Pleasant Baptist Church Lee Swor, Pastor Bible Prophecy Mystery, Babylon The Great (Pt.2) Mystery, Babylon The Great The priests of Dagon. Dagon had PRIESTS who offered SACRIFICES (Jud 16:23) Because Dagon was the FISH god, he and his priests are depicted wearing a mitre or crown in the shape of an inverted fish head (similar to the mitre worn by ROMAN CATHOLIC bishops), which also forms the shape of a phallic symbol Because Dagon was the FERTILITY god, he and his priests are also depicted in association other FERTILITY symbols such as SEEDS, EGGS, and BASKETS See: the EPHAH (Zec 5:5-11) Mystery, Babylon The Great Dagon has EGG- shaped object in his hand Dagon is carrying a BASKET (is he on an “EASTER EGG HUNT”? Dagon, the Fish-God is called, “Nimroud” Mystery, Babylon The Great According to Sumerian experts, the BASKETS or containers are referred to as banduddu, meaning “buckets”, and were presumed to have held HOLY WATER The EGG-shaped object is referred to as mullilu, meaning “purifiers” The images on these tablets have a few other interesting things in common First, there is the strange appearance of birds that resemble STORKS In addition, Dagon and his priests are depicted approaching an object that resembles a FRUIT-bearing TREE of some sort- experts believe it is a sacred tree and represents the TREE OF LIFE This “tree of life” is said to symbolize both the divine world order and the king, who functioned as its earthly administrator- we know that the true symbolism is that it represents the ANTICHRIST and his kingdom It is no coincidence that it is similar in shape to the Kabbalistic “tree of life” (i.e.- the SEPHIROT), which is actually the TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL What might be the most interesting of all is that an “unidentifiable flying object” (UFO) (Zec 5:5-6) is often depicted hovering over this “tree of life”- and it is OCCUPIED! Mystery, Babylon The Great Mystery, Babylon The Great Mystery, Babylon The Great A “UFO” appears over a “Sephiroth-like object This UFO has THREE occupants (Zec 5:7,9) Mystery, Babylon The Great Mystery, Babylon The Great The two priests flanking the “tree of life” in the middle, with a winged object above it forms the familiar image of the two pillars and the third middle (mingled) pillar that leads to GODHOOD Mystery, Babylon The Great Mystery, Babylon The Great Mystery, Babylon The Great Note: the HUNTER (Nimrod; Diana) in the position of the crown, the wings, and the all-seeing eye- the position of GODHOOD Mystery, Babylon The Great Smote them with emerods. The Lord smote all the Dagon worshippers with EMERODS (v.6)- this pictures the first vial judgment when BOILS come upon all those who had the MARK OF THE BEAST and WORSHIPPED the image of the beast Rev 16:2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. It is interesting to note that SAMSON and SAUL, the two prominent characters connected with the appearance of DAGON, both took their own lives Why is DAG used in place of GOD in the euphemism “Dag gone it”? Mystery, Babylon The Great 1 Chr 10:10 And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon. The Philistines (those who worshipped Dagon) BEHEADED Saul just like Babylon the Great will BEHEAD believers in the Tribulation (Rev 20:4) They put his head in the TEMPLE of Dagon and put his armour in the HOUSE OF THEIR GODS, which was the HOUSE OF ASHTAROTH 1 Sam 31:10 And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth: and they fastened his body to the wall of Bethshan. The Philistines worshipped Dagon AND Ashtaroth (appears 15x in all its forms) Ashtaroth/Astarte/Ishtar/Eostre was the FERTILITY GODDESS and QUEEN OF HEAVEN (Jer 44:19), and one of her symbols was the 8- pointed star which appears on Pope Francis’ coat of arms The word EASTER only appears 1x (Acts 12:4) and it is associated with a man of God being put in PRISON for preaching the gospel Mystery, Babylon The Great 1 Chr 10:10 And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.
