We now transition in our study of “A Biblical View of the End Times” into an extended study of those events concerning the rise of the antichrist. There is a lot of wild speculation about the antichrist, and clarity is needed. This lesson focuses on the antichrist’s origins based upon information we are given in the book of Daniel. Special attention is given to details concerning the destruction of the temple in 70AD and the evolution of the Roman empire around and after that time.
