Anas09:

There is the SPIRIT OF THE ANTICHRIST and there is the PERSON OF THE ANTICHRIST.

The Spirit of the Antichrist is already heavily at work in the sons and daughters of disobedience, but the Son of Satan shall reign and rule on this earth in person.

Just like God sent Jesus here, satan shall also send the Beast here. He shall reign supreme doing as he likes killing everyone who opposes him.

He will begin his reign with deceptive policies of fixing the World Peace. He shall favour Israel. He shall be trusted because whatever he touches shall work out well.

His people are at work now causing this chaos, when he comes, everyone shall step aside while he pretends to fix things, hence; shine like the star. it is this shining that will deceive many to take his side ultimately taking his Mark.

When he shall mount himself on the rebuilt Jerusalem's Temple demanding worship from the Jews, is when trouble will begin, because it won't happen.


Hmmm, trouble is ahead of Mankind.

Islam is Satan's own religion. He swore to also sit like the Most High and be worshipped. who do you think was going to worship him as God? Man. not Angels. Angels do not worship fellow Angels.

Only man was created to worship, so his focus is man. Satan had to form his own religion lying to them that he is God. Muslims really believes that Allah is God, even with the evil it propagates.

Something deep inside of me tells me, God left the Asian region for satan. Apostle Paul tried to take the Gospel to Asia, Jesus won't let him, i wonder why.

Look at the Asian and the Oriental Nations today, Christianity is fiercely resisted even after 2000 yrs.

Well, i read where an author projecting the Asian Church, to be the Endtime Church Army. I don't know. He may be right because of the rise of the underground Church in China and other places.

Hmmmnnn! This is quite revealing. You touched a lot of things in one go:

Spirit of Antichrist
Person of Antichrist
Chaos
Peace
Demand for worship of the beast in the temple
Roles of Islam
Christianity and its struggle in Asia unlike elsewhere

nwabekeyi:
Before Jesus, nations has always risen against nations, read the old testament to see proof...

Truth, of course.

And even after Jesus, nations have always risen against other nations. In fact human conflict would never end.

Remember this is one out of many signs and implicitly only signals the beginning, and not even the middle of sorrows.

Anas09:

You are not alone. I am a Prophecy watcher too.

May be wrong tho, but this is my take.

You know, looking at the Propheshies, no where was it stated that Christianity will rule like a government on earth without Jesus physically being present.

[/color][/b]Truth. Not until the beast, Antichrist, and Lucifer is defeated.[color=#006600][b]

The Church was to take the Gospel to the world, while fierce persecution rises against her. Persecution is what scatters Gospel carriers, and as they run, they run with the Gospel to where ever they went spreading it. It wasn't meant to be kept somewhere for people to travel to to get it.

But, in the Mediaeval era, the Catholic Church tried to truncate the Gospel and lock it up in Rome. The Church became a political ideology. She lost her power and became tradition. The Catholic Church reigned supreme. Everything was Catholic. She fought against Science, fought against any other development that wasn't Catholic.

PLS note that, The Bible says at the last days 'Knowledge shall increase', as a result, many will fall away from the Faith. Look around you and see how knowledge has increased with the scientific inventions. This was what the Catholic Church tried to truncate. The word of God must come to pass.

There was need for liberation, then came the Renaissance. This Era was orchestrated by Scientists but it wasn't properly managed, it erupted to the World Wars.

Now, the second World War ushered in the Modern age of Science. An era of revolt. A whole lot of Rights of this and rights to that came forth after the Second World War. Every one and every thing wanted rights and they had them. Christianity also had the freedom to move out of Rome to the World. It ceased from being an ideology to a powerful cohesive family again.

[/color] [/b]God always has a way to bring to pass His words. Anybody and anything can be used to fulfill it, sometimes without the entity knowing. Just like Judas Iscariot fulfilled his part in ignorance.[color=#006600] [b]


So, in essence, the Second World War ushered in the Rebellion which works to enthrone the abomination the causes Desolations (The reign of the Antichrist). [/color][/b]Is this the same as mentioned in Luke 21: 20, Mark 13:14. [color=#006600][b]


The Spirit of the Antichrist is very much operational on earth today and very much evident here in Nairaland, visibly seen in the activities of those who say there's no God.

They believe in Science (even when science is not opposed to God, they made it so), they say there's no God, yet stands for everything satan stands for. They make a case for him and project his ideologies.

They work tirelessly to approve perversion and sin because that is what the Beast government will do. [/color][/b]Yes, that's true. Immorality, perversion, weirdness and excessive or rather abuse of freedom is now more popular, acceptable and glorified in today's world. This strange liking for darkness, magical things, weirdness is permeating schools which is the budding ground and first place of instructions on morals after family's. Hollywood and musical is another strong tool to project this weird trend. And since God has been left out in Schools what do we have?[color=#006600][b]

This is their age.

Anas09:

Wtong. Very wrong. Jesus Came for the whole world and He spoke to the whole world.

And, He is the Prince of Peace. there's no peace outside of Him

Why is there no peace in the world? 3 where is there still oppression and death and why has men not beaten their swords into ploughshares and why is the wolf and kid not lying together just as isaiah said they would when the messiah comes...

EagleNest:
Personally, I am always keen in understanding the signs of the time from bible perspective.

I am equally drawn more to the words of Jesus Christ concerning these events and keep my eyes on it. These things will happen before His 2nd coming back to this world.

I have been looking intently on Matthew 24:51, Mark 13:1-37 and Luke 21:5-36 which repeated these accounts in similar order of key events but with some slight variations in details.

I am particularly struck by a key sign in Luke 21:20 where Jesus Christ said " But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near". This is sort of written in codes to me in Matthew 24:15 and Mark 13:14 where they wrote" so when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the Prophet..."

This "abomination of desolation" words has been a bit challenging to understand until recently when Luke 21:20 clears it out for me.

Looking at the present scenarios in middle east and Syria in particular, the proxy wars, the aggregation of many armies, the Palestinian demonstrations and Israel response, the planned move of Israel embassy to Jerusalem, rise and fall of ISIS, etc, is anyone thinking like I do that it looks like the fulfilment of Luke 21:20 is imminent considering the recent happenings.

I have asked myself severally how did the world wars 1 & 2 align with end of time events considering that it is a world defining events that affected many. I have not clearly pieced it together. Do anyone know more?

Where do American leadership fits in?

America in Prophecy! Hmmmm. Let's see.

Let's begin with the dream YHWH gave to Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel 2.

An Image represented the world kingdoms/empires or governments which shall rule the earth before the Millennial reign of Christ.

We are told that, first the head of the Image (gold), represented the very King Nebuchadnezzar himself. He ruled supreme, no opposition. Not even the Assyria Empire could match it in any way.

The second Kingdom was to be (Silver), the Chest and hands part of the Image. It shall be great, but as silver is lesser in value to gold, it shall be lesser in power and influence to Babylon.

And we saw the Medo/Persian Empire (Macedonia and Persia) which joined forces to pull down Babylon.

The third Empire was made of Brass. This consisted of the waist and the thighs of the Image. Of course nah, Brass is lesser than silver, so, the Kingdom shall not be as strong as it's successor.

Within the Medo-Persian Empire, Daniel made us to understand that another King shall arise and take power by force, overthrowing the existing King on the throne.

The Fourth Kingdom of Iron. Alexander the Great.

And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
Daniel:2:40

Dan 7:7- 8
And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.

Historically, we see Alexander the Great, (The He Goat), an illegitimate son of Emperor Philip, (Not heir to the throne), Charged against King Darius (The Ram) the ruling Emperor, killed him took over the throne. He was so strong Darius could not withstand him.

Alexander the Great did very great. No kingdom could withstand him. He finished his War Career at 32, at his prime. (When he was strong), his great horn was broken, his power failed and he died.

Before his death, he divided his kingdom into four Kingdoms and placed his Four Generals over each.

Dan 7: 8b and for it (His Kingdom) came up four notable ones

And the prophecy was fulfilled as Alexander divided his kingdom into 4 and gave them to...
1. Cassander.

2. Lysimachus.

3. Seleuxus, and

4. Ptolemy.

Now, these 4 Generals forgot to rule, but were busy fighting themselves and terrorizing their people.

Alexander the Great had squashed off the Persian axis of the Empire, all his Generals were Greeks. From one of 4 kingdoms, the Roman Empire rose up.

Daniel 8:9 -11
And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.

And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.
Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of the sanctuary was cast down.
Daniel:8:11

If you read carefully, you'd see the activities of the Roman Empire in the above scriptures.

Out of one of the 4 Generals, the Roman Empire rose, and, it dealt severely and cast the stars (The saints) down and stamped on them. The Roman Empire persecuted Christians fiercely and succeeded in doing so.

The Roman Empire destroyed the Jewish Temple which led to the cessation of the Jewish Daily sacrifices till today, as the Jews can not offer their sacrifices except in the Temple.

Where do American leadership fits in?

Now, according to Daniel 2:41 The last Empire to rule the earth which a Stone shall be cut off and crush it and a wind sweeps it away and take its place shall be a mixture of Iron and Clay.

And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.


Can you see any pattern there? Can you See America in that Verse?

Now, The last kingdom is on going right now, and it's called, the United Nations and America is calling the shots there, or at least it was until lately.

The UN is a body mixed with strong and weak Nations. And, as Iron is stronger than Clay, they can not hold themselves in any cohesive agreement, hence, the disagreement going on there.

America is Seemingly the Head of the UN, the Headquarter is there. Everyone wants to go to America. If America says, It's okay for Men to Marry men, everyone is expected to say yes.

If you are educated and it wasn't any of the renown American Universities you attended, you'd need to go back to Harvard.

If you are a musician and you do not associate with America, your Career is still up coming. All roads leads to America. She is the deciding voice in the last Empire.

Now, watch. Revelation 13:11 says

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

You and i knows that, there is only ONE nation on earth that appears on the world stage "lamb like" ('Christian') but ends up "speaking as a dragon", and has the power and influence to cause the rest of the world to take the mark of the 'sea beast' - And that nation is AMERICA!

America wasn't populated until the 1700's when people fleeing the persecuting power of the Roman Catholic Church headed for this new land, so they could practice religious freedom away from the Papacy. Remember the Catholic Church took over the Persecution of those who believed in the Bible, this caused Christians flee and wherever they went, they took the gospel.

So many settled in the Newly discovered land of America and began with Christianity. The Tradition of Thanksgiving goes back to the first one year anniversary of planting and harvesting crops in the New land.

America became a recognized world power by 1798, when the Pope was arrested and locked up.

America began 'lamb like', Jesus Christ and His principles, but when she grew and had a voice to speak, she spoke with the voice of a dragon.

Revelation 12, We see a Dragon persecuting the woman, 'the Church'.

In the American Currency you'd find 'In God we trust, but in the same currency later on the satanic symbol
the pyramid was included.

Acted as though she is for God. but working for satan.

All Corporations working behind the scene to project the principles of the Spirit of the Antichrist are headquartered in America.


America will not produce the Antichrist, but, she will head the campaign against anyone who will not take the Mark.

Did you watch Mark Zuckabergs Senate hearing? Did you hear how Facebook is used to monitor peoples movement. activities, medical records. financial dealings against peoples knowledge? The most fearful part of it is that, whether you are a Subscriber of Facebook or not, if you enter a page that subscribes to facebook, they pick your activities and begin monitoring your movements every where.

When the Bible said, we shall not be able to buy and sell without the Mark of the Beast, some people say, how can that be?

America is coming with a lot of monitoring devices to keep track of people.

I saw an interview where a TV company is now producing SmartTVs with hidden Cameras. You buy it into your home, you wacth programs, but you are watched from the Camera. The most fearful part of it is. whether or not the TV is on, they can watch you.

The reign of America and her United Nation's counterparts shall end the Seven years reign of the Person of the Antichrist, then Jesus will step in, grind them to power and sweep them all off and establish his eternal Kingdom.

If i was a Jewish Boy vast in the Tanak, i will know that the Messiah promised to Adam, Abraham, Jacob, through Moses, and all the other prophets was a Spiritual Messiah not political. because, what occasioned the promise of the Messiah was not a political breakdown, but a Spiritual.
SIN.

If i was a boy vast in the Tanak, I'd know not to anticipate and preempt YHWH. He is the Lord.
Like any Jew, i will wait to here the Next prophecy which will come.

If i was a Jewish Boy vast in Tanak, going by what I have already known from the former prophecies, i would know that a Son will be born, that Son will be killed and that Son is the Messiah first and foremost, then be attentive to hear what next is coming. I will not expect that YHWH will give me all His thoughts of the future at once, because that's not how He works. If YHWH is under any obligation to reveal all his thoughts to one man at once, we won't have many prophets spread over the centuries.


The Birth and death of Christ is recorded in the old testament, the white throne judgement is also there, but the Jews will rather, it's all political. Well, it's not.

Can i come in?

I think you are asking the wrong question. This question is like the Muslims asking, 'Where did Jesus say, I am God worship me?'. What you as an outsider do not know is that YHWH does not explain or tell anyone what His next move will be.

YHWH did not in plain terms say the Messiah will come twice, that is because, He is not under any obligation to do so.

To Moses, He gave visions to see what happened in the Past, while the John, He gave visions to see the far future.

It'll be the duty of the parent of the Jewish boy who is expected to know how their God operates to tell his son, 'Don't conclude with YHWH', because another prophet may just come up with new prophecies.

Is their a prophet greater than Jesus Christ, whose sandal John the Baptist said he is not worth fit to untie.

Jesus has come first time to fulfill some of the prophecies of the old testament but told us what will happen in future when he leaves the earth.

You don't need to rewind back to Malachi whose generations have all gone, when in fact your own generation is experiencing the "Revelations" effects.

This is the problem Jews had and still have today. They read their laws, prophecies, Torah, etc and forget what time it is.

Lack of understanding lead them to persecute the same messiah who has come according to the prophecies they read.

No, it's not the way want or expect it. They expected a warrior Messiah but got a Shepherd Messiah. Nope, it cannot be and the killed Him. Again prophecy fulfilled.

And today someone will tell me Christ is not coming again. Why? Because it was not apparently spelt out in old testament. Wise up and keep watch. The way of man is not same with God.

Awesome and very interesting writeup. Makes a lot of sense to me. America is in deed double-faced. Allows Christianity to flourish but at the same time allows Satanism/darkness to flourish as well. No wonder Christ said if the day of His coming is shortened none would be saved but for elect's sake it will be. This is a classical case of Wheat and Tare growing together.

The most alarming to me was the national and international recognition and legalisation of homosexuality, championed by Obama govt. I felt so sorry that humanity has descended so low to debase themselves in the name of liberty and directly opposing God. Lustful desires of a bunch of minority engulfing the wide world like wild fire is not ordinary.

Hollywood is one of the industries bringing to wide audience despicable things to both children, youth and adults. Sometimes I wonder what the next generations will do, if today we are this wild and seemingly uncontrollable in our freedom.

What a race we are running?

I have experienced many sides of religion. From traditional, Orthodox, Jewish to Pentecostal. I have friends in Islam, Hindu and Buddha.

I did not find it difficult to know the truth. It is not what one tells you at the alter per se, but more of what you experience. Spiritual encounters. If you have not, you'll struggle to understand.

Exactly, how Saul who latter became Apostle Paul was passionate about Judaism. He goes on persecution crusades crushing Christians until he had an encounter with Jesus and his eyes of understanding opened.

Take a moment a reflect on Christianity. It is founded by Christ and would never be crushed to dust until His coming. You can persecute it. You can war against it but it never be crushed.

There are variants: orthodox, celestial worshippers, Mary mother of Christ apologist, Living creature in heaven (seraphim) worshippers, Pentecostal, etc..

In the Pentecostal alone, there are innumerable.

In all these, time will come when the wheat will be separated from the tares, at the harvest time. By the way it's someone that sowed the tares. But all will grow until the time.

It's sign of the time that this post is all about not the trivials of whose variant of worship of God is right. At the right time we'll know.

Who do God want as worshippers? Those who worship Him in truth and Spirit. These are the ones he has adopted as sons. And not only sons but joint heir with Christ.

Let's leave the trivial and focus on what will benefit all as we run the race for eternal life. Don't forget to keeo watch. Herein lies wisdom.

Awesome and very interesting writeup. Makes a lot of sense to me. America is in deed double-faced. Allows Christianity to flourish but at the same time allows Satanism/darkness to flourish as well. No wonder Christ said if the day of His coming is shortened none would be saved but for elect's sake it will be. This is a classical case of Wheat and Tare growing together.

The most alarming to me was the national and international recognition and legalisation of homosexuality, championed by Obama govt. I felt so sorry that humanity has descended so low to debase themselves in the name of liberty and directly opposing God. Lustful desires of a bunch of minority engulfing the wide world like wild fire is not ordinary.

Hollywood is one of the industries bringing to wide audience despicable things to both children, youth and adults. Sometimes I wonder what the next generations will do, if today we are this wild and seemingly uncontrollable in our freedom.

What a race we are running?

Thanks a lot for the insight.

The Antichrist shall be Gay. These people are sponsored by satan to institutionalize the Antichrist's sexul preference.

Remember he is Anti everything God?

Dan 11:27. He (the Antichrist) shall not have the desire of women'.


Anyone you see in support of these depravity has the spirit of the Antichrist operating in them.
