Hi Frankly Frank. The Antichrist is Satan. But first we need to read some passages from the Bible to understand. God tells us in 2 Corinthians 11:13-15:
"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works."
God is speaking about these false apostles who will look to the world like a True Believer or an Apostle of Christ (verse 13) As Satan is transformed into an angel of light. These are the many false Apostles today who want to destroy the true church of believers. God confirms who the Antichrist is in 1 John 4:3:
"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."
Many people try to predict who the Antichrist will be. But God tells us in the Bible the Antichrist was present when the Bible was being written.

The dictator in Iran would like to be the antichrist. He is sufficiently infused with his own sense of religious infallibility to be a perfect tool of evil. He probably fantasizes of killing millions of Christians, Jews, Hindus and any other non-believers that he can get his hands (or nukes) on. Then he could go after the Sunnis (or Shiites whatever he isn't) and still feel like he was doing God's work. He would have to be Satan's number one pick in this year's evil draft.
Given that the Yankees just signed Clemens, who knows, maybe it is George Steinbrenner after all.

Hello, Frankly...: The Bible says He has been with us all along, yet he himself must come. Confusing? Yes, a little.
Until you realize that Satan was a liar and murderer from the beginning, so he has been influencing people all along.
But II Thessalonians 2:3, 4 says: "Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God."
This does not apply to Bill Gates, Hillary, etc. But someone actually claiming to be God. The Reformers, like Luther applied those texts to the Papacy, but if you read the first verses, (2:9) "[Even Antichrist], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders..." There is no one that meets this description, but this Antichrist will claim to be God and work miracles.
Note this point in Revelation 12:12: "Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."
This will be Satan himself, glowing, radiating, deceiving the very elect. Yes, Antichrist has been with us throughout history, but Satan must come and deceive the inhabitants of the earth, and this will not be a chrismatic human, but a supernatural being claiming to be God.
There is a Bible code that tells us who antichrist is, identifies the Messiah, and the timing of the great controversy between good and evil. If you read the Bible from cover to cover, there is the only one part that tells you that you can not understand it until the end of the days. That is because there is a hidden "key" to unlock the code. We are at that point in history that God can reveal its special message to you. you can read it free at the link below.
The information there will answer your questions. Blessings and AGAPE love, One-Way

The anti-christ is a little man with sunglasses who like to make movies, but never releases any. Does the DMZ ring a bell?
I don't believe in the anti-christ, I am not Christian... but if you know who I am talking about you will agree, he is the most funny monkey in the history of the world, lol.

It is satan the ole 666er himself. It is he who they are talking about when they say that the ole abomination that causes desolation will be standing where he ought not (jerusalem temple) exalting himself over everything claiming to to be God / Jesus. So he is a supernatural being . And he does not come up through the ranks of politics. He just comes in and takes over.

I don't usually speculate, but I believe that when the great Antichrist comes to power, he will be a leader of the United Nations or an organization like it.

None of the above. He will be in politics, he will come out of the EU and he will have all the answers of peace to end the wars between the nations. Even the Jews and Muslims will get along........for a few years and then..........well, I won't go into the doom and gloom.

Well, if it ain't Hillary shes doing a good job of impersonation.
But, really the anti-christ is yet to come and I doubt that we will know him/her before something bad happens.

Frankly Frank. I hate to tell you this, but the Antichrist is that guy you're always praising here on Yahoo! Answers. Yes, it's George W. Bush.
Take a second look at the Revelation of St. John. The Antichrist will pretend to be a Christian. And will deceive many before his true identity is revealed. Does this sound like Hillary Clinton or Bill Gates to you? Name a world leader who wears Christianity like a cheap suit, then starts multiple wars killing thousands of innocent men, women, and children. And you'll find your Antichrist.
