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. They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out, so that it would be shown that they all are not of us. But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know. I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie is of the truth. 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. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.
The period beginning with the ascension of Christ until his return is a period labeled "the last days." In this time, tares will grow up with the wheat making it difficult to know true prophecy from its counterfeit. The false will lead many astray. The disciples of Jesus Christ will never deny him. Jesus is the manifestation of the full glory and person of the Father. Whoever denies Jesus Christ rejects the Father also. Many say I believe in God, buy you cannot deny Christ and receive the One who sent him. Therefore turn to the work and the person of Jesus so that you can be saved and be spared a time of wrath.
Daily Prayer: Father, I know you take no delight in religion, but desire for your children a relationship with you. That access was through the Son, because nobody can come to you apart from Him. Receive me Father as your own and reach out to my family and friends so that they might believe. In Jesus name and for his sake I pray Amen.
