Who is the False Prophet?
- Thread starter Kathi
- Start date
There are two “Little horns” discussed in scripture. The little horn in Daniel 7 is the man of sin, and the second is the little horn of Daniel 8 which is the false prophet. Both are merely minions of their father Satan.
Dan 7:8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
This will be a man conquering as a political leader. "Behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things."
Dan 8:9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.
This will be a false religious leader especially against the pleasant land Jerusalem.

the enemy copies or counterfeits what is real , naturally, to deceive people. if it didn't look 'real', or to the peoples expectations, they wouldn't go after it.
we don't "have" "the trinity". as in we don't "have" "God" like in a box or creed or doctrine.
and whether or not the enemy will show up as 2 or as 3 or as more ,(already many anti-christs are among us is written in some place in the NT, and have been for centuries)
and much is written in Scripture about it and has been the subject of much
debate since the first century.
The deceiver will be accepted by most gentiles(and Jews), and will be lifted up by the whole world(churches and all), as "great",
and it is unlikely many will ever realize it,
as far removed as the gentiles are today from the beginning body of Christ(life,description,holiness,power,testimony), it is very awkward at best to see the work of God among the gentiles in a way in line with the NT; without even considering the OT. it is possible that the times of the gentiles is closed, or will be soon, I just don't know; but the Jews are more and more returning both to the country Israel and to the Master Yeshua the Messiah. oh what a glorious day it will be when they all cry out "blessed is He Who comes in the Name Adonai!" LIFE!
Can you define exactly what you mean with this statement?

Can you "have" a cloud in a suitcase, or a wind in a back pack. Can 'God' be set up on a dresser or hung up on a wall, or stood up by the pulpit in church ? Can you gather 12 pounds of "breath" and carry it around with you,
or a sprinkling of butterflies ?
Can leviathans watery home be measured, or a mountain compared with a load of bread.
So to Yhwh cannot be boxed in so many words or titles or doctrines of man. No man has described Him, no one can restrain Him or measure any detail of Him, or even see what "Spirit" is.
Oh, we can know Him as He permits. But He may have/or/ has conditions , Jesus told His disciples a few conditions, and many of them walked away because of the conditions.
And His disciples, then and now, have been few and rare in the population of the world, the world which has propagated a lot of false pictures and idols of God , which has affected many of the apparently saved in Christ Jesus - look how many different pictures of Jesus are given just in this one forum; and how many different views or perspectives are presented.
So few, not many, find the way to life. It is hard and through "tribulation" as someone pointed out today on the forum somewhere.
Stick with what Scripture says, simply, purely, and truthfully, without anything added or taken away - it makes an amazing difference !
(And Yhwh LOVES and DELIGHTS in His people when they do! (Malachi) )
or, in fewer words - we just cannot see (with our eyes) spirit or life or essence or God/Yhwh,
..............................or even describe any aspect except as He has described Himself,
..............................and finally we don't "have Him" --- if anything,and hopefully, He "has us" .

Can I possibly simplify the question?
Is our Father God?
Is Jesus God?
Is the Holy Spirit God?
Pick me ....pick me....can I answer?
Yes,God our Father is God,Yes Jesus Christ the Son is God,Yes,the Holy Spirit is God.:amen but not only was Jesus the Son of God, but He is God also, and He was called Emmanuel.Pick me ....pick me....can I answer?
Yes,Jesus is God.Such is the Trinity.Do you want to us the word "was"?
Very true sister, Jesus is still with us.

it could be some sort of religious leader or movement, also could be a symbol /metaphor of something we are very familiar with

Thats a gross oversimplification for a book heavy on symbology.

Apparently, you don't agree with Rev. 13:18.
