"As a matter of moral responsibility – and regional and global security and prosperity – we cannot abandon the people of Afghanistan,” said the U.N. Secretary today. "Afghans need peace, hope, and help, and they need it now."
Many Christians are now aware of the fact that a newly installed giant rainbow-colored animal sculpture outside the United Nations headquarters in Manhattan is similar to the end times beast described by John in Revelation.
"Revelation 13:2: [2] And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
“Notice that when the Antichrist is described as an animal, he’s described as a leopard. He has the feet of a bear and the mouth of a lion, but he’s a leopard," explains Richard Jordan. "You remember what Jeremiah 13 said about a leopard? Verse 23 reads, ‘Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.’ You know how you identify a leopard? By his spots.
“If they get that 'mark of the beast', when the wrath of God comes out, for those birds that have that spot of the beast God puts a spot of leprosy on them. And it's in their garments. That’s why Jude 23 says, [23] And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
"The 'mark of the beast' also has to do with worshipping this political leader who's going to take over the government. He's going to control the monetary system in the world, where you have to have this mark in order to have money to buy or sell.
"There's going to be monetary reset; a deliberate destruction of the money system on a global scale. These are going to be devastating times for the world.
"The 'mark of the beast' is mentioned eight times in Revelation and there are two beasts. As John writes in Revelation 13:11, [11] 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.
"The first beast is the Antichrist and the second beast is the false prophet. Of the first beast, Revelation 13 begins: [1] And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
"The first beast is not just one man; he has a whole system he's operating and he's the head. By the way, the leopard, bear and lion is the beast back in Daniel 7. When that fourth beast comes in Daniel 7, the residue of their kingdoms are all assimilated into the Antichrist. When he comes up in the earth to rule and reign he draws people together.
"He turns out to be a bad guy later in his career but he starts out by promising hope, wealth, power. In our day we would call it the Deep State, the elite, the cabal. He controls the governments, media and religion because he's going to be worshipped. He's this character that has this whole vast system of governmental global control.
"Then the next beast comes on and he causes the world to worship the first beast. You know how he's described like a lamb? Jesus is the lamb of God. We're talking about religion. He works miracles. In verse 13 he makes fire come down from heaven. He's a religious figure that professes to perform supernatural events to intervene in history, working miracles with demonstrable events and so forth.
"The first one is a political leader but the second guy, where the 'mark of the beast' comes from, is this religious leader to deceive people with this religious system he uses.
"Revelation 19:20 says, [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
"You see somebody doing miracles you need to watch out. People are going to do miraculous events to cause others to follow them into a religious system that's designed to make them worship someone who is a false christ.
"There is also a real conspiracy associated with the 'mark of the beast.' How does he deceive them? With religion. Paul says in II Corinthians 11, [13] For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
[14] And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
[15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
"Revelation 17 talks about this woman, this religious system the Antichrist uses to come to power: [2] With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
[3] So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
[4] And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
[5] And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
"You want a conspiracy, there's the real conspiracy! It allows the Antichrist to take over and develop the Deep State system he'll use to try and deceive the whole world.
"Revelation 17:8 says, [8] The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
"There's a spiritual conspiracy that goes on across the earth today to deceive people away from the truth of God's Word into a vain religious system designed to promote and deceive the human race into accepting what Satan's program is all about.
"Paul talks about the man of sin, the son of perdition, being manifested. He writes in II Thessalonians 2:5, [5] Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
[6] And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
[7] For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
"Mystery Babylon already works and is going today, but there's something restraining it, holding it back, and that something is the church the Body of Christ. Until God finishes forming the Body of Christ, this stuff can't take over. These things in the Book of Revelation, like the 'mark of the beast,' are part of the prophetic program."
