no it Satan that is being restrain, the DRAGON of OLD....
hard to confuse these verses unless you really try hard to twist scripture.
Revelation 20
Satan Bound 1000 Years
1 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; 3 and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished. But after these things he must be released for a little while.
and remember there are 3 beings named: satan, beast and false prophet.
the beast is referred to as Antichrist but ALL of them are antichrists for they are ALL against the knowledge of Christ
here are the fate of ALL three:
Revelation 19:19-21 (New King James Version)
19 And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army. 20 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. 21 And the rest were killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. And all the birds were filled with their flesh
Revelation 20
10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are
posted with love and prayers that you will actually listen and read God's words and not go off in a tangent and ignore the post totally again.
You are not innocent, but guilty guilty guilty...I am innocent of that,or am i not?
You are not innocent, but guilty guilty guilty...
you did it innocently though![]()
Antichrist is merely any who reject Christ. There are only four mentions in scripture of this spiritual condition. Nowhere is that wicked man given the title of antichrist, instead he is called the false prophet. God calls him this name, not wakeup but God Himself named him thus. Yet the world persists in calling him antichrist which reveals a lack of understanding of the scriptures on this subject...I will go with Gods description...the false prophet.
REad 2thess2:6 or all.
2 Thessalonians 2:6 (New King James Version)
6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.
why are you being cryptic? this gnostic behavior is annoy. just state what you mean please.
1Jn 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
1Jn 2:19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
1Jn 2:20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
1Jn 2:21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
1Jn 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.
1Jn 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
1Jn 2:24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
1Jn 2:25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
1Jn 2:26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.
1Jn 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
1Jn 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
1Jn 2:29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.
And which is God's description?
You don't speak for God here, you speak out of your own understanding.
2thess.2:6 is speaking of the false prophet being restrained by God untill the time is right for him to be let loose to do his job. And that is to deceive the nations with his miracles,and great words. The world will be deveived by his lies.
Your scripture provided just backed my statement fully. The SPIRIT of antichrist will come full force is what is meant...future. And what does the apostle say? EVEN NOW there are MANY antichrists...sooo it means the spirit of antichrist is ALREADY at WORK. It had ALREADY STARTED back then. Why do i say it will come full force? Because the Christian movement was in its BEGINNINGS. Not until the whole world hears of Jesus can the SPIRIT of antichrist be fully appreciated and established.
I see why you gave the other scriptures you gave too. That is YOUR opinion....But let he who is without sin cast the first stone...i felt your stone hit me....good shot.
Very wrong.you are wrong!
