This is a hypothetical scenario, not based on any facts.
I really just want to see what people think, assuming they want to think, would happen if the following events played out.

Again I must remind people this is a hypothetical scenario.

What if the Anti Christ arrives first and realises that they are the AC. Then the Christ arrives and realises they are Christ.

They both realise it doesn't matter what they are, only what people believe. Since a large portion of the religious population would expect the AC first, what if the AC just laughed and walked away.

Where would that leave Christ?
 Quoting: Bunji



I hardly see any intelligent questions on GLP, this is one of them.


The scripture has what I call modifiers of prophecy.

Everything is labels. Generic frames where the people that will fulfill the prophecies may or may not fit.


Christ and Antichrist are modal labels, like Satan or God.

They dont refer to specific beings, but are titles.
Whomsoever saves or do the work of a savior becomes the christ.
Whomsoever opposes a christ is the antichrist.
whomsoever is worshipped is a god
whomsoever opposes a god is an adversary/satan.

You hardly have any objective elements to hold on to. Like traits, genres, behaviours, laws, teachings, commandments, acts, etc. Everything has to be analysed like if it was Math. Or else its just religion, due to the skepticism. But since it is religion, then I guess people always have the right to not believe.





Person A, is becoming AntiChrist, see that he is moving to a precipice. Jumps from the car moving. Saves himself from the consequences written on the book for the character acting as antichrist.

This possibility is allowed and presented on the end of Revelation.

Antichrist role becomes open. Someone else comes.

Of course there are lures to step into the position. Like being subject to sins and subjecting others to sin.

There are many antichrists.

Antichrist is seen as the bad guy.


Even the way of interpreting the role is totally modal.

Because the acts of the antichrist are not described in an objectively and undeniably negative way towards all groups of people. It might be negative towards the elite only, or Jesus, or Jesus Christ, or the very elect, or the people of one religion or another and so on.


When the person who is traditionally linked to the antichrist is described, there are ways to interpret its actions as positive, or silly, or neutral or even comedic.

The language used on the Bible is highly simbolic, parabolic, metaphorical, alegorical...

Some only interpret a character such as the antichrist as someone who is likened to Adolf Hitler.

But such is not absolute truth.

Antichrist could be any person opposing the christ, or the two witnesses.



Imagine you have 3 people, if two get together, they become the two witnesses, the third who is annoyed or jealous of them could become the antichrist. At some point, one of the two witnesses might become false or stop witnessing, and the person who was to be the antichrist might become a witness instead. And the person who was a former witness, could then position itself and ending up being the antichrist after all.


You have to look for the minimum objective denominator, the core, the bone structure of what each label indicating a subject, each verb indicating an action, each circunstance, each relationship between characters and so on.

Its all about points of view being different.


Satan can be against Satan.
Wich could just be a description of a husband and a wife dwelling together.

Iran calls Israel - Satan
Israel calls Iran - Satan


They could be just Judah and Israel, two brothers. All is allegory.
Issac and Ishmael.
