PROPHETIC RISE
of the
ROMAN CHURCH

 

“Now the Holy Spirit
expressly says that
in latter times some
(churches and church leaders)
will depart from the faith”
(1 Timothy 4:1)

 

Before we get started, please remember this Bible Prophecy site is “Non-Denominational” and simply uses God’s Word as found in the Bible as the standard.

 

As a Bible Prophecy site we view News Headlines through the lens of Bible Prophecy because God will not fulfill prophecies in secret, but so the whole World can see (and be warned).

 

We feel the political upheaval we’ve seen recently in America (and Israel) is prophetically significant.

 

Political events and intrigues are important because of Bible Prophecies concerning the coming Antichrist.  This man will rise out of world politics and will become very popular.  We are told he will be empowered by Satan and will quickly rise and rule over the whole World.  Many feel this coming world leader is probably alive today.

 

FIRST, a little Bible Prophecy background …

 

We are warned the coming Antichrist will have a RELIGIOUS partner.

The Bible warns of a “Second Beast”…

“Then I saw another beast
coming up out of the Earth,
and he had two horns like a lamb
and spoke like a dragon.
And he exercises all the authority of the
first beast (the Antichrist) in his presence,
and causes the Earth and those who dwell in it
to worship the first beast (Antichrist),
whose deadly (head) wound was healed.”
(Revelation 13:11-12)

 

A One-World Religious System Will Soon Rise

The Antichrist will not be alone. Another man, also empowered by Satan, will rule alongside the Antichrist. This powerful and deadly religious leader or “beast” (as God sees him) will rise to world power with the Antichrist (a coming World Leader).

 

In this prophecy God reveals some important information and details concerning this religious man of power …

“Two horns like a lamb,” tells us he will emerge in great power with Christian credentials or doctrine, but “spoke like a dragon” tells us he will be controlled and directed by Satan.

This person, along with the religious system he will lead, is also referred to in the book of Revelation as “The Woman Who Rides the Beast.”

 

We are warned this coming “One-World” Religious System will rise out of Rome (City of seven hills) …

“This calls for a mind with wisdom.
The seven heads are seven hills
on which the woman (who rides the Beast) sits.”
(Revelation 17:9)

 

From Wikipedia …

“The title City of Seven Hills usually refers to Rome, which was literally founded on seven hills.”

 

This coming ecumenical ‘One-World’ Religious System will one day imprison, torture, and execute millions of Bible-believing Christians …

 

An interesting Note: 

If you translate the Greek word “Anti-Christ” directly into Latin it would be “Vicar of Christ.” (Vicaris)

Hmmmm … Who on Earth is now called by that Title?

 

 

In the Bible Prophecy below, the ten horns represent leaders of 10 nations which were once part of the ancient Roman Empire, and we are told the “11th” horn will be the coming Antichrist who will rise from a nation which would come AFTER the other 10 nations …

 

“The ten horns are ten kings
who shall arise from (out of)
this kingdom (the Roman Empire).
And another shall rise after them;  (the 11th and “little” horn)
He (the Antichrist)
shall be different from the first ones,
and shall subdue three kings …” (The end begins)
(Daniel 7:24)

 

Something to consider …

It is also interesting to note that the “11th horn” is sometimes called the “little horn” (nation). 

Vatican City is the smallest nation on Earth (only 109 acres in total size) with a population of only around 800 people, and it sits in Rome. 

Yet, it rules over almost a Billion people and receives Presidents, Prime Ministers, Kings, and Ambassadors from every nation (many of whom bow or kiss the hand of the Roman Pope).

Also, the prophecy above warns, “And another (the 11th horn) shall rise AFTER them.“

Even though most of the nations from the ancient Roman Empire have been around for many, many, many years … Vatican City did not become a nation until 1929 when the Roman Pope and the fascist Dictator of Italy (Mussolini) struck a deal. 

 

The time draws near ….

 

The “Roman Church” is synonymous with the “Holy Roman Empire.”

 

In more recent times the German “Kaiser” (Caesar) felt he would bring in the Holy Roman Empire through World War 1.

 

Later, when Hitler was lifted into power he felt he had been given the power to bring in the “Third Reich” (Reich means “Holy Roman Empire”) and if you do your homework you will find he and the Nazi party were fully backed and supported by the Roman Church and their treacherous methods were adopted directly from the methods the Roman Jesuits had perfected over many, many years starting with the early Inquisitions.

 

Each time, (WWI and WWII) the United States of America (then a Protestant-based nation) stepped in to restrain and thwart their victory.

 

HOWEVER . . .

However, for the Bible’s prophetic warning concerning the rise of the Roman Church and the coming Holy Roman Empire (which one historian noted was never “Holy” nor “Roman”), to be complete, the United States of America (as a Protestant nation with its Constitutional and individual freedoms and rights which the Roman Church/Pope can never allow) will have to be “neutralized” … and WILL one day fall under the dark shadow of the Roman Pope’s power.

 

For the Bible clearly warns sometime just before the coming Apocalypse ALL nations (with the exception of Israel) will fall under the Rule of an Unholy Roman Empire which will be controlled by a powerful world leader (the Antichrist) who will be empowered by a religious system (Revelation 17 the “Woman who rides the Beast”) based out of Rome.

 

To see our future, let’s take a moment to look into the past …

 

Historically, let’s look back at just one of the tactics the Roman Church (and Pope) devised to gain control over the United States of America, who as of January 19, 2021 was the last remaining stumbling block to the prophetic rise of the Unholy Roman Empire.

 

Remember, the Socialist slogan for over the past 60 years has been, “USE Democracy to DESTROY Democracy!” (Socialism and Catholicism are inseparable).

 

So, let’s first read an excerpt from a book written over 120 years ago (in 1897) …

 

“It is clear that Rome is rapidly getting control of all the sources of power in the United States, both in civil and military affairs; and that she is doing so in pursuance of a well considered and wisely laid plan, and for the very purpose of subverting our government. Let us go back a little and review the menus suggested and considered for bringing the United States under the control of the Roman Papacy.

Father Chiniquy (a Roman Catholic Priest), in his book, “Fifty Years in the Church of Rome” (written in 1886), gives an extended and minute account of the plans that were discussed by bishops and priests for the attainment of political control of the United States, and for the over-throw of our government.

About fifty years ago (around 1847) a council of bishops and priests was assembled in Buffalo, N. Y., for the purpose of determining this question.

The Bishop of Chicago thought to accomplish the desired end by colonizing emigrants from Canada, France, and Belgium in such numbers in the valley of the Mississippi, as would give to the Roman Catholic Church political control of the States of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri and Iowa.

It was thought that with the fast hold the church had gained in the Southern States, as also in Michigan and Wisconsin, that it would thus be able to hold a cordon of States extending from Florida along the Gulf of Mexico, and up the Mississippi, to our Northern limits, and thus, in time, give it complete political control of the United States.

Father Chiniquy had been engaged in this scheme by the Bishop of Chicago and had entered upon the work as an emigration agent, with enthusiasm, and was meeting with encouraging success. This plan of operations was being advocated earnestly by De Prey Magee, the editor, at that time, of the Freeman’s Journal. Promising as it appeared to its advocates, it was repudiated by a large majority of the members of the Buffalo Conference.

They argued that by this plan their forces would be scattered, and the power of the church dissipated, and that the true policy of the church for getting political control of the country (America), was to concentrate its forces in the cities and larger towns, and fill these up, as rapidly as possible, with their foreign emigrants.

It was argued that in this way the Roman Catholics vote could be so wielded, under the direction of the bishops and priests, as to be made a balance of power vote between the two political parties, and so, necessary to the success of either; and being so, it could make its own terms with the political party leaders, and thus get the control of the municipal offices in a very short time; and that it would, in a few years, become a majority vote, when it would have complete control in municipal governments; and ultimately in State politics. 

This plan had been carefully thought out and matured by the Jesuits, and its wisdom was made so apparent by their arguments in this conference that the plan of the Bishop of Chicago and his adherents received a very emphatic condemnation by the Buffalo Conference, and the wise plan of the Jesuits was adopted, and at once entered upon, as the true policy of the church for getting political control of our government.

The wisdom of this plan is seen in its results. A half a century has elapsed since its adoption.

The work of bringing Roman Catholic emigrants into our country and colonizing them in our cities, has been sedulously pursued from that day to this; and the results predicted by the most sanguine of its advocates have been realized. Quietly, stealthily, steadfastly, has this plan been pursued, under the direction of the most astute political managers that the world has ever seen, until the realization of its purpose seems to be almost within their grasp. And what was its avowed purpose? Political control of our country was its immediate purpose; but this control was to be used for the overthrow of our government.” 

(Excerpted from “Rome’s Responsibility for the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln” by Thomas Harris (https://archive.org/details/romesresponsibil00harr/page/n7/mode/2up)

 

Now, some simple facts to consider from both a Political and Prophetic perspective …

 

The US Supreme Court is now controlled by Roman Catholics. 

There has been no “Protestant” Justice sitting on the Supreme Court since 2010 (historically they were almost all Protestants). 

As a note, the term “Protestant” was given to those Christian men, women, and children who were arrested, imprisoned, tortured, and violently put to death for their opposition and “protesting” against the Roman Church (and Popes) for adding, teaching, and enforcing unbiblical doctrines and rules that were/are not found in the Bible.  At that time, the Popes and Roman Catholic church also ruled it was illegal and punishable by death for a “common” person to even own a Bible for personal study.

Yet, Roman Catholics only comprise around 22% of the population of the United States, so it’s reasonable to say Protestants should have a voice on our Supreme Court.  

The Speaker of our House of Representatives (Pelosi) is also Roman Catholic, and now our new incoming President (Biden) is also a Roman Catholic.

As Roman Catholics they are commanded to place their obedience to a Roman “Pope’s” directives over their obedience to our Rule of Law as embodied in the Constitution of the United States (which they were appointed to protect and uphold). 

This group (who are all members of the Roman church) now holds the political “high-ground” of power over our three branches of Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial).  These who now sit in power are mandated by the Roman Church to place their loyalties and obedience to the Pope who sits in Rome.

The current Roman Pope (and the current Jesuit “General” who is called the “Black Pope”) are both practicing “Socialists” which is causing some turmoil among those Catholics around the World who still believe in liberty, freedom, the Bible, and God’s Word.

Several of our more recent Supreme Court Justices were presented as “conservatives” during their approval process.  However, don’t listen to what they ‘say’ but watch what they ‘do’. 

Justice Roberts is an excellent example of unexpected rulings which reflect submission to the Pope’s opinions over our Constitution.

Also, the current Supreme Court’s willingness (or unwillingness) to hear these many well-documented Election Vote Challenges will soon reflect their true loyalties.  They will also change the course (and the future) of the United States of America (and the whole World).

No matter how documented, powerful, or massive the evidence of illegal vote fraud might be, you will NOT see this Roman Catholic controlled Supreme Court rule in such a way that would favor a non-Catholic president over a Roman Catholic president.

Do your homework … Roman Catholic Jesuits are very effective in quietly enforcing Roman Catholic Doctrine upon those Catholics in power.

 

Roman Church vs. America

Many forget the US Constitution and Bill of Rights were also written to protect American citizens from the Roman Papal (Jesuit) rulership that had decimated Protestant Christians living in the Roman Church controlled states in Europe (and South America).  Millions upon millions of Protestants (and other non-Catholics) were slaughtered by the Jesuits under the inhuman atrocities of the “Inquisitions” and “Counter-Reformation.”  The Roman Popes have never removed those laws they used to justify and enforce their terrible inquisitions.

Concerning the United States, from the very beginning the Roman Church and the Jesuits (behind their feigned friendship with many of our leaders) have been sworn enemies of America because of the liberty and freedoms provided through the (Protestant-based) American Republic and its Constitutional Rule of Law which was designed to protect the citizens of the United States from the ruthless and bloody governing methods used against those people living in bondage under the dictatorial, iron-fisted Rule of Rome in Europe.  The Church of Rome could not (and cannot) allow a “Protestant” nation to ever prosper, especially one that became a beacon of liberty and freedom.

Since our Judicial, Legislative, and Executive Branches are ALL now under the Roman church-mandated authority of the Pope (and the Jesuit “General”), who, as staunch Marxist-Socialists, view the United States of America as the last obstacle standing against Roman control over all the Americas (Canada’s new Prime Minister Trudeau also comes from a staunch Roman Church background), we may possibly soon see a coordinated and well-planned attack against our liberty, freedoms, and Constitutional Rule of Law.

It should also be noted the Roman Church has close ties to Islam (and with most Socialist dictators), but, historically has shown enmity toward the Jews and the nation Israel.

So, the same Bible-Believing Protestant Christians who God used to bring forth a nation which He blessed with such liberty, freedoms, and “the pursuit of happiness,” and who fought and died to bring slaves their freedom from the Roman Church backed Confederacy (read your history books), along with helping to provide the children of Israel with a safe harbor for over 200 years, could soon become the target (and the prey) for a thinly veiled Roman Church and Jesuit led American Inquisition under the guise of “Socialism.”

Russia + China + Islam + Church of Rome + Democrat Party certainly make a cunning and powerful alliance.   

 

This scenario does not contradict Bible Prophecy.  

 

 

Another warning from the Past …

 

Abraham Lincoln warned of the JESUIT influence over the Civil War:

“This war (the Civil War) would never have been possible without the sinister influence of the Jesuits. We owe it to popery (the Pope) that we now see our land reddened with the blood of her noblest sons. Though there were great differences of opinion between the South and the North on the question of slavery, neither Jeff Davis nor anyone of the leading men of the Confederacy would have dared to attack the North, had they not relied on the promises of the Jesuits, that, under the mask of Democracy, the money and the arms of the Roman Catholic, even the arms of France were at their disposal, if they would attack us. I pity the priests, the bishops and monks of Rome in the United States, when the people realize that they are, in great part, responsible for the tears and the blood shed in this war. I conceal what I know, on that subject, from the knowledge of the nation; for if the people knew the whole truth, this war would turn into a religious war, and it would at once, take a tenfold more savage and bloody character. It would become merciless as all religious wars are. It would become a war of extermination on both sides. The Protestants of both the North and the South would surely unite to exterminate the priests and the Jesuits, if they could hear what Professor Morse has said to me of the plots made in the very city of Rome to destroy this Republic, and if they could learn how the priests, the nuns, and the monks, which daily land on our shores, under the pretext of preaching their religion, instructing the people in their schools, taking care of the sick in the hospitals, are nothing else but the emissaries of the Pope, of Napoleon, and the other despots of Europe, to undermine our institutions, alienate the hearts of our people from our constitution, and our laws, destroy our schools, and prepare a reign of anarchy here as they have done in Ireland, in Mexico, in Spain, and wherever there are any people who want to be free.” – President Abraham Lincoln

 

Then President Lincoln went on to say:

“Is it not an absurdity to give to a man a thing which he is sworn to hate, curse, and destroy? And does not the Church of Rome hate, curse and destroy liberty of conscience whenever she can do it safely? I am for liberty of conscience in its noblest, broadest, highest sense. But I cannot give liberty of conscience to the Pope and to his followers, the Papists, so long as they tell me, through all their councils, theologians, and canon laws, that their conscience orders them to burn my wife, strangle my children, and cut my throat when they find their opportunity! This does not seem to be understood by the people today. But sooner or later, the light of common sense will make it clear to everyone that no liberty of conscience can be granted to men who are sworn to obey a Pope, who pretends to have the right to put to death those who differ from him in religion.”

 

 

The Time Draws Near …

Our nation and our World are now moving quickly into that time which the Bible warns will be the most perilous (and deadly) time in the History of all Mankind …  

 

“The Great Day of the LORD is near,
near and hastening fast;
The sound of the Day of the LORD is bitter;
the mighty man cries aloud there.
A day of wrath is that Day,
A day of distress and anguish,
A day of ruin and devastation,
A day of darkness and gloom,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,
A day of trumpet blast and battle cry
against the fortified cities
and against the lofty battlements.
I (GOD) will bring distress on Mankind,
so that they shall walk like the blind,
because they have sinned against the LORD;
their blood shall be poured out like dust,
and their flesh like dung.
Neither their silver nor their gold
shall be able to deliver them on
the Day of the Wrath of the LORD.
In the fire of His jealousy,
ALL the Earth shall be consumed;
For a full and sudden end
He will make of ALL the inhabitants of the Earth.”
(Zephaniah 1:14-18)

 

Jesus Christ warns . . .

“For then there will be Great Tribulation,
such as has not been
since the beginning of the world until this time,
no, nor ever shall be.
And unless those days were shortened,
no human being (flesh) would be saved”
(Matthew 24:21-22)

 

Jesus warns that never in the history of Mankind has there ever been anything as terrible on Earth as the coming Great Tribulation (which technically is the second half, or the last 3 1/2 years of the 7-year Apocalypse), for we are told only a very small remnant of the world will survive.

 

Our Blessed Hope

Yet, those who will decide to take the Bible (and all of its prophetic warnings) seriously beforehand will be relieved (and happy) to learn that God has prepared a miraculous ESCAPE for all those living on Earth at that time.  This “escape” will include all who will be found enduring in a sincere and unshakable faith in God’s Word (Jesus Christ … Yeshua Ha’Mashiach in Hebrew) and in His promises.

 

This loving path of escape is sometimes called “The Rapture”… and our “Blessed Hope.”

 

“WATCH therefore,
and pray ALWAYS
that you may be
counted worthy to ESCAPE
all these things
that WILL come to pass.”
(Luke 21:36)  (It’s through sincere faith in His worthiness, not ours)
