So now the Antichrist was Caesar Augustus? Was he thrown alive into the Lake of Fire by Jesus Christ? Where is that in the Bible?

The Bible, not all of your sacred man-written books.

And did all of your various Antichrists meet the following Biblical requirements for the Antichrist?

God tells us that the Antichrist will have an image that can speak:

He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive the mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is 666." (Revelations 13:11-18)

Which one of your list of old Roman Empire Antichrists forced everyone to receive a mark in their forehead or right hand and had the technology to create an image of himself that could speak? Where is the Scriptural evidence for that?

And God also tells us that the Antichrist will rule over the entire world, not just the Roman Empire:

And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. Then he opened his mouth in blaspheming against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. And it was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given to him over every tribe, tongue and nation. And all who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." (Revelations 13:1-10)

Which one of your old Roman Empire Antichrists ruled over every tribe, tongue and nation? Where can we find that in Scripture?

Which one of your various Antichrists meets all of the Biblical requirements for the Antichrist?

“So now the Antichrist was Caesar Augustus? Was he thrown alive into the Lake of Fire by Jesus Christ? Where is that in the Bible?”

Again, you keep attributing words to me that I have never written. The point of my post about Caesar Augustus - which you missed entirely - was to get you to understand that the word “world” means something completely different to us today than it did to the people living in Jesus’ time!

But you’re more intent on trying to smear me than you are in thinking these things through.

Get back to me when you understand what “ecumenical” meant in Jesus’ day.

Wow...so many verses, so many out of context quotes.

No wonder you’re confused.

Great description of Anti-Christ Giovanna....your arguments I support as well.

Also to keep in mind is the 'New Age" or today's "Spiritualism's'...which is very loosely knit organization so to speak..is fast moving throughout our nation all bound together by a common vision of a coming new age of global enlightenment...the "all is one" movement...who believe in transformation of our planet.

Many are anti-nuclear activists, ecology oriented (save the planet) who are of course behind the "green movement" worldwide. Their ideas that a united global community will stand against materialism. Most reject Christianity and are getting their message across loud and clear!

...and I believe satan is the master of this game we see playing out thru them as their political clout now has weight in our Capital...they are seated in power. EPA comes to mind.

God tells us that the Antichrist will have an image that can speak:

He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive the mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is 666.” (Revelations 13:11-18)

And all who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” (Revelations 13:1-10)

Which one of your old Roman Empire Antichrists ruled over every tribe, tongue and nation? Where can we find that in Scripture?

Which one of your various Antichrists meets all of the Biblical requirements for the Antichrist?

Do you have a source for that info or was it all your own Biblical digging?
