On Christ and the Antichrist is one of the earliest surviving Christian works devoted to the mystery of the last times. Written by Saint Hippolytus of Rome, it brings together the testimony of the prophets, the Gospels, the Apostle Paul, and the Apocalypse to explain what Scripture reveals about Christ and His final enemy. Saint Hippolytus begins from the saving work of the Word of God, Who took flesh from the Holy Virgin and conquered death through His Passion. From there, he turns to the rise of Antichrist, describing his deception, tyranny, false signs, and attempt to imitate the true Christ. He examines the prophecies of Jacob, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and Saint John the Theologian with striking detail. Particular attention is given to Daniel's kingdoms, the beasts of prophecy, the ten horns, and the little horn that Saint Hippolytus identifies with Antichrist. The book also explores the mystery of Babylon, the persecution of the saints, and the pressure that will be placed upon those who refuse to submit to the beast. Saint Hippolytus presents the mark of the beast not as an isolated curiosity, but as part of a wider assault upon faithfulness to God.
