There has been a lot of chatter lately that Turkey's new President Erdogan is the Antichrist.
But this guy hasn't just set the world on fire yet. He seems to be trying revive the Ottoman Empire instead.
To me I'm looking for a country or leader that appears to lead the fight against terrorism.
Seeing as how the Antichrist will get both sides to agree to a 7 year treaty.. I don't think Muslims would listen to someone who isn't Muslim.
Here are some questions maybe we can answer?
1) Will the Antichrist be a Muslim? Or a Secret Muslim?
2) Will he come from Rome? Which ISIS is continually talking about they are a battle against.
3) Who is the False Prophet?
4) What events will lead to the destruction of Damascus? ISIS-related?
5) Where do Iran's nuclear ambitions fit in with the end times? If Iran gets a bomb they're going to use it. And I don't remember reading anything in the Bible about Israel being nuked. Soo Israel must continue to thwart Iran in some way, shape or form.
6) Is Obama a Sunni or a Secret Shiite?
His name is legion, so yes, I left off his first and middle names - not enough space.

I enjoy reading others views on escatology. Usefulness is in the eye of the beholder. No like, no look.
I hear he looks something like this guy...
A political leader who comes "out of" the eleventh horn (the little horn among the ten horns which come "out of" the fourth empire--Roman Byzantium).
A prince to come from the "yam" that destroyed the temple in 70 AD (Daniel 9:24). Roman--Western European? No. Because the word translated "people"--"yam"; means tribal or ethnic group. Titus Army was made up of tribal ethnic Assyrians drawn (per Tacitus and Suetonius) from levys on the local kings--see every single one of the references in Josephius to individuals in the Army--all to persons from the Assyrian Empire.
Probably from the tribe of Dan ("Dan thou art a viper . . . . "); resettled in 725 by Shalmaannasar to the area around Southern Damascus.
A king from Daniel's eleventh horn--a nation of people which are among the ten nations but "diverse" from them--the so called Palestinians which inhabit the ten nations of the Middle East which were part of the Roman Empire.
The "Wounded Head" of Revelations.
There is in fact a member of the Palestinian leadership living on the West Bank--head (one of the seven heads of the seven cities set over to the PA by the Interim Agreement); who was wounded in the head unto death; pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital in Beirut--had a miraculous recovery.
An ancestral Jew born in a family from Southern Damascus.
The truth is we will not know the true anti-Christ until he is revealed.
God does the revealing and it will be in His time that it takes place.
What do you think Iran and Russia’s role is in all this?
I think ISIS is just a distraction from the other guys doing evil. Not that ISIS isn’t evil. But they’re being financed by someone or a country.
so did Jeanne Dixon, who actually disclosed a dream that she had, saying that he had been born in February, 1962 and was of Middle Eastern descent.
I knew he wasn’t born in August of ‘61.
1. People have been speculating for ages who the anti Christ is/was/will be. The is obvious that most speculation is/was/will be wrong.
2. It is written that false prophets in the last days will deceive even the very elect. This makes me think that the AC will not be someone that can be spotted from a thousand miles out as the 'big bad guy.' Thus, it will probably be someone that MOST people on FR will support, not some Obama or Turkish president.
What about Putin?
Pretty much as people who could care less about what God wants, that is their leadership, not necessarily the people themselves.
Many are vying for the top spot in hell. And I can not understand why.
Personally, I’ve got my money on a certain closet Muslim in the White House.

That guy is such a world-class boob it would be complimentary to compare him to the AC. Like someone posted earlier, he’s a warm up act and a shabby one at that. I really think the AC will be a man of peace, someone very Christ-like - how else will he fool even the elect? Most of those/us who would be able to call him out for what he is from 10k miles away will be gone, which is one reason why the pre-trib rapture event makes sense.
A Syrian Jew, and I recall something about an X?
An X?
I may be mistaken. I recall something about his sign being an X
Kidding, right? That thrice-divorced "prophecy expert" who erroneously stated in the book, among other things, that the rapture would take place within one generation, (40 years) of the founding of the State of Israel in 1948?
Nah, he was just a test or a prototype. He has lost the respect of the nations. He is also goofy looking.
Imho
The holy spirit gives the believers “discernment”
I am of the belief we will know
Just like when O came on the stage 2007
I not only got the creeps, i knew something was RADICALLY wrong
