The Angels didn't ask me to sign anything.
Demons asked me to sign. **sighs** Let me make it simpler for you.
I signed a contract.
I made a 'deal' so to speak that I could resist the lure of evil for the 40 days and 40 nights to be worthy of the knowledge I now possessed. What they referred to as a 'Trial of my purity of heart'. If I fail, I have no doubt that I shall probably die as it was my 'soul' that I wagered. Or worse I will probably end up an instrument of evil in some form or another. But this will not happen!
Our race was sold our genetically by its mother in exchange for powers that would see her elevated to God (or Satan).

By the way, for the OP to state that his God isn't the God of any religion that we already know of is a contradiction to scripture. It contradicts what Jesus said about himself.
Ishtar, Goddess of the Tower, the goddess, or "Mother of Harlots," as she is called in Revelation 17:5, is found throughout scripture. She is the Canaanite Ashtoreth, the "Queen of Heaven" in Jeremiah 7:18, and the Diana of the Ephesians" of Acts 19:28. Though her identity changes, her purpose never does. She is the great "virgin queen" who gives birth to an immortal redeemer. In short, she is Satan’s counterfeit of the Bible’s redemption story.
The Babylonian Semiramis, under the name of Astarte, was known as "the tower goddess." Alexander Hislop, writing in "The Two Babylons," notes, "Now, no name could more exactly picture forth the character of Semiramis, as the queen of Babylon, than the name of "Asht-tart," for that just means ‘The woman that made towers.’ Thus, in the Hebrew, this is the meaning of the goddess Ashtoreth.
In the Greek, she was known as Artemis, but in reality, was none other than Ashtoreth or Astarte. As recorded in Acts chapter 19, Paul threatened the livelihood of the guild of silversmiths. They cast souvenir goddesses from silver to be purchased by the faithful who made pilgrimages to her temple. More than that, she was their protector goddess. Paul’s gospel preaching threatened to overturn their worship…and their business.
Daniel’s prophecy points to the antichrist’s worship: "But in his estate, shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things."
Thus, in II Thessalonians 2:9, the antichrist is shown being revealed, "…after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders." The awakening worship of Baal and Ishtar will leap into the public consciousness once more, amazing those who thought that this pagan worship had died forever.
This corresponds to Daniel 11:36, where we read, "And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done."

I am fully aware of who she is and what is taking place. I am not deceived as to the fact that the creator GOD is male and his son Jesus lived and died for us and that is who i serve and will bow to. There is more to the story though.

Ishtar making a reappearance was one of my first thoughts too.
I always wondered if she was the Mystery of the Whore of Babylon that will fall in the end times.
The Holy Spirit is of the same character of God and His image in the flesh, Jesus: a male.

All deceivers can be detected when regarded with a heart of joy and love.
You need only offer the palms of your hands to them and speak the name of God, your heart will reveal to you instantly their true nature and intent.
Islam will fall, I shall see this so by either my own doing or those who may follow.
And Rome is to fall as you stated, but not through the measures you believe. You actually have it completely backwards.
This will be through division towards a new faith. Their deception will come through the cosmic influences which make them unable to see the light and virtue that is offered to them.
I have decoded the entire prophecies of Daniel, I have accepted my fate as both darkness and light within our future and I can assure you, much as Judas was charged to task by Jesus in his actions, I will see done what is necessary for the light to be able to shine upon all men once again.
As it stands at the moment, there is no other way that our race will survive other than a sequence that shall see at least two thirds of all men perish.
Every action that I will take if I am to succeed in my trials will in attempt to prevent this from happening and save as many as possible from such a fate.
What you will know to be the antichrist will unfortunately be necessary.
You will know the sacrifice that was made and many will weep for having forsaken their saviour once more.

Well the message i got in worship today was that the talk and debate time is over. Time for choosing and actions for me. I know the truth but have no proof to display and my speaking truth only digs me a hole because of my lack of control for my words and thoughts. Some things are not supposed to be shared.
