Your question has a built in common error. You are referring to the person as the Antichrist as a blanket term... which is an error.

Your question, as phrased, is like saying where does it say in the constitution that President Barak Obama will be made President of the United States.

It is built into the term Antichrist that the person becomes the King of Israel, instead of and against the true King of Israel Jesus who came in the name of the Lord.

So basically it isn't found in the bible that the person we are talking about will become elected King of Israel. Even Christ wasn't king of Israel and when asked, he said his kingdom was not of this world so he is king of heaven not of Israel.

Thus, there is nothing about the word Antichrist that proves he will be made king of Israel.

Instead of saying AC, you should be saying "the person".


That person is known by MANY names but the most commonly used by people is AC so I will continue to use that as the main name/term.

I think it more correct to be many "titles".

"name" is a common noun. The person's actual name such as Bob, Joe, etc is a proper noun.

difference between common nouns and proper nouns - Bing

Even though I refer to him as "the" person generically, a more exact way would be to say "that" person - taking from
2Thessalonians2:8

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

It is not "elected" King of Israel. That person will be "anointed" the King of Israel by the false prophet.

The Jews (Judaism) are looking for Elijah the prophet to come in conjunction with the messianic age.

The Jews also maintain the messiah will be anointed the King of Israel by a known prophet. They base their belief on the the only kings of united Israel were anointed by known prophets. i.e. Saul and David by the prophet Samuel. And Solomon by the prophet Nathan.

___________________________________________________________

Jesus is the King of Israel who came in the name of the Lord. And is the rightful King of Israel. Before
Israel demanded a human king - God was their King.

12 And when ye saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you, ye said unto me, Nay; but a king shall reign over us: when the LORD your God was your king.

Douggish nonsense.
That person will take control of the One World Govt. Revelation 13:1-8, Daniel 7:23-25
Jewish Israel will be gone, but the new nation in all of the holy Land will elect their own leader. Hosea 1:11, Jeremiah 30:21

no prophecy is of any private interpretation and your speculation is like many others that have come and gone before it a private interpretation that makes a little sense that will fail. All these prophecies in Daniel and Revelation talk about the events leading up to the 2nd coming. In Rev the beast is given 42 months. In Dan 12 from the abomination of desolation we are told 1290 days to go. Now the term a time times and half a time occurs also in Dan 7 and again it is in reference to the coming of the kingdom and a pompous guy is raised up who will persecute for that length of time and he is destroyed and given to the flame when the kingdom comes. This is exactly what happens to the beast who is also persecuting for 42 months then the kingdom comes. Now in Dan 9 the 70 weeks talks about the sacrifice being taken away in the middle of the week so if the week is 7 years the middle would be with 42 months to go. This view can be extracted from the scripture without being a private interpretation.

In Dan 9 we find that apocalyptic timelines use day-for-year. So 70 weeks is 490 days... so then 490 solar years.

That means the 1260 days of Dan 7, Rev 11, Rev 12, Rev 13 are in fact 1260 years.

And the 2300 days of Dan 8 - are 2300 years.

Hi the 70 weeks is a day for a year so when you get to the middle of the week if we are talking about 360 day Babylonian years 3 1/2 years is 1260 days. Rev 13 calls it 42 months of power and the same guy who survives the mortal wound is destroyed by the brightness of the coming of the LORD. The two witnesses are dead for 3 days and all of the the events do not have any support in taking place over a long period as you suggest but they seem to break the down the middle of the week that is correctly deduced at 7 days 7 years and this 70th week is now broken in months and days and your conclusion can not disprove this concept. The middle of the week is supposed to be for the prince who shall come to put an end to the daily sacrifice. this again is talking about the middle of a 7 year period which is already agreed to be a year a day in Daniel's 70 weeks.

My Lord JESUS said: John 12:47-48

47 ...I came not to Judge the world, but to save the world.
48 ... hath one that Judgeth him: the Word that I have spoken, the same shall Judge him IN THE LAST DAY. --> that is the seventh and last Day, or seventh and last millennium. --> This Day/Millennium just arrived, and also The Judgment Seat of Christ.
My Lord JESUS make it very clear, saying:

36 Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT.

37 For by thy words thou shalt be Justified, and by thy words thou shalt be Condemned.

Be careful or else get ready

Romans 2:9-11
9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; --> to twist the Word of GOD is exceedingly evil. --> The Word is GOD, GOD Himself, self-executing.

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11 For there is no respect of persons with GOD.
