Modern Christianity is pretty much all heresy.

1. Baptizing babies
2. Rapture
3. Instant salvation
4. Religious schools ordaining priests and preachers
5. Paid preachers
6. Gay preachers
7. Ordaining women
8. Pedophile priests
etc...

Jesus and the original Apostles spoke of two completely different types of “believers” in the last days. And they gave some signs to look for...There would be the real believers and those that are basically fooling themselves.

Jesus spoke in plain words when teaching about this state that people would be in during this time period. And He said that the real believers would be few in number. Jesus said that the fake believers will have deceived themselves so completely that they won’t truly understand it until that moment that they are cast out of His presence at the judgement.

Paul gave a couple signs of these fake churches. Paul said some “abstain from meat” and others would “forbid to marry”. And called these the doctrines of the devil. These weren’t just bad doctrines these are signs of false churches. Which among all the “Christian” churches forbids their leadership to marry? Which one doesn’t eat meat?

Another sign is people claiming you can receive salvation without adhering to the eternal laws of God concerning salvation. Instead they rationalize it away as if that gives them a pass at the judgment. But it doesn’t.

Every rationalization always comes back to the same thing, they don’t have to do anything. Jesus Himself said every person that actually enters the kingdom of God will have to be as a little child here on earth. Humble, meek, forgiving, full of truth, repentant... there’s no getting around that for any human being. But the fake believers say all you have to do is believe. Even though Jesus said otherwise... it doesn’t matter to them.

John says there are true Moses like prophets in the last days. Does it matter to the fake believers that they don’t actually know any? Nope. Does it matter that God hasn’t spoken to any of their leaders in 2000 years? Nope. Nothing will change their minds until Christ Himself closes the door on them at the judgement. Jesus said their reaction to being finally made aware of the truth will be “weeping” and “gnashing of teeth”.

And it’s all unfolding the way Jesus and the prophets said it would.

“And He said that the real believers would be few in number”
He said that “few there be that find that straight and narrow way that leads to life everlasting”...this was prior to his crucifixion. As Revelation points to “multitudes from every tribe and nation being saved out of the Tribulation” that term “few” may be somewhat relative to how we understand numbers... Certainly billions may never be saved but many hundreds of millions(few compared to Billions) certainly shall be! What surprises will surface at the judgment? Certainly most won’t have their names in the book of Life after the 1000 year reign...but a few just might!
