Do Not Be Deceived!

For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. (Genesis 3:5)

Satan’s first lie continues in many different forms to this very day.  If you have the time watch "The Age of Deceit," an excellent video that provides a comprehensive overview of the many ways that Satan has attempted — and continues to attempt — to deceive man and disqualify him from ruling and reigning with Christ Jesus in the Millennial Kingdom.   

If you are already familiar with these concepts it will be a review for you.  You may want to recommend the video to others in your community, particularly those who are being deceived by New Age doctrines.  But be prepared to be dismissed as a “fringe” believer.

When these truths were first presented to me, I was quite skeptical.  Despite being a church-going believer, I knew nothing about prophecy.  So I made it a priority to study Scripture and learn.  If you are new to prophecy, I urge you to do the same.  I pray that God will give you eyes to see and ears to hear.

After watching this video, I felt led to go to the Book of Jude.  It is such a small book, yet so rich with prophetic warnings:

Jesus will be denied as God, even within our own churches, as the tares (deceivers) have slipped in amongst the wheat.  Some of these tares are openly preaching that man can be as gods, just as Satan promised Eve.

For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. (Jude 4)

Those who remain steadfast in Christ Jesus and the Bible will be mocked and scorned:

But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. (Jude 17-18)

Jude 6 also speaks to the fallen angels who cohabitated with women in an attempt to corrupt the seed that would produce the Messiah (Genesis 6:4), which prompted God to cause the great flood:

And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

The video will show you how this is happening once again, just as Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:37:

But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

There is so much more, which is why the video is 2½ hours long.  As you watch, I hope you find strong comfort in the knowledge that everything that is happening has been foretold in Scripture.  While these events are incredibly evil, their emergence means that the Lord will be coming for us very soon.
