The Antichrist is a Jewish male who is probably alive, according to Rev. Jerry Falwell. Falwell, who was involved in national politics during the 1980s and whose sermons are carried weekly on television across the United States, made these comments in a recent talk. He later explained that he did not think his comments were anti-Semitic, but that the Antichrist will be a Jew because Jesus was a Jew.
