Who is Jose Luis De Jesus Miranda? I just noticed this guy on Fox News. Apparently he has grown quite a following already. I have been looking and this guy is quite the character.
Fox News keeps showing images and video of this guy and his followers. He claims he in the Messiah, the new Christ and at the same time the Anti-Christ. (I’m sorry I thought one could not be the other.) His message is there is no hell to be afraid of, satan was destroyed 2000 years ago, and we cannot sin as we are above that due to God’s Grace, so do what makes you feel good. Reminds me of Pinocchio. Gamble, Smoke, do anything you want. Are we going to have a sudden increase in the donkey population?
Interestingly enough it looks like he is encouraging his church members to get tattoos of 666 or sss. He says the mark of the beast is something to laugh at and that it means nothing. He shows his own tattoos and mocks those that harbor bad feelings towards them. Can it really be that easy to get people marked? If this is the real thing, can it really be that obvious?
I don’t know much about the guy, but thought I would pose the question where it might get some attention and others can send me info. I have heard many claims about the anti-Christ. I have heard of several people that are supposedly here today. I do not believe this guy is the real thing, I don’t think he is much of a threat, but he does seem to have a rather large following that is growing rapidly.
My big question is, what do I need to know about this Jose Luis De Jesus Miranda? Does he pose a threat? Is there anything I need to do? Should I just forget about him altogether and ignore anything I see about him?
Please send me info, and links. I want to learn more so I can defend myself and family against it if need be.

Dear isthistheendoftime,
The Lord has warned us of false prophets. If what is preached is inconsistent with the gospels, can it be truth?
Jesus told us He did not come into the world to change the law, but to fulfill it. Consider the following scripture:
Mathew 5: 17-19
""Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever obeys and teaches these commandments will be called greatest in the kingdom of heaven."
So, what this person presents is not consistent with what our Lord has told us. All of these preachers of faith that are contrary to the gospels can only be false. Study the word and you will know the truth.
Today, this man is a snare for a few. He is far away and is of little threat to your family, yet, tomorrow, he may be at your front door. Your best defense is to live within a strong faith community. Study the word of the Lord, pray for wisdom and understanding of the word. Through the grace of God, He will help you see the light and recognize deceit. Through your prayer, He will send his angels to protect you and your family.
And if, in the tribulations of the world, you are faced with persecutions for your faith, keep in mind the following scripture:
1 Peter 3: 8-18
"Finally, all of you, be of one mind, sympathetic, loving toward one another, compassionate, humble. Do not return evil for evil, or insult for insult; but, on the contrary, a blessing, because to this you were called, that you might inherit a blessing. For: "Whoever would love life and see good days must keep the tongue from evil and the lips from speaking deceit, must turn from evil and do good, seek peace and follow after it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears turned to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against evildoers."
Now who is going to harm you if you are enthusiastic for what is good? But even if you should suffer because of righteousness, blessed are you. Do not be afraid or terrified with fear of them, but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope, but do it with gentleness and reverence, keeping your conscience clear, so that, when you are maligned, those who defame your good conduct in Christ may themselves be put to shame. For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that be the will of God, than for doing evil. For Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the sake of the unrighteous, that he might lead you to God."
May God forever bless and protect you and your family.
Nam Eno
