REVELATIONS 3: 6, 7, & 8 "And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints; and to overcome them: and power was given unto him over all kindreds and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth will worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb, slain from the foundation of the world."

The Bible is not written with idle words. The above scriptures describe the coming of anti-Christ and it will surely be seen in the latter days; which may be sooner than most think. There was no Bible in the world for several thousand years after the Romans overcame God's people in 325 AD, and until they regained a national status in 1611. They elected King James to rule over them, and he ordered a Bible to be written. A group of the wisest, best educated, and most spiritual men were chosen to write the Bible; known as the King James Edition; which is still with us with but few additions or deletions. It gives a brief history of worldly events from the beginning of time in Genesis to the ending of time in Revelations which is yet greatly future.

God is the Only One Who can know the future and the Bible describes so many happenings relating to the future that is already being clearly seen. Will you believe anti-Christ will make war against the saints and overcome them? That should greatly concern you and you had better believe. It is in the Bible and is going to happen. Is your name written in the Lamb's book of life? God's Holy Spirit writes all names there who confess Christ as Savior.

Revelations is not the only place in the Bible to describe the coming of anti-Christ. 2Th. 2:3 "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition." Sin is causing a great falling away right now, and anti-Christ may come at any time. Matthew saw it and tells in Matthew 24:21. "For then shall be great tribulation, such as not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be." Please note that the real Christ will not come until immediately after that great tribulation, and after the anti-christ has caused his terror.

Don't be deceived by the growing popularity of a false rapture. That is not in any Bible and it is a lie. Read John 17:15 to see what Jesus prayed to God about that. Quote; "Father, I pray not that Thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that Thou shouldest keep them from the evil." You will never find rapture ever mentioned for the first 1,800 years of Bible history.
