Antichrist

                                                    

While many Christians are not being taught anything about antichrist, others are mainly taught about the Antichrist and 666. The verses below will help bring some needed insight and balance. We must be aware that the spirit of Antichrist is already at work and many antichrists have already come. It will help our understanding if we also know that anti can either mean against, opposite or in place of.  

If you will begin taking an honest and discerning look at the world around you as well as at parts   of the church you will begin to see that an anti-Jesus and anti-Christian civilization that is undergirded by anti-Jesus and anti-Christian political/judicial power is on the rise.

As always, I am calling for enough Christians to unite in the faith and fully accomplish what Jesus wants of His church before He returns.

Little children, it is the last time (hour): and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.

--1 John 2:18

Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is the antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.

--1 John 2: 22

Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

--1 John 2: 23

Note: 1 John 2: 23 specifically addresses some who knock on doors. Some of you have friends who fall into this category. Pray for and witness truth to them before it is too late for them.

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming; and is now  already in the world.

--1John 4: 1-3

For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist!

--2 John 1:7
