Biblical evidence Islam is the beast
The single most relevant issue to address is, "what religion will the false prophet come from?" The biblical evidence all points to Islam. Here's a little evidence for you to consider about Islam and not all of it!
Captive silly women," have ISLAM written all over it.

2 Timothy 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

The word 'silly' is better interpreted 'little.' Little in the sense of being insignificant. After all, Mid-East Muslims value their cattle more than their women and consider them as 'farmland'. Muslim women have been held captive to the oppressive religion of Islam since its inception.

Sura 33:50-51 "O prophet! We have made lawful to thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowers; and those whom thy right hand possesses out of the prisoners of war whom Allah has assigned to thee this only for thee, and not for believers [at large]; we know what we have appointed for them as to their wives and the captives whom their right hand possess; in order that there should be no difficulty for thee. And God is oft-forgiving, most merciful.

The rest of 2 Tim. 3 has Islam written all over it, not to mention ISIS runs the largest prostitution ring in the world.
The number of the verses in the Koran according to the scholars:
Ibn-i Abbas (ra): 6616,
Nafi (ra): 6217,
Shayba (ra): 6214,
Scholars of Egypt (ra): 6226,
Zamahshari (ra)
(the genius Eloquence Scholar of the Arabic language and literature);
6666.
Bediuzzaman, mujaddid (the reformer) of the13.century, also has the opinion of
6666 verses.

The right hand and forehead happen to have religious significance in Islam. But most people wouldn't know that, they're too busy looking at the pope's funny hat.

A Muslim's method of worship and goal of world domination through jihad and demographics is also perfectly describe in ONE VERSE in Habakkuk.
Habakkuk says God would raise up the Babylonians in the last days. Not the Romans.
"They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand."
They shall come all for violence: (Islamic terrorism)
their faces shall sup up as the east wind, (Muslim method of worship)

"The east wind is always associated with evil destructive wind." E. Swedenborg (1688-1772) said, "That wind, and especially the east wind, signifies nothing else than the dispersion of falsities and evils.

and they shall gather the captivity as the sand. (World domination)Islam has captivated about 1.7 billion followers.

There's an anti-Christ monument that 'sits upon' God's Holy Place called the Dome of the Rock. Around the octagonal structure of the Dome of the Rock is a long classical Arabic inscription that says that God has no begotten son, thus denying that Jesus is the Son of God.

They say,
There is no God but Allah.
God has no son; He begetteth not.
God taketh not unto Himself a son.
God has no associate.
Muhammad is the messenger of God.
Allah will preside on Judgment Day.

"Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son."

Ever see the images that developed over time in the marble of the entrance to the Dome? DEMONS!

Images-on-Dome-of-Rock (1).jpg


We believe that Jesus Christ takes away our sins and is the Rock of Ages and the chief cornerstone of the Churches foundation. Did you know that Muslim's bow toward a black rock in Mecca 5 times a day and believe it takes away their sins. This black rock is the 'cornerstone' of the Kaaba, and notice the two horns symbolic of the Sunni and Shia sects of Islam.

We put crosses on top of Churches. Islam has a star and crescent moon that looks like two horns. Allah is also known as a moon god in Arabic mythology.

Revelation 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, (Shia and Sunni sects of Islam) and he spake as a dragon. (Morning star crescent moon) The two horned beast is symbolic of Islam and called Babylon the Great.

We believe Jesus is the "prophet lie unto Moses." Muslims believe that would be the false prophet Muhammad.

The name Lucifer in Hebrew is Heylel. It comes from the word 'halal' and it means, "The Morning Star."

1966 heylel hay-lale' from 1984 (in the sense of brightness); the morning-star:\endash Lucifer.

Hilal in Arabis means
Web definition
Hil?l (????) is an Arabic word that means "crescent" or "new moon." It's an Islamic symbol!

Heylal, Halal ,and Hilal means\ Lucifer\ aka Satan\ aka the devil\ and in Christian literature actually means The Morning Star and Crescent Moon

The locust of Rev. 9 has long been associated with Muslims. That's where suicide bombers are found.

Revelation 9:16-17 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

Revelation 9 has long been associated with the Arabs and Muslims for several reasons. Locust are figurative of the Arabs in the Old Testament. Both the scorpions and locust have the Mid-East as their natural habitat, especially in Arabia. In Arabic the word "Arab" and "locust" sound similar.

"That Great City" of Revelation 17 is East Jerusalem. The harlot, whose cup is filled with the Islamic abominations of the earth, and bent on "domination by abomination," sits upon or "OCCUPIES" the Temple Mount. This 7 headed ten horned beast represents the Dome area being occupied by Islam and the Headquarters of an Islamic Caliphate, turning East Jerusalem into a figurative harlot. That area will authenticate the man of sin and false prophet.

"That Great City" of Revelation 18 is Mecca and the oil rich Arab world, it's palaces and Shrines/ mosque. etc.. If you read Revelation 18, you'll see that Islam and the Arab world is written all over it. Verse 13 may even imply Islam will be banned by countries who previously traded with the region. Mecca may be prophesied for destruction.
Revelation 10 all about the Koran.

Revelation 11 all about the Temple Mount area which is occupied by Islam, and the two witnesses preaching to Muslim's to "get out of Islam."
Revelation 15 is about people, esp. Muslims, who got out of Islam, and the seven last plagues. The sea of glass is figurative of Muslim's who have seen the light who now see and understood the truth. The vials are God's vengeance upon Islam and His last attempt to get Muslims out of Islam.

And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

Beheading is an Islamic tradition and an atrocity committed by the beast mentioned in Revelation 20:4.

ISIS/ISIL is the Leviathan of Isaiah 24 and Job 41. This is what it says about ISIL, and this is what we know about ISIL.

Job 41:25 says about Leviathan

"When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves".

Why are the mighty afraid?
The mighty are afraid because jihadist hide among the general population. They aren't coming at you with brigades of people and equipment. They are spread across the earth and mixed in the general population. Jihadist of all kinds believe it's God's will for them to participate in jihad. Islam teaches that if a man does not participate in jihad, he is liable to lose his reward in paradise and is a hypocrite.
Job 41:25 says about Leviathan

"When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves".

"by reason of breakings they purify themselves."

The second part of verse 25 is really strange and perfectly describes a Muslim's 'struggle' in jihad

The word no doubt implies terrorism. It means to break and ruin, and comes from a word meaning "to break, wreck, and to rend violence."

Jihad is the Arabic word for "struggle" or "effort." In the context of the Holy Qur'an, jihad is a struggle or effort to strive "in the path of God" (22:78). Scholar James Turner Johnson says it this way: "the concept of jihad fundamentally denotes striving or effort expended by the individual Muslim to walk in the path of God" (Johnson 19; Feldman 232-233) Jihad is the effort to purify oneself from within, to purify oneself of selfish appetites\endash the intention behind the action is important to the action itself. If this is the root meaning of jihad, when and how did it come to mean "holy war" or a "war to kill the infidels"? To answer that, we need to look at jihad in the Qur'an and the term's historical development."

Neither the first beast, nor the second beast of Revelation are muslims.

The second beast in Revelation 13:11 will perform miracles. One of the miracles is calling fire down from heaven, Revelation 13:13. That is an indication that the Jews will initially think that the second beast (latter referred to as the false prophet) will be the embodiment of Elijah.

Elijah, in the old testament, in his confrontation with the prophets of baal, called down fire from heaven to cause a stack of wood to catch on fire.

The Jews (Judaism) anticipate Elijah to come and be a part of the start up of the messianic age. The Jews set a plate for Elijah at their annual Passover meal celebration, to amplify their expectation of Elijah's coming.

The Jews (Judaism) also believe the messiah will be anointed the King of Israel by a "known" prophet - pointing toward Elijah.

So the false prophet, initially perceived to be the embodiment of Elijah by the Jews, will anoint the Antichrist person as the King of Israel, thought-to-be messiah by the Jews... for a while. Until he reveals himself to be the man of sin and not the messiah after all.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The significance of Islam in the end times is that Islam will be the common unifying factor in the nations making up the Gog/Magog attack on Israel, other that Russia.

The destruction of the Gog/Magog armies will basically end Islam as a major religion as Allah falls to the God of Israel.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Following the Gog/Magog event, the dome of rock and the al asqa mosque will be remove from the temple mount by the Jews and another Jewish temple will be built on the temple mount - which the Antichrist will eventually go into, sit, claim to be God.

Maybe you'd be better off on a Preterist forum.
No, I am a futurist.

The Antichrist must be a Jew, not a muslim.

To understand the function of the Antichrist, it is necessary to understand the concept of "Christ' as being the promised King of Israel messiah.

Here in Mark 15:32, the jewish religious leaders mocked Jesus when he was suffering on the cross.

Mark 15:
31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

The prefix "anti" mean against or instead of ....... or both against and instead of.

The Antichrist will be both - against Jesus and instead of Jesus - Jesus the true and rightful King of Israel messiah.

The first beast in Revelation 13 will be worshiped as directed by the second beast of Revelation 13.

In Islam, Muslims are forbidden to worship men as gods. So the beasts, neither of them would fit the Muslim religious beliefs.

This is interesting. When do you think this will start. It seems Islam has been buildin for some time. Perhaps a confrontation is emerging which may finally defeat Islam in the not too distant future. At least its head such as Iran which is experiencing a rising revolution.

Perhaps not before they launch a final attack on Isreal. What is left of the Islamists.

But it seems the climate is building to some confrontation.

Are the Jews now speaking of a coming Messiah ? Are their prophesies aligning with current world events ?

I think that the Gog/Magog attack on Israel will be some time before the end of 2030.

Many Christians, including myself, think Russia is the major power coming from the north (Ezekiel 39:2). Right now Russia is engaged in a war with Ukraine.

In Ezekiel 38:4, speaking about Gog, it says God will turn Gog back. So what I think is that when Russia attempts to withdraw its troop back to Russia from the Ukraine war, that is when God will "turn Gog back" to be drawn into what will be the Gog/Magog attack on Israel.

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

Its not necessarily any particular power or combinations of powers who will attack Isreal. Its that the climate for that attack has been cultivated. Almost inevitable.

There has been a cycle of violence and terror and it has been escalating. Each tit for tat is making things worse and as with all evil it gets bigger and worse. It seems the trend has been towards buildinng to something big. A big showdown. Evil has been backed into a corner and will find a way to try and win.
In Ezekiel 38:4, speaking about Gog, it says God will turn Gog back. So what I think is that when Russia attempts to withdraw its troop back to Russia from the Ukraine war, that is when God will "turn Gog back" to be drawn into what will be the Gog/Magog attack on Israel.
Yeah I think Russia is sort of allied with anything that is anti western. I think already they have fingers in many illegal activities around western nations. Like China. Getting as close as possible and utilising criminal and terrorist networks.

They all operate under the radar and don't care about morals. Just to further their cause against the west or Christians or Jews whatever the case.
So it would not surprise me if Russia is already in bed with those who are against Isreal.

I wonder if this Greenland situation may be another cavet. They say Russia is interested in Greenland or at least concerned about the US having control. Greenland is sort of up in that region and in the middle. This may create opposing allies and who knows how this pans out as to world order.
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

That sounds like the armies of Islam. They like the idea of riding horses with swords as they cut the heads off their enermies. Though nowadays they like to use gliders.

Who knows. But there seems to be several dark forces rising. Russia is one, China another, Islam and the EU and then the US and its allies. Not sure about Britain. They have gone weird. Were allies of Australia and the US. Hate the EU. But now they are a mess.

The Arabs today are among the descendants of Ishmael, the
son of Abraham and Hagar whom God prophesied would be
a “wild man; his hand will be against every man,
and every man’s hand against him …” (Genesis 16:12).

This describes the history and current events regarding the Arab
people and their interactions with other people and nations.

Iran has appointed itself kingpin of radical Islamism.

The Beast that rises out of the sea whose human name has the numerical value of six hundred and sixty-six is specifically said to be a human being.

It was Nero.
After Nero suffered a self-inflicted mortal wound (stabbing himself in the throat), rumors and gossip soon emerged that Nero hadn't really died, but that he went into hiding and would return; others thought perhaps Nero had died but that he would come back from the dead to finish what he started.

These rumors and conspiracy theories were all over the Roman world. Roman historians like Tacitus talk about this.

About this time Achaia and Asia Minor were terrified by a false report that Nero was at hand. Various rumours were current about his death; and so there were many who pretended and believed that he was still alive. The adventures and enterprises of the other pretenders I shall relate in the regular course of my work. The pretender in this case was a slave from Pontus, or, according to some accounts, a freedman from Italy, a skilful harp-player and singer, accomplishments, which, added to a resemblance in the face, gave a very deceptive plausibility to his pretensions. After attaching to himself some deserters, needy vagrants whom he bribed with great offers, he put to sea. Driven by stress of weather to the island of Cythnus, he induced certain soldiers, who were on their way from the East, to join him, and ordered others, who refused, to be executed. He also robbed the traders and armed all the most able bodied of the slaves. The centurion Sisenna, who was the bearer of the clasped right hands, the usual emblems of friendship, from the armies of Syria to the Praetorians, was assailed by him with various artifices, till he left the island secretly, and, fearing actual violence, made his escape with all haste. Thence the alarm spread far and wide, and many roused themselves at the well-known name, eager for change, and detesting the present state of things. The report was daily gaining credit when an accident put an end to it. (Tacitus, Histories, Book II)

There were several pretenders who claimed to be Nero, and while they all failed in some way, they actually garnered a lot of followers--and these reports only continued to foster rumors and fears.

While most people hated Nero, he was reviled, and after news of his death became public the people of Rome literally went out into the street to celebrate his death. That's how detestable he was.

But for Christians, in particular, Nero wasn't just a tyrant. He was a symbol of persecution, of imperial power which bore all the world's violence against the Church in the most grotesque manner imaginable.

Therefore, to scotch the rumour, Nero substituted as culprits, and punished with the utmost refinements of cruelty, a class of men, loathed for their vices, whom the crowd styled Christians. Christus, the founder of the name, had undergone the death penalty in the reign of Tiberius, by sentence of the procurator Pontius Pilatus, and the pernicious superstition was checked for a moment, only to break out once more, not merely in Judaea, the home of the disease, but in the capital itself, where all things horrible or shameful in the world collect and find a vogue. First, then, the confessed members of the sect were arrested; next, on their disclosures, vast numbers⁠ were convicted, not so much on the count of arson as for hatred of the human race. And derision accompanied their end: they were covered with wild beasts' skins and torn to death by dogs; or they were fastened on crosses, and, when daylight failed were burned to serve as lamps by night. Nero had offered his Gardens for the spectacle, and gave an exhibition in his Circus, mixing with the crowd in the habit of a charioteer, or mounted on his car. Hence, in spite of a guilt which had earned the most exemplary punishment, there arose a sentiment of pity, due to the impression that they were being sacrificed not for the welfare of the state but to the ferocity of a single man. (Tacitus, Annals, 15.44)

Here is what Eusebius tells us about the time when St. John wrote the Revelation:

Domitian, having shown great cruelty toward many, and having unjustly put to death no small number of well-born and notable men at Rome, and having without cause exiled and confiscated the property of a great many other illustrious men, finally became a successor of Nero in his hatred and enmity toward God. He was in fact the second that stirred up a persecution against us, although his father Vespasian had undertaken nothing prejudicial to us.

It is said that in this persecution the apostle and evangelist John, who was still alive, was condemned to dwell on the island of Patmos in consequence of his testimony to the divine word. Irenæus, in the fifth book of his work Against Heresies, where he discusses the number of the name of Antichrist which is given in the so-called Apocalypse of John, speaks as follows concerning him: If it were necessary for his name to be proclaimed openly at the present time, it would have been declared by him who saw the revelation. For it was seen not long ago, but almost in our own generation, at the end of the reign of Domitian. To such a degree, indeed, did the teaching of our faith flourish at that time that even those writers who were far from our religion did not hesitate to mention in their histories the persecution and the martyrdoms which took place during it. And they, indeed, accurately indicated the time. For they recorded that in the fifteenth year of Domitian Flavia Domitilla, daughter of a sister of Flavius Clement, who at that time was one of the consuls of Rome, was exiled with many others to the island of Pontia in consequence of testimony borne to Christ. (Eusebius of Caesarea, History of the Church, Book III, 17-18)

The Beast which St. John beholds in the vision is a clear reference to Nero, and the fear of Nero's return in a later emperor. Domitian, Eusebius tells us, rekindled the oppression against Christians. And that is a pattern that would continue, under emperors like Trajan who succeeded Domitian. But the worst of it would happen in the late 3rd century under the reign of Diocletian.

The Beast isn't Islam, the Beast is first and foremost Nero. But it's clear that this beast language is employed to describe Roman imperial power, where the city of Rome is described as a harlot that rides upon a beast colored the imperial crimson, she is called Babylon and is drunk on the blood of Christian martyrs.
So this is talking about something two thousand years ago in the past. Not the future. And it's not a religion, a system, an idea, a microchip, a technology. It was a literal human being who was already dead when John wrote the Revelation, but whose name and memory were still a scourge, a living memory of horrors perpetrated against the Church--horrors which didn't die, but would continue.

Because the point of the Revelation isn't about the horrors of the first century, or the horrors of future centuries. The point of the Revelation is that in spite of what we see in this fallen, broken, sinful world. In spite of the devil's rage, in spite of the way the nations conspire against the Church, in spite of all the evils of this age: Christ has already won the victory, He is risen. And He will return, and every knee will bow, for in the end all things belong to God, He will make all things new, He will wipe away every tear from our eyes. So that ever suffering will become a hymn of praise, and every mourning into joyful celebration as we offer Hallelujahs forever and ever in the presence of God in His redeemed and healed world.

Jesus Christ is Lord. Not these tyrants that think they are. Jesus Christ is Lord, not the devil who roars like a dragon but is nothing but a pathetic little snake crushed under the foot of Jesus Christ.

Hell is broken.
Sin is forgiven.
Death is defeated.
Christ is Risen.
