  • The Bible also teaches that there is a general spirit of antichrist in the world which opposes Jesus' work.
  • The New Testament book of Revelation explains that there will be a man called "the antichrist" who will be revealed in the end times. This man will attempt to destroy God's people, but he will be defeated by Jesus.
