Pseudo Christs and Pseudo Prophets

English “false Christs” were translated from Greek noun 5580 pseudochristos from a compound of Greek adjective 5571 pseudes and Greek adjective 5547 Christos correctly translated 569 times into English “Christ”.  While we are here we should note that Greek adjective 5547 Christos is from Greek verb 5548 chrio meaning to anoint and Greek noun 5545 chrisma being the “unction” of 1John 2:20 and “anointing” of 1John 2:27 . God’s “chosen” “election” are also “anointed” as documented in 2Corinthians 1:21. Greek adjective 5547 Christos describes and qualifies both Jesus Christ “his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren” and Jesus Christ’s “many brethren” are the “election” God said “I have reserved to myself“shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years”

English “False prophets” were translated from Greek noun 5578 pseudoprophetes from a compound of Greek adjective 5571 pseudes and Greek noun 4396 prophetes which was 149 times translated into singular and plural “prophets”.       

Greek adjective 5571 pseudes was translated into English “liars” in “I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars”. Many human beings struggle with the book of Revelation because they don’t recognize that the apostle John wrote the book in his past, present and future tenses and don’t understand if John is in his own past, present or future which is further complicated by the fact that John is sometimes in our future as documented in Revelation 1:9-11 where John was physically imprisoned “in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ” while John was simultaneously “in the Spirit on the Lord’s day” which is still in our future “Lord’s day” which is aforementioned “thousand years”. If you are not yet confused: Jesus and the seven angels of “the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea”. Jesus, the seven angels and John “are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels” at the same time “in the Spirit on the Lord’s day”. Of the seven churches Jesus only approves of the doctrine of the churches of “Smyrna” and “Philadelphia”.

Let’s get back to Greek adjective 5571 pseudes. John who was physically imprisoned “in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ” while John was simultaneously “in the Spirit on the Lord’s day” Jesus said to John  “Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks” “I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars”. I am copying and pasting and you are reading what John physically wrote two thousand years ago subsequent to what Jesus told John spiritually in our future.
