The problem I’ve run into is from Christians who claim that simply because someone is encouraging people to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, that means that their ministry is from God.
After all, the enemy would not encourage people to accept Christ, would he?
And those same folks do not accept that the enemy can perform miracles, hence when the miraculous is claimed to have happened, (which they always believe are true) it is evidence that God is validating the person’s ministry because they preach accepting Christ and it is endorsed by the miracles and healings that they see happen on TV. Therefore, the ministry is *bearing fruit*.
There’s just no reasoning with those people. They get angry and defensive when you point out the moral failings in the televangelists live or deem them of no consequence.
Right, MetMom.
The Bible tells us that the enemy will indeed perform “miracles” and signs and wonders. The deception is and will be very deep in these last days.
