The book of Daniel identifies that it is Rome that establishes the vision, and that understanding was opposed by the Protestants of Millerite history when William Miller identified this fact. In the last days, it is still Rome that establishes the vision, and today Laodicean Adventism now upholds the fallen Protestant view that the robbers of thy people are Antiochus Epiphanes. The covenant people that were being passed by in Millerite history resisted the very same truth, that is now resisted by the covenant people of the last days that are now being passed by. Solomon said it well:
Buk pa Daniel nyutu ni en Roma ma oketo neno, ki ngec man kityeko gimego ne ki Protestants i histori me Millerite, ka William Miller onongo onyutu gin eni. I kare me agiki, pud en Roma ma oketo neno, ki kombedi Adventism me Laodicea dong gwoko tam pa Protestant ma opoto, me ni jago pa jo mamegi obedo Antiochus Epiphanes. Jo me lagam ma i histori me Millerite, ma kityeko layo gi woko, gimedo woko ada acel acel man; ma kombedi gitye kagimego ne ki jo me lagam me kare me agiki ma kombedi kityeko layo gi woko. Solomon owaco maber ni:
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there anything whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. Ecclesiastes 1:9, 10.
Gin ma kityeko bedo obedo gin ma bino bedo; ki gin ma kityeko timo obedo gin ma bino timo; pe tye gin manyen i tung ceng. Tye gin mo ma ki twero waco ni, ‘Nen, eni obedo manyen?’ En dong kityeko bedo con, ma obedo i anyim wa. Ecclesiastes 1:9, 10.
Prophetically there are three manifestations of Rome, and the first two manifestations identify the characteristics of the third, for truth is established upon the testimony of two.
I poro, tye nyutu adek me Roma, ki ma kwongo ki ma aryo ginyutu kit pa ma adek, pien atir kiketo piny ikom dwoko pa jo aryo.
But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. Matthew 18:16.
Ento ka pe bi winyo yin, ci kel ki yin ngat acel onyo aryo, pi ni i dho joneno aryo onyo adek wic weng obed atir. Matayo 18:16.
The religion of pagan Rome was paganism, and paganism is a counterfeit of true religion. It is not so much a counterfeit in the sense that counterfeit currency is understood, for paganism actually looks nothing like true religion. But prophetically it has counterfeit characteristics. The City of Rome is a counterfeit of Jerusalem, and it has a temple (the Pantheon) that was a counterfeit of the temple in Jerusalem. The religious practices of paganism are unsanctified and devilish, but they represent Satan’s counterfeit religious practices. The head of pagan Rome’s religion was titled Pontifex Maximus. “Pontifex Maximus” originally referred to the chief priest of the Roman state religion in ancient Rome, with its origins dating back to the early Roman Republic. Over time, it became associated with political and religious authority and eventually evolved into the title used by the Pope in the Roman Catholic Church today.
Dini pa Rome me woko en aye kwo me woko, kede kwo me woko en gin ma kicoyo pa dini ma ada. Pe obedo coyo i kit ma wan tito “cente me bwoc”; pien kwo me woko peke nen calo dini ma ada. Ento i wang lanen, tye ki nger me coyo. Ciiti me Rome en gin ma kicoyo pa Jerusalem, kede tye ki tempol (Pantheon) ma obedo coyo pa tempol i Jerusalem. Tije me dini pa kwo me woko pe lamaleng, kede me jogi; ento gituro nyutu tije me dini ma kicoyo pa Satan. Lub me dini pa Rome me woko onongo ki nying “Pontifex Maximus.” “Pontifex Maximus” con con onongo nyutu lapriest madito me dini pa gamente me Rome i Rome me con, kede kacako ne tye i te acaki me Ripabulik me Rome. Kun kare otyeko otyeko, ocwaro rwate ki twero me politiki kede me dini; lacen oyubu woko odok nying ma Papa ojuko kwede kombedi i Dini Katoliki me Rome.
The title of the chief priest of pagan Rome was Pontifex Maximus, and it was also the title of the chief priest of papal Rome and it is a Latin term that means the “Greatest of Supreme Pontiff.” He was the chief priest of the Roman state religion, particularly the cult of the god Jupiter. The Pontifex Maximus had significant religious authority and responsibilities, including overseeing various religious rites and ensuring the proper functioning of the Roman religious calendar. The Pontifex Maximus was the head of the College of Pontiffs (Collegium Pontificum), a group of priests responsible for interpreting and maintaining the rituals of Roman religion.
Nying me ladit pa lami pa yecu i Rome ma pe gikristo en Pontifex Maximus; kacel, aye nying me ladit pa lami pa yecu i Rome pa Papa. Nying man en me Leb Latini, ma nyutu ni "Madit loyo pa Pontif ma loyo weng." En obedo ladit pa yecu pa gamente Rome, ma pire kene i kom kit me woro Lubanga Jupiter. Pontifex Maximus otye ki twero me yecu madit kede latic me cing mapol, ma pire kene kobo ki loyo tije me yecu mapat-pat, kacel ki gwoko ni kalenda me yecu pa Roman tiyo calo kit ma ber. Pontifex Maximus en ladit pa Lwak pa Pontif (Collegium Pontificum), lwak me lami pa yecu ma ticegi en poyo ne kede gwoko ket me yecu pa Roman.
The chief priest of both pagan and papal Rome was Pontifex Maximus, therefore the title of the head of modern Rome will naturally also be Pontifex Maximus. The religion of pagan Rome was paganism, and the religion of papal Rome was, and still is, paganism, but cloaked by a profession of Christianity, and the religion of last-day modern Rome will be paganism, cloaked by a profession of Christianity.
Ladit me lami i Ruma me pe Kricitiani ki i Ruma pa Papa ne obedo Pontifex Maximus; ka mano, ladit pa Ruma me kombedi obi bedo ki nying Pontifex Maximus. Lamo pa Ruma me pe Kricitiani ne obedo lamo me pe Kricitiani, ki lamo pa Ruma pa Papa ne obedo, ki kombedi bene obedo, lamo me pe Kricitiani, ento kicobo iye ki waco ni obedo Kricitiani; ki lamo pa Ruma me kombedi i kare me agiki obi bedo lamo me pe Kricitiani, ma kicobo iye ki waco ni obedo Kricitiani.
Both pagan and papal Rome had a specific period of time that they would rule supremely. Pagan Rome was to rule supremely for three hundred and sixty years in fulfillment of the time prophecy of Daniel chapter eleven, verse twenty-four.
Rome me lajwok, ki Rome me Papa, gin aryo gubedo ki kare ma kiketo atir me loro maloyo weng. Rome me lajwok ne myero loro maloyo weng pi mwaka 360, i tyeko pa lok me janabi ma kom cawa ma i Daniel 11:24.
He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time. Daniel 11:24.
Obi donyo ki kuc, kadi i kabedogi ma opong loyo i piny; kadong obi timo gin ma laco mamege pe gitimo, ki kwaro mamege bende pe gitimo. Obicweyo i botgi gin ma okwanyogi i lweny, ki gin ma ogamo ki kwanyo, ki jami me dogi maber; aye, obicako tero paro pa en ikom ot me cuk ma tek, pi cawa mo. Daniel 11:24.
The subject of verse twenty-four is pagan Rome, for they became the subject in verse sixteen, and continue as the subject until verse thirty-one. We will address these verses specifically in coming articles, but here we are simply pointing out that prophecy identified that pagan Rome would rule supremely for three hundred and sixty years, as represented by Rome “forecasting” their “devices against the strong holds, even for a time.” The word translated “against” actually means “from,” and the verse is saying that Rome would direct the world “from” the “strong holds,” which was the City of Rome, and it would do so for a “time”, which is three hundred and sixty years.
Wic pa verse 24 en Rome me kwaro, pien i verse 16 gin odoko wic, kendo gidongo tye wic nyo i verse 31. Wa bi yabo verse magi peke i coc ma bino; ento kany wa tye ka nyutu keken ni lok pa nabi onongo oyaro ni Rome me kwaro obedo ki lony madwong pi higa 360, calo ma kikwayo i waci me Rome "forecasting" their "devices against the strong holds, even for a time." Lok ma kigonyo calo "against" con en "from", kendo verse owaco ni Rome obi tero lobo "from" "the strong holds", ma obedo Gweng madit pa Rome, kendo obi timo mano pi "time", ma en higa 360.
Pagan Rome began to rule supremely at the Battle of Actium, in 31 BC, and continued to rule supremely until the year 330 AD, when Constantine moved the capital of the empire from the stronghold of the City of Rome, to the City of Constantinople. Then the empire began its infamous decline. The City of Rome was the prophetic “strong hold” for pagan Rome, and when it ruled from that city it was invincible. In the warfare that followed Constantine’s transfer of power, the City of Rome became the target of attack for Genseric and the invading barbarian tribes, who are represented by the first four Trumpets of Revelation chapter eight.
Ruma me Pagan ocako telo ki twero madwong i Lweny pa Actium, i 31 BC, kede ocongo telo ki twero madwong nyo i nino 330 AD, ka Constantine oloko kabedo me kom pa lwak ki i Dul Ruma, oketo i Dul Constantinople. Dong lwak eno ocako bwolo ma nyinge marac. Dul Ruma obedo “kom me twero” ma porofetik pi Ruma me Pagan, kede ka otelo ki i dul meno, pe ki twero gudo ne. I lweny ma odugo pire kede loko twero ma Constantine otimo, Dul Ruma obedo lamal me golo pi Genseric ki oganda me barbarian ma bino kwano lobo, ma giyaro gi ki olut 4 me mukwongo me Revelation chapter 8.
For this reason in Daniel chapter eleven, verse thirty-one, the “arms” (pagan Rome) that stood up for the papacy, first polluted the “sanctuary of strength.” The City of Rome is the prophetic “sanctuary of strength” for both pagan and papal Rome, for in the year 330, with the transfer of pagan authority to Constantinople, the City of Rome was left to papal Rome that was on the rise. For this reason, Revelation chapter thirteen, verse two says the dragon (pagan Rome), gave papal Rome its “seat.” A “seat” is where a power rules from, and from the year 538 through to 1798, papal Rome ruled supremely as had pagan Rome ruled supremely for “a time”.
Pien gin man, i Daniel chapta 11, ves 31, “arms” (Rome me pagani) ma ocungo i bok pa twero pa Papa ki con gicako kunajisi “santuari me teko.” Siti me Rome obedo “santuari me teko” me porofetik pi Rome me pagani kacel ki Rome me Papa, pien i mwaka 330, ka twero me pagani ogicwalo i Constantinople, Siti me Rome ogiweko bot Rome me Papa ma tye ka medo. Pien gin man, Revelation chapta 13, ves 2 owaccio ni dragoni (Rome me pagani) omiyo Rome me Papa “kabedo” ne. “Kabedo” obedo kabedo ma twero olubo ki iye, ci i mwaka 538 nyo i 1798, Rome me Papa olubo ki twero madwong ma loyo weng, calo ka Rome me pagani ma bene olubo ki twero madwong ma loyo weng pi “cawa.”
Prophecy identifies a specific period of time when both pagan and papal Rome would rule supremely, and when they did so it would be from their seat of authority, which was the City of Rome. Pagan Rome’s invincibility ended when they left the City of Rome, marking the end of the three hundred and sixty years, represented as a “time” in verse twenty-four, and when the twelve hundred and sixty years of papal rule ended in 1798, Napoleon had the pope taken out of the City of Rome and he died in exile.
Lok me porofeti nyutu kare ma peke, kun Roma me lajwaki kacel ki Roma me Papa gu loyo piny ki twero madit; ci ka gicingo kamano, gin loyo ki i kom me twero gi, ma en Buru Roma. Twero ma pe ngat romo loyo pa Roma me lajwaki otum ka gi wuoko ki Buru Roma, me nyutu otum pa mwaka 360, ma kiloro calo ‘cawa’ i rek 24; ci ka mwaka 1,260 me laco pa Papa otum i 1798, Napoleon ogolo Papa ki Buru Roma, ci otho i piny ma pe pa iye.
Pagan Rome and Papal Rome establish that modern Rome will rule supremely for a specific prophetic period in the last days. “Time is no longer”, but the period of papal persecution of the last days is a specific period that begins at the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States and continues until human probation closes, when Michael stands up and pronounces, “He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.”
Romi me jogi ma pe yero Lubanga kede Romi me Pope nyutu ni Romi matye kombedi bi lawo ki cing ki rwom madit pi kare me porofeti ma rwom acel i kare me agiki. “Cawa pe dong,” ento kare me lubo-ki-peko pa Pope i kare me agiki obedo kare ma rwom acel, ma ocako ki cik me Sande ma bino koni i United States, ci mede nyo pire kun kare me tem pa dano lor, ka Mikael ocung ci oyube ni, “Ngat ma pe atir, we obed ma pe atir dok; ki ngat ma lepi, we obed lepi dok; ki ngat ma atir, we obed atir dok; ki ngat ma maleng, we obed maleng dok.”
Pagan Rome persecuted Christians in the Colosseum in the City of Rome during its bloody history, and Christian historians have estimated that during the Dark Ages of papal rule one hundred million martyrs were murdered by the papacy, but the papacy denies that claim and sets the estimate at about fifty million. Pagan and papal Rome both persecuted God’s faithful, and modern Rome will also persecute God’s faithful people in the last days.
Rome me pagani ocwero Joo Kristo i Colosseum i kabedo me Rome i lok me con mamego ma opong ki remo, ci jo me tito lok me con ma Joo Kristo gityeko miyo miti ni i kare macol me laco pa Popa jomatiir miliyoni mia acel gityeko kikwede ki Papasi; ento Papasi okwanyo lok eni ka oketi miti i mapat ki miliyoni abicel. Rome me pagani ki Rome me Popa dok odoko ocwero jo pa Lubanga ma tye ki geno matwal, ci Rome me kombedi bende obino cwero jo pa Lubanga ma tye ki geno matwal i cawa me agiki.
“Many will be imprisoned, many will flee for their lives from cities and towns, and many will be martyrs for Christ’s sake in standing in defense of the truth.” Selected Messages, book 3, 397.
Jo mapol bibedo i jele, jo mapol birweny pi gwoko cwinygi ki i kabedo madwong ki i kabedo matidi, ki jo mapol bibedo jo ma gibale pi nying Kristo ka bedo itung me gwoko gin matir. Selected Messages, book 3, 397.
Pagan Rome overcame three geographical obstacles as it took control of the world. Papal Rome overcame three geographical obstacles as it took control of the world. Modern Rome overcame the King of the South (the atheistic Soviet Union) in 1989, and will next overthrow the glorious land (the United States) at the soon coming Sunday law. It will then overcome Egypt (the entire world).
Rome ma pe yero Lubanga ogoyo gengo me kabedo adek ka ocweyo teko i piny weng. Rome pa Papa bende ogoyo gengo me kabedo adek ka ocweyo teko i piny weng.

“All society is ranging into two great classes, the obedient and the disobedient. Among which class shall we be found?

“Those who keep God’s commandments, those who live not by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God, compose the church of the living God. Those who choose to follow Antichrist are subjects of the great apostate. Ranged under the banner of Satan, they break God’s law, and lead others to break it. They endeavor so to frame the laws of nations that men shall show their loyalty to earthly governments by trampling upon the laws of God’s kingdom.
Jogi ma gwoko cik pa Lubanga, jogi ma pe bedo keken ki berede, ento ki lok weng ma aa ki i cok pa Lubanga, gin obedo Kereke pa Lubanga ma tye ngima.

“Satan is diverting minds with unimportant questions, in order that they shall not with clear and distinct vision see matters of vast importance. The enemy is planning to ensnare the world.

“The so-called Christian world is to be the theater of great and decisive actions. Men in authority will enact laws controlling the conscience, after the example of the Papacy. Babylon will make all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Every nation will be involved.” Manuscript Releases, volume 1, 296.
Lobo me Kristien ma gi kwayo ni obi bedo ka me tic madit ki ma kelo mukato. Gi ma tye ki twero gitero cik me loro cwiny, ki kit pa Papasi. Babilon obi miyo piny weng ginedo miny me kono pa cobo ne. Piny mo keken obi bedo iye. Manuscript Releases, dul 1, pot 296.
In order to defend the truth that identifies the “glorious land” of Daniel eleven verse forty-one as a symbol of the United States, the Lion of the tribe of Judah opened to the students of prophecy of the last days the principle of the triple application of prophecy. The light from those last six verses, have been established by applying the history represented by “the daily” in the book of Daniel, as set forth in verse thirty-one of Daniel eleven, unto the last six verses of the chapter. The same bedrock truth (“the daily”), that became the key of Miller’s prophetic framework, also produced the prophetic framework of the last days. Miller’s framework was based upon the two desolating powers of paganism and papalism that persecuted God’s people, and the framework of the last days is based upon the three desolating powers that persecute God’s people in the last days.
Me gwoko adiera ma nyutu ni “glorious land” i Danyel 11:41 obedo cal pa United States, Leona pa dul me Yuda oyabo bot jo me kwano poro i cawa me agiki kit me applikesyen adek me poro. Ler ma oaa ki lok matidi abicel magi, kiketo piny kun kicako katic kwede gin matime ma “the daily” nyuto iye i buk pa Danyel, macalo ma ki yaro i Danyel 11:31, ki kete iye i bot lok matidi abicel me agiki pa goc man.

The increase of knowledge represented in the last six verses of Daniel eleven, that represent the increase of knowledge that arrived in 1989, and that are represented by the Hiddekel River, was resisted by the enemies of truth. That resistance led to an understanding of the principle of the triple application of prophecy, which was first recognized as a triple application of Rome, which is the subject that establishes the vision of prophetic history.
Lok abicel me agiki i Daniel apar acel nyutu medo ngec ma obino i 1989, kede bene nyutu ki Aora Hiddekel; ento jo ma lweny ki atir gigeno ne. Gigeno man omiyo nongo ngec me cik me keto lok poropheti i kit adek, ma me acoki oneno calo keto i kit adek pa Rome, ma obedo wii lok ma oketo but neno me histori me poropheti.
Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Proverbs 29:18.
Ka pe tye kwena, lwak obalo: ento ngat ma gwoko cik, obedo ayom. Proverbs 29:18.
The triple application of the three manifestations of Rome identifies that pagan and papal Rome’s religion is paganism, and that their religion is governed by a man titled Pontifex Maximus. Those two manifestations of Rome identify that three geographical powers are removed in advance of them ruling supremely for a specified period of time, and that they will rule from the seven-hilled city of Rome, which is their sanctuary of strength. They both witnessed to the fact that they persecuted God’s faithful people. Therefore, based upon these two witnesses we know that modern Rome’s religion will be paganism, and that she will be directed by the pope of Rome whose title is Pontifex Maximus.
Ter me kit adek me nyutu pa Rome nyutu ni dini pa Rome me pagani, kede pa Rome me Pope, en pagani; ki ni dini gi gityeko loyo ne ki dano acel ma kiye kwede nying Pontifex Maximus. Kit nyutu aryo pa Rome nyutu ni twero adek me lobo gikwanyo woko ki macon, mapwod pe gicako lonyo ki tek pa tutwal pi cawa ma kiketo ne, ki ni gibed gityeko lonyo ki i bur pa Rome ma tye ki got abicel aryo, ma en kwer me twero pa gi. Gin aryo bene ginyutu ni gubedo gimiyo pek ne jo pa Lubanga ma tye ki yie. Erac, kun wot ikom gin aryo man ma ginyutu, wan ngeyo ni dini pa Rome me tin obed pagani, ki ni obed kiyubu ki Pope pa Rome, ma kiye kwede nying Pontifex Maximus.
Before the great whore takes control and rules supremely modern Rome will need to overcome three obstacles, and the first obstacle is past history with the demise of the Soviet Union in 1989, Rome’s atheistic enemy that resisted Rome’s power in Europe. The next obstacle is overthrown at the soon coming Sunday law in the United States, and then the United Nations will give its authority unto modern Rome for a short space. Once it is fully enthroned the persecution of the last days will take place.
Mapwod pe dako me kwac madit oywako teko ka olubo maloyo weng, Ruma pa kombedi myero ogolo woko gin me gengo adek; ci gin me gengo acel dong obedo lok me con: opoto woko pa Soviet Union i 1989, ludiro pa Ruma ma pe geno Nyasaye ma oribe ki teko pa Ruma i Europe.

The book of Daniel, and especially Revelation chapter eight, provide the prophetic characteristics of Rome, which contribute to the correct understanding of modern Rome. One of those characteristics was the division of the Roman Empire into East and West as accomplished by Constantine in the year 330. Pagan Rome and papal Rome, when considered together, also speak to the twofold nature of Rome. Constantine’s division that produced western and eastern Rome is a second witness to pagan and papal Rome. Constantine set up the civil authority in the east, and left the ecclesiastical authority in the west. Pagan Rome represented statecraft and papal Rome represented churchcraft. The east was statecraft, the west was churchcraft as typified by the iron and clay of Daniel two, or the masculine horn and feminine horn of Daniel eight, or the beasts of prey of Daniel seven, and the sanctuary beasts of Daniel eight.
Buk me Daniel, ki pi kare maloyo Buk me Nyutu pa Yohana kapita aboro, gimiyo kite me laneni pa Roma, ma gikonye me nongo ngec ma kakare pi Roma pa kombedi. Acel i kite meno obedo yiko Lwak pa Roma i Wi Ceng ki Wi Bor, kaka Constantine otimo i mwaka 330. Roma ma pe yaro Lubanga ki Roma me Papa, ka kikenyo gi kacel, bende ginyutu pi kit aryo pa Roma. Yiko ma Constantine otimo ma oyubo Roma me Wi Bor ki Roma me Wi Ceng, obedo lami aryo pi Roma ma pe yaro Lubanga ki Roma me Papa. Constantine oketo twero me lobo i Wi Ceng, omedo ogwoko twero me kanisa i Wi Bor. Roma ma pe yaro Lubanga onongo nyutu calo tim me lobo, ento Roma me Papa onongo nyutu calo tim me kanisa. Wi Ceng onongo obedo tim me lobo, Wi Bor onongo obedo tim me kanisa, kacalo ma kimiyo cal kwede okeyo ki dayo i Buk me Daniel kapita aryo, onyo horn pa lacoo ki horn pa dako i Buk me Daniel kapita aboro, onyo le me ceri ma kweyo i Buk me Daniel kapita abiro, ki le me gang kuc i Buk me Daniel kapita aboro.
Modern Rome will also be twofold in nature, consisting of a combination of church and state, of iron and clay, and of churchcraft and statecraft, but Modern Rome is also threefold in nature. In Revelation chapter eight both western and eastern Rome were literally and symbolically divided into three. Constantine ruling from eastern Rome literally divided his kingdom to his three sons, and western Rome was symbolically represented by the sun, moon and stars that represented the threefold form of government that was employed by the Roman Empire. Thus, Modern Rome, though being twofold of churchcraft and statecraft, would also represent a threefold union represented by the dragon, the beast and the false prophet.
Roma me kombedi bende obedo i kit aryo, ma obedo ki kome me kanisa ki gamenti, me ogor ki amiru, kacel ki tic me kanisa ki tic me gamenti; ento Roma me kombedi bende obedo i kit adek. I Buk me Ngec, dyer aboro, Roma me tung cen ki Roma me tung cam gi ocobo i adek pire kene ki i cal. Konstantino, ma rwot i Roma me tung cam, opire kene ocobo piny pa rwot mamegi bot lutino adek mamegi; ento Roma me tung cen i cal gineno ki ceng, dwe ki ger, ma gineno kit adek me tedo pa gamenti ma lobo me Rome otyeko tiyo kwede. Ka dong kamano, Roma me kombedi, kadi obedo i aryo me tic me kanisa ki tic me gamenti, onego bende onyutu rwate me adek ma ki nyutu kwede Diragon, Lewic, ki Nabii marac.
The manifestations of pagan and papal Rome identify the complex prophetic makeup of the final Modern Rome. It is the threefold union that takes place at the soon coming Sunday law that leads the world to Armageddon. It is the worldwide “Image of the Beast” which is a symbol of the combination of Church and State. Its head is Pontifex Maximus, who rules from the City of Rome, which is the seat of his power. The man of sin’s civil authority will be provided by the United Nations, and the world will be forced to accept the threefold, yet dual system of the antichrist, by the coercive power of the United States. Thus, just as pagan Rome (the dragon) in Revelation thirteen, verse two, gave the papacy “his power, his seat and great authority”, the United States, as typified by pagan Rome, accomplishes the same three works for modern Rome. The seat is Vatican City in the seven-hilled city of Rome, the authority is the United Nations, and the power is the United States. Together they lead the world to a place where the papacy “shall come to his end, and none shall help him”.

And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 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. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. Revelation 16:12–17.
