In the Last Days, Two kinds of Christ will come

In Africa two years ago on a mission trip, the Lord spoke to sister Liliane and said: I hear the sound of Footsteps. Be ready to be raptured up into the sky, to meet Me. 

Jesus Christ is soon coming back to earth, that’s wonderful to know and it’s a fact. But we need to remember that the Bible says that in the last days, two kinds of  “christs” will come: the Antichrist and the Lord Jesus Christ. We need to remember that! 

Now some Bible teachers say that we don’t have to bother about the Antichrist, because when he steps forth we will already have been raptured a long time ago, before the Great Tribulation. But some say: we will have to go through half of the time of the Great Tribulation. And other Bible teachers say: no, we will still be here when he comes! We will have to go through the reign of the Antichrist. 

When I hear a teaching, I go to the Word and check it out, and I have done that, and I must honestly say that I don’t know for sure, because there is biblical support for all of the three theories, but I will read one verse which strongly suggests that we will still be here. 

2 Thessalonians 2: now brethren, concerning the Coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the Day of Christ had come. Let NO ONE deceive you by any means, for that Day will NOT come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he sits as God in the Temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

When I read these verses, I feel in my heart and spirit as if the apostle Paul says: there will come a day when people will say that the Day of the Lord has come, they will say: “Jesus is here!”, and people will run and rush towards it, but don’t be deceived or troubled, nor shaken in your faith, stand firm, because the Day of the Lord can not come until first the Antichrist steps forth. I might be wrong, but when I read this that’s how I understand it. 

If, I say if, because I am not convinced about it, but if we are still here when the Antichrist steps forth, I believe that many, many who are born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit still will be deceived by him, and I have felt that the Lord wants me to speak about two “christs” coming in the Last Days. The Antichrist and the Lord Jesus Christ. 

In Mathew chapter 24 the disciples ask the Lord: what will be the Sign of Your Coming? And please note what Jesus says first of all: take heed that no one deceives you! And then Jesus speaks about the signs of His Coming, like earthquakes, rumors of war, nation rising against nation, and we see all of that today, but the Lord speaks MOST OF ALL about spiritual deception as the surest and biggest sign of His Coming. Jesus said that False prophets and apostles will rise, make great signs and wonders to, if possible, deceive even the elect, even the true disciples of Jesus Christ, so please remember that this is a time of great spiritual deception. 

So how can we see who is following Jesus or not? Jesus said: I Am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” (John 8:12). 

And in Mathew Jesus said: you are the light of the world. A city on a hill can not be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under the a basket, but on a lamp stand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 

What lives inside of us will shine out from us to others to see. Jesus even said it’s impossible to hide it. 

When I see people who love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ, great men of God like David Wilkerson or Carter Conlon from the USA, I see a light and a glory on their faces, and there is a light, a joy and a love in their eyes. And when I hear them preach, I hear that it’s according to the Word of God. And when I see their faces, I am myself filled with the fruit of the Spirit, I am filled with joy, peace and love for them and I am drawn to them and I would like to embrace them and hug them, because I can see and feel that they are filled with Jesus Christ and they love Him, but the strong Holy Presence of Jesus Christ in them might make me hesitate because of the Fear of God in me. 

Today in the USA there is a big network of new, mighty apostles and prophets, and they go forward with great spiritual power, they perform great signs, healings and wonders, they draw many many born again and spirit filled believers in Jesus Christ to their churches and teachings. They are very successful and they are exalted and praised all over the world. 

But when I see their faces and eyes, there is no light at all, no glory of God, no joy and no love in their eyes. Instead I see a darkness and dullness, and when I see them I am not drawn to them, no, instead I want to walk in the opposite direction, almost run for my life. 

There is a Heart breaking and soul stirring message called “ Run for your life”, preached by Carter Conlon, where he said through the Holy Spirit: run for your life when you see these people and hear their teachings!

And when I hear them preach, I can very clearly understand that this is NOT the same gospel as the apostle Paul preached. Yes, they do quote some Bible verses, but they don’t preach the Word of God in its fullness, but only things which support their new teachings and doctrines and they do it for personal gain. 

Actually it’s very serious because many of these mighty super apostles preach that Jesus was not born as the Son of God, and when Jesus Christ walked on earth, He was NOT the Son of God, but just an ordinary man, like you and me, He was born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit. That’s what they teach, but what does the Word say? 

I quote from 2 John 7: for many deceivers have gone out into the world, who do not confess Jesus Christ as Coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver, and an Antichrist. 

In other words: if anyone denies that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and has come to earth in the shape of a man, he is not speaking through the Holy Spirit, but in the spirit of the Antichrist. That’s what the Word says. 

Also 1 John chapter 4 says the same thing: if you deny that Jesus Christ was the Son of God sent to earth looking like a man, it’s not the Spirit of God, but it’s the spirit of the Antichrist. The spirit of the Antichrist is today in the midst of the church of Jesus Christ, in a great measure, and sad to say loved and praised by many believers in Christ. It’s a fact. That’s what the Word of God says, black on white. 

I say this in love and with sadness, but I have seen many faces and eyes of born again believers in Christ who were baptized in the Holy Spirit and with eyes which once were full of love and joy, but after a few years of listening to these super apostles, as the apostle Paul would have called them, their faces and eyes turn dark and dull. The joy, love and light is gone! I am telling you that there are many preachers like this today and this is actually serious. Don’t be deceived, said both the apostles and Jesus Christ Himself about the Time prior to His Coming. 

If you understand approximately what and who I am speaking about today, please thank Jesus for it, because you have been given the gift of spiritual discernment that might save your soul and life and maybe others also, if they listen to you. But if you don’t understand, please ask the Lord in prayer when you get back home: Jesus, what people are you speaking about in Mathew 7:15-23 and Mathew 24? Who was Konrad speaking about today? Please, reveal the truth to me! Give me spiritual discernment, please! If you pray like that with a sincere heart, I fully believe that Jesus Christ will answer your prayer. 

The spirit of the Antichrist is in the church today, but the Antichrist has not stepped forth yet, nor has the true Jesus Christ come back yet, but the Coming of both of them are close. So what will their coming look like? 

The apostle Paul wrote: the coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception. 

The Antichrist will come in great spiritual force and power, he will do great spiritual signs and wonders, healing and miracles. There is a tendency in the charismatic church today that we look so much for wonders, signs, healings and miracles, and there’s a great risk in that. Yes, when the gospel is being preached in the anointing of the Holy Spirit, the Lord Jesus Christ can do great and amazing things, just as He did in the early church, because Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. But don’t forget that we have a spiritual Enemy and he is a former Archangel and he has great power and can also do such things. Remember that the magicians in Egypt could copy many of the mighty things that the Lord did through Moses. We can not decide if it’s the Holy Spirit at work by looking at spiritual power, miracles and wonders. 

But there is one thing that the Enemy never ever can accomplish: the fruit of the Spirit in a person! Jesus said that we should know them by their fruit. But when Jesus spoke about the good fruit, He meant the fruit of the Spirit! The fruit is NOT signs, wonders, not many prophecies, spiritual power, big crowds of people applauding, no, Jesus spoke about the fruit of the Spirit. Look at their faces, eyes, and character: do you see and feel love, joy and peace, patience, goodness, kindness, humility? If you don’t, there is a great risk there is something wrong. 

I also believe that the Antichrist will rise out of chaos, unrest, fear that has been spread all over the world in the last days. So if, or when, you see all of that spread all over the world, and then someone steps forth who will bring law and order, do great wonders, speak about love, peace and unity, who will unite the world politically, economically and also religiously, a person who will unite all of the religions of the world and say that they all have the same God, you can be sure it’s the Antichrist. 

I believe that many people will say: but look at his good fruit, he is bringing peace, making great signs and wonders, gathering great crowds and everybody loves him, he must be a man of God, maybe even Jesus Christ Himself who has come back to earth! But he is an imposter! Don’t be deceived! 

So how can we make sure not to be deceived by him? Paul writes that the Antichrist comes with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And For this reason God will send a strong delusion that they should believe the lie. 

Remember: God, not the Devil, sends this delusion over these people. The Lord Jesus Christ, Our God, Is Almighty, and He decides also these things. 

And the best way to not be deceived by the Antichrist, or false apostles or prophets is to to love the Truth, and so be saved, as the apostle Paul wrote. Love the Truth, love and get to know Jesus Christ very well, to walk close to Him, know and love His Word and to listen to His Voice and to look for the fruit of the Spirit, in me and in others. 

In me to grow, because when I walk with Jesus Christ the fruit of the Spirit will grow, step by step. If I start walking the wrong way, listening to wrong preaching and false apostles, sooner or later the Fruit of the Spirit will diminish in me. 

But when I follow Jesus, when I listen to true preaching, I will see and feel that I am more and more filled with joy, love and grace and peace. Yes, this can stop growing or even diminish if I have to experience some sickness, or if someone I love dies, but still, if I look at a longer period of time, I believe that it’s going to grow. 

Put Jesus in the center of your life, of your attention, and you will not easily be deceived. Love Jesus, love the Word of God, read it, treasure it, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in your reading. Jesus said: ask, and it shall be given! So ask Jesus to give you more love for Him, ask Him to give you discernment, ask Jesus to place a hunger in your heart for His Word, ask Jesus to give you a love for all people, and He will give it to you! 

But Jesus Christ is Coming soon, it’s very obvious, and I have something I call the “eagle rule”. 

When I am out biking in the summer I love to look at the birds in the air, and when I see a big bird of prey, I ask myself: is it an eagle? Why? Because I love eagles, they are so beautiful and you don’t see them so often so you long to see them. But I have learned that if it’s a question: “is it an eagle”, then it’s not an eagle, because when you see a true eagle, it’s so big, so Majestic, so powerful that you immediately KNOW with all of your heart: it’s an eagle! 

And it’s the same thing with the Coming of Jesus Christ. If there comes some kind of person that people say is a great man of God, and I believe many will say that it’s Jesus Christ come back, but there is just the slightest, slightest doubt in your heart, then I can tell you: it’s NOT Jesus Christ! 

Because when Jesus Christ comes back, there will be something so amazing that we can’t even begin to understand it, and there will not be one single person on this earth that can deny or even doubt: this is Jesus Christ, the Lord, who has come back! 

Because this time, Jesus doesn’t come from earth, Jesus comes down from Heaven! Revelation says: Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him. It will be so clear, so evident, so no one can deny it. 

And He does not come alone! Jesus comes with all of the Mighty Angels in Heaven. 

It’s written in Revelation: now I saw Heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True. He was clothed in with a robe dipped in blood, and His Name is called the Word of God. And the armies in Heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. And Jesus had a name written on His robe and on His thigh: The King of kings and the Lord of lords. 

And Jesus will fight against His enemies and defeat them in an instant, but the followers of Jesus Christ will be standing there victorious, delivered, by the grace of God! And we all want to belong to the Real Christ, to Him who gives us the victory, by grace! And I believe that this is not far away now. 

So hold on to the True Jesus Christ, don’t be deceived by false apostles and prophets, stay in the Word of God, look for the fruit of the Spirit. And if you do that, you will stand victorious, be saved and blessed forever when Jesus comes back. Amen.
