2 Thessalonians 2:10 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
The church is still here and evil is growing worse and worse (2 Timothy 3:13). As we see in the scripture above, lies will be seen as truth because truth is hated. They turn from truth that leads to salvation because they love sinful pleasure.
Why is this taking place?
Because In 2 Thessalonians it says “God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:” and turn from the truth. I do not really understand this but you can clearly see this happening.
As evil thrives on tv shows, movies, commercials, activist groups, abortions, schools, church… the birth pains are getting stronger and stronger. One birth pain is weather which is becoming more violent and takes place almost everyday. Flooding is occurring everywhere, sinkholes are increasing, huge storms across the globe and especially earthquakes. California is having multiple earthquakes and just recently had two within 24 hours on, July 4 and July 5. God is warning but many are not taking heed to the warnings.
In “California Lawmakers Want to Control What Pastors Preach about LGBT Beliefs” They are pushing their belief onto everyone which includes believers. Folks it is here and persecution is slowly integrating into America. Before you know it this will be in full birth. Living His Word will continue to teach God’s Word without taking away or adding to it. Do we fully understand persecution, no because America has not seen true persecution like in China, Africa, India to name a few.
However, the article is correct stating “being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) is not a disease, disorder, illness, deficiency, or shortcoming.” What they fail to say is, this is sin in the eyes of God and churches in America are embracing this sin. In the article titled “PCUSA ‘Church’ Caretaker Dresses in Drag, Reads Story on ‘Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Flag’ During Service” we find a church in Ohio where someone was allowed to dress in drag and read a story about pride, politics and the rainbow. As this group pushes for everyone to accept their immorality children become the focal point. Church has always had its flaws but now not only is the school system corrupt you must be concerned about what your child is learning in church. There are very few biblically based churches even in America. Another recent article titled “School Proposes ‘Menstrual Equity for All Act’ to Make Tampons Available for Men“. They are placing female products in men’s bathrooms for men to use. What! I can understand if they placed these products for women to use in men’s bathrooms but that is not what the article says, it says “for men that apparently have periods too” Who in their right mind believes a male can have a period. They have no female parts.
Romans 1:28 KJV And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
We are watching what happens when God is removed and sinful mankind, who is ruled by Satan and his own sinful flesh, is no longer held to a moral standard higher than himself.
- I can not imagine what it will be like when the church is gone and the verse above along with many others begin to operate fully
- I can not imagine what it will be like when the blood bath starts of those who refuse to worship Satan and take his mark.
- I can not imagine what it will be like when God begins to send His wrath upon the earth in the form of war, famine, pestilence, crazy weather, hailstones, etc. (Revelation 6-19)
It will be so difficult
Luke 21:25 KJV And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
When God renews the earth it will be by such violent means that people will panic and live in fear of what is coming next. There will be death, chaos, and suffering. What we are witnessing is the beginning fulfillment of events that will lead to the 7 year Tribulation.
The delusions, calling good evil and evil good, the walking away from God, and trying to shut up those who teach the truth of God will come to a head one day soon, and Christ will call His church up to meet Him in the air and God will unleash all of hell on earth.
1 Thessalonians 4:14 KJV For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
I implore you to heed these warnings. What I am saying is foolish to those who are of the perishing (1 Corinthians 1:18). But it is not foolishness to everyone. There are those who will begin to see these warnings for what they are and will begin to seek the Truth, Jesus. I hope this is you and you become one of the “and such were some of you.”Jesus is coming, are you ready.
1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
