NASB | 1 John 2:18 ¶ Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 2:18 ¶ Children, it is the last hour [the end of this age]; and just as you heard that the antichrist is coming [the one who will oppose Christ and attempt to replace Him], even now many antichrists (false teachers) have appeared, which confirms our belief that it is the last hour. |
Bible Question:
Which books of the Bible specifically mention "antichrist"? Does one have to believe in a literal person appearing at the near end of time as the antichrist in order to be considered a Christian? |
Bible Answer: Hi again wps! Yes, there will be a literal person. The "spirit" of antichrist is also very evident in the world. I am interested in your definition of a "Christian." What we believe about antichrist does not determine our standing before God; what we believe about His Son, Jesus does. See also: 1 John 2:22; 4:3; 1 John 1:7 mommapbs |
