Matthew 24:3   And as He sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign of Thy coming, and of the end of the world?"

     Then the ‘signs’ of the next verses in Matt. 24 continue as in (Mark 13 and Luke 21.) Now back to Mark 13.

The First and Second Seals of Revelation

Mark 13:5   And Jesus answering them began to say, "Take heed lest any man deceive you:

     This ‘deception’ is the main thing Christians are facing today. It is the ‘territory’ that the whole battle is about. In order to win in this ‘spiritual battle’ of ‘deception’, we must understand how we can be deceived. That’s why some man standing up claiming to teach God’s Word can be the biggest deceiver. If we don’t understand God’s Word for ourselves, how are we going to know if we are being lied to or not? That’s why I am against such slogans as "Just believe and you’ll be saved", or "All you’ve got to do is believe", and "once saved, always saved." And then they would teach that you don't really need to understand the Book of Revelation, and that The Old Testament was all history, and it's not necessary anymore. Who will these people be saved by; and from what, I ask? Will it be the first messiah that returns back to this earth? I hope not, because it is well documented in God’s Word that the first messiah that returns is Satan himself, playing in the role of Jesus, the position he has always coveted.

 Mark 13:

     Believing on Jesus as the only Begotten Son of God Who died on the cross for our salvation, Who also resurrected the third day, and being baptized in His Name is only one of the steps necessary in receiving God’s Truth to keep from being deceived. Notice I said "To keep from being deceived."  Am I saying you won't be saved if you believe on Christ as Saviour?  No. But by not knowing our Lord's teaching for us during these latter days, you may very well be deceived into worshipping the 'false messiah' who comes first. That is what the 'great apostasy', or 'a falling away' from the true worship of God through His Saviour Jesus Christ means;

 Do you go to a Church where all they do is play religion, never getting around to teaching the Word of God chapter by chapter and verse by verse?   A Church system cannot save anyone, but God’s Word is the only Salvation!   The deception is exceptionally strong and powerful, especially at this day and time. I implore you to check out the following verses for yourself if you don’t believe this can happen in the Churches today:
