Final Antichrist
The spirit of the antichrist is raising up deceivers in the church, but a final Antichrist will also appear at the end of the age . The Apostle John applies the term “ antichrist ” to false teachers who are disrupting his congregations, false brethren who deny that “ Jesus is the Christ ” and “ came in the flesh .” Such men are inspired and led by the “ spirit of the antichrist ” that is operating in the world.
