**AMAZING TREASURES IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION**
Revelation 1:1-3: The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must take place. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John, who testifies to everything he saw--that is the **WORD OF GOD** and the testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it!!
Revelation 1:4,5: Grace and peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness... To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins **BY HIS BLOOD**!!
Revelation 1:19: Jesus said to John, "Write therefore what you have seen, what is **NOW**{Revelation chapters 2 & 3} and what will **TAKE PLACE LATER** {The rest of Revelation}
Revelation 2:9,11,17: Jesus says, "I know your afflictions, and your poverty--yet **YOU ARE RICH**...Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the **CROWN OF LIFE**...To him who overcomes...I will also give him a white stone with a **NEW NAME** written on it known only to him who receives it!!"
Revelation 3:12: Jesus says, "Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of My God. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from My God, and I will write on him My new name!!"
Revelation 3:19-21: Jesus says, "Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him and he with Me! To him who overcomes, I will give the right to **SIT WITH ME** on My throne, just as overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
NOTE: Jesus Christ our Savior is called the **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation.
Revelation 5:6,9: Then I saw a **LAMB**, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne...You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because You were slain , and **WITH YOUR BLOOD** You purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation!!{See Rev 7:9}
NOTE: 666 is called the **BEAST** 36 or 6X6 times in the book of Revelation.
Revelation 13:5-10: The beast will exercise his authority for 42 [30-day} months {Or 1260 days}.... He will be given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he will be given authority over *EVERY** tribe, people, language an nation. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose name have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the **LAMB** who was slain!! he who has an ear let him hear: If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints. {See Matthew 24:9-13}
Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB** and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!!
Revelation 6:9-11: I saw under the altar the souls of these who had been slain because of the Word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until You judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" Then each of them was give a **WHITE ROBE** , and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed!!
It is interesting to note that the **MARTYRS** and the 24 elders are the only saints mentioned as awake and speaking in heaven during the Great Tribulation in Revelation!
Revelation 7:9;13-15: I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language,{See Matt 24:14} standing before the throne and in front of the **LAMB**. They were wearing **WHITE ROBES**... Then one of the elders asked me, "These in **WHITE ROBES** who are they, and where did they come from? I answered, Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they {Martyrs} who have come out of the Great Tribulation, they have washed their robes and made them white in the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB**! Therefore, they are before the throne of God and serve him night and day and night in His temple, and He who sits on the throne will spread His tent over them!
Revelation 14:14-16: I looked, and there before me was a white cloud and sitting on the cloud was One like a Son of Man with a crown of gold on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand. Then another angel came out of the temple and called in a loud voice to Him who was sitting on the cloud, "Take your sickle and reap, because the time has come. for the harvest of the earth is ripe." So He who sitting on the cloud swung his sickle on the earth, and the earth was harvested. {See Matt 24:29-31 & I Thess 4:16,17}
NOTE: There will be 2 Comings of Jesus on the same Last Day. The first Coming will be **FOR HIS SAINTS** and the 2nd Coming **WITH HIS SAINTS** right after the Marriage Feast of the **LAMB**!!
Revelation 19:6-8,11,13,14,19,20: Hallelujah! For the Lord God Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the wedding of the **LAMB** has come and His bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean was given her to wear.... I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True...He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood and His name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following Him riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen white and clean (See Rev 19:8 above}... Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and His army. But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. {See Rev 13:11-17} The two of them were thrown **ALIVE** into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. Rev 20:10: And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.{Just like all their followers as per Rev 14:9-11}
Revelation 17:14: They will make war against the **LAMB**, but the **LAMB** will overcome them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and with Him will be His **CALLED**, **CHOSEN** and **FAITHFUL** followers!!
WE ARE ALL WAITING FOR THE NEW EARTH, THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE **HEAVENLY** NEW JERUSALEM!!
Revelation 21:1-5: Then I saw a **NEW HEAVEN** and a **NEW EARTH**, for the first heaven and first earth had **PASSED AWAY**, and there was **NO LONGER ANY SEA**.{See 2 Peter 3:10-13] I saw the Holy City, the **NEW JERUSALEM**, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and He will live with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making **EVERYTHING NEW**!" Then He said, "Write this down, for these words are TRUSTWORTHY and TRUE!"
Revelation 22:1-6: Then the angel showed me the river of the Water of Life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and the **LAMB**{Jesus} down the middle of the great street of the City.{See Rev 21:9-27!} On each side of the river stood the Tree of Life, bearing 12 crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month... The throne of God and of the *LAMB** will be in the City,{There will be only **TWO THRONES** in the New Jerusalem!} and his servants will serve Him. They will see His face and His name will be on their foreheads. There will be **NO MORE NIGHT**!! They will no need the light of the lamp or the light of the sun, {**AND NO MORE SUN** for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever. The angel said to me, �These words are TRUSTWORTHY and TRUE!!�
Revelation 22:16,18,19: "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony for the churches.... I warn everyone who hears the words of the Prophecy of this Book. If anyone **ADDS**{Like the Roman Catholic Church} anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this Book. {{Which includes eternal hell} And if anyone **TAKES WORDS AWAY** from this Book of Prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the Tree of Life and in the Holy City {The New Jerusalem}which are described in this Book!!"
THE AMAZING PROPHECY OF ST MALACHY IN AD 1139 THAT THERE WILL BE 112 POPES AFTER AD 1139 AND THAT DURING THE REIGN OF THE 112TH POPE THE END OF THE WORLD WILL COME. POPE FRANCIS IS THE 112TH POPE!!
St. Malachy was the Archbishop of Armagh, Ireland. He claimed he experienced a vision while visiting Rome in 1139 AD. He said he saw every pope that would exist from the time of his vision until the last pope. The last pope would be the 112th from the time of his vision. Malachy also stated that the last pope would be a very evil pope and that God would judge His people and the city of Rome would be destroyed during the reign of this last pope.
When John Paul II died on April 2, 2005, articles were written pointing out that the pope who would replace John Paul II would be the 111th pope. Benedict XVI was 78 years of age when he began his papacy on April 19th, 2005. Because of his advanced age, it was obvious that his reign as the Bishop of Rome could not last too long. Everyone understood the next pope, according to St. Malachy, would be the last pope. Malachy also said the church would be judged, Rome would be destroyed, and implied that the end of the world would come during this final papacy. The question on everyone�s mind was: How long till the 112th pope?
On February 11, 2013, Pope Benedict shocked the world by announcing his intention to resign from the papacy. This was the first resignation of a pope while in office in over 600 years. Benedict said that, at the age of 85, he no longer had the strength to execute the duties of leading the Roman Catholic Church. It was time to elect the 112th pope foretold in the vision of St. Malachy! Overlooking St. Peter�s Square, the announcement was made that Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina had been elected the 112th pope in the prophecy on March 13th, 2013!!
He was 76 years of age when elected pope and chose to take the name Pope Francis for his papal name. Francis is the first non-European pope and the first pope ever elected from the very Satanic Jesuit order. The Satanic Pope Francis is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics and it is quite obvious that he is very evil and Satanic and possibly would qualify to be the future False Prophet of 666!!
DOES POPE FRANCIS QUALIFY TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666??
Jesus is called a **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation and in Revelation 13:11states the False Prophet of 666 will be **LIKE A LAMB** which implies that he may be a very deceptive religious leader.
Revelation 17:9 shows that the future headquarters of 666 and his False Prophet will be the evil city on 7 hills or Rome; which is also the present headquarters of Pope Francis!!
A Roman Catholic Priest Says Homosexuality Is Gift From God, And That The Bible Is Not The Word Of God, And Then Pope Francis Kisses His Hand And Praises Him??
A 93 year old Italian priest named Michele de Paolis, considered to be Italy�s most rebellious priest and amongst the most universally notorious advocates for the Catholic Church to change its position on homosexuality, said:, "Homosexual love is a gift from (God) no less than heterosexual. This same damned heretic said, "The Bible �is� not the word of God And now, just a few days ago, Francis, whether by his own will or through some malicious advisors, celebrated mass with this evil man and then kissed his hand????
VATICAN CITY (RNS) Pope Francis on Monday (Oct. 27) waded into the controversial debate over the origins of human life, saying the big bang theory did not contradict the role of a divine creator, but even required it. The pope was addressing the plenary assembly of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, which gathered at the Vatican to discuss �Evolving Concepts of Nature.� Pope Francis said, �When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so,� Francis said. �He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfillment.� �God is not a divine being or a magician, but the Creator who brought everything to life,� the pope said. �Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.�
Giovanni Bignami, a professor and president of Italy�s National Institute for Astrophysics, welcomed Francis� comments, saying he had buried the �pseudo theories� of creationists. The pope�s statement is significant,� Bignami told Italian news agency Adnkronos. �We are the direct descendants from the Big Bang that created the universe. Evolution came from creation.�
Pope Francis: says, The Church could support civil unions??? By Daniel Burke, CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor (CNN) - Pope Francis suggested in a newspaper interview that it could support some types of civil unions. The Pope reiterated the church's longstanding teaching that "marriage is between a man and a woman." However, he said, "We have to look at different cases and evaluate them in their variety." States, for instance, justify civil unions as a way to provide economic security to cohabitating couples, the Pope said in a wide-ranging interview published Wednesday in Corriere della Sera, an Italian daily. State-sanctioned unions are thus driven by the need to ensure rights like access to health care, Francis added.
A number of Catholic bishops have supported civil unions for same-sex couples, including Pope Francis when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 2010, according to reports in National Catholic Reporter and The New York Times. Behind closed doors, pope supported civil unions in Argentina, activist says. But Wednesday's comments are "the first time a Pope has indicated even tentative acceptance of civil unions," according to Catholic News Service.
Francis delivers homilies each day, the contents of which are summarized by Vatican Radio. On May 22, 2015 he caused no shortage of confusion when he suggested that even atheists could find salvation. Obama has said the exact same thing!!! In his homily, Francis said: "The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us, with the Blood of Christ: all of us, not just Catholics. Everyone! 'Father, the atheists?' Even the atheists. Everyone!" However Jesus says, "No one can come to the Father except through Me." John 1:12,13: To all who received Him {Jesus}, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of human descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God!
Pope Francis also says "Who am I to judge homosexuals." and Pope Francis states that sincere homosexuals will also enter the kingdom of heaven just like Obama. But what does God's Word say?? I Corinthians 6:9-11: Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders will inherit the kingdom of God. {Unless they repent} And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Responding to a list of questions published in the paper by Mr Scalfari, who is not a Roman Catholic, Francis wrote: �You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don�t believe and who don�t seek the faith. I start by saying � and this is the fundamental thing � that God�s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart. The issue for those who do not believe in God is to obey their conscience. �Sin, even for those who have no faith, exists when people disobey their conscience"????
Pope Francis expressed praise on September 25th, 2015 for Obama's ridiculous nuclear deal struck with very evil Iran during a speech at the United Nations' General Assembly in New York. "The recent agreement reached on the nuclear question in a sensitive region of Asia and the Middle East is proof of the potential of political good will and of law, exercised with sincerity, patience and constancy," Francis says.
Pope Francis totally agrees with Obama and believes that all who do not believe in Global Warming are sinning and everyone who does not do something to reduce global warming is sinning.
Pope Francis is an extreme socialist who believes that all capitalism is extremely evil. Pope Francis also totally agrees with Obama that all who believe in evil capitalism are sinning. The Pope also loves socialism just like Obama and believes that anyone who does not believe in socialism is sinning!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that people of all beliefs other than Christianity such as Muslims and even atheists shall go to heaven if they are sincere and lead a good life.
For the First Time in History in History a Pope refuses to judge or condemn homosexuals or those who participate in Gay Marriage!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that everyone who does not believe in Gloibal Warming is Sinning and all who do not do something to reduce Global Warming is Sinning!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that **ALL** capitalism is evil and all who do not believe in socialishm are Sinning!!
For the first time in History the Roman Catholic Church has elected a **JESUIT POPE*!! One of the main enforcers of the Roman Catholic Inquisitions were the Jesuits. All Jesuits take the same Satanic oath today. Pope Francis has taken and administered this same Satanic Jesuit oath which includes the following amazing statements:
"I promise and declare that I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage war , secretly and openly, against all heretics and protestants as I am directed to do, to extirpate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex nor condition, and that I will hang, burn, waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive those infamous heretics; rip open their stomachs and wombs of their women, and crush their infants heads against the walls in order to annihilate their execrable race.
And so it is interesting to note that the 112th and last pope {??} who is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics agrees with Satan on everything!!
Matthew 23:9: "Jesus says, "Do not call *ANYONE on earth 'father,' for you have **ONE FATHER**, and He is in *HEAVEN*!!" This is an obvious reference to a SPIRITUAL FATHER since earthly fathers of earthly children are mentioned hundreds of times in God's Word. And so according to Jesus: calling the leader of the Satanic Roman Catholic Church 'Holy Father' is a terrible sin.
Pope Francis {Who Satanists call **HOLY FATHER**} has made a Papal Decree stating that he alone has given power to Roman Catholic priests {Who Satanists call **FATHERS**} to forgive **ALL ABORTIONS** which would include Gruesome and Horrific Abortions an hour before conception!! Is this **MURDER**??
As usual, the Satanic Pope Francis is absolutely contradicting God's Sacred Word!!:
Psalm 22:10: David said, "From my mother's **WOMB** you have been My God!"
Psalm 139:13: David said, "For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's **WOMB**!"
Isaiah 44:2: This is what the Lord says--He who made you, who formed you in the **WOMB**!
Isaiah 44:24: This is what the Lord says--your Redeemer, who formed you in the **WOMB**!
Jeremiah 1:5: The Lord said, "Before I formed you in the **WOMB** I knew you!"
And so we can safely conclude that Pope Francis completely qualifies to be the future deceptive False Prophet of 666 from the evil city on 7 hills!!
**ARE WE ONLY REDEEEMED AND OUR SINS FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST??**
John 13:34,35: Jesus says, "**A NEW COMMAND** I give you: Love one another **AS I HAVE LOVED YOU**, so you must love one another!" John 15:12,13: "Jesus says, "My command is this: Love each other **AS I HAVE LOVED YOU**. Greater love has no one than this, that **HE LAY DOWN HIS LIFE** for his friends!"
Matthew 26:28: Jesus says, "This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many **FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS**!"
Galatians 2:18-21: I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me! The life I live in the body, I live by **FAITH** in the Son of God, who loved me and **GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME**!! I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!!
Hebrews 9:12: He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by **HIS OWN BLOOD**, having obtained **ETERNAL REDEMPTION**!
Hebrews 9:22; 26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood **THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS**.... But now He has appeared **ONCE FOR ALL** at the end of the ages to do away with sin **BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF**!! Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, and Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people, and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!!
Ephesians 2:13: But now in Christ Jesus you who were once were far away have been brought near **THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST**!!
Hebrews 10:8-10: First He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them," although the law required them to be made. Then He said, "Here I am, I have come to do Your will." He sets aside the first **TO ESTABLISH THE SECOND**. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ **ONCE FOR ALL**!!
Romans 3:21-25: But now a righteousness from God, **APART FROM THE LAW**, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes **THROUGH FAITH** in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by **HIS GRACE** through the **REDEMPTION** that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Him as a **SACRIFICE OF ATONEMENT**, **THROUGH FAITH IN HIS BLOOD**!!
Romans 4:6-8: David says the same thing when he speaks of the righteousness of the man whom God credits righteousness **APART FROM WORKS**. "Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whom sin the Lord **WILL NEVER COUNT AGAINST HIM**!"{David was inspired to write this in Psalm 32:1,2}
Isaiah 1:18: "Come now, let us reason together," says the Lord. "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow!!"
Colossians 1:15-20: He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities, all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the **HEAD OF HIS BODY, THE CHURCH**; He is the beginning and the firstborn from the dead, so that is **EVERYTHING HE MIGHT HAVE THE SUPREMACY**. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things **ON EARTH** or things in heaven, by making peace **THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, shed on the cross!!
Colossians 2:13-15: When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you **ALIVE WITH CHRIST**. He forgave us **ALL OUR SINS**, having canceled the written code, with its regulation, that was against us and that stood opposed to us, He took it away, **NAILNG IT TO THE CROSS**!!.
Ephesians 1:3-8; 11: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with **EVERY** spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and **BLAMELESS** in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will--to the praise of His **GLORIOUS GRACE**, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have **REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, **THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS**, in accordance the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding!!
I Peter 1:18,19: For you know that was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were **REDEEMED** from the empty way of life handed down to you by your forefathers, but with the **PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**, Lamb without blemish or defect!!
I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself **BORE OUR SINS** in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness, by **HIS WOUNDS** we are healed{See Isaiah 53:5,6}!! For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls!!
I Peter 3:18 For Christ **DIED FOR SINS ONCE FOR ALL**, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God!!
I John 2:1,2: My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have One who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the **ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS**, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world!!
I John 4:10-12: This is **LOVE**, not that we loved God, but that He **LOVED** us and sent His Son as an **ATONING SACRIFICE** for our sins. Dear friends, since God so **LOVED** us, we also ought to **LOVE** one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we **LOVE** one another, God **LIVES IN US** and His **LOVE** is made complete in us.
Revelation 1:4,5: Grace and peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness... To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins **BY HIS BLOOD**!!

**WE ARE ONLY REDEEMED AND OUR SINS FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST??** {CONTINUED}
NOTE: Jesus Christ our Savior is called the **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation.
Revelation 5:6,9: Then I saw a **LAMB**, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne...You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because You were slain , and **WITH YOUR BLOOD** You purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation!!
Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB** and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!!
Revelation 7:14: These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation, they have was their robes and made them white in the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB**!!
Isaiah 53:5,6: But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed! We all, like sheep, have gone astray , each of us has turned to his own way, and **THE LORD HAS LAID ON HIM THE INIQUITY OF US ALL**!!
Romans 5:6-10: You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless. Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates His love for us in this: While we were still sinners Christ died for us. Since we are now justified **BY HIS BLOOD**, how much more will we be saved from God's wrath through Him! When we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to Him **THROUGH THE DEATH OF HIS SON**!!
Revelation 13:17b,18: "The mark of the beast is the *NAME* of the Beast or the number of *HIS NAME*. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, *LET HIM* calculate the number of the Beast {Even in AD 96 when Revelation was written}, for it is a man's number {Or "Number of a MAN"}. *HIS* number is *666*."
God has promised in the above inspired passage that any saint {Even in AD 96--which implies that the name was known in AD 96} with spiritual wisdom and insight may calculate the name of the beast which is a *MAN'S NAME* and adds up to 666.
During the last year of his rule Domitian Caesar decreed that everyone in the Roman Empire must worship idols of former Roman Caesar's or else they would be killed or put in prison. Historical documents show us that the Apostle John {Who then lived in Ephesus} lived to about AD 100 and therefore would have been alive during Domitian's evil decree of September AD 95 to September of AD 96. Since we can be sure that the Apostle John would never worship an idol of a Roman Caesar it is then highly probable that John was put in prison on Patmos Isle sometime during Domitian's evil decree from September AD 95 to September AD 96.
In Thess 2:3 the Beast of the End-Times is called a "*MAN* of sin or lawlessness" or very SINFUL MAN and therefore the name of the Beast which adds up to 666 is a *MAN'S* name which is also confirmed in Rev 13:17b,18 above. Therefore, the NAME of the Beast which adds up to 666 is a sinful *MAN'S NAME* and could not be the name of a woman or a city, country, computer or Satan, etc..
666 is also identified with a MASCULINE pronoun 28 times in God's Word which we will show later.
Rev 13:16,17: "He {The False Prophet} forced everyone... to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead. No one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name {666}.
666 is called a "BEAST" 36 {6x6} times in Revelation. The BEAST is a much better name than the antichrist since anti-christ is mentioned 5 times in God's Word {I John 2:18{2X}, 22; 4:3; 2 John 1:7} and each time the word encompasses all who are against Christ. Such as I John 2:18: "Even now many anti-christs have come."
666 is referred to in the MASCULINE gender 28 times and the Beast is never referred to in the feminine or neuter gender. It is interesting to note that if the Beast of the end-times will be a religious organization, country or city it would be referred to in the female or neuter gender!!! The masculine pronouns used for the Beast are "HIS" 11 times: Rev 13:1, 5,16b,18b; 14:9,11; 17:7b; 19:2; 20:4(2X) & Daniel 7:26. "HE" 10 times: Rev 13:1;6a,7a,7; 17:8b; 17:11; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:24,25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIM" 5 times: Rev 13:4b; 19:20; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIMSELF" 2 times in 2 Thess 2:4.
Actually there are **7 BIBLE CLUES** that show who the BEAST of the future 1260-day Tribulation will be. By an amazing coincidence all 7 Bible clues can be applied to Nero Caesar!!
{{1}} The BEAST will be a "MAN OF SIN" or very sinful MAN as per 2 Thess 2:3 above.
{{2}} The number of this sinful man's name is 666 as per Rev 13:16-18. The Bible was written by 40 Divinely inspired Hebrews in Hebrew and Greek so then it is highly probable that this man's name adds up to 666 in Hebrew or Greek. Nero Caesar's name adds up to 666 in Hebrew which we will show later in this Bible study.
{{3}} This sinful man whose name adds up to 666 DIED BEFORE AD 96 when Revelation was written. Revelation 17:8: The world will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was, now {In AD 96} is not, and yet will come!
We will show later why Revelation was written between Sept AD 95 and Sept AD 96. Nero Caesar lived from December 15th, AD 37 to June 9th AD 68 before Revelation was written in AD 96!
{{4}} This sinful man who was alive and then died before AD 96 was FATALLY WOUNDED by a sword wound to his head. Nero Caesar committed suicide with a sword wound to his head on June 9th, AD 68.
Revelation 13:3,14: One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a **FATAL WOUND**, but the fatal wound had been healed... He {The False Prophet} set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the **SWORD** and yet lived!
{{5}} This very sinful man who died before AD 96 was a KING in the Roman Empire as per Daniel 7:20-25. There were 11 Roman Kings or Caesars who died before AD 96 including the 6th Caesar {Nero Caesar} who killed Paul and Peter in AD 66; and whose name adds up to 666 in Hebrew. Domitian Caesar was the 12th Roman Caesar who was alive when Revelation was written in AD 96.
{{6}} The beast is also called an 8th KING who ruled before AD 96 as one of 7 evil KINGS crowned by the city on 7 hills or Rome. {READ Rev 17:9-11}
{{7}} This very sinful ROMAN KING whose name adds up to 666 and who was fatally wounded by a sword before AD 96, will "COME UP FROM THE *ABYSS* or *HELL* as per Rev 11:7 & Rev 17:8.
Revelation 11:7: The beast that comes up from the **ABYSS** will attack them!
Revelation 17:8: The world will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was, now {In AD 96} is not, and yet will come!
We know that the ABYSS is HELL by comparing 2 Peter 2:4 with Luke 8:30b,31. We can be sure that Nero Caesar is now in the Abyss or Hell since he killed Paul and Peter and thousands of Christians and sent Vespasian {the father of Titus and Domitian Caesar} to kill the Jews and destroy their Temple. The MAN OF SIN or Nero also killed his own mother and killed his pregnant wife by kicking her in the stomach.
Inscriptions have been found in Ephesus in which Nero is called "Almighty God" and "Savior". In Revelation 13:8a we learn that all the unsaved inhabitants of the world will worship the Beast.. Nero and Caligula "abandoned all reserve" in promoting emperor worship - they were the only two Roman Caesars who demanded divine honors while still alive. Nero claimed to be the sun-god Apollo. In 2 Thess 2:4 we read that the "Man of Sin" will proclaim that he is God!
Revelation 17:8: The beast, which you saw, once was {alive}, Now {in AD 96} is not {alive} and will come up out of the ABYSS and go to his destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book life. ... will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was {Alive before AD 96}, now {In AD 96} is not {Alive} and yet will come.
When I was a missionary in Israel I studied the Hebrew language. One of the first things that you learn when you study the OT Ancient Hebrew language {Which is also the language of Israel today!} is that the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet ALSO represent 22 numbers! When you read Psalm 119 you will note that the 176 sentences are divided into 22 sections; each section with 8 sentences or verses praising the Word of God. These 22 sections are each headed by one of the letters in the Hebrew alphabet in the exact same order as shown below. The ancient Hebrew language {Which is exactly the same as the modern Hebrew language} frequently used the letters of their alphabet to designate numbers in the OT as follows:
ALEPH=1. BETH=2. GIMEL=3. DALET=4. HE=5. VAV=6. ZAYIN=7. CHETH=8. TETH=9. YODH=10. KAPH=20. LAMED=30. MEM=40. NUN=50. SAMEKH=60. AYIN=70. PE=80. TSADHE=90. KOPH=100. RESH=200. SHIN=300. TAV=400. NOTE: Most vowel sounds except "O" {VAV} are not used as letters in Hebrew. These vowel sounds are designated by dots and dashes under their *PRECEDING* consonants. In Hebrew "N" is added on the end of all foreign names ending in "O". Therefore, the foreign name of Nero would be "NERON" in Hebrew.
The name Nero Caesar would be pronounced Neron Kaysar in Hebrew. The "E" in Neron and the 2 "A" sounds in Kaysar {There is no "C" in Hebrew} are designated by dots and dashes under their preceding consonants and therefore are not letters in the 22 letter Hebrew alphabet, and so have no numerical value. Neron in Hebrew would use 4 letters with numerical value: N-R-O-N and Kaysar in Hebrew would use 3 letters with numerical value: K-S-R. There would be a dot under the first N to show the "E" sound in NEron There would also be 2 dots under the "K" to show the "AY" sound in KAYsar and a dash under the "S" to show the "AH" sound in KaySAHr.
The 4 letters with numerical value in NERON would be {SEE TABLE ABOVE} N = NUN = 50; R = RESH = 200; O = VAV = 6; and N = NUN = 50 and 50+20+6+50 equals 306. The 3 letters with numerical value in "KAYSAR would be K = KOPH = 100; S = SAMEKH = 60; and R = RESH =200 and 100+60+200 equals 360. And so the numerical value of Nero in Hebrew is 306 and the numerical value of Caesar in Hebrew is 360, and therefore the numerical value of Nero Caesar is 306+360 or exactly *666*!
There is a very interesting footnote in the revised Standard Version concerning the number 666 which states that some ancient manuscripts have the number **616** which *DOUBLY* confirms that Nero Caesar may be the future Anti-Christ!!
You will note that the Hebrew language adds an "N" to all foreign names ending in "O". Now "N" or "NUN" in Hebrew has a numerical value of **50**!! and so if you decided not to add the last "N" in NERON then Nero Caesar would add up to exactly *616* in Hebrew and 616+50=666!! This is an absolutely amazing coincidence! Any honest Hebrew language scholar will confirm that the letters of Nero Caesar's name add up to 666 in the Hebrew language whose 22 letters are also 22 numbers as shown above, and the Bible was written by 40 Jews.
Since all of the prophecies concerning the antichrist are written in OT Hebrew {Like Daniel 7:8-25} or NT Koine Greek it would then seem logical that God would use one of these 2 Bible languages to identify the Name of the Beast whose letters add up to 666. One of the problems of doing this in NT Koine Greek is that the letters of their alphabet are not also numbers. And therefore you can only assign a numerical value of 22 to the 22nd letter, etc.. Using this formula you could not get any name to add up to over 250, let alone 666. You have the same problem with English & all other languages other than the Hebrew language!
The 3 different Greek words used in Rev 13:18b to arrive at the number 666 are the 3 different Greek words for 600 and 60 and 6 and not 6 +6 + 6.
And so the *6th Caesar {Julius, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius & the *6th* was NERO} ordered the execution of Paul & Peter in AD *66*. NERO fulfilled *ALL 7 BIBLE CLUES as to the identity of *666 and will be the Beast who comes up from the Abyss or Hell in the coming Great Tribulation!!
**BIBLE CHRONOLOGY BEGINNING WITH THE CREATION OF ADAM AN ENDING WITH THE ETERNAL 7TH DAY REST FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD**
These chronologies are recorded in Genesis 5:2-32 and Genesis 11:10-26:
Adam became the father of Seth at age .............. 130
Seth became the father of Enosh at age ...............105
Enosh became the father of Kenan at age ............. 90
Kenan became the father of Mahalel at age..............70
Mahalel became the father of Jared at age..............65
Jared became the father of Enoch at age ..............162
Enoch became the father of Methusaleh at age ......... 65
Methusaleh became the father Lamech at age.......... 187
Lamech became the father of Noah at age ..............182
Noah became the father of Shem at age ................500
Shem became the father of Arphaxed at age ............100
Arphaxad became the father of Shelah at age .......... 35
Shelah bacame the father of Eber at age ...............30
Eber became the father of Peleg at age ................34
Peleg became the father of Reu at age .................30
Reu became the father of Serug at age .................32
Serug became the father of Nahor at age ...............30
Nahor became the father of Terah at age ...............29
Terah became the father of Abram{Abraham}at age...70 for a total of 1946 years after Adam was created.
Abraham entered the land of Canaan at age 75 which was 2021 years after Adam was created.
Exodus 12:40: Now the length of time the Israelite people lived in Egypt and Canaan{See NIV footnote}was 430 years. At the end of 430 years, **TO THE VERY DAY** the Lord's divisions left Egypt.
So Israel left Egypt 430 years after Abraham entered Canaan which was 2021 years after Adam was created which would be 2021 + 430 or 2451 years after Adam was created.
Isarel entered the promised land exactly 40 years later which would be 2491 years after Adam was created.
Israel was then ruled by Judges until Samuel became the last Judge of Israel; 430 years later, after Eli Judged Israel for 40 years. So then Samuel became the Last Judge of Israel: 430 years + 2491 years; which would be 2921 years after Adam was created.
The time periods mentioned in God's Word after Israel entered the promised land until Samuel became the last Judge of Israel are mentioned In Judges 3:8 to Judges 13:1 and end with the 40 years of Eli recorded in I Samuel 4:18:
Judges 3:8: 8 Years Judges 3:11: 40 Years Judges 3:14: 18 Years Judges 3:30: 80 Years Judges 4:3: 20 years Judges 5:31: 40 Years Judges 6:1: 7 Years Judges 8:28: 40 Years Judges 9:22: 3 Years Judges 10:2: 23 Years Judges 10:3: 22 Years Judges 10:8: 18 Years Judges 12:7: 6 Years Judges 12:9: 7 Years Judges 12:11: 10 Years Judges 12:14: 8 Years Judges 13:1: 40 Years and then in I Samuel 4:18 Eli was Judge for 40 Years.
For a total of 430 years until Samuel became the last and greatest Judge of Israel.
When Eli had been Israel's Judge for 40 years he died when he was told that the Ark of the Lord had been captured by the Philistines {See I Samuel 4:18}and then Samuel became Israel's last Judge.
And when Samuel became the last Judge of Israel; the Ark of the Lord then stayed with the Philistines **7 months** {See I Samuel 6:1} Then the men from Kiriath Jearim took the Ark of the Lord to Abinadab's house where it stayed for **20 years** while Israel mourned as per I Samuel 7:1,2. After the Ark was returned to the Temple tent; Samuel continued as Judge of Israel. And so the Ark of the Lord was returned to the Temple by Samuel 20 years and 7 months plus 2921 years after Adam was created which would have been 2941 years plus 7 months after Adam was created.
I Samuel 7:15; 8:1-5: Samuel continued as Judge of Israel ....When Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons as Judges for Israel... But his sons did not walk in his ways. They turned aside after dishonest gain and accepted bribes and perverted justice. So all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel. They said to him, "You are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways; now appoint a **KING** to lead us." And in I Samuel 10:1, Samuel anointed Saul the first king of Israel and Saul ruled Israel for 42 years.
The time period from the after the Ark of the Lord was 20 years at Abinadab's house until Samuel anointed Saul as King of Israel is the only unknown GAP in the Bible Chronology from the birth of Adam until the present.
We will now show that the Bible Chronology from the Anointing of Saul as King of Israel to the present time is 3,031 years. And so the time period from the creation of Adam to the present is at least 3,031 years plus 2941 years and 7 months for a total of 5972 years and 7 months plus the unknown period of time, shown above, during the time Samuel and his sons were Judges until Samuel anointed Saul as King of Israel.
We will show that the chronology of the 22 Judean Kings of Israel until Israel was deported to Babylon for 70 years was 491 years. At the end of the 70 years in Babylon the Israelites were freed by the decree of King Cyrus to return to Israel exactly 69 7's or 483 years before the Anointing of Jesus in October AD 29. October AD 29 to October AD 2016 is exactly 1987 years. An so the total time period from the anointing of Saul to AD 2016 is exactly 3030 years which is 490 years + 70 years + 483 years + 1987 years.
**CHRONOLOGY OF THE 22 KINGS**
Saul king of all Israel for 42 years {I Samuel 13:1}
David king of all Israel for 40 years {I Kings 2:11}
Solomon king of all Israel for 40 years {I Kings 11:42}
After the death of King Solomon; the Kingdom of Israel was divided into Northern Israel with Kings of Israel and southern Israel with 19 kings of Judah with headquarters in Jerusalem. The Kingdom of northern Israel was exiled by the King of Assyria during the reign of Ahaz king of Judah. {Read 2 Kings 17:1-41}
**19 KINGS OF JUDAH**
Rehoboam king for 17 years {I Kings 14:21}
Abijah king for 5 years {I Kings 15:1,2}
Asa king for 41 years {I Kings 15:9,10}
Jehoshaphat king for 25 years {2 Chron 20:31}
Jehoram king for 8 years {2 Chron 21:5}
Ahaziah king for 1 year {2 Chron 22:2}
Joash hidden in Temple for 6 years as the King of Israel Athaliah ruled for 6 years {2 Chron 22:12}
Joash then became king for 40 years {2 Chron 24:19}
Amaziah king for 29 years {2 Chron 25:1}
Uzziah {Also called Azariah} king for 52 years {2 Chron 26:2}
Jotham king for 16 years {2 Chron 27:1}
Ahaz king for 16 years {2 Chron 28:1}
Hezekiah king for 29 years {2 Chron 29:1}
Manasseh king for 55 years { 2 Chron 33:1}
Amon king for 2 years {2 Chron 33:21}
Josiah king for 31 years {2 Chron 34:1}
Jehoahaz king for 3 months {2 Chron 36:2}
Jehoiakim king for 11 years {2 Chron 36:5}
Jehoiachin king for 3 months {2 Chron 36:9}
Zedekiah king for 11 years {2 Chron 36:11} for a total of 491 years for the 22 kings above before the 70-year exile of Israel.
This was Immediately followed by the 70 year exile of Israel to Babylon.{See 2 Chronicles 36:20,21}
250 years earlier the Lord made this amazing prophecy in Isaiah 45:13: The Lord said, "I will raise up Cyrus in My righteousness. He will rebuild My city and set my exiles free!!" {Read 2 Chronicles 36:22,23}
Daniel 9:24,25: 70 7's {or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your Holy City... Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus} to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the Ruler, comes, there will be 7 7's and 62 7's {69 7's or 483 years}!!
And so this amazing prophecy confirms that the coming and Anointing of the Anointed Savior would take pace exactly 69 7's or 483 years after the decree of Cyrus and Daniel 9:27a states that in the middle of the Last 7 the Anointed one would put an end to all meaningful sacrifices for sin by the sacrifice of Himself. The Anointed One was baptized and then Anointed by God {See Luke 3:21,22} on October 23rd, AD 29 exactly 1260 days before he put an end to all sacrifices for sin; and ending with His Resurrection on April 5th AD 33.
October 23rd, AD 2016 is exactly 1987 years after the Anointing of the Anointed One which is 3,030 years after Samuel anointed Saul the first king of Israel. And the time period from the creation of Adam to the Ark of the Lord being restored to the Temple by Samuel is 2941 years plus 7 months. The total time period of these two Bible Chronologies is 5971 years plus 7 months. And the time period from Samuel returning the Ark of the Lord to the Temple to the time period Samuel's anointing of Saul as the first king of Israel is the only time period in Bible Chronology which is mysteriously **UNKNOWN**??
It is interesting to note that this **UNKNOWN** time period took place during the Time of Samuel who was God's **FIRST** and one of His greatest prophets. Samuel is mentioned 144 times in God's Word and God spoke to him over 10 times in Scripture. Samuel made great sermons and anointed Saul as the first king of Israel and anointed David at age 17 as the future greatest king of Israel.
Acts 3:24: Indeed, all the prophets from Samuel on, as many as have spoken have foretold **THESE DAYS**!!
Daniel 9:24: 70 7's are decreed... to **ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS**{After 69 1/2 7's}, **TO BRING IN EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS**{After 70 7's} and **TO ANOINT THE MOST HOLY**{After 69 7's or 483 years!!} The last half of the Last 7 would be the 1260-day Great Tribulation just before the glorious Coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on the Last Day of the 70th 7!!
2 Peter 3:3,4.8,9: First of all, you must understand that in the Last Days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, "Where is the **COMING** He promised??... But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: **A DAY IS LIKE 1,000 YEARS** and **1,000 YEARS IS LIKE A DAY**!! The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness!!
Hebrews 4:8,9: For if Joshua had given them rest {in Israel}, God would not have spoken about **ANOTHER DAY**!! There remains, then, **A SABBATH-REST** {Or **ETERNAL 7TH-DAY REST AFTER SIX 1,000 YEAR LORD'S DAYS OR 6,000 YEARS AFTER THE CREATION OF ADAM???** for the people of God!!
Revelation 21:1-5: Then I saw a **NEW HEAVEN** and a **NEW EARTH**, for the first heaven and first earth had **PASSED AWAY**, and there was **NO LONGER ANY SEA**.{See 2 Peter 3:10-13] I saw the Holy City, the **NEW JERUSALEM**, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and He will live with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." {An **ETERNAL 7TH-DAY REST** and **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS**} He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making **EVERYTHING NEW**!" Then He said, "Write this down, for these words are **TRUSTWORTHY and TRUE**!"
Could it be that the reason there is the above unknown GAP in the Bible Chronology; which may end at the end of Six Lord's Days or 6,000 Years at the Second Coming of Jesus on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation; when there will be **AN ETERNAL **7TH DAY REST** FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD** and **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUNESS**!! And since the time period of this 28-year GAP in Bible Chronology is **UNKNOWN** the beginning of the 1260-day Great Tribulation may be extremely close???!!! Since we can be reasonably sure that the unknown time period that Samuel and his sons were Judges just before Saul became king should be over 20 years!!
**INTERESTING **70 YEAR** TIME PERIODS IN BIBLE PROPHECY**!!
It is interesting to note that the Kings of Israel ruled 490 or **70 YEARS** times 7 years, which was immediately followed by a **70 YEAR** exile of the Jews, which was then immediately followed by the amazing prophesy of the **70 YEARS** times 7 years which will end with the 2nd coming of Jesus and Everlasting Righteousness and the eternal 7th-Day Rest for the people of God.
Matthew 18::21,22: Peter asked Jesus, How many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not 7 times, but **70** times 7 {Or 490} times!" {See NIV footnote}
Jesus is called the Son of David 17 times and David lived exactly **70 YEARS** as per 2 Samuel 5:4.
Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time are you going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said , "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority."
This prophecy was fulfilled and The kingdom was restored to Israel at midnight on May 14th, AD 1948. It is interesting to note that **70 YEARS** after midnight, May 14th, 1948 will be at midnight, May 14th, 2018!!???
By a very interesting coincidense this prophesy and the rising of Jesus to heaven took place exactly 40 days after the Resurrection of Jesus when our Savior put an end to all sacrifices for sin in the middle of the last 7 of the **70 YEARS** times 7 !! The Resurrection of Jesus took place on April 5th, AD 33 and 40 Bible days after April 5th, AD 33 would be **ASCENSION DAY** and would have been on sundown, May 14th AD 33 to sundown, May 15th, AD 33!! And so midnight, May 14th, AD 1948 is **ASCENSION DAY** and **70 YEARS** later at midnight, May 14th, 2018 would also take place on **ASCENSION DAY**!!.
Acts 1:1-3; 6-11: I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach until the **DAY** He was taken up to heaven... After His suffering, He showed Himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that He was alive. He appeared to them over a period of **FORTY DAYS** and spoke about the kingdom of God...So when they met together, they asked Him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said to them, "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority {On May 14th, 1948}... After He said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight . They were looking intently up into the sky as He was going, when suddenly **TWO MEN** {Moses & Elijah} dressed in white stood beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven!!" {On the Last Day of the **70 YEARS** times 7; when he will bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** and the eternal **7TH DAY REST** for the people of God after **SIX 1,000 YEAR LORD'S DAYS** after the creation of Adam!!}
**INTERESTING SPECULATIVE QUESTION??
Will something interesting happen related to the **70 YEARS** times 7; take place exactly **70 YEARS** after the rebirth of Israel?? Such as the beginning of the Last half of the **70**th 7.{The 1260-day Great Tribulation} or the coming of God's two witnesses {Moses and Elijah} for their 1260-day testimony??? This, of course, is just a very interesting **SPECULATION**!
Immediately after the Resurrection Day of the saints mentioned in I Thessalonians 4:16,17 we read in I Thessalonians 5:4,5: But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that **THIS DAY** should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness!!
Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!!"
When the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins or the 1260-day testimony of Moses and Elijah begins 1263 1/2 days before the Last Day; the saints will then know the Last Day when Jesus will come and **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** and our eternal **7TH-DAY REST ** after **SIX 1,000 YEAR DAYS** begins!!
**DOES POPE FRANCIS QUALIFY TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666**???
Matthew 23:9: "Jesus says, "Do not call *ANYONE on earth 'father,' for you have **ONE FATHER**, and He is in *HEAVEN*!!" This is an obvious reference to a SPIRITUAL FATHER since earthly fathers of earthly children are mentioned hundreds of times in God's Word.
And so according to Jesus calling priests 'Fathers' or the leader of the Satanic Roman Catholic Church 'Holy Father' is a terrible sin.
John 14:23,24: Jesus says, "If anyone loves Me, he will obey My teaching. My Father will love him and We will come to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love Me will not obey My teaching. These words you hear are not My own, they belong to the Father who sent Me!!"
I John 2:3-5: We know that we have come to know Him {Jesus} **IF** we obey His commands. The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him, But if anyone obeys His word, God's love is truly made complete in him!!
Ephesians 1:19-23: That power is like the working of His {The Father} mighty strength, which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the *PRESENT AGE** but also in the one to come. And God placed **ALL THINGS** under His feet and appointed Him to be the **HEAD OVER EVERYTHING FOR THE CHURCH**, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way!!
Ephesians 4:15,16: Speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the **HEAD**, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work!
MATTHEW 28:18-20: Jesus says, "**ALL AUTHORITY** in heaven and **ON EARTH** has been given to **ME**. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations...teaching tem to **OBEY EVERYTHING** I have commanded you. And surely **I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS**, to the very end of the age!!"
A Roman Catholic Priest Says Homosexuality Is Gift From God, And That The Bible Is Not The Word Of God, And Then Pope Francis Kisses His Hand And Praises Him??
A 93 year old Italian priest named Michele de Paolis, considered to be Italy�s most rebellious priest and amongst the most universally notorious advocates for the Catholic Church to change its position on homosexuality, said:? homosexual love is a gift from (God) no less than heterosexual. This same damned heretic said: ? The Bible �is� not the word of God And now, just a few days ago, Francis, whether by his own will or through some malicious advisors, celebrated mass with this evil man and then kissed his hand????
VATICAN CITY (RNS) Pope Francis on Monday (Oct. 27) waded into the controversial debate over the origins of human life, saying the big bang theory did not contradict the role of a divine creator, but even required it. The pope was addressing the plenary assembly of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, which gathered at the Vatican to discuss �Evolving Concepts of Nature.� Pope Francis said, �When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so,� Francis said. �He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfillment.� �God is not a divine being or a magician, but the Creator who brought everything to life,� the pope said. �Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.�
Giovanni Bignami, a professor and president of Italy�s National Institute for Astrophysics, welcomed Francis� comments, saying he had buried the �pseudo theories� of creationists. The pope�s statement is significant,� Bignami told Italian news agency Adnkronos. �We are the direct descendants from the Big Bang that created the universe. Evolution came from creation.�
Pope Francis: says, The Church could support civil unions??? By Daniel Burke, CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor (CNN) - Pope Francis suggested in a newspaper interview that it could support some types of civil unions. The Pope reiterated the church's longstanding teaching that "marriage is between a man and a woman." However, he said, "We have to look at different cases and evaluate them in their variety." States, for instance, justify civil unions as a way to provide economic security to cohabitating couples, the Pope said in a wide-ranging interview published Wednesday in Corriere della Sera, an Italian daily. State-sanctioned unions are thus driven by the need to ensure rights like access to health care, Francis added.
A number of Catholic bishops have supported civil unions for same-sex couples, including Pope Francis when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 2010, according to reports in National Catholic Reporter and The New York Times. Behind closed doors, the Pope Francis supported civil unions in Argentina, an activist says. But Wednesday's comments are "the first time a Pope has indicated even tentative acceptance of civil unions," according to Catholic News Service.
Francis delivers homilies each day, the contents of which are summarized by Vatican Radio. On May 22, he caused no shortage of confusion when he suggested that even atheists could find salvation. The False Prophet of 666 will say the exact same thing!!! In his homily, Francis said: "The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us, with the Blood of Christ: all of us, not just Catholics. Everyone! 'Father, the atheists?' Even the atheists. Everyone!" However Jesus says, "No one can come to the Father except through Me."
John 1:12,13: To all who received Him {Jesus}, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of human descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God!
Pope Francis also says "Who am I to judge homosexuals." and Pope Francis states that sincere homosexuals will also enter the kingdom of heaven. But what does God's Word say?? I Corinthians 6:9-11: Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders will inherit the kingdom of God. {Unless they repent} And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Responding to a list of questions published in the paper by Mr Scalfari, who is not a Roman Catholic, Francis wrote: �You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don�t believe and who don�t seek the faith. I start by saying � and this is the fundamental thing � that God�s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart. The issue for those who do not believe in God is to obey their conscience. �Sin, even for those who have no faith, exists when people disobey their conscience.�????
Pope Francis believes that all who do not believe in Global Warming are Sinning and everyone who does not do something to reduce Global Warming is Sinning.
Pope Francis is an extreme socialist who believes that all capitalism is extremely evil. Pope Francis believes that all who believe in evil capitalism are Sinning. The Pope also loves socialism and believes that anyone who does not believe in socialism is Sinning!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that women who have an abortion shall be automatically forgiven starting on Decemnber 8th, 2015!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that people of all beliefs other than Christianity such as Muslims and even atheists shall go to heaven if they are sincere and lead a good life.
For the First Time in History in History a Pope refuses to judge or condemn homosexuals or those who participate in Gay Marriage!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that everyone who does not believe in Global Warming is Sinning and all who do not do something to reduce Global Warming is Sinning!!
For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that **ALL** capitalism is evil and all who do not believe in socialism are Sinning!!
For the first time in History the Roman Catholic Church has elected a **JESUIT POPE*!! One of the main enforcers of the Roman Catholic Inquisitions were the Jesuits. All Jesuits take the same Satanic oath today. Pope Francis has taken and administered this same Satanic Jesuit oath which includes the following amazing statements:
"I promise and declare that I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage war , secretly and openly, against all heretics and protestants as I am directed to do, to extirpate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex nor condition, and that I will hang, burn, waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive those infamous heretics; rip open their stomachs and wombs of their women, and crush their infants heads against the walls in order to annihilate their execrable race.
And so we can safely conclude that Pope Francis completely qualifies to be the future False Prophet of 666 from the evil city on 7 hills!!
THE AMAZING PROPHECY OF ST MALACHY IN AD 1139 THAT THERE WILL BE 112 POPES AFTER AD 1139 AND THAT DURING THE REIGN OF THE 112TH POPE THE END OF THE WORLD WILL COME. **POPE FRANCIS IS THE 112TH POPE**!!
St. Malachy was the Archbishop of Armagh, Ireland. St Malachy like Luther was considered to be a good Roman Catholic who was well-known for helping the poor. He claimed he experienced a vision while visiting Rome in 1139 AD. He said he saw every pope that would exist from the time of his vision until the last pope. The last pope would be the 112th from the time of his vision. Malachy also stated that the last pope would be a very evil pope and that God would judge His people and the city of Rome would be destroyed during the reign of this last pope.
When John Paul II died on April 2, 2005, articles were written pointing out that the pope who would replace John Paul II would be the 111th pope. Benedict XVI was 78 years of age when he began his papacy on April 19th, 2005. Because of his advanced age, it was obvious that his reign as the Bishop of Rome could not last too long. Everyone understood the next pope, according to St. Malachy, would be the last pope. Malachy also said the church would be judged, Rome would be destroyed, and implied that the end of the world would come during this final papacy. The question on everyone�s mind was: How long till the 112th pope?
On February 11, 2013, Pope Benedict shocked the world by announcing his intention to resign from the papacy. This was the first resignation of a pope while in office in over 600 years. Benedict said that, at the age of 85, he no longer had the strength to execute the duties of leading the Roman Catholic Church. It was time to elect the 112th pope foretold in the vision of St. Malachy! Overlooking St. Peter�s Square, the announcement was made that Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina had been elected the 112th pope in the prophecy on March 13th, 2013!!
He was 76 years of age when elected pope and chose to take the name Pope Francis for his papal name. Francis is the first non-European pope and the first pope ever elected from the very Satanic Jesuit order.
Jesus, our Savior, and the King of kings is called a **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation. In Revelation 13:11 the future False Prophet of 666 is said to be **LIKE A LAMB** which indicates that he will be a religious leader just like Pope Francis. The headquarters of 666 and his False Prophet will be the evil city on 7 Hills {See Rev 17:9}, which is Rome, where Pope Francis is already a powerful world and religious leader!!
The Satanic Pope Francis is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics and is well-known throughout the world; and it is quite obvious that he is deviously evil and Satanic and completely qualifies to be the future False Prophet of 666!! This is, of course, just a very interesting **SPECULATIOIN**.
**WHAT WILL TAKE PLACE DURING THE 42-MONTH GREAT TRIBULATION IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS**???
NOTE: 666 is called the **BEAST** 36 {6X6} times in the book of Revelation and Jesus is called the **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation. 42 30 day months is also 1260 days.
Revelation 13:5-8; 15-17: The Beast will exercise his authority for 42 months...He will be given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he will be given authority over **EVERY** tribe, people, language and **NATION**. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the Beast--all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the **LAMB**... He {The False Prophet} will be given power to give breath to the image {Or statue} of the Beast, so it could speak! and cause all who refuse to worship the image {Or statue} to be killed. He also will force everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one will be able to buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the Beast {Nero Caesar} or the number of his name{666}!!
Matthew 24:3,9,29-31: The disciples asked Jesus, "What will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age?"... Jesus replied "Then you will be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by **ALL NATIONS** because of Me.... Immediately after the distress of those {1260} days {Or 42 months} the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky. At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And He will gather His elect from the 4 winds, from one end of the heavens to the other!" Mark 13:27 adds "From the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens!"
QUOTE FROM ADAM7777: The kingdom of heaven does not come with observation, neither will anyone ever see even one of the days of the Son of Man again {???}
ADAM7777 believes that the 42 month Great Tribulation in Rev 13:5-10, the second coming of Jesus and even the NEW EARTH, THE NEW HEAVENS and the **NEW JERUSALEM** in Rev 21:1-5; and everything in Revelation is just one big symbolic fairy tale which only he can interpret.
During the 42-month Great Tribulation the saints will not be able to buy anything such as food or lodging but God will take care of His saints just like He miraculously gave food and drink to Israel for 40 years in the wilderness.
There are some, like Jim Baker, who was in prison because of his misuse of funds, teach that God's saints should buy 42 months worth of food and guns to kill their enemies to prepare for the coming Great Tribulation.
**BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY**??
Matthew 6:31-34 Jesus says, "So do not worry, saying, 'What shall eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?" For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His Kingdom and His Righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own!"
Matthew 5:38,39;43,44: Jesus commands, " You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth' {In Exodus21:24} But I tell you: Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also... You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor, and hate your enemy'{In Leviticus 19:18} But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven!!"
The 7 trumpet plagues and 7 bowl plagues will only harm unbelievers as shown in Revelation 9:4,20,21 and Revelation 16:2,5,6,9,11. The 6th trumpet plague alone will "kill one third of mankind" or over 2 billion unbelievers as per Rev 9:18-21! God's saints will also not be harmed, just as the Israelites were not harmed by the 10 plagues in Egypt, during the many plagues of God's 2 witnesses during their 1260-day testimony as per Revelation 11:3-6.
Revelation 11:3-6: I will give power to My 2 witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1260 days, clothed in sackcloth... If anyone tries to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies.... These **MEN** have power to shut up the sky so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying, and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want!!
Even though 666 will control the armies and police of **ALL NATIONS** God's saints and 144,000 Jewish evangelists; with the help of God's two witnesses; will be very active and brave.
Matthew 24:13: "This Gospel of the Kingdom {During the 1260-day Tribulation} will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations and then the end will come!"
God's Word has presently been translated to about 2,000 languages and there are about 6,000 languages in the world. and in Revelation 7;9,13-15 we read:
Revelation 7:9,13-14: I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from **EVERY** nation, tribe, people and **LANGUAGE** standing before the throne and in front of the **LAMB**. They were wearing white robes.... then one of the elders asked me, "Those in white robes--who are they and where do they come from?" And he said, "These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the **LAMB**!
Revelation 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the **LAMB** and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!!
Revelation 17:14: They will make war against the **LAMB**, but the **LAMB** will overcome them because He is Lord of lord and King of kings--and with Him will be His **CALLED**, **CHOSEN** and **FAITHFUL** followers!!~
