I apologize for not being prepared with all the proper verses, but the beast is attributed to have the names of blasphemy upon its head. Blasphemy is committed in hindrance of the Holy Spirit, this is also why I do not believe Jesus is the one being referred to in the verse that says, "until he is taken out of the way" but rather the one that hinders will be taken out of the way.
As to Israel receiving their Messiah, they are blinded by God Himself in order that the gentiles may be drawn and I believe the time comes soon that He will draw them back to Himself. We are seeing this in messianic revival, no?
If we are still looking for the Antichrist to be set up, and has is already, would that not endanger us to mistake Christ and reject Him at his return? I think that would be a major accomplishment for the antichrist if that happened and could be his strategy, but then Christ return would reveal the man of perdition. I mean, the angel with the key to the bottomless pit will have no confusion as to who he is and apprehend the wrong man.

so at the end of us all scratching our heads if a man named Jesus was born in the flesh as the Messiah sent from God, and a bunch of the people/Jews said that he was not the Christ,accused him of blasphemy,decided to wait for another Messiah in place of him and crucified him ,,,"are they anti-Jesus,anti-Messiah,anti-Christ" ?
Anti in the original Greek not only mean against but also mean impostor.
Muslim not impostor of Jesus. Yes Islam against Jesus as a God but they not pretend to be Jesus or God. They god is Allah.
"Antichrist", therefore means, literally, "someone who stands instead of, or in place of, the real Jesus Christ".

The Real Christ and the Antichrist
The Literal Meaning of "Antichrist"
As used in the Bible, the term combines the Greek word, "anti", with the title commonly given to Jesus. The main meaning of this word is, "instead of" or, "in place of". "Antichrist", therefore means, literally, "someone who stands instead of, or in place of, the real Jesus Christ".
A bunch recognized Him also, Paul for one, others hearts were hardened. And then there is the theory of the two houses, two tribes make up the house of Judah ("Jews" as we know them) and the house of Joseph (the remnant 10 tribes, "Joes", who most likely do not even realize they are the house of Israel as they have been dispersed into all the world). Anyway, I understand the jewish policy is to allow their people to choose their own religion, so that is not exactly hindering Christ as the Pharisees had done.
exactly,,so then the Jews(back in the day Jesus was there) looked at him and thought/said,,"no,your not the real Messiah were going to wait for another one",,, and so since they were/are against him(Jesus) being the Messiah(don't believe he is),,,they in tern are looking for a "re-placement/instead of" Jesus,they are waiting for the "real Messiah<--------because they don't believe Jesus is the real one=anti-Christ/anti-Jesus ",,,
So again if the devil is "against Christ",and comes to set up his(devils) own kingdom in the end to act/work against Jesus/Messiah then the first thing the devil has to do is "believe Jesus is actually the Messiah",,,,,that is he knows Jesus is the Messiah,but don't like that so he works against Jesus. So notice that "the man of sin/beast" (does believe) Jesus was born in the flesh and was crucified which is not the deffanition of "an anti-Christ",,,so there are "anti-Christ",,(AND) the beast/devil but they are two different things,,
I could see it happening that if there is a pre tribulation rapture, and all the believers are gone. The remaining people forming a one world religion with the vatacan as its headquarters, or even the vatician itself being turned into a mosque if all the believers are gone from the earth, if that happens both could be true.

Yes, the rapture will be such a game changer. In essence, the moral compass of the Holy Spirit in people will be gone, a situation ripe for all evil to flourish, all falseness and apostasy,
Luke 6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
Luke 6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
the same like manner that the Jews of old/modern reject Jesus as the Messiah and replace him with,,"a future Messiah coming" also the Islams reject Jesus as the Savior/Messiah with the Mahdi/12th Muhammad al-Mahdi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia the point being that they are all replacing Jesus with some other Savior,,"in place of Christ",,,
Yes,
And the true messiah has come, and 95 percent of them are atheist they don't care real messiah or impostor as long as bring peace.

One-World Church Expected This Year
CORNELIA R. FERREIRA
One of the long-standing goals of the Masonic New World Order seems finally within grasp: its one-world church, in the making for over 150 years, is about to become institutionalized as the United Religions Organization—the UR. Collaborating on the details are Bishop William Swing of the Episcopal Diocese of California, the Communist Gorbachev Foundation/USA, and certain leaders of the Catholic Church, working through the interreligious organization known as the World Conference on Religion and Peace.CORNELIA R.

In part I agree the beast when he comes will be to every group the exact definition of what they believe is the Savior/Messiah ,,,to the Jews they will see him as the Messiah they are waiting for,,the Islams will see him as the Mahdi,,the American Indians will see him as the "white buffalo",,ect.ect. ,,,the problem associated with the Christian belief though is that a large amount of them will assume that he(the beast) is Jesus returned in the second coming.
