Two Kingdoms

Prophecy is very much against the Catholic church, whether Greek or Roman catholic.

In the year 1054 they split into two kingdoms. Even before this they vested power in two cities, Rome and Constantinople.

It was while the Roman government still existed and after Constantine that the kingdom was divided into East and West.

In 393, two years before his death, Emperor Flavius Theodosius (Theodosius I), divided the Roman Empire into two parts. The Western Roman Empire Theodosius placed in the hands of his younger son Flavius Honorius, who he declared Augustus in 393 when Honorius was only nine years old.

Honorius's "throne was guarded by his principal general, Flavius Stilicho, who was successively Honorius's guardian (during his childhood) and his father-in-law (after the emperor became an adult). Despite Stilicho's generalship, the empire lost ground; and after the guardian's execution, Honorius's empire moved towards the verge of collapse" (Wikipedia article on Honorius [emperor]) accessed 05-10-2009).

The Eastern Roman Empire or Byzantine Empire Theodosius placed in the hands of his older son Flavius Arcadius. Ten years earlier, in 383 Theodosius had declared Arcadius Augustus, and had co-ruled the Eastern half of the Roman Empire with him until 393.

Their separation proved the Catholics were not the true church. The Church would never again be divided into two kingdoms, not even for a short period. Nor would they have two kings such as two Augustas, one ruling East and one ruling West.

Eze 37:22  And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

Israel and Judah were joined under Christ, and his kingdom would never divide again. Not into Northern and Southern tribes. Not into Greek or Roman. Not into Jew and Gentile. Not into Catholic and protestant. Not into East and West.

Eze 37:24  And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.

The papacy could not be the King, neither Peter nor his Roman successors were of the tribe of David. The king here is clearly Christ. It is not the Papacy.

Christ would reign forever in an undivided kingdom.

Since the Catholics separated into Greek and Roman, they could not be Christ's kingdom. They separated into two kingdoms.

Constantinople was called the Byzantine empire.

Rome was called the Roman empire.
