**Will the Antichrist come from the Catholic Church?**
Perhaps since the Antichrist was a real person, is it possible that he is like a Cardinal or Bishop infected by the spirit of Antichrsti?
According to St. John's epistle (1 John 2:19-20);
> They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if
> they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us, but their
> going showed that none of them belonged to us.
Is St. John talking about the future Bishops or presbyters will become the Anti-Christ who belong to the Catholic Church but separated themselves in a form of schism?
Does Catholic Church have a teaching that one of the Bishops or Cardinals will be the Antichrist?
