The deadly head wound of the Ottoman Empire has been healed!
The diadem of Selim I
By Craig C. White
Guess what? Immediately after Turkish President Erdogan won sweeping power over Turkey in a national referendum he unveiled the diadem (or crown) of Selim I, past Sultan of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. The diadem of Selim I is a turban made of fine silk and has been kept hidden from public view. Unveiling the crown now signifies the rebirth of the Turkish ruled Ottoman Empire with Erdogan as Sultan. Whoever holds the crown also holds the scepter.
Revelation chapter 13 describes a seven headed beast that represents the seven past world empires. The last world empire (Ottoman Turk) has been wounded yet it is revived during the last days. Well my friends, the deadly head wound of the Ottoman Empire has just been healed! Yet more proof that Turkish President Erdogan is the Antichrist. This is no surprise to me as I have been telling people this from the scripture for the past six years. This is also more proof that you should listen to what I am saying!
Revelation 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
As if that weren’t enough, Revelation chapter 13 identifies another beast. In this case the beast seems to describe a world religious government with two branches that goes along with the next world empire. Most Bible teachers recognize that this is where the False Prophet will come from. Exiled Turkish Muslim Cleric Fethullah Gulen had attempted to steal the diadem of Selim I in order to return to Turkey and claim himself as the next Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. I have been saying this for years; Fethullah Gulen is the False Prophet.
Revelation 13:11-12 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. 12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Looking back to Revelation 13:1 the last world empire will have ten kings (or horns). So the final configuration of the next world empire has not arrived yet but it is getting close. I think that Daniel chapter 7 describes the European Union as it joins the new Russian Union and a coming Turkish led Islamic Union to form the next world empire. It could be that the ten kings will be set over this combined Union although Turkish President Erdogan is already talking about dividing Turkey into several states. Perhaps he is attempting to fulfill Bible prophecy inside of Turkey. Erdogan has also announced his intentions to create an Islamic Union.
Craig,
Once again, Walid has presented an excellent, evidence based case for Erdogan being the antichrist. However, he just can’t shake off his insults towards westerners, and trying to push his catholic interpretations of prophecy. I agree that most western prophecy teachers are still holding on to their ideas of a resurrected Roman Catholic Empire represented by an antichrist Pope. That is probably the number one reason why many are reluctant to embrace your commentaries. The problem is, that it is a stretch to say that the sacraments represent the temple, the daily sacrifice, and the two witnesses. None of the prophets, including John new anything about the catholic versions of communion, church councils post third century, the pope, or Mary’s alleged role in the final judgement of Christ.
I am praying that Walid will realize that “all who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved,” and that is it with no addendums, weather they be man made, Pope decreed, angelic, or supposed new revelations. Those poor persecuted Christians by the thousands, future Jews, and all gentile believers need only put their trust in Christ Jesus to be ready for the last trump, and spend eternity with God. God is not concerned with weather you trust in any churches’ creeds or doctrines of men. They are useful for teaching, but not to be trusted for salvation.

Very well said David. I agree with everything that you said. We both agree that Walid Shoebat is one of a very few Bible prophecy teachers that truly understand the direction that things are going.
That being said, a couple of weeks ago Erdogan declared war between cross and crescent, between Christianity (particularly in Europe) and Islam. The next thing that I fear is that Christians (especially in Turkey) will be persecuted by Erdogan. I think that the letters to the Churches in Turkey that appear in the first few chapters of Revelation apply especially to the Churches in Turkey today.
Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

Craig,
I have often wondered, what is the actual significance of the “Ten Days of Tribulation?” I have read everything from the ten days of judgement on Egypt to the beginning of a trial and its culmination in regards to the Hebrew calendar. Here is a thought. In Islam, the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah are considered to be according to Allah, the best days of time. During this time Allah’s slaves prepare themselves for judgement which can include great blessing or burning in hell. Perhaps the antichrist will give men 10 days to denounce Christ, worship the beast, receive his mark, or be put to death. This would fall right in line with the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah, and for believers it would be ten days of persecution while being forced to submit to the beast. Like I said, it’s just a thought. What do you think the ten days may represent?

I don’t know exactly but I suspect that the ten days represents a short span of time that the Church is persecuted just before the resurrection and Rapture.

Hello,
I agree with everything you said on the first comment, David. I almost wrote the exact same thing.
I am also surprised that people have no idea. I am an educator in an elementary school. This morning we were talking about traveling to other countries. I made the comment about how Turkey would not be safe especially with what is happening now and the recent vote on Sunday. The people had no idea what I was talking about. They had no clue about who Erdagon even is and especially about the vote. How is it that people don’t know??
What is the ten days of tribulation? What verse talks about that!? I have not heard about that.
I am so appreciative Craig. Thank you for always keeping us updated. Things are moving quickly. Do you think people will wake up???

Craig,
I see the scripture on your other comment now, sorry. Thank you for re sending it though.
I have questions after reading all of this today. Do you have any idea why Erdagon is saying it will take until 2023 to rebuild? Isn’t the number 6 significant for Satan? Just curious on that one, since 2017- 2123 would be 6 years, is there a significance? What are your thoughts now on the time of the rapture? Do you think there will be a physical rebuilding of the temple between now and then?
I am just trying to understand it all. There is lots to take in and understand. I appreciate your time and help with it all. There are not many people who will talk about it.

Erdogan says that it will take until 2023 to conquer all of the nations that were once part of the Ottoman Empire. I don’t think that we need to apply the number six to everything that the Antichrist does. 666 is the number of his name. https://hightimetoawake.com/666-2/
I am certain that the temple will be built quickly. All of the materials and plans are ready to go. The tabernacle was built in exactly one year. The temple will be built well before 2023.
