Review: PHASE.10 for the order of events before Jesus returns
Prophets WAITED(1Peter.10-12)
The set time for the man of sin ,
the son of perdition
NOTE: Noah had to have a hearing ear to enter within the Ark
JOEL SAW THE RESTORATION (Joel.2:)
The Ark today is NOT some automatic "thing" that all of a sudden appears and we all get on board.
NOTICE: How God faithfully followed the pattern of these Feast as He built His Church "without hands"
Daniel was seeing a MAN (King / kingdoms of this world)
BUT THERE IS MORE
The "man of sin" is going to be LIKE Christ
Doing signs and wonders
___________________
Daniel wanted to see more, but was told to seal up the vision, close the Book / Seal up the Book
The Just (justified in Christ's blood)
JOEL SAW THE DECLINE (Joel.2:)
LET NO MAN DECEIVE YOU
because the revealing of the antichrist is between us (TODAY) and the Second Coming
The spirit of antchrist is already in the world but will not be revealed
(made manifest) until the 5th trumpet
Woman / Bride to take BEFORE that
enmity (hostility) spirit of antichrist already in the world
The Church at Thessalonica were thinking that Jesus would be returning in their day (1.st.Cent.AD)
NOTE: The identification of this Woman (Review:PHASE.10, Page.13) is the key to understand God will protect[0] us. (As it was in the days of NoahMat.24:36-37)
Abraham WAITED(John.8:56)
----------------------------------------------------------------- (Heb.11:8-16)
Lucifer Falling
No time mentioned
I WILL BE "LIKE" The MOST HIGH
The spirit of antichrist is ALREADY in the world, but NOT revealed until 5th Trumpet

The revealing of man of sin (antichrist)Page.1 of 2
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I. This has been buildingsince Lucifer fell (Eze.28:11-19)[0] when he said,
A. I will ascend into heaven,I will exalt my throne above the stars of God:[0]
B. I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation,[0] in the sides of the north: I will ascend
above the heights of the clouds;[0]I will be like[0]the most High." (Isa.14:11-14) NOTE:
2Thes.2:3-4
C. In the process of time Lucifer (the old serpent[0] (also called the great dragon, the Devil, and
Satan Rev.12:9) is seen in the Garden of the Lord (in Eden on this earth) deceiving Eve,
(Gen.3:1-7, 1Tim.2:14, 2Cor.11:1-15) causing Adam to eat of the tree of good and evil (Gen.2:17)
and sin to enter the world. (Rom.5:10-14)
D. God pronounced a "cursed and judgment upon the serpent, (also called the great dragon,
the Devil, and Satan Rev.12:9; Rev.19:20-21)
E. God immediately pronounceda plan of redemption for mankind.[0]which was "foreordained
before the foundation of the world," and made manifest in these last times"[0] meaning the
two two thousand years / 2 days.(Gen.3:15, 1Peter.1:1-20)
F. God said,during this time "I will put enmity(hostility) between thee (the serpent) and the
woman, and between thy (the serpentsseed / offspring) and her (the woman'sseed / offspring)
the woman's seed (offspring)
G. This is seen from the time that sin entered the world unto our present time and will continue until the
"Mystery of God is finished" (Acts.3:18-24, Rev.10:7; 11:15 / Dan.2:42)
H. This "enmity" (hostility) is seen throughout the Bible.[0] NOTE: John said that spirit of antichrist is ALREADY in
the World in John's generation. (Actually you can say that the spirit of antichrist has been active since Lucifer
fell (Isa.14:11-14, Eze.28:11-19) and sin entering the world)
I. The woman's seed shall bruise (togape, i.e. snap at; figuratively, to overwhelm:—break,
bruise, cover) thy (the serpents) head,[0] and thou (the serpents seed) shalt bruise his heel."[0]
(Gen.3:15)
II. Daniel sees the "enmity"(hositlty)revealed as a "little horn"/ a king- man / kingdom
(Review: PHASE.5, Page.1)
A. I saw...a fourth beast, (the 4th kingdom[0] which did "devour" the "whole" world
Dan.7:23) and it had ten horns. (kings / 10 toes Dan.2:42)
B. I considered the horns, (the 10kingdomsDan.7:24) / 10toesDan.2:42)
C. Behold, there came up among them (the 10 kings / kingdoms) another little horn,
before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots
D. Inthis horn were eyes like the eyes of man (Dan.7:8, Rev.) This same (little) horn[0]
made war with the saints and prevailed UNTIL A TIME AND TIMES AND THE DIVIDING
OF TIMES[0](Dan.7:21, Rev.13:5)
E. A mouth speaking great things. (Dan.7:8, Rev.13:5)
F. I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit. I beheld
then because of the voice of the great words which the (little) horn
spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain...and...
G. Behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the
Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him
dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should
serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his
kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." (Dan.7:8-14) Daniel said,
III. It was not until the New Testament[0](1John.2:18-20 / Eph.3:5) that the name
"antichrist"[0] was given to the "little horn." John says, "it is the last time: and as ye have
heard that antichrist shall come, (Dan.7:1-28)
A. "...even now[0] (in the 1st Cent. AD) are there many antichristswith the same purpose
as Lucifer (also called the great dragon, the Devil, and Satan Rev.12:9, 1John.2:18-20)
A COUNTERFEIT / "another spirit" (2Cor.11:1-15)
B. Whereby we know that it is the last time.
C. NOTE: They (The many antichrist's) went out from us,[0] but they were not of us;
for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us:
D. They went out, that they might be made manifest[0]that they were not all of us."
(1John.2:18-20; 4:1-4) / Think of Judas! (John.00:00)
E. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God(1John.4:1-4)
1. Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh[0] is of God:
2. And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not
of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist,
3. Whereof ye have heard that it should come (1John.2:18-20)
4. And even now already is it in the world. (1John.4:1-4)
IV. John sets the time frame (timeline)
John says, "it is the last time:and as ye have heard that antichrist[0]shall come, even noware there
many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time."(1John.2:18-20; 4:1-4)
A. "As ye have heard that antichrist shall come" (Future / This has not happened yet, (2024 AD) and
it will not until the 5th Trump sounds. (2Thes.2:1-9 | See PHASE.10,Page.3, 4, 6)
B. Even now (in the 1st. Cent.AD) there are many[0] antichrists. (This is howwe knowthat it is the last
time[0](1John.2:18-20) This is why we need"try (prove) the spirits" (1Thes.5:21)
NOTE: Obviouslythe first Century AD was NOT the "last time"[0] becauseIt has been (approx.[0]
2,000 yrs since John wrote this down)
V. Peter gives the answer for why John writes, "it is the last time" (2Peter.2:1-22; 3:1-9)
A. In the apostles day (1st. Cent. AD) there were scoffer's saying,
1. Where is the promise of his coming?
2. For since the fathers[0] fell asleep, all things continue as they were[0] from the beginning
of the creation. (2Peter.3:1-9, 2Tim.2:18)
3. Peter's answer to them wasthe days of Noah (2Peter.3:1-18)
a. You (scoffers) are willingly[0] are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were
of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water. (Gen.1-6)
b. The world "that then was, (Noah's day) being overflowed with water, perished."
(Gen.6:1-22; 7:1-24)
c. But the heavens and the earth, which are now,(from the 1st.AD to our day 2024) by
the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and
perdition of ungodly men.
Peter writes, "be not (willingly) ignorant[0] of this one thing, that one day is with the
Lord as a thousand years, (to us) and a thousand years as one day. (Psa.90:42, Peter.3:1-9)
(Review: PHASE.3 for details of chart)
d. The Lord is not slack (Late, tardy) concerning his promise, as some men count
slackness;[0]but is longsuffering /waiting patiently(James.5:7-8)[0] to us-ward
(1) BecauseHe is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
(Matt.24:36-37, 2Peter.3:5)
a. Jesus used the days of Noah to explain about His Coming (Matt.24:3, 36-37)
b. Peter used the days of Noah to explain about the Second Coming (2Peter.3:1-9)
c. Paul used the days of Noah to explain about the Second Coming (Heb.11:7)
(2) God was waiting patiently in Noah's day for the time He had already set / 120 years
(Gen.6:1-3, Matt.24:36-37) God was "right on time" (Matt.24:36-37) God was not being "slack"
(tardy / late or anixous)
NOTE: THE SAME WORDis to us TODAY! "The heavens and the earth, which are now,
by thesame wordare kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and
perdition of ungodly men." (2Peter.3:7-8)Our destruction will be "right on time"
(3) God waswaiting patientlyin Noah's daybecause the Ark needed to be built[0]Finished
(Gen.6:1-22, Heb.11:7)
(a) TODAY The Church needs to be built (finishedMark.14:58, Acts.7:47-48; 17:24, Eph.2:20-22,
1Peter.2:5)and presented to Christ (the second Adam 1Cor.15:45-46) as Eve was to the FIRST
ADAM (Eph.5:21-32, 2Cor.11:1-7) to Christ.
(b) God was waiting patiently in Noah's day becauseNoah and "all his house" had
to enter the Ark [0] (Gen.7:1) that Noah had been building while waiting.[0]
Noah had to have a hearing ear(Gen.6:22; 7:1-, Matt.11-15; 13:9, Heb..2:1, Rev.2:7)
(c) After Noah and his family had entered the Ark "the Lord God shut him in" (Gen.7:16,
Matt.25:10) and waited seven more days (Gen.7:4)
(e) Then the destruction (the flood) came and Noah was PROTECTED. (Gen.6:22; 7:1-24)
only Noah remained alive, and they that were with him in the Ark. (Gen.7:24, 1Thes.4:18)
Think on this: Noah did NOT need to know the day or the hour of the flood because he
was already in the Ark when the destruction took place. (Gen.6:22; 7:1-24, 1Thes.5:4-5)
In order to be in that safe and protected position he (Noah) allowed himself "to be warned
of God of things not seen as yet." To be moved with fear, (respect / reverance God's
Words and prepared an ark to the saving of his house. (Heb.11:7)[0]
(4) Peter says, "the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word (that was
given to Noah) are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of
ungodly men. (2Peter.3:7)
VI. James also says we areWAITING
"Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the
precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it,(NOTE: 2Peter.3:9)until he receive the early and
latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh." (James.5:7-8)
"What are these rains?
A. These rains are found in the set feasts of Israel.(Lev.23:1-44, Col.2:16, 1Cor.10:1-11)
God told Moses to "Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, concerning the feasts of
the Lord, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.
1. Why are we using these two verses that James wrote?
a. Because Holy Spirit inspired James to write this down these verses that we may be
"thoroughly furnished (2Tim.3:16-17, John.16:10-15)
b. These two verses "establishes us" while we wait patiently for the coming of the Lord"
c. The apostles doctrine teaches us that these Feasts are a shadow of things to come. (Col.2:16)
2. These are the feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, (assembly) which Israel (the Church in the
wilderness Acts.7:38) shall proclaim in their seasons. (Lev.23:1-44)
3. In the fourteenth day of the 1.st month at even is the Lord's Passover.
a. Passover(Exod.12:1-14, 1Cor.5:7-8)
b. Unleavened bread (Exod.12:15-22, 1Cor.5:7-8)
c. Firstfruits (Lev.23:9-14)
4. Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer
a new meat offering unto the Lord. The Feast of Pentecost. (also called the Feast of weeks and the
feast of Harvest) (The 3rd. month)
(1) This was a great time of the grain Harvest (Lev.23:)
(2) Before this harvest, there was a early rain(Deut.11:13-14, Lev.26:1-13) given that (the Church
in the wilderness Acts.7:38) "may gather in their corn" (the grain harvest). This was called the
Feast of Harvest / Weeks / Pentecost(Lev.23:15-22, Acts.2:1)
(a) This rain foreshadowed the outpouring of God's Spirit on the Day of Pentecost ( )
(b) A great harvest of souls ( )
5. There was still another Feast called the Feast (Tabernacles) In the 7thmonth, the first day of the
month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
a. This was a great harvest time of the fruit (Grapes / wine and the Olives / Oil Deut.11:14, Lev.26:1-13)
b. Before this harvest, there was a latter rain(Deut.11:13-14, Lev.26:1-13) which was given so
(Israel) could gather in thy wine (grapes) and oil (olives) which was during the Feast of Tabernacles.
(Lev.23:23-44) NOTE: The language of The Prophet Joel.
(1) This "latter rain" foreshadows another the outpouring of God's Spirit[0] during the time of the
Feast of Tabernacles
(2) A great harvest of souls ( )
(3) GOD IS STILLWAITINGFOR THIS FEAST TO BE FULFILLED IN CHRIST (Matt.5:17-19, Rom.8:1-4,
Gal.3:24, Acts.3:18-24, Rev.10:7; 11:15, Dan.2:42) BEFORE THE SECOND COMING(James.5:7-8)
We can see that the Feast of Passover has been in Christ "our Passover Lamb". ( ) We can see
that the Feast of Pentecost has been fulfilled in Christ( ) Therefore in the mouth of two or
three witnesses (Gen.41:32,Deut.17:6; 19:15, Eccl.4:12, Matt.18:16; 2Cor.13:1) it is ESTABLISHED
that the Feast of Tabernacle will be fulfilled in Christ (Col.2:16) "who is the head of the body,
the Church" (1Cor.12:12-27)
VII. Peter again says that Jesus "is being received (retained or held UNTIL (waiting) ...
'But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer,
he hath so fulfilled. Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times
of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was
preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God
hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began...Yea, and all the prophets from
Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days."
(Acts.3:18-24, Rev.10:7; 11:15, Dan.2:42)
VIII. All the Seals, Trumpets and Tribulation must take place BEFORE
(Review: PHASE.10 for more details of chart)
IV. The apostle Paul / John interpretswhen(in the last time) the antichrist shall come
(Future / 2Thes.2:1-9) Dan.2:1-45, Dan.7:1-1-28, Rev.14, Rev.19:)
A. The apostle Paul says that this beast / man of sin / perdition / antichrist / will be revealed
in histime[0]) (i.e. the sounding of the 5th trumpet)[0](2Thes.2:3, Rev.1:1,19;
4:1-2; 9:1) (see chart above)
B. After being revealed he has only power to continue 42 months (1260 days,time, times, and half a time /
time, times and divide of times (Dan,.7:25, Rev.11:1-2, 13:7)
C. Then Jesus destroy's him with the brightness of His Coming (the 7th trumpet) (2Thes.2:8, Rev.13:1-18)
Paul writes...
"Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? (Acts.17:1-4 /v.10-11,
1Thes.1:10; 2:19; 3:13; 4:13-18; 5:1-4, 2Thes.1:9; 2:1-10; 3:5)
D. The Thessalonian'sknew this order when they read Paul's first letter (1Thes.4:13-18) yet they had become
"shaken in mind...troubled...by spirit...word...and by letter (Epistle / Manuscripts) as from us, as that the day
of Christ[0] is at hand.(2Thes.2:1-2).
1. For that day (The coming of our Lord Jesus Christ 2Thes.2:1)shall not come, except there come...
a. A falling away first[0](2Thes.2:3)
b. And that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition (2Thes.2:3)
c. Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshipped; so
that he as God sitteth in (or sits) the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
(2Thes.2:3)
d. After 42 months, JESUS will destroy him with His Second Coming(2Thes.2:1-9)
(NOTE: This places the the antichrist between us (The Church) and the Coming of
our Lord JesusChrist). It is no wonder that Jesus said, "Let NO MAN" deceive you"
(Matt.24:4, 23, 1Thes.4:13-18; 5:1-9)Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with
you, (Acts.17:10:11; 20: I told you these things?(2Thes.2:1-10)"What things?"
(2Thes.2:1-9) See chart above)
e. The mystery of iniquity doth already work:(1John.4:1-4) only he (the restraining
hand of the Spirit of God)[0] who now letteth will let, untilhe be taken out of the way.
f. And now ye (you) know what withholdeth ( that he might be revealed in his time.
(1) Review: PHASE.10, Page.6
(2) Also review: PHASE.5, Page.1
g. Then shall thatwicked be revealed(2Thes.2:8)
(1) This is the "little horn" (Dan.7:25)Review: PHASE.5, Page.1
(2) Whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, (Dan.2:42; 7:9-14, Rev.20:11-20)
and shall destroy with the brightness of THE LORD JESUS CHRIST'S his coming (Grk. parousia)
(2Thes.2:8, Dan.2:44; 7:9-14, Rev.19:11-20
NOTE: The reason for pointing out this is the SAME Greek word is because the Church of the
Thessalonians were thinking[0] that Jesus would be returning at any moment. ("that the
day of Christ was at hand" 2Thes.2:1) This is why the apostle Paul [0] had to write a second
epistle (letter) to correct this error, by laying out the order of events BEFORE the
Second Coming. (That they had forgotten!)
(3) The antichrist (little horn Dan.7:25) has ONLY given 42 months (3 1/2 years Tribulation) to
continued. Afterwhich Jesus will destroyed him. (post Tribulation) Dan.7:25, Rev.13:5
h. Even him, whose coming(1John.2:18-20) is after the working of Satan (Rev.13:2-4 ) with all power
and signs and lying wonders.
D. 1 (Continued) The Thessalonian's knew this order when they read Paul's first letter
i. The apostle writes (NOTE: Acts.2:42, Gal.1:11-12) "Now we beseech you, brethren, by the
coming (Grk. parousia)[0] (1Thes.4:13-18) of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by ourgathering together
unto him. (2Thes.2:1)
(1) Gathering - complete collection of the saints(Strong's NT#1997)[0] the deadin Christ and
those are alive and remain. Both are caught up together at the the Second Coming.
(1Thes.4:13-18, 1Cor.15:51-52)
(2) NOTE: There is only ONE resurrection of the just. (Review: Chart above)(Matt.22:23, 28, 30-31,
Mark.12:18, 23, John.5:29; 11:24, Acts.17:32; 23:6-8; 24:15-21) and this ONE resurrectionincludes
the martyrs at the 5th seal (Rev.6:9-11), those that refuse to worship the beast (Rev.13:12-18; 14:12;
17:6; 18:23-24)
k. This is crucialto understand because...
(1) These saints (the martyrs at the 5th seal (Rev.6:9-11) and those that refuse to worship the
beast (Rev.13:12-18; 14:12; 17:6; 18:23-24) would have no resurrection to be caught up in.
(2) This is because there is only one resurrection for the dead in Christ to be in.
(Matt.22:23-31; 27:53, Mark.12:18-23, Luke.14:14-36, John.5:29; 11:24-25, Acts.23:6-8; 24:15 -21,
1Cor.15:21-42 ) NOTE: It is the post Trib. Coming, (Grk. parousia) not the comings
(3) Therefore there cannot be a Pre-Tribulation Rapture before the 1st seal because a "Pre-trib.
Rapture requires a resurrection. There cannot be a Coming to the cloluds without the gathering
together of the dead in Christ and those that are alive and remain.
(4) This is a pivotal doctrine about the end times because this places the tribulation is between
the Church today and the (Post Trib.) Second Coming. (Dan.7:1Thes.5:1-12, 2Thes.2:1-9)
What we must remember that only the dead in Christ are resurrected at the Second Coming. The
"rest of the dead (the unjustified)[o] unsaved / live not again (i.e. resurrected) until the thousand
years are finished" (Rev.20:5 / Review: Chart below)
Everyone is going to live forever with the Lord Jesus Christ (1Thes.4:13-18) or in hell for
eternity. (Rev.20:1-15) Now is the day to choose.
D. 1. (Continued) The Thessalonian's knew this order when they read Paul's first letter
2. Compare Paul's first letter of the Coming (Grk. parousia) in 1Thes.4:13-18and
the second letter to the Thessalonians 2Thes.2:1-9[0]
VI. Paul repeats what Jesus said, "Let no man deceive you" (Matt.24:4,23) by any means (deportment[0])
because the antichrist (the man of sin) will between US TODAY and the SECOND COMING"[0]
A. There is protection from the antichrist / son of perdition / sin
1. If we walk in darkness that daywill overtake us as a thief. (1Thes.5:1-9) Think: Noah.
God's Word is light which has the pattern for building your Ark. "What is the Ark TODAY?"
2. Protected if we walk(1John.1:1-9) in the light (i.e. ALL of God's Word / Old and New Testaments
(a) The Old Testament / Covenant gives us the pattern (1Cor.10:1-11, Rom.15:4)
(b) The apostle Paul is our masterbuilder (architect the reads blueprints / patterns found in the Old
Testament) of how to build as a co-labour (1Cor.3:10-15) with Jesus as He builds His Church
"WITHOUT HANDS" (Matt.16:18, Mark.14:58, Acts.7:47-48; 17:24, Eph.2:20-22, 1Peter.2:5)
3. We are all children of the day we are not of the night, nor of darkness. (1Thes.5:5. Psa.119:)
(a) Both Noah (2Peter.2:5) and Lot (2Peter.2:8) were children of the day
(b) Noah was awake because he was building the Ark accordingthat God's Word ( )
(c) Lot was asleep because he was "seeing and hearing" the unlwawful deeds of Sodom" ( )
(d) Therefore let us not sleep, as do others and not prepare as God commanded. (Gen.6:22,
Heb.11:7)
4. Let us watch[0]
5. Be sober[0] (to abstain from wine (keep sober), i.e. (figuratively) be discreet:—be sober, watch.
6. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
7. But let us, who are of the day,
(a) Put on the breastplate of faith and love[0]
(b) For an helmet, the hope of salvation[0]
8. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, this is why Jesus told the disciples (Matt.24:1-4) "as it was in
the days of Noah so shall it be in the days of the coming of the Son of man. "You need to build
according to my pattern"
(a) The example of Noah's day was not to focus only on the wickedness of man "for all flesh had
corrupted HIS WAY upon the earth" (Gen.6:12) and that God going to destroy the earth again,
this time with fire.
(b) The example of Noah also teaches us that we need to prepare and build "according to all the
Lord why (IF) but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
Think of the Passover If they stroked the blood on there house / Not overtaken
VII. This man of sin will oppose and exalt himself above all that is called God. (2Thes.2:6)
A. Or that is worshipped
B. So that he as God sitteth (will sit) in the temple of God, (The Church) shewing himself that
he is God. (2Thes.2:4)
VIII. And now ye know what withholdeth (to hold back, detain, retain)
A. Now you know what holding back the man of sin, that he might be revealed in his time. [0]
B. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he[0] be taken
out of the way.
C. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth,
and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
D. Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
IX. John says, "The spirit of anitchrist is already in the world (herenow while you are ready these notes)
A. The word "antichrist" means "an opponent (someone who competes against or fights another in a
contest, game, or argument; a rival or adversary: of the Messiah. The antichrist spirit right now
resisting / imitating / counterfeiting what the HOLY SPIRIT of God is doing within the Church
B. "Even now" a further confirmation that the spirit of antichrist is ALREADY in the world
C. The purpose of the "spirit of antichrist" is to conform us to the image of beast (antichrist) Counterfieting
what the Holy Spirit of God is working in the Church to be conformed to the image of Christ. (Rom.8:)
D. Look at the 5th trumpet(See PHASE.10, Page.6)
E. This is why JESUS said, "Take heed that no man deceive you" (Matt.24:4-5, 23-24) because between us
today and the Second Coming is the revealing of the antichrist. (See chart above / PHASE.10)
X. 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. (1John.2:18-20)
A. Note the pattern / falling from the inside out
1. Lucifer (Great dragon / old serpent / Devil / Satan Rev.12:9) fell from the inside out (Isa.14:11-14)
a. Lucifer said, "I will be like the most High" (Isa.14:13, 2Thes.)
b. The anointed cherub[0] the covereth / cast down to the ground (Ezk.28:16)
c. I will sit
2. The example of Judas Iscariot give us some insight into how and why this happened.
a. Just as Judas was chosen by Jesus, (Matt.10:1) this "man" begins in the Church as one of the
Eph.4:11 ministries. (apostle) Note: Peter said, " For he (Judas) was numbered with us, and had
obtained part of this ministry." (Acts 1:17-18 "apostleship" v.25)
b. Just as Judas was sent out by Jesus and performed all the signs, wonders and miracles,
(Matt.10:1-4) this "man" will do the same in Jesus name before he falls (apostate 2Thes.2:1-9) by
transgression. (Acts.1:25) Note: There was a problem developing in Judas with money
(John.12:4) before he falls by transgression and Satan enters him. (Acts.1:25, Luke.22:3, John.13:2) The pattern reveals this "man" will be same. Judas "fell" (taking all this exposure to the anointing of
God, signs, wonders and miracles with him. Like that of Lucifer, (Eze.28:11-19) he was exposed to the
truth but chose not to abide in the truth. (John.8:44-45)
c. Just as Judas betrayed Jesus for money, (Matt.26:14) this "man" will also betray Jesus for money.
d. Just as at the communion, Satan entered Judas to betray Jesus. (Luke.22:3, John.13:2) Satan will enter
"this man"
e. Just as Judas partnered with Religion and the present government to destroy Jesus,
(Mark.14:43) this "man of sin" will do the same.
3. There were "tares" among the "wheat" (Matt.13:) It took going out fromto reveal who they were
XI. The man of sin will be revealed in his time.(2Thes.2:1-8)
A. Even now there are many antichrist's (therefore it is a waste of time trying to indentify the antichrist,
because John says there "many" right now.
B. You have heard that antichrist shall come. There is a set time for the man of sin to be revealed
XII. The beast (antichrist) is a copy!
This man of sin always copies the things of God, that is why we are to be "wise unto that which is good,
(The Lord Jesus Christ) and simple concerning evil." (The antichrist) (Rom 16:19-20) The book of Revelation
begins with it's "The Revelation of Jesus Christ," (Rev 1:1) not the antichrist. Once an understanding of who
Christ is then it will automatically expose the evil workings of the antichrist. Note how many times the
antichrist copies. It began with Lucifer when said, "I will be like" Isa.14:11-14
XIII.The beast (antichrist) is a man
The first thing that Jesus said in response to the disciples question about His Second Coming, was "let no
man deceive you." (Matt.24:4) This was the same answer the apostle Paul gave to the Thessalonians. "Let
no man deceive you." (2Thes.2:3, Note: Gal.1:11-12)
1. The man of sin is the son of perdition. (2Thes.2:3)
2. A copy of Jesus was the Son of God. (Matt.1:18-25)
a. How did Jesus become the only begotten Son? (John.1:14, Heb.1:5)
b. He became the "only begotten Son" by being born of a virgin! (Matt.1:18-25) Then He did not begin
His ministry until He was 30 years old. (Luke.3:23, Num.4:3, 23, 30, 35, Matt.5:17-19) At the age of 30,
Jesus became the "Christ." He became "anointed" of the Holy Spirit. (Luke.3:21-23, Matt.1:13) Note:
Could the beast counterfeit the birth of Jesus also? The pattern would seem to indicate this. If this
proves to be true, then the antichrist would be born years before him being "revealed in his time."
(2Thes.2:6, Rev.13:5) Something to think about? This "man of sin" will have a false anointing,
preaching "another Jesus...another spirit...another Gospel." (2Cor.11:17) Watch and pray
because this "man of sin" will be revealed between us and the Second Coming!"
(Review: PHASE 10. Page.3)
XIV.The beast (antichrist) is a copy of Christ being the God / man.
Since the 1880 A.D. the "serpent" (Satan, Devil Rev.12:9) has intensified his challenge to the Deity of Christ
(i.e. Jesus is God manifest in the flesh 1Tim.3:15, 1John.4:1-3) while all the time preparing (1John.4:3,
2Thes.2:7) his man of sin that will declare himself as God manifest in the flesh. (2Thes.2:4)
XV. The beast (antichrist) is a false apostle and has his false prophet with him
This another copy. The apostle and prophet are given to responsibility for the foundation of the Church of
the Lord Jesus Christ. (Eph.2:20-22, 1Cor.3:10-11) This "man of sin" counterfeits the apostolic and prophetic
ministries laying the false foundation for his apostate Church. MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER
OF HARLOTS." (Rev.17-18) No wonder Paul wrote, "let us watch (Eph.1:18) and be sober" (1Thes.5:6) because
this preparation is happening now! (1John.4:3, 2Thes.2:7)
A. The "false prophet" is the other "beast" in Rev.13:11-18; 19:20)
B. Jesus is "our Apostle...of our profession." (Heb.3:1) Therefore, the beast / antichrist is a false apostle,
with a false anointing because he copies everything that Christ is.
NOTE: Many see the antichrist as a king over kingdoms, but they failed to see that he is a fallen ministry
out from the Church preaching "another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit,
which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted" (2Cor.11:1-14) "For such are
false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel;
for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be
transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."
C. The signs of an apostle is, "in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds. (2Cor.12:12-13) This
man of sin does "Lying" (counterfeit) signs and wonders and mighty deeds. (Note: 2Cor.11:1-7, 15)
Note: This "man of sin" will be revealed before Jesus returns! (Review: What about the Rapture)
XVI. The “beast” Having seven heads and ten horns
A. Seven is completeness (Gen.2:1-2, )
B. Heads - Control center (a counterfeit / “like” (Isa.14:11-14) Christ is the head of the Body)
C. Ten horns - Power / authority
1. There were horns mention upon the Golden Altar (Rev.9:13)
2. Daniel called “horns” kings / kingdoms(Dan.7:24-25)
3. Horns / power (Joab grabbed the horns of the Altar to protect himself)
4. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders,
stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of
God sent forth into all the earth. (Dan.7:23-25, Rev.5:6; 12:9; 13:1-5; 16:14) NOTE: "whole"
D. Revelation 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having
seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. (SAME Identification marks as his man
of sin
E. Revelation 17:3 “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman (Harlot
woman) sit .upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
F. Revelation 17:7 “And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of
the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
1. NOTE: Revelation 17:12
2. And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings (Dan.7:, Rev.17:12)
3. Which have received no kingdom as yet
4. But receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
a. One Hour - (Same hour Acts., not for an hour Gal., now is the hour of)
b. With the beast (Therefore this Rev.17 Harlot woman was within the time frame of the the beast /
antichrist / man of sin / son of perdition
G. Revelation.17:16 ‘And the ten horns (kings) which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the
whore, (The Rev.17 Harlot woman / apostate Church) and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall
eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
1. This is in harmony with Daniel (Dan.7:7)
2. After this I saw in the night visions, and
a. behold a fourth beast,
b. dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly;
c. and it had great iron teeth:
d. it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it:
e. and it was diverse from all the beasts (Lion / Bear / Leopard v.1-5)that were before it;
f. and it had ten horns.
XVII. And upon his horns ten crowns and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
A. Horns are kings that are crowned (power to rule)
B. Upon his (seven heads / complete control center)
IV. And the beast which I saw
A. This is the same beast as in (Rev.13:)
B. NOTE: There was ANOTHER BEAST. “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth;
1. and he had two horns
2. Like a lamb - counterfeit / another Jesus / a antichrist
3. and he spake as a dragon.
4. Revelation identified this “beast” as the “false prophet” (Rev.19:20)
V. Like unto a leopard
A. Nebuchadnezzar: Dan.2:39 “another kingdom inferior to thee’ which we know as Media-Persia (Dan.8:20) B. Nebuchadnezzar: Dan.2:39 “another kingdom
VI. And his feet were as the feet of a bear [0] (Media-Persia Dan.2:)
VII. And his mouth as the mouth of a lion:[0] (Babylon Dan.7:6
VIII. And the dragon (old serpent, Devil and Satan / Lucifer) gave him his power, and his seat,
and great authority.
IX. This "beast" has the identification marks of X Dan.8:20 / Horns were kings but this Vision had it’s fulfillment
during the Media-Perisa / Greece XI. . XII. . XIII. . XIV.
...
So will his man of sin / son of perdition
antichrist
"I will be
like
the most
High."
(Isa.14:11-14)
"What shall be the sign of your Coming?"
Think of Noah. He was already inside the Ark (the he built according to God's pattern) Light / did not need to know the day or the hour. He needed to build and enter in when God said.
Suffering ------------------------------------------glory that should follow (Eph.5:21-31)
The
spirit of antichrist press towards the MARK of the false high calling of the god of this world
Why has
it taken
so long?
The Lord is
not slack
(Late, tardy)
concerning his
promise, as
some men count
slackness;[0] but
is longsuffering /
waiting patiently
(James.5:7-8)
Remember this pattern / principle
"They went out from us" (The Church)
God WAITED(1Peter.1:18-20) "manifest in these last times"
Adam / Eve WAITED(Gen.3:15)---------------
They ALL fit in this frame work of this Redemptive Week
Jesus fulfiils these Feast in Him (who is the head of the body the Church)
Daniel WAITED(Dan.9:24-26)
Think of many translations of the BIBLE that have MANY FOOTNOTES
casting doubt that JESUS IS DEITY .
