I have always been very open about the fact that I was a bullied truant, who received such poor grades in elementary school that I wasn’t even accepted into secondary education, meaning high school in Finland. After elementary school, I became ostracized from society, and the resulting shame and feeling of purposelessness that could have led me to prematurely end my own life. It is only by the grace of God that I am alive today. I received the worst possible grades from my elementary school teachers 20 years ago, but today I receive the best possible grades from a former university professor (at least when it comes to my eschatological writings).

Ramón Núñez is a former mathematics and physics professor living in Spain who understands much better than me complex topics such as quantum physics. He has also written an interesting book published last year titled Revelation The Second Coming Of The Messiah A Scientific Demonstration Based On Two Conjectures And Corroborated By Astronomical Events, which I cited a bit in my blog post published in March. Below, I include both Ramón’s five-star review of my book and my own review of Ramón’s book.

Note: To Whom The Majesty of Kingship Has Not Been Conferred – The Antichrist Revealed? is the English version I wrote in 2022 of the Finnish book Joka ei ollut saapa kuninkaan arvoa – Antikristus paljastettu? from 2019. The English book covers the same topics as my Finnish book, but I rewrote each chapter, resulting in 150,000 words and 424 pages, whereas the Finnish version only has 90,000 words and 354 pages. I might consider publishing a new edition in both English and Finnish at some point, as AI programs now assist in writing and translation work.

Samuel Tuominen has written a comprehensive book (420 pages) on the identity of the Antichrist. The book offers a wealth of information in various areas: from his personality to the history and prophecies that confirm his identity. The description of this end-times figure by those close to him, including his former wife, leaves no doubt that he meets many of the requirements that would allow a reasonable person to say that he is the Antichrist.

He fulfils nearly thirty prophecies. And he was even born in the same year as the foundation of Israel. So he is clearly a copycat of Christ, born six months after the establishment of the Hebrew state, just as Jesus was born six months after his cousin John. Writers like Newton or Luther talked about the fulfillment of Daniel’s prophecies until about the 1500s, but Samuel has “fulfilled” masterfully by revealing a great knowledge of historical facts, from the confirmation of Daniel’s prophecies to the present day. He shows great insight in explaining the apotheosis principle (multiple fulfillments of the same prophecy).

I really liked the numerical treatment of the prophecies, both the number of the beast and the correlation of the prophetic periods 1260, 1290 and 1335 “days” with historical facts (some of which are surprisingly accurate). The author is not only a person inspired by the Holy Spirit, but above all he has to be credited with being cautious and humble in his conclusions and acknowledging that he may be wrong.

When Samuel Tuominen wrote the book, Charles was a prince. But now he is king. And he suffers from a disease that is in many cases fatal. His kingdom and his family are in danger right now, having raised many doubts among his subjects. But he will surely recover from this ‘mortal wound’. The impression we have of him, who is not usually a very charismatic man, will change in an unexpected way.

Congratulations on all your hard work, Samuel. And much can be learned from the book by any open-minded and objective reader, believer or not.

My 5-star review of Ramon’s book, which I was supposed to send to Amazon, but it didn’t work because I hadn’t purchased enough items from Amazon in the last 12 months.

An extremely fascinating and engaging book written by a former professor of mathematics and physics, presenting a defense of the 6000-year history of the Bible. The author, while believing that the universe itself is likely billions of years old, argues for the literal 6000 years history depicted in the Bible Chronology. This position has been defended over the centuries by first-century Christians like Barnabas, second-century church father Irenaeus, the Jewish Talmud, Protestant reformers of the 16th century, and others.

Early Greek church fathers, such as Irenaeus, relied on the Greek translation of the Old Testament, the Septuagint, which contains inaccuracies in the lifespans of the early patriarchs. Consequently, they deduced that the creation of Adam occurred around 5500 BCE. However, most Bible translations published after the 11th century are based on the manuscripts of the Hebrew Masoretic tradition, which date the creation of Adam to around 4000 B.C.

The specific timing, however, has been hotly debated over the centuries, as the chronology in the Bible is not always clear. In his book, Ramón Núñez presents strong historical and scientific evidence for why the creation of (Adam) occurred in the year 3961 B.C., offering a different perspective than the more famous calculations of the 16th-century bishop Ussher, who even specified the exact month, day, and time of creation. According to Ramón’s calculations, Ussher’s computations were off by 43 years, and the 6000 years of biblical history would reach completion in the year 2040.

It is intriguing that Martin Luther also arrived at the exact same date in his 1541 chronology. According to Barnabas, Irenaeus, the Jewish Talmud, and the Protestant Reformators, the advent of the (second coming of the) Jewish Messiah and the commencement of a millennial reign of peace and prosperity on Earth would occur 6000 years after Adam’s creation. Will the “Lion of Judah” Jesus Christ return to Earth in 2040? This is a compelling theory, supported by credible evidence, although we cannot know the exact date or time of his coming, as Jesus taught in Matthew 24:36.

Or perhaps as Jesus taught in Matthew 24:22, the days have been shortened. In any case, all signs of our time point to his imminent return. Ramón’s book does not present sensational speculations, but rather grounds his arguments in strong scientifically verifiable data, including the latest astronomical information aligned with ancient sources, through which we can ascertain the precise timing of the birth of the father of the three monotheistic religions, Abraham, and thus the exact year of Adam’s creation. As an eschatological writer myself, I did not agree with all of Ramón’s views, but I still warmly recommend his book to all who are interested in Christian eschatology and are willing to explore the topic with an open mind and understanding of its rational basis. Ramón Núñez follows in the footsteps of Isaac Newton and other scientific giants who also delved into biblical eschatology with the same fervor as they studied the scientific mysteries of our natural universe.

P.S. It was an honor to receive a five-star book review from the author for my own eschatological book, which addresses my theory on the possible and likely identity of the Antichrist in the Bible. Predicting the future is always a high-risk endeavor, and the Bible teaches us that “we know in part and prophesy in part; but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away with.” (1 Corinthians 13:9). And, “For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to rein in the whole body as well.” (James 3:2). A biblically humble student of prophecy does not claim to know everything and be infallible in his studies. However, the Scriptures also teach that in the last days “knowledge will increase” (Daniel 12:4). It is thus better to speak and be wrong than to stay silent and be right. The prophecies are given to warn us, to warn the sleeping world that the prince of this world will deceive and fight against the Savior of humanity and lead his followers to eternal damnation.
