The Image of the Beast

!! JULY 08, 2025 !! MAJOR PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT CLICK HERE to find out if the Church or Ministry you support is a 501c3 Government agency This page in RUSSIAN Now do you see why ALL SDA pastors refuse to answer "certain questions?" As prophesied, if you stay in the SDA church you will be SHAKEN out of the true church. Probation HAS closed on the SDA church corporate WHY DID THE PASTORS SIGN THE 501C3? Concerning protesting the 501c3 with what is written in 508c1a. Read Section Section (c) Exceptions, (1) Mandatory exceptions and part (A).This explains clear as day that any church that is a not a 501c3 is already tax exempt. See 26 U.S. Code § 508.

CLICK HERE to find out if the Church or Ministry you Donate to is a 501c3 Government agency For the SDA: "The world must not be introduced into the church, and married to the church, forming a bond of unity. Through this means the church will become indeed corrupt, and as stated in Revelation, "a cage of every unclean and hateful bird." {TM 265.1} The 501c3 creates a "bond of unity" with the US Government which is also the second beast of Revelation. This is indeed a worldly bond! Since this is a done deal with all the churches including the SDA church, that means they are "as stated in Revelation, "a cage of every unclean and hateful bird." And what verse in Revelation does that refer to? Revelation 18:1-2 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. (2) And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For those SDA pastors that keep claiming the SDA church can never be a sister to fallen Babylon, they are now exposed as wolves in sheep's clothing. 1 Peter 5:2-3 "Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; (3) Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock." The 501c3 exposes all "preachers" today. They do it for "filthy lucre" and not for the flock. And since the SDA church and the Catholic church rule by hierarchy, both the Pope and the SDA president "stand above" their flocks to do wrong here. We are to be an example unto the flock, not a "lord" over it. Now do you see why the SDA leaders removed statements made by Ellen White in her books regarding the Loud Cry AND their future plans to get a 501c3?

CLICK HERE to find out if the Church or Ministry you Donate to is a 501c3 Government agency President Bush Signed Executive order #13397 on March 7, 2006 that gave temporary power to the 501c3. (Trump made it permanent) Were you aware that Constantine made The first Sunday Law March 7 321AD Revelation 13:15, "And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed." On March 7th 2006 the Bush administration put into law a brand new executive order (# 13397) that REMOVES the separation of church and state at the stroke of a pen and forces all churches (with 501C3 status) to become government agencies. Strangely enough, this came almost exactly one year after Pope John Paul II said the following… Church and State Can Cooperate, Says Pope VATICAN CITY, MARCH 17, 2005 (Zenit.org).- John Paul II believes that the Church and state can and must collaborate in their service to the person and the common good with relations of "autonomy and difference." Before getting into the current facts, let';s look at the past movements of the beast in Rome to see if there are any parallels. 1693 years ago, in the infancy of Rome';s prophecied power we find movements the modern day Vatican can';t help but to echo today. When you read the following historic facts, try to recall what the American Government has been doing, especially since John F. Kennedy';s instituted "blue laws; which in turn forced all government agencies to be closed on Sundays. 313AD - The so-called edict of Milan, issued jointly with his colleague Licinius, granting religious liberty to all, of whatever religious belief, and particularly mentioning the Christians. Hereafter Constantine surrounded himself with bishops, gave preference to the Christians, and issued legislation in their favor, without renouncing or persecuting paganism 321AD – His famous Sunday law, which served to unite his Christian and pagan subjects in "the venerable day of the Sun. 323AD or 324AD – His attainment of sole rule of the whole empire by the defeat of his last rival, the pagan Licinius, who had resumed persecution of Christians in the East; his open espousal and proclamation of Christianity about this time, and the subsequent disappearance of the sun-god and other pagan symbols from his coinage. 325 AD – His convening of the council of Nicea, which he dominated, on order to secure unity in the church; subsequently, his enforcement of that unity against heretical Christians in favor of the Catholic church. For all these facts and much more, look into the book written by Philip Schaff called "History of the Christian church Vol. 3, pp 30-31. Or you can find this data in "Brief bible readings for the home pp, 367 - 368 As I have said numerous times before. Just because the pope wants the USA to form an image to itself doesn';t mean that will happen. In order for it to come to fruition you MUST have a Protestant leader stand up demand the same thing using of course a grassroots campaign. Back in October of 2002 Pat Robertson';s "Christian Coalition held a rally in D.C. straightforwardly snubbing both the Scripture as well as the American Constitution regarding separation of church and state. Prophecy BLUNTLY states the "Lamb horned beast, which is actually the United States Government, will make an "image to the beast (Revelation.13:11) before Christ arrives so as to better enforce the beast';s mark upon mankind. Let';s quickly look at the facts, shall we? · FACT: The Vatican state has been both a church and a government since circa 313AD · FACT: As of March 7, 2006 the USA is now "officially a church & state form of government Prophecy has already blessed us with rock hard evidence as to the TRUE nature of the Vatican and its agenda. All prophecies that speak of the beast or antichrist have been proven fulfilled by the popes of Rome. For both Scriptural as well as historically documented proof on that statement, please visit my "Characteristics of Antichrist page in the "warnings" section of the website. Now that we know who this beast is. How can any government form an image of it? First off, it would have to obviously become a church & state entity. Still, the main image of this beast is not only about melding church & state. The true agenda behind all this is CONTROL to put it bluntly. Rome has all along gone directly, and quite openly I might add, against Christ';s suggestions regarding separating the church from the state. I have literally hundreds of articles that show Rome';s "not so hidden" agenda regarding forcing the USA Government to form an IMAGE of their form of government upon the American people and the World at large. That section of the website became so large because of all the articles that I literally had to split it into four separate pages. Some time after starting the research I decided to stop updating the page because there were far too many articles coming in. It was THAT obvious! Rome has been attacking both, the constitution as well as the church & state separation for decades. And now they have what they worked so hard for. To top it off, just as prophecied, thanks to Pat Robertson, the protestant churches have extended a helping hand across the gulf and are now helping the government do all this for Rome! Robertson in fact leads the charge "supposedly" from outside Rome. But when you look at what Rome was doing for decades, and how they always infiltrate churches from within so as to make them into their Roman image, you now realize why Pat Robertson has pushed so hard for this removal of church and state. Truth be known, evidence has been unearthed recently proving Robertson to actually be a Catholic Jesuit . It is by his globally published fruits you can know this! This ministry, as well as others like it, have been warning people for many years that this is Rome';s agenda all along. Prophecy is sure! As prophecied by our Lord, the Government in America has bowed to the pressure of both Rome and her friends. I have over a dozen Newsletters on this topic alone! (See the list at the end of this Newsletter) ALL 501c3 churches and ministries became "government agencies" On March 7, George W. Bush declared in his Executive Order #13397 that all "faith based" entities in the USA fall under the title as GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. This order actually tied the Office of Homeland Security with those "faith based" churches on that day as well. This is why we saw Government spies in U.S. churches reporting back to the White House any and all preachers that spoke against the Government from their pulpits. Especially in 2004 prior to the election Bush so desperately needed to win! What they learned from those churches made their next move obvious. Since they now know the majority of the people are aware of what they';re up to, it is now the Governments job to stop the negative speaking preachers so as to calm the storm they themselves have generated and create a false sense of security as well as "peace and safety." FREE SPEECH WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN CHURCHES! Agape Press News Briefs Commentary & News Briefs Wednesday, October 2, 2002 ...After a tough debate last night in the House chamber, Congressman Walter Jones' Houses of Worship Political Speech Protection Act was voted down this morning. If it had passed, the bill would have freely allowed political speech inside churches without the fear of the loss of tax-exempt status with the Internal Revenue Service. When the vote finally came in, the legislation was defeated 237-178. There were 16 abstentions. Following this action by the House, churches will remain the only place where "free speech" is not allowed in the United States Are Political Spies in Churches? -cbn.com, July 2, 2004 In the United States, with presidential elections only months away, political spies may be attending Sunday church services. The Kansas City Star reports that in Johnson County volunteers from a liberal group called the "Mainstream Coalition" will attend Sunday services in different churches; 100 volunteers will slip into church, trying to catch political statements from the pulpit which might violate U.S. federal law. Since the preachers of these churches wouldn';t bow to Government strong-arming, the government had to pull the ace they had up their sleeve. When Robertson rallied in DC with 15000 supporters back in 2002 he created an obvious need before the powers that be to do as he (Rome) wanted all along. A few preachers here and there speaking out is no big problem. Rome knew this, and needed a way to make the problem worse so as to ensure their long desired agenda. So, Robertson was called upon to fan the flames so as to make those in D.C. wake up and start pushing a strict agenda against the churches. The Jesuits in the U.S. Government knew all along this day was coming when they created the 501C3 tax free status. They just wanted to speed things up for obvious reasons. (Rev. 12:12) Once the churches fell for the carrot of mammon (money) dangling before their eyes and incorporated with the state, they had no more say as to what they could or could not do, or could or could not preach. This is why we saw the sudden change in the IRS back in the 80';s regarding any and all new churches that forced them to comply with Catholic dogma if they desired tax free status. That "testing of the waters" telegraphed the obvious greed of the "preachers of filthy lucre" to those holding the strings. They knew they could play the pastors as easy as puppets because the cash they were making via the "tax break" proved to be a powerful idol to them. Now when antichristian laws pop up as prophecied, the greedy pastors have no choice but to go along. If they don';t, the IRS will remove their cherished idol and slap millions of dollars of fines and penalties on them forcing them into literal bankruptcy. Seeing how easy that was to pull off, it was a no-brainer to predict the following executive order would be penned by the Bush administration on March 7, 2006. Executive Order: Responsibilities of the Department of Homeland Security with Respect to Faith-Based and Community Initiatives By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to help the Federal Government coordinate a national effort to expand opportunities for faith-based and other community organizations and to strengthen their capacity to better meet America's social and community needs, it is hereby ordered as follows: Section 1. Establishment of a Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives at the Department of Homeland Security. (a) The Secretary of Homeland Security (Secretary) shall establish within the Department of Homeland Security (Department) a Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives (Center). (b) The Center shall be supervised by a Director appointed by Secretary. The Secretary shall consult with the Director of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives (WHOFBCI Director) prior to making such appointment. … Sec. 2. Purpose of Center. The purpose of the Center shall be to coordinate agency efforts to eliminate regulatory, contracting, and other programmatic obstacles to the participation of faith-based and other community organizations in the provision of social and community services. Sec. 3. Responsibilities of the Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives. In carrying out the purpose set forth in section 2 of this order, the Center shall: (a) conduct, in coordination with the WHOFBCI Director, a department-wide audit to identify all existing barriers to the participation of faith-based and other community organizations in the delivery of social and community services by the Department, including but not limited to regulations, rules, orders, procure-ment, and other internal policies and practices, and outreach activities that unlawfully discriminate against, or otherwise discourage or disadvantage the participation of faith-based and other community organizations in Federal programs; (b) coordinate a comprehensive departmental effort to incorporate faith-based and other community organizations in Department programs and initiatives to the greatest extent possible; (c) propose initiatives to remove barriers identified pursuant to section 3(a) of this order, including but not limited to reform of regulations, procurement, and other internal policies and practices, and outreach activities; (d) propose the development of innovative pilot and demonstration programs to increase the participation of faith-based and other community organizations in Federal as well as State and local initiatives; and … Sec. 4. Reporting Requirements. … (ii) a summary of the technical assistance and other information that will be available to faith-based and other community organizations regarding the program activities of the agency and the preparation of applications or proposals for grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and procurement. … GEORGE W. BUSH THE WHITE HOUSE, March 7, 2006. Full Article: http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/03/20060307-5.html If you have a 501C3 tax free status, you will be expected to comply with all these "rules and regulations" and any other additions they deem necessary. The government now holds the strings and there isn';t thing one you can do about it. If you do not agree in any way shape or form with the government you will loose your tax free status and be investigated to the point where all previous years as a tax free entity will be audited and eventually rescinded. Then you, your church board, and anyone else associated with the church in the "decision" making process will be liable for back taxes, excise taxes, as well as penalties that will literally shut you down. In short, if you are a church 20 years and are found at fault you will be financially ruined and forced into bankruptcy. Truth is they already "tested" this out recently in November of 2001 so as to educate themselves on the problems entailed in annihilating churches. This is the main topic of my "Roman Catholic IRS" page. I was also informed just the other day that some Sabbath keeping churches and ministries that fell for the 501C3 trap have in fact tried to have it removed by contacting the IRS. However, in the attempt, the IRS stated quite boldly they would fine them as well as confiscate all properties and furnishings gathered over the life of the 501C3. So, yes, this is a foothold that has become overwhelming to some! Need I state what the right thing to do is? Matthew 16:26, "For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" If you';re not a church yet, then you will be expected to comply with these "rules and regs," that is of course if you seek the tax free status. Problem is, churches are already tax free according to the constitution, as well as according to the following IRS agent under oath… The evidence as to what we are saying, though denied by most preachers, was made clear on January 24 this year in Tampa, Florida. IRS agent Melvin Blough testified in federal court that "once a church obtains the status of 501(c)(3) under the IRC they are trapped. The only way to be removed from a 501(c)(3) status is if the IRS chooses to remove the exemption. So if you dissolve the corporation and continue on as ABC church, an unincorporated church, you're still trapped in their web and under their control." He further testified that a church is automatically exempt under federal law without a 501(c)(3) designation. He also stated under oath that churches request the status just to get the governments stamp of approval. - THE TRUMPET vol. IX - Issue 6 NOV/DEC 2001 Why did the pastors fall for this? It';s because of greed, plain and simple. If you want to be able to go to the local market to buy "non ministry specific" goods without paying taxes you will need a tax free ID number. Not only are they lying when they do this, they are also going against Christ';s written will regarding the separation of church and state! The only way a church can get that tax free number is to INCORPORATE WITH THE STATE! Then the 501C3 is assured, and the tax ID number is given. That';s how the CHURCH & STATE (image of the beast) prophecy was actually fulfilled. The enforcement comes.. well... I was going to say later, but it';s actually happening NOW. The "church & state" image of the beast has first been created behind closed doors in this country for years by those church leaders greedy enough to fall for this trap. It';s only NOW that the government is going to flex its muscles because the timing is right and hundreds of thousands of churches are in their trap. They needed a few decades of greed filled preachers and pastors to go for the "extra" money they save in taxes. Now almost ALL churches are INCORPORATED WITH THE STATE! And if you are a government agency, and a 510C3 tax free status actually makes you a government agency, then you too MUST comply with the rules and regs. And if you don';t… well, read this… The Taxman Goes to Church Why is the IRS in the business of reading sermons? from THE WALL STREET JOURNAL Editorial Page Friday, August 25, 2006 12:01 a.m. EDT When the Rev. George F. Regas delivered a sermon opposing the Iraq War in All Saints Episcopal Church in Pasadena, Calif., two days before the 2004 presidential election, he expected to upset a few members of the congregation. Instead, he seems to have upset the Internal Revenue Service, which began an investigation that is still under way. All Saints isn't the only church to fall out of the good graces of the IRS. Under the 1954 Revenue Act, 501(c)(3) organizations risk losing their tax-exempt status if they "participate in, or intervene in . . . any political campaign on behalf of any candidate for political office." Over the past two years scores of organizations have faced scrutiny for allegedly mixing their political convictions with their religious ones. And this summer the IRS expanded a program it first launched in 2004 to take direct aim at political advocacy inside houses of worship. The new crackdown, which the IRS calls the Political Activity Compliance Initiative, has so far put some 15,000 nonprofits--mostly churches--on notice that preaching politics puts them at risk of audits, fines or, in some cases, the loss of tax-exempt status. The IRS has also announced it will no longer wait for complaints to come in, but will instead take action "to prevent violations." It will be reviewing the content of sermons, it says, as well as the financial books of religious organizations. The free exercise of religion could now come with a hefty bill. Antiwar Sermon Brings IRS Warning By Patricia Ward Biederman and Jason Felch, Times Staff Writers The Internal Revenue Service has warned one of Southern California's largest and most liberal churches that it is at risk of losing its tax-exempt status because of an antiwar sermon two days before the 2004 presidential election. … On June 9, the church received a letter from the IRS stating that "a reasonable belief exists that you may not be tax-exempt as a church . " The federal tax code prohibits tax-exempt organizations, including churches, from intervening in political campaigns and elections. The letter went on to say that "our concerns are based on a Nov. 1, 2004, newspaper article in the Los Angeles Times and a sermon presented at the All Saints Church discussed in the article." The IRS cited The Times story's description of the sermon as a "searing indictment of the Bush administration's policies in Iraq" and noted that the sermon described "tax cuts as inimical to the values of Jesus." As Bacon spoke, 1984 Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu, a co-celebrant of Sunday's Requiem Eucharist, looked on. Many more articles then this can and have been posted proving as these two prove. Now I agree that we need to keep church & state separate. However, notice the hypocrisy here. The government has had religious laws (blue laws) for decades. These laws force all their agencies to be closed on "religious" holidays, of which "Sunday" is now considered one. Now yes I know full well Sunday is not the Sabbath, but they think it is a religious day. They place "in God we trust" on Federal Reserve Notes. They have crosses covering all military cemeteries. They have "mangers" on government property every December 25th. The list goes on and on as to how much Constantine';s suggestions have been taken to heart. What is obvious to me is that the government says we must remove separation when it benefits them, and then they allow it when it benefits them as well. It';s always a win win situation with those in power. So.. how is this a bad thing? Looking back in history we find that mixing religion with civil power always ends in disaster. With their new found power back in the dark ages the Vatican killed over 500 million innocent men, women and children simply because they could. With the power of the church being backed by the power of the land, you end up with absolute power. With that said, how long will it be before we begin to see the U.S. Government being solicited by the "Vaticanized" churches to help them in enforcing their "moral" or "religious" agenda? Not long it seems… Church and State Unite Against Divorce Clergy and state government leaders in Oklahoma are trying to curb the state's high divorce rate. Anthony Jordan, executive director of the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, and other faith leaders, along with the governor, recently signed a community marriage policy. The policy prevents a clergy member from marrying a couple that has not undergone premarital counseling. -AdventistReview.org, April 13, 2005 L.A. parishes work with police to cut crime, make neighborhoods safe May 28, 2003 - LOS ANGELES (CNS) -- Los Angeles Catholic churches are among groups playing a critical role in training residents to organize around their concerns about safe neighborhoods, develop strategies and work with police to combat crime. In April, some 200 residents, religious leaders and area police gathered at a community center south of downtown Los Angeles near St. Vincent Church to discuss safety plans for their crime-ridden neighborhood. Chicago Suburb Battles Crime With Clergy May 30, 2003 By Brandon Loomis Associated Press Writer HARVEY, Ill. (AP) - The mayor of this crime-ridden Chicago suburb says the town needs help that conventional forces cannot render. So he has turned to six Christian ministers, one for each ward. In a move that worries civil libertarians, Mayor Eric Kellogg has appointed the volunteer chaplains to comfort crime victims and promote neighborhood activism in the poverty-stricken town of 30,000. Kellogg said the ministers' unpaid duties do not violate the separation of church and state because they do not proselytize. "We're not dealing with separation. We're dealing with collaboration," Kellogg said Wednesday. The American Civil Liberties Union worries that a line has nonetheless been crossed. "Our major concern is that this really amounts to a government promotion of religious values, and a particular religious value," said Ed Yohnka, spokesman for the group's Chicago office. "When you have a tragedy, there are many people who would turn to their faith. The question is whether government should be sending someone out there to promote their particular faith." Now do you see how easy Sunday laws will be enforced? There are more articles of course of churches seeking civil powers to help them. But this smattering should be enough to illustrate that yes, the churches are looking to the civil powers already for assistance just as Rome has always done. They are following Rome';s lead on this one so as to enforce their religious ideas on the masses, and in so doing they are creating the image of the beast all the way down to its desire to use FORCE! Need I remind you of this "follow the leader" mentality and how forced many into early graves back in the 1600';s? "Every man and woman shall repair in the morning to the divine service and sermons preached upon the Sabbath (Sunday), and in the afternoon to divine service, and catechizing, upon pain for the first fault to lose their provision and the allowance for the whole week following; for the second, to lose the said allowance and also be whipped; and for the third to suffer death."!!! -Laws, and Orders, Divine, Politique, & Martial For the Colony in Virginia: first established by Sir Thomas Gates, Knight, Lieutenant - General, the 24th of May, 1610 A word of warning… Please don';t think that just because you';re not a pastor or a preacher that you';re safe in these "government" funded "faith based" 501C3 churches. Since they are "faith based funded" you are now being watched and reported on by the church staff. If they refuse to do so, they will in fact loose their faith based funding and are then placed in certain financial jeopardy. The money they can loose far outweighs their loyalty to you, your spouse or your children! You alone will suddenly become the problem, and seeing how real Christians love to preach TRUTH, you will be dis-fellowshipped. But not before being "tagged" a subversive worthy of observation by big brother. Biblical fact is, Jesus Himself declared the following… · Luke 20:25, "And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's." The government seeks taxes which are in fact money, (mammon) and the things of God are most assuredly not money. With that said, is it not written… · Matthew 6:24, "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." Yet the following United States Representative states Jesus LIED? Rep. Harris: Church-state separation 'a lie' POSTED: 5:37 p.m. EDT, August 28, 2006 MIAMI, Florida (AP) -- U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris told a religious journal that separation of church and state is "a lie" and God and the nation's founding fathers did not intend the country be "a nation of secular laws." …Harris made the comments -- which she clarified Saturday -- in the Florida Baptist Witness, the weekly journal of the Florida Baptist State Convention, which interviewed political candidates and asked them about religion and their positions on issues. Separation of church and state is "a lie we have been told," Harris said in the interview, published Thursday, saying separating religion and politics is "wrong because God is the one who chooses our rulers." -Copyright 2006 The Associated Press. The Christian bible easily exposes this woman to be a liar. However, seeing how there is already a prophecied famine in the land of people refusing to open bibles. (Amos 8:11) This "assumed" educated politician will be considered intelligent and therefore trustworthy. She may be intelligent in matters of the state, but matters of the eternal truth she is far lacking indeed. Still, many will place their trust in her over Scripture simply because the prophecy states their bibles are dust collectors and they have a massive lack of knowledge. In other words, if you don';t read the warning signs you will blindly fall in the pit. And for those that do see her as a liar, if they speak up they are either financially ruined or dis-fellowshipped and placed under governmental observation. And it is ALL perfectly legal. By the way, this same Congresswoman stated the following just two days before stating the previous... Congresswoman: Elect Christians or "legislate sin" The Orlando Sentiel, August 26, 2006 By Jim Stratton Rep. Katherine Harris, a Florida Republican who is seeking a U.S. Senate seat, said this week that God did not intend for the United States to be a "nation of secular laws" and that a failure to elect Christians to political office will allow lawmaking bodies to "legislate sin." …Harris said her religious beliefs "animate" everything she does, including her votes in Congress. She then warned voters that if they do not send Christians to office, they risk creating a government that is doomed to fail. Full article http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2003226852_harris26.html Now I too believe that people of faith should be our leaders. But if they are TRUE people of faith they would know what Jesus meant when He declared a separation of church and state was necessary. Has this woman never read about Rome';s rampage during the dark ages using the church and state form of government to kill over 500 million Christians that refused to do as "the state religion deemed holy?" With that said, what do you suppose will be the end result of Congresswoman Katherine Harris'; animated voting process? "If we believe religion is true, we should be reintroducing a criminal penalty for those who fail to attend church on Sunday" -Daily Independent 4-11-98 -Sara Maitland "On the issues of belief" Before closing, which religion do you suppose will be considered the global authority or which leader on earth will receive primacy in such matters of the "faith?" Cardinal Kasper to unveil new work on papal primacy Vatican, Oct. 11, 2004 (CWNews.com) - Cardinal Walter Kasper (bio - news), the president of the Pontifical Council for Christian Unity, will unveil a new work this week: a book entitled The Petrine Ministery, containing the work of both Catholic and Orthodox scholars. The book, for which Cardinal Kasper served as editor, contains presentations delivered at a May 2003 symposium in Rome. Responding to an invitation from Pope John Paul II (bio - news), who had called for new reflections on the proper exercise of papal authority, the symposium brought together a dozen theologians, equally divided between Catholic and Orthodox, to discuss papal primacy. Pope Explains Primacy of Peter via Scripture Draws From Gospels and Acts of the Apostles VATICAN CITY, JUNE 7, 2006 (Zenit.org).- Benedict XVI used the Gospels and other biblical passages to explain how Christ entrusted a pre-eminent role to Peter among the apostles, to guarantee unity in the Church. Addressing the 50,000 people gathered today in St. Peter's Square for the weekly general audience, the Pope dedicated a third catechesis to the figure of the fisherman from Galilee, presenting Peter on this occasion as "the rock on which Christ founded the Church." "Let us pray," the Holy Father said, "so that the primacy of Peter, entrusted to poor human beings, may always be exercised in this original sense desired by the Lord, so that it will be increasingly recognized in its true meaning by brothers who are still not in communion with us." -ZE06060705 Amazing how EVERY prophecy of Antichrist points right back to Rome isn';t it!? With all these new laws in place, with all these so called "Protestant" leaders bowing to Rome, with the image of the beast secured in both the government as well as all "501C3" churches, one can easily see how easy this prophecy is to be fulfilled… · "And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed."-Revelation 13:15 SPEAK = LEGISLATE LAW CAUSE = ENFORCE LAW The 501C3 was obviously a trap. Preachers with understanding of the end time prophecies have been stating that very fact for just over 5 decades now. Problem is, the monetary greed of the other preachers far outweighed the concrete evidence they peered into. Now this small insignificant "tax free" foothold has become a snare they could never imagine. It is so overwhelming and so massive now that even if they wanted to they simply cannot break free of it without an absolute financial disaster. Especially if they have become a large church and have been around for a few years. If they refuse to comply with the Federal Government on this one, the families of the church board will be financially ruined guaranteed. Yes, once again, Satan has been able to dangle the "almighty dollar" before the eyes of the weak so as to claim his prey! And all prophecy had to say in warning was… · 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 Lord doesn';t need to explain the details, because doing so would give the wicked the upper hand. Only those seeking truth would dig deep enough to discover it. Our Lord just needed to inform us they would do it. How it comes to fruition has become plain enough now. John 14:29 becomes a glaring beacon for those that trusted Christian prophecy all along now doesn';t it? Some won';t believe until AFTER the fulfillment. I say, so be it. Better late then never eh? Are you ready? Are you sure? Why I see this as FULFILLED If I was to ask most students of prophecy this one question, I am sure they would all answer the same. QUESTION: If the death decree Bill was passed today, would you consider the prophecy fulfilled today? Or would you consider it fulfilled when the date of enforcement of the Bill came? ANSWER: Fulfilled today. The reason students of prophecy would agree it's fulfilled the day the Bill was passed is because we all have proof that our Heavenly Father saw it fulfilled on that day. Where's the proof? That's when plague #1 starts. The Lord doesn't wait for the enforcement which we known happens the last 15 days of plague #6. And so this is why I see the the image of the beast prophecy as being fulfilled when the bill was passed way back in 1954. The fact Trump made it law 63 years later doesn't matter to me any more than it matters to our God who we know sees the end from the beginning. (Isaiah 46:10) Once the act of passing the Bill commences, the prophecy is fulfilled. No need to wait for enforcement. Now yes, I said it was "alive" in 2016 in the video listed above when Trump made it law. Yet some do believe it can only be alive when it has power on day one. But we need to understand that our Lord';s prophecy never contradicts His created nature. What I mean is; when a man is born and becomes "alive," he has no power to even feed himself as an infant. Only when he comes of age is his power realized. Do we negate all the years of his growing up to declare he is not alive until he comes of age? Of course not. Hence the reason our God will send the plagues on the very day the death decree Bill is passed. (For more info on this death decree and the "one hour" the powers that be will have to enforce it in plague #6, even though they will fail, click here) The same holds true when it comes to the image of the beast prophecy. The Bill became law on Sabbath, December 02, 2017 as a direct mockery to the God of creation, for it is the "image of the beast" in the USA that will enforce the mark of the Roman Popes. I believe this is why Trump signed that law on the true Sabbath of the Creator God so as to grant the power of the apostate preachers to demand all break the true Sabbath by declaring the Roman day of the Sun as Sabbath. As we saw in 2006 when President Bush allowed for the 501c3 to have "law" status under an executive order, the pastors with the 501c3 were too fearful and politically infantile so as to go forth as they were allowed to. Therefore, 11 years later Trump granted them their permanent power in the 501c3 law. Still, they are still "growing up" in their new found power and so they need to learn the best method of approach to use their power as everyone alive will soon see first hand in the coming days, and especially when they indoctrinate everyone to believe climate change is real, for they will soon use climate change as a way to make all believe we must keep Sunday holy to stop the disasters. What they won't say is, the increase in calamities has nothing to do with climate change and everything to do with the final signs of Christ's return. As I assume, some will be satisfied with my brief explanation on why I see the image of the beast prophecy fulfilled. But for those that need a deeper explanation as to how I came about this understanding, please read on. First and foremost, the prophecy: Revelation 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. As we already know, the "physical" appearance of the image of the beast is in fact Protestant churches joining with the State so as to emulate the church & state structure of the beast in Rome who when in "absolute" power during their prophesied 1260 years was able to use civil and religious powers to persecute and even kill hundreds of millions of Christians. The 501c3 contract is the image of the beast in Rome, for the only way to get a 501c3 contract in the USA (or any other nation) is to incorporate or "join your church with the State" in the same way the Pope's power is displayed. For the Vatican is not just a Sovereign State since 1929, it is also the Roman Catholic Church. It is true that the 501c3 law is now permanent, but as is also true, the pastors with the 501c3 are still working out the means by which to go forth as prophesied. Even though some may not see what I see, there will definitely come a day that they will see it clearly because Christian prophecy cannot be changed no matter what. Hence the reason I have always believed and declared before all that if I was an obedient Christian above the age of accountability back in 1954 when the 501c3 Bill was originally penned and passed; I would still openly declare prophecy fulfilled that very year no matter what the "scholars" in every church would say seeing how the prophesied power to enforce the Bill was still 63 years in the future. Since our Father in Heaven sees the end from the beginning on this, so can we as we have His prophetic Word in hand. No, we don't know the dates when this will happen, but we do know the outcome. The reason I would say prophecy fulfilled is because of what I see in Revelation 13:15, and I know as per the doctrinal fact proclaimed in Isaiah 46:10 that our God surely knows the end from the beginning. That being the case, when He declared in Revelation 13:15 that the "image of the beast" would both "speak and cause" certain laws to be lobbied and enforced later in our day so as to bring about the long spoken prophecy of the mark, I can without hesitation say prophecy was fulfilled now; even though some may disagree due to the fact that a mere "portion" of the prophecy has yet to be fulfilled. Basic reality is, when was the last time any of us saw a Bible prophecy declared and never fulfilled as written? NEVER! Plus, since our God sees it fulfilled already, why would His children assume it's not fulfilled? Has He not declared it to happen exactly as it has in Revelation 13:15 long before that Bill was ever placed on paper? Since He sees it fulfilled, why would His children not see it as well? Since our God knows the end from the beginning, no matter what political leaders say regarding certain Bills they pass or even laws enforced that are already on the books; it doesn';t nullify the fact that prophecy is fulfilled. For it was prophesied they would create an image of the beast in Rome and the Bill was penned that did exactly that in 1954. And so regardless of the timing of the Bill';s final day of enforcement, the prophecy is still seen by our God as fulfilled just as it does for those that study His prophetic Word. Fact is, as it was in Esther';s day, so it is to be in our day. When Haman wrote that Bill legalizing the killing of all Jews, even though it wasn';t "enforced" until 12 months later, I am sure all the Jews at that time clearly saw that the very day that Bill was passed meant that within 12 months their lives would be in danger. To them, that Bill was already a done deal. And so, as I too see it as a done deal. The 501c3 made the prophecy a "done deal" the very day Lyndon Baines Johnson signed it in July of 1954. Our God declared it would happen, it happened, that settles it. What many are also unaware of is that Trump sought to repeal the 501c3 completely in his campaign speeches so as to allow political speech from the pulpit in all churches; but as I stated in this video after Trump "vowed" at a vocational prayer breakfast to "totally destroy" the Johnson Amendment (501c3) during his campaign, I could easily declare that Christian prophecy will be fulfilled no matter what Trump or any other political leader says. Therefore I did in fact state that Trump will not remove the 501c3 completely as he promised because our "God is not a man, that He should lie." (Numbers 23:19) But as I also declared in those videos, Trump will be able to amend it, because you cannot change Christian prophecy by completely removing the church and state structure of the 501c3. Trump even said (in this video) that the (apostate) Christians in the USA are "the most powerful lobbyist – the biggest group of people." His statement allowed many to finally see that Christian prophecy is THAT accurate. The apostate Christians and especially their leaders will come against God's people in the coming days. But fret not my brothers and sisters. For we have a God that clearly stated in Isaiah 54:17 that, "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD." And He also said in Matthew 10:28 that we should "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." And just so you know, even though Trump did what he did on December 02, 2017; later on May 04, 2017 he signed the "Presidential Executive Order Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty." Now, and as expected, this executive order does not repeal the Johnson Amendment (501c3) at all. Nor does it "legally" allow pastors or preachers to ability to endorse a candidate from their pulpits, but, and this is an obvious fact in reality here, the executive or does stop any government harassment against any preacher that does endorse a candidate. In fact, it says in in section 2 that "the Order merely directs the Government not to take adverse action against religious organizations that it would not take against other organizations in the enforcement of the § 501(c)(3) restrictions." - (source) Many saw this as a major favor given them by Trump, when in actuality, it gave all the pastors the power to persecute and even kill the actual obedient Christians in the coming days when the mark is enforced. This is why Trump was puffed up as a "people's president" so as to make his methods appear Christian when in fact they are anti-Christian to the core. In his EO Trump stated that if the government is going to go after churches for speaking politically, it will have to also go after secular businesses for doing the same. And so again, Trump did not "totally destroy" the 501c3 as he promised, because again, you can NOT change Christian prophecy. To further verify this as fact, the Washington Post also stated that "Douglas Laycock, a professor at University of Virginia Law and an expert on religious freedom. (said) It suggests churches should not be found guilty of implied endorsements where secular organizations would not be." (source) This is no doubt the reason we see the following facts being posted for all to see... House Approves Bill Allowing Churches to Engage in Politics Without Losing Tax-Exempt Status House votes to prevent IRS from punishing churches engaging in politics Now yes, some still believe that the state must be subservient to the church for the prophecy to be fulfilled. And even though God the Father knows the end from the beginning, which means His children that study His prophetic Word will see it His way as well; let';s allow for their assumption to be valid for the sake of argument. What they have in the writing of the Bill, or even the enforced law is not always the same in reality as we all know. For it has already been shown in numerous videos and articles all over the Internet that political statements are in fact being "allowed" on church pulpits to the point that actual politicians are speaking from those pulpits inside church buildings without harassment and they do so boldly on camera so as to calm the hearts of the pastors who will soon do the same. Still, some may believe this doesn';t mean "prophecy fulfilled." But it is here I beg to differ. For those that cannot see what we see; they can however see actual laws in action before their very own eyes. 5 points to ponder #1, The "blue laws" (Sunday Laws) enforced in 1781 shows that we in America already have enforced religious laws on the books that caused the State to be subservient to the church as far back as 1961. They';re called Blue Laws or Sunday Laws as most know them as today, thanks to the prophetic message put forth in clarity. I see it as no mistake and actually as a major red flag that Lyndon Johnson authored the 501c3 Bill in 1954 and just 7 years later in 1961 we see the "Blue Laws" come to fruition during the Kennedy administration wherein Lyndon Johnson was also vice president. To this day it';s impossible to buy stamps or even enter a bank on Sundays. And if you notice, and especially in rural areas, some convenient stores prevent the sale of beer, wine and liquor on Sundays as well. In short, the hurdle they needed to surmount regarding the passing of a religious law was handled back in 1961 when the citizens were less apt to protest it so as to avoid any issues in 2017 and beyond. #2, Christmas day is an official national "Christian" holiday backed by Federal law. (source) Again, you cannot buy stamps on Christmas either, even though it doesn't always fall on a Sunday. And so again, the State is in fact bowing to the power of the church as prophesied. #3, On the back of every dollar bill and all coins we read the words, "in God we trust," proving the state structure in America is in fact subservient to the church once again. So much so they declare themselves subservient on the very currency of the nation. #4, Many States do not allow alcohol to be sold in stores or restaurants on Sundays proving the State is subservient to the Church. See a list of some of these States here… https://www.timesmojo.com/what-states-do-not-sell-alcohol-on-sunday/ #5, Another fact that the State is subservient to the church is when President Bush setup his "Faith Based Initiative… which honors the role spirituality plays in the communities we serve." "The "church" was able to use its "power" to demand government help and approval when dealing with drug addition as well as the poor in the community. And during the "pandemic" the Biden administration even stated on the White House website that "President Biden is signing an executive order reestablishing the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, which will promote partnerships with religious and secular organizations to better serve people in need." (Source) No, they're not truly concerned with "people in need" or even drug addicts as the millions of homeless and drug addicted people confirm daily. But they do need to promote that claim so as to have a "legitimate" reason to create in every State a subservient mindset so as to please the man of sin in Rome who has been instrumental in bringing all this to fruition all along. What we';re seeing here is the church and government working together in a stealthy manner (for now) so as to build the infrastructure needed behind closed doors so as to assure that when their dying god says to allow the church 100% power over the State; all the necessary cogs in the wheel will be well oiled, set, spinning and established. The fact we see politicians speaking inside churches pushing their political agenda and especially during election years proves what the 501c3 says on paper and what they';re truly doing in reality are not the same. But, they are one in the same with that which is prophesied. And that is why I see it the way I do. My thought process on this is that, why should I wait until the people are already entrapped by Rome when the law that is already on paper behind closed doors is made known and enforced wherein no one can spiritually prepare effectively. Since our Father sees the end from the beginning in His Word, out of love for His Son's bride, He warns us thousands of years in advance. Therefore, why am I questioned when I seek to warn those the Lord sends my way days, years or even decades in advance? If I am in error proclaiming the prophecy a done deal, then so is the Holy Writ. But that is not something I would ever declare, promote or condone. Interesting tidbit I dug up on this recently. This is concrete evidence that they ARE ALLOWED to speak politically in churches. Check out this article: HEADLINE: Can political candidates speak at churches? Yes, if they follow these five rules "Churches and other religious communities can invite candidates to speak, but they need to follow these rules." (See source and rules here) Yes, they say there are "5 rules" for doing so in that article; but when you read the rules and then see how they break them each and every time they speak, and this is especially true with rule #4 & 5, it proves what they say and what they do is not just different before the eyes of the people, it is a fulfilled fact before the Bride of Christ that has the eyes that see what their Father saw all along. In fact, this video proves this hands down… As you watch this, you will see she said all this inside the church "cornerstone Christian Center in Basalt, CO on June 26th, 2022" JEREMIAH AGREES: Jeremiah 15:8 Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city. Jeremiah speaks on this as if it's already happened; but then that's how Bible prophets always see things. Jeremiah said this was already happening because he knew that God already made the decision and so he declared it DONE just as the Father would see it as done due to His ability to see the end from the beginning. Truth is, there were not many "widows" in Jehoiakim's time when Jeremiah made this statement. It wasn't until he died and Zedekiah became king that this all went down. For clarification, I hope all see that I said what I did about the 501c3 being a done deal years before Trump made it law because as I also said, if I was preaching in 1954 when LBJ drafted the 501c3 Bill, I would have declared "prophecy fulfilled" then, just as I did not too many years ago. Reason being is, it could be declared DONE at that time in the same way Jeremiah said it was DONE in Jehoiakim's time because the prophecy was clear about how the image of the beast is formed in the USA just as much as the prophecy was clear as to what the Lord was about to do in Jeremiah's day. The 501c3 literally causes the churches to be a duplicate (image) of the church & state beast system in Rome. PAUL AGREES: Romans 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. By the way, Revelation 13:8 also says, And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. The Word says Jesus was "slain from the foundation of the world," yet historic record confirms that actually happened in 31AD. I hope my point was not just made, but understood. FOR THE SDA All SDA's know their church is a 501c3 organization. But do they know what their own prophet said about all that? She said... "When the early church departed from God and imbibed pagan errors, she became Babylon When she united with the state, she fell and, as an organization, was the body of Christ no longer.While the Reformation churches held fast to the word, Christ was with them.Then they crystallized their various errors into creeds and endeavored thus to confine God';s word, they made themselves daughters of Babylon. When some of them united with the state, they fell, and God had to use other people, called out of Babylon to carry forward His work. Now [in 1896] among these very churches which came out of the second Babylon, confusion reigns; and now [in1896] great Babylon, including later daughters, is in adulterous union with the kings of earth, and is endeavoring to make that union stronger. God calls no church Babylon which holds to His word, and follows the light that shines from it, even though there are in its membership many who do not know Christ. When the controlling influence of a church is downward, it erects some other standard besides God';s word…It has ever been true that a back-slidden body, one that has turned from God';s word to men, from God';s power to the state, was never reformed in itself. Invariably God';s message has called out those from the fallen church who would do His will and preach His gospel. Israel went down to Egypt for help, and their captivity and loss of power followed. Out of the captives God gathered a faithful band to do His work. The Jewish church failed,and God called out the apostolic church to do His bidding. The Roman Church failed, and out of it God called the churches of the Reformation. Some of these churches failed to advance, and God called out others to bear His gospel to the world such as the Baptist, Methodist, Congregationalist, Disciple, Adventists. His last ‘called-out'; people will know no standard but His word, no power but His Spirit." - First Quarter, Lesson IX, February 29, 1896, p. 33-34 Rather blunt is it not? SHE PREDICTS the SDR church would be "called out." ALSO NOTICE THIS: The SDA church REMOVED all references to their 501c3 contracts with the second beast from Sister White's Writings. See this VIDEO: SDA Church Removed Loud Cry & 501c3 from Great Controversy. (also see this BLOG entry) Look in the books you have now from the SDA books stores and tell me, do you see thsi following quote from 1899? Iron and Clay--Mingled Churchcraft and Statecraft. "We have come to a time when God's sacred work is represented by the feet of the image in which the iron was mixed with the miry clay. God has a people, a chosen people, whose discernment must be sanctified, who must not become unholy by laying upon the foundation wood, hay, and stubble. Every soul who is loyal to the commandments of God will see that the distinguishing feature of our faith is the seventh-day Sabbath. If the government would honor the Sabbath as God has commanded, it would stand in the strength of God and in defense of the faith once delivered to the saints. But statesmen will uphold the spurious sabbath, and will mingle their religious faith with the observance of this child of the papacy, placing it above the Sabbath which the Lord has sanctified and blessed, setting it apart for man to keep holy, as a sign between Him and His people to a thousand generations. The mingling of churchcraft and statecraft is represented by the iron and the clay. This union is weakening all the power of the churches. This investing the church with the power of the state will bring evil results. Men have almost passed the point of God's forbearance. They have invested their strength in politics, and have united with the papacy. But the time will come when God will punish those who have made void His law, and their evil work will recoil upon themselves." (MS 63, 1899).

Yours in Christ, ...Alvin "The Image of the Beast is the Image of the Papacy" -A.T. Jones "The image of the beast is the image of the papacy. The papacy is the union of church and state. And mark this: In this original union of church and state which made the papacy, the church was an apostate church, and the state was an apostate state. That state was formerly a republic, which had apostatized into an imperial monarchy, which had become a military despotism. {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.8} Before Rome became imperial, she was republican. Before there was an emperor, a Cesar, who governed, the government was "the senate and people of Rome." It was altogether by the government of the people—the senate and people, the republic—that the conquests were made by which Rome became imperial,—no longer in truth, a government of the people; but a government by one man supported by the army. It was the state composed of this apostasy of a republic into imperialism,—it was such a state with which the apostate church united; and this made the papacy, "the first beast." {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.9} Now when, in the prophecy, the image of the beast is to be made, it is said "to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast." This shows that it is a government of the people where the image is made. And it is said to them that they shall make a union of church and state. This shows that this is all done in a place where at first there was no union of church and state. That is true of the United States at its formation, and is not true of any other nation that was ever on the earth. {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.10} These things show that the nation is first a republic, and that this nation is the one where these things are at last done. But these things can not be done in a true republic. These things are positively antagonistic to the principles of a true republic. For these things to be done in a country professing to be a republic, there must be an apostasy from the principles of a true republic. {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.11} Now that all this is the truth, and not speculation, is confirmed by the book of Daniel. And this is where comes in the special value of the book of Daniel on the subject of the United States in prophecy. In Daniel 7 there are four great beasts, which represent four great successive kingdoms, or powers, in the earth. The fourth one was "diverse from all. . . that were before it." These four were Babylon, Medo-Persia, Grecia, and Rome. And Rome was diverse from all before it, in that it was a republic. It was while it was a republic, that Rome "devoured, break in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet." And in Dan. 8:24, 25, of this same power even while it was a republic, it is written that "his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power," that "through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand," and "by peace shall destroy many." {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.12} Last year in these columns we showed, from the history, just what was this crafty, peaceful destroying policy; and how his power became mighty, but not by his own power. By the history we showed that Rome, being a republic, a government of the people, made high pretentions to liberty, and to the love of liberty only for the sake of liberty; that for this reason Rome pretended to love and desire liberty for other peoples; that the little states of Greece were struggling against monarchies, that they might themselves be free, and be republics. Solely from love of liberty for the sake only of liberty, and for the sake of humanity, Rome sent her armies and navies across seas to fight the battles and win the causes of those other peoples, only to set them free from oppressive powers, to enjoy the blessings of liberty, of which Rome was the conservator in the world. And then when the battles were fought, the victories won, and the peoples delivered, those peoples WERE NOT FREE. They were more bound and more hopeless than ever because of Rome's greater power than that of the former oppressors. And to-day no man can intelligibly read that history of the Republic of Rome before any audience in the United States, without that audience seeing the Republic of the United States perfectly outlined up to date. {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.13} Now a point particularly to be considered is that this history of the Republic of Rome was sketched in the book of Daniel three hundred and seventy years before it occurred; and then that sketch was closed up and sealed, not for three hundred and seventy years, not till 168 B.C. and onward; BUT for twenty-four hundred years, till "the time of the end." {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 328.14} 329 Why was that sketch of the Roman Republic written, and then closed up and sealed until a time two thousand years after that republic had failed as a republic, and had become imperial?—It was because at this time, "the time of the end," there would be another republic that would go over the same course as did that republic,—would apostatize from republicanism into imperialism, and then would become the tool of an apostate church in a union in the very image of the papacy, which was made by such a union with that apostate republic. And as the union hastened, and actually wrought, the ruin of that apostate republic, so will this union hasten and cause the ruin of this now so far apostate republic. And this sketch of the former was written then, and closed up and sealed until now, so that they that be wise may understand what to do to escape the evil and the ruin that will come, and even now hastens,—a ruin that will come as surely as came the ruin of that former one. {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 329.1} Accordingly, fifteen years ago, by the Spirit of prophecy it was written that this nation would yet "repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government," and that this "national apostasy will be followed by national ruin." {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 329.2} This national apostasy is proceeding daily before the eyes of all the people; and as national apostasy progresses, national ruin hastens. And with this national ruin, comes complete and final ruin of all. Who is ready? Who is warning the people? "Get ready, get ready, get ready." This is present truth. {May 23, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 329.3} For those of you that delve into Numerology (not wise) Rome always demands a show of loyalty from all those governments she controls. 501c3: 5 + 1 X 3 = 666 9th Hour Proof: The Image is ALIVE! When speaking on Revelation 13, A.T. Jones stated, among other things below that "The prophecy is fulfilled. The Image of the Beast is made, and lives in the United States to-day." BELOW STATEMENT / STUDY WAS PRESENTED BY A.T. JONES "THE papacy, the Beast of Revelation 13, was formed of a union of the apostate Church with an apostate Republic. Again an apostate Church -- professed Protestantism -- is fast forming a union between that Church and this other apostate Republic. And thus will be formed the Image of the Beast of Revelation 13. {1901 ATJ, ECE 867.3} 2. In the first ten verses of that chapter there is given a description of the rise and career of a certain power under the symbol of "a beast." Then from the eleventh to the seventeenth verse inclusive, there is given the description of another power under the symbol of "another beast" and "the image of the beast." The first of these powers is also designated as "the first beast," and "the beast which had the wound by a sword." {1901 ATJ, ECE 867.4} 3. The full description of the first one is as follows: -- {1901 ATJ, ECE 867.5} "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. 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. 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. And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him? 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. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear. He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints." {1901 ATJ, ECE 867.6} 4. Every evidence of history certifies to the truth of this scripture as exactly descriptive of the papacy. The description of the "other beast," or the Image of the Beast, is as follows: -- {1901 ATJ, ECE 868.1} "And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and spake as a dragon. 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. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 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. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads; and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." {1901 ATJ, ECE 868.2} 5. This prophecy says that it would be said unto them that "they should make an image to the beast." This would be to make an image to the papacy. The papacy being a union of Church and State, with the Church using the power of the State to enforce the doctrines of the Church and to compel submission to her decrees, the making of an image of this would be only to make or establish an order of things by which a union of Church and State would be created, with the civil power in the hands of the Church to compel submission to Church doctrines, and observance of Church institutions. But in order for this to be made, it must be that before this there was no union of Church and State in the place where this is to be done. As it is necessary to say "that they should make an image" of the papacy, -- that is, union of Church and State, -- it is plain on the face of it that this is said and must be said, in a place where there is no union of Church and State, and where the Church has no control of civil affairs and no connection with the civil power. {1901 ATJ, ECE 868.3} 6. Now where was there ever a place or a nation on earth in which there was no union of Church and State except in the United States alone? With the single exception of the United States government, there never was a government on earth, pagan, papal, or professed Protestant, in which from the beginning of its existence, as such, until this day, there was no union of religion and the State; in which the religious power had no control of, or connection with, the civil power. This is the truth, and any one may satisfy himself of it by thinking, whether little or much. This being the truth, it follows that in the United States is the only place on earth where it could be said that they should make a union of Church and State. Consequently, in the government of the United States alone could the Image of the Beast -- the image of the papacy -- be made. There are many other points corroborative of this, but his is sufficient for this place. {1901 ATJ, ECE 869.1} 7. Because of this prophecy of Rev. 13: 11-17, it has been preached and published by the Seventh-day Adventists for more than forty years that there would be formed in the United States a union of Church and State, with national Sunday legislation -- that there would be made here an image of the papacy. For instance: nearly fifty years ago -- January, 1852 -- a little pamphlet of about seventy-five pages, perhaps 2 12 x 5 inches in size, was published, giving a brief exposition of Revelation 13, and especially that part in verses 11-17. On this point in that pamphlet there was printed the following words: -- {1901 ATJ, ECE 869.2} "The two-horned beast says to them that dwell on the earth, 'Make an image.' The dwellers on the earth, or territory of this beast, it seems, have a part to act in this world. This clearly marks the United States as the scene of action. This is the manner in which laws are made here -- by the representatives of the people. As all men by the Declaration are declared to be equal, it became necessary that some course should be taken by which all could have equal privileges in the construction of the laws. If the whole mass were called together, there would be an endless discussion and no laws made. Therefore the people were to elect such representatives as would carry out their principles; and they were to meet and make laws, which, when passed, should be considered the laws of the people. The image is to be formed by the people or their representatives. {1901 ATJ, ECE 869.3} "It appears probable to us that this Sunday institutions is the very point on which this union will be effected. Here is a point on which all Protestant sects can unite. A point which we may safely say is the important item in the faith of Protestants is their Sunday worship. {1901 ATJ, ECE 870.1} "Verse 15: 'And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.' From this text we may draw two conclusions: -- {1901 ATJ, ECE 870.2} "1. The Image of the Beast is to be made in the same territory where the two-horned beast rules; for the two-horned beast can exercise that authority in no territory but its own. {1901 ATJ, ECE 870.3} "2. That it already has it in its power to give life to the Image of the Beast, or cause the decree to be made and executed. It it not in the power of the United States to pass such laws? They declare 'all men shall be protected in worshiping God according to the dictates of their own consciences.' We see the mass hold the first day of the week as a holy day. If a memorial should be sent in to Congress with one million names signed to it, declaring that their rights were infringed upon, and praying them to pass a solemn enactment that the first day should not be profaned by labor, how soon the result would be a law upon the point! {1901 ATJ, ECE 870.4} "Were the United States, as a body, to pass a law that Sunday should be kept holy, or not profaned by labor, there would be. I conceive, an image to the papacy; for the law would then be in the hands of the Church and she could inflict penalties on those who did not obey the Sunday institution." {1901 ATJ, ECE 870.5} 8. That was printed in 1853. And no man can deny that in 1892 the very things were done which in this exposition of the prophecy were said would be done. The churches professedly representing millions of petitioners, did that year memorialize Congress with threats in behalf of Sunday sacredness; and how soon the result a law upon the point! {1901 ATJ, ECE 870.6} 9. Again: in 1884, this same denomination printed the following on the same prophecy -- Rev. 13:11-17: -- {1901 ATJ, ECE 871.1} "By this first beast is represented the Roman Church, an ecclesiastical body clothed with civil power, having authority to punish all dissenters. The Image of the Beast represents another religious body clothed with similar power. The formation of this image is the work of the beast whose peaceful rise and mild professions render it so striking a symbol of the United States. Here is to be found an image of the papacy. When the churches of our land, uniting upon such points of faith as are held by them in common, shall influence the State to enforce their decrees and sustain their institutions, then will Protestant America have formed an image of the Roman hierarchy." 18 {1901 ATJ, ECE 871.2} 10. This has been done. In 1892-93 the churches of our land did unite upon the Sunday issue, and then united with the Catholic Church itself, and in this unity they influenced the State to enforce the Church decree for Sunday observance, and to sustain the Church institution of Sunday. And in the doing of it, they made the living image of the papacy in this land. Nine years before this was done, we published that it would be done; and now it has been done. On the strength of the prophecy we published that it would come; and on the strength of facts, everybody may know that it has come. The prophecy is fulfilled. The Image of the Beast is made, and lives in the United States to-day. {1901 ATJ, ECE 871.3} 11. Once more: in 1885 this same people published will yield to the demand for a Sunday law." 19 {1901 ATJ, ECE 871.4} To secure the popularity and patronage which were put up at public auction by the churches, the nation's legislators assembled in Congress did yield to the demand for a Sunday law. {1901 ATJ, ECE 871.5} 12. Also in the year 1885 this same people published in a standard work that "our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions." 20 And nobody can fairly deny that this has been and is being steadily fulfilled to the very letter. {1901 ATJ, ECE 871.6} 13. And now the apostasy of Protestantism having developed the very image of that which was developed from he apostasy of Catholicism, there is demanded a revival of true Protestantism to protest against this apostate Protestantism, this Image of the Beast, as at the first, true Protestantism protested against the papacy, the Beast. The ground of this protest is the same as always before and ever -- the ever-lasting gospel, the Commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. And the word of God distinctly calls all to this blessed work. And here is the word: -- {1901 ATJ, ECE 872.1} "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His judgment is come: and worship Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. {1901 ATJ, ECE 872.2} "And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. {1901 ATJ, ECE 872.3} "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: and the smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. {1901 ATJ, ECE 872.4} "And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them. And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap: for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And He that sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped." 21 {1901 ATJ, ECE 872.5} 14. Just here while all are to be compelled to worship the papacy and its image, and to receive its mark, the Lord sends the everlasting gospel to all, calling them to worship Him alone, who made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters, for the hour of His judgment is come. And the sign which He himself has set up that men may know that He is the Lord, the true God, who made heaven and earth and the sea and the fountains of waters, is the Sabbath of the Lord. 22 There is also made the announcement of the fall of Babylon; and then the dreadful warning against obedience to the decrees of the papacy anywhere, or its image in the United States. And the next thing that follows is the coming of the Lord to reap the harvest of the earth. And the harvest is the end of the world. Matt. 13:39. {1901 ATJ, ECE 872.6} 15. The apostasy of Protestantism exalts the papacy, because this is an open confession to the world by professed Protestantism that the papal principles alone are correct. The making of the Image to the Beast restores and magnifies the power of the Beast -- Rev. 13:12. This brings about the situation described in Rev. 13:8. And this in turn develops the fulfillment of Rev. 18:8. The scheme of Leo XIII, as stated on pages 858, 859, is thus caused to succeed. The kings and nations that have been separated from her, are drawn back into illicit connection with her; once more she guides and dominates the nations. Consequently she glorifies herself and lives deliciously; the kings of the earth commit fornication and live deliciously with her, as did the false prophets with Jezebel of old; and therefore she congratulates herself, saying in her heart, "I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow." And saith the Lord: "Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire; for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her." Verse 9. {1901 ATJ, ECE 873.1} 16. The apostasy of Protestantism restores and exalts the papacy, and so assures the success of Leo's scheme. Leo's scheme embraces America, and through this Europe, and through these, "all humanity;" in short, it embraces the world. This is precisely the thing that the prophecy announced long ago that the papacy would do. The success of this scheme marks the perdition, and absolute ruin of the papacy. This ruin therefore of the papacy marks the ruin of the world, the end of the reign of evil, the perfect reign of righteousness -- the complete annihilation of the mystery of iniquity and the everlasting triumph of the mystery of God. 23 {1901 ATJ, ECE 873.2} 17. The movements, both earthly and heavenly which are to accomplish this eternal consummation are now in active progress before the eyes of all the world. For in 1885 it was written: "When our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan, and that the end is near. As the approach of the Roman armies was a sign to the disciples of the impending destruction of Jerusalem, so may this apostasy be a sign to us that the limit of God's forbearance is reached, that the measure of our nation's iniquity is full, and that the angel of mercy is about to take her flight never to return. {1901 ATJ, ECE 874.1} 18. "The Lord is doing His work. All heaven is astir. The Judge of all the earth is soon to arise and vindicate His insulted authority. The mark of deliverance will be set upon the men who keep God's Commandments, who revere His law, and who refuse the mark of the Beast or his Image." 24 {1901 ATJ, ECE 874.2} 19. Then will be consummated the visions, the hopes, the labors, and the sufferings of the faithful Christians of the Middle Ages, of Wicklif, Militz, Conrad, Matthias, Huss, Jerome, Luther,and even all the saints and prophets of all ages; for "In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all that have been slain upon the earth." Then will the voice be heard from heaven, "Rejoice over her thou heaven, and ye saints, and ye apostles and ye prophets; for God hath judged your judgment on her." Then shall the mighty angel take up that stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea saying: "Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all." And then shall be heard the "great voice of much people in heaven saying Hallelujah! Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, unto the Lord our God; for true and righteous are His judgments, for He hath judged the great harlot which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of His servants at her hand. {1901 ATJ, ECE 874.3} "HALLELUJAH! FOR LORD GOD OMNIPOTENT REIGNETH." {1901 ATJ, ECE 874.4} MAJOR PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT! JULY 08, 2025! THIS IS HUGE! Back on March 07, 2006 (Reason he chose March 07) President George W. Bush wrote executive order #13397 that gave all the 501c3 churches the legal right to speak politically from their pulpits. Bush even publicly declared the churches to be "government agencies" no less! But, the IRS was bucking the order and the fearful pastors decided not to take a chance, and so later, President Trump signed the 501c3 into actual law granting all the pastors permanent power to do as prophecy said they will do so as to glorify the beast in Rome by creating an image to it. Now, yes, due to many pushing back, the Government claimed via the bought and paid for media that they tabled or even rescinded the law. But as I said back then, I repeat now, they NEVER rescinded that law at all. Basic reality is, they would never trash all the work they had done since 1954 to bring that Bill into law. Trashing it now would mean they would have to go back to square one and begin all the legal arguments in hundreds, if not thousands of court proceedings. Still, some scoffers actually claimed I was wrong and literally started a smear campaign of sorts. But then, I have come to expect that from time to time. And so, I did a short explanation (listed here) to show them the actual facts in all this in the hopes of blessing them with something they apparently missed. But what just happened yesterday should finally make it much easier for some to see. (I hope) Fact is, back then I also declared the image of the beast to be alive, and as I said back then, I repeat once again that if I was alive as a street preacher back in 1954 when Lyndon B. Johnson created the 501c3 Bill, I would have declared PROPHECY FULFILLED on the streets. Of course, some may misunderstand my reason for saying that, but the biblical reality is, the prophet Jeremiah and the Apostle Paul said the same thing regarding prophetic fulfillment they saw in advance. By the way, for those that know who SDA pioneer A.T Jones is, he also stated that the image of the beast was alive back in 1901. And so, methinks I';m in good company here. So; what just happened that is a MAJOR PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT for our day? Check this out… HEADLINE: "IRS moves to allow political engagement from churches, in a win for evangelical groups"; (Source) Stopping here for a moment, I have to say that this headline alone confirms the 501c3 law WAS NEVER CHANGED as the media claimed back in 2017. Fact is, they simply couldn';t even hope to do what was reported on yesterday without all that leg work of the past 71 years still being legally intact on the books. That which was clear to me back then is still just as clear to me today. The government controlled media was simply told to say the law was rescinded so as to spin down the political pushback from both sides of the isle. In so doing allowed them time to cultivate acceptance among certain political big wigs as well as pumping up confidence in all the fearful pastors from the Baptist to the Seventh Day Adventists who voraciously clamor after as many 501c3 contracts as possible. Seriously, after typing in "Seventh Day Adventist" into the Government';s 501c3 look up page, it came up with a whopping 7507 active contracts! Now do you see why the SDA church removed all prophetic mention of their 501c3 "church and state" sins from the Spirit of Prophecy books? All these apostate churches have created an image to the Roman Catholic Beast exactly as Christian prophecy said they would. That all being said, Check out a few excerpts from the article… "The IRS on Monday said that religious leaders could endorse political candidates in churches and other religious centers without losing their tax-exempt status. …The religious groups sued the IRS in August 2024 to challenge a 1954 tax provision known as the Johnson Amendment, arguing that it infringed upon their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and religion. … President Donald Trump has promised since his first term that he would overturn the amendment, claiming in 2017 that he had "gotten rid of the Johnson Amendment";Source ONE LAST THING TO PONDER Why is this all happening so quickly? Not only did we all experience a major prophetic fulfillment not too long ago when the first and second beast began standing on the same soil since the election of the American Pope; students of prophecy also knew that things like this were prophesied to escalate quite rapidly in our day. CHECK THIS OUT "We are living in the time of the end. The fast-fulfilling signs of the times declare that the coming of Christ is near at hand. The days in which we live are solemn and important. The Spirit of God is gradually but surely being withdrawn from the earth. Plagues and judgments are already falling upon the despisers of the grace of God. The calamities by land and sea, the unsettled state of society, the alarms of war, are portentous. They forecast approaching events of the greatest magnitude. The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones." -Testimonies Volume 9, page 11 Nuff said? Stephen Haskel on the Church & State - Image of the Beast "If in reading this paragraph the word "Balaam" is replaced by the " Church," in the fourth and fifth centuries, and for "Balac" is read "Constantine," or "the Roman Emperor," the exact history of the church is portrayed. The church had known God, but it became covetous; while it still professed allegiance to the Most High. The church, tempted by the rich offers of the government, parlied with its ambassadors and refused to declare the statutes of Jehovah, and remain a separate and peculiar people. The union of Church and State was formed in order to obtain the privileges and protection of the civil power. The following paragraph, read in the same way, gives the second step in the transaction, when Church and State joined hands :— ‘Disappointed in his hopes of wealth and promotion, in disfavor with the king, and conscious that he had incurred the displeasure of God, Balaam returned to his self-chosen mission. After he had reached home, the controlling power of the Spirit of God left him, and his covetousness, which had been merely, held in check, prevailed. He was willing to resort to any means to gain the reward promised by Balac.. He immediately returned to the land of Moab, and laid his plans before the king. . . The plan proposed by Balaam was to separate them (Israel, the church) from God by enticing them into idolatry.. This plan was readily accepted by the king, and Balaam himself remained to assist in carrying it into effect. Balaam witnessed the success of his diabolical scheme.'; The scheme was that Israel should be invited to a feast of the Moabites, where meats sacrificed to the heathen gods, were eaten, and that Israel should be caused to commit adultery with the inhabitants of Moab. The church between 312 and 538 A. D. joined hands with the civil power. It took of the wealth of the State, and asked for civil protection. Then it was that the spiritual sins of idolatry and fornication were introduced. Idolatry was the love of money, the world, and all false worship which took the place of the worship of Jehovah. It is fornication in the eyes of God when His people are wedded to any power save the arm of Omnipotence." (Seer of Patmos 55.2-57.1) "The message to Pergamos carries ecclesiastical (church) history to the year 538 AD, at which time the union between civil and ecclesiastical power, begun in the days of Constantine, was consummated. During the period covered by Pergamos, the Spirit of the Lord was with the church as a church; but near the end of that period, a separation began to take place. In the years following, there was formed an organization still carrying the name of Christian; and another Company, separating from that first organization, because of the practices of Balaam,—the idolatry and fornication practiced by those who were once Christians indeed. Thus improper education was the cause of the apostasy of the church, and the one sign of its fall was that, in its spiritual weakness, it sought the civil power for support.. ..It should be remembered that, as the experiences of Ephesus, Smyrna, and Pergamos, will be repeated in the last church before the second coming of Christ, so the history of Thyatira will have its counterpart in the last generation. The power of Jezebel will again be felt. (The Dark Ages) What was once done by a church in days of intellectual darkness will be repeated in days of great light. The union of the church and state will be followed by laws compelling obedience to man-made laws, instead of the laws of God. The law of God will be trampled under foot; for a church with civil power always works the works of Jezebel. Just as Elijah fled before ancient Jezebel, so those proclaiming the last warning message, of which Elijah was a type, will be persecuted by this power. This message is impressed upon the minds of those living in the latter days by the oft-repeated words, " He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches." (Seer of Patmos 61.2 & 69.1) DEAR SDAs... Did you notice NOT ONE of your pastors spoke on this prophetic event! NOT ONE! Why? It's because all of them, 100% of them have a 501c3 contract with the second beast (USA) and so they CAN'T say anything that will jeopardize their TAX FREE windfall! Pope, Trump and the IMAGE OF THE BEAST IN USA Regardless of what the many scoffers and apostate preachers say, the church & state power is among us as we speak in every denomination, including the once blessed SDA church. Soon all the 501c3, or the long-prophesied preachers of filthy lucre as the Word of God calls them, these men will come out of their prophesied trojan horse and use their new found political powers to try and stop that which we are called to do in the loud cry. And since it was declared nationwide on July 08, 2025 that the IRS is now allowing political speech from church pulpits, the image of the beast';s life is absolute, exactly as prophesied in Revelation 13:15. Most miss what I am about to say here, but for those that have eyes that see, we know there';s a reason it wasn';t the Pope or the President himself that made the announcement two weeks ago about the image of the beast being granted its political power in America. It was the IRS itself that made that announcement! Which by the way again vindicates the SDR people in that we announced about 25 years ago that the IRS was Roman Catholic in nature, structure and even theology in that when they listed nine duties for all churches to attain to so as to maintain their tax free status, as strange as this may seem, they actually called those duties, "sacerdotal duties." I actually created a page called the "Roman Catholic IRS" back then and did a Radio broadcast on it 4 years later wherein I shared all the facts on this. The IRS had to be the one to announce it as they are the ones Rome uses to control the masses just as they did before Pagan Rome became Papal Rome. Truth is, Bush gave the 501c3 pastors the ok to speak politically back in 2006 as I share below. Yet NONE of the pastors had to guts to do it as the IRS was not going to let them yet. And the Pope certainly wouldn';t make the announcement so as to keep his hands "clean" as they have done for the last 1487 years since becoming the prophesied church and state beast the American IMAGE was prophesied to emulate so as to enforce the mark that prophecy says will happen first on American soil. Back then the IRS and even some powerful church leaders were quietly going after churches that would preach certain truths that were clearly exposing Roman Catholic teachings as being Pagan in nature. They had to move them to shut up so the Pope could move forward on his prophesied task. What most didn';t realize is that actually means the only reason those pastors were being gagged back then was because the beast in Rome had real power over the IRS to keep them gagged! But now, decades later, wherein by now all the churches have fallen in line with the Pope even to the point the once blessed SDA church that was called to expose the man of sin in the 9th hour is even sending their tithe to the Pope. The Pope now knows it is safe to allow the churches to speak politically as they can now be trusted to uplift and even defend the Roman Pontiff as well as embrace Catholic dogma as if it is proper Bible doctrine. All that was threatening their long admitted political agenda against all governments, and especially the USA as per Bible prophecy, which they claim has now been done away (so they think) due to the "many false prophets" Jesus called the pastors of today that spew such lies to their flock. It';s no mistake this all happened within weeks after the American Pope came into power. For the SDA who knows about the unedited prophetic books. Do you not recall this statement made in 1909? "The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones." {9T 11.2} Even the way the IRS announcement was worded a little over two weeks ago showed how the powers that be don';t want to make it easy for anyone to see prophecy being fulfilled here. This is very telling as well as quite vindicating for those with eyes that see for it';s actually happening as our Lord declared in His prophetic Word. Fact is, for president Bush, who actually re-named all the 501c3 churches as official "government agencies" on March 07, 2006 in his "faith based initiative" rollout. Having the IRS now declare the churches can speak politically means they can also speak religiously. I mean after all, they are churches are they not? And since they are churches, wherein religious speech is the norm from the pulpit, granting them the power to speak politically means they can also mix religious and political statements from the very same pulpit, meaning again, that which was penned in Revelation 13:15 is a bold and very clear confirmation of prophecy fulfilled! THEY "SUPPOSEDLY" CHANGED THE GOP TAX BILL QUIETLY! What happened on December 02, 2017 regarding how they allowed for all 501c3 pastors the legal option to speak politically from a pulpit was a media blitz campaign for weeks and especially so during the week of December 2nd of 2017 when the massive GOP tax Bill was signed by Trump on the Sabbath. I believe Satan moved all the political leaders of the nation to pull a fast one on all students of prophecy knowing that all the media attention would move some of us to declare "prophecy fulfilled" even though as far as I'm concerned, the prophecy was already fulfilled in 1954. Not too longer after that Bill was "signed" as they said it was, they quietly changed it to remove certain aspects of the 501c3 references in it. Only this time, not a single article or video was seen in the main stream media regarding such changes. The media was all over the original structure of the passing of the Bill, but when it was craftily changed, they clammed up. Still, contrary to popular belief, the 501c3 does allow political statements from the pulpit but only in a general sense as we see in their "recent changes" of the government website here. (Notice more changes here as well as LOBBYING changes here) BTW.. See this video I made in 2017 The fact they allow "get out the vote" campaigns from the pulpit while at the same time refusing the option of endorsing any particular candidate shows something's up here. What I mean is, doing a "get out the vote" campaign via a church pulpit is in fact polticial speech just as endorsing a candidate is politicial. But for some (obvious) reason, they cannot endorse any particular candidate. But, as is the case now, once the election is done, the preachers can speak or even lobby if they please. Check it out... NOTICE THIS STATEMENT ABOUT 501(c)3 LOBBYING: "Section 501(c)(3) organizations are restricted in how much political and legislative (lobbying) activities they may conduct. For a detailed discussion, see Political and Lobbying Activities. For more information about lobbying activities by charities, see the article Lobbying Issues; for more information about political activities of charities, see the FY-2002 CPE topic Election Year Issues." -Source (NOTICE how often they bring up "church" in the Lobbying Issues) (I placed the "lobbying Issues" PDF on my server as well so that when they change it again, we have proof they did. I also placed the "Election Year ISSUES PDF" on my server as well.) This means 501(c)3 preachers can still lobby for religious laws; but "supposedly" only in a limited fashion. I say "supposedly" because we all know how certain "preachers" are allowed certain privileges due to their political activities. These political "loopholes" are there for a reason. Once in the BILL it allows for amendments and changes to be made that the media rarely if ever touches on. These loopholes allow for the powers that be to have a solid foundation already set up in the Bill so that later, when they plan to do as they first desired all along will not appear as a "major change" to the law since there is a "limited" version already legalized in the Bill. Christian prophecy WILL be and IS fulfilled! This stealthy approach towards changing laws is par for the course for a corrupt government as prophecy says the USA was destined to become. What this reminds me of is how the government claimed to pass the income tax laws demanding every citizen pay income tax when in actual documented fact Amendment #16 was never ratified meaning it's NOT a law! Yet if you refuse to pay taxes they will jail you. I called the IRS some years ago and asked them about this on the phone. The agent told me that it's true, the law was never ratified and therefore paying income tax is "voluntary." And so I said, well then I choose not to volunteer. Then he said, BUT YOU MUST volunteer. I am currently looking for some if not all the videos and articles I witnessed the month of November 2017 and especially during the week headed up to December 2nd so as to confirm the government was used of Satan to change things up in the 501(c)3 BILL behind closed doors. (Please email me if you have articles from this time period) Still, as I have stated before I repeat now. If I was a preacher back in 1954 when Lyndon Johnson drafted the 501(c)3 BILL decades before it even became an official law I would have Biblical approval to declare at that time PROPHECY FULFILLED! Proof? See this. SHOCKING UPDATE! I've known about this for years, but never got around to digging into it to show the people of God how dangerous the US government is. A brother in the faith recently emailed me the following quotes. "Each of the states of the federal union is in effect a public corporation; so, the United States is a corporation." -Charles Theodore Boone, "A Manual of the Law Applicable to CorporationsGenerally", 1887. "The word "corporations," in its largest sense, has a more extensive meaning than people generally are aware of. Any body politic (sole oraggregate), whether its power be restricted or transcendant, is in this sense"a corporation." The King, accordingly, in England is called a corporation. 10 Co. 29b. So also, by a very respectable author (Sheppard, inhis abridgement, 1 Vol. 431) is the Parliament itself. In this extensive sense,not only each State singly, but even the United States may without improprietybe termed "corporations." Chisholm v. Georgia 2 U.S. 419 (1793) "He agreed also, that no person can be obliged to be a member of a corporation without his consent: and he allowed, that the charter included only such persons as accepted and assented to it." -Rex v. Dr. Askew & al',1768. Now do you see why the second beast of Revelation (USA) demanded all the churches become INCORPORATED? NEW INFO SOME MAY HAVE MISSED REGARDING THE TIMING the government gets involved "The early part of the 20th century saw many changes in how the government deals with business and nonprofit organizations. From 1913 to 1918 the Congress passed laws regulating taxes and establishing tax-exempt status for philanthropic organizations. In the Revenue Act of 1918, tax deductions for charitable bequests were established. This was important as it gave incentive to the wealthy to donate to charity." 501(c) "The Revenue Act of 1954 established the tax codes as we know them today. Section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code stated that in order to enjoy tax-exempt status a nonprofit institution must be organized and operated purely for nonprofit reasons with none of its earnings going to any member of the organization. The law under Section 170 provided for tax-deductible contributions to a 501(c) organization." -SOURCE back to top UPDATES: (NOTICE: To prevent issues with truncated pages due to so many articles being posted, ALL future article updates will only be posted on the poGm BLOG) CLICK HERE to find out if your church is a 501c3 Government agency IRS Church probe could Ripple IRS ensnared in election-year politics Video~ Black Pastors to be coached for 2012 election!
