Aleman, Aleman, Aleman,
You do such a disservice to Scripture.
You Judge,
“You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat.” -Romans 14:10
“Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it.” -James 4:11
"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,' when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.” -Luke 6:41-42
and you go beyond what is written.
“Now, brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, "Do not go beyond what is written." Then you will not take pride in one man over against another. For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?” -1 Corinthians 4:6-7
Now, let’s see what the Scriptures actually state regarding the antiChrist:
1 John 2:18
Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.
From this we learn that there is no “antiChrist”, as in one such person, but many antiChrists
1 John 2:22
Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist—he denies the Father and the Son.
From this we learn one of the identifying teachings/beliefs of the antichrists, they will deny that Jesus is the Christ, and will deny the Father and the Son.
1 John 4:3
but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
From this we learn that those who deny that Christ is from God are antichrists.
2 John 1:7
Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
From this we learn that all who deny that Christ came in the flesh are antiChrists.
In summary, this is what we know about the antichrists: There will be many of them, they will deny that Jesus is the Christ, deny the Father and the Son, deny that Christ is from God, and that He came in the flesh.
That’s it, period. Adding anything else to the above is going beyond what is written.
Here’s a simple test anyone can take to determine whether they are an antichrist:
1. Is Jesus the Christ? (Yes or No)
2. Do you believe that Almighty God, the Father, sent His Son to earth in fleshly form to redeem mankind? (Yes or No)
If you answered “Yes” to both of the above questions, you are not an antichrist.
If you answered “No” to either or both of these questions, you are an antichrist.
Again, very simple.
BA- Not an antichrist.
PS- “Learn what this means: 'I want mercy, not sacrifices.' I've come to call sinners, not people who think they have God's approval." -Matthew 9:13
