As global events accelerate toward prophetic fulfillment, Pastor Billy Crone and Prophecy Watchers host Mondo Gonzales are sounding a bold and urgent alarm: the world is being primed for the rise of the Antichrist, with global elites playing a pivotal role in laying the groundwork.
In a recent compelling discussion, Crone dismantles long-held myths about the Antichrist, clarifies his identity according to Scripture and calls Christians to action during these critical days of prophecy.

A Man, Not a Myth
Popular culture has often painted the Antichrist as a grotesque figure—horned, monstrous and filled with terror. Yet, Crone offers a sobering reminder that Scripture portrays him quite differently. He is not the stuff of nightmares, but rather a charismatic, persuasive leader who will win the hearts and minds of the nations.
“He’s going to be a powerful man,” Crone states, stressing that the Antichrist will rise to power through deception and political manipulation, not through force or fear.
Global Infrastructure for the Antichrist’s Reign
In his examination of current global events, Crone highlights the undeniable efforts of key world figures to construct the very framework for the Antichrist’s rule. Influential leaders such as Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, George Soros, King Charles, Elon Musk and Yuval Harari are shaping a world that mirrors the prophecy found in Scripture.
From advances in technology and surveillance to the push for a cashless society, these powerful elites are unwittingly, yet undeniably, creating the infrastructure for a one-world government and economic system—the foundation of the Antichrist’s future reign.
The Urgency of Evangelism
Instead of succumbing to fear or anxiety over these developments, Crone urges believers to see this moment as a divine opportunity for bold, unwavering evangelism. The growing signs of prophetic fulfillment should not paralyze the church in fear, but spur us on to greater urgency in sharing the Gospel.
“This is not the time to be silent. This is the time to share the Gospel like never before,” Crone declares. The time for passive faith is over—now is the time to speak up, stand firm and boldly proclaim Christ.
Dispelling End-Times Myths
A popular end-times myth that Crone addresses head-on is the idea that figures like Donald Trump could be the Antichrist. He makes it clear that such speculation is misguided, pointing to the truth in Scripture that born-again believers will not be present to witness the rise of the Antichrist. “The Bible clearly states that the church will be taken up in the Rapture before the Antichrist assumes power,” Crone explains.
This clarifies once and for all that the Antichrist will emerge after the church’s departure, during the Tribulation period.
Final Warning and Encouragement
As we witness the intensifying global reset, technological control and increasing political unity, it is impossible to ignore the unmistakable signs pointing toward the fulfillment of Revelation’s prophecies. Yet, as Crone reminds us with hope-filled assurance, “Our hope is not in this world—it’s in Jesus Christ.” Christians must remain vigilant, prayerful and unwavering in their mission to spread the Gospel in these final days.
The signs are clear, and the time is short—let us not delay in sharing the life-changing message of Jesus Christ before it’s too late.
