Who do you think is the Anti-Christ? Bush, Putin or Ahmadinejad?

Question

OK, add your own candidate....

Answer 1

Did the RAPTURE happen and some one forgot to tell me? Doesn't the Rapture come first then the Anti-Christ?

Answer 2

Rev 13 says the beast will have a fatally wounded head that has healed. I sense this person will be shot, hospitalized, then amaze the world he's alive. They will revere him. He will speak blasphamies of those in heaven for 42 months. Beheadings will be instituted. His protege will appear genuine, but his voice will not. He will perform miracles, including the worship of images. Is this like any of the three? I believe the signs are pointing to a closure, but it is not today. God has prophecies that must be fulfilled before the Anti-Christ steps in. If even one is left, God will wait. The planet must reach the point of WW3, in order for salvation to be necessary. Does that mean this conflict with Muslim countries will increase? Very likely. Could the Anti-Christ be Muslim? Good question, but impossible to say. The Bible offers only one indication through symbolism - he will look like a leopard, bear, and lion. A leopard is smaller than the others, yet makes up the majority of it's body. This tells me that whatever religion it uses, the others will be there to daze. Since, he comes as a false peacemaker for nations, it might be that he uses the most publically respected religion as his stand. Many believed the Catholic church would be the dragon with the pope as it's beast. Certainly, the pope's Latin name across his head read, 'Vicarius Filii Dei' or 'Vicar of the Son of God.' Equating the Latin letters with Roman numerals is one version of the number of the beast. But it's not conclusive. Neither is the fact that Jesus made Peter the foundation for the church. Would Jesus be getting back at Peter for denying him 3 times? Perhaps, but the crime doesn't fit the punishment, and the Lord is justly right. His bears feet silence the movements. While, it's lion mouth speaks vileness proudly. Some authorities claim each symbol to be a country which describes the lineage of where to expect the beast from. That is mountain of analogy, even for trying to pin it on Catholics. If Muslims are the wicked ones (which seems ludicrous), then God would not have blessed Abraham's son to be a great nation. Jesus loved Abraham, because he did not have to be told God was real. He knew it in the pit of his stomuch. If Jesus wanted the Muslims dead, He would not need to wait 5000 years. During the period when the Ark was traveling outside of Jerusalem, God could have easily wiped out Ishmael's descendants with little more than the Jews walking over to their camp site carrying the Ark of the Covenant. No, the Anti-Christ may use Islam, Christianity, and Judaism to incite havoc, but he is not a practioner of any of them. The first give away to look for is his arrogant words about God.

Answer 3

If you believe all that NT stuff, the anti-Christ has to come from the NORTH. That is why Muhammad was not considered the anti-Christ, because he came from the south.

Some felt Hitler was the anti-Christ because Germany is a bit north. Putin is the only one on your list that could be considered from the north. But how about Hillary? She is from the north and is about as anti-Christy as you can get.

Answer 4

Although I am not definetely sure that he time of Antichrist has indded arrived my vote is split between Ahmadinejad and Bush because they are essentially the same under the skin...(I don't want to offend any US Republicans)

Answer 5

Who ever Rules The EU. Bible said to watch out for the revived roman empire, The woman riding the beast that has a crown with 12 stars.

now the crown means a nation or kingdom, 12 stars on the EU Flag, on the EURO Coins there is a woman riding a bull (bull is the so-called Beast) with 12 stars at around the coin.
(not shure what the 12 stars represent in general)

Answer 6

+PAX
I believe this islamic "messiah" that Ahmadinejad is trying to ready the world for by converting everyone to Islam will be the Anti-Christ. If not that exactly, I still believe it will come out of the Mideast...out of Islam.
In humility,

Answer 7

Yeah- like the anti-christ would step down after 8 years. The other two- no. Not enough people following them or likely to. Look for someone who people follow like the pied piper and you'll be a lot closer.

Answer 8

All of them are too small to act as even a common soldier in Anti-christ army as per scriptures. God bless all of them and give them guidance to save innocent people from their tramplings.

And if you really want to know about anti-Christ then he will be from north side of Arabia meaning Iran, China, part of Russia. He will have Jew follower from Iran beside many other followers from other areas. He will attack Arab areas and devastate till Jesus Christ will descend on the white minaret of Ommayad mosque (a heathen temple before christianity, then Cathedral of Saint John and his cut head was present there till in 7th century muslim conquered Damascus and buried head of John and made it a mosque which was nicely constructed by Turks later), in Damascus Syria. Then he will fight him and at a place called Ludh in Arabic which is Lydia in English he will kill anti-christ. Jesus will govern this world justly for 40 years, will make marriage, have children and die and be buried in the city of Madina Saudi Arabia, beside the grave of prophet Mohammad where an empty space is lying now.

So he cannot be from Europe or west, may from Iran, China or area on that side, all his details and features are mentioned in Islamic books.

Answer 9

None of them. However the bible mentions the "King of the North" (Russia) and Persia (Modern day Iran) will garner together to defeat Israel in the Gog Magog war. The anti-Christ will then most likely emerge from the Muslim culture as the "Hidden Imam"
The AntiChrist will force believers to take the mark of the beast, denounce Jesus as God or get beheaded. This is all in bible. I also believe we are witnessing the beginnings of the Gog Magog war.

Answer 10

Bush. merely seem at his checklist. And the certainty that he claims god talks to him, and that god placed him place of work. feels like a Messiah fable to me, meaning he's the anti-Christ.
