THE NEXT COSMIC DECEPTION
(January 5, 2017)
A cosmic deception is about to amaze the world, but it will not consist of a false doctrine or a new religious sect or some new atheist ideology or philosophy.
This deception will include global leadership backed by supernatural powers and abilities that will surpass the human imagination with signs, miracles and supernatural liars.
The Bible mentions this time period related to signs and supernatural miracles more than any other period that has existed in history, including the times of Jesus.
There is no doubt that the involvement of invisible evil powers will play a major role.
This great deception was prophesied by the Lord Jesus himself and his apostles, for several of his disciples came to him to ask him about the signs of his coming to the world, he replied:
"See that no one deceives you. Many will come in my name, and many will deceive, and many false prophets will arise and deceive many, and will do great signs and wonders, so that they will deceive even the elect "(Matthew 24: 4-5,11,24).
The apostle Paul also wrote about the deception that will come to the world:
"... iniquitous (speaking of the Antichrist) whose coming will be by the work of Satan, with great power, signs and lying wonders ... the Spirit clearly that in the last days some will depart from the faith listening to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons" (2 Thessalonians 2: 8-9, I Timothy 4: 1).
And finally, the apostle John reveals to us the main strategy of Satan, which is to deceive the whole world!
"And the great dragon was cast out, the ancient serpent, which is called the devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world" (Revelation 12: 9).
What kind of deception will Satan use to deceive even the elect (Christians) of God?
For obvious reasons this type of deception will be related to signs, miracles and supernatural prodigies, involving physical manifestations of satanic powers.
This alone means that the faculty of "discernment" (distinguishing between good and evil) in most Christians will be debilitated tremendously, anesthetized and cauterized consciousness.
What is the reason for this? For a lack of sound doctrine of the Word of God!
"Because they must be teachers after so long, they need to be taught the first rudiments of God's words, and they have reached the point where they need milk and not solid food.
But solid food is for those who have reached maturity, for those who by their use have their senses exercised in the DISCERNMENT BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL "(Hebrews 5: 12-14).
We live in a time when most Christians are being continually "miraculously" experiencing them, for in this way they are no longer living "by faith", but "by sight," with the need to be experiencing something Supernatural to demonstrate the power of God.
Of course God continues to heal sovereignly, but God does not seek to make a circus of his power or have to be publicly demonstrating his miracles.
This was exactly what happened with the generation of the times of Jesus, so he said:
"The evil and adulterous generation DEMAND sign, but a sign will not be given, but the sign of the prophet Jonah" (Matthew 12:39).
How many miracles did Jesus do and did not want to believe!
It was precisely when he did the greatest miracle of all: the resurrection of Lazarus (John 11), who on that very day planned to kill him!
The apostle Paul also wrote to the Jews who continued to seek miracles:
"For the Jews ask for signs ... but for the so-called Jews as well as Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God" (I Corinthians 1: 22-24).
In other words, the Christian no longer needs to be nourishing himself with miracles, but with the power of the Word of God, which is powerful to build us up, to sustain us and to guard us from all evil.
The resurrection of the Son of God has been and will be the greatest miracle in history and if it is not enough for us to believe in the power of God, it is because it has not dawned!
The "supernatural" now that God continues to do is the conversion of human souls, for this is the greatest miracle we can experience, since only God can change and transform the life of a lost human being.
Of course God will continue to perform miracles of healings sovereignly, but this belongs to His sovereign will and not by making Him our servant at will nor making public spectacles of His power.

God does not need anyone to check with miracles that ... He is God!
