Overview The purpose of this presentation is to demonstrate that Islam is the religion of the Antichrist and the False Prophet of Revelation. Introduction Antichrist Attributes False Prophet Attributes Satans name in the Bible Meat Sacrificed to Idols Ismael Lion Mecca is Mystery Babylon World Empires of Daniel and Revelation Is the Antichrist a descendant of the Romans? Islam and Nazi Connection 4. Introduction The Bible tells us in the end of times that Satan and two men will rules over the earth and oppress the saints (Christians & Jews) before the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. Interestingly in the Quran the actors are the same but with the exact opposite roles. Lets take a look at the scriptures. 5. Antichrist Attribute #1: Antichrist rides a white horse and has a bow in his hand. Revelation 6:2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer. Ezekiel 39:3 Then I will strike your bow from your left hand, and will make your arrows drop out of your right hand. 6. Fulfillment in Islam Kab al Ahbar (early Muslim transmitter of hadiths): I find the Mahdi recorded in the books of the ProphetsFor instance, the Book of Revelation says: And I saw and behold a white horse. He that sat on himwent forth conquering and to conquer (Izzat and Arif, Al Mahdi and the End of Time, 15, 19) 7. Antichrist Attribute #2: Antichrist will make a fake peace treaty with Israel and will break it. Isaiah 28:14-15 Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem! Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement, when the overwhelming whip passes through it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter; Isaiah 28:18-19 Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be beaten down by it. As often as it passes through it will take you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be sheer terror to understand the message. 8. Fulfillment in Islam: The Mahdi will make a 7 years peace treaty with Israel. There will be four peace agreements between you and the Romans (Christians). The fourth agreement will be mediated through a person who will be from the progeny of Hadrat Haroon (Aaron Mosess brother) and will be upheld for seven years. Tbarani, as related by Hadrat Abu Umamah, as quoted in Zubair, Signs of Qiyamah, 43. 9. Antichrist Attribute #3: Antichrist will rise from the lands once ruled by the Babylonian, Persian and Greek Empires. Revelation 13:2 And the beast that I saw was like a leopard; its feet were like a bear's, and its mouth was like a lion's mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority. 10. Fulfillment in Islam: Today, these same lands are ruled by Islam 11. Antichrist Attribute #4: Antichrist uses beheading as a preferred method of execution Revelation 20:4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast. 12. Fulfillment in Islam: Surah 47:4 When Ye encounter the infidels, strike off their heads. 13. Fulfillment in Islam (2): 14. Antichrist Attribute #5: Antichrist denies that Jesus is the savior, that Jesus is the son of God (Trinity), and that Jesus come in the flesh (God incarnated) 1 John 2:22 Who is the liar but the person who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This one is the Antichrist: the person who denies the Father and Son. 15. Fulfillment in Islam: The Dome of the Rock, build on the Temple mount in Jerusalem:Jesus son of Mary, was only a Messenger of Allah. Allah has no son. It is blasphemy to say he has taken a son. 16. Writing on the outside of the Dome: South Corner: In the name of Allah the Merciful, the Compassionate. There is no god but Allah alone, without partner. Say: He is Allah, One, God, the Everlasting, who has not begotten and has not been begotten. He is without equal. [Qur'an 112] Muhammad is Allah's messenger, may Allah bless him. North-West Corner: to Allah who has not taken a son and who doesn't have any partner in dominion nor any protector out of humbleness. Magnify Him greatly. [Qur'an 17:111] Muhammad is Allah's messenger. East Corner: In the name of God the Merciful, the Compassionate. There is no god but Allah alone, without partner. Muhammad is Allah's messenger, may God bless him. There built this dome the servant of God 17. Writing on the inside the Dome: East Corner: The Messiah Jesus son of Mary, was only Allah's messenger, His word that He committed to Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. Do not say 'three'. Refrain, North-East Corner: it is better for you. For Allah is one god. Glory he to Him -- that He should have a son! To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth. Allah suffices for a guardian *Quran 4:171+. The Messiah will not disdain to be North Corner: God's servant; nor will the angels who are stationed near to Him. Whoever disdains to serve him and waxes proud, He will muster them to Him, all of them. [Qur'an 4:172] 0 Allah, bless your messenger and servant, Jesus North-West Corner: son of Mary. Peace be upon him the day he was born, the day he dies, and the day he is raised up alive. That is Jesus son of Mary, in word of truth, about which they are doubting. It is not for God to take a son. Glory be to Him. 18. Antichrist Attribute #6: Antichrist speaks great blasphemies against God Revelation 13:5-6 And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months. It opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven.Mohammad teaching Jesus, Abraham and other Prophets. 19. Fulfillment in Islam: The Shahada is the slogan of Islam: There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger 20. Antichrist Attribute #8: Antichrist worships a god of fortresses or a god of war. Daniel 11:38 He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these. A god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 21. Fulfillment in Islam: Surah 9:5 fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, torture them, and lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war. 22. Antichrist Attribute #9: The Antichrist has no regard for the desires of women Daniel 11:37 He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all. 23. Fulfillment in Islam: Qur'an (4:11) - (Inheritance) "The male shall have the equal of the portion of two females Qur'an (2:282) - (Court testimony) "And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not found then a man and two women." Qur'an (2:228) - "and the men are a degree above them [women]" 24. Antichrist Attribute #10: Antichrist intends to change the times and the law Daniel 7:25 He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and shall think to change the times and the law; 25. Fulfillment in Islam: The goal of Islam is to implement Sharia law worldwide As well as use the Islamic Hijra calendar, Friday being the sacred day of prayer instead of the Sabbath (Saturday) 26. Antichrist Attribute #11: Revelation 13:4 And they worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it? 27. Fulfillment in Islam: If you see him, go and give him your allegiance, even if you have to crawl over ice, because he is the Vice-regent (Caliph) of Allah, the Mahdi. Ibn Maja, Kitab al-Fitan as quoted in Kabbani. 28. Antichrist Attribute #12 John 16:2 Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. 29. Fulfillment in Islam Quran 9:5 And when the forbidden months have passed, kill the idolaters wherever you find them and take them prisoners, and beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. 30. Antichrist Attribute # 13 Antichrist uses rape as a weapon of war. Zechariah 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 31. Fulfillment in Islam Quran 4:24 Abu Said al-Khudri said: "The apostle of Allah sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of the apostle of Allah were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands who were unbelievers. So Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Quranic verse, "And all married women (are forbidden) unto you save those (captives) whom your right hands possess". That is to say, they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period. 32. Antichrist Attribute #14 Antichrist is called the Son of Destruction 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction. 33. Fulfillment in Islam Mohammad comes from the Hashemite tribe, his descendants are the Hashemite Kings of Jordan & Irak. Antichrist will be a descendant of Mohammad. Umm Salama reported: I heard the Prophet of Allah saying, "The Mahdi will appear from Itrati (my family or progeny), from the descendants of Fatima." (Abu Dawud, Ibn Maja, Al-Haakim, Al-Albany) Hashemite means Destroyer Banu Hashim = Son of Destruction 34. False Prophet Attribute #1: False Prophet will pretend to be Jesus (the lamb of God) Revelation 13:11: Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. 35. Fulfillment in Islam Islam believes that Isa (Jesus): Will come back from heaven, Will be a Muslim and pray behind the Mahdi, Will say that he never died on the cross, Will say that he is not the son of God, Will shatter crosses (destroy the Church), Will kill all dogs and pigs (Christians and Jews). 36. False Prophet Attribute #2: False Prophet conceals his true nature behind a peaceful faade. Revelation 13:11: Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. 37. Fulfillment in Islam: Islam present itself as the religion of peace: 38. False Prophet Attribute #3 Revelation 13:13 It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in front of people. 39. False Prophet Attribute #4: False Prophet will force is followers to receive a mark on their forehead or their right hand Revelation 13:16-18 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666. 40. Fulfillment in Islam: The mark is the number 666 in Greek: Chi Xi StigmaCodex Vaticanus AD 350 41. Fulfillment in Islam (2): Lets compare the Xi Chi Sigma to Arabic words:The bismillah: In the name of Allah 42. Fulfillment in Islam (3): In Islamic logos and banners, the symbols are often flipped, or tilted sideways: 43. Fulfillment in Islam (4): The bismillah and crossed swords are used universally throughout the Muslim world to signify Islam. 44. Fulfillment in Islam (5): According to the Hebrew Lexicon, the Greek word for mark used in Revelation 13 (charagma) denotes something that is worn like a badge Also the phrase right hand in the same verse derives from the Greek, dexios, which can be translated as the right side, or the right arm 45. Why would Muslims want the Mark? The task of the Beast is to distinguish the believers (Muslims) from the non-believers, with Prophet Moses staff it will draw a line on the forehead of every believer (Muslim) whereby his face will become bright and luminous and with the ring of Solomon it will seal the nose of every non-believer whereby his whole face will become black. Thus there will be complete distinction between the Muslim and the non-Muslim, so that if many parties sit at a diner table, the Muslim and non-Muslim will be distinguished (Hadith reported by Abdullah-bUmar, Sahih Muslim). 46. Why would Muslims want the Mark? Mohammad himself stated that at Judgment Allah brings forth a badge or mark that he gives to the Muslim and written across it is There is no god but Allah and Mohammed is his Messenger. This badge/mark will save the Muslim from damnation and must be worn on the right arm/hand (Tirmuthi 2369) 47. Fulfillment in Islam (6): 48. Fulfillment in Islam (7): Allahu Akbar = Allah is Great 49. Fulfillment in Islam (8) The Quran, 666, was sent down through Prophet Muhammad (G.V. 92) and its mathematical miracle was revealed through Rashad Khalifa. 50. Fulfillment in Islam (9) Mahdis name in the Prophets Mosque, Medina: 51. Fulfillment in Islam (10) 52. Dragon & Beast Worship: Revelation 13:4 And they worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it? 53. Worship in the Greek Text The word for worship in Revelation 13:4 is proskune () Strongs Translation: to fawn or crouch to, i.e. (literally or figuratively) prostrate oneself in homage (do reverence to, adore) Thayers Translation: 1) to kiss the hand to (towards) one, in token of reverence 2) among the Orientals, esp. the Persians, to fall upon the knees and touch the ground with the forehead as an expression of profound reverence 3) in the NT by kneeling or prostration to do homage (to one) or make obeisance, whether in order to express respect or to make supplication 54. Fulfillment in Islam: Salat is the proper way of worship: 55. Image of the Beast #1 Revelation 13:14-15 and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived. And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 56. Image of the Beast #2 1.3 Billion Muslims, bow down 17 times a day in 5 prayer sessions facing the Kaaba in Mecca. The Black Stone on the eastern corner of the Kaaba The Kaaba 57. Image of the Beast #3 The Kaaba is a Tent, the Black Stone is a meteorite (a fallen star). 58. Image of the Beast #4 Black Stone origin: Islamic tradition holds that the stone fell from heaven to show Adam and Eve where to build an altar. Muslims believe that the stone was originally pure and dazzling white , but has since turned black because of the sins of the peoplethe Black Stone absorbs sin. Satan is the star falling from heaven: Luke 10:18 And he said to them, I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Isaiah 14:12 How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low! 59. Image of the Beast #5 Acts 19:34-35 But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all cried out with one voice, Great is Diana of the Ephesians!. And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, Men of Ephesus, who is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great Diana, and of the sacred stone that fell from the sky? 60. Image of the Beast #6 Diana/Artemis was the Moon Goddess. Great is Diana of the Ephesians! Allahu Akbar = Allah is great 61. Image of the Beast #7 Islam worship is based on Babylonian symbolisms and worship of the Sun, Moon and Stars. 62. Image of the Beast #8 63. Image of the Beast #9 64. Image of the Beast #10 The Kaaba Stone is called the Right Hand of God, It is placed in the eastern corner wall of the Kaaba. The Bible says that Jesus is the right Hand of YHVH and the corner stone. Psalm 118:16 The Right of YHVH is exalted: the right Hand of YHVH doeth valiantly Psalm 110:1 YHVH said unto my Lord, sit thou at my Right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. Ephesians 2:20 Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone 65. Image of the Beast #11 It is said that the Kaaba stone take away sins if you touch it. 66. Image of the Beast #12 It is said that in the last days the Kaaba stone will talk to the Muslims.Revelation 13:15 The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 67. Image of the Beast #13 Islamic eschatology declares that the Mahdi will destroy Mecca and Medina and move the Kaaba Stone to Jerusalem.Daniel 9:27; 11:31; 12:11 & Matthew 24:15-22 the Abomination of Desolation is set up on the temple Mount in Jerusalem. The word for abomination is Shiqquts in Hebrew and means idol. 68. Sun Symbols on the Kaabas doors 69. Sun Worship in Mecca Sculpture of the word Allah with Sun Rays in Mecca 70. Islam 5 Prayer Times are according to the position of the Sun: 71. Satans Name #1: Strongs Hebrew dictionary: Alah, an imprecation, curse, cursing, execration, oath, swearing. Genesis 3:14 The Lord God said to the serpent, Because you have done this, cursed (Alah) are you above all livestock and above all beasts of the field; on your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. 72. Fulfillment in Islam : Alah in Hebrew and Allah in Arabic are the same word. The word Allah in Arabic: 73. Satans Name #2 : Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole worldhe was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. 74. Fulfillment in Islam Allahu Akbar = Allah is Great or Allah is the greatest. Sura 3:54 But they were deceptive, and Allah was deceptive, for Allah is the best of deceivers 75. Satans Name #3: Isaiah 14:12 How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low! The Hebrew words use for Satan are Heylal Ben Shahar. Heylal translate as morning star Shaharon comes from the root shar, which mean crescent moon Thus Satan/Lucifer actually mean morning star/crescent moon 76. Fulfillment in Islam: The Crescent moon and star is found on top of Mosque, minarets and on many Muslim nation flags.TurkeyTunisiaPakistanAlgeriaAzerbaijanMauritaniaUzbekistan 77. Baal Worship Crescent Moon and Star was used in Baal worship: 78. Meat sacrificed to Idols Antichrist will force everybody to eat meat sacrificed to Allah. Acts 15:29 that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell. Acts 21:25 But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. 79. Meat sacrificed to Idols (2) 1 Corinthians 10:20-22 No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he? Revelation 2:14 But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, so that they might eat food sacrificed to idols and practice sexual immorality. Revelation 2:20 But I have this against you, that you tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and seducing my servants to practice sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols. 80. Fulfillment in Islam Muslims can only eat Halal meat. In order for meat to be Halal, the animal as to be slaughtered facing Mecca and a prayer must be said over it: Allah is great and greater than all other gods (Allahu Akbar). 81. Fulfillment in Islam (2) Interestingly Halal in Arabic is the translation of Heylal in Hebrew. Heylal is the morning star of Isaiah 14:12. 82. Ishmael Lion Revelation 17:3 And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns.Ishmael Lion 83. Ishmael Lion (2) Calligraphy is very important in Islam. It uses both Quran verses and names of Allah to create images of animals. The most popular image is the Ishmael Lion, not only does it represent a man Ishmael the founder of their race, but also a wild beast, which bears a striking resemblance to the Beast described by John. 84. Mecca is Mystery Babylon 85. Middle East Map .Ancient Babylon JerusalemMystery Babylon 86. Fallen, Fallen is Babylon Isaiah 21:1 The oracle concerning the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the Negeb sweep on, it comes from the wilderness, from a terrible land. 11 The oracle concerning Dumah. One is calling to me from Seir, Watchman, what time of the night? Watchman, what time of the night? 13 The oracle concerning Arabia. In the thickets in Arabia you will lodge, O caravans of Dedanites. 14 To the thirsty bring water; meet the fugitive with bread, O inhabitants of the land of Tema. 16 For thus the Lord said to me, Within a year, according to the years of a hired worker, all the glory of Kedar will come to an end. 17 And the remainder of the archers of the mighty men of the sons of Kedar will be few, for the Lord, the God of Israel, has spoken. 87. Isaiah 21 Map . SeirBozrahDumahTemaDedan KedarHazor 88. Key Cities and Area Seir = Petra Area, Jordan Bozrah = Busaira, Jordan, used to be the capital of Edom Dedan = Al Ula, Saudi Arabia Tema/Teman = Tayma, Saudi Arabia Hazor = Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, used to be called Hajr, many caves in its vicinity Kedar tribe = Khaybar village, Saudi Arabia 89. Isaiah 13 Isaiah 13:1-22 The oracle concerning Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz sawAnd Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the splendor and pomp of the Chaldeans, will be like Sodom and Gomorrah when God overthrew them. It will never be inhabited or lived in for all generations; no Arab will pitch his tent there; 90. Ezekiel Ezekiel 25:13 therefore thus says the Lord God, I will stretch out my hand against Edom and cut off from it man and beast. And I will make it desolate; from Teman even to Dedan they shall fall by the sword. 91. Jeremiah 49 Jeremiah 49:7 Concerning Edom. Thus says the Lord of hosts: Is wisdom no more in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished? 8 Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of Dedan! For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time when I punish him 20 Therefore hear the plan that the Lord has made against Edom and the purposes that he has formed against the inhabitants of Teman: Even the little ones of the flock shall be dragged away. Surely their fold shall be appalled at their fate. 21 At the sound of their fall the earth shall tremble; the sound of their cry shall be heard at the Red Sea. 92. Jeremiah 49 Jeremiah 49:28 Concerning Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck down. Thus says the Lord: Rise up, advance against Kedar! Destroy the people of the east! 29 Their tents and their flocks shall be taken, their curtains and all their goods; their camels shall be led away from them, and men shall cry to them: Terror on every side! 30 Flee, wander far away, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of Hazor! declares the Lord. For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has made a plan against you and formed a purpose against you 33 Hazor shall become a haunt of jackals, an everlasting waste; no man shall dwell there; no man shall sojourn in her. 93. John in Revelation Revelation 14:8 Another angel, a second, followed, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality. 94. The Great Prostitute and the Beast: Revelation 17:1-18 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, Come, I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who is seated on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality, and with the wine of whose sexual immorality the dwellers on earth have become drunk. And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns. The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and jewels and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality. And on her forehead was written a name of mystery: Babylon the great, mother of prostitutes and of earth's abominations. And I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of the martyrs of Jesus And the woman that you saw is the great city that has dominion over the kings of the earth. 95. Mecca means Mother 96. The Fall of Babylon Revelation 18:2 And he called out with a mighty voice, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place for demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable beast. For all nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich from the power of her luxurious living. 97. Sea trade Revelation 18:17 And all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off 18 and cried out as they saw the smoke of her burning, What city was like the great city? 19 And they threw dust on their heads as they wept and mourned, crying out, Alas, alas, for the great city where all who had ships at sea grew rich by her wealth! For in a single hour she has been laid waste. 98. The Red Sea is the busiest ship crossing in the world: 99. Middle Eastern People still throw dust on their head as a sign of mourning: 100. Conclusion Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and John all agree, Mystery Babylon is: a city, located in the Saudi Arabia desert, by the Red Sea, the center of the false religion (describe spiritually as sexual immorality). Only Mecca meets all this requirements 101. World Empires of Daniel: 102. Daniel 2:40-43 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as ironfor iron breaks and smashes everythingand as iron breaks things to pieces, so it will crush and break all the others. Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay. 103. A Kingdom Mixed Interestingly in Hebrew the word Mixed is Arab 104. Daniel 7:2-7 2 Danielsaid: In my vision at night I looked, and there before me were the four winds of heaven churning up the great sea. 3 Four great beasts, each different from the others, came up out of the sea. 4 The first was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a human being, and the mind of a human was given to it. 5 And there before me was a second beast, which looked like a bear. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. It was told, Get up and eat your fill of flesh! 6 After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, one that looked like a leopard. And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. This beast had four heads, and it was given authority to rule. 7 After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beastterrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns. 105.

World Empires of Revelation: Revelation 17:9-13 This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated; they are also seven kings, five of whom have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he does come he must remain only a little while. As for the beast that was and is not, it is an eighth but it belongs to the seven, and it goes to destruction.

They lay crafty plans against your people; they consult together against your treasured ones. They say, Come, let us wipe them out as a nation let the name of Israel be remembered no more! For they conspire with one accord; against you they make a covenantthe tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites, Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; Asshur also has joined them; they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. Selah Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon, who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground. Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, who said, Let us take possession for ourselves of the pastures of God. O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind. As fire consumes the forest, as the flame sets the mountains ablaze, so may you pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your hurricane! Fill their faces with shame that they may seek your name, O YHVH (Lord). Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever let them perish in disgrace, that they may know that you alone whose name is YHVH (the Lord), are the Most High over all the earth. 133.

Ezekiel 30 The word of YHVH (the Lord) came to me: 2 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says YHVH (the Lord) God: Wail, Alas for the day! 3 For the day is near, the day of YHVH (the Lord) is near;it will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations. 4 A sword shall come upon Egypt, and anguish shall be in Cush, when the slain fall in Egypt, and her wealth is carried away, and her foundations are torn down. 5 Cush, and Put, and Lud, and all Arabia, and Libya, and the people of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword. 137. Ezekiel 32 17 In the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of YHVH (the Lord) came to me: 18 Son of man, wail over the multitude of Egypt, and send them down, her and the daughters of majestic nations, to the world below, to those who have gone down to the pit: 19 Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and be laid to rest with the uncircumcised. 20 They shall fall amid those who are slain by the sword. Egypt is delivered to the sword; drag her away, and all her multitudes. 21 The mighty chiefs shall speak of them, with their helpers, out of the midst of Sheol: They have come down, they lie still, the uncircumcised, slain by the sword. 22 Assyria is there, and all her company, its graves all around it, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, 23 whose graves are set in the uttermost parts of the pit; and her company is all around her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who spread terror in the land of the living. 24 Elam is there, and all her multitude around her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who went down uncircumcised into the world below, who spread their terror in the land of the living; and they bear their shame with those who go down to the pit. 25 They have made her a bed among the slain with all her multitude, her graves all around it, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for terror of them was spread in the land of the living, and they bear their shame with those who go down to the pit; they are placed among the slain. 26 Meshech-Tubal is there, and all her multitude, her graves all around it, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for they spread their terror in the land of the living. 27 And they do not lie with the mighty, the fallen from among the uncircumcised, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon their bones; for the terror of the mighty men was in the land of the living. 28 But as for you, you shall be broken and lie among the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword. 29 Edom is there, her kings and all her princes, who for all their might are laid with those who are killed by the sword; they lie with the uncircumcised, with those who go down to the pit. 30 The princes of the north are there, all of them, and all the Sidonians, who have gone down in shame with the slain, for all the terror that they caused by their might; they lie uncircumcised with those who are slain by the sword, and bear their shame with those who go down to the pit. 31 When Pharaoh sees them, he will be comforted for all his multitude, Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword, declares the Lord God. 32 For I spread terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid to rest among the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword, Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord God. 138.

Malchus, king of Arabia, sent a thousand horsemen, besides five thousand footmen, the greatest part of which were archers (Flavius Josephus, The War of the Jews) This force was accompanied by a strong contingent of Arabs, who hated the Jews with usual hatred of neighbors (Cornelius Tacitus, The History) The people that destroyed Jerusalem and the temple mostly were from Turkey, Syria, and Arabia. 145. Is the Antichrist a descendant of the Romans (5)? What about the general? Yes, Titus was a Roman, but he gave the precise order to not destroy the temple: Titus supposing what the fact was, that the house itself might yet be saved, he came in haste and endeavored to persuade the soldiers to quench the fireyet were their passions too hard for the regards they had for Caesar, and the dread they had of him who forbade them, as was their hatred of the Jews, and a certain vehement inclination to fight them, too hard for them alsoAnd thus was the Holy House burnt down, without Caesar approbation (Flavius Josephus, The History of the Destruction of Jerusalem). 146.

But he does not so intend, and his heart does not so think; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off nations not a few; Isaiah 14:24-25 The Lord of hosts has sworn: As I have planned, so shall it be, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand, that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains trample him underfoot, and his yoke shall depart from them, and his burden from their shoulder. Isaiah 31:8-9 And the Assyrian shall fall by a sword, not of man; and a sword, not of man, shall devour him; and he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be put to forced labor. His rock shall pass away in terror, and his officers desert the standard in panic, declares the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and whose furnace is in Jerusalem. 147. Is the Antichrist a descendant of the Romans (7)? Isaiah 52:3-4 For thus says the Lord: You were sold for nothing, and you shall be redeemed without money. For thus says the Lord God: My people went down at the first into Egypt to sojourn there, and the Assyrian oppressed them for nothing. Micah 5:5-6 And he shall be their peace. When the Assyrian comes into our land and treads in our palaces, then we will raise against him seven shepherds and eight princes of men; they shall shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod at its entrances; and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian when he comes into our land and treads within our border. 148.

Nevertheless, Kain shall be burned when Asshur takes you away captive. And he took up his discourse and said, Alas, who shall live when God does this? But ships shall come from Kittim and shall afflict Asshur and Eber; and he too shall come to utter destruction. 149. Is the Antichrist a descendant of the Romans (9)?

For behold, I am calling all the tribes of the kingdoms of the north, declares the Lord, and they shall come, and every one shall set his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, against all its walls all around and against all the cities of Judah. Daniel 11:40 At the time of the end, the king of the south shall attack him, but the king of the north shall rush upon him like a whirlwind, with chariots and horsemen, and with many ships. And he shall come into countries and shall overflow and pass through. 151. Is the Antichrist a descendant of the Romans (11)? Ezekiel 38:6 Gomer and all his hordes; Beth-togarmah from the uttermost parts of the north with all his hordesmany peoples are with you.

Winston Churchill on Islam: "How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome." Sir Winston Churchill, 1899; (Source: The River War, first edition,Vol. II, pages 248-50 London) 164. The Supreme Court of Russia on the Muslim Brotherhood: Muslim Brotherhood is an organization, basing its activities on the ideas of its theorists and leaders Hassan al-Banna and Sayyid Qutb with an aim of destruction of non-Islamic governments and the establishment of the worldwide Islamic government by the reconstruction of the "Great Islamic Caliphate"; firstly, in regions with majority of Muslim population, including those in Russia and CIS countries. The organization is illegal in some Middle East countries (Syria, Jordan). The main forms of activities are warlike Islamism propaganda with intolerance to other religions, recruitment in mosques, armed Jihad without territorial boundaries.
