AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 John 1:7 ¶ For many deceivers [heretics, posing as Christians] have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge and confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh (bodily form). This [person, the kind who does this] is the deceiver and the antichrist [that is, the antagonist of Christ]. |
Subject: Does Islam fit here? |
Bible Note: mommapbs By definition Islam is 'an' antichrist. However I don't believe it has yet achieved the status of 'the' antichrist and I doubt it will by itself. However I do see it being embraced by the wrong factions and I can see if once combined with them it could easily become force by which the antichrist rules. I still think there will be a single man identified as the antichrist. |
