We live in troubled times. The 7 years of God's End Times likely begin on or about Sept. 17-28, 2020 with many tribulations occurring soon thereafter (ie. evil events by Satan &/or judgements by God).

If you suddenly die before you are a Born Again, True Christian, you are doomed to eternity in Hell. With End Times starting soon, many more people (thousands to millions to billions more) will die through Satan's evil plans. DO NOT ignore this warning, nor procrastinate!

Apr. 8, 2024 - God, Eclipse, USA, Israel

### Update #1 Begin: 2024-4-8 23:15   ###

The eclipse is over.  We have spiritually crossed over to the other side, into judgment.

Eclipses are one of the signs, or harbingers, to warn of future events, as  mentioned in Gen 1:14 of the Bible.  God uses natural disaster to warn and judge the wicked.  Earthquakes are mentioned as tokens of God's power (eg. Job 9:6) and His anger (eg. Psalms 68:8; 18:7; Isaiah 13:13).

USA continue to threaten and impede Israel's ongoing attempt at self-defense.  It is reasonable to intetpret this as USA cursing Israel, and are therefore subject to God's judgment  under Genesis 12:2-3.

Satan loves to copy & mock God, and to use and manipulate through fear.  So far, Satan hasn't obviously added any of his fear or evil to this eclipse; but still might.

Most prophecies allow 3 days warning.  Ninevah received 40 days warning of God's pending judgment.  I therefore suggest judgment against USA will arrive on or about Apr. 11 to May 18, 2024.

Here is my thoughts on what really happened at the Apr. 8 2024 totsl eclipse (both seen & un-seen), and what comes next:



###   End Update #1   ###


One brilliant person has figured out that the planets and the Constellation Cetus (Whale, as in Sign of Jonah) will create a celestial menorah alignment of the stars and planets, when viewed at totality maximum, as seen from "Little Egypt", Indiana USA (Time: 2024-4-8 14:00:44).

The menorah is the lamp stand used in the Jewish Temple, as designed and commanded by God Almighty.

The planets will be the shining candle lights of the menorah in the following sequence (left to right):


Uranus
Jupiter
Mercury
Moon-Sun eclipse at centre branch
Venus
Saturn
Mars

The path of the 2017 total eclipse over USA forms a giant "X" with the 2024 eclipse, with "X marks the spot" over Little Egypt, Indiana, USA.

Coincidence?  I think not.  This is God's End Times sign of Jonah, calling everyone to repent their sins, then come to Jesus for salvation.  Will you?

God's Prophets & Prophecies

Jesus prophesied of the "Sign of Jonas" during End Times:

[Mat 12:39 KJV] "39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:"

[Mat 16:4 KJV] "4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed."

[Luk 11:29–30 KJV] "29 And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet. 30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation."

Salvation

If all the above scares you, it indicates you have a weak or non-existant faith in God, so you should reconsider your current situation.  Confess & repent your sins!

If you couldn't care less, you are naive or deceived.

Without God, you are a sitting duck and will suffer greatly through all of Satan's antics, persecution, and/or God's tribulations.

If you refuse to come to God as His obedient & loving child, then you will end up in the Lake of Fire, making your life eternally worse to the worst possible outcome.

Instead, immediately establish an intimate, loving relationship with Jesus Christ, as your God, LORD, Saviour, and friend.

There is no time to waste!  In good times (ie. today), 2 people die every second, 150,000 people every 24 hours.  Most didn't realize it was their last day until it was too late. In bad times (eg. WW3 nuclear war described above) 2 billion people will die.  If you die in your sins, you have a guaranteed reservation for all eternity in the Lake of Fire.

To be saved & go to Heaven, you must:    know God; belief that Jesus is God, the Messiah, and our LORD and Saviour (Is. 53:5; John 3:16; 1 Cor 15:3-6); love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mat 22:37-39); be Born Again (John 3:3); water baptized in the name of God The Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit by water immersion (Mat 28:19); ask for & receive the fiery baptism of the Holy Spirit (Mat 3:11; Mar. 1:8; Luke 3:16, 22; John 3:5; Acts 1:7, 8:17; Rom 6:1-10; 1 Cor 6:19); fully forgive all those who trespassed against you (Mat 6:14-15); confess to God all your sins and repent (1 John 1:9); pray to God for forgiveness of your sins (Heb 8:12); obey God’s commandments to the best of your ability (John 14:15); hate all sin and love what God loves; maintain a deep, loving, & intimate relationship with God (eg. read the Bible every day (2 Tim 3:16); pray to God continually (1 Thes 5:17), etc.); pick up your cross and follow Jesus by sharing your testimony and preaching the Gospel to every creature.

God's 26 Commandments for Christians, a summary of 300+ Bible verses will likely help you get started quickly.   https://et-manitoulin.blogspot.com/2019/12/gods-26-commandments-for-christians.html

We support Israel & the Jews

Israel isn't perfect, no different than the imperfections of any other country.  

In spite of Israel's imperfections, we support Israel and the Jews.  

Israel has just as much right to exist as any other nation.  

Jews have a right to exist, equal to all other peoples and ethnicities.

We condemn Hamas for their jihadist terrorism attack against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

We condemn Hamas' kidnapping, and their taking of hostages of Israeli citizens back to Gaza.

Hamas is a terrorism organization by both word and deed, and therefore Hamas needs to be quickly & permanently neutralized, and dismantled.

We condemn the supporters of Hamas.  Whether they are shallow thinkers who have been deceived, or they are fully knowledgeable supporters of terrorism, in the end they directly or indirectly support terrorism.

Oct. 7, 2023 is likely the start of the Psalm 83 War, as prophesied in the Bible more than 3,000 years ago.

Psalm 83 war likely sparks World War 3, and the rise of the AntiChrist, who takes over the world as an evil dictator.


Reasons

As Born Again obedient Christians, we follow God and His Word, as recorded in the Bible.

The Jewish people have a covenant with God, given to Abraham and all his seed.

[Gen 12:1–8 KJV] "1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran. 5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came. 6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land. 7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him. 8 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD."

The ceremony in Genesis Chapter 15 clearly shows that this is an irrevocable and uncondititional covenant, meaning that Abraham has no duties to perform on his side of the covenant.  The specific lands gifted to Abraham are defined:

[Gen 15:18–21 KJV] "18 In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: 19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, 20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, 21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites."

Later, God and Abraham have another covenant, where God requires Abraham and his seed to perform certain deeds to validate this additional covenant.  Here, again, God gifts the Caninnites land to Abraham

[Gen 17:1–8 KJV] "1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. 2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. 3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, 4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. 5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. 6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. 8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."

In spite of the above, the Palestinians object.  The Palestinians want all of the land for themselves.  Not only that, Hamas, the elected representatives of the people of Gaza, wants to kill every Jew in Israel, and also kill every Jew on planet Earth, no matter which other country they live in, no matter the citizenship of the Jew.

We, as Born Again obedient Christians, should take Hamas' words at face value.  They are obviously antisemites who believe in genocide, and ethnic cleansing of the Middle East, and the entire planet Earth.

We, as Born Again obedient Christians, believe that the Jews and Israel have a right to exist.  We support Israel's right to exist.

The attack by Hamas and the Palestinians of Gaza on Oct. 7, 2023 was mainly against women, children, young adults, and old men in Israel.  Some Israeli soldiers (IDF) and military outposts were also attacked.  Hamas brutally killed over 1,200 Israelis.  To make it even worse, Hamas kidnapped and took as hostages over 200 civilians (ie. women, children, babies, grandmothers, senior citizens, etc.).

So that you can judge for yourself, I have collected the links to the evidence found on the Internet.


Evidence

The following is not comprehensive nor balanced, but summarizes what struck me as important, as the tsunami of news flooded by me.




Bashir Al Assad, President of Syria, is Alawite.

The Alawite people are an ethno-religious group who practice a branch of Shia Islam. Originally from the area that is modern-day Iraq, they fled religious persecution in the 10th century, settling in the Latakia province on Syria's west coast.

Syria:   87% Muslim (of the 87%:   60% Sunni Arabic speaking, Alawite 10%, 10% Kurds-Sunni, 5% Turkmen-Sunni, 1% Circassians-Sunni), plus 10% Christian, 3% other

A female IDF soldier who worked on guarding the border fence between Israel and Gaza for many months prior to the Oct. 7, 2023 attack by Hamas testifies what wss happening before Oct. 7, 2023:

“We [the IDF] sat on shifts and saw the convoy of vans [owned by Hamas]. We saw the training, people shooting and rolling, practicing taking over a tank. The training went from once a week to twice a week, from every day to several times a day,” said Amit Yerushalmi. “We saw patrols along the border, people with cameras and binoculars. It happened 300 meters from the fence. There were a lot of disturbances, people went down to the fence and detonated an outrageous amount of explosives, the amount of explosives was crazy.” 

Warnings About Alarming Pre-Oct 7 Hamas Activity Ignored, Say Israeli Surveillance Soldiers

SATURDAY, OCT 28, 2023 - 08:40 PM

The Oct 7 Hamas military and terrorist attacks on Israel came as shock to many -- but not to surveillance soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) who say their warnings about their alarming observations along the Gaza border were ignored by higher-ups. 

In interviews with Israeli media, soldiers of the IDF's Combat Intelligence Corps say that, for at least three months before the attacks, they observed Hamas members conducting paramilitary training along the fenceline, digging holes, studying the area with maps, examining the ground surface and even placing and detonating explosives. 
Speaking to Kan News on Wedneday, Yael Rotenberg and Maya Desiatnik expressed their anger over the IDF's failure to heed their repeated reports of the ominous activity. Compounding their rage, the two were the only Combat Intelligence Corps soldiers who survived the Hamas attack on their base near the Nahal Oz kibbutz, less than a half-mile southeast of the Gaza border.  

Yael Rotenberg is one of four Israeli intelligence soldiers blowing the whistle on the IDF's failure to heed their warnings (Kan TV via Times of Israel)

###

“It’s infuriating. We saw what was happening, we told them about it, and we were the ones who were murdered,” said Desiatnik.

The types of activity they observed at the border was concerning enough, but, even more strikingly, the pace had steadily intensified as Oct 7 approached.

Desiatnik said it proceeded from weekly, to daily, to almost nonstop. In addition to her general visual observations, she said she was able to obtain information about the substance of the training, which encompassed driving tanks to bypassing the fence via tunnels.

She told Kan News that she'd concluded "it was just a matter of time" until Hamas unleashed an attack on Israel. 

Two other IDF intelligence soldiers shared similar experiences with Israel's Channel 12.

Yerushalmi said she dutifully recorded all her observations, with no apparent impact on the command whatsoever. 

These four IDF soldiers aren't the only ones who say their warnings were ignored. Egyptian intelligence officials say they also attempted to alert Tel Aviv. 

“We have warned them an explosion of the situation is coming, and very soon, and it would be big. But they underestimated such warnings,” an anonymous Egyptian official told the Associated Press. 

According to report by Israel's Ynet, Egypt's intelligence minister personally phoned Israeli Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu just 10 days before the attack, warning that Hamas was poised to do “something unusual, a terrible operation.” 

Ever since the political, militant and terror group's founding in the late 1970s, right-wing Israeli officials have fostered the rise of Hamas to ensure there is no viable "partner for peace" on the Palestinian side --- allowing Israel to forever postpone making territorial concessions while further settling the West Bank and paying diplomatic lip service to a two-state solution.  

To an extent unprecedented in Israel's history, the current Netanyahu government is dominated by ultra-nationalists and religious extremists representing parties such as "Religious Zionism" and "Jewish Power." In the wake of the Oct 7 atrocities, they won't have to worry about a negotiated peace with the Palestinians anytime soon.

"Blood be upon us & our children" was said by the Jewish people in response to Pilot.  While most people assumed the Jews cursed themselves, remember that sinners are saved by the blood of Jesus.  Perhaps this is not a curse, but instead, the saving blood of Jesus for their sins.

Amir Tsarfati complains against, and cautions shortsighted and self-righteous Christian evangelists who are working in this grief stricken Israel of today


Jews of today, like those of Jesus' time, are hard hearted & blind, as God's cursed and willed to occur.  Have compassion and longsuffering patience for their chronic affliction.

They will eventually come around and discover their Messiah in God's perfect timing.

[Luk 9:52–56 KJV] "52 And sent messengers before His face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for Him. 53 And they did not receive Him, because His face was as though He would go to Jerusalem. 54 And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, 'Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?' 55 But He turned, and rebuked them, and said, 'Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. 56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them.' And they went to another village."

Rejection of the Gospel doesn't warrant judgment of hell fire from heaven, nor anything similar, at this time.

See this as a loving parent waiting patiently for their enfant to take their first few steps, to begin to walk for the first time.

No refugees to Jordon.  Why does the Arab wotld reject Palestinians?


###
"The deleted statement which generated the outrage, having been briefly posted to X, said: "Under no circumstances and at no stage was Prime Minister Netanyahu warned of war intentions on the part of Hamas." It continued, "On the contrary, the assessment of the entire security echelon, including the head of military intelligence and the head of Shin Bet, was that Hamas was deterred and was seeking an arrangement."

"But in the new ABC remarks he didn't delve into much detail on this question of taking responsibility for severe failures which left the door open to the single deadliest terror attack in Israel's history. Netanyahu's political opponents have accused him of using the crisis to solidify power using the guise of the wartime emergency government."

If you are convinced by one or more of the above, you need to immediately act on your decision, before you get distracted by something else.

Time is short.  On average, 150,000 people die every 24 hr period, most of them are surprised that their last day has arrived.  If you die in your sins, you have a guaranteed reservation for eternity in the Lake of Fire (ie. Hell), where you will suffer torment, and burn for ever & ever.  Ouch!

The purpose of this post is to help ensure that doesn't happen to you, nor anybody else.

To avoid this fate worse than death, follow God's instructions, summarized in the following document God's 26 Commandments for Christians.

Why Christianity?

Christians are accused of arrogance, judgemental attitudes, and exaggeration when we insist that Christianity and Jesus Christ is fully sufficient in of itself, and exclusively the only true religion.

Nobody needs anything more than Jesus Christ.

For example, a convicted thief met Jesus Christ while they were beside each other; each on their own cross of crucifixion.  There was no time for baptism, prayers, communion, nor any other religious dogma.  The thief accepted that Jesus was the Son of God, and asked Jesus to remember him when Jesus reached Heaven.  Jesus assured the thief that he would be with Jesus in Heaven.  Simple as that.

Christianity is exclusive.  That means that only Christianity offers a guaranteed entrance into Heaven for all those who truly believe in Jesus.  Of course, true believer follow God's Laws, and Jesus' teachings, and do not chronically practice sin.

Jesus performed miracles so that people would recognize Him as God.  The Bible describes 37 miracles, and states in John 21:25 that many more were done, beyond these 37 miracles.

There are 44 prophecies in the Old Testament which predicted and described the life of Jesus Christ (see Bible37Miracles44PropheciesOfJesusChrist ).  These prophecies were made during a period from 4,000 BC to 150 BC.  These Old Testament prophecies are supported by the historical writings by Prophets, first and second hand witnesses of the life of Jesus Christ (Jesus' Apostles, Disciples, and others), as well as Roman, Greek, Jewish, and other historians who were alive at that time.

By all of this evidence, it is reasonable to conclude all of the objective evidence points to Jesus Christ being a real, historical person who did numerous miracles, claimed to be God, convinced thousands of people that He was God, lived a righteous life, made numerous prophecies that all came true, was falsely convicted, crucified, died, was buried, and ascended to Heaven 3 days after His death.

To conclude anything else is to ignore the strong, irrefutable objective facts that we have in our possession today.

If someone performs miracles and rises from the dead, I have made a personal policy decision to believe them when they claim to be God.  I suggest you do likewise.

Other World Religions

Muslims are required to do continual prayers and good works.  Islam claims that Allah takes note of all events in a person's life, assigning weights (good or bad) to every event, then Allah decides if a person has done sufficient good works to warrant heaven.  You never know, until it's too late, how Allah will decide your case.

Hindu claims reincarnation, but who decides if you get to move up or down; worm, dog, bird, human, or something else.  In the end, you can cycle around and around forever, never exiting from the reincarnation cycle.

Atheism is a belief in the empty null set, that no God exists; one shot through life, then nothing.  Agnostics aren't sure about God, and can continuously raise another doubt to procrastinate their final decision about God still longer.  Either way, they get to do as they please with no absolute limits on their thoughts, words, or deeds; except as they choose to self-impose.

We have discussed 3 major religions, there are 4 more to consider for a total of 7 major world religions.

No other world religion offers what Christianity offers.

Some religions make spurious, non-verifiable claims.  Only Christianity has the Bible to support and verify all claims made.

If it sounds too good to be true, it likely is untrue.  Buyer beware of non-Christian religions!

Comparison Shopping

With the power of the Internet, people can easily do comparison shopping.  You can more easily find the product, style, colour, features, price, and other characteristics that you seek without leaving home.  While you may compare Walmart vs. Amazon, is it OK to compare all the world religions before choosing one?

I am not sure if it's a sin to compare all the different religions before choosing one specific religion to follow.  However Christianity is not a smorgasbord, where you can pick or choose what goes on your plate, for your own customized version of Christianity.

If you try to pick and choose the aspects of Christianity you like, and reject the parts you don't like, then you are creating your own false god; not the God of the Bible. A "cult" is defined as a religion that does not accept all Biblical doctrine, or adds additional doctrines to the Bible.

Mormons claim they believe in Jesus Christ, but the Mormon Jesus, as described in the Book of Mormon and other Mormon doctrine is not the same Jesus as described in the Bible.

Muslims claim to believe in the Prophet Jesus Christ.  However the Jesus described in the Qu'ran is not the same as the Jesus described in the Bible.  Allah is not the same as God of the Bible.

Worshiping a non-Bible Jesus is blasphamy.  Creating your own custom designed god is also blasphemy, and contrary to the 2nd Commandment (see Exodus 20:3):

Thou shalt have no other gods before Me [God].

True Christians believe in:
  • the Jesus Christ described in the Bible
  • the teachings of Jesus Christ described in the Bible, and
  • the Commandments of God as described in the Bible (see the 20 Commandments for Christians).
Full stop, no additions, no deletions.  The New Testament describes all of this.  If you're missing one of more of these,  you are not a True Christian; you're a mirage, a make-believe Christian, a false Christian, an imposter.

Fake Christians

Jesus can see all of your heart, mind, body, soul, and spirit.  Jesus knows if you are a True Christian, or a fake.  In Matthew 7:20-23, Jesus Christ said:
"Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, 'Lord, Lord', shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in Heaven.  Many will say to me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?'  
And then will I profess unto them, 'I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.'  "
Iniquity is unrepented, chronic sin.  Iniquity is deadly.  Iniquity annuls your status of "Born Again".  Those who practice iniquity will be thrown into the Lake of Fire, to be burned and tormented for ever and ever.

Contrasting with the above, when True Christians reach Heaven, True Christians will hear Jesus Christ say something similar to Matthew 25:23:
 "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord."

Buying The Whole, Indivisible Jesus Christ

Jesus believed, quoted from, and included the Old Testament in His teachings.  In Matthew 5:17-18, Jesus said:
 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.  For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
If you profess that you believe in Jesus, and Jesus is described by the New Testament, and in the New Testament, Jesus supported and included the Old Testaments, then we conclude that believing in Jesus requires believe in both the Old Testament and the New Testament.  Therefore true Christians believe in the whole Bible.

If a sect, denomination, Pastor, Priest, or Minister adds or subtracts or denies all or part of the Bible, then they are not true Christians.

Properly Interpreting the Christian Bible

The Bible is an essential part of Christianity.  Therefore properly interpreting the Bible is essential.

However, everyone must regard the speaker, the intended audience, and proper context of the Bible, so as to rightly divide the Word as 2 Timothy 2:15 says:

"Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."

We don't impose definitions upon the Bible, we let the Bible define itself.  We don't propose interpretations in one verse that conflict with other verses.  We seek two or three witnesses to consistently agree so as to settle Biblical doctrine.

Biblical word study and doctrine takes hard work, patience, logic, and in depth study to apprehend the infinite nature of God in our insufficient mortal minds.

God will reveal the important aspects, while the finer points may remain mysteries.

While we can apprehend the essentials about God, we won't be able to fully comprehend God.  That's where faith comes in.

Act Now While You Still Can

There isn't much time left, as the Great Tribulation will soon begin (sometime between now & Nov. 1, 2019 ???).

Every second, approximately 2 people die somewhere on Earth (approximately 164,000 people per day).  Their sudden, unexpected death is likely a shock to the ones affected.

Once you die, it's too late to accept Jesus as your Saviour.  Procrastination is fatal to the infinite power of eternity.  A big mistake!

If you aren't Born Again before you die, you are guaranteed a 1-way ticket to Hell.

I don't want you to go to Hell.  I am a good and faithful Watchman, who wants to warn you of the danger so I don't have your blood on my hands.  If you don't heed the Watchman's warning, your blood will be on your own hands.

Come to Jesus.  Come today.  Come now, before it's too late.

Here is Ravi Zacharia speaking at the Mormon Temple about the sufficiency and exclucivity of Jesus Christ and Christianity (55 minutes):

  1. Redemption. then
  2. Righteousness, then
  3. Worship

Mystery Babylon, AntiChrist, & False Prophet are Identified

There is much confusion and speculation about the identity of the beasts, AntiChrist, False Prophet, and Mystery Babylon in the Book of Revelation.

Here is a video which discusses the various candidates and interpretations through the ages, and proposes what seems to be one set of reasonable possibilities for the true identities.



There is no doubt that New York, Rome, the EU, United Nations, and all the rest have sufficient evil therein to somewhat justify them as Mystery Babylon candidates.

However, based on this video, Mecca now seems like a prime candidate.

I am no Bible scholar.  Do you know any 2 or 3 Bible verses which are contradicted if Mecca is defined as Mystery Babylon?  If so, please leave your comments below.

The Muslims would not likely accept a Jew, Christian, European, or American as the AntiChrist.  However, if the AntiChrist is from the Middle East, and the False Prophet is from Europe or America, all sides could feel somewhat comfortable with the Devil's New World Order.

Turkey, as the Kingdom of the North, and the seat of Satan can help orchestrate the End Times government system.  The Turkish Mahdi can establish his caliphate for Turkey, then the rest of the Muslim world.  Soon after this, he can expand his role as the AntiChrist ruler for the entire world. 

The False Prophet would be the Roman Catholic Pope.  After the Pope kicks Jesus Christ to the curb (ie. deny Jesus as the Son of God, and demote Him to Isa, mere prophet) and substitute Mariology for Christ, the Muslims will readily accept both Isa as Prophet and Mary.

The destruction of Mecca as Mystery Babylon could be done by Iran and other Shia Muslims as punishment against their hated Sunni Muslim neighbours (Saudi Arabia is Sunni, Iran is Shia).

It seems to all make sense.
