Who did the Reformers identify as the antichrist?

I like the part where the guy goes: The papacy's been around for centuries-it was only supposed to last for 3 1/2 years according to the antichrist's reign during the tribulation of Revelation.
Look up 'prophetic years' which in prophecy hold to the day=year principle..

It was a humorous, anecdotal response to the papacy lasting through the centuries, while the tribulation only lasts 3 1/2 years. But you know that. The point you're making is? Could you explain it better?

1. See 'vicar of Christ'...
2. Pope has state, so temporal kingdom, see 'Vatican'..
3. Not scriptural...
4. Look up 'Third Temple' they want to make and we shall see if the bishop of Rome shows...

A vicar is not... The Christ.

The pope shall not... be king of the whole earth, which is the requirement of Bible prophecy about Christ Jesus.

No. 3 most definitely IS... Scriptural. You're saying it is not is propaganda against God's Word. The Office of MESSIAH requires... that He be born of the king tribe (Judah) of the house of David. That dumps ANY idea that it could be a Catholic pope.

The deceived Jews in Jerusalem are prepared to build their 3rd temple for the coming of MESSIAH, not the office of a pope.

All you are doing is pushing the propaganda of the failed old reformer's doctrines of 16th century Europe, just because of hatred against the Catholic Church.

Thank you hobie for pointing out what the Reformers believed.
But in the last hundred or two hundred years a lot of new ideas have appeared.
Tons of new books and podcasts about Endtimes are available now.

One thing is sure, those Reformers that you mentioned read and knew the BIBLE.
They didn't just read books about the topic.
Plus they went out and preached the Gospel and advanced God's Kingdom.
We saw mighty genuine Revivals and Awakenings
I have confidence in those Reformers and the old school teachings and preachings.

But I have no confidence in most of the modern teachings.
