Islam and Catholics
DR. ALBERTO RIVERA

The Bible and the history books do tell us that the early Christians went everywhere preaching the gospel and at the same time, setting up small churches but they were strongly opposed. The Jews along with the Roman government persecuted the true Christians to stop the spreading of the gospel.

During this time, the Jews did rebell against Rome. We see that in 70 A.D. the Roman armies under General Titus crushed the city Jerusalem and destroyed the Jewish temple. This fulfilled our Lord’s prophecy in Matthew 24:2. Where the temple once stood, is the second most holy place to the Islamic faith. It is the “ Dome of the Rock Mosque.”

The unchristlike character waxed even colder during these times as the corruption, apathy, greed, cruelty, perversion, and rebellion were eating at the Roman Empire. It was collapsing. The ongoing onslaught of persecution against the true Christian was useless for Rome because the Christians continued to lay down their lives for the gospel.

The only hope for Satan to try and stop God’s people from spreading the truth and the gospel from going any further was to create a counterfeit “Christian” religion to try and destroy God’s work. The efforts were being constructed in Rome. This plan was to form a new religion and was to come from the ancient Babylon. It just needed careful planning in creating this false religion. This of course did not happen in a day or a couple of months. This took some time.

In their efforts they were constructing a new religion and things would begin take shape. The statue of Jupiter in Rome was eventually called St. Peter and the statue of Venus was changed to the Virgin Mary. Paganism and Christianity were being mixed. On one of the seven hills called “Vaticanus”—the place of diving serpent where the satanic Temple of Janus stood, is where the site was choose for the headquarters. Revelation 2:13 “I know thy works and where thou dwellest, [even] where Satan's seat [is]…”

This carefully and creatively designed plan for a counterfeit religion is known today as the Roman Catholicism, called “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” (Revelation 17:5). She was raised up to become the stumbling block for the world and to try and stop the gospel, kill off the true followers of Christ, establish religions, carefully plan wars and prepare to make the world or nations drunk with the wine (false doctrine) of her fornication(mixing church and state) as we will prove.

There are most defiantly three major religions today that have the same thing in common. They each have a holy place where they look for spiritual guidance instead of the Creator Himself. They seek wisdom from pagan made origins. The Roman Catholicism looked to the Vatican as the holy city. The Jews look to the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem and finally of course the Muslims look to Mecca as their holy place.

Each religion believes they will receive blessings for the rest of their lives just for visiting their holy place.

At the start, Arab visitors would bring gifts of offerings to the house of god and to the keepers of the Kaaba were blessed to all who visited. Many brought their idols and of course not wanting to offend these pilgrims, their idols were placed directly inside the sanctuary. “It is said that the Jews looked upon the Kaaba as an outlying tabernacle of the Lord, with veneration until it became polluted with idols.”

 

The Kaaba, Mecca

“In a tribal contention over a well (Zamzam) the treasure of the Kaaba and the offerings that pilgrims had given were dumped down the well and it was filled with sand; it disappeared. Many years later Adb al-Muttalib was given visions telling him where to find the well and its treasure. He became the hero of Mecca, and he was destined to become the grandfather of Muhammad.”

Just before that time, Augustine had become the bishop of North Africa and was greatly effective in winning the Arabs to Roman Catholicism. That is including the whole tribes. It was out of these Arab converts that had converted to Catholicism they were going to pick out an Arab prophet to begin the works of this new false religion.

There was a family of young brothers that were sent to spend some time in the desert with the Bedouin tribes for training and to also avoid the plagues that were in the cities. These young boys also had to because their father had just died of an illness. Out of these young boys they would raise up their Arab prophet. His name was Muhammad.

After his grandfather and mother had also died, the young Muhammad was with his uncle when a Roman Catholic monk learned of his identity and said:

“Take your brother’s son back to his country and guard him against the Jews, for by ‘God’, if they see him and know of him that which I know, they will construe evil against him. Great things are in store for this brother’s son of yours.”

This Roman Catholic monk had lit the flames for future Jewish murdering that would take place at the hands of the followers of Muhammad. The Vatican desperately need and wanted the city of Jerusalem. It had a religious significance but the Jews where in the way.

During this time, there was also another situation that was still giving problems to the cause of their plannings. The true Christians in North Africa were still preaching the gospel which is the first angels message found in Revelation 14:6 “And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth…” The Roman Catholicism was growing in strength however they would not put up with any opposition. The Vatican knew they had to create a weapon to eliminate both the Jews and the true Christian believers who refused to convert to Roman Catholicism. Roman looked to North Africa. Roman saw many Arabs as a source of manpower to do their dirty work as they have done throughout the entire history of their existence.

There were some Arabs that had become Roman Catholic and would be used in reporting whatever information they could gather for Rome. Several others were being fitted for the underground network of spying which carried out Rome’s sought after master plan that would control the mass number of Arabs who refused to convert to Catholicism. These are the same methods they would use in other world events as many of us know.

In time, “St. Augustine” would appear on the scene and get involved. Mr. Augustine knew of all the plans that were going on. I might add that this man was certainly not a saint of God. Many of his monasteries served as foundation to seek after, persecute and destroy the Bible manuscripts that where in the hands of the true Christians.

The Roman Catholic Church would create a messiah for the Arabs. This prophet would be someone they could trust and raise up as a great leader for the Arab world. This would have to be a man with charisma whom they could train which would eventually unite all the non-Catholic Arabs behind him and create a strong alliance to be a force in the world that would ultimately capture Jerusalem for the pope.

In one of the Vatican briefings, a Cardinal Bea told us this story:

A wealthy Arabian lady who was a faithful follower of the pope played a tremendous part in this drama. She was a widow named Khadijah. She gave her wealth to the church and retired to a convent but was given an assignment.

This lady was to find a brilliant young man who could be used by the Vatican in creating a new religion and would become the messiahfor the children of Ishmael.

Khadijah had a cousin named Waraquah, who was a devoted and faithful Catholic. The Vatican placed him in an important role and would be Muhammad’s advisor. This man had an overwhelming influence on Muhammad.

Muhammad had to undergo intensive training where he had teachers sent to him for this work.

He studied St. Augustine’s work and it prepared Muhammad for his “great calling”. The Vatican had several Catholic Arabs in North Africa spreading this story about their new great Messiah who was starting to rise up and was about to become their prophet.

In Muhammad’s preparation, he understood as he was taught by the Vatican to believe that his enemies were the Jews and that the only true Christians were in the Roman Catholic faith. Muhammad was taught that anyone apart from the Catholic faith were not true Christians. They are wicked impostors and should be destroyed. Many Muslims truly still believe this today.

Of course Muhammad began to receive his “divine revelations” and his wife’s Catholic cousin Waraquah helped interpret them. This laid the foundations of the Koran. In the midst of the fifth year of Muhammad’s mission, much persecution approached his followers because they refused to worship the idols in the Kaaba.

Muhammad had instructed some of his followers to flee to Abysinnia, where Negus, the Roman Catholic ruler, accepted them because of Muhammad’s views on the “Virgin Queen of Heaven Mother Mary” were so close to Roman Catholic doctrine. These Muslims did receive the needed protection from the Catholic rulers but only because of Muhammad’s so called revelations.

Muhammad later destroyed and conquered Mecca and the Kaaba was cleared of all the idols.

History does prove that before Islam came into existence, the Sabeans in Arabia worshiped the moon-god who was married to the sun-god. This is paganism and is of satanic orgin. They gave birth to three goddesses, who were worshipped throughout the Arab world as “ Daughters of Allah”. An idol was placed at Hazor in Palestine during the 1950’s showing Allah sitting on a throne with the crescent moon on his chest. Some of the same pagan Babylon type idols from before and in other pagan religions.

When Muhammad claimed he had a vision from Allah he said he was told:

“You are the messenger of Allah.”

This started his career as an Arab prophet and where he claims to have received many messages for Allah. By the time Muhammad had perished and was laid to rest, the religion of Islam was exploding into a new false religion. The nomadic Arab tribes were joining forces from all over in the name of Allah and their prophet, Muhammad.

Many of Muhammad’s writings never made it into the Koran. Only some were published. These writings rest in the hands of high ranking men called the Ayatollahs in the Islamic religion.

Cardinal Bea, said:

“These writings are guarded because they contain information that links the Vatican to the creation of Islam.”

Both of these religions do have so much information on each other that, if they were to be exposed, it would create such a big disaster for both religions, everything would just fall apart. In the Koran, the true living God our Lord Jesus Christ is just regarded as a prophet. If the pope was truly Christ earthly vicar, then what would make the pope? That would make the pope almost a prophet. This has caused the followers of Muhammad to fear and respect the pope as another “holy man”. This will make the Islamic people of faith learn to accept the Catholic dogma in the new Vatican II “EcumenicalMovement”.

The pope issued the Arab generals permission to invade and destroy North Africa.

The Vatican helped to pay for the building of these massive Islamic armies but in return there were three favors asked of them:

“1 st. eliminate the Jews and Christians “(the latter were regarded as true believers, which they called infidels)”

2 nd. protect the Augustinian monks and Roman Catholics

3 rd. destroy Jerusalem for the pope” in the Vatican

As time went by, the power of Islam became tremendous—Jews and true Christians were slaughtered, and Jerusalem fell into their hands. Roman Catholics were never attacked, nor were their shrines, during this time. But when the pope asked for Jerusalem, he was surprised at their denial!”

The Arab generals had such military victory Rome could not intimidate them at all. They became a new force to deal with but would be an ally for the future of Rome’s ultimate plans to control the world and through this effort satan would be worshipped by those living in deception. Revelation 12:9 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

The pope final did realize that they had just created a monster in this new uncontrollable religion. The Islamic faith started to call the pope an infidel. The Muslim generals were fixed on destroying the world for their god and then they turned in the direction of Europe.

There were Islamic ambassadors that had approached the Vatican and asked for the papal power to give them permission to invade the European countries. The Vatican was furious; war was going to be the end result no matter what. Temporal power and the control of the world was the basic right of the pope. He wouldn’t just share it with anyone especially those who the pope deemed a heathen.

The pope did rise up an army and called them “the Crusaders” to hold back the children of Ishmael from conquering Catholic Europe. As we know, the Crusades lasted for 1260 years and then fizzled out and Jerusalem slipped out of the Vatican’s hands. Spain, Turkey and Portugal were invaded by Islamic forces and fell. There is a mountain village in Portugal that they did call “Fatima”. This was in honor of Muhammad’s daughter.

There were serious problems with the Muslim armies when they tried to invade the islands of Sardinia and Corsica, which was to eventually invade Italy. The Islamic generals had realized they were too far stretched. They need to have peace talks. Francis of Assisi was one of the negotiators. This resulted into the Muslims being allowed to occupy Turkey in the “Christian” world, and the Catholics were then allowed to occupy Lebanon in the Arab world. They also agreed that the Muslims could build their mosques in Catholic countries without any interference, just as long as Roman Catholicism could flourish in Arab countries. This was an agreement that is visible today. This cannot be disputed. It is a fact!!!

Cardinal Bea said in a Vatican briefing that both the Muslims and the Roman Catholics did agree on blocking and destroying the efforts of their common enemy which is the Bible-believing Christian missionaries. Through these concordats, Satan blocked the children of Ishmael from gaining any knowledge of the scriptures of the True Living God, Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus the Son of the living God said in John 14:6 “…I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

The Islamic community looks at the Bible-believing Christian as a devil or known as bigs who brings poison to the children of Allah. This does explain years almost hardly no ministering in those countries. This has brought little result to the Arab communities.

The Vatican has also engineered a scheme of hatred between the Muslims and the Jews. Before this, they had co-existed somewhat peacefully. There was a control that was kept on the Muslims. This started with Ayatollah, down through the Islamic priests, nuns, and monks.

In 1910, Socialistic Portugal was on the go. Surely the Catholic Church was facing a major problem. There was a wide increasing in number that were forming against the Church.

Around this time, the Jesuits wanted Russia to be involved, and the location of this vision at Fatima could play a key part in pulling Islam to Mother Rome. In 1917, the Virgin Mother Mary appeared in Fatima. “The Mother of God” was a big hit and was very successful. The Portuguese suffered a major defeat as a result.

Worldwide, the Roman Catholics began praying for the conversion of Russia, and of course the Jesuits invented the novenas to Fatima , which they performed throughout North Africa. This did spread good public relations to the Muslim communities. The Arabs thought they were just honoring the daughter of Muhammad, which the Jesuits wanted them to believe.

The result of the vision of Fatima, Pope Pius XII ordered his Nazi army to crush the Russians and the Orthodox religion in hopes to convert the people Roman Catholicism. Over the next few years, the Vatican lost World War II and pope Pius XII then startled the world with his nonsense of a “dancing Sun” vision to keep Fatima in the headlines. This made good religious show biz and the world ate it up. And of course, only pope Pius had the vision.

The result of this matter formed a group of followers that had grown up into a “ Blue Army ” and this was worldwide. This brought in a total of several million faithful Roman Catholics that were ready to die for the Blessed Virgin Mary. However, the Jesuits had their Virgin Mary scheduled to appear four or five times in Russia, China and major appearance in the U.S. This was all a set up and spiritualistic.

 

You may ask what does this have to do with Islam?

Note, Bishop Sheen has stated:

“Our Lady’s appearances at Fatima marked the turning point in the history of the world’s 350 million Muslims. After the death of his daughter, Muhammad wrote that she ‘is the most holy of all women in Paradise, next to Mary.’ He believed that the Virgin Mary chose to be known as Our Lady of Fatima as a sign and a pledge that the Muslims who believe in Christ’s virgin birth, will come to believe in his divinity.”

Bishop Sheen did point that the Muslims in India, Africa and other places that the Muslims are now coming into the Roman Catholic Church. Just as they have accepted the Lady Fatima.
