True, but have you seen American Gospel/Christ Alone on Netflix? SO GOOD! Talks about the prosperity Gospel and the greed and corruption within some of the worlds most famous...and richest...”preachers” and “evangelists”. Take Benny Hinn who performs “faith healings”. They are a shame. Then you have Kenneth Copeland who proclaims sending him money will make you weathier and such. Many others performing false healing in the streets and such. It’s here. Will only get worse I agree with you whole heartedly.
Paul talked about the grievous wolves that would creep in. Jude spoke of such people. Yet i think Christ was speaking of persons who were a magnitude more deceiving then even these present TV evangelist persons are.
I read of a young Indian Swami who was all the rage nearly a century ago who had caught a lot of Europe by storm with his philosophy, his assumed God like status, and he he had strange powers to read thoughts and do miracles. He was on a boat coming to America to spread his new religion to America. As the boat came into NY Harbor he was suddenly lost and acting confused and could do no miracles, readings, or other occult like tricks....he had to leave the country citing “atmospheric conditions” in America would not let him display his powers were there. The Christian relating the story suggests that God’s Holy Spirit countenance over America was still so strong that a Satanically empowered person as this Swami was, was suddenly reduced to idiocy as the demonic presence was bound inside him. The Swami was said to have quickly disappeared from public life after that.
That is type of influence I believe Jesus was speaking of in Matthew 24:24. The others you cite are pikers compared to what this Swami was and I think you’ll see more and more like this Swami person hitting America.
I reserve judgment on Benny Hinn. He got thoroughly criticized some years back by some major Evangelical organizations and to me it appeared that he took their discipline to heart and he preaches more of an orthodox balanced message. Don’t know what to make of the” miraculous” claims and baptisms of the Spirit so I won’t make a judgment until I know different. The money and flashy stuff is not a good sign however.
