AMAZING PANORAMIC HISTORY - PART 5

‘The Latter Days’

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

ROME STARTS ITS 3RD & FINAL RISE TO POWER: PAPAL ROME'S DEADLY WOUND HEALED

Daniel 11:40 ―And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with

chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.‖

Now when Daniel says ‗time of the end‘, he means the end of a time prophecy. What time prophecy tells us about Papal Rome and what it will do?

Well, it is the 1260 year time prophecy. It ended in 1798.

If what we said about the ‗king of the north‘ being Papal Rome is true- we should see something happen in 1798 – somebody should ‗push at him‘. This word translated 'push' means to wage war against, like we see the Ram in chapter 8 'Pushing westward, and northward, and southward;' and this

meant he was attacking and making war against those areas

And we can know that the power that pushed— is the power the Bible calls ‗King of the South‘. Atheism, the attitude expressed by Pharaoh, king of Egypt who said: "Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know

not the LORD, neither will I let Israel go." Ex. 5:2

1798

Did it happen? Yes- France after declaring there was no God, (the word for this is Atheism) sent a General and captured the pope – taking away

all his power to rule as a king. (See Revelation 11)

The next question is— when did Papal Rome strike back against ‗atheism‘? Well we have a long

period of time that passes between the King of the South pushing— and the King of the North coming like a whirlwind. But down through the years

they have been conflicting with each other.

The first thing happened in 1798— the next part just

happened in 1989 when the Pope with the help of USA brought about the fall of the ‗Atheist‘

power, the USSR.

ROME STARTS ITS 3RD & FINAL RISE TO POWER: PAPAL ROME'S DEADLY WOUND HEALED

Just like in 508 when Clovis King of France pledged

himself to help the Papacy, and the prophecy says, "Arms shall stand on his part", so in 1984, 'arms

have chosen to stand' on the part of the rising King of the North power, the

Papacy; when secret agreements were made

between the Pope and the USA president; "with

chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter

into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.‖

'Chariots and Horsemen' means military strength and 'Ships' refers to economic sanctions. This is just exactly what was used to bring USSR

down. He entered into the 'countries', plural- the USSR was made up of several countries, not just 1, and indeed, the joint power of the Vatican

and the USA certainly did 'overflow and pass over'!

And just as when first Pagan and later Papal Rome, came to

rule the world and had to conquer 3 areas; so as the King

of the North begins his last rise to power, he has 3 areas to overthrow also. And the first

one is already conquered! What was it? It was the 'wall'

between communism and the west. It 'fell' in 1989.

What are the other 2 areas that have to be overcome

before the deadly wounded beast again rules the world?

They are the 'wall' between Church and State in the USA,

the Constitution must be overruled; and the third is the 'wall' of national sovereignty

among nations. Have you noticed the pressure to put forward religious laws lately? Have you noticed the

move to do away with separate nations and have a ONE

WORLD GOVERNMENT and a WORLD COURT?

These walls are tottering to ruin. What happens when they

fall?

A law will be passed to FORCE all to keep holy the Sunday of Rome and desecrate the Bible 7th Day Sabbath! First the law will be passed in the USA

and then it will force the world to follow and do the same thing. Does the United Sates now have power to force nations to do what she wants? Oh yes, indeed it has. What happens then? It leads to the close of human probation— this is a very important fact and one of those walls is already down and the

other two are crumbling! ARE YOU READY? ARE YOU SURE?

41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many {countries} shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and

the chief of the children of Ammon. It is important to realize what is meant here by the Glorious Land— It is NOT literal Israel as these are end-time prophecies and apply to 'spiritual' Israel; and it is NOT the same as the Glorious Holy Mountain which represents God's

Truth and His True and Faithful ones.

The Lord provided a goodly or glorious land for ancient Israel, and He provided a goodly or glorious land for modern Israel. The purpose for

both was the same. It was an asylum for His people, and a depository for His pure religion:

glorious-6643: in the sense of prominence; splendor (as conspicuous), beautiful, goodly. Strong's.

―The Lord has done more for the United States than for

any other country upon which the sun shines. Here He

provided an asylum for His people, where they could

worship Him according to the dictates of conscience. Here

Christianity has progressed in its purity. The life-giving

doctrine of the one Mediator between God and man has been freely taught. God

designed that this country should ever remain free for all people to worship Him in

accordance with the dictates of conscience. He designed that its civil institutions, in their expansive productions,

should represent the freedom of gospel privileges.‖ EGW

Maranatha 193

Glorious Country in this prophecy points us to the nation of United States. When a national Sunday law is passed in the United States, this country will symbolically join hands with Rome. It will also, symbolically begin to march, or follow, in the steps of Rome: Can two walk together,

except they be agreed? Amos 3:3.

Those Who Join Hands In this verse the word ‗countries‘ was put there by the translators as they

thought it belonged, but it is not in the original. Many 'countries' will not be overthrown at the time of the national Sunday law, just many people. The

previous verse refers to many countries as the former countries of the Soviet Union became prey for Rome, and the next verse speaks of countries as it

describes the whole world coming under the dominion of Rome. However, this verse is dealing only with the national Sunday law in the United States, and at

this point, only many will be overthrown, not many countries. Who are the people that will be overthrown?

They are those who have professed to believe in the messages of the 3 angels but they have been influenced by the world and now they give up the

faith and follow with those making void the law of God. We see many overthrown but we see some that escape!

―Servants of God, endowed with power from on high with their faces lighted up, and shining with holy consecration, went forth to proclaim the message from heaven. Souls that were scattered all through the religious bodies answered to the call, and the precious were hurried out of the doomed

churches, as Lot was hurried out of Sodom before her destruction.‖ EW 279

Ammon, Moab, and Edom are used to symbolize those who respond to the loud-cry message and stand for the truth. Moab, Ammon, and Edom were

close relatives of ancient Israel. It is interesting to note that the word escape in this verse is different than the word translated escape in the very next verse. The people who

escape this national Sunday law escape by slipperiness, and the verse says, escape out of his hand. The definition of this word brings to mind the type of slipperiness when one cannot hold onto a bar of soap in a tub

of water. It slips right out of one's hand.

42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

Here we see it telling us that Egypt is not going to escape. Egypt is used in prophecy to mean 2 things; the secular world at large and atheism in particular. So he controls the world, not just the churches. There are many who say, "Well,

I am not involved with all this religious stuff, so it won't affect me." We are assured here that he is going to control all the countries of the world, not just

religious people, but all.

43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at

his steps. Now this verse is full of symbolic meaning— Power over the treasures; this

shows the despotic power will control the financial world— economic sanctions and control on a level never before possible!

Libyans and Ethiopians likewise have symbolic meaning; Libya was very poor in Bible times and Ethiopia was very rich. So here it is saying that both the rich and the poor of the earth are going to be in step with him. They are all going

to go along with him.

44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make

away many. God‘s sealing message is the message from the east. The righteous man from the east and north is Christ. The message of Christ that comes from the east

and north is the good tidings of the "Lord our righteousness," which is, of course, the three angels' messages. (Revelation 14) It is the message by

which, first, the church, and then the world, will be tested. Moreover, it is this message that will enrage the king of the north.

Once again, the final scenes will be rapid ones. The beginning of the Latter Rain will occur sometime shortly before or right after the National Sunday Law

will be passed in the United States, but it will continue to accelerate and to grow until the close of human probation. The preceding verses illustrate the final steps of the Papacy; they have not focused specifically on what God's people are doing while the pope is taking control of the world-but verse 44

does. The tidings which come from the north and east are the glad tidings of

Christ's righteousness that are swelling into a loud cry, and giving the world its final message of warning. This message will go forth as the pope takes control

of the world. As he does so, he will begin to deal with the troublers in his midst, eventually leading to a worldwide death decree— to utterly make away

many.
