I don't believe the Bible says there will be one "antichrist". I believe that anyone who denies that Jesus is the Christ is "antichrist", therefore there have been thousands of "antichrists".
I believe there was a man that was the "beast" in the first century who was alive in 70AD whose name, when calculated, was 666.
I also believe that the 1,000 year reign is right now, and that it started in 70AD.
The Bible tells us what will happen at the end of the 1,000 year reign
(Rev 20:7-10) 7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. 9 They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
As we see above, this could describe what dispensationalists and futurists claim happens during their "7 year trib" period. They claim the above happens at the end of the exactly 1,000 year reign. That makes no sense. They have Christ sitting on a throne in Jerusalem ruling the blissful earth, but somehow millions of people in the world gather together under satan to attack Jerusalem.
The above passage in Revelation could easily describe what is beginning to happen in the world today in regards to Israel and the Middle East.
