Satan’s Greatest End Time Deception Video Transcript

The wicked will worship the Antichrist as if he was a god. Why will the world worship him?

The reason is that the Antichrist will be raised from the dead according to Revelation 17. The language in verses 8-11 tell us that he will be a leader who previously reigned who died, will live again, but is not truly resurrected like Christ. He will face destruction when Christ returns to reign over the earth:

"(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)

The Antichrist will not truly be resurrected, but the wicked will worship him like his is. This will be Satan’s greatest end time deception.
