When our saviour Yahshua (Jesus) revealed to us, his beloved bride, what must take place shortly, he dedicated substantial volume of his revelations to details on how Satan will try to steal the stage of final days’ events. From revelation 7: 2 it is revealed that Yahshua (Son of The Eternal One) would commission his angels to seal his Saints with “….the seal of EL – CHAY (The Living God)” lest they suffer the wrath of the Almighty as judgement falls on evil – doers.
Abba (Father) is a righteous and just Judge and this foundational sealing is to the effect that Adonay (LORD) may know “…..them that are his….” – (11 Timothy 2:19). From Luke 21:18, Yahshua (Jesus) promised us that “….there shall not a hair….perish…” that belongs to us his saints because “even the very hairs of ….” our “….head are all numbered….” – (Mathew 10:30).
From Isaiah 8:16, the Great Rabbi (Yahshua) issues a royal divine command, “….seal up the law among my disciples.” This means that those sealed of Adonai do not party with the lawless world. My beloved ones let us not enjoin the misguided evangelical mainstream in their delusions (self – deception) of annulment of The Great Law of Elohim on the cross. From revelation 7:3 we further learn that these servants of the Most High are “…..sealed …. In their foreheads.” Revelation 22:4 explains that this Identity of Abba on his chosen ones shall be “….His Name in their foreheads…” From Ephesians 1:13; 4:30 it is further explained that this divine sealing is done with “…..that Holy Spirit of Promise….” These Chosen and sealed of Elohim shall not suffer the Wrath of Elohim (God) as explained in revelation 9:4.
The envious copyist, Satan, cannot withstand such great ingenuity of Adonai and his Son. As is his norm he will desperately try to ape it (do the same); marking his own! However, the all–season Failure, Satan, will miserably fail. His Identified Ones will not be saved from the wrath of Elohim but will end up being “….tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence…..of the Lamb…” – revelation 14:9, 10.
Before going any further it is important to explain who the beast that has a mark is. Many times many people have fronted fake candidates claiming they are the beast. Among these candidates are Emperor Nero, Reich Adolf Hitler and the Computer machine. All these candidates fall short of the aforementioned traits of the beast and therefore cannot give rise to the mark of the beast. These candidates have all died whereas the beast shall be still alive when Yahshua comes back since the prophet “…..saw heavens opened, and behold….The Word of Elohim…. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth….gathered to make war against him that sat on the horse…..” – (revelations 19:11-21).
The only fit candidate is Papacy. Papacy reigned supreme for 1260 days/years from 538 AD to 1798 AD, was fatally wounded by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1798AD and the papacy banned into abyss up to 1929, then reinstated by Benito Mussolini of Italy the same year 1929 under the Lateran Concordat Treaty – (THE NEW YORK TIMES, Tuesday, February 12, 1929). Though many people believe that this institution is the head of the world religion founded on faith in Yahshua (Christ), nothing could be farther from the truth. More often than not, insiders tired of the folly played on masses of adherents have leaked sensitive information on the intimacy between Satan himself and Papacy. They may appear meek as vicars of the true lamb of Elohim in public but this institution wields the “…..power…seat and great authority….” of the dragon – Satan – (revelation 13:1, 2). Some of their blasphemous claims are the charism of the papal infallibility powers of absolution of sins (Catechism of the Catholic Church, Part one, section two, chapter three, article 9 – www.vatican.va) They have mastered the art of subtly doubling thus.
Even in his craftiness, Satan will not own up his mess. This is his mistake number one. Rather another shall bear the responsibility and be cast into the lake of fire – (revelation 19:20). It is interesting to note that this mark of the beast is “….the number of his name….” – (revelation 13:17). This must be a name of a human ruler for it is written that “….it is the number of a man…..” – (revelation 13:18). When summed up, this number totals to 666. The supreme leader in this papal institution has the official title of VICARIUS FILII DEI which can be translated as the VICAR (REPRESENTATIVE) OF THE SON OF GOD. Being a Latin language which letters hold numerical values it is important we decode this mark since it is cheap and not as sophisticated as the seal of our heavenly Father. In Latin, letter I has a numerical value of one, V or U five, X ten, L fifty, C one hundred, D five hundred and M one thousand. All the other letters do not have a numerical value and are equal to zero. When summed up, VICARIUS FILII DEI yields 666: (5+1+100+0+0+1+5+0+0+1+50+1+1+500+0+1 = 666).
Many times isolated government efforts to generate Identification numbers and Personal Identification Numbers such as the Kenyan Huduma numbers have caused jitters among those not acquainted with the scriptures. Surely these codes have not generated 666 neither are they the number of the papal man VICARIUS FILII DEI.
Mistake number two of Satan is to temporarily mark his own instead of permanently sealing them! A mark can be deleted but a seal is challenging to break since only the person who encoded it can decode it. Others who are smart enough may chance to decode it if it is cheap enough. From previous revelations in Revelation 5:1-3 we learn that seals created by our Living Elohim (God) are so highly sophisticated that the prophet saw “…..no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth was able to …..” decode such seals! Satan is truly simple, cheap and easy; his mark cannot match – up to the standard of Elohim’s highly sophisticated seals?
While Yahshua (Jesus) uses angelic agents to seal his loved ones, Satan will use humans to carry out his marking exercises. This is his third mistake. We find in Revelation 13:11, 16 “….a beast coming out of the earth….and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke as a dragon…….and he causes both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their forehead.” This beastly agent of HaSatan does not arise from the sea of people like former beasts seen in revelation 13:1; 17:17 and Daniel 7 by the holy prophets. This beast also has two horn – fronts from which arises its rulers. This beast also speaks as a dragon. This beast also advocates for the agenda of the former reincarnated beastly Anti-Moshiach (anti- Christ); saying to the dwellers of the earth “….that they should make an image to the beast….” – (revelation 13:14). This two horned beast had power to give life to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast be killed….” – (revelation 13:15).
Only the United States of America (USA) seems to match the power described here. Unlike other former world empires like Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo – Persians, Grecians and Romans that arose from a sea of people striving to oust each other from world supremacy, USA surely did not arise that way. There was no world empire that was ousted from the land of America for USA to rise to world supremacy. Rather it quietly nurtured itself from a relatively dry land that was unknown to the ancient world empires generally seen as beasts that often preyed on the people of Elohim (God). USA also has a unique system of “democracy” that ensures that its leader (President) can only arise from one of its two horns: namely republicans and democrats. Though USA deceives the world that its constitution is founded on the Holy Scriptures, she ironically speaks as Satan (the dragon – revelation 2:9) would, breaking The Law Of Elohim by advocating for liberalism such as homosexuality, abortion among other evils stated in 1 Corinthians 6:9, Romans 1:26,27 and Jeremiah 2:34.
It is USA that brought fire from heaven by pioneering the discovery of electricity (fire from heaven). It is also from this beast, USA, that an image of the former beast which is a world union of faiths (churches) shall be founded. Like the former beast that had/has a formidable single world religion with which it regularly battered the children of Elohim under the guise of crusades and inquisitions, this lamb-dragon will also brand any dissent a terrorist! Anybody who will not profess allegiance to the institutions of this new found single universal faith will be hunted down like a terrorist.
In light of the above brief interpretation, USA, with its technological advancements, will be the agent of Satan to administer the mark of the reincarnated Papacy
Over the years, Satan has repeatedly miscalculated his moves by thinking that he can scare saints into submission by threatening their lives. He fails to understand they actually “….desire to depart and to be with HaMoshiach (The Christ)…” – (Philippians 1:23). So his fatal mistake number four shall be to slay those opposed to the mark of his beast. None of those written in the book of life shall bow down to the beast of Satan nor receive the mark of the beast. None, not even one; only those “….whose names are not written in the book of life of the lamb….” Shall worship the beast – (revelation 13:8). Contrary to Satan’s schemes of snatching their lives, the prophet “…..saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Yahshua…..and which had not worshipped the beast….neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands and they lived and reigned with Yahshua…..” – Revelation 20:4. It will be a fatal anti-climax for the usurper, Satan, who beguiled our father Adam of his dominion. It will be a climax for the Sons of Adam as they will once and for all prove that the Critic Satan who saw Adam unworthy to bear the image of Elohim was wrong while Elohim (God) was right all along to treasure his image in these dusty creations. Then all creation will concur with the inspiration of Romans 11:33 “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of Elohim! How unsearchable are his judgements, and his ways past finding out!”
