Now some may wonder where I might get such a notion, but those who have followed my blog for any length of time know that I believe that America is the prophetic “eight that goeth into perdition.”
Revelations – 17:9 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.
It amazes me that I never hear anyone anywhere talking about the above passage in regards to the Beast of Revelations chapter 13, let alone connecting it to America. Yet when the angel says to John, “Here is the mind which hath wisdom…” you would think more people wanting wisdom and understanding of who the beast is would jump on this verse to find out what it all means. Yet the only people who seem to look at the verse and discuss it are people who think it all applies to the Catholic Church and that it deals with a succession of popes a long time ago.
While I don’t have time to get into The Eighth Beast and America again now, I do want touch on Washington D.C. and New York City real quick here in this post after hearing the alert. But first let me present a quick outline for those who want to look into this further on their own before we get into the heart of the matter.
Revelation chapters 13-18 are about the rise and fall of this eighth empire which can also be identified by its direct correlation with the nation of Israel. In chapter 13 the seven-headed beast rises up out of the sea which represents multitudes, nation and languages and tongues, meaning it is a nation of multiple ethnic backgrounds and cultures, a land of immigrants.
The eighth beast rises to its height of power the same time the preceding global superpower, England, is waning and declining from its zenith prior to the rebirth of Israel. All this happens because there was a war where one of the heads of the beast received a deadly blow but was able to recover and the second beast of Revelation 13 called down fire from heaven in the sight of the men and the consensus of the whole world was “Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?”
For the sake of brevity I am simply going to state for now that I believe there is strong scriptural and historical evidence the event of “fire from heaven in the sight of the men” was the world’s introduction to nuclear warfare as President Truman ordered the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki which brought an end to the WW2, at which time the British Empire was fading and Israel was about to be born again as a nation. For more information please review The Eighth Beast or America.
Let me be forthcoming in stating that I believe the position of the President Of The United States is that second beast which scripture states had “two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon” and “exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.” For while the succession of POTUS’s have tried to maintain the image of (a lamb) being for peace, history reveals they have actually been promoting the agenda of the dragon and constantly given to meddling in other sovereign nations and promoting self-serving wars.
As Revelation chapter 14-16 continues they speak about the judgment of the beast and John having witnessed everything in a vision becomes so overwhelm that in chapter 17 an angel begins to explain to him “the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.” The angel then continues in chapter 18 expounding on the utter destruction coming to the beast and the apostate religious system riding it.
But back in chapter 16 we see that “the seat,” or capital “of the beast” is going to be destroyed with the outpouring of the 5th seal-
Revelation 16:10 – And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain.
It is worth recalling here how when President George W. Bush was promoting his father’s “land for peace” agenda on Israel that the Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated on its re-entry directly above Palestine Texas and had a very similar appearance to that of a shooting star or meteorite as it was disintegrating upon its re-entry. This tragic event was telecast live and witness worldwide. However, as many already know, shooting stars and comets are often considered bad omens. Therefore I have always considered this event to have been a harbinger and reliable witness to the prophetic verse above that eventually those in “the seat of the beast” would “gnawed their tongues for pain” then the “kingdom was full of darkness.” Such terminology could be an accurate description of the results of a nuclear detonation over a city. But we are talking about the seat of spiritual Babylon, which was actually the seat and capital of the Chaldeans. This makes the Space Shuttle Columbia tragedy all the more noteworthy here when we consider that the seat and capital of America is the District of Columbia.
But regarding New York City being nuked this weekend, I don’t think that destruction comes until the seventh vial is poured out.
Revelation 16:17 – And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. 18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. 19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.
These verse foretell the beginning of the torrent of devastation that befalls America as God unleashes His anger against America and destroys once again man’s vain attempt to rebuild Babel. But before God’s wrath is fully released I have come to lean toward the persuasion that it must be preceded by the destruction of Washington D.C., an event that will probably be a false flag event by the ruling elite as an attempt to utterly obliterate any trace American heritage and extinguish the legislative structure of America as some of us remember how it used to be.
Yet God is going to let these heathen rage and them imagine a vain thing as they continue to set themselves against the LORD and against His anointed. For “He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh, and the Lord shall have them in derision. For then shall He speak unto them in His wrath, and vex them in His sore displeasure.”
For I sense that the emptying of the fifth, sixth and seventh vails are not spaced far apart. For in order for the kings of the east to come against Israel, the way must be prepared and the great River Euphrates dried up. Yet as the things move at a steadily accelerating pace, God has already been preparing His armaments against the whore and the beast upon which she rides.
For when these wicked rulers rise up to fulfill their devilishly calculated scheme, they will find that God will simply allow them to fall into the ditch of destruction they have dug for others. For with “a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great,” God will shake the very refuged they have dug for their own safety and preservation, turning their DUMBs (deep underground military bases” into tombs and death traps as the great city will be divided into three parts.
The “great city” speaking of spiritual Babylon which represents the whole nation. For as surely as Babylon was synonymous with the Chaldean Empire so will Washington D.C. be with America, as the very geography of the nation will be ripped into three parts. It will most likely be during this weakened state that the ten kings will strike with nuclear weapons to absolutely destroy America so as to never arise again. And while some might protest that they would not do that because they would want to savage the spoils and great resources of America, I must remind you that they will be mad and drunkened from partaking of America’s cup of iniquity and that God Himself puts this in their heart in order to fulfill His will upon the great whore.
Revelation 17:16 – And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. 17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil His will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. 18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
It is then that God will announce His war upon all the nations of the earth as City of Nations falls into utter ruin by the wrath of God. Now some of you might notice that I said “city” and not “cities” as did the translators. That is because they did not understand how there could be a City of Nations back then. But for years God has persuaded me that it was not the cities of the nations, but one city in particular that was going to be focal point of His anger as He began His judgment upon the nations.
That is why God led me years ago to search this out lest I teach an untruth and led me to the Codex Sinaiticus which dates to the middle of the fourth century. According a web site hosting the Codex, “only one other nearly complete manuscript of the Christian Bible – Codex Vaticanus (kept in the Vatican Library in Rome) – is of a similarly early date.” According to the web site “The only manuscripts of Christian scripture that are definitely of an earlier date than Codex Sinaiticus contain small portions of the text of the Bible.”
“’Codex’ means ‘book’. By the time Codex Sinaiticus was written, works of literature were increasingly written on sheets that were folded and bound together in a format that we still use to this day. This book format was steadily replacing the roll format which was more widespread just a century before when texts were written on one side of a series of sheets glued together to make a roll. These rolls were made of animal skin (like most of the Dead Sea Scrolls) or the papyrus plant (commonly used for Greek and Latin literature).”
It was there that I was able to examine the text in the closest thing to the original and verify that what I had been persuaded of already was in fact true, that there was a prophetic City of Nations that would be destroyed and her location would be within the boundaries of The Eighth Beast that goeth into perdition. Not being a Greek scholar, I first had to verify that there was a visible distinction between the plural and the singular for city/cities and to start I looked up Jude 1:7.
Though in this interlinear they have the word “towns” instead of “cities,” you can still see the Greek word above it having six letters. Here it is in the actual handwritten Codex Sinaiticus-
Then I looked up Revelation 16: 19-
As you notice, even those who compiled the interlinear were compelled to correct what was written originally as they inserted the plural Greek word for “cities” which has an extra letter compare to the first Greek word for the singular “city.” But look at it handwritten in the Codex Sinaiticus-
The great city and the city of nations are the same singular Greek word even though both the translators and the interlinears felt it had to be plural, for how could there be a “city of nations?” Even those working with the Codex Sinaiticus highlighted it noting what seemed to be a error but to their credit left it nonetheless unchanged. Yet the word of God is true and there is only one city that can be this City of Nations, New York City. For it is there that the United Nation houses 193 nations, and each having sovereign soil therein. It is here in God’s word that He has spoken that He will be the one that initiates the wrath upon all these nations by destroying the very City of Nations and cause that blasphemous Luciferian United Nations tower of Babel to fall one again never to rise. Regardless how clever the wicked elite think they have been in their scheming against God and His anointed, we must not forget that they have been completely deceived and blinded because they love not the truth and their father Lucifer has lied to them from the beginning and the truth is not in him.
John 8:44 – …He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
However, Christians today are guilty of lending the power of their faith to the powers of darkness by believing their lies and that they will accomplish what God has historically destroyed over and over again as clearly written in His word for our encouragement. Yes we will have tribulation, yes we’ll be persecuted and yes, some of us will be martyrs, but the wise will not accept deliverance that they might obtain a better resurrection. But regardless of what victory they might think they have gained over us, our God but laughs for He sees their day coming.
Yes, New York City will one day fall, but be assured the seat of the beast, Washington D.C. must fall first. If that is today, then blessed be the name of the Lord. If not, then let us redeem the time and quit believing these devilish lies ourselves and put our faith where it belongs, in the Author of what was written for our comfort, exhortation and admonition. Never forget, our God is mighty in battle and that the Captain of our Salvation Jesus Christ has already defeat the adversary and put him to open same at the cross. The devil and his minions know their time is short and are terrified of the judgment that awaits them. Be bold saints, put on your armor, stand fast, and weld you sword confidently for the battle is the Lords.
Live for the King!! It’ll make it easier to die for Him...

“And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. 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. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.”
Brother Arthur, I appreciate your input, but the entirety of Earl Borders explanation to Revelations 17:9-11 is severely inadequate, “When John received the Revelation on the Isle of Patmos, it was A.D. 96. Revelation 17:10 tells us, “And there are seven kings, five are fallen, [in other words, five of these heads of government – the regal, the consular, the decemvirate, the military tribunes, and the triumvirate- had already fallen. Historically they hey had already come and gone.] and one is[the ‘one’ that was in power in A.D. 96 was the imperial, or the imperial Caesars], and the other is not yet come [that was the patrician, the seventh-and-final form of government that Rome had in its pagan form] . . . .”
Earl then simply states that the eighth beast is Roman Catholicism, neglecting that there is both The Beast and the mother of harlots that rides her. His take is the same as almost everyone else who simply wants the look to Rome and neglect the fact that the seven mountains are seven empires and not seven forms of governments or those little seven hills of Rome.
Tell me Brother Arthur, just when, where, and how has Roman Catholicism who has historically been a hoarder of wealth ever made “the merchants of the earth… and every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea… made rich… by reason of her costliness?
Sorry brother, I have examine this line of reasoning and it falls short of being credible in light of the whole of scripture and history.

Brother Arthur,
I don’t mean to be difficult, but I really do not understand your answer to my question about how Catholicism has made the merchants of the earth rich. I do not see such a pattern “during the early church period” nor one “repeating according to that pattern again during these end times.”
I do see the however with absolute historical and scriptural clarity the succession of empires that have had a direct correlation with Israel, the five that had fallen at the time of John’s revelation-
1 – Egypt
2 – Assyria
3 – Babylon
4 – Mede/Persia
5 – Greece
Then we see the one that was at the time of his vision –
6 – Rome, which destroyed Israel making it an “is not” and then..
7 – England, which had possession of the land at the time of Israel being born again as a nation… and only continued a short space before King George died 4 years latter.
And then comes America, “the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven (of England, or a mixture of all, a land of immigrants), and goeth into perdition.”
Stay blessable
WM
