"Concerning the
coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our
gathering together to him,,Let
no one deceive you in any way. For it will
(come) not be, unless the (Apostasy) departure
comes first, and the man of (lawlessness)

he
who opposes. ... Now
you know what is restraining him, (the Apostles)
to the end that he may be revealed in his own
season. For the mystery of
lawlessness does already work. Only there is one
who restrains now, until he is taken out of the
way. Then will the lawless
one be revealed, whom the Lord will (neutralise)
kill with the (word) breath of his mouth, and
bring to nothing by the manifestation

TRUTH DIES WITH APOSTLES
1.
Millions of members of the various Christian denominations believe their churches are a continuation of God's work on earth started by Jesus and the Apostles. They believe they are representing God with his approval; in reality this could not be further from the truth.
2.
By the end of the first century, the conveyors of true theocratic knowledge were all dead. The first 'presence' period of Jesus Christ had come to its end, the spirit assisted period of revealing knowledge was over. Man made theories and doctrines were now systematically removing any remaining influence left by these first century Apostles and disciples, true spiritual knowledge was dying from the earth, with them. However, a safe deposit of knowledge had been created and recorded in the Greek scriptures of the Bible.
3.
The possibility for humans to obtain true theocratic knowledge after the year 70 AD without the power of the spirit would no longer be possible. Or not until this same 'helping spirit' was again reactivated. Bible chronology indicates this reactivation does not take place until some 2,000 years later, when the Gentile times end and God's allotted time of non-intervention with the nations ends. Many claim the Christian religion started by the Apostles has continued on and is still doing so. According to the Apostles themselves, this is certainly not what they expected to happen after they died. These Apostles wrote under spirit direction how the situation would dramatically deteriorate.
SPIRIT COMMUNICATOR
4.
Jesus promised his apostles in the year 33 to maintain a direct link with them until the Jewish age came to its end. He said: "Look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the (Jewish) age" Matthew 28:20 (W&H/SJB). Even though Jesus returned to the spirit realm, he continued to maintain a direct link with each of these individuals, by means of a powered spirit connection.
5.
The Jewish age or system ended in destruction at the hands of the Romans, as Jesus predicted it would at Luke chapter 21 verses 5-6, & 20. Historical records confirm this occurred in the year 70 when Roman armies under Titus destroyed the temple and the capital city of Jerusalem, removing Jewish inhabitants from the land of Israel.
6.
Jesus' special contact with his apostles lasted until the final one died. The Apostles understood they were working within a limited time frame. This is why Paul in the year 56 speaking on how his contemporary Christian brothers should conduct themselves, said they should bear in mind that the remaining appointed time was short, (1 Corinthians 7:29). By the year 56 the time left to them was greatly reduced to 14 years, so on this account they should mind their contractual agreement..
7.
This bonding through spirit power not only strengthened them but educated them on matters they were previously unable to grasp. When connected to this power source, relevant Kingdom matters became clear. To obtain this power, they required a spirit 'receiver'. One hundred and twenty Apostles and Disciples first gained this exclusive piece of equipment at Pentecost 33. The scriptures inform us it was represented by a flame of fire that sat on each one, (Acts 2:1-4). It worked with their minds, giving some the ability instantaneously among other things to to speak new languages. It elevated them mentally, enabling them to receive knowledge and understanding on Kingdom issues and developments they previously had been unable to grasp (John 16:12-15). It bound them together into one composite functioning body with Christ. An example, for the first years from 33, new members had no access to the Greek scripture teaching of Christ, they had not been written, yet the spirit revealed to each one what they needed to know.
LIMITED PERIOD8.
This spirit helper was provided to selected individuals over a limited time. When they died, this power died with them. Information in connection with the Kingdom came with warnings about a situation that would develop following the Apostles deaths, when this spirit power operation would end with the generation period. The apostle Paul warned that a full-blown apostasy ("abandoning or renunciation of a religious belief or principle") would soon take over. He emphasised that the very warnings he was giving them were acting as a restraint, holding back the main apostasy until they, the Apostles died off and the generation period along with the Jewish age ended. Note, although Paul stated it was partly in evidence then, he confirmed it would not be fully in the open until the restraining influence of the Apostles with the spirit working through them were out of the way in death.
10.
The last living apostle John, toward the end of his life around 98AD, confirmed what Paul had already said about this Antichrist, that by then this Antichrist was taking over fast. The restraints had all but died off, proof they had reached the end of the first Kingdom recruiting period
" (It is the last hour) .... and as you heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen. By this we know that it is the end time (the last hour )" 1 John 2:18 (WEB).
The term 'apostasy' has the original Greek meaning of separating, deserting or abandoning. The Antichrist apostasy would abandon true knowledge in favour of its own perverted man made teachings. In this way, the apostasy directly opposed what Christ had taught and revealed; it became an Antichrist organisation.
THE OPPOSING APOSTASY TAKES OVER11.
With the restraint of the Apostles removed through their sacrificial deaths, the Antichrist apostasy completely took over. This apostasy development would be allowed to run for a set period of time, Paul said:
"For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts (desires) ; and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to fables (false stories)." 2 Timothy 4:3-4 (WEB).
12.
Under direction of the spirit, the Apostles prophesied this Antichrist take over after they died, they understood that for a set period of time, this apostasy organisation would rule all powerful, believing and teaching the original Genesis 3:4 lie, the doctrine that the human soul was immortal "they should (come to) believe (the) lie;" 2 Thess 2:11 (WEB). According to 2 Thessalonians 2:8, this apostasy period would not come to an end until Christ exposes it at the 'manifestation of his second presence'. The apostles warned of the many false teachings and doctrines the corporate apostasy would bring in and establish through their own appointed 'ear tickling' teachers.
IDENTIFICATION MARKS OF
THE APOSTASY.
13.
* Bring in destructive contradicting teachings, 2 Pet 2:1."among you also there will be false teachers, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies (sects)," (WEB).
* Exploit their followers with deceptions, 2 Pet 2:3 "they exploit you with deceptive words" (WEB).
* Follow teachings of demons, hypocrites speaking lies, 1 Tim 4:1,2 "the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines (spiritual teachings) of demons, through the hypocrisy of men who speak lies" (WEB).
* Forbid some of their members to marry, 1 Tim 4:3. "forbidding marriage (to marry)" (WEB).
* Make decrees not to eat certain foods, 1 Tim 4:3."commanding to abstain from foods" (WEB).
* Would turn from the truth to false stories, 2 Tim 4:4. "they will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to fables. (false stories)." (WEB)* Deny that Christ the is only begotten son of God, 1 John 4:1-3. "Many false prophets have gone out into the world. every spirit (inspired expression) ... who doesn't confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the antichrist, .. you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already." (WEB).
False Trinity teaching that Jesus is God (Yhwh).
APOSTLES RESTRAINTS END; APOSTASY SETS IN
14.
As soon as the last apostle died, this is precisely what happened! Once the resistance of the spirit empowered apostles was no longer there, the truth-abandoning apostasy rapidly spread and gained ground. The second century saw much confusion, contradiction and conflict. Opposing apostate religious Christian divisions were vying for dominance.
15.
These religions evolved doctrines and ideas that were mixed with the Apostles' teachings. Whenever conflicting differences in doctrines arose, gradually the weight of the many pagan concepts won out. With no power assisted apostles left to resist this progressive mixing and polluting of doctrines, the real strength of true Christian knowledge was diluted out.
16.
Ideologies incorporating multiple God deities, particularly triad deities central to Greek and Roman religions were brought in. Greek philosophers, such as Plato, held beliefs in multiple gods and man's relationship with them. These concepts have been derived from more ancient civilisations, such as Egypt. From these hand-me down ideas, the Greeks and thereby the Romans cultivated their ancient religious beliefs including the immortality of the human soul, an underworld of purgatory and Hell tormenting with fire and triad family deities. All of these eventually became incorporated into pseudo Christian/Pagan religions.
17.
Through mixing in these polluting pagan ideas, the pure truth was more or less completely dissolved out. One of the more serious foretold apostasy doctrines to appear was one that contradicted Christ's position as the only begotten Son of God (1 John 4:3,5,6,9). By tracing the history of the apostasy and the evidence on how this denial doctrine on the origin of Jesus Christ developed, it can be seen how the spirit taught truths of Jesus and the Apostles, were indeed erased.
18.
With the restraints removed, a melting pot of religious ideologies and doctrines developed. Various conflicting thoughts and pagan concepts from the Roman, Greek, Hebrew and Christian religions were stirred into a simmering broth. As time passed, the friction and confusion often brought the pot to the boil, resulting in many heated clashes. Under various leaders, groups of dissenters gathered and followed their own particular teachings. By the year 325, some 225 years after the last Apostle died, this whole divisive situation was causing great concern to the pagan Roman Emperor, Constantine. He was experiencing troubles within his empire and the unrest and conflict this caused between these pseudo Christian and Pagan groups was not helping. To try and settle things down, he set up a council in the city of Nicaea to sort the mess out and agree to a unified state religion that he could live with. What emerged was as far removed from the teachings of the Apostles as it was possible to get.
19.
According to 2 Thessalonians 2:8, this apostasy period would continue until Christ exposes it at the 'manifestation of his second coming'. This second presence starts in October 2029 for further information on how and when "Then will the lawless one be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath (spirit) of his mouth, and bring to nothing by the brightness of his coming;" (WEB).
