I'm beyond your primitive understanding of prophecy. I have heard all the skeptical and false arguments from those of your ilk before.Israel was not a self governed Nation under Nero and does not qualify as The AntiChrist. Israel was a province of The Roman Empire under occupation. Israel after The Diaspora in 70 AD fulfilled Ezekiel's Dry Bones Prophecy in 1948 when they were regathered and "Born Again" as a nation. In 1966 the gained possession of Jerusalem, and just recently Nations began recognizing Jerusalem as it's capital.Sorry, but Nero did not force the entire world to accept a mark as the only way to buy or sell, and neither did Nero make an image of himself and breath life in to it and make it speak and force people to worship it. Nero did not perform Satanic miracles such as call fire down from the skies, nor have the entire world worship him, and neither did Nero have a False Prophet going around the world and validated Nero as The False Messiah or AntiChrist.616 or some such number but the christians mistranslated way back when and think 666 is a sign of evil. It's funny if you think about it.Can someone out there explain, what is the Mark of the Beast? Your thoughts.
666 signifies Nero.. and he was pretty evil..
None of those things can happen until Israel was regathered in to their homeland after the diaspora which occurred in 70AD, and none of that can happen until Jerusalem is declared as Israel's capital again and in their possession.
Maybe you should start reading God's Word instead of the ramblings of a Caravan Thief, a Heroin Dealer and Child Molester.
Just the Roman Empire NOT the world. Your theology is based on Scofield and Hal Lindsey.. Are you a Baptist, fundamentalist or evangelical?
Nero was not The AntiChrist and neither was Antiochus Epiphanes.
They were a type of antichrists, of which The Bible said there would be many. But there is only one Final AntiChrist the rules in The End Times and who will fulfill all prophesies spoken about Him in Daniel, Revelations, and elsewhere in the gospels and prophets.
People were also not moving to and fro at a rapid pace, and knowledge was also not increased in that day like it is today. We do not have massive delusions and deceptions such as The Russian Collusion Hoax, or Scamdemic like we do today.
Your failure to recognize and understand prophecy and your rejection of Yeshua as Messiah will end up in your falling prey to lies and deceptions and most assuredly you will bow before and worship The AntiChrist to come because you do not love truth, and therefore God will send you strong delusion so you will not be able to repent in that day, and you will believe AntiChrist is your Messiah.
But He will be destroyed by a single word from Christ on The Day of Armageddon, and He, The False Prophet and all who believe in AntiChrists will be cast in to Hell along with Satan and his fallen Angels.
Make sure that you don't have to join the sorry lot.
Ezekiel was talking about Israel being restored in dry bones. They were exiled in Babylon at the time.
Jesus referenced Antiochus IV when he told his followers to flee to the mountains and avoid the tribulation.
Your "theology" only dates to the early 19th century.
FUTURISM AND DISPENSATIONALISM
The Christian eschatology of futurism is popular among many protestant denominations and non-denominational institutions.christianeschatology.com
FUTURISM AND DISPENSATIONALISM
The eschatology of Futurism is largely credited to the early-mid 19th century interpretation of John Nelson Darby, widely recognized as " the father of modern Dispensationalism and Futurism", whose eschatological scheme was popularized in the 20th century …
If Nero was The AntiChrist, or it was Antiochus Epiphanes, then answer these questions:
1.) Messiah, Yeshua is not sitting in Jerusalem ruling with an Iron Rod as The Prince of Peace and we are not in The Millennium Reign, so where is His Glorious Appearing since that follows immediately after The Reign of AntiChrist and The Tribulation or Time of Jacob's Trouble?
2.) The Prophecies state that during the reign of AntiChrist, there will be great natural disasters and other phenomena that are so severe The Earth and it's inhabitants have never seen such disasters and never will again. This never happened under Antiochus or Nero, so where are these signs?
3.) The Prophecies state that Christ will first come for His Church and join believers in Heaven with resurrected and purified and renewed bodies, as well as take up those who are alive in Christ up in to Heaven to escape the coming wrath of God, and the reign of AntiChrist and the 7 Year Tribulation, so where is The Resurrection, The Rapture, and the Groom coming for His Bride, The Church that is prophesied to occur BEFORE The Reign of AntiChrist?
4.) During The Reign of AntiChrist, there are 21 Judgements poured out on AntiChrist's Kingdom, and an unbelieving rebellious world giving mankind one last time to repent and accept the gift of Salvation. Reference question # 2. Where are these 21 curses? Is the sea turning to blood? Has the meteorite "Wormwood" hit Earth yet and poisoned all our waters? Has 1/3rd of all ships been sunk? Has 1/4 of all plant life been burned up? Have men and women who have taken The Mark of The Beast broken out in grievous and painful sores all over The Earth that they cry out for Death, curse God instead?
5.) Where are the 4 horseman of The Apocalypse that dominate the planet? The AntiChrist' False Peace, War, Famine, Pestilence and Death which kill approximately 75% of Earth's population?
