PROLOGUE: THE WAR FOR THE WORLD

We are at war. A war not fought between countries with militaries and weapons in pursuit of land, oil, or money but a spiritual war fought for the souls of men, their allegiance and worship. It is an ancient battle that has been waged since before the creation of our world but yet shapes and effects our modern day. It is a conflict in which victory has already been decided by those outside of time. To those of us constrained by space and time the battle that has been increasing steadily over the millennia and is at it's greatest tipping point in our world today. It is a war between the forces of good -- Yahweh Elohim, the Creator God of the Bible and the forces of darkness led by who many know as Satan, or as some of his followers refer to him as Lucifer, the Light Bearer. What follows in these subsequent entries is a retelling of this story with particular emphasis of its influence on our world today.

**************************************************

The story begins outside of time before the creation of our world. Yahweh Elohim created the hosts of heaven and one of these angelic beings in particular was named Lucifer, who led the congregations. Yet at some point this was not enough, Lucifer wanted to be worshipped just as Yahweh Elohim was worshipped and he would stop at nothing to accomplish his goal, including rebellion and revolt. The war had begun. Yet before Lucifer's revolution could be accomplished, Yahweh Elohim cast Lucifer and his soldiers out of heaven, thereby discouraging Lucifer's plan to set himself up as the Most High. That is, at least in the heavenly realm...

**************************************************

[Genesis 1-3]

On a separate front, Yahweh Elohim had created our earth in which mankind, who would bear His image, would take care of and steward this world. Lucifer having lost the revolution in the heavens, saw this as an opportunity to rethink his strategy to usurp Yahweh Elohim's power, at least on this new world, and thereby set himself up to be worshipped. So he set out to start another revolution against Yahweh Elohim, only this time with mankind as his army rather than the angels of heaven. Lucifer deceived the man and woman who fell prey to his scheme and essentially ceded stewardship of the earth to Lucifer, giving him the title "prince of the power of the air". In reaction to "the Fall" of mankind from his position of authority, Yahweh Elohim pronounced judgment on both the man, the woman, and Lucifer. With this judgment came a promise of ultimate victory against Lucifier that would be accomplished through mankind, namely one person in particular -- Jesus Christ, Yahweh Elohim incarnate. In spite of this promise, Lucifer continued his ill-fated revolution against Yahweh Elohim.

**************************************************

[Genesis 6]

Lucifer's first plan of attack as Prince of this World was to set out to prevent God's promise of ultimate victory through the man Jesus Christ, who would bring redemption and renewal to mankind and creation, and ultimately, take back control of this world for Yahweh Elohim. Death and sin had already been introduced through mankind's choice in the Garden, and through successive generations had been multiplying exponentially, essentially causing mankind to destroy itself through violence and wickedness. But in order to thwart Yahweh Elohim's promise, Lucifer still had to find a way to prevent rescue and restoration of mankind and creation through the incarnation of Yahweh Elohim. Enter the Sons of God. Otherwise known as Fallen Angels, these dimensional beings visited this world and took for themselves human women [See Genesis 6, Jude 6, Enoch 6,7]. This unnatural union eventually brought forth a world of beings and creatures, who were no longer pure blooded humans, but a new species of hybrids [Jasher 4:18], save one man and his family. That's man's name -- Noah. It was through this man and his family, that Yahweh Elohim would save mankind and creation from His judgment and wrath which he sent in the form of a Great Flood in order to rid the world of this ever-increasing evil and to prevent mankind from being corrupted fully [See Jubilees 5:1-5; 7:21-25]. Upon its destruction, the world was renewed and Yahweh Elohim made a covenant with Noah to never again destroy the earth through flood. Lucifer's strategy to corrupt the bloodline of mankind had been thwarted. Mankind was given a fresh start although throughout the early Biblical Era there were instances of surviving Nephilim [See, Numbers 13:32-33].

**************************************************

[Genesis 10-11]

With Lucifer's first strategy having failed, he moved on to a different tactic. It wasn't long before mankind was once again being affected by the power sin that entered the world through Adam and Eve's disobedience. Mankind put themselves first at the expense of their Creator. This was a perfect atmosphere in which to raise up a leader, Nimrod, who would persuade the peoples to build a city with a tower that reached the heavens and institute a governmental system. Through these means, Lucifer could control the whole world and thereby set himself up as the object of their worship. Yet, before this plan could be fully completed, Yahweh Elohim confused the languages of the peoples and the building of the city stopped and the peoples dispersed. Lucifer's plan to have a one-world governmental system was temporarily ended.

**************************************************

Even though Lucifer was estopped from ruling the world through the government of Babel, it did not stop him from influencing other governments throughout history. Many governments, such as Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, and Rome, were influenced or even controlled by false belief and religion systems. Passages found in Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 provide insight into how Lucifer was the real spirit/force behind the governments of Babylon and Tyre. Further insight is given about Lucifer's desire to be worshipped and his seeming control over the cities of the world through the story of Jesus' temptation at the begining of His earthly ministry (Matthew 4; Luke 4). With these biblical examples, as well as many other secular examples, such as the Roman Empire and Nazi Germany, we begin to see how Lucifer has tried to infiltrate the governments of this world to fulfill his agenda. Lucifer continues this strategy even up to the present day.

**************************************************

[Revelation 13]

The Bible tells us that Lucifer will take one last shot at thwarting Yahweh Elohim's promise of restoration by inciting mankind to revolt against Yahweh Elohim and in the process destroying them (but not before he forces their worship of himself). In Revelation 13 we see the rise of a beast who is given power of all peoples of the world by Lucifer, referred to as the Dragon. There are some who believe that this all-encompassing power given to the beast is already being formed under the guise of the New World Order. The rest of this report will provide information and insight into how the things that are being played out in the world today will help usher in a New World Order ultimately controlled by Lucifer. As alluded to earlier, this final battle between Lucifer and Yahweh Elohim will end in victory for Yahweh Elohim and His people.
