Full article at: What If False Prophecy Is Unfolding In Israel? | World Events and the Bible
Today, we’re going to talk about false prophecy. What false prophecy? As I explained on Monday, we have some Christian leaders saying the events in Israel, the Israel-Gaza war marks the fulfillment of End Times prophecy, and that Jesus is returning soon. Millions of Christians are being told, Ezekiel 37 and 38, have, and are,…
Hi Brandon,
Personally, although I’m not rushing God…I pray for his timing to return, to be as soon as possible. What this world is turning into, leaves a lot to be desired and frankly is really weighing on me as it is for so many others. It’s getting harder and harder to find and focus on the positive things of this world, and frankly I am just getting tired and am ready to be with God, if he shall have me.
Welcome Rhonda,
You’re not alone. There are days when you can have peace and enjoy the Lord’s land we live on. Then there are days that the evilness just shines through.
I think that is why we are told to detach. We can’t change it, so why even tune in. He even gives a final warning, Rev 8:4, but many will ignore.
I feel bad for those who are good people but just don’t seem to want to get it.
On the other hand, it is hard to have empathy or sympathy for those who’s feet hit the floor every morning with the plan to hurt their fellow man. You just have to shake your head and laugh as the Lord does in Psalms 2.
Welcome! I too get to that point sometimes…but then I go back to the Word and remember “patience” and “long suffering”. Our Lord Savior had asked us to do that. I also think about “practicing faith”. These are the times that we need to put all our faith in Him…and we all need practice with that. Remember that with true faith in God, we know He is in control and all these things need to take place before His return. So He is giving us time to keep on practicing. It’s hard sometimes, but keep that faith in the forefront of your mind. HE is always there for comfort and for rest. God bless!!
For there shall arise false Christ’s, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders;
insomuch that, if it were possible they shall deceive the very elect. Mathew 24:24
Thank you very much for your reply. To be honest, all of what you stated is what gets me through each day. God bless you as well!
Me too! And actually replying to you helped me to remember those things as well - pretty cool how that works sometimes.
The way I see it, the 1st to appear will be satan with his angels. Jesus comes after with His MIGHTY Angels. Many will believe having been led astray. Ignore satans appearance, resist his temptations, proclaim his falsehood. We may not know the time when Christ returns, just know that the 1st one to appear is the Antichrist.
David, Reading Mathew 24:24 very carefully Christ tells us ‘If It Were Possible’ they shall deceive the very elect. It wont be possible to deceive Christs children. Those he knows and who know him. You can not loose that, ’ which you never had.
Brandon, I always enjoy the way you write. It is easy and fun to understand.
Thank You so much for this site,
God Bless, Chris
YES! I wholeheartedly agree. The scariest part is how satan knows how to appeal to PRIDE and all the misleading false teachers and doctrines of demons build up our egos making us think we are so special to God, there are no expectations from us. Lik the “everyone is a winner” dangerous approach at schools that promotes mediocrity, entitlement and a complete lack of motivation to discern apart from what the teacher “regurgitates” is truth to be learned without questioning. We are set up to fall for the neverending scams from birth. Conditioning us to fall for pride and seducing, misleading half truths.
Once God allows one to see the level of deception we wade in, it just can’t be unseen.
I agree with that the jews are not God’s chosen people, but that true believers in Jesus Christ are.
That said, I disagree that with your beginning statements and following conclusions. Why? Because 2 Thess 2:1-4 are not talking about Satan who you say is going to fool the world.
Those scriptures are talking about the Antichrist, the man of sin, the son of perdition. The Dragon, Satan is a separate entity from the beast ( the Antichrist)
The Antichrist is the “son” of Satan, you could say.
The Antichrist is not Satan. The Antichrist is the individual person who will be possessed with Apollyon’s spirit, that comes from the abyss. See Rev 9. It is he who does the works of Satan…ie false signs and wonders.
A lot get this mixed up, thinking it is actually Satan masquerading as the false messiah. But it’s the Beast, the Antichrist, the individual who does the false signs and wonders.
“ So they worshiped the dragon ( Satan) who gave authority to the beast. And they worshiped the beast….” Rev 13:4. See, it’s two different entities.
Just wanted to clarify that for you.
