The United Nations is currently organized as an organization whose charter is porous enough to allow it do anything it wants. However, the UN lacks the military and economic teeth necessary for it to act as a strong central government. This is by design. The UN was intended to be no more than to provide a cloak of legitimacy to rubber-stamp the actions of the "Hierarchy" and her corporate and political cronies, to their benefit and at our expense.

The occult networks of Mystery Babylon currently seduce key players in business and politics.The Bible predicts a two phase destruction of this system. The first phase involves a shift in the balance of power. The second phase involves the sudden liquidation of the world's wealth as Christ becomes visible in the clouds.

There is a fault line in the coalition of networks that comprise Mystery Babylon. The fault line is between the networks that descended from Plethon and those that did not. Plethon was taught the Babylonian Mysteries by Islamist Hermeticists. During the period of European dominance during the colonial period, European culture and political ideas were readily replicated all over the world, allowing Mystery Babylon to infiltrate globally.

The Dawn of the 21st Century is witnessing the relative decline of European power. There are two emerging blocs of power that are emerging. They would be East Asia and the Middle East. In East Asia, the traditional political narratives are gone, but in the Middle East they are strong. There are only two extant political narratives today that are outside of the Plethon Mystery Babylon matrix. They are the Judeo-Christian Libertarianism brought to us by John Knox, Samuel Rutherford, and others. The other is Islamism.

Judeo-Christian Libertarianism has been largely marginalized over the past 15 years or so as a result of the “Culture War” with Freudo-Marxism. The followers Freudo-Marxism Left have entered a marriage of convenience with Islamists, forcing Judeo-Christian Libertarians to fight a war on two fronts. This coupled with co-belligerence with Neo-Conservatives, resulted in Judeo-Christian Libertarians being weakened and marginalized.

Islamism is the predominant political narrative throughout most of the Middle East. Beneath the thin veneer of Islamic fundamentalism is a militaristic Hermeticism. Rev 17:16-17 describes how Islamists destroy Mystery Babylon

“And the ten horns which you saw on the beast, these will hate the harlot, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire. For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled” Rev 17:16-17

The ten horns are ten nations who give their power to the United Nations beast, and specifically, the antichrist. Scriptural Proof that an emerging Islamist Empire is the ten horns involves first proving that Gog is the Antichrist, and then proving that his allies are Islamist, or soon to be Islamist, countries.

Gog is the Antichrist

Ezekiel 38-39 reveals the end times invasion of Israel by an international coalition of nations led by a leader named here as Gog. The key to identifying Gog as the antichrist is to show that the Ezekiel war ends with the battle of Armageddon on the Great Day of God's wrath. This can be done by comparing Ezekiel with other passages known to refer to Armageddon. The comparison between Rev 16 and Ezekiel 38-39 will prove that Gog is the Antichrist.

These Judgments are on the Day of the Lord. They are against ALL nations, indicating that the second phase of the war has begun. Compare the following two passages for similarities. Both the Final battle against Gog and the Armageddon involves many common events including the following:

1. An earthquake so severe that a leveling of all of the world’s mountains and cities occurs.

2. Great hailstones falling out of the sky

3. The gathering of armies from all over the earth

4. Raining down blood upon the earth, contaminating all waters

5. Inflicting pestilence – persistent sores

6. Scorching people with fire

7. Birds of carrion invited to feed on the dead bodies of men and animals.

An earthquake so severe that it levels all of the world’s mountains and cities occurs.
and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. AND THE GREAT CITY WAS DIVIDED INTO THREE PARTS, AND THE CITIES OF THE NATIONS FELL: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. AND EVERY ISLAND FLED AWAY, AND THE MOUNTAINS WERE NOT FOUND.	Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel; So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the MOUNTAINS SHALL BE THROWN DOWN, AND THE STEEP PLACES SHALL FALL, AND EVERY WALL SHALL FALL TO THE GROUND
Revelation 16:18-20	Ezekiel 38:19-20

Great hailstones falling out of the sky
AND THERE FELL UPON MEN A GREAT HAIL OUT OF HEAVEN, EVERY STONE ABOUT THE WEIGHT OF A TALENT: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great	And I will plead against Him with PESTILENCE AND WITH BLOOD; And I will rain upon, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and GREAT HAILSTONES, fire, and brimstone
Revelation 16:21	Ezekiel 38

The gathering of armies from all over the earth
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	AND I WILL CALL FOR A SWORD AGAINST HIM THROUGHOUT ALL MY MOUNTAINS, SAITH THE LORD GOD: EVERY MAN'S SWORD SHALL BE AGAINST HIS BROTHER.
Revelation 16:13-14	Ezekiel 38:21(God owns all mountains)

Raining down blood upon the earth, contaminating all waters
AND THE SECOND ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE SEA; AND IT BECAME AS THE BLOOD OF A DEAD MAN: AND EVERY LIVING SOUL DIED IN THE SEA. And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became BLOOD. And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.	And I will plead against Him with PESTILENCE AND WITH BLOOD; And I will rain upon, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and GREAT HAILSTONES, fire, and brimstone
Revelation 16:3-6	Ezekiel 38:22

Inflicting pestilence – persistent sores
And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. AND THE SECOND ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE SEA; AND IT BECAME AS THE BLOOD OF A DEAD MAN: AND EVERY LIVING SOUL DIED IN THE SEA.	And I will plead against Him with PESTILENCE AND WITH BLOOD; And I will rain upon, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and GREAT HAILSTONES, fire, and brimstone
Revelation 16:2-3	Ezekiel 38:22

Scorching people with fire
And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire...	And I will plead against Him with PESTILENCE AND WITH BLOOD; And I will rain upon, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and GREAT HAILSTONES, fire, and brimstone
Revelation 16:8	Ezekiel 38:22

Birds of carrion are invited to feed on dead bodies of men and animals
And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, COME AND GATHER YOURSELVES TOGETHER UNTO THE SUPPER OF THE GREAT GOD; THAT YE MAY EAT THE FLESH OF KINGS, AND THE FLESH OF CAPTAINS, AND THE FLESH OF MIGHTY MEN, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.	And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; SPEAK UNTO EVERY FEATHERED FOWL, AND TO EVERY BEAST OF THE FIELD, ASSEMBLE YOURSELVES, AND COME; GATHER YOURSELVES ON EVERY SIDE TO MY SACRIFICE THAT I DO SACRIFICE FOR YOU, EVEN A GREAT SACRIFICE UPON THE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL, THAT YE MAY EAT FLESH, AND DRINK BLOOD. YE SHALL EAT THE FLESH OF THE MIGHTY, AND DRINK THE BLOOD OF THE PRINCES OF THE EARTH, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan. And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
Revelation 19:17-18	Ezekiel 39:17-19

Rev 16-19 describes the Great Day of God's wrath that ends at Armageddon when Jesus Christ destroys the antichrist, who leads the world's armies into battle. There are numerous events that match with great detail Ezekiel's description of God's wrath against Gog: There is an earthquake in Israel that starts a chain reaction that all mountains and all urban structures (cities, walls) to collapse. There will also at this time fall from the sky blood, fire, and hail. This battle will result in many dead soldiers. In both Ezekiel and Revelation God invites birds of carrion to feast on the dead bodies.

The detailed match between the events of Rev 16-19 and Ezekiel 38-39 proves at least that the final battle in the Ezekiel invasion where God destroys Gog is the same battle as the Battle of Armageddon in the Great Day of God's wrath against Gog. This identifies Gog as the Antichrist and the regional coalition that he uses to start the war as the ten horns.

The Ten Horns Identified as Islamist Nations

The ten horns are the ten plus nation coalition that puts the Antichrist into power. They join forces to empower the Antichrist to overthrow the Great Whore to accomplish a major shift in the balance of power in the world-system.

“And the TEN HORNS which you saw on the beast, these will hate the harlot, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire. For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose, TO BE OF ONE MIND, AND TO GIVE THEIR KINGDOM TO THE BEAST, until the words of God are fulfilled” Revelation 17:16-17 NKJV

In the last chapter, I wrote that the Gog-led invasion in Ezekiel is the same as the Anti-Christ led invasion at Armageddon. If Gog is the Antichrist, then the alliance of nations that united with Gog is the ten horns. This is the key to identifying the nations instrumental in setting up the beast system.

I shall not lay an emphasis on putting a perfect correspondence of exactly ten nations to ten horns. There are several reasons for it. One remote possibility is that ten should be taken as a figure and that there may be many more nations involved. It is also very likely that ten nations will lead the coalition but that it will be perceived as much larger coalition-ten nations and an unknown number of satellite nations. This is where the warning against leaning to hard on tying interpretation to current events would apply. The third is that the region involved is not very stable. The map of this region could dramatically change in just a few years.

This article will identify these nations by identifying the ethnic groups and lands mentioned in Ezekiel and drawing conclusions from that. Here is the passage in Ezekiel that list the actors in this war:

“And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy face against GOG, THE LAND OF MAGOG, THE CHIEF PRINCE OF MESHECH AND TUBAL, and prophesy against him, And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords: PERSIA, ETHIOPIA, and LIBYA with them; all of them with shield and helmet: GOMER, AND ALL HIS BANDS; the house of TOGARMAH OF THE NORTH QUARTERS, AND ALL HIS BANDS: and many people with thee.” Ezekiel 38:1-6 KJV

The land of Magog There is a great deal of evidence that Magog was the ancestor of the Scythians. The Scythians are the ancestors of the Russians. However, Magog is the one and only power that is named by land. It is the occupants of the land of Magog, not necessarily the people of Magog that invade Israel.

At the time of Ezekiel's writing the Scythians-the descendants of Magog occupied a wide area in central Asia167. They occupied land from the Ukraine in the west to Caspian sea in the east. Gog is indentified as coming from this land. This area is now occupied by Ukraine, The Caucasus (Southern Russia, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan ), Kazakstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and possibly western China and western Mongolia.

While Magog is identified as the land that Gog rules, Meshech and Tubal are identified as the people groups he leads. Meshesh and Tubal were sons of Japheth. Their descendants eventfully migrated into the land of Magog.168

Persia is modern day Iran169. This one is certain. What is not certain is the extent of Iran's influence. Iran at the time of the invasion may include Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. When American and troops leave Iraq and Afghanistan prematurely Iran will fill the void and Iran already controls Syria through its involvement in Hezbollah. They may be satellites or part of Iran.

Biblical Ethiopia was Cush170 which was south of Egypt and corresponds to northern Sudan. Sudan is an Islamist stronghold now committing genocide of Christians and would be eager to become involved in invading Israel. Biblical Ethiopia might also include other nations around the horn of Africa who descended from Cush, including Somalia and modern Ethiopia.

Libya (Phut) is… Libya171. Libya has had an Anti-American government for years. While Ghadafy is currently seeking peace with America that could swiftly change the moment the government changes hands or if the balance of power changes. Libya could easily revert back to hostility if the government senses American weakness or that she may find protection in by powerful enemies of America. The establishment of Gog's coalition may very well be just the situation that draws Libya into the conflict.

The descendants of Gomer are likely Eastern Europeans, which are increasingly becoming a hotbed for Islamist terrorism172.

Togarmah is the ancestor of the Turkic peoples of the world173. The phrase 'of the north quarters' means the northern settlements. This refers to the Turkic areas of central Asia: Kazakstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. It is uncertain whether the phrase 'all his bands' includes Turkey, the world's most populous Turkish nation, or just the Turkish nations farther north.

All of these areas are either controlled by Islamists or soon will be if trends continue. An Islamist ten nation alliance will back a head of state somewhere in the Caucasus in what is first a regional alliance against Israel. This alliance becomes the basis of campaign to install this leader as Secretary-General of the United Nations. This leader transforms the United Nations into the dreaded dragonous Beast and he becomes the coming the global dictator commonly known as the Antichrist.. This will be the final form of the Babylon Beast System which Christ Jesus will destroy at his coming.

The Islamic Madhi is the Anti-christ. Historic trends, clues given in Bible prophecy and a comparison of Biblical and Islamic eschatology will reveal that the Antichrist will first appear as the Mahdi, the Islamic Messiah. This so-called Mahdi will appear to be a good Muslim but He is really an occultist He will eventually be revealed as Satan in the flesh. He will be followed by most of the world for a season but the righteous will resist him and embrace God's true Messiah.

Islam is gaining ground in Europe and Russia as well as numerically throughout the world. There are 1.4 billion Muslims throughout the world. In Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Europe there are demands upon the legal system to accommodate Islamic law or sharia law by setting up religious courts. Islam is the best represented religion at the United Nations.

In order to set up the Mahdi as the antichrist there must a widely distributed foundation of support. While it is not necessary for the Mahdi to be a true Muslim it is necessary for him to be perceived as such. The growth of both Islamic populations and the existence of a unified Islamic empire will provide the power base that will enable the Mahdi to become the Antichrist.

Another trend is that a growing number of Muslims are being radicalized. Currently only about 10% of the world's Muslims are of the radical type or otherwise politically motivated to overthrow the earth. Europe currently has a policy that weakens peaceful Muslims while viewing radicals as a protected class. They are fiercely rushing to ban women from wearing viels174 (i.e. the Netherlands175) while prosecuting those who warn about the Islamist threat176 for committing hate speech against Islamist radicals.

Gog is Mahdi and the Antichrist. The nations that set up the beast system are now predominately Islamic. From these nations there will emerge an Islamist Empire. This empire is a regional caliphate ruling from Western Europe to Pakistan. This Islamic empire is the ten horns that install Gog as the antichrist. This regional Islamic Empire will use their votes and influence at the United Nations to install the Mahdi as Secretary-General of the United Nations. As the antichrist, The Mahdi will turn the United Nations into the Final Beast, This will be a worldwide Islamist empire.

The Antichrist does not rise through overwhelming military power as some believe. He uses a minimal of military power. He uses propaganda to trick people into believing he is all powerful.

“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. AND THEY WORSHIPPED THE DRAGON WHICH GAVE POWER UNTO THE BEAST: AND THEY WORSHIPPED THE BEAST, SAYING, WHO IS LIKE UNTO THE BEAST? WHO IS ABLE TO MAKE WAR WITH HIM? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 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. 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 13:3-8 KJV

The text doesn't say that no one could "... make war ..." against the beast, but that people would say that no one would be able to make war against the beast. The beast is given power to make war against the saints only after he fools people into believing he is all powerful, not before. The Antichrist gains overwhelming military power by tricking the nations of the world into giving it to him. Daniel 8:8-25 describes how Satan is working in the world through the antichrist system or the little horn. Satan seek to put install a world leader through sinister schemes.

“Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven. And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them... ...And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, A KING OF FIERCE COUNTENANCE, AND UNDERSTANDING DARK SENTENCES, SHALL STAND UP. AND HIS POWER SHALL BE MIGHTY, BUT NOT BY HIS OWN POWER: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. AND THROUGH HIS POLICY ALSO HE SHALL CAUSE CRAFT TO PROSPER IN HIS HAND; AND HE SHALL MAGNIFY HIMSELF IN HIS HEART, AND BY PEACE SHALL DESTROY MANY: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.” Daniel 8:8-10,23--25 KJV

New King James Version translates "dark sentences" as "sinister schemes" The man of sin is not installed by his own power but by scheming to manipulate the power of others He will launch craft schemes. He will use "peace" as a weapon of war. (i.e. The Antiwar movement) He will use tolerance as a means to punish those He refuses to tolerate (i.e. speech codes ) This is confirmed in the New Testament.

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

“For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, 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, AND WITH ALL DECEIVABLENESS OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IN THEM THAT PERISH; BECAUSE THEY RECEIVED NOT THE LOVE OF THE TRUTH, THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED. AND FOR THIS CAUSE GOD SHALL SEND THEM STRONG DELUSION, THAT THEY SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

2 Thessalonians 2:3-12 KJV

The Antichrist's schemes will be effective because most people do not love the truth. In their thinking truth is relative and subordinate to the situations, perspectives, and prejudices. Without an anchor for their thoughts, their minds can be manipulated by schemes, because they do not have a foundation for rational thought they cannot spot counterfeit facts, counterfeit (or satanic) miracles, nor can the discern the logical fallacies inherent in schemes. When people see the Satanic miracles and hear Satan's propaganda they will be given over to be deceived. When they see the Mahdi-Antichrist or the counterfeit Jesus command fire to come down from heaven among other things, the will say of him"...Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him? ..."

The Mahdi will rise to power through propaganda and schemes as the antichrist does. Modern day Islamists learned both their propaganda techniques and much of its content from the Nazis. They are currently infiltrating forums of various Leftist groups177 posing as good liberals and putting out anti-war, antigovernment propaganda. It is the Islamists who framed 911178 as a government conspiracy in spite of the fact that Osama bin Laden has the technical skills and connections179 to perform everything the government conspiracy theories allege.

The slickest piece of propaganda that the Mahdi and his counterfeit Jesus will use is Islamic eschatology180. Islamic eschatology is an anti-parallel to Bible prophecy. As Bible end-time prophecies are literally fulfilled concerning the Antichrist and the False Prophet are literally fulfilled the so-called Mahdi will pass these off as fulfillments of Islamic prophecy concerning the Mahdi and the Islamic Jesus8. Islamic eschatology will be used to trick the world to supporting and ultimately worship the Antichrist.

Comparative Eschatology Reveals that the Mahdi is the antichrist. A comparison of Christian and Islamic eschatology shows that the Mahdi is the. The good guys of Islamic eschatology are the bad guys in Christian eschatology. Islamic eschatology covers an end-times story similar to that of Judeo-Christian prophecy but from the opposing perspective. The Antichrist and false prophet, portrayed in the Bible as the human archenemy of God, is portrayed as a hero and man of God in Islam.

This is best understood by taking the three main characters in Islamic end-times prophecy in context. The Mahdi is Islam's messiah figure. He is assisted by the Muslim Jesus. The Muslims will claim that He is Jesus Christ but this false Jesus will repudiate Christianity and wage war against Jews and Christians. This Muslim Jesus will look "... like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon... (Rev 13:11-17).' The Islamic Jesus is the false prophet. As the false prophet does miracles, points to the Antichrist, glorifies the Antichrist and causes the world to worship and pledge allegiance to the Antichrist by taking the mark of the beast- so the Islamic Jesus will do satanic miracles, glorify the Mahdi and cause the world to worship and pledge allegiance to the Mahdi by taking a mark of prostration.

The villain of Islamic eschatology is called the Dajjal. Islamic prophecy gives a very fanciful and not realistic description of the Dajjal. Muslims believe that he will be blind in one eye, with a fingernail protruding out of the blind eye. There are however two characteristics of the Dajjal that are significant here. He will claim to be Allah (God) and that he is the Jewish Messiah. This identifies the Dajjal with the real Jesus Christ that Jews and Christians know.

The Antichrist will come to power by claiming to be al Mahdi. He will use Islamic eschatology to deceive the world into pledging their allegiance to him. He will eventually claim God and demand worship.(Christian and Islamic objections notwithstanding) He will then, in the name of Islam, launch the most evil reign of terror the world has ever seen. The wickedness and atrocities is so bad the Jesus Christ the Jewish-Christian Messiah and deliverer of Israel will return to stop the madness. He will destroy the Caliphate and send the Mahdi-Antichrist and the false Islamic Jesus alive into the Lake of Fire.
