It's blow on Nigeria to have such a person occupying the exalted office of the Senate President in an era of "change".

Rather, it is you who should get your facts right!

The Vatican or Holy See is regarded as a sovereignty carved out of the vicinity where St. Peter's Bassilica is suitable in Rome (Italy).

The Pope is her Sovereign Head.

It was in this capacity he was invited to address the Congress and would be addressing the UN General Assembly later on today.

If you also don't know, the Papal position is more politically influenced than you know.

Have you ever heard of Washington DC or New York City being locked down to traffic on the visit of the Archibishop of Canterbury (Head of the Anglican Communion)? No because he is not a sovereignty like the Pope yet they're both 'religious' leaders in their right.
You're right. Papacy is a union of church and state. It's a kingdom as well as a church. Needless to say that it is an off-shoot of the great Roman Empire.
Read Daniel 7:23-24 and Revelation 13:1. The Bible is describing a kingdom here. It is the Roman empire. In Revelation 17, we have a woman riding upon a scarlet beast with seven heads and ten horns. The beast here is still the same with the ones being described in Daniel 7 and Revelation 13 and the woman (symbol of the church) is the Papal Church of Rome. The woman and the beast in Revelation 17 perfectly describes Papacy (Church-State collabo)grin

All he said was that elrufai sold the property to saraki when elrufai was the minister for fct and they have evidence to show for it while saraki lied that he bought the property in 1996.
However the senators displayed their "toutish" and animalistic behaviours by shouting.

Prosecution counsel bashed senators for making animal noise at that time and wondered the kind of laws they make at the senate.
And he, Saraki, pleaded not guilty to that particular charge even when the evidence says otherwise?

ayoku777:
I've also considered the possibility that the woman could represent the church. Because the two major characters in the bible that are usually represented as bride or woman are Israel or the church.

But one reason I believe the Rev 12 woman is Israel or Jerusalem and not the church is because the woman brought forth the man child (Jesus, the last Adam), not the other way around.

The church did not bring forth the Christ, Christ brought forth the church. Just as Adam brought forth Eve, not the other way around. If that woman is the church, it would imply that the church brought forth the Christ -which is doctrinally incorrect. Unless you don't think the man child is Jesus.

I believe the woman represents Israel or Jerusalem because it was Jerusalem that brought forth the man child (last Adam); not the church.

And this verses agrees with it:

Isaiah 66v7,8,10 -Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a MAN CHILD.

8 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as ZION travailed, she brought forth her children.

10  Rejoice ye with JERUSALEM, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:


According to this verses, Jerusalem brought forth the man child.

And also the other woman in Rev 17, according to the bible is Babylon (Rev 17v5). And Babylon represents the satan-controlled kingdom of this world and her antichrist religious, political and economic systems. Those are the three parts Babylon was eventually divided into (Rev 16v19). Its not just the apostate church.



Some parts of the book of revelation are to be understood literally, like the millenial reign, the white throne judgment, the description of the lake of fire and new Jerusalem. Those are literal descriptions that would be seen. They are not symbolic.

But I agree 100% with the statement in bold red.

But please feel free to show me the points that makes you think the Rev 12 woman represents the church. We all know in part.

Shalom
The Woman could be Israel- not literal israel- but spiritual- the people of God.
Galatians 3:29 .....'And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise'.
A woman in Bible prophecy stands for the people of God- in this case, the church. So if we're seeing a woman with 12 stars, we all know this is refering to Israel- God's chosen people- and in this case, the true believers in God throughout the world, not the nation of Israel or jews.
We have to consider the whole chapter before drawing conclusion.
Rev 12:14 told us the woman was driven into the wilderness for 1260 days. By who? Read Daniel 7:25. The fourth beast of Daniel 7 describes the anti-christ. You see here that the anti-christ is persecuting God's people for A TIME, AND TIMES AND THE DIVIDING OF A TIME. This beast character is the same who is wroth with the seeds of the woman for 1260 days.
Note that a time and times and dividing of a time is the same as 1260 days. A time in the bible prophecy equals a year (Dan 4:32). So a time( 1year) + times (2years) + dividing of a time (1/2 year)= 3.5 years. Given that we have 30 days in the Hebrew calendar (Gen 7:11, 7:24 and 8:4 will give a clue). 3.5years = 42 months. 42 months x 30 days =1260 days. So the seeds of the woman in Rev 12 is still the same as the saints in Dan 7:25. Just 2 difference verses of different books of the Bible saying the same thing.
Please note also that a day in Bible prophecy means a year (Ezekiel 4:6). In essence 1260 prophetic days = 1260 literal years.
See also, the beast of Revelation 13. It's the same beast as that of Daniel 7 and is to continue 'rule' for 42 months (1260 days) before it receive a mortal wound on its head.
We all know that true bible believers suffered severe persecution 538-1798AD (exactly 1260 years) and it was after this time that we had the great reformation.
This Harlot woman riding a beast was the persecutor.
The woman in Chapter 17 is also a church, an apostate church which is why the Bible calls her Mother of Harlots. Since God sees the church as being married to Him. The woman, Babylon is guilty of committing "fornication" and is a "LovePeddler". Well, we need to find out the BIBLICAL meaning of fornication. In the Bible, fornication is the act of committing adultery against God by mixing with other Pagan nations and practices(traditions) and going after other gods. Look at how God described this in the book of Ezekiel:
Ezekiel 16:26-32.
Notice that this woman- church- sits on a beast- kingdom/country. So we have a church-state union here. Let discerning minds connect the dots

The woman in Rev 12 isn't mary. That woman represents the true church- not a 4-walled building- while the woman in chapter 17 describes an apostate church.

Rev 12v17 -And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

In this passage, who is the seed of the woman? It is Jesus, the man child (Rev 12v5)

And who are the remnant of her seed (Jesus)? It is the believing jews and gentiles. That's why it said "those which have the testimony of Jesus Christ".

The remnant of the seed of the woman is the Church; believers in Christ; the seed of Abraham after the Spirit. While the woman herself is Israel; the seed of Abraham after the flesh.

Its not so hard.

Shalom
Actually, the woman being referred to is the body of Christ, the CHURCH.
Just as this woman represents the true church, the woman in Revelation 17 riding a beast represents an apostate church.

The book of Revelation and few others are not to be taken literarily. They're symbolic.

Christianity EtcWhy Islam Cannot Be The Antichrist by otr1(op): 6:55am On Sep 13, 2015
There are two main popular teachings today about who the antichrist is. One is that Islam is the antichrist. And the other mainstream teaching is that the antichrist will be a future political leader, who will appear (as some believe) AFTER the church has been "raptured" to heaven. So here we will prove from the Bible why these two mainstream teachings are false.

So why can't Islam and the idea of a future antichrist be true? Let's take a look at what Paul said about the "man of sin".
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 ...'Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.'
First, let's take a look at the name "son of perdition" which Paul calls the antichrist. There is only one other place in the Bible where this name "son of perdition" is used. Let's take a look.
John 17:12 ...'While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.'
Jesus here is referring to JUDAS. And who was Judas? He was a "follower of Jesus", until he allowed Satan to enter into his heart to deceive and betray His Lord. So Judas was a deceiver from "amongst God's people". Now why did Paul reference the man of sin also as the "son of perdition"? Because he was showing us that the antichrist would be a deceiver from WITHIN THE CHURCH. The antichrist would APPEAR to be "one of us", but in fact would be a deceiver, working for Satan.
Let's take a look at what John says about antichrist in the following verses:
1 John 2:18-19 ...'Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. THEY WENT OUT FROM US, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.'
John is backing up the principle that Paul described, saying that antichrist would "go out from us". In other words, the antichrist would have been one of us. The antichrist would be WITHIN THE CHURCH, but then would go out from the church and make himself manifest by his deeds.
So we have a clear teaching here that the "man of sin", the "antichrist" would SEEM TO BE ONE OF US, but in fact would be working for Satan and be a deceiver. Now many people focus on the word "ANTI-christ" and deem it as someone who would openly oppose Christ Jesus and openly deny Christ. But remember, the meaning of the word "anti" here can also mean "IN PLACE OF". So antichrist can also mean "in place of Christ".

So the true antichrist would be someone who started within the church and seems to be one of us, and would actually put himself in place of Christ and deceive from within. Now what does this mean for Islam? It means that Islam CANNOT in any way be the antichrist, because Islam have always been OUTSIDE the church, and have always been clear opposers of Christ Jesus. And in the same way this also applies to the mainstream belief of a future political leader being antichrist. This cannot be accepted, because as we have already stated, the Bible teaches that antichrist would be one of us, not someone outside the church.
Now some people get hung up on the fact that "the man of sin" is singular, therefore the antichrist will be a single being. And they say it cannot be the pope, because there have been many popes throughout history. Well, we can simply clear this up. Take the high priest in the Old Testament. God said that only the high priest could enter the most holy place in the tabernacle. So this means that only one man (Aaron) could ever enter right? No. Because there were many successors to Aaron's position as high priest. Therefore this singular term covers the POSITION rather than the person. So WHOEVER was in the position of pope would be antichrist.
"Sitteth in the Temple of God"
Something else that Paul reveals in 2 Thessalonians 2 is that the man of sin would "sit in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God". This is where the mainstream teaching of a future antichrist bases its teaching. From this description many are waiting for a future antichrist who will sit in the rebuilt temple in Israel. Now what the majority of Christians miss regarding this is that the New Testament clearly teaches us that the "temple" has shifted from the physical to the SPIRITUAL.
1 Corinthians 3:16-17 ...'Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy,which temple ye are.'
1 Corinthians 6:19 ...'What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?'

So Paul now clearly teaches that the temple of God is US, the people of "THE CHURCH". We, our bodies are the temple of God, and God dwells in us. So we CANNOT now say that Paul is referring to a physical temple in 2 Thessalonians. Paul is referring to someone who sits in "the church", and who exalts himself, proclaiming that he is "GOD ON EARTH".
Who sits in "the church" proclaiming to be "God on Earth? "THE POPE!
Is Islam the antichrist? No, Islam CANNOT fulfil the role of the Bible antichrist.
Is the antichrist a future, single, political leader? No, a future political leader CANNOT fulfil the role of the Bible antichrist.
These mainstream teachings originated from the Jesuits in order to take the focus off the Roman Catholic Church as being antichrist. And unfortunately, the majority of Christians today have fallen for these false teachings, and have forgotten the great truths that the Protestant reformers revealed to the world.
