Nero was not who tempted Christ ... You know the Old Serpent ... Remember the temple dedicated to the Serpent right there in the bowels of the Vatican??? Nero was never tempting to the ‘whole’ world and Nero never snapped his fingers and made lightening snap... in front of anyone. The ‘anti-Christ’ is the entity not flesh never will be flesh fake Jesus .. Paul even quoted IKings 19:18 Yet I reserve seven thousand in Israel-all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him.”

Romans 11, written by Paul from the tribe of Benjamin ... verse 4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men,
who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.

Nero was never called Baal... Some people being blinded already bend a knee to Baal.

The antichrist in the book of the Apocalypse is not your pastor, Satann.

The antichrist in the book of Revelation is clearly stated as

Wisdom is needed here; one who understands can calculate the number of the beast, for it is a number that stands for a person. His number is six hundred and sixty-six.

666 is the Gematria for Nero.

Paul very clearly writes that the people of Christ are the new Israel

7 What then? What Israel was seeking it did not attain, but the elect attained it; the rest were hardened,

That’s in Roman’s 11. You shouldn’t read in excerpts. The chapter talks clearly of the greater, expanded Israel that is Christianity. And it separates the Jesus movement from the Pharisees who are likened to the followers of baal.

You do realise that Ba’al is a title meaning Lorr. The god Hadad from northern Canaan had that title. So yeah, nero too had the title baal.

But in the context of Roman’s 11, this refers to the Pharisees

Paul teaches in Romans 11 is that a “remnant” of Israel has passed into the New Covenant, therefore, God has not cast them off. The Apostle offers himself as an example of such a one. Those of the nation of Israel who rejected Jesus are compared to the ancient Israelites who worshipped Baal, while the Christian Jews are compared to the “seven thousand men, that have not bowed their knees to Baal.” Saint Paul never claims that the election of the Jews is permanent in the sense that they remain the chosen people even if they fail to accept Christ. What he did teach is that (1) they were the chosen nation in the Old Testament, (2) some of them — a “remnant” — have passed into the Church of the New Testament, and are therefore not cast off, and (3), the nation, as a whole, will also return to serving God in the true religion when they are corporately “ingrafted” back into it by accepting Christ.
