Most Christians who adhere to a futurist prophetic doctrine still hold to the coming end times emergence of a man called “Antichrist”, who will set up a One World government with another man called the “False Prophet”. Is this expectation accurate? Who IS this antichrist?
”Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.”-1John 2:22
But first we review the response from Chris White to our two-part series on the rapture and discuss the persistent denial of Biblically sound teaching by rapture leaders and believers. White, who has taken on New Age apostles such as Jordan Maxwell and Michael Tsarion—and is one of the the promoters of the Take The Zeitgeist Challenge— is now revealed as full-on hypocrite, as he failed to offer any proofs to refute my criticism of his presentation and defense of the pre-trib rapture doctrine. White demands truth from non-believers while waffling on the certainty of plain scripture. Maybe he is waiting for me to offer HIM money —I don’t think so!

The destruction of the Temple is ample proof that Jesus was the prophesied Messiah, and that Jesus was who He claimed to be. Without the Temple, all genealogical records are permanently lost leaving us with no way to trace and verify a bloodline. Any future claims by anyone being the Messiah after 70 A.D., would be by a pretender. “The Da Vinci Code” centers around such a false bloodline, and can be proven to be a lie by only one verse in the Bible. This verse was the centerpiece of the scroll that the Ethiopian eunuch was reading when Phillip preached to him about Jesus, and then baptized him. The eunuch, in one sense, thought that Isaiah was talking about him. (Imagine how his mind would have really been blown if he also read Jeremiah 38 and 39!)
If you believe that all prophecies about Christ were fulfilled, and that He did, in fact, fulfill all the Messianic prophecies, (If a = b, then b = a) then you really only need one line of the verse. That verse is about the Suffering Servant, at Isaiah 53:8; where it reads: “And who shall declare his generation?” This is a rhetorical question. The word ‘generation’ can be rendered ‘genealogies’ or ‘descendants’. Who can say that Jesus was married and had children? No one can! At the end of his 3 & 1/2 year ministry, (in the middle of the week), He caused the sacrifice and oblation to cease. With the perfect blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross, further animal sacrifices in the Temple were an abomination in God’s eyes, and He had to make it desolate. We can never go back to a sacrificial system inside an earthly Temple, but, man will attempt to it, just the same.
