<TITLE>02. Par 11-16</TITLE>L-11 Now, let us turn now to the Book of the Revelation. And we're tonight on the church age of--the fourth church age, Thyatira, great church age known as the dark age. This church age started in at 606 and ended at 1520. I... Was all that I could do, picking out. Many scholars take--take Saint Patrick to be the star or the... each...
Seven stars was the seven angels of the seven church ages. We know tomorrow night, beyond a doubt, Luther; and then Wesley. We don't know who this Laodicean church star will be. It's... We're in the age now, been since 1906 at the beginning of Pentecost. But there will be an angel rise that'll smother out all the dogmas, take the church ready to go home. Now, some master of--of--in Spirit, that'll rise with signs and wonders. Now, I pray that God will help us to know this.

L-13 In picking this out, looking through, Saint Patrick was a great guy. And getting some of the old ancient manuscripts, Saint Patrick was not a Catholic. He protested the Catholic church. And during the time of the Reformation, that dogma that they had was dug up, and proved that Saint Patrick protested the Catholic church. That... Saint Patrick was more like an organization man; he had his own school. He first... When he was kidnaped on the banks of the sea, him, and his two little sisters that he never heard of no more. They were taken off, probably to Rome and sold for slaves. He was taken also and sold as a slave and was given a job of herding pigs.

L-14 He trained dogs to take--take care of his pigs, and so forth; and they would come at different grunts and things that he'd give the dogs. And that finally was a way of escape in the bottom of a boat, when the dogs covered him up until he got out into the sea. Later come to his own lovely place, Ireland, and found his mother and father still living... And Saint Patrick was a--a nephew of the great Saint Martin. Which, was one of the greatest as we've ever had in the line of men since Jesus Christ, was Saint Martin.
His churches was all filled with the Holy Ghost; they all spoke in tongues, had signs, and wonders, and miracles, just all kinds of miracles taking place. He kept the Pentecostal faith in the midst of that church age that was wedding to Catholicism; paganism and the Nicolaitane wedding together, making an organization, and making the--the Nicolaitanes... And we call them "Nico," means "to conquer, conquer or overthrow the laity," and take the Holy Spirit away from the congregation, and just the priest is holy, just the man. See? And then they live anyway they want to, I guess, and just as long as they confess it to the priest. Then they...

L-16 Found last night, that--that they set them up, that Constantine set up the first bishop, and put it--give this buildings to them, as we give you the dates and everything that you've got down. And then they had the great solstice feast there, which was the 21st day of December, the shortest day in the year, and brought in then this heresy, being, that He was the sun day (See?) the--the day of the sun's birthday, they brought the birth of Jesus Christ from April up to December the 25th.
December 25th, through that five days was when the Romans had their big celebrations, the circus, and so forth, and that's when they had this great pagan feast. And they put this man as a god himself up there and dressed him up and everything. And they had their god right with them. And the--that's when the post-millennium people come into existence, right there, 'cause they thought the church was in the millennium right there (See?), 'cause they was rich, had need of nothing, state and church all together. "Millennium is on," is still a Catholic teaching till this day. See? Now, the Millennium on, well, we know that that's wrong. The millennium: the second coming of Christ brings the millennium. That's right.
The earth is groaning, crying for that day of sweet release,
When our Lord shall come back to earth again.
