Is Pope Francis the Antichrist?

Someone in a Facebook post I'm participating in just said "I think Pope Francis is the Antichrist". That's not an uncommon thought, but I believe there more to it. Let me expound...

Let's start with some scripture:

1 John 2:18-19 "Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us."  

The Roman Pontiffs have been held as being the Antichrist since before the Protestant Reformation. A number of Christian communities trying to follow Jesus outside the Roman church were dreadfully persecuted.

The Book of Revelation talks about the Woman That Rides The Beast, and says that the Beast will throw the Woman off and destroy her, per Revelation Chapter 17...

Revelation 17

 1  And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

 2  With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

 3  So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

 4  And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: note

 5  And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. note

 6  And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

 7  And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.

 8  The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

 9  And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.

 10  And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

 11  And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

 12  And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

 13  These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

 14  These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

 15  And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

 16  And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

 17  For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

 18  And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

I have considered we may have already seen this and the cementing of the one world religion, led but the Roman Pontiff. This alliance includes Kenneth Copeland and other American Pentecostals, Kingdom Now adherents, The Lutheran Church in the USA and more; PLUS other religions even extending to Wickans. It is now very advanced because Papa Francis is the first Jesuit Pope, refuting and abandoning much of the church's historical teachings. You may be right that he is antichrist; whether he is the Man Of Sin in Revelation is another thing. 

The Man Of Sin is however of the Beast, not of the Woman. Has Pope Francis effectively hopped from riding the Beast to being its head? I'm not sure I would go that far; I think it's more likely the Man Of Sin will be a descendent of the Pharisees (whom Jesus accused of being Satan's children) or a compatible Merovingian blood line which member families have stated "The gods gave us the right to rule".  I think at the least, we can expect an assault on Christianity from the Merovingian blood line in coming years, probably claiming descendency from the Watchers & original Nephalim Titans in Atlantis, and claiming their bloodline goes through Jesus and Mary Magdalene as popularised by Dan Brown's "The Davinci Code".

Note that in https://watching-the-new-world-take-order.blogspot.com/2021/04/do-you-trust-government-good-overcoming.html I link the destruction of the Woman with the adoption of the Antichrist.

One thing is for sure: If we are "in Christ" and watching, we will know when we see these things.

Quantum Prayers in the Entangled Universe?

Is this guy preaching a similar message to that of the Word Of Faith community? Listen for the first10 minutes, especially around 7 & 8, and tell me what you think.

Is it possible that the Word Of Faith people could be swept into a science based One World Religion because of the similarities?

Women Of Grace - New Age Church / Occult / Vatican?

The Vatican is full of pagan symbols, as is the Roman Catholic Church in general. Thank the Lord he preserved so much of the bible and then gave us more confirmation and insight via the Dead Sea Scrolls and other finds, providing what we have today. Otherwise we really would be left without adequate light.

I've just read an article tying in the occult symbology of St Peters Basilica with not only paganism, but also some political symbols in the USA today. I looked further, and just wanted to share some things.

So, whether you know of the pagan, occult connections in the Vatican, or if you've just read some via this article, here's a wesite that at first glance appeared to me to be  Protestant, but it's actually Catholic. Look deeper again and it's a thin veneer of a 'Christian' front applied over some rather dark roots.
http://www.womenofgrace.com/blog/?p=553. The cited article explains: "According to the website of St. Peter’s Basilica, the obelisk standing in St. Peter’s Square came from Heliopolis, Egypt where it was believed to have been built by the Pharaoh Mencares in 1835 B.C. in honor of the sun. It is hewn from a single block of pink granite and stands 25.31 m high on a base that is 8.25 m wide. It was brought to Rome by Caligula in 37 B.C. and intended to be erected in the Vatican Circus". The article finishes with "The obelisk in St. Peter’s Square may have come from a pagan culture but it has been thoroughly “baptized” and now stands where it does as an expression of the conquering power of the Church".

Beware of smiling apologists for the Vatican or New Age religion. They will try to make this look so reasonable, so inoffensive; but we must look carefully, for their image and words are carefully crafted! The Vatican is showing its dominionist nature more clearly under Pole Francis, and he's ready to integrate not only other denominations, but other faiths too!  The Lucifer Ian's, who have been in the shadows, are getting bolder in their pronouncements, and their recent announcements that "time's up" via a number of symbolic means indicates their leader, the "Ante-Christ" (ante- meaning substitute for, or likeness of) is quite likely waiting in the wings. It's my humble opinion this Jesuit Pope may be the one who, because he seems to work for the Beast, may throw the Woman (see Revelation for context) off it's back. This Looks may be the one who leaves behind the shell of the Roman Catholic Church and elevates himself as leader of the New Age, One World Religion!

The thing about deception is that it's preys on lack of knowledge and understanding. Don't be deceived. Be prepared. Time is genuinely short. When I started writing this BLOG, I wasn't convinced the End Time was upon us. I am however seeing more and more signs that the time is closing in.

Speaking of the timing of things, Yeshua Mashiach (Jesus the Christ) didn't say "No one knows when the Son of Man will return". Those who think that lack context! He said he will "return at the hour no one knows". The Hour No One Knows" is understood very well by Jewish scholars who understand the Ceremonial Law, but Western Christians don't generally dig deep enough into Hebrew / Jewish history and culture and its illumination on The Law (Pentateuch) to understand properly. The Time No One Knows refers to the new moon, which starts the new month. The calendar at the time the Law was given to Israel by Jehovah was a lunar agrarian calendar. This calendar was no longer used when the Jews went into Babylonian captivity because they simply couldn't see the new moon at Jerusalem! They knew the time was coming. They understood the signs (phases of the moon). The just didn't know the exact day. But they did know the time within a day or so, and we should have similar understanding of the times because of the signs we see fulfilled from biblical prophecy.

It's time to read your bible guys. Not the NIV, Good News, Living Bible or other corrupted or abbreviated firm, but a good solid version like the New King James, the English Standard Version (ESV) or the International Standard Version (ISV). It's also time to use a King James version so you can look up words in the Vine's Bible Dictionary and the Strongs Exhaustive Concordance. Maybe then progress to an 'interlinear' which shows the root text next to the English, enabling you to do more research and analysis. My advice is get yourself a bible from the Sword project. The Windows one used to be named e-Sword. The Android version is 'My Sword'. You'll be able to download different bible versions, dictionaries, concordances and commentaries.

Peres: "We need a U.N. of Religions"

I missed seeing this when it came out, but my research has caught it now, and it's important. Simon Peres is an 'elder statesman' in the Middle East and had proposed a 'United Nations of Religions', stating the "United Nations has had its day".

From the article...

“Now, given the fact that the United Nations has had its day, what is needed is an Organisation of United Religions, a U.N. of religions. It would be the best way to combat these terrorists who kill in the name of faith because the majority of people are not like them …,” he said.

Read the entire article at http://blogs.reuters.com/faithworld/2014/09/05/shimon-peres-floats-idea-of-u-n-style-united-religions-with-pope-francis/.

Why is this such an important event?

1. It comes from the Middle East
2. It comes from a powerful Jew and suggests religious Israel, which has a very strong religious identify, should join forces with Islam, Christianity and other world religions in order to bring peace.
3. It is suggestive of the Vatican playing a larger role, with the Roman Pope heading the peak body.

Colossal Progress
What's not generally known at this juncture is that there has been much dialog between religious figures and authorities regarding the need for a one world religion, and there has been a colossal amount of progress in forming this religion. Almost all the large protestant and pentecostal church denominations in the USA have now recognized the Roman Pope as their earthly head. The main Jewish council (the Sanhedrin) has invited the Roman Pope to conduct mass in holy sites in Israel with the Sanhedrin, and this has now happened a number of times. The Roman Pope in Vatican II stated the "Moslems are of our fold" (approximate wording) and at this stage the Pope is working towards cementing relationship with Islam.

Vatican Involvement
Lastly, the Vatican was very involved in setting up the most recent two state solution of Israel and Palestine. My research had always led me to believe the Rothschilds and Illuminati were the most significant party involved, but it seems the Vatican s intimately involved. Look further, and we find out the Vatican had enormous land holdings in Israel. Add to that the Roman Pope assisting the Palestinians with recognition as a state and adding his skills and influence to resolve problems around the Temple Mount ; but at the price of land ownership by the Vatican and full access to the Temple Mount.

Then of course, we need to add the recent dialog with the patriarch of the Eastern / Russian Orthodox Church.

So it very much seems the course is set, and much progress has been made. This goes hand in hand with the article I just published, although I drafted this before.

Move over United Nations, the World Parliament is here (see the article), and it will likely work hand in hand with the 'United Nations of Religions' now being formed.

And it almost sounds so reasonable!
