Introduction
Jesus made a very simple statement one time as he was talking to the religious doubters of his day.
matt 12:30
Today, I want to talk to you about what it means to be anti-christ.
When you here the word anti-christ, I’m sure it concours up some thoughts of the end time stories that you heard.
We will talk about some of that today as well, but I want to focus on the spirit behind the action.
Today we will discuss the spirit of anti-christ and how we can be effected by it if we are not careful.
I’m sure that most if not all of us in this room would say, “I’m not anti-christ.”
but yet our actions sometimes would say otherwise.
One of the responsibilities that every parent feels is warning your kids about the dangers to come.
The world we live in now is not the world I grew up in.
There are more dangers, more predators, more vices than I could have ever imagined.
Our study of the book of Daniel is entitle: “In the World.”
Connecting without compromising your faith.
Daniel was receiving warning signs and visions from God of both wrath and the salvation to come.
So far we the book has illustrated the superiority of God’s kingdom to any other kingdom on Earth.
There is only one God and he is sovereign and creator of all things.
In Chapter 7 & 8 we are introduced to a new character that will come on the scene.
He is the last king that will rise out of the Babylonian world system and is referred to as “the little horn,” The man of lawlessness, the son of perdition, and the beast from the sea.
He is a real person and not a world system.
He is empowered by Satan and with the false prophet forms a false trinity that will lead a rebellion and tribulation on the earth.
He could already be on the scene moving toward his ultimate reign, but my intention is not to try and guess who that is.
I will leave that to others.
As we see these scriptures and prophecies play out before our eyes, don’t you think it’s import to know who’s team you are on.
Being anti-christ doesn’t mean you have to wear upside down crosses or get a goat head tattooed on your chest.
Satan is slicker than that.
All you have to do to be anti-christ is just go with the flow.
Let the world tell you what to do and how to live, because Satan is running the world system right now.
Let’s dive into the scriptures and get educated on the spirit of anti-christ so we will know how to be “In the World, connecting without compromising our faith.”
Understanding the time brings an urgency for God’s kingdom.
Body
Daniel’s revelation of the “time of the end.”
So Daniel is having these visions but they are not for Daniel’s day.
They are for a time at the end of Gentile (worldly) kingdoms when Christ will come to rule and reign forever.
We are living in the last hour.
1 John 2:18
For the last 2600 years there has been no king in Israel.
The earth has been run by the kings of this world, the Gentiles.
Christians must learn how to function in a world orchestrated by the spirit of antichrist.
Daniel 8:23
Christians must learn how to function in a world orchestrated by the spirit of antichrist.
Eph 2:
This false spirit is all around us.
It’s in the economy.
It’s in the movies we watch and the music we listen to.
It influences the way companies are run.
It’s in our schools.
It’s in our homes through the internet, social media, pornography.
This is the major theme of Daniel life and our study.
To be in a world that is compromised by the spirit of antichrist and not compromise ourselves along with it.
We have been given the task of building a kingdom inside a kingdom.
This kingdom has one final king.
It is in these last days that the Gentile rule has one final crescendo.
One final climax in the form of one final king.
Understanding the spirit of the time produces an allegiance to the right kingdom.
The timeline of the last hour.
(display timeline graphic)
The resurrection of Christ was the first defeat of the Gentile kingdom and brought us into the “Age of Grace.”
Christ is now building his kingdom through His bride the church.
Those that believe and receive Jesus as Lord and King will rule and reign with him in the new kingdom.
The revealing of the Antichrist.
The world recognizes their king and receives him as their god.
The rapture of the Church.
At the appointed time King Jesus will come in the clouds and remove his people from this kingdom.
The wrath of God.
God brings 7 years of tribulation to judge the world of sin and prepares Israel to receive Christ as their King.
The Return of Christ.
After the 7 years Christ will return to the earth with his subjects to rule and reign on the Earth for 1000 years.
We have further revelation from Paul in about the AntiChrist.
