88 ANTITHEOTOKOS<br />

<strong>The</strong> miraculous event <strong>of</strong> the second Pentecost must now be<br />

accomplished, implored and expected by you. Again, there will be<br />

descending upon the <strong>Church</strong> and upon all humanity miraculous<br />

tongues <strong>of</strong> fire.<br />

<strong>Orthodox</strong> commentators feel that the false prophet will be a cult leader<br />

that will bring fire down from heaven upon his followers in imitation <strong>of</strong><br />

the Pentecost.<br />

THE NEW TIMES:<br />

<strong>The</strong> Book <strong>of</strong> Daniel tells us that Antichrist will change the times,<br />

“And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear<br />

out the saints <strong>of</strong> the most High, and think to change times and laws: and<br />

they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing<br />

<strong>of</strong> time.” (Dan 7:25) <strong>The</strong> word “times” in apocalyptic language means<br />

years, for example time and times and the dividing <strong>of</strong> times means three<br />

and a half years. So, to change the times means to change the years or<br />

the calendar. Although Antichrist will first pretend to be Christ, yet<br />

after he deceives the great majority, he will start blaspheming the Holy<br />

Trinity, claiming that only he is God. He will try to wipe out anything<br />

that will remind the people with Christ, including the current calendar<br />

which tags the years as A.D. (Anno Domini, the year <strong>of</strong> the Lord.)<br />

Satan has started to prepare humanity for this. For, even now,<br />

politically correct writers, journalists and politicians have stopped using<br />

A.D., exchanging it for C.E. (Common Era) Antitheotokos is preparing<br />

her followers for the “new times” that Antichrist will announce:<br />

Prepare yourselves to live the Pasch <strong>of</strong> the new times. It is the Pasch<br />

prepared for you. It is the Pasch that awaits you at the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />

gloomy period <strong>of</strong> purification and the great tribulation in which you<br />

are now living.<br />

Soon, my sons, a new date will be celebrated.<br />

Antitheotokos even gives a hint <strong>of</strong> the new calendar that will be<br />

enforced when Antichrist establishes his kingdom, “New Era.” <strong>The</strong><br />

term currently in use now, “Common Era” is an intermediate name that<br />

I feel very strongly will be changed to “New Era” <strong>The</strong> fact that<br />

computers recognize only two digits for the year will make this change
