In this time that we’re living in, we’ve seen men, women and children, locked up, hooked on and gravitating to the lifestyles and mindsets of their society and the world around them. They’re easily being led down the wrong road. They have been convinced to see that “do what you what to do, its fine with society.” We have seen lesbianism and homosexuality, run rampant, like it did with Sodom and Gomorrah. In so much that the very House of God is being overrun. The Bible says in the last days that people will say wrong is right, and right is wrong. We have seen our leaders let down the future generation. We have seen parents and leaders condoning living together, men and women living together out of the sanctity of marriage. Saying it is ok for teenagers to have premarital sex, don’t worry about marriage, just enjoy yourself, you are free to do that. We have seen it all over the world. This mindset too has also infiltrated the Body of Christ. In our local centers and Churches, in our local school systems, there is nobody standing up it seems anymore for those things the Bible says are right. We have seen devil worship, voodoo, we have seen witchcraft, we have seen the church of Satan risen and begin to flourish in this world today. They have even erected statues of Satan. The world is boldly stepping out on what they believe. I ask you, where are the men and women of God today?
2 Thessalonians 2:1-3
Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him 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. Let no man deceive you by any means:
This is letting you know that there will be multiple forms of deception that as a Child of God you will be dealing with. With the things happening in the world today, people are being deceived that what they are doing is ok with society, daring to say its ok with God.
2 Thessalonias 2:3-7
for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 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. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
If we correlate the 3rd verse and 7th verse: “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; For the mystery of iniquity doth already work:”
There is, the Bible says, a way that seems right to a man, woman, or child, but the result of that is the way of death. I notice that in the USA, people are caught up on semantics. They are caught up on someone else who is popular on the TV or Radio and they being to take their words, as words from God. Thereby, they begin to minister a thought pattern that is not conducive to their children, to their families and to their friends. Know this, this is taking place in the House of God as well. People are bringing up every kind of excuse there is as to why they can’t attend, why they won’t attend. Things like its too far. I don’t have any clothes. I don’t have any shoes. I don’t have any money. I don’t know anyone. Isn’t it amazing how we bring up so many different excuses when its only a benefit and not a detriment by coming and being in the House of God? People today “are caught up with having fun.” I can’t have fun. If I can’t have fun I don’t want to be a part of it. I ask you again, where are the people of God? Are you caught up in life situations, or worldly temptation? Does this world mean to you than your soul?
The problem that most people have in our society today as well is that they can’t let go of the past. They can’t let go of the memories. You must realize if you linger in the past, it will become your future. Why are people in the House of God fighting, complaining, accusing, hating their fellow sisters and brothers in the House of God? The Word of God tells us because they are desiring to possess and to have what their brothers or sisters own or possess. Where has the Church failed in that area? Have our leaders put more trust in themselves more than God? Have leaders put more trust in their stuff over God? I ask you again, where are the people of God?
2 Thessalonians 2:8-9
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
Satan has his own form of special effects. Because he will do whatever it takes to keep your eyes covered as in the world or as Children of God to delay you or turn you back. A lot of times what the people of God fail to remember is this: we’re not trying to beat Satan or fight him. He alreay lost when he came against God. He is a defeated foe. If you know that then you shouldn’t allow that to make you afraid. It should convience you to try to recover some of the damage that Satan and his demons has inflicted upon men, women and children. As people of God we have to restore men and women in our society, if they desire to be free from themselves.
2 Thessalonians 2:10
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
He’s going to deceive you if you turn a deaf ear to the truth. Every man woman and child knows the truth. It’s just we refuse to walk in it because it confines us. I can’t enjoy myself. I can’t do what I want to do. So I make up rules and lies so I can continue to walk in confusion.
2 Thessalonians 2:11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
You know what a strong delusion is? A strong deception. Its like sending them a fraudulent or subjective error.
2 Thessalonians 2:12
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
The time is coming that people are convinced that what they are doing is correct. You know that a man with a man or a woman with a woman wrong. So why so you continue to walk in that mess? Saying they can find happiness. This is a strong delusion. Then our government makes laws that if we mention it or talk about it you can go to court. What kind of thing is that? They are making laws that we should treat homosexuals as normal people, when they are not normal but abnormal. I put a challenge to all homosexual and lesbians. Procreation of a man and woman brings about a product, that is a living life that has a soul. Can a man and another man procreate? Or a Woman and another woman procreate? So anyone who comes and says that they are a family is lying, because their concept of a family has been widely misused. Then you begin to teach the next generation that it is ok. Knowing that if you put two women together on an island and tell them to prorate, come back in 2 years time wanting to see the population to increase. If you come back to that island that has not had influence from anyone else, you will not find any increase, and if anything, one of the woman may have died. So why is the church entertaining having gay pastors, lesbian bishops…why is the church even entertaining that when it is an abomination of God? He destroyed whole cities, burned them to the ashes because of the same mess that they are doing now all over the world. How do we have a government that is so off? Because they’ve been influenced by a Satantic belief system, which in that system its ok for men and men and women and women to be together. Because Satan know to stop humans from being born, he needs to flip the mind of men and woman, so that when they die, there is not life left behind. These people know they can’t have children, so the want to adopt children so they can quantify themselves as a family. There should be a law against homosexuals adopting children, because that same skewed mentality will be taught to that child. I say again where are the people of God?
Are you afraid to stand up for what you know is the truth? Are you afraid to stand up for the truth? Or you don’t want to offend or hurt someone else feelings? The Bible says that we’re going to be hated because we hold people accountable to their sin. If you want to be loved by the world, then you need to look where you are standing with God. If you believe in Him, how long halt you between 2 opinions? Do you serve God or society? If you are a Child of God you will offend somebody. They killed Christ on the cross because He kicked down the money changes and the thieves saying My house you’ve made a den of thieves. How will you want to go back with the Lord, when you love the world? We need not walk in our flesh. Who do you serve? You say you serve Christ, but you care about what they say about you. You see what happened to Lot’s wife, she turned back to look at Sodom and Gomorrah and was turned to a pillar of salt. The Bible tells us if salt looses its saltiness what use it is? To be trodden over by men. Its the same thing with sugar if it has no sweet taste what good is it? The Lord said if you are My child you will offend someone. If you are more concerned about what the world says about you, maybe you never left the world. Maybe in your mind or heart you are holding on to a memory of the world. If so, you need to go back to the alter, check yourself before you wreck yourself. There is a way that seems right to a man but the end thereof is the way of death.
2 Thessalonians 2: 13-15
But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
Never give up, never surrender is the the 15th verse is saying.
2 Thessalonians 2:16-17
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.
So God has already established you. He has given you a foundation, His grace, hope, His glory. So why look back over what has happened in the past, and make the past become your future? The Bible tells us no man having to put his hand on the plow and look backwards, because your plowing forward, you don’t look back. God wants us to look forward. Some of us need to break up that fallow ground in our lives, so that we could put a better foundation in our relationship with Christ, so that we will be able to stand in those times of trouble. We know that our hopes comes from God, and our lives are hidden in God. We need to have a better understanding of who He is in our life. Lean not to your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge God and He shall direct your path.
