[Telepathic Intruder]

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."

Someone of flesh and blood is easy to point your finger at. The true enemy is not so easy to kill. He is a spirit of lies and deceptions that makes wrong seem like right.

[AmericanMermaid]

The Beast is a person, specifically a man. He has a personality, i.e. he has no use for women, but the spirit of antichrist is indeed a spirit which has been here since the birth of the Church, the Bride of Christ, and it has grown even more intense. The Bible speaks of them separately, but the Beast is indeed one man, the Satanic counterfeit of God the Son, as the False Prophet is the Satanic counterfeit of God the Holy Spirit.
