Numerous Christians are curious about whether or not a Muslim Antichrist will eventually appear in the world. The conventional viewpoint within most Judeo-Christian churches is that this individual will be European or Roman. In all likelihood, this philosophy stems from information found in the book of Daniel in the Bible, which calls the aforementioned individual a descendent of those who destroyed the Temple. The Bible records these individuals as Romans, and states that they destroyed the Temple in the year 70 A. D.
Scholars are also divided with regard to whether or not this person will claim to be a Christian or a Jew. Many people believe that the Gospel of John states that the Antichrist will be Jewish. Certain individuals think that in order deceive the Jewish people and be accepted by their race, he will have to be, or at the very least masquerade, as a Jew himself.
Another group of individuals believe that certain Scriptures indicate the Anti-Christ will not be Jewish. For example, in Revelation, this person is depicted as a beast that comes "out of the sea." When this particular phrase is used in other sections of the Bible, it is referring to "Gentile nations."
Yet another argument is that this individual will be a Muslim. This is the current and the most popular philosophy among most Christians. It may have caught on because of the recent and obvious renewal of the Muslims' goal to conquer all the nations of the world in the name of their god Allah.
Many manuals have been penned on this subject by knowledgeable individuals who have studied eschatology. In one novel, a biblical foundation is created that asserts that the anti-Christ will definitely be a Muslim. Other books also allude to this theory without overtly stating that it is the case.
Because the Bible also mentions a false prophet along with the Anti-Christ, some people are of the belief that one of these individuals will be Jewish, while the other will be a Muslim. Still others claim that both will be of European or Roman descent, as previously mentioned.
Due to the fact that there are numerous conflicting philosophies on the subject, many Christians have conducted their own research on the topic. Of course, different individuals have come to different conclusions regarding whether or not the aforementioned individual will be a Muslim. However, those who have completed research of this kind have probably found that such studies are both interesting and rewarding.
Whether or not there will eventually be a Muslim Antichrist remains to be seen. Although there are conflicting opinions about the race from which this individual will descend, almost all Christians agree that the end times are here. For this reason, Christians must simply watch and wait, and try to hear God's voice concerning which public figures can be trusted, and which may have sinister agendas. Because no one knows exactly when the Antichrist will appear, it is wise for Christians to keep such matters in prayer.
