At the time of John and Paul the apostasy is rising also in the churches and they speak of this

Building your house on the word from God

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ...

Antichrist and the apostasy spoken of by the apostle John: 1 John 2:18-19 (the apostle John says) 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. 19 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. 💥💥💥 The apostle Paul speaking to the elders of the church at Ephesus: Acts 20:29-30 29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 💥💥💥 So the apostasy, antichrist, was already working along side the New Testament Church in the days of John and Paul. And so the apostasy grew each decade with men setting up churches by their own names and their own wisdom and putting hierarchy of ministers by their own will and imaginations. And they built enormous buildings unto themselves. And they did as they willed, setting up rules by their own thinking. But always there was a ribbon of people who were of God, having the Spirit of God and following that Spirit given to the church. The apostasy grew and grew as an enormous glutton feeding on itself and in the eyes of the people of this world. But they could never get rid of that small group that had the Spirit of God and that group, though often hidden in the caves and dens, existed even unto this present day. Hebrews 11 32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: 33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, 34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. 35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: 36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: 37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; 38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. 💥💥💥 At the return of Jesus the churches of the apostasy, of the spirit of antichrist, will be destroyed by Jesus. 2 Thessalonians 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming: 💥💥💥 Matthew 24:31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 💥💥💥💥💥
