Quick Facts on Prophecy and Fulfillment

What are the seven hills of Rome?
Rome is known to be built upon seven hills. Rome was said to have been founded when Romulus and Remus, twin sons of Mars, ended up at the foot of the hill Palatine and founded the city. The other six hills are Capitoline (the seat of government), Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, Caelian, and Aventine.-"Geography.about.com"

ENCYCLOPÆDIA BRITANNICA

Seven Hills of Rome
...group of hills on or about which the ancient city of Rome was built. The original city of Romulus was built upon Palatine Hill (Latin: Mons Palatinus). The other hills are the Capitoline, Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, Caelian, and Aventine (known respectively in Latin as the Mons Capitolinus, Mons Quirinalis, Mons Viminalis, Mons Esquilinus, Mons Caelius, and Mons Aventinus). -http://www.britannica.com/seo/s/seven-hills-of-rome/

Fact: Roman Catholicism arose out of Western Europe with a multitude of "peoples, nations, and tongues" as parishoners. And presently the Roman Catholic church sports the highest number of "peoples, nations and tongues" in any church the world over. And now, after the prophecied One World Church coming to fruition on June 26, 2000, the Pope was elected as leader to all churches that have joined with His. This nearly doubled the church membership in the first 5 years. Soon, all churches, including non-Christian faiths will declare the pope their "moral" leader.

Fact: As of June 2008 174 Nations out of the 192 on Earth have state representatives at the Vatican.

Fact: Documented Roman Catholic source states: "In a certain respect, she (the papacy) has copied her organization from that of the Roman Empire, has preserved and made fruitful the philosophical intuitions of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, borrowed from both Barbarians and the Bysantine Roman Empire, but always remains herself, thoroughly digesting all elements drawn from external sources." -Andre Retif, The Catholic Spirit, trans by Dom Aldhelm Dean, Vol. 88 of the Twentieth Century Encyclopedia of Catholicism (New York, Hawthorne Books, 1959) p. 85

Fact: : Roman Catholic Jesuit Author, Malachi Martin states, "He (the Pope) is protected by four governments" - The Keys of this Blood (p. 120)

Fact: Roman Catholic Author, Malachi Martin states in his book The Keys of this Blood: "He is as determined to be world ruler as was Constantine in his day (p.49) He is protected by four governments (p. 120) He is the best-known person of the 20th century (p. 123) He is personal friends with the leaders of 91 countries (p. 490) People of the world seem to him ready for strong worldwide moral government with control (p. 160). Sixteen thousand journalists covered his American visit (p. 490)"

Fact: "During the 2,000 years the [Roman Catholic] Church has been on this earth, she has warred with nearly every government in this world. The world is full of their ruins. Their thrones have toppled over and fallen, their dynasties have come to dust. And the governments of the world today will meet the same fate if they challenge the hostility of the church of God. She remains; she is today what she was 2,000 years ago; . . she is today what she was during the Middle Ages; she is today what she was during the times of Protestant persecution during and since the sixteenth century; she is the invincible church of God. God help the state that attacks her; God help the king that provokes her hostility."--from a sermon by the Catholic priest D.S. Phelan on Sunday, Dec. 12, 1909, published in the Roman Catholic (St. Louis) periodical, The Western Watchman, Dec. 16, 1909.

Fact: Roman Catholic Author, Malachi Martin states in his book The Keys of this Blood: "The American ambassador says the Vatican is unmatched as a "listening post" (p. 120) The Vatican knows Saturday what will happen on Monday anywhere in the world. (p. 430) Papal structure is prepared for worldwide rule now. (p. 143)

Fact: Listen to Catholics as they speak of their Pope. Notice how they speak of the wonderful works of this mere man as often as a true Christian speaks of the wonderful works of Jesus Christ. Try it, ask them about their pope, then don't say anything, just listen. They will always glorify the creature over and above the Creator just as prophecy said they would. Prophecy says the Vatican will become the Religion of the people instead the God of creation. Historic fact is, the Catholics are those that have for generations, "...worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen." -Romans 1:25

Before showing the fulfillment on this one, I must show valid proof that the "name" of the beast is in fact the name he has chosen. All too often the name has been declared invalid by Rome.

Fact: Documented Roman Catholic source states "The letters inscribed in the Pope's miter are these 'VICARIUS FILII DEI'. which is the Latin for 'VICAR OF THE SON OF GOD.' Catholics hold that the church, which is a visible society, must have a visible head...., as head of the church, was given the title, 'VICAR OF CHRIST'." Our Sunday Visitor, (Catholic Weekly) "Bureau of information," Huntington, Ind., April 18, 1915. (Click here to see actual facsimilie of this )

Fact: Roman Catholic Author Malachi Martin uses the exact same title for the Pope on pages 114 and 122 of his book, "The Keys of this Blood."

Since this evidence came forth regarding the title, "Vicarius Filii Dei," and it's obvious connection to the 666 calculation of Revelation. The Roman Church has opted to teach it's followers to declare this title bogus and not a true title of the Popes. They have gone to great lengths seeking to lie to their people so as to remove the overwhelming evidence against them. However, this ministry has found additional documented facts from official Roman Catholic sources regarding this title.

Vicarius Filii Dei, is cited by the rector of Berlin, Andreas Helwig [or Helwich] (1572-1643) in his Antichristus Romanus.

You also might want to take a look at another facsimilie of the NOV 15, 1914 edition of OUR SUNDAY VISITOR (A Catholic publication) that openly uses the term Vicarius Filli Dei, as well as states THE NAME IS INSCRIBED ON THE POPES MITRE! You can view the actual document by clicking here. Not only does that publication show the title, "Vicarius Filii Dei, it also explains that it is considered a valid title as they do not refute that. Instead they attempt to epxlain why it it a trivial matter that it equals 666.

One more note of interest! Why is it I ask, when you go to the archives of "Our Sunday Visitor" that this particular edition is missing? Why is it so difficult to get a copy of page THREE of the Nov 15, 1914 "Our Sunday Visitor?" It's obvious, they are purposely trying to hide the truth. Praise the Lord there are people that have copies of this publication outside Vatican control.

Lately, many defending the Vatican have declared the use of the "V" twice in "Vicarivs" is invalid. However, if you research it out you will find the letter "V" was used in Roman times as a vowel (U) or a Consonant. (V) This is a common practice among all languages. For example. The letter "C" can be used as a HARD C or a SOFT C in words. Or the Letter P can be used as a P or completely silent. For example, the P in "pig" is heard, wherein the "P" in "pneumonia" is not.

"I have recently received what seems to be reliable information that a photo may exist of a papal funeral in St. Peter's Basilica near the beginning of the 20th century, in which the tiara inscribed with Vicarius Filii Dei can be seen. Combined with the above claims of Our Sunday Visitor, this would indicate that it was the funeral of either Leo XIII (1878-1903), or Pius X (1903-1914), and that previous popes probably wore the tiara in question. If anyone can turn up this photo and make it available to me, I will post it in this article." -excerpt taken from (http://www.aloha.net/~mikesch/666.htm)

Eyewitness testimony claims that Pope Gregory XVI (1831-1846) wore the inscribed tiara during the Easter Mass of 1845, and that the word Vicarius was on the top crown, Filii on the middle, and Dei on the lower crown, the words spelled out with jewels. See... The Number of his Name.

Fact: "Vigilius...ascended the papal chair (538 A.D.) under the military protection of Belisarius." History of the Christian Church, Vol. 3, p. 327

Historical records reveal the papacy began its reign in 538 AD upon Emperor Justinian's decree, and under the military protection of Belisarius. And the Bible says the beast will rule for EXACTLY 1260 years before receiving a mortal wound. Now it's just a matter of simple mathematics. It is also a grand method by which to see the Lord glorified. If the prophecy is correct, 1260 years after 538 AD the Beast must receive a mortal wound. If you add 1260 years to the beginning year the Roman Catholic church became a church and state power, 538 AD, you will arrive in the year 1798 AD. According to the Bible we are told the first reign of the Beast will last 1260 years, and by doing the math, that comes to the year 1798. Did it end in 1798, and how? First understand, according to the prophecy, we learn that, "He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword..." Revelation 13:10.

Fact The prophecy is telling us that the beast would be destroyed with the sword (sword = military) at the end of its reign of exactly 1260 years. Did this happen to Papal Rome in 1798...? YES IT DID! On February 10th Napoleon Bonaparte in that EXACT year 1798 A.D. sent his General Louis Alexandre Berthier, with his army into Rome, Italy. It is recorded... "In 1798 General Berthier made his entrance into Rome, abolished the papal government, and established a secular one." -Encyclopedia Britannica 1941 edition

Fact: Documented Roman Catholic source states -"Half Europe thought... that with the Pope the Papacy was dead." -Joseph Rickaby "The Modern Papacy" Lectures on the History of Religion, Lecture 24, (London Catholic Truth Society, 1910), p.1 (Pope died in August of 1799)

Fact: "In 1798 General Berthier made his entrance into Rome, abolished the papal government, and established a secular one." -Encyclopedia Britannica 1941 edition

Mussolini and (Cardinal) Gasspari sign historic Roman pact.

Fact: "The Roman question tonight was a thing of the past, and the Vatican was at peace with Italy... In affixing the autographs to the memorable document healing the wound of many years, extreme cordiality was displayed on both sides" -The San Francisco Chronicle. Feb. 11, 1929

Pope Becomes Ruler Of A State Again:

Fact: Rome, June 7.--From 11 o' clock this morning there was another sovereign independent State in the world. At that time Premier Mussolini, as Italian Foreign Minister representing King Victor Emmanuel--the first Italian Premier ever to cross the threshold of the Vatican--exchanged with Cardinal Gasparri, Papal Secretary of State, representing Pope Pius XI, ratifications of the treaties signed at the Lateran Palace on Feb. 11. By that simple act the sovereign independent State of Vatican City came into existence. -New York Times July 7, 1929

Pope dies: August 1799:

The Beast that was: The Roman church began in 538ad and continued until Napoleon sent in General Berthier in 1798ad

...and is not: From 1798ad until the signing of the Lateran treaty in 1929 the Roman Church/state was non-existent.

Fact: Documented Roman Catholic source states "The Pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, he is Jesus Christ himself, hidden under the veil of flesh." Catholic National July 1895.

Fact: Roman Catholic Pope states "We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty" ...Pope Leo XIII

Fact: Documented Roman Catholic source states "For thou art the shepherd, thou art the physician, thou art the director, thou art the husbandman, finally thou art another God on earth." Labbe and Cossart's "History of the Councils." Vol. XIV, col. 109

Fact: Documented Roman Catholic source states - The title "Lord God the Pope" is found within a gloss of Extravagantes of Pope John XXII, title 14, chapter 4

Fact: The "confessional" of the Roman Catholic Church is indeed yet another identifiable feature exposing the Vatican as Antichrist's dwelling. They openly declare a MAN dressed as a priest has the power to FORGIVE SINS!

Fact: Catholic emperors of the eastern empire found ways to help the pope by eliminating three of the Arian tribes. The Catholic emperor Zeno (474-491) arranged a treaty with the Ostrogoths in 487 which resulted in the eradication of the kingdom of the Arian Heruls in 492. And the catholic emperor Justinian (527-565) exterminated the Arian Vandals in 534 and signifcally broke the power of the Arian Ostrogoths in 538. Thus were Daniel's three horns - The Heruls, the Vandals, and the Ostrogoths - "plucked up by the roots." -C. Mervyn Maxwell, God Cares Vol. 1, p. 129

The beast will understand the dark methods of the Occult, and do as Satan requests.

	We have the benefit of Historic records at our fingertips today. History is is behind us! We now have absolute proof the prophecies were fulfilled in the exact years the Bible said they would be. We now need to take advantage of these historic records and bring this Truth to the world!. Use the history books and share these facts with those that do not believe. Once they see this with their own eyes, they will believe. Jesus said... "And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe." -John 14:29
