THE MARK OF THE BEAST
He - this second beast causes a MARK to be given
to - (Rev. 13 I 16).
1. Small or great people, rich or poor people, free or bond
(slaves, servants).
This MARK knows no class distinction - it is upon kings or
slaves.
2. This MARK is received either in the HAND - what you do
physically or in the FOREHEAD - what you believe mentally.
3. (v.17) This MARK effects being able to BUY or SELL - it
effects your job, or livelihood.
4. This MARK belongs to the FIRST BEAST but is forced upon people
by the SECOND BEAST.
The FIRST BEAST is the civil military ROMAN EMPIRE. The SECOND
BLAST is the ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH with its head spokesman and
finally its greatest miracle working false prophet of all time.
What in history has the CATHOLIC CHURCH acquired from PAGAN ROME
to give and force people to accept - people of all walks of life
- that effect what they do physically (the hand) or what
they believe mentally (the forehead) - something that could very
well effect buying or selling. This MARK would be so worldwide
and so obvious to tell those who had it, and those who refused to
have it.
There is only ONE answer - SUNDAY observance - the first day of
the week as opposed to the seventh day. The keeping of Sunday as
the Sabbath of God has NO Biblical foundation whatever. The first
day of the week was observed by pagan Rome in B.C. times. The
Catholic Church adopted it from Rome and enforced it on the world
at the Council of Nicea in 321 A.D. See your history books.
Prophesying about the emergence of the CATHOLIC church, Daniel
was inspired to write,"And he shall speak words against the Most
High and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and THINK to
CHANGE the TIMES (of sacred feasts and holy days)and the LAW..."
(Dan.11:25, Amplified Bible).
The law of the SABBATH(4th point of the 10 commandments)was
CHANGED by the sanction of the Catholic church from SATURDAY to
SUNDAY.
The sacred feasts of God(as given in Lev.23) were CHANGED to
different dates and days or supplanted with other festivals of
PAGAN origin i.e. Easter in place of PASSOVER - ChristMass in
place of the FEAST OF TABERNACLES.
In a larger sense ALL of these false PAGAN days and festivals
constitute the MARK of the Roman empire, which the IMAGE of the
BEAST has caused ALL but the very elect of God to receive either
in their MIND (forehead) - what they mentally receive and honor
as truth AND/OR in their HAND - what they physically DO.
Those Who REFUSE to follow the 7th day Sabbath and festivals of
God have RECEIVED the MARK of the BEAST. He is a part of the
Pagan Roman empire - and unless REPENTANCE is forthcoming, will
suffer the WRATH of God (Rev.14:9,10).
THE NUMBER 666
(v. 17), The beast - this is the first beast - CIVIL MILITARY
ROMAN EMPIRE - has not only a MARK that brands people as
belonging to it, but also a NUMBER that identifies who this beast
is.
(v. 18), This number is also the number of a MAN - one SPECIFIC
individual.
The number of this MAN must also be the NAME of the BEAST. NOTE:
This number is NOT the number of a TITLE or OFFICE or RELIGIOUS
ORDER. It is the NUMBER of a MAN - a man that identifies the
beast - a man that gives his name to the beast, as it is also the
number of the beast's name.
If the beast (first beast of Rev.13) is the resurrected ROMAN
EMPIRE - can we find in history a man who gave his NAME to the
empire. Oh, indeed we can!
The founder of ROME and the ROMAN EMPIRE was a man - ROMULUS -
this is what the history books say on him:
Quote:
ROMULUS AND REMUS in Roman mythology, were twin brothers who
founded the city of Rome. The Romans considered Romulus their
first king.
According to tradition, Romulus and Remus were born in the
ancient Italian city of Alba Longa. King Numitor ruled Alba Longa
until Arnulius, his younger brother, deposed him. Amulius killed
Numitor's sons and forced Rhea Silvia, Numitor's daughter, to
become a Vestal Virgin. Vestal Virgins were priestesses who by
law had to remain virgins. Amulius hoped that Rhea Silvia's being
a Vestal Virgin would prevent her from bearing children who might
threaten his rule. But the god Mars seduced Rhea Silvia, and she
gave birth to Romulus and Remus. Amulius had Rhea Silvia executed
and ordered the babies placed in a basket and thrown into the
Tiber River.
After floating downstream, the twins were washed ashore. A female
wolf found the infants and nursed them. Romulus, Remus, and the
wolf became popular subjects for Roman artists. Several ancient
statues show the babies with their animal protector.
A shepherd named Faustulus discovered Romulus and Remus.
Faustulus and his wife raised the boys as their own children.
After the twins became young men, they learned their true
identity. They overthrew Amulius, killed him, and restored
Numitor to the throne.
Soon, Romulus and Remus set out to found their own city. However
the brothers quarrelled over the site where the city should be
built, so to settle the argument, they agreed that the one who
saw the largest number of vultures in flight should choose the
site. Romulus claimed he saw 12 vultures, which he declared was a
sign from the gods that his location was the proper one. Remus,
who saw only six vultures, thought his brother had cheated. After
Romulus began to build a wall around his chosen site, Remus
leaped over the ditch that was to hold the foundation of the
wall. As he did so, he mocked Romulus. For this act of
disloyalty, Remus was killed, either by Romulus himself or by one
of Romulus' followers. Romulus then became the sole ruler of the
city, which he named Rome, for himself.
Rome prospered, but only men lived there. To provide wives for
his subjects, Romulus had women kidnapped from the neighboring
Sabine tribe (see Sabine). Romulus was a wise and popular ruler
and a fine miliary leader. He expanded Rome until it became the
most powerful city in its region.
After reigning for 38 years, Romulus disappeared mysteriously
during a storm. According to a later Roman myth, he became the
god Quirinus.

End Quote
The city of Rome was named after ROMULUS - the empire was named
after the capital city ROME - if you were part of that empire you
were a man of Rome - a ROMAN - a ROMULUS MAN.
We are told to COUNT - add up - the man - it will come to 666.
The New Testament was written in Greek - the Greek for
L is worth 30
A " " 1
T " " 300
E " " 5
I " " 10
N " " 50
0 " " 70
S " " 200
A total of 666!!
LATEINOS in Greek means "Latin Man" - a man of Italy - a man of
Rome - a Roman - a Romulus man.
ROMULUS in HEBREW (which the Old Testament was written in) is
Romiith - this also totals 666.
There is no question - what John sees as the FIRST BEAST of
Revelation 13 is the RESURRECTED CIVIL ROMAN EMPIRE after 554
A.D. - it is Daniel's fourth beast of Dan.7 after the first three
horns have gone.
The ten horns of John's beast of chapter 13 are the ten toes of
Daniel's image of Dan.2 and the ten kings of Rev.17 that will
fight Christ on His return.
The SECOND BEAST of John in Rev.13 is the LITTLE HORN of Daniel 7
- the PAPACY - the Roman Catholic Church - the IMAGE, the
spiritual image of the civil Roman empire - the Church that
caused people to be killed, that made war with the saints of God
if they did not worship it - the Church that has a man as its
eyes and mouth - a man that blasphemes the name of God, calling
himself "father". The Church - the beast that will finally bring
forth the greatest false prophet of all - the man of sin - the
antiChrist - the miracle worker - that Christ shall consume with
the spirit of His mouth upon returning to this earth.
The Catholic Church is the little horn that "thought" to CHANGE
THE LAW of God (Dan.7). It is the beast that caused the world to
receive a MARK - a mark derived from pagan Rome - SUNDAY
OBSERVANCE - it changed the FOURTH POINT of God's law, from the
SEVENTH DAY of the week to the FIRST DAY of the week. It CHANGED
the SACRED FEASTS and HOLY DAYS of God (as given in Lev.23) and
borrowed from PAGAN ROME the feasts of Easter, Christmas, Lent,
New Years, All Saints Day, Valentines Day, etc.
Rev.17 WOMAN SITTING UPON A BEAST
v. 1
Great whore - a woman prostitute sitting on MANY WATERS - people,
multitudes, nations, v. 15. She rules, guides MANY nations and
tongues.
v. 2
Kings have been part of her lewdness and the earth has been made
drunk - can't see straight, can't direct its path straight.
v. 3
A WOMAN - chapter 12.1-5, tells us a woman in prophecy represents
a CHURCH - the Church of God brought forth Jesus who is to rule
all nations when He returns, but is now on God's right hand in
heaven. See v.5-17 of chap. 12. This Church - woman, is a fallen
woman, a prostitute. She sits on a beast that - is red and:
1. blasphemes
2. has seven heads
3. and ten horns
Compare this to Rev.12:3 (Satan - red and seven heads and ten
horns) and Rev.13:1-5 - the beast of John has:
1. seven heads
2. ten horns
3. the dragon (Satan chap.12:3,9) controls
4: it blasphemes
The first beast of Rev.13 is the civil military power of the
resurrected Roman empire.
The beast that John sees here - the beast the woman or Church
rides and controls is the SAME BEAST - the Roman empire.
v. 4-6
Is a description of this woman - this Church.
1. Very rich and wealthy - serving abominations.
2. She is full of mystery derived from ancient Babylon - she
is the foremost proponent of great Babylon mysteries.
3. She is a mother - other Churches came out of her.
4. This Church is responsible for the killing of true
followers of God.
The second beast of Rev.13 also is responsible for killing anyone
who would not worship it.
This WOMAN and the SECOND BEAST of Rev.13 are the one and same -
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
1. There is no Church wealthier than the Roman Church.
2. Many of her doctrines and practices can not only be traced
back to Rome but can be found to ORIGINATE in Babylon - the first
world ruling empire (See The Two Babylons by Alexander Hislop).
3. Which Church has been responsible for the martyrdom of
thousands of individuals who refused to worship its way?
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH (see your history books).
The woman rode the entire beast with ALL of its seven heads and
ten horns.
What are these seven heads and ten horns? We shall see.
SEVEN HEADS AND TEN HORNS
v. 9
Seven heads are seven mountains.
A mountain represents KINGDOM (comp. Mic.4:1; Dan.2:34-35). See
also v.10. Kings with Dan.2:37-39. The woman sits on all seven of
these kingdoms. Are these kingdoms simultaneous or consecutive?
v.10
The answer is given - FIVE have gone - ONE is, (the time that
John sees this vision is when the sixth kingdom is in existence)
and ONE more is yet to come.
These kingdoms are consecutive.
Can we find in history at least five, possibly six kingdoms or
empires that arose OUT OF the old Roman empire - in the same
geographical area - and controlled or sanctioned by a woman - a
Church? Yes, indeed:
A history book titled "Western Civilization" by Edward McNall
Burns, gives us six and SIX ONLY (so far in our history) civil
church empires.
I will quote from the aforementioned book.

TO BE CONTINUED
The Beasts of Daniel and Revelation #3The final understandingsFROM THE BOOK "WESTERN CIVILIZATION"
QUOTE:
THE RULE OF CHARLEMAGNE
.....As a matter of fact, it was Charlemagne's constant
intervention in religious affairs which led to the climax of his
whole career - his coronation as Roman Emperor by Pope Leo 3. Leo
had been in trouble for some time. Accused of being a tyrant and
a rake, he so aroused the indignation of the people of Rome that
in 799 they gave him a severe beating and forced him to flee from
the city, Struggling over the mountains to Germany, he implored
the aid of Charlemagne. The great king sent him back to Italy and
was instrumental in restoring him to the papal throne. On
christmas day, 800, as Charles knelt in prayer in St.Peter's
church the grateful Pope placed a crown on his head while the
assembled multitude hailed him as, "Augustus, crowned of God,
Great and pacific Emperor of the Romans"....The Carolingian
empire thus established was not conceived as the beginning of a
new state, but as a REVIVAL of the empire of the Caesars. the
grandeur of Rome was now held to be REBORN.....
THE EMPIRE OF OTTO THE GREAT
.....When the eastern branch of the Carolingian dynasty died out
in 911, the Germans returned to their ancient practice of
electing a king. Their first choice was Conrad of Franconia. He,
in turn, was succeeded by Henry 1, the founder of the Saxon
dynasty. The more famous member of this dynasty was henry's son,
Otto the Great who became king in 936. From the beginning of his
reign Otto apparently entertained ambitions of becoming something
more than a mere king in Germany. He had himself crowned at
Aachen, probably to convey the idea that he was rightful
successor of Charlemagne. Soon afterwards he intervened in
Italian affairs and assumed the title of King of the Lombards.
From this it was only a step to becoming involved with the
Papacy. In 961 Otto responded to an appeal from Pope John 7 for
protection against his enemies, and in January of the following
year he was rewarded by being crowned Roman Emperor. Although the
empire of Otto the Great was confined to Germany and Italy, there
was doubtless the belief in the mind of its founder that it would
eventually be enlarged, perhaps to embrace all of Latin
Christendom....
THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE OF
FREDERICK BARBAROSSA AND
FREDERICK 2
IN the twelfth century the crown of Otto the Great came into
possession of the Hohenstaufen family, whose most distinguished
representatives were Frederick Barbarossa and Frederick 2. Both
of these rulers were outspoken in asserting their claims to
imperial dignity. Frederick Barbarossa called the empire of
Germany and Italy the Holy Roman Empire on the theory that it was
a universal empire established directly by God and co-ordinate in
rank with the church.Frederick 2, who was king of Sicily and
southern Italy as well as Holy Roman Empire, was much more
interested in his southern kingdom than he was in Germany.
Nevertheless, he believed just as firmly as did his grandfather
Barbarossa in a universal empire as the highest secular power in
western Europe.....
THE CROWN OF THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE
PASSES TO THE HAPSBURGS
Frederick 2 was no more successful than any of his predecessors
in increasing the power of the Holy Roman Empire. His great
mistake was his failure to enlist the support of the middle class
in the cities as the Capetian monarchs in France had done.
Without this it was impossible to break through the wall of papal
opposition. After Frederick died in 1250 the Popes proceeded to
annihilate the remaining members of the Hohenstaufen line. In
1273 Rudolf of Hapsburg was elected to the imperial throne, but
the Holy Roman Empire over which he and his descendants ruled was
seldom very powerful. When finally abolished in 1806 by Napoleon,
it was little more than a political fiction.....
NAPOLEON CROWNED. THE ESTABLISHMENT
OF THE EMPIRE
Though Napoleon was now an absolute monarch in nearly everything
but name, he still was not satisfied. In 1802 he obtained the
consent of the people to extend his term of office as First
Consul from ten years to life. All that then remained was to make
his position hereditary. In 1804 by another plebiscite he won
permission to convert the Consulate into an empire. Soon
afterwards in the midst of impressive ceremonies in the cathedral
of Notre Dame, he placed a crown upon his own head and assumed
the title of Napoleon 1.....He brought Pope Pius & all the way
from Rome to officiate at his coronation, though he was careful
to produce the impression that His Holiness was acting as the
mere agent of God and not as an international sovereign who could
create and depose the emperor.....Napoleon's work as a statesman
included many other changes in the political system of France.
For one thing, he restored the union between the Catholic church
and the state. In 1801 he signed a Concordat with the Pope, which
provided that bishops should be nominated by the First Consul and
that the salaries of the clergy should be paid by the government.
Even if the Catholic church did not regain the legal monopoly it
had enjoyed under the Old Regime, since other religions were also
to be tolerated, it was nevertheless placed in a position of
decided advantage and was thereby able to increase its power in
succeeding years. Not until 1905, when the Concordat of 1801 was
finally broken, was Catholicism again reduced to equality with
other faiths....
THE FASCIST REVOLUTION IN ITALY
MUSSOLINI'S CONTRADICTORY
IDEAS
Probably it is safe to say that Mussolini was never a radical by
sincere and reasoned conviction but was simply following the
inclinations of a rebellious nature. No man with a define
philosophy could have reversed himself so often.....
(1) TOTALITARIANISM.
The state incorporates every interest and every loyalty
of its members. There must be "nothing above the state, nothing
outside the state, nothing against the sate."....
(2) NATIONALISM
The nation is the highest form of society ever evolved
by the human race....Internationalism is therefore a gross
perversion of human progress. The nation must be made strong and
great, through self-sufficiency, a powerful army, and a rapidly
increasing birth rate.
(3) IDEALISM
The philosophy of Fascism was an idealist philosophy in
the sense that it renounced the materialistic interpretation of
history. The nation, according to Mussolini could become anything
it willed to become.....
(4) ROMANISM
Reason can never be an adequate instrument for the
solution of great national problems. Intellect needs to be
supplemented by mystic faith, by self-sacrifice, and by worship
of heroism and strength....
(5) AUTHORITARIANISM
The sovereignty of the state is absolute. The citizen
has no rights but simply duties. What the nation needs, is not
liberty, but work, order, prosperity.....
(6) MILITARISM
Strife is the origin of all things. Nations which do
not expand eventually wither and die. War exalts and ennobles man
and regenerates sluggish and decadent peoples.
No unprejudiced person would deny that the Fascist regime in
Italy had a few achievements to its credit, 1940, when Italy
entered World War 2, the government had reduced illiteracy,
effected what appeared to be a satisfactory settlement of the old
quarrel with the papacy, obliterated the Mafia, or Black Hand
organizations, in Sicily.....
THE NAZI TRIUMPH IN GERMANY
Germany succumbed to fascism much later than Italy, mainly for
the reason that forces of nationalism and militarism were
temporarily discredited as a result of defeat in World War 1....
By a treaty with Pius 11 in 1929 the Fascist government abrogated
the 1871 Law of Papal Guaranties and recognized the complete
independence of the Vatican City. The agreement also provided
that Roman Catholicism should be the official religion of the
state, that religious instruction should be given in the schools,
and that the laws of the church should be ENFORCED by the
government.....
1935. In the fall of that year Benito Mussolini sent an army to
invade ETHIOPIA. The Ethiopian king appealed to the Council of
the League of Nations, which was fortunately in session. With
promptness unusual under the circumstances, the Council branded
Italy as an aggressor and decided to apply economic sanctions
against her....further efforts to curb Italy were quietly
abandoned. In May, 1936, Mussolini completed his conquest of the
Lion of Judah and proclaimed the establishment of the Italian
Empire. With Mussolini so successful in flouting the regime of
international law and order, it could be expected that Hitler
would take a turn at winning victories by bold defiance. He began
by tearing up the disarmament provisions of the Treaty of
Versailles. In 1935 he publicly announced the revival of
conscription and the return to universal military training. By
threatening the creation of a huge air force he hoodwinked the
British into signing a naval agreement permitting Germany to
build was vessels up to 35 per cent of the strength of Britain's
navy. by the end of 1936 he had a conscript army of over 800,000
men and 108 naval vessels already built or under construction....
END QUOTES
You will have noticed that in May, 1936, Mussolini completed his
conquest of the Lion Of Judah and proclaimed the establishment of
the ITALIAN EMPIRE. You will have noticed part of his beliefs
were that he had ROMANTICISM as a must for his empire, Intellect
needs to be supplemented by "mystic faith< by self-sacrifice, and
by worship of heroism." IN patching things up with the Papacy
there was a treaty signed with Pope Pius 11, recognizing the
complete independence of the Vatican city, and provided that
Roman Catholicism should be the OFFICIAL RELIGION OF THE STATE,
that religious instruction should be given in the schools, and
the LAWS OF THE CHURCH should be ENFORCED by the GOVERNMENT!
MUSSOLINI had resurrected the 6TH HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE.
FIVE THAT WERE
1. Charlemagne 814 A.D.
2. Otto the Great 962 A.D.
3. Frederick 1180 A.D.
4. Rudolf of Hapsburg 1273 A.D.
5. Napoleon 1804 A.D.
The ONE that is - Mussolini 1929 (John sees this AS IF he was
living at the time of this sixth kingdom).
The ONE that is yet to be.
This is interpreted FOR US in v.12-14. The ten horns are the
seventh mountain. Ten kingdoms will arise in the SAME
geographical area of Europe as the other resurrected Holy
(Church) Roman Empires were.
They will UNITE as one nation giving their power into the hands
of ONE specific great civil military leader - called the beast
(see chap.19:20; 16:13-14; Dan.7:11).
This beast leader will have the help of a great false prophet
(chap.19:20; 16:13-14). THEY and the armies of these ten united
nations will fight Christ at His return.
This SEVENTH HOLY Roman Empire is NOW being formed in Europe. It
is now known as the "EUROPEAN COMMON MARKET". It was only
economical - it is NOW political, the FIRST EVER European
government was elected in June 1979. It has many MORE than ten
nations within it at present and more wanting to join. But by the
time Jesus is to return, it will be ONLY 10 NATIONS that will
unite under the beast man and false prophet to fight Christ as He
comes to earth. It will become also a religious empire - ruled by
the Catholic Church and its Pope - the antiChrist, man of sin,
the false prophet. It will be the most powerful military
"religious" empire of all time. The RC church has at present (in
2003, as I put this up on my Website) over 1 BILLION MEMBER
worldwide and ever increasing, that is ONE in every SIX person on
earth are Roman Catholic by religious faith!
This last revived, resurrected HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE will cause the
LAST martyrdom of saints, that we read about in Revelation
chapter 12.
Rev.18 - BABYLON
There was a LITERAL empire called BABYLON. There was a LITERAL
city called BABYLON. Shall we understand the Babylon of Rev.18 to
refer to a LITERAL city and a LITERAL empire? Let's compare
scripture with scripture.
v. 2
BABYLON IS FALLEN IS FALLEN - is fallen ONCE (the original city)
is fallen (again to fall) TWICE. The fall of Babylon for the
second time CANNOT be the ORIGINAL city because it was never to
be inhabited or built again (Isa.13:20), as it once was.
HABITATION OF DEVILS ... FOUL SPIRIT... CAGE OF ... UNCLEAN ...
BIRD.
Compare this with Isa.13:21. The language is similar for that of
original Babylon. But here is added "habitation of demons and
foul spirits." Now notice Rev.20:1-3. Satan is bound at some
location for a 1,000 years. Yes, he and his foul spirits will be
bound at this second modern Babylon which is yet to be destroyed
and become as the first Babylon.
v. 3
Compare with Rev.17:2. The language is unmistakably similar - we
have seen that the woman in Rev.17 is the great false Church, the
Catholic Church. Notice Rev.14:8 Babylon is called a great city -
all nations have been made drunk (spiritually) by her. The same
type of description. Rev.17:5 calls this Church mystery Babylon -
its practices must have a mysterious connection with the original
Babylon.
v. 5,6
Compare with Rev.16:18,19. A literal earthquake, thunder and
lightnings, literal cities of nations fall - the GREAT city -
great Babylon - must also be literal.
v. 16
We go over to this verse for a moment - compare it with Rev.
17:4. This great city and the woman of Rev.17 are the same.
v. 8-19
The kings - the merchants - the shipmasters, sailors that trade
by sea - shall stand AFAR OFF and shall see the SMOKE of her
BURNING. Now, if this Babylon is the "whole earth" how are many
kings, and merchants going to STAND AFAR OFF and bewail her
destruction - for everyone on the earth would be IN the down
fall, in the destruction?
If this Babylon is a "spiritual sin" how are some going to stand
afar off and SEE the SMOKE of her BURNING?
v. 23
This Babylon is responsible for DECEIVING the whole earth. Here
then is a power that is number one in God's eyes as a deceiver of
nations.
If something is responsible for deceiving something else, then
the deceiver is a TANGIBLE as the one BEING DECEIVED.
v. 49.
Notice! This Babylon is responsible for the death of saints - now
compare this with Rev.13:15 - the second beast of John causes
death on people who would not worship its way. The "little horn"
of Daniel 7:21,25 and 8:9-12 also makes war with the saints and
kills them.
What in history has been the greatest caster of truth to the
ground (Dan.8:12), the killer of true worshippers of God (Dan.
7:21,25), the speaker and magnifier against God (Dan.7:25; 8:11),
the prosperous and rich (Dan.8:12), the power that has preached
about the bridegroom and the bride (Rev.18:23)?
Only the civil religious Holy Roman Empire: The coming Babylon of
Revelation will be the LAST resurrection of the HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE
now forming in Europe - it will be the second Babylon of history.
And just as the original empire had a capital city (Babylon) so
too will the modern empire - the seat of all its sorceries -
the LITERAL city of Rome.
As you watch the developments in Europe, you are seeing the VERY
PROPHECIES of the Eternal God COMING TO PASS, right before your
eyes. I cannot tell you HOW LONG it will take for this LAST HOLY
ROMAN EMPIRE TO FORM AND TO FULFIL THE PROPHECIES OF THE BOOK OF
REVELATION AND DANIEL - BUT I CAN TELL YOU THAT IT **WILL** COME
TO PASS AS GOD HAS WRITTEN, AND THEN JESUS WILL RETURN AND
ESTABLISH THE KINGDOM OF GOD ON EARTH FOR A GLORIOUS 1,000 YEARS
(please study by study called "Armageddon and the Age to Come").

Written 1979
NOTE JUST ABOUT ALL THE OLD PROTESTANT FUNDAMENTAL BIBLE COMMENTARIES LIKE ALBERT BARNES, MATTHEW HENRY, ADAM CLARKE, OPENLY TEACH THAT THE WOMAN WHORE, BABYLON MYSTERY RELIGION, SHE THAT IS DRUNK ON THE BLOOD OF THE SAINTS---- THE WOMAN OF REVELATION 17, WAS AND IS THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH. SHE WAS INDEED RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PERSECUTION AND SANCTION OF COUNTLESS SAINTS OF GOD; WITH TORTURE AND DEATH, DURING CENTURIES CALLED THE DARK AGES. ONE PERSON IN RECENT YEARS WROTE A BOOK CALLED "THE DARK SIDE OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH." ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL RECENTLY ALSO WROTE A BOOK CALLED "THE DARK SIDE OF THE POPES." YES IT IS ALL RECORDED IN HISTORY!!! WE ALSO HAVE THE HISTORICAL TRUTH THAT HUNDREDS OF ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIESTS HAVE SEXUALLY ABUSED CHILDREN. A RECENT MOVIE WAS MADE CALLED "SPOT LIGHT" ABOUT THE INVESTIGATIVE SIDE OF A BOSTON NEWSPAPER, THAT STARTED THE SHOCKING FACTS OF BOSTON PRIESTS, AND SUBSEQUENTLY HUNDREDS OF PRIESTS FROM MANY NATIONS OF THE WORLD, WHO SEXUALLY ABUSED CHILDREN. THE SHOCKING FACTS ARE ALL OUT THERE, DISCOVERED, AND WRTTEN ABOUT, IF PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH. THE LATE DAVE HUNT [NO RELATION TO ME] WROTE A BOOK CALLED "A WOMAN RIDES THE BEAST" ---- IF STILL IN PRINT YOU NEED TO OBTAIN AND READ IT. DAVE HUNT ALSO GOES INTO THE POLITICAL SIDE OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
