Larry Dee Harper teaches regarding the understanding the Early Church Fathers had regarding our not-too-distant future when the Antichrist appears on the world scene. Read the articles provided below to see what early Christians knew and what we need to know today—before the Antichrist rises to power.

This article comments on an excerpt from a commentary on the Book of Daniel written by the Early Church Father Hippolytus (A.D. 170–236). Hippolytus was a third-generation disciple of the Apostle John, the Apostle who wrote the Book of Revelation. In this excerpt, Hippolytus discusses the meaning of the last five chapters of the Book of Daniel and how the content of those chapters relates to the appearance of the Antichrist that John describes in the Book of Revelation. In so doing, he provides incredibly detailed insight into the Early Church’s understanding of events related to the End Times. This excerpt is also included in The Advent of Christ and AntiChrist.
This article makes the point that nobody in the Protestant wing of the Church today bothers to refer to any source earlier than the Protestant Reformers. Those who do normally stop at Thomas Aquinas (ca. 1225–1274). The Reformers themselves did not appeal to any source earlier than Augustine (A.D. 354–430). Should anyone take the time to read earlier sources with an open mind, they would find that the literal theory of interpretation—as it is held today—was totally unknown to the Early Church Fathers. The Fathers prior to Origen (ca. A.D. 200) understood their mission was to hand down The Apostolic Teaching just as Jesus Christ delivered it to the Apostles. Those after Origen were busily engaged in “doing theology.”
This is the second in a series of articles that, when complete, will explain how the Prophets concealed the first of seven messages hidden in the Hebrew Scriptures by their use of the ancient Hebrew idioms “build a house,” “raise up a seed,” and “make a name.” The first article in the series appeared in the July 1996 issue. This article explains the meaning and significance of some of the things Moses relates in his historical account of the Flood and the Tower of Babel. The point is, the message concerning “The House” explains the basis on which God expects the Blessed to make a distinction between themselves and the Cursed.
This is the second half of a two-part article that explains what Matthew had in mind when he attributed Matthew 27:9–10 to Jeremiah instead of Zechariah. It does so by outlining the basics of the Canaanite beliefs concerning resurrection that the Prophets were mocking when they explained the things Matthew had in mind. Those things relate to the parabolic pantomime in which “the death” of the Man Jesus Christ graphically depicts “the death” of the man Adam at the End of the Age.
The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon prompted this article. It is based on the premise that Satan has finally let it be known how terrorism factors into his plans. The article reexamines the statements the Early Church Fathers Irenæus and Hippolytus make concerning the Antichrist in light of recent events.
This article looks into the denotative and connotative meanings of the Hebrew and Greek words that are translated “repent” in the Scriptures. It also explains the importance of making a distinction between true repentance and false repentance.
This article explains some biblical passages and parabolic imagery related to the Coronation of Jesus Christ after He was resurrected in the image and likeness of God. It links prophecies in the Book of Zechariah and the Psalms together with statements made by the Apostles Peter, Paul, John, and the author of the Book of Hebrews.
This article explains what the Apostle Paul meant by his quotation of Habakkuk 1:5 in Acts 13:41. It includes an explanation of the parabolic imagery associated with The Harlot Babylon in Revelation 18 and shows that John is just quoting things the Prophets said about The Harlot. The point is, Paul—like the Apostle John and the Prophets—was referring to the devastation of the Earth brought about by the Antichrist.
