Article on Gog-Magog,
the Last paragraph is interesting, With Islamic nations almost destroyed along with Iran and Russia, The remaining world doesnt have much oppositiion against the Antichrist.
Muslims oppose idol worship or man worship, So you can imagine, when Antichrist calls himself a god, he will have a huge islamic rebellion against him also, (they are deluded already by islam, but not to a point they start worshipping a man)
But after the GOG-MAGOG invasion, and God's battle against Gog-magog (russian-islamic) alliance,
80% of world's muslims may perish in this war.with the far east consumed by the hen flu, and pestilence and disasters, remaining world would then be more welcoming to the antichrist
Church is gone (raptured), ISlamic nations , muslims ( lot of them dead in gog-magog )
remaining world ? = Hindus (ready to worship men, already they do that)
= buddhists (ready to worship a man)
= new agers (ready to worship a man)
=atheists/liberals ( consider the antichrist as a righteous and enlightened man)
= apostate christians = consider him jesus returned with the false prophet's teachings
= muslims = very few remain, and mostly continuing to "fight" against whatever remaining and getting slaughtered by the Antichrist , and remaining ones could join up with Jews and accept Jesus as Messiah.
= far eastern nations= very far away from Antichrist's headquaters, but dont like the idea of a white western man bossing them around too much = split and they all decide to form a huge army china, north korea, india , pakistan ? = 200 million=pacific islands? = under the sea
= australia/nz ? = no idea.
= South america ? = no idea. probably chavez nukes them all?
= north america? = heading for bad trouble.= Africa ? = Apocalpyse has already begun there a long time ago, one needs to just see whats going on in Africa
Antartica and International space station = probaby a bit safer , but not for long.
