If Jesus said that demons can not heal explian the logic of the belief that the "anti-Christ" will bring world peace?

Update:

There seems to be a common Christain belief that

(to quote one person on Y!A)

QUOTE: some people think that the messiah will not come back till the temple is rebuilt. if that is so it will be the antichrist that sits in the temple as God himself and he will bring peace to the whole world and many will be deceived and follow him.

So -- my confusion with the logic of this belief is as follows:

In one New Testament incident Jesus was accused of curing people by demonic powers.

He defended himself by saying that "a nation against itself can no stand" -- that therefore a cure can not be done by demons because it means a demon going against demonic nature.

But here it seems that Christians turn around and say that a demonicaly motivated entity will bring about world peace???

Isn't world peace far more fundamentaly antithetical to the aims of the demonic than the cure of some single person's cold??

In light of what Jesus said about medical demonology -- how can the a

Update 2:

In light of what Jesus said about medical demonology -- how can the anti-Christ possibly bring world peace??

Or - vice versa -- if the anti-Christ is able to bring world peace for the greater evil of turning people from the real God,

then why would an anti-Christ likewise not be able to cure people for the greater evil of turning them away from the real God??

Thus - the allegation that the anti-Christ will bring World Peace supports those who accused Jesus of curing through demons. No?

    The antichrist will not bring peace, since they stand against what Jesus and Jehovah say.(1 John 2:22 & 23) They will be destroyed by Christ in the near future, as well as any who support them. (2 Thess.1:7-9) Once that happens, then world peace will have been accomplished, hence how Jesus can be called 'Prince of Peace'. (Is.9:6, Ps.37:10 & 11)

    Jimmy Carter will become the Antichrist aka Dajjal (8th King in Rev. 17) and he will serve another term in office after the death of Obama (7th king).

    The angel Gabriel told me in Aug. 1973 when i was in Phillipsbrug, Montana that Jimmy Carter will become the Anti-Christ, and that he is going to change his name, and divorce his wife!

    Obama is going to die first and then the Anti-Christ aka Dajjal who was one of the previous 7 Presidents will take his place!

    Rev. 17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, [and] the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

    All 7 kings were all alive until the death of Ronald Reagan June 5, 2004 when George W. Bush was in office ;

    1. Gerald Ford

    2. Jimmy Carter

    3. Ronald Reagan

    4. George H. W. Bush

    5. Bill Clinton

    6. George W. Bush.... is spoken of in the present tense (and one is) because until Reagan died (June 5, 2004) all 7 were alive!

    7. Barack Obama.......and one is yet to come! He will die a few days after he raises taxes!

    Obama is also in Dan. 11:20

    Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes [in] the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

    Rev. 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

    There are many voices in the world . There is a problem with this belief . When they say peace and security , then will the believers in Yehoshua

    Know that their Salvation draweth nigh. To my way of thinking , the anti Christ does not bring lasting peace but a semblance of peace.

    While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape (1 Thes. 5:3).

    Following all out war in the Middle East the world will be looking for someone to bring peace to the region. Enter the man who will be the antichrist. True, he will enforce a seven year peace treaty between Israel and her enemies, but as Revelation 6 states, he is really bent on conquest and soon plunges the entire world into war.

    Its like sovereign says, the anti Christ will be charming and will make seven year peace treaty with Israel, not the peace that comes from G-d when we believe in Christ but the kind of peace that people like John Kerry try to produce. I surmise that Israel wont have much choice but to sign this treaty. within the seven years the anti christ will break this treaty, and then the Jewish people will cry to the Lord G-d for deliverance as the whole world will be arrayed against Israel, and the Lord Christ Himself will descend with a shout at the last trump and deliver Israel from the wickedness of those nations. the prophesy reads like this. "

    I will gather all nations against Israel, and I Myself will fight for her, so that the whole earth will know that "I AM THE :LORD"

    Please let me assure you that there is no logic in false religion or those who practice it. This comes from letting other people make up your mind for you and not reading the bible and learning the truth about God. Some times even a simple dictionary will suffice.

    anti - against

    Christ - Christ

    anti Christ - against Christ.

    Obama received a nobel peace prize, but he does support military action.

    Godly peace comes from laying down your life, not picking up guns.
