No, I am referring to certain unbelieving people not an age.

However we do read in Revelation that at the point when the Dragon is revealed, people do not repent
And they ALL worship the Dragon.
Speaks to me God is not in a mood for grace with them only their certain destruction, which Rev 14 makes clear.
Rev 13
The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to [c]continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every [d]tribe, tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.


The above also makes clear that when Christ comes back, there will be NO survivors who are not believers in Christ. There is this false teaching strongly believed by some, that at the return of Christ, He does not kill all unbelieving people. BUT all the unbelieving people at that time are all Dragon worshippers. So we know from Rev 14, what the angel warns is they will all be killed.

Some of the proponents of that false teaching, I think are under a strong delusion sent by God because they refuse to love the truth, so they believe the lie. And they are unreasoning, full of powerful emotions and get angry. You can show them scripture after scripture in the New Testament of what will happen and they refuse to believe what Jesus and His apostles say.

They also believe when Christ returns, there will be renewed Judaism, with temple worship and animal sacrifices for sins. They don't just believe one thing, but add error to error. They do not believe Paul when he says there will be a sudden destruction of unbelievers, or Peter saying the FIRST earth will burn and dissolve. If the earth does that, how can there be any unsaved unbelievers left alive after the return of Christ?
Thanks for the reply!
Yes, lie upon lie. It all becomes an onion peel then and, sincere seekers can fall into so many traps of the devil.
We already have most of the world in darkness and loving it.
Peace!

Perilous Times and Perilous Men​

1 But know this, that in the last days [a]perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, [b]unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; 9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

'having a form of godliness' can mean like wolves among the sheep, outwardly appear 'Christian', inwardly are ravening wolves.
Their purpose is to tear up, maul, and scatter the sheep.

Acts 20
25 “And indeed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more. 26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent[e] of the blood of all men. 27 For I have not [f]shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God. 28 Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church [g]of God which He purchased with His own blood. 29 For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking [h]perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves. 31 Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

sincere seekers can fall into the snare of satan .
But unto the sheep who sincerly seek CHRIST , i tell us all they will not .
Many are seeking sister .
But many deep down are seeking a god that pleases what it is they did desire to beleive . and SIN is in it .
SIN is in it .
People can appear very sincere , and often are , but what is it they truly desire to seek out
it is a god that will allow them to hold on to something that is contrary to the ONE TRUE GOD .
This is one hundred percent fact .

According to Webster, a strong delusion is defined as a fixed belief that is not amenable to change despite conflicting evidence. It implies an inability to distinguish between what is real and what is only perceived as real, often resulting from a disordered state of mind.

That's pretty much it!

Shoot howdy! We see that everyday right here.

The big "lie"--the core and the cause of the "strong delusion" prophesied, was (and still is believed), is that Christ would return someday in the distant future rather than "must shortly take place"..."soon" after He said it. Not seeing Jesus return by "observation", "natural" men of little faith imagined their own false doctrine and began teaching it within the Church, and many have believed it.

This same concept of God sending strong delusions is also specified in Isaiah 66 for the wicked.
It is not a new truth first revealed in the New Testament. It has been in effect from ancient times.

Those who are the ungodly have chosen their own ways and they delight in what God says are abominations.
Spoken by the Lord God in v3 and v4


Thus says the Lord:

“Heaven is My throne,
And earth is My footstool.
Where is the house that you will build Me?
And where is the place of My rest?
2 For all those things My hand has made,
And all those things exist,”
Says the Lord.
“But on this one will I look:
On him who is poor and of a contrite spirit,
And who trembles at My word.

3 “He who kills a bull is as if he slays a man;
He who sacrifices a lamb, as if he breaks a dog’s neck;
He who offers a grain offering, as if he offers swine’s blood;
He who burns incense, as if he blesses an idol.
Just as they have chosen their own ways,
And their soul delights in their abominations,

4 So will I choose their delusions,
And bring their fears on them;
Because, when I called, no one answered,
When I spoke they did not hear;
But they did evil before My eyes,
And chose that in which I do not delight.”

From the New Testament, before the coming of the Lord.

1 Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of [a]Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of [b]sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits [c]as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

Of some interest is comparing the context from Isaiah 66. God is very displeased with these people who are sacrificing animals, so their life style and worship is corrupt. They are doing life their way's and not God's way.

The NT verses, speak of a false worship of a false god too. At the time of the end, there may be a false temple of god built and animal sacrifices. It will be called the temple of God, just as the book of Acts still called the Jewish Temple of God, the temple, even though God does not dwell in temples made with hands, just Isaiah 66 states

Thus says the Lord:

“Heaven is My throne,
And earth is My footstool.
Where is the house that you will build Me?
And where is the place of My rest?
2 For all those things My hand has made,
And all those things exist,”

Says the Lord.

To me this shows a definitive link between these chapters.
There are 'Christians' today who desire to see a temple of God built, and say it will happen with animal sacrifices for sins again. They call this Ezekiel's temple. Have you heard of 'Red Heifers' You can read of these things from various 'Chistian' web sites.

Example about the third temple

And they are very excited and glad thinking this is of God, claiming Christ will return to rule on an earthly throne of David and authorize renewed animal sacrifices to God in a rebuilt Ezekiel's temple by a Jewish priesthood.

And that believers with Christ will rule with heavy hands (that rod of Iron) over rebellious unsaved nations with them like avenging angels.

If you see these things begin to happen, then know that Christ has not yet returned but will be very soon, and they have all been deceived into worshipping a false Christ.

The real Christ warns us not to go after the false christ, who will claim he is god, whom Christ says is coming.

Luke 17

20 Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with observation; 21 nor will they say, [f]‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, the kingdom of God is [g]within you.”

22 Then He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
23 And they will say to you, [h]‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them. 24 For as the lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven shines to the other part under heaven, so also the Son of Man will be in His day.

25 But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:

27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

31 “In that day, he who is on the housetop, and his [i]goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not turn back. 32 Remember Lot’s wife. 33 Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it. 34 I tell you, in that night there will be two [j]men in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left. 36 [k]Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.”

37 And they answered and said to Him, “Where, Lord?”

So He said to them, “Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together.”

The body is eaten by the birds, this is in Revelation called the supper of the Great God.

The ones taken are taken to be destroyed.
The same verse in Matthew 24, calls them CARCASS'

Matthew 24
23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.

26 “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. 27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28 For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Christ returns, the slain of the Lord shall be many.
He will slay all those who do not want Him to reign over them, but they do want a false satanic Christ to reign over them,

Luke 19

The Parable of the Minas​

11 Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately. 12 Therefore He said: “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. 13 So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten [e]minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come.’ 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We will not have this man to reign over us.’

15 “And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned ten minas.’ 17 And he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.’ 18 And the second came, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned five minas.’ 19 Likewise he said to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’

20 “Then another came, saying, ‘Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a handkerchief. 21 For I feared you, because you are [f]an austere man. You collect what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.’ 22 And he said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was an austere man, collecting what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow. 23 Why then did you not put my money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with interest?’

24 “And he said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.’ 25 (But they said to him, ‘Master, he has ten minas.’) 26 ‘For I say to you, that to everyone who has will be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 27 But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.’ ”

The Jews if they get their 3rd temple will be worshipping the false Christ.
The delusion will be strong enough that the Dragon speaking against God in heaven will not phase them at all.
Well, people blaspheme God in heaven today also, Paul was a blasphemer, dangerous, and an insolent man before his conversion.

insolent
ˈin(t)-s(ə-)lənt
adjective
  1. insultingly contemptuous in speech or conduct : overbearing
  2. exhibiting boldness or effrontery : impudent

His working put many believers to death, but God showed mercy to Paul and saved him.

Revelation 13
5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to [c]continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every [d]tribe, tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Jews are taught the Messiah will sacrifice the red heifer himself.


To meet the requirements of the Old Testament law, a red heifer was needed to help accomplish the purification of the Israelites from uncleanness—specifically, the ashes of a red heifer were needed (see Numbers 19). Because red heifer ashes were necessary for the purification rites held at the temple, many have regarded the appearance of a red heifer today as heralding the construction of the third temple and the return of Christ.

According to rabbinical tradition, there have been nine red heifers sacrificed since Moses’ time. Since the destruction of the second temple, no red heifers have been slaughtered. The rabbi Maimonides (1135—1204) taught that the tenth red heifer would be sacrificed by the Messiah Himself (Parah Adumah, ch. 3, § 4).

The Temple Institute, a group advocating the construction of a third temple, reports that five flawless red heifers from Texas arrived in Israel on September 15, 2022 (The Temple Institute of Jerusalem - Learn About the Temple Institute, accessed 9/22/22). Many people view this event as a fulfilment of prophecy, since the acquisition of a red heifer is a major step forward in plans for a new temple.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes the appearance of these things would by themselves point to the return of Christ shortly afterwards.
But some will believe such a 'man of sin', the antichrist is the true Christ.
Jesus warns us not to be fooled. The ones deceived will be under a strong delusion and many will be deceived, and they will be dangerous.

Matthew 24
3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

1 But know this, that in the last days [a]perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, [b]unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; 9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

'having a form of godliness' can mean like wolves among the sheep, outwardly appear 'Christian', inwardly are ravening wolves.
Their purpose is to tear up, maul, and scatter the sheep.

Acts 20
25 “And indeed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more. 26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent[e] of the blood of all men. 27 For I have not [f]shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God. 28 Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church [g]of God which He purchased with His own blood. 29 For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking [h]perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves. 31 Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.
2 Tim. 3 hit hard in the early 90's as, I could already see all of those things mentioned. These are some verses I have used when speaking to un-believers. It had to give them food for thought, as they didn't have a lot to say to that, among other scriptures, but I will never know.

In Christ always!

AND that time is now growing more and more . And people t hought SATAN could not say GOD IS LOVE
WELL BOY WERE THEY WRONG

2 Tim. 3 hit hard in the early 90's as, I could already see all of those things mentioned. These are some verses I have used when speaking to un-believers. It had to give them food for thought, as they didn't have a lot to say to that, among other scriptures, but I will never know.

In Christ always!
Always remember i desired only good for the people

According To Webster, What Is A Strong Delusion?​

When those who are dead and patently decaying are deemed alive and either enjoying bliss like a continual orgasm or endlessly jumping from one red hot plate to the other cursing the God who maintains it.

Thanks for the reply!
Yes, lie upon lie. It all becomes an onion peel then and, sincere seekers can fall into so many traps of the devil.
We already have most of the world in darkness and loving it.
Peace!
Another day and another pre-fib rapture that is suppose to take place this week
