Re: Day of the Lord...False Christs
"Then if anyone says to you,' Look, here is the Christ or There do
not believe it. "For false christs and false prophets will rise and
show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
"See, I have told you beforehand. "Therefore if they say to you, Look,
He is in the desert do not go out; or' Look, He is in the inner
rooms do not believe it. (Mt 24:23-26)
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, 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. For the mystery of lawlessness is
already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken
out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the
Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the
brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to
the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,
(2Thes 2:3-4,7-9)
Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is
antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son
does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the
Father also. 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 2:22-23,4:2-3)
