The point of this post is to bring truth hidden behind the veil of Catholic Doctrine. This is not about hatred at all, as we are to love one another no matter what.
Revelation 17 has many interpretations, one of which is related to the Catholic Church. I do not proclaim to understand the details in Revelation. Ask the Lord to reveal the truth.
Revelation 17
The Woman and the Scarlet Beast
1 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me: “Come, I will show you the judgment of the notorious prostitute who sits on many waters.
2 The kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and those who live on the earth became drunk on the wine of her sexual immorality.”
3 So he carried me away in the Spirit to a desert. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and 10 horns.
4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls. She had a gold cup in her hand filled with everything vile and with the impurities of her prostitution.
5 On her forehead a cryptic name was written:
BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE VILE THINGS OF THE EARTH.
6 Then I saw that the woman was drunk on the blood of the saints and on the blood of the witnesses to Jesus. When I saw her, I was greatly astonished.
The Meaning of the Woman and of the Beast
7 Then the angel said to me, “Why are you astonished? I will tell you the secret meaning of the woman and of the beast, with the seven heads and the 10 horns, that carries her.
8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up from the abyss and go to destruction. Those who live on the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast that was, and is not, and will be present again.
9 “Here is the mind with wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated.
10 They are also seven kings: Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he comes, he must remain for a little while.
11 The beast that was and is not, is himself an eighth king, yet he belongs to the seven and is going to destruction.
12 The 10 horns you saw are 10 kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they will receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour.
13 These have one purpose, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
14 These will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will conquer them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings. Those with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”
15 He also said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute was seated, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
16 The 10 horns you saw, and the beast, will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked, devour her flesh, and burn her up with fire.
17 For God has put it into their hearts to carry out His plan by having one purpose and to give their kingdom to the beast until God’s words are accomplished.
18 And the woman you saw is the great city that has an empire over the kings of the earth.”
“Revelation: The Bride, The Beast & Babylon” — this movie gives some historic facts about the Catholic Church and tries to relate it to Revelation. They talk about the Early Catholic Church and all of the false doctrines they established. They also talk about Pagan Worship now being part of Catholic beliefs and “The Massacre” of people who refused to follow the rules aka “Great Inquisition”. Many other parts of revelation are talked about. They even talk about great persecution of early true believers by the Romans. They also talk about how the Early Catholic Church renamed existing statues that were constructed for Pagan Worship. The Worship of Mary comes from the Pagan worship depicted in the statue of Isis “The Mother Of All Gods”. Discussion about how the Catholic Church twisted the Last Supper aka Communion into believing a priest performs a “mystical” ceremony to transform the wafers and wine into the actual body and blood of Jesus Christ! More information how they turned the Sabbath from Saturday (Sundown on Friday to Sundown on Saturday) to Roman Sunday (the day of the Sun — worship of Sun God).

Very good post and also very timely! This “hold” of the “mother church” ……….is easy to see why those ignorant of this are being pulled by the evil one deeper into deception. Even if they have negative things to say about the church/pope, I am seeing many still defend it 😦

Someone shared this interesting prophetic warning with me — (Ask the Lord for greater discernment, as there are people on this forum that are caught up in false doctrines like pre-tribulation rapture which is not based on scripture — pray that the Lord opens their eyes).

I just read an article about churches being replaced by mosques in France at an unprecedented scale of rapidity.
We are seeing a pattern here that is spreading globally.
Soon i suspect within years there will only small enclaves of believers or individuals left.
A veritable who is who that has not bent their knee to Baal. As also a gut feeling most traditional churches are spiritually dead. I can get more out of reading a few posts here than several sundays of church here in my hometown.
The number of gentiles is running full soon i expect and the beastsystem will roll out in full force led by pomp and public good deeds as the pope is doing.
But the the one world religion will get its start with an catholic and moslem unification and cooperation. The mark is in the air! But it will leave many traditional catholics looking for the gospel!

Zechariah 14
A day of the Lord is coming when your plunder will be divided in your presence. I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle. The city will be captured, the houses looted, and the women raped. Half the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city. Then the Lord will go out to fight against those nations as He fights on a day of battle. On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which faces Jerusalem on the east. The Mount of Olives will be split in half from east to west, forming a huge valley, so that half the mountain will move to the north and half to the south. You will flee by My mountain valley, for the valley of the mountains will extend to Azal. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah.
Then the Lord my God will come and all the holy ones with Him. On that day there will be no light; the sunlight and moonlight will diminish. It will be a day known only to Yahweh, without day or night, but there will be light at evening.
On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea, in summer and winter alike. On that day Yahweh will become King over all the earth—Yahweh alone, and His name alone. All the land from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem will be changed into a plain. But Jerusalem will be raised up and will remain on its site from the Benjamin Gate to the place of the First Gate, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses. People will live there, and never again will there be a curse of complete destruction. So Jerusalem will dwell in security.
This will be the plague the Lord strikes all the peoples with, who have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths. On that day a great panic from the Lord will be among them, so that each will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will rise against the other. Judah will also fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected: gold, silver, and clothing in great abundance. The same plague as the previous one will strike the horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the animals that are in those camps.
Then all the survivors from the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the Lord of Hosts, and to celebrate the Festival of Booths. Should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of Hosts, rain will not fall on them. And if the people] of Egypt will not go up and enter, then rain will not fall on them; this will be the plague the Lord inflicts on the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Booths. This will be the punishment of Egypt and all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Booths.
On that day, the words HOLY TO THE LORD will be on the bells of the horses. The pots in the house of the Lord will be like the sprinkling basins before the altar. Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of Hosts. Everyone who sacrifices will come and take some of the pots to cook in. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the Lord of Hosts.

Earlier this year I read some research about the Vatican, specifically the Jesuits, and became convinced that organization is at the top of the pyramid in the earthly ranks of the kingdom of darkness, maybe alongside the Rothschilds and Rockefellers and European royal families. Pope Francis is the first Jesuit pope, which speaks for itself.

Vatican assassins by Eric John Phelps is your book to read. Can be found as ebook because physical copies are outrageously overpriced. You are lucky IF you find one for 150 dollars. I bought mine in the early 2000s When IT was still available as physical book and dont regret it!
But you are right they are top tier no doubt about that!

Yes, that’s the book, Vatican Assassins. For a fee you can also download the pdf directly from the author’s website.
Phelps is a bit kooky on other topics, but his information on the Vatican is eye-opening.

Last night Kelly and I went to the premiere of the documentary “Blood Road.” It’s about professional ultra-endurance athlete Rebecca Rush’s 1,200-mile mountain bike journey along the Ho Chi Minh Trail to try to find the crash site of her father’s jet that went down during the Vietnam War:

It was the most emotional film I’ve ever seen. I like extreme sports documentaries to begin with. And then the intense personal story and view of the war from both American and Vietnamese perspectives made it very powerful. Unintentionally, it became a rebuke and testimony against the American war machine, showing entire valleys still pock-marked today with bomb craters and lingering UXOs (unexploded ordinances) in the ground that have killed 60,000 people since the end of the war.
Rebecca, who is from Sun Valley, Idaho, spoke at the premiere, which was very cool. Highly recommend it if you get the chance.

Working on a new post about Apostasy and the coming destruction of Churches.
I just watched a video on this subject and it was very disturbing. Such filth being done in churches and you can barely tell the difference now between a Christian Church and Satanic Worship services. Quoting scripture does not make one a Christian.
