God
Sends a Powerful Delusion
Paul is very specific
about the basis for the appearing of
the man of sin (the Antichrist). He
wrote: “For this reason God
sends them a powerful delusion.”
What reason is Paul referring to?
When a person rejects the Holy
Spirit’s strongest influence
that can be exerted within the soul
to submit to the will of God and
rejects the clearest evidences of
truth that God has set before him,
God can do nothing further to save
that person! This is amazing, so pay
attention to how this unfolds during
the Great Tribulation: The Holy
Spirit will be poured out on every
person, good and bad, (Joel 2:28)
stirring the soul of every person in
a manner never seen before. Further,
the global devastations of God’s
wrath (the first four trumpets of
Revelation 8) will cause everyone to
consider the presence of the Almighty
and the principles that govern His
Kingdom during a short period of
time. The 144,000 will clearly and
powerfully present the terms and
conditions of salvation. As Babylon
inflicts persecution, everyone will
be forced to make a decision to
either submit to God’s truth or
rebel against it. Unfortunately, most
of the world will reject the terms
and conditions of salvation, and will
crumble under the pressure of
persecution and side with Babylon.
This wholesale rebellion produces the
global rebellion that Paul predicts.
When God has done about all He can to
save souls, the Antichrist will be
released from the spiritual dungeon
to accomplish his heart’s
desire. God will allow the Antichrist
to have great miracle working powers
so that those who delight in
wickedness will quickly be deceived
and thus destroyed.
In conclusion, we
know that Jesus cannot come until:
1. 1,335
days AFTER the commencement of the
Great Tribulation and the opening of
the 4th seal and the
sealing of the 144,000.
2. The
gospel proclaimed to every nation,
tongue and people.
3. The
rebellion and falling away after the
final gospel message by the 144,000.
4. The man
of sin (Satan, the Antichrist)
revealed to all people on Earth.
Five things you can
do to prepare for the return of
Jesus:
1. Understand
God’s forthcoming actions
(patterns of former actions)
2. Unify
God’s forthcoming actions within
your belief system so that your faith
in God will not be destroyed when He
begins to destroy billions of people
living on Earth.
3. Know
the Lord. Worship Him in spirit and
truth. Study His Word and determine
in your heart to obey the light of
advancing truth.
4. Trust
in God. Surrender your will to
God’s will. Be will to go, to
be, and to do all that God would
have you to do.
5.
Show and tell. Introduce others to
God’s Word. Show them the book
of Daniel. Explain why we are living
at the time of the end.
