Rev 6:2 is not about the Antichrist.

Do a deep dive of the original language and stick to scriptural hermeneutics and you will see that this idea of it being the antichrist is wrong.

There is nothing to even show that the first rider is the Antichrist.

I dont want to go deep into it.

Don't you understand symbolic language when you hear it?

I have a way with words, and I have some time on my hands. If you have a writing job for me to do for you, I'll be glad to do it. In case you would like to look at my past works, click the following links;

I couldn't read what you wrote.Im kinda sleepy, but the antichrist is more than a person or a religion. it's a system and idea that negates the institutions of God. This system could come in form of a person , religion, movement, party or popular opinion etc but all of these are just expressions of this system called Antichrist.

While yes, the Bible says something about Antichrist systems that operate with an Antichrist spirit, the Bible specifically states that a PHYSICAL PERSON (FLESH AND BLOOD) will come in future called the Antichrist, who will oppose all that Jesus stands for.
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that MAN OF SIN be revealed, the SON OF PERDITION;

Revelation 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

I could go on. There are A LOT OF PROPHECIES ABOUT A PHYSICAL, FLESH AND BLOOD, ANTICHRIST in Daniel and Revelations 13.

I believe all antichrists are those who do not love their neighbours and their enemies moreso. They will say "Lord, Lord" but will be teeth gnashers.

The Bible doesn't say that about any Antichrist.
1 John 4:1-3
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

That's the major criteria for the Antichrist to fulfill.

Hello everyone. During the COVID lockdown, with all the conspiracy theories that flew around, I did a study of the end time Bible prophecies (something I've always been fascinated with), just so I could find out what was really going on.
My study led to the creation of a blog, where I talk about the end times and Bible prophecy.
While everyone has been looking forward to the revealing of a European Antichrist, I stumbled on Joel Richardson's work during my study, and I began to wonder about the possibilities of an Islamic Antichrist. The following is an excerpt from the series I started about this topic;

When we think of opposites, we think of things that are not the same at all. In fact, they stand in opposition to each other. For example, big and small, or white and black. They are in opposition. I believe it's the same with Islam and Judeo-Christianity (I called it that because I believe they are almost the same. You can read the last article I wrote to see the reason why I say so). One word we use in English to showcase opposition is the word anti. The word "anti" means against, or in opposition or in place of. I guess I should stop the long words and cut to the chase.

Allow me to state my thesis: could it be possible that the Antichrist (who has been prophecied to come in scripture) would be a Muslim and set up an Islamic Caliphate? a Muslim and set up an Islamic Caliphate?

There, I outlined in greater detail, with quotes from both the Bible, Koran and respected Imams, and comparisons between the coming Mahdi prophesied by Muslims and the future Antichrist prophesied in the Bible.

My point is this:
- I believe the future Antichrist will be Muslim.
- I don't believe it was a coincidence that there are only three monotheistic religions on earth, and two of them are similar (Judaism and Christianity), while the other is in direct opposition to the other two though they claim to worship the same God.
- I believe the church might be making a mistake in their eschatology, and it could prove costly eventually.

Can we discuss this please?
