�� The Antichrist

After the Rapture Doctrine became common fifty to seventy five years ago many began to speculate as to who the anti‑Christ was. In the 1920's and 1930's they named Joseph Stalin or Benito Mussolini as the anti‑Christ. Thousands of tracts and books were written and published about those two men. Then with the rise of Hitler others began to name him as the great anti‑Christ.

"For THERE ARE MANY UNRULY AND VAIN TALKERS AND DECEIVERS, SPECIALLY THEY OF THE CIRCUMCISION (Jews): WHOSE MOUTHS MUST BE STOPPED, WHO SUBVERT WHOLE HOUSES, TEACHING THINGS WHICH THEY OUGHT NOT, FOR FILTHY LUCRE'S SAKE (In Matthew 23:15, we are told that the Jews make any proselytes two fold more the children of hell than themselves, therefore, is this not a perfect description of the so‑called Judeo‑Christian clergy that is on television?). One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, THE CRETIANS ARE ALWAY LIARS (The Jews are always lying and deceiving, as Christ said in John 8:44), evil beasts, slow bellies. This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; NOT GIVING HEED TO JEWISH FABLES, AND COMMANDMENTS OF MEN (Today known as the Learned Elders of Zion), THAT TURN FROM THE TRUTH. Unto the pure all things are pure: but UNTO THEM THAT ARE DEFILED AND UNBELIEVING IS NOTHING PURE; BUT EVEN THEIR MIND AND CONSCIENCE IS DEFILED. THEY PROFESS THAT THEY KNOW GOD (Some even profess there is no God); BUT IN WORKS THEY DENY HIM, BEING ABOMINABLE, AND DISOBEDIENT, AND UNTO EVERY GOOD WORK REPROBATE.�� (Titus 1:10‑16)

Yahweh told us that His people, meaning the White Israel people, are destroyed for lack of knowledge:

Hosea 4:6‑10:

�My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame. They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity. And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings. For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.�

The Jews have fed the Judeo-Christians so full of it that they don�t have an idea as to what the word Antichrist actually means. This study will show you what is meant by the Antichrist in the Scriptures; especially relating to the future.

While many don�t like to admit to the fact but the Roman Catholic Church has been under the absolute control of the Jews for many centuries, and have been ruled by a person known as the Black Pope. The Black Pope�s existence has only recently been released to the general public; but it was not released as to his power and that he is ALWAYS A JEW AND HAS BEEN SINCE THE INSTIGATION OF THAT OFFICE.

Turn now to the writings of John, the only Biblical writer who actually uses the word �Antichrist.� Writing at a time when many novel doctrines were making the rounds, the burden of John�s message was for Christians to hold the original faith as taught at the BEGINNING:

�That which was from the BEGINNING, which we have heard (from Christ)...declare we unto you...This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you.� (1 John 1:1-5) He speaks of the instruction they �had from the BEGINNING� and the word which they had �heard from the BEGINNING.� (1 John 2:7) �Let that therefore abide in you which you have heard from the BEGINNING. If that which you have heard from the BEGINNING shall remain in you, you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.� (1 John 2:24); �the message that you heard from the BEGINNING.� (1 John 3:11). He mentions �that which we had from the BEGINNING.� (2 John 5) and �as you have heard from the BEGINNING, you should walk in it.� (2 John 5:6)

The reason John placed this strong emphasis on that which was taught �at the beginning,� was because many had departed form the original faith into false doctrines. These who had departed he termed �Antichrists.�

�Little children...you have heard that ANTICHRIST shall come, even now are there many Antichrists...They went out FROM us...� (1 John 2:8-19)

These �Antichrists;� a type of the Antichrist that was to come, were not atheists. They were people who professed to be Christians. We agree with the Scofield note: �Went out from us,� that is DOCTRINALLY. Doubtless then, as now, the deniers of the Son still called themselves Christians.� (Scofield, Scofield Reference Bible (New York, Oxford University Press, 1917), p. 1322) If then, the ones that John used as a type of the Antichrist that was to come were PROFESSING Christians; but who had departed into erroneous doctrines, why should we look for Antichrist somewhere outside the realm of professing Christianity? Even Scofield, in at least one note, said:

�The �little horn� is an apostate...from CHRISTIANITY, not Judaism.� (Scofield, Scofield Reference Bible (New York, Oxford University Press, 1917), p. 918)

The next �Antichrist� passage is 1 John 2:22-26:

�Who is a liar but he that DENIETH that Jesus is the Christ? He is ANTICHRIST, that DENIETH the Father and the Son.� But it was not a barefaced denial, for John mentions the SEDUCTIVE nature of these teachings. Some, upon reading the word �denied,� assume the Antichrist will be an atheist; one who denies the EXISTENCE of God, or at least an infidel. We hear talk about Antichrist being �the World�s number one ATHEIST,� (Howard C. Estep, Antichrist�s Kingdom (Colton, CA: World Prophetic Ministry), p. 24, (booklet)) or that �the blasphemy of the little horn seems...to be downright, barefaced INFIDELITY.� (V.K. Van De Venter, Some Errors of Futurism (booklet, 1936) quoting Maitland, p. 8) But the early Christians never herd of an INFIDEL Antichrist. Apparently this idea was first taught in a NINTH CENTURY commentary by Berengaud. (H. Grattan Guinness, Romanism and the Reformation (Blackwood, NJ: Old Fashioned Prophecy Magazine 1967; reprint of 1887 edition) p. 125)

Those �Antichrists� that John mentioned were not atheists, but professing Christians. Their teachings were �seducing� Christians into counterfeit doctrines. (Just as the Judeo-Christian ministers do today) Teaching atheism would not have this seductive effect, for it does not even pretend to be a Christian doctrine. What, then, is meant by the statement that they DENIED the Father and the Son? It was not that they denied the existence of God. They denied Him in other ways; mainly by claiming to be Christians, yet adhering to false doctrines which were not the original teachings of the church. This point becomes clear when we see how this word �deny� was used IN THE SCRIPTURES.

1). Jude, like John, wrote of the apostasy that was creeping in: �It was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that you should earnestly contend for THE faith that was once delivered unto the saints.� Why?

�For there are certain men crept in UNAWARES...turning the grace of our Go into lasciviousness, and DENYING the only Lord god, and our Lord Jesus Christ.� (Jude 3, 4)

Notice that these false teachers were so deceptive with their novel doctrines that they �crept in unawares.� By their erroneous and counterfeit doctrines, they DENIED the Lord. Nothing is said that would indicate these apostates denied the existence of God. If they had come in among the Christians denying the existence of God, in no way could they have come in unawares. (Do not the Judeo-Christian clergy do the same thing today. Just as Christ said that they would come in His name and deceive many. (Matthew 24:5, 11; Mark 13:6)

2). Peter likewise wrote of apostasy that would develop within the church.

�There shall be false teachers AMONG YOU, who privily (secretly, in a hidden way) shall bring in damnable heresies, even DENYING the Lord that BOUGHT them...and many shall follow their pernicious ways.� (2 Peter 2:1-2)

Clearly these false teachers were not denying the existence of God, for that would not deceive these Christians to whom Peter wrote. The way they denied Him was by teaching erroneous and deceptive doctrines. (The doctrines of men, the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion) On an earlier occasion, Peter said that the Jews delivered up Christ

�and DENIED him in the presence of Pilate...they DENIED the Holy One and the Just...and killed the Prince of life, whom god hath raised from the dead.� Acts 3:13-15)

The ones who denied Christ did not deny His EXISTENCE. They denied Him by rejecting His claims and crucifying Him. Those that denied Him were the Jews; whom Christ said were the children of the devil in John 8:44.

3). Paul used the word �deny� in connection with those who taught false doctrines among Christians. They are mentioned as �deceivers...who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not.� Such were not �sound in the faith;� but gave heed to doctrines that cause me to

�turn from the truth...They profess that thy know God; but in works they DENY him, being abominable, and disobedient.� (Titus 1:10-16)

Having considered the word �denied� as used by Jude, Peter, Paul, and John, it is clear that atheism is not meant. Those who denied the Lord did so by NOT fully following the original Christian faith in word and deed. These were called �Antichrists.�

Our next �Antichrist� passage 1 John 4:1-6:

�Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many FALSE PROPHETS are gone out into the world...every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST, whereof you have heard that it should come; and even now ALREADY is it in the world...They are of the world...We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth US (the Apostles); he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.�

This is further demonstrated in Christ�s own words:

John 8:47: �He that is of God heareth God's words: YE (Jews) THEREFORE HEAR THEM NOT, BECAUSE YE ARE NOT OF GOD.� KJV

Since John and the other apostles had received their message FROM CHRIST HIMSELF, he could say that those who believed their message were of God. Those who did not stand for the apostolic faith were �false prophets,� their inspiration not coming from the Holy Spirit, but the Antichrist spirit. John was not dealing here with such things as political corruption, alcoholism, prostitution, brutality, or crime in the streets. Christians could easily recognize these for what they were. What John dealt with here was the DECEPTION of counterfeit doctrines.

John warned the people to continue in the truth �as you have heard from the beginning;� the apostolic doctrine, �for many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a DECEIVER and an ANTICHRIST...whosoever abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.� (2 John 7-9)

Whatever this particular teaching may have been; that Jesus had not come �in the flesh;� was not a denial of the EXISTENCE of Christ (for this would not DECEIVE Christians). Instead, it was apparently an erroneous and counterfeit view regarding His incarnation in the flesh. Consider the following:

The Ebionites, according to Irenaeus, taught that Christ was not born by a supernatural conception, but regarded Him as a mere man. The Gnostics called in question the reality of Christ�s human nature, believing the historical Christ was a mask of the real Christ, the heavenly Christ, not Christ incarnate in flesh. The followers of Cerinthus believed there was a distinction between the heavenly Christ and Jesus of Nazareth; that the two were connected in a temporary union. The Docetists taught that Christ�s body was merely a phantom, not actually human flesh. The Adoptionists and the Followers of Paul of Samosata thought that Jesus had been born a man, but achieved divinity through moral perfection.

Though all of these groups taught false views concerning the incarnation of Christ in the flesh, none of them were atheists. They were �Antichrists� because they ad departed from the faith that was taught �at the beginning.� The fact that John especially mentioned a prominent false doctrine OF THAT TIME; the teaching that Jesus had not come in the flesh, does not infer that Antichrist would be LIMITED in his denial to the same doctrines that those apostates held. Neither those who old the futurist view or those who hold the fulfilled view, limit the errors of Antichrist to this one point of doctrine.

Some suppose John�s use of the word �Antichrist� simply means a person AGAINST Christ. But millions of people have been AGAINST Christ. Paul, before his conversion, was against Christ. Jews, pagans, and members of non-Christian religions in varying degrees have all been against Christ. However, if John used the word �Antichrists� concerning people who professed to be Christians; but who were against Christ because of their false doctrines; we have a VERY SPECIFIC POINT OF IDENTIFICATION. Since THESE �Antichrists� were a type of Antichrist to come, there is a very strong inference that Antichrist would profess to be a Christian, supposedly FOR Christ, yet actually AGAINST Him because of false doctrine.

It is well established that the word �Antichrist� can mean (1) AGAINST (in opposition) to Christ, (2) INSTEAD OF (in the place of) Christ, or (3) BOTH meanings. As Elliott has written: �When ANTI is compounded with the noun signifying an agent of any kind, or functionary, the compound word either signifies a vice-functionary, or a functionary of the same kind opposing, or sometimes both.� (Edward B. Elliott, Horae Apocalyticae (London: Seeley, Burnside, and Seeley, 1846), Book 3, p. 92)

However, the death of Mussolini in 1945 ended their speculation on them, but they continued with Stalin. Then Stalin died, so a few began to point their finger at Mao Zedong (translated into English and known as such to most Americans as Mao tse Tung) of China. But most, by that time, having learned their lessons with the deaths of Stalin, Mussolini and Hitler began to teach just anti‑Christ.

Thus eliminating the necessity of naming a man who might die before their false teachings were fulfilled; So they did not attempt any longer to identify him with any known world figure. That way they could still teach their "Fairy Tale" of false and damnable heresies and not be exposed for the liars and hypocrites they are, when their particular anti‑Christ passed from the scene.

Oh, there are some today who still attempt to get ahead of the world and make their own personal identifications of the anti‑Christ. Such as the story which has been circulating in the Christian World for several years now; that the anti‑Christ has been born in Egypt and is just awaiting the proper time to come forth and reveal himself. Boy what a bunch of bologna. This so they can later say, supposedly in Heaven I told you so! When that certain one is revealed as the anti‑Christ. But they are all making the same error.

The Bible teaches no such thing as one individual anti‑Christ. John is the only writer of the New Testament who uses the term, in his Epistles, and he wrote them some 1900 years ago, and he said,

"and as ye have heard that Antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists...Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? HE IS ANTICHRIST (anyone who denies that Jesus is the Christ is an anti‑Christ), that denieth the Father and the Son." (1 John 2:18‑22)

Then John says,

"And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and THIS IS THAT SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and EVEN NOW ALREADY IS IN THE WORLD (It should be obvious to any thinking Christian that John is here relating that he is speaking of a RELIGIOUS SYSTEM which is Judaism)." (1 John 4:3)

Then John speaks once more concerning this spirit of anti‑ Christ when he said,

"For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. (CAN THERE BE ANY DOUBT THAT JOHN IS TALKING ABOUT THE JEWS AND THEIR RELIGION OF JUDAISM. BECAUSE THEY HAVE EVER DENIED THAT JESUS CHRIST CAME IN THE FLESH) This is a deceiver and an Antichrist." (2 John 7)

Therefore, we can clearly see that when John gave the definition of an anti‑Christ it was anyone who denies the Lord Jesus Christ and that He came to earth in a flesh body, and was the Son of God, dwelt among us. That such a person or religion is, in fact, anti‑Christ. Which should identify to Christians that there are millions of anti‑Christs in the world. But upon close study it will be found that only one religion is truly anti‑Christ by definition, and that religion is Judaism!

No, THE ANTI-CHRIST IS NOT JUST ONE INDIVIDUAL man and possibly neither is the man of sin as spoken of in Second Thessalonians Two. The man of sin is a prophetic entity just as the woman in scarlet in Revelation seventeen, is not just one individual woman, but a prophetic entity, so is the man of sin.

Now let's read a few descriptive phrases of that man of sin. Then we will present you with some thoughts that might be quite different than you have ever considered before, about what the "man of sin" could be.

And how this prophecy about him could be fulfilled and is perhaps being fulfilled right now at the present time. While most of the world, in fact, most of Christendom is ignorant of its fulfillment.

However, the people of Christendom, of course, will eventually be apprized of its fulfillment. They will have to be so that he can be revealed to them, so that the prophecy can be completely fulfilled.

In verse 3 he is called the son of perdition. The word perdition is the Greek word "Apoleia" which means "destruction." (#684 Strong�s Exhaustive Concordance) So in other words the "son of perdition" is the "son of destruction" or the cause of destruction.

In verse 4,

"Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God."

This phrase "sitteth in the temple of God" has fooled many. Since all Bible Students and Ministers know that there is no stone Temple of God anymore as the Romans destroyed the one in Palestine in A.D. 70, some have tried to say, "this cannot come to pass until someone rebuilds a stone temple, to God in Jerusalem again."

Which in itself opens up all sorts of speculations about how the Jews will rebuild the old temple and then this great anti‑Christ will come and sit in it; and take over the rulership of the world, and be worshiped while he is in that great new temple.

But what is the Temple of God? What could truly be called the Temple of God by Paul, a Christian Israelite, writing to the Thessalonians. Well, every Israelite should know, but most do not.

"Know ye not that YE are the TEMPLE OF GOD, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile (which is the Greek word 'Phtheiro' from 'Phthio' which means 'to ruin' or 'destroy' (#5351 Strong�s Exhaustive Concordance)) the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are." (1 Corinthians 3:16‑17)

Then we find,

"WHAT? KNOW YE NOT THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST." (1 Corinthians 6:19)

Then in Second Corinthians Six Paul is exhorting believers to separate themselves from unbelievers and from infidels as he writes,

"And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for YE ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD." (2 Corinthians 6:16)

Then he explains, "as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them."

Paul is quoting God's statement to the Israelites through the prophets Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and others that God would dwell in Israel. Today, we have so little preaching on the true identity of Israel that most do not realize that God does really "dwell in Israel."

Most Christians realize they cannot say in truth that God dwells in Palestine, or among the people called Jews because the Jews reject Jesus. And to say that God dwells among them would fly in the face of New Testament teachings.

So most Ministers ignore the multitude of promises and prophecies made by God to Israel, That He would ALWAYS be the God of Israel and that He would dwell in and among them. They do see that God is in Christendom but they do not relate that to the truth; that these Anglo‑Saxons, Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic and Kindred Christians: ARE ISRAELITES.

In Ephesians, speaking of the whole congregation of believers collectively as the household of God. Paul says,

"In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an HOLY TEMPLE in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit." (Ephesians 2:21‑22)

So the Temple of God is in a partial sense each individual believer. In a collective sense, the whole household of Christian Israel. With this in mind we then ask: Where would the man of sin sit; Where he would masquerade as God and be worshiped, as God, in the Temple of God? It is obvious, that he would sit in the hearts and minds of a deluded and deceived Israel People, who think they are worshiping the Divine One, when in reality, they are worshiping an entity called in Second Thessalonians Two "that man of sin...the son of perdition."

The man of sin could be, and you think carefully about it and see if it makes sense to you. The man of sin could be a false Christ. Remember that Jesus warned in Matthew Twenty Four when the disciples asked about the signs of the end of the world (age). Jesus said that many would come in His name, or in the name of Jesus Christ and would deceive many. He also gave as another sign in verse 24, "that there shall arise false Christs."

This character in Second Thessalonians Two is called the man of sin. The word sin means the transgression of the law, according to 1 John 3:4. So the man of sin is therefore, a man of transgression of the law. If a person, professing to worship Christ claims that "his" christ has put away God's Law and that there is no need for him to obey the Law, then he is believing in and worshiping a christ of sin.

A christ of transgression of the Law, or a "man of sin." Consider it another way. If a person believes that "his" christ is going to come and snatch him off the earth and take him to heaven, and then turn the earth over to the wicked; And if that is false doctrine, a lie, and it can be easily proven so, then that person believes in and worships a Jesus who is NOT the real Jesus of the Bible.

He is worshiping a false christ, one who has attributes which the true Jesus does not have. And one who is to do things which the real Jesus of the Bible will not do. He is, in deed, and, in fact, worshiping a "man of sin." And that man of sin, that false god is in that person, in the Temple of God and is being worshiped as God.

To fulfill Second Thessalonians Two there is no need to for any one person or any false god to go into a Stone Temple over in Old Palestine. Second Thessalonians Two can be fulfill by the simple fact that thousands or millions of God's people worship as God, someone who is not the real Jesus. Paul gave in 1 Corinthians 10:12 a warning to Christian Israelites, "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall."

We implore you, today, to examine your Christ. Is He the one of the Bible, or is He a false christ? Put into your mind by false prophets teaching false doctrines.

Are you worshiping the true Jesus of the Bible or are you worshiping the man of sin? Thus, as many of you know, Babylon is a false religion. And if any part of our people are captive of, or under a false religion, a false Christ, then they are captive of Babylon are they not?

But repeating again, our major interest in spending this time on Second Thessalonians Two, was to prove to you that whatever, or whoever the man of sin is he must be revealed. He must be exposed, he must be made known to God's people before Christ's return.

Now let us return to exposing what it is which has captivated our people; religiously, economically, politically, socially and in all phases of our national life. It is called in the Bible "Babylon." And it is described so that we can see it and understand it. In Micah God said Zion or end time Israel, in her new land, would be held captive under Babylon.

Then in Revelation 15 and 16, we saw that Babylon was to be divided into three parts. And we believe, that great city, which reigneth over the kings (governments) of the earth is something which rules the rulers of the earth; obviously from behind the scenes, but is the ruler nevertheless.

It is obvious, that for this prophetic Babylon to capture prophetic Zion; Prophetic Zion MUST of necessity be on the earth, not in some faraway Heaven. For we absolutely refuse to credit some earthly power with being strong enough to threaten the Heavenly abode of Almighty God Himself.

Therefore, THE ZION OF PROPHECY IS A PLACE HERE ON THE EARTH. And we have previously identified that prophetic Zion as Christian America. When the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates, in Revelation 16:12, it was followed by the three unclean spirits (three parts of Babylon) in verse 13. Which went forth in verse 14;

"unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty."

In verse 16 the place of their gathering was a place "called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon." Then as John saw the gathering of the kings of the earth, but before the battle, in verse 17, he saw as "the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air." and followed in verse 18 by "voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great."

Then finally "great Babylon" is mentioned. For the first time in this long passage and only the second time in the Book of Revelation. Its previous mention was in Chapter 14:8.

Here in Revelation 16:19 it says:

"And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath."

This implies destruction in part and perhaps in its entirety, but in any case God's wrath is shown here to be directed against "great Babylon." It would appear obvious that this "Babylon" is currently in existence on the earth now and we believe the earthquake which divided Babylon into three parts has already taken place. That it is past history and that it was not a physical quake of the planet earth as some teach.

In Revelation 17:18 the angel told John Babylon the great is "that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth." And to put it another way, great Babylon is the RULER OF THE RULERS. And just before it is destroyed it will be divided into three parts. Which we have already described as being (1) Russia and its control in Asia, Eastern Europe and parts of Africa. (2) China and its sphere of control in Asia, including India, Southeast Asia and parts of Africa. (3) The Western Hemisphere and Western Europe with the rulers of the United States being the dominating force in those areas.

However, the co‑operation of these super powers is still mostly hidden from the view of the people of the world. But millions of Americans are beginning to suspect that the great words of criticisms and anger, which pass publicly between three governments, and which is so prominently displayed in the news media are really all part of a staged show for the people's consumption.

Many now suspect that the rulers of America only pretend enmity towards the rulers of Russia and China. And that the rulers of Russia only pretend enmity towards the rulers of China and the United States. For they are beginning to realize that there is no major activity by any of the three governments which are in anyway damaging to the rulers of the other two governments.

Although thousands, yes even millions of people die in so‑called wars between these super‑powers, such as Korea, Southeast Asia and now in several wars in Africa and South America. The ruling powers of these three major governments remain intact and grows ever stronger, but never weaker.

Think about it, although some seem to be at cross purposes with others and even carry on so‑called wars with each other in which their own people are killed the men who make up those ruling governments remain untouched. During Korea have you never wondered why, if America wanted to defeat the enemy, would it allow one of its greatest Generals to be sent home just because he was in the process of defeating the enemy?

General Douglas MacArthur was not under the control of the American President while he served in Korea. He was under the control of the United Nations. And it was they who fired him and not President Harry S. Truman. He was fired because he broke the back of the North Korean Army when he launched the Inchon Harbor invasion. And he could have destroyed the invading Chinese Army with just one atomic bomb.

Oh one could say well we could not use the bomb because our men were too close to the blast area. Well tests were even then taking place in New Mexico with American troops much closer to the blast area than they would have been in Korea. The bomb would have saved thousands of American and other nationals soldiers, putting the Communist expansion plans back a hundred years and maybe more. Perhaps even destroying it one and for all.

Who was so powerful that they could control our military to such an extent that they could actually cost America thousands of its best men in a no‑win military action?

Who kept our navy and air force from destroying the enemies war making potential and food supplies? That the United Nations rules over the United States would be obvious to the American people if they would only think about what has been told them by men in government. Even the various Presidents such as Truman and etc.

President Truman in 1951 after he announced the war in Korea and moved our American troops there, announced to the people of the United States that the United States was fighting a war (police action) under the orders of the United Nations.

When General MacArthur, other military leaders and several Congressmen called upon the President to carry the war into North Korea and defeat them and end the war. President Truman informed them and the people of America he could not do such a thing because he had to obey the mandates of the United Nations. That this was a "United Nations Police Action."

In other words the President of the United States was admitting that he had a ruler above him. A ruler that he was required to obey. And he admitted it, although most Americans did not understand nor realize just what he was admitting to.

Twelve years later when President Johnson ordered several hundred thousand American teenagers to be shipped to South Vietnam, to begin a war there, he stated publicly that we, American troops, were going to South Vietnam to carry out the terms of the SETO Treaty. The full name of which was the Southeast Treaty Organization, a branch of the United Nations.

The American military was ordered to fight, to kill and be killed, but never to win under orders from the United Nations. Two hundred and fifty thousand American men were killed or maimed for life in Southeast Asia during that insane United Nations Controlled war.

Who gave the orders that prevented them from winning, and in many cases, from even defending themselves unless they were fired upon by the enemy. Well most Americans believe that it was President Johnson and later President Nixon, but what was the original source of the orders: The United Nations, something that rules, quietly from behind the scenes, almost all of the nations of the world, in including our own.

Recently Americans were surprised to see their own government, or at least what they believed to be their own government, transfer American Territory, the Panama Canal Zone, to a Communist dominated foreign government; Panama.

What they did not realize that the U.S. had not controlled the Panama Canal for many years. For if America had really controlled it during the Korean and the Vietnam Wars, would it have made sense that the American Government would have allowed cargo and war ships of their enemies to pass through it.

Yet, that is exactly what happened. Russian, English, French and others ships regularly passed through it carrying war supplies to the North Vietnamese Army to kill our American Men, during the Vietnam War. Not only that, the United States Government was ordered by the United Nations not to blockade the only sea port in North Vietnam, that being Haiphong. And the U.S. rulers obeyed those orders!

Scores of American Battleships and several Aircraft carriers sat out in the China Sea off Vietnam for eight long years during the war, prohibited by United Nations orders from firing a shot or interfering with Any ship bringing food and war materials to North Vietnam.

Oh, they made a pretense of mining the harbor, but were soon forced to remove the mines by other orders from the United Nations. Several multi‑national gas and oil companies sold gas, diesel and other fuel along with munitions to both North Vietnam and the United States and delivered their products in time of war without interference from either side!

During the Vietnam war literally thousands of American ships docked in Saigon and at Da Nang, and at any one time from a dozen to a score of them would be in the harbors.

Although the Viet Cong guerrillas had 120 MM Russian rockets, which they launched with regularity into the residential areas of Saigon and Da Nang, from the Mekong Delta; not once did those rockets strike any of the ships docked in the harbors of Saigon or Da Nang.

Not once did any of those rockets strike the hundreds of warehouses that were used to house the war supplies. Not once did those rockets strike any of the United States or South Vietnam Government buildings in Saigon, nor did they strike any of the Oil storage depots.

Those Russian made (and American taxpayers financed) Vietnamese rockets killed only American soldiers and South Vietnamese civilians. But the supplies to carry on the war had safe passage and safe storage afforded by both sides.

Who was it that commanded the Viet Cong not to hit the ships in the Saigon or Da Nang harbors or docks, or any of the government buildings, nor any of the oil and gasoline storage depots? Was it the same ones who ordered the American forces to not strike the North Vietnamese harbor, docks, government buildings, nor any of the gasoline storage depots, nor any of the ships that were bringing war supplies to the enemy?

Who was it that commanded the American Air Force not to use the carpet and systematic bombing which proved so successful during World War II against the Germans?

Who was it that commanded the American Air Force not to bomb the dams in the northern part of North Vietnam which would have destroyed completely the food supply for the Vietnamese Army and the North Vietnamese people, thus making it impossible for them to carry on the war, which would have saved countless American lives?

Who was it that ordered the American Air Force to bomb the jungles and mountain sides which inflicted minimal casualties upon the enemy?

In ten years of warfare only one U.S. Government building was damaged, and that was during the Tiet Offensive, and by only 10 Viet Cong who were quickly rounded up and killed.

Thousands of United States Government officials walked the streets of Saigon for ten years almost at will and the Viet Cong guerrillas left them strictly alone. During that same time the Viet Cong killed tens of thousands of American Troops.

And this, almost unbelievable condition continued for almost ten years. Yet the mental condition of the American people, is such, even today, most of them do not realize that such a condition could exist only if the rulers of both sides had a prior agreement as to who or what could, and who or what could not be destroyed before the conflict was even begun.

Who was it that commanded to kill only U.S. soldiers and not U.S. Government officials? Was it the same power which prevented the American Air Force from bombing North Vietnam? Was it the same power which, even today, prevents America from protecting itself from the holocaust of a future war.

The news media which reflected the dead and wounded on our television screens every night, and pictures on the front page of our newspapers every day, of almost ten years of that war have very little time, if any, to depict or report upon the terrible butchery which the liberals of America caused to be inflicted upon the people of South Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.

They never, but never, showed pictures of people killed by the Communist butchers, but they wring their hands and cry out to high heaven whenever a Communist or some other enemy of America is killed, and depict it has a heinous crime against humanity, if an American happens to come out on top of a conflict with them.

It has been reported that almost 500,000 million Africans have been killed by the Communists and Cuban troops in Africa, and a picture of the deaths of these who have been murdered by them is almost never shown on an American Television, magazine or newspaper. But if an American or White South African happens to kill a Communist in defense of his life, family or property, it is in every newspaper, magazine and on every television set in America.

Russia, Cuba and China operate at will in Africa and what is the United Nations doing about it. Well a spokesman for the United Nations announced that they would impose an oil embargo upon South Africa, but not one single peep about any sanctions or embargoes upon Russia, Cuba or China.

The United Nations in its some 47 years of existence has yet to inflict a single incident or action that has resulted in a detrimental action against the rulers of the Communist Nations.

Oh, there have been literally millions of people killed in so‑called anti‑Communist conflicts, but there has been nothing that has happened that would interfere with the actions of the rulers of the Communist Nations at all. But, in fact, its every action has been against every country or government in the world that would not bow its knees before the great god of the Communists/Zionist/Jewish one‑ worlders; The United Nations.

The three parts of Mystery Babylon are operating in concert, and the cities of nations are falling, just as the verse said. And the islands and the mountains (nations) are disappearing.

Is it possible; that there is more to the United Nations than we have been led to believe? But instead is a visible part of an otherwise invisible world‑government, which already controls almost every country and ruler on the earth.

Is it possible; that if we could we see the rest of the this control force and mechanism, we could then read the rest of Revelation 17 and 18 and say:

"Eureka, I have found it, I have found Mystery Babylon the mother of harlots and the abominations of the earth."

Is it possible; that pro United Nations propaganda and church doctrine, such as the Rapture theory and the future anti‑Christ, are really falsehoods of Babylon designed to cover‑up the truth of an existence of anti‑Christ world government already exists.

And to keep her hidden from those she has captured already and those she is about to capture. In the second chapter of Zechariah the prophet tells of seeing an Angel with a measuring line, who said that he was measuring Jerusalem. In Revelation 21, where John saw a vision of what he called the New Jerusalem, said in verse 15,

"And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city."

Other similarities in the two visions that one can see that both men were writing of the same Jerusalem <NEW JERUSALEM>

Almighty God has promised safety to New Jerusalem, as long as they follow after him; but now since America has allowed the Jews to subvert that teaching with their antichrist rules and regulations we have experienced the actions of a 911:

�But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.� (Proverbs 1:33)

The Jews under the disguise of being innocent victums almost succeeded in destroying German, which is the Tribe of Judah:

�In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.� (Jeremiah 23:6)

Yahweh wanted only good to come to Israel, as He told the prophet Jeremiah:

�Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely: And they shall be my people, and I will be their God: And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them: And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me. Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.� (Jeremiah 32:37-41)

However, our people stupidly allowed the Jews to obtain high places in the government and the Almighty can no longer protect us from their evil schemes. It is our fault and not His.

�And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.� (Ezekiel 28:26)

Can anyone deny that the Almighty has brought all this to pass in America?

�And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them. And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid.� (Ezekiel 34:25-28)

But now these things are beginning to go away because we stupidly believed the lying, perverted, deceiving Judeo-Christian clergy, and accepted their lies and placed the Jew in offices over us. Therefore, we are beginning to see the evil coming upon our land that Yahweh promised would happen in the Book of Deuteronomy, and Leviticus.

Yet for all of this Yahweh has promised us that He will destroy our enemy the Jews and all their lap-dogs, and boot-licks:

�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. 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. 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: 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.�

Yahweh has warned all the other nations:

Prophetic Jerusalem, and not the old historical city. That New Jerusalem was a land, a great nation, to be inhabited by the regathered tribes of Israel, is made plain in such verses Zechariah 2:4, where we read,

"Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein."

In the first chapter God says in verse 14,

"I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy."

Then in verse 17,

"My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad."

In chapter two verse 6, God said of this Jerusalem;

"I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven."

This was fulfilled in the driving out of the Israel people from Old Canaan Land several hundred years before Christ and their dispersion into the then vacant continent of Europe where they were to become the great nations of Christendom.

When they were scattered over Europe they lost their name of Israel and later became known generally to historians as Isaac's Sons or Saxons. With divisions such as Angles, Celts, Germans, Scandinavians and other kindred people.

As you read the foregoing and the following expos� you will come to understand that we believe that the Israel people have been regathered right here in the United States and that America is the city and the nation called by the name of New Jerusalem and by the name of Zion in prophecy.

Of course many of our Israel people still live in England, the Western Nations of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Canada. That they have been here off and on for thousands of years in response to God's Word in 2 Samuel 7:10, and 1 Chronicles 17:9.

But we are now primarily concerned with the prophecy that this New Jerusalem, this Zion of Bible Prophecy, would be captured and conquered by an alien force or power, called in the Bible ‑ Babylon.

In the very next verse in Zechariah two God speaks to this New Jerusalem,

"Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest WITH the daughter of Babylon."

And in Micah four, verse 10 God said to Zion,

"thou shalt go even to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the Lord shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies."

�See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever. If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I WILL RENDER VENGEANCE TO MINE ENEMIES, AND WILL REWARD THEM THAT HATE ME. I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, FROM THE BEGINNING OF REVENGES UPON THE ENEMY. Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.� (Deuteronomy 32:39-43)

�So LET ALL THINE ENEMIES PERISH, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might...� (Judges 5:31)

�Yea, the light of THE WICKED SHALL BE PUT OUT, and THE SPARK OF HIS FIRE SHALL NOT SHINE. THE LIGHT SHALL BE DARK IN HIS TABERNACLE, and HIS CANDLE SHALL BE PUT OUT WITH HIM. The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down. For HE IS CAST INTO A NET BY HIS OWN FEET, and HE WALKETH UPON A SNARE. THE GIN SHALL TAKE HIM BY THE HEEL, and the robber shall prevail against him. THE SNARE IS LAID FOR HIM IN THE GROUND, and A TRAP FOR HIM IN THE WAY. Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet. His strength shall be hungerbitten, and destruction shall be ready at his side. It shall devour the strength of his skin: even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength. His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the king of terrors. It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because it is none of his: BRIMSTONE SHALL BE SCATTERED UPON HIS HABITATION. HIS ROOTS SHALL BE DRIED UP beneath, and above shall HIS BRANCH BE CUT OFF. HIS REMEMBRANCE SHALL PERISH FROM THE EARTH, and HE SHALL HAVE NO NAME IN THE STREET. HE SHALL BE DRIVEN FROM LIGHT INTO DARKNESS, AND CHASED OUT OF THE WORLD. HE SHALL NEITHER HAVE SON NOR NEPHEW AMONG HIS PEOPLE, NOR ANY REMAINING IN HIS DWELLINGS. They that come after him shall be astonied at his day, as they that went before were affrighted. SURELY SUCH ARE THE DWELLINGS OF THE WICKED, and THIS IS THE PLACE OF HIM THAT KNOWETH NOT GOD.� (Job 18:5‑21)

�Thou hast rebuked the heathen, THOU HAST DESTROYED THE WICKED, THOU HAST PUT OUT THEIR NAME FOR EVER AND EVER. O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.� (Psalm 9:5-6)

�But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth? Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee. When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers. Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit. Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son. These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.� (Pslam 50:16-21)

�Let God arise, LET HIS ENEMIES BE SCATTERED: LET THEM ALSO THAT HATE HIM FLEE BEFORE HIM. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so LET THE WICKED PERISH AT THE PRESENCE OF GOD.� (Psalm 68:1-2) (KJV)

�Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: REMEMBER HOW THE FOOLISH MAN REPROACHETH THEE DAILY. FORGET NOT THE VOICE OF THINE ENEMIES: THE TUMULT OF THOSE THAT RISE UP AGAINST THEE INCREASETH CONTINUALLY.� (Psalm 74:22-23) (KJV)

�SURELY THOU WILT SLAY THE WICKED, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men. FOR THEY SPEAK AGAINST THEE WICKEDLY, AND THINE ENEMIES TAKE THY NAME IN VAIN. Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.� (Psalm 139:19-22)

�How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. Because I HAVE CALLED, and YE (jews, we know this because none of the things listed in these verses are for the Children of Jacob) REFUSED; I HAVE STRETCHED OUT MY HAND, and NO MAN REGARDED; BUT YE (jews) HAVE SET AT NOUGHT ALL MY COUNSEL (this is what Yahshua told them, when He said their traditions {Matthew 15:6}), AND WOULD NONE OF MY REPROOF: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. THEN SHALL THEY (the jews) CALL UPON ME, BUT I WILL NOT ANSWER; THEY (jews) SHALL SEEK ME EARLY, BUT THEY SHALL NOT FIND ME (here again is clear proof that Yahweh is speaking to the jews, because He told the Israelites that if they would seek His face and turn from their wicked ways, He would hear from heaven {2 Chronicles 7:14)): FOR THAT THEY HATED KNOWLEDGE, AND DID NOT CHOOSE THE FEAR OF THE LORD: THEY (the Jews, would not have any of Yahshua�s councel or words, because they would not hear them, as Yahshua said {John 8:47; 10:26}) WOULD NONE OF MY COUNSEL: THEY DESPISED ALL MY REPROOF. THEREFORE SHALL THEY EAT OF THE FRUIT OF THEIR OWN WAY, AND BE FILLED WITH THEIR OWN DEVICES. FOR THE TURNING AWAY OF THE SIMPLE SHALL SLAY THEM, AND THE PROSPERITY OF FOOLS SHALL DESTROY THEM.� (Proverbs 1:22‑32)

�Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I WILL EASE ME OF MINE ADVERSARIES, AND AVENGE ME OF MINE ENEMIES.� (Isaiah 1:24)

�Prepare for his sons a place of slaughter because of the iniquity of their fathers. They must not arise and take possession of the earth and fill the face of the world with cities. I will rise up against them, declares the LORD of hosts, and will cut off from Babylon name and survivors, offspring and posterity, declares the LORD. I will also make it a possession for the hedgehog and swamps of water, and I will sweep it with the broom of destruction," declares the LORD of hosts.� (Isaiah 14:21-23)

�And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree. For MY SWORD SHALL BE BATHED IN HEAVEN: BEHOLD, IT SHALL COME DOWN UPON IDUMEA, AND UPON THE PEOPLE OF MY CURSE, TO JUDGMENT. The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, and with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and A GREAT SLAUGHTER IN THE LAND OF IDUMEA. And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness. For it is the day of the LORD's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion. And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch. It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.� (Isaiah 34:4-10)

There is Edom [Esau is called Edom in Genesis 36:8. And Edom is in 'Modern Jewry' Jewish Encyclopedia, 1925 edition, Vol. 5, p. 41.

�And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.� (Malachi 1:3)

�For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that IT SHALL LEAVE THEM NEITHER ROOT NOR BRANCH.� (Malachi 4:1)

�As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.� (Romans 9:13)

Bozrah was a city in Idumea: �And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reigned in his stead.� (Genesis 36:33)

�Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and ALL THINE ENEMIES SHALL BE CUT OFF.� (Micah 5:9)

�But he (Christ) ANSWERED AND SAID UNTO THEM, AN EVIL AND ADULTEROUS GENERATION seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas.� (Matthew 12:39)

�Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was� sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, DIDST NOT THOU SOW GOOD SEED IN THY FIELD? FROM WHENCE THEN HATH IT TARES? HE SAID UNTO THEM, AN ENEMY HATH DONE THIS. The servants said unto him, wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and IN THE TIME OF HARVEST I WILL SAY TO THE REAPERS, GATHER YE TOGETHER FIRST THE TARES, AND BIND THEM IN BUNDLES TO BURN THEM: BUT GATHER THE WHEAT INTO MY BARN.� (Matthew 13:24-30)

�Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and GATHERED THE GOOD INTO VESSELS, BUT CAST THE BAD AWAY. So shall it be AT THE END OF THE WORLD: THE ANGELS SHALL COME FORTH, AND SEVER THE WICKED FROM AMONG THE JUST, AND SHALL CAST THEM INTO THE FURNACE OF FIRE: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.� (Matthew 13:47-50)

�Then Jesus answered and said, O FAITHLESS AND PERVERSE GENERATION, HOW LONG SHALL I BE WITH YOU? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.� (Matthew 17:17; Luke 9:41)

�The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, TILL I MAKE THINE ENEMIES THY FOOTSTOOL?� (Matthew 22:44; Mark 12:36)

�Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for YE COMPASS SEA AND LAND TO MAKE ONE PROSELYTE, and WHEN HE IS MADE, YE MAKE HIM TWOFOLD MORE THE CHILD OF HELL THAN YOURSELVES.� (Matthew 23:15)

�And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but UNTO THEM THAT ARE WITHOUT (The Jews), ALL THESE THINGS ARE DONE IN PARABLES: THAT SEEING THEY MAY SEE, AND NOT PERCEIVE; AND HEARING THEY MAY HEAR, AND NOT UNDERSTAND; LEST AT ANY TIME THEY SHOULD BE CONVERTED, AND THEIR SINS SHOULD BE FORGIVEN THEM.� (Mark 4:11‑12)

�Marvel not at this: for THE HOUR IS COMING, IN THE WHICH ALL THAT ARE IN THE GRAVES SHALL HEAR HIS VOICE, AND SHALL COME FORTH; THEY THAT HAVE DONE GOOD, UNTO THE RESURRECTION OF LIFE; AND THEY THAT HAVE DONE EVIL, UNTO THE RESURRECTION OF DAMNATION.� (John 5:28-29)

�IF A MAN ABIDE NOT IN ME, HE IS CAST forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them INTO THE FIRE, AND THEY ARE BURNED.� (John 15:6)

�WHEN PILATE therefore heard that saying, HE BROUGHT JESUS FORTH, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: AND HE SAITH UNTO THE JEWS, BEHOLD YOUR KING! BUT THEY (The Jews) CRIED OUT, AWAY WITH HIM, AWAY WITH HIM, CRUCIFY HIM. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? THE CHIEF PRIESTS ANSWERED, WE HAVE NO KING BUT CAESAR (Thus the Jews rejected the idea that Christ might rule over them, because they are not Israelites).� (John 19:13-15)

�But those mine enemies (the Jews), which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.� (Luke 19:27)

�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: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders.� (2 Thessalonians 2:8-9)

�Moses therefore saith to Jesus the son of Nun, giving him this name, when he sent him as a spy on the land; Take a book in thy hands, and write what the Lord saith, how the Son of God shall cut up by the roots all the house of Amalek in the last days.� (Barnabas 12:9)

These and many others make it plain prophetic Zion would be captured by prophetic Babylon. And that the enemies of God will be totally destroyed.

Now lets go on in the Book of Revelation and see if we can recognize Mystery Babylon the Great from the descriptions as shown in chapter 16, 17 and 18. We finished through verse 20 of Revelation 16 where Babylon was divided into three parts and the cities and the governments were falling. And every Island fled away and the mountains were not found; This is symbolic language for countries and nations.

They are disappearing as independent states and are being absorbed or swallowed up into one or the other of the three parts of Babylon; One part of Babylon represented by Russia, which rules Western Asia and Eastern Europe is at this moment waging war against several parts of Africa at this very moment; Whether the American people are aware of it or not.

Meanwhile Red China, a second part of Babylon is solidifying its control upon the sub‑continent of Asia. With Hong Kong soon to become part of China again as England has agreed to give up its control of it in the very near future. The third part of Babylon, the Western European Nations, including the United States is co‑operating completely with those conquests.

Verse 21 is a strange one,

"And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great."

This vision that John saw is often taught as if it will be real hail; frozen water which will fall from heaven. But remember, although John may have seen hail stones in the vision, like the other parts of his visions, each of these things was representative of something else.

The previous verses about the islands fleeing and the mountains not being found, certainly is not going to be fulfill by real islands getting up out of the water and running away on supernatural legs.

Nor by the disappearance of all the mountains on the earth. No, islands and mountains in prophecy stands for small and larger nations. And water in the Bible represents the Word of God, or the living water which would come from Christ. In Ephesians 5 Paul writes of Christs love for the Church in verses 25 and 26,

"Husbands love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word."

Gods' Word washes and cleanses people, but in Revelation 16:21 that water is frozen; it is in the form of hail; it cannot wash, it cannot cleanse, it can only cause hurt and cause immense pain.

And many of the doctrines and teachings of Organized Religion today is like frozen water. Although they quote God's Word and present it as God's Word, they are handled deceitfully and in error; it cannot be drunk, it cannot be absorbed and it is in a form which brings about blasphemy against God.

Now it says that these hail stones fell upon men from heaven, which would indicate that God was the source of them, and it is true that Almighty God will send false doctrines to men who will not accept His Truths. Second Thessalonians 2:10‑11 reads,

"because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie."

And it is obvious to any that will only open their eyes and see that many are being sent strong delusions; for many do believe lies and many do blaspheme God. So the hail of Revelation 16:21 would be, in effect, God's Word being rained upon wicked men in such a way that they will not believe it nor understand it; But instead blaspheme God.

To show that this is true, we have an example in Matthew 13 where Jesus told His disciples that He taught in parables so that some people would not understand Him. Now, there is one remedy for the frozen Word: Get away from Ministers who freeze or hide God's Word by mis‑teaching it. God's Ministers are to make the Word plain and teach it in truth. Paul said in Hebrews that God's Ministers are to be made, "a flame of fire," (Hebrews 1:7) and Fire will unfreeze God's Word.
