Rapture Before Antichrist's Coming August 30 (John Hagee) Exposed & Explained [Video]

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


A third of a million results for “Antichrist, August 30, 2016” on Google suggest widespread belief that end-times will begin in 2016, but searching several linked sources reveals no explanation for why antichrist appears Aug. 30, in spite of the date in Hagee’s YouTube title.

Hagee’s August date and assurance of a rapture first sounds like Harold Camping, but there are a dozen reasons to counter a pre-tribulation rapture that came from John Darby in the early 1800′s, linked below. 

Here are a couple examples.

The first is popularized from the book and movie series, “Left Behind” in which Christians are supposedly taken to heaven. But if one reads the parallel passage in Luke 17:36,37, when Christ says one will be taken, the disciples ask, “Where, Lord?” and He replies, “Where the body is, there will the eagles be gathered.” (not taken to heaven, but the dinner of the vultures at the end of the world, Revelation 19:17.

Another example is the use of Paul’s statement on the 2nd coming of Christ: “For the Lord shall descend from heaven with a shout… with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up… ” 1Thessalonians 4:16,17.

But most Evangelical Christians do not compare Paul’s other comment on this–It’s “at the LAST trump, for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible.” 1Corinthians 15:52. There are seven trumpets, Revelation 8:6 that follow an earthquake in the previous verse and we haven’t seen that earthquake yet.

Earthquakes are happening around the world, but the ancient lukewarm church of Laodicea ended in an earthquake that destroyed the city. America has a lukewarm Christianity that is also materialistic as Revelation 3:15-21 describes, but the deeper meaning of the “knock” at the door is an earthquake that will surprise preachers who are saying rapture first.

Hagee also thinks Antichrist is coming by August 30. Antichrist may have more than one application.

#1. Antichrist can mean in place of Christ and for 1000+ years, millions of people have trusted a religion that claimed to forgive sin and promise salvation, even being able to pray a person out of purgatory (a word not found in the Bible) for money.

That system is plagued with child abuse and homosexuality but most people shrug it off rather than “repent” and “call no man Father” as Christ said. “Who can forgive sin but God?” This author once opened his home to an alcoholic priest for a week. The church took the daily experience for Christians away–no Bible study, prayer or witnessing, represented by the table of bread, altar of incense, and light of the candlesticks in the Holy Place of the sanctuary showing the experience of believers. Now it’s the mass and priest on Sunday or confessional instead of a believer’s daily experience. It’s antichrist—in place of Christ.

Hagee thinks the coming antichrist will be shot in the head and miraculously recover, but the deadly wound has already happened with the Protestant Reformation and Napoleon’s capture of the pope who died in exile, also in Revelation 13. Hagee mentioned the number 666 from Revelation 13, but didn’t menion the pope’s title, VICARIUS FILII DEI [vicar of the Son of God] as it adds up to 666 in Roman numerals (Google).

#2. There will probably be a Muslim leader who will arise to claim leadership to wipe out infidels for a coming Imam Mahdi–world ruler. This will be an obvious antichrist who will be conquered as Daniel 8 shows in the stomping of a militant Muslim ram with two horns broken. Gabriel said the vision is at the time of the end, so the Medes and Persians then (in this proven vision) are now Iraq and Iran, but Hagee preaches peace and safety for Jerusalem that doesn’t fit Zechariah 14. Its destruction may be the reason for the goat’s anger in Daniel 8.

#3. The imagery of Revelation 17 supports a New World Order (NWO) antichrist, papal leadership. A beast (government) is ridden by a harlot (unfaithful church) that has fornication with kings and is decked in gold (wealthy) and scarlet (color of cardinals), “mother of harlots” (mother church—her daughters no longer protest her), sitting on seven hills (Rome) and drunken with the blood of saints. Most history books have been laundered to no longer reveal the 50-100 million who died as martyrs for what they believed. America was founded, by Christians risking their lives to flee the Old World for freedom here.

In the context of a 7-year ending, near the end of the NWO beast’s power for 42 months (Revelation 13), Satan will appear as Jesus, to work miracles and deceive the whole world. Only a small minority will stand against the NWO and mark which brings the plagues of God (14th chapter) but those who do may be spared when Christ comes and “every eye shall see Him,” Revelation 1.

      Doc,

      Did you know that gematria was only meant to be employed while using the Hebrew and Greek languages? Also, what is there in Scripture which teaches us to employ gematria when attempting to glean the meaning of that number?

      It also sounded in your video like you predicted a war next year. That’s quite a few significant predictions I’ve witnessed you make. With somewhat sullied a track-record, I might add.

      Also, how old is your camera? That thing’s not even HD wide-screen and it’s still working? You must take very good care of your equipment.

      Is Hagee making the ridiculous leap of translating ἀποστασία (apostasia) as the ‘rapture’? I guess he must be, if he’s calling for a ‘rapture’ prior to the unveiling of the ‘man’ of sin. I wrap ‘man’ in quotation marks because a unique feature of the Greek New Testament Manuscripts is that ἄνθρωπος (anthropos) does not have to be translated as man. Two things the anti-christ will almost certainly be: 1. a ‘god’ – the warnings throughout Scripture about this very thing leave little room for alternative. We are not to worship gods made with men’s hands. So the anti-christ should be some form of technology blended with supernatural (seeming) quantum computational abilities with instantaneous access to the compendium of all human knowledge. That sounds god-like to me. And 2. something OTHER than a mere man. Enter transhumanism and the transsexual agenda. The coming god will be a hermaphrodite. That’s what I take away from the Scriptures – the embodiment of mingled seed. The elimination of all God-ordained borders, singularly personified. Whereas Messiah was a man, the anti-messiah will not be.

      The present (known) state of technology is not yet capable of producing this entity. We still need perhaps two decades and maybe more. John saw this Beast rising out of the sea, and the Book of Revelation explained to us just what the sea is. The Beast rises. The False Prophet causes men to make an image to the Beast – an image made (with men’s hands) in the likeness of its father. Mundane man is not able to fulfill all of the prophecies about this Beast. And the repeated warnings throughout Scripture against worshipping gods we have created ourselves would fall a bit flat without the grand finale of man-made gods for fools to worship. Part human part machine, part man part woman, genetically-engineered and fully-integrated with an artificial intelligence quantum super computer? Houston, we have a winner.

      Think it over, Doc.

          “Jesus was Little Horn.”

          It’s not even remotely surprising to me you just posted that, Damien.

          You can’t read your Bible in the darkness and hope for a better outcome. Really, Damien. Turn on the damn light so you can see what’s actually written.

          Seed mingling is the tactic of the Enemy. The anti-christ would be the ultimate embodiment of that tactic. The anti will be anti-God in all respects. It will not share anything with the Messiah — not even the body of a man. Everything Satan does is a corruption. A perversion. What’s more perverse than transsexualism and the mingling of the sexes?

            Beef Beef Beef

            Blood of His Mothers blood

            Flesh of His Mothers flesh

            YOU are actually the one building a bunch of sad physical dysmorphics into GODS just because they just happen to use everyday existential sense terms humans have always used in religion.

            You might as well say you believe Glen Beck if he was exposed as a furry would be the incarnation of a hooven satan. :roll:

            • BEEF SUPREME

              Glenn Beck has hooves?

              Something else that does not surprise. Nope. Beck wants to incarcerate 9-11 truthers and he wants to kill Trump. He’s not my sort of fella.

              Beck is a tyrant — no different from Lil’ Kim Jong Un and almost as fat.

      And Doc —

      It seems to me you stopped responding to my commentary a year or two ago, about the time I had a vile stalker who created a duplicate of my account and tried to run my name through the mud. He did a pretty thorough job. So if you’re bearing a grudge over something I said in the past, there’s a very good chance I never said it.

      Emoticons are a good indicator. The insane creature who pursued me used emoticons pathologically. I try to avoid them entirely as infernal corruptors of language.

      Dr. Dick…

      How fitting.

    • The Clucker

      Anywho, just listen to the masked avenger with the chicken bucket on his head instead of reading this jibberish from Dr. Dick.

      In other words, forget this rapture nonsense and relax.

    • Youareallnuts

      Should have known a loon like you just couldn’t stop soothsaying, Dickie Boy.

    • Central Scrutinizer

      YEA!!!!!

      More dates to poke fun at when they (like every other 1,234,543,567,432th time) fail to materialize.

      Carry On. That is All. :mrgreen:
