Against Christ
The word is only found in the writings of John
1John2:18,22; 4:3.....2John 7
and may mean either an enemy of Christ or one who usurps Christ's name and rights, but the idea conveyed by the word appears throughout Scripture. The OT reveals the general Jewish belief that in the end time some hostile person or power would bring an attack against God's people, but it would be crushed by God or His Messiah

Anyone who does not possess the nature of Christ can be considered antichrist. The truth is, every human being in the flesh who does not do the will of God and instead does his own will goes against the nature of Christ, who took upon himself the sins of all.
An antichrist does not necessarily mean, that he or she needs to be a leader in a worldely sense. You and I are usually antichrist, unless we are living saintly lives already.

In Christian eschatology the Antichrist or Anti-christ (literally: anti, opposite; christ, messiah) has come to mean a person, image of a person, or other entity that is the embodiment of evil. The name Antichrist has come to represent the leader who, the Bible says, will rise to world dominance during the End Times just before the Second Coming

To explain who the Antichrist is would take a lot of time to write about. I suggest you go to: www.countdown.org there is a lot of information there and I think you will find it very informative.

Well, the term means " Against Salvation " so anyone that is attempting to disrupt you chances of salvation can be considered an Antichrist.

The anti-christ is the devil, or the devils assistant, who was the Closest of the 4 Archangels, named Lucifer and had fallen, with 1/3 of the Angels in Heaven, which are Demons. He is said to pretend to be God to try and trick people into following him, but that includes you helping him, if its accidental or perposeful it doesn't matter, then he will reach havoc around the World.

The anti-christ is lucifa (the devil). He was once an Angel, but sinned because of his desire to overthrow God, and as a result got thrown into the earth. The word "Anti" means - against, or opposite. Therefore the devil is 'anti' or opposite to Christ Jesus. It says in the Bible in Revelations that Jesus is coming back (second coming of Christ) and after the return of Jesus, the devil and his other fallen angels (demons) will come on the earth and torture those who were not Christians and who worked for the devil.. thats right, the devil is even going to torture his own followers. The devil is a liar who came into this world to decieve people and turn them away from Christ Jesus our redeemer.
But it also says in the Bible "that he that believes in him (Jesus) shall not perish (or go to hell) but shall have eternal life", so keep the faith. In order to go to Heaven, you must believe in Jesus and live for him - because he's worth it... he died for you on the cross of Nazareth.
Keep the peace men!
Live 4 Christ.

The dajaal. He is a one-eyed dude who will ride an enormous donkey around the world in a few days. When he comes, get down to your local mosque and convert to Islam without delay.

Some say it is Prophet muhammad, the founder of islam, since he opposed Christ and did not acknowledge that Christ is the Son of God.
Anti christ is anyone who denies this truth about Jesus.

The roman catholic popes. I say popes (in the plural) since there entire system contrabutes to being "anti-christ", and clearly throughout biblical symbolizm this can be seen.
