Popes

Brother Eric,

Page 170 of your CD book is HUGE.

Just wondering......Constantine became at least somewhat familiar with Christianity through his mother, Helena. Could it be that through her teaching from the scriptures, Constantine eventually became aware of Revelation 17 and the "seven hilled city" destined to unite the world to wage war against the Lord of lords and King of kings, and that is why he vacated Rome and went to Byzantium? Could that be what motivated him to leave all his vestments and Senate (donation of Constantine) and anything that might connect him to that man of sin in a purposeful attempt to shed all onus away from himself and on to another?

And after Caesar Constantine, the "restrainer" left Rome, leaving Rome to the "Man of Sin", the Man of Sin has also realized that he dwells in the "doomed city," and through the Templars and eventually Ignatius, has sought to seize Jerusalem and leave a decoy in Rome, thus shedding the onus away from the Papacy as the Biblical Antichrist as did Caesar?

What seems obvious to me is that God, despite all the Papacy's efforts to move to Jerusalem over the centuries, has made it impossible for the Man of Sin to shed that scriptural onus by moving to Jerusalem and vacating the doomed city on seven hills. God allowed Caesar to vacate Rome because he is not that man. But God has thwarted every attempt of the Papacy to leave Rome, thus not allowing him to shed the onus of his true Antichrist identity and setting up a replacement in Rome in his absence to take the onus away.

Care to comment?

Dear Brother Tom,

Constantine was a God-hating sinner until the day he was "baptized" and died in Nicomedia, Turkey, as he sickened during his attempted crusade against Persia. He left Rome in 330 AD upon being motivated by the devil, as Satan was makin way to build his papacy with his Bishop of Rome---the pope.

Secondly, I do not believe Constantine was "he who now lets" of II Thess. 2:6-7 (the Restrainer). For the Restrainer has the power to restrain Satan himself from bringing "that man of sin" to power, "that Wicked one whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming, even him whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders . . ." Thus, the Restrainer can be none other than God himself, namely, the Holy Spirit. Whe He is taken out of the way of Satan at "the falling away" (i.e., "the departure"--apostasia) of II Thess. 2:3, then Satan will be able to bring his Babylonian Messiah to total world power sometime after that event. As I have said, that Babylonian Messiah is the coming Man-Beast, the Antichrist, the coming Risen Pope who will be murdered and rise from the dead as per "the working of Satan" to be the Eighth Roman Caesar King of Revelation 17:10.

The Seven Kings of Revelation 17:10-11 are Roman Caesars, literal men not kingdoms. Five have fallen they being Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Vespasian and Titus. The Sixth King, the "one is," was the Caesar at the time of the writing of The Revelation by the apostle John at Patmos in 95-96 AD. That Caesar was Domitian. But the Seventh King has yet to come. He will be killed, and brought back to life as the Eighth King, yet is of the seven, I believing the Seventh coming King to be the risen Seventh King, but completely different as the Eighth King. He will be different in that he will no longer be pope, but the Satan-possessed Man-Beast of Revelation 13:3-10. Clearly, Rome is doomed to be destroyed by the future 10 kings who will be subordinate to the Beast (Rev. 17:12-18).

I cover all of this in my Power Point. If you would like a copy I will give you one since you are on the air and giving much energy to this understanding.

Further, I have heard your position that Michael the Archangel is the pre-incarnate Son of God. This is an error, dear brother, as it impugns the eternality of the Second Person of the Godhead, the Son of God later to become flesh as the Lord Jesus Christ. Please reconsider. Michael is a created archangel; the Son of God now in an eternal human body, was never created for it by Him that all things consist (Col. 1:17).

Lord Bless and keep exposing the Roman Harlot,

Brother Eric
