Deception. That is the art of making one believe in what is not real. There are those who refuse to believe anything, except what they see with their own 2 eyes.. They will be deceived. There are those who refuse to believe anything, unless it can be scientifically proven. They too will be deceived.
But what about the great magicians and illusionists such as David Copperfield? Did he really make the Statue of Liberty disappear and reappear again, purely at his own will? Did he really walk right thru the Great Wall of China? Does he really make objects appear out of thin air? Does he really float above the audience with the greatest of ease? No. But he made it SEEM like he could accomplish those feats. If he could not make it SEEM like he could do those things, then he would not be the world-famous illusionist he is today, right? Even though we saw him perform these feats with our own eyes, our eyes have deceived us. That is a form deception. David Copperfield's shows and performances may be simple and innocent entertainment, but deception never-the less.
But there is another deception in the world. This form of deception is not so innocent, but yet many people will buy it and in doing so, will fall from God's favor and will find themselves imprisoned in Hell for all eternity. Lucifer will come to Earth and claim that he is God and many people will be deceived when he demonstrates his counterfeit "miracles" and "wonders". He will seek to deceive the world, even the "elect". He will make fire rain from the sky just as the prophet Elijah had done thousands of years ago. He will make rain pour down from a cloudless sky. Areas in Africa that have experienced famine and starvation for centuries will all of the sudden become the "breadbasket of the world". He will give idols and statues the power to walk around and speak. He will also do what no other politician or religious leader has ever been able to do. He will bring about a peace accord between Jews and Arabs. The entire world will ask, "Who is as great and wonderful as he? Who can be compared to he? Who can make war on one such as he"?
He will be adored, embraced, and admired by the entire world. He will perform his "miracles" in the full sight of the world. He wants to have an audience. He wants the world to witness the full extent of his powers. And they will. No doubt he will use the technology of TV and the Internet to broadcast his "miracles" around the world. The entire world will hail him as a "hero". The headlines of every newspaper in the world will be describing his latest "miracle", in full detail. The TV networks will be broadcasting his "miracles" around the world, live as it happens. Many will be deceived.
And those who believe only what they see for themselves will worship him as God, for he will have given them what they have demanded: Something to believe with their own eyes, because after all, seeing is believing, is it not? And the motto “seeing is believing” has been drilled into our heads ever since the 1st day of pre-school.
There are those who are more concerned with demanding proof of God's divine existence. They will be so taken in by Lucifer and his satanic “miracles” and his sinister charisma that they will willingly bow before him in worship. They are so concerned with demanding proof of God’s existence; they fail to see that proof has been provided with His Own Word.
Yes, he is Lucifer, the King of Sin, the Great Deceiver, and the Lord of Lies. Lucifer will attempt to abolish the Truth, while replacing the Truth with his lies and at the same time, declare his lies as the "higher truth". And many people will buy it. But it will get worse. Much worse. When Lucifer's world-wide tyranny is established, Christianity will be declared "outlawed" and an "illegal religion" much like it was during Ancient Rome and Lucifer will have a secret police force to enforce his religious laws and decrees. This police force will be so grand and elaborate that Stalin and Hitler would have been green with jealousy. This will be a very dark and dangerous time for Christians who are now outcasts of society. Lucifer knows that Christians will be a thorn in his side and is prepared to spare no expense to wipe out every last one of them. But this will happen and the followers of Lucifer will be so caught up in his lies, they will defend his lies to the death and will also attempt to kill those who do not believe the lies.
Just as it was during Ancient Rome, it will be a very grave and serious crime to be a Christian. To be a Christian will be the most unforgivable and serious of all offenses. Christians will be automatically found guilty, without as much as a trial or hearing. The laws of the land and basic human standards will not apply to the "criminal Christians" who dare put God above Lucifer. The condemned will have no legal rights and will have their possessions taken away, and some will be bought and sold as a slave, some will be sent to "education camps" (torture camps) some will be sent to prison, with no hope for parole. Some (the lucky ones) will be killed on the spot. These tactics are also the same ones employed by Ancient Romans used against the early Christians who dared to put God above their stone and golden idols and statues.
The police and government agencies of the world will be replaced by Lucifer's own agencies who have only one purpose: to subdue the world into kneeling before Lucifer and worshipping him as God. For a time (about 3 1/2 years), Lucifer's reign will be complete, total, and absolute and he will "lord over every land, flag and tongue". The remaining Christians who somehow managed to survive the extermination attempts of Lucifer will be under severe pressure to denounce God and serve Lucifer. If a Christian has any friends who have sworn loyalty to Lucifer, no doubt they will try to convince the Christians to do the same and for some people, peer pressure and the need to "fit in and by accepted by the crowd" can be almost un-bearable forms of pressure.
Lucifer will enforce his laws and decrees with the use of his own symbol. His mark. The 666 or Mark of the Beast will be the system that Lucifer will employ to control his followers. The mark will be a device that will be physically implanted into the receivers’ hand or forehead and it can be easily accessed with a scanner. Without the Mark of the Beast, one will not be able to work, buy or sell, or enjoy the comforts of life and his property will be confiscated and he will either be killed on the spot, or will be bought and sold as a slave, or may wind up in prison.
By rejecting the Mark of The Beast, a person reject's Lucifer's claim to be God. But, no matter how hard they may try to pressure you, you must remain true to the Holy Father and not accept Lucifer's Mark. When Lucifer makes the Mark of the Beast, a world-wide decree, it will be widely accepted, celebrated, and embraced around the world. It will be hailed as "the cool thing to do". It will be hailed as "the fashionable thing to do". It will be hailed as "the "in" thing to do". Those who refuse the Mark of The Beast will be viewed as "social outcasts" and "mentally unstable" and "traitors to Lucifer".
The Lord has promised that he will never forsake His children and will protect those who are faithful to Him. He will send painful plagues on those who have accepted the Mark of the Beast and those who have accepted Lucifer and his mark will be howling in misery, while those who are faithful to The Lord will be spared. Lucifer will tell the people that the Christians are the ones who were responsible for their misery and suffering and that they should go out and kill as many Christians as they possibly could. And they will. They will kill without mercy, regret, or remorse. Your once best friend will not have a second thought about killing you, because you are "one of them".
Christians will have no legal rights or legal recourse during this time because the all the courts and judicial systems of the world will be run by Lucifer and his global network. The crime-fighting news shows and documentaries we now see on TV, will be centered on capturing what's left of the "criminal Christians". Lucifer will spare no expense to do away with every last Christian and will use every one of his agencies and officers to attempt to accomplish that goal. The police agencies, all levels of government around the world, local and state governments, ect and the Courts of the world will all be controlled by Lucifer in his plans to exterminate Christians and to force the world to worship him as "God".
We are not there, just yet. But we are approaching at frightening speed. Maybe you have already noticed the Anti-Christian attitude that is taking shape in the world, even in America? Don't get me wrong, I am just as patriotic as the next person and love my country, but I cannot deny the facts. Our children cannot even mention God's name in school, without getting some kind of reprimand, but he can go to the school's library and engross himself with Dungeon and Dragons, read and study witchcraft and sorcery, the occult, and spend countless hours reading about Pagan gods and goddesses. Paganism itself is making a strong return to America under the "New Age" banner and is being welcomed with open arms and embraced in America's schools. It's the sign of the times that Christ warned us about.
Witchcraft and the occult are considered by many to be "respectable" as the "New Age Era" has gone "mainstream". Shows such as "Crossing Over With John Edwards" have become an instant hit with TV viewers as well as the network ratings, where the host (John Edwards) claim they have a "gift" of invoking the dead. And the success of "Crossing Over" has spawned several "copy-cat" shows with their own respective hosts also claim they can "invoke the dead". Not too mention the many "psychic lines" that are out there, each one claiming they can "see the future". All of them are seeking to cash in on the "New Age Craze" that is sweeping the world. But what people do not know about these type of shows and "psychic lines", is while they may be called different things, it reality it is a form of the occult. And their producers are selling the occult as "entertainment".
Today homosexuality and other immoral perversions are classified as "normal". Nowhere is this truer than Hollywood where homosexuality and other immorality are not just accepted. They're applauded, celebrated and honored. And at the same time, Christian values and morals are attacked as "old fashioned" and "out dated" and are told they have no place in the 21st Century.
Do you see it? Even today Congress is trying to justify why "In God We Trust" needs to be removed off the US Dollar and why any reference to His name needs to be removed off public documents, including the Constitution.
One cannot help but wonder how much longer before even God Himself is banned from America, and the world all-together. If you are asked the ultimate question how will YOU respond:
Whom do you serve? Do you serve God and His Laws or Lucifer and his decrees? Will you accept God, even if that makes you an "enemy of the state" and a "traitor to the governments" and be persecuted here, but go to Heaven later, or do you choose to follow Lucifer and his decrees and live a life of ease and comfort here and now, but be sent to Hell later?
I know that's a harsh question to ask of anybody, but the answer you give will determine where you will spend eternity.
