Chapter
20
Before
I conclude this book, I would like to say that I love Catholics.
In fact, most of my family are Roman Catholic. My message is not,
therefore, an attack on Catholic people, but an unmasking of the
Roman Catholic system as antichrist. There are many people connected
with this religious denomination that are indeed true Christians.
It is not my intention, in any way, to judge the hearts of these
individuals, but to expose the system in which they worship, especially
at a time in which it seeks to impose its Babylonian system worldwide
in a New World Order. At such a time as this, the following Scripture
applies: “For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered
her iniquities.” (Rev. 18: 5).
Many
times my own parents have asked me the question: “Why must you write
about another person’s beliefs; why knock their church?” Believe
me, friends, I take no pleasure in exposing the sins of Babylon,
but consider it a mandate from God, since Antichrist has attempted
to usurp His throne and authority, and the multitudes that follow
it will be lost as a result. Others will say, “This is not love,
and you profess to be a Christian!” Always remember the following:
“True love seeks first the honor of God and the salvation of souls.
Those who have this love will not evade the truth to save themselves
from the unpleasant results of plain speaking. When souls are in
peril, God’s ministers will not consider self, but will speak the
word given to speak, refusing to excuse or palliate evil.” (Prophets
and Kings, pp. 141, 142). On the battlefield of Good vs. Evil, Right
vs. Wrong, and Truth vs. Error, with eternal destiny at stake, does
anyone dare to claim immunity from critical examination of false
beliefs simply because they are part of a religion? After all, this
is at the very heart of what “the great controversy between Christ
and Satan” is all about!
Friends,
the war between Christ and Satan is ages old. Revelation 12: 7 says:
“There was war in heaven: Michael [Christ— see Jude 9, I Thess.
4: 16, and John 5: 26- 29] and His angels fought against the dragon;
and the dragon fought and his angels.” Thus, the great controversy
between good and evil, which had its beginning in Heaven when Satan
was the beautiful cherub, Lucifer, has continued on this earth since
the time of Adam and Eve. Satan will use any medium necessary, not
excluding religious or political organizations, or even a false
apparition of the Virgin Mary in his efforts to destroy God’s people.
Just as the master deceiver used the serpent, he has used Pharaoh
of Egypt, Nebucchadnezzer of Babylon, Herod of Rome, certain kings
of Israel, and the Scribes and the Pharisees. And today he is using
the Roman papacy to further accomplish his purposes, which will
reach their climax in the near future. Since Roman Catholicism has
intoxicated nearly every religious organization with her false doctrines,
as well as the kings and the inhabitants of the earth, Satan is
ready to strike at any moment, and for the last time.
According
to Bible prophecies and the marshaling of events all about us that
are obviously related to the fulfillment of those prophecies, we
are now standing but a short distance from the full- blown fulfillment
of the “mark of the beast” vs. “the seal of God” issue portrayed
so graphically in Revelation 13 and 14. The New World Order and
its One World Religion (which will demand the worship of Sunday
by every human being on this planet) is ready to be implemented.
And is God ready for the crisis? Absolutely! And His answer is contained
in Revelation 14: 6- 12— the Three Angels’ Messages! “And I saw
another angel fly in the midst of heaven [the urgency with which
this vital message must be given], having the everlasting gospel
[the one and only gospel of the Holy Scriptures] to preach [the
message must be heard] unto them that dwell on the earth, and to
every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a
loud voice [it is a life- or- death message], fear God [get your
lives in harmony with His commandments], and give glory to Him [reflect
His character or law in your life]; for the hour of His judgment
is [not ‘will’] come [the hour of final accountability is here];
and worship Him [not the beast (Rome) or its image (apostate Protestantism)
when Sunday observance is enforced by law] that made [for He is
the Creator] heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of
water [the words contained in the fourth commandment— the Sabbath
; in other words, “Observe My holy day ”]. And there followed another
angel [the message is important enough to command special attention],
saying, Babylon [Protestant Churches have begun to reject the 1st
Angel’s message for Babylonish traditions], is fallen, that great
city, because she has made all nations [the whole world] drink of
the wine [they have swallowed, among others, her false doctrines
of Sunday sacredness and the immortality of the soul] of the wrath
of her fornication [spiritual adultery]. And the third angel followed
them [backing up the first two angels’ messages with the most terrible
warning in the Bible], saying with a loud voice [the message is
most urgent], If any man worship the beast or his image, and receive
his mark [Sunday— a commandment of man] in his forehead [he believes
it], or in his hand [he meekly goes along with it], The same shall
drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without
mixture into the cup of His indignation; and he shall be tormented
with fire and brimstone [Eternal Fire will consume the wicked and
is eternal in its effects (see Malachi 4: 1, 3; Jude 7)] in the
presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And
the smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and ever: [In the
Greek, aion, an indefinite period of time. It could be anything
from a moment to an extensive period of time, depending on the ingredients
of what is being discussed. The wicked are punished according to
their works. Obviously, their lengths of punishment will vary. Satan
will suffer longest. But, all the wicked will be entirely consumed.
(See Rev. 20: 12- 14; II Thess. 1: 8, 9; and again Mal. 4: 1, 3)]…
who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the
mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they
that keep the commandments of God [not Rome], and the faith of Jesus
[for it is only by faith in Christ and through His grace that we
can obey His commandments].”
The
most solemn message in the whole of Scripture is the Three Angels’
Messages, for it is the last warning to the world before probation
closes once and for all! It really is not that difficult to understand
the prophecies of Revelation when you learn what the signs and symbols
mean. I remember the first time I read the Three Angels’ Messages
after receiving wisdom and understanding from God. Not only did
I fall in love with them, I wanted to share them with the whole
world; and I pray you will, too, for it is a message of salvation!
Share this book with whomever you can. Send it to your friends and
family, maybe to a whole city! But whatever you do, do something
now! And God will reward you greatly. The promise is “Blessed is
he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy,
and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is
at hand.” (Rev 1: 3). May the grace of Almighty God be with you,
brothers and sisters, and, remember, you have nothing to fear, for
the Lord of hosts and His truth will triumph in the end.
“And
after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven [a
fourth angel joins with the Three Angels of Rev. 14: 6- 12 and gives
added power to the message], having great power; and the earth was
lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice,
saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the
habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage
of every unclean and hateful bird . For all nations have drunk of
the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth
have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth
are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. [Is God
wrong here to speak so negatively of a worldwide ‘religious’ combine
which rejects Heaven’s final warning of mercy— the Three Angels’
Messages? Which enforces life- threatening penalties against those
who faithfully bear God’s last warning appeals under the mighty
power of the Holy Spirit? and which willingly submits itself to
‘the power of darkness’ in the form of spiritualism? Because its
work bears the label ‘religion, ’ does it legally merit immunity
from exposure of its falsity by the truth of God’s Word? Or are
the laws now being stealthily set in place forbidding ‘attacks’
on other religious beliefs actually selfserving devices of the ‘father
of lies’ to prevent the disclosure of his artful deceptions and
deadly masquerades to lead multitudes to perdition?] And I heard
another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people ,
that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of
her plagues. [Is it not heartwarming that God’s last endeavor in
the ‘great controversy’ between Christ and Satan before probation
ends once and forever for fallen mankind is to rescue His true followers
from doomed Babylon before the Seven Last Plagues begin! God truly
cares for His Own. Not a single honest soul will be lost! Praise
God! From first to last, the ‘great controversy’ is primarily a
spiritual battle!] For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God
hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded
you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup
which she hath filled fill to her double. How much she hath glorified
herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give
her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen [for all the world
was her seat, but soon the wicked of this world will turn on her
because they have been the victims of her deceptions], and am no
widow, and shall see no sorrow.
Therefore
shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine;
and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord
God who judgeth her.” (Revelation 18: 1- 8)!
