Psalm 7:9-17. Too many look for the antichrist to come into power from a position of political leadership. He is first of all a leader in the last day church who will become apostate as did Lucifer and Judas. He will have been a true Apostle and will have a large following in the church. As a renegade, he will assume the position of the antichrist becoming both a world wide politician and the head of the amalgamated false church, the harlot church, religious Babylon. In the seventy four years that I have been saved almost any and all world leaders in politics or religion have had books written about them being the antichrist but none of them have ever made it. The list is too long to give here and at this time. Obviously, these who prophesied outside of the Word of the Lord missed the mark. The Messianic prophesy recorded in Psalms eight, verses twelve to fourteen give an insight on the enemy within the camp. The one who rose up against Him was not an enemy, one who opposed Him nor one who exalted himself against Him, but it was one of His own. A true friend, a counselor, they had walked together to the house of the Lord. To find other types and symbols of this man look in the scriptures for those like Davidís son, Absalom.

The Lord spoke to Israel of an appointed time and the arrival of a day when this King of Babylon would overwhelm Israel. The Lord does not work in a haphazard manner nor does He do things on the spur of the moment. He has a plan, a schedule and is adhering exactly to that which has been established from eternity. The Lord spoke concerning this one who was so self exalted and said the profane, wicked leader in Israel had fulfilled his days and that the end had come. Eze. 21:25 The diadem and crown of His office was to be taken away from him. The diadem was the sign of the priesthood. While the crown was the emblem of a politician. He is to be relieved of his position in Israel for his end will come. Eze. 21:26.

The glory and majesty of the kingdom was to be crushed, awaiting the coming of one who would be the possessor of the kingdom, the Messiah. The kingdom rightfully belongs to Him and it will be given unto Him, He is raising it up and is building, a spiritual kingdom, an eternal kingdom.. One of the great mistakes that was made by the people in His first visit to this earth Was that they anticipated the building of a secular kingdom which would bring deliverance to them from the Romans. Now, in the end of the age as we approach the hour of His visitation we find the same expectance is being perpetrated on the people. Jesus said that His kingdom was not of this world for had it been his followers would have fought for it. John 18:36.
