END TIMES FAKERY
END TIMES DECEPTION
Most of what church-goers (and the world at large) knows about exorcism is not biblical and is made up from out of whole cloth.
Jesus warned of end times deception.
“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.”
–Matthew 24:4
Spiritual warfare in the end times is just as susceptible to deception as any other area of life.

Just as fake exorcists were common in the days of the early church, so they are now, in our own days.
Exorcists warn of danger of Oklahoma City black mass – There have been more deceptions foisted on people because of “exorcists” than all of the “black masses” in history.
“Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.”
—Acts 19:13-16
The false information concerning the demonic, evil spirits, casting out such entities and spiritual warfare in general comes from a rotten source: the enemy. Satan and his servants have much to gain and little to lose by deceiving the masses concerning these important spiritual matters.
Though this false information may come from the churches, various “ministries” and those who claim to be “men of god,” the reader can know it is false by comparing what these charlatans say with what is in God’s Word.
Though many may believe this to be merely interesting information, one never knows when practical uses for such information might be found.
Especially in the times in which we now live.

THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3
