Receive grace to hear and obey His words of truth for your wellbeing now and at eternity.
JESUS THE EXEMPLARY TEACHER AND AUTHOR OF THE WORDS OF TRUTH. HEAR HIIM.

And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
Friend to enable you not to be on earth and partake in the wrath of the antichrist, during the great tribulation, after which the blessed Holy Spirit would have departed with the raptured saints , please heed His warnings now. See some of them on what to do with false teachers at this end time., raised by the devil to hinder believers from being rapture ready. Their counsel shall fail concerning you in Jesus name.

As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
2 John 1:8-11. Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
May. the good Lord find you faithful and ready, when He comes in Jesus name.
