This study will reveal the meaning of the symbols, statues and attire used by the Pope and priests, as they reveal what the Papal Church is really worshiping.
For thousands of years Pagan religions have used symbols to show which gods they worshiped. These symbols were declared openly in Egypt, Babylon, Rome and other cultures.
These symbols are still used today, but their true meanings are hidden. Most people typically don’t notice the symbol or they have a positive impression of it.
The enlightened understand the meaning behind the symbols, and they use them to communicate with others.
Leaders of a Christian Church should not have anything to do with the symbols of pagan gods.
“For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God.” 2 Corinthians 6:14,16
If you’re Catholic, ask yourself why the leaders of the Roman Catholic Church are using all of these symbols of pagan gods.
The Zucchetti which is worn by Catholic priests, cardinals and the Pope, represents respect, fear and submission to Cybele, the Mother Goddess of Rome.
The Cap of Cybele is one of the oldest and most sacred pagan religious symbols of humanity, dating back to 2,000 B.C.
The skull cap was worn by the sun priests of Egypt.
It is a thin, slightly rounded skullcap now commonly known by various titles including the Yarmulke (Jewish) and Kufi (Muslims).
The Roman Catholic Church calls it the Zucchetti.
Vatican Hill was the site of the largest ancient temple to Cybele. Ashtoreth the goddess of fertility, sexuality and war; was known as Cybele in Rome.
The Bible warns against worshiping her, “Then the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baals and the Ashtoreths.” Judges 10:6
The Bible declares “For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 11:7
Ask yourself, why do Catholic priests, Bishops and the Pope, wear the Cap of Cybele?
The Mitre hat that is worn by Catholic priests, cardinals and the Pope, represents Dagon the Babylonian fish god.
The ancient Babylonians worshiped Dagan, the god of agriculture, plenty (food) and good fortune.
The Babylonian priests wore a headdress that represented the worship of Cybele and Dagon. It featured an open-fish mouth on the head, with the rest of the fish body forming a cloak.
In the Roman Empire, it was worn by the head priest of Cybele (the Magna Mater) or the Great Queen Mother Goddess.
Today the Catholic Cardinals, Bishops and the Pope all wear the open fish-mouth mitre, which represents the worship of Cybele and Dagon.
The Mitre hat of Dagan is always worn over the Kippa of Ashtoreth/Cybele, as you can see in the picture of Pope Francis I.
God warned the Jews not to worship the gods of Babylon, ” I will pronounce My judgments on them concerning all their wickedness, whereby they have forsaken Me and have offered sacrifices to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands.” Jeremiah 1:16
Ask yourself, why do Catholic Cardinals, Bishops and the Pope, all wear the mitre of Dagan?
The Obelisk in St. Peter’s Square represents the worship of the Sun god.
Obelisks were prominent in the architecture of the ancient Egyptians, who placed them at the entrance of a temple, marking it as a zone of sun worship.
They represent the Sun God Ra, the Egyptians’ greatest deity; the creator of humanity, the source of all heat and light, the being on which man was totally dependent.
An Egyptian obelisk sits in front of the Pantheon of ancient Rome, which housed statues of their pagan gods. The obelisk was originally constructed by Pharaoh Ramses II for the Temple of Ra in Heliopolis. It was brought to Rome in ancient times where it was used near a shrine to the Egyptian god Isis.
The Pantheon was dedicated to pan theos, meaning “all the gods.” When it became a Roman Catholic Church, it was dedicated to the Virgin Mary and all the martyrs.
The most well-known Egyptian obelisk was re-erected in 1586 A.D., in front of St. Peter’s Basilica. It is surrounded by a sun wheel, with the points lining up with the Vernal Equinox, the Summer Solstice and the Winter Solstice.
.
During the sunrise on the Vernal Equinox, the sun causes the obelisk to cast its shadow towards the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica, which represents the sexual union of the sun god and moon goddess.
God’s 2nd commandment says, “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God.” Exodus 20:4-5
Ask yourself, why does the Catholic Church venerate pagan monuments to the Sun god?
The six-sided star is the supreme symbol of Satanic tyranny.
The hexagram has been used by people such as the pagan Babylonians, Egyptians and Assyrians, to directly or indirectly worship Satan.
Helena Blavatsky wrote that “Lucifer is the true God“, and she incorporated the hexagram in the emblem of the Theosophical Society, which she founded in 1875.
Satanists, Luciferians, astrologers and witches use it to invoke the power of demons.
The six-sided star numerically equals 666 (6 points, 6 triangles, 6-sided hexagon).
Christians pass it off as the ‘Star of David‘ but the truth is that King David never used a star, so calling it a nice sounding name hides what it really represents. King Solomon used it in witchcraft, magic and idolatrous worship to Ashtoreth and to Moloch.
Stephen accused the Jewish leaders, “And you took up the tent of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, the figures which you made” “in order to worship them.” Acts 7:43
Ask yourself, why does the Catholic Church use the Satanic six-sided star?
The eight-pointed star represents the pagan goddess Ishtar, the lightbringer.
In Babylonian symbolism, the goddess Ishtar is represented by an eight-pointed starburst, and she is associated with the planet of Venus.
Ishtar was the Babylonian High-Mother-Goddess, the goddess of fertility, love and war. Her cult was the most important one in ancient Babylon.
An eight-point star enclosed within a circle is the symbol for the sun god, as it’s points represent the solstices and equinoxes.
The “Babylonian star-cult is the core and the archetype of subsequent astrology.”
At the center of St. Peter’s Basilica, the Pope sits in the middle of eight 8-sided stars.
Ask yourself, why does the Catholic Church use the eight-pointed star of Ishtar?
The Maltese Cross represents Shamash, the god of the Sun and Justice.
In the image, an ancient Assyrian king is wearing a cross on his chest, just like the one seen on the Pope’s robe.
Shamash (Akkadian Šamaš “Sun”), was a native Mesopotamian deity and the sun god in the Akkadian, Assyrian and Babylonian pantheons.
Shamash was the god of justice in Babylonia and Assyria, corresponding to Sumerian Utu.
This cross was identified with a Sun god eight centuries before Christ and long before it was called the Maltese Cross by the Knights of Malta.
It’s also called the Iron Cross. Roman Catholic Adolph Hitler renewed use of the Iron Cross in 1939 and superimposed the Nazi swastika in its center.
Ask yourself, why does the Pope wear the cross of Shamash the Sun god?
Pine cones symbolize the worship of the solar god Osiris.
Pine cones are associated with spiritual enlightenment by ancient Babylonians, Egyptians and Greeks. They represent the mysterious link between the physical and the spiritual worlds, which can be found in the human brain, in the pineal gland.
The pine cone staff is a symbol of the solar god Osiris and originated in Egypt where he was their messiah who died for his people and whose Mother, Isis, was worshiped as the Virgin Mother.
The Vatican also has the world’s largest pine cone that once decorated a fountain in ancient Rome next to a vast Temple of Isis.
At the Old St. Peter’s Basilica, it was dedicated to Attis, son and lover of Cybele. The Catholic Church then relocated it to what’s now called the Vatican Court of the Pigna.
Ask yourself, why do Popes use pine cones which symbolize the solar god Osiris?
Revelation 13 says that Satan the dragon gives authority to the antichrist beast.
The Bible calls Satan the great dragon, who deceives the world.
“So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Revelation 12:9
Revelation 13 tells us that antichrist beast is empowered by the dragon to deceive the world.
“So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” Revelation 13:3
Ask yourself, why does the Catholic Church use images of the dragon which represents Satan?
Friend, it’s obvious that the Roman Catholic Church is worshiping other gods, which is forbidden by the Bible.
God’s 1st commandment says “You shall have no other gods before Me.” Exodus 20:3
The Roman Catholic Church and the Pope have fulfilled many Bible prophecies, as the antichrist beast of Revelation.

Brother you need to open the Cathcism and actually read about my faith and make educated statements not vague assumptions from texts that hold as much place in society as the Inquire. I knew you would answer that way that’s why I asked the question : ). If you want to be free from all pagan roots and practices good luck because they have been adopted over time into almost every aspect of our lifes. If you wanna see a fish you will see a fish… I you wanna see an upside-down cross on the Pope you will see a satanic symbol which has only been adopted on the last 200 years not a represention of St Peters death hu who was with Christ and died spreading his word. I am sorry but what you say about the faith holds little to no truth.
The Catechism is man-made and is it contrary to the Holy Scriptures. I’ll stick with the Scriptures, thanks. You expected me to show the symbolic sexual union of the Sun god and Moon goddess at the Vatican? I doubt it.
In paganism, whenever an obelisk is placed in front of a temple, it designates that temple as a place of Sun worship. The Egyptian obelisk in St. Peter’s Square, which represents the Sun god Ra, sits in the middle of a huge sun wheel. Wake up! The Vatican is a place of Sun worship!
The Pantheon in Rome was built by Hadrian in 126 CE “to all the gods”.
The temple is now the Catholic Church Sancta Maria ad Martyrs and it still has the Egyptian obelisk in front of it.
The true church of Christ would not have Egyptian obelisks, which represent the Sun god, and ultimately, Satan.
The Roman Catholic Church, the Harlot Church of Revelation 17, is steeped in Sun worship symbols. Come out of her!
David what are you doing for Christmas??
Dude, I don’t observe Christmas, as it is celebrated on the same day that pagans celebrate the re-birth of the Sun god. They believe that the Sun god dies on the winter Solstice, 12/21; is dead for three days, and then comes back to life, so they celebrate his birth on 12/25.
Interestingly enough at the Vatican in St. Peter’s Square, on the Spring Equinox, the symbolism of the Sun gods conception is played out. When the morning Sun strikes the Egyptian Obelisk in St. Peter’s Square (which is a phallic symbol of the Sun god Nimrod of Babylon), it causes its shadow to fall on the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica (which represents the womb of the moon goddess Semiramus). This symbolizes their annual sexual union, and nine months later, the reincarnated Sun God Tammuz is born, on 12/25
Christ-mass is a creation of the Roman Bishops and Emperor Constantine in the 4th century, which combined their worship of Sol Invictus, their Sun god, with the Messiah of the Bible.
Besides that, Messiah was born in the fall, not in the winter.
What are you doing for Christmas Dude?
Their is no religion begun by Jesus. Their is always someone at the head running the show and telling us what is right and wrong. They are also trying to see how they can get more and more money from us. All religions on earth were begun by man. That is why no one can agree which religion is correct. I see at least one new preacher on tv a week. They all say they are correct and everyone else is wrong. That is why Protestants have so many different religions. They are clueless to which one is correct. That is also why no one really knows the exact day Jesus was born. It was put on December 25 to counter a pagan holiday. Everyone who really knows about the New Testament knows that the books attributed to certain people where actually written by followers of those people. The stories like the Garden of Edan have been found to be similar to ancient Babalonian stories especially the creation epic. As for the Catholic Church it is not the only religion to use scull caps and the other hats you attribute to them. Your bringing up that Catholics worship fish gods, other gods and the pentagram shows you have a great imagination and can not admit your religion is also wrong. I have been to a lot of different churches both Protestant and Catholic and the only thing that is worshipped is God and Jesus Christ. As for the pope being the antichrist, the only thing thing I have to say about that is how many antichrist’s are their? Their have been hundreds of popes. How can each one be the antichrist. They are and were ordinary men that died and have been buried like everyone else will be. Why don’t you look at all of these so called televangelists who wear mink coats and diamond rings , hundres of dollar coustom made suits and shoes. They have people drive them around in fancy cars and fly around in private jets. They also have aircondtioned and heated houses for their pets. They are antichrists for leading their followers who are blind to this and have no clue they are being lead astray. We are all sinners. When we die Jesus will not ask us why we were a certain religion. He will ask us why we judge other people about their religious beliefs and other things. That is the job of Jesus Christ not us. The only things that matter is Jesus Christ and our faith in him.
Thanks for your comment Michael. fyi, I am not part of a Protestant Church or any church. Scripture tells us that Messiah was born in the Fall, on the feast of Tabernacles, as God came to dwell with us. We know this because he was born six months after John the Baptist, who was born during the Spring feasts. And we know it because Messiah’s ministry started at age 30, and it lasted 3 1/2 years, ending in the Spring when He was killed as the Passover Lamb of God.
Antichrist is a position, not just one man. If has been fulfilled by the office of the papacy. The Popes fulfill Bible prophecy as the Little Horn of Daniel 7, the Son of Perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2, the antichrist of Revelation 13 and the Roman Church is the Harlot of Revelation 17. http://christianitybeliefs.org/end-times-deceptions/
Most Protestant Churches are now daughters of the Harlot of Rome, as are the televangelists.
We are called to expose deceptions, and Roman Catholicism is a deception from the enemy, which misleads people with a false salvation message. And so is what is preached in many Protestant Churches too. Messiah said to come out of the influence of the Babylonian Roman Church!
