Study on Daniel 9:27 "... and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." (Part 10)

This article continues from where I have left off in Study on Daniel 9:27 “… and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate” (Part 9), where I have interpreted John’s prophecy in Revelation 17:10 with reference to Daniel’s vision in Daniel 2:31-33 about the “great image” showing the timeline of the world empires. I’ve postulated that the five kingdoms that are fallen are:[1] the Babylonian Empire as the head of gold; [2] the Medo-Persian Empire as the breast and arms of silver; [3] the Grecian Empire as the belly and thighs of brass; and the Roman Empire as the legs of iron. Just like how the legs of iron of the great image consist of both left and right legs, the Roman Empire was later split into [4] the Western Empire (395 to 476 AD) and [5] the Eastern “Byzantine” Empire (395 to 1453 AD), all of which are fallen. However, the legs of iron later became the feet of part iron and part clay. How did the feet of part iron and part clay evolve from the legs of iron? Daniel continues in:

Daniel 2:34-35 “Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. 35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.”

It is true that both the Western Roman Empire and the Eastern “Byzantine” Empire are fallen, yet, John tells us in Revelation 17:10 that there are seven kings: “five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come.” The next verse tells us that the beast is the eighth king. The timeline of world empires must continue until the stone that was cut without hands smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them into pieces. Moreover, if we look at Daniel 2:35 how the great image rest entirely upon the feet of part iron and part clay, the previous empires that were fallen would eventually culminate in the last kingdom in the history of mankind. That is why when the stone that was cut without hands smote the feet of the great image, then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver and the gold broken into pieces together: destroying the great image altogether, bringing to an end the rule of man. It would be then, that the kingdom of God shall replace the last kingdom in the timeline of human history to become a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. But until then, the whole earth is still under the rule of man’s kingdoms. In the previous article, I have shown from scripture the timeline of man’s kingdoms ending at the Roman Empire, which took over from the Grecian Empire. The Roman Empire later split into the Western Empire and the Eastern “Byzantine” empire as signified by the legs of iron of the great image. However, the rule of Rome did not cease after the fall of the Western Empire and the Eastern “Byzantine” Empire. Instead, it continued to survive in the form of the Holy Roman Empire (800 to 1806 AD), which evolved from a centralized nation-state to a decentralized multi-ethnic political struture comprising of a confederation of territories, principalities, duchies, bishoprics, free cities and other semi-autonomous entities loosely held together under the overlordship of an elected Roman Emperor.

On 25-December-800, Christmas Day in Rome, Pope Leo III crowned the Frankish king Charlemagne as the Roman Emperor, reviving the title after more than three centuries since the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. It symbolized a fusion of Frankish Germanic power, Papal authority, and Roman legacy, while also challenging the Eastern “Byzantine” Empire’s claim to Roman continuity. When the Byzantine Empire fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453 AD, the Holy Roman Empire became successor of the original Roman Empire together with Papacy which was not under control of the Roman Emperor. The Papal states in central Italy which existed from around 756 until 1870 AD were ruled by the Pope who claimed his own sovereignty. Yet, the Holy Roman Empire’s legitimacy was tied to Papal involvement from its very origin: the Roman Emperor as the secular protector of papacy, while the Pope in turn legitimized imperial rule and held spiritual authority. That is the reason why the Holy Roman Empire was symbolized by the double-headed eagle: one head representing the Roman Emperor, and the other head representing the Pope, yet, they belong to the same bird. It also goes to show the duality nature of the Roman Empire as represented by the two legs of the great image in Daniel 2. In theory, the Pope and the Roman Emperor formed a harmonious duo, but in practice, they often clashed over authority, with the Pope claiming spiritual supremacy, and the Roman Emperor asserting secular power. Following the coronation of Charlemagne in 800 AD, the kingdom was simply referred to as the “Roman Empire.” But later, the term sacrum (“holy”) in connection with the medieval Roman Empire was added beginning in 1157 AD under Frederick I Barbarossa to reflect his ambition to dominate Italy and the Papacy. Hence, the Roman Empire became referred to as the “Holy Roman Empire” from 1254 AD onward. The empire reaches significant territorial extent in the High Middle Ages (1000 to 1300 AD), stretching from the North Sea to northern Italy and from France to eastern Europe as it became more and more firmly associated with a German identity, so much so that by 1512 AD, the Holy Roman Empire became known as the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation to reflect its Germanic core.

However, following the religious war with the Protestants (1618 to 1648 AD) which escalated into a Europe-wide war, killing millions, the Holy Roman Empire started to fragment and lose authority over much of its territories. Historical text tells us that the Holy Roman Empire ceased to exist after Emperor Francis II abdicated his throne and dissolved the empire in 1806 AD to prevent Napoleon from claiming the imperial title for himself. So, the empire ended not with a bang but a whimper, a stroke of the pen rather than battlefield defeat in its final days. Did the Roman Empire come to an end with the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire? One thing for sure, Papacy still exist unto this very day with the Pope remaining the head of Vatican, even though Italian unification forces have siezed the Papal states, and stripped the Pope of his secular territorial rule over central Italy since 1870 AD. What about the Holy Roman Empire, the other leg in the great image of Daniel 2? Another thing for sure, the bible tells us in these verses:

Daniel 2:32-34 “This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. 34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.”

It is only until the stone that was cut without hands would smote the great image upon his feet that were of iron and clay and brake them into pieces, that the Roman Empire, culminating in the beast kingdom, would be completely obliterated. That means that in the meantime, the Holy Roman Empire must have evolved to exist in another form. Since its dissolution in 1806 AD, the Holy Roman Empire was reorganized, and the German states became part of the short-lived Confederation of the Rhine (1806 to 1813 AD) under French influence, while Francis retained the title as Emperor of Austria. The Holy Roman Empire’s decentralized, multi-ethnic character gave way to modern nation-state building, and while the empire itself was never restored, its end marked the transition from a medieval fuedal fragmentation to the modern 19th-century nationalism and centralized states. This process laid the foundations for the German Empire that emerged in 1871 and shaped European history into the 20th century.

The Holy Roman Empire (800 to 1806 AD) was often retroactively referred to as the First Reich, and the German Empire (1871 to 1918 AD) as the Second Reich. Nazi leaders, especially Adolf Hitler, have invoked the legacy of the Holy Roman Empire and the German Empire to lend an aura of ancient grandeur, legitimacy, and destiny to their regime, which portrayed Nazi rule as the culmination of a thousand-year Germanic imperial tradition. Nazi Germany (1933 to 1945 AD) as the Third Reich was presented as the final and eternal “Thousand-Year Reich” that would restore and surpass the former glory of the previous reichs. Since 1933, the Nazis had enthusiastically adopted this narrative which helped to position the regime as the rightful heir to German imperial greatness. Even the Reichsadler, the single-headed eagle clutching a swastika symbol as the official emblem of Nazi Germany, was evolved from the double-headed eagle symbol of the Holy Roman Empire. The Nazi era ended in 1945 AD, following the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War 2. Many of the Nazi leaders may have faced justice. However, that was not the end of the Holy Roman Empire, because the bible tells us in Revelation 17:10 that “… five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.” If we compare these two passages of scripture:

Daniel 11:19-21 “Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found. 20 Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle. 21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

Revelation 17:9-11 “And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. 10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. 11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.”

After the former “king of the north” shall stumble and fall, and not be found, there is one who shall stand up in his place, a new king which Daniel 11:20 calls “a raiser of taxes” in the glory of the kingdom. But this new king shall only rule for a short period of time (“within a few days he shall be destroyed.”) Compare this with what we read in Revelation 17:10 about the seventh king that “when be cometh, he must continue a short space.” The next verse tells us that the beast is the eighth king. This compares with Daniel 11:21 “in his estate shall stand up a vile person.” The vile person would be a reference of the beast of Revelation 17:11, the eighth king, who is of the lineage of the seven kings before him, and goeth into perdition.

The “king of the north” figure in Daniel 11:15-19 is widely understood by biblical scholars as Antichus III the Great, arguably the most ambitious and initially successful of the Hellenistic kings, who happened to be the sixth king of the Seleucid Empire. Earlier, we have discussed the Holy Roman Empire (800 to 1806 AD) which continued from the fallen Roman Western Empire and Eastern “Byzantine” Empire. Revelation 17:9 tells us “five are fallen, and one is.” The five empires that are fallen are: [1] the Babylonian Empire; [2] the Medo-Persian Empire; [3] the Grecian Empire; and this was followed by the Roman Empire which was later split into the [4] Western Empire and [5] the Eastern “Byzantine” Empire. The Holy Roman Empire continued from the fallen Western Empire and Eastern “Byzantine” Empire, making it the sixth king of Revelation 17:9. But just like what happened with Antichus III the Great who eventually ended up in shameful defeat, the Holy Roman Empire too, shall eventually stumble and fall, and not be found based on what we read in Daniel 11:19. But it shall be replaced by a new king, the seventh king who shall rule for a short space. Daniel 11:20 identified him as “a raiser of taxes” in the glory of the kingdom. That would be the last world order before the beast shall rule the world as the eighth king. However, before the “raiser of taxes” shall come on the scene, the current world order is still being dictated by the Holy Roman Empire. It is true that the Holy Roman Empire which lasted for 1,006 years on paper was never restored. Yet, the bible shows us in Daniel 2:31-35 about the great image, which legs are of iron, and feet of part iron and part clay, which goes to show that the Roman Empire must have evolved to survive in another form. The physical empire may be gone, but the brotherhood between member states and the common ideology they shared don’t cease just because the physical empire was dissolved. Rather, they continue to exist in another form. German nationalists referred to the Holy Roman Empire as the First Reich. In 1806 AD, after the long-lasting empire was dissolved, it continued to survive in the form of the short-lived German Empire (1871 to 1918 AD), called the Second Reich, which only lasted for 47 years. However, it was during this short period of time that nearly all states in the Empire began to adopt some form of modern income taxation, though the rates varied. To be noted here was that during the Holy Roman Empire, there was never a centralized modern taxation system like those implemented during the German Empire, where direct progressive income taxes emerged at the state level.

The German Empire ended in 1918 AD through a combination of military defeat in World War 1, the German Revolution, and the collapse of the monarchical system, which led to the proclamation of the Weimar Republic (1919 to 1933 AD). The transition was, however, swift and largely bloodless. The early Weimar years were marked by political violence and economic chaos. Then, in 1929 AD, the Wall Street Crash triggered the Great Depression, which hit Germany hard due to their reliance on U.S. loans. It was around this period that the Nazi Party led by Adolf Hitler exploited on public sentiments, resulting in a surge in favour of the Nazis during the elections. Hitler was then appointed as Germany’s Chancellor on 30-January-1933. Within months, he dismantled democracy, and the Nazi regime began to pursue aggressive policies against other European countries, triggering World War 2 in 1939 AD. Hence, the Holy Roman Empire continued its rule as the Third Reich in the form of Nazi Germany, a totalitarian dictatorship which ruled over much of Europe from 1933 to 1945 AD. The Third Reich was also known as the “Thousand Year Reich” because originally, the Nazis wanted this reich to be as great as the earlier Holy Roman Empire which they called the First Reich. They wanted to dominate Europe and the rest of the world for a thousand years. At least that was what they claimed. Most people may have heard about the Holocaust. Yet, few are aware that Nazi Germany also implemented a form of “health passport” in support of its extermination program:

It should be clear by now that their “health passports” were a type of the mark of the beast, just like what we have seen with the more recent COVID vaccine passports. This also goes to show that the vaccine passport is not a new idea that came out recently, but it has a predecessor from Nazi Germany. During Hitler's horrific 12 year rule, the Nazis were responsible for unleashing one of the bloodiest war to ever scourge mankind. Like all good socialists, Hitler consolidated and sustained his power by killing anyone who opposed him with help from the “laws” he passed to make it technically legal to carry out his crimes under the shield of the German law. No doubt the Nazi extermination program was carried out under disguise of “health passports,” just like how in the last few years, they implemented COVID passports to force poisonous COVID shots on the world population, pushed under the name of “it’s for your safety and the safety of others,” in an apparent attempt to depopulate the earth. Now, at hindsight, we all know how unlawful those things were that Hitler did during his 12 years of terror reign, despite his attempt at legislative cover. This goes to show that not everything “legal” is lawful. More than likely, the dictator needed to pass those laws to give themselves legal immunity, the same reason why vaccine manufacturers were granted legal immunity from the public since 1986. I have come across a number of articles comparing Adolf Hitler to that man of sin, the son of perdition of 1 Thessalonians 2:3-4, which Daniel 11: 21 calls the “vile person.” That may be true to some extent, however, Adolf Hitler was only a figure, just like how COVID19 vaccine was only a figure, not the actual mark of the beast.

Ecclesiastes 1:9-10 “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.”

There is “no new thing under the sun.” That also includes the Antichrist. John tells us in 1 John 2:18 “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.” The things previously will be repeated again and again in types and shadows, until the time of their final fulfillment towards the end of the world. Of course, we know that the thousand year reign by the Nazis did not become a reality for them. In fact, the Third Reich only lasted for 12 years and 4 months, after Nazi Germany were defeated, ending World War 2. However, that was not the end of the Holy Roman Empire. Just like how it happened with the earlier Holy Roman Empire and the German Empire, Nazi Germany simply evolved to survive in another form. The Nazi regime may have collapsed in May-1945 with Germany’s unconditional surrender, but shortly after that, the Allies implemented denazification programs to remove Nazi influence from the government, education, judiciary and society in the now occupied Germany. Some high-ranking Nazis faced justice at the Nuremberg Trials (1945 to 1946) and subsequent proceedings. Others committed suicide, died in combat or in captivity, or were executed. However, practical needs eventually resulted in thousands of lower-level Nazis and collaborators reintegrated back into the society, sometimes in professional roles. It was also said that a number of high-profile Nazis fled to South America, the Middle East, and elsewhere, using false identities as coverup. Operation Paperclip (originally called Operation Overcast) was a secret U.S. intelligence program that brought more than 1,600 German scientists, engineers, and technicians along with their families from the defeated Nazi Germany to the United States after World War 2, primarily between 1945 and the early 1960s. Their war crimes records were “sanitized” to bypass President Truman’s initial orders against importing ardent Nazis.

The Jesuits, working through the Vatican ratlines, allegedly helped top Nazis escape to South America (especially Argentina) via the OSS networks, to the U.S. via Operation Paperclip, and to other safe havens. These ratlines were tied to the same networks involving the Knights of Malta, Allen Dulles, and Reinhard Gehlen’s organization. Their goal was to preserve Nazi expertise and ideology for continuation into a “Fourth Reich” or global control structure, with the Jesuits maintaining influence. Therefore, the Nazis were not defeated but relocated and empowered, and they also brought along with them their ideology, occult interests, and unethical science into the heart of the American Deep State. Their involvement has enabled a number of black projects under the CIA such as Project BLUEBIRD (1950), ARTICHOKE (1951), and MK-ULTRA (1953) focused on mind-control as well as other related projects such as KDELTA, MKNAOMI, MKSEARCH, MKOFTEN, and MKCHICKWIT between the 1950s and 1970s which focused on drugs, biological/chemical agents, and behavioral research. Wernher von Braun was a prominent Nazi who benefitted from Operation Paperclip. In Nazi Germany, he was the lead architect of the V-2 rocket, the world’s first long-range guided ballistic missile. After he moved to the U.S., he eventually became the director of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center, and is widely considered the “Father of Space Flight” responsible for the Saturn V rocket that took the Apollo 11 mission to the moon. Besides Wernher von Braun, several other Paperclip recruits held high-level positions within NASA:

• ​Kurt Debus: A former V-2 flight test director who became the first director of NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.

• ​Arthur Rudolph: The project manager for the Saturn V rocket. He later left the U.S. and renounced his citizenship in the 1980s following investigations into his involvement with slave labor at the Mittelwerk factory.

• ​Hubertus Strughold: Known as the “Father of Space Medicine,” he played a vital role in studying the effects of space on the human body, though his legacy is overshadowed by his alleged knowledge of human experimentation at Dachau.

Furthermore, it was also said that after the fall of the Third Reich, a part of Nazis who escaped were funded by Bolivian cocaine through the enterprise founded by Klaus Barbie and Pablo Escobar. In fact, there was a well-documented episode in the late 1970s and early 1980s featuring Nazi war criminal Klaus Barbie (the “Butcher of Lyon”) and Bolivian drug lord Roberto Suárez Gómez who controlled a huge share of the global cocaine trade at the time, involved in a violent military coup in Bolivia. Drug and human trafficking have been the lifeblood of the Deep State for centuries using the same model that the British East India Company had used for heroin trafficking. For the Nazis who remained in Europe, it was said that during World War 2, Nazi Germany had already developed concepts for a ”New Order” in Europe under its control after the presumed victory. These concepts included economic ideas such as a large trading bloc with European preference, customs union, and a coordinated industry. Many of their ideas became the blueprint for today’s European Union.

Therefore, the evolved Holy Roman Empire did not end with Nazi’s defeat in 1945 AD. Instead, Nazi ideology was integrated into the global power structures of today. From the former territories of Nazi Germany, the whole world is now their oyster, and I believe that is where we are today, with the evolved Holy Roman Empire still reigning over us as the current world order, post Nazi Germany, as the sixth king of Revelation 17:10. Of course, it is not just the Nazis but there is a whole network of very powerful forces behind them, pulling the strings from behind the scenes since ancient times, orchestrating every event from the Devil’s script. The bible calls them the “kings of the earth” in Psalms 2:2. In fact, the Vatican ratlines by which the Nazis escaped to other countries is a dead giveaway of the fact that these very powerful people do exist, and they live among us, and above us, asserting control over every aspect of our lives. Under their orchestration, the current world order will eventually make way for a New World Order, a short-lived regime characterized by the “raiser of taxes” according to Daniel 11:20. Perhaps, we are already seeing that happening with the United Nations Agenda 2030 for a New World Order unfolding before our very eyes:
