End Time Delusions:

[Dan Johnson]

A friend of mine sent this to me and asked me what I thought about it. (Remember I Did Not Write This). lol
I wanted to sit down and do some studies on these scriptures. Hopefully some might even decide to join in on the conversation. I would love to hear other views than just me here. So Get involved.

Here is what it say.


End Time Delusions: According to bible, in the end times, expect widespread deception, counterfeit miracles, and the appearance of false prophets. Each of these evils will contribute to an atmosphere that will deceive an untold number of people throughout the world.  The Antichrist, possibly a charismatic Muslim with a fake Jesus as a sidekick, will convince his followers he is the answer to the world’s problems. Paul tells us that those who become caught in the Antichrist’s web of deceit will be guilty because they freely choose to enjoy evil while denying the truth.
 
END TIME SIGNS

1. False Bible teachers would be money hungry. They would be smooth talkers, have many followers, and slur the Christian faith (2 Peter 2:1-3) See Chapter here. http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=97.0

See some at: Fakemessiah.com

2. Homosexuality would be increasingly evident at the end of the age (2 Timothy 3:3)  See Chapter here. http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=98.msg512#msg512

(Don't now where they get Homosexual out of the Scripture other than maybe the attitude? But, it is part of it and I will show some verses on this as you scroll down.)

3. Earthquakes would be in diverse places (Matthew 24:7) See Chapter here. http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

4. Stress would be part of living (2 Timothy 3:1)  http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=98.msg512#msg512

5. Many wars would erupt (Matthew 24:6)   http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

6. People would forsake the Ten Commandments as a moral code, committing adultery, stealing, lying, and killing (Matthew 24:12)   http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

7. There would be a cold religious system, in denying God's power (2 Timothy 3:5)   http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=98.msg512#msg512

8. Men would substitute fantasy in place of Christian truth (2 Timothy 4:4). This is so evident at Christmas when the birth of the Savior is lost behind the myth of Santa Claus.

See Chapter here. http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=99.0

9. Deadly diseases would be prevalent (Matthew 24:7). The worldwide increase in AIDS deaths is almost inestimable. Over 160,000 Americans die of cancer each year.

See Chapter. http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

10. The fact that God once flooded the earth (the Noahic flood) would be denied (2 Peter 3:5-6). There is a mass of fossil evidence to prove this fact, yet it is flatly ignored by the scientific world because of its uncanny implication.

Peter 2:3 http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=100.0

11. The institution of marriage would be forsaken by many (1 Timothy 4:3)  http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=101.0

12. There would be an increase in famines (Matthew 24:7)  http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

13. Increase in vegetarianism would increase (1 Timothy 4:3-4)   http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=101.0

14. There would be a cry for peace (1 Thessalonians 5:3)

15. The possession of Jerusalem would be at the center of international turmoil (Zechariah 12:3)

16. Knowledge would increase (Daniel 12:4)

17. There would be hypocrites within the Church (Matthew 13:25-30)

18. There would be an increase of religious cults/false teachers (Matthew 24:11 & 24)  http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

19. The future would seem fearful to many (Luke 21:26)

20. Humanity would become materialistic (2 Timothy 3:4)

21. There would be many involved in travel (Daniel 12:4)

22. The Christian Gospel would be preached as a warning to all nations (Matthew 24:14)  http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

23. Jesus said Christians would be hated "for His name's sake" (Matthew 24:9)  http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=81.0

24: 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; 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.  (Luke 21:25-26).

25: Youth would become rebellious.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy (2 Timothy 3:2)

26: Men would mock the warning signs of the end of the age saying, "for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation." (2 Peter 3:4). The Bible even reveals their motivation, they love lust (verse 3). They fail to understand that a day to the Lord is as a thousand years to us. God is not subject to the time that He created. He can flick through time as we flick through the pages of a history book. The reason He seems to be silent, is because He is patiently waiting, not willing that any perish, but that all come to repentance.

I found this interesting, to the point that I wanted to do a full study on these Verses, and add more to them as I go along through this. Again, I am open to other views on this as well.
I will be adding to this shortly. As I prepare and get things together for this.

Any question about this so far. Just ask.

I want to touch base on this one first.

End Time Delusions: According to bible, in the end times, expect widespread deception, counterfeit miracles, and the appearance of false prophets. Each of these evils will contribute to an atmosphere that will deceive an untold number of people throughout the world.  The Antichrist, possibly a charismatic Muslim with a fake Jesus as a sidekick, will convince his followers he is the answer to the world’s problems. Paul tells us that those who become caught in the Antichrist’s web of deceit will be guilty because they freely choose to enjoy evil while denying the truth.

I saw this part of this post and got excited to start on this study. Whether or not the anti-christ is a muslim or not. I could not confirm that. But, after studying studying some more issues on current events and such. It almost seems to me that this would be the best type of subject to fit that role. Not because of the Religion but more on the belief system and hard force behind trying to destroy Israel. But don't take my word for it. We will get into that soon enough.

END TIME SIGNS

1. False Bible teachers would be money hungry. They would be smooth talkers, have many followers, and slur the Christian faith (2 Peter 2:1-3)

See Chapter here. http://sanctyfied.com/Vision/index.php?topic=97.0

I put a link here so that you can go and read the entire chapter yourselves. There is so much detail in this chapter I always feel it is better to read the whole thing.
But as a sample, I will add it.

2 Peter 2

But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.

And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed.

By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;

and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

As you continue on down this scripture it is very detailed on those who teach the scriptures and lead people away from God by the wrong things that they teach.
Just try to always remember. Church is not what saves you. The preacher is not who saves you. It is Jesus and Jesus alone. There is nobody that knows the Word of God any better than Him. He was there all times it was written.

This chapter is detailed in the punishments due to these type of people. It won't be taken lightly. Please if you can read the whole thing.

Don't  just rely on what I say. Read the Word of God yourself. You and you alone will stand one day and meet your maker by yourself. Being ignorant of it is not an excuse. If you have heard the Name of Jesus. You have heard and had a chance to know who He is. Jesus and what He died for is for your sins. When He rose from the dead. This alone made the impossible happen.  He now gets to bring all of God's kids home again. All you have to do get to know him. Ask forgiveness, Speak that you know Jesus is Lord and Savior. That He died for your sins and rose from the dead.

That is it. Let take over you sinful life. He is awesome at taking it over and cleaning it all up. Don't expect to be perfect. Your never gonna get there. lol Jesus is the only one that could. lol
