    1 John 2:18,22
    [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.
    [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 John 4:3
    [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.

    2 John 1:7
    [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.

    The phrase “anti-Christ,” was not in any original manuscript. Anti or false Messiah was the rendering

    I wrote this on another post, but it is appropriate here as well. Many are fooled right now. And have been since the time of John. John talked about antichrist during his time. Antichrist not THE Antichrist has been around. We are deceived today. Most of these End Times Teachers are wolfs in sheep’s clothing. Just look at this group. Most people think they know the truth, but only quote what they heard from some kind of Bible teacher. How many do their own research and trust the Holy Spirit? It is obvious, that some of as or all of us have not figured it out. And you think Antichrist did not create this situation?

    ing Bible Prophecy

    USING CHRIST’S “REAL” NAME
    IS THE ONLY WAY
    THAT WILL FULFILL
    THE WORDS
    OF THE PROPHET JOEL

    Joel 2:32: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of YAH shall be delivered….

    Act 2:(16,17,21) but this is that which hath been spoken by the prophet Joel;
    …. in the last days, saith THE ALMIGHTY that whosoever shall call on the name of the YAH shall be saved.

    Romans 10:13 for, Whosoever shall call upon the name YAH shall be saved.

    Acts 4:10,12: be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Yahshua Hamashia of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom YAH raised from the dead….And in none other is there salvation: for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we must be saved.

    All the above scriptures will be
    fulfilled – only in the name of Yahshua

    THE JEWISH MESSIAH
    RETURN TO HIS TRUE NAME
    Who is antichrist
    Each who use pagan name God’s Son and abuse Him

      I have read and heard so much about the Anti Christ such that Christ seems be in the background and not lthe FOCAL POINT…
      People even in the secular world are so fascinated and seems mermesrised by the theories and speculations and conjectures and old women tales about THE ANTI CHRIST…..WHY?
      He has taken such preeminence in the Body of Christ, preeminence due to CHRIST.. preeminence due to the GOSPEL preeminence due to the BELIEVERS AUTHORITY..
      The verses on the Anti Christ are skimy to say the least and doesn’t even seem to give such a deep apolocalyptic picture of this PERSON as is always portrayed by some Christian end times pundits ….
      The antichrist end has been declared from the beginning is he worthy of ALL the attention he is given?.
      Scriptures that mention anti christ, anti Christ’s and the spirit of anti christ are barely 3 or 4….
      Scriptural coordinators or rather scriptural speculators try to build a “sound doctrine* on Anti Christ from the epistles of John and the 13 chapter of the Book of Revelation
      In the epistles of John the Anti Christ or anti Christ’s are mentioned as MEN…
      Not only as MEN but men who at a certain time knew the TRUTH then departed and followed their ways…. as this scripture testifies//
      //They WENT OUT from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
      1 John 2:19 KJV
      //
      Chpt 13 of the book of Revelation talks of 2 BEASTS…one of whom comes from the sea and is given great power seat and authority by Satan and a second one which comes from earth whose mission is to wage war against the righteous and conquer them.
      This is also the one that marks men with the 666 mark which is called MARK OF THE BEAST…
      In my naivety I really just can’t understand how Bible scholars conclude that this is the antichrist… because the antichrist in the epistle of John was a human being.. while the one(s) in the 13 Chpt of Rev are called BEEASTS..
      Or do they draw their conclusions from this verse?
      //Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of A MAN and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.(666)
      Revelation 13:18 KJV
      //
      The number of a MAN…
      The mark of the beast?

      ALL arguments aside I have ample testimony that there is a spirit which marks men with the 666 mark..
      In the course of three or four deliverance I encountered people who had been marked with the 666 unawares and the cases came ftom 2 major religious sources and one from a well known secret society source..
      But looking at the Anti christ and antichrist and the spirit of anticbrist I can conclusively say they won’t operate from a political office but in the confines of religion and secret socities..
      Preachers don’t want to do deliverance but they enjoy discussing the antichrist.. Mhh
      Let them get the facts from the field…

      Isara Mo you are getting into some interesting stuff WHAT ABOUT Bush, Obama and Trump being called with that mark – are demons marking political persons OR just believers?

      Conjectural BUT as persons they might be carrying the mark knowingly or unknowingly.
      Knowingly in the sense that anyone with a cultic or secret society initiation or background is likely to bear the mark….but being the ANTI CHRIST…?
      No.
      The antichrist doesn’t bow down to politicians but politicians bow down to the antichrist..
      Most stories about these political leaders are personal speculations..

    1 John 4 1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

    what does this mean ? Isara Mo RichardAnna Boyce

      RichardAnna Boyce

      1 John 4:1 Satan has many spirits who serve him here, as is shown by the fact that many false prophets have gone out into the world.

      In vv 1-2 John seems to be trading on the fairly fluid meaning of the term spirit. The word itself can refer to a human spirit, to supernatural spirits like demons, or to an attitude or disposition. John is not trying to be specific; he is warning against every malevolent spirit of Satan, every human spirit who becomes his agent, as well as every manifestation of “the spirit of error” (cf. v 6) that characterizes satanic doctrine.

      False prophets are to be tested “by their fruits” (cf. Matt 7:16-20). Contrary to popular interpretation, this does not mean that they were to be tested by their works. On the contrary, as 12:33-37 proves, their fruits are their words! They look like sheep when in reality they are “ravenous wolves” (7:15). Their behavior does not set them apart from the sheep, but their message does!
