FINAL WARNING: Setting the Stage for Destruction
There does not appear to be any other figure on the world scene that
could be considered as a candidate for the False Prophet other than
the Pope, with the Roman Catholic Church being the World Church.
However, do not misconstrue this as anti-Catholic rhetoric. The real
history of the Catholic Church is not known to a large majority of its
membership, and therefore, even though they have been deceived, it is
wrong to indict those who have sincerely tried to live their lives
according to the basic Christian tenets as they know them. It is
probable that the Catholic Church, as well as the Protestant churches
which make up the World Council of Churches, in the coming years,
will be radically different, as liberalism and New Age become more
pervasive in Religion– transforming these churches into shadows of
their former selves.
