The Jews did not kill Jesus. As WildEcho has said, it was the Romans.

@LadyGrace Christ warned of the anti-Christ and that he was already in the world at his time. The RCC has been anti-Christ since day one. Many people think that an anti-Christ would be an atheist, but to be anti anything means you are against something. Being against something doesn't make you a non-believer. Even Satan believes in God, but would be an anti-Christ because he is against the teachings of Christ. The RCC has been anti-Christ since it's origins.
@IM5688 The Bible states that the Antichrist will not come on the scene until the beginning of the tribulation period. The fact that the Antichrist is not revealed untilafterthe rapture, is taught in2 Thessalonians 2. Speaking of the Day of the Lord, Paul writes that the tribulation will not begin untilafterthe Antichrist is already revealed: “That day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God” (verses 3–4).

“Every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already” (1 John 4:3).
There is a future antichrist yet to come. But the spirit of antichrist is already in the world. In fact, John goes so far as to say: “You have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come” (1 John 2:18).

@IM5688 Yes! The SPIRIT of the Antichrist, right! But THE Antichrist does not show up until after the rapture. Jesus said there would be many coming in his name claiming to be Christ but not to listen to them. But he also said there would be many false teachers and profits and many who are anti-Christ...against God.
