains its aims to
offer member states three things, prosperity, stability and security.
Quote: "Prosperity: A lack of economic prospects is linked to political unrest, radicalization and is one of the factors pushing people to do dangerous illegal migration. We address this through offering trade opportunities, support for macro-economic reforms, advice on investment-friendly business climates. By supporting the countries' own reform efforts, we also benefit the EU since our continued growth requires new markets. (Daniel 7:23, the fourth beast shall "devour the whole earth")Stability: Lack of democracy, lack of respect for the rule of law, governance failures, all contribute to instability. We offer advice and support on relevant reforms and offer deeper relations to those partners who make progress towards good governance, for the benefit of their own citizens. Democracy cannot be imposed, but it can and must be supported.Security: ENP enables us to bring together various internal and external instruments more effectively, working with our neighbours to tackle new threats e.g. cooperation against terrorism, tackling the root causes of extremism, thwarting international organized crime, contributing to resolving conflicts. All of these issues are major concerns both for our citizens and for those of our partners.

Kinti Holdings Group (KMLD) (OTCBB: KMLD) President, Frank Love, and Director Supriem David Rockefeller, states the following, "Kinti Holdings will be raising funds to go towards building the third Temple in Jerusalem in strict coordinance with The Temple Institute, Rabbi Hiam Richman and The Palestinian National Interest Committee (PNIC) and supporting Husam Bajis for President of Palestine. Prince Husam Bajis and the PNIC support our mission to build the Temple and to create a One Israel-Palestine state.
Slide #16-Dan.2
He will be of a kingdom that is divided, partly strong and partly weak, and shall not cleave to each other Daniel 2: {Scripture not on slide}
: 41. 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.
43. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
It's easy to see how Europe is a Revived Roman Empire that is "divided". The very fact there is a WEU of 10 official members and a broader EU of 25 members shows a Europe is still divided. The WEU, under the direction of Javier Solana, was meant to transfer its powers to the EU, but this never happened. It seems instead that the WEU has taken on a new role as being the new military arm of the European Union. For "partly strong and partly weak", the WEU nations are mainly wealthy and politically strong, while the new members of the EU are generally poor and politically weak and unstable.And the fact that the nations "will not cleave to one another" has been played out before all our eyes in the Iraq war, the problems of ratifying of the EU Constitution, amid other disagreements which seem to come up from time to time.
Slide #17- He will uproot three kings Daniel 7: 24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
Britain, France and Germany (officially called the E3) have apparently been jockeying for position to hold the lion's share of foreign policy until such times that the EU Constitution is ratified and comes into force. This ambition has been brought to light by the E3's recent dealings with Iran's nuclear programme. The EU Constitution will create the official position of EU Foreign Secretary, which Javier Solana, the EU High Representative currently holds in an unofficial capacity. These three nations would need to be "subdued" in order to give Javier Solana a clear shot at being the "one voice of Europe".

Slide #19- The Abomination of Desolation
2 Thess.2:3. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4. Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
Dan.9: 27. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week (7 years): and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
(http://kenraggio.com believes the image MAY be Mary! Check out the link to see why.)
Dan.11:31. And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.
32. And such as do wickedly against the covenant (OF GOD) shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34. Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
35. And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.—Remember Stephen

Slide #20-Matt. 24
15. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
21. For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. {HITLER’S 3RD REICH SHOWS THAT TITUS’ DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM IN 70 AD WAS NOT THE EVENT THIS SCRIPTURE IS ADDRESSING. As horrible as it was, it was not as bad as the holocaust.}
22. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. (dual meaning- rapture & The remnant Israel’s restoration, after the rapture)
23. Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Interesting timing of Mr.666’s plans...
He is also advocating the implementation of the EU's 2010 Headline Goal, effectively a military response group which can be deployed in the event of an emergency.
The timing of the formation of this Rapid Response Force is significant. This initiative will be being completed just as the European Neighbourhood Policy will be reaching its mid-term review. Europe will therefore have a force capable of being deployed anywhere in world within 5-10 days, should any particular country decide to step out of line. This is especially significant if the European Neighbourhood Policy does end up being the fulfilment of Daniel 9:27, because we know that the Antichrist does deploy a force in the Middle East, in response to a crisis there...
Slide # 21- The Other Beast -The False Prophet
Rev.13: 11. And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Slide #22-What the false prophet does...
12. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14. And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Addendum: The Pope is the leading religious figure whose endorsement is the most important one a future Antichrist "declaring himself god" (2The 2:4) would want in order to ensure his world following. Therefore, the pope is positioned better than anyone on the scene to fulfill this prophecy. As well, Catholicism already has a long history of making images (statues) for people to worship in front of, disregarding the Biblical injunction against doing this abomination to God. Not to mention that Catholicism already has a legacy of many documented miracles for the greater miracles predicted at the hand of the False Prophet to fit into.
The Ten Commandments as represented in a Catholic confirmation class does not contain the 2nd commandment, and the tenth has been divided into two.
Slide #23- Barclays Daily Study Bible says...
The second beast which figures in this chapter, the beast from the land, is the whole provincial organization of magistrates and priesthoods designed to enforce Caesar worship, which confronted the Christians with the choice either of saying, "Caesar is Lord," or of dying.
As long as Canon 1 of The Council of Trent 1563 and ratified by the Vatican 11 Council 1963 - is in force, no true Protestant can sleep in peace. This law which is still applicable today states: "If any one shall deny that the body and blood, together with the soul and divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ and therefore entire Christ, are truly really and substantially contained in the sacraments of the most holy Eucharist; and say that he is only in it as a sign or a figure - let him be accursed! (damned!). In fact, if any one disagrees with the so called seven sacraments of the holy mother church they are termed a heretic."
And as such, by order of the Prefect of the Holy Office (Grand Inquisitor) they can be arrested (usually by the civil authority), all assets confiscated, painfully tortured and then put to death. The title of the Prefect of the Holy Office has been changed to ‘Congregation of the Doctrine of Faith’ and was headed by one cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. In the year 2005AD Ratzinger was elected Pope!!!!
The use of the words: 'Doctrine of Faith' in this title has ominous repercussions to say the least! The authority of the Grand Inquisitor extends down to the local bishop. Saints, these laws have never been rescinded - BEWARE!
Keep in mind-Nimrod is the prototype of the False Prophet AND antichrist.
Slide #24-The False Prophet also...
Rev.13: 16. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

18. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Slide #25 - He’s “like” a lamb
In the Bible, the Lamb represents Christ, the Lamb of God. The pope takes the title "Vicar of Christ" meaning he is presented as Christ on Earth, in his place. So he is literally the most famous man on Earth to be "like a lamb", or like THE lamb.
In our last session the handout contained many quotes from the RCC stating that the Pope is actually god on the earth and has the power to do anything he wants, and no man has the right to question anything he does. (Go back and read. IDing the Roman Catholic Church as Mystery Babylon)
Slide #26 – Two Horns (Picture)
The pope's mitre literally has two horns. If you go to the Catholic Encyclopedia, they themselves call it a "two horned mitre"! Again, it's plain meaning is fulfilled in the pope. He is a like a lamb with two horns.

Opening the United Nations first ever High-Level Dialogue on interfaith and intercultural understanding, top officials from the world body today challenged Member States to embrace rather than reject what seemed “different” in members of other ethnic, religious or social groups, and to recognize that living together in a globalized world implied a commitment to promoting “unity in diversity” and to the free and honest exchange of ideas and knowledge.
Slide #29-One World Religion is Not Enough
By Wendy Griffith CBN News Reporter October 24, 2000
{CBN.com - -- Globalization It has become a pretty common buzzword in recent years. It seems everyone is talking about global economics, global politics, and now even global religion.
It may sound far-fetched, but many liberal organizations, including the United Nations, are pursuing the development of a one-world religious organization. Today, on the UN's 55th anniversary, CBN News takes a look at what's behind this push for a global religion}
"Maybe there is, instead of all these different Gods, maybe there's one God who manifests himself in different ways to different people," stated Ted Turner at the Summit.
CNN founder and billionaire Turner was the honorary chair of the World Religions Summit. Turner, known for his critical views on Biblical Christianity, promoted the new age concept that there are many ways to heaven. (Ted Turner donated $1BILLION to the UN to help achieve it’s agenda!)
"The thing that disturbed me was that my religion, the Christian sect, was very intolerant, not of religious freedom, but we thought we were the only ones going to heaven," he told the assembled leaders.
Although the movement's goals are clearly anti-Biblical, some liberal protestant denominations have become big supporters of a New World church. Among those leading the way is the United Religions Initiative, or U.R.I. Introduced in 1995 by San Francisco Episcopal bishop William Swing, the U.R.I. is active in nearly 60 countries worldwide and 33 states in the United States. The U.R.I. envisions itself as the future religious arm and spiritual partner of the United Nations.
Slide #30-Pope Benedict XVI posing with others of the Group
Supporters of a global religious voice have come down hard on evangelical Christians who refuse to adopt their new age agenda. For example, former UN Assistant Secretary-General Robert Muller said, fundamentalists are stuck in an "inflexible belief system and play an incendiary role in global conflicts." He goes on to say that "peace will be impossible without the taming of fundamentalism through a united religion that professes faithfulness only to the global spirituality and to the health of this planet."
From the Catholic News Service-online:
Pope to gather with 200 religious leaders at interfaith prayer service
WASHINGTON (CNS) -- When Pope Benedict XVI comes to the Pope John Paul II Cultural Center in Washington for an early-evening interfaith prayer service April 17, 2008 with Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, Muslims, Sikhs and representatives of other religions, space will be at a premium. There will be room for only about 200 people, according to Father James Massa, executive director of the U.S. bishops' Secretariat of Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs. Of those, about 50 will be reserved for Catholics, he added, with the rest allotted to representatives of the non-Christian religions participating in what is expected to be a 45-minute service. Among those expected to be invited are representatives of major religious organizations that either work with the Catholic Church in areas of common interest or are in dialogue with Catholic representatives. The pope also with gather with leaders from other Christian denominations at an ecumenical prayer service at a Catholic church in New York April 18.
U.R.I. founder Bishop Swing is also quoted as saying, " The time comes when common language and a common purpose for all religions and spiritual movements must be discerned and agreed upon. Merely respecting and understanding religions is not enough."
If global religion supporters do gain influence, many say a key object of worship will be creation - not the creator. The U.R.I. supports the push by former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev and Canadian billionaire Maurice Strong, founders of Green Cross International, to form an earth charter --a sort of Ten Commandments that will provide a guide for human behavior toward the environment in the 21st century. Gorbachev has said, "Nature is my God. Trees are my temples and forests are my cathedrals."
In his book “Perestroika” Mikhail Gorachev stated that Religious Exclusiveness will be extirpated.-If you don’t go along with this- WE WILL KILL YOU.

Christians, Muslims pledge to seek common ground
A wide range of Christian theologians and leaders have endorsed a document calling for increased efforts to work with Muslims for peace and justice. The move responds to an earlier call from Muslim leaders seeking common ground.
The new document, “Loving God and Neighbor Together: A Christian Response to ‘A Common Word Between Us and You,’ ” was signed by almost 300 Christians and published as an advertisement Nov. 18 in The New York Times.
“Given the deep fissures in the relations between Christians and Muslims today, the task before us is daunting. And the stakes are great,” the statement reads. “The future of the world depends on our ability as Christians and Muslims to live together in peace.”
Four scholars at Yale Divinity School initially released the document in mid-October, responding to an open letter by 138 Islamic clerics and scholars to Pope Benedict XVI about the need for partnerships aimed at peace.
The Yale document has expanded to include endorsements from such varied Christian voices as Rick Warren, author (A Purpose Driven Life) and pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif.; William A. Graham, dean of Harvard Divinity School; Richard Mouw, president of Fuller Theological Seminary; Robert Schuller, founder of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, Calif.; Richard Cizik, vice president of the National Association of Evangelicals; David Neff, editor-in -chief of the evangelical magazine Christianity Today; and John M. Buchanan, editor of the mainline Protestant magazine The Christian Century.
The Christian leaders acknowledge that people of their faith “have been guilty of sinning against our Muslim neighbors” and ask for forgiveness.
Organizers of the document hope it will lead to conferences and workshops involving some of the signatories as well as other Christian, Muslim and Jewish leaders.
According to Vatican II- Muslims will be saved because they are children of Abraham. They don’t need Jesus Christ, according to official Roman Catholic Doctrine, for the sake of Unity.
Many believe the Pope will be the antichrist...can the Pope be both antichrist and false prophet? For an interesting new developement, go here.

The Veri-chip by Digital Angel
"About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip inserts just under the skin and contains only a unique, 16-digit identifier. The chip itself does not contain any other data other than this unique electronic ID, nor does it contain any Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking capabilities. And unlike conventional forms of identification, the VeriChip™ cannot be lost, stolen, misplaced, or counterfeited. It is safe, secure, reversible, and always with you."
"To help mask the practice of this bodily invasion with a trendy, high-tech appearance, microchipping sensors are being referred to as "electronic tattoos" that can attach to human skin and stretch and move without breaking.
Supposedly the comparisons of this hair-thin electronic patch-like chip to an electronic tattoo are being made because of how it adheres to the skin like a temporary tattoo using only water.
The small chip is less than 50 micrometers thick, which is thinner in diameter than a human hair. It is being marketed as a "safe" and easy way to temporarily monitor the heart and brain in patients while replacing bulky medical equipment currently being used in hospitals.
This device uses micro-electronics technology called an epidermal electronic system (EES) and is said to be a development that will "transform" medical sensing technology, computer gaming and even spy operations, according to a study published last week.
The hair-thin chip was developed by an international team of researchers from the United States, China and Singapore and is described in the Journal of Science." for the entire article go here.

WHY DOES THE FALSE PROPHET AND THE ANTICHRIST WANT TO CONTROL YOUR FINANCES- 2 ANSWERS
Control and manipulation- powers of a god. The 4 Horses of Zech.6 and Rev.6 are forces of global power and domination-Possible interpretation: White horse- false religion, ultimately the Pope; religious domination; Black horse-economic domination; Red Horse- military domination; Pale horse-terrorism, manipulated death (Anthrax- School shootings- AIDS- terrorist acts of violence- ask a conspiracy theorist nut)-Irvin Baxter Jr. of ENDTIME.com teaches: The pale (chloros or green) horse is the “spirit” of Islam. Death and hell followed. The pale horse is given power over 1/4 of the earth.- all forms of domination.
The love of money is the root of all evil. The Golden Rule: Whoever owns the gold, makes the rules...He who controls the finances of a kingdom controls the kingdom. International Bankers (all secret society members- who know and enjoin the methods of Nimrod- and know where the methods come from) want to own it all. The Federal Reserve is not run by the Federal Government. It is owned by foreign bankers. There are many books on the matter. These same international financiers fund both sides of all major wars. They are pure profiteers who think nothing of sacrificing thousands upon thousands of young men’s lives to turn a profit.

WHAT THOSE "IN THE KNOW" SAY re: NDCC
· I wish that every citizen of every country in the free world and every slave behind the Iron Curtain might read this book.
Ezra Taft Benson — Former Secretary of Agriculture
· NDCC is an admirable job of amassing information to prove that communism is socialism and socialism (a plot to enslave the world) is not a movement of the downtrodden but a scheme supported and directed by the wealthiest of people.
If enough Americans read and act upon NDCC, they really can save the Republic from the conspirators — whose plans for the destruction of our country are galloping fast toward completion.
Dan Smoot — Former Assistant to J. Edgar Hoover
· Now that NDCC is available, I no longer need to answer "no" to the question which is often put to me, namely: "Mr. Dodd, is there a book which I can read so I can know what you know?" No higher praise is possible for this book.
Norman Dodd — Chief Investigator Reece Committee to Investigate Foundations
· This book concerns the way in which our nation and other nations are actually governed. As Benjamin Disaeli said, this is not the way in which most people think nations are governed. The whole subject of the Insiders who so largely control our political and economic lives is a fascinating mystery.
For the reader who is intelligent but uninitiated in the literature of superpolitics, I can think of no better introduction to the field than NDCC.
Dr. Medford Evans — Former Chief of Security for the Atom Bomb Project
· Since people of the Jewish faith have been the number one historical victims of the Communist Conspiracy, we wish every member of our faith would carefully read this book so they will become aware of the forces which often attempt to manipulate them.
Dr. Barney Finkel — President, The Jewish Right
· Whatever one dares to call the apparatus described and documented in this book, he will ignore it at his peril. 1972 may well be our last chance to defuse this destructive device. This book tells you how you can expose and demolish it.
Dean Clarence E. Manion — Former Dean Notre Dame law School

Slide #33- Penalty for taking the “Mark”
Rev.19:20. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
Slide #34-Rev.14:
9. And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10. The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11. And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

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 mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
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.
7. After 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.

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.
Slide #10- Rev.17:

13. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Slide #11-Rev.13:
4. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
5. And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. {Remember Stephen’s stoning!, Remember Nero throwing true 1st century Christians to the lions. All the apostles were martyred but John!}

By two separate documents
The first document issued in 1998 by the European commission was called Article 666, and which called for the immediate election of a High Representative for the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy who would have a "strong political profile", and be backed by "credible operational capabilities".
Quote: "666. In December the Vienna European Council expressed the opinion that the Secretary-General of the Council and High Representative for the CFSP should be appointed as soon as possible and be a personality with a strong political profile. It invited the Council to prepare common strategies on Russia, Ukraine, the Mediterranean region and the western Balkans, on the understanding that the first would be on Russia. Welcoming the new impetus given to the debate on a common European policy on security and defense, the European Council also noted that the CFSP (Common Foreign and Security Policy) should be backed by credible operational capabilities
Slide #13
The second document, called "Recommendation 666", which was drafted by Javier Solana in 2000
The Recommendation was adopted June 5, 2000 – just before the beginning of the French presidency. So the French presidency was acting on Recommendation 666 when it announced its decision to make the WEU Assembly the Interim European Security and Defense Assembly. They were also following it when they decided to maintain the relationship between the 10 Brussels Treaty Powers.
Number 12 of the Recommendation suggested that the High Representative be given something extraordinary. In the event of an emergency, the High Representative has the authority to step in and take control of the EU’s new military machinery. One would think such powers would be reserved for the EU presidency.
If a big enough crisis were to occur before the dangerous democratic deficit that now exists in the EU’s military wing is resolved, then the High Representative could step in and evoke his emergency powers given to him by Recommendation 666.
Javier Solana presides over Europe's Political Security Committee (PSC). All seated on that committee hold ambassador rank in the EU and serve at the pleasure of Javier Solana. All foreign ambassadors of the European Union entity (as opposed to its individual countries) as well as all EU military personnel are ultimately accountable to the Council of the European Union through Javier Solana. The EU's hope is that the pending new European constitution will strengthen and extend this European federal type set of structures.
Slide # 14-Dan.9:26...and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
Slide #15-Dan. 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Just before the 10th Anniversary (27-28th November 2005) of the Barcelona Process - known as EuroMed, Javier Solana commented on the progress made so far by Europe in the Middle East region. EuroMed itself is a framework of agreements between the European Union and 10 Middle Eastern nations. These are Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, the Palestinian Authority, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey. EuroMed is not a peace process in itself, but aims to resolve regional conflicts at the same time as providing political and economic reforms, helping to bring about stability. It was born out of the Oslo agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, and is thought of more as a means of supporting any real peace agreement that may come about in the future. Javier Solana states that the EU is planning to launch a "governance facility" (perhaps the ENP?) with Mediterranean countries. This will provide economic assistance for those states doing their best to bring about political and economic reforms (or "political control" from Europe). Just like the Middle East covenant that will be confirmed by the Antichrist in the book of Daniel, this "governance facility" is to last for seven years - by Javier's own admission.
Quote: "Many Mediterranean countries say they want to advance on the path of political reform but that it should be home-grown and that they need help. I agree. So I am pleased that the EU will launch a so-called governance facility. This will not be a cosmetic initiative, but one that, over seven years, will offer several hundred million euros to those countries that are making the greatest efforts concerning governance reform. They can then spend the extra money on the priorities they have set themselves. This is what I call a true partnership for political reform.
Another interesting article on the ENP. It gives a brief outline on how the ENP represents the future for EU expansion, an alternative to enlargement of the union, and explains its aims to
offer member states three things, prosperity, stability and security.
Quote: "Prosperity: A lack of economic prospects is linked to political unrest, radicalization and is one of the factors pushing people to do dangerous illegal migration. We address this through offering trade opportunities, support for macro-economic reforms, advice on investment-friendly business climates. By supporting the countries' own reform efforts, we also benefit the EU since our continued growth requires new markets. (Daniel 7:23, the fourth beast shall "devour the whole earth")Stability: Lack of democracy, lack of respect for the rule of law, governance failures, all contribute to instability. We offer advice and support on relevant reforms and offer deeper relations to those partners who make progress towards good governance, for the benefit of their own citizens. Democracy cannot be imposed, but it can and must be supported.Security: ENP enables us to bring together various internal and external instruments more effectively, working with our neighbours to tackle new threats e.g. cooperation against terrorism, tackling the root causes of extremism, thwarting international organized crime, contributing to resolving conflicts. All of these issues are major concerns both for our citizens and for those of our partners.

Slide #16-Dan.2
He will be of a kingdom that is divided, partly strong and partly weak, and shall not cleave to each other Daniel 2: {Scripture not on slide}
: 41. 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.
43. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
It's easy to see how Europe is a Revived Roman Empire that is "divided". The very fact there is a WEU of 10 official members and a broader EU of 25 members shows a Europe is still divided. The WEU, under the direction of Javier Solana, was meant to transfer its powers to the EU, but this never happened. It seems instead that the WEU has taken on a new role as being the new military arm of the European Union. For "partly strong and partly weak", the WEU nations are mainly wealthy and politically strong, while the new members of the EU are generally poor and politically weak and unstable.And the fact that the nations "will not cleave to one another" has been played out before all our eyes in the Iraq war, the problems of ratifying of the EU Constitution, amid other disagreements which seem to come up from time to time.
Slide #17- He will uproot three kings Daniel 7: 24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
Britain, France and Germany (officially called the E3) have apparently been jockeying for position to hold the lion's share of foreign policy until such times that the EU Constitution is ratified and comes into force. This ambition has been brought to light by the E3's recent dealings with Iran's nuclear programme. The EU Constitution will create the official position of EU Foreign Secretary, which Javier Solana, the EU High Representative currently holds in an unofficial capacity. These three nations would need to be "subdued" in order to give Javier Solana a clear shot at being the "one voice of Europe".

33. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34. Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.

24. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Interesting timing of Mr.666’s plans...
He is also advocating the implementation of the EU's 2010 Headline Goal, effectively a military response group which can be deployed in the event of an emergency.
The timing of the formation of this Rapid Response Force is significant. This initiative will be being completed just as the European Neighbourhood Policy will be reaching its mid-term review. Europe will therefore have a force capable of being deployed anywhere in world within 5-10 days, should any particular country decide to step out of line. This is especially significant if the European Neighbourhood Policy does end up being the fulfilment of Daniel 9:27, because we know that the Antichrist does deploy a force in the Middle East, in response to a crisis there...
Slide # 21- The Other Beast -The False Prophet
Rev.13: 11. And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Slide #22-What the false prophet does...
12. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14. And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Addendum: The Pope is the leading religious figure whose endorsement is the most important one a future Antichrist "declaring himself god" (2The 2:4) would want in order to ensure his world following. Therefore, the pope is positioned better than anyone on the scene to fulfill this prophecy. As well, Catholicism already has a long history of making images (statues) for people to worship in front of, disregarding the Biblical injunction against doing this abomination to God. Not to mention that Catholicism already has a legacy of many documented miracles for the greater miracles predicted at the hand of the False Prophet to fit into.
The Ten Commandments as represented in a Catholic confirmation class does not contain the 2nd commandment, and the tenth has been divided into two.
Slide #23- Barclays Daily Study Bible says...
The second beast which figures in this chapter, the beast from the land, is the whole provincial organization of magistrates and priesthoods designed to enforce Caesar worship, which confronted the Christians with the choice either of saying, "Caesar is Lord," or of dying.
As long as Canon 1 of The Council of Trent 1563 and ratified by the Vatican 11 Council 1963 - is in force, no true Protestant can sleep in peace. This law which is still applicable today states: "If any one shall deny that the body and blood, together with the soul and divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ and therefore entire Christ, are truly really and substantially contained in the sacraments of the most holy Eucharist; and say that he is only in it as a sign or a figure - let him be accursed! (damned!). In fact, if any one disagrees with the so called seven sacraments of the holy mother church they are termed a heretic."
And as such, by order of the Prefect of the Holy Office (Grand Inquisitor) they can be arrested (usually by the civil authority), all assets confiscated, painfully tortured and then put to death. The title of the Prefect of the Holy Office has been changed to ‘Congregation of the Doctrine of Faith’ and was headed by one cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. In the year 2005AD Ratzinger was elected Pope!!!!
The use of the words: 'Doctrine of Faith' in this title has ominous repercussions to say the least! The authority of the Grand Inquisitor extends down to the local bishop. Saints, these laws have never been rescinded - BEWARE!
Keep in mind-Nimrod is the prototype of the False Prophet AND antichrist.
Slide #24-The False Prophet also...
Rev.13: 16. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17. And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Slide #25 - He’s “like” a lamb
In the Bible, the Lamb represents Christ, the Lamb of God. The pope takes the title "Vicar of Christ" meaning he is presented as Christ on Earth, in his place. So he is literally the most famous man on Earth to be "like a lamb", or like THE lamb.
In our last session the handout contained many quotes from the RCC stating that the Pope is actually god on the earth and has the power to do anything he wants, and no man has the right to question anything he does. (Go back and read. IDing the Roman Catholic Church as Mystery Babylon)
Slide #26 – Two Horns (Picture)
The pope's mitre literally has two horns. If you go to the Catholic Encyclopedia, they themselves call it a "two horned mitre"! Again, it's plain meaning is fulfilled in the pope. He is a like a lamb with two horns.
Slide #27- Spoke like a Dragon (dragon is Satan-who will empower to perform apparent miracle of pulling down fire from heaven)
1 Tim. 4:1. Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2. Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3. Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
Slide #28 – Alliance of Civilizations-
Top officials from the United Nations challenged Member States to embrace rather than reject what seemed “different” in members of other ethnic, religious or social groups, and to recognize that living together in a globalized world implied a commitment to promoting “unity in diversity” and to the free and honest exchange of ideas and knowledge. Opening the United Nations first ever High-Level Dialogue on interfaith and intercultural understanding, top officials from the world body today challenged Member States to embrace rather than reject what seemed “different” in members of other ethnic, religious or social groups, and to recognize that living together in a globalized world implied a commitment to promoting “unity in diversity” and to the free and honest exchange of ideas and knowledge.
Slide #29-One World Religion is Not Enough
By Wendy Griffith CBN News Reporter October 24, 2000
{CBN.com - -- Globalization It has become a pretty common buzzword in recent years. It seems everyone is talking about global economics, global politics, and now even global religion.
It may sound far-fetched, but many liberal organizations, including the United Nations, are pursuing the development of a one-world religious organization. Today, on the UN's 55th anniversary, CBN News takes a look at what's behind this push for a global religion}
"Maybe there is, instead of all these different Gods, maybe there's one God who manifests himself in different ways to different people," stated Ted Turner at the Summit.
CNN founder and billionaire Turner was the honorary chair of the World Religions Summit. Turner, known for his critical views on Biblical Christianity, promoted the new age concept that there are many ways to heaven. (Ted Turner donated $1BILLION to the UN to help achieve it’s agenda!)
"The thing that disturbed me was that my religion, the Christian sect, was very intolerant, not of religious freedom, but we thought we were the only ones going to heaven," he told the assembled leaders.
Although the movement's goals are clearly anti-Biblical, some liberal protestant denominations have become big supporters of a New World church. Among those leading the way is the United Religions Initiative, or U.R.I. Introduced in 1995 by San Francisco Episcopal bishop William Swing, the U.R.I. is active in nearly 60 countries worldwide and 33 states in the United States. The U.R.I. envisions itself as the future religious arm and spiritual partner of the United Nations.
Slide #30-Pope Benedict XVI posing with others of the Group
Supporters of a global religious voice have come down hard on evangelical Christians who refuse to adopt their new age agenda. For example, former UN Assistant Secretary-General Robert Muller said, fundamentalists are stuck in an "inflexible belief system and play an incendiary role in global conflicts." He goes on to say that "peace will be impossible without the taming of fundamentalism through a united religion that professes faithfulness only to the global spirituality and to the health of this planet."From the Catholic News Service-online:
Pope to gather with 200 religious leaders at interfaith prayer service
WASHINGTON (CNS) -- When Pope Benedict XVI comes to the Pope John Paul II Cultural Center in Washington for an early-evening interfaith prayer service April 17, 2008 with Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, Muslims, Sikhs and representatives of other religions, space will be at a premium. There will be room for only about 200 people, according to Father James Massa, executive director of the U.S. bishops' Secretariat of Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs. Of those, about 50 will be reserved for Catholics, he added, with the rest allotted to representatives of the non-Christian religions participating in what is expected to be a 45-minute service. Among those expected to be invited are representatives of major religious organizations that either work with the Catholic Church in areas of common interest or are in dialogue with Catholic representatives. The pope also with gather with leaders from other Christian denominations at an ecumenical prayer service at a Catholic church in New York April 18.
U.R.I. founder Bishop Swing is also quoted as saying, " The time comes when common language and a common purpose for all religions and spiritual movements must be discerned and agreed upon. Merely respecting and understanding religions is not enough."
If global religion supporters do gain influence, many say a key object of worship will be creation - not the creator. The U.R.I. supports the push by former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev and Canadian billionaire Maurice Strong, founders of Green Cross International, to form an earth charter --a sort of Ten Commandments that will provide a guide for human behavior toward the environment in the 21st century. Gorbachev has said, "Nature is my God. Trees are my temples and forests are my cathedrals."
In his book “Perestroika” Mikhail Gorachev stated that Religious Exclusiveness will be extirpated.-If you don’t go along with this- WE WILL KILL YOU.

Christians, Muslims pledge to seek common ground
A wide range of Christian theologians and leaders have endorsed a document calling for increased efforts to work with Muslims for peace and justice. The move responds to an earlier call from Muslim leaders seeking common ground.
The new document, “Loving God and Neighbor Together: A Christian Response to ‘A Common Word Between Us and You,’ ” was signed by almost 300 Christians and published as an advertisement Nov. 18 in The New York Times.
“Given the deep fissures in the relations between Christians and Muslims today, the task before us is daunting. And the stakes are great,” the statement reads. “The future of the world depends on our ability as Christians and Muslims to live together in peace.”
Four scholars at Yale Divinity School initially released the document in mid-October, responding to an open letter by 138 Islamic clerics and scholars to Pope Benedict XVI about the need for partnerships aimed at peace.
The Yale document has expanded to include endorsements from such varied Christian voices as Rick Warren, author (A Purpose Driven Life) and pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif.; William A. Graham, dean of Harvard Divinity School; Richard Mouw, president of Fuller Theological Seminary; Robert Schuller, founder of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, Calif.; Richard Cizik, vice president of the National Association of Evangelicals; David Neff, editor-in -chief of the evangelical magazine Christianity Today; and John M. Buchanan, editor of the mainline Protestant magazine The Christian Century.
The Christian leaders acknowledge that people of their faith “have been guilty of sinning against our Muslim neighbors” and ask for forgiveness.
Organizers of the document hope it will lead to conferences and workshops involving some of the signatories as well as other Christian, Muslim and Jewish leaders.
According to Vatican II- Muslims will be saved because they are children of Abraham. They don’t need Jesus Christ, according to official Roman Catholic Doctrine, for the sake of Unity.
Many believe the Pope will be the antichrist...can the Pope be both antichrist and false prophet? For an interesting new developement, go here.
Mark of the Beast
Slide #31- Rev.13:
16. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

The Veri-chip by Digital Angel"About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip inserts just under the skin and contains only a unique, 16-digit identifier. The chip itself does not contain any other data other than this unique electronic ID, nor does it contain any Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking capabilities. And unlike conventional forms of identification, the VeriChip™ cannot be lost, stolen, misplaced, or counterfeited. It is safe, secure, reversible, and always with you."

Supposedly the comparisons of this hair-thin electronic patch-like chip to an electronic tattoo are being made because of how it adheres to the skin like a temporary tattoo using only water.
The small chip is less than 50 micrometers thick, which is thinner in diameter than a human hair. It is being marketed as a "safe" and easy way to temporarily monitor the heart and brain in patients while replacing bulky medical equipment currently being used in hospitals.
This device uses micro-electronics technology called an epidermal electronic system (EES) and is said to be a development that will "transform" medical sensing technology, computer gaming and even spy operations, according to a study published last week.
The hair-thin chip was developed by an international team of researchers from the United States, China and Singapore and is described in the Journal of Science." for the entire article go here.

WHY DOES THE FALSE PROPHET AND THE ANTICHRIST WANT TO CONTROL YOUR FINANCES- 2 ANSWERS
Control and manipulation- powers of a god. The 4 Horses of Zech.6 and Rev.6 are forces of global power and domination-Possible interpretation: White horse- false religion, ultimately the Pope; religious domination; Black horse-economic domination; Red Horse- military domination; Pale horse-terrorism, manipulated death (Anthrax- School shootings- AIDS- terrorist acts of violence- ask a conspiracy theorist nut)-Irvin Baxter Jr. of ENDTIME.com teaches: The pale (chloros or green) horse is the “spirit” of Islam. Death and hell followed. The pale horse is given power over 1/4 of the earth.- all forms of domination.
The love of money is the root of all evil. The Golden Rule: Whoever owns the gold, makes the rules...He who controls the finances of a kingdom controls the kingdom. International Bankers (all secret society members- who know and enjoin the methods of Nimrod- and know where the methods come from) want to own it all. The Federal Reserve is not run by the Federal Government. It is owned by foreign bankers. There are many books on the matter. These same international financiers fund both sides of all major wars. They are pure profiteers who think nothing of sacrificing thousands upon thousands of young men’s lives to turn a profit.

WHAT THOSE "IN THE KNOW" SAY re: NDCC
· I wish that every citizen of every country in the free world and every slave behind the Iron Curtain might read this book.
Ezra Taft Benson — Former Secretary of Agriculture
· NDCC is an admirable job of amassing information to prove that communism is socialism and socialism (a plot to enslave the world) is not a movement of the downtrodden but a scheme supported and directed by the wealthiest of people.
If enough Americans read and act upon NDCC, they really can save the Republic from the conspirators — whose plans for the destruction of our country are galloping fast toward completion.
Dan Smoot — Former Assistant to J. Edgar Hoover
· Now that NDCC is available, I no longer need to answer "no" to the question which is often put to me, namely: "Mr. Dodd, is there a book which I can read so I can know what you know?" No higher praise is possible for this book.
Norman Dodd — Chief Investigator Reece Committee to Investigate Foundations
· This book concerns the way in which our nation and other nations are actually governed. As Benjamin Disaeli said, this is not the way in which most people think nations are governed. The whole subject of the Insiders who so largely control our political and economic lives is a fascinating mystery.
For the reader who is intelligent but uninitiated in the literature of superpolitics, I can think of no better introduction to the field than NDCC.
Dr. Medford Evans — Former Chief of Security for the Atom Bomb Project
· Since people of the Jewish faith have been the number one historical victims of the Communist Conspiracy, we wish every member of our faith would carefully read this book so they will become aware of the forces which often attempt to manipulate them.
Dr. Barney Finkel — President, The Jewish Right
· Whatever one dares to call the apparatus described and documented in this book, he will ignore it at his peril. 1972 may well be our last chance to defuse this destructive device. This book tells you how you can expose and demolish it.
Dean Clarence E. Manion — Former Dean Notre Dame law School
You may have received this book through the mail it is a gift from a concerned American who has read the book. The donor believes that the survival of our country hinges on the public becoming aware of the material contained here in. All he asks is that you read the book Thank you.
Slide #33- Penalty for taking the “Mark”
Rev.19:20. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
Slide #34-Rev.14:
9. And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10. The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11. And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
