Antichirists-who are they?

            One of the Great Deceptions

To uncover the "Antichrist and the Antichrist"  we need to understand the importance of identity.  We certainly understand the improtance of our own names, connecting us to a family, to a bank account, and for paying our taxes but many fail to pay this kind of attention to our Creator, to our Savior.   Let me express how important this is, then we will see the truth in identifying the Antichrists and the Antichrist.  It is a battle of names, marks, seals, all having to do with names.  Which god is you god, whom do you call Lord, what is His Name, can you tell me?

The Identity, the Name, must be considered

When it comes to identifying the Creator God and His Son the Christ, the scholars and teachers of the word ignore their identity.  The true Savior, the Messiah, came to proclaim a "salvation" made available to all mankind and to reveal God the Father, and that He, YaHshua, came in that Father's Name.  The Gospel of John is all about "identity" -- John 5:43; John 6:46; John 17:12; John 17:25: John 10:25; John 14:28; John 7:16; 1 John 4:2; Rev 2:3; 2:13; 3:8; 3:5; 3:12; 21:27; 22:4 ---- "... and His NAME will be on their foreheads" -- ever wonder what the "mark" of God is?  The teacher of the word, the scholars of the Scriptures should all be ashamed -- why don't they correct this error, this deception of "identity".  The modern self-proclaimed prophets spend a great deal of time searching out the "identity" of the Beast and the False Prophet and have no problem properly identifying Satan, but when it come to the Creator, or the Identity of the Father? 

  These teachers are without excuse - along with virtually every Christian minister - telling us god is God, lord is LORD.  It is the same as telling us that all mountains are Sinai! They see the majesty, they see the beauty and they speak of the power then they tell us that it is the Lord, God or Jesus – supplanting the Savior’s name with a false identity and ignoring the Father's true identity as revealed to us by His Son. -- They call on the Majesty of all Majesties by other names, or resort to using titles as names covering the true identity that separates the Living God and His Son from all the false, dead gods and lords of this world.  To say you have god and that we are all searching for god in different ways is in error.  Who is your god?  Even Islam make this error, they call on Allah as a name and if it is then it too is a false name.  The term Allah is a term to replace the term “god” as a name -- in this they are correct but in the name they are wrong -- If we say Allah is their name for God, then what is your name for God?  If we say “God” is His name then what is the name of His son - can you tell me?  It is easy to prove, without a doubt, that “Jesus” is not His name and never could have been -- let’s establish a few things concerning His Identity and the importance of this knowledge concerning the identities of the antichrists. 

If you do not have the Son, you do not have the Father (1 John 2:23)

There is only one name found among mankind that can save (Acts 4:12)

The AntiChrists (more than one) can be identified (1 John 4:1-4)

The liar is the one that denies YaHshua is the Christ, such is the AntiChrist (1 John 2:22-23)

"I will declare your name to my brothers; ..."  (Hebrews 2:12)

Salvation - Confession

 "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men (that would be to say, "found among mankind") by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)

The Name pointing to the One True Savior is a Name "found among mankind" -- it is not a secret Name, a Name of angels or of some secret object, no, it is a Name men have and do use, a Name with the honor of being applied to our Savior. 

The test verses are:

(Philippians 2:11)  And that every tongue should confess that YaHshua the Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 

(Matthew 10:32)  Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

(1 John 4:15)  Whosoever shall confess that YaHshua is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

(2 John 1:7)  For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that YaHshua the Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an Antichrist.

Restoring His Name -- Restore His Name

  By restoring our Savior's birth name we can see the impact of the above verses.  The name JESUS is a modern invention coming to us from around the 16-17 th century (Orginally spelled, Iesus, in the KJV of 1611-- how would you pronounce that name?). The European version of this lie concerning the "birth name" of our Savior is IeSUS even this day,  pronounced Ie-Zuus (The - Zeus ?).   It is the British, the Americans and other English speaking people that say Jesus (gee-zuz).  The claim is this name, Iesus is from the Greek Iesous, pronounced Ie-soos, or Hay-soos, not even close to the English.  The truth is far from the twisted and twisitng of names so closely associated with names appealing to the Romans and the Greeks.  The birth Name of the Messiah is YaH-shua (Seen as Joshua, in the O.T. KJV and all other modern versions), which is to say, YH's Saviour, or YaH's Salvation.  He came in the name of His Father, YH (YaH).  His birth name came from our Heavenly Father by way of an angelic messenger, not by man -- a Name choosen from among men but choosen by His Father from Heaven.   Joseph and Mary were instructed to Name Him a Name from His Heavenly Father -- They were not asked their opinion!  They were both told, at different times and apart from one another, what to Name this child!

To Joseph: (Matthew 1:21 ) "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou (Joseph) shalt call his name JESUS (?): for he shall save his people from their sins." KJV 

(Do you see the lie?  Jesus did not exist at that time but the Name Joshua did and does, it is found in the Holy Bible, one of the O.T. books is named by that name, Joshua (Y'shua) but the translators choose to use a corrupted name, a name following a corrupt tradtion, a name more closely related to a pagan god than to a champion of Scripture.  Our Savior named a Name choosen by His Heavenly Father.  It would have been correct, at the time of the creation of the KJV Authorized, in their present knowledge, to have used the name "Joshua" but they followed the tradtion of the Roman Church in using a corrupted name)  

To Mary: (Luke 1:31)  And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS (?). KJV 

(Jesus is not the name given to Mary -- this is not the name Mary is commanded to name the child to be conceived -- she is told to Name Him YaHshua, the same name as the man that led Israel into the promise land.  At the birth of our Savior He was Named, YaHshua, like the Joshua of the KJV, and it could not have been this bogus name found in modern tranlsations as the name Jesus did not exist then, not until around 1600 years later and eventually finding a home in the translation known as the King James Authorized Version -- a government bible approved by the king to be read in the churches of England)

What our Savior Said

(John 6:43) I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me; But someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him. NIV (A different name is accepted without any resistance at all-- incredible)

(John 17:8) Holy father, protect them by the power of your name -- the name you gave me -- so  that they may be one as we are one.

  Do you see the error of the world's wisdom?  The LIE presented as truth.  Following the traditions of men they do error in teaching JESUS as YaHshua.  The JESUS of the King James Version is emphasized by all capital letters, in the verses quoted, pointing to its significance, but this name is dead wrong even though the tranlators have "capitalized" that bogus name to signifiy its importance -- they know but deny the power there of, following their own customs and tradtions, denying the Holy Name of our Savior.  The name delivered by the angelic messenger, the name "thou shalt call", is YaHshua, a Hebrew name for a Hebrew baby, not the pagan name JESUS (Hey-Zeus, or He-soos).  Yes, there is the arguement -- no one can prove the name Jesus is in reference to the Greek and Roman god Zues -- this does not remove the fact that 2/3 of the world pronounce Jesus as Ie-Zues, or "the Zues".  The fact is, pagan Europe does not say, Gee-sus, like the English, but Hey-Zues (Ie-sus).  Please, let us wake up, do not allow this delusion to fog your mind.  The name Jesus is not the Hebrew/Jewish equivelant of YaHshua -- YaHshua is the equivelant -- from Hebrew/Jewish to English and European is YaHshua.  In the 16th century, when the KJV translators were at work the equivelant would have been Joshua, or Ieshua, pronounced, YeHshua, but they chose, Ie-sus instead.  Why?  Think about it a little and you will know the answer.

In John 6:43, by the Christ's own words, He claims to have come in His Father's name and later in His tormented prayer He specificly states He was "given" this name (John 17:11), a name of power and salvation, a name that separates Him and our Heavenly Father from all other gods, all other "lords", a Name making reference to His and our Heavenly Father.  Notice, also, that He says someone will come in a different name and will be accepted (John 6:43). In this we see a prophetic statement witnessed by the body of the Living Christ, the Church, His Church on this Earth that an another name, a different name, a different Messiah being accepted by the World.  

Who are the anti-christs, the anti-messiah people?  Those denying YaHshua as Savior?  you must answer this for yourself.  There is more than one "antichrist" but hsi does not exclude the coming of a special "antichirst" -- more on this revalation later. 

Are names important?

The Scriptures are filled with references about names and the Name of the Creator but for now I would like to quote just one, a verse that is a little more personal to you, and me.

(Revelation 3:5)  He that over cometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

It seems that your name is important, how much more the Messiah's, and of our Heavenly Father?  He, YaHshua, is willing to confess your name before His Father, so, where should this leave us? 

(Mat 10:32)Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

(2Ti 2:19) Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

(Php 2:10-11) That at the name of YaHshua every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that YaHshua the Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

 

So!  Who are the Anti-Christs, the Anti-Messiah?

  If  you haven’t guessed you need to reread everything on this page.  The Antichrist can be a single personality and it can also be an uncountable number of people, like other professors of the faith and like those of other religions -- Islam acknowledges YaHshua as a prophet but denies Him as the Son of God, they deny Him as Savior.  Anyone that denies "YaHshua as the Messiah", come in the flesh, is an Antichrist, an anti-messiah.  Anyone denying YaHshua as Savior will also be denied, by YaHshua.  If you count yourself a believer and accept "Jesus" as Messiah and deny "YaHshua", then you must answer the question, who is the Messiah?  Jesus or YaHshua?  If you say "Jesus", knowing better, having the knowledge of His true identity, then you qualify for the title, "AntiChrist".  This is a question you need to answer.  No, Jesus is not YaHshua, and it does matter. 

(Philippians 2:9-11) Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and  gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of YaHshua every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,  and every tongue confess that YaHshua the Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. NIV

(Heb 13:15) Through YaHshua, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise--the fruit of lips that confess his name. NIV

(1Jn 2:18) Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. NIV

(2Jn 1:7) For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that YaHshua the Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. KJV

(1Jn 4:3) And every spirit that confesseth not that Yahshua the Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. KJV

(1Jn 2:22) Who is a liar but he that denieth that YaHshua is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

    Reading the above verses it is plain to see there can be more than one "Antichrist", and it is the acceptance or rejection of a NAME that determines this.  There is another scripture that speaks of a single individual that is identified by many as the Antichrist, and while this may be true, he is not alone.

(2Th 2:3-4) 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; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

   This "man of sin" is written about from many different angles to the exclusion of the other "antichrists", in most cases.  What is unusual about this single "antichrist" is his personal deception.  Not only does he deny Yahshua but goes against all that is called God (?) -- all that is worshipped (?) -- seeing himself as God (?).  His personal deception is so great it does not only deceived his followers but himself as well -- he believes he is  God.  The ultimate deceiver is one that believes the "lie" also, and while he reached the hieght of deception, of deceiving and being deceived, he is not alone.  This trait is common, in varying degrees, among the great artists of presuasion,the more you believe in your product yourself the more convincing you can be.

(2Ti 3:13) But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

   All the same, this special antichrist is given something other deceivers of the past have not ever been granted, something that will push him over the top as the ultimate eceiver of all time, head long into a deception that will end on the worst way, eternal death.  You might say this coming great deceiver, thinking himself to be God is the child of Satan -- Satan's attempt at doing what has already been done.

(Rev 13:2) "... and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority".

(Rev 13:4) And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

What do we see?  Satan, that old Dragon, receives adulation vicariously through the Beast, that Antichirst thinking himself to be God -- Satan's desire, to be as God.  The ultimate deceiver is granted the "power" of Satan and even given his seat of authority.  This has to be a really big deal for Satan, to relinquish power to a human, even to giving up his "seat", the place of his authority?  One cloud say, Satan in the flesh, the stuff movies are made of, but in this case it will be real.  We can see from history what men will do and have done thinking they are doing the will of God, or have been choosen by God for a greater purpose.  Some have sacrificed their own lives for the sake of others but others, maybe fewer in number, have caused either directly or indirectly the death of millions.  Imagine someone with the full power of Satan?  Son of Satan, the ultimate deceiver and denier of YaHshua as the Christ.

Some others have suggested the coming "Antichrist" will be a Muslim, the 12th Imam, perhaps?  This is not something new.  For anyone with access to a Clark's commentary you will see Clark saw the Islamic religion as a religion of Satan and the Antichrists of his day and of bible prophecy.  This bible commentary dates from 1830 AD so the idea Islam is connected with the "antichrist" image is not new, far from it.  

                   Consider

Consider, the Difference between Jesus and Yahshua!

  1. Jesus followers depict him in paintings having long hair, like a woman.  Yahshua, likely had short hair considering the Apostles instructions -- 1 Cor 11:14-15 "... if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him"

  2. Jesus birthday is celbrated on December 25, 01 AD (or is it 00 AD?).  YaHshua's birth is not really known for sure but educated guesses and biblical evidence suggest September - October, B.C. 4-7, probably around the Feast of Trumpets (Holy Day for the Israelites and Jews - a day Christians should consider with respect to Matthew 24:31).  One thing is sure, the shepherds and the sheep were still out in the open.  By the month of December the sheep would have been corralled and the shepherds indoors, winters in the area of Bethlehem are not pleasant. Nowhere is the birth of our Savior made into a Holy day, or holiday, and not one of the Apostles suggest we celebrate His birth. There is a lot, however,  mentioned about Him being the Passover and our Passover (not Easter, a pagan festival of fertility and rebirth).  He is the sacrificial Lamb and is our Passover but few Christians recognize the Passover, opting instead for Easter, of pagan origin, having to do with fertility rites and the resurrection of the Sun (sun rise services).  Please, be sure in your own mind as one man honors one day over another and another does not, just be sure it is all in honor of your Savior, be convinced in your own mind.  Pagan festivals have no power over you, or shouldn't on way or another.  they cannot hurt you nor do you good, but whatever you decide decide in His honor for He has sat you free from all commandments of men. 

  3. Jesus is worshiped in "Sunrise services" every Sunday Easter by millions of professing Christians.  Facing the east, early Sunday morning, professing believers pay homage to the rising of the sun as a symbol of the rising of the Son of God from the dead.  YaHshua, in reality, had already risen - the tomb was found "empty" early Sunday morning, the angel telling the first visitors, "He is gone" (Mat 28:1-6).  He was not there He was already gone.  His resurrection occurred late Saturday evening.  How do we know?  We consider point 4 --

  4. Jesus is said to have been crucified Friday evening and raised back to life on Sunday morning, a length of time hardly even close to what Yahshua said -- hardly a day and a half.  YaHshua said the only proof he would give would be the sign of Jonah.  The sign of Jonah is the defining proof and to suggest anything else is to call the Messiah, YaHshua, a liar (forgive me Father for making such a statement).  Jonah had been in the belly of the great fish, prepared by YHWH for this purpose, for three days and three nights (Jonah 1:17, Matthew 12:30-40).

  YaHshua was cut off in the midst of the week on Passover Wednesday, a full three days and three nights ahead of His resurrection, not on Friday, just as He said.  YaHshua spent three days and three nights in the grave, not a day and a half. -- Crucified on Wednesday covered in death that evening as the sun began to set, resurrected Saturday evening, exactly three days and three nights later, just as Jonah was in the belly of the "great fish".  Jesus, on the other hand, cannot meet the truth test for the Messiah's claim of being the Son of the Living God.  Read it again - Matthew 12:39-41, Luke 11:29-32.  Jesus, as proclaimed by the vast majority of Christian teachers, was only one day and a half in the grave.

 5.  Jesus is honored weekly on the Suns-day, the first day of the week.  YaHshua observed the seventh day, the Sabbath, as a day of the week to honor the Creator God of the Bible.  The Creator, YHWH,  also the Creator of the seventh day, a day He called a day of rest (Gen 2:2-3). This is keeping with the Ten Commandments so many Christians adore but ignore.  The Sabbath command is the Fourth Command, "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy" (Exodus 20:1-17).  Can anyone find where in the pages of scripture we are told the Sabbath day (seventh day of the week) had been changed to the Sun's day, to the first day of the week?  No, but the followers of Jesus have changed the time to suit their false god, or should I say the Pope of the Catholic religion.  A little research into history of the church and it is easy to uncover the changing of times (holy days) and seasons (the calendar) were hallmark events for the Catholic Church and is its mark of supremacy over the Christian communities, even to this day.  The Protestants coming out of the Roman Church may have parted ways with Mother Chruch but they took with them the tradtions intoduced having origins based in pagan influences.  Pagan holydays (hoidays) and festivals being renamed and twisted to fit certain Christian events.  From the Protestant daughters of the roamn Church other childern were spawned in various forms but all maintaining the same celebrations. festivals, and customs all the way to accepting the false "Jesus", a false Christ, not of the Holy bible but only posing as such.

All the same, it is the responsibility of the "professing Christian" to prove the truth, "rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Tim 2:15).  Your Salvation is your responsibility  (Philippians 2:12) not someone elses. 

  6. Jesus' followers think they are to convert the whole world, to create the Kingdom of God on earth -- and then go to Heaven?  YaHshua says our citizenship is in heaven and that He is going to establish the Kingdom of the Father on earth when He returns, Heaven is coming here and our citizenship is coming with Him (Philippians 3:20-21, Eph 2:19, 1 Peter 1:17, Rev 21). 

  7. Followers of Jesus say they are commanded, commissioned, to preach the Gospel to the whole world and then the Kingdom will come.  Yahshua, in reality, gave that command to the Apostles and even though they are all dead, their words and teachings cover the globe. They accomplished their commission, not by their power but by His.  China is receiving the Word in their own language and this is truly a wonderful thing considering they are about the last country on the face of this earth the gospel message is both preached and published by the Holy Bible in the words of the prophets and the Apostles.  China, the last hold out, had placed the death penalty on anyone owning a bible, let alone preach its message in this generation and today there are bibles coming off printing presses in China.  And by what power has this come about?  What power has kept the Holy bible alive with the Apostlic message and the words of our Savior going around the world?  Who can take singular credit?  What was, and is, Yahshua's last command to His followers?  Contrary to what you have been told --  read it for yourself -- the Last command or our Savior to His followers:

Revelation 22:10  " Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile; let him who does right continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy."    (In other words, mind your own business -- this is the last command of our Savior)  

  Does this sound like a command to convert the world?  Hardly.  The Spirit of our Father moves wherever it wishes, opening and closing the minds of men and women.  By His Spirit, not by power or might is the Gospel revealed and the true Messiah made known.  Millions upon millions of believers have been murdered in the name of Christianity under the name of Jesus, Iesus, Isous, Isis.  Preaching the gospel of men while holding the Holy Bible in one hand the sword in the other is totally contrary to the message of the Messiah, YaHshua.  Pagan Christianity has slaughter millions in the name of their god, Iesus, thinking they are doing THE GOD a service but in reality they have killed many thousands of saints, those true believers and possessors of the Holy Spirit, of YaHshua, true citizens of the coming Kingdom.

The Anitchrists are those that reject Yahshua as Messiah.  A time will come when everyone, in the judgement day, will have to make a choice, Yahshua or Jesus or some other god claiming authority belonging only to our Creator.  Salvation is found in no other.

(Rom 14:11) For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God (our Heavenly Father).

(Php 2:11) And that every tongue should confess that YaHshua the Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

(Mat 10:32) Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

(Rom 10:9) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Yahshua, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

   What a statement, what a powerful, powerful statement -- you can't just think it, you must be willing to confess His Name with your mouth, confess YaHshua is Lord.  This is a perfect example, destroying the concept that it is "what's in your heart that counts".  Certainly what is in you heart must be there before you speak, but to think that is all is a mistake, you must be willing to say, "YaHshua is my Savior" -- raised from the dead by my Heavenly Father just as He will raise me from the dead -- this I confess by my mouth, from my mind, and in writing -- HalleluYaH!

JESUS is NOT HIS NAME
