Chapter 5 Rise of the Antichrist “I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.” – Thomas Jefferson. See videos and the end of this article The word “Rise” in this title is significant in that it is one of the words that Charles Manson made his death-servants write in their victims’ blood on the walls of murder scenes. He had unquestionable power and influence over their minds. His plan was to have his disciples murder famous people, and then somehow pin the murders on black people with the hope of starting a race war that would spiral into the war of apocalypse. He believed that some god of his called him to instigate this final war of mankind for purposes that only he and his demons could comprehend. Sick and twisted his mind, he happened to be right about something regarding endtime prophecy. He was right that the Bible predicts racial disturbances resulting from economic collapse and the breakdown of civilization. However, he was wrong about the apocalypse being a race war. Rather, the Bible describes the apocalypse as a controlled demolition of human civilization. The devil forgot to tell Charles Manson that economic opportunists will have a major role in leading the world into absolute desolation. God will have no other choice but to put the human specie out of its misery, like shooting a lame horse, as He did in Noah’s time. The collective consciousness of mankind is destined to assume the character flaws of Charles Manson, being how the devil will succeed in gathering the whole world around himself, since the world Manson loved and the devil he served both share in the same spirit of antichrist. Biblical endtime prophecy describes people giving demons power to rule over mankind. The antichrist will take advantage of the world at its weakest point, posing as the good guy, riding on a white horse (Rev 6-1,2) as though he were fighting for us; but the antichrist has anything but benevolence in mind for the world. Nebuchadnezzar’s dream serves as a skeletal structure for Daniel’s dream, so that when you superimpose one over the other, they seem to snap together, furnishing us with a rough sketch of how the antichrist comes to power and acting as a guide for the rest of Bible prophecy throughout Scripture. Following is the dream of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, interpreted by Daniel, "You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue-an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. "This was the dream, and now we will interpret it to the king. You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of heaven has given you dominion and power and might and glory; in your hands he has placed mankind and the beasts of the field and the birds of the air. Wherever they live, he has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold. "After you, another kingdom will rise, inferior to yours. Next, a third kingdom, one of bronze, will rule over the whole earth. Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron-for iron breaks and smashes everything-and as iron breaks things to pieces, so it will crush and break all the others. Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay. "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever. This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands-a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces. "The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and the interpretation is trustworthy." Dan 2:31-45 NIV These four kingdoms, starting in the days of Babylon (600 BC) and ending with the burning of Rome (64 AD), is roughly six hundred years, when man began to accumulate knowledge, suggesting that our contemporary age is built on four empires that we will soon mention. Chapter List Nebuchadnezzar’s dream indicated that the Medes would take over the Babylonian empire, then it says in Dan 5:30,31, “That very night Belshazzar, king of the Babylonians, was slain, and Darius the Mede took over the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two.” The prophecy of the Medes taking over the Babylonian empire was fulfilled in Daniel's own time. If we consider this a fulfillment of prophecy, and if we consider World War II a fulfillment of prophecy, we must concede that endtime prophecy has not yet been fulfilled. This suggests a principle of Scripture outlined in the following statement: Harbinger (Foreshadow) -- The timelessness of endtime prophecy is exemplified in that some of the events that will take place in the last days have already occurred, seemingly to have fulfilled the prophecies, but these "fulfilled events" illustrate predictions of the future, meaning they will occur again, only in a different place, with a different purpose and in a different age. Nebuchadnezzar’s statue represented four metals, which in turn represented four Old Testament kingdoms, which had one thing in common: they were all world empires. Similarly, Daniel’s dream also represented four world empires, the difference being that Daniel’s dream represented four kingdoms of the New Testament era. The nations involved in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream were: Babylon of gold, the two kingdoms of Media and Persia of silver, Greece of bronze and Rome of iron. Although gold is not a practical metal for building a war machine, it is practical for financing one. Rome happens to be the only world empire that transcended both Old and New Testament eras. Rome is reminiscent of Babylon in that neither are represented by its country: Babylon (Iraq) and Rome (Italy). Moreover, the Vatican claims to be a nation in its own right; thus we could say that it is a city within a city (Rome) and country within a country (Italy). Perhaps the antichrist wants a city without a country to counterfeit Jerusalem that stands on its own merit as representing the heavenly city (New Jerusalem) that has no country associated with it, for the city itself is the kingdom! Using these facts, we can establish the identity of Nebuchadnezzar’s fourth kingdom, being reminiscent of Rome in four important ways: Both Babylon and Rome captured Israel and reduced Jerusalem and its temple to rubble. Prior to overthrowing Israel, God sent them prophets in attempt to thwart their captivity. The prophetic books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Lamentations document God’s efforts to turn Israel from their evil ways, who were not heeded. Jesus Christ Himself came and spoke to Israel during the Roman seizure. After Israel’s captivity God used his prophets to write about the end times Daniel after the Babylonian takeover John the revelator on the island of Patmos (Rev 1-9) after the Roman seizure. 4. The end of days will therefore be similar to the days of Babylon and Rome in that Jerusalem will once again be leveled (Mat 24:15-22; Lk 21:20-24). Jesus spoke of these devastating times in the following verses: "When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. For this is the time of punishment [vengeance] in fulfillment of all that has been written. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Luke 21:20-24 NIV When you take into account that the context of the above passage is referring to the last days, and then note the language He used to refer to His own time, it becomes clear that when the Romans came and dispersed the Jews into all the nations in 70 AD, launching the period of the gentiles, he was simultaneously talking about events that would unfold in the last days in very much the same manner. In other words, Jesus was able to interlace Jerusalem’s destruction in the first century with endtime prophecy, because they are essentially mirror images of each other. That is, Rome will once again tread under foot the holy city for forty-two months (Rev 11-2). Chapter List The country representing the legs, feet and toes of Nebuchadnezzar’s statue, the foundation of Satan’s one-world government, is picturesque of the fall of Rome, having an insufficient foundation for supporting so much weight. Taking a closer look at Nebuchadnezzar’s statue, each nation has its own metallic identity, except the kingdom of the antichrist, which mixes clay with iron in the legs, feet and toes, weakening the foundation. It describes the fourth kingdom as mixing iron with clay as an analogy for mixing the races, according to Dan 2-43, “Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of iron and partly of baked clay, so this will be a divided kingdom that will be partly strong and partly brittle.” Then this verse, “The people will be a mixture, but will not remain united anymore than iron mixes with clay.” This refers to an ethnically diverse people. The King James Version puts it this way (Dan 2:43), “As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.” The seed of men refers to socially and genetically mixing the races, but they do not adhere to each other, as iron does not adhere to clay. This points to the great social experiment that the ultra-elite are imposing on the world, but their social experiment will fail with anarchy and chaos ensuing due to racial disturbances. Whichever nation is depicted as the melting pot of the world is the most likely candidate for the foundation of Satan’s world empire. That country is none other than the United States. In other words, the Bible predicts racial integration (or disintegration) as the work of Satan that has contributed as much to encouraging the demise of the human race as greed of the moneylenders. We may be the melting pot of the world, but we have not resolved our differences and the Bible predicts death and destruction to erupt with ethnic roots in the nation represented by the iron legs of the statue. The legs suggest civil war in that they are divided. No other nation in the world boasts of its ethnic diversity like the United States, but its iron and clay have not mixed. The legs themselves were strong, made of pure iron, smashing everything to pieces. This was America in its earlier years, but then something happened and another kingdom spawned from it, parasitic in nature, relying on the iron for its strength, contributing nothing, socially and genetically weakening the iron. The antichrist’s contributive substance according to Nebuchadnezzar’s statue being nothing more than clay, which by no means is a metal, hence not a legitimate kingdom relies solely on the iron for its strength and identity as a nation. This clay, then, represents both the deterioration of the human gene pool and of the world, illustrating the frailty of this emerging one-world empire. (The Bible treats the word “beast” as a generic term to mean either the false prophet or the antichrist.) The difference between them is that the beast is a fascist, political, religious, totalitarian dictator, whereas his false prophet represents capitalism out of control, dominating countries, which is the opposite of fascism. Every animal on earth has originated from the wilderness, but the wilderness is off limits to the Beast! Although the antichrist and his false prophet will be in collusion; they will also have conflicting interests, and these conflicts will cause internal struggles between them that they will not resolve, and these conflicts will arise form greed, lust and pride, the very things that Satan has inflicted on the world since the onset of man. Catholicism was once a world power that held humanity in its grip and spread its influence around the globe. It would have destroyed the world long ages ago had it access to technology in their glory days. Watch for the rise of Catholicism in the coming days, and when it becomes a word-religion with the wealth of the Beast behind it and the power of technology at his disposal, the pope's power to do evil will know no bounds. The irony is that science dethroned Catholicism during the renaissance period and brought the age of enlightenment, bringing the age of technology with it. Catholicism’s influence as a one-world religion has reduced to a lot of sexual predators posing as spiritual leaders, but one day the world will become so desperate as to place such a man as the pope into a position of spiritual authority over the whole world, so that all of mankind will have to answer to him just as in the glory days when Catholicism once ruled the earth with an iron scepter. If they called that period the dark ages, what will we call the days when Catholicism is reinstated as a one-world religion, this time with the iron fist of technology capable of destroying the world? In the Dark Ages Catholicism worked with kings of nations to enslave the people, and in the last days it will be no different, with the Pope acting as the False Prophet. Chapter List With Nebuchadnezzar’s statue, the arms and breast of silver are similar to the two-horned ram of Daniel’s dream, and it is not a secret about which nations the ram represents. Of Old Testament times Dan 8-20 says, “The two-horned ram that you saw represents the kings of Media and Persia.” Modern-day Media and Persia represent the landmass from eastern Turkey and Iraq into Iran and eastward into Afghanistan and Pakistan. This is the homeland of radical Islam and religious terrorism and Jihad in our modern world. In Daniel's dream it says that a goat attacked the ram. Who is the goat? Daniel 8, 4-8 says, I saw the ram butting westward, northward, and southward, and no other beasts could stand before him nor was there anyone to rescue from his power, but he did as he pleased and magnified himself. While I was observing, behold, a male goat was coming from the west over the surface of the whole earth without touching the ground; and the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes. He came up to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing in front of the canal, and rushed at him in his mighty wrath. I saw him come beside the ram, and he was enraged at him; and he struck the ram and shattered his two horns, and the ram had no strength to withstand him. So he hurled him to the ground and trampled on him, and there was none to rescue the ram from his power. Then the male goat magnified himself exceedingly. But as soon as he was mighty, the large horn was broken; and in its place there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four winds of heaven." These four horns represent the four tiers of Nebuchadnezzar’s statue: the head of gold, the arms and torso of silver, the thighs of bronze and the legs and feet of iron and clay. The fact that the goat came from the west indicates that it represents the United States, and the fact that the goat traversed the earth without touching the ground suggests a war using missiles armed with nuclear warheads. This suggests the scenario that the Middle East will attack America again, incurring far worse destruction and loss of life than happened at 9/11. America will retaliate by sending them a few nuclear ICBMs and turn their desert into glass. However, this will not sit well with their allies: Russia and China, and it will ultimately cause WWIII. Daniel had a dream of a great and terrifying beast that had ten horns, and it says in Daniel 7-8, “While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them [an eleventh horn], and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it [making four total]; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering great boasts.” This horn (the false prophet) will promise to refinance and restore the global economy, but his real motive is to take control of Russia and China and assimilate their economies like he did all the other developed countries of the world. Thus, we have a scenario of Russia and China rising to power in the last days, while moneylenders are taking over the global economy. World War III will therefore encompass the struggle between the ram and the goat. The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and will come up out of the Abyss and go to his destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was, now is not, and yet will come. This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for a little while. The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction. Rev 17:8-11 NIV These verses describe this eighth horn as Satan's empire, being one of the seven. Remember, Daniel 7-8 said that three horns from ten will be pulled from their roots making seven, and the one that uprooted them is the eighth horn that was never numbered with the ten. He is the antichrist who once was a world religious tyranny, referring to Catholicism, now is not, but will regain its former glory at the end of the age. The eighth king is the Beast. The antichrist intends to recreate Catholicism into a religion of Satan worshippers, meaning the False Prophet (antichrist) will cause the world to worship himself. Chapter List Compare the two horns of the ram (Dan 8:3), “One was longer than the other, with the longer one coming up last,” with Rev 17:10, “…one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while.” These verses are talking about the same two horns, thus the same two countries, Russia and China. We know that China is currently rising as a giant from its continuously growing economy and promises to involve itself in all significant international affairs, and Russia will be heavily involved in the fulfillment of endtime prophecy as the following verses articulate (Ezek 38:15-16), You will come from your place in the far north, you and many nations with you, all of them riding on horses, a great horde, a mighty army. You will advance against my people Israel like a cloud that covers the land. In days to come, O Gog, I will bring you against my land, so that the nations may know me when I show myself holy through you before their eyes. NIV These verses refer to a time after the Beast assimilates the economies of the world, a time after the Rapture, and even after the Bowls of God's judgment, referring to the war of Armageddon, the very last war of mankind. It says the northernmost country will lead many nations to war against Israel. Why are the nations warring against Israel? It would be easy to assume it is because Israel is God’s chosen nation and that people have been warring against Israel since God chose Abraham. The nations of the world led by Russia will surround Israel intending to pound it into the ground. Rev 11-1,2 speaks of an earlier time regarding Jerusalem, saying that the gentiles “will [trod] the holy city underfoot... for forty-two months,” referring to the occupation of the Beast in Jerusalem. Therefore, the war of Armageddon is about the nations rooting out the Beast from Jerusalem. Adding another twist, God will have instructed those in the world after the Rapture who have not taken the mark of the beast to migrate to Jerusalem and be the Lord's welcoming committee when He comes, who will be caught in the crossfire of man's war against God, and He will come to save them from His enemies. Summarizing so far, according to the book of Daniel chapters two, seven and eight, there are seven phases of the antichrist’s plan to take over the world. The ten horns of Daniel’s dream represent the ten toes of Nebuchadnezzar’s statue, which were made partly of clay, weakening the base that must support the weight of the entire statue. They represent ten world banks that take control of the global economy. There will be a global economic collapse, and in the process of restructuring the 11th horn will uproot three of ten world banks on his rise to power, making him stronger than the remaining seven. People will riot and loot and murder; a total loss of law and order will ensue (anarchy), causing the breakdown of civilization throughout the nations. Nations will go to war with each other, and a nuclear holocaust will a result (WWIII). The world will accuse Jews and Christians for all the problems in the world, and a great persecution will ensue. The Jews will come to believe in Jesus as their Messiah, and the persecution will stimulate a divinely ordained Great Endtime Revival of Christianity A spiritual world ruler (the Pope) will arise in Rome in response to the revival originating in Jerusalem (the False Prophet), and he will fail to stifle the revival. In response to the antichrist's failure to stifle the Great Endtime Revival the Beast will burn the Vatican and migrate to Jerusalem to pose as Israel's Messiah. He will break ties with all political and religious authorities and ally his religion with the Jewish Talmud to create ties with the orthodox Jews, causing confusion in attempt to obfuscate the work of God. The ten horns of Nebuchadnezzar’s statue represent money. It is almost impossible for this interpretation to be wrong, since money has always played a central theme in man’s world throughout the ages, and has always been controlled by dark forces. It would be natural for Satan’s kingdom to have money as its foundation, and it would be just as natural for that foundation to be tenuous, since Satan himself has no foundation as an entity, being he has a poor standing with his Creator. It makes sense that Satan would be completely and utterly bankrupt of all substance and character with the only ability to steal, kill and destroy, which will ultimately turn on his own empire. Satan would be nothing without man giving him power though transgression. The book of Revelation talks about an eighth king as one of seven, implying that he doesn’t have a legitimate place, just like he didn’t have a representative metal in Nebuchadnezzar’s statue. It is as though he were a ghost. This is the god that man has chosen for himself to rule over him, who has set man free to realize the full potential of his sinful nature. Chapter List * * * * Starting over, Nebuchadnezzar’s empire in the 600’s B.C. represents the last days kingdom of the antichrist, which is a montage of all the empires that dominated the world after the Babylonian empire to the present day. Here is Daniel’s dream, Daniel said: "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me were the four winds of heaven churning up the great sea. Four great beasts, each different from the others, came up out of the sea. "The first was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a man, and the heart of a man was given to it. "And there before me was a second beast, which looked like a bear. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. It was told, `Get up and eat your fill of flesh!' "After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, one that looked like a leopard. And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. This beast had four heads, and it was given authority to rule. "After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast-terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns. "While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth that spoke boastfully. Dan 7,2-8 NIV There is something about the ancient Babylonian empire that has become iconic to endtime prophecy and deserves center stage in God’s revelation of world events. The Babylonian empire invented the concept of banking and money lending sometime around Nebuchadnezzar’s reign, which is why the Bible uses Babylon to describe the evils of Satan throughout its discourse of endtime prophecy. We live in a world that we have created through money. Consequently, the further we wander into this manmade world, the more dependent we become on money and the further we stray from nature and the wilderness, hence the more susceptible we become to economic tyranny. People will have intentionally destroyed the economy so they can rebuild it according to their own specifications for the purpose of enslaving the people. Humanity will be controlled by a handful of people determining the lives of everyone. We are on the brink of self-annihilation. Rev 13:1 says, “And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.” The horns represent power, while the heads represent governmental leaders, thus making a distinction between puppet rulers and positions of power in the moneylenders. Government officials in America are puppet rulers, and that goes for virtually every developed country of the world, while the moneylenders are the true lords of the earth. On each head there was a blasphemous name. The Jewish Talmud is more blasphemous than intolerant Islam, implying that the heads of governments in America are adherents to the Jewish Talmud, who will spread their antichristian propaganda, condemning Christianity in society, and persecuting both Jews and Christians to the death, gathering them into concentration camps for execution. Nebuchadnezzar’s dream was about a statue made of four different metals, while Daniel’s dream was about four terrifying beasts that rose from the sea. They both resemble the four horsemen of the Apocalypse (Revelation chapter six) that were given authority “over a fourth of the earth to kill with sword, with famine, with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.” They all depict Satan’s wrath. Dan 7-2 says, “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me were the four winds of heaven churning up the great sea.” What you have with the illustration of a churning sea is a state of chaos, representing humanity. Through the combination of Daniel’s and Nebuchadnezzar’s dreams we have the scenario of economic disaster triggering racial instability, creating an atmosphere of global pandemonium churning up the nations of the world, and within this environment four great beasts arose from the sea of humanity, each different from each other. The number “four” keeps popping up. There were four metals to Nebuchadnezzar’s statue, representing four distinct countries, and there were four beast in Daniel's dream. Later, when the goat’s horn is broken, four horns grew in its place. The book of Revelation mentions four horsemen. Now Daniel is saying there are four winds of heaven. All four metals of the statue represent distinct countries. Chapter List Rev 6-1,2 says, “I watched as the Lamb opened the first of seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.” The first seal is a rider on a white horse carrying a bow but mentioned no arrows, suggesting it is not a conventional war, but a war of economics, and the fact that he rode a white horse suggests deception. The second seal refers to WWIII, and the third seal refers to famine, according to Rev 6-5,6; the rider of the horse, “had a pair of scales in his hand saying, ‘a quart of wheat for a denarius [a days wages] and two quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and the wine,’” depicting hyperinflation inflation that will not affect the ultra rich. The fourth seal refers to death by famine, murder, pestilence and the wild beasts of the earth, in short, the unraveling of civilization. The fact that people are killed by wild animals means that people are homeless and are living in the woods, causing a population explosion of carnivorous predators (possibly including feral dogs) resulting from an increased food supply (human flesh). Finally, the fifth seal is martyrdom. God begins to intervene by evidence of the sixth seal, which involves an extremely large earthquake that rocks the earth so violently that the stars will appear to fall from the sky. Smoke and ash will partially block out the sun, turning the moon blood red, suggesting that this earthquake will trigger many volcanoes that were on the verge of erupting. Read these next three passages keeping in mind that they refer to significant events that will shape the destiny of the world to fulfill Bible prophecy by a one-world government that requires its subjects to worship a man. There will be three assaults against the world by two different men both demonically driven. Against popular belief there is more than one antichrist as it says in 1John 2-18, “Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour” NIV. The ten horns will avail their resources to the antichrist in return for the opportunity to rule with him, each receiving a kingdom and authority when they pool their resources together as a single economic, military and political system. Their objective is to confiscate all the wealth of the world and turn the earth into a giant sweatshop, so they can rule over the nations in the most luxurious empire the world has ever known, designed just for them. The Beast will be the first of two men that Satan will possess as he merges three of ten horns together to form an eighth horn (10+1-3=8). These ten horns are world banks that will hijack the global economy and siphon off national economies, betraying the spurious moneylenders and effectively commanding militaries. One will be the head of it, called the Beast, who is also an antichrist. He will have corralled all the wealth of the world, but the fourth antichrist is the one that gets all the notoriety, because he calls for the extermination of Christians in the world. He is a religious figure, who will demand the world’s worship posing as god in human flesh, similar to the character of king Nebuchadnezzar. He is the great whore of Babylon, Revelation's False Prophet. While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn [an eleventh horn], a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first [ten] horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth that spoke boastfully. Dan 7:8 NIV The phrase, “eyes like a man and a mouth that spoke boastfully,” is a trademark of the antichrist and represents the head a one-world economy, evidenced by the all-seeing eye on the back of your one-dollar bill. China, the leading producer of goods in the world. We buy and consume their products, and we have paid them with "printed" money. When China quits showing a profit margin, it will attempt to confiscate American assets and exact rights and titles over property for payment on our debt. In other words, China has not been our lender; it has been buying the United States. Dan 8-3,4 says, "I looked up, and there before me was a ram with two horns, standing beside the canal, and the horns were long. One of the horns was longer than the other but grew up later. I watched the ram as he charged toward the west and the north and the south. No animal could stand against him, and none could rescue from his power. He did as he pleased and became great.” This two-horned ram represents Russia and China. Chapter List One truism of economics is that money is not lost; it is only transferred. That is not exactly true; nevertheless, the wealth of America along with its job-base has been transferred to China. The United States owes trillions of dollars and we have no means of repaying our debt, except by "printed" money, which only adds more debt, so the ten moneylenders will attempt to divvy up America among themselves. This nation’s government will be in effect taken over by the moneylenders to be governed not by politicians, but by the moneylenders themselves (world banks), and they will hire puppet rulers to reside in positions of authority, who will see to it that their needs are met on a political basis in order to ensnare the people in its tyrannical economic web. The bedfellow relationship between governments and this global elites is already established; the basis of fulfilling Bible prophecy is in place; there is nothing left to do now but wait for this endtime scenario to unfold. An economic strategist, the eleventh horn, will emerge from the ten toes of America’s oppression and will betray the moneylenders, assimilating three world banks on his rise to power, becoming greater than any of the other seven and will help the U.S. finance a military retaliation against Russia and China, becoming the grounds for the next world war, amounting to a nuclear exchange. A nation with nuclear capability will wipe New York City off the map, which will mirror the impending fate of Babylon, the city of Satan (Rome). The global economy will then take a nosedive far greater than the crash of 1929 as Rev 6-6 speaks of a loaf of bread sold for a day’s wages. Like Hitler’s Germany, America will be ready to accept whatever terms is required to return to a state of normalcy. This next passage depicts the scenario just described; the United States is the goat in Dan 8,5-8 that refers to a military coup engendering World War III. As I was thinking about this, suddenly a goat with a prominent horn between his eyes came from the west, crossing the whole earth without touching the ground. He came toward the two-horned ram I had seen standing beside the canal and charged at him in great rage. I saw him attack the ram furiously, striking the ram and shattering his two horns. The ram was powerless to stand against him; the goat knocked him to the ground and trampled on him, and none could rescue the ram from his power. The goat became very great, but at the height of his power his large horn was broken off, and in its place four prominent horns grew up toward the four winds of heaven. Out of one of them came another horn, which started small but grew in power to the south and to the east and toward the Beautiful Land. Dan 8:5-9 NIV This passage refers to America attacking Russia and China, who are allies of each other. Although the Bible says that the antichrist and the false prophet work together, their relationship is tenuous at best. When it says the “goat came from the west crossing the surface of the whole earth without touching the ground,” it sounds like military air superiority, or possibly Inter Continental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs). Then it says that the goat’s one prominent “horn was broken off.” Just as the United States is basking in its victory, four powerful kings will replace him, who together will not have the power of the former goat. From those four nations and a fifth king will emerge (the Vatican of Rome), who will be a religious figure. He will be the second of two antichrists, the first being the Beast, head of the world monetary system. He will hire to Pope to quell a Great Endtime Revival led by the Jews, but after the Pope fails in his objective, the Beast will burn his city and take his place over Jerusalem as Israel’s messiah, appealing to the orthodox Jews. He will go there and set up his kingdom in attempt to control the revival by claiming to be the object of their worship, but the saints will see through this man, but those who do not belong to Christ will believe in him (Matt 24,23-28). After the devastation of World War III a bout with poverty and famine will grip the world, preparing peoples’ minds to receive this religious deception purely through desperation. The false prophet will use his global economy to rally the whole world around the antichrist’s religion for the purpose of establishing a one-world government. WWIII will leave the world in economic ruin, which is the perfect environment for Satan to take complete control of mankind, and he will do it by bailing out all the nations of the world under the condition that they use his money to integrate into his new global economic system that will facilitate the mark of the Beast. The following passage refers to this religious takeover that is reminiscent to the Catholic reign of the dark ages. It is the second of two assaults that Satan will levy against the world. The antichrist will launch a crusade against the saints. Then I saw another beast, coming out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon. He exercised all the authority of the first beast on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth in full view of men. Because of the signs he was given power to do on behalf of the first beast, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. He was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666. Rev 13,11-18 NIV Chapter List The first beast emerged from the sea (of people), but the second beast emerged from the earth, that is, he came from hell! He is the False Prophet. The Beast is actually in command, but internal struggles for control cause fissures in their kingdom, which eventually lead to their demise. The passage above indicates that this economic strategist will reform Daniel’s two-horned ram (Russia and China; Dan 8,3-7), resulting in the false prophet. Revelation describes it as having two horns like a lamb, portraying it as a young, innocent creature, but it spoke like a dragon. He will cause all who refuse to worship the antichrist to be killed by forcing everyone to receive the mark, knowing that Christians will sacrifice their lives before they will take the mark, thus the mark is designed to expose Christians. The antichrist will have charisma enough to rally together the whole developed world for the purpose worshipping him, whose fatal wound had been "healed". The purpose of the False Prophet, whose only interest is in self-adulation, is to glorify the Beast, whose only interest is in money, wealth and power. They will try to meet each other’s needs in attempt to create a symbiotic relationship, but it will ultimately fail because of Satan’s lack of character. In summary, the seals in Revelation chapter six are a series of events that will transpire in domino-effect with the antichrist coming to power at the end of the fifth seal, suggesting that these first five seals are judgments from God in the form of Satan's wrath. The eleventh horn will rise from the ten horns and take over the world monetary system. By the time he has finished destroying the U.S. economy, he will have siphoned off all its wealth and power, leaving it in ruins. He will then turn to Russia and China and siphon off their resources after WWIII, leaving behind a smoldering pair of countries to reach his goal of owning all the wealth of the world. However, just as Satan is literally manifesting himself as god of this world, the true God of heaven will stand from his glorious throne and with His great and awesome power will begin to reign in his people through a massive worldwide revival, led by the Jews and originating in Jerusalem. In response to this revival, Satan will reform Catholicism and proclaim it the only religion, and all must worship the god of this religion or forfeit his life. He will fail to deceive the saints, and so Satan will burn down the Vatican with his own hands and migrate to Jerusalem and pose as Israel's long awaited Messiah in attempt to stifle the Christian revival, but the orthodox Jews will extricate him from their temple. He will implement the mark of the beast at this point and begin a crusade of killing Christians, triggering the judgment of God in the trumpets and later the bowls. James R.
