The United Nations awaits their Antichrist. He will appear to be a friend of Israel at the beginning of the 7 years of 'Peace and Security'.
Halfway through those 7 years, he will betray Israel and show that he is indeed bearing all the power and authority of Satan (Revelation chapter 13 is quite clear on this).
ALSO, at this point, the False Prophet will force everyone on the face of the Earth who wishes to buy and sell to take the Mark of the Beast.
Those refusing (Tribulation Saints) will be killed (beheaded, overwhelmingly).
They will gain their eternal life by refusing the Mark of the Beast.
Revelation 20:4 King James Version
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%2020%3A4&version=KJV
