before Satan comes. Which Messiah will they believe has come at this verse? Regretfully, they will believe the false one is the True Christ, because they have not studied our Father’s Word, but instead believed the traditions of man’s religious systems. What events will aid in the deception? Let’s continue to find out. Mark 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. These are the events. Satan and his little workers will be performing miracles in the sight of men to ‘seduce’ the elect, if it were possible;
Rev.13:1. And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
This word ‘seduce’ refers to that same spiritual deception technique of Satan, starting even back to the Garden of Eden, when he seduced Eve. Paul would say to the elect in...
2 Cor.11: Read All
...That the elect must present themselves to Jesus as ‘chaste virgins’, for fear that Satan would ‘seduce’ them as he did Eve. Be ready friend, for these false prophets will be given great spiritual powers by the false messiah in order to deceive. How do we stay in God’s Grace during that time? By staying awake in His Word, for He instructs us if we will only read and study it asking guidance from Him through His Son Jesus Christ. The sad part is that many who love the Lord will fall into the trap, and will also carry out orders by the false messiah and his leaders.
It’s these deceptions of many of God’s own children, which make this first ‘tribulation’ against God's elect.
This is also why many will wish to die when the True Messiah Christ comes after all this, for they will ‘be ashamed’ of their deception and their works against the elect.
Mark 13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. Be on guard! Take heed! Don’t be deceived! That’s what Jesus is saying here to the elect. Mark 13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, Mark: Verse 24 refers to the coming of the True Messiah, Jesus Christ. The words ‘after that tribulation’, refer to after the tribulation of Satan when Christ's return takes place. This is more proof that Satan is coming before Jesus. Let’s go to Luke 21 for a better ordered parallel: Luke 21:26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. |
