Episode 672: When will the AntiChrist appear Part 7

Hello everyone. In this morning's Bible study we begin an in-depth look at the person hood of the AntiChrist and the false prophet.

These two men will play a prominent and pivotal roles in the coming Tribulation period. Who are these men? Where are they from? Can we identify them from the scriptures?

The answer is no. We are only allowed to identify their nature, character, and actions. The LORD God in His great wisdom determined not to reveal any other details to us concerning these men.

We know that the AntiChrist will be identified as "the Assyrian". We know that the false prophet will be Jewish. Wait, what??? The false prophet will be Jewish. Of course he will be Jewish.

Prophets in scriptures are all identified with the Jewish nation of Israel. Some may say, well doesn't the scriptures declare that there were prophets associated with the Church?

The answer is yes, there were prophets associated with the Church however these were prophets that made the transition between the two ages. These men were already Jewish prophets prior to the cross then they became and remained prophets in the early Church.

Peter made it clear when he through the revelation of the Holy Spirit said this, speaking of the spread of destructive false doctrines.

2 Peter 2:1 - But there were also FALSE PROPHETS AMONG THE PEOPLE (what people? Israel), even as there WILL BE FALSE (prophets? NO!!!) TEACHERS AMONG YOU, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.

The prophets were always associated with Israel and always will be. The apostles and prophets were the foundation of both the Old Testament and the New Testament. The revelation of the Great God and Savior is completely told through these men and the revelation is complete therefore there is no further need for either.

Why not? Because every believer is now filled with the Holy Spirit, having direct access to our Heavenly Father, in addition to possessing the anointing that comes directly from the Holy Spirit living inside of them.

Nevertheless, the world will continue to implode as more and more lawlessness against the word of God continues. The world will ultimately reap what its inhabitants have sown.

God will release Satan and almost every demon to wreak havoc on the earth. Men will be seeking to die because of all the wickedness that consumes and dominates the world.

The AntiChrist arises with the promise of a false peace then the false Jewish prophet deceives his own people into believing that this Satan filled man is the real Jewish Messiah and not Jesus.

How will these events unfold? Will the true Church be around to see it?

Today's study is 1 hour and 20 minutes in duration. I have broken it into five segments. This is segment 2 of 4 titled When will the AntiChrist appear? Part 7
