i recently came across a post on X formerly known as Twitter that claimed that Mr beast is the Antichrist and this post made me wonder who else has been accused of being the Antichrist so I went down the most insane rabbit hole of my life over the past 2,000 years hundreds of people have been identified as this evil person from the Bible from Roman emperors to US presidents to well Mr beast now if you guys know me you know I love a good conspiracy theory and this is basically the most ancient conspiracy theory of all time so I've spent hundreds no dozens of hours researching the possible identity of the Antichrist and I'm finally ready to present my findings to you guys but first I think we need to answer the obvious question what the hell even is the Antichrist well to put it simply he's kind of a satanic super villain it's generally interpreted that the Antichrist will be a powerful political leader who will appear in the end times claiming to be the Messiah he'll force many people to worship Satan and leave behind a trail of death and destruction in his wake before ultimately being defeated by the real Messiah aka Jesus Christ now the funny thing is if you crack open this Bible here you'll notice that the word Antichrist is only mentioned a handful of times the Bible really never says the Antichrist this is Michael Jones he runs the Inspiring Philosophy channel on YouTube and he helped me understand a lot of this stuff there are many antichrists as John says in his epistles generally an antichrist is anybody who opposes Christ in his kingdom when people talk about the Antichrist they're typically referring to the beast from Revelation mostly people tend to kind of conflate a few different evil figures from the Bible so here's how this is going to work the first part of the video I'm going to talk about historical figures who are identified as the Antichrist during their time and the second part will be about people who are still alive that are potentially the spawn of Satan anyways let's jump into the video because honestly I I don't know if I'm allowed to film this church the main book people reference when talking about the Antichrist is Revelation but the idea of a false messiah actually originated in Judaism specifically in the book of Daniel now there's this theory called predtoism that says that the apocalyptic prophecies in Daniel and Revelation were already fulfilled a long time ago and that the antichrist as described in these books were referring to specific historical figures so if this theory is correct then that means that the antichrist described in Daniel is a guy by the name of Antiochus Epiphanies IV so uh who the hell is this guy well let's back up a little bit the year is 323 BC alexander the Great just died from AIDS and his empire was split up into four smaller kingdoms the Seucid Kingdom controlled most of the Middle East including Judea fast forward to 175 BC and Antiochus Epiphanies became king of the Seucids and to say this guy was a schmuck is an understatement you see Antiochus was getting really pissed off because a lot of Jews weren't adopting Greek customs and culture so he began persecuting Jews who refused to integrate into Greek society so they refuse to it's time to force the Jews to do what all other nations have done willingly he started by banning Jewish religious practices like circumcision and animal sacrifice but he also did public Bible burnings and of course straight up executed anyone who refused to cooperate when this wasn't enough this man did the most diabolical thing antiochus went to the temple of God in Jerusalem and built a shrine to Zeus and then he sacrificed a pig to it which is definitely not kosher now the book of Daniel contains a lot of symbolism and I think once we break it down a little bit it'll be pretty easy to see how it relates to Antiochus in the book of Daniel the prophet has a vision of four beasts coming out of the sea the fourth beast was the most terrifying and powerful of them all it's described as having teeth like iron and 10 horns on its head then as Daniel is staring at these horns on the beast's head he notices another horn that was different from the rest it had eyes like a human and a mouth that spoke boastful words this little horn would grow larger than the other 10 before it okay so there's a lot going on here you got creatures you got horns with faces let's break it down the four beasts in Daniel represent different kingdoms of the ancient world uh and there is going to be debate among people who've commented on this so generally the way they look at it is the first one would be Babylon followed by the Mes and the Persians the fourth beast is the Greek Empire under Alexander the Great that splits up and then Antiochus Epiphan IV is the little horn that comes about to go after the saints or the Jews of the day daniel goes on to say that the little horn would create something called the abomination of desolation which sounds like a pretty cool name for a heavy metal band but in this case it's most likely referring to the shrine to Zeus that Antioch has built in the temple and the whole pig thing luckily Daniel also said that this little horn was destined to fail after Antiochus defiled the temple a revolt broke out led by Judas Makabe which eventually led to the Greeks being defeated and the temple being restored and this is where Hanukkah comes from actually Nero was the fifth emperor of Rome and is widely considered to be like the top three shittiest emperors of all time right under his uncle Caligula and Emperor Palpatine but not only was Nero a terrible leader he was also evil especially towards early Christians in fact he was an existential threat to Christianity if Daniel was written about Antiochus then Revelation was most likely written about Nero and I think once you guys know a little bit about Nero's lore it'll make sense why John identified him as the Antichrist now Nero only became emperor of Rome as a result of a lot of scheming by his mom she married the previous emperor Claudius and then whacked him securing her son as the next in line for the throne and Nero thanked his mother by whacking her too i guess the apple doesn't fall far from the murder tree after that rocky start the first few years of Nero's reign were actually going pretty good rome was thriving and he was popular with the people as well as politicians but the honeymoon period wouldn't last long you see the reason everything was going so good was largely because of Nero's mentor and adviser Senica the famous stoic philosopher nero also had him whacked and without anyone holding back his impulses the empire started going to [ __ ] oh and Nero's personal life wasn't any better than his political one he accused his first wife of treason and had her executed so he could marry his side piece you You've probably noticed a bit of a pattern up to this point so this next part shouldn't be surprising one day in a fit of rage Nero kicked his second wife in the stomach hard enough to take her off the senses filled with regret and sadness at the death of his wife and unborn child Nero coped by castrating a young slave boy and marrying him as one does now to be fair and balanced it's entirely possible that a lot of this stuff was exaggerated by Nero's haters so take it with a grain of salt I guess but even if half of this is true Nero was still an evil [ __ ] but I guess being evil on its own isn't enough to designate someone as the Antichrist so let's look at how Nero fits into the prophecies from the book of Revelation in Revelation John describes the Antichrist pretty similarly to Daniel as a giant beast coming out of the sea with 10 horns and seven heads the uh beast is said to have seven heads and it they tell us flat out this represents seven mountains well what was Rome rome was the city on seven hills it talks about having 10 horns well there were 10 procreator governors under Nero in that time it's describing the beast in this highly metaphorical language cryptic language uh that Christians would have understood that day to refer to Rome who was persecuting them it goes on to say that the antichrist will be a powerful ruler who was worshiped as a god and Nero obviously fits the bill and Roman emperors were regarded as gods now Roman emperors from around this time by default disliked Christians because they refused to worship the emperor as a god but starting in 64 AD Nero would wage an allout war against Christians that year Rome went up in flames and twothirds of the city was destroyed in the fire and there were rumors going around that Nero himself started the fire so in an attempt to draw attention away from himself he decided to do what every good leader does and blame the unpopular religious minority which at the time was Christians this kicked off a horrible period of persecution and Christians from all over Rome were rounded up and killed in the worst ways imaginable according to the Roman historian Tacitus mockery of every sort was added to their deaths covered with the skin of beasts they were torn by dogs and perished or were nailed to crosses or were doomed in the flames and burnt to serve as nightly illumination when daylight had expired yeah that means they literally used them as candles and it was around this same time that the saints Peter and Paul were also said to be martyed in Rome i mean that's pretty compelling stuff but let's take a look at the last piece of evidence which I personally think is the most convincing revelation 13 16-18 the beast forced all people great and small rich and poor free and slave to receive the mark and that no man might buy or sell save that he had the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast for it is the number of a man and his number is 666 all right so let's talk about this infamous number okay it says that it is the number of a man well back in those days people used a system called gamatria to assign numbers to words in ancient Greek and Hebrew every letter had a corresponding number if you add up the letters of the name for Emperor Nero written in Hebrew Kaiser Neron the total comes to 666 there's actually two numbers in the earliest manuscripts some say 666 some say 616 but either way it's a gamatri of Nero Caesar just depending on which language you're looking at okay now let's take a look at that verse one more time no man might buy or sell save that he had the mark what did people use to buy and sell back in the day coins what were on those coins nero's fat disgusting face along with his name aka the mark of the beast 666 now in 68 AD Nero had become an enemy of Rome and the Senate basically put out a hit on him instead of waiting for them to kill him he decided to take his own life but early Christians were so convinced that he was the Antichrist that a lot of them believed that he would come back from the dead because it also says in Revelation that the beast would have a fatal wound on its head that would heal there was this idea that maybe Nero would come back to life sort of like a satanic version of Jesus rising from the dead so Jesus rose from the dead maybe Nero was also going to rise from the dead what's crazy is that three people came out after Nero had died claiming to be him and you know what's even crazier the fact that there are psychos out there selling your personal information

antichrist candidate now Islam has its own concept of an antichrist which they call the djal or the false messiah now he's not directly mentioned in the Quran but there's multiple hadiths related to the Islamic antichrist and he's very similar to the Christian version according to the hadith that dehal will proclaim himself to be the messiah and deceive people into following him by using false miracles then the end of the world happens and he'll be defeated by the second coming of Christ so basically the same thing is in the Bible one of the main contenders for the title of Djal was a guy by the name of Saf Iban Siad according to one hadith Sed actually met Muhammad himself and rejected his prophethood instead claiming that he himself was the prophet apparently even Muhammad himself suspected that he might be the Djal now he was only mentioned a few more times after that but the last mention of Iban Sed said that he disappeared under mysterious circumstances during a battle and that his body was never found napoleon got to be top five best desserts of all time the richness of the custard pairs perfectly with the flaky crust sorry I'm really hungry napoleon Bonaport is probably one of the greatest generals of all time ro came out of nowhere and took over half of Europe in just a few years at its height his empire stretched from Spain to Poland and if you were alive at the time it might have looked like something straight out of the Bible that is until Napoleon tried to invade Russia and got his [ __ ] pushed in worse than a prostate exam from Shaq in Napoleon's time there was no bigger contender for the unholy crown than him everyone from American preachers to the emperor of Russia were pretty much convinced that this man was the spawn of Satan even the famous fortune teller Quasimoto claimed that Napoleon was the first of three antichrists who would destroy the world nostradamus made over a thousand predictions the most startling of them deals with the coming of three antichrists [Music] hitler is believed to have been one of these [Music] another is thought to have been Napoleon oh wait his name was Nostradamus not Quasimoto sorry I I got it mixed up with the Hunchback of Notre Dame anyways there are four main reasons people thought Napoleon was the antichrist what I like to call the four isms expansionism secularism Judaism and feudalism so let's talk about the obvious one expansionism both Revelation and Daniel talk about a powerful ruler who would conquer the world like I said Napoleon's empire went from Spain to Poland and he even conquered Egypt which the book of Daniel also says that the antichrist would do this man even conquered the Vatican which brings me to my next point secularism now even though Napoleon was baptized Catholic he was more of an agnostic or a deisist for most of his life despite that he did restore a lot of power to the Catholic Church that had lost during the French Revolution but Napoleon made it clear to the Vatican that the church was not above the state and this was made painfully evident when he kidnapped and imprisoned the pope on top of that Napoleon granted equal rights and freedoms to all religions including smaller Christian sex Islam and more importantly Judaism which is our next ism now at the time in France Jewish people weren't allowed to own land they couldn't work most jobs they weren't even allowed to speak Hebrew publicly and they were forced to live in ghettos napoleon did away with all these rules and gave the Jews the same rights that everybody else had then Napoleon took it a step further when he tried to create Israel that's right napoleon was the OG Zionist some people back then and also a lot of evangelical Christians today actually believe that reestablishing Israel as a nation would directly lead to the apocalypse revelation talks about Israel being there and Jerusalem being there and a temple being there that didn't exist for a large percentage of Christian history so all of a sudden Israel's back in the promised land and so people thought this was a prerequisite for revelation finally being fulfilled in our time they think when that happens it will signify the end times napoleon even brought back the Sanhedrin which was the Jewish council that condemned Jesus to death now it's safe to say that these moves were unbelievably unpopular in 19th century Europe but Russia was especially outraged sar Alexander came out and straight up publicly said that Napoleon was the antichrist and the enemy of God as a direct result of these policies towards Jews now part of this was anti-semitism and part of it was Russia had the largest population of Jews in the world at the time and if they all suddenly became sympathetic to Napoleon's cause and joined him that would be not so good for him but Thesar had a way bigger problem on his hands than the Jews and that's our last ism feudalism napoleon's political philosophy was born out of the French Revolution which rejected slavery and feudalism when Napoleon conquered Poland he abolished feudalism and liberated all the surfs now this terrified the [ __ ] out of the Russian nobles because all of their power was derived from feudalism if Napoleon got the peasantry on his side they could rebel and then the Russian Empire would be cooked because after all the peasants far outnumbered the nobles if Russia was ever going to stand a chance against Napoleon then the zar needed to get the surfs on his side in comes the Russian Orthodox Church at the time and kind of still today the church was pretty much another arm of the Russian government they issued an appeal to the peasants framing the conflict as an apocalyptic holy war with the Antichrist leading an army of demonic frogs on one side and the godly Russians fighting to uphold Christendom on the other and at the end of the day it made sense why they would frame it like this napoleon was an existential threat to Russia in particular and to Europe in general he promoted these new ideas of secularism enlightenment and freedom while at the same time leaving a trail of dead bodies in his wake but luckily for Russia Napoleon's invasion into their country was a massive failure napoleon marched on Moscow in June with 600,000 men by December only 30,000 of them remained now most of these men didn't even die in battle but from a massive typhus outbreak plus an especially brutal winter which some saw as the fulfillment of this prophecy from Daniel so was this divine intervention or just Napoleon screwing up i don't know man don't ask me all I know is that I really really want a Napoleon right now in this great country of ours called the United States of America there is a rich history of accusing our presidents of being the antichrist and this tradition started back with the boy Franklin D roosevelt now you see back in the day it was considered rude to accuse your country's president of being the spawn of Satan but despite that this one guy named Gerald Winrod led the charge in exposing FDR for who he really was the Antichrist winrod was a Baptist preacher and political activist who ran a newspaper called The Defender which could be described as a Nazi propaganda but hey don't take my word for it here's an excerpt from a newspaper from the time while our country fights for its life some Americans sew lies and hate inside our lines they abused free speech and spread Hitler's propaganda man things haven't really changed much winrod thought that the D in FDR stood for devil he saw the New Deal as the first step towards communism and believe that FDR was planning a communist takeover of the United States oh and apparently FDR was both an agent of the Catholic Church and a secret Jew at the same time you know I got to give it to this guy these days schizo conspiracy theorists are like a dime a dozen but this man was a pioneer since him pretty much every president has been the antichrist for one reason or another now believe it or not FDR wasn't the only person Winrod accused of being the antichrist there was another Benito Mussolini aka Il Duche which I believe is Italian for the douche now there's this story it's not really a famous story but it's a story of two evangelical missionaries Edith and Ralph Norton who visited Mussolini back in 1932 and they warned him that he was fulfilling a lot of the prophecies described in the books of Daniel and Revelation the Nortons and some of their fellow evangelicals thought that Mussolini would bring back the Roman Empire and essentially become the second coming of Nero so they visited Rome to try to deter him from being the antichrist which backfired hilariously upon being shown the passages Illuche was apparently much pleased the role of global dictator was one he would gladly assume another prominent evangelical Christian pastor named Charles Price wrote an entire book titled Mussolini is he the antichrist in it he accuses Mussolini of being the false prophet which is an antichrist like figure described in Revelation and you know I actually think this needs a a short explanation of something called the unholy trinity so the unholy trinity is the beast the dragon and the false prophet the dragon is Satan obviously in Revelation it says the dragon will give his power and authority to the first beast and then the first beast then in turn gives power to the second beast and we sort of see that in Rome giving power and authority to the Jerusalem elites who then use their power to persecute Christians people throughout history have identified these with various figures who have followed a similar pattern where you have a strong political authority and a religious authority just like Napoleon before him Mussolini used the Catholic Church to provide influence and legitimacy for his regime he painted himself as a pious man when in reality bro was an atheist like this guy used to write articles [ __ ] on the Catholic Church now we've briefly discussed this but it also says in Revelation that there would be a wound on the beast's head that would heal and this would be interpreted as Mussolini giving the Vatican its own independent state and making Catholicism the official state religion of Italy this is the healing of the church's wounded power in exchange for healing the wound Mussolini was able to have a lot of influence over the church and he could use that to his advantage which fulfills the prophecy it exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast whose fatal wound had been healed now there's a lot more I can get into with this one but Benito kind of lost his status as the number one antichrist contender in 1938 when a much worse person would rise to power hitler is the second antichrist prophesized by Nostradamus after Napoleon i think it's pretty obvious why he shared a lot of the same qualities as the other people we've talked about plus you know the whole uh Holocaust thing and on top of all that he was also a blasphemer hitler tried to push his own Nazi version of Christianity called positive Christianity which rejected the divinity of Christ and most of the Old Testament which he considered too Jewish it mostly focused on how Jesus was this blondhaired blue-eyed Aryan fighting against the corrupt Jewish leadership so you know heresy john F kennedy when Kennedy was elected in 1960 he was the first Catholic president which was very controversial evangelical Christians in America were [ __ ] their britches because they thought Kennedy had dual loyalty to the Pope and that he would just be a a puppet for the Vatican some Protestant leaders warned their followers that electing Kennedy would be like handing the presidency to the Antichrist weirdly enough this sentiment didn't go away after Kennedy passed away from a severe case of bullet to the head a theory arose that either JFK did not die or he did die but he was raised from the dead thereby fulfilling the scriptures now you're probably thinking to yourself who the [ __ ] is this guy and I thought the same thing well he's mentioned in this book called The Late Great Planet Earth by Hal Lindsay this book written in 1971 was extremely influential in shaping how many people see the antichrist today it was made into a movie narrated by Orson Wells the incredible best-selling book by Hell Lindsay is now a motion picture that dares to explore the terrifying meanings of the ancient prophecies the Late Great Planet Earth featuring Orson Wells jeez bro this guy was like my ex-wife he never said no to anything anyways in the book Hal speculates that the Antichrist will be an extremely charismatic European leader who heads a confederacy of nations that will rival the United States and he matched this up with uh a lot of things from the book of Daniel the book goes on to say that the antichrist will be a globalist with goals of establishing a one world government and one world religion under his control lindsay points to the French politician Jean Jacqu Sonel because he was one of the first people to advocate for his so-called United States of Europe alistister Crowley was and this is putting it mildly a weird [ __ ] he was an oultist cult leader drug addict sexual degenerate and worst of all British pretty much any vile despicable thing short of murdering people this guy did it and he did it with glee because his whole shtick was based around breaking cultural taboss now Crowley's religion the LMO was like a combination of Egyptian mythology new age nonsense and a distorted version of Christianity but at the end of the day it was just like a straightup sex cult okay these people did stuff so freaky it would make your mom blush i'm not going to go into it too much but let's just say at least one goat was involved he didn't get the nickname the wickedest man in the world for no reason and that wasn't his only nickname he also referred to himself as the new messiah and the beast a name which apparently was given to him by his mother who thought he was a putts i mean is is it really a surprise that this dude had mommy issues on a few occasions Crowley straight up called himself the antichrist so I don't know if it counts if it's like self-identified but you know I got I got to pad the run time somehow ronald Reagan world famous Hollywood actor now you might not know this but he also served as president of the United States from 1981 to '89 i know I was shocked too another thing you might not know is that Ronald Reagan was almost assassinated ronald Reagan was two months into his presidency when John Hinckley Jr drew a $29 handgun outside the Washington Hilton Hotel on March 30th 1981 no actually there was another assassination attempt made on his life a less known one after he got out of office the year is 1990 president Reagan has been out of office for a little over a year and he's enjoying his retirement sitting by the pool sipping Johnny Walker when all of a sudden on the corner of his eye he spots a man running towards him and screaming luckily the Secret Service were able to subdue the man before he got to Reagan the man had one goal to kill Ronald Reagan at least that's according to one Secret Service agent at the scene so who was this this strange man well it was none other than Jesus Christ his birth name is Gregory Stewart Gordon and according to himself he is the second coming of Christ greg right yes greg gregory Stewart gregory Stewart Gordon gordon why isn't your name Jesus and well his name is Jesus you are Jesus right i get the two G's in the S gregory Stewart gordon ggs gordon gregory Stewart two G's in S g gs you might be Jesus i am now Greg was sentenced to two years in federal prison for threatening the life of a former US president which is kind of crazy that he only got two years but anyways after he got out he wrote a book titled Ronald Reagan Antichrist in it he claims that the beast from Revelation basically reincarnates and takes on different forms throughout history including Nero Mussolini Nikolai Chawushesu which he spelled so wrong that it's actually disgusting like come on bro what is this he also said that he is one in a long line of beast hunters tasked with a holy mission from God to destroy the beast but the question is this why would Greg think that Reagan specifically is the Antichrist after all Reagan wasn't such a bad guy well I mean he did allow Central American paramilitary groups to flood our country with metric [ __ ] tons of drugs and then he did illegally sell weapons to our enemies to fund those same paramilitary groups and then there was the whole AIDS thing and the savings and loan scandal but come on man it's not like you never made a mistake all that stuff aside what possible reasons could Greg have that are backed by the Bible well after looking into it I was able to uncover some pretty convincing evidence okay so get ready to get blasted in the face with 500 megat tons of facts number one Reagan's address 666 St cloud Road this is not a joke by the way this was his actual address in California but maybe that's not enough for you okay well how about this let's take a careful look at Ron's full name ronald Wilson Reagan notice anything weird about this i'll just let my boy Greg Gordon explain it for you ronald Wilson Reagan ronald has six letters wilson has six letters reagan has six letters three sixes infamous mark of the beast ronald Wilson Reagan 666 the Antichrist checkmate atheists actually this was kind of a popular theory back in the day our boy Greg wasn't alone in thinking this i even found a Washington Post article from 1980 talking about the whole Reagan Antichrist connection now Reagan passed away in 2004 so that's the end of that right well according to Greg he might still be alive and is just biting his time until he's ready to do the apocalypse well I've also heard that he might still be alive which kind of doesn't surprise me as um he might have gone underground he went underground on to on 66 2004 2 plus 0 plus 0 plus 4= 6 so in underground on a 666 day was me was too coincidental i think he might still be alive man how old would Reagan be right now if he was still alive probably younger than Joe Biden right now i highly suggest you guys buy Greg's book because uh you know I feel like he could use the money and actually it's it's pretty entertaining i'm not going to lie mikail Gorbachev when Ronald Reagan met with Gorbachev in 1986 a lot of conservative evangelicals in the United States were upset because Reagan was actually meeting with the Antichrist that's right not only was Reagan the Antichrist but his main rival was as well and what was their argument well his birthmark looked like a dragon which is clearly the dragon from Revelation and that's pretty much it it's just just the birthark i don't know man i feel like the Antichrist wouldn't make it that obvious right plus I think his birthmark is kind of like a roar shack test you kind of see what you want to see cuz to me it looks like a can of nitrous oxide but you know that's just me henry Kissinger if you made a tier list of all the evil people in the world he would probably go in a like he wasn't like pulp pot evil but he did cause the deaths of a [ __ ] ton of Cambodians kissinger rose to prominence in the 70s when he became Richard Nixon's Secretary of State it was during this time that he actually won a Nobel Peace Prize for bringing an end to the Vietnam War this was of course after convincing Nixon to carpet bomb the absolute dog [ __ ] out of Cambodia killing tens of thousands of civilians on top of supporting multiple genocidal dictators but I mean what can you really expect from the same organization that unironically nominated Joseph Stalin for a peace prize twice kissinger was seen as this incredibly powerful and evil agent of chaos who was pulling America's geopolitical strings and would usher in the end times which I don't know man they might have been on to something with this one this dude was pretty much the number one contender for the Antichrist position until when he was still alive people thought that Saddam was the third antichrist prophesized by Nostradamus to unpack we got to talk about Ahur she was Aha so apart from the beast of Revelation there's another character that plays a big role in the apocalypse and that is the [ __ ] of Babylon or the harlot of Babylon she's described as a woman riding a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and it also had seven heads and 10 horns upon her forehead was written a name Babylon the Great the mother of prostitutes and abominations the harlot of revelation uh which is probably understood by John to be Jerusalem could also be understood in various sects of Christianity to be all sorts of other nations or uh cities or groups of people who have turned away from God some people literally took this to mean that Babylon would be resurrected and that Saddam Hussein would be the one to do it because modernday Iraq is located where Babylon was back in the day and Saddam had a little moment there where it looked like he was going to pretty much take over the Middle East in 1996 Pope John Paul II was in the middle of giving a speech to European Parliament when all of a sudden how much I the heckler in question was Reverend Ian Paisley a member of the European Parliament and a Presbyterian minister you can't hear it too well but he was yelling "I denounce you as the Antichrist." while holding up a sign saying "Pope John Paul 2 Antichrist." Now the Pope has come up a few times already in relation to some of the other people we've talked about why is that protestants have a rich tradition of accusing the Pope of being the Antichrist going all the way back to the 16th century october 31st 1517 Wittenberg Germany catholic monk named Martin Luther marched up to the town's church and nailed a piece of paper to the door luther didn't know it yet but this paper would change the course of history forever it would come to be known as the 95 thesis and was basically a list of complaints Luther had about the Catholic Church martin Luther went around Germany handing this paper out and challenging anybody to debate him on any of the points now if you read the 95 thesis you'll find one word come up a lot indulgences what's an indulgence so Catholics believe that not only is there a hell and a heaven but there's also a place called purgatory which is kind of like a waiting room for heaven right where you're saved but also like you got to atone for some of the sins before you get into heaven and you can shorten the amount of time you have to stay in purgatory by doing indulgences which are essentially good works like fasting pilgrimage certain prayers and charity now that last one is important because some priests were essentially saying "Hey if you give the church money that will count for a bunch of indulgences." Your pope sends you a gift a gift to save you from such fires a special indulgence granted for the building of St peter's Church in Rome which by the way this was not allowed but like a lot of priests were still doing it so Martin Luther was going around Germany challenging everybody to debate him on his 95 thesis this man was basically a Renaissance era debate bro pretty soon word of Luther's beef with the church made it all the way to the Pope himself now at first the pope just tried to shut Luther up you know tried to uh reason with him but when he saw that that wasn't working he officially excommunicated him in 1521 and this was a pretty big deal because not only was Luther kicked out of the church but he was also declared a heretic and basically a criminal by the pope by this point Luther was pretty much totally convinced that all of the apocalyptic prophecies about the Antichrist matched up perfectly with the Pope here was Luther's reply to the Pope's excommunication order i ask thee ignorant Antichrist do thou think with your naked words that you can prevail against the armor of scripture i call upon you to renounce your diabolical blasphemy and if you will not we shall hold your seat as possessed by Satan the damn seat of the Antichrist i'm not going to lie dude was kind of spitting now Antichrist wasn't the only thing Luther called the Pope he also referred to him as quote "Pope fart ass." He also commissioned this drawing of two peasants farting in the Pope's face which he used as the cover for one of his essays it's kind of funny man but listen Martin Luther wasn't just talking [ __ ] he also spent years studying the Bible and was convinced that he was living in the end times and that the biblical prophecies about the Antichrist matched up perfectly with the Pope now Luther passed away in 1546 but he started a tradition of Protestants calling the pope the antichrist that stuck around pretty much until today about a hundred years after Luther this guy Francis Turin came out and said that the antichrist was not an individual person but a position and the entire office of the pope was the antichrist puerto Rico it's like the Judea of the Western Hemisphere because it's the birthplace of Jesus or should I say Jesus specifically a guy named Joseé Louise de Jesus Miranda who was a man who claimed to be the second coming of Jesus Christ i am the second coming of Christ that messiah that they've been waiting for he runs a worldwide organization Crescendo and Gracia or Growing in Grace that he claims has millions of followers hold on let's pause for a second if this guy claims to be Jesus why is there a 666 on his podium well to explain that I feel like I need to give you some of this guy's backstory and you won't be disappointed because this is genuinely one of the most psychotic individuals I've ever looked into joseé Luis de Jesus Miranda was born and raised in Puerto Rico he was a self-admitted criminal and drug addict who landed himself in prison multiple times on one of these trips to the slammer Jose claimed that he was visited by two angels now I'm not sure if he means angels like from the Bible or two Spanish dudes named Anel either way starting in 1973 or 76 based on which version of the story he's telling Jose merged with the spirit of Jesus Christ and became the second coming from that point he started hearing a voice in his head which he said was God in the early 80s the voice told him to go to Miami where he was able to secure his very own radio show and he started preaching his insane version of Christianity to the world and what was so insane about it well Jose preached that sin no longer existed and essentially people were free to do whatever they wanted because they would be saved he preaches a message of freedom to indulge this message tells us that we're perfect that there's no sin that there's no devil and also no hell before the presence of God there is no more sin he says "And with no sin," De Jesus teaches his followers there is no devil and no need for prayer because after Jesus of Nazareth died and was resurrected one can literally do no wrong in God's eyes this message really resonated with the people of Miami which makes sense because that place is a godless degenerate hell hole but it wouldn't be long before he started gaining a following outside of the United States mainly in Latin American countries by the mid200s Jose had millions of followers in 30 countries according to him he was so big that famous insufferable douchebag Bill Maher put him in a documentary the bloodline come from Abraham Abraham to David david to Jesus Nazareth jesus Nazare me okay okay this interview pretty much convinced me that the dude is just a massive troll in 2006 Jose dropped an absolute bombshell that not only was he the second coming of Jesus but also the Antichrist now if you're thinking to yourself that makes no sense well you're right jose said that people misunderstand the concept of the antichrist and it's not actually an evil thing according to him the antichrist is not the devil he is the being who replaces Jesus on earth antichrist is the best person in the world it means do not put your eyes on Jesus of Nazareth put it on Jesus after the cross meaning him to show his commitment to his idea jose tattooed the number 666 on his forearm and over 30 people in his congregation followed suit there was even a mother in Cuba who tattooed her three-year-old child all right this is this is just a cult this is like a weird cult now Jose passed away on August 8th 2013 or did he his ex-wife announced that he died from cerosis of the liver but a month later on 9/11 Jose came out in true Antichrist fashion and said that the rumors of his demise were unfounded and that he was in fact healthier than ever but then a month after that on November 15th he actually died or did he yeah he did of course if you ask Joe's followers he didn't die because he's an immortal being but uh I'm not asking them since his quote unquote death Jose's quote unquote cult known as Crescendo Deg Gracia fractured into multiple smaller cults and I'm sure a lot of people made tattoo removal appointments i hope all right we did it we made it to the second half of the video now that we've looked at all the Antichrist candidates throughout history I think we can get a better idea of what to look for when trying to spot the Antichrist today from here on out all the people I'm going to talk about are still alive okay these potential demons walk among us wait are are Among Us memes still funny probably not vladimir Putin okay so to understand this one I should briefly explain how the Eastern Orthodox Church works to you westoids so you can think of the Catholic Church as an absolute monarchy where one guy at the top has full control over all his territory the Eastern Orthodox Church is more like a confederacy with a bunch of patriarchs administering to their territories but they're still in full communion with each other ukraine used to be under the jurisdiction of the Russian patriarch but they separated after Putin illegally invaded their land i don't want to get political the current acting patriarch of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine has stated "The spirit of the antichrist is at work in the leader of Russia the signs of which the scriptures reveal to us pride devotion to evil ruthlessness false religiosity hitler was like that during World War II now Putin has become like that." And if you look online you'll see quite a few people who share this outlook almighty Jesus Christ created heaven and the universe you are antichrist you are antichrist barack Obama there was a poll back in 2013 that said 13% of Americans believe that Obama was the antichrist and another 13% were unsure now do you guys remember chain mail no not that chain mail like like chain emails most of them were things like "Send this to five people or Franklin the Turtle will murder you in three business days." Back in 2007 there were several chain emails that were going around accusing Obama of being the Antichrist now I wasn't really able to find any of them but um I'm sure they were very convincing during my several minutes of research I've also found um evidence that Barack Obama's name was directly mentioned in the Bible specifically in Luke 10:18 where it says "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." Now apparently the words lightning from heaven in Hebrew are pronounced as Barack Obama so it says "I saw Satan fall like Barack Obama." It says this in the Bible guys now given this plethora of information identifying Obama as the beast it wouldn't really be surprising if somebody decided to act on this right on 1111 2011 multiple shots were fired at the White House some of them hit the second floor where the president's bedroom is located police have arrested a 21-year-old man in a shooting that involves the White House the investigation began Friday night when witnesses said they heard gunfire beyond the south lawn it was clear that whoever did this was trying to assassinate Barack Obama but luckily the wouldbe assassin tried to carry out his attempt when Obama was out of town i guess he didn't think to check his travel schedule so nothing ended up happening because nothing ever happens law enforcement later arrested Oscar Ortega a 21-year-old man from Idaho oscar Ortega was convinced that he was the second coming of Jesus and that Obama was well you know he also apparently tried to go on Oprah before attempting a Kennedy so I ask you Oprah better yet I'm begging you Oprah please cast me onto your show Oprah it is so crucial that the world hears God's word for the fate of humanity for the fate of mankind oprah that's the perfect segue now uh by this point it should not be surprising to anybody that a ton of internet forums were calling out Oprah for being the antichrist which to be fair a lot of people who are at that level of fame get accused of that okay but I wanted to include her because she was actually called out by an evangelical pastor okay so we already talked about the the [ __ ] of Babylon right well according to this guy it's referring to an actual woman instead of a nation the heart of Babylon is preparing the nations to receive the antichrist i believe that one of the main pastors as a forerunner to the harlot movement it's not the harlot movement yet is Oprah she is winsome she is kind she is reasonable she is utterly deceived this guy his name is Mike Bickl he's the founder of IHOP no not the scrumptious pancake chain the international house of prayer and Mr belel seems pretty convinced that Oprah is the [ __ ] of Babylon a classy woman a cool woman a charming woman but has a spirit of deception and she is one of the clear pastors forerunners to the harlot movement bro I've never seen anyone be so complimentary while calling someone evil at the same time and you know not that this takes away from his credibility or anything but Mike was kicked out of IHOP for sexual misconduct which coincidentally my uncle Ruben was also kicked out of an IHOP for sexual misconduct if you go on Facebook or X formerly known as Twitter you'll find a lot of accusations that uh Joe Biden is either the antichrist or he's paving the way for the antichrist people argue that he's a wolf in sheep's clothing that he claims to be a Christian while at the same time subverting Christianity either way for the most part this stuff stayed on the internet didn't really leak into the real world until January 25th 2022 independence Kansas a man placed a call to the local police department and told them he was traveling to Washington DC so that he could quote "cut the head off the snake in the heart of the nation." The next day Secret Service agents met with the guy and they searched his car where they found three bullets no gun just three bullets pretty weird right but when they searched the guy's Facebook page things started to make sense there will be a miracle happening at the White House i believe Joe Biden is the Antichrist now and he will suffer a fatal head wound i'll deal that blow in Christ's name and I'm going to do it with bullets and no gun now this is uh you know not really a a funny story and the guy uh from what I read he went through a psychotic break due to PTSD from his time in the war so hopefully he's able to get some help and not get thrown in prison forever jared Kushner is the son-in-law of Donald Trump and he also served as one of Trump's senior adviserss during his first term which pretty much made him one of the most powerful men in the world at the time also I don't know if you guys noticed this but he has the word Kush in his name which is pretty cool before becoming Trump's son-in-law the Kushman was a big-time New York City real estate tycoon and CEO of Kushner Enterprises a position which he filled after his predecessor who also happened to be his father was convicted of tax evasion witness tampering and illegal campaign contributions oh and uh you know not really related to anything but Trump gave him a full pardon in 2020 cuz you know why not now the main reason for the Antichrist allegations against Jared is that after taking over his father's company Jared had something to prove he wanted to make big deals to prove that he was a big deal and not just some Nepo baby schmuck so he set his eyes on a property that would be his crown jewel it would be his legacy that property 666 5th Street now Jared being the genius businessman that he is picked the perfect time to acquire this property 2007 famously the best year in history to buy real estate less than a year after closing the deal the Devil Building started bleeding so much money that Kushner was forced to sell half of it off to another investment firm i know uh none of that information was really relevant other than the address but you know I thought it was kind of funny anyways buying a property with 666 in the address is you know kind of weird but could just be a coincidence so let's look at some other evidence now a lot of people believe that the Antichrist will bring peace to the Middle East at least temporarily and who did Trump put in charge of his Middle East peace plan who else but our boy Jared Smoking the Kushner it's a smart decision because after all you know the guy who bought the most expensive piece of real estate in history right before the biggest housing crash in history that's who you want to fix the Middle East the third and final reason why people believed Jared Kushman is the Antichrist is that he received a lot of money from the Soros Foundation which brings me to our next person george Soros is a billionaire financier and philanthropist who almost single-handedly bankrupted England's central bank after betting against the pound it was a day when the Bank of England lost billions and speculators made fortunes it was in excess of a a billion dollars of of profits a day of disaster from which the government never recovered in excess of a billion dollars profits soros uses his wealth to fund progressive and liberal causes all over the world and for that reason he's become kind of a boogeyman for right-wing types he's rich powerful liberal and an atheist also he's Jewish which I'm sure doesn't play into these theories at all you know I will give them this this guy does look evil as [ __ ] now Source has been liberal no pun intended in throwing his money around in order to shape the world how he sees fit in the form of NOS's super PACs and political donations cuz you know nothing says good old-fashioned liberal values like almost destroying an entire country's economy now a little bit of a hot take here but I don't think it matters what side you're on politically unelected billionaires should not have as much power as they have in our political system i am become meme yeah pretty much i have never seen a better example of a guy who put all his stat points into luck i don't really want to get into him too much because there's a thousand videos on Elon breaking down how much of a schmuck he is so instead let's just focus on why people think he's the antichrist first of all he wore this suit of armor at a Halloween party with a literal demon in an upside down cross on it which I mean that's a bit on the nose but hey a lot of people have worn questionable Halloween costumes heck I'll admit it i dressed up as Bill Cosby one year not proud of it but I did it it's a different time okay uh satanic costume aside there's a much bigger reason why people think he's the [Music] antichrist neuralink aka Elon Musk's brain chip the stated goal for Neurolink is that it's supposed to help people with neurological disorders like Parkinson's which is objectively a good thing but the long-term goal is something called transhumanism not to be confused with transgenderism transhumanism is a philosophy that says humans should use technologies to augment themselves and push the human body past its natural limitations essentially creating a a race of cyborgs elon believes that if we don't merge with the machines then AI will eventually destroy us allah Terminator 2 we're going to have the choice of either being left behind and being effectively useless or like a pet you know or eventually figuring out some way to be symbiotic and merge with AI it's an actual quote from Elon so how does this fit into the Antichrist stuff well remember in Revelation it says that the Antichrist will force all people great and small to receive a mark on their hands or on their foreheads so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark now it's not much of a stretch to say that one day you're going to need to have a brain chip in your head just to do financial transactions and probably everything else too now so far Neurolink has only been functioning as a monkey euthanasia device but in the future it could be required to participate in society it's like if you don't know how to use a computer today you're pretty much cooked you can't do anything now Elon probably isn't the Antichrist but I don't know giving a narcissistic manchild who lies about being good at video games for no reason access to our brains just doesn't sound like a good idea to me like you cannot tell me this [ __ ] wouldn't explode your brain for making fun of him on Twitter you've all Noah Harrari he's an author you might know him from his book Sapiens which is probably currently gathering dust on your bookshelf somewhere along with your copy of Atomic Habits you swore you would read one day uval like Elon is a big proponent of transhumanism and he's written extensively about the future where he thinks that human beings will merge with machines to become gods now Uvo has been accused of being the false prophet mostly by this guy so I started charging people and then those people led to more people and now I'm a business coach this is Klay Clark he's a businessman podcaster and professional Donald Trump glazer he also has very strong opinions about UVA in one episode of his podcast Klay invited a preacher on to spend an hour breaking down why Uval is the antichrist so this is the guy he also abstains from eating meat he does not eat meat says 1 Timothy 4:3 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of evil of devils speaking lies and hypocrisy having their conscience seared with a hot iron forbidding to marry he's gay and commanding to abstain from meats." He doesn't eat meat the Daniel 11:37 says "Neither shall he have regard for the God of his fathers." He's Israeli "nor the desire of women nor regard any god for he shall magnify himself above all." To summarize the Antichrist checklist according to this guy is Jewish atheist gay and vegan which you've all of the above then again so is like half the population of Brooklyn another one of our technocratic overlords Bill Gates has been accused of being the Antichrist for like 30 years now going all the way back to 1997 with this chain email that went into excruciating detail on why Bill Gates is the AC exhibit A is that if you convert all the letters of Bill Gates's name to ASI and then add all the numbers up it equals 666 now if you've never touched a woman you probably don't know about this but Microsoft Excel has a bunch of Easter eggs which are like hidden surprises and little games hidden within the software for example if you do things in a certain order you can play Space Invaders in Excel pretty cool right well one of these Easter eggs was called the Hall of Tured Souls well apparently this wasn't just a fun little nod to Doom but it's a subtle reference to the fact that Bill Gates is the spawn of Satan the email continues "Wouldn't be surprised if Bill Gates is the Antichrist after all it was already foretold in the Bible that someone powerful would rise up and lead the world to destruction bill Gates definitely has that kind of power in his hands more than 80% of the world's computers run on Windows and DOSs including those at the Pentagon." Now the whole Bill Gates Antichrist thing kind of died off for a little bit but it made a massive comeback in 2020 because Bill Gates is a huge advocate for vaccines specifically the COVID vaccine which has also been linked to the mark of the beast also you know the fact that he was best friends with a guy named Jeff doesn't help either there's an entire 26- minutee long video breaking down Gamatria and connecting it to Prince Harry i'm just going to play a little bit of it so you guys can get the idea all these things by themselves are insignificant but when placed alongside the number of his name calculation we know that Prince Harry is the first beast in Revelation 13 and therefore the Antichrist got to give it to this guy he's He's dedicated bro he really he really has beef with Prince Harry the people of India are going crazy it's disgusting donald Trump you may know him for his brief appearance in Home Alone 2 but what he's most famous for is being the president like right now anyways let's not waste any time with this one is Trump the Antichrist let's take a look exhibit A in Revelation it says that the beast would have a wound on its head which would heal we talked about this a few times already well remember when Trump got shot and you you might not remember because the whole thing got kind of memory hold for some reason but yeah he got shot in the ear which is connected to the head and it did heal miraculously fast I might add actually pretty impressive especially at his age no scar or nothing now this could also be taken metaphorically right like his political career was wounded when he lost the election and then it was healed when he won later and that's just the tip of the iceberg okay this guy Benjamin Corey who is a Christian author and theologian reviewed every Antichrist prophecy and found that Trump ticks a lot of the boxes in Daniel 11:25 it says "With a large army he will stir up his strength and courage against the king of the south the king of the south will wage war with a large and very powerful army but he will not be able to stand." So the king of the south could mean Mexico and I don't think I'm telling any tales out of school when I say that Trump has a bit of a adversarial relationship with Mexico recently Trump signed an executive order designating cartels as terrorist organizations and sent a bunch of troops down to the southern border i mean I don't think we're going to go to war with Mexico but we better not okay cuz I got a trip to Cancun planned this summer and also it it would probably suck for other people too he will exalt himself above all so that he sets himself up in God's own temple proclaiming himself to be God okay now we all know Trump has a big ego okay you don't have to be a a woke libord to admit that right which is fine you know a lot of people have big egos in politics but I haven't seen a lot of politicians imply that they might be God or the second coming of God now to be fair and balanced Trump didn't directly say this but he did retweet this tweet which says "The Jewish people in Israel love him like he's the king of Israel they love him like he's the second coming of God." Not going to lie that's an insane thing to read like I know he didn't actually say that but just retweeting that is pretty psychotic that being said I am pretty certain that Trump is not the Antichrist because it says in the book of Daniel that the Antichrist will not desire women and we all know Trump loves women i love women but this guy this guy this is a guy emanuel Mcronone has been president of France since I mean it feels like forever but it's only been since 2017 but when he first won the election all those years ago he was a popular contender for the crown of darkness there was a YouTube video titled "Could Emanuel Mcronone be the Antichrist?" that had over 600k views before it was deleted luckily I was able to find it in a dumpster also known as rumble.com just kidding a dumpster has way less trash in it than Rumble anyways let's look at a couple of points from this video so we can discern for ourselves if this smelly Frenchman is indeed the Antichrist the Antichrist will be a sexual pervert and show no regard for the desire of women daniel 11:37 strangely young Emanuel Macarron at age 15 fell in love with Bridget Trognau a married teacher at his school who at the time was 39 the symbol of a pyramid and an all-seeing eye has long been associated with evil groups such as the Illuminati and the Freemasons who have wanted to destroy the evangelical church and to have Satan worshiped instead macron celebrated his victory at the Louv Museum right in front of the glass pyramid composed of 666 pieces with what looks like the lit up eyes watching over him from the top mr breast Beast mr beast mr beast is he the Antichrist now I'm pretty sure this started out as a 4chan [ __ ] post but there are a lot of people that genuinely believe he's the Antichrist so let's look at the evidence and who knows maybe by the end of it you'll be a Mr beast truther yourself first of all take Mr beast's real name Jimmy Donaldson and replace all of the letters with Antichrist pretty damning evidence so far but let's continue it all started with this green text on 4chan from 2020 this YouTuber seems to be a humble fellow yet inside he is a ravenous wolf this guy will be a billionaire in the next 2 years his stunts will start to get bigger and more expensive he will make fire come down from heaven with some technology [ __ ] and people will wonder after the beast he is not the beast from the sea he is the beast from the land he will be vice president of the USA in 2030 people will love him because he helps homeless people which is a red herring that distracts people from who he really is so this guy is equating Mr beast with the false prophet from Revelation and he goes on to support his point by quoting a few lines from Revelation that you know we've already seen a few times by now so I won't rehash them now one thing that made me curious is when this guy said that Mr beast will be vice president by 2030 but he won't even be old enough to run by that time and then I realized like wow why am I looking so deep into this stupid 4chan post anyways this theory stayed on 4chan for the most part until Mr beast posted this video and this video worked curing a thousand people's blindness it's going to be crazy i had night blindness i couldn't see i can't just deal with it life moment of truth well you are pretty angry i am the spawn of Satan worship me this video opened the floodgates for skitso Twitter he is literally the antichrist he's performing our society's equivalent of miracles through these excessive acts of faux generosity and is garnering everybody's undivided love and admiration in doing so he will start subverting Christ's teachings next and preaching selfish action another Twitter user said "Tell me again about how the man who goes by Mr beast and performs miracles isn't the Antichrist." And uh the last tweet I wanted to look at is this one the Book of Revelation says that the beast of the Antichrist is like a leopard in that one of its heads is as if it were wounded and healed this is Mr beast logo okay honestly I'm I'm starting to get a little bit more on board okay this is starting to become slightly unironic okay and even my favorite sex trafficker Andre Taint got in on this theory so Mr beast's true friend he's been caught talking to kids trying to children surprise surprise didn't see that one coming you know what's most amazing to me about this whole scenario that nobody seems to point out this guy's name mr beast they think that's a bit of a strange name i'm sure I could Google it and there'd be some [ __ ] reason why he's called Mr beast i'm sure they call for some stupid story that when he was a kid he had a figurine called Beast and then when he grew up he wanted to be a figurine someing garbage why would the largest YouTube channel with an affinity towards children in the world be named after the beast from the devil now guys I don't want to go too hard on Mr beast because I'm hoping that one day he'll perform the miracle of curing me of my six figure gambling and child support debt so I'm going to go ahead and say Mr beast is not the antichrist probably now if I've learned anything over the multiple hours of research I've done for this video it's this my fellow Christians especially the evangelicals are too focused on trying to find the antichrist when they should be focused on finding Christ you know instead of praying and reading the Bible and helping the needy a lot of people are more focused on trying to identify people they don't like with the spawn of Satan which I think is kind of cringe that being said it's definitely Elon [Music]
