10. 2. Who is the Antichrist? He is one person, an unbeliever functioning under the cosmic system, who sells himself out to the devil eventually being possessed by him.

25. John is not trying to identify either of these Beasts as antichrist, but to warn any who would deny the person of Christ that they are walking in that type of (false) system.
