Here to a limited extent five I convey us to the present day and furthermore come back to that first century singular Simon Magus whom I specified from the Book of Acts to some extent one.
To some degree four I cleared out it with Babylon - that Great City on fire and the vendors of the world deploring her fall and pulverization. (If you don't mind note I will compose a different article on "That Great City" soon the same number of 'specialists' wrongly believe it's Jerusalem.) Hang on a moment, Babylon without a doubt doesn't exist in an exacting sense; it was crushed by the Persians a large number of years back, would it say it wasn't? Truly obviously however in the meantime the soul of the picture of Babylon was not pulverized, and as effectively demonstrated by the coherence of the iron in King Nebuchadnezzar's picture, it is Rome that is presently current Babylon. In the event that we recall, the picture is a Babylonian picture not a Persian picture nor a Greek picture and not even a Roman picture, however Rome is the fourth and last portrayal and portrayal of this Babylonian picture so the City of Rome which incorporates the Vatican is profoundly Babylon. This 21st century Babylon/Rome has another vassal realm as expressed to some degree four - The EU, as of late extended to twenty seven country state individuals. It now extends from Ireland on the Atlantic Ocean in the west to Bulgaria on the Black Sea in the east, with a populace moving toward five hundred million. Turkey is likewise quick to join and with another hundred million individuals that is a major domain surely.
Individuals outside and within the EU keep on mocking it on account of all the national in-battling and self image flexing that drags it down and keeps it down. It's baffled and spoiled profoundly with endemic defilement at the most abnormal amounts. All things considered, it is Babylon's Demonic Empire so what else would it be a good idea for us to anticipate? Added to that, there is no majority rule government. Every single real choice are made by unelected officials and there is a national bank where again all budgetary choices are made away from public scrutiny. How totalitarian and Babylonian/Roman is all that? All new Babylon needs now is another alluring 'Lord Nebuchadnezzar' - a Hitler, Mussolini or Napoleon to join it, lead it and give it capable domain status by and by, and after that watch out for this occasion is practically around the bend.
Presently as a result of the general stigmatizing worldwide and inner perspective of the EU/New Babylonian Empire, its inevitable ascent to power will take the world and a large number of Europeans totally unsuspecting. As quick as socialism crumbled in Europe so the substantially quicker ascent of New Babylon will blow individuals' mind. Hitler's ascent to control was quick yet that will be appeared to be snail's pace when contrasted with the transient ascent with energy of Babylon's new Emperor. The general population of the world will be shocked and in wonder of him and his new realm, and like King Nebuchadnezzar, will charge all to bow down and adore his new picture through getting the sign of the brute in either their hands or their brows. The main individuals who won't bow down and won't get his check will be True Christian adherents - The Elect, those browsed previously the establishment of the earth, those loyal and genuine children and girls of God.
Alright, back to that Simon Magus person. In Acts 8 we read of him in extremely negative conditions in reality, as he tries to buy The Holy Spirit from the Apostle Peter. He had a place with, and was a joined individual from, the Mystery of Iniquity as said by Paul in 2 Thess 2:7. Notice how it's about Mysteries!! Presently this present Simon's shrewd and profane act, in itself, uncovers a soul - a soul of the Devil. This soul is the soul of the adoration for cash or better, squalid lucre. Later on, it would dependably be cash that was gotten through manipulative, merciless, beguiling, unscrupulous or even criminal ways and that would be the recognizing indication of the association that Simon Magus would help found. The future working of an overall association that Simon Magus and those like him would set up. No doubt about it this Simon Magus was had of the soul that established the grimy earth expansion to the Babylonian picture - the Roman Catholic/Eastern Orthodox religions that purchase and offer 'salvation'. These were and still are religions with cash, influence and overall impact and religions with religious pioneers that couldn't give a hurl as to where the cash starts; including the controlled hardship and neediness of the a huge number of those that provide for it.
This is the reason the character of Simon Magus the magician in Acts is so imperative in the distinguishing of Babylon or the Mystery of Iniquity around then in history i.e. the primary century. This Simon was an alchemist, a double crosser of the general population and a big cheese. As a magician, similar to the individuals who sucked up to King Nebuchadnezzar, he was a scoundrel and swindler (Herbert W Armstrong). It likewise implies he was a smooth talker, alluring and persuasive (The Pope) - individuals tuned in to him so he was a foe of the Apostles in their central goal as representatives for The Word of God - The Lord Jesus Christ. This Simon, needed to purchase salvation and the association he helped found has been promoting or purchasing and offering 'salvation' from that point onward.
Here is another essential Truth. All factions and numerous groups or girls of the Mother of Harlots are ruled by the soul of the affection for dingy lucre. Simply do a little research and you will discover they are altogether polluted with same brush; extremely undercover about their funds. Armstrong and his Worldwide Church of God, wasn't the just a single; JW's, Mormons/LDS's, Moonies, SDA's they're all the same. There are additionally numerous sections (Demon-inations) that are run and sorted out on an adoration for cash establishment and are, as a general rule, simply little factions themselves. I know, to my disgrace, I've been there and I've worn all their profane tee shirts. Being there however was all piece of the expectation to learn and adapt; we are, after all - witnesses and we ought to gain from what we witness.
We'll now proceed onward, as stop of the negative stuff, we should return now to Daniel 2:34-35 Thou sawest till that a stone was removed without hands, (imagery for The Chief Cornerstone - The Lord Jesus Christ) which destroyed the picture upon his feet that were of iron and earth, and brake them to pieces. 35 Then was the iron, the mud, the metal, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and wound up noticeably like the waste of the mid year threshingfloors; and the breeze diverted them, that no place was found for them: and the stone that destroyed the picture turned into an awesome mountain, and filled the entire earth (Brackets mine).
All the above occasions must occur before The Lord Jesus Christ returns including the characteristic of the monster whereby unless individuals get this check they won't have the capacity to purchase or offer merchandise of any portrayal. Once more, another indication of the end however His great Kingdom must come - it's inescapable and nobody can stop it. How would I know this? Basic, every one of the predictions written in Daniel 2 have happened separated from those only in front of us so I know they will happen and the new 'Ruler Nebuchadnezzar' and his New Babylon will be crushed, nay pounded, into refuse and diverted on the breeze - gone until the end of time.
Here too we have more confirmation that the Kingdom of God will be here on this planet. The Stone is The Lord Jesus Christ and mountains are representative for countries or kingdoms and His Kingdom or mountain will fill the entire earth. One earth and one country managed by The Lord Jesus Christ with a little assistance from His siblings and sisters - The Elect.
