The Anti-Christ

For centuries (if not longer) the Anti-Christ has been talked about. We have been led to believe that the Anti-Christ was going to be a figure-head (person) and he would at one time or another in our future come. When he has arrived, it was supposed that it would not be a good thing for humanity, and some would say he would bring outright evil.

Now, talking with a friend, it had occurred that with the turning away from the Christian religion...I am not saying that everyone should convert to Christianity...but I am talking about the decline in people being part of the Christian religion. I think I heard one time, about 10 years ago, there has been a 40% decline in people proclaiming to be Catholic, compared to the 1950's.

With this decline, people, by default, are turning away from the Bible. The Bible is the teaching of Jesus Christ (Word of God). Does it not make sense, if you are turning away from the teaching of Jesus Christ, you are therefore an anti-Christ?

dunno

Just now you're getting it ....

All hail mankind bowing
It seems like it's near the end
There is more evil than gooduh oh
I disagree with you Cap, there is a lot more good....
you just hear about it less.

But goodness too destroys making even more sense why mankind is/could be the anti Christ.
I knows where hes buried
If you turn away from Christ, you are lost for eternity! Jesus said: I am the way, the truth, and the light, no one comes to the Father except thru me!

This is the true gospel!
Christ Himself said "He that is not with Me is against Me" Matt. 12:30. The word anti means against or opposed to, so in a sense you are correct.

However I believe Scripture is clear that the AntiChrist in prophecy is to be one individual with great power and influence.
Calm, I thought it was George W said that laugh
Hi Molly did he? Hmm me senses a M joke. :)
Hello Johnny, not necessarily true as far as the prophecy is concerned. It is explicitly defined that there is one person, not group of people or many people. That alone denotes the difference of what is prophezied against someone who doesn't follow the teachings of Christ. Even that doesn't make one an Anti Christ, just sinners who has the capability to turn around and change. After Jesus said to Thomas: A sinner must be forgiven about 7 times 77 times or something like that.

Anyways, that is my personal opinion. wave
Mr johhny_sparton if your looking for an anti Christ, Jorge Bergoglio (Pope Francis,the anti Pope) would be my choice. He exemplifies heresy, blasphemy and non conforming actions to the Catholic Church.i started a blog on the antipope and his capsizing of the Vatican, but I haven't completed it as of yet.

Ms calmseekheart, that's true the apostasy has created our own little anti Christ's, but like prophecy dictates the anti Christ will be someone with immense power and stature like the antipope.
That's Ms calmheartseeks
@johnjjim
If you know where he is buried,you had better get that Wooden Stake and Mallet ready!uh oh grin
Interesting Sea about your blog. Is it viewable online yet?
Ms calmheartseeks, it's only half complete. There is so much on the man that I have to comb through it to make t flow and understandable.
all god, all heaven, all hell

are in our interior. someone said this
Hello Itch,

Thank you for your input...much appreciated.

Hello Molly,

I cannot argue with your point, there is much validity to it.

However, some of the examples you have provided have to do with the people who claim to represent that religion...and not the actual religion itself.

Perhaps and hello Capri...

But what I think when I hear the end of the world, is it is inevitable. We all die...thus, we all have our worlds end.

Hello String,

Thank you for the video. I will try and check it out shortly. It seems like it would be very interesting to watch.

Hello JJ,

You should probably keep that a secret. laugh

Hello GJ,

Thank you for posting some supporting documentation.

Hello Calm,

Thank you too for supporting words.

With what you say about it being a single being, that could actually be. dunno Let's say that is the case, it would be much easier for him or her to fulfill their agenda with a larger non-religious society. I would think anyway.

wave
Molly...I remember G.W. saying that. doh ......wish there was a emoticon for being a dummy. laugh
Hello SR,

Please see my response to Calm if it were a single entity.


That is nice to see people able to seek redemption for their sins. Good info SR. Thank you.

I am not a believer...but respect people who do believe...to a point...just do not like people who push religion in my face...wine

I think most people are good...but some are evil...or misguided...Trump comes to mind...sigh
...or at minimum, around during then.
Oh Lou,
Just Love the Leader wink
Hello Duro...

I can see and understand where that makes complete sense. We all have our freewill...do we do good, do we do evil...all within our control.



wave
Hello L.L.,

I do agree, when somebody tries pushing something in my face as well...just don't set well with me too.

...funny about Trump. laugh


wave


But with all fairness, it has been said the same about G.W....being the Anti-Christ. But if the AC was around today, he/she would have many willing followers....I think.


wave
Johnny, my point was that it was a blind faith in the religion allowed these things to happen in the first place.

Any belief which does not encourage or even allow free thought has the potential to allow evil to happen.
Hello Non,

That is an interesting point.

However, I do still think religion...overall has served society well. Maybe too well. I don't think a population that is as large as it is today would exist if it were not for religion keeping the majority in line. Now with over population.....hmmm


wave
One could argue it also allowed good to happen Molly. grin
John

The pope today is a non conformist...good for him...and for many out there that were discriminated against...religion that is too controlling and punative serves no one...but itself...power is seductive...and evil...blues

After all men are fallible...laugh
Yes Johnny,
That makes sense thumbs up
I suppose objectivity is the key.
....correction L.L., I was getting off topic a bit. laugh
Thank you Non for opening up a new perspective in me..."mass."


It surely is something to consider when being objective.
John

My ten commandments...lol....
