NASB | 1 John 4:3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 4:3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus [acknowledging that He has come in the flesh, but would deny any of the Son's true nature] is not of God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming, and is now already in the world. |
Subject: Is there such a thing as a false Christ? |
Bible Note: "I think that you should become aware that verse 17 with its "But" shows a difference in spirit between the one who joins himself with the harlot and the one who joins himself to the Lord." Hi, Ray! I am aware of this fact... but when I state false Christs, I am not saying that Christ is false or that He is anything other than God! I have known people who think that they are serving Christ by claiming His Name--yet, they submerge themselves in spiritualism (contacting the realm of the dead), astronomy (searching for truth and guidance in symbols and planets), and numerology (seeking a divine path to God through a bogus science)... all these brush with the occult in one way or the other... but these people (the ones I've met) do not distinguish between the fellowship of Christ and those "mediums." In essence they have created a false teaching (as Santeria--a mixture of Catholicism and Voodoo)... we can witness a similar "false" Christ in the verious public people who profess to be Christian (by word, affiliation to a Christian congregation, or carrying a cross); yet the Christ they follow is a mixture of "feel good," Oriental/Asian spiritualism, and their own interpretations of Christ! Sadly, those who become one with abomination will never, simultaneously, be one with Christ, yet they live the fallacy that God is good and all forgiving so people are free to worship as they please; hence the "false" Christ! God Bless! Angel |
