Grow Up And Be The Church!
We have much to say about this, but it is hard to make it clear to you because you no longer try to understand.In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness.
Hebrews 5:11-13

For those who have, at some point, read the book of Revelation you realize that there will be a leader that rises up and the vast majority of the population will see him as a savior. It seems that the world will be in such a state of disarray that the vast majority of people will be ready to give up everything just to have the promise of safety and global stability (see the World Economic Forum agenda 2030). Christians know this entity as the Antichrist because although he seems to be a savior to the world’s problems, he will not stand for the things of God.
For centuries now, Christians have been keeping an eye out for an individual that appears to fit the description mentioned in the Bible about this false prophet (Matt 24:11-24; Rev. 19:20). What if, however, the Antichrist (man of lawlessness) is a group of people who represent a consortium of self-appointed world leaders who all have the spirit of the Antichrist? John tells us that the spirit of the Antichrist was already at work to deceive and destroy even in the first century (1John 4). Satan has had plenty of weak humans to practice on for the past two millennia.
What could be so catastrophic in the modern-day world that would cause the entire planet to come to its knees and look to one person, or entity to save them? Could it be a natural famine? Could it be global plague? In an age of sophisticated technology that has helped people to be more productive and time efficient, it is difficult to imagine a world-wide famine where the more productive countries, that would normally step up to help the less productive countries, would stop helping. We live in a day where medicine is readily available to prevent natural plagues. People are living longer and healthier lives because information about our bodies is taught at all levels around the world.
God’s people are told to seek wisdom (James 3) and to be wise as serpents and gentle as doves (Matt. 10:16). Jesus warned his disciples that everyone would be deceived by the enemy, except for the elect (Matt. 24). What does it look like to be wise and to be prudent about world events? Escaping the great deception has always concerned me and has caused me to be very cautious about what is going on around me in the world. We are told to seek wisdom (James 3). We are told not to fear (John 16:32-33). We are told that a great deception is coming (Matt. 24). Did you know that when you are in a state of fear and panic, you will be more prone to falling into a trap? Fear causes us to think irrationally and become reactive instead of proactive. The enemy will use any medium to deceive people and his biggest tool today is the media and fear. Are you aware that all of the big media companies around the world are owned and operated by only six corporations? Do you realize how easy it is to manipulate the masses in every language through media?
Beware they come in sheep’s clothing (Matt.7:15) and they seem to be very legitimate, but research shows otherwise. Test what you hear against cold hard facts, not what you are expected to believe. We are at war and the Church does not seem to be aware of the battle that rages all around us, but instead many of the local churches have joined forces with the enemy to deceive even its own people. Sadly, most of them are completely unaware of the mass deception and the part that they are taking in it.
Do not be deceived. Stop living in fear. Fear is not from God. Think about what you hear. Is it from God that there would be one plague after another? Is it from God that there would be food shortages in a day and age when food is plentiful? Is it from God that He would allow for the world to harmed by natural climate variations? These are manufactured dilemmas straight from the pit of hell and it is time that the Church rise up as one to speak Truth into this deceived and panic-ridden world. There is an agenda going on and the Church can no longer be silent. The Church should be the leader of truth not a fearful and willing participant in the lies that have been leading to death.
Choose life – Choose God.
