The reader has, no doubt, already seen in action one of Satan’s favorite strategies for the events of the end times.
The end times are a time of GREAT change.
SOME of these changes are necessary for the dragon (Satan) to put into place all of the pieces for his world-wide kingdom of the last days.
OTHER changes are the result of God visiting His judgment on a lost and wicked world.
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
–1THESSALONIANS 5:3
ALL will be judged by their Creator.
“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.”
–Revelation 20:12
It is little wonder that modern man exhibits such UNBELIEF in the Word of God: the Word of God doesn’t have much pleasant to say about modern man.
“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”
–2TIMOTHY 3:1-5
And so, what else is Satan to do about the many GREAT changes which end times man sees happening with his very eyes?
Satan–that great liar–employs one of his favorite end times strategies to EXPLAIN AWAY these GREAT changes.
Satan convinces end times man–MOST end times men–that the many GREAT changes of the last days are NO BIG DEAL; that such changes have ALWAYS occurred; that there is nothing to see here; that all this has happened before, didn’t you know?
Even though God’s Word warns man that Satan is a deceiver and a liar, MOST end times men will believe Satan.
Even though end times man can see the GREAT changes taking place in front of his eyes, he will not see: he will, instead, believe the lying words of Satan.
“Nothing to see here. This has all occurred before. Study your history and you’ll know this.”
End times man is deceived.
That is one of the reasons he prefers the lies of Satan to the truth of God’s Word.
HAS the reader seen evidence of this happening in his life?
CAN the reader SEE many GREAT changes happening in his lifetime?
DOES the reader take note of these great changes?
OR, does the reader believe that these changes will change and that ‘things will get back to normal’?
It is not YET too late: there is still a little time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“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
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
