Islam is the worship of satan. Explains a lot. You can say the same for those who support Islam too. They’re all on the same side, which explains even more.
0bama is the “Man of Sin” check this out.

I agree. Unfortunately, any church that is not prepared for persecution will fear and stumble. When the Communists in Russia began their persecution, the average church fell from 300 to 15 worshipers. That is a 95% (great?) falling away. That pattern was repeated in each of the Communist satellite countries.
It's happening... this is close.
As ordained when Hagar called him god.
Ever read the story of Mahdi...it is exactly like Christ’s story...interesting that they would hope that over time they would destroy Christianity and replace Jesus with Mahdi...
uhm...not so peaceful - me thinks!
Christianity didn’t go away, it went underground.
These types of horror stories have been made up for thousands of years. Much like Hollwood makes movies today, it was entertainment.
What if AntiChrist and Mahdi turn out to be the same person?
All depends on the author.
I believe that there are at least ten known persons called the "Mahdi". The most notable was Mohammed Ahmed al Mahdi (1844-1885). He swept the Sudan clear of Egyptian rule. His fanatics killed General Gordon, who was an adviser to the defenders of Khartoum.
After his triumph, he died of typhus. A magnificent tomb was built for his remains. Herbert, Lord Kitchener, with the British army and Egyptian allies, defeated the Mahdi's successor. Kitchener's men destroyed the tomb. They desecrated the remains of the Mahdi. They threw the remains in the River Nile. His scull was sent to Cairo.
A successor was quickly chosen. He was the "Khalifa". Abullah Ibn Mohammed. Born 1846 and died fighting the British 1899. The slaughter by American made machine guns of the fanatical dervish at Omdurman 1898, is legendary stuff.
The tomb has been rebuilt and is a tourist attraction.
Many believe do, strange as it may seem, believe in this.
This illustrates why I don’t believe that the Anti-Christ will be the Mahdi.
The different sects of Islam will never accept the same man as the Mahdi.
They didn’t in these instances and they won’t accept any future man as the Mahdi.
The power structures of the various sects will never agree to consolidation of power in the same man.
But are the concepts in the most widely accepted translation of the Koran simply linguistic mistakes?

Off topic, for which I hope to be excused, but one of my favourite books is.
Blacklisted By History
The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy
And His Fight Against America's Enemies
Author: M. Stanton Evans
I took the liberty of noting your about page.
Terrorist leaders are just men, mortal men. Bullets can kill them.
unlike Hollywood that works with fake guns and explosions...Iranian clerics beleive that is they make global chaos with real weapons and violence - Mahdi will reveal himself...these are dangerous people not to be discounted...
I believe that the Anti-Christ IS Islam.
But if you need a specific person, then it would be Mohammed (the prophet).
They are the opposite of Jesus Christ and his teachings.
