FALSE TEACHINGS

ABOUT CHRIST

1 Now the Spirit expressly says thatin later times some will depart fromthe faith by devoting themselves todeceitful spirits and teachings ofdemons,2 through the insincerity of liarswhose consciences are seared,

1Timothy 4:1-3

3 who forbid marriage and requireabstinence from foods that Godcreated to be received withthanksgiving by those who believeand know the truth.

1Timothy 4:1-3

HOW TO TEST FALSE TEACHINGS

1 Beloved, do not believe everyspirit, but test the spirits to seewhether they are from God, formany false prophets have gone outinto the world.2 By this you know the Spirit ofGod: every spirit that confesses thatJesus Christ has come in the fleshis from God,

1John 4:1-3

3 and every spirit that does notconfess Jesus is not from God. Thisis the spirit of the antichrist, whichyou heard was coming and now is inthe world already.

FALSE MESSIAH

DOCTRINE

JESUS IS ONLY A MAN CHOSEN AS MESSIAH IN HIS TIME, BUT NOW GOD CHOOSES A MAN TO BE A MESSIAH FOR OUR TIME

ALONE.
