When speaking of the coming anti-Christ, the Bible makes it clear that this person will be accepted by both Christians and Jews as the legitimate Messiah of Israel.
If that’s the case, what ethnicity would they be expecting him to be?
Of course, Jewish, right?
Think about it.
What Jew, regardless of how Orthodox or not his background is, would accept anyone but another Jew as their Messiah?
Even the gentile Christian Church can’t deny that Jesus was a Jew, and that when he returns, he’ll be returning as a Jew.
And consider the pattern I pointed out yesterday about Absalom being a prototype for the anti-Messiah.
If that pattern is correct, then that means the anti-Christ will hail from the same family as the anointed king.
They will both be Jewish or coming from the tribe of Judah.
Does that sound implausible?
Well, let me reframe the question from the opposite angle.
Who in their right mind would accept the appearance or reappearance of the Messiah as anything but a Jew?
Whether gentile or Jew, no one would accept a Gentile Messiah.
Why?
By scriptural definition, such a creature doesn’t exist.
So it stands to reason that those folks who accept the Anti-Christ will be expecting a person of Jewish ethnicity.
Ya feel me here?
Now, when I say a Jewish person, I ain’t necessarily talking about some hardcore religious or Orthodox Jew like a Rabbi or something.
I’m thinking about someone more along the lines of Norman Finkelstein.
He is a political scientist and the son of Holocaust survivors.
He is also deeply critical of Israeli policies and the exploitation of Holocaust memory to justify actions against Palestinians.
So I believe the anti-Christ could very well be a Jew who preaches world peace, but stands staunchly against Israel and Zionism.
And also someone who is very pro-Palestinian in their rhetoric.
There are quite a few politicians who fit that bill.
Their ancestors may be of the tribe of Judah, but they are no friend of the Jewish people.
Bernie Sanders, Senator John Kerry, and Nicolas Sarkozy (former president of France) immediately come to mind.
In some cases, these politicians hide the fact they’re Jewish unless it is to their advantage not to.
So here’s the takeaway.
The world isn’t waiting for just any savior.
They’re waiting for a Jewish one, whether they admit it or not.
And when someone shows up who fits the bill ethnically, talks peace, trashes Israel, and charms both Jews and Gentiles alike?
Don’t be fooled.
Because the closer he looks like the real thing, the more dangerous he is.
Remember, Absalom wasn’t a foreigner.
He was family.
And that’s what made him so convincing.
Let that sink in.
You are walking into a trap and misleading others into the same pit you’re already in. You need serious counseling out of the darkness you’ve fallen into. Pretending to be a sub-prophet is standing on dangerous grounds. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge and wisdom!
ARE YOU FEELING ME?
Anytime you feel you would like to talk face to face, I have a zoom number.
I’m not a prophet, or sub-prophet, and have never claimed to be one.
Be cool, bro.
If you can’t understand what I’m saying, then I feel you are the one on dangerous ground.
“Many peoples will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.”-Isaiah 2:3
