Will Christians be able to identify the Antichrist before the rapture?

Question

I would be curious...

Answer 1

LOL....... I'm sure they'll try

Answer 2

Before 1830 you can find no mention of the Rapture Doctrine. That alone ought to send up a red flag. In fact, the word "rapture" is not in the Bible. So, where did this false doctrine come from?

In 1830 Margaret MacDonald had an evil revelation on her sick bed, supposedly from God, in which she was shown what would become "The Rapture Of The Church", among other names.

And, from The Incredible Cover-up by Dave Macpherson, Appendix A, you'll read:

"I felt this needed to be revealed, and that there was great darkness and error about it; but suddenly what it was burst upon me with a glorious light." - Margaret MacDonald (Spring of 1830)

MacDonald's revelation would have probably died with her; however, two preachers grabbed it, cleaned it up, and presented it to Christendom. Today, you'll hear many pastors promoting that false doctrine from pulpits.

Answer 3

read your bible

2Jo 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

1Jo 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.



an antichrist is anyone who denies christ, not some arch-nemesis of jesus. i am the antichrist just as many are the antichrist. why do you christians think you know the bible when you can't even differentiates between "the beast" and non-christians.

so, to answer your question, yes. christians will be able to identify the antichrists because we will straight up tell you we reject your weak god that is jesus.

Answer 4

I believe that the Antichrist will be percieved and identified by all true Christians. I also believe that the true Christians will bear no mark of the Antichrist and thus be tortured before the rapture- and thought the process will be covered, those who believe will know.

The rest will be decieved.

Answer 5

click on the rapture section on the left hand side. the bible clearly states that the antichrist is already among us,it even gives it in plural, antichrists.

the rapture is not going to happen and as for antichrist, it is anything you place before yourself and god, money,greed etc.....read the first letter of john.

Answer 6

Maybe if someone writes a book or makes a movie about the Rapture, that would happen?

Answer 7

They failed to identify so many things up to now - including the rapture.

I'm going for a 100% failure on this one. Bets are on, 30 to 1.

Answer 8

Where exactly in the Bible is this rapture thing mentioned again? Couldn't find it last time...

Answer 9

I don't believe they will. The AntiChrist appears on the scene in the Book of Revelations which mostly takes place after the church is removed. He comes out of a gentile nation and I believe is associated with the catholic church, whom he turns on and destroys.

Answer 10

He will be big and hairy and speak with a lisp....

Assuming their is a rapture, it would depend on whether you are pre-, mid-, or post-tribulationist. Should you be raptured before the tribulation, you probably wouldn't know who Satan embodies in the end times. Should you stay around and witness the end of all things, you may very well see his face.

Regardless of your opinion on the rapture, if you live until the 7 year treaty is signed with Israel, you will know vividly who the antichrist is and will see his works in full.

Answer 11

Pat Robertson appears to be the Anti-Christ. His anti-Christian proclamations and endorsements unmasks his real identity.
