I have a question. I was talking to my grandmother about the Antichrist and I was just wondering if the church will see the Antichrist before Jesus returns? Or will Jesus return and take the church before the Antichrist reveals himself? Please use scriptures. Thanks!

Christians will see the Anti-christ and they will suffer persecution from his followers.

Revelation 20:KJV
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

The answer comes from 2 Thes 2:

2 Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, [SUP]2 [/SUP]not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. [SUP]3 [/SUP]Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, [SUP]4 [/SUP]who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

Paul makes clear, Jesus will not return until AFTER the Man of Sin is revealed. I believe the Man of Sin is already alive and leading a major power and I'm quite certain I know who he is.
