The New Testament Church and the end time apostate churches of antichrist

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 

Jesus says:  You must be born again ... Given a new heart and a new spirit

 

Faith in Jesus replaces animal sacrifices and the law of Moses

 

Worship God in Spirit and in truth.  Religious idols are those things you can see with your natural eyes.

 

John 4  

 

19 The woman (at the well in Samaria) saith unto HIM, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

21  Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship HIM.

24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship HIM must worship HIM in spirit and in truth.

A spirit cannot be seen.

 

Moses saw HIM who is invisible and by that Moses could endure.

 

Hebrews 11

 

24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;

26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.

27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing HIM who is invisible.

Each of us believe God has shown us some things and because we believe we act accordingly.  So we do according to our faith in specific subjects.  And through our faith in what God has shown us, we can do things that the people of the world cannot do.

Concerning antichrist ... Antichrist was already there at the time of the apostles Paul and John.

 

I John 2:18-19  (John said)  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.

 

 

Acts 20:29-30  (Paul said this to the elders of the church at Ephesus)  

 

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.

Men who were "antichrist" were sitting there in the group of elders at Ephesus and they were just waiting until Paul was gone so they could speak and set up their own doctrines and get others to follow their doctrines which were antichrist, opposite to the teaching of Jesus.

 

Hence we have all these denominations spreading doctrine of antichrist, opposite to that doctrine which we see in the New Testament Bible.

Denominations are already trying to divide the body of Christ.

 

I Corinthians 3

 

1  And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

2  I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.

3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

(One says, "I'm Baptist."  Another says, "I'm Methodist."  All this brings division to the body of Christ.)

 

Those of us who are born of God have been given one heart and one spirit which is of God.

 

But many in churches today are not born again.

 

When we are born again God has spoken to us and given us a new heart and a new Spirit. And we are then one in Christ and united through God.  Then we simply identify ourselves as being Christians.

 

But some will ask us which church we go to.  And by doing this they would divide us from others.  They are carnal,

 

Ephesus 4

 

4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

 

When we belong to God, we know God has changed us by giving us HIS heart and a new Spirit, HIS Spirit.
