\par Volume IV \par Appendix \par \par The Woman on the Beast \par \par On Earth I Europe was unified first in an economic union, the European Common Market, and then a political union followed that was called European Union, or EU. A flag of blue with twelve stars was adopted as the EU\rquote s standard. The EU h ad two parliament buildings, one in Strasbourg, France, and the other in Brussels, Belgium. The Treaty of Rome of 1957 inaugurated the unification of Europe into an economic and political unity that not only adopted a single currency but reduced the par ticipatory nations into provinces with no longer independent, national sovereignty. \par But how can so vast an area, filled with so many different ethnicities and often conflicting aspirations, be unified into a single giant commonweal that the y all can willingly accept? What could possibly unify so many different pieces of the European puzzle? To commemorate the EU and promote acceptance and support, various ancient and classical myths and emblems were promoted, of which three soon gained wid e currency. One was Twelve Stars on a Field of Blue derived from the veneration of the Virgin Mary, the \'93Queen of Heaven.\'94 The second was the Tower of Babel, and the third was the Woman Riding the Beast. These emblems and symbols were chosen because they could be adapted to promoting the European Union\rquote s vision of peace and stability, a vision so grand it would, it was thought, overcome every age-old barrier of culture and language and mutual suspicion. \par As for the Woman Riding the Beast emblem, it should be noted that the first royal throne in Europe still existed, to be found in the ruins (partly reconstructed) of the royal palace of Knossos, Crete. Whether the throne was a queen \rquote s or a king\rquote s, it was clearly royal, and the Minoan kingship was the first such European royal power. The myth of Europa was, thus, approproriate, and was used to promote the EU. Europa, in Greek myth, which may have been derived from Minoan myth before the Gr eeks came to occupy formerly Minoan cities in Greece, was a beautiful young maiden who was abducted by the god Zeus in the form of a bull, carried to Crete on his back, and there the god-beast\rquote s rapes of Europa produced the royal line of Minos and more\emdash \'93glorious sons whose scepters shall hold sway over all men of the earth.\'94\emdash according to ancient poets singing prophetically. Rapes of women by beasts was a popular Minoan theme in their national stories, for King Minos\rquote s wife was said to have impregnated by a bull and the famous Minotaur, the half-man, half-bull monster of the Labyrinth, was produced that later Theseus, hero of Athens, put to death. Thus, horrible bestiality supposedly produced the royal house of Minoan Crete (Greece), which was the fir st royal European family of historical account. Could any lasting good come of this forced rape of Europa by an immoral Greek deity? \par St. John the Divine, who was inspired by the Spirit of God while exiled to Patmos, a prison island in Gree ce during the first century after Christ in the Roman Empire, may have known about the myth of Europe, being so close to the source of it in neighboring Crete. In Chapter 17 of St. John\rquote s Revelation in which he wrote down the visions of the Apocalypse, or End of the World, a harlot rides a beast, and on her forehead is written "Mystery Babel.\'94 This \'93Mystery Babel\'94 may be a unified religious system that gives its support to the political system in return for its support of its own powers and privileges. According to the account in the Revelation, \'93Mystery Babel\'94 the harlot queen rides the beast\rquote s back, but the ten horns of the beast (powers within the beast\rquote s union of states) are hostile to Mystery Babel the Great Whore and will turn on her when the opportunity arises and destroy her. Why should the political power hate the religious power? It is obvious that the political power must detest having to share its throne and supreme power with ecclesiastical authority, which claims the greatest auth ority, as if seated upon God\rquote s own throne. Thus we see the fatal contradiction in this \'93union\'94 of political/cultural beast and Mystery Babel, the temporary, highly unstable mix of clay and iron that has gone to make a unified Europe. Yet before Mystery Babylon of Europe\rquote s unified religious system is destroyed by the political leadership, the beast will make war on the Lamb, Jesus Christ, when he returns to claim the Earth. \par There is additional reason why the political power of th e EU should hate the religious establishment: the EU is a thorough-going secular, humanist (man-centered) state. Secular power recognizes no authority but human political power, and rights and liberties are determined by purely human agencies and state priorites, not by any belief in a Supreme Being or His commandments. Anything religious is held with deep suspicion and, at best, is tolerated for the sake of maintaining unity. The accepted religion of the EU is a unified church of Moslems, New A g e adherents, Catholics, Protestants, Satanists, Gaea-Believers, Animal-Rights Activists, and Activist Homosexuals. Fundamentalists are rigorously excluded and persecuted by not only this church but the political system, being termed regressive elemen ts and terrorists. \par It is interesting that two claimants as world-states came into being at the same time. The United Nations was an international political and cultural union of over 140 nations that aspired to become an economic union as well\emdash something that it could not be\emdash in order to form a true world-state. Instituting a world tax on yet untaxed resources was supposed to create the financial basis for the world-state, but the tax was never successfully imposed and collected. Fai ling to secure for itself a viable economic base, the UN remained in existence yet was forced into the shadows as the EU gained ascendancy as the most viable and most powerful World-State after the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. EU leaders n a turally came to regard the United Nations as a rival and an unnecessary division of interests and withdrew much of their support, leaving the UN to much weaker, economically-undeveloped nations, so that even large bequests such as the billion dollar gift from Donald Trump of New York could not keep the UN from declining into a politically weak organization of Earth\rquote s poorest countries. Where the UN was useful to support EU policies and aims, it was used. Otherwise, the EU virtually ignored the UN and operated in its stead in reshaping the geopolitics of the globe. EU's economy being Earth\rquote s greatest, not even America could stop EU policies once the military forces of the EU were built up to rival American might. \par To return to the figure of t he Woman Riding the Beast, why did it prove so popular a symbol for the EU, both in its emerging state and then its final, constituted form? Every educated European with some smattering of Greek mythology would know of Europa, of course. With her na m e it was natural to associate her, this lovely maiden, with Europe. As for the beast, was there any reason to think that Europeans attached any significance there? Possibly not. It was a charming tale, in popular view, but it hardly carried the philo sophical and religious freight that St. John attached to it, if he was, questionably, thinking of the rape of Europa when he envisioned the Harlot or Great Whole riding the back of a great Beast. \par Though they may have given some thought to the mythology, sculptors and other artists were intrigued with the dramatic and pictorial qualities of the myth and loved to depict Europa in many different styles. David Hathaway, a late 20}{ \super th}{ and early 21}{\super st}{ century British evangelist, speaking in his mag azine, PROPHETIC VISION, identifies the Woman and the Beast as a representation of the godless regime of the EU, which is the venue for the Anti-Christ spoken of by John in the Revelation. In a German telephone card, Europa appeared as a blond , bar e -thighed femme fatale on the back on an ancient sculpture of a Minoan bull. Europa appeared long before on a 1948 German 5 mark note, depicted as a nude blond on the back of a bull. In 1979 the Berlin Wall portrayed a street painting of the Woman Ri ding a Beast. A 1992 Ecu coin also featured Europa, this time as a stout German matron! An U.K. 20 \'bd pence stamp in 1984, issued to commemorate the Second European Parliamentary elections, portrayed a charming Greek maiden in classical garb. In the year 2000 Europa appeared as a metal woman-on-beast sculpture outside the European Council Building in Brussels. These major appearances, noted by Mr. Hathaway, prove the enduring popularity of Europa as a symbol for a unified Europe. Perhaps the v a st legacy of the past, always close to the mind and senses of the modern European, speaks to the European taste in the figure of the bull. The primeval power and fertility of the bull may also be a part of the curious attraction the figure exerts. Wit h a woman seated on the bull, the image in all its stark drama and contrasts of massive, dangerous beast and beautiful woman seems complete\emdash for Europe, even superficially, is a striking amalgam of modernity and antiquity\emdash so that Europa and her bull-rapist-god is ageless. She can appeal to any time and era, just as she has appealed to framers of the European Union, whether anyone ponders the possible meaning of the rape or attaches prophetic significance. \par What significance, lastly, did St. John attach to the Woman Riding the Beast? Clearly, he took God\rquote s view which was one of absolute judgment. The Woman is a harlot, a whore called \'93Mystery Babel.\'94 This whore is a corrupt and evil religious system that has persecuted and \'93drunk\'94 the bl ood of the saints, or true believers in Jesus. As such she is judged and condemned by God. All those who worship her are also judged and condemned. For Mystery Babel is a rebellious, blasphemous system, deserving of divine wrath. \'93 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornications. And upon her forehead was a name written, \lquote MYSTERY, BABEL THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH\rquote \'94\emdash Rev. 17:4-5. Is it a mere coincidence that a recent EU poster promoting European unity, which David Hathaway calls attention to in the Winter 2001-2002 issue of PROPHETIC VISION, was modeled on Pieter Brueghel\rquote s famous painting, \'93 The Tower of Babel,\'94 and, moreover, is it just another coincidence that the new 12 billion dollar European Parliament Building in Strasbourg is modeled on the same Brueghel painting of the Tower of Babel? \par Certainly, it is scraping the surface to trace Europa back to Crete and leave her there. She w as a pre-Greek, pre-Classical era immigrant to Crete, as the myth clearly states, carried to this much-fabled isle of Europe across the Great Sea by Zeus in his bull-form. Where did she first live? She was a daughter of the king of Sidon, a Phoenician city of great seafarers that traded with all the civilized East. The Phoenicians, pre-dating the Greeks and perhaps even the Minoans, were Caananites, worshipers of Baal and other fertility deities such as Astarte (from which we get Easter). Astarte wa s a goddess of love, easily identified by the Greeks as Aphrodite. To Egyptians, female deities such as Hathor and Isis abounded, but found less currency abroad, since the Egyptians were zenophobic and almost reclusive home-bodies (only in the full-blo w n Roman Empire was Isis worship successfully exported abroad to Rome and other major centers of population). To Asians, Astarte was well-known from the earliest stages of civilization all over the well-traveled, cosmopolitan East. The center of the m other-goddess, or goddess of love and fertility, was, of course, Babel the Queen City or Metropolis of the East. Semiramis, the so-called Queen of the Heaven, had her cult temples and priesthood there, and she was the semi-divine wife of the demi-god N imrod, who built the Tower of Babel. So Europa was a Canaanite, and the culture that produced her story that was later adapted to Minoan and Greek legend was Eastern, Canaanite, and Mesopotamian, even Babelite at the root. Witness the bull-gods of th e Babylonians and Assyrians, standing guard at palace entrances and emblazoned on the Walls of the Gate of Ishtar (Astarte) in Babel. It was, then, a natural and inevitable thing for a Cretan or Greek to put god and bull, bull and woman, together in the itinerant tale of Europa. \par \par \par Volume IV \par Appendix \par \par \par Pre-Adamic Races/ Demons \par Table A\emdash Origin of Demons \par Pre-Adamic races attained a very advanced level of civilization, creating the Mukalian and \par Atlantean civilizations. Culture, sculpture, painting, music, philosophy (which included mathematics), architecture, entertainment, as well as science and engineering flourished at extremely sophisticated levels. \par Long afer they were gone, glimmers of their greatness persisted. Post-Mabbul Ancient Egypt (Mizraim), Sumer, Akkad, Babel, Assyria, Elam, Media, Persia, and others, were based on fragments of these civilizations passed on from Pre-Mabbul human civilizations and contact w i th the former citizens of the once great empires of Mukalia and Atlantis. Planetary travel for commercial and military purposes was well-organized, and space travel was accomplished. All the material basis for this civilization, except for what refug ees could carry away, was lost when the these continents were broken up and destroyed. Longevity was enjoyed, the upper classes and royalty attaining life spans of 20,000 years or more. Science \par had experimented with life forms and species, to such an extent that humans and beasts \par were combined in their characteristics. This experimentation and mutation was undertaken for \par entertainment at first and then to extend life itself, as new bodies were desired for ones that had \par aged beyond beauty and use. Royalty often incorporated the genes of royal hawks and other raptors, \par or wolves and other major carnivores. Parks full of the most grotesque and \'93unnatural\'94 monsters entertained royalty and aristocracy but sometimes these monsters weremore than half-human oid. Centaurs were an example of what the science of genetics could create. Genetic scientists vied with each other to produce the greatest attractions in this line that could gain them royal favor at court, with \par all the things that went along with royal favor. Lovers of vice and violence, adept at genetic \par experimentation that flouted God\rquote s design for his creation, arrogant and proud skeptics denying \par God\rquote s authority and existence, these races sealed their doom and brought God\rquote s wrath upon them when they preyed upon the poor, manipulated the seed of life to produce monsters, and in all they did challenged God to do anything about it. \par \par But divine judgment, though it tarried, fell with a speed they could not escape. Most all the inhabitants of these ci vilizations were disembodied when their countries were destroyed; and since they were human-Luciferan beings their spirits continued to live on indefinitely. Their spirit-forms, or shapes and characteristics of their disembodied states, closely resem b led scorpions, tarantulas, snakes, bats, even white worms. Most were small, but the larger they were the more they dominated the others in a hierarchical fashion. Power, rank, and status were most highly prized. Chief characteristics of these Pre-Ad a mic spirits: (1) wickedness (they evidenced all the depraved instincts and desires of their vice-loving embodiments, growing worse, not better, as they aged; (2) cunning intelligence (which was greatly added to by the data of vast lifespans and experi ence; (3) arrogance (they never could forget the greatness of their former estate in life; (4) hatred (they hated Lucifer, having been deceived by him to the extent they \par fought a losing battle for him against Almighty God and lost their lives, their dominions, and even their bodies, gaining only eternal damnation in the bargain with Lucifer) and spite, which energized them against \par the Almighty God that had overthrown them, to do Him whatever injury they still could, even though their ultimate fate was utterly hopeless; (5) resentment (they were forced, being weaker, to submit to Lucifer as their master in their state of disembodiment, carrying out his agenda whether the y wanted to or not; (6) anxiety (they always knew that their utter destruction would come in the Lake of Fire once Lucifer was defeated for the last time; (7) dominating (they always sought to enslave their human hosts and use them to carry out destruc tive or depraved acts); (8) most likely to be located in primary emotions, or in injured or warped psychologies (they were empowered, being nearly powerless themselves, by their hosts\rquote anger, lust, fear, resentment, anger, rage, anxiety), and (9) concealment (they found they were most effective if the host were unaware that they had taken up \'93residence\'94). Gradually braided or intertwined with the host\rquote s personality and thought-patterns, they could operate without the host ever becoming aware an alien entity had taken him over and was his master. Only the \par most foolish of these species craved self-display to the point that usually drove the possession into conscious recognition by the host and the host\rquote s subsequent frantic search for relief and help (exorcism). \par \par Pre-existing the life of Adam, the demon races were roaming the earth until mankind increased to the point where, with Adam\rquote s fall opening the door to them, new homes\emdash new, captive bodies of human beings, that is-- were available to them. The Ante-Diluvians who died or eventually perished in the Great Mabbul provided residences for the demon spirits, but this source, of course, dried up instantly when the Almighty drowned the earth. God\rquote s angels imprisoned the Ante-Diluvian souls of men, women, and children who drowned in Hades, in the Underworld. That left the demon spirits no habitations, and they were obliged to roam the watery surface of the world until the waters rolled back and dry land once more appeared. As the post-Mabbul Civil izations developed, wickedness increased, and again the demon spirits found entrance into many evil individuals. Demonization of human beings was not in God\rquote s plan; but it was allowed for a time. God had built safeguards and walls in human beings against such a thing, but human beings tore the walls down through indulgence in great sins and violent deeds. \par \par Table B, Use of Demons \par The Almighty possessed the foreknowledge to know that the Pre-Adamic races would fail, and so he foreordained a use of them, that though they would serve the Enemy, their evil would be to the advantage of God, ultimately. \par It is one of a number of outstanding mysteries why Almighty God allowed them to be created in the first place. Luciferan, a mixture of humanoids and Titans, these races could not help but absorb Lucifer\rquote s \par characteristics and obsessions, and, thus, degenerate into all forms of wickedness and self-destructive vice. \par Lucifer, for some unknown reason, was allowed to indulge his dreams of empire-b uilding, each bigger and more splendid than the former in order to gratify his increasing lust for worshippers of himself, but only for a time. His grand experiment inflicted upon the Twin Earths failed disastrously, as had his rebellion in heaven itself . Now the results--humanoid-Titans reduced to disembodied demons-- remained to haunt the Earths. For no purpose? On the contrary, there was one, but it was hidden in God\rquote s mind. Only at this point did the Almighty step in, and restrict the demons to Earth I\emdash a single clew that they still had a purpose to fulfill in God\rquote s master plan. The Titans and number of their monsters, except for some thousands of Titans that escaped alive off the planets, were chained and imprisoned in a section Hades, in the Underworld. As for Earth I\rquote s stock of demons, they soon found they could not escape serving Lucifer in their living death, even as they had served him in life. Only this servitude was far worse than the former, being one of abject slavery to a master they \par now thoroughly hated for having led them to their doom. In this most spiteful and hateful \par state, the demons served as Lucifer\rquote s subjects, which he used in a variety of ways. Though the Almighty had built into Adamic humans safeguards against outside spiritual domination from alien \par spirits, Lucifer found he could take partial control at least of human beings, psychologically, through demonization. Sins, traumas, vices, witchcraft, and drugs were ways human beings opened themselves up to demonic pene tration and demonic-Luciferan control. Demonization usually destroyed the individual, but \par not all at once\emdash it must be a gradual process or it cannot succeed. Almost always he human beings were not aware it had taken place, and were deceived by the demons to think they were not possessed, when in fact they were enslaved and being held captive to satisfy the demons\rquote lusts and cravings. Covert control worked best; when the demons surfaced and became overt in expression, the possessed individual usually, if he or should could, sought to be rid of the demons however it could be brought about. Of course, there \par was no getting free unless Almighty God stepped in and answered the victim\rquote s prayer for \par deliverance. Perhaps, this best suggests why demons were allowed to exist in the first place: they drove individuals who might not have sought God to seek God for deliverance. Demons, then, were \par a form of \'93severe mercy.\'94 Demons also served to move Lucifer\rquote s program forward a bit \par faster, thus moving the day of his final Doom closer. He could not resist using such wicked \par and cunning entities, but he paid the price of hastening his own end with them. And the demons were only to happy to help hasten it as best they could, their spirits filled with anger and vengefulness \par toward him. With both demons and fallen angels serving as his thralls, and their numbers \par ranging in the billions, Lucifer sat on the throne of a truly vast organization that was not only powerful but equipped to do great damage to his Enemy\rquote s creation, the Twin Earths and the Twin Universes. \par For all their use to him, demon spirits were greatly despised by Lucifer. Being non-angelic, he naturally regarded them as greatly inferior to his own peerage, and naturally all his angelic cohor ts shared his dislike and contempt for them. It hardly helped them that they had taken such horrible forms as disembodied spirits. Though Lucifer was himself reduced to something of a medieval gargoyle\rquote s grotesque appearance, raptor bird mixed with scal ed dragon and reptile, the ante-diluvian spirits were far more odious in form and appearance. Foulness was a chief characteristic too, as they stank abominably and were in every way poisonous, blasphemous, spiteful, and obscene. For that reason they became known, by humans, as \'93unclean spirits.\'94 Though useful to an extent, Lucifer tolerated them but planned to exile the whole species to the farthest corner of the Universes when he had finally gained the upperhand over the Almighty\emdash a hope he never would relinquish though it was palpably absurd to hope he could win since he had always been vanquished, even by his fellow angels remaining loyal to their Maker, notably Michael and Gabriel. \par \par Not knowing of their ancient origin, humans conceived the idea t hat the demon spirits they encountered were fallen angels, but that could not be. Fallen angels inhabited the atmosphere, in realms and principalities that Lucifer ruled; they required no physical bodies, since they had never possessed bodies. Demon sp i rits, however, were disembodied, and sought entrance into human bodies to replace those they had lost. Demon spirits, when they took up residence in human beings, never found their tenure very comfortable, since human beings were created in the image of G od, something they had never known for themselves. How much less likely were fallen angels to enjoy residence in beings created in the image of God, when they had not been so created. Even in a fallen state, human beings reminded angels and demon spirit s of what they could never be\emdash and the reminder was odious to them. Being of a higher estate originally, the fallen angels found the divine image bestowed on man all the more hard to gaze upon. Though lacking in this one instance, both demons and fallen a ngels prided themselves that they were much older and of supposedly more exalted rank in the hierarchy of created beings. The fallen angels could pride themselves that they were (at least for a time) heavenly beings. The demon spirits could pride themse l ves that, though not created in heaven, they had once ruled the earth in great splendor and power in a time that vastly pre-dated Adam. Certainly, both fallen angels and demon spirits exhibited and indulged such pride when they dealt with human beings. But underneath their pride was a grudging envy and spiteful jealousy, for they knew man possessed the greater rank and potential, by virtue of being created in God\rquote s image. This envy, spite, and jealousy provoked great hostility in them toward human being s to the point where they would do anything to degrade and destroy the human race, even if it meant heaping more divine punishment upon themselves. What was the image of God that provoked so much hostility and evil-doing on their part? It was nothing le ss than the capacity to share the very heart of of the Godhead in the most personal and intimate way\emdash something angels could only wonder and speculate about but could never, never know intimately. Human beings could be filled with God without being annihilated\emdash a thing that no angel could possibly claim. God had given them such capacity. Angels, demons, and whatever else, could never serve as receptacles or vessels containing God. Angels were astounded at the very thought, but with human beings it was a l iving reality\emdash though most willfully and stubbornly chose to live separated and as distantly from God as they could. \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par Volume IV \par Appendix \par The Two Branches of the Messianic River \par \par The Branch of the King: Rio Psalms, Rio Isaiah, Rio Jeremiah, Rio Daniel, Rio Micah, Rio Zechariah, Rio Malachi \par \par The Branch of the Suffering Servant: Rio Psalms, Rio Isaiah, Rio Daniel, Rio Zechariah \par \par _______________ \par The two branches are divided, near the falls where the river diverges into two branches, by the Isle of the Massacred Infants. \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par Volume IV \par Appendix \par \par Approximate Times of First Appearances, Withdrawals, and Re-Emergences \par \par Of Star-Stones on Earths I and II \par \par Ante Anno Stellae 4000 ?: \par The Untainted-Carbuncle, first to be re-created, is sent to Earth II, to aid the descendants of Noah. \par The Age of Faith in God begins on Earth II, but the age is not named so, since \'93anno stellae\'94 refers to the Star of Christ\rquote s Glory, which surpasses faith and its star. \par \par 1.

When the churches declined spiritually and even morally, the cities were laid open for attack and destruction\emdash which in time came. Further duties entailed protection of the island nation of England, which in turn protected the holy seed of Israel, the dispersed people who, due to their work for Britain\rquote s welfare, were finally awarded land in the Mandate of Palestine. When Britain withdrew its protection from Israel, the Seven Stars withdrew their protection of Britain and transferred their base to America, which became Israel\rquote s champion for a time. As America declined, there was little the Seven Stars could do for so corrupt a nation as it becam e, and the gates were left open for attackers. These Stars also played a part in the defense of the Blue Bridge during the various battles, guarding the bridge at both ends in Universes I and II. \par \par **The Seven Stars or Seven Angels have been taken by som e to mean seven pastors of the respective churches. It seems plausible on the surface, but there are some problems with this view. There were probably more than seven pastors to begin with, since in Paul\rquote s ministry any number of pastors and ministers f unctioned in any given church, no matter how small. Secondly, why should a man be described as a star, until he is lifted into the heavens as a shining saint? Scriptures describe no man or saint as a star while he is still on this mortal earth. \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par \par }{\b\fs52 \par \par \par \par \par }{ \par }{\b\fs52 \par \par \par \par \par \par }}
