The Christian Bible describes the Antichrist as a messianic figure of sorts but one that is hellbent on power and dominations. The Antichrist will appear in the ancient city of Jerusalem where he will attempt to take up his seat of power atop the holy Temple Mount. According to some doomsday preachers, the church has been preparing for his arrival since the dawn of time.
Others have claimed the Antichrist will appear as a “charismatic world leader” who will fool people into worshipping him.
These claims are backed by passages in the New Testament, which speak of one or many deceivers who reject Jesus Christ as the son of God.
A passage in 1 John 2:18 warns: “Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.”
Another passage, in 2 John 7, reads: “I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.”
And 1 John 4 also states: ” This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God.
“This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.”
Now, according to the Christian conspiracy blog, Bible prophecy – Signposts of the Times, the time of the Antichrist’s arrival is approaching.
The blog’s authors, Duane and Shelley Muir of Williams Lake, Canada, bizarrely claimed in a recent post that ominous plans are in motion to unleash the Antichrist’s plans.

They wrote: “As we approach the time of the end of the agenda and plans of those that think they have the answer to what utopia on Earth should look like are rapidly being implemented.
“Of course, this agenda will ultimately lead to the future Kingdom of Antichrist and the horrible events of the Tribulation period.”
The blog’s authors backed their claims by a passage in Psalm 36:4 NIV.
The passage reads: “Even on his bed he plots wickedness; he sets himself on a path that is not good; he fails to reject evil.”

As well Micah 2:1: “Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds!
“At morning’s light they carry it out because out because it is in their power to do it.”
The blog’s authors then went on to say evidence is piling to suggest Jesus Christ is “ready to enter our world once again” between now and 2030.
They added: “We believe time is very short. Are you ready?”
There are, of course, Christians who reject any and all attempts to try and predict when the Antichrist will appear or Jesus Christ will make his grand return.
According to Stephen Witmer, the pastor of Pepperell Christian Fellowship in Pepperell, Massachusetts, it goes against the ethos of Christian teaching to try and place a date on the world’s end.
He explained: “Waiting based on explicit or implicit date-setting is our human attempt to seize control of the time of Jesus’s coming.
“It removes the uncomfortable, awkward uncertainty of not knowing when Jesus will return by establishing a date, whether exact or approximate.
“But God wants us to wait for Jesus not because we’re confident of a date, but because we trust God’s promise.”
