The Identity of The Antichrist and Final Super Power
April 19th, 2009 | by christionsgoodies |Even though the fascination with the identity of the Antichrist has been a major aspect of bible prophecy for hundreds of years, the twentieth and twenty first century has witnessed more focus on the end time Antichrist debate more than any other time primarily because the rise of the internet has created more exposure and access to information related to the development of the new world order than at any other time in history.
The “New World Order” whilst a political term used by the likes of Barack Obama, Henry Kissinger and George Bush Senior, is a term with a more sinister meaning which at the heart involves the creation of a final socialist world government system that will full the biblical prophecy of a final world empire dictatorship that will enslave mankind into a demonic economic system called the Mark of the Beast.
However, there are multiple debates within bible prophecy circles as to who this final world empire will be and there are 5 key belief structures regarding its identity.
1. A EUROPEAN SUPER STATE
The traditional and classical view is that this final world empire will be a european super state, arising out of the European Union. Some of the world’s greatest prophecy scholars such as Dave Hunt, David Breese and the late John F Walvoord and Dwight Pentecost believed that this final empire would be a Revived Roman Empire according to the prophecies of Daniel.
Interestingly, John F Walvoord in his book “Armageddon, Oil and the Middle East Crisis” alludes to not only a “European Super Power” but a “Mediterranean Power” which will closely mirror the geographical boundaries of ancient Rome which encompassed not only Europe, but also North Africa and the Middle East. It is thus interesting to see that in July 2008, French president, Nicholas Sarkozy led the inauguration of the Mediterranean Union; a new commercial union between nations of the European Union and North Africa and the Middle East.
2. THE CLUB OF ROME MODEL
The modernist viewpoint is that the final world empire will consist of 10 bio regions (known as the Club of Rome model) in that the earth has been divided into blocs where the idea is that the national sovereignty of nations will be subject to a regional union. All 10 regions will then come under the centralized control of the Antichrist.
Some of these regions it is believed already have been formed such as the European Union, the South American Union, the African Union and the Arab League. There has also been significant coverage within the last several years on the emergence of the North American Union and single currency Amero which many believe will form one of the 10 bioregions. Reports even suggest that there are plans to create a centralised currency across these 3 countries called the Amero which will replace all 3 national currencies.
3. AMERICA: GUARDIAN OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER
An alternative modernist view point is that America is the final world empire. Supporters of this view scoff at the traditional classical view citing the deficiencies and weaknesses in Europe of ever being able to come together and thus claim that America is the Guardian of the New World Order in which the decoding of the imagery on the back of the US Dollar bill is cited as evidence. Much of this view is also tied in with the interpretation of Revelation 18 description of a last days end time commercial Babylon which bears the hallmarks of the United States because of its military, political and commercial strength on the world stage.
Jack Van Impe, Stan Deyo, Tim Mchyde and others have championed this view that the last days commercial Babylon is not applicable to a literal rebuilding of the ancient city in Iraq as championed by Dr Charles Dwyer or the seven hilled city of Rome as mentioned by Dave Hunt in his book “A Woman Rides the Beast”, but symbolic of the world greatest super power, the United States.
4. AN ISLAMIC ECONOMIC AND MILITARY ALLIANCE
A more recent view which is enjoying a significant amount of coverage is the belief that the Antichrist and his empire will be a confederation of Islamic nations led by the long awaited Islamic Madhi. This view championed by Rodrigo Silva and Joel Richardson author of “Antichrist: Islam’s Awaited Messiah” is based on reviewing Islamic prophetical teachings known as “hadith” which refer to the final coming of the Al-Madhi (a return of Jesus Christ) to overthrow the Al-Dajaal (a Syrian/Jewish Antichrist) and establish a new world Islamic order. Scholars who hold to the islamic view believe that the biblical final world empire will be an Islamic confederation which will use its significant oil reserves as a secret weapon to bring the world ecomony crashing down under Islamic domination.
5. THE VATICAN AND ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
Finally, there is the traditional medieval view that the Antichrist is linked to the Roman Catholic Church and Jesuit order. This view which was the predominant eschatogical belief of the early reformers has a lot of prominence even now in the 21st century. Malachi Martins book the “The Keys to this Blood” is one of the best documented insights into the Vatican’s struggle for world supremacy and the internal state of the Roman Catholic Church with a specific split amongst high ranking clergy between those holding onto the historical teachings of the apostles and the early church fathers, and those who wish for many of the church’s teachings to be changed under new liberal new age philosophies which encompass a universalist religion unification ideal.
The debate as to the identity of the man who will head this final world empire is even more controversial. History has seen many labelled the Antichrist such as Roman Emperor Nero, Charlemagne King of the Holy Roman Empire, Napoleon Bonaparte, Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler, and in recent times, Henry Kissinger, Mikhail Gorbachev, Pope John Paul II, Saddam Hussein, Vladimir Putin, King Juan Carlos of Spain, Karl Von Habsburg of the Habsburg Dynasty, Javier Solana of the European Union, Prince Charles of Wales and more recently and controversially, Barack Obama.
What is the identity of the Antichrist and do any of these men fit the criteria? What will be his lineage? Jewish, Syrian, Merovingian, Roman etc.
RELEASE OF A CONTROVERSIAL PUBLICATION – “THE ANTICHRIST IDENTITY SERIES”
In September 2008, a controversial and provocative publication emerged on the internet called The Antichrist Identity Report, a 150 Page, 3 part series which tackles all of these key questions head on.
In a break with traditional thinking and interpretation, the research team who put the publication together, formed their conclusions from basing their primary understanding of the coming new world order on secular documentation such as the new age bible “The Keys of Enoch” and other heavy weight illuminati inspired epistles such as Alice Bailey’s “Externalisation of the Hierarchy” and the Masonic writings of Albert Pike in “Morals and Dogma” .
By understanding the plans of the heavyweight thinkers behind the new world order Antichrist objective, the Antichrist Identity 3 part series blends their plans which have been followed for decades, with a biblical perspective to address the issue of the identity of the Antichrist and what super power bloc will this man known as the “beast” and the “man of sin” emerge from. Certainly not for the faint hearted and a publication for those who want a challenging perspective on the end times.
The report can be accessed at

so go there now and see whether it will challenge what you presently believe on this controversial area of debate.
