Nothing has created more of a stir of discussion in recent times than the discussion of the future events, and in particular, the Antichrist. It was my good fortune to practically be raised in the church. Both my grandfather and father were ministers. When I was seven, I first heard the term Antichrist. Then I began to hear more and more things said about him. I later was to learn that much of what was said was not always Biblically sound. But it was the opinion and the ideas of theologians of their time; and the generation before them. From a very, careful study of the Word of God, we can learn the absolute truth about the Antichrist; and never again be caught up in speculation or in fear.

With the help and authority of the scriptures, not someone's theology or the speculation of so-called experts, we want to discover the exact Biblical identity and characteristics of the Antichrist. Therefore, we must avoid individual doctrines, individual views or individual revelations from God. We must depend upon exactly what the Word of God says about this important subject matter.

The subject of this book is the Antichrist. There is much information concerning the one who becomes the Antichrist. We will focus on him directly from the scripture.
This has been a major subject within the church for many years and, quite often, misunderstood.

Drawing information only from God's Word, one has an accurate picture of the Antichrist. Understanding his satanic assignment and the time allotted to him becomes clear. One learns he utterly fails to carry out his evil assignment. Please read every word very carefully and then go back through this book again and again until this material becomes yours. Your friends and family will be amazed at your knowledge when you share these truths.

Reading carefully, you will discover many of your questions about the Antichrist are going to be answered. Also, some things you may have been taught by well-meaning people were not Biblically correct. You will discover how to correct them by the we of God's Word, the Bible.

Let's begin with a statement of our Lord Jesus in Matthew 24:4, "...Take heed that no one deceives you." The Apostle Paul also addresses deception in II Thessalonians 2:3 NKJ where he writes, "Let no one deceive you by any means..." This is a more detailed statement than the one made by Jesus in Matthew 24. Take a close look at Paul's statement because he is dealing with the revealing of the Antichrist. His statement is in perfect harmony with that of Jesus; guarding oneself against being deceived. The Holy Scriptures, if studied and accepted, serve to inoculate one against deception.

" Let no one deceive you by any means" - not by their personality, their oratorical ability, their use of scripture taken out of context, or their ability to perform what appears to be signs and wonders. Paul points out that the works of the Antichrist and the False Prophet are lying miracles, lying wonders; therefore, they are designed to be extremely deceptive.

"The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,"
II Thessalonians 2:9 NKJ
