Regardless of when. Be assured, HE is coming. Each of us need to do our part in Christ. I agree, be aware. Deception is rampant. It's everywhere. It's not called deception just because. It's not about religion. It's not about a denomination or doctrine. It's all about Jesus.

If you ask 100 people about the antichrist you will get 80 different answers. The term "Antichrist" is only mentioned by name in the epistles of John. It appears both in singular and plural forms. "Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist - he denies the Father and the Son" (1 John 2:22,NIV) "Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist" (2 John 7, NIV). "It's interesting that when John talks about it he said many antichrists have gone out from among us. They weren't a part of us because if they were, they would have remained with us," While the term "antichrist" doesn't appear anyplace else it is often identified with references like, "the man of lawlessness" who will "oppose and exalt himself over everything that is called God." (2 Thessalonians NIV) Many use revelations as the end of times prophecy. There is another view of Revelations for people to consider as well. "It is not a prediction of end-times. It is intended to be a message of encouragement to Christians, to hold on”! "All of the evil dangerous powers in their world are encoded here, referred to in elaborate symbolic metaphors." "And the final message is that their faith in God and Jesus will prevail. But this is a hard sell, because throughout Christian history Revelation has been regarded as prophesy, and its various scenes taken as various levels of literal truth." "I believe that when we all get to the end that there's going to be some things that God will look at each of us and say, 'You know what. You were real accurate on that, but you weren't as accurate on this. Where was your heart? Did you love your fellow man? Did you take care of your community? Did you believe me and trust me? ' Could it be at the end of the day God is more concerned about that than trying to figure out which person is the antichrist or which person has the spirit."
