But you will speak My words; the Law and the Prophets, to them...
whether they will listen or whether they will not...and they will yet know that there has been a prophet among them.

Mary,
The Guide To Peace?

My Dear Friends,

Below is a news article that shows the worship of a Mary to which the Pope is praying to for peace. This letter seems right and Righteous to those untrained in the Inspired Writings of the Apostles and Prophets. Quoting from an article published on zenit.org:
Pontiff presents Mary as road to peace
During Homage to the Immaculate Conception
Rome, Dec. 9, 2007—On the solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, Benedict XVI presented Mary as the guide toward peace.
During his visit Saturday to the image of the Immaculate Conception in Rome's Piazza de Spagna, the Pope proclaimed a "message of light and hope" to humanity.
Benedict XVI invited "men of every nation and culture" to welcome "this message of light and hope": "They receive it from the hands of Mary, Mother of all humanity."
...the Pope spoke of Mary as the Star of Hope...
The Pontiff concluded his words with a prayer addressed to Mary: "Show us the way that leads to peace, the way to the Kingdom of Jesus."

These are pretty words. They require no effort from the reader or listener. They produce no Righteous actions or instructions of Righteousness, and they are totally contrary to the Inspired Writings of the Prophets and Apostles.

The Pope prays to Mary, "Show us the way that leads to peace," and in the same prayer he asks for the way to the kingdom of Jesus. We are supposed to believe that Mary is the mother of the Savior presented in the Holy Writings of the Prophets and Apostles, and that Jesus is the Savior; neither is Scripturally true.

Miriam, The Mother of Yahshua

The name Miriam is a Hebrew name. One such Miriam, was the name of the sister of Mosheh who helped in Yahweh's Work. Another was Miriam, the mother of Yahshua, was the daughter of Eli or Heli of the tribe of Yahdah and of the lineage of David. She kept the Laws of Yahweh and believed the Prophecies of the Inspired Prophets of Yahweh. She is both dead and buried. She will not be alive again until the first resurrection shown in the Inspired Scriptures of Revelation.
Revelation 20:1-6—
1 And I saw a Malak come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, who is the devil, and Satan, and bound her a thousand years—
3 And cast her into the bottomless pit, and shut her up, and set a seal upon her, that she should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished; and after that she must be loosed a little season.
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them. And I saw the souls of those who were beheaded for their Witness of Yahshua and for the Word of Yahweh; the Laws and the Prophets, and who had not worshiped the beast, nor his likeness, neither had received his mark in their foreheads nor upon their hands; and they lived and reigned with the Messiah a thousand years—
5 But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection
6 Blessed and Holy is he who has part in the first resurrection; on such the second death has no power, but they will be Priests of Yahweh and of the Messiah, and will reign with Him a thousand years.

Miriam knew and believed she would be the mother of the Savior. She believed the Prophets who spoke by the Authority of Yahweh. She believed her Son, Yahshua, Who said, "We must believe all that the Prophets have spoken." He actually said it a bit stronger than that.
Luke 24:25-27—
25 Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!
26 Was it not necessary for the Messiah to have suffered these things before entering into His Glory?
27 And beginning at Mosheh; the Laws, and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

Isayah was one of the Prophets who wrote of Yahshua, the Savior, saying that He would be born. Yahshua said you're a fool if you do not believe all that Isayah spoke. Notice what Isayah said about consulting the dead, one of which is Miriam the mother of Yahshua.
Isayah 8:19, BOY—
And when they say to you; Seek those who have familiar spirits, and for wizards who peep, and who mutter—should not a people seek their Father? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living?
Isaiah 8:19, Amplified Bible—
And when the people [instead of putting their trust in God] shall say to you, Consult for direction mediums and wizards who chirp and mutter, should not a people seek and consult their God? Should they consult the dead on behalf of the living?

The English words peep and mutter are rendered from the Hebrew words tsaphaph and hagah and hagiyh, and carry the following meanings: peep-whisper, mutter-the heart, studieth destruction and their lips talk mischief, murmur, in anger, mourn.

There are spirits shown throughout the Scriptures that Yahweh shows are actually leading the world into nuclear wars that will destroy four-fifths of the earth's population.
Revelation 9:20, KJV—
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils...
Revelation 9:20, Amplified Bible—
And the rest of humanity who were not killed by these plagues even then did not repent of [the worship of] the works of their [own] hands, so as to cease paying homage to the demons...
Revelation 9:20, BOY—
And the rest of the men who were not killed by these plagues, still did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and gods...

These gods, the Inspired Writings show, are deceiving.
Revelation 12:9—
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.

One can plainly see that going to the graves to pray to the dead is forbidden. For more information on this subject you need to thoroughly read the main article in this month's Prophetic Word about the worship of the dead and Mary worship.

Remember the words of the Savior, Yahshua.
Luke 24:25—
Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!

There is a Mary that led the children of Israyl into destruction. She is identified as the queen of heaven. The following article from topical-bible-studies.org gives us information about the queen of heaven.

Ashtoreth
The Queen of Heaven

Strong's Exhaustive Concordance Hebrew and Chaldee Dictionary:
6252. Ashtarowth or Ashtaroth...the name of a Sidonian deity...:—Ashtaroth.
6253 Ashtoreth...the Phoenician goddess of love (and increase):—Ashtoreth.

Webster's New World College Dictionary:
Astarte...a Semitic goddess of fertility and sexual love, worshiped by the Phoenicians and others: see also ASHTORETH, ISHTAR.

Shekhina Hebrew Goddess website:
Shekhina [is] the Hebrew Goddess of the Kabbala.

Encyclopedia Britannica:
Through her identification with the Greek Aphrodite and the Roman Venus, Inanna-Ishtar, the queen of heaven, still survives in Roman Catholic iconography - e.g. as the Virgin Mary standing on the moon

Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, 1894:
Queen of Heaven with the ancient Phoenicians was Astarte; Greeks, Hera; Romans, Juno; Trivia, Hecate, Diana, the Egyptian Isis, etc., were all so called; but with the Roman Catholics it is the Virgin Mary.

Temple of the Temptress:
Diana was called the Mother goddess and Queen of Heaven, just as Mary is called Mother of god and queen of heaven.

The Children of Israyl Fell Into Deception

Yahweh caused the twelve sons of Israyl to go to Egypt to teach them the results of god worship, which is the worship of demons. The twelve tribes learned well the diseases that god worship brings. The Egyptians worshiped every known god as does the world today.

The gods of lust and wealth are most popular today. One god of wealth is Satan, the serpent, herself, known in the Inspired Scriptures as the queen of heaven. She lies and deceives, telling her followers that they won't die if they practice her sinful way of life. Her way of life creates and mutates diseases. Egypt was and is filled with these deadly diseases. These diseases are in the soil, in the water, and in the air. They bring much money to many in power through drugs.

The whole world today is now suffering from the diseases that plagued Egypt at the time of Mosheh because the whole world today partakes of the same lustful lifestyles, as did Egypt at that time. Yahweh told the twelve tribes, through Mosheh, that He would cleanse the diseases of Egypt from them if they would follow His Health Laws.
Exodus 15:26—
And said: If you will diligently listen to the voice of Yahweh your Father, and do what is right in His sight, and will give ear to His Laws, and keep all His Statutes, none of these diseases which the Egyptians brought upon themselves will you put upon yourselves; for I am Yahweh Ropheka; Yahweh Your Healer.
Deuteronomy 7:14-15—
14 You shall be blessed above all peoples. There shall not be a male or female barren among you, nor among your livestock.
15 Yahweh will take away from you all sickness. You will not be afflicted with any of the diseases you knew in Egypt, but they will afflict all those who hate you.

Deuteronomy 28:58-61—
58 If you do not carefully observe and do all the words of the Laws, that are written in this Book, in order that you may reverence this Glorious and Reverent Name: YAHWEH YOUR FATHER,
59 Then it will come to pass that you will cause to be brought upon yourselves and your descendants fearful plagues, harsh and prolonged disasters, and severe and lingering illnesses.
60 All the diseases of Egypt which you were afraid of, will also be brought back upon you; and they will cling to you;
61 It will come to pass that every other sickness and every other disaster, which is not written in this Book of the Laws, you will abuse yourselves with, until you are destroyed.

Where do we see the writings of the gods as a guide away from sin, sickness and disease? Yahweh, Who is not a god but above the gods, far above the gods, is the Only Being Who has Laws that are capable of guiding the earth and its people back to a healthy state of being.

What Was The Cause Of These Diseases?

When the King James Version of the bible was translated there was then, as now, a hatred for Yahweh and His Laws due to the evil propaganda, against the Inspired Words of the Holy Prophets, being put forth by the Catholic Church, that forbade anyone from possessing or teaching the Holy Inspired Scriptures. Those were the days of the Crusades, when they called anyone who taught the Holy Scriptures witches, and witchcraft was keeping the Seventh Day Sabbath or the Feast Days, as ordained by Yahweh.

The Disciples and their followers were among the martyrs of Yahweh's People. Yahweh allowed this to happen to prove to heaven and earth what happens when Righteous men and Righteous teachings are taken away. Yahweh allowed, as with Cain and Abel, The House of Yahweh at Abel in Galilee, Israyl to be taken away.

Yahweh also allowed the temple to be destroyed and the city of Yerusalem to be destroyed and Mt. Zion to be plowed like a field. Yahweh allowed all of this to prove that the mixture of Righteousness and evil, brought forth by the religions that follow the gods, cannot bring peace or health. Yahweh allowed the queen of heaven to have her way.

In the King James Version rendered by the Church of England, which is a daughter of the Roman Catholic Church, we find many mistranslations geared to bringing forth the thought that Yahweh is a vicious god that brings harm upon those who rebel against His Laws. A great example is found in:
Deuteronomy 28:58-61, KJV—
58 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, The Lord Thy God;
59 Then the Lord will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of they seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.
60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the Lord bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

The correct translation is as follows:
Deuteronomy 28:58-61, BOY—
58 If you do not carefully observe and do all the words of the Laws, that are written in this Book, in order that you may reverence this Glorious and Reverent Name: YAHWEH YOUR FATHER,
59 Then it will come to pass that you will cause to be brought upon yourselves and your descendants fearful plagues, harsh and prolonged disasters, and severe and lingering illnesses.
60 All the diseases of Egypt, which you were afraid of, will also be brought back upon you; and they will cling to you;
61 It will come to pass that every other sickness and every other disaster, which is not written in this Book of the Laws, you will abuse yourselves with, until you are destroyed.

Yahweh does not bring diseases upon us. We bring them upon ourselves by doing things that cause the diseases. Yahweh, as a Loving Father, advises us to follow His Health Laws so we will not defile ourselves and each other, so we will not defile the earth, water, and atmosphere. Leviticus Chapter 18 is a great example of Yahweh's teachings.
Leviticus 18:1-30—
1 And Yahweh spoke to Mosheh, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israyl and say to them; I am Yahweh your Father.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt where you dwelt, shall you not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you, shall you not do; neither shall you walk in their ordinances.

4 You shall observe and do My Judgments, and keep My Ordinances, to walk in them. I am Yahweh.
5 You must therefore keep My Statutes, and My Judgments, which, if a man does, he will live through them. I am Yahweh.
6 None of you shall approach anyone who is near of kin to him, in order to have sexual relations. I am Yahweh.
7 The nakedness of your father, which is the nakedness of your mother, you shall not uncover; she is your mother. Do not have sexual relations with her.
8 Do not have sexual relations with your father's wife, though not your own mother; it is your father's nakedness.

9 You shall not have sexual relations with your sister, the daughter of your father or of your mother, whether born at home or born abroad.
10 You must not have sexual relations with your son's daughter or your daughter's daughter; your granddaughters. Their nakedness you shall not uncover, for they are your own flesh.

11 You must not have sexual relations with your father's wife's daughter, begotten by your father; she is your sister; you shall not uncover her nakedness.
12 You shall not have sexual relations with your father's sister; your aunt. She is your father's near kinswoman.

13 You shall not have sexual relations with your mother's sister; your aunt. She is your mother's near kinswoman.
14 You shall not have sexual relations with your father's brother's wife. You shall not approach his wife; she is your aunt.
15 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law. She is your son's wife; you shall not have sexual relations with her.
16 You shall not have sexual relations with your brother's wife; your sister-in-law. She belongs to your brother.

17 You shall not marry a woman and her daughter, nor shall you take her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter; her granddaughter, to have sexual relations. They are her near kinswomen; it is wickedness and lewdness.
18 You must not marry a woman in addition to her sister, to be a rival to her, having sexual relations with the second sister while in the dwelling in which the first sister is living.

19 Also, you shall not have sexual relations with a woman during the uncleanness of her monthly period; niddah, nor during any similar uncleanness; zabah.
20 Moreover, you shall not have sexual relations with your neighbor's wife, to defile yourself, along with her.

21 You shall not give any of your children to the contaminating sexual practices of Nimrod, Romulus, and Remus (Babylon and Rome); which I, Yahweh, have forbidden you to do. You shall not profane the Name of Yahweh by giving your children to these gods (elohim) and their unclean ways. I am Yahweh.
22 You shall not have sexual relations with a man, as with a woman. It is an act that is injurious to others.
23 Neither shall you have sexual relations with any animal and defile yourself, along with it; neither shall any woman present herself to have sexual relations with an animal. It is confusion and perversion.
24 Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for this is how the nations who are going to be driven out before you became defiled:

25 For the world is defiled because they have given themselves over to sin; and the land itself vomits out her inhabitants.
26 You shall therefore keep My Statutes and My Judgments, and you must not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation nor any of the strangers that sojourn among you—

27 (For all these acts that are injurious to others. have the people of the land done, who were before you, and thus the land is defiled; unholy)
28 Or the land will vomit you out, if you defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you.

29 For whosoever shall commit any of these acts that are injurious to others, the person who commits them shall be cut off from among his people.
30 Therefore you shall keep My Ordinance, and commit none of these customs that injure others, which were committed before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them. I am Yahweh your Father.

If these Laws alone were kept over 90% of the world's defilement would stop.

Prophecy Shows Deception

You need our book, Unveiling Satan, Her True Identity Revealed, to fully understand the Plan of Yahweh and the adversary who deceives the whole world, through the religion that comes forth from the city that sits on seven hills. Compare the following Scriptures and remember that the serpent is a woman, the wife of Yahweh.

In the Hebrew language from which we get our English translations Satan, the serpent, the devil was referred to as a 'she' and 'her', not 'he' or 'him'.

The following Scriptures were mistranslated in order to hide the identity of the queen of Tyre.
Yechetzqyah 28:1-19—
1 The word of Yahweh came to me again, saying:
2 Son of man, say to that queen who is the adversary who rules Rome; This is what Father Yahweh says: Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said; I am a god (el); I sit in the seat of a god (el), in the midst of the seas__I (Yahweh) therefore say to you: Yet you are a created being, and not the Almighty, though you set your heart to be the Almighty.

3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniyl; there is no secret that they can hide from you.
4 With your wisdom and with your understanding, you have gained riches for yourself, and you have gathered gold and silver into your treasuries.

5 By your great wisdom in your trading, you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches.
6 Therefore, this is what Father Yahweh says: Because you have set your heart to be a god (el);

7 Therefore, behold, those who are foreign to you will be brought upon you, the mighty ones of the twelve tribes of Israyl, and they will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and defile your splendor.
8 They will bring you down to the pit, and you will die the death of the slain in the midst of the seas.

9 Will you still say to the face of him who slays you; I am god (el)? You will be but a created being, and not the Almighty, in the hands of him who slays you.
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers; for I have spoken, says Father Yahweh.

11 Moreover, the word of Yahweh came to me, saying:
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation for the queen who is the adversary who rules Rome, and say to her; This is what Father Yahweh says: You were the seal of the full measure of perfection, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

13 You were in Eden, the garden of Yahweh; every precious stone was your covering; the ruby, the topaz, the emerald, the chrysolite, the onyx, the jasper, the sapphire, the turquoise, and the beryl. The workmanship of your settings and mountings were made of gold. In the day you were created, they were prepared for you.
14 You were the guardian cherub, and I married you on the holy mountain of Yahweh; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until iniquity; sin, was found in you.
16 By the multitude of your merchandise they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned. Therefore, you will be cast as profane out of the mountain of Yahweh; and you will be destroyed from the midst of the stones of fire, O guardian cherub.
17 Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, and you have corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. You will be cast to the ground. You will be laid before kings, so that they may behold you.

18 You have defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities; sins, and by the iniquity of your trading. Therefore, a fire will be brought forth from the midst of you; it will devour you, and you will be brought to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those who behold you.
19 All who know you among the peoples will be astonished at you; you will come to a terrifying end. And never will you exist again.

Yechetzqyah 28:13—
You were in Eden, the garden of Yahweh...

Compare:
Genesis 3:1-7—
1 Now the serpent was more subtle and crafty than any beast of the field which Yahweh had made. And she said to the woman; Has Yahweh indeed said: You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said to the serpent; We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Yahweh has said: You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, or you will die.
4 And the serpent said to the woman; You will not surely die.
5 For Yahweh knows that in the day you eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as gods (elohim), knowing Righteousness and evil.
6 So when the woman saw that the tree was desirable for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.
7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized that they had sinned; they had violated Yahweh's Laws. Because they had not kept Yahweh's Laws, they were afraid.

Two religions were shown as trees in Genesis and even in Mattithyah Chapter 7. The Tree of Yahweh was total Righteousness. The tree of Satan, the serpent, was and still is today a mixture of Righteousness and evil.

This same deceiving woman is spoken of in Revelation as one who deceives the whole world.
Revelation 12:9—
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.

This same woman brings down the strength of the nations.
Amosyah 3:9-11—
9 Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say; Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great tumults; turmoil and destruction, within her, and the oppressions in her midst.
10 For they do not know to do Righteousness, says Yahweh: they who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
11 Therefore, this is what Father Yahweh says: An adversary is surrounding the land; she will bring down your strength from you, and your palaces will be plundered.

Had the twelve tribes believed the Holy Prophets they would not have fallen into the trap of worshiping Mary, the queen of heaven as shown in:
Yeremyah 44:1-3, 9-10, 15-19, 22-26—
1 This is the word that came to Yeremyah concerning all the Yahdaim living in the land of Egypt—in Migdol, Tahpanhes, Noph; Memphis, and in the land of Pathros, saying:
2 This is what Yahweh our Father, the Father of Israyl, says: You have seen all the destruction that Yerusalem and all the cities of Yahdah brought upon themselves; and behold, this day they are a desolation and no one lives in them,

3 Because of the evil that they committed in order to act defiantly against Me__going to burn incense and to serve hinder gods (elohim) of whom neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.
9 Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, the wickedness of the kings of Yahdah, the wickedness of their wives, your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they committed in the land of Yahdah and in the streets of Yerusalem?

10 To this day, none are humble, nor show reverence; they have not walked in My Laws, nor in My Statutes that I set before you and your fathers.
15 Then all the men who knew that their wives had burned incense to hinder gods (elohim), together with all the women who stood by, a great multitude in all, and all the people who lived in the land of Egypt and in the country of Pathros, answered Yeremyah, saying;

16 Concerning the word that you have spoken to us in the Name of Yahweh, we will not listen to you!
17 Instead, we will certainly do what we have vowed to do. We will burn incense to the queen of heaven and pour out drink offerings to her, just as we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, used to do in the cities of Yahdah and in the streets of Yerusalem; for then we had plenty of food, were successful, and experienced no trouble.

18 But since we stopped burning incense to the queen of heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked everything, and have been consumed by the sword and by famine.
19 The women then said; When we burned incense to the queen of heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, it was not without our husbands' knowledge and consent that we made cakes for her, to worship her, and poured out drink offerings to her.

22 No, it was because Yahweh could no longer bear the evil of your doings, because of the abominations which you committed, that your land has become a desolation, an astonishment, a curse, and without an inhabitant, as it is this day.
23 It was because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against Yahweh; and have neither obeyed the voice of Yahweh, nor walked in His Laws, nor in His Statutes, nor in His Testimonies; therefore this disaster has come upon you, as it is this day.
24 Yeremyah also said to all the people and to all the women; Hear the word of Yahweh, all Yahdah who are in the land of Egypt!

25 This is what Yahweh our Father, the Father of Israyl, says: You have spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled your promises with your hands, saying; We will surely perform our vows that we have made, to burn incense to the queen of heaven and pour out drink offerings to her. So you will surely fulfill your vows and perform them!
26 But hear the word of Yahweh, all Yahdaim who fellowship with the wicked inhabitants of the house of god (el, elohim)! Behold, I have vowed with My Great Name, says Yahweh: that never again will My Name be called in the mouth of any man of Yahdah who fellowships with all the wicked inhabitants of the house of god (el, elohim), saying; As surely as Yahweh lives.

Her Name Is Also Mary
Mother Goddess Worship

Archeological finds prove that mankind continues in rebellion regardless of the warnings spoken by Yahweh's Faithful Prophets. The following information is also presented in this month's issue of The Prophetic Word. Please read it carefully both times to fully grasp the depths of this deception.

Men, like Nimrod, built temples and kingdoms in honor of their gods. The kingdom of Babylon was one such kingdom, and the worship of gods and goddesses was predominant in that kingdom. And, it didn't stop there. Babylonian customs and practices of god worship spread throughout the land to other cities and kingdoms. In fact, much of the pagan worship of gods practiced thousands of years ago, can still be seen today.

Babylon Mystery Religion, Ancient and Modern, by Ralph Woodrow, pages 13-19, shows some interesting facts about the worship of Mary and the mother goddesses.

  One of the most outstanding examples of how Babylonian paganism has continued to our day may be seen in the way the Romish church invented Mary worship to replace ancient worship of the mother goddess.
  The story of the mother and child was widely known in ancient Babylon and developed into an established worship. Numerous monuments of Babylon show the goddess mother Semiramis with her child Tammuz in her arms.
  When the people of Babylon were scattered to the various parts of the earth, they carried the worship of the divine mother and her child with them. This explains why many nations worshiped a mother and child__in one form or another—centuries before the true savior was born into this world. In the various countries where this worship spread, the mother and child were called by different names... By the Druids, she was worshiped as Virgo-Patitura. By the Greeks, she was worshiped as Aphrodite/Ceres. By the Israelites, she was worshiped as Ashtaroth (the Queen of Heaven). In Ephesus, she was worshiped as Diana. By the Romans, she was worshiped as Venus/Fortuna and her son was Jupiter. In Asia, she was worshiped as Cybele and her son was Deoius. In India, she was worshiped as Indrani, who was also represented with son in arms. The mother and child were also known and worshiped by the names Devaki and Crishna. In Egypt, she was worshiped as Isis and her son was Horus. One writer said, "Regardless of her name or place, she was the wife of Baal, the virgin queen of heaven, who bore fruit although she never conceived."
  This false worship, having spread from Babylon to the various nations, in different names and forms, finally became established at Rome and throughout the Roman Empire... Inscriptions prove that the two (the mother and the child) received divine honors...not only in Italy and especially at Rome, but also in the provinces, particularly in Africa, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, and Bulgaria.
  By the third or fourth centuries... much paganism was mixed with Christianity. ... One of the best examples... may be seen in the way the professing church allowed the worship of the great mother to continue__only in a slightly different form and with a new name! ...many pagans had been drawn to Christianity, but so strong was their adoration for the mother goddess, they did not want to forsake her. Compromising church leaders saw that if they could find some similarity in Christianity with the worship of the mother goddess, they could greatly increase their numbers. But who could replace the great mother of paganism? Of course, Mary, the mother of Jesus, was the most logical person for them to choose...
  Little by little, the worship that had been associated with the pagan mother was transferred to Mary. ...it was not until the time of Constantine__the early part of the fourth century__that anyone began to look to Mary as a goddess.
  ...Epiphanius (d. 403) ...denounced certain ones...for worshiping Mary as a goddess and offering cakes at her shrine. Yet, within just a few more years, Mary worship was not only condoned by what is known today as the Catholic Church, it became an official doctrine at the Council of Ephesus in 431.
  At Ephesus? It was in this city that Diana had been worshiped as the goddess of virginity and motherhood from primitive time...

Please notice what has just been shown. In Ephesus, Diana was worshiped as the divine mother, the goddess of virginity and motherhood, which had originated in Babylon. This false mother goddess worship spread from Babylon to the various nations, and finally became established at Rome, where it was allowed to continue; only now, it was being transferred to the worship of Mary, the mother of god. In fact, Mary is worshiped as a goddess and the people offer cakes at her shrine, just as they did for the queen of heaven (Yeremyah 7:18).

Looking at various other sources, we are able to find much more information. A Dictionary of Mary, page 295, shows this:
  ...When in 431 the Council of Ephesus (q.v.) vindicated her also to be the Mother of God, the way was open to all the subsequent developments of Mariology (q.v.) and cultus.
  This veneration of our Lady in the East was already reaching full stature in the sixth century, and it gradually attained a degree of intensity from which it has never gone back. In the West its progress was for long not consistent and unbroken, but was subject to ups and downs. But there was a great revival in the eleventh century, and its impulsion lasted through the ages that followed, liturgy (q.v.) and on one another. Another period of development began with the mystics and spiritual writers of the seventh century, which in turn had deep effect on the notable intensification of Marian veneration in modern times. A testimony to this is the fact that, of eleven lesser Marian feasts today celebrated throughout the West, ten have been extended to the whole Western Church since 1683.

Mary Worship Identifies With The Mystery Religion

The worship of Mary has definitely intensified throughout the years. Lucifer has created a great deception by twisting one of the Prophecies of Yahweh written about Yahshua Messiah, in order to steal worship from Yahweh for herself. It is true; Miriam, the mother of Yahshua, was a woman blessed by Yahweh, a woman raised up in the Laws of Yahweh and chosen by Yahweh to carry and give birth to the Messiah. However, Yahweh never ever meant for anyone to worship her. Regardless, this is exactly what the world has been fooled into doing through the influence of Lucifer herself. Of course, the praise is not going to the dead Miriam, but rather to mother Mary, Satan herself. Reverence and honor are given to the queen of heaven daily, simply by calling upon the name, Mary.

Andrew M. Greely, a Catholic priest, sociologist, writer, and author, illustrates in his book, The Mary Myth, On The Femininity of God, how (and we quote) "Mary is part of a magnificent tradition of female deities.'' In his book, Greely goes on to say:
  As one pours over the history books of the early church, it is not really clear how Mary emerged as the new symbol of the feminine component of God. However, it is clear that by the early second century, Christian writers were speaking of her as the new Eve; by the late second or early third century, drawings of her appeared in the catacombs, and by the middle or early fourth century, direct and explicit devotion to her was well under way.
  Whatever was good was Christian. If the good was somehow mixed with the bad, that was no problem; the bad could be swept away and the Christian remain whole and clean. So the various local deities were transformed into saints, and the feminine goddesses were integrated, rehabilitated, and transformed into Mary. Whatever was good in the worship of the goddesses was already Christian and ought to be saved... Did there seem to be some similarity between Mary and Diana or Juno or Athene or Aphrodite? The early Christian shrugged his shoulders. So what?
  We know very little of the precise history of the transformation of the pagan Queen of Heaven into a Christian Queen of Heaven. It was certainly linked with the decision of the early church to absorb all that was good, useful, and beautiful in paganism... And we do not know precisely how this decision was made either. However, once that was determined, the popularity of the Queen of Heaven was such that she surely was going to emerge in Christian dress.
  It might well be argued that the fertility rites prepared the way for Easter, that Nut (the tender Egyptian goddess of the underworld) prepared the way for Mary. Humankind had to know the paschal lamb of the pre-Sinai Semitic tribes and the Passover of Pharisaic Judaism before it could know the risen Jesus of Easter. It had to know the tender Nut and the life-giving Demeter before it could know Mary the virgin mother. Mary, indeed, is part of the tradition of feminine deities... One need only compare the art inspired by Mary with that inspired by her predecessors to see both the similarities...
  It would be wrong to think that there was no anticipation in the pagan worship of the Queen of Heaven to the Christianization of that cult in the honoring of Mary. On the contrary, despite the sexual excesses and the persistence of human sacrifices beyond boundaries of the empire, there were strains in the pagan cult of the Queen of Heaven which almost seemed to demand transformation. One can almost go so far as to say that if Mary had not come along, the pagans might have had to invent her.

Greely then quotes Theodore Roszak's remembrance of Catholic background:
  The early medieval Church remained pliable enough to accommodate to some degree the widespread need for myth. The major manifestation of this was the cult of the virgin, which elevated the inconsequential figure of Mary to a stupendous symbolic stature. Here was the mother goddess Christianity lacked, worked up out of the meagerest historical material by the mythic imagination__a triumph of collective visionary power at times so sweeping that the virgin nearly crowded out the official trinity. Of course, the theology of the church deftly delimited mariology; but that had little meaning at the level of popular worship or artistic creation, where the virgin rapidly occupied the psychic ground that had always been held by Isis, Cybele, Magna Mater, and their ageless sisterhood. After all, how poor and unbalanced a religion it is that does not find a place for the Divine Mother.

Yes, the church leaders did remain flexible enough to accomodate the widespread need for a myth. The major manifestation of this, and we quote again, "...was the cult of the virgin which elevated the inconsequential figure of Mary to a stupendous symbolic stature.'' Yes, the pagan worship of the queen of heaven was Christianized, and changed to a cult honoring Mary. Yes, Mary is reverenced as the mother of god and queen of heaven, and prayed to as such. And yes, this is yet another example of Lucifer's attempt to deceive mankind into giving her worship, rather than Yahweh.

Of course, we know from Scripture that Miriam, mother of Yahshua, is dead and she waits for the resurrection. Therefore, we know Miriam is not the one who is actually receiving the worship coming from the woman that sits on seven hills. Who is receiving the worship? The original queen of heaven, of course. She is not dead, and as we can see from the following, she is the original Mary.

Mary Called
By Various Names

A further indication that Mary worship developed out of the old worship of the mother goddess, may be seen in the titles that are ascribed to her. Quoting from Babylon Mystery Religion, Ancient and Modern, by Ralph Woodrow, pages 13-17, we find this information:
    The Madonna
Mary is often called Madonna. According to Hislop, author of The Two Babylons, this expression is the translation of one of the titles by which the Babylonian goddess was known. In deified form, Nimrod came to be known as Baal. The title of his wife, the female divinity, would be the equivalent of Baalti. In English, this word means, "My Lady;" in Latin, "Mea Domina," and in Italian, it is corrupted into the well-known "Madonna!"

Notice the following article:
VATICAN
In the name of Mary, peace among peoples, God's only family, said Pope.
VATICAN CITY (AsiaNews) - In the first Angelus of the year, the Pope expressed his best wishes for a "peaceful and useful" New Year to more than 30, 000 pilgrims gathered in St. Peter's Square, entrusting it to "the celestial protection of Our Lady which today's liturgy makes us invoke using her most ancient and important title, that of Mother of God." Also in the "name of Mary, Mother of God and of men," he also entrusted the World Day of Peace, which today celebrates its 41st edition.
AsiaNews.it 1/01/08

Now, continue in the excerpt from Babylon Mystery Religion, Ancient and Modern:
    The Lady of the Sea
This title is applied to Mary, although there is no connection between Mary and the sea. The mother goddess of Phoenicia was called by this name.
    The Queen of Heaven
Mary is often called the Queen of Heaven, which is a title of the mother goddess that was worshiped for centuries before Mary was ever born. (Yeremyah 7:18-20)
    The Mediatrix
The Mediatrix or mediator has become one of Mary's names, and Roman Catholicism teaches that Mary is a mediator, although Scripture makes it plain that there is only one mediator between the Father and men (Yahshua).

The Dictionary of Mary, pages 285-286, shows us more about the titles of Mary:
   Titles of Mary: The official title (if the expression may be allowed) of Mary in the Western Church is simply the Blessed Virgin Mary (Beata Maria Virgo). But in ordinary speech and writing she is of course referred to in a variety of ways, by titles of dignity and honor or more familiar expressions of love and reverence, and these vary from country to country.
  Italians speak of la Santa Vergine, and very commonly, la Madonna (q.v.); ...The classical expression for Mary in the East is Theotokos (q.v.); ...But apart from all these there is an almost endless series of Marian titles properly so called, designating particular feasts, images, shrines, and dedications of churches.
  Canada: ...(Quebec) Our Lady of the Fields; Cyprus: the Panagia of Aphrodite; ...Egypt:
Mother of Light; Greece: the Panagia who sees-all; ...Italy: our Lady of the Bed, Our Lady under the Organ; ...United States: Our Lady of the Airways, ...Our Lady of the Knobs...

Some of the titles just mentioned, which are used to refer to Mary, are interesting because they are titles that are also used to refer to some ancient pagan mother goddesses, or they indicate specific characteristics that are applied to these mother goddesses. For instance, the title "Our Lady of the Airways'' brings to mind a Scripture concerning the princess of the power of the air.
Ephesians 2:2—
In which you walked in times past according to the course of this world, according to the princess of the power of the air: the god (el) that is now at work in the children of disobedience.

Please remember, the serpent, Mary, was the god that deceived Eve and convinced her to disobey Yahweh's Laws, partaking of the tree of Righteousness and evil.

Mary Is Out To Kill

Malachi Martin, a most noted writer for the Catholic Church, said Mary was going to make war against the nations that would not accept her and he thought that Mary would win and the nations would suffer greatly. Mr. Martin said this before the wars started against the Muslim nations.

The Savior said:
Mattithyah 5:17-18—
17 Do not even think that I have come to destroy the Laws or the Prophets; I have not come to destroy them, but to establish them.
18 For truly I say to you; Unless heaven and earth pass away, one yodh—the smallest of the letters—will in no way pass from the Laws, until all things are perfected.

What Yahshua is showing you in verse 18 is that Satan's intentions are to destroy the heaven and the earth. He is speaking of the heaven that Yahweh created that directly involves the earth that was made for man's raising and training in order to receive the authority that Yahweh created him to receive.
Genesis 1:1-20—
1 In the beginning Yahweh created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth became without form and empty; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Yahweh was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 And Yahweh said: Let there be light; and there was light.
4 And Yahweh saw the light, that it was beneficial; and Yahweh divided between the light and between the darkness.
5 And Yahweh called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and then the morning were the First Day.
6 And Yahweh said: Let there be an expanse between the waters and let there be separation between waters from the waters.
7 So Yahweh made the expanse, and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so.

8 And Yahweh called the expanse Sky. And the evening and then the morning were the Second Day.
9 And Yahweh said: Let the waters under the sky be gathered to one place and let the dry land appear. And it was so.
10 And Yahweh called the dry land Earth and the gathered waters He called Seas. And Yahweh saw that it was fitting.
11 Then Yahweh said: Let the earth produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds. And it was so.

12 And the earth produced vegetation: seed-bearing plants according to their kind and seed-bearing trees according to their kind. And Yahweh saw that it was right.
13 And the evening and then the morning were the Third Day.
14 And Yahweh said: Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark the Feasts, and for days and years.
15 And let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth. And it was so.
16 Yahweh made two great lights__the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars.
17 And Yahweh set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth:
18 To govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And Yahweh saw that it was right.

19 So the evening and then the morning were the Fourth Day.
20 Then Yahweh said: Let the waters bring forth an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky.

Genesis 1:26—
Then Yahweh said: Let My House at Abel make man in our image, according to our likeness; they will have rulership over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, over the cattle, and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.

The serpent, Mary, did not believe that mankind could receive this great potential or Righteous perfection of coming to be in the Image and Likeness of Yahweh the Heavenly Father until she saw Abel and his Righteousness. It was at this time that she knew that mankind was indeed capable of achieving the goal for which he was created and at that time she decided to try to destroy mankind plus the heavens and the earth. It was at this point that sin was found in her.

Her hatred for mankind, brought on by the thought that mankind would be above her in authority, incited her rage. We see signs of this throughout the Scriptures. She inspired sinful Cain to kill Righteous Abel. Yahshua said she hated the Apostle Kepha so much that she wanted to rend him like a rag but Yahshua prayed that Yahweh would restrain her from him. Her hatred for Yahshub (Job) was extreme and vindictive. She even fought for the body of Mosheh because it was he, the humble man of Yahweh, whom Yahweh allowed to train the twelve tribes whom he brought out of Egypt and away from service to the gods.

Satan knows full well that Yahweh's House, once completed and once they receive their power, will reign over the Malakim and angels.
Psalm 8:1-9—
1 How excellent is Your Great Name in all the earth, Yahweh our Heavenly Father! You have Your Glory firmly set above the starry frame; the heavens.
2 From the mouths of babes and sucklings strength by You is ordained, so You would still the enemy; the avenger would be crushed!
3 When we consider Your Heavens, the work Your Fingers framed, the work of the moon and of the stars, which were by You ordained;

4 What is man that You are mindful of him? And the son of man, that You visit him?
5 For You have made him a little lower than the Malakim, but You will crown him with Glory and Honor.
6 You made man to be the ruler over the works of Your Hands; You will put all things under his feet;

7 All sheep and oxen; yes, all the beasts of the field;
8 All the fowls of the air and the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the rivers in the seas will be under the rule of man.
9 How excellent is Your Great Name in all the earth, Yahweh, our Heavenly Father!

Mary And Her Promises

Mary, the queen of heaven, offered the position of pope to Yahshua Messiah. Read His response for yourself.
Mattithyah 4:1-10—
1 Then Yahshua was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the devil.
2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.
3 So when the tempter came to Him, she said; If You are the Son of Yahweh, command that these stones be turned to bread.
4 But He answered, and said; It is written: Man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the Mouth of Yahweh.

5 Then the devil took Him up into the Holy City, and set Him on the pinnacle of the sacred precincts of The House of Yahweh,
6 And said to Him; If You are the Son of Yahweh, throw Yourself down; for it is written: For He will give His Malakim charge concerning You, to keep You in all Your Ways. They will bear You up in their hands, if You should strike Your Foot against a stone.

7 Yahshua said to her; It is also written: You must not test Yahweh your Father.
8 Again, the devil took Him up into an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and the magnificence of them,
9 And said to Him; I will give You all these things, if You will fall down and worship me.
10 Then Yahshua said to her; You get away, Satan! For it is written: Yahweh your Father you must reverence, and Him only you must serve!

This is not a fairytale, it's real and the finishing Prophecies are coming to pass rapidly, Prophecies of Yahweh's Kingdom and its completion, and Prophecies of those who choose to follow Mary—Satan, Lucifer, the devil.

Yahweh's Laws are Perfect and Righteous.
Genesis 2:9—
And out of the ground Yahweh made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight, and desirable for food. In the midst of the garden were the Tree of Life and also the Tree of the Knowledge of Righteousness and Evil.
Psalm 18:30-32—
30 As for Yahweh, His Way is perfect; the Laws of Yahweh are tried. He is a Buckler to all those who trust in Him.
31 For Who is the Mighty One, except Yahweh? Who is The Rock, except our Father?
32 It is Yahweh Who arms us with strength, and Who makes our way perfect.

Psalm 110:1-7—
1 Yahweh said to my Ruler and King: Sit at My Right Hand, until I make Your enemies Your footstool.
2 Yahweh will send the rod of Your Strength out of those who keep all your Laws. You will rule in the midst of Your enemies!
3 Your People will have proved themselves obedient to the Laws on the day You go forth in power. They will unite with You, arrayed in their Holy Garments. Like the morning dew, they will completely cover the earth, governing with You.
4 Yahweh has vowed an oath, and will not relent nor change His Mind: You are a Priesthood forever after the order of Melchizedek.
5 Yahweh is at Your right hand. Kings will be grievously cut off on this day.
6 They will execute Judgment among the nations, they will fill up the earth with dead bodies (resurrect the dead bodies), they will wound; completely subdue and crush, the heads; governments, of the whole earth.
7 The One Who bestows succession, will set them on their thrones: Yahweh will exalt them.

To those who will repent and be converted to Yahweh's Laws, Yahweh will give Authority over the universe. The Savior said:
Mattithyah 5:48—
Therefore, become perfect, just as your Father Who is in heaven is perfect.

Many have already qualified for positions in that Kingdom.
Luke 13:28—
There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, and Isaac, and Yaaqob, and all the Prophets in the Kingdom of Yahweh, and yourselves thrust out.

There is still a remnant yet to be chosen that will work with the Priest here on earth. These will come from all nations, from the east and west to the Last Days' House of Yahweh.
Mattithyah 8:11—
I also say to you: Many will come from the east and west and will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Yaaqob in the Kingdom of Yahweh;

The nuclear wars that Satan will bring about soon are being held back by Yahweh. This again proves that Yahweh has power over the gods. They can do nothing but plan and scheme, but they can't make a move involving Yahweh's Plan without Yahweh's permission.

The nuclear wars that Satan believes will destroy heaven and earth and mankind will in fact devastate the earth and rock the heavens but they will not destroy them completely.
Mattithyah 24:29—
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.

Notice the stars will actually fall from heaven.
Isayah 24:18-20—
18 And it will come to pass, that he who flees from the noise of the fear will fall into the pit; and he who comes up from the midst of the pit will be caught in the snare; for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth are shaken.
19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is dissolved clean, the earth is shaken exceedingly.
20 The earth will reel to and fro like a drunkard, and will sway like a hut. The transgression in it will be heavy upon it; it will fall, and not rise again.

Those who follow Mary are shown by the Prophets and Apostles to be those who do not want to keep Yahweh's Laws and are given up, cut off from Yahweh and given over to a confused mind. The priests of Mary are being used by her to bring about these nuclear wars.
Isayah 24:1-6—
1 Before Yahweh's very Eyes, the earth is made empty and it is made waste; the face of it is perverted and its inhabitants scattered abroad;
2 And it will be: as with the people, so with the priests; as with the servant, so with his owner; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with him who takes usury, so with him who gives usury to him:

3 The land will be utterly emptied and utterly plundered, for it has come to pass that this judgment has been pronounced.
4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world mourns and fades away, and the haughty people of the earth languish.
5 The earth also is defiled because of the inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the Laws, changed the Ordinance, and broken the Everlasting Covenant.

6 Because of this, the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell therein are desolate; therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

In verse 2 we see this applies to the priests also.
Isayah 66:15-17—
15 For behold, Yahweh will come with zeal, and with His chariots like a whirlwind, to bring justice, for they have acted defiantly against Him. So, He will zealously rebuke them.
16 For by His Zeal and by His Word will Yahweh plead with all flesh; for it will come to pass that many will be slain.
17 They who sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens, following after the priests in the midst of those who eat swine's flesh, that which is offered to gods (elohim) and the rodent—will be consumed together: says Yahweh.

Those who survive will be keeping the Feasts and Laws that the Catholic Church changed.
Daniyl 7:25—
And he will speak great words against Yahweh, and will wear out; mentally attack to cause to fall away, the Saints of Yahweh, and think to change the Feasts, Holy Days, and Laws; and they will be given into his hand until a time, and times, and the dividing of time.

Zecharyah 14:16, 20—
16 Then it will come to pass that everyone who survives of all the nations which came against The House of Yahweh at Abel and the Priest who teaches peace, will also go up from year to year to worship their Heavenly Father, Yahweh our Father, by keeping the Feasts at The House of Yahweh.
20 In that day here will even be engraved on the bells of the horses: Qodesh La-Yahweh; Holy to Yahweh; and the pots in Yahweh's House will be like the bowls before the altar.

Yahshua did not take Mary's offer to rule all the nations of the earth, but the popes did. The popes are actually spoken of in the Inspired Scriptures as leaders of the kings of the earth, the same position she offered Yahshua.
Mattithyah 4:8—
Again, the devil took Him up into an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and the magnificence of them.

Notice now who took the job.
Revelation 17:1-6—
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.
6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the Saints, and with the blood of the Martyrs of Yahshua. And when I saw her, I wondered with great astonishment.

The woman is:
Revelation 17:18—
And the woman whom you saw, is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.

(Map From Unger's Bible Dictionary, page 934)
She sits on seven mountains (hills).
Revelation 17:9—
And here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits.

The Basic Everyday Encyclopedia page 451 gives us the following information concerning these seven mountains (hills).
Rome (the "Eternal City"), ... Traditionally founded 753 BC by Romulus and Remus, built on 7 hills...

Compton's Pictured Encyclopedia, 1948, Volume 12, page 144, also tells us about the city of seven hills.
...the "City of Seven Hills." ...the Capitoline, Palatine, Aventine, Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, and Caelian hills. ...the seat of the papacy, the head of the great Roman Catholic Church.

The waters are explained in:
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 Prophet Daniyl spoke of this religion that speaks against Yahweh the Creator and changed His Feasts and Laws.
Daniyl 7:21-23, 25—
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the Saints, and prevailed against them;
22 Until the Ancient of Days came, and Judgment was given to the Saints of Yahweh; and the time came that the Saints possessed the kingdoms.
23 This is what he said; The fourth beast will be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which will be different from all other kingdoms, and will devour the whole earth, and will tread it down, and break it in pieces.
25 And he will speak great words against Yahweh, and will wear out; mentally attack to cause to fall away, the Saints of Yahweh, and think to change the Feasts, Holy Days, and Laws; and they will be given into his hand until a time, and times, and the dividing of time.

Revelation shows the same religion in these Last Days and the dragon who leads them, making war.
Revelation 13:1-8—
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.
2 And the beast which I saw was similar to a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion; and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads, as it were, wounded to death. And his deadly wound was healed; and all the world wondered; followed, after the beast.

4 And they worshiped the dragon which gave power to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying: Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things, and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to make war for forty-two moons; months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against Yahweh, to blaspheme His Name, and His House, and those who dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the Saints, and to overcome them. And authority was given him over all tribes, and peoples and languages, and nations.

8 And all who dwell upon the earth will worship him—whose names have not been written from the foundation of the world, in The Book of Life of the Lamb Who was slain.

Mary has promised that they will not die and promises them the kingdoms of the earth. These kingdoms are hers at this time because you belong to whom you obey.
Romans 6:16—
Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves as servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey—whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to Righteousness?
I Yahchanan 3:7-8—
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.

None of the kingdoms of the earth are serving Yahweh at this time. They are all deceived into making war.
Revelation 12:9—
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.

All the earth, Yahweh says, will worship the beast.
Revelation 13:12—
And he exercised all the authority of the first beast before him, and caused the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

The kingdoms are hers for a while but she will soon destroy all her sinners with nuclear wars.
Isayah 13:9—
Behold, the Day of Yahweh comes, Wonderful, and with the time of sentencing and a Zealous Administration of Justice. The land will be laid desolate; and its sinners will be destroyed from it.

Sin is the breaking of Yahweh's Laws.
I Yahchanan 3:4—
Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.

Mary promises that sinners will not die.
Genesis 3:4—
And the serpent said to the woman; You will not surely die.

Sin makes you in the image of the gods and you belong to them.
Genesis 3:5—
For Yahweh knows that in the day you eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as gods (elohim), knowing righteousness and evil.
Romans 6:16—
Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves as servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey—whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to Righteousness?
I Yahchanan 3:7-8—
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.

Mary promises life but the Holy Prophets who wrote under Inspiration of the Only Creator whose Name is Yahweh say that there is only One Who has Power to give Eternal Life.
Yaaqob 4:12—
There is One Lawgiver, Who is able to save and to destroy—who are you who condemns another?

The Savior also says that Mary's promises of life are worthless.
Revelation 22:12-16—
12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.
13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15 For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and worshipers of gods (elohim) and everyone who professes to love, yet practices breaking the Laws.
16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Malak to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star.

His advice to all who are following the practice of sin as Mary enticed Eve is as follows:
Revelation 18:1-8—
1 And after these things I saw another Malak come down from heaven, having great authority; and the earth was enlightened with His Glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, My People, so that you do not partake in her sins, and so that you do not receive of her plagues,
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and Yahweh has remembered her iniquities!
6 Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works! In the cup which she has mixed, mix for her double!
7 In the measure that she glorified herself, and lived luxuriously, so in that measure give her torment and sorrow! For she says in her heart: I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will see no sorrow.
8 Therefore, at that time her plagues will come—death, and mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for just is the judgment that has come to pass against her.

This is the same burning that Isayah 24:1-6 speaks of that will destroy the sinners and burn the earth leaving few men left.

You need our book, There Is Someone Out There. There is only a short time left until the kingdoms that Mary offered Yahshua, and the Pope now leads, will actually destroy themselves according to the Holy Prophets.
Daniyl 7:26-27—
26 But the judgment will sit, and they will take away his government, to consume and to destroy it completely.
27 Then the kingdoms and governments, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, will be given to the people of the Saints of Yahweh, Whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all governments will serve and obey Him.

Luke 13:28—
There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, and Isaac, and Yaaqob, and all the prophets in the Kingdom of Yahweh, and yourselves thrust out.
Luke 24:25—
Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!

May Yahweh bless your understanding.
Love, true love, in Yahshua's Name,

Pastor Yisrayl Hawkins

 Yahshua answered, and said to them: This is the work of Yahweh; that you believe in
