Reflections
Very often in our everyday life we, consciously or unconsciously, use ideas and expressions which are biblical, but do we know the meaning and significance of these invaluable words? Aren’t we using them inappropriately, out of place? The show “Reflections” touches upon these issues.


Antichrist
Antichrist, Leviathan: its metaphorical usage means a man unpleasing to God, an evildoer, blasphemer, that is someone who acts against God's commandments. Later, this word started to be used as a swear word and generally mean a bad or cruel man. The word “Antichrist” is found in St. John's epistles: “Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour”(1 John 2:18).


Angel
This word is used in non-religious context as a symbol of spiritual and physical perfection. A virtuous human can be called an angel, and this comparison includes appreciation, praise or flattery. The “angelic” attribute shows the highest degree of certain qualities: patience, meekness, sinlessness, purity, the character generally, and physical beauty.
