This Revelation Timeline Decoded post features a video from Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries DTBM, called SATAN’S MAN–THE FAKE JESUS, IS SO WINSOME, EVEN BELIEVERS WOULD FOLLOW HIM! BUT GOD KEEPS THEM SAFE.
Video description: At the end of days, Satan empowers one man to win the world. He offers to satisfy all of mankind’s desires for peace & safety. He becomes Satan’s substitute for Jesus Christ, in the person of the antichrist. Today we are looking at how God describes the launch of this event.
Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries says that Satan empowers one man, the antichrist, to win the world.
The futuristic deceptions were created by Catholic Jesuit priests to deflect blame away from the Popes of Rome, as the Protestant Reformers all rightly proclaimed that the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill Bible prophecy as the ‘little horn’ of Daniel 7, the ‘son of perdition’ of 2 Thessalonians 2, and the ‘beast’ of Revelation 13, who leads the ‘harlot’ church of Rome.
The great theologians of the 16th-20th centuries taught that Revelation has been in the process of being fulfilled since it was written. It’s only during the last century that the false, futuristic explanations have gained in popularity.

Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries calls the supposed one-man antichrist the ultimate superman.
In the book of Revelation, the primary enemy of Messiah and His saints is the beast which is fulfilled by the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome.
They proclaim to lead Messiah’s ‘one-true church’ but have misled billions of Catholics with a false Gospel of works and that Mary is the intercessor to the Father; which denies Messiah.
The Popes have used Catholics to torture and kill tens of millions of saints during the Dark Ages and Inquisition.
How does Dr. John Barnett not apply these things to the antichrist?

Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries says that God will pull back the restrainer.
The ‘restrainer’ of 2 Thessalonians 2 was the Western Roman Emperor, who was removed from civil power in 476 AD as part of the fourth trumpet judgment.
Then shortly after the Pope of Rome was given civil authority in 538 AD, taking the place of the Emperors as the leader of church and state.

Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries says the Revelation 7:9-14 is about people being saved during an end-times great tribulation.
The narrative in Revelation 7 is about the martyrs of the pagan Roman Empire who Satan used to try to wipe out Messiah’s Ekklesia of saints.
It’s amazing that Dr. John Barnett applies most of Revelation to the end-times. and ignores the times of persecution against the saints which fulfilled prophecy.
Read Revelation 12 – The Roman Empire Beast Phase
Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries says that God has planned to send confusing, false teaching and delusion to the world, so that those who love the truth will stand out.
Sadly, the enemy has caused the end-times church age of Laodicea to be blind, and to cause esteemed teachers like Dr. John Barnett to give confusing, false prophecy fulfillment teachings which have brought a delusion upon the world.
The truth is that most of the prophecies in Revelation have been fulfilled in exacting detail during the last 1,900 years, and there’s not much left to be fulfilled before Messiah returns.

Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries points to 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12.
The ‘falling away’ that the Apostle Paul was pointing to took place during the fourth century, when Emperor Constantine and the Roman bishops created Romanism, a false Christian religion which has misled many millions of people. Read The Falling Away of 2 Thessalonians 2
The Popes proclaim to lead Messiah’s church, thus they sit in the temple of God. They have already proclaimed to be God, to forgive sins and to provide salvation. which is blasphemy. They are the man of sin, because they cause Catholics to sin in making idols of Mary and bowing to her and praying to her; in using prayer beads to make repetitious prayers; in causing Catholics to call them Holy Father, which Messiah forbid; etc. Read The Son Of Perdition Of 2 Thessalonians 2
Dr. John Barnett is an expert at explaining the false, futuristic prophecy fulfillment explanations which were created by the enemy to deceive the end-times saints!
The futuristic deceptions were created by Catholic Jesuit priests to deflect blame away from the Popes of Rome, as the Protestant Reformers all rightly proclaimed that the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill Bible prophecy as the ‘little horn’ of Daniel 7, the ‘son of perdition’ of 2 Thessalonians 2, and the ‘beast’ of Revelation 13, who leads the ‘harlot’ church of Rome.

Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries teaches a false, futuristic fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel 9, the Olivet Discourse and the prophecies in Revelation.
The 70th week of Daniel 9 is about Messiah’s ministry and His blood sacrifice as the Spotless Lamb to atone for our sins. It has nothing to do with the antichrist or the end times.
The Olivet Discourse foretold the events that would lead to the desolation of Jerusalem, the second temple and the Jewish nation; as punishment for the Jewish leaders continuing in rebellion against the Heavenly Father and for delivering His Son up to be killed. It has nothing to do with the antichrist or the end times.
Most of the prophecies in Revelation have been fulfilled in exacting detail during the last 1,900 years. It describes the historical narrative of the Satan-empowered leaders of the Roman beast kingdom (pagan Emperors > antichrist beast Popes > false prophet Jesuit Superior Generals) fighting against Messiah and His saints.
The explanations of Dr. John Barnett of Discover the Book Ministries serve to deflect blame away from the enemy in Rome, and to mislead the end-times saints so that they’re not prepared for how the end-times will play out, and don’t know the context of Messiah’s return.
