I have a question... why the fascination with looking for the anti-Christ? If you sent you path correctly, and follow Jesus, does it really matter who he is, or when he arrives?
That said, I am fearful of the end-times, and I do hope that I am not hear, when the time comes... I want to be safe in heaven, with the Lord.

IF YOU SET YOUR PATH CORRECTLY, I meant to say... thinking faster than I type. Sorry!

Everytime one of these threads pops up--I'm speaking in general, not about those to whom I've addressed this message--people seem to pour out of the woodwork to give Jesus's quote about no one knowing the day or the hour, as if that renders everyone with an interest in this to be off-base. What they fail to grasp is the fact that along with that quote, Jesus Himself admonished us to watch for the signs of the ends of the age.
Yes, accepting Jesus and having a personal relationship with Him is primary, but there are plenty of other aspects of the Bible that we are to study. Different people are fascinated with different aspects. There are LOTS of biblically ignorant saved people out there who might well wind up with a mark on their hand or forehead if not for those who take Jesus's instructions on this topic seriously.
