I heard an anti-christ theory on one of the local religious radio stations the other day. I thought I’d heard them all but this was a new one to me.

According to this guy, The Anti-Christ is actually Nimrod. He died 5,000 years ago and his tomb, somewhere in Egypt, has been guarded faithfully by a secret cult as the body of the god Osiris up until this day. This body will be given life and arise to become the Anti-Christ.

That sounds like a script for a B-grade movie.

I don't buy the 5,000 year old tomb stuff, but Nimrod can be looked at as a type of anti-Christ.

The name Nimrod means "He who rebels."

Nimrod was probably the driving force behind the building of the Tower of Babel (the Bible lists Nimrod as Babylon's king).

Nimrod created the first "world government," and he did so by military conquest.

There was a long standing tradition that Nimrod was possessed by the devil (there were a lot of ancient stories about Nimrod, but since they aren't in the Bible I take them with a grain of salt).

The point is, saying Nimrod was an anti-Christ type of figure is reasonable.
