Saudi Crown Prince ‘commits to interfaith tolerance’
Justin Welby, M. B. Salman al-Saud, Pope Tawadros
A reader tipped me off to the following about Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman:
Saudi Crown Prince ‘commits to interfaith tolerance’ in meeting with Anglican leader
March 11, 2018
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has met the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby and promised to promote interfaith dialogue as part of his domestic reforms, the office of the spiritual head of the Anglican Communion says.
Prince Mohammed made an official visit to London to promote Saudi Arabia as a tolerant, modernizing economy …
Prince Mohammed, who is pledging to modernize his country with reforms, made a symbolic visit to Welby, the head of the Church of England at Lambeth Palace in central London.
“The Crown Prince made a strong commitment to promote the flourishing of those of different faith traditions, and to interfaith dialogue within the Kingdom and beyond,” a statement from Lambeth Palace said.
“The archbishop shared his concern about limits placed on Christian worship in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and highlighted the importance for leaders of all faiths to support freedom of religion or belief, drawing on the experience of the UK.” …
On Monday, the Crown Prince met with Pope Tawadros II of Alexandria of the Coptic Orthodox Church and discussed “the brotherly relations between the kingdom and Egypt,” the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
The Saudi ministry said, “They stressed the importance of the role of different religions and cultures in promoting tolerance, renouncing violence, extremism and terrorism and achieving security and peace for the peoples of the region and world.
“The Crown Prince paid tribute to the role of the Copts in stabilizing Egypt and standing with the issues of the Arab and Islamic nation.”
Speaking to reporters after that meeting, Pope Tawadros said that “The Prince spoke a lot about his love for Christians”. He revealed that the Crown Prince had invited Tawadros and all Copts to visit Saudi Arabia, said the Anglican news service. https://www.ecumenicalnews.com/article/saudi-crown-prince-commits-to-interfaith-tolerance-in-meeting-with-anglican-leader/60509.htm
So, we see an Arab leader meeting with the head of the Anglicans and the head of the Egyptian Copts, and claiming he likes Christianity and his nation will be more tolerant .
Long time readers of this COGwriter Church of God News page are aware that I have written for years that some type of temporary deal will be struck between an Arab leader with ties to Islam. For example, I wrote the following that was published in 2009:
People often believe what they see through their own eyes. And different signs and wonders may affect various people. For example, while many of those in Islam are apparently going to be misled for a shorter time than almost any one else (as they are to be the first major power to turn on the Beast per Daniel 11:40-43), they too will, at least slightly, accept some agreement with the ecumenical movement (for a very short while). …
Asians and some Muslims accept the ecumenical religion. Some will consider this as a time of peace. Heretics and opponents are rendered inconsequential. Revelation 13:3–8 Jeremiah 6:14–15a …
As Islam is opposed to icons, and especially any type of cross as a symbol (the Crusaders invaded them centuries ago), Muslims will strongly question where all of this is leading. (Thiel B. 2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect. Nazarene Books, 2009)
But as I also wrote, in 2009 and 2012, this will only be temporary:
Based upon sacred scripture (Daniel 11:40), the religious fervor that is often present in the Islamic world, and the pagan connection to female apparitions, I suspect that any close “semi-ecumenical” alliance with the majority of the Muslims will be very short-lived. The Bible tells of a time when the final “King of the South” (a Caliphate-type leader of a likely Islamic confederation, who some may consider to be the Imam Mahdi617) will make a deal with the final European “King of the North” (Daniel 11:27), but later attack the King of the North (Daniel 11:40). Some countries, like Turkey (ancient Edom) will apparently end up supporting the Europeans (Daniel 11:25-26, 41). A great Islamic leader (the Mahdi) will push at the land of the crusaders. Daniel 11:40 (Thiel B. Fatima Shock! What the Vatican Does Not Want You to Know About Fatima, Dogmas of Mary, and Future Apparitions. Nazarene Books, 2012)
The distrust of the proclamations by the “crusaders,” combined with the prevalence of crosses being displayed, may be part of what triggers the prophesied attack from the Islamic King of the South. … Increasing displays of crosses, combined with people following wonders (such as perhaps including apparitions claiming to be Mary), will get many in the Arab lands to remember the crusades. Enough will hold to some version of Islam that they will fear an attack must be made or Islam will be defeated. (Thiel B. 2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect. Nazarene Books, 2009)
The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia is making interfaith moves with the ecumenists.
Most of the media do not understand that or where it will lead.
But ultimately, it will lead to the destruction of many Islamic nations–Saudi Arabia will be affected:
40 At the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through. 41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon. 42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. (Daniel 11:40-42, NKJV).
43 and he hath ruled over treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and Lubim and Cushim are at his steps. (Daniel 11:43, Young’s literal translation)
1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, prophesy and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says:
“‘Wail and say, “Alas for that day!” 3 For the day is near, the day of the LORD is near- a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations. 4 A sword will come against Egypt, and anguish will come upon Cush. When the slain fall in Egypt, her wealth will be carried away and her foundations torn down.
5 Cush and Put, Lydia and all Arabia, Libya and the people of the covenant land will fall by the sword along with Egypt.
6 “‘This is what the LORD says:
“‘The allies of Egypt will fall and her proud strength will fail. From Migdol to Aswan they will fall by the sword within her, declares the Sovereign LORD. 7 “‘They will be desolate among desolate lands, and their cities will lie among ruined cities. 8 Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I set fire to Egypt and all her helpers are crushed.
9 “‘On that day messengers will go out from me in ships to frighten Cush out of her complacency. Anguish will take hold of them on the day of Egypt’s doom, for it is sure to come (Ezekiel 30:1-9, NIV).
As I have written for years, the situation in the Middle East and North Africa must change for various biblical prophecies to be fulfilled.
The comments and actions from Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince confirm that it is possible, and that changes can occur quickly.
Properly understood biblical prophecies are coming to pass.
