Assyrian Anti-Christ?
#1
I found this article very interesting:

http://www.pawcreek.org/articles/pna/Geo...ophecy.htm

Can anyone fill me in here on how it has been determined that the Anti-Christ will be an Assyrian? <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->

We'll Sadam back in his old days was trying to bring back Iraq as a kind of neo-Babylon. As far identifying with its former history etc. And assyria and bablon were some types of the anti-christ kingdom.


But I could not imagine any kind of anti-Christ coming out of the literal Assyrian people. They are just way to much of a persecuted minority for that to happen.


But I wouldn't take these Jehovah's witness type sites seriously.

Shlama Akhi Paul,

This is not a modern view apparently. Let me give you a quote from this 'lengthy but nice' webpage I found. <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->

{QUOTE}A Latin church father, Lactantius (c. 250-330 AD), clearly expected the Beast [antichrist] to arise in Syria: “Another king shall arise out of Syria, born from an evil spirit...and he will constitute and call himself God, and will order himself to be worshipped as the Son of God, and power will be given him to do signs and wonders. Then he will attempt to destroy the temple of God and persecute the righteous people; and there will be distress and tribulation such as there never has been since the beginning of the world” (Divine Institutes, Book 7, ch. 17). {END OF QUOTE}

Here's the webpage... <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mindspring.com/~anthonybuzzard/assyrian.htm">http://www.mindspring.com/~anthonybuzzard/assyrian.htm</a><!-- m -->

Finis Jennings Dake was one who touted an Assyrian Antichrist. Frank Caw interprets the 'little horn' of Daniel as a tiny, new country started within Lebanon. This guy has done a lot of homework apparently. <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->

Hope I haven't added to your confusion. Just trying to be like Jack Webb of Dragnet when he said to an overtalkative, frenzied woman that was being interviewed "Just the facts, ma'am!" <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->
