Welcome to Revelation Unraveled, I'm your host, William Tapley,
also known as the Third Eagle of the Apocalypse and
the Co-Prophet of the End times. There's some very interesting news
out of the Vatican today and that is that
our retired pope, Pope Benedict, has told one of his visitors
that God told him to resign.
And one of my subscribers sent me the following
amazing article and I want to read excerpts from this for you
so you can decide for yourself if Benedict has changed his mind or if this is
actually what happened. And here's what this article says:
"Former Pope Benedict has claimed that his resignation in February was prompted by
God who told him to do it during a 'mystical experience'.(quote
unquote) Breaking his silence
for the first time since he became the first Pope to step down in 600 years,
the 86-year-old reportedly said,
'God told me to,' when asked
what had pushed him to retire. Benedict denied
he had been visited by an apparition or had heard God's voice
but said he had undergone a mystical
experience during which God had inspired in him
an absolute desire to dedicate his life to prayer
rather than push on as Pope."
And now, here's what the Vatican has to say: "A senior Vatican source
said 'the report was reliable. The report seems credible;
it accurately explains the spiritual process that brought
Benedict to resign,' he said." Now this statement is quite a bit different
than the reasons former Pope Benedict had given for his retirement
and as you know, I have suggested it was the forces of the Antichrist
that forced him to resign. And let me continue:
"Benedict's reported remarks contrast
with the explanation he gave to Cardinals when he announced his
resignation on 11 February.
'My strengths, due to an advanced
age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the Petrine
ministry,' he said then. At the time,
a German journalist who had recently met
Benedict, reported 'he was going deaf,
appeared to be blind in one eye, and was emaciated
and exhausted looking.' Speculation also grew
that he was depressed after his personal butler,
Paolo Gabriele, was caught leaking
his personal correspondence. Italian press reports
have recently claimed he was frustrated
by a network of influence built up at the Vatican by a
pro-gay lobby of prelates." Personally,
I believe the Pope is being very gracious and accommodating
when he says that God told him to resign.
Can you imagine the headlines he would make if he said the
Antichrist forced him to resign? But,
don't forget, on the day Pope Benedict resigned,
God struck the Vatican with lightning at exactly
5:55. That was not
an accident. Several videos ago,
I suggested that Pope Francis is
a true Pope, and in fact, Petrus Romanus,
the last Pope, the one who will feed his sheep
during the Great Tribulation. And that was because the
mysterious priest who anointed the victim, his name in fiction, anyway,
is Francis, and I was so shocked at what
I was understanding about that accident that I asked the Lord for
verification. Now, I hardly ever do this.
I think maybe I have done it for three of my videos
and the first one I did it for was the "Amazing
Bible Prophecies about President Obama".
You can check that one out if you would like to. In any event,
our Lord approved that video and
he approved this recent video that Pope Francis is a good Pope,
and I have told you before how I do this.
I ask the Holy Spirit for guidance
and I open the Bible at random and I put my finger in
under a word or phrase, and whatever word or phrase I
take as a response from God. And the word he gave me
about Pope Francis is "appointed"
and again, I was very much surprised but that gave me confidence to go ahead and
post that video,
however, there is a certain amount of questions about
what God meant when he said that he "appointed
Pope Francis". In Daniel 4,
God reveals that he will appoint
the Antichrist over humanity. His exact words are:
"I will appoint over them the basest
of men." And therefore,
I am not definitely saying that Pope Francis is a true Pope.
He could still turn out to be the False Prophet.
In any case, I believe that we as laymen, our duty
is to pray for both Pope Emeritus Benedict
and Pope Francis. And as I have been offering lately,
I am offering a free bumper sticker. If you would like to promote by YouTube
