Will you Deny Him?

Let’s Set the Scene.

In the End Times, a man will come to power over a unified multi-national government and seemingly lead the world into a time of peace and prosperity. This man is the false messiah (Antichrist). After a time of war and economic collapse, he will accomplish, at least for a season, what no other ruler has managed to accomplish – global unity, prosperity and peace. A new golden age will seem to flow over a large part of the Earth. He will come to power at the beginning of the tribulation which is described in the Book of Daniel as the 70th week and establish himself as a true world ruler. During the first half of Antichrist’s seven-year reign, the inhabitants of Earth will live in relative harmony and follow the Antichrist worshipping and praising his accomplishments. Wealth will be redistributed across the globe to everyone. He will make a treaty with Israel for peace and shared wealth. This man will be able to manipulate people through elegant speech and flatteries. Jerusalem will be held under an international sharing agreement which results in the rebuilding of the Temple.

A second leader (False Prophet) will come to power under Satan’s approval and authority to deceive the world into combining worship under a unified religion. Each separate deity will be combined and represented as God. Anyone not willing to accept the unified religion will be labelled a racist and radical and will be arrested under the new international hate speech laws.

The first beast, known as the Antichrist, will not come claiming he is Satan. He will come acting like he is saviour and peace maker of the world. The second beast known as the False Prophet will suggest that the first beast is Messiah, the Messiah of God.

An attack on this false messiah delivers a wound, which results in his death. However miraculously he is resurrected. Any group not willing to accept this miracle will be labelled a radical group and will be detained.

Revelation 17:8 seems to indicate the Antichrist literally ascends from the bottomless pit, meaning he dies from the deadly wound he receives yet somehow rises again, counterfeiting the resurrection of Christ.

The False Prophet will display what appears to be great miracles in the sight of men.

Revelation 13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 14And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

Educated Christians will already know how this story ends and refuse to accept the false messiah. These Christian will be brought before the Synagogues of Satan.

Mark 13:9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. 10And the gospel must first be published among all nations. 11But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. 12Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.

Will You Deny Him?

If you are one of the Christians to the captured and chosen, you will be a martyr for Christ. The false prophet will order your death. Denying this testimony and Christ can not be forgiven.

Mark Of the Beast

Having deceived the world through his power, the False Prophet will command an image of the Antichrist be made for worship.

Revelation 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. 15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. 16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

 

From the original Greek.

666

The currency used on the earth will be made void and an issued credit card or new currency will be the only way to buy and sell.

Once Satan marks his own people, there is no repentance or salvation for them.

Revelation 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 11And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

Finally we see Jesus as the Reaper of his own people before the wrath of God is poured out on the World.

Revelation 14:14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. 15And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. 16And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

United States – Will You Deny Him?

Americans view Christian Persecution differently than the rest of the World. There is really no persecution possible with the protections provided by the constitution. Seventy percent of Americans identify themselves as Christians in some way or form. However, when you leave the United States, Christian persecution is on the rise. In Islamic countries, Christians are murdered, beaten, burned and imprisoned daily. Would the Christians of the United States deny Jesus if faced with death?

The United States holds the largest group of fundamentalist churches that teach pre-tribulation rapture doctrine.

If you had to go through the introduction years of the false messiah (Antichrist) and False Prophet before Jesus reaps you (Raptures)(Harpazo)(Catched Way), would you be able to testify before Satan as is described in Mark 13:9, Luke 21:12 and Matthew 24:9 and give your life as a martyr for Christ?

Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

 

Islam – Why do you persecute Him?

In the past, it used to be the case that Christians suffered greatest in communist countries. However, today Islamic fundamentalism has replaced communism as the number one cause of persecution against Christians.

Islamic fundamentalism takes the Qur’an literally and see the persecution as a duty:

From the Koran

9:5 “Fight and slay the pagans [Christians] wherever ye find them and seize them, confine them, and lie in wait for them in every place of ambush”

 

5:51 O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily God guideth not a people unjust.

5:72-73: They do blaspheme who say: “God is Christ the son of Mary.” But said Christ: “O Children of Israel! worship God, my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever joins other gods with God, – God will forbid him the garden, and the Fire will be his abode. There will for the wrongdoers be no one to help. They do blaspheme who say: God is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One God. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.

Conclusion

If you lived in an Islamic country would you be able to go through the daily persecution for Christ or would you deny Him? Since it is clear we are in the final days, will Americans today find the strength to go through persecution? There remains some in America with the backbone to overcome…
