I don't attend "church", FFH. And the whole point of a Baha`i community is to 'consult' on the community's business--spiritual or material in an open forum--since we have no clergy.
I DO know what my community members are thinking, we can't be a community without knowing that. We can't be community members without a commitment to open communication.

Scott
I'm not saying it's not taught in church, just people freak out, in general, when you mention this term or try to talk about it...
It's clearly discussed in the Bible, Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants and has been taught/discussed by many Prophets and Apostles of the LDS church and is included in LDS Gospel Doctrine manuals and many other manuals, magazines and other writings of the LDS church..

America’s Promise
Marion G. Romney
I do so as a warning against the ongoing
anti-Christ trend in America today. Communism is the greatest anti-Christ power in the world today and therefore the greatest menace not only to our peace but to our preservation as a free people.

Words of the Early Apostles: Safely Anchored by Love
H. Ross Workman
John’s Warning Speaking to those early Saints, aware of the advancing apostasy, John sounds a warning: “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that
antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; … Many false prophets are gone out into the world” John warns that the path to darkness is paved with lies, not only the lies told by anti-Christs and false prophets, but the lies of those who deceive themselves. “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves”

Apostasy from Christ becomes
anti-Christ, and who among us can afford that? To be anti-Christ is to be against him, to fight against him, even in silent disobedience.
