The Doctrine of Spiritual Gifts

Point 4.
Developing the capacity you need to function effectively in your spiritual gift.

When you have doctrine in your soul that has been tested, you can discern evil trends in Christianity.

1. Ecumenism disguised as unity in the Body - 1CO 11:18-19; JER 6:14.

2. Morality disguised as spirituality -
MAT 23:25-28.

3. Earthly dominion disguised as the heavenly kingdom - PHI 3:17-21.

4. The social gospel replacing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, God’s Son - ROM 1:16, 2CO 11:4, GAL 1:6-9 .

PHI 3:20
For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;

5. Emotion and experiences obscuring the truth of the Scriptures.

Apostasy means teachings and practices that are contrary to the Word of God yet seduce and deceive both professing Christians and true believers.

The Bible tells us that an apostasy or a major falling away will occur in the time period immediately preceding the Rapture and the Tribulation period.

The day of the Lord is that extended period of time beginning the tribulation period and extending through the second advent and the millennial age. [Pentecost, Things to Come, pp. 230-231]

The complete apostasy metastasizes after the Rapture of the church. However, the apostasy will begin its development in the last days of the church age.

The worldwide kingdom on earth that is coming next will not be ruled by the Lord Jesus Christ but will be ruled by the Beast of Daniel and Revelation.

There will be a total rejection of biblical Christianity, and it will be replaced by the worldwide ecumenical religious system of the Tribulation called Babylon the great, the mother of harlots.

The Book of Revelation is the textbook of world history from the time of John A.D. 96 to the end of time.
