The Antichrist can’t emerge until the church is first removed. Some have falsely understood 2 Thess. 2:6-8 to say it’s the removal of the Holy Spirit from the earth.

For when he has come Jesus said, he will convict the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment to come. So what is going to be removed? It's just my personal opinion that it is The church, he who is now restraining will continue to do so until we, the restraining force on the earth are removed then that lawless one, the Antichrist will be revealed.

Whether true or not, she has a huge influence over millions of people. In my opinion, the person who cures cancer would be a hero. Just too bad they couldnt have been around to help my dad.
