THE APOSTLES DOCTRINE vs THE ANTICHRIST SPIRIT

We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. — 1 John 4

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because MANY FALSE PROPHETS are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. THEY are of the world: THEREFORE SPEAK THEY of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: HE THAT KNOWETH GOD HEARETH US; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the SPIRIT OF TRUTH, and the SPIRIT OF ERROR. — 1 John 4:1-6 KJV

LONG PRAYERS

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence MAKE LONG PRAYER: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. — Matthew 23:14 KJV

Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; Which devour widows’ houses, and for a shew MAKE LONG PRAYERS: the same shall receive greater damnation. — Luke 20:46-47 KJV

And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed [it], and called on the name of Baal 
FROM MORNING EVEN UNTIL NOON,
saying, O Baal, hear us. But [there was] no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made. — 1 Kings 18:26 KJV

Pray without ceasing. - 1 Thessalonians 5:17 KJV

LOUD ANIMATED PRAYERS

And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, CRY ALOUD: for he [is] a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, [or] peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. — 1 Kings 18:27 KJV

And THEY CRIED ALOUD, AND cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them. — 1 Kings 18:28 KJV

PUBLIC

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. – Matthew 6:5 KJV

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. – Matthew 6:6 KJV

REPETITION

But when ye pray, use not VAIN REPETITIONS, AS THE HEATHEN [do]: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. — Matthew 6:7 KJV

THEY PROFESS that they know God; but IN WORKS they DENY [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. — Titus 1:16 KJV

For there are MANY UNRULY and VAIN TALKERS and DECEIVERS, specially they of the circumcision: Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, FOR FILTHY LUCRE'S SAKE. — Titus 1:10-11 KJV

And take the helmet of salvation, and
the SWORD of the SPIRIT,
which is
the WORD OF GOD:

Ephesians 6
