The antichrist is called 'satan's seed.'

     Genesis 3:15, And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel.
Old Testament prophets told of the conflict between God's Chosen People and satan's world dictator.

     From Genesis to Malachi they described this enemy of God in a variety of names and titles that indicate his rise, his rule and his defeat by the coming Messiah.
In Revelation 13:12 the prophet John tells us that the False Prophet, "causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed."
Jesus, though He is truly God, came to "do the will of His Father."

     The antichrist will be a man totally possessed by satan, "his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power." Daniel 8:24 
His purpose will be to serve his father satan.

        Just as the Holy Spirit leads men to worship the Father through Jesus Christ, the False Prophet will force men to worship satan through the antichrist.
The Old and New Testament both continually show God manifested in the form of three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

      The Bible also reveals satan, the great enemy of God, in the great tribulation at the end of the age as Satan, Antichrist and the False Prophet.
