Matthew 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying , I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Frankly, this Scripture has always bugged me. There aren't fake Jesus' coming out of the woodwork; you hear of crackpot cult leaders but "many"? Being a fake Jesus's would be pretty hard to pull off, right? What if that is not what we should be looking for? What if these men Jesus was referring to did not really pretend to be Him? What if they claimed that they had magic cave revelations like Mohammed, Joseph Smith, and Ignatius Loyola (founder of the Jesuits)? What if they claimed by church authority to BE Jesus, would that fulfill this prophecy? If taken in order this is the first one to be fulfilled, thus it is an ancient prophecy and an ancient fulfillment so we have to stop applying our 21st Century mind set to it.
The fact is, beginning with the official establishment of the Roman Catholic church in the 3rd Century, the evil reign of terror began. To see how the Apostolic Church was highjacked, watch this video from the Fuel Project.
I highly recommend the entire series, "Know Your Enemy", they start in the Garden of Eden and weave history through the lens of God's divine plan and Satan's age old desire to thwart it.
Thus, it is from a long term perspective that we see "False Teachers" have taken over the world. Islam, Mormons, Catholics, Buddhist, Hindus - all works based religions fall into this category. We don't have to go looking for a long haired crazy man in the Montana Mountains claiming to be Christ, we just need to drive down the streets of every city in the world to find temples set up to false prophets.
