It’s going to be a moslem.

The book of Daniel makes it clear that the Antichrist is a person.

In a sane world, THIS is the kind of wise, deep-thinking, sincere, genuine and servants-hearted man who should be living at the Vatican.

Though I am not a Catholic, there is not a posting from Msgr. Pope that doesn't lend itself to a bit more enlightenment as a Christian.

The author of the article is a type of antichrist, substituting his word for God’s Word.

Do not Roman Catholics deny the sufficiency of Christ when they say we can only come to Christ through Mary? Or that no one can enter Heaven but through her means?

Or that no man is delivered or preserved from the world-wide snares of Satan except through Mary; and God grants His graces to no one except through her alone?

http://www.catholictradition.org/Mary/mary18a.htm

Perhaps the biggest lie of Roman Catholicism is the blending of the necessity of Mary with Jesus. In fact, much of Rome's teaching on Mary contradicts the New Testament.

Scripture teaches that it is only through Christ that we gain Heaven. There is no mention of having to go through Mary for anything.

6Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. John 14:6 NASB

Christianity and Roman Catholicism....there is a difference.

Then are all non-Catholics who interpret Scripture in their own ways also antichrists?

There are many AntiChrists, not ‘the’.

MSM are AntiChrists.
Democrats are AntiChrist.
Islamics are AntiChrists.

Book of Revelation is but one AntiChrist interpretation.

An AntiChrist hates liberty & responsibility.

Islam. Would not be surprised if the antichrist with a capital “A” comes as the leader of the Islamic world.

Walid Shoebat’s “God’s War on Terror” spells it all out.

The term anti Christ never appears in the book of Revelation. I don’t know why so many just assume anti Christ and the beast of revelation are the same thing. I think the author is on the right track however he seems to be making the same assumption.

Or maybe it’s just Islamism and not an individual.

Christianity believes in the Jesus taught in the Bible, a Jesus who came into the world through Mary. Have one and you necessarily have the other.

It's unclear to me what sort of Jesus you believe in, however. Probably a discarnate, Docetic Jesus who never truly came in the flesh, hmm?

The passage in Daniel you're thinking of referred to Antiochus Epiphanes, who might qualify as a type of Antichrist but isn't the guy you're thinking of.

The original type of both Christ and Antichrist/beast was King Solomon, oddly enough.

Nope. I believe in Jesus in the Scriptures. What Rome believes of Mary is not found in the Scriptures. That is the error of Rome.

It was Mad Moe. The war between Islam and everything else is obvious.

If there is an “anti-Christ” person today, I nominate the follower (or all of them).

1 George Soros
2. Nancy Pelosi
3. Chuck Schumer
4. Little Kim Un Chee
5. Premier Xi of Red China
6. Putin
7. Ayatollah Khemanei
8. The head of ISIS, Baghdadti
9. Hillary Clinton
10. MY MAIN MAN - OBAMA

The collective personification of EVIL in today’s world.

You are seriously mistaken. This is NOT the teaching of Roman Catholics.
