I understand your concerns - but don't you think that Satan has a hold on all our countries- we are in a spiritual battle - it's not just happened in the last 100 Yeats, it's been like it since the beginning of time - Satan uses different people in each era, each of us need to pray and seek God with regards to what he wants each of us to do - and care about the whole of creation. God is still in control - Satan thinks he is, so do others.
Who are you trusting in ?
We already know things are going to get worse, we have been alerted to that. Your posts just resound fear and panic - do you have peace , God peace or is fear knocking at your door - it's much harder when the battle starts showing itself in your own environments - and we are still more fortunate than others who have had to already lay their lives down in the battle.
Yes - we're told that the whole world lieth in the lap of the wicked one - that's a good point. But many believers can see how our entire culture is poisoned now with evil. I've seen a difference just in my lifetime - that's why so many believe we're in the end times. But we're warned to watch, not sit back and "just trust the Lord":
Matthew 24:42-51 - Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
I think you're right, that we should pray and ask God what He wants us to do. I feel that God wants me to share what I've learned - others may feel to do something else but we're all told to evangelize. God is stronger than Satan but we still have
our work to do. I have a friend who believes that God is going to do it all so she will never contact legislators or evangelize or do anything for the furtherance of the gospel or protection of children being exposed to wrong things in school etc. Oh yes - she's very at peace and trusting in the Lord because she's leaving all the laboring for the Kingdom to people like me. What are we called to do?
I asked the pastor at our bible study about it and he scoffed and said "that's a cop out." I believe as the pastor does - that we have a work to do. What concerns me is that some Christians are passive and sit back thinking God is going to do it all. I believe that is a deception of our ageI and that we are co-laborers with God. I wouldn't call my posts fear and panic - they are more of a warning to look beyond what is being told to us for the clues that we're being lied to on a massive scale. It's almost hard to believe that leaders at the apex of power in our respective country are owned by the evil one and it gets a little shocking when one's eyes are opened to it - and I'm still in the shock stage. But I believe that I'm exercising my gift of discernment for the good of the body when I share; however, I never ask others to follow but to be a Berean and look for the truth themselves. We all know that Scripture tells us that things will grow worse but what are we to do? Are we
really alert to the deception being perpetrated? If Paul - an apostle - was moved to weeping over the "enemies of the cross of Christ" are we to have as much emotion and duty to warn as Paul did?
2 Timothy 3:13 - But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
This verse implies that we have a work to do:
Matthew 7:21-23 - Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
We're warned to watch, and also to watch for seducing spirits:
1 Timothy 4:1 - Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Luke 21:36 - Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Revelation 3:3 - Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Philippians 3:18-19 - (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, [that they are] the enemies of the cross of Christ:
I see so many Christians being deceived and not using discernment as Pearl said. If we see deception I believe that God wants us to alert our fellow believers as this writer warns:
~ The "we don't have to war" doctrine rising in this hour is dangerous at best. Indeed, I believe it's one of the devil's greatest deceptions to convince you to lay your weapons down. Make no mistake, there is no ceasefire in the spirit. You cannot lay your weapons down and think for a moment the devil will not see it as an opportune time to go in for the kill. ~

What is also concerning are the pastors in megachurches who are false prophets and who are leading the flock astray. The illuminati
are highly intelligent; they get their power and insight from the evil one. They have hijacked education, the banks, the media, the military, political office, and religion.
There are dual purposes for my posting: to warn others, and to study the bible because when I look verses up it is a way for me to learn. Also, I have an insatiable curiosity and I love to research and put clues together. Also, when one reads voraciously and writes it helps to hone one's writing skills. It also sparks creativity and ideas for a writing project I'm working on.
Something else I just learned is that
the triangle illuminati sign that May, Merkel, Trump, Blair etc. all make is a focal point for the entry of demons Every time they flash the triangle they're providing an entry point for demons.
I REPEAT: THESE WORLD LEADERS ARE INVOKING DEMONS WHEN THEY FLASH THE TRIANGLE OF SATAN. THIS IS A DEMONIC HAND SIGN THAT SERVES AS AN ENTRY POINT FOR DEMONS:
BODY LANGUAGE EXPERTS SAY THAT TRUMP OFTEN FLASHES "TRIANGLE OF SATAN" HAND GESTURE:
Body Language Experts Say Trump Often Flashes “Triangle of Satan” Hand Gesture
Why is Merkel flashing the triangle of Satan just like Hitler?
Macron:
Why is Trump flashing the triangle of Satan just like Hitler did?
