The Spirit of the Anti-Christ

The anti-Christ is much more than a person some are waiting for, it is a world spirit that inspires empires and has been around for 2000 years.  I'm concerned that Christians are bowing to the spirit of the Anti-Christ while waiting for an individual to show up.  Studies on 1 John 2, 1 John 4, 2 Thes 2, Daniel 7, Daniel 11, and Revelation 13.  The great apostasy was the rise of atheism in the heart of Christendom -- the falling away already happened.  Every aspect of the Anti-Christ can be found in today's world empire of atheism.  Consider "666" as representing corporate man in defiance of God.
