Lethargy, doctrinal indifference, gross ignorance of the Word of God, constitute the first signs of the false spirit creeping into the church. Next, if we are no longer concerned about the Bible, the arch enemy lays his attack upon the Word of God itself. Of course, if he is to destroy the church, he knows all too well that he has to destroy the principle truth that the Bible is the infallible Word of God. When he has thoroughly poisoned the church with this lie, then the conclusion inevitably follows, the lie is sown and no one can keep it out. Soon the very fundamental truths of the Word of God are being denied.
Creation is replaced by evolution.
The miracles are storied that excite the imagination of children. It is important that we try the spirits. There is only one true spirit, that is the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ poured out upon the church on Pentecost. The Spirit of truth that dwells in the church maintains the gospel of truth. Principally that Gospel centers in Jesus Christ.
