The One World Religion takes a step closer?

Most people when confronted with the words "One World Religion" will not have much of an inkling what you are talking about. Mention the New World Order and most people just start glazing over and think conspiracy theory, dismiss it as something that is not happening or will not happen in our times. But if you look beyond the mainstream news and look at credible sources that focus on such things, you realise that the chess board has been laid out, chess pieces are starting to move confirming the recently laid out 2030 Agenda Plan and people are not really noticing what is going on apart from those who are tuning into such things.....such as myself and a few others.

The One World Religion is one of the major parts of the New World Order that is forming before our very eyes

Where is the One World Religion mentioned in the Bible

In the Book of Revelation mainly in Chapter 17 in Verses 1-18 it gives us several characteristics of the one-world religion.

The false religion will dominate all the “peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues” of the earth (Revelation 17, 15), meaning that it will have universal authority, no doubt given by the Antichrist, who rules the world at that time. Verses 2–3 describe the harlot as committing adultery with the “kings of the earth,” referring to the fal se religion’s influence among the world’s rulers and influential people.

Those who oppose the worldwide religion will be killed, and those who refuse to worship the Antichrist by accepting his Mark will be unable to buy and sell, thereby making survival very difficult, which would mean us Christians (Revelation 13:16–17).

One World Religion Foundations being laid? The Mekudeshet Event 2016

Events are taking place with increasing frequency around the world. For some reason I keep circling one particular event and it´s not getting a huge amount of coverage in the mainstream media. This Mekudeshet Event is called an Inter Faith event which is currently being held in Jerusalem and started 4 Sept and ends 23 September 2016. On the surface, this is a cultural and music event aimed at bringing multiple faiths into one arena and culminates in a consecration event spread over a number of days finishing on 23 September 2016. This date is quite significant as on this date 1 year ago the Pope visited and met the US President starting a series of unprecedented meetings.



This event it has to be said slipped under my radar with just a handful of websites giving mention and coverage, with most of the headlines appearing around the 20th or so of August. A tweet with a video was put out some days ago giving further information on this event and another one was put out over the weekend with more information via a website called JerusalemChannel.TV

This event is bringing actors, artists, musicians and media from around the world, also 3 major faiths in the name of Inter Faith. Roman Catholic, Muslim and Judaism but not Evangelical Christianity ie those who stipulate you should have a personal relationship with Jesus.

This could turn out to be a significant event or maybe just the laying of some foundations for something else that could be arising in the foreseeable future. This has all the hallmarks of the One World Religion mentioned in Revelation 17.The Pope is showing a lot of interest in this and has been building bridges to many faiths over the last year or so. It´s quite clear he has an agenda.

23 September is one of those dates that seems to crop up more times than it should do and is right in the middle of the lead up to some special prominent Holy Days in the Jewish Calendar including, Rosh Hashana (Feast of Trumpets) Mon 3 Oct and Tues 4 Oct (Jewish New Year), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) Tues 11 Oct- Wed 12 Oct , and not forgetting Sukhot the Feast of Tabernacles on Mon‑Tue Oct 17-18 and Wed-Sun Oct 19-23. The month of October and the lead up to it could prove to be extremely significant.

Right just before all this is this Mekudeshet interfaith event, which has the following press release shedding more light on what this is all about:

“Amen-A House of Prayer For All Believers,” is part of the 2016
Mekudeshet Festival that will carry on through September 23. It is an initiative created by the Jerusalem Season of Culture, an annual festival. Their hope
is to bring together the world’s three major faiths “who share a belief in one God and a boundless love for Jerusalem to dialogue, study, sing and pray together in one temporary house of worship.”


The goal of the event is to create “a single home for the world’s three major religions to harness the city’s ancient powers to inspire artists, musicians and cultural figures from around the world to redefine their art and traditions and connect amid troubling times.” The three faiths being mentioned here are Catholicism (Christian) , Judaism and Islam.

It´s all cleverly done in the name of art and culture but the main headline is to bring together the world’s three major faiths “who share a belief in one God and a boundless love for Jerusalem to dialogue, study, sing and pray together in one temporary house of worship.” That´s the real headline buried right in there.

Check out this video, very detailed, in depth and can be heavy going in places but sheds some light on this event and in particular the venue?



On the surface it all sounds like one big happy family on paper paraded under a lovely Co Ex Ist logo, but when you get into the mechanics of it maybe the Jewish and Christian element could say they worship the same God as in the God called Yahweh but Islam does not. It is just a reinvented form of Baal worship mentioned many times in the Bible as "the high places" that incurs God´s wrath on every occasion with disastrous consequences. The Allah in Islam is not the Yahweh in Judaism and Christianity! Even the Islam symbol of the Crescent Moon and Star gives the game away as to what they worship. To bring these religions together effectively you would have to bring in a New Religion that all religions would agree on or be forced to agree on which would be the One World Religion. I think it will be New Age in nature but I could be wrong? A Bible quote that sheds some light on Baal worship from the Old Testament.

1 Kings 22:52-53
51 Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned two years over Israel.
52 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin:
53 For he served Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked to anger the LORD God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.


Charisma News was one of the initial Religious News sites to pick up om this event and had this to say which I agree with entirely. Building bridges, breaking down barriers and handing out olive branches is one thing but changing and destroying the very basis of your faith to compromise.... is something else.

As I've said before, dialogue is one thing. Compromising the tenets of Christianity is altogether different. Using art and culture as a shill, Amen appears to be nothing more than an attempt to redefine religion. via Charisma News

Baal is at the very centre of all these events. Baal worship is basically a form of Paganism. In Matthew 12:27, Jesus calls Satan “Beelzebub,” linking the devil to Baal-Zebub, a Philistine deity (2 Kings 1:2). The Baalim of the Old Testament were nothing more than demons masquerading as gods, and all idolatry is ultimately devil-worship (1 Corinthians 10:20).

Moving away from the Mekudeshet Event and focusing more on Baal in particular, brings us nicely onto two recent events which embrace the Temple of Baal. The entrance Arch called Palmyra´s Arch of Triumph, which got destroyed by ISIS, for some reason is popping up in two notable cities. ISIS have destroyed many old religious relics, so why have the powers that be chosen this one, is the question that springs to mind?? More to the point why erect this arch in September 2016???

Temple of Baal Entrance London April 2016

Two headlines that don´t mention the Temple of Baal in the headline. But this was erected in Trafalgar Square in April 2016 and hailed as a remarkable achievement? It stood for 3 days and then was to be reconstructed in New York. This was delayed but now has been built and is actually in New York at the time of writing today in September 2016. See headlines below for further details..

Another Inter Faith Publicity Event London June 2016

The newly elected Mayor of London Sadiq Khan took a break in his Ramadan Fast and made the headlines with a groundbreaking photo of him (Muslim) with a Chief London Rabbi (Judaism) and the Archbishop of Canterbury (Christianity) in a Church and looks like there is a Hindu there and probably others. Again it´s a great photo (staged or otherwise) and looks the answer to all the worlds problems. The undercurrents here though are similar to the Mekudeshet event and others, in paving the way for the One World Religion. A photo of the Tweet and Picture below and the headline from a Jewish News Website. I saw this on the day and something stopped me from retweeting it!

The Gathering Event 21 September 2016?

Another event that is on 21 September 2016 is called The Gathering which is uniting Pastors across America. Looking at the logo with the Pyramid A again lost on most, but it is without doubt an Illuminati symbol, maybe put their by accident.........I think not. The premise of this event is to pray for America before the elections. The headline statement is One Vision, One Voice One Agenda. Again around a similar period of time as the Mekudeshet event. The mission statement of "One Vision, One Voice One Agenda" could quite easily also be read as "One Religion, One Language, One Government"..... I´m sure it´s just an innocent gathering of Christian Pastors? Form your own opinion!

Summary:

We are in a significant period of time in the next couple of months as is demonstrated by these headlines and "The Devil is in the detail".....literally. It´s the smaller headlines and events that can easily fall under your radar that contain the missing pieces of the prophetic jigsaw puzzle and reveal so much. World leaders are changing or have changed (UK and Brexit being a particular case in point). The highly publicised US Elections, the outcome like no other time other is critical. In simple terms.....Walls down and more Obama..think Clinton....Walls up think Trump. Tensions are high in the Middle East, nuclear missile tests, tensions in the South China seas, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, Extreme Weather, a looming dollar crisis and masses more are going on and things are accelerating. The main stream media ensures it´s easy to get focused on these important news headlines and get sidetracked and miss the smaller developments that are potentially huge in significance.

These Inter Faith events are increasing in number and on the surface aim to bring all people together of different faiths and it all looks cosy and harmonious on first impressions. The real agenda is much more sinister, that is changing public perception on religion, moving away from the traditional to something new and all embracing. You could say a moving away from the truth to something false or counterfeit in nature. This is currently going on now as we speak with Mega Churches and their associated Mega Preachers indoctrinating their following with false teachings.

It´s all part of the paving of the way for the compulsory  and Prophetic One World Religion that would be declared by the coming Anti Christ who would declare himself to be God. Many things would need to happen for this to take place including the 3rd temple in Jerusalem (some say it is not required, some say it has happened already?) for the Daniel Prophecy to be fulfilled and a global chaotic event to bring about the NWO. Make no mistake though, these Inter Faith events are definite cogs in the formation and changing of public perception of Religion in general, to a more one size fits all religious mentality. The Mekudeshet Event and the Temple of Baal Arch erected in New York during the same 4-23 September time frame is no coincidence. The Church of Satan (Baal) and The One World Religion gets closer everyday!

Where is Mystery Babylon mentioned in the Book of Revelation

Mystery Babylon. Where is it, what is it and the importance of this in the Book of Revelation and End Times Prophecy.

There are many theories as to what the Mystery Babylon or Mystery Babylon the Great mentioned in Revelation 17 and 18 in great detail is and what it represent. This article will narrow down what Mystery Babylon is in our modern times, why it is mentioned as a "Mystery" and the three prime candidates that fit most accurately the quite detailed description of who, what and where this place is.u

The three prime suspects are as follows:
1. Rome or more precisely The Vatican and The Roman Catholic Church.
2. America or more precisely New York
3. Saudi Arabia or more precisely Mecca and Islam

Istanbul in Turkey has been mentioned as another possibility, the original Babylon in Iraq, Europe and even London are others. These have not been looked into here but it has been mentioned many times by many people that Turkey has a role to play in the unfolding end times scenario and is always watched closely and cannot be ignored. Recent events unfolding confirm that fact. Some say it will be the seat of Satan in the End Times.

This is not a Prophetic article it´s just a demonstration that all of God´s plans are contained in the word. Only God has the whole picture. We just get the jigsaw puzzle and have to fit the pieces together via what is contained in the Bible. It´s just knowing where to look......but it is there, it just seems to reveal itself to people that have the understanding of how God works. This article ties in with The Rapture and the Tribulation article as Mystery Babylon is a key component within the forthcoming Tribulation time frame.

Everything about Mystery Babylon is contained in Revelation 17 and  Revelation 18 and the detail is quite frightening in places as in it´s . If you cross reference from a hard copy KJV Bible from these two chapters you will be led to mainly two books. The Book of Isaiah and Jeremiah tie up closely with Revelation and many cross references reference those two books by these two Major Prophets from the Old Testament. Genesis also comes up on occasion especially with specific reference to Sodom and Gomorrah, which means this Mystery Babylon has similarities and will be judged accordingly. The cross references strongly suggest this!

When doing these Bible studies to see whether Rome, New York or any other city in the US and Mecca fit the bill....everything must align with the word...everything. Just having a theory and pulling out Bible Quotes to support that theory may seem convincing, BUT do ALL the jigsaw pieces fit?

The way this research was approached was via videos that each were convinced that their particular theory was correct and that it just can´t be denied. Many videos were watched and just four in my personal opinion, came up with a convincing argument that Mystery Babylon was definetly and undeniably the place that they think it is.

There are many Bible quotes in reference to Mystery Babylon but I have reduced it down to 23 verses/quotes which I think are key in identifying Mystery Babylon, some are major, some are very small details. Sometimes it´s the smaller details that really nail what and who and where this Mystery Babylon really is. Some people say the Book of Revelation is full of metaphors and symbolism and is not to be taken literally. Sometimes that is true, sometimes it isn´t. In Revelation 17 and 18 anything that is a metaphor or a symbol is quite clearly explained.

Here´s the key Bible quotes that give away the identity of Mystery Babylon and narrow things down quite convincingly to the Rome (Vatican), US (New York) and Saudi Arabia (Mecca) candidates.

The Rome Argument

Rome in Relation to Revelation 17
Rev 17:1 It does not sit on many waters, it is not a coastal city. The nation Italy is but the Vatican is not. Rome is inland with no access to the sea.
Rev 17:3 The wilderness referred to here is desert. There are no desert regions in Italy or near the Vatican
Rev 17:4 The Pope wears Purple, Scarlet and Gold and the Golden Cup is also a Roman Catholic identifier
Rev 17:5 No reference
Rev 17:6 The blood of Martyrs and Saint The Roman Catholic Church has been responsible for many Christian deaths via the Roman Catholic Crusades and the Roman Catholic Inquisitors
Rev 17:9 Rome is the City known as the City of Seven Hills
Rev 17:10 No reference
Rev 17:12 No reference
Rev 17:15 The Vatican is not renowned as a multicultural melting pot but the Roman Catholic Church does have many peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues
Rev 17:18 The Roman Catholic Church is a Mariana (Mary the Mother of God) based religion which would fit The Woman. Are the world leaders answerable to the Pope in finality is another question.

Rome in Relation to Revelation 18

Rev 18:2-3 The nations have drunk of the wine of her fornication could refer to the Catholic Eucharist. The Kings of te Earth have committed fornication with her just doesn´t fit. Merchants of the earth rich via her delicacies. No convincing argument there either except for materials for church idols and worship.
Rev 18:7. The Roman Catholic Church has glorfied itself and the Pope is more a Celebrity figure than other Church leaders.
Rev 18:8-11 No reference
Rev 18:12-13 Some of the merchandise listed does appear at the Vatican and in Catholic Churches around the globe but beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots. Slaves historically but not in these modern times. Souls of men you could argue is very relevant but not exactly a precise fit overall.
Rev 18:17. Rome and the Vatican has nothing to do with shipmasters, and ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea.
Rev 18:18 Why would the Vatican be burned to the ground?
Rev 18:19 "And they cast dust on their heads". This is not an Italian or even Vatican or Roman Catholic Custom
Rev 18:23 Catholicism is renowned for burning of candles in it´s Churches and weddings take place in Catholic churches with a bridegroom and a bride. The pieces do fit here.
Rev 18:24 Mention again of the Blood of Saints and Prophets which the Roman Catholic Church is guilty of in it´s past

The America Argument

New York and America in Relation to Revelation 17
Rev 17:1 America sits on many waters, The Great Lakes, The Atlantic Ocean, The Pacific Ocean and The Gulf of Mexico. The Great Whore could be in reference to the Statue of Liberty which is based on the Goddess of Ishtar which is the goddess of fertility, love, war, and sex.
Rev 17:3 America has Desert but it is to the West. New York has no wilderness or desert where the Statue of Liberty is based.
Rev 17:4 The Statue of Liberty is Jade Green and is not dressed in Purple and Scarlet, she has something in her hand but it is not a Golden Cup but a Flaming Torch or representation off it.
Rev 17:5 The Statue of Liberty has no writing on her forehead
Rev 17:6 America is a predominantly Christian Nation and has not been responsible for the death of Christian Prophets, Martyrs and Saints.That´s unless it is the Secret sponsor of ISIS?
Rev 17:9 The woman sitteth on Seven Mountains. New York does not sit on Seven Mountains, America does not sit on Seven Mountains it sits on hundreds of mountains. The video following this states the Seven Mountains are Seven Continents which the US has control over. Form your own opinion.
Rev 17:10 Some say the Seven Kings are the Seven Presidents of the United States,the last being the present President in Office. Form your own opinion.
Rev 17:12 No reference
Rev 17:15 The waters are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. Yes America and New York in particular is a nation/city of peoples, multitudes, nations and tongues as in multicultural.
Rev 17:18 The woman as in the Statue of Liberty the first thing you see when entering the US from the East and representation of that Nation is the current World No1 and Superpower and in effect rules over the other Kings (Presidents) via the US Dollar and superior military firepower and technology.

New York and America in Relation to Revelation 18

Rev 18:2-3 All the nations have drunk of the wine of her fornication. This could be applied o the US with it´s liberal views and Westernised society that has spread throughout the world, with Hollywood Films and Pornography dominating their respective markets along with Technology.
Rev 18:7 America has cartainly glorified itself and been proud in it´s history which is lately turning to arrogrance in it´s latter days.
Rev 18:8-11 No reference but if the US were to collapse it would cause major disruption to trade around the globe.
Rev 18:12-13 Some of the items in this merchandise list may be applicable to America but importation of food as suggested by this Bible verse just doesn´t fit whatsoever. The argument that the prophecy is an old one and these are the goods that they had in those times does not hold either. Spices could be equated to drugs but if the Bible mentions Spices....then it is Spices.
Rev 18:17 And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off. This isvery relevant to America with it´s many seaports and New York in particular is a busy Seaport.
Rev 18:18 The destruction mentioned here and mention of a Great City again ties in with New York but loosely.
Rev 18:19 And they cast dust on their heads. This is a very small detail but a major one in the Revelation prophecy. In the US (as far as I´m aware) it is not a national custom to "cast dust on their heads" in anguish. A small point but a major one and another jigsaw puzzle piece that doesn´t fit.

The Saudi Arabia - Mecca Argument

Mecca and Islam in Relation to Revelation 17
Rev 17:1 Mecca, Saudi Arabia and the Arabian Peninsular sits on many waters including the Persian Gulf on the northeast, the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Oman on the east, the Arabian Sea on the southeast and south, the Gulf of Aden on the south and the Bab-el-Mandeb strait.
Rev 17:3 Mecca and Saudi Arabia are predominantly wilderness or desert and dust.
Rev 17:4 The woman decked in scarlet and purple and decked with precious stones could represent the wealth of Saudi Arabia.
Rev 17:5 No reference
Rev 17:6 Blood of Saints and Martyrs. Recent news headlines confirm that many Christians are being killed or beheaded or persecuted by extreme and radical Islam such as ISIS
Rev 17:9 Mecca the capital of Saudi Arabia sits on seven hills
Rev 17:10 No real reference but the country of Saudi Arabia is not run by a President but by Royalty and a King
Rev 17:12 No reference
Rev 17:15 The waters are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. Saudia Arabia is 90% Arabic and 10% Afro/Asian. It is not a multicultural country. It does serve multitudes of nations, tongues and peoples via it´s world leading oil production.
Rev 17:18 "Is that great city that reigneth over the Kings of the Earth" Saudi Arabia is the 2nd largest oil producer in the world with the US only recently claiming the No1 spot due to it´s newly found shale oil and gas exploration. Islam isthe worldssecond religion and rising fast only Christianity is bigger. The Islam religion and capital of the Islamic faith is Mecca

The Saudi Arabia Video 1



Mecca and Islam in Relation to Revelation 18
Rev 18:2-3 For all nations have drunk of her wine: The wine of Saudi Arabia has just got be OIL. Kings of the Earth have committed fornication: Prominent World leaders have ensured Saudi Arabia is protected because of the resources she has. The merchants of theearth are waxed rich: Saudi Arabia is a net importer of food, goods, spices, vehicles, gold etc.
Rev 18:7 Saudi Arabia has certainly glorified itself amongst the nations especially amongst it´s other Middle Eastern counterparts and proud of it´s powerful relations with the West.
Rev 18:9 "when they shall see the smoke of her burning". If Arabia was to experience agreat fire as mentioned in Revelation then there would be much burning and vast amounts of smoke due to the oil reserves that she has and the oil dependent West would sorely miss those supplies.
Rev 18:11 "And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more". Saudi Arabia is a net importer of Food and Goods as it has limited means of production. It imports around 80% and produces 20% locally.
Rev 18:12-13 All the merchandise mentioned in these two verses are very relevant to Saudi Arabia. Replace Chariots with cars and slaves with cheap imported labour from Africa and Asia working in horrific conditions on building sites and other jobs that Saudi´s do not want to do and this is a best fit of the three
Rev 18:17 "And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off" Most of the trade for Saudi arabia arrives viaseaports such as Jeddah which serves Mecca.
Rev 18:18 If Saudi Arabia was to burn, it would burn for some time with much smoke due to it´s extensive oil reseves.
Rev 18:19 "And they cast dust on their heads". This custom does not fit the New York US argument or even the Rome argument. What society casts dust on their heads and what country has plenty of dust? The Middle East. It´s an old Judaism custom and a symbol of mourning and is still practiced today by Islam although not as much as in the days of old.
Rev 18:23 Can´t see any fit in relation to Mecca or Saudi Arabia. Possibly Islam with the Sorcery as Islam is a Baal Worship based religion.
Rev 18:24 See Rev 17:6. Same reasons

Extra Cross References:
In my KJV Bible there is a reference to Isaiah 34.10 and the verse before it as in 34:9 explains it further and gives in my opinion further confirmation.

9. And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
10. It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.

Pitch produced from plants is also known as resin. Pitch in it´s other various forms may also be called tar, bitumen or asphalt. These are derivatives made from OIL

Saudi Arabia and Mecca Video 2





This is an extremely quick skim on how I look at the Prophecy in relation and how it fits in with our modern times. Mystery Babylon is a reference to a New Babylon that has yet to come (based at the time of the prophecy writings). Rome was around in Biblical Times but New York and America were not and the Religion Islam came after Christianity (about 600 years) which would also earn it a Mystery tag.

Each one of the four videos gives a convincing argument that makes you believe that particular theory is the best fit when viewed in isolation, but when viewed one after the other, the theories do not seem so clear cut. For me personally Mecca, Islam and Saudi Arabia tops the list, the pieces just seem to fit. New York and America a close second and Rome and The Vatican and the Catholic Church a close third. All 3 are inter connected in some way and in reality the best option is to watch all 3 closely for developments. For example the Pope visited the US for the first time on 23 September 2015 which gives strength to the Rome and US argument, but again always follow the scripture.

Finally what ultimately swayed my decision is to always remember, keep your eyes on the following areas in this order Jerusalem, Israel, and the Middle East. Most of Revelations is centred around those areas and Yes America, Russia and China are powerful but they are I think 3 of the Ten kings mentioned in Rev 17:12. The world could be divided into 10 kingdoms prior to the establishment of the New World Order One World Government.

Still not convinced Saudi Arabia is the Mystery Babylon. Watch this last video
