No one will know for sure until he has been revealed to the world.
The Antichrist is the son of Satan. The Beast (or Antichrist) will probably be a Gentile political figure and . We say "probably Gentile" because of Revelation 13:1-10
1 And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea.
And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each
head a blasphemous name. 2 The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority. 3 One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was astonished and followed the beast. 4 Men worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, "Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?"
5 The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for forty-two months. 6 He opened his mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven. 7 He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. 8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world. 9 He who has an ear, let him hear. 10 If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go.
If anyone is to be killed with the sword,with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints.
He will call himself God,deceive mankind to bow down and worship him by taking his mark "666" in their palm or forehead.
The Beast is also referred to by many other names:
The Seed of Satan (Genesis 3:15)
The Little Horn (Daniel 7:8)
The King of Fierce Countenance (Daniel 8:23)
The Prince That Shall Come (Daniel 9:26)
The Desolator (Daniel 9:27)
The Willful King (Daniel 11:36)
The Man of Sin (2Thessalonians 2:3)
The Son of Perdition (2Thessalonians 2:3)
The Lawless One (2Thessalonians 2:8)
The Antichrist (1John 2:22)
The Beast (Revelation 11:7)
The Assyrian (Isaiah 14)
The First Horseman (Revelation 5)
The Wicked One (2Thessalonians 2:3-8)
The Idol Shepherd (Zechariah 11:17)
The Vile Person (Daniel 11)
The One Who Comes In His Own Name (John 5:43)
The Beast will only have a short time of of 42 months to decieve the world.
Revelation 12:10-12
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. 11They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much
as to shrink from death. 12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens
and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea,
because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury,
because he knows that his time is short."
In the end Satan, Antichrist and the False Prophet will thrown in the lake of fire, forever!!
Revelation 19:19-21
19 Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army. 20 But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. 21 The rest of them were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.
Revelation 20:1-3
1 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.
Revelation 20:7-10
7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. 9 They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Your question is good, but not clear. The "Anti-Christ" is a Devil possessed world dictator who will come to power for the last seven years of world history. (The "Beast" of Revelations 13) During the first three and a half years he will speak peace and look good to those who do not know who he really is.
Jesus talked about this period as the worst trouble that ever was or ever will be when his followers asked him what the signs would be of His coming and of the "end of the world" (Meaning this world sytem- not the planet) You can read about this in Matthew chapter 24.
Also the thirteenth chapter of Revelations gives you a good description of his economic system and how he will use it to try to control every man woman and child.
Jesus specifically tells of something that he (the AC) will place in the temple in Jerusalem (not yet rebuilt) which will start the last three and a half years and his reign of terror. That's why Jesus warns us. It's a horrible thing! "The abomination of desolation" and he tells us to understand what Daniel is talking about (Dan:9:27; Dan.11:31. ) Cause it's the same time--the same thing, but don't get mixed up, NOT Daniel of the Apocraphia, but Daniel of the Old Testament, the prophet Daniel.
On the other hand first John (I believe it is) says that "Even now there are many anti-christs" That was Roman times. Well there were tons of rotters and people who wanted to destroy Christians, even then, but they won't be ANYTHING, compared to this guy. He's gonna have a chip put in your right hand or your forehead- no chip- no buy- no sell!..(Hunger?) You asked! Good question. God protect you in this time! By the way, tons of churches say "Don't worry, Jesus is gonna take us out BEFORE that time!" Then why does Jesus Himself say "Immeadiately AFTER the tribulation of those days.." ( Matt."24:29-31) He would come back, and Daniel tells that "the people who do know their God will be strong and do exploits" They're gonna be here! They're not gonna be takin' it sittin' down. Why else should Jesus be tellin 'em to flee to the mountains, Why else should Revelations say that the "Woman" God's bride, the believing church, Flees to the wilderness where He has prepared her a place for a "time, times and half a time" (3 1/2 years!)
Heck, why should He even bother to warn them at all if they're gonna get whisked away? SPAM? I think not Look it up!

The antichrist does not set himself down on the throne of david in the temple placed at Jerusalem till 3 a million/2 years into the tribulation. there isn't something to assert he won't be a widespread guy in politics, or faith, or the different putting till then. so which you saying Obama can't be the Antichrist is merely as incorrect as people who say that he's. as far through fact the "catching up" of authentic believers is worried, there are various arguments approximately merely while that occurs. some say it occurs the 2nd the 7 3 hundred and sixty 5 days treaty is signed with Israel. Others say it won't ensue till the antichrist properly-knownshows himself 3 a million/2 years into the tribulation. So, as far through fact the disappearing of thousands and thousands of folk is worried, it incredibly is totally accessible that doesn't be going on yet...despite if Obama substitute into the Antichrist. yet for the reason which you be conscious of lots with regard to the Bible and authentic Christianity, you already knew all that.

Anti-christ is anything or anyone that teaches a life which is different from that taught by Jesus. Even the Bible could be the anti-christ since man has made an idol out of his own creation and called it the infallible word of God, when in fact Jesus is the only Word of God and is the Way Truth and Life.

In the End Times there will be a one world government with one world currency. A leader will rise up who is extremely charmiing, intelectual, wise, a problem solver to the masses, but most of all FULL OF DECEPTION. Much of the world will look to him or her (or possibly it...?) for answers among a complete worldwide time of despair. His (the anti-christ's) whole purpose and goal will be to lead people away from looking to God/Christ for their fulfillment during these times. The Bible says no one except the Father (God) will even be able to know when this time is, but there are things in Revelation that tell us what to look for in the coming of the End of Days.

The Bible says in 1 John 4:1-3 (KJV) that "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world."

He is a man who will arise as a peace maker however that will be short lived. He will bring swift destruction on Israel. It is thought that he is of jewish extraction and on reading Matthew Ch.24 It seems likely that he is in the world somewhere now only he has not yet risen to prominence as he will be at the peak of his power during the Tribulation.

Peace be with you,
Islam and Christianty both agree no one but GOD knows who it is but Jesus (peace be upon him) will one day return and defeat him. The Anti-Christ will claim to be our Prophet and is a sign of the end of days coming. It is a test of the faitful.
