How close
are we to the Rapture?
Will you count with me to 10? | Shechaim's News of the Day

As an ‘old
warrior with little to no superior knowledge of anything’ I still love to read
almost anything dealing with history, all religious books included.
As I
plunge forward on the back of ‘80 year on mother earth’ I have had an extremely
hard time reading with understanding in all religious books about every
religion in print on the net!
Until now?
So; as ‘my
close followers’ have noticed, I enjoy playing around with the 'modern' ‘trump
controlled'' religious politicians’ that are now enjoying ‘their power and your
money at I might include’, at your expense!
Because of
the disgusting outcome of a ‘First Impeachment’ of Lucifer’s little angle, and
the soon to be even more disgusting 2nd impeachment of the ‘Demon directly from
hell’ A came a pone a vast numbers of warning in the ‘Holy Book’ of those
(Notice the lack of capital letters),‘phony christians’
Care to
read what has been written in their book for centuries?
9 Even him, whose coming is after
the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
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.

1 Timothy 6:3-16 ESV - If anyone teaches a different ...
False
Teachers and the Love of Money
These
are the things you are to teach and insist on. 3If anyone teaches otherwise and
does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly
teaching, 4they are conceited and
understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and
quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil
suspicions 5and constant friction between
people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that
godliness is a means to financial gain.
6But godliness with contentment
is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into the
world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8But if we have food and
clothing, we will be content with that. 9Those
who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and
harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10For the love of money is a root
of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the
faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
Final
Charge to Timothy
11But you, man of God, flee from
all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and
gentleness. 12Fight the good fight of the
faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made
your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13In the sight of God, who gives
life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius
Pilate made the good confession, I charge you 14to keep this command without
spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which God will bring about in
his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of
lords, 16who alone is immortal and who
lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor
and might forever. Amen.
Jeremiah
32:39
And I will
give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me forever, for the good
of them, and of their children after them:
Then shall
I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments
Luke
10:40-43
But Martha
was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and
said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving
alone? Then tell her to help me.”
But the
Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered
about so many things;
but only one
thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken
away from her.”

Thessalonians 2:1 "Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ, and [by] our gathering together unto him,"
“Our
gathering together” is a reference to the Rapture
(1
Thess. 4:17).

2 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 1 KJV - KING JAMES BIBLE ONLINE
Verses
9-10: This “lawless one” will do mighty acts pointing to himself as supernaturally
empowered. His whole operation will be deceptive, luring the world to worship
him and be damned. The career of the coming lawless one is more fully described
(in Rev. 13:1-18).
2
Thessalonians 2:9 "[Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan
with all power and signs and lying wonders,"
“After”
(meaning “in accordance with”).
“The
working of Satan”: The antichrist is so energized by satanic power that he can
even counterfeit the signs of an apostle (2 Cor. 12:12).
In the
last lesson, we talked about this man of sin who would come in the end of the
age. We also saw, that even though he had great power, he was no match for the
Lord. The Lord will consume him with the Spirit of His mouth which is the Word
of God. He (the evil one), will be destroyed by the Light of the Lord.
You can
easily see from the verse above that he had some power, but it is overcome by
the power of the Lord. Many will be deceived, because they base their belief on
signs and wonders. We should base our belief on the Word of God, and then we
will not be deceived.
We learned
in Exodus that the evil magicians could do some of the miracles that Moses did
by the power of God, but they could not do all of them. We know then that their
power is limited.
2
Thessalonians 2:10 "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them
that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might
be saved."
“Them that
perish”: His influence is limited to deceiving the unsaved, who will believe
his lies (Matt. 24:24; John 8:41-44). They perish in the deception because of
Satan-imposed blindness to the truth of the saving gospel. (John 3:19-20; 2
Cor. 4:4).
(Greek
apollumi), means “the lost” or “the perishing.” These are lost because they did
not receive (Greek dechomai), the gospel. Contrast this with the Thessalonian
believers (in 1 Thess. 2:13).
We see
from this, that some will believe this deception. Just as Eve was deceived in
the garden, many will be deceived by this man of sin. Antichrist just means
against Christ. The Truth in the Word of God will set you free.
Try the
spirits, and see whether they be of God, or not. Any spirit that does not
elevate Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord is the anti-christ spirit.

Thessalonians 2:11 "And for this cause God shall send them strong
delusion, that they should believe a lie:"
“God shall
send them strong delusion”: shows that the judgment of God will already have
fallen on them (see Matt. 13:10-17 for a similar instance).
People who
prefer to love sin and lies rather than gospel truth will receive severe,
divine recompense, as do all sinners. God Himself will send judgment that
insures their fate in the form of a “deluding influence.” So that they continue
to believe what is false. They accept evil as good and a lie as the truth.
Thus, does God use Satan and Antichrist as His instruments of judgment.
Since they
are not interested in the Truth of God, they will fall for a lie. Temptation is
always around us to sin and to believe a lie. The protection we have is the
Truth of God. God sent the Truth to those who will accept Him. Those who
rejected Him will be sent strong delusion as punishment.
2
Thessalonians 2:12 "That they all might be damned who believed not the
truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
“Damned”:
As God has always judged willful rejection by giving men over to impurity and
degrading passions (Rom. 1:24-28). So in the last days, God will sovereignly
seal the fate of those who persist in following Satan and his counterfeit
Christ. As in all ages, those who habitually reject the truth are judged by
being left to the consequences of their sin.
I have
said over and over, we are a free agent. We can follow God and be saved, or we
can follow Satan and be doomed to hell. There are only two kinds of people
really, those who believe in Jesus Christ unto salvation, and those who do not
believe who are damned to hell. The flesh life will lead a person into
damnation. All unrighteousness is sin.
Those who
practice sin are not of God, they are of their father the devil. When we
believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, we are made righteous in the sight of God. We
are washed in the blood of the Lamb (Jesus), and put in right standing with
God. Those who reject Jesus, remain in their unrighteousness.
Verses
13-14 “Salvation … Sanctification”: Just as there were specific elements in the
character of the Antichrist (verses 10-12), so there are characteristics of the
saved. In these two verses, Paul swept through the features of salvation, noting
that believers are “beloved by the Lord,” chosen for salvation from eternity
past (Rev. 13:8; 17:8). Set apart from sin by the Spirit, and called to eternal
glory, i.e., the sharing of the very “glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Paul’s
main point in this section was to remind the Thessalonians that there was no
need to be agitated or troubled (verse 2), thinking they had missed the rapture
and thus were in the Day of the Lord judgment. They were destined for glory,
not judgment and would not be included with those deceived and judged in the
Day.
