THE SEVEN-YEAR TRIBULATION EXPOSED
AS COUNTER-REFORMATION PROPAGANDA

Part I 

     Wrote the Apostle Paul: “(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)” Philippians 3:18,19

     The harm of life caused by sin accounts for every nation’s downfall through history. Due to this ever-present danger, GOD has seen fit to warn His children today through the Bible’s prophecies assigned to our generation.

     THEME OF APOSTASY: In Christ’s day, Jesus warned His disciples of the soon coming destruction of Jerusalem. They had no idea what stood on the threshold of their day. The Judaism of Christ’s day had become so corrupt that the whole system had to be swept away to revitalize GOD’S relationship with His wayward children. Jesus gave this warning in response to His disciples who urged His admiration for the temple of Herod who spared no expense making it appear extremely luxurious [as though GOD approved of the corrupt religion of Pharisaical Judaism (or what we call today, Orthodox Judaism)].

     To His disciples’ inquiry Jesus responded: “As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” Lu.21:6. This prophecy of Christ was drawn from Daniel 9:26: “the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.” Jesus then gave one of the most solemn prophecies of His earthly ministry, even warning how young mothers with babies would perish in the siege of Jerusalem (Matt.24:15-20). Even as Jesus was carrying His cross to Calvary He warned the women of this coming tragedy: “And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him. But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us. For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?” Lu.23:27-31.

     Every lesson of the LORD Jesus Christ is profoundly valuable. And all of His lessons, without exception, were drawn from the Old Testament Scriptures including His famous beatitudes. So, the more we become familiar with the Bible’s great stories with their accompanying lessons on faith the more we appreciate our LORD’S lessons guiding our souls to “everlasting life.”

     As the Pharisees’ religion hid from the Jews of Judaea the truths of Scripture that would provide for their nation’s safety, so today’s religion of papal Rome hides the very foundation of Bible truth from today’s Christian that provides for our nation’s safety. And we need to understand their underhanded sabotage of Scripture’s guidelines to maintain their exalted status among the world’s religions.

     Jesus used Daniel 9:26 as the proof text for His prophecy of Jerusalem’s destruction. But today, another insinuation of that verse is being given to the whole Christian world. And as a result, the church is being played the fool today, just as the disciples were in Christ’s day by a sinister commentary applied to that very verse that denies the words of Christ. And every Christian needs to know who is behind this deception. This brief overview will provide some insight on how important it is to have knowledge of the history of the Roman church, and how it lends to where we are today and where it is leading the Christian world.

     There are certain culprits behind the many deceptions that are taking place today: plans that are laid behind closed doors. And these historically ruthless deceivers of the whole Christian world are the Jesuit Order of the Roman Catholic Church. Little attention is paid to this priesthood today and how they and Talmudic Jews have united, and through this union literally run America’s government, finances, justice, and scholasticism. But historically, every Christian used to be well aware of their illicit schemes flooding the world with their evils during the counter-reformation. Their plots were so heinous that they have been banished from nations around the world. Even the pope disbanded them—for a time. But then came the United States of America. At this time the pope that disbanded them was ousted in 1798 and replaced with a pope who reinstated their authority. Thomas Jefferson wrote to John Adams of their threat to our fledgling nation of America: “Like you I fear the resurrection of the Jesuits.” But this is as Bible prophecy said it would be: that Rome would rule the world until the 2nd Advent of Christ Who comes to crush their iniquitous regime masquerading in virtue (Daniel, chapters 2 & 7). These two prophecies alone disqualify Rome entirely from GOD’S approbation.

     So, rather than examine their long list of atrocities from their attempt to murder King James and every Protestant legislator in England in 1605 to their satanic vow of induction recorded in Congress in 1913, let’s take a look at just one example of their theological influence in the world today and see how the whole Christian world is being cemented to the sins of Rome, and thus share the fate of Rome.

     The proof is made plain between Christ’s rendering of Daniel 9:26 & 27 and today’s commonly held view of those verses on which the Left Behind series promotes. The origin of today’s popular views of Bible prophecy goes back to the Jesuit, Francisco Ribera, in 1575, who devised a scheme to counter the Reformers unanimous view that the pope of Rome has always been and will always be the Great Antichrist of Bible prophecy, with his title, “Vicarius felii Dei” adding up to 666 in each of the Bible’s languages of Hebrew, Greek and Latin; thus fulfilling the verse: “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.” Rev.13:18.

     On this platform stood the entire Reformation movement. And the fact that every major denomination today now denies this foundation of prophetic interpretation they have surrendered the right to be called “Protestant.” Every Bible believing Christian needs to see how Rome has literally raped to this day the most important Prophecy of the Holy Bible: the very one that is assigned to prove Jesus Christ is Who He said He is. They removed the glory ascribed to Jesus in those verses by assigning those verses to their fabricated and fictitious “future Antichrist.”

     A little background is needed to see where we are today and where we are heading as a civilization. Our knowledge of history plays a huge role in understanding the cause and effect of the Bible’s prophecies concerning man’s destruction in this present world (as proven in Isaiah 24 and Jeremiah 4:23-28).

     After France’s General Berthier entered Rome in 1798 with a civil decree banished the pope from all civil authority (the same pope who had banished the Jesuits), the Catholic Church lay in straits. The lost ground of papal authority had to be recovered. The Jesuit priests had already established their foothold infiltrating universities as protestant professors and protestant seminaries as theologians to pervert the Bible's prophecies assigned to Rome, and thus remove from Scripture anything injurious to “His Holiness” the pope. Without this covert espionage against the Word of GOD, Rome would be so weakened so as to have little influence to continue as rulers over the Christian church. And the Bible prophesied she would rule until “the last day.”

     Enter the Rothschild bank of the Jews. In 1823 the war profiteering Rothschilds took over the Roman church’s finances. Strangely enough, a series of wars began with the Rothschild bank providing loans to both sides in each violent and bloody engagement. And by the year 1900 the Rothschild bank owned an estimated 50% of the world’s wealth. Now Rome had sufficient leverage to seize control of world affairs and shape the destiny of man. Combined with the banking profits from all of the wars and taxes from the 20th century the church of Rome now stands on the brink of global supremacy while standing in the shadows of church apostasy. They have instituted every popular belief in Bible prophecy held today concerning the secular nation of Israel, the secret rapture, the future Antichrist, the seven year tribulation, the Middle East as the center point for Armageddon (thus removing sin as the cause), Russia and China invading Israel, and 144,000 Jews who are said to finish the work of the Gospel commission.

     With limitless wealth and political influence at their disposal coupled with “that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world” (Rev.12:9), Rome is able to fulfill the prophecies of their own devising. But history proves that their many fabrications to corrupt Bible prophecy extend all the way back to the year 1575, when the Jesuit, Francisco Ribera first devised the seven-year tribulation doctrine, thus placing the great Antichrist of Bible prophecy in the future, and thus remove every prophecy of Rome’s crimes against humanity during the Dark Ages.

     So as we see the fulfillment of this prophetic forgery the whole Christian world will believe that GOD has been leading Rome and her nominal protestant daughters. In their staging of these schemes to exonerate the pope from the Bible's prophecies of his atrocities, Rome is perceived to be led of GOD.

Part II

     This is the great threat to Christ’s church today. But the Bible exonerates the great reformers! Not the pope! To restore the great reformers to their rightful place and verify their prophetic interpretation as Bible obedient we will compare Rome’s commentary on Daniel 9:26 & 27 that today is accepted as truth in nearly every Protestant church with the definitive words of Christ’s commentary on those same verses, and thus expose the lie that is being perpetrated against the Christian world.

Rome’s Rendering:

Daniel 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, “and shall have nothing” (NIV): and the people of the prince that shall come [THE ARMY SENT BY THE FUTURE ANTICHRIST] shall destroy the city and the sanctuary [JERUSALEM AND ITS TEMPLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE WHEN THE ANTICHRIST COMES TO POWER AND MAKES A TREATY WITH TODAY’S ISRAEL, BUT THEN RETURNS TO DESTROY ISRAEL]; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

Daniel 9:27 And he [THE COMING ANTICHRIST] shall confirm the covenant [HIS TREATY WITH TODAY’S ISRAEL] with many [THE JEWISH NATION] for one week [THE SEVEN YEAR TRIBULATION]: and in the midst of the week [3 1⁄2 YEARS INTO THE SEVEN YEAR TRIBULATION] he [THE COMING ANTICHRIST] shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease [BY BRINGING AN END TO THE SACRIFICIAL SYSTEM THAT ORTHODOX JUDAISM TODAY IS SET TO REESTABLISH], and for the overspreading of abominations he [THE COMING ANTICHRIST] shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate [THE ORTHODOX JEWS]."

Christ’s True Rendering of Daniel 9:26 cited in Matt.24:15-20; Lu.23:26-29:

Daniel 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks [IN THE 70TH WEEK (THE LAST 7 YEARS OF THE “SEVENTY WEEKS” PROPHECY)] shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself [BUT FOR THE SINS OF THE WORLD]: and the people of the prince that shall come [TITUS WITH HIS ROMAN ARMY] shall destroy the city and the sanctuary [JERUSALEM AND ITS TEMPLE IN 70 A.D. (Matt.24:15-20)]; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined [WHEN JERUSALEM WAS SURROUNDED BY THE ROMAN ARMY AND ALL THE JEWS ASSEMBLED THERE FOR THE FEAST WERE STARVED INTO SUBMISSION. OF THIS DEPLORABLE EVENT JESUS CHRIST WARNED HIS DISCIPLES, AND NOT ONE CHRISTIAN DIED IN THE SIEGE ACCORDING TO THE HISTORIAN JOSEPHUS WHO RECORDED THE DESPERATE MEASURES THAT SELFISH MEN TOOK TO SURVIVE].

Christ’s True Rendering of Daniel 9:27 as reflected in Matthew 26:53,54; John 12:27

And he [JESUS CHRIST] shall confirm the covenant [THE PROMISE OF SALVATION MADE WITH THE FAMILY OF ADAM] with many [THE JEWISH NATION] for one week [THE LAST SEVEN YEARS OF THE 490 YEAR PROPHECY]: and in the midst of the week [IN THE YEAR 31 A.D. (JUST 3 1⁄2 YEARS INTO HIS MINISTRY)] he [JESUS CHRIST] shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease [ONLY CHRIST COULD BRING AN END TO THE SACRIFICIAL SYSTEM INAUGURATED IN GENESIS 3:21 AND FORMALLY EXPANDED THROUGH THE MOSAIC LAW. AT THE DEATH OF CHRIST THE RENDING OF THE TEMPLE VEIL BY AN UNSEEN HAND FULFILLED THE SACRIFICIAL SYSTEM, THUS EFFECTING ITS END (MATT.27:51)], and for the overspreading of abominations [THE SINS OF PHARISAICAL JUDAISM] he [JESUS CHRIST] shall make it desolate [DISANUL THE CORRUPT JEWISH RELIGION], even until the consummation [THE DEATH OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST], and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate" [THE APOSTATE JEWS WITH THE DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM AND ITS TEMPLE IN 70 A.D].

     IN CONCLUSION: The whole history of papal Rome centers on removing the authority of Christ from the Earth and substituting themselves in His place. This is proven by their relationship with the Ten Commandment Law. The 2nd Commandment was removed entirely, thus making the 3rd the 2nd, the 4th the 3rd, and so on: then dividing the 10th into two [Baltimore Catechism No.3]. But in removing it they have removed the word “mercy” from GOD’S Holy Law. Thus, Rome has amputated GOD’S “mercy” from “the gospel of the kingdom:” the mercy that could only be provided when Jesus laid down His Life on the Cross of Calvary.

     And the 4th Commandment has been substituted with the oldest tradition of pagan idolatry: Sunday sacredness. But again, in doing this Rome has removed the authority of Christ as Creator of Heaven and Earth. Over 800 verses of Scripture declare Christ as Creator and the “Everlasting Father” of all (Isa.9:6). They have literally removed Christ from GOD’S salvation and have substituted their own salvation apart from Jesus Christ while masquerading under the “Christian” Name.

     So, with the tens of millions of innocent Catholics providing the immense charity and care for their fellow man, where they are living up to the Light they have received and follow the Holy Spirit in regards to that Light, lurking behind the scenes of their heaven-led decency are the Jesuit priests who take that despicably inhumane vow, recorded in congress, and are as luciferian as any Satan worshipper. Their history is the most despicable of any religious sect through history.

     The good works of GOD-fearing Catholics are merely the means to gain the trust of the populous. But once the trust was gained, the indoctrination of hardening them in their ignorance of sin begins.

     Whatever church denomination one chooses to be baptized in, this is their public declaration of agreement with the doctrines of that church. So, before baptism, every Christian is called to be a Berean (Acts 17:11), to prayerfully examine the church doctrines to see if they obey or disobey the Ten Commandments, and if they live up to safe-Scripture guidelines as commanded by Jesus Christ (Matt.7:24,25), founded on the plain "Thus saith the LORD:" "To the law, and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." Isaiah 8:20.

     As the Jews and Romans stood united in the crucifixion of the LORD Jesus Christ, so the Jews and Romans stand united today to "crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to open shame" (Heb.6:6) in the person of His saints who are faithful to GOD and to The LORD Jesus Christ. Some of the most simple lessons of history have been lost on today’s generation. Nevertheless, OUR HISTORY IS OUR FUTURE: “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 any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.” Ecclesiastes 1:9-11
