Has anyone heard of "jose luis de jesus miranda" or the "growing in grace" society?? its been all over the news. This is a man who was a former deroin addict and has served numerous jail terms. He also claimed he was the apostle Paul for numerous years, then he came forward with the claim that he was Jesus Christ, God in human form. He has millions of followers believing in this unbelievable lie. The followers stage violent protests where they smash statues and burn pictures of the "inferior" Jesus, Jesus of Nazareth, and they destroy bibles from other beliefs. The guy wears nothing but armani suits, rolexes, and expensive jewlery, his demented daughter is the "accountant" of the cult, and he lives in a mult million dollar house in miami where he smokes cigarettes and drinks whiskey. He also has a "666" tattoo, the mark of the beast, and his followers get the same tatoo on themselves. Correct me if Im wrong, but doesnt this sound like the antichrist, the false prophet in the book of revelations? He claims that the bible is outdated and erroneous, yet he uses verses from the very same bible he critisizes as proof of him being "God". I mean, his wife holds her purse open while the mindless stuff "donations" into it. He claims the bible is wrong, but he justifies this action by saying "the bible says to tith". he molds the bible into fitting his evil agenda and his mindless followers do it. The guy is a proven drug addict, convicy, pedophile and a con man, why do people bow to this guy?? if they use the bible to justify this man, why dont they read the part where it speaks of the antichrist and the false prophet, cuase what this demon is doing matches up EXACTLY to how the bible describes him!!!!! What do you guys think???? You can check out the cult at their website, www.growingingracespanish.com

The Bible predicted that there would be many "anti-Christ". The word itself means against the Christ.
If the fellow wants to proclaim himself to be THE anti-Christ, the one that will die on the field of battle in Israel, then he is likely mistaken as the identity of THE anti-Christ will only be revealed during the time of the tribulation.

The Bible describes the anti-christ as a drug addict, convict, pedophile, and con man who drinks whiskey and wears Armani suits and Rolexes?
I don't think so.
