We would need to define our terms, right?

The Christ is a Jew Himself, and therefore cannot be Antichrist, right?

if you really want to dig in, you will have to reckon with the fringes:

"The answer is easy, Jesus is not a Jew because the people known as Jews today are not of Judah. The Bible itself tells us this.

For this reason Jesus Himself told the church at Smyrna, in Revelation 2:9: "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan."

Just in case that is not understood, Jesus also said to the church at Philadelphia, in Revelation 3:9: "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee."

So according to Jesus Himself, the people calling themselves Jews at this time are not "real" Jews, meaning that they are not actually of the tribe of Judah."

You both are conflating

1) the law

2) the promise

3) the audience

4) the people

5) the words of Christ

1) the law is natural law. The Torah is merely a documentation of a part of natural law, of which is infinite in nature because we are infinite beings, sons of the infinite Father.

2) Jesus is the promise given to Adam, Noah and Abraham.

3) The audience of the old testament is those who left Egypt, descended from Abraham. The audience of the Gospels is the nation of Israel while Jesus lived. The audience of Revelation is those living in the "end times" which is now. The audience of the epistles is the gentile churches.

4) the genetics of (the majority of) the people who call themselves Jews today are not descended from the tribe of Judah, no matter their assertions. Their claims are fabricated, and this is well documented.

5) Christ himself said that nobody can go directly to the Father accept through Him. This statement, if you accept him based on evidence of his resurrection, puts the ceremonial and spiritual cleanliness components of the law. It does not invalidate the law in the Torah, but it does give us a path of reconciliation through the adoption through Christ and through the power of the spirit of Truth.

In summary, the Jews of today are not Jews by way of genetics and they are ALSO Antichrist by way of definition of having rejected Christ.
