1 00:00:00,100 --> 00:00:03,600 Who is the Antichrist. Well, I believe there are three 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,900 possible candidates and once I presented all the evidence 3 00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:10,500 before you, I'm going to tell you, which of these, I believe 4 00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:15,000 the Antichrist really is. Number one, Caesar Nero. 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,500 Now this is going to blow you away. 6 00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:20,000 The Bible says, here is the mind which has wisdom. 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,800 The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman 8 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:28,100 sits there are also seven Kings. Five have fallen. 9 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,800 One is, and the other Other has not yet come and when he comes, 10 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,400 he must continue a short time. The Beast that was and is not is 11 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,900 himself. Also, the eighth and is of the 12 00:00:39,900 --> 00:00:44,500 seven and is going to Perdition. So let's break this down. 13 00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:49,700 John was given a revelation by God and he saw seven Kings seven 14 00:00:49,700 --> 00:00:53,000 rulers, who would sit on the seven mountains or the Seven 15 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,500 Hills in other translations. Now. 16 00:00:55,500 --> 00:00:59,700 Guess how many Hills there are in Rome, the southern so, who 17 00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:00,900 are these? Seven Kings. 18 00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:03,800 Well, at the time that John was writing Revelation. 19 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,200 There had been Savin Emperors of Rome. 20 00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:08,900 So who were these a? Well, there was Julius Caesar 21 00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:11,400 who was Caesar's Augustus, there was Tiberius. 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,800 There was Caligula, Claudius, Caesar Nero, and the wisdom eat 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,800 chicken. And what does John say will 24 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,800 happen to? These seven Kings will he says, 25 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,700 five of them have fallen, meaning five will die on 26 00:01:22,700 --> 00:01:24,100 naturally. One is. 27 00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:26,900 So at the time that John is right in this, there is one who 28 00:01:26,900 --> 00:01:29,800 is still alive and one we can only conclude died. 29 00:01:29,900 --> 00:01:32,900 Naturally. And then it says, there is one 30 00:01:32,900 --> 00:01:37,100 out of the original, Surfin will come back, and he will be the 31 00:01:37,100 --> 00:01:41,200 eighth who is going to be the Beast, which is another name for 32 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,900 the Antichrist. Now, here's where it gets very 33 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,500 crazy. The first emperor of Rome 34 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,400 Julius, Caesar was killed the second, a Caesar, Augustus died 35 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,800 in old age naturally. The third emperor of Rome 36 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,900 Tiberius was poisoned the fourth Caligula was stabbed to death, 37 00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:02,000 the fifth Claude. It was also poisoned and then 38 00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:06,800 the six number six, the six emperor of Rome Caesar Nero 39 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,800 committed, the age 31 awaiting, the death sentence in jail and 40 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,600 their number seven, Dominican was alive. 41 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,900 When John was writing Revelation, isn't that 42 00:02:17,900 --> 00:02:20,900 interesting? Isn't that very interesting 43 00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:23,000 here? We have five Emperors who have 44 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,200 fallen one who is, who still alive right now? 45 00:02:26,300 --> 00:02:29,500 And one who died naturally. But the prophecy which John 46 00:02:29,500 --> 00:02:33,200 wrote down Damn, was this one out of the original Seven? 47 00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:37,800 Who is not, who is already dead, would come back and he would be 48 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,700 the Antichrist, the Beast. So where did I get Nero from? 49 00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:44,900 Well, in the book of Acts, we actually read that the Apostle 50 00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:47,700 Paul appealed to a Caesar who is this? 51 00:02:47,700 --> 00:02:52,100 Caesar, it was Caesar Nero and you know the Apostle Paul as 52 00:02:52,100 --> 00:02:55,600 well as I do, what was his one passion in life? 53 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,100 He had to preach the gospel woe to me. 54 00:02:58,100 --> 00:02:59,800 If I do not preach the gospel, Paul. 55 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,000 Said, and I believe that when the Apostle Paul met season 56 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,600 Arrow, he would have preached Christ, the cross and the Risen 57 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,100 Savior. And one theory is this season 58 00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:12,100 Nero for a period of time was a very successful ruler and then 59 00:03:12,300 --> 00:03:16,000 his mind sort of unhinged. He went insane. 60 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,500 And some people believe that after he met the Apostle Paul, 61 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,500 that was the thing that sends him insane after you rejected 62 00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:26,900 the gospel, something spiritual happened to his soul and it 63 00:03:26,900 --> 00:03:29,500 sends him on the wrong Tracks of Life. 64 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,500 But do you agree with that theory or not? 65 00:03:31,500 --> 00:03:35,400 There's one thing you've got to admit to me and it's this Nero 66 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,800 was one of the most evil man who ever walked on the face of this 67 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:43,300 Earth and he did some very Antichrist kind of things. 68 00:03:43,300 --> 00:03:46,400 You know, he had his own wife murdered in fact, two of his 69 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,500 wives murdered and his own mother, murdered Nero was 70 00:03:49,500 --> 00:03:52,900 obsessed with his popularity. He was popular at the time, 71 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,500 people loved him and he loved Greek tradition. 72 00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:59,100 This idea that you can be your own God and your worship, did, 73 00:03:59,100 --> 00:04:01,600 you know this? Euro was the Forerunner to 74 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,000 persecuting Christians, he had Christians Torn to Pieces by 75 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,600 dogs, they were burnt alive. Some of them were even crucified 76 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,800 like our savior and Nero had relations. 77 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,899 Did Wicked things that are too, shameful for me to speak about 78 00:04:16,899 --> 00:04:19,899 publicly. But perhaps most suspects of 79 00:04:19,899 --> 00:04:22,600 all, is this in the Hebrew language? 80 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,300 Every single letter is given a number. 81 00:04:25,300 --> 00:04:29,300 And if you add up the numbers of Nero's, name, guess what? 82 00:04:29,300 --> 00:04:36,000 Number adds up to 666, the mark of the beast. 83 00:04:36,100 --> 00:04:39,000 Now, before we get too excited, if you add up the letters of 84 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,300 Barney, the dinosaur that also equals 666 and also the Book of 85 00:04:44,300 --> 00:04:47,300 Revelation was written in Greek, not Hebrew. 86 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,900 But let's not forget, that Hebrew was the original language 87 00:04:50,900 --> 00:04:53,400 of God's people, the people of Israel. 88 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,100 So, over to you, do you think that Caesar Nero is the 89 00:04:57,100 --> 00:04:59,300 Antichrist? Will in a moment's time? 90 00:04:59,300 --> 00:05:03,000 I'm going to tell You who I believe the Antichrist really is 91 00:05:03,100 --> 00:05:06,500 another name for the Antichrist, is Son Of Destruction. 92 00:05:06,700 --> 00:05:10,000 And if there's one man who brought utter destruction to 93 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,400 Earth, it was a Dolph Hitler. The Bible says, he shall speak 94 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,100 pompous words against the most high shall persecute. 95 00:05:18,100 --> 00:05:22,700 The Saints of the most high and intend to change times. 96 00:05:22,700 --> 00:05:27,300 And laws, then the Saints shall be given into his hand for a 97 00:05:27,308 --> 00:05:32,100 time and times and half. Half a time what we know about 98 00:05:32,100 --> 00:05:36,600 the Antichrist is he is going to slaughter many of God's people 99 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,900 during the tribulation. So when all those millions of 100 00:05:39,900 --> 00:05:42,900 Jews and all of those Christians were put to death in the 101 00:05:42,900 --> 00:05:45,400 Holocaust. I can imagine many people 102 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,800 wondered is Hitler the Antichrist and not only this, 103 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,600 just like the Antichrist forces, his Mark upon the world. 104 00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:57,200 So Hitler force the Jews to wear a mark on themselves during his 105 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,600 Reign but perhaps the strongest piece of evidence It's of all, 106 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,900 is this Hitler had one goal in life. 107 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,000 He wanted to take over the whole world, he wanted world 108 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,700 domination. And what does the Bible say 109 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,000 about the Antichrist? The fourth Beast shall be a 110 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,600 fourth Kingdom on Earth, which shall be different from all 111 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,900 other kingdoms and shall Devour the whole earth. 112 00:06:22,900 --> 00:06:26,100 Trampled, it and break it in pieces. 113 00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:29,700 The Antichrist is going to set up the greatest Empire. 114 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,300 Sure that this world has ever seen. 115 00:06:31,300 --> 00:06:35,500 He will dominate the whole world but he won't do it by his own 116 00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:38,100 power. The Bible tells us he'll be in 117 00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:43,000 dwelt by the spirit of Satan. And Satan was cast out of Heaven 118 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,100 because he wanted to be worshipped. 119 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,200 He wanted to raise himself exalt himself above the most high 120 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,400 guards and that is the reason why the Antichrist will want to 121 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,200 be worshipped because he has the power of Satan operating through 122 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,700 him. But this Kingdom It will seem 123 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,800 utterly impossible, which will devour the whole world and will 124 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,400 think no one can stop it. When the Lord Jesus Christ, 125 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,300 appears the scriptures. Tell us that he will slay. 126 00:07:11,300 --> 00:07:16,000 The Antichrist with the breath of his mouth but hey now let's 127 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,700 just stop there for a minute and let's not forget this Hitler did 128 00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:23,700 not achieve Global power. He did not achieve total world 129 00:07:23,700 --> 00:07:26,600 domination but the Antichrist will. 130 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,200 Another reason that should make as a little bit skeptical, is 131 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,500 this The Jews hated Hitler and for very good reasons. 132 00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:36,800 But when we read the scriptures, we see that the Jews will love 133 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,600 the Antichrist will see him as a sort of Messiah as a sort of 134 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,600 Savior for them. Jesus said, I have come in my 135 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,800 father's name and you do not receive me. 136 00:07:48,300 --> 00:07:54,300 If another comes in his own name him, you will receive as, you 137 00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:59,000 know, Jesus was a Jew but the Jewish people rejected him. 138 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,500 They At that Messiah, he came to his own, but his own did not 139 00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:07,200 receive him, but one thing we know and it's this, the Jewish 140 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,200 people will not reject the Antichrist, they'll receive him, 141 00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:13,700 and they'll welcome him. And in a moment I'm going to 142 00:08:13,707 --> 00:08:17,700 tell you just why that is, but first I want to hear from you. 143 00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:21,700 Do you think that a Dolph Hitler could be the Antichrist? 144 00:08:21,700 --> 00:08:24,900 Well, before I tell you the answer, let's hear who the third 145 00:08:24,900 --> 00:08:28,700 Antichrist. Might be number three, a famous 146 00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:31,700 celebrity. Let me let you into a secret. 147 00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:35,700 I love reading the comments from all the subscribers from all 148 00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:38,400 around the world. It encourages me so much. 149 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,500 But one thing this has done is it's exposed me to different 150 00:08:42,500 --> 00:08:45,600 theories of who you believe the Antichrist is. 151 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,000 Some people say it's him and then others say no it's 152 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000 definitely him not, maybe it could be this person know, it's 153 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:51,700 him. It's him. 154 00:08:51,700 --> 00:08:52,500 It's him. It's him. 155 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,400 And the problem with all of these different ideas swirling 156 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,300 around on the Internet is, they can't all be right there. 157 00:08:59,300 --> 00:09:02,400 Can only We be one and see Christ, and I could be. 158 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,400 Toasty way off with who I believe is when I tell you the 159 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,600 answer in a moment's time. So what are the signs? 160 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,400 We need to look out for who this person is? 161 00:09:11,500 --> 00:09:14,100 Well, we know the Antichrist is going to speak, blasphemies 162 00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:17,100 about God, he's going to be a blasphemer of the Lord Jesus 163 00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:18,900 Christ. We know that he is going to 164 00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:22,300 perform miraculous signs, which is going to woo. 165 00:09:22,300 --> 00:09:26,300 The whole world into following him, we know that the Antichrist 166 00:09:26,300 --> 00:09:28,900 is going to be a great communicator. 167 00:09:28,900 --> 00:09:32,100 He's going to be the The finest public speaker and he's going to 168 00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:35,300 be full of confidence. And we also know that the 169 00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:39,100 Antichrist will not be attracted to women. 170 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,500 The Bible says he shall regard. Neither the god of his father's 171 00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:47,900 nor the desire of women. And perhaps the most revealing 172 00:09:47,900 --> 00:09:52,100 sign of all is during the seven-year tribulation, the 173 00:09:52,100 --> 00:09:56,300 Antichrist will do something. No man has ever achieved. 174 00:09:56,300 --> 00:10:00,500 He'll bring peace to Jerusalem. He will restore the Simple and 175 00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:04,000 make a covenant, a promise to the people of Israel. 176 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,300 And just when the Jewish people believe that he is their 177 00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:10,200 Messiah, they believe that they are Safe in His Hands. 178 00:10:10,300 --> 00:10:12,300 The Antichrist will turn on them. 179 00:10:12,300 --> 00:10:15,100 He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering in the 180 00:10:15,100 --> 00:10:17,500 temple. He shall persecute the Saints of 181 00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:21,600 the most high and worst of all, he will take his seat in the 182 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:27,200 temple of God proclaiming himself to be God, Jesus Christ, 183 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,600 warned, as of this in Matthew 24. 184 00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:33,900 When he spoke of the abomination of desolation. 185 00:10:33,900 --> 00:10:38,900 So really, until the Antichrist Rises to power until he brings 186 00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:42,000 peace to the Middle East and everyone starts worshipping him, 187 00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:47,300 ultimately, we won't really know who he is until that day comes. 188 00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:50,500 So we can have all of these ideas, but at the end of the 189 00:10:50,500 --> 00:10:53,900 day, they're just opinions. And as Christians were not 190 00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:57,500 called to base our lives. On opinions were called to Route 191 00:10:57,500 --> 00:11:01,800 our lives in scripture. But That being said, if you 192 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,200 really push me in a corner and you really pressed me and said, 193 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,500 Joe, who do you think the Antichrist is? 194 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,200 I probably say to you, I believe it will be someone like Nero 195 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,800 someone like number one or dare. I say someone operating In The 196 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,500 Same Spirit as Nero and again I want to reiterate this to you. 197 00:11:21,500 --> 00:11:25,800 I am not a Bible scholar. I am just your average Joe and 198 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,600 this is just my opinion and I could be totally way off about 199 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,200 this. This but personally, I do find 200 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,500 it. Fascinating, how in Revelation 201 00:11:34,500 --> 00:11:37,200 17? It says, about this person that 202 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,200 he was meaning, he was once alive, but now he is not. 203 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,800 But someone from this original Seven will become the eighth. 204 00:11:45,900 --> 00:11:50,000 The eighth King, and he will be the Antichrist, who will rule 205 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,600 the world. But I will say this, the word 206 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,800 Antichrist means in the place off, meaning taking the place of 207 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,600 the Lord Jesus Christ, and the most urgent. 208 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,600 Jean, you need to ask yourself is not who is the Antichrist, 209 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,300 but who is the Antichrist in your life? 210 00:12:06,300 --> 00:12:09,700 What is taking the place of Jesus Christ? 211 00:12:09,700 --> 00:12:13,400 Is the something that is raining in your life where Christ should 212 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,400 be raining because only the Lord Jesus Christ has the right to 213 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,700 sit in the Throne of your life and maybe you worship, or you're 214 00:12:21,700 --> 00:12:25,700 obsessed with another person. Yesterday, I was preaching on 215 00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:29,000 the streets and I met a man who said I am God. 216 00:12:29,100 --> 00:12:31,100 So I asked his Girlfriend, is he God? 217 00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:34,000 And she said, yes, he's God. There are many people who 218 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,300 worship their boyfriend or their girlfriend and friends. 219 00:12:37,300 --> 00:12:40,700 That is a total sin. Maybe you're worshipping a sin, 220 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,300 maybe you keep returning over and over against this same sin 221 00:12:44,300 --> 00:12:48,100 or maybe you worship a dream, an idea that you will one day 222 00:12:48,100 --> 00:12:51,600 become famous and popular and you will exalt yourself above 223 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,300 everyone. Franz if that is you again, 224 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:59,100 repent, and turn from that sin. If you have not yet, put your 225 00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:03,900 trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. You must do it now because as we 226 00:13:03,900 --> 00:13:07,600 look out at the world, we've got to say, things are changing 227 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,500 very, very quickly. And when the Lord Jesus Christ, 228 00:13:10,500 --> 00:13:14,100 returns when the one who conquered the grave comes back, 229 00:13:14,100 --> 00:13:16,500 you want to make sure you're on the winning side. 230 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,200 You don't want to be on the side with the Antichrist. 231 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,700 Satan, the Beast, the false prophet. 232 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,400 No, you want to be on the side of the Lord Jesus Christ and 233 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,900 there are only two types of people who get into heaven. 234 00:13:29,700 --> 00:13:33,700 Fake people and forgiving people and unless you're perfect, you 235 00:13:33,700 --> 00:13:36,900 need the Lord Jesus Christ. Because on the cross, the 236 00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:42,000 wonderful savior took in his body are lies are blasphemy our 237 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:46,500 pride, our filthiness are lost all of it and he was crucified 238 00:13:46,500 --> 00:13:48,900 there. So you can be forgiven and have 239 00:13:48,900 --> 00:13:51,500 a home in heaven. So, I plead with you today. 240 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,900 Receive the savior of the world and know that your sins could be 241 00:13:54,900 --> 00:13:57,500 forgiven, you could be washed whiter than snow, and you have 242 00:13:57,500 --> 00:13:59,600 eternal life in the most powerful way. 243 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:05,100 Do when he returns he will puff. He'll just blow his breath and 244 00:14:05,100 --> 00:14:08,300 he will slay, the Antichrist in all the powers of Darkness. 245 00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:11,400 That's the man you want to follow Jesus Christ. 246 00:14:11,500 --> 00:14:14,200 Now I know exactly what some of you are thinking. 247 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:18,500 You're thinking Joe, you've missed one very crucial, sign of 248 00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:21,700 who the Antichrist is. You've not talks about the mark 249 00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:24,000 of the beast. Well, that's because I made a 250 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,500 full video all about what I believe the mark of the beast 251 00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:29,100 is.
