Era of Anarchy
- Daily Devotional by Max Lucado
Have you ever heard of the Antichrist? From the old testament book of Daniel: “That leader will make firm an agreement with many people for seven years. He will stop the offerings and sacrifices after three and one-half years. A destroyer will do blasphemous things until the ordered end comes to the destroyed city” (Daniel 9:27).
This is one of the Bible’s earliest references to a time of severe tribulation—seven years in which the entire world will feel the oppression of an evil ruler. Antichrist is the name most used for this scoundrel. He will want people to worship him instead of Jesus, and he will appear on the world stage. This era of anarchy is called the tribulation. Are we in that stage of evil? Not yet, but it seems to be nearing.
