The Great Delusion

2 Thess. 2:9-12
A little back ground on Thessalonians, the Church was founded in Thessalonica about A.D. 51 on Paul’s Second Missionary Journey (Acts 17:1-9). Since Paul’s first letter, the seeds of false doctrine had been sown among the Thessalonians, causing them to waver in their faith. Paul removes these destructive seeds and again plants the seeds of truth. He begins by commending believers on their faithfulness in the midst of persecution and encouraging them that present suffering would be repaid with future glory. So in the midst of persecution, and trials; stressful situations, just stay faithful. In this day and time, there are so many different forms of teaching, different Bibles, and different persuasive things to keep you from hearing, living, speaking the truth, from what you first heard when you got saved. Now, as time will have it, there are a lot of influences in our lives that may challenge our very faith in what we believe concerning our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Question what is Delusion?
De·lu·sion: noun
An idiosyncratic belief or impression that is firmly maintained despite being contradicted by what is generally accepted as reality or rational argument, typically a symptom of mental disorder.”The delusion of being watched”
synonyms: misapprehension, misconception, misunderstanding, mistake, error, misinterpretation, misconstruction, misbelief;
Pay attention to the fact that a delusion is the symptom of mental disorder. I hope your eyes have been opened by the meaning of the word delusion, and made things clearer of what this sermon will be talking about.
In this 21st century, this world is openly accepting the things of a demonic nature more than ever, which is totally against the Word of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. For example: accepting gay and lesbian lifestyles, in so much that our government is making laws for them to the point were they are getting a so called marriage license. Approving abortions, the rise of open devil worship, even opening satanic temples in major cities and countries around the world. The agenda for the elites of the world and their worship of Satan and the spread of the teaching of a one world government under Satan is the theme totally dominating the 21st century. Today even teenage promiscuity has run rampant through the world. Young teenagers running around like packs of dogs trying to impregnate any woman can, when they don’t know how to take care of themselves, let alone a child. Now the so called leaders of our society are keeping your mind preoccupied with TV, cell phones, tablets, gaming systems, sports, special interest news; For example, a people’s cat or dog or animals are make big headlines. Also the things that are plaguing our society and world. Also voting demagogue as in this country, arguing about whether you’re Democratic or republican when it doesn’t even matter because both are controlled by the same people. The World is attacking and Killing the true Christians who are remaining faithful to the Word of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Mean while what is the great delusion in the church? Well the first is this the Roman Catholic claiming to be the real Apostolic church which is a lie from the pits of hell. If you look at history they say the Roman Catholic Church was founded on Peter, that he visited and established the first Church in Rome. That is what the Vatican is siting on right now. Well that is a complete lie, because in actuality a lot of historians who have studied the Bible say there is not Scripture relating that Peter had ever been to Rome. The Roman Catholic Church has come up with their own histories to say that Peter came to Rome, he was run out of Rome, and before leaving he established the church. Now as far a I know Paul had established churches well before Peter did. The Church was first established in Antioch. Most people will not hear that statement or argument. They will say, “Well the Pope said,” but he has no ground to say anything. The Roman Catholic Church adopted by Pontius Maximus to take on the Babylonian Priesthood, which is the Pagan priesthood. Before they’d ever gotten to your area, you were already worshiping pagan gods. How is God going to allow His apostle to sit there and establish a church in a pagan structure? Not going to happen. The Catholic people like to take the statement “Well the Lord spoke to Peter and said upon this rock will I build my church.” But the Catholic Church was already established under the Roman government, a pagan government. It was never a church, it was established as a form of control for the people, and to bring money into the government. The Catholic Church was never a Christian Church. Constantine established the structure of the Roman Catholic Church to make sure it would flourish and bring in control of the populous. In the Babylonian Preiesthood, they had priests, popes, nuns, and these individuals were used to make sure that the people were bound to the government. You’d confess your faults to the priest, he kept record to hold against you when there was a matter of government approval that they wanted to pass down. They will hold what they had written in your confession, against you. It was never established to be a Christian Apostolic Church, based on the doctrine of the Apostles.
Another point of delusion is the Sabbath. The Sabbath is on Sunday, which is not true, it has never been on a Sunday. The Bible says 6 days shall you work and on the 7th you shall rest. As far as I know the 7th day is not Sunday, not to me as Pastor Catron. When you look at the truth of what happened, if you understand that if you change the day of the Lord and everyone goes with it to a Sunday, whomever changed it to that day says this: it gives me the power or divine authority to change God’s Word. That means you have all power of that day, God never said it, you did. So the Pope has established Sunday worship. How? Well the empire Constantine, to satisfy his pagan citizens who worshiped on Sunday or sun god worship, as he considered himself to be the spiritual leader of the nation, got with the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church and decided to make Sunday the national day of worship, not just for people who believe in Catholicism, but also pagans who could also worship with them, so that they could get more converts into the Catholic Church, that would help their financial pockets. The Pagans were still at home whether in their own place of worship or in the Catholic Church because it contains idol worship, deity worship and emperor worship. Catholicism means in general; they took different religious beliefs. Now, in this day and age, the Catholic Church is claiming to be the first Church established by Christ after He left. Did they forget about Paul and Timothy and go straight to Peter? There were bones found in Jerusalem in a sarcophagus with an inscription Simon Bar Jonah, stating that these were in fact Peter’s bones. The Roman Catholic Church later found a tomb with bones in it, under the Vatican, with no inscription, and tried to base their entire claim that these unknown bones were Peters, when they had been found in Jerusalem initially. Pope Benedict was embarrassed because they could not explain away that Peter’s tomb was found in Jerusalem. But the tomb under the Vatican which had no inscription was presumed to be Peters’. The purpose of it was to declare that they were God’s chosen Church, and its all one big lie. Knowing that the foundation of the Catholic Church is based on paganism, always has and always was. That is why they changed the day of Saturday worship to Sunday worship, because that gives the Pope divine authority over man to set himself up as the Vicar of Christ, here on Earth, giving him false authority over the church. Some have fallen for this belief that it’s right, when its all from the pits of hell. This is not to say that there are not believers who have been drawn in to that false faith because the Lord said in His word, I have sheep that are not of this fold. (John 10:16) We’re not to attack individuals of the Catholic Church, but we’re to expound to them clearly the true Word of God, but not to sit back and allow the Roman Catholic Church to dictate to the true people of God how they worship, where and who. We are to stand firm. The Bible tells us that we must be faithful, in spite of the circumstances we’re dealing with, just as the Thessalonials of Thessolnica had a seed that caused them to loose faith, believing in other things. Just like Paul, who had to go reignite the truth again, but he did not attack them, but commended them for being faithful. Commend the church who has been deceived greatly, commend them in believing, but expound on who God really is.
That great deception has spread worldwide in a lot of the Christian Churches, who are still worshiping on Sunday.
Ephesians 5:6-8

Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them. For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

Jeremiah 6:16

Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls…

The Bible says a great delusion. There are some people whom you can tell the truth to and show the truth too, but they will still not believe. When we look at the word delusion, the Lord will send a strong delusion on them because their soul is bent for hell. Whether family members, saints or friends, you have to let them go. You can’t make them believe something they don’t want to see. The Bible says everyone is right in their own eyes, and there is a way that seems right to a man, but the end are the ways of death (Proverbs 14:12). So you can’t waste your time trying to witness to someone who doesn’t want to hear or receive the truth. That word is hid from those who are lost. You can’t fix them. If they don’t want to hear, shake off the very dust of your feet as a testimony against them, and move to the next. Finally my brothers and sisters, stand strong in the Lord and the power of his might. Remain faithful and obedient unto death. Amen.
