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. 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. (1 John 2:18-19 KJV)
This isn't talking about the antichrist, but rather those who have been in the church much like tares among the wheat. It says in verse 19 they left because they were not really Christians. Their true colors came out and they were anti-Christ, so they left.
This is disheartening to witness, but at the same time it confirms that God's word is true. He said it would happen and it does.
