Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
A. 'Who is the х ho (G3588)] liar?' guilty of the lie just mentioned (1 John 2:21).
That Jesus is the Christ - the central truth.
He is Antichrist - `the Antichrist:' not, however, here personal; the ideal of Antichrist is he "that denieth the Father and the Son." To deny the latter is virtually to deny the former. Again, to deny that Jesus is the Christ, or that He is the Son of God, or that He came in the flesh, invalidates the whole (Matthew 11:27).
