SECTION XXXVIII: History Of “The Assyrians”
When Jeremiah’s and Ezekiel’s preaching to the conquered and ravaged nation of Judea failed to bring about the critical mass remnant of repentance to God by the Babylonian Empire, Daniel laid out the consequences.
Judgment to come through three more Satanically controlled brutal empires on the grounds that “whomsoever ye yield yourselves a servant to obey, his servant ye are, whether unto death…”
The first message was given through Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of the image depicting a total of four world empires on earth from the purest form of power by the ruler, degrading to interior qualities of economic wealth and therefore power.
The second message was given through Daniel’s dream of four beasts / alien beings arising from the chaotic “sea” of energy surrounding the earth, the abode of spirit beings.
These are overlapping perspectives of the same world history, the human and the spirit, in combination the hybrid god-men for those who have eyes to see.

207) The Empire’s Legs Veiled From View
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.

208) The Crux Of All World Empires
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.

209) Jezebel Straddles The Empire
“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)

210) Tracking The Southern King Of The Empire
In 636 AD Islam’s era-marking Battle of Yarmouk against the Roman occupied Byzantine states of Syria, Palestine, and Lebanon.
637 AD Battle of Qadasiya first milestone in conquering Iraq over the next dozen years. Within a few years the Muslims had also conquered parts of Egypt to the South and Asia Minor and Armenia to the North.
In 638 ce, Sophronius, the Patriarch of Jerusalem, peacefully surrendered the city and the welfare of the Christian community to the Second Caliph Omar bin Al- Khattab in person. In an age when conquest was often characterised by intolerance and violence towards a conquered community, the terms of surrender of Jerusalem, which is known as the Pact of Omar, were generous and humane:
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful.
This is what the servant of God, Omar bin Al-Khattab, the Commander of the Faithful, has offered the people of Jerusalem: their security, granting them protection for their selves, their money, their churches, their children, their lowly and their innocent, and the remainder of their people. Their churches are not to be taken, nor are they to be destroyed, nor are they to be degraded or belittled, neither are their crosses or their money, and they are not to be forced to change their religion, nor is any one of them to be harmed.
We can’t miss that he is a Savior.
But is he an Antichrist?
This is not a religious question so much as it is a political question. For Antichrist, religion is a means to a political end.
There is no question that e God used the Persian Empire to provide both salvation and tribulation to Israel, depending on her relationship to him .
Just like Christianity and Judaism, Islam split into more or less righteous or corrupt political factions.
“The original schism between Islam’s two largest sects was not over religious doctrine. It was over political leadership.”

211) Tracking The Northern King Of The Empire
While contemporary society thinks in terms of the West – US and Europe vs the East – Middle and Far, in Biblical times the geopolitics were arranged north and south of the Mediterranean.
At the time of Christ’s first coming the King of the North was the Roman Caesar.
The Caesarian dynasty rose to power by its founder’s victories against tribes of Gauls from what became known as Europe. Think of this as the equivalent of the French and Indian War which groomed George Washington into becoming Father of His Country.
Gaius Julius Caesar must be understood by Latin name convention as
- first/personal name Gaius – as insignificant to his public identity as “Donald” is to “President Trump”,
- of the more significant clan / tribe / surname Caesar, a branch equivalent to Jesus as a branch of King David’s founding father Jesse of the tribe of Judah.
- of the most significant heritage via the total number of people /gens {genetics, generations} of Julus, equivalent to Jesus of the ethnic nation of Jacob / Israel.
We can work even further backwards in time on Julus’ genealogy, exactly as on Jesus’.
- Julus was the son of Aeneas, a member of the royal family of Troy, one of the few Trojans who escaped with his life after the notoriously failed Trojan War.
- Aeneas was what the Greeks called a hero, what the Bible calls a hybrid giant, a product of mixed human and fallen angel genes from his mortal royal Trojan father Anchises and the acclaimed fertility goddess Venus {Latin), Aphrodite (Greek), Inanna (Sumerian) , Ishtar (Babylonian). This is not mythology. Archeologists are unable to pin down Trojan ethnicity due to its ancient – translate early post-Flood – appearance in the region. Their best guess derived from the Hittite-Luwian script, discovered in the ancient city of Hattusa, is that, being in the same region at the same time, that these must be the Luwians Archeology validates Homer’s attribution of power due to hybridization with the gods by these people. See posts in Sections XIX – XX for details on how Aeneas is the Japhethite equivalent to his cousin “Ham”urabi.
Caesar’s claim to divine connections was demonstrated by:
- putting his image on Roman coinage – the first for a living Roman,
- having his statues erected in public temples as the High Priest / Vicar / Representative in the flesh of the national god,
- Renaming his birth month, originally Quintilis / Fifth (month in ancient Roman calendar} after his divine lineage with the fertility goddess through his ancestor Julus, equating him with the gods Janus / January, Mars / March, Aphrodite / April, Maia / May.
Moves to legally declare him in actually a sacral king in the full ancient sense of incorporating the divine spirit were only pre-empted by his assassination in 44 BC.
Julius Caesar’s will announced that his great-nephew of the family Octavius was his formally adopted heir, which is to say “only begotten son” (see post 34). Accordingly, his heir’s
- gens – key lineage from ancient ancestor – was legally changed from Octavius to Julius
- and his clan – one of the many families descended from the more ancient ancestor – name to Caesar.
His heir’s “new name” / identity was by this means made identical to that of his adoptive father. in effect extending the life, power and authority of the original father. As in “I and the father are one.” (John 10:30)

212) How The British Lost The Empire
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?

213) How The Nazis Won The War
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.

SECTION XXXIX: America In Prophecy
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.
