Antichrist

I will be examining "Antichrist Barbie" and "Sensational Barbie" by Denise Duhamel. These poems show how easily children are persuaded by what they see and have to play with. Susie Orbach's "Losing Bodies" shares themes that are in both of the poems. Duhamel's poems demonstrate dystopian themes and the persuasion that toys have on children. Susie Orbach's "Losing Bodies" and Duhamel's "Antichrist Barbie" both show how people can be persuaded to think a certain way just by their surroundings.…

“The Stranger” People's actions often heavily reflect the person's character and that is why in my opinion people and their actions are evil not just their behaviors.the quote “Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.” by Mahatma Gandhi is a good quote on how people's actions reflect character. In the book “ The Stranger “ Meursault is a…

With Saul in particular, we have typology of the Antichrist and Christ side-by-side. Scripture says, “The women sang as they played, and said, ‘Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands.’” (1 Sam. 8:7) David here is a type of Christ who would later have His own triumphal entry into Jerusalem, riding on a donkey. (John 12:14-15) The foremost and consummate antichrist type in the Bible is Antiochus Epiphanes. In the book, “The Understanding of Ornament in the Italian Renaissance”,…

After researching material on Daniel 9:24-27, I will write an exegetical/expositional research paper detailing my own verse-by-verse, point-by-point interpretation of this important prophetic text. In this paper I will describe my own approach to Daniel’s Prophecy of Seventy Weeks. To support my thoughts, I also interact with the various approaches that have been suggested by individual commentators and broader eschatological/theological systems. Specifically, I will be sure to describe the…

Sociopath”. What? You thought Trump wrote the book? I would never “personally” say Trump didn’t write it but I hear some are sayin’… (Trump tactic in play). Verse 26 has the Antichrist “coming to his end” as the kingdom is handed over to the saints for an everlasting kingdom; clearly a reference to the end of not only the Antichrist but of the age as the Lord returns to set up His kingdom on earth. The next reference in chapter 8 is even more revealing as it points to the character…

typifies the Antichrist exposed in all of his wickedness before the Lord. Notice what the text says, “Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, ‘Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your deeds your sins appear—because you…

It is safe to say I have read a few books on eschatology/prophecy (study of the last things). Many describe The Antichrist as a mastermind without differentiating between a mastery that stems from wisdom and understanding, and a “cunning” that proceeds from craftiness and wickedness. They are not the same. The latter is a mastery of foolishness. The Antichrist is anti-Christ. Although in appearances, he may try to imitate him, in reality, he is everything Christ is “not”. Where does wisdom come…

Christ’s rebirth for His believers. As Jesus opens the first seal, a white horse and rider go forth on earth. The breaking of the first seal is imperative, and that the world identifies the first rider as the Antichrist, so they can understand the three False Prophets that follow. The Antichrist and his kingdom are obviously what Jesus is revealing by the rider on the white horse. A leader, such as Adolf Hitler as a worldwide conqueror is one who rides on a horse symbolizing his personal goals,…

As already stated, Antiochus is one of the clearest types of The Antichrist in The Bible. The Abomination of Desolation that Antiochus committed is a “type” from the 2nd century B.C., that points forward to its future “anti-type” which shall be fulfilled half-way through The Tribulation Period — Daniel’s 70th week. Types…

boasting, give him a minute or two – it will come. It would be interesting to calculate what percentage of any given non-teleprompter speech is devoted to boasting. In Scripture, the phrase, “a mouth speaking great things”, is associated with The Antichrist. In this case, “great things” speaks of a boasting about the measure of “greatest” he sees in himself, not an intrinsic greatness in the words themselves. After the tragic terrorist shooting in Orlando that left fifty people dead, Trump’s…
