But to premillennial dispensationalists, would-be imperialists get a pass. They&#8217;re obviously not &quot;peacemakers,&quot; so there&#8217;s no need to worry that they might be the Antichrist. This is another example of how the PMD view that the Antichrist will be a wolf in sheep&#8217;s clothing leads them to be suspicious of all sheep while being complacent about wolves. They&#8217;re not fearfully vigilant against the rise of the next Napoleon or the next Caesar or the next Pharaoh &#8212; they&#8217;re keeping watch against the rise of the next John Lennon.
