Day 13 - 2 John 1:7-13

7 I say this because many deceivers have gone out into the world. They deny that Jesus Christ came in a real body. Such a person is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked so hard to achieve. Be diligent so that you receive your full reward. 9 Anyone who wanders away from this teaching has no relationship with God. But anyone who remains in the teaching of Christ has a relationship with both the Father and the Son.

10 If anyone comes to your meeting and does not teach the truth about Christ, don’t invite that person into your home or give any kind of encouragement. 11 Anyone who encourages such people becomes a partner in their evil work.

12 I have much more to say to you, but I don’t want to do it with paper and ink. For I hope to visit you soon and talk with you face to face. Then our joy will be complete.

13 Greetings from the children of your sister, chosen by God.

So twisting the gospel is VERY serious.

Terrie's Comments:

I think we get can get confused thinking that we might be somehow tricked by the Antichrist... it is so clear here that the Antichrist is someone who is specifically preaching or teaching that Jesus did not come to earth as a man.  If we stay true to the fact that Jesus is the son of God, that he came to earth as a man, lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose again after 3 days and 3 nights in the earth and is now seated at the right hand of God his father interceding on our behalf, then we will not be deceived.
