But it could simply be that he had a copy of the book of Revelation and patterned this all after the Bible so as to look authentic. LETS CONTINUE WITH OUR STUDY : 1.***Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will have a specific **************agenda to kill as many Jews and Christians as possible. *****Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus hate Jews and Christians and *************will kill as many as possible until only a few are left hiding *************behind rocks and trees. 2.***Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will attack to conquer and **************seize Jerusalem (the battle of Armageddon). *****Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will attack to reconquer and *************seize Jerusalem for Islam. 3.***Bible: The Antichrist will set himself up in the Jewish Temple as his seat of authority (the abomination of desolation). *****Islam: The Mahdi will establish the Islamic caliphate from Jerusalem. 4.****Bible: The False Prophet is said to do many miracles to deceive as ***************many as possible into supporting the Antichrist. ******Islam: The Mahdi himself is said to control the weather and the crops. His face is said to glow. We can also assume that since Jesus is viewed as having been empowered by Allah to work miracles when He was here on earth the first time, He will most likely be expected to continue to do so when He returns. 5.****Bible: The belief at the time of Muhammad (and still believed by some people today) was that the Antichrist is described as riding on a white horse in the Book of Revelation. *******Islam: The Mahdi is described as riding on a white horse (ironically in the same verse in Revelation). 6.****Bible: The Antichrist is said to make a peace treaty (with many) with Israel for seven years (the Confirmation of the Covenant). ******Islam: The Mahdi is said to make a peace treaty through a Jew (specifically a Levite) for exactly seven years. 7.***Bible: Jesus the Jewish Messiah will return to defend the Jews in Israel from a military attack from a vast coalition of nations led by the Antichrist and the False Prophet (the battle of Armageddon). ******Islam: The Dajjal, the Islamic Antichrist, will gain a great Jewish following and claim to be Jesus Christ and fight against the Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus. 8.*****Bible: The antichrist spirit specifically denies the most unique and central doctrines of Christianity, namely the divinity of Jesus, the incarnation of God in the flesh, and the substitutionary death of Jesus on the Cross. *******Islam: Islam doctrinally and spiritually specifically denies the most unique and central doctrines of Christianity, namely the divinity of Jesus, the incarnation of God in the flesh, and the substitutionary death of Jesus on the Cross. 9.*****Bible: From the Bible and history we learn that the final Antichrist empire will be a revived version of the empire that succeeds the Roman Empire (the iron mingled with clay of Daniel 2). ******Islam: The empire that succeeded the Roman Empire was the combined Holy Roman Empire in parallel with the Islamic Ottoman Empire. 10.******Bible: When the Antichrist emerges, a system will already exist poised to receive him as a savior and to give allegiance to him. **********Islam: Islam is already the second largest religion and combined with Christianity constitutes over half of the worlds population. Islam awaits the coming of the Mahdi with universal anticipation. many Christian churches believe that the Muslims will be saved just like Christianity will be, and believe that they worship the same God as Christianity. Its a very short step to convert to Islam if that is believed to be the truth.
