King James Version
9 Even him, whose coming
is after the working of Satan
with all power and signs
and lying wonders,
Worried about aliens, and deception?
Don't know what to believe anymore?
Confused about conflicting news?
Is anyone saying the truth anymore?
What is one to believe?
It's really wonderful being born again.
You know what the world represents.
You are free of popular beliefs.
You do not hold man's findings, as truth.
You cannot be held hostage by unfounded fears.
You only look to the Triune GOD, for TRUTH.
In these end times, delusion, division, and deception are expected.
But we look to SPIRIT, and Scripture, to explain everything to us -- from GOD's laws, to JESUS' commands.
To everything from the past, present, and future.
Talk of aliens being demons rings true for us.
We know the difference between JESUS and Satan.
We know evil for what it is.
JESUS already told us:
Matthew 16:21-23
King James Version
21 From that time forth
began Jesus to shew unto his disciples,
how that he must go unto Jerusalem,
and suffer many things of the elders
and chief priests and scribes,
and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him,
and began to rebuke him, saying,
Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter,
Get thee behind me, Satan:
thou art an offence unto me:
for thou savourest not the things that be of God,
but those that be of men.
Matthew 24:4-5
King James Version
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them,
Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying,
I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Mark 13:21-22
King James Version
21 And then if any man shall say to you,
Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:
22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise,
and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce,
if it were possible, even the elect.
John 8:44
King James Version
44 Ye are of your father the devil,
and the lusts of your father ye will do.
He was a murderer from the beginning,
and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him.
When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own:
for he is a liar, and the father of it.
His apostles warned us:
2 Thessalonians 2:1-4
King James Version
2 Now we beseech you, brethren,
by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind,
or be troubled,
neither by spirit, nor by word,
nor by letter as from us,
as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means:
for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first,
and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself
above all that is called God, or that is worshipped;
so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God,
shewing himself that he is God.
1 John 2:18-20
King James Version
18 Little children, it is the last time:
and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come,
even now are there many antichrists;
whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us;
for if they had been of us, they would no doubt
have continued with us: but they went out,
that they might be made manifest
that they were not all of us.
20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One,
and ye know all things.
1 John 4:1-3
King James Version
4 Beloved, believe not every spirit,
but try the spirits whether they are of God:
because many false prophets
are gone out into the world.
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God:
Every spirit that confesseth
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God:
and this is that spirit of antichrist,
whereof ye have heard that it should come;
and even now already is it in the world.
1 John 4:4-6
King James Version
4 Ye are of God, little children,
and have overcome them:
because greater is he that is in you,
than he that is in the world.
5 They are of the world:
therefore speak they of the world,
and the world heareth them.
6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us;
he that is not of God heareth not us.
Hereby know we the spirit of truth,
and the spirit of error.
2 John 7
King James Version
7 For many deceivers are entered into the world,
who confess not that Jesus Christ
is come in the flesh.
This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
Revelation 13:11-18
King James Version
11 And I beheld another beast
coming up out of the earth;
and he had two horns like a lamb,
and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power
of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth
and them which dwell therein
to worship the first beast,
whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders,
so that he maketh fire come down from heaven
on the earth in the sight of men,
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.
15 And 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.
16 And 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:
17 And 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.
18 Here 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.
Heed what JESUS said in the comparisons below.
There is no "lukewarm" with GOD.
Revelation 3:15-16
King James Version
15 I know thy works,
that thou art neither cold nor hot:
I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm,
and neither cold nor hot,
I will spue thee out of my mouth.
GOD is steady, and consistent.
James 1:17
King James Version
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift
is from above, and cometh down
from the Father of lights,
with whom is no variableness,
neither shadow of turning.
It's either GOD or "mammon".
Matthew 6:24
King James Version
24 No man can serve two masters:
for either he will hate the one, and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
It's either "with the LORD", or against the LORD, as apostle Paul declares:
1 Corinthians 10:21
King James Version
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord,
and the cup of devils:
ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table,
and of the table of devils.
Ephesians 5:11-12
King James Version
11 And have no fellowship
with the unfruitful works of darkness,
but rather reprove them.
12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things
which are done of them in secret.
Scripture is sacred.
Our best friend in these chaotic times:
2 Timothy 3:16-17
King James Version
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect,
thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
SPIRIT is Teacher, and Enforcer, of GOD's Truth.
JESUS explains this clearly:
John 14:26
King James Version
26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost,
whom the Father will send in my name,
he shall teach you all things,
and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 15:26
King James Version
26 But when the Comforter is come,
whom I will send unto you from the Father,
even the Spirit of truth,
which proceedeth from the Father,
he shall testify of me:
John 16:8-11
King James Version
8 And when he is come,
he will reprove the world of sin,
and of righteousness,
and of judgment:
9 Of sin,
because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness,
because I go to my Father,
and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment,
because the prince of this world
is judged.
John 16:13-15
King James Version
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come,
he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself;
but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak:
and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine,
and shall shew it unto you.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine:
therefore said I, that he shall take of mine,
and shall shew it unto you.
The Bible is NOT a gospel of accommodation.
It is the NONNEGOTIABLE gospel.
GOD's TRUTH is in it.
It is all JESUS.
He is the WORD.
So, why would I worry about aliens, and deception?
SPIRIT, and Scripture, have already laid out what we ought to believe in.
Just JESUS.
The SON of GOD.
The WORD made FLESH.
We eagerly await His SECOND Coming.
Without JESUS, we're pretty much a useless bunch of branch.
John 15:5
King James Version
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches:
He that abideth in me, and I in him,
the same bringeth forth much fruit:
for without me ye can do nothing.
Peace, and victory, can only come THROUGH, and FROM JESUS.
John 14:27
King James Version
27 Peace I leave with you,
my peace I give unto you:
not as the world giveth, give I unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.
