For what it's worth, I think the "anti-christ" is pretty convenient for christians. It's like, whoever they declare is the anti-christ will totally not have a very pleasant time at Kanakuk Kamps. The thing is though, there can be only one. It's not like you can turn around and say it was all a mistake if an even nastier piece of work comes along.
And no, I don't think they will look ANYTHING like Christopher Lambert.

Why does God grant evil any power? In order to know without a doubt where your heart truly is. Even Satan believes in God. He is a fallen angel and as such has powers that seduce the hearts and minds of men.
God dosen't need to play silly games like this. You are anthropomorphising God. IMO you are streaching Bibical interpretation pretty far. It's very dangerous to do Gods' thinking for him!!

I have seen troubled minds and hearts of late and it has not been in my power to soothe and heal them.
I accept God's will in the matter and ask for the strength to carry on in my purpose, both that known and communicated to me, and in the purpose I have not yet attained.
Christians are persecuted for their beliefs and trying to get others to believe,

Entirely, completely, wrong. I know of no one that persecutes true Christians. DO NOT FALL PREY to the teachings of man.
One should not be attempting to get people to "believe'. They should be working on the knowing part.
If one feels their religion is a "believe" than how can one get another to follow it? Speak on what you "know" which are the words of Christ and no other. Don't make it any harder than it is.
Which Christianity should be followed? The one taught by Christ or the one taught by man? There is a tremendous difference in many cases.
Scaring others with "grave consequences" is one of the reasons people don't want to play the game. How about this? Scare them with LOVE!!

Mods, I know that it might seem like this isn't conspiracy related however, any undermining of Faith is a conspiracy of evil perpetrated by the anti-God and as such I'd hope you see where this is coming from.
