ISIS Fears This Story About ‘the Antichrist’ So Much They Never Mention It to Recruits
By Justen Charters (9 hours ago) | Headlines, World
One thing that you may be of unaware of when it comes to ISIS is that they’re obsessed with end times prophecy.
In fact, the terrorists who have come from all over the globe believe their jihad in Syria will help reign in the Apocalypse. To bolster the group’s recruitment efforts, the jihadists promote the idea that a final battle between the armies of the Muslims and unbelievers will take place in Dabiq, an area located in northern Syria.
As far as the outcome of the battle goes, ISIS believes that it will emerge victorious over those who oppose them.
Some have even compared the terrorist organization that controls areas in Syria, Iraq and Libya to a doomsday cult. However, there is a big problem with how selective ISIS is when it comes to their apocalyptic vision.
ISIS (also known as the Islamic State) uses Islamic scripture and prophecies to bolster its assertion, but it conveniently ignores one particularly damning prophecy that could inherently challenge the legitimacy of its self-declared “caliphate” — the territory in Iraq and Syria it controls that is central to Islamic doomsday prophecies.
Will McCants, director of the Project on US Relations with the Islamic World at the Brookings Institution, mentions it in his new book, “The ISIS Apocalypse.”
“There is one prophecy about the Antichrist that the Islamic State and its fans have studiously avoided, even though it is in a collection of prophecies they revere: The Antichrist will ‘appear in the empty area between Sham [Syria] and Iraq,'” McCants wrote. “That, of course, is precisely where the Islamic State is located.”

You mean one nuke and we’re done with these bastards?
Jihadi fighters in Iraq and Syria reveal the apocalyptic motivations of the militant movement that has hijacked the Syrian uprising – and transformed the Middle East
I hope there’s enough room in Dabiq to bury all these Mohammedan pigs.
Very Interesting.
I see that Dabiq is the location of THE TEMPLE OF BAAL.
Probably just a coincidence.
; )
So what. Have you ever actually seen Russian Marines running drills with AK105’s in 5.45?
What ISIS thinks is no longer relevant, the remainder of their time on Earth is measured in minutes.
Heh. I’ve long thought the radical Muslims, ISIS or not, might be a driving force behind the final tribulation.
In a related notice to said radical Muslims...
Boys, the good news is the Mahdi is coming soon.
The bad news is He’s Jewish.
(”In the name of Allah, The Inexorable, The Irresistible...”)
First coincidence, then irony.
ISIS destroyed the Temple of Baal.
Well, I hate to blow their theory, but the confrontation between GOD and Gog and Magog will take place in Israel, in the Valley of Miggido.
And .. GOD WINS.
And .. this event occurs BEFORE THE TRIBULATION AND/OR THE COMING OF CHRIST FOR THE CHURCH.

Article and # 2 .
Isn't Sunday night TEOTWAWKI? Blood Moon and all that.
I pretty much agree.
“...believe their jihad in Syria will help reign in the Apocalypse.”
This word “reign” does not mean what the writer apparently thinks it means. Maybe he means “ring” or “bring” but certainly not reign.
“I hope there’s enough room in Dabiq to bury all these Mohammedan pigs.”.....
Drop a big enough “bunker buster” and problem solved.
Can we declare today a holiday?
Spetznaz Napalm Sunday!
According to some those marines are running a drill right now at the Kweires military airport near Aleppo ...
Question: If God's win in the big battle occurs before the Tribulation, then why would there be Tribulation AFTER the battle?
Doesn't it make more sense that the Tribulation (great trouble or suffering)will happen BEFORE God wins the last great battle? I think theologians agree that the first the Tribulation, and then at the very end of it, the big battle in the Valley of Miggido.
The remaining question that they do not all agree on is where the Rapture falls (before, during, or at the end of the Tribulation. Personally I want to believe that the Rapture comes BEFORE the Tribulation begins. And there are several reasons that I believe this point because scripture seems to confirm. However, that is entirely a different discussion, so suffice it to just point out to you my point that first the Tribulation, then the Battle of Armageddon.
I am always ready to hear other opinions, and would like to hear your amswer to my above question.
but that might be the battle where obama gets the head would that someone heals him from.
Yes, that is peculiar wording. Perhaps he meant to use “rein”, but even that doesn’t make sense.
Trying to think of a synonym for the verb form of “precipitate” that is close to “rein”....
BUMP
