The subject of the Antichrist—who or even now "what" he will be, when he is coming and if he is already on the scene—has been discussed by many around the world, regardless of their faith. Would you recognize him?

Now, author and minister Mark Biltz takes an in-depth look at some of the questions surrounding the Antichrist in his soon-to-be-released book, Decoding the Antichrist and the End Times: What the Bible Says and What the Future Holds.

For the past 2,000 years, Biltz says, people have been anxiously trying to analyze who the Antichrist might be and when he might be revealed. Many people have made preposterous claims, and of course, they have all been wrong.

"If people aren't careful, they can get caught up in the debate and spend so much time arguing with other Christians over the details that they don't accomplish anything for the kingdom!" Biltz said. "Decoding the Antichrist and the End Times will help readers see the big picture of what has happened historically, what is unfolding this very moment, and what the future holds concerning the Antichrist based on the unfolding purposes of God."

Decoding the Antichrist and the End Times asks deep questions such as the following:

• What does the Bible say about the Antichrist, his tactics and his motivation?
• Will he be a Muslim, a Jew or a Christian—or something else?
• Will the Antichrist work through modern technology to take over?

"I believe we are truly entering the final chapter on this world's stage, and the curtain will soon be coming down or rolled away," Biltz said. "I am not claiming to know how many pages are left in God's script, but those who have eyes to see and ears to hear what the Spirit of God is saying know it is time to start packing your bags, spiritually speaking. It's time to listen for the sound of the shofar!"

Mark Biltz is founder of El Shaddai Ministries and a well-known and popular commentator on the feasts of the Lord. In fact, he has produced a series of DVDs on the feasts that have gone around the world. Biltz is also the author of Blood Moons and God's Day Timer. His research and theories have led to guest appearances on both radio and television as well as being featured on the covers of magazines.

Decoding the Antichrist and the End Times, set for release March 5, is published by FrontLine, an imprint of Charisma House, which has published books that challenge, encourage, teach and equip Christians, including 14 New York Times' best-sellers.
