Political prophecies, false prophets in 2020, and the antichrist

Mike declines to speculate on whether current events are setting up the antichrist — he notes he is pre-millennial but recognizes Christians across church history have always believed they were in the last days. He warns against self-focused eschatological speculation, citing that every major war (WWI, WWII) generated plausible antichrist candidates. John's comment that "many antichrists have come already" (1 John 2:18) suggests Satan persistently runs similar playbooks. His main application: the 2020 false prophets (e.g., Kenneth Copeland; he invites viewers to name others) who predicted Trump's re-election and the end of COVID-19 have forfeited credibility permanently. Even subsequent repentance videos do not restore trust; Deuteronomy's criterion is simple — if a prophecy fails, do not trust that prophet again. He mentions a YouTube channel called "It's Me Not Him" as an example of ongoing false prophecy reinforcement.
