Series: Living Confidently in the Fundamentals of Our Faith
Sermon: A Caution To Be Aware of False Teachers in the Church and To Avoid Them
Passage: 1 John 2:18-23
Pastor Gus Gill

Introduction

1 Timothy 1:18-20; 1 John 2:18-23

1. A caution to be aware of the Antichrist and the antichrists in the church.

A. The context and theme: Living confidently in the fundamentals of the faith.

B. The Antichrist will come in the last hour. Daniel 8:9-12; Daniel 11:36-39

C. Many antichrists will come into the church.

D. They will deceive and question the deity of Jesus and question whether He really came in the flesh. 2 John 7

E. You can't have God without Jesus. John 14:1-7

2. The characteristics that mark genuine Christians.

A. True believers have an anointing of the Holy Spirit. John 16:13-14

Missional Morning - March 30

Hillside! Come be a part of the next Missional Morning where we will continue to explore the topic of God’s heart for the nations seen throughout the Old Testament and New Testament. Join us behind the barn doors at 8:15am on Sunday, March 30, as we continue exploring what it means to live missional lives. What does it look like in our relationships, at work, while on vacation, or during family dinners? This is a special time to gather, discuss, pray, and reflect on how we serve both locally and globally. Let’s be in prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us, and to prepare our hearts to be sensitive to His prompting in every moment.
