The 'christ' = A fraudulent & insignificant speck of dust that has fallen from a creation-sized piece of sh`t.
The 'anti-christ' = COUNTERMEASURES: In case the `fraudulent` part of the 'christ' gets out of hand.

God promised Jesus Christ to the Israelites who rejected Him then and preferred that Moses talk with God and then talk with them. Jesus Christ was originally sent to just the 'lost house of Israel'. (Matthew 15:24 KJV) But, when He laid down His flesh life at the crucifixion in fulfillment of Scripture, He legally and fairly took His rightful place of Judge of ALL souls.
Deuteronomy 18:15 KJV The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; 16 According to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not. 17 And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken. 18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. 19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. 20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
Hebrews 2:14 KJV Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. 16 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. 17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. 18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
Yes. He could have violated their free will in deciding to murder Him on the testimony of false witnesses. He did not abuse His powers to violate their free will, even when they did this to Him.
The Israelites begged Him not to appear to them anymore in His form. They wanted to deal with a man like them. He promised them He would send a man born from the tribes of Jacob/Israel. Deuteronomy 18:15 KJV The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; 16 According to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not. 17 And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken. 18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
God fulfilled that promise through Jesus Christ born into the king line tribe of Judah, through Mary's father (Luke 3 KJV) and the tribe of Levi through Mary's mother, (Luke 1 KJV), which makes Jesus Christ The King of kings and The Lord of lords. Melchizedek. He has asked nothing of us, that He has not been willing to take on Himself, without abusing His powers or violating the free will of His children.
Hebrews 2:14 KJV Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. 16 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. 17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. 18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
God predicted that satan would try to kill the flesh of Jesus Christ because satan worked similar wickedness in the first age. (Genesis 3:15 KJV)
God did not order the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. God wants mercy, not sacrifice, and knowledge of Him. Hosea 6:6 KJV
IF the 'priests' of the time had been able to withstand satan working through them (2 Timothy 2:24-26 KJV) and they had been following God's Law, (as they promised in Exodus 19:4-8 KJV and Exodus 24:7 KJV) or even their own religious traditions of men, Jesus Christ would not have been hunted to be killed just for healing, teaching Truth and being popular and He would not have been judiciously murdered on the testimony of false witnesses. (Matthew 26:3-5, 59-60 KJV) God predicted that satan would be able to rile up people to murder His Son. (Genesis 3:15 KJV) God did not order it. God does not want burnt sacrifices, He wants our love and seeking to know Him by studying The Letter He wrote to us. (Hosea 6:6-9 KJV) God is against murder and against false witnesses. (Deuteronomy 19:11-12, 15-21 KJV) It is the very fact that this happened that made an Intercessor necessary to help people who love God win the fight against satan in this world with God's help. (2 Timothy 2:24-26 KJV) Jesus Christ submitted to unrighteous judgment and laid down His own flesh life in order to legally fulfill all requirements to take the position as High Priest Intercessor, Defense Attorney FOR people accused by satan, the accuser, in front of God. (Matthew 7:1-2, 12 KJV) God did not have to 'earn' this position of righteous Judge of souls, but because He values His children investigating, seeking Him, and making up their own minds to love Him or satan, He did that for us. To show us The Way that He did perfectly and knows we cannot, but wants to help us with. He lived sinless and followed God's Law, teaching the entire Psalm 22 even as He was nailed to the cross, because we live in these temporary flesh bodies and are accused by satan, not always falsely, for our sins, (1 John 1:4-10 KJV) He lived in the flesh sinless, teaching and healing and submitted to unrighteous judgment of death, so on Judgment Day of souls no one can say to Him that He doesn't understand how rough it is here in the flesh and use that as an excuse for why they had to sin and refused to repent. (Hebrews 2:14-18 KJV)
How did God predict this would happen? We were all with Him for a very long time in the first earth age. satan was very loved and earned a very high position before he wanted to take God's place of being worshipped and judging others. God knows who did what then and He knew that satan would attempt the same in this second earth age. God could've destroyed the third of His children that followed satan in the downfall of the first earth age, but God did not 'make a full end' (Jeremiah 4:18-27 KJV) at that time. Instead, He made this second earth age with His plan to freely offer, at a very great price to Himself, salvation to eternal life of the third earth age for 'whosoever believeth in Him' (John 3:14-21 KJV) and where we all live in temporary flesh bodies and have memories of the first earth age wiped clean, so we can make up our minds in innocence to seek God, learn about Him in His Word and love God or follow satan.
God wills that none of His children perish, but He will not interfere with or force them to pretend they love Him. Love comes from a sincere heart, it cannot be forced, or it is not love. God knows the thoughts of our hearts as we think them, so it's no use trying to pretend or lying to Him. His love for us and His will for us to trust in Him to help us overcome the battles of satan in this world is so strong that He went through the unrighteous judgment, beating and crucifixion to fulfill all lawful requirements to become our Kinsman Redeemer, (when we ask Him to), who helps our mortal souls to become immortal children of God through that bloody (to Him) birth process. (John 16:19-22 KJV) Not just children born of woman in the flesh through a bag of waters, amniotic sac, but children of God born of spirit through individual faith in Jesus Christ. (John 3:5 KJV and 1 Corinthians 15:44-50 KJV)
2 Peter 3:9 KJV The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
