Here's what SCRIPTURE says concerning this horn:
Daniel 8:8 Therefore the male goat grew very great; but when he became strong, the large horn was broken, and in place of it four notable ones came up toward the four winds of heaven. 9 And out of one of them came a little horn which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Glorious Land.
The "goat" was the Greece of Alexander The Great. After his death, his empire was divided between his 4 top generals, Seleucus, Ptolemy, Lysimachus, & Cassander. Scripture follows the kingdoms of Seleucus & Ptolemy right up to when Rome took them over. Those 2 kingdoms fought almost-constantly til Rome came along.
it's likely the antichrist will come from the descendants of someone in the Ptolemaic kingdom, as it ruled Egypt & Judea til Rome did. Now, let's see further Scripture about that little horn.
Daniel 8:
10 And it grew up to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the ground, and trampled them. 11 He even exalted himself as high as the Prince of the host; and by him the daily sacrifices were taken away, and the place of f]">[f]His sanctuary was cast down. 12 Because of transgression, an army was given over to the horn to oppose the daily sacrifices; and he cast truth down to the ground. He did all this and prospered.
13 Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who was speaking, “How long will the vision be, concerning the daily sacrifices and the transgression of desolation, the giving of both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled underfoot?”
14 And he said to me, “For two thousand three hundred days; then the sanctuary shall be cleansed.”
Now, we see these events simply haven't yet happened. While some popes had great power, none ruled most of the world, none invaded Israel, and none interfered with the sacrifices.
The "abomination of desolation" will be when the antichrist enters the new temple the Jews will build in Jerusalem set up his statue in it & declare himself to be God. Very shortly after that, the great trib will begin.
So, YOUR imagination is 'WAY off-course!

1. You shave your face, from looking at your picture. The Torah instructs us to have beards, and to not destroy their corners. This relates to set-apartness.
2. I presume that because you think you do not have to obey the Torah, you do not wear tzitzit on a four cornered garment. This also relates to set-apartness.
3. I presume that because you think you do not have to obey the Torah, you have not affixed mezuzot on your doorposts or gates. This also relates to set-apartness.
4. I presume that because you think you do not have to obey the Torah, that you think you are not obligated to share with the poor. This relates to doing "good".
5. I presume that because you think you do not have to obey the Torah, that perhaps you think charging your brother interest on debts is okay, which is never mentioned in the New Testament.
6. I presume that because you think you do not have to obey the Torah, you are not aware that having sex with a woman while she is menstruating is sin.
7. I presume that because you think you do not have to obey the Torah, you are unaware that possessing paper money and fiat currency is sin, which fulfills the mark of the beast prophecy.
These are just a few example of sins I presume you commit because you have discarded the Torah. -

You pick and choose what parts of the Torah you want to believe as some sort of self-righteousness. But we do not have to live like that anymore. -

And if you want a lengthy explanation also identifying the beasts of Daniel and Revelation read this one, The Identity of the Beast of Revelation, the Antichrist, the Prostitute of Babylon, the Mark of the Beast, and the Meaning of 666 | Wisdom of God . -

I am in the Truth, if I denied the Truth of God, I would be a liar like you and your father, the Devil, you are a seed of him. You were born only from the Devil, you were not born of God, you were not born of the water and of the Spirit, reason by which you speak and write only tares by the spirit of Devil within you.
The messages I have posted here in many topics, and also out of here, proof the contrary of what you are saying about myself. You say that because you are possessed by the spirit of lie, the spirit of Devil, by the way, all things you have preached here and out of here are false, you are a liar, a deceiver, a stumbling block.
Get behind us, Satan! You are a stumblingblock in the path of a true Christian people, your thinking is from a human and satanic perspective, not from God’s perspective.
Now, even now, henceforwards, Satan will be cast down into the bottomless pit, but his followers will be cast into the hell's fire. You are lost.
