THE REAL ANTICHRIST

The antichrist truth can only be found using the Bible and actual historical facts.  There are so many wild speculations as to who the antichrist is, from Presidents and Princes, to movie stars.  There is no end to the amount of speculation out there.  But what are these speculations based on?  Nothing but guesswork.  By guessing, we will get nowhere, so we must turn to the Word of God in the Bible to find the real truth about the Bible antichrist.  The first appearance of the end time antichrist in the Bible is the little horn power in Daniel 7.  This little horn then becomes the beast in Revelation 13, and then we find in Revelation 17 'Mystery Babylon the Great' who is riding the beast.  You will find as you read through this page that the little horn and the sea beast in Revelation 13 are the same kingdoms/powers.  We learned from the little horn in Daniel study that Papal Rome (ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH) was the only kingdom power that matched the identity of the little horn.

Characteristics of the Little Horn Power

Daniel 7:24 .....'And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise.' ..... So the horns represent kings/kingdoms.

Daniel 7:8 .....'there came up among them another little horn.' ..... This kingdom is a 'little' kingdom.  The Vatican state is it's own country.  Its a little kingdom.

Daniel 7:8 .....'there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up.' ..... The Roman Catholic Church when it rose to power had three other kingdoms destroyed because they would not bow down to her authority.  Those three kingdoms were the Heruli, the Vandals, and the Ostrogoths.

Daniel 7:25 .....'And he shall speak great words against the most High.' ..... The Roman Catholic Church leaders speak amazing blasphemies against God, proclaiming that the Pope and God are the same, that the Pope is Jesus Christ Himself on earth.  They say that salvation can only be achieved through the Catholic Church.  Download Papal Quotes with hundreds of blasphemous words from the Catholic Church.

Daniel 7:25 .....'shall wear out the saints of the most High.' ..... The Roman Catholic Church slaughtered over 50 MILLION Christians during her reign of terror between 538 - 1798.  Download this book: Foxes Book of Martyrs and read the shocking truth about the crimes of the Roman Catholic Church.

Daniel 7:25 .....'and think to change times and laws.' ..... The Roman Catholic Church boasts about changing the 7th Day Sabbath, God's Holy Day, to the first day of the week.  In the past they also removed the second commandment to do with idols from their 'Catechism for Converts' book.  The Roman Catholic Church have certainly thought to change God's time and Law.

Daniel 7:25 .....'and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.' ..... This time period is equal to 1260 days, but in Bible prophecy a day equals a literal year (see Ezekiel 4:6 and Numbers 14:34).  So this time period is actually 1260 years.  The Roman Catholic Church were in power from 538AD to 1798AD.  1260 years exactly!

"Three times and a half; that is, for 1260 solar years, reckoning as time for a calendar year of 360 days, and a day for a solar year. After which the judgment is to sit, and they shall take away his dominion, not at once, but by degrees, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.” (Sir Isaac Newton, Observations upon the Prophecies of Daniel and the Apocalypse of St. John, part 1, chap. 8, p. 114. London: J. Darby and T. Browne, 1733)

As you will have seen from the little horn page, no other kingdom or institution matches the little horn like the Papal Church of Rome does.

Characteristics of the Sea Beast in Revelation 13

Revelation 13:1,5,6 .....'and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.  And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies.  And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God' ..... So this beast is blasphemous.  We learned above that the Roman Catholic Church speaks great blasphemies.

Revelation 13:5 .....'and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.' ..... This is the same time period as the little horn.  1260 days.  But as we learned in Bible prophecy a day equals a literal year.  So this again is 1260 years, the time that the Roman Catholic Church had global power between 538 - 1798.  See day for a year principle for more info on this.

Revelation 13:7 .....'And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.' ..... Again, confirmation of the persecution by the hands of the Roman Catholic Church during her reign, where she killed over 50 million Christians.

Characteristics of Babylon the Great

Revelation 17:1 .....'I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters.' ..... A woman in the Bible represents a church (2 Corinthians 11:2).  Water in prophecy represents peoples, nations and tongues (Rev. 17:15).  So this church has a great number of people in it.  The Roman Catholic Church is by far the largest denomination in the world with over 1 Billion members.

Revelation 17:3 .....'So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.' ..... This beast is the sea beast from Revelation 13.  So the woman (church) is sat upon (in control of) the beast.  The beast is the civil power of the Papacy, and the woman represents the people of the church itself.  So the Roman Church is in control of and directing the civil power.

Revelation 17:4 .....'And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour.' ..... The two main colours of the Roman Catholic Church bishops and cardinals are PURPLE AND SCARLET.

Revelation 17:4 .....'and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls.' ..... The Roman Catholic Church is one of the wealthiest institutions in the world.  This of course is covered up though.

Revelation 17:6 .....'And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.' ..... Again we have the persecution of the saints by the hands of the Roman Catholic Church.  Please note that the estimate of 50 million Christians slain by the Roman Church is a very conservative one.

Revelation 17:9 .....'The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.' ..... The Vatican is based in Rome.  Rome was known as the city of seven hills (mounts).

Revelation 19:18 .....'And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.' ..... There is only one religious institution that reigns over the kings of the earth, and that is the Roman Catholic Church.

The end time antichrist system is the ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.  No other kingdom or institution fits the above characteristics perfectly the way the Roman Catholic Church does.  If you are part of this Church then I would lovingly ask you to study the above, find out the truth and come out of her.  God is calling His people out, so that they do not share in her sins and punishment.

Note about 538AD:  The Papal Church gained religious and civil power when Emperor Justinian issued a decree making the Pope head of all churches.

Note about 1798AD:  Napoleon's army marched into Rome and captured the Pope, ending the reign of the Papacy.
