ARE YOU BEING DECEIVED?

We are living in an age of great deception.

It is an age where people prefer to believe a lie, rather the truth.
It is an age where people accept what was always wrong or evil as acceptable and right!
It is an age where people prefer to shut God, the Lord Jesus Christ, out of their lives.
It is an age where people ridicule the Holy Bible and all who believe it.

It is an age where the "deceiver", the "enemy", the evil one ... some of the many names for Satan, is running rampant deceiving the world (and regrettably many Christians and Church leaders too!) and leading people away from the Truth!

Why?   His time is running out fast AND it is in absolute line with what the Bible teaches us about the last days.

See what 2 Timothy 3:13 says:  "evildoers and imposters will go from bad to worse,
deceiving and deceiving others" (NIV)   "Sinful men and false teachers will go from bad to worse. They will lead others the wrong way and will be led the wrong way themselves" (NLV)    "deceiving and leading astray others and being deceived and led astray themselves" (Amplified Version).   This is referring to the last days ... the days we are living in.    

If we go back to the beginning of  2 Timothy 3, it describes so accurately the age we are living in and the dangers of the Last Days ... no doubt whatsoever!   Take a look at this:

"You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!"
Sounds very familiar ... very accurate indeed!
People throughout the world are being deceived day by day.   
This is happening because people no longer take note of God's Word, the Bible.  They scoff and mock people who do and who stick to sound Biblical principles.   People who wish to stick to what the Bible teaches are being "attacked" and "persecuted" because of their beliefs.   Losing their jobs, losing their businesses, treated like the "guilty party" ... it is all in keeping with God's Word and foretold about the the last days.
For the first time in the world's history, ALL the major players are on the stage of world history...  As someone recently said, "the final drama of planet earth has begun".   Right now, if you are willing to listen, one can "hear the thunderous hoof beats of the four horses of the apocalypse storming across the stage of human history ... bringing deception, wars, hunger and death on a scale so massive it staggers the mind".
In my next post I will go into more detail about the four horses of the apocalypse and how what they represent is unfolding before our very eyes ... yes it is!

But, as a brief introduction - we'll be looking at the White Horse and its rider - who is he? One thing I will say is that he is the master of deception and his workings can be seen on the front pages of global newspapers as we speak.  The Red Horse signifies war on a global scale, whilst the Black Horse depicts global famine on a scale you wouldn't begin to imagine.   The Pale Horse, the 4th Horse of the apocalypse, is something that is staring us in the face and the majority of people are being deceived by this - from World Leaders downwards.   

If you want to find out about these Horses and how relevant they are for us ... right now .... make sure you get my next blog post notification and sign up for it today.  I'll also provide some valuable links and resources.

In the meantime I feel absolutely constrained and driven to urge you to make sure that you are right with God.  Make sure you have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your own personal Saviour.   Don't wait.   The consequences are unthinkable.   

If you want to get to know Him as your Saviour, please contact me and I will help you to find peace with God and be ready for His Return which is drawing extremely close! 

Keep watch.   I'm longing for His return.  Are you?
