The Bible teaches that we are in the last time, marked by the presence of many Antichrists, as described in 1 John 2:18.
In 1 John 2:18, we are reminded that it is the last time, evidenced by the existence of many Antichrists. The term 'last time' indicates a final period leading up to Christ's return, a time characterized by the culmination of God's redemptive work initiated through Christ. The Greek word used, 'eschatos,' denotes the utmost point in a series of events, confirming that we are living in the final dispensation of grace. This period began with the completion of Christ’s work on the cross, as he declared, 'It is finished' (John 19:30), signifying the fulfillment of all redemption promises.
