Independent States), and also Russia’s trade and military agreements with the Muslim world, especially Iran and Libya. A Russian trade route through Iran, from the Caspian Sea to the Indian Ocean, was officially opened in 2002 allowing trade with India and the Far East to reduce travel time by thirteen days Finally the fourth empire is to have 10 divisions represented by the ten toes of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream and the 10 horns of Daniel’s dream. The “little horn,” Antichrist, is to arise from among these 10 horns. From other Scriptures, such as Revelation chapters 13 and 17, it is clear that the “little horn” of Dan 7 will be the Antichrist, and it will be he who will head up the Roman Empire at the time of Christ’s second coming. After this Christ will set up His everlasting kingdom. Seventh Day Adventists claim the Roman Empire broke up into ten kingdoms in AD476, but history does not support this view. Scripture says, “In the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed”(Dan.2:44). The ten kings and the Antichrist must be alive when Christ returns. Preterists claim the “ten horns” and “little horn” were Roman rulers from Pompey (63BC) to Emperor Vespasian (AD70), and that Christ returned“spiritually” in AD70. They also claim the “ten horns” represent the ten Roman provinces, whereas there were actually 54 Roman provinces. When Christ returns, “every eye shall see him” (Rev.1:7). This did not happen in AD70. The Harlot Woman Rides the Beast (Revelation Ch. 17) From Rev 17 we learn that the fourth beast comes to power under the guidance of a “harlot woman.” Also, from Rev13 and 19 we can see that Antichrist has assistance from a “false prophet” who has miraculous powers. The harlot woman can be identified from clues given in Scripture. 1) She is international and political. She is involved with the “kings of the earth”and sits upon “many waters”, which we are told are “peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues (languages)” (Rev.17:1,2,15). 2) She is religious and idolatrous for she is “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS” (Rev.17:5). In John’s day the “mystery religions” of Rome were well known. Also, idolatry in Scripture is called spiritual whoredom and adultery (Ezek.16:1-36; 23:1-30; Hos.1:2; 4:12-19). 67 The Times of the Gentiles

She is “arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls”(Rev.17:4). 4) She holds a golden cup in her hand, “full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication (idolatry)”(Rev.17:4). 5) She is a persecutor of Christians and is “drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus” (Rev.17: 6). 6) She sits on seven mountains and is “that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth”, ie in AD 96 (Rev.17:9,18). 7) She identifies with the beast which we know is both the Roman Empire and its final ruler. She obviously has influence over the beast for she holds the reins (Rev.17:3, 11). When all these clues are combined, we can come to no other conclusion than that the harlot woman is apostate Christendom headed up by the Church of Rome. The Church of Rome is international and political. It is a religious and idolatrous system. Its people are “made drunk with the wine of her fornication”, being stupified by superstitious material items such as medals, crucifixes, and rosary beads etc. The golden cup of the Mass is celebrated as a continual sacrifice, which constitutes a blasphemous, idolatrous act. Rome is known as the “city of seven hills” and was reigning over the kings of the earth when John wrote the Book of Revelation in AD96 ! In the days of Imperial Rome the Caesars were the head of the pagan mystery religious system, claimed deity, and demanded their subjects offer sacrifices to them on pain of death. Many thousands of Christians died rather than submit to Caesar worship. During the 1,006 years of the “Holy Roman Empire” the papacy appointed emperors, beginning with Charlmagne the king of Germany, and manipulated the secular powers to destroy “heretics”(Christians) and Jews. Today, with the revival of the old Roman Empire, we see it being guided (ridden) by the Church. It is now a well established historical fact that the Vatican worked with Hitler and provided the “Ratline” escape route for Nazi war criminals after WW2! The Vatican Bank has been used to store Nazi gold, and Europe has been called “Fortress Christendom”. 68
