Yeah, I DO know...

The anti-christ will be loved and admired by everyone, thus gaining the ability to manipulate the world.

"According to biblical prophecy this age will not end with the triumph of Christianity and the nations turning to the Lord, but with the world rule of one known as 'the Beast' or the Antichrist (Revelation 13.5-7) and a brief time of such great tribulation that if God did not cut short these days no flesh would be saved (Matthew 24.22) (i.e. no one would survive).

Prophecies concerning this subject are found mainly in the books of Daniel and Revelation. In Revelation 13.1 John 'saw a beast coming out of the sea.' Daniel 7 also describes four great beasts that come up from 'the Great Sea', which is being stirred up by the wind. Isaiah 57.20 gives us one clue as to what is meant by this:

"But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, says my God to the wicked."

In other words the troubled sea represents humanity in rebellion against God, out of whom the antichrist will emerge. The 'Great Sea' also speaks of the Mediterranean area which was part of all the four world empires described by Daniel. In Daniel 7 the antichrist is described as 'the little horn' who arises out of the fourth beast (Rome) and 'speaks great things' (blasphemies). Power is given him by 10 kings and he persecutes the saints for 'a time, times and half a time' (3½ years). He is destroyed by the Lord and given 'to the burning flame' (hell).

Daniel 9 speaks of 'the prince who is to come' who is to make a covenant with Israel for 7 years, to be broken half way through this period (i.e. after 3½ years) by 'the abomination that makes desolate.' According to Daniel 9.26 'The people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.' This part of the prophecy has already been fulfilled when the Romans destroyed the Temple and the city of Jerusalem in AD 70. Therefore the 'prince who is to come' must have some connection with Rome.

In Daniel 11 he appears as a 'contemptible person who comes in peaceably' (21), sets up the abomination of desolation (11, 31), speaks blasphemies against God and magnifies himself against every god (36-37) (i.e. he is against both the true God and the false gods). He directs worship to himself and brings about the time of great tribulation." - http:../../www.lightforthelastdays.co.uk...ntichrist.html/default.htm

DOES THAT SOUND LIKE BUSH TO YOU ??!!

Honestly, I am getting so sick of this accusation.

Everyone hates Bush, so how could he be the antichrist ?

Actually, I am in the middle of a divorce, and I would like to point out that my exwife is the antichrist.

and how does that mean Bush?

Bush is a horrible president, but Dig is right, he's almost definitely not the anti christ.

And the bible seems pretty clear that the Anti christ won't be american.

There was no concept of America at the time. We are like the New Rome but I'd think more of the EU.
