From where will the antichrist rise?
If you do not believe in Bible prophecy, please do not interact here.
To the rest: So, from where will the man of sin come? Libia? Iran? Israel? USA?
Revelation states that the beast will rule over all men and animal in every nation, so he will be the NWO supreme voice. Which actually makes this prophecy much more powerful: the bible warned us about the New World Order and now, with Globalism and world economic systems, it is in motion. And, of course, the iniquity, imorality, sorcery and all the signs of the end are all in place.
Any guesses about who the man of sin is and from where he will come?
I think it could be even a western man that goes to Israel to make a peace covenant that leads to the construction of the Third Temple. It does not have to be a eastern man, but it could be.
I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.
Apocalipse 6:2
The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie,
and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.
For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie
and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
2 Tessalonicenses 2:9-12
Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.
The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.
It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,
so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
¶ This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. [^5] That number is 666.
Apocalipse 13:14-18
¶ "The king will do as he pleases. He will exalt and magnify himself above every god and will say unheard-of things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been determined must take place.
He will show no regard for the gods of his ancestors or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all.
Instead of them, he will honor a god of fortresses; a god unknown to his ancestors he will honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts.
He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will distribute the land at a price. [^4]
¶ "At the time of the end the king of the South will engage him in battle, and the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots and cavalry and a great fleet of ships. He will invade many countries and sweep through them like a flood.
He will also invade the Beautiful Land. Many countries will fall, but Edom, Moab and the leaders of Ammon will be delivered from his hand.
He will extend his power over many countries; Egypt will not escape.
He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and all the riches of Egypt, with the Libyans and Cushites [^5] in submission.
But reports from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will set out in a great rage to destroy and annihilate many.
He will pitch his royal tents between the seas at [^6] the beautiful holy mountain. Yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
Daniel 11:36-45
