Religious Deception

 

There is no precedent in the Bible for this kind of behavior. It looks deceptive to me.


I've been around the Christian religion my entire life.  I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior while my dad was a missionary to Central America. I found the message in the Bible pretty straightforward to my understanding. Let me tell the whole story as simply as I can from the Book.

God created beings with the freedom to do as they wished, similar to His angels. He desired to coexist with them in a world too wondrous for words. God cherished His creation and cautioned them against certain actions that would lead to separation from Him, as He is a perfect Spiritual Being. 

A defiant angel entered paradise and deceived the first humans into straying from the Creator's path. God promptly declared that He would redeem humanity by becoming a sinless man born of a woman in the future. This fully God fully man Savior would defeat the angel.

And so, a war ensued to prevent the birth of this divine being. This high-ranking angel persuaded some of his subordinates to wed humans, resulting in tainted offspring. God was deeply grieved by the actions of these angels and humans.

Yet, there was hope. He discovered a man and his family who remained fully human. The man also followed God's ways. Thus, He commanded them to construct a vast vessel to save themselves and chosen animals from the impending annihilation of all terrestrial life by water.

After the destruction of all mankind except the preserved ones, God observed a nomadic man who adhered to His principles. He selected this man to establish a great nation, from which the God-Man would emerge to return the world to its pristine state. Meanwhile, the rogue angel continued to assail this man and his descendants, aiming to thwart the arrival of this flawless Redeemer of Humanity. It seemed the angel had triumphed when the nation was subjugated by other malevolent nations for straying from God's path. Yet, even in bondage, God's love and protection endured.

As time went on, the chosen nation remained under the control of another powerful evil empire. Yet, in accordance with divine timing, God's only son was born to a virtuous teenager and her betrothed who loved God, destined to deliver His people. However, God's chosen nation was perplexed by His deeds and misunderstood the messages that foretold His arrival. His appearance was unassuming, and His associates were not those expected of a divine being. Consequently, they rejected and executed Him, accusing Him of deceit. The defiant angel believed he had triumphed over God.

Unbeknownst to the narrowminded angel, from the outset, the Creator devised a plan to rescue the world from death. His Son, having fulfilled all tasks flawlessly, offered salvation to all who would embrace His sacrifice, bridging the gap that had distanced humanity from God. He lawfully resurrected His Son, signifying His power to resurrect all people on earth. His desire is for everyone to love Him as their Creator and Savior and to adhere to His teachings of their own free will. 

Nevertheless, humanity retains the capacity to make choices that diverge from God's path. Therefore, He instructed His disciples to spread the word about who He is and His deeds. He promised to send His Spirit, known as the Helper. He announced His return to His Father's abode, to remain until the chosen nation from the nomadic man calls for Him. Regrettably, they still reject Him to this day. Consequently, His message has been embraced by peoples of other nations who accept the God-Man, His teachings, and His atonement for our imperfections.

How did I do?  If confused on any part, ask me in the comments.

It seems straightforward, doesn't it? I learned from those who teach the message about what occurred and how it will all conclude as the world deteriorates both morally and physically. I yearn to return to the pristine world alongside my loving God and to adhere to His ways. Mankind's paths have brought us to this bewildering and terrifying world. Meanwhile, that angel is still in control of this world and continues to deceive everyone, aided by the spirits of the departed Nephilim.

This is why there is so much deception surrounding Christianity to this day, and it is expected to increase significantly as the end of the age approaches.

The world is not without its deceivers, such as the man depicted above. He asserts that he has been granted supernatural powers by Jesus, which he can only demonstrate within the confines of a structure, surrounded by his followers. His claim that God will destroy me for writing this is a falsehood. This is not the portrayal of God in the Bible. Such a statement is a gross misinterpretation of scripture. As one of God's anointed myself, I do not have the authority to command God to eliminate others. In fact, that is why God raptured Elijah. This blog will explore the numerous deceptions that exist in the church today straightforward as I can.

The Bible conveys that Jesus desires us to emulate His earthly example. He embodied humility, gentleness, and an unassuming appearance. He performed ordinary labor to sustain himself. Jesus frequently posed questions to guide those around Him towards spiritual insights. He personified the scriptures. No act of love was too lowly for Him to perform. He consistently treated everyone with the same tender care. His healings were expressions of His compassion for humanity's flawed state. The only instance where He displayed anger and violence was when individuals engaged in spiritual manipulation for financial profit.

The question then becomes, how do we address the actions of those who claim to represent Jesus, arriving in impeccably tailored white suits, adorned with precious metals, and pushing sick individuals to the ground as a display of power?

Contrary to what movies suggest, specific locations are not inherently sacred to thwart the devil and his demons' mischief. The popularity of songs performed in these venues does not necessarily equate to theologically sound lyrics. The strange behaviors exhibited by malicious individuals in churches ought to be minimalized. Yet, these individuals receive financial support from those they mislead. Such theatrics resemble a magic show more than any biblical examples. In New Age terms, this is referred to as a transfer of energy.

Indeed, Jesus expressed frustration when asked to perform miracles on demand. He declared that the only sign He would provide for the Pharisees (a popular religious group of His time) was to remain in the tomb for three days and three nights, which is exactly what He did.

Thinking on deception, in the near future, a figure will emerge among the nations, a substitute Messiah, who will demonstrate grand displays of supernatural power. This individual will be a charismatic and intelligent politician, proposing solutions too intricate for present world leaders to comprehend. Remarkably, he will facilitate a temporary peace between Israel and its Muslim neighbors, outshining the popular man mentioned above.  

The elect Jews will believe this man is their long-awaited Messiah. This guy will be more like what they expected 2000 years ago. Not just an ordinary stone cutter. This man will be like Moses, Saul, David, Solomon, Elijah and a Marvel Superhero all wrapped up into one. They will wonder if there is anything he can't do. 

Does this ring a bell? Supernatural signs and wonders? It's questionable whether those who believe in the powers of the divine will be able to evade such global deceit. This charismatic approach seems to align well with Dominionism or Kingdom Now Theology. Undoubtedly, this individual could assist Christians in fulfilling the Seven Mountain Mandate.  The church once again can have power to control the governments and establish Christian Globalism.  Whoa!  

This perspective precisely explains why the Jews were unaware of the Messiah's first visitation.  When Jesus healed the sick out of compassion and love, people envisioned an unstoppable force, akin to an army of the living dead, that even Roman armies could not defeat. When Jesus calmed the storm, easing their fear of drowning, they perceived a leader capable of vanquishing Roman legions with the power of thunderstorms.

That's why Jesus called one of his closest friends, Peter, evil.  This line of thought was misguided and would likely lead to future suffering. Similarly, today's Christians may be misconceiving the Second Coming. They believe they can harness God's power to dominate the world for Christ, akin to the trickster mentioned earlier.

However, if anyone truly possesses such power, why are they not visiting St. Jude's Children's Hospital?  If people can indeed dictate to God what He must do, then why is there a need for a specific place and time with a large gathering?



Christ was a suffering servant and told us to emulate Him. He did not want to draw notice to Himself with miracles. One must significantly misinterpret the scriptures to formulate this doctrine of a power trip.

Furthermore, the evil one presented Jesus with the kingdoms of the world, and it was observed that He did not contest this claim. Indeed, this deceptive angel claims dominion over this realm, and it is not ours to take from him. Christ followers are the foreigners here. Our only recourse is to resist him by citing scripture, following our exemplar. Only God possesses the authority to reclaim the title deed to the earth. It would be a somber realization that we must overcome this Archangel for our Savior to return. 

The Bible is considered by most, God's greatest miracle bestowed upon us. Authored by over 40 individuals throughout many centuries, each text uniformly predicts the arrival of the Messiah and the subsequent return of this Redeemer of humankind. The scriptures also caution us against the deceivers who would disguise themselves as innocents to distort the holy writings and lead us astray.

I have earnestly warned my family about the dangers of the secular world, which is associated with malevolent forces. Yet, I failed to sufficiently alert them to the perils of religious deceit. In this blog, I will discuss the various traps I've observed. 

I'm tired and I've ruminated enough....
