The Reason for the Rapid Rise of Mohammad bin Salman

Just a few years ago, Mohammad bin Salman was one of many royal sons in the Al-Saud family of Saudi Arabia. Kingship was passed from brother to brother in the previous generation, and the families each had their spot in the rotation for a king. The structure provided a semblance of order, as there was an unwritten rule that no individual family amongst the House of Saud would gain permanent leadership.

When Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud became king in early 2015, this all changed. As the line of brothers was dwindling, the next step was to move on to the next generation. Rather than maintaining the balance of passing kingship between the different branches of the royal family, King Salman chose to place his own son, Mohammad bin Salman, as the second in line for the throne in the position of deputy crown prince.

At the time, this was a very provocative act, as he disregarded how things were done and showed to other branches of the royal family that he was not adhering to the unwritten rules. However, he was still only second in line, behind his uncle, Muhammad bin Nayef.

In addition to granting his own son this role, Mohammad bin Salman was given many titles: First Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defense, chief of the House of Saud royal court, and chairman of the Council for Economic and Development Affairs, amongst others.

Since his installment as Minister of Defense, he has waged war on Yemen and formed a coalition against Qatar. He has threatened to bring the war to Iran and shown little signs of diplomacy. Saudi Arabia is struggling economically and the royal family's grip on control of the country is slipping as the global economic situation deteriorates. Importantly, all these actions are assigned to his own decisions.

As of June, he is first in line with the king displacing Muhammad bin Nayef as Crown Prince.

None of this is an accident. Whether he himself knows it or not, he has skyrocketed to this position in a way that is intended to paint the fulfillment of prophecies. Global powers that manipulate circumstances to bring about certain outcomes are actively seeking to show the world that Islamic prophecies are being fulfilled. First, the so-called Islamic State came to be, a name strategically chosen because prophecies say that there will be a muslim nation referred to as "Islamic State".

Now, Mohammad bin Salman has been chosen to play the role of Al-Mahdi, the Islamic end times "savior". The whole purpose of this is to present sufficient evidence so that people look to prophecies and see the name "Islamic State" and interpret that this is the army spoken of, and that they look to Mohammad bin Salman's rapid and sudden rise and look to him as Al-Mahdi.

Not that either are. That's not the point. The point is to make unsuspecting people believe that they are and then look at their actions to determine how they feel about these entities. As Mohammad bin Salman is given all the credit for the war on Yemen and any destructive decisions made by Saudi Arabia, he, just like the Islamic State, is being used to show the world how inherently evil Islam is.

No reasonable person would follow him as a savior while he slaughters innocent people; instead, they would conclude that the Mahdi, which he seems to be, is evil and therefore Islam is evil. From 9/11 onward, there has been a direct and relentless assault on the entirety of Islam with purpose and intent.

The goal is to paint the religion with blood. Why would anyone do this? Why would anyone care this much? It's simple: it is incompatible with another world view.

The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was nothing more than a messenger of God. . . So believe in God and His messengers and do not speak of a ‘Trinity’ – stop [this], that is better for you – God is only one God, He is far above having a son. (4:171)

To some, the Quran and Islam are inherently evil. And there are those so convinced that they are willing to do things to make everyone agree. And they have so much power and influence, that they can do these things. In fact, all world events show that there is an active attempt to produce sufficient evidence that as many people as possible unwittingly agree that Jesus is God. It's as simple as that. Even the creation of the country Israel is for this purpose. Unfortunately, while Jesus is God, so is everything else. God is Everything, The All, Unlimited, and there is truth in all sources.
