THE STAGE IS SET FOR THE ANTICHRIST!

INTRODUCTION

Imagine you are holding in your hands, right now, the loudest fire-engine siren you have ever heard.

The bright red lights are boldly blinking, almost blinding you.

Unbearably loud noises shatter the tranquility of your quiet room.

The brilliant, blinking lights and the devastating noise decibels from this fire-engine siren COMMAND your complete and total attention.

WHY?

Because man designed the fire-engine siren to SHOCK YOU into an awareness, to WAKE YOU UP to an impending crisis.

All truths are parallel.

Just as man sometimes needs to be shocked in the natural world, so too, man sometimes needs a sudden shock in the spiritual world.

This powerful prophecy book you are now holding in your hands is designed to be your spiritual siren.

It will shock you into attention!

It will WAKE YOU UP to an impending spiritual crisis...—the subtle infiltration of THE UNHOLY UNITY into the major areas of our world.

For most of us, the term "unity" implies predominantly positive, BRIGHT connotations. We use this word to describe pleasant people functioning in harmony and agreement.

"Family UNITY" is one example; Christians "UNITED" against abortion also exemplifies the BRIGHT SIDE of a united oneness.

Even the divine mystery of the Godhead is the HOLY UNITY of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit into one God.

These "bright sides" of UNITY are desirable, but they are not the issues God wants me to share with you in this book.

God intends for this book to serve as your alarm!

You need to heed this spiritual siren, and know that there can be serious and sinful pitfalls to false unity, especially as we watch the many endtime events unfold in these last days.

Not ALL unity is good.

Or godly.

In this book, you will read about three major movements of increasing unity—our World Economic System, the One-world Political System, and a One-world Religious System.

In each of these three areas, you will come to understand, through prophecy, scripture, and divine revelation, that these movements are preparing this world for the Antichrist, and the great tribulation.

For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

(II John 7)

When Jacob set out to prophetically warn his sons what "shall befall you in the last days,"

(Genesis 49:1) the first warning he gave to them was:

O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honour, be NOT thou UNITED.

(Genesis 49:6)

Jacob's prophetic warning is highly significant and important, especially since it is THE FIRST TIME in God's Holy Word where "the last days" are mentioned.

Today, as God unfolds the final endtime events, you and I must take these prophetic warnings of Jacob very seriously.

JACOB'S LAST DAYS WARNING!

Jacob instructed the descendants of Israel... now the emerging Church of dedicated, uncompromising believers...that in "the last days," we are to AVOID coming into the "secrets" of those who are not going to give honor to God.

Jacob even said for us to STAY OUT OF THEIR ASSEMBLY!

His prophecy talks about a time when light will try to mingle with darkness, when saints will compromise and seek assembly with sinners...—and

Jacob warned, STAY OUT!

Jacob declared that for my "honor," and for the honor of God, STAY AWAY from worldly, murderous men... sinful men not of GOD'S mind.

In the New Testament, John echoes this same stern warning:

This, then, is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

(I John 1:5,6)

Today, these prophetic warnings GO UNHEEDED.

Clearly, Jacob understood, through God's eyes, that UNITY is not always a good thing.

Clearly, John understood that light and darkness can never fellowship in oneness.

Clearly, as a Christian, I am sure you understand that you cannot be "united" with a pornographer in a business venture. That would be a repulsion to God.

Yet, today, a leading religious denomination now allows homosexuals to preach from their pulpits as pastors, in a so-called spirit of "unity" and oneness!

God wants to vomit such hypocrisy out of His mouth:

So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

(Revelation 3:16)

Unity...at the sacrifice of spiritual integrity, and achieved through moral compromise...is repulsive to God.

And yet, as these endtimes continue to unfold, I see in my spirit an increasing, ungodly trend by world governments, leaders in world economies and even by church organizations to come together in some form of UNHOLY UNITY.

In most cases, this oneness simply means shameful and sinful compromise.

As you read about this loud, blinking spiritual siren of prophecy, I pray God will reveal to you a clear understanding of the unfolding of endtime events, and clarify for you many of the misunderstood elements in prophecy.

Through this book you will come:

•    TO UNDERSTAND the mark of the beast.

•    TO KNOW the meaning of a one-world government.

•    TO RECOGNIZE the emerging Antichrist.

Satan's smoke cloud of confusion cannot stop you from receiving God's crystal-clear, prophetic directions for your life!

Through this book, you will grow to easily and readily recognize the now-unfolding dark side of oneness I call... THE UNHOLY UNITY!

God's faithful servant,

CHAPTER ONE

MONEY... SATAN'S UNIFYING FORCE!

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads. And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

(Revelation 13:16,17)

There currently exists a relatively obscure, little -known body of FIVE EXTREMELY POWERFUL MEN that are gaining CONTROL of the major economic decisions concerning the world's global monetary system!

Although this is NOT a secret organization...—these five men head a low-visibility organization that literally dictates billions of dollars worth of loans every year... without much notice!

Yet, I doubt whether one American in a thousand could even name ONE MEMBER of this incredibly powerful organization.

This small, select committee of five men is simply called the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

The IMF was founded on December 27, 1945, and is currently headquartered at 700 19th ST., N.W., Washington, D.C.

What's the purpose of this obscure organization called the IMF?

According to their charter, the IMF was founded to... "promote international monetary cooperation” by attempting to regulate and stabilize global monetary and trade transactions.

And, to achieve that goal, the IMF has tremendous financial clout!

Recently, the finance ministers of most of the major nations in the world asked the IMF... to embark on studies of monetary reform that could potentially herald significantly closer economic cooperation among all countries.

The finance ministers of Britain, the United States, Japan, West Germany, France and others look to the IMF for world economic leadership!

When these five men advocate interest cuts... — the nations and banks of the world obey, as though virtual puppets on a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC string.

The IMF is in absolute UNITY with the World Bank, an organization charged with assisting "in reconstruction and development of economies by making loans to governments. THESE TWO ORGANIZATIONS...

1.    THE IMF AND

2.    THE WORLD BANK,

—LITERALLY DETERMINE THE FINANCIAL FATE OF DEVELOPING NATIONS IN OUR WORLD TODAY!

Mexico, Brazil, South America, the Philippines,

Africa, Central America, Europe and so many others... are ALL intimately linked, through large loans, to the IMF and World Bank policies. Collectively, these two organizations influence debt payments in excess of ONE TRILLION DOLLARS!

What does this mean?

It means that the desperate need for MONEY by emerging nations is rapidly leading to a ONE-WORLD ECONOMY where nations are drawn together by a monetary need into AN UNHOLY UNITY that no country would normally choose.

It means that out of necessity (on the part of the debtor nations), and out of greed (by the lending nations), money creates very strange alliances... an unholy, financial unity.

THIS CHART SHOWS HOW MUCH MONEY MANY MAJOR COUNTRIES NOW OWE IN DEBTS TO INTERNATIONAL BANKS:

BRAZIL 100 BILLION

PERU 39 BILLION

MEXICO 45 BILLION

THE PHILIPPINES 32 BILLION

ARGENTINA 37 BILLION

NIGERIA 22 BILLION

MONEY has become the single most powerful magnetic force for uniting the nations of the world.

Our world economic system is no longer just a case of the "have's" helping the "have nots."

Billion dollar burdens are common debts for the countries of the world.

THROUGH THESE HUGE LOANS, THE LENDER AND THE DEBTOR NATIONS ARE NOW IN AN ALMOST UNBREAKABLE BONDAGE WITH EACH OTHER.

The lending nations are sorely dependent upon the debtor nations to pay their obligations.

ANY SERIOUS DEFAULT in these loans could dramatically affect the finances of the entire world!

So, when a debtor nation cannot repay their loan, the IMF and the World Bank are forced to LEND MORE MONEY, constantly "bailing out” a country in trouble through new, even larger loans.

Never before in history have we seen a day like today! The reality of a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM, as described in Revelation 13:16 and 17, is almost here!

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

RIGHT NOW, the five-man IMF and the World Bank have their "marks" on the debtor nations of the world.

RIGHT NOW, no nation can buy or sell in large volume without giving serious consideration to the current IMF and World Bank economic policies.

RIGHT NOW, money seems to be the powerful magnet that can force countries with different languages and different cultures to UNITE together for economic survival.

RIGHT NOW, international mutual funds are bonding together countries that normally do not have strong ties. For example, the Transatlantic Fund spreads most of its holdings among companies based in Australia, France, West Germany, Japan, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom (check chart to see how the investment has increased).

RIGHT NOW, more and more evidence of a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM is emerging. This is one of the clear signs given in the book of Revelation that the end is coming soon! The ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM is evolving—

... to show unto his servants things which must SHORTLY COME TO PASS;

(Revelation 1:1)

But there's more!

The Central Intelligence Agency recently reported that the Soviet Union has 100 PERCENT CONTROL of a base of banks in London, Paris, Frankfurt, Luxembourg, Zurich and Vienna... —and uses these banks to obtain funding from Western banks at unusually LOW INTEREST RATES!

Shocking as it sounds...

The CIA also reports that the Soviet Union recently tried to BUY three banks in northern California, in the prestigious Silicon Valley. The Soviets hoped these three banks would provide them with possible access to sensitive American high-technology blueprints in the computer industry.

Fortunately, the plan was uncovered and STOPPED by the CIA! But, Roger W. Robinson, Jr., former senior director of the National Security Council, warned Congress that they must—... get a better handle on the role of interbank deposits in the funding of the Soviet Union's global activities.

MONEY is bringing us into a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM, an UNHOLY UNITY of diverse nations, forced to interact to survive.

Money will force many weak Christians to receive the mark of the beast, and to actually betray and hate one another.

Money is a key tool the devil is using to bring about the endtime clash.

Do a Few Powerful Men Represent the Financial Fate of Our World?

A group of five individuals met in September of 1985 to attempt to monitor and even control the flow of international interest rates. Since these FIVE POWERFUL INDIVIDUALS...representing money interests from all around the world...MET, interest rates have dramatically dropped!

Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson, was one of the five men, and represented the leading industrial nations, such as the United States, Japan, West Germany and France. He told reporters...

—there was GENERAL AGREEMENT that interest rates should fall further.

The recent drops in our interest rates are not mere, simple coincidence. These FIVE MEN who represent the money interests of the world DECIDED to cause a dramatic drop in the interest rates!

Of course, this same GROUP OF FIVE went out of their way to deny there was any international plot to control interest rates. West German Finance Minister Gerhard Stoltenberg insisted "...this is no secret deal."

Meanwhile, since that meeting, this GROUP OF FIVE appears split over whether they should now engineer EXCHANGE RATE changes in the world global monetary system.

And here's the KEY QUESTION: What will these men DECIDE is going to happen next?

Hear the warning of the prophet!

Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein for the time is at hand.

(Revelation 1:3)

Every day, the world is becoming a one-world financial empire.

Soon these cards could be replaced by one worldwide credit card for every need.

SOON, with the advent of the new "super-computers," a personal bank card transaction in Paris, France, will be immediately recorded to your base account, anywhere in the world—within only a few seconds of the actual transaction! In any city of the world, money managers will be able to tap into your account.

SOON, virtually any check you write on your checking account will be IMMEDIATELY debited to your account. There will no longer be a one- , two- , or three-day "float" (the time it now takes for the bank to handle and clear your check transactions). All transactions will be within seconds!

SOON, thousands of computer terminals throughout the world will have INSTANT and immediate access to your personal finance information. All transactions will be immediately updated.

SOON, bank managers will insist your signature be replaced with your fingerprint on all transactions. The sophisticated scanners that can read your fingerprints are already being tested in various parts of the country! Many speculate that this fingerprint readout might be the mark of the beast on the right hand.

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads.

(Revelation 13:16)

We no longer live in an isolated economy.

What happens in the United States affects the economic reality in Japan. The steady decline in interest rates, profit taking by stock investors, and other fluctuations in our economy, have resulted in serious DEVALUATION IN OUR DOLLAR.

HERE'S HOW OUR DOLLAR STACKS UP AGAINST OTHER NATIONS:

$1 now equals 160.05 yen...a postwar low!

$1 now equals 2.20 West German marks... lowest since 1981!

$1 against the Swiss franc...the lowest exchange since 1982!

$1 against the Dutch guilder...lowest exchange since 1982!

The dollar value is dropping, and the loans to other countries continue to climb.

If Latin America were to default on their major $380-billion World Bank Loan, the ripples of that default would travel all the way down to your city bank.

Senator Bill Bradley recently summed up that ripple effect this way:

The simple truth is that the unacknowledged victims of the debt crisis are the U.S. workers.

Why will the workers suffer?

Because when a foreign country FAILS TO PAY its debts, then less money is available for the import of the U.S. products, and the reduced production in American factories will result in layoffs to U.S. workers.

Make no mistake about it—we are in AN UNHOLY UNITY with the nations of the world—whether they are Communist, Socialist, or Christian—all of us are UNITED by the need to survive in a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC system.

You need to know these endtime events are HAPPENING NOW, and you need to be prepared!

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

(I Thessalonians 5:46)

The American dollar is rapidly devaluating against the Japanese yen, the West German mark and the Swiss franc. San Diego Union Cartoon.

Jesus is coming! And, you need to recognize the signs, so you can...

"Be WATCHFUL, and STRENGTHEN the things which remain..."

(Revelation 3:2)

Right now, look at how OIL prices dramatically influence the buying habits, and even the vacation habits, of the entire world.

These OPEC ministers have the will—but not the power—to control oil prices.

When the price of oil is UP, factories cut back production; families do not travel as much.

When the price of oil is DOWN, a flurry of new vacations and new factory building programs begin.

Right now, the 13 members of OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) dictate to the world the price of oil. When the price of oil was escalating ever higher, many felt OPEC would be the basis for the ONE-WORLD ECONOMY.

But recently, we have seen a rapid and volatile reduction in oil prices, that on the surface, seems very good. These oil price drops have certainly rendered OPEC helpless.

But, here's the shocker!

Much of that TRILLION DOLLAR DEBT owed by debtor countries WAS SECURED BY OIL AT OVER $30 A BARREL!

Since that price is now below $15 a barrel, and continues to drop, much of the TRILLION DOLLARS IN OUTSTANDING LOANS is now unsecured!

Now, more than ever, the nations of the world have no real choice...

—they are BOUND TOGETHER into a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM!

And, the magnetic force that surely and steadily binds them together is MONEY.

As the endtime events unfold, virtually nothing will stop Satan's forces from completing a One-World Economic System.

Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

(II Peter 3:14)

Recognize the end is coming, and be ready!

Watch Saudi Arabia closely. They have a specific purpose for the decline in oil prices: to get the oil below our ability to produce it for a profit. Saudi Arabia is capable of producing oil for $2 per barrel. The United States, and other major oil-producing nations, need about $13 a barrel, or they shut off production. When that happens, Saudi Arabia will again control the market, and dictate high prices at will!

Much of the ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM is already in place.

Soon, men will have the "beastly" power to monitor and control virtually every single financial facet of your life.

When "the beast" in the book of Revelation comes into gradual power, there is no doubt that he will control the ONE-WORLD FINANCIAL SYSTEM.

His mark will be on everything:

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

(Revelation 13:18)

The challenge of our day is to be ready to serve God, and to daily live our commitment to God's purposes, no matter what the end-time events unfold. God will reward those who turn away from the 666 mark. Those...

...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.

(Revelation 20:4)

Keep your eyes on the unfolding financial circumstances. But...more importantly...

Keep your eyes focused on God!

Christ was committed to one purpose—to destroy the works of Satan. So too, we must be committed to the Purposes of God.

Nothing less than SINGLE-MINDED Christians, in a HOLY UNITY, will do.

You must be ready to do God's will, and be thoroughly trained in spiritual warfare to engage and defeat the enemy.

You need not fear the UNHOLY UNITY of a ONE-WORLD ECONOMIC SYSTEM when you know the Strategies of Jesus, and can use them to defeat Satan in your life!

Yes, there is an emerging One-World Economic system that will leave its mark on this earth.

But, praise God, there's an emerging HOLY UNITY of Christians who have the POWER to defeat any force that Satan can muster!

God will have a people...an uncompromising people, willing to keep God's laws, and able to function under His protection:

Because thou has kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

(Revelation 3:10)

Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

(James 5:3)

CHAPTER TWO

FRAGMENTATION FORCES POLITICAL UNITY

These have ONE MIND, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

(Revelation 17:13)

Have you ever noticed how the isolated, violent acts in our world political system always seem to FORCE otherwise separate nations together into a common cause?

Libyan leader Moammar Khadafy...a man President Reagan described as "a mad dog," claims his Libyan terrorist bombings around the world are simply "self-defense" against the evil forces of "oppressive capitalism."

Libya's hostile and erratic actions have produced strange political allies, including the P.L.O. and Russia (who now has 6000 military advisers in Libya).

When the United States launched their recent air strike on five targets in Libya, President Reagan also claimed our strikes were necessary acts of "selfdefense."

From this act of "self-defense" by the United

The actions of President Reagan against terrorism triggered worldwide reactions. May 5, 1986 - Time - Pg. 30

The terrorist attack on this Berlin discotheque triggered the eventual U.S. attack on Libya.

States, two nations aligned themselves on the side of U.S. liberty:

Britain and Israel.

WHAT DOES THIS CONFLICT MEAN?

These recent political conflicts between Libya and the United States reveal three emerging political truths that are far greater than the conflicts themselves...

1.    We NOW live in a time in history when NO ONE NATION in this world ever really acts ALONE.

2.    Whatever political action a nation takes, that action in some way AFFECTS ALL THE OTHER NATIONS of the world!

3.    ACTS OF VIOLENCE tend to instantly polarize the politics of nations.

Although the heads of governments have different names, and the languages these leaders speak differ dramatically, the deep political problems that tie one nation to another are rapidly bringing us into a ONE-WORLD POLITICAL SYSTEM.

Libya is but the latest example of that emerging system.

On the surface, the tiny, undeclared war between Libya and the United States seems historically insignificant.

President Reagan demonstrates that even the actions of a distant land are now intimately locked to our lives.

Libya is a small nation, and the United States could easily dwarf that country in a full-scale military operation.

But, the conflict is not limited to Libya and the United States!

Day by day, we live in a political world where the actions of one man, even a "mad dog," will dramatically and intimately affect THE ENTIRE WORLD.

Because Britain allowed the United States to launch U.S. attack planes from her British bases, that nation is now subject to condemnation by other nations:

—France, Italy, Spain, Greece and Russia quickly condemned both the United States AND Britain (for offering her air fields for the U.S. planes).

Seemingly diverse and fragmented nations have become POLITICALLY POLARIZED over this single military action on the part of the United States.

And it doesn't stop with America!

The nations supporting Libya also were forced by violence to become polarized.

The block of SOVIET UNION countries rallied as ONE VOICE politically in Libya's defense. The East Germans, Czechs, Poles and Yugoslavs ALL echoed the Soviet condemnation of the United States.

HERE'S THE ENDTIME POLITICAL TRUTH!

The nations of our world are becoming politically linked together as one chain. Pull even on the smallest link, and the entire chain of world events is affected!

Each day, we are coming closer to the political climate described in Revelation's prophecy:

These have ONE MIND, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

(Revelation 17:13)

That day is almost here!

Virtually in every corner of our world, nations are polarizing in "ONE MIND" over various political issues. The weak are looking to the strong for guidance, support and leadership.

Just look at the boiling pot in the Middle East.

All of the nations of the world seem to be scrambling to take sides on the complex issues unfolding. The acts of violence are serving to polarize their positions.

The National Security Council heathens are frustrated by the Middle East, and are now holding midnight sessions, searching for some sort of common solution.

But a political solution, devoid of military strength, is not likely to come. Here's why.

THE MIDDLE EAST BOILING POT IS OVERFLOWING!

•    ISRAEL is fighting for her right to exist as a free, Jewish state, and is looking to the power and the wealth of the United States for help.

•    The Palestinian Liberation Organization under Yasir Arafat vows the destruction of Israel, and seeks the assistance of allies such as RUSSIA.

•    SYRIA is in a violent civil war, and uses her friendship with Russia to strengthen her own land with military bases and missiles.

•    The SOVIET UNION is using the conflicts in the Middle East to improve ties with Syria and SOUTH YEMEN. Even JORDAN'S King Hussein turned to Russia when the United States declined to sell him weapons.

•    The United States is now in open conflict with LIBYA, and in heavy financial support with Israel.

•    EGYPT is racked with internal turmoil. Its oil income of $3 billion has been halved. Its foreign debt is now $31 billion!

Every country in the Middle East is racked with turmoil.

And as that turmoil increases, the nations involved in these conflicts are entering POLITICAL POLARIZATION with one of two main power sources:

1.    The United States

2.    Russia

In the fragmentation from the violent political acts, there is a ONE-WORLD UNITY that is starting to take place. Out of necessity and survival, an UNHOLY UNITY of strange political partners is born.

A one-world political system is starting to emerge.

Through these current crisis conflicts all over our planet, clear signs of endtime events are emerging:

And there shall be signs...upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity...

(Luke 21:25)

The nations of the world are confused and perplexed. End-time events pull these nations together, and pit them against each other, in struggles that seem to have NO WAY OUT!

This chart clearly shows that no nation is isolated in our world. More and more, even the actions of a small country such as Libya affect the emerging one-world system.

Wars NOW continue for years.

Borders NOW are locked in constant turmoil.

These conflicts WILL ultimately culminate in a ONE-WORLD POLITICAL SYSTEM.

Throughout this endtime series of events, war will become even more common, and eventually, a ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT will emerge:

And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

(Revelation 13:7)

In the midst of these terrible conflicts, more and more nations will compromise their own values for the sake of a ONE-WORLD POLITICAL SYSTEM.

For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich, through the abundance of her delicacies.

(Revelation 18:3)

We are already seeing the first signs of power being consolidated through international compromise into two major nations: the United States, and Russia.

Revelation tells us that eventually there will be only a ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT and that government will be governed by the Antichrist (Revelation 18:3).

In over 150 worldwide cities, 360,000 people unite as one political voice to protest nuclear power plants.

Many Christians would rather ignore this prophecy, since it clearly states the beast will have POWER, on this earth, for a short period of time.

For a brief moment, every nation, every language, every group, and every clan, will be under the beast. But that victory is only for a short period of time.

... for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, for he knoweth that HE HATH BUT A SHORT TIME.

(Revelation 12:12)

During this time, as dedicated members of God's Army, we can be prepared to resist!

We KNOW that God's seal of protection is upon those dedicated Christians, upon His People who are ready to serve Him, and are willing to obey Him.

Here's the promise God intends for His saints:

I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest KEEP them from the evil.

(John 17:15)

Yes, Jesus will keep you safe while the world is in turmoil, perplexity and conflict.

He will provide you with PROTECTION, AND He will provide you with POWER!

And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him WILL I GIVE POWER over the nations:

(Revelation 2:26)

During the time of great tribulation that will come upon the earth, God will KEEP His people strong and protected, just as He protected His people in Exodus, and he will give them POWER over the ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT SYSTEM.

The evil ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT of the beast will definitely collapse. THEN, we will see the final, complete victory for God's people!

...The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ, and he shall reign for ever and ever.

(Revelation 11:15)

Then, the one-world government of the beast will be permanently and forever replaced by the TRUE AND GODLY one-world government of God, a government headed by those who...

...had not worshiped 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.

(Revelation 20:4)

CHAPTER THREE

THE UNHOLY UNITY

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are NOT WRITTEN in the book of life of the Lamb, slain from the foundation of the world.

(Revelation 13:8)

Back in 1555, Pope Paul IV issued a papal edict, declaring that the Jews living in Rome must henceforth confine their quarters to a small ghetto as their official punishment for killing Jesus Christ.

During the 1940s, PERSECUTION CONTINUED as 2,091 Jews were deported from Rome by the Nazis. It was not until 1965 that the official status of Jews in Rome changed.

After four centuries of papal condemnation by the Catholic Church, the Second Vatican Council, meeting in 1965, finally declared that the Jews were no longer guilty, as a race, for the killing of Jesus Christ.

And, just a few days ago...—something happened that has never before occurred in the recorded history of man:

A CATHOLIC POPE WENT TO VISIT A JEWISH SYNAGOGUE!

What does this mean?

Many believe that the spiritual position of leadership held by a Catholic pope has so much spiritual importance in the world today that ultimately a Catholic pope will become the ONE-WORLD SPIRITUAL LEADER spoken about in Revelation 13:8:

And ALL THAT DWELL UPON THE EARTH SHALL WORSHIP HIM, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Whether or not the Catholic pope is divinely destined to fill that position is not a matter for this book. But, what is critical for you to understand is that this prophecy does tell us that SOMEONE, influenced by the forces of evil, WILL HOLD THAT POSITION!

BEWARE SPIRITUAL COMPROMISE!

Pope John Paul II and Chief Rabbi Elio Toaff united together— but not without serious compromise!

On April 13, 1986, Pope John Paul II exchanged greetings and speeches with Jewish rabbis at Rome's monumental main synagogue along the Tiber River, a mile from St. Peter's Basilica.

The specific reasons given for this historic visit were:

1.    He intended to fight against anti-Semitism.

2.    He intended to deepen understanding between Jews and Catholics, and

3.    He intended to help create a climate for the Vatican to formally recognize Israel.

Vatican officials even hinted that the Pope's recent actions "could spur visits by archbishops around the world to synagogues in their cities."

In this historic visit, Pope Paul II saluted the Jews, and said: You are our dearly beloved brothers, and, in a certain way, it could be said that you are our elder brothers.

The pope expressed the hope that his visit would be "a turning point in Christian-Jewish relations."

In a further attempt to appease the Jews at this service, Pope John Paul II stated:

Each of our religions wishes to be recognized and respected in its own identity.

At the end of his visit, the Pope made perhaps THE BIGGEST COMPROMISE of the day when he allowed a closing song with this main verse to be sung:

I believe with all my heart in the coming of the Messiah.

What does this simple verse spiritually signify?

In the name of church unity... the pope approved in ADVANCE OF THE MEETING a song that speaks of a coming Messiah...—despite the fact that Christians believe the MESSIAH HAS ALREADY COME in Jesus Christ!

In the name of church unity... the pope implied that the religion of the Jews had the same validity as Christian religions!

In the name of church unity...the pope referred to the non-believing Jews as "elder brothers."

Yes, the Jews and Catholics were, for a moment, UNITED.

Yes, the Jews have been historically abused by the Catholic Church, and it is time that some spiritual fences were mended.

But... SCRIPTURE WARNS of such compromise in the final days!

This know also, that IN THE LAST DAYS PERILOUS TIMES SHALL COME. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS, BUT DENYING THE POWER THEREOF: FROM SUCH TURN AWAY.

(II TIMOTHY 3:15)

When SPIRITUAL UNITY includes the price of forsaking the very foundation of Christianity that Jesus Christ IS the Messiah then it is AN UNHOLY UNITY, and vile in God's sight!

I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

(Revelation 3:15-16)

Even if the Catholics and Jews become "brothers" from the purest of motives if that UNITY demands a denial of Jesus Christ as Savior, then it is an unholy unity, "having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: FROM SUCH TURN AWAY.”

The HOLY UNITY God intends for the endtime hour is a unity without any compromise. There cannot be any UNITY without Jesus Christ at the center core.

Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

(Ephesians 4:13)

That's the Unity God wants for His people!

Christ warns us about the endtime church becoming like the church at Laodicea.

Homosexuals campaign for "all the rights" of society—including THE RIGHT TO PASTOR a church! Newsweek, Aug. 12, 1985 - Pg 21

On the surface, it seemed the church at Laodicea was doing just fine. They were receiving new members; they had a large and prosperous congregation.

BUT, they remained neutral on controversial matters!

So, Christ said He would spit them out of his mouth!

As the endtimes unfold, there is an UNHOLY UNITY starting to form in the Body of Christ.

Not just between the Jews and the Catholics.

But everywhere!

Many times you have seen prominent "Christian" evangelists go to Israel, pose with the Jewish leaders, and NEVER EVER mention the only point in Christianity that matters...—the Jews are nothing without Jesus Christ!

Our nation, today, is filled with Laodicean churches!

Men and women sit in filled pews needing personal ministry in their lives...needing to hear the truth that will set them free...and yet, they leave, unchanged.

TODAY...there are churches where avowed homosexuals are the official pastors. "Reverend" Troy Perry in Los Angeles is but one example.

TODAY...there are churches where divorce is just as easily accepted as a new pair of shoes.

The Catholic Church officially stands against divorces, and supposedly does not grant divorces to their members. Yet, they are ready to grant "annulments" to marriages that have lasted ten, fifteen, or fifty years, through a simple petition procedure. They have compromised their integrity on this matter.

TODAY...denominations are making major movements towards unity. The Catholics are not the only religious body seeking renewed ecumenical ties.

On September 8, 1982, all of the Lutheran denominations voted to merge.

In the summer of '82, the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church voted 571-118 in favor of plans to merge with the Presbyterian Church, healing a breach that has lasted since the Civil War.

Church unity is not wrong, but when it involves vital spiritual compromise, then it is repulsive in God's sight.

TODAY...The World Council of Churches is an attempt by man to UNIFY various religious organizations into a spirit of UNITY. Unfortunately, it has degenerated into a liberal political organization that elects to fund radical groups of activists in various parts of the world. This political involvement is becoming the major function of this "so-called" church organization.

The Methodist bishops just voted in New York to draft a pastoral letter denouncing the use of nuclear weapons and the doctrine of nuclear deterrence.

JESUS is our one message.

What good is the "right stand" on nuclear warfare if souls are going to hell?

Our ONLY UNITY must be our unity with the words of Apostle Paul:

For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

(I Corinthians 2:2)

THERE IS A SPIRIT OF RELIGIOUS UNITY IN THE WORLD—but it is only "... having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: FROM SUCH TURN AWAY."

MOST of these movements towards UNITY demand UNHOLY COMPROMISE.

It is time for God's people to develop their spiritual ears and eyes and discern the POWER of God in operation.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches...

(Revelation 2:17)

False prophets are everywhere!

The Mormon Church for the past several years has carried on an extensive advertising campaign, insisting that they too believe the very way Christians do... —maintaining that they believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God!

The Mormons now claim that we are "brothers." They now routinely witness from the King James Bible instead of their Book of Mormon.

These attempts to deceive Christians are even worse than compromise, since their actions are intentional and methodical.

The Mormons are deliberately misrepresenting doctrines and theological terms in order to lure uninformed Christians into their fold.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

To recognize the true endtime church amid the growing flood of false religions, YOU MUST KNOW that they first and foremost STAND FOR JESUS CHRIST as their Lord and Savior!

There can be no other center foundation stone.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life THROUGH JESUS CHRIST our Lord.

(Romans 6:23)

When Jesus Christ is their true center, then no compromise is possible!

He who is the Creator and the Word views compromise on Jesus Christ, and on His plan for our life, as intolerably distasteful. He will spew those compromises out of His mouth.

So, then, because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

(Revelation 3:16)

During these final days, God intends for all compromising churches to recognize their wretched condition and come to Him in repentance.

He desires for them to come to Him and RECEIVE His righteousness to replace the filthy rags of their own righteousnesses.

But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

(Isaiah 64:6)

Earlier in this book, we saw in the 49th Chapter of Genesis that Jacob told his sons "that which shall befall you in the last days.”

He warned his children about false unity.

He told them to stay away from those people and places who were not in agreement with their God.

Today, GOD'S PEOPLE MUST HEED THAT WARNING, and settle for only one single cry to bring about the TRUE one-world church:

Teach me thy way, O Lord; I will walk in the truth; UNITE MY HEART TO FEAR THY NAME.

(Psalm 86:11)

I must warn you, as a prophet of God, that those Christians during this great endtime harvest who do not know how to walk in the truth, who do not know how to unite their hearts with His heart... —those Christians will not be able to stand!

Learn to hear God's voice.

Grow to know God's will.

And you will receive from God.

Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein for the time is at hand.

(Revelation 1:3)

CHAPTER FOUR

THE KING FOR THE ACES!

In this book, you have clearly seen, through a prophet's eyes, three of the endtime events now unfolding in our world.

You NOW KNOW that those three events have a profound spiritual significance, and will eventually lead into... —A ONE-WORLD ECONOMY, A ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT, AND A ONE-WORLD CHURCH!

These three forces for evil will be united under the control and the power of "the beast" but only for a period of time.

Remember, the beast (Antichrist) is not the end of the prophecy!

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Jesus is coming soon, and God wants you to know His Endtime Plan! Jesus outlined six major things that are now unfolding, events He said will happen before He returns to gather His saints from earth (in Matthew 24:331):

1.    False Christs and strong deception (verses 5, 24)

2.    Wars and rumors of wars (verse 6)

3.    Famines (verse 7)

4.    Pestilence and earthquakes (verse 7)

5.    Persecution and tribulation (verses 910,21)

6.    Great signs in the heavens (verse 29)

There are other prominent signs of His coming manifesting themselves around the world today.

And, there are many more end-time signs also unfolding, or about to unfold, during this endtime hour:

•    Israel will "bud" like a rose (Isaiah 27:6)

•    Knowledge will be increased (Daniel 12:4)

•    Iniquity shall increase and abound (Matthew 24:12)

•    The love of many shall wax cold (Matthew 24:12)

•    Russia and its allies will attack Israel (Ezekiel 38:39)

•    Scoffers will arise (II Peter 3:3)

•    A great falling away (II Thessalonians 2:3)

•    Antichrist will be revealed (II Thessalonians 2:3)

•    The Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world (Matthew 24:14)

God WILL have an endtime people in these final minutes of spiritual history, and His people, His spiritual Israel, His chosen, anointed ones will enjoy an eternal Victory Celebration!

Here's God's promise for the final drama:

...Great and wonderful are thy deeds, O Lord God the Almighty! Just and true are thy ways, O King of the ages! Who shall not fear and glorify thy name, O Lord? For thou alone art holy. All nations shall come and worship thee, for thy judgments have been revealed.

(Revelation 15:3-4, RSV)

God will reign as the "KING" of the ages!

All nations will come and worship HIM!

Let this revelation from God STRENGTHEN you for the last days that lie ahead.

KNOW that it IS a day of victory for God's people, and no circumstance, no attack from the enemy can rob you of what God intends for your life!

BE WATCHFUL AND STRENGTHEN THE THINGS WHICH REMAIN... for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

(Revelation 3:2)

I've revealed three of the critical endtime events now unfolding so that you can BE BETTER PREPARED for God's total victory in your life.

But, let me warn you...

DO NOT meditate on the problems in the economy.

DO NOT become anxious about the world political situation.

DO NOT fret over the compromises in a particular church.

INSTEAD...

KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE SOON-COMING KING...JESUS!

God is faithful to His Word, and He says He will take care of you.

I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father. Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession."

(Psalm 2:7-8, NIV)

These are the end-times, and God intends to have a special people. He intends to give you "the ends of the earth" for "your possession."

... Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall BE HIS PEOPLE, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

(Revelation 21:3)

THAT'S WHY.. we are experiencing an escalating harvest of souls, unlike any other time in our ministry.

This is the endtime, harvest time cycle.

THAT'S WHY...we have trained more Nationals in the last few years than in the first three decades of our ministry.

WE ARE GOD'S PEOPLE, living in the ENDTIME, HARVEST TIME CYCLE!

THAT'S WHY...we are "Building God an Army" of victorious soldiers—soldiers trained in spiritual warfare, soldiers able to pull down strongholds, soldiers who know how to defeat Satan by using the Battle Strategies of Jesus!

THAT'S WHY...God has birthed the Global Satellite Network so that we can multiply our efforts to reach the lost before Jesus comes.

Through His Holy Spirit, God is EMPOWERING His people to conquer ANY circumstances...

—financial, political, or spiritual.

UNITED IN JESUS CHRIST, WE SERVE THE SOON-COMING KING!

Sense the urgency of this hour.

You must begin to increase your time in worship, in prayer, in witnessing, and in studying God's Word.

You must PREPARE for His Coming!

The economic crisis is not at an end.

The political turmoil is not at an end.

The confusion in the religious system is not at an end.

But, the END will come.

Surely. Swiftly.

Certainly.

And then it will be too late.

So what we do for Jesus, we must do now! The END will come when...

... this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; AND THEN shall the end come.

(Matthew 24:14)

You know the endtime events.

You know the challenge.

Now, LET'S JOIN TOGETHER IN HOLY UNITY to defeat Satan and glorify our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

And, behold I come quickly, and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

(Revelation 22:12)

The supernatural faith of God is here, for YOU, during these end- time events.

But remember, the time is short.

And behold I come quickly, and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

(Revelation 22:12)

What you do, you must do now... so be prepared by striving to be faithful in your prayers, your daily Bible study, and your personal relationship with your God.

I love you more than words can say. You are part of God's chosen, breakthrough people, and He wants to UNITE US in a spirit of HOLY UNITY!

Thank you for joining with me to help reach the world for Jesus Christ.
