Antichrist.... End....
The spirit of the Antichrist has been in the world since Jesus Christ
accomplished of His act of Salvation. He has constantly attempted
to undermine His act, he has always and forever fought Jesus'
followers, he has always and forever driven people into
heartlessness, thus he has actively opposed Christ's will and
teaching on earth, partly by means of spiritually confusing people's
thoughts and partly, in human appearance, clothed in a gown of
knowledge and intelligence.
The teaching of Jesus Christ was opposed by a human teaching at
all times which aimed to weaken it, thus it was antichristian, and
this has always been Satan's work, the work of forces from below
which intended to cause people's desertion from God or to obstruct
their way to Him. And this antichristian activity is steadily on the
increase and will be blatantly self-evident before the end....
Satan himself will be active on earth in human form, the
Antichrist in person, whose activity will be extremely ominous for
the whole of the human race. For he will initiate laws which aim to
eradicate spiritually-minded thoughts, which will prevent all
spiritual endeavour and intend to entirely secularize people. And
this will be the last work of the one who fights against God, for he
will be transgressing the limit of his authority, which is relentlessly
punished by God....
The change of worldly events will be rapid, extensive worldly
changes will occur in short succession
and a ruling power will come to the fore by wanting to direct the
state of affairs of all nations and, instead of order, will cause utter
disorder. For his regulations will first and foremost apply to the
suppression of all faith.
He will find many supporters on earth, and that will be the sign for
the End. For people won't resist it but will almost unanimously
profess and celebrate him as a hero and victor whose goal they
acknowledge and consequently also support.
And this will be the start of the most difficult time for believers. It
will seem incomprehensible to them what is going on in the world,
it will seem incomprehensible to them that God's love and patience
allow His most sacred name to be slandered and ridiculed and Jesus
Christ's followers to be ostracized and pursued in a most brutal
way. Yet they penetrate the truth of the divine Word ever more,
which has predicted all this, and thus they also faithfully commit
themselves to God's guidance.
The Antichrist rages in a most frightening way, he dazzles people by
the actions he implements with support of strength from below....
Satan himself works through him as the opposing spirit of the One
Who works in the living creations of love and faith, in people, who
love God above all else and firmly believe in Him and thus have to
suffer great adversities due to God's opponent.
People will pay homage to him, they will erect altars, they will
proclaim him as the Messiah bringing salvation to them, for he will
achieve feats which will impress people, yet they will not be works
of love but mere activities of arrogance and craving for power.
He will work as a human being, try to explain his strength as
human strength and oppose and deny everything that is divine,
that points to and testifies of God. And his willpower will be rock
hard.... He will give orders, and anyone resisting his command will
be destroyed by him....
He will seek to prohibit all teachings of Christ, all knowledge of Him
and His act of Salvation, he will try to drag everything through the
mud and regally reward those who assist him in his quest against
Christ, just as he, full of hatred, will also take actions against His
followers....
The Antichrist's stature will be recognisable by its external good
looks, by his physical strength.... for Satan conceals himself so as
not to be recognised for who he is. And his extraordinary abilities
