by Antichrist. He simply supports, encourages, and gives power to those 

false and traitorous Christians who invented and promote the abomination. 

Antichrist uses his power to help them set up the abomination in place of the 

true Holy Eucharist, and to replace the true Holy Mass with false worship. 

Now the abomination is greatly increased, and the Holy Eucharist and the 

Holy Mass are taken away, and the Crucifixion of the Church begins. 

    During those 3  years, churches will be destroyed or given over to evil 

doings. The Holy Eucharist will be taken away from most places on earth. 

There will be hardly any Masses said on the face of the earth. During these 

few years, the persecution of Christians shall become worse than ever before 

in the whole history of the earth. Yet, in the midst of all this suffering and 

loss, many Christians remain faithful to God. Their suffering and 

martyrdom bears fruit in bringing many to an understanding of Jesus Christ, 

the one true Savior of all. 

Conversions in the Midst of Persecution 

      `And when they have fallen, they will be supported with a little help, but 

many will apply to them deceitfully. And some of the learned will be ruined, 

that they may be kindled and chosen and purified, up to the predetermined 

time, because there will be still another time.'   (Dan 11:34 35). 

    The Church must suffer during this time. God will provide some help, but 

He will not take away the suffering until all is accomplished. Beware of 

wolves in sheep's clothing during this time. Some deceitful persons will 

apply to join the true disciples of Christ. The learned are very imperfect and 

only some of these are able to suffer in humility and faithfulness, and be 

perfected by the sacrifice of their lives. 

    Some of the wise are martyred to obtain the conversion of sinners, even to 

obtain the conversion of some of these insincere and deceitful persons. 

Though it may seem, in those years, that there is a clear division between 

good and evil people, yet the prayers and sufferings of the just will cause 

many who have done great evil to repent and be saved. 

    The predetermined time is the end of the Antichrist s reign, and the  still 

another time  occurs after a space of time for repentance and after series of 

punishments for the wicked, when Christ Returns and establishes His 

kingdom on earth. The still another time is the time of the Millennium of 

peace and holiness. 

The End of the Antichrist's Reign 

     I watched, and behold, that horn made war against the holy ones and 

prevailed over them, until the Ancient of days came and gave judgment to
