How the Papacy Inherits the Rule of the Ancients

Writer's picture: Michelle HaymanMichelle Hayman

Throughout history, the Vatican and the institution of the papacy have wielded immense power over nations, economies, and religious beliefs. In the context of biblical prophecy, many have speculated on the identity of the Beast in the Book of Revelation. One particularly compelling interpretation suggests that the papacy itself fulfills this role, with its authority manifested through a series of papal bulls that have shaped the world. If this theory holds, then the mark of the Beast—the means by which no one may buy or sell without compliance—could well be these very papal decrees, which dictated the economic, spiritual, and political fate of billions.


The Book of Revelation warns of a power that will exercise control over all people, requiring them to bear its mark in order to participate in commerce and daily life. Revelation 13:16-17 states: "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." If we examine history, it becomes evident that papal bulls often functioned as instruments of control, regulating who had access to trade, resources, and even human rights.

Consider the papal bull Dum Diversas (1452), issued by Pope Nicholas V. This decree granted Portugal the authority to subjugate and enslave non-Catholics, particularly in Africa. This led to the monopolization of the transatlantic slave trade, which was one of the largest and most profitable economic systems in history. If one did not comply with the Catholic dominion set forth by the Vatican, they were deemed outside the economic system, excluded from participation, or even targeted for enslavement. The requirement of allegiance to papal authority in order to conduct trade echoes the biblical warning that without the mark, one cannot buy or sell.


The truth of Scripture stands against the darkness of spiritual slavery, revealing the deception that binds the world under false authority. As we examine 1 John, we see the stark contrast between the righteousness of Christ and the wickedness of the systems that enslave humanity.

1 John 4:20-21 says: "If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also."

The Vatican, through its historical bulls and decrees, sanctioned slavery, persecution, and conquest, proving by its actions that it does not operate under the love of God but under the spirit of dominion and oppression. The false church claims to love God, yet its history is marked by violence against those who refused to submit to its rule.


1 John 3:6 states: "Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him." The true Church of Christ is marked by those who abide in righteousness, rejecting the corrupt ways of religious institutions that twist the Word for power. The Vatican, by upholding false teachings, idol worship, and human authority over divine truth, reveals itself as an entity that does not know God, for it continues in sin without repentance.


1 John 3:8-9 warns: "He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."

The system of papal authority, with its history of oppression, economic enslavement, and deception, bears the mark of Satan’s influence. It is not of God but of the adversary, perpetuating sin under the disguise of religious piety.


1 John 5:18 declares: "We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not."

True believers separate themselves from corrupt religious systems, for they are kept by God and are not touched by the wicked one. Those who remain under the authority of the papal system, following its decrees and false doctrines, remain in the bondage of spiritual darkness.

The truth is clear—slavery, religious control, and economic domination are the works of darkness, not of Christ. The Vatican’s history is a testament to falsehood, deception, and spiritual enslavement, bearing the unmistakable mark of the Beast. True freedom is found in Christ alone, and those who abide in Him must reject the system of darkness that masquerades as light. The time has come to expose and renounce the spiritual oppression that has chained the world under the authority of man, standing firm in the truth that sets us free.


Still not convinced?


Romanus Pontifex (1455), also issued by Pope Nicholas V, reinforced the control of Catholic rulers over newly discovered lands, giving them the right to exploit resources and dictate commerce. This further cemented the Roman Catholic Church’s power over the economy and shaped the colonial systems that determined who had the right to participate in global trade. This was not merely an endorsement of conquest; it was a decree ensuring that only those under papal dominion could benefit from the world’s riches.

In 1493, Inter Caetera by Pope Alexander VI ((Rodrigo de Borja) expanded this model by dividing the world between Spain and Portugal, offering divine justification for their economic and political control. This ensured that indigenous populations who refused to convert to Catholicism would be denied not just sovereignty, but also access to the economic systems of their own lands. Again, compliance with the Vatican’s authority became the determining factor in who could buy, sell, and hold power.

The doctrine of enforced compliance extended beyond territorial conquests and economic regulations. In Cum nimis absurdum (1555), Pope Paul IV (Gian Pietro Carafa) restricted Jewish populations to segregated ghettos, stripping them of economic freedom and forbidding them from owning property. This was another clear instance where Vatican decrees dictated who could participate in society’s commerce and who was shut out, marking those who did not conform as economic outcasts.

As history progressed, papal bulls continued to shape the fate of millions, issuing commands that determined financial participation. Even in more recent history, the Vatican has wielded its influence over global economies and governments, reinforcing its control over who has access to power and wealth. If we view these decrees through the lens of Revelation, it becomes difficult to dismiss the parallels between the Beast’s economic dominion and the Vatican’s historical grip on global trade, political authority, and financial systems.


 So much for these so-called successors of the apostles practicing love for their brethren!


If the papal bull is indeed the mark of the Beast, then its function as a controlling mechanism is already deeply ingrained in world history. Those who refused to comply with Vatican edicts—whether indigenous people resisting colonization, non-Catholics in medieval Europe, or groups declared heretical—were systematically cut off from economic participation and societal privilege. The mark, then, is not necessarily a literal insignia but rather a requirement of submission to papal authority, without which one is cast out from economic life.

The implications of this perspective are profound. It challenges the dominant theological interpretations of the mark of the Beast, shifting it away from futuristic speculation and placing it squarely in the annals of history. The power to control commerce, dictate societal structures, and enforce religious submission has already been exercised for centuries. The warning in Revelation may not be about an event yet to come, but about a system that has long been in place, operating under the guise of divine authority.

As we continue to analyze the prophecies of Revelation, it becomes increasingly crucial to consider history’s role in shaping our understanding of biblical warnings. If the Beast is indeed the Vatican, and the papal bulls serve as its mark, then the world has been living under its shadow for centuries. The question then arises—how do we break free from this system, and what does true economic and spiritual liberation look like in a world where the mark has already been imprinted?


On Wall Street, where the global financial system is centered, traders are heard shouting, "Buy, buy, buy! Sell, sell, sell!"—a chaotic yet calculated system of wealth distribution. And there, sitting prominently, is the great symbol of economic power: the bull. The bull, which has stood as an idol through the ages, represents far more than mere financial strength. It is the very same symbol that represented Nimrod, Baal, Marduk, Moloch, Zeus, and Jupiter-Ammon in ancient Rome. The horned bull has been a sign of power and dominance stretching from Medo-Persia, through Greece, Rome, and Babylon. Its presence in the heart of global commerce is no coincidence—it is the mark of economic dominion and control, reinforcing a system where participation is dictated by the same ancient forces that Revelation warns against. In this, the Vatican’s role in shaping economies and issuing papal bulls that determine financial access becomes even more striking. Is it mere symbolism, or is it the very fulfillment of prophecy itself?


The theory that the bloodline of the Pharaohs extends to the papacy is one that has long intrigued researchers and historians alike. While no concrete proof exists to definitively confirm this lineage, there are compelling symbolic and historical connections that suggest a continuity of power from ancient Egypt to the Vatican. This exploration is meant to examine patterns of influence that could point to a deeper historical truth.

The Pharaohs of ancient Egypt were regarded as divine rulers, priest-kings who claimed authority both in the religious and political spheres. This same dual role can be observed in the pope, who functions as both the head of state (Vatican City) and the spiritual leader of billions. The similarities do not end there. The pope's headdress, known as the mitre, bears a striking resemblance to the crowns worn by the Pharaohs, further suggesting a potential symbolic or even ancestral link. Additionally, the papal staff frequently incorporates Egyptian motifs such as obelisks, crosses, and serpents—symbols deeply rooted in the mystery religions of antiquity.


Historically, Rome absorbed many religious customs from Egypt, incorporating sun worship, the veneration of deities, and hierarchical priesthoods into its own structures. The continuity of these practices raises the question: Did the authority of the Pharaohs truly disappear, or was it preserved and rebranded within the Vatican? If the ruling bloodlines of ancient Egypt carried through into European aristocracy, as some genealogists suggest, then the papacy could indeed be an extension of this priest-king lineage.

A particularly interesting biblical passage that may relate to this theory is found in the Second Epistle of John 1:3: "The children of thy elect sister greet thee." While traditionally interpreted in a spiritual sense, could this verse hint at a concealed royal bloodline? Some have speculated that the "elect sister" could be a reference to a hidden lineage descending from Christ Himself, carefully preserved and safeguarded throughout history. If such a bloodline existed, its connection to the highest echelons of religious and political power would explain the secrecy surrounding it.

Further supporting this theory is the fact that nearly all popes throughout history have been of noble lineage. From the powerful Medici popes of the Renaissance to various European aristocrats who ascended to the papal throne, the Vatican has maintained a strong connection to noble families. These elite bloodlines, many of which trace their ancestry back to ruling houses of Europe, reinforce the idea that the papacy has long been intertwined with aristocratic power structures. If such a pattern exists, it further suggests that the authority of the pope is not merely spiritual but also a continuation of an ancient rulership tradition.

While this theory remains speculative, it is worth considering how history, symbolism, and biblical references align in ways that challenge traditional narratives. If the Vatican is indeed the continuation of an ancient priestly rulership, it would shed new light on the forces that shape global governance and spiritual authority. Whether coincidence or concealed truth, the connections between the Pharaohs and the papacy continue to provoke discussion and investigation among those seeking a deeper understanding of history's hidden currents.


I'm repeating myself but.....


How can those of noble lineage genuinely claim to be the apostolic successors of humble fishermen? The contrast is stark—Christ’s disciples were simple men, called from their nets to follow the true King, yet those who have ruled the Church for centuries have belonged to the ranks of aristocracy, wielding wealth and power in direct opposition to the humility of the early followers of Christ.

Could this be evidence of the two distinct bloodlines referenced throughout the Bible, beginning in Genesis? The division between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent (Genesis 3:15) has been a recurring theme, representing a struggle between divine truth and deceptive rule. If Christ came as the promised Messiah from the true, chosen bloodline, then the efforts to crucify Him and erase His lineage would make sense as a calculated attempt to maintain a false priestly and royal authority.

By orchestrating the crucifixion of the Messiah and suppressing any historical evidence of Mary Magdalene, the elect sister whose children greet them (2 John 1:13), was there an intentional effort to erase a legitimate divine bloodline? Could this have been a move to consolidate power, ensuring that an illegitimate ruling class—one falsely claiming divine authority—could continue to reign unchallenged? If the truth of the real bloodline had surfaced, would it have dismantled the authority of those who built their rule on deception rather than spiritual inheritance?


History shows a deliberate effort to control religious and royal narratives, removing any evidence of a true Messianic lineage and replacing it with an elite priest-king system that holds dominion to this day. If the true bloodline of Christ had survived, it would completely undermine the legitimacy of those who claim divine right to rule, revealing them instead as the seed of the adversary, a counterfeit masquerading as holy.

Could this hidden war of bloodlines explain the corruption and deception embedded in the highest levels of religious and political power?


If the royal lineage truly extends from the Pharaohs to the Vatican, how could the world willingly submit to the same bloodline that murdered their King? The only explanation is sorcery—a grand deception so powerful that it blinds the masses to reality.

The Pharaohs of Egypt were deeply entrenched in the occult, as evidenced by their priests and mystical practices. The Bible itself warns that "the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not" (2 Corinthians 4:4), ensuring that the truth of salvation remains hidden. Revelation 18:23 explicitly states that "by thy sorceries were all nations deceived." This suggests a global enslavement through spiritual manipulation, just as Pharaoh and Caesar refused to let God's people go.

Now, imagine the entire world as ancient Israel, captive under a ruler who claims divine authority but serves another power. Just as Pharaoh enslaved the Israelites and Caesar ruled over God’s people, the world today could be under the dominion of the same royal bloodline, one that is not of God. A lineage built on deception, greed and murder, using the illusion of divine right to maintain control while keeping the people in spiritual and economic bondage.

Could this explain why history repeats itself—why oppression, empire, and tyranny seem to flow from the same source, generation after generation? If the true bloodline of God’s chosen was hidden or erased, then the world’s rulers would not be liberators but spiritual Pharaohs, ensuring that the chains of deception remain unbroken.


The Pharaohs and Their Pact with the Demonic: How They Bewitched the Masses

Throughout history, rulers have sought power beyond the physical realm, forging alliances with unseen forces to secure their dominion. The Pharaohs of Egypt, exalted as living gods, were no exception. They did not merely rule with military might or political cunning but relied heavily on occult knowledge, dark rituals, and demonic entities to maintain their grip over the masses.

The Bible itself reveals that Egypt was a land steeped in sorcery. When Moses confronted Pharaoh, it was not merely a political dispute—it was a battle between the power of God and the dark forces behind Egypt’s throne. In Exodus 7:11-12, when Moses turned his staff into a serpent, Pharaoh’s sorcerers and magicians did the same, demonstrating their access to supernatural power. These were not mere illusions but manifestations of demonic forces working through them.

Egyptian priests were known as "masters of secret arts," holding deep knowledge of astral magic, necromancy, and spirit conjuration. The hieroglyphs inscribed in the great temples speak of rituals to summon the gods, offering blood sacrifices and chanting incantations designed to invoke spirits from the underworld. Many of these so-called “gods” were nothing more than fallen entities, masquerading as deities to deceive the people.


The Egyptian priesthood acted as the bridge between demonic forces and the people, wielding astronomy, sorcery, and sacred rituals to construct a system that enslaved the mind, body, and soul of the population. At the heart of their power were the massive temple complexes, where Pharaohs and their priests performed blood sacrifices, invocations, and divination. The people, convinced that these rituals secured their survival, submitted willingly to their rulers, never realizing they were bound by deception.

Idolatry formed the foundation of this enslavement. Statues of gods such as Amun-Ra and Jupiter-Ammon, whose earthly representative was the Pontifex Maximus—a title meaning "Greatest Bridge-Builder"—were venerated as divine rulers. Osiris and Anubis, among others, were not merely symbols but vessels of dark spiritual forces. Those who worshipped them unknowingly surrendered themselves to entities that sought dominion over their souls.

Revelation warns of a system that enslaves humanity, not only in body but in soul. In Revelation 18:13, the great city—often interpreted as spiritual Babylon—is condemned for its trade in "slaves, and souls of men." This passage reveals that those in power have not only amassed wealth and dominion but have actively trafficked in human souls, reducing people to nothing more than commodities to be exploited.

This deception is further echoed in 2 Peter 2:3, which declares, "And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you." Here, Scripture exposes false teachers and corrupt rulers, who, with deceptive words, manipulate and profit from those under their control. Just as the Pharaohs used sorcery, illusions, and fear to enslave their people, so too does this spiritual Babylon operate, binding souls to a system designed to keep them blind to the truth.


I digress....


The promise of the afterlife became another tool of control. Egyptian theology dictated that eternal life could only be attained through mummification, spell recitations, and offerings to the gods. This system thrived on fear, keeping the people in perpetual servitude, ensuring their wealth and devotion were funneled into the temples. The illusion of salvation through earthly rituals chained them to a cycle of oppression.

Beyond deception, Pharaohs and their sorcerers engaged in magical warfare, using curses and hexes to strike down their enemies. They believed that words spoken in rituals carried supernatural power, turning their conflicts into spiritual battles rather than mere military engagements. Enchantment, illusion, and the invocation of dark forces were their weapons, ensuring that their rule extended beyond physical dominance into complete spiritual control.

The legacy of this occult dominion did not die with the Pharaohs but has echoed through history, evolving yet retaining its core essence. The power structures that once ruled Egypt did not fade; they merely changed form, continuing their influence over those still blinded by the very deceptions that first ensnared the ancient world.


It's no surprise that I found myself on my deathbed after being cursed by witchcraft, only to hear the voice of God calling to me, saying, "The truth will set you free." (This is available in my free book).

To which God says in Matthew 18:6

“But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.”


The Biblical Warning: A Shadow That Persists

Egypt’s use of demonic forces to rule the world did not die with the Pharaohs. The same deceptive sorcery that bewitched the ancient masses has carried on through other global power structures, adapting to new forms but maintaining the same agenda. Revelation 18:23 warns that "by thy sorceries were all nations deceived." The same occult forces that propped up Pharaoh still operate behind the world’s ruling elite today, keeping nations blind and enslaved through deception.

The Pharaohs did not rule alone—they had demonic assistance. And as history repeats itself, it is vital to recognize that those who seek ultimate power in this world often follow the same ancient blueprint of sorcery, deception, and spiritual bondage.
