Hello Friends,
Join me on our journey with the video series from my book, "God's Fishermen, Satan's Hunters," as we discover Satan's final hunter (Antichrist). We will also discover:
+ What region the Antichrist will rise from at the end of the age.
+ How Daniel 7 and Revelation 13 confirm the region of the Antichrist's kingdom (10 kings).
+ The literal references of the Antichrist's regions and names according to the biblical prophets.

Hello, friends. I'm Chadwick Harvey, and this is Faithful Performance — a weekly testimony of the biblical prophets and how they perfectly correlate with the current events of today. Thank you for joining us. In this episode, we continue our book series on *God's Fishermen, Satan's Hunters: The Unspoken Biblical Prophecy That Is Terrorizing the World*. This is episode nine, and we will be discussing the origin, the literal names, and the primary religion of the Antichrist — Satan's final hunter.
For those who haven't followed along, let me offer a summary of the series that leads us to this point. It all begins in Genesis 3:15, where the Lord prophesied to Satan that He would put enmity between the woman's seed — that is, Israel's seed — and Satan's seed, which is the hunter's seed. So we have in Genesis 3:15 what we might call the fisherman prophecy: the seed of the fishermen and the seed of Satan's hunters. It is essential to understand that there was going to be enmity between Israel and Satan — that lineage, that pure royal seed that descended to Jesus, Yeshua the Messiah.
From Genesis 3:15, our series moved into the everlasting covenants: the Abrahamic, the Davidic, and the New Covenant. Understanding these covenants is critical, both theologically and in relation to the prophecies of the Holy Bible. Everything is about God fulfilling His everlasting covenants to Abraham, David, and through the New Covenant — which is obviously Jesus.
We discovered that the Abrahamic covenant contained two great promises: the seed promise and the promised land promise — a literal promised land that will be fulfilled at Jesus's second coming. The Davidic covenant built and extended upon the Abrahamic. David was promised a seed from his own loins, and that seed would rule over the promised land of the Abrahamic covenant over the children of Israel. We know from Matthew 1 that seed, that Son, is Jesus — "son of Abraham, son of David" — pointing us back to the Abrahamic and Davidic covenants, which have not yet been fulfilled by Jesus. Then we have the New Covenant, which is Yeshua, Jesus. We are all saved by the blood of the New Covenant, but we are not yet living in it, because in Ezekiel 36 and Jeremiah 31 — the New Covenant prophecy — it is made with the children of Israel, the house of Israel and the house of Judah. Once they accept Him as their Savior at the end of the age and He returns, then we will be living in the New Covenant during the thousand-year reign, the millennial reign of the Messiah.
The Abrahamic, Davidic, and New Covenants build and extend upon one another, and Yeshua is the fulfillment of all three. Gentiles are grafted into those covenants. Romans 11 gives us a clear picture of that. Ephesians 2 says we are brought into the commonwealth of Israel when we accept Jesus as our Messiah — we are no longer Gentiles, but part of the commonwealth of Israel, which reverts back to Exodus 12 and the congregation of the children of Israel when they left Egypt. Paul is simply telling us that once we receive Jesus as our Messiah, we are into the commonwealth of Israel. Galatians 3:26–29 confirms this: if you are a seed of Christ, you are a seed of Abraham and an heir according to the promise. That promise is the Abrahamic covenant, which builds into the Davidic, which includes David's everlasting throne upon which Jesus will sit, and we will be living in the New Covenant during the millennial kingdom.
We then examined the prophecy of the fishermen and the hunters, found in Jeremiah 16, which goes back to Genesis 3:15. The Lord declared that there would be a greater exodus — a return of the Jewish people from the nations to Israel, aliyah to Israel, at the end of the age. He would accomplish this by two means: first the fishermen would be released to fish them back, and then the hunters would provoke them back. We are seeing this prophecy unfold right now, as we have documented with statistics — what has occurred in Europe, what is going to occur in America, and across the world — provoking the Jewish people to make aliyah back to the promised land.
We also discovered God's original fishermen: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, and then Yeshua through the New Covenant. Then came Satan's original hunters: Nimrod, Ishmael, Esau, Goliath, and the Herodian dynasty. Just as God's original fishermen represent Israel, Satan's original hunters represent the nations surrounding Israel — those ancient enemies. This is, as the biblical prophets would have understood it, a biblical world war. Examining the names and regions of Nimrod, Ishmael, Esau, Goliath, and the others gives us a prophetic framework for understanding who the Antichrist is, where he rises from, and what the Holy Bible literally calls him in Scripture — which we will go into shortly.
We also explored the mystery of aliyah — the return of the Jewish people occurring on the blood moon tetrads. There have been four blood moon tetrads in the last five hundred years that fell on the Lord's feast days of Passover and Tabernacles, and in connection with the last three, a major aliyah took place. We are seeing that same movement now. The end-of-age fishermen are the Jewish people themselves, fishing their own people back, while the end-of-age hunters — rising from the regions of Satan's original hunters — will provoke the children of Israel to return. We discussed the aliyah from Europe driven by chaos, civil unrest, government anarchy, terrorism, and the broader instability of the Middle East that has pushed many Muslim people to seek asylum in Europe — and with them, radicals and extremists. This produced a measurable aliyah in 2014 and 2015, unlike anything seen in decades. We also addressed the coming aliyah from America, as the infiltration of anti-Israel ideology into government, education, and the wider culture produces rising anti-Semitism that will eventually provoke the Jewish people to return home and fulfill this prophecy.
That brings us to today: the final hunter, Satan's final hunter — what the Western church calls the Antichrist. He is against Christ, but this goes all the way back to Genesis 3:15, which declared enmity between God's seed and Satan's seed, between the fishermen and the hunters. At the end of the age, a final hunter will rise. This is rooted in Satan himself. John 8:44 tells us Satan is a liar and a murderer from the beginning. The biblical war is about the everlasting covenants, because God has put His name in Jerusalem and made His covenants with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, and through Yeshua. The battle for Jerusalem is Satan's attempt to make God a liar — though of course God is not a liar, and He will fulfill these covenants. Satan's strategy throughout history has been to come against the covenant people: he came against Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, and Yeshua through the original hunters; he uses the end-of-age hunters against the end-of-age fishermen; and finally, the Antichrist will come against the Jewish people and against all believers. Revelation 12 speaks of the offspring of the woman — those who are Gentile-born believers after the Jewish people flee to the mountains, which we will cover in next week's video.
This is what it is all about. The battle is for the everlasting covenants. That is why it is so important to hold this framework when reading the prophets, the Torah, and the Gospels — everywhere you look, it is about the Lord Yeshua, the Almighty, fulfilling the promises the Father ordained to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and David through His Son.
Today we will see all of this through the prophecies of Daniel, Ezekiel, and Isaiah, which characterize and identify who this final hunter truly is. We constantly see people labeling Donald Trump as the Antichrist, or Obama, or Putin. This is nonsense — it is ignorance according to the Scriptures. The Scriptures clearly state that this is a Middle Eastern affair. This is a biblical war. I am not saying America, China, and Russia will have no involvement — of course they will — but on a very secondary level. This is about the ancient enemies of Israel, their regions, coming against God's people, as it has always been from Genesis to Revelation. It is about the biblical world, not Europe, not America, not China. Israel is the center point — Jerusalem especially — and then the immediate surrounding nations, which the prophets identified thoroughly.
We must get into the mindset of the prophets, understanding prophecy the way they would have understood it through the Holy Spirit. They would have returned to Genesis 10 and 11 and understood it from the Table of Nations. This final hunter will rise up at the end of the age. An agreement will be made that begins the seven years, which we will address in next week's video. Then there will be a three-and-a-half-year marker of extreme tribulation — the worst time in world history according to the prophecies. And critically, this final hunter will rule over the same regions we have traced through the original hunters. That is why we studied them in the order we did: we must understand the regions that Nimrod, Ishmael, Esau, and Goliath ruled over, because we must understand —
