Sliding into World War Three: Part 1

As the newly-elected government in Iraq remains bogged down in sectarian disputes, the country continues its downhill slide into civil war. Everyone wants peace, but they all want it on their own terms, and too many of them are willing to kill others in order to establish peace on their own terms.

On Feb. 22 of this year the first really major bomb attack on an important Shiite mosque at Samarra marked a change in war tactics. Someone is obviously trying to start a sectarian war and tear the country apart. I personally believe that they will succeed in spite of the opposition of the majority of Iraqis, because Rev. 16:19 says about Babylon, "and the great city was split into three parts." Iraq is not exactly old Babylon, nor is it the Mystery Babylon of the book of Revelation. But it is a sign of Mystery Babylon. So what happens in Iraq is a sign of what is shortly to happen to the great harlot of Revelation--the world system.

On April 6 a car bomb killed ten people near a Shiite mosque at Najaf. The next day three suicide bombers entered the Buratha mosque in north Baghdad and blew themselves up, killing at least 79 and wounding at least 160 worshippers. Each time this happens, it becomes more difficult for the Shiite leaders to keep the people calm and ask them not to retaliate.

AOL News reports today (April 8, 2006):

"The horrific explosions at the Buratha mosque are likely to stoke the already raw tensions between Shiite and Sunni Muslims, and come at a time of political stalemate as Iraqi leaders struggle to form a new government. Many see the formation of such a government representing all Iraqi groups as the only solution to stemming the startling violence.

"Formation efforts have stalled over Sunni and Kurdish opposition to Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari, the Shiite candidate to lead the government. Al-Jaafari has refused to step aside, and his Shiite coalition has been reluctant to reconsider his nomination for fear of splintering the alliance."

I believe that the "insurgents" believe that the only way to get rid of U.S. troops and replace the current "Democracy" in Iraq with their own version of government is to exploit the sectarian differences within the country itself. If they can succeed in bringing about a civil war, U.S. troops will be forced to withdraw. Frankly, I think they have found the one strategy that will actually work.

What they do not realize is that they will be helping to fulfill Bible prophecy in Rev. 16:19. But then, President Bush did not realize what he was doing either, when he authorized the invasion and overthrow of the previous Iraqi government. He set the sign for the overthrow of Mystery Babylon without realizing it, and thereby undermined the whole world system. He did this in the name of peace and in the name of saving the world system. Or, as he called it, "preserving our way of life."

In my Foundation For Intercession bulletin, Issue #197, "Revelation: Part 28" (Feb. 2005), page 4, I quoted from Albert Pike's letter to Mazzini, dated Aug. 15, 1871. It proposed three world wars that he felt were needed to accomplish the overthrow of all religions and replace them with "the pure doctrine of Lucifer."

Although this letter is no longer to be found today, it was referenced by Cardinal Rodriguez of Santiago, Chile in his 1925 book, The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled. The Cardinal cites authorities who referenced the letter as early as 1895 and 1896. I leave it to you to decide if the letter was just a hoax or if it is proving to be accurate over a century later.

The first war was to overthrow the Russian Czar and make that country "a fortress of atheistic Communism" and "to weaken the religions." This was accomplished in 1914-1918 with World War 1.

The second war was to destroy Fascism and Nazism and "to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine." This was accomplished in 1939-1945 with World War 2.

The third was to take advantage of the differences between the political Zionists and the Islamic World. "The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other," Pike wrote. He continued, ". . .the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity. . . will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time."

If someone over a century ago had the foresight or prophetic ability to devise such a plan AS A HOAX, surely someone would have had the same ability to devise such a plan FOR REAL. The real question is whether this old plan lines up with current events.

First, political Zionism has turned Judaism on its ear, turning millions of Jews into fanatics willing to drive out millions of Palestinians in order to displace them and steal their land. Or at least to support them politically and financially from a safe distance in America and Europe.

Secondly, Christians are also being led into a trap in order to bring about a great disillusionment that is designed to destroy Christianity and replace it with Luciferianism. The most important step in this process was to turn Christians into Zionists as well. Step One was to create an expectation of a Jewish State by promoting the idea that the Jews were fulfilling the prophecies of the house of Israel. To do this, they needed a Bible with notes teaching this idea, using "futurism" as its basis.

C. I. Scofield did this with the assistance of the Lotos Club at the request of Samuel Untermeyer, a Jewish (non-Christian) lawyer who helped draw up the Federal Reserve Act that brought America into Babylonian bondage in 1914. See Joseph M. Canfield's book, The Incredible Scofield and His Book, pages 173-174. I quoted from this book in FFI #200, dated April 2005, page 4.

Step 2 was put into operation with J. Randolph Hurst's now famous telegram to "puff Graham." Hurst, the wealthy newspaper magnate, a non-Christian Jew, took three days out of his very busy schedule to check out Billy Graham and then promote him. Why? Because he could be used for political purposes. Whether Mr. Graham was aware of being used or not, I do not know. I think he had some awareness of this, but I think he also sincerely believed what he preached.

Meanwhile, the Arab people were being mobilized as well to defend themselves against Jewish Zionism and Christian Zionism. I believe that the beast of war was let loose on Sept. 11, 2001 with the destruction of the Twin Towers. I believe that it was also part of the plan to have an avowed Christian in the White House at this time, and to manipulate him through his aides and cabinet--and even Christian Zionist leaders--to go to war. I believe this will prove to be the beginning of World War 3, whose purpose it is to disillusion American Christians, even as the previous World Wars disillusioned Christians in Europe.
