Antichrists Are Not Just Spirits

[robert derrick]

To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect.

They are not just spirits, but are unjust spirits: the spirit of unjust men made perfectly corrupted in hypocrisy.

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.

They are not just spirits, but men in mortal flesh also.

There is the spirit of antichrist, which is the spirit and god of this world, but there be many antichrists in mortal flesh.

They are false apostles, teachers, and prophets that depart from the apostles' doctrine, and begin to teach their own faith and minds for doctrine of Christ.

All of their spiritual teaching is for sinning while saved by grace: they are not just sinning children of the devil, but are teachers of sinning of the devil, while remaining sons of God.

There is only one test you need to give to anyone who says they are a "christian", and you need to apply this spiritual test.
Its the same one you give a denomination.

Its this.

Do they believe this, or not. ??????????????????

= "The blood of Jesus that saved me, Keeps me saved".
= "Jesus, who saved me, Keeps me saved".

So, just ask them, or just look at the Denomination's Handbook, their " Church creed".....etc.
If the church/denomination is built on LEGALISM, its the same as if the person's faith is built on it., and THAT is the "Anti-Christ" proof.

They = DO NOT BELIEVE that CHRIST = keeps them saved.

They instead will show you their SELF SAVING LIST.

Here are the top 4 "anti Christ" ... Heresies that teach that these keep you saved, and not Christ alone.

1. water baptism
2. commandment keeping
3. law
4. confessing sin

These people and these Cults will all agree that Christ saved them......began their salvation, but all CULTS and all HERETICS DO NOT BELIEVE That Christ KEEPS THEM Saved.
So. if He doesn't, who does?

Again...= if Christ and His BLOOD and SACRIFICE does not keep you saved....WHO DOES ????

ahhhhh.

See that?....There is only one Anti-Christ Spirit answer..= "IM SAVING MYSELF,..im trying to keep myself saved with law, commandments, water, works, enduring, or joining a specific CHURCH....."

Reader....THAT is how you discern/discover a heretic or a CULT.

"Test that Spirit", and you have found "anti-Christ".
See, the anti-Christ Spirit is not just Christ rejection....its also the Spiritual belief and TEACHING of : LEGALISM.
The anti-Christ spirit in the "church" is the spirit that denies that Christ keeps you saved.
Find that person, or find that "church", and you have discerned the "anti-christ SPIRIT".

That is the spirit of "anti-Christ"... Its Atheism or = Legalism.

For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

While they say that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh with their lips, they do not confess coming to Jesus in the flesh, as He has come to us: righteously pure inwardly and outwardly.

They preach worshipping Jesus Christ as God, but they do not believe in living like Jesus as a man: worshipping Him as God is good, but living like Him as a man is not possible.

Antichrists make the man Christ into a Superhero only in this life: one with immortal sinless flesh, while we are but men with mortal sinful flesh.

Therefore, the man Christ Jesus cannot possibly be our example of living as a man of flesh and bone, but we can only idolize Him for his super-heroic life without sinning.

The antichrists that preach a created christ do the same: Jesus was just a Superhero that was defied by god, for living a really great heroic life on earth.

In this manner, all antichrists are a latent form of worshipers in their very own pagan cult of the man and great hero Jesus Christ.

None of them preach walking in His steps as a man in mortal flesh: they declare that is not possible.

And unsurprisingly they all believe all men, except Jesus, are born with sin nature: they call it being born dead.

Other than stillborn babes in mortal flesh, there are also stillborn doctrines of devils and antichrists in the flesh.

Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:

Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray.

Antichrists are them forsaking the doctrine of Christ given to His apostles, in order to teach their on doctrine of a false christ, that declares living like Jesus on earth is impossible, so celebrate grace while sinning.

Just be sure not to enjoy it as much as before, and talk about how you really really hate doing so.

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

We are to try the spirits coming to us: not just look on the outward and hear their words, but judge whether their words and deeds are true according to Scripture.

We don't just believe whatever people say, no matter how smiling and neighborly they look, nor what really great and wonderful things they say:

And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies.

Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

We are to judge their spirits by judging their doctrine, whether it be of the apostles' doctrine or not, and so whether be doing righteousness or sinning.

He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

No antichrist will ever preach living like Jesus as a man on earth.

They will say Jesus Christ has come in the flesh, but not like our mortal flesh, but rather like that of another kind of man on earth.

And so it is they say it is impossible to live in our flesh, the way He lived in His flesh.

And yet, the disciples walking with Him in the days of His flesh, were observing the law every bit as much as He was.

Some disciples were no doubt adulterers and adulteresses, but none of them were committing adultery while walking with Him.

The only time antichrists preach of living like Jesus as a man in the flesh on earth, is when they condemn them that do and preach His righteousness without sinning while walking in His steps today.

Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.

I think the anti-Christ are those who would rather be popular than do God's will.

 

[robert derrick]

Jesus' flesh was just like all flesh born of a woman: mortally made by man's physical seed, as is all mortal living creatures on earth.

Jesus came in the flesh of all men, but unlike sinning man, He did not sin as a man in mortal flesh.

Antichrists say He did not come in the flesh of sinful man, but in another kind of flesh without sin in it.

 

[robert derrick]

I think the anti-Christ are those who would rather be popular than do God's will.

Or just not do God's will, popular or not.

But they do go on to rail against God's will, while claiming to speak for Him:

And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies.

I think the anti-christ are those who tell people what they want to hear, rather than what they need to hear, and their motivation is that they want to be popular.

That is no spine people pleasers.

Antichrist beasts go out of their way to fight against the doctrine of christ, antichrists are not lukewarm:

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.

And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

Fortunately you many have never met them. I have.

In fact, I was once one of them, but as Paul said, I did so ignorantly.

There are many in the churches. What does Satan enjoy more than leading the churches astray?

The term antichrists wasn't really applied to the demons Robert, rather it was used for those who were preaching a different gospel, most of whom had left the faith as the apostasy was well under way when John penned that.
