John,
Thank you for sending the link to “4th Century Christianity”. The history of Christianity is astonishing.
After hearing tonight the thoughts Jesus has given you recently about churches, Constantine and Christianity, and then to read what Paul saw and wrote in 2Corinthians 11 about another Jesus, another spirit, another gospel, the Truth shines even brighter. And in 2Thessalonians 2 Paul said the mystery of iniquity was already at work in his day and time. What a warning from Jesus through him to the body! God does not want his children to be ignorant or deceived. His love for us came alive even more as I read these scriptures tonight.
Jesus has put it in our hearts by way of his Spirit to love of the Truth if we will stay full of his Spirit. As we love it, it is saving us. He said it would. It is so precious. I feel overwhelmed with gratefulness to Jesus.
Bess
