Many Bible prophecy students and scholars have come to the realization that the Middle East, not the European Union will be the geographic location of the rise of the Antichrist.
The traditional view teaches that the Antichrist will be of Roman (European) origin based on a few prophetic passages of the Bible. Our view examines not only passages in Daniel which at first glance appear to point to the Antichrist as a Roman, but passages in other prophets like Isaiah, Ezekiel and Micah where we find titles and attributes that point to a Middle Eastern, not a Roman Antichrist.
We have decided to gather written, audio and video information produced by different prophecy authors and put them together in a single web site dedicated to show Christians and the unbelieving world how the Bible, history and current developments in the Middle East point to the fact that the Antichrist and his political kingdom will originate in the Middle East, not the European Union.
The Church for the past two Millennia has been looking and pointing others to the European Union as the fourth beast of Daniel 7 and the composite beast of Revelation 13, but as we dig deeper into the prophetic portions of the Bible, we find that the Middle East and Islam are the key to understanding the rise and dominion of the Antichrist and his political kingdom.
Click ''About Us'' on the menu above to read more about the purpose of this web site. Our desire is to provide to our readers articles, audio and video teachings and the latest political developments in the Middle East which will bring God's Prophetic Word to a much clearer understanding from a fresh and Eastern mindset perspective.
Below are the latest Middle East developments as they line up with God's prophetic word in these last days.
