Chapter 15.1
Anti-Christ
Who
is He? - Is he a man? - Is he a
homosexual?
Is
this man the New Hitler? – What is his agenda?
When
will he be born? – Where does he come from?
What
is the Abomination of Desolation? - The Mark?
First
Word
Much has been written
about the IDENTITY of the Antichrist ranging from Nero
to Henry
Kissinger, the Pope and even our President. But the Bible says we will not know his name until
he sets up his image in the Temple for people to worship.
There was a man
who was of small
beginnings; he was a corporal in the army and had a minimal
education; he was basically an unemployed artist; a paper hanger who had no money; he lived in homeless
shelters and men’s hostels, he
was UNKNOWN with no
background.
BUT, when he spoke, the people were
mesmerized.
§ He took over the most educated Country in the
world.
§ He concealed what he was like
personally and people wept for him in Love.
§ He built 42,500 facilities to
concentrate, confine and kill Jews
and other
victims.
§ He killed Eleven Million Jews in what
is now known as the Holocaust.
500,000 people
were direct participants in the planning and execution of the
Jews.
His name was ADOLPH HITLER;
and there’s a NEW ONE COMING.
Hitler vs; New
Age World Religion
The New Age World Religion Movement that most do
not even notice, has the same agenda as Hitler did... For a real eye opener, go to your
local book store; you will find a whole section on NEW
AGE and
the Occult.
ü Hitler held to the
secret doctrine that the Aryan society was
a master race from Atlantis who took quantum leaps in superior
intelligence over the other races. The
inferior races needed to be purged.
NEW AGE teachings
include “secret doctrines” that come from
Atlantis.
ü Hitler believed in a PURE ARYAN
MASTER RACE that
had evolved into a superior spiritual species...
NEW AGE teaches that
they have evolved into a “new species” called “homo noeticus.” JEWS are from a
different planet and BLACKS and ORIENTALS are from a different root race.
ü Hitler; a Blood Taint rest
on the Jews that NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED...
NEW AGE teachings: The
Jews have forfeited their privilege and must pass through fires of
purification. The Messiah will not be Jewish.
ü Hitler calls murdering
Jews; a “CLEANSING ACTION”...
NEW AGE teachings supports a “cleansing action” to get rid of any group that stands in the way of “spiritual unity”.
ü Hitler sought a New World Order...
NEW AGE teachings: same
thing
ü Hitler had “Mein Kampf” or “My Plan”
to rule
NEW AGE teaching has “My Plan” of “The Lord
Maitreya”.
ü Hitler used “mystery
teachings” of the East.
NEW AGE teachings: same
thing
ü Hitler used Occultism and
mind expansion at “the Nazi Occult
Bureau” and the “SS Occult Bureau”
NEW AGE movement
embraces the Occult
and mind expansion.
ü Hitler had a Quest for a higher consciousness; the Holy Grail
NEW AGE teachings: same
quest.
ü Hitler used drugs
for mind expansion
NEW AGE indorses LSD
for the same reason.
ü Hitler believed in the
Law of Karma
and Reincarnation.
NEW AGE teachings follows the same thing.
ü Hitler holds to the
belief that the gods live in Shamballa
NEW AGE teachings: same thing.
ü Hitler was an “Initiate” of the Occult
NEW AGE teachings requires a Luciferic type “Initiation”.
ü Hitler had a militia
of young “Brown
Shirt” men, trained in martial arts to patrol streets.
NEW AGE has the same thing, one group is called the “Guardian Angels”
and there are many. The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow. Constance

The
Story speedreading in 60
seconds
ü
The deception of Satan can be traced from the Garden of Eden and will continue to the end.
ü
Satan; aka
the Dragon enters into a man and he becomes his false prophet; the Anti-spirit.
ü
Satan enters into another man and he becomes the Antichrist
ü
Satan sees himself as God... he now has a trinity...
This will fool many, he is like God.
ü
The Antichrist is shot in the head and appears dead...
is resurrected...
similar to Christ
ü
Many think he is the Messiah and follow and worship
him. Satan is ecstatic.
ü
Jesus comes back and raptures the believing
church... It happens faster than you can blink.
ü
Great confusion exists... Satan, the fallen
angels, demons and the wicked are all that’s left.
ü
This is the first part of Christ’s second coming...
Some get saved because of this event.
ü
God
seals and marks 144,000 Jews to preach the gospel of salvation one more
time
ü
All creation sees God’s love for His creation and
they are a WITNESS to his
patience.
ü
Seven
years of tribulation begins... The Antichrist makes a peace treaty with
Israel.
ü
Wars,
famine, pestilence, boils, sickness, hail, earthquakes & natural disasters are prevalent.
ü
The
Antichrist seals his followers with a mark on their forehead like God did
the 144,000.
ü
They can now buy food and sell stuff... They
worship the Antichrist as the Messiah.
ü
They are doomed forever... This is the unpardonable sin...
They cannot change their mind.
ü
Some do not take the mark, many are killed. Heaven takes note... The angels ponder it.
ü
Antichrist breaks the Peace agreement with
Israel 3 ½ years into the agreement
ü
Antichrist stops the sacrifices in the Temple
ü
Antichrist sets up an image of Satan in
the temple... it can talk... it is worshiped.
ü
There is war in heaven. Michael, God’s Archangel, defeats Satan
and his angels.
ü
Satan and one third of the angels are
thrown out of heaven.
ü
God
sends two witnesses to preach one more time... They do
miracles... many are saved
ü
The two witnesses; might be Elijah & Enoch, (maybe Moses) both previously raptured and translated.
ü
They preach the Gospel for the last 3 ½ years of the tribulation
ü
They are supernaturally protected during their
mission
ü
They perform great miracles; call down fire from
Heaven, and cause droughts
ü
When their mission is complete, God allows the
Antichrist to kill them
ü
They lie in the streets for 3 ½ days... It’s televised by satellite.
ü
The Heavens thunder... The Two Witnesses are resurrected and raptured or translated
ü
The process is slow enough for everybody on earth
to see it via satellite.
ü
A great earthquake hits... A tenth of Jerusalem
is destroyed
ü
Seven Thousand men are killed... Survivors
recognize the power of God
The
Millennium preamble... War of Gog and Magog. The
millennium reign
ü
Russia and its allies attack Israel and are
defeated by nature... wind up killing each other.
ü
During the entire tribulation period, one half of
the world’s population is killed.
ü
Birds are summoned to eat the dead... It takes
seven months to bury the dead remains.
ü
The
Antichrist and
the false
prophet are thrown into the lake of fire.
A Falling Away
The word Antichrist is found only
in four scriptures, but the idea is conveyed throughout the Book. Prophecy says before this New Hitler or Antichrist
can come on the scene, the church will start falling away from the spiritual
things of God;[1] from the doctrines of Christ, then the
remaining true church will be raptured[2]
and with it, the Holy Spirit which is the
restraining force against the Antichrist; then about 3 1/2 years into the tribulation period, the antichrist is finally revealed.[3]
The falling away has already started with the New Age Movement proclaiming the heresy that all the religious “spokes in a
wheel” lead to the same hub; the same god.
I’ll say it
another way; America
HAS turn its back on God. - Pray for America
The
Rapture - The
Tribulation... Jacobs Trouble
The Antichrist
although active, cannot come on the scene in power until the restraining force
is removed which is the Holy Spirit within
the Church,[4]
and that happens at the RAPTURE when we who “contain” the Holy
Spirit are removed too. The Holy Spirit is
the restraining
force on earth, holding back Satan. When Jesus sent the Holy Spirit into the
earth, He placed Him inside every Believer.
THE
BELIEVER IS THE CONTAINER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
The timeline for the antichrist during the
7 years of
tribulation, especially the last 3 ½ years is known as Jacob’s
Trouble, the GREAT TRIBULATIONS. Many facets of the tribulation began long
before the rapture, by as much as 30 years, such as the birth of the Antichrist
and False Prophet. So in essence you
could say that the rapture and tribulation “sort of” overlap each other.
The Antichrist,
this new Hitler will already be on the scene before the
rapture as a peaceful conqueror and helps establish the United States of Europe
which we call the Revived Roman Empire. He is not a world leader as of yet and by all
outwardly appearances, seems to be a good guy.
Egypt
and Russia have
become a threat to Israel. The Antichrist,
probably a Nobel
Peace Prize winner enters into a
Peace agreement between Rome and Israel which starts the time clock on the tribulation period... Israel has
peace for 3½ years until the Anti-Christ breaks the agreement.
Isaiah warned
the Jews that the agreement would be an agreement with death and Hell.
2 Thessalonians 2:6-7 –The restraining force is the
Holy Spirit
6 And now you
know what is HOLDING HIM
BACK,
so that he may be revealed at the proper time.
7 The secret
power of lawlessness (Anti-Christ) IS ALREADY AT WORK; but THE ONE WHO NOW HOLDS IT BACK (the Holy
Spirit) will
continue till he (Anti-Christ) is taken out of the way.
NIV
The
Mark
God
seals and marks 144,000 Israelite Jews in
order to protect them from the wrath that is about to be unloaded during the seven years
of this Great Tribulation period.[5] God’s mark on the Jews is the seal of the
living God signifying His OWNERSHIP and guaranteed PROTECTION.[6] His name is literally and clearly written on
the forehead of these Evangelist.
Before the Rapture took place, THESE 144,000 Jews were already “Bond Servants” of the Most High
God, but were
not yet Believers in Jesus Christ as the Messiah.
The Anti-Christ or the New Hitler will
follow suit with his Copy Cat Corrupt, Crooked, Counterfeit seal[7] and
causes everyone to receive “THE MARK OF
THE BEAST”
(the antichrist)
signifying his “OWNERSHIP” and the
guarantee that with his MARK that they will
be able to get FOOD to EAT.[8] The Mark is
literally on the right hand or forehead of his lost UNREDEEMABLE
followers.
This is truly SAD; as THEY CANNOT CHANGE THEIR MINDS... They are doomed for
eternity[9]...
The Mark of the Anti-Christ will be something SOUGHT AFTER and HIGHLY DESIRED and will be a BADGE OF HONOR; you will be known as An Enlightened
One. It most probably will be
a tattoo worn just above the eyebrow line in the center of the forehead (the chakra point) so everyone
will know your status.
This will be known as “THE THIRD EYE”, all seeing and all knowing. This is
the “chakra point” of communication with the dark
spirit world.
A symbol already on the scene is a TRIANGLE with a SMALL CIRCLE on the inside
and a LARGE
CIRCLE on
the outside surrounding it.
No Mark of the
Beast intended here, but just an observation
The
TWO SEALS of the Tribulations
1)
The
seal of the FLESH guarantees that
those whose names are NOT written in the Book of Life will be able to Eat... (What good is it for a man to gain the whole world yet lose
his life?) [10]
2)
The
seal of the SPIRIT guarantees the “Tribulation
Saints” whose names ARE in the book of life will
be delivered...
I would be amiss if I didn’t point out that many
students of the Word Belief System embraces
that the two different Marks or SEALS are actually what you have put into your
FOREHEAD or better said, what
has been put into your MIND; the things of
the SPIRIT or the things of the WORLD; this causes the HAND to carry out
what has been SEALED in the mind.
NOTE: Some students BS also believe
a microchip implant might also be a part of this mark.
This begs the
question; are you putting the Word of God
in
your mind so that you
cannot be deceived, or is it seared over
with the ways of the World that
damns your very SOUL?
Beast
is a man
ü The sea in this
scripture is symbolic of the sea of
humanity, the Gentile
nations in chaos.[11]
ü The beast noted in
scripture is not an animal, but is a symbol of his animal-like appetites and
powers.
ü The beast, new Hitler or Antichrist is
a natural
man; he will quietly rise and becomes a ruler of one nation and
eventually becomes the political world dictator. He is a Gentile and may already be born. His time line most probably starts before the
rapture.[12]
ü
The
Antichrist beast has no normal desires for a woman, sex or
marriage and is quite possibly a homosexual.[13] He probably promotes homosexuality since God
hates it. But it could also be a slam
against women, specifically the mother of Jesus whose God is Jehovah.
ü The seven heads are symbolic of
the seven
Kingdoms he will rule.
ü The ten horns are symbolic of 10 kingdoms, some yet to be formed that he will eventually
rule. He will subdue and conquer three
of the ten.
ü The ten crowns indicate his
governmental authority over the ten kingdoms.
ü The blasphemous names on the crowns of
the puppet leaders of the Antichrist’s kingdoms are overt indicators of their
open opposition to God and Jesus Christ.
The scriptures say that those who are NOT “for God” are against God; they are of the antichrist,
and Satan.[14] The Antichrist will
use these people for his own end.[15] He will not just oppose Christ; he
substitutes himself INSTEAD of Christ; he
will rival Christ.[16] He is not a beast, creature or a spirit, but
a mortal MAN who will raise
himself up to receive the Honor due of the Son of God.[17]
Names
God’s
number is SEVEN which is
symbolic of completeness... The number 777 is God magnified to the most perfect. (For a study in biblical numbers, get the
book “Theomatics”)
Falling short of
seven
is sinful man’s number of SIX... The
Antichrist’s name is 666 , the most sinful and most evil number, magnified to its height. It is noteworthy that the
Antichrist comes at the sixth SEAL, the sixth VILE/BOWL and the sixth TRUMP of the Revelation, so of course he is
identified by the number “666”. [18]
He is described as a LEOPARD that acts with stealth, mobility and cunning speed,
a BEAR with crushing power and
a LION with a mouth that’s deadly. [19] In scripture his Names are referred to as The Man of Sin”
... “The Son of
perdition”[20] The Wicked One”[21] ...
“The Little Horn”[22] ...
“The Willful
King”[23]
and “The Beast.”[24]
The Rise
I am going to
forgo all the symbolism and MYSTERIOUS imagery presented in scripture and just tell
you in plain words how the scenario unfolds. This will paint a picture in your mind of what
all the symbolisms mean as you read the account in Revelation for
yourself. Note: while the
Revelation speaks of End Times, the SUBJECT is actually the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
Before the
Tribulation period begins, a New Hitler, a GENTILE, who could be born most anywhere, but
most probably will come from the European Union or a country or confederation
that was once part of the Roman Empire.
The Roman Empire stretched from Ireland to Egypt and included Turkey,
Iran and Iraq. He is immediately ENERGIZED by the power of Satan[25]
and will do everything according to his own selfish will[26]
The Antichrist is a “MORTAL MAN” that is totally consumed by Satan.
In my BS, I believe that he is possibly a
Gentile, connected to the tribe of
Dan as this tribe is missing from
the sealed 144,000
Evangelist as mentioned in Revelation 7:4-10; and thus
was substituted by the half tribe of Manasseh... taking Dan’s place in the lineup of the Twelve
Tribes.
Genesis 49:17 – Anti-Christ possible descendent tribe
of Dan
17 DAN will
be a serpent
by the roadside, a viper along the path that bites the horse's HEELS so
that its rider tumbles backward.
NIV
Genesis
3:15 – Prophecy; He shall bruise His heel.
15 and I will put enmity between thee and the
woman, and
between thy seed and her
seed: he shall bruise thy
head, and
THOU SHALT
BRUISE HIS HEEL. (ASV)
The Antichrist will have a three point
plan;
1)
A New World Order; mankind turns to where the “Power” comes from resulting in wholesale
occultism and devil-worship
2)
A One World Currency, where his Mark of
authority decides how you buy or sell something.
3)
A One World Religion with the Antichrist’s PROPHET as its
leader. The Antichrist, like Satan, desires to be worshiped and wants to be like god. [27]
This is happening now, watch for and understand these signs; “He who has an
ear, let him hear”.[28]
Covenant
– Peace Treaty
The Antichrist is already on
the scene, but is not yet a known world leader, but helps establish the
United States of Europe; the timetable for this is probably
There are four power groups, with Israel
considered as the geographic center of God’s Plan.
1)
The European Union and
America
is on the West and is led by the Antichrist;
2)
Then Egypt, the Arab nations on the South;
3)
Then Russia on the North and
4)
with China on
the East, leaving Israel hanging
out in the middle.
The Antichrist will
control the entire Western Block.[29] Israel is safe in her land, but is threatened
by Egypt
(South) and Russia (North). The Antichrist will
make a covenant; a Peace Treaty with
Israel to protect her land.
The Antichrist’s rule is the last 3 ½ years of the tribulation period, although is He is actually
around for the entire 7 years, being
born some 30 years prior. (My BS embraces He will be the age of Jesus)
The Antichrist will side with Israel against Russia
who backs the Arabs claim to Palestine.
The Antichrist makes the covenant of Peace just before or at the beginning of the
tribulation period to resolve the Islamic/Israeli dispute and to protect and
defend Israel.[30] The prophet Isaiah said this would be a contract with
the pit (of Hell); death.[31]
Egypt and Russia invade Palestine and the Antichrist
keeps his promise and comes to the rescue and defeats Egypt. God then defeats Russia on the mountains of
Israel.
Abomination
of Desolation
The
Temple,
it seems, must be rebuilt or at least the Holy of Holies completed
by the first 3 ½ years of the
Tribulation period, because the Levitical
“oblation
sacrifice” will be reinstated at that time. The Antichrist will allow the Jew’s to resume the
daily sacrifices
in the temple. Many will think he is the
Messiah
because he will do all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders
that will deceive “those that are perishing” because they would
not receive the truth.[32]
Then after 3 ½ years the Antichrist decides he wants Israel
for himself[33]
and breaks his peace covenant with
Israel and
STOPS the oblation
sacrifice and slanders God’s
name and then sets an image of himself up to be worshiped in the Temple defiling
the dwelling place of God[34]
and this image of the Antichrist appears to have life and can speak.[35] This is the first time he is revealed as the Antichrist
although many will suspect who he is by reason of the scriptures.
The
Book refers to him as the Son of
Lawlessness, the son of perdition and,
that man of
sin.
False World Religion
As crazy as this sounds;
The Antichrist hates
the “PROSTITUTE”; which is the powerful world
church and wants it gone so he
alone can be worshiped; he will exalt himself as God.[36]. He wants all the glory and worship for
himself, so that he can rule without any outside influence;
Note: The Antichrist will
destroy the “Religious
Babylon”,
but God totally
destroys the physical “Commercial Babylon.”
God will send a strong delusion to “the unbeliever” so that they will believe Satan’s
lies.[37] The Anti-Christ with the “Federation of Nations of Europe”
will destroy the World Church of Rome. [38]
The Antichrist rules and dominates briefly for 3 ½ years[39] using
force (HIS
MARK) to
get whatever he wants[40]
and leads the nations to conspire to battle against God… God however just LAUGHS at them.[41]
Let’s Unpack It
When
the restraining forces of the Holy Spirit and
the Church
are removed from the earth, those that remain are referred to as “Those who dwell on
Earth”.[42] They
are defined as those whose names that ARE
NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE. They follow after The Beast; The Antichrist, the New Hitler who is a mortal MAN empowered
by Satan.
The Western Block of Kings will give their
power and authority to him.[43] They will form Four Power Groups; On the West is the European Union and America; on
the South
Egypt
and the Arab
nations; on the North Russia and on the East China, leaving Israel
hanging out in the geographic center. The Antichrist will control
the entire Western Block... He is given authority over ever tribe, people,
nation and language.[44]
This New Hitler is energized by Satan
himself, not with just any power, but he is given MIGHTY Satanic Power and Satan’s own Throne which comes with Satan’s Great Authority Rights and Privileges.[45] Satan resides inside this man; he is consumed...
Understand, he has the power to command legions of Demons which
are not of flesh and blood to do his bidding... He becomes a master of Intrigue,
Insulant and Strong Faced with a personal confident authoritative
presence.
There will be an attempt to overthrow the Anti-Christ, but they
will have no idea of the satanic power that lies within him, never seeing how THIS PLAYS RIGHT INTO HIS
HANDS. He will be ASSASSINATED and receive a
grievous fatal wound that KILLS HIM. The Hebrew word
means brutally
slaughtered... He DIES... but is RESURRECTED[46]...
Imitating the Death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. As his miraculous powers are
displayed the
WHOLE WORLD marvels; they
are astonished and spellbound at his resurrection and willingly and joyfully
follow after him.
Note: Satan cannot create or give life, he can only imitate,
manipulate, masquerade, give
allusions, deceptions and lie...
He quotes the Bible; but certainly
doesn’t embrace it
Satan
is worshiped
because he gave his authority to THIS NEW HITLER; the Anti-Christ.
This is just what Satan has always wanted; TO
BE WORSHIPPED.[47] Satan
is the POWER
BEHIND THE THRONE.
The New Hitler is given a mouth of great
words, he is the Greatest Orator the
world has ever heard just like Adolf Hitler, and he will be a master of
“DOUBLE SPEAK”... In the
Hebrew, this means he will utter perplexing sayings, riddles, things that have two
meanings.
Saying one thing, but meaning another.
Beast - Anti-Christ
ü He is a mortal man; the antichrist
emerges quietly and politically out of the “SEA
OF HUMANITY”
among political powers and kings till he himself is made a king. This is where he first enters into the
political arena almost unnoticed; his
kingdom “will be different” from all the other kingdoms.
ü He is not a Robot, nor a Demon
or some kind of Beast
or a hybrid
fallen angel; He
is a mortal MAN and IS ALIVE NOW and
will come on the scene when he is about 30 years of
age; the same age as Christ when He started His ministry.
(His life will mimic, mirror or parallel that of Christ’ life.)
ü His NAME will not be
known for sure till 3 ½ years into the tribulation period when he is unleashed by Satan to do his bidding... So if you
have somebody in mind and he is over 30, forget it; don’t waste your time trying to
figure it all out because this New Hitler is
a MASTER OF INTRIGUE. Now Satan’s FALSE
PROPHET can
be over 30
and is probably of Jewish clergy living right now.
ü He will not be seen as EVIL; but seen as THE ANSWER to the Worlds
Problems. The World will see him as the greatest man
who has ever lived. He most
probably will be the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.
ü He will NOT have his miraculous powers till the Saints and the Holy Spirit who
are the restraining
force are removed from the earth via
the Rapture;
but that comes soon.
ü He will be cunning and will
destroy in an extraordinary
manner whoever and whatever gets
in his way. He will be corrupt with a new level of
persuasiveness. It will all
occur before people know what has happened.
ü He will possess courage, power, perseverance, charm, charisma, and
an awesome
speaking ability, not powered by the “Energizer Bunny” but energized by Satan
Himself.
ü He will be very smart,[48] a
commercial genius[49] a marketing
genius,[50] a
political genius,[51]
and a great orator.[52] He will be a military genius[53]
with great authority and power[54]
as well as a religious genius[55] setting
himself up as a god and most of the unsaved world will worship him. He will have great personal ambitions and
goals; and to get them;
this MAN will eventually sell his soul to Satan.
ü He
will be RELIGIOUS, but not seeking
the God of the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and perhaps might even
be a HOMOSEXUAL;[56] his God will be Power and Money.[57]
ü He starts a One World Religion with a False Prophet as its leader and like Satan, he
desires to be worshiped
and wants to
be like god.[58]
ü He will be mortally wounded in
the head and with deception come back to life.
This action authenticates his deity to the world, COUNTERFEITING
the resurrection of Christ.
ü He will speak out against the
Most High God.
ü He will change what is right and wrong. The laws of Justice will be totally
given into his hands.[59]
ü He will make alterations to the dates,
times and recognized Laws and change the
set times of worship, the feasts and
the laws.[60]
ü He will make a Peace Treaty with Israel to last Seven years[61]...
Isiah calls it a
Covenant with Hell.
ü He breaks the Covenant 3 ½ years later and then literally All hell breaks loose.
ü He stops the offerings given in the
temple and SETS UP AN IMAGE OF HIMSELF to be worshipped.[62] –
He will cause the image to speak.[63]
ü This is referred
to as “THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION”.
ü He speaks proud and boastful words and blasphemes the name
of God, Heaven and the Saints in Heaven.[64]
ü He goes after the Tribulation Saints on earth, those
that have come to the Lord during the great tribulation period and then makes war
on anybody or any religion that WORSHIPS anything but him. THE NEW HITLER,
SATAN, WANTS ALL THE WORSHIP.[65]
ü He brings down fire from the heavens
and manipulates false signs, miracles and wonders.[66] Remember Satan is the “PRINCE
OF THE POWER OF THE AIR”[67]...
Hurricanes, Rain, Winds and Lightning are at his command.
THE REST OF
THE STORY... The 7 years of tribulations; Satan and his angels are cast out of heaven. Need a mark to buy or sell
– Worship the beast or die – World war III
with Russia and Israel – Widespread famine – One half of humanity dies
– Great Earthquakes - Cities & mountains
leveled - Islands disappear Fire and Stars fall to earth – 100 pound hail – Stinging
locust - Painful sores – Sea and Rivers turn red as blood – Intense heat – Battle
of Armageddon – and other fun stuff.
THE BEGINNING...
At the beginning of the Tribulation period,
The Antichrist, IMPERSONATING Christ comes
riding in on a white horse.
At the end of the tribulation period in contrast,
the rider on the
white horse is our faithful and true Savior, Jesus the Christ,
riding
triumphantly with His army; the OT saints, the raptured Church and the angels.[68]
God reaches out to His remnant Israel
“The rest of her offspring” as
referred to in scripture is the remnant of
Israel. God reaches out a second time to
reclaim His people and breathes life back into them.[69] (Dem bone, dem bones; dem dry bones; now hear the word of the Lord) The remnant of
Israel has accepted God and
His Son, the Lamb.
Satan in great fury immediately goes forth
to destroy all of them. “The Serpent spewed water like a river” is
symbolic of Satan pulling out all the stops on his evil organ to destroy the
nation of Israel, trying to make it impossible for God to keep His
promises. The believing
remnant is forced into hiding
by the Antichrist.
The Antichrist being
a great orator will speak and flatter the nations to get them to reveal where
the Jews are hiding, but the multitudes do not listen.
Whether by angels or nature, there
will be a supernatural intervention that protects Israel.
Revelation 12:15-16 – Satan tries to kill the
believing Jews
15 Then from his
mouth the
serpent spewed water like a river, to overtake the woman and sweep
her away with the torrent.
16 BUT THE EARTH HELPED THE WOMAN by opening its
mouth and swallowing
the river that the dragon had spewed
out of his mouth. NIV
The Take Away
There is some good news in all of this.
The Believer will
not be here when the New Hitler; the Antichrist is finally REVEALED[70] although he may
already be alive during our lifetime. At
the Rapture
God withdraws the
Holy Spirit who “dwells in us”
from the earth, so we get to go with Him. The Rapture will
separate
and remove
us from “THOSE WHO
DWELL ON THE EARTH”;[71]
those whose names are NOT written in THE BOOK OF LIFE.[72]
THE RAPTURE DOCTRINE is only about
200 years old and was NOT KNOWN NOR TAUGHT by the early church, however it is not
something to scoff at. Whether your BS embraces
it or not, you should pray that there is a Rapture... but live your life like there is NOT one.
There are no new prophecies, but there is new enlightenment as God
through the
Holy Spirit reveals and illuminates those who study his Word and
unlocks the treasures that have be stored away “for such a time as this”.[73] We don’t have to work for our Salvation; we
just “RECEIVE” it.
Jesus HOLDS US... PLUS the Father HOLDS US... BOOKENDS with US in
the middle... Secure
Antichristos means Against or INSTEAD of Christ... An
enemy of Christ... One who usurps Christ’s name, authority and rights.... There are many “little” antichrists; but only one Antichrist.[74]
Definition
Antichrist: A man who denies that Jesus is the Christ...[75] Denies the
Father and the Son... This is the
rejection of Christ with heretical teachings and views concerning His
person.
Scripture infers that the Antichrist will be a Gentile coming POLITICALLY and his false prophet will be a Jew
coming THEOLOGICALLY.
The followers of THE WAY were well aware
of the teaching that all the forces of opposition to Christ would finally come
together and center in the one man
called the Antichrist. Paul taught that the Antichrist will oppose God and
actually exalt himself above God and sit in the temple and claim to be God. He will
perform great signs and wonders deceiving all those who have rejected God’s
Son.
Christ warned that there would be false Christ’s and
false
prophets that would come, who
would try to deceive even the ELECT; the believer, if
that were possible.[76]
The Thessalonians were under the erroneous impression that “THE DAY OF THE LORD” was at hand
1)
A
falling away from the Church, and
2)
The
revealing of the identity of the “Lawless One”; the Antichrist.
The Term “The Day of the Lord”[77]
is not the Sabbath,
but is when God will destroy the works of Satan and redeem mankind. Paul taught that that the “Secret Power of
Lawlessness” was already at work in the world. He was re-directing there attention away from
“the last days”
to what was going on NOW in the church...
He was pointing to those “little” antichrists that already exist whose temper,
attitude and characteristics were subverting the Gospel. They were in essence doing the work of the
actual Antichrist
with doctrinal
error.
Paul did not see
the world as one day evolving into a more PERFECT state,
but rather
evolving into more and more of an EVIL state
until finally, “The Day of the Lord”
would right it all.
Many political foes have referred to their
opponent as the Antichrist;
we still do that today, so the sayings are “taken
with a grain of salt” and are not considered serious. We
should not so much be concerned about the end of time, but with identifying FALSE TEACHERS [78] that are creeping
into our lives TODAY teaching the “inclusion of
Using deceitful terms such as “Gay Pride” and “Alternate Lifestyle” for living
a life that is an abomination to God.[79] Terms like “Pro Choice” for murdering babies.
According to God, a doctor that performs
abortions is a MASS MURDERER. It’s going to be “Hell to pay” for those who call evil
good and good evil.[80]
Relationship:
The Antichrist will be to Satan what Jesus is
to God. The Antichrist’s power will come from Satan[81]
just as Jesus’
power comes from God
and the Antichrist’s
supporting False
Prophet will fulfill the role of
the supporting Holy
Spirit culminating with their UN-HOLY TRINITY.
Satan is furious; Satan, the Antichrist
and the False
Prophet ALL THREE know that their time is short and are “mad as hell”.[82]
The Satanic
Trinity
Satan also
known as
The Dragon - The
Father
Antichrist also known as
The Beast out of the Sea - The Son
False Prophet also
known as
The Beast out of the Earth – The Spirit
Sad Ending
THIS IS SAD, but in the end, God will send a powerful delusion to “those that remain in the earth”; those whose names are NOT written
in the Book of Life; so that they will believe Satan’s lie[83]
that they have so sought after. – They get what they want.
The New Hitler, the Antichrist will stand
up against Jesus Christ and try to prevent His return; but he will be destroyed
and not by human hands. He is crushed in
the battle
of Armageddon[84] and
is the first to be thrown into the lake of fire along with the false prophet.[85] Paul teaches that in the finality of things;
God will destroy the Antichrist and the little antichrists with just the breath of
His mouth.[86]
This is the end of the Antichrist, but not the
story.
Life is choice driven;
I wouldn’t wait too long or you will believe the lie and that would be SAD. God
has given us His Letter to show us THE WAY back
to the TREE
OF LIFE.
We mourn over
the souls that will be separated from God for eternity.[87]
It’s
in the Book.
I have
only painted a picture here of what the Anti-Christ; this New Hitler will be like and who he is. If you want more of the gory details, and all
the meanings of all the symbolism, read; NYOBS 21.18 ANTICHRIST -- NYOBS 22.09 ARMAGEDDON -- NYOBS 35.16 144,000; THE MARK --
