Prophecy Update: Deception 10/24/19
I want to center this paper on all of the deception that is ravaging our nation. 2Thess.2:10 says, “and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved.” The context of this passage is that the deception happens in the end times at the time of the rise of antichrist. God teaches us that the world will believe all of the lies of Satan at that time. God will send them a deluding influence so that they will not believe the truth. (vs.11-12) Notice that God uses a very important phrase: ‘the love of the truth.’ To love the truth you need to believe that there is absolute truth that is objective and unchanging. This the world has rejected.
Likewise, God warns us in Col.2:8, “See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.” The deception and lies fostered on us are many but here is a few—global warming, you can choose your sex, transgenderism, open borders, global government, global economy, Trump colluded with Russia, no wait it was Ukraine, next its going to be little green men from Mars etc. etc.
The deception and lies of the press has brought on the phrase ‘fake news.’ To bring on all that Satan wants, he will have to lie and lie big lies so that people will go along with his fantasy that he is God over the earth. Ron Reagan Jr. believes the lies of the evil one. He did a commercial for the “Freedom from Religion Foundation” and said that our founding fathers intended to keep religion out of the government. This is the lie of the left about our founding. Then Ron Jr. said something horrifying —he said that as a lifelong atheist he was “not afraid of burning in hell.”
Contrast this with our Attorney Generals speech at Notre Dame. It was pro God and pro truth and the press ripped him for it. I read the speech and here are a few quotes: “Today, I would like to share some thoughts with you about religious liberty in America. It’s an important priority in this Administration and for this Department of Justice. We keep an eye out for cases or events around the country where states are misapplying the Establishment Clause in a way that discriminates against people of faith, or cases where states adopt laws that impinge upon the free exercise of religion. From the Founding Era onward, there was strong consensus about the centrality of religious liberty in the United States. The imperative of protecting religious freedom was not just a nod in the direction of piety. It reflects the Framers’ belief that religion was indispensable to sustaining our free system of government. In his renowned 1785 pamphlet, “Memorial and Remonstrance Against Religious Assessments,” James Madison described religious liberty as “a right towards men” but “a duty towards the Creator,” and a “duty….precedent both in order of time and degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society.” Unlike Ron Reagan, our Attorney General spoke about the need for religion and belief in God to restrain evil in our own hearts. He quoted Edmund Burke in his speech—this was amazing to me: “Edmund Burke summed up this point in his typically colorful language:
“Men are qualified for civil liberty, in exact proportion to their disposition to put chains upon their appetites…. Society cannot exist unless a controlling power be placed somewhere; and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters.”
Please read this speech it was in the tradition of Christian truth preached during the days of the American Revolution. In the words of Madison, “We have staked our future on the ability of each of us to govern ourselves…”
Here is where the left went nuts, when Barr said this: “Instead, social order must flow up from the people themselves – freely obeying the dictates of inwardly-possessed and commonly-shared moral values. And to control willful human beings, with an infinite capacity to rationalize, those moral values must rest on authority independent of men’s will – they must flow from a transcendent Supreme Being.” That’s right, we are a nation built on the foundation of people obeying God, getting our morals from His Word. Barr went on to explain, “First, it gives us the right rules to live by. The Founding generation were Christians. They believed that the Judeo-Christian moral system corresponds to the true nature of man. Those moral precepts start with the two great commandments – to Love God with your whole heart, soul, and mind; and to Love Thy Neighbor as Thyself.” Our attorney general was quoting Exodus and Deuteronomy—that had to make the New York Times go crazy.
Barr diagnosed our problem like this: “On the one hand, we have seen the steady erosion of our traditional Judeo-Christian moral system and a comprehensive effort to drive it from the public square. On the other hand, we see the growing ascendancy of secularism and the doctrine of moral relativism. By any honest assessment, the consequences of this moral upheaval have been grim.”
Well the deceptive Fake News attacked Barr for his speech which honored Christianity and Judeo Christian values—The Guardian said, ‘A threat to democracy’: William Barr’s speech on religious freedom alarms liberal Catholics”—The New Yorker said, “William Barr’s Wild Misreading of the First Amendment”—- The New Republic said, Bill Barr’s First Epistle to the Heathens —–The Washington Post said this, Is this Barr’s cry for help? “This appeared to be a tacit endorsement of theocracy.” It was typical of the left, to continue their assault on Christianity they claim that Barr was attacking the constitution. This is a quote that is like all of the other attacks on Barr: “Our nation’s chief law enforcement officer — the person ultimately responsible for ensuring equal treatment under the law — appears to be demonizing anyone who does not share his religious and political values.”
In just the case of one speech the left lost its mind and attacked Christians and Christianity. Make no mistake, this is also an attack on the Trump administration who sent out three officials to talk about the importance of our Christen heritage. But leave it to the New York Times to come up with the best leftist lie of the devil: “God Is Now Trump’s Co-Conspirator, Bigotry, both racial and religious, is the last refuge of a scoundrel.” This is rich coming from the same people who have lied and protected liars pushing the Russian hoax, Ukraine Hoax, and now the Barr hatred of the constitution. Telling the truth as Barr has, made the left react to defend evil! Barr finished his speech with this:
“I can assure you that, as long as I am Attorney General, the Department of Justice will be at the forefront of this effort, ready to fight for the most cherished of our liberties: the freedom to live according to our faith.” Thank God.
Everything we see in the world is leading to the rise of antichrist. “The New York Times has never been bashful about its liberal leanings, and its loathing of President Donald Trump is a theme that’s run through pretty much every word it’s published for years. So if the Gray Lady is sounding antsy these days about the current crop of Democratic candidates, liberals might start listening. After four Democratic debates, after the initial field has been culled to 16, with only 12 qualifying for the most recent debate, and only three months before real-life voters actual make the first choices in Iowa, influential party members are still looking for a candidate they can have confidence in, The Times reported.” They are panicked because they do not have someone who can beat Trump in the elections. Where will it lead?
As the fake news press and the left try to destroy the President, they also want to destroy Israel. Check out this headline from Elizabeth Warren: ELIZABETH WARREN SAYS THAT AS PRESIDENT SHE WILL ‘WITHHOLD AID TO ISRAEL’ UNLESS THEY AGREE TO GIVE UP JERUSALEM TO CREATE A TWO-STATE SOLUTION WITH PALESTINE.
Bill Wilson wrote a great piece on the impeachment proceedings. The same lies hitting the president are hitting Israel and Prime Minister Netanyahu. “The goal of the game is to remove the president from office using the most outrageous false claim. All television networks will carry the Impeachment Game live every day, all day, until the public demands removal of the President, or the ratings crash. Contestants are summoned to testify before the secret tribunal, knowing that everything they say will be twisted when it is leaked to the news media. The game slogan is from Matthew 24:4: “Take heed that no man deceives you.”
I think this was brilliant. The impeachment proceedings are being done in secret because that is what liars do. They hide in the darkness, they have to stay in the dark because of the greatness of the evil. Here is a headline that exposes the evil of secret proceedings: “Republicans storm ‘Soviet-style’ impeachment meeting. Complaining of a “Soviet-style process,” more than a dozen House Republicans stormed a closed-door meeting Wednesday where Democratic lawmakers were questioning a Defense Department official in the impeachment inquiry into President Trump.” Her testimony was hearsay—that is all they have.
Well I have run out of room to go into the other deceptive practices of the evil one today. God will not be mocked, whatever these people sow they will reap. The NBA will soon fulfill this law of God. They defended the Communist Chinese against the freedom fighters of Hong Kong. Here is a bunch of rich basketball players telling the slaves of communist China that their government is good to oppress them so that the NBA can get rich. WOW are there any men left in the NBA who actually will stand for truth, justice, and the American way? C.S. Lewis called men like this, “men without chests.” Pray that we as Christians can stand in the truth, it will set us free!
