God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds”
–Hebrews 1:1-2
There has been a great deal of chattering about the question “Are we in the last days?”
This has proved especially true when visiting various prophetic websites.
The Bible declares (in several different places) that the last days (also referred to as the “end times, last time or last times“) began during the ministry of Jesus Christ and were happening as the early Church developed during the First Century.
“Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”
–1John 2:18
Are we living in the last days?
Are we living in the end times?
Are we living in the last time(s)?
The answer is “YES!”
Actually, the answer is that the last days have been happening for almost the past 2000 years. The end times (last days) is the time period from the first coming of Jesus Christ until His return.
“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you”
–1Peter 1:18-20
DOES the reader believe we are in the last days?
HAS the reader ordered his life as if he is living in the last days?
IF not, there’s still time to repent, call on God and enter the kingdom of heaven.
“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
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.”
–Luke 17:26-27
The days before the return of Jesus Christ will resemble those days before the flood in many ways.
One of the similarities will be man’s total lack of concern over God’s warnings of the coming destruction of the wicked.
Before the flood, Noah warned for 120 years. He warned of the total destruction which was to come upon the earth to the wicked (also called ‘the foolish‘).
“And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.”
–Genesis 6:3
Yet, no one paid any attention to Noah’s warnings. In fact, Noah warnings failed to convince even ONE person of the coming destruction.
After 120 years of warnings, not one person heeded Noah: the only ones saved besides Noah were his wife and his sons and their wives.
A total of eight people.
“And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth. And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.”
–Genesis 7:6-7
So shall it be before the return of Jesus Christ to the earth.
All warnings of a biblical nature will be ignored.
Or laughed at.
Or replaced by the false warnings of man.
Though the biblical warnings will be universally ignored, ALL mankind will howl when they take place.
“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him.”
–Revelation 1:7
The men and women of the end times shall be “living their lives” right up until the very end.
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.”
–Luke 17:26-27, 30
HAS the reader exchanged the truth of God’s Word for the various deceptions of man?
WILL the reader be among the many who are completely taken by surprise?
THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and throw oneself at the mercy of the LORD.
“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.

The Alien/ET/UFO media chatter is one of the longest-running propaganda campaigns: about 70 years in total involving entertainment, news, business, government, science, education, popular culture.
In short, every tool at the command of the mystery of iniquity has been used in this important end times deception.
Alien life, ETs and UFOs are VERY important Corporate Media themes. It’s very important for the mystery of iniquity to indoctrinate mankind on these end times deceptions. As a necessary precursor to these deceptions are the foundational lies concerning “outer space.”
Which is why Big Media, Big Government, Big Entertainment, Big Science and all parts of the mystery of iniquity have churned out a steady, never-ending stream of information on aliens since the late 1940s.
One trick the Corporate Media uses to great effect: when a movie is released (The Martian), someone in the media writes AS IF the movie were a true story.
In this way, the media tempts readers to thoughtfully consider speculation and daydreams AS IF THEY WERE REALITY.
“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
After every round of the latest man-induced CHAOS!, many naturally are curious about where it all leads.
Ultimately, it all leads to the scene in Revelation 16:13-14,16 and Revelation 19:11-14,19.
“And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.”
Before we reach this scene, however there will be many plenty of twists and turns which the Bible documents in specific, minute detail.
But modern man (especially the modern American man) does not believe the Bible, so he will settle for whatever line of propaganda the lying Corporate Media offers.
The Book of Revelation (written about 2000 years ago) records the future events in great detail: the nations of the earth uniting into a one-world government; the deceiving of the whole world by the man of sin; the repressive police state crackdown on basic freedoms throughout the whole world; the climax of history when Jesus returns and the armies of the earth gather together to engage him in war.
It’s ironic that as these events unfold, any who take a wait-and-see attitude about salvation will not be able to make a choice at that time.
It will be too late: God is sending a strong delusion so that everyone who did not believe the truth will believe the lies and be damned.
“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.”
—2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
“Well, I don’t know if I believe the Bible, but I’ll wait and see how this all works out first.”
But it doesn’t work that way: by then, it will be too late.
SO: what will happen in the meantime, BEFORE those climactic events?
There will be more CHAOS!: Paris is only the latest episode. There’s much more planned and according to the Bible, the chaos is a certainty.
Future episodes will be worse and closer to home.
Want to know where we’re headed but willing to settle for a more secular account?
As we’ve advised for the last six or seven years: find yourself a good history of pre-World War II Germany. That seems to be the model for many of the most repressive, most inhuman features of what’s coming (as well as some of what’s already happened to date).
And like in Germany, when the Nazis were coming to power, everything will be perfectly legal.
AND it will be done in the name of “safety” or “making the country great again.”
AND like the Nazis, there will be a good, healthy dose of FEAR! to make the loss of liberty easier to swallow.
When the powers of darkness want to accomplish something, they always include FEAR! and plenty of CHAOS!
It will be at that point (in the aftermath of the fear and chaos) where the reader will be able to easily spot the mystery of iniquity‘s puppets. They will be the ones in the media crying “Quick! Do something! Don’t stand around thinking about! Do it NOW! Right NOW! We have to act today NOT tomorrow! Tomorrow’s too late!”
People are SO much easier to herd when they are scared.
This is where we’re headed, though most will not believe it.
In fact, the Bible says that man will not believe it WHILE IT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING. Instead of repenting and asking God for mercy, man will curse and blaspheme the Most High.
“And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.”
—Revelation 16:9
“And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.”
—Revelation 9:21
“And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.”
—Revelation 16:11
“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. ”

END TIMES DESTRUCTION: Only for the wicked and the lost.
“God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and is furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.”
—Nahum 1:2
Whenever war, financial collapse or any other catastrophic event looms on the horizon, people become very uneasy.
Apocalypse.
Armageddon.
End of days.
Last days.
End times.
A great many believe the end times are all gloom and doom.
Especially the ‘doom’ part.
And the Bible’s many, many descriptions of the end times are top-heavy with descriptions of the long-awaited (by believers) judgments of God upon a wicked and unbelieving world.
“For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.”
—Isaiah 13:10-11
So that’s the gist of it all: the end times are a time for the comeuppance of the wicked, sinful and lost.
For believers, the end times are a times of justice and final rewards.
The unbelieving world will be judged. In fact, all of the world (except a few) will be judged.
“…and the whole world lieth in wickedness.”
—1 John 5:19
The media, the churches, the entertainment industry and the prophecy-mongers ALL promote the idea that the end times mean destruction and doom; a time to be afraid.
And all of that is true: IF one is not saved.
IN FACT, wicked and deceived men will use fear to help herd the lost into their proper end times places.
But make no mistake: there will be destruction.
And the destruction will come on a day when people are just “trying to live their lives.”
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.”
—Luke 17:26-30
For the wicked and lost, the end times ARE a time of destruction and woe which comes upon the earth without warning (other than the last 4000 years of God warning the world through His Word).
“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.”
—1 Thessalonians 5:3
The times are so bad, wicked men howl when judgment (which they were deceitfully convinced would NEVER happen) finally arrives.
“Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.”
—Isaiah 13:6
And really, that is what it all comes down to: IF one is a believer, one has to face the perils of deceived men and their schemes.
And there will be perils: the Bible speaks of believers who lay down their lives for the testimony of Jesus. However, if one lays down their life for Jesus, they will be promoted out of this dying world and into a sure eternity.
BUT, IF one is a non-believer, one must not only face the perils of men (evil men often do not keep their word), BUT one must also face a sure eternity judged by a just and angry God.
EVEN (perhaps ESPECIALLY) if one does not believe what God’s Word declares must come to pass.
“And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.”
—Psalm 9:8
Are you a mocker and scoffer?
Are you concerned about the end times?
You don’t have to be.
Don’t gamble your eternity on the deceived words of men.
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3

Tens of Thousands of Army Troops deserting, Army barely prosecutes – One should develop a healthy skepticism upon seeing such a story in the Corporate Media. The basic instinct is to ask “Can this be true?” Instead, the reader should begin asking “Why would the Corporate Media print such a story? What is the purpose?”
IF readers understand that the news exists not to inform but to deceive and manipulate, then they may, by asking the right questions, obtain some truly newsworthy information.
Newest U.S. Stealth Fighter ’10 Years Behind’ Older Jets – Spending billions for a bust? Of course, this is 2014 America: a country that has been programmed to fail–just like it was “programmed to win” for the previous 60 years.

POLL: Americans feeling optimistic for 2015 – Excuse me, this is at least the fourth article over the last two days on the theme of “Hey! It’s America! Let the Good Times Roll!” Perhaps it’s just this writer, but the extreme optimism lately displayed in the Corporate Media has gone unobserved in real life. Yes, gasoline prices have temporarily retreated. Yet, how many Americans would have celebrated $2.30/gallon prices just seven years ago?
Gasoline prices will roar back with a vengeance soon enough to $5/gallon. Good-paying jobs continue to disappear while other traditional industry jobs (coal, power, natural gas) are threatened. Yes, Americans have lots of retirements and savings but, as the Depression showed, those could soon enough disappear overnight.
These happy-talk articles are reminiscent of Soviet-style economic propaganda. People would stand in long lines for a roll of toilet paper while the Soviet papers proclaimed such things as “Record economic activity!”
The Russian people were not fooled. One suspects neither will Americans.
Doomsday Guide – 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. And there is no end to those who will lie to them. America is full of such men and women.
“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 deceptive links to websites which claim to give the lowdown on the future.
“Give the people what they want. Give them the gift of lies.”
Tens of Thousands expected for funeral of slain police officer – Hmmmm….“Tens of thousands?!?” That’s a lot of police in one place. Throughout history, particular groups have congregated in force at particular times and seasons for reasons, both real and contrived. Is this one of those gatherings?
Three-Card monte scam artists return to midtown NYC – As if they had really left. Interesting piece that says that the scam artists “returned in force.” Throughout history, particular groups have congregated in force at particular times and seasons for reasons, both real and contrived. Is this one of those gatherings?
“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master.” “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do.
The “lame duck” label doesn’t fit Obama – The Corporate Media reinforces the narrative of the lame duck at every opportunity. The linked piece is one such example. Anything to convince readers that their votes really matter and that there really are two sides squaring off for leadership in Washington–instead of one team (THEM) squaring off against the voters (US).
“And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” –Luke 9:62
The More the Merrier – This short article has more narratives per square inch than most Corporate Media disinfo–and that’s saying a mouthful.
The GOP’s 2016 slate may be its most diverse ever – Just another Corporate Media writer laboring at making the homogenized offerings of Team THEM (Republicans and Democrats and Libertarians and Socialists at the national level of politics) seem like a real, honest-to-goodness choice. Readers may wish to check back in a few years to see how this wonderful GOP “Team of Diversity” fared.
CHARGE SOME: Paul’s instructions about false doctrine in his first epistle to Timothy
In his first epistle to Timothy Paul instructed Timothy to charge some that they teach no other doctrine in the church that was in Ephesus. False doctrine was rearing its ugly head through the proliferation of false teaching. This false doctrine, as is always the case, was in complete contradiction to the good doctrine that God has reserved for us in His Word, the Bible. After his exhortation to Timothy, Paul then gives examples of false doctrine and its deadly effects. Paul’s commandment to Timothy to charge some that they teach no other doctrine was rooted in love for the brethren and love for God.
3As I urged you when I went into Macedonia-remain in Ephesus that you may charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 4nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith. 5Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, 6from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk, 7desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm. 8But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully. 1 Timothy 1:3-8
Those who are in positions of leadership in the church must reject fables which cause disputes to occur between brethren rather than godly mutual edification. However, in recent history some “Christian” leaders have done the exact opposite. Their support of three recent films from Hollywood geared towards the “Christian” market reveals their duplicity in the faith. Each of these films was based upon fables, things that are made up, rather than the truth from the Scriptures. Some leaders within the “Christian” community promoted the pictures, encouraging “Christians” to pay to see these fallacious films. They actually joined in making merchandise of believers, sharing in the sins of others, something Paul warned Timothy against. These fables were not fabricated out of thin air; instead the premise for the films was taken from Scripture. Like these films, much of what is being promoted within the visible church today takes grains of truth from the Bible and then puffs them up, distorting them with the foolish beliefs, vain ideologies, worldly philosophies and devilish doctrines utilized to distort God’s Word and lead many astray. This promotion of fables leads to discord and disputes among the body, where faith and love are cast aside, along with the Word of God, and instead fleshly behavior reigns supreme. Those who try to warn others with the Word of God are castigated and spurned, being labeled haters, when the truth is those who hold to these fables are the dividers and haters, rejecting biblical faith and godly fellowship which centers around Jesus Christ and His Word and results in loving edification. At the other end of the continuum of false doctrine is the teaching of the law in the place of grace and love found in and through Christ Jesus.
5Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, 6from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk, 7desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm. 8But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully, 9knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,11according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust. 1 Timothy 1:5-11
Trying to know, love and serve God through the observance of the law is impossible. The law exposes our sin; the law is designed to show us our need for Christ and lead us to Him as we despair of ever being adequate to make ourselves worthy of the love of God and right in His sight. The law makes us feel guilty and alienated from God. It is only faith in Jesus Christ that makes us righteous in God’s sight. He is our righteousness. Those who try to resort to the law and use it to exhort others to godly living are placing a burden upon the hearts and lives of those they are enslaving with an instrument that is meant to condemn us because of indwelling sin.
“Those who exhort God’s children with the law are brutalizing them with an impossible obligation that can never be met by man. Jesus Christ sets us free from the law’s requirements and establishes us in His grace through faith.”
The law is good but we are slaves to sin and incapable of living lives pleasing to God since the law actually excites sin within us because of the depravity of our sin natures. Those who exhort God’s children with the law are brutalizing them with an impossible obligation that can never be met by man. Jesus Christ sets us free from the law’s requirements and establishes us in His grace through faith. He gives us the promised Holy Spirit and as we walk by faith in the power of the Spirit we faithfully please God and are not under the law. Self-righteousness through observance of the law feeds the flesh and brings condemnation. Instead walking in the Spirit and walking in love, which is a fruit of the Spirit, brings us out from under the law and then fulfills the heart and intent of the law. It is necessary to quote numerous Scripture to endorse the biblical doctrine that I have written.
19Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. 20Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Romans 3:19-20
22But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. 26For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:22-26
4Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another-to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God. 5For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. 6But now that we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter. 7What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.” 8But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead. 9I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. 10And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. 11For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me. 12Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good. 13Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful. 14For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. Romans 7:4-14
1There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. 3For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin the flesh, 4that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1-4
30But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God-and righteousness and sanctification and redemption-31that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:21
16I say them: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to on another so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law. Galatians 5:16-18
For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. Galatians 6:8
8Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. Romans 13:8-10
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23
Legalistic law teaching is practiced within much of the visible church today; the homeschooling movement is especially prone to this error which causes much harm. Children reared under the tutelage of the law do not learn about the love of God given to them in Christ Jesus. They do not learn about the grace of God given to them in Christ Jesus. They serve a hard taskmaster that only grimaces at them and whips them as they fail, and fail they do for the invalid flesh fruitlessly fights to control sin through the law. Unabated flesh flourishes under legalistic teaching so that all manner of wickedness abounds. These are those who have a form of godliness but deny its power. We are to turn away from these false teachers who enslave others by the wrongful use of the law because they have no confidence in the victory over sin that is ours in Christ Jesus. (2 Timothy 3:5)
There is an abundance of those who endorse fables, teach legalism and listen to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. The apostasy within the visible church is deep and wide. The false doctrines that abound are too numerous to list, but they all originate from the father of lies, Satan. He deceives and leads astray. These heresies are whispered in the ears of those who are primed for deception because they do not love the truth, God’s Holy Word, the Bible. Instead they lust after the latest greatest thing that will cause a sensation and bring them a following.
1Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines o demons, 2speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; 5for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. 6If you instruct the brethren in these things, you will be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished in the words of faith and of the good doctrine which you have carefully followed. 7But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself toward godliness. 1 Timothy 4:1-7
Our protection against the onslaught of false teaching is to build ourselves up on our most holy faith by godly living and adherence to the truth, which is the Word of God. We can protect ourselves from the lies of the enemy by being informed through diligent study of God’s Word and rejection of teaching that doesn’t conform to the godly doctrine of the Scriptures. That means meticulous study of the Scriptures so that we understand the Word of God by the Holy Spirit and then can reject the lies, reprove the liars, and exhort all with the Holy Scriptures of God, including our own selves.
Those who teach lies reject the words of Jesus Christ and teach doctrine that is contrary to godly living. Instead their prideful, ignorant false teaching results in disputes, arguments, envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions and useless wranglings. They are in it for the money and care nothing for Christ or for His precious flock. This aptly depicts what is happening in many churches today and throughout the “Christian” community. What a sad and deplorable situation for those who claim to be believers in Jesus Christ. We must reject these false teachers and remove ourselves from their sphere of influence.
3If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, 4he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, 5useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself. 1 Timothy 6:3-5
Finally false teachers and false brethren falsely profess knowledge and so leave behind the faith they once professed. This knowledge can come from seminary, theological works, “Christian” seminars and conventions. This knowledge can come from the scientific community, the popular culture, the New Age, or any other information stream that teaches what is contrary to the Holy Scriptures. This false knowledge is foolish, rejects the truth and tries to place the ignorance of man over the wisdom of God found in the Bible. The end result will be the same no matter the source, falling from the faith that was once professed. Paul exhorts Timothy, and us, guard what is committed to our trust. Guard the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. Hold fast to sound doctrine! Cling to the Word of God! Cry out to God for His protection and deliverance! These are perilous times in which we live in. Truth is condemned as false; and falsehood is elevated as truth. This is happening within the visible church. Take care that no man deceives you! May God’s grace be with us to protect and guide us in these perilous times.
20O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge-21by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen. 1 Timothy 6:20-21
