Christus Troia Nova and Babylon the Great

<p>Christus Troia Nova and Babylon the Great: How Daniel Aristotle Virgil Seneca and the Didache Prophesized the USA and the Return of Christ understands Greco-Roman epic and tragedy as a part of Judeo-Christian scripture-that together they make up a more complete whole. Building upon his earlier article Are Dionysos and Oedipus Name Variations for Satan and Antichrist? originally published in The Journal of Greco-Roman Christianity and Judaism the book reflects new insights about the place of the USA in end-time prophecy.</p><p>Thus following Joachim of Fiore the approach in this book has been to understand history as exegesis. The difference is Joachim thought as Bernard McGinn notes in Antichrist: Two Thousand Years of the Human Fascination with Evil 'God's judgment over history is grasped only through the interpretation of the Bible' whereas I believe Greco-Roman tragedy and epic in conjunction with the Bible and the Didache's three signs signifying the final Theophany of Christ provides a more complete picture. The approach here therefore incorporates the following assessment:</p><p>(1) Dionysos/Satan/Osiris are the same deity.</p><p>(2) Canaanites/Phoenicians/Ham/Hercules/Cadmus/Oedipus/Alexander the Great/Nero/Macbeth are all related by blood.</p><p>(3) USA is a reconstituted Roman Empire. It is or can be Dante's 'that Rome of which Christ was Roman' or Babylon the Great of Revelation.</p>
