The Lord Jesus warned us of different types of religious deception. He stated that some would come from FALSE prophets and FALSE Christs! Vissarion, the Siberian so-called “voice of God,” is a negative fulfillment of such Bible prophecy claiming a divine connection to God!
At that time if anyone says to you, “Look, here is the Christ!” or, “There he is!” do not believe it. For FALSE CHRISTS and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect–if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time. So if anyone tells you, “There he is, out in the desert,” DO NOT GO OUT; or, “Here he is, in the inner rooms,” do not believe it. For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. (Mat 24:23-27)
Vissarion (a former patrol officer) and his 5,000 followers call themselves The Church of the Last Testament. Their community resides in the Russian Taiga forest, 100 miles away from the nearest town. Vissarion falsely claims to be the reincarnation of Jesus and to be speaking the word of God. He also claims he was sent by God to save people! Among other things, Vissarion teaches that suicide (self murder) is okay! His followers (all vegans) call him “the teacher,” which contradicts another scripture:
But you are not to be called “Rabbi,” for you have only one Master and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth “father,” for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called “teacher,” for you have one Teacher, the Christ. (Mat 23:8-10)
His teachings contain elements of the Russian Orthodox Church with Buddhism, but he also wants to unite all faiths. Vissarion who also considers Mary, the mother of Jesus, his own mother looks gentle and harmless, but he is a DEADLY spiritual viper, as he is leading others to hell with himself:
If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit. (Mat 15:14)
Vissarion — Just Another DANGEROUS Counterfeit
There is no need for Vissarion or other imposters like him. Jesus of Nazareth, the real Savior of mankind (Acts 4:12; John 14:6; 1 Tim. 2:5; etc.) and last Adam (1 Cor. 15:45), said “it is finished” from the cross (John 19:30) meaning our redemption is paid in full by himself and with Jesus’ own blood (Acts 20:28) (with no help from Mary).
Glaring Errors In The Church Of The Last Testament
- There is NO reincarnation
- Suicide is a form of murder
- Jesus ate fish (Lk. 24:42) and a vegan life is NOT a religious demand (Mark 7:19).
