I think that this passage refers to those who say that they are 
"Christians" but teach a different gospel.  Since I don't think you 
claim to be a Christian, I think that you would be refered to as 
"unbeliever" rather than "antichrist."

(I put "Christian" in quotes, because the term was not very widely used 
at that time.)
