ANTI-CHRIST

ANTI-CHRIST
   is the word used by the author of the JOHANNINE EPISTLES for those who deny CHRIST (I John 2:18-22; II John 7). The NEW TESTAMENT implies that at the end of human HISTORY the anti-Christ will appear to wage war on the CHURCH. This BELIEF has fueled many MILLENARIAN MOVEMENTS.
