This little article seemed important because of the False Prophet. He is a religious charlatan (Revelation 13:11), yet the leader of the one-world church (Revelation 17). His main role is honoring the Antichrist (Revelation 13:12). He will work unbelievable miracles (Revelation 13:13), lead people into idolatry (worshipping the Image of the Beast, the Antichrist), and execute people in the name of religion. Finally, He will be forever tormented with the Antichrist in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10).

Vatican won’t rule out bid for U.N. membership
Associated Press November 25, 2002
VATICAN CITY — The Holy See will explore stepping up its presence at the United Nations and does not rule out a bid for membership, according to media reports Sunday.
The Vatican, a city-state, is a permanent observer at the United Nations, a status that lets it participate in U.N. conferences and deliver speeches in the General Assembly but gives it no voting power.
In an interview with Corriere della Sera newspaper, Cardinal Angelo Sodano, the Vatican’s No. 2 official, was asked if the United Nations was up to its peace tasks.
"It must be up to the task and every one must do their part to help it assume an ever-more active and efficient role on the world scene," replied Sodano, the Vatican’s secretary of state.
He added, "The Holy See intends to study the possible forms of its own stepped-up presence in that connection."
Asked if that meant the Vatican might become a U.N. member, Sodano was quoted as replying: "If that were useful, I wouldn’t rule it out."
