VIII. MAIN BODY:

From last days to last hour.

Acts 2:17 (Amplified Bible)

2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, God declares, that I will pour out of My Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy [telling forth the divine counsels] and your young men shall see visions (divinely granted appearances), and your old men shall dream [divinely suggested] dreams.

A. Last hour for antichrist is coming

"Boys (lads), it is the last time (hour, the end of this age). And as you have heard that the antichrist [he who will oppose Christ in the guise of Christ] is coming,"

Last or "eschatos" in Greek meaning:

1. farthest, final, end of, latter end

2. lowest, uttermost

Time or "hora" in Greek meaning: hour

1 John 2:22-23 (Amplified Bible)

2:22 Who is [such a] liar as he who denies that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah)? He is the antichrist (the antagonist of Christ), who [habitually] denies and refuses to acknowledge the Father and the Son.

2:23 No one who [habitually] denies (disowns) the Son even has the Father. Whoever confesses (acknowledges and has) the Son has the Father also.

An antichrist is someone who habitually denies or acknowledge that JESUS is the CHRIST, Savior or Messiah and also denies the FATHER GOD.

What do we do while waiting for CHRIST?

1. Remind yourselves the bible lessons you received and heard, obey them and change your mind thru them

Revelation 3:3 (Amplified Bible)

3:3 So call to mind the lessons you received and heard; continually lay them to heart and obey them, and repent. In case you will not rouse yourselves and keep awake and watch, I will come upon you like a thief, and you will not know or suspect at what hour I will come.

2. Revere GOD and give Him Glory

Revelation 14:7 (Amplified Bible)

14:7 And he cried with a mighty voice, Revere God and give Him glory (honor and praise in worship), for the hour of His judgment has arrived. Fall down before Him; pay Him homage and adoration and worship Him Who created heaven and earth, the sea and the springs (fountains) of water.

B. Last hour even now many antichrists have arisen

"even now many antichrists have arisen, which confirms our belief that it is the final (the end) time"

1 John 2:22 (Amplified Bible)

2:22 Who is [such a] liar as he who denies that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah)? He is the antichrist (the antagonist of Christ), who [habitually] denies and refuses to acknowledge the Father and the Son.

1 Timothy 4:1 (Amplified Bible)

4:1 BUT THE [Holy] Spirit distinctly and expressly declares that in latter times some will turn away from the faith, giving attention to deluding and seducing spirits and doctrines that demons teach,

1 John 4:3 (Amplified Bible)

4:3 And every spirit which does not acknowledge and confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh [but would annul, destroy, ever, disunite Him] is not of God [does not proceed from Him]. This [nonconfession] is the [spirit] of the antichrist, [of] which you heard that it was coming, and now it is already in the world.

2 John 1:7 (Amplified Bible)

1:7 For many imposters (seducers, deceivers, and false leaders) have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge (confess, admit) the coming of Jesus Christ (the Messiah) in bodily form. Such a one is the imposter (the seducer, the deceiver, the false leader, the antagonist of Christ) and the antichrist.

It is a sign for us to be more committed in our walk of faith than ever before because CHRIST is coming near. Our motivation is CHRIST's Presence not of the antichrist.

Comparison of last days with last hour:

Last days is characterized by:

1. Outpouring of the HOLY SPIRIT

Acts 2:17 (Amplified Bible)

2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, God declares, that I will pour out of My Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy [telling forth the divine counsels] and your young men shall see visions (divinely granted appearances), and your old men shall dream [divinely suggested] dreams.

2. Perilous times of great stress and trouble will come

2 Timothy 3:1 (Amplified Bible)

3:1 BUT UNDERSTAND this, that in the last days will come (set in) perilous times of great stress and trouble [hard to deal with and hard to bear].

3. Mockers, scoffers or scorners will come

2 Peter 3:3 (Amplified Bible)

3:3 To begin with, you must know and understand this, that scoffers (mockers) will come in the last days with scoffing, [people who] walk after their own fleshly desires

Jude 1:18 (Amplified Bible)

1:18 They told you beforehand, In the last days (in the end time) there will be scoffers [who seek to gratify their own unholy desires], following after their own ungodly passions.

Last days has already passed and replacing it comes last hour which is only characterized by one: appearances of antichrist. Now we are living in these last times that people claim they are christs making themselves antichrists.

IX. CONCLUSION:

Revelation 22:20 (Amplified Bible)

22:20 He Who gives this warning and affirms and testifies to these things says, Yes (it is true). [Surely] I am coming quickly (swiftly, speedily). Amen (so let it be)! Yes, come, Lord Jesus!

Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS, that in these last times You have given us a sign of Your return. Even so LORD JESUS come soon.
