Whether it happens through the world, Satan or even our own human nature, the church is constantly being worn down. We should expect this, but we should not accept it. Christians cannot allow our love for Christ to be overthrown.

The spirit of the Antichrist is both coming and already in the world.

There are three main avenues that the antichrist spirit uses to wear down followers of Christ: the world, our own flesh, and Satan.

Our fast-paced culture of technology can exhaust us as we try to keep up with everything.
