This Revelation Timeline Decoded Bible study provides feedback on a YouTube called ‘The Antichrist Identified.’
This video is from Roman Catholics. By pointing to Pope John Paul II as an antipope, as the man of sin, as the antichrist; they effectively are deflecting blame away from the previous Popes who proclaimed to be God, who proclaimed that Mary is the Intercessor to the Father, and who caused Catholics to kill over 50 million saints.
The apostasy, the falling away of 2 Thessalonians 2, was the creation of Roman Christianity in the 4th century, which is contrary to Scripture.
That happened before the man of sin, the son of perdition, the Popes of Rome took power in 538 AD.
The man of sin, the antichrist beast, is not just one man; it is not just one Pope; it is the office of the papacy who rose to power out of the fallen Roman Empire.
The video perverts the text of 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, to make an invalid explanation, to point to Pope John II
This video is disinformation, to hide the truth.

I was in a protestant church on Sunday. There was a guest speaker, the subject according to my understanding was to be the Feast Days. I was really looking forward to this, as I look forward to the fall feasts and Jesus’ return. I was disappointed. He did make reference to the successes of the rebuilding of the Third Temple. You don’t get much of any guidance I wish to follow from the church. Some people even some clergy don’t seem to care. I may be wrong about this but I don’t think so. I feel that those who want to understand and know are a minority. They seem to quench their thirst for understanding by saying Nobody Knows the Time.
That is disappointing! What was he referring to with “the successes of the rebuilding of the Third Temple”?
You know you bring up an interesting question. He was selling CD’s, maybe in my disappointed I should have stopped and bought one.
Well, sadly, most teachers these days are teaching false prophecy fulfillment explanations. And even those who strive to follow the Scriptural calendar, Feast Days and Sabbaths, are following Jewish fables.
I guess that it is coming along. This is not a church that I belong to, so I am assuming they may think that progress in building the Temple means The Rapture. Haven’t you and others taught that there is no need for the Temple and animal sacrifice? That people looking for this are deceived?
People who assign the prophecies of the 70th week of Daniel, the Son of Perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2 and Revelation, to the end times, say that the temple needs to be rebuilt.
But that is false, futuristic teaching, as most of those prophecies have already been fulfilled. The son of perdition Popes of Rome already pretend to be a part of the Christian Church, which is the temple of God. The Popes have already proclaimed to be God. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-son-of-perdition-of-2-thessalonians-2/
The 70th week of Daniel was fulfilled already, when Messiah and His disciples confirmed with the Jews for seven years that he’s the promised Messiah who ratified the everlasting covenant as the Passover Lamb. http://70thweekofdaniel.com/
As for me, the building of the Temple is of no consequence. It will not alter Jesus’s return. It is just a distraction.
Also, the guest speaker who lectured at the Church, said that Flavius Josephus was a traitor. If this is true, does this change in anyway the reporting that he did regarding Jerusalem?
Josephus led a division of the Jewish army, which was defeated and Josephus was captured. He was given privilege to be with the leaders of the Roman army as an observer, so that’s why people refer to him as a traitor. I think that it was the hand of Elohim getting him into that position, so that he could document the events that took place, so that we can see how the prophecies of Daniel 9, Daniel 12, and Messiah’s Olivet Discourse were fulfilled in the 1st century.
