Just before the crucifixion of our Lord, His disciples asked Jesus for a sign that believers might see which would herald His return to planet Earth.
Matthew 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
Like the signs Christ described for His return by which we might bolster our faith as the dark events of the Tribulation unfold, there are signs which herald the coming of the dark forces of the Son of Perdition, by which we might know to whom he and his minions belong.
Amos 5:26
But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
Acts 7:43
Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
The following photo's show various influential individuals, flashing this sign in public. To the uninitiated, this might seem to be an unconscious, harmless behavior which has no significance. To those who understand what is being displayed however, it is very significant indeed.
This sign was no stranger to Atheist zealot John Lennon in 1968 when he posed with his mates for this promotional photo for the "Yellow Submarine" project.
Lennon is also well known for his 1971 song "Imagine", which has the famous lyrics
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
The song is a favorite of One Worlders, Socialists, and Anarchists to this day.
Of course, many observers believe that we are reading too much into this sign. After all, Amy Grant (pictured to the right), widely touted as a CHRISTIAN recording artist, is seen here flashing the same sign as Atheist John Lennon.
I imagine that if she were asked about this, Amy would without doubt claim that it was an innocent sign which means nothing.
Silly me.
I am certain that cartoon losers Beavis and Butthead, who enjoy the Satanic musical talents of bands such as AC/DC and Metallica, would agree with Amy, that there is nothing sinister about this sign.
Jump In The Fire
Down in the depths of my fiery home
The summons bell will chime
Tempting you and all the earth
to join our sinful kind
Former front man for the Metal Band Black Sabbath, Ronnie James Dio, (pictured below) was asked on rock video network VH1about using the sign, as he is credited with its becoming popular among heavy metal (and now most hard rock) fans.
Dio denied that it was Satanic in any way, and said his grandmother "from the old country" taught him the sign, calling it the sign of "Molech".
According to Dio the sign is for "protection and good fortune" unless it is turned and pointed at someone, "then it's a hex, and you spit."
Surely no one could accuse Anton LeVay (Pictured below), of glorifying the Devil could they? He was of course the High Priest and founder of the Church of Satan.
It's probably a mere coincidence that he is seen in the photo below, making the same sign with his left hand while it rests on a copy of the Satanists Bible.
Despite such obvious clues as to the spiritual origin and meaning of this sign, few people want to see it for what it is.
We see the same sign being used in open Devil worship. Despite an overwhelmingly obvious mountain of irrefutable evidence, many dismiss the notion that this sign is anything other than an innocent gesture, struck unconsciously by a large number of well known, influential people.
Indeed, even young children are being seduced into accepting this manual pose, by such "Super-heroes" as Marvel comic book figure "Spiderman," who has a godlike mission to rid society of villains using super-human (godlike) powers obtained through the use of science.
And this sign of Molech has been adopted by the young generation as their sign. The unthinking, unknowing and uncaring youth of today, have little concern as to the consequences of decisions of the spirit, and most are cavalier in their attitudes toward any belief in God.
Most young people also show ambivalence toward the Devil himself.
It is the influence of music and popular culture which have brought this present state of malaise about, and the influence of these young people can only grow exponentially, as our culture progresses.
We also see actor Kevin Spacey making the same sign.
One might expect to see a certain amount of Satanic influence in our popular culture today but could there be such a connection between our political leaders and the Prince of darkness? For the answer to this question, proceed to the next installment of this series.

The Antichrist is described in Revelation 17. He is number 8 but also one of the seven-George Walker Bush. He will return to power when Iran ambush US in not many months.
When 911 occured there lived 5 president in US.George Walker Bush was in office. One had still to come- Obama. He will stay a short while,before the beast returns.
“The beast(Antichrist) that you saw , was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast (Antichrist) that was, and is not, and yet is.
9: And here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth
10: And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he comes, he must continue a short space.
11: And the beast (Antichrist) that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goes into perdition.
12: And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.(Antichrist)
13: These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.(Antichrist)" Revelation 17
I think George Walker Bush will fulfil this prophecy.
This words were written while George Bush was still in office:
“We have had a period in recent history, from 2001 to 2004, when there were six living presidents, five of whom had fallen from office, and the sixth was then - and still IS now - our acting president, President George W. Bush. If he is the one that is, then we are talking up-to-the-minute current events here, and the person who is elected president in 2008 will be number seven, the one who will preside for a little while.
In 2001 these presidents were alive: Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, George H.W. Bush, and Bill Clinton
Who will take the office of president when something happens to number 7? None other than the one Revelation identifies as the Beast, himself. (GEORGE WALKER BUSH )
Clue, Part Three: "The beast, who once was (president),
and now is not, is an EIGHTH KING - GEORGE WALKER BUSH
(he resumes the office of president once again!).
He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction." Rev. 17:11 ”
