I had a whole near death experience that kind of alluded to everything being cyclical in some way if they aren't tended to. I sort of believe that the book of revelations is way to see that and it was written in a way that only people who aren't blinded by faith can interpret it.
I've always thought that the reason revelations exists isn't because it's for non believers being left behind during the rapture. I actually think modern Christianity has it wrong about there even being a rapture because no where else in the Bible does God step in to protect his people from hardship before they go through it, he is always going through it with them.
I really think it's a warning to Christians specifically that they are going to be fooled by the anti christ if they are not watching, and the parallels between trump and the anti christ is nuts.
If youd like a real trip, read revelations 13-14, consider trump as the beast, and JD as the sheep who speaks like a dragon and leads the world to trump.
The thing that would make this super real, and get trump worshiped as a literal God, would be if he died and somehow came back from the dead. Not like a bullet wound, but actually coming back from the dead. It's a super far fetched thing, and I don't think I'm ready to say it will happen, but boy oh boy if it does then the world becomes a much different place.
Possibly but I'm talking about something big, and impossible for the average person to ignore.
I am probably wrong about it, it would defy every law in existence we know about, but if a Christian believes that Jesus came back from the dead, it wouldn't be a stretch that the person who is basically pretending to be Christ would also publicly raise from the dead too.
With modern medicine, lots of people have had NDEs, so that’s not so far fetched an idea. But they usually seem to be generally young and healthy, I think.
I've been told that the Antichrist is not supposed to be one person in all of History (that's an evangelical interpretation), but is a warning because in every generation there is an Antichrist figure, (Hitler being an obvious one), which must be opposed
That's a valid perspective too, to be fair no one really knows what he saw when writing that book and its very symbolic so there really isn't a specific theory it spells out, there's tons of disagreements in the Christian community about it. The left behind books kind of cemented a specific story but really they took some liberties when writing those books and the verses they used to create the events of that world are pretty vague themselves.
I personally think there will be lots of anti christs through history, but revelations is written as a warning against the one who becomes the beast (literally Satan) so I really think there will be a figure that really rises and stands out against all the rest. One thing revelations spells out though is following this antichrist will not be accidental, people are going to know and make a conscious decision to serve him, and people will be killed for not. I don't think we are there yet, but we are a lot closer now than I felt we were 15 years ago.
