Introduction

| Apollo & human lover Hyacinthus |
In the last message, "The Health System And The Anti-Christ: Are they related" I endeavored to show that the Anti-Christ, whom Revelation 9 gives the name of him, "Apollyon", is the god Apollo. I noted that in the Greek and Roman religions (we wrongly call "myths") that Apollo is the god of medicine and the favored son of Zeus. Zeus is attributed to Satan and is called "the dragon" in Revelation 13, and it says that the dragon (Satan) gives Apollo (the Anti-Christ and "son of perdition" / destruction) his power. I noted that the Greek god Apollo is the god of medicine, and thus it would seem appropriate to conclude that the Anti-Christ will have a part in the health system of the world during the Tribulation.
I cited a number of reasons for this view. The reasons have to do with the evils the health system has brought upon the world with all the Covid issues (masks, harmful jabs, lockdowns), the millions of abortions they perform, the evil of the big pharma and others.
Now I want to start connecting some dots by looking at that past article as well as two others, "As it was in the days of: Part 1 The Sexual Sins and Destruction of Sodom", and "Part 2 Noah - Sins that brought the total destruction of the earth...revived". Part 1 because Jesus prophesied that in the last days before his appearance that homosexuality, mobs, and extreme pride would be a blatant pushed lifestyle on the last society. Then Part 2, because Jesus prophesied the return of those demonic "gods" that prevailed upon the earth before it was destroyed by the flood. And, according to Revelation 9, Apollo, the god of medicine, is one of those demon gods who comes out of abyss with a horde of demons.
So, the end times, in part, will be marked by these two prophecies. So, there is a definite spiritual aspect connecting the return of the gods to the end time. But are these coming demon gods, like Apollo, connected to the homosexuality that brought destruction to Sodom and Gomorrah as well as the flood? It seems so.
The Religion of Homosexuality And Its Opposing God's Model
Is Homosexuality and all it embraces actually a religious practice, an "anti-Christ" replacement for the model God has set up in His word? I think we can say "yes". We really need to look no further that the model of Creation itself to see this. As noted in a previous article, the true model is that God created only two genders; male and female (Genesis 1:27). And that is what God made.
On the other hand, the religion of the homosexual mindset says there are more than two genders, and they endeavor to make up their own, according to their own desires. Now then, only someone who's mind has been taken over by a God opposing demonic force would say this. Thus, homosexuality is a doctrine of a religion that opposes God; an opposite, or "instead of" God - an anti-Christ religion. This anti-Christ, when he comes, will seek to replace the ordinances of God with his own, that are the doctrines of his father, Zeus, the devil, Satan. It is a true doctrine of demons that even has started to permeate what is called "Christianity". But, Paul said this would happen;
"Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.... 1 Timothy 4:1
So, one way Satan is pushing his coming rule is to bring more people into his doctrine. And how better to do this than by elevation the homosexual lifestyle into acceptance and honor.
Apollo: The god Who Embraces Homosexuality
36 “Then the king shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done. 37 He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all." Daniel 11:36-37
The above prophecy by Daniel is of the coming Anti-Christ. And like verse 36 says, God has determined his coming and he will come. In verse 37, among three things he has no "regard" for, is the "desire of women". Many scholars and commentators believed this alludes to the Anti-Christ, whom we have seen to be the god Apollo, is most likely homosexual. And, actually, this goes along with the Greek writings which say he had affairs with both men and women; he is bisexual. Now since this is a demon, he, like the "sons of God" fallen angels, as seen in Genesis and in the Part 1 message, may have taken the form of man, or possessed the body of man. As the Anti-Christ, Apollo will possess a man in the same way Satan possessed Judas to betray Jesus; the other "son of perdition".
Here are some examples of many concerning Apollo. On the homosexuality of Apollo, it was written he had a sexual relation with a poet by the name of Thamyris, who himself was homosexual. Thamyris was also supposed to be a grandson of Apollo. Apollo had relations with another human by the name of Hyacinthus, who was also supposed to have a homosexual relationship with Thamyris. This is alleged to be the first man to man homosexual relationship.
One research paper out of Boise State University on the subject of the homosexuality of the Greek gods says this,
"Apollo is in fact one Greek god that stands as example as to the theme of homosexuality in ancient Greek religion.
You see Apollo was known to have had many lovers and sexual partners, but the relationship that he is better known for having was with a human man by the name of Hyacinthus." Source: "Homosexuality In Ancient Greece" https://ancienthistorybsu.wordpress.com/2019/05/10/homosexuality-in-ancient-greece/
One paper considered Apollo the patron of same sex love, as he had many male lovers and was often invoked to bless homosexual unions. It is said that at times he would dress in women's clothing. 1
Hermes, Apollo's brother from another mother, is another bisexual god.
Hermaphroditus, one of Hermes sons is depicted as a winged youth (one of the "sons of God'?) who had both male and female features and parts.
Dionysus has been dubbed "a patron god of hermaphrodites and transvestites" 1
Teiresias, a transgender god who was changed from a man to a woman and back to a man.
Athena, goddess of war and a daughter of Zeus, is bisexual. Both Zeus and Athena had sexual relations with the same mortal woman.
Zeus, the great dragon himself, was a pedophile. He kidnapped for his lover a boy by the name of Ganymede who became his cupbearer. Zeus later put him in the sky as the constellation, Aquarius. How interesting it is that according to New Age beliefs, we have entered into the "Age of Aquarius", the promised one-world utopia that follows global disruption. Some astrologers disagree with this being the time for it.
The Religious Doctrine Of Homosexuality
The internet has a number of homosexual operated sites that with great pride show off these gods and goddesses as a sign of divine acceptance. They just have the wrong deceptive divinity accepting them.
One of these sites starts out by declaring to homosexuals, "You didn't know we were so divine." The owner of this site further says,
"People have worshiped queer gods and deities for millennia. Mortals throughout history looked to the gods for guidance, love, and acceptance regardless of sexuality. In this dive through history, we explore 52 immortals who enjoyed same-sex relationships." https://www.pride.com/entertainment/2017/9/11/52-queer-gods-who-ruled-ancient-history
So it is apparent that homosexuality is more than a lifestyle, it is of a religious nature. This quote shows that some homosexuals look to these demonic gods for guidance and acceptance. This becomes important shortly in this message.
I found a book on-line written by a woman who says she is a lesbian, but is also bisexual. This woman has written many books. The book here was written in 1989 and this woman is now 91 years old. I read the Prologue in this book and in it she said that she was once married, had kids, and after they were grown, she left her husband to pursue this homosexual lifestyle. Most of it involved having relations with homosexual men.
In the Prologue she recounted an experience where she was having some ritualistic home buying event that involved her and her male lover taking a psychedelic drug. She said that during this time she was approached by the god Dionysus and that her male lover served as a priest and witness in this demonic experience. She said she had sex with this god and afterward with her male lover. She then said three weeks later she found she was pregnant. Here it takes a strange turn to the realm of the "sons of God came into the daughters of men" in Genesis 6:4 in the days of Noah. She says,
"As soon as I realized that, it seemed clear to me that the child belonged to the god and was to be ritually sacrificed to him. I feared that might mean having to arrange for an abortion; instead I aborted spontaneously on the morning of the summer solstice, Dionysus’s birthday. It felt as though the god himself had come to take the child away" Myths and Mysteries of Same Sex Love, Christine Downing, 1989
Quite an example of the last days being "as the days of Noah" Matthew 24:37, and what some of the UFO proponents declare about alien contacts. We can also see the idea of sacrifice of a child to a god through abortion. And by the way, there is a temple to Dionysus on the side of the hill in Pergamon; the seat and dwelling place of Satan as seen in Revelation 2:12-17.
The author, who is a psychologist, made references to psychologists Freud and Jung in this book in a positive way toward homosexuality. Downing was also a scholar of religion, and "in depth Psychology. She taught at Pacifica Graduate Institute and was President of the American Academy of Religions.

So now we are getting into the health system side of homosexuality where the gods merge with the health system.
Homosexual gods And The Health System
In our prior message we saw that the health system via medical staff, facilities, and pharmaceutical companies, are responsible for performing transgender surgeries and providing drugs to facilitate bio changes in the bodies of children. We also saw how the schools are pushing the transgender agenda on children and purposely confusing them on their biological genders. But in my research I found that the health system also looks to these homosexual gods, as the owner of the Greek god website professed, for guidance and acceptance. This can be seen on the website of the National Institute of Health (NIH) of which former head of it, Francis Collins worked as well as Dr. Fauci. Collins is pro-homosexual and made a statement in 2013 on the NIH website which said in part,
"Yesterday, Secretary Sebelius issued a statement(link is external) commemorating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Health Awareness week. I would like to echo her support for improving the health of our LGBT friends and neighbors." https://www.nih.gov/about-nih/who-we-are/nih-director/statements/statement-nih-director-francis-collins-lgbt-health-awareness-week
The NIH's website has a number of articles on it referencing the homosexual gods of the ancient Greek religion as well as the ancient Greek medicine of Apollo and his son Asclepius from whence our medicine originated . But one of these articles actually follows suggesting that a child, and parents of a child, who has a biological sexual disorder from a birth defect, can look to these demonic entities for guidance and to know they are accepted.
In an article one the NIC website titled, "Fluidity Models In Ancient Greece and Current Practices of Sex Assignment", it professes that these Greek gods can provide guidance to children and their parents where the children have what they call "Disorders of Sexual Development" (DSD). This is a condition where the biological sex of a child is not conclusive. So instead of turning to the true God, these would refer people to the doctrines of demons. The article says in part,
"The biology underlying the fluidity inherent to these disorders should be presented to parents at diagnosis, an approach that the gender medicine field should embrace as good practice. Greek mythology provides many accepted archetypes of change, and the ancient Greek appreciation of metamorphosis can be used as context with these patients. Our goal is to inform expertise and optimal approaches, knowing that this fluidity may eventually necessitate sex reassignment. Physicians should provide sex assignment education based on different components of sexual differentiation, prepare parents for future hormone-triggered changes in their children, and establish a sex-assignment algorithm...
Speaking of the psychological side of gender change, the article continues,
"For the latter, we perhaps
need look no further than some well-known examples from the ancient Greeks. This
is of more than mere antiquarian interest; there are clinically applicable
lessons to be learned from our ancient forebearers.
What do ancient Greek art
and history reveal about metamorphosis? Mythological figures such as
Hermaphroditus and Daphne provide positive models of physical metamorphosis as
fluid and empowering. These models can inform and support positive approaches to
caring for patients with DSD.
In ancient Greece, individuals with DSD or the potential to metamorphose or exhibit role fluidity were celebrated and part of the fabric of the society. This societal inclusion translated into psychological and social acceptance of these roles as a part of the sociocultural constructs of the population. In our modern medical community, when we carry out sex assignment for individuals who have the potential to metamorphose given their biology, we must consider modern psychosocial constraints in addition to medical and psychological support. Taking the origins of acceptance from the examples of ancient Greece, adjusted to today’s social standards, is one avenue to reach patients and families with a message of positivity about fluidity..."
"...Daphne,
who was a reluctant love interest for the god Apollo, represents the pubertal
tensions of innocence and lust. She serves as a model for having a positive
attitude about metamorphosis, ending her story as a forever green and
flourishing laurel tree. Daphne and her story represent the core idea of the
power of transformation, which is accepted in her narrative as a
fully positive
phenomenon, a principle that is key for this patient population..."

This document had nine contributing MD's to it. So even our government's health system, while not recognizing the true God, does recognize and profess help from the family of Zeus and his son Apollo; the future anti-Christ. So, the gods say to the children, you are accepted because you are like them.
When we look at the homosexual issue in a broad sense, it is not just in Christianity, but also in many of the top world religions from what I have seen in my research. How interesting this is as when Apollyon does arrive, he will already have a religious base of acceptance with this group as well as the others in the world who marvel at him. We think it terrible that this part of society is called "protected" and to say anything against them is considered a hate crime, how much more will it be when their hero comes into power.
Conclusion
After we have seen in past messages that it is very probable that the demon known as Apollyon in the Word of God, is the same as the Greek god, Apollo. It than then be concluded that Apollo is also the Anti-Christ. In this message we have seen that Zeus and his children, including Apollo, are homosexual, bisexual, transgender, and other type sexes that oppose the model and plan that God had in his creation. We saw that there is a definite religious aspect to the world of homosexuality in the worship of these gods, even by the U.S Government and the health system.
We can see that in the word in a prophecy of Daniel, the Ant-Christ appears to be homosexual. We also see in the Greek religion that Apollo, who is the god of medicine, is also homosexual. I believe we can come to a conclusion that this demon possessed person will be homosexual and have something to do with the world health system and that the LGTBQ culture will be one of his welcoming committees. For as Christians are to conform to the image of Christ, the Anti-Christ would have the LGTBQ culture conform to the image of Apollo, the homosexual god and favored son of Zeus.

When we look at all of these things and then see the pervasiveness of homosexuality in the world, and especially in the United States, it is moving this way. Homosexuals are have been coming into ruling government positions for a number of years. And with seeing that Biden has appointed and hired a number of the more blatant of these who match some of the gods of ancient Greece, not because they are qualified, but because of what they are. All oppose God but in the most obvious ways have taken on the image of the family of the future anti-Christ. We need to look no further than the Assistant Secretary of Health, Admiral Rachel Levine, a man dressed as a woman doctor, and Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, CDC’s Director of the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention (DHAP) in the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP).
What part of the health system may the anti-Christ arise out of if this is where he comes from?
Then there is Sam Briton, the former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear. Energy. He is a transvestite drag queen who was arrested for stealing luggage and was later arrested.
The World Economic Forum is extremely pro LGTBQ and is always referring to "inclusion" of them in all forms within society.
All of this is rather telling and a sad revelation of the many people that are being groomed to accept the coming ant-Christ who opposes all that the true God is. It is sad that people turn from a Biblical God ordained and created human beings of just two sexes, man and woman, to the religion of the anti-Christ that you can be any sex you want and follow the religion of Zeus and his son homosexual son, Apollo.
So as we progress in this anti-Christ world of today, we should watch the health system and be alert to what direction(s) it is traversing; which right now appears to be into darkness.
A Message To Those Who Don’t Know God and His Salvation
If you are not a believer, but you just might think that there is something to
what you have read here, you may want to learn more.
God does not want anyone to perish eternally, nor to even go through the
Tribulation which is seven years of Hell on Earth.
Here is a place to start
to learn about the salvation that God has for
you.
The ABCs of Salvation
Some people think a personal relationship with God is something only theologians
can comprehend. Actually, God’s plan of salvation is simple enough for everyone
to understand. Here are the ABCs of salvation.
Admit
Admit to God that you are a sinner. All persons need salvation. Each of us has a
problem the Bible calls sin. Sin is a refusal to acknowledge God’s authority
over our lives. Everyone who does not live a life of perfect obedience to the
Lord is guilty of sin. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”
(Rom. 3:23). Since none of us is perfect, all of us are sinners (Rom.
3:10-18).The result of sin is spiritual death (Rom. 6:23). Spiritual death means
eternal separation from God. By God’s perfect standard we are guilty of sin and
therefore subject to the punishment for sin, which is separation from God.
Admitting that you are a sinner and separated from God is the first step of
repentance, which is turning from sin and self and turning toward God.
Believe
Believe in Jesus Christ as God’s Son and receive Jesus’ gift of forgiveness from
sin. God loves each of us. God offers us salvation. Although we have done
nothing to deserve His love and salvation, God wants to save us. In the death of
Jesus on the cross, God provided salvation for all who would repent of their
sins and believe in Jesus. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life”
(John 3:16).
Confess
Confess your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord to others. After you have
received Jesus
Christ into your life, share your decision with another person. Tell your pastor
or a Christian friend about your decision.
If you do not go to church or have a pastor, ask God to lead you to a
church that teaches truth and the gospel.
Following Christ’s example, ask for baptism by immersion in your church
as a public expression of your faith. “If you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is
Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be
saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is
with your mouth that you confess and are saved” (Rom. 10:9-10).
Then take the time to learn from, and of God. Study the Bible. Get a
New King James, New American Standard, or a King James version to begin your
study. The first two are easier reading. The King James has more
word study materials with it but the old language may be a little harder to
read.
