The Political Maneuverings
In October 2011, the Vatican called for a “global public authority” and a “central world bank”. In March 2011 the new cardinals were elected who will be responsible for electing the next pope, whenever that takes place. The behind the scenes maneuverings are most amazing to watch. Again, look at the “leaked” documents.
Benedict Resigns
There have also been numerous rumors that Pope Benedict XVI would resign in April of 2012. The Vatican has continuously denied these rumors, but still they persist. One of the leading reasons these rumors persist is due to the Belgian Jesuit Rene Thibaut’s book, The Mysterious Prophecy of the Popes, which predicts a change in popes this April, and the coming of the final pope, Petras Romanus. And adding fuel to the possibility that the current pope may be replaced are the leaked documents giving the impression that there is a conspiracy against Pope Benedict XVI.
News broke today of Pope Benedict XVI’s decision to resign due to health issues as of February 28, 2013 at 20:00 hours, to the surprise of even Vatican insiders. Benedict is the first Pontiff since 1415 to resign the office. Most Popes leave the office only upon their death. In 2009 Benedict was the second Pope to visit Israel, following in the footsteps of Pope John Paul II, who first visited Israel in 2000.
On March 13, 2013, at 8:13pm, with a cloud of white smoke wafting out of the chimney of the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican announced its newest Pope, Pope Francis I. Pope Francis I’s real name is Jorge Mario Bergoglio, a son of Italian parents from Turin, Italy. He has been the archbishop of Buenos Aires beginning in 1998 and a cardinal since 2001. Bergoglio, a Jesuit, has chosen the name Francis in honor of the patron saint of Italy, St. Francis of Assisi.
The Prophecy of the Popes
The final Pope on St. Malachy’s prophecy was to be called Peter the Roman. According to his prophecy, Peter the Roman will be the pope who cooperates with the Antichrist, and that this cooperation will result in the city of seven hills being destroyed. Has this non-biblical prophecy come to naught, or is it in the process of being fulfilled? The name Francis, it would appear, has nothing to do with the name Peter. Not so fast! St. Francis of Assisi’s full name is: Francesco di Pietro (Peter) di Bernardone — literally, Peter the Roman. Oh my! But wait, there’s more. The numerous occultic signs surrounding this election, especially in relation to the number 13 cannot be totally dismissed. Francis was elected on 3-13-13 at 8:13. At the same time, the comet Pan-Starrs was hovering close to the moon, even appearing to silhouette it. The meaning of Pan is “all” and Starrs (or Stars) scripturally can be a synonym for angels (or demons)!
The Alien Agenda
Monsignor Balducci, a member of the Vatican Curia, has several times on TV stated that extraterrestrial contact is a real phenomena. Guy Consolmagno, the Vatican’s senior scientist, has also hinted that alien life is real
The Direction This May Be Going
If it is true that cultic acts of Satanic pedophilia and perhaps even human sacrifice have lead to the enthronement of Lucifer in the Vatican, then where is this leading? If Lucifer (Satan, or the antichrist) is about to be revealed, then it makes sense that the False Prophet will be revealed first (just as John the Baptizer preceded Jesus) in order to trumpet his master’s arrival on the scene. The woman is about to ride the beast!
The Vatican Wants Jerusalem
For many years, now, the Vatican has been trying to lay its hands on Jerusalem. In December 2011, Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, head of the Vatican’s Council for Interreligious Dialogue, began reiterating demands for control of religious sites in and around Jerusalem, saying: “There will not be peace if the question of the holy sites is not adequately resolved. The part of Jerusalem within the walls – with the holy sites of the three religions – is humanity’s heritage. The sacred and unique character of the area must be safeguarded and it can only be done with a special, internationally-guaranteed statute”.
The sites specifically mentioned are the Upper Room on Mount Zion and the garden of Gethsemane at the foot of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. The first site also houses what is referred to as King David’s tomb. Israel’s deputy foreign minister, Danny Ayalon, believes that this could begin by initially allowing the Vatican more control over these sites than it currently has.
The Vatican also wants Israel to relinquish the Western Wall and the Temple Mount, the Mount of Olives, Mount Zion and other holy sites. These are all sites which President Clinton recommended be administered by a “special regime”.
In February and March of 2013, officials of the Vatican met with representatives of the Palestine Liberation Organization. Documents released by the Vatican have begun referring to the “State of Palestine”. These moves continue to show that the Vatican supports Arab sovereignty over Jerusalem, and the removal of Israeli control over the region.
The Vatican continues to vie for control over the sovereignty of some 21 sites, including:
- The Western Wall
- The Temple Mount
- The Garden of Gethsemane at the foot of the Mount of Olives
- The Tomb of King David on Mount Zion
- The Upper Room on Mount Zion, also known as the Cenacle Shrine or Coenaculum
Why They Want It
The Vatican has desired Jerusalem as far back as era of the crusades. But why? It has been conjectured that the coming One World Religion is to be headquartered here. It has also been conjectured that the next (and final) pope will be the head of this religion. Revelation Chapter 11 tells us that at that time Jerusalem will spiritually be called Sodom and Egypt, Jerusalem will be the place where the two witnesses will be killed, and Jerusalem will also be the home of the third temple, in which the antichrist will declare himself to be god. Further conjecture predicts that it will be the antichrist who will actually build the third temple.
Now, if the Vatican has indeed been a tool of Satan, if the next pope is going to be the false prophet predicted by Biblical scripture and who is in cohorts with the antichrist, then this would certainly explain the decades old desire of the Vatican to control Jerusalem.
What They Will Receive
In December of 2011 Israel National News reported that Israel might consider giving the Vatican a greater role in operating the sites.
Giulio Meotti, in a YNet April 2012 Opinion column says: “Israel reached an historical agreement with the Vatican to give up some sort of sovereignty over the “Hall of the Last Supper” on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. The Vatican will now have a foothold at the site: Israel agreed to give the Vatican first priority in leasing opportunities and access to it.”
In June 2012, the new Pope will be granted an official seat in the room where Jesus is supposed to have broken bread and drunk wine with his disciples on the eve of his crucifixion, when the agreement that has been formulated by outgoing Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon, without any public input behind closed doors is signed.
Impact
This agreement, once ratified, will give the Pope “special authority over the second floor of the Cenacle Shrine building, so that Christian pilgrims will be able to celebrate religious functions like Pope John Paul did in 2000”. The agreement will give greater control to the Vatican over the area known as King David’s Tomb. The agreement will also directly impact the Diaspora Yeshiva, as both The Tomb of King David and the room of the Last Supper are on Yeshiva grounds. The Diaspora Yeshiva has renovated the area and has never interfered with tourism to the sites.
Rick Halpern, director of the Mt. Zion Redevelopment Project, feels this agreement, if signed, will be used by the Vatican to openly promote their agenda (i.e. promotion of Arab and Palestinian statehood), minimizing the current Jewish and Christian atmosphere that surrounds the site.
Conclusion
Zechariah 12:2-3 “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”
The Vatican has consistently proven that it is not Israel friendly. It has worked diligently since the late 1990’s to gain control over Jerusalem and the surrounding area and to minimize the authority of Israelis, often using secret behind the scenes diplomacy. It continues to promote the “replacement theology” false claim that the “church” has replaced Israel in Yahweh’s plans. It continues to promote and recognize Palestinian statehood and the division of Israel, both of which scripture declares forbidden actions.
Prophecy continues to unfold as foretold by the Hebrew prophets. The stage is being set. Each day is one day closer to our Lord’s return. One can only ask: “How much longer will Yahweh restrain His hand from removing the Vatican and its interference into Israeli authority from His land?” Yeshua Ha’Mashiach is coming soon. Get busy reaching the lost.
