End Times – Book of Daniel: 11 Part 2 Antiochus Epiphanes and the Coming Antichrist
This sermon finishes Daniel 11’s historical section, tracing the wars between the Seleucid “king of the North” and the Ptolemaic “king of the South” until Antiochus IV Epiphanes emerges—a “vile” ruler who gains power through flattery, deceit, and bribery, repeatedly invades Egypt, is checked by Rome, then turns in rage against the Jewish people and the holy covenant. The pastor presents Antiochus as a detailed type of the future Antichrist, noting parallels such as deceptive covenants, betrayal, persecution of Israel, and a coming abomination of desolation, and uses the fulfilled precision of these 375 years of prophecy as a faith-strengthening preview of endtime events still ahead. He urges believers to resist last-days deception by being saturated in Scripture, walking as the salt of the earth and light of the world, and recognizing that the final man of sin cannot be revealed until the church’s restraining influence is removed.

About In the Word
In The Word is the teaching ministry of Gold Country Calvary Chapel in Grass Valley, CA, with a strong emphasis on the whole counsel of God’s Word. Scripture is taught book by book, chapter by chapter, and verse by verse—covering both Old and New Testaments. Areas of focus include doctrine (the essential principles of Scripture), prophecy (future events), theology (the nature of God), Christology (the person and work of Christ), pneumatology (the Holy Spirit), soteriology (salvation), ecclesiology (the purpose of the church), and eschatology (the future of the church). Pastor Mike Warren has studied prophecy for more than 40 years, and his ongoing series, Prophecy Updates, continues to provide timely and relevant insight. Listeners can explore the six-part series recorded years ago—which remains strikingly applicable today—as well as more recent updates that highlight how prophecy is unfolding in real time. Topics include Psalm 83, Ezekiel 38 & 39, the rapture, the deception of the antichrist, and other key end-times prophecies. In addition, Pastor Mike’s Doctrine Study provides a clear, systematic overview of the essential principles of Scripture—foundational truths for every believer. These teachings are being used by both laypeople and ministers around the world to strengthen faith and equip the church.
