Tony Blair........what's his game!!!!!

The reason I do not see the anti christ in anyone is that if you look at the order of things in the prophetic bools certainn events occur ,chtonologically there is a step by step programme ,and the time of the anti christ follows this programme which is clear in the writings on the 70th week of Daniel

[bikelite]

The ten horns or Kings are not yet could happen in 6 months, the way the world is going , but gods plan and he will be small and come up and up root three. We need to watch for the 10 kings , forget everything else the bible says the ten kings must come first. Watch for the making of the ten.

[Pariah]

Anti-christ means "instead of christ" so if anyone is pointing to them what they should be going to Jesus Christ for, then it is an anti-christ as there will be many.

1 John 2: 18Little 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. 19They 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.

As for the major one that will be revealed when he shows himself in the Holy of Holies, the world will have to watch and wait to see: course, personally, God be willing, I hope to be outta here before that happens. Yep.

I like this today , the spirit of the anti is at work in the world and in this forum , we must be doing something to has Lucifer looking at this forum.

No. What you had shared was the definition for "anti".

You have to take the whole term to define the meaning of anti-christ from its use in the Bible.

The Literal Meaning of "Antichrist"

Another case of Protestants inventing their own meaning for English words.

So anti-Semitism means instead of Jews does it rather than against Jews?

Anti-social means instead of society does it rather than against society?

Anti-american means instead of America rather than against America ?

Etc.

Well, I just read that link very carefully and this quote,,,

"Antichrist", therefore means, literally, "someone who stands instead of, or in place of, the real Jesus Christ".

in line with,,,

It could be someone who falsely claims to be Christ.

It could be a false Christ, promoted by others, in place of the real one.

It could be someone who falsely claims authority to speak for and exercise the authority of the real Christ.

makes absolute perfect sense to me.
This term "instead of " fits in with so many false prophets we see on the television.

Of course it gives that definition on that site. It's a Protestant site redefining words for their own purposes.

Have a look at what all the dictionaries I found define it as.

Lily,

Can't you see where this going once you accept this false definition?

The Pope is the vicar of Christ

Vicar = representative of or deputy = instead of

Therefore a title of the Pope is by definition anti-Christ.

Steve, I didn't say I accepted it. I accept nothing from anyone until I have checked myself.
I said that the definiton,

"Antichrist", therefore means, literally, "someone who stands instead of, or in place of, the real Jesus Christ".

in line with,,,

It could be someone who falsely claims to be Christ.

It could be a false Christ, promoted by others, in place of the real one.

It could be someone who falsely claims authority to speak for and exercise the authority of the real Christ.

makes sense because it does. The two definitons fit.

The pope never entered my head until you mentioned him.
