Subject: antichrist |
Bible Note: I am not a new believer. As a matter of fact I have been a part of the kingdom since April of 1978. I hold a liscense and ordaination from the SBC. These don't really mean much but that man has a system that I don't mind submitting to. I still don't believe in the person of the antichrist. I have a real problem with the "fear based" teaching that pervades the church today. Why do we insist on teaching people that the reason we evangelize is to have fire insurance? We are still stuck in the same mentality that the disciples had even after Jesus' resurrection, when they still were hung up on the physical attributes of "the kingdom of God". This idea is what permeates the rapture and apocalyptic teachings that exist. When Jesus speaks to his followers in Matt.24 and says to them that their generation will not pass..for some reason we don't believe him...because we are still looking for a future event. Look into human history and you will see that everything that Jesus said would happen in those guys lifetime did happen, if not would he not be a "false prophet". And HE is not a false prophet! It's hard for believers to see that the kingdom has come because they believe the "great tribulation" must come first. OF course, they don't want to be here for that, so they want to make their hasty exit out of here. Expecting Matt24 and Luke7 to be fulfilled in the future prevents them from seeing that the kingdom came in Acts 2. Jesus said "I won't drink wine wiwth you again until I drink it anew with you in the kingdom" On the day of Pentecost , they tasted wine that had never been drunk before and they toasted the king and the coming of the kingdom. The kingdom is not meat and dring, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. So, receiving the Holy Ghost gives us the kingdom potential to walk in the kingdom! The kingdom of God came in power! "The big, bad wolf" teaching would us believe that we go thru seven years of tribulation or escape it..."are you pre-trib, mid-trib or post-trib?"...Fact is there is "no-trib"! Only in America is the escapist theology important. Try telling believers in India, China, Russia and other parts of this globe that they will not go thru tribulation. It is a slap in the face of Christ's on words.."In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good courage, I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD!!!" John 16:33. I would love to continue..but my fingers are getting tired, maybe I will write more another time...but I would challenge anyone to look at historical records and compare with what Christ said in the gospels and line them up with other prophetic scripture...the surprising fact is that it has all taken place...WE DON'T NEED TO FOLLOW CHIRST OUT OF FEAR BUT FREEDOM..WE SHOULD SHARE THE GOSPEL BECAUSE IT BRINGS LIFE NOW ABUNDANT NOT FIRE INSURANCE..THERE IS SO MUCH MORE I WILL SHARE AT ANOTHER TIME. |
