Part VI

"Dragon, Beast and False Prophet"
Revelation 16

    The "four winds of earth," as best as we can perceive them, are: Western Christian World (Roman Catholic and main line Protestant churches), the Far Eastern World (Hindu, Shinto, New Age, Wicca, etc.), the Muslim World (Islam religion) and the Pagan Humanists (Communists, Socialists, Atheists, etc.).
    Who of these four contenders will gain geopolitical predominance? Revelation 16:13 makes it clear that at the time of the Armageddon crash or whirlwind, it is the "Dragon" (Roman civil power), the "Beast" (Roman religious power) and its closely allied daughter, the "False Prophet" (Protestants under the direction of the Church of England working with the mother church). These are also described as Herod, Herodias and Salome.

    Here will be unleashed the cataclysmic forces of Armageddon. When the other contenders for power finally realize they have lost out, then they will vent their fury in creating the whirlwind. 
    It is important to realize that these "four winds" are fluid and are not bottled up exclusively in any region. We see even now how the Muslim religion has attacked the Western Christian World and also Far Eastern Hindu India. It has systematically slaughtered two million Christians in Africa. The Muslims have succeeded in securing great numbers of followers, but the Muslim nations are a dismal economic failure. Their economic failure is an "Albatross" about their neck.

Last Plague Poured Out on the "Air"

"The seventh angel poured out his vial [bowl] into the air,
and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven,
from the throne, saying It is done."

Revelation 16:17

    This last plague will be an expose' concerning the powers of darkness that have controlled the religious of the world, especially "the Prince of the power of the air" (Ephesians 2:2). When the people realize how greatly deceived and misled they were in believing that the kingdoms of the world were a part of the Kingdom of God, they shall arise in universal anarchy.
    When this plague is released, "the great city" Babylon will be divided into
"three parts""the dragon," "the beast" and the "false prophet"each for itself. Then will follow the "great earthquake, … so mighty an earthquake and so great" as never was before. This will also be the time of the "great whirlwind" of anarchy.

"Thus saith the Lord God: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. 
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army." Ezekiel 37:9, 10

    "Breath" and "life" will not come into Israel until the "four winds" blow the dust of the four universal empires away.

    Daniel 2:35, speaking of Nebuchadnezzar’s image, says,

"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 threshing floors;

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."

That is when the "stone" can grow and fill the whole earth.
