Yes, the birthplace, or the cradle of Antichrist, was the own Church, unfortunately, see how.
1 John 2:v.18-19
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. (Compare with Hebrews 1:v.1-3)
Very interesting this revelation of the Apostle John of the primitive Church. Who is the Apostle John talking about or to whom is he referring in the verse above? Do you know?
See, we know that the book of Revelation was showed to John around year 95 AD, i.e. 65 years after the ascension of JESUS to the third heaven. And we know also that there are two distinct Beasts described in Revelation 13:v. 1 to 18. Today, after about 2,000 years, we can and should discern both Beasts will lead / conduct two distinct satanic religious systems in near future, but one, the FIRST Man Beast, the Gentile Beast of sea, he already exists for a long time, the another has not yet, but he will manifest in near future. Then there will be two satanic Beasts and both will establish the universal and satanic KINGDOM of Antichrist, a religious MONSTER of 7 heads, 10 horns and a TAIL-Revelation 12:v.3-4 and 7-12.
In fact one of the two Beasts already exists since ancient time, it has existed for about two thousand years, that is, the Gentile Beast of sea-Revelation 13:v.1-10-, and sea=waters, it means peoples, and nations, and multitudes of all tongues-Revelation 17:v.15-, a satanic religious system developed by Satan within the Roman Empire, after he had corrupted the church of Rome that was established by the Apostles Paul and even Peter, and both were killed by persecution, and thus was developed satanic Antichrist's movements through the corrupt church of Rome, the ancient Catholic Church, later Roman Catholic Church. Notice that the book of Revelation describes 7 churches, and the church of Rome would be the eighth, but it was left out because the APOSTATE church of Rome was/had been already completely disapproved by JESUS.
In fact, the church or Rome developed a systematic opposition against to the true Churches of the Lord that preached the Gospel of God's Kingdom, preached firstly by the Lord JESUS Christ, and continued by the Apostles and disciples of the Lord, by the way, it is still preached until today.
The satanic religious structures and organizations of the Roman Catholic Church within the Roman Empire, which rides upon the Beast of sea, the Pope, since the confuse election of the first Pope in the first century after Christ, who can be Linus or Clement, and for to increase the confuse election of whom really is the first Pope, then the own Satan, the main leader of the blasphemer movement of Antichrist of the Roman Catholic Church, even he himself, time after, from the late 2nd or early 3rd century, by convention began to consider Peter as the first Pope. It was/is more a satanic blasphemy.
About the events above described, and the corruption of the Church of Rome, see what the Word of GOD reveals by the VISUAL testimony of John Apostle : 1 John 2:v.18-21
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that Antichrist shall come, even now are there many Antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 They (the Church of Rome) went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the Truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the Truth.
What we can say is that the woman, that is the Babylonian Roman Catholic Church, the great Whore, married to 266 Popes, currently Francis I is the Pope, she sits upon the scarlet colored Man Beast of sea, the Pope, the Papacy - from the Latin expression Pater Patrum - , full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns, IN FACT a religious and satanic MONSTER, reason by which the RCC is called Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth, which is drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.
THE PUNISHMENT OF THE ANCIENT AND CORRUPT CHURCH OF ROME FROM NOW ON - THE WORD IS GOD
Revelation 18:v. 1 to 5
1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
