1Jn 2:27  But the ANOINTING which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. 
 
ANOINTING: G5545, chrisma, khris'-mah
From G5548; an unguent or smearing, that is, (figuratively) the special endowment (“chrism”) of the Holy Spirit: - anointing, unction.
 
God’s anointing is simply a WITNESS to your spirit. You just KNOW whether something is right or wrong, the truth or a lie. So many times I have seen and heard people peddling absolute and unadulterated horseshit! Am I being too frank? I am not talking about “Honest Abe” the used car salesmen, or some guy making “deals” from the trunk of his car, I’m talking about people who are claiming to be “prophets”, “evangelists”, and “ministers” of the gospel. Naïve people continue to strain at gnats, while at the same time swallowing camels whole. These false teachers are literally leading countless numbers of people straight to hell!
 
Mat 24:4  And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 
Mat 24:5  For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 
 
Jesus also warned us that in these last days, a deceiver would appear that was going to be so convincing that if it were possible, he would deceive even the very elect!
 
Mat 24:23  Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 
Mat 24:24  For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 
Mat 24:25  Behold, I have told you before. 
 
Every Christian MUST have God’s anointing. The antichrist is not just going to be some smooth talker, or a great orator, he is going to be a miracle worker par excellence! The whole world is about to enter into THE BATTLE OF THE AGES! It is not going to be a normal battle. Satan is going to pull out all the stops AND God is also going to pull out all the stops. WE ARE ALL ABOUT TO BE PULLED INTO THE SUPERNATURAL REALM!
 
I was listening to two Baptist teachers on the radio and one of their listeners had written into their program and asked them about God’s “anointing”. It was pretty obvious that they did not have a clue about God’s anointing. Most of their discussion appeared to be a chance to put down Pentecostals’ “emotionalism”. They began by saying that Pentecostals believe that God’s anointing is an emotional feeling.
 
I was raised a Pentecostal, and I will admit that Pentecostals tend to be a lot more emotional than most Baptists. Unfortunately, many modern Pentecostal services are conforming more and more to the average dry Baptist service, and not the other way around. However, these Baptist teachers on the radio were mistaking the “evidence” of God’s anointing with the actual anointing.
 
I do not have anything against Baptists, or any other Christian sect for that matter. However, the problem with most Christian sects is that they all eventually box themselves into theological dead ends (become spiritually dead)…and that includes many Pentecostal sects.
 
I believe that God’s “anointing” is truly the dividing line between walking in darkness and walking in the light of God’s Word. God’s anointing is the difference between being intimate with God or being a stranger to God. God’s anointing is the difference between victory and defeat. God’s anointing is the difference between life and death. You can be a born again Bible believing Christian and still be walking in darkness. Let me attempt to explain, and hopefully we will see what we are missing.
 
Suppose you were lost and walking in a very dark night. Then suppose you were found by somebody with a bright oil lamp, and they led you to a road and told you if you follow that road, you would eventually arrive at your destination. Now, also suppose that the person gave you an oil lamp and a little bit of their oil, and they warned you that there are many side streets and roads that branch out from the main road, but if you stayed on the main road you would be safe.
 
I suspect that if you are like most people, you would want to stick as close as possible with the person with the bright lamp and oil. The person with the bright lamp may lead you quite a distance down the road to your destination. Unfortunately, eventually the person with the bright lamp and oil is no longer available to guide everyone down that dark road. Everybody has their own assignments and tasks from God. WE ALL NEED OUR OWN OIL SUPPLY!
 
Now suppose the oil in your lamp has run out and you are almost too scared to move, but you are with a large group of other lost people that were also found by the man with the bright lamp. There is one person in your group who also does not have any oil, but this “leader” is very confident that they know the way to your destination and they will not get lost. Therefore, everybody decides to link hands and follow the confident fellow.
 
After a long journey, your group meets another person with a lamp and a good supply of oil. The person with the lamp and oil explains that your group has taken a side street and your group is way off the main road, but the confident fellow leading your group strongly disagrees. A few of your group debate whether you should follow the man with the lamp and oil, but the leader of your group, and a few of his close associates, are adamant that there is safety in numbers. The leader asks, “How can so many people be going in the wrong direction?”
 
The person with the lamp and oil asks, “How can you work in the dark?” Then they finally shrug their shoulders and simply walk away from the group allowing them to continue wandering lost in the dark.
 
Mat 15:14  Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. 
 
As a matter of fact, when we read about the early Baptist worship services, they bear a striking resemblance to the early Pentecostal worship services:
 
Baptists required complete spontaneity in worship, so that individuals could respond to God as the Spirit might lead them at any moment. This made Baptist worship somewhat unpredictable, for at any moment a worshiper might be given a doctrine, an exhortation, or a psalm to share with the group. Baptist resistance to set forms of worship in the Prayer Book helps explain their freewheeling style. Baptists insisted that they could not pray out of a book but that prayer and praise must come directly "from the hart." http://www.pastortim.org/baptistbeacon/2000/seventeenth-century-baptists-tim-binion.htm
 
I have always liked to read history books, including books about different Christian movements throughout history. One thing I have noticed over and over again is that new movements in the Church are nearly always a reaction to the perceived stale and uninspired Church establishment. I will also dare to say that ALL new Christian movements are from the laity of the Church and not from the ecclesiastical authorities.
 
It also appears that the leadership of God’s “last” anointing always resist any “new” anointing from God. Not only do all new moves of God usually begin with the laity, but they are more often than not fiercely opposed by the established religious authorities. Why would Church history be any different from when Jesus was beginning His new movement?
 
Mat 21:23  And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
 
Isn’t it interesting that Jesus did not attend any rabbinical school, nor did He serve an apprenticeship under a famous rabbi. Why?
 
Joh 7:14  Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. 
Joh 7:15  And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? 
Joh 7:16  Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. 
 
The world always looks at a person’s family and their background: Do they have family money? Are their parent’s important people? Did they go to the right schools? Do they know the right people? Do they support the status quo?
 
God on the other hand, seems to favor plucking unimportant people from complete obscurity, and then using them to turn the world upside down… Jesus was not an exception to the rule! Jesus did not need to be taught by anybody because He had God’s anointing. He had direct access to the Father. If you have God’s anointing… you also have direct access to the Father!
 
1Jn 2:27  But the ANOINTING which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. 
 
I am not saying that once you have the anointing, you can run off and start your own religion or totally disregard fundamental Church doctrine. Starting a new religion is something people WITHOUT God’s anointing tend to do. There are some fundamental Christian truths that are beyond dispute: 1) Jesus Christ is God incarnate. 2) Jesus Christ died for all our sins! 3) Jesus Christ rose from the dead on the third day! 4) Jesus Christ is physically coming back to the earth. HALLELUJAH! If you can believe and confess these fundamental truths, you are saved. If you cannot believe and confess these fundamental truths, then you are lost and do not have God’s anointing…I don’t care how confident you are, or how good you might feel about yourself.
 
We are all born into the middle of a spiritual battleground. The battle is raging all around us and it is becoming more and more intense every day, and it will continue to increase in intensity as the Day of the Lord draws ever nearer. You may memorize large portions of the Bible; therefore, you will possess a dangerous spiritual weapon. However, if you do not have God’s anointing, it is like going onto a battlefield with a bazooka, and then wearing a blindfold over your eyes.
 
1Co 9:24  You know that in a race all the runners run, but only one runner gets the prize. So run like that. Run to win!
1Co 9:25  All who compete in the games use strict training. They do this so that they can win a prize--one that doesn't last. But our prize is one that will last forever.
1Co 9:26  So I run like someone who has a goal. I fight like a boxer who is hitting something, not just the air. Easy-to-read version.
 
If you ever hope to make significant spiritual progress and to be successful in your spiritual battles, you must have revelation and direction from God… you MUST have God’s anointing! It is super important that you have the sword of the spirit (God’s Word), but it is just as important to know who and where your enemy is located, otherwise you are playing a very dangerous spiritual game of blind-man’s bluff.
 
We are all made up of a spirit, soul and body. Just like the Temple in Jerusalem was made up of the Holy of Holies, the Holy Place, and the Outer Court. When God took up residence in the temple, he first arrived in the Holy of Holies and then His presence filled the whole temple.
 
1Ki 8:10  And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD, 
1Ki 8:11  So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD. 
 
There are three steps to a Christian’s “sanctification”. When we first receive salvation, God has entered into our spirit. Next, when we are baptized in the Holy Spirit, God has entered into our soul (mind)…and we begin to receive “revelation”. Finally, the Holy Spirit begins to reveal Himself with signs and wonders…and we begin to experience “manifestation”.
 
1Co 12:7  But the MANIFESTATION of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 
1Co 12:8  For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 
1Co 12:9  To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 
1Co 12:10  To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 
 
MANIFESTATION: G5321, phanerōsis, fan-er'-o-sis
From G5319; exhibition, that is, (figuratively) expression, (by extension) a bestowment: - manifestation.
 
With due respect to Catholic priests, you need a lot more than a cross and some holy water if you plan on contending with demonic spirits. Also, when the Holy Spirit begins to actually manifest with miracles during a service, people won’t be looking at their watches and worrying about missing their favorite football team on the television. This is why Pentecostal and Charismatic Churches continue to grow, while the old line Catholic and Protestant Churches are dying.
 
One word of warning, just because a Church has “Pentecostal” or “Charismatic” in their name does not necessarily mean they actually are Pentecostal or Charismatic. I have been to “Pentecostal” Churches where they would show you the door if the Holy Spirit actually manifested during a service. However, I believe your best chance of actually growing and maturing is to find an actual “Pentecostal” Church…and to be baptized in the Holy Spirit with evidence of speaking in tongues.
 
I have read articles by people, who claim that they speak in tongues but that it never made any difference in their Christian growth. There are even people who speak in tongues that have completely fallen away from Christ. I really don’t know what to make of them. I suspect, like Judas Iscariot, there is some secret sin that they have allowed to overcome them (i.e. lust, greed, pride, etc., etc.). Don’t allow one bad apple to scare you away from enjoying the fruit from the rest of the orchard!
 
Also, Christian growth is often a long, slow process. It usually takes far longer to mature into a victorious Christian than we ever imagined possible, but I suspect it is because we need much more pruning by God than we ever imagined possible.
 
Jesus put a whole lot of emphasis on seeking the Holy Spirit. This should illustrate that receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit is not something that happens automatically when you are first saved. When Jesus told us to seek and keep seeking, and to ask and keep asking, and to knock and keep knocking, He was not talking about asking for a new jet airplane, or a new Mercedes Benz, or a mansion on Lake Como…Jesus was talking about seeking the baptism of the Holy Spirit!
 
Luk 11:9  And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 
Luk 11:10  For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 
Luk 11:11  If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? 
Luk 11:12  Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 
Luk 11:13  If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? 
 
Do not miss out on receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, He is your right and privilege as a child of the Living God…but you must seek Him until He be found.
 
Mat 13:44  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. 
Mat 13:45  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: 
Mat 13:46  Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

He will be from the progeny of the Prophet and descendant of Fatima  رضي الله عنها . Umm Salama رضي الله عنها reported: I heard the Prophet of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم  saying, "The Mahdi will appear from Itrati (my family or progeny), from the descendants of Fatima." (Abu Dawud, Ibn Maja, Al-Haakim, Al-Albany)


The Hashemite dynasty of Jordan claims to be direct descendants of the Muslim prophet Muhammad, through his daughter Fatima. This is important because Muhammad predicted that the “Mahdi”, or the “Guided One”, would be directly descended from him according to his revelation from Allah.

I have come to believe that the “Mahdi” of Islam is the man referred to as the “Beast” in the Book of Revelation or the “man of sin” in 2 Thess. 2:3. I wrote about the “Signs of the Mahdi” in a previous blog: http://www.motsog.com/fundamentals/signs-of-the-mahdi


There is also an excellent book I would also recommend titled - The Islamic Antichrist by Joel Richardson:
 https://www.amazon.com/Islamic-Antichrist-Shocking-Truth-Nature-ebook/dp/B01E4CLT5Y/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1511979328&sr=1-1&keywords=the+islamic+antichrist


Hashemite kings ruled over Mecca, the birthplace of Muhammad and the center of Islam, for well over seven hundred (700) years. Their rule in Mecca ended in 1924, when Mecca was conquered by ibn Saud, the first king and founder of Saudi Arabia.


I was talking to my sister about the current conflict brewing between Saudi Arabia and Iran when the idea flashed into my mind that, “perhaps the antichrist will be from the Hashemite Dynasty, after all they do claim to be direct descendants of Muhammad”. So I started doing a little research!


The current Jordanian dynasty was founded by Sharif Hussein ibn Ali, who was appointed as Sharif and Emir of Mecca by Sultan Abdul Hamid II in 1908, then in 1916 he proclaimed himself King (Caliph) of the Arab Lands (but he was only recognized as King of the Hejaz) after initiating the Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Empire. His sons “Abdullah” and “Faisal” respectively assumed the thrones of Jordan and Iraq in 1921. The Hashemite dynasty is the oldest ruling dynasty in the Islamic World, and the second-oldest in the world.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashemites


If you have ever watched the movie, “Lawrence of Arabia”, King Faisal was played by the actor Sir Alec Guinness. King Faisal was at one time the ruler of Syria and the King of Iraq. He died suddenly at the age of forty-eight (48) under mysterious circumstances. His son, King Ghazi, died in a motorcar accident at the age of 26. In 1958, during a military coup d’etat, his grandson, King Faisal II, was executed and the Hashemite Dynasty in Iraq came to an end. However, the Hashemite Dynasty descending from King Faisal’s older brother, King Abdullah, still rules over the Kingdom of Jordan.


We know that bloodlines are important to God because genealogies, and prophecy connected to those genealogies, are specifically mentioned in in the Old and New Testaments. I also believe that bloodlines are important to Satan as well. In the Bible, “familiar spirits” are mentioned.
Lev 19:31  Regard not them that have FAMILIAR SPIRITS, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God. 
 
FAMILIAR SPIRITS: H178, 'ôb, obe
From the same as H1 (apparently through the idea of prattling a father’s name); properly a mumble, that is, a water skin (from its hollow sound); hence a necromancer (ventriloquist, as from a jar): - bottle, familiar spirit.
 
The familiar spirit is joined to a “family” and it is passed down from generation to generation. Often times it was believed by ancient peoples that the familiar spirit, or family ghost, was a powerful ancestor that watched over their family. However, the Bible is very clear that these supposedly benign or beneficial spirits are actually demonic entities that seek to do us only harm.

 
People who contact and communicate with supposed “dead” people are called necromancers, wizards, or witches in the Bible. The penalty for consorting with demons in the Old Testament was death:
 
Exo 22:18  Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. 

 
I briefly mention familiar spirits because I believe Muhammad was possessed by a demonic principality that compelled him to violently spread his “new” religion of Islam throughout the Arab peninsula. I go into more detail about Muhammad’s demonic possession in my blog article titled “Muhammad”. http://www.motsog.com/fundamentals/muhammad

 
In the book “Mohammed” by H.E.E. Hayes, we are given an excellent description of Muhammad’s character. Everything, and everyone, was subject to Muhammad’s overriding goals of catering to “his” every carnal desire, and secondly, people needed to constantly re-enforce his conceited self-identification as the “last prophet of Allah”. The following description of Muhammad will also likely perfectly describe the antichrist when he arrives on the scene:
 
When he was at the zenith of his power, "revelation" became merely an instrument of self-glorification, licensing him in every whim and fancy, because it gave him, as the prophet of God, exemption from all law and order. MOHAMMED by H.E.E. HAYES.


The stark difference between Christianity and Islam is illustrated by their two opposing definitions of the afterlife: Christianity presupposes an afterlife where the saints of God are no longer bound or controlled by their carnal natures; while paradise, as described by Muhammad, appears to be a continual indulgence of every imaginable sensual appetite throughout eternity.


Muhammad had very few converts until he received his “revelation” from Allah that Muslims could rob, rape, and murder unbelievers with impunity. Then followers began to flock to his banners in larger and larger numbers. The Bible indicates that the antichrist will employ the same doctrine and methodology, and he will likely enjoy the same popularity among his followers.


Dan. 11:24 When people feel secure, he will invade the richest parts of the provinces and do something that none of his predecessors ever did. He will distribute loot and wealth to his followers. He will invent new ways of attacking fortifications. But this will last only for a little while. God’s Word Bible.


Satan is a distorted caricature of God because he so badly wants to be God. Therefore, according to the Book of Revelation, Satan manifests himself to the world as a perverted unholy trinity represented by the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet.


It stands to reason that Satan would prepare a counterfeit religion with prophecies about the arrival of his son just like the Books of the Old Testament contain prophecies about the arrival of the Son of God…and as a matter of fact Satan does have his own prophecies!


Abdullah. Ibn Masood reported that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Even if there remains only a day before the World ends, the almighty Allah will greatly prolong that day to send a man from me (my progeny), from members of my House (family). His name will be similar to my name and his father's name similar to my father's name. He will fill the Earth with equity (fairness) and justice, as it (previously) was filled with oppression and injustice." (Abu Dawud)


Not only will the Mahdi be a direct descendant from Muhammad bin Abdullah, the prophet of Islam, but according to Muhammad, the Mahdi’s name will be similar to Muhammad’s name, and the Mahdi's father’s name will be similar to Muhammad’s father’s name. Muhammad’s name according to Arabic nomenclature was followed by “bin” (son of) Abdullah; therefore, we can expect according to Muslim eschatology that the Mahdi’s name will also be Muhammad bin Abdullah. There are only a couple distant, older relatives named Muhammad in the Jordanian Hashemite dynasty.  This is fairly unusual because Muhammad is probably the most popular name in Islamic families. The crown prince of Jordan is named “Hussein” and his younger brother is named “Hashem”.


Interestingly, the name “Hussein” was originated by Muhammad according to al-Qarashi, Baqir Sharif (2007). The life of Imam Husain.

This name was not used in the pre-Islamic period,[3] and is recorded to have been first used by the Islamic prophet Muhammad when he named his grandson Hussein ibn Ali, saying he had been commanded to do so by Allah through the archangel Gabriel.[3]  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hussein
 
Hussein ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhammad is very, very important in the history of Islam. The murder of Muhammad’s grandson, Hussein ibn Ali, caused the great political and religious divide between the Sunni Muslim branch and the Shia Muslim branch of Islam . Ethnic Arabs are mostly Sunni and the Persians, or Iranians, are mostly Shia. The Shia believe that ONLY a direct descendant of Muhammad can be the true Caliph of all Muslims. The name “Hussein” is far more popular among Shia Persians than it is among Sunni Arabs.
 
When Muhammad prophecied that the Mahdi would have “his” name, could he have been speaking about “Hussein”, the name that was revealed to him by Allah through the angel Gabriel? Could he have been speaking about his grandson’s name instead of his given name? Let’s take a closer look at the Crown Prince of Jordan, “Hussein bin Abdullah”.
 
Crown Prince Hussein bin Abdullah is the next in line to be the King of Jordan when his Father dies. He was born on June 28, 1994, and is only twenty-three years old, but he still has an impressive resume’. He graduated from Georgetown University, a university located in Washington D.C. in 2016, and he graduated from the British Army’s Royal Military Academy of “Sandhurst” in 2017.
 
Dan 11:37  "That northern king will not care about the gods his ancestors worshiped. He will not care about the gods women worship. He will not care about any god. Instead, he will praise himself and make himself more important than any god.
Dan 11:38  The northern king will not worship any god, but he will worship power. Power and strength will be his god. His ancestors didn't love power as he does. He will honor the god of power with gold and silver, expensive jewels, and gifts. Easy-to-Read-Version.
 
Prince Hussein is the youngest person ever to chair a United Nation’s Security Council session. On September 21, 2017, Prince Hussein gave a speech dealing with the Arab refugee problem before the U.N. General Assembly. Therefore, we can safely assume that he has close ties with the “World Governing Organization”. It is also interesting that September 21, 2017 coincides with the Hebrew New Year, and the Jewish Holy Day of “Rosh Hashanah”. According to Jewish tradition, it is the day that God created Adam and Eve. It is also called the “Feast of Trumpets” because it is celebrated by blowing the “shofar”, or rams horn. It is the day that Abraham bound his son Isaac to an altar of sacrifice, but Isaac was delivered because God provided a ram as a sacrificial substitute.
 
It appears that the antichrist will have very small beginnings, but he will gradually increase his power through deception.
 
Dan 11:23  By making treaties, he will deceive other nations, and he will grow stronger and stronger, even though he rules only a small nation. Good News Bible.
 
I believe this prophecy may apply to the country of Jordan because its size and power makes it fairly insignificant on the world stage, but it occupies a unique position in the Middle East. In 1994, a peace treaty between Israel and Jordan allowed Jordanian security forces to act as guardians of the Muslim and Christian Holy Sites within the City of Jerusalem. Just recently, Jerusalem was recognized by President Donald Trump as the capital of Israel. According to Bible prophecy, Jerusalem is the epicenter of end time events, it is the city where the antichrist will proclaim himself to be God.
 
Mar 13:14  But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: 
 
According to Muslim eschatology, “the WHOLE community (of Muslims) will agree on each of them (Muslim rulers or Caliphate).” All Muslims must agree on the same Caliph, but this has been impossible since the Sunni and Shia political split that occurred after the murder of Muhammad’s grandson, Hussein bin Ali. However, it is very possible that both the Sunni and the Shia Muslims would both agree to follow a Caliph that was a member of the Hashemite Dynasty, because he would be a direct descendant of Muhammad.
 
Narrated by Jabir bin Samura: I heard the Prophet  صلى الله عليه وسلم saying, "There will be twelve Muslim rulers (who will rule all the Islamic world)." He then said a sentence which I did not hear. My father said, "All of them (those rulers) will be from Quraish." (Sahih Al-Bukhari ) Abu Dawud in his Sunan also reported this Hadith, but added to it "and the whole community will agree on each of them."
 
Finally, according to Muslim eschatology, the Mahdi will have his capital city in Jerusalem.


Abdullah ibn Hawalah Al-Azdi said: "The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم placed his hand over my head and said:"O Ibn Hawalah! When you see that the Khilafah (Caliphate) has settled (has its seat or capital) in the Holy Land (Palestine), then the earthquakes, tribulations and great events will have drawn near. The Hour, on that day, will be closer to the people than my hand is to your head."(Abu Dawud)


This is why we are witnessing the outrage and rioting all over the Muslim world after Donald Trump formally recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Jerusalem is the key to understanding end time events. Jesus specifically said to watch Jerusalem.

 
Luk 21:20  And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. 
Luk 21:21  Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto. 
Luk 21:22  For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. 

 
In conclusion, we cannot know with %100 percent certainty the identity of the antichrist until he is proclaiming himself God, while standing on God’s Holy Mountain. However, there are only a few people who can adequately fulfil Biblical prophecy. Mainly, I would keep my eye on the princes in the Jordanian Hashemite Dynasty. Most especially, I would keep my eye on The Crown Prince Hussein bin Abdullah. He appears to be currently moving into the spotlight of the world stage.

 
If King Abdullah of Jordan were to become seriously sick or to die, the Crown Prince Hussein would automatically become the ruler of Jordan, and he would also automatically become the recognized guardian of all the Muslim and Christian Holy Sites in Jerusalem. This would push him into the very center of the world stage and into the middle of end times prophecy.

 
You might ask, “What about King Abdullah? Could he be the antichrist?” I do not think so, mainly because of his age. He will be fifty-six (56) years old next month, that means he will be close to sixty-five (65) years old in 2026, which is when I believe the antichrist will reveal himself to the world. While his son, the Crown Prince Hussein, will only be thirty-two (32) years old in 2026. I believe Satan will want a young, healthy body to possess, not someone who will probably be on his last legs, if he is even still alive. After all, King Abdullah’s father, King Hussein, died at the age of sixty-three (63).
 
Luk 21:34  "Constantly be on your guard so that your hearts will not be loaded down with self-indulgence, drunkenness, and the worries of this life, or that day will take you by surprise
Luk 21:35  like a trap, because it will come on everyone who lives on the face of the earth.
Luk 21:36  So be alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place and to take your stand in the presence of the Son of Man." International Standard Version.
