Pope Leo 14 is a sign of the End Times

Brief Summary

2025 saw the winds of change blowing through the world's economic realities. People are struggling and worried.

Babylon enforced their religious beliefs with military and financial power.

Nebuchadnezzar wanted to kill three Jews who refused to bow to his massive golden Idol.

Babylon was the head of gold in Nebuchadnezzar's Gentile image. Money has always been the Gentile's goal in life.

Roman Catholicism is Mystery Babylon, waiting for enough money and military power to enforce their beliefs on everyone.

America has been too powerful since the end of World War 2. So, the Catholics never dared choose a Pope from there. Even they knew that would give the Pope too much power.

In 2025 the tide has suddenly turned as things changed. The Vatican is short of money. A pleasant American fund-raiser is rapidly confirmed in two days as Pope by the Council of Cardinals. What we would call a rigged election. But he had served as a missionary for 20 years in poverty stricken areas of Peru, in South America.

An American, Pope Leo 14, now controls the biggest church (white horse).

Another American, President Trump controls  the biggest economy (black horse).

In addition, America has by far the strongest military (red horse).

America is destined to enforce a Confederation of churches (pale horse) to unite and be submissive to the Roman Catholic denominational church system, that is unscriptural.

The aim is a One-World Church under the Pope that rules the world.

Pope Leo (leo means a lion) is the mouthpiece of the roaring lion of religious deception. The white horse.

The beast is the spiritual power of the Roman Catholic church.

The Pope is regarded as being infallible by his followers. Catholics regard the Pope as being the "Voice of God".

Message-people who claim to follow William Branham make the same mistakes. But there is no “Voice of God” in the New Testament.

America is the world's biggest economy as the modern-day black horse when they give their economic power in support of the Pope. They also give financial life to the image of the beast, the Confederation of non-Catholic churches.

America will provide the necessary muscle for the Catholic church organization which is the beast from the sea.

America is the strongest military power as the modern-day red horse. If they give their military power in support of the Pope, nobody will then dare attack the Pope.

REVELATION 13:4  "Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?”

Mixing up the Catholic church-organization power (the white horse) and American financial power is a dance of spiritual death.

When America collapses due to some natural disaster, the Catholic church will rule America.

White, red, and black colours are merging to produce the pale horse of Revelation 6 whose antichrist rider is Death.

Consider 5 Popes named LEO

The Vatican needs money. America is the wealthiest nation.

In 2025, a high-speed election by the Cardinals chose an American Pope to hopefully raise big money from the American Catholics. Modern day churches are all about money.

REVELATION 3:14  “And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; 

REVELATION 3:17  “Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;

A Pope from America puts too much power into the hands of one country.

Church power and political power should be kept separate.

An American Pope and an American President rule the biggest church and the strongest country.

The two beasts, from sea and earth in Revelation 13, are starting to merge.

In 1933, William Branham saw his sixth vision which showed Vatican City, the nerve centre of the Roman Catholic church, as a beautiful but cruel woman who would eventually rule and ruin America.

Pope Leo 14 chose the name of Leo which links him to some badly motivated Popes from the past.

Pope Leo 1 (AD 440 – 461) demanded that the Pope be head of all the churches and he condoned killing dissenters to achieve this aim.

It was during Leo's papacy that the term "Pope", which previously meant any bishop, came to exclusively mean the Bishop of Rome.

Pope Leo 1 made the earliest moves to establish the Pope as the head of all the churches.

Pope Leo 1 commended the Roman Emperor for torturing and executing heretics on behalf of the Church.

By 447, Leo 1 declared that heretics deserved the most severe punishments. The Pope justified the death penalty declaring that if the followers of a heresy were allowed to live, that would be the end of human and Divine law.

The legacy of Pope Leo 1 is that the Pope must be the supreme head of all the churches, even if it means killing dissenters.

Pope Leo 4 (AD 847 – 855) built a wall around the Vatican to protect it and make it Vatican City.

When a wall was put up around buildings, they were called a City.

A church is symbolized by a woman. The woman (church) of Revelation 17 is a City.

Thus Vatican City, as the nerve centre of the Roman Catholic Church, will finally rule the world.

REVELATION 17:18  “And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.”

Vatican City is the City-church, established by Pope Leo 4, that is condemned in Revelation 17.

Pope Leo 10 (1513 -1521) violently opposed the Reformation of Martin Luther and greedily sold forgiveness of sins.

His greed to raise and collect money sparked the Reformation. Accumulation of wealth was his obsession.

The name Leo: especially Leo 10—is not just a name; it’s a dark echo of papal arrogance and the violent suppression of the true Gospel. The pope who excommunicated Martin Luther and sold salvation to fund the building of St. Peter’s Basilica (fancy big church) and paint the Sistine Chapel.

The black lines represent the wall that Pope Leo 4 built around Vatican City.

Leo 10 claimed that St Peter’s church (shown in red) symbolizes the keys that Jesus gave to Peter.

He claimed that you can only be saved if you are in obedience to the Pope who is Peter’s successor.

Basilica comes from Basilisk, also known as the king of serpents. He could kill you just by looking at you.

Notice how the hidden outline of a king serpent wearing a crown on his imagined triangular head with two eyes, is hidden away in the aerial view of St Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican.

The modern-day Pope’s Audience Hall is designed to look like the serpent’s head.

This is the view from inside. Notice the two snake teeth between the two snake eyes.

For 500 years the Vatican has had an obsession with the head of the king serpent.

Leo 10  was the first Pope described as a child rapist. He was notoriously corrupt.

Thus, he effectively declared himself in the place of God because only God can forgive sins.

His greed made him a huge money collector.

In 1516 Pope Leo 10 issued a papal bull which forbade preachers to touch on the subject of the antichrist in their sermons (M’Crie, Reformation in Italy, p. 20)!

He was scared of what Revelation 17 said about the church (woman) on seven hills.

Pope Leo 10 condemned Martin Luther in 1520 for daring to say that burning heretics was against the will of God. Pope Leo 10 condemned the idea of salvation by faith alone.

His legacy was for the Catholic church to condemn certain Bible truths and rely on the accumulation of huge wealth by taking God’s place on earth.

Pope Leo 12 (1823 - 1829) believed that the Roman Catholic church should rule the whole world. That remains their basic goal. Leo 12 struck this Medal in 1825.

The Catholic church offers the same cup of doctrine that the whore of Revelation 17 offers.

This Medal seems to be prophetically accurate.

REVELATION 17:1   "I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:”

REVELATION 17:15  “And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.”

The waters are the nations of the whole world that the Roman Catholic church dominates.

The seven spikes on her head represent the seven church ages that the Catholic church has tried to dominate.

REVELATION 17:4  “And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:”

The Statue of Liberty in America has 7 spikes on her head (representing sun rays). Copied from the Medal of Leo 12.

This shows the link between the Pope and America has a long history.

The Capitol Building is the seat of the USA Congress where American Law is passed.

The Capitol has copied the dome and the pillars from St Peter's church in the Vatican.

The Capitol in America and the Capitoline Hill in Rome. Again, an obvious link.

The Capitoline Hill is one of the seven hills on which Rome was built.

The Capitoline Hill was seen as the epicenter of the Roman Empire.

Because of this, the Romans named the hill "caput mundi", meaning ‘head of the world’ in Latin.

This statement below is carved on the Lateran Palace, the official headquarters of the Roman Catholic church.

“Sacred Lateran church. The mother and head of all churches of the city and of the world.”

A mother is linked to seven heads (seven hills) in Revelation 17.

REVELATION 17:5  “And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.”

The Protestants are the daughter churches of the mother Roman Catholic church. Both mother and daughter are harlots.

That tells us something about the state of the churches today where people gather, hoping for safety from God's wrath.

Pope Leo 14. (2025 -  )

Pope Leo 14, an American, will set things in motion for the Roman Catholic church, somehow, eventually to rule America as a key step to ruling the world.

He will orchestrate the first tremors of a huge impending shockwave that will finally lead to Armageddon.

The Roman Catholic church is Mystery Babylon. Rome hides a dark mystery.

Leo 14 is not the last Pope as the last Pope will not be elected by the Council of Cardinals.

DANIEL 11:21  “And in his estate shall stand up a vile person,

to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom:

Babylon had always used dictatorial force to impose their own version of religious belief.

The beast from the sea is the succession of Popes.

REVELATION 17:8  "... when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.”

Catholics claim Peter was the first Pope. Thus there always "was" a Pope.

The Pope dies "and is not".

"And yet is" as a new Pope is elected to succeed him. The SUCCESSION of Popes will survive to the end.

The final Pope, the man of sin, will rule the world.

This looks like the "trail of the serpent" waiting for their evil head, the final Pope.

When you deal with a snake, you are only concerned with one part of the snake: its head.

That is the dangerous part because it has poison in its mouth. (preaching unscriptural beliefs).

The power of the Catholic Church will increase until it has the power to kill dissenters, as revealed in the Fourth Seal where the antichrist-spirit-rider is revealed as Death.

REVELATION 6:8  “And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.”

A fourth part of the 2025 world population of 8 billion is 2 billion.

2 billion killed in the 3½ years of great tribulation by the Catholic church.

That means 1½ million have to die every day, on average.

The final head of the snake will be deadly.

Only the Bible is the Voice of God. The Bible never says, “The antichrist”.

The Bible speaks of "the man of sin".

II THESSALONIANS 2:3  “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;”

Merchandise is to buy and sell goods for self-gain

2020 saw the COVID-19 pandemic or pestilence break up world supply chains.

2022 saw Russia attack Ukraine.

2023 saw Hamas attack Israel and Yemen attack ships in the Red Sea.

2025 saw huge trade wars break out starting with America and China.

Much financial insecurity threatens the world.

International trade and the buying and selling of goods now occupies the headlines.

Speaking of Lucifer, the greatest angel originally in Heaven, who was dissatisfied despite having more talents than the other angels. Obsessively greedy for gain, he wanted to take God’s place.

EZEKIEL 28:16  “By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned:”

Merchandise is the buying and selling of goods for self-gain. That is the mentality that enabled sin to enter.

Giving to a greedy person is just putting dry branches on a flame. The flame of greed burns more intensely and easily ignites violence.

ISAIAH 14:12  “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”

:13  “For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:”

:14  “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.”

Lucifer’s big sin. Pride. Ambition. Trying to be like God.

(Pope Leo 1 trying to be the head of the church. But Jesus is the head of the church.

Pope Leo 10 selling indulgences as if he were able to forgive sins. Only God can forgive sins).

In the beginning, Lucifer was in the business of hunting souls to uplift him with their praise and adoration.

Created beings love self-glorification and being elevated as better than others.

In the end, during the 3½ years of great tribulation, merchandising of the manufacturing industry will be the centre of world trade.

Everyone will have to belong to the image of the beast (the Confederation of churches) if they hope to be part of the One World economic system that the final Pope, the man of sin, will set up.

DANIEL 8:25  “And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many:

“Craft” is handicraft. Manufacturing.

Error starts with peace. Mistrust worldly peace. We drop our guard and are easily overcome by the Devil, who is unscriptural.

Be very careful when worldly peace is declared in these end times, it is often just the calm before a more violent storm.

63-0318 — THE FIRST SEAL

“And now, when she does this, and makes this covenant, we notice, in Daniel 8:23 and 25, “he will cause craft to prosper,” and craft is manufacturing, “in his hand.”

And, the midst of this, three-and-a-half years, he breaks his covenant, as soon as he gets the thing wrapped up, and gets the money of the Jews tied up. And when he does that…Oh, my! Oh, my!”

In 1933, brother Branham from America saw 7 visions. The sixth vision saw the Catholic church, as a beautiful woman, ruling and ruining America.

61-0312 — JEHOVAH-JIREH

“And I said, “Then I seen some great, powerful woman rise in the United States.”
… “And I seen a great woman rise up, beautiful to look at, but a cruel, wicked heart.” And that’ll be a church, and she’s on her road now.”

CAB-09 — 9 - THE LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE
“Then in the sixth vision there arose up in America a most beautiful, but cruel woman. She held the people in her complete power.

I believed that this was the rise of the Roman Catholic Church,

though I knew it could possibly be a vision of some woman rising in great power in America due to a popular vote by women.”

61-0806 — THE SEVENTIETH WEEK OF DANIEL

Now, I predicted, and have said, “I saw a great woman stand up, beautiful-looking, dressed in real highly royal-like purple.” And I got little parenthesis down here,

“(She was a great ruler in the United States; perhaps the Catholic church.)”

A woman, some woman; I don’t know it’ll be the Catholic church. I don’t know. I can’t say. Only thing I seen, I seen the woman, that was all.

60-1211 — THE LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE

But there’ll be a powerful woman! Now, remember! This is on tape, too. A powerful woman, great woman, she’ll either be President,

or it’ll be a woman representing the Catholic church (which I think it is)

will take over here someday and she’ll rule this country. This nation is a woman’s nation. 

64-0112 — SHALOM

“… until a woman ruling this nation, which, perhaps, is the church. And then the end come.”

60-1113 — CONDEMNATION BY REPRESENTATION

“Then when these women help elect the wrong person, then I seen a great woman rise up in the United States, well-dressed and beautiful, but cruel in heart. She will either guide or lead this nation to ruination.” I got, in parenthesis, “(Perhaps, Catholic church).

The Bible never says, “The antichrist” (antichrist is a spirit).

By saying “the antichrist” the churches waste their time looking for some political ruler.

The “man of sin” is religious, the present living member of the 2000-year long succession of  Popes.

They carry the title of Pontiff which makes each Pope the High Priest of the Babylonian Mysteries.

The Jews dominate the world’s Stock Exchange.

And the final Pope makes this covenant with the Jews to obtain their Stock Exchange wealth.

DANIEL 11:22  “And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.”

With the massive wealth of the Jewish Stock Exchange in his grasp, he sweeps all before him.

Money talks. Lots of money shouts.

DANIEL 11:23  “And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people.”

Pope Leo 14 is not the last Pope

How will we know this man of sin?

Revelation 13 unites Roman Catholic Church and America

The biggest church with 1.4 million members is the Roman Catholic Church.

The most influential church leader is the Pope. All he needs is military power (and more money) to enforce his beliefs on the whole world.

That is where America is prophesied to step in.

REVELATION 17:2  “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names [plural] of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.”

The woman is the Roman Catholic Church, ruled by the Cardinals in their scarlet robes.

The cup of doctrine she holds out is her claim that you cannot be saved unless you agree with her (unscriptural) Catholic beliefs like Trinity, Christmas, 25 December, Good Friday, the Priest is the head of a local church, allow Gay Rights, etc.

You only see the truth when you are in the wilderness. Unpopular. Rejected by all the churches, including Message-churches that claim to follow William Branham.

The church's nerve centre is Vatican City, right next to the original Seven Hills (the 7 heads) that formed the ancient City of Rome. A church that goes back 2000 years as they falsely claim that Peter was the first Pope. The Roman Catholic Church is the oldest church in the world today.

A “beast” is a spiritual power. A church has spiritual power over people.

“Scarlet coloured” refers to the scarlet robes of the Cardinals who run the Catholic church.

“Full of the names of blasphemy”.

This is very ominous.

"Full" means a lot of being eaten up and being swallowed has happened to the non-Catholic churches. Forcing people into a man-made Confederation of churches that has to bow to the interests of the Roman Catholic Church.

The early church of the apostles was never given a human name as they were just called Christians because Jesus was the Head of the church. Then, error crept in with human leadership and they became Roman Catholics, Lutherans, Anglicans, Methodists, Baptists, Pentecostals, Message-believers, etc.

These are blasphemous names as the New Testament never gave these names to churches.

“Full” of the names of blasphemy means that this evil beast-denominational-spirit has swallowed up all the churches, including Message churches, and forced them into a Confederation of churches.

Unknowingly bonded together by having the same Pastor-dominating church structure.

This Confederation believes unscriptural ideas on various topics but they vigorously condemn any Bible-truths that oppose their man-made opinions.

The election of an American Pope is a sign that these times will intensify and the King James Bible will be even more rejected. The church has fallen away from the Bible faith.

Jesus is the Word of God (the Bible), and He stands rejected outside today's churches.

He knocks on the door of the church from the outside.

REVELATION 3:14  “And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;

REVELATION 3:20  “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”

Every church is destined to be spewed into great Tribulation.

Jesus can only appeal to an individual who is not scared to disagree with the church.

REVELATION 3:16  “So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.”

Churches have a lot of Scriptural error but just enough truth to be a deception.

DANIEL 11:25  “Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him,"

Preaching from part of the Bible and leaving out other portions, is deception.

Muslims are cold, but they fool nobody with their errors because they have no truth.

Thus they are less of a problem to God than the fooled Christians in the churches who fool others.

Unscriptural errors spread like a virus in the churches.

54-1219  — ACTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

“I believe, one of these glorious days, when this united confederation of church goes together, and the new pope is brought out of the United States and put over there according to prophecy, then they’ll form an image like unto the beast. And I tell you, the true Church of God will be drove together. The real, true believers out of Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Nazarene, Pilgrim Holiness, whatever they’ll be, will go together, and cemented by the love of God, that’ll make the Body of the Lord Jesus Christ, all the believers. And agnostics and shallow-minded will be cast to one side; they’ll go right on into the confederation of churches.”

The new Pope in 2025 is Leo 14.
In 1963, brother Branham revealed six of the Seven Seals to enable us to understand the mysteries of Scripture.

That revealed Light was so intense that the Roman Catholic Pope died and the Roman Catholic President of America, John Kennedy, also died.

The Devil reacted by choosing a new Pope (Paul 6) who would travel to all six continents and begin to unify all the churches into a confederation of churches as they forsook Scripture and accepted certain Catholic beliefs.

The Catholics invented Trinity, Christmas, 25 December,  Good Friday, the Priest or Pastor is the head of a local church, the belief that the main leader is Infallible and is the Voice of God, building faith on the quotes of a man rather than the written Word of God, etc.

63-0630 — THE THIRD EXODUS

And even our new pope [Pope Paul VI], his main purpose is to unite the brethren together. And, to the natural eye, it’s the thing to do. But, in the eyes of God, it’s contrary to the Holy Spirit. We can’t mix up with that. And every church will be called into that federation. Get out of that thing, as quick as you can. You’ll take the mark of the beast, not knowing what you’re doing. Get out of it.

REVELATION 13:1  “And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name [singular] of blasphemy.”

The same beast with seven heads but no colour was the pagan Roman Empire ruled from the Capitoline Hill.

“The name [singular] of blasphemy" is saying that “the name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost” is the name of God.

The name of God is Jesus Christ.

By removing Jesus as the name of Almighty God, the Catholic church was able to unite with pagan trinity doctrines and other pagan beliefs.

REVELATION 13:2  “And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.”

This pagan beast gets its power when it speaks “as the mouth of a lion.”

Since 1945, after exploding the two atomic bombs over Japan which ended World War 2, America has the military power (Red horse of Revelation 6) and financial power (Black horse of Revelation 6).

Since 2025, America also has the mouthpiece of religious deception, the Pope (White horse of Revelation 6).

I PETER 5:8  “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:”

Amazingly, the first American Pope is Leo (the lion).

When he gains America’s power, the Pope will be able to destroy physically as well as spiritually with his unscriptural beliefs.

America has often used brute force.

America has a long history of using military might to enforce their expansionist ideas.

They pushed the Native Americans off their tribal lands.

In 1812 they pushed the British into Canada. This military strength persuaded Spain to give up their claim to the American Southwest.

In 1823 the Monroe Doctrine gave them unofficial control over the entire Western hemisphere.

In 1898 they took Cuba and the Philippines from Spain.

They won two World Wars of brutal but brave and imaginative fighting.

Then they used economic rather than military strength to dominate overseas and make the American dollar the recognized world currency.

America has established an unofficial Empire.

Today there are about 800 American military bases in over 70 countries, just in case violence is needed.

The Pope would love to have this incredible American strength being used on behalf of bringing all the churches into subservience to Rome.

MATTHEW 10:28  “And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”

The Communists and Muslims can only destroy the body, not the soul.

The Roman Catholic church can destroy body and soul.

The aim of an American Pope is to get American money and power to enforce the beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church onto the other churches.

Only America will be able to enforce the Confederation of the world churches.

World churches will have to become the church-organizational-image of the beast of Roman Catholicism, by believing unscriptural Catholic ideas and church traditions.

“Leo” is the Latin for “lion”. The Vatican speaks Latin.

Satan now has a very prominent mouthpiece, an American Pope called Leo 14.

The Vatican is the Little Horn

DANIEL 7:8  “I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.”

A horn is a power. The “little horn” is Vatican City in Rome.

Vatican City rules 1.4 billion Catholics. That represents a lot of power.

Vatican Bank underwrites part of the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative, the world’s biggest Industrial Development.

Vatican City is tiny but has huge clout worldwide.

Only 150 residents there have Vatican passports.

The area of Vatican City is about one square kilometre.

The green areas are parks and gardens, which is more than half of the area. Only the grey areas are buildings. It is the world’s smallest country or state. Yet, when a new Pope is elected the whole world pays attention.

When Pope John Paul II was buried in 2005, it was the biggest gathering of international heads of states that ever happened. The world ignores and opposes much of the Life of the King James Bible but they readily united in the death of the Pope.

When Pope Leo 14 speaks, the world listens. The non-Catholic churches believe in Christmas, 25 December, Christmas tree, Good Friday, Trinity, God the Son, one man is the head of a local church, salvation depends on belonging to a certain church, etc.

All these unscriptural ideas were invented by Roman Catholics.

65-0220 — GOD'S CHOSEN PLACE OF WORSHIP

All other church names, creeds, titles, is death to trust them. You’re trusting the Methodist church to take you to Heaven, you’re lost. If you’re trusting the Pentecostals, the Pentecostal church to take you to Heaven, you’re lost. And the Baptist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Catholic, any other church; you’re trusting their name, or their title, or their creed, you are lost.

Because, you can’t even worship until first you come into the place of worship. Amen. That’s the only place God meets the worshipper, is the place He chose to put His Name. All others, you trust in them, you’ll die.

… A man called me not long ago, in Beaumont, Texas. He said, “Mr. Branham, if your name is not on our church book, you cannot go to Heaven.” Would you ever think of that? Don’t you believe such a thing as that.

They think you have to belong to that certain church or you cannot go to Heaven.

That’s wrong.

To believe that, is antichrist. I say this: If you believe such a spirit, you’re lost.

That’s a good sign you are lost, because it’s taking away from what God did. God never put His Name in any church. He put It in His Son, Christ Jesus, when He and His Son became One. That’s the genuine place of worship. No other foundations was laid, no other rock.

America has military and financial power.

The Vatican in Rome has spiritual or church power.

Pope Leo 14 is well placed to begin merging America’s military and financial power to bring the world into a One World Government or One World Church, under the leadership of the Vatican Pope.

Four steps to world domination

Napoleon, Hitler, Russia, and China built huge godless Empires but failed to conquer the world.

The final world ruler must be a religious figure, because people’s deepest convictions are religious. The godless atheism of Communism was overthrown in Poland by Pope John Paul 2.

The Muslim religion is spreading fast as it is a religious move that uses money and military violence.

Corrupting the Word of God is far more effective in spreading error than denying the Word of God.

Conquering the mind by changing people’s religious beliefs is more important than conquering their bodies.

There are four steps to world-dominion being achieved by that spirit of antichrist according to the first four Seals of Revelation Chapter 6.

Religious deception.

Military power.

Big Money power.

Finally, merging all three under a religious Dictator.

These are the four main aspects of the antichrist spirits.

Man dies but the antichrist spirit in that man just jumps onto the next person. The antichrist spirit does not die.

I JOHN 4:3    “and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.”

The Scripture never speaks of a man called “the antichrist”.

“The antichrist” is unscriptural. There are many antichrists.

I JOHN 2:18  “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”

Antichrist is a spirit that has been around for at least 2000 years.

Let us follow how church error evolved during the 2000 years of church history.

Consider the first four Seals of Revelation 6.

The First Seal opens with a mystery Thunder.

One month before he died, brother Branham was still looking for that Thunder (and the shout) in the future.

Thus the First Seal has not yet opened.

1965-11- 27 — I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE

Dear God, in this solemn moment, it’s going to be a time like this when there really will be a clap of THUNDER someday, and the Son of God shall descend from the heavens with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and the trump of God, the dead in Christ shall rise.

The Seventh Seal has not opened.

64-0719 — The Feast Of The Trumpets

The Seventh Seal hasn’t opened yet, you know. That’s His Coming.

The Seals have been revealed but have not opened.

The Seals are only opened in Revelation Chapter 6 when the Bride is in Heaven around the throne.

But the Seals must first be revealed down on earth, before they can be opened in Heaven.

AMOS 3:7  “Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.”

If brother Branham opened the Seals, then who revealed them in the past? Nobody.

So, his task was to reveal them.

REVELATION 6:1  “And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.”

:2  “And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.”

What is that mystery Thunder that opened the Seals? We do not know. Thus the 7 Seals have never opened.

Brother Branham revealed 6 of the Seven Seals but they will only open in Heaven after the Bride has been caught up.

Revealing the Seals gives us an outline of the events.

Artists first draw the outline of a picture to get everything in their right places.

Then they fill in the details within the limits of the outlines.

Opening the Seals will fill in all the intricate details and the personal motivations.

Please remember. One month before he died, brother Branham was still waiting for that unknown mystery Thunder that will happen in the future. The shout is also in the future.

White is clean representing religion. A bow without an arrow is deception.

Pope Nicholas I wore a crown around AD 980. By 1314 this had become a triple crown, the tiara, first worn by Pope Clement V.

The Popes were building an Empire on guilt, fear, and blood.

Not for your salvation but to keep you under their control.

Roman Catholic religious deception was described as conquering the churches.

The Catholic church is the only church that goes right back to the beginning as they claim that Peter was the first Pope.

The mystery “he” in the above Scripture, Revelation 6:2, is “that spirit of antichrist” that spreads religious deception.

Pope Leo 14, by becoming the new Pope, has taken on that antichrist spirit and will play a big role in bringing the non-Catholic churches into submission to the Pope.

To achieve that aim, the final Pope, who will be the man of sin, must acquire the powerful American economy.

The new American Pope Leo 14 will get this process started.

The powerful American military is also in the new Pope’s future plans to enforce his will on the world.

Rome is Mystery Babylon and Babylon spreads religion by force.

Religious deception requires massive military power and Big Money to produce its world-wide dance of death.

REVELATION 6:3  “And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.”

:4  “And there went out another horse that was red:

and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.”

Another horse but not another rider. Same antichrist spirit, “him”, taking on a new power, military power.

Happy to kill dissenters.

The new Pope needs to use American military power to effectively enforce the authority of the Catholic Church over the other churches.

The antichrist rider needs church organization and military power. So, he rides two horses.

When the Catholic church takes over America, it will put the Pope in control of the world’s largest economy.

REVELATION 6:5  “And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.”

REVELATION 6:6  “And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.”

A penny was the pay for a day’s labour. They paid their wages to the church to get their spiritual food.

MATTHEW 20:2  “And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.”

The churches selling the Word of God is Big Business.

Weighing out their modified church doctrines that they sell to the people.

It is daylight robbery as they claim to be church leaders but stop their people from learning the Truth.

This is fraud on a massive scale.

The church squeezing the world for their money.

The Prosperity Gospel that makes the Pastors rich.

But the oil of the Holy Spirit can still reveal the stimulation of the wine of revelation that enables individuals to understand the mysteries of the King James Bible.

The antichrist rider sits on three horses.

REVELATION 6:7  “And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.”

The voice of the fourth beast is the voice of the seventh angel.

Claiming that William Branham is the Voice of God is a colossal lie that has fooled his followers into joining the ranks of the foolish virgins. There is no “Voice of God” in the New Testament.

REVELATION 6:8  “And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.”

So, what is happening in our time, these last 60-odd years?

The uniting of the white, red, and black horses. We are living in the uniting time.

But there is only one rider.

A trinity of horses merging into one pale corpse-coloured horse.

The Rapture is the Holy Ghost catching the Bride up to Heaven to unite with Jesus.

Life leaves the earth and Death enters to kill the foolish virgins. Two billion will die horribly.

Today, America has the military power (represented by the Red horse of Revelation 6) and financial power (represented by the Black horse of Revelation 6).

Since 2025, America also has the mouthpiece of religious deception, the Pope (represented by the White horse of Revelation 6).

The Pope always speaks to a big audience. And the TV channels broadcast worldwide.

Pope Leo 14 made his opening address in St Peter's Square, May 2025.

The new Pope, Leo 14, will scheme to try to use America’s wordwide financial empire to  produce a Confederation of churches that agree with many of his unscriptural Catholic denominational beliefs.

That will be the pale horse as the three colours COMBINE.

13 is the number of America

The Roman Catholic church will be built up by the American power and money that forces non-Catholic churches to obey Rome.

REVELATION 13:3  “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.”

The Capital of the pagan Roman Empire was the Temple of Jupiter on the Capitoline Hill.

It was a small building but it had huge authority over the vast Roman Empire.

"Wounded to death". This political-religious power was destroyed by the Barbarians in AD 476 when the Roman Empire ended.

"His deadly wound was healed".

But then, miraculously the Roman Catholic Church resurrected that pagan Roman spirit which rose up to power with its Headquarters in the Lateran Palace on the Caelian Hill. That is still the official headquarters of the Catholic church today.

The Catholic church is thus baptized paganism.

Now, the Pope rules a spiritual worldwide Empire by telling the people what to believe and thus conquering their minds, not their bodies.

America, China, Russia, Iran, Turkey, etc, are powerful nations. They stopped the Pope from ruling the world.

But, somehow, using its money power and military power, America will help to establish the power of the Pope on a worldwide scale.

A brutal change is coming in the future.

REVELATION 13:11  “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.”

The “beast from the sea” was the financial-political-religious power that arose amongst the crowded people of Europe. First as the brutal tax-grasping Roman Empire, then as the cruel money-grabbing Roman church.

The “beast from the earth” was America as the Native Americans were few, compared to Europe, and often widely separated. The beast John saw was a bison or buffalo. Big and powerful but eats grass, not flesh. Not a predator.

“Two horns of a lamb” meant that political power and church power were kept separate to limit the power that a ruler had over the people. In 1865, Abraham Lincoln set a godly example and ended slavery. American pulpits were aflame with righteousness.

  lamb

  bison

But, as the years went by, the American church got hugely involved in politics and power. America changed and became a predator by attacking others.

Satan (represented as a dragon) also entered the church as is evidenced by their allowing of Gay rights and same-sex marriage.

In addition, non-Catholic churches believe many Catholic ideas, like putting one man as the head of a church and changing the words of the King James Bible in their various Bible versions.

Thirteen is America’s number as 13 States on the East Coast formed the United States in 1776.

The American Seal has 13 stars, 13 stripes in the flag, 13 arrows, 13 olive leaves, and 13 olive berries.

The motto “E pluribus unum” (From many, one) has 13 letters.

REVELATION 13:12   “And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.”

The American beast with its military and financial power will cause the world to worship the Catholic religious system with all its unscriptural doctrines and traditions.

This transformation will start to gain pace now that America has a Pope in the Vatican who will strive to increase the influence of the Roman Catholic church in America.

In 2025 the Vatican was short of cash for Vatican salaries and rapidly rigged the Cardinal’s election of an American Pope to hopefully open the door to American contributions.

REVELATION 13:13  “And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,”

“Wonders" that impress.

Scientific wonders performed by the American beast.

In 1945, two atom bombs fell from 10,000 metres and exploded 600 metres above ground so that a flaming fireball surged downwards and vaporized what lay below at ground zero.

These two bombs instantly destroyed two Japanese cities and ended World War 2. The world looked on in awe.

This was the biggest shock to hit the earth in the last century. America became the new unquestioned superpower.

After the Second World War America built up a world economy based on the American dollar, an unofficial world Empire, but nevertheless the largest Empire in all of history. A real economic wonder.

Japan and Germany were destroyed in World War 2 but America occupied them and built them up into the second and third strongest economies of the world. This was an economic wonder of note.

In 1969 America landed two men on the moon. This was an exceptional scientific wonder as no other nation has managed to do it for over 50 years.

Returning to the earth at high speed, the men in the space capsule burned through the atmosphere for 3.5 minutes in a blazing flame of fire as the atmosphere got denser and slowed them down. Again, fire coming down from heaven that no other nation could equal. 

Bombs drop from the air and create fire on earth. America has the most powerful Airforce.

The American Navy is the second most powerful airforce.

Miracles that deceive.

REVELATION 13:14  “And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.”

The miracle that is happening today is the uniting of all the different churches.

Protestants, Jews, and non-Catholics must be united into a Confederation of churches, despite their differences.

60-1208 — THE THYATIREAN CHURCH AGE
“Either that or they made an image…Revelation 13:14, they made an image unto the beast. You, I guess, you all reading that. If you haven’t, why, we’ll turn right back and read it.

Revelation 13:14:

And he deceived them that dwell upon the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; (That’s this confederation of church.)…and to do in the sight of the beast; saying unto them that dwell upon the earth, that they should make an image unto the beast, which had the deadly wound (paganism)…and was by the sword, and did live…(through papacy, pagan Rome to papal Rome. See?)

“Make an image to her.” What would it be? Just what they’re doing right now, just exactly, moving up in this confederation of churches, “All the churches belong to this organization, all go into one group.”

The miracles that America performs are to get the non-Catholic churches to unite in a Confederation of churches that obeys basic Catholic doctrines.

This is the image unto the Catholic beast as they move closer and closer to the Catholic church beliefs.

Catholic doctrines that non-Catholic churches believe

Unscriptural is cheating your way to an empty victory.

Consequently, the churches have become unscriptural distractions that deceive us.

The Catholic church believes in a Trinity.

But they cannot show us one picture in Heaven of three Persons sitting on a throne in Heaven.

Trinity is copied from the Babylonians, the Egyptians, and the Hindus.

The Egyptian trinity of Isis, Osiris, and Horus. They had 3 names as you cannot find one name for three people.

That is why the Trinity God of the churches has no name, just three titles.

The churches say “in the name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost” is a name. Really?

Trinitarians draw up their home-made versions of the Trinity Godhead. This is an unscriptural delusion which can only be believed by the thoroughly brainwashed.

The churches deny that Jesus Christ is the name of the Lord God Almighty.

They elevate one man to be the head of each local church.

They claim that their main leader is Infallible as the Voice of God. Thus they stick to this man's quotes.

They claim, unscripturally, that 25 December is the birthday of Jesus.

They believe Jesus died on the unscriptural “Good Friday” which means He only spent two nights, instead of three nights, in the tomb as He arose on Sunday morning.

MATTHEW 12:40  “For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.”

The Roman Catholic church is really dumbing down the Protestants.

Fooling them to become unscriptural and thus making saved Christians part of the foolish virgins of Matthew Chapter 25.

Virgins are clean women, representing saved Christians.

According to the Parable, the foolish virgins, though saved, will wake up too late to be ready for the Lord's Coming.

MATTHEW 25:5  “While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.”

All the saved Christians in todays 2000 different churches and denominations, as well as the more than 100 different Message churches that claim to follow William Branham, are fast asleep. Unaware of what is going on.

Message churches thought the world would end in 1977. They got it wrong;

They thought that Hillary Clinton would win the 2016 Presidential election. They got it wrong.

They claimed that Kamala Harris would win the Presidential election in 2024. Wrong again.

They have no clue what is happening as they rely on their totally uninspired interpretations of brother Branham's quotes.

Now they claim that Pope Leo 14 is the last Pope. Let us wait and see.

The former rain is a teaching rain

The former rain that was started by William Branham is called "moreh" in Hebrew. That means a teaching rain.

It has to be done by Bible teachers. Men who can prove Brother Branham's revelations from Scripture.

But Message Pastors took over by ignoring Scripture and trying to interpret quotes. Hence their long list of wrong predictions because all they could do was produce an unscriptural Pastoral rain.

Their unscriptural philosophy is, "Follow your Pastor, he will see you through."

Despite the Pastors disagreeing with each other.

Despite the many Bible verses that Pastors and Evangelists cannot explain.

Then foolishly, Pastors and Evangelists are quick to condemn Bible teachers who can explain the written Word.

A wakeup call is coming.

MATTHEW 25:6  “And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.”

A "cry" indicates extreme distress.

Soon, something is going to go very wrong economically.

Losing money is the most stressful human experience today. It certainly wakes us up.

"Go ye out to meet Him".

The horrific realization that we are safer outside a church than inside it.

Churchgoers, including Message churchgoers, will realize that they have to come out of their favourite churches and their fraudulent Pastor's feel-good, self-help, motivational speeches that fooled them for over 60 years.

Pastors defraud their churches by collecting their money and chasing away and condemning the Bible teachers who were far more capable of understanding Scripture.

DANIEL 12:10  "... the wise shall understand."

People cannot be part of the wise virgins unless they understand the difficult Scriptures.

MATTHEW 25:7  “Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.”

An economic collapse will wake-up our materialistic wealth-seeking churchgoers.

"Trimmed their lamps" means the painful cutting off of the burnt-out carbon of their church illusions and personal delusions.

Finally they wanted enough pure light so that they could read and understand the Bible mysteries for themselves.

Not just parroting a quote that they never properly understood.

The Bible never mentions parrots.

Away from the dominating and charismatic Pastors who coveted the reputation of being clever, as if they are allowed to interpret quotes rather than explain Scriptures.

But there will not be enough time to learn the truth for the foolish virgins in the churches.

The secret seven Thunders will utter to further complicate their problems.

Especially, since Message Pastors have fooled them into thinking that the seven Thunders have already uttered.

Message Pastors thereby make a statement that brother Branham never made.

This is shocking in its deception!

William Branham never said that the seven Thunders have uttered

or that the seven Thunders are uttering.

This photograph of a supernaturally high cloud was taken by Dr James McDonald from the Tucson Observatory on 28 February 1963, that was just North of the City of Flagstaff in Arizona.

There was no face in the photograph of this 42 kilometre-high cloud made from angel's wings.

LUKE 12:54  “And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.”

A supernatural cloud from the West is not the coming of Jesus.

It is not the coming of the mighty Angel of Revelation 10.

It is the coming down of the revelation of the mysteries of God to produce a shower of the former (or teaching) rain.

63-0317  THE BREACH BETWEEN THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES AND THE SEVEN SEALS

"... but at the end when the seventh angel begins to sound his mystery, he winds up all of the loose ends that these fellows progged at,

and the mysteries comes down from God, as the Word of God, and reveals the entire revelation of God,

then the Godhead and everything else is settled. All the mysteries, serpent’s seed, and whatever more, is to be revealed."
Christ is the Word of God.

In 1963 Christ came down as the revealed Word of God so that the wise virgins could understand the Bible.

Bible teachers thus have to prove all the quotes from the Scripture.

If we cannot understand the mysteries of Scripture then we are not wise.

Christ did not come down as a Person.

But Pastors sadly try to prove that the cloud was the second Coming or the coming of the Angel of Revelation 10.

Their misconception is based on a photostat that somehow allowed light to leak in.

This faulty photostat or facsimile taken of the cloud photograph showed two dark spots as eyes.

Notice, also, the wrong location or place. The cloud was never over Sunset Peak.

Brother Branham was hunting Javelina pigs from 6 March to 8 March at Sunset Peak.

But the hunting season only opened on 1 March, 1963. One day after the photograph was taken.

Message followers rely on this faulty photostat or facsimile of a photograph that leaked in light and produced a face in the supernaturally high cloud of 1963. This photostat had to be rotated through ninety degrees to look like a face.

Message followers are unaware, because they never read Dr James McDonald's report, that there was a high altitude smoke cloud 20 miles behind the supernatural cloud.

They wrongly place this 1963 supernatural cloud as being at Sunset Peak because brother Branham got his facts wrong.

They do not realize that there were two clouds, a supernatural cloud and a smoke cloud from a high altitude exploded rocket.

Peter prophesied of a high altitude smoke cloud.

ACTS 2:19  “And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:”

Water vapour makes a rain cloud. Smoke vapour makes a smoke cloud.

Dr James McDonald, the astronomer, was puzzled by the appearance of two clouds.

Now Message-believers are in awe of this face being the Judge in the sky.

The New Testament does not speak of a Judge in the sky. That is just a man-made doctrine.

MATTHEW 24:30  “And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: "

Not the Lord Jesus. Not the Judge. The sign of the son of man revealing Himself in Scripture when six of the Seven Seals were revealed.

The Seals were revealed, not opened.

They can only be opened after they have been revealed.

AMOS 3:7  “Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.”

Message churches are defrauded by Pastors who claim William Branham is infallible (as if he is another Pope) because they simply cannot admit that he got some of his facts wrong concerning these two clouds.

The Message Pastors' relentless narrative concerning the face in the 1963 cloud isn't a genuine reflection of reality but rather a carefully constructed smokescreen designed to obscure the fact that the Seals cannot open until they have been revealed.

MATTHEW 25:10  “And while they [the foolish virgins] went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they [the wise virgins] that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.”

MATTHEW 25:11  “Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.”

But it had taken them too long to unlearn their errors and then to try to learn the truth.

There are only 40 days between the resurrection and the Rapture that catches the Bride up to Heaven.

All the while trying to also cope with the advanced mysteries of the seven Thunders.

MATTHEW 25:12  “But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.”

Their fatal mistake was that they studied quotes rather than Scripture.

You have to prove the quotes from Scripture.

Jesus is the Word. He only knows those who understand the Bible mysteries.

We must build the Temple that God wants, not the temple that suits us.

God’s Will, not my selfish will.

If you do not understand the verses in the Bible, you will not be at the Wedding Supper of the Bride, with the wise virgins.

Thus, the saved foolish virgins will have to perish in the unspeakable horrors of the 3.5 years of great tribulation before they can be with the Lord Jesus.

63-1110  HE  THAT   IS  IN  YOU

Believe all the Message. Believe That. If it isn't written in the Bible, then don't you believe it.

64-0830   QUESTIONS  AND  ANSWERS.3

To make me the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ, would be an antichrist

How many Christians will be numbered amongst the foolish virgins (five is the number of GRACE) who, misled by their Pastors, have to be straightened out from their errors in great Tribulation. (That is God's grace towards them. They will be straightened out by shock and horror but by grace they are saved from hell).

REVELATION 7:9  “After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number,

of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;”

John had easily counted 144000 Israelites.

But he could not even try to count the number of saved Christians who will get straightened out in great tribulation as they finally, too late, realize that their Pastors fooled them.

The problem that modern-day Pastors face is that power corrupts and thus power attracts the corrupt.

REVELATION 7:13  “And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?”

REVELATION 7:14  “And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”

They got saved at Calvary 2000 years ago.

They are only able to learn about their church errors in the awful massacres and extreme violence of great tribulation.

Gentiles cannot get saved in great tribulation because Jesus has to get off the Mercy Seat to come and get His Bride.

JOHN 9:4  “I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.”

Daylight represents the light of the Gospel.

Night represents the awful great tribulation.

Gentiles will die but they cannot get saved as there is no blood on the Mercy Seat. Thus evangelists cannot do any effective work during the 3.5 years of great tribulation.

There will be no rain and no salvation as it is the time of God's warth on those who rejected His revealed truth.

Foolish virgins who were saved before great tribulation will hang onto their salvation if they defy the man of sin and die for their faith.

DANIEL 11:21  “And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.”

This verse introduces that future vicious killer, the final Pope, who takes the world to Armageddon.

He is very deceptive as he will first appear as a man of peace.

I THESSALONIANS 5:3  “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

There will be no lasting peace during the end times. Peace will be a deception. A temporary lull to make people drop their guard and relax. A fatal mistake.

JEREMIAH 10:21  “For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.”

The pastors rule their churches by force. They say, “Believe what I say or leave the church”.

The people have to believe what the pastors say.

A pastor’s motto.  “Everyone is entitled to my opinion”.

Thus, Christians can no longer think Scripturally for themselves. They criticize the Bible but are scared to criticize their church or pastor. Forgetting that there are over 2000 different kinds of churches that believe all sorts of different things.

Because the pastors usurped one-man leadership of each church (which is unscriptural), they brutally suppressed any different ideas that disagreed with the pastors. Consequently, the brainwashed churches will be finally and brutally destroyed by the brutal man of sin.
