14  And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

This False Prophet will have the power to work miracles in the sight of the Beast Antichrist. He will be able to perform miracles on the temple mount. The image of the Beast will be set up in the holy place of the temple. There was a foreshadow of this when a statue of Zeus was set up in the “Holy Place” Under Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 168 BC, which is also one of the reasons why I say the world may believe the Beast is Zeus.

In ancient days, Zeus was worshipped as the God of Gods and the savior God. These are names of blasphemy because they are reserved for YHWH. Zeus, is just a counterfeit of YHWH. Zeus was the national god of the Greeks. When Paul healed a cripple, the Greeks of the city said the gods had come down to them in the form of men. Then they called Barnabas Jupiter (Zeus in Greek), because he seemed to be the one in charge (Acts 14:12). With this past history in mind it would not take much deception for the polytheistic and pantheistic pagan world to believe that the Beast (Zeus) is the God above all that is called God. 

Jesus in His Olivet discourse warns the Jews to flee to the hills when the desecration spoken about by Daniel the prophet stands in the holy place (where it ought not). Only Jesus is worthy to stand in the holy place of the temple. This blasphemy will bring the wrath of God on those on the earth, instead of the thousand years of peace that will be promised by the Beast and his False Prophet. Hitler had plans that included a thousand year reign by the Aryans. His attempt to unite Europe by using war and by using Jews as scapegoats was a foreshadow of the coming Antichrist government and its deception.
