DECEPTIVE “CHRISTIAN” WEBSITES
When writing about the prophetic, there is a paradox. Many claim they want to know what the end times events will be.
BUT these same people do not want to believe the only source of truth: the Bible.
Because so much of what the Bible says make people uncomfortable, they search for those who will lie to them. They desire men and women who will lie to them. They do not want the hard truth of the Bible, they demand yarns, fables and fairy tales.
And there is no end of those who will lie to them. America is full of such men and women.
Instead of men who will stick to the Bible, American apostates have assembled a crew of cartoonish “End Times Experts” who construct non-biblical fairy tales for the enjoyment and entertainment of the lost.
However much they give lip service to “the truth,” church-goers want cunningly devised fables about the end times.
“For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.”
—2 Peter 1:16
In fact, end times pew-sitters demand their “apostles and prophets” lie to them.
“That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord: Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:”
So, here’s a list of links to deceptive websites which claim to give the lowdown on the future.
“Give the people what they want. Give them the gift of lies.“
NOTE: This is by no means an inclusive list of deceptive websites. Most of these sites appear to be UFO/paranormal-type centers of disinformation.
Those lists of “discernment ministries” posted at many websites? All of those could be added to the “Doomsday Guide.”
Those websites which provide handy-dandy charts and graphics detailing all of the pseudo-events in the end times? Add those to this list as well.
Lastly, all of the authors of the popular, Christian mass media? Throw those in as well.
Then the reader would have a good beginning to a list of the deceptive websites.
But only a beginning.
Of course, most won’t bother because they enjoy the lies and deception. The deception allows pew-sitters to remain comfortable with this world and the world’s winking at their sin. In fact, in the end times, the people inhabiting the churches will not stand for the truth.
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”
—2 Timothy 4:3-4

End Times Prophecy Report 
Jeremiah, this link was included at the main link (Doomsday Guide) as something some people believe about Antichrist. It shouldn’t be included as fables and untruths about the end of days:
http://www.ianpaisley.org/antichrist.asp
Whatever a Christian thinks about Paisley, historically it has been the testimony of those who died for refusing to participate in the Mass and be in submission to the Papacy/Rome, that Rome, the Papacy, was the seat of Antichrist. A dying testimony, especially before councils and kings, is of great weight. The Lord said that the Holy Spirit would give them the words to speak. They new Christ and Antichrist. I’d be cautious about including them in a list of things that can’t be trusted when their words were given them to speak during this confrontation.

Maria,
Thanks for the heads-up.
Yes, there are many who believe Ian Paisley did “God’s work.” However, Paisley preached and taught much that is contrary (or in addition) to God’s Word.
I’ll include one example. There are many others if one is willing to put a little time in searching.
“Baptism is a Sacrament wherein the washing with water in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, doth signify and seal our engrafting into Christ, and partaking of the benefits of the covenant of grace and our engagement to be the Lord’s.”
1- There is no such thing as a “sacrament.” That is a made-up concept from Rome itself.
2- Baptism does not seal the believer; The Holy Spirit does. [Ephesians 1:13]
Ian Paisley was a champion for all those who abhor the cult of Catholicism. However, presenting the twin false choices of Catholicism and Protestantism to those who are interested in Jesus Christ is right out of the devil’s playbook. Where did Protestantism originate? From Rome.
“A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.”
–Matthew 7:18
The prescription for a bad tree (Rome) is not to “reform” it. It is to cast it into the fire.
“Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.”
–Matthew 7:19
Paisley spent very little time sharing the gospel and an inordinate amount of time attacking Rome–which made him extremely popular in his native Northern Ireland. But worse, Paisley spent his life trying to convince any who would listen that they can obtain good fruit from a corrupt tree.
I think the link to Paisley is correct.
Yes, there are more egregious offenders, but who is the better deceiver: the over-the-top Benny Hinn or the railing-against-Rome-but-teaching-false-doctrines Ian Paisley?
That being said, again, thanks for the heads-up!
(I originally hadn’t noticed Paisley’s link.)

Jeremiah, my concern was with the fact that the belief that Rome is the seat of the Antichrist was listed in an index of links to “fables.” I did preface my comment with something like “whatever we think about Paisley.” I don’t know him well, and have been to the linked site once, to read about Galileo.
I’m interested in having Christians pay attention to the testimony of those who died for the Lord before and after the Reformation, and who understood who they were facing – Antichrist.
If Protestantism is Roman, are you saying that the Protestant missionaries who brought the Gospel to the nations were bearing bad fruit? This doesn’t make Biblical sense.
You focused on Paisley’s errors and Protestantism, but did not respond to what I said about the testimony of the martyrs.

Maria,
To be sure I understand what you are asking:
Are you questioning what Jesus said in Matthew 7:18-19 about bad trees and good fruit?
Are you questioning whether Rome is a good tree?
Are you questioning whether the Protestant Reformation came out of Catholicism?
Otherwise, it is VERY biblical.
I see many, many “ministries” today who claim to “bring the gospel to the nations.”
One of these is antichrist Joyce Meyer, who claims to “spread the gospel to millions each year.”
Another is antichrist Benny Hinn who asks for donations so he can “go into the world and spread the gospel.”
There are many others as well. All of them are claiming to spread the gospel to the world. 50 years from now (if the Lord tarries) another Maria may be asking another Jeremiah on that day’s equivalent to the Internet “Are you saying that Benny Hinn and Joyce Meyer who brought the Gospel to the nations were bearing bad fruit?”
Which is one reason I have to stand on Matthew 7:18-19.
Still, God uses the “foolishness of preaching” and the gospel to save the lost. One supposes He can use anyone to deliver His good news.
Since the conversation was about Ian Paisley, that’s where the focus was: Ian Paisley. (And the link linking Paisley with “fables” was what was in question.) Paisley was not a martyr.
There are martyrs who die for the testimony of Jesus Christ–and there are those who die for other causes/reasons. I’ve read quite the number of books (and listened to a number of DVDs) which attempt to call the deaths of various heretical cults “martyrs” in their struggles with Rome.
One such cult was the Albigenses. They were in not Christian by any means (e.g., believing that a ceremony called “the Consolation” removed all sin from the person involved. No repentance was involved.) But many call them “martyrs” in their struggles with Rome. The word “martyr” means “witness;” i.e., the ultimate witness of Jesus Christ is to offer one’s life. If one is not a Christian, one might offer one’s life for any number of noble reasons, but it would not make someone a martyr.
We can get into a discussion about whether Rome is the “seat of the antichrist”–an unbiblical notion, though many have tried to offer their personal interpretations to make it so. However, that is a topic which is wide enough to fill an article–and it will fill an article at some point.
Rome does have it’s part to play in the end times events. But Rome will play any different part in the end times than it has played for the last 1700 years: that of an arch deceiver.
Thank you once more for your thought-provoking comment.

Jeremiah,
I was thinking of people like William Carey the missionary, and other Protestants like him. I was thinking of the Waldenses and martyrs of the Reformation period. I realize that martyr means witness, and such people were. And no, I don’t deny the Lord’s teaching in Matthew about good trees and good fruit. Of course good trees bear good fruit – such as these missionaries and martyrs. How in the world could anyone put faithful men and women side by side with Meyer or Hinn, to make their case? You impugn everybody’s character.
You may want to look at older sources on the Albigenses. Like the Huguenots, their stories contained a lot that was political, but they died at Rome’s hand, these French Christians.
About your saying this:
“50 years from now (if the Lord tarries) another Maria may be asking another Jeremiah on that day’s equivalent to the Internet ‘Are you saying that Benny Hinn and Joyce Meyer who brought the Gospel to the nations were bearing bad fruit?'”
I would never do this. You smeared my character as a Christian, and you know this and God sees it. You elevated yourself and trashed me just to make a point. Jesus knows His own. On the day that we both stand before Him, each one (each Christian) will have their praise.
So it’s goodbye again. Not because you contradicted me but because you slandered me to make your unsubstantiated case, and the heart of what I was trying to show you by the grace of God.
You need to repent of slandering me and faithful Christians who came before you – you’ve lumped people all together on the premise that Protestantism was rotten from the beginning. You’re not the only Christian who ever lived.

Jeremiah, you need to apologize to me for saying that someone like me would support Joyce Meyer and Benny Hinn, in a future hypothetical situation. That’s slander – I’m not being indignant but saying what’s true.

Jeremiah I believe the comments made by gentle iconoclast are sincere I realize you think differently on this One thing I have learned by going to different blog sites is how differently believers see things Unfortunately, this difference can cause divisions and hurt feelings It is unfortunate that you referred the quote-indignation site as a response to someone who is obviously sincere I think you are very smart but you can be a little hard on others I like you but I know I could never stand up to your standards I as an outside observer, think the indignation quote thing was out of place She is obviously a believer with a tender heart (even towards you – me too) ajc

Ajc,
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and leave a comment.
I don’t believe that anyone questioned anyone else’s sincerity.
Actually, bad doctrine causes divisions.
Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
–Romans 16:17
Again, there is no quarrel over anyone’s sincerity.
I’m sorry, the indignation quote was made for exactly these situations: when someone takes offense and suddenly escalates the drama surrounding the comment. This is a pattern that’s become familiar (not necessarily with Maria) but it’s a pattern nonetheless.
This isn’t the first time. One suspects it won’t be the last.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

TO RECAP: Since readers may be confused by the comments wandering so afar from the content of the article, (which seems to happen from time to time) here’s a recap to remind all what the original article was about.
1- People SAY they want to know about the prophetic. But usually they only want to know more IF it conforms to their preconceived deceptions.
People are not interested in what the Word of God says.
In fact, many will talk about ANYTHING ELSE but what the Word of God declares.
2- Much of the deception is coming from the apostate church. Imposters and apostates desire to have their ears tickled.
3- In fact, the people in the churches desire that they be lied to. In America, there is no end of people who will lie to church-goers for a price. For the most part, these men and women are manning the pulpits in the deceptive end times churches.
4- A link to a group of links examining deception was provided and it was emphasized that this was only a beginning.
This is a synopsis of what the original article was about.
