The booklet opens by acknowledging the widespread confusion and speculation surrounding the term “Antichrist.” In popular culture and much of Christianity, the Antichrist is often imagined as a powerful political leader or a future individual who will deceive the world just before Christ returns. However, this booklet argues that the Bible provides clear, consistent evidence that the Antichrist is not a single person, but rather a religious system that has existed for centuries—opposing Christ by substituting human authority for divine truth.
The term Antichrist comes from the Greek anti (meaning “instead of” or “in opposition to”) and Christos (Christ). Thus, Antichrist means “in place of Christ” or “against Christ.”
The booklet emphasizes that:
The Antichrist is religious, not secular.
He deceives by impersonating Christ, not by openly defying Him.
He corrupts the truth under the guise of representing Christ.
It warns that false representations of Christ are far more dangerous than blatant opposition, as they mislead sincere believers.
The booklet draws from several key scriptures to develop a comprehensive picture of the Antichrist:
1 John 2:18, 22; 4:3; 2 John 7 – These passages show that many antichrists were already active in the early church.
The Antichrist denies the Father and the Son, and does not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh—not by denying His existence, but by misrepresenting His role and authority.
Paul describes the Antichrist as “the man of sin” and “the son of perdition.”
He exalts himself above all that is called God and sits in the temple of God, showing himself as God.
The Antichrist was already developing in Paul’s time, but would be revealed later, operating with signs, lying wonders, and deception.
A “little horn” rises among ten others, with eyes like a man and a mouth speaking great things.
It persecutes the saints, changes times and laws, and exalts itself.
This horn is a prophetic symbol of a corrupt religious power, not a secular government.
The beast from the sea has blasphemous names and receives worship and political power.
The woman (symbolizing a church) rides the beast and is described as Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots—a symbol of religious corruption.
She is drunken with the blood of saints, indicating persecution of true believers.
The booklet identifies the Antichrist not as a single person, but as a long-standing religious system that:
Claims to represent Christ, but teaches contrary to His Word.
Places human authority—through creeds, councils, or hierarchy—above the Scriptures.
Engages in persecution of dissenters and suppresses the free study of the Bible.
Blends church and state, seeking political power under religious guise.
It points to historical developments in the early church, especially after Constantine, where Christianity became institutionalized and merged with state power, ultimately leading to the rise of the Papacy and its influence over kings and nations.
The booklet emphasizes that this identification is not a personal attack on individual Catholics or clergy, but a critique of the system that developed contrary to the teachings of Christ and the apostles.
The Antichrist system is said to:
Substitute ritual for spiritual truth.
Teach eternal torment, prayers to saints, purgatory, and papal infallibility—doctrines that obscure the character of God.
Prevent the laity from reading and understanding the Bible by keeping it in Latin and discouraging personal study.
Demand loyalty to human authority, even when it contradicts Scripture.
This deception leads sincere people away from Christ, even while appearing to serve Him. It fulfills the warning of “having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof” (2 Timothy 3:5).
In contrast, the true followers of Christ are described as:
Led by the Holy Spirit, not religious tradition.
Guided by Scripture alone as their authority.
Focused on Christ as head of the Church, not any human leader.
Willing to suffer persecution for standing on truth.
These “saints” are those who have, through the centuries, resisted the Antichrist system, even at the cost of their lives.
The booklet refers to biblical prophecy that shows the Antichrist system will be judged and destroyed before the full establishment of Christ’s Kingdom:
In Revelation, the ten horns (representing secular powers) will turn against the harlot and burn her with fire.
This symbolizes a time when earthly governments will reject false religion, exposing it and removing its power.
Christ’s return will usher in an era of truth, righteousness, and universal blessing (Acts 3:20–21).
The booklet closes with a strong exhortation for believers to:
Study the Scriptures carefully and prayerfully.
Recognize and reject false systems that oppose Christ’s teachings.
Remain loyal to God’s truth, even when it conflicts with popular religious trends.
Look forward to the restoration of all things under Christ’s righteous rule.
It reminds readers that identifying the Antichrist is not about fear or condemnation—but about truth, clarity, and faithfulness to the Lord Jesus Christ.
