Apparently not. Things are looking a whole lot like the time of Jesus' first coming, when the Priests, Leaders, and Pharisees thought they were beyond reproach. And when Jesus went about correcting them, the established leaders rejected Him.

Then came the times of the church and of "the spirit of anti-Christ already at work" during those early days when Jesus had "somewhat against" 5 out of the 7 churches mentioned in Revelation; Peter foretold of "false teachers" bringing "destructive doctrines" into the church; and Paul foretold the believing of a "lie" causing "strong delusion" and great apostacy. And yet few if any seem to have taken it to heart--that corrections would need to come, or the church would be found apostate.

And worse, most seem determined to defend those foretold realities of false doctrines on a grand scale, to the death.

It is absolutely crazy that there is such a disregard for the warnings--when they too are written and true!

No doubt it hasn't occurred to you that you are in this category!

People, will and want to believe what and how they want to in the end ScottA. I believe Jesus came and got his bride, but many people just see me as crazy. That is okay though, Jesus was seen as a madman too. I'm thankful for what God has done through Yeshua, for the whole world. I had a lot of help learning the scriptures, one through a person who taught verse by verse, but also told the people listening to him never to believe him and to search the information out for themselves. Staying and sticking to "test all things and hold on to what is good." I stand by that notion. No one should ever believe me but seek out information concerning eschatology, but not only this, for people to read the bible and see what they see when they are reading it. In the end we can encourage people all day, to do these things, but it's totally dependant on them themselves. Thankful though, despite what people may believe, it doesn't make them saved or not saved. Yeshua is the one whom saves and brings newness of life, and if they can by the Spirit of Christ, love God, and love others. That to me, is what matters in the end, walking by the spirit and not so much our flesh. Though we fail in the flesh all the time, it's Yeshua and his righteousness that makes a person right with God. What they do with that information is up to them.

Matthew, you are a peacekeeper and it is much appreciated. Thank you!

However, I was addressing the current reality of history and the deep set rejection that has occurred for millennia, coming now to a place not unlike that of the rejection of Jesus in flesh and blood. Only now, and since His ascension, the rejection is in spirit--even the unforgiveable sin against the Holy Spirit whom Jesus has sent.

So, it is nice that you are a gentleman, but there are many who stand to suffer the things warned of that were not stated casually, but of a certainty.

I see what you are saying ScottA. That is totally out of my hands. All I can do is try to do my part while being here as we all can. There was a lot I had to deal with earlier after having my heart broken. It hurt a lot, but what can I do but try to approach the one who did with love at least in Christ, due to being a work situation. I do have something I want to mention though, Calvinism is one of the biggest growing theological standpoints which continues to be taught in colleges, even I have heard it is one of the fastest-growing religious movements still going on today. There are many things that continues to grow people away from the truth, and the only thing a person can do is stand with God at the end of life. At least those are just some of my thoughts I wanted to relay back to you. There also "Israel movements" and things of that nature. I don't think those things will ever end, and Jesus is coming back movements. It's a wild world we live in.

Is your point that you are offering to correct everybody?
I am a longtime presence here of open confession and testimony. Wherein I have made no secret of my calling, except to not specifically say what is true of me without qualification. I have however, openly and publicly given my qualifications in detail, the sum of more than a few books, even revealing my God given purpose witnessed of me in the biblical record.

So, yes, I have been offering and continue to offer correction, as it has been given to me to do so--by God, which is written. Of which many who apparently do not know how this sort of thing works, reject. But the real point is--that these times were foretold to be, and now are, times of great apostacy; and because there is a common core of accepted doctrine--most have believed what is not true, but a "lie."

I see you are not open to engage or interested in anything more than you think you know.
In that case I'll stay outside the door!

Sorry to disappoint you... by not praying to you if that's what you desire from others to be their god
and their teacher and consider those that don't snap to and accept all you say to be in the dark. walking_away.gif

and Paul foretold the believing of a "lie" causing "strong delusion" and great apostacy.
Scripturally, Paul mentions 'strong delusion' is sent by GOD during the reign of 'anti-Christ'.

Since the world loved and continue in 'darkness' and 'lies', rather than the 'Light' and 'truth'.

Things you mentioned likewise happened during the time of the Apostles' witnessing in the field and church.

They are false converts from the false church and authorities operating on their own accord.

Besides the Apostles and their established churches on the other hand.

According to them these authorities in the beginning were with them, but shortly decided to go ahead on their own. (1John2:18&19)

And since established churches on their own having gathered false converts, some ordained as 'evangelists' and 'missionaries' themselves.

They've visited the churches of the Apostles in their absence, even providing supporting letters from their elders, as ordained ministers.

In regards the Apostles in their 'epistles' cautioned their churches of them, as 'imposters' and 'counterfeits'.

Whom soon will be 'shipwrecked', and even though the 'anti-Christ' have not come, but the 'spirit of anti-Christ' is already present.

Even Paul proclaimed, that any one who preach another gospel from theirs, let him be 'accursed'.

This is merely am sharing what is given to me and scripturally ordained to be the 'truth', thank you.

Shalom in Jesus name

What do you think is THE lie?
It must be quiet some lie if it causes strong delusion.
Strong delusion! hmmmm, I can't think of a stronger term.....and does God really send this? Why would he do that?

Since today we are disciple according to All Scripture = Holy Bible. perfect and thorough for every good works.

Especially our covenant given and made by GOD is the New Testament, we will recognize them by their 'fruit'.

2 John 1:
9. Whosoever transgresseth, and abide not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not GOD. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the FATHER and the Son.
10. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house (even church), neither bid him GOD speed:
11. For he that biddeth him GOD speed is partaker of his evil deeds.


Shalom in the name of Messiah Jesus

GOD sends the 'strong delusion' on that day to follow the anti-Christ whole heartedly carnally, even to receive the mark of the beast.

On that day they will never get a chance to see the Light and truth again, since the time of Gospel has ended.

GOD have given them ample of time to believe and come into the Light and truth.

Jesus disciple His church like this, and His word is 'active' and 'alive' today;

John 12:
35. Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the Light with you. Walk while ye have the Light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
36. While ye have Light, believe in the Light, that ye may be the children of Light. ...................................

The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements (Perennial Classics)​

Book Overview​

"Its theme is political fanaticism, with which it deals severely and brilliantly." --New YorkerThe famous bestseller with "concise insight into what drives the mind of the fanatic and the dynamics of a mass movement" (Wall Street Journal) by the legendary San Francisco longshoreman.A stevedore on the San Francisco docks in the 1940s, Eric Hoffer wrote philosophical treatises in his spare time while living in the railroad yards. The True Believer--the first and most famous of his books--was made into a bestseller when President Eisenhower cited it during one of the earliest television press conferences.Called a "brilliant and original inquiry" and "a genuine contribution to our social thought" by Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., this landmark in the field of social psychology is completely relevant and essential for understanding the world today as it delivers a visionary, highly provocative look into the mind of the fanatic and a penetrating study of how an individual becomes one. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Besides 2 Timothy 3: 16 & 17, All Scripture = Holy Bible, even 'twisting' it's doctrine and the scripture, they are 'lies' from the devil.
