Bible believer wroteear Forumn, the world stage is now being set for the rise of the satan possed anti-christ! and we as Christians need to get back to the paths that pilgrims trod, the old ways. We need to get the worldliness out of the church!
It is written:2 Timothy 3:1-5 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
It comes as no surprise that these are the signs of the latter days. Deceitfulness is also increasing with worldliness, because you know who the god of this world is? Satan, the serpent of old.

Who is the church? Isn't Christ the true church? It isn't a building. It isn't a group of just one particular group of people. If Christ is the true church then we don't have to worry about getting the worldliness out of the church. Christ is the only way to God He and the Father are one. We need to turn to Christ and lean not to our own understanding.
The Church comprises of true believers, and you should not take wordliness lightly for the Devil is growing more deceiving my the minute. As long as you feel for sure that the Holy Spirit is guiding you and not your own understanding then that is good. The DeVIL himself can masquerade as the Holy Spirit and make as you feel the Holy Spirit is moving you. If you are filled with the Holy Spirit then there is not room for him or his demons to enter in.
It is written:When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. Matthew 12:43-45
That was then and this is now!
So as you can see and take a look around and not only can you perceive the Holy Spirit in action but you can also perceive the increase in deception, false teachers masquerading as ministers of righteousness and newer demonic doctrines which leads to cults and one will eventually arise which will lead to a one world religion headed by the False Prophet which will give powerto the beast.
But hang in there if you believe that Jesus is coming soon because He will take you with him if you look for him with all your heart.
God Bless! Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
