At times there are those among us who are not of us. We may not know that they are not of us until they go out from us. We only know that they are not of us when they no longer continue with us.
There are many antichrists. The one who denies the Father and The Son is antichrist. To deny Jesus as the Christ is to lie and make oneself a liar and an antichrist.
In this last hour, let us know through the anointing that we have from the Holy One that Jesus is the Christ and that we have a Father in Heaven who longs for us to overcome by faith.
1 John 2:18-23; NKJV
18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.
23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
