antichrist a clone?

[rob1]

I am new here and I have a question for some of you biblical scholars.

If a person is cloned;

1. will he have a soul or will he be no more than an animal or "beast"?

2. if he is cloned from a woman will he have the sin nature? ( is the sin nature passed from father to child?)

3. if he is born without the sin nature (Jesus born of a virgin, no man involved) could he have supernatural power or would he be an easy target for satan to possess?

The antichrist is called the beast

He has power to perform signs and wonders

People will worship him as a God

What makes you think the "antichrist" is called 'the beast'?

Rev. 13 & 14

I know these are symbolic images but, if the beast here is a government only, how do you create its image and how do people worship it?

[Leonard]

First, try finding the word antichrist in the Revelation..... It ain't there!

I would ask that question backwards.

What makes you say that the beast is the "anti-christ"? Or even a man/woman for that matter???

If he is cloned from a woman, "he" will be a "she". The she's mother has the sin nature for she got it through her linage back to Abraham. Eve was the only one that was fooled by Satan, all the rest of us has his sin nature..... even the rest of the women of the world.

At least this is true in a metaphysical sense. You'll have to ask the Lord when He gets here to be sure.

I think the antichrist will be a clown. Like Bozo or Krusty or Sideshow Bob.

1 John 2:18-19

18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

1 John 4:1-3

1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

John seems to be calling "Antichrist" any teacher/prophet/pastor those who preach a "Gospel" that is anti-christ (anti meaning against). In this time, the doctrine of Gnosticism, which denied Jesus Christ having come in the "flesh" because "flesh" was corrupt and evil. John was calling them "antichrists" and of the "spirit of the Antichrist." They are deceivers.

As for what is mentioned in Revelation, there are three beasts - the beast the dragon gives authority to, the beast who performs signs and wonders to entice the world to worship the first beast, and the beast Mystery Babylon is riding on.

So, the one doing the great signs is not the beast who has been tagged as "the Antichrist" but the one who has been tagged as "the false prophet."

As for the descriptions of these beasts with many animal parts, you need to compare them to the visions/prophecies recorded in the Old Testament. They were symbolic then - why should they no longer be symbolic now?
