In this essay we will examine the truth concerning a group of individuals we will call "the multitude". This is group is defined as ANY person who calls or attempts to call on the name of the Most High God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph during the time of great tribulation. Or put simply; anyone who wants to be saved through Jesus Christ during the time of the Great Tribulation, specifically during that 42 months described in Revelation 13,(but not necessarily only then). This group could be anyone and not just people that are regular so called church goers; besides does someone know the Lord’s definition of who is a church goer and who is not? Are there a certain number of days a person is required to attend a church to conform to some definition of church goer? Or perhaps simply a verse read out of the bible one time when one was a child makes them a church attendee in the Lord’s view? It is ludicrous to presume to know who is considered a backslidden Christian or a member of the body of Christ or who is not? Certainly it is madness to presume that anybody but the Most High God knows the heart of every man, woman and child on the planet! ANYONE can get saved during this time of tribulation as is written: Multitudes Multitudes in the valley of decision and this does not single out a particular group of people.

First what we need to see is that the multitude are saints of the Most High God and not some sort of second class citizen in the Kingdom of Heaven. They are precious to him and the Lord does not desire them to be butchered, tortured, or so called punished for their supposed sins. Everybody will reap what they have sown, but the Lord God is merciful, slow to anger and not desiring any to perish NOR suffer. Romans 4:7-8 says, "Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are COVERED. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin". Certainly the Lord is not sitting around thinking of ways to punish people for their sins, Christ came to forgive sin and make reconciliation, not to be vindictive and spiteful towards past wickedness of a now repentant sinner! Heb. 9:26 says For then must he (Christ) often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

The power of the Cross of Jesus Christ COVERS all sin and this needs to be remembered. Anyone saying the multitude needs to be punished for their so called sins is a lying whore, vessel of dishonor following after their whore masters artemis, satan and apollo. Scripture has this to say about this group of fallen individuals: But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray.

What will take place for the multitude is a very special COVERING. A powerful and loving covering that very few truly understand. This will be implemented by the Power of the good work of Jesus Christ (the Bridegroom coming for his Bride, the covering cherub!). I John 3:9 says: Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. This covering of the multitude is not the same thing as a sealing of the 144,000 described in Revelation 7:3-4.

Another assumption about the multitude (which is really potentially anybody on the planet during the tribulation) is that they are being punished to bring them back to the Lord from a state of apostasy. The Lord can chastise in many different ways and it is a fabrication that during the tribulation the Lord will allow the multitude to be brutally punished as a form of chastisement to bring them back to Christ or for past sins. Not to mention a fabricated assumption at best that the group known as the multitude only consists of Christians anyway! It should be made clear that there is a difference between punishing violently a group of people and the statement the Lord chastens those whom he loves. The Lord can get the attention of people in many different ways. For example, in Revelation 8 and 9 we read of the destruction caused by the trumpet judgements. This would be a real good way to get the attention of the multitudes on the planet dwelling in the valley of decision! There is no evidence that anyone needs to be physically punished anymore than what is coming during from Tribulation judgements! Yes many do not repent of their sins during the tribulation, but that does NOT mean that multitudes of multitudes of scared individuals from all walks of life will not seek that precious covering under Jesus Christ during the time of the Great Tribulation! That covering under his protective wings. And those that truly seek HIS covering shall find it and be saved! And the fallen angels will not stop it, in fact the trumpet judgements brought against them will contribute to the redemption of many to Christ!

Here are two witnesses in scripture that speak about the multitude. First we read in Mathew 12:15 … when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all. Next in Mat. 14:14 Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick. In fact when we read about the multitude in scripture in reference to the masses who need Jesus Christ we see nothing but positive things! All over the NT Jesus teaches the multitude, he has compassion on them, he heals their sick, he takes time to speak to them. He feeds them both literally and spiritually. So where is there any sign of the multitude being punished for any of their past iniquity? There is no shred of evidence for such as it does not exist and no shred of evidence that such a policy of merciless punishment would be implemented during the Great Tribulation! The Lord wanting his people punished after they have turned to Christ is a fabrication in the minds of unstable liars.

Also concerning the multitude that Jesus taught we make one additional observation. When these multitudes of people came to him there is no indication that they were only people who were schooled in the Law and or Israelites! In fact, Jesus got himself in trouble with the religious leaders for helping people outside of the established faith!

In the New Testament when Jesus taught the multitude; scripture does not indicate that it is anything but a bunch of people from all walks of life. So herein we see that by definition in the New Testament a multitude can mean anybody at all. As we know from the experience of the saints speaking different languages; a variety of cultures were taught about Christ and believed; these were among the multitude that had no previous association with the God of Israel. So the definition of multitude is certainly not limited to only church people, it can be anybody as seen from literary evidence in the New Testament.

Let’s examine one more example of kind treatment by Jesus towards someone from among a multitude of people, this one on a more personnel level. Remember Mary Magdalene? The one whom the Lord cast out seven devils. Mary was very fond of Jesus, she treated him well and loved him very much. Do we suppose that this reaction from Mary was because Jesus condemned or punished her for her past actions of adultery seen in John 8:1-11? Of course not! Jesus healed and forgave wholly and completely with no strings attached. In Mary Magdalene we see a similitude of the attitude of Christ towards all of his people; an attitude of nothing but kindness AND a covering from our Lord and Savior towards a repentant sinner. Any individual saying that the Most High God’s salvation comes with strings attached and thus his children need some sort of post salvation punishment are lliars, whores and adulterers; ignorant self proclaimed prophets who are nothing more than brute beasts whose so called ministries are fit for destruction.

Here is an interesting observation concerning the Garden of Eden and the covering that Adam and Eve once enjoyed! Genesis 3:11 says: "Who told thee thou wast naked?" Here we see that eating of the tree was one thing, disobedience. But finding out that they were naked, (in need of a covering), was then told to them by the serpent. First he beguiled Eve and then after she ate and was disobedient, the serpent pronounced to them their lack of covering (nakedness). There was no covering required before the disobedience because they were hid in God. Disobedience removed them from their place in HIM so now they would need a covering. Notice the first thing God says to Adam is "who told you", and then he makes the statement about how they ate of the tree. In other words the Lord was more concerned that someone told them they were naked and needed a covering than anything else! That's what the most High God addresses first! Why? Apparently this covering in the garden was an extremely important thing and it appears that it is the thing that the fallen angels hated. Adam and Eve were naked, they did not care and were not concerned about it as they were covered in the Lord. A covering of similar nature will once again be re-established via the covering wings of the saints of the Most High God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph.

One verse that is touted as showing how the multitude are punished is found in Revelation 20:2-4 wherein it states: And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. This verse does indicate that certain people are beheaded during the time of the Great Tribulation. However, there is absolutely NO evidence that it is because of some supposed punishment by God or one has to lose their head to be saved, that is ridiculous! This simply assumes facts not in evidence, a classic maneuver by Satan and his hirelings.

One final fact to consider is the word "elect" in scripture. Let’s look at some verses.

Mathew 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his ELECT (eklektos) from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Mat. 24: 22 And except those days should be shortened (4th trumpet. Rev. 8), there should no flesh be saved: but for the ELECT’S sake those days shall be shortened….

Revelation 17:12-17 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. 13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. 14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen (EKLEKTOS—same Greek word for ELECT), and faithful.

In the aforementioned verses we see that Jesus is gathering his elect after the tribulation is over (Mat. 24:31…) and in Mat 24:22 it is made clear that the 4 trumpet is to HELP God’s elect, to help God’s people! The 4th trumpet is to help the Lord’s people and not some fabricated garbage about killing a third of the church. In Rev. 8:12 we see that the judgement against artemis (moon) and apollo (sun) is used to help his ELECT via shortening the days! Next we read in Rev 17:14 that the ones that are with Christ are his ELECT. What is important to see in these verses is that it is clear that the beast makes war with the Lamb AND his ELECT. So here we see that the MULTITUDE are called ELECT. Once again, the multitude are not some beaten down punished people at the hands of the Lord, they are helped and ELECT. The multitude are covered and Jesus is coming for all of them.

So to sum up; the multitude of people crying out to the one and only true Jesus Christ during the time of the Great Tribulation are covered and saved and nothing will stop it.

When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice; (For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them. Deuteronomy 4:20.

Rev. 20:10

In previous articles on this web-site we have spoken about Apollo as Lucifer. The article "The Beasts of Revelation" is recommended reading for this revealing..

In II Thessalonians 2:1-9 we read: " Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That yea be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

5 Remember yea not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

6 And now yea know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,….."

What is made clear from these previous verses is that before the Lord’s people are "gathered together unto HIM (Jesus)" there are two events that must occur. First, there would be a great falling away or "apostasia"(verse 3). Anyone would have to completely blind not to see that the Christian churches and Christian Ministries are completely out of touch with the Spirit of the Most High God. Second that the "son of perdition" would be revealed.

Modern scholars are making erroneous assumptions as to who this "son of perdition" may be. This individual man known in our common vernacular as the "Anti-Christ" is presumed to be the son of perdition.

(http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/4186/Arthur/htmlpages/kingarthur.html ).

I believe this identification of the Anti-Christ as the son of perdition is true on one layer, but what is important to recognize is that there is a SPECIFIC spirit behind the Anti-Christ and that is who we are searching for here.

The following paragraph is an excerpt from the article "The Beasts of Revelation":

"Apollo is also the beast in Revelation 17:8. Wherein is stated that the beast "was, and is not and is" and goeth into perdition. The Greek name for perdition is apoleia. In Rev. 9:11 the Greek for Apollyon is "destroyer" and the Greek word apoleia not only means perdition but also destruction as seen in Mathew 17:3. These are two interesting etymological references pointing to the identity of Apollo as the beast. Apollo seen as the eighth would be another topic; he being associated with the sun could indicate a period of seven or eight "suns". Considering that Apollo is the beast we can also make an association that the beast out of the bottomless pit that kills the two witnesses in Revelation 11:7 is also Apollo. Keep in mind that the King over the bottomless pit in Rev. 9:11 is Apollyon and he is called a Beast out of the bottomless pit in Revelation 11:7! Thus we start to see how this all makes sense and fits so well into other scriptures in seeing the beast as Apollo and not the Dragon".

Notice here that the word perdition is "apoleia", also notice the connection between Apollo as not only the beast but also the strong etymological connection with Apollo and the word "perdition"! There are other articles on this site about Apollo, showing that he is also known as Lucifer. Apollo is Lucifer, not Satan. What we know about Apollo/Lucifer is that he is associated with "the dawn" (Isaiah 14) and that he attempts to be LIKE THE MOST HIGH as seen in Isaiah 14:13-14. Notice the similar language of these verses in Isaiah and II Thess 2:9 in the context of attempting to be like the most high.

A thorough study of apollyian mythology strongly suggests that Apollo is associated with the Sun as he is often called a type of Sun god. Apollo is seen associated with the sun because it would seem he was originally created to be a similitude of THE SON of the Most High God. A Christ Like figure. Evidence suggests that Apollo and Artemis were once "married" and where originally created by the most High God to be a similitude of the Bridegroom and Bride that we see mentioned so often in scripture. To put it another way Apollo and Artemis were created to be represent a powerful likeness of Christ and his Church, until of course they rebelled. What this information tells us is that at one time before their fall the Lord’s once Holy creation, Apollo, was a Christ like Figure. One could say that Apollo was originally "created in the Image of Jesus" and Artemis was created in the image of the Holy Spirit as it appears that Apollo’s bride, Artemis, was a similitude of the Holy Ghost. Of course, post rebellion they are anything but this.

The picture we get from the evidence of Apollo as Lucifer, the light bearer, is that he was created as a type of son and in him this quality was once represented as the brightness of a sun. The article on this site: "The Seven Heads in Revelation are Still Not Seven Consecutive Leaders" is useful information for this subject of Apollo, the sun and Lucifer.

It becomes clear from many pieces of evidence that the "Son of Perdition" in II Thess. 2 is Apollo. Or put another way the specific spirit that is driving the Anti-Christ is Apollo. Apollo is the son of perdition, the man of sin to be revealed in II Thessalonians 2:3. Apollo, once a Christ like figure, now in the end is reduced to the pathetic miserable role of "Anti-Christ".

The man known as the Anti-Christ is an image of the fallen angel Apollo. Other references on this site make it clear that Apollo is also the "beast" in Revelation 13. Thus the Anti-Christ as the image of Apollo also becomes the Anti-Christ as the image of the beast! Revelation 20:10.

Despite uncertainty or maybe even because of it, cities around the world prepare for Mardi Gras.

RNU.com – (Raiders News Update) - The Associated Press reported this week that Louisiana's battered residents are putting their "months of heartache, frustration and anger on parade, in effigies, blue-tarp trailers and themes like 'Fridge Over Troubled Water,'" and giving themselves the first of many desperately needed Mardi Gras laughs.

Mardi Gras has long been an occasion for the city to laugh at tragedy and aim barbs at authorities, the AP said, "and given all the pain New Orleans has suffered in the past year the irreverence should reach new heights this season."

This year there is a particular edge in the Big Easy as clubs that historically staged Mardi Gras parades "are targeting Hurricane Katrina and the politicians they blame for the chaotic response to the catastrophe."

Does this mean, perverts beware!? Are the topless muses and nude dancers giving way to more political caricatures as masked revelers stumble home following dusk-to-dawn parties?

The Brazilian government even plans to distribute 25 million free condoms to promote sex during the country's Carnival, but the city's seamy underbelly may provide darker moments that some people are prepared for. Angry Brazilian police officers demanding higher pay are warning tourists not to rely on the crime-ridden city's cops to save them.

In Australia, the rainbow remains bright as the 2006 Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras Party races toward Saturday, March 4, where at the Moore Park Entertainment Precinct (formerly Fox Studios) the world's "biggest queer gathering" is already selling out some of the planned events. Past Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras have seen attendance as high as 700,000 participants.

Some may be wondering, with so much uncertainty in the world today, why do we continue the need to cast off inhibition and to party? Is the deep compulsion purely psychological, or is another, unseen force pulling at us, compelling us to don 'the mask'?

PUTTING THE MASK IN MASQUERADE

Errol Laborde investigated the masquerade tradition in his book, Mardi Gras! (Picayune Press). He wrote "Roman aristocracy of the time preferred debauchery and licentiousness to legality and morality. Men donned women's clothing, the better to abandon themselves to orgy; thus the masquerade tradition began."

Professor Fred Koening of Tulane University supported conclusions of Laborde, saying, "Masks are a way of being anonymous, and if you wear a mask, you take on a different persona. You can be a little drunker, a little wilder, a little more primitive. Furthermore, at Carnival people will be more tolerant of you. Normal rules are gone. Traditional routines are put on hold."

In ancient times, the Greek god Dionysus was depicted as the inventor of such revelry. Followers of Dionysus believed that he was the presence that is otherwise defined as the craving within man that longs to "let itself go" and to "give itself over" to base desires. What Christians might resist as the lustful wants of the carnal man, the followers of Dionysus embraced as the incarnate power that would, in the next life, liberate the souls of mankind from the constraints of this present world and from the customs which sought to define respectability through a person’s obedience to moral law. Until then, worshippers of Dionysus attempted to bring themselves into union with the god through a ritual casting off of the bonds of sexual denial and primal constraint by seeking to attain a higher state of ecstasy.

The uninhibited rituals of ecstasy (Greek for "outside the body") employed wine, abandon, and perversion to bring the followers of Dionysus into a supernatural condition which enabled them to escape the temporary limitations of the body and mind and to achieve a state of enthousiasmos -- outside the body and "inside the god."

In this sense Dionysus represented a dichotomy within the Greek religion, as the primary maxim of the Greek culture was one of moderation, or, "nothing too extreme." But Dionysus embodied the absolute extreme in that he sought to inflame the forbidden passions of human desire.

As college students returning from Carnival will understand, this gave Dionysus a stronger allure among Greeks who otherwise tried in so many ways to suppress and control the secret lusts of the human heart. Dionysus resisted every such effort and, according to myth, visited a terrible madness on those who tried to deny him free expression. Interestingly, the Dionystic idea of mental disease resulting from suppression of secret inner desires, especially aberrant sexual desires, was later reflected in the teachings of Sigmund Freud. Thus Freudianism might be called the grandchild of the cult of Dionysus.

Conversely, the person who gave himself over to the will of Dionysus was promised unlimited psychological and physical delights.

THE POWER OF CARNIVAL!

Such mythical systems of mental punishments and physical rewards based on resistance and/or submission to Dionysus, were both symbolically and literally illustrated in the cult rituals of the Bacchae, as the Bacchae women (married and unmarried Greek women had the "right" to participate in the mysteries of Dionysus) migrated in frenzied hillside groups, dressed transvestite in fawn skins and accompanied by mask-wearing, screaming, music, dancing, and licentious behavior.

When, for instance, a baby animal was too young and lacking in instinct to sense the danger and run away from the revelers, it was picked up and suckled by bare-breasted women who participated in the hillside rituals. Yet when older animals sought to escape the marauding Bacchae, they were considered "resistant" to the will of Dionysus and were torn apart and eaten alive as a part of the fevered ritual.

Human participants were sometimes subjected to the same orgiastic cruelty, as the rule of the cult was "anything goes," including lesbianism, bestiality, etc. Later versions of the ritual (Bacchanalia) expanded to include pedophilia and male revelers, and perversions of sexual behavior were often worse between men than they were between men and women.

THE DEVIL AND CARNIVAL

The Hebrew people considered Hades (the Greek god of the underworld) to be equal with Hell and/or the Devil, and many ancient writers likewise saw no difference between Hades (in this sense the Devil) and Dionysus. Euripedes echoed this sentiment in the Hecuba, and referred to the followers of Dionysus as the "Bacchants of Hades."

In Syracuse, Dionysus was known as Dionysus Morychos ("the dark one") a fiendish creature; roughly equivalent to the biblical Satan, who wore goatskins and dwelt in the regions of the underworld.

In the scholarly book, Dionysus Myth And Cult, Walter F. Otto connected Dionysus with the prince of the underworld. He wrote: "The similarity and relationship which Dionysus has with the prince of the underworld (and this is revealed by a large number of comparisons) is not only confirmed by an authority of the first rank, but he says the two deities are actually the same. Heraclitus says, 'Hades and Dionysus, for whom they go mad and rage, are one and the same.'"

The Hebrews considered the magic (witchcraft) of the Bacchae (the female followers of Dionysus) to be the best evidence of Dionysus' Satanic connection, and, while most of the details are no longer available due to the fact Dionysus was a mystery god and his rituals were revealed to the initiated only, the Hebrew prophet Ezekiel described the "magic bands" (kesatot) of the Bacchae, which, as in the omophagia, were used to capture (magically imprison) the souls of men.

We read, "Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold I am against your magic bands [kesatot] by which you hunt lives [souls] there as birds, and I will tear them off your arms; and I will let them go, even those lives [souls] whom you hunt as birds" (Ez. 13:20 NAS).

In Acts 17:34 we read of a soul liberated from the control of Dionysus: "Howbeit certain men clave unto [Paul], and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite..." To carry the name of Dionysus usually meant: 1) the parents were devotees of Dionysus and thus the child was "predestined" to be a follower of the god; or 2) the individual was under the spell of the kesatot.

The kesatot was a magic arm band used in connection with a container called the kiste. Wherever the kiste is inscribed on sarcophagi and on Bacchic scenes, it is depicted as a sacred vessel (a soul prison?) with a snake peering through an open lid. How the magic worked and in what way a soul was imprisoned is still a mystery. Pan, the half-man/half-goat god (later relegated to devildom) is sometimes pictured as kicking the lid open and letting the snake (soul?) out. Such loose snakes were then depicted as being enslaved around the limbs, and bound in the hair, of the Bacchae women.

The demon Pan, the serpents, the imprisoned souls, and the magic Kesatot and Kiste, were evidently perceived by the prophet Ezekiel as an effort of the Bacchae to mystically imprison the souls of men through magic and sensuality. Yet Pan was also beloved of Dionysus for his pandemonium ("all the devils") which struck panic and/or pleasure in the hearts of men and beasts. Does the same spirit reside over New Orleans's Mardi Gras, Rio's Carnival, and Sydney's Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras?

Warning! A tenacious effort on the part of modern Bacchae to embrace the will of evil supernaturalism may be at work!

On the other hand, modern governments may be providing people with reasons to cast of inhibitions and to party like there's no tomorrow.

The highlights of this vulgar article uncover a concept of the perversion of the fallen angels. Specifically we are looking at the abominable stupidity of that whore Artemis, and also Apollo and Satan. This unholy trinity is spoken of in other articles on this site.

In this article we read the following: "The uninhibited rituals of ecstasy (Greek for "outside the body") employed wine, abandon, and perversion to bring the followers of Dionysus into a supernatural condition which enabled them to escape the temporary limitations of the body and mind and to achieve a state of enthousiasmos -- outside the body and inside the god.". This statement makes it clear what the intended outcome is of this form of perversion; the goal here is to be "inside the god". Herein is found of one the biggest perversions of the fallen angels.

What is occurring in the previous article is a description of WHY the fallen angels do what they do. WHY we see so much perversion and unhealthy relationships in society today. It is the result of what appears to be the one main goal of the fallen angels: to "feed" off the sexual perversion of the world by making the perversion "one" with them. Like a parasite sucking blood of it’s host.

Scripture says the following about the difference between an unhealthy relationship (read whoredoms) and the HEALTHY relationship given by the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Joseph: I Corinthians 6:15-17 "Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit".

We see in this verse that when an individual is joined to a harlot (like artemis) that they become one flesh, similar to the "flesh covenant" between husband and wife. So the individual becomes one in body and also it would appear in spirit with the whore. BUT He that is joined unto the LORD IS ONE SPIRIT not one flesh. This joining with the Lord is a very profound and intimate joining. This is made clear in a number of verses in the Old Testament wherein it is stated that the Lord is married unto his people and thus why the Lord says that Israel commits whoredomes when she sins.

The Lord makes it CLEAR that he likens the relationship between him and his people as that of marriage of a man and women and the intimacy that goes along with such a union. We see this once again with Christ as the Bridegroom spoken of so many times in scripture. Thus making it clear that those truly in Christ Jesus experience a "oneness" with the Lord as a profound spiritual experience. The Lord considers your relationship with him to be a type of spiritually married intimacy. Hence why the emphasis in scripture on a personnel relationship with Jesus Christ! The Lord of heaven and earth is NOT an impersonal "energy force" in the skies. The Lord desires a truly intimate relationship with his people and that is made so clear from scripture!

With this understanding we can see what the fallen angels are attempting in the aforementioned article. What we see here is a description of the so-called god of wine

Dionysus or Bacchus. This individual is actually Apollo also known as Lucifer (the article says that Satan is Lucifer, but that is not correct). Apparently before their pathetic fall from glory the angel Apollo was somehow associated with wine. But in their hideous fallen state the intimacy that the Lord once intended has been perverted and twisted to an unrecognizable hell of complete insane filth. In these "sex" rituals that the men and women of Greece partook in it is clear that they are trying to make themselves "one" with the fallen angel Apollo. The partakers of this insanity may have no idea what they are really doing, but that will prove to be NO excuse on judgement day.

In Isaiah 14:14 we see an attempt by Apollo (Lucifer) to be "like the most high". As shown before; the most high God has a level of intimacy with his people that is similar to a husband wife relationship. And in the article we see here that the fallen angels attempt to mimic this level of intimacy in a completely twisted hellish fashion. This whole act of reckless abandonment to the depths of hell is a pathetic display of unimaginable arrogant audacity of unthinkable and disgusting proportions.

Revelation 20:10

On this web-site we have put up the audio for a previous work concerning what we call the "Unholy Trinity" and they are recommended listening for this essay. Also, please see the essay: "Third and Fifth Trumpets" for a background on the topic of the fallen angels. On those radio programs myself and Brooke Stant made it clear that the unholy trinity is made up of Satan, Apollo and Artemus. It is relevant because the "beast" described in various verses in Revelation IS actually Apollo, also known as Lucifer. Apollo is Lucifer. Satan is not Lucifer as most commentaries seem to indicate. Apollo is the beast that is being described in Revelation 13:1-2. Apollo is actually the beast not Satan.

Upon close scrutiny it would seem the Dragon (Satan) is never associated as being the "beast". In Revelation 12:3 we see the dragon as having Seven Heads and Ten Horns and it is assumed to be the same as the Beast with Seven Heads and Ten Horns in Rev. 13:1-2. But I do not think this is the case. In Rev 12:3 the Dragon has Seven Heads and Ten horns with seven crowns upon the heads. In Rev. 13:1 we see a beast that has Seven Heads and ten horns, but no indication of having Crowns on the heads. Instead this beast has Crowns that are upon the Horns and the Heads now have the "name of Blasphemy"!

From Revelation 12:9 we know for sure that the Dragon IS Satan. So there is a bit of a mystery going on with the subtle yet significant difference between Heads and Horns and Dragon and Beast as compared in Revelation 12:3 and 13:1. Of further note is that in Rev. 17:12 we see that the ten horns have "received no kingdom as yet". This would give the impression that these ten horns/kings have NO crowns. Is this a reference to the Dragon in Rev. 12:3? This is very complicated and takes time to unravel. Nonetheless if one looks closely, the Beast is never positively associated as being the Dragon. Another piece of evidence to underscore this fact is seen in Rev. 13:2 wherein the dragon is specifically seen as giving "HIS power, and his seat, and great authority" TO the seven head ten horned beast! A clear indication here that the Dragon and the beast are separate entities. It would appear that BOTH have some sort of "Seven Head Ten Horn" characteristic. So in Revelation 13:1-2 we see what appears to be some sort of power transfer going on from Dragon to Beast. This could be what Daniel refers to as "a diverse fourth kingdom" in chapter 7 of that book.

Apollo is also the beast in Revelation 17:8. Wherein is stated that the beast "was, and is not and is" and goeth into perdition. The Greek name for perdition is apoleia. In Rev. 9:11 the Greek for Apollyon is "destroyer" and the Greek word apoleia not only means perdition but also destruction as seen in Mathew 17:3. These are two interesting etymological references pointing to the identity of Apollo as the beast. Apollo seen as the eighth would be another topic; he being associated with the sun could indicate a period of seven or eight "suns". Considering that Apollo is the beast we can also make an association that the beast out of the bottomless pit that kills the two witnesses in Revelation 11:7 is also Apollo. Keep in mind that the King over the bottomless pit in Rev. 9:11 is Apollyon and he is called a Beast out of the bottomless pit in Revelation 11:7! Thus we start to see how this all makes sense and fits so well into other scriptures in seeing the beast as Apollo and not the Dragon.

Brooke Stant and I reference Artemis as being the "brother" of Apollo. Artemis IS the WHORE that rides the beast in Rev. 17:7! What I am describing here is that Artemis rides Apollo. So there is some sort of dysfunctional relationship between Apollo and Artemis to say the least! No wonder, as they are all fallen angels. This is most certainly not a Godly brotherly love! Consider also the following: The Ten Horned Apollo Beast carries the whore. Yet later we see in Revelation 17:16 that the 10 Kings (horns), which we now know are a construct of the Apollo Beast, HATE the whore and burn her with Fire. So in the end even these fallen angels turn on each other.

Artemis, Apollo, and Satan make up the fallen angel Unholy Trinity. It would appear they seem to be the "top" three of that dung heap as far as the fallen angel hierarchy goes. They are the top leaders of 144,000 fallen angels by this author’s reckoning. 144,000 fallen angels WHO HAVE BEEN REPLACED by a chosen group of 144,000 saints of the Most High God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. See various passages in Revelation for reference to the 144,000 saints of the most high God. THAT is where you should get your information on the 144,000 saints.

With this understanding of the Unholy Trinity and the identity of the beast we may now come to some groundbreaking conclusions. First, we have further evidence for this Unholy Trinity in Revelation 16:13 wherein it is stated: "And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet". This is very telling in light of our new understanding. Here we have the description of the Unholy Trinity! The Dragon, the beast and the False Prophet. The Dragon of course being Satan, the beast being Apollo and by simple process of elimination the False prophet being Artemis.

We are not saying that THE False Prophet that rises up will be the actuall entity Artemis. It is a bit unclear how this will play out. If there is a man (and I think there will be) who is the False Prophet then he would simply be filled totally with the spirit of Artemis. The same for the Anti-Christ, but this spirit here would be Apollo. I believe that eventually the Anti-Christ and False Prophet will be individual men, but what is MOST important for understanding is actually who is behind the whole thing. This really makes the rest of the puzzle fall into place. By this aforementioned process of elimination, in Rev. 16 we now see that Artemus is the spirit behind false prophets. We can see that this FEMALE TYPE Entity is the spirit behind all false churches! Hence, for example, MARY in the Catholic Church IS ARTEMIS. The spirit behind the mainstream Christian Churches is Artemis! It is this "female" entity that appears to be the driving spirit behind false doctrine; false doctrine such as an erroneous belief in the identity of the seven heads in Rev. 13:1. Satan and Artemis working closely together, to bring about the desired deception in the churches. The fallen angel Artemis is NOT necessarily a "woman". In other words the goddess deity is probably a "male" angel, but of course their fall has brought about all sorts of disgusting perversion. Artemis may simply now be some sort of ultimate "drag queen" as in the "queen of heaven" spoken of in Jeremiah chapters 7 and 44. Or Artemis could be in the submissive role to Satan and Apollo hence seen as a "woman/sister" to Apollo.

Artemis as THE goddess of the world is shown with absolute certainty in Acts 19:24-35 where Diana of Ephesus is ARTEMIS! The strong’s word here is number 735 and it is Artemis. The apostle is actually talking about this entity. Notice in these passages it is stated that the whole world whorships her. So "she" as a goddess type false prophet was working on a global scale back then!

In Revelation 13:11 we see another beast that comes up out of the earth having two horns. This would then be Artemis. Most see these verses as a description of the False Prophet. In the Old Testament there is an association with the goddess Ashteroth having two horns. This can be found in Genesis 14:5 where we read: "And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim". Here the phrase "Ashteroth Karnaim" is strong’s number 6255 and means Ashteroth of the double horns. In addition, in the audio we show that Ashteroth is also Artemis. So the goddess Artemis is seen as having two horns. Notice this beast in Revelation 13:11 has all the power of the first beast and is seen as working with the first beast. Again this is the Artemis, Apollo relationship.

As further evidence we go back to Acts 19 where we read that Artemis is worshipped by the whole world. Note here that the entire world did not simply call her Diana, they all have different names for the SAME goddess. Mary would be another common one by today’s vernacular. Artemis is also associated with the Crescent moon. Here we see the association of the goddess and false prophets in major religions of the world represented by the Crescent moon in one form or another. So we can conclude that when we read about these beasts in Revelation 13 that we are looking at Apollo and a second beast Artemis. The second beast works closely with the first beast. Obviously there are several other references to beasts in Revelation that are not associated with rebellious entities such as the beasts with the 24 elders and the beasts seen in Revelation 6.

In part one of this series, "The Seven Heads in Revelation are not Seven Consecutive Leaders", I gave the interpretation of the "beast with seven heads and ten horns". It is a simple parable, simple because the clear interpretation of this beast described in Revelation 13:1 is given clearly in Revelation 17. The seven heads are not seven consecutive leaders/men and now to our benefit we know this.

The most logical offer to the seven heads in Rev. 13 has been the "Seventh Head" or seventh leader of the United Nations; that being Kofi Annan as Secretaries General. This is fallacious and nothing more than a "type and shadow" of something MUCH bigger. It is a poor type and shadow as a man is NOT considered a head in the context of Revelation 13:1 as explained in the Part I of this series!

I have speculated that the "seven mountains" on which the woman sits described in Revelation 17:9 are the seven continents. Notice verse 17 says "here is the mind which hath wisdom", thus indicating that this is not an "easy" find and the understanding of this will not be something simple that any fool could conjure up. So this is the first big clue that the everyday "normal" explanation of these mountains is most likely the wrong answer. This is one reason that I turned to the continents as an explanation.

Revelation 12:3 speaks of a dragon with seven heads and ten horns. What are these 7 heads? Well if we take the explanation in Rev. 17:9, and there is no reason we should not, we would conclude that the heads are mountains on which the woman sits. Easy enough, but what are the mountains? Again Rev. 17:9 gives a clear caveat that the interpretation of this is not an easy thing to get as it is stated clearly "here is the mind which hath wisdom". So we need to think about this as a type of mystery of which the conclusion is off the beaten path.

In Ezekiel 28:14, 16 we read the following: "Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire…By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire". It is generally recognized today that these verses are talking about satan as the covering cherub and the planets as the "stones of fire". I believe that this interpretation is correct.

Also in Luke 4: 5-6 we read: "And the devil, taking him (Jesus) up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it". Notice here that satan takes Jesus to an high Mountain wherein Satan shows Jesus all his Kingdoms in a moment of time. Here satan is tempting Jesus to give him all his kingdoms. Noteworthy is the fact that satan shows him the kingdoms in a "point" (moment) of time. I believe that this is a very profound statement about "time" and how it is really viewed. I believe that satan was showing his kingdom to Jesus at a moment in time when Satan’s kingdom was at it’s fullest glory. However in the present context of Luke the point I would like to make is that Jesus was taken up to an exceedingly high mountain and I am not the first person to say that this "mountain" was a planet. In this case I believe that it was very likely that satan took Jesus to view the planets BEFORE they were destroyed and desolate as we see them presently—satan took Jesus a point in time before the planets were destroyed. Wherein Satan showed Jesus all the planets (his kingdom) when they were still glorious, most likely a time before the flood of Noah. There are a few references in scripture to the Planet Rahab and how the Lord destroyed that one, so this is certainly no stretch to see that some Planets have been turned into waste (psalm 89:10).

Seeing mountains as planets is the main point here. This of course gives us a very different interpretation of Revelation 17:9 and the seven mountains. In Rev. 12:3 we see that the Dragon has Seven Heads, we also see this in Rev.13 and 17. These seven heads are seven Mountains or seven Planets. The seven Mountains are seven planets! An interpretation that makes much sense when we look at how often the Planets are worshipped in the Old Testament and by the whole word. We know that Planets are always associated with the "gods". Planet worship, such as Mars is of course associated with Satan worship. So why would it be unusual to state that Satan’s kingdom would include the Planets? II Kings 23:5 ….burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven. When history of fallen angel worship is looked at it becomes clear that Planets are always part of this. It is logical that Satan’s Kingdom would contain planets or "stones of fire". Another example would be Acts 19:19:35 and the planet Jupiter. So it is not a stretch that the mountains of his Kingdom are planets.

So the next question of course is which Planets are the seven heads? This may be a subjective answer, but here is my list: Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Venus, the sun and the Moon. It is important to note that I am not saying that these were the original seven "heads" as universal catastrophe can change things around a bit. For example, Venus is known as "the new comer" and seems to be a rather recent addition to the solar system. So who knows what has occurred in the past few millennia with the seven heads of satan. It is important to note here that planets and suns can be considered two different things and it gets a bit confusing if heads are planets or are they Suns? At present Saturn is considered a planet and yet it may becomes a sun. In Judges 23 we see that the planets and sun and moon are seen as being separate. For purposes of simplicity I am making a generalized statement here about the planets and the heads as it gets a bit subjective. The important thing is to see the seven heads "outside the box" and the grandiose scope of the seven heads. Since Saturn was a Sun and now called a planet and then could be a sun again is it the eighth? In other words it is very plausible here that Saturn is one of the Seven Heads and yet NOW becomes a sun again making it a type of EIGHTH head as seen in Revelation 17:11. If this were the case I would consider it to be a type or shadow as Rev. 17:11 seems to indicate an individual here, perhaps a final manifestation of Apollo?

From this conclusion we get another very interesting scenario. At one time it is believed that the planet Saturn was a sun not unlike out present sun. Saturn is associated with Satan. In Revelation 13:3 we see that one of the seven heads is wounded to death and the deadly wound is healed. Since the heads are actually planets we have to look for a deadly wound in THIS context. Considering the recent project known as The Lucifer Project I believe we have the makings of the "healing" of the Deadly wound!

The Lucifer Project is a plan to "re-ignite" Saturn and restore it to it’s former glory as a SUN. Saturn/Satan has suffered a deadly wound and he has published his plan to the world as to how he will heal the wound! An insane plan to be sure, but nonetheless we are dealing with insane entities so it is expected. Satan would be the one to voice such a plan as this to be sure. Are certain judgements in Revelation directly due to the re-birth of this dead sun? Perhaps…. Reading the aforementioned web-site contains speculation as to what sort of desolation this insanity could cause to Planet Earth and it certainly reminds one of judgements seen in Revelation!

In Revelation 8 and 9 there is a description of the falling of the "Unholy Trinity", (Satan, Artemis, and Apollo).

In Rev. 8:11 there is a description of the Third Trumpet and Wormwood. Here we notice that the first time Wormwood is introduced the word uses a capital "W" to point out that it is a proper name. The Latin name for wormwood is "Artemisia". Artemis. Notice that the second time the word is used in the same verse it is not capitalized as it is now being used as an adjective. So, first it is a proper name and then it is an adjective - first describing an individual and then describing the effects of the fallen star.

A brief background once again on who this fallen angel Artemis is follows. "She/it" is also the whore of Babylon in Revelation 17:5.

"It" goes under the name Diana and can be found in Acts 19: 24-35 along with Jupiter (Satan). There are many other names for this same fallen angel. Almost all the goddess names throughout time can be traced back to this fallen angel. Artemis is also associated with Sagittarius and the month of December.

This fallen angel also seems to think that it is a helper of young girls and women in childbirth. Yet she herself is a destitute whore who of course has never had any legitimate children. The classical pictures of Diana/Artemis show her as this hideous looking "huntress" with a bow in her hand as she also seems to think that she is some sort of "archer". In one memorable picture Artemis is seen with grotesque "tumor" like growths all over it’s chest. Long thought to be "multiple breasts" demonstrating her "nurturing" maternal aspects, recent anthropological opinion has determined that these growths are actually bull testes - reinforcing the unnatural relationship between Artemis and Apollo (for whom the cow is sacred). Her disgusting image can be found in the Vatican Museum and at the Iduho Museum of the Natural Arts among other places. Artemis is supposed to be a "hunter" type. Records actually indicate that she was a terrible hunter. She made up for her inaptitude of character by being hateful and vile to all those she perceived as her enemy. In other words, your typical fallen angel type.

In Revelation 9:11, we are told of a king that is the angel of the bottomless pit. The name of the fallen angel given is Apollyon, or Apollo. In Revelation 8:11, the name of the star that falls is Artemis. In Revelation 9:1, when the 5th trumpet sounds, another star falls from heaven and is given the key to the bottomless pit. By process of elimination this 3rd fallen angel must be Satan.

Satan lets Apollo out of the pit according to Revelation 9:2. In this unholy trinity Satan apparently -oddly enough- considers the high command to be the female entity Artemis, as Satan certainly exhibits female traits in his character.

Finally as stated, Rev. 9:ll describes Apollo very clearly. Mythology also has Apollo as the illegitimate "brother" of Artemis. This character seems to be an emasculated "drag queen" type. So in conclusion, this unholy alliance which is reprobate to the core is seen falling for the final time in Revelation chapters 8 and 9.

Psalm 115

Last year at about this time we saw the Sumatra Tsunami. December 25th here in America. As I have stated before I am convinced that this Tsunami was an "Artemus" Flood/Tsunami. Artemis is Sumatra spelled backwards and Artemis claims to be the goddess of various things. It is also known as Diana. I believe that the whole flood in Sumatra was a complex event having to do with the fallen angels, specifically the one known as artemus. The main "image" associated with artemis is the Crescent Moon. This moon image is seen all over the place. One prominent place is the "Crescent City" also known as New Orleans. I find IT NO ACCIDENT that in the past year we have seen destruction in two places that are both associated with the Crescent Moon; those being Sumatra and New Orleans.

At the end of 2004 we saw a major Tsunami event in Sumatra that I believe is directly tied to something complex that is going on with the fallen angels—the angels that rebelled against the Most High God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. After that in 2005 we saw a major hurricane in New Orleans that I am convinced is related somehow to the Sumatra/Artemus Tsunami of 2004. In the midst of this the reader may notice that the two largest earthquakes related to the Sumatra Tsunami were at Christmas time 2004 AND Easter of 2005. Obviously a pattern of these events occurring on these pagan holy days in no coincidence.

It would be wise to watch this time of year very carefully for another "judgement". This is a prime season to be vigilant and watch to see if people really begin to reap what they have sown….

America has truly become a type of Egypt wherein plagues and death of the first born are fitting judgements for her. Keeping watch during the Christmas and Hanukkah days coming up very soon is certainly not a bad idea….

The following is a "public retraction" and announcement.

1. At one point in time I, Michael Taube, had an erroneous understanding about what is known as the Lord’s Calendar. I had thought that the group of individuals known as "The Multitude" must keep the Sabbath days that are on the Lord’s Calendar. I had thought that this group of individuals would have to keep this day during what has been labeled "the tribulation". This is not true. Anyone who wishes to come to Christ may do so freely as it is a free gift of salvation and no requirement of keeping a specific day is needed to come to the cross of the true Jesus Christ. Salvation through the real Christ has always been a free gift and no-one need keep a "law" and that includes keeping a "law" of the Sabbath day to be saved. Grace is freely given, all the time - end of story. Anyone saying that you need to keep a day at any time is not following the true Jesus. It is the spirit of anti-Christ to say that any individual needs to keep a specific day to be saved. Jesus is our rest and Sabbath as sated in Hebrews 4:9-10. There is no reason to believe that anyone "suddenly" needs to keep a specific day after about 2,000 years just because of times of tribulation etc. Keeping a day to "get saved" at any time is the bondage of the Law and that is not what is taught by the true Jesus Christ who gave us grace not bondange. Zechariah 4:7

2. I, Michael Taube, have not authorized any additional text or commentary to what is known as "The Lord’s Calendar". If you see the calendar with an "Introduction" let it be know that I have not authorized that either, as I now retract any additions made in the past. Most of the text concerning the calendars is false due to the past incorrect mindset as I stated in the previous paragraph; supposedly needing to keep a specific day "to get saved" —which is totally wrong! If the calendars have any additions other than the straight forward dates then know that I did not authorize the change or addition. That includes any so-called "prayers" that go with the Calendar. Nothing is authorized by me other than a simple calendar without text of any sort. Anything other than a simple calendar of dates has not been authorized and is not of the God of the true Israel. In fact, other than for prophetic interest in current events and events to take place in the future there may be no other reason to be using the calendar at this time. They may even prove to have little use even in prophecy. In the process of time we shall know the full scope of them. At any rate the calendars are most certainly not for keeping track of a certain days so an individual can get saved. That is a fraud. There are plenty of verses about grace and no verses that specifically state that one needs to start keeping the Sabbath days to get saved.

   Hebrews 4:16 "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need".

3. Finally, I have a much different view of what is known as the 144,000 in the book of Revelation than I did when I wrote and said certain things about this group of people in the past. Everything that I, Michael Taube, said about the 144,000 in the past needs to be looked at in a different light and much of what I said in the past about this group was erroneous. With my new understanding of this group I can see that almost everything that is being stated about the 144,000 is wrong. Let the reader discern for themselves who the 144,000 really are…

"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" Revelation 13:1

There is a mystery in the scriptures concerning the "beast with seven heads and ten horns" spoken of in Revelation chapter 13. When studied correctly via the spirit of the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob it becomes very clear that Revelation 13 is actually a parable; a parable similar to those given by Jesus Christ in the New Testament. The reader will observe that on a few occasions Jesus answers the mystery of a parable. We see this scenario for example in the parable of the sower in Mathew 13 wherein Jesus gives the meaning of the parable.

What all do not see is that Revelation 13 begins as a parable (perhaps the entire chapter is a type of parable, but that is another story). What makes this so profound is that the answer to this parable is given in Revelation 17! In Revelation 17 the answer is given as to the identity of the seven heads. It is a very straight forward scripture.

Did you catch that? The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman (the whore, Artemis) sits! Let us look closer to show logically what this is saying and that this is the proper interpretation of the matter.

What we are seeing here is an explanation of the seven heads and the ten horns. A few verses later in chapter 17 a clear explanation is also given as to the identity of the 10 horns. This is important to take note of as it makes it very clear that these verses are talking about the first portion of Rev. 13. In addition, Rev. 17:7 underscores this fact. "...I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns." This establishes beyond any reasonable doubt that Rev. 17 is interpreting what is being stated in Rev.13. Again Rev. 17 is answering the parable given in the first portion of Rev. 13.

In the answer to this parabola we see that the ten horns are ten kings, but the seven heads are seven mountains on which the "woman" sits. Seven mountains are not seven consecutive leaders of a governmental body. There are several interpretations given of the seven mountains such as, they are seven hills of Rome, or seven Mountains of Israel. This author's interpretation of the seven mountains has been that they are the seven continents. I now believe that it is much bigger than even this global point of view. Let him who has wisdom discern for themselves… But they are not seven consecutive leaders, or seven men. To underscore this point let us look at a few facts:

The woman/whore "sits" upon these mountains which are the seven heads from Rev. 13 and described in Rev. 17. So the seven heads are clearly not individual men as Rev 17:9 says that the whore sits on the seven heads which are mountains. The mountains appear to be locations where the woman presides over all the people, whose names are not written in the lambs book of life. The seven heads are not people. In Rev. 17:1 it is stated that the whore sits upon many waters and verse 15 tells us that the "waters" which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

So we see here that the waters are actually described as being peoples, nations, tongues etc. So obviously, if the waters are the peoples then the seven heads which are seven mountainsare not people, nations or tongues, but a description of a place(s) where the woman sits. A place that is the habitation of the peoples, nations and tongues. At any rate, scripture makes it clear that the heads are not the nations or the peoples. By now it is supposed to be obvious that the seven heads are anything but seven consecutive men/leaders of a governmental body. A world governing body would fit the description of the "waters" in this parable as this is the definition given in scripture of the peoples, tongues and nations. That means that all nations, even United Nations, would be the "waters" as put forth by Jesus Christ in his book of Revelation and not the heads.

Thus the heads on which the woman sits are something much different than people nations or tongues. Since this is the case, then any set of seven consecutive leaders or "heads" would not qualify as being the seven heads described in Revelation 13 as this interpretation is erroneous and does not follow the clear interpretation given by Jesus Christ. It would be Anti-Christ to hold onto a false interpretation of scripture—such as a "pre-trib rapture" as put forth in the commonly understood vernacular.

On the Anti-Christ...

It is important to notice that Revelation 13:1 is not a description of the "Anti-Christ". Nor is it a specific identifying marker of the individual known as the Ant-Christ. In fact with the proper interpretation of Rev. 13:1 we see that these verses may not apply to the Anti-Christ at all. This may confuse the reader, as the chapter seems to say that an individual is given power to continue 42 months. This may or may not be the Anti-Christ, but it is irrelevant in the context of this paper. What is clear is that the beast with seven heads and ten horns has nothing to do with a governmental body or seven consecutive leaders. This is made very clear from Rev. 17.

In addition, a careful reading of Rev 17:10 also makes it clear that there are "seven kings: five are fallen and one is…", there is NO evidence that these are not actual Kings. There is an assumption of facts-not-in-evidence that this description of seven kings are seven kingdoms. This may be a logical assumption, yet there is no evidence for such an assumption and there is no reason to think that these are not seven literal kings. Which of course begs the question if these are seven literal kings then what is this passage really saying? Let him who has discernment discern the meaning of the verse. It is a fool who rules out an interpretation of scripture because they do not understand what else it could mean. A fool rules out the interpretation of an event because they do not understand what else it could mean.

Luke 15:2-10.

The apostate church has long held the belief that the "rain" mentioned in Joel 2:23 speaks of some power that God poured out upon His people in the past and will pour out again on His people in the future. Looking closer at the original words for "rain" gives us a different interpretation of this verse.

"Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain in the first month." Joel 2:23

• former rain - Strong's #4175- An archer; also teacher or teaching, from #3384- to point out, to teach

• rain - Strong's #1653- a shower; from #1652- to shower violently

• latter rain - Strong's #4456- the spring rain, eloquence, from #39533 - to gather the aftercrop

• moderately - Strong's #6666- rightness, rectitude, justice, virtue, prosperity. from #6663- to make right (in a moral or forensic sense), cleanse, clear self, (be,do) just, (be, turn to) righteousness





• come down - Strong's #3381- to descend, (go downwards, or conventionally to a lower region, as the shore, a boundary, the enemy, etc. or fig. to fall) to bring down, cast down, subdue, take down....





• given - Strong's #5414- appoint, ascribe, assign, avenge, recompense, render, requite, shoot forth....(and many more)

The word "rain" can be used as either a noun or a verb. Example: There is a lot of rain today. Rain here is a noun. It will rain soon. Rain here is a verb, denoting action.

#1653 rain is being used as a verb denoting action and that the action is applied to both the former rain and the latter rain.

Gen. 49:22-26 gives the description of Joseph revealing him as the ultimate Archer, and that "the archers sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him. But whose bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob..." So there are two archer types mentioned here. One being Joseph or God's Archer, and the other would be evil archers. It looks the same for Joel 2:23. One of the archers is appointed by God and the other is brought down.

Rain #1653 implies "with violence" and applies to both the evil archer type and the after crop. Come down #3381 implies descending, falling, subduing and also applies to both the evil archer type and the after crop.

Therefore, you could read this verse like this:
"Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for in His righteousness and because of His justice, He has appointed His archer to cast down with violence the evil archer and subdue and gather the after crop, (multitude), in the first."

There's no question that "violence” would apply to the ingathering of the multitude. Mt.11:12 says "....the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." There is a war raging even now as both archer types try to subdue the multitude.
