Who is the Antichrist and why should we care about him? There are plenty of people in this world who would like to know — and that makes it a good idea to find out. If you're serious about wanting to learn more about the Antichrist, then read on! The term "antichrist" has been around for quite some time, even before Christianity began. The word appears in the Bible in its original Greek form, christos antichristos, which is translated as "the anointed one against Christ". The actual person for whom this name was originally used is unknown today but according to references found within other ancient texts he was regarded as a false messiah or false prophet. The belief that there would be a final antichrist has been taught for centuries. The first mentions of this appear in the New Testament, specifically in 1 John 2:18 and 2 John 1:7. Christ himself spoke of the coming of an "antichrist" during his time on Earth, as well. Many books have been written, especially throughout the past few centuries, about the Antichrist's supposed return to Earth. Many people believe that once he returns that he will lead mankind into a time of great tribulation before defeating Christ and claiming his throne. Eventually, mankind will be forced to choose between him and God for their ultimate leader, which will effectively end with Satan winning souls to his side. In more recent times, interest in the Antichrist has grown every year. In fact, a recent study conducted by The Barna Group showed that nearly one in five adult Americans believe that the person of the Antichrist is alive today, and one in three adult Americans believe that his arrival is imminent. While there are several different descriptions of how he will look, what he will do and when he will appear it also appears that many people have a very good idea who the Antichrist will actually be . So who is going to play this role? It isn't very hard to guess once you know what to look for. Just look at the world around us. Who are the most powerful people in the world? Who are people asking to be their leaders? What are they asking these leaders to do for them? The answers to these questions might just point you in the right direction. The Bible teaches us that the Antichrist will take control of a United States of Europe, control all commerce routes, and will take his seat in a rebuilt Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. He will then declare himself not only as God but as God's son. He will work to unite all religions into one unified belief system, demanding that everyone worship him as their one true god. He is going to be a man of great power and control, and he will do this through signs and wonders. The Bible tells us that the Antichrist is going to be a man of great charisma. Millions of people will follow him because they believe in his philosophies. He is going to appear as a peacemaker, someone who will "make the world a better place". And while some conservative Christian literature describes him as evil incarnate, many more modern interpretations describe him as charismatic, likeable and even like Jesus Christ himself — albeit with an agenda entirely different from that of Christ. I'm not trying to suggest that you look for an actual person when considering your answers to these questions. cfa1e77820
