ANTICHRIST


Too much ado is made about the fact that the word Anti-Christ appears only a few times in the BIBLE. (I JOHN 2:18, I JOHN 2:22, I JOHN 4:3, AND 2 JOHN 1:7)Yet, the term 'born again' appears just as many times, yet entire denominations have sprung up around the phase.  So, let us not major in the minors, but rather get on to the Scripture.

The Anti-Christ is "the beast" in the
Book of Revelation Desiring to mock GOD THE FATHER, the beast is the incarnation of the lies of Satan in one man.

Spiritual logic would dictate that 'the beast' will be of Jewish origin - for the Jews would never be deceived into accepting a Gentile (a non-Jew) as their MESSIAH. In fact, since even the ancient Scribes and Pharisees believed that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem, it would be logical to state that the Anti-Christ will be born in Bethlehem. Due to the signs and the seasons, it is quite reasonable to believe that he IS ALIVE TODAY!

Most likely he will be a political figure, a military figure, and and a psuedo-religious figure all rolled into one.  From his mouth will come lies about 'peace', when inwardly he will be planning the destruction of man.

From the tumult and destruction caused by the judgments of GOD THE FATHER that have pulverized the earth, 'the beast', with lies and false miracles
(Rev. 13:13 "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on earth in the site of men.") will rise to a position of world control and power. However, it may well be that the 'rise' of the Anti-Christ would rather be a retreat as the Body of Christ, before the rapture, presses him on all sides.

 

 

He deceives mankind into making an image of himself and demands worship of it.  Those who fail to worship the image will be sacrificed - murdered.

 


The Anti-Christ will broker a peace treaty with the nation of Israel, most likely allowing the Jews to rebuild their temple.  (Yet remember that hatred of the Jews is Satan's hallmark, for it was from the Jews that came JESUS CHRIST.

The beast will speak blasphemous things against GOD THE FATHER.  He will institute an economic regime in which no one can buy or sell without his mark, known infamously as 'THE MARK OF THE BEAST - 666' Those who accept this mark will declare their eternal hatred for GOD THE FATHER.

1 John 3:8, we read, "FOR THIS PURPOSE WAS THE SON OF GOD MANISFESTED (MADE KNOWN) - TO DESTROY THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL."

The destroyer of souls will meet the only one who can destroy him.  He will muster the armies of this earth with all their explosive military power at a place known in the Scriptures as ARMAGEDDON quite possibly the literal plain of Megiddo located in Israel.  Then shall appear THE LORD JESUS CHRIST - THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH - riding a white horse and leading the armies of heaven to do battle with the Anti-Christ and his forces.  The result of this confrontation will be a no-contest.  The power of GOD will desciminate the enemy.  It will be like a super sharp lawnmower hitting a single blade of grass.  The Anti-Christ wont have a chance.

The angels of heaven will seize him and his false prophet and both will be cast into the lake of fire.
(REV. 19:20).  SATAN, father of Anti-Christ, will be chained and cast into the bottomless pit where he shall remain for 1000 years (REV. 20:3)

 

 



After recovering from a fatal wound, most likely a head wound,  he will even prevail against the "Two Witnesses".

His reign will last but 1260 days - three and one-half years.  The the Anti-Christ, the destroyer of souls, will more than meet his match.  For as his father the Devil walks around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour, he will meet a larger, far more ferocious lion -THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH - THE LORD JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF.  There was a purpose behind the first coming of our LORD JESUS CHRIST:


THE ANTI-CHRIST WILL TRY TO MIMIC JESUS IN EVERY WAY. YOU CAN EXPECT HIM TO HAVE A GENEOLOGY TRACING HIMSELF BACK TO JESUS HIMSELF. THIS MAY EXPLAIN THE CURRENT HERESY OF JESUS BEING MARRIED TO MARY MAGDELENE. ALSO, ANTI-CHRIST WILL FALSELY PROMOTE HIMSELF TO BE THE FULFILLMENT OF OLD TESTAMENT PROPHECY.
