One must keep the thought that this "anti-christ" person will come one the scene at a time when there is a real need for peace. People will be desire peace and the person who can deliver will be held in very high regard. A thought has always been how this person will be able to work with the Jews. He will abolish the sacrifice, but he will also have been recognized by those very same Jews as a world leader that had been helpful in the Mid-East peace process.
The main thing about all the looking for this anti-christ--if you keep your eye on the real thing, meaning Jesus, then when the fake comes along, you will recognize him immediately.
I agree....I think we will know him for what he is....I have a feeling the one who lives in us will give us a soft whisper in our hearts to discern the truth...
I pray we are not blinded by petty problems to see it if it happens in our time...
God Bless
