Is the AntiChrist "Evil"?

         According to scripture, God's record shows he will send lying spirits into the mouths of all prophets but one. He says he has reserved for the final day beasts before then never seen. He will destroy cities by casting hailstones of fire upon them. The casting down of Satan from heaven with a third of the angels and him going about because his time is short could simply mean the time he has to accomplish his purpose, for which God "threw him at mankind", cast him down, was short. Did he not have God's full approval to plague Job, his faithful servant?
       So we have an anti-Christ that is to come. Did not Jesus say "I have come to bring the sword and not peace"? Is the anti-Christ not scribed as coming under the pretense of peace but really bringing war. Such qualities of intent don't automatically imply evil, do they? Nope, they describe God's servants of vengeance upon people. And God's elect people will recognize the one honest prophet as well as the anti-Christ, not be misled and yet not fight it or the anti-Christ because it is all there to serve God's purpose, to bring an end to this system. Amen.
      Really, Satan was defined as mankind's accuser, not God's enemy. Mankind has waged war against God. The enemy of my enemy is my best friend, could be? So God and Satan in cahoots in a war against humanity? Is that so unrealistic to imagine? And what of this anti-Christ, even if he or she is evil? Does not scripture say God preserves evil men for evil deeds, to be exactors of his revenge and punishment? For example, would not God preserve alive a vile rapist to humble a woman who consistently and unrepentantly rapes other people of their means and/or dignity? So, before any satan or anti-Christ is led into eternal judgment or fires of transformation, could they not be used by God to punish people? And in that case, their actions are righteously guided though evil in deed, saving a righteous person from having to do it, thus keeping the righteous person's hands clean. In which case, we can be grateful for the continued presence of evil men doing those necessary evil things. Embrace your dark angel in service to the king.
