Revelation
13:1—And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy.
This religious system, leader of the kings of the earth, is allowed to make wars that will darken the sun. These are the nuclear wars that are being held back at this time.
Who Is She?
Revelation
13:1—
And
I stood upon the sand of the sea,
and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven
heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon
his heads the names of blasphemy.
Notice the words sea in Revelation 13:1 and many waters in Revelation 17:1.
Revelation
17:1-5—
1 And there came one
of the seven
malakim who had the seven bowls, and talked with me, saying to me:
Come, I will show you the sentence of the great whore that sits upon many
waters,
2 With whom the kings of the
earth have committed fornication; practiced idolatry: god
worship (the worship of elohim), and the inhabitants of the
earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the
Spirit into the midst of god worshipers (worshipers
of elohim); and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet colored beast, full
of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in
purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold, and precious stones,
and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and
filthiness of her fornication.
5 And upon her head was
a name written: Mystery Babylon the great, the mother
of the harlots and of the abominations of the earth.
Revelation
17:1-2, KJV—
The woman on the beast
And there came one of
the seven
angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me,
Come hither; I will show unto thee the judgment of the great whore that
sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the
earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have
been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
Revelation
17:1-2, Amplified
Bible—
One
of the seven angels who had
the seven bowls then came and spoke to me, saying, Come with me! I will
show you the doom (sentence, judgment) of the great harlot (idolatress)
who is seated on many waters.
2 [She] with whom the rulers of
the earth have joined in prostitution (idolatry) and with the wine of
whose immorality (idolatry) the inhabitants of the earth have become
intoxicated.
Remember
the waters
and read:
Revelation
17:15—
And he said to me: The
waters
which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples,
and multitudes, and nations,
and languages.
The
Catholic
religion is the major religion of the earth. Her tentacles reach into
every nation on earth. She is, by majority and power, the leader of the
leaders of the earth. Her crusades have always shown her real desires.
She has seven heads.
Revelation
13:1—
And I stood upon the
sand of the
sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven
heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon
his heads the names of blasphemy.
Seven
heads of
the beast. Notice what these seven heads represent.
Revelation
17:9—
And here is the mind
which has
wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on
which the woman sits.
The
city of
Rome is situated on seven hills (mountains), and each of these seven
hills are named after gods. Quoting from A New Latin
Dictionary, by Lewis and Short, we find the following
information about the names of the seven hills of Rome and the gods
they are named after:
Aventine:
Diana had
an altar on this hill (page 212);
Caelian:
Mountain
of The Gods, often called Lateran—the god of harvest (pages
262-263, 1039);
Capitoline:
Temple of
Jupiter (pages 286-287);
Esquiline:
Abode of
the dead, Execution site, Burial ground, Mount of Medea, Place
of Witchcraft and Sorcery (pages 660, 1967);
Palatine:
The seat
of Jupiter (page 1291);
Quirinal:
Romulus
and Janus (page 1515);
Viminal:
Jupiter
(page 1991).
Some have said that the seven heads referred only to pagan Rome and not to Rome today. The change or spreading to new locations would not change this religious system. It's still pagan. It still rebels against Yahweh's Laws and it's fulfilling the Prophecy of reigning over the kings of the earth as the news articles show for this time period.
Notice the next identifying
clue. The woman is:
Revelation
17:18—
And the woman whom you
saw, is
that great city which reigns over the kings of the
earth.
With this information in mind, again read the following news articles which show the leadership of the Catholic Church among the Quartet in bringing about the fulfillment of the last 3½ years of divided actions, some yet to be fulfilled mainly nuclear.
Holy See Insists That It Has
Right To Speak
Says It Participates in
International Community as Guardian of Man
Rome, Nov.
28, 2007. The human
being has dignity and a transcendent dimension, and this is why an
independent moral authority, such as the Holy See, has a role to play
in international organizations, says an official at the Vatican
Secretariat of State.
Monsignor
Pietro Parolin,
undersecre-tary for relations with states, affirmed this in a
conference delivered Nov.
21 to a group of ambassadors
and members of diplomatic corps gathered in the Argentinian
Embassy to the Holy See. The gathering marked the
150th
anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Holy
See and that nation.
"The Catholic Church is the only
religious institution that can enter into diplomatic
relations and that interests itself in international rights,
acting through the Holy See, an international sovereign
subject of singular characteristics," Monsignor Parolin said.
The Holy
See is the Holy Father
himself inasmuch as he is an independent,
universal, spiritual authority,
together with the organizations of the Roman Curia that collaborate
with this mission," he defined.
The
Holy See thus requires a
particular status, such as that given by the definition of "subject
`sui juris'," meaning the Holy See defines for itself its
juridical organization and does not receive it from outside,
and as such, can enter into relationship with other states.
The
Holy See currently
has diplomatic relations with 176 states. It has a
presence at the United Nations as an observer state,
memberships in seven organizations or agencies within the U.N. system,
and is an observer in another eight. The Holy See also has observer
status in five regional organizations.
If
the Holy See wishes to place
itself as "an independent interlocutor of the states and to express an authorized
judgment about the problems that affect lives, it is because
"it thinks that it represents a dimension of man that, although
decisive in the life of the societies, is not fully under the
jurisdiction of the states, nor does it end in them," he said.
"If
man did not transcend the
material dimension, there would not be sufficient reason for the
respect of his dignity to be over and above national interests,"
observed Monsignor Parolin. "This pre-existence and independence of the
dignity of the individual, and more concretely, his transcendent
dimension, is the ultimate justification for the existence of a sovereign
moral authority independent of the states."
"As
a consequence, the Holy See,
in its international activity without interfering in the realms and
responsibilities proper to the states, proposes itself as guardian
of the human person and religious liberty," Monsignor Parolin
continued.
The
Vatican official said that
working in the Secretariat of State, especially in the section for
relations with states, implies having the advantage of a unique
watchtower from which to observe and know the international reality,
given that one is privy to a constant overall vision formed in part by
an almost daily contact with the diplomats accredited to the
Holy See.
The
Holy See, he said, "attempts
to emphasize these concepts, making use of the very tools provided by
the international community, such as the manifesto of the United
Nations, which solemnly declares that the organization was established
in order to save future generations from the scourge of
war, in order to reaffirm the faith...

Iran's Secret Weapon:
The Pope
The diplomatic chess
game around
Iran's nuclear program includes an unlikely bishop. According to
several well-placed Rome sources, Iranian officials are quietly laying
the groundwork necessary to turn to Pope Benedict XVI and top Vatican
diplomats for mediation if the showdown with the United
States should escalate toward a military intervention.
...Iran, which has had diplomatic relations with the Holy See for 53
years, may be trying to line up Benedict as an ace in the
hole for staving off potential attack in the coming months.
"The Vatican seems to be part of their strategy," a senior Western
diplomat in Rome said of the Iranian leadership. "They'll have an idea
of when the 11th hour is coming. And they know an intervention of the
Vatican is the most open and amenable route to Western public
opinion. It could buy them time."
If
the situation heats up in the
coming months, the question of exactly what role the Vatican would play
could become pivotal. ...Among the potential moves: a forceful series
of public appeals by the Pope, a Vatican emissary sent to
Washington and Tehran, or a visit to the Vatican by Iranian President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
The
current No. 2 official at
the embassy, Vice-Ambassador Ahmad Fahima, said that despite
some concern last year about the Pope's provocative speech about Islam
in Regensburg, Germany, "relations between Iran and the Holy
See are very good." Last April's release of 15 British sailors held by
Iran—a decision that Ahmadinejad called "an Easter gift"—
came just a day after the Pope had sent a private letter asking their
liberation.
Asked
about the standoff with
the West over his country's nuclear program, Fahima repeated Iran's
insistence that it is seeking atomic power only for civilian purposes.
Moreover, he said he doubts that the United States can resolve key
regional issues in the Middle East, including Iraq and Lebanon, without
the help of Iran. "We don't expect the superpower will attack," Fahima
concluded. "But if they do, I am sure the Holy See would not
be favorable to such a choice."
...And
over recent months, the
conversations have centered on the looming showdown over Iran's nuclear
program. Says one key Catholic Church player involved in these
discussions: "The Pope will speak explicitly only when the
conditions call for it."
Indeed,
while home to a
relatively small Christian minority, Iran is seen at the Vatican as a
key player in the broader context of inter-faith relations.

Holy See-Israel accords are
elements of international law
Bishops and Catholic
experts
explain and clarify the position of the Holy See in talks with Israel.
The Church is not seeking "privileges" but only recognition of those
rights that Israel itself has promised several times over to observe.
Jerusalem (AsiaNews)—The Catholic
perspective is understanding more and more that Israel's difficulties
to realize and to fulfill—through enactment of laws—the 1993
Fundamental Agreement hinge on the Israeli government's conception of
this agreement and its ensuing unwillingness to recognize it as an
international treaty.
A
source of the Israeli Catholic
Church and expert in international law, told AsiaNews: "Any student of
international law, even first-year students, will immediately see that
the Fundamental Agreement is an international treaty and thus a
juridical and totally binding agreement. After all, it was negotiated,
signed and ratified in this form before the whole world. Whether it
should be transferred to Israeli law in all its details is up to the
State, but the Israeli government cannot describe the treaty as
"non-binding" before courts and the Supreme Court just because it has
not been translated into law."
As
for defending the Status Quo
for the Catholic Church, several ecclesial personalities in Israel have
clarified that the Church is not asking for privileges but simply for
the recognition of rights granted by the UN itself when the
state of Israel was born (1948) with Resolution 181 and which
Israel has promised other nations and churches several times over that
it would observe. "The State of Israel should adapt its laws to the
stipulations of international law. Besides, over the years, Catholic
representatives have often consulted the most prominent Israeli law
experts and all of them confirmed that there is no reason to think that
an Accord as desired by the Church risks being delegitimized by
Israel's domestic judicial powers."
As
for the much anticipated
Economic Accord, the same expert source said: "It must be stressed that
this should be—as stipulated by the Fundamental Agreement—a
comprehensive agreement that resolves all questions of an `economic'
nature or regarding property, what lawyers would call a `settlement of
all claims,' precisely to ensure the Church-State ties in Israel may be
serene, based on common regulations and will no longer be, as alas they
have been so far, a theater for continued tensions and clashes because
of the absence of regulations across the board.
Asked
about these issues, Fr
David Maria Jaeger, a Franciscan jurist... specified that they should
help to "realize the prophetic vision of the Servant of God,
John Paul II...

Vatican, Israel set for new

on diplomatic accord
Jerusalem,
Dec. 11, 2007—Israeli
and Vatican negotiators will meet on December 12...
Vatican officials have
shown
mounting impatience at the absence of an accord settling the economic
and legal rights of Church institutions in Israel. That pact was
promised as part of the "fundamental accord" that was signed in 1993,
provided for Vatican recognition of Israel and the establishment of
diplomatic relations. But negotiations stalled in 1994,
and did not resume until American diplomatic pressure brought Israel's
representatives back to the bargaining table in 2004.

New plenary meeting (and
little hope) in Holy See-Israel negotiations
The Bilateral
Commission meets
tomorrow, followed the next day by a plenary session of both
delegations. The Vatican has been waiting 14 years to see the
Fundamental Accord implemented. Impatience is growing over
unfilled promises.
Tel Aviv (AsiaNews)—Anxiety,
concern, low expectations and a bit of hope are the emotions that
prevail on the eve of another meeting between the delegations of the
Holy See and the Israeli government which should lead to the
implementation of the Fundamental Accord.
Signed
in 1993 the
latter must be complemented by juridical and economic agreements to
come into effect.
Israeli Ambassador to the Holy
See Obed Ben Hur said a few weeks ago that the Accord should be
finalized by 13 December. But lately the Vatican side has
shown increasing impatience.
An internationally-binding
Juridical Agreement was signed in 1997 but was never implemented in
Israel. An Economic Agreement in accordance with the Fundamental
Accord of 1993 has still not been signed.

The "survival of the world" is
at stake if Muslims and Christians do not make peace with each other,
leaders of the Muslim world will warn the Pope and other Christian
leaders today.
In an unprecedented open letter
signed by 138 leading scholars from every sect of Islam, the Muslims
plead with Christian leaders "to come together with us on the common
essential of our two religions..."
The letter, addressed to Pope
Benedict XVI, to the Orthodox Church's Patriarch of Constantinople,

Archbishop of Canterbury Dr. Rowan Williams and the leaders of all
other Protestant churches worldwide...
...The letter continues: "With
the terrible weaponry of the modern world; with Muslims and Christians
intertwined everywhere as never before, no side can unilaterally win a

Pope Meets Israeli President,
Expresses Hope For Mideast Peace
Catholic
News Service
Castel Gandolfo, Italy
- Pope Benedict XVI met with Israeli President Shimon Peres
and expressed hope that new diplomatic moves can bring peace
in the Middle East.
Following
his 35-minute private
audience with the pope, Peres held separate talks with Cardinal
Tarcisio Bertone, Vatican secretary of state, and Archbishop Dominique
Mamberti, the Vatican's top foreign affairs official, to discuss
the Middle East and church-state relations in Israel. The
encounters came as Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert were preparing to renew negotiations. Meanwhile,
diplomats were setting the stage for a U.S.-sponsored international
conference on the Middle East in November. The
Vatican statement said the prospect of an international conference
raised new hopes and created a "particularly favorable context for
progress. "All sides should make every effort to respond to
the expectations of the populations, which have been exhausted by a
crisis that has lasted 60 years and that continues to spread grief and
destruction," the statement said. An eventual
Israeli-Palestinian agreement should respect U.N. resolutions and
previously concluded agreements, the Vatican said.
On the
subject of church-state
relations, the Vatican statements expressed the hope for the "rapid
conclusion" of current negations on the financial
and legal status of church institutions in Israel.
Peres, who
met the pope at the papal summer villa outside
Rome, gave the pontiff an unusual gift: "Virtual Prayer for
Reconciliation and Peace"…
Later the
same morning, the pope
met with the Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister, Prince

The Vatican Agenda
By Joel Bainerman
Instead of taking what they
believe seriously, we tend to snicker amongst ourselves when we see
those pictures of obscure rituals and ceremonies and think the whole
religion is near pagan-like with the "eating of Holy Wafers" and
"sprinkling of Baptism water" on people's heads. That may be true, but
that doesn't matter. What matters is what they believe and what
they plan to do about making their beliefs become a
reality...
...This essay will provide the
background to that deal, as well as what the Vatican's
intentions are regarding Israel and The Old City of
Jerusalem. It will reveal which Israeli politicians made
certain commitments to The Vatican regarding the issue of sovereignty
in the Old City of Jerusalem. These negotiations and meetings
were all carried out in secret.
What Does The Vatican
Want?
It can't be that the Vatican is
only interested in "access to their Holy Sites" in Jerusalem. They
already have that as well as legal jurisdiction under Israeli law for
their institutions and assets in Jerusalem. Also, when these "Holy
Sites" were under the jurisdiction of the Jordanians from 1948-1967, no
Pope demanded the "internationalization of Jerusalem."
It is something else, which the
Vatican wants. The Roman Catholic Church needs to have certain versions
of events be played out for them to stand in front of mankind and
proclaim: our Messiah has returned. Of course, to the Jews, this
Messiah will be as false as the first one was supposed to be. Doesn't
matter. This is the goal of the Vatican and this is what all Israelis
need to worry about.
Make no mistake about it. The
Old City of Jerusalem, as well as most of the eastern half of the city,
is what The Vatican is after.
Why?
Because controlling
the entire
Old City of Jerusalem (and not just Church properties) and being able
to build whatever they want on Mount Zion is critical for the program
they have planned to put into play in our capital city. The deal that
it has signed with Israel via Yossi Beilin and Shimon Peres (in secret
and without the approval of the Knesset) gives The Church not
only extraterritorial status to their properties (which is
what the bi-lateral agreement the Israeli government signed with the
Vatican on December 30th, 1993, put in law) but of control
over the entire city as
"custodians" under UN presence. In this way the Jews will
give up control over the Old City.
September, 1993
On the 10th of September, just
three days before the signing of the Oslo Accord in Washington, the
Italian newspaper La Stampa reported that then Foreign Minister Shimon
Peres concluded a secret deal with the Vatican to hand over sovereignty
of Jerusalem's Old City to the Vatican. The agreement and it was
included in the secret clauses of the Declaration of Principles signed
on September 13th, 1993 in Washington, DC.
In
the same week that Israeli
Foreign Minister and chief Oslo architect Shimon Peres signed the
Declaration of Principles with Yasser Arafat in Washington, the
Israel-Vatican commission held a special meeting in Israel. Under the
Vatican agreement the Israelis would give over control of the Old City
to the Vatican before the year 2000. The plan also calls for Jerusalem
to become the second Vatican of the world with all
three major religions represented but under the authority of the
Vatican. Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel but the Old City
will be administered by the Vatican.
Arafat
agreed to the plan just
before the famous "handshake" in 1993, but when he realized that the
Vatican was also going to let Israel share in the temple mount,
he rejected it.
March 1995
A cable from the
Israeli Embassy
in Rome to The Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem is leaked to radio station
Arutz Sheva, confirming the handover of Jerusalem to the Vatican. Two
days later, the cable made front page of Haaretz. In the widely
distributed minutes of a meeting with President Clinton in 1997, Peres
ended the cable with the words, "as I had previously promised the Holy
See."
October 2000
In a speech to the
United
Nations on October 30th, Archbishop Renato Martino declared: "The
'unique character' of Jerusalem as a city sacred to three great
religions makes it essential that religious leaders, not politicians,
control the holy sites." In his meeting on October 26th with Lebanese
Ambassador to the Vatican, Fouad Aoun, Pope John Paul II said that the
city of Jerusalem should be given "specially guaranteed international
status."

Sign
Catholic Deal
The Palestinian Authority has
signed an agreement with the Vatican giving it an official footing in
Palestinian areas, and calling for an "equitable solution" to the
contentious issue of Jerusalem.
The accord-signed as Palestinian
leader Yasser Arafat held talks with Pope John Paul II in Rome-warned
Israel that unilateral decisions on Jerusalem were "morally and legally
unacceptable."
The deal also calls for an
international statute for disputed Jerusalem in order to safeguard "the
proper identity and sacred character of the city and its universally
significant religious and cultural heritage."
Previously, the Vatican has
called Israel's annexation of East Jerusalem illegal and said it does
not recognize Israeli sovereignty there.
The
final status of the city is
due to be decided in currently-stalled talks between

used as a partisan instrument, John Paul II himself reaffirmed (at a June
2003 audience
with Oded
Ben-Hur
during
his presentation of credentials as new Israeli ambassador to
the Holy See)
that while it is undeniable that "people have a
right to live in safety" this right "carries with it an inherent duty:
respect for the rights of others." Thus, after clearly reiterating
"terrorist acts must always be condemned as crimes against humanity"
and that each state has the "inalienable right to defend herself
against terrorism," the pope reminded those in attendance "this right
must always be exercised with respect to the moral and legal boundaries
of the means" used to achieve the former. He underscored that it is
essential that Israelis and Palestinians are able to live in "two
independent and sovereign states."

Sharon: Israel must withdraw from areas it won't control.
By The Associated
Press Haaretz 31
March 2004
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said
Wednesday evening that Israel must unilaterally pull out of areas that
it will clearly not control in the framework of a final peace
accord, warning that a continued stalemate in the
Israel-Palestinian conflict would lead to international initiatives
that are unfavorable to Israel.
Defending his unilateral
disengagement plan in a speech in Tel Aviv, Sharon said that there is
no Palestinian partner for peace negotiations, and so Israel had to
take its own action.
He warned that if violence
continues, international donors have said they could not maintain their
contributions to the Palestinians, which he said support 1.8 million
people.
Stopping foreign aid to the
Palestinians would be a "humanitarian disaster, he said and Israel
would be blamed.
Sharon said, "The world will not
allow the stalemate to continue. The stalemate will inevitably bring a
flood of international initiatives," and Israeli's vital interests
would not be taken into account.
"Israel must take a step that
will prevent political collapse," Sharon said. "It must reduce the
friction between Israelis and Palestinians by leaving the Gaza Strip.

PM Qureia: Disengagement
plan could revive peace process-with no Israeli control of borders
By News Agencies
Ha'aretz 31
March 2004
The significance of Qureia's
demand that "as part of Sharon's plan, Israel needs to... give up
control of international border crossings, ports
and airports there" may be lost...
The Palestinian prime minister
on Wednesday voiced hope for the first time that an Israeli pullout
from the Gaza Strip could revive peace moves
but
said it must be accompanied by withdrawal from the West Bank.
"The Gaza
pullout proposal could
be a change [to revive peace moves] and we all
should work together to seize this chance in a wise and courageous
manner," Prime minister Ahmed Qureia told lawmakers in the West Bank
city of Ramallah in his most positive comments to
date on the Israeli plan.
"For
this pullout to be
meaningful, it should open the way for resuming the
peace process and completing it by fully pulling out from
the West Bank as well," he said on the eve of a visit by senior U.S.
envoys to the region.
Qureia
said any West
Bank pullout should not replace the U.S.-backed road map, "but rather
be a step on the way to implementing it."

Many changes have taken place in
Israel since your last conference a year ago. Last year when we met
here, we were in the final stages of approving the Roadmap in the
Government.
I will not detail further
achievements, which are very important, but are currently under
discussion with the White House; and there are such achievements and
they are very important. I do not detail these things now since we are
currently negotiating with the Americans. There have been many meetings
since I announced to the Americans, at a meeting in Rome last
November, that I thought we should pursue a different plan.
At that time, I presented them with the principles of the Disengagement
Plan.

U.S. Envoys On Their Way
To Mideast To Discuss Gaza Withdrawal
The three U.S. envoys holding
talks with Israel over the disengagement plan are heading for the
Middle East for a visit that will include Egypt, Jordan and Israel,
HA'ARETZ reported. On their way to the region, the envoys will stop in
Brussels today to update senior European officials on the recent
Washington discussions regarding the pullout plan.
A meeting between Prime Minister
Ariel Sharon and the three U.S. representatives, National Security
Council advisers Steve Hadley and Elliott Abrams and Assistant
Secretary of State William Burns, is likely to take place in Jerusalem
on Thursday. The three will travel to Cairo to meet with Egyptian
President Hosni Mubarak, followed by a visit to Amman to meet with
Jordan's King Abdullah. A senior source in Washington involved in the
disengagement plan talks expressed "cautious optimism" over the results
of contracts between Israel and the United States. "The Americans have
internalized the evaluation that the plan could have historic
implications, and are interested in advancing it, while ensuring
widespread international support," the source said.

Sharon Speaks With British PM Blair
[about
disengagement]
Communicated by the Prime
Minister's Media Adviser
Wednesday 07 April,
2004
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon this
afternoon (Wednesday) 7-4-2004, spoke with UK Prime Minister Tony
Blair, who had phoned in order to express his support for the
disengagement plan and the step that Israel is taking.
Prime Minister Sharon said that
he decided to proceed with the disengagement plan because there is no
partner on the Palestinian side who is ready to implement the roadmap.
The two leaders agreed to
continue their dialogue after they visit Washington.

Background:
Retreat Puts State A Photo Op Away Under Roadmap?
Aaron
Lerner
Date: 7 April 2004
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon...
It is noteworthy that the
Roadmap not only declines to provide for measurable standards of
Palestinian security performance in either phase one or phase two, it
gives the Quartet the exclusive right to determine if Palestinian
activity is sufficient to warrant the formation of a
sovereign state. Even if it is grossly obvious that the Palestinians
have failed to perform by any standard, the Road Map allows
the Quartet to give the green light to a sovereign state since the
Quartet is to judge the situation "taking into account
performance of both parties." Thus the Quartet can even concede that
the Palestinians haven't done much but then argue that "both parties
have failed equally in their performance" and thus it is possible to
progress to a sovereign state.
That's the Quartet-not the U.S.
The Road Map gives no special standing to the U.S. within the Quartet,
so even if the U.S. is not satisfied with Palestinian performance this
is no guarantee that the Road Map won't march on to a Palestinian
state.
In sharp contrast to "final and
comprehensive permanent status agreement that ends the
Israel-Palestinian state formed in phase two is "through a
process of Israel-Palestinian engagement." The term "engagement" does
not require negotiations. In fact, Sharon's retreat and the Palestinian
take-over of control of evacuated areas could readily be construed as
"a process of Israeli-Palestinian engagement."
To summarize: a retreat from the
Gaza Strip that relies on the terms of reference of the Road Map
creates conditions that allow the Quartet to decide
to sanction the formation of a sovereign Palestinian state within
evacuated areas-regardless of the actual performance of the
Palestinians. Once this happens the key requirement of the Israeli
security establishment-control of entry and exit via land air and sea
from the Gaza Strip-will be beyond Israel's reach as Israel's blockade
of a sovereign Gaza is challenged by various nations.
The U.S. State Department April
30 released the text of the "roadmap" to a permanent solution to the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The roadmap specifies the steps for the
two parties to take to reach a settlement, and a timeline for doing so,
under the auspices of the Quartet-the United
States, the European Union, the United
Nations, and Russia.
directory.kol-israel.com
Following is the text of
the roadmap:
Office of the Spokesman
Washington, DC
April 30, 2003
Implementation, as previously
agreed, of U.S. rebuilding, training and resumed security cooperation
plan in collaboration with outside oversight board (U.S.-Egypt-Jordan) Quartet
support for efforts to achieve a lasting, comprehensive
cease-fire.
Phase II: Transition—June
2003-December 2003. In the second phase, efforts are focused on the
option of creating an independent Palestinian state with provisional
borders and attributes of sovereignty, based on the new constitution,
as a way station to a permanent status settlement. As has been noted,
this goal can be achieved when the Palestinian people have a leadership
acting decisively against terror, willing and able to build a
practicing democracy based on tolerance and liberty. With
such a leadership, reformed civil institutions and security structures,
the Palestinians will have the active support of the Quartet and the
broader international community in establishing an independent, viable
state.

Now
notice
carefully the date this order is given—March 31, 2004. This is the date
that Yahweh inspired Daniyl to give to Yahweh's People, starting from
this time to 1290 days.
Daniyl
12:11,
KJV—
And
from the time that
the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the
abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be
a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
From Strong's Expanded Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible we see the meaning of the Hebrew words translated taken away, which is word #5493, can mean behead, bring or call back.
The word sacrifice was added. The Hebrew word translated daily is word #8548 in Strong's Expanded Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible and means:
Remember
Daniyl is not speaking of sacrifices but the 7-year peace plan that
shows the end of these things. Now notice what the other Hebrew
authoritative books say about the translation of this verse.
Daniyl
12:11-12—
11
And from the time that
the daily sacrifice will be taken away, and the
lord of heaven set up, there will be one thousand
two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he
who waits, and comes to the one thousand three
hundred and thirty five days.
The words daily sacrifice that are written in Daniyl 12:11 are translated from the Hebrew word tamid. This word is listed on page 1477 of A Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament by Julius Furst, which shows this word means extension or continuance of time.
The words will be taken away are translated from the Hebrew word husar. This word is listed on page 574 of the Analytical Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon by Benjamin Davidson, which shows this word means to draw near.
The word lord, written abomination in most translations, is translated from the Hebrew word shaqutz. This word is listed on A Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament by Julius Furst, page 1483, and pages 1640-1641, 1646, and 1702-1704 of The Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament by Koehler and Baumgartner, which show this word means to contaminate (infect with deadly microorganisms), the abhorrent customs of the Canaanites, by which is meant in particular sexual perversity (and in special cases sodomy), prostitution, adultery, and moral transgressions.
The word heaven, written desolation in most translations, is translated from the Hebrew word shamam. This word is listed on page 1564 of Volume 4 of The Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament by Koehler and Baumgartner, which shows this word means to be cut off from life (death).
The word waits that is written in Daniyl 12:12 is translated from the Hebrew word hamachakah. This word is listed on page 442 of A Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament by Julius Furst, which shows this word means to hold on firmly, to cling to, to trust, to hope.
A Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament by Julius Furst, page 55, shows that in the original Hebrew of the Holy Scriptures a number can be translated as a cardinal number, such as one, two, three, etc. or it can be translated as an ordinal number such as first, second, third, etc. This means that the cardinal number one thousand three hundred and thirty five is still correctly translated when it is written as the ordinal number one thousand three hundred and thirty fifth.
Correctly translated these
verses read as follows:
Daniyl
12:11-12—
11 And from the time that
a continuation will draw near, and the lord of heaven, the
abomination of desolation, that is the cause of the deadly
diseases and their effects by the many sexual perversions is set up,
there will be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he who holds fast,
and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-fifth day.
Remember, the peace plan was signed into action September 13, 1993 to begin October 13, 1993. It was prophesied to be shut down in the midst of the 7 years. It was shut down April 13, 1997, exactly 3½ years after it started. It was prophesied to stay shut down for 7 years then be started again. It was started again by former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and President George W. Bush on April 13, 2004. This is the exact date given in Prophecy, April 13, 2004.
Notice the next article and the date with one of the Quartet members, the second power shown in Revelation Chapter 13, the USA. Notice also, on this date, April 13, 2004, all the Quartet was included.

White House Transcript Of Bush-Sharon Press
Conference Regarding Sharon's Gaza "Disengagement" Plan (14 April 2004)
Remarks by US President
George W
Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon in Press Available, The
Cross Hall, White House 1:05 P.M. EDT
THE
PRESIDENT: I'm
pleased to welcome Prime Minister Sharon back to the White House.
For more than 50 years, Israel has been a vital ally and a true friend
of America. I've been proud to call the Prime Minister my friend. I
really appreciate our discussions today. The policy of the United
States is to help bring peace to the Middle East
and to hope—bring hope to the people of that region.
On
June 24, 2002, I
laid out a vision to make this goal a reality. We
then drafted the road map as the route to get us there. The
heart of this vision is the responsibility of all parties — of Israel,
of the Palestinian people, of the Arab states — to fight terror, to
embrace democracy and reform and to take the necessary
steps for peace.
Today,
the Prime Minister told
me of his decision to take such a step. Israel plans to remove certain
military installations and all settlements from Gaza, and certain
military
installations and settlements from the West Bank. These are historic
and courageous actions. If all parties chose to embrace this
moment they can open the door to progress and put an end to
one of the world's longest running conflicts.
Success
will require the active
efforts of many nations. Two days ago, I held important discussions
with President Mubarak of Egypt. And I will soon meet with King
Abdullah of Jordan. We're consulting closely with other key leaders in
the region, in Europe, and with our Quartet partners
— the EU,
Russia, and the United
Nations. These steps can open the door to progress toward a peaceful,
democratic, viable Palestinian state.
Working together, we can help build democratic Palestinian
instructions, as well as strong capabilities dedicated to fighting
terror so that the Palestinian people can meet their obligations under
the road map on the path to peace.
This
opportunity
holds great promise for the Palestinian people to build a modern
economy that will lift millions out of poverty, create the institutions
and habits of liberty, and renounce the terror and violence that impede
their aspirations and take a terrible toll on innocent life.

You
must
understand this next statement. Daniyl asked:
Daniyl 12:6—
And one said
to the Man clothed in linen, who on that future day is teaching: How
long will it be to the end of these wonders?
He
was told:
Daniyl 12:7—
Then I heard the Man
clothed in
linen, who on that future day is teaching, when he held up his right
hand and his left hand toward heaven, and vowed by Him Who lives
forever, that: It will be for a time,
times, and a half, when Yahweh
will have accomplished pouring out His Power through His Holy People,
all these will be finished.
But
Daniyl did
not understand.
Daniyl 12:8—
So I heard, but I did
not
understand. Then I said; O my ruler, what will be the
end of these things?
The
reason
Daniyl did not understand is because he knew that the Holy People would
be proven first and they would guide others that Yahweh is calling
through the worst part of the Great Tribulation. We see this in:
Daniyl 11:33—
And they who
understand among the
people will instruct many; though for many days some will be tested,
and will fall by the sword and by flame, by captivity and plundering.
Daniyl knew there was more to come to pass after the proving time of the time, times and divided time. Proceed for full details.
So Yahweh, for us today, gave
this answer.
Daniyl 12:10—
Many will be purified,
and made
white, and tried; tested; but
the wicked will do wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand,
but the wise will understand.
That
was
Yahweh's main purpose—testing His People. The end of the test of
proving Yahweh's People for certain offices in Yahweh's Kingdom, was
the last time, last 3½ years of the 7-year plan, that ended October 13,
2007, exactly 14 years from October 13, 1993. Daniyl knew there were
more people to be tested after the last time, plus nuclear wars. So
Yahweh showed Daniyl another clue to go by and when the last time would
take place.
Daniyl
12:11—
And from the time that
a continuation will draw near, and the lord of heaven, the
abomination of desolation, that is the cause of the deadly
diseases and their effects by the many sexual perversions is set up,
there will be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Three and one-half years is 1277 days. The last 3½ years ended October 13, 2007. Daniyl said from the time the order is given to the end of the 3½-year period will be 1290 days.
If we subtract 1277 (3½ years) from 1290, when the order is supposed to be given for the continuance of the peace plan, we get 13 days. 1290-1277=13
Was the order given on that day? If you count back 13 days from the start of the last 3½ years, which was April 13, 2004 you come to the exact time the order is given—March 31, 2004.

Sharon: Israel must withdraw from areas it won't control.

Wednesday evening that Israel must unilaterally pull out of areas that
it will clearly not control in the framework of a final peace
accord,
warning that a continued stalemate in the
Israel-Palestinian conflict would lead to international initiatives
that are unfavorable to Israel.
haaretz.com
Notice what he said: "in the framework of the final peace accord," referring to the last part of actions of the last time, 3½ years, of the 7-year peace plan.
Nuclear Wars Held Back
The
nuclear
wars, that were held back by Yahweh until His People could be proven
true, come with the actions of the 7-year peace agreement. Notice the
time of trouble.
Daniyl
12:1—
And at that time will
Micahyah
stand up, the great ruler who stands for the children of your people; and
there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a
nation to that same time. And at that time your people will
be delivered, everyone who will be found written in The Book of
Life.
Daniyl
12:7—
…time, times and a
half (divided
time)…
The
division
was in the actions themselves. The greatest time of trouble that will
darken the sun is shown in:
Mattithyah
24:21-22, 29—
21 For then will be Great
Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning
of the world to this time—no, nor ever will be.
22 And unless those days were
shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect's sake,
those days will be shortened.
29 Immediately, but
after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun
be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the
stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be
shaken.
Revelation
6:7-8, 12—
7 And when He had
opened the
fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say: Come
and see.
8 And I looked, and behold, a
pale horse. And the name of him who sat upon it was death; and sheol; the
grave, followed with him. And power was given to them over a
fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with
pestilence—the same under the authority of the beast of the earth.
12 And I looked when He had
opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and
the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the
moon became as blood.
Not
all wars
are held back but the nuclear wars that will darken the sun are held
back.
Revelation
7:1-3—
1 And after these
things I saw
four messengers standing on the four corners of the earth, holding
the four winds of the earth, so that the wind should not blow
on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2 And I saw another Malak
ascending from the east, having the Seal of the living Father; and he
cried with a loud voice to the four messengers, to whom it was given to
hurt the earth and the sea,
3 Saying: Hurt not the
earth, neither the sea, nor the
trees, until we have sealed the servants
of our Father in their foreheads.
The
winds of
wars that are shown to be held back in this chapter are the wars shown
in Revelation 6:7-8, 12;
they include nuclear wars
that are shown in the next verses.
Revelation
9:14-18—
14 Saying to the Last
Malak which
had the trumpet: Loose the four messengers who are bound for the great
River Euphrates!
15 And the four messengers were
loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a moon; month,
and a year, in order to slay the third part of men.
16 And the number of the army of
the horsemen was two hundred thousand thousand;
for I heard the number of them.
17 And in my vision, I saw the
horses and those who sat upon them like this: They had
breastplates of fire; red, and
of jacinth; blue, and brimstone; yellow,
and the heads of the horses were as
the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire, and smoke, and
brimstone.
18 By these three were the third
part of men killed: by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the
brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
These colors show the three colors of the nuclear explosion, the mushroom cloud. By using these colors, we see a picture of a nuclear bomb being exploded. The Prophet Yahchanan was referring to the earth being hurt by nuclear explosions.
Fire
(red)
Jacinth
(blue)
Brimstone
(yellow)
When the three colors are added together, we see the colors of a nuclear explosion.
As you can see in Revelation 9:14, the four messengers (Quartet) are loosed and are now making plans to finish the job they were assigned to do.
The Pope tried before to bring about all the ingredients of the last accord but was unable to accomplish it. Yahweh held them back, knowing they will cause nuclear wars.
The U.S. tried to start this nuclear war too soon but was held back.

Air Force refused to fly
weapons to Middle East theater
Wayne
Madsen
WMR has learned from U.S. and
foreign intelligence sources that the B-52 transporting six
stealth AGM-129 Advanced Cruise Missiles, each armed with a W-80-1
nuclear warhead, on August 30, were
destined for the Middle East via Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.
However,
elements of the Air
Force supported by U.S. intelligence agency personnel, successfully
revealed the ultimate destination of the nuclear weapons
and the mission was aborted due to internal
opposition
within the Air Force and U.S. Intelligence
Community.
Yesterday,
the /Washington Post/
attempted to explain away the fact that America's nuclear
command and control system broke down in an unprecedented
manner by reporting that it was the result of "security failures at
multiple levels." It is now apparent that the command and control
breakdown, reported as a BENT SPEAR incident to the Secretary of
Defense and White House, was not the result of a command and control
chain-of-command "failures" but the result of a revolt
and push back by various echelons within the Air Force and intelligence
agencies against a planned U.S. attack on Iran
using nuclear and conventional weapons.
The
/Washington Post/ story on
BENT SPEAR may have actually been an effort in damage control by the
Bush administration. WMR has been informed by a knowledgeable source
that one of the six nuclear-armed cruise missiles
was, and may still be, unaccounted for. In that case, the nuclear
reporting incident would have gone far beyond BENT SPEAR to a National
Command Authority alert known as EMPTY QUIVER, with the special
classification of PINNACLE.
Just
as this report was being
prepared, /Newsweek/ reported that Vice President Dick Cheney's
recently-departed Middle East adviser, David Wurmser, told a small
group of advisers some months ago that Cheney had considered asking
Israel to launch a missile attack on Iran directly were altered to an
Israeli attack on a supposed Syrian-Iranian-North Korean nuclear
installation in northern Syria.
WMR
has learned that a U.S.
attack on Iran using nuclear and conventional weapons was
scheduled to coincide with Israel's September 6 air attack on
a reputed Syrian
nuclear facility
in Sayr az-Zwar,
near the village of Tal Abyad, in northern Syria, near the Turkish
border on the Euphrates River. Israel's attack, code named OPERATION
ORCHARD, was to provide a reason for the U.S. to strike Iran. The
neo-conservative propaganda onslaught was to cite the cooperation of
George Bush's three remaining "Axis of Evil" states -- Syria, Iran, and
North Korea -- to justify a sustained Israeli attack on Syria and a
massive U.S. military attack on Iran.
WMR has learned from military
sources on both sides of the Atlantic that there was a definite
connection between Israel's OPERATION ORCHARD and BENT SPEAR involving
the B-52 that flew the six nuclear-armed cruise missiles
from Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota to Barksdale. There is also a
connection between these two events as the Pentagon's highly-classified
PROJECT CHECKMATE, a compartmented U.S. Air Force program that has been
working on an attack plan for Iran since June 2007,
around the same time that Cheney was working on the joint Israeli-U.S.
attack scenario on Iran.
CHECKMATE
and OPERATION ORCHARD
would have provided the cover for a pre-emptive U.S. and Israeli attack
on Iran had it not been for BENT SPEAR involving the B-52. In on the
plan to launch a pre-emptive on Iran involving nuclear weapons
were, according to our sources, Cheney, National Security Adviser
Stephen Hadley; members of the CHECKMATE team at the Pentagon,
who have
close connections to Israeli intelligence and pro-Israeli think tanks
in Washington, including the Hudson Institute; British Foreign
Secretary David Miliband, a political adviser to Tony Blair prior to
becoming a Member of Parliament; Israeli political leaders like Prime
Minister Ehud Olmert and Likud leader Binyamin Netanyahu; and French
Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner, who did his part last week to
ratchet up tensions with Iran by suggesting that war with Iran was a
probability. Kouchner retracted his statement after the U.S.
plans for Iran were delayed.
Although
the Air Force tried to
keep the B-52 nuclear incident from the media, anonymous Air Force
personnel leaked the story to /Military Times/ on September 5, the day
before the Israelis attacked the alleged nuclear installation in Syria
and the day planned for the simultaneous U.S. attack on Iran.

It's plain to see that nuclear wars have been held back, up until now, and it's plain to see that Yahweh's People have been tested in this time period.
The final test, for certain
offices in Yahweh's Kingdom, for Yahweh's People came between October
13, 2007 and November 27, 2007 when about fifty nations signed an
agreement to put the abomination that makes desolate in charge. I
wonder if they truly knew what they agreed to?
Daniyl
12:12—
Blessed is he who
holds fast, and
comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-fifth day.
This time period brings us to 45 days past the end, announced by the man clothed in linen in Daniyl 12:7. In that 45-day time period, the House of Yahweh was made to look like criminals who molest children. Some were arrested, held without evidence, and excessive bails placed upon them. Their children were taken away from them and put into places where they are forced to eat unclean food, coaxed into fornication and not allowed to keep the Seventh Day Sabbath but forced to participate in pagan holidays.
These things are still going on
at this writing. We of The House of Yahweh know full well that the
Prophecies are true and will all come to pass.
Mattithyah
5:10—
Blessed are those
who are persecuted for Righteousness' sake, for
theirs is the Kingdom of Yahweh.
Mattithyah
5:12—
Rejoice,
and be exceedingly glad,
for greatest is your reward in heaven, for in the
same manner they persecuted the Prophets who were
before you.
Yahchanan
15:20—
Remember the word that
I said to
you: A servant is not greater than his ruler. If they have persecuted
Me, they will also persecute you. If they
have kept My Word, they will keep yours also.
I
Yahchanan 3:13—
Do not marvel, my
brothers, if the
world hates you.
Revelation
3:8, 10-11—
8
And to the Malak of the
congregation of The House of Yahweh in Smyrna, write: These things says
the First and the Last, Who was dead, and was restored to life:
10 Fear none of those things
which you will suffer. Behold, the adversary will cast some
of you into prison, that you may be tried. And you will have
tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you a
crown of life.
11 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the called out ones of The House of
Yahweh. He who overcomes will not be hurt by the second death.
Mattithyah
24:9—
Then they will hand
you over to
be afflicted, and will kill you; and you will be hated
above all peoples for My Name's sake.
Daniyl
11:35—
Yes,
some of
those with understanding will fall, to test them, to purge; cleanse
and purify, and to make them white—up
to the time of The End; for it is yet for a time
appointed.
Back
to the
nuclear wars held back and the count down that Yahweh gave to Daniyl
the Prophet.
Daniyl
12:7—
Then I heard the Man
clothed in
linen, who on that future day is teaching, when he held up his right
hand and his left hand toward heaven, and vowed by Him Who lives
forever, that: It will be for a time, times, and a
half, when Yahweh will have accomplished pouring
out His Power through His Holy People, all these things will
be finished.
Daniyl
12:10—
Many will be purified,
and made
white, and tried; tested; but the wicked will do
wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but the wise will
understand.
This
brings us
to the end or sealing of offices for certain people in Yahweh's
Kingdom, offices spoken of in Revelation.
Daniyl
12:12—
Blessed is he
who holds fast, and comes to the one thousand
three hundred and thirty-fifth day.
The one thousand three hundred and thirty-fifth day is 45 days past the end of the last time, sealing others who were brave enough to stay in Yahweh's House to that point.
If you count 45 days past October 13, 2007 it will take you to November 27, 2007, the date on which 53 nations met and gave their support to the final activities of the last 3½ years of the 7-year plan that was confirmed with Rabin. Fourteen years ago it was signed by the late PLO leader Yasser Arafat, the late Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and former US President Bill Clinton on September 13, 1993 and began October 13, 1993.
This peace plan was finished October 13, 2007 except for the activities that will sit the abomination that leads the nations to desolations, spoken of by Daniyl the Prophet, in the rebuilt temple, and give authority in the old city and throughout the land of Israel.
The Final Of The Activities Of The Time Period Shortened
Yahshua
showed
us this time period, the destruction and the one who brings the
destruction, saying in:
Mattithyah
24:21-22, 29—
21 For then will be
Great
Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the
world to this time—no, nor ever will be.
22 And unless those days were
shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect's sake,
those days will be shortened.
29 Immediately, but
after the Great Tribulation of those days will the
sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars
will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
This
same
Prophecy was spoken of by Daniyl the Prophet.
Mattithyah
24:12-15—
12 And because
iniquity;
the breaking of Yahweh's Laws, will abound, the love of the
many will grow cold.
13 But he who endures until The
End, the same will be saved.
14 And this Message of the
Kingdom will be preached to all the world by the One who bears witness
to all nations; and then the end will come.
15 Therefore, when you will see
the lord of heaven; the abomination of desolation, spoken
of by Daniyl the prophet, standing in the holy place—whoever reads, let
him understand—
The
Apostle
Shaul shows us that the activities of the religious, lawless system are
being restrained, speaking of the same time period of the coming of the
Savior.
I
Thessalonians 4:15-18—
15 For we say this to
you by the
Word of Yahweh, that we who are alive and remain
until the coming of the Savior will by no means precede those who are
asleep.
16 For Yahshua Himself will
descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the Malak Gadol,
and with the Trumpet of Yahweh. And the dead in Messiah will be raised
first,
17 Then we who are alive and
remain will be caught up together with them in the
clouds, to meet Yahshua in the air; and so will we ever be with
Yahshua.
18 So in this way, comfort one
another with these words.
Notice
the
times and seasons.
I
Thessalonians 5:1-4—
1 But concerning the
times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I
should write to you.
2 For you yourselves
know
perfectly that the Day of Yahweh so comes as a thief in the night.
3 For when they will
say: Peace—true
peace, then sudden destruction comes upon
them, as labor pains upon a woman with child; and they will not escape.
4 But you,
brothers,
are not in darkness, so that this day would overtake you like a thief.
In verse 1, the times is speaking of the time, times and shortened time spoken of by Daniyl the Prophet.
Please notice it's the desolator
that is being restrained, the desolator who brings forth the coveted
activities that produce nuclear wars.
II
Thessalonians 2:1-9—
1 Now we plead with
you,
brothers, concerning the coming of our King, Yahshua Messiah, and our
gathering together to Him,
2 That you not be soon shaken in
mind, nor be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as
if from us, as that the Day of Yahweh is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive
you by any means; for that day will not come,
unless there comes a falling away first, and that servant of
sin is revealed: the son of perdition,
4 Who opposes and exalts himself
above all that is called gods (elohim), or that is worshiped; so that
he, as the Almighty, sits in the temple of Yahweh, showing himself that
he is the mighty one (el, god).
5 Do you not remember that when I
was still with you, I told you these things?
6 And now you know what is restraining
him, so that he may be revealed in his time.
7 For the mystery of iniquity is
already working, but the One restraining him will continue to
restrain him, until he is made to appear in the midst.
8 And then that lawless one will
be revealed, whom Yahshua will remove with the breath of His mouth, and
make powerless with the appearance of His coming—
9 Whose coming is according to
the energy of Satan, who works with all power, and
signs, and lying wonders,
