This Falling Away of 2 Thessalonians 2<\/a> study will focus on the fall of the Roman Empire, which led to Satan creating the Roman Catholic Church. <\/strong><\/p>\n

During the first few centuries after our Messiah founded His Church, Satan tried to destroy the Early Church by using the Roman Empire to kill 10 million Christians.<\/p>\n

The most intense persecution period was from 303-312 A.D., as Emperor Diocletian tried to wipe out Christianity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But the saints kept laying down their lives for their Messiah, and the Church just grew faster, so Satan changed his strategy and sought to destroy it from within<\/em>.<\/p>\n

He caused Emperor Constantine to see a vision in which he was told, \u201cIn this sign thou shall conquer<\/em>\u201d and it was the sign of the cross. Constantine went on to take control of the Roman Empire, and he ended the persecution of Christians in 313 A.D.<\/p>\n

The \u2018conquering<\/em>\u2019 in the sign of the cross was not just against other leaders or countries; but primarily against the followers of Christ.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Constantine supposedly became a Christian, but the fruit of his life told a different story, as he continued to worship the Sun. He feigned belief to carry out his mission of subverting the Church of Christ<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Satan was creating a new \u2018christian\u2019 religion, that of the Roman Catholic Church, which would pervert the commands of God.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Constantine was the founder of what is called \u201cchristianity<\/strong>,\u201d and that includes the Christianity of the Roman Catholic Church, the Christian Orthodox Churches and today’s Protestant Churches.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

During the 1st – 3rd centuries, the Roman Bishops were working to establish themselves in the Roman Empire, fulfilling, \u201cf<\/em>or the mystery of lawlessness is already at work<\/em>.<\/span>\u201d<\/p>\n

And now they had opportunity to influence the commands of Emperor Constantine, as he created Roman Christianity<\/em>, which would pervert the teachings of the Holy Scripture, under the guise of Christianity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Constantine combined the pagan Babylonian and Roman worship of false gods with Christian names, to create a Universal<\/em> religion, to draw the world under his power.<\/p>\n

This is why the Harlot<\/em> of Revelation 17, the Roman Church, is called Mystery Babylon<\/em>, for her religion is that of the Babylonians, under the guise of Christianity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Father hates the ways of the pagan gods, and He hates it when His people follow after the traditions of the pagan gods.<\/p>\n

Bill Cooper tells the truth about the Falling Away of 2 Thessalonians 2, when Emperor Constantine created the Roman religion of Christianity.<\/strong><\/p>\n
