Islam and other hidden religions Jeremiah 49:38 - And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there the king and the princes, saith the LORD. Elam in the Hebrew text is translated as eternity but the word is originally an Assyrian word which means hidden. It was a territory to the east of Babylon and northeast of the Tigris River. In todays map it would means southern part of Iraq and large part of Iran. In todays message the Lord talks of a religion that is hidden. Many people compare Islam to Christianity because they think the word Allah refers to God and Islam is a monolithic religion. The word is an Arabic word which means The god the word for God in Arabic is illah / illa and not Allah. Like in Christianity one is considered Christian by ones baptism, in Islam a person is considered Muslim after he or she declares the Shahada which is the first verses of the Quran. The verse goes as follow La ilaha illa Allah wa-Muhammad rasul Allah. There is no god but Allah / the god and Muhammad is the prophet of the god. It is these words that are printed in white on the black banner used by ISIS. If one studies Islam one would know which god they are referring to as the god. The Arabs were pagan worshipers and the Kaaba was a temple for 360 gods. The chief amongst them was a god named Hubal who was a moon deity and had 3 daughters named el-Lat, el-Uzza, and Manat. Each of the daughters had a shrine in Mecca near the main shrine. That is also the reason why moon is an integral part of Islamic worship or rituals. When a Christian monk told Mohammad when he was 25 years old that there is only one God, Mohammad being illiterate selected Hubal the chief of the gods of the Kaaba as the only god and destroyed all other gods. In the Quran the verse in which Mohammad declares the 3 daughters of Allah are considered as satanic verses and are edited in the newer Qurans. When Salam Rushdie wrote a book referring to this verse it opened a pandoras box and that is why religious Muslims want to kill him. If we check the Arabic script of the word Allah the same in Hebrew means cursed and in Greek is the number 666. Most Christians think Allah is the Beast mentioned in Revelation. That is true to some extend but not fully right. In Ezekiel 28 we read it is not the King of Tyre (a term given for Lucifer) but the Prince of Tyre (the Beast) who wants to be god. Like Lucifer this Prince of Tyre also being a Cherub had wisdom (which is thousand times that of normal man) not to challenge God his creator in Heaven but instead tries to be god over the people (only an ignorant being like man can think he can take the place of God). The prince of Tyre knew he could deceive man and put himself as god over mankind. In Quran we read Mohammad declares Allah as being the greatest deceiver pointing Allah to be the Beast / Prince of Tyre. The Beast is not only the one who controls people who follow Islam but also all other religions including a large sect of Christians who worship a woman thinking she is a character from the Bible. Bible says in fact the throne of the Beast is the Church of this sect of Christians and in history we see Islam is an indirect outcome of this Church (Pope Gregory in 500AD). I got this message yesterday but could not send it until I was sure what the message was. Todays scripture is a prophecy which in one way did come true during the rule of the Babylonian empire but the Lord is telling us today through this same scripture that He is going to set Himself above these hidden religions and going to bring down the rulers, big and small and the captives of these religions are going to come to know Him. If one studies the stages of the Church as defined in the seven letters we see we are entering an era where the Church glorifies the Lord and people come to know Him. People think all these calamities that are happening point to the end but are mistaken; they are setting the loose foundation strong and building the hearts and minds of the people. So let us not be disheartened but be more energised and be bold to witness Christ to the world. [Prayer Starter] Lord, people think things are getting back and loosing hope, but we see Lord in scriptures it is at this very time You have shown up and glorified Yourself among your people. Lord, we pray they do not lose hope but instead know now is the time and work with extra vigour and determination... This prayer we make in Jesus Name, Amen. [Reference Scriptures] Jeremiah 49:35-39 35 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might. 36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation where the outcasts of Elam shall not come. 37 For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, even my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them: 38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there the king and the princes, saith the LORD. 39 But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captives of Elam, saith the LORD. Revelation 3:7-12 7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; 8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. 9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out no more: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Ezekiel 28 Revelation 2:13 - I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satans seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth. Revelation 17:8 - The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
