    There have been so many speculations about who "the beast", the "son of perdition" may be, but, did you know that if one identifies correctly whom the son of perdition is today, that person will be banned from this and every other Christian forum on the net? I know because it's happened to me.

    It stands to reason that it should be thus, in light of the scripture in Revelation which says, "the beast causeth "all" to receive and accept him". So then, obviously if all are accepting of the beast today, then "all" will not allow one such as myself to speak negatively about the beast whom they've accepted.

    To prove my point: Go ahead!.....Ask me whom the beast; the son of perdition is! :type:

    I'll bite. Who do you think it is?

    Personally, I don't think he's come to the forefront yet, if he's alive. BUT I am curious about your thoughts.

    I'd suggest you've answered your own speculation, as "all" do not "receive and accept" anyone, today, that I'm aware of. Got any good candidates on whom this might be, this universally accepted one?? Kofi?? Lance Armstrong?? President Putin?? President Bush?? King What's-His- Face?? Premier Who-knows-who?? Pope Benedict XVI?? 'Tiger' Woods?? Bill Gates?? Billy Graham?? Nah, He's probably gettin' too old! Mother Teresa?? Oh, never mind- I forgot, she's no longer with us. Gee, I've plumb run out of candidates. :rolleyes: Guess I'll just have to wait a bit longer, and observe from 'above'. :rolleyes:

    Unless it's Judas, the only person in Scripture identified with that appellation.

    Ok, after a very intense investigation, in which the latest scholars were consulted, and interviewed.....

    And after considering all the people in the world that could possibly fit the biblical qualifications.....

    And after yrs of bible study and college classes on eschatology, I have finally figured out who the beast is.....
