II Thessalonians 2: Antichrist comes into the church before the return of Jesus

Building your house on the word from God

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on July 30, 2020) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... In 1982, God called my attention to the writing of the apostle Paul concerning antichrist, and where Paul spoke of the "falling away" that must come before Jesus returns, God said to me: "The falling away are not people leaving the churches but the falling away are churches departing from portions of scripture." The in 2016, God expanded this concept by telling me, "The restraint against antichrist was the scriptures. When churches removed scriptures and set up another doctrine, this opened the way for antichrist to move into the churches." Here are the scriptures showing us the working of antichrist in the churches before Jesus returns. 1 John 2:18 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. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 (KJV) Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto HIM, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin (antichrist) be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 (NASB 1995) Let no one in any way deceive you, for it (the day of the Lord) will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness (antichrist) is revealed, the son of destruction, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God. 2 Thessalonians 2:6-8 (NASB 1995) And you know what restrains him (antichrist) now, so that in his time he will be revealed. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only HE (Jesus, the Word) who now restrains will do so until HE is taken out of the way. 8 Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of HIS mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of HIS coming; 2 Thessalonians 2:10-17 (KJV) 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 14 Whereunto HE called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. 16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ HIMSELF, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, 17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work. Titus 3:10-11 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; 11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself. Acts 20:28-30 Paul speaking to the elders of the church at Ephesus ... 28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which HE hath purchased with HIS own blood. 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. Ephesians 4:4-6 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. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog
