Antichrist

/ˈæntɪkraɪst/ noun

Definition

In Christian theology, a powerful figure or force that opposes Christ and is expected to appear before the end times.

Etymology

From Greek 'anti-' (against) plus 'christos' (anointed one). The term appears in biblical texts and evolved through medieval theology into a symbol of ultimate opposition to Christian values.

Kelly Says

Different Christian denominations have identified the Antichrist as everyone from the Roman Emperor Nero to papal popes to modern political figures—showing how the same religious concept gets used to attack whatever enemies exist in each era.
