I. Introduction

Why do mathematicians study bible prophecy? For starters, the ancient literal bible supports a high number of fulfilled

prophecies and scientific phenomena,1 and continually instructs readers to ‗watch for signs.‘2

In section II.B, this thesis chronicles important calculations that point to the rise of Satan (and his chosen counterfeit messiah)

in 2015-2016 (Hebrew years 5775- 5776), followed by the second-coming and triumph of the real Messiah3 from 2018-2020 (Hebrew

1 See e.g., There‘s Nothing Random About the Universe, by Jeffery Meiliken. Fulfilled

Prophecy: Evidence for the Reliability of the Bible, by Hugh Ross. Koinonia House Technical, by Chuck Missler. Science in the Bible, by Edward Henry Dowdye, Jr.

2 See e.g., Matthew 24:42; Matthew 25:13; Ezekiel 33:3; Genesis 1:14-18. 3 The biblical messiah‘s name has been transcribed by various scholars: Jesus, Iesous, Yesu,

Yeshua, Yahshua, Yahuwshua, Yhshwh, Ieueshuo, and more. I would like to know the Messiah‘s exact name and pronunciation very much, but I have not been blessed with this knowledge. As

far as I can tell, I‘ve only been blessed with a path toward knowledge. Those interested in reading more about biblical names can read my research study here. Proverbs 25:2, ―The honor of Elohim

is to hide a word; and the honor of sovereigns to probe a word.‖

years 5778-5780).4

But let‘s begin by suspending conclusions for a moment, and asking, ―Even if all literal bible prophecies are consummated to the ‗jot and tittle,‘ why draw the conclusion

that the bible points to a loving and just creator of a solar system?‖ I think most folks come to ‗end-times‘ study hoping to confirm the timeline and identity of the winning team so they can cheer and boo at the right times while wearing a colorful uniform. I‘ll

venture that strategy is shallow by itself.5 Studying the end-times begins with humility - learning how to ask the right questions and knowing

our own personal skills/limitations, rather than believing in hasty conclusions.6 Only with a strong foundation can a man‘s trust firmly weather a storm –

it takes ―grace‖, and the product of grace is service.7

This end-times study is non-denominational and based on independent research gathered from many sources. Though I‘m sure I‘ve failed to some

extent, I‘ve strived to incorporate only credible evidence (e.g., literal bible quotes, sound

mathematical measurements, verified historical records).8

4 If I make absolutist statements or predictions in this thesis (i.e., appearing to claim an

event will happen during a specific year or in a specific way), it‘s simply to show continuity of the

presented theory, rather than any assertion that the theory is actually correct. So I ask the reader to forgive all absolutist statements made in this thesis. It‘s not my intent at all to prophesize, but

rather to share research and analysis. 5 See e.g., Luke 11:33-44. 6 See e.g., Daniel 10:2-3; Luke 14:11.

7 See e.g., Matthew 7:21-27; Matthew 13:3-8; Mark 4:3-20; Luke 8:5-8. See also, Matthew

Chapter 25. 8 Notably, in many instances below I‘ve referenced published books and websites because they are useful to establish the specific and narrow point I‘m referencing (rather than because I

agree with or support the entire publication). It‘s important to remember that the goal here is to

ultimately use the bible itself to interpret prophecy, so all my commentaries and extra-biblical references should be understood in their limited and worldly context, lest they distract from the

greater literal and spiritual messages of the bible. See, 2 Peter 1:16-21, ―For when not going after craftily worked parables we notified you of the power and the coming of our Lord Yah Shua the

Meshiah: but when being seer [prophet] of his own Rabbi Priesthood — for when he had taken from God the Father honor and glory — when a voice came to him as this from the glory of the

appropriate Rabbi Priesthood, This is my son — the beloved in whom I will. We also heard this

voice from the heavens coming to him when having been with him in the holy mountain. And we also have a true word of prophecy which you work well when you look therein, as a candle

enlightening a dark place until the day enlightens and the sun shines in your hearts: when you, first knowing this, that all prophecy be not its own release of the scripture: for prophecy never

ever came by the will of the sons of humanity — except when drawn by the Spirit of Holiness worded by holy sons of humanity of God.‖

Scholars often teach that most of the Book of Daniel was fulfilled in the past and

is not relevant to today. I contend otherwise – probably all of the bible is relevant to today, even if some passages in context serve only as typologies, foreshadowed

examples, repeated examples, correlations, warnings, etc. Indeed, prophetic history appears to be repeating itself like clockwork before our eyes today. Preterism, futurism, historicism – too frequently these terms are used to engage thinkers in a false

hermeneutics debate, where one thinker claims his theory is absolute ly (or definitively) right in all (or most) instances and the other theories are wrong. In my opinion, each of

the above-named theories of interpretation generally have something valuable to offer. They complement one another, perhaps just as individual verses within the Book of Daniel compliment one another.

My goal is to present an end-times chronology that

systematically identifies relevant events, dates, places, and living beings.9 Therefore, this study is based on research, logic, and mathematics.

Beyond the scope of this study is why (spiritually) the Book

of Revelation is likely to be fulfilled, or why (morally) it may be a smart idea to pursue salvation in the biblical Messiah. On these two great questions, I‘ll just venture that by studying the end-times, we

can find a unique spiritual/personal reward - on the mountain of olives, the Messiah is quoted as saying that the love of many chills

because of the abundance of injustices during the end of the age, but whoever endures/evangelizes (Aramaic = sabar) until the finality will be saved/forgiven.10 I find the spiritual emphasis of that

message to be essential to an honest approach to end-times study. Indeed, in many ways it feels futile to completely convince oneself of any particular end-

times chronology -- there are just too many variables in this world of deception, including even calendar disputes (see section II.A below for details). So the Messiah‘s emphasis on the spiritual side saves the study (again) from futility in the hands of sinners, by

contextualizing the focus toward personal endurance and love. Indeed, the message from Matthew chapters 24-25 connects naturally with the only other recorded sermon at the

mountain of olives, found in Matthew chapters 5-7, regarding sin.11

9 Ideally this study is dedicated to researching the wonders of prophecy, and not to the

practice of seeking after signs in an evil or adulterous manner. See e.g., Matthew 12:38-40, John 6:26-30, Luke 10:19-20. Our Messiah instructs that signs follow faith, rather than vice-versa. (Mark

16:17-18; John 6:26-40). Read John Chapter 6 to see that faith/trust is a gift. See also , John 20:29 (―Tama, now you see me and trust: graced — whoever see not and trust.‖)

10 See, Matthew 24:3-13. 11 See, Matthew Chapters 5-7, where the Messiah contrasts the burdens of sin with the benefits of virtue. A key lesson, if I may paraphrase, is to counterbalance your own humility with

a personal zeal for mercy and love (i.e. humbly help the needy, forgive to be forgiven, focus on the spiritual). Note the duties in Matthew 25: feed the hungry, give water to the thirsty, shelter

A. Literal-Based Bible Translations Relied Upon For This Study

For this study, I relied upon the oldest and most literal (word-for-word) Hebrew and Arabic bible translations I was able to find from an independent translator - the translator was named Herb Jahn, and according to the research I‘ve gathered, he was a

sincere and independent Christian: www.virtueinknowledge.com/exegesis-bible.html

Jahn used the Masoretic text, which offers some evidentiary confirmation to 200 B.C. through the Qumran texts (‗Dead Sea Scrolls‘).12 I haven‘t found these

translations infallible, just a useful starting point for research and prayer. And on that note, here is another relatively

useful literal-based translation: www.spvbible.org.

Without delving into detail on textual preferences, I consider literal ancient

Hebrew translations best, followed by biblical Aramaic, 13 and then Greek, especially as the evidence is compelling that the Messiah communicated to his disciples in Hebrew and perhaps occasionally Arabic, but probably not Greek.14

Greek was used widely though in the Middle East, especially as a mercantile and

government language. It is well established though that the Greeks conquered and oppressed the Hebrews, and made extensive efforts to indoctrinate them to their culture of worshipping heathen gods. It appears the main Greek bible translation – called the

Septuagint – reflects some of this bias as well as Roman bias. To their credit though, certain Greeks and Romans helped spread many gospel messages around the world. 15

B. Intellectual Disclaimer About Prophecy

There are a lot of variables that could alter the results here (i.e., disputed dates,16

the stranger, clothe the naked, comfort the sick, and visit the imprisoned. And remember

Matthew 22:37-40, ―And Yah Shua words to him, Love Yah Veh [Aramaic = „alaha] your God from all your heart and from all your soul and from all your power and from all your mind — this is

the first and great misvah [Aramaic = commandment] and the second is like it, Befriend your neighbor as your soul: — in these two misvoth [Aramaic = commandments] hang the torah and the

prophets.‖

12 See e.g., Masoretic Text article, from Wikipedia.

13 See, The Comprehensive Aramaic Lexicon .

14 See e.g., Luke 4:17-19, referenced by Fabre d‘Olivet, The Hebraic Tongue Restored, p. 45,

n. 87, for the proposition that, ―Christ read to the people a passage from Isaiah paraphrased in

Chaldaic.‖ For additional reading, see Which Language Did Jesus Speak – Aramaic or Hebrew?, by Brian Knowles; History of the Ancient and Modern Hebrew Language, by David Steinberg.

15 See e.g., Greeks and Jews, by Jewish Virtual Library

texts/translations,17 measurements, locations, meanings). Accordingly, there is a real danger of being wrong, even deadly wrong, so the smart

thing to do is be humble. It‘s probably wise to accept the admonition from the Messiah to learn the scriptures and watch patiently for key

signs (i.e., the abomination of desolation in the rebuilt Temple as described in the Book of Daniel).18

As far as I can tell the timelines in Revelation are guides for logical deduction of possible end-time scenarios, and the text alone

permits several logical possibilities.19

17 Curiously, the ancient literal Hebrew torah has shown itself to be mathematically

beautiful. See, There‘s Nothing Random About the Universe, by Jeffery Meiliken. But this does not mean that all ‗biblical‘ texts and translations and interpretations are equally beautiful from

the perspective of our Father. Indeed, it is widely recognized that modern bibles have been

subject to certain mistranslations, edits, and additions over the years, especially by priests. Some books are canonized and others aren‘t. Even the bible itself advises that many messages are

hidden (e.g., Proverbs 25:2), and that we should guard against deception by false priests, scribes, and prophets, though it‘s unclear to what extent these falsifiers were able to succeed in their

deceptions (so we have to ‗test the fruit‘ of bible verses). See e.g., Jeremiah 5:31 (―the prophets prophesy falsely and the priests subjugate by their hands‖); Jeremiah 8:8 (false pen of the scribes);

Jeremiah 14:14-16 (―The prophets prophesy falsehoods in my name: I neither sent them nor misvahed them nor worded to them: they prophesy to you a false vision and divination and

worthlessness and the deceit of their heart…. the sword and famine consumes those prophets:

and the people to whom they prophesy are cast out in the outways of Yeru Shalem at the face of the famine and the sword: and there is no one to entomb them — them, their women, their sons

and their daughters:‖); 1 Kings 22:23 (a false spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets); Isaiah 10:1; Isa. 28:7 (priest and prophet err inadvertently through intoxicants); Lamentations 2:14

(prophets see vain burdens and seductions); Ezekiel 14:9 (―And if the prophet, when he is deluded, and words a word, I Yah Veh delude that prophet, and I spread my hand on him, and

desolate him from midst my people Yisra El.‖); Hosea 9:7-8 (―the prophet is a fool: the man of the

spirit is insane, because of the abundance of your perversity and the great enmity… the prophet is a snare of the snarer in all his ways;‖); Jonah 3:4-10 (false 40 day prophecy); Micah 3:5-11

(prophesying for money); Proverbs 25:2, ―The honor of Elohim is to hide a word; and the honor of sovereigns to probe a word.‖; Matt. 16:22 (even after following him for sometime, Peter

continued to falsely believe the Messiah would never die); Matt. 22:29 and John 5:42 (on the teachings of the Pharisees); Matthew 7 :15-20 (―beware of false prophets…by their fruits you

know them.‖).

Here is additional reading for those inclined to mine these dark caves for occasional

jewels of useful perspective: The Edited Bible, by John Van Seters; Who Wrote the Bible?, by Richard Friedman; The Dark Side of Christian History, by Helen Ellerbe; Misquoting Jesus: The

Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why, by Bart Ehrman; Translation Errors and Forgeries in the Bible, by B.A. Robinson; Lost Scriptures: Books that Did Not Make It into the

New Testament, by Bart Ehrman; Forgery in Christianity: A Documented Record of the

Foundations of the Christian Religion, by Joseph Wheless. 18 See e.g., Matthew 24:15. 19 Just for illustrative purposes, here is a site with many diagrams of different possibilities: Revelation and the Jewish War, by Patrick Stone.

With humility, I think it's okay to discuss dates and times because there is a huge

emphasis throughout the bible in tracking dates and times, and instructing readers to watch and prepare for dates and times and signs in a certain chronological order. See

e.g., Matthew 24:42; Matthew 25:13; Ezekiel 33:3; Genesis 1:14-18. Thus, I think the primary message of Matthew 24:36 ("and concerning that day and concerning that hour, humanity knows not") shows that because no man knows the day or hour of the Messiah's

second coming, then we should be humble and not boast, and this also helps us identify false prophets who do boast.20 But Matthew 24:36 does not appear to be a commandment

to plug our ears to dates, as that would conflict with other parts of the bible instructing the faithful to count and watch.

As summarized well by The Little Guy In The Eye, ―Numerous end time prophecies are overlooked because they don‘t fit into the template of the end time

scenarios that are common among believers. The earth tottering like a drunkard, the mountains falling into the midst of the sea etc, are spiritualized to look like they are in the

process of being fulfilled today or could be fulfilled by some spiritual means in the future without literally happening. I have noticed that when end time prophecies don‘t fit into people‘s

charts and graphs and scenarios those believers will spiritualize that prophecy away as to not deal with it, especially if a literal

fulfillment will topple their house of cards. If our theory does not line up with the Word, then perhaps we should consider tossing out our theory, not ignoring Scriptures that have no

indication of being allegorical.‖

From the standpoint of a researcher, we can‘t even begin to see all the possible scenarios (including the false timelines) until we start to test them in detail through

scripture comparison and correlation. In my own experience, time and again I thought I had a theory figured out, but soon found myself required to revise the theory before completing all my comparisons. Fortunately, it was through this process of trial and error

that I came to better understand some key ways in which the False Prophet can deceive the masses. All the same, in my opinion many of the prophecies in the Book of

Revelation and Book of Daniel remain sealed (beyond our proper interpretation at this time).

Another key point - there are many different players described in the biblical end times beyond those familiar names lumped together in the mainstream - ―antichrist‖ and

―beast.‖ Indeed, false prophets often carry pseudo-religious presumptions (and traditions) blinding them to the real prophecies.21 So, to even enjoy a colorable chance at beginning

20 See, Deuteronomy 18:21-22 - "And when you say in your heart, How know we the word Yah Veh worded not? When a prophet words in the name of Yah Veh, if the word neither

becomes, nor arrives, that is the word Yah Veh has not worded, that prophet worded arrogance: fear him not.‖

21 See e.g., Matthew 16:22.

Page 10: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

to understand the unique identities and sub-timelines, please read these prophecies for yourself using the following literal-based bible translations:

The Book of Revelation (Exegeses version) (SPV version)

The Gospel of Matthew (Exegeses version) The Gospel of John (Exegeses version) The Gospel of Mark (Exegeses version)

The Gospel of Luke (Exegeses version) (SPV version) The Book of Daniel (Exegeses version) (SPV version)

The Book of Isaiah (Exegeses version) The Book of Ezekiel (Exegeses version) The Book of Zechariah (Exegeses version)

Another key point – all biblical prophecies

describe beings, nations, organizations, and events that change character over time and space, so it‘s wise to use the most exact words of the literal bible

you can find, to minimize confusion over identities and timelines. For example, the ―living being from

the sea‖ described in Revelation 13 and Daniel 7 is not only referenced as a single entity, but also as sub-entities with evolving sub-identities and powers

(i.e., the horn with a mouth that later takes power from the other horns). For better or worse, the best

we can do is read humbly the available translations of literal-based texts, think deeply, and pray for understanding.

The bible cautions us to beware deception in the end-times.22 On top of that, the

modern bible has a history of edits, deletions, and mistranslations, making it extremely difficult to determine which passages are authentic. (See, footnote 17 above). How then can a human avoid being deceived by a false end-times scenario?23

Remember John 8:31-32: ―If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,

and you know the truth, and the truth liberates you.‖ Prophetic meaning suggests continual crossover between the spiritual and physical.24 So again, be patient and

22 See e.g., Luke 21:8, Matthew 24:4.

23 Christians tend to assume that Satan will only have one round of deception where he

puts himself up as a false Messiah. But what if there were two or more false rounds of deception, perhaps leading all the way through the conventional Hebrew year 6000? We mire ourselves in

assumptions, and its relatively uncertain whether the canonical texts alone are fit to provide our

answers, which is perhaps why the Messiah instructed that his sheep hear his voice (John 10:14 -28) and we are to endure to the end (Matthew 24:3-13).

24 See, The Mysterious Contract Offer in John 8:31, by Greg Glaser. Also, a central theme of

the end-times is: man suffering punishment for giving his devotion and awe to objects and false gods rather than to YHVH. Many of the passages in Revelation and Daniel are devoted to the

Page 11: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 10 | P a g e

humble, in the hopes that you can stand ready to accept a gift of understanding. Who of us, being anxious, is able to add one cubit to his stature? 25

One last disclaimer (for emphasis): Latching on to familiar traditions and

religious assumptions is an easy way to get tripped up. 26 I‘ve been wrong with tentative predictions before by clinging to the comfort and familiarity of sound-bite prophecy, rather than reading chapters carefully for myself. Hopefully this thesis will transcend my

previous misunderstandings.27

C. Context: New World Order of Crime and Corruption

When studying prophecy today, important context can be gathered from independent media research regarding power centers and unholy alliances (military- industrial-political-economic-healthcare). In a

nutshell, just as the bible suggests,28 the world is being subjected to a massive conspiracy for total world domination - virtually every major power center, institution, and government in the world today has been

offensively hijacked on measurable levels. Indeed, there is so much evidence of conspiracy, it is somewhat mind-boggling how effectively the mass media keeps the

majority of people in the dark and even happily serving destruction self-righteously. But so it is - both historically and today, the major power centers continue to serve elitist

folly of idol worship. Ezek. 11:8 sums it up pretty well, ―you awe the sword and I bring a sword

on you — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.‖ Unfortunately, end-times commentaries tend to overlook this emphasis and spiritual meaning by simply focusing on the effects (earthly

destruction) rather than the spiritual cause-and-effect corollaries between sin and death. Without understanding the logical relationship between crime and punishment, and other like

relationships, you end up with shallow-minded websites like this: www.GodIsABitOfADick.com

25 See, Matthew 6:27.

26 See e.g., 1 John 2:26-27, "And I scribe these to you because of them who deceive you. And

also you, if you abide unto him, with the anointing you took from him you need no human to doctrinate you – except the anointing you have from God doctrinates you concerning all – and is

true and has no falsehood within: and as he has doctrinated you, abide in him.‖ Prove rbs 3:5-8,

"Confide in Yah Veh with all your heart and lean not to your own discernment: in all your ways know him and he straightens your paths: be not wise in your own eyes; awe Yah Veh and turn

aside from evil – healing to your navel and moisture to your bones.‖ 27 See, Matthew 7:15-20; Zechariah 8:16. 28 Please refer to the scriptures referenced above regarding the great deception of Satan.

The bible also presents many important dichotomies showing the struggles people have with evil (falsity) and good (truth), such as (a) Cain and Abel, (b) Esau and Jacob, (c) Isaac and Ishmael, (d)

Rachel and Leah, (e) Judah and Reuben. Regardless of your views on the end-times, it‘s difficult to see how you can go wrong if you humbly immerse yourself in the entire bible, love the Father,

accept the Messiah, and treat others as you would like to be treated. As for me, I fall short of these goals every day.

goals to depopulate and control the planet. 29 Participating at the heart of this conspiracy today is the Catholic church30 in Rome, international bankers in London, and the military

command in Washington D.C.,31 though it‘s more complex than that.32

From the bottom up, it begins with natural resources and people. From the top down, it flows from elitism and science/spirituality. Here is a list of books that help expose evil in the world:33

How the World Really Works, by Alan Jones. An extensively indexed book summarizing several important

works of the 20th century that expose a cabal of international elitists destroying nations, people, and

29 A preliminary note of caution though about fear mongering and sensationalism - in my research, I have found there is as much disinformation and rumor about ‗the new world order‘ as

credible and verifiable information. Truly, there is no substitute for careful research and

deliberation, and that often takes years, especially if we are serious about separating verifiable reports from the innumerable exaggerated and biased websites out there. (The main problem I

see on the internet is the apparent game of researchers racing to the lowest common denominator, where the more offbeat claims are the ones generating the most traffic). I suppose

it will even be an achievement if we can each individually reach an evidence-based awareness without succumbing to raw paranoia. And here is a point I simply can't emphasize strongly

enough - this world is full of people wanting to see chaos among nations, so please be very careful and scientific in your analysis of the military-industrial-political-economic-healthcare

complexes. While it's true that powerful institutions often admittedly conceal facts and employ

propaganda/rhetoric, I feel the same is true for the general public, even supposed 'do -gooders.' 30 Catholic means ―universal.‖ The self-proclaimed Catholic Church is actively trying to be the ‗one universal church.‘ What Does The Word Vatican Mean?, by Michael Scheifler. To quote

the current pope Joseph Ratzinger , ―It must be always clear that the one, holy, catholic and apostolic universal church is not the sister, but the mother of all the churches.‖ Much of

Protestantism is Catholicism in disguise, and indeed most organized religion today (even Islam)

carries marks of Catholicism. For more detail, see section A.a.4 below. 31 See e.g., Three City States (describing that London is the financial capitol, Washington D.C. is the military capitol, and Vatican City is the religious capital; and each one is filled with

occult symbolism). 32 There appears to be an innumerable amount of unholy alliances and conflicts between the

international bankers, the aristocratic Zionists, the Catholic hierarchy, the English crown, and all manner of secret societies within these groups, not to mention oppressive military regimes all

over the world. All these roads lead to Satan. Moreover, each of these groups produces disinformation agents willing to point the finger at each another where convenient. The resulting

confusion and chaos never settles in any generation, because the complex powers that crea te chaos also profit from chaos. Disorder, riots, and armed revolution all lead to false solutions –

more war, more oppressive laws, and more resource domination by the wealthy. And sadly, this

whole research subject of organized crime often gets thrown into the ‗conspiracy theory‘ bin. 33 The sheer amount of information (including disinformation) in this research area is staggering, thus making it very challenging to distinguish conspiracy truth from conspiracy

paranoia. But the research process is indeed rewarding and eye-opening, even if only a fraction of the research is accurate.

II. Measuring Corollaries In Space and Time Through World Events and

Monuments_________________________________________________________

There are a staggering amount of direct space-time corollaries on earth that

predict world events. However, this is also one of the most dangerous areas of prophetic study, because there is so much disinformation published on the internet and in books.

Page 16: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 15 | P a g e

It‘s difficult to estimate, but perhaps only around 5-10% of the published information in this category is useful and not deceptive on the whole - the secret societies have a rich

history of circulating these mysteries for idolatrous purposes, and Christians are often terribly gullible in tracking false coincidences. To the extent my logical filters are

reliable, I‘ve included in this study only useful information (for the specific purpose cited).

Isaiah 19:19-20 instructs that the great pyramid of Giza (in Egypt) is a prophetic sign and

witness to earth‘s creator, YHVH.34 Mathematicians and historians have found that by measuring its traditional Hebrew inches and

converting them to 360-day Hebrew years, the pyramid makes predictions of world events. In particular for our study here, pyramid and

other calculations point to the rise of Satan (and his chosen counterfeit messiah) in 2016 (Hebrew year 5776), followed by the second-coming and triumph of the real Messiah from 2018-2020 (Hebrew years 5778-5780), and then the millennial reign begins in 2020

(modern Hebrew year 5780).

Scriptures identify Satan as the major evil power in this world, 35 so it makes sense that the top of the pyramid (proverbial top of the world at 5776 inches) points to Satan‘s pinnacle in 2016 (Hebrew year 5776). Unfortunately, a lot of Christians will be deceived

into thinking this pinnacle of 2016 represents the second coming of Jesus. How could so many Christians be deceived? Well, who among us lacks deep literal and spiritual roots?

I think the answer is all of us to certain degrees.

Indeed, modern end-times theology (exploited in particular by organized

religions) helps make people very reactionary toward world events. And Christians especially are vulnerable to putting their faith in their preacher‘s Jesus, above the literal

bible‘s Messiah and even logic itself.36 A. Calendar Disputes

In spite of all the controversy about calendar disputes, it appears that

mathematical order can be found in both traditional and conventionally accepted

calendars, which suggests a certain accuracy via the power of the Father to show mathematics to our individual perspectives. See, The Divine Calendar, by Ezra (Jeff)

34 Isaiah 19:19-20, ―In that day, there is a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh midst the land of Misrayim; and a monolith beside the border to Yah Veh: and it is for a sign and for a witness to

Yah Veh Sabaoth in the land of Misrayim: for they cry to Yah Veh at the face of the oppressors

and he sends them a saviour — great; and he rescues them.‖ 35 See e.g., Luke 4:6, John 12:31, John 14:30, John 16:11. 36 See e.g., Matthew 24:5, and additional cites below re false Messiahs.

Meiliken.37

The modern calendar (Gregorian calendar) is based upon a 6th century papal decree of the church‘s presumed birth year for Christ.

There was, and is, much debate on calculating the years of birth and death for our Messiah. According to my research, no one really knows just how erroneous the Gregorian calendar stands – some say 10 days,

others 1-year, and some theories can be found predicting as many as 6-years.38

Fortunately though, many things on earth and in the bible act like calendars. For

example, the Pyramid of Giza is a calendar in stone, the biblical jubilee dates can help

predict cycles, and other physical phenomena on earth and in the stars can be used for dating benchmarks. 39

The Hebrew calendar is based on objective moon sightings, but due to various

political meddling in the ancient tallies, many scholars predict that

around 200-240 years are missing from the current Hebrew year (5770). Accordingly, the present Hebrew year may actually be in

the ballpark of 5,970 - 6,010. Indeed, some scholars reach this figure just by counting genealogies.40 This correction is very important, for example, because of the importance of jubilee

37 The more I conduct research in this area, the more I see researchers from different

languages and perspectives finding connections to YHVH across different scientific and academic disciplines. It‘s quite beautiful actually that we retain our individual perspectives and differences

and yet find common ground in our Creator. This principle is described with a scientific basis by

Gregg Braden in The God Code, whose analysis of math, chemistry, and genetics compliments Jeff Meiliken‘s.

38 As described colorfully by mathematics researcher Vic Showell, ―The Gregorian Calendar created a hodge podge of months with 28, 30, and 31 days, which became a basic

human labor calendar designed for western societies and religious controls instituted by the Vatican to erase the ancient mathematics and those spiritual connectivities to the Universal

Harmonics from every day usage passed down by ancient civilizations, and this is the least

harmonious or synchronous calendar in human history.‖ Universal Harmonic Codes, Part II: The Khufu Pyramid Royal Cubit, by Vic Showell.

39 Notably, Jane Marchant of Yeh Space has proposed interestingly that Prince William is ―a

living clock/barometer/timepiece/ticking time bomb‖ whose age can predict a timeline of events before the real Messiah‘s second coming. See section XVII.3 below for more detail on the

characteristics of William that establish his qualifications for the position of ‗Antichrist‘ or ‗little

horn‘. A thorough investigation of William‘s characteristics can also be found in the online book Grail Code, by Clinton Ortiz.

40 See e.g., Mathematical Evidence – The End of This Age, calculating that 2009 represents

the year 5972.

Page 18: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 17 | P a g e

dates41 and the Genesis account of man‘s completion on the 6th day (prophetically, a day can correlate to a year or even a thousand years, directly or by analogy, depending on the

context of the scripture).42

Isaiah 19:19-20 says the Great Pyramid is a sign and witness to the ages from YHVH. And when we convert the measurements in the Great Pyramid from Hebrew inches to 360-day Hebrew years, we see a calendar in stone that appears to cover two

perspectives: from the perspective (inches) outside the pyramid, the end year is 5776 (or 2016 in the Gregorian calendar), but from the perspective (inches) inside the pyramid

leading to the King‘s chamber (genesis calendar that mankind failed to keep track of), 43 the end year is 6,000 (or 6,007). What does this mean? Given the context, it may be reasoned that the outside of the pyramid represents the view of the world and its modern

calendars elevating Satan in the calendar year 2016 (5776).44 By contrast, the inside chambers represent the perspective of the genesis calendar, where the Messiah begins a

new millennial reign in the actual genesis year 6,000. 45

In any case, we should hope to find as many signs as possible to get back on the right track here with a reliable calendar. But to be intellectually honest, we‘re searching

in the dark until we see and understand the Messiah‘s prophecy, ―Then they shelem you to tribulation and slaughter you and you become hated of all peoples because of my name: and then they offend many and hate one to one and shelem one to one: and many

41 See e.g., The Jubilee Code, by William Struse; Numerical Analysis, by Michael Murray; Jubilees and Grand Jubilees.

42 See e.g., Ezekiel 4:6, Numbers 14:34, 2 Pet. 3:8. 43 The reason we can‘t determine the correct year in the genesis calendar might be likened to a relay race, where the runners (mankind) dropped the baton (calendar days) several times

and therefore lost the fluidity (time calendar). 44 Another instance where the pyramid can be shown to represent different perspectives of

a calendar is through the concavity of its sides. See e.g., The Great Pyramid - Reflections in Time (describing the tropical year, sidreal year, and anomalistic year)

45 Perhaps year 6,000 represents the beginning of the Messiah‘s opening of the seven scrolls,

and 6,007 represents the year he dethrones Satan from the Temple Mount.

Page 19: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 18 | P a g e

false prophets rise and deceive many: and because because of the abundance of injustices the love of many chills: but whoever endures/evangelizes until the finality, they live.‖46

So that‘s the solution – from our perspective it may not

technically matter whether we‘re in year 5770 or 5990 or any other similar year – in all cases we need to watch for signs of the Messiah‘s return. Why prematurely or arbitrarily draw conclusions about dates?

Indeed, perhaps 2018 and 2020 are the wrong dates;47 all we can do is watch for signs and do everything in our power to avoid serving Satan.

That‘s the greater message.

So we follow the example of the Messiah in serving the needy patiently with

temperance,48and we follow the instruction to watch patiently and diligently for signs,49 and we use the literal-bible like it is the armor of YHVH guarding against deception and

the spirit as the sword.50 And you‘ll know when you can wait no longer because you will hear the Messiah‘s voice as your shepherd calling you (up) home to follow.51

B. Hebrew Measurement and Numerical Evidence Examples

Measurement evidence is basically mathematical beauty (harmony) between nature and biblical events. Below is just a sample of what 'measurement evidence' looks like. Even where calculations may not be precisely accurate, in the aggregate, they tend

to show the significance of the 2016 and 2018-19 dates:

King Solomon dedicated the first Hebrew temple in 962 BC. 3024 is the number

46 Matthew 24:9-13. 47 Toward the end of his life, Isaac Newton wrote that the end of the age could be in the

year 2060, even though he very much disfavored trying to predict exact dates. Statement on the Date 2060, by Stephen Snobelen. See section VI.B below for an analysis of Newton‘s calculations.

I may be dead wrong that the Messiah first returns in the year 2018, and then begins the

millennial reign in 2020. Indeed, perhaps this thesis only succeeds in exposing two rounds of deception (2012 and 2016), but there is also a third deception around 2018-2020. If so, I‘ll venture

the deception will be between competing spiritual ideologies. In any case, no matter the timeline

we always come back to the introduction of this thesis – our key is to humbly follow the Messiah‘s teaching on caring for one another, avoiding sin, and watching for signs. At the very

least, this thesis should help expose the modus operandi of the apostate religious powers working with their militaristic new world order (of out chaos).

48 See, Matthew 5-7; and Matthew 24:45-46.

49 See, Matthew 25:1-13; Matthew 24:42. 50 See, Ephesians 6:10-18. 51 See, John 8:31; John 10:1-21; Isaiah 5:26.

of years between this dedication of the first temple (in 360 day prophetic years) and the year 2016. 3024 is the perimeter of the Great Pyramid, a Pyramid that is

5776 inches in height52 (5776 Hebrew year = 2016 Gregorian calendar year). 3024 (perimeter of great pyramid) / Pi = 962 (dedication of first temple). 5040

(perimeter of temple mount) minus 3024 (perimeter of great pyramid) = 2016. The moon's diameter, 2160, plus the earth's diameter, 7920, is precisely 5 x 2016. (Source: Psalm 144 and the Year 2016).

5040 is the perimeter of the Temple mount. 5040 also marks the distance from the middle of the earth to the middle of the moon, which is represented in the

great pyramid: (Source: research forum on Psalm 144 and the Year 2016).

Daniel 12:11: ―And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.‖ The

Hebrew letters of this passage have numeric value that adds to 4,486 (See, Bible Wheel database). 1,290 + 4,486

= 5776 (year 2016). (Source: research forum on Daniel‘s prophecy of (2016) as the end of the tribulation).

Bethlehem lies on Pi (3.14) x 10 (31. 41" 59") North latitude. If one extends a

52 The exact pyramid height is disputed. 481.33 feet and 481.090909 feet are both common references. IES Edwards records 481.4 feet, which translates to 5776.8 inches. There are several

reasons to favor Edwards' calculation in comparison to Petrie, Coles and Lehrner, including for example that Edwards recognized the pyramid‘s square base of 756 feet. See, the Universal

Harmonic Codes, Part II: The Khufu Pyramid Royal Cubit, by Vic Showell.

Page 21: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

measuring line from the Temple mount to Bethlehem at this latitude, the line measures 29,809 feet. There are 2,980.9 years (29,809 / 10) from the dedication

of the first temple to the year 2019. If 2980.9 representing solar years of (365.242 days) is converted to (biblical years of 360 days) it is 3024.3052 years. The

perimeter of the great Pyramid is 3,024 feet.53 (Source: research forum on Location of Christ‘s birth from Temple Mount).

Also notable, by multiplying Pi 8 times, the line touches a point on the latitude of

PI x 10 only a few hundred yards from the Church of the Nativity. This location is outside the ancient walls of the city, a fitting location for a stable. Considering biblical numbers and their symbolism, "PI" (3.14159265...) represents a cycle of

time and the full length of a circuit. The number "eight" represents fullness and completion. 29,809 stands as an ideal number combining both, signifying a

finished work through the cycle of time. (Source: Location of Christ‘s birth from Temple Mount)

53 For additional significance of 3024 (pyramid perimeter), prophecy may connect the

number to the 7,000 year age of man outside the garden of Eden. The first 3,500 years outside the garden bring us to around the year of Haman's decree in approximately 474 B.C. to exterminate

all the Jews. 3974 B.C. + 3500 years = 474 B.C. Then, 474 B.C. + 3,500 years = 3027 A.D.

According to Rev. 20:7-9, after Satan is released from the abyss at the end of the millennium (projected year 3020), he deceives masses of people and gathers them for the Gog & Magog war

to try to exterminate all those in Jerusalem. Because the base of the pyramid is 3024, the events of Revelation 20:9 may occur in that year, followed by the judgments of Rev. 20:10 in 3027. Notably,

the latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates of the Great Pyramid are at 30, 30. 3030 may represent the end of this earth, in favor of the new heaven and earth described in Rev. 21 -22.

Taking the floor of the Queens Chamber as the horizontal, the Ascending Passage makes an angle of 26 degrees 18

minutes 9.7 seconds with that horizontal. Using an east-west baseline on a map, if we apply that vector (26 degrees

18 minutes 9.7 seconds) from the Pyramid eastward, we find that it points precisely at Bethlehem. (Source: The Great Pyramid - Reflections in Time).

The height of the Pyramid without the capstone54 is 5,449

inches, which is also considered the average height of all land above sea level throughout the earth. And the gematria value of the letters of the Hebrew words in the Hebrew text of Isaiah 19:19-20 is exactly 5,449 also. For additional gematria

reading and study, see The Bible Wheel.

There are 2,978 years between 962 BC and 2016

AD. When one converts the 3,024 feet of the Great Pyramid perimeter by dividing it by Pi, the result is

twice its actual height in feet, 481.333.55 Because this measurement converted to inches "5776" is the actual year of the Jewish calendar for 2016, it remains

consistent with the timeline of 2012.9 + 3.5 years, 2016 + 3.5 years, = 2019.9 or seven years total.

(Source: Temple Mount proportions and the end of the age).

Each of the Pyramid‘s sides, when measured as a straight line, are 9,131 inches, so the four sides together equal 36,524 inches. Divide by 100, and you get the

exact number of days in a solar year, 365.24. Also, the circle formed in the first ante-chamber, defined by the floor and the two hanging walls, measures 365.25 inches. (Sources: cited above).

33.33 degrees of the great circle of the earth represents 2012 nautical miles.

54 The missing capstone on the pyramid may represent Satan, whom we can‘t see at this time, but we can calculate that he exists as a continuing force in the world.

55 Using just a slightly different data set for the temple perimeter (3,025 ft), we arrive at

481.44 rather than 481.33. And when converted to inches, this comes to 5,777.28, which would represent 1¼ year difference. Thus, knowing the exact pyramid perimeter would be helpful.

According to the bible, Mount Hermon (near Lebanon), is a recurring location for extraterrestrial influence with man. (See e.g., Matthew 16:13-21; Mark 8:27;

Enoch 6)56. It lies precisely at 33.33° north 33.33° east, which is 2,012 miles from the equator and 2,012 miles from the prime meridian. Or to be more accurate, the

number of nautical miles in 33.33 degrees of the earth is 2012.9. Note also the 1/3 corollary in Revelation 12:3 referring to 1/3 (33%) of Satan‘s angels/aliens being cast out of heaven and down to earth. (Source: godswarrior.blogspot.com)

The year 2018 may be the year set for the second coming of the Messiah. For

mathematical analysis emphasizing the importance of the number and year 2018 (Hebrew year 5778) to the entire biblical story

through both the Hebrew and Gregorian calendars, see The Divine Calendar, by Ezra (Jeff) Meiliken.

that N = (1.78947796557785*10 11)/(2026.87752-t)

2018.05778 (or more precisely 2018.0577770005), we get the world population in 2018 CE at exactly 20736000000 people. And while 207 is

component parts, and if we break up the first 12 digits of the mathematical constant Pi (314159265358) into triplets as is often done in Hebrew—like

the 14 triplets in the 42-Letter Name of G-d, the 72 triplets Name of G-

d, and the three letter roots of most Hebrew words—we get 314, 159, 265,

and 358. The applying the ancient mathematical system of gematria to see possible energy sources these numbers relate to, we see that: 314 is the

value of the archangel Metatron and of the Name of G-d Shadai, the one that all Jews put on their doorposts; 159 is the small gematria value of the

upper 42- letter Name of G-d; 265 is the combination of the

Tetragrammaton (הו הי) 26 and the pronounceable version of it [], Adonai (65); 358 is value of the word Messiah ( חישמ Mashiach); and that the sum of the two middle components (159 + 265) equals 424, the value of the

Messiah again, this time as the full name [] Mashiach Ben David)… [T]he

last digit in these four consecutive 3-digit numbers sums up to (4 + 9 + 5

+ 8) = 26, the value of the Tetragrammaton. … Take 5778 and subtract the third digit set from above, 4958 to give us (5778 –4958) equals 820. And

820, as we‘ll get into later, is the value of the phrase that the famous sage Hillel told us encapsulates the entire Torah, the one paraphrased as ‗Love

thy Neighbor as thyself.‘‖

o Notably, 5778k is also the effective surface temperature of sun.

The book There's Nothing Random About the Universe, by Jeffery Meiliken shows statistically significant connections between the

number 2019, pi, Israel, 5778, 210 (levels of the great pyramid), and the gematria value for Mashiach ben David. Chapters 19-20 in particular emphasize the number 2019.

o ―The third and final 2019 sequence [in Pi] is located 4 digits before 1000 at digit #996, and the sum of the digits up to

that point is 4450, meaning that the total value of all the numbers within the constant Pi from the start of the first 2019 sequence up to the last 2019 sequence is exactly 4450 – 1111, or 3339, which may or may not be

associated with the date for the destruction of the First Temple in 3338 HC, and definitely is the square of 57.784080. Moreover, since as we‘ve

previously explained, the sum of all the digits preceding the final …5778185778 sequence is 4240 representing Masiach Ben David, the Messiah, and since the sum of the digits through the final 2019 sequence is

4450, there is by deduction, 4450-4240, or 210 units between them, and 210 is the number of years the Israelites were in exile in Egypt. This

patter is mirrored at the beginning of Pi, where the sum of the numerals up to the 42nd digit is 210,57 leaving a sum of 4240 to the place where the final sequence 42019 occurs. As in the beginning, as in the end.‖

o ―Now, the first occurrence in Pi of the sequence comprised of the

numerical value of Mashiach Ben David, 424, is found at digit #1110 and is followed immediately by 541 (Israel), making …424541… But equally

57 In gematria, the number 42 is associated with the name of the Father. Notably, the longest repeated number in Pi is 242424242. 424 is the gematria value for Masiach Ben David.

telling is that if we ignore the first 4 of …424541… and start the sequence at digit #1111, we find the sequence …24541… and 245 is the location of

the first 2019 sequence, at digit #245, through which the sum of digits was 1111.‖

o ―And speaking of 1111, this next positioning within the first 1000 digits is

quite odd. Right after we find the first 2019 in Pi, we come to the 250th

digit in Pi, or exactly one-quarter the way through the first 1000 digits. And the sum of the numerals in the remaining three quarters if the digits

totals 3338, as in the year the First Temple was destroyed, which also happens to be 5778 x .5778, or 57.782. Then at the three-quarter point, digit #750, the sum total of the numerals through that point is 3339,

representing the first year after the destruction of the First Temple, also 57.782 and leaving exactly 1111 digits until the final

2019.‖ o 5778 is the 18th power of phi. The surface temperature of

the sun is 5778 K

o A repeated theme throughout Meiliken‘s gematria proofs is that the Messiah is fulfilling the law like a balanced equation. For example: 5/7 x 7/8 = √390,625 (words, verses, and letters in

the Torah)

o ―The Numerical value for the ‗Messiah‘ (Mashiach) is 358, and while the first occurrence in Pi of 358 is right at the 10th digit, the next occurrence is 360 times as deep into the endless digits of Pi at digit #3600, which is

quite a curious coincidence considering that immediately following digit #358, we find the sequence 3600. This would be at digit #359, which is

also ‗Messiah‘ (Mashiach) in Aramaic, the language the sages used for concealment.‖

Meiliken continues his work in Joseph‘s Pyramid (Also known as the Great Pyramid), by Ezra (Jeff) Meiliken.

o ―There is a less subtle connection between 5778 and the 10

Commandments. The first set, found at Exodus 20:2 is located exactly at

the 107007th letter in the Torah or the 107000th letter from the word Bereshit (―In the Beginning‖), and 5778 is the exact sum of all the positive

integers from 1 to 107.‖ o ―Now there are 201.1 cubits to this 203rd level, 203 being the numerical

value of the Torah‘s first 3 letters (BRE), leaving 7 additional levels to the apex and since 2011 plus 7 equals 2018, as in 2018 CE, it matches up with

the Hebrew year 5778 dictated by the pyramid‘s height in inches. But more significantly, and more precisely, the ratio of the height and base of the capstone to the height and base of greater pyramid itself is 4.2424%

giving us 424, the numerical value of Mashiach Ben David (the

Page 26: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Messiah).‖

58 Interpretation: From the perspective outside the pyramid (perspective of the modern

calendar), the important year is 5776 (2016), but from the perspective inside the pyramid (real calendar that mankind lost), the important year is 6,007. The reason we can‘t determine the

correct year in the latter calendar may be likened to a relay race, where the runners dropped the baton several times and therefore lost fluidity. Another instance where the pyramid can be

shown to represent different perspectives of a calendar is through the concavity of its sides (describing the tropical year, sidreal year, and anomalistic year) .

The sheer amount of prophetic symbolism linked to the Great Pyramid is also staggering. In particular,

the pyramid‘s dichotomy between the ascending passages and descending passages shows us we

have a choice. We‘re either going to ascend to the King‘s chamber, or descend to the pit. The empty coffin (with no lid) in the King‘s chamber is thought

to symbolize the defeating of death. By contrast, the descending passages lead first to the pit (hell),

and then shortly afterward to a dead end, which represents death. These descriptions match Revelation Chapters 20-21.

Events in time appear to be well represented chronologically in the Pyramid by architectural changes and/or physical features inside

the chambers: o 2623 B.C. - start of the Pyramid's construction o 2141 B.C. - alignment of the last Pole Star

Draconis (Dragon Star) o 1453 BC - exodus of the Jews from Egypt

o 2 AD - birth of the Messiah at Bethlehem o 29 AD - baptism of the Messiah o 33 AD - crucifixion of the Messiah

o 1521 AD - Renaissance o 1914 AD - start of World War I

o 1945 AD - end of World War II Citations: The Great Pyramid - Reflections in Time; Pyramidology; Great

Pyramid Stone Calendar; And for a different set of calculations, see

Beyond Star Wars, by William F. Dankenbring. Psalm 118 (which some say represents the year 2018) appears to contain many

references to the messianic kingdom, as for example with ‗the stone that the builders refused becomes the head cornerstone.‘

There may also be some numerical significance to the Messiah‘s triumph over

Satan in the year 2020, since 2020 is an interesting number for its relative beauty

and mathematical completeness. 20-20 represents a duality (Messiah v. Satan). There is also a Hebrew gematria value for 2020 that connects the number to the

sovereignty of the king who comes after Melchizadek (1010 x 2 = 2020). See,

C. Additional Background Information About the Great Pyramid in Egypt

It has been postulated that the Great Pyramid was designed by Enoch, receiving

his instructions from El Shadday. According to the biblical account, Enoch was the

seventh from Adam, whose name in Hebrew is probably the source of the English word ―inch.‖ Enoch was a prophet and a mathematician, and his book, The Book of Enoch,61

deals much with astronomy, the calendar, measurements, and prophecy. The book of Genesis says Enoch died when he was 365 years old. 62

As originally built, the pyramid had casing stones covered with strange symbols.

The Arab historian Abd el Latif recorded in 1179 that inscriptions on the pyramid were so numerous that they could have filled "more than ten thousand written pages." And

William of Baldensal, a European visitor of the early fourteenth century, tells how the stones were covered with strange symbols arranged in careful rows. Unfortunately, in

1356, following an earthquake that levelled Cairo, certain Arabs robbed the pyramid of

its casing stones to rebuild mosques and fortresses in the city. As the stones were cut into smaller pieces and reshaped, all traces of the ancient inscriptions were removed from

them.63 The use of laser light and maser sound may provide additional explanation for the

manner of the pyramid‘s construction. See, The Great Pyramid – The Impossible Monument, by Joseph Robert Jochmans.

Pyramids have been scientifically demonstrated to represent healing energy properties. See, Secrets of the Pyramids – Experiments in Energy

Form, by Joseph Robert Jochmans.

III. Literal-Based Bible Timeline Theory: 2020 Represents The End of This Age And Beginning Of The Messiah‟s Millennial Reign. Satan is Released From the Earth‟s Abyss in 3020. And The Messiah (King of Kings) Prevails Again Over Satan In The “Gog v‟Magog” War in 3024, Which Is Followed By The Gift Of A New Heaven and New Earth At The Expiration Of This Earth Around 3030._______________________________________________________

Building on the evidence above (earth and monument measurements), the timelines in this section are constructed from bible prophecy using literal-based texts.

Essentially, this theory proposes an approximately seven-year tribulation timeline from 2012-2020. To propose this theory I‘ve had to make several assumptions and

interpretations (many described and rationalized below), including that Revelation Chapters 11-13 have some overlapping time components with Chapters 6-10, such as different perspectives of the same 1,260 time period). 65

62 See, Genesis 5:21-24. 63 The Great Pyramid of Giza, by Martin Gray.

64 See e.g., The Giza Death Star Deployed: The Physics and Engineering of the Great

Pyramid, by Joseph Farrell. 65 If my overlapping theory is wrong, then I‘ll venture it is because I‘ve assumed there is only one 1,260 day period that precedes the great tribulation, and perhaps also I should not have

As highlighted above in the introduction, I ask the reader to forgive absolutist

statements made in this thesis where I appear to claim that something will happen in a specific year or in a specific way. Wherever I make absolutist statements, I‘m trying to

point out the continuity of a given theory, rather than an assertion that the theory is actually correct. My intent is to share research, not to prophesize.

I have intended to offer key scriptural citations in support of this timeline both within the timeline and in the following sections as well. Context is key too, so readers

are advised to read the literal-based scriptures for themselves to test their own perspectives.

2009 – 2012

~ Satan‟s False Start ~

Satan begins mimicking the 7-year tribulation in 2009, which

will ultimately deceive people into believing that his arrival (7-years later) in 2016 is actually the arrival of the Messiah. 66 So 2009-2012

claimed that Satan will mimic the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse from 2009-2012 to deceive people. So if that‘s the case, please forgive my erroneous interpretations and theory, and allow

me to propose an alternative theory, with a 10-year tribulation timeline from 2009 – 2020. In a nutshell, this alternative version would go: (a) 4 horsemen from 2009-2012, which includes

soldiers trampling Jerusalem beginning sometime around 2011-2012, (b) fifth and sixth seals in

2012, and temple sacrifices in 2012, (c) the two witnesses preach from 2012-2016 during the first six trumpets of the seventh seal, (d) living being from the sea executes the two witnesses in 2016,

and the mark of the beast is implemented, (e) the seventh trumpet and seven vials plague people from 2016-2019, which includes the fall of Babylon in 2017, (f) the Messiah prevails over Satan in

the Armageddon war in 2018-2019, (g) the millennial reign begins in 2020. Thus, the major change of this stricter theory would be the placement of the four horsemen in 2009 -2012.

Notably, even this alternative theory still recognizes Chapters 12-13 as a ―sign seen in the

heavens‖ (and therefore allows 2,520 days of correlation/overlapping dates). And it also correlates the event of Rev. 11:7 to the event in Rev. 13:1.

And yet another theory starts the 7 seals in 2016, and begins the Millennial reign in 2024.

And here is another theory ending with 2024: the four horsemen from 2012-2016; fifth and sixth seal in 2016; seven trumpets from 2016-2020 while witnesses preach; witnesses killed and

abomination and mark of the beast and Satan in 2020-2021; seven vials from 2021 to 2023;

Messiah conquers Satan in the battle of Armageddon in 2023; Millennial reign begins in 2024. One mathematical advantage of this theory is that 2024 appears to have a better gematria value

than 2020. And if Satan is released onto the surface of the earth in 3024 (after 1,000 years in the abyss inside the earth), then this matches the symbolism of 3024 being the base of the great

pyramid touching the earth. 66 If Satan is going to deceive the average ‗Christian,‘ he‘ll need to counterfeit a 7 -year

timeline, because the vast majority of ‗Christians‘ believe in a 7-year tribulation, and sadly would probably even reject the real Messiah if he didn‘t come at least 7 years after a peace treaty. See

section XVI below for my prediction of Satan‘s counterfeit 7-year tribulation from 2009-2016. The main evidence that Satan is likely to mimic the ‗end-of-days‘ can be found in scripture, describing

a counterfeit messiah (antichrist), and Satan as a counterfeit creator. Indeed, much of the bible is dedicated to exposing Satan‘s modus operandi as a deceiver who twists the scriptures to try to

Page 31: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 30 | P a g e

represents a counterfeit version of the 4 horseman of the Apocalypse: (1) political maneuvering, (2) war, (3) economic

instability, and then (4) death (humanitarian crises and natural disasters).

Mighty forces are already at work causing destruction and may continue to slowly

convince masses of people that the end-of-days lasts from 2009-2016. There is certainly

no shortage of folks who believe the tribulation is already happening. (For more detail, please go directly to section XVI below regarding the Vatican‘s counterfeit end-times

scenario).

Expect a U.S./Israel war with Iran/Russia starting around

2010-2011, along with Asian wars. This could predictably lead to a Middle East and/or World peace agreement in 2012 that changes the

existing 2009 agreement.67 Barack Obama and others are already being setup (perhaps willingly) to look like ―the antichrist.‖68 All of this results in confusion. A key event will be the London Olympics

in 2012, which will bring media attention to the rising power of the United Nations and Prince William of Wales, calling for world

peace and unity.

As the deceiver, perhaps Satan will manufacture some Israeli temple sacrifices as

early as 2011,69 and he may also produce two forces as his counterfeit ‗two witnesses‘ with the power to stop the rain and turn water to blood. But I would not expect him to

produce a political leader (counterfeit antichrist) who receives a mortal head wound and comes back to life until at least the year 2012, if at all. The manner of Satan‘s deception

elevate himself above the Father. See e.g., Matt. 24:4-5, 24-25, II Thes. 2:3-4, 2 Corinthians 11:13-15, John 8:44, 1 King 22:22.

67 In June 2009, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Israel‘s acceptance of the ―Roadmap for Peace,‖ which tentatively accepted Palestine as a State for the first time.

68 Technically, because term antichrist in the bible refers to anyone who opposes the

Messiah (see e.g., 1 John 2:18-22, 1 John 4:3, 2 John 1:7), presumably there are billions of antichrists on this planet. However, the Book of Daniel and Book of Revelation frequently refer to one

special human antichrist in particular, empowered by Satan, who will ruin and desolate the city

of Jerusalem and the temple, and be instrumental in the abomination of desolation and mark of the beast. He is called ―the little horn.‖ See section XVII.3 below for more detail.

69 Based on recent developments in Israel, preparations for the 3rd temple can be executed

swiftly by the forces in power. See e.g., The Roots of Evil in Jerusalem, by Jerry Golden; Preparations of the Temple Institute In Jerusalem, by Last Days Ministry.

Moreover, there is some scriptural and mathematical evidence that the third temple will be built next to the mosque (Dome of the Rock) currently residing at the site in Jerusalem. See e.g.,

Ezekiel Chapter 40, predicting that the 3rd temple will be built in such a manner that there is a dividing wall between it and the dome of the rock; The Building of The Third Temple In Israel,

by Rob Robinson.

is not prophesied in detail, so we have to watch broadly for signs.

If Satan is deceiving people according to a 2009-2016 timeline, then at some point he will mimic the 5th through 7th seals of Revelation, which are harrowing, and

therefore would require a lot of signs and wonders: great earthquakes, locusts with heads like lions, and meteors.

During this time, the Catholic Church will be able to portray itself as the underdog through its typical PR campaign70 – reference the dwindling number of

Catholic/Christian settlers and missionaries in Islamic countries, and show news clips of missionaries helping the needy amidst chaos.71 Indeed, amidst the chaos that is coming

70 From a PR perspective, one particularly photogenic Catholic to beware is Pope Benedict‘s

makes him a very powerful man." Thou Shalt Not Drool, by The Guardian UK.

with emotional fear and anger, and rely on shallow (or knee-jerk) logic. With that said, please excuse my use of photos in this thesis as an emotional tool – I intend the photos to compliment

upon this world, it will be very challenging to find reliable news – another good reason to keep your literal-based bible handy.

Summer 2012 through Spring 2016

~ Seals and Trumpets ~

Between Summer 2012 and Spring 2016, we experience the first half of the 7+ year tribulation described

(in detail) in the Book of Daniel and Book of Revelation. 72 During this time, Jerusalem will be trampled upon by soldiers for 42 months while daily sacrifices occur at the Temple

Mount. Revelation 11:1-3, Daniel 7:25, Daniel 12:7; see also section IV below for more detail.73 74

This time period will see all four horseman of the

Apocalypse,75 in sequential order:

72 It is popularly taught that Daniel 9:26-27 means the Antichrist empowers a ‗peace treaty‘ with Israel that begins an exactly 7-year tribulation. As described in more detail in section IV

below, this may be erroneous in light of the literal bible, history, and math. Rather than referring to a ‗peace treaty,‘ Daniel 9:26-27 appears to refer to the crucifixion (―cut-off‖) of the Messiah ―in‖

the first half of the 70 years after the Messiah‘s birth, and then the fall of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. to finish Daniel‘s 70 weeks. So the 70 th week was the 70 years from Messiah‘s birth until the

destruction of Jerusalem. With that said, the scriptures certainly do not prevent Daniel 9:24-27

from foreshadowing the last 7 years (before the Messiah‘s return) described in the book of Revelation and in Daniel Chapter 7 and 11-12. Indeed, both Daniel 9:27 and Rev. 12:11 refer to an

abomination that desolates (sacrifices at the temple). Moreover, according to Rev. 6:2 (referring to the white horse with the bow (or rainbow) and wreath), there very well may be a ‗peace treaty‘

at the beginning of the tribulation.

But from a literal reading, the little horn of Daniel 7:8 is described in Daniel 7:21-27 as the

sovereign (Antichrist and his army) who tramples Jerusalem. Can it be said that Daniel 9:26 -27 refers to the same sovereign as Daniel 7:21-27? The reference to a covenant during the great

tribulation is in Daniel 11:28-32, which shows the Antichrist trying to disrupt the ―holy covenant‖ empowered by the Messiah, not any covenant empowered by the Antichrist. So this may be yet

another example of Satanic deception – twisting scripture to substitute the Antichrist for the Messiah.

73 Daniel 11:32-35 tells us what followers of the Messiah can expect, ―And they [followers of Messiah] who declare wicked the covenant he [the antichrist] profanes by soothings: and the

people who know their Elohim [followers of Messiah] strengthen and work: and of the people who comprehend, many discern: yet they falter by the sword and by the flame by captivity and

by plunder — days: and in their faltering, are helped with a little help: and many join them with soothings. And they who comprehend, falter in order to refine them and to purge and to whiten

them to the time of the end: because it is yet for a season.‖

74 Daniel 7:25 and 12:7. A Time = 1 year. Times = 2 years. Dividing of Times = 1/2 year. 360

X 3 =1080 + 180 = 1260 days = 42 months. 75 Apocalypse is another word for Revelation, and it basically means ‗lifting of the veil‘ or disclosing of something previously hidden.

(Seal 1) The white horse of political maneuvering – Expect greater U.N.

power76 as many nations weaken during this time.77 Expect Prince William to take center stage as he preaches (hypocritically) for peace, religious

unity, and security in world government. Somewhat subtle symbolism for the white horse of the Apocalypse (who goes forth conquering with a bow) can be found in the London Olympic Games in 2012:

The bow (―qesta‖) that the white horse rider is holding (Rev. 6:2)

is also translated as rainbow. The symbol of the Olympics is the rainbow rings, and the mascot for the London Olympics is an alien- looking metal idol/statue named Wenlock (meaning ―white

place/monastery‖) that comes to life with the power of a rainbow, and who wears/holds these five rings of the Olympic rainbow.78

Also, Wenlock‘s head has three points (to

emphasize the three medals won by the athletes), so this may represent (by analogy) the three triumphs stated in Rev. 6:2.

It‘s also notable that there is a similar looking Paralympics mascot,

named Mandeville. The Paralympics were started during the London Olympic games in 1948 to honor disabled war veterans from World War II.79 So, following the wars of 2011-2012, it

appears that history is poised to repeat itself.80

76 Rev. 6:2. By way of symbolism, the rider of the horse who holds a bow and a wreath is probably meant for symbolism of triumph by peace. Notably, the wreath is commonly associated

with the Olympic games, which as noted above, will be in London in the summer of 2012.

77 Nations will eventually be ransacked by the living being of the sea, which begins as a

seven or ten nation alliance. Rev. 13:1-10. Daniel 7:19-24. 78 See, The London 2012 Mascots; London‘s Olympic 2012 Mascots Revealed , by Daily Mail UK.

79 See e.g., History of the Paralympics, by BBC Sport. 80 The Olympic games began in 776 B.C. They represented athletic and combat competition between states and kingdoms of ancient Greece. During the games, religious ritual sacrifices

were offered. See, The Ancient Olympic Games, by Judith Swaddling. Following World War II, the Olympics were in London in 1948 (the year Israel was recognized as a nation internationally).

―Though World War II was over, Europe was still ravaged from the war. When it was announced

that the Olympic Games would be resumed, many debated whether it was wise to have a festival when many European countries were in ruins and the people near starvation.‖ History of the

Olympics, by Jennifer Rosenberg. The 1908 Olympic games were originally scheduled to be hosted by Rome, but the 1906 eruption of Mount Vesuvius caused the games to be relocated to

London. Id.

Page 35: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

It would make sense for this World War II typology to

repeat itself for World War III, such that after the massive World War III around 2011-2012, decadent

Olympic festivals are held in London while the world is still war-ravaged. Soldiers then

occupy/trample Jerusalem in 2012 as sacrifices begin again at the Temple Mount. Then the red horse is released as war erupts again.

The wreath worn by the white horse rider in Rev. 6:2 is called

―stephanos‖ in Greek, or ―kelila‖ in Aramaic. Distinguished from a diadem (royal crown), a stephanos or kelila refers to a non-royal head adornment given to a victor, such as an Olympic victor who

receives an olive garland to wear. The word stephanos comes from the root word meaning wreath.81

Prince William‘s mother was named Diana. The primary symbol

of the Roman goddess Diana is the bow she holds, while her

worshippers utilized the wreath (among other things) to honor her in the ceremonial sense. See e.g., article on goddess Diana, by

Religio Romana.

(Seal 2) The fiery (red) horse that takes peace from the earth –

Expect aliens, mighty wars for power/security in the Middle East, and the soldiers of the Antichrist to continue occupying (trampling) Israel and the

city of Jerusalem in particular.82 For evidence supporting this theory that extraterrestrials will arrive in 2012 with the second seal, along with the two witnesses of Revelation Chapter 11, please see section VI.C below.83

81 See, Crowns, by Spirit and Truth Ministry.

82 Rev. 6:3-4. For description and context of the wars, see also Daniel 7:7-8, Daniel 7:16-27,

Daniel 8:1-26, and Daniel 11:29-45. Scripture does not say the wars (fiery horse) stop raging once

the resource rationing (black horse) begins. To use an analogy, it appears the horses are released from the stable in staggered times, but once released, they ride in the fields together.

83 A key ambiguity in my research is on the timing of arrival of Satan‘s angels (or aliens if

you prefer). One interpretation of Rev. 12:1-9 is that the first round of Satan‘s angels/aliens begin arriving on earth around 2012-13 (Rev. 12:3-4), and then Satan arrives on earth 3 .5 years later in

the year 2015-16 with the rest of his angels/aliens (Rev. 12:9). In another theory, Rev. 12:3 -4 and

12:9 are describing the same event, so Satan is cast to earth with his angels/aliens (1/3 of the angels in heaven) in the year 2016 (we can deduct its 2016 because Rev. 12:3 -4 states this is the

time of the seven heads, ten horns, and seven diadems, which correlates to the beast arising out of the sea in Rev. 11:7 and Rev. 13:1 to kill the two witnesses; except there is still a discrepancy in

that the dragon in Rev. 12:3 has seven diadems, but the beast in Rev. 13:1 has ten diadems).

Just as it was in the days of Noah (before the flood), my research shows we can expect lots of unfriendly angels

and/or aliens to begin arriving on earth in this time frame seeking to procreate with women. (Gen. 6, Rev.

12:4, Matt 24:37-39, Luke 17:27, Dan 2:43, Gen. 6).84 However, this does not necessarily suggest that all extraterrestrials who arrive will be corrupting, as

extraterrestrial simply means ‗outside of earth,‘ and some of the celestial messengers and helpers described

in the ancient bible have been angels of our Father. (See e.g., Genesis 18, Daniel 10:13, Daniel 9:21, Matthew 18:10, Matthew 25:31, Mark 8:38, Hebrews 13:1).85

My research suggests that it is during the second seal that the ―two

witnesses‖ of Revelation, who work on behalf of our Father, begin preaching their message of repentance across the globe. (Rev. 11:3-12). Expect these anointed witnesses to preach for exactly

1,260 days (42 months), clothed in saq cloth,86 and chronicling great injustices and apostasy among religions, peoples, and

institutions in the world. Rev. 11:3. See also, sections VIII and XV.B.3 below.

(Seal 3) The black horse of resource rationing – Expect economic instability, especially for the poor while the

wealthy continue to lavish themselves with certain luxuries.87

(Seal 4) The pale (green) horse of death - Expect humanitarian crises as ¼ of the earth is killed by wars,

famine, and living beings of the earth.88

84 Matthew 24:37-39, ―And as the days of Nuh, thus be the parousia of the Son of humanity.

For as it has been ere the flood — eating and drinking and taking women and giving men until the day Nuh entered the ark — and not knowing until the flood came and took them all: thus also

be the parousia [sign] of the Son of humanity.‖ It must be acknowledged that technological forces have already engaged in the rampant genetic modification of species (especially seeds and

animals, but also humans). One interpretation of Genesis Chapter 6:11-12 (―earth is ruined

[shachath]‖) is that genetic impurity prompted the flood (or at least was a factor). 85 Also recognize the potentially important spiritual component of being extraterrestrial, as the Messiah is quoted in John 17:16, ―For they be not of the world as I be not of the world.‖ See

also, John 3:31, John 8:23, John 15:19. 86 Saq cloth is very modest attire associated with mourning and repentance, and is typically

goat‘s hair or camel‘s hair. See e.g., Gen 37:34, Isaiah 3:24, Isaiah 20:2, 1 Kings 20:31 -32. 87 See, Rev. 6:5-6. 88 See, Rev. 6:7-8.

Time-wise, it‘s uncertain where the first four seals fit in with the two witnesses‘

1,260 days of prophecy.89 However, picking up where we left off in our timeline, we are now at the 5th seal of Revelation.

(Seal 5) This is when certain of the deceased are raised and given white robes,

and they‘re told to wait for judgment (until their brethren are also slaughtered on earth).

Rev. 6:11.

Ominously, upon both the trampling of Jerusalem by armies and the abomination of desolation, the Book of Revelation warns people in Jerusalem to flee to the mountains,

as the 6th seal is approaching.

89 My research shows the witnesses‘ tenure of 42 months will occur from 2012/2013 through 2016, overlapping the 2nd through 6th seals as well as the torments/plagues (Rev. 11:6 –

―strike the earth with all plagues, as much as they will‖) of the first six trumpets of the seventh seal. Then at the end of these 42 months in 2016 is the official rise of the 10-horned beast.

However, two other alternative views would be (1) that the trumpets only come after the

witnesses have been slaughtered by the beast, or (2) the witnesses‘ testimony occurs during a 1,260 day gap between trumpet six and seven. Again though (in the big picture), death appears

certain for every human on earth, so the key is to avoid serving Satan regardless of the timeline.

My research has presently failed to reveal independent mathematical evidence that can place the timing of the two witnesses relative to the seven seals and seven trumpets; but for

scriptural evidence, please see sections VIII, XII, XIII, and XIV below. One reason this chronology

is uncertain/mysterious is the textual placement of the seventh blast so far away from the six th blast. The seventh blast comes at the end of Revelation Chapter 11, after a description of the

work, death and resurrection of the two witnesses. Rev. 11:14 states, ―Behold, the second woe goes, and behold, woe three comes straightway.‖ Is the reason for this chronology in the book of

Revelation to emphasize that the seventh trumpet is correlated to the message of the witnesses – emphasizing judgment and calling for repentance? One theory is that because of this chronology,

and the importance of ―thunders‖ to the seventh trumpet, we can place Revelation 10:4 (―Seal

what the seven thunders worded and scribe not‖) as part of the seventh trumpet. Indeed, Rev. 10:11 (―Give time again to prophesy over many peoples‖) suggests that Rev. 11 is a prophecy for

purposes of repetition rather than a chapter in strict chronology with Rev. 6-10. For more detail on this point, see section VIII.A on Rev. 11:19 and Rev. 8:7, and see section VIII.B regarding the

direct temporal link between the beginning of Rev. 13 and the beginning of Rev. 11.

(Seal 6) Upon the opening of the 6th seal there will be a mega earthquake, the sun becomes black, and the moon becomes red, and many ‗stars of the heavens‘90 fall to

earth, and everyone hides, even under rocks, as they openly speak of their fear of the face and wrath of the lamb. Rev. 6:12-17; Mathew 24,

Mark 13, Luke 21.91 The timing of the sixth seal can be quite

interpretive when comparing the gospel records to the Book of Revelation. Matthew 24:15-26 appears

to be describing the abomination of desolation (around 2012-2016) together with false messiah and false prophet deceptions. After this we read in

Matthew 24:29, ―And straightway after the tribulation of those days the sun darkens and the

moon shows not her light and the stars fall from the heavens and the power of the heavens quakes.‖ It‘s unclear how soon after this event the Messiah will arrive, since we read in the next verses

at Matthew 24:30-31, ―And then the sign of the Son of humanity manifests in the heavens and then all the tribes of the earth lament and they see the Son of humanity coming upon

the clouds of the heavens with power and vast glory — and he apostolizes his angels with a great shophar: and they congregate his own select from the four winds — from the heads of the heavens until their heads.‖ 92 93

90 For interpretations of the word ―stars‖ see section VI.C. Also, the Rev. 6:13 ―heavens‖

probably refers to a lower level of ‗heavens,‘ as scripture seems to suggest there are three different layers of heavens: (1) earth‘s sky and atmosphere, (2) planets and stars outside earth,

and (3) the Father‘s dwelling place, which is a paradise. See e.g., Elijah, Enoch and Moses, by Ecclesia staff.

91 For additional insights, see also Isaiah Chapter 13.

92 After this is Matthew 24:32-33, ―And from the fig tree, I doctrinate a parable: straightway its branch — tender and sprouting leaves you know warmth arrives: thus also, you, whenever

you see all these, you know it is arriving at the portals.‖) Rev. 6:13 representing the sixth seal also has a fig tree parable (―the stars of the heavens fall upon the earth as a fig tree casting her unripe

figs.‖) And for other fig tree references see, Matthew 21:18-21, Luke 21:29-31, Isaiah 34:4. 93 Revelation 8:1 -2 describes the first shophar, but perhaps it is the seventh and final

shophar of Rev. 11:15 that is the ―great shophar‖ described in Matthew 24:31 , because (a ) this seventh one marshals in (or opens) the seven vials that complete the judgment (per Rev. 15:1,

―…the seven final plagues: wherein the wrath of God is completed…‖), (b) this seventh shophar requires multiple angels for each of the seven vials rather than just one for a single trumpet, and

(c) according to Rev. 10:7, the seventh trumpet will ―shelem the mystery of God that he evangelized to his servants the prophets.‖

However, if we did correlate the shophars in Rev. 8:1-2 with the shophars in Matthew 24:31, we could claim that Rev 8:1 puts the rapture before the seventh seal. Rev 8:1 -2, ―And when

he opens seal seven a hush becomes in the heavens as the space of half an hour. And I see seven angels in front of God — standing and they are given seven shophars…‖ Matthew 24:31, ―…and

he apostolizes his angels with a great shophar: and they congregate his own select from the four winds — from the heads of the heavens until their heads.‖

Page 39: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 38 | P a g e

―Great tribulation‖ is described in Luke 21:23 during the trampling of Jerusalem

and before the abomination of desolation. Then we read in Luke 21:24, ―Uri Shelem becomes trampled by the people until the time of the people shelems.‖ Then Luke 21:25-

27 states, ―And there be signs in the sun and in the moon and in the stars and upon the earth — tribulation by peoples through the hand of perplexity from the amazing voice of the sea: and a quaking going from the souls of the sons of humanity from the fear of what

is prepared to come upon the earth and the powers of the heavens quaking. And then they see the Son of humanity coming in a cloud with vast power and great glory.‖94

Revelation Rev. 6:12-17 may suggest that most people on earth are deceived into

believing that the second fall of stars/angels/aliens is actually the prophesied return of the

Messiah.95 Indeed, since this fall may be timed to coincide with both the pre-wrath rapture and the end of the first round of tribulation (upon the conclusion of the sixth seal),

many humans will be downright exhausted, and ready to support the Satanic little horn once Satan empowers Arthur96 (and the living being of the sea) to defeat the two witnesses (whom Arthur

would falsely refer to as the beast and antichrist). 97

In any case, then our Father‘s angels hold the four corners of the earth, stop the wind, and mark the seal of the living Alhym (Elohim) on the foreheads of

the 144,000 servants of our Father on the earth. (Rev 7:1-8).98 Meanwhile, up in heaven there are a vast

multitude of people in white clothing who accepted the Messiah and therefore have been executed by the Catholic-organized armies and Prince William. (Rev

94 ―There are ten verses which contain the terms "shake & heaven" which are, Isaiah 13:13,

Ezekiel 38:20, Joel 3:16, Haggai 2:6, Haggai 2:21, Matthew 24:29, Mark 13:25, Luke 21:26, Hebrews 12:26, Revelation 6:13. In particular, Isaiah 13:13 is significant because it also associates this with

the Day of the Lord and the stellar signs. Revelation 6:13 puts this event at the sixth seal.‖ Commentary on Matthew 24, by Jason Hommel.

95 The actual prophesied return of the Messiah (in the year 2018?) is described thusly, ―For

as the lightning goes from the rising and manifests even until the lowering — thus be the

parousia of the Son of humanity.‖ See , Matthew 24:27. 96 According to Rev. 17:11, ―And the dragon and the living being who had and has not — he is the eighth and of the seven and goes into destruction.‖ The second ―and‖ along with ―he is‖

in Rev. 17:11 implies a special unity/bond between the dragon (Satan) and the little horn (William/Arthur). See section XVII.3 below.

97 Indeed, because the seven trumpets look like the seven vials, people will be even more susceptible to thinking the end of the tribulation arrives with the death of the witnesses.

98 And for my analysis of the potentially two groups of 144,000 and any rapture, see section

XV below.

Page 40: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 39 | P a g e

7:9-17).

So to recap, the sixth seal correlates with (a) the fall of Satan and the rest of his ‗stars of heaven‘ (angels) to earth,99 (2) the possible rapture of the 144,000 virgins, (3)

the marking of the 144,000 in the tribes of Israel, and (4) and the sign of the lamb (or the people just think it‘s the face of the lamb?) resulting in fear of the coming wrath.

(Seal 7) When we enter the beginning of the seventh seal (with its seven trumpets). This will be a

time of ―mega tribulation‖ where even more false messiahs and false prophets arise, and religious deception leads to all kinds of sorceries and bizarre

worshipping in spite of all the plagues associated with the seventh seal. (Matthew 24:24; 2 Thessalonians

2:9).100 By this theory, where the trumpets take place

during the reign of the witnesses from 2012/13 through 2016, here is what we can expect in the 2014-2016 timeframe:

The first trumpet brings hail and fire mingled with blood cast to earth, such that 1/3 of the trees and green herbage burns. (Rev. 8:7). The second trumpet brings a fiery

mountain cast to the sea, where 1/3 of the sea becomes blood. (Rev. 8:8-9). Trumpet

three brings a fiery star to earth where 1/3 of the streams and fountains become bitter,

which kills much of humanity. (Rev. 8:10-11). With trumpet four we see 1/3 of the sun, moon, and stars darken, which results in the loss of 1/3 of both day and night. An angel warns ‗woe to them

who settle on the earth because of the rest of the trumpets‘ (Rev. 8:12-13). With trumpet five, a star falls

from heaven and a key is given to open the abyss, and smoke ascends from the pit and the sun and the air darken from the smoke, and from the smoke, locusts

come and for five months torture (like a stinging scorpion) humans without the seal of Elohim in their

foreheads. (Rev. 9:1-11)101 Trumpet 6 is described in

99 This event occurs in 2012, which is 42 months before the fall of Satan and the rest of his angels in 2016. As described in this thesis, perhaps the entire Catholic Church deception hinges on

people not being able to see this distinction. 100 Keep in mind the typology of Exodus, which is a recurring theme throughout Revelation. The sorcerers and magicians of Egypt were able to produce signs and wonders, and desperately

clung to their claim of authority even while being struck with plagues. See e.g., Exodus 7:10-15,

8:1-7. 101 Rev. 9:1-12, ―And the likenesses of the locusts — likens to horses prepared to war; and on their heads as gold—like wreaths and their faces as faces: of humans and they have hair as hair of

women and their teeth as lions: and they have breastplates as breastplates of iron; and the voice of their wings as the voice of chariots — of many horses running to war; and their tails like

Page 41: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 40 | P a g e

Rev. 9:13-12 – The Euphrates river is loosened, and four angels are prepared to slaughter 1/3 of humanity (possibly over the course of one year, one month, one day, and one

hour).102 Horses with fiery and sulphorous breastplates, with the heads of lions and tails like serpents slaughter 1/3 of humanity with the fire and smoke and sulphur coming from

their mouths.

If we just step back a moment, and look at all these seals and

trumpets in the big picture, it appears that where the masses have been motivated by fear and confusion, they will have gravitated to major

religious institutions, such as Catholicism, where they will have also been misled by false teaching.103 For example, my research shows that Vatican City and various other governments are likely present evidence that they

have been in contact with extraterrestrials for decades.104

Meanwhile, during these 42 months, the two witnesses of our Father will have been preaching their message of repentance, and wielding the power to cause plagues, stop the rain, and turn water into blood. (Rev. 11:6).105 The Book of

Revelation further describes that the earth‘s inhabitants (who reject repentance) will be so angry with the plagues that they attempt to destroy the witnesses, but none are able. (Rev.

11:1-7).106

By now it will be clearer that we have drawn close to the

(official?) crowning of Satan‘s chosen sovereign (the ―little horn‖ or Antichrist), who is a human selected by Satan to help marshal

in the fullest expression of the abomination of desolation (Satan‘s icon worship at a new Temple Mount in Jerusalem). (See e.g., Daniel 8:13-14, Daniel 11:31, Daniel 12:11-12, Rev. 13).

The human chosen by Satan will be Prince/King William. 107 Expect William to

scorpions and stings in their tails: and their authority is to injure humanity five months. And they

have a sovereign over them, — the angel of the abyss, his name in Hebraic, Abaddon, and in Hellenic has the name, Apollyon. The first woe is gone: and behold, still two woes come after

these.‖ See also, Rev. 14:9-11, Rev. 16:10-11. 102 Rev. 9:15 suggests this plague (or its preparations) will last one year, one month, one day,

and one hour. It‘s uncertain whether this is literal or figurative. 103 This teaching can be expected to become much worse later as Satan increases his power. See, Rev. 13:11.

104 See e.g., Ufology and Theological Clarifications, by Corrado Balducci.

105 Again, these powers coincide with the timeline of the four horses of the Apocalypse in the first 42 months of the tribulation.

106 Indeed, it is even said that fire will proceed from the mouths of the two witnesses to

devour anyone trying to destroy them. (Rev. 11:5)

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 41 | P a g e

receive a mortal head wound, come back to life by the power of Satan, and then change his name to King Arthur. (Rev. 13:3, Rev. 17:11, Daniel 8:24). People will marvel at

these events and powers. (Rev. 13:1-4). King Arthur is therefore the sovereign (little horn) who takes control of the ―living being from the sea‖ (alliance of militaristic

nations)108 and kills the two witnesses of Revelation. (Rev. 11:7-14).109

Incidentally, there are clues in the Book of Daniel that a

nation meeting the description of the United States of America can be expected to significantly change power in the year 2016. See,

references in Daniel Chapter 8 to the ‗buck of the doe goats.‘110 It seems the doe goat in Daniel 8 may refer to the American

military alliance that is (will be) conquering the two horns of Persia (Iraq and Iran). The mighty horn on the doe goat (America)

then breaks into four pieces as ―the rebels are consummated,‖ which may refer to a coming American revolution. (Daniel 8:22).

107 See section XVII.3 below for more detail on the characteristics of William that establish his qualifications for this position. Another thorough investigation of characteristics can also be

found in the book Grail Code, by Clinton Ortiz. 108 Expect a blasphemous name (see Rev. 13:1 and Rev. 17:3), such as ―Holy Roman Kingdom,‖ which in worldly speak basically means ‗godly upright man sovereign.‘ Of course,

such a name might be too obvious. Indeed, perhaps Satan is more likely to choose a religious

name that means something like, ‗kingdom of god on earth.‘ Another plausible name might be something simple and already in existence, like ―United Kingdom.‖

109 Please see section VIII.B below for a more in depth discussion on the relationship

between Rev. 11 and Rev. 13.

Reading Revelation 11 by itself, it is unclear whether the two 42 month periods in Rev.

11:2-3 (trampling the city and witnesses‘ prophecy) are overlapping, or successive, and further whether they are both contained within trumpet six or whether they advise of the timing that

trumpet six concludes, or even whether they precede trumpet six. To our credit, we have the benefit of (a ) the Book of Daniel, (b) the rest of the Book of Revelation, and (c) the measurement

evidence discussed above in section II.B, which may help narrow down the present Rev. 11 interpretation options.

110 The country called ―Yavan‖ in Daniel 8 is Greece, which represents d emocracy and polytheism. Greece is often called the cradle of Western civilization, the birthplace of democracy,

Western philosophy, the Olympic Games, Western literature and historiography, political science, major scientific and mathematical principles, and Western drama, including both tragedy

and comedy. Today, Greece is called the Hellenic Republic. It appears that ancient Yavan was foreshadowing the modern western nation, such as America, that fight wars in the name of

―spreading democracy,‖ engages in polytheism, promotes western philosophy, produces major

scientific achievements, and loves its dramas and tragedies.

Notably, the land known today as the District of Columbia bore the name ‗Rome‘ in 1663 property records; and the branch of the Potomac River that bordered ‗Rome‘ on the south was

called ‗Tiber‘. Vatican Power, Witchcraft, and Top U.S. Officials, by Greg Szymanski.

Page 43: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

The timing of this may be approximately in the year 2016 (or perhaps as early as 2012 depending on the context), because Daniel 8:23-25 continues the chronology immediately

thereafter by describing the rise of the little horn ―and a sovereign of strong face and discerning riddles stands: and his force is mighty — and not by his own force: and he

ruins marvelously and prospers and works; and ruins the mighty and the people of the holy one: and through his comprehension deceit also prospers in his hand; and he greatens in his heart and by serenity ruins many: he also stands against the Governor of

governors; and is broken by a final hand.‖

From Daniel 8, note that the higher horn (Iran) comes up last. This may refer to Iran being conquered after the shorter horn of Iraq. And note that the goat comes from the west (Daniel 8:5) to attack the ram.111

Spring 2016 through Summer 2019 ~ Seventh Trumpet, Judgment, and Seven Vials ~

Spring 2016 through Summer 2019 will be a time period of monumental

proportions as we experience the 7th trumpet of the 7th seal, followed by the seven vials.112

Most of the people still alive in the world at this point (who do not honor the Messiah)113 rejoice at the killings of the Father‘s two witnesses (Rev. 11:10), and perhaps

many do so as if it were the prophesied defeat of ‗the antichrist and beast.‘ They even give gifts to one another to celebrate, due to the plagues associated with the two

111 With regard to Iraq and Iran, note phrase in Genesis 22:13, "a ram held in a thicket by his

horns." Another word for thicket is ―bush.‖ It may be a useful trail marker in our study that during the CIA-orchestrated September 11 attacks, George Bush was reading the following book

to kindergartners on national television, ―The Pet Goat.‖

―The ram or sheep was a potent symbol in pre -Islamic Sassanian times and was often

used as a banner by the ancient clans of Iran.‖ The Lion and Sun Motif of Iran, by Kaveh Farrokh. ―`Ram' was a sacred name in pre-Islamic Iran;‖ Rama, The Great King of Suma, Elam And Indus,

by Ranajit Pal. For some useful historical analysis of the foreshadowed goat, see Daniel‘s Vision of the Ram and the Goat, by Robert Mock.

112 One might deduct that in the days of the 6 th and 7th seals the days will be shortened (Matthew 24:22) because the opening of these seals causes celestial bodies in our solar system (that

help regulate the earth‘s clock) to act dynamically in falling, disappearing (going dark), and so forth.

113 Daniel 11:32-34 tells us of the deaths that followers of the Messiah can expect, ―And they

[followers of Messiah] who declare wicked the covenant he [the antichrist] profanes by soothings:

and the people who know their Elohim [followers of Messiah] strengthen and work: a nd of the people who comprehend, many discern: yet they falter by the sword and by the flame by

captivity and by plunder — days: and in their faltering, are helped with a little help: and many join them with soothings. And they who comprehend, falter in order to refine them and to purge

and to whiten them to the time of the end: because it is yet for a season.‖

witnesses. (Rev. 11:10). But then in a public display, the two witnesses are resurrected with the voice of the Messiah114 after 3 and ½ days, an earthquake strikes Jerusalem

killing many. (Rev. 11:7-12). These events cause many to be converted back to acceptance of our Father and Messiah. (Rev. 11:13).

But alas, King Arthur (formerly Prince

William) marshals forward, empowered by

Satan as the leader of the new one world government (Rev. 13:7-8), and then with the

help of the ―living being from the land‖ (Vatican) 115 requires everyone to worship Arthur. (Rev. 13:1-15). Even more

specifically, the daily temple sacrifices at the Temple Mount are stopped and King Arthur

and the Catholic Church, serving Satan, implement the abomination of desolation at the Temple Mount, whereby (a) Arthur speaks

blasphemies claiming he is the Messiah and that his powers come from the Father (even

though they come from Satan),116 (b) the Vatican dazzles the masses by making fire rain down from the sky, and then requires that people serve Arthur,117 (c) Arthur and the Vatican start a new calendar,118 (d) through

Satan‘s powers, the Vatican makes an idol of King Arthur come to life, and then requires worship of the idol, 119 and (e) in connection with the idol worship, the Vatican

implements the ‗mark of the beast.‘120

114 Rev. 11:12, ―And they hear the voice of the Rabbi from the heavens wording to them,

Ascend here! — and they ascend to the heavens in a cloud.‖ 115 Again, it is the Living Being/Beast of the Land (self-proclaimed ―Holy Roman Catholic

Church‖) who performs the ―sultanship‖ of the Living Being of the Sea (revived Roman Empire). Rev. 13:12. For more detail on why the Beast From the Land is apostate religion run by the

Vatican under the name ‗Holy Roman Catholicism,‘ see section XVII.A.4 below, and. See also, Rev. 13:11-18 and Revelation Chapters 17-18. And for commentary, see Satanism In The Vatican.

116 See, Daniel 7:25, Daniel 8:25, Daniel 11:36-39, Rev. 13:1-15.

117 See, Rev. 13:13-14. 118 See, Daniel 7:25. 119 See, Rev. 13:14-15. 120 See, Rev. 13:15-17. The mark of the beast is most likely a microchip or some kind of tattoo

in the shape of a cross and/or six-pointed star (falsely dubbed the Star of David), possibly even bearing the name or number representation of the name of the beast (i .e., ―tattoo of his name‖

from Rev. 14:11, which suggests the mark will bear the name of Arthur (the living being/beast of the land). The word mark in Aramaic is ―rusma,” which is most often translated as tattoo. It is

given on the right hand or forehead and can be used to bu y or sell goods in the one-world-government system. See, Rev. 13:11-18, and note especially the disjunctive ―or‖ used two times in

Before we go further, let’s recap our timeline to this point to see how far we’ve come.

Rev. 11:2 showed 42 months of trampling the city while the witnesses preached,

which was the first half of the tribulation (2012-2016). Only after these two witnesses finished their testimony did the living being (Revived Roman Empire) ascend from the sea in 2016. Rev. 11:7. The living being of the sea kills the two witnesses in 2016 and

institutes the abomination of desolation and the mark of the beast, which then brings in the hour of judgment with the seventh trumpet. See 11:18 (time to judge the dead).121

We know the living being will now have an additional 42 months after the little

horn is brought back to life by Satan. Rev. 13:5. As we will soon see, in these 42 months

(2016 – 2019) the Father will bring great plagues against the earth. Beginning in 2016, Satan commences the events of Rev. 13:6–18, which are great blasphemy and

abomination of desolation at the temple,122 conquering Israel, controlling all nations, and implementing the mark of the beast and slavery of mankind. The 144,000 are seen on Mt. Zion in 2016 (Rev. 14:1-6),123 and then the hour of judgment comes in 2016 (Rev. 14:7).

Now let‘s go back into our chronology, beginning with the ―hour of judgment‖

(Rev. 14:7, Daniel 12:1). It is upon the beginning of the hour of judgment that we know Babylon shall fall in one prophetic day (translates to 15 literal days). (Rev. 14:7-8, Rev. 18:2; and Rev. 18:10 and 18:19 specifying ―one hour.‖)124

Rev. 13:17, ―…so that humanity is not able to merchandise… except who has the tattoo upon

them or the name of the living being or the number of his name.‖ Logically and spiritually, the mark of the beast is an extreme form of slavery / domination of mankind, for which we will

desperately need the real Messiah for our rescue. See e.g., Isaiah 35:4. For more detail on the mark of the beast, please see the 8 -part series presented by Little Guy In The Eye, and see also

section XI below.

121 The prelude to the first trumpet of the seventh seal (Rev. 8:5) appears to foreshadow the

seventh trumpet (Rev. 11:19). Rev. 11:19 says, ―and there become lightnings and thunders and voices and fire and great hail.‖ Rev. 8:5 states there are ―thunders and voices and lightnings and

quakes:‖ Since voices can equate to quakes (see e.g., Ezek. 3:13), then all that‘s left to correlate Rev. 8:5 with 11:19 is fire and hail. And behold, the first trumpet of the seventh seal (Rev. 8:7) is fire

and hail. Thus, Rev. 8:5-7 foreshadows Rev. 11:19.

122 We can use the gospel records to identify the opening of the 6 th seal as sometime after the

―sign of the foul desolation worded by Daniel the prophet.‖ See, Matthew Ch. 24, Mark Ch. 13, Luke 21.

123 For comparison, see also Daniel 12:1.

124 Revelation Chapters 17-18 provide the timeline for the punishment of Babylon. See especially the chronology: Rev. 17:16-17 (―And the ten horns you see upon the living being, these

hate the whore and work her desolate and naked and eat her flesh and burn her with fire:‖), followed by Rev. 18:4 (―…Go from within her, my peoples, that you not partake of her sins lest

you take of her plagues…‖), and then finally Rev. 18:8 (―Because of this in one day her plagues come upon her — death and mourning and famine and she burns in fire:‖). As described below,

Now the seventh trumpet (―lightnings and thunders and voices and fire and great

hail‖) brings seven vials that are teeming with plagues for humanity (Rev. 10:1-11; Rev. 11:19; Rev. 16:1-21).125 Interestingly, because we know that Babylon (Vatican and

Rome) will be destroyed by fire (Rev. 18:8,126 Rev.18:18, Rev.14:8-11) and then submerged under the sea (Rev. 18:21), the description of the vials (foreshadowed by the

trumpets) helps us confirm that the destruction and burning of Babylon comes with the second through

fourth vials, perhaps sometime between 2017-2018.127

Upon the pouring of the first vial of Rev. 16:2, those who accepted the mark of the beast

receive painful ulcers.128 During the second vial of Rev. 16:3,

everything in the sea dies.129 This may also

these plagues may be represented in the second through fourth vials.

For additional information on the identity of Babylon, see section XVII.A.2 below. 125 Interestingly, the seven trumpets even foreshadow the seven vials (in chronological

order), and the seven angels who blast the seven trumpets are the same angels who pour the vials. See, Rev. 15:6.

For an interesting view of the vials corresponding to the Egyptian plagues, see The Seven

Last Plagues or Vial Judgments, by Clarence Larkin. 126 Rev. 18:8, ―Because of this in one day her plagues come upon her — death and mourning

and famine and she burns in fire…‖ See also, Rev. 18:10 and 18:19 specifying ―one hour.‖ 127 Another theory is that the fall of Babylon comes with the seventh vial. See , Rev. 16:17-21, ―And angel seven pours his glass vessel into the air and a great voice goes from the nave — from

in front of the throne, wording, So be it! And so be it, lightnings and thunders and great quakings none having been likewise from the sons of humanity being upon the earth as this quaking thus

— being great. And so be it, the great city is in three parts and the cities of the peoples fall: and

Babel the great is remembered in front of God, to give her the cup of the fermented wine of the anger of his wrath and all the islands flee and the mountains are not found and a great hail as a

talent weight descends from the h eavens upon the sons of humanity: and the sons of humanity blaspheme God over the plague of the hail: because the plague is very great.‖ See also, Rev.

17:16-18:8; Rev. 18:21 (―And one of the powerful angels takes a stone as a great millstone and casts it into the sea, wording, Thus with violence is that great city Babel cast and not to be found

again…‖)

128 This first vial is foreshadowed by the first trumpet, whereby hail and fire mingled with

blood is cast to earth, such that 1/3 of the trees and green herbage burns. Rev. 8:7. 129 This second vial is foreshadowed by the second trumpet, which brings a fiery mountain cast to the sea, where 1/3 of the sea becomes blood. Rev. 8:8-9 .

represent (as foreshadowing or otherwise) Mystery Babylon‘s ―death‖ in Rev. 18:8.

With the third vial of Rev. 16:4-6, the waters become blood for people to

drink (which is punishment for apostate religion‘s spilling of blood).130 This may also represents the Vatican‘s mourning

and famine plague of Rev. 18:8.

During the fourth vial of Rev. 16:8-9, the sons of humanity are scorched with fire.131 This may also

represent the Vatican‘s plague of burning in fire in Rev. 18:8.

With the fifth vial of Rev. 16:10-11, darkness is poured out on the throne

of the living being and his sovereigndom, causing painful blisters and they eat their own tongues while blaspheming the Creator. 132

The sixth vial of Rev. 16:12-16 marshals in preparations for war between the

Messiah and the evil forces of earth. The demon spirits of Satan, little horn (Arthur), and

the False Prophet (last pope) go to the remaining sovereigns of the earth to congregate them for the battle of Armageddon. Rev. 16:12-16. 133 134

The seventh vial of Rev. 16:17-21 brings in lightnings and thunders and great

130 This third vial is foreshadowed by trumpet three, which brings a fiery star to earth where

1/3 of the streams and fountains become bitter, which kills much of humanity. Rev. 8:10 -11.

131 This fourth vial is foreshadowed by trumpet four, where 1/3 of the sun, moon, and stars

darken, which results in the loss of 1/3 of both day and night. Rev. 8:12. 132 This fifth vial is foreshadowed by trumpet five, whereby a star falls from heaven and a key is given to open the abyss, and smoke ascends from the pit and the sun and the air darken

from the smoke, and from the smoke, locusts come and for five months they torture (like a

stinging scorpion) the humans without the seal of Elohim in their foreheads. Rev. 9:1 -11. 133 We can probably expect that since the false prophet is still deceiving the nations, he will claim that the nations need to congregate for the ‗Gog & Magog war‘ around 2018. In reality, the

false prophet is congregating the nations to the battle of Armageddon against the Messiah as described in Rev. 16:12-16. The Gog & Magog war will not occur until approximately 1,000 years

later.

134 This sixth vial is foreshadowed by trumpet six, where the Euphrates river is loosened,

and horses with fiery and sulphorous breastplates (with the heads of lions and tails like serpents) slaughter 1/3 of humanity with the fire and smoke and sulphur coming from their mouths. Rev.

9:13-21.

quakes, and all the islands flee and the mountains are not found and a great hail as a talent weight descends from the heavens upon the few remaining sons of humanity: and

they blaspheme the Creator over the plague of the hail because it is so great. 135 136

After this,137 the Book of Revelation describes man‘s war against the Messiah. Expect this war to occur around 2019-2020. The Messiah and his host of heavenly angels

battle decisively with the unholy armies. (Rev. 19:11-21).138 The

Messiah prevails (heroically), which is the first great step toward the new millennial age in 2020. (Rev. 19:11-21,

Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, Daniel 12:12). But first, after the Savior of

mankind prevails, he casts the two living beings (and all who accepted the mark of the beast) into the destroying lake of fire, and he

casts Satan into the prison abyss inside the earth for 1,000 years.139 (Rev. 19:11-21; Rev. 20:1-3).

135 To be stoned with a great hail appears to be an appropriate final plague for the apostate

church that claimed to be built on an unbreakable rock foundation. Church dogma promotes

―sacred magisterium‖ which claims that the pope is the supreme teacher of the one true church (from ‗Peter the rock‘) and that his doctrines are undeniable truth. Revelation 18:4 and Rev. 18:7

seem to help put these false doctrines in their place/context, ―power of her madness‖ and ―she glorifies her soul and exults.‖ For more on the Catholic Church apostasy, see section XVII.A.4.

136 This seventh vial is foreshadowed by trumpet seven, with its ―lightnings and thunders

and voices and fire and great hail.‖ Rev. 11:15-19.

137 Additional corroboration can be found in Isaiah 24, which appears to be describing the

tribulation at the end of this age as YHVH evacuates the earth prior to the Messiah reigning in (or over) Jerusalem. In particular, Isaiah 24:18-23 may represent the time of the sixth seal through the

return of the Messiah to reign. ―…for the windows from on high open, and the foundations of the earth quake: in shattering, the earth shatters; in breaking, the earth breaks; in toppling, the earth

topples; in staggering, the earth staggers as intoxicated and sways as a hammock; and the

rebellion thereon is heavy: and it falls, and rises not. And so be it, in that day, Yah Veh visits upon the host of the high ones on high and the sovereigns of the soil upon the soil: and they

gather a gathering as they gather the bound in a well, and shut them up in the lockup; and after many days they are visited. And the moon blushes and the sun shames when Yah Veh Sabaoth

reigns in mount Siyon and in Yeru Shalem — honorably in front of his elders.‖ 138 At Revelation 19:16, it is said the Messiah has a new name written on his garment,

―Sovereign of Sovereigns and Master of Masters.‖ 139 Satan is cast into the abyss for 1,000 years (a prison inside the earth that is different from the lake of fire that destroys). Rev. 20:1-3. For useful studies regarding the meanings of hell,

abyss, gehenna, tarturus, hades, and so forth, see the articles at www.tentmaker.org.

2020 through 3020

~ Millennial Kingdom ~

Regarding the one thousand years beginning in 2020, the Book of Revelation itself does not describe in great detail what life

is like during these 1,000 years of Messianic reign (while Satan is in the abyss), but there are some helpful clues. First, we are told

the current earth will continue for the next 1,000 years, leading up to the infamous Gog and Magog war. (Rev 20:1-11).

We are also told these 1,000 years represent a time where some of the resurrected (who declined the mark of the beast) reign

with the Messiah, as priests (for the Messiah and our Father). (Rev. 20:4-6).

According to the Book of Isaiah this will be a time of peace (Isa. 2:1-4), sobering up from the weary of the tribulation

(Isaiah 51:17-23), turning some parched areas into gardens (Isa. 51:3); and a time where the earth wears out like old clothes (Isa. 51:6). Although it is difficult to discern which passages of the

Old Testament refer to the millennial kingdom, here are some scriptural references that I think provide some helpful detail on

this time period: Isaiah 51:1-23; Isaiah 65:8-16, Daniel 7:27,140 Ezekiel 34:1-31; Ezekiel 36:33 - 37:28; Ezek. 38:10-12; Ezek. 48:30-35; Amos 9:11-15; Psalms 72:1-17. See also, Rev. 2:24-

27; 20:1-6.

3020 and Beyond

~ War and Peace ~

3020 will experience Satan‘s release from the abyss (Rev. 20:7), upon which he deceives many141 in order to congregate them for the Gog and Magog war, 142 where they surround the holy city of Jerusalem. Our Father then sends fire down from the heavens to

140 Unfortunately, modern translations of Daniel 7:27 frequently deviate from the literal

translation, attempting to refer to an ―eternal kingdom‖ rather than ―age-during kingdom‖ for the millennial reign. Only the literal translation squares with the timeline in the Book of

Revelation, Chapters 20-22. 141 It is written that the number deceived is like the sand of the sea. It‘s unclear whether

these are people or demons, or both. 142 Without the aid of the Book of Revelation, it can be difficult to tell the difference between pre-millennium (seals) and post-millennium (Gog and Magog war). See e.g., Ezek. 7:19, Ezek.

38:18-20, Zep. 1:15.

Page 50: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

consume all the raging armies. (Rev. 20:8-9)143 Measurement evidence suggests this will happen in the year 3024. (See section

II.B above for date and symbolism confirmations).

Satan is then cast into the lake of fire, where the living being and false prophet already are. (Rev. 20:10). Here, they are all tormented day and night for a long but limited time described

as multiple ages. (Rev. 20:10)144

After Satan is cast to the lake of fire, scrolls are then

opened in heaven and judgment is issued upon the dead. It is written that ―the earth and the heavens flee‖ from the face of the

one seated upon the ―great white throne.‖ After which, death and sheol, and anyone whose name is not found in the scroll of life, are cast into the lake of fire, which is the second death. (Rev.

20:11-15)145

After this, the City of Revelation descends to the new earth from the new heaven,

143 This appears to be the final test of faith. With the city surrounded (presumably

defenseless per Isaiah 2:1-4), Jerusalem waits for our Father‘s fire to rain from heaven upon the enemy.

144 In all likelihood, the Father will employ something similar to eye -for-an-eye justice (i.e., Exodus 21:24, Matthew 7:2, Luke 12:59), so Satan will be tormented for at least as long as he

tormented others – around 7,000 years – which is basically the length of all the ages since Adam (hence, ‗ages of ages‘). By contrast, the false prophet would be tormented for around 2,000 years.

See e.g., Rev. 18:6 (doubling of punishment for the whore of Babylon). Neither Satan nor the false prophet tormented anyone for infinity, nor will the Father sadistically torment anyone for

infinity. For additional scriptural citations, please see Thinking Logically About The False

Doctrine Of An Everlasting Hell, by Greg Glaser. 145 Again, expect total extinguishment of the dead after they have been repaid/tormented for their sins, not everlasting hell. For scriptural citations, please see Thinking Logically About

The False Doctrine Of An Everlasting Hell, by Greg Glaser.

and our Messiah reigns as King, serving the Father. (Rev. 21:1-7; Isaiah 65:17-25).146 The City of Jerusalem is described as the bride, and she is very beautiful. (Rev. 21:9-21).

Here, people walk in the light of the Father, while our Messiah (the Good Shepherd) holds the candle. (Rev. 21:22-27).147 Our Father honors His covenants, so life on the new

earth is blessed – the chosen freely enjoy the streaming water of life, and upon it, the tree of life giving good fruit. Rev. 22:1-17.

IV. Key Bible Passages In Understanding the Book of Daniel

First, we may need to abandon the assumption that the Daniel timelines can even be calculated by us. See, Daniel 12:7-10, ―And I hear the man enrobed in linen above the waters of the river; and he lifts his right and his left to the heavens and oaths by him who

lives eternally, For a season, seasons, and an half — at the finishing of the scattering of the hand of the holy people all these finish. And I hear, but I discern not: and I say, O my

146 Based on biblical patterns, I‘ll venture this event might happen in the year 3030, which

would be seven years after Satan is cast into the lake of fire.

147 It has been translated that this time period is the English word ‗eternal,‘ which means

outside the time dimension. The word does not mean everlasting (perpetually continuing time dimension). Interestingly, even the English word ‗eternal‘ may be an inaccurate translation, as

the word ―age‖ is often a superior translation in context: olam (Hebrew), alma (Aramaic), and aion (Greek). For an in depth study, see The Greek Word Aion – Aionios, by John Hanson.

A couple examples: Daniel 7:18 (―sovereigndom eternally — even eternally and eternally‖) and Isaiah 65:17-23 describing the ages of people in the new heaven and new earth:

―For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former are neither remembered nor ascend into the heart. But rejoice and twirl eternally in what I create: for behold, I create Yeru

Shalem a twirling, and her people a joy: and I twirl in Yeru Shalem and rejoice in my people: an d neither is the voice of weeping heard in her any more, nor the voice of crying: nor any more a

suckling of days, nor an elder who fulfilled not his days: for the lad dies a son of a hundred years;

but the sinner a son of a hundred years abases. And they build houses, and settle them; and they plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them: they build not for another to settle; they plant not for

another to eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and my chosen waste away the work of their hands. They neither labor in vain nor birth for terror; for they are the seed of the

blessed of Yah Veh, and their offspring with them.‖

Page 52: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Adonay, what is the end of these? And he says, Go your way, Dani El: for the words are closed and sealed until the

time of the end: many purify themselves and whiten and refine; and the wicked do wickedly: and no one of the

wicked discerns; and the enwisened discern comprehendingly.‖

Scholars often teach that most of the Book of Daniel was fulfilled in the past and is not relevant to today. I

contend otherwise - all of the bible is relevant to today, even if some passages in context serve only as typologies, foreshadowed examples, repeated examples, correlations, etc. Prophetic history appears to be repeating itself like

clockwork before our eyes today. Preterism, futurism, historicism – too frequently these terms are used to engage thinkers in a false hermeneutics

debate, where one thinker claims his theory is absolutely right in all instances and the other theories are absolutely wrong. In my opinion, each of these theories of interpretation generally have something valuable to

offer. They compliment one another, just as individual verses within the Book of Daniel compliment one another.

A. Placing the 1,260 and 1,290 Days - The Tribulation Begins With The

Turning Aside Of The Messiah By Building A 3rd Temple, Not By Stopping

Sacrifices At The 3rd Temple_______________________________________

1,260 days (42 months) are referenced in Daniel 7:25, Daniel 12:7, Rev. 11:2,

Rev. 12:6, Rev. 12:14, and Rev. 13:5. And 1,290 days (43 months) comes from Daniel 12:11.

Rev. 11:2 shows 42 months of trampling the city while the witnesses preach, which is the first half of the tribulation.148 Only after these two witnesses finish their

testimony does the living being/beast (Revived Roman Empire) ascend from the sea. Rev. 11:7. Then this beast has an additional 42 months after the little horn is brought back to life by Satan. Rev. 13:5. In these 42 months the work of the beast of the sea

includes the events of Rev. 13:6–18 blasphemy and abomination of desolation at the temple,149 conquering Israel, controlling all nations, implementing mark of the beast and

slavery of mankind with the help of the living beast of the land (Catholic Church). This is also a time when the 144,000 are gathered (Rev. 14:1-6) and the hour of judgment comes (Rev. 14:7), whereby the seven vials are poured out on humanity (Rev. 16) and Babylon

148 Rev. 11:1-2, ―Rise and measure the nave of God, and the sacrifice altar and those

worshipping therein and the dwelling inside of the nave eject outside and measure it not: because

it is given to the peoples: and they trample the holy city forty—two months.‖ 149 We can use the gospel records to identify the opening of the 6 th seal as sometime after the ―sign of the foul desolation worded by Daniel the prophet.‖ See Matthew Ch. 24, Luke Ch. 21,

and Mark Ch. 13.

(Rome) falls (Rev. 14:8).150

Based on this timeline, we see Daniel 11:31 harmonizes with Daniel 12:11-12 and Rev. 11:1-2. Scholars have always been

divided on the spiritual and literal meaning of these passages in Daniel, in particular because of four uncertain Hebrew word translations – hatamid, tamid, rum, and sur.151

Daniel 11:31 translations:

KJV translation SPV translation Herb Jahn’s translation

―And arms shall stand on

his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of

strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the

abomination that maketh desolate.‖152

―And forces from him will

arise and profane the sanctuary, the fortress. And

they will take away the continuity and will set up the abomination is causing

desolation.

―And arms stand up for him

and profane the holies of the stronghold and turn

aside the continual; and they give the abomination that desolates.‖

150 Recall that in the Book of Exodus, the Pharaoh was allowed to retain power during the entire time YHVH brought the ten plagues upon Egypt. This likely foreshadows how the seven

vials of judgment will permeate the reign of the living beast of the land during the 42 month-period after the death of the two witnesses.

151 For in-depth studies of these Hebrew word meanings in the Book of Daniel, see www.spvbible.org/miscellaneous. In particular, this SPV author makes an interesting case that

tamid is used frequently in the bible to convey problems with the continual exaltation of someone over the Father through ritual and/or blasphemy. See also, Is. 65:2-3 ("a people provoke Me to

anger continually [tamid] who sacrifice in gardens and burn incense on altars of brick").

Miqdash is the word used in verse 11: "and the place of his sanctuary was cast down".

Qodesh is the word used in verses 13 and 14: "until when the vision...to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled"; "unto 2300 days, then shall the sanctuary be cleansed".

The author says that Miqdash refers to both holy and unholy earthly sanctuaries

throughout the bible, but qodesh refers to holy sanctuaries on earth and in heaven. Id. at 17-18. 152 For foreshadowing effect, see SPV‘s translation of Daniel 9:26-27, ―And after the sixty-

two weeks Messiah will be cut off, and there will not be anyone for him. And the people of Prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary, and its end will be with a flood. And until

an end of war what is determined will be desolations. And he will make a covenant strong for the many for one week, and in the middle of the week he will make sacrifice and offering cease. And

upon a wing of abominations one which causes desolation will be even until a complete destruction. And what is determined will pour out upon one which causes desolation.‖

Compare Herb Jahn‘s translation of Daniel 9:26-27, ―And after sixty—two weeks Messiah is cut off; but not for himself: and the people of the eminent who comes ruins the city and the

holies; and the end is with an overflowing; and to the end of the war desolations are appointed. And he empowers a covenant with many — one week: and in the half of the week he

shabbathizes the sacrifice and the offering; and for the wing of abominations he desolates it even until the final finish; and pours what is appointed on the desolate.‖

Daniel 12:11-12 translations:

KJV translation SPV translation Herb Jahn’s translation

―And from the time that the

daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh

desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred

and ninety days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three

hundred and five and thirty days.‖

―And from the time the

continuity has been taken away and in order to set up an abomination is causing

desolation, there will be a thousand two hundred and

ninety days. Blessed is he who waits and arrives at a thousand three hundred and

thirty-five days.‖

―And from the time they

turn aside the continual and give the abomination that desolates is a thousand two

hundred and ninety days. Blithesome — he who

awaits and touches the thousand three hundred and thirty—five days.‖

According to my research, the Book of Daniel reads consistently with the Book of Revelation so long as we recognize the Messiah is the savior and that animal sacrifices in a new temple will not be holy in this age.153

Many scholars claim Daniel 12:11 refers to a ceasing of sacrifices. But I‘ll

venture a better reading (literal and spiritual) is that the Messiah is the continual, not the sacrifices. The ―turning aside‖ of the Messiah would therefore be the building of the temple and starting of the sacrifices in 2012, not the ending of the

sacrifices in 2016 by Satan. This fits a 7-year timeline and also fits the spiritual premise of the new covenant in the bible - the Messiah

said he desires mercy and not sacrifice (Matthew 12:7) and that his body is the temple rather than any sacrifice sanctuary (John 2:18-22; Mark 15:37-38, Matthew 26:26, Matthew 27:50-51, Luke

23:44-46).154 In like manner of foreshadowing, Daniel 9:27 would refer to Christ‘s covenant, not an antichrist peace treaty.

So, when both the evil and misguided world powers build a new temple and start

sacrifices, we see they are beginning the first part of the tribulation of 1260 days (turning

aside the Messiah). Then as we do the calculation required by Daniel 12:11, we add 30 days until we see Satan ―give the abomination that desolates.‖155 So the 1,260 days of

Daniel 12:7 are the first part of the 1290 days total of Daniel 12:11. Therefore, Daniel 12:11 marks 1,290 days from the beginning of the 7-year tribulation until approximately the mid-point (when the abomination of desolation is set-up 30 days after the 1,260

153 This is an important point from a spiritual perspective because it tests a Christian‘s ability

to know the difference between the Messiah and an animal sacrifice. Satan stands to benefit from the confusion, since he plans to crown his antichrist on the Temple Mount in relation to the

timing of sacrifices at the Temple Mount.

154 See also, Rev. 7:15, Rev. 11:1, Rev. 11:19 and other passages in Revelation referring to the

nave in the heavens. 155 Daniel 12:11, ―And from the time they turn aside the continual and give the abomination that desolates is a thousand two hundred and ninety days.‖

days), and this still harmonizes with a 7-year timeline because now we can enter the great tribulation within the seventh seal, which by one interpretation is expected to last at least

another 1,260 days (Daniel 7:25-26, Daniel 12:7, Rev. 12:4, Rev. 13:5-18) but no more than 1,335 days. (See, Daniel 12:12).156

B. 2,300 evening mornings – Daniel 8:14 Means The Triumph of the Messiah

in Jerusalem After the Second Coming, Not the Starting of Sacrifices in the 3rd Temple.__________________________________________________

Daniel 8:13-14 translations:

KJV translation SPV translation Herb Jahn’s translation

―Then I heard one saint

speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long

shall be the vision concerning the daily

sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary

and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said

unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be

cleansed.‖

―Then I heard one holy one

speaking, and another holy one said to that certain one who had spoken, ‗Until

when will be the vision: the continuity and the

transgression are causing desolation, giving both sanctuary and host a

trampling?‘ And he said to me, ‗Until two thousand

three hundred evening-morning. Then sanctuary will be put right.‘‖

―And I heard a holy one

speaking, and a holy one says to such a one who speaks, How long ere the

vision of the continual, and the rebellion of desolating,

gives both the holies and the host a trampling? And he says to me, Until two

thousand and three hundred evening mornings; then the

holies is justified.‖

Here is another passage subject to different interpretations depending on the

translation of ―hattamid‖ and ―tamid,‖ and what it means for the sanctuary to be cleansed. To the extent the Messiah is the temple rather than any sacrifice sanctuary, 157 then the

temple cleansing can be expected to occur only after the judgment and great tribulation. If the 2,300 day clock begins ticking upon the ―transgression of desolation,‖ and

we count 1,290 days for the great tribulation according to Daniel 12:11, then the cleansing of the sanctuary occurs 1,010 days after the Messiah returns to earth and

conquers Satan. (2,300 – 1,290 = 1,010).158

156 Or alternatively, the timeline still works if the 1,335 days are in succession with the first

1,290 days of tribulation, such that there is some event occurring 45 days after the abomination of desolation that causes some to be blithesome. Perhaps this is referring to a rapture. See, Daniel

12:1 (―and there becomes a time of tribulation, such as never became since there was a goyim until

that time: and at that time your people escape – every one found inscribed in the scroll.‖) Are these the 144,000 virgins mentioned in Rev. 14:1-7 who wear white robes and walk with the

Messiah before the seventh seal? For analysis on a possible rapture, see section XV. 157 See, John 2:18-22; Mark 15:37-38, Matthew 26:26, Matthew 27:50-51, Luke 23:44-46.

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 55 | P a g e

Alternatively, if we count 1,260 days (i.e., Rev. 13:5-8) rather than 1,290 days,

then the sanctuary is cleansed 1,040 days after the Messiah prevails over Satan. Either way, the timeline ends with a meaningful number, which is a useful trail marker.

In any case, after Daniel 8:13-14 the chronology

ends, and then Daniel begins the explanation of his vision.

At Daniel 8:19, we learn that this description leads to the end of the age, ―I have you know what becomes in the last end of

the rage at the season of the end.‖159 For an insightful report on symbolism, numerology,

and gematria employed in the periods stated in the Book of Daniel, see The Wise Shall Understand, by Charles Huntley

Clever. Even when researchers misinterpret time periods, we can often still succeed in highlighting useful typologies and foreshadowed events. And for some additional analyses

of Daniel‘s timelines:

V. Revelation 12 Eagle

In Revelation 12:13-17, we see that once Satan is cast upon the earth in the year

2016, he chases certain of the Messiah‘s followers, who go to a sheltered place in the

wilderness: ―And when the dragon sees he is cast upon the earth he

pursues the woman who birthed the male: and the woman is given two wings of a great eagle to fly her to the desolation — to her place

to be nourished there for a season and seasons and a half season from the face of the serpent. And the serpent casts from his mouth after the woman water as a stream that the water work to carry her

away: and the earth helps the woman and the earth opens its mouth and swallows the stream that the dragon cast from his mouth. And

158 Notably, the gematria value for 1,010 is connected to the priesthood legacy of Melchizedek. Bible Wheel Database.

159 Keep in mind the interesting translation from the SPV authors that Miqdash is the chosen

word in Daniel 8:11, whereas Qodesh is the chosen word in Daniel 8:13-14. See discussion above.

Page 57: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 56 | P a g e

the dragon rages upon the woman and goes to work battle with the rest of her seed who guard the misvoth of God and

have the witness of Yah Shua.‖

Many who abide in the word and place faith in our Father pray to know the location of this sheltered place, as Revelation 12 advises that the Messiah‘s people will fly there

on the wings of a great eagle. Certain parts of the Negev desert in Jordan (Edom, Moab, and Ammon)160 would be a fine location:

It‘s desert wilderness (think Exodus), with a history of being a place of refuge for

a test of faith161

It‘s actually shaped like an eagle, and if you were in Jerusalem, these mountains may be the only ones to which you would be able to flee quickly. (See, Messiah‘s

instructions to those in Israel to flee to the mountains upon the abomination of desolation: Mark 13:14, Matthew 24:15; Luke 21:20-21).

VI. Additional Calculations Supporting The 2012 – 2020 Timeline

A. The Importance of Israel in 1950 through the Number 70: 1950 + 70 = 2020____________________________________________________________

The connection between multiples of seven and prophecies about Israel is well documented in the bible.162 163

160 See e.g., Daniel 11:41 (―…and these escape from his hand: Edom and Moab and the first of the sons of Ammon…‖) Matthew 24:38 also appears to be a reference to the protection of the

Negev eagle to anticipate the coming of the Messiah. For more information, see Jordanian Topography is the Revelation Eagle , by Jane Marchant.

161 Tribulation can mean affliction, test, or trial (before judgment). For scriptural references,

see The Doctrine of the Tribulation, by J. Hampton Keathley.

162 See e.g., Daniel 9:24-27; Lev.23:42, Genesis 10:1-32, Exodus 24:1, Luke 10:1 Gen. 7:4; Gen.

8:10; Gen. 21:28; Ex. 23:15; Ex. 37:23; Judges 16:13; Matthew 15:34; Mark 12:20; Luke 8:2; In Revelation, the seven churches and seven spirits: 1:4 - seven golden candlesticks: 1:12 - seven

stars: 1:16 - seven angels: 1:20 - seven lamps: 4:5 - seven seals: 5:5 - seven horns and seven eyes: 5:6 - seven trumpets: 8:2 - seven thunders: 10:3 - seven heads and seven crowns: 12:3 - seven

Page 58: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Although the year 1948 is popularly recognized as the

year Israel was reestablished as a nation in the eyes of international politics,164 it wasn‘t until 1949 that Israel secured

the borders,165 and 1950 was even more significant - on January 4, 1950, Israel established its sovereignty by defying U.N. resolutions and declaring Jerusalem its national capitol, and even

the spiritual capitol of the world.166 Then on July 5, 1950, Israel passed the Law of Return, providing that "Every Jew has the

right to immigrate to this country."167 Why is 1950 important? 1950 + 70 = 2020. Even still, a 1948 or 1949 date works

equally well for our timeline above, as it symbolizes finality for the judgment and destruction of corrupted Jerusalem and the unholy temple: 1949 + 70 = 2019 ; or 1948 +

70 = 2018.

B. Using Newton‟s Methodology To Support 2020

Isaac Newton devoted much of his life and career to studying biblical prophecy, but was very reluctant to make

specific date predictions for the return of the Messiah. However, near the end of his life, he offered a specific date prediction – that the Messiah would not return before the year

2060. Newton simply took the date 800 (because it was when Charlemagne was crowned king of Roman Empire) and then he

plagues: 15:1 - seven golden vials: 15:7 - seven mountains: 17:9 - seven kings: 17:10. Jerusalem fell

in 70 A.D., Jubilee in 7x7. Seventy elders are mentioned (Ex. 24:1, 9 ). Messiah sent out the seventy (Luke 10:1-17). Seventy years are specified as the length of exile (Jer. 25:12, 29:10; Dan. 9: 2). The

Messianic kingdom was to be inaugurated after a period of seventy weeks of years had passed

(Dan. 9:24). See also, Science Proves the Bible, by Garrett Felender; 777 – God‘s Numerical Design in Creation and Hiss Word, by Don Stanton.

163 For an interesting typology foreshadowing the end of this age, see Zechariah 1:12, ―And

the angel of Yah Veh answers and says, O Yah Veh Sabaoth, how long mercy you not Yeru Shalem and the cities of Yah Hudah, against whom you enraged these seventy years?‖ Based on

Zechariah 1:16-17, the answer appears to be ‗immediately,‘ because the 70 years are completed:

―So thus says Yah Veh: I return to Yeru Shalem with mercies: build my house therein — an oracle of Yah Veh Sabaoth and spread a line on Yeru Shalem: call out, saying, Thus says Yah Veh

Sabaoth: My cities scatter through good; and Yah Veh still sighs over Siyon, and still chooses Yeru Shalem.‖ Following these passages in Chapter 1, we see Zechariah refer to a judgment, the

rebuilding of Jerusalem, and forgiveness of sins. (Zechariah Chapters 2 -6). 164 The Return of Israel…May 14, 1948, by Alpha News Daily.

166 The proclamation came from Prime Minister David Ben Gurion.

167 This was accomplished through the Israeli Legislature.

added 1,260 years.168

However, we can improve on Newton‘s calculations - when we combine the numbers in Revelation together, just as they are logically combined in the scripture, we

find these important dates:

2020 – 1260 – 1260 = 501 B.C.

o 501 BC: Rome creates the office of supreme dictator, Magister

Populi (Master of the People).

2019 - 1290 – 1335 = 607 B.C.

o 607 B.C. (removal of the daily sacrifice at the temple) + 1290 =

684 A.D. (construction of the Dome of the Rock)169

2016 – 1290 – 1260 = 535 B.C.

a. 535 BC: The biblical prophet Daniel receives his angelic visitor

b. Other notable events around 535 B.C. that may have actually occurred (even in part) in 535 B.C.:

i. 539- 536 BC: Babylon is conquered and Jewish people

return to Jerusalem and begin temple rebuilding ii. 534 BC: Lucius Tarquinius Superbus becomes the 7th King

of Rome

C. Evidentiary and Scriptural Basis for Theory That “Aliens” and “Angels” Arrive in 2012, Along With the Two Witnesses of Revelation Chapter 11

1) Mt. Hermon‟s Coordinates

As set forth above in section II.B, the geographical

coordinates of Mt. Hermon (where aliens and/or angels

descended in the past) point to 2012.

2) Stars

Rev. 12:4 suggests that 1/3 of the stars (―kaukba‖) of the

heavens will be cast to earth at least 1,260 days before the dragon

168 The 1,260 comes from Daniel 7:25, Daniel 12:7, Rev. 11:2, Rev. 12:6, Rev. 12:14, and Rev.

13:5. 169 The Time of the Resurrection , by David M. Rogers.

Page 60: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 59 | P a g e

is cast to earth with his angels after the battle in the heavens. Does the latter event coincide (even in part) with the rise of the Rev. 13 beast from the sea?

o In Rev 1:20 we are expressly told that

kaukba (star) can represent angels. And kaukba is the same word used in each of the three gospels referring to the time

before the second-coming of the Messiah - Mark 13:25, Matthew 24:29, and Luke

21:25. And kaukba is also used in Rev. 2:1, Rev. 2:28, Rev. 3:8, Rev. 6:13, Rev. 8:10-12, Rev. 9:1, Rev. 12:1, Rev. 12:4,

and Rev. 22:16.

o Moreover, the Daniel 10:8 translation suggests that the little horn army will be trampling ―stars‖ before the abomination of desolation. Might these stars be the angels referenced in Rev. 12:4?

3) Inhabitants of the Earth

Note that Rev. 11:10 is talking about the

―inhabitants of the earth‖ rejoicing over the

death of the witnesses. Since the phrase ‗sons of humanity‘ is generally used to indicate humans

exclusively, then Rev. 11:10 may suggest the ‗inhabitants‘ include aliens.

If the two witnesses arrive in 2012 around the same time as the first four seals,170 then that means fire will be

descending from the heavens to eradicate their enemies at some point between 2012-2016, not to mention all the plagues. So, that‘s a fairly supernatural world, where aliens may have already made contact (which

would explain how the witnesses could be seen as aliens as well, and therefore their message (of repentance and heavenly judgment) could be so

easily rejected by people not knowing where to find answers).

4) Trampling Stars

Depending on the interpretation, Daniel 8:8-10 may suggest that the

170 As described below in this section, my research suggests the two witnesses will arrive

during the second seal.

Page 61: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 60 | P a g e

little horn (who arises from the buck of the doe goats; see section XVII.3) will be killing fallen angels (―fells some of the host and of the stars to the earth, and tramples them‖). 171

Daniel 8:24 is part of the discernment of Daniel‘s vision, ―and his force is mighty — and not by his own force: and he ruins marvelously and prospers and works; and ruins the

mighty and the people of the holy one.‖

o It appears the correlative phrase is ―ruins the mighty,‖ which matches

―fells some of the host and of the stars to the earth and tramples them.‖ The Hebrew word translated ―ruin‖ is ―shâchath.‖ See, Hebrew

Lexicon, by Bible Tools. However, the Hebrew word for ―mighty‖ is ‛âtsûm (or `atsuwm), which as far as my research shows has not been used to describe angels or aliens in scripture. See, Hebrew Lexicon, by

Bible Tools.

5) Iron Mixed With Clay

As Chuck Missler described, ―The Final World Empire

described is expressed in Daniel Chapter 2 with the idiom of ‗iron mixed with clay.‘ … Daniel 2:43: ‗And whereas thou sawest iron

mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.‘ Just what (or who) are ―mingling with the seed of men?‖

Who are these non-seed? It staggers the mind to contemplate the potential significance of Daniel‘s passage and its implications for the

future global governance. Could this be a hint of a return to the mischief of Genesis 6? Are ‗aliens‘ and their hybrid offspring part of the political makeup of this emergent world empire?‖172

6) Tracking the Seven Seals In Revelation Chapter 12

To the extent Rev. 12 tracks the seven seals,173 then by deduction we might

conclude that 1/3 of the angels of the heavens will arrive on earth in 2012 with the opening of the second seal.

o 1st seal correlation

171 Stars = kowkab or kôkâb. Sometimes the context suggests celestial bodies (suns, planets, etc), but sometimes it suggests angels or aliens. See e.g., Judges 5:20, Isaiah 47:13. A Commentary

on Daniel 8, by Eugene Shubert. Hebrew Lexicon, by Bible Tools. And for scriptural comparisons of the words stars and host, see The Hosts of Heaven, by Guy Malone.

172 Daniel‘s 70 Weeks – Supplemental Notes, by Chuck Missler. See also, The Return of the Nephilim?, by Chuck Missler.

173 Revelation 12 also symbolizes the birth and death of Christ approximately two millennia

ago.

Page 62: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 61 | P a g e

Recall the discussion above in section III regarding the

2012 Olympics and the white horse of the first seal. In addition to those corollaries, a wreath (―kelila‖) is

mentioned at both Rev. 6:2 and Rev. 12:1. And the woman‘s three burdens (shouting, travailing and

tormenting) in Rev. 12:2 seem to oppose the three benefits of the white horse in triumphing as it‘s stated three times in Rev. 6:2.

The first horse mentioned in Rev. 6:1 would naturally

correlate with the first sign in Rev. 12:1.

o Symbolically, the woman in 12:1 appears to

represents our Father‘s true Israel (―who guard the misvoth of God and have the witness of Yah

Shua‖).174 And the rider in Rev. 6:1 may represent the counterfeit of British-Israelism, which is based on race claims, false self-

righteousness, and conjecture.

o 2nd seal correlation

Red horse of Rev. 6:4 seems to

correlate with the red dragon of Rev. 12:3.

The red horse‘s power to take peace

(―shalom‖) from the earth (Rev. 6:4)

appears to correlate with the red dragon casting a third of the stars to

the earth and positioning himself to rage upon the woman in Rev. 12:3-4.

The second horse of the Apocalypse would naturally correlate with the second sign in Rev. 12:3

o 3rd seal correlation

The plague of apportionment of food in Rev. 6:6 may be counterbalanced by the

nourishment of the woman in the

174 See, Rev. 12:17.

Prince William at the wreath laying ceremony for the tomb of

the unknown warrior.

Page 63: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 62 | P a g e

wilderness for 1,260 days in Rev. 12:5-6.175

This would also appear to match Daniel‘s timeline, where the holy city is trampled for 1,260 days.

o An argument could be made that perhaps now

we‘re also correlated with Rev. 13, which also states a 42 month period (during the reign of the living beast of the sea).

The scepter of iron in the hand of the son in Rev. 12:5 appears

to correlate against the balance in the hand of the black horse rider in Rev. 6:5.

o 4th seal correlation

The events of Rev. 12:7-9 (battle in the heavens and dragon and his angels cast to the earth) seems to correlate with the events of Rev. 6:8 (rider named death and sheol follows him;

power over ¼ of the earth to slaughter by sword, famine, death, and living beings of the earth).

It seems notable that sheol follows death in the fourth seal, and assisting in the slaughter are the ―hayuta‖ or

living beings of the earth. Hayuta often refers to angels in the Book of Revelation. The bible generally uses the

word ‗man‘ when referring to humans.

Alternative thesis: The events of Rev 12:7-17 (battle in the

heavens; dragon and his angels cast to the earth, dragon battling with the rest of the woman‘s seed) may correlate to the

events of Rev 6:8 (rider named death and sheol follows him; power over ¼ of the earth to slaughter by sword, famine, death, and living beings of the earth).

There are two overlaps here that are uncertain:

o Are the 1,260 days of Rev. 12:6 the same days

as the ―season, seasons, and half a season‖ in Rev. 12:14?176 Notably, ―a time and times and

175 The barley in Rev. 6 :6 may subtly correspond to the male son in Rev. 12:5 who is ―seized

unto God and His throne.‖ For references in the old testament to barley, see e.g., The Barley Harvest, by Stephen Jones. 176 See also this excerpt from The Divine Calendar, by Ezra (Jeff) Meiliken: (―There has been much speculation for centuries about what was meant in the visions of Daniel in the Book of

Daniel, and many scholars have noted that in its original Hebrew it can be computed as one year, two years, and half a year, or 42 months, but we‘re going to ignore that and address another

Page 64: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 63 | P a g e

the dividing of time‖ is mentioned in Daniel 7:25.

o Perhaps Rev. 12:14 (―for a season and seasons

and a half season‖) is literal, such that all we know is that the woman in the Negev is there for at least 3 ½ seasons (approximately 10 months).

o Is the fall of the stars in Rev. 12:4 the same fall

of the angels as Rev. 12:9?

o 5th seal correlation

Rev. 12:10-14 (discussion in heaven of

the tribulation of the elect, woman flees to desolation from the dragon for ―seasons‖) appears to correlate to Rev.

6:9-11 (discussion in heaven of the tribulation of the elect, and advice to

rest for a ―season‖ until the remaining elect join them).

o 6th seal correlation

Rev. 12:12-17 (woe to the earth as Satan descends to the earth and ―sees he is cast upon the earth,‖ and he chases after the woman to kill her but when he is unable he goes after the rest

of her children) may correlate to Rev. 6:12 – 7:17 (visual signs in the sun and

moon as the stars of the heavens fall to the earth; sky rolls up like a scroll and all people are frightened; the Father‘s

angels mark the elect for safety; discussion of those who die in the great

tribulation after accepting the Messiah).

o 7th seal correlation

aspect of the vision here. In Daniel 12:7 Daniel is describing his vision about the end of days and he relates ‗Then I heard a man dressed in linen, who was above the water of the river, swear by

the Ever‐ Living One as he lifted his right hand and his left hand to heaven: For a time, times, and

half a time… [these things shall be fulfilled].‘ The specific verse ‗For a time, times, and half a time‘ doesn‘t exactly translate from its original Hebrew this way, but be that as it may, when we

utilize simple gematria to decipher the verse, we see that the sum of the numerical value of the letters in the verse up to the final letter of the verse, which is the letter yud and which has the

value of 10, is 424, Mashiach Ben David, the Messiah.‖)

Page 65: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 64 | P a g e

Rev. 13 appears to represent the beginning of the correlation with the seventh seal beginning at Rev. 8.

7) The Book of Zechariah

Symbolism from the Book of Zechariah

seems to place the two olives and menorah177 (Zech 4:2) during the second seal (red horse of war) and before the third seal (black horse of weights and

measures). This placement is accomplished by typological deduction, as terminology in Zechariah

Chapters 1-8 appears to correlate to key verses from the Book of Revelation and Book of Daniel, including:

Red and white horses - Zech. 1:8.

o Compare the red and white horses of Rev. 6:2-4. o The man on the red horse in Zech. 1:7-8 is said to be riding in the

second year of Daryavesh.

What is particularly notable about Daryavesh (Darius I) is that the second temple was completed during his reign. See,

The Ninth Chapter of Daniyyel, by Mordochai ben-Tziyyon (―…the Second Temple building was completed in Darius I's 6th year, i.e. 516BCE − exactly 70 years after the

destruction of the First Temple by Nebuchadnezzar in 586BCE.‖). See also, The Building of the Second Temple,

by J. Stafford Wright.

Seventy years – Zech. 1:12

o Compare seventy years of Daniel 9:2

Four horns – Zech. 1:18 (―These are the horns that winnow Yah Hudah, Yisra El, and Yeru Shalem.‖)

o Compare the four horns in the Book of Daniel

Two-horned ram and one horned goat and little horn – Dan. 8:3-12, 8:20-25. See also, Dan. 7:7-11, 7:20-24 with regard

to ten horns and the little horn. o Compare the four horns in the Book of Revelation

―…four horns of the sacrifice altar of gold in front of God.‖

This is mentioned with the sixth trumpet, when the four angels connected to the Euphrates are released. Rev. 9:13-

14.

See also, the ten horns in Rev. 12:3, 13:1, 17:3, 17:7, 17:12, 17:16, and two horns in Rev. 13:11.

177 Olives and menorah are the same terms that describe the two witnesses in Revelation 11.

Page 66: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 65 | P a g e

o Zechariah Chapter 1 suggests the red horse represents a time of war in Jerusalem, and the beginning of horns that winnow away

through Israel.

Measuring line – Zech. 2:1 o Compare the measuring reed in Rev. 11:1

Four winds of the heavens– Zech. 2:6-7 (―Ho, ho, and flee from the land of the north — an oracle of Yah Veh for I spread you as the four winds of

the heavens — an oracle of Yah Veh. Rescue yourself, Ho, Siyon, who settles with the daughter of Babel.‖)

o Compare ―the four winds of the heavens‖ from Dan. 8:8-9 in

reference to a vision of four as the little horn ―greatens exceedingly toward the south and toward the rising and toward the splendor.‖

Yah Shua and Satan – Zech. 3:1 (―And he

shows me Yah Shua the great priest

standing at the face of the angel of Yah Veh; and Satan standing at his right to

oppose him.‖) Seven eyes – Zech. 3:9

Menorah with a bowl on the top of it and

seven lamps on it and seven tubes to the seven lamps on the top: and two olives by it – Zech. 4:2 (see also explanation at Zech. 4:11-14 - ―These are the two

sons of oil standing by the Adonay of the whole earth.‖) o Compare:

―[T]hese are the two olives and the two menorah standing in front of Lord of the earth.‖ Rev. 11:4

o Notably, oil is also mentioned in the third seal at Rev. 6:6.

Tin weight178 in the hand of Zerub Babel – Zech. 4:10

o Compare the balance in the hand of the rider of the third seal of Revelation.

o Zerubbabel led the first band of Jews, numbering 42,360, who

returned from the Babylonian Captivity in the first year of Cyrus, King of Persia (Ezra) (538 BC). Zerubbabel also laid the

foundation of the Second Temple in Jerusalem the next year.

Flying roll – Zech. 5:2

178 Tin weight comes from the Hebrew word ―‘eben‖ meaning stone or weight, which has

been used in limited instances in the bible in terms of ‗weights and measures‘: 2 Samuel 14:26, Micah 6:11, Proverbs 11:1, Proverbs 16:11, Proverbs 20:10, Proverbs 20:23. Read more in the

Hebrew Lexicon for ‗eben, by Bible Tools.

Ephah – Zech. 5:5

8) Logical Placement of the Two Witnesses

o As in a trial (before judgment),

two witnesses are required to establish a fact (Deu. 17:6, John

8:17, 2 Cor. 13:1). So it would make sense to time the two witnesses before the ―time to

judge the dead.‖ (Rev. 11:18; compare Rev. 10)

o On some level, this is a fairly

logical argument if we assume

the terminology is correct, ―The plagues that are prophesied or called forth by the two witnesses have

to be listed somewhere in Revelation. The two prophets are certainly not causing the Seal events to occur since only the Lamb is worthy to loose the seals. They are certainly not causing the Bowl Events since

those events are called the wrath of God, not the wrath of man. Since those events are ruled out as being caused by the two prophets the only

other events termed plagues that are recorded in Revelation, and that could possibly be loosed by the two witnesses, are the Trumpets events.‖ http://www.truthkeepers.com/chapter_six.htm

9) Alternative Theories

o Aliens arrive with the fourth seal

o Aliens arrive with the sixth seal

Page 69: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 68 | P a g e

The third and fourth trumpets may represent the fall of Satan and (1/3?) of his angels/stars. Indeed, the prelude to the fifth trumpet is woe to the earth because of the

remaining trumpets. Regarding ―wormwood‖ at Rev 8:11, notice the interesting foreshadowing of embittered waters in Proverbs 5.

However, it seems more likely that the angel who falls to the earth with the fifth

trumpet is Satan, who then releases the abyss locusts.

If the two witnesses are standing in front of the master of the earth in Rev. 11:4,

then how do they arrive in 2012 and yet Satan arrives in 2016? Perhaps Satan falls to earth earlier than 2016? Based on the analysis of trumpets 3-5 here, this would put the fall of Satan in the ballpark of 2014-2015. But then how do we reconcile the 1,260 days

in Rev. 12:6 (where the woman is nourished in her appointed place)? Maybe the tribulation starts 1-year earlier than mid-2012? It seems unlikely based on the totality of

findings in this thesis, but it is difficult to dismiss outright.

It‘s challenging to read Rev. Ch. 12. By one interpretation, the 1,260 days (in

Rev. 12:6) is describing the same period as the season and seasons and ½ season in Rev. 12:14, just from a different perspective (the earthly perspective rather than heavenly).

Here again we revisit our central theme – our goal is to watch for signs and avoid serving Satan.

VII. The Role and Deception of Aliens And Fallen Angels

As highlighted above, aliens and fallen angels

are expected to play a major role in the end-times. As

described by Little Guy In The Eye, ―Aliens (Fallen Angels) may teach they are the creators of man.

Annunaki said they genetically engineered cro-magnum man to create a slave race ―adam‖ in clay jars. Is this why YHWH spoke through Jeremiah

saying the following [at Jer. 10:11]: ‗So you shall say to them, The gods who have not made the heavens and

the earth, they shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.‘‖180 181

180 See also, ―From a far away land they came, from the end-point of Heaven do the Lord and his weapons of wrath come to destroy the whole Earth. Therefore will I agitate the Hea ven

and Earth shall be shaken out of its place. When the Lord of Hosts shall be crossing, the day of his burning wrath.‖ Isaiah 13:1. For an introduction to the question/topic of demons masquerading

as aliens, see e.g., Ghosts (Demons), by Today Perhaps.

181 Regarding Planet X or Planet Nibiru, Little Guy In The Eye reports, ―To have the sort of

global destructive power that Nibiru unleashed without actually making contact with Tiamat, then we are looking at a planetary size of gas giant proportions at the very least. The added

descriptions of the lightning strikes and enveloping corona point to a mini-sun, or dark star. What is totally clear is that this monstrous sized planet is not a terrestrial-type world. If it were,

Page 70: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 69 | P a g e

Isaiah 26:19-21182 appears to correlate to the resurrection of the dead discussed in

either Revelation 11:18 (pre-millennial reign)183 or Revelation 20:12 (post-millennial reign).184

The use of the word rapha is a notable feature of Isaiah 26:19-21, since it is a word in scripture used only in reference to the descendants of the nephilim from Genesis 6, those rebel angels who bred with earth women that were chained during the flood of Noah. See e.g., The End Time Delusion, by David Flynn.

(Recall that in Matthew 24:38-39 the Messiah warned, ―For as it has been ere the flood — eating and drinking and taking women and giving men until the day Nuh

entered the ark — and not knowing until the flood came and took them all: thus

also be the parousia of the Son of humanity.‖) The Book of Enoch (e.g., Chapter 12) also refers to the chaining of the rebel ‗watchers‘ who fornicated with earth

women and were sinful in family and other matters.

Scripture also uses other names to describe the fallen angels and their descendents, in addition to the word Nephilim,185 such as:

Anakim – or Annunaki, race of giants, descendents of Nephilim: Num. 13:33

Emim - the proud deserters, terrors, race of giants: Gen. 14:5

then its size compared to Tiamat it would be like the Moon compared to the Earth. No one could

seriously imply that a body the size of the Moon would destroy the Earth during a close passage,

without even touching it. Nibiru must be very considerably larger than Tiamat, which in turn was proportionately larger than the Earth. So how does Sitchin come to the conclusion that

Nibiru is terrestrial-sized? Simply because this notion is fundamental in trying to show that humanoid beings live on Nibiru. In my opinion, this was an error of judgment. If ‗alien‘ beings

are to be found, they live on one or more of Nibiru‘s moons, not on a planet so massive that its gravitational attraction can prove so destructive. I will expand on this in later web -site additions,

but preliminary study reveals the home-world of the Annunaki to be Dilmun, whose description

implies it to be the 7th (innermost) moon of Utu (Nibiru).‖ See also, Planet X and the Sixth Seal, by Watchman Bible Study.

182 Isaiah 26:19-21, ―Your dead live; their carcase rises. Waken and shout, you who

tabernacle in the dust: for your dew is as the dew of herbs, and the land of ghosts falls. Come, my people, enter your chambers and shut your doors around you: hide yourself for a little blink until

the rage passes over. For, behold, Yah Veh comes from his place to visit on the settlers of the

earth for their perversity: and the earth exposes her blood, and no more covers her slaughtered.‖ 183 Rev. 11:18 (―time to judge the dead‖). 184 Rev. 20:12, ‖And I see the dead — great and little standing in front of the throne: and the scrolls are opened: and another scroll is opened — having judgment: and the dead are judged by

that scribed in the scrolls as to their works: and the sea gives up the dead therein and death and

Sheol give up the dead with them and they are judged one by one as to their works and death and Sheol are cast into the lake of fire — this is the second death.‖

Zuzim - the evil ones, roaming things: Gen. 14:5 (or depending on your bible translation, perhaps this word is Rephaim from the root rapha)

Zamzummims - the evil plotters: Deut. 2:20 Zophim - watchers, angels who descended, distinct from "holy watchers" aligned

with God: Num. 23. VIII. Timing and Relationship Between Revelation Chapters 8, 11, and 13

A. Revelation Chapters 8 and 11

At first glance, it might seem Rev. 11:19 and Rev. 8:7 are describing

the same event - the first trumpet of the seventh seal. 11:19 says, ―and there become lightnings and thunders and voices and fire and great hail.‖ Rev. 8:5 which is explicitly before the seventh seal that begins with ―thunders and

voices and lightnings and quakes.‖ Since voices have equated to quakes in other parts of Revelation, then all that would be left to correlate Rev. 8:5 with

Rev. 11:19 is fire and hail - the first trumpet of the seventh seal (Rev. 8:7) is fire and hail. Thus, Rev. 11:19 would correlate to Rev. 8:7, except for two problems:186

(1) the three ―woes‖ are listed in sequential order as trumpets five, six, and seven, such that trumpet six coincides with the 1,260 days of the witnesses‘ prophecy;187 and

(2) the chronology of Revelation 11 places the witnesses‘ death and resurrection immediately before the seventh trumpet at Rev. 11:15.

B. Revelation Chapters 11 and 13

Diligent researchers will notice the direct temporal link between the beginning of

Rev. 13 and the beginning of Rev. 11. This appears to be logically required because Rev 11:7 says, ―and when they complete their witness the living being ascends from the sea‖

and Rev. 13:1 says ―and I see a living being ascending from the sea.‖ So these passages appear to be discussing the same real time events – the end of the 42 months of the witness‘ testimony is caused by the emergence of the living being from the sea. (Rev.

11:2-3, 13:5). Revelation 11 describes the rise and fall of the two witnesses, and Revelation 13 describes the rise of the living being that kills the witnesses. Indeed, they

186 Indeed, Rev. 12-13 (the spiritual view) might help confirm the timeline in Rev. 6-11 (earthly view). While the abomination of desolation is only seen clearly in Rev. 13 (spiritual

view), it may actually appear by logical deduction in Rev. 8:7 and Rev. 11:18 (earthly views) as the people provoke great tribulation and judgment, ushering in the seventh seal with its seven

trumpets and seven vials. Revelation 11:18 refers to this as the time to judge the dead and to give reward to the Father‘s servants.

187 The first woe is trumpet five, from Rev. 8:13 to Rev. 9:12. The second woe is trumpet six, which goes from Rev. 9:13 to Rev 11:14. The third woe is trumpet seven, from Rev. 11:15 -19.

In similar logic (suggesting that the witnesses preach during the trumpets), Rev. 11:6

(witnesses have the power to turn water to blood) correlates with trumpet 2 at Rev. 8:8 -9.

Page 72: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 71 | P a g e

are also correlated by several forms of numerical and symbolic analysis, but just in a nutshell, the first 42 months are given to the two holy witnesses to preach repentance

from worldly injustice and apostasy, and then the next 42 months are for the two unholy living beings to rule the world through injustice and apostasy. See section III above for

more timeline analysis.

Perhaps I‘ve misinterpreted Rev. 13:1 and/or Rev. 11:7 such that these events are

not describing a present event of the living being ascending from the sea, but rather just identifying that being for purposes of describing another action.

Rev. 17:8 describes the living being preparing to ascend

from the sea rather than a being that had already ascended from

the sea. This matches the SPV translation of 13:1, ―Then I stood upon the sand of the sea, and I saw a beast coming up out of the

sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and ten crowns [were] upon his horns, and a name of blasphemy [was] upon his heads.‖

So in Rev. 13:1, the beast coming from the sea has ten horns, which (in combination with Rev. 13:3) allows us to time

the Rev. 13:1 event to Daniel 7:7 (―ten horns‖). To an extent, the number of horns also allows us to correlate the timing of Rev. 13:1 with the foreshadowing events in Rev. 12:3 (―ten horns‖). 188 Only after the Rev. 13:1 event (in

2012) will the beast change to seven horns (between 2012-2016), since the little horn uproots three horns. See, Daniel 7:8. After Daniel 7:8, we see the ―judgment is set‖ in

Daniel 7:10,189 which correlates to Rev. 14:7 that marshals in the seven vials.

Indeed, according to the interpretation in Daniel 7:21, before the ―judgment is

set,‖ the little horn makes war with the holy and prevails against them. Then the judgment is set in 7:22, ―the Ancient of days comes, and gives the pleading of the cause

to the holy of Elyon; and the appointment so happens that the holy hold the sovereigndom.‖190

188 Notably, it‘s uncertain whether Chapter 12 represents historical events that foreshadow Chapter 13, or whether they‘re parallel in some manner. In either case, it helps us place the first

42 months of Jerusalem‘s trampling from 2012-2016. As described in section VI.C, Daniel 8:8-10 suggests that the little horn (who arises from the buck of the doe goats) will be killing aliens

(―fells some of the host and of the stars to the earth, and tramples them‖).

189 Daniel 7:10 says ―scrolls‖ (Jahn) or ―books‖ (SPV) are opened (though it doesn‘t say

which scrolls) after the “judgment is set,‖ which itself comes after the little horn emerges (in place of the three fallen horns). This book or scroll may cross-reference to the angel with the script in

Rev 10:2 just before the seventh trumpet. 190 The chronology ends at Daniel 7:22, because after this, the verses are explaining what

came before (10 horns). But in this explanation, we track the chronology again (using scripture to interpret scripture). So Daniel 7:26 (―And the pleading is set‖) matches Daniel 7:22, (―and

gives the pleading of the cause‖). As in any trial, the pleading comes before the judgment. Therefore, this helps us pinpoint the 42 months described in Daniel 7:24-25: ―And the ten horns

from this sovereigndom are ten sovereigns who rise: and another rises after them — changed from the first; and he abases three sovereigns: and he utters utterances concerning the Elyon and

Page 73: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 72 | P a g e

So, based on the number of horns and the progression and translations of the

verses in Daniel and Revelation, we may deduct it‘s the changed beast that slaughters the witnesses in 2016 rather than the original beast in 2012.

Rev. 11:19 may be the great prophesied event for 2018 that shows the fulfillment

of the law.191 Rev. 14:7 describes the voice of the Rabbi giving awe of YHVH and glory

because ―the hour of judgment has come.‖ This appears to match the timeline with Rev. 11:15 marking the seventh trumpet, ―And angel seven blasts: and a voice of the Rabbi

becomes in the heavens, wording, The sovereigndoms of this eon be unto Yah Veh and his Meshiah and he reigns to the eons of the eons.‖ Then at 11:18 we cue the 24 elders stating that the time has come to judge the dead.

And in Matthew 25:31, we see the timing of when Messiah sits upon the throne of

his glory. See also, Luke 19:15 for the parable that once the Master returns, having received his kingdom, he calls his servants to be judged. So, in this chronology, Rev. 14 picks up where Rev. 11 left off. By one view, all of Revelation 13 appears to happen

within the time span of 2012-2017.

Notably, I assumed above in my primary timeline that the Rev. 11:7 beast ascends from the sea, but in actuality it may ascend from the abyss, depending on the translation. I also

assume the beast in. Rev. 11:7 matches the beast in Rev. 13:1, rather than Apollyon described in Rev. 9:1. For a discussion, see

The Two Witnesses and the Beast, by Patrick Stone. Perhaps the abyss and sea are different aspects: worldly perceived v. spiritual.

―The symbolism of the sea in Revelation seems to correspond to the abyss (Rev. 11:7; 17:8). In Revelation 17, John refers to the same beast (he has seven heads and ten

horns, and is full of names of blasphemy; 17:3, 7, 12). This time he is said to come from the abyss (17:8). This might suggest that the sea and the abyss or the bottomless pit are the same symbolic place from which the beast of Revelation 13:1 comes (on the concept

of the abyss as the abode of Satan and the demons, see Notes on Rev. 9:1). It is noteworthy that the ―many waters‖ on which the harlot Babylon sits in Revelation 17:1 is

parallel to the beast ―full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns‖ on which the woman sits (17:3). The waters on which the harlot sits are identified as

wears out the holy of Elyon; and wills to change appointments and decrees: and they are given

into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.‖ 191 Rev. 11:16-19 reads, ―And the twenty and four elders, in front of God seated upon their thrones fall upon their faces and worship God, wording, We profess you, O Yah Veh, Holder of

All, having and having been: for taking your great power and reigning. and the peoples rage and

your wrath is come: and the time to judge the dead and to give reward to your servants the prophets and to the holy and to those who awe your name — the little with the great and to

corrupt them who corrupt the earth. And the nave in the heavens opens and the ark of his own covenant is seen in his nave: and there become lightnings and thunders and voices and fire and

great hail.‖

Page 74: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 73 | P a g e

―peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues,‖ which are evidently the same as the ten horns of the beast (17:12–18)…. 13:1–2 The dragon is now seen standing on the sand

of the sea, summoning his first ally, to invest him with his power and authority. John subsequently sees a beast coming up out of the sea. The reference to the sea as the

source from which the beast comes is reminiscent of the vision from Daniel 7 in which the prophet saw the four beasts coming out of the sea (7:3). The beast coming out of the sea in Revelation 13 is described in detail later in Revelation 17, adding supplementary

information with regard to the identity of this sea monster. The physical description of the beast in John‘s vision is introduced as the various parts of its body emerge from the

water. The beast has ten horns and seven heads.” The Two Beasts, Revelation 13:1-18, Andrews University Press.

Reading Rev. 11 and 13 together is like a repetition that provides emphasis, and a confirmation through different perspectives (earthly v. heavenly; two beings from earth

v. two witnesses from heaven). It may help to consider: Rev 6-10 covers the seals from both earthly and heavenly perspectives in a consistent chronology. At the end of Rev. 10 we read ―…give time again to prophesy…‖ The beginning of Rev. 11 (referencing the

―reed in the image of a scepter‖) is telling us we need to measure/calculate. Rev 12 is a heavenly perspective of signs (like a dream). Notice the contrast between Chapter 12

(faithful woman) and Chapter 17 (whore) – the Book of Revelation is filled with these corollaries/contrasts between chapters. Some of the great dichotomies in Revelation are: (1) YHVH Elohim v. Satan Elohim, (2) Messiah Yahshua v. Antichrist Arthur, (3)

Heavenly Archangel Michael v. Angel of the Abyss Abaddon/Apollyon, (4) Jerusalem v. Rome, and (5) Temple Mount v. Vatican.

IX. Additional Resources on Messianic Prophecy

Temple building and destruction dates are stated as prophetic markers in the bible. They were very useful to identify the Messiah as the humble one who rode through the

gates of Jerusalem on a donkey in the 32nd year of his life. And they have been useful to identify the longevity of the nation of Israel, and will be instrumental in measuring out the great tribulation at the end of

this age.

X. Key Bible Passages in Understanding the Millennium From 2020 to 3020

This priestly reign described in Rev. 20:4-6 might just take place in heaven

because (a) the ―new Jerusalem‖ only arrives on the ―new earth‖ (both described in Rev.

21:1-2), (b) the Messiah is seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven (Luke 24:51),

Page 75: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 74 | P a g e

and (c) new wine doesn‘t go into old wineskins. (Matthew 9:14-17, Mark 2:18-22, Luke 5:33-39).

On the other hand, when our Messiah was resurrected in 33 AD, he came to earth

first before going to heaven. Perhaps so too will these resurrected priests spend time with the Messiah on earth. Indeed, in Daniel 12:11-12, we learn that the sanctuary will be justified 1,335 days after the abomination of desolation,

so it might make sense for our Messiah to be on earth ensuring his house is in order.

Revelation‘s chronology shows the new Jerusalem

arrives on the new earth only after Satan congregates

warriors for the Gog and Magog war on the current earth where they surround the current ―holy city of Jerusalem.‖

Rev. 20:8-9. So, if the current Jerusalem is to be holy again, it may need some priests during the 1,000 years, and perhaps Rev. 20:4-6 is identifying those priests.

Moreover, in Matthew 5:5 we read, ―Graced – the meek for they inherit the earth.‖ From this it might be deducted

that the meek will also help take stewardship of ―the holy city‖ Jerusalem on the current earth. Rev. 20:8-9. Indeed, once Satan (the present lord of the earth) has been cast

into the abyss, then logically he is no longer lord of the earth, which means (again) these meek would be in a nice position to inherit the current earth for the next 1,000 years

before the ―new earth‖ and ―new Jerusalem‖ arrive from the ―new heavens‖ after the Gog and Magog war and test of faith.

XI. Mark of the Beast

A. The Cross

According to my research, the most likely symbol to serve

as the ‗mark of the beast‘ is the cross.

Page 76: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 75 | P a g e

Among religious people, the cross is heralded as a positive symbol, even though it was used as the instrument

of death to crucify Christ, and thereafter has been used (especially by the Vatican) as the symbol of endless holy

wars and murderous inquisitions.192 Accordingly, once Satan takes his throne on the unholy rebuilt Temple Mount as prophesied (around 2016), expect countless deceived

people to line up to receive their cross tattoo. Many of the ‗Christians‘ will falsely believe they are evidencing their

devotion to the returned Messiah, when in fact they are serving Satan as prophesied. Satan twists scripture interpretations. Here, he‘ll use several bible passages that

appear to discuss bearing a cross to follow after Christ. Matthew 10:38-39, Matthew 16:24-25, Luke 9:23, Luke 14:27. However, in

these passages is Christ instructing his followers to accept Satan‘s tattoo in order to buy/sell goods, or rather to follow Christ‘s example of having such immense faith in the Father‘s plan of salvation that you‘re

willing to let people murder you before denouncing your faith?

B. Cross-Over With Other Symbols

It appears quite possible, even likely, that Satan will use several

different layers/components of symbolism for his

mark of the beast. Indeed, the mark may have a supernatural character. One of the key symbols that

Satan would likely incorporate is the hexagonal ‗star of David,‘ which has had some deep occult uses,193 not to mention serving as the often

militaristic symbol of Israel. The idea of fusing Christianity and Judaism seems to meet Satan‘s

modus operandi. An excellent site discussing all kinds of symbolic connections

(666, Zion, Saturn, Solomon and Freemasonry) can be found in the ‗End Times’ series on Little Guy In the Eye.

Another interesting analysis can be read at www.666beast.net, which discusses in

192 For additional reading on how the symbol of the cross has been abused by organized religion, see Satanic Crucifix, the Number of the Mark: 666, by Norbert Kox.

193 ―Although scholars have attempted to trace the Star of David back to King David

himself; to Rabbi Akiva and the Bar Kokhba (―son of the star‖) rebellion (135 C.E.); or to

kabbalists, especially Rabbi Isaac Luria (16th century), no Jewish literature or artifacts document this claim. Rather, all evidence suggests that the early use of the hexagram was limited to

‗practical Kabbalah,‘ that is, Jewish magic, probably dating back to the 6th century C.E. Legends connect this symbol with the ‗Seal of Solomon,‘ the magical signet ring used by King Solomon to

control demons and spirits.‖ See, Little Guy In The Eye Blog.

particular the chiastic (pattern) link between Rev. 13:18 and Rev. 17:9.194

C. Microchip

The Book of Revelation specifies that the mark of the

beast is given on the right hand or forehead and can be used to buy/sell goods in the system being implemented by the beast

powers. Accordingly, it would appear that an implantable microchip would be a fitting technology to ensure compliance with dictates.

For some insightful foreshadowing as to the reemerging

Roman Empire, it‘s notable that the company leading the way in RFID microchip technology (especially for healthcare) is Siemens, which is a corporation that absorbed an earlier corporation called Rohm (pronounced Rome). Rohm

began in the 1970s as a communications company serving primarily one client - the United States military. According to my research, the company was known for its lavish parties, including even sponsoring gladiator-style sporting events. Men like Bill Gates

and Steve Jobs were routinely found on the Rohm grounds. Even Ronald Reagan was said to be a frequent visitor. Eventually

Rohm was purchased by IBM, a company with a long history of serving militaries, including the Nazis.195 After this, the

Rohm division of IBM was sold and integrated into Siemens. Today, Siemens

serves militaries worldwide and is already implementing RFID technology in the military and healthcare fields together to

mark the human body like chattel.196

194 Rev. 13:18 (―Have wisdom here: whoever has reasoning within: reason the number of the

XII. Analyzing the Trumpets of Rev. 8-9 In Relation To The Angels of Rev. 14

A. Six Trumpets Come Before The Judgment

In Rev. 14:7, it is said the hour of judgment has come

(―Awe of God and give him glory: because the hour of his

judgment has come‖). Let‘s examine every use of ‗judge‘ or ‗judgment‘ (Aramaic = ―dan‖ and ―dina‖) throughout the Book

of Revelation:

―Until when, Lord, holy and true, judge you not,

and avenge us from the inhabitants of the earth?‖ (Rev. 6:10)

―O Yah Veh, Holder of All, having and having

been: for taking your great power and reigning. And the peoples rage and your wrath is come: and the

time to judge the dead and to give reward to your servants the prophets and to the holy and to those who awe your name — the little with the great and

to corrupt them who corrupt the earth.‖ (Rev. 11:17-18)

―And I hear the angel of the waters wording, You are just, he having and having been and holy that

you judge these: because the blood of the prophets and the holy: they have poured: and you have given

them blood to drink for they are worthy. And I hear from the sacrifice altar, wording, Yes, Yah Veh God, Holder of All, true and just are your judgments.‖ (Rev. 16:5-7)

o Note that in Rev. 11:6, the witnesses are said to have the power to turn waters into blood. And the first trumpet brings hail and fire mingled

with blood cast to earth (Rev. 8:7), and the second trumpet brings a fiery mountain cast to the sea, where 1/3 of the sea becomes blood (Rev. 8:8-9). These passages in Rev. 8 and 11 likely foreshadow the

third vial of Rev. 16:4-7.

―And one of the seven angels comes having been over the seven glass vessels and words with me, wording, Come after me — I show you the judgment of

the whore seated upon many waters with whom the sovereigns of the earth whored and intoxicated all the inhabitants of the earth from the fermented wine of her whoredom.‖ (Rev. 17:1-2). See also, Rev. 18:8-20 (e.g., ―in one

hour your judgment has come‖).

―Salvation and glory and power to our God because true and just are his judgments: because he judged the great whore who corrupted the earth in her

Page 79: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 78 | P a g e

whoredom and avenged the blood of his servants from her hand.‖ (Rev. 19:1-2).

―And I see the heavens open, and behold, a white horse: and he seated upon

him is called Trustworthy and True: and in justness he judges and wars.‖ (Rev. 19:11)

―And I see cathedras and those seated upon them and they are given judgment: and the souls of those that were cut because of the witness of Yah

Shua and because of the word of God who worshipped not the living being and not his icon and had not taken his tattoo upon between their eyes or upon

their hands — that they live and reign with the Meshiah a thousand years.‖ (Rev. 20:4)

―And I see the dead — great and little standing in front of the throne: and the scrolls are opened: and another scroll is opened — having judgment: and the

dead are judged by that scribed in the scrolls as to their works: and the sea gives up the dead therein and death and Sheol give up the dead with them and

they are judged one by one as to their works and death and Sheol are cast into the lake of fire — this is the second death.‖ (Rev. 20:12-14).

See also this reference to judgment in Daniel after the arrival of the little horn that uproots three other horns: ―I see until the thrones are hurled: and the

Ancient of days sits with robe as white snow, and the hair of his head as clean wool; his throne as a fiery flame and his wheels as flaming fire. A fiery river

flows and emerges from in front of him: a thousand thousands minister to him, and a myriad myriads rise in front of him: the judgment is set, and the scrolls are opened. I see, then, because of the voice of the great utterances the horn

utters: I see until the live being is severed and his body destroyed and given to the burning flame: the survivors of the live beings, pass their dominion away:

yet their lives are given until an appointment and time.‖) (Daniel 7:9-12) Based on the above examination, the first six

trumpets appear to come before the hour of judgment, in which case the trumpets of Rev. 8-9 would only

foreshadow Rev. 14, as Rev. 14:7 states the hour of judgment has arrived. So, Rev. 8-9 and Rev. 14 describe similar but different events:

The Lead In - 144,000 marked with the sign of

YHVH between the eyes, and references to the four living beings and the elders197 praising YHVH – Rev. 14:1-5 and Rev. 7:1-17.

197 For an interesting commentary on the identity of the 24 elders, see The Identity of the 24 Elders: A Critical Monograph on Revelation 4:4, by John P. Burke.

Page 80: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 79 | P a g e

The first trumpet brings hail and fire mingled with blood cast to earth, such that 1/3 of the trees and green herbage burns. Rev. 8:7.

o The first angel of Rev. 14:6-7 refers to evangelizing that the hour of judgment has come.

The second trumpet brings a fiery mountain cast to the sea, where 1/3 of the sea

becomes blood. Rev. 8:8-9.

o The second angel of Rev. 14:8 says that Babel the great, whose wrath watered all peoples, has fallen.

Trumpet three brings a fiery star to earth where 1/3 of the streams and fountains

become bitter, which kills much of humanity. (Rev. 8:10-11).

o The third angel of Rev. 14:9-12 says that whoever worships the beast and takes his tattoo now drinks the wrath of YHVH and is tormented in fire

and sulfur. With trumpet four we see 1/3 of the sun, moon, and stars darken, which results

in the loss of 1/3 of both day and night. An angel then warns, ―Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabitants of the earth from the voice of the shophars of the three angels

preparing to blast!‖ (Rev. 8:13). With trumpet five, a star falls from heaven and a key is given to open the abyss, and smoke ascends from the pit and the sun and the air darken from the smoke, and from the smoke, locusts come and for five

months torture (like a stinging scorpion) humans without the seal of Elohim in their foreheads. (Rev. 9:1-11; 14:9-11). Trumpet six is described in Rev. 9:13-21

– The Euphrates river is loosened, and four angels are prepared to slaughter 1/3 of humanity (possibly over the course of one year, one month, one day, and one hour).198 Horses with fiery and sulphorous breastplates, with the heads of lions

and tails like serpents, slaughter 1/3 of humanity with the fire and smoke and

sulphur coming from their mouths. The seventh trumpet of Rev. 11:15-19 describes ―lightnings and thunders and

voices and fire and great hail.‖ o At this point in Chapter 14, it is

difficult to decipher the number of angels, but it appears that several angels will now be

harvesting the earth with a sickle, as if they were harvesting grapes,

and then plucking the grapes and casting them into the winepress of YHVH, at which point the

press is trampled ―and blood goes from the press until the bridles of the horses — above a thousand and two hundred stadia.‖ See, Rev. 14:13-20.

198 Rev. 9:15 suggests this plague (or its preparations) will last one year, one month, one day,

and one hour. It‘s uncertain whether this is literal or figurative.

B. Trumpets in the Bible

The blowing of a trumpet generally signifies that the judgment of YHVH is coming. See e.g., Joel 2:1, Amos 3:6, Amos 4:12.199 It has been interpreted from Zephaniah 1:16 that the scout‘s shophar and the warrior‘s shophar are joined together in

the description of the day of YHVH‘s wrath.

Ezekiel 33:6 refers to the blowing of the trumpet before the sword is unsheathed. And yet, recall that the swords of the armies against Israel are mentioned in the 2nd and 4th seals before the trumpets of the seventh seal. See also, Rev. 13:10.

Trumpets can be used rightly and wrongly. Daniel 3:4-12 refers to the blowing of

the trumpet as Nebukadnets Tsar‘s direction for everyone to fall done and prostrate to his golden idol. See, Trumpets, by Lee Smith.

The ―horns‖ and ―trumpets‖ in Revelation and Daniel appear to correlate because a biblical trumpet (―shophar‖) is actually a ram‘s horn, typically used to announce a new moon Sabbath or used as a warning or battle

call. Those who sound the shophar are called blasters. 200

The shophars in Revelation begin at Rev 8:1-2 with the seventh seal, ―And when he opens seal seven a hush becomes in the heavens as the space of half an hour. And I see seven angels in front of God — standing and they are given seven

shophars…‖

The disasters marshaled in by the seven shophars are referred to as plagues (Aramaic = ―mehuta‖). See e.g., Rev. 9:18-20. Relatedly, the two witnesses are said to have power to strike the earth with plagues (mehuta), and none of the first six seals are

referred to as plagues. Rev. 11:6. And notably, the seven vials are also referred to as plagues. Rev 15:1.

199 See also, Are You Missing The Point Of The Feast Of The Trumpets?, by Lawrence

Nowell. 200 Shophar, by Bill Bratt; Hebrew Lexicon for shophar, by Bible Tools. ―The description of

the feast [of trumpets] as a "day of blowing" is not impressive because the shofar was blown at the beginning of each month (Num 10:10)…. Since the blowing of the trumpets became the

distinguishing characteristic of the day, it became known as the Feasts of the Trumpets: the feast that called people to prepare to stand before the judgment of God.‖ God‘s Festivals In Scripture

and History: Volume II, The Fall Festivals, by Samuele Bacchiocchi.

XIII. Correlating Ezekiel with Revelation

Ezekiel sees ―the likeness of four live beings‖ (Ezek. 1:5), each with four faces and four wings (Ezek. 1:6-7) having the face of a human, a lion, an ox, and an eagle (Ezek.

1:10). ―Their visage of is as burning coals of fire… and the four have one likeness: and their

visage and their work is as a wheel midst a wheel.‖ (Ezek. 1:13-16). ―And when the live beings go, the wheels go beside…a spirit of the

live beings is in the wheels.‖ (Ezek. 1:19-21). ―I hear the voice of their wings as the voice of

great waters…‖ (Ezek. 1:24). ―And above the expanse over their heads, the likeness of a throne…‖ (Ezek. 1:26). See also Ezek. 10:14-

15. o Compare Rev. 4:2-11 describing amidst a throne in heaven ―four living

beings‖ who have the faces of human, lion, calf,201 and eagle.

―And I see; and I fall on my face; and I hear a voice of one speaking: and he says

to me, Son of humanity, stand on your feet, and I word to you.‖ Ezek. 2:1. ―…and he says to me, Son of humanity, I send you to the sons of Yisra El — to a rebelling goyim who rebel against me…‖ (Ezek. 2:3) ―And I see, and behold, a

hand sent to me; and behold, a roll of a scroll therein; and he spreads it at my face…‖ (Ezek. 2:9-10). ―He says to me, Son of humanity, eat what you find; eat

this roll; and go word to the house of Yisra El. So I open my mouth and he feeds me that roll; and he says to me, Son of humanity, feed your belly; and fill your inwards with this roll I give you. — and I eat it; and in my mouth, it is as honey

for sweetness.‖ (Ezek. 3:1-3). After this Ezekiel is told to prophecy to Israel. Ezek. 3:4-11.

o Compare Rev. 1:17-18 (John falls on his feet before the Messiah); Rev 5:1-8 (Messiah takes the scrolls from the hand of the one on the throne).

o Compare Rev. 10:8-11 (John eats the little scroll and it tastes like honey,

and he is told to prophecy).

Ezek. 4:7, ―…three hundred and ninety days… [and] forty days….And establish your face toward the siege of Yeru Shalem, and strip your arm and prophesy against it.‖

o Compare Rev. 11:2 referring to the trampling of the holy city for 42 months.

Ezek. 4:9- 5:1 ―And the food you eat — twenty shekels a day by weight: from

time to time you eat. And drink water by measure, the sixth of an hin: from time

to time you drink. And eat it as barley ashcakes…And he says to me, Son of humanity, behold, I break the rod of bread in Yeru Shalem: and they eat bread by

weight, and with concern; and they drink water by measure, and with

201 The Aramaic word is ―egla,‖ which can also be translated ox or heifer.

Page 83: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 82 | P a g e

astonishment: so that they lack bread and water and astonish man with brother; and dissolve for their perversity. And you, son of humanity, take a sharp sword,

take a razor of a barber, and pass it over your head and over your beard: and take balances of weights and allot them.‖

o Compare the third seal of Rev. 6:5-6 referring to measuring food. Ezek. 5:11-17, ―So — I live — an oracle of Adonay

Yah Veh because you foul my holies with all your abominations and with all your abhorrences. I also

diminish you; neither my eye spares nor I compassion. A third of you die with the pestilence — finished off with famine in your midst; and a third

fall by the sword all around you; and a third I winnow into all the winds: and I draw out a sword

after them. Thus I finish off my wrath and I rest my fury on them, and sigh: and they know that I Yah Veh word in my zeal when I finish off my fury in

them…. and I increase the famine on you and break your rod of bread: thus I send famine on you; and

evil live beings bereave you; and pestilence and blood passes through you; and I bring the sword on you.‖

o Compare the fourth seal of Rev. 6:7-8, where the pale horse rider has

power over ¼ of the earth to slaughter by sword and famine and death and the living beings of the earth.

Ezek. 7:8, ―Now, soon I pour my fury on you, and finish o ff my wrath on you:

and I judge you according to your ways, and give you for all your abhorrences.‖

o Compare the fifth seal of Revelation.

Ezek. 7:10-19, ―Behold the day; behold, arrives: the corona goes forth; the rod blossoms; arrogance buds: violence rises into a rod of wickedness: neither one of them nor of their multitude nor of any of abundance; nor any lamentation for

them. The time arrives; the day touches; neither the chatteler cheers nor the seller mourn: for fuming is on all the multitude. For the seller returns not to what is sold

although their life is among the living: for the vision touches the whole multitude; not to return; and man strengthens not himself by the perversity of his life. They blast the blast to prepare and no one goes to the war; for my fuming is on all the

multitude: the sword is outside and the pestilence and the famine inside the house: he who is in the field dies with the sword; and he who is in the city famine and

pestilence devour him: and the escapees escape, and are on the mountains as doves of the valleys — all of them roaring — every man for his perversity: all hands slacken and all knees go watery: they gird with saq and trembling covers

them; and shame is on all faces and baldness on all their heads. They cast their silver in the outways and their gold becomes excluded: their silver and their gold

cannot rescue them in the day of the wrath of Yah Veh: they neither satisfy their souls nor fill their inwards: because it becomes the stumblingblock of their perversity.‖

Page 84: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 83 | P a g e

o Compare the sixth seal of Rev. 6:12-17 where the sun becomes black and everyone on earth trembles in fear of the coming wrath.

Ezek. 7:20-27, ―As for the splendor of his ornament, he sets it in pomp: and they

work the images of their abhorrences and of their abominations therein: so I give to exclude it from them: and I give it into the hands of the strangers for a plunder; and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they profane it: and I turn my face

from them and they profane my hideout; for the tyrants enter it and profane it. Work a chain: for the land fills with judgments of blood, and the city fills with

violence. And I bring the evil of the goyim to possess their houses: I also shabbathize the pomp of the strong; to profane their hallowed. Severence arrives; and they seek shalom, and there is none. Calamity on calamity arrives; and report

on report: and they seek a vision of the prophet; and the torah destructs from the priest and counsel from the elders. The sovereign mourns and the hierarch

enrobes with desolation and the hands of the people of the land terrify: I work to them after their way, and judge them after their judgments; and they know I — Yah Veh.‖

o Compare the seventh seal trumpets. It‘s uncertain whether the references to judgment here are meant to signify that YHVH‘s holy judgments will

only come after man‘s unholy judgments carried out first.

Ezekiel Chapter 8 appears to begin a new vision, and describes various

abominations in different parts of the temple at Jerusalem, including something called a ―figurine of jealousy.‖

o Compare Rev. 13:5-15 describing idol/icon worship. Ezek. 9:3-4, ―And he calls to the man enrobed with linen with the inkwell of the

scribe on his loins; and Yah Veh says to him, Pass through midst the city — through midst Yeru Shalem; and tattoo a tattoo on the foreheads of the men who

sigh and shriek for all the abhorrences worked in our midst.‖ The rest of Chapter 9 describes the smiting of those without the mark.

o Compare Rev. 7:2-3 (prior to the first trumpet) referring to the angels

marking the foreheads of the servants of YHVH between their eyes so they‘ll avoid certain of the coming plagues.

Ezek. 11:8-10, ―…you awe the sword and I bring a sword on you — an oracle of

Adonay Yah Veh and I bring you from the midst and give you into the hands of

strangers, and work judgments among you: you fall by the sword; I judge you in the border of Yisra El; and you know I — Yah Veh.‖

o Compare Rev. 13:4-10 referring to the worship of the living being and ―who whoever slaughters with the sword by the sword is slaughtered.‖ And/Or perhaps this refers to the second or fourth seal swords.

Ezek. 11:16–21 ―So say, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Although I remove them

afar from among the goyim, and although I scatter them among the lands, yet I am to them as a little holies in the lands where they go. So say, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: And I gather you from the people, and assemble you from the countries

where you scattered; and I give you the soil of Yisra El to go there, and turn aside

Page 85: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 84 | P a g e

all the abominations and all the abhorrences from there: and I give them one heart and I give a new spirit within you; and I turn aside the heart of stone from their

flesh and give them an heart of flesh: so that they walk in my statutes and guard my judgments and work them: and they are my people, and I am their Elohim. As

for them whose heart walks after the heart of their abominations and their abhorrences, I give their way on their own heads — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.‖

o Compare Rev. 14:1-12 referring to the 144,000, with the name of the Father on them, who follow the lamb wherever he goes and follow the

misvoth of YHVH and trust of the Messiah. See also, Rev. 12:17. And these virtuous people are contrasted with humans who worship the beast and his icon and therefore receive YHVH‘s wrath.

Ezek. 12:16, ―And I leave of them remaining from the sword from the famine and

from the pestilence so that they scribe all their abhorrences among the goyim where they go; and they know I — Yah Veh.‖

o Compare the fourth seal of Revelation.

Ezek. 12:26 emphasizes that these prophecies were explicitly for the age Ezekiel

lived in, ―And so be the word of Yah Veh to me, saying, Son of humanity, behold, the house of Yisra El says, The vision he sees is for many days, and he prophesies of the times afar off. So say to them, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Not one of my

words is drawn out any more: and the word I word works — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.‖

o This is an important point that will limit overreaching of certain correlations between Ezekiel and Revelation.

Ezek. 13:13, ―I split it with a stormy wind in my fury; and so be it, an overflowing downpour in my wrath and great hailstones in my fury to fully finish it off…‖

o Compare the hail that finishes the wrath in Rev. 16:21 against Babylon who produces the false prophet.

Ezek. 14:6, ―So say to the house of Yisra El, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Turn — turn from your idols; and turn

from your faces — from all your abhorrences:‖ And Ezek. 14:12-21, ―And so be the word of Yah Veh to me, saying, Son of humanity, when the land sins against me in

treasoning a treason, then I spread my hand thereon and break the rod of the bread and send famine thereon; and

cut off humanity and animal from it: and there are three men in the midst, — Noach, Dani El, and Iyob who rescued their own souls by their justness — an oracle of

Adonay Yah Veh. If I pass evil live beings through the land, and they bereave, and it becomes desolate, so that no

man passes through at the face of the live beings — these three men in the midst thereof, I live — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh they rescue neither sons nor daughters; they only are rescued,

and the land becomes desolate. Or, I bring a sword on that land, and say, Sword,

Page 86: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 85 | P a g e

pass through the land; so that I cut off humanity and animal from it: and these three men in the midst thereof — I live — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh they

rescue neither sons nor daughters, for they only are rescued. Or, I send a pestilence into that land and pour my fury thereon in blood — to cut off humanity

and animal therefrom: and Noach, Dani El, and Iyob are in the midst — I live — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh they rescue neither son nor daughter; they rescue their own souls by their justness. For thus says Adonay Yah Veh; How much

more when I send my four evil judgments on Yeru Shalem — the sword and the famine and the evil live being and the pestilence — to cut it off from humanity

and animal?‖ o Compare the fourth seal of Revelation o Note that ―live beings‖ are distinguished from humanity, animals, and

pestilences. Are these the fallen angels?

Ezek. 15:6-8, ―As I give the vine tree among the trees of the forest as fire for fuel, thus I give the settlers of Yeru Shalem: and I give my face against them; they come from the fire; and fire consumes them: and you know I — Yah Veh when I

set my face against them: and I give the land desolate, because they treason a treason — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.‖

o Compare Rev. 14:18 regarding the angel with sultanship over fire who uses his sickle to pluck the clusters of the vineyard of the earth.

Ezek. 16:8-19, ―And I pass you by and see you; behold, your time is a time of loves: and I spread my wing over you and cover your nakedness: yes, I oath to

you and enter a covenant with you — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh and you become mine: and I baptize you with water; yes, I thoroughly wash away your blood from you and I anoint you with oil: and I

enrobe you with embroidery and shod you with skin of badgers; and I bind you with white linen

and I cover you with silk: and I adorn you with ornaments and I give clasps on your hands and a chain on your throat: and I give a nosering on

your nostrils and earrings in your ears and a crown of adornment on your head: and adorn you

with gold and silver; and your robe is of white linen and silk and embroidery: you eat flour and honey and oil: and you are mightily beautified

and you prosper into a sovereigndom: and because of your beauty your name goes forth

among the goyim: for it is perfect through my majesty which I set on you — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh. And you confide in your own

beauty and whore because of your name; and pour your whoredoms on every one who passes by — to him. And from your clothes, you take of the patches, and

work your bamahs and whore thereon: such as neither has come, nor becomes. And you take your instruments of adornment of my gold and of my silver, which I give you, and work images of males to yourself and whore with them; and take

your clothes of embroidery and cover them: and you give my oil and my incense

Page 87: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 86 | P a g e

at their face: and the meat I give you — flour and oil and honey to eat, you even give at their face for a scent of rest: and so be it, — an oracle of Adonay Yah

Veh.‖ And Ezek. 35-42, ―So, O whore, hear the word of Yah Veh! Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Because your copper is poured, and your nakedness exposed

through your whoredoms with your lovers and with all the idols of your abhorrences, and by the blood of your sons, which you give them; behold, so I gather all your lovers whom you pleased and all whom you loved with all whom

you hated — and I gather them all around against you and expose your nakedness to them so that they see all your nakedness. And I judge you with judgments as

adulteresses who pour blood; and I give you blood and fury and jealousy: and I give you into their hand: and they throw down your arch and pull down your ramahs: and they strip you of your clothes and take your instruments of

adornment; and leave you naked and nude: and they ascend a congregation against you and stone you with stones and section you with their swords: and they

burn your houses with fire and work judgments on you in the eyes of many women: and I shabbathize you from whoring and that you give a payoff no more. Thus I rest my fury toward you; and turn my jealousy from you: and I rest, and

vex no more.‖ o Compare Revelation Chapters 17 and 18 regarding the whore of Babylon

with her expensive adornments, until she is worked naked and destroyed by those whom she whored with. See also Rev. 2:14, Rev. 2:20-22

Ezek.17:22-24, ―Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: I also take of the foliage of the high cedar and give it; I pluck a tender one from the top of his sprouts and transplant it

on a high and lofty mountain — transplant it in the mountain of the height of Yisra El: and it bears branches and works fruit and becomes a mighty cedar: and all birds of every wing tabernacle under it; in the shadow of the branches they

tabernacle: and all the trees of the field know that I Yah Veh lower the high tree; heighten the low tree: wither the fresh tree; and blossom the dry tree: I Yah Veh

word and work it.‖ o Compare the tree of life in the Messiah‘s new kingdom in Rev. 22.

Ezek. 18:5-9, ―And a man, being just, who works judgment and justness, who: neither eats on the mountains nor lifts his eyes to the idols of the house of Yisra

El; neither fouls the woman of his friend nor approaches an excluded woman; neither oppresses man; restores the pledge to the debtor; in stripping, strips not; gives his bread to the famished; and covers the naked with clothes; neither gives

on usury nor takes any bounty; turns his hand from wickedness; works judgment in truth between man and man; walks in my statutes and guards my judgments to

work in truth; he is just: in living, he lives — an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.‖ o Compare Rev 22:14, ―Graced — whoever works his misvah: that they

have sultanship over the tree of life‖

Ezek. 19:1-7, ―And you, lift a lamentation for the hierarchs of Yisra El, and say,

What is your mother? A roaring lioness! She crouches among lions, she greatens her whelps among whelps: and she ascends one of her whelps: it becomes a whelp that learns to prey; it devours humanity: and the goyim hear of him and

apprehend him in their pit of ruin: and with hooks they bring him to the land of

Page 88: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 87 | P a g e

Misrayim. when she sees, that in waiting, her hope destructs, she takes one of her whelps,

and sets him a whelp: and he goes up and down among the lions, he becomes a whelp

and learns to prey and devours humanity. And he knows their abandonments; and he parches their cities; and the land, and the fulness

thereof desolates by the voice of his roaring. And the goyim give against him from all

around the jurisdictions; and spread their net over him: and apprehend him in their pit of ruin: and with hooks they give him in a cage, and bring him to the sovereign of

Babel: they bring him into the huntholds so that his voice is heard no more on the mountains of Yisra El.‖

o Compare the rise and eventual demise of the kings and little horn in Daniel Chapter 11.

Ezek. 19:10-14, ―Your mother is as a vine in your blood transplanted by the waters: she bears fruit and branches by reason of many waters: and she has rods

of strength for the scions of them who reign; and her height heightens among the foliage, and she is seen in her height with the abundance of her branches: and she is uprooted in fury — cast down to the earth; and the east wind withers her fruit:

her rods of strength break and wither; the fire consumes them: and now she is transplanted in the wilderness — in a parched and thirsty earth: and fire comes

from a rod of her branches, which consumes her fruit, so that she has no rod of strength to become a scion to reign. This is a lamentation; and becomes for a lamentation.‖

o Compare the description of the wilderness and the fall of Satan and his angels in Revelation Chapter 12, as well as Rev. 6:13, ―…and the stars of

the heavens fall upon the earth as a fig tree casting her unripe figs when quaked by a powerful wind…‖

o Additional root and branch analysis can be found in Isaiah Chapter 11.

Ezek. 22: 23-26, ―And so be the word of Yah Veh to me, saying, Son of

humanity, say to her, You are the land — neither purified nor rained on in the day of rage 25 — a conspiracy of prophets in her midst: as a roaring lion tearing the prey, they devour souls: they take the wealthy and esteemed; they abound her

widows in her midst: her priests violate my torah and profane my holies: they neither separate between the holy and profane nor make known between the foul

and the pure; and conceal their eyes from my shabbaths, and I am profaned among them.‖

o Compare Rev. 11:6 referring to the two witnesses with power to stop the

rain during a time of plagues.

Ezek. 26-28 discusses the lavishness and punishment of Sor (Tyrus) and its king.202

o Compare the lavishness and punishment of Babylon and Satan in Rev. 17-20.

Ezek. 29, ―I give you for food to the live beings of the earth and to the flyers of

the heavens:‖

o Compare Rev. 19:17-21 where the flyers of the heavens satiate on the flesh of many after the great battle of this age.

Ezek 26-29 are describing the kingdoms of sor (tyrus) and misrayim (mesrein),

which today are Lebanon and Egypt. The ancient city of Sodom (Sedom) can

also be traced back to Lebanon (through Canaan) to some extent. o Compare Rev. 11:8 discussing how the corpses of the two witnesses ―are

upon the market of the great city which spiritually is called, Sedom and Mesrein — where their Lord was staked.‖203

Ezek. 29:21, ―In that day, I sprout the horn of the house of Yisra El‖ o Compare the horns in Rev. 13, as well as the little horn in Daniel.

Ezek. 32:3-8, ―Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: And I spread my net over you with a

congregation of many people; and they ascend you in my net: and I abandon you

on the land: I cast you forth on the face of the field, and all the flyers of the heavens tabernacle on you; and with you, I satiate the live beings of the whole

earth: and I give your flesh on the mountains and fill the valleys with your carcase heaps: and with your blood I wet the land of your swimming — even to the

mountains; and fill the reservoirs with you: and when I put you out, I cover the heavens and darken the stars: I

cover the sun with a cloud and the moon lightens not: all the lights of the light of the heavens I darken over you and give darkness on your land — an oracle of Adonay

Yah Veh.‖ o Compare Rev. 19:17-21 and yet also Rev. 6:12.

Ezek. 33:1-5, ―And so be the word of Yah Veh to me, saying, Son of humanity,

word to the sons of your people, and say to them, When I bring the sword on a

land, if the people of the land take one man from their edges, and give him for their watcher: and he sees the sword approach the land, he blasts the shophar and

enlightens the people: and in hearing, one hears the voice of the shophar, and takes not warning; and the sword approaches and takes him away, his blood is on

202 It‘s useful to know the historical perspective that the sovereign of Tyrus helped King Solomon build the second temple in Jerusalem, and ultimately it was used in some measure

toward occult ends. See, Scriptures on the Antichrist, by O.J. Graham. 203 To see that one of the unifying characteristics of Sodom and Egypt was their lack of hospitality, see, Genesis 18-19, Exodus 22:21 and Exodus 23:9. Leviticus 19:34.

Page 90: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

his own head: for he hears the voice of the shophar, and takes not warning; his blood is on himself: and he who takes warning, rescues his soul.‖

o Compare the seven trumpets (shophars) of Revelation. o Notably, if the remainder of Ezekiel Chapter 33 does indeed correlate to

the trumpets of revelation, then it suggests that even during the revelation trumpets a man can repent and turn toward YHVH.

Ezekiel 34 is about tending flocks o Compare Rev. 7:17, 12:5 and 19:15 regarding the Messiah who shepherds.

o Compare also Ezek. 34:17 (rams and goats) to Daniel 8 (ram and goat).

Ezekiel 38-39 is about the Gog and Magog war.

o Compare Rev. 20:7-15, which appears to be about the same war (or perhaps Ezekiel foreshadows the Rev 20 war). Indeed, the successive

chapters (Ezek. 40-42 and Rev. 21) both involve measuring a very important building in Jerusalem.

Ezek. 43:6-9, ―And I hear him speak to me from the house; with the man standing beside me, and he says to me, Son of humanity, the place of my throne, and the

place of the soles of my feet, where I tabernacle among the sons of Yisra El eternally, and my holy name, the house of Yisra El fouls no more — neither they nor their sovereigns by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their sovereigns in

their bamahs. In their giving of their threshold with my thresholds, and their post beside my posts, and the wall between me and between them, and they foul my

holy name by the abhorrences they work: and I finish them off in my wrath. Now have them remove their whoredom and remove the carcases of their sovereigns far from me; and I tabernacle midst them eternally.‖

o Compare Rev. 21:1-9 regarding the grace and salvation of the new kingdom in the new Jerusalem.

XIV. Reading the Book of Joshua to help identify the seven trumpets

Joshua 6:2-4, ―And Yah Veh says to Yah Shua, See, I give in your hand, Yericho

and the sovereign and the mighty of valour: surround the city, all you men of war, and go all around the city one time: work thus six

days: and seven priests at the face of the ark bear seven shophars of jubilee: and the

seventh day surround the city seven times, and the priests blast with the shophars.‖

This passage may foreshadow that the trumpets of revelation will coincide with the

trampling of Jerusalem (proverbial breaking down of walls/defenses) before the antichrist (little horn) takes his throne in the conquered

Page 91: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 90 | P a g e

nation. It might seem that one problem with this interpretation is that it likens the conquering armies of modern Jerusalem (presumably in YHVH‘s disfavor) to the

conquering armies of Jericho (presumably in YHVH‘s favor). However, the presumption that the latter armies conquering Jericho were in YHVH‘s favor appears to be false, as

described in Deuteronomy 9:1-8, ―Hear, O Yisra El: This day you pass over Yarden to go in to possess goyim greater and mightier than yourself — cities great and fortified to the heavens — a people great and exalted — the sons of the Anakiy, whom you — you know

and of whom you — you heard who stood himself at the face of the sons of Anak! And know this day, Yah Veh your Elohim — he passes over at your face; as a consuming fire

he desolates them and he subdues them at your face: thus you dispossess them and destroy them suddenly, as Yah Veh worded to you. Say not in your heart, after Yah Veh your Elohim expels them from your face, saying, Because of my justness Yah Veh brings

me in to possess this land: but because of the wickedness of these goyim Yah Veh dispossesses them from your face. Not for your justness, or for the straightness of your

heart go you to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these goyim Yah Veh your Elohim dispossesses them from your face — to raise the word Yah Veh oathed to your fathers — Abraham, Yischaq and Yaaqov: and understand this: that Yah Veh your

Elohim gives you not this good land to possess because of your justness; for you are a hard necked people. Remember and forget not how you enraged Yah Veh your Elohim in

the wilderness: from the day you departed from the land of Misrayim until you came to this place you are rebellious against Yah Veh. Even in Horeb you enraged Yah Veh, so that Yah Veh was angry with you to desolate you.‖

Indeed, it has been popularly said that the issue isn‘t whether the Father is on your

side, but whether you are on the Father‘s side.

When the Messiah passed through Jericho he healed at least one blind beggar

(Mark 10:46; Luke 18:35, Matthew 20:29) and convinced a tax collector named Zacchaeus to repent. (Luke 19:1-10). The road between Jerusalem and Jericho is the

setting for the Parable of the Good Samaritan. (Luke 10:25). XV. Possible Rapture

Daniel 12:1, ―And at that time Michah El

the great governor stands — who stands for the sons of your people: and there becomes a time of tribulation, such as never became since there was

a goyim until that time: and at that time your people escape every one found inscribed in the

scroll.‖ The two possible raptures, if any, are

referred to as pre-tribulation and pre-wrath.

At present, I think the 144,000 mentioned in Rev. 7:4-8 are different people than the 144,000 mentioned in Rev. 14:1 because the Chapter 7 group are still on the earth during (at least part of) the seventh seal plagues. But it's uncertain when the Chapter 14

Page 92: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 91 | P a g e

group are ―merchandised [zeban] from the earth‖ and present with the Messiah on Mt. Zion, according to Rev. 14:1-3. We know they are unblemished virgins who follow the

Messiah wherever he goes, according to Rev 14:4-5. Do these characteristics match the Rev. 7:4-8 group? In my opinion probably not, but objectively it's unclear from the Book

of Revelation alone.

In Rev. 7:1-8, angels hold the four corners of the earth, stop the wind, and mark

the seal of the living Alhym (Elohim) on the foreheads of the 144,000 servants of our Father on the earth. (Rev 7:1-8) These 144,000 members of the tribes of Israel who are

sealed with the mark of Elohim (Rev. 7:4-8) will not suffer the locust plague during the fifth trumpet. (Rev. 9:4). So long as they uphold faith in the Messiah, then by deduction from Rev. 13:16, they‘ll be executed by the beast powers, and therefore they‘ll probably

be the ones who were described in Rev. 6:9-11 as the future victims of the beast eligible to join their ―comrades [kenata] and brothers [‗a aha]‖ wearing white robes in heaven.

Perhaps the idea of a 'safety elevator to heaven' rapture is erroneous. In my reading, it often seems more literal that people will die on earth, and then receive their appointed place in waiting, heaven or otherwise.

Rev. 14:13-20 describes (for the year 2018?) not a rapture, but a reaping (a

relatively merciful killing – ―qetap” meaning to pluck) of the grapes from the earth, ―And I hear a voice from the heavens, wording, Scribe, Graced — the dead who depart in Yah Veh from now. Yes, words the Spirit, because they rest from their labors. And behold, a

white cloud — and upon the cloud one seated in image of the Son of humanity having a wreath of gold upon his head and a sharp sickle upon his hand. And another angel goes

from the nave shouting in a great voice to him seated upon the cloud, Apostolize your sickle and harvest because the hour to harvest has come: — and he casts, he who is seated upon the cloud, his sickle upon the earth: and harvests the earth. And another angel goes

from the nave in the heavens upon having a sharp sickle: and another angel goes from the sacrifice altar having sultanship over fire: and with the shout of a great voice he having

the sharp sickle, Apostolize your sharp sickle and pluck the clusters of the vineyard of the earth because her grapes are great. And the angel casts his sickle upon the earth and plucks the vineyard of the earth and casts it in the great press of the wrath of God. And

the press is trampled outside of the city and blood goes from the press until the bridles of the horses — above a thousand and two hundred stadia.‖

These events must happen after the mark of the beast, because the precursor to

Rev. 14:13-20 is Rev. 14:9-12, ―And another, angel three, follows them, wording in the

voice of the Rabbi, Whoever worships the living being and his icon and takes his tattoo between his eyes he also drinks of the fermented wine of the wrath of Yah Veh mingled

— not mixed in the cup of his wrath and is tormented in fire and sulphur in front of the holy angels and in front of the lamb: and the smoke of their torment ascends to the eons of the eons and they have no breathing day or night — they who worship the living being

and his icon and they who take the tattoo of his name. Here we have the endurance of the holy who guard the misvoth of God and the trust of Yah Shua.‖

The reference to the ―cup of his wrath‖ in Rev 14:10 may suggest the timing of

this event coincides with the vials.

XVI. The Vatican‟s False End-of-Days Timeline, 2009 – 2016, Designed To Deceive Christians and Others Into Accepting Satan as the World‟s Messiah____________________________________________________

A. False Timeline

The false prophets within the Catholic religion are

already on record trying to identify groups outside of Catholicism as the Whore of Babylon and the Beast of the Sea. And once WWIII closes and the first alien invasion happens,

people will look to the Vatican for spiritual answers, and the Vatican will continue to deceive many. The following timeline

would be a classic false scenario that the Catholic Church would try to espouse:

Vatican’s False Timeline

2009 Beginning of 7-year tribulation with various political bailouts and

international agreements (including Israel / Palestine peace) negotiated by America. Since the first seal/horse of the apocalypse represents political power, Obama‘s commencement as U.S. President and receipt of

the Nobel Peace Prize may be exploited to point to him as the antichrist.

2010 – 2011 Start of what will be called ―WWIII‖ (Iran/Israel; US/Russia; Koreas). Much of this war will be portrayed as a Christian v. Muslim war. Since the second seal/horse of the apocalypse represents war, the mass media

and military- industrial complex will do what they do best – deceive and destroy.

2011 – 2012 Economic collapse, drought, famine, natural disasters, continued war. These NWO-caused events will be perceived by many as the third and

forth seals/horses of the apocalypse (the third has a rider holding a yoke and divvying up food and price setting, while the fourth horse has power

over ¼ of the earth to kill by sword and famine and beasts of the earth).

2012 Aliens arrive as Nibiru draws into earth‘s orbital path. Chaos ensues.

Vatican claims this first round of aliens that arrive in 2012 are Satan and all his angels. Jews start sacrifices again at the Temple Mount, which

many will say breaks the Middle East peace treaty. The arrival of Nibiru and aliens will be falsely claimed as the sixth seal. Revelation says the sixth seal brings a mega earthquake, the sun becomes black, and moon

becomes red, and stars of the heavens fall to earth, and everyone hides, even under rocks, from the face of the one on the throne and the wrath of

the lamb. New Age literature is already claiming with pseudo-science about what Nibiru will do to the earth and sky in 2012 to match the sixth seal.

Page 94: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 93 | P a g e

2012-2016 The two witnesses sent by YHVH will be slandered as the Vatican claims they represent the Beasts of revelation terrorizing people with plagues

and drought, and they cannot be destroyed. Vatican exploits rfid-tracking chip surge as the mark of the beast. Meanwhile, supernatural signs

continue to rock the earth, and governments scramble for order in the midst of war. The religious establishment heralds this time as the time of the seventh seal, seven trumpets, and seven vials.

2016 The Catholic Church and its armies, including Prince William, lead the

charge toward Jerusalem and kill the witnesses in the name of ―Jesus.‖204 Satan takes his throne at the Temple Mount and claims to be the god of the world.

2016 Satan explains away the seven vials from 2017-2019 as the preparations

for a Gog & Magog war, which allows him to congregate his armies for the war against the real Messiah.

So, the Vatican will moderate the debate around four false choices to further

confuse: (1) deceived and angry Christians who claim that Barack Obama is the antichrist and the United Nations is the beast, (2) another angry camp of people who argue that the Two Witnesses represent the antichrist and beast of revelation, (3) yet more deceived

groups who claim that Christ arrived in 2012, and (4) the camp who claims every ‗illuminated‘ person is a Christ himself/herself.

204 Further advancing Satan‘s potential for deception, Luke 10:18 advises that Satan will fall

from heaven like lightning, and in Matthew 24:27 we read that the Messiah wil l come to earth

like lightning. Similarly, Satan may counterfeit the temperate and peaceful environment of the millennial kingdom, as Joel 2:1 -3 describes that the in day of YHVH‘s wrath, the ―the land is as

the garden of Eden at their face, and behind them a desolate wilderness.‖ Scriptures describe that when the Messiah returns for the millennial reign the earth will be restored with gardens. (See

e.g., Isa. 51:3, Ezek. 36:33-36. Compare Rev 20:6, and Rev. Chs. 21-22.).

Page 95: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 94 | P a g e

As described by Little Guy In The Eye, ―He [Satan] can bring about a world war with Judeo-Christianity and Islam (already planned over 100 years ago) and convince

man that it is Gog and Magog or Armageddon depending upon their understanding. Jews are convinced that the Messiah comes after Gog and Magog. Christians believe that

Jesus comes after Armageddon, and even Muslims believe that Isa comes after the Day.… This teaching [re 1948 as Zion‘s rebirth] has been propagated by eschatology teachers like Hal Lindsey and Tim LaHaye, whose end time interpretations have been

become so mainstream that people don‘t even question their validity anymore. They teach that the ‗church‘ will be raptured 7 years before the great tribulation which

precedes the 2nd coming of Christ. It is during this time that the antichrist will make a covenant with the Jews and then break it after 3 1/2 years. None of these things can be proven Biblically. The 7 year tribulation can‘t be proven without interjecting pre-

supposed ideas into the text…‖

So to recap, the false prophet timeline: (a) Lumps the four horsemen together with two counterfeit witnesses from 2009-2012; (b) starts the temple and sacrifices in 2012, and claims the first round of aliens that arrive in 2012 are Satan and all his angels;

(c) exploits rfid-tracking chips as the counterfeit mark of the beast, and lumps the seven trumpets and seven vials together, in 2012-2016, (d) claims Satan is the Messiah in 2016

and requires Satan and Arthur and icon worship, (e) explains away the seven vials from 2017-2019 as Satan preparing for a Gog & Magog war, (f) congregates the armies for a counterfeit Gog & Magog war.

B. Obama the Puppet

Expect the Catholic Church to encourage claims that Obama is the antichrist by championing the following points: In 2009 he is inaugurated as President, wins the Nobel peace prize, and helps negotiate a Middle East peace treaty.

His middle name ―Hussein‖ means ‗handsome‘ in Arabic.205 Then he expands the war in Iraq (former Babylon) into Iran on behalf of Israel. ‗Obamanation

of desolation‘ has a catchy ring to it, as does the purportedly official name of his limousine, ‗the beast.‘ Even the word bamah generally refers in the bible to an unholy hill for practicing idolatry. In 2012, Obama will probably be

instrumental in negotiating a new peace treaty in Israel that gives the Jews access to the Temple Mount for their sacrifices. Because this comes at a time

of great conflict, this will appear to many that Obama broke the peace treaty of 2009. Also in 2012, expect supernatural and alien- linked events to bring Obama into a new role in international leadership affairs.

According to a suspicious Harris poll, 14% of Americans in 2010 thought Obama

might be the antichrist. See, Obama Is Not The Antichrist And Nobody Really Thinks He Is, by Newsweek.

205 Preachers often teach that the antichrist will be handsome. This teaching comes from a

mistranslation of ―‘az paniym‖ in Daniel 8:23, which is better translated ―fierce countenance‖ or ―strong face.‖

Propaganda

Page 96: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 95 | P a g e

C. Two False Witnesses

For the Vatican to advance their false timeline, they will need to dismiss the Father‘s two witnesses of Rev. 11, and present their own two witnesses. The Vatican may even stage a false resurrection of a pope 206 and

a modern-day ―Catholic saint‖ to deceive people, or perhaps two fallen angels.

In any case, around 2016, deceived Christians and Jews can be

expected to rejoice at the killing of the real two witnesses in Jerusalem by

Prince William acting through Satan. Only when the two witnesses are resurrected will some of these deceived Christians and Jews realize they

were wrong.

D. Vatican‟s Other Tools Of Deception

Expect the Vatican to twist certain prophecy calculations ( i.e., 1967 + 49 = 2016), great pyramid measurements, astronomical signs (i.e., new moon and sun cycles in 2016),

as well as Greek gematria (i.e., ―Lord Jesus Christ‖ = 2016) and other words, to falsely claim that in 2016 Arthur should be crowned the Messiah, and Satan worshipped as the Father.

206 The Vatican‘s first false witness (olive branch) may be Pope Benedict (whose papal name

means glory of the olive, and whose real name is Joseph Ratzinger). The Vatican can be expected

to protect itself (murder its enemies) with fire. If any two Vatican insiders, such as Benedict, are ever attacked and then appear to ‗resurrect‘ from the dead, it probably means the Catholic church

is about to fake the abomination of desolation and mark of the beast.

Is Pope Benedict (Ratzinger) already being setup to look like one of the two witnesses? Well, in May 2009, Ratzinger (a former Nazi-supporter) heavily publicized his maiden voyage to

Israel as pope, and said during his official speech while wearing the traditional ivory wool

vestment, ―In this land, where Peter received his commission to feed the Lord‘s sheep, I come as Peter‘s successor to minister among you.‖ See, CFR Publication. Perhaps it is also a noteworthy

trail-marker/coincidence that Ratzinger used the word ―witness‖ twice in his speech (―witness a crime‖) and (―witness to him‖). I may be reading too much into this event though, as Ratzinger

was simply reading a pre-prepared speech.

Page 97: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 96 | P a g e

The Vatican even may try to shift key dates 3-years earlier to support Satan‘s

timeline, such as:

Christ was born in the year 2 B.C.

Christ was crucified April 3, 29 A.D.

The Vatican will certainly continue to suggest and argue that Babylon is exclusively America, Israel, or the European Union.

Both historically and today, people from all intelligence backgrounds have proven easily deceived in this area. It‘s curious that since the year 2000 many people have predicted major prophetic happenings in approximately 3-year intervals. In 2000, lots of

folks were wary of the new millennium. In 2003, a smaller but formidable contingent calculated prophecy dates and bible codes and astronomical signs and thought Nibiru

would cross earth‘s path. In 2006, certain bible codes (see e.g., The Bible Code II, by Michael Drosnin) raised awareness about a potential nuclear WWIII and other signs. In 2009, prophecy pundits amped up the predictions and started to become more

mathematically sophisticated, but the main tenet was that summer 2009 was 3 and ½ years before December 21, 2012.

And so, we can continue to expect false predictions, false messiahs, and rumors to

keep buzzing around like flies up until the very end. 207 See, Matthew 24:4-26. Indeed,

once the plagues and natural disasters start to hit hard, it will be very challenging from a logistics standpoint for people to receive reliable information.

E. False Prophets

In Matthew 7:15-20, the Messiah warns ―But beware of false prophets who come to you in clothing of lambs: and within have extortion of wolves: and by their fruits you

207 The PBS channel has an interesting documentary showing the phenomenon that every

generation after Christ has seen a sizeable portion of the populace that claimed their generation would see the Apocalypse, or some kind of rapture. Apocalypse: the evolution of apocalyptic

belief and how it shaped the western world , by PBS Frontline.

know them. Why? Gather they grapes from thorns? Or figs from thistles? Thus every graced tree produces beautiful fruit: and an evil tree works evil fruit. A graced tree is not

able work evil fruit: and an evil tree works not graced fruit: every tree not working graced fruit is cut and falls in the fire. And then by their fruits you know them.‖208

Throughout human history the masses have shown themselves to be gullible and

subject to manipulation by false prophecies. In recent times, mathematician John Allen

Paulos coined the phrase "Jeane Dixon effect," which refers to a tendency to promote a few correct predictions while ignoring a larger number of incorrect predictions.

1. Malachy

―St. Malachy‖ (Ua Morgair) was either a false prophet or an unknowing Vatican puppet, because his prophecies have been self-fulfilling in the evil hands of the Vatican since he gave them.

Malachy allegedly had his prophetic vision on his way to the Vatican in the 12th century at the request of Pope Innocent (who was not innocent).209 Malachy wrote down a string of short cryptic Latin

phrases that have subsequently matched the identity of each pope in sequence. I contend this is not a real prophecy because the cardinals

get to choose the pope in secret, and then the pope gets to choose his own name – therefore, the prophecies are easily self- fulfilling, especially because they‘re vague.

What is significant though is that the Vatican has used these faux-prophecies to

reveal to the world its game plan - so the current pope, Benedict, is the 2nd to last pope in their scheme.

The last pope according to the Malachy script is referred to in Latin as Petrus Romanus, meaning ―Peter the Roman.‖ It is prophesied that he ―will nourish the sheep in

many tribulations; when they are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the fearsome Judge will judge His people. The End.‖210

So, this means the Vatican will falsely claim the trampling of Jerusalem (a city which has seven hills) from 2012-2016 is the prelude to the arrival of ―God,‖ when in actuality

the year 2016 brings Satan, whom the Vatican will accept as their ―Judge‖ and master, thereby leading Vatican ‗sheep‘ to the slaughter. As described in greater detail below in section XVII.A.a.4, the last pope is the false prophet described in the Book of Revelation.

208 See also, Luke 6:26, ―woe to you whenever the sons of humanity are wording well about you: for thus were their fathers working to the prophets of falsehood.‖ The phrase ‗sons of

humanity‘ is used repeatedly throughout the gospel to refer to people other than those following

the narrow path of salvation in the Messiah. 209 The Popes, by Mary Ann Collins. 210 See e.g., Prophecy of the Popes article by Wikipedia.

Historically, it‘s notable that in the 11th century, Pope Benedict VIII was succeeded as pope by his brother, who was named Romanus (but took the name John) and sought by

lavish expenditure to win the Romans to his cause. 211

2. Nostradamus

In the case of Nostradamus, the evidence shows he died a false prophet guided by the occult.212 As a younger man, Nostradamus was a Catholic doctor. He only claimed to have

trance- like visions after he began studying the occult around the year 1548. He claims he wrote his prophecies in a very cryptic

manner to avoid Catholic persecution.213 Tellingly, most of his prophecies did not include the date the prophesied event was supposed to happen, which has allowed his supporters to make

convenient claims of fulfillment, and which has also made it challenging (to say the least) for scholars to calculate exactly how many times Nostradamus has prophesied falsely. However, where

dates are provided, we see he has prophesied falsely many times. 214

Nostradamus became relatively famous after publishing a book of prophecies, and he was hired by the de Medicis - a royal family with deep occult and elitist secret society connections.215 Serving the de Medicis, he became their royal doctor and psychic. One

of his responsibilities was to read the horoscopes of the queen‘s children.

Notably, due to the worldly popularity of Nostradamus over the centuries, certain predictions he didn‘t even write are attributed to him. Thus, you might say he‘s become an icon/idol that‘s taken a life of its own.

If Nostradamus is leading people to accept a false antichrist with a false end-times

scenario of 2012, then with whom was he communicating to receive his prophecies?

211 See e.g., Papal Appointment article by Wikipedia. 212 Nostradamus, A Challenge to Biblical Prophecy?, by Steve Bright.

213 See e.g., Quatrain 1.35, "The young lion will overcome the older one/On the field of

combat in single battle/He will pierce his eyes through a golden cage/Two wounds made one, then he dies a cruel death." This was interpreted by Nostradamus supporters as a prediction of

the accidental death of King Henry II. 214 Nostradamus, A Challenge to Biblical Prophecy?, by Steve Bright

215 See, Nostradamus Biography, by The History Channel; Background Information on

Nostradamus, from Armageddon Online. The Medici family has a long history of occult and illuminati influence. See e.g., Mystery Babylon the Great: Catholic or Jewish?, by Watch Unto

3. Baba Vanga

The evidence suggests Baba Vanga is another false prophet. She claimed that invisible creatures guided her wisdom. Her predictions reject the biblical Messiah in favor of a timeline elevating Muslim rule in

the near future and then she adds various statements about holocausts and people becoming robots and interstellar travel before she ends the

world in 5079 A.D. Today her predictions seem to attract focus because she predicted WWIII in the winter of 2010. As shown above, that prediction would match a counterfeit antichrist timeline, which would

therefore serve Satan‘s goal of deception.

4. Edgar Cayce

Like Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce bears the mark of a false prophet

for hire. He had a psychic readings store and shop in Alabama where he

made many false predictions over the years, for thousands of customers, often while in allegedly self- induced trances.216

XVII. Who‟s Who In The Book of Revelation?

A. The Dark Side

1. The Dragon is Satan

The Aramaic translation of dragon is ―tanina.‖

o The dragon wars (fights) in heaven with the Father‘s

archangel Michael (Mika El), and then after the dragon loses (probably in the year 2016),217 the dragon is cast to earth, and his tail drags a third of the stars (fallen

angels) to earth also. (Rev. 12:7-9)

From the perspective of most earthlings, this will look like an alien or ‗star-god‘ invasion. Those who have not already read and accepted

the key warnings from the literal bible (put on

216 See article and bibliography: Edgar Cayce, by Robert Carroll.

217 As described above in section VI.C, by one theory of Rev. 12:1-9, aliens begin arriving on

earth in the year 2012 (Rev. 12:3-4), and then Satan arrives on earth later in the year 2016 with

more angels (Rev. 12:9).

However, in another theory, Rev. 12:3-4 and 12:9 are describing the same event, so Satan is cast to earth with his angels (1/3 of the angels in heaven) in the year 2016 (we infer its 2016

because Rev. 12:3-4 states this is the time of the seven heads, ten horns, and seven diadems, which correlates to the beast arising out of the sea in Rev. 11:7 and Rev. 13:1).

Page 101: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

the armor of YHVH, so to speak) are likely to be deceived into willingly participating in various kinds of alien worship and

servitude.

The dragon is described as ―…that archserpent called Devouring Accuser and Satan who deceives all the earth…‖ (Rev.

12:9; see also Rev 20).

The dragon is said to have seven heads (with seven diadems) and ten horns. (Rev 12:3)

Are these horns and heads and crowns

the same ones mentioned in Daniel 7:7 (10 horns), Rev 13:1 (10 horns, 7

heads, 7 crowns), and Rev 17:3 (10 horns, 7 heads)? Based on the context

of Rev 12:3, I don‘t think we‘re being instructed that the dragon is the same entity as the living being of the sea, but rather Rev 12:3 shows us that the

dragon has power over the living being of the sea. Is the number of heads/horns/diadems just a commonality

between the two entities, or something deeper?

According to Rev. 17:11, ―And the dragon and the living being who had and has not — he is the eighth and of the

seven and goes into destruction.‖ o The second ―and‖ along with ―he is‖ in Rev. 17:11

implies a special unity/bond between the dragon and the little horn on the living beast of the sea.

o The dragon gives sultanship (ruling power) to the living being of the sea for 42 months to blaspheme YHVH. Rev 13:4-6.

o Rev 20:2-3 identifies the abyss as the place where the dragon

comes from, and where he is bound up (imprisoned) during the

millennial reign.

Notably, one of the emblems used by the Catholic church shows keys and a crown, perhaps symbolizing the keys to the abyss (rather than heaven)?

o The dragon is Satan. We infer (at best) from Isaiah 14:13 that Satan is a

fallen angel of light (―morning star‖ or ―son of the dawn‖) who helped create the earth.218 Perhaps the seven heads and crowns and ten horns he commands on earth represent different royal, relig ious, and financial

dynasties throughout the ages working war and deception.

2. The Living Being From the Sea (First Beast) With Its Unholy Alliance of Nations____________________________________________________

The Aramaic Translation of ‗Living Being From the Sea‘ is ―seleq hayuta men yama.‖ With the benefit of the descriptions in the book of Revelation, this beast appears to be a kind of ‗revived roman empire‘ that begins as an alliance of nations in the end-of-

days:

o Identity of the ‗first beast‘: Theory 1: This beast is a Revived Roman Empire comprised of

various European and Middle East Countries, especially the U.K., America, Israel, and Vatican City.219 And Prince William, who

will later take the name King Arthur, is the 11th horn that emerges from within the U.K. head to rule the whole being. (See section XVII.A.3 below for more detail on William).

Theory 2: This beast is apostate Israel, and Prince William is the

11th horn. The other ten horns are Illuminati-type bloodline rulers.

Perhaps the first beast is the ‗highly insane and nauseating

offspring‘ of countless subversive groups and secret societies. The overarching categories into which these groups would fit are

Freemasonry, Zionism, and Catholicism. Here is a partial list of some of the many organizations who have been involved over the last two thousand years as ‗secret/insider‘ societies: Secret

Societies Index. Their varying levels of cooperation and competition is both confused and twisted, but all the same, the net

result of all the criminal behavior and chaos is the formation of a singular kind of ‗one-world-government‘ beast beyond the control of any one person, group, or nation. Even to rid the world of the

institutions of Freemasonry, Zionism, and Catholicism all at once might be insufficient to immobilize this beast of many heads.

o Here are some key descriptions we learn from Revelation Chapter 13:

10 horns (with 10 diadems) and 7 skulls. (Rev. 13:1)

See also Rev 17:7-12 – the 10 horns are 10 sovereigns who rule with the ‗first beast‘ for 1 hour (about 15 days) at the

end of the week (7-year tribulation), and they all try to war with the Lamb of YHVH (Messiah), but of course, the

219 Other key players will likely be Germany, Italy, France, Switzerland, Russia, China,

Japan, Iran, and Egypt. For some useful studies of the importance of the Roman empire, here are some history lessons. History of the Empires in Bible Prophecy, by Teaching Hearts Ministry;

Lamb triumphs.

It may be that the 7 skulls are past grail- line kings, and the 8th King (a living head rather than a skull) will play a

prominent role in managing the ‗first beast.‘ See Rev 17:9-11. This theory is presented in Grail Code, by Clinton

Ortiz.

The ten sovereigns may be illuminati-chosen U.N. rulers.

At Daniel 7:17 we learn about the evolution of the four

beings rising from the earth.

o It‘s unclear why Herb Jahn‘s translation uses the word ―earth‖ here rather than ―sea,‖ though I suspect it is scribe error (of unknown origination)

because 7:1-3 describes these same beings as ascending from the ―sea.‖ Moving on, there is

ample debate on whether these four sovereigns represent four historical empires, such as (1) Babylonian, (2) Medo-Persian, (3) Macedo-

Grecian, and (4) Roman (current).220

See, Daniel 7:7-11 regarding the ten horns, and little eleventh horn (which has eyes like a man and a mouth

uttering greatly – appears to be the same mouth from Rev 13:5 that tramples the holy city for 42 months).

o This little horn is discussed in detail below in section XVII.A.3, including for example the

following: Skull carries the name of blasphemy (Rev.

13:1)

Image of a leopard, feet as of a bear, mouth as of lions, and the dragon gives him his

power and throne and sultanship (Rev. 13:2) Receives a sword to the head, but the wound

is healed and he comes back to life (Rev.

13:3) Receives his power and throne from the

dragon, for 42 months to blaspheme YHVH, and then after that he slaughters the holy and receives power over all tribes and nations

and tongues and inhabitants of the earth whose names are not scribed in the scroll of

220 For a starting point in researching traditional interpretations, see Chapter 7 Daniel‘s Vision of Future World History, by John Walvoord.

life. Rev 13:4-8.

o Daniel 11 describes this primary antichrist: He shall not regard the God of his fathers,

YHVH, nor the desire of women nor love any god, for he shall magnify himself above all. But in his place he shall honor the god of

fortresses, (the Hebrew phrase is, Ala Mahozine), and he shall honor a god whom

his fathers (the Jewish people), did not know (literally, an alien god).

According to Rev. 13:4, the beast of the sea is different than Satan. Notice how people are worshipping both entities, the dragon that

gives the beast authority, and also the beast itself.

3. Prince William of Wales Is The Little Horn (the „false messiah‟ and ultimate Antichrist)__________________________________________

On the coattails of the 2012 Olympics in

London, Prince William will emerge as a charismatic

leader.221 His political platform will support world peace and environmental responsibility. Even now the

evidence shows hypocrisy: for a dark read on Prince William and his family‘s occult connections, see Grail Code, by Clinton Ortiz, which is an e-book making a

persuasive case that William is the ‗Antichrist‘ in the upcoming tribulation.222 I agree with Ortiz that

William is the little horn (‗antichrist‘) described prominently in the Book of Daniel and Book of Revelation.223

The little horn of Daniel 7:8 is described in Daniel 7:19-27 as the sovereign who

221 William is also reportedly scheduled to marry Kate Middleton in June of 2012, which will

help draw attention to his royal stature. 222 See also, The Prince William Timeline, by Jane Marchant, for a timeline graph of William‘s rise and fall as Antichrist.

223 My purpose in this thesis is not to unfairly characterize William Windsor. I suppose it‘s

possible the prince is only foreshadowing the real antichrist, or perhaps just being setup to look like

the anti-christ as part of Satan‘s great multi-layered deception. In any case, followers of the Messiah should pray for our enemies, and return good for evil. (Matthew 5:44, Luke 6:27 -36).

Perhaps William‘s lonely fate is prophesied in Daniel 11:45, ―and he plants the tents of his pavilion between the seas in the holy mountain of splendor; and he comes to his end and no one

helps him.‖ This is all the more reason to pray for William‘s salvation and comfort.

tramples Jerusalem in the final days.224

a. Prince William‟s Characteristics Matching The Little Horn

o The little horn is referred to as royalty (―melek‖ = king/sovereign)

in Daniel 8:23, wearing one crown (―diadem‖) in Rev. 12:3, Rev. 13:1.

o Essentially, in the prophecy a ‗head‘ is a nation, and a ‗horn on a head‘ is a king/ruler, and a ‗diadem on a horn or head‘ is a mark of royalty. See also,

Daniel 9:27 and Daniel 11:28-45 (either directly or by foreshadowing) suggesting the ‗false messiah‘

will be royalty. o William‘s royal crest (image on next page) contains all the animals from Daniel‘s

vision of the four-fold creature: lion, bear, leopard, and dragon. Daniel 7:3-7, Rev. 13:2 (―And the living being I saw being the image of a leopard and his feet as of a bear and his mouth as of lions and the Dragon gives him his power and his

throne and great sultanship.‖ William‘s crest (next page) has a lion‘s head with a leopard‘s body and bear feat, and a red dragon.

o There is also a unicorn on William‘s crest with eyes like a man,

and with its tongue sticking out, that correlates to the ‗little horn‘

of Daniel 7:8 (―another little horn ascends between them; in front of whom three of the first horns uproot: and behold, in this horn,

eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth uttering greatly.‖) The design around the unicorn‘s neck is called the ―eldest-son label‖ and has been described as three parallel horns which are, in a

manner of speaking, ‗plucked out by the roots‘ (i.e., turned upside down).225

224 Daniel 7:19-27, ―Then I will to know the certainty of the fourth live being, who is changed

from all the others — exceeding terrifying, — teeth of iron and his nails of copper; who devours, pulverizes and tramples the survivors with his feet; and of the ten horns in his head, and of the

other which ascends, and in front of whom three fall; even of that horn with eyes and a mouth uttering very great; whose vision is greater than his companions. I see, and the same horn makes

war with the holy; and prevails against them; the Ancient of days comes, and gives the pleading

of the cause to the holy of Elyon; and the appointment so happens that the holy hold the sovereigndom. Thus he says, The fourth live being becomes the fourth sovereigndom on earth

which is changed from all kingdoms; and it devours the whole earth, and treads it down, and pulverizes it. And the ten horns from this sovereigndom are ten sovereigns who rise: and another

rises after them — changed from the first; and he abases three sovereigns: and he utters utterances concerning the Elyon and wears out the holy of Elyon; and wills to change

appointments and decrees: and they are given into his hand until a time and times and the

dividing of time. And the pleading is set, and they pass away his dominion, to desolate and to destroy it to the consummation: and the sovereigndom and dominion, and the greatness of the

sovereigndom under the whole heavens, is given to the people of the holy of Elyon, whose sovereigndom is an eternal sovereigndom; and all dominions serve and hearken to him.‖

o As for the red dragon, the layout of the crest reads, ―I serve the red dragon‖ as it says ―ich dien‖ (meaning ―I serve‖ in German, or

―your man‖ in Welsh) immediately beneath a picture of the red dragon. Indeed, the unicorn (little horn) is chained to the image of

the red dragon. And the red dragon is even the very symbol of Wales. Another noteworthy fact is that Prince William‘s nickname in the Royal Air Force is Dragon.226

o Recall that William is part of the beast of the sea - the lion on his

coat of arms has a seashell on the collar. Also, William is in the Royal Navy (the helicopter he flies is called the Sea King), and the U.K. is an island nation.

o The British monarchy emerged directly out of the same Roman empire that crucified Christ. This happened when Britain became a Roman colony in

approximately 55 B.C. (although warring with Rome continued well into the 2nd century).227 The name ―Britain" is derived from "B'rith-ain" which means "covenant land," and ―British‖ means ―covenant man.‖ The British empire

exceeded even the Roman empire in size. There is also some interesting pseudo-legal evidence that the two empires are actually the same empire, such that

London is still a Roman city, and its crown is superior to the crown of Great Britain.228 Moreover, modern day Israel emerged out of Britain when the British military ‗won‘ Israel around 1917, and then turned it over to Jewish authorities in

1948.229

o The primary financial agent and secular control center for the Vatican is the City of London, which is also the Rothschilds'

227 See e.g., Roman Britain, by UNRV History.

228 It has also been said that the British monarchy has been subservient to the Catholic Church since the Treaty of Verona in 1213. And see The 1215 Magna Carta, English Translation

by Xavier Hildegarde. The operative provision in the Magna Carta is section 13 (―And the city of London shall have all its ancient liberties and free customs, by land as well as by water.‖)

banking epicenter.230 The Rothschilds have been the bankers for the Catholic Church since 1823.231 William‘s mentor is David

Manning. William has Rothschild connections through Diana‘s side.232

o The breadth of evil produced by the unholy alliance between the

Vatican and Britain is well documented. 233

o Prince Phillip and Evelyn Rothschild recently established an

Interfaith Declaration for the creation of one world religion. 234

o His name is blasphemous. Rev. 13:1, Rev. 17:3. "Will" means self or self-

determinism, and "I am" is one of the names of the Creator.

o The name William means "conqueror." Compare John 16:33, where the Messiah is said to have conquered the world, ―In the world there be tribulation: but, enhearten! I triumph over the

world.‖

Zionist powers, to deflect attention away from Zionism and almost solely onto the Vatican). See, Rev. 17:16-17 (―And the ten horns you see upon the living being, these hate the whore and work

her desolate and naked and eat her flesh and burn her with fire.‖) – it appears Phelps works for

one of the horns.

William‘s full name is ―William Arthur Philip Louis

Windsor.‖ Phillip means horse lover (which may correlate to the four horsemen of the Apocalypse). Louis means famous warrior (think second seal wars). Arthur means

bear, stone or eagle (all of which imply the typology of the fierce warrior king Arthur – the once and future king.

Windsor means riverbank with a winch, which is relevant to the ‗living beast of the sea‘ connection from Rev. 13.

William has expressed his ambition to fight.235

o ―King of the United Kingdom‖ sounds similar to ―King of Kings,‖

which is one of the messiah‘s titles. (Rev. 17:14, Rev. 19:16). From 1030 B.C. to 931 B.C., under both King David and

King Solomon, Israel was referred to as the United

Kingdom of Israel and Judah (תדחואמה לארשי תכלממ).236

o Secret society

o At age 25, Prince William became the 1,000th

member of Britain‘s most exclusive secret society, the ―Order of the Garter,‖ parts of which are useful

to the military Order of Malta, Committee of 300, and Freemasonry. See, Order of the Garter wiki article.

o Prince Charles is a 33rd degree mason, which

provides the highest level of occult opportunity. Charles appears to have been grooming William for the occult ‗life.‘

o According to some sources, Diana‘s death occurred in the same place as an

ancient ‗goddess Diana sacrifice‘ location - the location of the Pont D‘Alma Tunnel as a sacred site dedicated to the Moon Goddess Diana. Several other circumstances of the death suggest occult connections: crashing into the thirteenth

pillar of the tunnel; the event occurred on August 13 (festival day for goddess Diana was August 31, so an occult sacrifice offering would take place before but

close to the festival day)

o Counterfeit Messiah

o William claims to be a descendant from the line of King David,237 which is the same as Christ238 (the bible says the Messiah would

come from the line of King David). See e.g., 1 Chron. 22:9, 1 Chron. 28:4-5, Ps.132:11, 2 Samuel 7:12, John 7:42.

On June 2, 1953, with the Knights of the Garter carrying the canopy over her head, Elizabeth II was anointed and

crowned as "Queen of thy people Israel". The monarchy claims the throne in the Throne Room in England is the actual throne of King David.239

Note that on February 6, 2012, if she is still on the throne, Elizabeth II will celebrate her Diamond

Jubilee. A series of festivities across the United Kingdom and Commonwealth of Nations would

likely run throughout the year. On the British coat of arms, under the shield is a motto,

"Dieu et mon droit" meaning "God and my right,‖ their attempt to refer to a birthright to the throne.

o William was born at St. Mary‘s hospital in the U.K. The

comparison is that the Messiah‘s mother was named Mary (English

translation).

o If the Antichrist follows the timeline set forth above in section III, then William‘s ages 30-33 (from 2012-2016) would mimic the Messiah‘s ages 30-33 during his ministry and crucifixion. In this

case, William will be 33 years of age when he receives a mortal head wound, comes back to life, and rises to power on earth with

Satan. This is the same age as when Christ was crucified and rose to heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father. Matthew 22:41-45.

o As a matter of thorough scholarship, I must also report academic findings that William‘s facial features match the Shroud of Turin, which may possibly suggest that William is a clone from the blood

of Christ collected from his body after the crucifixion. 240 The

237 See, Davidic Ancestry of Prince William and Harry; Genealogy Chart of the Prince, by Jim

Searcy. 238 Matthew 1:1-17, Luke 3:23-28.

technology for cloning has been public since at least the 1950s, 241 and modern cloning laboratories were present at Cambridge

University (in England) at the time of William‘s conception in 1981. The pioneer of this main program at Cambridge was named

Steen Willadsen242 who specialized in cloning sheep and chimeras (mixed cell beasts).243 244

o Again, as a matter of honest scholarship, I must also report that there is testimony and other bits of evidence (for whatever its

worth) that certain of the British royals believe they are reptile-DNA alien offspring. The most frequently cited source for this evidence is researcher David Icke. With regard to Prince

William, David Icke‘s 'Biggest Secret' contains the transcript of a taped interview with princess Diana's confidant Christine

Fitzgerald, Reptile Windsors and Royal Insider, by Andrew Hennessey; Princess Diana and the Reptiles, from Above Top Secret Forums.

o This whole line of research into reptile aliens in particular is quite thought-provoking, but also fertile ground for

deception - so beware. o Astronomy and Astrology is important to prophecy. Prince William was born on

the Summer Solstice - June 21, 1982. The occult have tried to hijack the significance of this day for dark purposes. Perhaps it‘s also notable that this birth

date would give William the astrological sign of Gemini, which mystics and many others associate with being two-faced (or a twin).

o In 1996, Prince William voluntarily accepted an RFID tracking chip in his right hand. Coincidentally, the bible says the mark of the beast is given in the right

hand or forehead. Rev. 13:16-18. o William‘s brother is named Harry, which reminds of the power struggle between

Esau (meaning ―hairy‖) and Jacob (meaning ―he who supplants‖). William would be Jacob, who is the usurper (supplanter), a substitute. 245 As highlighted above,

241 See, Who‘s Afraid of Designer Babies, by BBC Channel. 242 The name Steen means ―stone,‖ and the name Willadsen meaning ―determination to fight.‖

243 See, Steen Malte Willadsen: Iconoclastic Genius of Cloning, by Gina Kolata. The work of

the Animal Research Station Cambridge, by Chris Polge. Willadsen‘s cattle cloning was made

public a few years later. See, Laboratory Production of Cattle Embryos, by I. Gordon, p. 359 regarding ―Work at Cambridge by Steen Willadsen in the late 1970s.‖

244 There were even detailed laboratory manuals on cloning at this time. See e.g., Molecular

Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, by Maniatis, Sambrook and Fritsch.

the monarchy‘s coronation ceremony revolves around a chair they claim has the ―stone of scone‖ fitted into it (that

would be the same stone Jacob used as a pillow on the night he dreamt of the ladder into heaven with angels ascending

and descending).246

o It is often said that Antiochus Epiphanes (who loved art)

foreshadows the antichrist. Prince William majored in art in college at St. Andrews.

o Diana referred to William as the future King Arthur who

would usher in Camelot. Written on Arthur‘s tomb is ―Hic

Jacet Arthurus, Rex Quondam, Rexque Futurus,‖ which says, ―Here lies Arthur, the Once and Future King."247

o The Heraldic symbol of London is the Great Dragon.

o In the world today, there is a huge movement called ‗British-Israelism,‘ which claims the lost tribes of Israel are scattered throughout the globe and primarily

located in modern-day Europe, America, Africa, and so forth. Unfortunately, researchers of these historical questions often affiliate with hateful white supremacist or black supremacist movements and cults.

o Excerpt from William 2015, by Grace Powers:248

1. Until recently, the ―Stone of Jacob‖ was stored beneath the Queen‘s throne chair and was included

in her 1953 coronation ceremony. Jacob is the Hebrew patriarch whose name was changed to

―Israel‖ (IS-RA-EL). 2. Queen Elizabeth II was crowned at her

coronation ceremony on top of a platform with descending steps on all sides that duplicate an

Egyptian step pyramid. (Fig. 13) 3. The British Monarch‘s crown has 12 colored

stones at the base, each representing the 12 Hebrew tribes of Israel. These

stones are identical to the twelve colored stones worn on the breastplate of Hebrew high priests in ancient Israel.

4. The Union ―Jack‖ flag represents the re-union of the twelve Hebrew

tribes of ―Jacob‖ (Jack) in the British Isles after they were forced to disperse from Israel. The Union Jack is red, white and blue – the same colors as the three Crowns of Egypt.

5. The symbols within the British Coat of

Arms reveal Britain‘s Hebrew origin. According to the Bible, the harp symbolizes the Hebrew King David. The Biblical lion and

unicorn holding up the shield symbolize the nation of Israel. The motto ―dieu et mon droit‖

means ―God and my right‖ indicating the divine ―right‖ of the British Monarch to an eternal throne.

6. The ―royal scepter‖ originates in ancient

Egypt. It was carried by the Egyptian God Amen and by Egyptian Pharaohs who called themselves the son of God (Amen). The royal

scepter is carried by Queen Elizabeth II and contains the world‘s largest cut diamond

called the Star of Africa (Egypt). 7. The symbol of the bee can be found within the Monarch‘s royal

wardrobe. In ancient Egypt, bees were a symbol of royalty and the symbol of Egypt.

8. Dressed in royal attire, the Queen carries a tassled flail or whip which is partially hidden under her arm. The punishing flail or whip also originates

with the pharaohs of ancient Egypt.

9. During the Queen‘s coronation ceremony in 1953, she turned to face the four corners of the globe - north, south, east and west. The orb carried by the Queen represents the globe over which the Monarch rules.

10. The headdress presently worn by judges and the Queen‘s high ranking

officials originate in ancient Egypt. 11. The hymn, ―Zadoc the Priest‖, written by Handel was performed at the

Queen‘s coronation ceremony in 1953. Zadoc the Priest was the Biblical priest who anointed the Hebrew King Solomon while the people cried

―God save King Solomon. May the King live forever.‖ Today, the rendition is ―God Save Queen Elizabeth, May the Queen live forever‖.

12. The Queen‘s coronation gifts of a rod, bracelets and a ring are a re-

enactment of the Bible story of the Hebrew ancestors of Jesus Christ named Judah and Tamar whom she is a descendant of.

13. Incest was practiced by ancient Egyptian royalty. Mothers married

sons. Brothers married sisters to keep the power and money all in the family. Like their Egyptian royal ancestors, the British monarchy also practiced incestuous inbreeding.

14. The Pope‘s headdress is strikingly similar to the headdress of the

Egyptian God Amen. His bent cross resembles the scepter of Amen. 15. Royal jubilees originate in ancient Egypt. Egyptian Pharaohs

celebrated their jubilees after 30 years of rule. In the same tradition, Queen Elizabeth II celebrates her silver and golden jubilees.

16. Like the Egyptian Pharaohs, British monarchs wear signet rings which, over the millennia, have been passed down from their Hebrew ancestors

17. Pleated kilts with aprons like those worn by Prince Charles originate

with the Egyptian Pharaohs. 18. The structure of government in ancient Egypt was a step pyramid

model with the grand vizier and priesthood one step below the Pharaoh. Today‘s Monarch reigns with a grand vizier. His name is Rothschild.

19. The corpses of deceased Pharaohs were preserved and entombed beneath their pyramid temples. The corpses of 19 deceased British

Monarchs are also preserved in marble tomb slabs beneath the modern day temple called Westminster Abbey.

20. The ancient Pharaohs of Egypt advertised their power with their

images on coins, in temples and on stone monuments. The power of

Queen Elizabeth II is advertised worldwide with her image printed on more coins and stamps than any other

Head of State in history.

21. In 2003, the British mint printed legal tender gold coins called ―The One True Ring‖ and ―The Ring of

Power‖. Queen Elizabeth II appears on one side of the coin. On the flip side of

the coin is the ring from ―Lord of the Rings‖. These legal tender coins printed by the British mint raise the question, ―Who is the real Lord of the Rings?‖ The inscription on the ring

reads, ―One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring

them all and in the darkness (of their ignorance) - bind them.‖

22. The covenant that the biblical God gave to Abraham was a promise to make his name ―great‖ and to make for him a ―great‖ nation. Today, Great

Britain is the only nation named ―Great‖.

b. Full Text Scriptures Referring To The Little Horn

The text in bold below refers to the little horn.

Daniel 7:19-27:

―Then I will to know the certainty of the fourth live being, who is changed from all the others — exceeding terrifying, — teeth of iron and his nails of

copper; who devours, pulverizes and tramples the survivors with his feet; and of the ten horns in his head, and of the other which ascends, and in front

of whom three fall; even of that horn with eyes

and a mouth uttering very great; whose vision is

greater than his companions. I see, and the same

horn makes war with the holy; and prevails

against them; the Ancient of days comes, and gives

the pleading of the cause to the holy of Elyon; and the appointment so happens that the holy hold the

sovereigndom. Thus he says, The fourth live being becomes the fourth sovereigndom on earth which is changed from all kingdoms; and it devours the whole earth, and treads it down, and pulverizes it. And the ten

horns from this sovereigndom are ten sovereigns who rise: and another rises

after them — changed from the first; and he abases three sovereigns: and he

utters utterances concerning the Elyon and wears out the holy of Elyon; and

wills to change appointments and decrees: and they are given into his hand

until a time and times and the dividing of time. And the pleading is set, and

they pass away his dominion, to desolate and to destroy it to the

consummation: and the sovereigndom and dominion, and the greatness of the

sovereigndom under the whole heavens, is given to the people of the holy of Elyon, whose sovereigndom is an eternal sovereigndom; and all dominions serve and hearken to him.‖

Daniel 8:5-12, 20-25:

―And I discern, and behold, a buck of the doe goats comes from the dusk on the face of the

whole earth, and touches not the earth: and the buck has a horn of vision between his

eyes: and he comes to the ram master of horns — whom I see standing at the face of the river; and runs to him in the fury of his force:

Page 116: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 115 | P a g e

and I see him touch close beside the ram and he embitters against him; and smites the ram and breaks his two horns: and the ram has no force to stand at his face;

and he casts him to the earth and tramples him: there is no one to rescue the ram from his hand. And the buck of the doe goats greatens mightily: and when he is

mighty, the great horn breaks; and a vision of four ascends toward the four winds of the heavens: and from one of them, comes a little horn which greatens

exceedingly, toward the south and toward the rising and toward the

splendor: and it greatens to the host of the heavens; and it fells some of the

host and of the stars to the earth, and tramples them. Yes, he greatens, even

to the governor of the host; and he lifts249 the continual250 and casts down the

place of the holies: and he gives a host against the continual by reason of

rebellion, and casts down the truth to the earth; and it works and prospers.

And I heard a holy one speaking, and a holy one says to such a one who speaks, How long ere the vision of the continual, and the rebellion of desolating, gives

both the holies and the host a trampling? And he says to me, Until two thousand and three hundred evening mornings; then the holies is justified.251

―The ram you see — the master of horns are the sovereigns of Maday and Persia:

and the buck buck, the sovereign of Yavan: and the great horn between his eyes, the first sovereign; that, being broken, four stand in its stead — four sovereigndoms from the goyim stand — but not in his force. And in the finality

of their sovereigndom, the rebels are consummated, and a sovereign of strong

with lifting up something sacrificed. Cultic Language in Leviticus and Counterfeit Parallels in Daniel 8, by SPV Ministry.

250 The Hebrew word here is ―hattamid,‖ so the English translation ―continual‖ is a

mistranslation. The correct translation is ―daily,‖ as in the daily sacrifice. Identification of Hattamid, by SPV Ministry. For in-depth studies of the Hebrew word meanings in Daniel, see

The Mystery of the ―Daily‖, by John W. Peters; and Miscellaneous articles on Daniel, by SPV

great toward the south and toward the east, and toward the glory. Vs. 10 And it (feminine) became great even to the host of the heavens. And it (fem.) made fall to

the ground (some) from the host and (some) from the stars and trampled them.

Vs. 11 Even unto the Prince of the host he (masculine) exalted himself. And from him (mas.) was lifted up the daily (continuance) and the place of his (mas.) sanctuary was cast down.

Vs. 12 It (feminine) was given even a host against the daily by means of transgression. And it (fem.) cast down truth to the ground and it (fem.) worked and it (fem.) prospered.

Vs. 13 Then I heard a certain holy one speaking and another holy one said to that one who spoke, ‗Until when the vision, the daily and the transgression which desolates making both the

4. The „Living Being From the Earth‟ (Second Beast) Is The Self-

Proclaimed “Catholic Church” and All Associated „Vatican Power Religions‟ (VPRs). And The „Whore of Babylon‟ Who Rides This

Second Beast Is Rome.______________________________________

Revelation Chapter 13 identifies a ‗Living Being From the

Earth‘ (Aramaic translation is ―hayuta seleq men ara”) as a

prominent player serving Satan and the first beast (revived Roman empire) with its little horn (Prince William).

As described below, the Book of Revelation uses many

descriptive terms (especially in Chapters 13, 17, and 18) to identify

this second being/beast as the self-proclaimed Holy Roman Catholic Church (with all its religious appendages, affiliations, and

sub-organizations).

According to various smoking-gun documents and whistleblower accounts over

the centuries, it has been documented that Vatican Power Religions (VPRs) include not just Catholic churches, but also the Vatican exercises pervasive forms of institutional and

financial control over several major Christian, Jewish, and even Muslim religious groups. Indeed, as shocking as it may seem, according to one ex-Jesuit priest, the Vatican-created

Page 118: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 117 | P a g e

Islam in the early years of the Roman Empire.252 This tactic of creating one‘s own controlled-opposition has been a pillar of human history across all

disciplines (military, economic, religious). Although morally pathetic, the tactic has consistently maintained power in Catholic hierarchies (even across

generations).253 254

a. Descriptions of the Second Beast in Revelation Chapter 13

Separate from the first beast. Rev. 13:11 - Aramaic translation is ‗herina’ (meaning another or other).

Correlation – The Catholic Church is a separate legal and political entity beyond

just the idea of separation between church and state. As described above, Vatican City is literally a separate state

with its own government, laws, financing, and police force. Vatican City

never joined the United Nations, and therefore can technically stand separate from the revived Roman Empire that is

forming today as an alliance of nations.

Has two horns like a lamb (Rev. 13:11).

Correlation - The pope‘s tall hat is

actually called the two horned mitre.

Correlation: The two leaders of the

Catholic church are wolves in sheep‘s clothing - generally referred to as the white pope and the black pope. The

white pope is the one people watch on TV as the official pope. The black pope

is the Jesuit General who operates wars, industry, and finances behind the scenes.

Correlation: The Catholic Church claims

two separate forms of sovereignty:

252 See, How The Vatican Created Islam, by Alberto Rivera. And for a list of whistleblowers, see: Vatican and Jesuit Order wiki article.

253 Consider the analogy of four poles and a canvas tent - if Satan stakes four evil poles in

the ground, and then a million different men come along across all walks of life and generations to erect the canvas, those men will be serving evil because they're limited by the poles. The only

solution is to walk away from the project or uproot the poles.

254 Again, my intent with this thesis is not to demonize Catholics. As a youth I was raised

Catholic. I think the Messiah loves all kinds of people, and is calling everyone to repentance. Indeed, Rev. 18:4 appears to be devoted specifically to the repentance of certain chosen ones (―my

peoples‖) in Vatican City, as we read, ―Go from within her, my peoples, that you not partake of her sins.‖

Page 119: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 118 | P a g e

Vatican City and the ―Holy See.‖

Speaks as a dragon (Rev. 13:11)

Correlation - Church dogma promotes dictates like ―papal

infallibility‖ and ―sacred magisterium‖ which claim that the pope is the supreme teacher and his doctrines are

undeniable truth. o Notably, Catholics also like to

joke with one another that most

Catholics don‘t actually read the bible, since you hear enough at

church on Sunday (‗let the priest tell you what the bible says‘). Indeed, for much of early church

history, only certain people were permitted to even own bibles.255

Likewise, Catholic mass has a long history of being conducted in foreign languages

indecipherable to the patrons.

Works the power/office of the first beast, and enslaves the earth‘s inhabitants to worship the first beast, whose plague of death is healed.256 (Rev. 13:12)

Correlation – There is no shortage of evidence showing Catholic cooperation

with nations throughout history to implement holy wars. The Catholic Church was the undisputed ruler over the

dark ages. And today a one-world government agenda appears to be

prominent. 257

Also, according to Daniel 7:25, the beast

―wills to change appointments and decrees.‖ This is often translated as changing holidays and laws, which is

particularly relevant in a foreshadowing

255 See e.g., The Catholic Origins of Futurism and Preterism, by Michael Scheifler.

256 Given the context here, this ‗plague of death that is healed‘ is probably referring to the

head wound from Rev 13:3. (See also, Rev. 13:14).

257 See e.g., Pope Calls for World Political Authority, by Thomas Eddlem, quoting an

encyclical from Pope Benedict, ―There is urgent need of a true world political authority… [and for] 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.‖

Page 120: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 119 | P a g e

sense to the Gregorian calendar, Sunday worship as day of rest, and all sorts of new religious holidays like Easter and

Christmas.

Shows great signs, like bringing fire down from the heavens, which deceives many (Rev. 13:13-14)

Correlation – The Catholic church loves its signs and

miracles.258 Recently, the former pope ‗blessed‘ an olive tree in Jerusalem, and later a forester claimed the tree was

bearing fruit while others around it did not. Pope‘s Tree Flourishes While Others Wither, by Catholic News

Agency.

Tells the people to make an icon/image259 of the first

beast, and then he gives life to it and then requires worship of it, and enslaves and slaughters those who

do not worship it (13:14-15).

Correlation – the Catholic church is notorious for its icon and statute worship.

The most prominent icon in Catholicism is the crucifix, before which Catholics are

instructed to kneel and pray.

Implements the ‗mark of the beast‘ upon the right

hand or forehead (Rev. 13:16-17).

Correlation – Religious people, including

Catholics and Christians, frequently tattoo themselves with crosses and other religious

symbols. This may foreshadow the ease with which Satan will encourage

tattoos during the false messiah reign.

The number of the beast is 666 (Rev.

13:18)260

Correlation – the pope‘s self-proclaimed and blasphemous

258 See e.g., Miracles and Apparitions, by St. Michael‘s Call. 259 Since the Catholic Church claims to be built on an unbreakable rock foundation, and

since the false prophet will be a pope named Peter (meaning rock), I‘ll venture the icon they choose will be made of rock.

260 Due to different ancient manuscripts, there is a debate here on whether the number is 666

or 616. I tend to think the Aramaic 666 is more reliable than the Greek 616.

Page 121: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 120 | P a g e

title of ‗representative of the Son of God‘ is ―VICARIUS FILII DEI,‖ which adds up to 666 using Roman

numerals.261 o From the gospel, it does not appear that Christ

needs a vicar, let alone the religious leader of the most murderous regime in human history. Nor does the bible designate the pope as the successor to

Peter. Nor has there been a clear line of succession of popes. Nor did Peter ever have the right to claim

the right to rule over a universal church. 262

Correlation – 666 also applies to Prince William, as in the

example that should Prince William become King, he would be called King William V. By taking the W as two V's with the I's as Roman numerals for one, they have

constructed the anagram: I AM VI VI VI or I AM Six Six Six (666). Grail Code, by Clinton Ortiz.

Note that 666 can be applied to many people and things, from kings to symbols to bar codes on products.

b. Descriptions of the „Whore of Babylon‟ in Revelation 17-18 point to

the Catholic Church headquartered in Vatican City. 263____________

She is seated above many waters. Rev. 17:1

Correlations: o The bible frequently refers to a city as a woman, as

in the case of Jerusalem. See e.g., Isaiah 54:1, Lamentations 1:1-7, Rev. 17:18.

o Many waters refers to many people (Rev. 17:15), and the Catholic Church claims over one billion followers. The sitting Pope is the 'Pontifex

Maximus' (captain of an artificial ship) - a position passed down from the Babylonian priests to the

Roman Caesars, and then finally to the Catholic popes. 264

261 See, 666 by Presents of God Ministry.

262 See e.g., Apolosticity or Peter‘s Primacy, by J.A. Wylie.

263 Babylon itself refers to Rome. A fitting title and acronym for the whore of Babylon might

be the ‗Holy Order of Rome‘ (HOR). For a history of Babylon, see History of the Empires in Bible Prophecy, by Teaching Hearts Ministry; Mystery Babylon the Great, by Larry Wood.

264 See e.g., The Number of the Beast 666 and Origin (―This meant that the Babylonian religion literally moved into Rome and took it over, becoming head of the Roman government.

This title passed from emperor to emperor, all of whom served as chief priest of the Babylonian Religion from then on until 367 A.D, where the Roman Emperor Gratian became the first since

Julius Caesar to refuse the title Pontifex Maximus. Before Gratian refused the title Pontifex Maximus, the young Emperor bestowed it upon Pope Damasus I, who became the first Pope in

Page 122: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 121 | P a g e

―Mystery! Babel the Great The Mother of Whores and Abominations of the Earth.‖ Rev. 17:5

Correlation - To quote the current pope Joseph Ratzinger, ―̀ It must be always clear that the one, holy, catholic and

apostolic universal church is not the sister, but the mother of all the churches.‖265 Even the word Catholic means ‗on

the whole‘ or universal. What Does the Word Vatican Mean?, by Michael Scheifler. 266

o Note: Many religions recognize the Messiah theme,

so a universal religion would naturally try to appeal to the prophesied return of one from the same body

as the prophets of many religions.267

Correlation – Elsewhere also the bible refers to an apostate congregation/people as a whore. See e.g., Jeremiah 3:1-25,

Ezek. 16:26-32.

A ―great city‖ having sovereignty over sovereigns of the earth. Rev. 17:18.

Correlation – history tends to repeat itself, and throughout

much of history, the Vatican has reigned over the ‗civilized

history to hold the title. This made him head of the Babylonian religion when he took the title of

Pontifex Maximus. Damasus I was the head of the Christian Church in Rome, and took the title as head of the pagan Babylonian Religion and its collection of pagan gods. Did the Babylonian

Religion move into the Christian Church? History says most definitely YES. So why does God call the Papal Church Babylon? The answer should now be clear.‖) See also, Pontifex Maximus

article from Wikipedia. 265 See also, Pope Benedict XVI claims "only true church in the world is that of Catholicism".

Commentary: Pope‘s Comments Irrelevant to Non Catholics , by Roland S. Martin. Or as Pope Boniface VIII, wrote in Unam Sanctam, ―We declare, say, define, and pronounce that it is

absolutely necessary for the salvation of every human creature to be subject to the Roman Pontiff.‖ Salvation Outside the Church?, by Joe Mizzi.

266 From a recent catechism, including changes by Pope John Paul II on 8 September 1997,

here is a quote from Paragraph #841, regarding the Catholic Church's relationship with Muslims,

"The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us

they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day." 267 See e.g., The Four Horsemen, al Mahdi, and the Magnetic Polar Reversal, by Jack Kelley (―As details of Islamic eschatology become more widely known, prophecy students are

discovering a striking similarity between descriptions of al Mahdi, the Moslem Messiah, and a

figure Christians call the anti-Christ. I‘ve made mention of these in previous articles, how both come on the scene during a time of great turmoil on Earth, both come claiming a desire to restore

peace, both have a seven year reign, both head a one world religion and one world government, both claim supernatural origins, and both reigns end in a battle between good and evil that

brings Earth‘s final judgment.‖)

world‘ through its crusades and holy wars and dictates. 268

Whored with all the sovereigns of the earth. Rev. 17:2

Correlation – again, history shows virtually every nation at

some point in its history pandering to the Vatican for political or financial support. Even today, world leaders

frequently pose for photos of themselves kissing the hand of the pope. See e.g., Vatican and Jesuits wiki article.

Clothed in purple and scarlet, and gilded with gold and graced stones and pearls. Rev. 17:4, 18:16

Correlation – Notorious for its pomp and luxury, the Catholic Church ritually clothes itself in purple (i.e. Bishops vestments) and scarlet (i.e., cardinals vestments),

and uses gems and pearls in large quantity in its cathedrals, customized jewelry, statutes of ‗saints‘, and even in papal

tiaras.

Holds a cup of gold full of impurity and abomination, and is

intoxicated from the blood of the holy, prophets, and witnesses of the Messiah. Rev. 17:4-6

Correlation – Catholic mass uses the golden cup (or challis) and repeats every day the ceremony of drinking the

blood of Christ. And as this ceremony has been repeated throughout the ages, so have the inquisitions and holy wars that have claimed the blood of countless followers of the

Messiah. See e.g., Satanism in the Vatican, by Jesus is Savior Ministry.

She sits upon seven mountains, but also waters that are peoples,

congregations, and nations. Rev. 17:9, 17:15

Correlation - Rome is formed by 7 hills, and the Vatican effectively controls Rome.269 Notably, Jerusalem is also

formed by 7 hills,270 and the Vatican has always been trying to put a pope in Jerusalem as a sign of authority.

http://www.bibleplus.org/prophecy/vatican_agmt.htm

Note: By the time the living beast from the land ascends, we might expect it will be operating out of both Jerusalem

and Vatican City.

268 See e.g., One-Evil.org

269 See e.g., What Does the Word Vatican Mean?, by Michael Schiefler; The Vatican Empire,

by Nino Lo Bello; Rome Equals Vatican, by Dave Hunt. 270 See e.g., Who Is the Woman Who Rides the Beast in Revelation 17?, by Dave Hunt.

The ten horns (sovereigns) of the first beast hate the whore. Rev. 17:12, 17:16.

Correlation - The Vatican promotes nonsense, pomp and ritual. In many ways it seems like a mere tool of the self-

proclaimed elite for global enslavement of the populace. Accordingly, should we marvel that these future sovereigns

(enslavers) will also hate their whore and discard her when they‘re finished? For insights into how these occult-serving echelons view the Vatican, see the links and videos

at Grail Code, by Clinton Ortiz. 271

The Rothschilds are the bankers for the Vatican. See e.g.,

Mystery Babylon the Great: Catholic or Jewish, by Barbara Aho.

Merchants and sailors enriched from her madness. Rev. 18:3, 18:19.

Correlation – Throughout history, Catholicism has been a driving economic force with the power to start and end

wars. It is well-documented that the church has wielded massive wealth throughout history through its military conquests.

Glorifies herself and acts not as a widow. Rev. 18:7.

Correlation – As a church, Vatican City is supposed to be married to Christ. And as Christ was crucified she is a

widow. And yet Vatican City lavishes itself with splendor and celebratory festivals.

Burns to the ground in one day / hour and merchants and sailors and sovereigns weep when they see from afar her smoke rising.

Rev. 18:9-10, 17-19.

Correlation – geographically, Rome is the right size and close enough to the sea to be able to readily fit this

description.

Upon destruction, the things not found in her anymore are guitars, psalms, candles, and brides and grooms. Rev. 18:12-13, 18:22-23.

Correlation – This may be one of the more obvious

descriptions that point to Vatican City, with its weddings and masses, especially at St. Peter‘s Basilica.

And ―in her was found the blood of the prophets and of the holy

slaughtered upon the earth.‖ Rev. 18:24

271 Also, regardless of the merit of this post, it seems to capture one mindset (among many) of a Satanist steering toward chaos. Illuminati Reveal Crazy Apocalyptic Agenda, by Henry

Makow. See also, Overlords of Chaos.

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 124 | P a g e

Correlation: Again, the Catholic Church has been

responsible for so much bloodshed throughout history, it‘s an abomination.

c. Catholic Identity (Tragic Beauty)

The word Catholic means ―universal.‖ The self-proclaimed Catholic

Church is actively trying to be the one ‗universal church.‘272 To quote the current pope Joseph Ratzinger, ―It must be always clear that the one, holy, catholic and apostolic universal church is not the sister, but the mother of all the

churches.‖

Notably, the word ‗Vatican‘ is somewhat of a fusion between the word ―hill‖ (or mountain) and ―prophecy.‖ What Does the Word Vatican Mean?, by Michael Scheifler. False prophecy has played an important role in Catholic history, and indeed, Rev 19:20

refers to a ‗false prophet‘ affiliated with the second beast described in Revelation Ch. 13.

Many use the term ―Vatican City‖ interchangeably with ―Holy See,‖ although from a legal standpoint, the two are distinct

entities. The former is a state dating back to 1929, but the latter is a religious order dating

back to the early years of Christianity. See e.g., Vatican City (Holy See), by Flags of the World; Holy See article from Wikipedia.

Notably, the origin of the term ―See‖ in this context comes from the word ―sedes‖ meaning

seat.

d. Catholic Military

The Jesuits273 are the military-arm of the Catholics, and their

commander is called the ‗black pope.‘ In the words of Tupper Saussy, he is ―a military man, a man holding an office that has been known for more than

four centuries as ―Papa Nero,‖ the Black Pope... the House fasces represent the Black Pope, who indeed rules the world.‖ Rulers of Evil, by Tupper Saussy.

The following atrocities have been committed routinely by the

Catholic military during its notorious and ongoing reign: wars, tortures,

272 See e.g., What Does the Word Vatican Mean?, by Michael Scheifler. 273 Jesuits is a shortened name for ‗Society of Jesus.‘

Page 126: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 125 | P a g e

assassinations, kidnappings, ritualistic and sexual abuses, and more. 274

e. Finance – Catholic, Zionist, English Connection

Catholic finance is one of the most challenging subjects to research because of international banking secrecy (not just Vatican secrecy), and also due to the vast amount

of propaganda written over the centuries.275 However, as the Book of Revelation describes, this beast has many heads, not just the Vatican head.

There appears to be an innumerable amount of unholy alliances and wars between the international bankers, the aristocratic Zionists, the Catholic hierarchy, the English

crown, and all manner of secret societies within these groups. 276 In this author‘s opinion, all these roads ultimately lead to Satan though. And each of these groups produces disinformation agents willing to point the finger at one another where convenient. The

resulting confusion and chaos never settles in any generation, because the complex powers that create chaos also profit from chaos. Disorder, riots, and armed revolution all lead to false solutions – more war, more oppressive laws, and more resource domination

by the wealthy. And sadly, this whole research subject of organized crime often gets thrown into the ‗conspiracy theory‘ bin.

With that preface noted, here is some helpful background information:

According to Edmond Paris, in Secret History of the Jesuits, ―The wealth of the Vatican, as we will see, is so vast that in all probability its true worth will

never be known…. Cardinal Vagnozzi [] observed concerning the Vatican's finances: It would take a combination of the KGB, the C.I.A. and Interpol to obtain just an inkling of how much and where the monies are…. Much of the

Vatican's wealth is hidden in holding companies so that it is difficult to come even close in an estimate of its vast wealth.‖

―Early in the 19th century the Pope came to the Rothschild‘s to borrow money.

The Rothschilds were very friendly with the Pope, causing one journalist to sarcastically

say ‗Rothschild has kissed the hand of the Pope... Order has been reestablished.‘ The

274 See e.g., Secret History of the Jesuits, by Edmond Paris; Foxe‘s Book of Martyrs, by John

Foxe. 275 To take just one example, beware the superficial accountings of author Nino Lo Bello, who appears to have been either a Vatican agent or simply an Italian reporter who bought into

Vatican propaganda. It is well known (reported even in Money Week) that the Vatican maintains multiple different financial statements. (See e.g., Does the Vatican Hold Your Mortgage, by

William Thomas, reporting a statement by Cardinal Edmund Szoka, the Vatican‘s unofficial

finance minister, who told Money Week that the Vatican‘s assets total some $5 billion and that Vatican City ―has a separate financial statement.‖)

276 This reminds of the famous verse in Matthew 12:25, that a house divided against itself

cannot stand.

Rothschild's in fact over time were entrusted with the bulk of the Vatican's wealth. The Jewish Encyclopedia, states, ‗It is a somewhat curious sequel to the attempt to set up a

Catholic competitor to the Rothschilds that at the present time (1905) the latter are guardians of the papal treasure.‘277 Researcher Eustace Mullins writes that the

Rothschilds took over all the financial operations of the worldwide Catholic Church in 1823. Today the large banking and financial business of the Catholic Church is an extensive system interlocked with the Rothschilds and the rest of the International

Banking system.‖ Economy, by Watch Unto Prayer Ministry.

Is the Vatican wealthy today, or just its bankers? According to Grace Powers, ―The Vatican rules over approximately 2 billion of the world‘s 6.5 billion people. The

Catholic Church is the biggest financial power, wealth accumulator and property owner in existence and possesses

more material wealth than any bank, corporation, giant trust or government anywhere on the globe.‖ William 2015, p. 31.

However, here is another view: ―While it is true that the Vatican is still a powerful ecclesiastical organization

controlling about 10% of the world's population, and it is true the millions she got as compensation seeded the billions of dollars she is worth today - the real truth is that from the time

of the Lateran treaty [in 1929], the Vatican has been infiltrated and controlled by City of London Corporation Marxist Jewish bankers and their agents headed by the British

sovereign. In other words, the Vatican has had a 'mergers and acquisitions' corporate raid done on her. As the whole world is being 'privatized,' and through the City of London banking 'mergers and acquisitions' policies it is being turned into one Giant Global

Corporation (which includes even the Roman Catholic Church), it is clear that whoever will ultimately head the City Corporation in the future will physically, personally own the

entire world. At present the British Sovereign heads the Corporation.‖ British Freemasonry‘s Control of the Roman Catholic Church, by Derek Ellis.

And here again is Edmond Paris, writing in Secret History of the Jesuits, ―It certainly is easy to direct attention toward the Rothschilds because of their great wealth

and also because they are Jews. What [Gary] Allen fails to see is that every accusation that can be made against the Rothschilds and their allies can also be made against the Vatican with much more weight. The Rothschilds' wealth, although immense, is not in

the same league with the Vatican's. The tentacles of the Rothschilds do not reach into every government on earth with anything approaching the same degree as the Vatican's.

277 See, The Jewish Encyclopedia, vol. 2, p. 497. And opining on this encyclopedia entry, George Armstrong writes, ―If this latter statement is true the Rothschilds control in

addition to their own fortune the immense liquid resource of the Catholic Church, which is second only to the Rothschilds' in wealth and power. It is probably not literally true since the

private banking firm did not do commercial banking. It is likely that the papal treasure is

deposited with the Bank of England or some other bank "front," but even so it contributes to the Rothschild power.‖ The Money Trust, by George Armstrong, p. 42.

The longevity of the alleged conspiracy of the Rothschilds, according to Allen himself, goes back a mere 150 years— again nothing in comparison to the Papacy whose global

ambitions and intrigue go back more than a thousand years. Again the idea of operating on both sides of every major conflict with which Allen charges the Rothschilds can be

seen in the history of Vatican power politics with far greater documentation to support it.‖

Here is Bill Hughes (author of The Secret Terrorists and The Enemy Unmasked), ―Why would the Jesuits use their

implacable enemy, the Jews, to further their designs for world dominion? The Jesuits never do anything out in the open where they can be exposed. If they are recognized as the culprits, they

will be blamed and suffer the consequences, but if they can use someone else as the ‗cause of the world‘s problems‘, especially

an enemy they can destroy in the process, then they have simultaneously accomplished two of their objectives. The Jewish people are the perfect scapegoat. Since the Rothschilds are Jesuit

agents operating under a Jewish cover, using them in forming the Illuminati back in 1776 effectively throws the onus of this conspiracy on the Jews. The Rothschilds are certainly

not the only Jesuit agents that operate under a Jewish front.‖ Stanley Monteith is quoted as follows, ―[S]ome sincere people believe that the

Jews, or the Jewish bankers, are behind the world conspiracy. There are many clues that lead people to that conclusion, but I can assure you that the evidence has been planted to

divert attention away from the truth. That is not to say there are no people of Jewish extraction within the Brotherhood, but those who support the movement have renounced their belief in Judaism, and worship a different god. Anti-Semitism is a trap that has been

baited to lead us away from the truth.‖

―International finance and banking are NOT primarily ‗Jewish‘. Many of the most powerful banking interests in the world are run by ‗Gentiles‘. One of the most powerful forces in international banking is the Knights of Malta, a Roman Catholic military order

controlled by the Jesuit Superior General. Sadly, even a certain segment of the ‗alternative media‘ helps to propagate the LIE that ‗the Jews‘ run international banking.

Interestingly, one of the titles of the Rothschild banking dynasty is ‗Guardians of the Vatican Treasury‘. ‗The Jews‘, as a people, have been used for centuries as a ‗scapegoat‘ by these international banksters and their secret societies, such as the Jesuit-controlled

Knights of Malta. To label ‗the Jews‘ as running banking, Hollywood, etc, is to throw out the proverbial ‗red herring‘ designed to throw us off the scent of the ‗real controllers‘.‖

Darryl Eberhart (Editor of ―Tackling the Tough Topics‖, January 28, 2006). The Conspiracy (Making It Appear ―Jewish‖), by Call to Decision Ministry.

Author Avro Manhattan, a Knight of Malta, appears to be either an anomaly or yet another prominent disinformation agent. In his book, Vatican Billions, he has

reported on a vast amount of organized Catholic Church crimes: Many historians and researchers and one American Congressman stated

that: ‗The Vatican through the Jesuit Order controlling the Illuminati is in

Page 129: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 128 | P a g e

control of the United States Federal Reserve.‘

Quoting a Catholic priest, ―The Catholic Church must be the biggest corporation in the United States. We have a branch office in every

neighborhood. Our assets and real estate holdings must exceed those of Standard Oil, A.T.&T., and U.S. Steel combined. And our roster of dues-paying members must be second only to the tax rolls of the United States

Government.‖

―The Pope doesn‘t have to pray for divine intervention to operate the

levers of economic power – he merely has to give instructions to his officials in the Vatican Bank. Only the pope and a couple of top bank

officers know precise details of its operations… This secrecy is one of the main reasons why few people know that the papacy directs one of the world‘s major financial corporations.‖

―The Vatican has large investments with the Rothschilds of Britain,

France and America, with the Hambros Bank, with the Credit Suisse in London and Zurich. In the United States it has large investments with the Morgan Bank, the Chase-Manhattan Bank, the First National Bank of New

York, the Bankers Trust Company, and others. The Vatican has billions of shares in the most powerful international corporations such as Gulf Oil,

Shell, General Motors, Bethlehem Steel, General Electric, International Business Machines, T.W.A., etc.‖

5. Abaddon-Apollon

There is an ‗angel of the abyss‘ described in Revelation 9:11, ―And they have a sovereign over them — the angel of the abyss — his name in Hebrait, Abadu, and in

Aramit has the name, Apollyon.‖

For a useful discussion between researchers trying to identify this angel referred

to as Abaddon-Apollyon, see Name and Number Forum Post, ―I can assure you that Satan, Abaddon-Apollon, the false prophet, and the human little horn are all separate

entities. Connected, but separate. Abaddon-Apolloyn and the false prophet [also a fallen

Page 130: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 129 | P a g e

angelic] will be destroyed in the lake of fire at Armageddon, and the human component of the little

horn, king of the northern Middle East [the Assyrian] will become bird food along with his human followers.

Satan will not be destroyed in the lake of fire until 1,000 years later after the Lord's millennial kingdom is over. Revelation's progression is very clear on this matter.

―This is the counting of the number 6-6-6 .... not

some method devised for pinning the tail on the ‗antichrist‘. There are three separate entities involved here. Satan, Abaddon-Apollyon, and the little human

horn [king]. All have the common 6, but they are different entities. This is why the number is 6+6+6. The mark of the beast will signify this satanic triad. Satan will give his

power and authority to Abaddon-Apollyon [another fallen angelic who rebelled with Satan against the Lord long ago] for doing his bidding on the earth during the tribulation period. Abaddon-Apollyon is his ‗antichrist‘. He has ruled over 5 human Middle Eastern

dominions in the past for Satan and he will be released from the abyss to rule there again over 2 more successive dominions at the time of the end. Abaddon-Apollyon will in turn

manifest himself in the human little horn so that humans can experience his presence.

―Abaddon-Apollyon is a fallen angelic of the highest order [the destroying angelic

king of the abyss] and he reports to Satan. He is the offset to Michael the archangel who stand's for Daniel's people on the earth, national ethnic Israel. My guess would be that

Abaddon-Apolloyn and the abyss angelics inhabited the pre-Adamite earth, became involved with humans of our kind before the flood, and want it back ..... I am speculating here since the Bible does not give enough detail to be certain about this.‖

B. Interpretative Figures on The Light Side

1. Lamb – Aramaic Translation is „emra

While the second beast is implementing the ‗mark of the beast,‘ the lamb appears at Mount Zion with 144,000 who follow him. Rev 14:1. This lamb is

Yeshua (the Christ, the Messiah) returned to earth. 278 Later, the Messiah arrives to earth with a sword, and a

new name written on his garment, ―Sovereign of Sovereigns and Master of Masters.‖ Revelation 19:16.

Rather than try to describe the Messiah‘s character and purpose in this limited section, I recommend readers immerse themselves

in the gospel. In the meantime though, I will offer that the Messiah instructed us to treat

278 For a detailed analysis on names, please see Perspectives on Alhym (Elohim) Historically

and Today, by Greg Glaser.

Page 131: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 130 | P a g e

others as we would like to be treated: feed the hungry, give water to the thirsty, clothe the naked, comfort the sick, visit the imprisoned. The bible tells us that the Messiah is the

savior of mankind promised by the Father as the fulfillment of the law. The Messiah also instructs us to love the Father with all our heart, mind, and strength. This is what it

means to follow his example. 2. The Woman and Her Son

Revelation 12 describes a sign in heaven - a woman, who births a son prepared to shepherd all peoples with a scepter of iron,

but as a dragon tries to devour this son, the son is seized unto YHVH‘s throne, and the woman flees to the wilderness to be

nourished for 1,260 days. Rev. 12:1-6. Elsewhere in Revelation, the Messiah is the one described

as ruling with a scepter of iron (see Rev. 2:27, Rev 19:5). It might be deducted that the woman who birthed the Messiah is Israel. 279

However, another theory is that the woman is more spiritual in nature – perhaps an Essene- like faith?

The woman is clothed with the sun, and the moon is under her feet, and she has a wreath of 12 stars on her head. Rev. 12:1. 280

After the dragon is cast to earth, he pursues the woman, but she receives two wings of a great eagle to fly her to the desolation, to be nourished for a season and seasons and half a season. Rev. 12:13-

14. After the dragon fails to capture the woman, he goes to battle the rest of the woman‘s seed. Rev. 12:15-17.

3. Two Witnesses

The two witnesses in Revelation Chapter 11

serve YHVH. For analysis of their actions, please see

section III above.

279 In terms of word meaning, in addition to referring to the historical man ‗Israel‘ and historical nation of Israel, the word often means ‗those who obey the Creator.‘

280 The twelve stars upon the woman‘s head are the 12 tribes of Israel, all of whom were born to Jacob, and whose mother is Rachel. Among the world‘s people today, all we know is th at

pretty much everyone can trace roots back to Israel, so there is no logical justification for racism or bigotry of any kind here. (Daniel 9:7) . The Messiah instructed that we are brethren. Matthew

23:8.

Page 132: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 131 | P a g e

Regarding their identity, the Book of Revelation uses the description, ―when clothed in

saq: these are the two olives and the two menorah.‖ Many have speculated the witnesses are Elijah and

Moses returned to earth. See e.g., The Acts of Moses, Elijah and the Two Witnesses, by World News & Prophecy Online.

Recall from Genesis 18-19 the two angels

who served as messengers in Sodom before its destruction. It most likely serves as useful foreshadowing for the two witnesses of Revelation

that the two angels of Sodom were met with mockery and rejection.

The parable of the virgins (Matthew 25:1-13) may also shed some light on the two

witnesses of Revelation. The lamp is the eye that watches for signs of the Messiah‘s

coming. (Matthew 6:22; Luke 11:33-36). The oil that lights the lamp might be the word/gospel. In Revelation, the two witnesses are called the two olives (think, olive oil)

and two menorah (think, lamps). Biblical texts are a witness (oil producing light) that guide us to the Messiah. So by putting the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation (oil) into our eye (lamp), we see the light of two witnesses guiding us to the Messiah.

4. The Angels With Trumpets and Vials

As set forth above, the seven angels who wield the trumpets and vials in the end-of-days are described as messengers of the Messiah.

From the earthly perspective, it‘s difficult to comprehend the actions of angels. Take this example from 1

Kings 22:19-22, ―And he says, Therefore hear the word of Yah Veh: I see Yah Veh settled on his throne and all the host of the heavens stand by him at his right and at his left.

And Yah Veh says, Who entices Ach Ab to ascend and fall at Ramoth Gilad? And this one says thus; and that one says

thus: and a spirit goes and stands at the face of Yah Veh and says, I entice him. And Yah Veh says to him, How? And he says, I go and I become a false spirit in the mouth of all his

prophets. And he says, Entice him and also prevail: Go! Work thus!‖

Ultimately, angels serve.

XVIII. Conclusion

Deuteronomy 4:30-31 warns, ―…when you are in tribulation and all these words

find you — even in the final days, if you turn to Yah Veh your Elohim and hearken to his

Page 133: Watch for Signs - A Thesis on the Book of Revelation

Watch for Signs – A Thesis On The Book of Revelation 132 | P a g e

voice, for Yah Veh your Elohim is a merciful El, he neither lets you loose nor ruins you, nor forgets the covenant of your fathers which he oathed to them.‖

John 16:33, ―I word these to you that you have shalom in me. In the world there

be tribulation: but, enhearten! I triumph over the world.‖
