TWIN TIMELINES
Part XXVIII
In Part XXVII of Twin Timelines, we
established the identity of the fourth beast of Daniel 7 as America
– the empire which succeeded the British Commonwealth (the Lion
kingdom), the Soviet Union (the Bear kingdom), and Nazi Germany
(the Leopard kingdom). Further, since the beast kingdoms of Daniel 7 lost their
dominions, but were allowed to continue to exist for an unspecified period,
they are sharply contrasted with their parallel Old Testament era kingdoms
which were never to rise again.
“Then was [Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome]
broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer
threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for
them” (Daniel 2:35).
Not only does this verse eliminate the fraud of the
so-called “Revived Roman Empire” (which is supposedly reinstituted
in modern times as a ten king confederation), it also destroys the theory of an
Islamic Antichrist, as that concept is also linked to the Eastern
branch of the original Roman Empire. Indeed, the False Prophets who
promote a Moslem Anti-Messiah all base their flawed prophetic calculations on
the idea the original Islamic kingdom was the seventh empire,
following Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome.
The Islamic Antichrist concept says the return of
Islam in the modern era is identified in Revelation as the mysterious eighth
head, which is alleged to be a resurrected version of the seventh
empire mentioned in the last book of the Bible.
“And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is,
and the other is not yet come…And the beast that was, and is not, even he
is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into
perdition” (Revelation 17:10).
Many prophecy figures have embraced the Islamic
Antichrist scenario, which is typified by the Israel First group WorldNet
Daily. One of the key theorists at WND is Joel Richardson, the
creative force behind multiple books, videos, and writing alleging Islam is
central to Bible prophecy. Richardson (and many others) claim the seventh
empire in prophecy must be Islam – thereby militating that the eighth
“head” of Revelation describes a revived form of Islam headed by
the alleged Islamic Antichrist.
“The only empire that fulfills the patterns necessary to
be considered the seventh empire is the [Moslem]
Turkish/Ottoman Empire” (The Islamic Antichrist, Joel Richardson, page
96, emphasis mine).
The problem, as usual, centers on a misunderstanding of the
genuine Kingdom of God. Oddly enough, those who put forth the Moslem Antichrist
system (including WND’s Richardson, former Moslem Walid Shoebat, and
others), accurately recognize the Biblically revealed chronology of the six
Old Testament era kingdoms of the world as Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia,
Greece, and Rome. However, the prophet Daniel plainly indicates that
after the last four kingdoms (Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome) have come to
pre-eminence, the next kingdom to rise is clearly the Kingdom of God, which is
conclusively computed to be the seventh kingdom:
“And in the days of these kings shall the God of
heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed”
(Daniel 2:44).
Thus, the effort to make the original Islamic Caliphate into
the seventh kingdom is fatally flawed, as the Mohammedan advance
was decisively stopped in 732 AD by Christian forces in France – thus it
can hardly be said that kingdom will “never be destroyed.” The
point is, Daniel’s prophecy points directly to the heavenly kingdom of
God, established by JESUS
CHRIST, which is eternal – to say nothing of the fact it
arrived “in the days of these kings.”
Although the idea of the misinterpreted Scriptures
concerning the beast power is mistakenly associated with Islam, the religious
menace of Islam, is indeed prominent in Bible prophecy. Moreover, the Twin
Timelines phenomenon, in which various historical cycles recur as if
later generations are following an invisible “script,” does include
an Islamic dimension.
Islam, and the nations it has impacted, shows up in the
power structure Scripture describes as Ten Kings. Contrary to the myth
of a European superstate (the so called Revived Roman Empire comprised
of ten kingdoms), this cluster of kingdoms is not the beast itself,
but it is aligned with the beast kingdom.
“And the ten horns which thou sawest [on the head of
the beast] are Ten Kings, which have received no kingdom as
yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast” (Revelation
17:12).
This is an important distinction, as aberrant prophecy
doctrine has long asserted this Ten King federation – which
is imaged as ten horns which are on the head of the beast –
somehow forms the beast itself. The False Prophets of 7th
Day Adventism, for example, have consistently missed the fact the
Scriptures explicitly state the power of the beast is related to its attributes
which include “the feet of a bear” (Revelation 13:2), as well as
the “mouth of a lion” and the characteristics of “a leopard”
– emblems of the very same beast empires which preceded the fourth beast
seen in the writings of the prophet Daniel.
Revelation tells us that, at some point in the chronological
development of the already established beast kingdom, these Ten Kings add
their collective power to that of the beast kingdom.
“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and
to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast” (Revelation 17:17).
This is simply an astonishing prophetic word, as this
has already occurred, and very, very few believers are aware of the
details. The Ten Kings Are Ten Arab Powers, which are linked
together because of their hatred of the Lamb of God, as well as the body
of Christ, and the contemporary state of Israel.
“These have one mind, and shall give their
power and strength unto the beast” (Revelation 17:13).
Most people are aware of the connection between the Arab
sheikhdoms which export oil to the entire world, but very few are
cognizant of the complexities of the industrial world’s reliance upon
carbon fuels. A probe of the subject of the history of oil invariably reveals a
bewildering array of identities, trade groups, and political and religious
factionalism, indicating the history of oil and its role in transportation,
economics, industry, and war is a very sophisticated subject.
When the Cold War was still raging between the Soviet Union
and America, in a Temporal Recapitulation of the Old Testament
era conflict between Syria and Egypt, the economic
power of the Arab control of oil became crucial. Familiar names such as Saudi
Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates began to be
associated with the legendary wealth of Texas oil barons. As the then backward
Bedouins embarked on a crash course of modernization made possible by the new
found revenue of oil, the Arabs began to view the Western dependency on
petroleum as a weapon which could be used to influence nations that did not
share their ancient animosity towards Jews and the young state of Israel.
“These shall hate the whore….”
(Revelation 17:16).
After an Arab coalition of armies was handed a humiliating
defeat in 1967 – in a war in which Israeli forces trounced the aggressors
in only 6 days – the Arab nations sought to regroup with even more
powerful military hardware largely purchased from Russia. Simultaneously, more
extreme Moslem states urged the oil sheikhdoms to use their economic leverage
to coerce America and her allies to cease support for Israel. By 1973, the
Islamic oil producers were ready to try again militarily, and they agreed to rally
their nations behind Syria and Egypt, whose armies
were to lead the way in a surprise attack on the Jewish state. Neither Egypt
nor Syria were oil exporters, nor members of the Organization
of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), but Islamic honour was at
stake.
The Moslem militias caught Israel by surprise, even as OPEC
simultaneously reduced oil exports to the USA, Europe, and Japan in
co-ordination with the war effort. After it became evident the Jews were unable
to quickly repel the invasion as they did in the 6 day war in 1967, and it
became clear the Russians were steadily resupplying the Arab
armies, Israel was in real trouble. As the war dragged on, Washington was
reluctant to intervene and resupply Israel with desperately needed war material
(including fuel derived from the dwindling oil supply) as America’s
economy still depended on the Arab oil – to say nothing of the threat of
a direct confrontation with the Soviet Union, which raised the very real
possibility of World War III waged with nuclear weapons.
Then President Richard Nixon, distracted by
the Watergate scandal, his imminent impeachment, and the hugely unpopular war
in Vietnam, planned to fly in supplies to Israel under cover of darkness, but
logistical difficulties exposed the effort, and American planes with supplies
inadvertently arrived in broad daylight. The Arab oil sheikhdoms were
furious. They were already angry, as fellow OPEC member Iran
broke ranks with their plan, when the Shah of Iran opportunistically
grabbed a portion of the market share the Arabs had sacrificed by the oil
embargo.
Traditional rivals with Saudi Arabia, many
still fail to realize the Iranians are not Arab, as their ethnic
heritage is Indo-European. As the Israeli military then made significant
progress in battle (with the Egyptians eventually finding themselves completely
surrounded by Israeli forces) and, as the Arabs saw their oil revenues
plummeting, Russian pilots were positioned to intervene and defend the Moslem
armies they had armed. Russia was about to directly fight the Israelis, but in
an extremely tense series of communications between America and Moscow, a cease
fire was called.
As the tensions slowly diminished, the Arab oil kings knew
that radical Islamic governments would continue to urge them to use their oil
as a weapon, and this pressure had been applied repeatedly; but aggressive
Moslem nations such as Algeria, Yemen, Egypt, Syria and others do not export
oil – so the lost revenues would not affect them. The Arab oil
kings had been adamantly urged by radical Islamists to use their oil as a
weapon against Israel ever since the 6 day war in 1967 – and the pressure
to use oil as a weapon continued to increase. Thus, in 1968, they formed an
exclusively Arab cartel within OPEC to deal with the problem.
“In January 1968 they formed the Organization Of Arab
Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC) with the object of insulating the
production and sale of oil from politics. Membership of the new organization
was confined to Arab countries whose principal export was oil, a requirement
which operated to shut out those with radical governments” (Arabia, The
Gulf, And The West, JB Kelly, 1980, page 329).
The Scriptures tell us that three of the Ten
King’s agenda of hatred directed towards the Little Horn is
thwarted, even as the imagery in the Scriptures detailing what Daniel sees
describes three of the ten as “plucked up.”
“Then I would know the truth ….of the ten horns that
were in [the Beast’s] head, and of the other which came up, and before
whom three fell” (Daniel 7:19,20)
However, when heaven’s messenger explains what Daniel
was seeing, the language is nuanced, as the prophet is told the Little Horn
will “subdue” three of the Ten Kings.
While “plucked up” (as used in Daniel 7:8) sounds like a physical
destruction (as in revolution, assassination, or some other overt form of
neutralization), the term subdue (as used in Daniel 7:24) is
quite consistent with attributes from the False Prophet side of the
Spirit of Antichrist, whose power is to capture, lure, or beguile.
“The ten horns are ten kings that shall arise, and another
shall rise after them; and he shall subdue three kings”
(Daniel 7:24).
Christian Media has expended a considerable amount of
time and effort articulating how the attributes of the hemispheric half of the
Beast – known as the False Prophet -- are characterized by allure,
temptation, and the ability to take captive those “who
dwell on the earth” (Revelation 13:14). The Scriptures demonstrate how
that wicked Spirit, which represents Hell (a place of captivity),
is able to ensnare the world through their own desires, which ignites a process
that ultimately results in the Death inherent in the Spirit of
Antichrist.
This mystical process shows the Spiritual presence known as Antichrist
(representing Death) and False Prophet (representing Deception)
are two symbiotic Spiritual projections emanating out of the Dragon. Revelation
describes them in the following terms:
“He that leadeth into captivity [and] he
that killeth with the sword” (Revelation 13:10).
Because the three founders of the Ten
King alliance valued their wealth more than they desired the
destruction of the Jewish state, the Scriptures reduce the end result to the
word subdue. The fact is, in order to protect their massive oil
revenue from the political fanaticism found in Islamic states which reviled
Israel, when the three most conservative oil states founded OAPEC
to close out the radicals (as well as non-Arab oil producers in OPEC), they
also reserved a veto power over the membership.
“As an additional precaution, it was also laid down that
membership should be dependent upon the approval of the three
founding members, a condition which served to keep the refractory Iraqis
out” (Arabia, The Gulf, And The West, JB Kelly, page 329).
Thus, the three founding members of the Ten
King oil cartel of OAPEC, protected their enormous wealth from
other Arab oil producers who consistently pushed to use the oil embargo as a
weapon against Israel and her friends. Further, since those three states
of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Libya insisted on that membership proviso
(which also served to isolate the ambitions of Iraq), Saddam Hussein’s
invasion of Kuwait – and the subsequent adamant effort by George
HW Bush to rescue the oil producer, comes into a sharper focus.
By 1973, the drive to force OAPEC to use oil as a weapon had
become irresistible; as Egypt and Syria finally
convinced the Ten Kings of OAPEC they would be able to overcome
the Jewish state – if the oil sheiks were to cooperate with their
plan. Ironically, OAPEC (which had originally been structured to resist
the Islamic push to use oil for political gain) had become fully weaponized.
The subsequent Yom Kippur war (launched on October 6, 1973 - which was the
Jewish holy day) almost succeeded.
After the cease fire of the Yom Kippur war, the Ten
King OAPEC Arab cartel continued to lose some of their enormous oil
revenues to Iran, their fellow oil exporter in OPEC. Islamic factions (led by
the Ayatollahs) would shortly overthrow the Shah (who was dying of cancer), but
the damage to the Arab finances was already done. Clearly committed to Israel,
America’s cards were on the table. Still stinging from the debacle, but
anxious to mend fences with the USA, the Arabs negotiated a secret deal with
America. President Nixon dispatched a high level financial expert to negotiate
a new deal, which remained a secret for over 40 years.
By 1974, oil prices had quadrupled, and both America and the
Arabs were hoping to resume their earlier cordial relationship. On the Arab
side, a year after the war, Saudi King Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud received US Treasury Secretary William Simon
who was secretly dispatched by President Nixon.
“The basic framework [of the new deal] was
strikingly simple. The U.S. would buy oil from Saudi Arabia and provide the
kingdom military aid and equipment. In return, the Saudis would plow billions
of their petrodollar revenue back into Treasuries and finance America’s
spending” (The Untold Story Behind Saudi Arabia’s 41-Year U.S. Debt
Secret, Andrea Wong, Bloomberg).
As the largest Arab oil exporter, Saudi Arabia
led the way for the Ten Kings of OAPEC. Agreeing to the condition
that a massive amount of Arab oil money would find its way into the American
financial system, the Arabs insisted on total secrecy because of concerns their
fellow Moslems would harshly criticize them, perhaps fueling Islamic
revolutionary movements claiming the crown’s wealth was finding its way
into Jewish hands.
As part of the deal, the Arabs required all oil purchases
be conducted in dollars – a stupendous stipulation which,
in effect, made America the money changer of the entire world for oil
transactions. The economic clout associated with this condition reaffirmed the
United States as the premier destination for all international transactions
– and the power, authority, and prestige vested in our monetary systems
were ensured for decades to come.
At this juncture, it’s instructive to note the
identification of the Ten Kings with OAPEC was made public in 1992
– yet the Christian prophecy establishment systematically ignored the
truth. Writing on the same subject, my first published prophecy book Beyond
Babylon, stated the following:
“While many people have heard of OPEC, The Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries, few individuals realize that the Arab oil states
have formed their own Organization of Arab petroleum Exporting Countries,
OAPEC, within OPEC”
“In 1973, shortly before the Egyptian army invaded Israel
provoking the Yom Kippur was, all ten foreign ministers of the
Arab oil countries (OAPEC) met to discuss the possible use of oil as a weapon
to change America policy” (Beyond Babylon, James Lloyd, 1992, page 87)
Even though I shouted it from the housetops on international
shortwave radio, satellite radio, four national speaking tours, significant
volumes of direct mail, and every media interview I could obtain, the
establishment continues to this very day to regurgitate the fictional
scenario which impedes the truth of the identities presented in the present
work. To put it another way, it is self evident that the fix is in.
“These [Ten Kings] have one mind, and shall give
their power and strength unto the beast. For God hath put in their hearts to
fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until
the words of God shall be fulfilled” (Revelation 17:13, 17)

Christian Media also has a regularly issued companion
letter commenting on the material seen in TWIN TIMELINES Part XXVIII.
The latest edition of that letter (entitled the Christian Median MINISTRY
STATUS REPORT), has even more prophetic projections concerning the Prophetic
Parallels – with a significant emphasis on how the rise of Donald
Trump mirroring Jehu in II Kings 10 (including his clash with
Jezebel/Hillary Clinton), is a Temporal Recapitulation of many
Biblical Prophecies. Further, Christian Media has an eye-opening,
on-demand video elaborating on the crucial facts seen in the
above article —
which also includes predictions concerning the enormous turn of events
associated with the current Trump phenomenon. However, the enemy has already
sown tares in this vineyard, and we choose not to provide the website links
here, as those who think they’re doing God service are tirelessly trying
to excise the truth from the Internet.
Viewing of the online video on this subject is completely
free (as is the receipt of this weekly Communique), and we greatly
desire as many as possible will see it (a new video will replace it in another
week), but to examine this subject further, we ask for a green light from you
to send you the link. Further, because there are many vested interests which
are threatened by the content the Christian Media ministry provides,
regular efforts are made to penetrate our ranks – including hacker
attacks. Incredibly, we’ve already proven that “Christian”
parties have actually hired hackers to take down our websites (Galatians 4:29).
Thus, we desire to weed out those who are insincere about further examinations
of the truth of the Gospel, so we send the links to our Internet materials via
surface mail.
As we move through the Spiritual wilderness behind the veil
of this world, even our Internet domains are subject to be seized by the dark
powers, so we urge all those who hear the voice of the LORD in these Communiques
to seek the LORD while He may yet be found. As those who have inherited
the light of God through Christ’s marvelous work,
“[We] must work the works of him that sent [us], while it
is day: the night cometh, when no man can work” (John 9:4).
To get our current Internet links, and receive full access
to Christian Media materials, simply reply to this email with the word YES!
in the subject line, and your name and postal mailing address
in the body of the email, and we’ll send you the links to the multiple
websites Christian Media operates -- which freely host extensive written
prophetic material, multiple radio shows, and the video related
to the above prophecy article.
If you’ve already responded with a YES! and
your name and mailing address after receiving a prior issue of this
Internet periodical, you do not need to reply again, as the links we send you
through surface mail provide you with an offline record on how to access all of
our websites.
In case any of our friends missed it, we again note an
important feature of the ChristianMediaNetwork dot com radio
stream. It’s called a phone bridge, and people who have no access
to the Internet can call on their telephone and listen to the CMN radio
stream over the phone, at any hour. Long distance call rates apply, but if
you have flat rate calling, or you just want to listen for an hour or so (the
radio version of our weekly 2 hour video The Apocalypse
Chronicles runs daily at 9 AM and 6 PM Pacific time), our 24/7 live
radio stream can be heard by anyone with a telephone. To listen, just call 641/741/1026.
Alternatively, to be removed from the database sending out
our information, simply reply with the word REMOVE in the subject
line. Please note that after we had committed to utilizing Google Groups
as one of the systems we use to deliver our letters, we learned that Google
(and other major Internet powers) is hostile to the Gospel – to the
degree they consistently utilize technical chicanery to thwart our
communications. Thus, we are consistently blacklisted by vessels of dishonour,
even as many believers are so lukewarm they value their commercial
relationships with evil (such as an account with Antichrist OnLine,
or the notoriously leftist empire of Google and Socialist bodies such as Facebook)
more than they value the truth. The LORD sees it all.
