Pope Enthroned Between Cherubim,
Showing himself that he is God.


 
I ask you, who but the Antichrist would dare enthrone himself between two golden Cherubim, as if he were seated on the mercy seat of the ark, in the place of the glory of God, showing himself that he is God?

Isa 37:16 O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth.

2 Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2 Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.
