St. Paul said:
In one of the greatest of the great prophecies of the Bible, St. Paul predicted that 2 things must happen FIRST before the end of the world: A falling away or apostasy from the Apostolic Faith and the Man of Sin to be revealed. Then he referred obscurely to something mysterious that was hindering or restraining evil and holding back the revelation of the Man of Sin. According to the Apostle Paul, the believers KNEW perfectly well what was withholding or restraining the manifestation of the Man of Sin. It was no mystery to them. Jesus had already told them that they were the SALT of the earth and the LIGHT of the world:
Believers in Christ were restraining evil Beginning in the year 303, the Roman Empire launched a persecution against Christianity which lasted 10 years. It is called the last great pagan persecution of the Congregation. Millions of Christians were killed and the main target of the pagans was the New Testament . . . and the histories of Christ....All of the great books portraying the Mount of Olives as the site of the Resurrection were systematically destroyed. Even the books written by pagan authors were destroyed because they would reveal a lot about the doctrines and practices of Apostolic Christianity. This was the removal by death of the restraint or hindering power and the stage was set for the emergence of the Papal Roman Empire with Constantine as the first Pope!! The only non-Biblical author whose work survived was Eusebius of Caesarea, and he preserved MOST of his works by flattering or praising Emperor Constantine!! The Rapture or Millions Missing!! The Rapture or "millions missing" fable was invented by 2 Jesuits and is held by most "Protestants" today....It ranks right up there with the fantasy of the moving earth and evolution....No matter how bizarre the believe system is, if it will undermine the Reformation, the Jesuits will embrace it with all the enthusiasm of a fanatic.
Francisco Ribera was a Spanish doctor of theology who wrote a 500 page Latin commentary on Revelation (Apocalypse) entitled: In Sacrum Beati Ioannis Apostoli, & Evangelistiae Apocalypsin Commentarij, and published it about the year 1590....This commentary was never translated into any other language and was for the eyes of the hierarchy only!! Robert Bellarmine was an Italian doctor of theology and is best known for his opposition to fellow Jesuit Galileo and his HELLiocentric theory. He also wrote a book in Latin entitled: Disputationes de controversiis christianae fidei, or Polemic Lectures Concerning the Disputed Points of the Christian Belief Against the Heretics of This Time. This book follows the basic outline of Francisco de Ribera's book with the reign of Antichrist limited to a few years way off in the future before the end of time. In the Futurism system of Ribera and Bellarmine, Antichrist is an evil superman who emerges just 7 years before the end of time and causes all kinds of havoc. In the English speaking world, Edward Irving and John Nelson Darby further elaborated on this system by inventing a secret rapture 7 years before the end. They correctly taught that the Christians are restraining evil—in this case Protestant Christians— who will be removed from the earth before the Antichrist will be revealed. In popular literature it is called the Rapture or catching away!! Those who are LEFT BEHIND will get another chance to be saved ... if they choose death rather that accept the mark of the beast!! If you think this is some kind of hoax or fantasy think again....This teaching is held by millions of "Protestant" Christians and is the foundation of a multi-million dollar publishing and movie empire. Hal Lindsay and C.C. Carlson The first book to really bring Futurism to the masses was a book entitled The Late Great Planet Earth by Hal Lindsey and C.C. Carlson which appeared in 197O. That book has sold over 35 million copies and was translated into 54 languages: Hal Lindsey is known as the father of modern "Bible" prophecy. His famous Late Great Planet Earth sold over 35 million copies and spawned the billion dollar end-times industry, whose books and videos repeat his dispensational theme, and are patterned after his novel writing style. Lindsey actually is a Jesuit in disguise as 2 of his daughters attended Jesuit Gonzaga University.
The mysterious C. C. Carlson—ghostwriter for Lindsey's book's—finally turns out to be a woman....She should be called the MOTHER of modern "Bible" prophecy. In Protestant Christianity, it is very unusual for a woman to write a prophecy book. Prior to 1971, you could count them on one hand. Elliot and Spurgeon surveyed history and listed the best expositors in Horae and Commentating on Commentators. Neither man mentioned a woman. Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins When it became apparent that Futurism was the road that led to fame and riches, many jumped on this "Bible" prophecy bandwagon....2 of the most famous false profits are "Reverend" Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins who originated the Left Behind publishing empire.
These men are laughing all the way to the bank due to the phenomenal success of their Left Behind series. Most libraries in the U.S. have copies of their books . . . but fortunately they are listed under "Christian" FICTION. In their books, the Rapture has already taken place and the hero and heroine battle the evil Antichrist named Nicolae Carpathia from the country of Romania!! The phenomenally successful Left Behind serious features over 8 full length books and 2 Hollywood movies. If this was nothing more than trivial entertainment it might be OK, but there is something far, far more sinister behind the Left Behind series. Tim LaHaye and the Council for National Policy In 1981, Tim LaHaye was the founder of a highly secretive conservative think tank called the Council for National Policy dedicated to turning the nation to the right. One of the founding members was named Edgar Prince, father of Erik Prince, the secretive founder of the Blackwater mercenaries:
Erik Prince is the founder of Blackwater mercenaries Erik Prince is the son of a billionaire Michigan industrialist named Edgar Prince. His father was a generous contributor to right-wing evangelical "Protestant" causes and Erik became a major contributor to Catholic organizations....He founded Blackwater in 1998.
ARMY. NAVY. AIR FORCE. MARINES. BLACKWATER!! The 5th branch of the CONfederate military is called BLACKWATER after the area in Camden County, North Carolina, where the mercenaries train. Of course they don't call themselves mercenaries but private contractors. Their founder, Erik Prince, is described by the media as a RIGHT WING EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN!! A decade ago, the company barely existed; and yet, its "diplomatic security" contracts since mid-2004, with the State Department alone, total more than $750 million. Today, Blackwater has become nothing short of the Bush administration's well-paid Praetorian Guard. It protects the U.S. ambassador and other senior officials in Iraq as well as visiting congressional delegations; it trains Afghan security forces and was deployed in the oil-rich Caspian Sea region, setting up a "command and control" center just miles from the Iranian border. The company was also hired to protect FEMA operations and facilities in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, where it raked in $240,000 a day from the American taxpayer, billing $950 a day per Blackwater contractor.
The war in Iraq actually started in earnest when 4 Blackwater mercenaries were ambushed in Fallujah and hung up on a bridge.
These mercenaries make more money in ONE DAY than a regular CONfederate soldier makes in an entire week....After the ambush, the regular army was called in to avenge their deaths and the infamous Battle of Fallujah commenced. Blackwater is modeled after the Gestapo!! Blackwater is modeled after the German Gestapo which in turns was modeled after Henry Ford's "Service Department." Hitler greatly admired his financier and copied everything that Henry Ford did. This is where he got the idea for his own private army called the Gestapo with Himmler taking the place of Harry Bennett. Hitler's private army bullied everybody into submission....Their weapon of choice was the Tommy gun which was supplied in large quantities by Henry Ford. Vital
