ACTS FOR THE FACTS The Right Keys to God's House

 



"And I will give to thee the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. "




Have you ever tried to open a door using the wrong keys?

Jesus to Peter in Matthew 18:18 And I say also to thee, that
you are Peter,
and upon this rock I will build My congregation;
and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

19 And I will give to thee the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven.
And whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in Heaven, and whatsoever you shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in Heaven.”

20 Then He charged His disciples that they should tell no man that He was Jesus the Christ.
(they would preach "Jesus is the Christ" AFTER they were Spirit baptized in Acts chapter 2, and THEN they would tell the world who Jesus is.

The KEYS WERE USED IN ACTS after Jesus ascended to HIS GOD AND FATHER.
Wrong keys:
None preached a trinity.
None preached Jesus is God.
None preached "accept Christ as personal savior".
None preached believe in Jesus and keep the law of Moses.

Many will miss entering in for using the wrong keys.
But it is easy to repent and believe the gospel they preached in Acts.

The true temple is the House of God, which is not a building. The apostles laid the foundation in ACTS. Those are the unassailable FACTS.

SUMMARY:

The Door:
John 10:9 𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒐𝒐𝒓; 𝒃𝒚 𝑴𝒆 𝒊𝒇 𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒎𝒂𝒏 𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒊𝒏, 𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒃𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒅, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

The keys to the faith and kingdom:
: 𝙄 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙜𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙚𝙮𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙆𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙙𝙤𝙢 𝙤𝙛 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣.

Peter preached the true Christ Jesus in Acts to the Jews and in Acts 10 to the gentiles, thus opening the door.

: AFTER receiving the Spirit,  Peter preached and the keys were in his words.
To the Jews first, Acts 2,3,4,5. And to the first gentiles, Acts 10.

Everything else is a house built on sand.

𝑮𝒐𝒅'𝒔 𝑯𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒃𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒕 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑹𝒐𝒄𝒌: 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝑯𝑹𝑰𝑺𝑻, 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑺𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑳𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑮𝒐𝒅.

The foundation of the temple "not made by hands":
Eph 2:20-21
𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒃𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒃𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒕 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒂𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒕𝒍𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒉𝒆𝒕𝒔, 𝑪𝒉𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝑯𝒊𝒎𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒇 𝒃𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒓𝒏𝒆𝒓 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒏𝒆,
in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord. NASB95

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Addendum:  Here is the text of Peter's Words to the Jews in Jerusalem, Who Jesus is, and what to do with that knowledge.  
Whereas it should be a model for gospel preaching, it is actually ignored, replaced by false ideas, and the central message even argued against!

22 “Ye men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man approved of God among you by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God did through Him in the midst of you, as you yourselves also know —
23 Him, being delivered by the determinate will and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken and by wicked hands have crucified and slain.
24 But God hath raised Him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it.
25 For David speaks concerning Him: ‘I beheld the Lord always before my face, for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope,
27 because Thou <GOD> wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt Thou suffer Thine Holy One to see corruption.
28 Thou has made known to me the ways of life;
Thou shalt make me full of joy
with Thy countenance.’
29 “Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us to this day.
30 Therefore, being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn an oath to him that from the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh He would raise up Christ to sit on his throne,

31 David, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of Christ that ‘His soul was not left in hell, neither did His flesh see corruption.’
32 This Jesus has God raised up, of which we are all witnesses.
33 Therefore, being exalted by the right hand of God,
 and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, He hath shed forth this which ye now see and hear.
34 For David is not ascended into the heavens, but he himself said,
 ‘The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit Thou on My right hand
35 until I make Thy foes Thy footstool.”’
 36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39 For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.”

Last Days Series Deconstructing The common anti christ MYTH.

 





Deconstructing The common anti christ MYTH.



WHO is the antichrist?

Before showing you from scripture who antichrist is, let me say that you may likely believe there will be a man called "THE Antichrist" come along, and declare himself to be God, in a building over in modern Israel. That is what so many of us have heard taught and looked for to speculate and identify who "he" is.

Surprisingly, the scripture actually tells us already that many "antichrists" need to be considered, since the man who first used the word "antichrist" wrote that antichrist would come, and was "even now" in the midst of the church.

More surprising is the fact that Jesus never mentioned a man called "antichrist", He never spoke of a re-gathered Israel (he actually voided it as "desolate"), He never spoke of another temple building being built. -nor did John in Revelation, nor did Paul in his epistles, nor did the writer of Hebrews. Those omissions should give pause to seriously reconsider the pre-mid-post rapture views and a lot of modern church traditions.
So if there are "many antichrists" which one is THE antichrist?

Here is every verse using the word.
1John 2:18 Little children, it is the last hour: and as you heard that antichrist comes, even now have there arisen many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour.

1John 2:22 Who is the liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, even he that denies the Father and the Son.

1st John 4:3 and every spirit that confesses not Jesus is not of God: and this is the spirit of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it cometh; and now it is in the world already.
2John 1:7 For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, even they that confess not that Jesus Christ comes in the flesh.

Well look here.. WHO is...?
This <the many> is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Who?
1John 2:26 These things have I written to you concerning them👈 that would lead you astray.

Oh my, the " many deceivers" are "them" who "lead you astray" ?
If you saw the "not in scripture" list on our site, you begin to get an idea of how much leaven there is in Christianity...

SIX IDENTIFYING "antichrist" CLUES ARE FOUND:
1. "These have I written to you concerning them that would lead you astray.
2. "many false prophets", "he that is in the world"
3. "come in the flesh".
4. "Confess not" which means to not speak the same as that Jesus, <the Jesus as they preached in ACTS. Rather "they" come to you preaching out of the flesh.
5. They have the "spirit of error"
6. and does it get any plainer than John 2:22?
1 John 2:22 (NLT) And who is a liar? Anyone who says that Jesus is not the Christ.

Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist. (anyone is a plural company)

1 John 2:22 (NKJV) Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ?
He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son,
Let me say it as:
Who is "THAT Jesus Christ"? It is not "the Apostle's Creed" or a "What We Believe" list, etc.

These are fleshly explanations and definitions and they are words not found in the scriptures themselves.

Anything added to or diminished from God's Word is "leaven".

To "confess" is to speak the same as:
In the Greek word for "confess", "homo-logeo", i.e. "confess" Christ, means to speak the same as, agree, declare the Christ of scripture and not make doctrine from their own formula or explanation.

-the "trinity" being a good example of a term not "homo logeo" in scripture. There are many such terms in the church system on a wide range of precepts.

To DENY IS:
to speak against, disavows, or speak contrary to the Word itself.
You can hear comments like "What Jesus really meant was...", or "that was for them back there. Times have changed", or "that's the way we do it around here", and many other justifications for not accepting what the Word says.
..............................
Therefore we have the "MANY deceivers" among us, in our midst, who do not speak the same as the Word and pervert the gospel, who are the "many" Jesus, Peter, and Paul spoke of, who are "antichrist".
Some are merely repeating what they are taught by others.

Usually in this day of prominent professional ministries with large followings, people "feed" on the ideas and teachings without seriously testing them or praying about whether something is correct or not. I think we have all done this in our journey.
-And so the scriptures are fulfilled regarding "many deceivers", "deceiving and being deceived", "many shall follow their pernicious ways and be "made merchandise of". 1 Peter 5 is of note.

Thus are the wolves, deceivers, fake shepherds, hierlings, and false prophets among those who are Christian, and are mostly hidden in the body as Christ. - just as Judas, the first Son of Perdition was also hidden in the midst of the body of Christ among the twelve apostles..

And because they are not yet revealed, they may preach, do signs and miracles, and proclaim Jesus Christ, but they are as Judas who did those very same works,
but was the antichrist hidden in the body of Christ, among the twelve apostles.

As John wrote:
"many deceivers have gone out into the world", and "These things have I written unto you concerning them that would lead you astray"

Matthew 24:5 For *many* shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ;
and shall lead *many* astray.
-and so the deceivers also "confess Christ", not that they claim to BE Christ.

How else would they be hidden?

Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray.
Luke 21:8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not led astray: for many shall come....
*the "many", whose "end is perdition", is the corporate body of antichrist, the “son of perdition”.

Jeremiah 12:10
Many pastors have destroyed My vineyard, they have trodden My portion under foot, they have made My pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.

For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, even they that confess not *that* Jesus Christ ...............cometh in the flesh.
(they that speak not the same as that Jesus Christ)

THIS IS the deceiver and the antichrist: Who? He said the "many".

"THIS is THE antichrist", a body, i.e. a great company of deceivers, just as also the "great harlot", the body of Christ, the bride of Christ, and Israel all are corporate bodies of a multitude of people...

What some believe, erroneously creating from the "constructs" in the Babylonish church system, which
include cherry-picked phrases like "man of sin", "son of perdition", "the Assyrian", the "willful king", "he who sits in the temple of God showing himself that he is God", or "abomination of desolation".

While some of those may have some relevance to being "anti" Jesus Christ, they are mis-applied to the point of common acceptance without better examination and applied to a mythical one man in a building in modern Israel.

Each one of those can and should be examined without the bias of mis-applying them as "The Antichrist".

In other related posts, I will deal with what "constructs" are, and we are all familiar with many of them. Most are error and lead away from truth.

A Fake, and just what "the temple of God" is, according to the New Testament scriptures, and very anti-Christ Fake Israel in the Middle East, who are God's chosen people.

As we purge out the leaven together, God bless.​
