A spirit is sweeping around the world. It is a very ugly spirit that is causing all kinds of negative repercussions. It is a spirit that rejects truth. The Bible predicted it for the end times. It is stated this way:
“…because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved. For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness” (2 Thess 2:10, NASB).
Lack of love for truth has become very obvious in society but especially in the news media in which half-truths and sometimes flat-out lies are being promoted. This is why the average person today has less faith in the news being reported. Many have simply stopped watching and listening to the major news networks. Deception is taking place on a massive scale.
The Bible also states that character issues would dominate people in the last days. “But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power…” (2 Tim 3:1-5).
The United States of America is not immune. The moral absolutes that were instilled in our founding fathers have held American society together for some 240 years and have held dictatorial governments at bay, but those values are being challenged and are collapsing. A generation has emerged that no longer embraces godly values and truths the United States was founded on. As a result, in the U.S. today, a political party can run on a platform of raising taxes, confiscating guns, embracing illegal immigration, having open borders, sanctuary cities, and among other things, murdering the unborn children. Nearly half of the people support this.
Our country is obviously sick! Our compromised educational system has helped bring us here, teaching situational ethics, no pledge of allegiance, political correctness, etc.
Jesus spoke about the days we are experiencing. In Luke 17, He said the days would come just before His return that would be just like the days of Noah. The Genesis record of the days before the flood of Noah reported that violence filled the whole earth. The rise in violence in our cities is then no surprise.
Is there any hope?
Yes, there is, but it is not in Republicans or Democrats. It is in a return to the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ! Better still, His physical return to this earth to establish peace, righteousness, and justice!
Don’t think for one moment that all is escaping the attention of God. He is watching.
Why is He seemingly hesitating to act?
Because the Bible says He is patient, waiting for all to come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).
God knows that “all” will not come to repentance, but He is at least giving them the chance.

Delusion leading to THE Strong Deulsion and the Antichrist
So, because of intra-church corruption, pedo priests still breathing air, tv preachers robbing their tv parishioners, the Tony Roberts, the Grace Meyers, the Jese Dduplantis’s, the Benny Hinns, the Pat Robertsons, and others, all causing folks who see the lies, leaving ‘the flock’, that is now called, ‘a spirit of delusion’?
You don’t have to look at the televangelists, Just look at what is going on in the United Methodist Church.
I don’t think we are in end times, but rather back in the mid to late 30s now.
China has replaced the Reich in nearly every aspect.
FDR has dementia in the White House and wants to turn us into Communism or Chinese vassals. Our flag officers rose to rank during Obama’s tenure, and are not interested in defending our Constitution, while the line soldiers are far more patriotic.
Putin acts as though he is Stalin.
Iran wants to be the Japan of WWII.
Israel waits to see....
Tick tock...
Where does it start? South China Sea? Taiwan? Iran?
The ‘for profit’ preachers do not change the Gospel truths. They will be more harshly judged. I can’t find in the Bible a reason for the Government being in charge of the education of the children. When it occurred in pagan lands: the rule was: bow to the Government authority.
Thanks for this article.
Bkmk
This has been happening for quite some time. We are seeing it fulfilled in a HUGE way in our day. One hand it’s very nerve racking to see it, but on the other hand we can say we are seeing Bible prophecy fulfilled before our eyes.
Just believe and ignore the morons
You can see Him in all. Flowers. Clouds. Rain. Trees. Fauna
Love thy neighbor. Let the evil fight with themselves
Now when they come for us however. Time for defense !

Amen
Great post.
There was a big ‘schism’ in the Methodist realm, that used the Mississippi River as the line of demarcation! That was in the 80’s.
It had to be in the bible, because it was Jimmy Carter that went through the process of creating The Department of Education, and you know how much of a christian he was, right?
Amen Brother. Those last days are upon us and we are witnesses to God’s Divine Truth.
2 Timothy 4:2-4
King James Version
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Paul would address this in Galatians 2:
4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man’s person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:
I think that was Pauls way 2,000 years ago to. Say, don’t feed the trolls.
1 Corinthians 14:
37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
Concerning Dispensations...
Romans 11:
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Concerning the Rapture, which is the Ressurection....
2 Corinthians 5:
5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
2 Corinthians 5:
5 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked
