You have that right...good comments Quix...but I do think we are going to see allot more of these as the time draws near. So much is invading our country now...people forget that when other nations come in droves they also bring their religion. Florida is having a time with the Haitians practicing Voo-Doo as well....it is going to get worse. Especially with so many who have no familiarity with God's word...they are ripe for deception.
LOL, you make it sound like the world has never seen this before. The first century church grew within the trade routes of the world, where people of all nations and cultures would come trade their wares. It was common for the cities to encourage their business by constructing religious buildings and statues in the fashion of their visitors. Even Paul, when strolling through the Agora observed that every god was worshipped, and just in case they missed one there was the temple for the "Unknown God" (Acts 17:23).
We are no where even close to those times. Please remember, history didn't begin the day you were born.
