"the stars of the sky fell to the earth…"

“ Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false.”- 2 Thess. 2:11

I grew up Catholic. Eventually we stopped going to Mass, I never got that involved with the Church. However I did recognize my God on the walls, I did hear his voice in the rafters. Next when I was around middle school age I began reading the bible on my own. Along with that I use to watch TBN on TV the Christian channel as it was the only Christian content I could really get ahold of at the time besides the bible itself. Around that time I picked up a Left Behind book Armageddon. I read how it was a Christian book and I felt this urge to not be called a Catholic, but a Christian.

I didnt read all the left behind series but from TBN and Christian content I did pick up a lot of what was believed about the end times from the evangelical point of view including that of the Anti-Christ. How the Anti-Christ was a politician who was loved, who was young and European. It is funny how the American church never considered that they were the new Rome and that the Anti-Christ might be the leader of this New Rome and not the weakened Europeans. It was always the European young charming loved by all “Anti-Christ”.

First of all let me clear up what I believe are some of the most common misconceptions about the Anti-Christ.

1. He is loved by all
2. He is young and attractive
3. He is European
4. He is Middle Eastern
5. He is the Jewish modern messiah
6. He is the Islamic Mahdi

All of those are not found in scripture. There is nothing in scripture that mentions or hints at the age or nationality of the Anti-Christ. Nothing that says he comes from the Middle East, nothing that says he comes from Islam or Judaism. In fact it says quite the opposite. And as far as the first point, that it is believed everyone in the world will love him is at best a misinterpretation.

I will start with what I see as the biggest misconception of the Anti-Christ, that he is loved by all and where it comes from in scripture.

³ “One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast. ⁴ And they worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it?” – Revelation 13:3-4

“And authority was given it over every tribe and people and language and nation, ⁸ and all who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain.” – Revelation 13:7-8

Revelation 13 is one of the main scriptures in regards to the Anti-Christ and most people get lost right from the start. First you have to realize which section of Revelation chapter 13 is. Much of Revelation is John reporting what he is seeing in Heaven. Where as other parts like chapters 4-9 are alternate kind of vision which may overlap with the rest of what He see’s and should not be taken as literally. Chapter 12 is The Women and the Dragon which resides in the symbolic visual vision to tell the story of the Dragon Satan and his response to Christ entering the world. It shows the women who is the nation of Israel giving birth to the Messiah who is then called up to Heaven. Chapter 12 ends with the Dragon standing on the shore of the Sea. Which is to symbolize Satan standing between the spiritual and physical realms. He brings up two beasts, the first we know as the Anti-Christ from the Sea. The Second Beast we call “The False Prophet” which rises from the land. Both of which are symbolized visually as Beasts with different attributes.

This is where the problem resides. Yes, the First Beast is the Anti-Christ and yes the Anti-Christ is a man. However the Anti-Christ, this First Beast of Rev 13 is also more than a man. Just as Jesus Christ was a man but also the living embodiment of the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus being the incarnate God, representing a much bigger Kingdom and Holy Spirit within him.

So to the Anti-Christ man is the embodiment of something greater than himself. The Man of Lawlessness from 2 Thess. 2 is the Anti-Christ man of Rev 13 and Daniel 9 is the incarnation of the Anti-Christ spirit and is not in of himself singular.

¹⁸ “Children, it is the last hour, and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come. Therefore we know that it is the last hour.” – 1 John 2:18

So when we read that the Beast is worshipped by all the world it does not mean that everyone will love the Anti-Christ man. What it means is what it says, “All whose name were not written in the Book of Life will worship the Beast.” It also says they will worship the Dragon. How can they worship the Dragon if they do not see the Dragon or even know of his existence? Because what God was meaning was you are either on Christ Jesus side, or you are opposing him and on the side of the Anti-Christ spirit which resides in everyone who does not worship Christ and thus are not in the Book of Life. You cannot serve two masters, you serve Christ or in fact you do serve the opposition to Christ. There is no scripture that says the Man of Lawlessness is universally loved. It’s a misunderstanding and misinterpretation of Revelation 13.

What will clear up the confusion of what the Anti-Christ spirit truly is you will find in Daniel 2. To Nebuchadnezzars vision of the statue. What does Daniel say of the vision? It is of you the head of Gold, Babylon and the successive Kingdoms that follow after you until ultimately these empires of men fall to the Stone that is Christ Jesus Kingdom that will never end.

What I am proposing to you, which will clear many things up is that Daniel 2′ vision is of the Anti-Christ spirit which Satan brought up as a way to counter Jesus Christ. Yes Satan began his plan before Jesus came in the flesh. In fact God began his plan of Salvation through Jesus you could say when he called Abraham to go to Canaan historically around 1920–2000 BC. The first of these empires was Babylon which began around the year 1800 BC. Two different plans, one of God’s and one of Satan’s.

Satan’s plan was to bring about successive nations who would have power over the world and over the Jewish people and the land of Israel.

It is not just me who believes this, most evangelical’s also believe along the similar lines but I’ll show you where they went wrong and where I mean to correctly interpret.

In total there are seven kingdoms. Three of which individual and two of which are divided.

1.Babyloon

2. & 3. Medo-Persian

4. Greece

5. Rome

6 & 7 Revived Roman Empire.

Now what I saw as an early Christian in evangelical circles is the predominant belief you will see in Christian churches. That the last split kingdom in world history before Christ’s Millennial and Eternal reign is Europe. Because of the materials it says one is clay and one is iron. Previously Rome was the Iron so they conclude this new empire will be a revived Rome. They are right in a way and yet wrong.

What I conclude, is that the last empire of men before Jesus returns is the United States and Europe. Remember it is a split kingdom, and they mold together. The United States is the Iron and Europe is the soft clay which was once mighty. We see in our day today that this alliance is crumbling and the one behind it all is the American President.

So this is what I believe encompases the vision of Daniel 2 which is the full Beast of Nations that is the Anti-Christ spirit. Babylon, Medo-Persian, Greece, Rome, United States and Europe aka the NATO military alliance. Historically, physically, geographically, socially we are a split empire or as we call it, alliance.

I think it comes down to indoctrination, misinterpretation and pride as to why American’s just can’t understand that they are New Rome, that they are the New Babylon. We have been indoctrinated to believe we are the city on the hill. That we are the moral compass and the goodness that spreads to the world. This is a totally American way of thinking and it is why we did not search the scriptures in honesty and why God did not give us the clarity through the Spirit to see that the Anti-Christ spirit rules through our nation. This patriotism blinded the church in America. While we awaited the new Kingdom of Christ we built an idol made of gold. Our idol became our politics, our comfort, our wealth.

How could we see the Anti-Christ man coming when we move at the whims of the Anti-Christ spirit? Trading goodness for power. We picked political sides and let it infect everything about us. We pretended God had a side, left or right or that he was a color to be assigned. We became like Judas who betrayed the LORD in order to get him do what we wanted to do. We became like Israel wanting a kingdom of our own on Earth with a strong king to rule over us. So God gave us a patriotic movement of deception so that the secret sins of the heart may give birth to a very real monster.

I know politics is your idol because when someone attacks your politics you act as if they have attacked your God. You presume God has a side because of the causes you deemed are evil but you missed the log in your own eye and heart.

I remember watching these evangelical end times movies. There is war in Israel, much like there is now. There is desire for a third temple just like now. The Anti-Christ organizes a peace treaty with Israel and it’s allies, splitting the land. All of this is happening now.

I mean, I never thought the right wing Church in America could be this blind. We missed the arrival of the Anti-Christ because we were hiding under his wing’s. We voted for him, we elected him and we Christians gave him his power. After the release of the Epstein files, many did wake up but many still remain asleep. There are some people who are so in love with Donald Trump they are going to follow him to hell. Get out of being under the political wing of the Anti-Christ and see that the man is evil.

When Samuel went to the sons of Jesse to pick a new king for Israel as God instructed. God did not see any of them as worthy and he taught Samuel by choosing David, man judges by the outward appearance but God judges by the heart. I pray for the deceived. Look at Donald Trump’s character, look at his heart. It is a black pit of hellfire.

He is a bully, he is mean and manipulative. He does what he wants despite the law’s and traditions of our nation. He said he can grab women by the Pu$%*and get away with it because he’s rich. He has been accused and convicted in cival court of rape. He was best friends with Jefferey Epstein and witnesses swore under oath that he sexually assaulted them, violated children in their presence and threatened others with death.

But the Republican’s still stand by him because they refuse to let go of the golden calf. Trump ended Roe vs Wade so he can’t be evil. How little it took Satan to deceive us. “Trump says he’s a Christian” so he must be one, can only be said of someone who does not love scripture or the God of scripture but someone is dangerously deceived. In all ways Donald Trump is the complete opposite of Jesus in every way and everything that Jesus Christ taught us. He sit’s on the throne of New Rome, the successor of Babylon the last man made empire in world history. He is vile, a living embodiment of the seven deadly sins. He embodies the Man of Lawlessness from 2 Thess 2.

In Matthew 24 the LORD Jesus says the end cannot come until the rebellion comes first, until the Abomination of Desolation from Daniel 11 comes to past. That would be the Anti-Christ man setting up an idol in the temple of God declaring himself to be God.

Some pastors and teachers say Daniel 11 was fulfilled before Jesus time in the precursor Antiochus IV Epiphanes. In 167 BC he sacked the temple and sacrificed an unclean pig on the alter. This cannot be what Christ was talking about because Jesus was pointing forward to the end before His Second Coming. So Antiochus was a precursor of what was to come.

I would venture to say that Daniel 11 is the most confusing chapter in all of scripture. It goes on about these Kings which come from different directions like East, North, South. I would not venture to try to explain and map out all of Daniel 11, just like in Revelation we do not need to map out and understand the whole thing as we cannot. God gives grace for us to understand what we need, and we should not ask for more. What we need to get from Daniel 11 is what Christ pointed to, there is a man to come that will profane the Temple and declare himself god right before the end when Jesus returns and the second coming cannot happen until this rebellion comes first.

Daniel shows us the attributes of the Anti-Christ man that was to come.

1. He does what he wills.

This phrase is the most repeated attribute of the Anti-Christ man and explains why Paul called him the “Man of Lawlessness.”

“Then a mighty king shall arise, who shall rule with great dominion and do as he wills.” – Daniel 11:3

“But he who comes against him shall do as he wills, and none shall stand before him. And he shall stand in the glorious land, with destruction in his hand.” – Daniel 11:16

2. He has no religion but worships only himself and military power

““And the king shall do as he wills. He shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak astonishing things against the God of gods. He shall prosper till the indignation is accomplished; for what is decreed shall be done. ³⁷ He shall pay no attention to the gods of his fathers, or to the one beloved by women. He shall not pay attention to any other god, for he shall magnify himself above all. ³⁸ He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these. A god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. ³⁹ He shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. Those who acknowledge him he shall load with honor. He shall make them rulers over many and shall divide the land for a price.” – Daniel 11:36-39

He is not a false Jewish Messiah, he is not a false Islamic Messiah. He worships himself only and military power. He get’s help from a foreign god (Islam). He shall make them rules over many (Board of Peace) and shall divide the land (Gaza) for a price (financial investments).

 ³ “Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, ⁴ who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. ⁵ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? ⁶ And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. ⁷ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. ⁸ And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3-8

Once you see Donald Trump as the Anti-Christ, there is no going back. I couldn’t imagine any human being could ever fit the characteristics of the Anti-Christ man of lawlessness better than him.

3. Military conqueror

“In his place shall arise a contemptible person to whom royal majesty has not been given. He shall come in without warning and obtain the kingdom by flatteries. ²² Armies shall be utterly swept away before him and broken, even the prince of the covenant. ²³ And from the time that an alliance is made with him he shall act deceitfully, and he shall become strong with a small people. ²⁴ Without warning he shall come into the richest parts of the province, and he shall do what neither his fathers nor his fathers’ fathers have done, scattering among them plunder, spoil, and goods. He shall devise plans against strongholds, but only for a time.” – Daniel 11:21-24

Here is how Donald Trump is already fulfilling this prophecy.

1. Venezuela.

Trump sent in the US military, captured the president of Venezuela and took over their oil trade.

2. Iran

This is ongoing, with one of the largest bombing campaigns since world war 2. The leadership has been killed, much of the country has been devastated.

3. Cuba

Even this week Trump has already said he plans to conquer Cuba next after Iran.

4. Greenland

The most difficult because it is a part of another NATO member and would break apart the alliance but Trump has said again and again we will take over Cuba one way or another.

These are only the beginning. I’m sure there will be more if there is time.

So Trump has started the Middle East Peace deals, he’s splitting the land over Gaza becoming it’s unofficial Regent and leader of the “Board of Peace”.

He is conquering nations regardless of legality.

He is doing whatever he want’s, regardless of the law or precedent.

These are the true characteristics of the Anti-Christ from scripture. Not from social media or youtube theories, not from evangelical propaganda or Catholic false teaching. This is not something imagined or proposed this is biblical fact. Everything else is invented. The Anti-Christ doesnt need to be young because he will only be around for 7 years once the Tribulation begins which I believe it does this year. The Anti-Christ doesnt need to be middle eastern or Jewish or Muslim. These are completely invented characteristics coming from which direction the Anti-Christs kingdom invades Israel in the Tribulation. From that they get all this nonsense. Islamic eschatology means nothing. There is no reverse gospel.

The First Beast of Revelation 13 is 7 Kingdoms. We see this in Revelation 17 when it shows the demonic kingdom the Prostitute over many waters sitting on top of the Anti-Christ spirit.

“⁸ The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to rise from the bottomless pit and go to destruction. And the dwellers on earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel to see the beast, because it was and is not and is to come. ⁹ This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated; ¹⁰ they are also seven kings…” – Revelation 17:8-10

Seven Kingdoms, Seven Kings. The last of which being the Man of Lawlessness, who will receive a mortal head wound. Who will make a peace deal with Israel and it’s neighbors and conquer nations. Who will in the Tribulation invade Israel, profane the newly built temple and bring about The Abomination of Desolation which lead to the Great Tribulation before Jesus returns with the Saints to rule for 1,000 years.

I understand people will believe what they want. Most claims about the Anti-Christ do not reside in scripture, so instead go to scripture and beg the Holy Spirit to give correct interpretation.

Compare Daniel 2 with Revelation 13, 17. The Anti-Christ is seven kingdoms, seven kings the last of which being the Man of Lawlessness. He is the leader of one of the Empires, the last and he is wounded in the head.

I know many of us feel it spiritually, that this is the end but we have no idea where it’s coming from. Some of us are so wrapped up in life and pleasure we could not care. Some of us believe in deceptions and lies and misinterpretation. To those who love Jesus Christ, we will receive Grace. To those who don’t, they will receive Tribulation. I understand this may not be for now but someone may read it later and everything will click for them.

Remember there were only 3 wise men who knew the LORD the Messiah had come into the world. So do not be scared or saddened by what was missed and how we were misled or deceived but let every person come to the LORD Jesus Christ in their own hearts. That is the goal of prophecy, to forewarn so that people may receive grace. It is important to identify the Anti-Christ if he is here, because that means a harvest is also near and the time is very very short. Believe now, repent and Jesus will save you from what is to come. If you have missed the initial invitation to the Wedding Supper, endure until the end. Maranatha!

” ⁵ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? ⁶ And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. ⁷ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. ⁸ And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. ⁹ The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, ¹⁰ and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. ¹¹ Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, ¹² in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thess. 2:5-12
