AS
REPORTED BY THE BOOK OF REVELATION
The
Book of Revelation, part of Holy Bible, was written long ago. Some religion
students consider it to be a history book that was conceived by him who could
see all of the picture, to help those who can see what is going to happen, so
they could prepare and guard themselves. CEOs of this world do not see it so
they cannot follow it, it describes what they did in their own future and why.
The picture of this puzzle is now almost complete, said Founder of Endtime
Ministries, Irving Baxter, during his March 22, 2006 appearance on Coast to Coast
show when he has explained most of its details
(his image is linked to CtC
show).
In
the Revelation 9, there is a prophecy of the war that will kill 1/3 of the mankind. Bible teaches that this war will begin from the area of the Euphrates
river, and that an army of 200.000.000 soldiers will participate.
Mao
Tse Thung in his diary boasted that he can put 200.000.000 soldiers on the battlefield, so it
appears that China will be involved in this war that will kill
2 billion human beings.
90%
of Euphrates is in the today’s nation of Iraq. As at this time US have 150.000
troops stationed there, it seems that US has already begun this war that will spin out of control and become the war between the west and Islam.
Book
of Revelation explains why, how, and when this war will start, describes it’s
course, position US and some other nations will have in it, as well as who is behind it.
In
Daniel 7 is described dream Daniel had. He saw 4 beasts: a Lion with Eagle's
wings, a Bear, a Leopard, and ten-horn beast.
The
Revelation in verse 23 says the four beasts shall be the four kingdoms, so these
beasts symbolize the kingdoms or nations. If you read the context of this
chapter you can tell that they will be on the Earth at the time of the
Antichrist.
England
is a mayor nation whose recognized symbol is the lion.
There is some dispute among historians about which English monarch first bore the lion on his cot of arms. Reportedly William the Conqueror, William II, Henry I, and Stephen could have had it, but or Henry II was the first with proven arms depicting lion.
His follower, Richard I, who is better known as Richard The Lionhearted, had a coat of arms with, at first one and then three lions rampant.
Today,
the coat of arms of United Kingdom, which is also the coat of arms of Queen
Elizabeth II, includes a lion rampant, a shield that contains three lions of
Richard I that represent England, and also other heraldic symbols. So, what
Daniel saw was the British
Lion which had Eagle's wings.
Eagle
is well known symbol of the United States of America which is visible on US
Shield and every dollar
bill.
It
is interesting that first settles came to America from Great Britain, and that
colony they
made later on seceded from it becoming sovereign nation. At that occasion Eagle's wings
Lion had tried to
un-pluck themselves for good but had only a partial success because Great
Britain
kept control upon the United States by it's Banks and later on, after the end of
the WWII, by the essence of the Third Reich that was transferred there thru
Paperclip operation.
As Daniel
in 55 BC sow
that Eagle's wings actually broke away from Lion, this could mean that the people of the USA
one day will find the strength to fight
once more to finish the job they have started more then 200 years ago.
Third beast is the Leopard. In medieval heraldry term Leopard was used for lion,
and now is used for the natural beast. It is a symbol of a valiant and hardy
warrior who braves dangers with enduring force and courage.
While
in middle ages Richard I probably taught
that he placed leopard, a fierce beast, on his coat of arms, Germans, who
considered themselves as ultimate warriors, from Hitler's time used name of this beast
to name their main battle tanks.
The
Bible says that dominion is given to this beast. Germany has started last 3 major
wars: Franco - German war in 1870, WWI and WWII, in the effort to rule the
World, seen and unseen.
Bible teaches that one head of this beast was deadly wounded, but that this wound has miraculously healed and that leopard was given dominion upon the nations once more. Third Reich has not only lost the WWII, but it was utterly destroyed and it's remnants were divided in two nations divided by wall, East and West Germany, so it could not wedge war never again. But then came Reagan's administration guided by Paperclip structure and reunited two German nations in one making it whole and live again.
As
the consequence 4th Reich is now rising in the context of the western civilization,
more particularly, in USA and United Europe. Germany
is the most dominant force in the EU right now, and not only there. It controls
most of the world’s banks, science, telecommunications, and industry. Germany
is gaining dominion over other countries again, and owing to her, EU is now on its way to
replace USA as the
world’s prime power.
Fourth beast is ten-horned beast. Each of it’s horns represent a King. It is
one Kingdom but federation of ten nations.
From his studies Mr. Baxter is sure that that there is going to be revival of the Holy Roman Empire. The way he knows this is from Daniel 2:32-35:
"This image's head was of fine gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay. You watched while a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed together, and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; the wind carried them away so that no trace of them was found. And the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth."
Several important details surface immediately.
First, it is an image. The God's revulsion of images of any kind used in worship is well known, the idea that what this image represents is contrary to God is definitely present.
Second, the image's body parts are formed from different materials in descending value. Gold is more valuable than silver, which is more valuable than bronze, etc. Finally, it ends in iron mixed with clay, an amalgam that is practically worthless and useless. However, the order of these materials increases in hardness with the exception of the iron-clay mixture. This symbolizes two aspects of the same idea: While the spiritual, moral or cultural qualities of these empires decline, their military or political increases as one empire overthrows another, perfectly depicting the essence and the course of western society.
Third, it shall not last.
Baxter thinks that legs of iron is the Roman Empire, the feet of iron mingled with wood and clay is what fought the Roman Empire.
The Roman Empire ceased to exist around 300 AD and, the
Holly Roman Empire was not born until 800 AD. This empire was union between the
Church and State. It was born after dark ages, on the December 25, 800, when
Pope Leo III placed spear of destiny on the shoulder and crown on the head of
Charlemagne and crowned him Emperor of the Holly Roman Empire.
For the next 1000 years that is the way the Europe was ruled. Always the dominant
political figure from Europe and dominant spiritual figure from Italy. They were
always in coalition, politics and religion, and they ruled, and the Bible
teaches that this is what is going to happen in the Book of Revelation. There is
an Antichrist, and there is an False Prophet, they are political leader and
spiritual leader working together in this last times. This is why we know it is
coming out of the Europe.
Mingling of the iron and clay - The Holly Roman Empire is being born right now.
The European Union was born in 1957, by the treaty of Rome when the common
market was formed. It has now developed beyond common market and become
political union.
It
has a flag that has 12 stars on the blue background. Nobody knows why there are
just 12 stars, because it is made of 25 member nations now, but when asked about
this, Baxter said, it's designer explained that Catholics believe that the woman with 12
stars above her head in the Revelation 12 is the Virgin Mary, and he felt that
this revival of the Holy Roman Empire should have Roman Catholic flag.
The
book of Revelation in chapter 13 says that the beast with seven heads and ten
horns which has the body of the leopard, the feet of the bear, the mouth of the
lion, the ten horns of the ten-horned kingdom, is composed of four beasts whose
aspects it took over. When they merge they will create a New World Order that
will be ruled by one political and one spiritual leader.
Antichrist and False
Prophet.
As this beast has a mouth of the Lion this means that NWO official language will
be English and that it's front is City of London. A home of Political leader.
Home
of spiritual leader should be in Italy after the change of context, that
started long ago but which has suffered a major seatback because the unforeseen reign of the
Pope John Paul II who succeeded to postpone the WWIII, is completed. As this
must be fully accomplished before the Armageddon, 4th Reich must start the last World War
as soon as possible.
TO THE TIMELINE TO ARMAGEDDON
According to Mr. Baxter, there is a prophecy in the Bible that says that the final 7 years period will
begin with an event called "the confirmation of The Covenant", that
covenant the God made with Abraham 4.000 years ago. The Bible teaches that the
world community and the Antichrist will confirm the Covenant with Israel for the
7 year period after which comes Armageddon.
The
confirmation of the Covenant has to do the 3 things: it has to be the
international agreement, it has to be about the status of the Jerusalem and it
has to define the
borders of the Holy Land.
As we have already seen that, in June 2003, president Bush signed the "Roadmap for
Peace" which deals exactly with this items and that it's validity was confirmed
in the September of the same year by word community in the United Nations.
Was
this the confirmation of the Covenant? Mr. Baxter is not sure, but he is sure
that
the coming war that kills 1/3 of the mankind and that is was to begin in the
area of the Euphrates river, where it appears to be in progress right now, has to
be over and done before the final 3 and 1/2 years, when the great tribulation
begins.
This means that the war in Iraq area must explode during the rest of Bush's
watch. Most probably it will start with US-Israel attack on Syria in an attempt
to make the Promised Land whole before the arrival of Messiah, in attempt to
create deception that the real Israel is trying to clear, at least a part, of an
massive Covenant debt it has created towards God by refusing to recognize his messenger
last time, and not guarding after his people and land.
Mr. Baxter expects that, because of this, those 2 billion people will die during the next 2 or 3
years. He believes that Antichrist will use resulting chaos to implement his NWO in
preparation for Armageddon he believes will win.
There are 4 other factors that support this timeline to Armageddon.
The
bible teaches that the area of the West Bank will be the place of the horrible
slaughter soon, during the Great Tribulation. In Mathew 24 is written that when
the abomination of desolation occurs (international community claims the
sovereignty over the temple mount) then the Great Tribulations starts, and those
who live in Judea will have to flee.
Judea
is that what we today know as the West Bank. Ehud Olmert claimed victory early
Wednesday, March 29, after his Kadima party won Israeli general elections on
Tuesday. During campaign he wowed to continue Sharon's work and withdraw from there behind the security wall, but,
most probably, 80.000 Jews who live there will not comply to his wishes.
Second thing to watch is the building of the security wall which is going to
separate Judea from the rest of Israel (image above). It was supposed to be totally done by
now, but it will be finished in 2007.
Rebuilding of the Temple on the Temple Mound in Jerusalem, which has started in
June 2005, is also to watch. That has to be done 3 and 1/2 before Armageddon.
Temple Institute has all furniture and utilities already ready, and temple is being built off-site as a pre-fabricate. When political arrangements shall allow it, it shall be assembled on site in the very short time, as the first Temple was. They are prepared today to start ministry next day Temple is finished, but to do that a High Priest of Israel must exist, and he is appointed by God himself.
Last
one was Phannias ben Samuel who was killed when Romans destroyed Jerusalem and
its Second Temple circa 70 CE, ending the Great Jewish Revolt that began in 66
CE (click on the image of the
Second Temple to access the article at Wikipedia). 
As all of his predecessors he was descendent of Aaron,
brother of Moses, who was the first High Priest of Israel. The Torah appoints
his descendants as Kohanim, and to conserve their purity prohibits them from
marrying women of certain specified categories, including those who were not
born of Jewish parents. As
most of the service in the Temple could be conducted only by Kohanim, this
presents a grave problem.
According to Ellen Gunderson Traylor (Radio Liberty show on 04-06-2006), recently, the "myth" that Kohen are actually descended from Aaron, was supported by genetic testing that was carried out world-wide. Since all direct male lineage shares a common Y chromosome, testing was done across sectors of the Jewish population to see if there was any commonality between their Y chromosomes, and was proven that certain distinctions among the "Kohen" Y chromosomes exists, implying that the Kohen do share common ancestry. Combining this find with other scientific methods, a candidate for new High Priest of Israel was found. By his current profession he has turned out to be Genetics Scientist.
National ID cards in USA are only 2 years away, and in other nations it will be
introduced soon if they are not already there. Their implementation started on May 11,
2005, and by May 11, 2008 every person in America shall have it. They are being
introduced to serve as, supposedly, protection against terrorism, an 911 product.
The Bible says in Revelation 13:15 thru 18 that the Antichrist will cause all,
small and great, rich and poor, free and bonded to receive a mark in their right
hand or in their forehead that no man might buy or sell, save that he has the
mark or the number of the name or the name of the beast. So, apparently, this
national ID will be given in several forms and is probably going to be
disguised, with a computer chip in it's core that will hold all information
relevant to one's life. The last verse says "Let him who has understanding
count the number of the beast for it is the number of the name of the man, and
it is 666.”
According to Bible, the Antichrist is to be revealed 3 and 1/2 years before
Armageddon. Mark of the beast (of the kingdom) can be implemented only after he
takes on the political management of the kingdom of the beast, and that is not
planned to occur before May 11, 2008.
If the Confirmation of the Covenant occurred on September 20, 2005, then
Antichrist shall rise to power 3 and 1/2 years after that, in March 2009, and
will be free to rule for next 3 and 1/2 years until Armageddon in September 2012
starts.
In
Daniel 11:42 to 44 is written that during the final 3 and 1/2 years of the reign
of the Antichrist, right before Armageddon, some nations from the east and from
the north shall trouble him and that he will go to war against them to destroy
them, meaning that he will not have control upon the entire world.
United States of America could become that nation, because the Bible foresaw
that the Lion would get his Eagle wings, at one point, un-plucked.
First American
President, George Washington sow this change of context in America, from
militaristic nation to nation under God in his vision
(for details click on his
image).
Somewhere
along the line, probably when the US becomes unable to defend Taiwan because of
its attack on Iran, China will jump in attacking Taiwan and defending Iran. Then
Gog Magog, or Russia, will come against Israel together with Iran (that is
called Persia in Ezekiel 38).
This war will not last very long. It will be nuclear, it will move rapidly.
There
is a gap in prophetic scripture in chapter 12 of the book of Daniel. There is
written that the reign of Antichrist will last to the 1290th day, and that
blessed is he who arrives to 1335th day. There is 45 day gap that can be
explained only as the duration of the war at the Armageddon. Israel is a small nation
and cannot fight long wars alone. Israel will be losing that war.
In
Zechariah 14:1 thru 12 battle of Armageddon is described and it says:
"This is the plague with which the Lord will smite all those that will be
coming at Jerusalem, their eyes will be consumed and their sockets, their
tongues will be consumed and their mouth, their flash will fall off the
bone".
It
is prophetic description, and accurate description of nuclear radiation, and
heat. It was
written 500 BC. It says that in an ultimate effort to defend itself Israel will use its nuclear weapons against invading force.
It is beleived that at that point the skies will divide and Jesus Christ will
save Israel.
From all this it could be understood that everything will be wrapped-up, just as Maya foresaw by their calendar, in December 2012. Perhaps Spanish conquistadors were sent to them to terminate their civilization and burn their books because of this knowledge they had.
