Apparently among many evangelicals (even on FreeRepublic), there’s this ongoing notion that a revived Roman Empire would form the initial kingdom of the Antichrist. Some would even say that the EU would form the basis of this revived Roman Empire (even though many EU countries were never part of the Roman Empire to begin with). And they’re worried that the EU would somehow reinstate the guillotine because of Revelation 20:4, while ignoring the one group that still uses beheading as means to execute Christians.
Shouldn’t they be more concerned with a revived Turkish Ottoman Empire? After all, the Ottoman Empire is the seventh kingdom in Revelation (after destroying the Roman Empire in 1453), and the eighth world empire (the empire of the Antichrist) is a revival of the seventh instead of the sixth.

No, that is facetious at best.
How would the powerless Turks overcome the world?
The World Government is already in place; you’re just ignoring it.

Of course not...though it’s possible the Muslims nations will be included...they almost have to be initially for the revenues which come from their oil production...which the World Gov. will want to include in their coffers...otherwise the Arab League etc. (whatever they will call their group) would become too powerful...so they will want to include them in order to control them as much as possible.
By that time the world will be horrendously lawless and a strong and firm global “hand” must be used to control it. I can see the Islamists chomping at the bit to have that opportunity.....(their roll of inclusion in the World Order)...especially for any that name Christ...it’s natural for their natures to kill people, they believe it’s their calling. So they can do so believing they are filling Allah’s purpose, and this at the invite of the NWO.
