WE ARE TURNING THIS AFTERNOON TO THE WRITINGS IN FIRST JOHN AND INTO CHAPTER 4.
“Beloved, believe not every Spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God. But every Spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is not of God. And this is that Spirit of Anti-Christ, where of ye have heard that it should come, and even now already is in the world.”
Thus we have a very definite admonition by John as he tells us to try the Spirits, because the Spirits are many. In the days when Lucifer was thrown out of the heavens, with him were his fallen Angel’s, and the vastness of the hosts that were with him. There was a condition entering into the earth that was entirely different, the Ancient creations and its peoples found themselves led by a fallen Angel, that had greatly fallen, and of course the areas of declarations that he made to them were not true. The areas and conditions that caused sunken continents and disturbed areas of the earth’s civilization and population, were tremendous in their hour. In the areas of God and the purpose of God He established His own Household in the earth because He had willed to do this. He had ordained that He would send his Kingdom to earth. So in the hours when He was to send his Kingdom to earth He then prepared a body for them to dwell in. It is a rather significant thing that the Children of the Kingdom have by the declaration of the Scriptures, been existent with God in the time of His creation, and this is why we have so many of the evidences of the Scripture sustaining this.
