Daniel 11 v36

The antichrist exalting himself .

"The king will do as he pleases. He will exalt and magnify himself above every god and will say unheard-of things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been determined must take place. 37He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all.

A major preoccupation of Islam is that Allah has no son – as is written around the inside of the Dome of the Rock on Temple Mount in Jerusalem.  

Muslims cry, “Allah wakhba”, meaning “Allah is greater” – not, “God is great” as commonly suggested.  

He changes the set times and laws

Rev 13

The beast and his wound that had healed.

The beast I saw……….. ³One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed.

Islam once controlled the ancient world, but lost its dominance.  With oil wealth it is re-establishing its hold

Rev 13 v16-18

The mark of the beast – the number of the beast or the number of his name

. ¹⁶He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, ¹⁷so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.

¹⁸This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666.

It is actually a mark - " a number" is possibly a assumption made in translation.  Translations vary on the number.   666,  616, 646 or 665.

What if John’s manuscript included  a representation of what John saw.  If he saw Arabic and copied it, and what he saw was the characters that read “Bism Allah”; “in the name of Allah”.  This is used extensively in Islam on documents and on headbands of Islamic terrorists and fanatics. (See below)

Rev 17

The identity of  the woman, Babylon

⁵This title was written on her forehead:

  MYSTERY  BABYLON THE GREAT - THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

 ⁶I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.

Fornication or prostitution, in God’s judgments,  refers to idolatry and going after false gods.

Which false god and his adherents are most obviously drunk with the blood of the saints?  

Ask the Barnabas Fund.

Rev 17 2

Rev 18 v3

Who has led on all the nations?

With whom have the nations of the world traded and grown rich from excessive luxuries?

. ²With her the kings of the earth committed adultery and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries."

³For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries.

The kings of the earth committed adultery with her,

and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries."

Islam is advancing on the nations aggressively and is funded by Saudi oil money.

Oil money is the centre of global economic power, and OPEC has a stranglehold on world economics.

The world’s merchant grow rich catering for the tastes of fabulously rich Arabian oil sheiks

Revelation 17 vs 7 & 9

The city on seven hills    (Rome?)

7 Then the angel said to me: "Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns.

⁹"This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits.

Mecca can more properly be said to sit on, or equally in the Greek, near seven hills, or mountains.

Rev 18 v7

Her love of luxury

⁷Give her as much torture and grief  as the glory and luxury she gave herself.

See the opulence of Gulf state palaces and cities.

Rev 18 v11-13

Merchant’s goods no longer bought by Babylon.

¹¹"The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes any more-- ¹²cargoes of gold, silver, precious stones and pearls; fine linen, purple, silk and scarlet cloth; every sort of citron wood, and articles of every kind made of ivory, costly wood, bronze, iron and marble; ¹³cargoes of cinnamon and spice, of incense, myrrh and frankincense, of wine and olive oil, of fine flour and wheat; cattle and sheep; horses and carriages; and bodies and souls of men.

Saudi imports vast amounts of gold, silver and precious stones for their displays of wealth.

Also pearls (millions of dollars worth per year)

Also fine cloth.

Ivory etc figure prominently in Islamic decoration.

Iron and marble in great quantities for prestige buildings.

Spices and fragrances.

Wine and alcohol, surprisingly, is imported in great quantities for consumption by somebody.

Chariots – motor vehicles to burn the oil.

Rev 18 v13 (end)

Cargoes of the bodies and souls of men

and bodies and souls of men.

Nearly all labour in Gulf states is imported; specialists from the west and manual workers from the third world.

Islam enslaves a billion souls.

  Rev 20 v4

Those beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and not taking the mark of the beast

  I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands.

  Where are they obsessed with swords?

Where do they execute those who accept Jesus ?

Where is beheading the method of execution?

Saudi Arabia and thereabouts
