1 John 2:18 - Forerunner Commentary

1 John 2:18

16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, ^athe lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

17 And ^athe world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

Deceptions of the Last Hour

18 ^aLittle children, ^bit is the last hour; and as you have heard that ^cthe Antichrist is coming, ^deven now many antichrists have come, by which we know ^ethat it is the last hour.

19 ^aThey went out from us, but they were not of us; for ^bif they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out ^cthat they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

20 But ^ayou have an anointing ^bfrom the Holy One, and ^cyou know all things.

21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

I John 2:18-19

So we find there that he says that the antichrist is coming. John, here, is pointing to a specific one—the man of sin, the two-horned lamb (you get the point). Even though the verse said that many had already come, he's alluding to that one is going to come and that they are to look for that one because he will be the sign that we are definitely in the time of the end.
