Revelation and Prophecy :: EschatologyJack Van ImpeWhen the term beast is used in allegorical language in the Bible like in Daniel and Revelation it is always an empire or a kingdom. You will find no verses that reverse this definition. But then the number of the beast is 666 and so it should be quite clear what kingdom that is. From the thousands of Islamic sites in this search you will find that it represents perfection, indeed perhaps even holiness, in Islam. http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=quran+ ... eb-t&x=wrt There is no "The" antichrist. The word is only used 4 times in scripture in which it is never capitalized, because it's meaning is crystal clear: 1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 1 John 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. 1 John 4:3 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, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. From SCRIPTURE you can readily tell that antichrist is a SPIRIT that lives in the dark heart of anyone who denies the Sonship of Jesus Christ. AN antichrist is anyone who denies Jesus Christ. Here is Islam regarding the Sonship of Jesus Christ: Founding verses from the Dome of the Rock: "O you People of the Book, overstep not bounds in your religion, and of God speak only the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, is only an apostle of God, and his Word which he conveyed unto Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from him. Believe therefore in God and his apostles, and say not Three. It will be better for you. God is only one God. Far be it from his glory that he should have a son." Yahoo - god has no son quran - http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=god+ha ... =&ei=UTF-8 |
