Who is the beast of Revelation 13?
14.06.2025 17:18
“And there was given to him a mouth speaking of ‘great things’ and blasphemous words… and he opened his mouth saying terrible things and blasphemed the name of God.”
The pastor of the church was absolutely furious that he would not only do this to peaceful protestors in front of the church, but that he would use their church and a Bible from inside, as a photo op. They even threw a priest off church property in order to do it.
The Antichrist will reward those who are completely loyal with powerful positions and lucrative real estate deals.
Is crossdressing being a transvestite?
This prophecy could likely only be fulfilled if a rich business person were to win a deceptively influenced election, and then serve as president with some sort of business structure that got he and his friends richer and richer just from being president.
The Bible predicts the Antichrist will survive the near-fatal wound to his rule, but then goes on to tell us he will need the most powerful religious leader in the country to help him solidify support among the religious in order to stay in power– specifically around the 3 1/2 year mark.
Revelation 13:1, Ch. 17
Would you date/marry a guy younger than you? If no, why not?
However… it’s hard to imagine this actually happening. I don’t know if I’ve ever met a professing Christian who saw themselves as being so flawless or had zero reverence for God. Well, take that back– never mind the admission that he’s “never seen a need” to ask God forgiveness for anything, or saying, “Why should I repent if I haven’t done anything wrong?” just TODAY he did something that seemed unthinkable…
“”There will be a leader over the land who will not help the ones who are dying.”
“The arise in power of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie.”
Why are European countries warning European travelers to be careful traveling to the United States?
Could you spot the Antichrist? Well, the Bible gives us a boat load of clues– and this is another unique one that will stand out in American history. The Bible tells us that after the 3 1/2 year mark, the rule of the Antichrist will come to an end. In an American context that would most likely mean the Antichrist loses his re-election bid.

The Antichrist’s rise to power will seem like a miracle that God performed, tricking people into following Satan instead of God without even noticing.
What melts your heart every time without fail?
Daniel 11:23
Revelation 13:5-6
Well, we know the Antichrist hates God and doesn’t worship him– but the Bible *does* actually let us in on a secret and tells us who the Antichrist does worship… and spoiler: it’s not actually Satan.
The Antichrist will be someone obsessed with winning.
And we all thought it was going to be a barcode or chip….
When the pandemic hits, be on the lookout for a leader who delays action even though he knows people will die, someone who publicly spreads scientifically false information that could get people killed, and someone who is in far more of a hurry to get back to winning than he is to help the sick and the dying.
The Antichrist will be a political outsider with despicable character and a contemptuous personality who wins an election that no one expects him to win.
“The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.”
Benjamin L. Corey
How do teachers justify punishing a student for fighting back against their bullies?
If such a thing were to ever occur, you might likely hear a government oversight body state something to the effect of: “The president has turned the government of the United States into a money-making operation for his family, his friends and himself.”
When the Antichrist comes, be sure to look for powerful religious folk claiming it was a miracle from God:
This would be exceedingly eye-brow-raising for any serious Antichrist hunter, were this to ever happen in a presidential speech… right?
Why am I sweating so much when I try to do anything?
Creepy coincidence? The entire Antichrist narrative of Daniel 11 is situated around a conflict along the southern border where the Antichrist is wanting something that the king to his south wont give him. Based on the whole of Antichrist prophecies and the common thread of money and greed, it certainly appears to be money that he wants from the nation to his south…
With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.
Yes, you’re tracking with me correctly: the Bible predicts the Antichrist will be an arrogant political outsider who talks about “great” and “greater” things, who wins an election where he has less supporters due to the election being tampered with, who then instantly gets rich off the presidency and spends his time in a feud with the president across from his southern border.

Are there any nude pictures of women with big tits?
To honor those who have given me such warning, I decided to spend the past week studying the most significant biblical prophecies and descriptions typically believed by my conservative friends to refer the Antichrist. If my evangelical friends are correct, and if it’s entirely possible that the Antichrist is on the global scene today, I certainly wouldn’t want to be the only person in the room who didn’t recognize the Antichrist when I saw him.
And let’s not even open the can of worms regarding the building on 5th ave… Yeah, the same deal that was bailed out by Justice Kennedy’s son before Kennedy surprised everyone and retired– giving Trump what had been a swing vote on the Supreme Court. #PowerMove
So I read the book of revelation. Here is an article by a biblical researcher. Draw your own conclusions:
Why do some people have sex with dogs?
The Antichrist will be someone known for making a lot of public threats against people.
“He will try to change the set times and the laws.”
Maybe the money wasn’t enough for what he wanted and didn’t know where the rest would come from?
Daniel 11:21
The Bible says that we’ll be able to spot the Antichrist because he will give an arrogant public speech in the middle of his first term where he boasts of “great things” but also uses God’s name as a curse in the same speech.
BLC is an author, speaker, scholar, and global traveler, who holds graduate degrees in Theology & Intercultural Studies from Gordon-Conwell, and earned his doctorate in Intercultural Studies from Fuller.
This verse helps us start by narrowing down the nations and times the Antichrist could come from. The passage directly states he is from a nation that was different from times before, in that it was powerful enough to crush and destroy the entire earth– likely a nuclear superpower. Revelation also speaks of the Antichrist and his prophet having the power to “call down fire from the sky,” which further supports this notion.
Revelation 8:10
Beyond words. This is what Antichrist looks like.
So in the end, what do I believe theologically on the subject of eschatology after this research project?
He will not go looking for the young who got lost, or care for the children.
Trump Tower, Manila
You can’t even make this stuff up– yes, the Bible *actually* says that instead of worshipping the true God, the Antichrist will worship an unknown god of “fortresses.”
“‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.”
The Antichrist will appear to receive a wound he can’t recover from, but will survive to put down the first attempts to remove him from office.
Yes, the Bible says the Antichrist will worship the god of border walls.
Daniel 11:39b
The Antichrist will worship the god of border walls.
Revelation 13:2, Daniel. 7:4
3 1/2 year mark? That’s re-election season. Interesting!
And the final biblical prophecy on the Antichrist:
… But the people who truly know God and remain faithful, will firmly “resist” him.
Well, according to Daniel, look for a period of civil unrest where those who “resist” speak out against the culture of the Antichrist. Protesters will face violence from security forces, some will “fall” and get no help when they do, and their movement will be co-opted by opportunists whose motive is to plunder (loot) but who are not sincerely members of the resistance movement.
Well, funny thing again: while Donald Trump owns at least ten skyscrapers that I’m aware of, apparently only seven of them are formally named Trump Towers:
Some predictions and prophecies can be like horoscopes: they can appear to apply to anyone.
Daniel 7:26
Matt. 24:24, 2nd Thess 2:10
The Antichrist will use his armed forces to remove people from the area surrounding a church and will do something detestable in front of it
“…had a mouth like that of a lion.”
I don’t know yet.
During the pandemic the Antichrist will not prioritize the vulnerable.
And I’m with you… when you get into stuff like numerology and interpreting seven-headed beasts, it’s hard to know if something is an eerie coincidence, or just plain silly.
But what I do know is this: If the Antichrist comes, I’m not going to be the one guy in the room who doesn’t recognize him.
Yup- trolling from long-since-dead-guys. Priceless!
“[He] appeared to be fatally wounded, but the fatal wound was healed– and the whole world was amazed.”
2 Thess. 2:9
The Antichrist will see himself as being above everyone else, as if he had no need for God. He will eventually elevate himself as the God and King of Israel
During the rule of the Antichrist people will begin having strange and vivid dreams.
It further tells us, both in Daniel and then mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24, that the Antichrist will use the military to clear out the area outside a church until it is empty and desolate. Once the area is cleared, the Antichrist will do something just outside of the church that is an abomination to God.
During the reign of the Antichrist those who are wise to what is happening will rise up and resist in a period of civil unrest that will get a lot of attention. They will face violence from security forces and receive no help from the Antichrist.
Daniel 11:32
While some prophecies are general enough to fit certain leaders here and there, thankfully the Bible give us some rather specific clues to also look for– like a rich and arrogant political outsider who happens to be in the business of negotiating land and property deals.
BENJAMIN L. COREY
“Those who are wise will instruct many, though for a time they will fall by the sword or be burned or captured or plundered. When they fall, they will receive a little help, and many who are not sincere will join them.”
“He will show no regard for the gods of his ancestors or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all. Instead of them, he will honor a god no one will have heard of before: the god of fortresses. And he will worship this god with a lot of money.”
The Bible predicts that negotiating a deal will be hopeless, as neither side is willing to budge. The Antichrist hates the leadership south of his border and hates his people. Not surprisingly, the Bible says they aren’t big fans of the northern king (v11:27). Scripture tells us that negotiations never get off the ground, as kings to the south don’t want to give the Antichrist anything.
I’d honestly started this post intending to be silly, and during my research began to find the coincidences and certain numbers happening to match a bit amusing the first few times. But at a certain point the coincidences added up or got too specific, and it wasn’t funny anymore– it was deeply unsettling.
Daniel 11:25
Trump Towers, Istanbul
The Bible says that the Antichrist will be given power to rule for approximately 3 1/2 years. It doesn’t say that his rule ends exactly at three and a half years, but rather indicates the bulk of his season of power is limited to this span of time. In an American context, this makes complete sense as the 3 1/2 year mark is when the focus of a president either shifts to re-election, or in the case of a two-term president, this period often becomes the “lame duck” period where many presidents functionally lose their power and influence.
That’s right: In the middle of the Antichrist’s feud along the southern border he will hear troubling “rumors and reports” that specifically come from the eastern and the northern parts of the country.
He won’t help the ones who are sick or broken, or even give nourishment to the hungry ones who are still healthy.”
Some commentaries argue it’s not even referencing a real deity (though some think it was the ‘god of towers’ like a gate tower), but instead note that it is likely the Antichrist will be so obsessed with a border wall, worshipping it with a lot of money, that it functionally becomes his god.
Daniel 11:29-33
Bummer of an address Jared! Glad you were able to offload that.
Revelation 11:1-2, 13:5, Daniel 7:25
How do we know the time is at hand and the Antichrist is in power?
I grew up in the rapture-me-outta-here end times movement, and have spilled no shortage of ink critiquing it– even poking a bit of fun at it. As a theologian I fall into a category of belief that sees biblical prophecies about “the end” as being events that have mostly been fulfilled in the past, but I try to hold that belief gently and recognize I could be wrong.
To keep your eye out for the Antichrist, I would look for a president who is able to rule quite powerfully for the first 3 1/2 years, but who then either completely shifts his focus to re-election, or sees his power & influence slip away as election season takes over– and who loses in the end.
The Bible goes on to predict the rumors will “frighten” him and leave him so furious, that he has fits of rage and will want to destroy people over the reports.
Seven heads? Maybe like potential head-quarters?
“I could hear his boastful speech…”
Get ready to have your mind blown with what Zechariah’s prophecy about the coming Antichrist says on this matter, especially in light of what Daniel tells us regarding the Antichrist’s retaliation along the border:
For real. The Bible actually says that.
Revelation 6:2
“He will stir up his strength and courage against the king of the South…”
Revelation 13:4: (after he survived the wound) “they worshiped the dragon who gave power unto the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast?”
Okay, I get it
While all modern presidents are wealthy, and politicians give kick-backs, Daniel indicates something will be different about this president and that he will uniquely profit off the presidency in a way that previous presidents never imagined.
Revelation 13:11–12
“And he will exalt himself above all… so that he sets himself up in God’s own temple in Israel, proclaiming himself to be God.”
2nd Thess 2:4, Rev 17
“And they received a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads…”
“And then I saw a second beast come from the Earth who looked like a lamb but spoke like a dragon… and it deceived the inhabitants of the Earth…”
Here’s Donald Trump, just as the Bible predicts, setting himself up like he’s the God and King of Israel:
Many of my fellow Christians in America have warned me over the years of exactly that, often telling me: “I feel sorry for you, because when the Antichrist comes you’re not even going to recognize him!”
The Antichrist will be furious over “rumors and reports” that come from the east and north, and will fly into fits of rage as the reports surface.
“But then the court will convene, and all his power will be taken away.”
On June 1, 2020, Donald Trump had federal officers fired teargas (a weapon that is outlawed under the Geneva Convention) and rubber bullets on peaceful protesters in Washington D.C. and make the area desolate so that he could walk to a local church for a staged photo op. It was not a church he attended (he prefers to play golf on Sundays), and the photo op was to help him with conservative religious voters.
The Antichrist comes to power through collusion with a secret alliance who uses disinformation to help him win– even though he has a minority number of supporters.
Revelation 13:3
– Zechariah 11:16-17
Thus, when considering the prophecy in light of the modern world, it most likely leaves Russia or the United States, as both have over 6,000 warheads with remaining nuclear nations having under a few hundred. Furthermore, Revelation 17:15 describes the Antichrist coming from a place where there are “multitudes of peoples, nations, and languages” which would most accurately depict a “melting pot” nation like the United State.
The Bible also says that even though the Antichrist will come home with a large sum of money, that he’s even more furious about things after.
During the rule of the Antichrist there will be food shortages and huge spike in food prices, but will be a surplus of oil that remains cheap.
“The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.”
And by the end? Well, stick with me as the prophecies grow more specific, and you’ll see why my mind was a bit blown– and why as a Christian my spirit was deeply unsettled by the the end of it:
“…and he was bent on conquering.”
What’s fascinating is that the Bible never tells us he actually succeeds or does change the appointed cycles, but that he expresses wanting to change them. What would it look like to express an interest in changing laws around cycles and appointed times? It would likely be that the Antichrist will want to change elections, skip/delay an election, or extend term limits, etc, thus what the Bible says of “intending to alter laws for appointed times…”
“And I saw a beast coming out of the sea with ten horns and seven heads, which stood for seven hills”
The Antichrist will attempt to stay in power, but will be defeated by the nation’s courts.
Daniel. 7:23
(c) 2019, Benjamin L. Corey. All Rights Reserved
I mean, if this were to happen all my end-times friends would spot it, wouldn’t they? Revelation 13 very specifically tells us that somewhere in the middle of his first three and a half years in office, the Antichrist will give a very specific and telling speech: he will arrogantly brag of his accomplishments and ‘great’ things, and will also use God’s name in a way considered to be blasphemy.
False Prophet
The Antichrist will be a one-term president
“He did everything wrong, politically. He offended gays. He offended women. He offended the military. He offended black people. He offended the Hispanic people. He offended everybody! And he became president of the United States. Only God could do that.”
In this verse the Bible continues down the path of helping us get more specific about the rise of the Antichrist so we won’t miss it when we see it: He says that the Antichrist will be unique from all other presidents before him in the way he will be able to use the presidency to instantly get richer and toss lots of money over to his friends.
If that’s not enough to help us identify the Antichrist, the Bible throws us a major bone: He’ll be a president experienced at negotiating land and property deals, and he’ll have access to plenty to buy and sell.
And yes, the Bible actually says that after negotiations fail at the souther border he decides to get even by intentionally inflicting harm and distress on that ethnic group.
Here are the no-kidding-not-satire-prophecies and signs of the antichrist the Bible tells us to watch out for… and that blew my mind by the time I was done:
“For false Christs and false prophets will arise and appear to perform ‘great’ signs and wonders so as to lead astray, if possible, God’s own people. He will use every kind of evil deception to fool those on their way to destruction…”
Daniel 11:44
So, as you keep your eyes peeled for the Antichrist, be sure to keep in mind that it won’t be a quiet leader who is deceitfully humble and flies under the radar– The Bible says it will be someone who loves to give speeches where he boasts about himself.
Daniel 8 and 2nd Thessalonians 2 are incredibly descriptive warnings to help us recognize the Antichrist. Predicting that under his rule “deceit will prosper” warns us to look for someone who calls the truth “fake news” and who is known for constantly lying.
In case you too are a bit rusty in the area of biblical predictions about the coming Antichrist and don’t want to be oblivious if such a person were to arise, consider me your chief antichristologist who is more than happy to help you out.
This verse also speaks to the likelihood the coming of the Antichrist is more likely to be in the modern world instead of the ancient one. 2,000 years ago it would not have been possible for people all over the globe to become fascinated by a political leader, let alone “follow” them.
Trump International Hotel and Tower, Toronto
The Antichrist is someone in need of constant affirmation, so the Bible predicts he will use his position to surround himself with blind loyalists who honor and submit to him.
What does this word “fortress” literally translate to?
Daniel 8:25, 2 Thess 2:10
BENJAMIN L. COREY
Recently people have begin having strange and vivid dreams all across the country, and scientists have been busy trying to explain why it’s happening. The New York Times reported that the query on Google, “why am i having weird dreams lately” has quadrupled. Even National Geographic has a full article on the spike of people reporting having strange dreams.
In addition to your king-like figure who likes to run his mouth, the Bible tells us to be on the lookout for someone obsessed with winning. Of course, most people like to win, but this figure will be different– he will be so obsessed with it that he’ll probably talk about it all the time. He might even fantasize about winning so much that one gets tired of winning.
So, if the Antichrist were to come in the present age, we’d be most likely looking for an American president known for being exceptionally arrogant, boastful, and threatening others, but who also came from 7 tall “hills” or places of power… one of which would need to be somewhere in the vicinity of where John was looking out into the ocean where the vision occurred.
Israeli airstrikes kill 10 Lebanese civilians, Hezbollah vows to retaliate
As we begin to assemble the biblical prophecies, Christians on guard should be looking for a king-like figure who loves to boast about himself, but who also loves to go around roaring like a lion– things like threats to his enemies and a constant verbal flexing of muscle.
John described the Antichrist (beast) “rising up from the sea” as he looked out from the Island of Patmos in a supernatural vision. The Bible describes the beast as having 7 heads, which symbolized 7 “hills” that stood up high. Hills also are metaphorical for places of power in the Bible.
The Antichrist will give speeches where he speaks “great things” and then about things that are even “greater.”
Wow, and you know what? John’s vision also said that the seven heads all had someone’s name written across them. Interesting!
“…and many people died from the waters that had become bitter”
Franklin Graham
“Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil!”
The Antichrist will have the nation’s most powerful religious leader influencing the country for him. This leader will try to convince Christians that the Antichrist is “God’s pick” and that we need to support him.
Still need a few more warning signs from the Bible as to the identity of the Antichrist? Apparently God doesn’t want us to miss it, because the last few drive it all home:
So, you know… according to God’s holy and infallible word and all, one of the other major signs to warn us of the arrival of the Antichrist would be an election where someone won with fewer supporters, and where it was also proven that an evil outside power meddled with the process to specifically put that person in office.
But are you ready for some Antichrist trolling about 2,600 years in the waiting?
As president, the Antichrist will immediately find ways to make himself and his friends richer– and he will do it in a way no president had ever done before.
“There will be a leader over the land who will not help the ones who are dying.
Evil is evil, but evil is not stupid… or at least, Satan isn’t. When the time comes to make his power move in the human story, he’ll find a way to not only make evil palatable– he’ll try the ultimate bait and switch by making God himself seem responsible for this evil. What better way to get a hit in, than to do it and make it look like God actually did it?
The Antichrist will come from among 7 tall “hills” that each act as a “head.
Trump Tower, NYC
“Then he will distribute among his followers the plunder and wealth of the rich—something his predecessors had never done.”
During the rule of the Antichrist there will be a global pandemic that will kill many people.
“He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior… He will use every kind of evil deception to fool those on their way to destruction, because they refuse to love and accept the truth that would save them.”
“His armed forces will rise up to desecrate the area surrounding the temple, so that they can set up the abomination that leaves the area empty.”
Yup– even the name of our movement is mentioned in the Antichrist narrative.
Acts 2:17
Does the Bible predict the future with stunning accuracy as so many in the end-times camp have claimed?
Yeah, the Bible references the “worthless shepherd” who will do that– AKA: the Antichrist.
“But reports will trouble him from the east and north, and he will set out in a tremendous rage to destroy and wipe out many.”
To spot the Antichrist as the Bible predicts, look for a president who gives high level positions away on the basis of personal loyalty. While all politics involve a level of this, the Bible calls the Antichrist a worthless shepherd’ so he will likely have a cabinet of leaders in disarray and incompetence, with many being blatantly unqualified or even a bunch of them going to jail.
The Antichrist will cause people all over the globe to be filled with wonder and “follow” him.
And of course, when Trump squeaked by in the Russia investigation due to internal DOJ policy which doesn’t allow the indictment of a sitting president, and because the jury who decided the outcome of his impeachment trial announced the outcome before the trial was even held.
It also says that the Antichrist will go down to the southern border as things heat up– there is a crisis where both sides have troops along the southern border– and that the Antichrist will return home with a large sum of money shortly after.
The Antichrist will be the leader of a nation that is a military superpower with the ability to trample and crush the entire earth.
And this is a little bizarre, but in John’s vision he said that the 7 heads had horns on them– some had just one, some had two… kinda like those antennas on top.
Daniel 7:8, Revelation 13:5
But I can’t imagine the country would turn a blind eye if that ever happened, especially for my evangelical friends who tell me we need to always be on guard for the arrival of the Antichrist.
When looking to identify the Antichrist, the Bible starts to help us with some really specific prophecies. Based on what the Bible predicts, a most likely scenario for the arrival of the Antichrist would be a candidate for president who came from the private sector (not of ‘royal’ background) being found with despicable morality along with a contemptuous personality, who campaigned on flattery and lies– but somehow went on to win an election no one expected him to win… leaving the country stunned.
The Antichrist will be a man who is exceptionally arrogant and will be known for giving boastful speeches.
The Antichrist’s most devoted followers will wear a sign of their allegiance to him on their foreheads.
Daniel 11:33
“He will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will sell them land at a price.”
“He will set himself against the people… doing much damage before continuing his journey.”
“After an alliance is made with him he will practice deception, and he will go up and gain power with a small force of people.”
The Antichrist will spend his first term in office having an ongoing feud with the leadership of the nation on his southern border.
Another interesting coincidence: in April 2019 Trump toured the southern border and returned home days later to the Pentagon awarding him $1 billion toward his border wall.
No kidding: the Bible predicts the Antichrist will be someone who negotiates powerful real estate deals with his friends.
Starting to get weird now, isn’t it? This is about the point I got goosebumps and a little freaked out also.
What is also interesting is the Bible tells us in the very next verse that after the Antichrist engages in this act in front of the church, he will flatter and compliment Christians who have betrayed their faith to follow him. In an interview after his staged event, Trump said that religious people were happy he did it and mentioned Franklin Graham and Robert Jefress– offering them both flattery.
Daniel 11:24
In ancient times God-followers went to the temple to sacrifice, worship him, and gather together. The Bible tells us that during the rule of the Antichrist there will come a time when churches do not gather like they used to.
The prophecy describes a political/religious alliance where the most influential religious leader in the country goes around speaking to large crowds, displaying any and all religious credentials he can muster, in order to generate support for the Antichrist rule to last more than just 3/12 years.
Sorry, but I’m old enough to remember when revivals were for God and blasphemy was a serious sin.
Revelation 6:6
Trump World Tower, New York
Zechariah 11:6
In March and April of 2020, many Americans had their very first experience walking into a grocery store and finding the shelves completely bare. This period also marked the biggest price increase in American food prices since 1974– at a time when oil was at such a surplus that for a moment, it had a negative price.
Daniel 11:37-38
Update, 10/6/2020:
But you know what? He is not the God of Israel. He doesn’t worship or even know the God of Israel.
The Antichrist will draw strong support from many Christians as if they are willfully blind and outright delusional.
The Antichrist will be so angry at the king to his south that he will decide to intentionally inflict harm on that ethnic group in retaliation.
Yes, in warning us of the Antichrist the Bible predicts in both Daniel and Revelation that when the Antichrist comes, he’ll not only be the contemptuous and arrogant political outsider who pulls an upset in the election– but warns us that he’ll specifically be speaking of “great” and “greater” things along the way.
Children being ripped from their parents as a deterrent from crossing into the “northern kingdom,” refugees being locked in cages without adequate care, some dying in our custody, children still missing or given for adoption even though they weren’t orphans?
The Antichrist will make fake news popular and will be a chronic liar. His followers will believe his delusions because they hate the truth.
Revelation 13
Border walls that secure a city or country, that’s what.
The Bible predicts that during the rule of the Antichrist that there will be a global pandemic where an illness enters the country from a foreign place, spreading in liquid form (cough, sneeze) and ends up killing many, many people in the nation and globally.
Once in power the Antichrist will reveal that his heart wants to make alterations to the “appointed times” that are in current laws.
“He had a mouth that spoke great things, and that seemed greater than its companions…”
The Bible predicts that there will be food shortages that cause a dramatic spike in food prices, while leaving some commodities untouched.
Daniel 7:20
Huh… well this is a super weird coincidence:
In fact, the Antichrist lies so much that the Bible stops calling him the Antichrist and starts calling him The Liar– using the definite article for effect– as if he begins to personify fake news and lies.
Revelation. 13:3
“… a despicable person will arise… a man of contempt… to whom the royal honor has not been rightfully conferred. He will slip in when least expected and will seize the kingdom through flattery and intrigue.”
However, Daniel 7 tells us it will not end there– meaning it is highly likely the Antichrist will not accept the election results, or will attempt to find some other way to stay in power. But the biblical prophesy to look for is this: the Bible tells us that the nation’s court system will sit in judgment over the matter, and that they will rule against the Antichrist (the “liar” as the Bible calls him), and that their ruling will be the final blow that brings his rule to an end.
