Kingdom Come

King Nebuchadnezzar’s vision of the four kingdoms making up the Adversary’s continuous world empire:

• This image’s head was of fine gold, – the Babylonian
• his breast and his arms of silver, – Medo-Persian
• his belly and [developing into] his [two] thighs [north and south] of brass – Greece
• His [two] legs of iron” – (Daniel 2:31-33)
  • joins West with East,
  • is diverse from all kingdoms, 
  • devours the whole earth – controls a great amount of the world 
  • treads down and break it in pieces  – whatever it can’t incorporate, it crushes and tears apart

The presentation of two arms is obvious for the Medes and Persians. Three parts of belly and thighs is not so obvious for Greece which was split into four parts upon Alexander’s, death, but in fact did rapidly reduce “by 277, when only three major Hellenistic kingdoms stabilized in Egypt, in Asia Minor/ Syria, and in Macedonia under the Antigonids (277-168).” These three again reduced to only two, the north in Asia Minor and the south in Egypt.

So we should take the division of the fourth empire into two legs as a key prophetic identifier of an Empire that may or not function in coordination with each other.

Since the establishment of civilization at Babylon, the Western nations only became wealthy / powerful by tapping into the wealth of Mesopotamia.

Missiles fell on the capital city of Iraq. The invaders were speedy and destructive, compelling surrender, occupying much of the country. It sounds like today’s headlines, but it comes instead from ancient Rome’s 600-year struggle for world domination, one of the earliest tests of East versus West.

The Roman Empire was birthed in this bloody struggle (27 B.C.–A.D. 283) and it has never ended. Border provinces in the Near East passed back and forth like Alsace-Lorraine or the Polish Corridor would in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Europe. Rarely in the history of human conflict has a feud such as the one between the empires of Rome and Mesopotamia lasted so long and accomplished so little.

Given its location, the Middle East has always served as the crossroads of empires.

From the beginning of history it has been a battlefield of conquest and culture between the East and the West. Across this narrow bridge the religion, art, and civilisation of the East found their way into Greece; and adapted by the Greeks, the civilisation of Greece passed back again across the same bridge to conquer the East and revolutionise Asia as far as the heart of India.

For the last 5,000 years the Middle East has been the most accessible, ergo profitable, commercial connector between contrasting climates providing desirable products for nations that can’t produce these themselves.

Just one sticking point. The eastern sub-basin of the Mediterranean, known as the Levantine Sea, is surrounded on its three sides by natural barriers.

• To the south in Africa is the vast expanse of the Sahara and Libyan Deserts.
• To the north, in Asia Minor / Turkey are the high and rugged Taurus Mountains, with a mean elevation of 6,500 feet but rising at intervals to 10,000 feet or more.
• To the east is another line of mountains from the Amanus Range in northern Syria to the towering Mount Sinai (8,530 feet) in the south, with a second line of mountains paralleling the first, rising to the imposing height of Mount Hermon (9,020 feet) in the north, beyond which stretch the Syrian and Arabian Deserts to the banks of the Euphrates.

There are only two partial breaches at each extremity of the eastern mountain ranges.

“because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.” (Revelation 2:20-23)

Prior to 1633, as observed in the 1611 King James Bible, the name “Jezebel” did not include the letter or pronunciation of “J”

Like the name “Jesus“, in the Latin superscription INRI – Jesus of Nazareth, Rex/King of the Jews – her name was spelled with an “I”.

Isabella.

This most famous of Spanish queens is the virtual reincarnation of the Sidonian Jezebel, who could very well have been her ancestor as the Phoenicians settled the far shores of the Mediterranean. The blood evidence they both left behind certainly matches.

Born as she was in 1451 when the Church reigned supreme, Isabella’s parents would have deliberately named her after a Bible character. And that tells us everything about her family.

“And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write…thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication…the depths of Satan…hold fast till I come. And he that overcometh, and keepeth MY works unto the end, to him will I [not HER] give power over the nations.” (Revelation 2:18-26)

More than anything else [Hitler] dreamed of an alliance with Saxon England.

A nation, he believed, that was made up of and run by people of “excellent Germanic stock”… Hitler proclaimed that, “the English nation will have to be considered the most valuable ally in the world”. He added, “England was a natural ally for Germany and an enemy of France”, plus the latter’s communist friends in Russia, no doubt…he asserted that the English are, “our brothers, why fight our brothers?”.

Then Lloyd George came out with a quite remarkable comment. Although everyone was aware of Hitler’s antisemitism from his autobiography and in the 1930’s the Nazis’ treatment of the Jews…the ex-British premier reminded his audience that, “we must not forget the pogroms in Russia and in other European countries”. It was as if he was saying that maltreatment of the Jews happens, and has happened in communist Russia, so why attack Germany for doing the same?

Tacit British support for Germany continued under the veil of appeasement. During the Spanish Civil War…Britain wanted Franco and his fascists to take control of Spain rather than see it fall into the hands of…communists who would be controlled by Moscow…

So after looking at how friendly the British and German governments were in the 1930’s, why was there no Anglo-Nazi Pact?

If you look at history as an investigative journalist instead of an unquestioning patriot, you’ll see that America has always shared Nazi Germany’s elitist and eugenics war agenda.

In the mid 1840’s the term “Manifest Destiny” took many a man up to calling for an unmistakable drive for American expansionism…Manifest Destiny retains its roots deep in Puritan John Winthrop’s belief and challenge to the Massachusetts Bay Colony during the 17th century…“For we must consider that we shall be as a city set upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us.” (Winthrop 1630)

The charge to demonstrate Christian virtue and morality to all people can be closely linked to O’ Sullivan’s commentary on expansion as a way to achieve Winthrop’s goal. In his 1839 editorial in the Democratic Review, he states the following.

The far-reaching, the boundless future will be the era of American greatness. In its magnificent domain of space and time, the nation of many nations is destined to manifest to mankind the excellence of divine principles; to establish on earth the noblest temple ever dedicated to the worship of the Most High — the Sacred and the True….governed by God’s natural and moral law of equality, the law of brotherhood — of ‘peace and goodwill amongst men.  (O’Sullivan 1845)…

What soon followed was the mass movement of hundreds of thousands of land-hungry white settlers across Native American lands. In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed into effect the Homestead Act, which gave 160 acres west of the Mississippi, to any man who was willing to farm it…

In most of the fighting that occurred during the period of the Indian Wars, more often than not, the Indians were simply protecting their lands.

Popular Belief #1: America is not mentioned in the prophecies because the Rapture will have taken place…hundreds of millions of Christians will have vanished – causing enormous consternation among those who remain…

Unpopular Belief #2:

perhaps the United States may not be mentioned in Scripture because it might be devastated by a nuclear war…“The possibilities of it have never been greater,” says Laurie…

“I personally believe that the reason the U.S. is not mentioned in end time prophecy,” says Reagan, “is because we will suddenly cease to be a world power and will therefore play no significant role in end time events.”

“The destruction of American power is most likely to occur in two stages,” writes Reagan. “The first could be an economic catastrophe that will result from our out-of-control debt situation. Our god is the dollar and the Lord is going to destroy that god when the weight of our debt collapses our economy.” In such a scenario, writes Graff, “America will have suffered a financial collapse by the time of the last days, and would still exist, but not be a superpower. That is exactly what many political and financial analysts are saying about our current course. The United States will not be gone in the last days. We will just not be worth mentioning.”

The above speculations and personal opinions are discredited by

• ignoring the intrinsic fluidity of an empire’s geography since expansion is definitive of empire,
• ignoring that the other modern nations are not mentioned by name either,
• contradictorily attributing modern European nations’ historical roots to their current identities while not attributing America’s European historical roots to her current identity,
• treating the Atlantic Ocean as a barrier between segments of an empire when it never was for classical Rome, Spain, or England’s empires.

Instead of being omitted from Bible prophecy as many of the major eschatology scholars have taught for decades, what if America were at the very center of Bible prophecy?

The Declaration of Independence (1776) follows the covenant form and, when linked to the frame of government supplied by either the Articles of Confederation (1781) or the U.S. Constitution (1787), established a national compact.

But! The Founding Fathers did not enter into a covenant with the God of the Bible. They founded a Republic modeled on Roman, Greek and Egyptian heritage spectacular demonstrated in the Greek and Roman influences on Washington, D.C. Architecture and absorption of conquered gods and practices.

The Apo-theo-sis of Washington – literally, the deification (or god-making) of George Washington. The fresco depicts Washington as Zeus on a throne in heaven surrounded by various gods and goddesses from classical mythology. Painted on the ceiling of the dome of the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. during the Civil War by Vatican artist Constantino Brumidi.

The similarities between pagan idols and monuments to our national leaders cannot be coincidental. Do you really think Satan is just sitting out history on the sidelines? Wouldn’t we expect him to be wherever the greatest power is concentrated?

Both statues of Washington and Lincoln were deliberately modeled after Zeus, with Washington’s entitled “Enthroned Washington” and Lincoln’s placed in a monument expressly modeled after one of Zeus’ temples and defined as a temple on the plaque above Lincoln’s head. The timing and association of these images of Zeus is no accident of history.

“And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write…I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is...where Satan dwelleth. But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.” (Revelation 2:12-14)
