Preface:  Vol. 5

Jesus says, "BE READY" for HIS return.

*****

The apostasy (the falling away from scripture in churches) has happened and is continuing to happen ... antichrist has appeared through many preachers in churches today and through the hearts of congregations who approve these preachers as they remain sitting in those apostate churches where scripture is completely omitted or changed to allow sin to be approved and even flourish in the congregation.

All this sets the stage for the return of Jesus which could happen any time.

II Thess. 2:1-4 ... Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

*****

The falling away (the apostasy) ...churches falling away from scripture by completely omitting scripture or by explaining scripture away to allow sin into the congregation and to approve those in congregation as they commit sinful acts which are opposite to instruction in Bible.

Man of sin (antichrist) ... a spirit taking over in the hearts of those persons who change the scripture.

We must discipline ourselves to be steadfast as long as God chooses to leave us on this present earth.

We must exercise ourselves unto godliness by a deliberate act of our will ... reading Bible and godly exhortations daily ... choosing God in our daily ventures.

This book is an avenue to help us daily to surround our minds with God's way and to uproot the thinking of men.  

Romans 12:1-2 ... I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world:but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
