WHO ARE YOU, CHRISTIAN? This question is as old as the New Covenant itself. From the moment Christ died, all of humanity was given the opportunity to know God in a way unlike ever before. Jesus' death sealed the deal, but when He came back to life, every person on the planet now had the chance of God making His home inside of them-permanently. By grace through faith in what Jesus did for our sins, we Christians get a brand new identity from the moment we first believe. No longer living by rules, wasteful efforts, or people-pleasing, we now live and breathe by way of a supernatural relationship with the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, religious hierarchies who extort Christians, our main enemy, Satan, and the power of sin, all want nothing more than for us to not know what the Cross has truly done. The spiritual identity of every believer has become heaven-ready! On the inside, we are currently brand new creations! Not when our physical bodies die, but right now, we are new! My name is Matt McMillen, and over the next thirty days I'll take you on a daily devotional adventure of discovering who you really are as a child of God. Christian, you will be amazed at what the Cross has done to your identity! Thanks for joining me! Let's go!
So why use President Trump as a perfect example to prove how the Antichrist could arise on the scene and the world, particularly that which calls itself Christian, would be unaware? After all the end IS going to happen at some point. There will be a generation that will endure that. There will be a generation of Believers who will meet Christ in the air (1 Thes. 4:17). There will be a generation that will have to contend with the Antichrist. There will be a generation that will go through the "time of Jacob's trouble" (Jer. 30:7), better known as the Tribulation. So why use President Trump as the perfect example? Because he is and his followers are the perfect example of how a Strong Delusion sent by God could unfold. For those who are the most fascinated and strongest supporters of President Trump, likewise frequently make claims in their own personal lives as being Christians.Well quite simply put, a warning needs to be given to those around the world who might be asking questions, trying to make sense of the nonstop changes taking place. For some, something doesn't seem right. For me, how could a warning not be given, one that reminds people to repent and accept Christ, to get back to being watching and ready, no matter who the Antichrist is or when the time of the end is? Whether or not President Trump will turn out to be the Antichrist, I do not know. However, as I will point out, he makes the perfect example of proving just how far from the truth that what calls itself the church is nowadays. President Trump makes a perfect example of how those who call themselves christians, yet are not, seem to be deluded regarding him. He also makes the perfect example of how through genius schemes, he could ultimately rise to world power, though it would not be of his own power, but through the power of Satan. So we are going to be taking a look at some of the characteristics written about in The Antichrist chapter and comparing them to President Trump.

The Weimar Republic holds an infamous place in German history as a unique period of shame. Having been defeated in World War I, the German people had harsh and demoralizing conditions imposed on them by the Allies, including severe limitations on their nation's military. Vindictive neighbors like France and Poland ruthlessly exploited Germany's weakness by encroaching and laying claim to yet more of its lands.In this situation of the "death of Germany's honor," as Kurt Eggers calls it, paramilitary units called the Freikorps emerged to fill the void, refusing to accept their nation's humiliation. Rebel Mountain tells the story of the attempted re-conquest of the mountain Annaberg in Upper Silesia from Polish insurgents, a tale of struggle and heroism, rebellion and duty. Eggers writes with first-hand knowledge of the setting from his own participation in the conflict at the age of fifteen. Through the eyes and emotions of fictional characters, he brings to life his personal experience of a time when men took up arms for an unsung cause and kept the flame of their nation's honor alive, and he sees in the actions and desires of those humble veterans and volunteers the spark of a greater faith that could one day lift Germany out of both material oppression and spiritual malaise. Antelope Hill Publishing is proud to present Kurt Eggers' Rebel Mountain, for the first time accessible to the English reader. This evocative and insightful story of sacrifice and faith in the face of hardship and defeat is sure to be classic for generations to come.
