There is the spirit of Antichrist and the man Antichrist. What is in work today is the spirit of Antichrist not the man Antichrist.
Who is the Antichrist? Antichrist means an antagonist or opponent of Jesus Christ. A person or power opposing, against or in place of Jesus Christ.
The man Antichrist will rise in the 7 year tribulation period and his reign will be 7 years or 1 week as seen in Daniel 70 weeks.
Now, we have the spirit of Antichrist in the world.
The spirit of Antichrist
The spirit of Antichrist is that spirit which is against anything Godly. It is opposing Jesus Christ and working to totally wipe out Christianity and Jesus Christ from earth’s surface. This spirit is against the Jews, Israel.
1 John 4:3: And every spirit that confesses 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.
The spirit of the Antichrist perverts, twists or adds to the essential building blocks of Christianity.
Characteristics of spirit of Antichrist
Spirit of Antichrist adds, denies, perverts or twists that;
- Jesus is God.
- Jesus is Christ
- Jesus was a man when He was on earth (He had flesh)
- Jesus rose from the dead physically
- Salvation is only by grace through faith
- The gospel is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ
Satan is the main Antichrist with his primary target to destroy Jesus Christ and Christianity. Any person who perverts, twists or adds to any of the above maintained building blocks is an Antichrist.
Satan is against the Jews and working to wipe them out from earth, so the Antichrist and the spirit of Antichrist. Any person working, with total enemity, to wipe out the Jews (Israel) has the spirit of Antichrist.
Men like Adolf Hitler, Antiochus Epiphanes etc were all powered and controlled by the spirit of Antichrist.
Any person today against Jesus Christ, the word of God and anything Godly is under the spirit of Antichrist.
God bless.
