Doctrines of Devils

Doctrines of Devils - By Daymond Duck - http://raptureready.com/featured/duck/dd248.html

 

The apostle Paul said, "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils" (I Tim. 4:1).

 

The Holy Spirit has an important message especially for those who attend church: Pay attention. Be on guard.

 

When the last days of the Church are winding down on earth, many who call themselves Christians will abandon what the Bible says. They will depart from the Scriptures because they are allowing themselves to be led astray by satanic spirits espousing satanic doctrines.

 

Satan doesn't walk up to his victims in a red suit with a pitchfork in his hand. He has filled the atmosphere with demonic spirits that present themselves as ministers of righteousness (II Cor. 11:13-15).

 

They are cunning. They know who is vulnerable. They know how to lead people astray. And it is real. Few would deny that Satan tempted Jesus many times. This is important because the Church in the U.S. is in decline.

 

Articles about church members becoming inactive and churches closing their doors are becoming very common. There are more church closings than new churches openings. The percentage of U.S. citizens who have no affiliation with church is rising. And on and on it goes. Satan and his demons are very active.

 

Members of the Satanic Temple recently announced that they have opened their international headquarters in Salem Mass. Their website says, "The fact that we have a home in Salem is a testament to the progressive mentality of the people there, and the local government's support for plurality."

 

The Satanic Temple has now opened after school Satan Clubs in several states. A 2001 U.S. Supreme Court ruling allows them to do this.

 

It is well known that the re-creation of an arch at the Temple of Baal was recently and temporarily erected at City Hall Park in New York City. Baal worship led to God's destruction of Israel in Old Testament Times, but Roman Catholic Mayor Bill de Blasio thinks he has done a good deed.

 

Authorities in the Roman Catholic Church in Italy and the U.S. recently said there has been a "sharp rise in people dabbling in Satanism and the occult." According to them demonic possessions are rising and there is now an urgent need for more trained exorcists.

 

These authorities blamed the rise in Satanism and the occult on the direct activity of Satan and the decline in faith and values in the world.

 

The article about this is posted at: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/09/26/urgent-need-for-more-exorcists-as-increasing-number-of-people-da/

 

Here is the good news: This Satanism and the decline of the Church are two important signs that we are getting close to the Rapture.

 

On Sept. 28, 2016, christianpost.com posted an outstanding article on their website titled "Globalism Is Anti-Christ, Demonic, Theologians Argue."

 

The article is about globalism (world government) and a global value system (a world religion).

 

The author, Brandon Showalter, does an excellent job of pointing out the demonic aspects of globalism, its opposition to the kingdom of God and the danger of removing our borders.

 

The article points out that one of the candidates for Pres. of the U.S. opposes this demonic globalism and the other fully embraces it.

 

Many people don't seem to realize (is this strong delusion?), that the coming world government will be headed up by the Antichrist and he will be a Satan worshipper (Rev. 13:3-4). They don't seem to understand that demonic activity will lead to the battle of Armageddon (Rev. 16:13-4).

 

Anyway, one of the prophecies of the Tribulation period is a day of darkness and gloominess. Spiritual darkness is flooding down on the U.S. (Zeph. 1:15).  Please vote.
