This book was first written in French, and the question seems trivial in English, as there is no "antéchrist" in English. So the question for our English friends should simply be: What is an Antichrist?
The definition is: '"An impostor who, according to Revelation, is to come before the end of the World to try to impose a religion opposed to that of Jesus Christ".
Most people who ask themselves questions about the Antichrist think that the term may apply to some more or less known dictators in man's history. Many think that Hitler was an Antichrist because he put six million Jews to death during the Second World War. Others say that Napoleon also has been an Antichrist because he brought war all over Europe, as far as Egypt and Russia.
Men who do not understand what the Revelation really means write dictionaries and they judge it by what they have learned. Therefore, their definitions encourage fallacies in our understanding. I do not blame them; I only acknowledge their ignorance.
The Antichrist, the impostor, does not exist in any person known or unknown to history. The Antichrist is materialism. This happens when spiritual truths, compassion, the sharing of goods and riches are left aside. The Antichrist is, actually, the pursuit of money for the sake of money, of riches for the sake of riches.
We must be cautious when saying this or that person is an Antichrist. When people talk and say that someone in the politic World is the Antichrist, and when people begin to believe it, the vibrations of the mass of thoughts they send towards the individual creates the monster.
WE MUST NOT FORGET THAT THOUGHTS CREATE AND THAT WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR CREATIONS.
When, because of circumstances presented to us, we forget our spiritual nature, we become the monster, the Antichrist. The person who is spoken of by many people may not please everyone; that does not make him/her a bad person or an Antichrist.
The Antichrist is, in the Revelation, the Dragon, the Beast. It is the evil learning
of humans; the refusal of spiritual values, the negative use of our creative
potential. It is materialism. It is the use of machines without incorporating love within our tasks.
Therefore, I do not entirely accept the general definition. The Antichrist is not a person we may recognize on the street, who comes from the sky, or is an outsider. The Antichrist is born within each and every one of us when we misuse our spiritual talents and become egotistical, perverse, negative souls; and when within us there is place only for us.
