A Women Rides The Beast:

How the Church of Rome, Protestants, Hindus, and All the World’s Religions Are Becoming One

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come (the Second Coming) unless the

falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed , the son of perdition,

Revelation 17:3-4:

And I saw a women sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and

ten horns. The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and

pearls having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.

Religious Symbols of the European UnionBy Alan Franklin:

Another demonic biblical symbol that is being used in conjunction with the European Union is the one from

Revelation 17 where a “great harlot” is depicted riding a beast. For some strange and unknown reason this

symbol is being used to repre sent the EU! For example, when Britain issued a stamp to commemorate the first

European Parliament elections in 1979, the picture on the stamp depicted a woman riding a

beast. According to the Rev. Dr. Ian Paisley, a Northern Ireland Protestant minister and member of the

European Parliament, the woman on a beast is now the official picture of the EU. He points out that the multi-

million dollar new parliament building in Brussels, Belgium, contains a dome with a colossal painting,

three times life size, of a woman riding a beast.In Strasbourg, France, the rival parliamentary building (the one with the Tower of Babel) features a mural of a

naked woman riding a beast. Likewise, the new Brussels headquarters of the Council of Europe

contains a bronze statue of a woman riding a beast, and the beast is depicted riding on waves, just as in

Revelation 17.

The Telegraph, February 11, 2009

The Vatican claims Darwin's theory of evolution is compatible with Christianity

The Vatican has admitted that Charles Darwin's theory of evolution should not have been dismissed and claimed it is compatible with the Christian view of

Creation.

Two Tracks to Globalism Merge:

Spiritual and Political

Former U.N. Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold noted that there are:

two Popes on this planet, a spiritual Pope in Rome and a civilian Pope in New York, namely,

the Secretary-General of the UN.

The Church of Rome, like many protestant churches, is committed to the promotion of ecumenicalism through which all religions of the world can work together to solve world

problems

The Second Vatican Council also known as The Vatican II opened October 11, 1962 and closed December 8,

1965. It was the twenty-first Ecumenicalism Council of the Catholic Church.

In Previews of the New Papacy Catholic Ellyn Miller Writes:

After the Ecumenical Council of Vatican II, the greatest work of destruction ever undertaken

was initiated inside the Catholic Church.

Vatican II, Opened on October 11, 1962 at St. Peter’s Basilica in

Rome:

This conference furthered the ecumenical movement and was resided over by Pope John

XXIII.

In Geneva, Switzerland, Addressing the World Council of Churches,

John Paul II Declared:

“From the beginning of my ministry as bishop of Rome, I have insisted that the engagement of

the Catholic Church in the ecumenical movement is irreversible.”

Mother Teresa Declared:

If in coming face to face with God we accept Him in our lives, then we . . . become a better Hindu, a better Muslim, a better Catholic, a better whatever we

are . . . What God is in your mind you must accept.

Source: Desmond Doig, Mother Teresa: Her People and Her Work (Harper & Row, 1976) (p. 156)

In 1985, the Pope Said:

Christians and Moslems, we meet one another in faith in the one God. . .[and] strive to put

into practice . . .the teaching of our respective holy books.

According to M. Basil Pennington, a Prominent Catholic Priest, the Council

Urged:

“all Christians . . . to act positively to preserve and even promote all that is good in other religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, and other

world religions.”

Msgr. Wojtyla [who became Pope John Paul II] Declared:

Nostalgia for the unity of Christians makes common cause with that of unity for the

whole human race … This gives rise to the attitude of the Church towards the other

religions, which is based on the recognition of their spiritual values, humans and Christians

together, reaching out to such religions as Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism. . .

The Los Angeles Times February 5, 1993 Reported That During his 1993 Tour

of Africa the Pope:

…sought common ground with believers in voodoo . . . suggesting that they would not betray their traditional faith by converting to Christianity.

Pope Paul VI Said:

The Church has this exhortation for her sons and daughters: prudently and lovingly, through dialogue

and collaboration with the followers of other religions, and in witness of Christian faith and life, acknowledge, preserve and promote the spiritual and moral goods found among these peoples . . .

source: Nostra Aetate 2, Para. 6

John Paul II at the Universities of Calcutta and New Delhi in his 1986 Visit to

India Told Hindu Audiences:

“India’s mission. . . is crucial, because of her intuition of the spiritual nature of man. Indeed, India’s greatest contribution to the world can be to offer it a spiritual

vision of man. And the world does well to attend willingly to this ancient wisdom and in it to find

enrichment for human living.”

Three Catholic priests state in their book, Finding Grace at the Center:

“We should not hesitate to take the fruit of the age-old Wisdom of the East and “capture” it for

Christ . . .Many Christians who take their prayer life seriously have been greatly helped by Yoga, Zen, TM

and similar practices . . .”

The Church of Rome, like many protestant churches, is committed to the promotion of

social justice, communitarianism, sustainable development and global governance

In June 2009, Pope Benedict XVI issued a 30,000-word encyclical calling for:

Reform of the United Nations so there could be “true world political authority”

a global tax

Global redistribution of wealth from rich countries to poor countries

a worldwide redistribution of energy resources, so that countries lacking those resources can

have access to them.

In June of 2009 in His 30,000

Word Encyclical Pope Benedict XVI Declared:

the current crisis … presents us with choices that cannot be postponed concerning nothing

less than the destiny of man…The different aspects of the crisis, its solutions, and any new

development that the future may bring, are

increasingly interconnected, they imply one another, they require new efforts of holistic

understanding and a new humanistic synthesis…The current crisis obliges us to

replan our journey, to set ourselves new rules and to discover new forms of commitment, to

build on positive experiences and to reject negative ones.

In June of 2009 in His 30,000 Word Encyclical Pope Benedict XVI Declared:

To manage the global economy … to bring about

integral and timely disarmament, food security and peace; to guarantee the protection of the environment and to regulate migration: for all this, there is urgent

need of a true world political authority.

The crisis thus becomes an opportunity for discernment, in which to shape a new vision for

the future….Remarkable convergences and possible solutions will then come to light.

In June of 2009 in His 30,000 Word Encyclical Pope Benedict XVI Declared:

Globalization is a multifaceted and complex phenomenon which must be grasped in the diversity and unity of all its different dimensions, including the

theological dimension.

In this way it will be possible to experience and to steer the globalization of humanity in relational terms, in terms of communion and

the sharing of goods.

In June of 2009 in His 30,000 Word Encyclical Pope Benedict XVI Declared:

Practicing charity in truth helps people to understand that adhering to the values of

Christianity is not merely useful but essential for building a good society and for true integral

human development…

In June of 2009 in His 30,000 Word Encyclical Pope Benedict XVI Declared:

The more we strive to secure a common good

corresponding to the real needs of ourneighbors, the more effectively we love them.

The Church of Rome, like many protestant churches, is committed to the promotion of

New Age Pagan practices and beliefs

The Externals of the Catholic Church, Her Government, Ceremonies, Festivals, Sacramentals

and Devotions, by John F. Sullivan p 156.

It is interesting to note how often our Church has availed herself of practices which were in common use among

pagans…Thus it is true, in a certain sense, that some Catholic rites and ceremonies are a reproduction of those of pagan

creeds….

In Catholic Catechism #460 the Church of Rome has declared:

The Word became flesh to make us "partakers of the divine nature": "For this is why the Word became man, and the Son of

God became the Son of man: so that man, by entering into communion with the Word and thus receiving divine sonship,

might become a son of God." "For the Son of God became man so that we might become God." "The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature,

so that he, made man, might make men gods

According to Spirituality of the Catholic Educator, (April 1990), New Jersey/New York area Catholic

schools utilize a program titled Energetics for Living: A Curriculum Enhancement Program for Peace

Education, developed by Sisters Vergilla Jim, and Claire Langie, Its purpose is:

“nothing less than the transformation of the child from within” through contact with the

creative “energy” found “at the very center of

their being” leading to an experience of “the interconnectedness and interdependency of all

living creatures. . .”

… Contact with the child’s “sacred center” is effected through “the regular practice of

meditation, visualization, relaxation, breathing, etc.” “They have adapted the Hindu greeting “Namaste,” which means “The God in me greets the God in you!” Once the student sees that he and everything is God,

“who would do violence to God or to any of his creatures?” asks Sister Loretta Carey, R.D.C. of

Fordham University.”

Sister Mary L. O’Hara, C.S.J., professor of philosophy at the College of Saint Mary,

Omaha, specializes in promoting Buddhist and Hindu techniques for enhancing education in

Catholic schools.

The Church of Rome, ,like many protestant churches, is committed to the promotion of

spiritual evolution

Catholic theologian Teilbard de Chardin said,:

“The fate of mankind, as well as of religion, depends upon the emergence of a new faith

in the future.”

The Church of Rome, like many protestant churches, Rejects The Authority of The Word of God in Favor of Man’s Opinion

and Experiences

Confessio Romano—Catholica, Articles IV, I, and XXI:

We confess that whatsoever new thing the pope of Rome may have instituted, whether it be in

Scripture, or out of Scripture, is true, divine, and salvific; and, therefore, ought to be regarded as of

higher value by lay people than the precepts of the Living God…

…We confess that the Pope has the power of altering Scriptures, or increasing and diminishing it,

according to his will…We confess that the Holy Scripture is imperfect and a dead letter, until it is

explained by the Supreme Pontiff and permitted by him to be read by lay people.

The Question Box Column, Brooklyn Tablet, Nov. 8, 1958, teaches:

Tradition as a source of Faith would suffice without Scripture.

According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, #82:

…Both Scripture and Tradition must be accepted and honored with equal sentiments

of devotion and reverence.

The Church of Roman, like Many Protestant Churches, is Promoting the

United Nations

On October 4, 1965 Pope Paul VI turned over the Papal Tiara, a symbol of the papacy, to the United Nations and declared

that the United Nations is:

the last, best hope of mankind.

In June of 2009 in His 30,000 Word Encyclical Pope Benedict XVI Declared:

In the face of the unrelenting growth of global

interdependence, there is astrongly felt need, even in the midst of a global recession, for a reform of the United Nations

Organization,

and likewise of economic institutions and international finance, so that the concept of the

family of nations can acquire real teeth.

In New Genesis: Shaping a Global Spirituality, Robert Muller Wrote:

Many religions have special invocations, prayers, hymns and services for the United Nations. The

most important examples are those of the Catholic, the Unitarian-Universalist, the Baptist and the Baha’i

faiths. It is common practice of the Unitarian-Universalists to display the United Nations flag in

their houses of worship.

So does the Holy Family Church, the parish church of the UN” . . . (p. 45)

In his book, New Genesis: Shaping a Global Spirituality, Muller writes:

Pope John Paul II said that we [those at the UN] were the stonecutters and artisans of a

cathedral which we might never see in its finished beauty.

In his book, New Genesis: Shaping a Global Spirituality, Muller wrote:

“…I discovered that for U Thant there was no difference between spirituality, religion and life. Life was for him a constant spirituality. I studied Buddhism to understand him better. We became great friends. He was able to teach me what my Catholic priests

had always told me, but at that time I hadn’t listened.”

In New Genesis: Shaping a Global Spirituality, Robert Muller wrote:

“For the first time in evolution, the human species has assumed a collective responsibility for the success of planet Earth in the universe. . . . Perhaps this will be the new spiritual ideology which will bind the human

race.” (p.37)

In New Genesis: Shaping a Global Spirituality, Robert Muller wrote:

. . . while in the past all religions and philosophies were born within specific local, cultural contexts, today we

are witnessing the birth of a new philosophy, ideology or ethics which originates from a central place of synthesis where all dreams, aspirations,

claims and values of humankind converge. (pp. 46-47)

. . .Post modern men and women need common values, goals, ideals, visions. But the great

question in dispute is: does not all this presuppose a religious faith?. . . What we

need is an ecumenical world order!”

In his book, Most of All They Taught Me Happiness, Muller writes:

I have come to believe firmly today that our future peace, justice, fulfillment, happiness and harmony on this planet will not depend on world government but

on divine or cosmic government, meaning that we must seek and apply the “natural,” “evolutionary,” “divine,” “universal” or “cosmic” laws which must

rule our journey in the cosmos.

Most of these laws can be found in the great religions and prophecies,

and they are being rediscovered slowly but surely in the world organizations. Any

Teilhardian will recognize in this the spiritual transcendence which he announced so

emphatically as the next step in our evolution.

In Robert Muller’s New Genesis: Shaping a Global Spirituality, Muller Writes:

“Peace will be impossible without the taming of fundamentalism through a United Religions that professes faithfulness only to the global spirituality and to the health of this planet.”

From his same book, Muller further states:

“World-wide spiritual ecumenism, expressed in new forms of religious cooperation and

institutions, would probably be closest to the heart of the resurrected Christ.”

Evangelicals and Catholics Working Together For Ecumenicalism

In 1993 Parliament of World Religions was held in Chicago in 1993 and Chuck Colson was

awarded the $1.2 million dollar ecumenical award known as the Templeton Prize for

Progress

On March 29, 1994 Evangelicals and Catholics Signed the Declaration “Evangelicals and

Catholics Together: The Christian mission in the 3rd Millennium

The New York TimesMarch 30, 1994:

They toiled together in the movements against abortion and pornography, and now leading Catholics

and evangelicals are asking their flocks for a remarkable leap of faith: to finally accept each other as Christians. In what's being called a historic declaration,

evangelicals including Pat Robertson and Charles

Colson joined with conservative Roman Catholic leaders today in ... urging Catholics and evangelicals ...

to stop aggressive proselytization of each other's flocks.

John White, president of Geneva College and former president of the National Association of Evangelicals,

said the statement represents a "triumphalistic moment" in American religious life after centuries of

distrust....

1994 Evangelicals and Catholics Together Document Stated in Part:

In the exercise of these public responsibilities there has been in recent years a growing convergence and

cooperation between Evangelicals and Catholics. We thank God for the discovery of one another in contending for a common cause. Much more

important, we thank God for the discovery of one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. Our cooperation as citizens is animated

by our convergence as Christians. We promise one another that we will work to deepen, build upon, and expand this pattern of convergence

and cooperation.

1994 Evangelicals and Catholics Together Document Stated in Part:

Economic freedom, while subject to grave abuse, makes possible the patterns of creativity, cooperation, and accountability that contribute

to the common good.

1994 Evangelicals and Catholics Together Document Stated in Part:

…this is a set of directions oriented to the common good and discussable on the basis of

public reason.

1994 Evangelicals and Catholics Together Document Stated in Part:

…in view of the large number of non- Christians in the world and the enormous challenge of our common

evangelistic task, it is neither theologically legitimate nor a prudent use of resources for one Christian

community to proselytize among active adherents of another Christian community.

1994 Evangelicals and Catholics Together Document Stated in Part:

…The above is a partial list of public responsibilities on which we believe there is a

pattern of convergence and cooperation between Evangelicals and Catholics.

If ethics is to function for the wellbeing of all, it must be indivisible. The undivided world

increasingly needs an undivided ethic. . . .

Alice Bailey Wrote That the New Age Would:

“…rest upon the foundation of a newly interpreted and enlightened Christianity . . .

being universal in nature.”

Robert Muller, Catholic and Former U.N. Assistant Secretary-General

We need a world or cosmic spirituality. ...I hope that religious leaders will get together and define...the

cosmic laws which are common to all their faiths....They should tell the politicians what the cosmic

laws are, what God, or the gods, or the cosmos are expecting from humans....We must also hope that the

Pope will

come before the year 2000 to the United Nations, speak for all the religions and

spiritualities on this planet and give the world the religious view of how the third millennium

should be a spiritual millennium....

2 Thessalonians 2:9-12:

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying

wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love

of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they

should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in

unrighteousness.
