Antichrist and the Many Faces of Evil
About This Series:
Seven decades have passed since the smell of sacrifices last rose from Solomon’s Temple. Many Jews have already given up hope of ever seeing their beloved homeland again, and perhaps many have even begun to accept that God has abandoned them forever. But outside their walls of despair, they begin to hear a faint rumbling—not unlike the distinct rumbling of clouds before a storm. It is the sound of a nation on the brink of revival. In Ezra: Under the Good Hand of God, Stephen searches the Old Testament archives and spotlights the divinely empowered achievements of Ezra as he leads God's people to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem and reclaim authentic worship.

The Last Caesar (Revelation 13:1-2)
Revelation 13:1-2 introduces us to one of the most notorious figures in history yet to come—the Antichrist. This “last Caesar” will rise from obscurity to global prominence, captivating nations with his charm, political genius, and demonic power. But beneath his appealing facade lies a blasphemous agenda to oppose Christ, deceive the world, and claim worship for himself.
Stephen Davey unpacks the Bible’s detailed descriptions of the Antichrist’s rise, authority, and alliances. Drawing connections to Daniel’s visions of world empires and the revived Roman Empire, this message explores how the Antichrist will manipulate global events, broker peace in the Middle East, and demand allegiance through lies and force.
Yet the Bible also warns of the "spirit of antichrist" already at work in our world, spreading deception and corrupting hearts. Stephen challenges believers to stay vigilant, guard against falsehood, and stand firm in the truth of God’s Word.
Counterfeit (Revelation 13:3-4)
Revelation 13:3-4 paints a chilling portrait of the Antichrist—Satan’s ultimate counterfeit. This global leader will captivate the world with miraculous signs, including a shocking resurrection, and demand worship as a god. Yet behind his rise to power lies a far more sinister agenda: leading humanity into spiritual ruin and rebellion against God.
In this episode, Stephen Davey unpacks the parallels between Jesus Christ and the Antichrist, revealing Satan’s relentless attempts to counterfeit God’s truth. From false miracles to blasphemous claims, the Antichrist will deceive billions, solidifying his rule during the darkest days of human history.
But even as the world falls into deception, believers are called to live with discernment and unwavering commitment to the true Messiah. Stephen reminds us that while Satan’s counterfeits are convincing, Jesus Christ alone offers salvation and eternal life.
If you’ve ever wondered how to discern truth in a world filled with lies—or how to remain faithful in the face of spiritual deception—this message will challenge and encourage you.
One Nation Under Antichrist (Revelation 13:5-10)
Revelation 13:5-10 unveils a chilling glimpse into the future: the Antichrist’s rise to global power. This tyrant will lead a unified world government, deceiving nations with his blasphemous words, miraculous resurrection, and absolute authority. Yet behind his charismatic leadership lies Satan’s ultimate agenda to defy God and destroy His people.
Stephen Davey explores the Antichrist’s reign of global defiance and dominance, showing how he will target believers, persecute the faithful, and demand worship from the world. But even as chaos unfolds, Revelation assures us of God’s control. The Antichrist’s power is temporary and limited by God’s sovereign will. For believers, this passage is a powerful reminder that our names, written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, secure our eternal future with Christ.
In this episode, Stephen challenges us to discern the spirit of antichrist in our own world and to live boldly for Christ in the time we’ve been given.

The Fifth Column (Revelation 13:11-15)
Deception isn’t always obvious—it often disguises itself as truth. Revelation 13:11-15 introduces us to the False Prophet, the Antichrist’s religious counterpart, who will unite the world in worship of a counterfeit messiah. This one-world religion will begin with inclusivism but ultimately demand allegiance to the Antichrist alone. In this message, Stephen Davey exposes the parallels between the coming False Prophet and the apostasy we see in the church today.
Drawing from biblical warnings about false teachers and the spirit of antichrist, Stephen challenges believers to stand firm in the gospel and discern truth from lies. He also highlights the stark contrast between the deceptive unity of the Antichrist’s kingdom and the genuine unity found in Christ.
Whether you’re curious about end-times prophecy or seeking encouragement to live faithfully in a world increasingly resistant to the truth, this episode offers biblical clarity and practical wisdom. As the world moves closer to a one-world system, God’s Word equips His people to persevere and proclaim the gospel with confidence.
Fireworks! (Revelation 13:13-15)
Miracles can amaze, but they can also mislead. In Revelation 13:13-15, the False Prophet performs jaw-dropping signs, including calling fire down from heaven, to convince the world to worship the Antichrist. This display of supernatural power deceives countless people, leading them into false worship and away from the truth of God.
In this compelling message, Stephen Davey explains the role of the False Prophet in the unholy trinity of the end times. Drawing parallels to the deception of false teachers today, Stephen equips believers to discern truth from lies by relying on Scripture. You’ll also discover the ultimate hope for those who place their faith in Christ, standing firm in the midst of spiritual counterfeits.
This message is a powerful call to vigilance and faithfulness, challenging the church to reject false teachings and hold fast to the unchanging Word of God.
666 (Revelation 13:16-18)
What is the significance of 666, and why is it so feared? Revelation 13:16-18 reveals the mark of the beast—a symbol of allegiance to the Antichrist and a key to survival during the Tribulation. This mark will define a future global system of economic and spiritual control, forcing every person to choose between worshiping Christ or the Antichrist.
In this eye-opening message, Stephen Davey unpacks the meaning of 666, exploring its role in Satan’s counterfeit kingdom and how it reflects humanity’s rebellion against God. You’ll learn about the historical and prophetic significance of this mark, its connection to worship, and the ultimate judgment awaiting those who embrace it.
This lesson also offers a powerful challenge to believers today: remain faithful to the gospel and alert to spiritual deception. By standing firm on the authority of Scripture, we can proclaim the good news of salvation in Christ and live with confidence in God’s sovereign plan. Whether you’re curious about end-times prophecy or seeking clarity on a controversial topic, this episode provides biblical insight and encouragement for living in anticipation of Christ’s return.
