Matthew 24:24 ” For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect – if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time.”

Jesus warned of false signs and wonders and the deception of false christs. Now these false christs don’t necessarily deny the existence of Jesus… but rather claim to be the incarnation of Him. Over the centuries there have been many who have come claiming this…Sun Myung Moon, Jim Jones, and David Koresh for a few you might recognize. These false christs amaze the crowds with signs and wonders and claim to have direct insight and communication with God, but in reality are just men and women with very delusional minds. But then there are the anti-christs…which are the consummate false christs. We read in II John 7, “Many deceivers, who don’t acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the anti-christ.” They claim Jesus wasn’t really God incarnate and so preach another christ…a very corrupt christ. Either way, as Believers, we need to be ever vigilant and discerning of things we hear…always applying it to God’s Word.
