From Man of Sin to Man of Satan It is amazing how much God has revealed to us in His word, the Bible. It’s all there, right in front of us, if we’d only look. Ezekiel 28 is one of the most remarkable of ALL the passages on the Antichrist. From a personal “inside” perspective, it rivals 2 Thessalonians 2 and Revelation.

Ezekiel and Daniel are alike and different in many ways. Yes, both were Major Prophets called by God. The history we learn about these prophets should teach us many things that we as Christians are called to know.

The difference is apparent when we look at the meaning of the names. Daniel means “God is Judge” or God is my Judge”, whereas Ezekiel means “God strengthens”

unthinkable prophetic acts that God commanded for Ezekiel to perform throughout his ministry were meant to be sensational scenes that demonstrated what was to come for the Israelites. Ezekiel, illustrating the siege of Jerusalem was one of the first prophetic acts God required Ezekiel to complete.
