Islam and the Great Tribulation Period

[Guest Coral Snake]

As most of you probably know I have been promoting the idea that Islam will be the religion that brings about the Anitchrist. I would like to expound on this further with this thread.

Let's start with the basics here that we all know about and see how well Islam measures up to them

1. The mark of the beast:

Revelation 13:16

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

Revelation 13:17

And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Muslems pray by placing their FOREHEADS on their prayer rug every time they say their repetitive prayers. This ritual must be done five times a day. This can lead to the development of recognizable callouses on the forehead after years of practice. Also under strict Islamic law private stores and businesses WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED!! All business under strict Islamic law should be condicted in Bizars and other highly centralized marketplaces with gold and silver coins bearing the symbols of Islam. The gold coin is called a Dinar and this is where Islamic countries get the name Dinar for their paper money. Furthermore in Islam eating and monitary payment is always done with THE RIGHT HAND which is considered the "clean" hand in the religion. (This is why the RIGHT HAND of thieves is cut off under Islamic law, not only to be violent but also to humiliate a person by forcing him to use his "unclean" left hand for these functions as well as the "unclean" functions.) This centralized system of doing business is more conductive to guarding it against participation ONLY bu those who have the proper "prayer callouses" or other sign of the Muslem prayer practice on their foreheads. Therefore with Islam producing the Antichrist there is no need for computer implants

or other other exotic "marks of the beast". The mark of the beast has existed in this religion FROM ITS BEGINNING in the form of its forehead involved method of prayer and its veneration of the right hand for monetary paument and feeding. However these Muslem doctrines involving the right hand and the forehead will become the UNFORGIVABLE SIN of the mark of the beast only during the Tribulation Period after the three angels of Revelation 14 preach their warning about them. We still can and should try to win Muslem souls.

Executions by Beheading:

Revelation 20:4

And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

We are already starting to see this in Iraq with the hostages that the terrorists there. Expect to see more of it as Islam progressively takes over Europe and destroys the current "mystery babylon" religions there "Secularism, RCC, Liberal Protestentism". I believe that this method of execution is used by the Muslems again because of the importance of the forehead in their religion even though you probably would not get one to admit this.

False second coming of "Jesus":

Revelation 13:11

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

Revelation 13:12

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

Islam believes in their version of "end times" prophesy that "Jesus" will return to earth as a prophet to convert the world to ISLAM and NOT as King of Kings and Lord of Lords, that position will be STOLEN by another newcomer to the Islamic prophetic scene the "Imam Madhi". I see the fake "Jesus" as the False Prophet (second beast) and the "Imam Madhi" to be the Revived First Beast (the Antichrist).

Now with these basics in mind let's look at the end times picture with Islam bringing about the Tribulation and with a Post Trib/Pre Wrath Rapture. (This is my belief relating to the Rapture.)

Event 1:

Europe increaslingly Islamicises, "Mystery Babylon" destroyed because of this and its members (many who ARE true Christians) beheaded.

Event 2:

All religion but Islam banned in Europe. Members of other religions beheaded if they don't convert.

Event 3:

Europe, the Middle East and Africa placed under strict Islamic ECONOMIC Law. Centralized bizarrs and marketplaces replace private shops. The gold Dinar and its gold and silver Islamic symboled counterparts become the ONLY legal medium of exchange. Proof of Muslem forehead involved prayer practice REQUIRED in order to participate in these centralized markets.

Event 4:

Fake "Jesus" comes telling the world that ISLAM is the only true expression of Judaism and Christianity. Also begins the negotiations to replace the Dome of the Rock with a new Jewish style temple.

Event 5:

The "Imam Madhi" comes. concludes Temple replacement negotiations. Two thirds of Israeli Jews accept him as their messiah. (The "Imam Madhi" will be a Jew converted to Islam by the Fake "Jesus" who will later become possessed of Satan to get his "Imam Madhi" authority.)

Event 6:

Islam will NOT take over the whole world. There will be massive nationwide civil wars in The Americas, Austraila, China and Russia that have a lot of casualties and Iraq style beheadings but Islam will NOT become the full government of these regions. Humanists/Communists will continue to hold sway in China Russia and the other Oriental countries. The Americas and Australia will become the last strongholds of Christianity and disporia Judaism.

Event 7:

"Imam Madhi" possesed by Satan goes into the new temple and announces that he is Allah in the flesh and King of Kings and Lord of Lords. All Jews then living reject this and move toward True Christianity as a result of this blasphemy. 144,000 of them from each tribe are selected as protected witnesses of the gospel by God. These Jews will be celebates.

Event 8:

The three angels preach the gospel one more time and warn of eternal final hell for all those that continue to practice Islamic forehead and right hand related laws.

Event 9:

The Rapture. The Americas and Austraila mainly unhabited after this. Communists/Humanists agree to form One World Government to control the inhabitation of the newly unoccupied lands that the Rapture brings about with the "Imam Madhi" but secretly STILL DO NOT accept his "Allahood".

Event 10:

God's bowl plagues on the "Imam madhi's" kingdom begin the five month Wrath period.

Event 11: Aramgeddon begins, Communists/Humanists see an advantage for themselves as they ARE NOT subject to the plagues that the ISLAM is now being subjected to. Send 200,000,000 man

army to the Euphrates river which is dried up to allow their passage to Armaggedon.

Event 13: Islamic and Communist/Humanist forces start fighting each other at Armageddon. This will be the worst and LAST human battle in history.

Event 14: True Second Coming of Jesus Christ with the holy angels and the raptured saints. Jesus finishes Armageddon. Jesus and Raptured saints become the ruling class of the Mellenial Kingdom.

Surviving Islamists join the "Imam Madhi", and the false "Jesus" in final hell (The lake of fire).

Surviving Communist/Humanists and non raptured North and South Americans and Australians become the ruled class of the Mellenial kingdom.

Absolute loose interpretation. The fact that their is rampant sin during the tribulation and that the anti-christ will declare himself God negates the theory that Islam could be the new whore of Babylon...they wouldn't allow such things.

Very interesting synopsis re Islam & the Tribulation. However, Islam classifies rather as one of the false prophets (polygamist warrior-captain Muhammad of Yathrib) & one of the false religions (Jesus as prophet only, not even the greatest one, so they think) of these latter times. Islam will certainly be quite active in their onslaught against the true Faith which has the Lord Jesus Christ as Head and only Redeemer from sin.

Greetings Arthur Durnan,

Please observe that the following are conditions of the CHURCH in the LAST DAYS:

Matthew 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

2 Thessalonians 2:3 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;

2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

Revelation 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

Read these in context so as you understand.

The MAN OF SIN mentioned above IS the "false prophet". It arises from within the ORGANIZED CHURCH and leads many to their destruction by his many miracles which we see are attributed to the power of the BEAST. It is HE that leads the last days church into the Great Tribulation, the Great Apostacy of the church right into the hands of Babylon, the Harlot.

So the False Prophet is NOT OF ISLAM, but of the church.

Anecdotal to this, many years ago, the Lord revealed to me that the Organized Church would be destroyed FROM WITHIN, NOT from without. We can see this today as we watch the many false prophets arise and the wolves enter in to devour the saints with their lies.

Blessings,

Dad Ernie

Very good point Daddy Earnie. In all reality, in the tribulation (It was revealed to me today that we are in the last days and have been in the last days since Christ died and rose again) devout Jews and Christians, and militant muslims, will be the ones sought after for the anti-christ to destroy. It's impossible for the anti-christ to be Islamic...how in the world would Jews EVER accept him as the messiah?

Greetings SuperJew,

Yes, we have been in "tribulation" now for almost 2,000 years, but NOT the "great tribulation" which will be the last 3 1/2 years prior to the coming of the Lord. The prince of this world has come down to us and is seeking whom He may devour.

I must ask you to consider these verses:

Matthew 12:24-26 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. 25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: 26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?

Orthodox Judaism and Islam are both spawns of Satan. Do you think that Satan will destroy them FIRST before destroying every vistage of the Sons of God? I don't think so since he USES those to "wage war against the Saints of God.

Islam I'm willing to concede. Judaism I'm not. we know from various scriptures that Satan HATES the jews and would love to see them killed. There will be a great revival among the Jews in the great tribulation, thus I don't see Satan trying to preserve those he knows God is going to save.

I am sorry, I did not word my prior post the best way. I agree that Satan wants Israel destroyed, but for now Orthodox Judaism serves his purposes quite well and they are a "stumbling block" for all the nations because of it.

There is plenty of rampant sin within the Islamic religion to account for the sin during the tribulation. This includes the worship of a meteorite as a symbol of Allah, Adultery disguised as legal marraige (polygamy with four wives) and the idea of SEXUAL rewards in "paradise" for killing enemies which is what actually leads to their rampant TERRORISM!!!
