I'm an atheist or maybe more agnostic than I know. So if an Antichrist really rises, what will you do when it comes time for the mark of the beast. Will you take it or not? You realize that if you don't, not only are you not going to be able to buy anything but most likely you will be killed on sight. Also I have a second question: Who do you think the Antichrist will be? Bush is not an option. He's not stout enough. The Antichrist from what I understand will be a stout man or strong-looking man with a great voice that will gain him many allies. Also I think he supposed to been born in Austria. Don't know that part for sure.

To Nuno. This is where I see myself. If hell exists I have only one possible way of turning around and getting off the highway to hell. I can't change my thoughts and my beliefs so easily like others. The only way would be to erase my memory and make me a christian drone. I don't think its possible and if it is, I couldn't afford it. Either way I'm going to hell, so I ask myself which way lets me live longer until my punishment. The mark.

As for the Austria part, I'm not sure entirely I remember someone talking about the antichrist being born in Austria or some other place with a similar name. People originally specualted that it would be Adolf Hitler but he's dead now.

No you won't be able to purchase anything unless you take the "Mark". Who knows exactly what the mark will be, but I do know that during this time God will mark His people too.
Yes people will be killed for following God, but to me that is OK, because if I'm righteous enough I will enjoy an everlasting life.
Bush is not the Antichrist (LOL) There are alot of people who want to sprout this info out, but I'm sad to say that He is not the one. The Antichrist will be loved and looked upon by all, for he will bring forth a "False" since of peace among everyone throw out the world. The Antichrist is here, and laying in wait to the right time comes for him to reveal himself.
You just have to watch out for the one who states that he is the one, and all come to me(where ever he is) He will preform miraculous things to try to prove himself.
Read Revelations
Edit:
There is no where in the Bible that states where the Antichrist will be born at.

Hi chorssk. The Antichrist is Satan. But first we need to read some passages from the Bible to understand. God tells us in 2 Corinthians 11:13-15:
"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works."
God is speaking about these false apostles who will look to the world like a True Believer or an Apostle of Christ (verse 13) As Satan is transformed into an angel of light. These are the many false Apostles today who want to destroy the true church of believers. God confirms who the Antichrist is in 1 John 4:3:
"and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.”
Many people try to predict who the Antichrist will be. But God tells us in the Bible the Antichrist was present when the Bible was being written, so without a doubt he is in the world today.

lol, Bush is not the antichrist. He hasn't wanted anyone to take the mark of allegiance. Maybe somewhere down the road, I see America as being that allegiance through capitalism and having a world wide community of commerce, only accessible by having the mark as some sort of citizen, but it hasn't happened yet.
If you are so concerned by your fate in the end, why are you so unsure of yourself? I am not concerned because the Bible tells us that that mark is for unbelievers and thier lives are like a roulette table. Take a stand and accept Christ, it sounds like you know a lot more than just the Bible is just there.....

Some maybe most Christians believe that the rapture will take place before the antichrist comes into power. The Bible teaches he will be gay and get a mortal wound to his head of which he will come back to life from. He will appear to solve all the worlds problems. etc

I will not take the mark. Dying for Christ is far better than living for Satan. As to who the anti-christ will be...who knows? He will come as a friend...as someone who the whole world will see as a man of peace but he will be deceiving everyone at first....even some Christians if they are not on their guard. The general concensus (not specified in the Bible) is that it is likely he will come from somewhere in the old Roman empire. That would include a lot of territory.

The anti Christ is a woman. Noone expects that. When the bible was drafted to make paganism illegal they took the power of fertility (women) and gave diety power to the male image.
She is well protected. She lives in the same area that the bible was written. She has a mass fortune. She is of the bloodline. She has no family. She is heavily gaurded and few pictures or articles exist of her. She can crumble economys by withdrawing her funds.
The Harlot is mentioned in the bible. She has killed millions and the guy above said it himself. She is a Syerian or is it Siren? as in greek gods? Sirens draw you in like a prostitue does with their charm and beauty. Follow up on that, I think you will be amused.

There is no Antichrist or any other kind of Christ. I think they pretty well proved that when they found the crown of thorns mixed in with the bones. Still there are some of you poor die hards who wont believe. Well enjoy your fantasy.

he is alive today but not come to power yet, but his time is very near.
I will not take the mark. Being Indian, I know how to survive, for my people live off the land w/o the aid of white mans "stuff".
If they choose to kill me, so be it. I will return with YAHWEH as a soldier just as Revelation 15.2 states.

Whatever you do PLEASE Do not take the mark - no matter what that "person" promises to you or your family.
I would rather die, in the Name of Yahweh and Yeshua, than take that blasphemers mark. Not totally sure where he will come from, but I do know that ANYONE who follows him will be doomed for eternity.
