He will take the world by flatteries: Dan:11-32
Here are some of the names of the false prophet
The false prophet, the man of sin, the abomination of desolation, the son of perdition. Now let us not forget we are talking about the coming of the Lord and Paul warned the people not to be deceived.
Who is the beast? The Roman Empire represented by a man, a military general or whoever will be the head of the EEU (European Economic Union). Any nation that become a part of the (EEC) must commit to an alliance with the Treaties Of Rome. Who is the false prophet the man of sin? Papa, The Pope of Rome currently seated in Vatican City. What is the mark of the Bast? Sunday worship

2Thes:2-1,4 7-9 The man of sin must be revealed, the son of perdition, (or destruction) and a falling away first before the Lord can come.
8, And then shall that Wicked one be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, (OR HIS WORD) and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
9, Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
In Matt:24:3 15,16 21, 29-30; Jesus gave his disciples the same warning:
v-3, And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
v-4, And Jesus answered and said unto them, take heed that no man deceive you.5, For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
v-15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place whoso readeth let him understand.
v-16 then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains
v-21 for then shall be great tribulations such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
v-29 immediately after the tribulations of those days shall the sun be darkened and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.
v-30 then shall appear the sign of the son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Rev:13,11-12 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon v-12, And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
When the last Emperor of Rome, Romulus Augustus was defeated in 476 ad, this is when the deadly wound was afflicted, and in an attempt to revive itself, Rome merged with the Papacy; the Catholic Church, thus taking on a new look and name, The Holy Roman Empire. These two portray a religious and a secular government, this is the beast with two horns in (Rev:13-11,12).
This started the process to resuscitate the Old Roman Empire to bring it back to life. It was the Popes that managed to keep Rome alive through religious influences, during the healing process exercising the same pagan doctrine of the first beast whose power and authority came from the dragon, Satan the devil
Let us note that Rome not only ruled mentally, but spiritually as well imposing her false doctrine on the inhabitants of the earth which have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. Rev:17-2.
The doctrine never changed however, pagan worship was integrated into the Christian Church delivering the same poison with a different label to satisfy pagan worship that had been in existence before the birth of Jesus. The Winter Solstice became Christmas, The birth of the new Sun.
This is where we get Sunday, the Church at Rome worshiping the feast of the God of light Mithra. Remember in v-2 of this chapter it was the dragon that gave the beast his power and seat. This tells us the Roman Catholic Church doctrine is of the devil. Rev:12-9 Satan deceiveth the whole world
In Dan:11,31,36-37 the man of sin, although his present seat is in
Rome; Vatican City; his army will place
him in Jerusalem, pollute the sanctuary and take away the daily
sacrifice.
v-37 neither shall he regard the God of his fathers nor the desire of women nor regard any god; for he shall magnify himself above all.
In Rev:16,12-14,16 v-12 the Euphrates dries up to make way for the kings of the east, Russia and her allies China the Koreans and others, an army that consist of 200,000,000 men (Rev:9,14-16),
v-13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. (Notice in Rev:13-11): and we will come right back
Who are we talking about here, the same three spoken of in (Rev:16-13) both of these scriptures have one thing in common, something coming out of their mouth; which is the false doctrine of the Dragon going forth through out the world.
v-14 all this is leading to the kings of the earth and their armies to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
v-16 and he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon
In Zac:12-1 Jerusalem shall be as a cup of trembling unto the people round about in a siege. The angel of God will direct these armed nations to do battle round about it in the valley of Megiddo.
v-9 the Lord will in that day seek to destroy all nations that come against Jerusalem
Zac:14-2 the Lord will gather all nations against Jerusalem to fight
v-3 then shall the Lord go forth and fight against those nations:
Rev;17-12,18 these are the ten kings Daniel spoke of that would be around to fight against the Lord, these have one mind and will give their power and strength to the beast, but the Lord will destroy them all and set up an everlasting Kingdom on earth.
These ten kings are the ten toes Daniel spoke of that was on the great image in Dan:2,41-44
In Rev:19-11,21: And I saw heaven open and behold a white horse and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doeth judge and make war. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word Of God, and he brought the armies of heaven with him.
- v-15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations., and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the wine press with the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
- v-19 and I saw the beast and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the Lord took the beast and the false prophet and cast them both alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. .
- v-21 and the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth, and all the fowls were filled with their flesh. This conclude the gentile dynasty
In Is:66,23-24 the Lord is so kind to allow all that are alive during the thousand years as they come to worship before him to see the beast and the false prophet burn but not die neither shall their fire be quenched, as a reminder to all flesh, this is not a place you want to live burning in fire forever.
