If the antichrist was real, which public figure is most likely to be the spawn of Satan?

    The Bible says there are many antichrists.

    An antichrist is someone who simply disavows the work of Jesus, someone who rejects God and gets other people to follow them.

    In that sense, we could easily list many of the famous billionaires as Antichrists.

    But I think in this specific situation you’re not talking about antichrist lowercase, you’re talking about the big cheese, the head honcho.

    The Son of Perdition.

    And I would say that among the things that have happened right now, the front runner would be Trump.

    The guy was born into wealth and power. He has had everything his entire life handed to him on a golden platter, and he’s the most miserable pile of human excrement that has existed in this generation.

    He literally does nothing but hate.

    I’m sure that there are others that fit the bill. Putin is pretty high up there. Musk is pretty high up there.

    But if you put a gun to my head and said I had to guess, I would guess Trump.

    Many of my fellow Christians in America have warned me over the years of exactly that, often telling me: “I feel sorry for you, because when the Antichrist comes you’re not even going to recognize him!”

    To honor those who have given me such warning, I decided to spend the past week studying the most significant biblical prophecies and descriptions typically believed by my conservative friends to refer the Antichrist. If my evangelical friends are correct, and if it’s entirely possible that the Antichrist is on the global scene today, I certainly wouldn’t want to be the only person in the room who didn’t recognize the Antichrist when I saw him.

    In case you too are a bit rusty in the area of biblical predictions about the coming Antichrist and don’t want to be oblivious if such a person were to arise, consider me your chief antichristologist who is more than happy to help you out.
