I find it increasingly amazing that there could be any disagreement within the body of Christ, as to the identity of THE false prophet of the book of Revelation, particularly today. Even as this is how the world breaks down:
One third of mankind in the world today believe that Christ was crucified, died and was resurrected from the dead, as revealed through the prophets and witnesses of the 1600 year record of revelation of the one true God to mankind, whose people have followed Him through two covenants for 3500 years.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
A record of revelation that commands us to not only love our neighbor as ourselves, but even to love our enemies.
Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Galatians 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
A directly opposing one quarter of mankind in the counter-Gospel anti-religion of Islam are required to disbelieve the whole subject of the Gospel, and thus reject the sin-atoning shed blood of the Messiah, and deny the Son of God - as articles of their faith in Muhammad alone.
Quran Surah 4:157 That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-
Quran Surah 19:88 They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!" 89 Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!
Through Muhammad's heavily abrogatedstand-alone 23 year 7th century record his followers are commanded to "fight and slay" non-Muslims and to subjugate all of humanity to Muhammad's followers:
Bukhari, V1 B2 #24 Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle.....
It would of course be pure blasphemy for a Jew or Christian to "testify" to that since if Muhammad was a true prophet, then the prophets and witnesses as revealed in the 1600 year record of revelation of YHWH to mankind, would be false. In particular Jesus Christ, who prophesied His own crucifixion, death and resurrection.
As if that weren't stunning enough, followers of Muhammad are taught that they would commit the single most "heinous" and ONLY UNFORGIVABLE SIN ("shirk") in Muhammad's anti-religion, if a Muslim were to confess that Jesus is the Son of God, or even to pray in Jesus' name. The unforgivable "sin" of praying in Jesus' name, as opposed to child rape or cold-blooded mass murder for example, which may be forgiven. Whose deity even curses Jews and Christians for being "deluded away from the Truth", while he commands Muhammad's followers to fight and subdue Jews and Christians into submission:
Surah 9.29 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 30 The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!
So Islam is to Christianity, as the negative is, to a photograph. A perfect inverse.
1John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
One would think the stunning nature of this spiritual conflict alone, would be enough to give even a staunch atheist pause, to ponder the odds. However even much of the "church" is blinded to this imperialistic conquest, and subjugation of mankind to the powers of darkness, primarily because of eschatology that was popularized in the 19th and 20th centuries. Even though the scriptures make it abundantly clear:
1John 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. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].
Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!
So how well has the church been served, by the idea of a single individual as "The" "Antichrist", whether as advanced by preterists or futurists?
