Where Will We Find the Antichrist?

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

The following is compiled from a series of sermons by the late, great, Dr. Gene Scott:

“The antichrist will end up the arch enemy of the church, the arch enemy of God, the last world ruler, and his true colors will come out. But before he reveals his true colors, he’ll fool everybody in the broad church world. They’ll accept him as the answer to their problems.”

“Christ means “Deliverer”. Antichrist is “Substitute Deliverer”. One who puts himself in the place of The Christ.”

“Moses could be described as a Christ while Jesus was The Christ. There will be many antichrists. Only one will be The antichrist.”

“The antichrist will be personified in the last day, in one final evil expression. The antichrist will take his power in earthly government form. He’ll be a person and he’ll have a kingdom. He will never obtain his kingdom, rulership over the minds and hearts of men, without a false church riding on his back. A false church riding on the power of earthly government instead of the power of almighty God.”

“You can always put on the spectacles of precision and know you’re going to find an antichrist at work when government and church marry. Just write it down as an unchanging principle. The church has no more purifying work than fighting that marriage because it is the beginnings of what should be the end.”

“I stood upon the sand of the sea and saw a beast rise up out of the sea having seven heads and ten horns. Those 7 heads represent seven kingdoms that have oppressed God’s people, Israel. And ten horns, a reconstituted kingdom out of a previous kingdom and upon his head’s the name of blasphemy. The beast which I saw was like a leopard. His feet were the feet of a bear. His mouth was the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him power and his seat and great authority. So the devil gives this beast, which is a kingdom, power, seat, and authority. I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death. So one of those previous kingdoms that had oppressed Israel died. And his deadly wound was healed, coming alive again, and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshiped the dragon that gave power to the beast and they worshiped the beast saying who is like unto the beast, who is able to make war with him? There was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies. And power was given unto him to continue forty and two months (3 1/2 years). To this beast, this government, growing out of the ten heads, and he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God and blasphemed His Name. And for forty two months it was given unto him to make war with the saints and overcome them. And power was given him over all kindreds and tongues and nations, And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him who’s names are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb Slain from the foundation of the world.”

“He saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, representing the symbol of Christ but he spake as a dragon. His voice was spawned in hell. He exercises all the power of the first beast before him and causes the earth and all that dwell therein to worship the first beast whose deadly wound was healed. He does great wonders so that he makes fire come down on the earth from heaven in the sight of men. The second beast (which is the false church and the false prophet) causes all both small and great, rich and poor, free and bonded, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads’ and that no man might buy or sell save he that had the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name… it is the number of a man and his number is six hundred and three score and six, 666 is the number of a man. The spirit of the false prophet is the spirit that seeks to cause men to bow down to the beast. The spirit of (the) antichrist is the spirit that seeks to cause man to accept an earthly government and a humanistic purpose as the way to follow after and consume complete God’s purposes. You don’t have to be very smart to figure out what spirits are working. Anybody that comes along and says that an earthly government power is needed to protect the saints, that an earthly government power provides the answer, that’s a false prophet.”

“The beast will never be understood if you don’t understand that it is that evil (inhuman) prince released out of the abyss who will come forth once again in the same domain to find an earthly ruler, and give him power. From the dragon, which is Satan, will come the power of his kingdom to rule this earth. And a false church will ride upon this power for a time.”

“Who is this earthly evil prince? Where does this last ruler who will become The antichrist, come from? Where is the domain of this evil prince? Locate that domain of that evil superhuman prince and you will have place out of which or into which the earthly ruler must rise. The antichrist that the Jews will embrace to their tragic understanding of the middle of last 7 years (84 months) of their history on earth. And they will have been deceived thinking it was The Messiah, thinking that peace had come, and he’ll turn on them in the middle of the week (at 42 months, or 3 1/2 years). The prince, out of the pit, the domain of that prince, the antichrist, the earthly kingdom. That’s what we’re looking for.”

Dr. Scott concludes that the (inhuman) Prince that powers the antichrist is the Prince of Grecia who previously had been the power behind Alexander the Great. The place will be somewhere in the vicinity of present day Syria. The Prince of Grecia has been bound up in the pit since the Roman empire stamped the Grecian Empire into pieces. So if you’re looking for the antichrist, keep your eyes on Syria.
