  1. Antichrist: the Great Pretender Daniel 7

  2. 1 John 2:18-19 18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us. “anti” – a.

  3. 1 John 2:22-23 22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. 23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

  4. 1 John 4:1-3 1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

  5. 2 John 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

  26. King Ferdinand’s Letter Our Lord God Eternal...chose St. Peter as leader of mankind... He seated St. Peter in Rome as the best place from which to rule the world.... Those who lived at that time obeyed St Peter as Lord and superior King of the universe, and so did their descendants obey his successors... The late Pope gave these islands and mainland of the ocean and the contents hereof to the above mentioned King.... Therefore, Their Highnesses are lord and masters of this land....

  27. King Ferdinand’s Letter - 2 Therefore we request you...recognize the Church and its highest priest, the Pope, as rulers of the universe... allowing the religious fathers to preach our holy Faith to you... We...will receive you with love and charity, respecting your freedom... and your rights of possessions and we shall not compel you to baptism unless you, informed of the Truth wish to convert to our holy Catholic Faith... in exchange for which Their Highnesses bestow many privileges and exemptions upon you.

  28. King Ferdinand’s Letter - 3 Should you fail to comply...we assure you that with the help of God we shall use force against you…with all possible means, and we shall bind you to the yoke of the Church and of Their Highnesses; we shall enslave your persons, wives and sons, sell you or dispose of you as the King sees fit; we shall seize your possessions and harm you as much as we can as disobedient and resisting vassals. And we declare you guilty of resulting deaths and injuries, exempting Their Highnesses of such guilt as well as ourselves and the gentlemen who accompany us….
