War against false prophets

  War against false prophets   1 John 4:1 『 Beloved (Ἀ γαπητοί ) , believe not every spirit, but try(dokimazete) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 』 Agapetoi ( Ἀ γαπητοί ) means  “ you who are loved by God, ”  and dokimazete ( δοκιμά ζετε ), to discern, means to thoroughly examine and judge well. The fact that many false prophets have emerged means that those who preach false gospels based on humanism, legalism, and gnosticism have entered the church community.

Understanding the Kingdom of God through the Bible

  Understanding the Kingdom of God through the Bible     Part 1 Introduction   1. Why do Christians believe in God?   There may be many reasons. Some believe in order to go to heaven after death, some believe in order to receive blessings while alive in this world, and some believe in order to escape difficulties and pain in life. People are born in this world, and the basis for believing that they can go to heaven after death is that the body dies, but the soul can go to heaven. Otherwise, they believe that they will fall into eternal fire and hell. And without even knowing why they were born in this world, they simply believe that they can go to heaven if they believe in God. Without knowing the relationship between the world and heaven, they simply think that they can go to heaven if they believe.   2. Is Christianity a religion? Religion is centered on humans. Humans put God first in order to escape from the fear of death. And they establish God to seek...
