THE COMING OF THE ANTICHRIST

Listen to the Prophet Daniel
Speak about the coming of the Beast of Revelation, The Antichrist:

Out from littleness and small beginnings one of them came forth,
A Horn whose [impious presumption and pride]
Grew and grew exceedingly great
Toward the south and toward the east and toward the ornament--
The precious, blessed land of Israel. [verse 23.]

And [in my vision] this Horn grew great,
Even against the Host of Heaven [God's True people, the Saints],
And some of the Host and of the Stars [priests]
It cast down to the ground and trampled on them,

Yes, [this Horn] magnified itself,
Even [matching itself] against the Prince of the Host [of Heaven];
And from Him the Continual Burnt Offering [the worship of God]
Was taken away,
And the place of god's Sanctuary was Cast Down and Profaned.

And the Host [the chosen people] and strength
Were given to [the Wicked Horn]
Together with the Continual Burn Offering [the worship of God]

BECAUSE OF THE TRANSGRESSION [OF GOD'S PEOPLE]--
Their abounding Irreverence, Ungodliness and lack of Piety.

AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH WERE CAST DOWN TO THE GROUND,
And [the Wicked Horn] accomplished this [by Divine Permission]
And Prospered.

Then I heard a holy one speaking,
And another holy one said to the one that spoke,
For how long is the Vision concerning the Continual Offering,
THE TRANSGRESSION THAT MAKES DESOLATE,
And the giving over of both the Sanctuary
And the Host [of the people] to be trampled under foot? [Luke 21:24.]

And he said to him and to me,
For Two thousand and Three Hundred evenings and mornings;
[Approximately three and one-half years,
The time of the Great Tribulation]
THEN THE SANCTUARY SHALL BE CLEANSED AND RESTORED.
[At the return of Christ Jesus]
(Daniel 8:9-14, AMP)

Now let us look at the apostle Paul describe
The coming of the Antichrist and Christ Jesus:

But relative to the Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah,
And our gathering together to [meet] Him, we beg you, brethren,

Not to allow your minds to be quickly unsettled or disturbed
Or kept excited or alarmed,
Whether it be by some [pretended] revelation of [the ] Spirit
Or by word or by letter [alleged to be] from us,
To the effect that THE DAY OF THE LORD has already arrived and is here.

Let no one deceive or beguile you in any way,
For THAT DAY will not come except the APOSTASY come first--that is,
Unless the [predicted] GREAT FALLING AWAY
Of those who have professed to be Christians has come--
AND THE MAN OF LAWLESSNESS IS REVEALED,
Who is the Son of Doom (of Perdition), [1 Tim.4:1; Dan. 7:25; 8:25.]

WHO OPPOSES AND EXALTS HIMSELF SO PROUDLY AND INSOLENTLY
Against and over ALL that is called God or that is worshiped,
[Even to his actually] taking his Seat in the Temple of God,
Proclaiming that he himself is God. [Dan. 11:36, 37; Ezek. 28:2.]

Do you not recollect that when I was still with you I told you these things?

And now you know what is RESTRAINING HIM
[From being revealed a this time]; [the Holy Spirit]
It is so that he may be manifested (revealed) in his own [appointed] time.
[God Almighty has prepared the time for the Antichrist to be revealed]

For the Mystery of Lawlessness—that hidden principle of Rebellion
Against Constituted Authority [God Himself]--
Is already at work in the World [as Satan rules this Wicked World],
[But it is] RESTRAINED only until HE WHO Restrains is taken out of the way.
[Until the Holy Spirit is removed from the Earth]

And then the Lawless One (the Antichrist) will be Revealed
And the Lord Jesus will Slay him with the Breath of His Mouth
And bring him to an END by His Appearing at His Coming. [Isa. 11:4.]

And the coming [of the Lawless One, the Antichrist]
Is through the activity and working of Satan,
And will be attended by Great Power
And with all sorts of [pretended] miracles and signs and delusive marvels--
[All of them] LYING WONDERS--

And by UNLIMITED SEDUCTION TO EVIL
And with ALL WICKED DECEPTION for those who are (going to PERDITION,)
PERISHING because they did not welcome the TRUTH
But REFUSE TO LOVE IT that they might be Saved.

THEREFORE GOD SENDS UPON THEM A MISLEADING INFLUENCE,
A working of Error and a STRONG DELUSION
To make them believe what is FALSE.

In order that ALL may be Judged and Condemned who DID NOT BELIEVE--
Who REFUSED to Adhere to, Trust in and Rely on—THE TRUTH,
But [instead] took Pleasure in UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.
(2 Thessalonians 2:1-12, AMP)

There, you have a synopsis of what Scripture says
About the Coming of the Beast of Revelation, the Antichrist
And the APOSTASY that Precedes it.
Today, we see America and the World, Falling Away from God and His Word;
RUSHING toward the Revealing of the son of Satan, the Antichrist;
Every Nation, godless, and at War against God and His Word.
It becomes quite clear how easy it will be for the World
To receive the Antichrist—to receive his “mark” and worship him.

Be always on the Watch,
And pray that you will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be able TO STAND before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:36)

Today, the World is raging against God, rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
