Have We All Been Marked?

The prophet Ezekiel mentions a mark on the forehead in Ezekiel 9:4. In this passage, God commands a man clothed in linen, likely an angel, to go through Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who sigh and groan over the abominations committed in the city. These marked individuals are spared from the coming judgment, while the rest of the population faces destruction.

Ezekiel 9:4 states, “And the Lord said to him, ‘Pass through the city, through Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations that are committed in it.’”

Unlike the external symbols used in false religious systems, God’s mark is a divine seal of spiritual belonging.and divine protection, sparing the righteous from judgment. Interestingly, the Hebrew word for "mark" in this passage is Tav (תָּו), which in ancient script resembled an X or cross. However, this was not a physical mark but a spiritual one, distinguishing those who remained faithful to God.

A similar concept appears in Revelation 7:3, where God's servants receive a seal on their foreheads:"Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads."

This sealing represents divine ownership and protection, ensuring that those who belong to God are spiritually marked as His. Unlike the mark of the beast in Revelation 13:16-17, which is a visible sign of allegiance to the Antichrist, God's mark is invisible, not a physical brand but a spiritual imprint.

Revelation 9:4 further clarifies that only those with God’s seal on their foreheads are protected:"And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads."

This divine seal is a stark contrast to the marks used in pagan and mystery religions, where initiates were physically marked with water, ash, or symbols on the forehead.

If God's mark is spiritual and unseen, then a physical marking—especially one associated with an external ritual—may not be from Him. Instead, it could signify an initiation into a system of belief that blinds rather than enlightens. This raises the question: Have those baptized and christened with the cross on their forehead received an imitation mark, one tied to a tradition of false worship? If so, then true believers must reject the external marks of man and seek the unseen mark of God, which is given not by ritual but by the Holy Spirit.

Only Christ can set people free from the marks of deception, sealing His own with an eternal sign of redemption that is not visible to the world but known fully by God.

In Catholic baptism, the priest not only pours water onto the child's forehead but also marks it with a cross, a direct imprint on the area associated with spiritual vision and awareness. If the god of this world blinds minds, as 2 Corinthians 4:4 states, then this ritual could act as an early conditioning, ensuring that from infancy, individuals are aligned with the authority of this world rather than with the gospel of Christ.

This could explain why many Catholics, regardless of how much evidence is presented to them that Roman Catholicism is not the Church of Christ, refuse to believe it. If they have been marked from infancy with a ritual that symbolically seals their spiritual vision, they may be unable to see the truth even when it is plainly revealed. This aligns with Revelation 13:16, which describes a mark on the forehead as a sign of allegiance and control. Could infant baptism, then, be a way of placing individuals under the dominion of the god of this world from the moment they are born?

I was Christened in an English church, yet I couldn't help but notice that Protestants still worship on Sunday rather than the true holy day, Saturday. English bishops also wear the mitre, a symbol with deep historical and esoteric significance. What stood out even more was the name of a church in Oxfordshire—Adderbury. The name itself is striking, with "Adder" referring to a snake, a creature often associated with hidden knowledge, deception, and ancient symbolism. Even more unsettling is the presence of the pentagram, a symbol with layered meanings, prominently linked to mystery traditions and esoteric power. Could these elements suggest a deeper, concealed influence within the religious institutions that many assume to be separate from older systems of worship?

If baptism and christening involve marking the forehead with water, an element sacred to Enki, could this signify an early branding under the dominion of the god of this world? Water is poured onto the forehead of the baptized, precisely where the third eye, the center of spiritual perception, resides. This act, combined with the mark of the cross, may symbolize an initiation into a system not rooted in the true gospel, but in an ancient mystery tradition.

If this is the case, then have all those baptized and christened unknowingly received the mark of the beast? The idea that infant baptism, a practice tied to the traditions of Rome, could be a hidden initiation into a system that blinds the mind is worth serious reflection. True baptism in the Bible is a conscious act of faith and repentance, yet infant baptism imposes a mark on those who cannot consent. If the mark of the beast is about allegiance, deception, and spiritual control, then what does it mean for those who have been baptized into a system that veils the truth?

Christ calls us to freedom, and His truth is what sets us free. I was once marked, but on March 31st, three years ago, as I lay on my deathbed, His voice called out to me. In that moment, I was unmarked, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb, and set free from what once bound me. Where the beast seeks to claim, Christ redeems. Where deception blinds, truth restores sight. What remains is the choice—will we follow the traditions of men, or the Word of God?

Have we unknowingly been enslaved to a false god—the god of this world—without our consent?

Baptism in the Bible was an act of conscious faith and repentance, but infant baptism imposes this ritual upon a child before they can make such a choice. Deuteronomy 1:39 states:

"Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it."

This verse makes it clear that children do not have the capacity to discern between good and evil. If a child is innocent before God, why is there a need for infant baptism? The idea that a baby is born in need of immediate spiritual cleansing contradicts the very notion of free will and personal faith. More importantly, if Enki is the god of water, wisdom, and hidden knowledge, could the act of pouring water onto an infant’s forehead—specifically onto the third eye—be a ritualistic way of spiritually blinding them from birth?

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."

Ancient pagan religious traditions, particularly those associated with Ea (Enki) and other elemental gods, used water, ash, and cross-like symbols in ritual practices, including forehead markings. These traditions can be found in Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Canaanite religious systems, where such markings signified purification, divine favor, or servitude to a deity.

Water played a significant role in these rituals. In Sumerian and Babylonian traditions, Ea (Enki), the god of water, wisdom, and magic, was central to purification rites. His priests often anointed worshippers with water on the head or forehead as a sign of divine "blessing". Ritual washing in sacred rivers, such as the Euphrates, was commonly practiced for cleansing sins and invoking Enki’s favour. In Egyptian religion, priests of Amun, Osiris, and Isis performed purification rites in the Nile and sometimes anointed their foreheads with sacred water, mirroring the concept of the "water of life" found in Mesopotamian traditions. Similarly, Hindu and Vedic traditions continue ancient forehead-marking practices using sacred water from the Ganges.

Ash was another element used in forehead rituals. In Mesopotamian traditions, worshippers of Baal and Ishtar sometimes marked themselves with ash as a sign of devotion or mourning. Burnt offerings produced sacred ash, which was then used to mark foreheads in submission to the gods. Assyrian warriors and priests smeared ash on their faces before battle or religious ceremonies. Similar practices were found in Egypt and Canaanite religions, where mourners for Osiris rubbed ash or mud on their foreheads. In Hindu traditions, the Tripundra, a three-lined forehead marking made of sacred ash, is applied by Shaivite Hindus as a sign of devotion to Shiva, suggesting a parallel to earlier Mesopotamian rites.

Cross-like symbols also appeared in ancient religious traditions. In Mesopotamia (Babylon), the Sumerian Tav (𐤕, ת) resembled an X or a cross and was commonly used in seals and markings.

These widespread forehead-marking practices suggest that Ezekiel’s vision in Ezekiel 9:4 may have been a direct contrast to the pagan marks used in idolatrous worship. While God’s mark served as protection for the righteous, pagan religious systems marked their followers as a sign of submission to false gods. If the Tau was originally associated with the cross of Tammuz, who is often considered the offspring of Enki, the god of water, then forehead markings with water—such as those performed in baptisms or christenings—may bear a deeper esoteric significance. Could this indicate that those baptized or christened are unknowingly receiving a mark tied to an ancient system of false worship, rather than the true gospel? If so, then Christ alone has the power to set people free from this unseen spiritual bondage.

The upside-down cross is a symbol associated with Tammuz representing death, resurrection, and seasonal cycles. In ancient Mesopotamian belief, Tammuz was a fertility god whose death and return symbolized the changing of the seasons, particularly linked to the cycle of planting and harvest.

Easter, often thought to be a Christian holiday, actually has roots in the pagan Mother goddess Ishtar (Astarte). The celebration of fertility in pagan traditions was based on the spring equinox, a time when the rebirth of nature was honoured through rituals involving eggs, rabbits, and fertility rites. This aligns with the worship of Tammuz, whose death was mourned in the winter and whose revival in the spring symbolized new life and renewal.

It is no surprise therefore that on February 24, 1582, Pope Gregory XIII issued the papal bull "Inter gravissimas," which translates to "Among the most serious" or "Among the gravest matters" in English. This decree introduced the leap year and established the Gregorian calendar as a correction to the Julian calendar. The name of the bull reflects the urgency and importance the pope placed on reforming the calendar to align with the solar year and to maintain the timing of Roman pagan feast days—that honoured false gods.

Rather than restoring God’s biblical timekeeping, Pope Gregory XIII ensured that the world remained aligned with the pagan Roman solar calendar by formalizing the leap year system. If he had truly followed Christ, he would have removed the pagan names of the months, many of which are dedicated to Roman gods and emperors, and reinstated the biblical calendar based on God’s appointed times rather than a system deeply rooted in sun worship.

Instead of bringing time into accordance with God’s commands, he cemented a calendar that continues to honour pagan deities and traditions, keeping the world under the influence of the Roman system rather than aligning it with biblical truth. Many of the so-called "Christian" feast days maintained in this calendar were in fact repackaged versions of ancient Roman festivals dedicated to pagan gods, allowing pagan traditions to continue under a new religious guise.

This has absolutely NOTHING to do with Christ

A key ritual still observed today is the marking of foreheads with ash on Ash Wednesday. This tradition has no biblical foundation and instead parallels ancient pagan mourning practices for Tammuz, where devotees would place ash or dust on their heads as a sign of sorrow over his seasonal death. Similarly, Lent has no connection to Christ but traces its origins to the 40-day mourning period for Tammuz, an observance that predates Christianity and was dedicated to lamenting his descent into the underworld before his return.

It is no surprise, then, that the upside-down cross (the symbol for Tammuz) appears on the papal chair, supposedly under the guise of honouring Peter, though there is no historical evidence that Peter was crucified upside down. Instead, the use of this symbol aligns more with ancient pagan traditions of Enki and Tammuz rather than with true Christian faith. If these connections hold, then many modern religious practices may be carrying forward hidden elements of Babylonian worship rather than the teachings of Christ.

Revelation 13:15

"And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed."

The Bible warns against such markings. Leviticus 19:28 forbids tattooing or making marks on the body, which could have been a reference to these pagan religious practices. In Ezekiel 9:4-6, God commands an invisible (spiritual) mark to be placed on the foreheads of the righteous to set them apart from idolaters, implying that similar practices were common in pagan cults. This contrast highlights the difference between those who belong to God and those who bear the marks of false worship.

This historical context ties directly into Revelation 13:16-17, where the "mark of the beast" is placed on the forehead or hand as a sign of allegiance. Some scholars believe this symbolism originates from Babylonian and Roman practices of branding slaves or followers of religious cults. In ancient times, being marked signified submission, devotion, or servitude to a deity or ruler. The mark of the beast could represent a modern version of this ancient system, where people are physically branded as belonging to a false power.

Could this help explain the following verse:

Revelation 18:13

"And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men."

It is likely that the pagan religions associated with Enki and other gods used forehead markings as a means of control, religious initiation, or servitude. Ezekiel’s vision contrasts God’s protective mark with the idolatrous marks of false religions, reinforcing the idea that those marked by the beast belong to a system that opposes God. This theme continues in Revelation, where the mark of the beast represents allegiance to a global system of deception and false worship. If ancient forehead markings symbolized submission to pagan gods, could modern religious practices that involve marking the forehead—such as christening and anointing—be echoes of these ancient rites? Are people unknowingly pledging allegiance to a system they do not fully understand?

Enki the hidden god of this world has played a significant role in shaping human civilization through wisdom, water, and creation. In the ancient Sumerian pantheon, he was known as the Lord of the Earth, holding dominion over knowledge and the forces that governed existence. His influence extended beyond mythology, leaving traces in religious traditions, biblical prophecy, and esoteric knowledge.

Enki, also known as Ea in later Akkadian traditions, was among the most powerful deities of Mesopotamia. His symbols included flowing water, fish, and the multi-horned crown, signifying his divine status.

The connection between Enki and the Bible is not immediately apparent, yet parallels emerge when examining the themes of Revelation and Daniel. Revelation 12:9 speaks of the great dragon, the serpent called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world. The serpent has long been a symbol of wisdom, and in Mesopotamian mythology, Enki was closely associated with serpents, much like the figure in the Garden of Eden (near the Euphrates river) who granted Adam and Eve forbidden knowledge. This same motif of wisdom as both a gift and a curse appears in myths like Atrahasis and the Enuma Elish, where Enki provides hidden knowledge to humanity.

Daniel 7 describes a vision of a beast rising from the sea, stirred by the four winds of heaven. This imagery ties into Enki’s dominion over water, as he ruled the primordial deep known as the Abzu, the source of wisdom. If the beast from the sea represents unseen forces that manipulate the world, then Enki’s influence may still be at play, operating beneath the surface of history.

The significance of the seven-horned crown in ancient Mesopotamian religion suggests another link between Enki and the dominion of this world. "Gods" (demons) were depicted wearing multi-horned crowns, with the number of horns denoting power. The supreme god Anu was associated with the seven-horned crown, but Enki, as a major deity, likely bore a similar headdress. The number seven carries deep meaning in both Mesopotamian and biblical traditions, often symbolizing completeness or divine order. If Enki wore such a crown, it would signify his rule over the earth and his role in guiding humanity’s knowledge—either towards enlightenment or towards deception.

Revelation 13:1 states:

"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy."

The Bible refers to the god of this world in 2 Corinthians 4:4, stating that he has blinded the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel. This passage suggests a being who controls knowledge in a way that obscures truth rather than revealing it. If Enki, the ancient god of wisdom, technology, and civilization, matches this description, then his influence may not be about liberation but about keeping humanity bound to the material world.

Ea, (Enki) played a crucial role in shaping human civilization by imparting forbidden divine knowledge. Among his greatest creations were the Apkallu, seven wisdom sages who were sent to guide humanity in its early days.

The Apkallu were semi-divine beings created by Ea to serve as advisors to the first human kings before the Great Flood. These beings were believed to be part-human and part-fish, emerging from the Apsu, the freshwater abyss where Ea resided. They were given divine wisdom to teach humanity essential skills such as agriculture, law, writing, medicine, and sacred rituals necessary to maintain cosmic order.

Each of the seven Apkallu had a specific role in shaping early human civilization. Uanna, also known as Oannes, taught humans literacy and craftsmanship, while Uannedugga provided divine understanding of religious rites. Enmedugga was responsible for laws and justice, Enmegalamma introduced temple architecture and sacred rituals, and Enmebulugga explained agriculture and irrigation. Anenlilda taught healing and medicine, and Utuabzu connected humans with celestial knowledge. These sages served as advisors and high priests to early kings, ensuring that divine wisdom was passed down to humanity.

The Apkallu also played a role in Mesopotamian flood myths, such as the Epic of Atrahasis and the Epic of Gilgamesh. They were believed to have preserved knowledge before the Great Flood, ensuring that wisdom was not lost. However, after the Flood, divine beings no longer directly imparted knowledge to humans. Instead, their part-human descendants, known as the ummanu or human sages, continued their teachings, marking a shift from divine instruction to human learning.

Ea’s creation of the Apkallu highlights the forbidden knowledge given to early humanity. These sages served as mediators between the gods and mortals, much like the Pontifex Maximus, which translates to "greatest bridge builder." Their role was to ensure that civilization was established upon sacred knowledge, maintaining a connection between the divine and human realms.

After the Great Flood, the Apkallu were no longer permitted to walk among humans as divine beings. Instead, their wisdom was passed down through human sages known as the ummânū, a class of scribes, priests, and scholars responsible for preserving sacred knowledge. Some later traditions suggest that part-human descendants of the Apkallu existed, blending divine and human lineage, continuing their legacy in a different form.

The Uruk List of Kings and Sages provides key insight into this change. It describes the first seven Apkallu as divine beings who lived before the Flood. After the Flood, kings were no longer guided by fully divine Apkallu, but by their part-human descendants. These post-Flood sages were still known for their wisdom and power, but they were now mortal, unlike the original Apkallu.

Another important text, Bīt Mēseri (House of Confinement), describes some Apkallu as hybrid beings. It states that while some Apkallu were of human descent, they still possessed divine abilities. However, some later myths portray them as rebellious, suggesting that certain Apkallu influenced kings negatively, leading to their association with demons or underworld spirits. This shift in perception shows that their role in human affairs was no longer purely benevolent. (That could explain all the bloodshed)

Some scholars compare the post-Flood Apkallu to the Nephilim in the Bible (Genesis 6:1-4), who were said to be the offspring of divine beings (sons of God) and human women. Like the Apkallu, the Nephilim were hybrid figures with superhuman wisdom and strength, yet they were ultimately rejected by the divine order after the Flood.

The descendants of the Apkallu, despite their diminished divine nature, remained highly influential in Mesopotamian society. They became the ummânū, the wise men, scribes, and priests who preserved and transmitted divine knowledge. This is why later Mesopotamian kings, particularly in Assyria and Babylon, had royal advisors who were believed to be spiritually connected to the Apkallu, acting as intermediaries between the divine and human realms.

The evolution of the Apkallu's role marks a significant transition in the ancient world. Before the Flood, they were fully divine, fish-like sages who directly guided humanity. After the Flood, their presence was reduced to part-human descendants who carried on their teachings in a more limited form. Some later myths even depict them as dangerous or rebellious, linking them to demonic influences. This shift represents the transition from direct divine guidance to human wisdom based on ancient teachings, a theme echoed in many other mythological and religious traditions.

If we interpret the seven heads of the Beast from the Sea as literal offspring rather than symbolic kings or empires, then we must consider the possibility that these heads represent actual divine-human hybrids, potentially linked to Ea (Enki) and his Apkallu descendants. This interpretation suggests that the Beast from the Sea is not just a political entity but a literal bloodline tracing back to ancient supernatural beings.

In Mesopotamian mythology, Ea (Enki) was known for creating, interbreeding with, and bestowing divine knowledge upon humans. He fathered multiple hybrid offspring, including the Apkallu, the seven sages sent to guide early human civilization. Many ancient rulers and heroes, such as Gilgamesh, were also believed to have divine parentage, often tracing their lineage back to Enki or other gods. Some myths suggest that after the Great Flood, divine and human bloodlines intermingled, producing powerful yet corrupt figures. If Enki's offspring carried his divine or forbidden knowledge, the seven heads of the Beast from the Sea could represent his literal bloodline, ruling over humanity through ancient civilizations.

If the seven heads are indeed descendants of Enki, they would have inherited his wisdom and power. These beings could have been ruling figures or demigods who held supernatural authority over early civilizations. The Beast from the Sea could then be the final descendant, the last and most powerful offspring, possessing the combined knowledge and influence of his predecessors. This concept aligns with biblical and extra-biblical traditions such as Genesis 6:4, which describes the Nephilim as the offspring of divine beings and human women. Similarly, Enochian traditions speak of the Watchers, fallen angels who fathered hybrid rulers—paralleling the Apkallu and their human descendants. In Revelation 13, the Beast inherits power from the Dragon, much like a bloodline inheriting divine knowledge.

If the seven heads of the Beast are linked to historical rulers, there may be evidence in the Mesopotamian King List, which records semi-divine kings who reigned for thousands of years. The seven Apkallu were said to have guided early kings before the Flood, much like the antediluvian patriarchs in the Bible. These ancient offspring could have established the first civilizations, passed down forbidden knowledge, and defied divine order. Although many were wiped out in the Flood, traces of their bloodline may have remained, culminating in the Beast from the Sea as the final, resurrected descendant of this lineage.

If the Beast represents a literal being, then the Antichrist could be the last offspring of this ancient divine-human race. He would inherit the power of all seven heads, making him the culmination of an ancient, forbidden bloodline. This aligns with certain occult traditions where ruling elites claim descent from divine kings. Some interpretations suggest that the Antichrist will possess supernatural abilities, potentially linked to his ancient genetic heritage. The Beast from the Sea is given power by the Dragon, which could symbolize an ancient lineage aligned with rebellious gods. The Beast revives an ancient empire, possibly restoring a pre-Flood world order where divine rulers controlled humanity. The world worships the Beast, perhaps recognizing him as the return of an ancient ruler once thought lost.

If the seven heads of the Beast represent actual offspring of Enki, then the Antichrist may be the ultimate descendant of an ancient divine-human hybrid race. He could claim divine authority based on his lineage, much like ancient kings did. His empire could be an attempt to restore a lost system where divine rulers once governed the earth. If this interpretation is correct, then the rise of the Antichrist would mark the return of a lineage that has secretly influenced human history since the dawn of civilization.

In Mesopotamian tradition, Enki (Ea) was a creator god, trickster, and teacher who bestowed divine forbidden knowledge upon humanity. He created the Apkallu, the seven sages who shaped civilization by instructing early rulers. If these Apkallu produced human offspring, they could have become the semi-divine kings who ruled the first great human empires.

Many ancient civilizations recorded divine rulers or semi-divine figures who claimed descent from gods. The concept of the Beast’s seven heads representing a lineage could correspond with historical figures such as Alulim, the first recorded Mesopotamian king, and Gilgamesh, who claimed to be two-thirds divine. Others, including Nimrod from Genesis 10, Sargon of Akkad, the Egyptian pharaohs, and the Caesars (Pontifex Maximus), were rulers who asserted divine parentage and supernatural authority over their people. If this divine lineage continued, the final head of the Beast could be the Antichrist himself, the ultimate inheritor of this forbidden bloodline.

Secret societies and royal bloodlines have long claimed descent from divine ancestors. Ancient kings often proclaimed themselves as "sons of the gods," preserving the idea of a sacred heritage. Mystery religions, esoteric traditions, and later secret orders may have safeguarded this knowledge, passing it down through powerful ruling dynasties. If the Beast’s heads represent such a lineage, then they could signify an unbroken line of rulers who have preserved and advanced this supernatural heritage until the modern age.

If the Antichrist is the final head of the Beast, he may present himself as the heir of lost wisdom, reviving the divine rulership of the past. He may claim supernatural abilities linked to his ancient bloodline, deceiving the world into following him. Biblical passages such as Daniel 2:43 suggest a mixed or hybrid race in the last days, while Revelation 13:2 states that the Beast inherits power from the Dragon, much like ancient rulers who claimed their authority came from divine beings. This aligns with the idea that the Antichrist will not merely be a political leader but a supernatural figure connected to an ancient lineage.

Genesis 3:15

"And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."

Throughout history, various secretive groups have claimed to descend from divine rulers. Egyptian pharaohs considered themselves gods on earth, Roman emperors traced their lineage to deities, and the Merovingian kings were believed by some to have bloodlines reaching back to ancient Mesopotamia. Occult orders such as the Rosicrucians and Freemasons have connections to these ancient traditions and may preserve the belief in divine rulership. Could the Antichrist emerge from one of these bloodlines, claiming to be the true heir of the lost divine kingship?

The return of divine rulers in the end times may not be a metaphor but a literal resurgence of an ancient hybrid lineage. The Antichrist, as the Beast from the Sea, could be the last and greatest descendant of these supernatural bloodlines. He may attempt to restore a lost golden age, presenting himself as the rightful ruler of humanity. If he possesses the ancient heritage of divine beings, he could use this claim to deceive the world into worshipping him.

The Beast’s seven heads could represent the literal offspring of Enki, the god of wisdom and water. These offspring may have ruled the earliest civilizations, establishing systems of knowledge and governance that continued long after the Flood. This bloodline could have survived through secret societies and ruling dynasties, hidden from view but always exerting influence. The Antichrist may ultimately be the final heir, the one who brings this ancient legacy to its culmination, using his lineage to deceive and control the world in the end times.

Many ancient prophecies, both biblical and extra-biblical, describe a returning ruler who will be a supernatural being or hybrid, reclaim the throne of ancient divine kings, and deceive the world into worshiping him as a god. The Bible warns of a false ruler in Daniel 7:23-25, where a final leader arises speaking blasphemies against God, resembling the priest-kings of Mesopotamia who claimed divine authority. Revelation 13:3-4 describes how one of the Beast’s heads suffers a fatal wound but is healed, causing the world to worship him, which could symbolize the resurrection of an ancient bloodline or even the physical return of a long-dead god-king. In 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10, the Antichrist is said to come with false signs and wonders, suggesting he may possess supernatural abilities inherited from an ancient lineage.

Esoteric traditions also foresee a time when a god-king will return. Theosophy and New Age movements predict a "World Teacher" or "Maitreya," a divine-human hybrid who will unite the world. Freemasonry and Rosicrucian traditions anticipate the return of a "Philosopher King," an heir to Atlantis and Babylon’s priest-kings. Islamic eschatology speaks of the Dajjal, a false messiah who will claim divine descent and perform miracles. If ancient texts and occult traditions all predict a returning ruler, the Antichrist could present himself as the fulfillment of these expectations, deceiving humanity into accepting him as the heir of Enki, the Apkallu, or the lost Nephilim bloodline.

Throughout history, elite families, rulers, and secret societies have claimed descent from ancient gods or semi-divine beings. The Egyptian pharaohs considered themselves the sons of Ra, Osiris, and other gods. Babylonian priest-kings ruled as representatives of Enki and Anu. The Merovingian kings of France and Europe claimed descent from divine beings or fallen angels. Freemasons and Rosicrucians have long promoted the idea of a hidden lineage of divine wisdom. Many New Age and occult groups believe in a coming hybrid god-man who will restore balance. These groups may have worked for centuries to preserve the belief in a divine bloodline, waiting for the right moment to reintroduce it.

The reason for preserving this bloodline is clear—power, control, and deception. Claiming descent from the gods allows one to rule over others as a divine authority. Many occult traditions expect the return of a ruler from an ancient lineage, and the Antichrist could use these secret groups to create the illusion of a prophesied return, making his rule seem inevitable.

The Bīt Mēseri text warns that some Apkallu turned against God, serving as watchers of divine knowledge and influencing rulers, much like the fallen angels of biblical traditions. The Enuma Elish portrays Marduk as a divine figure who becomes Babylon’s supreme god, establishing human rulership under divine authority—an archetype that resembles the Antichrist’s future rise to power.

If the seven heads of the Beast from the Sea are actual divine-human offspring, then their bloodline may have continued through ruling families and secret societies. The Antichrist could be the final heir of this forbidden lineage, using his ancient heritage to deceive the world.

A "lost king" may soon be revealed, claiming to be the rightful heir to Babylon, Egypt, or Atlantis. He may present himself as the fulfillment of prophecies, positioning himself as humanity’s saviour. Through advanced technology, supernatural power, and ancient wisdom, he will attempt to restore a pre-Flood order where divine rulers controlled humanity. He may promise enlightenment, immortality, or a new divine state, but his true goal will be absolute control.

Could this happen in our time? Many elites and occult societies are actively working to resurrect ancient divine wisdom. If a figure emerged claiming to be the heir of an ancient god-king, millions would follow him. If he could perform false miracles, he could unite religions, nations, and rulers under his empire, fulfilling the prophecies of the Beast.

It's no surprise that Caesar refused to bow to Christ—he served a false god, as one of his descendants and devoted followers.

No one has the right to mark you with anything as an unconsenting baby. If this is the mark of the beast, then many—myself included—would have been bound to Satan without our knowledge. But the truth came to set us free, while pagan Rome spread the lie, deceiving the world and corrupting it under its false authority.

Repent, and come out of her.
