EXAMPLES  AND  WARNINGS  AGAINST  SHARING  IN
THE WORK OF DECEIVERS WHO ARE ANTICHRISTS
.

"So now I request… not a new commandment, but one which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. And this is what love means, that we go on walking according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you people have heard from the beginning, that you should go on walking in it. For many deceivers have gone forth into the world, persons not confessing Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist… Every one that pushes ahead and does not remain in the teaching of The Christ does not have God… If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, never receive him into your homes or say a greeting to him. For he that says a greeting to   him   is a sharer in his wicked works." *  (From 2 John V.5 11).

Love:
The first consideration.

The second consideration.

Are you a sharer in the
wicked works of others?

The apostle John by inspiration from God tells us what love means, and how the antichrist may be identified. He warns true followers of The Christ not to say a greeting to those who do not remain in the teachings of Christ. And yet, not one religion on earth remains in the teachings of The Christ. They all have "friendship with the world" and disobey many of the commands from our Lord Jesus Christ.  (James 4:4).
 

"And if you love those loving you, of what credit is it to you? For even the sinners love those loving them. And if you do good to those doing good to you, really of what credit is it to you? Even the sinners do the same."  (Luke 6:32,33).
 

Not in this way:
(Loving friends,
relatives and oneself only).

"Of what benefit is it, my brothers, if a certain one says he has faith but he does not have works? That faith cannot save him, can it? If a brother or a sister is in a naked state and lacking the food sufficient for the day, yet a certain one of you says to them: "Go in peace, keep warm and well fed," but you do not give them the necessities for their body, of what benefit is it?... Show me your faith apart from your works, and I shall show you my faith by my works."  (From James 2:14-20).

Hypocrite (useless 'faith'').

..
Works of faith are by accurate
knowledge of the One True God.

"Adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship with the world is enmity* with God? Whoever, therefore, wants to be a friend of the world is constituting himself an enemy of God."  (From James 4:1-4).
 

The world: Christendom, politicians,
unbelievers, the will of the nations.

"As in all the congregations of the holy ones, let the women keep silent in the congregations, for it is not permitted for them to speak, but let them be in subjection, even as the Law says… for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in a congregation… If anyone thinks he is a prophet or gifted with the Spirit #, let him acknowledge the things I am writing to you, because they are the Lord's commandment. But if anyone is ignorant, he continues ignorant." (From 1 Cor 14:33-38)
(See 1 Tim 2:1-14).

Are you acknowledging?

"These things I write you about those who are trying to mislead you. And as for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to be teaching you; but, as the anointing from him is teaching you about all things, and is true and is no lie, and just as it has taught you, remain in union with him."  (From 1 John 2:26-29).

ANTI:  Opposite, opposed to, against, etc.
CHRIST:

Those pushing ahead of Christ's
teachings and fabricating lies.
