[Deathstar 80]

Every now and then, I might make a post that I've been studying and I personally find interesting. I'm definitely curious of what all of you think of the different bible prophecy "topics" that I study.

For this post, I thought of explaining the similarity between Christian end-times views and Islamic end-times views.

I'm actually still trying to study about this - because I don't know much at all about Islamic prophecy. But from what I've been told, Islamic end-time views believe in a person called the "Mahdi" or the "Twelfth Imam". The reason this person is important to remember is because this person sounds very similar to the antichrist from Christian end-times views. The following are the similarities between the Mahdi from Islamic end-times views and the Antichrist from Christian end-times views:

1) Rules the world (for Islam, the Mahdi creates a global caliphate) and sets his global seat at the temple mount.
2) Rules for seven years.
3) Creates peace treaty with Israel and then breaks peace treaty.
4) Kills Jews and Christians.
5) Kills or beheads non-believers.
6) Creates a "mark of the beast".
7) Seven-year period ends with Jesus returning.
