Meanwhile, political and military power shifts to a European confederacy led by the Antichrist. This strong man miraculously survives a head wound and gains unprecedented power. At a point of crisis, he orchestrates a seven-year peace treaty in the Middle East. However, the Antichrist, who bears Satan’s mark—666—then demonstrates his true nature.
