If Christ is our Whole Mind (Cosmic Consciousness) then anti-christ is our little or fragmented mind (ego).
I've written before about how there are many indications so-called Satan, Devil, etc. is a metaphor of our egoic intellects. Our egos exist in deception, deceive us, appear to be real and true, cause us ALL of our problems, chaos, illness and existential death. To believe in the ego is to believe in death, etc. The correlaries are many and exceptional. So if one worships (seeks sincerely) Oneness with their Whole Mind they are seeking Wholeness of Mind as exemplified in the idea of God. If one worships (seeks sincerely) material, worldly power, etc. they are going the other way deeper into ego - which is to say illusion and ignorance. It is the ego that illudes by its resemblance to true light of mind. But ego is not something foreign to us and requires us to combat it. The ego is the collection of our own self-created beliefs - accepted as truths - when they are quite obviously not true.
