Lisa BevereHOST
What you have done is just ministering to this generation.
Lisa BevereHOST
Your best-known book is Total Forgiveness, and you've sold over two million copies of that book.
Lisa BevereHOST
No, that's not true.
Lisa BevereHOST
That's not true.
John BevereHOST
No, you can't get your trunk closed.
John BevereHOST
That's a little inside joke.
John BevereHOST
But Dr. Kendall, you have just written a book, Doctrines of Demons from the Angels of Light.
John BevereHOST
Now, this really got my attention when I was reviewing the notes before we had you on.
Joe HeschmeyerGUEST
He tells us this specifically.
Joe HeschmeyerGUEST
He says, 2 John 1, verse 7, Many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh.
Joe HeschmeyerGUEST
Such a one is the deceiver and the Antichrist.
Joe HeschmeyerGUEST
So, Catholics are bigger than Protestants, and I think Catholics and Orthodox alike are bigger than Protestants, in affirming the incarnation, in affirming the goodness of the body and the bodily nature of the incarnation.
NoelleGUEST
That was Matthew chapter 16.
NoelleGUEST
If you are reading through the Apostles twice this year, you will also read 2 John.
NoelleGUEST
And that completes our readings for today.
NoelleGUEST
This is Noelle with Daily Bread for Busy Moms.
Dannah GreshHOST
Now let's get practical.
Dannah GreshHOST
Why is an objective standard of truth so important? Nancy is going to help us answer that question by taking us to 2 John, which is a short little book, just one chapter, but packed with goodness.
Dannah GreshHOST
It's written by the same John we read from a moment ago, and he loves talking about Jesus as the truth.
Dannah GreshHOST
Let's continue with Nancy as she tells us what this name of Jesus means for us.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
They had different ideas.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
I believe in 1 John and maybe 2 John 2, there seems to be some sort of debate there too about whether he rose again in the flesh.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
They keep using that word flesh.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
Does that point to diversity of thought around this idea?
E. Stephen BurnettHOST
that the apostle John calls the spirit of Antichrist or Antichrist, little A Antichrist, or maybe even big A Antichrist coming as the kind of the final boss of the end times.
E. Stephen BurnettHOST
John says that in 1 John chapters 2 and 4, and then there's another reference in 2 John.
E. Stephen BurnettHOST
It's pretty clear that these human figures and the false teaching, the blasphemy they represent comes from the devil.
E. Stephen BurnettHOST
And that's why I think Christians are well within their right to speculate, you know, maybe the devil has an end game.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
The actual term Antichrist only makes a few brief appearances in the New Testament, and it does not match the modern conception of a satanic supervillain.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
The term Antichrist is mentioned only five times, and only in two related books, the epistles of 1 John and 2 John.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
Four out of five mentions of the Antichrist occur in 1 John, so let's start there.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
1 John is a letter written by an anonymous person claiming to represent the people who have witnessed Jesus with their own eyes, often borrowing heavily from language found in the Gospel of John.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
So the original historical context of an Antichrist is a particular polemic written by an early Christian leader versus a group of other early Christians who left his community, who the writer says deny that Jesus is the Messiah.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
The writer of 2 John also seems to use Antichrist as a category of person.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
Many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh.
Will ReitzHOST
But with the exception that I'm about to bring up, I haven't read an entire book of the Bible in a long time.
Will ReitzHOST
A couple of weeks ago, we did this though, because if you remember, we preached through Second John and we preached through Third John, and in both cases, we read the whole book.
Will ReitzHOST
We were able to do that because Second John is like thirteen verses and Third John is fifteen verses.
Will ReitzHOST
So we were able to do it in, like, two minutes each.
Will ReitzHOST
So I thought I'd take a shot at another small book, but maybe this one's maybe a little meatier, the Book of Jonah.
Matt BakerHOST
So I thought the phrase keeping it real was the perfect packaging for going through 1 John because that's exactly what kind of person John is.
Matt BakerHOST
Now, John, the writer of 1 John, is they're also the author of 2 John and 3 John and Revelation and also the Gospel of John.
Matt BakerHOST
He's the apostle, he's the disciple of Jesus Christ, the disciple that was probably as young as 13 years old during Passion Week.
Matt BakerHOST
He's the youngest disciple and so he's got a little spunk to him.
Matt BakerHOST
If you hit Revelation, you went too far.
Matt BakerHOST
If you hit 3 John, you went too far.
Matt BakerHOST
If you hit 2 John, you're getting closer, all right? We're gonna be in 1 John, which is right at the end.
Matt BakerHOST
And John is the disciple who knew the heart of Jesus more intimately than most.
