In recent years, since the Reformation and especially since the time of enlightenment, we have been informed about the atrocities committed in the name of the Christian religion, especially during the epoch when Christianity was forced upon the nations. We came to know about the seven crusades (1095-1291 A.D.), when 22 million Jews, Muslims and others were murdered by the Catholic crusaders. We also learned about all the cruelties the church was responsible for in the Dark Ages By the writings of historians we found out about the many people who could not submit to that religion and therefore were declared witches and heretics, they were tortured, tormented to death and burned at the stake – in one concentrated raid 50,000 were murdered! We also know about the inquisition, the slaughtering of the Huguenots and much more. Millions upon millions of people were put to death by the Church of Rome, after she attained worldly power. The earth is saturated with the blood of the martyrs.

The instant a religion receives worldly power it becomes an instrument of Satan who is the God of this world. Jesus Christ said, “My Kingdom is not of this world.” When the Christian religion became the State Church she exercised the murderous power of Satan without mercy. She looked upon herself as the established "Kingdom of God", which does not exist on earth in the natural realm at all. Indeed the church has practised the most terrible injustice on earth in the name of Christ. Salvation was being preached and the contrary was practised. For all who chose to inform themselves, the church became for ever untrustworthy.

We also find that the history of Islam from the very beginning left behind a trail of violence and aggression, right to the collapse of the Osmanic Kingdom at the end of World War I. We are now actually experiencing what is increasingly being done in the name of Allah, the merciful and the one full of grace, but the atrocities are committed in his name without any grace or mercy.

For all who can see it is obvious that religions who assume worldly power and exercise the same do not act in the will of God, but rather under the influence of Satan who presents himself in the image of an angel of light, or as the Archangel Gabriel. Who gives anyone the right to subdue the nations and to force them into their religion? We now have the Christian nations, the nations of Islam, the ones with Hinduism, with Buddhism, with Confucianism, with Shintoism etc. Indeed, the world is split into many religious and political parts. All claim to be on the right way.

I, the writer of this brochure, have acquired personal knowledge about all these religions. For 40 years I have travelled non-stop to over 120 nations on every continent, have come to know people of all religions and faiths and know that the majority of them are against violence and wish to live in peace. On the other hand I observed the fanaticism,, especially in connection with religion, which increasingly manifests itself in cruel and most abominable actions.

What happened on September 11^th, 2001, has shocked the Western World, especially the USA, to the core. With the collapse of the World Trade Center came the loss of the false sense of security. Whosoever knows the Holy Scriptures and the prophetic predictions therein is able to place the present political and religious developments correctly. For it is written: »Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? Shall there be evil in a city and the LORD hath not done it?«

»Surely the LORD GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants, the prophets.« (Amos 3:6-7). The extraordinary developments in Europe since the peaceful change in 1989 as well as the current political events are in connection with the fulfilment of Bible prophecy. In the midst of ways, terrorism and catastrophes of all kinds which have been predicted for this time, the call for peace and safety is getting even louder.

When the tower of Babel collapsed the people who were one and spoke one common language were confused and scattered. Now as a result of the collapse of the twin towers the many nations and languages stand united. The beginning of the »New World Order« is in effect since January 1st, 2002. The peoples of Europe, starting with twelve nations, a total of 305 million, now pay with one common currency. On January 24^th, 2002, the next important step followed. The Pope personally invited the representatives of the twelve main religions on earth to participate in a peace procession in the Italian city of Assisi. The declarations followed, that in the past religions were guilty of waging wars, but now all world religions must unite in peace against terror and demand worldwide justice. Now the world must speak, with one voice. The Pope is the only man on earth with worldwide authority. The highest authority on earth is being united with political and religious might and will achieve the so-called peace the world is longing for. Those who know their Bibles are attentive and take notice once again, for it is written that at the moment when peace is being proclaimed the destruction will come upon humanity suddenly and without extra warning. This time is now very near.

The judgement angels, according to Rev. 9, from verse 13, are held back for the day and the hour at the river Euphrates in the land of Saddam Hussein, but at the predicted big confrontation – the climax of the »holy war« – the third part of mankind will loose their lives. US governments have bombed Iraq, irritated and angered Saddam Hussein for years. Now they continue to do so in Afghanistan and other Islamic countries. These actions are looked upon by the Arabic world as being directed against the Islam itself. Everything leads to the final goal, so the prophetic scripture about the holy war might soon be fulfilled: »Proclaim this among the nations, Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, lei all the men of war draw near; let them come up…« (Joel 3:9) As other scriptures also point out, the final war will be mainly against Israel, which is becoming more and more the focal point in that region, but there will also be a military strike against the United States, not against Europe. The European Union is keeping its distance from the aggressive military policy of the USA and taking over the lead in the peace process in the Middle East.

It is clear for those who can see: not only the great commission in general has to find its fulfilment now, but also what our LORD commanded for the end-time. »And this gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.« (Mt. 24:14) This is happening in our time, before the end will come. All peoples, nations and tongues, also those belonging to the Islam and to any other religions have the right to hear the divine message of salvation. Only then can they make the right decision. The ushering in of the final phase of the endtime has begun on all levels.
