There are so many suspects I'd love to consider, but I think (in the interest of urgency) I should limit myself to 5. Our final suspect in the 'Pin the Tail on the Antichrist' Series is Nicolae Carpathia! What?!?! You heard me correctly.Much like God re-inspired all of Scripture in 1611, God has re-inspired the book of Revelation through the great work of Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. These men understand that crazy book better than anyone in history*. Even though their series is fiction, perhaps God has been working through them to reveal reality**!
Clearly, though, the Antichrist won't be words on a page. He's gotta be somebody. Let me suggest 2 possibilities.
1. The actor who who played Nicolae. Gordon Currie was born in 1965***! Like Arnold, his filmography is a scary list (The Killing Mind, Puppet Master, The Fear: Resurrection, The Dark Hours, etc). Who is better prepared for the role of the real Antichrist? Nobody. 2. Someone actually named Nicolae Carpathia. The closest person I could find is a billiards player named Nicolai Carpathia (only 1 letter off). We should keep an eye on THAT guy!Footnotes
*Probably even better than John!
**Much like Dan Brown's DaVinci Code!
***That is VERY close to 66'

Matthew, you are one interesting man. I've enjoyed the antichrist series.
Hey, if you get a chance, post some pics of your church and staff.
Hey Justin, thanks for stopping in. I'll keep that in mind for a post sometime next week.
Crazy, crazy, crazy! Ok, so who is it? Which one will take over the world? :)
Thanks for the comments Tammy and Gwyn. Today I have a wedding to do, but tonight and tomorrow I'm going to 1. Investigate the passages that directly mention the antichrist and 2. Make my final decision based on all the evidence.
I am pretty sure, Tammy, that they are called the Power Team.
You say your 'money' is on Arnold. Should he not be the antichrist, you can send the money to me via paypal.
Matthew, I'm just really grateful that you didn't put ME on the list. So many so called "friends" of the past thought they were doing me a favour by constantly pointing out my many anti-qualities. But thanks to your brilliant exposition of Biblical text and discernment about current culture, I can now point them to your website and say, "Ha! I TOLD you I was only a minor player in all this!"
haha
just so you know, i never thought of you as the antichrist. the false prophet maybe, not definitely not the devil's main man
That means a lot to me, Matthew. More than you know.
reading all your post thus far on this topic, i've come to the concustion that your thoughts for this are a bit far fetched let me explain. lets start with
BARNEY- I dont him more then the next person but i'm not going to make up some stupid thing as to say hes a Antichrist! thats stupid, so hwat he has 6 toes, so what he's a dino, its just some guy in a suit reading his lines and trying to make a living, and the end of the day the suit is just a suit.
CLINTON- yeah he's a dirt bag and no one really likes the guy, the mag. cover is a flook, yea i'm sure they ment to do that, plese give me a brake. so what his name comes out to be 666 if you use the Hebrew & Greek values, so what? I had a friend and if you put her anitals together and added "A" inbetween then you'd get SaTaN, so what does taht mean shes the next antichrist too? i dont think so.
BILL GATES- please he may be walthy and smart to no end, but taht doesnt make him evil. your barcode part makes a bit of sence but its been in use sence as you said 1966, so what, its a bar code. get over it, it doesnt mean anything. everything has it, no one questions why its there.everyone hears talk about getting "the mark" so you can buy stuff, the mark aka the bar code is on the items not our bodies. i mean whos really going to ask to have something implated into the head. i'm sure someones out there that would, but tahts not enough edivdance to clam him as an Antichrist.
ARNELD- Nice guy, ever met him? didnt think so. the actor now governor, is a family man he's not his charctures he plays in movies. did he write the movies? he just acted in them, big deal, so what? there are worst movies out there and he didnt act in them. get over it.
again so what is name comes out to be 666 if you add everything together in CAPS but if you do it not in caps its 333 if i'm not mistaken is is a representation of the New Covenant Church of God, so then where doent that fit into your theory?
NICOLAE- now i have no clue who this guy is and i really dont care, you baseing his antichirst stuff on his movies and the fact that you couldnt find the guys name. who cares that he guy was born 1965, ohh one number off, wouldnt aht mean any person who played in a "bad" movie and you cant find their name on line is the next antichrist? I didnt think so.
who are you to say any of theres people dont believe in Christ,
Antichrist meaning
1.An enemy of Christ.
2.Antichrist The epithet of the great antagonist who was expected by the early Church to set himself up against Christ in the last days before the Second Coming.
3.A false Christ.
none of your canidates ever clamed to be chirst, or an ememy of Christ
I appreciate your thoughtfulness over these posts. I agree with you. They are silly! My intention was to 'make fun' of all the antichrist hunting going on these days :)
If you knew me personally, you would have known this was a comedic set of posts, not serious
God bless you,
matthew
Matthew I just saw you post about pin the tail in the Antichrist and I love it man, you're great.
