EXCELLENT POST AND QUITE BIBLICALLY ACCURATE:

PRAISE GOD!


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?

•The antichrist will be a man - Daniel 7:24-25
•He will confirm a covenant for 7 years - Daniel 9:27
•He will rise among 10 kings - Daniel 7:8
•He will uproot 3 kings from the original 10 kings to gain political power - Daniel 7:8
•His 10 nation union will merge into a world government which he will dominate - Revelations 13:1-2
•He will ascend to power on a platform of peace. By peace, he will destroy many - Daniel 8:25
•He will be promoted and exalted by a miracle working religious partner (false prophet) - Revelations 13:11-12
•He was, and is not, and yet is - Revelations 17:8
•The world government over which he rules will be a red (communistic or socialistic) government - Revelations 17:14
•The antichrist will be preceded by 7 kings or rulers.
•He will have a mouth speaking great things. Very boastful - Daniel 7:8
•His look will be more stout than his fellows - Daniel 7:20
•He will have a fierce countenance - Daniel 8:23
•He will understand puzzling things - Daniel 8:23
•He will cause craft to prosper - Daniel 8:25
•He apparently assumes world dominating power 3 1/2 years after he confirms the covenant. He then will continue to reign for 42 months - Revelations 13:5
•The Abomination of Desolation is the event that signals the beginning of this final 42 months - Daniel 9:27
•He opposes God - 2 Thessalonians 2:4
•He will speak marvelous things against the God of gods - Daniel 11:36
•He will exalt himself above all that is called God - 2 Thessalonians 2:4
•He will sit in the temple of God - 2 Thessalonians 2:4
•He will claim to be God (or an incarnation of God) - 2 Thessalonians 2:4
•He will take away the daily sacrifices from the temple - Daniel 11:31
•He will plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain - Daniel 11:45
•He will have power to make war with the saints and to overcome them - Revelations 13:7
•He will continue this war with the saints for 3 1/2 years - Daniel 7:21, 25
•This time of Great Tribulation is launched upon the Earth by the antichrist at the Abomination of Desolation. - Matthew 24:15,21.
•During this time, the antichrist will scatter the power of the holy people - Daniel 12:7
•He will rule a mighty and strong kingdom - Daniel 7:7
•He was given power over all kindreds, tongues and nations - Revelations 13:7
•His kingdom will devour the whole earth - Daniel 7:23
•He will have great military power that will stand behind him, to enforce his laws - Daniel 11:31
•He will try to change times and laws; and they will be given into his power for 3 1/2 years - Daniel 7:25
•He will give great honor to the God of forces, with gold, silver, jewels, etc - Daniel 11:38
•He will prosper in everything that he does - Daniel 8:24
•He will not regard the God of his fathers - Daniel 11:37
•He will not regard the desire of women - Daniel 11:37
•The mark of the beast will be the amount of his name - Revelations 14:11
•All that dwell upon the Earth will worship him, except those who’s names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life - Revelations 15:2
•He will have an image made after him - Revelations 15:2
•His coming will be after the workings of Satan - 2 Thessalonians 2:8
•He will fight against Jesus Christ at Armageddon (and loose I might add!) - Revelations 17:14
•He will stand against the Prince of princes - Daniel 8:25
•The Lord will consume him with the spirit of his mouth (which is the Word of God) - 2 Thessalonians 2:8
•The Lord will destroy him with the brightness of his coming (which is his glory) - 2 Thessalonians 2:8
•He will be cast alive into the lake of fire - Revelations 19:20
•He will be tormented day and night for ever and ever - Revelations 20:10
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?

And I bet not one of the myriad of passages quoted in that post has ever been read or understood in context by any of you. Let’s take one for example:

“He will confirm a covenant for 7 years - Daniel 9:27”

This is so blatantly pulled out of context it’s laughable!

Here’s what the passage says:

24 “Seventy weeks are determined For your people and for your holy city, To finish the transgression, To make an end of sins, To make reconciliation for iniquity, To bring in everlasting righteousness, To seal up vision and prophecy, And to anoint the Most Holy.

25 “Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the command To restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince, There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; The street shall be built again, and the wall, Even in troublesome times.

26 “And after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself; And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; But in the middle of the week He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate, Even until the consummation, which is determined, Is poured out on the desolate.” Daniel 9:24-27 (NKJV)

The antecedent noun to which the pronoun “he” refers to is Messiah, NOT “the prince.” “The people” is the subject of the independent clause that immediately precedes “He”, so “he” cannot refer to the plural “people”, neither can it refer to the object of the propositional phrase “of the prince.”

The covenant Messiah confirmed for the “one week” (in which He was actually crucified) was this:

“I, the Lord, have called You [Christ] in righteousness, And will hold Your hand; I will keep You and give You as a covenant to the people, As a light to the Gentiles, To open blind eyes, To bring out prisoners from the prison, Those who sit in darkness from the prison house. I am the Lord, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.

Isaiah 42:6-8 (NKJV)

That is the covenant Messiah confirmed by His coming. And He further strengthened it by shedding His own blood:

27 Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

Matthew 26:27-28 (NKJV)

Daniel 9:27 doesn’t even begin to discuss any so-called anti-Christ. You’ve all been fed a lie by people profiting from your ignorance of scripture.

So now the Antichrist was Caesar Augustus? Was he thrown alive into the Lake of Fire by Jesus Christ?

How about the 7 million Jews killed during the holocaust, was Satan bound then?
