The Word tells us that in the end times deception will be so rampant that, “…if it were possible, the very elect would be deceived.” Matthew 24:24. In Chapter 24, the Lord tells us that there will be false prophets, even false Christs—and many will follow them.
We are told that when it is proclaimed that Jesus is in our midst, we should not be gullible. We should not go after the great signs and lying wonders that these satanic imitators of Christ, these masters of deception, will perform.
In verses nine and ten, believers are warned that they shall be, “…hated of all nations for My name’s sake…many shall betray one another…false prophets shall rise…iniquity shall abound…” As the time of the antichrist (the man of lawlessness) draws closer, the rule of law shall be challenged and godly people shall be despised.
In I John 2:28, the beloved Apostle encourages people of faith with these words: “Dear Children, continue in Him so when He appears we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming.” We who name the glorious name of Jesus must stand fast in that holy, mighty name—even unto death, for in His name is eternal life.
