rv disinfo; the term means exactly what it says; further, 1 John 2:18 & 22 states "even now" and "whosever denieth"
The word '''Antichrist''' comes from the [[Greek]] αντί-χριστος (''anti''-''khristos''), meaning ''opposite of Christ''. The Greek word ''anti'' can also mean 'instead of' or "equal to, like" so that the phrase can also be interpreted as meaning ''in place of, or like, Christ''. The term has a number of distinct uses in modern English. It can mean an extreme form of evil or evil incarnate. Some Christians believe that the use in John refers to a single being that will appear in the [[End Times]]. This view is most commonly found among [[Dispensationalism|dispensationalist Christians]].
