Download As PDF : The Islamic Antichrist Debunked A Comprehensive Critique of the Muslim Antichrist Theory Chris White 9780991232949 Books
Never before has such a complete refutation of the Islamic Antichrist theory been in print. Chris White critiques all the major arguments from Islamic Antichrist proponents such as Joel Richardson and Walid Shoebat in a respectful but poignant way. He uses sound methods of biblical interpretation to show that the Islamic Antichrist theory is seriously flawed. This book refutes all the major arguments for the Islamic Antichrist theory and reveals new discoveries about the origins of Islamic end times beliefs which call into question claims of Islamic Antichrist theorists concerning the supposed similarities of figures like The Mahdi and the Antichrist, Isa and the False Prophet, and the Dajjal and Jesus. You will never see the Islamic Antichrist theory the same way again. Topics Covered in the book The Islamic Empire being in view in the legs of the statue of Daniel 2 and the last beast of Daniel 7 The “people of the prince” in Daniel 9 referring to Muslims The “Assyrian” In Isaiah and Micah Types of Antichrist Mystery Babylon being Saudi Arabia The Mark of the Beast being Arabic letters instead of numbers The 7th head of Revelation 17 being the Islamic Empire Gog as the Antichrist Various refutations of the theories concerning the Islamic Mahdi being the same as the Antichrist And much more

It is an inconsistent book. I went into it favoring the prewrath or post trib positions, and while I was not fully convinced of Islamic Anti-Christ positions (IAC for short), did favor them.In some chapters, I agree with the author’s points, and thought he presented them well.
One chapter on the mark of the beast I had already read almost word for word in two pro-IAC books. It seems that IAC in general has dropped a speculative interpretation of 666 as Arabic letters. I guess he hadn’t read those.
But in half a dozen places he protests against giving his own view, and then does it anyway because it must be true. Other places he admits his idea is pure speculation, but it must be true, since he likes it better. And in others points out that his side has majority backing, so must be true. (As if majority backing equals truth - wasn’t the great majority viewpoint that the Messiah must be coming as a conquering king, not as one suffering death for our sins back in the first century? Jesus was very nearly alone on this point - guess who was right?)
He also is totally wrong about the make up of the Roman army Vespasian and Titus lead. While the early Roman Republic did have only citizen soldiers, that was long past. By this time units had dropped in size to ‘centuries’ of 80 men, and legions of 4800 soldiers plus officers. More legions, but smaller and more maneuverable. While most officers were citizens, few soldiers were. Non-citizen provincials served 16 years in legions named for the country the were formed at to get citizenship (and other goodies) at honorable discharge. When a foreigner earned his way up the ranks to officer, he was expected to buy his citizenship. See Acts 22:23-29, or any of dozens of books on the Roman Army.
He also had a silly reason for beheadings. Couldn’t be because Islam beheads at the drop of a hat. Or a head. It must be because you can’t die any other way during the entire Tribulation/Great Tribulation era. An era famous for people dying literally by the hundreds of millions and even billions by all kinds of means. He also has Christians beheaded by the hundred million even though they were pre-trib raptured.
So all in all he raised or repeats weaknesses in the IAC theory, but comes across as just as weak if not weaker.

The Islamic Antichrist Debunked A Comprehensive Critique of the Muslim Antichrist Theory Chris White 9780991232949 Books Reviews
This book appears to be guilty of taking quotes out of context. The slant the author takes removes even a hint of objectivity. I think there is valid areas of debate on the conclusions but this book falls flat
Substantiates anything he says with the Word of God
This is a very informative and well written book. I would recommend it highly. It points out how easily one might jump to the wrong conclusion on some matters.
Chris' thinking is always clear and to the point. Preparing for my own discussion with Joel Richardson, it was very helpful. I disagree with Chris regarding the nature of the Gog/Magog war (Christ sees at after the Millennium as does scholar Michael Heiser) but his viewpoint is always well reasoned and backed by a biblical perspective. His examination of the Last Roman Emperor was brilliant and enlightening. What I did not come away with with a complete statement of what Chris believes is the alternative view on the identity of the Antichrist, from which set of nations he draws his power, and how he fulfills biblical prophecy better than the Islamic Antichrist theory. Still, a very useful book. Well done Chris.
I agree wholeheartedly with Nelson Walters' review of this book. He does credit White's thinking "outside the box" and also his ability as a writer but some scriptures are stretched to fit his preconceptions. The book is interesting but Shoebat and Richardson have looked at this from an Eastern perspective which I find of equal interest. I was somewhat disappointed in this book but it was thought provoking and worth the read.
Good to read if you are fan of Joel Richardson. Brings an alternative view point. Mind you even this author appears to get it wrong. Interpreting Daniel is hard to get right. Would be good to know how our Lord looked at Daniel. What I like about Joel is how he makes current Middle East situation make sense with prophecy, not trying to manufacture things.
Some good textual points scored, as well as a timely caution not to over-rely upon Islamic sources to explain BIBLICAL end-time prophecy. But the fact that White relegates to APPENDICES the major points of his own view (a Jewish Antichrist, and the Gog-Magog war happening AFTER the Millennial Kingdom) tells me there is no truly coherent view of end-time prophecy being given here. His treatment of Micah 5, the Mark of the Beast, his 'poetic' understanding of 'Babylon by the Sea,' and his hard distinction between king and kingdom in discussing the Seven-headed Beast are idiosyncratic interpretations shared by few other scholars. Too much special pleading here!
It is an inconsistent book. I went into it favoring the prewrath or post trib positions, and while I was not fully convinced of Islamic Anti-Christ positions (IAC for short), did favor them.
