I'll have to reread revelations, but I'm fairly certain it never gets to the nitty gritty detail of the religion of choice of the antichrist. Unless I've misunderstood your point? |
The Anti-Christ will indeed try to repeat the resurrection of Jesus. This will be the end of him. He will be deemed as the 1st coming of Christ to those who didn't think Jesus was such, He will be fullfilling the prophecy of the Jewish people. THEN Jesus will show up. The ANti-Christ will rule the world in a socialist regime. I really can't see the US accepting such a government, unless of course there is a liberal in the white house pushing such a regime.
Of course, this is assuming it's coming in the near future.
