1. If Christians were in power the world would be better. Actually, Democrat Jimmy Carter and Republican Ronald Reagan were neither better nor worse than other Presidents of the USA. Protestant and Catholic rulers made Europe a more oppressive place than modern, secular, democratic Europe.
2. If we don't do something, Antichrist will rise and persecute Christians. Actually, prophecies do not indicate that Christians can stop it but only that Christ's return will save us out of it.
3. Christians behave better and are wealthier than their non-Christian neighbors. Actually, Paul described Christians as the weak of the world, not worldly wise. The difference is that they are saved.
4. Modern Christianity is an exact copy of the ancient way. Modern Christianity is very different than that described by Christ and experienced by the ancient Church, with a major exception: Faith in Christ is still saving faith and that is the most important thing.
