Who, or what verse of prophecy say's that the man of sin would be a Jew or that Jews would accept the man of sin?
The man of lawlesness will come from the most lawless people in the world....The Arabs and the Muslim's!
The anti-christ is an Assyrian...

Nope. Not Bingo.
Just because the Assyrian is the oppressor doesn't mean that he is the antichrist! That is the crux of the entire matter. The antichrist is the worthless shepherd that scatters the sheep, not the wolves
eating the sheep.
Why is the Assyrian oppressing Israel? Because they refuse to serve him - and God wants Israel to be under the yoke of Babylon until 70 years have passed. Jeremiah 27-29 says that God says, you
shall serve Babylon (not "will", "
shall" - meaning you
must serve Babylon) . Israel is not serving the Assyrian because of the false prophets, Zedekiah and Ahab, who are saying that they must not serve Babylon/ the Assyrian (which is what the "pro- Islamic antichrist theory are telling people).
In a historical template of events: Zedekiah and Ahab are wicked princes of the covenant (Israel). These are the worthless shepherds. They sign a 7 year covenant with the Assyrian which allows for the creation of the 3rd temple. In the middle of the week, 3.5 years in, they break the covenant with the king of the north/ the assyrian by making a covenant with death and hell - the covenant with Egypt/ the pharoah/ king of the south - so that when the overwhelming scourge passes by, we will be saved (Isaiah 28:15). This is what makes the Assyrian angry and start to persecute the saints- this is the overwhelming scourge that could have been avoided had Israel just served Babylon/ the Assyrian.
Jeremiah 27
27 In the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah[sup][
a][/sup] the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord. [sup]2 [/sup]Thus the Lord said to me: “Make yourself straps and yoke-bars, and put them on your neck. [sup]3 [/sup]Send word[sup][
b][/sup] to the king of Edom, the king of Moab, the king of the sons of Ammon, the king of Tyre, and the king of Sidon by the hand of the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah. [sup]4 [/sup]Give them this charge for their masters: ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel:
This is what you shall say to your masters: [sup]5 [/sup]“It is I who by my great power and my outstretched arm have made the earth, with the men and animals that are on the earth, and I give it to whomever it seems right to me. [sup]6 [/sup]Now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and I have given him also the beasts of the field to serve him. [sup]7 [/sup]All the nations shall serve him and his son and his grandson, until the time of his own land comes. Then many nations and great kings shall make him their slave.
[sup]8 [/sup]“‘“But if any nation or kingdom will not serve this Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon,
I will punish that nation with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, declares the Lord, until I have consumed it by his hand. [sup]9 [/sup]So do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your dreamers, your fortune-tellers, or your sorcerers, who are saying to you, ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon.’ [sup]10 [/sup]For it is a lie that they are prophesying to you, with the result that you will be removed far from your land, and I will drive you out, and you will perish. [sup]11 [/sup]But any nation that will bring its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave on its own land, to work it and dwell there, declares the Lord.”’”
[sup]12 [/sup]To Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke in like manner: “Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people and live. [sup]13 [/sup]Why will you and your people die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, as the Lord has spoken concerning any nation that will not serve the king of Babylon? [sup]14 [/sup]
Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are saying to you, ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon,’ for it is a lie that they are prophesying to you. [sup]15 [/sup]I have not sent them, declares the Lord, but they are prophesying falsely in my name, with the result that I will drive you out and you will perish, you and the prophets who are prophesying to you.”
[sup]16 [/sup]Then I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, “Thus says the Lord: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who are prophesying to you, saying, ‘Behold, the vessels of the Lord's house will now shortly be brought back from Babylon,’ for it is a lie that they are prophesying to you. [sup]17 [/sup]Do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon and live. Why should this city become a desolation? [sup]18 [/sup]If they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is with them, then let them intercede with the Lord of hosts, that the vessels that are left in the house of the Lord, in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem may not go to Babylon. [sup]19 [/sup]For thus says the Lord of hosts concerning the pillars, the sea, the stands, and the rest of the vessels that are left in this city, [sup]20 [/sup]which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take away, when he took into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem— [sup]21 [/sup]thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left in the house of the Lord, in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem: [sup]22 [/sup]They shall be carried to Babylon and remain there until the day when I visit them, declares the Lord. Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.”
and Jeremiah 29
[sup]10 [/sup]“For thus says the Lord:
When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will visit you, and I will fulfill to you my promise and bring you back to this place. [sup]11 [/sup]For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare[sup][
b][/sup] and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. [sup]12 [/sup]
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. [sup]13 [/sup]You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. [sup]14 [/sup]I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.
[***This is where the 3rd Temple is started. 70 years after the start of Israel, 11-29-47 to 11-26-16 (70 lunar years, 25200 days), starts the gathering leading to 12-24/25-2016, Hanukah lands on Christmas. It is because of people spouting off "God says, don't serve the Assyrian/ king of Babylon" that gets people attacked/ persecuted in the timeframe between 12-21-12 and 2016.]
[sup]15 [/sup]“Because you have said, ‘The Lord has raised up prophets for us in Babylon,’ [sup]16 [/sup]thus says the Lord concerning the king who sits on the throne of David, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your kinsmen who did not go out with you into exile: [sup]17 [/sup]‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, behold, I am sending on them sword, famine, and pestilence, and I will make them like vile figs that are so rotten they cannot be eaten. [sup]18 [/sup]
I will pursue them with sword, famine, and pestilence, and will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, a terror, a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have driven them, [sup]19 [/sup]because they did not pay attention to my words, declares the Lord, that I persistently sent to you by my servants the prophets, but you would not listen, declares the Lord.’ [sup]20 [/sup]Hear the word of the Lord, all you exiles whom I sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon: [sup]21 [/sup]
‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah and Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who are prophesying a lie to you in my name: Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shall strike them down before your eyes. [sup]22 [/sup]Because of them this curse shall be used by all the exiles from Judah in Babylon: “The Lord make you like Zedekiah and Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire,” [sup]23 [/sup]because they have done an outrageous thing in Israel, they have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives, and they have spoken in my name lying words that I did not command them. I am the one who knows, and I am witness, declares the Lord.’”
Notice that in verse 22, Zedekiah and Ahab are thrown into the fire (
just like the false prophet and the antichrist are thrown into the lake of fire Rev. 19:20).
