The beast of the Apocalypse
One will need the number of the Beast to
buy and sell [and one will be eternally damned for taking it]
by Gilberte Côté Mercier
The
beast of the Apocalypse is already set up in Brussels, Belgium: It is a
gigantic computer that makes its own programs. "By using three entries
of six digits each, each citizen of the whole world will be given a
distinct credit card number." Three entries of six digits each: 666. Saint John's Apocalypse speaks of two
Beast of the sea and the Beast of the earth, that will make up the
"Antichrist" couple at the end of times. The commentators say that the
Beast comming from the sea is the political power, Satan's fearsome
ally. And the Beast coming from the earth is the power of money. The
Beast of the earth, the financial power, "shall make all, both little and great,
rich and poor, freemen and slaves, to receive a mark on their right
hands, or on their foreheads, and that none might buy or sell, unless he
carried this mark, which was the beast's name, or the number that
stands for his name. Here is wisdom. He that has understanding, let him
count the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man: and the
number of him is six hundred and sixty-six." Well! The number 666 is no longer a
mystery. We know that it refers to the gigantic computer that will be
the great controller of all the men of the earth for their purchases and
sales. Following is a text from Moody Magazine,
that reveals to us where the International Financiers have led the
peoples so far, and in what slavery they propose to chain them.
From
moody Magazine
Dr. Hanrick Eldeman, Chief Analyst of the
Common Market Confederacy in Brussels, has revealed that a computerized
restoration plan is already under way to straighten out world chaos. A
crisis meeting in early 1974 brought together Common Market leaders,
advisers and scientists at which time Dr. Eldeman unveiled "the Beast". The Beast is a gigantic three story computer
located in the administrative building of the headquarters of the
Common Market. That monster is a self-programming computer
that has more than one hundred sources distributing entries. Experts in
programming have perfected a plan that will handle by computer all of
the world's trade. This master plan would imply a system of
digital enumeration of each human being of the earth. Thus the computer
would give each inhabitant of the world a number to be used for each
purchase or sale, removing the problem of present credit cards. This
number would be invisibly tatooed by laser, either on the forehead or on
the back of the hand. This would establish a walking credit card
system. And the number could be seen only through infrared scanners,
installed in special verification counters or in business places.
666
Dr.Eldeman pointed out that by using three
entries of six digits each, every inhabitant of the world would be given
a distinct credit card number.
World Money
Other officials of the Common Market believe
that present chaos and disorder, due to a mysterious cause, show the
need of a world money, of an international print that would possibly put
an end to paper money and coins. In their place, credit notes would be
exchanged by the means of a world bank's clearing house. No member could buy or sell without first
being given such a numbered imprint. The directors of the Common Market are now
convinced that world order demands, on the allegiance of peace and
politics, a new world system of trade and numbering. A single individual would have, within
reach, the number of any hinabitan instrument of peace or a weapon of
dictatorship. When one of the leading heads of the Common
Market was asked what would happen if someone objected to the system and
refused to cooperate, he answered rather bluntly: "We would be obliged
to have recourse to force to bring him to conform to the new
requirements." Henry Spaak, who was the founder of the
European Common Market, and General Secretary of NATO, said, in one of
his speeches: "We don't want another committee, we already
have enough of them. What we want is a man of such stature that he be
capable to gain the allegiance of peace and politics to pull us out of
the economic chaos into which we are sinking. Send us this man, and, be
he god or demon, we will welcome him."
The Financiers: supreme masters
Today, through their economic control, the
Financiers prepare an absolute world political control. They will rule universally and totally,
raised at the top of both civil powers united: politics and economics. Europe's Common Market seems to be the first
step towards the world political government. And the electronic
computer will be that "man of such stature" that he may command, watch,
register, check, censor, punish all the men of all the nations, "each
human being of the earth". This computer is really much more than a man,
it is a heartless superman, with diabolic intelligence. And the International Financiers, who know
well that they themselves control the money of the whole world, have the
nerve to talk about the "mysterious cause of actual chaos and
disorder". They make believe that they are looking for a means to pull
the peoples from the "economic chaos into which they are sinking," when
it is they, the bankers, who are the authors of the chaos, by the
control of money and by their plays with the currencies, a play that
makes countries tremble. The Canadian dollar goes down. The American
dollar too, in respect to the Asian and European currencies. But the
Canadian dollar is even lower than the American dollar. The Bank of
Canada comes to the rescue of the Canadian dollar. But that is not
enough, etc., etc. All of that is International Bankers' games,
games of speculating financiers, games of swindlers. And worst yet,
they are games of controllers of human lives, games of dictators, of
tyrants of the peoples. The swindling financiers are liars. They
have for a long time hidden the mystery of their scheme. And they would
want us to continue to swallow up their lies. Blessed are the Social
Crediters who see clearly through all of these diabolic manipulations,
leading the whole world to a slavery as was never seen in history. And the true Social Crediters know,
furthermore, that if they place their trust in the Eternal Father, this
all powerful God will free the world from the snares of Satan. Trust
in God and in the Rosary of the Immaculate. The light of Social
Credit opens for us the door of that trust. And the apostolate of the
"Michael" Journal gives us the strength to endure everything in the
meantime, since we have hope.
Trust in
God and in the Rosary of the Immaculate. Sounds good
but any connection with the Vatican is immersed totally with the
tentacles of the world banking consortium as well as total Apostasy from
God!

ECB limits bond buying, eurozone looks to banks
BRUSSELS

purchases at 20 billion euros and euro zone officials hope its new
bumper liquidity provision will allow banks to buy more government debt
and ease crisis-hit states’ borrowing costs, ECB sources said on Friday.

The bank has bought no more than 22 billion euros

in August. ECB sources said it would keep purchases to a maximum of 20
billion euros now and is not considering bigger action in response to an
EU summit decision to create a fiscal union.
