that government will act (soon to come) in the favor of the Antichrist
So.... you support giving government more power and precedent to control more and more aspects of it’s citizens’ lives? You want to give it religious legitimacy which will be used to trick those weak in faith or lacking faith into believing the evil it will do is godly and just when the Antichrist is in control?
You contradict yourself here. If govt. is going to be used as a tool of the Antichrist shouldn’t we be doing all we can to deny it power and scope? Kinda like what Libertarians have been trying to do?

I support the government in doing what the Apostle Paul said that governmental authorities are supposed to do — which is go after evil and evil-doers and instill *terror* into them, for their *evil deeds*. That’s all. Just do what the Apostle Paul said, no more and no less...
We know what is “evil” from what the Bible tells us. Prostitution is in that list. Instill *terror* into those evil-doers for their evil deeds....

The Antichrist is going to come to power because God has *granted* him the ability to do so. If it were not for God granting that, he would not be able to do that.
In opposing the Antichrist, we oppose *evil* and *evil deeds*. We already have those evil deeds defined by God. There’s no question of what God says about prostitution. So, do as Paul said and instill *terror* into those evil-doers of prostitution...
