Antichrist in the churches. What Paul and John tell us in Bible.

Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...

For decades people in churches have speculated about, "Who is antichrist."

In the book, "War and Peace", Tolstoy reported that the Russian people thought Napoleon was the antichrist.  During the 1940's, some thought antichrist was Hitler.  In the 1960's some in USA speculated that the antichrist was John F. Kennedy.  In the 1970's, I heard my relatives say they thought antichrist was the Catholic Church.  In the late 1970's, at the church I attended, they spoke of antichrist being Henry Kissinger, the politician.

For the most part, churches have thought antichrist was one man.  And they thought he was a person in the governments of men.

In the Bible the apostle John explains that there were already "many" antichrists and they were in the churches of John's day.  (I Jn. 2:18-19)

The apostle Paul also identified these antichrist as being in the church and told how these men were just waiting for Paul to be gone from them when they would rise up in the church "speaking perverse things."  (Acts 20)

In the New Testament Bible, both apostles Paul and John, tell us there are "many" antichrist and they were in their church groups.

And Paul tells us before the return of Jesus it will get worse and worse in the churches and these churches will fall away from scripture, and this must happen in order for Jesus to return to for those who believe in HIM.
