"Don't go to God for forgiveness of sins, come to me." -Pope John Paul II, LA Times, 12-12-1984

A picture worth 1000 words / children

JOHN PAUL II A SAINT?! 

Since the Pope became ill this ministry has been inundated with emails asking, "what's next?" I assume by the question some think I am able to see into the future. However I would like quench that assumption to make it plain this day, I am no prophet. I can only share what I see in the Word of God, His prophecy, as well as Historic Record. Anyone of us can do this if we simply trust the Lord that wrote the Word, and do the leg work necessary to find the historic record that verifies the prophecies 100% authentic. Of course this study of eschatology is not meant to bolster our faith, even though this is inevitable as this is the cause and effect of reading the Word of God. For it is written in Romans 10:17 that, "...faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." I guess you can call that a fringe benefit, or a perk for the man and woman of God. We are blessed by trying to help others see as we see. What an awesome God we worship! And yes, I also do the research so as to better educate those that are too busy or unable to do the research on their own. In this age of convenience, is nice to have a place you can go to find the facts already laid out in advance.

When the news came that the Pope was sick I knew that eventually I would have to comment on his death as well as what I felt was a possible next step for Rome. Many years ago as many of you are already aware I was a Catholic. In fact I was a devout Catholic. I went to mass daily each morning the last two or so years as a Catholic. I was in church for every holy day of obligation. I said the rosary each and every day. I taught Catholic Catechism Doctrine to the children, and I was even a Eucharistic minister for the church.

During my time as a Catholic I also studied Catholic prophecy as much as I could because ever since my youth I had a strong and deep desire to do so. It fascinated me that there was a God that was able to not only predict the future, He was willing to let us know about it. However, being Catholic, this meant when I studied prophecy, I did so in accordance with what the church taught. And that was most assuredly not from the Holy Scripture. In fact, coming from a devout Catholic family, the Bible was thought to be an undesirable book filled with mistakes and doctrines the church was at liberty to change and did in fact change over the years. So I never thought to peer into it's pages because it was thought to be a waste of my time anyway. It wasn't until many years later that I was "forced" into the Bible. I say forced because as a Catholic I certainly didn't want to do it. But everywhere I looked there were people with Bibles in hand telling me I was headed to Hell in a handbasket. So I decided to open a Bible to prove them wrong. Needless to say I found out rather quickly they were right. I found within the pages of the Bible prophecies that were not mixed with man's opinions and massive errors. I found prophecies that matched perfectly with historic record as well. And I found that the prophecies speaking about Antichrist ALL pointed to the Roman Catholic Vatican! Needless to say, it wasn't long after this that I left that church. Of course, I go into a bit more detail as to my decision to leave the church in my book, the Second Window.

So.. what does Rome hope to have happen next? Sad thing is, most of it will happen as they desire. Problem for them is, most of it will be extremely short lived. Jesus will put an end to their so called "Eternal City" far sooner then any of them had ever hoped.

In Catholic prophecy one of the most notable "prophets" of Rome would have to be a man called "Saint" Malachy. Malachy's family name was actually, O'Morgair, and he was born in Armagh, Ireland, in 1094. He was baptized as Maelmhaedhoc (this name Latinized = Malachy) He supposedly put together a list of future popes long before they were ever elected. His work was later published in 1559 by a Benedictine historian name Arnold Wion in his book, Lignum Vitre. In like manner to Nostradamus a proven false prophet of Roman Catholicism, Malachy "hinted" in very generalized terms as to what each pope would do. Now I don't doubt for a minute there was an "outside" influence in this man's prophetic utterances as is the case with most Catholic mystics. For example, Nostradamus used a black mirror or a bowl of water to get his visions. So, like most Catholic prelates or even laymen, they see no wrong in delving into tactics straight from Satanism and his religion formally called the occult for information about the future. Here's a short excerpt from the Catholic Encyclopedia regarding "St. Malachy" and his work...

As you can see, even those Rome has a strong argument against their authenticity they still hold to them as valid because they "assume" to have been laying untouched within the Vatican archives. And they place validity to their admitted argument of its falsehood by suggesting an adoption of Cucherat's theory that they were in fact hidden in the archives for 400 years. No proof is given of that statement of course, just the normal assuming language we see Rome infamous for. Need I mention the assumption of Mary they hold so strongly to without the slightest bit of Scriptural or even historical background.

The main problem here is, this is a church that is wholly based on lies and the crafty art of lying. Without getting into literally thousands of instances where this church has been caught lying in history, as well as modern day. Suffice it to say, did they not lie about child molestation for years in our day? And did not the Pope himself admit on March 12, 2000 in his "Mea Culpa" that the church lied for the last few hundred years regarding their role in killing 500 million Christians during the dark ages as well as the modern day slaughter of the Jews? So, yes.. this is a church of lies and since it is based on such, one cannot look to it as a source of truth. So, when looking into their so called "prophecies" be forewarned that this is coming from a church known for it's ability to make a lie seem truthful. The Catholic Encyclopedia comments further on "St. Malachy" in such a way that further illustrates their haphazard method of prophetic deciphering. One I am sure you will find to be 100% unbiblical to say the least...

Here they are using "assumptions" to make "St. Malachy's" prophetic utterances appear valid. Such generalization can only come from Satan. Fact is, the Word of God states plainly on how to decipher prophecy (see 2 Peter 1:20) as well as to how to test the spirits to see if they are of God. (see 1 John 4:1) This church never uses either method. This is why demonic utterances like this are embraced as truth. This is also why apparitions of "Mary" are accepted by this church. Had they investigated what this "Mary" is saying with what the Word of God says, they would see it's not Mary but actually a demon posing as her. (For proof of that fact, click here) I used this "excerpt" from the Catholic Encyclopedia mainly because of what they said about the so called prediction speaking of a "pilgrim pope." They also stated in the article that Malachy "OFTEN" mentioned "rare circumstance in the pope's career" as a method of defining said pope. Here they said his "pilgrim" name describes a RARE circumstance of walking into a strange country. Truth is, all throughout history there were MANY popes that have walked into countries for the first time in their pontificate, so this extremely vague prediction would work for any of them as well. In fact, this is no different then the generalized predictions you see each and every year in the tabloids around January 1 by dozens of so called psychics. The reason this one seems so much more accurate is because of the way his "comments" are worded in advance. They can be manipulated in a bevy of ways to make them appear authentic. Malachy purposely left the door wide open to allow just about any person on earth to be a so called prophesied fulfillment of his prophecy.

My opinion on the list of "predictions" is that I strongly believe they're no different then any Corporate Manual that outlines its future goals and aspirations down the road. Enron had one, most Governments have them, and even most life insurance salesmen have them. In fact, every resume on earth wouldn't be complete without one!  Does this make the writers of these books, resumes, or scratch paper notes that usually take decades to come to fruition prophets? No, of course not. It's just a series of instructions and guidelines designed to reach an agreed upon long or short term goal. Nothing more, nothing less. Truth is, this is exactly how Rome has always operated. Looking to the name they chose for their church proves this their mindset on DAY ONE! They chose to call themselves CATHOLIC. What does that word mean in English?

The word "CATHOLIC" is defined to mean "UNIVERSAL" in English. Their plans from day one was of global realization. That my friends is directly out of the pages of prophecy regarding Antichrist's desire to destroy Christianity on a global scale and take all the world as it's victim. Praise the Lord the true prophecy of our Lord says that will never happen!

Was St. Malachy a Prophet?

Now according "St. Malachy" there is to be two more popes after John Paul II. Now before going further let me say this. Satan has been well known to use the same method of attack since day one. He just likes to spice it up a bit here and there with a few small changes and a couple of twisted truths here and there so as to keep the essence of believability running throughout. History shows he keeps the people off guard with all sorts of distractions and well under his thumb so they cannot escape his grasp. All the while he does this he has them thinking they are true Christians. The "Seven Year Tribulation" lie is a perfect example of his crafty methods and twisted theology. Those that believe in this theory of his think there will be a "secret Rapture" of all the faithful Christians one day, and then those "left behind" will have seven years left during intense tribulation to get right with God. Among other signs, their main sign they watch for is the sudden disappearance of millions upon millions of Christians. They have even come up with fanciful books and movies on this spurious doctrine to keep the theory moving forward. Problem with that theory is, those that know how to investigate bible prophecy know the Word of God speaks quite descriptively regarding the second coming of Christ. There is overwhelming evidence within that Word it will not be a secret when He returns, nor will there be seven years to get ready for His return. There won't even be seven nano-seconds! However, Satan has conditioned the masses to such a point that they are actually counting on that seven years religiously. Had they studied prophecy properly, they would have discovered the truth about the sevent years that Daniel speaks of.

When Jesus comes, all those that fell for these strange prophecies will be caught off guard waiting for a "secret rapture" as their sign, just as prophecy predicted. But Jesus will come as a "thief in the night" for them. (1 Thessalonians 5:2) They will be completely taken by surprise when that day comes. When speaking of the last day on earth, Jesus uses Noah as an example and says in Luke 17:27 that "They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all." It was normal life when that flood came. No one expected it at all.

Once Jesus splits that Eastern sky and appears before every eye, they will know their pastors lied to them, and they will know they are lost eternally. It is then they will echo Jeremiah 8:20 that says, "The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved." For all the Bible verses that never seem to make it to the pulpits that preach a secret rapture, a 7 year tribulation, see these three pages...

• 7 Year Trib - Fact or Fiction
• The Rapture
• 70 weeks of Daniel

So, a word of warning to all. Do NOT trust Roman Catholic prophecy in any way shape or form. Have we not learned our lesson regarding Nostradamus and how many times he was proven wrong? If you do have a desire to trust Catholic prophecy, then trust it to be wrong and used by Satan to keep you looking in the wrong direction! It is designed to prevent your readiness of Christ. In fact, both the seven year trib, and secret rapture theories have already been documented as being fabricated by Roman Catholic Jesuit priests for the sole purpose of scaring the people back into the pews after Martin Luther was used of God to cause many to come out during the great reformation. I cover that historic fact in the top two links I just mentioned as well.

Getting back to Malachy's so called prophetic utterances; Rome has used this method of deception before. In this case, Malachy writes a "course of action" papal Rome needs to put into play so as to ensure global dominance once again since it lost it when Pagan Rome fell and again lost it when they received their prophesied mortal wound when Napolean abolished the political power of the Vaticna in 1798AD. This course of action is written by Malachy and then 'supposedly' tucked away in the Vatican archives and found some 400 years later.

Now I don't doubt for a minute the priest that discovered the list was unaware it was placed in the archives by his superiors a few days or even a few months prior for him to suddenly discover. After peering into what he believes to be an authentic 400 year old manuscript, he discovers St. Malachy's somewhat alluring ability to predict the popes even after the author's death. He doesn't realize it was written just a few days or even a few years prior and those writing it merely echoed historic facts regarding previous popes to make it appear Malachy was a prophet. So he brings the manuscript to his superiors, who of course already know of it's deceptive origin because they were the ones that placed it there for him to find. They of course play along with their deception and reward him for finding the document. It then becomes an "official" blessed document for all to trust.

Now all they need to do now is what people have done with Nostradamus's writings of old. Certain statements were made in Malachy's writing that have yet to come true. So they need to make it appear as if he is saying something that pertains to each pope in the coming days. This is why like Nostradamus, the so called prophecies were done in a very vague manner. They need to dig deep and fabricate events as well as idiosyncrasies of each and every pope through time so as to further validate their fabricated prophetic list. It's actually quite easy to pull off as I will share in a moment.

Like the people that embrace the seven year trib lie, thanks to the efforts of these lying prelates, many now trust Malachy's prophecies and feel we have only two popes left. Now don't get me wrong. I do believe they will do all they can to assure these propehcies appear fulfilled. And I do believe they will even begin to step up their efforts to kill more Christians. By this time the technology should be present that allows them to pull this off. They can and will take advantage of this at the exact time they feel it will work best! I wouldn't even put it past them to end the papal office in the coming days to restructure a new office of the Pope if their plans fail. That way they can still carry on as if their prophecy was true, just a bit slower than they planned. But... I have to ask, what happens when Jesus arrives before the prophecies in the document are ever fulfilled? THAT is what they're hoping for in fact. Like the seven year trib theory, all the people that trusted these false prophecies are caught off guard and unready for Christ's return. And seeing how human nature is to procrastinate, especially in the area of eternal interests, they are eternally doomed due to sheer laziness. At present, Rome can and will build up Malachy so much that most will trust Malachy's "prophecies." In so doing they will be watching for the signs that simply never come. And when Jesus returns, they are forever lost.

Am I saying this will happen.. no I am not, I am merely suggesting this as a plausible end. Truth is, the devil also understands prophecy. In fact he knows it far better then we do as he was created with a superior intelligence. After all, he is an angel. A fallen one yes, but an angel nonetheless. He can and does manipulate events all over the world to assure his false prophecies appear fulfilled. Take the nation of Israel for example. For eons he has convinced many they are the chosen people even though they deny God and His Son. Both Old and New testament statements declares the Jews are no longer the chosen people. (see historical and prophetic proof here) Or look at how he was able to use Rome to convince everyone the Sabbath was changed to Sunday. Not a single Bible verse can be shown to confirm this, yet the majority of the churches keep Sunday holy. Still, if you know how to study prophecy, you won't be caught off guard by falling for such lies.

The Roman Church has 1.2 billion souls under their roof right now. And most Protestant denominations are embracing her lies today thanks to their ecumenical efforts over the decades and recently thanks to the ultimate Roman Catholic commercial, "The Passion of the Christ." How is this a problem? All the fabrications in these so called prophetic utterances by Malachy are believed by the masses to be truth now simply because their religious leaders preach the pope a holy man. Billy Graham, a once staunch exposer of the Pope, now calls him a holy man of God. Even the Seventh-day Adventist church leaders, which of old; boldly and openly proclaimed the Pope antichrist. But now they proclaim the prophetic facts concerning him are worthy of the trash heap! In fact, every protestant denominational leader once said the pope was Antichrist. Yet today all churches call him blessed. Why? The prophecy clearly stated in Revelation 13:3 that, "all the world wondered after the beast."

When all the leaders are calling the man of sin holy, their followers will do so as well. In so doing, they stay within his evil grasp all the way up to the time prophecy declares the Vatican will burn in judgment. (See Rev. 18:9)

• Revelation 18:9, "And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,"

There following after they beast will seal their fate. At the time the Vatican burns, the people will have already been judged unworthy of Heaven.

• Revelation 22:11, "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still."

The plagues have started and their fate eternally sealed. However, if you look in St. Malachy's predictions, this burning of Rome is portrayed as "persecution" upon the church rather then judgment as the Bible says. As the people gather together trusting Rome's false prophets they will be shocked to the core when the eastern sky rips wide open revealing the end has come lo9ng before they expected. They will think they had plenty of time to repent. Most thought at least 7 years! But they will be eternally wrong! All they can do at this time is repeat Jeremiah 8:20 that says, "The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved."

What I would like to do now is share the last few "predictions" of the Roman Catholic "Saint" Malachy so as to ensure a better understanding of what they're up to here...

Click here for entire list

I clipped the list down for obvious reasons.(it's huge!) In the list, the grand majority of the "Motto's" were never "defined" of course to prove this even more a fallacy. It also proves it appears even Roman Catholic St. Malachy couldn't get all the facts straight when copying historic references. Truth is, the prelates in Rome are at a loss for words on how to decipher his folderol. So instead they choose never to comment on the "mottos" their so called Saint puts forth in the majority of cases. They choose rather to only look at the motto definitions of some of the more modern popes listed so as to appeal to the present generation. Since certain leaders in the church know the so called prophecies of Malachy are nothing more than an agenda of the Vatican and not prophecy at all, they make sure at every conclave to elect the new pope that he muct be able to match the "mottos" of Malachy to keep the lie going. It's just that simple. Furthermore, even if they have trouble in this area picking such a man, they can always use vagueness to their advantage as we see in Nostradamus' quatrains. In any event, let's take a look at the above "mottos" point by point shall we?

In the motto of John XXIII, Malachy used the words"pastor" and "marine." Is this not an extremely vague "prediction?" Are not all popes considered pastors? This "motto" would fit any man. Plus, how hard would it be to elect a pope that was either born, visited, or had an office near or in a coastal village to make this prophetic motto appear fulfilled? Ask any "honest" psychic and they will admit, vague predictions like this are how they get their money from people gullible enough to believe they know things about them they shouldn't know.  

In the motto of Paul VI it used the word "flower." So what's to stop the Vatican from placing flowers on this elected pope's papal crest after he's elected? How convenient is that? They can run as wide a deception as is needed here. It's the ultimate win win for them. If pope Paul came from a city that had a flowery name it would be even better. If his family name was the name of a flower better still. If he had a craving for having fresh flowers on his breakfast table each day better yet. Problem is, this pope had none of these features, so AFTER his election, his papal crest conveniently bears the image of three lilies. No other connection to "flowers" could ever be found in this man's life until that papal crest was carved. Yet, the precious loyal Catholics ate it up and called it a prophetic fulfillment!

In the motto of John Paul I it spoke of "half of a moon." So immediately the Vatican used that prediction to say it was fulfilled by his short term. (This is the pope that was poisoned for suggesting all Mason's leave the Vatican) Looking in the largest library on the planet, the Internet, I searched for the words "half moon" and "moon phases" to see if it could be used to validate their claim. I found not a single reference to a term "half moon" anywhere. I found cities named half moon and even ancient sailing vessels with that name, but nary a mention of the actual phases of the moon of this planet or any in our solar system for that matter. In fact the U.S. Naval Observatory website spoke of the moon in every phase possible. They mention the new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent. Still, the Vatican uses the term "half moon" as if it is an actual phase of the moon so as to some how make Malachy appear to be a prophet. Liars they are and liars they shall ever be. They merely lied to not only cover up a murder, but to make their prophet appear truthful as well.

Then of course we come to the motto of John Paul II that states "De labore Solis."  Which roughly translated means "from the labor or toil of the Sun." It does not say "eclipse" as they claim. Still, I ask how difficult would it be to generalize this prediction on any Catholic prelate? They claim it's fulfilled merely because Karol Wojtyla (Pronounced ~ Voy-tee-wah) was born during a solar eclipse. I don't have time to research each and every country on earth to see just how many millions of children were born on the same day as Karol Wojtyla, but rest assured the Vatican had literally millions upon millions of choices around the world to choose from to make this prophecy appear fulfilled. In fact, during their conclave to elect a pope, I am sure the question was asked of all the Cardinals in running for the papal throne. In any event, they could have also elected a pope that had a "solar" familiarity in either his name, the town he was born in, his family crest, or even if he had a passion for tirelessly planting fields of sunflowers in his youth. Truth is, the fact he was his mother's "SON" could also be sufficient in this case. Even a nickname could have afforded a fulfillment of Malachy's prediction. For example, my dad was called "Sonny" by his mother as well as all his friends while growing up. If Karol Wojtyla was called "Sonny" that too would have been used to validate Malachy's preiction. Still, even if none of these held true, they could have easily had his papal crest emblazoned with a solar disc as they did for Paul VI with the flowers, and Malachy would have been declared correct.

Their attempt to stretch the prediction to the limit is obvious in their assumption that his devotion to Mary the Pagan "Queen of Heaven" (Jer. 7:18) is in anyway a connection to the prophecy in Revelation 12:1. They even used the word "might" in their so called prophetic statement here. Look, either you're a prophet or you're not a prophet. Using the word "might" is an open and obvious intimation that someone is trying to convince you by their own lack of knowledge or faith in either their God or their researched data. Someone that truly understands prophecy NEVER uses words like "maybe... might... perhaps... or could be..." because the Creator God is the one speaking through them! The strange thing here is, they shared their confusion in what appears to be a permanent statement in this document tagged a so called prophetic utterance. Still, many clamor to their door just as prophecy said they would, (See Revelation. 13:3) and to this day declare Malachy a prophet.

The next motto is supposedly designed to predict the next pope by the statement "Gloria olivae." Gloria: meaning "halo, nimbus, fame or glory" and Olivae: meaning... well I searched all the online Latin and Italian references I could find and I couldn't come up with that word mentioned anywhere. However, it's obviously referring to olives. So, when seeking to elect this next pope, will they look for one with a craving for olives? From a town with olives as an export? From a family with an olive business? Did he work at Olive Garden restaurant's? Ok.. that's stretching it a bit, but that too would be a valid fulfillment had Olive Garden restaurants been in his area when growing up. In any event, I'm sure they will do all they can to once again convince the masses that Malachy is a prophet to trust. So this next pope's name or origin will be one to watch on this particular aspect.

Ok.. the final prediction and supposed "final" pope. As I said earlier, is this a method to catch the masses off guard? Yes, that is what I believe Satan is using these Roman prelates to do. Judging by the well documented history of this lying church, one can easily see Satan's hand in all they do. Satan knows his time is short and he also knows that the Vatican will burn before the eyes of man as just deserts for her sins against same. (Revelation 18)

Prophecy displays a violent end to this blasphemous church and here we see Satan speaking through one of his false prophets Rome calls St Malachy declaring that the church will continue to "feed the sheep through many tribulations." This gives false hope to those that trust Malachy as well as the corrupt prelates in this church. Since they think this prophecy is authentic, they will also be led to think they will be safe in the church even during this time of tribulation because the prophecy says the church will continue to "feed the sheep" at that time, intimating it to be a church of God. This is no different then the seven year tribulation lie or the secret rapture lie. It is designed by Satan to get great numbers of people ready to be caught 100% off guard when Jesus returns!

Bottom line is this brethren. How hard would it be for the Vatican to write out an agenda on 400 year old parchment that outlines their plans many years later regarding a new world order? They could easily make the document appear to be holy and filled with prophecies and then do all they can to make it appear fulfilled in a bevy of ways. All they would have to do is make sure the prophecies written were vague enough to where they could fill the positions for each pope easily while still carrying out their plans for global dominance. This I believe is what the Malachy prophecies entail. Nothing more, nothing less! After all, they have been caught numerous times in the past with fraudulent documents, why would anyone believe they wouldn't lie again? Truth is, especially today, everyone knows they're liars now. The molestation scandals alone prove this hands down!

By the way, the mention of the "seven hilled city" in this motto is yet another evidence that this is the church of Antichrist. For it is written quite plainly...

• Revelation 17:3, "So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."

How does prophecy define those seven heads? Look just a few verses lower to find out. The Angel that is showing John this vision actually tells him point blank what those heads actually mean.

• Revelation 17:9, "And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth."

Looking into the STRONG'S CONCORDANCE, how is that word "mountains" defined?

For further confirmation the Vatican does in fact sit on seven hills, see this...

For those of you that are unaware of who that woman is Revelation 17:9 is speaking of, please allow me to share. But before investigating the prophetic symbols that describe who she is, we need to understand that the Word of God tell us how to define symbols in prophecy. 2 Peter 1:20 says that, "...no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation." According to the Word, Christians are told NEVER to give our own opinion of what a prophetic symbol means. This as we just learned is exactly what the Vatican does. Did you see a single line of Scripture defining ANY of what "St. Malachy" said? As Christians, we must allow the Word of God to define it's own symbols. Our private interpretations are useless and easily used to expose us as false prophets as we just saw here. Truth is, there are 404 verses in the book of Revelation. Were you aware that out of those 404 verses, 278 of them carry the bulk of the prophetic message of that book? Did you also know that all 278 of those verses can be found almost word for word in all the other books of the Bible? In other words, THE BIBLE DEFINES ITSELF PERFECTLY! Don't let anyone give you their "opinion" or "interpretation" of what the Bible says. Let the Word define the Word! That's an easy way to expose false teachers. Just hear what they say, then open a Bible and see if what they say matches up with what the Lord says regarding a certain symbol.

So.. what is a woman in prophecy?

• Revelation 17:3, "So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."

In prophecy, a woman is defined as a church...

• Jeremiah 6:2 says, "I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman."

We also understand the Church of Jesus Christ is considered to be the "Bride of Christ" because of many areas of Scriptures that describe her as such. But let's go a bit further to define just who this woman is shall we? In Revelation 17:3 we see she is sitting on a beast. What does prophecy say a beast represents?

• Daniel 7:17, "These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth."
• Daniel 7:23, "Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces."

Even in today's world, nations are described as beasts? The USA is seen as an eagle. Russia is likened unto a bear, and China even carries the image of a dragon. Many years ago Daniel was given a great vision about all the nations of the earth till the end of time. In this vision he saw the last beast to be "diverse from all the others." (Daniel 7:19) But how diverse would it be? According to Revelation 17:3 as we have already seen, this beast will have a woman riding it. Since prophecy defines a woman as a church, and a beast as a nation. Is there such an entity described in history? Is there a church and state mixed together as one someplace today? Before answering, we also found out earlier this beast the woman is sitting on has seven heads. So, I ask, is there a place on earth right now that is a CHURCH and a NATION that sits on SEVEN HILLS?

Yes there is. Only one place on earth has ever done this. The Vatican of the Roman Catholic church!

So, I ask you this day, will you trust the lies of a church that has been proven lying to you since day one? Will you trust them when they say they will "feed the sheep through many tribulations?" Or will you look on from afar to see her burning in judgment as TRUE prophecy of Revelation 18 so clearly predicts?

The prelates of Rome call this city the "Eternal city" as an open and blunt mockery of the prophesied facts of a Mighty and Just God! This city is about to burn before the eyes of man just as prophecy predicted it will. No man on earth can start it, and no man on earth can stop it. The prophecy is sure. Christ is risen! And Christ will come again!
