Let's also not forget that, if one is thinking about the 'antichrist' as referring to the Beast in Revelation, then the clues within the book point firmly to Nero Caesar - both the number 666 and the number of emperors in chapter 17. This ties in with your warning about misuse of Scripture - it is the failure to take it seriously in its historical context that is often the first step towards an idolatrous "bibliolatry". Thanks for your reflection on idolatry – one of the biggest temptations facing Christianity today!
