Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has openly called for Israel to be "wiped off the map".
"The establishment of the Zionist regime was a move by the world oppressor against the Islamic world," the president told a conference in Tehran on Wednesday entitled 'The World without Zionism'. "The skirmishes in the occupied land are part of a war of destiny. The outcome of hundreds of years of war will be defined in Palestinian land," he said.
"As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map," said Ahmadinejad.....

Won't the anti-christ "sneak" in and take most of us by surprise? Like "OMG, why did we ever believe in this person?" I wouldn't take my eyes off this clown because he's as crazy as a loon. He's definitely NOT the guy in my opinion.

As you said,Quote///''Like "OMG, why did we ever believe in this person?
Exactly!
He will not have a family, or a wife or brothers or sisters.
His family will become later ,all who walk with him, and talk with him will see in him a universal teacher of mankind.
He will be a very influential person, who many will find in him a great thinker of all time.
There are many evil doing people in the world, but this coming ANTICHRIST will be the ultimate evil because he will use all sorts of deceptive means to gain popularity amongst humanity.....just a bit of info....

This fellow is blatently stateing death and destruction to Israiel.
If the anti-chirist is to be as is described in Revelations, then it must come under the cloak of goodness and miracles. Only after it acheives having the masses love the acts it performs will it come out and start its evil progress.
No the Iranian president is just another apparently insane leader that has a hate of Israiel that is all consuming.
Where is this information about the Anti-christ to be found, helen? That's a lot of details about someone supposedly so mysterious.
And just fyi, there are MANY right this minute that will agree with him, wholeheartedly just as they did with Hitler, and think that he is not 'evil' but will "rid the world" of people the ones who agree with him think are the troublemaking evil ones of the world.
Don't fool yourself into thinking an evil leader has to come into power incognito, that is refusing to look at history; forgetting history allows it to be repeated, remember?

Like, ahem, now?
f we take literally the time indicated by Holy Scripture regarding the rule of the beast, the activity of the Antichrist will last for about 3 1/2 years. It will end with the Second Coming of Christ, the General Resurrection of the Dead, and the Last Judgment (Daniel 7:25; Rev. 11:2-3, 12:13, 13:5).

He is too blatanly, obviously evil to be the great deceiver AntiChrist/Beast 666.....
of the book of Revelation.
However, the phrase "Iranian Leader" DOES equal 666 on the 666 calculator...

Interesting for sure.

There is absolutely no Biblical backup to this supposition. There is teaching that it is so, but it is merely speculative without the Bible saying so. As is this,
Yes there is...
Revelation,chapter 1:4...John to the seven churches,which are in Asia......
Or are you talking about 'no proof' that seven being a perfect number?
Or that it is for our age?
Revelation in Greek means 'apocalypsi'....to be revealed,which would mean for the future, which of-course has not happened as of yet.
As for the quote below,Yes there is...in Daniel...42 months..
if we take literally the time indicated by Holy Scripture regarding the rule of the beast, the activity of the Antichrist will last for about 3 1/2 years.
The 42 months (3 1/2 years) mentioned in Rev 13 states clearly that the beast will be in power that long, there is no mention there of "AntiChrist".
There is a mention ..."And in the latter times of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up." (Daniel 8:23)......read also Daniel 7:25.And he shall speak great words against the most High,and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws:and they shall be given into his hand UNTIL A TIME AND TIMES and the divided of time......this relates also to the end of the world and the Antichrist....ANTI....in place of,instead of,the opposite of.....
I'm not saying this just to argue, helen, but to say that it isn't all as cut and dried as teachers have made it sound, and I'm sure we will be seeing, in the actual fulfillment of Revelation, astounding things that are perfectly suited to what the Bible says and absolutely NOT what has been taught as 'truth' by past generations.
It's one thing to say I believe this is what is meant by such and such a verse from Revelation, but it is another to say I KNOW this is what will happen because this verse means this and that one means that. What has happened can be stated as fact, what has not must be tinted with imagination, even if "spiritually discerned".
I can understand where you are coming from, and it's perfectly ok, to find it hard to believe, what the teachers or elders of the church have said and prophesied, but we stand to lose nothing, by reading and learning ......maybe it will be beneficial someday...many prophecies that I have read, continue to come out, and they are not some sort of 'vague' interpretation, but consistent with what is happening today!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad -

(Aljazeera.net for Tuesday July 11, 2006)
Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has openly called for Israel to be "wiped off the map".
"The establishment of the Zionist regime was a move by the world oppressor against the Islamic world," the president told a conference in Tehran on Wednesday entitled 'The World without Zionism'. "The skirmishes in the occupied land are part of a war of destiny. The outcome of hundreds of years of war will be defined in Palestinian land," he said.
"As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map," said Ahmadinejad.....
His speech was followed by a street crowd shouting "Death to Zionist", "Death to America".
He is pro-Islam to a fanatic degree, believes Allah will aid the Muslims to 'defeat' the Oppressor, by which he means America, and further more this means "kill the infidels".
For those who think Islam is a "peaceful" religion, think again. Unless you want to be Muslim, think again twice.
The Palestians Muslims have decided that even the Chrstians among the Palestinians must be under Muslim rule.
There you are.

You want truth, start at the Bible, that way you won't have to come back around to it when your theories fall apart.
