WEBVTT 00:25.830 --> 00:27.030 Good morning. 00:27.210 --> 00:28.790 Welcome to Inquisition Update. 00:29.130 --> 00:31.910 My name's Tom Friess and I'll be your host for the next hour. 00:32.170 --> 00:34.810 You're listening to FirstAmendmentRadio .com. 00:35.310 --> 00:39.090 We're going to continue our reading and discussion of the book, A Woman Rides the 00:39.090 --> 00:40.270 Beast, by Dave Hunt. 00:40.410 --> 00:47.470 Yesterday we were talking about Dave's description of how absurd it is for Bible 00:47.470 --> 00:52.070 critics to assert that the prophecies were written after the fact. 00:54.030 --> 01:02.430 And, literally, no honest man would make such an assertion unless he were willfully 01:02.430 --> 01:03.650 blind to the truth. 01:04.390 --> 01:10.550 Now, reading the last paragraph that we read on the program yesterday, 01:10.890 --> 01:14.410 for continuity purposes, it says, Between the writings of the Old and New 01:14.410 --> 01:19.910 Testaments, there were four centuries of silence before God spoke again through His 01:19.910 --> 01:20.310 prophets. 01:21.010 --> 01:25.250 And not until we come to the book of Revelation, chapter 12, and verse 3, 01:25.370 --> 01:30.830 do we see Daniel's fourth beast again, this time without any reference to the 01:30.830 --> 01:33.770 other three, which will be seen no more. 01:34.630 --> 01:40.190 That's right, the Medo-Persian, the Babylonian, and the Greek empires are 01:40.190 --> 01:45.150 figments of history, although they form the foundation of the fourth beast, 01:45.670 --> 01:50.670 the fourth beast being just a continuation, the Roman Empire being just 01:50.670 --> 01:55.690 a continuation of the previous three, the other three will be seen no more. 01:55.830 --> 02:00.730 And he says, furthermore, from this point onward, the fourth beast is seen only in 02:00.730 --> 02:02.850 its future, revived form. 02:04.310 --> 02:09.630 Now, beginning where we left off yesterday, Dave Hunt is going to talk 02:09.630 --> 02:11.530 about the dragon, Satan himself. 02:12.390 --> 02:18.310 He says, as the prophecy unfolds, Daniel's fourth beast appears to John as, 02:18.410 --> 02:26.250 quote, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns upon 02:26.250 --> 02:27.870 his heads, unquote. 02:28.090 --> 02:30.950 See Revelation, chapter 12, and verse 3. 02:31.990 --> 02:32.970 This is Satan. 02:33.950 --> 02:38.790 For a few verses later, we are shown a future, quote, war in heaven. 02:39.440 --> 02:44.270 The archangel Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the great 02:44.270 --> 02:49.690 dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the devil and Satan, which 02:49.690 --> 02:53.330 deceiveth the whole world, verses 7 and 9. 02:53.870 --> 02:55.870 The interpretation is clear. 02:56.690 --> 03:02.450 The revived fourth world empire, under Antichrist, will be so utterly evil 03:02.450 --> 03:05.290 that it is seen as Satan himself. 03:07.430 --> 03:13.550 The Roman Empire, and I'll be explicit in my description of it, it's the Holy Roman 03:13.550 --> 03:20.230 Empire, which has been fully rebuilt upon the earth, having once apparently been 03:20.230 --> 03:25.830 destroyed by the Protestant Reformation, it is now in full bloom again. 03:27.210 --> 03:30.730 A spiritual leader in the world, a temporal leader in the world, 03:30.990 --> 03:32.730 and king of kings and lord of lords. 03:32.790 --> 03:34.510 That's what the papacy is today. 03:35.550 --> 03:43.450 And he says, you know, and this is why I make reference to the papacy as the 03:43.450 --> 03:50.270 Antichrist, the man of sin and the son of perdition, the one who exalts himself 03:50.270 --> 03:54.290 above the stars of God, and says that he is God. 03:55.170 --> 03:56.250 That's the papacy. 03:56.530 --> 04:02.150 And we've confirmed that by reading those very words in papal encyclicals and papal 04:02.150 --> 04:03.330 bulls of the past. 04:03.330 --> 04:07.630 The popes demand to be worshipped as God on the earth. 04:08.570 --> 04:15.750 One encyclical declared the papacy as Jesus Christ himself under a veil of 04:15.750 --> 04:16.290 flesh. 04:18.470 --> 04:22.610 So, while Dave Hunt may be a little bit confused about who Antichrist is, 04:22.710 --> 04:26.870 we here at Inquisition Update are completely convinced it's the papacy and 04:26.870 --> 04:27.590 no one else. 04:28.410 --> 04:33.450 It says, the interpretation is clear, the revived fourth world empire, 04:33.610 --> 04:40.290 the Holy Roman Empire, under Antichrist, that is under the popes, will be so 04:40.290 --> 04:44.210 utterly evil that it is seen as Satan himself. 04:45.470 --> 04:50.170 Okay, the manifestation of Satan on the earth is the papacy. 04:53.470 --> 04:59.950 I've said it another way, that the papacy, that Satan being a spirit without a 04:59.950 --> 05:09.530 physical body, has sought a human surrogate to indwell, and through whom he 05:09.530 --> 05:13.390 will assert God's status in the world. 05:14.150 --> 05:17.910 In fulfillment of Isaiah chapter 14, verses 12-14. 05:18.590 --> 05:21.190 And that human agency is the papacy. 05:22.190 --> 05:28.170 Always has been, it still is, and it always will be until Christ comes to 05:28.170 --> 05:28.850 destroy him. 05:30.290 --> 05:35.870 And he says, what horror lies ahead for this world after Christ has taken his own 05:35.870 --> 05:38.950 to his father's house in the rapture. 05:38.950 --> 05:48.090 Now here is David's futurism, surfacing once again, and I simply tell my 05:48.090 --> 05:51.330 listeners, there is only one last trump. 05:52.550 --> 05:53.690 That's the resurrection. 05:55.410 --> 05:59.070 Okay, and I don't call it a rapture, I don't confuse the two. 05:59.590 --> 06:03.530 The word rapture is never mentioned in scripture, it's never used. 06:04.310 --> 06:09.130 The Bible does talk about a resurrection, and that's where it lies. 06:10.150 --> 06:15.330 The idea of a secret rapture came from the power court meetings, and from the 06:15.330 --> 06:22.550 meetings of the Presbyterian leader, whose name escapes me at the moment, 06:22.650 --> 06:28.790 right after the publishing of the Jesuit books by Ribera and Lacunsa. 06:29.790 --> 06:35.210 And they were from ecstatic utterances of a woman who indicated, through her 06:35.210 --> 06:39.810 ecstatic utterance, that there would be this secret catching away. 06:41.310 --> 06:48.330 And we read the book Dispensational Futurism and its entry into Protestant 06:48.330 --> 06:55.590 Christianity, and it completely reveals the origin of this Jesuit-inspired lie 06:55.590 --> 06:57.250 called the rapture of the church. 06:57.250 --> 07:00.510 It's simply not taught in the scriptures. 07:02.090 --> 07:07.450 This came by direct revelation to a woman who had been influenced by Jesuit 07:07.450 --> 07:08.030 writings. 07:10.030 --> 07:11.990 And we've dispelled it. 07:12.970 --> 07:20.150 And I can only be so hard on Dave Hunt, because I believe the same lie for 50 07:20.150 --> 07:21.130 years of my life. 07:21.910 --> 07:24.130 And I see clearly the truth now. 07:24.550 --> 07:28.150 And I only wish Dave was still alive so I could discuss it with him, not that he'd 07:28.150 --> 07:28.890 listen to me. 07:29.890 --> 07:32.230 But I'd sure like to give it a shot. 07:34.950 --> 07:44.170 Anyway, the same fourth beast is seen again in chapter 13, verse 1, rising up 07:44.170 --> 07:45.070 out of the sea. 07:45.390 --> 07:46.990 I call this the sea beast. 07:47.850 --> 07:52.710 Remember, the sea representing peoples and nations and tongues and kindreds? 07:53.230 --> 07:55.690 That's the populated area of the world. 07:56.450 --> 07:59.470 And the beast rose up out of the sea. 07:59.690 --> 08:05.210 The Antichrist, the papacy, rose up out of the populated area of the world, 08:05.350 --> 08:05.570 Europe. 08:06.710 --> 08:11.090 And that's where prophecy expected him to rise, and that's where he did rise. 08:11.190 --> 08:12.590 Fulfillment of Bible prophecy. 08:13.850 --> 08:19.950 Now, again, he says the same fourth beast is seen again in chapter 13, rising up out 08:19.950 --> 08:26.670 of the sea, as all four beasts did in Daniel chapter 7, verse 3. 08:27.650 --> 08:33.310 Here again, it has the telltale, quote, seven heads and ten horns, 08:33.490 --> 08:33.930 unquote. 08:34.290 --> 08:42.030 But now, with, quote, ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy, 08:42.390 --> 08:42.750 unquote. 08:43.530 --> 08:50.790 The beast is described in the next verse as, quote, like a leopard, like a bear, 08:50.990 --> 08:52.750 and like a lion, unquote. 08:52.750 --> 08:57.990 So although the other three beasts no longer appear, we're not allowed to forget 08:57.990 --> 09:03.570 their continuity that existed between the revived Roman Empire and the three world 09:03.570 --> 09:06.610 empires which preceded it all the way back to Babylon. 09:07.870 --> 09:11.970 Remember, the beast represents these three previous world empires. 09:13.730 --> 09:20.890 The beasts representing these three previous world empires were described as 09:20.890 --> 09:23.770 like a leopard, and a lion, and a bear. 09:23.930 --> 09:26.550 See Daniel chapter 7, verse 4 through 6. 09:27.210 --> 09:34.190 So, as I said before, these three previous world empires, the Babylonian, 09:34.290 --> 09:39.350 the Medo-Persian, and the Grecian, literally formed the foundation for the 09:39.350 --> 09:45.390 fourth and final beast to rule the world, that is, the Roman Empire. 09:47.630 --> 09:54.990 Now, in Revelation 13, the fourth beast clearly depicts both the revived Roman 09:54.990 --> 10:01.330 Empire and Antichrist, whom, quote, all that dwell upon the earth shall 10:01.330 --> 10:02.810 worship, unquote. 10:02.990 --> 10:03.950 See verse 8. 10:03.950 --> 10:11.090 In this remarkable vision of the future, the world also, quote, worships the dragon 10:11.090 --> 10:13.910 which gave power unto the beast, unquote. 10:14.010 --> 10:17.710 Now, isn't that Satan's manifest destiny? 10:18.230 --> 10:24.010 To ultimately get the whole world to worship him, through his vicar, 10:24.990 --> 10:26.330 through his papacy? 10:26.970 --> 10:33.010 It's all about worshiping Satan, and that's clearly what is happening. 10:33.010 --> 10:40.530 And even the Jesuit priest Malachi Martin, or Malachi Martin, if that's the correct 10:40.530 --> 10:44.790 way to pronounce his name, admits that the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church 10:44.790 --> 10:45.710 worshiped Satan. 10:47.330 --> 10:50.970 And it eventually got him destroyed. 10:51.930 --> 10:55.130 Yes, I believe Malachi Martin was a victim of the papacy. 10:55.270 --> 11:00.170 He was exposing too much truth about the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church. 11:00.170 --> 11:02.630 It is a satanic church. 11:02.730 --> 11:04.390 I call it the synagogue of Satan. 11:05.670 --> 11:08.250 And the whole world should know it. 11:09.090 --> 11:13.890 And should suspect any influence that the Vatican has in the governments of the 11:13.890 --> 11:14.170 world. 11:14.950 --> 11:20.490 And we should see the system that is unfolding through our government. 11:21.290 --> 11:27.030 This tyrannical new attitude toward the people of the United States could be 11:27.030 --> 11:31.310 characterized as Satan giving control of the government through the papacy. 11:31.850 --> 11:37.430 He says in Revelation chapter 13, the fourth beast clearly depicts both the 11:37.430 --> 11:45.090 revived Roman Empire and Antichrist, the papacy, whom, quote, all that dwell 11:45.090 --> 11:46.870 upon the earth shall worship. 11:47.510 --> 11:49.730 And of course we know worship means obedience. 11:50.650 --> 11:54.090 The most pristine form of worship there is, is obedience. 11:54.090 --> 12:02.770 There is no need for ritual or any other so-called religious activity if we believe 12:02.770 --> 12:03.530 and obey. 12:04.130 --> 12:06.190 That's all God ever asked of His people. 12:06.810 --> 12:09.030 Just like our natural fathers. 12:09.910 --> 12:13.170 We are required to believe our fathers and to obey our fathers. 12:13.310 --> 12:17.470 And if we don't believe them and we don't obey them, we expect punishment. 12:18.370 --> 12:21.830 Our God in heaven is no different than our natural fathers. 12:21.830 --> 12:23.570 Only He is holy. 12:24.590 --> 12:26.610 He's incapable of error. 12:27.570 --> 12:32.790 And we can trust Him implicitly and we are to work diligently to understand Him, 12:33.670 --> 12:36.610 to believe Him and to obey Him. 12:37.390 --> 12:39.650 That is the pristine form of worship. 12:40.570 --> 12:46.670 The Pope, or rather Satan, through his vicar, the Pope, expects the same thing. 12:47.430 --> 12:52.370 Now, in this remarkable vision of the future, the world also, quote, 12:52.930 --> 12:57.570 worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast. 12:58.090 --> 12:59.110 So there you have it. 12:59.230 --> 13:05.490 Satan, the dragon, gave the Pope his power and seat and great authority. 13:06.130 --> 13:09.470 Not Jesus Christ, Satan himself. 13:10.210 --> 13:17.030 And when I see the papacy on television or read newspaper articles about him, 13:17.490 --> 13:20.110 I see in him Satan himself. 13:20.530 --> 13:22.630 Because that's who powers him. 13:23.390 --> 13:25.670 That's who guides him and controls him. 13:26.490 --> 13:30.970 And when I see his influence in our government and control of our government 13:31.470 --> 13:37.650 and passing laws, Roman Catholic canon law, through our government, I see it as 13:37.650 --> 13:40.650 Satan's direct influence in our government. 13:41.390 --> 13:42.870 And what is Satan's desire? 13:43.630 --> 13:47.150 To destroy all of God's people, God's true people. 13:47.770 --> 13:51.310 And what have we seen through the papacy all throughout its history? 13:51.730 --> 13:57.510 The destruction of God's true, Bible-believing, obedient people. 13:58.170 --> 14:01.370 And it's going to happen right here in the United States again. 14:01.990 --> 14:04.230 History is going to repeat itself again. 14:04.230 --> 14:09.650 And there's no excuse for Americans to be ignorant about what's happening to the 14:09.650 --> 14:11.030 United States of America. 14:11.930 --> 14:16.850 Dave Hunt continues, he says, So Satan is again shown to be the power behind 14:16.850 --> 14:18.390 Antichrist and his kingdom. 14:19.290 --> 14:25.030 Quote, the dragon, Satan, gave him, Antichrist, and I will add the word, 14:25.190 --> 14:29.050 the Pope, his power and seat and great authority. 14:29.190 --> 14:34.450 Verse 2 During his temptation in the wilderness, Christ was shown by Satan, 14:34.750 --> 14:39.090 quote, all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them, unquote. 14:39.250 --> 14:41.130 See Matthew chapter 4, verse 8. 14:41.790 --> 14:47.750 The devil then offered it all to Christ, saying, quote, all these things will I 14:47.750 --> 14:51.250 give thee if thou will fall down and worship me. 14:51.490 --> 14:57.070 Verse 9 The love of the world and the lust for power ultimately lead to partnership 14:57.070 --> 14:59.150 with Satan and his worship. 14:59.150 --> 15:02.750 Of course, Christ refused Satan. 15:03.610 --> 15:03.890 Why? 15:04.070 --> 15:07.390 Because Christ is going to bring us a heavenly kingdom. 15:07.770 --> 15:09.030 Not an earthly one. 15:09.930 --> 15:11.310 That's for someone else. 15:12.030 --> 15:16.650 The earthly one is going to be picked up by someone else. 15:17.430 --> 15:18.350 The papacy. 15:18.810 --> 15:24.770 That same offer was granted to the papacy and the papacy is clutching it with both 15:24.770 --> 15:25.210 hands. 15:26.150 --> 15:26.430 Alright? 15:26.430 --> 15:29.630 See all the glory of the nations. 15:30.430 --> 15:34.150 I will give them to you if you will just bow down and worship me. 15:34.590 --> 15:36.810 And that's what the papacy does. 15:37.710 --> 15:41.430 Though he calls himself the vicar of Christ, he is none of his. 15:42.250 --> 15:44.790 He is the vicar of Satan himself. 15:45.750 --> 15:50.010 Now, the love of the world and the lust for power ultimately lead to partnership 15:50.010 --> 15:51.910 with Satan and his worship. 15:52.710 --> 15:54.790 Of course, Christ refused Satan. 15:54.790 --> 16:01.030 Tragically, a persecution weary church would fall for the same offer when it 16:01.030 --> 16:03.150 would later be made through Constantine. 16:03.610 --> 16:06.450 Now, I disagree again with Dave Hunt. 16:07.230 --> 16:11.930 The true believers of Jesus Christ, though they were persecution weary, 16:12.330 --> 16:13.990 they never succumbed. 16:14.010 --> 16:17.050 Not true believers ever succumbed to the papacy. 16:17.790 --> 16:23.250 I may stand corrected in history, but there was a great falling away, 16:23.370 --> 16:24.250 no doubt about it. 16:24.250 --> 16:26.490 But that's when they ceased to be God's people. 16:27.450 --> 16:31.390 Now, Christ did not dispute Satan's claim to ownership of the world. 16:31.950 --> 16:37.170 Quote, for that is delivered unto me, and to whomsoever I will give it. 16:37.370 --> 16:39.390 See Luke chapter 4 verse 6. 16:40.350 --> 16:45.110 As John reminds us, quote, the whole world lieth in wickedness. 16:45.630 --> 16:50.450 And it might just as well be read, the whole world lieth in the hands of the 16:50.450 --> 16:52.430 wicked one, Satan. 16:52.430 --> 16:57.510 See verse 18 and 2 Thessalonians 2 verse 8. 16:58.330 --> 17:02.150 And also 1 John chapter 5 verse 19. 17:02.770 --> 17:10.030 It is Satan, permitted by God for his own purposes, who delivers the antichrist the 17:10.030 --> 17:12.310 world which Christ refused. 17:13.250 --> 17:18.870 So that offer that Christ rejected has been accepted by the papacy. 17:18.870 --> 17:22.970 And the papacy fulfills the office of antichrist. 17:23.790 --> 17:25.870 The man of sin, the son of perdition. 17:26.790 --> 17:33.050 Now Dave Hunt believes that the antichrist doesn't come until the last seven years 17:33.050 --> 17:34.230 before Christ's return. 17:34.370 --> 17:34.990 He's deceived. 17:35.170 --> 17:38.710 The papacy always has been the antichrist of the scriptures. 17:39.770 --> 17:42.250 That's what the protestant reformers believed. 17:43.000 --> 17:49.650 And because the popular teaching of a future antichrist has so overwhelmed the 17:49.650 --> 17:56.450 protestant reformation, so much as to lay it waste, the whole world is deceived and 17:56.450 --> 18:00.490 doesn't see the papacy for the antichrist that it is. 18:00.790 --> 18:05.690 And that's why they don't investigate, nor do they suspect that the papacy is in 18:05.690 --> 18:07.910 control of our government and always has been. 18:07.910 --> 18:14.210 And were they ever to awaken to the protestant reality that the papacy was, 18:14.350 --> 18:19.790 is, and always will be the antichrist, then we might have a chance to restore 18:19.790 --> 18:22.330 protestantism in this country. 18:22.770 --> 18:24.910 And to restore a protestant form of government. 18:25.830 --> 18:27.170 And to regain our liberties. 18:28.130 --> 18:29.590 But that's not going to happen. 18:29.590 --> 18:34.930 Because futurism has completely contaminated the protestant faith so much 18:34.930 --> 18:39.350 so that they have literally repudiated the protestant reformation. 18:40.230 --> 18:44.810 And they've become ecumenical as a result and want to reunite with the Roman 18:44.810 --> 18:45.590 Catholic Church. 18:46.050 --> 18:49.010 And reunite with all the other pagan religions of the world. 18:49.950 --> 18:53.590 This is what we get for forgetting our protestant roots and what the protestant 18:53.590 --> 18:54.530 reformers taught. 18:55.110 --> 18:56.850 Dave Hunt was part of that deception. 18:56.850 --> 19:05.090 As sad as it saddens me to say so, he believed the same lies that have 19:05.090 --> 19:06.830 deceived the whole protestant world. 19:07.690 --> 19:10.050 Now he talks about the coming world religion. 19:11.070 --> 19:17.230 You know, once the protestant reformation has been repudiated by protestants 19:17.230 --> 19:22.690 themselves, now the papacy is free to reorganize all the Christian world. 19:23.530 --> 19:25.350 And that's exactly what's happening. 19:25.350 --> 19:32.790 He says, an image will be made of the beast and all who do not bow down and 19:32.790 --> 19:38.690 worship it, and through it the Antichrist as God will be slain. 19:38.930 --> 19:41.190 Revelation chapter 13 verse 15. 19:42.130 --> 19:44.630 Such was the practice in ancient Roman Empire. 19:45.390 --> 19:51.210 We are thus being told that the religion of Rome with its emperor worship will be 19:51.210 --> 19:52.370 revived as well. 19:52.370 --> 19:58.650 Religion must, in fact, not only be involved in Antichrist's new world order, 19:58.950 --> 20:00.710 but it must be preeminent. 20:01.550 --> 20:07.550 For Satan, who controls both Antichrist and the revived Roman Empire, is the God 20:07.550 --> 20:08.310 of this world. 20:08.510 --> 20:10.970 See 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 verse 4. 20:11.550 --> 20:14.470 And desires its worship with a passion. 20:15.090 --> 20:21.290 A woman who rides the beast in Revelation chapter 17 undoubtedly represents that 20:21.290 --> 20:23.950 world religion as we shall see. 20:24.790 --> 20:29.310 Religion was always the dominant element in ancient world empires. 20:29.990 --> 20:34.490 Including the four depicted by Nebuchadnezzar's image and Daniel's four 20:34.490 --> 20:35.050 beasts. 20:35.050 --> 20:42.670 Priests, soothsayers, sorcerers, and I will add the word magi's were the 20:42.670 --> 20:47.590 closest advisors to rulers for centuries of years. 20:48.110 --> 20:52.210 And in most instances were the real power behind the throne. 20:52.830 --> 20:58.310 Manipulating sovereigns by their quote unquote magic and devious counsel. 20:59.150 --> 21:01.670 Science itself had its roots in the occult. 21:02.130 --> 21:04.370 Beginning in astrology and alchemy. 21:05.390 --> 21:09.990 Materialism, skepticism, and atheism are of fairly recent origin. 21:10.610 --> 21:15.350 And will be submerged in the tidal wave of renewed interest in quote unquote 21:15.350 --> 21:16.250 spirituality. 21:17.210 --> 21:22.270 Which is already gathering momentum exactly as Jesus foretold for the last 21:22.270 --> 21:22.810 days. 21:23.410 --> 21:28.010 See Matthew chapter 24 verses 4, 5, 11, and 24. 21:29.010 --> 21:30.130 Excuse me. 21:31.190 --> 21:38.410 Atheism is not Satan's major weapon in his campaign to deceive mankind into following 21:38.410 --> 21:38.710 him. 21:39.590 --> 21:41.830 He himself is not an atheist. 21:42.050 --> 21:47.350 For his great ambition, quote, I will be like the Most High. 21:47.630 --> 21:49.930 In other words, I will be like God. 21:50.390 --> 21:52.710 Isaiah chapter 14 verse 14. 21:53.290 --> 21:56.490 That statement itself acknowledges God's existence. 21:57.230 --> 21:59.930 Satan wants to be worshipped as God. 22:00.630 --> 22:04.770 But since he is a non-physical being without a body of his own. 22:05.290 --> 22:09.350 He will have to be satisfied in receiving his worship through a man. 22:09.930 --> 22:13.850 A human agent who represents him. 22:14.450 --> 22:15.830 The Antichrist. 22:16.390 --> 22:19.130 And I will add the word, the Papacy. 22:19.710 --> 22:25.550 As the God of this world, Satan's weapon is false religion. 22:25.550 --> 22:29.570 And the deceitful promises they present. 22:30.450 --> 22:34.730 Which turn aside those who believe them from knowing God's truth. 22:35.610 --> 22:39.650 The fact that religion will play a dominant role in the revived Roman Empire. 22:39.950 --> 22:41.430 As in ancient times. 22:41.850 --> 22:46.390 Is clearly portrayed by the fact that the woman who represents the new world 22:46.390 --> 22:46.930 religion. 22:47.430 --> 22:50.570 Has mounted the beast and is holding the reins. 22:50.570 --> 22:57.390 He is speaking specifically of that vision shown us in Revelation chapter 17. 22:57.670 --> 22:59.170 The woman riding the beast. 23:00.410 --> 23:04.650 Now he is going to talk about satanic resurrection. 23:06.550 --> 23:10.950 It says in the future unfolding of the revelation of the fourth beast. 23:11.110 --> 23:16.330 John saw, quote, one of his heads as it were, wounded to death. 23:17.010 --> 23:18.850 And his deadly wound was healed. 23:18.850 --> 23:21.970 And all the world wondered after the beast. 23:22.630 --> 23:24.190 Revelation 13, 3. 23:24.770 --> 23:27.790 And we will continue with this line of thinking when we turn for the break. 23:28.170 --> 23:31.710 You are listening to Inquisition Update on

When it comes to prophecy today, much of the evangelical Christian world 24:24.600 --> 24:29.180 has their eyes on Israel, waiting and watching to see when the third temple will 24:29.180 --> 24:30.020 begin to be built. 24:30.700 --> 24:31.760 The plans are drawn. 24:31.900 --> 24:33.180 The Jewish people are eager. 24:33.180 --> 24:37.540 Most evangelical Christians today believe that the rapture will happen before the 24:37.540 --> 24:38.520 third temple is built. 24:38.840 --> 24:40.480 Hi, I'm Michael Eugene. 24:41.040 --> 24:43.680 I was taught that Daniel's 70th week was in the future. 24:44.300 --> 24:45.960 Is that really what the Bible teaches? 24:46.600 --> 24:49.520 Have we searched the scriptures and found this to be true? 24:50.240 --> 24:53.860 Why is it so important for a re-established Israel to build a third 24:53.860 --> 24:54.700 temple in Jerusalem? 24:55.240 --> 24:59.940 Is it necessary to build a temple on the same location already occupied by the Dome 24:59.940 --> 25:00.600 of the Rocks? 25:00.600 --> 25:05.000 Is it necessary for sacrifices to take place in the temple on Temple Mount? 25:05.740 --> 25:08.800 Is there really a rapture followed by seven years of tribulation? 25:09.620 --> 25:11.060 What is the New Testament temple? 25:11.860 --> 25:14.020 Can we identify history and prophecy? 25:14.800 --> 25:17.780 Who is the first beast in Revelation chapter 13? 25:18.420 --> 25:21.020 Who are the seven kings in Revelation 17? 25:21.700 --> 25:25.380 I have asked all these questions and I have found Nicholas Arthur's new book, 25:25.380 --> 25:30.220 When the Third Temple is Built, answers all these questions and more using 25:30.220 --> 25:31.840 Scripture to interpret Scripture. 25:32.520 --> 25:35.940 The Bible says that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private 25:35.940 --> 25:36.680 interpretation. 25:37.520 --> 25:40.360 Nicholas shows us in his new book, When the Third Temple is Built, 25:40.840 --> 25:45.020

Dave Hunt. 27:01.040 --> 27:07.600 He says, in the further unfolding of the revelation of the fourth beast, 27:08.160 --> 27:14.600 John saw, quote, one of his heads, as it were, wounded to death, and his 27:14.600 --> 27:16.000 deadly wound was healed. 27:16.640 --> 27:19.120 And all the world wondered after the beast. 27:19.620 --> 27:22.260 See Revelation chapter 13, verse 3. 27:23.000 --> 27:27.300 Now there's many dispute how this was fulfilled in history. 27:27.300 --> 27:35.060 Some say that the old Roman Empire died and was resurrected under the Holy Roman 27:35.060 --> 27:35.540 Empire. 27:35.840 --> 27:36.880 That has merit. 27:37.480 --> 27:44.240 But nonetheless, the Bible says one of its kings would receive what appeared to be a 27:44.240 --> 27:44.940 mortal wound. 27:45.700 --> 27:49.420 And I believe the literal fulfillment of this, the biblical fulfillment of this, 27:49.880 --> 27:54.700 was as a result of the Protestant Reformation, the French Revolution, 27:54.700 --> 28:00.480 which the sentiments of all Europe were set against the papacy, because of the 28:00.480 --> 28:04.360 Protestant Reformation and the reality that the Pope was the literal antichrist 28:04.360 --> 28:05.020 of the scripture. 28:06.000 --> 28:12.280 During the French Revolution, Napoleon's general, Berthier, broke through the walls 28:12.280 --> 28:18.140 of the Vatican and captured the papacy and took him into prison where he died. 28:19.120 --> 28:23.260 And it's also believed that this was the fulfillment of the prophecy that says that 28:23.260 --> 28:26.520 he who lives by the sword shall perish by the sword. 28:27.240 --> 28:32.100 Now the papacy had wielded the sword against God's people for hundreds of 28:32.100 --> 28:39.260 years, hundreds and hundreds of years, and literally soaked Europe with the blood 28:39.260 --> 28:45.400 of the saints and the prophets and all the slain of true Bible Christianity. 28:46.660 --> 28:50.120 And that's when the papacy received its mortal wound. 28:50.120 --> 28:56.100 It appeared to have been completely destroyed, but it exists today. 28:56.440 --> 29:01.500 So the wound was not mortal, and the papacy has regained all the strength that 29:01.500 --> 29:04.060 it ever had before the Protestant Reformation. 29:04.740 --> 29:11.500 Because of futurism and the belief that antichrist is in the future and it is not 29:11.500 --> 29:16.920 the papacy, the world has allowed the regrowth of the papacy to the current 29:16.920 --> 29:18.600 status that it has today. 29:18.600 --> 29:23.560 Were it not for futurism, there would still be opposition in the world from 29:23.560 --> 29:27.360 Protestants protesting the Antichrist, the Pope of Rome. 29:27.820 --> 29:31.500 But because of futurism, we now have ecumenism. 29:32.420 --> 29:37.020 And the papacy is stronger now than he ever was in the past. 29:37.120 --> 29:43.220 He embraces not only everything that is known as Christendom, but he also embraces 29:43.220 --> 29:45.360 all the other pagan religions of the world. 29:45.360 --> 29:53.080 He literally has controlling interest and power in all the nations of the world. 29:53.900 --> 29:58.180 The world is accepting the papacy now as the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. 29:58.360 --> 30:01.460 That's what this new world order is all about. 30:02.000 --> 30:06.480 It's simply the reestablishment of the old world order on a global scale. 30:07.580 --> 30:12.360 The papacy claims the earth is mine and the fullness thereof, and he will not stop 30:12.360 --> 30:16.800 until he rules every man, woman, and child on the planet, and he rules them 30:16.800 --> 30:21.520 through the governments of every nation, who are subservient to the papacy. 30:22.420 --> 30:29.100 When General Berthier of Napoleon's army captured the papacy and took him into 30:29.100 --> 30:34.780 prison, the papacy was literally without a head. 30:35.260 --> 30:36.420 Without a head. 30:36.800 --> 30:38.980 There was no head for the Roman Catholic Church. 30:38.980 --> 30:43.040 It is taught in Roman Catholic canon law that he is the church. 30:44.100 --> 30:52.400 And the papacy vastly just lived in like a prisoner in the Vatican. 30:53.380 --> 30:56.740 That when they elected a new pope, he had no power. 30:57.560 --> 31:01.420 All he could do was control the Vatican proper. 31:02.320 --> 31:03.900 The so-called Holy City. 31:04.080 --> 31:05.640 The so-called Eternal City. 31:06.000 --> 31:07.140 A hundred and eight acres. 31:07.640 --> 31:08.380 Imagine that. 31:09.040 --> 31:15.560 And it wasn't until 1929 at the Lateran Accords by Mussolini, who gave the papacy 31:15.560 --> 31:18.860 back his kingly status in the world. 31:19.680 --> 31:22.240 And that was even reported in the newspapers. 31:22.660 --> 31:26.700 The San Francisco Chronicle, I believe it said, the deadly wound is healed. 31:27.580 --> 31:31.900 Now, if this wasn't the literal fulfillment of the prophecy of Daniel, 31:32.000 --> 31:33.020 I don't know what is. 31:34.060 --> 31:41.040 But nonetheless, since 1929, in a very short span of time, the papacy has 31:41.040 --> 31:44.780 regained all the strength it lost as a result of the Protestant Reformation. 31:45.680 --> 31:46.520 And then some. 31:47.400 --> 31:52.180 Now, Dave Hunt continues, he says, To many interpreters, this vision means 31:52.180 --> 31:55.720 that the Antichrist himself will be killed and raised to life again. 31:56.640 --> 32:01.320 Others believe that an Antichrist figure from the past, such as Hitler or Nero, 32:01.320 --> 32:05.340 will come back to life and rule the new world order. 32:06.120 --> 32:12.520 On the contrary, neither a past evil ruler nor the future Antichrist will come back 32:12.520 --> 32:16.880 from the grave, because Satan does not have the power to create life. 32:17.400 --> 32:18.660 And I agree with that. 32:19.400 --> 32:25.400 But we have one example whereby Satan may once again deceive the people of the 32:25.400 --> 32:28.880 world, and that's the example of the witch at Endor. 32:29.720 --> 32:32.800 And I'll leave it to my listeners to read that for themselves. 32:35.260 --> 32:40.680 Now, he says, This does not eliminate the possibility that the world may be deceived 32:40.680 --> 32:44.500 into believing that a resurrection has taken place. 32:45.360 --> 32:50.300 However, the language of Revelation chapter 13 verse 3 does not encourage that 32:50.300 --> 32:51.960 idea, according to Dave Hunt. 32:52.660 --> 32:58.720 Now, quote, or excuse me, that, quote, One of his heads, unquote, 32:59.000 --> 33:03.900 received a deadly wound would not indicate that the entire beast was dead, 33:04.300 --> 33:08.980 but rather that he was mortally wounded in one aspect of his being. 33:09.920 --> 33:15.740 Although the heads are said to represent kings, it could not be a literal king who 33:15.740 --> 33:18.940 was killed and raised to life for the reasons already given. 33:18.940 --> 33:22.980 The beast and his heads represent several things at once. 33:23.540 --> 33:29.620 Kings, kingdoms, Satan, the Antichrist, and the revived Roman Empire. 33:30.220 --> 33:34.520 The latter has within it the elements of death and apparent resurrection. 33:35.520 --> 33:42.140 The Roman Empire did indeed die, though not completely, inasmuch as the 33:42.140 --> 33:47.580 fragments remained along with the perpetual hope of ultimate resurrection. 33:47.580 --> 33:50.700 And it is alive and well today. 33:51.760 --> 33:57.660 It says when that resurrection does take place under Antichrist, it will be as 33:57.660 --> 34:02.920 though an empire, not a person, came back from the dead. 34:03.940 --> 34:09.520 And one who studies the Vatican's power in the world and the influence that he has 34:09.520 --> 34:14.280 over the governments and the kings of the world, it cannot be described in any other 34:14.280 --> 34:19.420 way than the old holy Roman Empire is now alive and well again. 34:20.220 --> 34:28.960 To steal a phrase coined by Stuart, the author of the book Code Word Babylon, 34:29.220 --> 34:29.560 P.D. 34:29.620 --> 34:29.880 Stuart. 34:30.900 --> 34:37.480 Now, that God intends to establish his own kingdom on earth, and that the revived 34:37.480 --> 34:42.820 Roman Empire stands in its way and must be destroyed for God's kingdom to appear, 34:43.500 --> 34:44.700 is clear as well. 34:45.660 --> 34:51.360 This was shown at the very beginning of this progressive revelation in the stone 34:51.360 --> 34:54.280 smashing the image and filling the earth. 34:55.180 --> 35:00.320 That's speaking of the prophecy of the metal man image seen in Daniel. 35:00.320 --> 35:06.620 Now, it is equally clear that Antichrist is Satan's counterfeit of Christ, 35:06.960 --> 35:11.780 and that the revived Roman Empire is a counterfeit of the kingdom of God on 35:11.780 --> 35:12.020 earth. 35:12.120 --> 35:14.580 And with this I wholly agree with Dave Hunt. 35:15.080 --> 35:16.280 Let me read it again. 35:16.920 --> 35:23.980 It is equally clear that Antichrist, that is the papacy, is Satan's counterfeit 35:23.980 --> 35:30.580 of Christ, and that the revived Roman Empire, that which we are all subject to 35:30.580 --> 35:35.400 today, is a counterfeit of the kingdom of God on earth. 35:36.060 --> 35:39.220 That is very correct as far as I'm concerned. 35:40.160 --> 35:42.760 Now, the first and future Antichrist. 35:43.400 --> 35:47.580 Now, Dave's future isn't going to creep back in and I'm going to squish it like a 35:47.580 --> 35:47.920 bug. 35:47.920 --> 35:55.900 It says the prefix anti- comes from the Greek language and has two meanings. 35:56.880 --> 36:04.920 Number one, opposed to, and number two, in the place of, or a substitute for. 36:05.980 --> 36:09.120 Antichrist will embody both these meanings. 36:10.120 --> 36:17.120 He will indeed oppose Christ, but in the most diabolically clever way it could be 36:17.120 --> 36:17.540 done. 36:17.540 --> 36:25.200 By pretending to be Christ, and thus perverting Christianity from within. 36:25.800 --> 36:27.580 Well said, Dave Hunt. 36:28.440 --> 36:34.200 And it says, indeed, Antichrist will, quote, sit in the temple of God, 36:34.340 --> 36:36.560 showing himself that he is God. 36:37.300 --> 36:39.460 Second Thessalonians 2.4. 36:39.780 --> 36:42.480 And that's exactly what the papacy does. 36:43.300 --> 36:49.820 Now, if Antichrist pretends to be Christ, and is worshipped by the world, 36:50.120 --> 36:56.440 as it is today, see Revelation chapter 13, verse 8, then his followers are, 36:56.720 --> 36:58.180 of course, Christians. 36:59.140 --> 37:00.340 That's right. 37:01.180 --> 37:02.860 They call themselves Christians. 37:03.840 --> 37:05.200 They call themselves Christians. 37:05.980 --> 37:13.540 The greatest apostasy, the greatest lie ever told, is believed by Christians. 37:14.580 --> 37:15.340 Let me read it again. 37:15.460 --> 37:21.340 If Antichrist pretends to be Christ, and is worshipped by the world, 37:21.980 --> 37:26.120 then his followers must, of course, be Christians. 37:27.300 --> 37:31.340 Now do you have a concept of just how corrupt Christianity is? 37:32.380 --> 37:37.260 You see now why I prefer to call myself a Bible believer, and more specifically, 37:37.460 --> 37:39.180 a King James Bible believer? 37:40.100 --> 37:41.880 Christianity has been hijacked. 37:42.440 --> 37:47.800 The Word has been hijacked, and the whole system of belief has been hijacked. 37:48.540 --> 37:55.080 He says, not Communism, but Christianity will take over the world, and not real 37:55.080 --> 37:59.160 Christianity, but an Antichrist counterfeit thereof. 37:59.160 --> 38:01.220 You know who he's talking about? 38:01.860 --> 38:04.080 All the Christian churches in this country. 38:05.000 --> 38:06.680 It's a counterfeit Christianity. 38:07.360 --> 38:11.680 And it certainly is a counterfeit Christianity if it acknowledges the Pope 38:11.680 --> 38:16.600 as a Christian, or a spiritual leader, or a moral leader in the world. 38:17.420 --> 38:23.600 If it reckons the papacy as anything but the biblical, historical, and prophetic 38:23.600 --> 38:25.840 Antichrist, it is not Christianity. 38:26.700 --> 38:30.260 And that's why I tell people unapologetically, and I'm criticized for 38:30.260 --> 38:35.440 this all the time, the worst place for a man of God to be is in the churches today. 38:36.440 --> 38:43.020 Satan has entered the sanctuary, preaching lies, destroying the belief that 38:43.020 --> 38:50.040 God intended for us all to have and hold and understand, teaching that the Pope is 38:50.040 --> 38:56.060 a Christian, and that we ought to ecumenically reunite with the Pope, 38:56.540 --> 39:01.100 that we ought to seek peace and unity with Satan's vicar on earth. 39:01.960 --> 39:08.480 Look, you know, I'm accused of being brash and rough around the edges when I say that 39:08.980 --> 39:14.180 we all have a responsibility to walk into our churches, catch the pastor alone, 39:14.300 --> 39:18.640 and walk up to him face to face and ask him, Who is the Antichrist? 39:18.780 --> 39:26.000 And if he even stops, pauses to take a breath before he answers, the Antichrist 39:26.000 --> 39:32.340 is the papacy, then kick his diabolical butt to the curb, and go get you a real 39:32.340 --> 39:34.320 man of God to preach behind the pulpit. 39:35.140 --> 39:38.580 Go get you a Protestant to preach behind the pulpit. 39:39.540 --> 39:44.940 Restore the faith of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in your churches, or simply walk 39:44.940 --> 39:45.320 out. 39:45.320 --> 39:52.100 Our churches preach that we have to obey our government, no matter what, 39:52.180 --> 39:54.300 because God instituted the government. 39:54.740 --> 39:58.840 They fail to tell you that what the government is supposed to do in this world 39:58.840 --> 40:01.340 is to reward good and to punish evil. 40:02.100 --> 40:04.480 And who determines what is good and evil? 40:05.320 --> 40:06.320 God Himself. 40:07.360 --> 40:13.840 Government has no other role in the world but to uphold the law of God, not to add 40:13.840 --> 40:16.060 to and not to take away from. 40:16.940 --> 40:23.100 And the government of the United States says, you shall not speak ill of any other 40:23.100 --> 40:27.820 religion, and particularly the quote-unquote Christian religion, 40:27.980 --> 40:33.580 this monstrosity led by the papacy called Christianity today. 40:34.540 --> 40:38.920 I've heard it said, America is not a Christian nation, and under that context, 40:39.000 --> 40:41.080 it is not a Christian nation. 40:41.080 --> 40:43.460 It is a satanic nation. 40:44.140 --> 40:48.680 Any nation that would allow the papacy to come through his priests and his prelates 40:48.680 --> 40:54.260 to dictate to our government what laws to pass and what laws not to pass, 40:54.720 --> 41:01.820 and to bind us all as slaves to a system that God forbids, a socialist system where 41:01.820 --> 41:07.300 we all pool our money together where wickedness prevails, to strengthen the 41:07.300 --> 41:12.780 wickedness in our nation instead of being a separate people, holy and dedicated to 41:12.780 --> 41:15.680 God, is not a Christian nation. 41:15.880 --> 41:17.800 It is an antichrist nation. 41:18.720 --> 41:23.920 We all have to realize that we're all slaves to this government, and that's 41:23.920 --> 41:29.780 simply because we've returned to the Babylonian Pharaoh, the Roman Pharaoh, 41:30.080 --> 41:31.040 the Pope of Rome. 41:31.820 --> 41:35.740 We allow Catholics to sit in the high offices of our government, even in the 41:35.740 --> 41:43.480 presidency itself, disguised as Protestants, Evangelicals, ecumenical 41:43.480 --> 41:46.560 Evangelibellies, all kissing the ring of the Pope. 41:46.900 --> 41:50.280 We allow those people to control our government to make us all slaves. 41:50.620 --> 41:52.900 And we're all happy little slaves, aren't we? 41:53.680 --> 41:56.300 I'll tell you what, I'm no longer happy in my servitude. 41:57.020 --> 41:58.340 No longer happy. 41:58.340 --> 42:01.060 I repent of my servitude. 42:02.120 --> 42:08.800 God made me free to worship Him in spirit and in truth, and not to be subject to the 42:08.800 --> 42:10.180 antichrist of the Bible. 42:11.100 --> 42:16.160 Our government represents the antichrist of the Bible, not Jesus Christ, 42:16.860 --> 42:18.240 the Savior of the world. 42:19.180 --> 42:22.760 My patriotism has been destroyed by the truth. 42:23.240 --> 42:29.840 I no longer worship my government as a god, and I suggest that we all loosen our 42:29.840 --> 42:36.040 grip on this thing we call America, because it no longer serves Christ, 42:36.180 --> 42:37.400 it serves antichrist. 42:38.320 --> 42:46.300 And until we make our kingdom Christ's, then we are without a nation, because our 42:46.300 --> 42:48.240 nation does not serve us anymore. 42:49.180 --> 42:53.800 Nicholas would say, if he were here, he would say, Tom, you're ready to cross 42:53.800 --> 42:54.280 the border. 42:54.280 --> 43:01.100 If antichrist pretends to be Christ and is worshipped by the world, then his 43:01.100 --> 43:04.140 followers are, of course, Christians. 43:05.220 --> 43:10.620 Not communism, but Christianity will take over the world, and not real Christianity, 43:11.280 --> 43:13.940 but an antichrist counterfeit thereof. 43:14.880 --> 43:18.980 Thus the great apostasy precedes the revelation of antichrist. 43:19.100 --> 43:21.080 See 2 Thessalonians 2.3. 43:21.080 --> 43:26.800 Part of the apostasy is the ecumenical movement, which is literally setting the 43:26.800 --> 43:34.120 stage for a union between all religions, and even influences evangelicals as well. 43:35.080 --> 43:41.620 An antichrist, an antichrist Christianity must be created, which embraces all 43:41.620 --> 43:48.240 religions, and which all religions will embrace, precisely what is occurring today 43:48.240 --> 43:50.220 with astonishing speed. 43:50.220 --> 43:56.400 We have documented this development in other books, such as Global Peace and the 43:56.400 --> 43:59.900 Rise of Antichrist, and we'll have much more to say about it later. 44:00.560 --> 44:05.160 The Latin equivalent, listen carefully, you'll find this familiar if you're a 44:05.160 --> 44:06.820 regular listener to Inquisition Update. 44:07.800 --> 44:14.920 The Latin equivalent of the Greek word anti, or the prefix anti, is vicarious, 44:15.760 --> 44:17.760 from which comes the word vicar. 44:18.600 --> 44:23.720 Thus, the vicar of Christ literally means antichrist. 44:23.800 --> 44:25.560 This is no play with words. 44:26.540 --> 44:27.820 This is no trick. 44:28.840 --> 44:32.240 This is direct dictionary meanings. 44:32.540 --> 44:41.400 The prefix anti is equivalent to the word vicarious, the article of which is vicar, 44:42.040 --> 44:45.600 which is the very title of the Pope, the vicar of Christ. 44:45.600 --> 44:48.260 And it literally means antichrist. 44:48.960 --> 44:53.240 Although the Roman Catholic Popes have called themselves vicar of Christ, 44:53.360 --> 44:58.580 in other words, antichrist for centuries, they were not the first to do so, 44:58.980 --> 45:02.280 but inherited that title from Constantine. 45:03.160 --> 45:08.120 His future counterpart, the coming world ruler over the revived Roman Empire, 45:08.580 --> 45:10.780 will be the antichrist. 45:11.320 --> 45:13.940 The Popes, they all carry that title. 45:13.940 --> 45:20.680 How Dave Hunt can be confused about a future antichrist is beyond my 45:20.680 --> 45:21.600 comprehension. 45:22.560 --> 45:27.080 He says, as already noted in the ancient Roman Empire, the emperor was worshipped 45:27.080 --> 45:27.880 as God. 45:28.800 --> 45:32.800 As such, he was the leader of the pagan priesthood and of the official 45:32.800 --> 45:35.420 state-sponsored pagan religion of the Empire. 45:36.380 --> 45:42.040 An image was made to the Caesars, before which the citizens were required to 45:42.040 --> 45:43.000 bow and worship. 45:43.640 --> 45:47.920 Those who refused to acknowledge the emperor as God were killed. 45:48.680 --> 45:53.140 And so it will be when the Roman Empire is revived under antichrist. 45:53.580 --> 45:57.160 See, Dave Hunt is speaking about this as though it's going to be something that's 45:57.160 --> 45:58.260 going to occur in the future. 45:59.180 --> 46:01.660 He's contradicting himself at best. 46:02.400 --> 46:07.360 He has already acknowledged that the papacy has always called itself the vicar 46:07.360 --> 46:10.020 of Christ, the antichrist. 46:10.880 --> 46:13.600 Why does Dave Hunt wait for a future one? 46:14.460 --> 46:18.460 He says, those who refused to acknowledge the emperor as God were killed. 46:19.060 --> 46:24.420 And so it will be when the Roman Empire is revived under antichrist. 46:24.940 --> 46:30.320 This fact is clearly presented in the extensive vision Christ gave to John. 46:30.520 --> 46:36.240 Quote, And he causeth the earth and them that dwell therein to worship the first 46:36.240 --> 46:42.680 beast, now that he is the second beast, the wilderness beast, he causeth the earth 46:42.680 --> 46:47.080 and them that dwell therein to worship the first beast, that is the papacy, 46:48.100 --> 46:52.440 saying to them that dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the 46:52.440 --> 46:57.820 beast, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be 46:57.820 --> 46:58.300 killed. 46:59.220 --> 47:02.240 Revelation chapter 13 verse 12 through 15. 47:03.920 --> 47:13.700 So how can Dave Hunt place the onus of antichrist on a future, a future 47:13.700 --> 47:14.400 individual? 47:17.200 --> 47:22.460 The popes have always required the kings of the earth to bow and worship him, 47:23.900 --> 47:29.040 and commanded those kings to go back to their realms and exterminate the true 47:29.040 --> 47:34.660 bible believing Christians, and to make slaves of the rest of their citizens, 47:35.120 --> 47:38.880 and to put them under Roman Catholic canon law. 47:41.040 --> 47:44.440 Why wait for a future antichrist when he's been here all along? 47:46.100 --> 47:48.560 Because it's Satan's trick. 47:48.700 --> 47:53.660 If we're waiting for a future antichrist then we don't suspect him in the here and 47:53.660 --> 47:59.920 the now, and we don't see how he controls our governments, just like he has always 47:59.920 --> 48:05.120 done, and make us submit to Roman Catholic canon law without our knowledge. 48:06.020 --> 48:11.240 And there ought to be enough Protestant reformation left in this country to point 48:11.240 --> 48:15.660 out each and every law that is passed by our government that puts us under Roman 48:15.660 --> 48:16.100 yoke. 48:16.920 --> 48:21.060 But there's not enough Protestantism left in this country to even suspect that our 48:21.060 --> 48:23.660 government is under the control of the papacy. 48:25.000 --> 48:29.840 And they don't recognize Roman Catholic canon law, and they don't recognize Roman 48:29.840 --> 48:33.600 Catholic canon law because they don't recognize God's holy law. 48:38.240 --> 48:43.000 We are in a most desperate state of apostasy in this country. 48:44.540 --> 48:48.420 And if we don't return to true Bible-believing Protestantism, 48:49.100 --> 48:54.280 if we don't put Christ back on his throne, if we don't acknowledge him as the only 48:54.280 --> 48:59.880 legitimate lawgiver in the universe, and if we don't acknowledge his status as 48:59.880 --> 49:05.480 King of Kings and Lord of Lords by obeying his law, the most pristine form of 49:05.480 --> 49:11.240 worship, then we will fall to antichrist, both spiritually and temporally. 49:11.240 --> 49:14.680 And that's precisely what's happening in the United States today. 49:17.620 --> 49:23.100 There isn't a man, woman or child on this planet that doesn't ultimately worship the 49:23.100 --> 49:23.440 beast. 49:24.980 --> 49:30.160 Because we obey and we have to, or the SWAT teams come, the German 49:30.160 --> 49:35.740 Shepherds come, the M16s come, the tanks come, the fire hoses come. 49:38.120 --> 49:42.000 We're all made to worship the beast in fear of our own lives if we don't. 49:43.940 --> 49:50.400 Well, my life isn't worth a nickel if it ends in a fiery grave for eternity. 49:52.860 --> 49:59.600 Why live this life in disobedience against the true King of Kings and Lord of Lords, 50:00.080 --> 50:04.640 and in compliance with the law of antichrist? 50:09.020 --> 50:11.800 America, a Christian nation? 50:13.000 --> 50:13.660 Hardly. 50:15.000 --> 50:17.580 That's all we have on Inquisition Update this week. 50:17.660 --> 50:23.320 We'll continue our reading of the book, A Woman Rides the Beast, by Dave Hunt. 50:23.400 --> 50:24.160 We'll see you Monday. 53:00.860 --> 53:01.880 A woman rides the beast, by Dave Hunt. 53:03.200 --> 53:04.280 We'll see you Monday. 53:31.100 --> 53:32.500 A woman rides the beast, by Dave Hunt. 53:32.500 --> 53:45.640 We'll see you Monday. 54:13.640 --> 54:19.260 Visit crosstheborder.org, C-R-O-S-S, crosstheborder.org, to get your print, 54:19.400 --> 54:24.580 e-pub, or PDF version of Nicholas Arthur's new book titled, When the Third Temple is 54:24.580 --> 54:24.940 Built. 54:25.280 --> 54:26.980 That's crosstheborder.org. 54:27.320 --> 54:30.960 When it comes to prophecy today, much of the Evangelical Christian world 54:30.960 --> 54:35.560 has their eyes on Israel, waiting and watching to see when the Third Temple will 54:35.560 --> 54:36.340 begin to be built. 54:36.880 --> 54:38.140 The plans are drawn. 54:38.280 --> 54:39.580 The Jewish people are eager. 54:40.200 --> 54:43.920 Most Evangelical Christians today believe that the rapture will happen before the 54:43.920 --> 54:44.880 Third Temple is built. 54:45.380 --> 54:46.860 Hi, I'm Michael Eugene. 54:47.240 --> 54:50.040 I was taught that Daniel's 70th week was in the future. 54:50.680 --> 54:52.340 Is that really what the Bible teaches? 54:52.340 --> 54:55.920 Have we searched the Scriptures and found this to be true? 54:56.640 --> 55:00.220 Why is it so important for a re-established Israel to build a Third 55:00.220 --> 55:01.100 Temple in Jerusalem? 55:01.720 --> 55:06.340 Is it necessary to build a Temple on the same location already occupied by the Dome 55:06.340 --> 55:06.800 of the Rock? 55:07.260 --> 55:11.340 Is it necessary for sacrifices to take place in the Temple on Temple Mount? 55:11.840 --> 55:15.160 Is there really a rapture followed by seven years of tribulation? 55:15.900 --> 55:17.440 What is the New Testament Temple? 55:18.140 --> 55:20.400 Can we identify history and prophecy? 55:21.060 --> 55:24.160 Who is the first beast in Revelation Chapter 13? 55:24.840 --> 55:27.400 Who are the seven kings in Revelation 17? 55:28.220 --> 55:31.760 I have asked all these questions and I have found Nicholas Arthur's new book, 55:32.060 --> 55:36.600 When the Third Temple is Built, answers all these questions and more using 55:36.600 --> 55:38.200 Scripture to interpret Scripture. 55:38.860 --> 55:42.340 The Bible says that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private 55:42.340 --> 55:43.060 interpretation. 55:43.860 --> 55:46.760 Nicholas shows us in his new book, When the Third Temple is Built, 55:46.760 --> 55:51.440 how the Bible interprets prophecy and not man's private interpretation. 55:52.600 --> 55:58.740 Visit crosstheborder.org, C-R-O-S-S,
