There is plenty of evidence in history and in the Bible that we will have to go through all of the troubled times before Christ comes. I think this was a visitation by the darkness pretending to be the light...he told her that the preachers need to preach the direct word of God...for heaven sakes, that is much of what is wrong with the church today. A whole lot of reading the bible and very little understanding and showing people how to be still and pray in a life changing way. Mostly a bunch of history and that is why we are in such a mess, or largely why. The devil will come as an angel of light...watch out for this one!
I understand the logic of your perspective.
In this case, I have a different perspective.
I appreciate your kind response.
