Current/Future events in the Middle East

Post #1

I cannot post pictures (EXTREMELY RELEVANT) here so if you want to see them search for this video on youtube, otherwise just read the text bellow : "End of the world 1 -- How it will happen"

So you’ve watched some conspiracy videos, done a bit of research, and are now waiting for a New World Order, a global system of the Antichrist. That’s great, but what are you basing your beliefs on ? On what the UN, the celebrities, world leaders, bankers, etc do ? So basically you’re waiting for a NWO because of what the “elites� do and say. What do these “elites� want ? Money ? They own the money-printing presses. Power? They have it all. To kill us? They could do it in one hour. No, the only reason why someone would lock themselves up in an office and plan such schemes and do so much evil all their life is FAITH. And as you’ve probably realized by now, they are anti-Christian and in one way or another they all share the same faith – in Lucifer! So far so good – you are waiting for a NWO because of what the “elites� who obey Satan do. If these people trust Satan, it means you are waiting for a global system of the antichrist because YOU TRUST SATAN, the deceiver, the one who has no Truth in him and can only speak lies. Think about it while you read this page …



Satan cannot tell the Truth (John 8:44). He has many agents working for him and even though he cannot tell the truth, he manages to deceive all of them at once (quite a feat). There are 3 main groups (not completely independent of one another) that are actively working towards the establishment of a one-world-government system and each are waiting for a messiah to rule this global government : 1) the deceived luciferian “elites� of the world who believe in the luciferian doctrine and combine it with various pagan and new-age beliefs, 2) the deceived fanatic Sabbatean/talmudic/kabbalistic zionists (referred to in the Bible as “the synagogue of Satan�) who believe their Messiah will come when they control the entire world through various legal, financial and military means and who partially control the first group, and 3) deceived muslims. The Bible only says that the end-times system will be anti-Christian, and all 3 fit this description and are actively trying to deceive and keep people away from the message of Christ through the media and education systems. Why are we using the Bible to analyze these 3 groups? Because the Bible is true and it is the Word of God (if you don’t believe this the easiest way to convince yourself is to make a list of critiques and search for ANSWERS; you will see that there is absolutely no way the TEXT, not what you think the text says, can be proven to be from anyone but God; or you could simply follow the instructions given in the New Testament and find the absolute Truth).



Apart from these 3 main groups, people often include the Vatican in their analyses. Although it has always been antichristian (arian) the Vatican doesn’t fit biblical prophecies; the main reason why people include it in end-times analyses is because the Vatican is situated in Rome, and Rome (not the Vatican) used to sit on 7 hills in the past (today it's more like 10 hills, out of which the Vatican sits on just 1). The Bible says about the “whore of Babylon� that it sits on 7 mountains and this is why people twist Bible verses to fit the Vatican but as we’ll see, there is no need to twist the meaning of verses (and basically lie) since everything is clear – “mountains� in the Bible is a word used a lot for “kingdoms� or “kings� and the Arabian peninsula is divided into 7 kindoms/states. This area of the world fits all other descriptions of the “whore of Babylon� while the Vatican doesn’t. More refutations of the "revived roman empire" theory (developed ina time when the book of Daniel was sealed until the end - Daniel 12:4, an "end" that comes when the Bible is preached to all nations - Matthew 24:14) are given towards the end of the page.



So we have to eliminate 2 of these groups, and leave the one that best fits biblical prophecies. As we’ll see bellow, the only one that perfectly fits biblical prophecy is islam. There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in Christian escathology that Islam doesn’t fit; it fits 100% of the prophecies! There will never be a new-age luciferian New World Order, or a Zionist Talmudic control over the entire planet – although anti-Christian, none of them fit biblical prophecy, they are just deceived pawns and tools used to drive people away from Christ. Also, we need to keep in mind that very rarely the Bible talks about “Planet Earth� when it mentions “the whole earth�; a better translation is “the whole LAND� since the Bible is mostly dealing with Israel and the surrounding area, and not with the Eskimos in Alaska or some jungle tribes. Everything in the Bible points to the fact that the end-times events will only involve a certain “land�, the Middle East, and not the entire Planet - Jesus said that the mustard seed is the smallest in the LAND (correct translation) not of the Planet (Scientific error). This is a second reason why I think there will never be a global government (but a local islamic caliphate). A third reason is the fact that the Bible clearly says that in the end times there will be wars between opposing sides, which means that the antichrist system will not control the whole Earth. Fourth - Matthew 24:37 - it will be as in the days of Noah (nobody will suspect it). So don't wait for a "global NWO" while ignoring the Middle East, otherwise "the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night" - 2 Peter 3:10. Iislam is the only remaining candidate out of these 3 groups that can fit biblical prophecies.



There have been many charlatans in the past who have said “I am God� or “I am from god� but never proved it, such as Simon Magus - 1st century, Veleda - 1st century, Mani - 3rd century, Muhammad - 7th century, Danila Filipovich - 18th century, Hong Xiuquan - 19th century, Ellen G. White - 19th century, Joseph Smith - 19th century, Nirmala Srivastava - 20th century, Jose Miranda - 20th century, etc. Only one figure in history has said such things and has proved it – Jesus Christ :

- Jesus Christ FULFILLED the PROPHECIES made about Him : Isaiah 12:2 – He is Salvation (=Yeshua=Jesus), Daniel 9:25 – He will come 483 years after the decree to rebuild Jerusalem, Micah 5:2 – He will come in Bethleem, Isaiah 7:14 – born from a virgin, Jeremiah 23:5-6 – He is both Man and God, Zechariah 9:9 – will enter Jerusalem on a donkey and be welcomed like a King, Isaiah 50:6 – they will whip Him, beat Him, spit on Him, Psalms 22:16 – He will be crucified, Psalms 69:21 – He will be given vinegar on the cross, Zechariah 12:10 – He will be pierced on the cross, Isaiah 25:8 – will be resurrected, etc etc etc.

- Jesus Christ defeated DEATH and SATAN and performed MIRACLES in front of thousands of witnesses: turned water into wine (John 2:1-11), healed people (Matthew 8:1-4, John 4:43-54, Matthew 8:14-15, etc), He drove out demons (Mark 1:21-27, Matthew 8:16-17, etc), He gave back life to the dead (Luke 7:11-17, Matthew 9:18:26, John 11:1-45, etc), fed thousands of people (John 6:1-15, Matthew 15:32-39, etc), conquered the elements (Matthew 8:23-27, John 6:16-21), etc etc etc.

- Jesus Christ assumed the ATTRIBUTES of GOD : the first and the last (Isaiah 44:6 vs Revelation 1:17-1), the forgiver of sins (Daniel 9:9 vs Mark 2:5-7), the light (Psalm 27:1 vs John 8:12), the Truth (Psalm 31:5 vs John 14:6), the final judge (Joel 3:12 vs Matthew 25:31-32), the resurrection (1 Samuel 2:6 vs John 11:25), etc etc etc.

- Finally, Jesus Christ DID ACKNOWLEDGE His divinity (otherwise He would not have been CRUCIFIED !!! ) : John 9:35–38, John 10:30–33, John 20:28–29, Matthew 16:15-17, John 14:7-11, John 10:37-38, Matthew 27:43, John 17:11, Mark 14:61-62, etc etc etc.

The fulfillment of prophecies, the miracles, the acknowledgment of divinity were ALL recorded in non-biblical historians’ writings. Even if all the Bibles in the world would be burned, we could write the New Testament again just from non-biblical historians accounts. Find more explanations & verses in forum -> Christ-proof -> [Questions about Jesus].



It is Christ’s message that these 3 groups are trying to keep away from people. Islam, the only remaining valid candidate for the end-time antichrist system, satisfies the criteria of 1 John 2:21-22 by denying the divinity of Jesus Christ. Moreover, to confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God is an unforgivable sin in islam and muslims will be sent to a (non-existent) “eternall hell� if they do it. No other religion on Earth (apart from the “synagogue of Satan�) specifically denies Christ in its “holy� texts. Not only that it denies Christ and threatens muslims with an “eternal hell� if they accept Christ, but it also asks muslims not to make friends with and to fight the jews and Christians specifically, through all means possible (including deception) and promises a “holy war� in the end-times against jews and Christians.



- Quran (9:29) - "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book[jews&Christians], until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."

- Quran (9:30) - "And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!"

- Bukhari (52:177) - Allah's Apostle said, "The [Last]Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him."

- Tabari 7:97 The morning after the murder of Ashraf, the Prophet declared, "Kill any Jew who falls under your power."

- etc.

Not only do the Bible and historical and archeological evidence say that islam is a continuation of the pagan cults of the arabs, but the islamic texts themselves support the idea that islam had satanic origins and is meant to deceive people. Entire islam comes from a blind old man (Waraqa) who was not sure if the spirit that gave the “revelations� is a demon or an angel! The islamic texts need no further explanation :

--- The religion of Abdel Mutaleb, muhammad's grandfather, was the worship of 2 statues of "jinn priests" - Asaf and Naelah were 2 Kuhhan (jinn priests) about which pre-islamic tradition says that they have been transformed in statues because they had sex in the Kabba; these were placed at the Zamzam well (built by muhammad' grandfather) where people used to sacrifice animals to these two jinn-priests. [ Ibn Hisham (IX'th century), Biography of muhammad, I, page 69 ]
--- Abdel Taleb was so devoted to these jinns that he tried to sacrifice muhammad's father, Abdullah, ti them but was stopped at the last second by his brother. [Ibn Hisham, I, page 126; Halabieh, Biography of muhammad, I, page 58]
--- Abdel Taleb chose Amneh, the niece of the most important jinn-priestess in Mecca (Soda Bint Zehra), to be the wife of muhammad's father. [Halabieh, I, page 73-74]
--- Amneh cast spells (rukhieh) on muhammad in childhood, and he often fell into trance because of them [Halabieh, 1, page 75]. In rukhieh the spirit of a jinn is brought to a person. Muhammad fell into such trances as a teenager too, before his "revelations" and every time he received messages from "allah" [ Halabieh, 1, page 406-407 ]
--- Abdu Taleb, the uncle of Muhammad, used to bring muhammad to the soothsayer Lahab [ Ibn Hisham, 1 page 147]. Abu Taleb was attacked by jinns numerous times because of the rituals he performed, and his son Taleb was possessed by demons and dissapeared [Halabieh 1, page 101 ]
--- The same simptoms that muhammad presents in the quran and hadiths, were recognized by the arabs as being caused by demons - attack through Ain (the eye of the jinn looked at a person and provoked these simptoms) [Taj al-Arus, 5, page 381]
--- Ibn Isham, the oldest and most authoritative biographer of muhammad, transcribed a poem that Abu Taleb recited to people in Mecca in which he says that muhammad casts spells in the cave of Hirra (where the "revelation" took place) [Ibn Hisham, 1 page 189, 218] and muhammad was bragging about it [pag.255]
--- Khadija, muhammad's first wife was also coming from a family of known occultists. Before her marriage with muhammad, Khadija was married with Nabash, a spiritist who spoke with jinns.[Ibn Hisham 1, page 128]
--- Khadija was the one who told a terrorized and shaking in fear muhammad that the jinn that violently attacked him in the Hirra cave (Sahih Bukhari 1:1:3; Sahih Muslim 1:301) is actually "the angel Gabriel" (Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith - 9:87:111 ).
--- the christian monk that Khadija took muhammad after the initial possession in the cave of Hirra says that "the angel Gabriel" is a demon who immitates angels in order to corrupt people [ Ibn Kathir, The life of the prophet muhammad (Al-Sira al-Nabawiyya), Vol I]
--- Spells were cast on muhammad before he became a "prophet"; he often showed possession signs (shaking, fainting, was closing his eyes and foamed at the mouth, fell asleep suddenly, etc) [Ibn Ishaq, Al Halabeyah, vol1, pag 407]


--- muhammad says that he has a jinn attached to him that helps him do good [Sahih Muslim 39,6757]
--- muhammad forbids muslims to ask who created "allah" [Sahih Bukhari 4,54,496] which is also called "the most proud" and "master of the morning" in the quran (like lucifer in the Bible).
--- muhammad says that somebody will bring with him what looks like heaven and earth but they will be inversed (heaven is hell) [Sahih Bukhari 4,55,554]
--- satan can possess prophets and give false teachings [Sura 22:52]
--- satan put words in the mouth of muhammad [Ibn Ishaq, Biography of the prophet, page 165-166] in the time when he needed to attract followers, but when muslims became numerous there was no more need for the teachings of satan and they were replaced [Al-Tabari, History of Al-Tabari, vol6, p. 111; Ibn Ishaq p. 165-166 versus Quran 53:19-23 (satanic verses)]
--- muhammad is afraid he is possessed after a demonic experience in which he is thrown to the ground by two white demons[Ibn Ishaq, Life of muhammad, page 36]
--- when receiving "revelations" muhammad was sweating heavily, turned red, was breathing heavily [Bukhari, 1,1,2; Bukhari 6,61,508]
--- people in Mecca thought muhammad was mad [Sura 44:14, 37:36] and he felt the need to deny that he is possessed by demons [sura 81:22-25].
--- muhammad had visions and believed he had sex with his wives when he hadn't [Bukhari 7,71,660]
--- muhammad was affected by magic and believed he did things he didn't do [Bukhari 8,75,400]

- the description of the buraq muhammad used to "go to heaven" is almost identical (beautiful and covered with all kinds of precious stones) with the description of satan in Ezekiel 28:13. The root of the word buraq is "Brq" which means "lightning" (the description of satan in the Bible).

Nature of islam





Islam was started by an Ishmaelite (both Christianity-Genesis 21:12 and islam-Quran 29:27 agree that prophets don’t come from Ishmael) who never proved in any way that he was sent by God and who admits in his book that he can’t prove that when challenged by the Meccans who called him a liar (Quran 16:101) and is the exact opposite of Jesus Christ - Muhammad ordered killings (Sahih Bukhari, vol 5, book 59, nr 369), he was a sexual maniac (Sahih Bukhari, vol 1, book5, nr 268), he mutilated people (Sahih Bukhari, 4, 52, 261), he married a 6 year old girl and had sex with her at 9 years old (Sahih Bukhari 7, 62, 64, Sahih Muslim, 8, 3310), he approved lying (Sahih Bukhari, 5, 59, 369) and lied himself (Sahih Bukhari, 7, 67, 427), and so on. You will have a hard time trying to find an example of a good deed (not words) that Muhammad did in the islamic texts. Apart from that, unlike the previous prophets, he was never called by God but some spirit (which attaked him), he never made any valid prophecies except for interpretations of current events and ridiculous statements such as “100 years after my death all people here will be dead too� and false prophecies such as the coming of the antichrist at the conquest of Constantinople, he managed to let Satan put verses in his Quran (the satanic verses), and most important, he contradicted the previous prophets - Muhammad said that 1) Jesus Christ is the Messia (Quran 3:45, 4:171, etc) and 2) He is not the Son of God and God "does not have a Son" (Quran 2:116, 5:116, 6:101, etc); but the prophets said that the Messiah is the Son of God and God Himself : II Samuel 7:12-14, Isaiah 9:6, eremiah 23:5-6, Psalm 2:7-12, Isaiah 7:14 (virgin birth), Proverbs 30:4, Zechariah 2:10-11, I Chronicles 17:13, John 20:31, etc.



This contradiction puts muslims in the awkward position in which they have to prove that the Bible has been modified, otherwise their Quran (which says that “allah� also gave the Bible - Quran 57:25, 53:36-42, 5:44, 4:163, 5:46, 7:156, etc) would obviously be false. But documentary evidence not only disproves this but also destroys muslims’ claim that the Quran has been “preserved perfectly�. The Bibles based on Textus Recepticus (such as the english KingJamesVersion) are the unaltered Word of God – the Old Testament is supported by the Septuagint and the Dead Sea scrolls, while the New Testament is derived from thousands of ancient texts all in agreement. There are however other fake Bibles in circulation too, which are not based on Textus Recepticus – the versions produced by the anti-Christian Vatican or freemasonry (such as the Jehowa’s Witnesses bible) based on gnostic arian texts such as Codex Alexandrinus, Siniaiticus, Vaticanus and which gave birth to the modern fake biblical texts such as the catholic Vulgate, the New International Version, Revised version, American standard, New English Bible, etc and a host of “lost gospels� mostly written in Alexandria, the main center of gnosticism and anti-christianity of antiquity which have all been proven to be fakes written under pseudonyms (some for example claim that the cross was alive and could walk and talk). What we do know however is that the Word of God has not been lost and it is found in the Bibles based on Textus Recepticus. One more aspect to keep in mind – the monastery which contained the fake Codex Sinaiticus and other gnostic texts was spared by muhammad and the following caliphs because it was not Christian, but a pagan one, so it denied Christ just like muslims (it was also protected by the freemason Napoleon).



Moving onto the Quran, we find a different story. Muslims are forbidden to read the two oldest (partial) copies of Quran at the Topkapi Museum in Istanbul and at the Sana'a mosque in Yemen because they contradict the modern versions. The Quran says almost nothing about the life of muhammad even though Quran 33:21 says muslims should take him as an example. On the other hand, the hadiths, biographies and non-islamic texts are full of details of the life of muhammad – murders, lies, pedophilia, incest, torture, necrophilia, wars and massacres of innocent women and children, false prophecies, theft, bestiality, etc etc etc. These are not in the Quran because the people who memorized them did not write the Quran. It was Caliph Uthman who wrote the Quran and he burned the texts he didn’t like (Sahih Bukhari 6:61:510). That’s why there is no detailed info about muhammad’s life in the Quran ! Not only that Uthman burned the existing testimonies, but entire chapters of the Quran have been forgotten (Sahih Muslim 5:2286) and some were purposely left out (Bukhari 6:61:527). Also muhammad said muslims should learn the Quran from Ubai, not what Zayd Ibn Thabit (who wrote the modern version) recited (Bukhari 6:61:521). Ibn Sad (Kitab al-Tabaqat al-Kabir vol.2 p.444 ) says that the recitation of Zayd Ibn Thabit is different than that of muhammad and that “the people have been guilty of deceit in the recitation of the Quran�. Jami At-Tirmidhi 3104 also says that today’s Quran is fake. After these improvisations of Qurans people were left with different versions because other people started writing their own manuscripts ( Jami at-Tirmidhi 3104) so they started fighting over it because they were all different. Ibn Masood had only 111 chapters, Ubay had 116 chapters and Zayd (the current one) had 114 chapters (Ibn Daud , Kitab al-Masahif). But not even a fake Quran was preserved because a goat ate parts of it (Sunan Ibn Majah 1934/1944). Nobody wrote down the Quran until a majority of memorizers were already dead and there was a danger that the remaining testimonies would be lost as well (Bukhari 6:61:509) so this is how Zayd Ibn Thabit got to write the Quran that we have today, from the remaining testimonies of survivors (only a few hundred pages from 23 years of “revelations�).



Not only that the modern Qurans are incomplete, but they are also filled with Scientific errors :

- Quran 18:86 says that the Sun sets in a spring of murky water showing that 1) muhammad believed the Earth was flat and 2) Muhammad believed the Sun sets on Earth. Muslims try to ignore the verses that say the Quran is clear and say it is a “metaphor�(for what?!?) but this nonsense is found everywhere in islamic texts (showing they were convinced about it) such as Ibn Ishaq’s Sirat Rasulullah (biography), the commentaries of Tafsir Ibn Abbas, Ibn Kathir, Al-Jalalayn, Al-Tabari and the Hadiths - Abu Dawud 3991, Musnad Ahmad 21459, etc;

- all humans come from Adam&Eve – Quran 4:1 (the Bible doesn’t say when more humans were created, but it does say that more were created after A&E – see Cain’s story);

- crucifiction in ancient Egypt – Quran 7:124;

- the Earth is flat again – 51:48, 13:3, 15:9, 50:7, 78:6-7, 79:30, 88:20, 91:6, etc;

- there are 11 planets - Quran 12:4;

- the Sun orbits the Earth - Qur'an 36:38-40;

- all living things are in pairs (male-female) – Quran 51:49;

- there are 7 heavens – 67:3, 65:12;

- stars are missiles – 67:5;

- sperm doesn’t come from the testicles – 86:5-7; and the list goes on.

The Quran has many internal contradictions as well :

- nobody can produce verses like in the Quran except “allah� – Quran 17:88 but Satan puts words in the prophets’ mouths – 22:52 and gave satanic surahs to muhammad – 53:19-23;

- there will be no change to “allah�s words – Quran 6:34, 6:115, 10:64, 18:27 but he cancels his own words – Quran 16:101, 2:106;

- Quran 34:50 says that if Muhammad does something wrong, only he will suffer but Quran 33:21 says muslims should follow the example of Muhammad, meaning that they would follow the wrong behaviour of Muhammad;

- if a man who has parents, daughters and a wife, dies his inheritance is to be split as follows : Quran 4:11 – daughters =2/3, parents = 1/3, Quran 4:12 - wife = 1/8. This is more than 100% of the inheritance;

- Quran 88:6 says the those in hell will only eat “bitter Dhari�( a poisonous, thorny plant) but Quran 69:36 says they will only eat “discharge of wounds�;

- Wine is forbidden – Quran 5:90 but it’s allowed - Quran 16:67, 2:219, 4:43 and it’s even found in heaven – 47:15;

- by your own will you believe or not (and go to hell) – Quran 6:12 but “allah� decides who can believe and who can’t – Quran 10:100; also, man is responsible for what he does – Quran 4:79, 30:9 but “allah� decides who is led astray and who is not – Quran 35:8; and the list goes on.

Moreover, the Unity that the Quran preaches instead of the Trinity (not Tritheism) is impossible - God can only be merciful if something EXISTS towards He can have mercy and love. So God cannot be DEPENDANT on His creation because He is all-powerful. If you say God is merciful AND all-powerful, God has to be able to Love without CREATING something. If you say "allah" takes only one form then you cannot say he is all-powerfull because there is NOTHING to Love and have mercy for ! Only the Trinity can explain this - God is all-powerful and can love without creating something.

All these show that the islamic texts cannot be from God. Since we all agree that God must be loving, it should be no surprise that the commandments of islam are nothing like that. A first clue comes from the fact that lying (which the Bible says comes from Satan, who is the “father of lies� and also “the deceiver�, the name of “allah� in the Quran) is allowed in islam - Quran 3:28, Quran 16:106, Quran 2:225, Sahih Muslim 32:6303, Sahih Bukhari 5:59:369, Sahih Bukhari 7:67:427, etc. As such, muslims have no problem saying that “islam is a religion of peace� when the peaceful commandments of the Mecca period have all been ABROGATED (“allah� canceled his own words) by the violent ones from the Medina period. Dozens of violent verses abrogate the “peaceful verses� and ask the muslims to fight and kill infidels :

- Quran 2:191-193, 2:244, 2:216, 3:56, 3:151, 4:74, 4:76, 4:89, 4:95, 4:104, 5:33, 8:12, 8:15, 8:39, 8:57, 8:59-60, 8:65, 9:5, 9:14, 9:20, 9:29, 9:30, 9:38-39, 9:41-42, 9:73, 9:88, 9:111, 9:123, 17:16, 18:65-81, 21:44, 25:52, 33:60-62, 47:3-4, 47:35, 48:17, 48:29, 61:4+9, 61:10-12, 66:9, etc.

- Sex with children - Sahih Muslim 8:3310, Quran 33:49:65:4,

- Sex with slaves – Quran 4:24,

- Sex with animals – Abu Dawud 38:4450,

- Sex with dead bodies - Kanz al Ummal 34424, etc.

- There are also hints that Muhammad was a homosexual too : Abu Dawud 1:22 - muhammad urinated like a woman, Bukhari 2442 - muhammad used to dress in his wives garments, but only when he wore Aisha's clothes "inspiration" came, Musnad Ahmad 16245 - muhammad used to suck the tongue of a boy, Bukhari 1:4:152 - mhammad used to let young boys watch him wash his private parts, Quran 56:10-40 - muhammad promissed fresh boys with eyes like pearls in heaven, Al Tirmidhi 4412 - muhammad appeared naked before men, Bukhari 8:73:27 - muhammad and his folowers kissed boys, Bukhari, p. 96, 1375 - it's ok for an imam to be homosexual, Abu Dawood 5224 - Muhammad lifting up his shirt for a man who proceeded to kiss his entire torso.
etc.

Unlike the one-time commands of the Old Testament which have no meaning for Christians today, these verses (and all other evils) were given to all muslims for all times.

Muslims today want to convince us (lying is holy in islam because it is authorized and recommended by “allah�) that jihad is peaceful. But how did the people that spoke to muhammad face-to-face and knew exactly what these verses meant interpret them ? Did they go out into the world and preach islam peacefully like Christ’s Apostles did ? No, they understood perfectly what these verses meant because muhammad was there explaining the verses to them : Go to war and chop off the heads of infidels! The earliest existent documents about islam and Muhammad prove this : folio 1 of BL Add. 14,461 (7th century) , BL Add. 14,643 (8th century), the Doctrina Jacobi nuper baptizati (634), wtitings of Sophronius the Patriarch of Jerusalem (639), Maximus the Confessor (d. 662), John, Bishop of Nikiu (640s or 690s), George of Resh'aina (680), etc show islam in a much more evil light than that presented to us by muslims like Osama bin Laden. Not even the islamic texts like Ibn Ishaq talk nicely about the spread of islam - "Then they (the tribe of Quraiza) surrendered, then he (the Prophet) sent for them and struck off their heads." -Sira (Biography of the Prophet) by Ibn Hisham 241. Why don’t all muslims cut Christians’ heads? Because when in minority/inferiority lying and deception (“holy�) are better weapons. Also, some islamic countries today are desperately poor, and yet they develop nuclear weapons when nobody is attacking them, support lots of terrorist groups around the world, and openly say they want Israel extinct and the planet under the domination of islam. To understand how this is possible, just listen to Ahmadinejad’s speech at the UN about the Mahdi emerging out of chaos !



After reading all this, nobody should be surprised that the entire cult of islam is built around a single tenet – the denial of Jesus Christ the Son of God and the absolute unity of their god “allah�. Islam explicitely denies Christ (the only religion on the planet to do this) : Quran 2:116, 5:116, 6:101, 9:30, 10:68, 19:35, 19:88, 23:91, 37:151, 39:4, 43:82, 72:3, 112:1-4, etc (you also have to do it when converting to islam). Moreover, islam says that Christ was not crucified even though all biblical and non-biblical evidence says otherwise, in Quran 4:157 and says that this "prophet jesus" will come to destroy Christianity and kill all jews : Sahih Bukhari 3,34,425/656 etc. Out of all the “prophets of islam�, only “prophet jesus� will be sent back in the end days. Why? To convince all Christians to become muslim and destroy everything related to Christianity (and to kill all jews of course). Quran 4:157 says that Christ was not physically killed. The Word of God says that Christ was crucified just like God promised in Psalm 22:16-18. The entire ordeal is prophesized actually : Psalms 35:19 – He will be hated for no reason, Psalms 31:13 – pharisees will plot against Him, Psalms 41:9 – will be betrayed…, Zechariah 11:12 - …for 30 silvers… , Zechariah 11:13 - … thrown in the Temple and used to buy the potter’s field, Psalms 109:7-8 – Matthew will replace Judas, Psalms 27:12 – false witnesses will accuse Him, Isaiah 53:7 – He will not defend Himself at the trial, Psalms 38:11 – apostles will be afraid and stay away, Isaiah 53:12 – will be grouped with criminals, Isaiah 50:6 – they will whip Him, beat Him, spit on Him, Psalms 109:25 – will be laughed at, Isaiah 53:3 – will be despised and rejected by His own, Psalms 22:16 – He will be crucified, Psalms 69:21 – He will be given vinegar on the cross, Zechariah 12:10 – He will be pierced on the cross, Psalms 22:18 – romans will divide His clothes, Amos 8:9-12 – skies will be darkened & from then the jews’ persecution will start, Isaiah 53:9 – He will be buried in a rich man’s grave - Joseph of Arimathea, Isaiah 25:8 – will be resurrected, etc. Cornelius Tacitus, Celsus, Lucian of Samosata, Mara Bar-Serapion, Flavius Josephus, Eusebius of Caesarea, Thallus, and other non-christian historians say that Jesus Christ died physically. So Quran 4:157 not only contradicts the Bible, it also contradicts non-biblical historians. Quran 4:157 says that another man was crucified in the place of Christ and witnesses were “made to believe that this crucified person was Jesus� (they were DECEIVED by "allah") but fail to explain exactly when did “allah� replace the “true Jesus� with a fake Jesus, and most important, fail to explain what happened to the person that was crucified. The resurrection of Christ sparked an explosion of Christianity and both the Jews and the Romans wanted Christianity stopped. All they had to do was to take the body of this “fake Jesus� that was crucified and show it to the Christians and say “look, Jesus is dead, here is his body� and Christianity would have disappeared after only a few days. Everybody knew where the tomb was, why didn’t they take him out and stop Christianity then instead of starting killing Christians ? Sadly, “allah� forgot to give muslims these details. Also, the quran says that "allah" is the greatest deceiver (Satan in the Bible) and the fact that it says that this "allah" deceived billions of people with the crucifiction story is evidence to this. God would not deceive people, only Satan would do what Quran 4:157 says.



Darkness is the absence of Light. Light can defeat darkness but darkness cannot do anything to the light. When you light a match in a dark room, the light will stay there no matter how big and dark the room; darkness cannot put light out. God is with people from beginning to end. He des not leave people unless people reject Him. When people reject Christ, they shut the light and let darkness come into them. People possessed by evil spirits are simply people who have rejected Christ and let darkness come into their hearts and minds. Many people think islam is just a barbaric man-made 7th century ridiculous religion. It’s more than that. God is with you your whole life even if you do not believe in Him. But when you convert to islam, you have to deny Christ the Messiah, the Son of God. This is the most important thing in islam – denying Christ. When you do this you shut God out and open the door for darkness to come inside you. People who consciously do this become (literally) possessed by the “allah� of islam and turn from ordinary righteous people to muslims who are ready to defend islam to the end even if that means defending murder, lying, pedophilia, torture, etc. They will turn from nice people to angry people ready to insult anyone who does not agree with them. When you reject Christ and let the spirit of islam inhabit you, you become a person that can never escape islam through their own will, no matter what arguments are presented to you. I have seen muslims who have accepted that islam is not from God and that it is evil and which simply couldn’t escape islam. Even if they were shown beyond doubt that islam is from Satan disguised as “allah�, the next day they were back at attacking Christianity, because there is nothing a true muslim can do to escape islam, except prayer to Christ. They will attack and insult everything related to Christ (because this is what Satan hates the most), they will invent ridiculous excuses to justify the errors in their texts, they will lie outright, they will do their best to show gullible people only an abrogated “nice� part of islam, they will spread the lies they have been thaught, they will not accept any answers, they will not listen to evidence and logic, and will continue to do this to the end. They cannot control themselves anymore, they are simply doing what their father (John 8:44) wants them to. Apart from being denied Salvation and being forced to live a miserable spiritual life on Earth, these muslims will be used by Satan in the end days to fulfill Biblical prophecy. When someone is under Satan's control they will fulfill God's prediction even if they are shown they are wrong, just like Judas iignored Jesus' warning that he would be His betrayer: "What you do, do quickly", Jesus said (John 13:27).

Islam in prophecy





Before we start, here’s a quick comparison of a few verses from the Word of God and islamic texts :

- An antichrist will appear and bring a 7 year peace during which he will try to destroy Israel (Daniel 9:27, 12:11) ....... A Mahdi wil appear and bring a 7 year peace( Tabarani in Ali Ibn Zubair Ali – Signs of Quymayah) and will occupy Jerusalem with black islamic flags (Tirmidhi in Ali Ibn Zubair Ali – Signs of Quymayah)

- A false Christ will appear and perform miracles and deceive people to leave Christianity ( Rev 19:20) ....... The “prophet jesus� will appear (Quran 43:61) and will do miracles and destroy Christianity(Bukhari 3:34:425) and try to make everyone muslim (Bukhari 4:55:658)

- A beast will give evil people a mark (Revelation 14:9) ....... A Beast (the Daabba) will come out of the earth (Quran 27:82) and muslims will take the Mark of this Beast (Abu Huraira in Musnad Ahmad & Tirmizi, Abu Amru Uthman bin Saeed Ad-Dani's book As-Sunan Al-Waridah Fil-Fita, Abu Dawud Musnad At-Tayalisi 334 - note: there are 2 colectors of hadiths named Abu Dawud)

- The false prophet will make an image which will speak and make people worship it or be beheaded( Rev 13:15) ....... The black stone in kaaba to which all muslims have to prostrate will have eyes and a mouth and will testify for good muslims (Tawaf of Qudum (Arrival), Shaykh Nasiruddin Al-Albani)

- Jesus Christ will appear on a white horse and fight the antichrist and the false prophet(Rev 19:11) ....... The Dajjal will appear on a white donkey(Mishkaat Masaabih 5423) and will fight the Mahdi and “prophet jesus�.

- The countries which will attack Israel and against which Jesus Christ will fight in the end days according to Isaiah & Ezekiel are Persia = Iran, Cush(Ethiopia, ancient Abissinia) = Sudan&Somalia(the ancient Ethiopia), Put = Libya, Gomer and Togarmah = Turkey, Meshech, Tubal, Gog, Magog = Central Asian countries, south of Russia - Turkmenistan, Kazachstan, Azerbaidjan, Afghanistan, etc and possibly Russia-proper, King of the North The Assyrian = Syria, King of the South Pharaoh of Egypt = Egypt, Prince of Tyre = Lebanon, King of Babylon = Iraq ....... All of them are islamic countries (to be united into a caliphate; see how close we are : forum -> faith-islam -> [the Caliphate] ).



The first place to start when studying Christian eschatology is the dream of King Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel’s interpretation - a statue appears in his dream which has four parts. Daniel interprets the four parts of the statue to represent four kingdoms that will each destroy one another. Babylon is named in the text as the first part of the statue, the head of gold (Daniel 2:37). Each of the three kingdoms subsequent to Babylon is unnamed. Scholars have almost universally interpreted the other three parts of the statue to be the kingdoms of Media-Persia, Greece, and Rome, each of whom defeated the other, successively, in history. The 4th kingdom, the one that will be here in the end days, has historically been interpreted to be Rome (wrongly so). The Roman Empire never absorbed the previous 3 empires completely as the 4th beast is supposed to do. Islam, the fastest growing and largest empire and most violent in the history of humanity, did however engulf all of the previous 3 “beasts�. Why did so many people misunderstand the prophecy in Daniel as being about “a revived Roman Empire�? Daniel 12.9 says that God sealed the book of Daniel UNTIL THE END TIMES (when people will understand what it really means).



We need to understand that the end-times war will first and foremost be a spiritual one. Revelation 12 introduces the red dragon that makes war against the woman (Israel) and her offspring (Christians). Verse 12:9 specifically identifies the red dragon as “the serpent of old who is called the devil and satan, who deceives the whole world�. In the very next chapter, the scripture introduces the “beast from the sea� and the “beast from the earth�. Verse 13:2 states “and the dragon gave him (the beast from the sea) his power and his throne and great authority�. Verse 13:11-12, referring to the beast from the earth states, “and he spoke as a dragon…And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence�. Therefore, the beast from the sea and the beast from the earth are satan’s instruments that act on his behalf and with his power and his authority. The beast from the sea “blasphemes God� (13:5); the beast from the earth deceives the whole earth/land causing it to worship the beast from the sea. Together and individually they commit antichrist actions identified in 1 John 2:18- 22. They each are identified as antichrist by their actions; and since they stand and act on behalf of satan, and since satan, in effect, acts behind them and gives them his power, they are satan. Satan is linked with the two. They are, in fact, satan’s disguise that conceals his true identity. Revelation 12:17 - “And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus�. The “dragon� is satan (Rev 12:9, 20:2). The “offspring of the woman� is Christianity (Rev 12:17). The woman is Israel - Revelation 12:1 describes the woman as “clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars� - This description is identical with the specifics of Joseph’s dream in Genesis 37:9-10 which represents the 12 tribes of Israel. The only empire which engaged in war against both Israel and Christianity, specifically “holy� war, is islam, therefore, an islamic caliphate would match both Daniels prophecy about the 4th beast and the prophecies of Revelations. Let’s examine this 4th Beast in more detail.



The divided kingdom

Daniel 2:43 states,"And in that you saw the iron mixed with common clay, they will combine with one another in the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, even as iron does not combine with pottery.�

This is precisely the case for Shiite Islam. Shiites, the minority sect of Islam, traces its roots back to Ali, Muhammad’s first cousin by blood, his foster son, and also his son-in-law through the marriage to his daughter, Fatima. Shiites do not recognize the first three caliphs of Islam because the first three caliphs of Islam were elected by “consensus� without regard to their blood-relationship to Muhammad. Therefore, followers are “combined� by virtue of their holding to the belief that only heirs of Muhammad qualify as rightful Imams to Muhammad, i.e., only Ali’s sons by Ali’s wife, Fatima, daughter of Muhammad, carry the “seed� of Muhammad. Further, Twelver Shiites (the majority branch of Shiite Islam) continue the requirement of blood relationship through all of its first Twelve Imams. Twelvers believe that in the Last Days, the 12th Imam of Shiite Islam, the “Hidden Imam� will reappear as the Mahdi (the islamic saviour), a literal blood descendant of Muhammad’s family. Furthermore, Islam meets another characteristic of Daniel: one kingdom composed of two sects, one of which is strong (sunni) and the other, weak (shia) and, neither of which are able to join together under one united banner.



Violent kingdom.

This 4th beast will be an exceedingly strong and violent kingdom. It will not only destroy but it will devour those kingdoms it destroys. Daniel 2 states: “Then there will be a fourth kingdom as strong as iron; inasmuch as iron crushes and shatters all things, so, like iron that breaks in pieces, it will crush and break all these in pieces. And in that you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, it will be a divided kingdom; but it will have in it the toughness of iron�. Daniel 7 states:"…After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed, and trampled down the remainder with its feet….Then I desired to know the exact meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, with its teeth of iron and its claws of bronze, and which devoured, crushed, and trampled down the remainder with its feet….Thus he said: 'The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be different from all the other kingdoms, and it will devour the whole earth and tread it down and crush it�. Islam defeated the Roman Empire and its successor empire, the Byzantines, in the centuries following Islam’s birth in 622AD and it was one of the most violent empires in human history, if no the most violent, committing genocides and atrocities on a scale not surpassed even by the 20th century wars.



Also, we must consider other Biblical prophecies when identifying the terrible 4th beast of Daniel 7. Revelation 20:4 states, “And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of the testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God�. This verse references the war of Revelation 12 between the dragon (satan) and those who “hold to the testimony of Jesus�. The text specifically refers to those who have been beheaded. Beheading is a primary means of execution used by Islam throughout the centuries on its conquered populations and is recommended in the Hadiths and Quran – “When you meet the unbelievers, smite their necks� (Quran 47:4), “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike [them] upon the necks� (Quran 8:12).



The Kingdom has Ten Horns.

Daniel 7states that the beast has 10 horns. Muhammad’s first “leadership council� was composed of ten men (the “Companions�) - Abu Bakr Siddiq, U'mar-e-Farooq, Uthman Bin Affaan, Ali Ibn Abi Talib, Abdur-Rahman bin Aaowf, Sad ibn Abi Waqqas, Said ibn Zayd, Abu Ubaydah bin Jirrah, Talhah ibn Ubaydullah, Zubayr bin Al-Awam. From these ten leaders, the first four caliphs of Islam were named. Ali, the eventual Imam of Shiite Islam was a member of this group, and the 4th caliph chosen from among the Companions. All of these ten served Muhammad and Islam at the same time, they were not successive “kings� over extended periods of time. Following Muhammad’s unexpected death in 632AD, the Ten Companions took on the roles previously filled by Muhammad until his death: they became the military leaders, the decision makers, and the religious guides all at the same time.



Little Horn vs Three other horns

The Bible says Daniel 7:8 – “While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth uttering great boasts�. The first three caliphs, Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman, were originally accepted by all Muslims; but then, after the Battle of Karbala in 680 AD, Shiites no longer considered them legitimate. Shiites and Sunnis divided into two sects. From that point forward, Ali and his descendants by Fatima, Muhammad’s daughter and Ali’s wife, were considered by Shiites to be the only legitimate successors to Muhammad. Ali was, in a practical sense for Shiites, retroactively made the first successor to Muhammad effective with Muhammad’s death in 632. The “little horn� is Ali ibn Abi Talib (and the Shiite sect of Islam), who rose from among the ten horns (Companions), as one of the Ten, and then pulled out three of the horns (Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattab, and Uthman ibn Affan, the first three caliphs of Islam) by their roots.



Changing times and laws

Daniel 7:25 – “and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law�. The beginning of the Islamic era as the “Hijra�, the flee of Muhammad and his followers (about 5) from Mecca to Medina. The date is July 16, 622AD. Muslims date their calendar with this date. This is the change that this kingdom makes to the “times�. The concept of Shari’a - literally, the “way to the watering hole� is the organization and structure of theocratic law for Muslims. This is the change that this kingdom makes to the “laws�.

Abomination of desolation – location, location, location.

The Quran claims that Muhammad went to God in heaven from Mount Moriah and that the biblical prophets were less important than him and helped him on his way to God - a slander to those who dwell in heaven (Revelation 13:6).



Mount Moriah where the Third Temple will be built and where the antichrist will rule from seems to be of great importance to muslims, even though the name ‘Jerusalem’ is not even mentioned anywhere in the Quran. It is only mentioned in the Hadiths, like for example where it says that the Mahdi will occupy Jerusalem (Tirmidhi in Ali Ibn Zubair Ali – Signs of Quymayah) and will rule from there. The Quran talks about the Al-aqsa mosque, but the Al-aqsa mosque did not even exist during the life of Mohamed and was built ~80 years after his death. Apart from the fictitious night journey of Muhammad to this mosque which did not even exist in his lifetime and a fake giant human footprint muslims have carved there, Jerusalem has no importance for islam whatsoever except if you take into account the end-times scenario. So why then is the Dome of the Rock placed on top of the Mountain of God? How does a Muslim shrine end up in Jerusalem? Islam’s birthplace is Medina on the Arabian Peninsula. Its holiest city, Mecca, is not far away. Yet, the Dome of the Rock is in Jerusalem, hundreds of miles to the West. Why did the spirit named “angel Gabriel� in the Quran bother to take Muhammad to Jerusalem to “ascend to Heaven� in the first place? Why not just ascend from Mecca or Medina? Wouldn’t that have accentuated the supremacy of Islam over all religions, Judaism, Christianity, as well as Zoroastrianism, the ancient religion of the Persians? What’s more, why construct such a mammoth religious structure, the Dome of the Rock, which serves no religious purpose in and of itself (the Dome is not used by Muslims as a worship center for prayer or worship, it just sits there)?

According to the Bible, it is on the highest point of Mount Moriah that the Ark of the Covenant sat (and thus the place where God dwelled, the Tabernacle). Through the Dome of the Rock, the god of the muslims, “allah�, blasphemes against God.

Matthew 24:15 – “Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; let him who is on the housetop not go down to get the things out that are in his house�. The event Jesus is referring took place in the second century BC(167 BC). The Greek military leader, Antiochus Epiphanes (whom Daniel 8:9 refers to as the “rather small horn� of the 3rd beast, Greece), had attacked and plundered Jerusalem and erected an altar to Zeus in the Temple followed by the sacrifice of a swine on the altar. Thereafter, Antiochus prohibited the sacrifices of any animals in the Temple for a period of approximately three and a half years. In the Dome of the Rock’s construction, the same blasphemy is committed in Islam’s erection of their shrine to Muhammad. The Dome stands on the holy place, over the prior location of the Ark of the Covenant, and specifically, the Foundation Stone – the Rock.



Islamic texts show that the cult has a specific problem with Jesus Christ. Muslims seem more concerned about stating who Jesus Christ is not, than they are in saying who Muhammad is! So what is the real purpose of the walls of the Dome of the Rock? To protect the Rock? The Rock is exposed, solid rock. To protect something inside the Dome? The only thing inside the Dome is the Rock, itself. So what is the purpose of the walls? The writings on the walls answer this - the inscriptions inside and outside the Dome are a further blasphemy against God. The inscriptions on the inner octagonal walls include: “Jesus son of Mary, was only a Messenger of Allah … and say not 'Three' – Cease! … Far be it removed from His transcendent majesty that He should have a son … The Messiah will never scorn to be a servant unto Allah … bless Your Messenger and Your servant Jesus son of Mary … It befitteth not (the Majesty of) Allah that He should take unto Himself a son�. Similarly, on the outer octagonal wall the following Arabic inscription is found: “He begetteth not nor was begotten … Praise be to Allah, Who hath not taken unto Himself a son�.



It seems as if the spirit of islam wants to reserve this spot for himself. The Third Temple will probably be built on top of Mount Moriah and the Mahdi will install himself there, but this does not change the fact that islam has already commited the blasphemies against God connected with this location.



A Fatal Wound to the Head

A common interpretation of the wound that heals is that it is the end of the islamic ottoman caliphate in the early 20th century that will be revived by the Mahdi. There will probably be a revived caliphate in the end times, or at least an alliance of islamic states, but this interpretation is too superficial and leaves out many details.

The beast from the sea and the 4th beast of Daniel 7 are both Islam by virtue of their common characteristics; but they depict Islam at different time periods. Daniel 7 depicts Islam in two stages – its birth (Daniel 7:7-8; 19-20); and its death and judgment (Daniel 7:9-11; 24-26). Revelation 13:1-10 depicts Islam throughout human history. This depiction includes Muhammad as its head; and continues through all seven of Islam’s successive empires. Muhammad was the “head that dies� and six empires succeeded him until the end of the ottoman caliphate.



One thing is clear – one of the 7 heads is very significant. This head is the only one of the seven that seems to warrant special mention. The text tells us that the head is slain (islamic texts tell us how : what will "allah" do to a false prophet - Quran 69:44-46 - "allah" will cut the aorta of false prophets; how did muhammad feel in his dying seconds - Bukhari 5:59:713- " I feel as if my aorta is being cut"). Why is the death of this head so important that it is worth making special mention of? The head represents Muhammad. His death should have ended Islam. But it did not - “I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed� (Revelation 13:3). One of the leaders (a head of the beast) dies. Yet, there is a healing that takes place. At first glance, one might read the text to mean that the head, i.e., the leader, is healed from his fatal wound. But does “his� refer to the “head� or to the “beast� from whom the head protrudes? One might expect a wound to the head to impact the body the head is attached to. The following verses clarify the meaning: Revelation 13:12-14 “And he [the beast from the earth] makes the earth … to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed …And he deceives those who dwell on the earth … telling those

who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who had the wound of the sword and has come to life.� Both verses 12 and 14 refer to the “beast� not the “head� as the one whose wound is healed.



So the head dies but the wounded beast recovers. Having concluded that the “head that is slain� is that of Muhammad, we have a hint as to the meaning of the remaining six heads. They must be similar in function to that of Muhammad for they are all “heads�. Consider the following list of the seven empires or dynasties that ruled Islamdom, beginning with Muhammad and the four “Rightly Guided Caliphs� : >>>1) Muhammad (622 - 632AD), followed by his first four successors (the Rightly GuidedCaliphs):Abu Bakr (632-634), Umar (634-644), Uthman (644-656), Ali (656-661) >>>2) 1st Empire: Umayyads - Syria (661-749) >>>3 ) 2nd Empire: Abbasids11 - Baghdad (749-932) >>>4) 3rd Empire - Baghdad: Buyids (or Buwayids) (932-1055) and in Egypt: Fatimids (Ismailis) (909-1171) >>>5) 4th Empire - Baghdad: Seljuk Turks (1055 - 1194) and in Egypt: Ayyubids (1169-1260) >>>6) 5th Empire - Baghdad: Seljuk Turks (1055 - 1194) and in Egypt: Mamluks (1260-1517) - Egypt and Syria >>>7) Ottomans (1342-1924). Historians refer to the Umayyads as the 1st “dynasty� of Islam following the death of Muhammad. The first four caliphs, although considered successors to Muhammad, are not considered “dynasties� by historians but referred to as individual successors to Muhammad, each serving for a relatively short period of time.



Ten Diadems on Ten Horns.

Revelation 13:1 – “And he stood on the sand of the seashore. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names�. Ten diadems on ten horns, not on seven heads! If you count the dinastyes in the list above (about the 6 empires after Muhammad) you will see that numbers 4), 5) and 6) have 2 simultaneous empires each:

1. Muhammad (the first head with the first horn that is slain)

2. Umayyads (the second head with the second horn; and 1st dynasty)

3. Abbasids (the third head with the third horn; and 2nd dynasty)

4. Buyids (the fourth head with fourth horn; and 3rd dynasty)

5. Fatimids (the fourth head with fifth horn; and 3rd dynasty)

6. Seljuks (the fifth head with sixth horn; and 4th dynasty)

7. Ayyubids (the fifth head with seventh horn; and 4th dynasty)

8. Mongols (the sixth head with eighth horn; and 5th dynasty)

9. Mamluks (the sixth head with ninth horn; and 5th dynasty)

10. Ottomans (the seventh head with tenth horn; and 6th dynasty).



The seven heads each have a horn. In addition, the 4th, 5th, and 6th heads each have two horns. The three heads with two horns are shown in the table by two caliphs “competing� with one another – one from Baghdad, the other from Egypt. The diadems on each horn signify the representative caliph, sultan, amir, or king of the particular dynasty. For this purpose, it really doesn’t matter that they served during the same time, just that they served. Their service is marked by the presence of a horn; the diadem represents the caliphate or dynasty.

The Whore of Babylon

This is the entire Arabian Peninsula and the (scarlet) beast it rides is the same one in Revelation 13:1 (only they are at different points in time).

Revelation 17:3 – “And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness; and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet , and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a gold cup full of abominations and of the unclean things of her immorality, and upon her forehead a name was written, a mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and of the abominations of the earth.�



From this verse and others in Revelations we know that:

- its colors are red and purple - purple for royalties (plenty there) and red for the blood of Christian “saints� (martyrdom of Christians at the hands of islam started from the Arabian peninsula).

- It is very rich (arabs are).

- Is it corrupt in every way possible (literally, and she also leads the world in the pursuit of false religion ) - see bellow.

- “the mother of harlots and of the abominations of the earth� – abominations are paganisms which Arabia is the mother of (it’s where islam was born).

- The harlot possesses something that the entire world desires, and, in fact, is addicted to (Revelations 17:2, 18:3, 14:8) – oil (see bellow).

- The harlot’s “wine of her immorality� has made the businessmen of the world, wealthy and great (Rev 18:3, 18:19, 18:23)- see bellow.

- The kings of the earth have committed “immorality� with the harlot (Rev 17:2, 18:3) – both muslims and non muslims say arabs are corrupt (see bellow).

- The harlot is blinded by her arrogance; she believes her “fruit� will always be present (Rev 18:5,7) – see bellow.

- The harlot sits on seven mountains - “mountains� in the Bible is a word used a lot for “kingdoms� or “kings� and the Arabian peninsula is divided into 7 kindoms/states.

- The harlot will be hated by those whom she is associated with. Her associates will destroy her in one hour (Rev 17:16, 18:10, 18:17) – see bellow.

- Sits on many waters (nations) – there are many different tribes in Arabia and they also control many people in the world through their influence.



When will the Scarlet Beast and the Harlot Appear?

The scarlet beast has ten horns and seven heads. The ten horns represent ten kings, all of a future period: Revelation 17:12 - "And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour�.

Revelation 17:14 tells us that the specific time period being described is the period when the scarlet beast wages war against the Lamb (Jesus Christ - John 1:36), and the Lamb overcomes the beast. This is the same period, the same holy war, the same victory, that is prophesied in Daniel 2:44 and Daniel 7:9-11, 26-27. In this period, the Ancient of Days takes His seat on the throne of judgment as the “beast is slain� and its “body destroyed and given to the burning fire� (Daniel 7:11). It is the period of the Last Days, the period of judgment (the Arabian Peninsula was an unknown part of the world until 2-3 generations ago).



Wine of immorality

1. The harlot is very wealthy (Rev 17:4);

2, The harlot possesses something that the entire world desires (Rev 17:2, 18:3, 14:8);

3. The harlot’s “wine of her immorality� has made the businessmen of the world, wealthy and great (Rev18:3, 18:19, 18:23);.

4. The “kings of the earth� have committed immorality with the harlot (Rev 17:2).



What does the Arabian Peninsula possess that everybody wants? OIL. Almost every time the phrase “wine of her immorality� appears, it is accompanied by another word that means: wealth, commerce, or business.



The Seven Mountains Upon Which the Woman Sits

The Greek word in this passage is horos. Of the sixty-five occurrences of this word in the New Testament, only three are rendered "hill" by the King James Version. The remaining sixty-two are translated as "mountain" or “mount�. Mountains are common biblical symbols, often symbolizing whole kingdoms (Psalms 68:15; Daniel 2:35; Amos 4:1, 6:1; etc). The Whore’s seven mountains might be seven kingdoms she reigns over, or seven kingdoms with which she has something in common.



There are “7 kingdoms� in the Arabian Peninsula : Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Yemen.



The Immorality of the harlot and of the kings of the Earth.

Revelation 17:2 - “with whom the kings of the earth committed acts of immorality, and those who dwell on the earth were made drunk with the wine of her immorality�. Three verses include the phrase the “wine of her immorality� (Rev 14:8, 17:2, 18:3). Think about petroleum from a spiritual perspective. Suppose this gift of God is used outside of God’s intended purpose? Suppose it is used as a weapon (embargo)? Would that be spiritually immoral? Suppose it is used as a means of gaining extravagant wealth by certain groups while at the same time creating life threatening hardship on the part of other groups? Would that be spiritually immoral? Suppose it is used as a means to glorify those who possess it? That is, suppose the profits from the oil are used to construct monuments, palaces, to those who live in them instead of helping the poor? Would that be spiritually immoral?



The world’s addiction to cheap oil and Saudi petrodollars caused us to turn a blind eye to their culture of bribery, its abysmal human rights record, and its financial support of fundamentalist Islamic groups that have been directly linked to international acts of terror, its continuous attempts to spread islam around the world by using the mass-media and corrupting officials (how many times have you heard important people or TV programs saying “islam is a religion of peace� when it’s clearly the opposite?), the building of fundamentalist islamic education centers all around the world, etc.

Moreover, the islamic world also thinks of them as corrupt, because their alignment with the West for protection and their support of wars against various islamic regimes in the past.



The Judgment of the Harlot

Revelation 17:16-17 – “And the ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and will burn her up with fire. For God has put it in their hearts to execute His purpose by having a common purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be fulfilled�.



It’s important to remember that Arabia is not mentioned in the alliance of countries that will attack Israel in the end days and that the islamic world hates them. The text states about the 10 horns: 1) They receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour (Rev 17:12). 2) They give their power and authority to the beast for that hour (Rev 17:13). 3) God has put it in their hearts to execute His purpose by having a common purpose (Rev 17:17).



The scarlet beast and her ten heads are given authority for one hour, and that authority is then given to the scarlet beast. In other words, the scarlet beast is “appointed� leader of the group of eleven by the members of the group of ten. Having appointed the beast as their leader, the members of the group join forces to accomplish their task, including giving all their power and authority to their new leader. The group appears not to have aligned itself together prior to this event. Hence, the ten are independent of one another; yet, they are similar for they are each one of ten heads. The beast however is not “one of the ten� but belongs to the seven heads : Revelation 17:11 – “And the beast which was and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is one of the seven, and he goes to destruction�.



The scarlet beast and the ten horns appear to be from “opposing� sides – sunni and shia. The beast is an eighth head, and is one of the seven, but it is not an eleventh horn. Yet, the ten horns give their authority to the beast, who belongs to the seven. The scarlet beast might be Shia and the ten heads Sunni. The Sunni would yield their authority to the Shia for one hour because a greater purpose can be achieved than the differences that have historically separated the two sects. The greater common purpose is the destruction of the harlot, Arabia : Revelation 17:16 - “And the ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and will burn her up with fire�.



Revelation 18 says this about the harlot’s judgment:

à It will be quick – in one hour;

à No one will come near her for fear of being impacted by what torments;

à Her destruction will be accompanied by “pestilence�;

à Her destruction will include a fiery annihilation;

à Her destruction will be accompanied by great amounts of smoke;

à The kingdoms will suffer a complete destruction;

A sudden attack (possibly with nuclear weapons) and destruction of the oil fields would not only fulfill these prophecies, but also allow the antichrist system to gain the upper hand on the civilized world whose armies need the oil. As it is, there is no way muslims would ever defeat the rest of the world, but if the oil would stop flowing, they would have complete freedom in the Middle East – the rest of the world would be in chaos and their armies powerless. It is interesting to note that jihadists have often formulated such threats in the past, as a means to hurt the West.



“Kings from the East�

Revelation 16:12 – “And the sixth angel poured out his bowl upon the great river, the Euphrates; and its water was dried up, that the way might be prepared for the kings from the east�. The kings from the east are the sons of Ishmael - Genesis tells us that he and the other sons of Abraham that would not be part of the cgosen people were sent to the east.



Did the waters of the River somehow keep the kings from the East at bay before this event? Or, perhaps, it has nothing to do with the literal River Euphrates needing to be “dried up� so the kings can attack. Perhaps the waters of the River are only metaphorical; perhaps the text is telling us that something will happen in the Last Days that will allow the Muslims an advantage; an advantage so important, that without it, they are unable to wage jihad?

And, what is the preparation of the way for? Verse 16:15 tells us: the Battle of Armageddon, that final battle between the friends of satan and the people of God. The “preparation of the way� will allow the kings from the East, i.e., Muslims, to accomplish something they would not otherwise be able to accomplish. This could be the destruction of the Arabian oil fields and the resulting economic crisis which would impact the entire civilized world.



The Caliphate that Has Not Yet Come

The previous caliphate of the Sunnite Ottomans declined to the point of its abolishment in the early 20th century. The caliphate will be revived by the Mahdi.



Heads of the Beast

In Daniel 7, in verse 17, the fourth beast is specifically referred to as a king. In verse 24, the fourth beast is referred to as a kingdom. They are interchanged thereby allowing the interpreter to view the king and the kingdom as one and the same head of the beast:



The Heads of the Scarlet Beast (Revelation 17:10):

Seven kings, “five have fallen�;
2. One king, “is�;
3. One king “has not yet come,� but when he comes, “he must remain a little while.�;



The Scarlet Beast (Revelation 17:8, 11):

The beast “was�;
The beast “is not�;
The beast is, himself, an “eighth head�,
The beast is “about to come up from the abyss�;
The beast is “one of the seven�;



Revelation 17:8 tells us the scarlet beast “was,� “is not� and “is about to come up from the abyss.� This is the “Hidden Imam;� the Twelfth Imam of the Twelver branch of Shia Islam, Muhammad al-Mahdi, the Islamic “savior�. Muslims wait for him to appear from a well in the Jamkaran mosque in Iran. The scarlet beast is the Antichrist. He is called Abaddon in Last Day’s prophecies; and Islam calls him Mahdi.



The beast from the sea had seven heads. We have seen that they represent Islam throughout its history up to the Last Days. The scarlet beast has seven heads. They are the same heads as those of the beast from the sea. The beast from the sea is Islam up until the Last Days. The scarlet beast is Islam in the Last Days. The seven heads represent Muhammad and the six Islam’s caliphates that follow his death in 632AD

Five Fallen, One is, One has not Yet Come:

The five “fallen� heads are the five empires of Islam beginning with the Ummayyads through the Mongols.
The head that “is� represents Islam after the overthrow of the fifth of five overthrown (“fallen�) dynasties - the Ummayyads, Abbasids, Buyids, Seljuk Turks, and Mongols. The successor empire to the Mongols was the Ottomans. The Ottomans continued as the caliphate of Islam through 1924. The Ottomans are not included in our count of “five fallen� empires because the Ottomans were not overthrown (they were not defeated by a successor Islamic state which lay claim to the caliphate), rather, the Ottomans “repealed� Islamic law and abolished the caliphate. The “is� head of the beast is Islam as a spiritual empire that exists after the five fallen dynasties, continuing up to the coming of the last caliphate. After the Ottomans, the spiritual empire of Islam will exist, but no longer will it be identified by a clan or nation as its “caliphate.� The center of Islam will be unidentifiable. Islam’s sectarian lines will be drawn; disunity will insure they continue as such. Yet, the coming head of the beast, the eighth head, prophesizes that disunity will not be perpetual. It will one day end; and Islam will no longer exists in the nameless state of “is.�
The head that “has not yet come, and when he comes he must remain a little while� is the last caliphate of Islam that will rise up in the Last Days. The Bible says this kingdom will last for a short period of time. Since this head represents the last head, the period within which this head will dominate is defined by scripture for us – seven years, the period referred to biblically as the “tribulation period� (Daniel 9:27, Revelation 7:14, Matthew 24:21). This period will include the entering into a seven year covenant with the “prince who is to come� (Daniel 9:26), the Antichrist.



The Scarlet Beast is the “Eighth Head:

Revelation 17:10 tells us the seven heads of the scarlet beast are seven “kings,� and 17:11 tells us that the beast is an “eighth� and “one of the seven.� So then, for the beast to be an “eighth� means that he is the eighth king. If we count beginning with Muhammad through the Ottomans, we count seven. As the next caliph, the scarlet beast is the 8th king.

But how can the beast be the eighth king, and at the same time be “one of the seven�? The scarlet beast is “one of the seven� in the sense that it will also be a “caliphate� of Islam. This “caliphate� will be “one of the seven,� not because it is a member of the seven but because it is the successor to the seventh caliphate, the Ottomans. This would make the scarlet beast the eighth head of the beast, and the eighth and final caliphate of Islam.

For many radical Islamist movements (including Muslim Brotherhood working behind the scenes everywhere from USA to the “arab spring�) who identify the root cause of the Muslim world’s problems as a decline in spirituality and religious observance, the restoration of the Caliphate is a priority.



The eighth caliphate of Islam will have to have a caliph. Revelation 17:8 tells us who he will be - "The beast that you saw was and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and to go to destruction�. We have already identified him as the Mahdi. Biblically, he is called Abaddon (Revelation 9:11), the destroyer. Christians call him Antichrist.



The Antichrist will Subdue Three Kings/Kingdoms.

Daniel 7 - “and the meaning of the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, and before which three of them fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth uttering great boasts, and which was larger in appearance than its associates … As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three kings�.



In the Last Days before the return of Christ, ten Muslim nations or groups will come together. At the same time, a leader (the “other� horn) will arise. This leader will “comeup� (7:20) and will subdue three of the ten horns. The leader is the Mahdi. He emerges from within Shia Islam. Sunnis will not follow a Shiite leader – unless they are forced to. They could be Arabian states or some other sunni country. After the destruction of three major Sunni nations, the rest of Islam will submit to al-Mahdi – either willingly or unwillingly. Muslims will see the success of al-Mahdi as the will of Allah. They will count him as favored by Allah because of his success, and worthy of the caliphate.



---



The Mahdi will then move on to fulfill the rest of the prophecies – make a 7 year peace with Israel, and half way through it he will set himself in the Third Temple and end the sacrifice, start bloody persecutions and force everyone to take the Mark of the Beast and become muslim, etc until the final battle or Armageddon when Jesus Christ will come to rescue the remaining Christians (all remaining jews will be messianic jews by then), destroy islam, defeat the muslims and lock Satan (“allah�) up.



Islam means “submission�. An islamic practice instituted by Muhammad requires an oath of allegiance (bay’ah) to the caliph. Muslims will bind themselves to the Caliph Mahdi. Bay’ah means “sell�. Matthew 5:34 tells us to take no oaths since they come only from Satan.



---



Other signs



à Revelations 6 - “the pale horse went south and Death sat on him and Hell followed him and he was given power to kill with the sword and hunger and the beasts of the world�; this "horse" will have authority over 1/4 of the Earth... The meaning of the original Greek word is interpreted as “pale� in the King James Bible, but the word chloros (khlo-ros') also means greenish, or pale green. This word (chloros) is also used in 3 other places in the bible: Mark 6:39, Revelation 8:7 and Revelation 9:4. In all three of these other places it was interpreted correctly as green. This horse was also given power over the fourth part of the earth. Since we know these horses are spirits, it is very interesting that the color of Islam is green (their flags, etc.), and that almost a fourth of the Earth’s population is muslim.

à The false prophet of Revelations will be the “prophet Isa� ("Yasu" is Jesus in arabic) of islam. He is supposed to come and help the Mahdi by performing miracles and make all people convert to islam by deception and violence. The “prophet jesus� will appear (Quran 43:61) and will do miracles and destroy Christianity (Bukhari 3:34:425) and try to make everyone muslim (Bukhari 4:55:658). Muslims often try to deceive people to convert to their cult and deny Christ by telling them that they too “believe in Jesus� but forget to say that their “jesus� is a killer - The islamic prophet Isa (Jesus) “will fight the people for the cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine� (Sunan Abu Dawud 37:4310), “he will break the Cross and kill the pigs� (Bukhari 4:55:657). Also, the Gospel means nothing for this Jesus – “the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you and he will judge people by the Law of the Quran and not by the law of Gospel� (Bukhari 4:55:658). P.S. "Every non-believer who smells the odor of his body will die" (Sahih Muslim 40:7015).

à The Dajjal (the islamic antichrist; full name “Messiah, Ad-Dajjal� - Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 4.649) is Jesus Christ. Here’s what Christian and islamic texts say about His coming : Jesus Christ will appear on a white horse and fight the antichrist and the false prophet( Rev 19:11) ....... The dajjal will appear on a white donkey(Mishkaat Masaabih 5423) and will fight the mahdi and “prophet jesus�. He will be the leader of the jews, and army of 70,000 jews (Sahih Muslim 6979, 7034). What He brings is Hell and Heaven but they are actually inverted – Heaven and Hell (Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 4:554). Jesus Christ will have a name on Him that only He can read(Revelation 19:12) versus “The word 'Kafir' (unbeliever) is written [on the Dajjal� (Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 9:505). “He will come to the people and invite them (to a wrong religion)� - Sahih Muslim Hadith 7015.

à Image of the beast. The false prophet will make an image which will speak and make people worship it or be beheaded ( Rev 13:15) ....... The black stone in kaaba to which all muslims have to prostrate will have eyes and a mouth and will testify for good muslims (Tawaf of Qudum (Arrival), Shaykh Nasiruddin Al-Albani). “Image� in the Bible can be a religious or national symbol (Hosea 3:4), or can be a meteorite (Acts 19:35) like the one in Mecca.

à Mark of the Beast. A beast will give evil people a mark ( revelation 14:9) ....... A Beast will come out of the earth (Quran 27:82) and muslims will take the Mark of this Beast (Abu Dawud Musnad At-Tayalisi 334 - note: there are 2 collectors of Hadiths named Abu Dawud). The mysterious “sign of the beast� (originally translated as 616 and later as 666) as it appears in the earliest greek copies of Revelations is identical to the arab symbols for “in the name of allah� followed by the crossed swords. This sign is found on the badges worn by muslims on their Forehead and Arm (google “shahada headband� for a picture). This is a badge of servitude (the Quran says that muslims are “slaves of allah�). In John’s time the use of the charagma (“mark� in the Bible) was used for slaves as a badge of servitude. Islamic texts (Tirmidhi 2639) say that if you take the badge your sins are forgiven. When taking it (or today when saying the Shahada to convert) you deny Jesus Christ the Son of God. Since the phrase “whole earth� that would be under the control of the Mahdi refers to the Middle Eastern LAND as we have discussed, the restrictions on buying and selling conditionate on the acceptance of the Mark of the Beast probably refer only to non-muslims trapped in islamic countries.

à “Gospel of Barnabas�. The islamic texts say something about a Bible being found which will be used by the Mahdi and the false “prophet jesus� to convice people to become muslim. This is probably not the fake “gospel of Barnabas� so I will only say that this is a middle age fake which not only contradicts known facts and the Bible, but also contradicts the Quran and other islamic texts.

à One-eyed Mahdi. Muhammad took a lot of stories in the Bible and repackaged them and sold them to whoever listened to him as “revelations�, including Zechariah 11:17 which says that the antichrist (Mahdi) will initially have two eyes but then God will hurt one of his eyes. Islamic texts say that the Dajjal will be one-eyed and the Mahdi will have two healthy eyes so the muslims will not suspect anything when the Mahdi loses an eye, since when he first appears he will have two eyes.

The Vatican, the “1260 years�, the “people of the Prince�, etc.



The Vatican has been antichristian since day 1, but this (the claim that the Vatican “lived for 1260 years and then died and resurrected in the 20th century�) is a clear example of “private interpretation� of Prophecy forbidden by the Bible (2 Peter 1:20) – twisting of historical facts and/or verses to fit a personal opinion.



1260 days are 3.5 prophetic years – the last 3.5 years of the reign of the antichrist and persecution of Jews and Christians in the Middle East. The time period is not measured in years but in days. This is clear when we consider all places where this time period is mentioned and we see that it is from the end times (when we know the rule of the Antichrist will be 7 years, not 2520):



- Daniel 12:7 - “It shall be for a time, times and half a time (3 and half= 1260 prophetic days/years) when the power of the holy people has been shattered, all these shall be finished� - Daniel 12:1 makes it clear that the prophecy is about the end times and the second coming of Christ. Also, Holy people in the Bible are the JEWS and Christians – Deuteronomy 7:6, 1eter 2:9, Isaiah 62:12, etc.

- Daniel 7:25 – “He (the stout horn) shall persecute the saints of the most high and shall intend to change times and law. Then the saints shall be given into his hand for a time, times and half a time�.

- Rev. 12:6 - “And the woman fled into the wilderness where she has a place prepared by God, where she was nourished for 1260 days� – this verse and the following should clear all confusion between days and years :

- Rev. 12:13-14 - “And the dragon persecuted the woman...she flew into the wilderness...where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time...�

- Rev. 13:5-7 – “(The sea beast) is given authority to continue for 42 months (1260 days) … and it is granted to him to make war with the saints and overcome them�.



The other time period of Daniel 12, of 1290 days (Daniel 12:11), probably means that between the stopping of the daily sacrifice and the setting up of the “abomination that causes desolation� there is a 30 days break. Another thing that shows that these are days and not years is the remaining period of Daniel 12, the 1335 days which an individual has to “wait� – nobody lives 1335 years in our current atmospheric conditions. This could refer to the period from the building of the Temple (after the conquest of Jerusalem by the Mahdi and inside the 7 year “peace� treaty) and the end.



Not only that these don’t refer to years but days, but even if you take them as years, there is nothing connecting the Vatican to these 3 time periods unless you let your imagination loose and force the prophecies to fit your private views… As flawed as it is, the “1260 years� interpretation linking the Vatican to prophecy is one of the “strongest� arguments of those pushing this theory. The Vatican simply does not fit the rest of the prophecies or facts have to be grossly distorted in order for it to match the Scripture.



Two other prophecies that are twisted to fit the Vatican are the ones related to the “deadly wound� and the “people of the Prince that shall come�.

The “healed deadly wound� criteria that the Vatican supposedly meets is discussed above – it is a wound deadly to one of the heads, not to the Beast itself.
The people from which the Antichrist arises, and which have destroyed the Temple in 70 AD thus fulfilling the prophecy of Daniel 9:26, were the descendants of Ishmael, mainly arabs, Syrians, Egyptians, etc. They were indeed under roman rule, but the prophecy is about the “people� and not the “ruler� that destroyed the Temple in 70 AD. Publius Cornelius Tacitus in his works, the Annals and the Histories, says that the army included the 12th, 18th and 3rd legions which had Syrian and Egyptian men. He also says that apart from the legions, a large contingent of arabs was used, who he says “hated the Jews�. Titus Favius Josephus (“The Complete Works of Josephus, The Wars of the Jews� , “The History of the Destruction of Jerusalem�)also says that the legions that attacked Jerusalem were the syrian ones and the ones stationed in the neighboring areas, along with auxiliaries recruited from these lands and with “Arab soldiers who joined forces with the invading armies�. Of the 6 roman legions that took part in the attack only one was not from the Middle East - Legion V Macedonia : Legion X Fretensis: from Syria, Legion XV Appolinaris: Syria, Legion XII Fulminata: Asia Minor/Syria, Legion XVIII: Egypt, Legion III Gallica: Syria. Lawrence J.F. Keppie, author of “Legions And Veterans: Roman Army Papers� confirms this reality when he states that after 68 AD, “the legions…consist[ed] almost exclusively of provincials.� Virtually all scholars agree with this. Flavius Josephus says that the invading army numbered 60,000 soldiers. The four full legions and the 2 partial ones amounted to roughly 25,000 people (one legion had 5000 soldiers) with the remaining being arab auxiliaries. This means that out of the entire army only the Macedonian Legion could have had a non-arab majority, with around 95% of the army being descendants of Ishmael. Not only were they non-western, but they were also pagans practicing the cult of (you’ve guessed it) the celestial bodies – Tacitus says about the Legion 3 Gallica that in 69 AD its (syrian) soldiers were “saluting the rising Sun according to the custom of Syria�.

Is Jerusalem the Whore of Babylon ?

Some people say that Revelation 11:8 is evidence that Jerusalem is the whore of Babylon because it talks about a “great city�. This is obviously not the case – Jerusalem fits almost no prophecy about the whore of Babylon (for example, we know from the rest of the Bible such as Zechariah 14 that it will never be destroyed completely like the whore of Babylon) and just because the Bible speaks of a “great city� doesn’t mean that the city it the whore of Babylon. Revelation 11 does not talk at all about the whore of Babylon. None of the literal cities mentioned in the Bible are it.

Is the Antichrist jewish ?

Daniel 11:37 says that the Antichrist will not respect the gods of his fathers, and many people say this means he will be jewish or part-jewish. The verse is not clear enough to draw such conclusion. Moreover, the "father" of the ishmaelite Mahdi was Abraham. Also, the "god of his fathers" can be a false god - that of islam; all we know that the Antichrist will abandon his previous religion and install himself in the Temple and ask to be worshipped as a god; his previous religion can be anything.

------------------------------------



Signs of the end.

There are no definite signs which we can use to pinpoint an individual as the Mahdi/Antichrist until he signs the 7 year peace treaty with Israel, following a conflict in the Middle East; the Bible only tells us about increases in natural disasters, famines and wars (this seems to be happening at the moment). There are however a few things which must happen before that.



Israel must return to the Holy Land. This has happened just as prophesized :

- The persecution and flee from Israel to start after the Crucifiction of the Messiah : Amos 8:9-12, Hosea 3:4-5.

- The beginning of the return to Israel : Ezekiel 20:34, Isaiah 11:11-12.

The Bible must reach every corner of the Earth. Matthew 24:14 – “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come�. This has pretty much happened.



The destruction of Damascus in one day (probably from a nuclear attack). It is not clear whether this will happen before or after the revealing of the antichrist/Mahdi. If it happens before, it could be as a result of the conflict in which Israel is engaged just before the Mahdi comes to the scene and signs the 7 year peace treaty. No matter when the destruction of Damascus takes place, the Mahdi will be in power before the start of the 7 year tribulation, so the forming of the caliphate is the sign of the beginning of the end.



Finally, since many people wrongly rely on the so-called “parable of the fig tree�, a few words on it. Is the parable of the fig tree really about the establishment of Israel in 1948 ? Firstly, this is NOT a prophecy, just a comparison between a series of signs and the leaves of a tree (the fig tree is not really a good symbol for Israel by the way). The part before the parable is a list of signs preceding the end of the world. Then comes the parable in verse 32 and the explanation in verse 33 which basically says that the "leaves" are the signs mentioned before the parable - "when yee shall see these signs", not “when yee shall see THIS sign (the parable itself)�. So the paragraph says we should watch for all those signs, not for the fig tree (Israel) putting forth leaves (becoming a state). That said, most of these are happening right now, except the ones taking place right before and during tribulation (there is nothing else left to fulfill actually, except the end-times prophecies).

For more details about the end-times prophecies, read the Bible.

P.S. there is no pre-tribulation rapture.

What Satan wants from you -

Not to receive Christ and become a “born again� Christian, to live a miserable (spiritual) life, and (if applicable) to help with his agenda. The only way you (muslim or non-muslim) can avoid being in any of these 3 categories is to do :



What God wants from you -

Receive Christ and live by His New Covenant, including the 10 commandments.



-------------------------------------------------------------​---------------------------------

No matter how things will proceed, it should not be a very important issue for Christians. All Christians have to do is to be aware of the times and just be Christians. If you are a true Christian you will not fall for the deception and you will understand where all the suffering comes from. So if you are with Christ and know about these conspiracies, I recommend you take some time away from researching this and use it to help others find Truth.

Think about it while you read this page …
Ezekiel
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,
3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:
7 And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt answer, For the tidings; because it cometh: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it cometh, and shall be brought to pass, saith the Lord GOD.
9 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD; Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:
12 Cry and howl, son of man: for it shall be upon my people, it shall be upon all the princes of Israel: terrors by reason of the sword shall be upon my people: smite therefore upon thy thigh.
13 Because it is a trial, and what if the sword contemn even the rod? it shall be no more, saith the Lord GOD.
17 I will also smite mine hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the LORD have said it.
20 Appoint a way, that the sword may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are discovered, so that in all your doings your sins do appear; because, I say, that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
25 And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end,
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.
29 Whiles they see vanity unto thee, whiles they divine a lie unto thee, to bring thee upon the necks of them that are slain, of the wicked, whose day is come, when their iniquity shall have an end.
30 Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? I will judge thee in the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.
31 And I will pour out mine indignation upon thee, I will blow against thee in the fire of my wrath, and deliver thee into the hand of brutish men, and skilful to destroy.
32 Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land; thou shalt be no more remembered: for I the LORD have spoken it.


According to a 2002 study by the Jewish Agency, "the number of Jews in the world is declining at an average of 50,000 per year."
