Summary: Rome lost supremacy as a New World opened and Protestant America became great. Rome's strategy to recover world dominion is seen in Scripture. It looks like it's working for them.

“Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” In the Holy Roman Empire, Europe's kings bowed to the pope, but conservative historians estimate 50-100 million were martyred for heresy, believing the Bible which says, “Call no man Father...who can forgive sins but God?” Matthew 23:9; Mark 2:7.

Martin Luther protested Rome's abuses. Gutenberg's invention for printing changed everything as Bibles became available to be read by common people. Rome's kingdom had a “deadly wound by the sword,” Rev 13:3. The “sword” is the Word of God, Heb 4:12.

Early Americans who fled the papal oppression for freedom in the New World saw the papacy as represented by the political cartoon in Rev 13:1-10. It was an amalgamation of the four kingdoms in Daniel 7 which assimilated the characteristics of each previous empire. The beast representing the papacy had a mouth like a lion, feet of a bear, looked like a leopard but had the total of 7 heads and 10 horns from those in Daniel 7.

Some early Americans believed America was represented by the 2nd beast with “two horns like a lamb,” but no crowns--a government without a king and a church without a pope—Protestant America. But it changes to bring fire from heaven (Hiroshima?) and “says to them that dwell on the earth that they should make an image [of] the beast that had the wound by a sword and did live.” Rev 13:14. The US is making an image of the papacy. New World Order will be like Old World Order with the UN as the headquarters and the Bible says it will compel false worship, Rev 13:15,16.

For two centuries, Rome's cunning has focused on bringing down what God was doing to make America great in contrast to every Catholic nation in Latin America. Though coloinzed at the same time as America, the church did nothing for their illiteracy and it kept them in poverty while high above every town in Latin American is a Catholic Church with images made of gold from the poor people, and now the pope wants to redistribute wealth! Let them sell the gold—the 2nd Commandment forbids images anyway, Exodus 20:4.

From the days of Lincoln, Catholic Chief Justice Tany said, “Negroes have no rights that the white man is bound to respect” in his Dred Scott decision, The Big Betrayal, pg 55, Chick Publications. Lincoln set the slaves free but was warned of assassination by Chiniquy whose book “50 Years in the Church of Rome” shows that even then, Jesuits were in control of many major cities and they assassinated Lincoln, chap 58.

So why not JFK? Probably every president since JFK has been threatened with the same fate if he wouldn't move US toward UN and New World Order--gun control so they could control us. DC, Mary land, the CIA, Congress, Supreme Court and White House from Reagan's time when he appointed an ambassador to the Vatican have all cooperated with Rome. Vatican means “divining serpent” in Latin.

If the reader has any doubt of Rome's role in New World Order, Revelation 17, dispels it--Rome (seven hills, verse 9) rides the beast of New World Order. She is “the great whore that sits on many waters with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication” by enforcing her dogma with laws and policies. The waters are nations, verse 15. She is “Babylon...Mother of Harlots and Abominations.” (Mother of harlot churches that no longer protest and abominations like Commmunism--Rome financed the Bolshevik Revolution, and also signed a concordat with Hitler so if he won, all the world would be Catholic. http://www.chick.com/reading/comics/0114/godfathersindex.asp Rome's strategy had Catholic Khadija mentor young Muhammad to spawn Islam, "Mother of Abominations." Rev 17:5. http://www.scribd.com/doc/6017945/The-Prophet

Why does the papacy hate the US Constitution? Because it offers religious freedom! The Syllabus of Errors by Pope Pius IX says, “No man is free to embrace and profess the religion that he believes is true, guided by the light of reason.” Do we understand that? Freedom is not free; it is as costly as the truths for which Christians die, but “the truth shall make you free,” John 8:32.

A friend asked a Catholic couple why they moved to Montana. “Because the priest told us to,” was their reply. This explains how the king of the north (Babylon) “overflows” the king of the south (America) in the “time of the end,” when it is not about geography, but spiritual Babylon and the US has many parallels to Egypt, Dan 11:40. Our southern border will never be shut if Bible prophecy is true. It's about how the Vatican gains a majority vote for their agenda.

On the surface, Rome has taken what seems to be the high road, morally, in opposing abortion. Behind the scenes Rome is like Balaam who caused Israel to sin with Midianitish women. Rome's policies favor immorality (sin and pay the priest) and homosexuality as approved by a majority of Catholic justices on the “Supreme Court,” and also Obamacare which will impoverish America and the ID card will mean bondage.

Let's enjoy our freedoms this 4th of July. It's probably the last one we might celebrate before economic collapse and martial law bring “the abomination that makes desolate.” Christ's words in Matthew 24:15 meant Rome then and now, but few see what's behind the New World Order that will be like the golden image in Daniel 3 with music and probably food, just bow to the symbol of Babylon.

In our time, the false worship will probably mean Sunday worship. Modern Babylon claims authority from God to change the biblical day of worship that memorializes the Creator in the 4th Commandment, but the 10 Commandments aren't allowed in schools, give the catholics credit for that; catholic = universal and there's a majority of Congress who just go along to get along—catholic but not Roman Catholic.

“Protestants” accept the pope rather than the Bible about the day of worship that even Luther failed to address because when asked, he said there had already been enough blood shed in Germany. But what about America? John Paul's Dies Domini calls for governments worldwide to enforce Sunday as the Lord's Day and offenders should be punished as heretics. They burned heretics at the stake in the “Auto de Fe.” Hello!

Most churches will go along with the New World Order, even though it means compulsion and God compels no one. The banking scandals, homosexuality and pedophilia suggest the papacy is as phony as the pope's fish hat to the fish god and his title, “Lord God the Pope” (Google it).

This is not hate speech, though it could soon be punishable as such. I appreciate Catholic friends who are excellent Christians, but their church does nothing to teach the Word of God. The Bible shows persecution will come from the harlot “drunken with the blood of saints,” Rev 17:6.

May God help us to better understand the light in His Word.
