PREPARING FOR THE MESSIAH Part II Text: Matthew 24:1-51

The disciples were curious as well about some very important questions dealing with future events. They asked three questions. 1. When will this happen? 2. What will be the sign of Your coming? 3. What will be the sign of the end of the age?

What Were These Disciples Told about the Signs Proceeding the Return of Christ?

I. THE BEGINNING OF BIRTH PAINS (Matthew 24:4-8) II I. THE BEGINNING OF BIRTH PAINS (Matthew 24:4-8) II. THE INCREASE OF PERSECUTION (Matthew 24:9-10) III. THE ABUNDANCE OF OPPORTUNITY (Matthew 24:12-14

3. Four Characteristics of False Prophets The Love of Preeminence: III John 9 The Love of Money: I Timothy 6:10 The Love of Immorality: Jude 4; Revelation 2:20; II Corinthians 11:15 The Love of Miracles and Spectacles: Hebrews 13:8; Matthew 7:23 II Thessalonians 2:9

4. The Fourfold Message of the False Prophet - II Corinthians 11:1-15 He has his own gospel: II Corinthians 11:4; see also Galatians 1:6 He has his own Jesus: I John 2:18; Matthew 24:24; I John 4:1-3; I Corinthians 12:3 He has his own spirit: II Corinthians 11:4; II John 10; I Thessalonians 5:20-21, KJV He has his own anointing: I John 2:18-27

5. Four Favorite Doctrines of False Prophets The Denial of the Deity of Jesus Christ: John 1:1; John 8:44 The Denial of the Incarnation of Jesus Christ: I John 4:1-3; 1 Corinthians 1:18, KJV) The Denial of the Lostness of Man: John 3:16,36; Matthew 25:46; John 3:16, etc.; Matthew 25:41 The Denial of the Inspiration and Integrity of Scripture: II Timothy 3:16; Matthew 5:18; Genesis 3:1

6. Four Main Weapons against False Prophets: II Corinthians 10:4-6 God's Word: I Timothy 4:13; II Timothy 2:15 A Multitude of Counselors: Proverbs 11:14; Ephesians 4:15-16 Tough Truth: II Timothy 4:2-3; Revelation 2:24; II Timothy 4:3 Pursuit of Love: I Corinthians 14:1; John 13:34-35; Mark 12:29-30; John 13:35

The struggle to be discerning is a challenge even to the elect (Matthew 24:24). 1) immerse yourself in the Scriptures (II Timothy 2:l5), and 2) pursue the love of God (Philippians 1:9)
