Satan will be this world's king and pretend savior. Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time." Wonder WHY people ignore what is actually foretold would be?
The events yet to come have not happened to the flesh inhabitants since the beginning of the world. Not since the days of creation has the devil been allowed to present himself as Savior, although he did demonstrate his method of operation when he thought he could tempt Christ. There has always been some type of war/conflict since the days of creation. And Christ said that wars and rumors of wars was not the end. Well if war is not the sign of the 'end', then that means that a 'peace', 'peace', 'peace' promise is the deception and a lie and signals the countdown to the return of Christ.
Jeremiah 6:14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of My People slightly, saying, 'Peace, peace;' when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush:
therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down," saith the LORD.
16 Thus saith the LORD, "Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, 'We will not walk therein.'
17 Also I set watchmen over you saying, 'Hearken to the sound of the trumpet.' But they said, 'We will not hearken.'
18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this People, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto MY words, nor to MY law, but rejected it....
Christ said the tribulation would be 'deception'!!! And the above warning is well under way.
>> “Not since the days of creation has the devil been allowed to present himself as Savior” <<
.
Not counting the pope?
>> “Christ said the tribulation would be ‘deception!’ <<
.
For those who delight in being deceived, but that happens every day.
