False Christs Matthew 24:24

What is a False Christ? Christ – (Χριστός, Christos) messiah, deliverer False Christ – ( ψευδόχριστος, pseudochristos )

What is a False Christ? A false Christ can be one who claims to be the promised messiah (or a great prophet) who amasses a following – Joseph Smith, Mohammed, …

What is a False Christ? A false Christ can be one who believes in Jesus of the Bible but he is given a false persona. Man creates someone who permits that which is contrary to the Bible Antichrist – one opposed to the Christ of the Bible 1 John 2:22, 4:3

It is a false Christ who teaches… Everyone is going to be saved Universalism is popular now Such removes accountability Luke 13:23-30 Matthew 7: Corinthians 5:10-11, why preach if all are saved?

It is a false Christ who teaches… Unity in diversity Some emphasize how Jesus came to unite. Denominationalism hinges on few key doctrines and all else is judgment We’re going to heaven, just by different routes

It is a false Christ who teaches… Unity in diversity Jesus did come to bring peace – Isa. 9:6, John 14:27, Ephesians 2:14-17 This is an inner peace found in obeying Him (true unity) John 17:20-21, cf. 1 Cor. 1:10-13, 4:17

It is a false Christ who teaches… Obedience is not necessary Some teach, “faith only” – both becoming and staying a Christian. Such misunderstands both faith and obedient works (not meritorious) 1 Thessalonians 1:3, Hebrews 5:9, 1 Peter 1:22

It is a false Christ who teaches… Holiness is not necessary Holiness is separation from the world, being set apart for God Some come to God with conditions – they want to continue living their sinful lives – fornication, homosexuality, sinful marriages, … Hebrews 12:14, 1 Peter 1:15- 16; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

It is a false Christ who teaches… Repentance is not necessary Repentance is misunderstood by many! Some fail to call for repentance upon obedience We HAVE TO repent! Luke 13:3, Acts 2:38, 3:19, Romans 6:1-2

It is a false Christ who teaches… Repentance is not necessary Some teach a “modified repentance” – there are certain things one need not repent of (i.e. MDR - Matt. 5:32, 19:8-9, etc. )

It is a false Christ who teaches… Jesus never offended anyone Some believe the message needs to be pleasant and avoid controversial or offensive subjects. They might reasons such topics can be addressed in more private studies. The problem with this, you may never have another chance!

It is a false Christ who teaches… Jesus never offended anyone YES He did! Matthew 15:12- 14, John 6:60-61, 66 He called them wicked - Matthew 12:34, John 8:44, Matthew 23 “hypocrites” (7x) 2 Timothy 4:2-4 Acts 2:37-38 – they were cut to the heart (also Acts 7:54 )

It is a false Christ who teaches… His commandments are just suggestions Some today see scripture as outdated. Or they see Jesus as a good man and philosopher, but not the Christ. Either Jesus was who He claimed to be or He was an evil impostor. Matthew 7:24-27, John 12:48

There are false christs and we need to beware! Will you accept the one TRUE Christ?
