Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour.>> Great! And that's fine, but when are you going to come out of your religious Castle with all the claims and resulting shame and blame? >>1 John 2:21-23 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.>> You seem to read this passage as if it is filled with barbs, knives and conditional hooks of judgment and the fire of damnation. These are the common tools from mankind's "religious spirit" which has enslaved this world for centuries. Jesus IS the Christ. And everything in this universe is of Him, by Him, for Him, in Him and with Him. And there are no conditional hooks, barbs or fire siren whisltles needed to share this universal uncondiitonal truth. >>1 John 4:2-4 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.>> Ditto.... You don't need to get up on a claim, blame, shame pedestal to point this simple truth out. If you do you are simply feeding the same ONE beast which is from the same ONE dark spiritual source. Love the Wizard! Shine the light! Sing! Dance! Smile and have fun!! Be the child that is inside you and radiate the light that's within from our ONE Lord God in Heaven. >>2 John 1:6-8 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.>> Ditto. Just like Forbes' "Fact and Comment" section. Next..... >>Satan appears as an angel (messenger) of light.>> He has to appear this way to accomplish such a massive level of deception in this world. These spirits have this world spun, hooked, roped and tied up in confusions, abstractions across many, many levels and layers of claims to the point where it's become almost impossible to discover if there is any beginning or end to all the blaming and shaming that inevitably flows forth. >>Accept no substitutes.>> The spirit you seem conjoined with would be perfect for the inevitable day when national and international TV will be filled with such spiritual and religious claims and from which there will be the inevitable resulting blame and shame. Perhaps you can get be the first to a good looking guy to dress up as The Christ with a mellow voice to fit this central casting role. Good luck Greg! I hope you can get over all this divide, label, define, judge and control crap. Life is too short. There is too much to appreciate in this vast universe of His Creation. I am overwhealmed by the wonder, light, energy and Love I freely receive and share each day. This "process of becoming" never ends. Peace. Light! ONE - LOVE! GO!!
