THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS

--Rom. 3:11

Immediately I saw a white horse appear, and its rider was holding a bow ['toxon' in Greek--the Greek words 'ouranio toxon' & 'iris' mean 'bow' or 'rainbow,' meaning the 'covenant']; he was given a victor's crown and he went away, to go from victory to victory."

--Revelation 6:2, New Jerusalem Bible

"According to Photius [a 9th century Byzantine Patriarch], Clement of Alexandria held at least a quasi-docetic belief regarding the nature of Christ, namely that the Word/Logos did not became flesh, but only ‘appeared to be in flesh,’ an interpretation which directly denied the reality of the incarnation."

--(Clement of Alexandria on Trial: The Evidence of "Heresy" from Photius' Bibliotheca. Ashwin-Siejkowski 95).

Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. … And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He [Christ] who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one [the Antichrist] will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders."

--2 Thess. 2:1-9, New King James

"In deference to Biblical usage, we are not denying John’s proclamation of 'Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh' (2 John 1:7), but rather qualifying it in terms of its chronological relevance. In other words, we deny the timing of this event; not the event itself!"

Eli of Kittim

Those who guide this people are leading them astray; and those who are guided by them are brought to confusion." --(Isaiah 9:16). "Surely our fathers have inherited lies." --(Jeremiah 16:19). "Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

(Matthew 15:14).
