The Antichrist has been identified using the clues given by the Apostle John the Revelator.
Spoiler alert: Just so you know, Donald Trump, Barack Obama, or Joe Biden are NOT the Antichrist.
The Antichrist is easily identified and located. “He” has been right in front of our eyes this whole time. The Apostle John pointed “him” out nearly 2000 years ago. How has this mysterious player in the Book of Revelation been able to hide in plain sight for so long? Could the answer be we didn’t recognize the obvious because we’ve all been hoodwinked? Let’s recall what the Apostle Paul told Timothy:
2 Timothy 4:3-4 “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.“
Read that passage closely. Paul is telling us in the last days “Christians” will refuse to hear the true doctrine. They will seek preachers who teach them doctrines that make them feel good about themselves (like prosperity doctrines). He calls these teachings fables.
Is what we’ve been taught about “The Antichrist” one of these fables?
Haven’t we been told these things about “The Antichrist”:
- Is Satan in human form, also known as “The Man of Sin and The Son of Perdition.”
- Appears sometime during Daniel’s 70th week. The last seven years before Jesus returns.
- It will rule as a good leader of a One World Government at first, then He turns bad.
- It creates a cashless monetary system.
- He’ll perform great signs, miracles and wonders.
- He will make a peace plan with the Jews and help them build the 3rd Temple and allow animal sacrifices again.
- Then He breaks the deal and destroys the Temple.
- He begins to persecute Christians and Jews.
- He makes everyone bear His 666 mark on their foreheads or right hand. Not allowing anyone to buy or sell without it.
- He sets up an image like statue and makes it talk.
We know so much about “The Antichrist.”
But, there’s a problem, A BIG PROBLEM.
When you take a closer look at “The Antichrist” you’ll discover something surprising. “The Antichrist” is never mentioned in the Book of Revelation. IN FACT there are NO SCRIPTURES anywhere in the Bible speaking about “The Antichrist” being a particular person coming on the scene in the Last days.
Ask yourself, “If the Antichrist is everything (and more), outlined above, how is this integral figure not mentioned even once by Jesus in his final report about the end of time, the Book of Revelation?”
Especially in this verse: Rev:20:10 “And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.” You’ll notice there’s NO MENTION of “The Antichrist” joining them. WHY?
Simply stated: There is no such person called “The Antichrist”.

The term “antichrist” only shows up four times in the Bible. All Four times written by the Apostle John. Considering John was the disciple Jesus chose to dictate the Book of Revelation to, it’s easy to assume John knows the most on the subject. But John never mentions “The End Times person called The Antichrist.” He paints a totally different picture. Let’s examine his writings.
FIRST TIME: 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.
We read in this verse that John believes he is living in the end times, and “antichrist” will not only soon come, but says THERE ARE MANY ANTICHRISTS already there. Whaaaaa? Here’s your first clue that “Antichrist” isn’t a person.
SECOND TIME: 1 John 2:22-23 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
Now John is telling us what Antichrist is, anyone who denies Jesus is the Son of God, or that God is the Father, is a liar and a what? An antichrist.
THIRD TIME: 1 John 4:3 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.
Now John tells of the spirits denying Jesus Christ was God in the flesh are the spirit of antichrist. Many are there then, and more to come.
FORTH TIME: 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.
Last point I want to make before I answer the question “Who is the Antichrist.” I want you to notice John never once capitalized the letter “A” in antichrist. This is a significant clue. Why? Because he’s not identifying it as a person.
It’s a thing.
The question should be:
What Is The Antichrist?
Now you’re wondering what “The Beast of Revelation” is right?
