Tomahawk Missionary Baptist Church's Podcast

Only The Apostle John gives us the term “anti-Christ.” He talks about an Anti-Christ spirit in 1 and 2 John. Interestingly he does not use the word in the book of Revelation but uses the word “Beast.” The Apostle Paul calls him the man of sin and son of perdition. In Revelation and the Apostle Paul calls out a specific person. In 1 and 2 John, John is talking about a spirit of those opposed to Christ. Actually an anti-Christ hates Jesus Christ. Why do they hate the one who loved us and gave us truth and life and was innocent of any wrong doing or sin?

Antiochus Epiphanes IV ruler of Syria 175-164 BC is almost exact representative of the Anti-Christ, the Beast, the man of Sin and Son of perdition to come. He does the same things on a smaller scale. He did them before Jesus came to be born. The next Anti-Christ will do his evil just before Jesus comes to rule and reign.

Everyone is lying today. We have a Disinformation Governance Board in the federal government. The FDC chairman said last week that Misinformation has killed millions in the world. Who is telling the truth? Where do we start for the truth? The truth is out there and it’s not hard to find.

Egypt the king of the south. Ptolemy Philometor (181–145 b.c.) Syria King of the north. Antichous Epiphaneses IV 164-175 BC)

Clint Eastwood made this movie title famous. But it sure does describe the women in the Bible like Jezebel, Herodias, Gomer, Lot’s wife, the Witch of Endor, Deliliah, Potiphar’s wife, Athaliah who murdered her grandchildren, and finally Eve. Let’s change the order around a bit and start with the UGLY first.

We know what makes a person wicked. They steal, kill, rob, plunder and abuse people. But the Bible says the wicked are those who reject Jesus Christ. The little grandmother who has never received Jesus Christ is called wicked by the Bible. She is a Jesus Rejector. 1 Timothy 4:5 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. People fail to receive Jesus and turned to a false way are headed for destruction. Yes even that 90 year old grandmother!

Daniel chapter 8 covered a lot of this information now Daniel Chapter 11:2-35 expands upon it with so much detail that it is amazing considering it was written around 539 BC more than 200 to over 300 years before these events happened. These events are the times between the prophets and John the Baptist. The time between the testaments. Usually around 400 BC to 4 BC. The book of Daniel was found in the dead sea scrolls affirming what was already proven….. that Daniel was written in the fifth century BC. Only God knows the future and only God can be one hundred percent accurate in Bible Prophecy!

God only works through people and uses people who call upon Him for His glory and our good. He uses evil people sometimes for His purposes and glory but not for their good. He used Pharoah, Nebuchadnezzer, Cyrus, Pontius Pilate, Judas Iscariot and so on. But not for their good but out of the evil in their own heart. Who was the first preacher? Asked no one ever!!! Have you ever wondered that? Who started preaching. 1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:21 It pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. Let’s meet the first preacher.

Nothing proves the legitimacy of Christianity like the resurrection. Without the resurrection we have no Christianity. We have no hope. We have no purpose for living today except to get all we can and live the law of the jungle. But there was a resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and It’s not over yet. We also will be resurrected

One of the greatest prophecies in the Bible is Palm Sunday. We don't think of it that way ever! But it is true

One day we will meet the angel that has been with us all of our Christian lives. Hebrews 1:13-14 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? They are here right now. Daniel experienced the greatest of Angels. Gabriel. He speaks to Daniel in tonight's text from Daniel ten. We thank Dr Cayce for the background on this study tonight.

: Nothing new under the sun means a repeat of the things that have already been. Satan has great wisdom but he only does the same things over again why? Because it works! Man can be deceived and man can be lured into sin by the same old tricks. Mystery Babylon is man trying to be God or take God’s place. Exactly what Satan did as we will see later. Man is doomed to repeat history if he does not learn from history. How can we be so stupid? It’s not that we are stupid…. it’s that we have only one goal…to be our own god and replace the God of creation. Mystery Babylon is the embodiment the ultimate plan to replace God with man. It has many times reared it’s ugly head in the Bible. And of course it would. It is Satan’s ultimate plan that never changes it only takes on different characters and different paths.

When in the presence of holy angels Daniel was in awe. In Chapter 7 he was in the presence of an Angel. Gabriel Spoke to Daniel in chapter 8. And Gabriel again in Chapter 9:21-27. Now in Ten he is visited again by an angelic like person. But this one has a lot of similarities to an Old Testament appearance of Jesus Christ.

The Bible that you have in your lap will never every be done away with. It will forever be. They say you can’t take it with you…well yes you can take one thing with you….the word of God and the salvation and the promises that it proclaims! Doesn’t that give you a great sense of security and confidence!

Job is the oldest book in the Bible. Written before Moses. It gives us a lot of interesting details about the devil and angels and God. It gives us the answer as to why bad things happen to God’s people. And how to handle the fact that this world is not our final home and it is a sinful, fallen world that has angels and Satan that are against humans. We must stand the test sometimes. That is we must stand in our faith, in our God, and we will neither falter or fail

The Bible gives the answers to the last days and the days we are in right now. Gabriel is the one speaking and giving this prophecy in Chapter 9:20-27. He is telling Daniel what will happen to God’s land and God’s people in their future. So prophecy is for the main part all about Israel and how the rest of the world relates to Israel. So keep your eyes on Israel and the players involved with them and you will know what’s going on. America is not the center of Bible prophecy.

Matthew 24:10-12 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

John 4:22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

Isaiah 65:17-25 A Great day is coming where we will see peace on the earth between all creatures and man and God. Jesus Christ will rule and reign one thousand years.
