An Easter End Time Deception? Video Transcript
Revelation 17 indicates that the Antichrist will be raised from the dead and people will worship him like he has been resurrected from the dead:
"(8) The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. (9) And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. (10) And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. (11) And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition." (Revelation 17:8-11)
2 Thessalonians 2 indicates the Antichrist will start to demand the worship of the world when he is in the temple of God and claiming to be God at the midpoint of the Tribulation:
"(3) Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; (4) Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God." (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4)
Interestingly, there are certain years when the midpoint of the Tribulation will fall on Easter or otherwise known as resurrection Sunday.
It is quite possible that Satan will try to mimic Christ by having the Antichrist deceive the world into thinking he’s been resurrected from the dead on the day Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
