The Identity Of The End Times Anti-Christ
The Identity Of The End Times Anti-Christ
The Scriptural basis for identifying the Anti-Christ, who has been revealed to the world, the man of sin: understanding the scriptures and what it actually says about liars, vipers, adulterers, thieves and evil people, and in particular and of extremely great importance, the identity and characteristics of the Anti-Christ.
Who is he? Has the Anti-Christ been revealed? The answer is below.
Somehow, many have totally missed the man of sin embodied in person of Donald J. Trump, and the great falling away prophesied (2 Thessalonians 2:1-3) - "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition".
Donald J. Trump is that son of perdition, who is the son of Fred Christ Trump, who was the son of Fredrick Trump. Fredrick made his fortune operating restaurants and brothels. Born into this staggering wealth, Donald J. Trump lost it all repeatedly through bad business decisions, bankruptcies and bribery. Donald J. Trump married Melania Trump (nude model who's name means "black, dark").
Christ's warned his disciples about the deception of the elect: "For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect." (Matt 24:24).
Millions of Christians support the personification of evil occupying the White House, the "man of sin" who has been revealed. Many worship him and compare him to God and Christ. Their names are not written in the Book of Life.
Millions more marvel at the ascendancy of Trump, ignoring the warnings: "Those who dwell on the earth whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see the beast that was, and is not, and is to come." (Rev 17:8)
The collective failure to read, understood and grasp this truth is astounding; if they did, they would be trembling in fear at how they have been so greatly deceived. Trump is the Anti-Christ and he's about to turn on the world.
Revelation 17:1 - "And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters". Only one whore "sits upon many waters" in the entire world - which is the Statue of Liberty, the physical representation of America, which was modeled after a robed Muslim woman - https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/inspiration-for-statue-of-liberty-muslim-woman
Revelation 17:18 - "And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth" (Washington D.C.). Washington D.C.’s original name was Rome, Maryland, and a branch of the Potomac River was called Tiber Creek, which was named after the Tiber river in Rome. Like Rome, Washington D.C. has 7 hills, whose names are: Capitol Hill, Meridian Hill, Floral Hills, Forest Hills, Hillbrook, Hillcrest, and Knox Hill.
Washington D.C. rules over the kings of the Earth. This is the only country and capital that does so. Revelation 18 fully describes Babylon, and the world-wide commerce, wealth, occupation and suffering it causes throughout the Earth. All of the kings of the Earth have been forced to bow down to Babylon. This biblically detailed description of kings, ships, merchants, wealth and food only fits one country in all of human history - the United States of America.
The blind are leading the blind in America - straight into the pits of hell.
The Anti-Christ will have all kinds of supporters (not just Christians) who will promote him into high office and acclaim. These are also known as the "false prophets" in the bible. And yet, despite the vile nature, sins, behavior, words and deeds exhibited by Trump, these false prophets continue to endorse him as if he were God.
But we who know the truth can test all things, and that test has been proven, over and over again. Donald J. Trump has deceived the whole world with his claims, even the Church, which has now endorsed this man, never realizing that they are fulfilling biblical prophecy and are part of the Great Falling Away and apostasy.
The man of sin has now been revealed for all the world to see and he persecutes any who oppose him (which he is already doing), and be completely lawless (also doing), regarding not the women he has despised or abused, fulfilling the prophecy. No other President in history (anywhere in the world) has fulfilled the biblical characteristics and timing of the Anti-Christ as has Donald J. Trump.
His fans are deceived, destined for the pits of hell, taking upon themselves the sign of the Anti-Christ in their hands and in the foreheads (through their adulation, clapping and arm waving, their worship with their hearts and minds of Donald J. Trump). They are now forever branded with "666", the Mark of the Beast and will suffer a fiery eternal torment.
Only the chosen few have remained steadfast against this rising evil, recognizing him for what he truly is, while the world now trembles before him. If you have not yet made up your mind about Donald J. Trump and the Whore of Babylon, save yourself and come apart from him and his worldly deception. The prophecies are now being fulfilled!
Signs of the Anti-Christ
a) Supported by false prophets (Matt 24:24). Most of the Church world has endorsed Trump, many of these pastors, evangelists and television figures are actually false prophets. Many have very sordid histories, including fraud, adultery, deceit, bankruptcy and the worship of money. Most are quite wealthy like Trump, a demonstration of their love of mammon and the shallow phoniness of their ministries and personal discipleship.
b) Performing great signs and wonders (Matt 24:24). These are the endless lies and claims made by Trump, which now number in the tens of thousands of documented deceptions. Trump has broadcast these to the entire world, constantly making claims on an hourly basis through speeches, Twitter, television and other forms of social media that are simply not true. His grandiose claims are legendary, the world has never seen a man like this. These are the great "signs and wonders" that his followers believe, but they are actually grand deceptions.
c) Trump has never asked God for forgiveness. Trump has publicly claimed he's NEVER asked God for forgiveness, believing himself to be a non-sinner, never in error, and most importantly, has no need to be forgiven. Only Satan or the Antichrist would have such an opinion. Or someone who thinks he's equal to God Himself. https://www.quora.com/How-often-does-Trump-go-to-church
d) Jerusalem is now the capital of Israel. Trump has agreed to making Jerusalem the capital, and the American Embassy is also moving there (a critical sign of the end times).
e) Exalts himself (Daniel 11:37) as God. Trump has publicly proclaimed himself to be the Chosen One. He's sought after adoration and worship, even changed his campaign speeches to this end. Nearly all of his public speaking engagements are now "rally's" designed to create cult-like worship of Trump, complete with actors, music and hand-selected supporters. No other world leader has done this except for Hitler, Mussolini and other dictators, but what is different in Trump's case, is he believes he is King, and so do his many of his followers (the King Cyrus cult of Trump is worth noting).
f) Arrogantly blasphemes (Daniel 11:36). Trump's Twitter tirades, and belittling others during his speeches are well-known. He's attacked everyone, agencies within government, world leaders, the handicap, other races, women, accusers, etc., always comparing himself as being utterly faultless and without blame or responsibility. Worse yet, he claims he is totally unaccountable for his words, actions or deeds, and believes he is above the law. He's even claimed he could murder someone and not be held accountable. These are all grievous sins in the eyes of God. He is not contrite, or humble and has a proud, narcissistic spirit and personality unlike any other world leader.
g) Disregards the god of his fathers (Daniel 11:37). Trump's worship of money is well documented and he despises everyone who isn't rich like himself. Trump's "religion" is himself, and his money, he also considers himself the most important person alive, he claims to know everything about anything, claiming he's an expert in all subjects, and has put money before everything else. His "fathers" god (grandfather, the word is plural) was Protestant. Trump claims he's a Presbyterian, yet almost never goes to a church. He also does not live a Christian life in any way, shape or form, yet his supporters do not care. Trump uses his pretend Christianity as a cloak to manipulate his followers. Trump has no religion, despite his pretense. https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2017/politics/state/donald-trump-religion/
Every decision he's made has been to enrich himself and his family, which he has put first and foremost during his time in office. But what is worse, he has used the Church and their loyal but unjustified support to advance his own interests, while almost never setting foot inside of one.
He claims to be Christian but his life, acts, words, deeds, attitudes and worship of money reveal his true heart and intent, which is 100% contradictory to a true Christian life. He married a porn model, cheated on all of his wives, has had numerous affairs, has been married multiple times, committed numerous acts of adultery, rape and sexual assault, bribed his way into numerous deals and business fiasco's, and been sued literally hundreds of times. He's cheated and defrauded thousands of people in his career, including employees, contractors, suppliers, banks, etc., and has gone bankrupt repeatedly. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/politics/a29514931/trump-groped-models-backstage-all-the-presidents-women-excerpts/ - all before becoming President, and yet he was still elected into office!
The ONLY way all that was possible was to be a part of God's plan who will allow the Anti-Christ to come and to reign for a short while.
The world has NEVER had a world leader that has this type of horrific track record and been installed into high office - and never as the leader of the world.
h) Daniel 11:37 - Disregards the desire of women (the Antichrist will hate what women desire). Trump has ridiculed the rights of women, abused them, with claims of rape, "pu**y grabbing" and worse against him, because he can get away with this and he knows it. There are still dozens of pending assault charges ranging from improper touching to rape pending in the courts right now against Trump. It is statistically impossible that these charges are all false, and most of them were lodged long before he became President. All of them have been suppressed in the courts while he is in the White House.
i) Worships military power (Daniel 11:38-39). Trump has used military power to further his own ends, constantly reminding the world that he can do whatever he wants. He's claimed that the United States is the "greatest power on Earth" which isn't true, two other nations equal or easily exceed America's military forces (Russia and China, with far larger populations than ours).
j) Will invade the Middle East (Daniel 11:40-43), “at the time of the end.” Trump promised that he would withdraw our troops from the Middle East but that did not happen, he increased troop strength, bombed numerous countries (7), including Syria, Iraq and now threatens Iran, assassinating Iran's top military commander. The invasion "with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over" has already happened (but it's not over, World War III has begun).
k) "I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things." (Daniel 7:8).
Note that it does not say that the "little horn" will uproot the other three horns; this will happen before Anti-Christ comes into power. Iraq, Lebanon, Syria were all attacked prior to Trump's ascension to the Presidency. Trump certainly speaks great things (constantly). No other world leader has done this on the scale and magnitude that Trump has.
l) Will start a world war (Rev. 6:1-8), unleashing the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. This depicts a period of war, massive starvation and suffering throughout the world - unfolding now under Trump. They're destined to escalate in their scope and severity according to the bible, despite his many promises in the past to avoid conflicts. Trump has actually increased bombing more than any other President. Trump has now attacked a nuclear power, Iran, with a very capable and large army, this is the start of World War III. This too has never happened in human history.
m) He will breaking the covenant he confirmed with the nation Israel (Dan. 9:27). Trump has promised to support Israel, however, we can fully expect him to break that promise.
n) Trump received the "deadly head wound" (Rev. 13:3) "and all the world wondered after the beast" because though he was impeached as the head of State (wounded), that would have removed a normal man from power, however, it did not. The world is amazed at the Beast. He is the only President to have been impeached in his first term, but the government has become powerless to stop him. His deadly head wound as the head of State of the world's most powerful nation hasn't removed any of his powers.

Antichrist most likely will be a Westerner who will invade Israel in order to proclaim himself God in the Temple. In reaction to this invasion, Egypt and Syria will counterattack. Egypt and North Africa will fall before him, and his troops will occupy much of the Middle East. This only describes the United States as the historical record of recent years shows. Africa has also now been occupied now by U.S. troops.
Thus the Antichrist will use Western military might to invade Israel and the Middle East. There he will conquer Israel (in time), erect an image of himself in the Temple, and demand the worship of the world. It would take a very narcisstic personality to dare do such a thing, but we find such a personality in Donald J. Trump.
In doing so, he will blaspheme not only the true God, but also all other gods, in order to establish a dictatorship that worships him alone. Although nations will resist him, demonic influences will gather these nations together in Israel to fight against the true God. There the Antichrist and the armies of the world will be destroyed.
Daniel wrote, he (Antichrist) "shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished; for that which is determined shall be done" (Daniel 11:36). For all Antichrist’s claims and all his conquests, he still will be utterly and irrevocably subject to God.
Trump believes he is the Chosen One - https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/21/i-am-the-chosen-one-trump-proclaims-as-he-defends-china-trade-war.html. He has also stated repeatedly during his speeches, presentations and appearances that he is the only person on Earth who can solve the world's problems. His constant bragging about himself is unlike anything the world has ever seen. The false prophets that have endorsed the Anti-Christ (Trump) have also widely claimed that he is the "chosen one".
Thus the character of the Antichrist can be summarized as one who will try to establish himself as God, seeking to rule the world strictly for his own glory and desire for power. In doing so, he will deride all known religion and proclaim a new order for the world, with himself at its head. All who do not submit will be crushed. As revealed in Revelation 13, the Antichrist ultimately will receive his power from Satan, who will seek to rule the world through him much as God the Father rules the world through his Son, Jesus Christ.
The Career of the Antichrist (Daniel 11:40-45)
1. Invasion of the Middle East (vv. 40-43). Verse 40 places these events "at the time of the end." This most easily describes the last half of the seven-year Tribulation period. Antichrist will invade the Middle East and conquer Israel, breaking the covenant he confirmed with the nation (Dan. 9:27). He will capture half the city of Jerusalem (Zech. 14:2), including the Temple (Rev. 11:1-2), and will try to exterminate the rest of the people of Israel. But God will protect them (Rev. 12:6, 1316). It is significant that Antichrist is distinguished from the king of the north and the king of the south. Although he is typical of Antiochus IV, a king of the north (Syria), he will not be Syrian. Antichrist most likely will be a Westerner who will invade Israel in order to proclaim himself God in the Temple. In reaction to this invasion, Egypt and Syria will counterattack. Egypt and North Africa will fall before him, and his troops will occupy much of the Middle East.
2. The End of the Antichrist (vv. 44-45). Not only will Antichrist’s invasion of Israel spark resistance from the Middle Eastern nations, but other nations to the north and east apparently will come to attack him. This gathering of the armies of the world is reflected in Revelation 16:12-16. There the sixth bowl judgment will open the way for the kings of the east to move toward Israel. Then the “three unclean spirits, like frogs” (demons) will perform supernatural signs to gather all the nations of the world to Israel, where they will camp in the valley of Armageddon. Apparently these armies initially will gather in Israel to oppose the Antichrist. But through demonic influence, they will unite instead to fight against Israel and the true and living God.
As pictured in Daniel 11:45, Antichrist will pitch his tent on the “holy mountain,” the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. There he will come to his end. The Lord Jesus Himself will descend, destroy the armies at Armageddon, and stand on the Mount of Olives to rescue the Jewish people in Jerusalem who, by this time, have recognized Him as the Messiah (Zech. 12:1-14; 14:1-5; Rev. 19:11-21). Thus the stone made “without hands,” pictured in Daniel 2:44-45, will destroy this Gentile rule over Israel and crush this last-ditch Satanic rebellion against God. Then God will set up a Kingdom of righteousness on earth that will endure for 1000 years (Rev. 20).
Antichrist…will conquer Israel, erect an image of himself in the Temple, and demand the worship of the world.
