Did you know that the Bible speaks of a future country and its leader, Gog and Magog, that will lead the armies of Armageddon? Traditional Christian thought claims this will be Russia. However, Messianic Judaism and 1st Century Christians taught that this would be the area, which is the modern day nation of Turkey. Since the seventh century, this area and its leaders have created extremely violent Islamic Caliphates, that have been extremely brutal toward Christians and Jews. The final leader of this end time caliphate is believed to be the reemergence of the 12 Imam, the direct descendent of or even Mohammed himself. ISIS and the attempted coup, in Turkey, this past Friday, are birth pangs, of this coming caliphate and it's anti-Christian leader, the 12th Imam. known by Christians worldwide, as The Beast of Revelation, the AntiChrist.

I have always believed it had something to do with the Islamic religion, the carrying forth of the Isaac and Ishmael spiritual opposition.
ReplyDeleteHi Brenda,
ReplyDeleteI agree. The descendants of Ishmael have always been a pain in the side of God's people. If you want a good read, check out, "God's War On Terror", by Walid Shoebat. It's very enlightening.
Thank you Keith.
DeleteHi Keith,
ReplyDeleteI don't think that it is an Imam, since Islam was established about 600 X years after Christ.
I have been posting that the antichrist became known shortly after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ in AD 67-76 by Linus the first Pope and after by the second Pope Anacletus AD 76-88 etc. till to days Pope Francis.
The reason is, because ALL Popes have taken the title 'HOLY FATHER', the title of witch rightfully belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ, and therefore the one who holds that title is the antichrist.
Hi Paul,
ReplyDeleteThe identity of the antichrist can be known by the company he keeps, such as the whiore that rides his back, mentioned in Revelation. Women are consistently used to symbolize religion, in the Bible. The whore that rides the beast could be Catholicism but I feel that it points to Islam. I believe this is quite evident when God reveals that many people will lose their heads as a result of this one world religion. I think we can both agree that Islam can be easily identified by beheadings.
The Catholic Church is better represented by the church at Pergamus, from the seat of Satan, to the idols, to the stumbling blocks, to the practicing of the deeds of Nikolaians. It fits like a glove.
I agree with what you have said here Keith.
DeleteThanks Brenda! Praise God for revealing his truth to us.
