Evangelical Christians Will Be the First to Follow the Antichrist

 For years, Evangelical Christians have railed against the cashless society, the overbearing potential of tech to prevent people from buying or selling unless they go along with the antichrist (See Revelation 13).  And yet the first time someone seizes control of government computer systems and threatens companies that unless they use X’s forthcoming payment platform he will put them out of business by criminalizing them, thereby preventing they and their customers from buying and selling, these same Evangelical Christians are like, great.  No problem.  So long as trans people are restricted we don’t care.

 

I do not believe Trump or Musk are the antichrist.  I have said this from 2016.  But I have also said I believe God gives us dress rehearsals so we can learn how we would react when the antichrist shows up.  I have long maintained that Evangelical Christians will be the first to follow the antichrist when he comes.  I am a Seventh-day Adventist.  During World War II, the German branch of the SDA church cooperated and collaborated with Nazi Germany, something the church regrets today.  The church even went so far as to tell the Nazis of an offshoot movement which was subsequently persecuted by Hitler. 

 

The reason why the German SDA church did this is interesting.  The main reason was because they felt prophecy did not show Hitler to be a problem to worry about.  But what the church forgot is that before prophecy, there is love expressed so beautifully by Christ in his Golden rule.  They forgot that the apostle Paul said:  “And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.” (1 Corinthians 13:2).

 

Although I do not believe Trump is the antichrist, when someone talks like the antichrist, and acts like the antichrist, and exhibits the lawlessness which the bible specifically attributes to the antichrist, those who are deceived by the dress rehearsal antichrist are deceived because they forget that love is, and always has been, the founding and fundamental and central pillar of the teachings of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

 

Note:  I was swept up by David Koresh.  I fell under his spell precisely because I did not realize what I have written here so I speak from experience.  I forgot Christ’s Golden rule.  I was able to get out of the cult specifically because one day I awoke and remembered Christ’s Golden rule and 1 Corinthians 13:2.  So understand I do not look down upon Evangelical Christians.  I am a sinner attempting to help fellow sinners not to make the same mistake I made.
