The Gospel Of Convenience

Continued from page 1

It is this spirit in which this article is written, and for this purpose I believe God has inspired us to open this site, and to speak out inrepparttar name of Jesus to anyone that he may direct to this site. A "voice crying inrepparttar 144585 wilderness ofrepparttar 144586 internet" as it were, to anyone who will hear, and turn fromrepparttar 144587 deceitfulness of unrighteousness...  2 Thessalonians 2: 8-12 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whomrepparttar 144588 Lord shall consume withrepparttar 144589 spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy withrepparttar 144590 brightness of his coming.  Even him, whose coming is afterrepparttar 144591 working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received notrepparttar 144592 love ofrepparttar 144593 truth, that they might be saved.  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:  That they all might be damned who believed notrepparttar 144594 truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.   The context of this scripture, is ofrepparttar 144595 time ofrepparttar 144596 end ofrepparttar 144597 age, as Jesus is about to come, and it describes a state of affairs inrepparttar 144598 world and amongrepparttar 144599 people of our world andrepparttar 144600 work of Satan to deceive them, and lead them to destruction. Paul is discussingrepparttar 144601 time whenrepparttar 144602 one we know as Antichrist will appear onrepparttar 144603 earth, and will deceiverepparttar 144604 world, including as many ofrepparttar 144605 people of God as possible. I believe that as you read these words, this scripture is being fulfilled inrepparttar 144606 world today.

I think most Christians would agree, thatrepparttar 144607 deception spoken of byrepparttar 144608 Apostles, concerningrepparttar 144609 "Last Days", is deception that will be directed atrepparttar 144610 true believers of God's word, and in his Son Jesus Christ, not atrepparttar 144611 "world", asrepparttar 144612 world was already deceived, there is no need to bother with them. The evil one's target? I believerepparttar 144613 target can only berepparttar 144614 evangelical church of Jesus Christ. Therefore, I believe it is necessary to take a close look at howrepparttar 144615 Devil could possibly have worked a deception into that body of believers at this time, (we believerepparttar 144616 time ofrepparttar 144617 end). What is/are these deceptions, and how do they add up torepparttar 144618 "Strong Delusion" spoken of by Paul? They would have to berepparttar 144619 ones that our Lord warned us about throughout his entire ministry, #1,repparttar 144620 love of money, #2repparttar 144621 love of this world, and #3repparttar 144622 love of darkness.

COMMENTS:

We believe that a time has come whenrepparttar 144623 Devil, "as a roaring lion going about seeking whom he may devour" has resulted in a plethora of deceptions running freely in Christian doctrine today, and we can not help but speak out, soundrepparttar 144624 trumpet as it where, asrepparttar 144625 parable of "the watchman" commands us!

Revelations,A Study.Section 7.

Written by Rev.Anthony Smith


Continued from page 1
Rev 9:11 The king, Abaddon, Apollyon. The angel ofrepparttar bottomless pit. Satan.Abaddon: destroyer, John 8:44. The Hebrew in Job_31:12 and Pro_27:20, "destruction," orrepparttar 144334 place of destruction, sheol (Hebrew); Hades (Greek). The rabbis use Abaddon, from Psa_88:12 ("Shall Thy lovingkindness be declared in destruction?") (abaddon) asrepparttar 144335 second ofrepparttar 144336 seven names forrepparttar 144337 region ofrepparttar 144338 dead. In Rev_9:11 personified asrepparttar 144339 destroyer, Greek, apolluon, "the angel ofrepparttar 144340 bottomless pit," Satan is meant; for he is described in Rev_9:1 as "a star fallen from heaven unto earth, to whom was givenrepparttar 144341 key ofrepparttar 144342 bottomless pit"; and Rev_12:8-9,12: "Woe torepparttar 144343 inhabiters ofrepparttar 144344 earth, forrepparttar 144345 devil is come down." "He walketh about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour" The serpent-like stinging tails correspond to Mohammedanism.The giving of bothrepparttar 144346 Hebrew andrepparttar 144347 Greek name implies that he isrepparttar 144348 destroyer of both Hebrew and Gentiles alike.

This is literial. The sixth Trumpet, Many who do not understand symbolism userepparttar 144349 word “Horses” to try to make fun of Revelations. The word horse is symbolic of a means of transportation. The four angels[evil beings] inrepparttar 144350 great river Euphrates. These beings go to war against mankind for 396 days + 1 hour. Rev 9:16 thru 9:19 describerepparttar 144351 number of deamonic soldiers under their controll andrepparttar 144352 apperance andrepparttar 144353 number of man killed.[Outward aspect. phenomenon. A superficial aspect; a semblance.Outward indications] Rev 9:16 Andrepparttar 144354 number ofrepparttar 144355 army ofrepparttar 144356 horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heardrepparttar 144357 number of them. Modern warfare is descriptive ofrepparttar 144358 means of destruction in these verses. Rev 9:18 By these three wasrepparttar 144359 third part of men killed, byrepparttar 144360 fire, and byrepparttar 144361 smoke, and byrepparttar 144362 brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. Rev 9:19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. Rev 9:20 and 21, showrepparttar 144363 hardness of mans heart in this period of time. Andrepparttar 144364 rest ofrepparttar 144365 men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not ofrepparttar 144366 works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, wood. False Idols. A man can make and Idol out of anything from grass to money. Rev 9:21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. The Seventh Trumpet will be covered in chapter 11. end of section 7.
