A speaker argues that contemporary Islam fulfills biblical end-times prophecies, citing Jesus's warnings in John 16 and mapping Ezekiel 38's ancient nations to modern Islamic-majority countries. He claims the Qur'an uniquely prescribes beheading infidels and that Islam's Mahdi mirrors the biblical Antichrist who will establish a one-world state and rule seven years.
It is really, I'll be honest, it's really hard for me if I'm trying to connect dots. It's hard for me not to at least wonder if some of these things correspond with the rise of global Islam. I just need to talk about this real quick. And if you think I'm nuts, just test what I say against the word in the next 30 seconds. So check this out. In John 16, Jesus says at the end, watch, at the end, he says, the time is coming when they will kill you and think they are offering service to God. Amen. That's what Jesus said. Now, what we've been doing in the American church for the last 30 years is we've been focusing on secular progressivism. Hey man, atheism, big problem. Secularism, problem. But watch this. According to Jesus, the final boss, like Bowser— I don't know where that came from— the final boss is not going to be in the end, it's not going to be secularism. It will— Jesus said it— it will be another religion that in that religion they will kill Christians. And when they kill Christians, they will think they're doing something holy. Amen. and pleasing God. Let's go a layer deeper. If you fast forward to Revelation chapter 20, John is given a prophetic vision of the throne. Watch what he sees. I'm gonna have you say a word out loud. He sees in the end the souls of those who had been what? Who had been? Martyred. Because they refused to worship the beast. I'll just simply point this out. There is only one world religion whose religion specifically prescribes beheading as the way to, quote, kill infidels. There is only one religion. The Quran specifically calls it striking necks. That's the language it uses. So I will simply point that out to you. That's interesting. Now let me go one layer deeper, and this is where I'm gonna freak you out a little bit more. So if you start studying what's Islamic eschatology— eschatology is a big theological word. Eschaton is the Greek word that means last or end. Ology means study of. So when I say eschatology, it means study of the end. If you study Islamic eschatology, their view of the end times, here's what they believe will happen. happening. They believe that there will be a messianic prophetic figure that they call the Mahdi. The Mahdi will come, and he's a messianic leader that will usher in the Islamic end times events that will result in the entire world becoming a one-world Islamic nation-state. Now, what I'm gonna do right here is I'm gonna just read to you the things that they believe the Mahdi will do. And if you are a Bible-aware Christian, as I read these, every little red light is going to start flashing in your head, and you're You'll see why. This is what they believe about him. He will emerge as a charismatic messianic world leader during global crisis— chaos. He will take control of the world and destroy everyone who resists him. He will invade many nations. He will rule and reign for 7 years. He will broker a 7-year peace treaty with the Jews. He will conquer Israel and massacre the Jews. He will establish an Islamic one-world government headquartered in Jerusalem. He will establish Islam as the only acceptable worldwide religion. He— watch this— He will come on a white horse with supernatural powers doing signs and wonders. This is what they believe. He will be assisted by a powerful prophet. Now, if that sounds familiar, it's because it is a precise description of the biblical Antichrist. The Islamic Mahdi is the biblical Antichrist. We know the rider on the white horse in Revelation 6 is the Antichrist. They use that verse to describe their mighty. Now I'm going to go one layer deeper and then I'm going to shut her down. Okay? If you go later, homework, and you read Ezekiel 38, almost every theologian believes Ezekiel 38 is an eschatological, an end times prophecy about what will happen right before Jesus returns. It describes— don't give me keys yet. Just stay with me. Don't, don't do it yet. It describes a group of nations aligning against Israel to attack Israel. And then the moment they do that, Jesus is going to crack the skies and do some awesome I'll talk about it in a second. Now here's the nations that Ezekiel 38 describes in their— in that time's language: Gog, Magog, Meshech, Tubal, Persia, Cush, Put, Gomer, and something called Beth-Torimah. But those were the names of the nation in the era when Ezekiel wrote. What are the names of those nations, those geographic regions today? What are the nations that correspond? Well, here's what they are: Russia, Turkey, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Turkey, and Turkey. Can I point something out to you? Even though that was written 1,200 years before the birth of Islam, every single one of those nations except one is an Islamic nation. The only one that's not is Russia. And guess what the fastest growing religion is in Russia? Islam.
