China

If anything good is going to come from this, countries are going to wake up to Chinese corruption and become more self-reliant. I'm very curious how Australia is going to react to this recent threat from China.

CHINA WARNS AUSTRALIA: DROP CORONAVIRUS PROBE OR PAY AN ECONOMIC PRICE

The Australian government’s call for China to explain its bungled handling of the deadly coronavirus pandemic could spark a boycott by Chinese consumers, who may no longer travel and study in Australia or buy major exports including beef and wine.

That was the stark warning delivered Monday by Ambassador Cheng Jingye via an interview published in the Australian Financial Review.​

They also bullied several European countries into keep flights open way too long.

The Bible promotes nationalism (Gen. 11, Rom. 13). God separated the nations at Babel for our sake. The devil has been trying to undo it ever since, but idea of self-reliant local governments has its root in Scripture. Will the world heed this recent warning?

Yes the nations will go to war over this. Revelation 6:4
"Another horse went out, a red one; and its rider was given the power to take peace away from the earth and make people slaughter each other. He was given a great sword.)
Revelation 6:8
"They were given authority to kill one-quarter of the world by war"

I don't believe we're in the Tribulation period yet, not until the Church is raptured. If this rider is the antichrist, I don't think this can be China, as he has to of Roman heritage in some way. I do think there are some prophecy passages that might involve China.

There is no Antichrist, that is a concept, and false. Revelation 6:9-14

9 When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been put to death for proclaiming the Word of God, that is, for bearing witness.
10 They cried out in a loud voice, “Sovereign Ruler, HaKadosh, the True One, how long will it be before you judge the people living on earth and avenge our blood?”
11 Each of them was given a white robe; and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow-servants should be reached, of their brothers who would be killed, just as they had been.
12 Then I watched as he broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake, the sun turned black as sackcloth worn in mourning, and the full moon became blood-red.
13 The stars fell from heaven to earth just as a fig tree drops its figs when shaken by a strong wind.
14 The sky receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved from its place.

Seals 5 and 6 is Heaven's view of Paul's rapture. The dead in Christ are the souls under the alter waiting for their robes of white (glorified bodies). Then immediately when the 6th seal is opened, is the rapture of those alive on earth.
The seals are the opening of the Lamb'sbook of life. The seals are the judgment on the church for becoming apostate, and the whole world has to suffer. Their blood is required at the hands of the saints. The very elect will pray that those days be shortened lest all humanity be killed. The sealed church does absolutely live in the judgment of the seals, for they are the one's who are sealed. When the 7th Seal is opened then Satan will be revealed as the man of sin. There is no Antichrist (human), only Satan the ultimate antichrist being, who has been pretending to be a human for the last 2500 years.
