The Several Antichrists

Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Aug 12, 2020

These are the tares present in the church but have never been a part of the body of Christ. The existence of the many antichrists in the church describes those that were not really believers. The Bible describes them as those without root, the tares in the church.

In this second part, we shall do well to reveal the several antichrists that exist in the church. These studies shall help to identify the marks of those ...read more
