Some people read Galatians as an anti-Jewish letter, but the key to understanding Paul’s message is rooted in the Galatian context. Galatian gentile believers wanted to be circumcised to become Jews. They felt that would give them something that they otherwise did not have, but Paul tried to dissuade them.

The Jewish belief in one God is antichrist. So is the Muslim and the Pentecost Oneness belief…Scripture is very clear on the definition of antichrist.

Troy Day The Oneness doctrine vs. the antichrist. {KJV verses referenced.}
There are only four verses in the KJV which mention the word “antichrist” The word antichrist is misinterpreted as a singular man. An antichrist can be a single person whose doctrine of the Godhead is clearly defined by the following verses. However, there are many antichrist and there can be a spirit of antichrist present in our current “Christian” organizations. In the book of John it’s stated there are “even now” many antichrist. The popular teaching that “man of sin” or “ the son of perdition” is the antichrist..not so…They can be an antichrist, but they are not “the” antichrist.
Let’s look at 1 John 2:18 – Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. ….
1. This verse proves that antichrists were present at the time of John’s writings.
1 John 2:22 – Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
1. This verse proves that anyone that denies that Jesus is the Christ is a liar.
2. This verse proves that anyone denies the Father and the Son is antichrist… Notice “Father” is capitalized and “Son” is capitalized, two separate entities. Also notice the word “and” meaning more than one but different IE: bread and butter.
1 John 4: 2-3 – 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
1. Verse two proves for Jesus to “come” in the flesh, he must to have been somewhere else. Also Notice the word “God”, this shows a separate entity.
2. Verse three, the spirit of antichrist is a belief of more than one person. An origination, a group of people can have a spirit or a belief which controls them. If the group does not believe that Jesus “came” in the flesh, they are not of God…Again two separate capitalized words, two separate entities.
3. Verse three also states they are already in the world…
4. I believe these verses at that time of the writing are referring to the Jewish Religion, they only believe in one God and not Jesus…as do the modern oneness belief.
2 John 1:7 – For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
1. This verse also proves that Jesus to “come” in the flesh , you must be somewhere else before you can come to another place.
2. This verse calls them who do not believe Jesus is come in the flesh is a deceiver and an antichrist.
So, the scripture lays out very plainly that there are at least two in the God Head and those who do not believe the word of God which states God “and” Jesus in the above verses are antichrist. And if your origination which preaches the false doctrine of one in the Godhead they have the spirit of antichrist.
