Responding to Bradley Campbell of God Love's Mormon's: "4 Reasons the Great Apostasy is a False Doctrine of Mormonism"
Introduction Four months ago, God Loves Mormons posted a YouTube video with the title 4 Reasons the Great Apostasy is a False Doctrine of Mormonism, in which they explored critical perspectives on a fundamental belief held by the Latter-day Saint Faith. The video purports to delve into how the idea of a falling away (apostasy) of the primitive Christian faith is false biblically, historically,…

Trump is the antichrist
I am not a Biblehoe/religious person in anyway, but I just wanted to prove a point since Christians believe that Trump is their savior for some reason. Here are some quotes from the Bible I found that appear to refer to Trump. A few events towards the end haven’t occurred yet, so report back to me later this year if they come to pass.
John 2:22
Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.
Trump is everything Jesus was not. Jesus was all about love and kindness while Trump does everything to harm others. He lies, cheats, steals, and has no empathy for others, and does not regret his actions. Many are dying because of his actions, yet all he cares about is reopening the country so he can make money.
John 4:3
and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.
So, evil worthy of the title antichrist already existed. This implies that there has been antichrists before. Hitler is a perfect example of one that once existed and was defeated by good.
John 2:18
Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour.
This refers to the 2016 election when Trump and the Republicans won. It also confirms that there is not one antichrist but many. This is a warning, because with so many antichrists in power, the situation will get dire.
John 1:7
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
These are the false prophets like Pence and the evangelicals who claim to love Jesus, but only use him as a scapegoat for their cruel behavior. They spread their twisted ideals, lies, and corrupt others. Fox News is a perfect example of this behavior.
Daniel 7:8
While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering great boasts.
He is describing a horrible person not a demon. He is saying that the person is so awful that they resemble a monster. Also, Trump has a big ego since he boasts about himself more than any other human being would even though he has done many bad things that have made a ton of people hate him.
Matthew 24:24
For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.
Trump and the Republicans promised people many things, but they never delivered. They only made things worse. They misled many voters and the electoral college resulting in him winning, and Republicans getting in power throughout the country.
Thessalonians 2:3-4
Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.
Trump believes he is above the law, and he causes nothing but destruction to america and the rest of the world. The temple of God refers to the oval office in this case. Also, Trump called himself the chosen one at some point. He is chosen, but not in the way he thinks. America will learn from him, and make itself better as a result.
Daniel 7:7-8
After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns. While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering great boasts.
The horns refer to how Trump keeps doing more and more evil. We focus on one evil thing he is doing, but then something else happens and it all piles up into one giant mess. Meanwhile, Trump never stops uttering nonsense.
Daniel 8:9-12
Out of one of them came forth a rather small horn which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Beautiful Land. It grew up to the host of heaven and caused some of the host and some of the stars to fall to the earth, and it trampled them down. It even magnified itself to be equal with the Commander of the host; and it removed the regular sacrifice from Him, and the place of His sanctuary was thrown down
Trump’s horrible influence keeps spreading throughout the country. Meanwhile, he slowly loses support, and everything gets chaotic hence the ‘sanctuary thrown down’ part. Republicans keep making sacrifices for him, yet it only damages them in the long-run.
Daniel 11:36-45
Then the king will do as he pleases, and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god and will speak monstrous things against the God of gods; and he will prosper until the indignation is finished, for that which is decreed will be done. He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers or for the desire of women, nor will he show regard for any other god; for he will magnify himself above them all. But instead he will honor a god of fortresses, a god whom his fathers did not know; he will honor him with gold, silver, costly stones and treasures
Trump does what he what he wants, and believes that he is above everyone and everything including the law. He does not care about those around them, and will keep acting this way until he is removed from office. All he cares about is his money.
Revelation 13:1-10
And the dragon stood on the sand of the seashore.Then I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names. And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast
The dragon may refer to Russia, along with McConnell, Barr, and any that are keeping him in power. Even though impeachment did damage, he and his supporters merely shrugged it off. Everyone is amazed that he is still in power, no matter how they feel about him. The media and the people still focus heavily on him.
Thessalonians 2:6-10
And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming
The truth will eventually be revealed. He will eventually be defeated by the democrats in power and the american people. Also, the virus is restraining him, because he can’t have his rallies and do everything he wants, because a lot of states refuse to comply with his demands. There are also a lot of investigations going on behind the scenes that will eventually reveal all sorts of information. The question is when.
Daniel 7:26-27
But the court will sit for judgment, and his dominion will be taken away, annihilated and destroyed forever. Then the sovereignty, the dominion and the greatness of all the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be given to the people of the saints of the Highest One; His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions will serve and obey Him.
This refers to the supreme court looking at Trump’s taxes and the Muller Report. I believe that New York will get them and it will do damage. The real question is whether or not the House will get the Muller Report and if this and the tax returns have the power to remove him from office before the election. After he is out of office, the democrats will take control and they and the people will work to create a better government. The people will follow Biden and work with him to make america a great country.
Daniel 11:45
He will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
Trump will try to get elected and escape from his punishment, but in the end, no one will be there for him. He will be forgotten even by the Republicans who once did everything to support him. This seems extremely likely given how his polls are dropping rapidly. Everyone will be ready to move on by the time this mess is over.
Revelation 7:14
And the angel said to me, “Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns. “The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and go to destruction. And those who dwell on the earth, whose name has not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will wonder when they see the beast, that he was and is not and will come. Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits
People will wonder if Trump is the worst to come. They will brace themselves for the possibility of another antichrist, and do what they can to make a better system in the meantime.
If it actually turns out like this, I may believe some of the Bible is actually credible. I hope it ends like this though, because we can’t survive another 4 years of Trump.
