Beware of False Christs

 
 

Jesus Christ vs. antichrist

Jesus Christ said that there would be many false christs. He said, "watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Messiah' and will deceive many." (Matthew 24: 4-5). Today there are many men around the world claiming to be Jesus, one is in Siberia, another in the RAP industry, and there is one who has been around a long time claiming to be Christ called Sun Myung Moon. There is even the false Mormon Jesus who is the son of a false Father and Mother god and the brother of Satan.

Our Lord and Savior foretold these distortions and false christs. He said, "In those days (end times)..if anyone says to you 'Look, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will appear and preform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, the elect (devout Christians). See, I have told you ahead of time." (Matthew 24:22-25).

False christs abound these days and as followers of the True Christ Jesus found in the Christian Bible and in our being (hearts, souls. spirit); we must be careful to not be deceived by men full of an anti-Christ spirit. Anti-christs are not just those against Christ, it is those who want to replace our Lord and Savior. There have been many anti-Christs throughout history, many of them persecuting the faithful followers of Jesus Christ. But some anti-christs are not as violent, they seek to deceive instead of destroy. These demonized men or women have been sent by the devil to led people astray. Pay not heed to them! Test everything with the Scriptures and the Holy Spirit! Do not visit their meetings and gatherings, for they will seek to seduce you with their spells.

One day the Man of Sin or The Anti-Christ will come. He is the Son of Satan and an abomination. He will wage war against us and the Lamb. But he shall be defeated and thrown in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 19:20, 20:10). He will do greater deceptions and displays of power than the false christs running around now. If we do not take a stand against these frauds now, then we shall not be ready for when the greatest deceiver of them all comes.

Do not be afraid that you are following the false Christ. If you know Jesus Christ from the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in the Christian (NIV, NLT, ESV, and KJV) Bible then you are following the true Jesus. Use the Word of God to help you discern what is of God! That is its purpose! To help us test all things to see if it aligns with what has always been and if it the same God the Apostles knew. Also, be baptized in the Holy Spirit and seek the Gift of Discernment. The Holy Ghost can help us immediately discern a deceiver and help us remember the Bible verses to combat heresies and false christs.

Finally, here is the Bible verse of how Jesus Christ shall return so that no one may deceive you. The Apostles wrote this down because they knew we should know exactly how it will happen, lest we be deceived. Jesus said, "So if anyone tells you, 'there he is, out in the wilderness' or 'here he is in an inner rooms' do not believe them. For as lightning from east and shines as far as the west, so will be the Coming of the Son of Man. Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and glory." (Matthew 24: 26-27, 30). To reinforce this here is the same description of Jesus' Return in the Book of Revelation, "Look, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him even those who pierced Him (Jews and Romans) and all people's of the Earth will mourn because of Him." (Revelation 1:7).

Here is an important tool for exposing antichrists:

"I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out to the world. Any such person (who denies Jesus came in the flesh and was God incarnate) is the deceiver and antichrist. Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Jesus Christ does not have God; but anyone who continues in the teachings of The Father and Son (Jesus Christ) has God. If anyone comes to you bringing a teaching contradicting the truth of Jesus Christ coming in the flesh and being God and One with the Father, do not take them into your home or welcome them. Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work." (2 John 1: 7-11).

The Potrait of Jesus: What Christ Looked Like

What was Jesus’s appearance? Pseudo-historians at National Geographic and other publications argue that Jesus’ humanity was of Arab or African descent. This is impossible because Jesus our God was Son of David according to His flesh, “He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures, regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh, and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord (God),” (Romans 1:2-4), and King David was described as the following, “So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy [red, ruddy, from the word admowniy {ad-mo-nee'}; from 'adam ; reddish of the hair or the complexion red, ruddy], with beautiful eyes and a handsome appearance. And the LORD said, "Arise, anoint him; for this is he. So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the LORD came ...

Dispensationalism

John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) was a man who did two things, he took 70th week of the Book of Daniel and stretched out to the End Times, and he was the father of  Dispensationalism , a belief system that God dispenses different peoples with separate blessings and covenants. According to Darb'ys doctrine of Dispensationalism, God dispenses different covenants. There are total of seven dispensations that divide the history of man: I. Dispensation of Innocence (prior to the Fall, "Do not east of the Fruit of Good and Eve, Eden), II. Dispensation of Conscience ( You must assuage guilt and sin with blood sacrifices.) III. Dispensation of Human Government (Multiply and Subdue the world, example the Tower of Babel Gen 11:1-9, and Genesis 1:28). IV. Dispensation of the Promise (Dwell in Canaan, Jerusalem) V. Dispensation of the Law ("Obey the Law of Moses and the Prophets"). VI. Dispensation of Grace (The Church, Jesus Christ has come...

Orthodox Christianity and Messianic Judaism

There is a divide between the two sides of Christianity. One is lined by a rosary, the other with tallit (prayer shawl). In the west we tend to come from a Greco-Roman understanding of The Bible and Jesus Christ. We are saturated with images of the Crucifixion and see through the red lens of Calvary. Now The Messianic or Jewish perspective is becoming more prevalent as people begin to study the roots of the Christian faith. After all, Jesus was a Jew and his Twelve Disciples were all Jews of different sects and positions in society. By studying the Jewish roots of Jesus we come to understand the ancient customs, practices, rites, and traditions that are featured in the Old and New Testaments. We learn in Jewish tradition that a Rabbi had to be ordained by two rabbis and that when Jesus was asked, "by who's authority do you say these things?, (Luke 20:2)" the Pharisees were asking who had ordained Jesus and where he got his yoke (teachings), and Jesus responds, "wh...
