Pastor Chris guides us this week in understanding what is fake Christianity and what is real. The Apostle John, who was a New Testament prophet, like the prophets of old, warns us that we are in the \\u2018last hour\\u2019 of the Kingdom of God \\u2013 the time between Jesus\\u2019 ascension and his coming return. During this \\u2018hour\\u2019, many proclaim to be Christians, but they intend to deceive. These are the \\u2018antichrists\\u2019 he writes about (different from \\u2018The Antichrist\\u2019 or \\u2018false prophet\\u2019 in the book of Revelation). They are influencers who follow a \\u2018counterfeit christ.\\u2019

Chris starts with a story about a famous boxer called Kid McCoy from the 1890s who had to differentiate himself from impostors and impersonators. Norman Selby (though not a role-model) became known as \\u2018The Real McCoy.\\u2019 He was different from the imitations.
