Papcy ruled Europe during The Rule of the Anti-Christ power Papcy ruled Europe during the Middle Ages A historical fact

Revelation also reveals Anti-Christ Power Rev. 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 of blasphemy. 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. 1. Power 2. Seat 3. Authority

Tracing the Antichrist Historically The four beast of Daniel 7 are made into a conglomerate beast in Revelation 13. The ten horns on the beast of Daniel 7 reappear on the beast of Revelation13. This beast receives its power from the Dragon or Satan. This beast also represents the Roman Empire and its seat of power is at the city of Rome. The power, the seat, and the authority of old Rome were turned over to this antichrist power. The antichrist power is still there in the same seat today. This is a biblical prophecy being fulfilled.

Deadly wound to The Anti-Christ Power And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; {1798) The Papacy lost it political power and the pope was taken a prisoner to France and died there in exile. The wound even got worse in 1870 when the Papacy lost its Papal states . The pope became a prisoner in the Vatican until February 11, 1929.) and his deadly wound was healed: (Rev. 13:3) and all the world wondered after the beast. 13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who [is] like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months.

THE HEALING OF THE DEADLY WOUND February 11. 1929 “The Lateran Treaty” (no more prisoner of the Vatican 1870 – 1929 or after 59 years the pope is free.) The Vatican becomes an independent country. In 1870 this is what was published in the newspaper when the Papacy lost its power. ***************************** “The dream of a unified Italy had come to pass. Uncensored newspapers could now appear. One of the first, on September 23, 1870 captured the delirious moods: “After fifteen centuries of darkness or mourning, of misery and pain, Rome, once the queen of all the world, has again become the metropolis of a great State.

“ PRISIONER OF THE VATICAN” PAGE 58 Today in Rome freedom of thought is no longer a crime, and free speech can be heard within its walls without fear of the Inquisition, of burnings at the stake, of the gallows. The light of civil liberty that, arising in France in 1789, has brightened all Europe now shines as well on the eternal city. For Rome it is only today that the Middle Ages are over.” (Sept. 20, 1870) Tirbuno, in Bartoccini 1895, p.418 Prisoner of the Vatican, Kertzer p. 58 For them the taking of Rome meant the end of centuries of clerical tyranny, the close of an era of medieval superstition, and the beginning of a bright new future of science and reason. P. 117

Italy is betrayed by Mussolini The Lateran Treaty 1929, very subtly gave Italy back to the Papacy. September 20, 1870 was Italy’s great national holiday. Through the influence of the Papacy, the fascist state under Mussolini abolished September 20, 1870 as their national holiday. Italy became a country rather unlike others, a country unable to celebrate its own birth, a country whose founding fathers had become an embarrassment. To celebrate September 20 as their day of independence would be a continual reminder of the Tierney of the Papacy that they were delivered from.

Benito Mussolini - Italy vs. The Vatican The Vatican becomes an independent country. Catholicism becomes Italy’s sole official religion Catholic instructions obligatory in public schools Religious imagery retuned to schoolrooms and public offices Protestant Bible and teachings outlawed in the country Ninety Million Dollars given to Vatican for the land confiscated in 1870 (17,000 square miles in the heart of Italy that belonged to the Papacy. (The Papal states)

Identifying the Anti-Christ Power 1. Deadly wound - 1798 2. Wound healed - 1929 3. Speaks blasphemies 4. Continues 42 months

Rev. 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.” Head (Empire) receives a deadly wound (1798) Deadly wound is healed \ emerges as a beast, demoted from an Empire to a Nation, 1929) This beast has a number, 666 It is the number of a man – The leader The leader’s title must have a numerical value of 666

The Number of the Beast Rev.13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is] Six hundred threescore [and] six. The number of the beast The number of a man His number is 666

THE LANGUAGE OF THE NUMBER THE ALPHABETICAL VALUE TO MAKE THE BIBLICAL NUMBER 666 WOULD HAVE TO BE FROM THE LANGUAGE OF THE BEAST\ NATION POWER. The official language of the Beast \ Papal power is Latin. Their official Bible is in Latin The numerical value would have to be from the title of the leader of the beast power – a man - in Latin The Latin title of the Pope is: “Vicarius Filii Dei”

“THE LATIN TITLE” V I C A R I U S F I L I I D E I The actual Official Title of the Pope in Latin is: Vicarius Filii Dei = Substitute for Son of God ( Takes the place of God on earth) The numerical value of the man’s Title in Latin V I C A R I U S F I L I I D E I 5 1 100 0 0 1 5 0 0 1 50 1 1 500 0 1 = 666 The number 666 matches the Official Title of the Pope

Pope Leo Xlll - 1894 "We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty." T These are great words by the Beast Power that has the Mark These words even bypass Jesus and his authority and refere directly to the Father

The Pope – Another God on earth!! In the Roman Empire, the senate elected the Emperor and then they worshiped him as another god. In the Roman Church the Cardinals elect the pope and then they worship the pope that they have elected as another God on earth.

Catholic Dogma Biblical? The place of God Almighty? The pope is actually worshipped as a god He is called the “Holy Father” The Bible corrects this erroneous teaching Jeremiah 3:19 “Thou shalt call me, My Father.” Isa. 9:6 The Everlasting Father Matt. 23:9 Call no man father on earth.
