Second Thessalonians 2:3-4 tells us how we will recognize the Antichrist: “don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.”
Exactly- there won’t be any guessing who the a tichrist is when he sets himself up in the temple and defiles it.
But- what of the “great rebellion”? I’m wondering if it will be something unmistakable that happens all of a sudden, or something that just creeps in and rots the world? We see sin creeping into our nation little by little, bUT we also see the remnant wardin it off through various means- once the remnant are removed though, evil will have nothing holding it back or resisting it any longer- and it Wil. Really take off in a big hurry I beleive.
