Christians Must Heed

               the same perverse ideologies. To put it another way, Christians must
               act together with Muslims against their common enemy, the antichrist.


                   Armageddon has long since begun and is
                   still raging


                   As explained above, the Armageddon that is said to take place
               in the future has in fact long since started and is still continuing. Ar-
               mageddon has begun with the Iraq War that took place in recent
               years and is still continuing. The portents in both Islamic and Christ-
               ian sources completely confirm this. Those forces that support the an-
               tichrist that say, "There will be a great and bloody war" are in fact well
               aware of this, but they deliberately conceal it.
                   Iraq was invaded by troops from the USA, Great Britain, Aus-
               tralia, Spain, Denmark and Poland in 2003. During the invasion many
               people, military and civilian, Muslims, Christians and members of
               other faiths, were martyred or killed.
                   The invasion of Iraq in the End Times is described as follows in
               the Gospel:

                   The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her [Baby-
                   lon*] because no one buys their cargoes anymore—cargoes of gold,
                   silver, precious stones and pearls; fine linen, purple, silk and scarlet cloth;
                   every sort of citron wood, and articles of every kind made of ivory, costly
                   wood, bronze, iron and marble; cargoes of cinnamon and spice, of incense,
                   myrrh and frankincense, of ... olive oil, of fine flour and wheat; cattle and
                   sheep; horses and carriages... They will say, "The fruit you longed for is
                   gone from you. All your luxury and splendor have vanished..." The mer-
                   chants who sold these things and gained their wealth from her will stand
                   far off, terrified at her torment. They will weep and mourn and cry out:
                   "Woe! Woe to you, great city, dressed in fine linen, purple and scarlet, and
