Conversion of the Christian Faith

The definition of faith
The definition of faith is the confidence we have in what we believe or hope without seeing it. Every religion, idea or view is based on its own particular faith, which its followers strive to spread or impose as "correct." This struggle creates rival camps in every form of faith, and discrimination of believers and unbelievers.
According to the poet Ezra Pound, "Belief is a cramp, a paralysis, an atrophy of the mind in certain positions."
"Faith" is strongly exercised in the field of religions and is shaped according to the teaching and dynamics of each founder of a religion and its priesthood.
In the "Church of the Living God" acquired by God with His own blood, Christ and His Apostles' teaching through the Holy Spirit are the foundation of faith.
1Cor. 3:11 “For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
After the successful completion of the apostolic work and for two thousand (2,000) years now, politicians, religious people, philosophers, ambitious people, God-sent people (as they claim), conquerors, liberators / saviors, adventurers, usurpers, narcissists, pseudo-teachers (false teachers), false-prophets, and others who desire power or wealth have established and are establishing churches, mixing the apostolic Faith which "was once delivered unto the saints" with their own secular, national, traditional, family or other religious beliefs and philosophical worldviews, deceiving themselves and their followers, invoking the timeless "slogan" that they do God's work for the salvation of mankind.
According to Ezra Pound, having spiritual paralysis and atrophy of mind in what they support and always being helped by pseudo-prophets (false prophets), they distort the Scriptures and come up with phobic sermons about the end of the perceptible world (but without justifying the reason for its creation), about eternal torment of the immortal "unbelievers" by the "good" Creator, and other ridiculous things, which they perform by shouting and waving their arms and legs or their bodies, as modern theurgists, trying to teach the spiritual things, which they do not possess, with the help of flesh.
The modern multicolored "Christian faith" continues to present the lies and distortions with which the adversaries of truth clothed it -a truth handed down once by the Holy Spirit to the eyewitnesses and servants of the divine Word- and thus, it is being transformed into "Christian unbelief."
Some examples of Cristian faith conversion
"God is ONE" became "God is TRIAD" (=a set of “three” same things), according to the Ancient Religion.
"The Word BECAME flesh" became "the incarnate Word" according to Mythology.
"Jesus Christ is the Son of God" became he who "came down from heaven and was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary" (=a demigod, according to Ancient Religion of Uranus and Gaia, but with three participants; the one who came down, the Holy Spirit and the earthly Mary). (See the Nicene Creed)
"Christ, the Second man, is the image of the invisible God" became "Christ is the image of the earthly First man."
"The very end of the Age (Aion) of the OT, which was the ministry of Death, carved in letters on stone”, became "the end of the natural World."
"The soul that sinneth, it shall DIE," became "the soul is immortal and will live either in bliss or in suffering."
The fact that "God is the only one who has immortality" and gives it to those who receive Christ, the Life, became "Oh immortal, mortal earthly man, where will you spend eternity?"
The fact that "Death is an enemy of man," according to biblical anthropology, became "Death is a friend of man," according to Platonic anthropology.
Over the last two thousand years, the modern generation of the Apostles ("Verily I say unto you, This generation [the modern generation of the Apostles] shall not pass, TILL ALL THESE THINGS BE FULFILLED.") has become the generation of the preachers’ liking and will continue indefinitely.
"Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that Antichrist shall come" that John said to his Judeo-Christian contemporaries, became "children, it will be many centuries before the Antichrist comes."
"Antichrists went out from us" became "the Church prevents the Antichrist from being revealed."
The historical Antichrist, who acted in Judea in the first century with signs and lying wonders among the rejected Jews and through the earthly Temple of the OT types, became the world leader that will come after thousands of years, when the Time will end, the personification of "Evil."
"All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth" became an anticipation for a rematch between Christ and the Devil.
"But this I say, brethren, the time is short" that Paul wrote to his contemporaries became "the time is long, twenty centuries and more."
"For the time is at hand" that was said to the Church in the first century, became "for the time is far away."
"Behold, I come quickly" became "Behold, I will come slowly, after many thousands years to put an End and burn this world."
The Revelation that was sent to the servants of God, contemporaries of John, to show them what was to happen quickly in their generation, became a Revelation to all mankind about what will happen after thousands of years when the end of Time comes.
"Christ is the end of the Law" became "the Law is the end of Christ," since the "God-enlightened workers of the Gospel" are convinced that God will prove His transgression and will rebuild what He destroyed, will restore the types and the useless rituals of the Law and will save -contrary to His declarations- all "biological" Israel, although there are no longer any genealogies. And much more.
Conclusion
Mat. 15:13-14 “But he (Jesus) answered and said, Every plant which my heavenly Father planted not, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: they are blind guides. And if the blind guide the blind, both shall fall into a pit.”
2 Cor. 13:5 "Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you fail to meet the test!"
Have Christ the everlasting Life
