    The stories in the bible happened long ago. There arent any prophecies reaching into our age.

      (Actual inquiry, I don’t know): Really? There is no rupture or some sort of apocalyse in the new testament?

        That’s what the heritage Foundation is trying to achieve, yes. Trump is playing the part of the antichrist, musk is the beast. I’m mostly concerned about how they interpret “lake of fire”.

        Nah, the thing that Christians claim is the antichrist was the description of Nero.

          As someone that doesn’t belive in the bible, the whole antichrist being nero thing doesn’t add up. Nero reigned from 54 AD to 68 AD while the book of revelation, the one with the antichrist prophecies and that was published in 95 AD. I’ve heard the explanation that it was code, but why would they have to have code for someone that died 27 years before they wrote the code?

            The word antichrist isnt meantioned in the bible, only John does mention it.

              The gnostic nag hamadi also mentions the antichrist and that was written at least the 2nd century. Interestingly they say the antichrist will have a female likeness which makes sense if you entertain it because if the antichrist is meant to be the complete opposite of christ, why wouldn’t they identify as female?
