The Antichrist’s Titles in the Old and New Testaments

The  is an excerpt from my book The Seat of the Antichrist: Bible Prophecy and The European Union, it has been  tweaked for this blog post.

The Tribulation is a seven-year period of wars, plagues, famines, earthquakes, and disasters. It ends in the Battle of Armageddon, and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Part of the earth’s judgments happen through a leader whom the masses empower. The Scriptures profile this dictator’s reign of terror. Due to his anti-God, anti-Christ policies, Evangelical circles customarily refer to him as the Antichrist. The Bible mentions this title only once in the Scriptures. The Devil enters this man’s body and wreaks havoc on the world. His reign ignites the Battle of Armageddon (Is. 14:12; Ezek. 28:3-4). Evidencing this leader’s significance, over thirty titles relate to him in both the Old and New Testaments. These include:

Ps. 5-6           The Bloody and Deceitful Man

Ps. 10:2-4    The Wicked One

Ps. 10:18      The Man of the Earth

Ps. 52:1        The Mighty Man

Ps. 74:8-10  The Adversary

Ps. 111:6       The Head of Many Countries

Ps. 140:1       The Violent Man

Is. 10:5-12    The Assyrian

Is. 14:2           The King of Babylon

Is. 14:12         The Sun of the Morning

Is. 16:4-5        The Spoiler (also in Jer. 6;26)

Is. 22:25          The Nail

Is. 25:5             The Branch of the Terrible Ones

Ez. 21:25-27   The Profane Wicked Prince of Israel

Dan. 7:8            The Little Horn

Dan. 9:26          The Prince That Shall Come

Dan. 11:121      The Vile Person

Dan. 11:36        The Willful King

Zec. 11:16-17  The Idol Shepherd

2 Thess. 2:3      The Man of Sin

2 Thess. 2:3      The Son of Perdition

2 Thess. 2:8      The Lawless One

Rev. 9:11            The Angel of the Bottomless Pit

John 5:43          Another Coming in His Own Name

Dan. 8:23            The King of Fierce Countenance

Matt. 24:15        The Abomination of Desolation

Dan. 9:27            The Desolator

Ezek. 28:12         The King of Tyre

Jer. 4:6-7            The Lion

Jer. 4:6-7            The destroyer of the nations

Is. 14:12               Lucifer

1 John 2:18, identifies him as the Antichrist, a liar who denies the Father and the Son. Rev. 13:1 refers to him as “the Beast,” and later in the passage names him 666. The number six, translated from the New Testament Greek into English, means “vex,” or “curse.” Seven represents God’s number of perfection. The triple six represents the unholy trinity, with the Devil acting as God. The Antichrist, whom Satanists call the son of Satan, mimics Jesus Christ. The False Prophet who the Bible predicts will comes onto the earth and performs miracles to get the masses to worship the Beast, mocks God’s Holy Spirit. The unholy trinity are named in Scriptures as “The Dragon,” “The Beast,” and “The False Prophet.” Unlike previous dictators, Satan himself possesses the Antichrist. He obtains the world’s respect by bringing the world prosperity, until the day he declares himself a god and demands worship for himself alone.

Once the Antichrist establishes himself as a deity his evil side manifests itself.
