    Will there still be the man of Sin to come, or has he already appeared?
    has antichrist come and gone?
    was ALL the biblical prophecies about him already fulfilled or not?

    Has Israel signed a 7 year peace treaty yet; the world come under 1 ruler yet; the mark of the beast become a problem yet; the rapture occurred yet?

    If not, then the AC has not come yet; perhaps next year.

    AntiChrist is that which opposes Christ. This has and will continue to occur until the blessed hope of Christ's victorious return.

    Anti-Christ in one that claims to be Christ and is against the true Christ. There will also be a beast that has greater power than the anti-christ.

    Anti-Christ

    1 John 2: 20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.[Some manuscripts and you know all things] 21 I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth. 22 Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son. 23 No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

    24 As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is what he promised us—eternal life.

    Try again.

    I believe "The Confession" says it is "the Pope of Rome".

    I'm sure Icon can provide chapter and verse for us.

    Know that there is a 'spirit" of antichrist in the World, was just asking if you see a personal one also to come, or has he already came?

    Lucifer, Satan, the great dragon has never ruled as the ruler of Israel, and never has he ruled all the earth as the beast. Which John tells us in revelation will happen, ther will be an evil trinity, satan, teh beast and the false prophet (anti-christ) who will rule during the tribulation and that hasn't happened.

    ------------------------------------------------------
    The Israel of God is the body of believers; the rapture, as presented in many circles, is mythical, and is really the actual 2nd advent of Jesus the Christ.

    The forming anti-christ is the World Council of Churches and culminating in the Pope of Rome. If you are looking at world domination, examine the Church of Rome in every country and its dominant power over the people. The World Council of Churches is heading in this direction with its watering down of theology and the gospel and its constant blending with the Church of Rome. This was the common thinking of the last 200 years, with some variables along the way.

    Cheers,

    Jim

    I believe that many antichrists (lower case "a") have already come, and I believe that the Antichrist (upper case "A") will arrive on the scene during the Tribulation.

    "The REAL antichrist?" As opposed to the fake antichrist, or what?

    Well Jim, with all due respect for your opinion, IMHO, the only way that all you state can be the fulfillment of prophesies is to say that what God has stated via John is not what He meant; do you really want to go down this path???

    The term "AntiChrist" is only found in the epistles of John with full explanation of who a AntiChrist is. Notice that the same John who wrote Revelation never mentions the term once!

    AntiChrist is anyone who denies Christ came in the flesh, etc.

    It's only through modern folklore (IE Hal Lindsey), that the Church somehow believes there will be some AntiChrist coming in the future, without ANY biblical basis!

    By the way guys, if I ever sound divisive, please don't think that, I am new to this forum and speak bluntly, I don't want anyone to get angry, but rather that we all be built up!

    Other than John in revelation speaking of the satanic trinity, satan, the beast and the false prophet (anti-christ) or a false messiah if you will.

    Revelation 20: 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

    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.

    Revelation 13: 1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

    2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

    3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

    4And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

    Satan (the dragon) the leader of the evil trinity.

    This beast which will rule most of the world has yet to come. He will rule 10 countries, but will have satan as his guide. The second part of the evil trinity.

    Revelation 13: 11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

    12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

    13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

    14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

    15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

    The final member of the evil trinity the beast with the two horns coming out of the earth (Israel), the leader of Israel as the false messiah (anti-christ), who will decive the nations into worshipping the beast out of the sea (nations).

    This has yet to be fulfilled. John spoke very plainly that the would come and rule the earth.

    The final portion of Revelation 13: 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

    17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

    18 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.

    Has yet to be fulfilled for the number of the beast or the number of man has not been forced upon all the citzens of the earth. We have no mark in our forehead or our right hand today. Technology is here for it but it has yet to be implimented.

    What do all of those quote have to do with AntiChrist? We need to be extremelly careful in defining the book of Revelation.
