Approaching the Abyss?
Let’s also remind ourselves that it is abundantly clear from Scripture that prior to the Antichrist taking his position as final human world ruler over humanity, the world must become unified as one global government ruled by ten kings. Once the ten kings take their positions of rule each over a tenth part of the earth, then the Antichrist make his move to gain supremacy over the ten kings. This will put him in conflict with three where he will uproot them, leaving seven. Antichrist will become the eighth though in reality he will exercise supremacy over the seven. This is still future.
Difficult to Believe?
The Bible seems to take for granted the fact that giants existed before and after the great flood of Noah’s day. We don’t exactly know how giants existed after the Flood, but the Bible tells us they did (nephilim). We see this is the case because of what the Israelites found as they moved through and toward the Promised Land. They encountered giants at various points, whether it was Og, Goliath or some other large human/humanoid…
What They Taught Pt 1
Amillennialism and Replacement Theology are two schisms that have derailed a more literal understanding of Scripture. Amillennialism teaches that there is no literal 1,000 year reign of Jesus following the Tribulation. This, they say is too short of a time for Jesus to reign. So Amillennialists see Jesus’ first coming as the actual start of the Millennial Kingdom and His return to this earth will be the consummation of that reign. For Amillennialists, this 1,000 years is simply a figure of speech, but not necessarily an actual 1,000 year period.[2]
Dominating Our Lives
Sin corrupts and the more sin is obeyed, the greater loss of freedom and ability to seek God until a point of no return is reached. Because of the efforts of the fallen angels, the human genome was fully corrupted and irredeemable. We are quickly moving to a point in the future where the exact same situation will occur. Is there any reason to think that God would not send His wrath in the form of judgment because of it, as He did thousands of years ago during Noah’s day?
Daniel 6: Daniel Faces Lions
Daniel’s colleagues had to see him “violating” the statute before they could report it to the king. The fact that Daniel prayed with his window open signified his prayers were unhindered. Those against Daniel knew he would not alter his behavior and would be “guilty” of disobedience to Darius. Consider the testimony of Daniel to these pagans, yet their hostility toward Daniel kept them blind to spiritual truth. We can expect the world to react to us like this if we are living faithfully before God.
Mingled
I believe we are coming to a day – and probably very soon – when all of the evil and corruption that undergirds global society now, will rise to the top with the revelation of alien beings, who will tell us what they can do for us if we will simply follow their dictates. They will promise to eliminate the problems that exist throughout the earth. They will usher in some form of temporary peace. They will share technology designed to ensnare us to willingly submit to their leadership.
Unfolding Controversy
What is happening throughout the world is par for the course. It is due to the constant removal of God from His rightful place. As Paul notes, too many people today are “always learning” but never truly gaining the truth (v 7). Instead, they chase after error believing it to be truth. Then they dig their heels in when it’s shown from God’s Word they are wrong. They become condemnatory toward those who question their credibility. It is the quickest way for the Christian to become embroiled in sin and out of fellowship with God.
Hitler Would Be Proud
Essentially, Tucker calls the eugenicist today one who is motivated by a “genocidal spirit.” He further elaborates by simply stating that it is a demonic spirit because the goal is to harm and to kill. This is what Satan does. It is his overriding goal for humanity. Satan desires to kill us. Jesus called him a “murderer from the beginning” (John 8:44), because he prompted Cain to kill his brother Abel, due to jealousy.
Aliens, Demons and Rapture
But Satan has a huge problem. Before this can occur, something needs to happen. That problem is the fact that God’s Church, Christ’s Bride is in the way. Now, as I’ve also stated often, no one knows the exact day or time that the coming Tribulation will officially start. Stay away from those think they know. We only know the event that will kick that period of time off. We do not know on what particular calendar day it will occur until it does.
Early Church and Charismatic Error
Like all cults that eventually get so weird only the most diehard brainwashed members continue to stay with them in spite of their crazed beliefs, Montanus also got to a point where he made some seriously audacious claims. Fortunately, many Christians then fully rejected him then because of it. But his error came back almost 2,000 years later with the Azusa Street Revival, which began the modern Charismatic Movement in America in 1906. It morphed into several things over the decades with the latest version today being the New Apostolic Reformation.
