UNMASKING THE BEAST
The Antichrist
Part 10
Things the Antichrist will Do
that will Mark his Characteristics
TEN
He
shall confirm a covenant with many [peace treaty with Israel and the Arab
states] for seven years but in the middle of it he will bring an end to
sacrifice and offering.
And he shall confirm
the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall
cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of
abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that
determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Dan 9:27 KJV
The antichrist will make a seven-year (one week) treaty
with the people of Israel, and a satellite of Arab states, that’s why the
prophecy uses the phrase: “he shall confirm a covenant with many.” But after
half that time, he will break his pledge and stop the Jews from all their sacrifices
and their offerings; then, as a climax to all his terrible deeds, he will
utterly defile the sanctuary of God. But in God's time and Plan, His Judgment
will be poured out upon this evil one.
The NIV Bible used the sentence, “…on a wing [of the temple] he will set up an
abomination that causes desolation…”
Chapter 8 prophetically reveals him as “the little
horn” which magnified itself to be equal with “The Prince of the host”
The antichrist is a ‘defiler,’ and ‘desolator,’ his
armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and will abolish the
daily sacrifice. Then they will set up the abomination that causes desolation;
this will last for 2,300 evenings and mornings (8:14), but when his end is
determined, God’s wrath will be poured out on him.
In Revelation chapter 2, Jesus reveals that, Pergamum
is seat of satan's throne, where they still held to “the teaching of Balaam”
and “the teaching of the Nicolaitans” (the religion and doctrine of the antichrist).
Christ takes notice of the trials and difficulties
‘the church of Pergamos’ encountered:
“I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, v. 13
(KJV)
Now, that which added very much lustre to the good
works of this church was the circumstance of the place where this church was
planted, a place where satan's seat was.
This people dwelt where satan's seat was, where he
kept his court. The devil’s circuit is throughout the world, his headquarter is
Babylon; infamous for “the teaching of the Nicolaitans”—wickedness, sin,
idolatry, corruption and sexual immorality.
The religion and doctrine of “the man of sin” [the
antichrist] has held many bound in great delusion and deception, with a “New
World Order” which declares that “the antichrist” has power over 3
jurisdictions:
Heaven, the earth and purgatory.
The devil imitates everything God does; he has a
'false-trinity' strategy:
3 crowns
3 horses (colored white, red and black, which
produced a pale horse—the fourth)
3 stages of his mission, and
3 evil powers ('realm of authority')—the dragon
(satan), the beast (the antichrist), and the false prophet (second beast).
The New World Order (NWO) has three crowns locked up
in a glass treasure with a big locker, reserved for the man who will lead
Europe in politics and economy— “the antichrist,” in the near future, and
eventually rule the world through his ‘Mystery Babylon Empire.’
GOD ALMIGHTY makes
Himself known by “the water” (The Word), “the Blood” and “The Spirit” (I
Jn.5:8). The three are in agreement.
None of the first three riders in the first three
Seals had a name, but the fourth is called Death; he had no name earlier on,
but in the Fourth Seal is called Death, and hell was following close behind him
(see Rev.6).
The antichrist is ‘Death’—he is the messenger of death,
but Jesus Christ is Life—The Eternal Life.
