If you haven't accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior do so now.

Satanic Disinformation

One of the many weapons used in espionage in times of war and also cold wars, is to use disinformation and propaganda with the intention of having enemies spend time, money and human resources on:

  1. Activities that have no benefit, or
  2. Will distract the enemy from noticing the real intentions and targets. 

As one example of many, suppose there are two Countries "A" and "B" at war where Country "A" has a secret agent in the Country "B".

The solution to Country "B" 's problem is to put replies on the Blog Website that look like they are coming from Country "A" which has different contradictory instructions and false information to make the spy waste time on activities that are not helpful to Country "A".  Country "B" will make the counterfeit Blog Replies in a very careful way to still make the secret agent believe the Blog Replies are coming from Country "A".

Lucifer is the father of lies and used deception to have 1/3 of the angels follow him, then he used it on Eve in the Garden of Eden.  Lucifer, and those who follow him, are still using disinformation, lies and propaganda today to lead as many as they can away from God and the true salvation knowledge through Jesus Christ.

There are many religions and books, like the Book of Enoch, that are designed with this purpose of deception and disinformation.  The Book of Enoch contain some historical information which is true and then a great deal of disinformation with the purpose of having the reader believe something that is not true along with attacking the Character of God and our relationship with God.

John 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Revelation 12:4 His tail swept down a third of the stars (Angels) of heaven and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she bore her child he might devour it.

The Narrow Gate that only God's Children can Enter

It has been noted by several prominent Biblical Scholars, that the way to lead people away from the truth of the scriptures, is to present other ways to supposedly reach God.  The world has many religions that present themselves as being the truth and also have tenants that are admirable and worthy but the only religion in the world that states that mankind is incapable of reaching God by actions of their own is Christianity. 

When the great Patriarchs gathered to evaluate a document and see if it inspired and worthy of being in the canon, then we know that God participated, guided and guarded the process.  The proof is there when the 66 books of over 40 authors are harmonized along with encryptions being found by computer algorithms.

The Narrow Gate idiom:

Matthew 7:13-16 13 "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14 "For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it. 15 "Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 "You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they?
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Isaiah 28:10 For it is precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little.
Isaiah 28:13 Therefore the word of Yahweh will be to them precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, fall backward, be broken, be snared, and be taken.

When we are children of the God of the Bible through acceptance of Jesus Christ as our Savior, then we will show works that prove our status to ourselves and others.  Our Salvation is by Grace through acceptance and by nothing we do in our lives to work in earning Salvation, but the proof of our Salivation is works will be seen in our lives.

Romans 8:14-17 14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. 15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
John 3:16-18 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
James 2:17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.

No Other Way

Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy king cometh unto thee; he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Matthew 21:5 “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.’”

Many in Israel missed the prophetic date that their Messiah would present Himself "upon a colt" into Jerusalem, where the event was prophesized by Daniel the Prophet.  In Matthew 23:37-39, Jesus Christ laments over this and imparts to them that now left their house desolate.  We can feel Jesus Christ's emotion as he spoke that as a nation, since Israel did not recognize and believe all the signs, then collectively the nation would have "judicial blindness" but not forever.  Israel still has many beautiful prophetic prophecies that will be fulfilled and duties in our future and the Millennial Kingdom.

Matthew 23:37-39 37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! 38 "Behold, your house is being left to you desolate! 39 "For I say to you, from now on you will not see Me until you say, 'BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD!'"
Hosea 5:15 I will return again to my place, until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face, and in their distress earnestly seek me.
Matthew 24:24 For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.

God has always initiated the process of Faith that leads into desiring and obtaining Salvation, that included many of Israel during the time that Jesus Christ walked the Earth.  It is not possible for the elect of God to be deceived, Matthew 24:24, but there are those who should have recognized the events that pointed to Jesus Christ being the prophesied Messiah.  There were many in Israel and then the Gentiles who came to the Saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. 

Prior to Jesus Christ's appearance, those who were righteous in Faith, went to upper Sheol (bosom of Abraham) to await the payment on the Cross.  The purpose of the Tribulation Period is for Israel to recognize their Messiah and they will.

What to read next?

What is Salvation?  We have eternal life Evolution is not real.  When a Christian suffers is there benefits from it.  Rewards in Heaven.  Do we Tithe?  What does the 3rd Commandment tell us?  What is Grace and Mercy?  Is there an Age of Accountability?  Is there a place of unending punishment and exile form God?
