And the beast (antichrist) was taken, and with him the false prophet doing signs before it, (by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast), and those who had worshiped his image.
The two were thrown alive into
the Lake of Fire burning with brimstone.

Can Eating Tuna Kill You?

On August 2, 2007, the End Times Intelligence Report posted the following story:

Future World Headline: "ALL Seafood Deemed Inedible"

Today, the New York Times reports on a frightening story of the alarmingly high levels of mercury being found at neighborhood restaurants and grocery stores which use canned tuna

Interestingly enough, it's not only canned and fresh tuna being endangered by the high levels of mercury but also other seafood as well. In the article, the FDA warns of the inherent dangers of consuming too much mercury-laced foods.

Daniel 7:9-14 (Amplified Bible)

I kept looking until thrones were placed [for the assessors with the Judge], and the Ancient of Days [God, the eternal Father] took His seat, Whose garment was white as snow and the hair of His head like pure wool. His throne was like the fiery flame; its wheels were burning fire.

A stream of fire came forth from before Him; a thousand thousands ministered to Him and ten thousand times ten thousand rose up and stood before Him; the Judge was seated [the court was in session] and the books were opened.

I looked then because of the sound of the great words which the horn was speaking. I watched until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and given over to be burned with fire.

And as for the rest of the beasts, their power of dominion was taken away; yet their lives were prolonged [for the duration of their lives was fixed] for a season and a time.

I saw in the night visions, and behold, on the clouds of the heavens came One like a Son of man, and He came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him.

And there was given Him [the Messiah] dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away, and His Kingdom is one which shall not be destroyed.

Amplified Bible (AMP)

Tom Cruise and Scientology Revisited!!!

We've noticed a spike in our readers' interest in the recent story we ran about Understanding Tom Cruise and Scientology. The staff of the End Times Intelligence Report now presents you with three resources by Dr. Walter Martin and Ravi Zacharias to help you understand how Scientology, this deeply flawed and fringed religion of the late L. Ron Hubbard stacks up against the Christ of the Bible.

1. Dr. Walter Martin's must-have book, The Kingdom of the Cults. Dr. Martin passed away in 1989. During his day, he was the foremost authority in the field of Christian apologetics. He was known for his balanced view of Christianity and was a reputed scholar of the other religions around the world. Dr. Martin was so secure in his faith of the truths of the Bible that he publicly debated leaders of the various religions anywhere they chose.

If you want the ability to logically defend your faith in Christ, then you need a greater understanding of how biblical Christianity differs from the cults (e.g. Scientology, Mormonism, Buddhism and others), this book, updated in 2003 by Dr. Ravi Zacharias, is one of the VERY BEST resources that you will use to refute the claims of false religions.


The End Times Intelligence Report highly recommends
Dr. Walter Martin's book for your library.


2. If you would like to listen or download Dr. Martin's free presentation on "The teachings of L. Ron Hubbard (Scientology) vs. the Bible," follow the instructions below.


3. To listen to other Dr. Martin's presentations, visit "The Listening Library" on WalterMartin.org maintained by Jill Martin Rische, the late scholar's daughter.

Women:Want Freedom From Porn & Prostitution?

Ladies, do you want to break free of the vicious cycle of selling yourself for sex and exotic dancing? Satan and the world have promised you riches and fame but with it, he has given you a a life full of sorrow and pain.

Today is your day of deliverance!!! Jesus the Christ is the One Who is ready and willing to set you free!!! He said of Himself: "The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, for He has anointed Me to bring Good News to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free, and that the time of the LORD's favor has come. " (Luke 4:18-19)

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



Dr. Edwin Louis Cole once wrote, "There is a high cost for low living."

If you are a believer and still struggling to overcome pornography, God's Word tells us to confess and forsake our sins. We are also to prove faithful again to God in our hearts by producing the fruits that comes from right living. This pleases the Heavenly Father.

We also realize you need additional support to help you overcome the enemy in this area of your life. You may have other areas as well. That's fine. We serve a wonderful and awesome God Who loves us and provided a way for us to overcome sin in every area of our lives. We just need to be willing to walk according to the Spirit of God and not according to the desires of our "natural" sin.

Celebrate Recovery is 'to fellowship and celebrate God's healing power in our lives through the "8 Recovery Principles." This experience allows us to "be changed." By working and applying these Biblical principles, we begin to grow spiritually. We become free from our addictive, compulsive and dysfunctional behaviors. This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy and most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with God and others.'

The Pope: Protector of Pedophiles?

Watch the exclusive BBC video which exposes Pope Benedict XVI as the author of the Crimen Sollicitationis, a secret document in which Bishops are instructed to protect the Roman Catholic Church and priests at all costs in cases of sexual misconduct and child abuse.

The Pope (then Cardinal Ratzinger) wrote and enforced the policy for 20 years before holding the highest office in the church. Bishops hid and coddled pedophile priests all while which includes performing the Seal of Confession on its victims effectively threatening its victims with ex-communication. Vatican has imposed absolute silence to be notified first of child abuse, not authorities

When Ratzinger became Pope Benedict XVI, he did not drop this shameful policy. Instead, he revised the Crimen Sollicitationis to impose more sanctions of silence on its bishops and priests! The un-Holy See requires Bishops and Priests to report cases child abuse and rape to the Vatican first. The Vatican will determine whether or not to call the authorities. Even after all of the publicized scandals in Washington D.C., Boston and London, it is strange that the revised document neither penalizes these predators nor include measures to help its victims' report these horrific crimes to the police.

Your Daily Sign of His Return - 16 Jan 2008

'In the last days, God says, I will pour my Spirit on everyone. Your sons and daughters will speak what God has revealed. Your young men will see visions. Your old men will dream dreams.

In those days I will pour my Spirit on my servants, on both men and women. They will speak what God has revealed.

I will work miracles in the sky and give signs on the earth: blood, fire, and clouds of smoke.

The sun will become dark, and the moon will become as red as blood before the terrifying day of the Lord comes.

Then whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'

(Acts 2:17-21)

Special Word from the Lord to ETIR Readers

"Listen! The LORD's arm is not too weak to save you, nor is His ear too deaf to hear you call.

It's your sins that have cut you off from God. Because of your sins, He has turned away
and will not listen anymore.

Your hands are the hands of murderers, and your fingers are filthy with sin.
Your lips are full of lies, and your mouth spews corruption.

No one cares about being fair and honest. The people's lawsuits are based on lies.
They conceive evil deeds and then give birth to sin.

They hatch deadly snakes and weave spiders' webs. Whoever falls into their webs will die,
and there's danger even in getting near them.

Their webs can't be made into clothing, and nothing they do is productive. All their activity is filled with sin, and violence is their trademark.

Their feet run to do evil, and they rush to commit murder. They think only about sinning. Misery and destruction always follow them.

They don't know where to find peace or what it means to be just and good. They have mapped out crooked roads, and no one who follows them knows a moment's peace.

So there is no justice among us, and we know nothing about right living. We look for light but find only darkness. We look for bright skies but walk in gloom.

We grope like the blind along a wall, feeling our way like people without eyes. Even at brightest noontime, we stumble as though it were dark. Among the living, we are like the dead.

We growl like hungry bears; we moan like mournful doves. We look for justice, but it never comes. We look for rescue, but it is far away from us.

For our sins are piled up before God and testify against us. Yes, we know what sinners we are.
We know we have rebelled and have denied the LORD. We have turned our backs on our God.

We know how unfair and oppressive we have been, carefully planning our deceitful lies.

Our courts oppose the righteous, and justice is nowhere to be found.
Truth stumbles in the streets, and honesty has been outlawed.

Yes, truth is gone, and anyone who renounces evil is attacked.
The LORD looked and was displeased to find there was no justice.

He was amazed to see that no one intervened to help the oppressed. So He Himself stepped in to save them with His strong arm, and His justice sustained Him.

He put on righteousness as His body armor and placed the helmet of salvation on His head. He clothed Himself with a robe of vengeance and wrapped Himself in a cloak of divine passion.

He will repay His enemies for their evil deeds. His fury will fall on His foes.
He will pay them back even to the ends of the earth.

In the west, people will respect the name of the LORD; in the east, they will glorify Him. For He will come like a raging flood tide driven by the breath of the LORD. "
(Isaiah 59:1-19)

ETIR Reader: We thank you for your continued support for this web site. The purpose of this site is inform you that Jesus is coming soon. The news articles that we highlight on this site is to give you more confirmation that all of the prophecies of the Bible concerning the End of this Age will be fulfilled. God will surely pour out fierce judgments upon the coming kingdom of the antichrist and all those who will take his mark of loyalty.

There is a way of flee the coming Wrath of God through Jesus Christ. He said, "I am the Way, the Truth and Life. No one comes to God the Father but by Me." (John 14:6)

Jesus also said "For God loved the world so much that He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent His Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through Him. There is no judgment against anyone who believes in Him. But anyone who does not believe in Him has already been judged for not believing in God's one and only Son. And the judgment is based on this fact: God's light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed. But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants. " (John 3:16-21)

What must you do to be saved? I am glad that you asked.
Peter, the disciple of Jesus, tells us: "Each one of you must turn away from your sins and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, so that your sins will be forgiven; and you will receive God's gift, the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:38, NLT)

Only then, will you be ready for the Rapture and escape the coming judgment of God upon the whole earth.

In closing, we leave with you the words of Paul:
"And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with Him the believers who have died.

We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet Him ahead of those who have died.

For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever."

Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord,
and that He may send the Christ,
who has been appointed for you—Jesus.

He must remain in heaven until the time comes for God to restore everything, as He promised long ago through His Holy Prophets.

For Moses said, 'The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people;
you must listen to everything he tells you.

Anyone who does not listen to Him
will be completely cut off from among His people.'

Worldwide Exclusive!!! The Coming EU Civil War!!!

The End Times Intelligence Report continues to scour the Internet for new insights into the grander schemes of the European Union and what we have learned today is scary.

As we reported in December 2007, Britain PM Gordon Brown handed over the sovereignty of Britain to the European Union when he supposedly signed the "Revised EU Treaty" (see article). What we have learned from the New Battle for Britain Group since that time is that the "Revised EU Treaty" was nothing of the sort. The EU Constitution with all of its horrific laws will stand as it was originally written.

The Queen of England and current Prime Minister are signing subsequent documents at an alarming pace to allow the EU to completely take control of Britain and England.

Here are just some of the New Battle for Britain Group startling findings:

  1. Britain and England to be abolished in the summer of 2008.
  2. The European Union is really the "European Soviet Union."
  3. Under the EU's Civil Contingencies Act of 2004, the Next Hitler could be swept into power without a single vote cast.
  4. All member state flags found by their respective military branches will be replaced by the on EU flag. Expect major announcements soon.
  5. EU will force all member states to hand over all military personnel, WMDs
To read more of the findings from New Battle for Britain Group, visit The Truth about the EU. Meanwhile, The Brussels Journal reports that the Euronews president Philippe Cayla has proclaimed that "The History of Nations is Ending."

What the founding fathers of the European Union originally intended.
Back in 1921, the framers of the European Union believed that totalitarianism would the only form of the envisioned EU government. Nearly 87 years later, The Brussel Journal declares the new European Union to be a definitive "superstate." (Read the full article here). This EU Superstate has only just begun to bear its fangs.

The framers also believed that EU needed a lifetime ruler. Paul-Henri Charles Spaak, who became the first European Parliament President, described the EU's ideal "ruler" this way in 1957:
"We do not want another committee. We have too many already. What we want is a man of sufficient stature to hold the allegiance of all people and to lift us out of the economic morass into which we are sinking. Send us such a man, and whether he be God or devil, we will receive him"

We believe that this man will be Antichrist, the one predicted by the Holy Scriptures to be possessed by Satan himself to ruthlessly rule the nations of the world prior to Christ's return.

A Civil War within European Union? It's very possible.
The End Times Intelligence Report predicts that civil war will break out within the European Union because of member states growing unrest with Brussels police state policies. Those policies will be considered to be increasingly hostile to Muslims as the EU cracks down on "extremist" elements. Yes, civil war is coming to the European Union!!! Just as the United States was eventually solidified through war, the same will be true of Europe.

When civil war begins, the European economy will also collapse forcing the EU Commission to
activate Civil Contingencies Act of 2004 handing the government over to this evil dictator into power to crush the rebellion. And he will do so impressively. This EU President will also turnaround the EU economy which will dramatically improve world markets. That bit of success will go to his head.

At height of his success, the other nations of the world which have consolidated their countries using the European Union model (e.g. African Union and the coming North American Union) will beg this EU President to become the World's President!!! He will "humbly" accept this position.

God revealed this future world ruler and events with precision accuracy in the Ancient Scriptures through the Prophets (i.e. Daniel who lived in 606 BCE), Christ Himself and the Apostles. Daniel recorded his visions from God in his self-titled book and wrote this of the coming antichrist:

"there will come up a king full of pride and expert in dark sayings.
And his power will be great, and he will be purposing strange things. And all will go well for him and he will do his pleasure; and he will send destruction on the strong ones.
And his designs will be turned against the holy people (Israel), causing deceit to do well in his hand; in his heart he will make himself great, and send destruction on numbers who are living unconscious of their danger; and he will put himself up against the prince of princes (Michael the Archangel); but he will be broken, though not by men's hands."
(Daniel 8:23-25, Bible in Basic English (BBE), words in italic font added by author for clarity)

After conquering the world, he will turn his sights on solving the Middle East peace problem. The Pope will sign a trilateral agreement to join Christians, Muslims and Jews. The Antichrist will then fool the nation of Israel into believing that he is the Messiah foretold in the Torah and by the prophets. Next, he will sign the seven year peace treaty with Israel guaranteeing peace and security. Israel will rebuild the Temple on the spot where the Dome of the Rock is located now.

After 3.5 years, Antichrist will break the treaty himself by doing away with the ancient Jewish animal sacrifices and desecrating the Temple by placing a statue of himself in the Holy of Holies and declare himself to be 'God.' This act will start the hellish period on the earth known as the Great Tribulation. Antichrist will be more murderous than Hitler during the Holocaust by first ordering the worldwide slaughter of Jews. Then, he will kill millions of non-Jews for not taking his implantable RFID chip, his tattoo in their foreheads and worshiping him.

Jesus said that this time in human history will be so horrible that antichrist will kill nearly two thirds of the world population (roughly 2.5 Billion people) during his murderous regime. The Lord will pour out His Wrath upon the kingdom of Antichrist and all those who accept his mark of loyalty.

Will you can escape the coming wrath to come. Do you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Savior?

The Dangers of the Last Days
"You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days
there will be very difficult times.


For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful.
They will consider nothing sacred.


They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good.

They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God.

They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!

They are the kind who work their way into people's homes and win the confidence of vulnerable women who are burdened with the guilt of sin and controlled by various desires. Such women are forever following new teachings, but they are never able to understand the truth."

Freemasonry - the Religion of Antichrist?

Everything you thought you knew about Free Masonry is wrong! David Bay, director of Cutting Edge Ministries, goes to the heart of one of the oldest, most Satanic organizations in the world. This organization has two societies - the visible and invisible societies.

Questions to active Free Masons:

  1. Do you know what's above the 33rd level of Freemasonry?
  2. Are you familiar with Manly P. Hall?
  3. Is Freemasonry compatible with biblical Christianity?
Many people are members of
...without knowing that there is an organization within the organization. By their own admission, members of the "invisible" Masonic order, say that the order is Satanic at the very core. This core is actively recruiting the "advanced occultists" who will serve the coming Antichrist's purposes. Read about the differences between the Mason's "visible" and "invisible" organizations here.

If you are both a member of a local church and of one of the pagan organizations listed above, learn the truth about it and free yourself from the snare of Lucifer. Free Masonry is a religion, not just a fraternity. You are trying to serve both Christ and Freemasonry.

The End Times Intelligence Report, courtesy of Cutting Edge Ministries, brings you the full report here.

New U.S. Passports Contain Spychips!!!


For the first time, the US State Department have released the controversial specs of the Electronic Passport. All new U.S. Passports contain embedded radio-frequency identification (RFID) chips. Privacy advocates, civil rights watchdogs and major firms are concerned with the overall security of the new passports from being cloned or hacked.

If you carry the American Express Blue Card or a new Visa payWave card that looks like the image below, you are already carrying RFID spychips.

And I saw the dead, great and small, taking their places before the high seat; and the books were open, and another book was open, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged by the things which were in the books, even by their works.

And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and Hell gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged every man by his works.

Understanding Tom Cruise and Scientology


UK's Daily Mail exclusive story on Andrew Morton's tell-all book about Tom Cruise and Scientology is sending shock waves throughout the world of media and TV. Read it about it here.

With so much coverage about this story, the ETIR staff thought you should gain insight into the ultra-secretive Church of Scientology founded by L. Ron Hubbard and has become the religion of many Hollywood stars.

Don't know L. Ron Hubbard? In the 1980s, he littered the televisions with commercial about his book "Dianetics." If you seen movies such as "Signs," "Battlefield Earth" and "Men in Black 2," you have already been exposed to the teachings of Scientology.

Reportedly, Tom Cruise fell hard for the Church of Scientology with his first wife and since become the religion's "No. 2" man. Combine this with the fact that Cruise now helms movie studio United Artists (UA), he has the power to insist that all UA movies contain hints of Scientology philosophy.

Morton's book is so potentially dangerous to the actor that Cruise has threatened him and the publisher with a $20M lawsuit to stop the publishing of the book.

While waiting on this expose by Andrew Morton, we recommend that you read the following article by John Weldon of the Christian Research Institute.

SCIENTOLOGY: From Science Fiction to Space-Age Religion by John Weldon

After you've read this article, please return to the ETIR and comment. We plan to do our own feature article about the Church of Scientology in the near future.

Sexual Liberation -- a form of Political Control?

By E. Michael Jones

A new book featured in the End Times Intelligence Report bookstore (powered by Amazon.com) explores the correlation between Sexual Liberation and Social Control. Michael Jones, the author, ponders the impact that the Sexual Revolutions down through the ages have been used by the powers-that-be to incite the overthrow of governments as well as to impose strict control the masses that they ruled.

The danger of what many people call a totally "free" society is that society devolves into anarchy (Read the ETIR's article "Revisiting the story of Pinocchio"). With no one to enforce otherwise detestable behavior, many innocent lives have been destroyed. Famed French aristocrat the Marquis de Sade advocated a sexual revolution during the political chaos. He believed that "the freest of people are they who are most friendly to murder." History has proven time again that the sexual deviances and murderous repressions continue to engulf the world.

During the coming world tribulation, the future antichrist will seduce and exploit the weaknesses of mankind by letting society fulfill all of its sensual and murderous desires in exchange for their sworn allegiance and worship of him as their "god." And the masses will follow blindly. Like Hitler's willing executioners, people from every walk of life will betray and murder each other to serve their selfish ends. Only when Christ returns to overthrow antichrist and his government, will they realize that they are eternally doomed.

A testimony is giving praise to God for something miraculous that He has done. When we share our testimony, we gain victory over the devil.

Revelation 12:11 (NLT)

Week in Review, January 5, 2008

2007 was a remarkable year. I firmly believe that 2008 will be equally exciting. The fact that we are seeing and experiencing these incredible but sometimes disturbing events occur should be a reminder that the God who loves mankind is in control.

We will continue cover these events as they happen providing analysis and insights from world news and the God's Holy Word, the Bible.

European Union

  • The European Union handed over the reins of the EU President to Dimitrij Rupel, a leader from an ex-Communist country of Slovenia. Slovenia declared independence in 1991 and has only been a EU member state since 2004. One wonders what policies will the first ex-Communist President will introduce now that he is in power.

Middle East
  • Publicly, Iran continues down the path of peaceful nuclear capability. However, behind the scenes, Iran, Russia and China are brokering deals to nuclear weapons technology. We believe that Tehran will announce that it has acquired full nuclear capability by conducting underground tests.

Asia
  • In the aftermath of Bhutto's death, the world continues to struggle with diplomatic ties to Pakistan. Riots and outcries for President Musharraf's resignation
  • China is building the world's most sophisticated surveillance system ahead of the 2008 Olympics. The Communist country is cracking down on everything which would seemingly keep it from putting on its best face to the world. This includes late night raids and arrests of liberal college students, Christian pastors and their churches. More disturbing is the fact that China has introduced "re-education" camps for dissents.

Africa
  • Conditions in Kenya continue to deteriorate into maddening violence and ethnic killings after the results of their recent presidential elections have been called into question.
  • For full coverage of Africa, visit these sites:
  1. The Economist - Africa Edition
  2. BBC Africa
  3. Reuters Africa
  4. CNN International

The Americas
  • The stakes for United States Presidential Election Season is wide open. In the Iowa caucus, Mr. Barack Obama finished first place for the Democrats while Mr. Mike Huckabee placed first among Republican voters. The New Hampshire caucus occurs next week. Follow full coverage of the bid for the White House, click here.
  • Economic conditions in the US continue to tighten as many financial analysts are speaking of a major recession.
  • The U.S. government rocked the country when the Pentagon announced plans to furlough over 100,000 civil service workers. Read the Washington Post article here.


Roman Catholic Church
  • The last news we read about the RCC is that the Vatican and leaders of Islam convened a series of closed door meetings on what is being have been working behind the scenes on a "landmark" agreement.
