no. Yhwh, Yeshua, Scripture, and the Apostles and all the Reformers
(the first many) all identified antichrists (in prophecy, in the Word, or in person) and all said the world is a wicked place full of people disobedient to Yhwh most of whom are unwilling to turn to Yhwh to be healed/saved.(especially in the last days, as the time of Noah and s and g were).
A remnant is saved ,by Yhwh's Grace and Mercy through Jesus Christ.
According to the book of Revelation , and perhaps the Gospels and some of the OT and other letters in the NT,
the false church led by the enemy of Christ deceives most of the religious church goers on earth (they even have manmade 'visions' (holograms)(world wide news reports) in some of the third world countries now to get the people ready (fully deceived) for what it is going to do next.) .
Would you consider Noah and the seven other people who were saved from the flood 'cynical' ?
Noah preached for 100 years warning the people.
Or Yeshua ? (He watches as 1/3 of mankind are killed, while 2/3 left refuse to call for help and instead curse God ! )
Or the Apostle Paul ? (He testified that everyone abandoned him but one or maybe 2 of those who remained faithful to Yeshua)
Or corrie ten boom ? She watched her family die in the holocaust, and thousands of Jews and christians.
Yet we rejoice in the TRUTH! Yhwh never never never said the world and society ever loves the truth, nor that the world and society would treat Jesus' disciples any better than Jesus was treated (mocked, beaten, scourged and crucified).
AND JESUS SAID "REJOICE ! in the world you will suffer much persecution, but be of good cheer, I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD"
He did not say the world ever gets to be for His followers a nice safe place to be or live -- not until He Returns.
and Jesus said specifically, "woe to you who are rich now, for you have received your comfort"
