In part 5 of this series of posts regarding THE END I emphasize the buildup to the Tribulation. In a nutshell the buildup will be an increasingly troubled world in need of countless solutions.
It is into these helpless and hopeless conditions that the Antichrist will rise onto the scene. Off course, the world's problems will be seriously worsened by the Rapture. The world will not know how to solve this, and other challenges. It will be the perfect back drop for the Antichrist to be revealed as the Solutionist - the problem solver.
In this post I will focus on the Antichrist who becomes a main figure in the Tribulation even though He will not have the final say. The world has seen many influential people over the course of its history but none of them will compare to this man, the Antichrist.
Everything that needs to be known about the Antichrist has already been prophesied in God’s Word. It may seem like a scary and fearful topic to discuss but “prophecy is meant to prepare you and not to scare you”.
