THE FALSE MESSIAH OF ISRAEL

Israel, and I am sure her Islamic neighbors, are tired of fighting! Israel longs for her promised Messiah, her Savior who will destroy her enemies, and establish His Kingdom, the only legitimate "one world government." The good news is, God always does what He promises (Gen. 3:15; 2 Sam. 7:12; Gal. 3:16); the bad news is, they are still waiting because when He came, they rejected Him (Mk. 15:1-27; Jn. 1:11)!

Ironically, when a false christ comes, Antichrist, Israel will accept him (Dan. 9:24-27; Jn. 5:43). To the born again believer, it is hard to understand why such an evil man would be seen as God's man. It is obvious that Israel is blinded to the truth about both God's Man, and Satan's man (Rom. 11:25; 2 Cor. 3:14; 4:4).

Jesus and Antichrist are nothing alike!
*  Jesus came in His Father's name (Jn. 5:43a vs. Jn. 5:43b).
*  Jesus came from above (Jn. 6:38 vs. Rev. 11:7).
*  Jesus was humble (Phil. 2:8 vs. 2 Thes. 2:4).
*  Jesus was despised (Lk. 23:18 vs. Rev. 13:3-4).
*  Jesus did His Father's will (Jn. 6:38 vs. Dan. 11:36).
*  Jesus came to save (Lk. 19:10 vs. Dan. 8:24).
*  Jesus is the Good Shepherd (Jn. 10:4-6 vs. Zech. 11:16-17).
*  Jesus is the Truth (Jn. 14:6 vs. 2 Thes. 2:11).
*  Jesus is the Holy One (Mk. 1:24 vs. 2 Thes. 2:8).
*  Jesus is the Son of God (Lk. 1:35 vs. 2 Thes. 2:3).
*  Jesus is called the "Mystery of Godliness" ( 1 Tim. 3:16 vs. 2 Thes. 2:7).
*  Jesus will be exalted (Phil. 2:9 vs. Rev. 19:20).

The good news is, our Christ will destroy Satan's Antichrist!

       The bad news is, He will also destroy those who follow him!
