Watchman

As for the Dajal, I believe the fight between the beast and false prophet against Yeshua may be the battle at Har Megiddo when Yeshua comes to take the kingdoms of the world and destroy the beast and false prophet.

So in my understanding viewing from Bible prophecy and admittedly what little I know of Islamic eschatology is:

12th Imam = false prophet (rises out of the earth [well at Jamkaran mosque]) or possibly Esu
Esu = man of sin (antichrist in Christianity) or possibly false prophet
Dajal = Yeshua whom the Mahdi and Esu will fight against and be defeated by at Har Megiddo.

I personally don't agree with Joel Richardson's views and see the 12th Imam as separate from Esu, who appears after the rise of the 12th Mahdi. I also believe that the Dajal will be fought against by both of these.

Where I differ is in the apparent 180 degree difference in the Quran's layout and the Bible's. According to scripture, there will be two end-time personalities that will take power with signs and lying wonders. These are both introduced in Revelation 13.

Man of Sin (Revelation 13:1-4)
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

False Prophet (Revelation 13:11-13)
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men

These two work together to bring the world under their control. With the ability to call fire from heaven and other such "miracles," mixed with the fear of death, many will willingly follow them.

errrm no, he obv hasnt studied it proper. madhdi is the 12th imam, and jesus is a seperate person. who is is named esu in the noble quran. and he will appear after mehdi appearence. the antichrist is the dajal in the noble quran and it will be mehdi and esu (jesus) who will destroy the antichrist (dajal) and bring peace and untiy amongst all creeds of gods creation.. dudes do your own research berfore taking this as information, it looks like is designed to brainwash you. peace
