00:33.870 --> 00:39.050
The subject we are going to be looking
into in this lecture is, who is the

00:39.050 --> 00:39.790
Antichrist?

00:41.570 --> 00:46.230
It's a very heavy subject, but it's a very
important subject.

00:47.350 --> 00:52.770
And I start this lecture off by saying
something or reading something,

00:52.870 --> 00:56.270
and I'd like you to look at this graphic
and study with me what it says.

00:57.150 --> 00:58.170
Heavy on the heart.

00:59.810 --> 01:02.250
Truth is independent of opinion.

01:03.110 --> 01:06.530
By its very definition, truth is
intolerant of error.

01:07.490 --> 01:11.050
Every aspect petitioning the conscience
for acknowledgement.

01:11.910 --> 01:16.250
The individual, however, holds the key to
admission or rejection.

01:18.050 --> 01:24.590
This slide, this image that you've just
seen, sums up many of the lectures that

01:24.590 --> 01:26.090
are coming up, including this one.

01:26.910 --> 01:31.930
The subject is heavy on the heart,
but truth is intolerant of error.

01:32.130 --> 01:35.250
And it's also intolerant of your or my
opinion.

01:36.030 --> 01:39.050
It doesn't matter what you think,
and it doesn't matter what I think.

01:39.530 --> 01:42.490
What the Bible says is truth.

01:44.490 --> 01:51.310
However, the individual, and that's you
and me, hold the key to either accept or

01:51.310 --> 01:52.590
to reject this information.

01:53.530 --> 01:56.270
We're going to be looking into who's the
Antichrist.

01:56.790 --> 01:59.390
And I'd like to start off with a couple of
opening comments.

02:00.090 --> 02:05.610
You see, the Bible describes and discusses
both Christ and Antichrist.

02:06.790 --> 02:11.630
And because these two forces are the
forces that will battle it out to the end,

02:12.250 --> 02:17.190
we have to look at how the Antichrist is
going to play a role in the end time.

02:17.730 --> 02:22.230
If we don't understand the interaction or
the role of the Antichrist, we cannot

02:22.230 --> 02:28.070
understand how deception can filter into
the system of worship in order to twist

02:28.070 --> 02:30.970
people into things that they think they're
doing right, but they're actually doing

02:30.970 --> 02:31.250
wrong.

02:31.690 --> 02:37.010
It is critical that we identify him,
and not only that we point out who he is,

02:37.290 --> 02:38.410
but that we watch him.

02:38.690 --> 02:43.650
We keep an eye on what he's doing so that
we can see how prophecy is being fulfilled

02:43.650 --> 02:44.210
in the Bible.

02:45.090 --> 02:50.070
Some people, when they think about the
Antichrist, they say, oh no, it's Osama

02:50.070 --> 02:50.650
Bin Laden.

02:51.710 --> 02:53.230
Others say it's George Bush.

02:53.790 --> 02:56.410
Others say it's Tony Blair.

02:57.650 --> 03:01.630
But Tony Blair has just stepped down,
so it couldn't really be him.

03:01.890 --> 03:08.570
See, the problem with this is only the
Bible mentions the Antichrist in such

03:08.570 --> 03:15.270
detail, and therefore only the Bible in
such detail can be used to identify him.

03:18.180 --> 03:25.180
We have to be looking at 21 biblical
characteristics on how to identify the

03:25.180 --> 03:25.800
Antichrist.

03:26.180 --> 03:28.600
These have been written in a prophetic
manner.

03:29.400 --> 03:35.020
So just as we did in the previous
lectures, we have to read 2 Peter 1 verse

03:35.020 --> 03:35.380
20.

03:35.520 --> 03:42.360
It says, knowing this first, that no
prophecy of scripture is of any private

03:42.360 --> 03:43.240
interpretation.

03:43.880 --> 03:48.500
For this reason, only the Bible can tell
us who the Bible is speaking about.

03:49.200 --> 03:51.420
Let's look at the Antichrist prophecy.

03:54.390 --> 04:00.450
Webster's Dictionary tells us that the
word anti actually means ante,

04:00.850 --> 04:04.330
which is A-N-T-E, which means in the place
of.

04:05.490 --> 04:12.670
So clinically speaking, Antichrist would
mean somebody that comes in the place of

04:12.670 --> 04:13.190
Christ.

04:13.250 --> 04:17.810
We generally think that Antichrist is the
person that's going to be opposed to

04:17.810 --> 04:18.410
Christ.

04:18.910 --> 04:24.970
But again, that is today's thinking
superimposed over a biblical prophecy.

04:27.010 --> 04:31.370
A hundred years ago, nobody would have
understood that the Antichrist could be

04:31.370 --> 04:32.970
George Bush because he didn't exist.

04:34.030 --> 04:38.710
We also wouldn't have thought 30 years ago
about the risk of Osama Bin Laden or the

04:38.710 --> 04:42.050
fear of him being the Antichrist because
his threat didn't exist.

04:42.870 --> 04:47.590
But yet, something written almost 2,000
years ago has to have the same meaning as

04:47.590 --> 04:50.570
what it does today when we speak about the
Antichrist.

04:51.510 --> 04:58.270
Antichrist means in the place of Christ in
75% of language cases.

04:59.450 --> 05:03.530
Let's pop back to Isaiah 14 verses 12 to
14.

05:03.690 --> 05:04.750
Read with me what it says.

05:05.710 --> 05:09.570
How art thou fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning?

05:09.830 --> 05:14.810
For thou hast said in thy heart,
I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my

05:14.810 --> 05:18.190
throne above the stars of God,
I will sit upon the mount of the

05:18.190 --> 05:22.570
congregation in the sides of the north,
I will ascend above the heights of the

05:22.570 --> 05:25.210
clouds, I will be like the Most High.

05:26.710 --> 05:32.590
This is a description of what took place
as to why Lucifer was thrown out of

05:32.590 --> 05:32.790
heaven.

05:33.910 --> 05:36.330
Satan's name when he was in heaven wasn't
Satan.

05:36.750 --> 05:39.850
He became Satan in heaven like Gabriel.

05:40.450 --> 05:41.970
His name was Lucifer.

05:42.570 --> 05:45.690
Lucifer meaning the light bearer.

05:46.230 --> 05:48.750
Lucifer had a war in heaven.

05:49.150 --> 05:50.670
It was Lucifer vs.

05:50.930 --> 05:54.370
Michael who we identify in many cases as
God.

05:55.170 --> 05:56.270
Lucifer vs.

05:56.430 --> 05:56.610
God.

05:56.750 --> 06:00.850
Lucifer fell out of heaven because he
said, I will ascend into heaven,

06:01.330 --> 06:06.650
I will exalt myself above the throne,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of

06:06.650 --> 06:10.370
God, I will sit upon the mount of the
congregation in the sides of the north,

06:10.630 --> 06:15.250
and then he says, I will ascend above the
heights of the clouds, I will be like the

06:15.250 --> 06:15.870
Most High.

06:16.490 --> 06:17.770
You see, he wanted to be God.

06:18.770 --> 06:20.410
He wanted to be God.

06:20.590 --> 06:22.670
But we know that that job is already
taken.

06:24.050 --> 06:31.210
So if Satan or Lucifer at the time cannot
be God, then he has got to do what he can

06:31.210 --> 06:33.650
to try and be God where he is now.

06:34.350 --> 06:40.750
So Satan in his war against God wants to
be God, and he will do whatever he can to

06:40.750 --> 06:42.370
be in the place of God.

06:43.490 --> 06:48.650
Matthew 24 verses 4 and 5 read as follows,
Jesus answered and said unto them,

06:48.810 --> 06:52.690
Take heed that no man deceive you,
for many shall come in my name,

06:52.810 --> 06:55.430
saying, I am Christ, and shall deceive
many.

06:55.710 --> 06:59.850
See, this is where Christ is pointing out
that there will be a force of

06:59.850 --> 07:05.190
impersonating Christ or coming in the
position of Christ that will be used to

07:05.190 --> 07:06.630
deceive people.

07:06.970 --> 07:09.930
Now Satan can't get all of us willingly to
bow down to him.

07:10.110 --> 07:13.710
If there were a cloven-footed gargoyle
that would walk into your sitting room

07:13.710 --> 07:19.230
today, with a tail and a pitchfork and
blowing smoke, you wouldn't bow down to

07:19.230 --> 07:19.910
him and worship him.

07:20.550 --> 07:22.170
He can't come to you like that.

07:22.490 --> 07:24.730
He has to come in a form of disguise.

07:24.970 --> 07:29.970
A form that will make you feel comfortable
with bowing down to something that looks

07:29.970 --> 07:35.210
right, that feels right, that sounds like
it, smells right, but yet, it's going to

07:35.210 --> 07:35.610
be wrong.

07:37.670 --> 07:42.030
We look at the dictionary of prophetic
terms in prophecy, a day equals a year.

07:43.410 --> 07:45.710
The Bible is full of these type of
examples.

07:45.890 --> 07:52.550
We look at white robes, which according to
many examples in the Bible is equal to

07:52.550 --> 07:54.090
righteousness or victory.

07:54.530 --> 07:57.570
The trumpet was a loud warning of God's
approach.

07:58.030 --> 08:02.970
Prostitution is a representation of
idolatry, spiritual adultery.

08:03.730 --> 08:07.970
Seas and waters, as we saw, were nations
and tongues and peoples.

08:08.690 --> 08:13.910
A beast was a kingdom, a government power,
a political power, a king, etc.

08:14.070 --> 08:14.330
etc.

08:15.170 --> 08:18.030
Let's pop back to Daniel 7 verse 1 and
read there.

08:18.070 --> 08:22.070
In the first year of Belshazzar,
king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream and

08:22.070 --> 08:23.810
visions of his head upon his bed.

08:24.210 --> 08:27.170
And then he wrote the dream and told the
sum of the matters.

08:27.350 --> 08:32.830
He says, I saw in my vision by night,
and behold, the four winds of the heavens

08:32.830 --> 08:38.690
strove upon the great sea, and four great
beasts came up from the sea, diverse one

08:38.690 --> 08:39.210
from another.

08:40.210 --> 08:44.770
Now, I can't tell you what the word winds
means.

08:44.990 --> 08:49.390
I can't tell you what the word seas mean,
and I can't tell you what the word beasts

08:49.390 --> 08:49.610
mean.

08:49.710 --> 08:52.450
Therefore, we have to go to the Bible and
say, please, could you help us?

08:53.050 --> 08:58.490
Let's look at Jeremiah 49 verses 36 to 37
to find out what winds are.

08:59.450 --> 09:03.710
And upon Elam will I bring the four winds
of the four quarters of heaven and will

09:03.710 --> 09:05.770
scatter them towards all of those winds.

09:06.090 --> 09:09.590
And there shall be no nation whither the
outcast of Elam shall not come.

09:10.230 --> 09:14.950
For I will cause Elam to be dismayed
before their enemies, and before them that

09:14.950 --> 09:15.670
seek their life.

09:15.890 --> 09:19.970
I will bring evil upon them, even my
fierce anger, saith the Lord, and I will

09:19.970 --> 09:22.490
send a sword after them till I have
consumed them.

09:23.450 --> 09:28.010
This passage is an example of what's known
as Hebrew parallelism.

09:28.470 --> 09:33.630
It's written in this way, and then it's
repeated in that way, so that the reader

09:33.630 --> 09:36.430
can make sure that they understand what is
being explained.

09:37.310 --> 09:42.010
Here, the first way around it says,
upon Elam will I bring the four winds.

09:42.570 --> 09:46.290
It's then repeated in a different way,
it says, for I will cause Elam to be

09:46.290 --> 09:47.950
dismayed before their enemies.

09:48.750 --> 09:55.430
So, winds depicts destruction,
or war, or some sort of conflict.

09:57.050 --> 09:58.330
What about beasts?

09:58.810 --> 10:00.170
How do we know what a beast is?

10:00.910 --> 10:03.490
Daniel 7, 17 and 23 explains.

10:03.970 --> 10:08.850
Those great beasts which are four,
are four kings which shall arise out of

10:08.850 --> 10:09.190
the earth.

10:09.530 --> 10:13.930
Thus he said, the fourth beast shall be
the fourth kingdom upon the earth,

10:13.990 --> 10:15.750
which shall be diverse from all the
kingdoms.

10:16.210 --> 10:20.870
So, we can identify that a kingdom is a
beast, and a beast is a kingdom,

10:21.070 --> 10:23.090
only when speaking prophetic language.

10:24.230 --> 10:25.050
What about seas?

10:25.710 --> 10:31.330
Well, Revelation 17, 15 says, And he said
unto me, The waters which thou sawest,

10:31.390 --> 10:35.830
where the horse sitteth, are peoples,
and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

10:36.890 --> 10:38.790
There we have a perfect example of seas.

10:39.030 --> 10:43.810
The waters, the lots of waters that refers
to peoples and tongues.

10:43.830 --> 10:49.010
So, we are starting to see, seas equals
people, wind equals war, beasts equals

10:49.010 --> 10:49.390
kingdoms.

10:49.730 --> 10:52.450
That is the Bible telling us what the
Bible means.

10:52.930 --> 10:56.770
There is no influence, no human influence,
external influence of any sort.

10:57.690 --> 11:03.930
So, Daniel 7, 2-3 says, I saw in my vision
by night, and behold, the four winds of

11:03.930 --> 11:07.450
heaven strove upon the great sea,
and the four great beasts came up from the

11:07.450 --> 11:08.750
sea, diverse from one another.

11:09.630 --> 11:12.050
The first was like a lion, and had eagle's
wings.

11:12.150 --> 11:13.370
Remember, we have discussed this.

11:13.990 --> 11:17.650
I beheld, till the wings thereof were
plucked, and it was lifted up from the

11:17.650 --> 11:22.690
earth, and made stand upon the feet as a
man, and a man's heart was given to it.

11:23.870 --> 11:29.090
This represented, can you remember,
the golden head, the lion with eagle's

11:29.090 --> 11:30.530
wings, was Babylon.

11:31.670 --> 11:36.230
Daniel 7, 5 continues, it says,
And behold, another beast, the second one

11:36.230 --> 11:40.090
like a bear, it was raised up on the one
side, it had three ribs in its mouth

11:40.090 --> 11:43.650
between its teeth, and it was told,
Arise, devour much flesh.

11:43.710 --> 11:44.910
Can you remember who this was?

11:45.910 --> 11:47.370
Medo-Persia, that's correct.

11:48.030 --> 11:52.370
Daniel 7, 6, And this I beheld,
and lo, another like a leopard,

11:52.590 --> 11:55.090
which had upon the back of it four wings
of a fowl.

11:55.130 --> 11:58.470
The beast had also four heads,
and dominion was given to it.

11:58.850 --> 11:59.810
Remember who this was?

12:00.630 --> 12:04.370
Alexander the Great, Greece, and then
Daniel 7, 7.

12:04.670 --> 12:05.670
Concentrate with me now.

12:06.590 --> 12:12.190
After this I saw in the night visions,
and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and

12:12.190 --> 12:15.510
terrible, and strong exceedingly,
and it had great iron teeth.

12:15.570 --> 12:17.450
Remember, iron was a representation of
Rome.

12:17.970 --> 12:21.530
It devoured and broke in pieces,
and stamped the residue with the feet of

12:21.530 --> 12:26.930
it, and it was diverse from all the beasts
that were before it, and it had ten horns.

12:27.830 --> 12:32.070
The next verse says, I considered the
horns, and behold, there came up among

12:32.070 --> 12:34.550
them another horn, a little one.

12:34.850 --> 12:37.790
Do you remember a horn was a king?

12:38.690 --> 12:42.910
So here were ten kings, and among them
came up another king.

12:43.650 --> 12:48.370
Before which three of the first horns were
plucked up by the roots, and behold,

12:48.610 --> 12:53.390
in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a
man, and a mouth speaking great things.

12:54.790 --> 12:58.250
This little horn is the Antichrist power.

12:58.830 --> 13:04.470
The Bible gives us information about this
horn, this little king, or this little

13:04.470 --> 13:08.370
kingdom, that it doesn't describe in such
depth in any other form.

13:09.510 --> 13:16.050
Daniel 7 verses 19 and 23 read as follows,
Then I would know the truth of the fourth

13:16.050 --> 13:20.530
beast, which was diverse from all the
others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth

13:20.530 --> 13:24.550
were of iron, and his nails of brass,
which devoured, broke in pieces,

13:24.650 --> 13:26.410
and stamped the residue with his feet.

13:27.350 --> 13:30.350
Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be
the fourth kingdom upon earth,

13:30.490 --> 13:36.130
which shall be diverse, different from all
the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole

13:36.130 --> 13:39.190
earth, and shall tread it down,
and break it in pieces.

13:39.910 --> 13:45.710
Daniel 7 verse 24 And the ten horns out of
this kingdom are ten kings that shall

13:45.710 --> 13:50.230
arise, and another shall arise after them,
and he shall be diverse from the first,

13:50.310 --> 13:52.690
and he shall subdue three kings.

13:53.590 --> 14:00.390
Daniel 7 verse 22 Until the Ancient of
Days came, and judgment was given to the

14:00.390 --> 14:04.230
saints of the Most High, and the time came
that the saints possessed the kingdom.

14:04.930 --> 14:09.730
Now the Bible goes into various
descriptions about this little power,

14:10.070 --> 14:14.990
this Antichrist beast, this force that's
going to stomp and break in pieces and

14:14.990 --> 14:16.330
will control the whole earth.

14:17.150 --> 14:23.190
I would like to go into 21 Biblical
examples of these, identifying

14:23.190 --> 14:25.390
characteristics that the Bible gives us.

14:26.030 --> 14:31.270
And we are going to say, Who is the power
in the world that might fit all of these

14:31.270 --> 14:31.710
examples?

14:31.830 --> 14:32.730
Let's have a look at it.

14:32.870 --> 14:37.850
The first characteristic is that the
power, this Antichrist power, was already

14:37.850 --> 14:39.070
working in Paul's day.

14:40.490 --> 14:42.870
Was Osama Bin Laden working in Paul's day?

14:43.670 --> 14:45.750
Was George Bush working in Paul's day?

14:46.890 --> 14:48.870
Did America exist in Paul's day?

14:49.810 --> 14:53.090
You see, just by this first
characteristic, this first example,

14:53.570 --> 14:59.490
already 90% of those so-called Antichrist
powers that we have decided are the

14:59.490 --> 15:01.670
Antichrist in our own mind are removed.

15:02.650 --> 15:08.450
2 Thessalonians 2 verses 7-10 explain,
For the mystery of iniquity doth already

15:08.450 --> 15:12.750
work, and then shall that wicked be
revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with

15:12.750 --> 15:16.470
the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy
with the brightness of his coming,

15:16.870 --> 15:22.730
even him whose coming is after the working
of Satan, with all power and signs and

15:22.730 --> 15:23.430
lying wonders.

15:25.090 --> 15:27.550
Here Paul is writing about the same power.

15:27.830 --> 15:31.170
He is writing about the power that is
already working at his time.

15:31.610 --> 15:36.230
That time will run through, according to
what we have just read, until the Ancient

15:36.230 --> 15:37.790
of Days has come.

15:38.250 --> 15:41.670
So from Paul's time, right through until
the Lord comes again.

15:41.790 --> 15:42.910
We will look into that just now.

15:43.950 --> 15:45.030
Characteristic number 2.

15:45.390 --> 15:48.090
He arises out of the fourth beast.

15:48.330 --> 15:48.970
Read with me.

15:49.270 --> 15:50.770
Daniel 7 verses 7-8.

15:51.210 --> 15:55.610
After this I saw a fourth beast,
terrible and powerful and strong

15:55.610 --> 15:57.250
exceedingly, and it had ten horns.

15:58.050 --> 16:02.550
And I considered the horns, and behold,
there came up among them a little one,

16:02.890 --> 16:05.770
before which three of the first horns were
plucked up by the roots.

16:06.410 --> 16:08.690
So where does this horn come from?

16:09.050 --> 16:12.010
It comes out of the fourth beast.

16:12.150 --> 16:15.190
There are four beasts and it has to come
out of the fourth beast.

16:16.950 --> 16:17.990
Characteristic number 3.

16:18.530 --> 16:21.550
It arises in between the ten horns.

16:22.050 --> 16:24.750
What you will notice is that it is very
specific.

16:24.910 --> 16:27.750
The Bible is so specific about identifying
who this is.

16:27.990 --> 16:28.750
Read this with me.

16:29.190 --> 16:30.630
Daniel 7 verses 7.

16:30.890 --> 16:34.370
And I saw this, a fourth beast,
terrible and powerful and strong

16:34.370 --> 16:36.190
exceedingly, and it had ten horns.

16:36.850 --> 16:42.250
I considered the horns, and behold,
there came up among them another horn,

16:42.350 --> 16:43.090
a little one.

16:43.810 --> 16:45.130
So where does it come up?

16:45.970 --> 16:48.990
Among or in between the other ten.

16:49.870 --> 16:54.790
So all we have to do is look at the
various kingdoms at the time and then we

16:54.790 --> 16:59.010
have to see, well, where does this
Antichrist power have to come up?

16:59.010 --> 17:00.770
We will look at that in the second half.

17:02.490 --> 17:03.650
Characteristic number 4.

17:04.390 --> 17:09.210
It arises after all other ten kings are
already there.

17:09.990 --> 17:11.950
Daniel 7 verses 24 explains this.

17:12.110 --> 17:17.770
It says, And as for the ten horns,
out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise,

17:17.970 --> 17:19.570
and another shall arise, how?

17:20.350 --> 17:21.310
After them.

17:21.530 --> 17:24.990
And he shall be diverse from the four men,
and he shall put down three kings.

17:25.770 --> 17:31.110
Here Daniel is making sure that with this
explanation he gets every single thing

17:31.110 --> 17:31.830
explained.

17:32.130 --> 17:33.310
Characteristic number 5.

17:33.970 --> 17:36.170
He works under the auspices of religion.

17:36.930 --> 17:41.110
Most people don't know this, they just
think of a fearful power opposed to

17:41.110 --> 17:42.930
Christ, the Antichrist.

17:43.010 --> 17:43.970
Well, that's not actually true.

17:44.570 --> 17:48.690
This is somebody that will have to work
under the auspices of religion and comes

17:48.690 --> 17:50.970
in the place of Jesus Christ.

17:51.750 --> 17:56.850
Daniel 7 verses 2 explains that it says,
And conquering the ten horns, that were on

17:56.850 --> 18:02.390
his head, the other horn which came up,
and before which three fell, even that

18:02.390 --> 18:08.270
horn had eyes and a mouth that spake great
things, whose look was more stout than his

18:08.270 --> 18:08.630
fellows.

18:09.110 --> 18:15.170
In the original translation, speaking
great things means that he was speaking

18:15.170 --> 18:16.870
great spiritual things.

18:17.030 --> 18:19.770
He was a spiritual leader of sorts.

18:20.190 --> 18:23.690
Matthew 24 verse 15 in the Old Testament
supports this.

18:23.990 --> 18:29.170
And he says, When therefore ye see the
abomination of desolation, which was

18:29.170 --> 18:33.490
spoken of through Daniel, so Matthew here
is pointing back to Daniel.

18:33.970 --> 18:35.090
So let's read that again.

18:35.450 --> 18:39.470
When therefore ye see the abomination of
desolation, that's this Antichrist,

18:39.690 --> 18:44.650
which was spoken of through Daniel the
prophet, standing in the holy place,

18:45.030 --> 18:46.430
let him that readeth understand.

18:47.470 --> 18:52.390
Here Matthew is saying this Antichrist
power, the abomination of desolation,

18:52.390 --> 18:54.750
is going to come up inside the temple of
God.

18:54.870 --> 18:57.030
He's going to come up working as a
religious power.

18:58.170 --> 19:02.550
Number six might come as a surprise,
because I specifically take time to

19:02.550 --> 19:05.750
identify that this is a human being.

19:06.190 --> 19:09.510
It has human-like characteristics or
qualities.

19:10.110 --> 19:11.130
Why is that important?

19:12.110 --> 19:15.950
Well, today there's an idea that the
Antichrist might be a computer in

19:15.950 --> 19:19.650
Brussels, some superhuman artificial
intelligence computer.

19:20.570 --> 19:21.810
That's not what the Bible says.

19:21.870 --> 19:23.750
The Bible says it has to be a human.

19:23.970 --> 19:30.270
Read with me Daniel 7, 8, 20 and
Revelation 13, 5 and verse 18.

19:30.410 --> 19:35.010
In this horn were eyes like the eyes of a
man, and a mouth speaking great things.

19:35.310 --> 19:36.390
Daniel 7, 20.

19:36.850 --> 19:39.570
Even that horn that had eyes and a mouth.

19:40.450 --> 19:42.090
Revelation 13, 5.

19:42.230 --> 19:44.650
And there was given to him a mouth
speaking great things.

19:45.150 --> 19:49.530
He that hath understanding in verse 18,
let him count the number of the beast,

19:49.730 --> 19:52.450
for it is the number of a man.

19:53.430 --> 19:59.290
This is a human being, a type of system
that is put in place by humanity.

19:59.710 --> 20:03.410
Interestingly enough though,
characteristic number seven says that

20:03.410 --> 20:04.650
he'll be diverse.

20:04.950 --> 20:06.870
He'll be different from all the others.

20:07.570 --> 20:12.970
Daniel 7, 24 says, As for the ten horns
out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise,

20:13.310 --> 20:15.370
and another shall arise after them.

20:15.490 --> 20:16.330
We've been through this.

20:16.610 --> 20:16.930
Now listen.

20:17.490 --> 20:22.010
And he shall be diverse from the former,
and he shall put down three kings.

20:22.670 --> 20:27.490
So this power is somehow going to be
different than all the other kingdoms that

20:27.490 --> 20:28.310
have gone before him.

20:28.850 --> 20:31.590
Number eight, he has to uproot three
kingdoms.

20:32.150 --> 20:33.710
We've just read it and I'll read it again.

20:34.190 --> 20:37.890
I considered the horns and behold there
came up among them another horn,

20:37.970 --> 20:42.970
a little one, before which three of the
first horns were plucked up by the roots.

20:43.890 --> 20:48.570
And Daniel 7, verse 20 says, Before which
three fell, and Daniel 7, 24 says,

20:48.770 --> 20:50.870
And he shall put down three kings.

20:51.210 --> 20:51.930
Very important.

20:52.450 --> 20:56.710
The rise of this power cannot be
misconstrued to be any other power,

20:57.030 --> 21:01.110
because all of these things have to take
place and he has to fulfill every single

21:01.110 --> 21:05.030
one of them, even taking out three of the
kings that stood before him.

21:06.230 --> 21:10.270
Number nine is this little horn,
this little power is going to be greater

21:10.270 --> 21:11.250
than the others.

21:11.350 --> 21:14.150
He's going to come up small, but he's
going to grow bigger than any others.

21:14.610 --> 21:20.130
Daniel 7, 20 says, And considering the ten
horns that were on its head, and the other

21:20.130 --> 21:25.190
horn which came up, and before which three
fell, even that horn that had eyes and a

21:25.190 --> 21:29.110
mouth that spoke great things,
whose look was more stout than its

21:29.110 --> 21:29.410
fellows.

21:30.210 --> 21:34.750
Somehow this horn will be stronger than
the previous kingdoms that stood in its

21:34.750 --> 21:35.090
place.

21:36.530 --> 21:38.890
Number ten, let's look at number ten.

21:39.710 --> 21:44.270
This kingdom or this power will make war
against the saints.

21:44.890 --> 21:50.150
This power is going to despise the
Christian people that believe in the Bible

21:50.150 --> 21:51.090
and the Bible alone.

21:51.750 --> 21:57.530
Daniel 7, 21 says the same thing,
it says, I beheld and the same horn made

21:57.530 --> 22:00.470
war with the saints and prevailed against
them.

22:02.130 --> 22:07.190
Number eleven, you see how close we are
getting now to identify who this is?

22:07.670 --> 22:09.530
Can it be George Bush anymore?

22:09.870 --> 22:10.170
No.

22:10.950 --> 22:12.030
Well, let's look at number eleven.

22:12.110 --> 22:16.010
Remember, we've still got to go to
twenty-one biblical... and no more,

22:16.250 --> 22:17.730
I'm just choosing twenty-one of them.

22:19.010 --> 22:23.070
Number eleven, this power will speak
against God.

22:23.870 --> 22:25.490
Read with me in Daniel 7, 25.

22:26.010 --> 22:30.630
And he shall speak words against the Most
High, and shall wear out the saints of the

22:30.630 --> 22:31.190
Most High.

22:31.950 --> 22:34.910
Characteristic number twelve is he speaks
blasphemies.

22:35.270 --> 22:36.770
He blasphemes God.

22:37.050 --> 22:41.890
In Revelation 13, 5 it says, And there was
given to him a mouth speaking great things

22:41.890 --> 22:42.990
and blasphemies.

22:43.350 --> 22:48.030
And verse six continues, And he opened his
mouth for blasphemies against God to

22:48.030 --> 22:49.290
blaspheme his name.

22:50.090 --> 22:50.570
Interesting.

22:51.410 --> 22:52.490
He blasphemes God.

22:52.750 --> 22:57.750
And then the next characteristic thirteen
is that he blasphemes God's tabernacle.

22:58.210 --> 23:02.010
Revelation 13, verse six says,
And he opened his mouth for blasphemies

23:02.010 --> 23:05.330
against God and to blaspheme his name and
his tabernacle.

23:06.270 --> 23:10.250
Not only that, number fourteen,
he blasphemes God's angels.

23:11.150 --> 23:14.850
It says in the same verse, And he opened
his mouth for blasphemies against God and

23:14.850 --> 23:20.110
to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle,
even them that dwell in heaven.

23:21.690 --> 23:26.890
This power will even think to change laws
and will think to change times.

23:27.130 --> 23:29.550
Let's split those up and put number
fifteen in.

23:29.790 --> 23:31.250
He will think to change times.

23:31.510 --> 23:33.350
Let's read this in Daniel 7, 25.

23:34.050 --> 23:38.410
And he shall speak words against the Most
High, and he shall wear out the saints of

23:38.410 --> 23:41.810
the Most High, and he shall think to
change times.

23:42.590 --> 23:45.210
Number sixteen, he will think to change
laws.

23:45.310 --> 23:47.750
The same verse we've just read,
Daniel 7, 25.

23:48.090 --> 23:51.710
And he will think to change the times and
the law.

23:52.330 --> 23:58.790
Number seventeen, this power will rule for
a period of 1,260 years.

23:59.630 --> 24:03.770
Remember, I just want to warn you again,
we've kept on saying this, 2 Peter 1,

24:03.810 --> 24:08.350
20 says, No prophecy of the scripture is
of any private interpretation.

24:08.870 --> 24:14.330
Well, this is the reason for 1,260 years
we need to make sure that this is right.

24:14.870 --> 24:17.630
Every day is a year when speaking
prophetically.

24:18.050 --> 24:25.330
Well, a prophetic scale of 1,260 years,
turning it backward would mean 1,260 days.

24:26.390 --> 24:31.050
Well, Revelation 11, verse 3 and 12,
verse 6 speak about this power reigning

24:31.050 --> 24:32.630
for 1,260 days.

24:34.030 --> 24:38.770
Revelation 11, verse 2 and 13,
verse 5 speak about this power reigning

24:38.770 --> 24:40.970
for 42 months.

24:41.810 --> 24:46.630
Daniel 7, verse 25 and 12, verse 7,
it speaks about this power reigning for

24:46.630 --> 24:48.410
three and a half years.

24:48.950 --> 24:54.470
Each one of these, 1,260 days,
42 months, or three and a half years are

24:54.470 --> 24:55.750
referring to the same period.

24:56.610 --> 24:58.230
Let's look at some of these examples.

24:58.370 --> 25:02.470
Revelation 11, 3, 1,203 score days.

25:02.830 --> 25:06.490
Revelation 12, 6, 1,203 score days.

25:06.670 --> 25:09.410
Revelation 11, 2, 40 and 2 months.

25:09.730 --> 25:11.850
13, verse 5, 40 and 2 months.

25:12.350 --> 25:17.170
7, verse 25, a time, a times and dividing
of time.

25:17.390 --> 25:19.010
That's three and a half years.

25:19.310 --> 25:23.490
Daniel 12, verse 7, a time, times and
half.

25:24.030 --> 25:29.630
And then Revelation 12, verse 14,
a time and times and a half a time.

25:29.810 --> 25:31.950
A time being a period of a year.

25:32.130 --> 25:37.910
Take one day for a year, it works out to
1,260 days.

25:38.950 --> 25:44.010
Now that's obviously, if you remember that
the Jewish calendar at the time was 30

25:44.010 --> 25:45.350
days for a month.

25:45.630 --> 25:52.750
So 42 months would be 42 times 30,
which comes to 1,260 years, or days,

25:53.010 --> 25:53.930
one day for a year.

25:54.510 --> 25:56.430
Do you think that this is an important
theme?

25:58.270 --> 26:03.450
The Bible reiterates this point over and
over and over and over.

26:03.530 --> 26:05.510
How long do you think George Bush has been
in power?

26:07.090 --> 26:10.650
How long has Osama Bin Laden been
threatening the world with whatever he's

26:10.650 --> 26:10.910
doing?

26:11.410 --> 26:13.130
1,260 years?

26:14.110 --> 26:14.450
No.

26:15.370 --> 26:17.570
So we've got to look at this in the
greater context.

26:18.070 --> 26:21.570
Excuse me Bible, please could you tell me
who this power is?

26:22.650 --> 26:29.050
That 1,260 years is again a way of the
Lord recapitulating his information and

26:29.050 --> 26:31.750
making sure that we understand it and that
we don't miss anything.

26:32.510 --> 26:38.290
Number 18, characteristic number 18,
this power goes into captivity.

26:38.790 --> 26:45.390
Revelation 13, 10 explains, if any man is
for captivity, into captivity he goeth.

26:45.890 --> 26:48.810
If any man shall kill with a sword,
with a sword he must be killed.

26:49.190 --> 26:51.350
Here is the patience and the faith of the
saints.

26:52.210 --> 26:56.710
Speaking about that power, he says that he
will have to go into captivity.

26:57.230 --> 27:02.310
Not only that, but characteristic number
19 says, with the sword he must be killed.

27:02.550 --> 27:05.410
That's the same verse, read it with me,
Revelation 13, 10.

27:05.750 --> 27:08.470
If you have your Bibles, pause the DVD.

27:09.070 --> 27:11.870
Take time to make sure that what I'm
saying is biblical.

27:12.510 --> 27:14.230
Don't just absorb what I'm saying.

27:14.650 --> 27:16.430
Check up on everything that I'm saying.

27:16.550 --> 27:19.010
It has to be biblical, otherwise it cannot
be the truth.

27:20.010 --> 27:21.370
Revelation 13, 10.

27:22.430 --> 27:25.510
If any man is for captivity, into
captivity he goeth.

27:25.530 --> 27:26.290
We've covered that.

27:26.510 --> 27:31.150
Now, if any man shall kill with a sword,
with a sword he must be killed.

27:32.170 --> 27:34.090
Here is the patience and the faith of the
saints.

27:34.930 --> 27:38.650
So this is an indication of that war with
the saints.

27:38.770 --> 27:42.790
He's going to make war with the saints and
in the same manner where he dislodged the

27:42.790 --> 27:47.110
saints from power, from removing them from
their circumstances, in the same way he

27:47.110 --> 27:47.910
will be removed.

27:48.650 --> 27:55.810
Number 20, this removal or what's
so-called the killing or the end of the

27:55.810 --> 28:00.170
life of this beast, this Antichrist power,
is called a wound.

28:00.610 --> 28:02.870
And this wound is healed.

28:03.930 --> 28:08.490
It tells us in Revelation 13, verse 12
that, and he maketh the earth and them

28:08.490 --> 28:13.730
dwell therein to worship the first beast,
whose deadly wound was healed.

28:14.390 --> 28:20.030
This is a text word we'll be discussing
and covering in a lecture, an image to the

28:20.030 --> 28:20.270
beast.

28:20.330 --> 28:24.770
This has got to do with another beast that
arises and drives humanity to worship the

28:24.770 --> 28:25.390
first beast.

28:25.630 --> 28:28.310
The first beast being this Antichrist
beast.

28:28.950 --> 28:33.630
And this Antichrist beast according to
Revelation 13, verse 12 says, this

28:33.630 --> 28:37.690
Antichrist beast had a deadly wound and
this wound was healed.

28:38.930 --> 28:45.410
And number 21, this Antichrist's number is
666.

28:45.410 --> 28:49.070
Some people think about this number and
they say, oh, the mark of the beast,

28:49.170 --> 28:49.690
666.

28:50.270 --> 28:51.330
No, no, no, no, be careful.

28:52.430 --> 28:54.510
The mark of the beast isn't 666.

28:55.130 --> 28:57.070
The mark of the beast is something
different.

28:57.190 --> 28:58.650
We'll look into that in a different
lecture.

28:59.470 --> 29:02.890
This mark is a number of a man.

29:02.930 --> 29:03.770
Let's read it here.

29:04.190 --> 29:05.830
Revelation 13, verse 18.

29:06.150 --> 29:07.150
Here is wisdom.

29:07.970 --> 29:11.310
He that hath understanding, let him count
the number of the beast.

29:11.790 --> 29:17.070
For it is the number of a man,
and his number is 666.

29:18.150 --> 29:22.350
You see, this has got to do with trying to
figure out what is going to happen in

29:22.350 --> 29:25.970
future, trying to figure out how we are
going to defend ourselves against this

29:25.970 --> 29:29.070
beast, how to make sure we don't get
involved in deceptions.

29:29.350 --> 29:33.510
But at the same time, realizing that the
Bible gives us all of these

29:33.510 --> 29:38.550
characteristics on how to identify who
this Antichrist power is, and if we are

29:38.550 --> 29:42.750
willing to understand all of these
characteristics and then look into history

29:42.750 --> 29:47.490
and find out if there is anybody that fits
the mold, well, we should be able to

29:47.490 --> 29:48.910
figure out who the Antichrist is.

29:51.130 --> 29:53.990
The question then comes, who is he?

29:55.170 --> 29:56.970
Who is this Antichrist power?

29:58.730 --> 30:04.150
Well, I'd like to stop again and just read
the message which I gave you in the

30:04.150 --> 30:04.430
beginning.

30:05.330 --> 30:06.370
Heavy on the heart.

30:07.170 --> 30:08.910
Truth is independent of opinion.

30:09.730 --> 30:14.230
By its very definition, truth is
intolerant of error, every aspect

30:14.230 --> 30:16.310
petitioning to the conscience for
acknowledgement.

30:16.970 --> 30:20.650
The individual, however, holds the key to
admission or rejection.

30:22.210 --> 30:25.970
You will hold the key to either accept
this information or reject it.

30:26.870 --> 30:29.170
Your conscience is going to pull at the
heart strings.

30:29.730 --> 30:33.370
It's going to... maybe this information is
going to shock you.

30:34.050 --> 30:39.350
I pray in sincerity that you will find a
way to accept the information given.

30:40.530 --> 30:42.430
I don't do this vindictively.

30:42.690 --> 30:45.450
I do this because I've been asked
according to the Word of God.

30:46.070 --> 30:48.350
These are the characteristics of the
Antichrist.

30:48.770 --> 30:50.810
Work it out who it is that you can defend
yourself.

30:51.990 --> 30:56.250
Today, more often than ever, we are being
taught, don't worry about the Antichrist.

30:56.570 --> 30:57.710
We don't have to worry about him.

30:58.050 --> 30:59.310
Christ will look after him.

31:00.050 --> 31:00.650
Yes, he will.

31:01.210 --> 31:01.970
Oh yes, he will.

31:02.650 --> 31:04.710
He's even going to get a plague of his
own.

31:05.690 --> 31:11.530
But not only that, in the meantime,
the devil is going to give him powers to

31:11.530 --> 31:12.970
allow him to deceive us.

31:13.730 --> 31:15.770
So let's find out who this power is.

31:16.670 --> 31:20.810
21 biblical characteristics we've laid on
the table.

31:21.770 --> 31:28.350
There's only one power in the world that
fulfills all 21 of these identifying

31:28.350 --> 31:28.890
marks.

31:30.490 --> 31:34.750
That is, unfortunately, the papacy.

31:36.910 --> 31:41.630
When I say unfortunately, I say
unfortunately because of the context in

31:41.630 --> 31:42.210
which we live.

31:42.610 --> 31:46.510
Today, the papacy of the Roman Catholic
Church is one of the heralded,

31:46.850 --> 31:49.750
most uplifted marketing icons of our time.

31:51.710 --> 31:59.030
The papacy is an individual or the head of
a system that is seen as possibly the

31:59.030 --> 32:00.310
solution to our problems.

32:02.010 --> 32:04.970
It's easy enough for me to say,
well, boom, there's the answer.

32:05.830 --> 32:08.550
But let's make sure whether this is the
case.

32:09.670 --> 32:15.510
We have to look now at those 21
characteristics or 21 identifying marks

32:15.510 --> 32:22.310
and we have to say, is it possible that
this power can fulfill all 21 of those?

32:22.890 --> 32:23.590
Surely not.

32:24.950 --> 32:25.810
Well, let's have a look.

32:27.230 --> 32:29.430
Do you remember what the first
characteristic was?

32:30.110 --> 32:33.850
It has to be a power already working in
Paul's day.

32:34.430 --> 32:40.790
Remember in 2 Thessalonians, he said that
the power, this abomination of desolation

32:40.790 --> 32:41.730
does already work?

32:42.690 --> 32:46.890
Well, if you think about it, Rome,
the power of the Roman Catholic Church,

32:47.010 --> 32:49.490
Rome was in power at the time of Christ.

32:50.570 --> 32:54.910
You'll remember that it was a Roman
official that tried to kill baby Jesus.

32:55.890 --> 33:00.010
It was the governor, a Roman governor that
condemned Jesus.

33:00.770 --> 33:03.830
It was a Roman executioner that crucified
Jesus.

33:04.050 --> 33:09.510
It was a Roman emblem that sealed Jesus'
tomb and it was a Roman guard that watched

33:09.510 --> 33:12.670
the tomb while he was asleep on the
Sabbath day.

33:13.990 --> 33:18.170
Rome was certainly a power that was awake
and in force at the time.

33:19.530 --> 33:23.130
Second characteristic, it arises out of
the fourth beast.

33:23.270 --> 33:26.850
Can you remember when we went through the
statue, the gold, the silver of

33:26.850 --> 33:30.270
Medo-Persia, the hips of Greece and the
legs of Rome?

33:30.990 --> 33:34.150
And this is a power that comes out of the
fourth beast.

33:34.410 --> 33:36.050
One, two, three, four.

33:37.010 --> 33:38.310
This is the fourth beast.

33:38.450 --> 33:40.970
This is the fourth kingdom that rises.

33:41.270 --> 33:43.310
It rises out of the Roman kingdom.

33:43.690 --> 33:46.870
Well, we know it as the Roman Catholic
Church.

33:47.810 --> 33:52.210
Church history, again looking outside the
Bible, confirms this on page 175.

33:52.750 --> 33:57.330
It says, When the last wave of barbarian
invasions had spent its force,

33:57.710 --> 33:59.670
the face of Europe had been transformed.

34:00.230 --> 34:04.390
Independent Germanic kingdoms had been
established on the ruins of the Roman

34:04.390 --> 34:05.410
Empire.

34:06.330 --> 34:09.570
So out of this Roman Empire came this new
horn.

34:10.290 --> 34:14.610
The Church and churches on page 42 and 43
says a similar story.

34:15.330 --> 34:21.030
Out of the ruins of the Roman Empire there
gradually arose a new order of state whose

34:21.030 --> 34:22.590
central point was the Papal Sea.

34:23.110 --> 34:27.530
Therefore inevitably resulted in a
position not only new, but very different

34:27.530 --> 34:28.450
from the former.

34:28.670 --> 34:29.250
Do you remember that?

34:29.290 --> 34:31.330
It has to be diverse, different.

34:31.510 --> 34:32.990
Well, we'll look at that just now.

34:33.650 --> 34:39.530
The historian Thomas Hobbes in his book
Leviathan on page 457, he explains that,

34:39.650 --> 34:44.650
If a man consider the origin of this great
ecclesiastical dominion, he will easily

34:44.650 --> 34:49.130
perceive that the Papacy is none other
than the ghost of the deceased Roman

34:49.130 --> 34:52.010
Empire sitting crowned upon the grave
thereof.

34:53.130 --> 34:59.010
So history perceives the fact that what
the Bible is telling us might be true.

34:59.630 --> 35:06.270
The third characteristic is it arises
between those ten kingdoms, between ten

35:06.270 --> 35:06.610
horns.

35:06.930 --> 35:12.690
In other words, where Rome was is what we
now know today as Europe.

35:13.430 --> 35:17.450
So it has to arise in Europe or in the
European area.

35:17.910 --> 35:23.890
And we just look at the Time magazine
which explains Europe's new frontiers with

35:23.890 --> 35:26.030
a sort of satellite image down on Europe.

35:26.390 --> 35:30.090
And we can think, where would Rome have
been in that area?

35:30.310 --> 35:34.050
Where is the Roman kingdom today or the
Vatican today?

35:34.210 --> 35:35.610
Is it in the European area?

35:35.770 --> 35:36.250
Absolutely.

35:37.470 --> 35:41.090
Just by the way, this image is a very
interesting image.

35:41.310 --> 35:44.970
You'll notice that Time magazine puts the
star coming from the north.

35:46.110 --> 35:49.930
And you'll remember just now when we read
from Isaiah, Satan Lucifer said,

35:50.290 --> 35:52.930
I will exalt myself above the stars of
God.

35:52.970 --> 35:55.510
I will sit, I want to be in the sides of
the north.

35:56.410 --> 35:57.650
Well, this is not a difficult image.

35:57.790 --> 36:03.370
This is what they call signal pictures
where they send out images to those that

36:03.370 --> 36:04.670
understand these symbols.

36:04.810 --> 36:06.430
We'll get into this in later lectures.

36:08.230 --> 36:10.650
Europe's new frontiers, Time magazine
says.

36:11.710 --> 36:15.730
Well, out of that European area would
arise this Roman kingdom.

36:16.670 --> 36:17.770
Characteristic number four.

36:18.430 --> 36:22.970
He arises after the ten horns,
after all ten of them have already been

36:22.970 --> 36:23.510
set up.

36:24.270 --> 36:29.990
Well, we know that the Roman kingdom was
split into ten separate little kingdoms,

36:30.150 --> 36:31.450
ten separate horns.

36:32.470 --> 36:37.650
Here they are, the Franks, the
Anglo-Saxons, the Suevi, the Visigoths,

36:37.790 --> 36:41.410
the Burgundys, the Alamanni, the Lombards,
the Ostrogoths, the Heruli and the

36:41.410 --> 36:41.810
Vandals.

36:42.350 --> 36:45.750
Those were the ten kingdoms which Rome
became.

36:46.910 --> 36:53.870
Now, interestingly enough, we know that he
works under the auspices of religion.

36:53.990 --> 36:59.250
And I still had to quote out of Matthew 24
to show that this power is going to be

36:59.250 --> 37:00.950
standing inside the temple.

37:02.230 --> 37:02.890
Well, question.

37:03.730 --> 37:10.190
If he works under the auspices of religion
does the Roman Catholic papacy work as a

37:10.190 --> 37:10.910
religious figure?

37:11.010 --> 37:11.490
Yes or no?

37:12.510 --> 37:12.970
Absolutely.

37:14.250 --> 37:14.790
Number six.

37:14.990 --> 37:16.750
He has human-like qualities.

37:17.030 --> 37:17.930
He's not a computer.

37:18.230 --> 37:18.890
Quite correct.

37:19.210 --> 37:20.030
It's the papacy.

37:20.270 --> 37:22.370
It's a normal human being.

37:22.970 --> 37:23.870
Number seven.

37:24.070 --> 37:27.610
He's different and diverse from the
others.

37:27.950 --> 37:33.250
You see, this is the first time in history
that a power was both the power of the

37:33.250 --> 37:35.610
religious and the political world.

37:35.670 --> 37:40.070
Up to now, a power had been somebody like
Alexander the Great who was a political

37:40.070 --> 37:42.210
power, a beast to be reckoned with.

37:42.970 --> 37:46.790
This was for the first time the
combination of what they call today church

37:46.790 --> 37:47.370
and state.

37:48.370 --> 37:52.630
Western Europe from the decline of Rome to
the Reformation on page 37 says,

37:52.890 --> 37:56.550
his or Justinian's reign saw the
traditional view of the emperor as the

37:56.550 --> 38:02.110
protector of the church changed to that of
the emperor as the governor of the church.

38:02.770 --> 38:07.810
So where his role was just a one-sided
affair, he now started to look after both

38:07.810 --> 38:09.950
secular and religious issues as well.

38:10.850 --> 38:11.170
C.C.

38:11.210 --> 38:15.190
Eckhart, who is a historian, said in his
book, The Papacy and the World Affairs,

38:15.290 --> 38:19.890
on the very first page, when the Roman
Empire had disintegrated and its place had

38:19.890 --> 38:24.570
been taken by a number of rude barbarous
kingdoms, the Roman Catholic Church not

38:24.570 --> 38:29.410
only became independent of state in
religious affairs, but dominated secular

38:29.410 --> 38:30.270
affairs as well.

38:31.010 --> 38:33.950
So it's different from all the others.

38:34.630 --> 38:35.130
Number eight.

38:35.790 --> 38:40.630
Remember it has to uproot three kings or
uproot three horns, three kingdoms before

38:40.630 --> 38:41.710
it can come to power?

38:42.650 --> 38:44.850
Well, let's go back to the graphic and
have a look.

38:45.270 --> 38:49.790
Those were the ten kingdoms that came
before and these are the seven kingdoms

38:49.790 --> 38:50.970
that remained behind.

38:51.950 --> 38:54.370
Arrhenius' followers were destroyed.

38:54.870 --> 39:00.810
All of the ones which they called or
Arrian followers were destroyed by 538.

39:01.170 --> 39:03.290
Now there is a lot of debate around this.

39:03.670 --> 39:06.910
There were three specific kingdoms that
were destroyed.

39:07.690 --> 39:10.130
Those were the Heruli, the Ostrogoths and
the Vandals.

39:10.570 --> 39:14.310
Today we have the Visigoths which are
today the Spanish.

39:14.470 --> 39:16.950
We have the Suevi which is today Portugal.

39:17.150 --> 39:19.390
We have the Saxons which is England.

39:19.570 --> 39:21.170
We have Lombards which is Italians.

39:21.330 --> 39:24.790
We have the Burgundians which are the
Swiss and we have the Alemanni which are

39:24.790 --> 39:25.290
the Germans.

39:26.470 --> 39:31.570
And the papacy tells us or the Vatican
system, the Catholic system tells us that

39:31.570 --> 39:35.630
these three kingdoms were not true
followers of Christ.

39:35.750 --> 39:37.650
They were pagan type religions.

39:38.850 --> 39:45.010
Well we only know that from Catholic
records because every time a kingdom was

39:45.010 --> 39:49.750
taken over, they and their records,
every historic thing was wiped off the

39:49.750 --> 39:50.490
face of the earth.

39:51.410 --> 39:58.790
Some documents are now coming to light
that we are starting to realize that it

39:58.790 --> 39:59.930
might not have been the case.

40:00.370 --> 40:06.130
These might have been three kingdoms that
believed in the scriptures and sort of

40:06.130 --> 40:10.510
Biblical, the perspective on the Bible and
the Bible alone, but we don't know that

40:10.510 --> 40:10.990
for sure.

40:11.370 --> 40:13.890
All we know is that they've been wiped off
the map.

40:15.230 --> 40:18.450
Three kings that had to be uprooted before
538?

40:19.090 --> 40:19.570
Absolutely.

40:19.790 --> 40:20.830
Fulfillment of prophecy?

40:21.950 --> 40:22.430
100%.

40:22.430 --> 40:26.750
Number nine, this little power has to be
greater than the others.

40:27.090 --> 40:29.610
It has to claim to rule the world.

40:30.370 --> 40:32.410
Well I can't tell you that they say that.

40:32.790 --> 40:36.750
We have to go into their documents and
find out whether that can possibly be

40:36.750 --> 40:37.010
true.

40:37.910 --> 40:41.230
This is a quote from the Most Holy
Councils, Volume 13.

40:41.690 --> 40:42.850
It says the following.

40:44.110 --> 40:49.210
We define that the Holy Apostolic See and
the Roman Pontiff, that's the Pope,

40:49.610 --> 40:53.290
holds the primacy over the whole world.

40:54.650 --> 40:59.710
Now it's one thing to claim that,
but it's another thing to repeat it and

40:59.710 --> 41:01.250
repeat it and repeat it.

41:01.630 --> 41:04.190
Let's have a look at what Henry Cardinal
Manning says.

41:04.430 --> 41:05.650
These are all Catholic sources.

41:06.230 --> 41:09.030
The Temple Power of the Vicar of Jesus
Christ, page 46.

41:10.030 --> 41:15.670
The vicar of the incarnate Son of God,
anointed high priest and supreme temporal

41:15.670 --> 41:20.610
ruler, the Pope, sat in his tribunal
impartially to judge between nation and

41:20.610 --> 41:25.010
nation, between people and prince,
between sovereign and subject.

41:25.830 --> 41:26.470
Wow!

41:27.830 --> 41:33.570
This is a point of view from Henry
Cardinal Manning that says the papacy,

41:34.110 --> 41:38.070
although the people on the ground don't
know that, they think their king is in

41:38.070 --> 41:43.410
charge, the papacy is able to impartially
judge between nation and nation and people

41:43.410 --> 41:45.310
and prince and sovereign and subject.

41:46.130 --> 41:48.390
This is not something that's normally
known.

41:49.470 --> 41:53.210
Today we look at a very different picture,
of course.

41:53.590 --> 41:59.010
The papacy wouldn't claim authority over
the new world order or the world powers.

41:59.130 --> 41:59.970
Would that be possible?

42:00.770 --> 42:03.090
Well here's an image of Malachi Martin's
book.

42:03.570 --> 42:06.230
He's a pontifical professor in the
Vatican.

42:06.930 --> 42:09.190
He wrote this book, The Keys of this
Blood.

42:09.930 --> 42:11.730
Read the subtext underneath the heading.

42:11.830 --> 42:18.930
It says, Pope John Paul II versus Russia
and the West for control of the new world

42:18.930 --> 42:19.670
order.

42:21.150 --> 42:26.710
For this entire period of time,
this power has still claimed more and more

42:26.710 --> 42:27.730
and more authority.

42:28.330 --> 42:32.530
And it's getting to the point now,
we're going to get right into the lectures

42:32.530 --> 42:35.890
and we're going to see more and more how
this power is claiming more and more

42:35.890 --> 42:36.170
power.

42:36.290 --> 42:41.730
The papacy saying that I will control your
country, not that the people on the ground

42:41.730 --> 42:46.270
will know, but the kings know quietly that
I'm the power that rules you.

42:46.630 --> 42:49.250
This power has to be greater than the
others.

42:49.810 --> 42:50.790
Fulfillment of prophecy?

42:51.230 --> 42:51.730
Absolutely.

42:53.110 --> 42:54.290
What about number 10?

42:54.470 --> 42:56.550
He makes war with the saints.

42:57.950 --> 43:00.690
Well again, we just have to go back in
history and have a look.

43:01.130 --> 43:04.730
The title, or the word heresy comes to
mind.

43:05.330 --> 43:10.650
In the article Heresy on page 440,
it states, heresy or from the Greek

43:10.650 --> 43:15.830
heresis, which means choice, which means
deciding for oneself what you want to

43:15.830 --> 43:16.150
believe.

43:17.070 --> 43:22.990
So if you want to believe what the Bible
says and the papacy says, no, no,

43:23.030 --> 43:25.110
no, I say this, the Bible says that.

43:25.470 --> 43:30.550
If you decide for yourself to rather go
this way, opposing what the pope says,

43:30.710 --> 43:32.070
you are called a heretic.

43:33.310 --> 43:38.790
Now heresis means choice, deciding for
oneself what we should and shouldn't

43:38.790 --> 43:39.190
believe.

43:40.230 --> 43:44.650
So let's have a look at the regulations of
the Synod of Toulouse concerning the

43:44.650 --> 43:45.310
Inquisition.

43:45.430 --> 43:49.230
This was the persecution of those that
didn't believe according to the Catholic

43:49.230 --> 43:49.590
Church.

43:49.870 --> 43:51.930
This is in 1229.

43:52.090 --> 43:53.150
This is a long time ago.

43:53.910 --> 43:58.310
A priest and two or more lay people must
diligently search out heretics.

43:58.470 --> 44:00.710
In other words, those people that want to
believe what they want to believe.

44:01.270 --> 44:06.250
If they discover a heretic, a follower,
a patron or a protector of heretics,

44:06.370 --> 44:11.390
they must, taking precaution that they do
not escape, quickly notify the bishop and

44:11.390 --> 44:15.010
mayor of the place or his bailiff so they
will be duly punished.

44:15.570 --> 44:20.690
The house where a heretic is found must be
torn down and the property must be

44:20.690 --> 44:21.390
confiscated.

44:22.030 --> 44:26.590
All members of the parish shall vow to the
bishop under oath that they will preserve

44:26.590 --> 44:30.010
the Catholic faith and will persecute
heretics according to their power.

44:30.570 --> 44:32.690
This oath must be renewed every two years.

44:33.510 --> 44:37.250
Lay people are not permitted to possess
the books of the Old and the New

44:37.250 --> 44:37.710
Testament.

44:38.010 --> 44:39.190
They are not allowed to read these books.

44:39.690 --> 44:44.870
Only the Psalter, the Breviary or the
little office of the Blessed Virgin and

44:44.870 --> 44:46.950
these books not in the vernacular
language.

44:47.670 --> 44:52.110
Pastors must explain these regulations to
their parishioners four times a year.

44:53.470 --> 44:59.550
So there was a certain movement that was
pushed out a long time ago which allowed

44:59.550 --> 45:04.810
even the members to persecute the members
if they were deemed or even the suspicion.

45:04.970 --> 45:09.930
Suspicion was conviction in those days
where if you were considered to be

45:09.930 --> 45:13.750
somebody that thought along the lines of
thinking anything other than what the

45:13.750 --> 45:17.630
papacy says, you were deemed a heretic and
your house was to be burnt and you were to

45:17.630 --> 45:18.670
be set alight yourself.

45:19.630 --> 45:24.270
The History Channel gives an image of just
one of the many ways that they tortured

45:24.270 --> 45:26.990
these poor souls over these many,
many years.

45:27.770 --> 45:32.090
Tying them onto a wheel, making a fire
underneath and slowly roasting them over

45:32.090 --> 45:33.210
these burnt coals.

45:33.530 --> 45:37.050
Absolutely disgusting, despicable things
that were done to these people.

45:38.070 --> 45:41.670
Catholic professor Alfred Baudrillard said
the following.

45:42.850 --> 45:45.750
The Catholic Church is a respecter of
conscience and of liberty.

45:46.790 --> 45:51.170
Nevertheless, when confronted by heresy,
she has recourse to force, to corporal

45:51.170 --> 45:52.310
punishment, to torture.

45:52.970 --> 45:55.530
She lit in Italy the funeral piles of the
Inquisition.

45:56.390 --> 45:58.330
This was confirmed in Cardinal Bellarmine.

45:58.690 --> 46:03.830
A bit later he speaks about the experience
that teaches that there is no other remedy

46:03.830 --> 46:08.230
for the evil but to put heretics or
Protestants to death.

46:09.170 --> 46:13.290
For the Romish Church proceeded gradually
and tried every remedy.

46:13.790 --> 46:18.150
At first she, this is now the Roman
Catholic Church, she merely excommunicated

46:18.150 --> 46:18.430
them.

46:18.990 --> 46:24.330
Afterwards she added a fine, then she
banished them and, oh shame, finally she

46:24.330 --> 46:27.110
was constrained to put them to death.

46:28.110 --> 46:34.230
Very, very sad how she was constrained
when the people said, but the Bible says

46:34.230 --> 46:34.910
something else.

46:35.250 --> 46:37.050
They were called Protestants.

46:38.410 --> 46:42.530
Protestors, people that protested that
what you are trying to sell me is not

46:42.530 --> 46:42.890
true.

46:43.590 --> 46:46.390
The Bible says the following and I can't
go against that.

46:46.870 --> 46:47.810
Who are you to tell me?

46:48.070 --> 46:51.890
Those people, they were constrained to put
those people to death.

46:52.810 --> 46:56.530
And these are the type of disgusting
things that were done to these people,

46:57.610 --> 47:04.450
put on chairs of spikes and wired into
these torture chambers, this one on the

47:04.450 --> 47:10.310
top right here being a back brace where
they would bend the spinal cord over this

47:10.310 --> 47:15.050
point to try and torture you into
submission so that you would give up your

47:15.050 --> 47:18.710
protesting against the papacy and
acknowledge that he is a true leader.

47:19.830 --> 47:25.910
History tells us that today more than a
hundred million Christians have been

47:25.910 --> 47:27.330
killed throughout the Middle Ages.

47:28.290 --> 47:32.570
Not only a hundred million, some people
are calculating as high as a hundred and

47:32.570 --> 47:36.370
fifty million people have been killed
through this means.

47:36.790 --> 47:37.850
Makes war with the saints?

47:38.830 --> 47:39.790
Fulfillment of prophecy?

47:40.230 --> 47:40.790
Absolutely.

47:42.190 --> 47:44.110
What about the next characteristic,
number 11?

47:44.710 --> 47:47.170
He speaks against God.

47:47.930 --> 47:51.510
Now, this is where this power comes into
its full might.

47:52.050 --> 47:56.830
He says, statement made on crowning of
Pope Leo the 10th, this is by Morgan

47:56.830 --> 48:02.890
Thomas, he says in his book Pontiff on
page 332, receive the tiara, this is the

48:02.890 --> 48:05.410
statement made when Pope Leo was crowned.

48:05.750 --> 48:10.630
Receive the tiara, be ordained with the
triple crown and know that thou art the

48:10.630 --> 48:15.970
father of the princes and of kings,
victor of the whole world, a replacement

48:15.970 --> 48:22.130
of Jesus Christ and receive the glory and
honor that has no end and that belongs to

48:22.130 --> 48:22.390
you.

48:23.810 --> 48:30.870
Mother Teresa, later on in time,
said in 1984 at the worldwide retreat for

48:30.870 --> 48:35.790
priests, this is her speaking herself,
she said, only when the priest is there

48:35.790 --> 48:40.130
can we have our altar and tabernacle and
Jesus.

48:40.970 --> 48:43.430
Only the priest can put Jesus there for
us.

48:43.950 --> 48:47.690
Jesus wants to go there, but we cannot
bring him without the priest.

48:47.930 --> 48:50.090
The priest is another Christ.

48:52.110 --> 48:57.070
You see, when you are reading and
analyzing these things, we have come to

48:57.070 --> 49:01.370
believe that, or the protestors,
the protestants have come to be told that,

49:01.610 --> 49:07.090
no, no, no, what happened, happened a long
time ago and that was a misunderstanding.

49:08.870 --> 49:13.690
Well, we are going to have to look into
this in some depth, because in 1984,

49:14.250 --> 49:19.430
that's only 13 years ago, or 23 years ago
at least, that's only a quarter of a

49:19.430 --> 49:23.790
century ago, Mother Teresa said the same
thing.

49:25.130 --> 49:29.110
This power will speak blasphemies against
God.

49:30.290 --> 49:32.550
He in fact blasphemes God himself.

49:33.550 --> 49:37.030
Now, I again can't tell you what a
blasphemy is.

49:37.870 --> 49:40.910
We say, the Bible says he's going to speak
blasphemies.

49:41.110 --> 49:43.990
So please, Bible, could you tell us what a
blasphemy is?

49:44.790 --> 49:49.450
Well, in Luke 5, 20 and 21, we get a very
clear indication of what it is.

49:49.670 --> 49:50.470
Let's read it together.

49:51.050 --> 49:55.130
And when he saw their faith, he said,
Man, your sins are forgiven you.

49:55.430 --> 49:59.430
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to
question, saying, Who is this who speaks

49:59.430 --> 50:00.190
blasphemies?

50:00.290 --> 50:02.150
Who can forgive sins but God alone?

50:03.570 --> 50:06.090
So according to Luke, what is a blasphemy?

50:06.890 --> 50:10.950
A blasphemy is somebody that claims to be
able to forgive your sins.

50:11.610 --> 50:13.270
So that's the one biblical example.

50:13.650 --> 50:18.290
The second biblical example is available
for reading in John 10.

50:18.750 --> 50:19.570
Let's read it together.

50:19.710 --> 50:21.650
John 10, verses 30 to 33.

50:22.030 --> 50:23.350
This is Jesus speaking.

50:23.470 --> 50:26.510
He said, I and the Father are one.

50:27.430 --> 50:32.990
Verse 33 says, And the Jews answered him,
It is not for a good work that we are

50:32.990 --> 50:38.050
going to stone you, but for blasphemy,
because you, being a man, make yourself

50:38.050 --> 50:38.970
God.

50:40.030 --> 50:44.490
So the first definition of blasphemy is
claiming to be able to forgive sins.

50:44.850 --> 50:50.750
The second biblical definition of
blasphemy is calling yourself as a man,

50:51.430 --> 50:52.030
God.

50:53.010 --> 50:55.610
Biblical characteristics of blasphemy.

50:56.530 --> 50:59.590
Does this power somehow fulfill these
blasphemies?

50:59.750 --> 51:01.390
Well, let's have a look at their
documentation.

51:02.770 --> 51:07.470
Catholic Encyclopedia, volume 2,
article on the Pope, page 265.

51:08.110 --> 51:13.110
This judicial authority will even include
the power to pardon sin.

51:14.090 --> 51:14.990
Let's check another one.

51:15.370 --> 51:17.090
The Catholic Priest, page 87.

51:17.790 --> 51:21.430
Seek where you will through heaven and
earth and you will find one created being

51:21.430 --> 51:25.290
who can forgive the sinner, who can free
him from the chains of hell.

51:25.550 --> 51:30.750
That extraordinary being is the priest,
the Roman Catholic priest.

51:31.130 --> 51:34.590
Is this power speaking blasphemies,
according to Luke?

51:35.070 --> 51:35.650
Yes.

51:36.310 --> 51:37.290
Let's try another one.

51:37.650 --> 51:40.890
The Catholic National, July 1895.

51:41.450 --> 51:44.090
Thou art a priest forever, says the
ordaining bishop.

51:44.490 --> 51:50.750
He is no longer a man, a sinful child of
Adam, but an alter Christus, another

51:50.750 --> 51:51.330
Christ.

51:52.030 --> 51:56.790
Forever a priest of the Most High with the
power over the Almighty.

51:57.070 --> 52:01.730
The Pope is not only the representative of
Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ

52:01.730 --> 52:03.930
himself, hidden under the veil of flesh.

52:05.670 --> 52:10.970
Here is a man calling himself God above
the God of heaven.

52:11.630 --> 52:16.170
According to the Catholic National,
their own documentation, this power has

52:16.170 --> 52:17.690
power over the Almighty.

52:18.730 --> 52:20.610
Is that a blasphemy according to the
Bible?

52:21.250 --> 52:21.850
Absolutely.

52:23.530 --> 52:26.650
Dignity and Duties of the Priest,
volume 12, page 27.

52:26.970 --> 52:29.590
All of these are their quotes.

52:29.830 --> 52:32.150
I'm not saying this, they are saying it.

52:33.090 --> 52:37.990
And God himself is obliged to abide by the
judgment of his priests, and either not to

52:37.990 --> 52:41.950
pardon or to pardon according as they
refuse or give absolution.

52:42.130 --> 52:43.670
Listen to this, let me read it again.

52:44.530 --> 52:51.010
And God himself is obliged to abide by the
judgment of his priests, and either not to

52:51.010 --> 52:55.990
pardon or to pardon according as they
refuse or give absolution.

52:56.430 --> 53:00.510
The sentence of the priest proceeds and
God subscribes to it.

53:01.870 --> 53:02.510
Blasphemy?

53:03.330 --> 53:03.970
Absolutely.

53:04.730 --> 53:07.630
Imagine saying that God has to listen to
what you decide.

53:08.710 --> 53:11.930
Michael Muller, in his book, The Catholic
Priest, said something as well.

53:12.650 --> 53:16.010
He says, or he asks the question,
who can forgive sins?

53:16.850 --> 53:21.150
There is a man on this earth that can
forgive sins, and that man is the Catholic

53:21.150 --> 53:21.550
Priest.

53:21.930 --> 53:26.970
Yes, beloved brethren, the priest does not
only declare that the sin is, or the sin

53:26.970 --> 53:29.790
to be forgiven, but actually forgives the
sin.

53:30.610 --> 53:35.070
The priest lifts his hand, speaks the
word, and instantly the sinner becomes a

53:35.070 --> 53:35.650
child of God.

53:36.030 --> 53:40.150
So great is the power of the priest that
the judgment of heaven is subject to the

53:40.150 --> 53:41.070
decision of the priest.

53:42.490 --> 53:44.750
My word, this is powerful stuff.

53:46.110 --> 53:50.530
Throughout these lectures, I will not be
saying a thing.

53:51.350 --> 53:58.650
I will give you quote after quote after
quote from their sources that will confirm

53:58.650 --> 54:00.530
that what the Bible is saying is true.

54:01.630 --> 54:07.730
Cardinal Bellarmine said on Authority of
Councils, Volume 2, page 266, all the

54:07.730 --> 54:13.530
names which in Scripture are applied to
Christ, the same names are applied to the

54:13.530 --> 54:13.750
Pope.

54:14.950 --> 54:22.130
And then in June 20 of 1894, the great
encyclical letters of Pope Leo XIII,

54:22.630 --> 54:27.550
it is written, We hold upon this earth the
place of God Almighty.

54:28.630 --> 54:32.950
Now when you claim to be God Almighty,
you are claiming something at a great

54:32.950 --> 54:33.330
risk.

54:33.570 --> 54:39.310
Acts 12 verses 21-23 tell us of a story
where Herod one day claimed the same.

54:39.630 --> 54:43.430
And read with me what it says,
And upon a set day Herod arrayed in royal

54:43.430 --> 54:46.690
apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an
oration to them.

54:46.710 --> 54:48.490
In other words, he was speaking to them.

54:48.850 --> 54:53.630
And the people gave a shout, saying,
It is the voice of a God and not of a man.

54:54.270 --> 54:57.950
And immediately the angel of the Lord
smote him, because he gave not God the

54:57.950 --> 55:01.330
glory, and he was eaten of worms and gave
up the ghost.

55:02.090 --> 55:09.150
It is a risky thing to claim authority and
glory for yourself rather than to give it

55:09.150 --> 55:09.570
to God.

55:11.110 --> 55:18.350
Here is an old pope, Pope Benedict,
claiming himself to be God, as if by the

55:18.350 --> 55:23.970
birth of Jesus Christ when they came to
give gifts to God, he is doing the same.

55:25.810 --> 55:28.050
Underneath it is written, Gifts.

55:28.730 --> 55:34.330
Pope Benedict XVI receives offertory gifts
from the children dressed as the Magi

55:34.330 --> 55:40.070
during the Mass in St. Peter's Basilica at
the Vatican on January 1st, the Feast of

55:40.070 --> 55:41.770
Mary, Mother of God.

55:43.190 --> 55:46.050
Again, Benedict is claiming to be God.

55:47.550 --> 55:51.870
You see, what we are going to have to look
at is, what did they say in the past and

55:51.870 --> 55:52.890
what are they saying today?

55:53.490 --> 55:56.970
Many of the quotes that I give you are
going to come closer and closer and closer

55:56.970 --> 55:58.030
to where we are today.

55:58.650 --> 56:02.510
And you are going to see that this beast,
this antichrist power hasn't changed.

56:04.290 --> 56:08.590
Throughout history the same meaning must
be given to prophecy in the past as what

56:08.590 --> 56:09.190
it is today.

56:09.730 --> 56:13.670
We just have to look into media through
the filter of prophecy and be able to

56:13.670 --> 56:15.130
recognize all of these signs.

56:15.890 --> 56:18.870
Everything is being fulfilled to absolute
perfection.

56:20.070 --> 56:21.930
We've only done eleven of the
characteristics.

56:22.450 --> 56:23.430
Let's do number twelve.

56:26.150 --> 56:27.190
He blasphemes God.

56:27.630 --> 56:28.690
We've just done that.

56:28.750 --> 56:29.790
Let's do number thirteen.

56:31.350 --> 56:33.510
He blasphemes God's tabernacle.

56:34.790 --> 56:40.050
Now, if you don't understand what it means
by God's tabernacle, then it's difficult

56:40.050 --> 56:42.610
to realize how he is blaspheming it.

56:43.650 --> 56:47.450
Many of the blasphemies which he does are
done in secret.

56:48.050 --> 56:52.870
And I will be uncovering in the next
lecture and the lecture thereafter how the

56:52.870 --> 57:01.170
true secret religions are in opposition to
the tabernacle or the sanctuary of God.

57:01.770 --> 57:06.010
But just on the surface itself,
if you look into St. Peter's and into the

57:06.010 --> 57:09.590
Vatican and into Roman Catholic churches,
you'll see the same thing.

57:10.210 --> 57:15.510
Here's an image of St. Peter and above
you've got what's called Bernini's canopy

57:15.510 --> 57:19.030
with the serpentine pillars going to the
top.

57:20.270 --> 57:26.010
You've got the images of gold and of
wealth and not only of that, but of the

57:26.010 --> 57:27.170
snake figures themselves.

57:27.970 --> 57:32.270
On these serpentine pillars which go to
the top, you look up at the top,

57:32.350 --> 57:36.130
you've got sun symbols which will get into
in later lectures.

57:36.270 --> 57:39.370
You've got honeycombs, you've got
beehives, you've got bees.

57:39.850 --> 57:45.830
And then not only is the temple which is
sacred or supposed to be sanctified in

57:45.830 --> 57:50.350
front of God blasphemed, but the things
which are done inside the temple are

57:50.350 --> 57:51.930
blasphemous to God.

57:53.150 --> 57:56.990
What is the first thing you have to do
when you walk as a Roman Catholic into a

57:56.990 --> 57:57.750
Catholic church?

57:58.070 --> 58:01.450
Is you have to kneel down in front of the
cross with Jesus on it.

58:02.690 --> 58:07.030
Well, this is what is known in the Ten
Commandments as bowing down to a graven

58:07.030 --> 58:09.710
image, which we are told we're not allowed
to do.

58:10.670 --> 58:15.530
And here are images of the Pope
worshipping and bowing down to a statue of

58:15.530 --> 58:15.790
Mary.

58:16.730 --> 58:21.370
Benedict does the same thing as an image
of Pope Benedict bowing down and

58:21.370 --> 58:22.810
worshipping a statue of Mary.

58:23.690 --> 58:26.410
Number 14, he blasphemes the angels.

58:27.170 --> 58:28.770
Well, we just have to look into the
Vatican.

58:29.170 --> 58:33.930
We can go into the St. Peter's Basilica or
we can go into the Sistine Chapel.

58:34.270 --> 58:40.070
You look up at the ceiling and there you
have many, many, many pictures of the

58:40.070 --> 58:43.250
angels in a tiny little cherub form.

58:43.770 --> 58:49.250
Weak little babies with tiny little wings
that don't really have power over

58:49.250 --> 58:49.670
anything.

58:50.750 --> 58:58.090
A biblical depiction of the angel is a
type of male power, powerful male form,

58:58.670 --> 59:03.530
which when needed can overpower just
through the breath of an angel,

59:03.550 --> 59:07.090
just through one movement can overpower
thousands of people.

59:08.250 --> 59:12.930
This transformation of the angels into
tiny little weak cherubs that are very

59:12.930 --> 59:15.790
cute, that's blasphemous against the Word
of God.

59:17.110 --> 59:22.450
Number 15, the characteristic number 15,
he will change times.

59:23.190 --> 59:27.790
Well, he will think to change times
because time was set up by God.

59:28.130 --> 59:29.890
And you can't change what God has set up.

59:30.270 --> 59:34.890
You can think to change it, or think that
you are changing it, but you can't really

59:34.890 --> 59:35.490
change it.

59:36.370 --> 59:43.830
World Almanac on page 646 says the
following, by 1582 the accumulated error

59:43.830 --> 59:45.390
was estimated at 10 days.

59:46.090 --> 59:51.410
In that year, Pope Gregory XIII decreed
that the day following October 4th,

59:51.430 --> 59:58.750
1582, should be called October 15,
thus dropping 10 days and initiating the

59:58.750 --> 59:59.850
Gregorian calendar.

01:00:00.930 --> 01:00:04.070
The Gregorian calendar is the calendar we
live according to today.

01:00:05.150 --> 01:00:07.990
The week was still kept the same,
it was still Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,

01:00:08.170 --> 01:00:12.510
Thursday, Friday, but as it explains in
this graphic, Monday was the first,

01:00:12.630 --> 01:00:16.570
Tuesday the second, Wednesday the third,
Thursday the fourth, and Friday was the

01:00:16.570 --> 01:00:17.030
fifteenth.

01:00:17.710 --> 01:00:22.010
The rotation of the week was the same,
but the date was changed, and he thought

01:00:22.010 --> 01:00:23.630
to change the times.

01:00:24.530 --> 01:00:28.930
Not only was the calendar changed,
but midnight was changed, or the start of

01:00:28.930 --> 01:00:29.990
the day was changed.

01:00:31.010 --> 01:00:37.210
Throughout history, or biblical history,
time started, the day starts, when you go

01:00:37.210 --> 01:00:37.770
to sleep.

01:00:38.950 --> 01:00:42.870
It's the reason that the Sabbath starts on
the Friday evening, because you can't

01:00:42.870 --> 01:00:47.190
start the Sabbath by working, you start
the Sabbath by resting, it's the rest day.

01:00:47.510 --> 01:00:50.450
So on a Friday evening the Sabbath starts.

01:00:50.670 --> 01:00:55.830
Every day started at sunset and ended at
sunset with a new day starting at sunset.

01:00:56.370 --> 01:01:00.090
This was changed, now we live according to
midnight to midnight.

01:01:00.450 --> 01:01:05.210
Every day starts at zero, zero,
zero, zero, and ends at eleven at night,

01:01:05.470 --> 01:01:06.450
eleven fifty-nine.

01:01:07.170 --> 01:01:09.250
This power will think to change laws.

01:01:10.210 --> 01:01:15.450
Now, if you are in opposition to and
coming in the place of Christ,

01:01:15.990 --> 01:01:18.150
whose laws do you think you're going to
want to change?

01:01:19.410 --> 01:01:20.330
Zimbabwe's laws?

01:01:21.090 --> 01:01:22.150
America's laws?

01:01:22.770 --> 01:01:23.790
Australia's laws?

01:01:25.270 --> 01:01:27.510
God's laws, that's who you're going to
want to change.

01:01:28.950 --> 01:01:33.310
Decretal de Translap Episcop Cap,
explains exactly that.

01:01:33.770 --> 01:01:38.210
Roman Catholic source that says,
the Pope has the power to change times,

01:01:38.650 --> 01:01:42.390
to abrogate laws and dispense with all
things, now listen to what they say,

01:01:42.810 --> 01:01:45.170
even the precepts of Christ.

01:01:46.310 --> 01:01:50.870
Prompto Bibliotheca Papa article two says
the Pope can modify divine law.

01:01:52.330 --> 01:01:55.410
You see, if you have a look in the Old
Testament and you go and have a look at

01:01:55.410 --> 01:02:01.410
the normal King James Bible, and you have
a look, what are the ten commandments in

01:02:01.410 --> 01:02:02.950
the King James Bible?

01:02:03.510 --> 01:02:07.650
And you lay them out, one, thou shalt not
have any other gods before thee.

01:02:08.190 --> 01:02:11.470
Two, thou shalt not bow down to any graven
image.

01:02:12.330 --> 01:02:16.130
Three, thou shalt not take the name of thy
Lord in vain.

01:02:16.890 --> 01:02:18.790
Four, remember the Sabbath day.

01:02:20.330 --> 01:02:23.930
Have a look for a moment if you can,
here's an image for you if you don't have

01:02:23.930 --> 01:02:29.110
one at your bedside, the Catechism of the
Catholic Church by Cardinal Peter

01:02:29.110 --> 01:02:33.590
Gasparri, this is brand new, it's 1932,
this is a newish document.

01:02:34.390 --> 01:02:37.210
Have a look, what are the ten commandments
available there?

01:02:38.170 --> 01:02:42.910
One, I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt
have no other gods before me.

01:02:43.090 --> 01:02:45.390
Wonderful, thank you very much,
that's the same as ours.

01:02:45.830 --> 01:02:51.170
Number two, thou shalt not take the name
of thy Lord God in vain.

01:02:52.350 --> 01:02:53.590
Stop a second there.

01:02:54.290 --> 01:02:58.630
What is the second commandment in the King
James Version Bible?

01:02:59.370 --> 01:03:05.430
The second commandment is, thou shalt not
bow down to any graven image, right?

01:03:06.090 --> 01:03:10.270
What is the second commandment in the
Catechism of the Catholic Church?

01:03:10.710 --> 01:03:13.810
Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in
vain.

01:03:14.290 --> 01:03:16.070
But that's the third commandment.

01:03:16.410 --> 01:03:18.950
The fourth commandment says, remember the
Sabbath.

01:03:19.470 --> 01:03:22.950
But here, the third commandment says,
remember the Sabbath.

01:03:24.130 --> 01:03:28.070
You see, what has happened here is that
the second commandment has been removed.

01:03:29.030 --> 01:03:33.990
Remember, we've just read the article that
says the Pope can modify divine law.

01:03:34.550 --> 01:03:38.050
The only divine law that's left on earth
is the moral law.

01:03:38.770 --> 01:03:43.850
So the papacy takes the opportunity and
the chance to remove the one that says,

01:03:43.950 --> 01:03:47.710
I'm not allowed to kneel down in front of
the statue of Mary, or I'm not allowed to

01:03:47.710 --> 01:03:50.850
kneel down in front of the cross with
Jesus Christ on it, because it's a graven

01:03:50.850 --> 01:03:51.210
image.

01:03:52.030 --> 01:03:57.690
It takes it out and issues its own ten
commandments and says, please abide by

01:03:57.690 --> 01:03:58.030
these.

01:03:58.650 --> 01:04:03.750
Not only is that the one change that
they've made, if you read on, you've now

01:04:03.750 --> 01:04:04.490
removed one.

01:04:04.590 --> 01:04:06.390
You can't live by the nine commandments.

01:04:07.430 --> 01:04:10.110
So they've obviously had to make another
change.

01:04:10.310 --> 01:04:14.910
They've taken number 10 and they've split
it in half and in true occult fashion,

01:04:15.010 --> 01:04:16.150
they've turned it upside down.

01:04:16.770 --> 01:04:22.270
So now, where the King James Version Bible
reads, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's

01:04:22.270 --> 01:04:25.710
house, neither shalt thou covet thy
neighbor's wife.

01:04:26.450 --> 01:04:30.570
Their ninth commandment reads,
thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.

01:04:30.670 --> 01:04:34.050
And then their 10th reads, thou shalt not
covet thy neighbor's goods.

01:04:35.070 --> 01:04:41.270
These are a new set of 10 commandments
issued by the papal power in contradiction

01:04:41.270 --> 01:04:43.170
to the word of God.

01:04:43.670 --> 01:04:49.110
The Catholic Encyclopedia says the
following on page 153 on volume 4.

01:04:49.650 --> 01:04:53.750
The church, after changing the day of rest
from the Jewish Sabbath of the seventh day

01:04:53.750 --> 01:04:57.630
of the week, made the third commandment,
which should naturally read as the fourth

01:04:57.630 --> 01:05:00.670
commandment, referred to Sunday as the day
to be kept as the Lord's day.

01:05:01.490 --> 01:05:02.490
They admit it.

01:05:02.850 --> 01:05:03.610
They know it.

01:05:03.970 --> 01:05:08.190
They changed it because they changed the
commandments and then they changed the

01:05:08.190 --> 01:05:08.330
Sabbath.

01:05:08.350 --> 01:05:10.090
We're going to get into that in the next
lecture.

01:05:11.030 --> 01:05:12.150
What about number 17?

01:05:12.370 --> 01:05:16.350
He will rule for 1,260 years.

01:05:18.010 --> 01:05:21.870
Well, Labanco, who's a professor of
history at the University of Rome,

01:05:21.970 --> 01:05:22.590
says the following.

01:05:23.470 --> 01:05:27.190
To the succession of the Caesars came the
succession of the Pontiffs in Rome.

01:05:27.290 --> 01:05:31.150
When Constantine left Rome, he gave his
seat to the Pontiff.

01:05:31.810 --> 01:05:35.570
Legally recognized supremacy of the Pope
began in 538 A.D.

01:05:35.710 --> 01:05:40.750
when they went into effect a decree from
Emperor Justinian, making the Bishop of

01:05:40.750 --> 01:05:44.610
Rome head over all the churches,
the definer of doctrine and the corrector

01:05:44.610 --> 01:05:45.210
of heretics.

01:05:46.750 --> 01:05:50.110
Virgilius ascended the papal chair in 538
A.D.

01:05:50.470 --> 01:05:52.510
under the military protection of
Belisarius.

01:05:52.850 --> 01:05:55.330
That's from History of the Christian
Church, Volume 3.

01:05:56.190 --> 01:05:58.290
So 538, BOOM!

01:05:58.530 --> 01:06:03.290
We've got our starting gun for this
marathon period of 1,260 years.

01:06:03.730 --> 01:06:07.070
Virgilius ascended the papal chair in 538.

01:06:07.170 --> 01:06:07.770
That's history.

01:06:07.970 --> 01:06:08.770
That's not biblical.

01:06:09.010 --> 01:06:10.470
That's pure history.

01:06:11.390 --> 01:06:18.630
So if we add 1,260 years from 538,
remembering that there's no zero here,

01:06:19.030 --> 01:06:26.090
minus 3, minus 2, minus 1, 1, 2,
etc., we come to the year of 1798.

01:06:28.190 --> 01:06:31.050
Would you like to guess what happened in
1798?

01:06:33.610 --> 01:06:34.070
1798?

01:06:34.610 --> 01:06:38.810
Well, I tell you what, let's not look into
the Bible, let's look outside the Bible

01:06:38.810 --> 01:06:40.310
and find out what history says.

01:06:40.950 --> 01:06:43.190
Church History, page 24, says the
following.

01:06:43.790 --> 01:06:49.890
The murder of a Frenchman in Rome in 1798
gave the French an excuse to occupy the

01:06:49.890 --> 01:06:54.570
Eternal City and put an end to the papal
temporal power.

01:06:55.810 --> 01:07:01.270
In 1798, the papacy as a power came to an
end.

01:07:02.310 --> 01:07:03.950
This quote continues...

01:07:12.870 --> 01:07:18.310
Another quote from the Encyclopedia
Americana in 1941 says...

01:07:18.310 --> 01:07:22.190
In 1798, Berthier made his entrance into
Rome.

01:07:22.450 --> 01:07:25.770
He abolished the papal government and
established a secular one.

01:07:26.250 --> 01:07:30.310
Berthier entered Rome on the 10th of
February in 1798 and proclaimed a

01:07:30.310 --> 01:07:30.730
republic.

01:07:31.730 --> 01:07:37.450
Half Europe thought Napoleon's veto would
be obeyed and that the pope and the papacy

01:07:37.450 --> 01:07:38.770
was dead.

01:07:39.750 --> 01:07:42.070
Modern papacy by Reverend Joseph Rickerby.

01:07:43.610 --> 01:07:48.290
History confirming what the

01:07:56.410 --> 01:07:57.070
papacy was in the 19th century.

01:07:57.130 --> 01:07:59.530
It's a perfect fulfillment of prophecy.

01:08:02.710 --> 01:08:08.870
Number 19 specifically identified the
power of how he must be killed.

01:08:08.970 --> 01:08:10.530
He says, with the sword he must be killed.

01:08:11.210 --> 01:08:15.870
Now, the way it's written in the Bible,
it explains that in In the same manner as

01:08:15.870 --> 01:08:21.190
he took over control of certain people,
in the same manner he will be removed from

01:08:21.190 --> 01:08:21.790
his power.

01:08:22.410 --> 01:08:26.730
In other words, he will be forced from
power like he forced the Protestants,

01:08:26.830 --> 01:08:28.090
the Protesters from power.

01:08:28.450 --> 01:08:28.850
Fulfilled?

01:08:29.350 --> 01:08:29.950
Absolutely.

01:08:30.870 --> 01:08:33.750
Number 20 says that the wound will be
healed.

01:08:34.930 --> 01:08:40.150
Now, that means that after this death of
the papacy, he will come to life again.

01:08:40.910 --> 01:08:43.730
Let's just read again Revelation 13 verse
3.

01:08:44.050 --> 01:08:49.310
And I saw one of his heads, as it were,
wounded to death, and his deadly wound was

01:08:49.310 --> 01:08:49.750
healed.

01:08:51.110 --> 01:08:56.390
Now in 1929, Mussolini and Cardinal
Gaspari signed the Italian-Vatican Treaty.

01:08:57.110 --> 01:09:03.050
The Pope received 750 million lira for his
support of the fascist party.

01:09:03.790 --> 01:09:11.350
On this historical day, Benito Mussolini
restored the Pope's power as a political

01:09:11.350 --> 01:09:11.850
entity.

01:09:11.950 --> 01:09:14.710
He gave him back his own little kingdom.

01:09:15.370 --> 01:09:18.690
And there is the San Francisco Chronicle,
an image of the Chronicle.

01:09:18.830 --> 01:09:19.510
Read this with me.

01:09:19.570 --> 01:09:20.410
It is phenomenal.

01:09:20.790 --> 01:09:22.270
They know what they are doing,
he says.

01:09:22.690 --> 01:09:26.390
The Roman question tonight was a thing of
the past, and the Vatican was at peace

01:09:26.390 --> 01:09:26.870
with Italy.

01:09:27.550 --> 01:09:32.850
In affixing the autographs of the memorial
document, healing the wound, extreme

01:09:32.850 --> 01:09:34.910
cordiality was displayed on both sides.

01:09:35.190 --> 01:09:36.970
February 11, 1929.

01:09:38.330 --> 01:09:41.630
Lastly we need to look at his number,
666.

01:09:42.710 --> 01:09:46.330
Our Sunday visitor, which is the Catholic
Weekly, explains to us that the letters

01:09:46.330 --> 01:09:48.470
inscribed in the Pope's mitre are these.

01:09:48.950 --> 01:09:54.010
Vicarius Filii Dei, which is Latin for the
Vicar of the Son of God.

01:09:54.370 --> 01:09:56.490
That's inscribed inside his mitre.

01:09:57.290 --> 01:10:01.470
Now the literal meaning of Vicarius Filii
Dei means Vicarius is substituting for,

01:10:01.570 --> 01:10:05.870
or in the place of, Filii is the Son and
Dei is God.

01:10:05.970 --> 01:10:08.650
So substituting in the place of the Son of
God.

01:10:08.770 --> 01:10:10.110
That's what's written in his mitre.

01:10:10.810 --> 01:10:14.590
Now you only have to do a mathematical
calculation because the Bible says

01:10:14.590 --> 01:10:16.650
calculate the number of the beast.

01:10:17.290 --> 01:10:22.770
And you take, in those days, each letter
referred to a number, or was a number,

01:10:23.430 --> 01:10:25.850
and the Roman lettering was the same.

01:10:25.850 --> 01:10:28.250
V would be a 5 and X would be a 10.

01:10:28.710 --> 01:10:33.870
So your Vicarius Filii Dei would add up to
666.

01:10:35.310 --> 01:10:39.970
Not only would it be Vicarius Filii Dei
that would add up to 666, but his other

01:10:39.970 --> 01:10:40.890
titles as well.

01:10:41.950 --> 01:10:46.410
Latinus, which is the Latin speaking man,
adds up to 666.

01:10:47.490 --> 01:10:53.670
Helena Basile, which means the Latin
kingdom, it adds up to 666.

01:10:54.110 --> 01:10:56.630
There are many that add up to 666.

01:10:59.550 --> 01:11:04.870
I gave you in the beginning 21 biblical
characteristics on how to identify the

01:11:04.870 --> 01:11:05.450
Antichrist.

01:11:06.610 --> 01:11:10.410
We've had a look at every single one of
them, and in the very first one,

01:11:10.490 --> 01:11:12.550
George Bush, Al Qaeda, all of them were
removed.

01:11:13.450 --> 01:11:17.570
We've run through and there's only one
power in the world that fulfills all 21.

01:11:18.530 --> 01:11:21.210
It is the Roman Catholic power.

01:11:23.550 --> 01:11:29.310
The problem is that there's a core
deception underneath this guise which he

01:11:29.310 --> 01:11:30.850
presents today in the world.

01:11:31.690 --> 01:11:34.530
And this core deception comes from
scripture.

01:11:35.870 --> 01:11:41.810
Just as I did when I was in the New Age,
use the biblical information to project

01:11:41.810 --> 01:11:46.590
lies into the world, so Satan is using
biblical information to project lies into

01:11:46.590 --> 01:11:47.010
the world.

01:11:47.270 --> 01:11:48.670
Satan found a loophole.

01:11:49.170 --> 01:11:53.110
Remember we read there that the laity,
the people on the ground, weren't allowed

01:11:53.110 --> 01:11:55.130
to have or read the New or the Old
Testament?

01:11:56.070 --> 01:11:59.850
Well, because people didn't understand or
weren't able to read the New or the Old

01:11:59.850 --> 01:12:05.710
Testament, and all their sermons and their
ceremonies were in Latin, when they quoted

01:12:05.710 --> 01:12:10.870
Mark 16, they quoted it slightly off the
cuff.

01:12:11.330 --> 01:12:11.830
Read with me.

01:12:12.110 --> 01:12:14.750
Mark 16, 13 to 17 and 19.

01:12:15.430 --> 01:12:19.150
Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea
Philippi and he asked his disciples

01:12:19.150 --> 01:12:22.750
saying, whom do you men say that I,
the Son of Man, am?

01:12:22.850 --> 01:12:27.770
And they said, some say that thou art John
the Baptist, some Elias, and others

01:12:27.770 --> 01:12:30.330
Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.

01:12:31.110 --> 01:12:33.910
And he said unto them, but whom do you say
that I am?

01:12:34.770 --> 01:12:40.570
And here Simon Peter answers Jesus Christ,
and he says, Thou art the Christ,

01:12:40.670 --> 01:12:41.730
the Son of the living God.

01:12:41.810 --> 01:12:45.550
And Jesus answered and said unto him,
Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jonah,

01:12:45.590 --> 01:12:48.790
for flesh and blood is not revealed unto
thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

01:12:49.330 --> 01:12:52.870
And I say also unto thee that thou art
Peter, upon this rock I will build my

01:12:52.870 --> 01:12:53.230
church.

01:12:55.270 --> 01:13:01.330
What has happened here is that an
interpretation has been given that Jesus

01:13:01.330 --> 01:13:05.330
Christ identifies Peter as the rock and
upon the rock he will build his church.

01:13:06.290 --> 01:13:09.550
But we have to ask ourselves the question,
how big is a rock in the Bible?

01:13:10.710 --> 01:13:15.790
Well, Judges 15 tells us that 3,000 men of
Judah went on top of the rock.

01:13:16.890 --> 01:13:23.290
Judges 20, 47 says that 600 men turned and
fled and abode, lived in the rock of Ramon

01:13:23.290 --> 01:13:23.870
for four months.

01:13:23.970 --> 01:13:25.570
A rock in the Bible is a mountain.

01:13:26.970 --> 01:13:32.650
But when you do a search in the Bible,
you find the term or the word rock 119

01:13:32.650 --> 01:13:33.690
times.

01:13:33.930 --> 01:13:37.910
Every time when referring to a person,
it's referring to God.

01:13:39.790 --> 01:13:43.310
So when it says, who is the rock of the
Bible?

01:13:44.510 --> 01:13:48.030
No prophecy of scripture being of any
private interpretation.

01:13:48.330 --> 01:13:50.770
We have to say, who is the rock of the
Bible?

01:13:51.050 --> 01:13:57.050
Please tell us and according to
Deuteronomy 32, 3 and 4, 2 Samuel 22,

01:13:57.350 --> 01:14:02.270
2 Samuel 22, 3 and 4, 2 Samuel 32,
Psalms 18 verse 2, 1 Corinthians 10 verse

01:14:02.270 --> 01:14:04.930
4, all of them say that Jesus Christ is
the rock.

01:14:05.770 --> 01:14:11.210
But today, the catechism of the Catholic
Church number 85 says, the task of giving

01:14:11.210 --> 01:14:15.330
an authentic interpretation of the word of
God, whether it is in its written form or

01:14:15.330 --> 01:14:18.590
in the form of tradition, has been
entrusted to the living and teaching

01:14:18.590 --> 01:14:19.790
office of the Church alone.

01:14:20.330 --> 01:14:22.430
So we will interpret scripture.

01:14:22.970 --> 01:14:28.690
They then release a Catholic Good News
Bible, which now says in Matthew 16 verse

01:14:28.690 --> 01:14:34.590
18, I tell you Peter, you are a rock and
upon this rock foundation I will build my

01:14:34.590 --> 01:14:34.910
church.

01:14:35.970 --> 01:14:37.370
See, that's not accurate.

01:14:38.970 --> 01:14:45.170
The truth behind it is that that thou art
Peter, upon this rock I will build my

01:14:45.170 --> 01:14:45.530
church.

01:14:45.790 --> 01:14:51.110
In the original interpretation,
Peter is Petrosh.

01:14:51.570 --> 01:14:56.350
That's a little pebble, a little piece of
rock, a little rolling stone, a river

01:14:56.350 --> 01:14:56.790
pebble.

01:14:57.450 --> 01:15:01.470
The word rock is Petra in the original
Greek.

01:15:02.170 --> 01:15:07.350
And the sentence says, as thou art a
little rolling stone and a pebble

01:15:07.350 --> 01:15:12.570
signifying some of the characteristics of
the rock, even though you are one of the

01:15:12.570 --> 01:15:17.250
strongest apostles of all time,
even though that's the case, you are a

01:15:17.250 --> 01:15:22.790
little rolling stone, upon the rock,
the Petra, I will build my church.

01:15:22.790 --> 01:15:24.990
And who's the Petra in the rest of the
Bible?

01:15:25.390 --> 01:15:26.230
Jesus Christ.

01:15:27.250 --> 01:15:32.610
So today, we get images like this where
Benedict is reaffirming, constantly

01:15:32.610 --> 01:15:34.370
reaffirming the authority.

01:15:34.690 --> 01:15:39.970
He says in Catholic Online, he says,
Jesus made St. Peter the rock.

01:15:40.270 --> 01:15:41.110
Well, that's not true.

01:15:42.150 --> 01:15:46.090
Peter the rock, this is brand new,
June 7, 2006.

01:15:46.590 --> 01:15:49.730
The three metaphors to which Jesus takes
recourse are very clear.

01:15:50.050 --> 01:15:51.010
Peter will be the rock.

01:15:51.410 --> 01:15:52.970
Number two, he will have the keys.

01:15:53.130 --> 01:15:55.330
And number three, he will be able to bind
or loose.

01:15:55.390 --> 01:15:57.990
In other words, he's got the ability to
forgive your sins.

01:15:58.390 --> 01:16:00.210
Well, that's not actually biblical.

01:16:00.870 --> 01:16:06.490
For all times, Benedict says, Peter must
be the custodian of the communion with

01:16:06.490 --> 01:16:06.930
Christ.

01:16:07.890 --> 01:16:14.010
That's the marketing that they put out to
the public, the people on the ground.

01:16:14.670 --> 01:16:17.790
But this is a beast that speaks out of
both sides of the mouth.

01:16:18.470 --> 01:16:21.690
Vickers of Christ, De Rosa, page 206,
says the following.

01:16:22.510 --> 01:16:26.910
They've just said that there's a Patrine
office that takes control.

01:16:27.330 --> 01:16:28.110
Read this with me.

01:16:28.830 --> 01:16:33.630
Not a single father can find any hint of a
Patrine office in the great biblical texts

01:16:33.630 --> 01:16:34.570
that refer to Peter.

01:16:35.390 --> 01:16:39.190
Papal supremacy and infallibility,
so central to the Catholic Church today,

01:16:39.450 --> 01:16:41.710
are simply not mentioned.

01:16:42.010 --> 01:16:45.430
Not a single creed, nor confession of
faith, nor catechism, nor passage in

01:16:45.430 --> 01:16:48.510
patristic writings contains one syllable
about the Pope.

01:16:48.930 --> 01:16:52.810
It's still less about faith and the
doctrine being derived from him.

01:16:53.490 --> 01:16:58.230
This is a beast that understands that they
know what they're doing, but yet the

01:16:58.230 --> 01:17:03.730
entire Antichrist deception hangs on one
tiny little hook.

01:17:04.390 --> 01:17:05.890
Matthew 16, verse 18.

01:17:06.170 --> 01:17:12.050
I tell you, this is from the Good News
Bible, I tell you, Peter, you are a rock,

01:17:12.110 --> 01:17:14.550
and upon this rock foundation I will build
my church.

01:17:15.370 --> 01:17:21.210
And through this revelation 12.9 says,
and Satan deceives the whole world.

01:17:22.690 --> 01:17:24.410
This is a shocking revelation.

01:17:26.450 --> 01:17:29.410
There is no way for me to soften this
information.

01:17:30.050 --> 01:17:38.470
I cannot be affected, or allow myself to
be affected by what do my emotions tell me

01:17:38.470 --> 01:17:39.030
about this.

01:17:39.730 --> 01:17:45.410
I was deceived my entire life about this
until somebody had the guts to come and

01:17:45.410 --> 01:17:47.990
tell me, well, this is actually what the
Bible says.

01:17:48.890 --> 01:17:50.570
This is a shocking revelation.

01:17:51.590 --> 01:17:57.810
But please understand, God loves every
person, but he hates some of the systems.

01:17:58.950 --> 01:18:04.570
Just like we heard about the seals,
and when we spoke about Christ from

01:18:04.570 --> 01:18:08.710
Ephesus, the church of Ephesus,
from the beginning when Christ was here to

01:18:08.710 --> 01:18:16.230
100, where Jesus said that I also hate the
practices of the Nicolaitans, he also says

01:18:16.230 --> 01:18:24.190
in Revelation 18, verse 4, come out of her
my people, that you are not a partaker of

01:18:24.190 --> 01:18:26.110
her sins, and you receive not of her
plagues.

01:18:26.970 --> 01:18:31.910
This is a call where Jesus loves you as an
individual, but hates the systems in which

01:18:31.910 --> 01:18:33.010
we might find ourselves.

01:18:34.850 --> 01:18:42.170
Take this understanding, chew on it,
and realize that God might be calling you

01:18:42.170 --> 01:18:45.010
out of a false system of worship.

01:18:46.270 --> 01:18:50.930
From here onwards, we are going to get
into even more serious information.

01:18:51.670 --> 01:18:54.410
The next lecture being the seat of the
dragon.

01:18:55.450 --> 01:18:58.430
I hope you'll come back and join me for
the next lecture.

01:18:58.710 --> 01:18:58.870
Thank you.
