#114 - Could Abdullah Hashem Be the Antichrist? · Brandon Fogal Evolution

• 0:00
  Could Abdullah Hashem, who has proclaimed himself as the Mahdi coming into the
• 0:06
  world, could he be the Antichrist?
• 0:09
  I don't know if you've seen videos about this man, but he's out there making
• 0:13
  some very boisterous, incredible claims about himself.
• 0:19
  And if you haven't heard about him, I'm sure you will soon. He's all across social media.
• 0:24
  My name is Brandon Fogle. This is Evolution. Let's dive into this topic.
• 0:28
  Because before we dive into pinning the tail on the Antichrist,
• 0:34
  because I know that has been a thing for 2,000 years, when even in the first century,
• 0:40
  the apostles themselves were seeing signs of this because they were saying many
• 0:46
  Antichrists have come into the world.
• 0:48
  But without question, there is a picture in the Bible that it portrays that
• 0:53
  there will be one singular individual who will be the Antichrist, the man of lawlessness.
• 1:00
  Paul the Apostle speaks about it, as well as John the Apostle,
• 1:04
  and there are allusions in so many different places in the Bible.
• 1:07
  From the Old Testament and into the New, it gets clearer and clearer,
• 1:11
  but no matter how clear it gets, it's always hazy, it feels like.
• 1:16
  It's always hazy of who will fit this perfect mold that the Bible portrays.
• 1:21
  Could this guy be it? I want to show a clip from Cameron Bertuzzi.
• 1:27
  He does a podcast. He does a YouTube channel called Capturing Christianity.
• 1:31
  And I want to show a clip about him talking about this man and the guy himself,
• 1:36
  the words, the proclamations he's made about himself, which is really crazy.
• 1:41
  If you have not heard it, you get, you might want to buckle your seat.
• 1:45
  All right. This right here is Cameron.
• 1:46
  Let's just take a short clip of what this guy is claiming. Okay.
• 1:50
  Abdullah Hashem, better known as Abba al-Sadiq, or the father of the truthful,
• 1:55
  burst onto the religious scene with some incredibly provocative statements.
• 1:59
  And when I say provocative, I mean statements so bold they would make Joseph
• 2:03
  Smith look conservative.
• 2:05
  I mean, just check this out, okay? Here's how Abdullah describes himself in his own words.
• 2:10
  I am Abdullah, the successor of Imam al-Mahdi, the successor of the comforter
• 2:16
  Ahmed, the successor of Simon Peter, the successor of Muhammad,
• 2:21
  the successor of Jesus Christ.
• 2:25
  I am the true and legitimate pope. I am the proof upon the Christians.
• 2:29
  I am the son of the Muslims through my father and the son of the Christians
• 2:33
  and the Jews through my mother. Yes, this is real.
• 2:36
  Unfortunately, he's claiming to be not just the successor to Muhammad,
• 2:40
  but to Jesus Christ himself somehow.
• 2:44
  Oh, and then also he's the Pope. Just let that sink in for a second.
• 2:47
  Okay. So you can see he made a bunch of claims right there.
• 2:51
  A whole, I mean, he just threw them all in there.
• 2:54
  I mean, what this guy is saying about
• 2:56
  himself, is he a CIA PSYOP that was unleashed during the Arab Spring?
• 3:03
  Because you hear that, that could be a potential possibility.
• 3:07
  Because the things he is saying, I mean, he got it all. I mean,
• 3:11
  if you want to cover all your bases, he did it. I mean, he did it.
• 3:15
  And he even claims, he says Jesus is the Messiah.
• 3:18
  And I don't know if that is too far-fetched for Muslims to get on board with,
• 3:24
  Jesus being the Messiah. They hold him as a very...
• 3:28
  Prestigious prophet. The only
• 3:30
  thing that they cannot get on board with is calling him the son of God.
• 3:34
  They cannot get on that. And that is the unforgivable sin in Islam.
• 3:38
  You do not call Jesus the son of God because Allah has no sons according to
• 3:43
  their theology, but he's the successor of Simon Peter.
• 3:46
  He's the legitimate Pope. And these aren't things he's saying about someone
• 3:50
  else. He's saying about himself.
• 3:53
  Now I want to read a short passage from the Bible. This is in Revelation chapter 13.
• 3:58
  This is talking about the first beast. Now, I would not think that this guy
• 4:04
  is going to be the Antichrist. I don't think he is.
• 4:06
  I think he's just going to be one of many voices, but it almost is he getting
• 4:10
  the ball rolling kind of thing. This is from Revelation chapter 13.
• 4:14
  It says, and I saw a beast rising out of the sea with 10 horns and seven heads
• 4:20
  and 10 diadems on its horns and blasphemous names on its heads.
• 4:25
  And the beast that I saw was like a leopard.
• 4:28
  Its feet were like a bear's and its mouth was like a lion's mouth.
• 4:32
  And to it, the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority.
• 4:37
  So this beast, this is the Antichrist that is talked about in Revelation.
• 4:43
  He comes up out of the sea, which is out of chaos, which you would think would
• 4:47
  be out of, I mean, almost nuclear war. something has been unleashed upon this
• 4:52
  world, and people are just struggling to survive.
• 4:56
  And they're just clawing for anything. They're looking for anyone,
• 4:59
  and they see this person that kind of.
• 5:02
  Rallies everybody together, and he looks like a peaceful person.
• 5:06
  Now skip down a little bit in the book of Revelation, same chapter 13.
• 5:11
  This talks about the second beast, which is the false prophet.
• 5:16
  So you got the dragon, you got the first beast, and you got the second beast,
• 5:20
  almost the satanic trinity.
• 5:24
  The dragon who represents Satan
• 5:26
  himself, the first beast who is the antichrist, And the second beast,
• 5:31
  this is the false prophet who was going to point everybody to the Antichrist
• 5:38
  and make sure everybody jumps in line and starts worshiping him.
• 5:42
  In Revelation 13, 11, it says, Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth,
• 5:47
  and it had two horns like a lamb, and it spoke like a dragon.
• 5:50
  It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence and makes
• 5:56
  the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast whose mortal wound was healed.
• 6:01
  So could this guy be the Antichrist? Who knows? I don't think we are going to
• 6:06
  see the Antichrist coming.
• 6:07
  I don't think it's going to be this guy who has a YouTube channel,
• 6:10
  who is on TikTok, who is on all these videos,
• 6:13
  but maybe this is just his following that are just throwing them out there and
• 6:17
  wanting everybody to see this guy and see who he is because his following,
• 6:22
  no matter what you think, Like they are saying he has done miracles,
• 6:27
  like crazy, bona fide, legitimate miracles.
• 6:31
  And either they're actors or they really believe this. And it looks like they
• 6:35
  really believe this. So is this a massive delusion that is happening?
• 6:39
  Also in the Bible, it does talk about at the end of the age.
• 6:43
  I mean, you could say we are definitely at the end of the age.
• 6:46
  I mean, there's no question about that. I mean, since Jesus has come,
• 6:50
  every generation has been at the end of the age.
• 6:53
  We're just like on the edge of our seat waiting for it to happen.
• 6:55
  And we always think it's going to happen in our lifetime.
• 6:58
  It feels like it would happen in our lifetime. It feels like it.
• 7:02
  This is from 2 Thessalonians 2, and Paul the Apostle is trying to settle some
• 7:08
  fears from people who are scared that they missed the resurrection.
• 7:12
  They're scared that they've missed Jesus's coming. And he tells them.
• 7:17
  Trust me, you're not going to miss this.
• 7:18
  When this happens, first, there's going to be a rebellion, which is almost,
• 7:22
  there's going to be a rebellion within the Christian community itself.
• 7:26
  There's going to be a massive apostasy
• 7:28
  that happens. And then the man of lawlessness is going to be revealed.
• 7:32
  Paul the Apostle in 2 Thessalonians 2, he says, Now concerning the coming of
• 7:36
  the Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him,
• 7:40
  we ask you brothers not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed either by a
• 7:45
  spirit or a spoken word or a letter seeming to be from us to the effect that
• 7:50
  the day of the Lord has come.
• 7:51
  Let no one deceive you in any way for that day will not come unless the rebellion
• 7:57
  comes first and the man of lawlessness is revealed.
• 8:01
  The son of destruction who opposes and exalts himself against every so called
• 8:06
  God or object of worship so that he takes his seat in the temple of God,
• 8:11
  proclaiming himself to be God.
• 8:14
  This man of lawlessness that is going to come into the world,
• 8:17
  we're going to know when he is there. We're going to see it clearly.
• 8:21
  Now, this might go into people's, like I said yesterday, the rapture.
• 8:25
  Is the Christians going to be taken out of this world
• 8:28
  so that we can't fact check everyone hey guys look at he's there and even if
• 8:33
  we were if we were there i don't think we are going to be able to speak people
• 8:37
  are going to shut our mouths there's going to be mass delusion mass like people
• 8:43
  are going to see signs and wonders happening.
• 8:46
  At that point, it's going to be no turning back because this spirit is going
• 8:52
  to be unleashed on this world.
• 8:54
  Everybody is going to be mesmerized by this individual.
• 8:58
  You will not be able to not buy in to what he's selling.
• 9:03
  And the only thing that could save you is God's Holy Spirit that is in you.
• 9:08
  And if you love the truth and if you want the truth, because,
• 9:13
  and I think that is, once that happens, there's no going back.
• 9:17
  So whether this guy is this, and I don't think he is, I do not think that this
• 9:22
  is the guy based on the things that he is saying and that all this other stuff has not happened.
• 9:29
  When the temple starts being built, I would say then you might start grabbing
• 9:35
  your seat and get ready to roll because it is clear that this man of lawlessness
• 9:40
  is going to take his seat in the temple of God, which would be in Jerusalem.
• 9:45
  And at that point, he would say, I am God, and he would demand worship of the entire earth.
• 9:52
  This could be a precursor of what is about to unfold, what is coming.
• 9:56
  And could this guy be the false prophet, that second beast? That's a possibility.
• 10:01
  That's a possibility. But I think this guy is going to look so good.
• 10:05
  This man of lawlessness is going to look so good and so appealing.
• 10:09
  It would be the least likely tail that you would pin on the donkey.
• 10:13
  It would be the least likely person that you would ever suspect.
• 10:17
  Because he would look so, he would be crying out for peace and great things
• 10:23
  and good things, prosperity, everyone.
• 10:26
  And everyone will love him and he will get peace in this world.
• 10:30
  And then it says in that seven-year time frame, in the middle of it,
• 10:34
  he will basically go against everything.
• 10:37
  He will break all peace treaties and then he will just put massive submission
• 10:41
  on everybody and all hell is going to break loose.
• 10:44
  So I think everybody needs to be aware of that this could happen so you are
• 10:49
  not caught off guard and you are not just bought into the delusion,
• 10:53
  this massive signs and wonders that is going to come upon everyone.
• 10:56
  But this guy, I do not think he is, but I mean, you might throw him on the board
• 11:01
  of possible suspects of the potential Antichrist or false prophet,
• 11:07
  but we're going to see that the Antichrist is going to come out of the sea, which is that chaos.
• 11:13
  We never expected when Jesus came into the world that that was what the Messiah was going to look like.
• 11:18
  We never expected it. And I can confidently say that because the Christians,
• 11:24
  the Jews in the first century when he was here, they did not see it at all.
• 11:30
  It took them, they were blindsided by it.
• 11:33
  And I think everybody is going to be blindsided by the Antichrist when he comes.
• 11:38
  But it does not change the fact that we need to be on guard.
• 11:41
  We need to be hearing everyone out.
• 11:43
  And when somebody is making claims like this guy, he's also bringing all the
• 11:48
  religions together, Islam, Christianity, Judaism. He's bringing them all together.
• 11:54
  And I mean, like I said, he is almost greasing the wheels for something to happen.
• 11:58
  Maybe this will peek everyone's antennas so they're ready for when it happens
• 12:02
  so it doesn't catch as many people off guard.
• 12:04
  But I mean, I think this guy is not legit, but who am I?
